Did you know that traditional Catholicism is under attack by the FBI for being extreme, and festering terrorism? That’s right! The FBI issued a memo warning of extremists who are infiltrating “radical – traditionalist Roman Catholic organizations known primarily for the love of the Latin Mass.” I thought this was a joke when I first heard about the FBI’s latest blunder. But I kid you not. Such a memo was actually issued by the organization that is supposed to be there to protect, and not to intimidate.

The Hispanic vote is in flux, with the 2022 midterms delivering mixed results for both parties. On the one hand, Republicans fell short of lofty goals in Arizona and South Texas, where immigration dominated the political narrative last fall.
On the other hand, Hispanics voted in Historic margins for Republicans in Florida, and moved to the right by ten percentage points nationwide compared to 2018.

I’m a Tina Turner fan, but she got it wrong in her hit a few years back called “We don’t need another Hero.” The song goes on to say:
We don’t need to know the way home, ooh
All we want is life beyond Thunderdome.
A full life needs hope, inspiration, an understanding of the value of charity, and a following of the precepts of what is honorable. So yes Tina. We do need heroes.
