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.
The New York Times initially reported that Sicknick had been beaten to death with a fire extinguisher, a claim that was retracted more than a month later when his autopsy report came out. Multiple media reported on the results of the autopsy, which was ruled a death due to “natural causes.”
Sicknick’s brother reported that Brian had texted him after the protest saying he’d taken some pepper spray to the face but was feeling fine. Sometime later, at about 10 p.m., Brian Sicknick suddenly collapsed and was taken to the hospital where he died about 24 hours later.
His autopsy showed he had suffered two “acute brainstem and cerebellar infarcts” (i.e., strokes) caused by “acute basilar artery thrombosis” (i.e., blood clots to the major artery feeding blood to the back of the brain). The coroner ruled his death due to “natural causes.” If his death had been hastened by any injury whatsoever, it would not have been ruled “natural.”
IOW, Sicknick’s brain was a walking time bomb that happened to go off not long after the J6 events.
Nevertheless, Dems and media talking heads continue to gleefully dance on his grave, referring to Sicknick as a victim of a “deadly insurrection.”
ANTI-CHRIST: [8:13] – Igor Chudov’s rather long post (linked below) gives numerous details of how global stakeholders successfully blocked public protests and manipulated governments into complying with their agenda.
Years ago, some prophet or other claimed to have heard from the Lord that the ‘rona was engineered, but that God had caused it to leak out prematurely to serve His own purposes. I think we’ve seen abundant evidence that this is exactly what happened.
COVID-19: “The hospital is too late to start treatment for acute COVID-19 in patients with left ventricular dysfunction. Palazzuoli et al have published an approach that focuses on optimal heart failure management and early COVID-19 therapy that allows management to be started in the home.” – Peter A. McCullough, M.D., M.P.H.
FAUXTUS: The latest AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll found only 37% of Democrats want Joe to run again and, among the 18-44s, only 23% want it.
FLYNN: Michael Flynn is suing the federal government for $50 million over the Justice Department’s wrongful and malicious criminal prosecution of him in 2017.
GLOBAL WARMING: Park City Mountain Resort, the largest ski resort in the U.S., is enjoying its longest ski season in three decades due to record snowfall and persistent cold. Park City Mountain has recorded 455 inches of snowfall this season, far exceeding the average total; some resorts have already reached 600 inches of snowfall, without an end in sight as of yet.
Jacob Chansley, the so-called QAnon Shaman that the media made the poster child for J6 villainy, was escorted by police the entire time he was inside the Capitol building. He is currently serving 3.5 years in jail for “obstructing an official proceeding.”
Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was captured on video alive after he was supposedly “murdered.” He was also seen wearing a helmet, making it even more unlikely that he died of a head injury as some falsely reported. His autopsy later showed he died of natural causes.
Ray Epps, who is widely suspected to be a federal informant who helped instigate January 6, lied to the January 6 Committee about when he left the Capitol that day.
The J6 Kangaroo Court … I mean Committee … “added audio to silent CCTV footage, inserting screams and other crowd mayhem sounds, to make it seem more ominous.”
Key clips of the footage are electronically bookmarked, showing that investigators working for the Democratic Party reviewed this tape, saw the evidence, then suppressed it.
CNN reported on this with, “Tucker Carlson, with help from Kevin McCarthy, tries to sanitize the very real violence of Jan. 6 by portraying it as a peaceful protest.” MSNBC’s Joy Reid called it a “serious security risk” to give the tapes to Carlson because he is “pro-Putin … that really is out of Putin’s playbook.” Yet Nancy Pelosi’s filmmaker daughter appears to have been given access to the footage to make a documentary.
The New York Post reported, “Democrats have been running around like decapitated chickens ever since news broke that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has given Tucker Carlson unfettered access to surveillance footage from inside the Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot by supporters of President Donald Trump.”
NEW ZEALAND: More evidence that lockdowns don’t work. NZ closed itself off from the world to avoid the ‘rona. It is now suffering the largest increase in the number of registered deaths since the 1918 influenza pandemic. Most of the increase in deaths occurred in older age groups, which ought to make the bean counters and global population wonks happy.

It is absolutely a SPIRITUAL WAR. Stay tuned to see the brave Christian whistle-blower who exposed this guy’s identity. “As a believer, I knew that I couldn’t just sit there and watch people get lied to… get gas lit. … We need to learn to not be fearful. Fear is how the Enemy controls us. … If you guys work for Big Tech, media, government agencies, it is your responsibility to stand up, do not let these people get away with this.”

THOUGHT CRIMES: In December 2022, Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested for praying silently outside an abortion clinic in its “buffer zone” where the UK does not allow protests. In February 2023, she was cleared of all charges. On March 6, she was arrested again for praying silently. CLICK https://twitter.com/ADF_UK/status/1632820479131099136 [:46] to see the arrest.
MPs are voting today on whether praying silently should be added to the list of banned activities. Imagine that. They’re so afraid of a lady standing silently on the street because she might be speaking with ALMIGHTY GOD. It’s almost like they believe in the power of prayer and recognize the evil that is abortion! CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FFsfias1lVI and ask yourself which side you’re on.
VAXXX: “Before COVID-19 myocarditis was rare and always alerted cardiologists to future risks of two outcomes: 1) heart failure, 2) arrythmias (ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation) leading to cardiopulmonary arrest. Buchan and colleagues reported 77 Canadian teenagers age 12-17 who needlessly suffered myopericarditis after the Pfizer mRNA vaccine. Sixty-six percent occurred after dose #2 and only 7% had prior COVID-19, so the vaccine was to blame in the vast majority of cases. Hospitalization occurred in 44% and there were no deaths. These cases occurred in 2020-2021 and there is no mention of follow-up or risk of future cardiac arrest.” – Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
CABABABARAVE: This UK cabaret company puts on drag shows for babies and their parents during which mostly naked men, some in bondage gear, dance provocatively. Warning: If you CLICK https://twitter.com/Dominiquetaegon/status/1630948003962912768 [:38] and https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1631065728303394817 [photos], you will need brain bleach afterwards. I’m just sitting here, wanting to cry, not because pervie men are doing these things, but because MOTHERS DELIBERATELY EXPOSED THEIR BABIES TO THEM!
CRT: This is what you get when you preach hatred and division. The Wrongs don’t want CRT because they think it’ll end racism. They want it because it will make racial violence worse. – On Feb. 10 at an elementary school in Ohio, a group of black boys ganged up on a group of white boys, bullying and punching them until they knelt down and said, “Black Lives Matter.” The surveillance video shows the incident lasted 17 minutes. One of the parents reports a teacher watched the whole thing; you gotta wonder what color her skin is. Police say they are pursuing charges, but the president of the local NAACP thinks the whole thing has been blown out of proportion … maybe because the victims were white?
FBI: Whistle-blowers testified before the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government that the Washington Field Office pressured other field offices to investigate citizens for activities protected by the First Amendment. One instance occurred during a nationwide, 56 FBI field office, conference call.
Steve Jensen, then-chief of the Domestic Terrorism Operations Center Section, asked the Philadelphia Field Office about three individuals the Washington Field Office asked them to investigate. The Philadelphia office replied that they had merely posted on social media about being pro-Second Amendment and anti-abortion, but that it didn’t mean they were “insurrectionists seeking to overturn our democracy.” Jensen responded, “I don’t give a ___; they’re all bleeping terrorists, and we’re going to round them up.”
In another instance, agents questioned why the Washington Field Office was focusing on pro-lifers in its investigations of threats against pro-life Supreme Court Justices, when the threats were coming from pro-aborts the WFO wanted ignored.
Witnesses also reported being punished for objecting to what they considered to be unlawful orders or for reporting the Washington Field Office’s antics to members of Congress. One agent was suspended for making protected disclosures to Congress. Following the closed-door testimonies, Democratic members of the committee illegally leaked the names of the agents who appeared.
“It is beyond disappointing, but sadly not surprising that Democrats would leak cherry-picked excerpts of testimony to attack the brave whistleblowers who risked their careers to speak out on abuses at the Justice Department and FBI. These same Democrats vowed to fight our oversight ‘tooth and nail,’ and they are willing to undermine the work of the Congress to achieve their partisan goals.” – Statement from Committee Chairman Jim Jordan’s (R-Ohio) office
FENTANYL: [6:44] – FAUXTUS actually mocked a bereaved mother who lost two sons to Percocet that had been laced with a lethal amount of Fentanyl. Biden smirked and blamed it on Trump who … uhhh … locked down our southern border AND made a big push to fight the opioid crisis.
Since 2017, fentanyl has been responsible for more than half of all yearly opioid overdose deaths. But since Biden opened the southern border in January 2020, the numbers have risen exponentially with the 2020 total being double the 2019 total. In 2021, the number increased another 25% over the 2020 total.
TUCKER: Dead people not only vote for Democrats, but put them into office. [8:57] – Back in 2009, Dryden Judge Joseph Valentinelli suffered massive heart failure and ended up in a coma. Democrats kept him on the ballot and his family said they wanted him to win, so that if/when he woke up, he’d have something to look forward to. When he woke up after 5 weeks, he found out he had been re-elected, but still was a long way to actually getting back to work. Dryden-ites waiting for court dates just had to suck it up.
VAXXX: Pfizer’s “5.3.6 Cumulative Analysis of Post-authorization Adverse Event Reports” (2d link below) collated reports of COVID-19 jab Adverse Events for the first 90 days following roll-out. I.e., December 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021.
During this period. there was neither authorization nor pediatric dose information for 5-to-12s, much less even younger kids. Yet the report lists 34 Adverse Events for under 12s. Of the 34 cases, 132 Adverse Events were reported. Of these, 24 of the kids’ problems (71%) were classified as serious. And some of the kids were under 5.
Most of the AEs included itching, swelling, fever, fatigue, headache, nausea, site pain, upper abdominal pain, and COVID-19. Others were far more serious, like the seven-year-old who had a stroke, a one-year-old who developed Bell’s Palsy (facial paralysis), and another infant who suffered acute kidney injury.
Pfizer’s summary of the data: “No new significant safety information was identified based on a review of these cases compared with the non-paediatric population.”
On October 13, 1973 (the anniversary of the Miracle of the Sun at Fatima), the Blessed Virgin appeared to Sr. Agnes Sasagawa and gave her the following message:
“If men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests.
“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. The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer pardon for them.“
In January, Cardinal Robert McElroy of San Diego, California, wrote an article for America magazine in which he upended Catholic doctrine about the importance of receiving Holy Eucharist in a state of grace. According to him, people who are actively participating in sexual sin should be invited to receive.
There followed what Raymond Wolfe called, “an explosive backlash from fellow bishops.” Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, went so far as to condemn McElroy’s comments as “heresy” and suggest that he had automatically excommunicated himself. On Thursday, America published another essay by McElroy in which he doubles down on his heresy. McElroy is reputed to be a special favorite of the pontiff.
1A: Mark Lee Dickson, director of Right to Life of East Texas and founder of Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn Initiative, has won a significant First Amendment victory in the Texas Supreme Court. Dickson was sued in two separate lawsuits by pro-aborts for saying abortion is the “murder of innocent unborn human beings.” The court unanimously upheld his right to “speak, write or publish opinions about any subject, with the First Amendment providing that Congress shall make no law abridging free speech.”
BIDEN CRIME FAMILY: America First Legal (AFL) has released records obtained from a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request that demonstrate a number of irregularities from Joe’s time as Obama’s VP.
VP Biden used a personal email address for official government business;
The Office of the Vice President (OVP) coordinated directly with Hunter Biden for media responses;
The Obama Administration had concerns about Hunter Biden’s appointment to Burisma;
Hunter Biden should have registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).
FROGXIT: [10:11] – King Charles has served a formal eviction notice on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex (aka, Harry and Meghan) to vacate Frogmore Cottage. In an additional slap in their ungrateful faces, the king has offered Frogmore to his disgraced brother, Andrew, who reportedly doesn’t even want it.
HELL in a HANDBASKET: [3:21] – On Feb. 20th, 2023, a dad spoke passionately at a public school board about a pornographic book in his kids’ school library. He noted that he was told he couldn’t read aloud from the book, because of the graphic content, but admitted that he didn’t think he would have been able to read aloud in a room containing women and children.
In other news, Biden’s spoxgaywoman told reporters that the administration thinks people who are trying to ban drag shows for minors are being stupid. CLICK https://twitter.com/OliLondonTV/status/1631806143856082944 [:16] to see what the so-called “smart” people support. (Sorry about this one!)
JOSH RENFREW: [8:16] – John-Henry Newman reports on the Catholic school board meeting featuring the 16-year-old boy who was actually arrested for protesting the school allowing “trans” boys to use girls’ bathrooms. Hardly anybody was allowed into the meeting, so Josh’s supporters stood outside, in the cold, and prayed.
LOCKDOWN FILES: The Telegraph has obtained more than 100,000 WhatsApp messages sent between then-U.K. Health Minister Matt Hancock and other ministers and officials at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. They provide incontrovertible proof that the policies were ineffective in protecting public health, destructive of the economic and social fabric of the nation, and based on a pack of lies.

CALIFORNICATION: It should come as no surprise that people who sanction the violent murder of helpless unborn babies would have no compunctions about assaulting the elderly. In October, an angry Planned Parenthood client shoved Ross Foti (88) into a fire hydrant.
Foti, who has spent the past 30 years praying outside Planned Parenthood facilities and counseling abortion-seeking women, reportedly suffered a punctured lung and other serious injuries that put him in the hospital for four days. He remains in pain and requiring ongoing treatment.
As of March 1, NO charges had been filed against the assailant, so Life Legal launched a campaign urging supporters to contact the San Mateo District Attorney’s Office on behalf of Foti. The campaign succeeded in getting the attacker charged with, though not arrested for, aggravated battery causing serious bodily injury and battery against an elder, which carries enhanced penalties.
While hailing the charges against the woman as a “victory,” Life Legal argued that the district attorney wouldn’t have delayed filing the charges if the situation had been reversed. If Foti had shoved the woman, they argued, “he would likely have been arrested on the spot and immediately charged.” Duh. I’m not holding my breath waiting for the Cali judicial system to punish this woman.
DYSTOPIA: [14:03] – This short film is a masterpiece in every way … script, acting, directing, lighting, editing. Give it your best. You won’t be sorry.
HELL in a HANDBASKET: Graphic Warning: 11-year-old boy reads pornographic smut to the school board from a book that was prominently displayed near the door of his middle school library.

MANDATES: Many pols and businesses have quietly rescinded the useless and overly punitive ‘rona vaxxx mandates that forced so many to choose between their health and their livelihoods. To my knowledge, the lady in Canada (hit link below) is the only one to publicly apologize.
MASKS: The Babylon Bee does it again. [2:41] – In other news, New York City police have abruptly switched from arresting people for shopping without a mask to insisting they shop without a mask.
“We’re seeing far too often where people are coming up to our businesses, sometimes with masks and latex gloves, and they’re being buzzed in, they’re being allowed to enter into the store and then we have a robbery or some kind of property being stolen,” NYPD chief of department Jeffrey Maddrey told the local business community.
MISSISSIPPI: [5:19] – On Tuesday, the seventh state banned sex reassignment procedures for minors. Mississippi also prohibits transgender males from competing with genuine female athletes.
“There is a dangerous movement spreading across America today. It’s advancing under the guise of a false ideology and pseudoscience being pushed onto our children through radical activists, social media, and online influencers. And it’s trying to convince our children that they are in the wrong body. I stand before you today to sign legislation that puts a stop to this in Mississippi and protects our kids.” – Gov. Tate
NATURAL IMMUNITY: Before the pandemic, the power of natural immunity was well known and widely acknowledged … even by Dr. Anthony Fauci. And, in 2021, multiple studies showed that recovering from a COVID infection produced strong and durable natural immunity. So why did Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins collude to ensure this evidence, these scientists, and anyone else asking “What about natural immunity?” would suffer a “quick and devastating published takedown”?
May 2021: Washington University School of Medicine study finds “robust” antibodies still present at least 11 months after infection.
June 2021: Cleveland Clinic study finds no benefit from vaccination to those with natural immunity.
July 2021: Emory University Vaccine Center study finds “durable and broad immune memory after SARS-CoV-2 infection.”
August 2021: Israel study finds natural immunity “confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization” than two shots of the vaccine.
GRAMMY NOTES: I’m excited about these funny books I just ordered for Bootz’s 7th birthday. I actually remember the first time I got a vocabulary joke and how delighted I was to realize that words could be amusing.
CARS: According to the latest quarterly reports, customers are losing interest in Electric Vehicles. The reasons cited include high costs, quality-control issues, and supply-chain problems. CLICK https://twitter.com/CitizenFreePres/status/1631337079182614528 [2:18] to see an EV owner wait for a quarter hour in a cold, dark parking lot to accomplish what 3 seconds’ worth of gasoline at the pump would have gotten him.
FAUXTUS: Last year, about 47,000 people died in America from gunshot wounds. Seventy percent involved blacks, mostly males, in the inner cities, despite the fact that black males represent only 7% of the population. More than half were suicides. And some were the result of lawful self-defense and/or police shootings.
Meanwhile, there were an estimated 1.9 MILLION new cancer cases in America in 2022, with over 609,000 projected deaths. But ask a Democrat and 35% of them will tell you that GUN VIOLENCE is the #1 problem in America. So I’m sure they cheered last night when Biden vowed to ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines “come hell or high water.”
No word on closing the border to stem the flood of fentanyl pouring into this country.
GET WOKE. GO BROKE: Urban Christian Academy in Kansas City was a private, K-8 school with an enrollment of 100. It claimed to provide “a tuition-free, high-quality, Christ-centered education for low-income students“, until it decided to become “an affirming school. We stand with the LGBTQIA+ community and believe in their holiness. We celebrate the diversity of God’s creation in all its varied and beautiful forms.“
Donors pulled their funding. In December of 2021, right before they publicly supported the LGBTQ community, they raised $333,985. In December of 2022, they raised $14,809. The school will close at the end of this school year. Incredibly, the executive director and co-founder says she has no regrets.
OHIO: The railway union reports that workers who helped clean up the mess in East Palestine have been suffering from health issues such as migraines and nausea, because the company disregarded their safety when dispatching them to clean up hazardous materials. One of the chemicals they were exposed to, vinyl chloride, can cause a rare form of liver cancer.
PREJUDICE: It amazes me that politicians can claim their failure to get re-elected is about prejudice. Supposedly, voters put this (fill in demographics) person into office without knowing what s/he could or would do. The pre-judging here was all positive. As in, “We’re willing to give you and your (fill in demographics) a chance!” Failing to get re-elected is all about having done a bad job with that chance.
VAXXX: All drugs have a pregnancy category designation. The best is A where “The possibility of fetal harm appears remote.” Very few drugs are in this category. The worst is X where, “The risk of use of the drug in pregnant women clearly outweighs any possible benefit. The drug is contraindicated in women who are or may become pregnant.” Examples of Category X drugs include thalidomide, oral contraceptives, and statins. In Dr. McCullough’s expert opinion, all of the COVID-19 vaccines belong in Category X.
