Rembert G. Weakland (95) is dead. And good riddance.
The former Archbishop of Milwaukee publicly repudiated Catholic teaching on homosexuality, called John Paul II a “ham actor” who promulgated “heavy, almost arrogant” teachings, and condemned pro-lifers for “narrowness” and “lack of compassion.” Naturally, this made him an icon for liberal Catholics like dissident, homosexual priest, James Martin, who eulogized him as an “erudite scholar” and “gifted pastor.”
In addition to being a theological dissident, Weakland was also a practicing and predatory homosexual who enabled his fellow predatory priests to operate freely. He knowingly placed pedophile priests into parishes with no supervision, sneered at and countersued underage victims, retaliated against whistleblowers, and refused to report confessed abusers to law enforcement. He also imposed a sex-ed program on on parochial schools that included drawing pictures of genitalia and discussions about masturbation and incest.
His personal abuses and extensive cover-up efforts on behalf of his fellow predators ultimately bankrupted the archdiocese which was forced to settle for an $21 million with more than 300 victims. In 2002, it was revealed that he had paid out $450,000 in Church funds to silence a student he had raped. In 2019, current Archbishop Jerome Listecki purged Weakland’s name and image from all the church buildings in the archdiocese.
Weakland hated the traditional church and led the liturgical revolution to stomp out the reverent, Roman rite and its treasury of sacred music. Largely as a result of his efforts, the altars of most American churches were turned versus populum; choirs were disbanded; Gregorian chant was prohibited; Latin was forbidden for celebration of the Mass in many dioceses; church furniture and statuary were discarded. These innovations, which distressed untold numbers of Catholics, were thought to be the orders of the Second Vatican Council. Rather, they were the results of a conspiracy whose foundations and intentions have yet to be completely discovered and revealed.
Since the news of Weakland’s passing, liberal Catholics have fondly eulogized the late, disgraced prelate, despite his abominable record on all fronts. The Jesuit magazine America called him “a leading Catholic intellectual who pushed for social justice and increased power for women in the church.” The New York Times’ even more effusive obituary dedicated just two lines to Weakland’s failures to protect children and cited the bishop’s farcical claim that the Vatican was to blame for Milwaukee’s abuse issues.

CANADA: A Canadian veteran went to the VA for help with PTSD; they told him to request “medical assistance in dying.” Isn’t it so totes awesome that the Canadian government-run health system will off you for free?! Trudeau and his cronies are serving the Anti-Christ fershure.
CATHOLIC: Bishop DeGrood of the Diocese of Sioux Falls has published a 14-page policy document in which he explains that same-sex attraction and/or gender dysphoria do not change the biological fact of God’s creation and that it would be untruthful for the Catholic Church or our Catholic schools to pretend otherwise.
DeGrood’s policy bans “those who choose to live a transgender lifestyle publicly and declare such his/her intent in either word or action” from serving in any official capacity in Mass, and also from carrying out “employed ministry on behalf of any parish, parochial school, or diocesan ministries.”
Catholic schools are to ensure that boys and girls restrooms, locker-rooms and sports teams are for their sex only, with no “shared use of restrooms or locker rooms by any students of the opposite gender.”
Both parishes and schools are forbidden from sponsoring, chartering, or providing meeting space “for any organization that violates the definition of marriage, sex, or gender as indicated” in the diocesan policy.
DEAD PEOPLE: I wish I could still be surprised at the blatant skullduggery of Democrats. The latest one comes out of Michigan, where the Secretary of State lost her bid to keep 25,975 dead voters on Michigan’s voter rolls. Thousands of them have been dead for 20 years or more!
HUNTER: You can pre-order the DVD at the link below. [2:21] – WARNING! This motion picture contains: Sex, Prostitution, Drugs, Cronyism, Money Laundering, More Sex, a Laptop from Hell, Chinese Spies, Ukrainian “Businessmen,” the CCP, the Selling Out of America, the Big Guy, Corn Pop, More Sex, Additional Drugs, and…Family.
FBI: On Thursday, Mark Zuckerberg told Joe Rogan that the reason Facebook suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story is because the FBI told them it was Russian propaganda.
Flashback – In April, 2019, drugged out Hunter Biden abandoned his laptop at a Wilmington, Delaware repair shop. The owner, John Paul Mac Isaac, tried twice to turn it into the FBI and was told to get lost.
Eight months later, Isaac gave a copy to Rudy Giuliani who passed another copy on to the New York Post.
In mid-October 2020, shortly before election day, the Post published about the bombshell contents. The Slime Stream Media ignored it, while social media suppressed it. Whenever it came up, Democrats condemned it as Russian disinformation. Twitter even froze the Post’s account and refused to allow anyone to tweet about the story.
S’funny how the Dem’s October hoaxes get the widest possible media coverage, while a 100% genuine GOP October surprise got stomped on. In March 2022, the New York Slime admitted the laptop and its contents were genuine, something they buried in paragraph 24 of the story.
FLORIDA: Twenty-five of the school board candidates endorsed by pro-parent Gov. DeSantis won their elections on Tuesday, resulting in flipping five school districts from left to right. CLICK https://twitter.com/1776ProjectPac/status/1562630834745618434 [2:08] to hear Laura Ingraham’s report.
PPP: The White House is responding to critics of the school loan forgiveness plan by tweeting out how much Paycheck Protection Program money they didn’t have to repay.
PPP was a law passed by Congress vs. an unconstitutional Presidential decree.
PPP was for businesses to survive while the government shut them down.
MTG: [2:38] – On Wednesday and Thursday, Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted. Swatting refers to making false police reports that can trigger SWAT teams or police in general to visit someone’s home.
NEW YORK STATE: My sucky governor has issued an order to me and all 5.4 million of my fellow New York Republicans: “Just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, OK? You are not New Yorkers.”
SLAVERY: After the Civil War deprived Democrats of their option to outright own Blacks, they turned to other methods of oppressing them. The KKK, Jim Crow laws, lynching, and bombing Black churches worked until Republicans passed civil rights legislation, after which Democrats turned to welfare, abortion, and terrible schools to keep those pesky People of Color in their ghettoes. Rich Blacks serve their White Massahs faithfully, promoting all of the above, while living in mansions in predominantly White neighborhoods.
VAXXX: Now that the truth about the ‘rona poison is coming out, the Left is changing its tune. From full-throated condemnation of anyone who refuses the jab to full-throated condemnation of Orange Man Bad who “created” the deadly toxin and “pressured” the FDA to approve it.
Personally, I think the worst mistake of Trump’s presidency was his decision to trust Fauci and Birx over wiser heads on his COVID Task Force who have now been proven to have been right. However, the virus and the vaxxx were both engineered and ready to go before the pandemic; Trump was just a puppet in the Antichrist’s plan.
Trump did attempt to push the FDA to authorize the vaccines before the 2020 elections, but the FDA refused until after Election Day. Regardless, we now know, those emergency authorizations (not approvals) were based on fraudulent and inadequate trials that Pfizer and the FDA lied about. And since then, under Fauci/Biden, the FDA and CDC have gotten even sloppier, going so far as to issue authorization for and buying 171 million doses of a BA.5 booster that did not even exist and had had zero testing before being inflicted on the public.
Trump also opposed mandates, which the Biden administration imposed aggressively. So nobody can blame the massive amounts of damage done by forced jabs, forced shut-downs, and draconian masking of small children on Trump. He has, however, continued to praise himself for Operation Warpspeed, which appears to have cost more lives than it saved.
YOUTUBE: My, how things have changed. A whole lot of people got banned, suspended, and/or demonetized for saying masks don’t work or masks cause problems or ivermectin/hydroxy are effective. I am not holding my breath waiting on YT to apologize.
“On Monday, August 28 of the year of the Lord 2006, a new invocation of the Blessed Virgin Mary was revealed to Luz de María by our Lord Jesus Christ under the title of “Queen and Mother of the End Times.” A great part of the invocations to the Blessed Virgin Mary are gathered in one single image that represents her.” – + Msgr. Juan Abelardo Mata Bishop of the Diocese of Estelí
Luz de Maria quotes the Blessed Mother about the symbolism in the image:
“Upon My image rests the Holy Spirit, of whom I am Temple and Tabernacle.
“My Crown has three Crosses: the middle Cross belongs to My Son’s Cross, the one on the right to remind you of Divine Mercy and how the repentant thief attained forgiveness and won Heaven, and the one on the left for you to keep in mind the one who mocked My Son, being on a cross, and condemned himself.
“The Scapular on My Chest is a sign of the commitment that My children have so that their life be alike to Mine: in obedience and faith to the Word of God.
“My Sacred Heart illuminates the life of men and, in the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph.
“In My Womb, My Son is seen in the Holy Eucharist, unfolding His Love through yellow rays.
“On the wrists of My Hands you will notice a star, so that you remember that I am the Morning Star of the New Dawn and guide the People of My Son.
“My Hands shine with light so that My children do not go astray and see the light of the beacon of My Hands, from which rays emanate that converge with the rays of My Son, present in the Holy Eucharist and deposit themselves in blessing on the newborn child, who represents, in the first place, Our beloved Angel of Peace – fruit of the Trinitarian Will – who is presented to Humanity by the Hand of God the Father who is guarding him. Second, the child represents the Holy Remnant. That Holy Remnant that is being protected and maintained on the Earth of peace, by the Hand of God the Almighty Father.
“The Earth, at this instant, is surrounded by My Holy Rosary, just as the renewed Earth will continue to be surrounded by My Holy Rosary. And with each Our Father and every Hail Mary that you have prayed in the Rosaries and in other prayers, you have multiplied them to infinity, because prayers will always bear fruits of life and in abundance.
“The Earth is shining, and the darkness will have passed.
“My Invocation represents the Hope of a new Heaven and a new Earth.
“Amen.”
Blessed Virgin Mary, August 2018”
If you have been following my “Get yourselves prayed up, people” series, you’ll recognize instantly why I got goosebumps when I saw this information for the first time today. The feast of the Queen and Mother of the End Times is August 28, the same day as Elul 1. If you don’t know why that should be goosebumpy, read up at the links below.
REMINDER: Elul 1 begins at sundown on Saturday, August 27. In Jerusalem, the sun will set at 7:10 pm. Jerusalem is seven hours behind New York, so where I live, Elul 1 will begin on Saturday at 12:10 pm.
DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET: Our Lord gave this chaplet to St. Faustina, instructing us to particularly recite it during the nine days before the Feast of Mercy (the first Sunday after Easter). He said, “By this Novena, [of Chaplets] I will grant every possible grace to souls.” It is also appropriate to pray it during the “Hour of Great Mercy” — i.e., three o’clock each afternoon, recalling the time of Christ’s death on the cross. N.b., The version in the graphic is not the official version. It’s a slightly simpler version I created, because it’s easier for someone who prays the rosary a lot to remember. The official version is at the link.
END TIMES PROPHECY: A message given to Luz de Maria by Michael the Archangel on August 15, 2022 [10:26] – I’m not going to transcribe this, because it’s all worth hearing.
FAMINE: Droughts across the globe are affecting agriculture in 18 countries, all of which are major food producers. In addition, a survey from 15 states within the U.S. farm belt showed 74% of producers expect lower than normal harvests.
FLORIDA: Charlie Crist won Tuesday’s primary for the Dem nomination to run against Ron DeSantis. On Wednesday, just four days after tweeted about a “united Florida”, he emphatically stated that he did not want the vote of anyone who has ever supported DeSantis, because they’re all “haters.”
CLICK https://twitter.com/KaivanShroff/status/1562488760763265024 [:28]. All the “GOOD Democrats, GOOD Independents, and GOOD Republicans” will “unify” with his ticket. Soooo typical of Democrats these days. It’s never about policy with them; it’s all about how eeevil you are if you disagree with them.
GOVERNMENT PERSECUTION: [2:57] – And the Antichrist rises.
NICARAGUA: The nation’s anti-Catholic dictator has had Bishop Ronaldo Alvarez and his associates arrested for alleged inciting “violent groups” in the country. (Translation: Criticizing Ortega’s attacks on human rights and the Church.)
Pope Francis has not condemned the detentions specifically, but instead expressed “conviction and … hope that through means of open and sincere dialogue, one can still find the bases for respectful and peaceful co-existence.”
TRUMP: The Donald celebrated “ALL WINS” for the candidates he endorsed in Tuesday’s primaries. He also noted, “Overall for last 4 years, 98.4% on Endorsements!“
YELP: On Tuesday, the site announced it will slap the following label on profiles of pro-life pregnancy resource centers: “This is a Crisis Pregnancy Center. Crisis Pregnancy Centers typically provide limited medical services and may not have licensed medical professionals onsite.” The exact same thing could be said for abortion clinics, but I’m guessing Yelp won’t be putting any nasty little labels on those.
In a blatant bid to buy midterm votes, Joe has announced he will (illegally) cancel $10,000 in student loans for each borrower earning less than $125,000, and $20,000 per borrower who paid for college using Pell Grants.
He also said he will extend the pause on federal student loan repayment, initiated during COVID-19 lockdowns, to January 2023. Under this new (illegal) plan, borrowers with undergraduate loans can also cap repayments at 5% of their monthly income.
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget put the estimated cost of the cancellation plan between $400 and $600 billion.
The House Judiciary Republicans tried to post, “If you take out a loan, you pay it back. Period,” on their Facebook account. The Effing Bee took it down, claiming it violated community standards.
Asked if his student debt forgiveness plan is “unfair to people who paid their student loans,” FAUXTUS said, “Is it fair to people who in fact do not own multi-billion dollar businesses to see one of these guys getting all the tax credits? Is that fair? What do you think?” … uhhhh, what?
CLICK (or not) https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1562863099727986689 [:24] to hear FAUXTUS’ WH Spox explain how they’re trying to “fix a broken system.” Can we just mention that they broke it?! Student loans worked just fine when the banks (not the feds) were doing it.
And, in a very surprising twist, the ultra leftie Washington Post has come out strong AGAINST the Biden plan! Wow, if you’re being too libtard for WaPo, you’re really way out there.
IOWAHAWK has a long thread analyzing student loan default rates for different schools and majors. It has some surprising stuff in it that I didn’t know. He also talks about what is really wrong with the current system and what they’re not doing that would fix it.
Jason Furman (once head of Barack Obama’s council of economic advisers) has another thread about the proposal that likens it to throwing gasoline on the fire of inflation. Twitchy says, “When even one of Obama’s lackeys knows this is a bad idea? You know it’s really really really bad.”
BEN & JERRY’S: [2:54] – In typical woke fashion, the Lefties who run Ben & Jerry’s decided that the people who make and eat their ice cream in Israel need to be punished for squatting on “Palestinian” land. But since Ben & Jerry’s had sold themselves to Unilever, which refused to punish the Israeli franchise, the wokesters sued. And lost.
Jewish Business News noted, “Ben & Jerry’s said [it] …. supposedly cares about how the Palestinians are being treated in those areas. The company, however, did not care so much about the Arab workers who would lose jobs at the factory in the Negev where its products are produced locally, or those in the West Bank who also enjoy its ice cream.”
END TIMES PROPHECY: St. Faustina recorded the following message from Jesus – “Before the day of justice arrives, there will be given to people a sign in the heavens of this sort: All light in the heavens will be extinguished, and there will be great darkness over the whole earth. Then the sign of the cross will be seen in the sky and from the openings of the hands and the feet of the Savior were nailed will come forth great lights which will light up the earth for a period of time.”
FAUCI: “Saint” Tony is a heartless, lying bastard. CLICK https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1562181321216200705 [2:15] to hear him say he didn’t shut down anything and anyway the shutdowns didn’t do any “irreparable” damage to anyone.
FAUXTUS: In a blatant bid to buy midterm votes, FAUXTUS is planning to unilaterally forgive student debts. A year ago, Fancy Nancy correctly stated that the president did not have the power to bypass Congress and forgive student loan debt with the flourish of a pen.
MEDIA: Atlanta police have arrested Jonah Sampson, 30, for allegedly spray-painting swastikas and anti-gay slurs on public property. The news outlets that rushed to blame the graffiti on white nationalists are suddenly showing no interest in the fact that Sampson is a black nationalist who hates white people, gays, and Jews. Not the Bee says, “The story has practically died and jail records show Mr. Simpson hasn’t been charged with a hate crime.”
UFOs: [1:33] – In the 2023 federal budget, lawmakers have included money to expand the military’s UFO trackers, noting that “transmedium threats to United States national security are expanding exponentially.” Given how close we are to the rise of Antichrist, I am not surprised that “visitations” by “aliens” (i.e., demons) are on the rise. Look at a Roswell “alien” and tell me you don’t see a froggy face.
GRAMMY NOTES: This was fun. 🙂 – Also fun was this when the Mascots’ pastor came over to bless the house. Bootz showed him the wooden sword and shield he got at the Renaissance Festival. Mama says to him, “Is that the Sword of Truth?” Bootz replies, “No, Mom. That one is upstairs in my closet.“
PSA: Put your food and drink away before watching the next two clips!! ROFLLLL ::chokegasp::
ELECTION DENIERS: The next time a Libtard bitches about Republicans denying election results, play this for him/her/it. CLICK https://twitter.com/SteveGuest/status/1561383265143083008 [9:59]. It’s ten solid minutes of Democrats denying election results.
ERIC SWALWELL: It’s not like Rep. Eric “Fart-Fart” Fang Banger ever took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. Oh wait. He totally did. But he has apparently never read it. Or if he did, he didn’t understand it.
The phrase “Separation of Church and State” does not appear in the Bill of Rights or, indeed, anywhere in our founding documents. However, the phrase “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights” appears prominently in our very first founding document.
The “separation” phrase was taken from a letter that then-President Thomas Jefferson wrote to a Baptist church in Danbury, Connecticut. The fact that it was never meant to suggest that religion be eliminated from all public spaces is clear from his actions. Just two days after he wrote that letter, he attended church services in the House of Representatives. He also gave permission for various denominations to worship in executive office buildings.
As for the First Amendment, it also does not boot religion from public spaces, but rather forbids Congress from promoting one religion or religious denomination over any other and from restricting an individual’s religious practices.
EV: The photo shows lithium extraction fields in South America. Lithium is most famous for powering the Electric Vehicles the Global Elite want to make the exclusive vehicle on the planet. Their claim is that they’re “saving the planet” by eliminating fossil fuels. Uh, not so much. Lithium is toxic and its mining is harmful to the environment.
Plus, it is too limited a resource to ever allow everyone who now drives a gas-powered vehicle to own an EV. I’m thinking that’s the real point of it all. The Elites want to create a global version of Medieval Europe, where 2% controlled all the resources, while the 98% were forced to support their lavish lifestyles, while being forbidden to travel or bear arms.
FAUCI: Find the time for this one – First, push your cuppa out of reach! CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=641111660476245 [17:31] cuz BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! “Chaga aisles … Cornell educated lawyers with weak husbands” ROFLLLLL ::snortgasp::
Yeah, so okay, the second part part isn’t funny at all. Tony Fauci may have one of the highest body counts in all of history. Thank You, Lord, that You will ensure we get justice for this man’s many sins against us.
FBI: The FBI’s outrageous raid on Trump’s home is part of a counterintelligence case being run out of Washington, D.C., by the same people who led “Crossfire Hurricane”! Even more outrageous, these people are being allowed to handle this case, one of the most politically sensitive in history, while being under active investigation by both John Durham and the bureau’s disciplinary arm, the Office of Professional Responsibility.
LIZ CHENEY: Apparently, Liz Cheney does not remember how, during the 2008 primaries, John McCain was the media’s bff cuz the Left wanted his pasty face to run against Teh Won. I also remember how, as soon as he was the nominee against their Ascended Master, they turned on him and he was all, ”Why don’t you like me any more?”
Liz was the Left’s “Patriot of the Year” for helping Pelosi et al. trash Trump. But now that she poses a threat with her pathetic ideas about running for president, the “93%” memo has gone out. Click the link to see all the tweets saying essentially the same thing. Funny how that happens …
This guy explains the sudden reversal: ”If she runs as Independent it will only take votes away from Dem who runs #VoteBlue2022.”
PAULY P: [5:14] – He was in custody for 5 hours and will not serve another minute. Is this normal for a DUI that resulted in a crash so bad that vehicles were totaled and a person was injured? Hmmm … let’s ponder for a mo’ what would’ve happened if the drunk/drugged driver of that car had been Donald Trump Jr.
PRAYER FOR TECHNOLOGY: Lord Jesus Christ, Sovereign King enthroned in Heaven, in your love and mercy establish a perimeter of protection with Your Precious Blood around our communication devices and all technology – the cameras, webcams, microphones, speakers, displays, any and all software, routers, WiFi connections, optic cables and light waves used to transfer data.
Cleanse them with your Precious Blood and drive from them any Satanic influence. Establish around them a sanctuary of your mercy where Satan and any other evil spirit or human agency cannot interfere. I ask Father that you would block, bind, rebuke and render impotent any assault of the Evil One from them in any way.
Father, so long as these instruments are utilized in in building God’s Kingdom, we ask you to allow them to enjoy the protection of the Blessed Mother, St. Michael the Archangel and all the Holy Angels.
We ask this in Your Most Holy Name, the Name before which every knee shall bow, in Heaven, on the Earth and under the Earth, that Jesus Christ is Lord. Amen.
PRO-ABORT LIES: In the last month, mainstream media organizations have run stories about women with chronic pain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis being denied a drug called methotrexate, because of pro-life laws. Although it is true that, in high doses, the drug can induce an abortion, it is not true that doctors or pharmacists are put at risk by pro-life laws.
“Some drugs are commonly useful for different purposes, some of which are entirely legitimate medicine. This is a well-known truth that goes back to the 19th century. That’s why the abortion laws have long said…….’used with intent to terminate pregnancy.’” – Clarke Forsythe, senior counsel with Americans United for Life
PSA: Internet scams primarily target the elderly who are easy to scare and not tech savvy [18:25] – Make sure you and yours are wise in their ways. Do NOT call the number or click any links they give you. If you’re concerned about your account, contact the organization (your bank, Amazon, whatever) through a legit access point. Your local bank will have a local phone number. Internet businesses all have their own web sites. After reassuring yourself that your account is fine, report the scam. These companies have fraud departments to help protect their customers. The FTC also has a scam reporting option @ https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/. And you can forward the information to Officialscammerpayback@gmail.com who will use it in the fight.
TOLERANCE: Max Berger has worked with Justice Democrats, Elizabeth Warren, and Cori Bush. He co-founded the antisemitic, anti-Zionist group IfNotNow and currently works for a group called More Perfect union that seeks to “strengthen our communities and heal our country by creating meaningful connections through service and leadership.”
I’m sure it was that healing, connecting spirit that led Berger to respond to the Opinion piece in the NYSlime with, “Donald Trump led an insurrection against the government of the United States. There is no happy ending to his prosecution because 1/4 and 1/3 Americans support it. The political question is whether we appease the insurrectionists or attempt to crush them.”
Varad Mehta asked him, “How many dead people are you willing to accept to make your fantasies come true?” Maybe we could look to other ambitious, intolerant types for a guesstimate. How many millions died because of Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, Castro, and Fauci?
WOKE: Calling a ship “she” is based on centuries of nautical tradition … except in Russia, where the ships are “he.” But never mind that. I guess these days we need to ask the ships how they each identify before presuming, RIGHT?
GRAMMY NOTES: Dearest and I play Backgammon while we eat. It’s simple enough to allow us to talk about our day, but engaging enough that we don’t let our thoughts wander off from where we are or who we’re with.
The important Jewish liturgical season of “Return and Repentance” begins at sundown on the evening before Elul 1 (Sat., Aug. 27, 2022) and lasts forty days, until sundown on Tishri 10 (Wed., Oct. 5, 2022), which is Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement).
The Jewish month of Elul is known as both the “Month of Mercy” and the “Month of Forgiveness.” It is when the faithful are called to meditate on their lives and prepare for repentance on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur).
If you have read my blog, “Get yourselves prayed up, people!” @ https://polination.wordpress.com/2022/06/16/get-yourselves-prayed-up-people/, you will know why I think this period of “Return and Repentance” could very well be when the Sixth Seal (Rev. 6:12-17) and Seventh Seal (Rev. 8:1) will be opened.
Tradition teaches that, following the Golden Calf incident, Moses spent the 40 day period between Elul 1 and Yom Kippur back up on the mountain, praying for God’s forgiveness. When he returned, he had the second set of tablets to replace the ones he had broken in his rage over the idolatry of the Hebrews. This is seen as a testimony to God’s willingness and desire to forgive those who repent.
The End Times seers have told us that, after The Warning, there will be a period of peace during which demons will not be allowed to act. I’m thinking maybe … just maybe! (not setting dates/times) … it will be silent in Heaven for a half hour (more or less) because everybody will be on Earth helping converts and reverts to put down strong roots in good soil before the Anti-Christ is loosed. It could be … could! (not setting dates/times) … be that “about half an hour” is a symbolic number for “about thirty days.” Elul is 29 days long.
CATHOLIC: Saint Anthony Catholic School in northeast Washington, D.C. has been vandalized twice in less than a week. During the first assault, a window was damaged, benches were ripped from the ground, and a statue of Saint Anthony was left headless after being toppled over. During the second, the principal’s office ransacked, two more statues were smashed, and $1,400 was stolen. D.C. police have arrested a suspect and charged him with theft and destruction of property.
CALIFORNICATION: [6:27] – The father of a 4-year-old California boy in transitional kindergarten said school officials called the police Thursday to boot his son from class over his refusal to wear a mask.
MIDTERMS: [4:19] – Last Thursday, Mitch McConnell said he didn’t think the GOP would retake the Senate, because the quality of the candidates was poor.
Trump responded by asking, “Why do Republicans Senators allow a broken down hack politician, Mitch McConnell, to openly disparage hard working Republican candidates for the United States Senate. This is such an affront to honor and to leadership. He should spend more time (and money!) helping them get elected, and less time helping his crazy wife and family get rich on China!”
McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, owns a shipping company that does extensive business in China.
PORN: “A man who laughs at the very idea that he may be hurting his wife by watching porn only proves the point. He has become so intensely self-involved that his wife’s needs are a joke to him. Even when she tells him that she is hurt by it, still, he blows her off and returns to the naked people on the screen. In this way, porn is even more insidious than a traditional, in-person affair, because it not only robs the wife of the fidelity and honor she is owed, but it even robs her of the right to feel angry and forsaken by her husband’s infidelity.
“Few men, unless they are outright sociopaths, would scoff at their wives for being upset at them for sleeping with the secretary. They are more likely to apologize (whether sincerely or not) and cry and beg for forgiveness. Neither party will deny that the issue is a big deal. But a man who watches porn, though he has committed a form of adultery, is much bolder when confronted. He will defend his actions and actually get outraged at his wife for being outraged. She is left feeling betrayed — and crazy for feeling betrayed.
BUILD BACK WORSE: The Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that between 78% and 90% of the estimated additional $200 billion the IRS will collect will come from small businesses making less than $200,000 annually. Just 4% to 9% will come from businesses making north of $500,000 a year. But, but, but … that can’t be!! FAUXTUS promised he wouldn’t raise taxes on anyone making less than $400,000!
CATHOLIC: [2:20] – Here’s the secret to skipping Purgatory and going straight to Heaven.
EV: Build Back Worse includes federal EV tax credits for purchases of electric vehicles made in North America, which excludes many of them. Plus, Ford just announced they are raising the price of their electric F-150 Lightning pickups by between $6,000 and $8,500, which pretty much wipes out the tax credit.
EXTREMISTS: The New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) is airing an ad calling parents who care what they’re kids are being taught “extremists.” The add shows parents protesting at school board meetings over books included in school curricula that contain explicit sexual and LGBTQ content.
“If protecting our children from Phil Murphy’s insane sex ed standards is ‘extreme,’ then we wear this as a badge of honor, @NJEA” – The New Jersey Republican Party
“Hey, @NJEA. Concerned parents who show up at school board meetings are not ‘extremists.’ THEY’RE PARENTS!” – State Assembly Republican Caucus
“It’s another example of the NJEA being out of touch with parents and totally tone deaf to their concerns.” – Republican State Senator Ed Durr
GUMMINT WASTE: A July GAO report says the Department of Education originally estimated that federal direct student loans would generate billions in income for the federal government. The reality is that they have so far cost taxpayers $197 billion.
JOBS: A nonprofit that tracks the number of jobs companies are bringing back to the U.S. says we are on pace to reshore nearly 350,000 jobs this year. This will be the highest number on record since the Reshoring Initiative started tracking the data in 2010. Most of them are coming back from China, Mexico and Canada.
