Free Republic

Brace yourselves for October! In October 2024, after the ending of the Synod, all signs indicate that priests will be permitted to marry, women will be permitted to become “deacons” or “priests”, “And we'll all feel GAY (when Johnny comes marching home).” The vision of Saint Bridget: The pope that lifts celibacy will go to hell! The homosexuals, with the Freemas0ns, have changed many words, such as GAY, in order to promote their agenda, the culture of death. Up until 40 years ago, the world “GAY” in English meant happy!!! (Note: When pasting this document into Free Republic, it seems...

MY BISHOP, ARCHBISHOP IVAN MAFFEIS, of the diocese of Perugia, Italy, went on his motor bike, on August 12, 2024, to visit in the hospital of Perugia, Laura Santi, an unbaptized atheist, a leading member of the Luca Coscioni association which promotes euthanasia in Italy. We read in Gaeta.it (https://www.gaeta.it/larcivescovo-di-perugia-don-ivan-maffeis-incontra-lattivista-laura-santi-in-un-dialogo-profondo): “Laura, suffering from a progressive form of multiple sclerosis and fighting for the recognition of her right to assisted suicide, shared her experiences and legal battles with the Archbishop. This interaction aroused great media interest, offering a glimpse of the contemporary reality regarding the end of life and individual rights.”...

VIDEOIndian comedian Brandomino has the incredible comedy chops to move on from the Indian version of the Borscht Belt to the general American community with his absolutely HILARIOUS Kamala shtick. Here is just a small sampling of his Scamala shtick but you can catch a ton more of his material on X (which Indians pronounce as "Twitter") at @brandominoefect. DON'T ACT LIKE US! DON'T ACT LIKE US!

In a fiery appearance on OutFront, former CNN host Don Lemon lashed out at Donald Trump, accusing the former president of inciting violence and threatening democracy. Lemon suggested Trump should stop trying to overturn elections and inciting insurrections if he wanted Democrats to stop calling him a threat to democracy. This comes after a second assassination attempt on Trump, which Lemon linked to Trump's divisive rhetoric. He also condemned Trump’s frequent insults towards political opponents, which he said contribute to political violence. Lemon didn’t hold back, referencing Trump’s derogatory nicknames for Democrats, such as "Crooked Joe" for President Biden and...

The president of the United States, often referred to as the “leader of the free world” and the “commander in chief,” seems not to be his own man. President Joe Biden, who ostensibly wields the awesome power of the Oval Office, yielded to a loud pressure campaign demanding that he step aside in the 11th hour of a presidential race that Donald Trump seemed destined to win. Jubilant fellow Democrats hailed Biden’s decision to step aside, but his move raises a far more ominous question: Who, exactly, is in control of the U.S. government? The answer may surprise you. It...

A Secret Service whistleblower revealed that would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh had inside information on the security vulnerabilities at Donald Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course. Routh was able to set up a sniper’s nest with a perfect range just roughly 300 yards from Trump. Senator Josh Hawley wrote in a letter: “A whistleblower with direct knowledge of Secret Service protection of former President Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach — an individual who has in fact protected President Trump at that very location — alleges that there are ‘known vulnerabilities’ in the fence line surrounding the course: places...

As America braces for a wild 2024 election after the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, voters should be reminded why they shouldn’t trust legacy media talking heads like ABC’s The View co-host Ana Navarro who downplayed it. Many of the prominent figures in the media are explicitly connected to Democrats.

Years of extremely inflammatory rhetoric from the mainstream media and from many of our leaders have brought us to the brink of a societal nightmare. The numbers that I am about to share with you are horrifying, but it is so important for us to understand what is ahead of us. In an article that I posted yesterday, I discussed the recent attempt on Trump’s life and I stated that “there are some that truly wish that he had been killed”. Unfortunately, that was a tremendous understatement. According to a survey that was conducted after the most recent attempt on...

If it were up to Larry Ellison, the exorbitantly rich cofounder of software outfit Oracle, all of us will soon be smiling for the camera — constantly. Not for a cheery photograph, but to appease our super-invasive, if not totally omnipresent, algorithmic overseers. As Business Insider reports, the tech centibillionaire glibly predicts that the wonders of AI will bring about a new paradigm of supercharged surveillance, guaranteeing that the proles — excuse us, "citizens" — all behave and stay in line. "We're going to have supervision," Ellison said this week at an Oracle financial analysts meeting, per BI. "Every police...

This is openly totalitarian. If we don’t resist this, we’re done: “Just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn't mean that we're not going to walk into that home and check to see if you're being responsible.” ... Kamala Harris literally said they will be doing a gun confiscation. What’s it going to take for everyone to realize these people are straight up communists and they are coming for our guns, our free speech and all our constitutional rights. Democrats are domestic terrorists.

The operation by whomever (cough, Israel has not officially said it was them, cough) to take out Hezballess (HT Chris Loesch as apparent originator) operatives was masterful. On several levels even. First, it was fairly precise targeting, which limited (nothing can eliminate the possibility of) “civilian” casualties. Limiting the explosive to one or two ounces helped guarantee limitation of collateral damage. Those who are screaming otherwise, and that it was against the rules of war, are both wrong and far more upset that their favored side was hurt and that the Jews dared defend themselves instead of just lining up...

The State Department grossly mishandled its suspension of scandal-plagued Iran envoy Robert Malley, allowing him to continue accessing classified information and sensitive data after he was disciplined, according to an inspector general report reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. The department's assistant inspector general gathered congressional staffers Wednesday afternoon for a closed-door briefing on the agency’s missteps after Malley had his security clearance pulled in 2023 for mishandling classified information. The briefing revealed that Malley was permitted to engage in classified activities even after his clearance was pulled, representing a breach of federal protocol, according to attendees. Malley was also...

Six Kansas-based former members of a cult called the United Nation of Islam (UNOI) have been convicted after forcing children to work 16-hour days for no pay while housing them in inhumane conditions. The people had told the children they would burn in “eternal hellfire” if they tried to escape. The United Nation of Islam (UNOI) was a splinter group from the Nation of Islam, founded by Royall Jenkins in 1978. Officially labeled a cult by a federal judge back in 2018, UNOI housed children in overcrowded, rodent-infested facilities, brutally beat the children, and nearly starved them. The children worked...

If this isn’t election interference, I don’t know what is. The Fed today slashed interest rates by the biggest amount in 16 YEARS, a whopping 50 basis points from 5.50% to 5.00%. With the economy roaring along (thanks to Covid-related massive Federal spending), there was no good reason to slash rates. Other than to get Kamala (Hyena) Harris across the finish line. The Fed’s bloated balance sheet remains bloast at 7.115 TRILLION. The dots plot reveals more rate cuts to come. Or as the flea sang, Food Around The Corner.

Last Saturday evening, I arrived at the Haitian Community Help and Support Center here on S. Yellow Springs Street, drawn by former President Donald Trump’s explosive claim in the presidential debate days earlier that migrants from Haiti are “eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats, they’re eating the pets of the people who live there.” But in just 72 hours, I uncovered something sinister that is the real story in this town of about 58,000 locals and an estimated 15,000 migrant workers—a long-standing, hidden human trafficking network that has upended the lives of both the Haitian migrants and local residents....

A video from the Springfield City Commission meeting in March has resurfaced on Twitter, showing the Springfield, Ohio, City Manager Bryan Heck admitting that he had heard stories about Haitian immigrants to the town consuming "domesticated animals." A resident of Springfield spoke to at the meeting and the City Manager, who recently told ABC that this was absolutely not happening, said that he had also heard these reports. The resident said he understands that the "laws and culture" of Springfield are "180 degrees from what they're used to. And one of the things that I heard that bothered me very...

Anti-Israel activists at the University of Pennsylvania vandalized the Benjamin Franklin statue on campus to protest against the school’s connections to the Jewish state. The group Up Against the Occupation, or (u)PAO, posted pictures to Instagram on Thursday showing a statue of the American Founder doused in red paint. The group called the statue “a symbol of imperial violence and colonialism.” The organization wrote that an “autonomous group” had “poured red paint over the statue” as a “visual reminder of the over 186,000 martyrs and the university’s complicity in genocide.” The group wrote: “Penn, your hands are red,” and condemned...

This week, Israel announced its victory in the battle of Rafah in which four battalions of Hamas fighters were destroyed in the four months of fighting. This was a battle that Democrat nominee for president Vice President Kamala Harris urged them not to fight. "It wasn't because I didn't think they couldn't win this battle," Harris said. "It was because I thought they shouldn't win such a battle. It would cause too many civilian casualties and push the eventual establishment of a Palestinian state even further into the future." Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the victory "essential to winning...

This is an interesting Megan Kelly (14 minute) interview of Eric Prince regarding the recent assassination attempts on Trump. Note Eric's interesting suggestion on how to employ active duty military assets to quickly beef up and secure Trump's outer perimeter.

Michigan’s Democrat-controlled Senate passed a package of four DIRTY election bills yesterday, referred to as the “State Voting Rights Act.” The bills, now heading to the Democrat-controlled House, have stirred controversy among critics asserting they represent a significant state government takeover of elections and threaten election integrity on a number of fronts, not the least of which is the special treatment afforded to “protected classes” of people. In addition, Senate Bills 401 through 404 shift control of elections from the legislature to the state’s courts and executive branch, giving the secretary of state unprecedented power over local governments. For example,...
