ROME, July 24, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – In what critics see as an attack on the Catholic Church’s moral teaching, the successor of Cardinal Carlo Caffarra at the Institute on Marriage and family founded by John Paul II has been dismissed and the institute’s course on fundamental and specialized moral theology has been eliminated.
Named after a saint. Shut down by a . . .
Marriage and family matters.

Lede of the day (week? month? in a long while anyhow):
House Democrats hoped that Wednesday’s hearings would allow them to highlight their favorite portions of the Mueller report for people who haven’t read it.
Democrats didn’t expect this segment of Americans to include the author.

We’re from the government, we’re here to take your house.
(Apologies to memory of Ronald Reagan.)
Politicians can’t afford to ignore growing public resentment of excessive property taxes, a powder keg that needs only a spark to explode into a full-fledged tax revolt with unpredictable consequences.
What did they expect?
Later: Dear old Oak Park has led the way:
For a glimpse of what’s to come for much of metropolitan Chicago, look to west suburban Oak Park, where property tax bills often exceed $10,000 and can range far higher. Home sales in Oak Park fell 22 percent in the first half of 2019, median selling prices dropped nearly 12 percent and houses sat on the market almost 40 percent longer than they did in the first six months of 2018. As Rodkin reported, Oak Park realtors blame sky-high property taxes for sending buyers elsewhere.
Beware.
There they go again, pushing leftism with alleged news story.
