On the feast of St. Gianna Beretta Molla, we also remember Polish volleyball star Agata Mróz-Olszewska, who chose to delay life-saving bone marrow treatment in order to carry her pregnancy to term, and who died shortly after the birth of her daughter, with her funeral taking place on her first wedding anniversary.
🔴 The Moon turned red above one of the oldest wonders on Earth.
As the Blood Moon rose over the Great Pyramids of Giza, the sky delivered a moment where ancient history met cosmic physics. During a total lunar eclipse, Earth moves directly between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow across the lunar surface.
But the Moon doesn’t disappear.
Instead, sunlight bends through Earth’s atmosphere. Shorter blue wavelengths scatter away, while the longer red wavelengths curve into the shadow and illuminate the Moon — the same effect that creates our fiery sunsets.
In that moment, the Moon is lit by the combined glow of every sunrise and sunset happening across Earth.
Astronomers measure the intensity of this red color using the **Danjon Scale**:
• L0 – Almost invisible dark eclipse
• L1 – Dark gray or brown Moon
• L2 – Deep rust-red tone
• L3 – Bright brick-red glow
• L4 – Copper-orange, very bright eclipse
The deeper the red, the more dust, clouds, or particles are present in Earth’s atmosphere.

A reminder that the same sky watched by civilizations thousands of years ago is still unfolding above us tonight.

“I am a Catholic. I am a Catholic man.”
— Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza on why he took his trophy to the priests at the St. Paul Center at his university
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope was completely assembled at @NASAGodard’s Space Flight Center last month, moving us one step closer to revolutionizing our understanding of the universe with its deep, crisp, sweeping infrared views of space.
The sky above Rubin is giving some serious festive-season glitter vibes ✨
NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory's dome is coated with aluminum, which reflects sunlight during the day and cools off slowly at night. This prevents thermal turbulence near the telescope, keeping images crisp.
🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening, the fraud must be stopped.
This was in 2018......
"Sources in the Somali community told Fox 9 it is an open secret that starting a daycare center is a license to make money."
"The fraud is so widespread they said, that people buy shares of daycare businesses to get a cut of the huge public subsidies that are pouring in."
NOTHING HAPPENED.
Democrats remained in power. The fraud has gotten worse.

Just one month after being shot in the head at Annunciation Catholic Church, Lydia Kaiser is back at school.
After two surgeries and a traumatic brain injury, her recovery has been called nothing short of remarkable.
Keep praying for Lydia and all the victims. 🙏
I can’t wrap my head around having to write something like this. It’s beyond anything I ever thought possible. Charlie Kirk filled me with such incredible hope...
He was the spark that led me to launch Students for Trump and dedicate myself to a cause greater than my own ambitions. Without his guidance, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He had faith in others, even when they doubted themselves. He opened doors for those who needed it most, and he stood by the people who mattered to him without wavering. His compassion ran deeper than most, and so did his love for the fight.
Charlie was a true battler—a devoted warrior for Christ. People admired him not just for his unshakeable faith, but for his passion for America and its people. He saw potential in me and countless other even in our lowest moments...
If not for Charlie, our achievements in 2020 and 2024 wouldn’t have happened. We wouldn’t have signed up thousands of young voters or shifted so many perspectives. He accomplished what seemed unattainable and reshaped the Republican Party forever. Thanks to him, there’s a whole new wave of young Republicans who are fiercely patriotic and LOVE America.
I’ll carry his vision forward until my last breath… until God calls me Home.
And to those who let this tragedy unfold—or worse, celebrated it—you’ve awakened a fire in me. You have radicalized me. Everything changes now, and I won’t rest until his legacy echoes through the ages.
I love you, Charlie. No one can replace you and what you’ve done for America… or what you’ve accomplished as a loving father.
Everyone, please keep Charlie’s family in your prayers, including his beautiful wife Erika and their two children.
So cool. On Saturday morning, CWG reader David Abbou took this video of the giant sunspot facing Earth (which you can see with solar eclipse glasses) and which has been responsible for the solar storms and northern lights. As he was recording, an airplane photobombed the shot!
