Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us...we deserve all this. If it is true, as St. John Eudes says, that people get the priests they deserve, then surely the same applies to a nation getting the political leaders they deserve.



Untruths & Consequences

To any sane person, it appears our elites and their media sycophants are engaging in an unprecedented preposterous statement tournament. 

They must get up every day, snicker once or twice, and try to think of the most ridiculous, least verifiable piece of ludicrous prevarication they can attempt to pass off as truth.

And why shouldn't they?  A significant percentage of Americans seem willing to believe anything at all.

So President Biden says there are no Americans trapped in Kabul.  All right, now tell us the one about the three bears.  His press secretary, Jen Psaki, says we need to get the military out of Afghanistan first, so we don't risk anyone getting hurt.  Yes, forget about the thousands of American civilians trapped in Kabul.  Ignore the pictures of mothers throwing their babies over fences.  Um, Jen, we send our troops to places specifically to confront danger and instability...and often to fight the bad guys.  That's why, unlike civilians, they are armed to the teeth and wear body armor.  That's why they have attack helicopters, A-10 Warthogs, missiles, rocket launchers, grenades, and submachine guns.  Or used to, before the Biden administration decided to donate them to the Taliban.  But we are told we can trust the Taliban, that its members are turning over a new leaf.  (Perhaps moving from the 8th century to the 9th century?)

We are told the vaccines work wonderfully and are totally safe.  And then told we need to start wearing masks again.  And that hospitals are filling up again.  And that we need a "booster" shot.  We are virtually assured the coronavirus didn't come from a laboratory in Wuhan.  Until we were told that it might very well have come from a laboratory in Wuhan.  But, Biden says, the Chinese are Hunter's our friends., and Iran, too, poses no serious threat.

Then the Los Angeles Times trots out a headline averring: "Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy.  You've been warned."  Gee, Times, thanks for the tip.  Does it make sense, though, that a Black man is the spokesperson for white supremacy?  Apparently, this is not your grandfather's White supremacy movement.  (Were there many Black Imperial Wizards in the Ku Klux Klan?)  I mean, did the rank and file not notice that their precious White supremacy organization was filling up with Black folks?  If they did and didn't care, and if they like Larry Elder, they really aren't particularly racist, are they?  Have they just not been paying attention, or have they gone soft?  Or maybe there isn't that big of a problem here, and everyone can just settle down and go home.   

What can be said with certainty is that "The Los Angeles Times is the face of media idiocy."

It has been said over the decades that Americans have lost their innocence, that we are terribly jaded and cynical.  The past few years have proved that this, too, is incorrect.  A disheartening number of Americans have bought the lies of the government and media that despise them:
  • "Trump colluded with Russia!"
  • "The 2020 election was the fairest of them all."
  • "Kamala Harris will be a great vice president."
  • "Hunter is the smartest guy I know."   
  • "It's all Trump's fault."

The United States was founded on a healthy — and historically deeply warranted — distrust of government. 

Today, the only thing many Americans are skeptical about is the truth.

Past this point, no free republic, indeed no viable society, can long continue.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
