Schrödinger’s RUSSIA: Too Weak to Beat UKRAINE but Strong Enough to Invade BRITAIN? youtube.com/watch?v=wB2CVlT0IfU We’re being told two completely incompatible things at the same time. On one hand, Russia is supposedly losing in Ukraine — unable to break through, burning men and equipment, struggling to sustain momentum. On the other hand, we’re now told that this very same Russia represents an imminent threat to Britain and Europe — strong enough to invade, overwhelm NATO, and force us onto a war footing. Both cannot be true. This video examines what I call Schrödinger’s Russia: a narrative in which Russia is simultaneously too weak to defeat Ukraine, yet powerful enough to threaten Britain itself. So what’s really going on? Is this genuine threat assessment — or political theatre? Is Europe preparing for a war it truly expects… or managing public psychology after decades of strategic complacency? And why does the language suddenly sound so urgent, so dramatic, so performative?…More
12/19/2025 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. In Scotland, prosecutors are investigating suspected cases of negligent homicide by companies (negligent homicide due to organizational failure by the government) in connection with its COVID-19 policies. The investigation is focusing on decisions such as the transfer of COVID-19 patients to care homes, the implementation of protective measures, and the reporting systems for deaths and their compliance. After two years and nine months of investigation, detectives have concluded there is enough evidence to support a complaint of corporate homicide against the Scottish Government. Quote from an article in the Scottish Daily Express on Monday: Nicola Sturgeon ‘Covid corporate homicide’ file passed to Crown Office prosecutors. What if I told you that you are the “carbon footprint” they want to reduce? As well as corporate homicide, police have considered the use of Do Not Attempt CPR (DNA-CPR) notices; the hospital discharge process; the RIDDOR …
My friends have no joy or consolation given to them but, instead, every kind of mockery and torment are inflicted upon them as if they were possessed by the devil. When they tell the truth about me, they are rejected and accused of lying. They have a fervent desire to hear or speak the truth about me, but there is no one who listens to them or speaks the truth to them. On Suffering n this life guilt is not atoned for by any suffering simply as suffering, but rather by suffering borne with desire, love, and contrition of heart. The value is not in the suffering but in the soul’s desire. Likewise, neither desire or nor any other virtue has value or life except through my only-begotten Son, Christ crucified, since the soul has drawn love from him and in virtue follows his footsteps. Suffering satisfies for sin then, with gentle unitive love born from the sweet knowledge of my goodness and from the bitterness and contrition the heart finds in the knowledge of itself and its own sins.
Prevost extends the Chicago gay mafia to New York by promoting pro-gay Ronald Hicks, a disciple of the homosexual and Satanist Predator Joseph Bernardin and anti-Catholic apostate pro-gay Blase Cupich
Pope Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Ron Hicks, 58, of Joliet, Illinois, as the 11th Archbishop of New York. Monsignor Hicks was ordained as a priest in 1994 by likely homosexual Cardinal Joseph Bernardin. He was ordained as an auxiliary bishop by pro-homosexual Cardinal Blase Cupich, whom he owes his entire carreer. Cardinal Timothy Dolan, who has led the Archdiocese of New York since 2009, will be remembered for permitting a transvestite show funeral for homosexual activist Cecilia Gentili at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in February 2024. In all likelihood, substantively, Bishop Hicks will not differ significantly from Cardinal Dolan. First Generation-X Prelate at Major US Archdiocese Bishop Hicks will be the first Generation-X prelate (born roughly between 1965 and 1980) to hold a major U.S. see. He comes from a very different era of seminary formation. The Archbishop of New York is traditionally appointed a cardinal. From 2005 to 2010, Bishop Hicks spent five years on missionary assignment …More
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 For such false apostles are deceitful workmen, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no wonder: for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works.
Americas Many young Americans ‘too fat’ or not educated ‘properly’ to join military: Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth encourages recruiters to make serving in military more attractive US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Thursday cited historic military recruiting numbers but acknowledged barriers to military enlistment, including obesity and criminal records. Speaking at the Recruiting Excellence Forum at the Pentagon, Hegseth referenced what he described as “historic recruiting numbers” under the Trump administration but noted ongoing challenges. "I know it's not easy on the basic ingredients on recruiting," Hegseth said. "Too many of our young people are too fat or too dumb. Not dumb, that's wrong. You know, we're just not educating them properly, or they've got criminal records ... all these other things ... contributing to what someone may or may not qualify to get into the military," he added. Hegseth encouraged recruiters to make serving in the military more attractive and to treat …
Saint Malachy the Prophet (Malachi) | The Last Voice of the Old Testament | December 18 Saint Malachy, whose name means “My Messenger,” is the last of the twelve Minor Prophets of the Old Testament and the final prophetic voice before the coming of Christ. He lived in the 5th century BC, after the Jewish people had returned from exile in Babylon, during a time of spiritual decline and religious complacency. The Book of Malachi, the final book of the Old Testament, delivers a powerful call to renewal. Through Malachy, God confronts corruption among priests, lukewarm worship, injustice, and broken covenant faithfulness. His words challenge both religious leaders and the people to return to sincere worship, moral integrity, and reverence for God. Saint Malachy is especially remembered for his prophetic announcement of a coming messenger who would prepare the way of the Lord—a prophecy Christians recognise as fulfilled in Saint John the Baptist, who prepares the way for Jesus Christ. This …More

Luisella Scrosati is one of the finest Catholic journalists in Italy at this time. She often writes articles of considerable interest on liturgical topics. With the permission ofLa Nuova Bussola Quotidiana, we offer NLM readers the following translation of her article series on the topic of spiritual, architectural, and liturgical orientation, beginning today with “L’orientamento della preghiera”, originally published in Italian on November 9 of this year. No religious man, whether pagan, Jewish, or Christian, neglected the posture of the body in prayer, and especially in the presentation of offerings to the deity. In particular, three aspects appear especially well documented in writings and visual representations: standing posture, raised and open hands, and eyes turned toward the sky—characteristics that were common to both the faithful who presented offerings and prayers and the priest who sacrificed them to the deity. These bodily attitudes express a clear aspect: prayer and the …
Wed Dec 17, 2025 - 9:45 am EST (LifeSiteNews) — According to a new report, the big problem with TV these days is that there aren’t enough abortions taking place on screen. On one hand, according to the annual “Abortion Onscreen” report, there is good news. There were some onscreen abortions – 66 abortion storylines in 2024 – including in shows like The Pitt, Call the Midwife, Love is Blind, Family Guy, and South Park. “But in the past few years, there’s been a significant drop in the number of characters who actually went through with an abortion,” writes Neda Ulaby at NPR, who takes it for granted that this is a bad thing. “37% obtained an abortion in 2025, a 14% decline since 2023.” READ: Trump advisers ‘furious’ over Josh Hawley’s pro-life ad plan ahead of midterms: report The “Abortion Onscreen” report is put out each year by Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health, a research program on abortion at the University of California San Fransico. “I think there …
We continue posting daily Advent reflections by the Church Fathers. It's a good way to prepare to celebrate Christmas. The reflections and quotations come from the book titled, Advent and Christmas with the Church Fathersby Marco Pappalardo. Introduction A true friend is ready to do anything for his or her friend. The greatest gift that can be given in a friendship is making way for the other by taking a step back at the right time. John the Baptist, described as a solitary man of the desert, fully understood this relationship and how a spiritual bond cannot be neglected. He stepped back at the appropriate time, indicating the true Teacher for his disciples; however, he did not step back from the presence of this quintessential Friend—the Bridegroom—at the time of the Baptism in the Jordan. From that moment on, he remained his witness to the point of martyrdom.Augustine, You have often heard it said, and are thus perfectly aware, that the more John the Baptist stood out among all those …

Pope Leo XIV has appointed Auxiliary Bishop Ramón Bejarano of San Diego as the new Bishop of Monterey, California. Born on July 17, 1969, in Laredo, Texas, Monsignor Bejarano was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Stockton on August 15, 1998. On February 27, 2020, Pope Francis appointed him Auxiliary Bishop of San Diego, run by Cardinal Robert McElroy, one of the most progressive prelates in the American hierarchy. “All Are Welcome” Eucharist In June 2024, Bishop Bejarano presided over an “All Are Welcome” Eucharist at St. John the Evangelist Parish in San Diego. The service was presented as an outreach to practicing homosexuals. At the end of the service, he offered a special blessing for homosexuals: "Help us embrace that our beloved LGBTQ+ siblings and all who feel marginalized by the Church are beautifully and wonderfully made in Your image." He continued: "Bless our LGBTQ ministry so that we may continue to grow by your grace and bring all people to the knowledge and love …More
