This is an outline of the events of the past 70 years since Khrushchev announced “We will conquer you from within.” These phases are facets of an overall strategy run in concert with each other like parts of a symphony.Phase 1 – Develop a group of academics that can infiltrate the United States using education and work visas. Route them into the U.S. through other countries. This phase actually started before Khrushchev made his announcement.Phase 2 – Using this small “army”, gain jobs in the teaching profession with universities and colleges as the main target in order to spread the...

Facebook recently removed advertisements for a book critiquing a radical form of feminism, claiming the book didn’t comply with its policies. A message to Guadalupe Gifts, a Catholic gift store, showed that the company rejected the ads for “The Anti-Mary Exposed: Rescuing The Culture From Toxic Femininity,” while citing a set of rules for what products can be sold or advertised on Facebook.In an email, Facebook told the gift store that “listings may not promote the buying, selling, or use of adult products,” the College Fix reported.The store “tried to post the book on both those platforms and got the...

A newly released Republican staff report makes a case for how President Joe Biden’s immigration policies will endanger Americans by reducing border security and interior enforcement, and elevating the risk posed by criminal aliens. The report (pdf), jointly authored by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.), ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship, warns that the Biden administration appears poised to adopt policies that will “incentivize illegal immigration and promote an unending flood of foreign nationals into the United States.”One of these is the expansion...

De Mattei: Pope Francis, Biden and “post-institutional” CatholicsFebruary 11, 2021What will be the effects of Joe Biden’s election on the life of the Church? Biden is the second Catholic President in the history of the United States after John Fitzgerald Kennedy, but as Massimo Faggioli notes in his recent book Joe Biden e il cattolicesimo negli Stati Uniti (Scholé, Brescia 2021), he finds himself in a reversed situation. Kennedy had the problem of reconciling his religious faith with a country in which the upper-class had always been Protestant and Catholics were considered an external body, tending to be poorly educated...

The key to our elites’ (hate the word but using it for convenience) riches and power is access to the giant Chinese market no matter how the CCP behaves. This began with Kissinger and Nixon. The theory then, or the rationalization, was that if we opened to China, they would become like us. Consequently, in the decades since, the U. S. government more or less looked away, doing little more than raising its eyebrows in UN conference rooms, as the CCP oppressed its minorities (If you can call millions of people minorities) in the Tibetan, Uyghur, Falun Gong, and Christian...

Lindsey Graham joins Democrats in backing witnesses, saying, ‘If you want a delay, it will be a long one with many, many witnesses.’Former President Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial looked on track to last longer than expected after the Senate voted on Saturday morning in favor of calling witnesses. Witnesses hadn’t been expected in the proceedings, but the lead House manager, Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, said on Saturday morning that his team wanted to call Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington state after she released a statement late Friday that said Trump on Jan. 6 resisted telling...

The European Union on Saturday called on China to reverse its ban on the BBC World News television channel imposed in apparent retaliation for Britain’s pulling of the license of state-owned Chinese broadcaster CGTN.The EU said in a statement that Beijing’s move further restricted “freedom of expression and access to information inside its borders," and violated both the Chinese constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.The statement also said that Hong Kong’s announcement that its public broadcaster would also stop carrying BBC broadcasts added to the “erosion of the rights and freedoms that is ongoing" in the semi-autonomous Chinese...

New York police K9 was filmed taking down a suspect after the man punched a police officer in the face on Friday. Randy Martinez, a 23-year-old man who lives in Newburgh, said he was leaving his house with a friend when a man, identified as Tony Mann, 31, wandered onto his driveway and threatened him with a knife. “I rolled down the window and was going to tell him he can’t be on my property, and then he takes out his knife, and I’m just like, ‘Oh, God, no. What’s going to happen?’” Martinez said he called police because he...

WASHINGTON, DC, Feb 12 – “We’re not giving up on our efforts to eliminate the unfair income tax on Social Security benefits. The Senior Citizens Tax Elimination Act is being reintroduced and the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] will be doing what it takes to encourage lawmakers to support the measure,” says Bob Carlstrom, president of AMAC Action, the association’s senior advocacy affiliate. The original Social Security and tier 1 railroad retirement benefits were specifically exempted from income taxes when they were created in the mid 1930s. “After all, workers pay for them with taxes that are taken out...

And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent. 1 Samuel 17:54 America just has gone through a fake impeachment to hide a fake election hidden by a fake media which resulted in a fake President who is using this fake election to turn this country into a Communist dictatorship. Since we wasted six months catering to the Democrat Communist Party it is time to realize nothing, we have watched during fake pandemic house arrest has been true it is time to break down the most sacred of...

The British economy suffered its biggest decline in more than 300 years in 2020 as the coronavirus pandemic closed shops and restaurants, devastated the travel industry and curtailed manufacturing.The economy shrank 9.9% last year, more than twice the figure for 2009 at the height of the global financial crisis, the Office for National Statistics said Friday. The drop is the largest since 1709, when a cold spell known as the Great Frost devastated what was then a largely agricultural economy.

Opinions needed on best King Cake from a commercial bakery. So far most impressed with Paul's. Just ordered a Haydel's and the filling was placed in blobs on the top. So not really a "filling" and unevenly spread. Would have DIYed but in a cast this year.

We know a lot more on February 12 than on January 6. First, it is clear that the assault on the Capitol has become the most damaging event of Donald Trump’s political career. Combined with forfeiting the Senate in the January run-off elections, the lethal storming of the federal legislature by Trump’s most unscrupulous and foolhardy supporters the next day has now overshadowed a surprisingly strong performance for then-President Trump and the GOP last fall, in a year where everything went wrong.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) told fellow GOP senators via email Saturday morning that he will vote to acquit President Trump when his impeachment trial comes to a vote.

It was only when Attorney General Letitia James faulted the state’s nursing-home data that the Cuomo administration’s stonewall started crumbling. And it took a court victory by the Empire Center, and a judge’s order, to finally flush out the full truth on behalf of more than 15,000 long-term care residents who died — and 15,000 families who lost loved ones. DeRosa’s implausible apology came Feb. 10, which was also the deadline for the state to comply with the court order. That’s probably no coincidence. The bottom line: Cuomo and his administration deceived New Yorkers as long as they could and...

Does the national mask mandate make you feel safe? Candidate Joe Biden's promised plan to control the COVID-19 pandemic featured everybody wearing a mask for 100 days. Former CDC Director Robert Redfield said it might take only four, six or eight weeks (up to 56 days), and later up to 12 weeks (84 days). Now we not only have an Executive Order for mask wearing on federal property and for federal employees and contractors, but the CDC has declared it a federal crime not to wear a mask on public transport or in transportation hubs. There was no constitutional amendment...

Good morning my conservative FRiends. I am reaching out to hopefully get an answer to my lifelong question of a central belief in the Christian faith, especially the Roman Catholic faith. Background: I grew up in a very Roman Catholic family. I am number 10 of 13 children, 8 boys, 5 girls. Mom also had 2 miscarriages which in truth, she became pregnant with 10 boys rather than the 8. Mom had 15 pregnancies in 17 years. We went to Mass every Sunday and all the holy days. Mom actually taught Catechism to the community and was a very loving...
