AMAZON: Amazon “does not allow products that promote, incite or glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual or religious intolerance or promote organizations with such views.”

This apparently does not include two Halloween costumes that Amazon is allowing FunWorld to sell that are extremely disrespectful to the Catholic faithful. And it’s not like they haven’t been hearing feedback from the faithful. But rather than remove those two costumes, Amazon has banned comments on them from anyone who hasn’t purchased them.

If you’d like to join me in protesting, go to https://americaneedsfatima.org/petitions/bigoted-anti-catholic-costumes-e22639 and sign the petition. The first two links go to the costumes.

BIG PHARMA: Fluoroquinolones are among the most prescribed class of antibiotics, ranking No. 4 in the highest number of prescriptions written per 1,000 people. Yet they have long been associated with Achilles tendonitis and rupture, kidney stones, psychotic episodes (some leading to suicide), and now new data shows they can cause fatal aortic ruptures.

Keep in mind that antibiotics damage your gut microbiome, which accounts for nearly 80% of your immune system function, and contribute to the breeding of resistant bacteria. They should be used as little as possible and then followed by a robust course of probiotics to restore the gut.

DEMONS: Exorcist Father Ripperger explains what they are (fallen angels) and why God allows them to influence our lives (so we grow in holiness) [4:03].

EVs: Alan O’Hashi says he has used his Nissan Leaf twice to drive the 178 miles from Cheyenne, Wyoming, to Casper, Wyoming. In a gas-fuelled vehicle, the trip takes around 3 hours. In the EV, it took 15 hours one time and 11 the other time. IMO, the Left’s push to EV has nothing to do with the planet and everything to do with their plan to institute global feudalism. In Medieval times, serfs weren’t allowed to travel … or to own weapons for that matter.

FETTERMAN: Folks are saying that John Fetterman’s wife and handler is the real candidate. The family photo above certainly seems to suggest that is true. And it’s not something I scrounged off the ‘net to make him look bad. It’s THE family photo featured on Page One of his campaign website!

The follow up from Biden’s visit also seems to confirm this idea. John Fetterman didn’t speak at the Biden event at all and his wife dealt with the press. There is zero mention of Biden’s visit at John’s campaign website, but his wife’s Facebook page features pictures of her on Air Force 1 with FAUXTUS and of her in front of Air Force 1 and of her with various Biden aides.

The Hill published a photo of John, wife, and FAUXTUS, with a headline, “Biden says Oz is for ‘undoing everything we have done’.” Hmm … that sounds like a campaign ad for Dr. Oz. LOL

PENNSYLVANIA: The graphic shows a paragraph from The Scrantonian newspaper, January 2, 1937. When Lyin’ Joe says “not joking”, you can pretty much bet the house that he’s lying. While campaigning for John Fetterman, Biden repeated the claim that his grandfather had been an “All-American” at Santa Clara University.

VAXXX: A funeral director from New Zealand says that 95% of the corpses he has handled since the vaxxx roll out have died within two weeks of getting the jab.

VOLKSWAGON: Climate loonies have taken to gluing themselves to walls and floors to protest the use of fossil fuels. Usually, folks just peel them off and arrest them. But Volkswagon has taken a novel (and frankly hysterical) approach. They’ve turned off the heat, turned out the lights, locked the doors, and left them there.

When they demanded bowls for their body waste, VW said nope. And periodically security guards come by to check on them with their bright flashlights. One of them has been removed to a hospital for treatment after his glued hand swelled up.

Nobody was allowed in, so they couldn’t order carry-out. They complained about the food and drink VW provided, despite the fact that they also claimed to be on a hunger strike. After 42 hours of “peaceful protest” (translation: cluttering up the showroom so the company can’t do business), VW sent in police. The comments on the Twitter thread are excellent. Here are just a few:

“One would think that people who call themselves scientists would have foreseen the need for a container for waste when gluing oneself to the floor, but yet here we are.”

“This is the equivalent of a child holding their breath.”

“You wanted decarbonization, and they obliged by turning off the heat.”

“I’d like to see the dealer have some workmen arrive on the morning and construct an 8 foot screen around them before opening, and then proceed with business as usual.”

ABORTION: An abortion clinic in Bournemouth, England, has been granted a huge “buffer zone” that will be in effect for at least the next three years. Forbidden activities in the ENTIRE SHADED REGION include carrying any signage related to abortion, offering counseling of any kind regarding abortion or abortion alternatives, as well as praying, reciting scripture, genuflecting, sprinkling holy water, and making the sign of the cross.

DEPOPULATION: It seems there’s no question any more whether the ‘rona jab is achieving the primary goal set for it by Bill Gates and the whole “Save the Planet from the Humans” cabal.

CLICK https://twitter.com/_Janey_J/status/1581591963098181637 [:30] to hear a Florida OB/GYN say that, since the vaxxx roll-out, her practice has seen ENORMOUS increases in infertility, miscarriages, abnormal pap smears and cervical cancers. In California, the live birth rate is 6.4% lower than pre-vaxxx levels. In North Dakota, it’s 10 to 13% lower.

In Israel, miscarriages and still birth rates among vaxxxed women are nearly 34% higher than unvaxxed women. Live birth rates have dropped 10% (UK) and Germany (12%). In Hungary, the most vaxxxed counties are showing a 15.2% drop vs. the least vaxxxed counties which are at -4.6%.

In Taiwan, which has an 80% vaxxx rate, live birth are down by 27.66%. In Sweden, nine months after they started vaxxxing 18-49-year-olds, the birth rate took a nose dive. And Sweden proves lockdowns aren’t the cause, because Sweden never did it.

In Europe, excess deaths in children has jumped 691% over pre-vaxxx levels.

Last Friday, a 17-year-old male collapsed while singing at the All-State Honors Show Choir in Illinois. He was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. Officials are investigating.

On Wednesday, an 18-year-old offensive lineman at Mississippi State University died unexpectedly. The Sheriff’s and Coroner’s Offices are investigating.

ECONOMY: Democrats can’t stop lying … I mean, talking … about abortion. But since voters are primarily interested in the economy, Stacey Abrams has the ideal talking point. Fight inflation with more abortions!

“Having children is why you’re worried about your price for gas. It’s why you’re concerned about how much food costs. For women this is not a reductive issue. You can’t divorce being forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy from the economic realities of having a child.”

Another liar with a D by her name tweeted this fear porn: “When your wife is dying from sepsis because doctors aren’t allowed to treat her partial miscarriage, the last thing on your mind will be the price of milk.” Never mind that a D&C for a miscarriage is legal in every state.

FLORIDA: Gov. DeSantis is actually doing something about illegal voting. CLICK https://twitter.com/GovRonDeSantis/status/1560371143118315521 [1:32]. Felons who have been convicted of murder or sexual assault are not allowed to vote in Florida. Democrats have been telling them they can. Now they’re flabbergasted because they’re being arrested.

State law says that a voter has to “willfully” commit the crime. Many if not all of these people have and will continue to get off, because they were told by Democrat operatives that the law had been changed. But these arrests are still worth while. In one of these arrest videos, the cop said, “I’ve never seen this charge before in my life.” Yeah, exactly. And that’s exactly the problem. Democrats have known they could cheat BECAUSE NOBODY WAS CHECKING.

IGOR DANCHENKO: John Durham’s apparently endless investigation into the “Russia! Russia! Russia!” dossier the Dems cooked up, paid for, and released shortly before Americans went to the polls in 2016 has produced two trials. Both of them have ended in acquittals. Danchenko has bragged that he was the primary source for the fake dossier. So … Trump got spied on and impeached, twice, and his friends went to prison.

“Conservative panelist” = guy who once voted for Ronald Reagan, possibly by mistake

“Super-spreader event” = gatherings of people we don’t like

“The end of democracy” = something Trump said

“Settled science” = a non-reviewed study by a possibly fictitious organization that just came out this morning

“Widespread outrage“ = 3 people on Twitter got mad and so did we

“Racist statements“ = literally means nothing

“Republicans pounce“ = uh oh… a Democrat got caught

“Mostly peaceful” = it was hyper-violent but we agreed with it

“Racist dog whistle“ = a super-secret whistle that only racists can hear and only we heard it

TRUMP: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/president.trump.45/videos/838860913801968 [3:50] to see his new ad.

Pride is the Queen of Sins. Her Generals are the Seven Deadly Sins (or Vices). A mnemonic for the Seven Deadly Sins is VALEGAS.

Each of the Seven Deadly Sins has soldiers that are known as Daughters, which are ways in which the root sin manifests itself in an individual’s life.

Each Vice also has a Virtue that conquers it.

Vainglory is an immoderate desire for renown, prestige, or the praise and respect of others. It is also seeking these things in the wrong objects, from the wrong people, or in a wrong manner.

The Daughters of Vainglory are Disobedience, Boasting, Hypocrisy, Contentiousness, Stubbornness, and Inordinate Love of Novelty (quirkiness, eccentricity).

The Virtue that conquers Vainglory is Magnanimity, which means “greatness of soul” – desiring great or good things in part because they are great or good, but primarily for the glory of God.

Anger as a vice is a passion that seeks vengeance, is unregulated by reason, and/or is disproportionate to the cause is evil. But there is a similar, but praiseworthy passion that is better known as zeal, which seeks justice, is regulated by reason, and/or is proportionate to the cause.

The Daughters of Anger are Quarreling, Indignation, Blasphemy, Clamor (throwing tantrums), Contumely (verbal and/or physical abuse), and Swelling of the Mind (getting so worked up that you can’t think straight).

The Virtue that conquers Anger is Patience (in moderation). St. Thomas Aquinas said it is a sin to not get angry over things one should. He called it “unreasonable patience.” A failure to correct the wicked encourages them to persist in their evil deeds, since there are no reprimands for their wrong actions. It also causes confusion in the community over what is truly right and wrong, and thus may lead even good people to do evil.

Lust is a disordered craving for sexual pleasure. Human sexuality is a gift from God, but it can easily get out of hand. Whether a person is single and/or celibate, or married, lust may creep in, drawing us in on ourselves where it becomes harder to truly love. One of the great temptations of our day with regard to lust is pornography, which not only greatly disrespects human persons, but also is literally addictive.

The Daughters of Lust are Blindness of Mind, Thoughtlessness, Inconstancy, Impulsiveness, Self-Love, Hatred of God, Love of This World, and Abhorrence or Despair of a Future World.

The Virtue that conquers Lust is Chastity. Proper use of our sexuality frees us to love God and others purely. Where the expression of Lust is immoral (i.e., auto-erotic, homosexual, extra-marital, or pornographic), then total abstinence is called for. Where it is moral (within marriage), but disordered (self- rather than other-centered), then periods of abstinence will help bring about balance. This is one of the great treasures of Natural Family Planning that I sincerely wish the Catholic Church would actually promote. NFP has built-in periods of abstinence alternated with monthly honeymoons. It really blesses the marriages where it is practiced.

Envy is a sadness or sorrow for the goods and blessings given to others, insofar as their gifts differ from or surpass our own. It is often mistakenly equated with jealousy, but it is actually quite different. If I am jealous of a good that you have, then I want to possess it for myself. But if I am envious of a good that you have, then I want to minimize or destroy it in you.

Envy isn’t always obvious. Gossip, for example, is an expression of envy, because it seeks to diminish others and their accomplishments. So is failing to praise accomplishments or to encourage others in their endeavors. Perhaps the sneakiest form of envy is when it masquerades as kindness (e.g., praising non-accomplishments, participation trophies) or fairness (e.g., refusing to reward excellence, “equity”).

The Daughters of Envy are Gossip, Detraction, Schadenfreude (i.e., feeling happy when others experience misfortune), and Hatred. The Virtue that conquers Envy is Fraternal Charity, which means to be grateful for the gifts and talents of others and to desire that each and every person reach his or her full potential.

Gluttony is the disordered consumption of the world’s goods. It may be eating or drinking to excess, but it can also be doing too much of something we enjoy (e.g., surfing the ‘net, playing video games). A sneaky form of gluttony is the desire to have things exactly our way – such as food that is prepared just right or in just the right amount. People who are exceedingly picky are always finding something to complain about, because they refuse to suffer even the most minor inconvenience.

The Daughters of Gluttony are Unseemly Joy, Scurrility (vulgarity), Uncleanness, Loquaciousness, and Dullness of Mind (lack of understanding).

The Virtue that conquers Gluttony is Temperance (desiring material pleasures to an ordered degree). If we’re doing too much of something, we can practice Temperance by abstaining from that thing for a period of time. And if we are too picky, we can resolve to accept what is given as it is given and with gratitude.

Avarice is an inordinate desire for wealth. Also known as cupidity, greed, and covetousness, it is a corruption of the natural instinct of possession. The object of avarice is not limited to money.

The Daughters of Avarice are Treachery, Fraud, Falsehood, Perjury, Restlessness, Violence, and Insensibility to Mercy.

The Virtue that conquers Avarice is Generosity. Be generous, give without looking to get something in return, without delay or restrictions. Remember that nothing you own, be it money or things, originated with you; nor is any of it destined to stay with you into eternity.

Sloth is usually equated with inactivity or laziness. But it is really about resisting the demands of God’s love, for Him, for ourselves, and for others. Slothful people may avoid fully engaging in relationships of love and sacrifice by doing as little as possible, but they may do it by staying so busy that they never have time.

The Daughters of Sloth are Malice, Spite, Faint-Heartedness (timidity), Despair (melancholy), Sluggishness (particularly in regard to the Ten Commandments), Wandering of the Mind (after unlawful things).

The Virtue that conquers Sloth is Diligence. St. Thérèse of Lisieux believed in doing small thing with great love. For St. Teresa of Calcutta, it manifested in years of humble and tireless service to the poorest of the poor.

COVID-ARMAGEDDON: A team of idiots, I mean researchers, at Boston University succeeded in grafted the highly infectious Omicron spike on to the original, highly lethal Wuhan strain of COVID-19. The result killed 80% of the mice it infected.

Sen. Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kan.), said that the research entailed “lethal gain of function virus research” that creates the “potential to kill more people than any singular nuclear weapon. … Viruses have managed to escape even the most secure labs. … [Such] research must stop immediately while the risks and benefits can be investigated.”

Boston University issued a lengthy statement defending its research and claiming it not only was not “gain-of-function” research, but that it had made the virus “less dangerous.” They also said the new virus couldn’t escape, because “We take our safety and security of how we handle pathogens seriously.”

Hmm. Methinks Boston U. has taken its talking points straight out of the Fauci-Wuhan play book.

GEORGIA: Bonchie at Red State wrote about Herschel Walker’s surprising performance in last Friday’s debate with Sen. Warnock, “The common theme with Walker’s approach tonight was aggression. He did not show up to play defense, and I think that played to his advantage. Instead of sitting back and waiting for the moderator and Warnock to hit him on his scandals, he kept pressing Democrat policy failures at every turn. It completely shifted the debate in Walker’s favor, again, something almost no one thought was possible.” Brief highlights @ https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1581073359131082753 [:51], https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1581061307813761024 [:12], and https://twitter.com/TPostMillennial/status/1581065163763249152 [:46].

In popular culture, the word “dogmatic” is loaded with negative connotations, but in the Catholic Church, a “dogma” has a very precise definition that is at once both profound and beautiful.

In Catholic teaching, there is an order or hierarchy of truths. In this order, “dogma” is the highest. Years ago, one of my pastors told me the lowest one is something like, “Some theologians think that such and such might maybe be true.”

When the Catholic Church defines a truth as “dogma”, it proclaims that the stated Truth is a matter of Divine Revelation. Catholic dogmas are the most serious and solemn of all teachings, ones which Catholics are obliged to believe. They may not be specifically stated within Sacred Scripture – e.g., the word “Trinity” does not appear in the Bible – but they can never contradict Sacred Scripture.

The Roman Catholic Church has four dogmas about Jesus’ Ema (i.e., Mama). One, she is the true Mother of God. Two, she was a virgin throughout her life. Three, she was spared the stain of Original Sin. Four, she was assumed, body and soul, into Heaven.

Mother of God: The first Marian dogma is often referred to by its Greek name, Theotokos (i.e., God-bearer). The point of this dogma is to clarify that Mary wasn’t a surrogate birth mother who raised Jesus as His foster or adoptive mom. She was his true mother in the flesh. To me, it means that when Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, He used one of Mary’s eggs.

This dogma was defined in 431 at the Third Ecumenical Council at Ephesus to clarify for the faithful that Jesus was both fully human and fully Divine. The council was called, because Nestorius, Patriarch (i.e, Archbishop) of Constantinople (now Istanbul) was teaching that Mary was merely the Christotokos (i.e., Christ-bearer), that Jesus had had divine powers and a unique relationship with God the Father, but that He had not Himself been divine.

However, if that were true, then His death on the cross could not have paid the infinite and eternal debt of sin for all mankind.

Ever-Virgin: The second Marian dogma is that Mary was a virgin throughout her entire life. That she was a virgin when she conceived by the Holy Spirit is an essential sign that Mary’s son Jesus was indeed the Messiah. It is also confirmed in the Gospel of Luke. That she remained a virgin is suggested by Ezekiel.

“Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel.” – Isaiah 7:14

“The angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin…and the virgin’s name was Mary.” – Luke 1:26-27

“Then he brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary facing east, but it was closed. The Lord said to me: This gate must remain closed; it must not be opened, and no one should come through it. Because the Lord, the God of Israel, came through it, it must remain closed. Only the prince may sit in it to eat a meal in the presence of the Lord; he must enter through the vestibule of the gate and leave the same way.” – Ezekiel 44:1-3 [NABRE]

The quibbles many Protestants raise are based on faulty understandings of Scripture. For further reading, see https://www.oram.us/biblical-evidence-that-mary-didnt-have-marital-relations-with-joseph/.

Immaculate Conception: The third Marian dogma is that she was spared the stain of Original Sin through the miraculous intervention of God in granting to her, preemptively, the graces of Baptism that Jesus won for us on the cross.

God is holiness itself, and cannot coexist with sinfulness; it is thus a logical imperative that Mary had to be completely free from sin. Jesus was conceived using one of her eggs, eggs that formed while she herself was in her own mother’s womb. He was physically nurtured by her blood as He grew inside her womb and then by her milk after He was born. Then, He was emotionally, mentally, and spiritually nurtured by her as He grew.

Just as the Theotokos affirmed that Jesus was fully human, so the Immaculate Conception affirms that Jesus was fully Divine. The Catholic Church is not deifying Mary with these dogmas, but rather clarifying the true nature of Her Son.

Assumption of Mary: The fourth Marian dogma is that she received her glorified body and was taken, body and soul, into Heaven. This tradition dates back to the earliest Christians, though it was not declared an infallible dogma until 1950 by Pope Venerable Pius XII.

There is no teaching about whether or not she died, only that God did not permit her body to suffer decay. In the East, the Feast of the Assumption is called the Feast of the “Dormition”, which can mean either sleep or death. At Medjugorje, one of the seers asked Mary if she died and she said she had not.

In the Middle East, the roofs of houses are walled and used as outdoor living spaces. When it’s hot, the family sleeps up there where it’s cooler. I often think that sometime after Mary went to live with John, they and their household were asleep on their roof when Mary was “changed in a twinkling” (1 Corinthians 15:51-53). Maybe there was even a trumpet that woke the others up, so they saw her glorified and taken up. But they would not have known if she died in her sleep or not.

Personally, I think that just as the Resurrection is our model for what will happen to believers in the end who have died, the Assumption is our model for what will happen in the end to believers who have not died.

BORDER: [8:38] – FAUXTUS reinstates “Stay in Mexico” but only for people from Venezuela. Liberal Hivemind has an interesting take.

FAUXTUS: MUST WATCH https://www.facebook.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/videos/1601932616889098 [3:07]. It’s brilliant, but IMO not at all funny. This man has his finger on the nuclear button.

After winning the 2020 special U.S. senatorial election over Kelly Loeffler, Democrat Raphael Warnock’s 2021 income jumped to half a million buckaroos. Despite the fact that he would now be in D.C. much of the time and also receiving his new $164,816 U.S. Senate salary, his church inexplicably decided that he should continue to receive his full pastoral salary ($120,000) and housing allowance ($7,417). He also used his new-found fame to earn $5,750 in speaking fees and get an advance of $243,750 for his memoir, A Way Out of No Way.

In November, Warnock has to defend his barely-warm senate seat against Republican challenger and former NFL star Herschel Walker. Real Clear Politics currently shows Warnock up by 3.3 points. But that may change if the following story gains traction.

It seems the church owns an apartment building that is supposedly a non-profit charity to help provide low cost housing for the down-and-out. The church, which overall possesses liquid assets of more than $1.2 million and pays a part-time pastor an exorbitant salary, also received $5 million more from Georgia taxpayers in August to conduct repairs to the apartment building.

The National Legal and Policy Center has demanded that Warnock and his church explain “why they are hiding their ownership in the apartment building and to account for the rents received. It’s despicable that in the name of MLK, they are evicting tenants for past due rents of trifling amounts.” One tenant was reportedly evicted for non-payment of a whopping $28.55 in overdue rent.

GRAMMY NOTES: Bunny’s Language Arts curriculum incorporates a lot of fine art (yay!!). One of her assignments recently was to write four lines or longer with a rhyming scheme and inspired by the painting Peacock and Peacock Butterfly by Archibald Thorburn. She wrote,

At Fatima, Our Blessed Mother promised that those who practiced the First Saturday Devotion for five consecutive months would be assisted by her in the hour of their death with all the graces necessary for salvation.

On the first Saturday of the month, for five consecutive months, participants do the following:

1. Receive Holy Communion with the intention of making reparation for the insults, sacrileges, and indifferences committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
2. Go to Confession on the First Saturday of the month (it can also be eight days before or after) with the intention of making reparation for the insults, sacrileges, and indifferences committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
3. Recite five decades of the Rosary in reparation for the insults, sacrileges, and indifferences committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
4. Keep Mary company for fifteen minutes—meditating on the Mysteries of the Rosary with her—with the intention of making reparation for the insults, sacrileges, and indifferences committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

BRAIN CELLS: [:59] – The world is getting increasingly more like That Hideous Strength by C.S. Lewis. Speaking of books and this screwed up world … I’ve been reading Jonathan Cahn’s latest, Return of the Gods. I should probably say “skimming” since so much of it is (depressingly) familiar. There is some very interesting information in there I didn’t know that connects a lot of dots, so I definitely recommend it.

His big theme is that way back when, Christianity booted the pagan gods (i.e., demons) out of their national strongholds, but now they’re back seven-fold. “When an unclean spirit goes out of a person it roams through arid regions searching for rest but finds none.  Then it says, ‘I will return to my home from which I came.’ But upon returning, it finds it empty, swept clean, and put in order. Then it goes and brings back with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they move in and dwell there; and the last condition of that person is worse than the first. Thus it will be with this evil generation.” – Matthew 12:43-45

BANKING: JP Morgan Chase and Co. abruptly cut ties with a long-time customer and faith-based nonprofit National Committee for Religious Freedom (NCRF). The bank gave no reason, but did offer to allow NCRF to reopen the account provided they turn over their donor list, name the political candidates they support, and give a full explanation of the criteria by which they choose such candidates.

The current chairman of NCRF is Sam Brownback who represented Kansas in Congress from 1995–96 (House) and 1996–2011 (Senate). From 2011-2018, he served as the governor of Kansas, then was appointed the United States Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom by President Trump, where he served from 2018 to 2021.

Brownback noted that he has lately communicated with dozens of groups with similar aims as the NCRF and “way too many … have been canceled by their providers.” His organization plans to appeal to state attorneys general to get involved.

DEPOPULATION: One of the stated objectives of the people who have been pushing the ‘rona jab is to reduce the global population to what they consider to be sustainable levels. It appears the jab is doing the job for them. In the UK, live births have dropped by 15% over pre-pandemic levels, while stillbirths have increased by 10%. Meanwhile, excess mortality in the UK is up by 10-15%. It is 94% likely that these outcomes are due to the ‘rona vaxxx, while only 0.5% likely they are due to random chance. N.b., because of their nationalized health care system, the UK data is unusually complete and compelling. It is also being verified by other countries.

HUMAN CHALLENGE: UK researchers did a human challenge experiment on 34 healthy young (18-30 yo) adults who were deliberately inoculated intranasally with the ‘rona, then kept in a high containment environment with careful medical supervision. Nineteen became infected; 16 suffered mild symptoms, while the other three had no symptoms. The immune systems of the remaining 15 subjects successfully killed off the virus before it could take hold, so they never had positive tests. Sadly, I didn’t see a word about the basic blood panels (e.g., vitamin D and zinc levels) which could have illuminated why those 15 had more robust immune systems than the other 19.

VAXXX: Israeli health data shows that ‘rona patients who had recovered from the virus were forty times less likely to become infected again then those who had been jabbed.

And a new study funded by Moderna has found that Moderna’s COVID shots increase the likelihood of infection over time. This finding has been reported by other studies, including one recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

GRAMMY NOTES: The Mascots are doing a wonderful unit on safety.

ARIZONA: [5:15] – I wish I could vote for her.

BORDER: [3:23] – Armed illegals swarming across the border … but we can’t call it an invasion?

COVID-19: [3:13] – I’m thinking those thugs in cop uniforms were a whole lot too enthusiastic about their brutality to be claiming now that they didn’t like doing any of it.

END TIMES: PayPal tried to slime the right to fine people $2,500 at its own discretion for publishing “misinformation” (and we’ve seen how the Left defines that). They say they took it out, but I’ve seen at least one commentator suggest the possibility is still buried in their TOS.

And it won’t stop there. In 2013, the government of Cyprus sucked billions of euros out of private bank accounts with no warning. In 2015, Greece shut down all of its banks and limited daily ATM withdrawals to 60 euros (about $67).

In 2020, Wells Fargo Bank emptied the accounts of the conservative Christian Republican candidate for one of Delaware’s seats in the U.S. Senate, leaving her destitute and homeless. In January of this year, Mike “My Pillow” Lindell’s long-time bank, Minnesota Bank & Trust and Heartland Financial, closed all of his accounts.

On October 12, JPMorgan Chase Bank shut down Kanye West’s accounts and Bank of America shut down Catturd’s account. The latter tweeted that when asked why, the bank said they didn’t need a reason!

Some preppers have been investing in gold and silver. Me, I’ve been going with food, water, medical supplies, and survival gear.

ENERGY: Saudi Arabia says Biden tried to coerce them into postponing oil production cuts until after the midterm elections. They told him to take a hike. No surprise there; back when he tried to reach them by phone, nobody picked up. Some Republicans are wondering if this isn’t as impeachable an offense as that Ukrainian phone call thing.

FAUXTUS: Oct. 12, 2022 [1:05] – On October 12, 2022, he claimed his son “lost his life in Iraq.” Beau Biden deployed to Iraq from 2008 to 2009, but he died at home in 2015 from brain cancer.

INDIANA: Politico’s suckage is worse than we previously thought. It is actually illegal for the Air Force to release private personnel records like the ones Politico claims were obtained through a FOIA request. On top of which, the Air Force says they have no record of any such request. IOW, somebody with access to Green’s personnel file stole it. Hmm … I seem to remember when the Left lost its tiny little mind over the NY Post publishing details from Hunter Biden’s laptop because it had allegedly been stolen (even though it wasn’t).

ISRAEL: [9:32] – Violence erupts in Judea and Samaria as Vladimir Putin meets with Mahmoud Abbas, the President of Palestine.

POLICE STATE: This s**t is getting more real every day. On October 7, 2022, FAUXTUS issued “Executive Order on Enhancing Safeguards for United Signals Intelligence Activities.” It allows the government to spy on American citizens for broadly defined reasons including understanding “public health risks,” “political instability,” and the “threat” of climate change. There’s a bunch of blahblah in there about “reasonable assessment” and “rigorous oversight” as “safeguards”, but we’ve already seen how well any of that crap has protected Trump-supporters, Pro-Life activists, and no-vaxxxers.

THE NETHERLANDS: [8:45] – Government theft in the service of promoting the Third Horseman of the Apocalypse.

UNITED METHODISTS: On October 2, Allendale United Methodist Church in St. Petersburg, Florida, allowed a drag queen named Isaac Simmons to preach during its Sunday service and join the ministers at the altar while dressed as a demon.

His message included, “We are here to … deconstruct and to reimagine what church can be, who church can be for, and how church can feel together. … [Church] can be a place where all have equal and equitable access not just to the pulpit itself, to the sanctuary, but to God themself, and all that it represents within the community.”

Themself? It?

VFAUXTUS: [2:05] – I’m not sure why these people are laughing.
