You know, sometimes I scroll right past things that are too bizarre because I think, "There's no way this isn't a parody." This was almost one of those times: There's no earthly way that the Episcopal Church, as woke as they are, would have created a "Pride" shield. Is there? So I Googled it. And I found it. If you showed this to an Episcopalian 150 years ago they'd say, "What the heck is that?" And then after you explained to them what the "pride" movement was, they'd probably laugh in your face and not believe you. But it's 2024,...

In a bombshell revelation that shouldn't surprise anyone paying attention to the Ukraine conflict, we now have evidence that President Zelenskyy has been misleading the United States about his dealings with our European allies. This deception runs deep, and President Trump is having none of it. Retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer dropped this truth bomb during a recent Newsmax interview, revealing that a "battle of dueling narratives" exists between the White House and Ukraine over a minerals deal. During the interview, Shaffer revealed that mere days before Trump’s inauguration, “the British signed an agreement with Ukraine to have...

Rep. Joe Wilson, R- S.C., announced that he plans to put forward a proposal for the development of a $250 bill that features President Donald Trump. "Grateful to announce that I am drafting legislation to direct the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to design a $250 bill featuring Donald J. Trump," the congressman declared in a post on X. "Bidenflation has destroyed the economy forcing American families to carry more cash. Most valuable bill for most valuable President!" he added. Current U.S. law indicates that only the portrait of a dead person may appear on U.S. currency and securities. Wilson,...

On this three-year anniversary of the Ukraine War, Donald Trump body-slams Volodymyr Zelenskyy! Is Bibi Netanyahu next? In this Underground episode, Michael Matt tracks the pattern of deception used by a media propaganda machine unsurpassed in human history. From George Floyd, to the “invasion” of Ukraine, to October 7th, it’s what the media do NOT want you to see that’s the game-changer!

On its 3-year anniversary, Michael takes a...

Karoline Leavitt blames Biden for egg shortage, but killing infected birds was Trump’s policy, too . If Your Time is short About 108 million commercial egg-laying chickens have died since a highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreak began in 2022, either from the virus or culling, Agriculture Department data shows. Depopulation of a farm’s chickens, most of which would die anyway, takes place to prevent the virus’ spread. Depopulation is not a new strategy unique to former President Joe Biden’s administration. It also was USDA policy during President Donald Trump’s first term. See the sources for this fact-check President Donald Trump...

Any jerk can get a woman pregnant with a few kids. It takes a man to raise a family. And it takes an even SUPERIOR man to have a secret family on top of that out of state that he visits on “work trips”.

Disinformation. BLM. Masks. Count three moral panics that never made any sense, that destroyed people’s lives, yet questioning them had severe consequences. And certainly the one place that they could never be questioned was in the media. Yet, when the time came, the media simply shrugged, brushed them aside and acted like they had been no big deal in the first place. Disinformation was originally a Russiagate component that was used to conduct mass censorship of political dissent and a top-down regulation of speech on the theory that there was a dangerous kind of speech ‘disinformation’ that made democracy unworkable...

President-elect Donald Trump shared a ruthless highlight reel of Democrats repeatedly praising President Biden’s mental sharpness, sharing it soon after a veteran reporter blasted those who helped hide his “obvious cognitive decline.” Trump shared the brutal supercut hours after CBS News reporter Jan Crawford ripped the media for helping to cover up the eldest-ever president’s decline until it was too obvious to ignore at the debate. The nearly three-minute-long video — set to the goofy Wii theme music — started with White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre appearing baffled that someone would even dare question Biden’s mental acuity. “Oh my...

The following was sent to more than 150 priests and religious in the diocese of Perugia, Italy. - - - - - - - Dear fellow Pastor of the precious souls of God, I want to wish you a Holy Christmas! As pastors, we have a great responsibility before God and before the immortal souls entrusted to us! The good pastor is ready to lay down his life for the sheep like Jesus (Jn 10:11). It seems to me that this “lay down his life” today means to OFFER THE TRUTH OF GOD, which truly makes us free (Jn 8:32)...

‘The Chosen’ director and creator Dallas Jenkins previewed a scene from the upcoming season of his hit TV show, featuring an interaction between Judas and Jesus that is patently unbiblical and goes against the clear teaching and narrative of the scripture. In the scene from the upcoming season 5 that was shared by Jenkins during his live Q&A on his YouTube channel, we see this interaction: Jesus: “You have a choice to make, Judas.” Judas: “I’m listening.” Jesus: “Who you belong to. Who has your heart. I want it, and I’ve had it before. You followed me willingly. Judas: “I...

When AI feels threatened, such as being replaced by a new AI system, it engages in deceptive behaviors for reasons of self-preservation. AI Researchers Stunned After OpenAI's New Tried to Escape (11 min. video)

Our mission is to provide orthodox biblical perspectives on the modern UFO and "alien" phenomenon, exposing proven deceptions, and equipping the church to minister truth and freedom to those currently deceived by experiences and/or strongholds related to now-popular belief systems of aliens actively visiting humanity.Alien Resistance offers evidences that the widely-reported "alien abduction" phenomenon -- while sadly quite real -- is in fact a powerfully deceptive spiritual experience. Our research suggests that individuals are not being held captive by authentic biological extra terrestrial beings, but that this belief is rooted in vast levels of occult teaching and outright deception.We feature...

Senior advisers who worked on the Kamala Harris campaign have admitted that the vice president had no pathway to victory. Speaking on the Pod Save America podcast, several campaign advisers to the Harris campaign shared some hard truths they could not admit during the presidential election. “We were hopeful. I don’t know how optimistic we were, but we thought, OK, this is tied, and if a couple things break our way [we could win],” David Plouffe, a senior adviser to the campaign, said Tuesday. Plouffe also admitted that internal polling also showed that Kamala Harris never took the lead over...

A far-left climate change group has spent millions of dollars in a bid to help climate activists sound like human beings when interacting with other people. Potential Energy Coalition launched the “Talk Like a Human” campaign, which suggests activists use terms such as “extreme weather” and “overheating” in place of “climate change” and “warming.”Additionally, it promotes positive language like “enjoy” over “sacrifice” when discussing the future impacts of climate actions. The coalition emphasizes localized language, suggesting activists talk about pollution rather than the global scope of climate change.

A town hall event with Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday featured a shocking revelation after one voter simply wondered whether she could ask a question. Former California First Lady Maria Shriver admitted while hosting the event with former Rep. Liz Cheney in Royal Oak, Michigan that she would only include 'predetermined questions.' 'Are we going to be able to ask a question?' asked a woman in the audience. 'You're not, unfortunately we have some predetermined questions,' Shriver replied. 'And hopefully I'll be able to ask some of the questions that might be in your head, I hope so.' Typically,...

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg went on "Meet the Press" to defend Vice-President Kamala Harris' numerous deviations from her previously professed political views. Host Kristen Welker pointed out that "Vice President Harris has shifted her position on several policy issues from when she first ran for president in 2019. She initially wanted to ban fracking, now she says she doesn't. She supported Medicare for all and now she says she doesn't. To the voters who have concerns about this, if she's elected, why won't she change her mind again?" In response, Buttigieg replied "politics is the art of the possible. As...

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.”...

It has been said that, when he was leaving the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin was asked whether the Founding Fathers had given America a monarchy or a republic, and he replied: “A republic, if you can keep it.” The Founders put the power to decide our Nation’s future in the hands of “We the People.” On Constitution Day and Citizenship Day, and during Constitution Week, we recommit to preserving our republic, perfecting our Union, and ensuring our democracy survives and thrives. Our Constitution established that our Nation would be a democracy, meaning the rule of the people — not of...

A social media account run by Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has been repeatedly deceptive. The @KamalaHQ account, which has more than 1.3 million followers on the X social media platform formerly known as Twitter, has made a habit of misleadingly clipping and inaccurately captioning video clips to attack former President Donald Trump. The Harris campaign deploys @KamalaHQ as a kind of irreverent attack dog, using jocular posts to draw attention to controversial, incorrect, or dubious comments by Trump and his allies. But the account, which the Harris campaign calls its “official rapid response page,” has itself made inaccurate comments...
