Catholic media has become incredibly politicized in the last 25 years or so, and all on one side, the far right (naturally). EWTN, Relevant Radio, Ave Maria Radio, Ignatius Press, the National Catholic Register (not to be confused with the National Catholic Reporter)--it's all of a piece, funded by reactionary billionaires like Tom Monaghan and Tim Busch.

"Spiritual warfare" and an obsession with "sinister, wicked, and demonic forces opposing Donald Trump" are what you will hear 24-7 on most Catholic media. There really is no moderating force on these groups. And it has been clear for some time now that reactionary and radtrad Catholicism has the attention of the Trump regime and it is exerting significant influence on its policy decisions. Karoline Leavitt is just one small example of this.
