Thank you, but I find it difficult to watch videos. I'm in the habit of reading for so long... A very important statement by Sachs is that he considers it possible that Trump will take back US foreign policy from Netanyahu. This would be a real game-changer. I think the signs are there that it might happen.
This is a volcano to be very worried about (and the fish are "the canary") in the Gulf of Pozzuoli near Naples in Italy, caused by the Supervolcano Campi Flegrei :
Let it be done unto us according to thy will, Dearest Lord. Prepare us, and infuse us with courage and sweet grace. AMEN
I can't watch video's either however, I love listening to them when I'm washing dishes, showering, gardening etc. I've almost become dependent on them whilst doing my daily chores.. and I do enjoy a good, informative one.
I don't agree with Ritter on everything. His American perspective doesn't always correlate with my European one, but he's worth listening to and undoubtedly interesting.
Bravo Orban Hungary to ban LGBTQ parades – Orban The prime minister had previously suggested that the organizers of the Pride event “should not bother” to prepare for it... Orban stated that the only reason the LGBTQ events took place in the capital was because they were being led by former American ambassador David Pressman( Pressman describes himself as "a proud Jew and openly gay), “which clearly expressed that the world’s great powers support this.” “But now there has been a change in the world,” Orban noted. He added that since Pressman left the country in January ahead of the inauguration of US President Donald Trump, Pride parades are “no longer under international protection.” In 2021, Hungary updated its child protection laws to prohibit the promotion of LGBTQ topics in media, advertising, and educational materials accessible to minors. The measure sparked a backlash in Brussels, which launched legal action against Budapest, referred the case to the European Court of Justice, and also froze billions in EU funds intended for Hungary over what it claimed were violations of fundamental human rights. ....It is a basic human right to sodomize children and walk naked on the street, perpetuating the perversion and decadence of society.
Bravo, Orban. Let us pray that the twin pressures of a changed US economic and trade policy bookended by the increasing power of Russia will soon lead to the toppling of the unelected van der Leyden regime in Brussels. Don't expect much help from the woke Irish political establishment, I have to say. Still, once the logjam begins to break, our politicians will follow like the weak puppies that they are.
Orban is doing good things. But when I recently wanted to find out a bit about abortion laws, I was somewhat disappointed. Hungary is not at all restrictive in this respect, the reason given is "the expected resistance from citizens". Well, yes. The top countries in Europe are Malta, Andorra, San Marino, Poland and Liechtenstein In Malta, Andorra and San Marino abortion is banned without exception.
When people in your country fly Ukrainian flags in support of Ukraines freedom I wonder are they aware of the vast resources to be had should one kindly and willingly and totally for humanitarian reasons "help" Ukraine: Ukraine is the largest country by area in Europe and has a population of over 40 million.

Maybe I'm an old sceptic, Steve, but to counter the distasteful policies of leftist "nutjobs" like Biden/Trudeau/Starmer/Macron/etc do the puppet masters require us to perceive that we have "choice" in the seemingly more palatable policies of good guys and social heros such as Trump/Orban/Melania/Milieu etc -- when, in fact, if we dig deeper we see that they all still push the same old scourges of the devil and make no real definitive efforts at changing laws around the big issues such as abortion, 'gay marriage', weapons manufacture, human trafficking, pornography, and general human decency etc. The devil is a very cunning fellow. And we poor souls are but very fickle indeed.
There are no good vs bad guys. They are all on a scale of bad - some are less bad than others. But God can still use the less bad. If that makes sense lol.
Yes!! I'm usually listening to a video from my favourite Catholic YouTube channel(s). I love what all have to say. I can't imagine putting videos up on what's happening in the world, the sign of the times. They are all so unbelievably brave. I know the devil probably yanks them by the hair but I know they are rewarded now & will be eternally. It wouldn't be easy at all but their love for God, His Church & wanting to convert souls prevails.
The devil has been meticulously planning his assault on humanity for a very, very long time. On his scale, we are very likely (if not exactly) right where he wants us. Wouldn't he be remiss to allow an eccentric billionaire with terrible hair to just waltz in and wreck thousands of years of planning! As much as I want to believe in the Trumpinator; its perhaps not likely. On the other hand though, God is not on the sidelines. And although the world has gone secular; there remains we the faithful. Its all so very confusing. What a time to be alive!
I am making plans today to go Garabandal on pilgrimage in June because the times are getting very grave.
You should call on the Belfast man when you're over there.... I'm sure he'd love to hear a good old Irish accent!
