About chrissythehyphenated

I'm a 60 something wife, mom and grandmom who is homebound/disabled by severe hypersensitivity to chemicals. I fill my days with learning, loving and art. My favorite values are truth, generosity and gratitude.

Bits & Bytes

2024: Project 2025 is being organized by The Heritage Foundation. See the first link below. The graphic is from the second link. The following is from the third link:

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, “I know nothing about Project 2025. I have no idea who is behind it. I disagree with some of the things they’re saying and some of the things they’re saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal. Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them.” 

BIDENOMICS: The Economist tweeted the cover of its latest issue (graphic above) under “The presidential debate was awful for Joe Biden, but the cover-­up has been worse. The dishonesty of his campaign provokes contempt. He must withdraw.

Not The Bee notes, “Of course, The Economist itself covered up Biden’s condition until the moment it was impossible to do otherwise. But watching the Left attacking each other? So, so sweet.

Also at my #1 news source, Not The Bee, “Ladies and gentlemen, the housing market is in full Bidenomics recovery mode — and by that I mean it’s not recovering in the slightest.” As of May, there are 481,000 new homes sitting on the market without buyers, the highest level since 2008.

FAUXTUS: I have heard noises that top Democrat leaders like Nancy Pelosi are proposing evicting Dementia Joe via the 25th Amendment. I have to wonder if they are threatening it to get him to drop out of the race.

SCAM BAIT: I got this weirdly amusing email today. The attachment claims to be from Norton. I will not be opening it.

GRAMMY NOTES: Firefox has a new feature that I am loving. The graphic shows the review checks from two products that helped seal the deal for me. The product with reliable reviews costs more, but I expect it will be more than worth it when I don’t have to futz around with the junky one.

2024: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/idYECeXjK_Y and https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-fRA5XcXSmY to see some of the new Trump ads.

AUSTRIA: An anonymous faithful Catholic cut the head off an indecent sculpture of the Mother of God that had, inexplicably, been installed in St. Mary’s Cathedral in Linz, Austria, with the approval of the bishop! The “vandal” (aka, “hero”) man said that, without the haloed head, the statue was no longer a depiction of Mary, “which effectively ended the blasphemy and defamation.

CALIFORNICATION: The Land of Nuts and Berries just did an end run around parental rights. In a vote of 60-15, the Assembly voted to ban public schools from notifying parents that their offspring are transitioning.

CLICK https://x.com/CAFamily/status/1806383162534355198 [15:04] to hear how the pros treated one of the cons when he attempted to present a reasoned argument against the proposal. I was intrigued to note that Assemblyman Essayli was the first Muslim elected to the California State Assembly. He is also obviously a Person of Color. But oooh, he is also a ::boohiss:: Republican who supports parental rights … so Off With His Mic. It gets worse.

CATHOLIC HISTORY: This is the oldest known image of the Virgin Mary. It is located in the Catacomb of Priscilla on the Via Salaria in Rome.  It is dated circa A.D. 150.

FAUXTUS: At least one of Biden’s attempts to buy votes for himself and his failing party was blocked by two federal judges who were both appointed by Obama! On Monday, in response to Republican states’ lawsuits, Judge John A. Ross of Missouri and Judge Daniel Crabtree of Kansas blocked the Department of Education from either lowering payments or entirely forgiving student loans.

LEFTIES HAVE LOST IT: Below are some shorts about how far wrong the Left has gone.

SEX IS GENETIC: A study entitled “The role of mitochondria in sex- and age-specific gene expression in a species without sex chromosomes” was published last month in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences reveals vast differences in gene activity within the mitochondria of males compared to females. Hundreds of human diseases are linked to dysfunctional mitochondria, affecting muscles, organs such as the liver and pancreas, the brain, and even the eyes and ears. These findings indicate that treatments for these diseases should be tailored to the genetic sex of the patient.

REALITY CHECK: CLICK https://x.com/Rob_ThaBuilder/status/1808249456032469243 [:33] to see how a Proud of PRIDE woman reacted to being asked about her transition. LOL!!

GRAMMY NOTES: Funny and loaded with wisdom. [6:19] – I love what she said about the messy middle. It’s definitely true of art work, but also of our offspring and, well, everyone really. I think I need to take this thought to prayer today. “Lord, thank you for this reminder that I too am still in the messy middle. Please grant me the graces I need to keep forgiving myself for not being the perfect reflection of You that I desire to become.”

BAD MAN ORANGE: After the debate, his team criticized CNN for not making him look tan enough on television. Yesterday, FAUXTUS appeared looking like “a plastic container after you’ve had spaghetti in it.

BELGIUM: A Belgian court has fined Cardinal Jozef De Kesel and Archbishop Luc Terlinden more than $1,600 each in damages for having denied a woman entrance to training for the diaconate. Only men may be ordained at this time. And while this secular court decided, “nothing stands in the way for women to carry out the contemporary tasks and duties of deacons”, it stopped short of forcing the religious authorities to allow the woman in to the training course.

BIDENOMICS: In the last five years, salaries have fallen by an average of 8.2% while house prices have risen by an average of 56%. This is what Joe Biden calls “The Best Economy Ever!

CLICK https://x.com/_retrops/status/1807834611784818888 [:46] to see how, in just two years, a single order of groceries that cost $126 two years ago would cost $414. The gummint says groceries are up 25%, not 400% and Not The Bee notes how that particular order is worse than the average for food inflation. (E.g., one item was out of stock and cost $10 more than elsewhere.)

Still … we who live out here in Reality Land have all seen it. Those people who still want to re-elect Democrats are either insane, stupid, or too rich to notice a little thing like the cost of living.

COVID-19: A federal jury has awarded a woman almost $700,000 for having been fired for refusing to get a COVID-19 vaccine.

LIFE: On June 27, 2024, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Brian Aish has a constitutional right to share his pro-life views and Christian religious message while outside an abortion facility. The Thomas More Society represented Aish in his effort to vacate an earlier court order that blocked Aish from coming near a Planned Parenthood nurse.

MILITARY: Every time the Dems get into power, they do everything they can to castrate our military might. Now, they actually castrate soldiers … and We The Documented Citizens Who Pay Taxes finance it all.

CLICK https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/1807842381003399540 to hear a soldier express his enormous gratitude that he is in the military at this point in time when he can get a full gender transition. Because he wants to pretend he’s a woman, he gets free hormone therapy, mental health care, surgeries, even lip injections, Botox, and laser hair removal.

In 1977, I was rejected by the military because I needed allergy shots twice a month.

TEXAS: An autopsy has confirmed that 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray was brutally raped for two hours before being murdered, allegedly by two Venezuelan illegals. Both of the men had been caught and released at the border earlier this year. Because of Jocelyn’s young age, the two men are now eligible for the death penalty.

VAXXX: A study entitled “A Systematic Review of Autopsy Findings in Deaths after COVID-19 Vaccination” was published in Forensic Science International on June 21, 2024.

The authors found 325 published autopsy cases and one necropsy case relating to COVID-19 vaccination up to May 18, 2023. Three physicians independently reviewed each case and adjudicated whether or not COVID-19 vaccination was the direct cause or contributed significantly to death.

A total of 240 deaths (73.9%) were independently adjudicated as directly due to or significantly contributed to by COVID-19 vaccination. The mean age of death was 70.4 years. The mean time from vaccination to death was 14.3 days. Most deaths occurred within a week from last vaccine administration.

The primary causes of death included sudden cardiac death (35%), pulmonary embolism (12.5%), myocardial infarction (12%), VITT (7.9%), myocarditis (7.1%), multisystem inflammatory syndrome (4.6%), and cerebral hemorrhage (3.8%).

2024: A poll taken before the debate showed deep blue New Jersey at 41% for Trump vs. 40% for Biden. The last time New Jersey went red was in 1988.

Pre- and post-debate CBS/YouGov polls showed a sharp drop in support for Dementia Joe.

  • Does Biden have the mental health to be president?” YES: 35% pre-vs. 27% post-.
  • Should he be running for re-election?” YES: 37% pre- vs. 28% post-.

An appalled CNN talking head said, “I have never seen numbers this bad for an incumbent president during my lifetime.”

CALIFORNICATION: CLICK https://x.com/watchTENETnow/status/1807535674259800398 [3:16] to hear a totally nude bystander angrily defend his right to be au naturel at the parade. And, no, how dare anyone suggest that he was deliberately drawing attention to himself whenever kids came by.

CLICK https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/1807562788564316628 [:46] to hear cops confirm that full nudity is permitted in public provided it’s “not for sexual gratification.” According to their definition, the parade’s “Fetish Zone” was illegal. In that area, people could watch and/or participate in … people peeing on other people … people getting their bare bottoms spanked … people getting a blow job … all in broad daylight on a public street. CLICK https://x.com/itsNTBmedia/status/1807782792320692731 [1:07] to hear that cops are ignoring all illegal acts at this “private” event … that was happening on public streets.

CLICK https://x.com/ConceptualJames/status/1807861987331739684 [:40] to hear a SF local news station proudly declare that the Pride movement has always been about transitioning kids.

CHEVRON DEFERENCE: Last week, the Supremes voted 6–3 to overturn the forty-year-old judicial doctrine known as the Chevron deference. Critics of this say it is responsible for the explosive growth of the U.S. government in recent decades. The new decision will make it more difficult for unelected government officials to generate new regulations.

CORPORATE MEDIA: The undeclared PR arm of the Democratic Party is ripe with gaslight. CLICK https://x.com/0rf/status/1807620571934478683 [6:23] to hear how they pimp the Factoid of the Day: “Biden is sharp as a tack.” When watching these montages, I always wonder who exactly comes up with these talking points; it has to be an organized effort to produce such consistent results. I also wonder how they are disseminated to the various media talking heads.

DEMS PANIC: After the debate, the unabashedly left-wing TIME wrote, “even Biden’s closest allies privately admitted it was a disaster. Biden appeared every bit the 81-year-old grandfather that he is, stammering with a thin voice through unintelligible arguments and often staring blankly, mouth agape, as Trump lobbed one verbal attack after another. Biden froze up repeatedly and fumbled even some set-piece lines he had prepared in advance for the moment.”

The also unabashedly left-wing New York Times editorial board wrote, “To Serve His Country, President Biden Should Leave The Race. … There are Democratic leaders better equipped to present clear, compelling and energetic alternatives to a second Trump presidency. There is no reason for the party to risk the stability and security of the country by forcing voters to choose between Mr. Trump’s deficiencies and those of Mr. Biden. It’s too big a bet to simply hope Americans will overlook or discount Mr. Biden’s age and infirmity that they see with their own eyes.

CLICK https://rumble.com/v54dmmp-trump-just-released-his-first-post-debate-ad-and-its-utterly-brutal.html [1:34] to see the brutal new ad from the Trump campaign.

ELDER ABUSE: What a horrible woman. – CLICK https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1806737770070626640 [:19] to see her crow about how fantabulous Joe is … as he stands beside her with a vacant look on his face. His meds did kick in eventually though, just in time for him to laugh at the prospect of jailing Trump. CLICK https://x.com/CortesSteve/status/1806742905039818883 [:13].

Meanwhile, the New York Times reports that “President Biden’s family is urging him to stay in the race and keep fighting despite last week’s disastrous debate performance.” Well, they don’t want their gravy train to dry up, now do they?

Peter Heck wrote a scathing condemnation of Joe’s wife @ https://notthebee.com/takes/no-one-should-ever-look-at-jill-biden-the-same-way-again. I say “ditto” to all the leeches who have been living high off Joe’s corrupt career.

J6: Last week, the Supremes voted 6/3 in favor of Joseph Fischer, a former police officer, who was charged under an accounting law that holds a 20 year potential jail sentence. Fischer briefly entered the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The majority agreed that Mr. Fischer shouldn’t have been charged with breaking a law meant to curbing wrongdoing on Wall Street.

JUDICIAL ACTIVISM: Montana passed a law defining what “male”and “female”mean. Judge Vannatta, a Democrat-appointed federal judge in Montana, ruled it to be “unconstitutional.

MSDNC: https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/1807835692375986393 [3:44] to hear MSNBC “news” anchor, Joy(less) Reid, spew the far left’s considered opinions on the 2024 election. She and the network actually bill themselves as non-partisan and objective purveyors of the news. ::smh::

TENNESSEE: Governor Bill Lee has signed a bill calling for 30 days of prayer and fasting beginning July 1. Tennessee House Joint Resolution 0803 asks the people of the state “to seek God’s hand of mercy healing on Tennessee.

TENT CITIES: Last week, the Supremes voted 6-3 in favor of a local ordinance banning public camping. Leftists claim the ban constitutes “cruel and unusual punishment.” The majority disagreed, warning against expanding the definition of that phrase beyond the original intention and also noting that citizens must be allowed to experiment with solutions to homelessness, not have one solution (e.g., tent cities) imposed by the federal government.

TRUMP: We got another win this morning when the Supremes ruled 6–3 that presidents enjoy immunity from criminal prosecution for official, but not for unofficial, acts. This decision is expected to delay former President Donald Trump’s trial in the federal election case in Washington.

The Supreme Court held that: “Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts.

UVALDE, TEXAS: On May 24, 2022, an 18-year-old Uvalde resident shot and severely wounded his grandmother, then moved to Robb Elementary School where he killed 19 students and two teachers, while injuring 17 others.

Due to the total inaction by local police, the shooter had more than more than 1 hour and 14 minutes onsite before a United States Border Patrol Tactical Unit bypassed the incident commander, on Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Department (UCISD PD) Chief Pedro Arredondo, and breached the scene, ending the shooter’s life.

Arredondo has been charged with 10 counts of abandoning and endangering a child. Another officer, Adrian Gonzales, has been charged with 29 counts. Both of officers face up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine if they are convicted.

Separate investigations are being conducted by the Texas Ranger Division and the United States Department of Justice. One hopes more indictments will come as there were numerous instances of local and state police getting into violent conflicts with parents to prevent them from entering to rescue their children. Three people were injured during these conflicts.

GRAMMY NOTES: Sorry for how long this is … a lot happened while I was reveling with my lovies at literally the Best Birthday Party I ever had in my entire life! As soon as I post all this, I’m going to take (another) nap. I’m exhausted! LOL

2024: Non-citizens are getting voter registration forms all over the US through welfare agencies without showing proof of citizenship. In every state with the exception of Arizona, applicants for welfare benefits or driver’s licenses can receive voter registration forms without needing proof of citizenship.

CALIFORNICATION: After a San Francisco convenience market was robbed and vandalized for the FOURTH time, the first thing the city did was serve the owners with a violation notice telling him he has 90 days to fix the damage. The owner of the uninsurable establishment says he is not making a profit, but is not quite ready to throw in the towel.

Despite their best efforts, Biden still showed himself to be incompetent.

CATHOLIC NEWS ROUND UP: [8:07] – Stories covered include the Vatican charges Archbishop Vigano with schism; the Vatican defends sexual predator ex-priest’s art; Kansas sues Pfizer for vaxxx lies; Canadian school board refuses order to fly gay flag in June; Canada’s poverty rate has doubled; Chase bank admits it debanked conservative groups.

GERMANY: Back in 2020, nine men were convicted of gang raping a 15-year-old girl in a Hamburg park. All of them had left sperm behind; more than half were foreigners. None expressed any remorse. Only one of them served any time (2 years and nine months in youth custody), while the rest received suspended sentences of one to two years.

After the identity and phone number of one of the rapists was released online, a 20-year-old woman from Hamburg messaged the man, calling him a “dishonorable rapist pig” and a “disgusting miscarriage,” adding, Aren’t you ashamed when you look in the mirror?” For this supposed “crime” of “sending insulting messages”, she has been sentenced to a weekend in prison … which is more time than eight of the nine convicted child rapists served.

BORDER: Project Veritas has a new undercover video in which an official from the U.S. State Department’s Consular office admits we are letting criminals into the country daily.

So all the good, honest, hardworking Mexicans stay in Mexico, and all the pieces of garbage come to the United States… And the Mexican government has no reason to stop it because they’re garbage, goes to another country, and sends money back to them.

When asked about the ultimate goal behind such policies, the official said, “They want to change the demographics of the United States… Traditional standard Americans are not leftists. Latin Americans are all leftists.”

Reminder: Project Veritas was founded by James O’Keefe, but they booted him out. His new organization is called O’Keefe Media Group or OMG.

CATHOLIC: Fr. Chris Alar was leading a Eucharistic procession in Saskatoon, Canada, when two young men stopped him. Shouting vulgarities, they threatened him. One of them grabbed at the Monstrance, but his hand was thrown off and appeared to be burned.

He gripped his hands in pain. We all saw it. The man then stepped back and the two of them got out of the way. God once in a while gives a sign, and man, did He give a sign! I left Canada with a renewed wonder for the truth of the Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.

DEEP STATE: Internal documents from Biden’s DHS under Brennan and Clapper showed “most of the domestic terrorism threat now comes from supporters of the former president”, particularly those who are “in the military” or are “religious.

CALIFORNICATION: A family-owned Arby’s Roast Beef that has been a fixture on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood for 55 years closed its doors on Sunday. The $20/hour state minimum wage law was the final “nail in the coffin.”

CATHOLIC: The old Ark of the Covenant carried the temporary bread from heaven (manna), the old law (the stones with the ten commandments), and the symbol of God’s chosen leader (Aaron’s staff). Mary is the new Ark of the Covenant because she carried in her womb the true Bread of Life, the completed law, and God’s actual chosen leader.

After killing the parents, Bailey fired a shot into her brother’s bedroom door. The boy had locked himself inside and was not injured. Bailey said the brother was not her main target, but “she would not have been sad had the gunshot killed him.”

CATHOLIC: [9:24] – “Despite popular myth, the Church did not burn heretics. It was the secular authorities that held heresy to be a capital offense. The simple fact is that the medieval Inquisition saved uncounted thousands of innocent (and even not-so-innocent) people who would otherwise have been roasted by secular lords or mob rule.

HATE CRIMES: I have a fundamental problem with the very concept of “hate” being criminalized. We have laws about bad behavior; adding laws about bad thoughts is dangerous to our constitutional freedoms.

There is a case in Colorado that has had an appalling outcome that just adds fuel to my concerns. Anderson Lee Aldrich pleaded guilty to opening fire at a nightclub in 2022, killing 5 and injuring 19. He has been sentenced to 55 concurrent life sentences,plus 2,000 years.Why so harsh? The nightclub served the alphabet community, so, of course, it must have been a “hate crime.” Never mind that Aldrich never said why he he did it.

In 2021, Darrell Brooks drove his SUV through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing six and injuring 61. Those killed included four members of the “Dancing Grannies” group, one man, and an 8-year-old boy. Brooks was convicted of six counts of first-degree intentional homicide, six counts of hit-and-run causing death, and 61 counts of recklessly endangering safety. He was sentenced to six life sentences, plus 765½ years. Like Aldrich, Brooks never said why he did it.

When did our justice system become so perverted that the lives of five homosexuals getting drunk and hooking up at a night club could be deemed more than ten times as valuable as the lives of six grandmothers and children attending a Christmas parade?

LOUISIANA: As of two days ago, Louisiana schools that receive state funds must display the Ten Commandments “in each building it uses and classroom in each school under its jurisdiction.” The bill specifies that the text must be presented at the main focal point of a poster or framed document measuring at least 11 inches by 14 inches and printed in a “large and easily readable font.” It also requires a 200-word “context statement” explaining that the Ten Commandments were “a prominent part of American public education for almost three centuries.”

TRANS: Gender dysphoria is a mental disorder. So are phobias. We are not the ones who are ignorant about science here. A massive, years-long study entitled “Gender identity disorders among young people in Germany: prevalence and trends, 2013–2022. An analysis of nationwide routine insurance data” was recently published in Aerzteblatt (German: Doctor’s Sheet).
