Summary
We’ve needed a speech like Marco Rubio recently gave in Munich (2-14-26) for a long time now. As a faithful Catholic of Cuban dissent, the perspective he laid out on the past and future of Western Civilization is critical and urgent. This speech may turn out to be one of the most historic of the 21st century—perhaps, rivaling Ronald Reagan’s “Tear Down this Wall” speech in 1987 at the Berlin Wall. Join us as we discuss why, as people of faith, it is imperative to support Rubio’s call to reclaim (and not feel ashamed of) our western political, religious, and cultural heritage. Notes from Dr. Therrien: “My apologies for saying ‘the Far East’ when I meant ‘the Middle East.’”“By using the word ‘reparation’ it is not meant in any way to mean paying out money to ancestors of enslaved people.”
