Patrick Rooney, Founder of Old School™, answers the question of why we should have known SCOTUS would refuse to hear the Texas election case.

Most people today regard America’s experiment with alcohol prohibition as a national embarrassment, rightly repealed in 1933. So it will be with the closures and lockdowns of 2020, someday. In 1920, however, to be for the repeal of the prohibition that was passed took courage. You were arguing against prevailing opinion backed by celebratory scientists and exalted social thinkers. What you were saying flew in the face of “expert consensus.” There is an obvious analogy to Lockdowns 2020. My first inkling of this prohibition history came in reading transcripts of the then-famous Radio Priest James Gillis from the 1920s. He...

Given the spread of misinformation about Covid-19, Just Facts is providing a trove of rigorously documented facts about this disease and its impacts. These include some essential facts that have been absent or misreported in much of the media’s coverage of this issue. This research also includes a groundbreaking study to determine the lethality of Covid-19 based on the most comprehensive available measure: the total years of life that it will rob from all people. This accords with the CDC’s tenet that “the allocation of health resources must consider not only the number of deaths by cause” but also the...

A Texas state representative is working on legislation that would allow Texans to vote on a Brexit-style referendum to leave the Union and become a stand-alone nation. Republican state representative Kyle Biedermann of Fredericksburg announced in a social media post on Tuesday that he is crafting a ‘Texit’ bill that would put secession on the ballot in Texas. “The federal government is out of control and does not represent the values of Texans. That is why I am committing to file legislation this session that will allow a referendum to give Texans a vote for the State of Texas to...

Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) has called on Speaker Nancy Pelosi to bar 126 GOP representatives from the House, arguing that their support for the failed, baseless Texas lawsuit seeking to hijack the presidential election violated the Constitution. The Texas suit, supported by 17 other state attorneys general, was rejected Friday by the U.S. Supreme Court. President Donald Trump had attempted to join the self-serving suit, which sought to jettison votes in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, whose voters chose President-elect Joe Biden. Pascrell accused the House members who signed an amicus brief supporting the action — including House Minority Leader...

CNN on Hunter Biden’s laptop before the election: “There has never been any issues in terms of corruption.” CNN after the election: “Federal criminal investigation into Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings in China.”CNN on Hunter Biden’s laptop before the election:“There has never been any issues in terms of corruption.”Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSB_fQHbSiACNN after the election:“Federal criminal investigation into Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings in China.”Source: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/12/09/politics/hunter-biden-tax-investigtation/index.html

Joe Biden can’t be trusted to represent America on the world stage. Not only is he prone to verbal gaffes, but he is also not committed to American prosperity. Why is it that Biden can’t be trusted? Because he is a candidate that is very likely to bow from pressure from his party to give in on trade. Countries like China and Mexico are hoping that a Democrat wins. They know that they don’t have the political or personal willpower to carry the fight to the end. Instead, Democrats will bow down to short term pressure from competitor nations. That...

Trump appeared to be referring to what is known as a contingent election, in which the House of Representatives chooses the next president if no candidate wins an absolute majority of votes in the Electoral College — an outcome that would be more likely if the results in key states were in dispute. -Prez Trump has clearly discussed and been briefed on a strategy to contest the election via Constitutional means, first through the courts and then through House, saying at a Sept. 26 rally in Pennsylvania: “And I don’t want to end up in the Supreme Court and I...

There’s nothing like a little Christmas miracle to inspire cheer after the chaos of 2020.On Dec. 21, people will have the opportunity to experience the same awe as the three wise men when they looked to the sky and saw the “Christmas Star,” or the “Star of Bethlehem,” shining brightly.In an event that has not occurred in almost 800 years, Jupiter and Saturn will appear to almost collide in a phenomenon scientists refer to as a “conjunction,” making them look like an incredibly bright “double planet,”according to a report from Forbes Media.Rice University astronomer Patrick Hartigan explained that lesser alignments...

"John, basically, made it very clear that if he were an American he would vote for Reagan...."

The show's official name is "The Cross Connection." But truth-in-advertising would have dubbed it, "All About Identity Politics." Because that's how host Tiffany Cross explicitly pitched her new MSNBC weekend-morning show to her audience today. Cross began her opening by describing the show as "our home." And by that, Cross made clear that the only people invited into that home were various communities of color and sexual minorities, whose various identities she mentioned multiple times. The only reference to whites was to the way voters had "unseat[ed] a beneficiary of years of white supremacy." Get the rest of the story...

Functionality is built into the Dominion voting machines that makes it possible to create votes. “Fake stacks” of ballots can be easily generated AUTOMATICALLY by the Dominion Voting software as noted in this tweet:

Hall of Fame football coach Tony Dungy took issue with Democratic Georgia Senate candidate Raphael Warnock’s declaration that he is a “pro-choice pastor.” “Rev Warner may be a pastor,” Dungy, who was a head coach in the NFL for 13 years, tweeted about Warnock. “My question would be 'Is he a Christian?' That is, does he follow the teachings of Jesus and does he believe that the Bible is the absolute word of God? Tony Dungy @TonyDungy · Dec 9 Rev Warner may be a pastor. My question would be “Is he a Christian?” That is, does he follow the...

President Trump on Friday signed an order giving federal workers a paid day off work on Christmas Eve. The news was a welcome surprise for workers who expected at most a half day. Trump’s order says, “All executive departments and agencies of the Federal Government shall be closed and their employees excused from duty on Thursday, December 24, 2020, the day before Christmas Day.” Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton only gave half days when Christmas fell on a Friday, as it does this year...

Country music legend Charley Pride has died at the age of 86 of complications from COVID-19 in Dallas, his representative announced Saturday.

I don't think we know what we have in the word of God. For Romans 1:16 says that it is the power of God unto salvation to them that believe. Don't limit the word salvation, it is taken from two greek words soteria and sozo which means to deliver, protect, heal, preserve, and make whole. But, even though it's the power of God to them that believe we need to know how to put that power to work. Romans 10:10 says with the heart(spirit) we believe and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Confession means to say the...

SCOTUS REJECTS Texas Lawsuit! Here’s Why THIS IS NOT OVER BY A LONGSHOT!!! (Substantive part of video begins at 3:45.) Giuliani's Team has filed suits in the 4 states (WI, MI, PA and GA)where Trump DOES HAVE STANDING since he was directly affected by the fraud. Because of these case and additional cases filed by Sean Parnell, the Dominion case and others, Turley believes there is a solid chance that the President of the Senate, Mike Pence, will not certify the electors, who vote on December 14th. As a result, a fully contested election will get thrown to the House...

Sidney Powell said her secret witness who can prove the election was stolen from President Trump was a former military intelligence official in court filings, but that's apparently inaccurate. Powell, a former federal prosecutor, has told the courts she wants to seal "Spider's" identity (sometimes referred to as "Spyder"), whom she said was an electronic intelligence analyst for the Arizona-based 305th Military Intelligence Battalion. "Spider," however, never completed the entry-level training course, said Meredith Mingledorff, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Army Intelligence Center of Excellence, the Washington Post reported. Even with her request to hide her witness's name, one of...
