Daily Prayer:
O merciful God, take pity on those souls who
have no particular friends and intercessors to
recommend them to Thee, who, either through
the negligence of those who are alive, or through
length of time are forgotten by their friends and
by all. Spare them, O Lord, and remember Thine
own mercy, when others forget to appeal to it.
Let not the souls which Thou hast created be
parted from Thee, their Creator.
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through
the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.

Schwartz Investment Counsel, Inc., a registered investment adviser established in 1980, serves as investment adviser for Ave Maria Mutual Funds. The Adviser invests in securities only if they meet the Funds’ investment and religious requirements, and as such, the returns may be lower or higher than if the Adviser made decisions based solely on investment considerations. The Funds’ method of security selection may or may not be successful and the Funds may underperform or outperform the stock market as a whole. All mutual funds are subject to market risk, including possible loss of principal. The Funds’ investments in small and mid-capitalization companies could experience greater volatility than investments in large-capitalization companies. AVEWX invests in foreign securities and securities issued by U.S. entities with substantial foreign operations. Investments in these securities can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some foreign markets; fluctuations in foreign currencies; and withholding or other taxes. AVEFX invests primarily in fixed income securities and as a result the Fund is also subject to the followings risks: interest rate risk, credit risk, credit rating risk, prepayment and extension risk and liquidity risk. AVEAX and AVERX are classified as non-diversified and may therefore invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a limited number of issuers than funds that are diversified. At times, the Funds may overweight a position in a particular issuer or emphasize investment in a limited number of issuers, industries or sectors, which may cause their share prices to be more susceptible to any economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence affecting an issuer than funds that are more widely diversified. The issuers that the Funds may emphasize will vary from time to time. Request a prospectus, which includes investment objectives, risks, fees, expenses and other information that you should read and consider carefully before investing.

Today's Prayer:
O God, from Whose hands cometh the peace the world cannot give, give us the light to see that peace is the work of Justice, and the concord of all nations the fruit of obedience to Thy Law and Thy Commandments. May we seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love, that in pardoning we may be pardoned, and in giving we may receive. We pray for our President, for our Congress, for our homes, our people, our children, our brokenhearted, that we may be reverent in the use of freedom, just in the exercise of power, generous in the protection of weakness, merciful to those who have been our enemies. Not for our worthiness, but because of Thy tender mercy hear our prayer that we may so pass through things temporal as not to lose the things eternal, O Christ Jesus, Our Lord.
Monsignor Fulton Sheen on The Catholic Hour (published 1946)

In a recent memo ahead of the annual Climate Summit, Bill Gates considerably toned down the narrative of climate change alarmism, saying the main focus shouldn't solely be on the climate, but instead on improving people's lives. In this episode of The Deep, Erika discusses the rise and fall of climate alarmism. She dives into the history of the "global warming" apocalypse narrative, and turns to John Paul II to gain a proper human-centered approach to environmentalism.

Zohran Mamdami’s meteoric rise from a seemingly unknown state assemblyman to the next mayor of NYC signals a shift into a new era of politics. In this episode of The Deep, Erika breaks down how the age of social media is shaping the world of politics today. Is it dumbing down the electorate? Is it turning politicians into mere influencers whose success is based on their ability to go viral (instead of the quality of their policy ideas)? How should we respond to the "TikTok-ification” of politics?

In this episode of The Deep, Erika responds to a recent viral article by Helen Andrews titled "The Great Feminization." Andrews claims that the increasing number of women holding positions in institutions has directly led to those institutions becoming "woke." But is Andrews missing the point?

In this episode, Tom sits down with Seamus Coughlin, the creative mind behind FreedomToons, to talk about his brand-new animated anthology series Twisted Plots. From his early days animating satire online to building one of YouTube’s sharpest comedy channels, Seamus opens up about his influences, his thoughts on the collapse of modern comedy, and why he believes good stories can still change hearts and minds.
They dive into everything from The Titanic and Shawshank Redemption to South Park, Black Mirror, and even the hidden humor of the Bible — exploring what makes timeless stories stick, and why so much of Hollywood has forgotten how to tell them.

In this episode, nuclear engineer and lead researcher Bob Rucker applies over 40 years of scientific expertise to one of history’s greatest mysteries — the Shroud of Turin. Believed by many to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ, the Shroud’s mysterious image has baffled scientists for centuries. Bob reveals his nuclear tests and theories on how the image formed, explores its marks and mysteries, and considers what it would mean if it truly is the burial cloth of Christ.

Schwartz Investment Counsel, Inc., a registered investment adviser established in 1980, serves as investment adviser for Ave Maria Mutual Funds. The Adviser invests in securities only if they meet the Funds’ investment and religious requirements, and as such, the returns may be lower or higher than if the Adviser made decisions based solely on investment considerations. The Funds’ method of security selection may or may not be successful and the Funds may underperform or outperform the stock market as a whole. All mutual funds are subject to market risk, including possible loss of principal. The Funds’ investments in small and mid-capitalization companies could experience greater volatility than investments in large-capitalization companies. AVEWX invests in foreign securities and securities issued by U.S. entities with substantial foreign operations. Investments in these securities can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some foreign markets; fluctuations in foreign currencies; and withholding or other taxes. AVEFX invests primarily in fixed income securities and as a result the Fund is also subject to the followings risks: interest rate risk, credit risk, credit rating risk, prepayment and extension risk and liquidity risk. AVEAX and AVERX are classified as non-diversified and may therefore invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a limited number of issuers than funds that are diversified. At times, the Funds may overweight a position in a particular issuer or emphasize investment in a limited number of issuers, industries or sectors, which may cause their share prices to be more susceptible to any economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence affecting an issuer than funds that are more widely diversified. The issuers that the Funds may emphasize will vary from time to time. Request a prospectus, which includes investment objectives, risks, fees, expenses and other information that you should read and consider carefully before investing. The prospectus can be obtained by calling 1–866–283–6274 or it can be viewed at www.avemariafunds.com. Distributed by Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC.

Jimmy Kimmel is back on air after his show was initially suspended due to misleading and insensitive comments he made about Charlie Kirk’s killer being part of the “MAGA gang.” Following Charlie’s death, the conservative movement felt a strong surge of unity, but the situation with Jimmy Kimmel was the cause of argument and disagreement among those on the right. Was this free speech? Was it a violation of free speech for the FCC to pressure ABC to cancel Kimmel’s show? But the most important question after this incident is a broader one: what is it that conservatives continue to get wrong when engaging with their opponents in situations like this? In this episode of The Deep, Erika discusses the need to establish unity in strategy on the right and she lays out 6 rules for effectively engaging with our opponents.

Hey Guys,
We wrote this script before watching the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk. Charlie was known for many things, but he was most proud of being a husband and a father. His mission went beyond winning votes, he passionately advocated for marriage and family as a core fabric of our country, a message he preached to thousands of young Americans. If you see this, please pray for his soul, his wife, and his two kids.

Schwartz Investment Counsel, Inc., a registered investment adviser established in 1980, serves as investment adviser for Ave Maria Mutual Funds. The Adviser invests in securities only if they meet the Funds’ investment and religious requirements, and as such, the returns may be lower or higher than if the Adviser made decisions based solely on investment considerations. The Funds’ method of security selection may or may not be successful and the Funds may underperform or outperform the stock market as a whole. All mutual funds are subject to market risk, including possible loss of principal. The Funds’ investments in small and mid-capitalization companies could experience greater volatility than investments in large-capitalization companies. AVEWX invests in foreign securities and securities issued by U.S. entities with substantial foreign operations. Investments in these securities can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some foreign markets; fluctuations in foreign currencies; and withholding or other taxes. AVEFX invests primarily in fixed income securities and as a result the Fund is also subject to the followings risks: interest rate risk, credit risk, credit rating risk, prepayment and extension risk and liquidity risk. AVEAX and AVERX are classified as non-diversified and may therefore invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a limited number of issuers than funds that are diversified. At times, the Funds may overweight a position in a particular issuer or emphasize investment in a limited number of issuers, industries or sectors, which may cause their share prices to be more susceptible to any economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence affecting an issuer than funds that are more widely diversified. The issuers that the Funds may emphasize will vary from time to time. Request a prospectus, which includes investment objectives, risks, fees, expenses and other information that you should read and consider carefully before investing. The prospectus can be obtained by calling 1–866–283–6274 or it can be viewed at www.avemariafunds.com. Distributed by Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC.

The crew breaks down Pope Leo XIV’s first speech to the cardinals, where he explains his name choice and sets a fiery agenda for tackling the “new revolution” of AI—focusing on human dignity, justice, and the common good. Josh shares his firsthand experience at the Pope’s audience with journalists (yes, there were jokes!), while we unpack Leo’s Mother’s Day homily, his call for peace during the Regina Caeli, and his brother’s wild MAGA antics on Newsmax.. Good news? Erika’s basically Pope Leo’s mom, and Josh celebrates the EPA nixing that annoying car shutdown feature and… does the Pope have to pay taxes?
