Murdered by the Russians: his crime? Refusing to conduct for them after their invasion of Ukraine. Your Tatler, who loves music with an unequaled passion, including Russian music, sees no reason listening anymore to performances by Russian Tartar artists, live or recorded, until all that nation’s artists renounce the unspeakable crimes committed against the UkrainianContinue reading “Scratch a Russian and find a Tartar.”

Something? Anything? From Just the News. [Sen. Charles””] Grassley said the scheme “to compensate the Bidens was supposed to consist of an unsecured $5 million loan, intended to be forgivable, from CEFC in 2017.” The senator said his office has information that a few months before the $5 million was paid “Hunter Biden yelled atContinue reading “Are these people capable of doing anything ethically?”

Nike founder Phil Knight, who’s suddenly shifting his political donations away from the Democratic Party for being too “far-left,” said he’s all in with a non-Dem being in the Oregon governor’s seat after years of radically left policies. And haven’t we heard this before, for two-squiillionth time? Knight, a long-tenured Democrat, admits that he’s notContinue reading “Knight unto Day.”

So cumbersome and besides, what’s the point now? From Fox News: The New York Times tweeted out a rhetorically charged description of Wisconsin’s U.S. Senate race candidates that led to familiar charges of bias against the liberal outlet.  Leading into the Thursday night debate, the Times sent a tweet that labeled Republican Sen.

Pass the popcorn. From the Washington Times: President Biden will travel to Pennsylvania next week to campaign for Democratic Senate hopeful John Fetterman, the White House announced Thursday.

Just say no to censorship. Bickerstaff just deleted his 22 year account with the Ministry of Truth and Thought Police, also known as PayPal. He is in astonishingly good company.

It speaks for itself. The essay below is taken from the New York Times. As it may be behind a paywall, it is copied below in its entirety. It provides a sober and rational retrospective of the past calamitous 60 years in the Holy Catholic Church. It is vital, if not pleasant, reading. h/t WJT.Continue reading “Ross Douthat looks back on Vatican II.”

Evil, no matter how imposing, can be conquered. Amid the growing deterioration that surrounds us, both in and out of the Church (and they are interconnected), we must not lose hope. A reader reminded your Tatler of that and of the signal event which took place on 7 October 1571, the Feast of the HolyContinue reading “They haven’t won yet.”

News from your Tatler’s former home. From the Post: A soulless thief pick-pocketed a dead man crushed by a truck in Manhattan — as ghoulish onlookers cheered her on, video obtained by The Post shows.
