Weaponization Committee kicks off with a bang; FBI caught infiltrating mainstream religious groups; Russia prepares for the real war; no tanks for Ukraine; Musk pulls Starlink and gets investigated.
David Had To Pick Up that River Rock. "Who" will answer The Lord's War Cry??? just asking for a friend that has bruised turned cheeks sitting in the Feral DC Gulag. My apologies, there should be some Men left in the country, they seem to be as scarce as hen's teeth. Me included,
And David was a kid!! Geez! His father sent him with food for his brothers who were fighting against the Phillistines. When David got within ear shot of their encampment he heard Goliath proclaiming victory over them, "they would forever be slaves....." Then David arrived and observed the Israelite army...cringing at every word and paralized with fear! What did that little shepherd boy David do? He reminded them who they were! "You're God's Army!! God is on our side, He will win this battle!" They lead him to King Saul's tent when he said he would fight Goliath. Saul told David to wear his armor...too big, too heavy, impossible! Coward King Saul. David refused the armor and went out to handle the giant who was sure he would singlehandedly kill the Israelite army. David retrieved 5 stones from the brook and loaded his sling...ONE STONE...ONE! David took aim and that ONE STONE struck Goliath and did the job an entire army could not! Remember, Goliath had continued to remind the frightened and trembling Israelite army, that they would be defeated and become their slaves. But God! When the stone struck Goliath between the eyes he FELL FORWARD...not backwards....
In death Goliath bowed down to the Israelite army! David's chastisement of the army of Israel surely stung! God was victorious because David, a young boy, trusted God's promises and he defeated the giant Goliath, because he believed he could. God fights our battles, we act on God's direction.
I continue to pray for those in the DC gulag. I pray that God will strengthen them, watch over them and fill them with strength to withstand every arrow! I pray for those who persecute them. I pray for the justice system. I pray that through God's infinite power and mercy, they will be vindicated! I trust God. I know He will right the wrongs. I pray for righteous lawyers and judges to spring up among them as God can indeed change hearts! I pray that those suffering will be encouraged, will not lose hope, and that their resolve will be strengthened beyond any measure one can imagine! Let the light shine into their prison cells and all that hides in the dark be brought out! That truth will prevail!
That doesnt mean that we won't suffer...God was with the hundreds of thousands of Christians persecuted in the first centuries after Christ, was with the even larger number of Christians persecuted in the Soviet Union, etc. Our country may never be the same, but we can pray and perhaps in prayer and repentance, stave off the inevitable. πππ
Indeed and Amen. Many are and have been suffering not only from losing misguided friends and family members, being censored, and having careers destroyed. Many are suffering from covid and vax-related injuries and deaths. And yet we are tremendously blessed weβre at least not governed by Islamic fundamentalists who literally kill Christians for being Christians. Before that day comes to America, we should thank and praise God for sparing us the worst persecution, and while we still live, call on His power to help us stand, resist, and change course. Not as if our lives depend on it but because our lives depend on it.
Investigations, interviews, etc...all squashed as most of these players cry out the fauci amendment...I don't know, I don't remember, I don't recall, they made me do it, I never said that, and a thousand other excuses.
None of these perps are going to end up in any serious trouble. As they have lied during the last 3-4 years, so shall they continue to do so. There are NO consequences staring them in the face. The system from top to bottom is broke, broke, broke.
Until I start seeing 20 year minimum prison terms with no parole, I remain highly skeptical of these follies.
When I watched and they opened their mouths to utter the words βI donβt recall, I didnβt say that, I canβt answer that, I donβt knowβ blah blah blahβ¦.. I lost my cool yelling βLIARβ at my computer screen. Every. Single. Time. Liars, lies, and more lies. You canβt remember? Right. Ppffttt.
Countries entered into a hideously asymmetric contract with Pfizer, using their sovereign assets as collateral to ensure silence. I'll believe the Thailand story when I see it.
Our ways are not God's ways, and we rarely see things go according to our preferred script. What we need to focus on now is the fact -- and it is an obvious fact -- that evil is being unmasked everywhere around us and that the best medicine for an infection, which this is, is to be opened to the sunlight and air. Look at poor Pete, in the picture above, fixing to ruin the lives of two babies, and look at the vindictive bureaucratic retaliation against Musk while the body parts of murdered babies, pulled apart without anesthesia, are marketed and sold at taxpayer expense.
The depth and breadth of evil all around us is staggering, and prosecution, even highly visible prosecution, of this or that perpetrator is not going to have any impact whatsoever on the demonic machinery behind this. But simply ferreting out the corruption and putting it on display in this way, so that more and more people become aware of its sheer, repulsive magnitude, that will first create a hesitancy on the perpetrators to continue behaving like monsters with impunity. Then, at first slowly but more and more quickly over time, we will see the useful idiots realize what they have been a part of, and they will quietly withdraw their support for evil. Finally, some of the fellow travelers will switch sides, if only to join up with the strong horse, and that will leave only the true party members, the sociopaths like the Obamas and the Garlands and the Pelosis, all of whom will go back to their holes to lick their wounds.
That's is what we have been praying for and what we must keep praying for. That, by all indications of the moment, is how this is going to go down.
Jeff Childers, please please comment on this. Might there even BE any consequences for these people as they are grilled by Subcommittees, etc? Is there even a way that could happen?
On serious note, there was a monumental mess left upon conclusion of Nuremberg 1.0, the mess never properly cleaned up (nor intended tbh). A mere faΓ§ade of Justice π We live very much in its aftermath π€·
No difference then and now. The laws are just being completely overlooked like they donβt exist. This EU was and is still illegal. If the so called jabs and Plaxovid treat the disease then they canβt have an EU. This is Why they blocked therapeutics such as ivermectin, hydroxychloriquine and the convalescent plasma. They manipulated every bit of data so sinister.
Interesting how lefty organic-food hippies now love GMO shots and demand endless war against Russia. They now get bi-monthly mRNA injections as they tweet praise for the blood spilled in Ukraine.
Fortunately:
Matt Gaetz just introduced a resolution calling for a Russian-Ukrainian peace deal and an immediate freeze to all Ukraine war spending.
Yes the complete βre-facingβ of the left generally can be seen as a mass behavioral operation, and a cultural warfare adjunct. To transform the once peacenik crowd into Russophobes howling for blood is a achievement.
Beyond political power objectives, the disparate factors which influence many to accept CAGW are well studied social phenomena such as; personal wealth, and Institutional wealth. Researchers in many fields know that funding is available for their department if they can attach theoretical CAGW harm to a paper. (There is hundreds of billions of dollars a year available for research and industry) As often quoted Upton Sinclair said β'It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.β Other known and studied bias factors are peer pressure, social and professional shadow-banning, confirmation bias, noble cause corruption, misuse of the precautionary principle, and effective propaganda of repeated and false warnings of doom by many CAGW proponents.
βThe terrible truths of these experiments in human compliance and propensity to be beastly stand testament to the nature of the problem.β
milgram showed us how people will harm people if pressured by authority
asch showed us that people will ignore their own senses and perceptions when pressured by peer group
stanford showed us how easily humans can be egged into abuse of powerβ
As the world grows ever smaller via human technology, human systems and corporations grow ever more global. It is logical therefore that systems of human corruption can and would also became more pervasive and global in scale. The merge of One world Government and international business is not to be trusted. These people endlessly proclaim how they are doing this for the good of the world.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baronβs cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good, will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven, yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very βkindnessβ stings with intolerable insult. To be βcuredβ against oneβs will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease, is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.β
This is so bizarre, I think the same way. What happened? Itβs obvious people didnβt just change their mind overnight but they are being led and manipulated. A psyop of the first order
0bama (and whoever was pulling his strings) happened, coopting the republican misdeeds for use to help the Marxists. That takes money, so they got in bed with multinational corporations and the press. He coopted social media with State Dept GEC for the Arab Spring and the govt got comfortable and took over those platforms using CISA and DHS. He took over our elections with machines, throwing our cash at states to do it, while condescendingly declaring it "impossible" to rig a national election, knowing it was already in the works. I could go on.
BHO was a senate dead space. His political career was manufactured and he was a puppet placed in the WH. He knows he is a fraud, and he knows we know, but he came out pretty well despite being exposed. Sunshine and truth will be his, and Mike's, undoing.
Thatβs why the leftist will never stop with their rules for radicals, community organizations like ACORN which Iβm sure is operating under different names. Itβs world wide. The leftist have been taking a sip of our soda little by little while we went on with our lives. This is deeply embedded with big money like never before. I hope universal law plays out.
The bad news is that US intel is directing the whole thing. The worse news is that it is directed at *us* the citizens of the once free United States. The worst news is that they're EXTREMELY proficient.
They didnβt change. They were only for those things based on trendiness among people in their groups and now that jabs and war are trendy in those groups, theyβre for jabs and war. Itβs not based on any actual principles, only based on what is acceptable and the in thing with the group they belong to.
It's always been able who has the power, for good, mine or yours. If you have the power and i get little gain then I'll protest until ppl see that they want what i want. Then when I get what I want I'll have power over you who wanted me in power and now you protest but we are all old and those who come behind don't know how bad canned food is vs home made and home is too boring and too hard and no kudoos enough to gain power so gimme free canned just enough to make me hate your enemies. π€ͺ
So true my patient got a booster in her first trimester and no worries but wonβt use all natural products for oral hygiene! I have those who wonβt take any meds hate big pharma but say I got all my shots! Mental condition.
I need to use natural products due to cirs , biotoxin mold illness and many autoimmune issues acquired after a booster shot for work years ago. My boosted mom thinks Iβm just being trendy, sigh. Truly cognitive dissonance. I pray for the babies.
Rosalind. Wow, we have another thing in common. Iβm also healing form mold illness and cirs. Iβm so surprised to see anyone mention those particular dx! Mine isnβt from a vax. Some other complex of root causes. But hey, I want you to know I understand the struggle. Keep on with the efforts. Youβll find your way. β€οΈ
Truly inexplicable. Maybe something in the water haha. Fluoride? Elevated intake is neurotoxic and affects cognitive function. Iβve been filtering mine π
We did blow it up. We threatened it, we did it, and now we brag about it. To me, neocon ideology isnβt much different than commie ideology. Both are built on manβs hubris.
I donβt think we are bragging about it and they arenβt admitting it. Interesting how Germany isnβt livid maybe thatβs why they wonβt pony up tanks etc. We so meddle. All SA countries flipped commie. Its the leftist sneaky way to get the pendulum swinging in their favor after indoctrination and covid failures were used to sway voters. Slick SOBs.
Wait, WHAT?!? I thought Ukraine was right on the verge of "winning"? ππ How could the Ukrainians have lost ANY territory to the Russians, since they are (paraphasing your words)
"airbursting artillery tearing through Russian infantryman. Destroyed dozens of brand new Russian tanks. Hundreds of Russian bodies. And not even a *single victory*, Russians are furious on Telegram!"
But now "Ukraine needs better weapons to take back *territory lost to the Russians".
Oops! Something's not right with these stories, Benji.
I think most Americans are all about protecting AMERICAN BORDERS! Not the BidenCrimeFamily's money laundering playground.
"How about an independent news source rather than a telegram channel?"
You literally posted a "news site" run by the Russian government.
Independent? Laughable.
Can you answer why the pro-Russian groups are furious and want the leader of the Eastern Military district sacked? They keep sending thousands of men and vehicles into mine fields only to retreat and be cut down by artillery. They show blatant disrespect towards the Eastern Military District commander, some dude named Muratov, for sending human waves in 2023. It's hilarious.
5 Russian brigades attacked Vuhledar and were massacred.
According to the Russian government they defeated Ukraine back in February of 2022 2 days into the "special military operation" and everything is going according to plan. Men are breaking their legs to avoid going into Vuhledar because it has been turned into the Fort Duaomont of southern Ukraine.
Why is active combat still going on?
If you want to talk about war crimes let's ask why Russia abducted tens of thousands of children from Occupied parts of Ukraine and intentionally targeted civilian structures.
When the USA invaded Iraq in 2003 there were a few set goals in place. Depose Saddam. Replace the government with a democratic one. Defeat the military. Gain control of the entire country.
Russia's goals in the beginning were similar, except they intended to annex all of the coast including Odessa, turn Ukraine into a rump nation with no army, no navy, and no airforce, much like Belarus, and a puppet government. Deport the population, crush their identity, and replace them with Russians. Russification at its finest, in 2022.
If the USA had invaded Iraq, made it to baghdad, been pushed back to almost the starting point, Saddam was more popular and going on live TV roasting Bush, the Iraqi army was more powerful than before, the Iraqi army was pushing the USA back in several areas and had defeated the USA in several large battles, and the USA was over 11 months behind on it's goals and having to conduct a national draft to fill manpower qoutas would we really be winning?
The USA threw numerous human wave attacks of 18-22 year olds from Georgia and they were crushed with enormous loss of life.
"Oh but the USA has 20% of iraq!" (it's actually about 16 percent, including what was already held before)
That's immaterial because we intended to occupy the entire country in a few days and have the entire country to partition as we pleased.
"The USA is grinding the Iraqis down!"
Umm, we are having to conduct a national draft and lost 1730 Abrams tanks, a carrier flagship, 137 THOUSAND men, got routed in 3 major battles, and lost hundreds of planes and helicopters.
We are now resorting to putting m48 and m60a1 tanks back into service.
Iraq would be winning and rightfully so.
But here we are.
354 days later into Russia's 3 day war and Russia is putting Pantsir ADA units on the top of the Moscow Russian military headquarters.
Because they're winning.
Russia is losing this war and showing how strong the west and nato is.
Tic Toc, there are "other" Players in the World besides just Us. CYA, no time to dilly dalley.
Russia is sending a very clear warning to the neoclowns. Not because they expect the evil morons to heed them, but to give the people of the West one last chance to stop following the wicked satanists down the pathway to Hell.
That's the only solution, isn't it? That the civilian realize that kinetic WWIII and the absolute destruction of civilization is being forced by our so called "leaders" and, through our continued apathy and inaction, we will be the midwife of the end of modern civilization.
Russia's new offensive is a failure before it even started.
Could you atleast pick someone competent to shill for, phil?
The drone videos are horrifying. Men being run over by their own tanks and vehicles as they first one finds a mine then the rest come under 155mm arty fire.
The Ugledar catastrophe as a new round of the military history of Russia.
It's amazing how persistently we burn the T-90 in anticipation of the Abrams and Leopards, in the hope ....
Just in hope.
It is obvious that there was a calculation for the development of events near Ugledar to support the offensive near Bakhmut-Artemovsk, but it did not happen.
That is why, and also according to the results of the offensive near Kremena, a general offensive is not launched.
Will start or not in the coming days, the question remains open.
Up to 500 thousand people were pulled together along the entire front.
But with such planning... Hope will commit suicideβ
No. The grey zone is a channel run by Wagner and theyβre absolutely furious over the 155th being thrown into suicidal charges over vuhledar.
Ask yourself why Russia, despite launching human wave attacks into bakhmut, still canβt take the city
Ask yourself why they are stealing ammuniton and tanks and APCs from Belarus to outfit new BTGs because the ones sent originally were destroyed.
Ask yourself why Russian telegram channels are so angry over vuhledar and insulting the Russian MOD and also complaining over severe artillery shortages and gun rounds for BmpS.
I have a gay BIL. He actually left the country to avoid a DWI and hot check arrest back in the late 70s. (My MIL turned him in upon arrival back in the states. π) He did the gay bar scene in the 80s-90s (during Fauci's AZT Reign of Terror), long hair, smoked dope ->>SCREW THE MAN, Man! Now, drives a Prius, is "up to date" (5?) on all cv jabs, still wears a mask, has a Ukraine flag on his FB profile, feels sorry for "those poor asylum seeking migrants". His health is truly failing, gained almost 50-70 lbs in 18 mo, has infected, non-healing surgical wounds from 9 mo ago, that just "baffle" the doctors. Facing a "clean out surgery" (whatever that means) soon. But WE are the crazy tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorists. π Yeah, I don't understand, even understanding how propaganda works.
Meanwhile there was always a Christian generally conservative group also against GMO food and into herbs and natural health -- and they still are. I guess they had a steadier basis for their values. I'm one of them.
the FBI MUST be gutted. The CIA MUST be gutted. They no longer serve the people. They are political weapons against the people. There should be no sacred cows. The FBI and CIA with all of their crimes against humanity seem to always just get a smack on the hand but what is really needed is for Congress to end the FBI and one day when we hopefully get a decent real American loving President he/she will shut down the CIA as well as many of the unconstitutional federal agencies like to DoE, DoEd, EPA, HHS and many more need to be shut down completely.
I totally agree but it's never going to happen. I'm not being negative. I'm just being realistic. It's just like the elections. Does anyone think the 2024 election will not be just as rigged, if not more, as the elections of 2018, 2020 and 2022? To think otherwise is to divorce one's self from reality. It will take a MAJOR push back from the states, lead by the Governors, to make that kind of change and we're not there yet. Clown world will continue as long as the Nazi/Bolsheviks are in power.
I will hold fast to the promises of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who will never leave me or forsake me.
God is on the throne! He knows exactly what is happening. He appoints the world's leaders. He knows what they'll do, how they'll act and how it will end. He uses evil people to accomplish good despite what man thinks. He will prevail! He wins.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers Him out of all of them.
Ha, love that line. - I'm going to use it. Because after awhile, we even begin feeling like pessimists, when it's just that we know too much. Realists, love it.
My husband has ALWAYS called me a pessimist, while he, admittedly, is an extreme optimist. When it became clear what was happening, I realized I'm not a pessimist but a realist and always have been.
There is no uncorrupted agency and few uncorrupted politicians to do the "gutting".
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it"
I would have substituted the word "Obligation" for "Right" in Jeffersons timeless document. There is nobody to correct this situation but US. The responsibility for the future is OURS.
The American people are about as worthless as the government. Most Americans would rather take the easy way and just obey. I am always amazed at how much abuse Americans are willing to take oh and aside from yelling at the TV (which they should throw in the trash) they will do nothing to protect the future for their children.
This is the biggest problem. The American PEOPLE. I don't recognize them. Especially since, where I live, they're still mostly masked and repeat like robots, "This is a private business we require masks masks are required here" without considering FOR A MOMENT that our country is now lying in the dust and they are the agents of that destruction. When did the American people become Communists?
Any business that requires a mask does not get my business. Any business that refuses to take cash does not get my business. In the future this will be more and more of a problem but I will eat grass from my back yard before I give in to these genocidal sociopaths. I do not think the American people have become communists......it is worse than that. They have become obedient sheep who would rather be slaves than fight back or disobey. The Christians believe God will not allow our demise to happen but that is not true. God has commanded the demise of many people in the Bible when they turned away from God's word and lived in sin. God expects us to fight the battle on earth to fight against the sinners. He will decide the outcome but it is WE THE PEOPLE that must do the right thing in the eyes of God or we shall feel his wrath.
I agree, but here in Seattle every single medical establishment (even if there is just a hint of a medical connection) proudly refuses service to anyone without a mask. We don't wear them, but that means we cannot go to a doctor, so we better not get sick (or need physical therapy, or dermatologist). My kids were kicked out by our dentist of many years because I refused to mask them (for 5 seconds crossing the lobby). I have a friend who is worried her cancer has come back but she refuses to mask so she cannot go to the doctor. People who wear masks have NO IDEA the persecution we still endure with this issue of conscience. The disheartening part is the finality and robotic indifference with which these un-American mantras are repeated by the mindless masses. It's sickening.
Try going to a doctor outside of the communist state of Washington. You might have to travel a bit. I would advise your friend to contact a state legislator but in Seattle you don't have much of chance with them either. There are places your friend could go and get care without wearing a mask. Any doctor that refuses treatment because of refusal to wear a mask needs to be brought up on charges but Americans just don't go there. I know I would be making a phone call before I left the parking lot to a good attorney and file charges with the medical board. They took an oath to DO NOT HARM. You could always put a for sale sign up and move to a more freedom loving state. I did it. Left family and friends behind and moved to TN 13 years ago. I saw the handwriting on the wall well over 20 years ago.
She's a fighter. She filed Notice of Violation papers to the perp who refused her service that same day. Here in Seattle we're using Common Lawful (commonlawful.com) papers like toilet paper, serving them to mayors, city council members, CEO of Boeing (in his own home out of state), governor...and medical tyrants. No constitutional lawyers in WA state who will take the cases, or judges who will rule justly, but the hope is these notices will come back to bite them when they seek to distance themselves from their criminality.
Ok, here's my great story about that. Hearing aids: In Oregon the Costco won't let you in the testing booth without mask. So I planned to visit my daughter in Bellevue, WA so called their local Costco just in case. Yes, they didn't require mask so I bought new aids there. Then they needed adjustment so on a trip to Idaho I got that done. Now my local Costco does the grunt work, servicing and cleaning, without having received the benefit of the sale. Yes, medical might mean some traveling now but it's doable. Most other basic medical don't require a mask here in S OR even tho it's still a state (fake) rule. I even went to a doc in liberal Eugene and not only no mask, they had the Oregonians for Medical Freedom brochure in waiting room!
That is the dumbest argument people keep using, I canβt stand hearing it! So if a private business requires female patrons to wear a burka or everyone to wear a bondage dog collar thingy or high heels or overalls to enter (and those are not even MEDICAL DEVICES like masks are!), people would be ok with that?? And I am not talking specialty shops where they could just say, βwell I just would t shop there.β
No, regular supermarkets and other stores that most people need to go to for food, medicines, etc. There is absolutely no reason that any private business should tell people what specific items of clothing to wear, let alone a medical device!! (And I know, people use restaurants requiring a jacket and tie as examples but those are mostly outdated and donβt really represent any particular burden to wear).
We both must have been responding at the same time. During COVID I NEVER wore a mask. Food stores will bring your bags to the car and you can order on line. But I went into the stores and guess what not one person said anything to me. There is always an alternative. When I went to the doctors or dentist I refused to wear a mask and at times had to wait outside until my turn but that was ok with me. I was not going to put a filty rag on my face that caused more harm than good just because these robots said so. And when we run out of alternatives that is because Americans have become slaves obeying the orders of their masters. Americans are not stupid people. We have invented things over the years that have made us a country that everyone wants to come to so what makes us think these people do not still exist. They are already starting (albeit too slowly) alternatives. My state of TN has legislation this year to create a state bank, a gold depository and the ability for Tennesseans to use gold and silver as currency to pay taxes. This is the kind of stuff and power the states have if they would grow a spine and follow the Constitution. The ONLY legal tender is gold and silver and it is clearly stated in the Constitution. Learn to grow food is probably the most important thing we could do. There are a lot of foods that grow without seeds. Carrots, garlic, onions, strawberries, avocadoes, potatoes just to name a few.
My mask story. My daughters and I were put on the "no fly" list for Alaska Airlines because I refused to mask IN THE AIRPORT (except to check in at Alaska desk and of course I was going to mask on the plane). Airport is different jurisdiction from Alaska. Alaska employee chased us down in the concourse and demanded we mask. When we refused, because he is not an authority in the airport, he canceled our flight without telling us, and they wouldn't tell us where our luggage was. We got in the car and drove THAT DAY to Phoenix. My husband won't mask ever and had cops called on him (and he's called the cops) just to check out groceries. He couldn't go to work either. I could go on...I've been screamed at numerous times, cursed loudly (by men), physically threatened (by men), and have been refused service far too many times to count. We ordered groceries too, but we didn't lock down, so we went on road trips, etc. and had many interactions. We are quiet, law abiding people who hate confrontation. The "land of the free and the home of the brave" is as dead as the Constitution is.
Ugh Iβm sorry you had to go through all that π I was denied entry to several stores and given dirty looks but never physically threatened or screamed at. This is why I think the health departments need to have power taken away and also businesses who want to institute these rules should be prevented from doing it.
I agree that what happened was disheartening, but on the other hand, I think a lot of people also have had their eyes opened since. So I am not quite as pessimistic.
I really donβt understand the buying online as a βprotestβ though, to be honest. You are still rewarding the store with your business and still playing their game by their rules. It doesnβt hurt them at all. Itβs as if black people during the civil rights movement had said, well, if they refuse to serve me inside that restaurant, I will just sit outside. How would that have any effect? Why would they even care? Allowing them to exclude you from in person shopping based on a medical choice is accepting a violation of your rights imo.
We didn't accept it but some days you're just too tired to fight. Some days I'd rather starve than go through that again. But we do have kids who need to eat.
Oh yes I totally get that. It does wear you down and some days itβs certainly tougher than others π I got so tired of fighting with stores, schools, legislators, everyone, sometimesβ¦ But you still did so much more than most people!
Well I admit I did wear a mask initially because where I was, you would get thrown out for not wearing one and I refuse to shop online for groceries. Thatβs just as bad imo, marginalizing people and making them stay out of stores. It should always be my choice to pick out my own produce or whether I prefer to have someone else do it. When the rules became more relaxed and the mandates went away, stores still supposedly required them but by then I also knew enough and had bad enough experiences with masks (high blood pressure spikes for one) to refuse and by then stores were less gung ho about applying the policy. I still got yelled at but it didnβt go any further. My parents were refused service at the only grocery store in their town when they didnβt mask and didnβt have a delivery option. So itβs not always that easy and thatβs why I think we need to push lawmakers to codify this, so that businesses cannot require it and health departments wonβt have that power either.
I did not say to shop on line for groceries. You go to your supermarket website and sign up. you order stuff from the grocery store and select a pick up date and time. You open the back of your car and they just put the groceries in your car. You don't even get out of your car. When they are done close the door and drive away. I even tried to offer a tip one time and was told they are not allowed to take tips. Many many stores offered pick up service but people needed to get out of their box and find one. EVERY grocery store where I lived offered pick up service. And when I traveled to PA same thing. Even in rural TN they offered pick up at all supermarkets. Lawmakers are bought and paid for. We have to stand up and fight back. Stand outside the supermarkets and stores that require masks and picket their business. Search for alternatives even if that means you have to travel a bit.
Itβs pretty much the same thing π€·ββοΈ You even said you order on the grocery storeβs website. You never go into the store. My point is, I WANT to go on the store because I WANT to see the products and choose them myself. I donβt want someone else to do that for me, whether I get it delivered to my house or pick it up outside the grocery store.
That said, I definitely will have a stronger reaction if this ever happens again. I realize now I shouldnβt have gone along with it at all. I was mistaken in what I initially thought. I wouldnβt have gone along with it at first if I had known more about the masks and hadnβt believed the droplet theory at first. After a few weeks and things going on and on, I came to realize more about what harm masks did. So yeah some of us didnβt have your brilliant insight at the very beginning and were a little late to the party. And no, my parents did not have delivery available in their rural area. Their house is too far from town and on a dirt road. So it may be possible in many places but it isnβt everywhere.
Picking out my own bananas is not as important to me than my freedom. If I could rely on the American people to refuse to shop in these places I would not have to resort to ordering my food and picking it up because the store would either change its policy or go out of business but way too many Americans masked up and were too lazy to even research the dangers of the mask which were much worse than COVID and the people that remained sick were those that masked up and took the injection.
I think with hindsight, what was lacking was an organized resistance. I am sure we would have had more of an effect (and people who would have been too scared to resist alone wouldβve been more apt to do something) if weβd had groups unmasked or picketing/protesting and things like that. There were more people than I thought who didnβt agree with all the draconian measures but thought they were alone so couldnβt do anything (a tactic Hitler understood and used very effectively against people). Hopefully we will be able to stop it happening again by getting together and using our strength in numbers. The shrill supporters of Covid policies do not outnumber us imo. And the ones who are apathetic will just go with the stronger side. We need to be the stronger side from now on.
But youβre still shopping there? Just not in the store (unless Iβve misunderstood something?). So I donβt understand what difference it makes to refuse to shop inside the store but still buy your groceries from there. Ok you donβt wear a mask but the store isnβt losing your business so how is that changing anything? They donβt care, theyβre still getting your money. It just perpetuates the problem rather than solving it imo.
And I do agree that it was not helpful that most people just wore the masks, and said if you donβt like it shop online. This is why I am for prohibiting businesses from imposing medical interventions on customers. They should be sued for discrimination at the very least.
That and venting on social media. Sometimes, I believe THAT'S the reason SM was created. To provide a way to vent off pressure rather than taking try physical action.. People don't realize they're all screaming into a black hole.
β...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. ...β
Americans did not even have the intelligence or back bone to refuse to wear a useless germ breeding mask on their face and even worse on their children and you expect them to stand up and overthrow this corrupt government? There is NO ONE in DC that is going to stop the crimes because both ALL R and Ds are on the same side of the fence. The only answer is from WE THE PEOPLE but Americans no longer have what it takes to defend our country. I wish it were different but I have been an activist for freedom and liberty for decades and I have been extremely disappointed in the lack of back bone among the American people and because of this we will eventually be a slave class once again.
Some people like yourself can see the consequences of actions. Other people require the actions to hit them. The transistions from knowing and writing to knowing and doing is underway. Slow as molasses to Us, but is Rapidly as well as Unexpectably to others. We must continue in this march as well from writing to doing. Keeping in mind only 30% of the populace, historically, is needed for action. We have that %+ right now, it's just a coiled spring.
As in 1775 the bottom line issue remains the same, there is more than hope ......
Well Iβm not too thrilled to have to hit bottom with them. Thatβs what it might take. Watching whales wash up dead with these turbines. I live 15 minutes from Brandon at the beach. They want these in our ocean here and guess what! All the energy will go to Maryland! You canβt make this stuff up. Seeing that we alone lived paper bags to plastic back to paper bags again. I have had enough of their bs.
I agree I have hope. I see things surprise me, some positive hope comes our way as this Marxism unfolds. When legislation comes up my dad would say first, does this give rise to anything bad or set a precedent. Something to think about when we get excited when itβs our teamβs legislation. Iβve seen the inside of politics, their are some good thankfully and one side is clearly evil intimidating and slick. We are not on an even playing field. Not even close, so I will never agree both parties are as bad. Spend time in your state capital in committees. See what the loons purpose and who testifies for and against and which party fights it. People would be amazed dems with any conscious would switch parties.
Agreed, while Leaders of Both parties must communicate with each other to get anything done, That they are friends seems very plausable. GW Bush & Clintons are friends, as an example.
However overall democRats are Crooks & communists, while there are some elected Patriots in the Repub party, too many are crooks and quislings.
The Real Problem is If the Majority of these people in DC are really "Representative"??? Sheesh!!!
DARPA always flies under the radarβ¦ BUT for me, this agency is the braintrustof a lot of what we are currently seeingβ¦ they are the brains behind itβ¦. The FBI are the foot soldiers.
Sad I grew up military. My dad was a colonel retired pentagon biochemical warfare. He was a great patriot. He spoke of the military getting too liberal, rules of engagement etc. He passed in 2017. He said never underestimate the power of the American people. Heβs rolling in his grave. He would have been a whistleblower. He would have been at J6 and all the rallyβs. He said thereβs too many battles to fight, pick one and take it on. I hope he was right. I was always super proud of our DOD, and our military growing up. There were so many passionate more conservative folks involved then. Old school has left the room and new school loons have stepped in. The DOE NIH CDC DARPA DOD so on gone. Resembles nothing American or exceptional.
Donald J. Trump is the only person alive who has the courage to gut these corrupt agencies...and the equally corrupt politicians know it...as do millions of Americans.
Your comment does not address my questions. He knew NIH was corrupt but allowed Fauci to stay. He knew vaccines were not safe but allowed 2 former Pfizer execs to dismantle the committee to investigate vaccine safety. He said both of these facts from his own mouth. He STILL to this day pushes the deadly vaccine. If he is elected (face reality they will NEVER let him back in the White House) he will have another 4 years like the first 4 years. Impeachment and investigations on fake stories. I have questions. Did he know they were deceiving and lying to him? If not why not? Did Dr. Alexander warn him? This entire thing stinks at the roots.
And take heart. He is the point man for a plan birthed after the CIA killed Kennedy and the gullable American people believed the Warren Commission. The plan has been in development since then, has a lot of Christian influence and military (loyal to the constitution) officers with Intelligence background working behind the scenes. Grand juries, indictments, military trials, convictions, imprisonments and executions and martial law are coming. The Storm is coming and nothing can stop it. Take heart, be patient, and trust God.
Did the American people believe the Warren Commission? I donβt think they did. None of the men and women I know of that age ever believed it, they were left just with more questions.
Thanks. Boy if I had a genie in a bottle and was granted one wish I would wish to be President for 24 hours with unfettered authority to do whatever I wanted. We would be looking at a totally different government when I got done.
Most of those 3 letter agencies are really unconstitutional to begin with. That should be the bar to keep them in existence or eliminate them without recourse.
Jeff. I have stayed quiet for long enough and need to fan gush for just a minute. I really look forward to your write-ups, and I even read while having my (2nd cup) morning coffee. Itβs only preceded by coffee (1st cup) with God and hubby. You have a knack for covering most of what is important to me, so I can decide whether to disconnect from news for the day, or dig a little deeper. But the best part is that you write in a way that fits my perspective on life in general, and that is βif you donβt laugh, youβll cryβ. So thank you. Thank you for all the showing up you do; whether itβs listening to political drivel, or watching headlines of various sketchy sources, or scrolling social media, and much more im quite sure. Thank you. Much love and many prayers to and for you and yours.
SadieJay, Shari, Rosalind, and Lynn - itβs good to know Iβm virtually with fellow appreciators of coffee with serious news/humorous spin. It has lifted my day and prepped me for going out the physical world of crazy. I can better smile to myself and remember Iβm not alone. Cheers βοΈ β¨βοΈ
I think of this & a few other substacks as a safe haven. I feel an obligation to know whatβs going on & the comment section is a good , kind, intelligent & supportive community, full of helpful responses, unlike most social media. And itβs ok here to show faith in God- lacking elsewhere.
Definitely agree on all points, especially re: mentioning faith in God. I donβt have to worry about personal attacks or inciting comments. In the comments I often find rabbit trials and interesting nuggets to tuck away for future potential use. And bonus: I can even let my 15 yo daughter read the stack without worry! Weβve both learned so much. :)
Iβm extremely encouraged by a growing number of sites and especially substacks where traditional, Christian perspectives are being boldly shared. The Epoch Times comments, e.g., are pretty solid, and Dr. Robert Malone has no problem acknowledging the spiritual nature of this battle, although he is wonderfully diplomatic and inclusive.
Several years ago, I told my kids that I sense a new Great Awakening emerging in the US. Lately, Iβm seeing it. βIf my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their landβ 2 Chronicles 7:14. Thatβs a promise. Letβs claim it and live it.
Same here! This is my favorite substack and the only one I read daily. Jeff is the best at summarizing and drawing attention to key points one might miss on a casual glance; words matter and nothing gets by him. The comments section is an added bonus and I love the community here:) Prayers for all for discernment and wisdom as we navigate conversations with each other and our circles of family, friends, work, etc.
Yes this stack is also the one I read the most, primarily because Jeff has such a way with words. Our combined prayers for discernment and wisdom are absolutely a must and more and more needed. I know I had gotten a little too comfy spiritually before 2020, so Iβm really enjoying the reinvigoration of my own relationship with God. Trials refine us and purify hearts. Iβm grateful for it.
Me too! Comfortable Christianity is NOT a good place to be. I love the people on here and it is a treasure. I learn so much from following a rabbit trail or not through the comments. Blessed indeed.β₯
Anyone want to guess which types of Catholic perishes were the least likely to push vaccines and the most likely to write religious exemption letters for their members? Yep, the ones currently being investigated.
Also, I know a lot of the participants in the scary, patriarchal "assault rosary" Men's marches, and they're mostly led by young men who are Vietnamese, Hispanic, and Korean. Such white supremacy!

βThe FBIβs report described conservative catholics who prefer the latin mass as being prone to commit racial and ethnic violence, because they follow Jesus. The report suggested having agents infiltrate several conservative catholic activist groups.β
Yes, this hit the news big time on all conservative Catholic sites, yesterday. Because Traditional Catholics love and serve Christ, rejecting the infiltration in the hierarchy of modernism heresy, and growing in numbers, we are a threat to the government and the Vatican. It was past time to be brushed with the false accusations of extremism and racism so beloved by liberals.
Note the phrase "because they follow Jesus". They don't even bother hiding it anymore. This is an ideological war and America's churches better wake up and realize that they will be one of the first ones targeted when the gloves come off the Nazi fist. Pastors: Man up or get out.
I would say it is already here. The mandates, one instance, forced many to choose between conscience and worldly wants. Many chose unwisely. Some, like me were discriminated against but we held strong.
Agreed but things are going to get much, much worse. Mass roundups haven't started, yet. I bet some people thought WW2 was the end times with what the Nazis did.
Why would any decent person (which I believe you are) EVER give a penny to Peter's Pence?
C'mon fellow Catholics! Stop giving money to these homosexual poofters who will use it fund cocaine fueled parties with their homo rent boys. (That's not just hypebole, this actually happened at the Vatican.)
Even Benedict XVI wrote about this in his post mortis publication. Paul VI said the smoke of satan has entered the sanctuary- 50+ years ago. God will take care ofHis church but there will have to be a purge.
There is none so blind as those who will not see. You made a factual statement; βThe Vatican is infiltrated with powerful homosexuals holding cocaine-fueled homosex orgies...β. M Varr has an obvious problem with the truth.
Enjoy that weekend and forget for a few days all the articles you want to write. There will be time for that, but your wife only turns 50 once ! Happy Birthday girl !
This mess with the FBI is highly disturbing. Our family are traditional Catholics, we homeschooled our kids, they learned Latin and Ancient Greek, we are conservative. Theyβre targeting people like US!
We are right there with you: Latin mass attendees/believers, home schooled children and a daughter who now teaches Latin and Greek to the next generation. My husband and I are third generation Californians who have never (one time I can safely use this absolute) voted for a liberal/democratic politician (nor have any of our four children). What has happened to our state and country is very troubling and yet "our leaders" believe the only people who can help save it are the problem? We did not get here because Latin Rite Catholics prayed too much, we got here because most did not pray enough. So many have turned their back on God and the devil is enjoying his time. Until we turn back to God, this living hell will continue, but we will never be lost. Stay close to Our Lord and others who trust in His ways. The battle for our souls has been fought and won, we must never lose hope!!
Amen, Kate! And Iβm so grateful your kids are carrying on the faith. Our youngest is 19 and weβve still got one at University of St Thomas. The others are on their way and all have kept the faith...no marriages yet, but one is engaged and will be married next year! That particular one STILL loves his Greek and Latin. He even won several national awards for Latin against public school seniors when he was a homeschool freshman and sophomore.
I agree with you that all must turn back to God. He is calling for us. I see it everyday!
My youngest (used to call her "my latest and greatest" but my wife eschews that appellation) is graduating from an evangelical university this Spring with a degree in Math. Last year she won the university's annual "English" award even tho she's a Math major.
And best of all, she's a Latin scholar and continues to attend the TLM, as she was raised.
Deo gratias, indeed, Fred! Love that she's a Latin scholar as well as a math whiz. So what did she win the English award for? Was there a competition that she entered with a particular writing project? Sounds fascinating! The TLM is amazing (and now terrorist, I guess hahahahaha), we love it!
No competition - the University simply chooses those whose work in English (my daughter though not an English major took many English literature courses along with her degree field) went above and beyond.
It was a complete surprise to all - including her! She's a real Renaissance woman, a star college athlete who now coaches competitive volleyball and who is going on to Architecture school next year.
You SHOULD be proud! I pray she becomes an architect who designs with beauty in mind, rather than just utility as most do today. We need beautiful buildings.
Well, I *can* say that she has been deeply influenced by the architect Thomas Gordon Smith and his work on Our Lady of the Annunciation of Clear Creek Abbey in Eastern Oklahoma.
That, and the fact that her former attorney father advocates making the erection of a metal building at least a misdemeanor, (2nd offense felony with jail time.) LOL
I just looked it up, Fred. Beautiful! Hillsdale built a chapel a few years ago designed by Duncan Stroik. I think your daughter might like his style too.
And I am so happy for you and the larger church!! It is always so wonderful to know of how many young adults are continuing in their faith even with the love of Latin and Greek!! Truly a blessing for which we thank you!! Congratulations to your son for his awards, that is fabulous!
Parenthood is definitely a humbling experience and I cannot thank God enough every time I speak to our grown children. In these crazy times, I attribute their continued faith to Our Dear Blessed Mother as we used to pray the rosary daily as a family (which as small kids they were not super happy about) and which I still pray today. My husband and I are the humbled parents of four college graduates (one with a Masters in Sacred Theology, another to finish his masters in Theology in May- but refusing to get his PhD because he does not like Greek, unlike his sister (and your son) who loves it!!) and all still practicing their faith and even helping one another stay close to God (they talk and ask questions of each other when strange things come from the Vatican or Bishoprics) and truly not because of us, but because Our Lord and his Mother are far more faithful than we can ever imagine. What the future holds, no one knows, but I continue to remind them the true battle has been won, our souls saved, and the pressure the outside world continues to hurl at us will make us stronger if we so choose, as Our Lord has given us the choice. I pray they as well as yours and so many others choose their faith over any world goods.
I tell you what, Kate, we are blessed by God. Parenting IS difficult even in the most ideal of situations. This world has made even the βidealβ situation one that is rife with struggle regarding the holy charge of parenting.
When I see our children, moving forward under Christβs mantle (making mistakes, yes), it IS humbling because I know that for them to prevail, as they have, is a great feet.
Congratulations to you AND your children for this great victory!
Amen!! And you and your family are in my prayers for continued strength and perseverance as we trust Our Lord and his dear mother to grant us the graces we need to find their peace in this world as we journey together to our final home!!
Oh and itβs funny that you ended your reply with Christus Vincit, etc. That is my favorite hymn! Also, Iβm reading a book right now with the same name about Bishop Athanasius Schneider. Itβs a wonderful read. I highly recommend it.
Yes, but I look to him, Archbishop Vigano, Bishop Strickland, Cardinal Burke, Fathers Altman, Altier, Goring, Heilman, and the many conservative cancelled clergy as my mentors.
It is a beautiful hymn and a beautiful saying and reminder And another one of my favorite sayings comes from the Polish general Jan Sobieski who saved Vienna from the Muslims - Veni, Vidi, Deus Vincit!!
I too read that book and agree it is worth reading as he has been a beautiful light in this darkness.
Truly it was. We are fortunate to have so many wonderful resources from faithful Catholics: from the early church fathers to the sadly small number of Cardinals today. I need their testimony for my daily hope.
You are right! And I know how evil the Internet can be, but my faith has been deepened SO very much by many of the people I engage with here and elsewhere.
You know what they say, Samantha. The Devil hates Latin! In nomine Patrii, et Filii, et Spiritu Sancti! (and I'm sure my Latin-speaking son would have something to say about my translation :))
Yes! I have a book called, The Devil Knows Latin, which speaks to why Latin is the official language of the universal Church. It also talks about him hating Latin as well. Great book.
I donβt know Latin. Our son was in a classical school and would have been learning it (therefore so would we), but that school is a very bad fit for a creative kid who doesnβt fit the traditional school mold, so no more Latin {yet} for us. But I must admit feeling a bit of jealousy about you allβs use of it! Maybe in another couple of years we can work it into our school curriculum. Weβve spent the last two primarily recovering the joy of learning and remediating what the school didnβt teach well for him.
My youngest son just "got" Latin. He has actually thought about studying linguistics in college and has often talked about making up his own language, a la JRR Tolkien :) He's kind of a Latin geek, to be honest.
Recovering the joy of learning is super important so I think having your focus there is good, Copernicus. Public school - where my son started - just beats the joy out of kids. In 4th grade, the year of ELA testing, they told me my son wasn't doing well on the practice exams. Bear in mind that my son had already read The Hobbit, the LOTR trilogy, all of the Narnia books and had stacks of papers under his bed with his own made up stories. They explained that their goal was to make the kids "technical readers" because their future would involve reading manuals - like putting together a gas grill. I went home from that conference, called my husband, and found a small, classical Catholic school in which to enroll my son. Best thing we ever did.
NAB, God BLESS you for doing that for your son. I know it sounds strange, but I venture to say you and your husband SAVED your son in a real way. Gives me tears of joy.
My only regret is that my four older kids all went through public school (but the situation was much different then). If I had to do it all again? Probably would homeschool them all. The small, classical school is amazing, but not without its issues too.
Public schools have changed dramatically just in the past 15 or so years. It's crazy. Well, even homeschooling isn't without its challenges. Granted, it's definitely worth it, but some days...<wink>
Oh good grief! What a load of manure! Glad you have found a better option for your kiddo!
Because perish the idea that we ought to expose our kids to great literature so they can read THAT! Anyone who can read Tolkien can read a manual for setting up a gas grill. As long as the English translation isnβt too messed up. π.
Oh, weβve been homeschooling for the last few years! This our ability to focus the first two years simply on recovering the joy of learning!!
It is hard and amazing and infinitely better than traditional school, yes, even on the days when there is a lot of yelling. Haha.
There was zero possibility of doing Latin our first year because our kiddo had an allergic reaction to nearly anything that was something the old school had done. Now that we are a couple of years out of that, weβve been able to resume some of the things, like nature notebooks, that were very sweet parts of that school experience. So perhaps in another year or two, Latin will once again be on our curriculum list. We shall see.
Happy to hear curriculum suggestions and what you like/don't like about each one. Especially if one or more are more, or less, suited for kids with learning differences or kids who need to see the big picture before being taught all the minutiae. I will make notes for the future. Thanks!
My favorite Latin curriculum for littles up to high school is Latina Christiana, then Henle in high school. My absolute favorite for ancient Greek is "Andrew Teach Me Some Greek!" It's such a great curriculum that I learned it while teaching it. Also, by just listening to me teach the others, one of my boys, when he was barely 4, started reciting the Greek lessons I was teaching the others on his own!
I forgetβcan a congressional committee refer anything to the DOJ? Where real punishment could happen? Not that the current one is of any use to truth. I often just cannot watch any of this theater hijinx. Plus who covers it? βThe revolution will not be televisedβ.
You make a good point. If there is no mechanism for punishment because the agencies charged with this are themselves deeply corrupted then what is the point? There will be media silence so it wonβt even serve to wake up the sleepers . It really does seem like theater. Even so, I wish I were wrong and that there was real hope of reform but the Deep State seems almost permanently entrenched now. So depressing!
And there will be no mechanism as long as the communists are in power. The FBI has been weaponized as the President's personal SS gestapo. Just as with the US military, the real FBI agents are being culled from the service leaving only SS Nazi thugs.
"Deep State" is just "Deep Statists", PEOPLE that get up and put their pants/panties on every AM. Just People, Not gods. No need to put them on a pedistal of invincibility.
They are "organized" with lower level Apparachik Polezi to carry out their orders. Nothing More, Nothing Less.
Yes General, theyβre just normal people like you or me. It was normal people who just βwent alongβ who enabled the 3rd Reich. The banality of evil as Hannah Arendt put it. All we can do is stand for truth and be willing to take the consequences. This is what we are called to do so that we are not complicit. But itβs not easy.
I'm fairly certain nothing will happen to these people. At least, not anytime soon with the current Biden regime at the DOJ. But....I'm glad these hearings are taking place and exposing the evilness. Whether people pay attention and realize how corrupt these agencies are, is up to each person but at least the information is publicly available for the taking. Conservatives have been frequently criticized for letting things slide, cheek turning, and not fighting back. What's happening now in the House are Republicans who promised to fight back...and that's exactly what they're doing. With these hearings, we now have a record...a record that may come back to haunt these evil doers in the future should Republicans gain majority in the senate & WH which will also mean new leadership within the DOJ. It's a long shot for sure but I'm remaining hopeful because I know good will always prevail evil. Now....whether I live long enough to see it is a different story! Lol!
OK, let me add to my gloomy, "realistic" comments. The good news is that their narrative is broken and visible for all to see. The tide is turning, the dam is breaking. The Great Divide is happening. They have lost control, especially with the opening of free exchange again on Twitter, thanks to an unnamed billionaire. People are looking. We have to keep exposing and this is what the House is doing.
Just in time for a large false flag. Chinese War balloons or "unidentified" crafts being shor down maybe? I see "aliens" in our future, like Reagan said before the UN in 1987. WORLD PEACE βοΈ
What's important here is the American people are see the corruption and manipulation for themselves and when we reach critical mass "in the know" they will not rebel or riot in the streets when "The Plan" is initiated with martial law and arrests of some important, seemingly good poeple, and military tribunals with executions.
Yes, I feel like weβve been here so many times before. And yet I canβt help but hope it will be different this time. But I sure wouldnβt bet on it.
Nothing happens? Peter Strzok was fired....don't fall into "Eeyore" despair and despondency.
Aug. 13, 2018 WASHINGTON β Peter Strzok, the F.B.I. senior counterintelligence agent who disparaged President Trump in inflammatory text messages and helped oversee the Hillary Clinton email and Russia investigations, has been fired for violating bureau policies, Mr. Strzokβs lawyer said Monday.
C&C Army, I wanted to give you a little update on Michelle. Thanks to the generosity of many of you, Michelle reached her goal between Give Send Go and private donations and is making her payment today to get her house out of foreclosure proceedings.
Thank you so much for being willing to help this courageous woman; she is extremely grateful for the abundance shared with her.
This is Michelle Rogers who worked for a company that imposed a COVID-19 vaccine mandate. She filed for exemption based on religious belief and was denied. Michelle was fired in Nov 2021 for standing on her religious beliefs.

David Had To Pick Up that River Rock. "Who" will answer The Lord's War Cry??? just asking for a friend that has bruised turned cheeks sitting in the Feral DC Gulag. My apologies, there should be some Men left in the country, they seem to be as scarce as hen's teeth. Me included,

And David was a kid!! Geez! His father sent him with food for his brothers who were fighting against the Phillistines. When David got within ear shot of their encampment he heard Goliath proclaiming victory over them, "they would forever be slaves....." Then David arrived and observed the Israelite army...cringing at every word and paralized with fear! What did that little shepherd boy David do? He reminded them who they were! "You're God's Army!! God is on our side, He will win this battle!" They lead him to King Saul's tent when he said he would fight Goliath. Saul told David to wear his armor...too big, too heavy, impossible! Coward King Saul. David refused the armor and went out to handle the giant who was sure he would singlehandedly kill the Israelite army. David retrieved 5 stones from the brook and loaded his sling...ONE STONE...ONE! David took aim and that ONE STONE struck Goliath and did the job an entire army could not! Remember, Goliath had continued to remind the frightened and trembling Israelite army, that they would be defeated and become their slaves. But God! When the stone struck Goliath between the eyes he FELL FORWARD...not backwards....
In death Goliath bowed down to the Israelite army! David's chastisement of the army of Israel surely stung! God was victorious because David, a young boy, trusted God's promises and he defeated the giant Goliath, because he believed he could. God fights our battles, we act on God's direction.
I continue to pray for those in the DC gulag. I pray that God will strengthen them, watch over them and fill them with strength to withstand every arrow! I pray for those who persecute them. I pray for the justice system. I pray that through God's infinite power and mercy, they will be vindicated! I trust God. I know He will right the wrongs. I pray for righteous lawyers and judges to spring up among them as God can indeed change hearts! I pray that those suffering will be encouraged, will not lose hope, and that their resolve will be strengthened beyond any measure one can imagine! Let the light shine into their prison cells and all that hides in the dark be brought out! That truth will prevail!
There is power in prayer. Too many have abandoned prayer⦠and God.
Beautiful! Thank you! Amen!
So beautifully and perfectly said! Amen! ππ»ππ»ππ»
Yes! He is always with us! No matter what. β€οΈ
That doesnt mean that we won't suffer...God was with the hundreds of thousands of Christians persecuted in the first centuries after Christ, was with the even larger number of Christians persecuted in the Soviet Union, etc. Our country may never be the same, but we can pray and perhaps in prayer and repentance, stave off the inevitable. πππ
Indeed and Amen. Many are and have been suffering not only from losing misguided friends and family members, being censored, and having careers destroyed. Many are suffering from covid and vax-related injuries and deaths. And yet we are tremendously blessed weβre at least not governed by Islamic fundamentalists who literally kill Christians for being Christians. Before that day comes to America, we should thank and praise God for sparing us the worst persecution, and while we still live, call on His power to help us stand, resist, and change course. Not as if our lives depend on it but because our lives depend on it.

Our ways are not God's ways, and we rarely see things go according to our preferred script. What we need to focus on now is the fact -- and it is an obvious fact -- that evil is being unmasked everywhere around us and that the best medicine for an infection, which this is, is to be opened to the sunlight and air. Look at poor Pete, in the picture above, fixing to ruin the lives of two babies, and look at the vindictive bureaucratic retaliation against Musk while the body parts of murdered babies, pulled apart without anesthesia, are marketed and sold at taxpayer expense.
The depth and breadth of evil all around us is staggering, and prosecution, even highly visible prosecution, of this or that perpetrator is not going to have any impact whatsoever on the demonic machinery behind this. But simply ferreting out the corruption and putting it on display in this way, so that more and more people become aware of its sheer, repulsive magnitude, that will first create a hesitancy on the perpetrators to continue behaving like monsters with impunity. Then, at first slowly but more and more quickly over time, we will see the useful idiots realize what they have been a part of, and they will quietly withdraw their support for evil. Finally, some of the fellow travelers will switch sides, if only to join up with the strong horse, and that will leave only the true party members, the sociopaths like the Obamas and the Garlands and the Pelosis, all of whom will go back to their holes to lick their wounds.
That's is what we have been praying for and what we must keep praying for. That, by all indications of the moment, is how this is going to go down.
Nothing/no one can stop God's will.
Well put.
Couldnβt be more clear.
Light and truth to darkness and lies, you have provided a chance for me to return to reasoned thot and analysis.
Jeff Childers, please please comment on this. Might there even BE any consequences for these people as they are grilled by Subcommittees, etc? Is there even a way that could happen?
Not with a weaponized FBI and DOJ. They'd be the ones to take up any charges, I think.
Maybe we just start with making them pay for their own health insurance and a dental plan.
Not to worry, Gorgo. The BideNATO nuclear war will start soon, and the FBI's transgressions will cease troubling us all.
What war?
Ok then, what's to be done? And who's it that does this supposed what? π
Can you really give an answer to that one, out loud? I'm thinking of Horshack in the back of the room flailing his arms..... Ooo, Oooo, Mr. Carter!

On serious note, there was a monumental mess left upon conclusion of Nuremberg 1.0, the mess never properly cleaned up (nor intended tbh). A mere faΓ§ade of Justice π We live very much in its aftermath π€·
No difference then and now. The laws are just being completely overlooked like they donβt exist. This EU was and is still illegal. If the so called jabs and Plaxovid treat the disease then they canβt have an EU. This is Why they blocked therapeutics such as ivermectin, hydroxychloriquine and the convalescent plasma. They manipulated every bit of data so sinister.
Amen! What happened to accountability?? βΉοΈ
I TRULY HOPE. but Good luck. So doubtful
Luck has zero power. It will be by Divine design that we see good come of any and all of this. May we be strengthened in hope to endure the course!
Interesting how lefty organic-food hippies now love GMO shots and demand endless war against Russia. They now get bi-monthly mRNA injections as they tweet praise for the blood spilled in Ukraine.
Fortunately:
Matt Gaetz just introduced a resolution calling for a Russian-Ukrainian peace deal and an immediate freeze to all Ukraine war spending.
Yes the complete βre-facingβ of the left generally can be seen as a mass behavioral operation, and a cultural warfare adjunct. To transform the once peacenik crowd into Russophobes howling for blood is a achievement.

Beyond political power objectives, the disparate factors which influence many to accept CAGW are well studied social phenomena such as; personal wealth, and Institutional wealth. Researchers in many fields know that funding is available for their department if they can attach theoretical CAGW harm to a paper. (There is hundreds of billions of dollars a year available for research and industry) As often quoted Upton Sinclair said β'It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.β Other known and studied bias factors are peer pressure, social and professional shadow-banning, confirmation bias, noble cause corruption, misuse of the precautionary principle, and effective propaganda of repeated and false warnings of doom by many CAGW proponents.
βThe terrible truths of these experiments in human compliance and propensity to be beastly stand testament to the nature of the problem.β
milgram showed us how people will harm people if pressured by authority
asch showed us that people will ignore their own senses and perceptions when pressured by peer group
stanford showed us how easily humans can be egged into abuse of powerβ
As the world grows ever smaller via human technology, human systems and corporations grow ever more global. It is logical therefore that systems of human corruption can and would also became more pervasive and global in scale. The merge of One world Government and international business is not to be trusted. These people endlessly proclaim how they are doing this for the good of the world.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baronβs cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good, will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven, yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very βkindnessβ stings with intolerable insult. To be βcuredβ against oneβs will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease, is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.β

Not so much left and wandering about aimlessly with an N-95 mask on....
This is so bizarre, I think the same way. What happened? Itβs obvious people didnβt just change their mind overnight but they are being led and manipulated. A psyop of the first order
0bama (and whoever was pulling his strings) happened, coopting the republican misdeeds for use to help the Marxists. That takes money, so they got in bed with multinational corporations and the press. He coopted social media with State Dept GEC for the Arab Spring and the govt got comfortable and took over those platforms using CISA and DHS. He took over our elections with machines, throwing our cash at states to do it, while condescendingly declaring it "impossible" to rig a national election, knowing it was already in the works. I could go on.
BHO was a senate dead space. His political career was manufactured and he was a puppet placed in the WH. He knows he is a fraud, and he knows we know, but he came out pretty well despite being exposed. Sunshine and truth will be his, and Mike's, undoing.
All by design
Thatβs why the leftist will never stop with their rules for radicals, community organizations like ACORN which Iβm sure is operating under different names. Itβs world wide. The leftist have been taking a sip of our soda little by little while we went on with our lives. This is deeply embedded with big money like never before. I hope universal law plays out.
And them got slapped upside the head with 9 inches of Cloward-Piven!!
Obama is running the show from his "basement".
He and Valerie Jarrett. 2 blocks from the WH.
Don't forget Susan Rice.

The bad news is that US intel is directing the whole thing. The worse news is that it is directed at *us* the citizens of the once free United States. The worst news is that they're EXTREMELY proficient.
They didnβt change. They were only for those things based on trendiness among people in their groups and now that jabs and war are trendy in those groups, theyβre for jabs and war. Itβs not based on any actual principles, only based on what is acceptable and the in thing with the group they belong to.
It's always been able who has the power, for good, mine or yours. If you have the power and i get little gain then I'll protest until ppl see that they want what i want. Then when I get what I want I'll have power over you who wanted me in power and now you protest but we are all old and those who come behind don't know how bad canned food is vs home made and home is too boring and too hard and no kudoos enough to gain power so gimme free canned just enough to make me hate your enemies. π€ͺ
So true my patient got a booster in her first trimester and no worries but wonβt use all natural products for oral hygiene! I have those who wonβt take any meds hate big pharma but say I got all my shots! Mental condition.
I need to use natural products due to cirs , biotoxin mold illness and many autoimmune issues acquired after a booster shot for work years ago. My boosted mom thinks Iβm just being trendy, sigh. Truly cognitive dissonance. I pray for the babies.
Rosalind. Wow, we have another thing in common. Iβm also healing form mold illness and cirs. Iβm so surprised to see anyone mention those particular dx! Mine isnβt from a vax.

I read that it was us who told Zelensky not to engage in peace talks, and some news recently points to us blowing up that pipeline.
Jesus said: Blessed are the peacemakers. Biden is not one, and with his cronies, take us away from God's blessing us as a country.
We did blow it up. We threatened it, we did it, and now we brag about it. To me, neocon ideology isnβt much different than commie ideology. Both are built on manβs hubris.
I donβt think we are bragging about it and they arenβt admitting it. Interesting how Germany isnβt livid maybe thatβs why they wonβt pony up tanks etc. We so meddle. All SA countries flipped commie. Its the leftist sneaky way to get the pendulum swinging in their favor after indoctrination and covid failures were used to sway voters. Slick SOBs.
Ukraine refused to submit to rape and it's refusing a peace deal?
Would you agree to a peace deal where instead of getting 2 boosters a year you only had to get one every other year?
You'd refuse, rightfully so. Ukraine was right to refuse too.
Right, like they had a choice.
Ukraine did have a choice.
Zelenskyy told Biden no and on the same day told Putin to eat poop.
So you are willing to negotiate with Brandon on gun rights and mandatory covid vaccines?
Okay, that totally will go over well.
Is that why the comedian trotted off the the UK to ask for more weapons/money from the new King? What a suck-up.
America did the same thing and ben Franklin spent 2 yeArs in france wining and dining with the French begging for aid.
Winston Churchill spoke before Congress and begged for aid also. He even wore a flat green military uniform, just like Zelensky.
Ukraine needs better weapons to take back territory lost to Russia.
Europe has sent hundreds of tanks. We arenβt doing so much there.
Wait, WHAT?!? I thought Ukraine was right on the verge of "winning"? ππ How could the Ukrainians have lost ANY territory to the Russians, since they are (paraphasing your words)
"airbursting artillery tearing through Russian infantryman. Destroyed dozens of brand new Russian tanks. Hundreds of Russian bodies. And not even a *single victory*, Russians are furious on Telegram!"
But now "Ukraine needs better weapons to take back *territory lost to the Russians".
Oops! Something's not right with these stories, Benji.
I think most Americans are all about protecting AMERICAN BORDERS! Not the BidenCrimeFamily's money laundering playground.
Feel free to tell me this is winning for Russia

How about an independent news source rather than a Telegram channel?
War crimes, anyone?

If you hit a minefield, go around that vehicle and keep going.
RAAM is working overtime (artillery dropped anti tank mines).
Western military tech is defeating Russia.
"How about an independent news source rather than a telegram channel?"
You literally posted a "news site" run by the Russian government.
Independent? Laughable.
Can you answer why the pro-Russian groups are furious and want the leader of the Eastern Military district sacked? They keep sending thousands of men and vehicles into mine fields only to retreat and be cut down by artillery. They show blatant disrespect towards the Eastern Military District commander, some dude named Muratov, for sending human waves in 2023. It's hilarious.
5 Russian brigades attacked Vuhledar and were massacred.
According to the Russian government they defeated Ukraine back in February of 2022 2 days into the "special military operation" and everything is going according to plan. Men are breaking their legs to avoid going into Vuhledar because it has been turned into the Fort Duaomont of southern Ukraine.
Why is active combat still going on?
If you want to talk about war crimes let's ask why Russia abducted tens of thousands of children from Occupied parts of Ukraine and intentionally targeted civilian structures.
Fun fact: Ukraine is winning.
When the USA invaded Iraq in 2003 there were a few set goals in place. Depose Saddam. Replace the government with a democratic one. Defeat the military. Gain control of the entire country.
Russia's goals in the beginning were similar, except they intended to annex all of the coast including Odessa, turn Ukraine into a rump nation with no army, no navy, and no airforce, much like Belarus, and a puppet government. Deport the population, crush their identity, and replace them with Russians. Russification at its finest, in 2022.
If the USA had invaded Iraq, made it to baghdad, been pushed back to almost the starting point, Saddam was more popular and going on live TV roasting Bush, the Iraqi army was more powerful than before, the Iraqi army was pushing the USA back in several areas and had defeated the USA in several large battles, and the USA was over 11 months behind on it's goals and having to conduct a national draft to fill manpower qoutas would we really be winning?
The USA threw numerous human wave attacks of 18-22 year olds from Georgia and they were crushed with enormous loss of life.
"Oh but the USA has 20% of iraq!" (it's actually about 16 percent, including what was already held before)
That's immaterial because we intended to occupy the entire country in a few days and have the entire country to partition as we pleased.
"The USA is grinding the Iraqis down!"
Umm, we are having to conduct a national draft and lost 1730 Abrams tanks, a carrier flagship, 137 THOUSAND men, got routed in 3 major battles, and lost hundreds of planes and helicopters.
We are now resorting to putting m48 and m60a1 tanks back into service.
Iraq would be winning and rightfully so.
But here we are.
354 days later into Russia's 3 day war and Russia is putting Pantsir ADA units on the top of the Moscow Russian military headquarters.
Because they're winning.
Russia is losing this war and showing how strong the west and nato is.
Tic Toc, there are "other" Players in the World besides just Us. CYA, no time to dilly dalley.
Russia is sending a very clear warning to the neoclowns. Not because they expect the evil morons to heed them, but to give the people of the West one last chance to stop following the wicked satanists down the pathway to Hell.
https://voxday.net/2023/02/09/russias-new-red-lines/
That's the only solution, isn't it? That the civilian realize that kinetic WWIII and the absolute destruction of civilization is being forced by our so called "leaders" and, through our continued apathy and inaction, we will be the midwife of the end of modern civilization.
Wake up, act or die.
All over being green and ESG they arenβt stupid.
Russia is literally throwing men into suicide charges against prepared Ukrainian defenses.
They are incompetent and buffoonish.
Aaaaand...you're point is???? Oh yeah, that's how shills talk.
Yep. He trolls all of SS
Russia's new offensive is a failure before it even started.
Could you atleast pick someone competent to shill for, phil?
The drone videos are horrifying. Men being run over by their own tanks and vehicles as they first one finds a mine then the rest come under 155mm arty fire.
Sigh...Benny, Benny, Benny. Smh
Do I have to share the videos airburst artillery tearing through Russian infantryman?
Dozens of destroyed brand new tanks?
Hundreds of bodies?
And not even a single victory, Russian telegram channels are furious
Yeah, ok. I see a completely different picture on Telegram, as does everyone else. Are you sure you're not following a fake "Russian" channel?
RU TG
Some Russians are not sugarcoating this.
The Ugledar catastrophe as a new round of the military history of Russia.
It's amazing how persistently we burn the T-90 in anticipation of the Abrams and Leopards, in the hope ....
Just in hope.
It is obvious that there was a calculation for the development of events near Ugledar to support the offensive near Bakhmut-Artemovsk, but it did not happen.
That is why, and also according to the results of the offensive near Kremena, a general offensive is not launched.
Will start or not in the coming days, the question remains open.
Up to 500 thousand people were pulled together along the entire front.
But with such planning... Hope will commit suicideβ
https://t.me/mototroopers_205/900
No. The grey zone is a channel run by Wagner and theyβre absolutely furious over the 155th being thrown into suicidal charges over vuhledar.
Ask yourself why Russia, despite launching human wave attacks into bakhmut, still canβt take the city
Ask yourself why they are stealing ammuniton and tanks and APCs from Belarus to outfit new BTGs because the ones sent originally were destroyed.
Ask yourself why Russian telegram channels are so angry over vuhledar and insulting the Russian MOD and also complaining over severe artillery shortages and gun rounds for BmpS.
Same with the hard rockers. Rage Against the Machine is now Rage FOR the Machine.
I've had to adjust my music library and deleted A LOT of these losers.
Most of those people are just big fakes. It was a veneer, a persona, not actual principles or values.
I have a gay BIL. He actually left the country to avoid a DWI and hot check arrest back in the late 70s. (My MIL turned him in upon arrival back in the states. π) He did the gay bar scene in the 80s-90s (during Fauci's AZT Reign of Terror), long hair, smoked dope ->>SCREW THE MAN, Man! Now, drives a Prius, is "up to date" (5?) on all cv jabs, still wears a mask, has a Ukraine flag on his FB profile, feels sorry for "those poor asylum seeking migrants". His health is truly failing, gained almost 50-70 lbs in 18 mo, has infected, non-healing surgical wounds from 9 mo ago, that just "baffle" the doctors.

Going into some blue state is still very Orwellian.
Yes! This has occurred to me as well...that hard lefties, who fought so hard against GMO food, now think GMO is just fine.
Meanwhile there was always a Christian generally conservative group also against GMO food and into herbs and natural health -- and they still are. I guess they had a steadier basis for their values. I'm one of them.
Yes, that absolutely amazes me.
Would you accept a peace deal over covid shots? Why not?
Russia violated and ignored the first 2 peace deals.
Rewarding a tyrant works out so well.
You have it backwards but I love that you show up every time this subject is breached
So you would accept a deal to get covid shots? Noted.
See my previous answer. Or see Chevrus' words to the unwise.
So a communist tyrant can be trusted now?
the FBI MUST be gutted. The CIA MUST be gutted. They no longer serve the people. They are political weapons against the people. There should be no sacred cows. The FBI and CIA with all of their crimes against humanity seem to always just get a smack on the hand but what is really needed is for Congress to end the FBI and one day when we hopefully get a decent real American loving President he/she will shut down the CIA as well as many of the unconstitutional federal agencies like to DoE, DoEd, EPA, HHS and many more need to be shut down completely.
I totally agree but it's never going to happen. I'm not being negative. I'm just being realistic. It's just like the elections. Does anyone think the 2024 election will not be just as rigged, if not more, as the elections of 2018, 2020 and 2022? To think otherwise is to divorce one's self from reality. It will take a MAJOR push back from the states, lead by the Governors, to make that kind of change and we're not there yet. Clown world will continue as long as the Nazi/Bolsheviks are in power.
I agree. I know it should be done but I also know it never will because both R and D are on the same side of the fence.
I will hold fast to the promises of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who will never leave me or forsake me.
God is on the throne! He knows exactly what is happening. He appoints the world's leaders. He knows what they'll do, how they'll act and how it will end. He uses evil people to accomplish good despite what man thinks. He will prevail! He wins.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers Him out of all of them.

I couldnβt agree with you more. And I too am a realist though often mistaken for a pessimist. ;)
Ha, love that line. - I'm going to use it. Because after awhile, we even begin feeling like pessimists, when it's just that we know too much. Realists, love it.
My husband has ALWAYS called me a pessimist, while he, admittedly, is an extreme optimist. When it became clear what was happening, I realized I'm not a pessimist but a realist and always have been.
There is no uncorrupted agency and few uncorrupted politicians to do the "gutting".
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it"
I would have substituted the word "Obligation" for "Right" in Jeffersons timeless document. There is nobody to correct this situation but US. The responsibility for the future is OURS.
The American people are about as worthless as the government. Most Americans would rather take the easy way and just obey. I am always amazed at how much abuse Americans are willing to take oh and aside from yelling at the TV (which they should throw in the trash) they will do nothing to protect the future for their children.
This is the biggest problem. The American PEOPLE. I don't recognize them. Especially since, where I live, they're still mostly masked and repeat like robots, "This is a private business we require masks masks are required here" without considering FOR A MOMENT that our country is now lying in the dust and they are the agents of that destruction. When did the American people become Communists?
Any business that requires a mask does not get my business. Any business that refuses to take cash does not get my business. In the future this will be more and more of a problem but I will eat grass from my back yard before I give in to these genocidal sociopaths. I do not think the American people have become communists......it is worse than that. They have become obedient sheep who would rather be slaves than fight back or disobey. The Christians believe God will not allow our demise to happen but that is not true. God has commanded the demise of many people in the Bible when they turned away from God's word and lived in sin. God expects us to fight the battle on earth to fight against the sinners. He will decide the outcome but it is WE THE PEOPLE that must do the right thing in the eyes of God or we shall feel his wrath.
I agree, but here in Seattle every single medical establishment (even if there is just a hint of a medical connection) proudly refuses service to anyone without a mask. We don't wear them, but that means we cannot go to a doctor, so we better not get sick (or need physical therapy, or dermatologist). My kids were kicked out by our dentist of many years because I refused to mask them (for 5 seconds crossing the lobby). I have a friend who is worried her cancer has come back but she refuses to mask so she cannot go to the doctor. People who wear masks have NO IDEA the persecution we still endure with this issue of conscience. The disheartening part is the finality and robotic indifference with which these un-American mantras are repeated by the mindless masses. It's sickening.
Try going to a doctor outside of the communist state of Washington. You might have to travel a bit. I would advise your friend to contact a state legislator but in Seattle you don't have much of chance with them either. There are places your friend could go and get care without wearing a mask. Any doctor that refuses treatment because of refusal to wear a mask needs to be brought up on charges but Americans just don't go there. I know I would be making a phone call before I left the parking lot to a good attorney and file charges with the medical board. They took an oath to DO NOT HARM. You could always put a for sale sign up and move to a more freedom loving state. I did it. Left family and friends behind and moved to TN 13 years ago. I saw the handwriting on the wall well over 20 years ago.
We left our beloved Emerald City (Seattle) in May 2020.
Not looking back.
Left in May 2022.
She's a fighter. She filed Notice of Violation papers to the perp who refused her service that same day. Here in Seattle we're using Common Lawful (commonlawful.com) papers like toilet paper, serving them to mayors, city council members, CEO of Boeing (in his own home out of state), governor...and medical tyrants. No constitutional lawyers in WA state who will take the cases, or judges who will rule justly, but the hope is these notices will come back to bite them when they seek to distance themselves from their criminality.
Good for her and your troops but she needs to care for her health and should look outside your state for help.
Ok, here's my great story about that. Hearing aids: In Oregon the Costco won't let you in the testing booth without mask. So I planned to visit my daughter in Bellevue, WA so called their local Costco just in case. Yes, they didn't require mask so I bought new aids there. Then they needed adjustment so on a trip to Idaho I got that done. Now my local Costco does the grunt work, servicing and cleaning, without having received the benefit of the sale. Yes, medical might mean some traveling now but it's doable. Most other basic medical don't require a mask here in S OR even tho it's still a state (fake) rule. I even went to a doc in liberal Eugene and not only no mask, they had the Oregonians for Medical Freedom brochure in waiting room!
Yep we just have to think outside the box and it may require a bit of inconvenience but that is a small price to pay for freedom. THANKS!!
That is the dumbest argument people keep using, I canβt stand hearing it! So if a private business requires female patrons to wear a burka or everyone to wear a bondage dog collar thingy or high heels or overalls to enter (and those are not even MEDICAL DEVICES like masks are!), people would be ok with that?? And I am not talking specialty shops where they could just say, βwell I just would t shop there.β
No, regular supermarkets and other stores that most people need to go to for food, medicines, etc. There is absolutely no reason that any private business should tell people what specific items of clothing to wear, let alone a medical device!! (And I know, people use restaurants requiring a jacket and tie as examples but those are mostly outdated and donβt really represent any particular burden to wear).
We both must have been responding at the same time. During COVID I NEVER wore a mask. Food stores will bring your bags to the car and you can order on line. But I went into the stores and guess what not one person said anything to me. There is always an alternative. When I went to the doctors or dentist I refused to wear a mask and at times had to wait outside until my turn but that was ok with me. I was not going to put a filty rag on my face that caused more harm than good just because these robots said so. And when we run out of alternatives that is because Americans have become slaves obeying the orders of their masters. Americans are not stupid people. We have invented things over the years that have made us a country that everyone wants to come to so what makes us think these people do not still exist. They are already starting (albeit too slowly) alternatives. My state of TN has legislation this year to create a state bank, a gold depository and the ability for Tennesseans to use gold and silver as currency to pay taxes. This is the kind of stuff and power the states have if they would grow a spine and follow the Constitution. The ONLY legal tender is gold and silver and it is clearly stated in the Constitution. Learn to grow food is probably the most important thing we could do. There are a lot of foods that grow without seeds. Carrots, garlic, onions, strawberries, avocadoes, potatoes just to name a few.
My mask story. My daughters and I were put on the "no fly" list for Alaska Airlines because I refused to mask IN THE AIRPORT (except to check in at Alaska desk and of course I was going to mask on the plane). Airport is different jurisdiction from Alaska. Alaska employee chased us down in the concourse and demanded we mask. When we refused, because he is not an authority in the airport, he canceled our flight without telling us, and they wouldn't tell us where our luggage was. We got in the car and drove THAT DAY to Phoenix. My husband won't mask ever and had cops called on him (and he's called the cops) just to check out groceries. He couldn't go to work either. I could go on...I've been screamed at numerous times, cursed loudly (by men), physically threatened (by men), and have been refused service far too many times to count. We ordered groceries too, but we didn't lock down, so we went on road trips, etc. and had many interactions. We are quiet, law abiding people who hate confrontation. The "land of the free and the home of the brave" is as dead as the Constitution is.
Ugh Iβm sorry you had to go through all that π I was denied entry to several stores and given dirty looks but never physically threatened or screamed at. This is why I think the health departments need to have power taken away and also businesses who want to institute these rules should be prevented from doing it.
I agree that what happened was disheartening, but on the other hand, I think a lot of people also have had their eyes opened since. So I am not quite as pessimistic.
I really donβt understand the buying online as a βprotestβ though, to be honest. You are still rewarding the store with your business and still playing their game by their rules. It doesnβt hurt them at all. Itβs as if black people during the civil rights movement had said, well, if they refuse to serve me inside that restaurant, I will just sit outside. How would that have any effect? Why would they even care? Allowing them to exclude you from in person shopping based on a medical choice is accepting a violation of your rights imo.
We didn't accept it but some days you're just too tired to fight. Some days I'd rather starve than go through that again. But we do have kids who need to eat.
Oh yes I totally get that. It does wear you down and some days itβs certainly tougher than others π I got so tired of fighting with stores, schools, legislators, everyone, sometimesβ¦ But you still did so much more than most people!
These stories from brave patriots make my heart happy.
Good initiatives in TN!
Well I admit I did wear a mask initially because where I was, you would get thrown out for not wearing one and I refuse to shop online for groceries. Thatβs just as bad imo, marginalizing people and making them stay out of stores. It should always be my choice to pick out my own produce or whether I prefer to have someone else do it. When the rules became more relaxed and the mandates went away, stores still supposedly required them but by then I also knew enough and had bad enough experiences with masks (high blood pressure spikes for one) to refuse and by then stores were less gung ho about applying the policy. I still got yelled at but it didnβt go any further. My parents were refused service at the only grocery store in their town when they didnβt mask and didnβt have a delivery option. So itβs not always that easy and thatβs why I think we need to push lawmakers to codify this, so that businesses cannot require it and health departments wonβt have that power either.
I did not say to shop on line for groceries. You go to your supermarket website and sign up. you order stuff from the grocery store and select a pick up date and time. You open the back of your car and they just put the groceries in your car. You don't even get out of your car. When they are done close the door and drive away. I even tried to offer a tip one time and was told they are not allowed to take tips. Many many stores offered pick up service but people needed to get out of their box and find one. EVERY grocery store where I lived offered pick up service. And when I traveled to PA same thing. Even in rural TN they offered pick up at all supermarkets. Lawmakers are bought and paid for. We have to stand up and fight back. Stand outside the supermarkets and stores that require masks and picket their business. Search for alternatives even if that means you have to travel a bit.
Itβs pretty much the same thing π€·ββοΈ You even said you order on the grocery storeβs website. You never go into the store. My point is, I WANT to go on the store because I WANT to see the products and choose them myself. I donβt want someone else to do that for me, whether I get it delivered to my house or pick it up outside the grocery store.
That said, I definitely will have a stronger reaction if this ever happens again. I realize now I shouldnβt have gone along with it at all. I was mistaken in what I initially thought. I wouldnβt have gone along with it at first if I had known more about the masks and hadnβt believed the droplet theory at first. After a few weeks and things going on and on, I came to realize more about what harm masks did. So yeah some of us didnβt have your brilliant insight at the very beginning and were a little late to the party. And no, my parents did not have delivery available in their rural area. Their house is too far from town and on a dirt road. So it may be possible in many places but it isnβt everywhere.
Picking out my own bananas is not as important to me than my freedom. If I could rely on the American people to refuse to shop in these places I would not have to resort to ordering my food and picking it up because the store would either change its policy or go out of business but way too many Americans masked up and were too lazy to even research the dangers of the mask which were much worse than COVID and the people that remained sick were those that masked up and took the injection.
I think with hindsight, what was lacking was an organized resistance. I am sure we would have had more of an effect (and people who would have been too scared to resist alone wouldβve been more apt to do something) if weβd had groups unmasked or picketing/protesting and things like that. There were more people than I thought who didnβt agree with all the draconian measures but thought they were alone so couldnβt do anything (a tactic Hitler understood and used very effectively against people). Hopefully we will be able to stop it happening again by getting together and using our strength in numbers. The shrill supporters of Covid policies do not outnumber us imo. And the ones who are apathetic will just go with the stronger side. We need to be the stronger side from now on.
But youβre still shopping there? Just not in the store (unless Iβve misunderstood something?). So I donβt understand what difference it makes to refuse to shop inside the store but still buy your groceries from there. Ok you donβt wear a mask but the store isnβt losing your business so how is that changing anything? They donβt care, theyβre still getting your money. It just perpetuates the problem rather than solving it imo.
And I do agree that it was not helpful that most people just wore the masks, and said if you donβt like it shop online. This is why I am for prohibiting businesses from imposing medical interventions on customers. They should be sued for discrimination at the very least.

That and venting on social media. Sometimes, I believe THAT'S the reason SM was created. To provide a way to vent off pressure rather than taking try physical action.. People don't realize they're all screaming into a black hole.

~July 4,1776
Americans did not even have the intelligence or back bone to refuse to wear a useless germ breeding mask on their face and even worse on their children and you expect them to stand up and overthrow this corrupt government? There is NO ONE in DC that is going to stop the crimes because both ALL R and Ds are on the same side of the fence. The only answer is from WE THE PEOPLE but Americans no longer have what it takes to defend our country. I wish it were different but I have been an activist for freedom and liberty for decades and I have been extremely disappointed in the lack of back bone among the American people and because of this we will eventually be a slave class once again.
Some people like yourself can see the consequences of actions. Other people require the actions to hit them. The transistions from knowing and writing to knowing and doing is underway. Slow as molasses to Us, but is Rapidly as well as Unexpectably to others. We must continue in this march as well from writing to doing. Keeping in mind only 30% of the populace, historically, is needed for action. We have that %+ right now, it's just a coiled spring.
As in 1775 the bottom line issue remains the same, there is more than hope ......
https://ncrenegade.com/a-cops-advice-on-the-atf-pistol-brace-ban/
Well Iβm not too thrilled to have to hit bottom with them. Thatβs what it might take. Watching whales wash up dead with these turbines. I live 15 minutes from Brandon at the beach. They want these in our ocean here and guess what! All the energy will go to Maryland! You canβt make this stuff up. Seeing that we alone lived paper bags to plastic back to paper bags again. I have had enough of their bs.
I agree I have hope. I see things surprise me, some positive hope comes our way as this Marxism unfolds. When legislation comes up my dad would say first, does this give rise to anything bad or set a precedent. Something to think about when we get excited when itβs our teamβs legislation. Iβve seen the inside of politics, their are some good thankfully and one side is clearly evil intimidating and slick. We are not on an even playing field. Not even close, so I will never agree both parties are as bad. Spend time in your state capital in committees. See what the loons purpose and who testifies for and against and which party fights it. People would be amazed dems with any conscious would switch parties.
Agreed, while Leaders of Both parties must communicate with each other to get anything done, That they are friends seems very plausable. GW Bush & Clintons are friends, as an example.
However overall democRats are Crooks & communists, while there are some elected Patriots in the Repub party, too many are crooks and quislings.
The Real Problem is If the Majority of these people in DC are really "Representative"??? Sheesh!!!
Thank you.
Sadly the elites know this now as we responded like seals.
Only If We AGREE to Be trained clapping seals.
Can we include the NSA, CDC, DOJ, NIH, DHS, TSA and just about any other federal 3 letter entity?
And donβt forget DARPA
DARPA always flies under the radarβ¦ BUT for me, this agency is the braintrustof a lot of what we are currently seeingβ¦ they are the brains behind itβ¦. The FBI are the foot soldiers.
Sad I grew up military. My dad was a colonel retired pentagon biochemical warfare. He was a great patriot. He spoke of the military getting too liberal, rules of engagement etc. He passed in 2017. He said never underestimate the power of the American people. Heβs rolling in his grave. He would have been a whistleblower. He would have been at J6 and all the rallyβs. He said thereβs too many battles to fight, pick one and take it on. I hope he was right. I was always super proud of our DOD, and our military growing up. There were so many passionate more conservative folks involved then. Old school has left the room and new school loons have stepped in. The DOE NIH CDC DARPA DOD so on gone. Resembles nothing American or exceptional.
Donald J. Trump is the only person alive who has the courage to gut these corrupt agencies...and the equally corrupt politicians know it...as do millions of Americans.
Your comment does not address my questions. He knew NIH was corrupt but allowed Fauci to stay. He knew vaccines were not safe but allowed 2 former Pfizer execs to dismantle the committee to investigate vaccine safety. He said both of these facts from his own mouth. He STILL to this day pushes the deadly vaccine. If he is elected (face reality they will NEVER let him back in the White House) he will have another 4 years like the first 4 years. Impeachment and investigations on fake stories. I have questions. Did he know they were deceiving and lying to him? If not why not? Did Dr. Alexander warn him? This entire thing stinks at the roots.
He has gone off the deep end.
And take heart. He is the point man for a plan birthed after the CIA killed Kennedy and the gullable American people believed the Warren Commission. The plan has been in development since then, has a lot of Christian influence and military (loyal to the constitution) officers with Intelligence background working behind the scenes. Grand juries, indictments, military trials, convictions, imprisonments and executions and martial law are coming. The Storm is coming and nothing can stop it. Take heart, be patient, and trust God.
Did the American people believe the Warren Commission? I donβt think they did. None of the men and women I know of that age ever believed it, they were left just with more questions.
Thanks. I put all of my trust in God and very very little in man.π
God uses people, the Body of Christ, to bring forth his plans.
You are absolutely right.

Thanks. Boy if I had a genie in a bottle and was granted one wish I would wish to be President for 24 hours with unfettered authority to do whatever I wanted. We would be looking at a totally different government when I got done.
Yes, but how? Didnβt Kennedy want to reform & he was murdered?
Amen to that!
Most of those 3 letter agencies are really unconstitutional to begin with. That should be the bar to keep them in existence or eliminate them without recourse.

Sadly some did but most did not. Thanks.
Those intel asshats need to learn to code, sure. I worry where all their evil indoctrination and training would land. It must be done carefully .
Jeff. I have stayed quiet for long enough and need to fan gush for just a minute. I really look forward to your write-ups, and I even read while having my (2nd cup) morning coffee. Itβs only preceded by coffee (1st cup) with God and hubby. You have a knack for covering most of what is important to me, so I can decide whether to disconnect from news for the day, or dig a little deeper. But the best part is that you write in a way that fits my perspective on life in general, and that is βif you donβt laugh, youβll cryβ. So thank you. Thank you for all the showing up you do; whether itβs listening to political drivel, or watching headlines of various sketchy sources, or scrolling social media, and much more im quite sure. Thank you. Much love and many prayers to and for you and yours.
I am with you. Spot on and well said.β₯
SadieJay, Shari, Rosalind, and Lynn - itβs good to know Iβm virtually with fellow appreciators of coffee with serious news/humorous spin. It has lifted my day and prepped me for going out the physical world of crazy. I can better smile to myself and remember Iβm not alone. Cheers βοΈ β¨βοΈ
I think of this & a few other substacks as a safe haven. I feel an obligation to know whatβs going on & the comment section is a good , kind, intelligent & supportive community, full of helpful responses, unlike most social media. And itβs ok here to show faith in God- lacking elsewhere.
Definitely agree on all points, especially re: mentioning faith in God. I donβt have to worry about personal attacks or inciting comments. In the comments I often find rabbit trials and interesting nuggets to tuck away for future potential use. And bonus: I can even let my 15 yo daughter read the stack without worry! Weβve both learned so much. :)
Iβm extremely encouraged by a growing number of sites and especially substacks where traditional, Christian perspectives are being boldly shared. The Epoch Times comments, e.g., are pretty solid, and Dr. Robert Malone has no problem acknowledging the spiritual nature of this battle, although he is wonderfully diplomatic and inclusive.
Several years ago, I told my kids that I sense a new Great Awakening emerging in the US. Lately, Iβm seeing it. βIf my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their landβ 2 Chronicles 7:14. Thatβs a promise. Letβs claim it and live it.
Your words are so positive and upward looking, and that particular scripture is so centering. Love it!
Rosalind, agreed!
Same here! This is my favorite substack and the only one I read daily. Jeff is the best at summarizing and drawing attention to key points one might miss on a casual glance; words matter and nothing gets by him. The comments section is an added bonus and I love the community here:) Prayers for all for discernment and wisdom as we navigate conversations with each other and our circles of family, friends, work, etc.
Yes this stack is also the one I read the most, primarily because Jeff has such a way with words. Our combined prayers for discernment and wisdom are absolutely a must and more and more needed. I know I had gotten a little too comfy spiritually before 2020, so Iβm really enjoying the reinvigoration of my own relationship with God. Trials refine us and purify hearts. Iβm grateful for it.
Me too! Comfortable Christianity is NOT a good place to be. I love the people on here and it is a treasure. I learn so much from following a rabbit trail or not through the comments. Blessed indeed.β₯
My sentiments, as well. Thank you, JT, for expressing them for me. God bless Jeff Childers and this community.
Great post, I feel the same way about the daily round up from Jeff! I especially love his optimism and faith!

Hat tip!!!
Anyone want to guess which types of Catholic perishes were the least likely to push vaccines and the most likely to write religious exemption letters for their members? Yep, the ones currently being investigated.
Also, I know a lot of the participants in the scary, patriarchal "assault rosary" Men's marches, and they're mostly led by young men who are Vietnamese, Hispanic, and Korean. Such white supremacy!
Catholic perishes <-- such a lovely Freudian slip! π€¨
I am Catholic and I am offended by your remark.

π¨ It is the test of a good religion whether you can joke about it. ~~G.K. Chesterton

Investigated or did you mean infliltrated with FBI agents trying to win over sheep?
Yep
we don't need an FBI. shut it down and shift all cases to each states US Marshall's office.
I was just thinking the same thing. Fire them all. Dismount. Dissolve. Goodbye FBI - itβs time to simplify !
Sarah, it's coming.
Donald J. Trump is the only person alive who has the courage to gut these corrupt agencies...and the equally corrupt politicians know it...as do millions of Americans.
Yup. 100%.
US Marshalls office is not equipped to do so.
I appreciate that you compared democrats to monkeys. All they've been doing lately is fling poo at those outside their cage.
The key here is that it is their own poo.
Perfect analogy. ROTFLMAO
βThe FBIβs report described conservative catholics who prefer the latin mass as being prone to commit racial and ethnic violence, because they follow Jesus. The report suggested having agents infiltrate several conservative catholic activist groups.β
Yes, this hit the news big time on all conservative Catholic sites, yesterday. Because Traditional Catholics love and serve Christ, rejecting the infiltration in the hierarchy of modernism heresy, and growing in numbers, we are a threat to the government and the Vatican. It was past time to be brushed with the false accusations of extremism and racism so beloved by liberals.
Note the phrase "because they follow Jesus". They don't even bother hiding it anymore. This is an ideological war and America's churches better wake up and realize that they will be one of the first ones targeted when the gloves come off the Nazi fist. Pastors: Man up or get out.
Cardinal George-
I expected to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square.
His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history.
Yes, looks like Cardinal George was right.
Jesus is the ultimate disrupter. What an immeasurable threat love+truth are to the power structure.
Hang in there. Iβm not Catholic but Iβm a fellow believer. True persecution may be on its way for all of us.
I would say it is already here. The mandates, one instance, forced many to choose between conscience and worldly wants. Many chose unwisely. Some, like me were discriminated against but we held strong.
Agreed but things are going to get much, much worse. Mass roundups haven't started, yet. I bet some people thought WW2 was the end times with what the Nazis did.

In my Peter's Pence donation this weekend there will be a note...
BRING BACK THE TRIDENTINE RITE! (Traditional Latin Mass)
Why would any decent person (which I believe you are) EVER give a penny to Peter's Pence?
C'mon fellow Catholics! Stop giving money to these homosexual poofters who will use it fund cocaine fueled parties with their homo rent boys. (That's not just hypebole, this actually happened at the Vatican.)
be careful Freddy, God penalizes those who bear false witness.
You witnessed those acts at the Vatican?
Seriously? You didn't already know about this?
Read here: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/truth-about-vatican-sex-and-drugs-scandal/
The Vatican Police arrested a wrong doer who will face judgement in a court of law.
What's the problem?
Sounds like they are trying to do the right thing!
Even Benedict XVI wrote about this in his post mortis publication. Paul VI said the smoke of satan has entered the sanctuary- 50+ years ago. God will take care ofHis church but there will have to be a purge.
Huh?
The Vatican is infiltrated with powerful homosexuals holding cocaine-fueled homosex orgies, and you wonder what the problem is?
There is none so blind as those who will not see. You made a factual statement; βThe Vatican is infiltrated with powerful homosexuals holding cocaine-fueled homosex orgies...β. M Varr has an obvious problem with the truth.
I hope just the note and no money.
Not a nickel. The hostility to the Traditional Latin Mass is uncalled for and needs to be stopped.
Yes, but do they vote conservatively?
Amen.
Enjoy that weekend and forget for a few days all the articles you want to write. There will be time for that, but your wife only turns 50 once ! Happy Birthday girl !
This mess with the FBI is highly disturbing. Our family are traditional Catholics, we homeschooled our kids, they learned Latin and Ancient Greek, we are conservative. Theyβre targeting people like US!
We are right there with you: Latin mass attendees/believers, home schooled children and a daughter who now teaches Latin and Greek to the next generation. My husband and I are third generation Californians who have never (one time I can safely use this absolute) voted for a liberal/democratic politician (nor have any of our four children). What has happened to our state and country is very troubling and yet "our leaders" believe the only people who can help save it are the problem? We did not get here because Latin Rite Catholics prayed too much, we got here because most did not pray enough. So many have turned their back on God and the devil is enjoying his time. Until we turn back to God, this living hell will continue, but we will never be lost. Stay close to Our Lord and others who trust in His ways. The battle for our souls has been fought and won, we must never lose hope!!
Christus Vincit, Christus Regnat, Christus Imperat!
Amen, Kate! And Iβm so grateful your kids are carrying on the faith. Our youngest is 19 and weβve still got one at University of St Thomas. The others are on their way and all have kept the faith...no marriages yet, but one is engaged and will be married next year! That particular one STILL loves his Greek and Latin. He even won several national awards for Latin against public school seniors when he was a homeschool freshman and sophomore.
I agree with you that all must turn back to God. He is calling for us. I see it everyday!
My youngest (used to call her "my latest and greatest" but my wife eschews that appellation) is graduating from an evangelical university this Spring with a degree in Math. Last year she won the university's annual "English" award even tho she's a Math major.
And best of all, she's a Latin scholar and continues to attend the TLM, as she was raised.
Deo gratias!
Deo gratias, indeed, Fred! Love that she's a Latin scholar as well as a math whiz. So what did she win the English award for? Was there a competition that she entered with a particular writing project? Sounds fascinating! The TLM is amazing (and now terrorist, I guess hahahahaha), we love it!
No competition - the University simply chooses those whose work in English (my daughter though not an English major took many English literature courses along with her degree field) went above and beyond.
It was a complete surprise to all - including her! She's a real Renaissance woman, a star college athlete who now coaches competitive volleyball and who is going on to Architecture school next year.
I'm slightly proud.
You SHOULD be proud! I pray she becomes an architect who designs with beauty in mind, rather than just utility as most do today. We need beautiful buildings.
Amen, sister!
Bonum, verum, pulchrum - the motto of my daughter's Augustinian preparatory school.
Well, I *can* say that she has been deeply influenced by the architect Thomas Gordon Smith and his work on Our Lady of the Annunciation of Clear Creek Abbey in Eastern Oklahoma.
That, and the fact that her former attorney father advocates making the erection of a metal building at least a misdemeanor, (2nd offense felony with jail time.) LOL
I just looked it up, Fred. Beautiful! Hillsdale built a chapel a few years ago designed by Duncan Stroik. I think your daughter might like his style too.
https://www.liturgicalartsjournal.com/2020/03/duncan-stroiks-chapel-at-hillsdale.html
Haha Thatβs beautiful, Fred. Please, for me, give your beautiful daughter my love. We will pray for you and your family tonight.
And I am so happy for you and the larger church!! It is always so wonderful to know of how many young adults are continuing in their faith even with the love of Latin and Greek!! Truly a blessing for which we thank you!! Congratulations to your son for his awards, that is fabulous!
Parenthood is definitely a humbling experience and I cannot thank God enough every time I speak to our grown children. In these crazy times, I attribute their continued faith to Our Dear Blessed Mother as we used to pray the rosary daily as a family (which as small kids they were not super happy about) and which I still pray today. My husband and I are the humbled parents of four college graduates (one with a Masters in Sacred Theology, another to finish his masters in Theology in May- but refusing to get his PhD because he does not like Greek, unlike his sister (and your son) who loves it!!) and all still practicing their faith and even helping one another stay close to God (they talk and ask questions of each other when strange things come from the Vatican or Bishoprics) and truly not because of us, but because Our Lord and his Mother are far more faithful than we can ever imagine. What the future holds, no one knows, but I continue to remind them the true battle has been won, our souls saved, and the pressure the outside world continues to hurl at us will make us stronger if we so choose, as Our Lord has given us the choice. I pray they as well as yours and so many others choose their faith over any world goods.
I tell you what, Kate, we are blessed by God. Parenting IS difficult even in the most ideal of situations. This world has made even the βidealβ situation one that is rife with struggle regarding the holy charge of parenting.
When I see our children, moving forward under Christβs mantle (making mistakes, yes), it IS humbling because I know that for them to prevail, as they have, is a great feet.
Congratulations to you AND your children for this great victory!
Amen!! And you and your family are in my prayers for continued strength and perseverance as we trust Our Lord and his dear mother to grant us the graces we need to find their peace in this world as we journey together to our final home!!
Thank you, sweet Kate. And you, likewise, are in mine. Tonight we will pray for you as a family.
Oh and itβs funny that you ended your reply with Christus Vincit, etc. That is my favorite hymn! Also, Iβm reading a book right now with the same name about Bishop Athanasius Schneider. Itβs a wonderful read. I highly recommend it.
Itβs clergy like Bishop Schneider who give me hope.
Same for us! I wish there were more like him and the (too few) others we look up to.
Yes, but I look to him, Archbishop Vigano, Bishop Strickland, Cardinal Burke, Fathers Altman, Altier, Goring, Heilman, and the many conservative cancelled clergy as my mentors.
They, and Cardinal Sarah, are all incredible!
It is a beautiful hymn and a beautiful saying and reminder And another one of my favorite sayings comes from the Polish general Jan Sobieski who saved Vienna from the Muslims - Veni, Vidi, Deus Vincit!!
I too read that book and agree it is worth reading as he has been a beautiful light in this darkness.
You read it too? Thatβs amazing! I loved that book. It was so inspiring.
Truly it was. We are fortunate to have so many wonderful resources from faithful Catholics: from the early church fathers to the sadly small number of Cardinals today. I need their testimony for my daily hope.
You are right! And I know how evil the Internet can be, but my faith has been deepened SO very much by many of the people I engage with here and elsewhere.
And mine as it is so good to know our church and our country have so many people working to keep them whole! Pax et Bonum!
You know what they say, Samantha. The Devil hates Latin! In nomine Patrii, et Filii, et Spiritu Sancti! (and I'm sure my Latin-speaking son would have something to say about my translation :))
Yes! I have a book called, The Devil Knows Latin, which speaks to why Latin is the official language of the universal Church. It also talks about him hating Latin as well. Great book.
Thanks for the book recommendation!
You're welcome!
I donβt know Latin. Our son was in a classical school and would have been learning it (therefore so would we), but that school is a very bad fit for a creative kid who doesnβt fit the traditional school mold, so no more Latin {yet} for us. But I must admit feeling a bit of jealousy about you allβs use of it! Maybe in another couple of years we can work it into our school curriculum. Weβve spent the last two primarily recovering the joy of learning and remediating what the school didnβt teach well for him.
My youngest son just "got" Latin. He has actually thought about studying linguistics in college and has often talked about making up his own language, a la JRR Tolkien :) He's kind of a Latin geek, to be honest.
Recovering the joy of learning is super important so I think having your focus there is good, Copernicus. Public school - where my son started - just beats the joy out of kids. In 4th grade, the year of ELA testing, they told me my son wasn't doing well on the practice exams. Bear in mind that my son had already read The Hobbit, the LOTR trilogy, all of the Narnia books and had stacks of papers under his bed with his own made up stories. They explained that their goal was to make the kids "technical readers" because their future would involve reading manuals - like putting together a gas grill. I went home from that conference, called my husband, and found a small, classical Catholic school in which to enroll my son. Best thing we ever did.
NAB, God BLESS you for doing that for your son. I know it sounds strange, but I venture to say you and your husband SAVED your son in a real way. Gives me tears of joy.
My only regret is that my four older kids all went through public school (but the situation was much different then). If I had to do it all again? Probably would homeschool them all. The small, classical school is amazing, but not without its issues too.
Public schools have changed dramatically just in the past 15 or so years. It's crazy. Well, even homeschooling isn't without its challenges. Granted, it's definitely worth it, but some days...<wink>
Oh good grief! What a load of manure! Glad you have found a better option for your kiddo!
Because perish the idea that we ought to expose our kids to great literature so they can read THAT! Anyone who can read Tolkien can read a manual for setting up a gas grill. As long as the English translation isnβt too messed up. π.
I remember my husband saying, "Uh, have they seen those Lego manuals? I'm sure he can handle a gas grill assembly." :)
Have yβall thought of homeschooling? We have great curriculums to suggest for Latin and ancient Greek
And, homeschooling is perfect for creative kids. Itβs scary to think about, but you CAN do it.
Oh, weβve been homeschooling for the last few years! This our ability to focus the first two years simply on recovering the joy of learning!!
It is hard and amazing and infinitely better than traditional school, yes, even on the days when there is a lot of yelling. Haha.
There was zero possibility of doing Latin our first year because our kiddo had an allergic reaction to nearly anything that was something the old school had done. Now that we are a couple of years out of that, weβve been able to resume some of the things, like nature notebooks, that were very sweet parts of that school experience. So perhaps in another year or two, Latin will once again be on our curriculum list. We shall see.
Happy to hear curriculum suggestions and what you like/don't like about each one. Especially if one or more are more, or less, suited for kids with learning differences or kids who need to see the big picture before being taught all the minutiae. I will make notes for the future. Thanks!
My favorite Latin curriculum for littles up to high school is Latina Christiana, then Henle in high school. My absolute favorite for ancient Greek is "Andrew Teach Me Some Greek!" It's such a great curriculum that I learned it while teaching it. Also, by just listening to me teach the others, one of my boys, when he was barely 4, started reciting the Greek lessons I was teaching the others on his own!
Jim Jordan is Lucy holding the FBI football and promising us Charlie Browns that we are really going to kick the hell out it this time...
...and nothing ever happens.
Just like the last time and the time before and the time before.....
Pure theatre and nothing else
I hope you're wrong...guess I'm a "Charlie Brown" at heart... π
I forgetβcan a congressional committee refer anything to the DOJ? Where real punishment could happen? Not that the current one is of any use to truth. I often just cannot watch any of this theater hijinx. Plus who covers it? βThe revolution will not be televisedβ.
You make a good point. If there is no mechanism for punishment because the agencies charged with this are themselves deeply corrupted then what is the point? There will be media silence so it wonβt even serve to wake up the sleepers . It really does seem like theater. Even so, I wish I were wrong and that there was real hope of reform but the Deep State seems almost permanently entrenched now. So depressing!
And there will be no mechanism as long as the communists are in power. The FBI has been weaponized as the President's personal SS gestapo. Just as with the US military, the real FBI agents are being culled from the service leaving only SS Nazi thugs.
"Deep State" is just "Deep Statists", PEOPLE that get up and put their pants/panties on every AM. Just People, Not gods. No need to put them on a pedistal of invincibility.
They are "organized" with lower level Apparachik Polezi to carry out their orders. Nothing More, Nothing Less.
Yes General, theyβre just normal people like you or me. It was normal people who just βwent alongβ who enabled the 3rd Reich. The banality of evil as Hannah Arendt put it. All we can do is stand for truth and be willing to take the consequences. This is what we are called to do so that we are not complicit. But itβs not easy.
It's building in the foundation that they must rig 2024 because their LIVES depend on it! Buckle up.
I'm fairly certain nothing will happen to these people. At least, not anytime soon with the current Biden regime at the DOJ. But....I'm glad these hearings are taking place and exposing the evilness. Whether people pay attention and realize how corrupt these agencies are, is up to each person but at least the information is publicly available for the taking. Conservatives have been frequently criticized for letting things slide, cheek turning, and not fighting back. What's happening now in the House are Republicans who promised to fight back...and that's exactly what they're doing. With these hearings, we now have a record...a record that may come back to haunt these evil doers in the future should Republicans gain majority in the senate & WH which will also mean new leadership within the DOJ. It's a long shot for sure but I'm remaining hopeful because I know good will always prevail evil. Now....whether I live long enough to see it is a different story! Lol!
OK, let me add to my gloomy, "realistic" comments. The good news is that their narrative is broken and visible for all to see. The tide is turning, the dam is breaking. The Great Divide is happening. They have lost control, especially with the opening of free exchange again on Twitter, thanks to an unnamed billionaire. People are looking. We have to keep exposing and this is what the House is doing.
Just in time for a large false flag. Chinese War balloons or "unidentified" crafts being shor down maybe? I see "aliens" in our future, like Reagan said before the UN in 1987. WORLD PEACE βοΈ
Politico Phil, I agree. (see my above comment)
Below comment
exactly it
Jordan is running a limited hangout
No one is fighting back
Republicans had Majorities before
Nothing happened
Nothing ever happens
It is all a show
What's important here is the American people are see the corruption and manipulation for themselves and when we reach critical mass "in the know" they will not rebel or riot in the streets when "The Plan" is initiated with martial law and arrests of some important, seemingly good poeple, and military tribunals with executions.
That's what I keep saying
NOTHING. EVER. HAPPENS...
I can just say, even if it leads to nothing, he is still bringing it to light. May he be a David against Goliath.
this is what I keep saying...
NOTHING. EVER. HAPPENS...
Yes, I feel like weβve been here so many times before. And yet I canβt help but hope it will be different this time. But I sure wouldnβt bet on it.
Nothing happens? Peter Strzok was fired....don't fall into "Eeyore" despair and despondency.
Aug. 13, 2018 WASHINGTON β Peter Strzok, the F.B.I. senior counterintelligence agent who disparaged President Trump in inflammatory text messages and helped oversee the Hillary Clinton email and Russia investigations, has been fired for violating bureau policies, Mr. Strzokβs lawyer said Monday.
Strzok got fired. He didn't go to prison. He got fired. . Like I said, nothing happened. Last I knew he was teaching at Georgetown
I only despair that people still believe in the two party system and Muh Constitution
Good points on not in prison.
Poor Peter. He got fired :
"GoFundMe page for fired FBI agent Peter Strzok raises $325,000 in one day"
"In less than two weeks, Strzok has raised $460,000 of a half-million dollar goal."
C&C Army, I wanted to give you a little update on Michelle. Thanks to the generosity of many of you, Michelle reached her goal between Give Send Go and private donations and is making her payment today to get her house out of foreclosure proceedings.
Thank you so much for being willing to help this courageous woman; she is extremely grateful for the abundance shared with her.
Wow. Josh. who is this Michelle?
This is Michelle Rogers who worked for a company that imposed a COVID-19 vaccine mandate. She filed for exemption based on religious belief and was denied. Michelle was fired in Nov 2021 for standing on her religious beliefs.
wow
The FBI was an intelligence agency under Hoover. Why would it be any different now?
Even the FBI says so:
https://www.fbi.gov/about/faqs/what-is-the-fbi
disgusting
LACK of intelligence, perhaps ?? π€·ββοΈ
Nah, just using their powers for evil rather than good.
HAHAHA!! I just started reading and can't stop laughing:
"itβs almost like having a blogging husband is a plus"
She's probably over there saying, "Yeahhhhh, right..." HAAHAHAHAHA
Ok, now on to the rest.... And, Happy Birthday WEEK, Michelle. As I said yesterday!!
Almost is almost like the new if (of Spartans to king Philip) π
Both of you enjoy your well-deserved birthday weekend getaway. It will be hard for us all if there's no weekend updates but we'll make it.
