A group of Catholic bishops in Washington state have just filed a lawsuit that answers a new law that requires priests to break the seal of confession when child abuse, whether physical or sexual, is confessed by a parishioner. The Catholic News Agency reports that the Archdiocese of Seattle as...
Earlier this week, I briefly touched on my health issues. A false colon cancer diagnosis brought an end to my mayoral campaign here in Albany, New York. To the left, you see me being interviewed at a local radio station in January, after announcing my candidacy in January. Photo is...
While scrolling through X last night, a tweet went by me so fast that I was able to skim it but I lost track of it. Essentially, the question that is apparently going around on that social networking platform is this: now that he is pope, Pope Leo XIV, will...
Look, I know the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) is meant to be our enemy and I know that, one day, they’re going to nuke us (or at least try), but there’s a viral trend going around TikTok that makes me think that perhaps they’re not so bad after all. ...
One of the finest presidents our nation has ever seen and ever will see, President Donald Trump keeps hitting it out of the park, making decisions that Sleepy Joe Biden never could in a million years. What did Trump do this time? He’s revoking the student visas for over 300,000...
Today is another one of the many unnecessary holidays in the United States of America. We have way too many holidays, and today is one of them. What holiday, you might ask, if you’re not American? Well, Happy National BBQ Day! Today, our banking system, our schools, many of our...
If you visit this blog with any degree of regularity, you know that I often discuss nuclear war, and more specifically, World War III. For some, the very thought is terrifying. It almost happened by accident in 1983, but sometime, and probably some time pretty damn soon, it won’t be...
Ask the Catholic X community about Bishop Michael Martin, who is the sleaze you see to the left. He is the head of the Charlotte, North Carolina diocese. Go ahead, ask his parishioners about him and you’ll likely find most of them are not exactly members of his fan club. ...
A lot of my visitors, especially those from the general Albany, New York area, know that I briefly made a bid for the mayor’s office. I had to bow out due to what I was told was colon cancer. This turned out to be wrong and was actually a severe...
It’s always a good day in America when illegals are scooped up, separated from their counterfeit families and kicked out of our country. Apparently, some people in the Albany area aren’t happy campers about that. That’s because today, people in the Cohoes area found out just how serious ICE is...
My frequent readers know that World War III is something that I discuss often on this blog. I am obsessed with learning about what goes on behind the scenes starting with the second our military detects a nuclear launch, especially from Russia. There are many articles from which to choose,...
My longtime readers know that I have absolutely no tolerance for drunk driving. I don’t associate with people do it and I don’t care about excuses, because there is never any acceptable reason to do that, especially in an era of Uber, friends and, on holidays, free rides. Given that...
It’s always interesting to research something that people consider to be a mystery. Maybe you’ll dig up some previously unknown information. Maybe you’ll just learn already-existing information. Well, there’s one thing going on in Russia that many people around the world consider to be odd and maybe even a wee...
Growing up, I was fortunate to live in a musically eclectic house, especially between the ages of six and nine. My grandmother would put all manner of records on her player. My absolute favorite music at the time was polka music. I didn’t know it at the time, but I...
With inflation and tariffs driving the cost of everything up, it’s no surprise that even the simplest of things will become more expensive. If you offer someone a penny for their thoughts, that won’t be good enough. That’ll now cost you a nickle. That’s because the Treasury is starting to...
Stories about people dying of cancer are absolutely heartbreaking, but it’s especially sad when a child dies far too young. So it is, sadly, with one Lucas Polsinelli, 12. Albany’s local ABC affiliate reported today that Polsinelli suffered from “B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia at the Melodies Center for Childhood Cancer...
When you’re dealing with wealthy young adults, you often deal with people who are privileged to the point of absurdity. So it is with this tale, a tale that took place in Florida. Big surprise there. It’s a bit of an old story, having happened last month. April 21st...
My longtime readers know that World War III is a topic that I’ve mentioned quite a few times. I’ve talked about the states set up by our military to first be sitting ducks and then be dead ducks. I’ve mentioned that our country will be dragged kicking and screaming into...
There a lot of things wrong with Mormonism. The most important thing that you need to know is that it is a false religion, if even a religion at all. Its founder and supposed “prophet,” Joseph Smith’s conduct was anything but Christian. Joseph Smith was the furthest thing from decent. ...
There are a lot of unhappy customers who thought Rite Aid would be around to meet their prescription needs forever. That is not the case. The troubled chain of drugstores and pharmacies within is about to throw in the towel and sell off its pharmacy holdings. What does this mean...
