BALTIMORE: CLICK https://twitter.com/BNONews/status/1772515766929097088 [:23] to see Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse after a large container ship crashed into it. Nobody knows how many people were on the bridge when it collapsed. CLICK https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/live-blog/rcna145049 to see a news report and more photos.

FACEBOOK: Somebody at the Effing Bee has a serious bug up their butts about Jesus.

PERVERT: Yet another drag queen who performs for children has been arrested and charged with sexually abusing children.

In 2011, Dwight Evan Chisolm was convicted for sexual assault of a child, sentenced to three years in prison, and placed on Wisconsin’s child sex offender list. In 2019, he was arrested again and charged with child enticement and sexual intercourse with a minor he met online. In 2023, he was arrested again after police discovered he was teaching children at a local dance studio, which is forbidden by the terms of his registry. At that time, he was also charged with two counts of bail jumping.

This time, Chisolm, who goes by Sno Wight, has been charged with three counts of sexual contact of a minor, as well as five counts of exposing his genitals to a child. Funny thing … his TikTok account is suddenly blank. The mrctv link below says Chisolm is now 27, which means his first arrest happened when he was only 14 years old.

PETRINE CROSS: The upside down cross is a symbol of St. Peter’s humility and love for Jesus. When he was sentenced to die for refusing to worship the Roman emperor, he requested to be crucified upside down, saying he was unworthy to die in the same manner as the Son of God. Because of its association with the man Catholics count as the first pope, it is also a symbol of the papacy.

PLANET FITNESS: Apparently, losing $400 million in value in one week didn’t alter this company’s policy one iota. They have reportedly assigned a staffer to accompany this man so he can safely and comfortably enter the women’s locker room. IOW, they’re prioritizing one mentally ill man’s delusions over the safety and comfort of every female member.

PRO-ABORT: In 2019, actress Alyssa Milano talked publicly about her two abortions, saying she chose not to give birth, because she wanted to focus on her budding film career, not become a mother.

“It was my choice and it was absolutely the right choice for me. … I had done what I knew to do to prevent pregnancy and was still pregnant.” Far from having regrets, she crows, “My life would be completely lacking all its great joys” if she had not murdered her first two babies.

TIKTOK: CLICK https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1771697301410459947?s=20 [1:23] to see the kind of content that confused kids can find on the ChiCom’s social media site. This woman is telling kids that she feels “f***ing awesome” taking testosterone injections. Click the links below to read about the side effects people can experience while taking this powerful hormone.

TOTALITARIANISM: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1534260804097453 to hear a quick message from Jordan Peterson. I believe this is the level of control that is described in the Book of Revelation.

CLICK https://europeanconservative.com/articles/commentary/cruelty-cloaked-in-compassion/ to read a thoughtful essay about the totalitarian tyranny of trans policies by Jonathan Van Maren. “It is cruel to demand that women accept their own demotion and dehumanization to avoid offending the cross-dressers in charge.”

VAXXX: A study entitled “Evaluation of Febrile Seizure Risk Following Ancestral Monovalent COVID-19 mRNA Vaccination Among U.S. Children Aged 2-5 Years” found an elevated incidence of febrile seizures in the 24 hours following vaccination.

From WebMD: “About 32% of kids who’ve had a febrile seizure will get another within a year or two. Children who are younger than 15 months when they have the first one are more likely to have a repeat. … Having febrile seizures … raises your child’s chances (2%) of eventually getting epilepsy.”

TRUMP: A New York Supreme Court appeals judge has reduced Trump’s bond from $454 million to $175 million, but says he must produce the money within the next 10 days. The ruling came just before New York Attorney General Letitia James was expected to start seizing Trump’s property.

GRAMMY NOTES: I am very pleased to announce that I am done with my Gastro appointments! All is well, so no ‘oscopies until I come due for my next routine one in 4 years … or if I have a problem. But this time, if I have a problem, I’ve also got a great relationship with the office, which is yuge for me. I have a lot of “new doctor” anxiety!

2A: Biden’s DOJ just launched another unconstitutional gun grab. Disarming people who pose an extreme risk to themselves or others sounds like a worthy goal, but you know it won’t be applied to elites like Hunter Biden or their bffs in the cartels. It’ll be applied to “bitter” Republicans in flyover states who, according to Democrats like Barack Obama, “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

COVID-19: CLICK the link to read “Four years on, COVID damage remains while Fauci & Co. pay no price” by Glenn H. Reynolds. I only want to add two thoughts.

One, I’m not embarrassed to have jumped on the shutdown wagon. Like he said, it seemed right at the time. It was only when I saw the media twisting Trump’s words and then esteemed physicians get censored and even fired that I realized we were not in a public health war against a deadly virus; we were being conned by politicians with a globalist agenda.

Two, and far more important, the evil people who did all of this to us will be brought to justice. I doubt it will be in this life, but I am assured by my faith in Jesus Christ that it will be full and fair.

FLUOROQUINOLONES: Fluoroquinolones are a class of antibiotic drugs that received FDA approved in 1980. They disrupt bacterial DNA replication and stop bacterial growth. They can also disrupt critical enzymes and harm mitochondria, triggering a whole host of devastating side effects.

HYPOCRISY: New York AG Letitia James has been making big political waves in her efforts to destroy Donald Trump for allegedly overvaluing his property to obtain a mortgage. Note please that Trump repaid the loan. And now we learn that one of her political allies, a man who overvalued a building to obtain a mortgage, has defaulted on the loan. Funny thing how James has no interest in punishing him.

QUIET ON SET: “The first episodes of a new documentary series exposing the inner workings of Nickelodeon — the children’s network that most people my age grew up watching in the 90s and early 2000s — called Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV, just premiered. It’s worth watching because it’s one of the few well-researched, effectively produced looks into how the entertainment industry abuses children.”

CLICK below if you care to read more. I read some of it. My stomach is churning as I thank God we raised our girls without a television.

STUMPS: [8:02] – Things I never knew before today. 🙂

GRAMMY NOTES: My 5th grade grandson told me they would be doing a unit on keyboarding during the spring semester. In my day, we called it typing. I still call it typing. I feel a little old-ish. BUT … I do not care that I’m turning 70 in six weeks or that I thought my parents were antiques when they turned 50. I am NOT YET ACTUALLY OLD.

GET WOKE, GO BROKE: On March 16, I posted about a Planet Fitness member who complained about this man shaving in the women’s bathroom; they canceled her membership. From the time she posted the photo above to the internet, Planet Fitness’s stock price has dropped roughly 15%.

ACID REFLUX: [2:26] – I am finding alginate therapy to be far superior to antacids for stopping the burn. The only problems with it are the cost, which is higher per use than something like TUMS, and that you have to stay upright for an hour or so after taking it so that the gel raft stays in the upper part of the stomach. But IMO, it’s well worth the $$ and the small trouble, because it works without reducing the stomach acid you need to properly digest your food. There are more and more brands coming on the market. The two I have tried and can recommend for both effectiveness and flavor are Reflex Gourmet Rescue and Life Extension Esophageal Guardian. The first is a thick gel you can lick off a spoon. The mint chocolate flavor is delicious. The latter is a berry-flavored chewable that is also delicious.

ALABAMA: Effective October 1, 2024, state agencies, local boards of education, and institutions of higher education in Alabama are banned from sponsoring offices, programs, or curricula that promote divisive concepts about race, color, religion, sex, ethnicity, or national origin.

BORDERS: The Dominican Republican is busy proving that walls work. CLICK https://twitter.com/unlimited_ls/status/1770100915183198277 [:46] to hear the story.

BUSTING the NARRATIVE: [5:01] – If you’ve heard anything about Trump’s “bloodbath,” watch this. Funny how these self-righteous Democrats had no problem with those “mostly peaceful protests” in 2020.

INDIANA: Earlier this month, Cameron Blasek, a student at East Central High School in St. Leon, Indiana, drove to school with an American flag on the back of his truck. He was called into the office and ordered to remove it. He said no, citing both the flag code and the school handbook.

After hearing what happened, nearly 2 dozen other students flew American flags on their vehicles and the principal caved. After hearing the story, some business owners got together and gave Cameron’s truck a custom paint job!

MORMONISM: [8:41] – I’m curious if this version of Mormon teaching is correct. If so, it strikes me that Scientology’s founder, L. Ron Hubbard, is kind of a latter-day Joseph Smith.

NEWS: There is just way too much crap going on. In a bid to avoid destroying my tenuous hold on my emotional well-being, I refer you to Not the Bee.

VAXXX: On March 19, 2024, a paper entitled “Stroke Risk After COVID-19 Bivalent Vaccination Among US Older Adults” was published in JAMA. In it, researchers reported that adults (65 and older) who get a COVID-19 bivalent jab and a flu jab at the same time have a higher risk of suffering a stroke in the weeks following than those who got just one or the other.

GRAMMY NOTES: After giving my life to Jesus, I church shopped for six months. Nowhere felt like “home“, so I went to a Catholic Tabernacle Chapel and prayed, “Please show me which church YOU want me to join!” I felt hands on the sides of my head gently turned my face slightly so that I was looking directly at the Tabernacle and a voice said, “What do you believe is in that box?” I suddenly realized that I had not a single doubt that the Holy Eucharist is the true Body of Christ. After that, it was easy. I think of myself as a Cradle Catholic who got Born Again and, by God’s grace, became a Genuine Catholic.

BORDER: The Supreme Court has removed a lower court’s stay on Texas’ state law SB4, which allows the arrest and deportation of illegals.

CATHOLIC: I’m also a huge fan of asking my guardian angel for help. Mama Buzz called this evening and vented at length about something the family had misplaced and really needed. Nobody could remember who had had it last or where it had ended up and searching was getting them nowhere.

I asked her to close her eyes and wait until she saw something in her mind. Then I prayed, “L’s guardian angel and my guardian angel, please find what they need and show them where it is.” Then, I said a Hail Mary and a Glory Be. At the Amen, I suddenly felt very giggly and offered thanks for the answered prayer. At that moment, her husband hollered from the other end of the house, “FOUND IT!” 🙂

COVID-19: The 2023 excess mortality numbers are in. They show a strong positive correlation with COVID vaccination rates. If the vaxxx had ever been truly and effective, excess mortalities would be higher among those who did not get the jabs. Instead, they are lower.

TRANS: [First 18 minutes] – Candace Owens tells the story of what the so-called “Father of the Trans Movement” did to destroy an entire family in his quest to validate his evil theories about sex and gender.

HAITI: While the U.S. Embassy in Haiti futzes around organizing a charter flight to get Americans out of the failed Caribbean state, Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL-7) has already pulled off two rescue flights.

HELL is REAL: [8:35] – While I think this video is well worth your time, I do want to add one thought. The fact that judgment is both instantaneous and timeless is paradoxical. I believe that, in the timeless instant after physical death, there is room for repentance and purgation. But I’m Catholic, so what do I know, right? ; -)

TRANS REGRET: The above is a portion of an interview about which Candace Owens said, “I can say honestly that I’ve never been more proud or more haunted by any interview I’ve ever conducted than this one here.

Thank you Briana for your bravery in this most difficult and personal conversation.” The full interview is @ CandaceOwensPodcast: “The Shocking Truth About Trans Surgery: Briana Ivy’s Story” [1:16:27].

CATHOLIC: Hong Kong has a new law requiring priests to violate the Seal of Confession if they hear a person confess a “crime of treason.” The spiritual consequences of such a violation are far more severe than any worldly government can impose. It seems likely that priests will go into hiding to continue their ministry.

FACEBOOK: Meta sells ad after ad after ad to Chinese scammers posing as disabled American veterans. Complaining doesn’t get them to taken down the ads; it gets them to take down your attempts to expose the scams!

FAUXTUS: During a speech in Milwaukee this week, Dementia Joe bragged, “We have among the lowest inflation rates of any country in America.”

LEFTIES: The Fitzwilliam Museum, owned by the University of Cambridge, has installed signage warning visitors about the dangers of enjoying landscape paintings.

“Paintings showing rolling English hills or lush French fields reinforced loyalty and pride towards a homeland. The darker side of evoking this nationalist feeling is the implication that only those with a historical tie to the land have a right to belong.”

MARIJUANA: A study entitled “Association of Cannabis Use With Cardiovascular Outcomes Among US Adults” was recently published in the Journal of the American Heart Association. In it, researchers report on their analysis of data from over 434,000 patients aged 18 to 74, collected between 2016 and 2020 from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey.

Previous research has linked marijuana use to an increase in heart disease, but the findings were often dismissed because many of the participants also smoked tobacco, which has long been linked to various cardiovascular issues. Noting that cannabis smoke is similar to tobacco smoke, except the one contains THC while the other contains nicotine. Isolating those who did not use nicotine in any form, the study found that marijuana use increased the incidence of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes. Even one joint per week increased the risks by 3%. Daily use increased the risks by 25% for heart attack and 42% for stroke.

PLANET FITNESS: A woman who complained about a man shaving in an Alaska Planet Fitness women’s locker room with a 12-year-old present has had her membership revoked. According to commenters, this is now a corporate policy. And it is costing them customers as people resign in protest.

SCOTUS: The Supremes have ruled unanimously that when public officials post on social media about their work, they are acting on behalf of the government and may not block anybody. But when they post on their personal accounts about unrelated matters, they can.

WOMEN’S SPORTS: The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, accuses the NCAA and several Georgia universities of violating Title IX, as well as the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment. It goes on to accuse the NCAA of attempting to chill the free speech of athletes through speech codes.

GRAMMY NOTES: I got a glimpse into why God sometimes seems so distant when I had to stand back and watch my kids deal with challenges. I got into quite an argument with childless female relatives once, when I told them to stop helping my cocky toddler down the two carpeted steps into the carpeted den.

One of the ladies snarled, “You act like you WANT her to fall.” I explained that I had gone to considerable trouble to teach her to crawl backwards down stairs. They were holding her hand and helping her walk down frontwards on her feet and I could see on her face that she had no idea how much she needed that help.

I pointed to the two carpeted steps and responded, “I would rather she tumble down those and realize she isn’t ready than [pointing to the long stairs to the 2nd floor and the concrete steps to the front walk] slip away from us and try walking down those on her feet.” She turned white and all the ladies stopped helping.

Chairman Barry Loudermilk (GA-11) stated: “The American people deserve the entire truth about what caused the violent breach at the United States Capitol of January 6, 2021. It is unfortunate the Select Committee succumbed to their political inclinations and chased false narratives instead of providing the important work of a genuine investigation. In my committee’s investigation, it is my objective to uncover the facts about January 6, without political bias or spin. My report today is just the beginning.”
