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 […]

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 […]

The Week the Music Died

By Charlie Johnston Yesterday morning I saw the full video of Iryna Zarutska’s murder on the Charlotte train for the first time. Though not nearly as gruesome as I feared, it was one of the most heartbreaking things I have ever seen. The vicious man stabbed her in the neck from behind three or four […]

An Oasis Rises Amidst the Dust Storm

By Charlie Johnston You can do things quickly or you can do things solidly. Rare it is that you can do both. Joe Biden and his team came into power under the shadow of a dubious election of uncertain integrity. The left immediately took the “We have the power!!!” route and started doing all manner […]

The Cobra or the Tiger?

By Charlie Johnston When I first started writing publicly about these times, I emphasized that times were coming when bumper sticker sloganeering and puerile virtue signaling were not going to cut it. One of the few good things that came out of the manufactured Covid crisis was that, when faced with the loss of their […]

A Future and a Hope

By Charlie Johnston Waukegan, Illinois – On December 23, 2020, I wrote here that I thought the Covid Shots were likely to become the greatest medical disaster in modern history. My essay, “Embers in the Wind” is a fascinating read nearly five years later. In the first two paragraphs I vastly underestimated people’s tolerance for […]

A Convocation of Dragons, Part I

By Charlie Johnston Crossville, Tennessee – You’re going to want to bookmark these articles and save a copy so that, a year or three down the line, you can mock me for how wrong I got everything OR look back in wonder trying to figure out how I figured it out. I’m going to give […]

The Vanities are Hitting the Bonfire

By Charlie Johnston Louisville, Kentucky – Whoa! The establishment press is in a lather over losing its ability to decide who gets to sit where for White House briefings. Perhaps it would not have come to this if the White House Correspondents’ Assn. (WHCA) had not used its power to keep organizations out it did […]
