The John-Henry Westen Show

Once the first country to legalize abortion, Russia has undergone a sweeping moral transformation, slashing abortion rates from 5 million to under 500,000. In a candid interview from Moscow, Father Fyodor Lukyanov credits the Orthodox Church’s growing influence, and its alliance with state leaders for this pro-life shift. From mandatory heartbeat laws to regional abortion bans, Lukyanov describes a nation repenting of its past...

Journalist James Delingpole joins for a provocative conversation on the Fatima apparitions, exposing how truth is systematically suppressed through what he calls “satanic inversion” within modern institutions, including the Church. From evolution to environmentalism, Delingpole sees false ideologies replacing faith and truth with deception and control. He links abortion, mental illness, and global governance to demonic influence, a...

Natalia Moskvitna, founder of Women for Life, shares how Russia’s dramatic turnaround, from 2.5 million abortions annually to under 500,000, was born out of personal resistance to Soviet-era abortion pressure. Her organization has since saved over 9,000 children, offering women financial, legal, and emotional support while pushing for protections against abortion coercion. Unlike Western pro-life movements often detached from ...

In the shadow of the Kremlin, Catholics gather in prayer, echoing Our Lady of Fatima’s call for Russia’s conversion. Expatriates like Joseph and his family witness what they see as a spiritual renewal, grounded in Marian devotion and rooted in Catholic tradition.

A Catholic family explains why they left the U.S. to raise their children in Russia. Citing COVID’s devastation, collapsing Western values, and hostility toward large families, they describe the warmth and reverence they found in Russian culture. From pro-family policies to public expressions of faith, they found hope, order, and purpose abroad. Their story touches on Fatima, natural law, and the deeper battle for children’s souls ...

The fiercest battle today isn’t political, it’s spiritual. Demons aren’t metaphors but real enemies exploiting disorder, broken formation, and the collapse of traditional Catholic life. Instead of turning to the sacraments, fasting, and the authority structures within Church and family, many Catholics fall back on Protestant models of deliverance and emotionalism.

The infiltration of Marxist, feminist, and secular ideas ha...

Commander John Sharpe joins John-Henry Westen for a frank look at how Catholic just war teaching collides with modern U.S. foreign policy. A decorated Navy officer, Sharpe recounts his own “cancellation before it was cool” after opposing the Iraq War, drawing on Aquinas, Vatican II, and Leo XIII to argue that America’s wars often fail the tests of just cause, last resort, and proportionality.

He exposes how leaders exploit fear, lik...

Dr. Taylor Marshall joins John-Henry Westen to discuss his new book, Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV’s early papacy. Marshall argues that modern conservatism has failed because it severed itself from Catholic political philosophy, insisting true renewal must be grounded in Augustine, Aquinas, and the Beatitudes. He outlines a vision of Christian patriotism that defends marriage, family, and moral ord...

Father Jonathan Kopech issues a stark warning: digital devices have become a “gateway to impurity, which is to hell.” At LaSalle Academy, where he oversees more than 100 boys, he enforces a strict no-device policy, pairing it with spiritual formation, sports, arts, and communal life. Kopech calls pornography “the ultimate destroyer” of fatherhood, vocations, and family life, urging parents, especially fathers, to take up their grav...

Michael Hichborn reveals disturbing teachings promoted at the Association of U.S. Catholic Priests (AUSCP), from calls for women’s ordination to redefining sexual sin. He warns that this organized dissent against Catholic doctrine must be met with prayer, public witness, and appeals to Rome.

Dr. Hickson links the Fatima message to Vatican II, post-conciliar turmoil, and today’s decline in Eucharistic belief, stressing that Heaven’s request...

As on-set consultant and pastor of the filming location, Father Williams shares how the movie became an unexpected tool for evangelization, including quiet conversions and Al Pacino attending Mass.

Spitzer and top historians, they explore the tilma’s unexplained features, like the triple reflection in the Virgin’s eyes and pigments embedded in cactus fibers, through a lens of journalistic rigor and Catholic faith. What began as a curiosity quickly became a c...

John-Henry Westen shares a moment of personal failure, where he pretended to remember someone’s name out of pride, and uses it to confront a deeper spiritual danger: the fear of human respect. This subtle yet powerful temptation keeps many Catholics from speaking the truth, defending the faith, or even praying publicly. He reflects on how vanity, shame, and the desire for approval can silence our witness to Christ, drawing on examp...

Veteran pro-family advocate Peter LaBarbera sits down with John-Henry Westen to mark a sobering anniversary: 10 years since the Obergefell decision redefined marriage in America.
