At times we experience the night of faith, the weariness of believing, the fatigue of the spirit, a sense of inadequacy in the face of the Gospel’s call, the bitterness of our failures. These nights are a time of blessing and a place for rebirth. #ApostolicJourney
-Papá, ¿tan bueno era Nadal en tierra batida?
-Muchísimo, hijo, no se ha visto nunca nada igual.
-¿Tan difícil era ganarle un partido?
-Los rivales celebraban ganarle un simple punto, hijo. Era una locura.
🔥La situation est extrêmement grave. Le chef de l'État français souhaite apparemment la mort de Candace Owens et de Xavier Poussard et a mandaté des unités spécialisées pour y parvenir.
Bill Maher just ENDED Kamala Harris’s career with a brutal 2-minute monologue.
This one hurts. The ending is the icing on the cake.
“Kamala Harris’s new memoir of the 2024 election is called 107 Days. But it should have been called ‘Everyone sucks but me.’
“107 Days is a victim’s title because get it, she only had 107 days to win. Yeah, and a billion and a half dollars and a built-in army of about 75 million people who’d vote for any human-adjacent life form that wasn’t Trump.
“But in 107 Days, nothing is ever Kamala’s fault. Biden lets her down by not stepping down sooner. (Pouty face emoji). Gavin Newsom, he was asked for his endorsement but texted ’hiking.
“Gavin Newsom, he was asked for his endorsement, but texted ‘Hiking. Will call back.’ But then never did. And then he didn’t even ask her to prom.
“America itself lets Kamala down by not being ‘ready’ for the running mate she really wanted, Pete Buttigieg. So she stuck with the Home Depot paint salesman [Tim Walz], and the rest is HERstory. Poor Kamala. We made her the star of a rom-com and didn’t even give her a gay best friend.
“Kamala writes that on election night, when it was clear she lost, an aide peeled the words ‘Madam President’ off the cupcakes before handing them out. Oh, geez, that’s like a scene from Bridget Jones Runs for President, for Christ’s sake.”
“It’s not illegal to say Charlie deserved to die and you’re glad he did. They have a right to say that. BUT we have a right to FIRE you. You can’t walk into the office and say you’re into homicide...”
Jimmy Kimmel just learned this the hard way!! Jesse is spot on here!! 🔥👇🏼
Jimmy Kimmel lied about Charlie Kirk’s assassin being MAGA, this caused understandable outrage all over America, prompted TV station owners to say they wouldn’t air him, and he’s now been suspended by his employers. Why is he being heralded as some kind of free speech martyr?
Ninguna "justicia" será suficiente. Nada traerá de vuelta a este padre, esposo, hombre. Estamos indignados, tristes, enojados. Su legado no puede caer en saco roto. Tenemos que inspirarnos con su valentía, tenacidad y fe. Descanse en paz, Charlie Kirk.
Buscan sacar a Dios de la ecuación, porque ellos no tienen a Dios.
Los últimos asesinatos en Estados Unidos no son casualidad.
Han sido provocados por personas abiertamente identificadas con la izquierda, con ideologías que promueven caos y odio, mientras el sistema, corrompido y parcial, les permite salirse con las suyas.
Por eso atacan la fe, por eso ridiculizan a los cristianos, y por eso persiguen a todo aquel que se levanta con convicción.
No se trata solo de política.
Detrás de estas ideologías hay influencias espirituales: personas trans que, lejos de encontrar identidad, terminan poseídas por espíritus demoníacos que las usan como instrumentos de destrucción.
No lo digo con odio, lo digo con claridad: la raíz de este movimiento es espiritual.
El enemigo sabe que su tiempo es corto.
Por eso levanta un ejército de confusión, de muerte, de división.
Pero lo que pocos quieren reconocer es que la verdadera batalla no es entre izquierda y derecha, sino entre la vida y la muerte, entre la verdad y la mentira, entre Cristo y Satanás.
Y aquí está la verdad que nadie puede silenciar:
El virus woke, la cultura de la cancelación, el aborto, la violencia política, la destrucción de la familia… todo esto es parte del mismo plan.
Un plan que busca arrancar a Dios de nuestras vidas y dejar un vacío donde solo pueda habitar la oscuridad.
Pero nosotros no podemos callar.
Es tiempo de abrir los ojos, de despertar y de entender que no se trata solo de ideas, sino de almas.
Y yo lo digo claramente: donde Dios no está, reina la muerte.
La izquierda eligió ese camino.
Nosotros elegimos a Cristo, la Vida.
A while ago, probably in 2017, I appeared on Tucker Carlson's Fox show to talk about God knows what. Afterwards a name I barely knew sent me a DM on twitter and told me I did a great job. It was Charlie Kirk, and that moment of kindness began a friendship that lasted until today.
Charlie was fascinated by ideas and always willing to learn and change his mind. Like me, he was skeptical of Donald Trump in 2016. Like me, he came to see President Trump as the only figure capable of moving American politics away from the globalism that had dominated for our entire lives. When others were right, he learned from them. When he was right--as he usually was--he was generous. With Charlie, the attitude was never, "I told you so." But: "welcome."
Charlie was one of the first people I called when I thought about running for senate in early 2021. I was interested but skeptical there was a pathway. We talked through everything, from the strategy to the fundraising to the grassroots of the movement he knew so well. He introduced me to some of the people who would run my campaign and also to Donald Trump Jr. "Like his dad, he's misunderstood. He's extremely smart, and very much on our wavelength." Don took a call from me because Charlie asked him too.
Long before I ever committed (even in my mind) to running, Charlie had me speak to his donors at a TPUSA event. He walked me around the room and introduced me. He gave me honest feedback on my remarks. He had no reason to do this, no expectation that I'd go anywhere. I was polling, at that point, well below 5 percent. He did it because we were friends, and because he was a good man.
When I became the VP nominee--something Charlie advocated for both in public and private--Charlie was there for me. I was so glad to be part of the president's team, but candidly surprised by the effect it had on our family. Our kids, especially our oldest, struggled with the attention and the constant presence of the protective detail. I felt this acute sense of guilt, that I had conscripted my kids into this life without getting their permission. And Charlie was constantly calling and texting, checking on our family and offering guidance and prayers. Some of our most successful events were organized not by the campaign, but by TPUSA. He wasn't just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists. And after every event, he would give me a big hug, tell me he was praying for me, and ask me what he could do. "You focus on Wisconsin," he'd tell me. "Arizona is in the bag." And it was.
Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him.
Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he'd encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.
Charlie had an uncanny ability to know when to push the envelope and when to be more conventional. I've seen people attack him for years for being wrong on this or that issue publicly, never realizing that privately he was working to broaden the scope of acceptable debate.
He was a great family man. I was talking to President Trump in the Oval Office today, and he said, "I know he was a very good friend of yours." I nodded silently, and President Trump observed that Charlie really loved his family. The president was right. Charlie was so proud of Erika and the two kids. He was so happy to be a father. And he felt such gratitude for having found a woman of God with whom he could build a family.
Charlie Kirk was a true friend. The kind of guy you could say something to and know it would always stay with him. I am on more than a few group chats with Charlie and people he introduced me to over the years. We celebrate weddings and babies, bust each other's chops, and mourn the loss of loved ones. We talk about politics and policy and sports and life. These group chats include people at the very highest level of our government. They trusted him, loved him, and knew he'd always have their backs. And because he was a true friend ,you could instinctively trust the people Charlie introduced you to. So much of the success we've had in this administration traces directly to Charlie's ability to organize and convene. He didn't just help us win in 2024, he helped us staff the entire government.
I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that's how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in.
God didn't answer those prayers, and that's OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I'll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly.
You ran a good race, my friend.
We've got it from here.
