DEMOCRATS: On Sunday’s Meet the Press with Chuck Todd, Democrat pundit Mark Liebovich said about Trump running again, “Look we have no plan for this, except sitting around hoping he dies.”

END TIMES PROPHECY: [4:52] – God will send a great and permanent sign from Heaven to prove that Our Lady is among us on Earth. The sign will be visible, permanent, indestructible, and beautiful. “This sign will be given for the atheists. You faithful already have signs and you have become the sign for the atheists. You faithful must not wait for the sign before you convert: convert soon. This time is a time of grace for you.”

KANSAS: On Aug. 2, Sunflower State voters will be the first in the nation to vote specifically about abortion since Roe was overturned. Kansas has long been an abortion sanctuary; the late-term abortionist, George Tiller, did his killing there before an irate father killed him as he was leaving church.

LIFE: FAUXTUS has repeated the pro-aborts’ new favorite, but very sketchy tale of a 10-year-old rape victim who couldn’t get an abortion in her home state because Roe was overturned. But it’s illegal to hide child rape, and the #MeToo Lefties, who have made this alleged victim their poster child, should be jumping up and down demanding this kid getting something other than an abortion. Say, JUSTICE. And maybe future SAFETY from her rapist?!

But the AG in her state says, “We have regular contact with prosecutors and local police and sheriffs and not a whisper anywhere. Something maybe even more telling is that my office runs the state crime lab. Any case like this you’re going to have a rape kit, you’re going to have biological evidence, and you would be looking for DNA analysis. There is no case request for analysis that looks anything like this.”

TEXAS: Kamala Harris is a joke. [4:42] – Gov. Abbott has issued an executive order authorizing his state’s National Guard and the Texas Department of Public Safety to arrest immigrants who illegally cross the border between ports of entry and return them to Mexico. He says this move was necessary, because “President Biden refuses to do his job.”

TWITTER: Elon Musk summarized the history of his dealing with Twitter in one meme. LOL

BRAIN CHEMISTRY: [5:25] – This is really interesting.

CATHOLIC: The Vatican has formally joined the Paris Climate Agreement, despite its abortion and population control agenda.

END TIMES PROPHECY: The following is an excerpt from the secret message that Melanie Calvat said the Blessed Mother gave to her at La Salette on September 19, 1846. It was recovered from the Vatican archives in 1999.

“Hell will reign on earth. It will be then that the Antichrist will be born of a Sister, but woe to her! Many will believe in him, because he will claim to have come from heaven, woe to those who will believe in him! That time is not far away, twice 50 years will not go by.”

I have often thought that the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were as close to Hell reigning on Earth as we’ve ever come. They occurred on August 6 and 9, 1945, just short of 100 (twice 50) years after the apparition at La Salette.

If the prophecy and my interpretation are correct, the Antichrist was born in August of 1945 and is now 76 years old.

FAUXTUS: CINO Joe has signed an Executive Order instructing HHS to protect and expand access to abortion drugs and the DOJ to provide legal support for women seeking abortions and doctors committing them. I’m pretty sure this is illegal under the Hyde Amendment, but that’s never stopped a Democrat from doing anything.

LOUISIANA: CLICK https://rumble.com/v1bk7cz-pro-life-activist-assaulted-for-urging-louisiana-facility-to-stop-committin.html [2:00] to see an abortion worker smack a pro-life activist with a stick, then take his phone and slam it to the ground. The woman has been issued a summons for charges of aggravated assault and simple criminal damage to property. I think it is creepy as hell that this clinic doesn’t allow patients to bring cell phones or handbags in with them.

MASS SHOOTINGS: Another common feature is that the shooters are boys who lacked a father figure in their lives.

SCOTUS: This inane Super Libtard tweet got some funny responses. “Because 1 million morons don’t know how SCOTUS appointments work.” “I’m embarrassed for you.” “There’s a new thing called the Constitution.” “There’s 350 million people in America vs only 1 million so do the math.” “I’m sorry the education system failed you so horribly.” “Because you didn’t pay a lot of attention in Civics class?”

BORDER: The mounted Border Patrol agents who were falsely accused of “whipping” Haitian migrants in Del Rio have been cleared of wrong doing and are being punished with unpaid suspensions of up to 14 days. Tweet: “Demoralization is the goal.” Yeah, I agree. And from what I’ve read, it’s working.

END TIMES PROPHECY: [7:31] – Luz de Maria says that, on January 11, 2022, Michael the Archangel told her, “The fall of the world economy will quicken the pace of the Antichrist who dwells on Earth beside his subjects. … We protect you. We go before, behind, beside each one of you. Do not be afraid. This is a time of great miracles. With my sword held high, I bless you.”

I saw an equally sniffy tweet allegedly from an MD about how she had more women coming into the ER with signs of miscarriage that she supposedly isn’t allowed to treat because they might have had an abortion. Puh-leeze. That’s a stoopid as the “they won’t treat an ectopic pregnancy” line.

PHILADELPHIA: The “City of Brotherly Love” is now the “Democrat Hell Hole of Senseless Crime.” [3:25] – On Friday, June 24, 2022, four Black males and three Black females who appear to be in the early to mid teens chased down and brutally beat a 72-year-old man who later died of his injuries. Then they calmly walked away. One of them apparently filmed the incident, maybe so they could all enjoy it again later. With popcorn.

The week before, somebody sprayed Alyssa Morales (36) with a flammable liquid, then set her on fire. She has burns on over 60 percent of her body and is in a medically induced coma.

Police haven’t yet found any of the assailants.

PROJECT VERITAS: [5:26] – This undercover video was taken at Cesare Santangelo’s late-term abortion facility, Surgi-Clinic, in Washington, D.C. It proves they do not use feticide to ensure fetal death, meaning babies are likely being born alive and killed in violation of federal law.

The video also shows the nurse telling the patient that the doctor will not talk to the patient unless she has taken Xanax first, something the patient said she doesn’t want to do as it would cloud her mind. Dr. C. Ben Mitchell, ethicist and former Graves Chair of Moral Philosophy at Union University, said this is an ethical violation. “The physician himself or herself is ultimately responsible to ensure informed consent. … Failure to do so is a dereliction of duty.”

Prolife activists recently found five late-term aborted babies being disposed of as medical waste from Surgi-Clinic. Some were deemed by medical experts to have likely been viable births. One, who had been between 28 and 30 weeks gestation, appeared to have been killed by the illegal partial-birth method. Two others appeared to have been born alive and then murdered.

TWITTER: ShutDownDC tweeted, “DC Service Industry Workers… If you see Kavanaugh, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett or Roberts DM us with the details! We’ll venmo you $50 for a confirmed sighting and $200 if they’re still there 30 mins after your message.”

Another tweet on that account says, “No rights for us, no peace for you. Get fucked.” Twitter has not removed these tweets or suspended the account. And after their efforts led to Justice Kavanaugh leaving a restaurant through the rear on Wednesday night, ShutDownDC congratulated itself.

At a WH presser, Peter Doocy asked WH Spox Jean-Pierre, “So these Justices, because protesters do not agree with an opinion… have no right to privacy?” Jean-Pierre replied, “This is what a democracy is.“

On Twitter, Pete Bootyjudge’s “husband”, Chasten, smirked about Kavanaugh being chased out of a restaurant, for which he got some well deserved smacks like: “What happens if MAGA types start showing up where ever you and Pete go? This continued escalation is a dangerous game, especially since Kavanaugh just had an assassination attempt on him. You don’t want the world you’re advocating for.”

WITH GOD IN RUSSIA: This classic memoir of an American-born Jesuit priest imprisoned for fifteen years in a Soviet gulag during the height of the Cold War has just been republished. While ministering in Eastern Europe during World War II, Polish-American priest Walter Ciszek, S.J., was arrested by the NKVD, the Russian secret police, shortly after the war ended. Accused of being an American spy and charged with “agitation with intent to subvert,” he was held in Moscow’s notorious Lubyanka prison for five years, then sentenced without trial to ten more years of hard labor in Siberia.

Enduring brutal conditions, Father Ciszek risked his life to offer spiritual guidance to fellow prisoners who could easily have exposed him for their own gains. He chronicles these experiences with grace, humility, and candor, from his secret work leading mass and hearing confessions within the prison grounds, to his participation in a major gulag uprising, to his release in a prisoner exchange in October 1963.

2020: On Friday, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) illegally authorized the use of ballot drop boxes in the 2020 election.

“Only the legislature may permit absentee voting via ballot drop boxes. WEC cannot. Ballot drop boxes appear nowhere in the detailed statutory system for absentee voting. WEC’s authorization of ballot drop boxes was unlawful.“

In California, the Superior Court of Los Angeles County has ruled that the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) does not have the authority to require ‘rona vaxxxes for all students.

Oregon’s Department of Education is spending $2 million on indoctrinating public school teachers in why European heritage is a very bad thing. This is just like Nazism, but with a different set of genes.

This is just the latest of his thefts from our SOR. The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve is supposed to be used only for wartime emergencies. And now he’s is going to Saudi Arabia to beg them to drill more oil. Democrats hate America! I really don’t wish an eternity in Hell on anyone … but I wouldn’t shed a tear if the Bidens and all their vile Democrat cronies spent a few centuries each in Purgatory for all the harm they’ve done.

Our Lady of the Rosary of Chiquinquirà

July 9 is the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary of Chiquinquirà. She is the patron of Colombia and Venezuela.

In 1560, Fray Andrés Jadraque of the Spanish Dominicans and Colonist Don Antonio de Santana commissioned Alonso Narváez to paint an image for the church. The artist used a rough 44″ X 49″ piece of material that had been woven by the local Native people. He painted the image using pigments taken from the areas – soil, mixed with herbs and flowers from that region of Colombia. The image shows the Virgin with the Christ Child and the two personal patrons of the men who commissioned the painting – the Apostle St. Andrew and St. Anthony of Padua.

Known as “Our Lady of the Rosary”, the painting was placed in a small chapel to allow for public veneration, but after only 15 years, the image had deteriorated so badly that it was removed. People basically forgot about it until a cleaning lady found it in a storeroom in 1585. She did her best to clean it up and would often come to pray before the image. The day after Christmas, she discovered the painting had been miraculously restored. Not only were the colors bright again, but small holes and tears in the canvas had somehow self-sealed.

The painting was again placed on display for the faithful and, unprotected, it survived for more than 300 years! Eventually, despite its miraculous nature, the colors once more faded and it is now displayed behind a thick plate of glass. Our Lady of Chiquinquirá was named Patroness of Colombia by Pope Pius VII in 1829.

But God didn’t stop loving on this image. Skeptics will say that somebody painted a copy so Venezuela could enjoy the fruits of gullible pilgrims and their cash. But the pious version of the image in Venezuela is that a woman was washing her clothes by the river when a small board came floating by. Thinking it might have some use, she brought it home with her. Only later did the image of Our Lady Of Chiquinquirá miraculously appear.

The image is displayed in the basilica that reportedly was built over the place of the woman’s house. Another pious tale recounts that, at one point, the Venezuelan government decided that the image belonged to Caracas, and soldiers came to take it away from the church. As they moved it farther and farther away, it became heavier and heavier. When they couldn’t carry it anymore, it was returned to the basilica where it still resides today.

END TIMES PROPHECY: [5:44] – Luz de Maria says that, on March 27, 2022, Michael the Archangel told her, “Extremely serious times are coming. Earthquakes will increase in intensity; the water of the seas will cause man to fear with unexpected and high waves. … Evil is rapidly taking possession of humanity. … Hunger will take hold of humanity as strife progresses among the nations, arising not by chance or due to differences between nations, but having been traced beforehand by the Devil and his own. … Pray, pray.”

ILLINOIS: Following my usual practice, I will not be using the name of the twisted soul who killed six and injured over 20 more at the 4th of July parade in Highland Park, Illinois. I’ve heard some jumped right to assuming he must be a right-winger or Trump supporter, I guess because he used a gun. But any Leftie who would suggest such a thing doesn’t get us at all. We’d never disrupt a July 4 parade! Turns out, he’s a big fan of Antifa and the Democratic Socialists of America. Color me NOT surprised.

As for the Left’s usual “we need more gun control” thing … there already is a law in place that should have kept this kid from getting his hands on a gun. His dad helped him circumvent it, despite knowing that his son was mentally unstable, collected knives, and had threatened to “kill everyone” and himself. And even after the tragic result, the dad says he didn’t do anything wrong. Well, he didn’t do anything illegal. But he really failed big time at the whole dad thing.

LIFE: More than 49 abortion clinics have either halted abortions or been forced to close their doors altogether since SCOTUS ended Roe. The following states are now abortion free: Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

MIDTERMS: The Democrats would love it if Roe had moved voters leftward at all. But a recent Harris poll showed those who shifted left were balanced by those who shifted right. So overall no change.

But Democrats have long championed no limits at all on gestation or reasons, going so far as to abuse the rights of opponents by forcing us to fund them with tax dollars and insurance premiums and to refer for and even participate in committing them.

But this has never been what the majority of Americans wanted. I’ve been tracking abortion polls since the 1980s. The numbers in the recent Gallup poll in the graphic are typical. And the polls that ask for a breakdown by circumstances and gestational limits find that the vast majority of the “legal sometimes” crowd favor the first trimester or earlier and life of the mother, rape, and/or incest only.

TIKTOK: Last week, the Chinese-owned social media platform booted the Babylon Bee out. The BB was given no reason or option to appeal. I went to TikTok and googled “Babylon Bee.” It said it couldn’t find any such account. They had more than 104,000 followers.

VAXXX: Clearly, the smart money is on prevention and treatment, not vaccination.

  1. Researchers in Qatar have confirmed that, after just six months the so-called “protection” provided by the mRNA vaxxxines is lower than that gained by natural immunity.
  2. Researchers in Israel have found that the unvaxxxed who have had COVID-19 are not suffering from the increases in myocarditis and pericarditis plaguing the vaxxxed.

I’ve heard there are some trainers who dump their losers in the desert, where they die a horrible death from thirst. Because why? They’re too cheap to pay for euthanasia? Too cruel to take them to the people who rescue and rehome? I thought the desert dumpers were the worst … until I saw this video. I’m crying. Greyhounds are the sweetest, most gentle of dog breeds. There is some special kind of hell in store for whoever did this to Tristan, and grace and blessings in abundance for his rescuers.

Bishop Against Bishop

On October 13, 1973, Our Lady of Akita, Japan, said to Sr. Agnes Sasagawa, “The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres … churches and altars sacked; the Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord.”

We’re there.

Bishop Strickland of of the Diocese of Tyler, Texas, says, “Pastoral care for Mrs. Pelosi is to tell her that she should not receive the Body of Christ until she stops advocating the murder of unborn children.”

Bishop Athanasius Schneider of the Diocese of Astana, Kazakhstan, went even further, saying that Nancy Pelosi’s sacrilegious reception of Holy Communion is a pathway to her soul’s damnation. “She is consciously, stubbornly eating her judgment.”

Despite the clear teaching of both the Scriptures and the RCC, Pope Francis insists that bishops should not deny Communion to pro-abortion politicians. He says it causes the Church to lose its “pastoral nature.”

Pope Francis was slow to even comment on the overturning of Roe, but when asked about it, he said, “I respect the decisions.” Then, he went on to say something very odd. “Let’s go … see what science tells us today. Science today and any book on embryology, the one our medical students study, tells you that 30 days after conception there is DNA and the laying out already of all the organs.”

“30 days after conception there is DNA” … huh? The zygote has its own, unique DNA from the moment of conception!

But Pope Francis’ lukewarm enthusiasm for overturning Roe was certainly reflected in the pompously worded and morally mushy statement The Pontifical Academy for Life issued. In sharp contrast to the USCCB’s statement celebrating the overturning of “an unjust law that has permitted some to decide whether others can live or die” and that “has resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of preborn children”, the PAL statement didn’t even condemn abortion, much less express any relief or joy. It also never mentioned God, the beauty and sanctity of the unborn child, or all the hard work pro-life Americans put into achieving this victory.

This should probably be no surprise to Catholic watchers; the PAL (or PAV, if you’re using the Latin name) has been pro-abortion ever since 2016, when Pope Francis gutted it of all devout conservatives and removed the requirement for members to sign a declaration that they uphold the Church’s pro-life teachings!

I’m thinking we should just not look to this pontiff for any kind of wisdom with respect to scientific issues. I heard he refused to even meet with climate experts like Patrick Moore before publishing his encyclical telling us we sin if we don’t jump on the Green New Deal wagon. It’s not his job to pick a single solution and it is way outside his purview when he has refused to even listen to all sides of an issue.

Then, he did the same damn thing with the vaxxx. He declared that vaccines developed using cell lines derived from aborted fetuses were “morally acceptable” and refused to grant Catholics religious exemptions from vaxxx mandates.

He told us that we had a “moral obligation” to take the jabs, that it would be “suicide” not to. He also condemned as baseless ideological misinformation (aka, fake news) all of our concerns about the rushed development of the vaxxxes, the suspicious reticence of the manufacturers and the FDA to release critical test results, and the highly experimental nature of the totally untested mRNA technology.

Archbishop Viganò recently delivered a message which, in part, said, “Those who govern public affairs as well as the Pastors of the Church show that they are obedient to the anti-gospel of the world, and while refusing to pay due respect to Christ the King and obedience to His holy Will, they bend their knees before the new idols of political correctnessand burn incense before the simulacrum of humanity brutalized by vice and sin. Those who today lead the people in temporal and spiritual things have as their purpose not the common good of citizens and the salvation of the souls of the faithful, but their corruption, their damnation. And the masses, having abandoned the way of honesty, righteousness and holiness, abandon themselves to deception, corruption and infernal revolt against God.”

What loving your neighbor looks like

By Sean Dietrich
July 3, 2022

Mendon, Missouri. Population 171. There’s really nothing here. The tiny town is located off Route 11, just south of Yellow Creek. You’re three hours west of Saint Louis, two hours east of Kansas City.

It’s quiet. No attractions. No major landmarks. Nobody famous ever lived here unless you count Vern Kennedy, right-hander for the White Sox, circa 1934.

If you’re looking for entertainment in Mendon, your main option is Busch Light. But you’ll have to drive all the way to Brunswick to find a liquor store.

“We are just country folk,” said Mendon native Carol Ann Wamsley, “and that’s what makes us a special place.”

At its heart, Mendon is a railroad town. The first iron tracks were laid in 1887. Within a decade, a town sprang up. You had a few dozen storefronts, a school, a newspaper, and a couple churches with steeply conflicting views on eternal damnation. Most of that is gone now.

Today, the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad line still passes the northwest side of the community, only now it’s the Southern Transcon Railroad.

The Amtrak Southwest Chief runs through town regularly. On summer afternoons you can see the Amtrak locomotive in the distance, racing across the prairie like a polished chromium bullet. But the train never stops here. It just keeps moving.

Until last week.

It was a Monday that will live in infamy. The Southwest Chief made an unexpected stop near Mendon, of all places.

The Chief was traveling 87 mph, bound for Chicago. There were more people aboard than there are living within Mendon’s city limits.

Up ahead a dump truck was on the tracks. The truck was obstructing the crossing of County Road 113. This was not a small truck. This was a vehicle about the size of a Sonic Drive-In.

The train never slowed.

The sound of the collision could be heard from as far away as Westville. It was the noise of two General Electric diesel locomotives and seven Superliner cars plowing into a mass of Dearborn steel. The train was derailed.

Ron Goulet was riding coach.

“…I was airborne. Everything was tumbling. People on top of people. The train rolled on its right side—the entire train, except for the front locomotive.”

Carry-on bags went everywhere. Elbows collided with craniums. Shoes crashed into jaws. Children clashed against the ceiling.

“When I climbed up and out of the train…” said Ron, “I was stunned that the entire thing was lying on its side. Not in a jumbled mass, but all laid over on the side.”

The story made national headlines, of course. Reporters from national newspapers visited. They photographed, videoed and wrote. Cable news anchors wore frowny faces and mentioned the wreck, just before cutting to commercials urging elderly viewers to reverse mortgage their livers.

But somehow, the bigger story about what happened in Mendon was lost. Somehow, you didn’t hear about Mendon’s magnificent people.

Sure, you heard about the wreck itself; the 150 injured, and the four fatalities. But you didn’t hear about how the residents of Mendon—nearly every single resident—rushed to the scene of the accident.

Throngs of ordinary townspeople arrived before first responders even knew about the crash. There were volunteers crawling out of the wallpaper.

“It was a wonderful problem to have,” said school district superintendent, Eric Hoyt, “but we probably had too many volunteers show up.”

People came from all over Chariton County, riding beat-up Silverados, ATVs, or arriving on foot. They came from Sumner, Marceline, Cunningham, Brookfield and Indian Grove.

Two Boy Scout troops dutifully helped injured victims from the wreckage. Local high-schoolers were fashioning bandages out of bandannas. Old women recited the Lord’s Prayer alongside strangers in blood-stained clothes.

There were farmers, off-duty nurses, truck drivers, soccer moms, Little League coaches and grade-schoolers. They were doling out food, first aid, bottled water and, most importantly, phone chargers.

Victims were taken to local homes, fed, bathed and bandaged. Weeping passengers were embraced by rural preachers. Passengers using wheelchairs were lifted from the rubble by young men in ropers and camouflage caps.

Local schoolbus drivers transported the wounded to hospitals. Northwestern High School staff members triaged victims in the gymnasium and fed people in the cafeteria.

One resident said that Mendon didn’t feel like a 171-person town anymore. “It was like 671 people came together.”

And the most unusual thing about all this is: None of this is unusual. At least not within the national tapestry that is The Great American Small Town.

Although we rarely hear about such acts of compassion and lovingkindness within our society, believe me, they happen. Every day. Every hour. Ordinary Americans will astound you with their goodwill. Sadly, ordinary American journalists aren’t interested in being astounded by such things.

Either way. Now you know the rest of the story.
