BORDER: Texans want the border wall finished, so Gov. Abbott is demanding that the Biden administration return property that was seized by the federal government for construction of a border wall that the FAUXTUS administration has now refused to build.

CATHOLIC: On Thursday, Catholic bishops debated for three hours then voted overwhelming in favor of drafting a teaching document on the Eucharist. The vote was 168 bishops voted in favor, 55 against, with 6 abstentions. I’d love to know how my bishop voted, but I understand it was a secret ballot vote.

There’s a lot of other stuff going on at their annual meeting, but this is the hot button issue, because it could end up with CINOs like Biden and Pelosi being denied Holy Communion.

How do I have two medical degrees if I’m sitting here oppressed?” [4:40] – CLICK https://twitter.com/sistertoldjah/status/1405648057077841924 [1:46] to hear how jerknalists are demonizing opponents of Critical Race Theory by portraying them as mindless (and racist) Astroturf props who are being fed lies by prominent conservative movers and shakers.

They do the same thing to every effort we make to fight them. I think it’s likely that they really believe we’re all the same kind of mindless sheeple their followers are. But we’re not.

FLORIDA: Arizona’s Gov. Ducey and Texas’ Gov. Abbott put out a call to fellow Republican governors, asking for help with the border. At a June 16 press conference, Florida’s Gov. DeSantis became the first to says “We’re coming.”

It’s undeniable that the border crisis is out of control,” Christina Pushaw, press secretary to DeSantis told The Epoch Times. “Helping our fellow Americans in their moment of need is always the right thing to do. The governors of other states have sent resources to Florida in the past to help respond to natural disasters. With the federal government unable or unwilling to enforce our laws and secure our border, Florida is ready to step up to the plate and do our part.

GEORGE SOROS: If you’re bewildered by why some cities and counties are such a flaming mess, look at the candidates George Soros has backed with his billionaire bucks. For years now, he has been dumping hundreds of thousands of dollars into placing the most far-left candidates into the position of chief prosecutor. Prosecutors decide what crimes to prosecute and and what crimes to let slide.

HERESY: The number cited is from a Pew poll of all those who self-identify as Catholic. A more recent poll of Catholics who go to Mass found 74% believe that pro-choice Catholic politicians should not present themselves to receive Communion.

A. Masks are mostly useless, but they’re totally moronic outdoors. And while exercising. B. What you really NEED to be wearing when you’re riding a bicycle is something between your delicate privates and those hard, uncomfortable seats.

RECYCLING PLASTIC: [4:40] – Polywood outdoor furniture isn’t affected by the weather, so I can leave it outdoors year-round.

SCIENCE: The science says a fertilized zygote is alive and human. Democrats, those great defenders of science, don’t much care. Their latest assault on the human rights of the unborn is the Women’s Health Protection Act, which seeks to obliterate all existing laws placing limits on late-term abortions.

The law’s chief Senate sponsor, Sen. Blumenthal, was asked, “Is an unborn baby at 15 weeks a human being?” He responded that he was going to wait for the Supreme Court to rule on that. “Right now, abortion at that point in a pregnancy is legal and constitutionally protected, and I believe it should be.

On Thursday, a reporter asked Speaker Pelosi, “Is an unborn baby at 15 weeks a human being?” She replied, “Let me just say that I am a big supporter of Roe v. Wade.” If you’re in a masochistic mood, you can CLICK https://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1405546698068434946 [:27] to hear Nancy.

GEORGIA: Fulton County, the largest in the state, is predominantly Democrat. Documents submitted by Fulton’s election officials to state officials show significant irregularities in the Atlanta area during last November’s voting.

These problems, which range from identical vote tallies repeated multiple times to large batches of absentee ballots that appear to be missing from the official ballot-scanning records, potentially impact thousands of ballots in a state Biden supposedly won by fewer than 12,000 votes.

‘Frisco used to be a beautiful city and a popular tourist destination. I went once and loved it. Now, thanks to the idjits running the place, the only people living there are the ultra rich, the poor, mentally ill, and drug addicted homeless, and an ever-shrinking middle class.

I’m thinking the closing of local stores will mainly hurt the homeless who can’t drive to stores or shop on-line. However, there’s a bright side to this. If the homeless flee, the über rich can finally have the city all to themselves … which may be what they’re after.

BORDER: On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump announced he is accepting Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s invitation to visit the crisis at the border. They hope to draw attention to what Trump called “grave and willful dereliction of duty” by his successor.

CATHOLIC: A recent CatholicVote poll found that 74% of Mass-attending Catholics believe that “Catholic public officials who disagree with their Church on serious or grave matters” should “avoid creating confusion and disunity by not presenting themselves for communion.”

Catholic Vote President Brian Burch says, “These are the Catholics our Bishops should be listening to.”

FAUXTUS: He wanted to visit the Vatican and celebrate Mass with Pope Francis. The Vatican said nope.

Our sources confirm that there was indeed a plan for the President to visit the Vatican, with the hope that he could attend Mass as part of his European trip,” said CatholicVote President Brian Burch Tuesday. “If he received Communion at the Vatican — whether directly from Pope Francis or not — it would surely have been used by partisans to influence the anticipated discussion expected among the Bishops in the United States later this week.

ILLINOIS: From Clarissa – “In Illinois, two-year-olds will continue to get masked in daycare until they can be vaccinated.

Why?

Here’s the explanation from the governor’s office and I quote: ‘Now that fewer adults get infected, COVID might move on to infecting kids.’

Because apparently COVID is sentient and rational. It thought about its options and decided to become dangerous to kids in an exercise of free will.

MASKS: A group of parents in Gainesville, FL, sent 6 face masks to a lab at the University of Florida, requesting an analysis of contaminants found on the masks after they had been worn. The resulting report found that five masks were contaminated with bacteria, parasites, and fungi, including three with dangerous pathogenic and pneumonia-causing bacteria. Although the test is capable of detecting viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, only one virus was found on one mask (alcelaphine herpesvirus 1).

The analysis detected the following 11 dangerous pathogens on the masks:

  • Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumonia)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (tuberculosis)
  • Neisseria meningitidis (meningitis, sepsis)
  • Acanthamoeba polyphaga (keratitis and granulomatous amebic encephalitis)
  • Acinetobacter baumanni (pneumonia, blood stream infections, meningitis, UTIs—resistant to antibiotics)
  • Escherichia coli (food poisoning)
  • Borrelia burgdorferi (causes Lyme disease)
  • Corynebacterium diphtheriae (diphtheria)
  • Legionella pneumophila (Legionnaires’ disease)
  • Staphylococcus pyogenes serotype M3 (severe infections—high morbidity rates)
  • Staphylococcus aureus (meningitis, sepsis)

Half of the masks were contaminated with one or more strains of pneumonia-causing bacteria. One-third were contaminated with one or more strains of meningitis-causing bacteria. One-third were contaminated with dangerous, antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens. In addition, less dangerous pathogens were identified, including pathogens that can cause fever, ulcers, acne, yeast infections, strep throat, periodontal disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and more.

The face masks studied were new or freshly-laundered before wearing and had been worn for 5 to 8 hours, most during in-person schooling by children aged 6 through 11. One was worn by an adult. A t-shirt worn by one of the children to school and unworn masks were tested as controls. No pathogens were found on the controls; samples from the front top and bottom of the t-shirt found proteins that are commonly found in skin and hair, along with some commonly found in soil.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: Jack Denton was serving as the Student Senate president at Florida State University when he shared his Catholic faith with his peers — many of whom he considered friends — in a private chat.

People who were not his friends edited words spoken in love and concern to make him appear hateful and posted them in the internet. In the backlash, the university removed him from his office. One of his enemies said, “I am disgusted that other Catholics are attempting to stand behind him with his outdated and extreme cult mindset. Those who choose not to denounce Jack Denton tonight should expect the same action and scrutiny from the entire community moving forward.

Alliance Defending Freedom took Denton’s case to court and won. Denton was reinstated and the university issued a statement affirming its intention to protect their students’ First Amendment rights, as well as restoring Denton’s lost wages, covering attorney’s fees and issuing $10,000 in damages to him.

EMPOWERING THE CORPORATOCRACY: The lockdowns didn’t save lives, but they did cost us nearly 40% of our small businesses … which I’m suspecting was the point.

For the most part, big companies were able to weather the losses and now many of those who were formally employed by small businesses are now reemployed by their larger competitors.

Gee, what a surprise. Not. Small businesses are primarily owned by middle class entrepreneurs and families, the exact people the Left hates and seeks to destroy.

NICKELODEON: Since Nickelodeon and its preschool-targeted network, Nick Jr., started overtly pushing an LGBTQ agenda, viewership has dropped by more than two thirds. Average viewership is now at a pathetic 372,000.

RACISM: A black man went on a two-state shooting spree in which he targeted white people he didn’t know, because they were white. You know how you can tell that the shooter was black and the victims were white? Because the media didn’t mention race at all.

CNN’s lede: “A 39-year-old man was arrested Saturday in connection with three separate shootings in less than 24 hours that wounded five people across the Columbus, Georgia, metro area, according to police.”

RANDOM ACT: Bobby Read asked Brooksville, Florida, if he could buy the small building in the photo to turn it into a gym. They said sure. At the closing, Read said he thought the legal description of the property was more extensive than what he intended to buy. City officials went meh and signed it over to him without checking.

Several days later, Read found out the parcel he had bought included the town’s water tower. Read, being a good guy, transferred the tower back to Brooksville. A local resident suggested it was time for “voters to replace the city council and the city manager.” Ya think?

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: The pastor of Fairview Baptist Church in Calgary has been arrested for the second time for leading worship in violation of out-dated COVID-19 regulations.

Police found the outdoor service via helicopter, then surrounded worshipers with cruisers. Very North Korea, no? But despite the obvious and IMMINENT DANGER TO ALL FROM COOOOOVID, the cops just observed.

The next day, they went to Pastor Stephens’ home to arrest him … where there was nobody there to object but his wife and weeping children.

Shortly before police arrived, Stephens tweeted, “I just got a tip that the police may be on their way to arrest me. Why? I continue to lead our church to worship Jesus as Lord over every earthly power. More to come… Pray brothers and sisters. Stand firm, keep the faith.

TEAR GAS: D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) played into the media narrative that Trump had tear gassed peaceful protesters so he could have a photo shoot. Bowser was applauded by Democrats for turning the area into Black Lives Matter Plaza in honor of the protesters.

CATHOLIC: If you have ever heard or thought to yourself, “The Catholic Church is disgustingly rich; they should do more to feed the poor with all the money they have,” I suggest you read the articles below.

CHAUVIN: Derek Chauvin’s appeal will be based on prosecutorial misconduct.

Jack Cashill explains. “Prosecutors knew they had a problem. To make the murder charge stick in the Chauvin case, they had to secure an ‘asphyxia’ diagnosis from a physician. If justice were the goal, prosecutors would have taken two critical steps to assure that the medical testimony supported the charge of murder. The first was to run a controlled experiment to see if Chauvin’s actions could possibly have resulted in the death of George Floyd.

They didn’t do that. However, someone else did. The experiment found that the Floyd-stand-in suffered absolutely no ill effects from being held in the same prone restraint as Floyd. There was no impact on the oxygen level or the pulse of the restrained man for the full 10 minutes and no other ill effects at the time or two days later when the stand-in was interviewed.

The other thing the prosecutors should have done, but didn’t “was to make the court and the defense aware of the potential compromise of its star medical witness, Hennepin County Medical Examiner Dr. Andrew Baker.”

As my alert readers may recall, Dr. Baker’s autopsy initially ruled that Floyd’s body showed no signs of traumatic asphyxiation or strangulation. It noted that at the time of his death, Floyd was suffering from coronary artery disease, hypertensive heart disease, and a toxic dose of lethal drugs. Apparently, the prosecutors were unhappy with that finding and pressured him to change his findings before he testified.

COVID-19: WATCH THIS [16:13] – Peter Daszak once called the idea that the coronavirus virus had leaked from the Wuhan lab a “conspiracy theory.” According to him, there weren’t even any bats at the Wuhan lab. Now we learn that not only were there bats, but there were also humanized mice for engineering bat viruses to make them infectious to humans.

DOMINION: The same unapproved software has been found on Dominion voting machines in both Pennsylvania and Michigan. There is no valid reason for that software to be installed on any American voting machine. Not only can it be used to steal elections, but also its use is undetectable.

GENDER: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/MattWalshBlog/videos/324402035795220 [7:10] to hear psychologist and author Jordan B. Peterson talk with Ben Shapiro about gender differences. Ben asks why Leftists are so quick to ignore science when it doesn’t suit their political agendas.

What Jordan replies is couched differently, but is something I learned a long time ago about having fruitful discussions with people who disagree with me about something or other. Specifically, I found it necessary to work backwards from the disagreement to find out where the other person’s logic train began.

In Euclidean geometry, there are three things that are not proven, but simply defined: point, line, plane. From these definitions, we can move logically step-by-step through “If this then that” proofs to learn other things that are true.

Symbolic Logic uses similar logical proofs to learn what is true and what is not true, but these proofs start with statements about reality that are accepted, not proven. If two intelligent people have arrived at different conclusions about reality, it is often because they began with different definitions.

Occasionally, I have been able to show this to another person and moved them from contempt to some level of understanding, if not agreement.

HISTORY: From Kelly D. Johnson at Ricochet – “A major pandemic that killed more than 600,000 Americans is finally winding down. Taxes are raised on individuals and corporations. The nation has experienced the most progressive presidency in American history. White supremacy is a major threat, as race riots hit some cities. Systemic racism is everywhere. Soldiers are coming home after a long war. A reportedly debilitated President is largely protected by his spouse. Major movements are afoot to improve the human condition. An apt description of today? Try 1920, (more specifically, 1913-1921) some 100 years ago.

ISRAEL: Naftali Bennett has supplanted Benjamin Netanyahu by a razor-thin 60–59 vote. Netanyahu has pledged he will soon return to power.

PAHKEESTAHN: File this under “Things that make you go hmm” – A patient in one of the largest hospitals in Pakistan’s biggest city died after being operated on by a former security guard posing as a doctor.

An administrator said, “We can’t keep up with what every doctor and what everyone is doing at all times. It’s a large hospital.”

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY: Gabrielle, a second grader in Illinois, liked to bring her Bible to school and read it during recess. A teacher told her “You just can’t be doing that,” and took it away from her. No student nor any parent of any student had complained about Gabrielle’s reading her Bible or had even mentioned it.

The ACLJ sent the school a letter educating the educators about the fact that, for more than fifty years, the Supreme Court has ruled that students do not “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.”

The school thanked the ACLJ for the information and removed all restrictions on Gabrielle’s reading. It seems the school wasn’t trying to squash Gabrielle’s rights; they were just scared spitless of the ACLU.

SUBSIDIARITY: From William Brooks at The Epoch Times – “The Catholic doctrine of subsidiarity means that interventions intended to alter and improve the human condition should generally be taken at the level of society closest to where they will have the greatest impact.

The idea developed as part of Catholic social teaching, which states that ‘what individuals can accomplish by their own initiative and efforts should not be taken from them by a higher authority.’ As an organizing principle it means that civic matters should be handled at the lowest, smallest or least centralized level of administration. Where possible, cultural and political decisions should be taken at the local level rather than by a distant central authority.

On the right of the broad political center, conservatives and classical liberals tend to have a high regard for the principle of subsidiarity. … The Left, generally understood as those who favor some form of socialism, take a dim view of subsidiarity. American progressives view decentralization as an obstacle to the development of the modern welfare state.”

YEONMI PARK: [7:26] – This North Korean defector says she fears the United States’ future “is as bleak as North Korea” after she experienced anti-Western sentiment, collective guilt and suffocating political correctness at Columbia University.

There is a video of her at the link below, along with a transcript of her speech. She also has an amazing YouTube channel that I encourage everyone to check out. I wish every snowflake worrying about microaggressions would watch her videos.

BIO-ESPIONAGE: Two years ago, two Chinese scientists – Dr. Xiangguo Qiu and her husband Keding Cheng – were expelled from Canada’s only Level-4 lab for “possible breaches of security protocols.

It is believed they may have illegally provided live samples of deadly Level-4 viruses (e.g., Ebola, Nipa, Lassa, Rift Valley) to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.

Big Tech is censoring such talk, labeling it “medical misinformation.” I don’t know how long this video will continue to be up. Ditto a partial transcript which is currently @ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/tucker-carlson-if-you-read-government-data-youll-be-thrown-in-jail-and-censored-by-big-tech/ar-AAKXBMf.

CLOWN CONGRESS: Bill Nye testified before the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Emergency Preparedness, Response, and Recovery on Tuesday to discuss climate change.

His credentials include a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and a five year stint on a kid’s television show playing “the Science Guy.

CORRUPTION: The Constitution specifically grants solely to the states the power to regulate federal elections as they see fit.

You’d think the Attorney General of the United States would know this, especially since he is such a top notch constitutional scholar that Obama wanted him on the Supreme Court.

On Friday, Merrick Garland, now FAUXTUS’ Attorney General, warned state lawmakers that if they attempt to audit fraudulent elections, they will be targeted by the Biden administration.

Wendy Rogers announced, “The free state of Arizona will not tolerate this federal meddling” and told Merrick, “You will not touch Arizona ballots or machines unless you want to spend time in an Arizona prison.

Rogers is currently an Arizona state senator. In 1996, she retired from the Air Force with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. after twenty years of active duty.

FAUX-CONOMY: The consumer price index is up 5% over this time last year. This is the biggest annual spike since 2008.

HOUSING: Ordinary Americans wishing to own their own homes are being forced out of the market by large investment firms buying up house as rental properties. One investing firm bought an entire subdivision north of Houston late last year. As many as 1 in 5 houses sold in the nation’s top housing markets are being purchased by people who will never move in.

HYPOCRISY: The Left is so full of it. Last year, the New York Slime helped cancel a young woman over a stupid 3-second video she had recorded when she was 15 years old in which she celebrated getting her driver’s license with “I can drive, [n-word].”

And CNN reported on how horrible Eric Trump was to like a tweet saying, “Raise your hand if you think Harris was a whorendous pick. May have misspelled.”

But now that the Daily Mail has released text messages by Hunter Biden from 2018 and 2019 in which he repeatedly and casually used the n-word, the NY Slime, CNN, and other major news outlets have had nothing whatsoever to say.

MEDIA BIAS: President Trump drew a harder policy line with Russia than either the Obama or Biden administrations. But you probably don’t know that if you’re a TIME magazine reader. (Are there still people who read TIME magazine?)

MILITARY: On Thursday, Army General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff warned that the Chinese Communist regime is increasing its military capacity at a “very serious and sustained rate” that could pose a threat to worldwide stability and peace.

PSA: Don’t mix rubbing alcohol with bleach. Rubbing alcohol contains ethanol and isopropyl, which when mixed with bleach creates chloroform, a toxic compound that emits toxic and corrosive fumes.

According to the CDC, inhaling chloroform can cause serious issues with the central nervous system, liver, and kidneys, in addition to irritating the skin, lungs, and eyes and causing nausea and dizziness.

SJW: More bs from the grievance mongers on the Left who are so busy picking at America’s nits with electron microscope level scrutiny that they never seem to notice genuine atrocities happening around the world.

The apple pie is as American as stolen land, wealth and labor. We live its consequences today.” – Raj Patel, a research professor in the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas.

UNITY: “I’m allowed to have my own thoughts on who I choose to support and who I choose not to support,” Rep. Byron Donalds [FL-R] says.

FAUXTUS said he was all about unity … but screw that. The Congressional Black Caucus [CBC] doesn’t want Donalds in their midst, because he’s a Conservative Republican and a Trump supporter.

YOUTUBE: They’re suppressing as “medical misinformation” any content “that encourages people to use Hydroxychloroquine or Ivermectin to treat or prevent the virus.”

The latest victim is Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) who had his video removed and his account suspended for seven days.

YouTube doesn’t care that decades of use of these two drugs world-wide has demonstrated their safety and multiple studies have shown their efficacy is improving COVID-19 outcomes.

RANDOM ACTS: These good folks own a convenience store in Massachusetts. A regular customer mistakenly tossed out a million dollar lottery ticket. They retrieved it and gave it back to her at which point they say she sat down on the floor and cried like a baby.

ANTHONY WEINER: In 2016, Tony the Wiener used a secret messaging app called Confide to carry on a months-long sexting affair that destroyed his career and his marriage. It also got him sentenced to 21 months in prison, because the other party was only 15 years old.

BUT he’s free now and supposedly taking his sex addiction rehab totes serious … so I’m SURE there’s nothing untoward about the fact that he is back on Confide.

FAUCI: When Tony Fauci says, “Follow the science,” what he really means is “Follow me.”

Jesus answered: ‘Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, “I am the Messiah,” and will deceive many.’” – Matthew 24:4-5

FAUXTUS: Biden is no more a devout Catholic than he is the duly elected president. [14:25] – The Catholic League has released an 8-page report describing the 32 instances where FAUXTUS has violated not just the principles of the Catholic Church, but of the Bible itself. Keep in mind that FAUXTUS has been in his stolen office for less than 5 months.

FLAUXTUS: From Bonchie at Red State – “I think I have the reason figured out behind this campaign to make Jill Biden seem so presidential – I think she’s going to run for president.

Really, just hear me out. We know that Jill Biden is nakedly ambitious at a level we haven’t seen since Hillary Clinton, whose presidential run we are all familiar with. She drug her husband through a deeply uncomfortable 2020 presidential campaign that he was clearly not physically and mentally up for. As president, things have only gotten worse for Joe Biden, yet Jill Biden’s ambition has hardly slowed down. Rather, she’s seemingly put herself ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris when it comes to assignments and publicity.

That leads me to the next aspect of this – Jill Biden hates Kamala Harris. Just a few weeks ago, it came out that the First Lady had dropped obscenities during the 2020 campaign to describe Harris’ behavior in trying to paint Jill Biden as a racist. Since then, you’ve hardly ever seen Jill Biden appear with Kamala Harris. And while Harris is given cleanup duty in Guatemala with the disaster at the border hung around her neck, Jill Biden remains unscathed, headed to the G7 to apparently play a major role. I don’t think that’s a coincidence.

Lastly, let’s note that Kamala Harris is a terrible politician who would probably crash and burn in 2024 just as she did in 2019 (she didn’t make it to 2020). That gives Jill Biden incentive to “save” her party by stepping in. With Joe Biden almost certainly unable to run again (no matter what delusions he currently holds), Jill Biden could represent a continuation of his presidency.”

IVERMECTIN: On May 25, the Indian Bar Association served a legal notice to Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, a Chief Scientist for the World Health Organization (WHO), accusing her of “[r]unning a disinformation campaign against Ivermectin by deliberate suppression of effectiveness of drug Ivermectin as prophylaxis and for treatment of COVID-19, despite the existence of large amounts of clinical data compiled and presented by esteemed, highly qualified, experienced medical doctors and scientists.

PRIDE: Thankfully, the Pentagon has decided to stick with its policy of not displaying unofficial flags.

TRANS: CLICK https://www.lifesitenews.com/blogs/he-lived-as-a-woman-then-found-happiness-and-truth-in-jesus-christ [26:29] to watch John-Henry Westen interview Billy Burleigh. Burleigh was born male, made a full transition to female, then transitioned back. He has some good spiritual insights to share.

I was struck by one part of his story in particular. He said he was in therapy for five years with the stated goal of becoming happy with his birth gender. When he didn’t get anywhere and told his therapist he had decided to transition to female, the therapist said, “I figured you would get to this point eventually.” I can’t help wondering if his lack of progress was due in large part to her lack of commitment to his stated goal.

Thoughts on the First and Second Seals

Then I saw the Lamb open one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say with a voice like thunder, ‘Come!’ I looked, and there was a white horse. Its rider held a bow; a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.” – Rev. 6:1-2

Recently, I read an End Times novel in which the rider of the white horse was interpreted as the Antichrist. This made no sense to me, because right before the opening of the first seal, it says, “Look! The Lamb of God, the Lion from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered so that he is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.” – Rev. 5:5

As a Catholic, I was taught to respond to “Have you been saved?” with “I have been saved; I am being saved; and I hope when my time comes, I will be saved.” The reference to Jesus who “has conquered” shortly followed by the rider who goes out on the white horse “conquering and to conquer” reminded me of this. So it feels right to me that Jesus is the rider on the white horse.

And when I looked it up to double check my thoughts, I noticed that when the second seal is opened, “Another horse went out, a fiery red one, and its rider was allowed to take peace from the earth, so that people would slaughter one another. And a large sword was given to him.” – Rev. 6:4

When I saw “Take peace from the earth”, I remembered the Catholic prophecies that tell us that, before the final tribulations, Jesus will come as the King of Mercy. All around the world, the sky will become black as the night, even where it is daytime, and everyone will Jesus on the cross. Each will be shown his or her soul and sinfulness as God sees them. And each will experience for a few minutes what it would be like (Heaven, Hell, or Purgatory) if they were to die at that moment. To me, that sounds like the first seal, with Jesus, the King of Mercy going out with his crown, conquering and to conquer.

Further, it has been prophesied that, immediately following the Warning, there will be a period of 6 weeks where the devil will not be allowed to act so that all will have the freedom to choose for or against God. In other words, there will be a period of peace. I’m thinking the second seal sounds like what will happen at the end of that six week period of peace, when the rider of the red horse is “allowed to take peace from the earth, so that people would slaughter one another.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY: A new poll shows that the majority of American voters are deeply opposed to having critical race theory (CRT) principles being taught in schools.

Should schools teach that people are natural oppressors or victims based on their sex, race, and physical characteristics? No (86.6%).

Should schools teach that achieving racial justice and equality between racial groups requires discriminating against people based on their whiteness? No (84%).

FAUXTUS: Last week, “Not My President” told us that the greatest threat facing America is terrorism from white supremacy. Before that, it was disunity. Now, it’s climate change. Who knows what it will be next week?

FLAUXTUS: Why is Jill Biden sitting at the president’s desk on Air Force One, “prepping for the G-7” and tweeting from an account labeled “United States government official”? Nobody elected HER. (Not that anybody elected her husband but I digress.) So what’s going on? Is this a reprise of Woodrow and Edith Wilson?

HCQ: A new study has found that the use of weight-adjusted hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and azithromycin (AZM) greatly improved the survival of ventilated COVID-19 patients.

We found that when the cumulative doses of two drugs, HCQ and AZM, were above a certain level, patients had a survival rate 2.9 times the other patients,” the authors of the study noted.

HUNTER’S POTTY MOUTH: Newly released Hunter Biden emails show him disparaging “fa**ots” and “d*kes” and calling his lawyer the N-word.

Hunter learned those words at home from his father. The rotten apple doesn’t plop far from the tree.” -Don Surber

IVERMECTIN: The 15-page article linked below describes chronicles the effectiveness of this inexpensive drug and the immoral efforts of the Left to prevent people from learning about it.

If, for some reason, you can’t get into the COVID-19 Critical Care site, Zero Hedge covers the article in detail.

IOWA: On Tuesday, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a bill into law that bans ballot harvesting in the state. The bill passed along party lines both in the House and the Senate.

MARVEL: I have enjoyed these movies, but I’m done now that all things Disney must conform to the Left’s perversion agenda. Captain America (who pined for Peggy Carter for years, then went back in time to marry her) is now gay. And Star-Lord (who is famously played in the movies by a devout Christian) has been warped into a poly-amorous character. Now their new show “Loki” will feature the Norse god of mischief as a boy and a girl.

TRUMP VINDICATED: A year ago, Trump was accused of having tear gassed peaceful protesters just so he could walk from the White House to St. John’s Church for a photo op. Turns out they weren’t peaceful and he wasn’t the one who gassed them.

A report by Department of the Interior Inspector General states, “The evidence we reviewed showed that the USPP cleared the park to allow the contractor to safely install the antiscale fencing in response to destruction of property and injury to officers occurring on May 30 and 31. Further, the evidence showed that the USPP did not know about the President’s potential movement until mid- to late afternoon on June 1—hours after it had begun developing its operational plan and the fencing contractor had arrived in the park.”

VAX: A new study shows that the natural immunity enjoyed by recovered COVID-19 patients is as good as getting the vaccine. In fact, it’s probably better, because the vaccine only immunizes against the spike protein on the original COVID-19, whereas natural immunity covers the shape of the whole virus and is thus likely to better defend against variants.

VFAUXTUS: Don Surber writes, “A reader responded to my remark about Harris in yesterday’s highlights. I wrote, ‘Her staff is sabotaging her. She must be a monster to work for.

He said, ‘Bingo!’ Then he told me about a sale he made last fall. It was ‘to a woman who had worked in Harris’ Sacramento US Senate office. This woman is in her 60s, an attorney and a life-long Democrat. She quit because working for Harris was simply intolerable.

She told me that the staff turnover in Harris’ offices was horrendous, even in Sacramento, which Harris (still a Senator at the time) rarely visited. She told me that Harris keeps her staff stirred up and at each other’s throats and is a profane abusive tyrant. This woman told me she was voting for Trump because she had seen what Harris is really about.’
