Mon Apr 25, 2022 - 11:17 am EDTMon Apr 25, 2022 - 3:31 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — The world waits with bated breath to see if Elon Musk is crowned the king of Twitter today. Last week, many conservatives cheered the news that the eccentric billionaire and “free speech” advocate had unveiled a $46.5 billion offer to buy the outstanding shares of Twitter, making him the sole owner in the largest attempted take private of its kind in history. Mr. Musk’s financing package, like so much of what he does, is very non-traditional. With $33.5 billion (of the $46.5 billion) coming from his own fortune, the offer is decidedly less “leveraged” than a traditional leveraged buyout (LBO). Acquirors in this type of transaction typically seek to borrow as much as possible, minimizing their required cash (equity) to close the transaction. Beginning with the LBO craze of the 80’s and 90’s, investors who have engaged in these types of transactions have continually re-learned the hard lessons of using too …
Card. Cupich in Chicago: "Full, conscious and active participation in Vatican II liturgical celebrations" allowed. But Latin Mass slashed. And then some.

Cardinal Sarah's comments make readers question where is he coming from?? His Eminence says pope wants Latin Mass not abolished, but said in the spirit of Vatican II. What did he just say????
Fri Nov 26, 2021 - 3:08 pm ESTFri Nov 26, 2021 - 3:56 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — Cardinal Robert Sarah, the former head of the Vatican’s Congregation for Divine Worship, said Pope Francis does not wish to “abolish” the Latin Mass, but merely to celebrate it “in the spirit of Vatican II.” Speaking with French daily newspaper Le Figaro, Cardinal Sarah touched on “tensions” following Pope Francis’ July motu proprio Traditionis Custodes, in which he implemented sweeping restrictions on the celebration of the traditional Mass. “I believe that Pope Francis has clearly explained his intention in the various ad limina visits of the French and Polish bishops,” began Sarah, who served as Prefect for the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments from 2014 through 2021. “His aim is not at all to abolish the ancient liturgy,” claimed Sarah. “He [Pope Francis] is aware that many young people and families are intimately attached to it. And he is attentive to this …
Catholic men in Northern Ireland started in October a monthly men’s Rosary Rally. At the November 6 rally, eighty men knelt in the rain, CatholicArena.com reported. One spoke of an “unbelievable experience,” calling this "the most impressive thing I have ever been at." Women on the periphery were moved to tears at the scene. These public displays of the Catholic faith have taken off in Poland in recent years, with crowds regularly throbbing the streets of Warsaw and other major cities. Similar rallies were also held in the USA. #newsTebrzgrjro
Buying into the narrative... interesting interview. I have been thinking this all along. Have not researched interviewer nor professor from Belgium. This is something I'd like to listen to in the grocery store wearing earbuds and accidentally have this podcast on speaker.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán gave Francis during their September 12 meeting in Budapest the letter of Hungary's King Béla IV (+1270) to Innocent IV. Béla warned the pope in 1250 of the Tatar-Mongol invasion calling for the unity of the Catholic nations. He was ignored. 35 years later Hungary fended off the Tatars with great bloodshed. While Orbán was implicitly referring to the ongoing Muslim invasion into Europe, Francis urged in his only seven hours visit to extend the arms towards everyone - except Roman Rite Catholics, of course. Several news agencies noticed that Francis and Orban took their seats several meters apart, a generous but necessary safety distance since Orbán is a Christian and Francis a conformist. #newsLudfgmuxka
