BALLOON: “What should’ve happened: ‘Good morning, Mr. Biden. A ChiCom spy balloon drifted over Seattle last night and we shot it down. We’re analyzing it now.” -John F. DiLeo
CATHOLIC: [7:15] – Fr. Jason Charron offers a beautiful response to Pope Francis’ obsession with normalizing homosexuality. “Do you not know that the unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers nor boy prostitutes nor sodomites nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God. That is what some of you used to be; but now you have had yourselves washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.” – 1 Cor 6:9-11
CINO JOE: During the SOTU, Biden promised to veto any attempt by Congress to ban abortion. CatholicVote President Brian Burch wrote, “Many Americans long for the days when the President of the United States had something more hopeful to offer the nation than how committed he is to helping abort our children.”
Senator Ed Markey from Massachusetts tweeted his abortion pride with, “I’m wearing my abortion pin from @PPFA to tonight’s State of the Union address. Abortion is essential healthcare and we need to codify this right.”
Pennsylvania’s Congresswoman Madeleine Dean tweeted her abortion pride with, “I say the word, I wear the word. Abortion care is health care. Abortion care saves lives.”
I’m glad I won’t be them on Judgment Day.
EARTHQUAKE: What with the “powerful earthquakes … from place to place” [Luke 21:1] warning that Jesus gave for the End Times, I thought it would be instructional to look up the worst earthquakes on record.
The strongest one ever recorded was in Chile in 1960, which registered 9.5 on the Richter scale where the maximum value is 10. Around 1,800 people were killed, thousands injured and millions displaced. Property damage was estimated to be about $550 million (~5.5 billion in 2022 dollars).
The deadliest one ever recorded was in Japan in in 2011. While only hitting 7.0 on the Richter, it killed about 29,000 and destroyed the Fukishima nuclear reactor, leaking radioactive material into the ocean.
The Turkey earthquake looks to be in the middle on both size (7.8) and death count (rising). The property damage will take time to assess.

EGGS: Farm Action, a farmer-led advocacy organization, has written to the FTC to express their belief that the scandalous rise in egg prices is not due to inflation or avian flu, but to “a collusive scheme among industry leaders to turn inflationary conditions and an avian flu outbreak into an opportunity to extract egregious profits reaching as high as 40%.”

“Do not think that I have come to abolish the law. … Unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” – Matthew 5:17,20
“From the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife.’ [But] some are incapable of marriage because they were born so; some, because they were made so by others; some, because they have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever can accept this ought to accept it.” – Matthew 19:4,5,12
SYSTEMIC VOTER FRAUD: Jay Valentine writes, “Almost nobody is crazy enough to say America has free, fair elections. … U.S. elections are rigged by both parties, and they are rigged with the active help of election officials or their acquiescence. Sovereign fraud — institutional election fraud by your government, first discussed on American Thinker — is real. We have the data to prove it!” CLICK to read the whole article, but I warn you. Your BP is going to skyrocket! ::grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr::
TRANS: The following is a Twitter thread posted by @martyrmade – “When I was working on my Jonestown series, it occurred to me that the internet might facilitate cults of unprecedented proportions, that rather than 1,000 people committing mass suicide, it could be millions. It’s increasingly clear that that’s exactly what the trans movement is.
“It bears every hallmark of a cult: isolates from former relationships, demands total identity transformation, irreversible acts to display one’s commitment, intolerance of heresy, severe penalties for leaving the group… It’s not suicide, but removal of genitals is one step away.”
VAXXX: Multiple studies are showing that the currently dominant strain of the ‘rona virus (XBB.1.5) is not impressed by the Pfizer and Modern mRNA bivalent serums. While antibodies rise somewhat after the jab, they are low and gone within 3 months. In addition, these serums were approved for use without any clinical data being available.
VFAUXTUS: [10:03] – The Dems are busy throwing Harris under the bus.
