James O'Toole / The Rise and Fall of Confession in America (recording on YouTube/link below) networks.h-net.org/group/annou

James O'Toole / The Rise and Fall of Confession in America (recording on YouTube/link below) | H-Net
For generations, American Catholics went to confession regularly and in large numbers, admitting their sins to a priest and receiving God's forgiveness through him. The sacrament served as a distinctive marker of Catholic identity, shaping parishioners' views of their relationship to God, their neighbors, and the larger world. It gave them a clear moral framework for thinking about their own personal behavior. But starting in the 1970s, most Catholics abandoned confession altogether.

With the public outraged over the US-Israeli war with Iran, the Epstein Files coverup, and a cost-of-living crisis,
even Donald Trump’s base of supporters is fracturing,
and Republicans are fixing to get slammed in the upcoming midterm elections.
Perhaps that explains why Trump and MAGA Republicans are obsessively focused on attacking voting rights,
taking federal control over the electoral system,
and preemptively casting doubt on the midterm election results…

Start the steal? Inside Trump’s effort to rig the midterm elections
“As the president becomes more unpopular, his actions will become more extreme, but that doesn't mean they're going to be any more successful,” Ari Berman of Mother Jones tells us.

Good Morning #Canada
The 18th river in our countdown is the Albany River, known to the Cree as Kistachowan, which flows northeast from Lake St. Joseph in Northwestern Ontario and empties into James Bay. It is 982 kilometres long, tying it with the Severn River for the title of longest river entirely in Ontario. Dropping 371 m along it's length, and draining a watershed of 135,200 km2, it is one of the most pristine rivers in Ontario and a draw for serious #Canoe and #Fishing enthusiasts. Albany River Provincial Park protects the headwaters and a only a limited number of lodges are allowed on the river, which is known for its Pike, Trout and Walleye fishing excursions.
The river was named after James, Duke of York and Albany, who later became King James II of England. The land north of the Albany River was part of the Northwest Territories until 1912, when it was transferred to Ontario in the Ontario Boundaries Extension Act, 1912.

Good.
"Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul on Friday joined a coalition of 22 other states and the District of Columbia in a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's recent attempt to exert federal control over mail-in ballots and voter rolls.
"An executive order isn’t a royal decree," Kaul said in a statement. "The President can’t unilaterally dictate how states should run elections.""
