Trump got 70 million + votes. A lot of these are from our neighbors who may be depressed because they are stuck in the mainstream media narrative being pushed on all networks including the sell-out Fox News. We need to reach out to these fine patriots and let them know what's really going on, and that there are much better sources of info, including at our fine FreeRepublic. Below is a flyer I am putting on all the doors of people in my area who still have Trump signs in their yards. Feel free to copy and use, or come...

The truth about this election is being purposefully hidden from everyday American citizens by the mainstream media. Here is a flyer created by a few everyday America citizens which gives resources and information regarding the voter fraud in this election and media/ social media censorship and what you can do. Please pass this out (or make your own) to as many Trump Supporters as possible. There are many Trump yard signs all across the country. Please consider leaving the flyer on the front porches of all these patriots. (DO NOT LEAVE IN MAILBOXES AS THAT IS ILLEGAL). Do not harass...

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) through the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) are funding an organized and direct effort to elect former vice president Joe Biden as the next president of the United States. Faith in Action (formerly the PICO Network) is one of the most heavily funded organizations of the CCHD. The Faith In Action Network includes forty-nine organizations spread across twenty states. At least twenty-nine affiliates of Faith in Acton’s network receive funding from the CCHD, comprising more than $1.5 million in the 2019-2020 CCHD grants cycle. Each local affiliate of Faith in Action...

OK, so Allred just brought out a new Trump accuser. her name is Summer Zervos and she was a contestant on the Apprentice. Look what she had to say about her experience with Trump back in 2006: "It's extremely intense," Zervos says of the experience. "Hard work. I learned a lot about myself and how you respond when the pressure's on. I left admiring Donald Trump a lot more than when I arrived." http://www.ocregister.com/articles/says-95263-experience-zervos.html

October 13 batch of Podesta emails up. Here's a little gem: "It is disquieting that when HRC was secretary of state she spent a good time of time doing gossip emails with Sid Blumenthal about various matters, the ubiquitous Lanny Davis shilling for himself in pathetic ways, and Neera Tanden gossiping about what Soros thinks of Obama." https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/7432

League City officials say a patient's symptoms and recent travel to Africa forced the precautionary closure of an emergency clinic. Based on the countries the patient recently visited, the Centers for Disease Control believes there is very little to zero risk of exposure to Ebola, however. It was shortly after 11 a.m. Friday when the staff at Intermediate Medical Care located at 2640 E League City Parkway called authorities. A medical worker said a male patient who had recently traveled from Africa was at the facility and "exhibiting symptoms that could be consistent with Ebola."

A doctor in New York City who recently returned from treating Ebola patients in Guinea tested positive for the Ebola virus Thursday, becoming the city’s first diagnosed case. The doctor, Craig Spencer, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital on Thursday and placed in isolation while health care workers spread out across the city to trace anyone he might have come into contact with in recent days. A further test will be conducted by the federal Centers for Disease Control to confirm the initial test.

GAMALIEL FOUNDATION DECEIVES CATHOLIC FUNDING AGENCY The Reform CCHD Now Coalition (RCN) Uncovers Fraud and Deception By Network of Grantees Receiving Catholic Funds WASHINGTON, DC – The 24 member Reform CCHD Now Coalition (RCN) released its latest report on organizations receiving funds from the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). The 2012 report reveals that one of the CCHD’s longest-running grant recipients, the Gamaliel Foundation, attempted to deceive the CCHD regarding its relationship with an organization promoting homosexuality. Beginning in 2010, RCN has investigated organizations receiving funds from the CCHD, reporting on grantees that promote abortion, homosexuality, birth control and...

For those who haven’t been watching, there’s another scandal brewing in the Catholic Church — this time with Catholic Relief Services (CRS) and the promotion of some very un-Catholic things. The good folks over at Life Site News just uncovered a rather unsettling relationship between CRS and an organization called the CORE Group, but there seems to be more to the story than a simple working relationship. Two weeks ago, Life Site News revealed that CRS gave a $5.3 million grant to a pro-abortion, pro-contraception, and pro-homosexual organization known as CARE. It’s bad enough that CRS has been so rigidly...

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background For a number of years, there has been concern with the grants that CCHD distributes. There have been specific complaints thata significant portion of the grants have been given to organizations working in direct contradiction to Church teaching. In 2009, American Life League joined with several other concerned organizations to form the Reform CCHD Now Coalition. In March of 2010, the coalition sent a report on CCHD to each bishop, showing that, in 2009–2010, 51 out of 237 groups receiving CCHD funding either directly or through coalition membership promoted abortion, birth control, homosexuality, and/or Marxism. Thus, 21%...

This Sunday (Nov. 23rd) is the annual collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). You may have heard that the CCHD had given over a million dollars per year to ACORN, a radically leftist group which seeks the election of "progressive" anti-life politicians among other things. The CCHD says that they will no longer be giving our donations to ACORN because there was reported embezzlement by ACORN founder Wade Rathke some time ago. (see: http://www.usccb.org/cchd/ morin_acorn_report.shtml ) There is a lot of confusion about what the CCHD is, how it works and whether faithful Catholics can be sure...

Just a heads-up. A friend of mine is doing a live pod-cast now (9pm EST) regarding Catholics and voting on pro-life issues. Listeners can sub,it questions via chat at: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the_catholic_hack

In 2005, the Leadership for a Changing World awards program named Bruce Dorpalen, Director of Housing Counseling ACORN Housing, as a national finalist. Their reason for honoring Dorpalen: "In 1985, to address the issue of mortgage redlining in low-income and minority neighborhoods, Bruce Dorpalen and a team of ACORN community leaders negotiated a community reinvestment agreement with a Philadelphia bank. This agreement changed the way mortgages were underwritten, recognizing the income, savings, and credit of lower-income borrowers and eliminating barriers to qualifying for a mortgage." http://www.leadershipforchange.org/finalists/finalist.php3?ID=308 In 1997, the National Housing Institute also credited ACORN with inventing a new mechanism...

ACORN's Housing Corporation put out a PDF which explained that very low income folks could use food stamps and other gov't assitance to qualify for home loans. ACORN would then sell the loans to Fannie Mae. This pdf "To each Their Home: Success Stories from the ACORN Housing Corporation" is very difficult to access on ACORN's archive and was dug out in this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2109782/posts Freepmail me if you have a use for this PDF file and I'll do my best to send you a copy. Also, the National Housing Institute in 1996 credited ACORN with creating this new method...
