Father John A. Perricone on Muslims and Islam: "I first want to say what Aquinas were to say, we have to love them. They're made in the image and likeness of God. We have to hate their pernicious error. And not for one moment allow sentimentality to enter into that charity, that caritas. Yes, we love them because they are made in the image and likeness of God, but that love means that we what we must give them is the truth. St. Thomas says the greatest exercise of holy charity is to tell men the truth. ... Certainly, recognizing that where there is error, we have to identify it and we have to fight against it. And we have to martial every argument to protect Catholics from it. ... The teaching, the suggestion is that they are just as good as we are, and they are not. And Catholics should not be afraid of saying they are a false religion. And if they need any more proof, look at the scorching critique that St. Thomas gives of Mohammedism."

Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa reacts to Israeli forces profaning an image of Christ Crucified in Lebanon: "The Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land expresses its profound indignation and unreserved condemnation of the desecration of a representation of Jesus Chris Crucified by an Israeli soldier in a Lebanese village. This act constitutes a grave affront to the Christian faith and adds to other reported incidents of desecration of Christian symbols by IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon. It further reveals a disturbing failure in moral and human formation, wherein even the most elementary reverence for the sacred and for the dignity of others has been gravely compromised. The Assembly calls for immediate and decisive disciplinary action, a credible process of accountability, and clear assurances that such conduct will neither be tolerated nor repeated. Yet even in the face of such offense, the Cross remains unassailable in its meaning. As Saint Paul the Apostle declares, 'far be it from me to glory except in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ' (Gal 6:14). For believers, the Cross endures as a source of dignity, hope, and redemption, and as a summons to overcome violence through sacrificial love. It is precisely in this light that the Church continues to proclaim that true peace cannot be born of violence, but must remain, in the words of Pope Leo XIV, 'untamed... a peace that calls to 'put [the] sword back into its sheath.'" For this reason, the Assembly renews, with urgency, it's call to bring to an end the war that has tormented this region for far too long, and to embrace a path where peace is witnessed in restraint, dialogue, responsibility, and reverence for the sacred and for every human life." What do you think is appropriate disciplinary action for such an offense?

@SethDillon @MattWalshBlog What do you call threatening the extermination of an entire civilization if not a culture of death?

@MattWalshBlog That would make more sense. It's disgraceful that so many so-called conservatives are so singularly obsessed with one issue that they're making Trump and dispensational evangelicals the enemy — to the point where they'd rather see Democrats and their culture of death prevail.

If we’re going to have a conservative civil war, the dividing line should be those who believe in protecting and preserving marriage, the family, and unborn life vs those indifferent or opposed. You can’t be a conservative in any meaningful sense if you don’t want to conserve the bedrock of civilization itself.

Bishop Barron during his Sunday homily: "It's a basic truth that talking and walking are related. Meaning if you're walking the right way, you'll tend to talk the right way. You'll tend to act the right way. If you're heading toward Jerusalem, you'll get it right. You're heading away, you're going to get it wrong. Well, that's all of us most of the time, heading the wrong direction." How do you work to walk the right way and head toward Christ?

President Donald Trump claims that "Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HA NUCLEAR WEAPON, did." Do you believe him?

@GlobeEyeNews Very cool. This is a good sign for the church.

Pope Leo XIV is the most popular public figure in the United States, with a net favorability rating of +34.

After Iran re-closed the Strait, President Trump responds; “Unfortunately we’ll have to start dropping bombs again. Thank you, everyone. I think it’s going to happen.” Is this something that needs to happen?

@tedcruz It's not destroyed entirely, though, and we shouldn't be going around the world doing that anyway.

Iran has spent 40 years building its military. It took us 39 days to destroy it entirely.

@AFpost Oh jeez. What happened now?

After announcing that the US has failed to uphold its obligations, Iran has once again closed the Strait of Hormuz. Iran cited Trump refusing to end the US naval blockade of the waterway. Follow: @AFpost

@GlobeEyeNews is that actually happening?

BREAKING: Iran officially closes Strait of Hormuz.

@DMichaelTripi Wow, that's pretty wild and great.

NEW: Pope Leo XIV tested as the most popular public figure in the United States at net +34. -NBC

@Antunes1 I mean things are looking up to be honest.

🚨 Trump just posted this 🤡 What an absolute joke 😭

@WalmartThomist Amén.

“Ultimately, everything begins—and always returns—to a living and concrete relationship with the One who has chosen us without any merit on our part.” -Pope Leo XIV

@realstewpeters Oh man please make it stop

TRUMP: “Next we’re going to war with Cuba. Watch what happens.” I’m lost for words at this point.

@RapidResponse47 @POTUS @SecWar This should get interesting

.@POTUS: I recently directed @SecWar to begin releasing government files relating to UFOs and unexplained aerial phenomena. I am pleased to report this process is well underway. We've found many very interesting documents — and the first releases will begin very, very soon. 👽

@WhiteHouse It does appear to be getting better

A GREAT DAY FOR THE WORLD!

President Trump posts fresh attacks on Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly, and Alex Jones. Why do this ahead of the midterms?

@RealAlexJones This lashing out at allies needs to stop. What the heck is he doing?

🚨🚨This is my response to the new attack President Trump launched on myself and other sane America patriots today. The evidence is overwhelming President Trump is committing political suicide on purpose, and has made a deal to sabotage the midterms.. America is now under the control of a foreign government. Everyone needs to fly their flags upside down, because our nation is in distress!🚨🚨

@deusimpera Yeah that's based!

“The Catholic Church wants a One World Religion!” Exactly. Where’s the problem here?

@KaitMarieox It looks like it. Hope it holds!

Trump WON, and the left was wrong again 🇺🇸

@RpsAgainstTrump Yeah that's how it's going to be.

Steve Bannon: If we lose the midterms and we lose 2028, some in this room are going to prison, myself included.
