A symbolic sign after the Pachamama worship at St. Peter’s: Papal Altar unused for months now'It seems that they continue to dismantle everything.'Professor Armin Schwibach / Twitter Share on Parler Share on Facebook 28 Share on Twitter 11 Share via Email Print this Page By Maike Hickson Follow Maike December 18, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – Something happened in the Vatican in the last months that has been largely overlooked: the High Altar of St. Peter's – the Papal Altar, which is situated right on top of the tomb of St. Peter himself – has been left unused now for many months....

Democrat Stacey Abrams cheered 7.7 million registered voters in Georgia just in time for the January 5th Senate runoff elections. Does this surprise anyone? In November Democrats, with the assistance of Republican leadership in the state, were able to flip a reliably Republican state to Joe Biden who campaigned in his basement. Democrats used dead voters, criminals, phantom voters, late-night ballot dumps, criminal drop boxes and stashed suitcases filled with Biden ballots to steal the state, so far, for Dementia Joe. ...... Snip...... The GOP DID NOTHING to fix the criminal activity in the election! And now Stacey Abrams has...

A SEVERE VARIANT of the coronavirus has been detected in South Africa which could explain the rapid spread of a second wave that affects younger people, the health minister said. Known as the 501.V2 Variant, it was identified by South African researchers and details have been sent to the World Health Organization, Zwelini Mkhize said in a statement. A team led by the Kwazulu-Natal Research Innovation and Sequencing Platform (KRISP), has sequenced hundreds of virus samples since the pandemic began, and “noticed that a particular variant has increasingly dominated the findings of the samples collected in the past two months,”...

KILMEADE: “You think the election was stolen, you tweeted out?” PAUL: “Absolutely. I think there’s a great deal of fraud and it’s not the first time. I mean, you know the famous story of LBJ, he’s got scotch in one hand, illegal votes in a shoe box in the other and he turns them at midnight and they say, ‘Uh oh, your opponent turned his in 2 hours later and won the election.’ He said, ‘Arg, never again,’ he says. So he comes back 2 years later, and he says we are not turning our illegal votes in until my...

Raw data from an API direct feed on election night proves that voter fraud occurred in Arizona, a group of data science experts allege in a new video posted on Rumble Thursday. The data scientists, who wish to remain anonymous at the present time, flatly claim that “Arizona certified fraudulent votes.” In their video, they highlight four counties in Arizona—Maricopa, Pinal, Coconino, and Pima—that showed anomalous activities on election night, including vote switches (or laundering) on a massive scale. When votes are tabulated, they shouldn’t be added of decremented,” the narrator says. “They shouldn’t be switched—either across candidates or within...

The year 2020 has been most unusual. It started with an unprecedented global pandemic caused by the CCP virus, and it’s concluding with the U.S. presidential election, which has captivated the world. On election night, on Nov. 3, an assortment of anomalies were observed, followed by a large number of specific allegations of election fraud. As the integrity of the election continued to be questioned and evidence continued to emerge, most mainstream media stuck to a one-sided narrative by calling the 2020 election the most secure in American history, and sought to silence opposing voices. The results of the 2020...

An ubiased by-county analysis of over 3000 U.S. counties shows Joe Biden received 5.6 % more votes in counties using Dominion Voting Systems. "If a network system of computers was used to fraudulently affect vote counts...the results would look exactly like this." ...

By David Martin Pope Francis recently published a new book titled, Let us Dream: A Path to a Better Future, which is being touted “an inspiring and actionable blueprint for building a better world for all humanity” (Simon & Schuster). What is strange is that the book is void of the instructions for a better world given to us by Christ. There is nothing about doing penance (Mt 3:2) and obeying rules and commandments (John 14:15). In his book, Francis talks about "creating something new", "our new principle", and "reimagining a new world." This immediately calls to mind the lyrics...

Committee assignments are one of the least eye-catching parts of politics, but they’re also one of the most important ways in which actual political power is wielded. Certain committees in the House, like Energy and Commerce, Ways and Means, and Appropriations, have outsized influence and money power.... But in a surprise, last-second Steering Committee meeting on exclusive committee assignments Thursday, which was scheduled at 10 p.m. the night before, centrist Democrats put on a show of support for Rice and against AOC, in what looks to have been a process-defying attempt to keep AOC out of the seat.... After Rep....

How come there’s no visible water in this video of people counting absentee ballots in Fulton Country, Georgia, after CBS News said they “stopped” counting them because “a water pipe has broken”?In this video from election night, CBS News says that Fulton County, Georgia “stopped” counting the absentee ballots for the night because “a water pipe has broken.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C25DAAHZdEwThis next video shows most people leaving. But a few people stay behind to continue counting the absentee ballots. And there’s no visible water in the video. That sure sounds like evidence of cheating to me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keANzinHWUA

La Marseillaise, sung by Mireille Mathieu. American English subtitles. Grab your weapons, citizens! Form your battalions! Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood Water our fields! Liberty, beloved Liberty, Fight with your defenders! (repeat) Under our flags, let victory Hasten to your manly tones! Liberty, beloved Liberty, Fight with your defenders! (repeat) Under our flags, let victory Hasten to your manly tones! We will enter the pit When our elders are no longer there; There, we will find their dust And the traces of their virtues. (repeat) Much less eager to outlive them Than to share their casket,...

Explanation: When the shadow of the Moon raced across planet Earth's southern hemisphere on December 14, sky watchers along the shadow's dark central path were treated to the only total solar eclipse of 2020. During the New Moon's shadow play this glistening diamond ring was seen for a moment, even in cloudy skies. Known as the diamond ring effect, the transient spectacle actually happens twice. Just before and immediately after totality, a thin sliver of solar disk visible behind the Moon's edge creates the appearance of a shiny jewel set in a dark ring. This dramatic snapshot from the path...

I had a briefing from the FBI today to learn more about Eric Swalwell’s ties to a reported-spy from China, and one thing is now crystal clear: Swalwell should no longer be on the Intel Committee.

The scale of a sophisticated cyberattack on the U.S. government that was unearthed this week is much bigger than first anticipated. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said in a summary Thursday that the threat “poses a grave risk to the federal government.” It added that “state, local, tribal, and territorial governments as well as critical infrastructure entities and other private sector organizations” are also at risk. CISA believes the attack began at least as early as March. Since then, multiple government agencies have reportedly been targeted by the hackers, with confirmation from the Energy and Commerce departments so far.

Diners in New York City – who are still allowed to eat at restaurants as long as they sit in the snow – can no longer use the indoor bathrooms. At least that's what the rule said at first. On Thursday night, the administration of Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo enacted new rules. The initial guidance, released publicly by Kapil Longani, counsel to Mayor Bill de Blasio, stated that "customers are not allowed to enter the inside of a State Liquor Authority-licensed establishment for any reason while the guidance is in effect," The New York Post reported. But that "guidance" wasn't...
