Excerpted paragraphs from Loyall Phillips on the birth of Jesus and the enduring message of mercy and hope. The piece reflects on the Christmas story as history’s greatest news and its impact across two millennia, noting the humble origins and global reverence.
The yearend message celebrates Christmas as a time for humility compassion and tolerance. It urges kindness toward others, the pursuit of peace, and universal brotherhood beyond faiths and stations in life.
The Gray White House standoff reshapes the FBI with Louis Patrick Gray promoting new aides while veteran chiefs depart. Four top officials announce retirement as Gray seeks steadier control amid partisan spins and potential successor talk.
The memory describes 1920s Thomasville with central heat rare, families using fireplaces, homemade decorations, and simple gifts for children. Fireworks on Christmas stand in contrast to church carols and the era’s simple joys, with memories of candlelit trees and family readings of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas'."
John Chamberlain recalls Harry S Truman in Washington era debates over Nixon era scandals. He cites Five Percenters, Vaughan loans, ballot box cases, and Caudle as part of a turbulent backdrop. The piece praises Truman's leadership on Marshall Plan, Truman Doctrine, Berlin Airlift, and Korea against Cold War pressures.
Marianne Means assesses Walter Mondale as a rising but little known figure in 1976 Democratic prospects. The piece argues repetition, weak field, and Mondale meeting basic candidate criteria propel attention, while name recognition remains his challenge.
Mondale plots to expand his national profile with advisers and travel as he eyes upgrades to his Senate staff and a possible Finance Committee seat. He may aim for broader leadership roles, though a White House bid remains unconfirmed.
