Cast Out Into the Deep

By Charlie Johnston It is a peculiarity of modern life that a lot of people have a very superficial knowledge about many things, but no depth of knowledge on anything. Then we have cohorts who have extreme depth of knowledge on certain niche subjects (usually technology) but little general knowledge beyond that. Weirdly, this combination […]

Prepare For a Great Blessing

By Charlie Johnston Long ago I saw that, at a decisive moment, our technology would fail. I’m no Luddite. I do not regard technology as either intrinsically evil or intrinsically good. It is just a tool which, like any other tool, can be wielded by its user for either good or evil. But we withhold […]

Woe to the USCCB (Matthew 23:4)

By Charlie Johnston Well, the USCCB, which could not bring itself to making a loud, full-throated call to support life, oppose transgender ideology, promote the traditional family and Biblical definition of marriage, has finally found something it can be full-throated about: demanding that American taxpayers cover all expenses for illegal aliens and quit the “indiscriminate […]

A Hope and a future

By Charlie Johnston (Though it covers some old territory as a preliminary, this is a foundational piece. If you read nothing else, please read the last paragraph of the first item. It is critical, going forward. Sorry it is so long. I just didn’t have time to write a shorter piece – CJ) When I […]

The Vine and the Branches

By Charlie Johnston I have written obliquely before of how disturbed I am at the rise of antisemitism in some quarters of the right and the traditionalist Catholic community. I’m going to be more blunt now. If you are afflicted with this, you have welcomed a demon into your counsels. Keep nurturing it and the […]

We Are God’s Beloved

By Charlie Johnston There was a fellow I collaborated on five or six big campaigns with. It was a great partnership most of the time. He loved the administrative duties – which often weary me. I loved strategy and the field, meeting people, exhorting them, unifying them, laughing with them and fighting together with them. […]

Spooking the Horses

By Charlie Johnston “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!” – Galatians 1:8 When an organization is fractured by deep divisions, I usually encourage a “Don’t spook the horses” policy for about a year. That […]

The Challenge Before Us

By Charlie Johnston Sheesh – the very day I write a piece saying that I am going to wait on making any significant judgment on where Pope Leo will fall, he ostentatiously blesses a huge block of ice in a suspiciously pagan-looking “climate change” event. Then he explains that anyone who supports the death penalty […]

Be of Good Courage!

By Charlie Johnston “Wait on the Lord, Be of good courage and He will strengthen your heart, Wait, I say, on the Lord – Psalm 27 A few people have asked me why I have written so little about Pope Leo XIV. I operate under the theory that the head of any large organization, […]

Go Forth!

By Charlie Johnston In 2006 I was involved in two Congressional campaigns, running one and consulting on another. I spent more than a little time at the Capitol Hill Club – the Republican legislators’ informal clubhouse in Washington, D.C. The campaign I was consulting on was a competitive district that leaned Republican. The one I […]
