ENERGY CHIEF PROMISES END TO OIL INFLATION NIGHTMARE!
Energy Secretary Chris Wright discusses the concerns over oil prices amid the Iran conflict and the latest on the U.S. pressure campaign against Russia during ‘Fox News Sunday.’
Energy Secretary Chris Wright addressed the spike in oil prices driven by fears surrounding the Iran conflict and disruptions in the Straits of Hormuz, attributing the surge to a temporary "fear premium" rather than a genuine shortage. He emphasized that the world is well supplied with oil and natural gas, noting that the United States is a net exporter of both, and forecasted a return to more regular ship traffic through the critical shipping lane within weeks. While acknowledging current market volatility stemming from U.S. pressure on Russia and geopolitical tensions, Wright remained confident that the supply disruption is short-lived and that global energy markets will stabilize soon.

Edgardo Mortara Kidnapped from Jewish Family after Secret Baptism (1858)June 23, 2026
Mortara, the son of a Jewish couple living in the Papal States, was secretly baptized Catholic as an infant by a panicked servant during an infantile illness. The baptism was deemed valid by the Catholic Church and, because canon law forbade non-Christians from raising Christian children, Pope Pius IX ordered the six-year-old Mortara to be taken to Rome as his ward. Several countries objected to the pope's decision and called for the boy to be returned to his parents. What became of Mortara?

Erich Maria Remarque (1898)June 22, 2026
Drafted into the German army at age 18, Remarque served in World War I and was wounded several times. From his experience of trench warfare, he drew a grimly realistic picture of the horror of battle in his first novel and masterpiece, All Quiet on the Western Front. It was an immediate international success, and Remarque went on to write several other novels. All Quiet on the Western Front was later burned by the Nazis, who guillotined which of his family members in 1943?

Stonehenge Summer Solstice CeremonyJune 23, 2026
Stonehenge, the ancient stone circle located in Wiltshire, England, is believed to have been built between about 3050 and 1600 BCE. At the Summer Solstice, when viewed from the center of the monument, the sun rises through the entrance and just between two of the large stones. Today, modern Druids and other Neopagans gather at Stonehenge for Summer Solstice ceremonies. Wearing white robes and scarlet hoods, when the first rays of the rising sun shine on the Altar Stone, they walk in procession around the circle, gathering at the Altar Stone to recite prayers and salute the rising sun.

The Bucket ArgumentJune 22, 2026
In addition to establishing the foundations of classical mechanics and introducing his law of universal gravitation, Isaac Newton's 1687 text The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy explored his rotating bucket argument, which has been studied by scientists for centuries. In it, he opposed the dominant view of motion—devised by Rene Descartes—that space is actually the extension of matter. How did Newton use a hypothetical bucket to try to make his point?
