The Vindication of Cardinal Zen“If you don’t do stupid things, you won’t end up in tragedy.” - Chinese ProverbBEFORE THE INK was dry on the CCP/Bergoglio secret pact, tragedy unfolded. It was inevitable and totally predictable. The power hungry Bergoglio desperately wanted a deal with the global powerhouse CCP. Disaster ensued. Bergoglio’s recklessness united the world in condemnation of his covert and nefarious pact with the devil. See here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. Bergoglio was repeatedly warned by Hong Kong Cardinal Zen that the CCP could not be trusted to uphold their end of the secret...

During the 2016 elections, Kellyanne served first as a campaign advisor to candidate Trump and then as his campaign manager, while her husband co-founded the Lincoln Project with the express purpose of keeping Trump out of the White House. After the inauguration, she became senior counselor to the president, while George continued to lambast Trump at every opportunity on social media.

The Pandemic Treaty was big news last year until it was "defeated." But it wasn't actually defeated and now it's about to be signed by Joe Biden. Why is nobody talking about it? How do you con conservatives into backing off on an issue? You tell them you’re sorry and you won’t do it again. We saw it with PayPal who apologized for the “mistake” of threatening to confiscate $2500 from users for wrongthink. Conservatives saw this apology as a victory and stopped pressing the point. But the $2500 penalty still remains and nobody’s talking about it. That’s nothing compared...

After surrendering to Democrats on a myriad of hot-button issues, Senate Republicans may get yet another chance to sell out their base before the year’s end — this time, on a last-minute immigration bill reportedly engineered by North Carolina GOP Sen. Thom Tillis that would provide amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants. According to reporting from melodramatic Washington Post columnist Greg Sargent, Tillis and Arizona Democrat Sen. Kyrsten Sinema are pressing for the upper chamber to consider their bipartisan “immigration reform” bill before Congress’s current lame-duck session ends later this month. While the legislation would apparently provide more funding for...

Found this video on Twitter today:"Here you have the stolen election in the USA last week, in black and white. Couriers dump illegal postal votes in special mailboxes set up by the municipality. They take cards when they do it, to get paid by the Democrats for "work" done. A soft coup in black and white. Nobody does anything"

THE GREAT SIN OF PRIESTS TODAY is to preach what they believe people want to hear instead of what people need to hear to follow Jesus with the cross and arrive to heaven for all eternity. Priests who do not spend at least one hour in church before the tabernacle, with our Eucharistic Lord each day, very often suffer from loneliness and thus do not want to lose their friends or offend anyone. Thus there are very few priests who have the courage to do as the saints, such as Saint John the Baptist, the “greatest born of women” (Mt...

Oil prices are a common topic of conversation around the office water cooler these days. As you might expect, perspective matters. The folks at the Halliburton, (NYSE: HAL), office in Midland, Texas likely view the advent of $100 WTI much more warmly than many others whose living doesn’t depend on it directly. At the other end of the spectrum, truckers, the good folks who deliver everything from baby formula to hamburger patties, are pleading for relief from diesel prices that have doubled in the space of a year. The old saying, “One man’s meat, is another man’s poison,” probably never...
