Biden says Pope Francis told him to continue receiving communion, amid scrutiny over pro-abortion policies

If Joe said it, it MUST be true. Knowing the politics of this Pope, he seems to be a Democrat at heart.


 Fox News  "President Biden said that Pope Francis, during their meeting Friday in Vatican City, told him that he should continue to receive co mmunion, amid heightened scrutiny of the Catholic president's pro-abortion policies.  

"The president, following the approximately 90-minute-long meeting, a key part of his trip to Italy for the G20, told reporters details of their discussions. 

"Biden said that Francis told him that he should keep receiving communion. The president said the pope blessed his rosary, and added that they discussed fighting climate change as part of his Build Back Better agenda. ". . .

Biden says Pope Francis didn’t talk abortion and he can have communion  "President Biden said Friday that Pope Francis didn’t mention abortion but told him to continue taking communion during a 90-minute meeting that reporters weren’t allowed to attend.

"Biden told reporters after the meeting that “no” they didn’t discuss abortion.

“ 'We just talked about the fact that he was happy I’m a good Catholic and I should keep receiving communion,” Biden said.". . .

Not one, not two: Four anti-Biden ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ songs reach iTunes top 10

I like this, but it's a photoshop obviously. Eric Swalwell should buy it.

Washington Times  "Bryson Gray keeps hold on top spot despite being suspended by YouTube"

. . ."At number two was Mr. Alexander’s “Let’s Go Brandon (extended version),” followed by British superstar Adele’s “Easy on Me” and “Fancy Like” by country star Walker Hayes.

"After that: More Brandon. Coming in at number five was a Loza Alexander remix called “Let’s Go Brandon” by Godz Child, followed by Mr. Alexander’s original “Lets Go Brandon.”

"The Florida-based rapper Godz Child was the latest to crack the top 10 with a song that dubs his own lyrics over Mr. Alexander’s catchy background loop.

"Hustle Weekly reported that the Godz Child version had gone “viral on TikTok.”

"On the iTunes list of top downloaded rap and hip-hop songs, the dominance was even greater: “Brandon” dominated the top five, with the fifth position taken by a “Let’s Go Brandon” record by Topher, D.Cure & the Marine Rapper."

Parents sue medical examiner over suicide ruling for woman who died of 20 stab wounds

Plus three shots to the head; TD

NY Post    "The parents of a Pennsylvania woman who died of 20 stab wounds are taking the medical examiner’s office to court for declaring her death a suicide.

"Ellen Greenberg’s parents have been granted a non-jury trial in their lawsuit against the coroner’s office over her January 2011 death in her Philadelphia apartment, CBS Philly reported.

“ 'We look forward to the trial in hopes of obtaining justice for Ellen,” Sandra Greenberg, Ellen’s mother, told the outlet.

"On the day of her death, Ellen, 27, had returned home to her apartment early from her first-grade teaching job on account of a snowstorm.

"She was later discovered dead on the kitchen floor by her fiance, Sam Goldberg, when he returned home from the gym.

"She had suffered stabbing wounds to her chest, neck, head and torso, police said." . . .

Let's Just Admit Why Biden Was Elected, America

 RedState  "Let’s be honest, Democrats.

"Joe Biden was elected — I will not relitigate the “stolen election” debate in this article — for one reason: to get rid of Donald Trump. Period. The Democrat Party could have nominated a blind, intellectually disabled squirrel, and the results of the 2020 election would not have changed.

"But let’s be clear: No one loves Joe Biden.". . .

"Moreover, everyone from White House officials to members of Biden’s cabinet to Democrat lawmakers on Capitol Hill to the sock puppets of the so-called “mainstream” media is terrified every time Corn Pop’s pal opens his mouth — at which time he invariably mumbles something else stupid and/or incoherent.

Rep. Eric Swalwell Falls for Failed Virginia Tiki Torch Hoax

UK Daily Mail: Bid to smear Virginia Rep gubernatorial challenger as a racist is foiled: Fake Youngkin supporters dressed as 'Unite the Right' protestors pose in front of his bus, setting off firestorm of criticism - before Lincoln Project admits stunt

Pictured, right:  "Lauren Windsor, a self-proclaimed 'progressive pugilist swamp-slayer' said on Friday evening that she had worked the The Lincoln Project to stage the stunt"

Breitbart  "Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA), a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, fell for and promoted the tiki torch hoax during the Virginia governor’s race on Friday.

“ 'Birds of a feather,” tweeted Swalwell in response to a now-deleted post that called a photo of five tiki torch-wielding democrats “disgusting.”


"Many users on social media called out Swalwell for promoting the tiki torch stunt.". . . 

Jeff Charles commented: "Glenn Youngkin is so racist the Lincoln Project had to manufacture a hoax to make him look racist. ". . .Tucker Carlson Just Buries Eric Swalwell for Falling for 'Tiki Torch’ Hoax as More Questions Are Raised  .  .  . "In addition to that, early Friday afternoon – two hours after he commented on the tiki torch photo that the NBC News reporter had tweeted out, Swalwell also urged his followers to follow radical Dem activist Lauren Windsor, who Swalwell claims has the goods on Republicans in regards to the Capitol riot. Why is that relevant? Because late Friday afternoon, Windsor admitted to her role in the Lincoln Project tiki torch stunt:

Lauren Windsor :  
In my capacity as a communications consultant, I worked w to coordinate today's Youngkin action in Charlottesville. I join them in the fight to defend our democracy from rightwing extremists and call for Glenn Youngkin to denounce Trump’s ‘very fine people.

Vice: We forced the Lincoln Project to admit they were behind the hate hoax

Clearly the Lincoln Project was happy to see their own Jussie Smollett hate hoax spread and I suspect they would have let it roll all weekend if they’d be able to. So why did they confess to their involvement a few hours later? According to Vice, it’s because they identified one of the participants as someone who has held events with the Lincoln Project.

The false religion of wokeness

Washington Examiner

. . . In colleges, the movement away from merit-based admissions has taught black students that, in a reversal of Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous formula, the color of their skin matters more than the content of their character. . .

"It’s become commonplace to argue that wokeness has all the trappings, if not the makings, of a new religion.

"The argument is persuasive. In its language and practices, wokeness imitates some of the common aspects of religions. It has myths (that America’s true founding was in 1619) and beliefs (that systemic racism permeates every aspect of America’s institutions) that believers take on faith. It has clerics — Ibram X. Kendi, Robin DiAngelo, Ta-Nehisi Coates — who speak ex cathedra. And it promises transcendence: In taking up arms against white supremacy and its effects, the righteous may participate in the defining struggle of our time.

"Thus argues John McWhorter — a professor of linguistics at Columbia, and himself a black man — in his new book, Woke Racism: How a New Religion Has Betrayed Black America. The zeal of the “Elect,” as McWhorter calls the adherents of this new creed, has made wokeness one of the most powerful forms of religious observance in America today. In a matter of years, a fringe ideology formerly limited to academia has swept through corporations, churches, schools, and federal and state governments. Addressing himself to readers half-convinced of this ideology’s truth, McWhorter argues that wokeness is harmful to the very people it purports to help.". . . Washington Examiner,

Gen. Mark Milley Finally Concerned with China’s Hypersonic Missile Capability


 Legal Insurrection   "Just a few short weeks ago, Gen. Mark A. Milley, the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, considered anti-Trump publicity and critical race theory acceptance proper priorities.

"We recently reported that the Chinese had conducted tests involving hypersonic missiles. Milley is now concerned China could be close to a “Sputnik” moment.

China’s testing of a hypersonic missile designed to evade American nuclear defenses was “very close” to a “Sputnik moment” for the United States, Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Wednesday in the first official confirmation of how Beijing’s demonstration of its weapon capabilities had taken American officials by surprise.

The tests, which could revive fears of a Cold War-like arms race, come as Beijing is spending heavily to modernize its military and may be seeking to expand its nuclear arsenal.

Two separate tests, reported earlier by The Financial Times, took place this summer, conducted in a fashion that Chinese officials knew would be highly visible to American satellites. But United States officials remained mostly silent until General Milley spoke on Wednesday, talking about the tests on a Bloomberg Television interview show hosted by David Rubenstein, the billionaire investor and philanthropist.

“I don’t know if it’s quite a Sputnik moment, but I think it’s very close to that,” General Milley said, making it clear he and other officials were surprised. The tests, he said, were a “very significant technological event,” and he said “it has all of our attention.”

The deadly word games that brought us 'Gain of Function'

"This is where Fauci's word magic comes in because in biology, the jargon term "Gain of Function" refers not to human health, but to the health of the bugs that can kill you. So you thought the NIH was about YOUR health?"

 


 James Lewis  "Take the biggest headline lie today about the origins of COVID in an enormous U.S.-funded virology lab in Wuhan, China.  Your National Institutes of Health paid for the molecular trickery that made the virus more and more deadly to human beings until the armed-up virus somehow exploded out of Wuhan and spread around the world in a matter of days and weeks.

"Except that the bug didn't spread to Chinese government centers like Beijing, which simply blocked travelers from Wuhan.

"Even Nature magazine, the oldest science magazine in the world, has called attention to the tricky terminology of "Gain of Function."  But Nature's article is still shrouded in jargon.

"In the real world, the bug's Gain of Function is a horror story.

"The biggest single bug vector at the start of the pandemic went from Wuhan to Milan, where tens of thousands of Chinese workers carried the virus to overwhelm Italy's medical system overnight.

"Thousands of patients started to choke from an unknown cause, and their panicked doctors had no idea what they were dealing with.  They were caught unprepared, and China was not going to help them figure it out.

"China knew a lot about the virus, but nobody told Italian emergency doctors, who stood by helplessly while their patients suddenly died.

"The basic science that made the virus is now called "Gain of Function" research, but any American taxpayer who reads "Gain of Function" is likely to think a half-million dollars of U.S. money was spent for our "Gain of Function."

"It's called the National Institutes of Health, isn't it?  Why are we paying for the NIH if it isn't for human health?". . . Full article...

Tucker Carlson To Release BOMBSHELL Documentary on “The True Story Behind January 6th”...”The Left is HUNTING The Right!”

 100%FedUp  "Almost single-handedly, Tucker Carlson is doing the heavy lifting for the dishonest corporate media when it comes to shining a light on the truth behind what happened on January 6th.

"For months, 100 Percent Fed Up and the Gateway Pundit have been reporting on January 6th political prisoners, false flags, and how the Democrats in conjunction with federal agents potentially set up Trump and his supporters. Those who traveled to Washington DC to demand lawmakers take a closer look at the election in contested states before certifying the election for a man who, as it turns out, is the most dangerous person to ever occupy the White House (not counting his former boss, who is likely pulling all of the strings behind the curtain in the Oval Office) are being held in solitary confinement, they are being refused medical care and basic human rights.

"Tucker Carlson was the first person on a top-rated television show to call into question the role federal agents played in the so-called “insurrection” on January 6th. (See video here). Now, he’s following up with an incredible documentary that is certain to rock the Democrat Party and dirty federal agents, (like those we discovered in the uncovering of the Russian hoax scam with Peter Strozk), to the core."...

Tucker gave us a glimpse of his story back in June:

"Biden administration operating like 'a decapitated vessel on a tricycle:' 'There's no head' ' Gutfeld

 Fox News

Rich Terrell

" 'The Five" co-host Greg Gutfeld offered up a Halloween analogy on the show Thursday to describe the Biden administration's tepid response to skyrocketing inflation and the ongoing supply chain crisis.

" 'The White House is coming to Halloween as the headless horseman because the administration has no head. There’s no leadership," he said. "There’s no face of the administration. It’s not Jen Psaki. It’s a decapitated vessel on a tricycle, is what we have right now, and there are no ideas and only spending because there’s no head.' " . . .

Why is Al Sharpton batting for Kamala Harris?

Rajan Laad  "It's excruciating to watch the irrelevant strive for publicity by gravitating toward any recording device to make provocative statements.  Reverend Al Sharpton certainly belongs to this group of démodé, publicity-seeking individuals.  He was a pioneer in his field of racial demagoguery, a man who persistently and unhesitatingly played the race card to enrich himself.

"Today, the likes of BLM have cornered the market and made him obsolete.  Perhaps in an effort to reclaim relevance, Rev. Al Sharpton detailed his thoughts on Kamala Harris's job responsibilities so far in an exclusive interview for The Root.

"As he always does, Sharpton began by taking credit for Biden choosing Kamala as his running mate:" . . .


. . . "Doesn't Sharpton know that more assignments are assigned only to those employees who are capable, adept, and demonstrably enthusiastic?

"How has Kamala fared so far?

"Biden tapped Kamala to tackle the migration challenge at the U.S. southern border.  She began with her passive-aggressive resistance to the job by taking ages to visit the border, for which she was criticized by both sides

"In her infamous interview with Lester Holt, Kamala struggled to answer a basic question of why she hadn't visited the border.  She traveled to the border only when President Trump announced that he would be visiting.  Her visits to Guatemala and Mexico yielded nothing. 

"The continued influx of illegal aliens proves that she failed quite miserably at her assignment.

"Following the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, she once again struggled to answer elementary questions, and her poorly timed cackles continued.  A BBC correspondent rightly observed that Kamala made America appear "incompetent, uncaring and unreliable.' " . . .

My interactions with African-Americans are almost universally pleasant and even uplifting. Why must we be subjected daily to these represented in media such as these? 

New Jersey Professor on White People: ‘We Got to Take These Motherf**kers Out’ "Associate professor in the Rutgers University Department of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Brittney Cooper, made the shocking remark during an event in September titled, "Unpacking the Attacks on Critical Race Theory," hosted by the far-left website The Root."...  

"A student at Rutgers University, Stephen Wallace, said he sees Cooper's comments as an incitement of violence against a group of people.

"The people that want to teach kids about America and how racist and oppressed everyone is are the real racists and oppressors," Wallace said."...

America Gone Mad

A report from abroad: Knowledgeable British and Europeans not only do not think America is back, they think it has gone mad.


Conrad Black  "After three weeks in Europe and extensive discussions with dozens of well-informed and highly placed individuals from most of the principal Western European countries, including leading members of the British government, I have the unpleasant duty of reporting complete incomprehension and incredulity at what Joe Biden and his collaborators encapsulate in the peppy but misleading phrase, “We’re back.” 

"As one eminent elected British government official put it, “They are not back in any conventional sense of that word. We have worked closely with the Americans for many decades and we have never seen such a shambles of incompetent administration, diplomatic incoherence, and complete military ineptitude as we have seen in these nine months. We were startled by Trump, but he clearly knew what he was doing, whatever we or anyone else thought about it. This is just a disintegration of the authority of a great nation for no apparent reason.”

"From the European perspective, American leadership of the West has produced excellent results and very few unpleasant surprises since the United States stepped into that role under Franklin D. Roosevelt in World War II. At that time, the entire future of Western civilization rested essentially upon the shoulders of just two men, Roosevelt and Winston Churchill, and it was the epochal good fortune of all of us that they were more than equal to their great task. The level of acuity and success of the subsequent administrations, as the competence of government of any nation must, has fluctuated. But the emphasis was on continuity, and the containment policy elaborated in the Truman Administration was generally followed through to the great bloodless victory of the West, as the Soviet Union crumbled and international Communism as we had known it evaporated.

"No one could foresee that, just 30 years after the hammer-and-sickle was hauled down over the Kremlin and Russia reverted to the European borders that it had held when it was only the Grand Duchy of Muscovy 400 years ago, the international Left would have taken over the conservation and ecology bandwagon and manipulated the leading capitalist countries into a savage assault on their own economies to reduce carbon emissions. No one could have anticipated that some African Americans would have celebrated their emancipation and the elevation of an African American president by lionizing antiwhite extremists and producing policing policies that have facilitated a vertiginous spike in violent crime in America. ". . . 

Conrad Black has been one of Canada’s most prominent financiers for 40 years, and was one of the leading newspaper publishers in the world as owner of the British telegraph newspapers, the Fairfax newspapers in Australia, the Jerusalem Post, Chicago Sun-Times and scores of smaller newspapers in the U.S., and most of the daily newspapers in Canada. He is the author of authoritative biographies of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Richard Nixon, one-volume histories of the United States and Canada, and most recently of Donald J. Trump: A President Like No Other. He is a member of the British House of Lords as Lord Black of Crossharbour.
