Orator, consul, pater patriae — ut ipse non desinit commemorare. Catilinae coniurationem oppressit, rem publicam defendit dum potuit, et Antonii iussu occisus est. Nemo Romanus diligentius res novas ad leges maiorum exegit.Orator, consul, Father of his Country — as he never tires of reminding you. He crushed Catiline’s conspiracy, defended the Republic as long as it could be defended, and was murdered on Antony’s orders. No Roman measured new things against the ancestral constitution more relentlessly.

Cedant arma togae.

Tange imaginem: marmor in vultum vivum vertitur — a machina ex ipso marmore restitutum.Hover the portrait: the marble turns into a living face, reconstructed by AI from the bust itself.

Iudice foederali interdicente ne praeconia Donaldo Trump faventia pecunia publica spargantur, aperitur quantus furor sit tributa civium in factionis largitionem convertere.With a federal judge halting taxpayer-funded advertisements favoring Donald Trump, the unbridled madness of turning public revenues into factional largesse stands exposed.
