It was March 1945, and a Japanese bomber strike had turned the USS Franklin aircraft carrier’s flight deck into a blazing inferno. A middle-aged man with a cross on his helmet was organizing firefighting crews, tending to the wounded, and finding sailors skilled in bomb disabling all at once. As Sam Rhodes worked feverishly on pitching a bomb overboard, as directed by the man with the cross, he thought, “Well… if I go up with a bomb, at least I go with a priest.”Today is Medal of Honor Day, commemorating those who received America's highest military honor. I highly recommend reading the stories of men who recently received the Medal of Honor from President Donald Trump. But in this piece, I'm going to focus on a Catholic Navy chaplain later described by his non-religious captain as "the bravest man I have ever seen."...Fr. Joseph Timothy O’Callahan, U.S. Navy chaplain, was eating in the wardroom on March 19, 1945 (the feast day of his namesake St. Joseph), when the semi-armor piercing shells hit the Franklin's flight deck. At the time, dozens of planes were either in the hangar or actually on the flight deck, their tanks filled with fuel. Or, in other words, they were now part of the reason the enemy strike turned the Franklin into an inferno.
The Democrats have made it painfully, frighteningly clear that they intend to weaponize the government against President Trump, his allies, and anyone who didn't sufficiently "resist" the Trump administration if they regain power. Susan Rice said last month, "When it comes to the elites, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media...it is not going to end well for them, for those that decided...that they would act in their perceived very narrow self interest," Rice said, "which I would underscore is a very short-term self-interest and take a knee to Trump."...The biggest target thus far of the Democrats' retribution plans is ICE agents. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner vowed to hunt them down like Nazis. Eric Swalwell said he'd make their lives a living hell if he's elected Governor of California. And several states, including Maryland and Rhode Island, have introduced legislation that would bar ICE agents from obtaining law enforcement jobs in those states, while Colorado advanced a bill allowing lawsuits against ICE agents.The Supreme Court, however, has made it clear that the Democrats' revenge plans may not pass constitutional muster, and they ruled against the Second Circuit and upheld that a Vermont officer had immunity.
When Republican presidents take power in the United States, women around the world die at higher rates during pregnancy and childbirth, according to a new peer-reviewed study.Research published in BMJ Global Health found that global family planning aid drops sharply under Republican administrations and surges by 48% when Democrats take over, the Guardian reported Wednesday.For countries heavily dependent on U.S. aid, the consequences are dire. Funding cuts correlate with an 11% increase in maternal deaths — roughly 45 additional deaths for every 100,000 live births.
What is already known on this topic Access to abortion care is central to women’s health and wellbeing, and the GGR has interrupted a range of family planning programmes with follow-on impacts on service provision, fertility rates and access to health inputs.
Finally, the world is undergoing a course correction. Europe is reversing course on "transitioning" children, and the United States under President Donald Trump is making huge strides to end this evil ideology. And now, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has come around.On Thursday in Lausanne, Switzerland, the IOC announced a new pro-female eligibility policy that draws a big, beautiful, and unmistakable line: Women’s events are for biological females. Period.The policy states, “Eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, is now limited to biological females.” That eligibility is “determined on the basis of a one‑time SRY gene screening.”There is nothing vague about it. That’s not a suggestion. That’s clarity—something sorely missing from this debate for far too long.This change will take effect at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, and it aligns closely with President Donald Trump’s February 2025 executive order, “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.”
