@SecWar@POTUS@JDVance@SecRubio In regards to firing squad, this isn’t civilized nor American Way. Our sons & daughters are volunteer defenders at peace. This cowardice act shouldn’t get us doing this savages bidding as a martyrlive-streamed by his choice of live fire.
🚨 The US Senate just REJECTED the measure to remove 1.4 MILLION illegals from Medicaid, all because Thune REFUSES to fire the Parliamentarian
She’s forcing this provision to need 60 VOTES.
GROW A SPINE! FIRE HER @LeaderJohnThune!

We have a problem & it starts with the basic truths not being taught of our Faith it’s failing our families. These administrators at these institutions need to be investigated on what & who they are promoting as Catholicism in the classes.
Gonzaga University, a “Catholic” college, tried to shut us out because they’re scared of the truth about abortion.
I was banned from tabling. The administration prevented students from coming inside to ask questions. “Catholic” student protestors demanded the Church bend to abortion.
This indoctrination is happening on college campuses across America, including at “Catholic” schools. Let’s be clear: you cannot be Catholic and support abortion. The backlash I faced here is in direct contradiction to the Church.
I’m not going anywhere.
@CatholicVote The importance of tradition & love of country, sacrifice is not shared any longer to our children. I’m sure many simply don’t know significance of placing one’s hand over the heart. Many doing it as an act of defiance are ignorant to the why. It’s the @WNBA usual playbook, sadly.
Reminder: The Texas State Board of Education approved a health textbook that teaches life begins at birth—not conception.
If Texas allows this to remain in classrooms, we will raise a generation of voters primed to support and pass extreme laws like the one enacted this week in Massachusetts.

SAINT RAPHAEL PRAYER FOR THE SICK
Glorious Saint Raphael the Archangel,
great prince of the heavenly court,
you are illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace.
You are a guide of those who journey,
a comforter of the afflicted,
and a healer of the sick.
I humbly ask you to intercede for me
(or mention the name of the person who is ill)
before the throne of God.
Obtain for us the grace of healing, if it is God’s holy will.
Strengthen us in body, mind, and soul,
give us patience in suffering, and preserve us from all illness and danger.
Just as you restored the sight of Tobit and guided Tobias safely on his journey,
lead us always in the way of holiness,
that we may faithfully serve God and one day rejoice with you in His heavenly kingdom.
Saint Raphael the Archangel,
patron of healing,
pray for us and for all who are sick.
Amen 🙏
“The sign of the cross is the most terrible weapon against the devil. Thus the Church wishes not only that we have it continually in front of our minds to recall to us just what our souls are worth and what they cost Jesus Christ, but also that we should make it at every juncture ourselves: when we go to bed, when we awaken during the night, when we get up, when we begin any action, and, above all, when we are tempted.” (St. Jean Marie Vianney)
A special plenary indulgence is available on August 1st and 2nd each year!
Here is the story of the "Pardon of Assisi":
In July 1216, while praying in the Portiuncula chapel, St. Francis saw a vision of Jesus and Mary. When asked what he desired, he requested a full pardon for all who entered the chapel with sincere repentance and confession. Jesus granted it, instructing Francis to seek papal approval. Pope Honorius III granted the request—now known as the “Pardon of Assisi.”
Originally limited to the Portiuncula from the evening of August 1 to sunset on August 2, this plenary indulgence was later extended to all Franciscan—and eventually all Catholic—churches.
To receive the indulgence (from noon August 1st to midnight August 2nd), one must: visit a Catholic or Franciscan church with devotion, go to Confession and Communion within 20 days, recite the Apostles’ Creed and the Our Father, pray for the Pope’s intentions, and be free from attachment to sin.
This extraordinary grace, born of divine mercy and Franciscan humility, is available each year—not only for ourselves (the living), but also for the souls in purgatory (the deceased).
Solidarity with Our Lady of Sorrows
It is highly recommended to pray in solidarity with Our Lady meditating on her Seven Sorrows. It is an act of filial devotion and reparation for all that she suffered for each one of us. She is so appreciative of this special devotion that she richly rewards those who practice it.
In the 14th century, the Blessed Virgin Mary revealed to Saint Bridget of Sweden that those who pray a Hail Mary while meditating on each of her Seven Sorrows will receive seven graces. Here is what she promised:

1. I will grant peace to their families.
2. They will be enlightened about the divine mysteries.
3. I will console them in their pains and I will accompany them in their work.
4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my divine Son or the sanctification of their souls.
5. I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives.
6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death, they will see the face of their Mother.
7. I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors, will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven. My Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.
This is a powerful devotion as it unites us to not only Mother Mary's Sorrows but also to her divine Son's Sorrowful Passion. 🕊️
Under oath, Planned Parenthood's baby organ harvesting partner (ABR) states: "We do a dissection" of babies, harvesting organs even while they have beating hearts
"I can see hearts that are not in an intact [baby] that are beating independently”
Defund & prosecute Planned Parenthood!
July 11 is the Feast of St. Benedict — and millions of Catholics around the world wear his medal. But do you know what it actually means?
Known as the "devil-chasing medal," the St. Benedict Medal is one of the most powerful sacramentals in the Catholic Church. Its power comes not from the object itself, but from Christ, who works through the faith of the one who uses it.
The Front:
St. Benedict holds a cross. At his side are a broken cup—after monks tried to poison him, it shattered when he blessed it—and a raven carrying away a poisoned loaf, another failed attempt on his life. Around the edge is the inscription:
Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur
"May we be strengthened by his presence in our hour of death."
The Back:
A large cross bears the initials of the famous prayer:
C.S.P.B. – Crux Sancti Patris Benedicti
"The Cross of our Holy Father Benedict."
C.S.S.M.L. – Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux
"May the Holy Cross be my light."
N.D.S.M.D. – Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux
"May the dragon not be my guide."
Around the border is the exorcism prayer:
V.R.S. – Vade Retro, Satana!
"Begone, Satan!"
N.S.M.V. – Numquam Suade Mihi Vana!
"Never tempt me with your vanities!"
S.M.Q.L. – Sunt Mala Quae Libas.
"What you offer is evil."
I.V.B. – Ipse Venena Bibas!
"Drink your own poison!"
At the bottom is a single word:
PAX — Peace.
The medal was formally approved by Pope Benedict XIV in 1742. It became widely known after the miraculous healing of a young man named Brunone, who later entered the Benedictine Order and eventually became Pope St. Leo IX.
St. Benedict, pray for us! 🙏
