For its day reserved in the Assembly on October 30, 2025, the Rassemblement National chose to place first on the agenda a text aimed at "denouncing the 1968 agreements" with Algiers, putting the right and the Macronists in a dilemma: support the far-right or contradict themselves.

‘The best approach for Hungarian politicians is to try to help Romania find a new path. The globalist path that the country has been on for the past two decades is coming to an end. Romania needs to figure out new ways to engage with a new world. The country can no longer rely on external alliances or foreign financial inflows. It must fight for its future and its prosperity.’

Abandoning the Original Mission

‘In recent years, the European Union has been seeking the glamour of international politics. It wants to behave like a great power, while its vocation should be to organize close cooperation between sovereign states. It wants to wage war when its mission is to bring peace. Under the current leadership, it has abandoned its mission as set forth by the Founding Fathers, and this could cost it its existence.’

Mainstream Media Awkwardly Spin Mormon Church Shooting into MAGA Blame

While mainstream media screams ‘MAGA lunatic’ after the Michigan Mormon church mass shooting, the truth tells a different story. Thomas Jacob Sanford was not driven by Trump but by animosity toward Mormons. Contrast that with left-linked violence—like the ICE shooting or Charlie Kirk’s assassination—where ideology was scrawled on the very bullets.

‘It isn’t clear what can be done to reverse this dynamic of polarization and derangement.

And if we can’t screen out the most deranged voices online, we can at least try to resist their provocations.’

Absolutely not.’

‘Given the sexual curiosity of people today, especially among the youth, there is a pressing need for the Church’s shepherds to speak with clarity on such matters.

The Perils of Dehumanizing Russia—and Western Hypocrisy Behind It

French President Emmanuel Macron’s remark calling Vladimir Putin ‘an ogre at our gates’ marks a dangerous shift in Europe’s war rhetoric.

Munich Analogy Blinds EU to Reality of Trump–Putin Summit

European leaders’ obsession with the Munich analogy ahead of the Trump–Putin summit is turning history into a political crutch. Leaders warn of appeasement, yet ignore the radically different context of today’s war, risking self-imposed irrelevance in peace talks and handing strategic advantage to Washington and Moscow.
