Usha Vance Visits Olympians, Paralympians
On Thursday, May 28, 2026, Second Lady Usha Vance visited the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to promote childhood literacy and her Summer Reading Challenge.
At Team USA’s world-class training venue, the Second Lady was joined by two-time Olympian and six-time World Champion wrestler and mom, Adeline Gray, in reading “If You Can Dream it, Be It” by Team USA Bobsled Pilot Riley Tejcek to a group of local students.“What an honor it was to visit such an incredible space and meet the Team USA athletes who are representing our country so well. Team USA fosters excellence and inspires children to fulfill their potential – something I also hope to cultivate by encouraging childhood literacy,” said Second Lady Usha Vance.
“It was great to welcome the Second Lady and a group of local children for their first experience at the Olympic & Paralympic Training Center. As a mother myself, inspiring kids to be curious, dream big and develop a love for both sport and reading is incredibly important,” said Adeline Gray.
The Second Lady is an avid supporter of Team USA and traveled to Milan with Vice President JD Vance in February for the 2026 Olympic Winter Games.
As part of her efforts to combat summer learning loss among students, the Second Lady recently visited AcadeMir Academy Charter School West in Doral, Florida to read to students and collaborate with faculty.
Additionally, the Second Lady launched a new podcast called “Storytime with the Second Lady,” where celebrities and special guests read children’s stories. Recent guests include Paralympic medalist Brent Poppen, NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, actor Cheryl Hines, Inter Miami CF Soccer Player Ian Fray, and her mother, Dr. Lakshmi Chilukuri.

James Talarico In His Own Words
Here's what Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico has actually said:
-Used the Bible to say the Virgin Mary would support abortion.
-Declared Jesus Christ was a “radical feminist”.
-Says atheists are “more Christ-like” than Christians.
-Called men in women's sports a "far right conspiracy."
-Thinks illegal aliens are “more Patriotic” than Americans.
-Called the border a “giant welcome mat”.
-Wants to abolish prisons.
-When asked what he thinks about besides family, he said “trans kids”.
A Special Message From Rev Franklin Graham
Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico couldn't be more wrong! The Bible is not silent on abortion as he claims—that's an absolute lie. God commands us, "You shall not murder" (Exodus 20:13). Abortion is taking a life—it is murder. The Word of God tells us we are created in the image of God and consistently underscores the value of human life. Jeremiah 1:5 says, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart..." In 2021, this same Democratic candidate opposed a bill to ban men from women's sports, saying that "God is non-binary." Don’t be deceived by wicked politicians spouting lies like this.
-Reverend Franklin Graham
Washington Nationals Shun 'Very Catholic' Player?
![]() |
Washington Nationals pitcher Trevor Williams is a faithful Catholic. On social media, he describes himself with the beautiful phrase “Servus Christi”— Servant of Christ.
According to a disturbing report, a senior Washington Nationals executive was caught on camera saying the team does not use Williams in certain social media content because of his Catholic faith and his public defense of Catholics against anti-Catholic mockery.
What was his crime to deserve this punishment? Williams stood up when the Los Angeles Dodgers chose to honor a group infamous for mocking Our Lord, Our Lady, the Eucharist, priests, and religious sisters. You know that because you probably were there, supporting CatholicVote when we decided to publicly confront and call out the Dodgers.
And now a Nationals executive has reportedly admitted that, because Williams is “very Catholic” and spoke out, “we don’t use him on social.”
If this is true, this is religious discrimination.
As Terry Schilling, President of American Principles Project, said on X, this is important because such things can happen anywhere: on sports teams, on school boards, and the boards of corporations nationwide.
CatholicVote is demanding answers and immediate action from Washington Nationals owner, Mark Lerner.
But I also want all of us to do something more; something unmistakably Catholic...
Let’s stand with Trevor Williams.
Amplify his voice by following him on social media:
On Instagram: @mellamotrevor On X: @MeLlamoTrevor
Then leave him a strong message of solidarity and encouragement: You are not alone. Millions of Catholics are grateful for your courage. And we are praying for you.
This is how Catholics respond: We demand justice…and then we build something good.
The message to the Washington Nationals is clear: Catholics will not be quietly pushed out of public life.
Go forward bravely, |

State Lawmakers Condemn Kim, Sherrill Actions
New Jersey State Assemblyman Gerry Scharfenberger and Assemblywoman Victoria Flynn (NJLD13) issued a strong condemnation of several state leaders participating in protests at the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark on Memorial Day, a solemn occasion dedicated to honoring the estimated 23,000 to 25,000 New Jersey residents who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to the United States.
The lawmakers expressed concern over escalating tensions at the facility and questioned the decision by elected officials to participate in a highly charged political demonstration on a day intended to remember fallen American servicemembers:
“New Jersey residents are watching scenes of disorder and confrontation that should concern every citizen who values public safety and lawful conduct,” said Assemblyman Scharfenberger. “There is a significant difference between peaceful protest and conduct that interferes with federal operations or places law enforcement officers in unsafe situations. Political leaders should be working to calm tensions, not fuel them.”
Assemblywoman Flynn said the timing and involvement of high-profile elected officials on Memorial Day sent the wrong message to the public:
“Memorial Day should be devoted to honoring the American heroes who sacrificed their lives for our freedoms,” Flynn said. “Instead, Governor Sherrill, Senator Kim, and others chose to insert themselves into a highly charged political demonstration surrounding a private detention facility that has existed for years under various operators and has faced scrutiny long before it housed ICE detainees.”
“This facility did not suddenly appear overnight,” Flynn continued. “Delaney Hall and similar private detention operations have been the subject of criticism and public concern for many years. It raises the obvious question of where many of these same elected officials were before the facility became a national political talking point tied to immigration enforcement.”
Scharfenberger and Flynn reaffirmed their support for peaceful and lawful expression while emphasizing that intimidation, obstruction, and disorder cannot be tolerated:
“We are still at a loss as to why anti-law enforcement rhetoric became the priority of these officials on such a solemn day,” the lawmakers added. “Security personnel and law enforcement officers perform difficult responsibilities under challenging circumstances. The rule of law must apply equally to everyone, regardless of politics or political connections.”
“The Governor and members of Congress possess significant authority and numerous avenues to pursue policy changes through legislation, oversight, executive action, and the courts,” the lawmakers continued. “There is no need to engage in public spectacles that appear designed more for press coverage and political theater than constructive solutions.”
On Live TV, Gutfeld Eviscerates Sherrill And Kim
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld launched a blistering attack on New Jersey Sen. Andy Kim and Gov. Mikie Sherrill after both Democrats appeared outside the Delaney Hall immigration detention facility during Memorial Day protests against ICE operations. Here's what Gutfeld said:
“So that’s how they spent their Memorial Day? … The message is clear. Illegal immigrants, no matter how criminal they are, take priority over dead soldiers. We would rather foment anti-American spectacles on Memorial Day. Do I care that Andy Kim got pepper-sprayed? No, I don’t care. You are doing this on Memorial Day, champ. You’re actually participating in something that undermines our country’s security.
You know, a veteran was murdered a few days ago. You didn’t give two turds about that. I don’t care about you. What Kim got was what he wanted. He wanted the attention off of Memorial Day and on him. But it’s not going to change the way we feel about him or anything else. Here’s the deal: this is all designed… All this that we know.
This and we’re not scared of it anymore. That’s the beauty of it. It doesn’t bother us. But it’s designed to create a visual spectacle, an obstacle that then pressures you into submission. Then when the spectacle happens, they go, ‘Look! Look what the policy is creating! Look at this chaos! Isn’t this awful?’
This went on in Minnesota. We can go through all that. But it’s the visual chaos that they claim is being caused by the deportation. No, it isn’t. The visual chaos is caused by them. It’s like if I throw a party and you bring a gun. You can’t blame me for my party leading to gun violence. You brought the violence there, you scum.
