Tom Basile Joins Catholic Speakers Organization

In a notable development within the faith community, Tom Basile, a prominent anchor and opinion columnist for Newsmax Television, has officially joined the Catholic Speakers Organization. This announcement comes at a time when church attendance in the United States is witnessing a remarkable increase, particularly following the election of the first American Pope, Leo XIV. This shift signifies a renewed interest and engagement in sacred practices among the nation’s Roman Catholics.

Basile, who has been the face of 'America Right Now' on Newsmax since 2020, has cultivated a reputation as a compelling voice in discussions surrounding faith, politics, and policy. With over two decades of experience in journalism, he has covered critical national events, including presidential campaigns, the COVID-19 pandemic, and multiple presidential inaugurations. His extensive knowledge of church matters was amplified earlier this year when he provided in-depth coverage of the Papal Conclave from the Vatican, illuminating the event for audiences back home.

Reflecting on his new role, Basile expressed his belief that the teachings of Christ play a crucial part in not only personal lives but also the health of the nation. He stated, "We need Christ's truth in our lives and in the life of our nation. People are searching for meaning or they need reinforcement to help combat the secular forces that pull us away from Christ." He articulates pride in joining a motivational group that aims to spread a message that empowers individuals with guidance on living in accordance with God’s principles.

Joe Condit, the founder of the Catholic Speakers Organization, commended Basile's commitment to intertwining faith with the wider context of American freedoms. Condit remarked, "Tom believes to his core that there's a connection between our Catholic faith and ensuring our nation remains a beacon of freedom." His diverse experience in media, business, and government positions him as a vital entity in advocating for the Catholic Church’s role in preserving religious freedoms across the United States.

Basile's contributions extend beyond his television duties; he is an established columnist for The Washington Times and has been a contributor to other notable outlets such as the Daily Caller. His previous editorial work for Forbes from 2012 to 2018 underscores his extensive writing background and insightful perspectives on relevant issues.

His impressive resume also includes significant public service roles, notably during President George W. Bush’s administration, where he served in capacities at the local, state, and federal levels. Basile was awarded the Joint Civilian Service Commendation from the U.S. Department of Defense for his contributions during his time in Iraq. Recognized for his engagement in citizen participation worldwide, he was featured in Time Magazine's Person of the Year edition in 2011 focusing on global civic engagement.

As a member of the Roman Catholic Order of the Holy Sepulchre, holding the prestigious rank of Knight Commander with Star, Basile’s commitment to faith-based initiatives is demonstrative of his lifelong dedication. Furthermore, he will be honored with the Animas Award from the Salesians of Don Bosco in 2026, highlighting his contributions to church and community.

Topics that Basile is prepared to address include the vital role of the Catholic Church in safeguarding American freedoms, the implications of artificial intelligence and Marxism on human dignity, and confronting Christian persecution both domestically and internationally. He is also equipped to discuss ways to promote authentic Catholic masculinity and the importance of Catholic education.

Additionally, those organizing events can consider Basile as an emcee for significant gatherings or fundraising dinners, given his experience and engaging presence. Interested parties can learn more and book him through the Catholic Speakers Organization’s website, ensuring access to a speaker capable of enlightening and inspiring audiences across the nation.
