[Catholic Caucus] Archbishop Lenga Will Not Respect Sanctions “Christ gave me the authority through the Church to proclaim the Truth, and I will do this until I die,” retired Archbishop Jan Lenga, 69, declared after being de facto suspended by Włocławek Bishop Wiesław Mering, Poland.Although “forbidden” to speak to the media, Lenga told WRealu24.tv (February 22, video below) that neither Mering nor anyone else nor a downgrading will prevent him from proclaiming Christ. He calls on Francis and the "poor bishops" to convert.Michał Kołodziej writes on Twitter.com that Lenga recently began to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass and is in...

The U.S. Founders never would have adopted Chuck Todd's dangerous proposition that bureaucrats be allowed to operate a police force without political accountability. So much of the drama of the last three years of the Trump administration is about the conflict between the Constitution, which requires political oversight of the bureaucracy, and the Resistance’s strongly held view that political oversight of the administrative state is evil.The Russia collusion hoax was perpetrated by bureaucrats who admitted they were motivated by a a belief that their foreign policy vision was more appropriate and legitimate than the one chosen by the American people...

Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D., N.J.) expressed frustration with her Democratic colleagues at a recent town hall, admitting they block legislation because they "don't want to give the president a win." Speaking at a Livingston, New Jersey, town hall on Thursday, Sherrill revealed the "shockingly different mindset" of congressional Democrats who prioritize resisting President Donald Trump over passing legislation that could help their constituents.

Whether the senators put the trial out of its misery this week or drag it on for months, the outcome is a foregone conclusion. Here are the eight big reasons Trump won impeachment. President Donald Trump will not be removed from office following his impeachment by the House of Representatives and a trial in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has reportedly told colleagues they have the votes to finish things this week.Whether the senators put the trial out of its misery this week or drag it on for months, the outcome is a foregone conclusion. Here are the...

UPDATE: From the National Council of Resistance in Iran A Large number of people have joined the demonstration by the students at Amir Kabir University, which has spilled over surrounding streets. Thousands of people gathered in Hafez Street and areas around it, chanting, “Death to the dictator,” “Death to liars,” “Have no fear, we are all together,” Death to this murderous regime,”....

2020 is the year when a variety of prior democrat operations will converge with a single goal in mind. Predictably we will see several years of prior effort beginning to merge, and it begins today. NOTE: For interested readers it will be impossible for me to summarize the background for each step prior to putting the next puzzle piece into place. Therefore I strongly suggest bookmarking posts for later reference because it would take tens of thousands of words to understand for anyone who steps into the light mid-way through. [Just an FYI] Tomorrow, January 3rd, 2020, the House Judiciary...

“And look at impeachment,” Strassel told me. “This is the watering down of a very sacred process in the Constitution, and we are setting ourselves up to, at some point, decide we’ll use impeachment anytime we want to settle political differences, and it was never supposed to be this way. “These are all boundaries that have been transgressed by a resistance that is allowed to take these steps because they just don’t like Donald Trump.” “They’ve never accepted the results of that election and believe they can take any action they want, and they’ve been trying to overturn the results...

Dame Mary Barraco now and then. She was knighted "Dame" by the King of Belgium in 2004 for her work as a freedom fighter. (Courtesy of the Holocaust Commission of the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater) Mary Sigillo Barraco never forgot what happened to her inside a Gestapo torture cell. She couldn’t forget her beatings if she tried, for she bore the mental and physical scars for the rest of her life. She’d landed there at just 19 after fighting the Nazi regime every way she could: flirting with guards to rescue prisoners of war, working on an underground...

Rob Reiner, the Hollywood filmmaker turned full-time left-wing agitator, is encouraging people to take to the streets to show their support for House Democrats’ effort to impeach President Donald Trump. Reiner tweeted Tuesday that he wants to see people demonstrating in the streets, exhorting his millions of followers to join a series of nationwide rallies sponsored by the far-left MoveOn the night before the House of Representatives votes on impeachment.

"Here is my strategy on the cold war: we win, they lose." Ronald Reagan. President Trump has done a great job so far. The fact that he is still in office and has had some successes in spite of being continually sabotaged is remarkable. But President Trump is losing in his attempt to clean up the federal government and drain the swamp. Most Americans do not realize how extensive the attempt to destroy the Trump Presidency is. Those who work against the president face no consequences for their actions. President Trump only has to lose once and he will be...

As usual, leftists take the high ground and control the language and as usual conservatives let them. Instead of calling their treasonous behavior a resistance, lets tell the truth, it is seditious, treasonous, anti-constitutional, and protecting the kleptocratcy that has robbed the taxpayers blind.

On November 8th of this year Lawfare founder Benjamin Wittes sent a rather curious tweet proclaiming his undying devotion to former FBI lawyer Lisa Page. At the time it seemed rather odd and out of no-where; but today it makes sense. At the time of Witte’s tweet Lisa Page would have been scheduling her coming out narrative, and consulting with the DOJ/FBI “beach friend” community for PR advice. After several weeks of planning and careful roll-out organization, noted by several weeks of contact with mutually aligned journalists, today Ms. Page steps into the spotlight with her introductory article in the...

Another day, another Deep State participant outed. ICIG Michael Atkinson altered the whistleblower form to allow for second-hand information, which allowed suspected Schiff whistleblower Eric Ciaramella to present a bogus accusation on the President. Atkinson also oversaw the FBI lovers who altered the FISA warrant. This will soon be reported in the DOJ IG’s FISA Abuse report. Today we point out that Atkinson’s wife is connected to Fusion GPS. What a mess! Last weekend we learned from another leak to the Washington Post, that an individual in Obama’s FBI altered documents that provided support for a FISA Warrant obtained to...

The anonymous "senior official" who has detailed their efforts to undermine Donald Trump as part of the "resistance" within the president's administration says their identity will be revealed "before the 2020 election." The official in question became famous for penning a New York Times Op-Ed last year titled, "I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration." On Tuesday, the anonymous official participated in an "Ask Me Anything," or AMA, session on Reddit. ... One user had a simple question for the anonymous official: "Why do you have so little integrity to come out publicly and speak?" The official...

Here come the hyper-partisan hounds. A new nonprofit called American Oversight launched this week to combat President Trump's "culture of impunity." The outfit declared itself "nonpartisan" and claims its crusaders will fight for a "transparent and ethical government." But like Waylon Jennings once crooned, "Baby, that dog won't hunt." These Democrat operatives aren't interested in accountability. Their mission is to attack, obstruct and destroy their political opponents at all costs. Executive Director and Obama donor Austin Evers is certainly familiar with the "culture of impunity." He worked as a lawyer at Williams and Connolly -- the firm representing Hillary Clinton...

Apparently, it's not enough that leftist hedge fund billionaire and 'stateless statesman' George Soros and his non-government organization front groups made a lunge to take over much of eastern Europe, visibly in the case of Ukraine during the Maidan revolution. Nor is the Soros seeding of first the Obama administration, and then the Trump administration, with former operatives of his from other outfits. Some, in the case of Trump, are now testifying as witnesses in the impeachment hearings. Now, the Soros cash is rising to flood levels, targeting GOP Congress members to vote in support of impeaching Trump. Here's the...

For most of the last three years, Donald Trump's critics have scoffed at supposed "conspiracy theories" that claimed a "deep state" of bureaucrats were aborting the Trump presidency. We have been told the word "coup" is hyperbole that reveals the paranoid minds of Trump supporters. Yet oddly, many people brag that they are proud members of a deep state and occasionally boast about the idea of a coup. Recently, former acting CIA chief John McLaughlin proclaimed in a public forum, "Thank God for the deep state." Former CIA director John Brennan agreed and praised the "deep state people" for...

Full title: "Russia case agent Strzok cited for misconduct, security violation and ‘exceptionally poor judgment’ in FBI memos" This summer, ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok filed a lawsuit suggesting his firing was political retribution for having run the bureau’s counterintelligence investigation into the now debunked allegations that Donald Trump and Russia colluded to hijack the 2016 election. The Justice Department has responded to the lawsuit in a big way, releasing to the court presiding over the civil case Strzok’s official misconduct file that concluded the former FBI supervisor exhibited “a gross lack of professionalism and exceptionally poor judgment.” It shows the...

In what will undoubtedly be interpreted by many as an act of defiance against President Trump, the top Navy SEAL, Rear Admiral Collin Green, will notify Navy SEAL Edward Gallagher and three other officers that their case is being sent to a review board which could end in their expulsion from the SEALS. "This is a review of their suitability to be a SEAL," a Navy Officer said. The action would come less than a week after Mr. Trump intervened in the military justice case against Gallagher by ordering him restored to the rank of Chief Petty Officer, despite his...

The author provides the following from Bill Barr's excellent recent speech to The Federalist Society. Immediately after President Trump won election, opponents inaugurated what they called “The Resistance,” and they rallied around an explicit strategy of using every tool and maneuver available to sabotage the functioning of his Administration. Now, “resistance” is the language used to describe insurgency against rule imposed by an occupying military power. It obviously connotes that the government is not legitimate. This is a very dangerous – indeed incendiary – notion to import into the politics of a democratic republic. What it means is that, instead...
