Why is USCCB not calling the Department of Defense by its acutal name? Is this some kind of "non militia sed malitia" rhetorical move?

I'm not seeing it. The fundamental problem is Congress has capitulated to the President. Another problem is the Supreme Court has decided Congress can't create any kind of official the President can't fire.

Article: "Because France fields Europe’s only independent deterrent, it has produced the continent’s first major political leader willing to weaponize a nuclear force against a U.S. ally." The author has four graduate degrees and no concept of the Cold War.

This is what's been perplexing me since Hegseth launched the war on beards. Operator beards were a big thing! And more generally, beards were part of how many conservative men presented themselves during Trump 45: his sons, Ted Cruz, etc.

I mostly appreciate this account's work, but here it's misleading. Trump claimed he was evacuated from the U.S. Steel Building across the street from the WTC complex (which was rumored to be in danger of collapse on 9/11). He did not claim he was "lifted out of the rubble" of the WTC itself.

Was just talking with a friend about how jeans, a red checked button down shirt and a newspaper from that day is an easy dead Mitch McConnell Halloween costume and now she sends me this:

The scene from Devil Wears Prada where Emily Blunt and Gisele Bundchen are dressed like stylish snobs asking straight brown haired Anne Hathaway what she’s wearing only now Hathaway is in a red checked button down and the print says “are you wearing the MIT…” “the Mitch McConell proof of life photo ensemble? Yes I am.”

Notice the author's sleight of hand in calling MMA revolutionary then putting MMA in the same category of "combat sports" as boxing to tag in Norman Mailer and Fidel Castro as supporters. But boxing is not revolutionary!

The GOP entered this redistricting under the rather childish delusion they were going to gerrymander, and nobody would gerrymander them. In TX, MO, and a half dozen other states, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind

It's probably too much to hope for, but I'd like to see just war theory removed from the Catechism, rethought, and (if it must remain) articulated much better.
