Is Europe making itself ripe for that Commie invasion?: "When Communism Comes Again": Farage: Brussels ‘Bully Boys’ Will Build a Bigger EU ‘With No Dissent Allowed’ Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has warned that “bully boys” like the next European Commission president will construct a more federalised European Union. “The EU bully boys (and girls) are not pretending anymore,” Mr Farage wrote in The Telegraph on Friday. “A deeper and more centralised political union is to be built, with no dissent allowed.” Remarking on Ursula von der Leyen’s recent confirmation as President of the European Commission by the European Parliament — where the former German defence minister was the only candidate on the ballot — Mr Farage called her a “fanatical federalist” whose appointment was “the result of a Franco-German stitch-up“. “Von der Leyen has an incredibly ambitious programme for her five-year term. In 20 years of sitting in the Strasbourg chamber, I have never heard a speech like the one she gave this week, in which she set out an overt bid for the EU to take control of all kinds of arrangements inside individual nation-states, from an EU minimum wage to the harmonisation of corporation tax,” Mr Farage wrote. “In terms of foreign policy, member states’ vetos must be removed so that a new European army can be deployed with a minimum of fuss. All aspects of the Union will be backed up by the rule of law, presided over by EU prosecutors,” he added, calling what the “EU fanatic” was planning an “updated form of Communism”. During her speech on Tuesday, Mrs von der Leyen called for a “Green New Deal for Europe” which would force the bloc to cut carbon emissions drastically by 55 per cent by 2030, demanded “an EU-wide Rule of Law Mechanism” to punish countries deemed to have betrayed progressive European “values”, and hinted at greater strengthening of the “European Defence Union”, a proto-EU army. However, Mr Farage assessed that the next president of the EU’s most powerful office could been a boon for Boris Johnson’s premiership, calling the German the “pin-up girl” for “any future Brexit campaign”. He said: “In fact, by the end of her speech, I felt that Brexit was a little closer to being realised. Her vow to “stand ready” to delay Brexit tells us all we need to know.” Henry Smith MP ✔@HenrySmithUKThe likely next European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, has said: “My goal is the United States of Europe – based on the model of the federal states of Switzerland, Germany or the US". Remaining in the EU is not status quo but a common tax, military and much more. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/20...ully-boys-build-bigger-eu-no-dissent-allowed/

Prayers for Tommy: Tommy Robinson Transferred to UK Prison Known as a “Jihadist Training Camp” As reported last week by Cassandra Fairbanks… UK activist Tommy Robinson was sentenced to six months in prison last week for three counts of contempt of court. He was sent back to prison immediately following the conclusion of the hearing. The sentence is highly unusual as contempt of court cases almost always lead to a non-custodial sentence — especially for journalists. Typically, a media outlet or journalist would face a slap on the wrist or light fine. Yet, one of the judges in the case, Dame Victoria Sharp, said that “nothing less than a custodial penalty would reflect the gravity” of the situation. The judge admitted that they specifically wanted to make an example of Robinson. YouTube then removed video of Tommy Robinson from Cassandra Fairbanks’ channel. Tommy was begging the Trump administration to save him from his dangerous ordeal. Tommy Robinson is an outspoken critic of Muslim child rape gangs in Great Britain. For this he is under constant threat of violence from the Muslim community. Breitbart.com reported this week that Tommy Robinson was reportedly transferred to the Belmarsh prison. The maximum security facility in south London was once described as a “jihadi training camp.” The UK government wants Tommy Robinson dead. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...-uk-prison-known-as-a-jihadist-training-camp/

Beth, You're welcome. Here is another one. Updated July 20, 2019 at 5:47 PM Severe storms cut power to 365,000 amid sweltering heat By Chaffin Mitchell and Kristina Pydynowski, Accuweather.com & Adriana Navarro | https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/201...to-365000-amid-sweltering-heat/8771563635741/ July 20 (UPI) -- Following the derecho that produced hurricane-force wind gusts in South Dakota and southern Minnesota on Saturday morning, new incidents of damaging winds and flooding are developing across the midwestern United States. A line of severe thunderstorms produced a continuous path of wind damage and gusts over 60 mph from South Dakota and eastward along the border of Iowa and Minnesota from the early morning to the midday hours of Saturday. More than 365,000 power outages were reported by poweroutage.us in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan as a result of the severe weather from Friday night into Saturday. RELATED Last month was hottest June on record, scientists say "That meets the definition of a derecho," stated AccWeather Senior Meteorologist Kristina Pydynowski. "The derecho and other severe thunderstorms erupting over the Midwest on Saturday are being fueled by the sweltering heat and humidity surging over a large part of the nation." Hurricane force wind gusts of 75 mph were reported at both Brookings, South Dakota and Windom, Minnesota. The strong winds have downed trees. "Damaging thunderstorms were not just confined to the derecho on Saturday," Pydynowski said. "Another cluster of severe weather led to funnel clouds being seen southwest of Green Bay, Wisconsin, as heavy rain has been repeating over the same areas in northwestern Michigan. There have been radar rainfall estimates of a foot in that region." RELATED OZY Fest canceled due to NYC heatwave On Saturday morning, fast-moving floodwaters washed away a bridge that acted as the only access to about 30 houses in Kinsman, Ohio, according to WKBN. Video taken by the Kinsman Police Department shows live power lines in lying in the rushing water that runs through the area where the bridge once was, possibly downed by strong winds from the earlier storm. Radar indicates there was rainfall of 4 to 7 inches in northern Trumbull County early Saturday morning. According to WKBN, the dam at Kinsman Lake overtopped, the water sloshing over the edge as the rain inundated the area. Kinsman Trustee Greg Leonhard told the news station that there are about 30 houses near the lake that are accessible only by the bridge. RELATED Ex-Giants Super Bowl champ Mitch Petrus, 32, dies of heat stroke Water rescues were being performed Saturday afternoon as flooding persisted. "The risk for severe thunderstorms and flooding downpours will continue to shift to the south and east through Monday as relief from the heat wave gradually arrives," Pydynowski said. 1:30 p.m. CDT Saturday: The town of Irons, Michigan, has been one of the areas hardest hit by flooding with water entering some buildings. There are radar estimates of a foot of rain since Friday night in the area. Wind damage has also been reported across sections of Minnesota. 12 p.m. CDT Saturday: More than 122,000 customers are without power in Wisconsin, and more than 200,000 customers without power in Michigan, according to poweroutage.us. The Green Bay-Austin Straubel Airport reported wind gusts of 58 mph. With trees down on SB I-39 between Wausau and Stevens Point, traffic is at a standstill. 11:45 a.m. CDT Saturday: A radar-confirmed tornado continues to track toward Green Bay, Wisconsin. Residents should seek shelter now. 11:19 a.m. CDT Saturday: A radar-confirmed tornado is tracking southwest of Green Bay. There have been been funnel clouds sighted near Greenville and Weyauwega, Wisconsin. 11: a.m. CDT Saturday: Radar estimates indicate that nearly 10 inches of rain has inundated the area east of Fountain, Michigan, in the northwestern part of the state. 10 a.m. CDT Saturday: Roughly 20,000 customers were without power in Minnesota with the majority of the outages in southern parts of the state. In Neillsville, Wisconsin, there was a report of a semi truck blown off of Highway 10. 8 a.m. CDT Saturday: In the northwestern part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, a total of 6 inches of rain has poured down near Iron, Minnesota. 7:36 a.m. CDT Saturday: A wind gust of 65 mph was reported at Brookings, South Dakota. _ Heavy Damage After Midwest Storms Sweep Through 500 Miles In 10 Hours https://www.clickondetroit.com/news...st-storms-sweep-through-500-miles-in-10-hours *** And a few more...

She was Madalyn Murray from Baltimore, I think I remember that about her. Before her court case, we said the Lord’s Prayer every morning in public school. Some school systems even had Bible readings in the morning. I was in about the 8th grade when it stopped. One of her sons became a Christian and wrote a truthful book about her life and hatred of God. I would read it again. What a sick soul she was.
Beth, Yes, I think so. There are always earthquakes, volcanoes erupting, hurricanes and typhoons etc. in the world but there has been some very strange weather lately in a lot of places in the world. I watch One America News and they covered quite a few of the stories that I posted above but if you don't have that station available the following website follows these natural disasters and you might be interested in taking a look at it occasionally https://watchers.news/2019/07/18/st...-aviation-color-code-raised-to-orange-alaska/ The tab on the right side of the screen is extremely helpful. *** The following man-made disaster occurred on Friday. Death toll rises to 15 in Chinese gas plant explosion By The Associated Press | BEIJING — Jul 20, 2019, 10:59 PM ET | https://abcnews.go.com/Internationa...rises-15-chinese-gas-plant-explosion-64464955 The Associated Press An aerial view shows the aftermath of the blast at a gas plant in Yima city in central China's Henan province Saturday, July 20, 2019. The Friday evening explosion shattered windows 3 kilometers (1.9 miles) away, and knocked off doors inside buildings, killing some and injuring others. (Chinatopix via AP) Authorities in central China said Sunday the death toll in a gas plant explosion has risen to 15 with another 15 seriously injured. Three people who were previously missing have been found dead, said local authorities. About 270 firefighters and rescue workers have completed three rounds of search and rescue since the Friday evening explosion in Yima city in Henan province, China's Ministry of Emergency Management said. The blast shattered windows 3 kilometers (2 miles) away and knocked off doors inside buildings, Chinese state media reports said. The official Xinhua news agency says the explosion occurred in the air separation unit of the Yima gas factory of the Henan Coal Gas (Group) Co., Ltd. It said that all production had stopped. China experiences frequent industrial accidents despite orders from the central government to improve safety at factories, power plants and mines. More than 60 people died in March in a chemical plant explosion in eastern Jiangsu province. Among the worst accidents was a massive 2015 explosion at a chemical warehouse in the port city of Tianjin that killed 173 people, most of them firefighters and police officers. That blast was blamed on illegal construction and unsafe storage of volatile materials. *** Edited to add: Eight injured, 1,000 firefighters mobilized as fires rage in central Portugal 7/21/2019 5:22:26 AM | https://menafn.com/1098782750/Eight...s-mobilized-as-fires-rage-in-central-Portugal (MENAFN - Trend News Agency) Eight people including a civilian have been injured in three separate fires raging across central Portugal, with about 1,000 firefighters mobilized, Trend reports citing Xinhua. The fires, which started on Saturday in the district of Castelo Branco, caused severe burns to a civilian while injuring seven firefighters, reports said. Authorities evacuated dozens of people from a village as a precaution. The country's National Authority for Civil Protection said they believe the fires would be controlled on Sunday morning. The fires broke out after the authorities issued on Friday a three-day fire warning due to forecasted hot, dry and sporadic windy weather over the coming weekend throughout the country. Since March, some regions have seen frequent erratically high temperatures and windy weather, resulting in wildfires that occurred far earlier in the season than usual. The situation is not confined to Portugal. According to a research of the European Commission' Joint Research Center, wildfires in the first quarter of 2019 have burned more land in Europe than in the entire year of 2018. [Emphasis added.]
I am lying in front of the fan right now in an old house with no AC. So hot at 2:30 in the AM so I hear ya. It reminds me of summers being a child in Michigan. Night after hot night and no fans but that's just how it was. You endured. As an 'old" person I find it much harder now.
Omg...yes! As children we knew of nothing else. The best we could do was sleep near a bedroom window with a screen in it. Six kids in one bedroom with three twin beds. We had nothing to speak of, but life was better then...even with no central air. Life was simple then. Today we own more stuff....but in reality, it actually owns us. All of this might be coming to an end....
Neil Armstrong's Most Significant Steps Weren't On the Moon Fifty years ago this week, Neil Armstrong uttered what remains one of the most iconic statements relevant to all of humanity except for the Bible. “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Who knew that decades later, Armstrong would do something even more significant than being the first man on the moon, and that it would be biblically rooted? Armstrong’s first moon walk and inspirational statement acknowledged the incredible individual achievement of being the first person to step on the surface of the moon, but it was also the product of a great team effort. Armstrong embodied a particularly American value of going beyond what seems to be physically possible. As one of the early astronauts, he also overcame unique personal physical endurance challenges. History has recorded the achievements leading up to and including his first step on the moon as the sum of many individuals’ dedication, including in recent acclaimed films such as Apollo 11, First Man, and Hidden Figures. The emphasis on his own single step focuses the imagination on an individual’s ability, and is a metaphor about achieving many things, one step at a time. It still provides a vision for anyone setting out to achieve an extraordinary goal. This can be the case with human achievement, as well as overcoming personal challenges. Armstrong was a model for both, something underscored and facilitated by his faith. At the most basic level, Armstrong put his faith, and fate, in God’s hands. Space travel was not unique when he took off in July 1969, but at that point nobody had landed or walked on the moon. Any number of things could have gone wrong, and Armstrong would have been remembered differently. But he had faith, in God, and in the God given abilities of the vast team that made his personal achievement possible. Armstrong also overcame personal challenges, including the death of his young daughter. But his faith remained strong. More than two decades after his first moon walk, Armstrong visited Israel where he didn’t chart a new path, but followed an old one. Because of his faith, this was something that he acknowledged as being even more significant than his 1969 moon walk. When Armstrong visited Israel in 1994 he was brought to a place in the Old City of Jerusalem and asked Meir Ben-Dov, his host and noted archeologist, if Jesus himself actually would have walked there. “I told him, ‘Look, Jesus was a Jew,'” recalled Ben-Dov. “These are the steps that lead to the Temple, so he must have walked here many times.” Armstrong asked if these were the original steps, and Ben-Dov said that they were. “So Jesus stepped right here?” asked Armstrong. “That’s right,” answered Ben-Dov. “I have to tell you,” Armstrong said to the Israeli archaeologist, “I am more excited stepping on these stones than I was stepping on the moon.” Indeed, we know that for a Christian, visiting Israel is a life-changing and faith building experience. This is played out in numerous ways including visits to the Old City and specifically the Temple Mount where Jesus preached and worshipped, along with where he was crucified, to the Jordan River where he was baptized, and of course the Galilee, and Nazareth, his hometown. The footsteps that Armstrong followed in Jerusalem 25 years after his moonwalk were not unique. Millions of Jews ascended to worship in the Temple on these very steps, including Jesus. And millions of pilgrims have traced these steps in a literal faith walk. But Armstrong had the presence of mind, and faith, to realize this significance, to walk in Jesus’ footsteps, literally, was more significant than walking on the moon He made no iconic public statement walking in Jesus’ footsteps. He didn’t need to. A pilgrimage like that is between the individual and God. As much as there are countless affirmations of Christians visiting Israel and having divine experiences, Neil Armstrong’s comments and frame of reference considering that he was the first man to step on the moon uniquely affirms this reality. Ask any Christian who has been to Israel and at least nine out of 10 times you’ll hear a similar affirmation, and the desire to visit Israel again. And again. The comparison of Armstrong’s single step as a challenge to move forward in any goal could not be more appropriate than depicted in the opportunity of Run for Zion. Run for Zion brings Christians to participate in a unique running and walking pilgrimage throughout Jerusalem, literally standing alongside tens of thousands of Israelis, passing through the ancient city that King David established as his throne, and in which and from which Jews and Christians have continued to exalt God for thousands of years. https://townhall.com/columnists/jon...significant-steps-werent-on-the-moon-n2549967
I found as a kid, in the upper room of an old rectory house my parents bought, I could sprinkle a little water on my bed sheet it would cool me down enough to get to sleep. A fan we did not have. And to think the 3rd purification will be by heat and fire!
Oh Fatima...God have mercy on us! “And to think the 3rd purification will be by heat and fire”! Im a poor sufferer! Yikes....
I just want to clarify that Buzz Aldrin did not take communion in the Catholic sense. He was/is a presbyterian and as noted in the words of the article, they do not say the word 'Jesus.' It should also be noted that besides calling himself as 'Christian,' Buzz Aldrin was/is a freemason http://freemasoninformation.com/masonic-education/famous/masonic-astronauts/
Thank you for this post...I have a new found respect for Neil Armstrong now! What a beautiful public tribute to the Creator of heaven and earth....and the moon!
Yes Beth, but we have the refuge that God has provided under our Lady's mantle. The suffering will not touch us as gravely as those who live in and by the world standards. Our Lady of Fatima told us where to find refuge. We must not fear anything coming. The purification will be horrible for those living by the ways of the world. Fear means we have little trust. Whether we live or die should not concern us. We must work out our salvation and lead as many as we can, when the time comes, along with us, keeping our eyes focused on the kingdom or the era of peace.
I don't know how we endured the heat back in the day. No AC in the cars either. I recall long road trips when we would get stuck in traffic, and my dad would have to turn on the heat to cool the engine so the radiator wouldn't boil over. We were 90 degrees at 7pm tonight. In my corner of Massachusetts near the ocean, this is very, very unusual. We do not have central AC, but we do have window units along with a collection of random fans blowing hot air around; my kitchen has been an inferno for the past couple of days. Needless to say, our electric meter is spinning as fast as the fans. As a child I remember feeling sorry for the nuns who must have suffered on hot days wearing those heavy habits, and they never once complained. I wish I were better at suffering.
