So...Who Wants to Take a Vacation to D.C.?

Here's what happened Saturday night and in the wee hours of Sunday morning in Washington, D.C.



I've always thought of D.C. as my home town (as much as a Navy brat can have a home town). Every other tour of duty for my dad was in D.C. We lived in suburban Virginia and suburban Maryland. I went to college in D.C. right down the street from Catholic University. My friends and I used to walk the mile or so to Brookland in northeast to shop, or we'd take the bus "downtown" to go to Woodies and Hechts. I student taught in the Shaw neighborhood at Shaw Junior High School.

Democrats are Fleeing Their Traditional Party! JFK and MLK Wouldn't Recognize Today's Democrat Party!

Well...some Democrats are waking up. Biden and Harris keep saying that Trump has done nothing in the past four years. That's a head-shaking lie! 

Sunday Meditation: The Goosebump Moment at the Republican Convention

Jesus Christ will honor those who honor His Mother. Pray the rosary for the election. If Trump loses we will see the new world order come raging in like a tsunami. 

More on the Wuhan Pandemic, the Vaccine, and Masks: Do the Research

I believe that each of us must be our own advocate. I want to know what the best protocols are for preventing the Wuhan virus or minimizing its effects if I get it. I've posted a number of articles about HCQ. Here's an article with another protocol. I don't give medical advice, but this is worth talking to your primary care doctor about. 

Eastern Virginia Medical School Offers this Protocol for the Wuhan Virus

Fr. Tom Collins: Does Church Policy Respect the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharistic Particles?

Priests frequently touch the communicant
when they give Communion in the hand.

Current Church policies seem to be indicating that it is more important for Catholics to show profound respect for the potential presence of the impersonal microscopic Corona virus in our churches than for the Real Presence of Christ in the microscopic Eucharistic particles, which are routinely left on the floor by many who receive Communion in the hand.

Here is President Trump's banned campaign ad

Snopes says it's false that President Trump's campaign ad was banned by YouTube and Facebook, yet I could not find it on YouTube to post, so it must be true that they banned it. However, here it is in the link below. Just click the link and be fortified by our great United States President who stands between us and the abyss.

For Unresponsive "Comotose" Patients a New Simple Test

Give her the sniff test!

New Test Can Predict Recovery after Coma

I've been studying end of life issues and "brain death" for years. When I read about a "sniff test" that can predict whether a person will "wake up" I was thrilled! So simple! Just see if the person sniffs at strong odors:

According to Noam Sobel, PhD, of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, one of the authors of the article and speaking to MedpageToday:

When You Listen to the Democrats Claim they Love God Remember This from John Adams...

"Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God Service, when it is violating all his Laws."

                    John Adams

Can We Stop the Mailbox Madness Now?

Postmaster General: USPS Ready for Election; Calls Dems’ Conspiracy Theories ‘Outrageous’

The media mob work hand in glove with liberal politicians. Since Trump's election they've jumped on every issue they can use to attack our duly elected president -- one hoax after another. The mailbox madness is just the latest nonsense to try to get Trump. The talking heads from CNN, MSNBC, etc. are shameful in their pandering to the leftist lynch mob. 

Ted Koppel recently called out the media bias on the part of the Washington Post and the New York Times.

Headlines from the Twilight Zone (or the Comedy Zone)

Don't just mask Fauci; gag him!

Dr. Fauci has to shut up because of vocal cord surgery! What a gift for America!

George Zimmerman suing Black Lives Matter! The origin of the movement is based on a filthy lie painting George Zimmerman as a racist who committed a cold-blooded murder. Trayvon Martin was the assailant. He was on drugs and bashing Zimmerman's head into the cement when Zimmerman shot him. But lying is what Marxists do. Let's pray that a jury makes them pay for it like the slander against Nick Sandmann and the Covington boys.

There's No Place Like South Dakota: Kristi Noem for President in 2024!

Kristi Noem didn't shut down her state and they had one of the lowest death rates from the Wuhan virus in the country. She is solidly pro-life. Pray for this lady; she is beautiful inside and out! Kristi Noem for president in 2024!

Guest Post from Fr. Tom Collins: REPENTANCE -- The Royal Road to Spiritual Regeneration

Return of the Prodigal Son, Rembrandt

by Fr. Tom Collins

When St. John Paul II introduced the new Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary, he included, as the Third Mystery, The Proclamation of the Kingdom with the Call to Repentance. Unfortunately, in a society that tends to view repentance in a negative light, this mystery is frequently subject to being abbreviated as merely, The Proclamation of the Kingdom. Yet, as the example and teaching of so many saints have so clearly pointed out, ongoing repentance is the key to authentic spiritual regeneration. It is important to stress the fact that authentic repentance must be ongoing. 

Who Cares about Black Lives? Not the Democrats Running Baltimore!

Powerful ad,....

...but I could never support this woman since she supports free over the counter birth control and abortion. 

Black Lives Matter: The Mobocracy in Action

August 18, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – America is a deeply divided country, raising the question of whether we will continue to be “One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” Despite the constant mantra that “diversity is our strength,” reality confirms the opposite. Our vitriolic diversity foments hatred and violence, a fact witnessed to many times throughout history. Have we forgotten the genocides of Armenia and Rwanda? At this point in history, our divisions run deep and often ugly. We are Democrat vs. Republican, law and order vs. chaos and rioting, black vs. white, tyranny vs. freedom, etc. Increasingly, disagreements result in "mob" action promoted by "progressive" politicians, liberal courts, and prosecutors who justify and enable rioting and violence both by their words and actions. Organized handlers infiltrate and instigate violent mob action. Police find pallets of bricks, knapsacks with incendiary devices, and other riot gear in strategic locations as they did in Kansas City. They also intercept social media contacts by organizers directing mob movements during riots. [Read more...]

The Great Mailbox Robbery! Democrats Go Ballistic...Again!

What a comedy routine! 

Is This Hate-Filled, Foul-Mouth Black Racist, John Thompson, the Face of the Democrat Party?

What if Trump endorsed a candidate who called for burning down the Shaw neighborhood in Washington, D.C. Actually when I was at Trinity during the 1968 riots, protestors did a pretty good job of burning it down themselves. I was familiar with the area because I was student teaching at Shaw Junior High School that year. There are still boarded up buildings in the area.

Yes, America, Systemic Racism Exists, the Media and Academia are Full of It!

"Actual racism means nothing to these people. What matters to them is whether they can use racial division to advance the partisan political agenda."

Yup! Tucker nailed it. 

Guest Post: Bob Marshall, former Virginia State Delegate, Warns about COVID-19 Vaccine

THE PERILOUS QUEST TO FAST TRACK THE COVID-19 VACCINE

I have recently completed a major study of the confusion, difficulties and dangers in the effort to fast-track universal vaccination against Covid-19 (now in the CatholicCulture.org library).

This brief commentary is designed to highlight the issues quickly so that everyone can be aware of them, but of course I hope that many will read the entire study.

In a nutshell, then, governments worldwide are considering the following to address Covid-19:

• Mandatory vaccination of every person in the world with fast-tracked, never-before-approved vaccines that can alter genes;
• Vaccines using tissue from aborted children;
• Vaccines developed without animal testing prior to human trials.

Concerned citizens can still weigh in to affect the outcome!

Nobody among the Democrat True Believers will Care about Joe's lascivious past....

....but it tells you something about the man's character (or lack thereof)!

#DefundtheUSCCB: And Demand they fire Donna Grimes

I'm not in favor of riots, but this is one building that the rioters and looters are welcome to!

USCCB official 'elated' over Harris, Biden's pro-choice VP pick

Donna Toliver Grimes is the associate director of African American affairs in the U.S. bishops’ Secretariat of Cultural Diversity in the Church. She said Kamala Harris will make, “policy that is favorable to people on the margins.”

Kamala Harris: No "Pragmatic Moderate!" She's "Hard Left!"

Watch Kellyanne Conway make the case WITH THE FACTS!

The New York Times calls Kamala Harris a "pragmatic moderate." Well...she's pragmatic all right! She's obviously willing to do whatever's necessary to advance her political career -- even be on the ticket with a man she considers a racist and sexual predator. No surprise really! With most Democrats principles are malleable. Stick your finger in the wind and adjust them according to the popular meme of the moment (or who your donors are).

Hydroxychloroquine Fact Sheet Part 3: Proof is in the Sources!

See part 1 and part 2 of the HCQ fact sheet! HCQ is SAFE and EFFECTIVE. Not only that, but the evidence is mounting. Check out the sources in the Frontline Doctors' White Paper. How much longer can frauds like Fauci hide the truth?

America’s Frontline Doctors published the following in their White Paper: x 

[S]even months into the pandemic there is overwhelming evidence accumulating that HCQ is also effective for Covid-19. There are dozens of studies demonstrating its effectiveness from all around the world. From China to France to Saudi Arabia to Iran to Italy to India to New York City to Michigan to Brazil. 

The Left Will Call All These Voters "Uncle Tom," I Call Them Independent Thinkers!

What have liberals done for the black (or the white) community?

Catholic Culture in Art and Literature

Allegory of the Catholic Faith by Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675)

Western art and literature represent a major part of the Catholic legacy advancing the true, the good and the beautiful. Many of those writing and painting during the Protestant Revolution expressed their Catholic beliefs in art and writing.

Behold Your Future

THE GREAT RESET

Every inch of our lives is being planned for us.

The Left (Joe Biden) will literally hand America over to the globalists.

There will be no national borders.

There will be no individuality.

There will be no God.

There will be no Catholic Church.

There will only be the Godless elite running the world...and the rest of us that they rule.

People, awake from your slumber.

THE GREAT RESET

History Helps Inoculate Us against the Zeitgeist!

How praying and reading history can help deliver America from BLM Marxist agitators

One caveat: Be sure you are reading honest historians and not the guys who work at 1984's "Ministry of Truth!"

August 10, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — George Santayana, philosopher, novelist and poet, was known for his aphorisms. He penned the statement, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” The Bible affirms that truth. “There is nothing new under the sun.” As we see Marxist anarchy exploding all over our country in the name of  Black Lives Matter (BLM), those with a sense of history recognize its eerie familiarity....

Here's what's really happening. Wake up. Or have the life choked out of you by Satan.

How Long Before We're Melbourne?

Susan posted a short video on Saturday about the situation in Melbourne, a province of Victoria, Australia that has turned into a complete police state over the coronavirus. If you aren't horrified at the police action described in the video, you know nothing about history.  Police are smashing the car windows of innocent citizens because they won't give their information at their "check points." They're fining the populace millions of dollars for not wearing masks or daring to go out of their homes. Melbourne is currently a gestapo state. Going out to McDonalds for a burger is "not acceptable." 

Sunday Meditation: Please, Lord, Send Us Shepherds!

What sad times we live in. 

I just finished reading an article at The Remnant about Bishop Barron's hissy fit over criticism coming from traditional Catholics about his cavalier dismissal of pastoral duty to help protect the statues of St. Junipero Serra being destroyed by rioters. Hey, it's all the laity's job. 

Losing freedom to save 90 year-olds from death (while allowed lockdown "bonk visits"

...conceive more babies to kill by abortion).

A Message to Joe Biden from St. James: "Show Me Your Faith, I'll Show You My Actions."

Joe raises his fist in the atheist Commie salute.
Is that the "bedrock" of your faith, Joe?

On August 6th Joe Biden took issue with President Trump's statement that he's "against God." Like Nancy Pelosi who bristled and went into a tirade when a reporter asked if she "hated Trump," (of course she does!) Biden steamed and immediately responded insisting that his faith is the "bedrock foundation of my life!"

Defunding the Police Will Cost Many Lives Including Addicts Overdosing on Drugs!

Officers Wlliam Palmer and Joseph Hionas
saved the life of an overdose victim at the
ferry terminal on Staten Island in 2017.

Have you seen this positive story? Probably not!

Police Save Thousands of Lives From Drug Overdoses Every Year

How many positive stories do you see about police officers? I certainly don't see many and often have to go searching for the ones I DO see. 

Larry Elder, Truth Teller Extraordinaire, and the Myth of Systemic Racism

Watch him take on Obama, who experienced privilege from the day he was born!



There is no systemic racism in America according to Larry Elder.

If there were it would be hard to explain how Obama was elected by all those systemically "racist" white voters who put him in office -- twice!

Hydroxychloroquine Fact Sheet Part 2: Not Only is HCQ Safe, but It's an Effective Treatment for the Wuhan Virus

See Part 1 of Liberty Counsel's Fact Sheet here. And now let's get to part 2, which makes the case for HCQ as an effective treatment for the Wuhan virus. As in the last post, I've included my comments in blue italics.

Hydroxychloroquine and COVID-19

With substantial evidence that HCQ is a safe treatment for COVID-19, it is time to turn attention to the second question: does HCQ relieve symptoms of COVID-19 and reduce the chance of dying from it? 

Hydroxychloroquine Fact Sheet Part 1: Don't Let Politics Kill You! The Medication is Safe!

Liberty Counsel has published an informative and detailed fact sheet on hydroxychloroquine. Everyone who's concerned, especially those who are afraid of the Wuhan virus, needs to read it. You can download or print the fact sheet here. I'm going to publish it with commentary over the next few days. My comments are in  blue italics. Let's start with safety:

Hydroxychloroquine and COVID-19 

Virginia Delegate Calls Northam's Ban on Hydroxychloroquine "Political." #HCQworks

David LaRock calls on VA
health commissioner to
lift the ban on HCQ!

Of course it is. But even if it weren't, what gives a politician the right to determine how a doctor treats his patients? 

STOP THE HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE BAN IN VIRGINIA!

Loudoun Delegate David LaRock is challenging blackface Governor Northam, through the health commissioner, to lift the ban on the drug which has proved effective and life saving for patients infected with the virus. Want to do the research yourself? LaRock's letter to Virginia's Public Health Commissioner, Dr. Muhammad Norman Oliver, includes a number of links illustrating the safety and effectiveness of the hydroxychloroquine protocol. Read the complete letter here.  Here's a bit:

Did racist Joe Biden call black children "roaches"?

If you think this isn't real....

... then watch this.

How To Get What You Want...just thought I'd mention it

The Mainstream Media's "Peaceful Protests" -- Blue Lives Matter!

Wake up, people. This will eventually come to your quiet town unless you support the rule of law. 

The Mask is Off the Portland Nazis! It Was Never about George Floyd...

...or the fake narrative that Black Lives Matter! Watch this short clip showing protestors burning the bible and flags in Portland! What are they chanting in the background? "F*** Trump?" This was always about November. George Floyd's killing was a gift to these thugs. Read Mundabor's take. Today is Sunday. Go to church and pray the rosary! Keep the Lord's day holy. And then work to elect moral men and women to government. We need honor and integrity in our political leaders! 

It's happened before and I pray that many Americans are taking note.

Two Thumbs Up to Rockford, IL as They Protect the Rights of Citizens Not to be Intimidated by the Mob!

We need more localities to do what this city did. The rioters started mixing it up with police and those attending a "Back the Blue" rally the minute the rally was over. (See the video below.) They tore down the snow fencing around the government center and started causing mayhem.

Something Beautiful for Mary!

It's First Saturday. Shall we do something beautiful for God by honoring His Mother? Please join me in making the Five First Saturdays of Reparation. Pray the rosary and meditate for fifteen minutes on its mysteries. Go to Confession and Communion (within a week or so) for the intention of making reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May this beautiful rendition of the Salve Regina (Hail Queen) be an inspiration and aid. 

These 5 Black Lives Didn't Matter

Apparently these five black lives don't matter to Black Lives Matter.

Nigerian Black Muslims murdered FIVE BLACK LIVES. 

Five beautiful Black men were murdered by five Black Muslims. 

BLM is silent on this matter because it doesn't fit their narrative.

This is black on black so it doesn't matter.
