A Holy Priest



Priests have had a lot of bad press, to put it mildly, and much it self-inflicted and deserved. But don't forget the many holy men who lay down their lives for the flock, true shepherds. 72 year old Father Giuseppe Berardelli who gave his ventilator to a younger patient, was one of them.


"Father Giuseppe Berardelli died as a priest,” said one of the healthcare workers in the Saint Joseph retirement home where the priest lived. “I am profoundly moved by the fact that he, as archpriest of Casnigo, freely renounced his respirator to give it to someone younger than him.”
The priest died during the night of March 15 in the hospital of Lovere, in Bergamo, but his story only began to circulate on Italian media on Monday. Like many others who have succumbed to the disease, Father Berardelli already suffered from severe health complications.

According to Breitbart, some 50 priests have died in Italy and while you may be baffled, confused and shocked that I make no claims to sanctity, I'm inspired and humbled by the example of Fr. Berardelli. Greater love hath no man than to lay down his life for his friends.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory,

Putin For Czar



A top Russian priest has said what everyone else is thinking, that Russian strongman, Vladimir Putin, should level up and become Czar.

"We are a country with monarchic mentality," said Russian Archpriest, Vsevolod Chaplin, "It doesn't matter that we don't now have formal monarchy, I think we can re-make it with Putin on top."


Some Kind of Pathetic Joke?

American liberals, furious after their candidate's lashing in the recent election, have been trying to pin the blame for Hillary's crushing defeat at the the foot of the Russians, claiming that Putin's superstate somehow hacked into their emails and made them public.


The Last Czar, RIP

Czar Putin laughingly made light of the Democratic allegations, dismissing them and the dying Obama regime's aggressive expulsion of 35 Russian diplomats as "kitchen sink" diplomacy. 


Putin With an Adorable Chick

Czar Putin enjoys massive popularity at home and abroad.
