Mary, “Albanian Catholic Church” simply means a Catholic parish serving many Albanian-American families. And yes, Fr. Fred is a Catholic priest who serves as the pastor of the parish. The point of the post was community, faith, and service; not denominational debates. It’s odd to turn a positive message about faith and community into an argument over terminology lol.

You didn’t lie brother, you’re just choosing what to emphasize.
Yes, infrastructure and industry were built. That’s true. But context matters. Those factories weren’t built in a free, competitive economy, they were built in total isolation, with forced labor, no political freedom, and at the cost of imprisoning, executing, and silencing thousands of Albanians.
What good is a “strong military” when it’s pointed inward at your own people? What good are factories when citizens can’t speak, worship, travel, or live without fear?
The real test of a system isn’t what it builds under absolute control, it’s what it sustains when people are free.
After 1992, Albania didn’t just “lose factories”, it inherited a completely artificial, inefficient system that couldn’t survive without dictatorship level control. That collapse wasn’t an accident it was the bill coming due, like today’s Cuba.
To be clear, every Albanian family “suffered,” but many didn’t just suffer, they were destroyed. Executed. Imprisoned. Exiled. Entire generations erased.
So no, this isn’t about ignoring “positive sides.” It’s about refusing to normalize or balance out a regime that turned Albania into one of the most isolated and repressive countries in the world.
We can acknowledge history without rewriting it.
I enjoy following you but this post in my opinion is way off.

Beautiful. In many ways, our Albanian history runs deep and vast when it comes to the one true catholic and holy apostolic Church. We were Catholic before Rome itself.
St. Paul proclaimed the gospel of Christ from Jerusalem unto the illyricum. We are still fortunate to have official Albanian researchers in the secret Vatican archives that I can attest to that have told me that if they had a dozen of our people working full-time, it would take decades to catalog the relationship between our people and the holy see.
Oakland County has consistently delayed getting us public records and now, one elected leader says the same thing is happening to him. https://t.co/7tKQiNb1ZV
Jocelyn Benson says she’ll defy Trump’s citizenship verification EO.
Let’s break this down 👇
The order does 3 simple things:
▪️ Creates a verified citizenship list using DHS + Social Security
▪️ Ensures mail ballots only go to verified voters
▪️ Adds tracking/security measures for absentee ballots
In other words: basic safeguards.
Now here’s the part they don’t want to talk about:
👉 In Michigan, voter registration relies on self-attestation — you check a box claiming you’re a citizen
👉 The state does NOT verify that against a federal citizenship database
Let that sink in.
No real-time citizenship verification.
No cross-check system.
Just a checkbox.
And we’re told “nothing to worry about.”
Even Benson herself has acknowledged there are loopholes that allowed noncitizens onto voter rolls in the past
So here’s the honest question:
If only citizens should vote (which is already the law)…
WHY oppose verifying it?
What’s the harm in confirming eligibility before ballots go out?
Security ≠ suppression
Verification ≠ disenfranchisement
Accountability ≠ “chaos”
The only thing this EO threatens… is a system that currently runs on trust instead of verification.
And if you’re fighting that hard against basic safeguards…
People are going to start asking why…

The narrative that Serbia is about to be “attacked” by Croatia, Albania, and Kosovo is not just misleading , it is completely detached from reality.
Croatia, Albania, and Kosovo are not aggressor states. These nations have consistently aligned themselves with the Euro-Atlantic community, NATO, and democratic institutions. They have worked to strengthen regional stability, not undermine it.
The real history of the Balkans is not difficult to remember. In the 1990s, the world witnessed ethnic cleansing, mass displacement, and genocide carried out by the Milosevic regime against Bosniaks, Croats, and Albanians. Thousands of innocent civilians were murdered, and entire communities were forced from their homes. Those crimes were documented, prosecuted, and judged by international tribunals.
Today, attempts to rewrite that history or portray Serbia as the victim of some impending regional assault are nothing more than propaganda designed to inflame tensions.
The people of Croatia, Albania, and Kosovo want peace, prosperity, and integration with the West. They are partners with the United States and our allies. Stability in the Balkans depends on truth, accountability, and cooperation , not disinformation.
The United States has long stood with nations that choose democracy and peace. That remains as true today as ever.
Unreal
