FRENCH presidential candidate Marine Le Pen has announced that if she is elected in May, French citizens will not be able to hold simultaneous citizenship in Israel. In the United States, citizens of Israel may hold dual citizenship and even hold influential government posts. This is a common sense measure that prevents conflicts of interest. Trump should do the same. In Israel, one cannot become a citizen unless one can prove one is genetically Jewish. Le Pen is, of course, being accused of anti-Semitism. Citizens of the United States and all other countries outside the EU would also have to choose between citizenship in France and their home country, she said. See commentary on other recent developments in France, including the Le Pen ad above, at Galliawatch.

ANN CORCORAN at Refugee Resettlement Watch continues to report on Trump's suspension of the refugee influx: One more thing before I give you a few snips from the “chaos” news.  Don’t allow anyone to use the argument made at the end of this article that we only take a fraction compared to say Turkey or Pakistan. Our refugees become permanent citizens and those presently swamping those countries will not be accepted as citizens.  They will be expected to return to their own countries when the conflict ends. Mark my words, if this flow from Syria to America gets going full steam, as it has for Somalia, we will still be taking Syrians for decades no matter what happens in their homeland.

I HOPE I am the first to wish you and your families a most joyous and love-filled National Pizza Day!

This is a time to celebrate. A holiday established by the bigwigs in the Pizza Industrial Complex is indeed a special occasion. And celebrate you should. Instead of having just four slices today, have eight! Instead of giving your children just pizza bagels for breakfast and Pizza Crunchables for lunch, go on and have yummy pizza burgers (above) for dinner too. It’s the patriotic thing to do. Pizza may have originated in Italy, but America has devoted so much culinary creativity and capitalist energy to this dish that pizza, in its modern industrial form, can rightfully be said to be American, not Italian. Who needs home-cooked meals when you can have a hot dog pizza with FREE mustard dip instead?! Who needs Mom when Papa Johns is just a phone call away? Pizza stands for progress.

  "From infancy, almost, the average girl is told that marriage is her ultimate goal; therefore her training and education must be directed toward that end. Like the mute beast fattened for slaughter, she is prepared for that." --- Emma Goldman, "Marriage and Love," 1914 [BRIEF AND INSUFFICIENT COMMENT: Have you met many women, except those suffering from unfortunate handicaps, who are mute? A great many women excel -- far more than men -- at expressing their feelings and interests. As for Goldman's comparison of women preparing for marriage to animals, need we say more about the thinking of this Marxist bully whose writings are still disseminated in institutions of "higher" education throughout the American Waste Land?]

  "IF there were to be any difference between a girl's education and a boy's, I should say that of the two the girl should be earlier led, as her intellect ripens faster, into deep and serious subjects; and that her range of literature should be, not more, but less frivolous."  --- John Ruskin, Sesame and Lilies, 1865

Regarding your reader who objected to your posting the picture of Lady Gaga and the reference to Mike King’s website — I applaud your gracious accommodation to the reader. And, of course, you do not recommend your website for children because of the serious and worrisome content.

Good grief! For that matter, I don’t recommend your website for me!!! I find the content too serious and worrisome, and I am 70. Same goes for Tomato Bubble.

You are so correct, however. You can’t “cover the cultural apocalypse without objectionable evidence.”

More disturbing content on your website: “Kabbala Comes to the White House.” Dr. Drolesky nails it. And that’s a really disgusting picture — LGBT for Trump. (more…)

OUR monetary system places great burdens on families and makes it difficult for men to be providers and women to be nurturers. Furthermore the policy of full employment is ineffective and unnecessary — and difficult to achieve with advanced technology, which eliminates many jobs. The basic problem is not simply jobs, but availability of money.

Michael Watson at the Clifford Hugh Douglas Institute for the Study and Promotion of Social Credit writes that there is a better way.

Social Credit, by wresting control of the overall policy of the monetary system from the private banks and placing it back in the hands of the public via the establishment of a National Credit Office, would break the monopoly of the private banks regarding the issuance of new money. The NCO’s new compensatory consumer credit (meant to balance the flow of incomes with the flow of prices) would be ‘debt-free’ and it would be issued in the form of a national or citizen’s dividend that is distributed equally to every individual, employed or unemployed, as a kind of credit for the work of the vast and abundant production made available by machinery. All citizens who receive the dividend are effectively shareholders in the total national production. The National Dividend will ensure at least basic economic security for individuals and by extension, their family units, without making employment a strict necessity. (more…)

  PRESIDENT Trump endorsed non-interventionism during his campaign, but he is now considering Elliott Abrams for Deputy Secretary of State. Abrams is an arch-supporter of the failed and destructive interventionist foreign policy of the last 15 years. This would be refilling the swamp big-time. An extreme interventionist, Abrams does not have a squeaky clean background. He was convicted of crimes for withholding information from Congress during the Iran-Contra affair. He has never seen a regime change he didn't like and is committed to overthrowing the government of Iran. Daniel McAdams, in the exchange with Ron Paul below, says, "Everything (Abrams) has promoted has been a disaster." I especially recommend Paul's comments, starting at roughly minute 11:00, about empire building and the War on Terror. In response to Trump's plan to invest more in the military because it would be good for the country, he says, "This is disinvestment. This is taking wealth and capital away from our country and throwing it down the drain and creating more enemies. This is so negative, this whole policy." "I am convinced that the people who have to fight and pay for the wars, they don't want this. But once it's driven that there's a Hitler out there and you have to destroy them ... then [you're told] you don't love America" if you don't support the War on Terror. An Abrams appointment would be a big step toward further war in the Middle East.…

THE REV. Anthony Cekada, of St. Gertrude the Great Roman Catholic Church in Ohio, recently received ten months of treatment for bladder cancer under the supervision of an accomplished oncologist.

At the end of this period of surgery and chemotherapy, both of which were apparently successful, the priest thanked the doctor. He then returned the favor and gave the doctor, who had described himself as “spiritual but not religious,” a theological diagnosis.

In a sermon called “Faith, Feelng, Authority, Healing,” Fr. Cekada recounts their interesting conversation. (more…)

  NOT a single one of the Apostles ever laid eyes on or read what we know of as the Bible. If the Bible is the infallible source of the Christian religion, then how could they be true Christians? If the Bible is the means to salvation, how could Our Lord's dearest friends and followers have been saved? Christ did not tell the Apostles, "Go forth and write Bibles and distribute them." He said, "Go forth and teach ye all nations."

AN AUSTRALIAN professor of quantum physics recently objected to changes made in university physics standards to attract more women: Delivering the 2017 Australia Day address on Tuesday, Professor [Michelle] Simmons said it was a "disaster" to try to make physics more appealing to girls by substituting rigorous mathematical problem-solving with qualitative responses.

CHINESE PARENTS, most of whom have only one child, are sending their children to American high schools in the hope that they will be admitted to top universities here. Brook Larmer of The New York Times reports:

In 2005, only 641 Chinese students were enrolled in American high schools. By 2014, that student population approached 40,000 — a 60-fold increase in a single decade — and it now accounts for nearly half of all international high-school students in the United States. “Parents realize that they have to start earlier if they want their children to get into a top U.S. university,” says Nini Suet, founder of Shang Learning, a boutique consultancy with headquarters in Beijing that charges $25,000 to $40,000 to help Chinese kids prepare for and apply to American boarding schools. “Families are looking for any edge they can get.” (more…)

You have many good and beautiful posts. To comment on the evils which deluge our society is useful. However, to post obscene pictures and to refer to other blogs that are vulgar is not helpful. It only puts thoughts and pictures into our minds that we should not have. Catholics are taught to avoid immoral literature and pictures. You are not helpful by posting such material. A good example of this is today’s comments and pictures from yesterday’s Super Bowl. I would not want my grandchildren reading your website. (more…)

DR. THOMAS A. DROLESKEY writes:

We face a very insidious situation at this time as a president undertakes some actions that are undoubtedly in the public interest while winking at the institutionalization of grave evils. What makes the situation even more insidious is that the raging hatred that is organized and funded by all manner of Judeo-Masonic sources predisposes many Catholics who were up in arms against the efforts of the administrations of William Jefferson Blythe Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro to institutionalize and protect more and more moral evils under the cover of the civil law by means of taxpayer dollars to keep their peace, if not totally ignore, policies by a Republican president to promote the same evils by the same means.

To wit, none other than the practitioner of Kabbala named Ivanka Trump Kushner, who is the wife of presidential counsel and fellow Kabbalist Jared Kushner, prevailed upon her father, President Donald John Trump, not to issue an executive order that would give employers more freedom to protect themselves, their families and their employees from sodomites in the work place:

Ivanka Trump also weighed, behind the scene, on a policy matter. Along with Kushner, she discouraged a possible executive order that would have affected LGBTQ workplace rights and she supported a White House statement pledging to leave intact a 2014 executive order that protects workers for federal contractors from anti-LGBTQ discrimination, according to a person with knowledge of Ivanka Trump’s role in the discussion. Her involvement was first reported by Politico. (Ivanka Trump Has Big White House Role Without A Title.) (more…)

THERE seem to be some "self-absorbed, Promethean neo-Pelagians" and "leprous courtiers" afoot in the Eternal City. Call me Jorge reports on the hundreds of anti-Francis posters that appeared in Rome last weekend.

  "POPE" Francis, who, like his immediate predecessors, has fooled millions of decent people into believing one doesn't have to be Catholic to be "Catholic" (or Pope), found spiritual inspiration this weekend in that most wholesome of cultural events -- the Super Bowl. (See video below.) I have never heard anyone  -- even die-hard fans -- argue that this modern-day gladiator show promotes world peace and self-sacrifice, but leave it to the motor-mouth in the Occupied Vatican to come up with that particular bit of globalist, pseudo-spiritual tripe. Can you imagine St. Peter, the first Pope, waxing eloquent over the Stupor Bowl ... the thought is too outrageous and blasphemous to contemplate. But if a real Pope were to speak on the Super Bowl, you would expect that he would condemn it. Big-time, modern sports spectacles threaten world peace and self-sacrifice. Sports can indeed be healthy and normal, but the Super Bowl is garbage. No matter how good the chicken wing recipes and fun get-togethers may be, the Super Bowl brings satanic music rituals, false patriotism, intense commercialism, militaristic arrogance, unhealthy sports regimens and a mob mentality into millions of homes. It is corrupting, Frank, not ennobling. The athletic industrial complex is bread-and-circuses that corrupt the normal man's desire for fun and athletics, and distracts men from the fight to defend their souls, their homes, and their nations from those who use "world peace" as a pretext for world conquest. Jorge Bergoglio is everything…
