November 2nd, bones of Saint Nicholas were stolen from the Basilica of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port in France and DESTROYED. A suspect confessed to smashing the display case, then burning and crushing the relics out of a "desire to destroy." This is pure evil.

Heartbreaking.

Interesting read: "When reviewing the data, Catholic professor Stephen Bullivant said something that surprised him was that TLM-attending Catholics are 'surprisingly normal, as normal as any group of people deeply committed to practicing religion in a secularized world.'"
Researchers are challenging common misconceptions about Catholics who attend the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM). Though sometimes perceived as a fringe group within the Church, the reality is far more nuanced, according to two Catholic professors studying these communities.

Governor-elect Phil Weiser says citizen-led ballot measures on transgender policies must undergo further review before taking effect. Coloradans already voted to pass them. Whatever happened to "No Kings"?

Michael Alfonso, a devout Catholic elected to the U.S. House at just 26, reportedly prayed a Novena to Our Lady of Victory with his wife the day before his primary victory. He put his trust in God, and God will surely use him.

Recent data suggests religion played far less of a role in the midterms than expected: 🔹 Most Evangelical districts: D+23 🔹 Mainline Protestant: D+15 🔹 Catholic: D+15 A massive shift to the left across the board.

Even in a deep-blue state, common sense came out on top. Colorado is PASSING Proposition 134, which protects girls' sports by requiring eligibility to be based on biological sex. 👏 If this can pass in Colorado, it can happen ANYWHERE.

The midterms brought mixed headlines, but don't overlook the meaningful victories and silver linings that emerged. Here are three key wins and the perspective every Catholic needs today: 1. A bold Catholic voice heads to Capitol Hill. At 26 years old, Michael Alfonso won election to the U.S. House from Wisconsin—becoming the youngest representative in the chamber and bringing unapologetic Catholic conviction to Congress. 2. Idaho holds the line for life. Voters officially defeated Proposition 1 with 56% voting "NO," turning back outside efforts and keeping the state’s strong pro-life protections firmly intact. 3. Colorado votes in favor of biological reality. In one of the nation's bluest states, voters approved Prop 133 (life sentences for child sex traffickers), Prop 134 (protecting girls' sports), and Prop 135 (protecting minors from life-altering surgeries). Remember, God remains on the throne. Regardless of the outcome of this election, it's important to remember that God is actively working through all things. Catholics are firm, not floundering. Our mission does not depend on a single election cycle. We remain steadfast in defending faith, family, and the dignity of human life. If not in this election cycle, then the next. The work to advance our Catholic values in public life continues today. Stand firm and keep praying.

This was my message before the State of the Union address in January, which reads like a warning or conversely like a preview. Tonight, we hope to hear: About the economy: A clear commitment that the economy will tangibly improve for the average American family. Inflation, food prices, and housing costs have strained households for years. Young Americans want to marry, buy homes, and raise children. They cannot do so if homeownership remains out of reach. A serious plan to restore affordability is not optional; it is foundational to the future of the country. About America’s health: We also hope to hear that the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiative will remain a priority and deliver measurable reform. Americans deserve confidence in their food supply, transparency in public health decisions, and policies that prioritize long-term well-being over corporate interests. If MAHA is to be a defining pillar of this administration, tonight is the moment to reaffirm it. On life issues: We urge the President to rescind the previous administration’s telehealth expansion of mifepristone distribution. Chemical abortion has quietly become the front line of the abortion industry. Protecting unborn life requires addressing this reality directly. On human rights:  We hope to hear a firm commitment to securing the release of Jimmy Lai, the Catholic publisher and pro-democracy advocate imprisoned in Hong Kong. His freedom would send a powerful message that America still stands unapologetically for religious liberty and human dignity on the global stage. President Trump has often spoken of winning. Catholics are not tired of winning, and we are expecting upcoming victories to be substantive. We want continued progress against gender ideology that confuses children and undermines parental authority. We want renewed protection for the unborn. We want housing and economic conditions that allow young families to form and flourish. We want strong safeguards for religious freedom at home and determined advocacy for persecuted Christians abroad. The American people have tasted excellence in recent days through our athletes’ achievements. Tonight is an opportunity for national leadership to match that standard; to articulate a vision worthy of a nation approaching its 250th anniversary. We will be praying for the President… and we will be listening.

🚨 Bishop Michael Burbidge of Arlington, Virginia, has issued a statement in response to Virginia voters' decisions to legalize abortion up until birth and recognize same-sex "marriage." 'Tragically, a majority of Virginians voted this election season to insert an extreme and limitless legal right to abortion into our Commonwealth's constitution. A majority also lamentably voted to strip objectively good and true language from our state's constitution that upheld the truth that marriage is a sacred institution uniting one man and one woman. Despite this defeat, faithful Catholics may be consoled by the certainty that each one of us gave God our best efforts, and that he will not allow those efforts to be in vain. We know the truth, and no temporary political defeat changes this reality. Thus, we do not despair. We resolve to continue speaking the truth with love and, together, we persevere in faith and hope.'

The pro-life movement is still securing major victories in a post-Dobbs America. Idaho voters officially rejected Proposition 1, with 56% voting "NO" to leave the state's existing abortion restrictions firmly in place. This is a huge win for the unborn and a powerful reminder that our movement is strong and ready to win hearts and minds across the country.

Michael Alfonso's victory in Wisconsin is a huge milestone for Catholics. At 26 years old, he will be the youngest representative in the House, bringing a much-needed breath of fresh air to Capitol Hill by championing Catholic values. Pray for him as he prepares for his term.
