We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
I heard about this meeting then found out it actually happened. Had Grok give a run down.
Cardinal McElroy — Labor Day Sermon, September 6, 2026
Sermon details
• Date: Sunday, September 6, 2026
• Location: Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle, Washington, D.C.
• Organized by the Catholic Labor Network and the Archdiocese of Washington; reception co-sponsored by the D.C. labor federation
Who attended the Silicon Valley trip
• Cardinal Robert McElroy — Archbishop of Washington
• Cardinal Blase Cupich — Archbishop of Chicago
• Cardinal Joseph Tobin — Archbishop of Newark
• They spent several days in August with the leaders of the AI teams at the so-called frontier labs. The engineers spoke openly about AI’s destructive elements, including the work question.
Was the meeting secret?
• Yes — unannounced at the time. The only source that mentions it, Letters from Leo, says explicitly it was “a trip no outlet has reported.” Nothing surfaced in August from the archdioceses, the labs, or the press. It only became public when McElroy brought it up from the pulpit on September 6.
Job losses and the next 10–20 years
• The labor market will radically change over the next 20 years
• Certain sectors will essentially be wiped out by AI
• Manual labor and social-service work are the ones he said will survive
• Millions of workers who have jobs now will not have those jobs 10 years from now
• His charge: society has to be at the table so the wealth doesn’t keep concentrating with fewer and fewer people at the expense of the working class
Azerbaijan: This Turkish country has destroyed more Christian monuments than ISIS.
Based off satellite data, Azerbaijan erased 108 Armenian monasteries, churches and cemeteries - in just one region.
By comparison, ISIS destroyed dozens of churches.
How is this okay?

📝🇮🇱🗳 CIA Report Warns Israel Could Head Toward Civil War, Total Collapse
Israel is at risk of civil war or state collapse, a classified CIA assessment warns, as years of genocide in Gaza and war in Lebanon and Iran deepen political, economic, and social fractures within the country.
The August report, titled “Fracture From Within,” was compiled by experts in the CIA’s Red Cell, according to two U.S. sources who described the contents of the report to Drop Site News. The Red Cell, which is the unit responsible for providing “alternative analysis” within the agency, produced the assessment through a combination of open source information and U.S. intelligence. The assessment appears to refer only to Israel’s Jewish citizens and does not consider its Palestinian citizens, who make up approximately 20% of Israel’s population and who live under various forms of discrimination that Amnesty International and other human rights groups have labelled as part of a broader system of...
American wages are not keeping up with inflation.
US average hourly earnings adjusted for inflation fell -0.3% YoY in September, marking the 5th consecutive decline in real wages.
This follows a -0.2% YoY decrease in August, -0.3% in July, and -0.8% in June, the largest decline since May 2023.
This marks a sharp deterioration from +1.3% YoY growth in real wages recorded in February.
This all comes as US CPI inflation has remained above +3.0% for 6 consecutive months, the longest such streak since mid-2024.
Meanwhile, in nominal terms, average hourly earnings rose +3.0% YoY in September, their slowest growth since May 2021.
Nominal wage growth has been in a downtrend since March 2025, when earnings grew +4.2% YoY.
Inflation is eroding the spending power of Americans.

🦠 🇷🇺 🇺🇸 US closely monitoring case of lab worker who ‘possibly’ died of plague in Siberia, says Rubio
Darya Shipilova, a 28-year-old employee at the anti-plague institute in the city of Irkutsk, became ill at work. She died two days later on the night of 2 October at a regional hospital in the nearby town of Shelekhov.
It remains unclear how she became unwell. Unconfirmed reports in Russian media have suggested Shipilova may have been infected after a mishap at the laboratory. Officials have not publicly confirmed that account.
Local media have reported that the institute has subsequently been locked down, with staff forced to sleep on the floor and on chairs. “They’ve been isolating everybody since Friday – more than 60 people,” one relative, Roman, told the news portal Siberia.Realities.
He said family members were allowed to drop off food at a checkpoint while tests were carried out inside the building. Similar quarantine restrictions have been placed on several ...
