CRISIS PREGNANCY CENTER: On Tuesday, CompassCare in Buffalo, New York, suffered major damage when the pro-abortion activist group, Jane’s Revenge, firebombed the building. Click the link if you want to donate towards repairs.

END TIMES PROPHECY: On Jan. 15, 2022, a visionary named Lorena reported that St. Michael the Archangel told her, “The pre-Tribulation has already begun for a long time and the Tribulation is about to begin. When everything is at its worst, God the Father will send the Illumination of Consciences so that men repent and can return to God.”

FETUS-PHOBIA: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=452729569352932 [4:26] to hear Kristan Hawkins argue with an angry lesbian about who has the right to hate and kill other people. Research has demonstrated repeatedly that it’s pro-lifers who do the most to help mothers and babies after birth. Pro-aborts love to condemn us for not doing anything or not doing enough; what do they do besides promote killing unborn babies?

J6: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1176645229573699 [7:41] to hear Peter Navarro talk about the manner in which and the reason why FBI agents arrested him, hauled him away in cuffs and leg irons, strip searched, and denied food, water, and a phone call. He lives across the street from the FBI. But rather than phone or knock on his door to request a voluntary surrender, they leaked to the press and waited until he was at the airport, so they can perform for the cameras.

He says this is unprecedented, and it may be if only because he was a senior White House official. But what they did to Roger Stone was worse, alerting the media and sending a SWAT team to his home so they could storm in while being filmed taking down one of Trump’s men. Mrs. Stone is DEAF, so she was awakened at dawn by scary guys in guns standing by her bed!

Navarro talks about what it’s going to cost him to hire a lawyer and fight this. The Stones lost everything … all their savings, their home, cars, reputations. The only thing he didn’t lose was his freedom, because after he was convicted and sentenced to 40 months in prison, Trump commuted his sentence and later pardoned him.

Interestingly, he was convicted for defending Trump of the false Russian collusion claims, but was convicted and sentenced to prison. Recently, we saw how Sussmann, one of the people who perpetrated the Russia hoax on behalf of Hillary, was acquitted. This is not who we’re supposed to be about in this country, but it is how “justice” works in Democrat ‘Merikkka.*

*The people in the white KKK hoods were all Democrats. The people who fought a Civil War to preserve their right to own slaves were all Democrats. The people who passed all those Jim Crow laws Democrats now weep crocodile tears about were all Democrats.

MONKEYPOX: On Monday, the CDC recommend that people go back to wearing masks when traveling because of monkeypox. The only U.S. cases have been among men who have had sex with other infected men, plus a few of the unfortunates who have had sustained contact with them and their belongings, because they share their households.

NEW JERSEY: The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) has notified the New Jersey Secretary of State that the Jersey’s voter rolls contain tens of thousands of registered voters who have missing or fake biographical information. For example, nearly 2,400 active voters are allegedly more than 100 years old, including many who are a lot more based on their registered birth dates.

Even odder are the ones with birth dates that haven’t happened yet; are the clerks complicit or just stupid? In addition, more than 8,200 people are registered twice, 61 more are registered three times, seven more are registered four times, three more are registered five times, and one is registered six times.

It occurs to me that, if PILF can find this, then the people running the elections in NJ could find this. Oh wait, they’re all Democrats. Never mind.

OREGON: More than a year ago, Oregon became the first state in the nation to decriminalize possession of personal amounts of heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, and other drugs. It’s been an utter failure.

Supposedly, drug treatment programs were going to be magically funded by tax revenue from the state’s legal marijuana industry, which didn’t happen. And, golly gee whiz, druggies didn’t much care. During the whole year, only 136 people entered treatment. Meanwhile, overdoses jumped by 700% in just one county.

And … this’ll shock you (not) … legalizing addictive drugs led to, can you imagine, a staggering increase in the amount of the crap dealers shipped into the state. Marijuana and oxy increased by more than 10 times; fentanyl increased by more than 20 times.

MARIJUANA: 90,010 lbs. seized in 2020 > 966,328 lbs. seized in 2021.

OXYCODONE: 1,189 doses seized in 2020 > 10,188 doses seized in 2021.

FENTANYL: 27,282 doses seized in 2020 > 482,111 doses seized in 2021.

PROJECT VERITAS: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=1004912026877007 [1:20] to hear a CBS documentary associate explain that CBS uses its own reporting to fact check its reporting.

BABY FORMULA: Rep. Kat Cammock says the Biden regime has been shipping pallets of baby formula to the border for months, where they are holding it in anticipation of the latest caravan coming from Mexico.

In better news, the Abbott Nutrition baby formula plant in Sturgis, MI, has finally reopened, nearly four months after the FDA shut it down. The closure of the plant was a central factor in America’s nationwide baby formula shortage.

CANCER: [7:31] – A small trial in which cancer patients were given monoclonal antibodies produced the first ever result of 100% remission in every patient.

EDUCATION: A Wisconsin judge has sided with parents who sued Kettle Moraine School District for hiding children’s “gender transitions” saying the rights of parents supersede those of school district administrators in determining what is best for their children. Evidence shows that 85-95% of children who are confused about their gender grow out of it if they are allowed to go through puberty normally.

END TIMES PROPHECY: This video is about spiritual warfare, which is becoming more and more important to understand and learn to do. “Don’t get scared. Just get prepared.” [1:38:45] – “Satan is not supposed to be able to stand up to God … but to lose to a 15-year-old Jewish girl? To lose to a little girl?!”

Lang is arguably one of the most persecuted January 6th defendants and political prisoners in America today.”

NIGERIA: On Jun 6, gunmen killed 50 people at St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo. So far, no one has claimed responsibility.

But in Ithaca, the Deep Blue Home of Cornell University, there are zero. They have a Planned Parenthood though. Imagine that.

S&G: [1:38] – The slippery slope is real. In the New York Post article, “Nathaniel” describes how he engages in intercourse with his red Chevy, which he has gendered as male and affectionately named “Chase.”

VAXXX: A French study suggests that the vaxxx may have contributed to the emergence of a new type of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). CJD is a rare disease caused by an abnormal protein in the brain called a prion. Prions naturally occur in the brain and are usually harmless, but when they become diseased or misfolded, they will affect nearby prions to also become misshapen, leading to deterioration of brain tissue and death. The new form is more aggressive and rapid in progression than the traditional form. There is no treatment for either form.

GRAMMY NOTES: I’m blown away right now. A friend of our own Mama Buzz is at the Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes and, get this, they had a video chat! Mama got to “walk” around the grotto area where Mary appeared to Saint Bernadette and where the healing waters still flow. What an incredible blessing for both of them. ❤

Be Perfect

Below is a link to the video showing the restoration of the little icon pictured above (before and after) with the translations of the inscriptions. If you watch it as a spiritual meditation, I think you’ll find that it goes far beyond just being an interesting look at an art restoration project.

I couldn’t help but think about God working on our souls as I watched the restoration. During the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus told us, “So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” – Matt 5:48. Thinking you’re a good person, because you haven’t done anything illegal or dastardly lately, is about as close to being perfect as this icon was at the beginning.

I spent quite a lot of time hunting down what the inscription means and I’m so glad I did! The letters on the top line, on either side of Mary’s halo, means Theotokos, which is Greek for Mother of God, the doctrine that Mary was not merely the uterine incubator, but Jesus’ true, physical mother.

The small letters on the right by Jesus’ halo are a Greek abbreviation for Jesus Christ. His pose with a book and two fingers raised, which is called Christ Pantokrator, represents His role as the All-Powerful, Omniscient One who “will come to judge the living and the dead.”

The hardest part for me to figure out were the letters on the left, above Mary’s shoulder. I finally deciphered it as being Greek for “The Mercy.” This reminds me of the last prayer of the Rosary that starts, “Hail Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, Our life, our sweetness, and our hope.”

This provides such a beautiful balance to the Christ Pantokrator. I love how she presents Him to us with her right hand, while holding Him close with her left. Their big eyes and the expressions on their faces speak to me of how much they knew of what He would suffer.

In the conclusion of his encyclical Veritatis Splendor (1993), St. Pope John Paul II wrote, “Mary is Mother of Mercy because her Son, Jesus Christ, was sent by the Father as the revelation of God’s mercy (cf Jn 3:16-18). Christ came not to condemn but to forgive, to show mercy (cf Mt 9:13). And the greatest mercy of all is found in His being in our midst and calling us to meet Him and to confess, with Peter, that He is “the Son of the living God” (Mt. 16:16). No human sin can erase the mercy of God, or prevent Him from unleashing all His triumphant power, if we only call upon Him.”

2A: Black women are the fastest-growing group of gun owners in the United States.

BIBLE STUDY: [22:10] – This Bible story has always confused me, but Brandon Robbins blew it wide open. The depths of meaning in it are incredible!

END TIMES PROPHECY: Eduardo Ferreira Mary in Brazil reports that the Blessed Mother gave him a message on Oct 12, 2021. Part of it was, “On this day I warn you that experiments on human beings will have very sad consequences for all humanity. The sign is visible, but many do not want to see it.” Hmm … I wonder if she’s talking about the ‘rona vaxxx. Also, “Pray for priests and missionaries. The time of the successor of Peter is coming to an end.”

MIDTERMS: A new ABC/Ipsos poll found 80% of Americans feel inflation will be an extremely or very important factor in how they vote. Seventy-four percent say the same for gas prices. I’m guessing the other 6% use public transportation.

S&G: At a Dallas drag show for kids, grown men dressed as scantily clad women taught kids how to catwalk like sex symbols in front of a neon sign saying, “IT’S NOT GONNA LICK ITSELF.” CLICK (or not) https://twitter.com/Ccampbellbased/status/1533462658556604417 [1:28].

CPC: On Friday, pro-aborts vandalized a D.C. Crisis Pregnancy Center. CPCs do nothing but offer pregnancy women choices other than abortion. Pro-aborts don’t believe in choice. They believe in killing babies.

END TIMES PROPHECY: The Easter season ended yesterday with Pentecost Sunday. Today, I am beginning a new spiritual feature. I believe the Tribulation period may have started last fall and that we are most urgently in need of the guidance being offered by God through His seers and Bible teachers. My plan is to post videos, which will mostly be too long, but give you in text form the bit I think is most important.

Today’s video[14:55] talks about the vision St. Malachy (pron. mal-a-kee) had in 1139, in which he was shown all the popes from his day until the end. Over the centuries, his vision has proven to be remarkably accurate. St. Pope John Paul II was the third from the end. Pope Benedict XVI was the second from the end. And Pope Francis is the last.

GROOMING: A North Carolina pre-school teacher has resigned after parents raised a ruckus over her using LGBTQ+ flashcards to teach the kids their colors.

LIFE: I saw the photo above on Facebook, then later, still on FB, I saw this posted by LiveAction. “We got this message on Monday. ‘I am pregnant and I was going to have an abortion… thanks to your page my mind changed completely. He or she is important to me already and you guys made me see this.’”

MEN: Real men aren’t toxic. They’re heroic. CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/728134744977935 for another one.

MIDTERMS: Rep. Chris Jacobs of the 27th New York congressional district, who once promised to protect the Second Amendment rights of his constituents, has decided he favors a ban on the AR-15. Since this puts him at odds with the party, he’s not running for re-election.

CLICK https://rumble.com/v177wyj-democrat-rep.-wants-to-ban-all-semi-automatic-weapons-but-know-what-that-me.html [:50] to hear a Dem rep talk out his butt cheeks about gun control.

“Automatic” means you can fire many bullets with one trigger pull. “Semi-automatic” means you can shoot one bullet with one trigger pull, then the next bullet moves into place. Almost every gun on the civilian market is semi-automatic, including revolvers.

Democrats want to ban anything that doesn’t require you to physically do something time consuming to your weapon to get the next bullet into the chamber. These include single shot pistols, double barrel shotguns, pump or bolt action rifles/shotguns, and historical guns, like breech loaders, used in military re-enactments.

MONKEYPOX: The CDC says there are 17 current cases of monkeypox in the U.S., sixteen of which are in men who had sexual relations with other men.

PRO-WHAT: The terms “pro-life” and “pro-choice” are essentially meaningless, which is why I prefer to identify as “anti-abortion.” There are people who identify as “pro-life”, like Joe Biden, who support abortion on demand up to natural birth. And there are people who identify as “pro-choice” who support sharp restrictions on abortion, such as allowing it only during the first three months. In addition, Gallup’s historical record shows that people’s identifications are heavily influenced by media coverage, suggesting they themselves don’t know what the terms mean.

PUBERTY BLOCKERS: There is seriously big money involved in foisting trans ideology on children. [3:38] – Side effects of the drug Lupron for children commonly include body aches or pain, chest tightness, chills, cough, cough producing mucus, difficulty in breathing, ear congestion, fever, headache, loss of voice, muscle aches, noisy breathing, pain or redness at the injection site, runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, and unusual tiredness or weakness. Less common are irritability and mood or mental changes.

WHAT IS A WOMAN: CLICK https://rumble.com/v176xnc-watch-matt-walsh-make-democrat-rep.-squirm-with-basic-questions.html [2:35] to see a clip from the movie. Poor Democrat politician can’t defend his party’s b.s. position, because it’s, you know, b.s. Fundamentally, they’re telling us that a tiny minority of neurotic males have more of a right to feel “comfortable” while performing intimate bodily functions in a public facility than do the vast majority of normal women.

GRAMMY NOTES: Part way through the Crowning of Mary decade of our Sunday rosary, I suddenly couldn’t speak. At all. I reached out and grabbed Dearest, who immediately said a binding prayer. And just as immediately, I could speak again. Boy howdy, do demons really hate the rosary!

ARIZONA: Joe Biden “won” the state by 10,457 votes. However, in Maricopa County, more than 19,000 ballots were accepted that had been received after the 7 p.m. on Election Day deadline.

In addition, True the Vote has given state lawmakers cell phone tracking data showing that certain individuals visited ballot drop boxes an average of 21 times. These people, believed to have been ballot traffickers, visited ballot boxes a total of 5,700 times.

Who needs to go more than once, or maybe if you’re going back for your elderly parents or something, twice? I don’t understand why ballot boxes are even a thing. I’ve been homebound by disability for decades and have always submitted my ballots through the USPS.

AVENATTI: Watch this to the very end, cuz LOL [1:53] – Once upon a time, Michael was the leftie media’s darling, because he was representing Stormy Daniels in her attempt to ruin Donald Trump. Between March 7 and May 10, 2018, he logged more than 100 CNN and MSNBC appearances where he was fawned over, because Trump.

Avenatti’s latest sentence came down Thursday … four years in prison for cheating Daniels out of $300,000 in cash from a book deal. The sentence will run concurrently with the 30 months he is serving for attempting to extort more than $20 million from Nike. But he also has to pay $148,750 to Daniels and $297,900 to the federal government. And California is waiting to have its turn on charges of stealing nearly $10 million from five clients.

BLM: The mayor’s office has confirmed that the still image was taken from a police officer body camera. Some accused Ngo of using a photoshopped image, because the fence and arm overlap and the left ankle is missing. This makes no sense. If the point of photoshopping was to make it appear that the woman was holding a gun, after early reports said she was unarmed, there would be no point to removing an ankle and then weaving the arm and fence together! LOL Ngo explains these two elements of the image are video compression and motion artifacts.

BORDER: Since FAUXTUS took over, the number of illegals estimated to be running around within our borders has grown from 10.2 million to 11.6 million. That’s about the same as the entire population of San Antonio, Texas.

EASTER MEDITATION: Message from Jesus dated May 21, 2022, as reported by Luz de Maria, an Argentinian seer and stigmatist [7:16] – The reference to the skin disease (presumably monkeypox, unless something worse is coming) was in Luz de Maria’s messages from Jesus on July 12, 2021 and from St. Michael the Archangel on Sept. 1, 2020 and Dec. 5, 2020. The plants recommended for treating the skin disease are calendula, mugwort, nettle, and geranium.

ELECTION FRAUD: Two Democrats in Arizona have been indicted for illegally harvesting ballots for their candidates in 2020. Alma Yadira Juarez has pleaded guilty to a reduced charge, while Guillermina Fuentes awaits her court date. She faces four felony charges, which include paying people to let her fill out their ballots.

Fuentes appears to have been the ringleader of a sophisticated ballot harvesting operation in San Luis. A former mayor of San Luis who now serves as an elected board member of the Gadsden Elementary School District, she is well known by the voters.

It’s interesting how hard the AP reporter (link below) worked to downplay the significance of this woman’s fraud. After Stacy and Hillary lost, Dems and their shills were positively SHRIEKING about election fraud. Now, “it never happens“, except when it does happen and then, “it doesn’t matter.” Kinda like Benghazi.

HUNTER’S LAPTOP: His search history shows he shared his porn and his phone with his dad. Well, isn’t that special …

HYDE AMENDMENT: A group of 48 Senate Republicans sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer stating that they will vote to block any bill that doesn’t include the Hyde amendment or other pro-life protections. The Daily Caller reports: “In the letter, the lawmakers say any legislation that undermines the Hyde Amendment, which ensures that U.S. tax dollars are not spent on abortions, will be shot down. The lawmakers added that the Hyde Amendment has saved close to 2.5 million preborn children over the course of 45 years.”

S&G: Liberals: You must approve of gay marriage, because people can’t help who they’re attracted to. Also Liberals: If you’re not attracted to trans persons, you must be canceled. [5:45] – In other news, Biden’s Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service announced it will prevent low-income students from participating in its National School Lunch Program if their public school does not allow kids to use the school bathrooms based on their personal gender identity.

THE CHOSEN: Definitely watch this one! [4:09] – Also, Dallas Jenkins asks for prayer for the production during this coming week as they film the feeding of the 5,000. “It will be, without question, one of the biggest weeks in the history of The Chosen. There are going to be over 10,000 people involved in the process. Please pray for focus, for safety –especially for protection from what could be brutal heat, which is my biggest fear right now for our guests – and for success in bringing to viewers a life-changing moment in history.”

WHAT IS A WOMAN: [3:17] – Maybe speaking out against trans ideology is why I was suddenly denied posting privileges by WordPress. It wasn’t anything a person did, just a glitch that just suddenly happened in the middle of my attempt to post on Jun 2. It went away after I logged out and logged back in again. If it happens again, I’ll do binding prayer. I have no problem believing demons can manipulate technology.

GRAMMY NOTES: My sister started dating her hubby in high school. The first time he came to pick her up, he was driving a car that had been hand painted black … with house paint … and a brush.

Good Guys With Guns

CLICK https://fb.watch/doYYu63rsu/ [1:28] to hear about what Laurens County, Georgia, has done to keep their kids safe.

FAUXTUS has claimed numerous times that the Second Amendment was never “absolute,” but always included prohibitions of certain weapons as well as limits on who could own them. That’s not even close to true. There were no restrictions on gun ownership until the 1930s.

We have a background check and disclosure process to try and prevent unstable or dangerous people from owning firearms. Disqualifying conditions include criminal convictions, dishonorable discharge from the armed forces, mental disorders, and narcotics abuse.

When Hunter Biden filled out his application for a handgun in 2018, he did not reveal his history of drug abuse. He got the gun and he handled it so negligently that his then-girlfriend tried to dispose of it, because she was afraid of what he’d do with it.

Hunter has never been charged. And since his dad has never pressed for his son to face justice, we can conclude that when he says “we must do more”, he does not mean “we must vigorously enforce the gun laws we already have.”

Under Biden, the ATF has been using minor clerical errors as an excuse to drive firearm retailers out of business. Since Dems stole control, federal firearm license revocations for retailers have increased 500% over previous years.

CLICK https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1532426539538821120 [:16] to hear Rep. Cicilline claim that there has never been a single “assailant using an assault weapon who was stopped by a person with a gun.”

So far as I can recall, every damn shooter who didn’t kill himself first was taken down by a person with a gun, including the Uvalde school shooter. … Oh wait, the ones who shot themselves were taken down by a person with a gun too.

CLICK https://rumble.com/v174mng-rep.-massie-schools-anti-gun-dems-on-reality-of-good-guy-with-a-gun.html [5:28] to hear Rep. Massie debunk Cicilline’s absurdly wrong statement. At another point in the hearing, Cicilline told Matt Gaetz, “Spare me the bullshit about constitutional rights.”

Isn’t their entire argument about abortion based on how it’s supposedly a constitutional right?

CLICK https://lists.grabien.com/list-good-guys-guns-stop-bad-things-happening to access a brief (315 cases) list of incidents from 2019-2021 where good people with guns stopped bad things from happening.

It’s pretty much impossible to accurately assess how many times a day a firearm was used to save a life. For one thing, the media is loathe to report on these “good guy with gun” stories. For another, a crime averted is often a crime unreported.

CLICK https://rumble.com/v173xd0-gop-rep.-pulls-out-his-personal-firearms-to-expose-dems-gun-control-scam.html [1:02] to see Rep. Greg Steube explain why banning certain magazines would make millions of hand guns unusable.

Nadler gets his panties in a bunch about Steube handling guns; Steube points out that he’s at home on video and can do whatever he wants with his guns.

The NRA website has an article from October 27, 2019 by Michael D. Faw. It’s call “Truth About Good Guys With Guns” (link below). One interesting thing he notes is that rising numbers of gun sales has coincided with decreasing numbers of gun crimes.

Faw also reports that two studies, using different methodologies, estimated that guns are used in self-defense in America somewhere between 55,000 and 2.5 million times per year. “Even if the lowest number here (55,000) is the most-accurate, this would mean that Americans use guns to defend themselves at more than four times the homicide rate.”

The NRA website also has a regular feature called “The Armed Citizen” where stories about armed citizens stopping crimes are gathered. One example:

“On Saturday, Feb. 5, a person in Snellville, Ga., called police to say they had found a person lying dead in the street. Investigating officials were able to determine that the person had been shot after allegedly initiating an assault on a person in a parked vehicle. According to reports, a man was sitting alone in his car in a parking lot when he was approached by the other man who was armed and began assaulting him. The individual sitting in the car was also armed, however, and was able to defend himself, shooting the attacker. As of press time, no charges had been filed in the investigation. Officers noted that Georgia is a stand-your-ground state and allows for the use of force, including deadly force, in self-defense. (news.monroelocal.org, Monroe, Ga., 2/6/22)”

CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=689136835489514 [6:43] to hear the Republican gubernatorial candidate talk about his opinion that schools need single point entry and well-trained, armed security and teachers on staff. Good comment: “Airport level (plane side) security has worked well for many years to keep out would-be attackers from our terminals. A similar system/process would work well for our schools.” – Jack Bryant

On a personal note, what Zeldin says about no consequences for making fake accusation in New York is true. We saw this up close and in person when a teen we had taken in was accused of “stealing” a soda. The clerk hadn’t seen it on the crowded-with-POS-crap counter and neither noticed the amount was off by 89 cents.

The manager call us and the teen went down immediately to pay for soda, but it turned out she had a grudge against this teen for accidentally outing the manager’s adulterous affair to her husband! So the manager insisted on pressing charges. The paper we got clearly said the value of the “stolen” item was 89 cents. The cop apologized to us, but had to fill out and file the report.

So Dearest had to take time off work, Teen had to take time off school, and her public defender had to show up in court FOUR SEPARATE TIMES, because the prosecutor couldn’t be bothered to even show up to either pursue the charge or dismiss it. That manager also NEVER had to show up or suffer any consequences AT ALL for her petty, mean-spirited, and costly action. Finally, the judge threw the case out in disgust.

2A: The meaning of “AR” (as in the AR-15 or AR-10 rifles) has never stood for “assault rifle” or “automatic rifle.” The AR stands for ArmaLite Rifle. ArmaLite is the company that developed the rifle in the 1950s. Wait, wut? It’s been around that long? Yup.

BABY FORMULA: CLICK https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1532087224342298626 [1:24] to hear Dementia Joe try to explain that he was told, but didn’t understand. Well, yeah. That’s been our concern. That he doesn’t understand. Also, he says he didn’t become aware of the problem until after April, but CNN reported about it on February 8th.

CATHOLIC: On Wednesday, Pope Francis named Cardinal Blase Cupich as a member of the Vatican’s Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments. Members of Vatican congregations normally have five-year terms. Cupich is among those bishops who join Frances in publicly encouraging practicing homosexuals and pro-abortion politicians in receiving Holy Eucharist.

EASTER MEDITATION: June is Sacred Heart of Jesus month. This devotion recognizes Jesus’ great love for us as symbolized by His heart. “Though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God something to be grasped. Rather, he emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness; and found human in appearance, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross.” – Phil. 2:6-8

Just as Satan twisted God’s rainbow to stand for PRIDE in sexual sin, so has he hijacked June. Proudly celebrating one’s sinful lifestyle is the opposite of what Jesus did when he humbly sacrificed Himself for our sins.

“Please stop labeling bishops who speak the truth of the Gospel as homophobic. God gave us sexual intimacy for the procreation of children and the deeper union of a man & woman in marriage. Stating this truth is not homophobia, it is simply reality.” – Bishop Strickland

EVERY MAN JACK: This company, which makes personal care products for men, deleted their oopsie pdq … but not before somebody took a screenshot.

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://rumble.com/v16yhhz-its-chaos-at-the-white-house.html [2:38] to hear Tucker report on pro-Biden news outlets reporting on chaos in the White House. This includes 21 Black staffers who have quit.

GAS PRICES: The Obama-Biden plan to hike gas prices to European levels is right on schedule.

LOSER: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=785198132639167 [2:15] to hear Judge Jeanine’s opinion about the verdict in the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial. I’ve tried to ignore the day to day, but I think this is worth hearing. Amber’s lawyer looks pretty pissed in the photo; I wonder if he’s been working for a percentage of the take.

MISSISSIPPI: On Tuesday morning, the remains of what appears to be a 16-week-old fetus was found amid sewage at a waste treatment plant in Natchez, Mississippi. The Mississippi Crime Lab refused his request for an autopsy and DNA samples, because it is not a crime to flush a non-viable human baby’s corpse as if it’s nothing more than a giant turd.

MASS SHOOTERS: CLICK https://rumble.com/v16ui8r-ted-cruz-shatters-the-lefts-favorite-gun-control-talking-point.html [3:00] to hear Ted Cruz debunk one of the Left’s 100% wrong talking points about mass shootings.

NEW YORK STATE: The abortion capital of the country now offers New Yorkers the option to choose “X” as a gender marker for driver licenses.

OHIO: Remember when “safe, legal, and rare” was a thing? Remember when choosing an abortion was “the hardest decision a woman will ever have to make”? Now it’s “no apologies, no regrets” and “kill the baby! kill the baby!”

REAGAN SHOOTER: The man who shot and nearly killed President Ronald Reagan in 1981 was found not guilty by reason of insanity in 1982, and remained hospitalized until 2006. He was allowed to live with his mother beginning in 2016 and has now been released completely from supervision. Federal prosecutors, mental health professionals and his legal team all agree that they have no concerns about his mental state.

RU-486: Planned Parenthood and other abortion businesses state unequivocally that chemical abortion are safe and easy. They know they’re not, but if they told women, “It’s going to be really painful and bloody, plus you might end up in the hospital or maybe die”, they wouldn’t sell so well.

S&G: In 2021, the BBC published a story about a lesbian woman who was raped by a trans “woman.” In the original report, the victim herself referred to the perp as he/him. The BBC recently changed the words that the victim had made in her own statement from he/him to they/them because this is what the trannie who raped her with his penis prefers.

2A: “A senile septuagenarian who drifts in and out of consciousness, who has his finger on the nuclear button, warns that it’s far too dangerous for society to allow ordinary citizens to own firearms.” – Dinesh D’Souza

ARIZONA: In Arizona, a teacher who arranged a drag show for students was later arrested after allegedly having sex with a student. Click the link to see a disgusting list of all the places in the U.S. “proudly” advertising drag queen events for young children and families for this summer. They say they’re not after your kids, that they’re not grooming them for sin. They’re lying.

BORDER: A judge has blocked the administration’s attempt to remove Title 42. I don’t know why it’s even a thing to reject people trying to cross the border – legally or illegally – who are sick. One of the main purposes of Ellis Island was to do physical exams to weed out people carrying contagious diseases and send them back.

CATHOLIC: [5:30] – Deacon Harold shares a recent negative experience he had speaking basic Catholic teaching at a supposedly Catholic school.

CHICAGO: Oak Park and River Forest High School administrators have decided that teachers will no longer be able to dock students for missing class, misbehaving in school, or failing to turn in their assignments. This list apparently came about as a result of looking at what failing Black students do most often to, you know, fail. Artificially inflating their grades isn’t going to change anything. They’ll still be as lazy and illiterate as ever. So basically, this is simply another move by elitists to ensure that none of those damn ghetto kids ever, Ever, EVER challenges their own precious offspring for a slice of the pie.

DIVERSITY: Inspire Insight and the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) are collaborating to rank the “viewpoint diversity” of corporations. The purpose is evaluating to what extent “companies respect their stakeholders’ freedom of expression and freedom of religion or belief as a standard part of doing business.” The scores are based on product and service offerings, human resources and employee giving, and political engagement and charitable giving.

EASTER MEDITATION: Obviously, private revelation and prophecy must be prayerfully discerned. [11:55] – To me, the most interesting point in the video above was that, on Jan. 15, 2022, a visionary named Lorna reported that St. Michael the Archangel, “The Archangel of the End Times,” told her the Tribulation had begun. Given the state of the world, this seems likely. So, if true, I guess those of us who were hoping for a pre-Trib Rapture are out of luck.

ETHIOPIA: In 2005, the country legalized abortion, supposedly to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality from illegal procedures. A recent analysis of the ensuing statistics shows it has actually led to an increase in both.

FLORIDA: [4:03] – A 10-year-old boy in Lee county was arrested and perp walked for posting a shooting threat against his elementary school. Lee County has a “fake threat, real consequences” policy.

An 18-year-old boy in Hillsborough County has been arrested for posting a photo with guns and tactical vest, plus a message asking for directions to the nearest school. He has been charged with making a written or electronic threat to conduct a mass shooting or act of terrorism.

CLICK https://rumble.com/v16qrgr-this-is-the-last-thing-youll-see…-florida-sheriff-issues-warning-to-schoo.html [:56] Florida sheriff issues warning to inform potential school shooters what will happen if try to hurt children. “We’re going to shoot you graveyard dead.”

FOOD SUPPLY: There has been yet another fire, this time at a large commercial egg farm in Minnesota that left thousands of chickens dead.

IDAHO: Due to the persistence of parents, a high school library has removed the two worst S&G books in its collection.

MONTANA: The state has eliminated the option to change the sex listed on a birth certificate to align with a so-called “gender identity,” pointing out correctly that sex “is an immutable genetic fact, which is not changeable, even by surgery.”

POPE FRANCIS: Continuing in his well-established pattern of politicizing the church, Pope Francis skipped over higher-ranking prelates in the U.S. to choose Bishop Robert McElroy of San Diego, California, for the College of Cardinals. The main job the Cardinals do is elect new popes, usually from among their ranks, though that isn’t required.

McElroy is infamous for being a central figure in the coverup surrounding now-disgraced former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, who was charged with serial sexual abuses. McElroy also supports the LGBTQ movement, the ordination of female deacons, and allowing pro-abortion Catholic politicians as well as the divorced and “remarried” to receive Communion.

Among the higher ranking prelates Francis skipped over is San Francisco Archbishop Cordileone, who recently banned Nancy Pelosi from receiving Holy Eucharist in any Catholic Church within the archdiocese. I’m with Cordileone, Sample, and the others who remember that receiving unworthily heaps further condemnation on these poor sinners’ already overburdened souls.

“Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.” – I Corinthians 11:27-29 (NABRE)

Woe to all the Deacons, Priests, Bishops, Archbishops, and Popes who put politics (or cowardice?) ahead of the proper pastoral care of the souls in their charge. Millstones come to mind. If you want to show your support for Archbishop Cordileone, click the Catholic Vote petition link below.

S&G: CLICK https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1530961663838392321 [:47] to see a brief clip of children dancing on stage with drag queens while the audience throws money at them. The event boasted a host of corporate sponsors, including Paramount, Singer, JoAnn Fabric, and the Los Angeles Public Library.

In better news, public pressure led to a Drag Queen Story Hour being canceled at the Air Force base library in Ramstein, Germany.

SUSSMANN: [2:48] – Maybe I shouldn’t be so gobsmacked that Hillary’s lawyer was acquitted of lying to the FBI. But I am. Also disgusted. And dismayed. “Our Legal System is CORRUPT, our Judges (and Justices!) are highly partisan, compromised, or just plain scared.” – Donald J. Trump

TRAVESTY: According to the moral teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, sodomy and other homosexual acts are considered a “grave travesty” and the church maintains that “under no circumstances can they be approved.” However, same-sex attraction itself is not a sin; all human beings are deserving of dignity regardless of race, creed, gender, or sexual orientation. You know, “love the sinner, hate the sin.”

UFOs: In May, a House Intelligence subcommittee held the first hearing about unexplained aerial phenomena in 50 years. I learned all I need to know about UFOs from Alien Intrusion: Unmasking a Deception by Gary Bates. I recommend both the book and the movie. I believe this information will be critical in the near future.

VAXXX: A research team at University College London reports that those who have taken the AstraZeneca COVID shot have suffered from Guillain-Barré syndrome by 20% above the norm. They did not find the same increase among those who got the Pfizer or Moderna shots, which use a different technology.

WHO: Representatives of 194 nations, including the U.S., will soon decide whether to grant the WHO the authority to manage future pandemics globally, including the power to sanction countries that don’t comply. These regulations would foster a “one-world government” in the name of public health. The globalists have also been trying to get their foot in the door of national sovereignty via climate and gun legislation. We know they’re going to succeed eventually, but the Bible doesn’t tell us exactly how.

WISCONSIN: The statue of Civil War hero Hans Christian Heg has been restored and rededicated at the Wisconsin State Capitol. Heg was an abolitionist who sustained mortal wounds fighting against the South. In 2020, a historically illiterate BLM mob had torn down, vandalized, decapitated, and thrown the statue into a nearby river.

Feast of the Visitation

CATHOLIC: On Friday, scumbags vandalized St. Augustine Catholic Church in Park Slope, Brooklyn, damaging two angel statues, desecrating the consecrated Body of Christ, and making off with a valuable 19th century Tabernacle. The sacristy – a room behind the altar where clergy prepare to perform mass – was also raided, with a safe cut open. Nothing was inside.

EASTER MEDITATION: [4:33] – This video made me think of Purgatory. This is no doubt a very imperfect metaphor, but I’m thinking that Jesus dying for our sins is kind of like this guy salvaging this disgustingly dirty rug from the trash bin. It needed a lot of work before it was clean enough to take into someone’s home or, in Jesus’ case, present to the Father. I’m reminded of C.S. Lewis, who said his church didn’t teach there was a Purgatory, but that he hoped it existed.

“Our souls demand Purgatory, don’t they? Would it not break the heart if God said to us, ‘It is true, my son, that your breath smells and your rags drop with mud and slime, but we are charitable here and no one will upbraid you with these things, nor draw away from you. Enter into the joy.’? Should we not reply, ‘With submission, sir, and if there is no objection, I’d rather be cleaned first.’ ‘It may hurt, you know.’ – ‘Even so, sir.’ I assume that the process of purification will normally involve suffering. Partly from tradition; partly because most real good that has been done me in this life has involved it.” – Letters to Malcolm, Letter XX

EDUCATION: An NEA survey found that more than half of our current teachers are planning to either retire or change professions. Next fall should be really interesting. Wouldn’t it be awesome if parents were issued education tax vouchers to spend where they choose? I have this dream of teachers opening small schools where they can teach what they want the way they want and parents being able to pick the one that fits best. The teachers would undoubtedly make less and have fewer benefits, but they’d have way more job satisfaction. And we would have a lot more kids who are actually educated.

FAUXTUS: Sorry, but yeah, the video 48 minutes long. I really thought I could find you a simple graphic that would explain ammunition. Nope. It’s way more complicated and, clearly, Slow Joe hasn’t bothered to learn any of it. However, if we’re going to defend the 2nd Amendment, we probably should know a little more than he does. So here you go. – CLICK https://rumble.com/v16pthy-biden-proves-just-how-clueless-he-is-about-guns.html [:37] to hear this freaking hypocrite blather about how we should all be limited to .22 caliber bullets. At least I think that’s what he’s saying. But the fact is, as he says it, this freaking hypocrite is actually surrounded by lethally accurate snipers carrying high caliber rifles! Years ago, my daughter was privileged to be part of a group of young Marines greeting a POTUS as he went from Marine 1 into the WH. She said that, shortly before Marine 1 arrived, a whole lot of scary guys with high powered rifles deployed all around the south lawn. They don’t typically show them on news footage, but they are definitely there.

KINDNESS: When a group of Colorado high schoolers learned that a sixth grader had been frozen out by his classmates on yearbook signing day, they literally lined up to fill his book with more than 100 signatures included paragraphs with words of encouragement, advice and even phone numbers. After that, the jerks in his own class who had refused to sign his book suddenly decided it would be cool and asked to sign it!

LOUISIANA: [9:23] – This is unbelievably horrible. And it makes me so angry that these two got bail, while people who committed misdemeanors on January 6 were denied and sat in jail for months!

MAGNIFICAT: It says a lot about the state of Western Civilization that so many people have never heard this beautiful canticle. Also known as the Song of Mary, the Canticle of Mary and, in the Byzantine tradition, the Ode of the Theotokos, its text is taken from Luke 1:46-55 where it is spoken by Mary when she visits her cousin Elizabeth. The Magnificat is one of the eight most ancient Christian hymns and perhaps the earliest Marian hymn.

GRAMMY NOTES: Our daughter forgot her homework. Her teacher docked them a grade per day for lateness, so she wanted us to bring it to her. To teach them the value of our time and the cost of gas, we had started charging them very reasonable fees for such services. (In other news, when they found out what it would cost them to get rides to and from the mall, they suddenly discovered public transportation. LOL) As I recall, our daughter paid us $18 to get her homework there on time! Life lesson learned. She didn’t forget again AND she is now an outstanding wife, mother, and Army officer.

SHORTS: I’m getting hooked on these Facebook shorts (less than 1 minute). Here are today’s faves.
