"HIGH on a clifftop overlooking a vast bay empty of shipping thanks to a mile-wide exclusion zone imposed by its autocratic owner, a giant glistening palace built to one man’s ludicrous vainglory peeps through a woodland screen. For years ‘living like royalty’ has been the phrase by which ordinary people have focused their envies and ambitions. But this gargantuan, surreal edifice, which swarms over 190,000 square feet, is beyond the delusions of grandeur of even the maddest of acquisitive monarchs. In size and opulence it makes the homes of our Royal Family look positively diminutive and threadbare — and that is before we take so much as a glimpse through the keyhole. For inside it is a temple to gaudy vulgarity and a monument to money-no-object bad taste. "... Bigger than Buckingham Palace, grander than Versailles, it dwarfs in scale the comparable home of any other global leader. But in its extravagance it mirrors the remarkable rise and rise of President Putin who, in little more than three decades, has transformed himself from impecunious KGB officer to become — reputedly — one of the richest men in the world with a fortune of £160 billion ($218 billion)."

"AS for the Patriot movement; I insist that there has been a methodical, deliberate, and long-range program to destroy it from within, while its members never [knew] what happened. "First; the globalists needed to financially and mentally demoralize the patriots by cleverly placing carefully chosen change agents into the movement who dispensed antithetical advice on how to survive. This mindset was quickly absorbed into the tenets of the movement and it has been a slow agonizing slide since the 1980’s." Read more at Know Your Adversary.  

WORKERS in India have faked taking the COVID "vaccine." This practice might take hold in this country too. Nurses could look away while a patient slips a piece of cardboard between the needle and the arm. In related news, baseball legend Hank Aron died 18 days after getting the jab at age 86. Now, if he died 18 days after getting a positive "test" for COVID, they would say he died of COVID. But since he has died 18 days after getting the "vaccine," they will say he died of old age. Thousands of people have had adverse reactions to the COVID shots and 181 deaths have been reported officially.  

AMAZING Polly and Mike King are still pushing the QAnon narrative. Truly disgraceful. By the way, if there is anyone out there reading this who was snookered by the Q phenomenon, please understand that the most important thing you can do right now is not be hard on yourself. Learn from it. Move on. Use it. We've all been deceived at one point or another. Don't let yourself be demoralized. You didn't lie; they did.  

"LOOK, then, O Soldier of Christ! upon us, and pity us as thou did thy brethren, who once faltered in the combat. Alas! We let everything frighten and discourage us; and oftentimes we are enemies of the Cross, even while professing that we love it. We too easily forget that we cannot be companions of the martyrs unless our hearts have the generosity of the martyrs. We are cowardly in our contest with the world and its pomps; with the evil propensities of our nature, and the tyranny of our senses—and thus we fall. And when we have made an easy peace with God, and sealed it with the sacrament of his love, we behave as though we had now nothing more to do than to go on quietly to heaven, without further trials or self-imposed sacrifices. Rouse us, great Saint! from these illusions, and waken us from our listless life. Our love of God is asleep, and all must needs go wrong. "Preserve us from the contagion of bad example, and of those worldly maxims which gain currency even with Christian minds, because Christian lips call them rules of Christian prudence. Pray for us, that we may be ardent in the pursuit of our sanctification, watchful over our inclinations, zealous for the salvation of others, lovers of the Cross, and detached from earthly things. Oh! by the arrows which pierced thee, we beseech thee shield us from those hidden…

AMERICA at large doesn't know how dangerous this man is, but Pennsylvanians do. Dr. Richard Levine, aka "Rachel" Levine, has been picked by Joe Biden to be his assistant secretary of health. Levine is currently Health Secretary of Pennsylvania. He may be one of the most hated bureaucrats in America. He has caused unnecessary deaths, untold suffering and economic devastation. To top it off, Levine, who adamantly insists he is a woman, wants laws to silence anyone challenging his sort of mental condition. That's why, of course, he has been chosen. When it comes to a virus that has never been isolated and purified in a lab or shown to be contagious by healthy people, the "science doesn't lie." When it comes to a universal fact recognized by all of humanity, it does. Can you imagine a health secretary who doesn't acknowledge the basics of biology? Sadly, you can. In other words, he's a perfect fit for the Biden regime. Levine played, and continues to play, open favoritism towards major corporations and big business. He allowed a large amusement park, Hershey Park, to open at 50 percent capacity while smaller fairs and businesses were shut down. He continues to persecute restaurants. He is famous for having taken his mother out of a nursing home right before he ordered sick hospital patients to be returned to nursing homes, where they caused illness and strained available resources. He's a COVID crook who…

(CONTAINS vulgar language.) THIS could have been staged too, of course. But still what he says is true.  

"FOR to enter by this door of humility, thou must be earnest to embrace tribulations, and esteem them as thy sisters, and wish to be despised by all men, and that none do comfort thee but God. Let this be thy settled persuasion, that only God is thy whole joy, and that all other things be but thorns to thee. And think thou to thyself, that if thou wert led to some place, where thou shouldst receive some disgrace and affront, yet thou wouldst go willingly and with joy, being sure that God is with thee. And fix thyself firmly to wish and desire no other honour than to do that that is for His honour and glory, and to suffer for love of Him. Thou must also force thyself to be glad when any one wrongeth thee with injurious words, and despiseth or rebuketh thee; for, under this rugged bark is a hidden treasure. Tribulation taken in patience is a purging herb, that scoureth out the dregs of our imperfections and offences. Moreover, to suffer with Christ crucified is the only true glory; but to follow one’s own will and desires, endeth in perdition." --- Father John de Bovilla, The Quiet of the Soul (Thomas Richardson and Sons, London; 1852)
