AOC: Sandy thinks WE should pay off the rest of her student loan. She makes $175,000/year, probably pays only $200/month on the loan, and just bought herself a $50,000 Tesla. So, no.

DEMOCRATS SUCK: This is an awesome rant. [6:35] – “Under the carelessness and malevolence of Democrat leadership, where crime runs rampant and you are afraid to leave your home. Fear is what the Democrats want.”

DEMOCRATS SUCK: A second awesome rant. [9:17] – There is a spate of hate crimes against these Christian symbols. Leftists think it’s amusing. I’m sure Satan is inspiring it and laughing his a** off about it.

JUDEAN DATES: [8:24] – This BBC report about the resurrection of extinct Judean date palm trees was published last summer, but I stumbled on to it right after watching two Fox News rants about the burning of Christmas trees. God is sweet. 🙂

JUDICIAL WATCH: The Delaware Supreme Court has ruled in favor of JW’s request for documents held by the University of Delaware regarding Biden’s years in the Senate and as vice president. The University of Delaware has refused to release any of the records until 2 years after Biden retires. And Biden has fought to keep them from scrutiny, possibly because they contain the records of a sexual harassment complaint by Tara Reade and possibly some material on Hunter’s business deals.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: He’s guilty. We knew this, but now the jury has made it official.

MANDATES: Two Democrats joined all 50 Republicans in the Senate to strike down Biden’s federal vaccine mandate for private businesses. It may or may not get through the House, but even if it does, it will surely be vetoed by FAUXTUS. Unless things change dramatically, there aren’t enough votes to overturn a veto.

MEDIA: [4:33] – Democrats really do think we’re stupid.

OMICRON: CLICK https://rumble.com/vqfnbc-he-routinely-causes-fear-and-hysteria-rand-paul-slams-fauci-again.html [4:40] to hear Sen. Rand Paul talk about how the Dems are again ignoring the science. The WHO says Omicron is less deadly than Delta which was less deadly than Alpha.

PROJECT VERITAS: [4:35] – Alex Stovall is running as a Republican for U.S. Congress in Arizona’s District 9, but it appears he’s more grifter than patriot. Since PV published this video, Stovall switched his “Alex for Arizona” Twitter and “Alex for Congress” Instagram accounts private.

PUTIN IN NEWSMAX: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=4404735576315041 [3:57] to hear NewsMax respond to Brian Williams’ Big Fat Lie about their coverage of Putin.

SCOTUS: On December 1, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, a case involving a Mississippi law prohibiting most abortions after fifteen weeks. During the pro-abortion presentation by “devout Catholic” FAUXTUS’ lawyer, Justice Thomas referenced a real case (Whitner v. South Carolina), in which a woman was convicted of criminal child neglect for using crack cocaine during pregnancy, and asked if the state had a valid interest in protecting unborn children from harm. Biden’s lawyer said yes, begging the question why a state can keep you from harming unborn children, but can’t keep you from killing them?

SHRILLARY: CLICK https://twitter.com/TrumpJew2/status/1468586217147092994 [1:06] if you can stand to hear her read a portion of the victory speech she wrote and never got to present.

AUSTRALIA: [20:14]- The majority of the residents of Katherine, in the Northern Territory, are fully vaxxxed, but the territory is freaking out about COVID. Residents are locked down. The unvaxxxed can’t “participate in the economy”, which sounds a lot like not being allowed to buy or sell.

Even worse, the COVID positive and everyone who has had any contact with them are being flown to a camp where their individual isolation is enforced by guards and infractions are punished harshly.

Three teen boys who had tested negative decided they’d had enough and jumped the fence. The Australian cops set up checkpoints and searched cars for the boys until they were caught and returned to the camp. They face fines in excess of $5,000 and a possible extension to their sentence that is apparently irrespective of their ‘rona status.

COLLOIDAL SILVER: Recently, I ordered 2 bottles of Ionic Magnesium from Triquetra Health, but received 2 bottles of Colloidal Silver. I emailed and Daniel sent me a return label and a promise to send my magnesium asap. The package came today, but it only contained one mag, plus another silver. So I emailed again.

Daniel called me with profuse apologies and a promise to send me 2 bottles of magnesium, which means one free for me ($22), so that was really nice. But then he also told me not to bother returning the silver ($21 each). IOW, I just scored $85 worth of free health care!

So I’ve been googling to find out what Colloidal Silver is for. The best article I found is by Dr. Axe, which is linked below. It apparently has antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s also safe to use, provided it is true colloidal silver, which Triquetra’s is. (Dr. Axe goes over the two forms of silver that are not safe.)

The Triquetra product page also has this reassuring line: “The EPA has established a daily Oral Silver Reference Dose (RfD) of 350 micrograms (mcg). Based on their guidelines, you could safely take our product 2 times per day for the next 70 years.” Their product contains 150 mcg/tsp.

N.b., it is not recommended for long term use, but for 14 days at a time to treat a specific infection (bacterial, viral, fungal).

CONSTITUTIONAL CONSERVATIVES: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/DamaniBryantFelder/videos/209595311329189 [20:54] to hear Damani Bryant Felder explain why we should not get caught up in personality politics. Personally, I think Trump has gotten too old. I’d rather back someone like Ron DeSantis, who has a proven record of fighting the mandates.

DEMO: Advertisers care most about the 18-49 year old demographic, which is carefully tracked to allow networks to get as many dollars per minute as possible. Since mid-July, this demo has been abandoning the Big Three networks’ left-wing, unfunny, late-night comedians in a big way. The data show similar but less precipitous drops for total households watching these same shows.

FAUCI: Be sure to watch the video [2:19].

FDA: FAUXTUS’ nominee to lead the FDA has been a paid consultant to dozens of pharmaceutical companies, including COVID vaxxx manufacturers Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and AstraZeneca.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: [4:06] – Civil Rights Attorney Leo Terrell says the Left is embarrassed by the trial. The Kyle Smith column she mentions is linked below. It starts:

“Not since Rumpelstiltskin has a mischievous troll spent so much time and energy spinning as Jussie Smollett did on the stand the last couple of days. But instead of spinning straw into gold, Smollett spent eight hours trying to churn what the New York Times used to call a barnyard epithet into a Frappuccino. We’ll see if the jury is interested in drinking what Smollett is putting out.”

LANCET: The PTBs all assured us that we would beat the ‘rona if only we’d all get vaxxxed. The gene therapy agents were supposedly going to protect the jabbed from getting infected and therefore provide the virus with fewer vectors. When it became clear that they didn’t, we were assured that they were protecting the infected from serious illness and that any infections were totally the fault of the selfishly unvaxxxed. All of the above have been proven false.

The vaxxxed still catch the disease. They asymptomatically and unknowingly spread it around. And they get seriously ill and die from it. Examination of vaxxxed and unvaxxxed patients showed their viral loads could not be correlated to their vaxxx status or the variant they were carrying.

It should be obvious to the PTBs that the most highly vaxxxed areas have the highest case rates. But instead of backing off and admitting they screwed up, they’re ignoring the science and doubling down on their draconian mandates.

“Many decisionmakers assume that the vaccinated can be excluded as a source of transmission. It appears to be grossly negligent to ignore the vaccinated population as a possible and relevant source of transmission when deciding about public health control measures.” – Günther Kampf in Lancet

MANDATES: CLICK https://rumble.com/vqf3xu-biden-loses-again-court-halts-bidens-vax-mandate-for-federal-contractors.html [1:41] to see a report on the third big case the FAUXTUS admin has lost.

UK: Since the UK began ‘rona jabbing 12- to 15-year-old kids, deaths in the age group have spiked by 43% over the previous five-year average.

About 70% of Brits and 72% of Welsh citizens are vaxxxed. In the past 18 weeks, the English/Welsh population has recorded 20,823 deaths in excess of the five-year average.

About half of the excess deaths were due to ailments we know the vaxxx causes – i.e., heart failure, heart attacks, myocarditis, pericarditis and strokes. Heart attacks in Scotland are also up by 25% this year, compared to the five-year average.

VAXXX: People who receive the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine are at elevated risk of getting Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a severe autoimmune disorder that can cause paralysis. The incidence rate of confirmed cases per 100,000 person-years was 34.6 during the 1 to 21 days after administration, much higher than the historical background rate of 2 per 100,000 person-years.

WASHINGTON: The Chamber of Commerce of the small town of Leavenworth has approved a number of alarming changes to its longstanding “Christmas Lighting” celebration. First, they rebranded it the “Village of Lights” celebration, then they told the Catholic Knights of Columbus not to attend. (The KoC sausage booth has been a regular part of the event for more than thirty years.

Worst of all, they kicked off their not-Christmas event by inviting Krampus Seattle to give speeches and wander through downtown. The members of this group are cosplayers who dress up as the Christmas demon of German folklore. The group’s Facebook page shows lots of smiling people, but I’m thinking my youngest would’ve had screaming nightmares for weeks after seeing those characters.

According to the medieval German narrative, the Krampus would travel around after dark on December 5, capturing naughty children in a basket and bringing them down to the underworld. On December 6th, which is the Feast of St. Nicholas Day, good children were rewarded with presents that Sinter Klaas (a contraction of Saint Nicholas) supposedly left in their boots.

Recently, the legend of Krampus has gained popularity in America, with Krampus festivals held across the country in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York City. But wait … isn’t this cultural appropriation?! I’m 25% German. I protest!

GRAMMY NOTES: Dearest’s West Coast sister met the Buzzers at a park for a brief visit and some running around time before they got back on the road. Mama Buzz reports they have arrived.

Thank you in advance for your love and prayers.”

Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception is the Patron Saint of the United States of America. The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception states that the Blessed Virgin Mary not only never committed any sins, but also was preserved even from original sin right from the moment she was conceived in the womb of her mother, St. Ann, the grandmother of Jesus.

The way I understand it is to think about how God is out of time and granted Mary the gift of Baptism out of time, so as to preserve her free from sin right from the get go. The church also teaches that Mary is the true Mother of God (Theotokos), which I always assumed means that the Holy Spirit fertilized her best egg. A woman’s eggs are formed before she is born herself. She doesn’t grow new ones ever; her body just ripens one each month. Add that to the fact that the Divine Jesus had to grow inside her womb and it makes perfect sense to me that she had to be perfectly holy or, as the angel said, “Full of grace.”

I dunno if that’s even a tiny bit theologically sound, but for me it helps make sense of the Immaculate Conception in light of Romans 3:23-24 – “This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”

As we celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception and the patronal feast of the United States of America, let’s remember to ask Mary to pray for us and for our struggling nation for whom she has a special care.

ABORTION: SCOTUS is likely to overturn Roe v. Wade, which I assume means also ditching the companion Doe. “People are realizing that seven months from now, we’ll probably be dealing with this on a state level. This will become much more prominent in state electoral races, especially governor’s races.” – Brian Burch, president of CatholicVote

BYE BYE: In other news, Saule Omarova has withdrawn her name for the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Yay!

CANADA: The Canadian province of New Brunswick now allows grocery stores to bar the unvaccinated as part of their so-called COVID “winter plan.” There’s no science or sense behind this draconian measure. Even during the pre-vaxxx pandemic lockdowns, everyone was allowed to go to grocery stores!

COVID-19: Two studies show that melatonin lowers the incidence of severe symptoms. Front Line physicians recommend 6 mg before bed prior to infection boosted to 10 mg if you catch the bug. Ours arrived today.

EFFING BEE: I had a “fact” check slapped on my FB post of the LifeSite article about the Pfizer docs, along with the usual warning about dire consequences for those who persist in publishing false information and no way to dispute or remove the stupid “fact” check. Golly, Miss Molly! Whatever would we do without the “International Fact-Checking Network” keeping us all soooo well informed?

LATINX: “When Latino politicos use the term it is largely to appease white rich progressives. To be clear my office is not allowed to use ‘Latinx’ in official communications.” – Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-AZ.

I want to pronounce it “lat eenx”, but apparently it’s supposed to be pronounced “latin ex.“

LOUDOUN COUNTY: The school district that covered up one sexual assault while facilitating another by the same kid is now demanding $36,000 to respond to a FOIA request for “all communications, including press releases, statements, emails, or other correspondence in any format” in the possession of Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) containing the words “sexual assault” or “rape” from May 1 to Oct. 18, 2021.

NEW YUCK CITY: DeBlasio says that, as of December 27, all private sector employees, including employees of private religious schools, will be required to get vaxxxed. “We’re gonna have some other measures as well, to really focus on maximizing vaccination quickly, so we can get ahead of Omicron and all the other challenges we’re facing right now with COVID.” Not sure where he gets the authority to impose such an invasive rule on anybody and I hope he gets his pants sued off.

NUNES: Congressman Devin Nunes is leaving Congress for the CEO position of former President Donald Trump’s upcoming anti-Big Tech media company.

SCOTUS: On Dec 1, when the Biden team proposed that Roe v. Wade is somehow sacrosanct, Justice Alito asked, “Is it your argument that a case can never be overruled simply because it was egregiously wrong?”

The Biden lawyer responded that the Court could only reverse a long-standing precedent if a state “[came] forward with some kind of materially changed circumstance or some kind of materially new argument.”

Alito quered, “Really? So, suppose Plessy v. Ferguson was re-argued in 1897, so nothing had changed. Would it not be sufficient to say that was an egregiously wrong decision on the day it was handed down and now it should be overruled?”

Biden’s lawyer agreed that Plessy v. Ferguson had been egregiously wrong from the get go and should have been overruled as soon as possible.

Plessy v. Ferguson was the racist 1896 “separate but equal” case that was reversed in 1954 by Brown v. Board of Education.

TOLERANCE: Another woman posted a fiery condemnation of the unvaxxxed on her now-deleted Facebook page in which she shrieked that all of the unvaxxed should be taken out back and shot. She claims to be a teacher who sits on the NEA Board of Directors.

GRAMMY NOTES: The Buzzers are on schedule. Fortunately, they had a little time to spare, since they needed a snow day in Montana. Mama says the scenery has been incredibly beautiful. While we were chatting last night, one of the kids piped up from the back seat, “I want to stand on my feet.” Mama replied, “We all do, sweetie. We’re 30 minutes from the hotel, then we can find a playground.“

JUDGE JEANINE: Jeanine Pirro takes no prisoners in a blistering opening monologue. [7:43]

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: [4:06] – Candace Owens goes off on what a Big Fat Liar he is.

MIRACULOUS: The driver of the squished car not only survived, but only had minor injuries!

PANIC: [11:63] – Politico reports that a Democratic strategist who advises major donors says it’s “too late. We’re f***ed. … Less than a year ahead of midterm elections, in which even Democrats widely expect they will lose the House and, possibly, the Senate, the party is confronting an identity crisis. It isn’t just Biden’s cratering public approval ratings, inflation, or the precedent that the party in power typically loses seats in a president’s first midterm.

“Just one year after Democrats kicked Donald Trump from the White House, it’s not obvious to many voters what Democrats are doing now that they’re in charge. … The ominous development for Democrats is that the infrastructure and social spending policies they’re preparing to run on, despite generally polling favorably, show few signs of helping them at the ballot box.”

SMASH ‘N GRAB: [4:16] – Dan Bongino tears into AOC’s absurd claim that there’s no crime wave. Maybe the reason she is saying this is that all the videos seem to feature perps of color.

ST. NICHOLAS: Bishop Nicholas attended the First Ecumenical Council in Nicaea, where it was determined that Jesus was coeternal with God the Creator. In philosophical terms, Father and Son are “homoousios” – i.e., they share the same substance. Thus, the council rejected Arius’ idea that the Father and Son were not equal. Again, in philosophical terms, Father and Son are merely “homoiousios” – i.e., of a similar substance.

The difference in pronunciation is subtle: homoh-oo-see-ose vs. homoy-oo-see-ose. (The see is pronounced more like a soft zee than a hard ess.)

TALIBAN: After just four months of being in charge, the Taliban has managed to screw up Afghanistan so badly that its chronic malnutrition problem has turned into a mass starvation problem. Aid groups say a million children may die of it this winter.

TAXES: New IRS data shows that former President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cut law benefited working- and middle-class Americans more than the rich.

TRANS: [3:37] – Another ho-um male athlete has suddenly swept his events and broken records by competing against women. What a jerk.

UNVAXXXED: The unvaxxxed must stay outdoors with the rest of the dirty farm animals.

Funny thing tho’ … another totally vaxxxed cruise ship has reported passengers testing positive. None had symptoms, so had no idea they were spreading the virus. It seems pretty obvious to me that the vaxxxed pose more of a risk to unvaxxxed than we do to them.

VIRGINIA: A panel of judges overseeing the recount in a contested Virginia delegate race ruled Republican Karen Greenhalgh the winner. The GOP has gained control of the chamber! May it be the first of many.

GRAMMY NOTES: Sooo … I’ve been racing through my blogging and other chores so I can take SkillShare art classes every day and I am having SO much fun! Also, learning a ton! I’m excited to share the drawing I just did in which I pulled together stuff I’d learned in classes about drawing in general, using watercolor pencils in particular, and making eyes look real.

AMERICAN AIRLINES: If the Birman’s story is true, American Airlines deserves to be hit hard with damages. Click to read the appalling story. I have other questions the article didn’t answer.

For example, the flight was from Miami to Newark, so likely included a meal. Did the couple request kosher, so the flight attendant could have seen they were devout Jews before she assaulted them? Was there any real reason the little bag couldn’t have stayed in the overhead compartment where the man put it in the first place? And if it couldn’t, why wasn’t he allowed to simply hold it during the flight? Is it even legal for an airline to put a diabetic off a flight without ensuring she has her insulin with her?

BIDEN ECONOMY: CLICK https://rumble.com/vq6rbe-real-america-dan-ball-w-rep.-james-comer-november-jobs-report-12321.html [8:59] for Get Real Dan’s report on the weak November report. “The economy is worse now than it was when Biden took office.”

CUOMO: After investigating what the recently-suspended Chris Cuomo did to help his brother, CNN fired him. If they’d fired him back when he demonstrated himself to be a dim-witted, mean-spirited liar, it would’ve saved them a lot of trouble.

FAUXTUS: Despite the best efforts of the Slime Stream Media, Biden’s polls continue to slide downward. The notable change in this most recent one isn’t in the total approval percentage, but in the very high strong disapproval and dwindling no opinion percentages.

GERMANY: Ted Cruz tweeted, “It’s a good thing the virus is larger than a toaster. No way it can make it through those holes.” How do they divide a grocery store at all? Are there now two of everything or do they alternate days? Like, the unvaxxxed can get into the bread section on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, while the vaxxxed get to go there on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Sundays?

I was shopping once with a missionary friend who was home on break. He served in Japan and had a sister living full time in Germany. As we waited amongst the group of people milling around waiting for the next open cashier, he remarked, “If this were Japan, everyone would line themselves up. And if it were Germany, somebody would be running around making us line up.” LOL

Remarkably, the 100-pound boy was able to successfully perform the Heimlich on his 200-pound dad, literally lifting him off the ground twice, and expelling the obstruction from his airway. Aidan learned the technique in school.

VAXXX: The mRNA COVID vaccines have been found to dramatically increase the risk of Acute Coronary Syndrome. This “may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events following vaccination.” –Steven Gundry, MD (International Heart & Lung Institute in California)

Apparently, Twitter’s Fake Checkers are now heart specialists who know more than Dr. Gundry does. On Thursday, they applied a “this link may be unsafe” warning to his report at the American Heart Association Journal. Previously, this warning was reserved for spam and malware.

VFAUXTUS: “Staffers who have worked for Kamala Harris say one of her consistent problems is that she refuses to wade into briefing materials prepared by staff members, then berates employees when she appears unprepared because she wouldn’t do the necessary prep work.” – James Hohmann, Washington Post

“I’m old enough to remember when failing to read your daily briefing materials was considered, by most on the left, conduct that rendered you unfit for office…”

“Remember how the D press loved her questioning in high-profile Senate hearings such as Kavanaugh’s? It was just accusatory snark, nothing involving any complexity or depth. Same with her short-lived presidential campaign. And that’s all she offers as VP.”

“Why is WaPo running negative stories about Harris? That’s the question.”

“Maybe for the same reason reporters keep asking Pete Buttigieg about his plans for 2024.”

ZINC: You have at least 300 enzymes in your body that require zinc to function normally. It is particularly important to your immune system. Evidence shows zinc helps protect the body from viruses like COVID-19 by impairing viral replication in the cell and by supporting the respiratory system.

Zinc deficiency is not uncommon. Fortunately, supplementing is dirt cheap. Since zinc supplementing can cause a copper imbalance, it’s a good idea to add copper to your supplement regimen also. Vitacost has a combo of the two that costs only four and a half cents per day.

If you take a multi-vitamin, check the label. The RDAs for zinc are 11 mg/day for men and 8mg/day for women. For copper, they are 1.5-2 mg/day for adolescent and adult males, 1.5-3 mg/day for adolescent and adult females.

A Praise God Coinky-Dink

On April 19, 2020, Father José Guadalupe Aguilera Murillo of San Isidro Labrador Catholic Church in Querétaro, Mexico broadcasted Mass via livestream. Since the Catholic Church was celebrating the feast of Divine Mercy that Sunday, Fr. Murillo had placed the image in the video’s background. Somehow, the white rays coming from Jesus’ heart appeared to extend out of the frame and across the altar. The phenomenon lasted throughout the video, which you can see at the ChurchPop link.

A commenter pointed out that the rays in front are parallel, suggesting their source was lens flare and that, since they didn’t move throughout Mass, it was probably caused by a bright interior light rather than the sun. He may very well be right. But you know what? I don’t much care. A lens flare during Mass that perfectly aligned with the rays from Jesus’ heart is just as inspiring and “God-incidental miraculous” to me as if there had been no physical explanation.

I took the screenshots above and below myself. The big one above was from before Mass started; the small insert is from the middle. I included the insert because it struck me powerfully the way the lens flare (if that is what it was) appeared to pierce the nun’s body. Jesus told St. Faustina that the white ray represents “the Water which makes souls righteous”, so I also love the way the ray from the painting appears to bend as if flowing like water across the top of the altar.

I searched the Divine Mercy image on-line and found what I believe to be the version in the video. I lined them up so you could see how the possibly-a-lens-flare just happened to line up with the rays on the painting.

A PLAGUE UPON OUR HOUSE: Dr. Scott Atlas writes about his experiences inside the Trump Administration’s COVID response team. He confirms that, far from being our “top infectious disease expert,” Anthony Fauci is an egotistical dimwit whose main skill lies in navigating the government’s health bureaucracy.

CANCEL CULTURE: A pro-abortion researcher discovered that 42% of post-abortive women suffered from depression at more than double the rate of non-abortive women, both childless and mothers. His study also found higher rates of substance abuse, anxiety, and suicidal behavior in women who had undergone abortions. Four scientific journals refused to publish the study. The researcher said it was extraordinary to be rejected at all. “We normally get accepted the first time.”

CATHOLIC: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=600159364635598 [5:41] to dispel the myth that Catholics are sun worshipers. I also want to point out that when the priest in our parish church raises the host, he’s facing west.

FAUXTUS: Satan has a vicious sense of humor, so I’m thinking that when Joe sold his soul, he forgot to say he wanted to be a good president.

GERMANY: The descendants of the Nazis are cracking down. Masks will be required in classrooms. The unvaxxxed will be barred from nonessential stores and cultural and recreational venues. Even the vaxxed are not going to get off scot-free; after nine months, they’ll lose their vaxxxed status unless they get a booster. Meanwhile, a WHO official says there’s no evidence that mass boosters will make any difference.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=232171665663719 [3:57] to hear David Harris Jr.’s excellent rants. Stay tuned for the second half of his rant at the end. It’s worth the wait.

While I empathize with Harris’ anger, I must repeat (again) how much I hate the very idea of a “hate crime.” EVERY crime is a hate crime to some degree. Hate crime laws are an insult to our justice system, because they criminalize thoughts and intentions. Crimes are about actions. Thoughts and intentions can come into play during a trial and they certainly should influence sentencing. But they should not be made illegal. Not ever.

MANDATES: On Tuesday, a federal judge issued a nationwide injunction blocking Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for health care workers! The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services immediately announced it was suspending enforcement of the mandate.

OMICRON: The WHO is calling it a “super mild variant” to which NO deaths have been linked. CLICK https://rumble.com/vq56oi-who-calls-omicron-super-mild-variant-no-spikes-in-covid-death-rates.html [7:06] for OAN’s scathing report.

The variant has been detected in 38 countries, including the U.S. where it has been found in 11 states. Over half of the confirmed U.S. cases have been among the vaxxxed.

PFIZER: The FDA has made public the first batch of documents it used to authorize Pfizer’s COVID shots, including a report detailing over 150,000 serious adverse events and more than 1,200 deaths connected to the jabs.

SCOTUS: On Wednesday, Chief Justice John Roberts noted that the 15-week mark, at which abortions are banned in the Mississippi law at issue in Dobbs, is not only “not a dramatic departure from viability,” but also a “standard that the vast majority of other countries have.”

Most of the 59 countries in the world that permit elective abortion limit it to before 12 weeks’ gestation, while some go to 15 weeks. Only six countries other than the U.S. allow elective abortion until viability. These include China, North Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, The Netherlands, and Canada.

SHUT IT DOWN: CLICK https://rumble.com/vq6bok-mtg-goes-off-this-government-should-be-shut-down.html [:45] to hear an excellent rant from MTG.

VAXXX: A comment on this FB post says, “One of our 2nd grade girls passed 3 days ago in her sleep.” We’re destroying our children’s lives, supposedly to protect them from a virus that poses nearly zero risk. What’s the real agenda?

VIOLENCE: [8:23] – Anti-God Progs are behind the soft-on-crime and defund the police movements. “Ecstatic and howling with glee” … that sounds like a demonic infestation. I recently watched an interview with one of the Catholic Church’s official exorcist. He said he has been incredibly busy lately.

GRAMMY NOTES: I’m having so much fun with my free month of SkillShare! This is some of my homework from classes on lettering, cartooning, and drawing caricatures.

Bits & Bytes

AOC: [13:00] – Guy Benson dismantles AOC’s latest Kavanaugh smear. He makes an important point I haven’t heard before, which is that the baseless sexual smears during his nomination period were calculated to allow them to do exactly what AOC just did.

CNN: Video from November 2020 [3:46] – CNN’s John Avlon has his panties in a bunch over conservative comparisons of Dr. Anthony Fauci to Nazi doctor Josef Mengele and Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini. What a hypocrite! CNN has repeatedly compared Trump to Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Nazi collaborators, and Nazi sympathizers.

FAUXTUS: He won’t visit, because he doesn’t know the victims? Oh. But wait, it’s okay because his “heart goes out” to them. No, Joe. Your heart can’t go out to anyone, because you don’t have one.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2131374687011198 [14:56] to hear Tucker absolutely shred the fake victim, his indulgent media, and the Dems who still don’t want to admit they were suckered. If convicted of the felonies for which he is now on trial, he faces up to three years in prison. Gag warning: There are clips of JS’s weepy interview which I absolutely can not watch again.

LIFE: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=453163192836390 [3:34] to hear Matt Walsh explain the difference between a logical personhood argument and an arbitrary one.

NOMINEE: CLICK https://twitter.com/SenTedCruz/status/1466147727973171207 [2:17] to hear Sen. Cruz question Dale Ho, who has been nominated for a seat on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. This court hears cases for Manhattan, Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, and Sullivan counties.

PROJECT MUCH: “When it comes to the reality of pregnancy, it’s almost like they [conservatives] don’t want to see that part. They just want to see the fun in the bed. Not the second part.” – Joy Behar

“That literally describes the attitude of most feminists, not conservatives.” – LifeNews.com

RED PILLED: CLICK https://rumble.com/vq48ja-d.c.-mayors-ex-spokesman-biden-turned-me-into-a-republican.html [3:23] to hear a former spokesperson for D.C. Mayor Bowser explain why he has switched parties.

SCOTUS: Dear Lord, Grant the justices all the courage and wisdom they need to do Your will in this case. Amen.

CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=942953426325039 [18:38] to hear Michael Knowles review the arguments presented by both sides in the current threat to Roe vs. Wade.

One choice moment Knowles doesn’t cover was when U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar, representing Biden’s administration, said that overturning [Roe v Wade] would be an “unprecedented contraction” of individual rights.

“The court has never revoked a right that is so fundamental to so many Americans and so central to their ability to participate fully and equally in society,” Prelogar said.

Uhhhhhhh … even I know about Dred Scott and I didn’t even go to law school.

SLAVERY: Marco Rubio put an amendment into the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would ban Chinese imports made with Uyghur-slave labor. The NDAA authorizes the Pentagon’s yearly budget and its activities.

If one were still as naive as some of us were just a year ago, one might suppose this would be a no-brainer YES vote for Dems who hate slavery soooo much that they’re demanding reparation payments for people who were not slaves themselves, but merely descended from slaves.

But no. Chuckie Schmucker is totes annoyed, claiming the amendment is a “poison pill” that is holding up the must-pass defense legislation. Hmmm … it seems to me that it wouldn’t be holding up the legislation if the Dems hadn’t sold their souls to the ChiComs, who would be very upset if it passed.

STACEY ABRAMS: CLICK https://twitter.com/mattdizwhitlock/status/1466622389542866944 [:58] to roll tape on that Big Fat Lie.

TOXIC MASCULINITY: “Yes, we’re really not hearing enough from the deadbeat dad perspective.” – Lyman Stone

“Maybe cause broadcasting you’d rather kill a kid than take responsibility isn’t something a lot of people want to do.” – Marilyn Maupin

“I agree. Pitiful, weak, effeminate men who would rather have their children killed than man up and take responsibility for their actions should absolutely advertise that fact to the world. Makes it easier for women to avoid you in the future.” – Matt Walsh

TWITTER: [9:34] – If Congress was doing its job, these “platforms” would be relabeled “publishers” so they could be sued accordingly.

VAXXX: Senator Ron Johnson hosted a panel discussion with doctors and medical researchers who have treated COVID-19 vaccine injuries and are researching the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and patients who have experienced adverse events due to the COVID-19 vaccine. They covered the importance of early treatment and of American’s health care freedom and recognizing natural immunity, the impacts of mandates on the American workforce and the economy, and the lack of transparency from federal health agencies in response to his COVID-19 oversight requests.

It’s more than 3 hours long, but if you’re interested, it’s posted here: https://www.bitchute.com/video/FivK5lzEMNTR/

VFAUXTUS: Harris is rumored to be a witch with a capital B, which may account for the recent rush among her staffers to leave her employ.

ALEC BALDWIN: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1560708637642848 [1:09] to hear what appears to be the defense he and his lawyers cooked up. Before you believe him, remember that he is an A-list actor who has been nominated many, many times for acting awards and won a bunch of them. I’m guessing he is even more skilled at telling lies convincingly than Jussie Smollett who, you may recall, cried big ol’ crocodile tears about the night he claimed Trump supporters mugged him.

BIDEN ECONOMY: CLICK https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1466457166727069697 [:14] to hear VFAUXTUS make a very puzzling remark. Does she even realize her people created this mess? Or is she campaigning to get Slow Joe retired sooner rather than later?

BORDER: During the seven days from Oct. 27 through Nov. 2, 22,651 illegal aliens from 40 countries were apprehended in Texas near the U.S.–Mexico border. Among the poor migrants seeking a better life in our horribly racist country have been 48 fugitives, 13 gang members, drug mules toting more than 4,000 pounds of marijuana, 669 pounds of methamphetamine, and 87 pounds of cocaine. Also confiscated were 27 handguns, three long guns, and more than $188,000 in cash. Such numbers are no longer unusual.

GREECE: This one is making my blood run cold – Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis just announced mandatory COVID-19 vaccination for ALL Greeks above 60 years of age. Starting January 16, those who DARE to refuse the jab will have to pay a 100 euro fine ($114 USD) every month. Please, God, don’t let this give FAUXTUS any ideas!!

HEALTH CARE: A thoughtful article about why healthcare professionals have been largely silent.

When I was hospitalized last month, some of the nurses spoke with me openly, but privately about their deep-seated anger over the vaxxx mandates. One said she had caved and gotten the jab the week before. One said she was quitting when the deadline hit. A third said she was a full-time floater who routinely moved around; she was going to move to states that weren’t enforcing the mandate.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT: The trial for former “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett on charges that he faked a hate crime in Chicago began this week. Click the links to read what the brothers he hired to do the job have testified.

LIAR IN CHIEF: CLICK https://twitter.com/ArthurSchwartz/status/1466480101860810757 [:34] to hear Slow Joe confabulate again.

OMICRON: The South African doctor who first identified the new variant says that so far they’re only seeing mild to moderate cases that don’t need hospitalization. The predominant symptoms seem to be fatigue that lasts a day or two, scratchy throat, body aches and pain. Apart from the scratchy throat, that list describes my day-to-day life!

I really want us to catch this variant so we can get natural immunity to the rest of them. And the news is positive. A Minnesota man has been confirmed as having caught and recovered from the Omicron variant. He reportedly only had mild symptoms, which began on Nov. 22, before South Africa notified the world and got travel banned for their trouble. The man’s only recent travel was to New York City for a vaxxxed-only convention.

OXFORD HIGH SHOOTING: From DC Draino – “Meet Tate Myre. He gave his life yesterday to save his classmates at the Oxford High School shooting. He was shot in an attempt to disarm the gunman, and died on the way to the hospital in a patrol car. He died a hero. I don’t want to know anything about the shooter. Let Tate be the story.”

PANDEMIA: Alex Berenson went to Yale and used to work for the New York Times where he covered the drug industry and financial fraud. He’s been tracking the facts about COVID-19 from the beginning. He’s also been fighting repeated censorship for reporting these facts which are now compiled into book form.

PSAKI: I’m sorry about posting yet another clip of this awful woman, but dayum! CLICK https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1466445434260439043 [:16] … or just take my word for it that she blames mass looting on COVID.

SCOTUS: A pro-abortion attorney told the court that “the burden of parenthood is an obstacle to women’s success.” One of the women on the court, Amy Coney Barrett, is the mother of seven. I can’t bring myself to read and report on the case. I care too much, so I’m spending my time in prayer. If you want to read …

GRAMMY NOTES: This reminds me of when my firstborn was a toddler who was obsessed with her toy phone. My kitchen timer rang and she went tearing into the living room where her toy phone sat on her toy piano, snatched up the headset and said, “Hello?! Hello?!” I laughed so hard. I still laugh, because she is now a 40-something mom who is still obsessed with her phone LOL.
