During his acceptance speech at the Democratic Party Convention, Joe Biden cast his presidential campaign as a battle of light versus darkness, vowing he’d be “an ally of the light, not of the darkness.” Half-wit Joe had it half right; the 2020 election is about good versus evil, but Biden’s squarely on the dark side unless he switched parties. Biden can’t tell the truth because, by nature, Democrats are lying liars who speak in half-truths to garner votes from simpleton group thinkers. Democrat politicians get away with lying because they know most of their voters aren’t interested in exercising reasonable,...

Ukraine is the breadbasket of eastern Europe. Tremendous farming and wheat production was centered in Ukraine. Under Lenin, and then Stalin, all farms and food production were seized and controlled by the state. The Soviets hated the Ukrainian peasants and wanted them all dead. All of them. So here’s what they did in ARSH 1932: At wheat planting time, the Ukrainian farmers all went to the Soviet office in town to get their allocation of seed wheat to plant for that year’s crop, naturally. The Soviets stalled and stalled and then simply refused to give the Ukrainian farmers any seed....

Am I the only one who sees death to America in the DNC logo?

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Georgia Sharkey Garrett, 73, was in serious condition at the University of Chicago Hospital Friday evening. She was rushed to the hospital in the early morning hours after being hit by gunfire. The shooting happened a little after 2 a.m. in the 9000-block of South Oglesby in Calumet Heights. Police said Garrett was opening the back door of her home to let her grandson inside when multiple shots were fired toward the house. Police said the grandson was not struck. Garrett's daughter said she was devastated when she got the call Friday morning. "I immediately broke down...

What if mental disorders like anxiety, depression or post-traumatic stress disorder aren’t mental disorders at all? In a compelling new paper, biological anthropologists call on the scientific community to rethink mental illness. With a thorough review of the evidence, they show good reasons to think of depression or PTSD as responses to adversity rather than chemical imbalances. And ADHD could be a way of functioning that evolved in an ancestral environment, but doesn’t match the way we live today. Adaptive responses to adversity Mental disorders are routinely treated by medication under the medical model. So why are the anthropologists who...

US Sen. Kamala Harris is the most openly anti-Catholic bigot to be on a national ticket in modern times. Her record is perfectly clear. She is openly anti-Catholic in confirming federal judges, wanting to prosecute the Little Sisters of the Poor, closing Catholic Hospitals who don’t join her union allies, and favoring tax paid abortion up until birth (in fact, she has twice voted against bills that would ensure that babies who lived through abortion procedures got medical care). In many ways, Harris’s bigotry against Catholics is a perfect example of the modern radical left’s ideology of” intolerant tolerance” that...

Billionaire liberal activist George Soros told an Italian newspaper that he sees the coronavirus epidemic as a “revolutionary” opportunity. In an interview with La Repubblica, the Hungarian-born Mr. Soros also denounced President Trump as a “transitory phenomenon” but expressed hope that the COVID crisis has opened up politics in a radical direction. “I would describe it as a revolutionary moment when the range of possibilities is much greater than in normal times,” he said. “What is inconceivable in normal times becomes not only possible but actually happens. People are disoriented and scared.” […] “He’s fighting for his life and he...

Exorcist, Fr. Ripperger, Says Politics Is Now Good vs. Evil

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer vetoed a bipartisan bill on Friday that would have protected the elderly and vulnerable by banning COVID-19 patients from being quarantined in nursing homes. “Protecting the health and safety of nursing home residents and their staff continues to be a top priority for my administration,” Governor Whitmer said while announcing her veto. “Senate Bill 956 is nothing more than a political game that would relocate vulnerable seniors without any requirement for consent, doctor’s approval, or notification to patients and their families. It’s time for the Republican legislature to get serious about protecting our most vulnerable and...

To all the wealthy, liberal elites who are cheering on the protests and riots, a word of warning is in order. The same holds true for the conservative Christians who are lining up to show their support for the BLM movement. To each of you I say: Do not be deceived. The cancel culture will soon be coming for you. A few weeks ago, I read about a TV sports journalist who tweeted his support for rioters in a nearby city. "Burn that s-- down. Burn it all down," he tweeted with glee. Later that same day, as the mob...

The Sons of Issachar were men who understood the times (I Chronicles 12:32). Today, very few people have an interest. The following e-mail represents hundreds that I get: “ Jan, I am viewed as crazy just by mentioning how excited I am for the Lord to return and about the times we are in. It makes me nervous to even mention world news and events, or end-time prophecies, with anyone who claims to be a Christian. The reactions I get are so very negative. I haven’t found even one person at my church, work, or extended family who would be...

A Virgin Mary statue outside a Dorchester church was desecrated on the same night another one was burned about a mile away, according to the Catholic Action League of Massachusetts’ spokesman, who said churches are being “deliberately targeted.” A statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary was set ablaze outside St. Peter’s Parish overnight July 11. Police responded to the scene and are investigating, officials confirmed at the time.

Just one day after the Supreme Court said the government can’t force the Little Sisters of the Poor to fund abortions, the CEO of the Planned Parenthood abortion business said it would “fight back” against the decision and not give up on forcing the Catholic nuns, and all Americans, to fund abortions. As LifeNews reported, the Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding a pro-life order from President Donald Trump that protected the Little Sisters of the Poor from being force to pay for abortion-causing drugs under their health insurance plan. Abortion advocates have spent years trying to force the Catholic...

Liberals have made quick use of the coronavirus crisis to promote all manner of policy prescriptions that, under less dire circumstances, would be ignored or lamented by conservatives. The left’s latest gambit is the George Soros-backed vote-by-mail scheme, which promises an election cycle ripe for fraud. But that’s merely one data point in a vast array of efforts being funded by the left-wing billionaire. His minions, with a great deal of help from rich Uncle George, are using the pandemic as an opportunity to prey on destabilization and panic to usher in their dream of expanding government control of our...

A man was arrested Thursday after being accused of kidnapping, raping and sodomizing a 15-year-old girl in Augusta, according to multiple media reports. Bill Eugene Anderson, 59, is accused of spotting the girl walking along the 200 block of Pleasant Home Road and approaching her in his car, the Augusta Chronicle reported. He told her that he had a gun and demanded that she get into the car, according to a Richmond County Sheriff’s Office incident report. The report, which was obtained by the Chronicle, said Anderson took the teenager to a nearby motel off Gordon Highway and sexually assault...

Have you read the headlines lately? They are a consistent and unmitigated chronicle of the slow-motion train wreck of the United States of America, as it sputters and spasms its way to the grave. Everything that surrounds us is fake, a cardboard cutout of what used to be life in the greatest country on the face of the earth. Sports Illustrated is proudly featuring a man named Valentina Sampaio pretending to be a woman as its 2020 face of beauty, and it perfectly represents the end times freak show that our nation and our society has become. As millions cheer,...

BOSTON – Six former employees of eBay, Inc. have been charged with leading a cyberstalking campaign targeting the editor and publisher of a newsletter that eBay executives viewed as critical of the company. The alleged harassment included sending the couple anonymous, threatening messages, disturbing deliveries – including a box of live cockroaches, a funeral wreath and a bloody pig mask – and conducting covert surveillance of the victims. James Baugh, 45, of San Jose, Calif., eBay’s former Senior Director of Safety & Security, was arrested today and charged by criminal complaint with conspiracy to commit cyberstalking and conspiracy to tamper with...

Friendly Fire: Are NY Patients Dying Of COVID Because Of Doctors? by Pennel Bird for Liberty Nation A retired army sergeant and war veteran turned whistleblowing nurse alleges horrific medical malpractice at a Queens hospital. Erin Olszewski’s abbreviated tenure at Elmhurst Hospital Center was during the months that New York was the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic, suffering the highest number of COVID deaths in the nation. Her claim that the standard of medical care at Elmhurst was commensurate with “a third world country hospital” is based on shocking undercover videos she made of conversations with colleagues, supervisors, and...

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) announced Thursday that she would block the promotions of 1,123 senior military officers until Defense Secretary Mark Esper promises that he will promote Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who is believed to have communicated with the “whistleblower” that sparked Trump’s impeachment. Her office called the move “unprecedented” but said it came in response to reports of “political interference in military matters” by Trump — the commander in chief.

End Times expert Rabbi Mendel Kessin is well-known for connecting world events to their end of days significance. In a recent lecture, he spoke about the “upheavals, eruptions and catastrophes” currently playing out in America. “We’re watching a tremendous amount of instability in the world. I’m sure everyone is wondering, ‘What is happening and why is this happening?’” he noted. His explanation is based, in part, on the Biblical precedent of the story of Noah. Hashem said to Noach, “I have decided to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with lawlessness because of them: I...
