# Catholic Conscience 2.0: The Republican Party’s Last Call
*2021-01-06*

> Bill Young and John O'Rourke discuss the fallout from the 2020 election, the importance of contacting senators, and the “Patriotic Rosary” as a spiritual weapon for Catholics.

## Opening Prayer

Bill leads a prayer to the guardian angel, asking for protection, guidance, and the grace to serve Christ faithfully until death, and to be welcomed home to the Father.

## Election Aftermath and Political Frustration

The hosts lament the recent Senate runoff results, expressing disappointment over the loss of Republican seats and the certification of the election by Vice President Pence. They discuss the perception of a stolen election, the ongoing controversy over vote counts, and the sense that the Republican Party is in crisis.

## Calling Your Senators

Bill shares a toll‑free number (866‑220‑0044) that listeners can use to leave messages for their U.S. senators, urging them to demand a review of the election evidence in swing states such as Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and others.

## The Patriotic Rosary

The duo explains the “Patriotic Rosary,” a version of the rosary that includes a Hail Mary for each of the 50 states, the President, and the Supreme Court. They invite listeners to pray it on Zoom at 4 p.m. and to join local churches in this spiritual effort, describing it as the only “weapon” Catholics have in the current cultural battle.

## Concerns About the Future

Bill and John warn that a Democratic‑controlled government could threaten religious liberty, gun rights, and other freedoms. They cite proposals to add new states, expand Medicaid, and other policy changes they view as dangerous, urging Catholics to stay vigilant and pray.

## Final Thoughts

They close by urging listeners not to lose faith, to keep praying the Patriotic Rosary, and to continue contacting their representatives. Bill reminds everyone of the phone number for leaving messages for senators and thanks John for joining the last‑minute show.

*Even in political turmoil, Catholics are called to protect their faith through prayer and active civic engagement.*
