Daily Verse | Psalm 24:3-4 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear by what is false.
Tuesday’s Reading: Psalms 25-30
Tuesday the 13th. Why aren’t we afraid of this day? Doesn’t matter anyway since there’s so much chaos ripping across the fruited plain every day of the week.
My short screed this morning is that “they” are lying directly to our face, “they” being the illegal junta occupying the White House.
The White House defended [R]esident Joe Biden’s economic record on Monday as the nation experienced historic inflation, gas prices over $5 a galloon and the stock market dropping.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre argued President Biden actually made historic economic gains, which would help the American people go through these economic ‘challenges.’
She blamed inflation – prices in May were 8.6% higher than a year earlier – the greatest increase since 1981 – on the covid pandemic and on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in the Ukraine.
Nobody but hard core progressives believe any of this nonsense.
But, she argued, that America would bounce back under Biden.
‘The American people are well positioned to face these challenges because of the economic historic gains that we have made under this president in the last six months,’ she noted.
“Economic historic gains” they’ve made? What are they talking about?
The stock market is now in bear territory and “the stock market has lost all the gains it made since [R]esident Joe Biden was sworn into office.”
The S&P 500 took a sharp downturn, closing on Monday 151 points below where it was in January of 2021. The other two major indexes, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq Composite fell by 876 points and 530 points respectively, both below where they were when Biden took office.
Cryptocurrency has also taken a hit. Bitcoin lost 15% of its value, and Ethereum lost 16%, according to Fortune.
Gasoline now averages $5 per gallon nationally, for the first time ever, and consumer prices reached their highest point in over forty years, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 8.6% over the last year.
Thousands of Californians are fleeing to Mexico amid the soaring cost of living in the golden state. Americans taking advantage of work from home are reaping the benefits of US salaries, while living off Mexico’s cheaper lifestyle.
Is it “cheaper lifestyle” or cheaper cost of living?
Others are living in Mexico, while commuting to work in the US. But critics have argued that the influx of Americans in cities south of the border has begun to price out local Mexicans.
Given the number of Mexicans living here in the U.S., it’s hard to generate any outrage from me about wealthier Americans “pricing out” locals in Mexico. What, are they getting a steal on real estate?
It comes amid a wider exodus of Californians to other states across the US, including Texas, Washington, and Arizona.
Many feel forced out by rocketing inflation in the golden state that has gas, grocery, and living costs soaring under Governor Gavin Newsom.
So Brandon is crowing about our “historic economic gains,” gains so awesome that U.S. citizens are fleeing to a third world country to avoid the tax burdens and soaring prices here.
The fact that the administration would straight-up lie to us is no way to restore any semblance of credibility. Not that they had any, anyway. But, still.
Daily Verse | Psalm 18:30 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless; He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.
Monday’s Reading: Psalms 19-24
It’s Monday and occasionally I hear a weekend message at my church that provokes some thought and I work through it here. That happened this weekend with the fifth in a series called “Kingdom Over Politics.” Over the past five weeks we’ve covered Civility, Sexuality, Life, Racial Justice, and yesterday, Immigration.
The series has been very well done. Apart from “civility,” which was about how we speak to and listen to each other, our lead pastor said that, generally speaking, sexuality and life are thought of as “red” political issues in our society, while racial justice and immigration are considered “blue” political issues. His overarching point is that they are neither “red” nor “blue” issues, but biblical issues. As believers, we need to start not with our political point of view, but with what the scriptures say about each issue.
I not only agree with that but would argue that starting with what the scriptures say about anything is the right place to start.
However.
We had guest speaker yesterday who led off with what I think is one of the most irresponsibly used arguments in support of welcoming the refugee, the legal immigrant, or the illegal alien. In its simplest form, it’s “Jesus was a refugee.”
The reference, of course, is to when Joseph and Mary fled with Jesus to Egypt while king Herod was committing infanticide in an effort to kill the child who would one day become the King of kings.
There was a real threat to the life of the child, Jesus. They had to escape, and they did, to Egypt.
The argument then, is that because Jesus was a refugee, we must welcome the refugee into our country.
Here’s the relevant passage (courtesy The Bible Gateway, linked):
The kind of arguments I hear that use this passage come from a variety of sources, including one of my former professors at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Scot McKnight.
In this post, McKnight reflects on M. Daniel Carroll R.’s take on Jesus in his book, The Bible and Borders: Hearing Godâs Word on Immigration. McKnight’s summary of Carroll’s writing is typical of Christian progressives who advocate for taking in and caring for foreigners, legal or not.
Call it what you want, but the holy familyâs experience is one of flight, hiding, refuge and seeking asylum in a foreign country where they could be surrounded by and welcomed by fellow Jews. Only after it was safe did they return, and even then they went to Nazareth to escape the eyes of the powerful.
Here we find elements to consider for immigration. If Jesus was an immigrant, I wonder to myself, are we not to see Jesus in all those seeking asylum in the USA?
Well, first of all, I don’t call it “seeking asylum in a foreign country.” More on that below.
As with others who use this argument, his conclusions are limited by what I think is a superficial inference in an otherwise multi-dimensional story that has nothing to do with immigration.
It’s clear what he’s focusing on: Jesus as an immigrant. From that he extrapolates seeing “Jesus in all those seeking asylum in the USA.”
I reject his premise outright.
To be clear, I do not reject seeing Jesus in another person, citizen or foreigner. None of us has ever locked eyes with anyone who didn’t matter to God or to Jesus. As Matthew also makes clear (chapter 25), when we minister to the marginalized, we minister to Jesus: “‘I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'”
Having said that, there are at least five reasons why I reject McKnight’s â and our guest speaker’s â reasoning.
This event was uniquely about Jesus. Jesus was the target, not Joseph and Mary. “Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.” Jesus was the only person being sought by the authorities in an ill-advised attempt to snuff out his life before it really got started.
It’s true that Joseph and Mary might have been in danger as collateral damage, since Herod’s soldiers had their orders and wouldn’t let a mother’s or father’s attempts to resist stop them. They also didn’t let boys who weren’t Jesus stand in their way. That’s why this event is referred to as the Massacre of the Innocents.
Please note that God did not tell the other families with two-year-old boys to flee to Egypt. Why not? Didn’t they suffer a horrific loss because of Herod’s wickedness?
The reason is that this moment was specific to who Jesus was â the Son of God â and what he came here to do. It was a limited action by Herod, with a specific goal â to eliminate one toddler who threatened his power.
Divine revelation was involved. Jesus was taken to Egypt by his parents because his father received a special revelation from God, telling him what Herod was going to do. Joseph did not know that Jesus would be targeted. He did not, of his own accord, decide to flee Bethlehem for Egypt because he was being oppressed or persecuted.
But those who advocate for liberal immigration policies move from the one specialized case of Jesus to justify the millions of refugees, immigrants and illegal aliens pouring into our nation. We’re talking about one family of three people. There was no mass exodus of Jewish people to Egypt when they fled. The idea that there is any parallel to our modern-day illegal immigration or refugee crisis, especially in the U.S., is completely unfounded.
Egypt was part of the Roman empire. The idea of Jesus fleeing to another country as a parallel to what we’re experiencing today also doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. While Egypt was a different country, Jesus and his family never left the Roman empire. Egypt was under Roman rule, just as Israel was.
As near an analogy I can make is if someone in Ohio fled to Indiana to escape a stalker. While it’s true they crossed a border, we wouldn’t consider them a refugee because they never left the United States. Similarly, it’s possible (but unprovable) that the family wound up in Alexandria, Egypt, which had a large Jewish community at the time.
Jesus returned to Israel. I reject the use of Jesus’ journey to Egypt to justify “welcoming the refugee” because Jesus didn’t stay in Egypt. The young family returned home to Israel. I find it curious that those who use this argument never seem to get around to that part of the story. If we’re going to use this as a case study for immigration, then we need to use all of it.
Again, we find that this event is unique to who Jesus is. God directs Joseph through another revelation to go back to Israel because “those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.” The majority of refugees, immigrants or illegal aliens here in this country are making a great effort to stay here permanently.
The story is a proof of Jesus’ identity. We also need to consider why Matthew wrote his gospel. In the Life Application Study Bible’s introduction to his gospel we read, “Matthew wrote this Gospel to his fellow Jews to prove that Jesus is the Messiah and to explain God’s kingdom.” He seems to have been writing to a smaller Jewish-Christian community in conflict with a larger unbelieving Jewish community.
As a result, one of thematic features of the whole Gospel of Matthew is his constant referrals to prophecy in the Jewish scriptures being fulfilled in Jesus. That promise-fulfillment theme is meant to confirm the identity of Jesus to his Jewish readers, to give them confidence in whom they have put their trust, and to help those who don’t believe to reconsider their rejection of the Messiah.
Matthew makes clear why he includes this story in his gospel: “So was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: ‘Out of Egypt I called my Son.'” The story was decidedly not included as a proof-text for policy or attitude on immigration. In fact, those who use it (as McKnight or our guest speaker did) are performing eisogesis, which simply means interpreting the bible by reading into it one’s own ideas.
Progressives use the “Jesus was a refugee” argument, based on this passage in Matthew, to advocate for anyone and everyone who comes to our country to be let in, and to accuse those who disagree as being “unChristian” or “unloving” or “denying Jesus.” You wouldn’t turn away Jesus, would you? But this passage is irresponsibly pressed into service when it comes to the debate on welcoming the refugee, the immigrant or the illegal alien.
Having said that, we are to love the foreigner, yes, no matter how they got here, no matter their immigration status, no matter their tribe, tongue or theology.
So why does this discussion matter? If we are going to use scripture to justify or advocate for a specific position on an issue, then it must be used accurately. In this case, I don’t believe it is.

Daily Verse | Psalm 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
Friday and the close of another week, a week that saw a serious threat on the life of a Supreme Court Justice, our senior executive (emphasis on senior) “joking” that all Republicans need to go to jail as his brain goes on the fritz, the “paused” Ministry of Truth (Disinformation Governance Board) outed as a vehicle to monitor and restrict the free speech of American citizens, an actor I admired somehow gains the White House podium and gives a moving but, ultimately, lousy speech on gun control, Brandon is heckled at the Americas neighborhood conference as several countries skip it, we’ve got a new and improved caravan of 15,000 aliens moving up through Mexico demanding to be let in, and the desperate Democrat’s January 6 committee began televising their show trial in the hopes of driving a great turnout in November.
Scam likely!
But underneath all the scamming going on for the cameras, the numbers tell the story. Resident Brandon who represents the Democrats, is on the skids and can’t seem to stop. According to RedState, “heâs already lower [in the polls] than all modern presidents who held the office.”
Here’s a look at how the Chucklehead in Chief is doing.
Joe Biden’s approval ratings for his handling of these key issues are all well underwater, suggesting trouble for the president and Democratic candidates ahead of the midterm. Only 37% approve of Bidenâs handling of the economic recovery, and even fewer approve of his handling of inflation (28%) and gas prices (27%).
81 million votes just … gone. Where did they all go?
Scam likely!
In an April ABC News/Ipsos poll, there was a 20-point gap between Republicans and Democrats in enthusiasm to vote this November, with 55% percent of Republicans saying they were very enthusiastic about voting compared to 35% of Democrats. That gap has narrowed somewhat in this poll, but Republicans still enjoy a significant advantage with 57% saying they are enthusiastic about voting compared to 44% of Democrats.
You know why Republicans are so enthusiastic? Because conservatives are SANE.
BREAKING: Gas prices have now DOUBLED since Joe Biden took office.
âOn inflation, itâs 28 percent; with 68 percent disapproving. That is a very, very, very, very, very bad number,â Enten explained, when Americans say that the most urgent issue to them is inflation, at 33 percentâfar and away outpacing abortion. So, if Democrats thought that pro-abortion anger was going to win it for them, they might need to think again.
How about the new Quinnipiac poll?
Wow. Biden's approval rating is under 50% among Black voters in new Quinnipiac poll. 24% among Hispanics, 22% among 18-34 yr olds. The only two groups giving him majority approval: Dems and college-educated whites. pic.twitter.com/voembPdHP4
“College-educated whites.” LOL. How much you want to bet that the majority of those are wine moms living the vida loca and demanding to see the manager?
Worse still for Democrats, Republicans lead them by 3 percentage points among Hispanics. As Giancarlo Sopo tweeted, “THIS is why Democrats are buying Hispanic radio stations. They’re terrified.”
When it comes to winning control of Congress, 46% prefer Republicans while 41% prefer Democrats.
In new Zogby polls, heâs also lost a lot of ground with young people, suburbanites, women, minorities (especially Hispanics), and union members. Iâm not sure who is left after that for Democrats. Biden is now underwater in Hispanic approval, with 45 percent disapproval and 44 percent approval. The reason why? Just 27 percent think the country is heading in the right direction.
Only Brandon thinks the country is heading in the right direction.
The latest survey found that 58% of voters disapprove of Bidenâs job performance and 39% approve. It marks the 46th presidentâs lowest approval rating and highest disapproval rating in 62 weekly surveys conducted since he took office in January 2021.
For comparison, Bidenâs latest numbers are worse than Donald Trumpâs were at this time four years ago, when 45% approved and 52% disapproved of the former president. Bidenâs popularity, or lack thereof, mirrors Trumpâs standing in June 2020, when the nation was grappling with the twin crises of the pandemic and the response to the murder of George Floyd.
Republicans are far more strident in their disdain for Biden than Democrats are in their support: 80% of GOP voters âstrongly disapproveâ of Bidenâs job handling, compared with 37% of Democrats who âstrongly approveâ of it.
… The economy grew at a pace of 4.1 percent in the final three months of 2020, faster than expected and much better than it had earlier in the year. By any objective measure, the economy was getting betterâbut Democrats were in deep denial about that fact.
This flipped once Biden took office. In March of 2021, sixty-seven percent of Democrats said the economy was getting better, and just 11 percent said it was getting worse, according to the Civiqs tracking poll.
This shift was particularly striking given the actual trajectory of the economy. By the first quarter of 2022, real GDP growth actually turned negative. Real wages declined despite unemployment returning to the pre-pandemic Trump-era lows. The economy was recovering to an objectively worse state than we had experienced before the pandemic.
This fantasy of an economic boom could not lastâand it did not. The most recent Civiqs tracking poll shows 41 percent of Democrats saying the economy is getting worse, and just 24 percent say it is getting better.
Biden has lost the Democrats when it comes to the economy.
Well, except the college-educated white women who think things are fab.
Brandon is tanking and has been for months. He’s an incompetent buffoon who only pretends to be in charge. Scam not only likely, but provable.
My hope is that if the motivation to vote is high, and some of the loopholes used to “fortify” the election have been zipped shut, we might see a true reflection of the will of the people. As Hugh Hewitt once observed, “If it’s not close, they can’t cheat.“
This could be a wave election but, to be honest, I can’t be optimistic about the outcome until the voting booths close and we see what the polls have been telling us reflected in the results. That’s how much damage the Democrats, anarchists, antifa, progressives and anti-American Leftists have done to our representative republic.
1 Why do the nations conspire     and the peoples plot in vain? 2 The kings of the earth rise up     and the rulers band together     against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, 3 âLet us break their chains     and throw off their shackles.â
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;     the Lord scoffs at them. 5 He rebukes them in his anger     and terrifies them in his wrath, saying, 6 âI have installed my king     on Zion, my holy mountain.â

Thursday’s Reading: Psalms 1-6
Happy Thursday and let’s jump right into the anarchy that the anti-American progressive Marxist true believers, including Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Adam Schiff, AOC, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger and other RINOs, have unleashed on our country.
The armed California man arrested near the Maryland home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh Wednesday morning has been identified as Nicholas John Roske, law enforcement sources tell Fox News.
Roske of Simi Valley, California, was carrying a gun, knife and pepper spray when arrested and had made violent threats against Kavanaugh, sources said. Roske was picked up on a nearby street after calling police on 911 to report himself.
A criminal complaint obtained by Fox News shows that Roske is being charged with attempting to murder a United States Supreme Court Justice. He is scheduled to have a first appearance in federal court in Maryland Wednesday afternoon.
He told officers that he wanted “to give his life purpose” and purchased the gun and other items for the purpose of breaking into Kavanaughâs home and killing the justice and then himself. Roske admitted in a second interview with the FBI of his intent to kill Kavanaugh and himself, according to an affidavit in support of the criminal complaint.
Roske told detectives that “he was upset about the leak of a recent Supreme Court draft decision regarding the right to an abortion as well as the recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas,” and believed Kavanaugh “would side with Second Amendment decisions that would loosen gun control laws,” according to the affidavit.
White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement that Joe Biden âcondemns the actions of this individual in the strongest termsâ and that heâs âgrateful to law enforcementâ for quickly taking the suspect into custody.
âAs the President has consistently made clear, public officialsâincluding judgesâmust be able to do their jobs without concern for their personal safety or that of their families,â Bates said in the statement. âAnd any violence, threats of violence, or attempts to intimidate justices have no place in our society.â
Pfffft. I’m old enough to remember this attempt “to intimidate justices” over abortion:
WATCH: Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer threatens U.S. Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.
"You have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price! You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions!"pic.twitter.com/e1qKzocJDj
And this attempt to intimidate members of Trump’s cabinet:
Democrats were silent when Maxine Waters called for people to confront members of Trumpâs cabinet in public places but are now accusing Republicans of putting Ilhan Omarâs life in danger by quoting her word for word…? pic.twitter.com/UXAgFqzjbO
âYou cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about,â Clinton declared in a recent CNN interview. When and if Democrats assume power in Congress, she said, âthatâs when civility can start again.â Members of the American left agreed; those on the American right did not.
The Democrats are the ones calling for violence. It’s the progressives who rant and rave, who agitate, who act violently, who have fire-bombed pro-life clinics. The violence is coming from the Left, not the Right.
I wonder if Roske was on Merrick Garland’s list of domestic terrorists?
After the leak of the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, the Senate introduced and passed the Supreme Court Police Parity Act, by unanimous consent. It’s now stalled in the Democrat-controlled House where they’re hoping one of the conservative justices will be assassinated so that they can quickly replace him or her with a trans-woman-of-color.
Following news of the arrest, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell urged Democrats to pass the Supreme Court security bill.
âHouse Democrats must pass this bill and they need to do it today. No more fiddling around with this, they need to pass it today ⌠before the sun sets,â he said on the Senate floor.
A black tactical chest rig and tactical knife, Glock 17 pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, screwdriver, nail punch, crowbar, pistol light, duct tape, hiking boots with padding on the outside of the soles, and other items were found in his suitcase and backpack.
He apparently was planning to murder Justice Kavanaugh, then kill himself. Instead, he was arrested and charged with attempted murder.
Chief Justice Roberts is partly culpable for this turn of events. Writes Josh Blackman:
Every day that goes by, and Dobbs remains undecided, is a day that the lives of the Justices and their families are at risk. Immediately after the leak, I wrote that the Court should issue a one-sentence per curiam opinion, with a reasoned decision to follow–follow the path of Ex Parte Quirin. Lurking in the back of mind was the risk that a Justice could be assassinated. Now, that risk looks so much more real …
… Why is there a delay? So Roberts can take yet another ill-fated attempt to pick off one or two votes? A real leader would have put aside his quixotical quest for balance. Every day that passes, as the Chief haggles over votes, a target remains on the backs of his colleagues.
The Dobbs 5 should immediately issue an unsigned per curiam order, with an opinion to follow, even over the Chief Justice’s objection. The Justices should send a clear and unequivocal message that they will not be intimidated by these acts of violence.
This is where the progressive Left has brought us: conspiracies, mob tactics, intimidation, and near-assassination attempts. That’s how they intend to get the outcomes they want. Not through the democratic process, but through force.
Daily Verse | Job 40:8 “Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself?”
Wednesday’s Reading: Job 41-42
Wednesday and a couple of nights ago we watched “What is a Woman?” starring author Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire. Bottom line on top: watch it.
In an age of progressive sexual insanity, Walsh sets out to ask experts, activists, and regular people on the street, “What is a woman?” You won’t be surprised to hear that most of them have no idea how to answer the question. Not only do they not know how to answer the question, a few of them threaten to end the interviewâand one eventually does.
My wife and I sat there, astonished, at just how inverted (at least part of) our culture has become. It is so upside-down.
Like, Sodom and Gomorrah upside-down.
Then the Lord said, âThe outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.â (Genesis 18:20-21)
Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodomâboth young and oldâsurrounded the house. They called to Lot, âWhere are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.â (Genesis 19:4-5)
Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrahâfrom the Lord out of the heavens. Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, destroying all those living in the citiesâand also the vegetation in the land. (Genesis 19:24-25)
In their sit-down, she says kids are ready for ‘medical affirmation when they ask for it’ – even if it’s before they have reached puberty.
‘Medical affirmation begins when the patient says they’re ready for it.
‘That could be a kiddo who is just starting puberty and they’re panicking because they’re just getting breast buds, or their penis is getting bigger and busier and they’re worried about all kinds of masculine changes,’ the doctor said.
That is when she says doctors can safely prescribe puberty blockers, claiming they are ‘completely reversible’ and ‘don’t have permanent effects.’
‘[They are] wonderful because we can put that pause on puberty, just like you’re listening to music.
‘You put the pause on and puberty would go right back to where it was, the next note in the song, just delay that period of time.’
Dr. Forcier also told him that his sperm doesn’t make him male and that an objective truth does not exist.
‘Whose truth are we talking about?’ she said.
‘The same truth that says we’re sitting in this room right now you and I,’ Walsh replied.
She shot back: ‘No, you’re not listening.’
Walsh pushed back: ‘If I see a chicken laying eggs and I say that’s a female chicken, did I assign female? Or am I just observing a physical reality that’s happening?’
The doctor, rejecting his argument, said: ‘Does a chicken have gender identity? Does a chicken cry? Does a chicken commit suicide? A chicken has an assigned gender but a chicken doesn’t have gender identity.’
She also said it’s only an assumption that a chicken laying eggs is female.
Among the puberty blockers that are used is Lupron, which can also be used to treat endometriosis and prostate cancer.
It has been used in the past to chemically castrate sex offenders.
Fortunately, Walsh also interviewed a Dr. Miriam Grossman, who “spoke of the dangers of prescribing kids with the drugs too early and said she’d spoken to the mother of a teenage trans girl who now has osteoporosis.” Osteoporosis is an old person’s disease.
‘How can they be removing the healthy breasts of 15-year-old girls? How can they be sterilizing kids? How can this whole thing be happening, Matt?’ she said.
I kept asking the same question throughout the documentary: “How is this possible?” It was all so absurd.
It wasn’t until Walsh flew to Africa that there was finally some relief. There, he met with tribal leaders and asked them some of the same questions he was asking in the United States.
“If you want to become a lady but you’re a man, you have something wrong in your family. Something wrong in you.” Right.
It feels so weird to have to look for some semblance of normalcy in a third-world country instead of one of the most advanced countries in history. But those tribesmen are who I identified withânot the “experts” that Walsh interviewed.
The trans-cult is truly troubling because they’re denying biological reality in favor of “feelings” or “perceptions” or “my truth.” It is irrational, meaning not logical or reasonable, detached from what is, in fact, true. And the worst part of it is that those who subscribe to such irrationality expect you to affirm their delusional views.
Some of the “experts” that Walsh interviewed got very testy or talked in circular arguments when he pushed on their assumptions. One in particular, a University of Tennessee women’s studies professor, said it was “transphobic, rude and condescending” to seek objective truth rather than accepting what people tell you.
When Walsh asked him to define what a woman is, the same professor answered, “A person who identifies as a woman.”
Walsh: “But what are they identifying as?”
Professor: “As a woman.”
Walsh: “What is that?”
Professor: “As a woman.”
A woman is a … woman. That’s the definition.
And these are the people teaching our children.
These are the people grooming our children.
These are the people abusing our children.
The Left has pushed for a utopian future, but we’re well onto the leading edge of a creeping dystopian nightmare.
“What is a Woman?” is a swift kick to the shins. As we sit in our suburban homes and attend our suburban churches, there is an evil rot saturating every facet of our society that is being ignored. At what point will sane men and women mount a counter-offensive?
Should you watch the movie? Yes, and encourage others to do the same.
Daily Verse | Job 36:16 “He is wooing you from the jaws of distress to a spacious place free from restriction, to the comfort of your table laden with choice food.”
Tuesday’s Reading: Job 38-39
There have been a handful of dreadful shootings over the last few weeks, including the NYC subway shooting, the racially-motivated bloodbath in a Buffalo, NY grocery store, and the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. There have also been several smaller, “one-off” shootings.
None of them should have happened. They aren’t what our Founders envisioned when they enshrined the right to be armed in our U.S. Constitution. What they envisioned was the right of the people to protect themselves from a tyrannical government.
America has a problem. We are guaranteed the right to keep and bear arms. But we are no longer the society in which that right was declared.
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” â John Adams
I’ve quoted this from Adams before, but I’ll keep doing so because the more I sit with it, the more profound it is. The Founding Fathers knew that freedom without virtue is license. If there’s anything that describes our society today, it’s “license.” And license is only a step removed from anarchy. All restraints, all standards, all guidelines are being thrown off in order to indulge our most naked desires or to give ourselves over to the darkest corners of our inner life.
When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful. â Proverbs 29:18 (New Living Translation)
Yet the Founders took the risk and bestowed on us our inalienable rights, including the right to keep and bear arms.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. â Second Amendment, U.S. Constitution
Brandon is going on these days about the Second Amendment not being “absolute.” (Actually, he has said that “Thereâs no amendment thatâs absolute.”) What he means by that with 2A is that there were always some kind of limits on what “Arms” a person could keep and bear. His now (several times) debunked example is that private citizens couldn’t own a cannon.
I’m not a constitutional scholar, but a straight-forward reading of the text seems to be absolute. The modal verb “shall not” is absolute. My right to keep and carry (bear) an arm may not, will not, cannot, shall not be infringed.
“Infringed” here means to limit, to undermine, to encroach upon.
Rep. Donald Beyer (D-Va.), who sits on the House Ways and Means Committee, is looking to put a 1,000% excise tax on AR-15-type rifles as a means of making them less affordable to the public.
âWhat itâs intended to do is provide another creative pathway to actually make some sensible gun control happen,â Beyer told Business Insider. âWe think that a 1,000% fee on assault weapons is just the kind of restrictive measure that creates enough fiscal impact to qualify for reconciliation.â
With the affected guns ranging in price from $500 to $2000, the tax could add as much as $20,000 to the final sale price of the weapons. While bullets would not be taxed at the high rate, high-capacity magazines would be.
Hey Don, what is it about “shall not be infringed” do you not understand? He says, right there in his quote, that it “is just the kind of restrictive measure” they want. To restrict means to limit and 2A says, absolutely, that the government SHALL NOT do that.
Every time another “gun control” law is passed or another “gun free zone” is created, our absolute right to be armed is infringed upon. In other words, a case could be made that such laws or regulations are illegal.
Now, I’m not an absolutist in the extreme. Given that we are now an immoral and irreligious people who no longer view self-control and an orderly society as virtuous, we may have to admit that some regulations are in our best interest.
But let’s be honest: regulations don’t control the heart or behavior. At best they only tell us what is “legal” and what the penalties are for breaking the law. And that’s a poor substitute for personal virtue and responsibility. Take California for example:
An FBI report on âActive Shooter Incidentsâ in 2021 shows that California was the number one state for such incidents, with six incidents total.
California is also number one for gun law strength, the Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety noted …
… California has universal background checks, an âassault weaponsâ ban, a âhigh capacityâ magazine ban, a 10-day waiting period on gun purchases, a red flag law, gun registration requirements, a âgood causeâ requirement for concealed carry permit issuance, a ban on carrying a gun on a college campus for self-defense, a ban on K-12 teachers being armed on campus for classroom defense, a background check requirement for ammunition purchases, and a limit on the number of guns a law-abiding citizen can purchase in a given month, among other controls.
All potentially illegal controls, I might add, because they violate the people’s right to “keep and bear Arms.” But the people in positions of power don’t care about our rights. They only care about getting and keeping power.
None of the gun control laws on the books stopped any of the killers I mentioned at the outset. And adding more lawsâapart from confiscating all of our guns, which is the goalâwould have done nothing more to prevent the tragedies.
Frankly, the driving force behind all the “gun control” laws is to make it as difficult to own a firearm as possible, if not make it outright impossible. Jack the price of a firearm up by 1000% and you can plausibly deny that you’re infringing on anyone’s right to keep and bear Arms. “I’m not saying you can’t keep and bear a weapon; of course you can. I’m just going to make it so expensive that most people won’t be able to.”
That’s infringement.
Worse still is a growing attitude of contempt for the U.S. Constitution. Here’s Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI) expressing his feelings about constitutional rights:
Cicilline: You know who didnât have constitutional right to life respected? The kids at Parkland and Sandy Hook and Uvalde⌠so spare me the bullshit pic.twitter.com/xji3Cv7lFr
“… so spare me the bullshit about constitutional rights.” Really? Why is this guy in Congress? Didn’t he take an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States when he took office?
Then there’s Brandon.

This is what the erosion of liberty looks like. When you have “representatives” in the legislature and executive branch who have contempt for the very ideas they swore to protect, it’s a house of cards.
And that’s an infringement on the security of our rights as citizens.
Daily Verse | Job 34:21 “His eyes are on the ways of men; he sees their every step.”
Monday’s Reading: Job 35-37
Monday and off we go into a new week.
Over the weekend I upgraded my phone, so that may have had something to do with what I’m going to share with you this morning. I have a call blocker on my phone that silences calls that it determines are solicitations or nuisance calls. Most of the time, the call is shown as the number with a notation underneath that says where it originated from (i.e. Mableton, GA) or it is labeled “unknown,” which I think means the blocker can’t determine from where the call originated.
I’ve been getting a lot of (202) area code calls, which are from Washington, DC. Since they are silenced and none leave a message, I don’t know who is calling, but my guess it is the RNC trying to hit me up for a donation. All of those calls are labeled the same way, with the phone number and the notation that it originated in Washington, DC.
After I got my new phone set up, I got a notification of a call, but it didn’t follow the previous pattern. Instead, it showed me this:
“Scam Likely” â from Washington, DC. I almost bust my gut laughing.
Is that not the truth? If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that Washington, DC is nothing but a scam.
We need to pass the bill to find out what’s in the bill.
Hillary Clinton was “extremely careless” but not criminal in running her government emails through a private email server.
Trump is a Russian asset. Trump is a racist. Trump cheated on his taxes.
We need two weeks to flatten the curve.
The vaccines are safe.
Hunter Biden’s laptop is Russian disinformation.
Joe Biden received the largest number of votes ever in American history.
The withdrawal in Afghanistan was carefully planned.
Inflation will only be transitory.
Current gas prices are because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
That little bit of serendipity on my phone summed up Washington in two words that I couldn’t have come up with in days of trying. It’s now my go-to phrase.
When it comes to anything in Washington, DC, these days, we should all pause a moment and think, “Scam Likely.”

Friday’s Reading: 29-31 Saturday’s Reading: 32-34
Friday and the close of another week as we scratch one more mark on the walls of the Indignity Hoosegow whose warden can’t read a complete sentence (much less carry on a coherent conversation with anyone) and whose staff are determined to make even the thin gruel they call food as tasteless and as expensive as possible.
There’s so much going on that it’s impossible to cover it all in anything approaching some kind of depth, not least because the news cycles so fast these days and I only write once per day. As we head into the weekend, here’s some interesting stories that I’d love to write more about, but time doesn’t allow.
The renaming is being done for a couple reasons: Racism, for one, and to make the fish sound more appealing …
… Charlie Wooley, Director of the Great Lakes regional office said they âwanted to move away from any terms that cast Asian culture and people in a negative light.â
You know, now that you mention it, I have heard a lot of Asians carping about the name.
Nah, not really. This is just another example of something that literally no one is complaining about but woke administrators have to do something to get their raise.
I remember when I was younger going to the orange and aqua blue Howard Johnson’s restaurants. Now they’re all gone.
Americaâs final Howard Johnsonâs restaurant â a 7,500-square-foot single-story diner, which had sat off Lake George, NYâs Route 9 for almost 70 years â has closed its doors, ending an era for what was once the nationâs largest restaurant chain. Itâs also now for sale â and for a price that wonât break the bank.
The nostalgia for me comes not from the food but their ubiquitous presence on family road trips.
The balloon struck a northbound Canadian National train. The occupants of the hot air balloon, three adults, suffered injuries in the crash; 2 of them were flown to Froedtert Hospital by Flight for Life. The third person was taken to Froedtert by ambulance. No other injuries were reported.
Apparently the balloon was in distress, as you can see in the picture accompanying the article. Thankfully all of them survived and are recovering at home.
Grewal is the founder of The AAPL Collection, one of the largest private collections of vintage Apple products. The collection now has nearly 200 Apple computers, and Grewal wants more people to be able to see these products in person. Thatâs why the proceeds from the sale of this Apple-1 will be used to take his âApple museumâ to more places.
This particular Apple-1 is even rarer because most of its components are still the originals. More than that, the computer is signed by Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak.
In 2021, Mr. Grewal had the opportunity to meet Steve Wozniak, aka Woz, who autographed the Apple-1. Woz chose to sign the CPU of this particular Apple-1 and was enthusiastic to see one of his creations in such remarkable condition. Only a few Apple-1 computers bear the signature of their creator, and this is the only example known to be signed on its iconic white ceramic 6502 processor.
The computer is expected to go for between $460,000 and $485,000. If you buy it based on reading this blog, my cut is $10,000.
Such carnage [Ukraine-Russia conflict] should evoke strong sentiments from any red-blooded American who believes that the defense of liberty from foreign or domestic tyrants is a fundamental human right. Still, many Americans canât imagine such a scenario occurring here. That is exactly the eventuality, however, that our Founding Fathers had in mind when they enshrined the Second Amendment in our treasured Constitution. In fact, it was considered important enough that it was placed immediately below the bedrock human functions of free exercise of religion, speech, the press and assembly. The Framers knew that, without the protection afforded by the peopleâs possession of arms, the guarantees of the other rights were mere words on paper.
During the course of my private and professional life, Iâve had the privilege of traveling in at least 30 countriesâsome near the area now engulfed in war. In each case, the peopleâs access to firearms was, by way of comparison to my own life experience, restricted significantly or prohibited outright. In time, I concluded that there simply is nowhere else on Earth where the private ownership and use of firearms is exercised as it is here in America.
Daily Verse | Job 24:13 “There are those who rebel against the light, who do not know its ways or stay in its paths.”
Thursday’s Reading: Job 25-28
Thursday and yesterday I wrote that we are living in evil times. This is, of course, a biblical concept.
Be very careful, then, how you liveânot as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. â Ephesians 5:15-16
What’s astounding to me is that even those whom we would consider coming at life from a secular perspective (i.e. following Jesus or seeking what God wants are not priorities) are seeing the evil and, more than that, sounding the alarm. As I mentioned, Dr. Naomi Wolf is on some kind of a spiritual journey, and it’s because she has no categories in which to explain what she sees happening in society.
I told the group that I was now willing to speak about God publicly, because I had looked at what had descended on us from every angle, using my normal critical training and faculties; and that it was so elaborate in its construction, so comprehensive, and so cruel, with an almost superhuman, flamboyant, baroque imagination made out of the essence of cruelty itself â that I could not see that it had been accomplished by mere humans working on the bumbling human level in the dumb political space.
I felt around us, in the majestic nature of the awfulness of the evil around us, the presence of âprincipalities and powersâ â almost awe-inspiring levels of darkness and of inhuman, anti-human forces. In the policies unfolding around us I saw again and again anti-human outcomes being generated: policies aimed at killing childrenâs joy; at literally suffocating children, restricting their breath, speech and laughter; at killing school; at killing ties between families and extended families; at killing churches and synagogues and mosques; and, from the highest levels, from the Presidentâs own bully pulpit, demands for people to collude in excluding, rejecting, dismissing, shunning, hating their neighbors and loved ones and friends.
What does it say when the collective behavior of a society is so abhorrent, so unimaginableâso wickedâthat someone who wasn’t taking God seriously is suddenly forced to reconsider their position and recategorize what they’re seeing in biblically moral terms?
And she’s not the only one writing about evil. Here’s noted columnist Daniel Greenfield in a piece called, “Uvalde and the Problem of Evil.”
What do people who donât believe in evil do? They blame inanimate objects. Guns.
19 years ago, a middle-aged unemployed taxi driver carrying two milk cartons full of gasoline walked onto a South Korean subway and started a fire that killed 192 people.
That was not a milk carton problem. Nor was it a gasoline problem.
6 years ago, a Muslim terrorist drove a truck into a Bastille Day event in Nice, France killing 86 and wounding over 400 other people. Body parts were being pried out of his wheel wells.
That was not a truck problem.
Across the long stretch of human history, millions of people were killed long before the invention of firearms, in often cruder and far more brutal ways. Back then we lacked CNN, but people generally understood that this was not due to the invention of smithing, but the problem of evil.
The problem with evil is that it requires us to believe in good.
Modern people are unwilling to believe in G-d, and so they believe instead in government. And they are convinced that the god of government can fix everything if we only give it the power.
The trouble is that while people may not believe in evil, evil very much believes in them.
Another favorite essayist is Michael Walsh. He’s written about the moral collapse before in (dense) books such as The Devil’s Pleasure Palace and The Fiery Angel. (Be sure to set aside plenty of time to absorb his perspective.) He also writes at the popular level in opinion columns at The Pipeline. Here’s some of what he wrote in his most recent column, which focuses on the lack of masculinity in our society.
No, the fault, to paraphrase Shakespeare, is not in our guns but in ourselves, and specifically in our men. For half a century masculinity has been under concerted attack in this countryâfish, bicycle is one of the more benign forms, although still passive-aggressively hatefulâuntil today it has been deemed “toxic” by the harpies of fourth-wave feminism and their very strange bedfellows in the QWERTYUIOP+ brigades. The unsurprising result has been the diminution and removal of genuine masculinity from the public squareâ even in the military, which now prizes women and trans-wokeness over menâand its replacement with sundry culturally unacceptable substitutes.
Chief among the missing males have been fathers: real, biological, spiritual, emotional, disciplinary fathers. Not “baby daddies,” to use the ghetto term that has percolated its way up and into the larger culture. Not transient sperm donors, who wouldn’t exist in the first place without trampy women to enable them. Not semi-functioning biological males embedded in the transgressive woke community who take an “X” for the team. But real men, who not only take responsibility for their children but impart responsibility to the next generation, especially to their sons …
… No, the problem isn’t “gun violence,” it’s the enforced emasculation of teenage American males via liberalism, feminism, academia, psychiatry, pharmacology, and the media, which all too often explodes in inchoate rage. Innate female impulses and values are critical to civilizational formation, but they are antithetical to civilizational preservation, prizing collectivism over individuality, shared instead of personal responsibility, and constant, generally irrational fears for physical and emotional safety. (“Safety” on line? Twitter can instantly “suspend” you permanently and Facebook can send you to Sugarmountain Prison on the spot for unspecified “harassment,” but the Uvalde shooter can yap on social media about his desire to assault a school and nothing happens to him, algorithmically speaking.) There has never been a successful matriarchy in Western history and there never will be. Neither sex would or should want it. And as for the 19th Amendment and its effect on American history, don’t get me started…
… [O]ur forefathers would have dubbed such behavior as “evil,” which is what the shootings in Texas and in Buffaloâand the weekly carnage in places like Chicagoâare. Please don’t “judge” him, said the Texas shooter’s mom, “he had his reasons.” No real man cares what his “reasons” were. Indeed, the sooner we get the shrinks out of the criminal justice system entirely, and replace them with morality, the more justice we’re going to get for criminals. Some people are just born to be bad and no amount of shrinking is going to help them; it only excuses them.
All of this reminds me of what C.S. Lewis wrote about relativism and “men without chests.”
In his book, The Abolition of Man, Lewis was prophetic in pointing out that relativismâthe idea that there are no absolute truthsâwould lead to the decay of morality and a lack of virtue within society. Without a belief in and the teaching of universal moral laws, we fail to educate the heart and are left with intelligent men who behave like animals or as Lewis puts it, âMen without Chests.â Read slowly to follow Lewisâs apologetic:
As the king governs by his executive, so Reason in man must rule the mere appetites by means of the âspirited elementâ. The head rules the belly through the chestâthe seat, as Alanus tells us, of Magnanimity, of emotions organized by trained habit into stable sentiments. The Chest-Magnanimity-Sentimentâthese are the indispensable liaison officers between cerebral man and visceral man.
It may even be said that it is by this middle element that man is man: for by his intellect he is mere spirit and by his appetite mere animal. The operation of The Green Book (a book promoting relativism) and its kind is to produce what may be called Men without Chests …
In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.
What he’s saying here is that we can’t criticize and destroy our moral foundations and then turn around and expect men and women of integrity, dignity and honor.
When you lose any sense of moral structure, here’s where it leads:

Not only does the assailant not have a “chest,” but neither do any of the men on the train. Instead of intervening on behalf of the terrified woman, who whimpers “help me,” they whip out their phones and … take videos of the assault.
That situation infuriates me. Not because I’m a hero, but because none of them were. It was so unjust, so repugnant, so offensive to civil society.
Evil is a human void. Itâs the egotistical emptiness that remains in the absence of good. To defeat it, we would have to conceive of good. We would have to retell the stories of the mass shootings, of crime in general, as a struggle between good and evil. Not all that long ago, we had a society capable of telling that story. These days we are more likely to celebrate evil.
The Left believes that government is god and it conceives of evil as disobedience to government. The gun control debate reduces evil to the NRA and anyone who wonât obey and hand over their guns. âDo you want more kids to die?â the gun controllers demand.
But good and evil donât come from a gun. Nor do they come from the government.
The reduction of individual choices to mechanical abstractions, shootings to guns, individual acts to society, is the mark of elites who want to rule the world, yet canât understand people.
Thereâs no formula more likely to convince people that their acts have no value, their lives no purpose, and that whatever they do doesnât matter in any larger sense. And so evil is born.
Here’s the truth: evil is a reality.
When tempted, no one should say, âGod is tempting me.â For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. (James 1:13-15)
There is evil in the world, and people are beginning to discover that truth. But as Christ-followers, we’ve known that truth for a long time, even as it’s gone out of fashion.
Daily Verse | Job 21:23-26 23 One person dies in full vigor, completely secure and at ease, 24 well nourished in body, bones rich with marrow. 25 Another dies in bitterness of soul, never having enjoyed anything good. 26 Side by side they lie in the dust, and worms cover them both.
Wednesday’s Reading: Job 22-24
Mid-week and the first day of June 2022. With the close of May, we’re one-third of the way through Resident Buffoon’s term. I wish it were next January already so that Republicans can begin legislating and passing laws designed to diminish the influence of the anti-American Democrats.
Maybe we could even get them banned as a political party.
I’ve shared some of Dr. Naomi Wolf’s writing before. (Also here and here.) She is a feminist, and if I may quote myself quoting her, Dr. Wolf is, by her own admission, “a member of ‘[t]he progressive, right-on part of the ideological world â my people, my tribe, my whole life.’ This is important to understand, because she is not writing from a conservative point of view, which makes her essay more honest (in my opinion) and more urgent.”
Ditto with what I share below.
In an essay titled, “Dear Friends, Sorry to Announce a Genocide,” and sub-titled “It’s Really True: They Know they are Killing the Babies,” Dr. Wolf provides evidence “that Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew by December 2020 that the MRNA vaccines did not work.”
The WarRoom/DailyClout Pfizer Documents Research Volunteers, a group of 3000 highly credentialled doctors, RNs, biostatisticians, medical fraud investigators, lab clinicians and research scientists, have been turning out report after report, as you may know, to tell the world what is in the 55,000 internal Pfizer documents which the FDA had asked a court to keep under wraps for 75 years. By court order, these documents were forcibly disclosed. And our experts are serving humanity by reading through these documents and explaining them in lay terms. You can find all of the Volunteersâ reports on DailyClout.io.
The lies revealed are stunning.
The WarRoom/DailyClout Volunteers have confirmed: that Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew by December 2020 that the MRNA vaccines did not work â that they âwaned in efficacyâ and presented âvaccine failure.â One side effect of getting vaccinated, as they knew by one month after the mass 2020 rollout, was âCOVID.â
Keep in mind that Pfizer and the FDA were forced to make these internal documents public. They wanted them sealed for 75 years â long enough for all the bad actors to enjoy life and die happy without facing the consequences of what appears to be a thoroughly evil decision.
Also keep in mind that one side effect of the vaccineâwhich was to prevent COVIDâwas getting COVID.
Here’s some of what Wolf and her team have found (I’m quoting at length):
Pfizer knew in May of 2021 that 35 minorsâ hearts had been damaged a week after MRNA injection â but the FDA rolled out the EUA for teens a month later anyway, and parents did not get a press release from the US government about heart harms til August of 2021, after thousands of teens were vaccinated.
Pfizer [and the FDA] knew that … the MRNA, spike protein and lipid nanoparticles did not stay in the injection site in the deltoid, but rather went … into the bloodstream, from there to lodge in the liver, spleen, adrenals, lymph nodes, and, if you are a woman, in the ovaries.
Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew that the Moderna vaccine had 100 mcg of MRNA, lipid nanoparticles and spike protein, which was more than three times the 30 mcg of the adult Pfizer dose; the companyâs internal documents show a higher rate of adverse events with the 100 mcg dose, so they stopped experimenting with that amount internally due to its âreactogenicityâ â Pfizerâs words â but no one told all of the millions of Americans who all got the first and second 100 mcg Moderna dose, and the boosters.
Pfizer skewed the trial subjects so that almost three quarters were female â a gender that is less prone to cardiac damage.
In the internal trials, there were over 42,000 adverse events and more than 1200 people died. Four of the people who died, died on the day they were injected.
I’m old enough to remember when we were all supposed to believe the science because shut up, they explained. Isn’t this all so science-y?
There’s more. Included in Dr. Wolf’s essay is a list of adverse events and side effects that were hidden by the CDC and FDA.
Joint pain and muscle pain (myalgia)
Neurological effects included Multiple-Sclerosis, Guillain Barre and Bellâs Palsy
Encephaly
Blood clotting
Thrombocytopenia at scale
Strokes
Hemorrhages
Ruptures of membranes
Blistering
Rashes
Shingles
Herpetic conditions
Red welts or hives
Violent fainting (think of college athletes collapsing on the field)
But this isn’t the worst of it and this, make no mistake about it, is fantastically evil.
It gets worse.
If Dr. Wolf is to be believed (and I’d take her word for it over anything the FDA or CDC has to say at this point), there is a genocide under way. This is how Dr. Wolf puts it:
Reproduction itself is targeted, intentionally or not, by the mRNA vaccines. And if you know that reproduction is harmed, and babies and fetuses are harmed, and you know that this is at scale, which everyone at Pfizer and at the FDA who read these documents, knew âand if you do not stop â then does that not ultimately become a genocide?
She then goes on to document how this is possible. In sum, the lipid nanoparticles in which the mRNA is delivered traverse the amniotic membrane, thus entering the fetal environment. Here’s the horror:
The Volunteers have drilled deep into the Pfizer documentsâ reports about pregnancy and found that the assurance that the vaccine is âsafe and effectiveâ for pregnant women, was based on a study of 44 French rats, followed for 42 days (the scientists who ran the study are shareholders or employees of BioNTech).
The Volunteers found that while pregnant women were excluded from the internal studies, and thus from the EUA on which basis all pregnant women were assured the vaccine was âsafe and effectiveâ, nonetheless about 270 women got pregnant during the study. More than 230 of them were lost somehow to history. But of the 36 pregnant women whose outcomes were followed –Â 28 lost their babies.
I personally have knowledge of five women who were all pregnant. All five were vaccinated, and all five suffered miscarriages.
And our superiors can’t understand why we don’t trust them.
She goes on to report the evidence that the vaccines contaminated mothers’ breast milk (including four mothers who “reported ‘blue-green’ breast milk”), resulting in babies who didn’t thrive. She writes, “Coincidentally, with little formula available and with some or many (we donât know) vaccinated moms having compromised breast milk, it turns out that Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, and Mark Zuckerberg have all invested in a startup called ‘BioMilq’ â which produces lab grown breast milk from mammary cells.”
Elsewhere, Wolf links to Israeli journalist Etana Hecht, who has offered her own astute analysis of what is being found: “Ms Hecht drew studies from three countries â Canada, Scotland and now Israel â to show that babies are dying disproportionately, during and after 2021, in highly vaccinated countries, and that newborns are dying disproportionately if they have vaccinated mothers versus unvaccinated mothers.”
After all that, Dr. Wolf transitions to what “we do with all this,” and it is strong medicine. I can’t reproduce it all here, nor do I want to. But it is worth your time to read, and I’ll conclude with just a snippet of what she declares, including her horror at what is happening and a retreat to prayer which, if you’ve followed her recently, is a new practice for her.
I am not saying that this is exactly like finding evidence of Dr Mengeleâs experiments; but I am saying, with these findings, that now the comparison may not be that excessive. These anti-humans at Pfizer, speaking at the WEF; these anti-humans at the FDA; knowing what they know; are targeting the miraculous female body, with its ability to conceive, gestate, birth and nurture life. They are targeting the female bodyâs ability to sustain a newborn human being with nothing but itself. They are targeting the amniotic membrane, the ovaries that release the ovum, they are targeting the lymph and blood that help support the building up of motherâs milk, they are targeting the fetus in utero, helpless.
They are targeting the human fetusâ very environment, one of the most sacred spaces on this earth, if not the most sacred.
And they know it.
And they know it.
These evil men and women in Big Pharma developed a “vaccine” that they knew would cause harm, claimed it was safe, produced millions of doses â and then tried to cover up their deed by keeping the documentation hidden for the next two or more generations. Every one of these people should be arrested, tried and convicted of knowingly causing great harm to the American people and be put away for the 75 years the FDA wanted the evidence suppressed.
It’s a monstrosity.
Dr. Wolf doesn’t get into incentives. What could possibly motivate Big Pharma to offer a vaccine that harms those who get it? It doesn’t take a genius to figure it out.
New figures from the Peoples Vaccine Alliance reveal that the companies behind two of the most successful COVID-19 vaccines âPfizer, BioNTech and Modernaâ are making combined profits of $65,000 every minute. The figures based on the latest company reports are released as CEOs from pharmaceutical industry meet for the annual STAT summit âthe equivalent of a âBig Pharma Davosââ from 16-18 November.
We live in evil times, and this is just the most recent unspeakable horror to emerge as evidence. I encourage you to read the whole thing from Naomi Wolf; the summary here doesn’t do it justice.
