"Four years ago, I was honored to come to America," said Nigel Farage today at the Arizona MAGA Rally, "to bring the Brexit message. The message that you can beat the establishment. And this is what Donald Trump did. He beat the pollsters. He beat the media. He beat all the predictions. And here's the worst bit: they've never forgiven him for it....They have spent four years trying to de-legitimize him. Four years of the Russia hoax. Four years of the false impeachment. Most human beings under that barrage, would've given up. This is the single most resilient and bravest...

BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I want to ask you to think about something again. Imagine that you are the subject of a major, hourlong TV interview last night on the most-watched cable hour at 8 p.m, and there’s a guy there being interviewed who’s credible, who knows you, who has just spelled out for the country how corrupt you are - and he’s got the evidence. He’s got a laptop computer with the evidence on it, leaving no doubt about the corruption of you and your son and your family. Wouldn’t you think…? If it were you, and you’re accused like...

VENEZUELA, October 26, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – Citing Pope Francis’ recent comments in favor of homosexual civil unions, Venezuela’s far-left president Nicolas Maduro asked his country’s National Assembly to discuss same-sex “marriage” during its next term. “I have friends and acquaintances who were very happy with what the Pope said yesterday…I will leave that task, the task of LGBT marriage, to the next National Assembly,” Reuters reports Maduro saying.

October 26, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – On Sunday, Pope Francis announced he is elevating Washington, D.C. Archbishop Wilton Gregory, to the rank of cardinal. The announcement came just ten days ahead of the U.S. presidential election and the day before the U.S. Senate vote to confirm President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Judge Amy Coney Barrett.

October 26, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) -- Catholics have long extended the benefit of the doubt to Pope Francis when he frequently veers off the path of orthodoxy. With his latest statement regarding same-sex civil unions, there are no benefits in entertaining doubts. Many Catholics sense something is terribly wrong. “What we have to create is a civil union law,” says the pope in the documentary, “Francesco,” just released at a premiere in Rome. “That way, they are legally covered.” Francis’s declaration that homosexual couples need the legal protection of civil unions to protect their “right to a family” leaves no doubt...

Today the CEO of Facebook testified before the Senate Commerce Committee. CEO Mark Zuckerberg claimed that Facebook does not censor or ban users based on their political beliefs. Obviously that is not true as Gateway Pundit has reported numerous times over the past three years. Last week we mentioned that Facebook removed a disabled senior citizen’s page without warning because she was conservative. Today we report another famous Facebook page has been banned for selling Trump merchandise.

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Deputies arrested a Florida woman accused of a fraudulent return scheme involving dozens of Amazon accounts and thousands of returned items, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office. From March 2015 until August 2020, investigators said Hoai Tibma, 32, operated a scheme in which she reused prepaid shipping labels generated for canceled orders, and then applied them on other returns. The tactic, the sheriff’s office says, would make it appear that she had paid for her own shipping costs on the returns when she actually did not. Tibma completed 42,000 individual returns on the 31 different...

October 27, 2020 (The Catholic Thing) — I expect that various cardinals and bishops will make public statements for and against this new teaching. Cardinal Burke has already issued a powerful reply that may be read by clicking here. Divisions, already in existence over other hotly-contested questions, will grow wider. No “bridge-building” will result from this latest misstep. Those who accept the Church’s perennial teaching on homosexuality will be accused of being anti-Catholic enemies of the pope. But can that be true?
