Why Demons Hate Strong Fathers
The fiercest battle today isn’t political, it’s spiritual. Demons aren’t metaphors but real enemies exploiting disorder, broken formation, and the collapse of traditional Catholic life. Instead of turning to the sacraments, fasting, and the authority structures within Church and family, many Catholics fall back on Protestant models of deliverance and emotionalism.The infiltration of Marxist, feminist, and secular ideas has weakened men, replaced fatherhood with performance, and left the domestic Church exposed. True spiritual warfare demands clarity, discipline, and a return to the sacramental and doctrinal weapons that have always been the Church’s arsenal.U.S. residents!

USA Heading Toward World War 3?! Catholic Veteran Speaks Out
Commander John Sharpe joins John-Henry Westen for a frank look at how Catholic just war teaching collides with modern U.S. foreign policy. A decorated Navy officer, Sharpe recounts his own “cancellation before it was cool” after opposing the Iraq War, drawing on Aquinas, Vatican II, and Leo XIII to argue that America’s wars often fail the tests of just cause, last resort, and proportionality.He exposes how leaders exploit fear, like the infamous “mushroom cloud” threat, to bypass moral analysis, leaving soldiers, families, and nations scarred. The conversation ranges from the false logic of punishing nations for possible future crimes, to the bipartisan collapse of moral coherence that saw Pat Buchanan and Noam Chomsky aligned against Iraq. With ties to Versailles, the Balfour Declaration, and today’s Middle East turmoil, Sharpe urges Catholics to reject propaganda before another war is waged under false pretenses.U.S. residents!

Taylor Marshall speaks out on the Pope Leo and James Martin SJ Meeting
Dr. Taylor Marshall joins John-Henry Westen to discuss his new book, Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV’s early papacy. Marshall argues that modern conservatism has failed because it severed itself from Catholic political philosophy, insisting true renewal must be grounded in Augustine, Aquinas, and the Beatitudes. He outlines a vision of Christian patriotism that defends marriage, family, and moral order while reviving authentic teachings on just war and liberty. The discussion turns sharply to Pope Leo’s recent meeting with Fr. James Martin and approval of an LGBTQ+ pilgrimage, which Marshall calls “a punch to the gut” for faithful Catholics.Learn more about Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV’s early papacy, and get the book here: https://amzn.to/46kTqqU.S. residents!

Fatima’s Third Secret: Apostasy, Liturgy, and the Unfinished Warning
Drawing on insights from Cardinal Burke, Father Charles Murr, and testimonies from those close to Cardinal Ratzinger, John-Henry Westen and Dr. Maike Hickson revisit the long-disputed Third Secret of Fatima, questioning whether the Vatican’s 2000 disclosure revealed the full message. Dr. Hickson links the Fatima message to Vatican II, post-conciliar turmoil, and today’s decline in Eucharistic belief, stressing that Heaven’s requests, the Five First Saturdays devotion, and the precise consecration of Russia, remain incomplete. Far from a past relic, Fatima stands as a living prophetic call, urging Catholics to respond before the warnings are fully realized.Sign up for the 1st Saturday Devotion Series: https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/100-years-ago-our-lady-made-this-request-time-to-start-now/U.S. residents!
