“With some 32 million Americans – nearly 10 percent of the population – identifying as being Irish in a 2020 U.S. Census Bureau survey, there is a strong incentive to celebrate the ancestry and heritage of so many people. St. Patrick’s Day has traditionally provided the occasion for both celebration and contemplation. It is certainly a time to cheer but it is also a chance to look back and consider a relatively small place that has been so important to the development and history of the U.S. Many Americans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries considered themselves ‘exiled children’ from Ireland, and that sense created an enduring bond,” said Robert Schmuhl, Professor Emeritus; Chair in American Studies and Journalism, University of Notre Dame.

"Nancy Pelosi has been and is the target of millions of dollars in Republican political ads. She has been called the devil and worse. The attack on her husband showed what can happen when such negative views turn into hate-fueled actions." Robert Schmuhl, an expert on American politics from the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, told Pravda. ("Nancy Pelosiová bola a je terčom republikánskych politických reklám za milióny dolárov. Označovali ju za diabla a dokonca jej hovorili aj horšie.
