The news that a group of feminist witches are planning to curse newly confirmed U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh are inspiring Catholics across the nation to spiritually support their fellow Catholic. During the vicious confirmation process (trial?), I added Kavanaugh and his family to my daily prayers. Today I sent out a Hallmark card saying "Congratulations" to the justice, mailing it to his Supreme Court office.

Elizabeth Warren and her Republican challenger Geoff Diehl met for their first debate on Friday night. Warren's DNA test came up right away, as she tried to spin it into an example of transparency. She also did her best to tie Diehl to Trump, but the most notable jab came from Diehl who hammered Warren's presidential aspirations.

Friday, a Russian woman was charged for allegedly interfering in US elections, including the 2018 midterms. The Department of Justice indicated that the criminal charges are not indicative of interference to the degree that electoral outcomes were swayed. Elena Khusyaynova, 44, is accused of attempting to "sow discord", "as part of a conspiracy that exploited thousands of social media accounts and emails that claimed to be owned by U.S. residents, authorities said," reports CNBC.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi received a less than warm welcome in Miami Wednesday. When Pelosi was headed into a meeting with Democrat activists and leaders, a group of pro-Trump Cuban Americans (as identified by the video's title), yelled profanities at her, saying, "F*cking Communist! You don't belong here, f*cking Communist!"

I wonder if the Democrats will react the same way they did when Christine Blasey Ford accused Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault. It looks like the Democrats have the same situation on their hands because Rep. Jim Renacci (R-OH), the man running against incumbent Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown, said that "multiple women" have told him that Brown allegedly sexually assaulted them in the late 1980s.

Failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton may run for a third time, according to aide Philippe Reines. The question is, do the Democrats want her? Hillary has done her best to stay in the limelight, inserting herself into the narrative, giving speeches and interviews, and going on a 13 city tour with her husband President Bill Clinton. Yet her approval rating remains low and some of her comments have had the left moaning and groaning.
