The Kind of Men Who Flummox Trump May 7, 2026 By David French Opinion Columnist nytimes.com/…/07/opinion/trump-iran-ukraine-true-… The Iran war has revealed President Trump’s true weakness. There is a kind of person who truly flummoxes Trump, the person he just can’t understand — the true believer. Trump’s central political insight (and perhaps his key political advantage) is that he understood that Americans weren’t quite cynical enough about many of our politicians. As much as we already thought they placed power over principle, we didn’t know the half of it. He could see our politicians more clearly than we could — perhaps because he’d spent a lifetime in their presence, writing them large checks while hearing their empty promises. And he showed it by placing a big carrot and a giant stick in front of the Republican political class, and then we watched as virtually everyone fell in line. It’s worth emphasizing the size of the carrot and the stick. First, the carrot: Joining …More
Worse than Germany: On 1 May, Don Dino Rampazzo celebrated a Eucharist outside Bar Grumo in Valdagno, Diocese of Vicenza, Italy. The event was part of a series of “traveling Eucharists” held in local neighbourhoods instead of churches. More than 80 people attended the service, which ended with drinks provided by the bar. Don Rampazzo said the initiative was intended to reach people outside traditional church settings, responding to criticism by saying: “God is wherever people are.”

Saint Ignatius of Laconi - May 11 Also known as Ignacy z Làconi Ignazio da Laconi Vincenzo Peis Memorial 11 May Profile Son of a poorfarmer with sevenchildren, Ignatius grew up in hard rural poverty, working the fields. At age 17, he became very ill, and promised to become a Franciscan if he was spared. When he was cured, his father convinced him to wait. At age 20 Ignatius was almost killed when he lost control of his horse; suddenly the horse stopped, and trotted on quietly. Ignatius was convinced God had saved his life again, and he decided to follow his religious vocation at once. He joined the Capuchinmonastery of Saint Benedict at Buoncammino, Italy as a lay brother, taking his vows in 1722. Worked fifteen years in his house’s weaving shed, then spent forty years as part of a team who went house to house asking food and donations for the friars. People soon realized they received a gift in return from Brother Ignatius as he consoled the sick and the lonely …More
Saint Ignatius Laconi - May 11 catholictv. St. Ignatius of Laconi was a Capuchin Friar. He was born in 1701 and died in 1781. He was canonized 1951 by Pius XII. Born the second of seven children in a poor farming family, Francis Ignatius Vincent Peis was so named because his safe delivery through a difficult pregnancy was achieved through the intercession of St. Francis of Assisi. His mother promised the saint that she would name her unborn baby Francis and that he would join the Capuchins as an adult. Since his early childhood, Francis demonstrated a capacity for hard work in the fields and a strong piety. He would often be seen in prayer and was known to wait at the church doors every morning in prayer until they were opened. He wanted to join the Capuchins as a teenager, but his father would not allow him to because the family depended on his labour to survive. However, on surviving a riding accident through God’s intervention at the age of 20, he decided to enter the Capuchin …More

It took Russia to bring help to them. France came, looked around and left. They asked Russia for help and President Putin not only sent them weapons and aid but men to teach them how to defend themselves. Where was the rest of the world? Looking the other way and laughing at them. That's a fact that those in Africa still talk about today! And why many countries raise Russian flags on stores and homes and roadways. Not just one African nation but many. Ask Russia for help and she will be there, no matter who you are. facts speak for themselves!
A advertisement for a French perfume brand appeared on the LED screens covering the façade and apse of Rome’s Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. This prompted a group of residents and worshippers from the Monti district to send a protest letter to the Archpriest Rolandas Makrickas, criticising what they described as the “commercialisation” of the historic basilica. The screens were installed during restoration works that began in late 2024. Back then, Vatican officials said the advertising revenue helps cover renovation costs ahead of the Jubilee.
La pubblicità di un noto profumo francese sulla facciata della basilica patriarcale di Santa Maria Maggiore è stata la goccia che ha fatto di nuovo traboccare il vaso facendo insorgere un gruppo di fedeli del quartiere Monti che, alquanto sbigotti, hanno inviato una lettera di protesta al cardinale arciprete Rolandas Mackrikas. «In quanto membri del Comitato cittadino del Rione Monti e residenti del Rione, vi scriviamo per esprimervi il nostro profondo sgomento per i due enormi cartelloni pubblicitari luminosi sulla facciata e sull’abside della veneranda Basilica». Il gruppo di fedeli si chiede se sia necessario ricorrere a pubblicità tanto appariscenti che nulla hanno a che fare con l'atmosfera e il luogo sacro. Dal volto di Sinner che fa da testimonial ad una marca di caffè, piuttosto che all'ultimo modello di uno smartphone, fino a un profumo. Il tema che viene sollevato è la evidente “mercificazione” di Santa Maria Maggiore...

Allow me to clarify: in nearly twenty years of working for the Church—at the parish and diocesan levels and in an apostolate that has international reach—I have never seen a parish (or diocesan) pastoral plan produce the wide-spread transformative fruit its authors hoped for.

Israeli settlers blocked children in Masafer Yatta from playing football on their village field threatened with demolition. The settlers sat before them chanting in Hebrew to intimidate them, while the children watched helplessly. How much longer will this continue?
It will continue until many nations are annihilated. This is simply one aspect of the "Errors of Russia," which end in WW3 and the establishment of the NWO.
War in Iran. Key Developments, April 24: A “Neither Peace Nor War” Stalemate. Iran Holds All the Cards—the U.S. Is Digging Its Own Grave The war in the Middle East has entered a “neither peace nor war” phase, but this is precisely where the U.S. seems to have miscalculated: by maintaining the blockade, they are themselves provoking a rise in oil prices, putting pressure on their own economy, and strengthening Iran’s role as the controller of key routes. Trump’s “unwavering” stance isn’t working; all the trump cards are in Iran’s hands—and the US is digging its own grave. The “neither peace nor war” mode In the Middle East, the conflict between the US and Iran has entered a “neither peace nor war” phase. According to military blogger Yuri Podolyaka’s morning briefing, the situation is as follows: the formal two-week ceasefire announced by Donald Trump on April 8 was supposed to end on the 22nd, but the U.S. president effectively extended it without specifying a concrete timeframe …More
TOKYO — The Philippines’ shock inflation spike in April is a serious warning sign — an economic canary in the coal mine that shouldn’t be ignored. The 7.2% year-on-year jump is roughly double the first-quarter 3.4% growth rate. Clearly, the Philippines falling into the stagflation zone wasn’t on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr’s 2026 Bingo card. The predicament is more than just an abrupt wakeup call for officials in Manila. It’s a distress signal to developing Asia. The Philippines, it’s safe to say, is Asia’s first Iran war inflationary domino to fall. It’s the vanguard of economic trauma to come — trauma that will only get worse the longer the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. What worries economists most is how widespread the price increases are proving to be. From food to transportation to utilities, the scale and breadth of increases mean Philippine inflation is likely to top 8% in the second quarter. That makes it a virtual lock that the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the …
