“For at the window of my house I looked through my lattice. And saw among the simple, I perceived among the youths, a young man void of understanding. Passing along the street near her corner; And he took the path to her house, in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night.” (Proverbs 7:6-9)The book of Proverbs like all scripture, is multifaceted, it goes beyond being God’s psychology, as I noted in the previous post, although it is indeed that. It is also more than a collection of divine maxims, the teaching of morality, people skills, and...

A recent study conducted in an early "hot spot" of COVID-19 in the Gangelt district of Heinsberg concluded that the actual death rate was 0.37%--one-fifth of Germany's officially reported numbers. In Minnesota, Dr. Scott Jensen says he received a 7-page Center for Disease Control document coaching him to fill out death certificates in a way that overstates the number of COVID-19 deaths. He also suggested that the payment rules giving a hospital a "bonus" for attributing a death to this virus might also skew the official data. White House adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci brushed aside the above reports, calling them...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but,...

The following is a recent note that I wrote to our former high school football coach, Art Davis, who is now 85 years old. Dear Art, Thanks for the greetings. I hope you were able to make contact with my brother Tom. I got to thinking about the similarities of what we both do. You were the football coach at Barstow High School. The BHS varsity Football team, under your direction, won for the first time, the California State Championship (CIF), division AA, 50 years ago in 1969. You are a football coach. In a certain sense, I might call...

The Big Picture: who is really running the show in the culture war, and its nature and trajectory. Major policies of liberals are contrary to Scripture and have the devil as their author.While it is easy to focus on personalities and daily events in the on-going culture war, the larger picture is that this is a spiritual war in which liberals, to varying degrees, are simply proxy servants for the devil. Who uses these servant to “progressively” transform the world into an alternative world order of perversions of what God has ordained. Thus the real reason for liberal's attack...

De Mattei: Querida Amazonia: the consequences of the ‘turning point’ that never was A temporary halt on “viri probati”;  the flop of the Amazon Synod; open conflict with the Amazonian-Germanic bishops. These three points are contained in the dynamic initiated by Pope Francis’ Post-Synod Exhortation Querida Amazonua, presented on February 12th 2020.* There has been a great deal of suspenseful buildup around this Papal Exhortation, which put the final seal on the Amazon Synod, held in Rome from October 6th to 27th , 2019.** Both the Instrumentum Laboris (June 17th 2019) *** and the final document of October 26th proposed...

The saints tell us that the Catholic Church is the soul of the world. Above all what sustains the Church is the Most Holy Eucharist (Vat. II: LG 11; CCC 1324). Even though the great majority of the baptized Catholics have lost their faith in the Eucharist, Satan knows very well what the Eucharist is and that it is the Eucharist above all which “restrains” Satan (2Thess 2:3-4). Satan already deprived the Protestants of the Eucharist 400 years ago, just as Satan did for many disciples of Jesus (Jn 6:66) 2000 years ago. Thus we are finally quickly arriving to...

Adam Schiff! Masterfully leading astray the anti-Trumpers and his Party’s faithful What does it say about our country, when one political Party, the Democratic Party, deeply involved with the corruption in Ukraine, uses it as part of their effort to try and discredit the other Party’s candidate for President and then President, particularly after he begins to look into such corruption? Getting a majority in the House of Representatives, this Party, with zero support from the minority Party, voted in December to recommend to the Senate the President’s removal from office, and this week spent four days on national television...

The most abused adjective in political reporting is the label "centrist." It should tell you everything about the politician. Unfortunately, it tells us far more about those applying the label. The American Conservative Union ratings system has been widely accepted as the voting compass from the perspective of the right. According to the ACU, a centrist would look like Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, who has a lifetime ACU score of 44.8%. Reporters could call her a "liberal Republican," and they should, except that term simply doesn't exist. (Don't believe us? Check it out.) Or take Sen. Joe Manchin of...

When a man allegedly drove away from the scene of a 2018 fender-bender, a Seattle police officer told one of the man's friends that the crash left a woman in critical condition, a police watchdog says. The woman "might not survive," the officer added, according to a report from the Seattle Police Department's Office of Police Accountability. But the story about the woman's condition was all a trick -- a ruse to flush out the driver, the report said. The OPA says the driver's friends reported that he grew worried in the days after the crash, thinking that someone possibly...

There was a time when news of last days’ significance was sporadic. I could easily do a weekly radio program and hit the highlights of the week in an hour or two on air. In the last decade, that has all changed. Now, when trying to prepare a new message on the signs of the times, I find myself having to leave out information due to volume. Some things just have to be set aside. In light of that, let me present what I think are the top ten Bible prophecy signs of 2019. As stated, I could present 110....

Language is wildly important. That words have meanings, and those meanings are understood by everyone, are the key to communication. That’s why it’s becoming increasingly difficult to communicate with progressive leftists – they will not be bound by those definitions, they change them whenever it suits their needs. It’s to the point that it’s not even worth trying. On Wednesday, Nancy Pelosi announced her call for articles of impeachment against President Trump, and what the Speaker of the House wants, the Speaker of the House gets (in the House). The only thing missing from her announcement was any charge she...

Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows unmasked two of the previously unidentified, anti-Trump, pro-Hillary FBI investigators referred for investigation by the Inspector General. These FBI attorneys do not work in “counterintelligence” as the FBI previously claimed as an excuse to withhold their names from the public. Rep. Mark Meadows unmasked two of the unidentified FBI officials in the IG report. The unnamed FBI officials “Agent 1” and “Agent 5” were involved in the FBI Clinton investigation and were also engaged in a romantic relationship just like fellow FBI lovebirds Strzok and Page. One of the FBI lawyers is Sally Moyer, the...

Former President Barack Obama on Friday warned Democratic primary candidates to avoid leaning too far left in their campaigns, and raised concerns that certain liberal policy proposals on health care and immigration might have gone further than public opinion. In an unusual address to a room of wealthy Democratic donors, Obama urged Democratic candidates to be pragmatic in their messages to voters. While he didn’t mention any specific presidential primary candidate or proposal, Obama warned that the average American voter does not align with views from “certain left-leaning Twitter feeds or the activist wing of our party.” Obama said that...

Very few people today, even good Catholics, realize that to follow our human opinions or to cleverly change the truths, expressed in the doctrines of the Church, will have, afterwards, very great devastating effects both here on earth and after death, as seen in history and in the Old Testament. In the first centuries of the Church many wars were fought over these precious truths. Now few even care about these safeguards of life, liberty and happiness, now and for all eternity! This is why today the very numerous followers of Satan can EASILY LEAD THE GREAT MAJORITY WHERE THEY...

Hillary Clinton, Your foreign policy was a disaster for our country and the world. It’s time for you to acknowledge the damage you have caused and step down from your throne. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGBbaYeEUik  

The Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton Sheen, wrote in 1948: “[Satan] will set up a counter church which will be the ape of the [Catholic] Church … It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and EMPTIED OF ITS DIVINE CONTENT.” “We are living in the days of the Apocalypse, the last days of our era. The two great forces – the Mystical Body of Christ and the Mystical Body of the anti-Christ – are beginning to draw battle lines for the catastrophic contest.” “The False prophet will have A RELIGION WITHOUT A CROSS....

After many years of patient work, Satan has led the great majority of people in the Church and outside of the Church into relativism who has convinced this great majority of people that each person can decide the Truth for themselves without any reference to what God has revealed to us throughout human history (called Divine Revelation), well explained in the documents of the Catholic Church and well summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC, ed. 1992). Thus people no longer realize the great devastation that will happen afterwards due to neglecting and arrogantly changing the...

I've seen this enough times now to know that it is not an accident. Last night we were watching FOX News and during a segment featuring Greg Gutfeld they cut to commercial. After one more or less benign commercial who comes on but Lester Holt advertising for NBC News. An ad for NBC News on FOX News? Whut??? But like I said, I've seen this before. So right after the ad finishes I click the reverse on our DISH Hopper to replay the ad and instead of the NBC ad it's an ad for the 2020 Trump campaign. DISH ran...

In 2016, the only battleground state Senate Republican to falter in a re-election bid was New Hampshire's Kelly Ayotte.  She fell by the slimmest of margins -- losing by roughly 1,000 votes (0.2 percentage points) statewide.  Conservative third party candidate Aaron Day ended up receiving more than 17,000 votes in the contest, tipping it to Democrat Maggie Hassan, who was also helped by a Libertarian candidate pulling in more than 12,000 ballots.  The little-known Day's candidacy benefited from anonymous mailers sent to Republican voters designed to attack Ayotte "from the right."  The liberal outfit behind the ads peddled their mischief...
