2024: Apparently, DeSantis and Ramaswamy did the best during the first GOP 2024 primary debate and their war chests each saw a $1 million boost in the 24 hours following.

CLIMATE HOAX: Fourteen major American cities – Austin, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Seattle – are part of a global climate group dedicated to making our lives worse. Their 2030 targets include:

0 meat consumption

0 dairy consumption

0 private vehicles

3 new clothing items per person per year

I am about as far from being a clothes horse as you can get without joining a convent, but even I need more than 3 new clothing items per year.

DEI WORKSHOP: Above is one of the slides shown at a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Decolonization (DEID) workshop held recently at Western University. This indoctrination is required for all housing staff (e.g., residence dons, front desk staff, student advisors). CLICK the link to see three more.

EXORCIST: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlRbT5MfFSw [2:55] to see a small clip from a long interview I have posted in the past. In this one, Father Martins explains why even the most extraordinary demonstrations of knowledge and power by demons eventually becomes boring.

GERMANY: In June, one of the day care centers proposing a sexual exploration room sent an email to parents explaining the ten rules of the room, which made it clear that nudity, mixed sex examinations, physical and sexual games were all permitted, provided “No child sticks anything into another child’s body openings (bottom, vulva, mouth, nose, ear) or licks another child’s body.”

The backlash was so intense that the plan was scrubbed.

For now.

HAWAII: When CBS reporter and anchor Jordan Segundo went looking for footage of the devastation in Lahaina, he found a statue of Our Lady that was perfectly intact. The homes behind it were burned to the ground; the homes in front of it are still standing. CLICK https://www.instagram.com/p/CwH5JAzLC8n/?img_index=1 to see him show a 360° shot of the scene.

As of late Thursday night, more than 1,700 previously unaccounted for people have been deemed safe and well. One hundred fourteen are confirmed dead, while 388 people were still missing on the island of Maui.

ISRAEL: Some years ago, I reported on how Dr. Solowey had successful germinated the seed of the extinct Judean date palm tree that carbon dating showed was grown in 30 AD … the year Jesus began his public ministry. They’ve currently got five trees that are mature enough to bear fruit, which is absolutely delicious. CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bd75wjdTMnc [27:42] to see a lengthy report if you’re really interested.

MIRACLE: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkG0WYpyrvc [1:58] to hear Fr. Chris report that his mom has been healed liver failure, traumatic brain injury, and advanced Alzheimer’s disease. She says hi at the end and is clearly lucid.

PAPER STRAWS: Plastic straws have been banned in many places in favor of the allegedly more “eco-friendly” paper straws. A recent European study analyzed straws from shops and fast-food restaurants and found 18 out of 20 brands contained Poly- and Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

Although the concentration in a single straw is low, the chemicals, which could accumulate in the body over many years, have been associated with a number of health problems, including lower response to vaccines, lower birth weight, thyroid disease, increased cholesterol levels, liver damage, kidney cancer and testicular cancer.

SOCIALISM: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/V1c-sF8a3DQ to hear Margaret Thatcher destroy the Left.

WOMEN’S SPORTS: The International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) has changed some of its policies about trans athletes. Prior to this, there were no requirements beyond claiming to identify as female on the day of the competition. From now on, trannies must provide a valid passport bearing a female gender and undergo testosterone level testing. Any male who competes as a female is banned from male competition for a minimum of four years. Any trannie who can’t meet those requirements can compete in the new “open division.” It’s not perfect, since trans males still have biological advantages, even if they are on estrogen. But it’s a big improvement.

GRAMMY NOTES: I thought y’all might be interested in seeing Buzz’s speech device. There are different pages he can scroll through by topic. This is part of the “Personal Care” page. When he pushes a square, the device will say that word for him. There is room on each screen for 76 word squares, which are color coded. E.g., pronouns are yellow, verbs are green. I moved the orange ones to the top so you could more easily see how it works. Dulcamara is a homeopath that is useful for hay fever and headache. As you can see, Buzz has word buttons programmed not just for homeopaths and essential oils, but also for antihistamines and OTC pain meds. I think it’s a real testament to the effectiveness of these alternatives that he usually asks for them rather than for the drugs.

  1. Every time I hear someone kvetching about microaggressions, I think what a great country this must be, if major aggressions are rare enough that people have the leisure to kvetch about microaggressions.
