How MAGA Rhetoric Went Viral in Europe
Imagine scrolling your social feed and seeing political debates about France’s elections, Germany’s nationalist rise, or far-right gains in Italy and Poland — all tied, at least in part, to the influence of America’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement. What started as an American slogan transformed into a global conversation about nationalism, identity, and political strategy, generating massive public interest, academic analysis, and viral news cycles across the United States and Europe.

Why the Greenland Crisis Became the Most Viral Geopolitical Story of the Year

That’s exactly the story gripping global headlines in early 2026 — the Greenland crisis — and it’s gone wildly viral.

The Alberta Government Strikes Again
At coffee this morning, there was some rather vibrant talk around the table of the Alberta Government and its latest dealings with teachers in the province. This discussion led, of course, to a replay of a conversation held on a previous date around the same coffee table in the same restaurant. If I recollect correctly, I think it all went something like this.

THE GLACIER AND THE FIRE. AI-Generated.
Greenland has never known true silence. Beneath the apparent immobility of its frost-laden shrouds, the island throbs with a millennial movement—a muted language composed of tectonic cracks, abyssal currents, and aeolian rages. But this murmur of genesis, once reserved for the Arctic’s initiates, has shifted into a clamor of a different sort. It is no longer merely the song of ice collapsing into the Atlantic or the groan of the ice cap thinning under the assault of carbon; it is the thud of boots and the cold calculations of general staffs. It is the roar of covetousness. Greenland, this white giant once thought to be slumbering on the fringes of history, has become the epicenter of a geopolitical earthquake capable of shattering the West. What is unfolding today is no longer a mere diplomatic rivalry, but the specter of a total rupture within the Atlantic Alliance, where the rights of peoples vanish before the logic of the strongest.

The Hour the World Went Quiet
It began with a flicker. Not of light, but of absence. The hum of my devices—the soft chime of messages, the buzz of updates, the endless scroll of curated lives—simply stopped. At first, I thought it was a glitch. I tapped screens. Checked cords. Restarted everything twice. But the silence held.

How to Begin a Relationship with Jesus
Step 1: Find a quiet space Begin in a place where you can notice yourself. This could be a room, a park, or the space between heartbeats. The quiet is not about absence of sound but about presence of attention. Bring no agenda, only awareness. The first step is to show up.

Scripture and Tradition: Why Catholics Need Both
One of the most distinctive features of Catholicism is its understanding of the relationship between Scripture and Tradition. Some people assume that the Bible alone is enough for Christian faith, but Catholics believe that God’s revelation comes not only through the written Word but also through the living Tradition of the Church. Scripture and Tradition are two channels of the same truth, working together to guide the faithful toward God.
