BANK FAILURE: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=767601088037743 to hear a brief and enraging explanation of what’s going on. It’s kinda like Lockdown 2.0 when ginormous companies like Amazon made big bucks while small businesses crashed and burned. It’s just more of the same destruction of the middle class in service of enriching the elites.
DIGITAL CURRENCY: On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced that, in July, it will launch its new centralized digital currency. The infrastructure, called FedNow, will link each banking node directly to the Federal Reserve and enable them to offer instantly available funds in real-time payments to their customers.
TICKS: The northeast is seeing an increase in tick-borne babesiosis. Residents of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont need to be on the lookout and know what to do if they get bitten. This parasite, which infects red blood cells, is spread by the same deer ticks that spread Lyme disease.
VITAMIN D: A ten-year Canadian study showed that supplementing with this critical vitamin provides a 40% protective effect against dementia. “This is a massive benefit we are seeing,” says Dr. John Campbell.
An American study showed that vitamin D supplementation reduced COVID-19 infection by 20% to 28% and, among those that caught it, decreased mortality by 25% to 33%.
GRAMMY NOTES: Bunny graduated from serving at daily Mass to serving on Sundays; now Buzz is training. In other news, Bootz lost his seventh tooth on his seventh birthday.
BIDEN CRIME FAMILY: In 2017, right after VP Biden left office, the ChiComs sent $3 million to Rob Walker, a business associate of Hunter Biden. Over the next few months, Walker wired more than $1 million of it to Joe’s son (Hunter), Joe’s brother (Jim), and Joe’s daughter-in-law (Beau’s widow, Hallie). The White House did not deny the transfers took place, but did complain that Republicans are big, fat, meanie-pants for picking on Beau’s widow.
BIG BROTHER: Contracts obtained by The Epoch Times reveal that, in 2021, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) spent $628,000 of our money purchasing location data on approximately 55 million cellphone users. They apparently used it to track lockdown mandate compliance.
Also, the Twitter Files have revealed that the CDC spent its time and our money in tracking (and likely curbing) social media posts that could have contributed to vaccine hesitancy. These posts included those containing factual information detrimental to the government’s efforts to jab every American, those containing negative opinions about the Democratic Party, and those containing obvious satire.
FUTURE IS FEMALE: Some of the responses – “These are not people I want my daughters dating”, “Barf”, “No”, and “I remember when this happened. It’s some tech company’s forced diversity virtue signal. You can just look at the number of women on their team to see their actual beliefs on the subject.”
POST-ABORTIVE TESTIMONY: [4:34] – Pro-aborts don’t want to admit how devastated many women are after this supposedly simple, no biggie surgery. But about 45% of women who have had an abortion report having suicidal feelings immediately following their procedure and are 70% more likely to self-harm at some point.
Post-abortive adults are three times more likely to commit suicide than non-abortive peers, while post-abortive teens are ten times more likely to attempt suicide and four times more likely to succeed than non-abortive peers. Post-abortive women are 34% more likely to develop an anxiety disorder and 110% more likely to abuse alcohol.
UTAH: Republican Gov. Spencer Cox has signed legislation that will restrict chemical and surgical abortions to hospitals alone and by physicians alone.
WOKE: [5:15] – Enforcing political orthodoxy. Meanwhile, could we actually educate our kids!?!? CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/siEF8YnbJ3o to see stuff that is so awful, you wish it were satire.
ARKANSAS: On Monday, Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders signed a law extending the malpractice lawsuit deadline for minors who were subjected to chemical and/or surgical “care” for gender dysphoria. The deadline in most cases is two years after the fact; the new law extends this to 15 years after the minor patient’s 18th birthday.
CANADA: The Calgary City Council bypassed its own committee and public consultation process to enact a new bylaw with a 10-5 vote. Under the new ordinance, citizens who protest LGBTQ events within 100-meters of any city-owned or city-affiliated public building faces arrest, fines of up to $10,000, and one year in jail.
CATHOLIC: [3:13] – The bishops of the RCC in Germany have voted to bless sinful same-sex “marriages.” God and the Church can bless individuals, including homosexuals, but it cannot bless sin.
CLIMATE: In 1971, Dr. S. I. Rasool, a professor of atmospheric science at Columbia University, warned that global cooling would bring on “a disastrous new ice age” in “as little as 50 or 60 years.”
Then, in 2018, James Anderson, a professor of atmospheric chemistry at Harvard University, warned that global warming would cause a catastrophic rise in global temperatures. “The chance that there will be any permanent ice left in the Arctic after 2022 is essentially zero,” Anderson said.
So, it’s past 2022 and, unlike Greta’s tweet, the polar ice caps have not disappeared. Nor have they grown exponentially to cover vast areas of the globe. Imagine that.
HR: CLICK https://twitter.com/itsNTBmedia/status/1635747671632691200 to hear what we are all thinking said out loud. Her comments are in response to a survey done by business.com that compared responses to resumes with and without they/them pronouns. He/him and she/her were not tested, but I’d be surprised if they didn’t also show some employer bias.
LOCKDOWNS: Tucker gives us the “bank crisis for dummies” I was hoping for. [15:14] – The pandemic lockdowns created the greatest wealth transfer in history. The rich got richer and the poor got poorer. IMO, that was the whole point.
TAIWAN: The government’s National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) has paid NT$ 3.5 million (113,932 USD) to the family of a girl aged “five to 11, who died of fulminant myocarditis after receiving her second shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.”
TRANS: FAUXTUS says we should have a federal law banning states from banning trans drugs and surgeries for minors. In his opinion, denying minors the right to make life-altering decisions is “cruel” and “close to sinful.”
BANKING CRISIS: I wasn’t going to mention this until somebody smarter than me made a video for dummies. But then I saw that FAUXTUS assured us on Monday, “Our banking system is safe. Your deposits are safe.” Frankly, that scares me.
BARIC: You’d think that Professor Ralph Baric, the world’s leading authority on the exact type of virus that shut the world down, would be a household name. Not only has he essentially been invisible, but on November 23, 2022, Dr. Fauci said, under oath, that he didn’t know the guy. Yet his own calendar shows he had a one-on-one meeting with Baric on Feb. 11, 2020, during which they talked about the outbreak and the highly-contagious-to-humans, chimera bat coronaviruses that Baric himself had helped to bio-engineer with gain-of-function research.
This research was reported in a 2015 paper entitled A SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence. One of the other authors was Zhengli-Li Shi at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The paper describes how they had successfully attached the spike from bat coronavirus SHC014 to a SARS-CoV backbone and produced a chimera virus that efficiently replicated in human airway cells at levels similar to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV-1.
On second thought, we probably shouldn’t be at all surprised that Baric has been kept out of sight …
CATHOLIC: An attack on Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Ledyard, CT, last week-end marked the 300th such incident of anti-Catholic vandalism in the United States since the spring of 2020. Some are relatively minor, such as spray painted pro-abortion messages on the outside. Others have done enough damage to force churches to close for repairs. In three cases, historic churches have been burned to the ground. The 300 cases are all political or spiritual; CatholicVote’s tracker does not list simple acts of burglary, such as thefts of cash donation boxes.
COVID-19: Congress has passed a bill to declassify all U.S. intelligence information on the origins of COVID-19. It sailed through both houses with unanimous consent. Biden hasn’t said if he’ll sign it, but there is a lot of pressure on him to do so.
DRAG: On March 3, Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove, California, held a multicultural assembly during which a group of teens performed a school-sanctioned youth drag performance (embedded at the Libs of TikTok link below). The assembly took place during school hours and was mandatory for all students to attend; parents were not informed in advance and many of them are not happy.
I chose the 13-year-old video above for this byte as a compare and contrast piece for the recent high school drag performance. In both videos, high school boys dressed in short skirts and wigs dance and lip synch to recorded music. In one, the boys perform well rehearsed, often funny moves for a willing audience that cheers wildly at the end; in the other, the boys perform poorly choreographed and amateurish moves before a captive audience that is distinctly underwhelmed at the end. There’s a lot to be sad about here, not least of which that, these days, the performance above would be banned as culturally insensitive, homophobic, transphobic, and probably racist too.
EXORCIST FILES: Case #3 – Episodes 6 & 7 explore the controversy and fascination of the Ouija Board and why it is so dangerous.
FANTASY LAND: Electricity is up 11.9%, fuel oil is up 27.7%, and natural gas is up 26.7% over last year. This is what our Democrat leaders want us to believe about this:
“I took the most aggressive action ever — in all of history in any country — to take on the climate crisis by lowering your home energy bills.” – FAUXTUS Joe Biden
“For working families, we have reduced heating and electricity bills so folks have more money in their pockets to buy things like schools supplies, replace the dishwasher, or take a family vacation.” – VFAUXTUS Kamala Harris
Biden’s work to “provide cost relief in areas like energy” has “made a meaningful difference for American families.” – Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen
J6: “Between video recordings, witness testimony, court filings, and news reporting, the undeniable truth about January 6 cannot be willfully wished away even by the most skilled spinmeisters.” CLICK the link for a handy timeline of what we know.
JUSTICE FOR ALL: Many of the people charged with breaching the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, were denied bail and forced to live behind bars for months while awaiting their trials. They began a tradition of singing the national anthem every night at 9:00 p.m.
A couple of weeks ago, they recorded themselves using a jailhouse phone. Meanwhile, Trump recorded himself reciting the Pledge of Allegiance at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida. The collaborative result, called “Justice for All”, is available on vinyl at the J6 Prison Choir link below or for $1.29 at iTunes and Amazon.
As of Friday, the recording had hit #1 at iTunes. Let’s help keep it there for a while; the money raised will help J6 families in need.
PROJECT FEAR: The Telegraph has obtained WhatsApp text messages between then UK Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, and his team of public health officials that reveal a deliberate effort to keep the public too scared to leave their homes.
In one, Hancock speculated that a new strain of the ‘rona would be helpful in preparing the ground for another lockdown. A month later, he said he wanted to “deploy” a new Covid variant to “frighten the pants off” the public and ensure they complied with lockdown. His colleague, Cabinet Secretary Simon Case, agreed wholeheartedly saying that “the fear/ guilt factor” was “vital” in “ramping up the messaging” during the third national lockdown in Jan 2021. “Yep that’s what will get proper bahviour [sic] change,” wrote Poole.
SMOLLETT: Remember back when the Wrongs desperately wanted us to believe that two racist, homophobic white guys wearing MAGA hats hung around the streets of Chicago at 2 a.m. during a polar vortex, carrying a piece of clothesline and a hot sauce bottle containing bleach, just hoping to encounter a black gay guy they could beat on? Yeah. Me also.
The two black guys that Smollett hired to fake the attack have spoken out. CLICK https://twitter.com/RitaPanahi/status/1635752842115051520 [2:53] to see them re-enact the crime. One explains that the wound on Jussie’s face was the result of him giving him a “noogie” because Jussie wanted to look like he took a beating without actually getting hit.
TRANS: In 1975, Dr. Susan Bradley, a Canadian psychiatrist, started a pediatric gender clinic in which she offered a therapy-focused approach; in 2000, the clinic began prescribing puberty blockers. Bradley, who is now in her early eighties, says she now regrets the latter choice. Over time, most of her therapy-only patients outgrew their gender dysphoria and accepted their born sex. Not so the ones who were given drugs to supposedly alleviate their distress. She says that, in addition to the many serious physical side effects, the drugs may actually cement dysphoria the kids would otherwise outgrow.
CATHOLIC EDUCATION: Satan is making great progress!
The board of trustees at Marymount University recently voted unanimously (20-0) to eliminate bachelor’s degree majors for theology and religious studies, philosophy, mathematics, art, history, sociology, english, economics, as well as the master’s programs in english and humanities. The private, allegedly Catholic institution located in Arlington, VA, said these majors weren’t pulling their weight financially. Fashion Design and Interior Design are both still available majors and the DIE center is still being funded.
Another allegedly Roman Catholic college, Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has spit on Catholic teaching with a new guideline for faculty and staff on creating a more “gender inclusive” campus. Like Marymount, it has a special section dedicated to DIE, which the school sadly says, out loud, is “fundamental” to its mission. The Catholic Church teaches that all human beings are created in the image and likeness of God (Gen 1:27). Thus, for the Christian, identity is given, and not created by one’s own will.
FCC: Gigi Sohn, Biden’s nominee to head the Federal Communications Commission, has withdrawn her nomination following opposition from Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) over tweets like the one in which she called President Trump a “raggedy white supremacist.” Manchin said, “The FCC must remain above the toxic partisanship that Americans are sick and tired of, and Ms. Sohn has clearly shown she is not the person to do that.”
HELL in a HANDBASKET: [4:02] – Father Ripperger knows this stuff from the personal experiences of exorcists like himself. I googled the five names he cites and found some additional information. Baal is associated with idolatry and gluttony. Asmodeus is associated with lust and gambling. Leviathan is associated with envy and chaos. Lilith is a “sexually wanton demon of the night who steals babies.” And Baphomet (pictured above in CATHOLIC EDUCATION) is both half-human/half-animal and half-male/half-female; he/she/it is depicted as having breasts and a penis and is associated with child sacrifice.
J6: [7:56] – CLICK https://rumble.com/v2cd9xa-supercut-liberal-media-melts-down-over-new-jan-6-footage.html [2:06] to watch Tucker mock the Wrongs’ panic over his January 6 surveillance footage reveals. In related news, J6 defendants want access to the footage, something House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has said will happen as soon as it has been through a security review.
Rep. Eric “Fang Banger” Swalwell (D-Calif.) said that by sharing the Jan. 6 Capitol security footage, McCarthy “just gave the proudest boy of all a blueprint for the Capitol … who knows where that will land for the next insurrection.” It looks to me like the real security issues are about procedures (e.g., how people are evacuated) than about floor plans … you know, seeing as the latter are already available online.
PRO-ABORTS: Since May 2022, the radical pro-abortion group known as “Jane’s Revenge” has perpetrated more than 100 attacks on pro-life organizations and churches across the nation. Last week, they broke seven windows at First Care Center and vandalized the building with messages like “If abortions arn’t safe neither r u.”
First Care Center provides free counseling, pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, and adoption information. Every year, the center gives families in need baby clothes, car seats, strollers, and other supplies, including tens of thousands of diapers, all of which is bought with donations. The money needed to fix the damage to their facility will do nothing to change their mission; it will just deprive their clients of some of those resources.
And, in yet another display of how little the Wrongs actually care about women, pro-aborts piled on the hate after a prominent young pro-life advocate tweeted that she had suffered a miscarriage.
TWITTER FILES: Last week, the House Judiciary Committee’s Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government heard testimony from Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger. Below are clips from the hearing for your viewing pleasure.
PRINCETON, NJ — Despite being armed with respectable PhDs, published papers, and bowties, historians remain stumped that kids throughout history didn’t commit suicide despite having no access to gender surgery.
They expressed astonishment that high rates of child suicide only exist in the country graciously offering gender surgeries to minors.
“We’ve pored over manuscripts, scrolls, hieroglyphs, petroglyphs, and really old tweets,” said Professor of Old-Timey Children’s Studies, Dr. Richard Pritchard, “But we’ve been left perplexed that both gender surgeries and child suicides were practically nonexistent in civilizations past.”
Dr. Pritchard had caused a stir in academia after claiming to have stumbled upon a centuries-old North American society that appeared to have offered gender-affirming surgery for minors. After peer review, however, his work was discredited with the discovery that the Aztecs were simply mutilating and sacrificing their children to the gods.
“It’s a common misunderstanding to confuse child gender surgery and ritual child sacrifice, as the two practices have such striking similarities,” said Pritchard, “For example, in both cases, the parents seek to trade their children’s lives for increased status in the eyes of their community and their gods.”
At publishing time, historians had announced confusion that past governments did not immediately collapse despite having no obligatory staff diversity quotas.

I’ve been sick in bed for a week. Dunno how long I’ll last today, but I’m at least sitting up, which is a good start! Mostly, I just wanted to say, “Hey! I’m alive!” and also wish Dearest a happy anniversary! Thirty-five years ago today, he started his own architecture firm. ❤
WASHINGTON, DC — Following former President Donald Trump’s overwhelming victory in CPAC’s straw poll for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has proposed legislation that would impose a nationwide ban on the use of straws.
“This poll shows straws are a threat to our democracy!” Ocasio-Cortez said in a statement to the media. “If straws are supporting Donald Trump and his dangerous ‘MAGA’ movement, then they have no business being in public circulation, let alone voting for President!”
“Plus, they outnumber humans, like, 2 to 1. That’s scary!”
The straw poll, conducted at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, showed Trump garnering a commanding 60% of the votes cast. This resulted in immediate calls from Democrats to subject straws to even heavier regulation.
The former President himself was quick to weigh on with a response. “The Democrats are just jealous,” Trump said in a post to his Truth Social account. “Dumb AOC is just angry that she can’t get 60% of a vote without rigging an election! I had the biggest, most beautiful straw poll in the history of CPAC! So many patriotic, American straws. Banning straws is un-American! How are supposed to drink milkshakes without them? WITCH HUNT!”
Ocasio-Cortez pledged to continue the fight against straws, no matter how long it takes. “If this straw poll showed us one thing, it’s that straws can no longer be trusted,” she said.
At publishing time, AOC had been seen at a local coffee shop gluing herself to a straw in protest.
