    Nov 20 2024
    I appeared on another episode of The Catholic Current, discussing what we should expect in the aftermath of the election, why it’s becoming harder to have Thanksgiving dinners with those on the other side of the political aisle, and the limits of our constitutional government.

    Nov 16 2024
    Whoopi Goldberg has warned not to gather with those who voted for Trump this Thanksgiving. These anti-family announcements have been issued every two years for some time now.
