The Sixth Day of Christmas

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Keep our hearts resting in Yours. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

CHARLIE KIRK: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1167472112188411 [1:00] to hear him explain why Christians shouldn’t be on the political left.

CHRISTIANITY: The Twelve Days of Christmas, also known as Twelvetide, is a festive Christian season celebrating the Birth of Jesus. Established in 567 at the Council of Tours, it is a time for rededication to and renewal of the faith.

Each day of the famous song by the same name celebrates one of the superb gifts of our faith. Today, the “six geese a’laying” symbolize the six days of creation when God “hatched” or formed the world.

  1. God created the heavens and the earth
  2. God created the sky and seas
  3. God created the land and plants
  4. God created the sun, moon, and stars
  5. God created fish and birds
  6. God created land animals and man

EVERYDAY HEROES: For her science fair project, Eniola Shokunbi built a remarkably effective DIY air purifiers using readily available materials: a box fan, a furnace filter, and tape. They eliminate over 99% of airborne viruses. With $11.5 million in state funding, she was able to get her filters into schools throughout Connecticut, providing thousands of students with healthier and safer air.

JOHNS HOPKINS: [1:47] – Prayers for Jasmine’s recovery!

LIFE: The video they watched is @ https://www.liveaction.org/what-is-abortion. [8:17] – GOOD NEWS! On December 21, 2025, Puerto Rico’s governor, Jenniffer González Colón, signed Proyecto del Senado 504 (Senate Bill 504) into law, declaring, “El ser humano en gestación o nasciturus es persona natural, incluyendo al concebido en cualquier etapa de gestación dentro del útero materno.”

Translation: “The human being in gestation or nasciturus is a natural person, including the conceived at any stage of gestation within the maternal uterus.

This establishes civil personhood from conception, allowing the unborn to potentially benefit from rights like inheritance, donations, or other protections afford born human beings.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Pour forth into our hearts a fraternal spirit that we may recognize You in each other. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

On the right is a photo of Democrat Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, a non-Muslim, dressing to impress her Somali Muslim constituents.

SCIENCE: [3:44] – Engineers have to point out the science errors in movies. Moms have to critique every labor and delivery scene and end with, “That’s not a newborn.”

Feast of the Holy Family

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to worship You with all of our hearts and minds. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BORDER: Between Jan. 20 and Dec. 11, 2025, ICE arrested about 595,000 illegals; roughly 70% of these individuals had been either been charged with or actually convicted of criminal offenses.

CLIMATE HOAX: [3:48] – Check out the “10 Best Co2 Generator For Greenhouse of 2025” @ https://reviews.oneclearwinner.com/product/co2-generator-for-greenhouse/, because (big duh) plants LOVE CO2. And heat.

MINNESOTA: [43;35] – A YouTuber and his crew visited “day care” and “health care” sites listed at the state’s website as receiving millions of taxpayer dollars.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, May our hearts be united in the pursuit of peace, justice, and truth for the good of all. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

Comments on X …

“WAPO is actually frothy that Jesus Christ was mentioned on *checks notes* the day Jesus Christ’s birthday is celebrated.”

“This story edited by Ebenezer Scrooge.”

“It’s called CHRISTmas for a reason.”

Nineteenth Day of Advent

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us each to focus on the significance of Christ’s birth and the hope He brings to the world. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

CALIFORNICATION: [14:09] – Major companies are moving elsewhere. The Nevada Globe called it “a brutal indictment of California’s hostile business climate.”

FILM HISTORY: [24:18] – Philip Van Doren Stern said he got the idea for the story in a dream. I can’t help thinking it was God’s gift to future America, because hardly anybody in the 1940s wanted it.

HOLIDAY SHOPPING: Also, pill organizers and adult coloring books.

HYPOCRISY: For the record, I am not posting this to excuse Trump’s bad attitude. I think we should be better than this! CLICK https://x.com/mazemoore/status/2001094249702367258 [2:40] if you can stand to listen to an overpaid bigot dump on a dead man for having a message that appealed to [dripping with disdain] “people sitting in their TRUCKS.” I stopped listening at that point.

MAR-A-LAGO RAID: Newly declassified emails may give Trump grounds to sue for civil liberty violations or prompt prosecutors to pursue a criminal investigation. They show that, before the 2022 raid on Trump’s home in Florida, the FBI expressed doubt that Trump had done anything wrong. FBI agents repeatedly recommended talking to Trump’s lawyers rather than raiding or, failing that, limiting the warrant to avoid private areas of the estate.

The Biden DOJ blew them off. On June 1, 2022, the Assistant Special Agent in Charge wrote, “DOJ has been adamant that no accommodation would be given and that they would not reach out to the attorney.” Nevertheless, the FBI continued to push for “a reasonable conversation with the former president’s attorney.”

When it became obvious the raid would happen regardless, the FBI advocated for a “professional, low key” search that respected “the optics.” As we all know, the August 8, 2022 raid, which was authorized by then-Attorney General Merrick Garland, was anything but.

MINNESOTA: I hope you’ll find time to read “What Somalis Have Done for Minnesota” by Daniel Greenfield @ https://www.danielgreenfield.org/2025/12/what-somalis-have-done-for-minnesota.html.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Turn our hearts and minds to the reason for the season. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

VOTER FRAUD: The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division is suing 18 states for refusing to provide complete state voting registration lists. The Trump administration says it wants the information to verify the states are following federal election law in an effort to strengthen voting security. The 18 states, all of which Trump lost in 2020, call it intimidation in an effort to influence elections.

Comment from X: “I wonder how Epstein’s victims feel watching Democrats go after Trump instead of the women who really raped them?”

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to honor You in all our thoughts, words, and deeds. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

MINNESOTA: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/e-iFmNmjVyM to hear Nick Freitas respond to an arrogant Somalian providing yet more evidence that these people are not immigrants, but invaders.

TEXAS: [9:42] – I’m guessing the Biden DOJ went after him as a warning to all the other Democrats, “Toe the line or else.” Now he’s been pardoned by a Republican president.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Please continue to shower Your graces on this couple. Draw them ever closer to You and keep them safe from all temptations to sin. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

SECRET SANTA: [6:16] – This woman is such a gem!

Sixth Day of Advent

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Create in us a true longing for You. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BORDER: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has stopped adjudication on all immigration and naturalization cases from 13 nations and placed partial restrictions on 6 others. Citizens of these countries are now cut off from attempting to seek asylum, get green cards, or become U.S. citizens.

EVERYDAY HEROES: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=844645504642265 [:37] to see first responders in West Virginia pull a truck driver to safety after the 18-wheeler skidded off a snow-covered highway, leaving the cab dangling off a bridge nearly 100 feet above the ground.

HOLIDAY SHOPPING: Who could resist this 20-piece set of beard ornaments! (Besides me, I mean.) Sixteen of them are jingle bells; the other four light up.

MEDIA: NBC’s coverage consisted of the following single sentence within a White House roundup segment – “Federal prosecutors have charged dozens of people in Minnesota’s Somali community for allegedly stealing hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer money meant for social service programs.”

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Please bless the American bishops and Pope Leo with a broader and more accurate understanding of our battle to save our country. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

CATHOLIC: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1191212856257538 to see extraordinary footage of what happened to a man who tried to break into a Tabernacle. Stay to listen to the priest’s important message after. I’m sorry the thumbnail is so hard to see.

EPSTEIN: [7:30] – “It’s not like they were 8 year olds.” That reminds me of Whoopi Goldberg saying it wasn’t that big of a deal that Roman Polanski had drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl, because “It wasn’t rape rape.” CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1341929594065803 [1:56] to hear why we still support Trump.

EVERYDAY HEROES: When it was their turn to have pictures taken with Snow White, Brody was having an autism meltdown. His mom writes, “Snow White was absolutely amazing with him! She kissed, hugged and cuddled him. He was laying his head crying on her lap. She then took him for a walk away from the crowd. She was amazing. She held his hand, danced with him, took him over to a bench and sat with him. She went above and beyond! She took so much time with him and was a pure angel! She was simply magical, and my family is forever thankful and touched.”

FLOOD MANAGEMENT: Fascinating! [26:12] – Where I live, flooding is a given. I never thought it would be a problem in the high desert. I know this one is long, but I was riveted, so maybe you will be also. 🙂

ICE: On November 9, Akhror Bozorov (31) was arrested while he was driving an 18-wheeler in Kansas. In 2022, Bozorov’s native Uzbekistan accused him of having ties to terrorists and issued a warrant for his arrest. He fled to the U.S. where, in February 2023, he was arrested by Border Patrol attempting to cross the border.

Despite the fact that his home country has labeled him a terrorist, the Biden administration granted him authorization to work and released him. Then Pennsylvania, under Gov. Josh Shapiro, gave him a Commercial Driver’s License. Cuz, yeah, terrorist illegal aliens should totes be operating 18-wheelers on America’s highways.

Even worse, Bozorov’s driver’s license has a REAL ID star on it, meaning he could use it to board a domestic flight or enter a secure federal facility or military base. Cuz, why wouldn’t we want to give terrorist illegal aliens ready access to high value terror targets?

According to the TSA website below, only someone who has met “all federal regulations that establish minimum security standards” can get a REAL ID. Riiiiiiiiight.

LIFE: I have never understood abortion for terminally ill fetuses. If the only life they get is in the womb, then let them have every minute. And let them die peacefully, not torn apart or burned to death. I have personally known two women who received the devastating news that their babies would not live much beyond birth. Both carried to natural delivery and never regretted it.

PHILATELY: I definitely want one of these for my collection! The origami crane has long been a symbol of hope, peace, and healing. The stamp was designed using a photograph from the Peace Crane Project. The following is from their website –

“The Peace Crane Project invites every student on the planet to fold an origami crane, write a message of peace on its wings, then exchange it with another student somewhere in the world. The Project builds friendships, strengthens hand-eye coordination and writing skills, teaches geography, exposes students to new languages and cultures, and EMPOWERS YOUTH to make a difference in their community, country, and world. Classrooms, teachers, students, schools, community groups, and individuals are welcome. It’s FREE to participate!”

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Pour out Your Spirit of reconciliation upon every community in our great nation. Let forgiveness flow like a river and love mend what hatred has torn. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

TRUMP SHOOTER: [7:18] – Miranda Devine reports that the Biden FBI lied to Congress and the American people about what the shooter’s online history revealed. After the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt in Butler, PA, then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress that the bureau had found nothing in Crooks’ online history that pointed to a motive or political ideology.

However, Crooks’ accounts on YouTube, Snapchat, Venmo, Zelle, GroupMe, Discord, Google Play, Quizlet, Chess.com and Quora showed that, while he had briefly been pro-Trump, he had switched sides, becoming radicalized and increasingly obsessed with political violence. All of this happened under his real name. There’s simply no way the FBI didn’t know it when they told us the exact opposite.

GRAMMY NOTES: When our #2 enlisted, she had a college degree, so could have gone to OCS immediately. Saying that, if she was ever going to lead soldiers, she should first be a soldier, she chose instead to go to regular boot camp as an E-1 Private. When she met her husband, she was a Specialist and he outranked her. Despite knowing it would mean she would not only outrank, but also outearn him, he encouraged her to follow her dream. When she graduated from OCS, I couldn’t be there to see him give her her first salute, so watching this clip was doubly special for me.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Prepare us now for when You return. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BBC: Last week, The Telegraph reported that the BBC’s premiere investigative program, the longest-running in the world, deceptively edited Trump’s speech on January 6, 2021, to make it seem like he called for violence at the Capitol.

CLICK https://x.com/realvictorad/status/1987647336508481779 [:21] to hear the BBC version and the original

Both the BBC Director General Tim Davie & News CEO Deborah Turness have been forced to resign. Trump’s lawyers have also sent a letter to the BBC, demanding the network retract “false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements” made about Trump that were “fabricated and aired by the BBC”

“Failure to comply will leave President Trump with no choice but to pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to recover damages for the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that the BBC has caused him to suffer, with all rights and remedies being expressly reserved by President Trump.”

CATHOLIC: Please pray a Hail Mary for an increase in vocations to the priesthood.

CORNELL: Cornell University has agreed to pay the federal government a $30 million fine over three years and the DOJ has agreed to stop investigating all the ways the university has violated federal civil rights laws. Federal grants (about $250 million) to the institution will thus be unfrozen.

N.b., I chose the graphic above because it shows the building where Dearest and I first met in January 1979 and where we were joined in holy matrimony on October 13 of that same year.

EVERYDAY HEROES: “Mister, I miss my sisters,” my youngest said that first night. My name’s Marcus, and I grew up in foster care. I still remember the night they split me from my little brother, Aaron. That sound of him crying through the wall never left me. I promised myself that if I ever got the chance, no kid would go through that again. Years later, I became a foster parent. The first children who came were three brothers—Jayden, Malik, and Noah. They were polite, quiet, and scared to unpack. Then I found out they had two sisters, Ava and Chloe, living in different homes across town. That same night, Jayden looked up and said those words: “Mister, I miss my sisters.” I started calling everyone I could—social workers, agencies, judges. I begged until all five kids could live under one roof. The day they walked through my door together, the house finally sounded like home. When the adoption became official, all five stood beside me in court. I looked at them, and I told them, “You’ll never be apart again.”

FIFTY-YEAR MORTGAGES: “This just means your house will be owned by the bank until you die, and after. We don’t need 50 year mortgages. Get the illegal immigrants out of our country. Give America back to Americans.” ~ Matt Walsh

NYC: “Mamdani is going to run out of other people’s money much faster than other communists … because people in NYC are allowed to flee.” ~Nick Freitas

OBAMACARE: [5:17] – Democrats are blaming the sudden and very steep rise in Obamacare premiums on Republicans. But Republicans opposed Obamacare from the start. The shutdown during Trump’s first term was their attempt to scuttle it before it did irreparable damage to our health care system. The Obamacare premium subsidies, which are expiring, were also voted in by Democrats with the expiration date they’re now blaming on Republicans.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Lord Almighty, we place our nation under Your mighty protection. Defend our borders, our cities, and our people from every form of danger—whether seen or unseen. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

PROGRESSIVES: These are the people who keep saying MAGA is a cult.

S&G: One of the largest branches of the German Protestant church has defended a pastor after she blessed a relationship between four men and declared the “polycule” was married “in the eyes of God.”

The event occurred at a “pop-up wedding festival” at the St Paul the Apostle church in Berlin which was offering free blessings for those who wished to avoid “lengthy formalities.”

The pastor said, “You could see right away that there was so much love between them. Why should God have anything against there being four of them rather than two?”

Maybe for the same reason He should have everything against treating marriage like it’s a sideshow carnival attraction.

SECRET SANTA: “Healing is not linear.” [6:10] – May God bless this amazing woman. I need a tissue.

SHUTDOWN: Too bad it took him 42 days too long to remember to stand up for the people who pay his wages.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Teach us to be still and know You. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

DEMOCRATS: Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has announced she will not seek her 21st term. S’about time. She’s 85 years old! She has been one of the people who helped the globalists move our nation from Reagan to Mamdani. CLICK https://x.com/mazemoore/status/1986094352951541858 [:24] to get what I mean.

HEALTH CARE: CLICK https://x.com/RealLindellTV/status/1986193403562893789 [1:13] to hear Hakeem Jeffries blame Republicans for the messes Obamacare and their open border freebies created. Democrats never have to take responsibility for the messes they create.

I truly hope all y’all who need to sign up for a new Medicare plan have an easier time of it than we did. They’re swamped and their computer system is glitchy. It took TWO HOURS. We already knew what plan we wanted before we called, so it was just a question of filling out forms. Two. Hours.

NEW YUCK CITY: CLICK https://x.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/1986375146995916854 [:51] to hear from some young women who are so very happy Mamdani won that they’re cheering, “Sharia law starts now.” ::smh::

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, End the shutdown and save us from socialism and Sharia. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

SECRET SANTA: [5:06] – Another good one.

SHUTDOWN: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/39banyQwmWk to hear Sen. Kennedy describe the two bills he is placing before Congress today. Legislators work for We the People. Their JOB is to do the budgets on time. How DARE they shut down OUR business, because THEY did not do their jobs!! How much more offensive that they continue to draw salaries while the rest of the employees either work for nothing or are on furlough?!?!?!?!

TALK TO THE HAND: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Rz2icYySZDg to hear a short discussion about the real meaning of compassion. Decades ago, I went to a clergy sexual abuse survivors retreat. The woman who specialized in this grueling work called this “entering into your darkness.” I think Jesus’s parable about the lost sheep speaks to this. So do the Works of Mercy. I’ve suffered from people doing this to me, but to be fair, I have also been in a few situations where I had NOTHING spare to offer someone who was hurting and had to push them away to protect myself.

WORST BOOK REVIEW EVER: Free Beacon’s review of Karine Jean-Pierre’s new book is so bad that Glenn Beck read it word-for-word on his show. It starts, “Karine Jean-Pierre can’t stop making history. Earlier this year, the former White House press secretary became the highest-ranking openly queer, French-born black woman with a hyphenated surname to publicly renounce the Democratic Party for being mean to Joe Biden. She is the only black female lesbian immigrant to publish a book about her time in the Biden administration. It is the worst political memoir ever written in the history of the English language.” You can read the rest at the link.
