According to many, this article is from a surprising source: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/po...oying-mask-diplomacy-u-s-communities-n1231031
The ignorance and stupidity of these people is embarrassing. And some of these people have college degrees.
Not so surprising, Joan since China's CCP owns a lot of our media: Can We Talk About American Media's Connections to Chinese Interests? https://townhall.com/columnists/lar...ias-connections-to-chinese-interests-n2566887 "Every single major broadcast and cable news outlet covering the COVID-19 pandemic has a direct and critical interest in pleasing the communist regime in China. Every single one of them. To understand this critically important connection between these American news outlets and the Chinese government, you only need to understand the power of the Chinese market when it comes to the film industry." [...] "Consider: - CBS News is part of a conglomerate of media and entertainment companies called National Amusements. The companies under their control include Viacom and Paramount Pictures. - NBC News/MSNBC is part of Universal and Comcast. - CNN is part of AT&T Time Warner, which owns Warner Brothers. - ABC News is owned by Disney, which owns, well, pretty much everything else coming out of Hollywood. Beyond the direct concerns of the film producing and distribution arms of these major corporations, they also have other direct interests in not ticking off the Beijing communists. These companies also own theme parks, cellular telephone networks, cable networks, movie theatres and much more. All of their movies and theme parks sell toys and clothing which are manufactured in China. Cell phones and infrastructure equipment are manufactured in China. Cable boxes and broadband devices are manufactured in China. Angering the Chinese government is just bad for business for these companies. "
Agreed. It's only a matter of time until the focus is put back on the Church again I believe. Seems to be the way it's going.
Another hell hole opened by SCOTUS and the opening to come after Christians, starting out w/bankrupting them w/ court cases. Carrie Severino: SCOTUS LGBT Decision Will ‘Create a Tsunami of New Litigation’ Against Religious Groups The Supreme Court’s (SCOTUS) reinterpretation of a federal prohibition against employment discrimination based on sex — which now includes sexual orientation and “gender identity” — will “create a tsunami of new litigation” against religious organizations, explained Carrie Severino, president of the Judicial Crisis Network, offering her remarks on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight with host Rebecca Mansour. The Supreme Court’s legal redefinition of “sex” to include sexual orientation and “gender identity” opens the door for further left-wing lawfare against religious organizations, Severino noted. Severino said, “The Supreme Court left a lot of really important issues open, like, how do you balance this with religious freedom? How do you balance it with freedom of speech? If you’ve got a law, for example, saying that using someone’s preferred pronoun is mandatory — or you can be fined [for non-compliance], how do we balance that with some of these other important and even constitutional questions? Those are things that, for the most part, are unfortunately going to be just decided by a whole range of lower courts. and it will be a long time before the Supreme Court even takes up the opportunity to weigh in on that.” Severino predicted, “These questions are going to create a tsunami of new litigation and create a huge amount of uncertainty going forward.” The Supreme Court’s decision to extend prohibitions against employment discrimination to include sexual orientation and “gender identity” will place religious and traditional organizations at a legal disadvantage when they are inevitably sued by left-wing outfits. “You’re going to see these decisions going overwhelmingly in favor of the litigants [and] the plaintiffs who are challenging any religious organization, or any school, or anyone who wants to maintain a traditional, biologically based, scientific-based understanding of sex,” Severino forecasted. “The logic that the court embraced” sets in motion a legal momentum for lower courts to render future decisions in favor of plaintiffs suing religious and traditional organizations for their personnel decisions, Severino anticipated. Mansour asked if religious organizations would surrender to left-wing activist groups filing lawsuits based on the Supreme Court’s decision given their insufficient resources to legally defend themselves. Severino replied, “That’s part of the strategy of the activists because they know that many of these organizations can’t afford to pay for defense. They can’t afford to risk a negative judgment where they could face crippling fines. If you’re talking about individuals, you’ve seen what’s happened with cases like the Masterpiece Cake Shop case, where someone’s entire business and livelihood could be destroyed and where they can face even personal threats and real concern over their own safety if they are willing to carry on litigation.” Severino added, “I think the intimidation factor of a lawsuit is huge, and when you’ve got the court almost inviting that, it’s going to present a real challenge for a lot of people. Practically speaking, for the most part, this isn’t even going to be an issue because I think there’s the vast majority of businesses don’t have any reason or desire to discriminate on either of these bases, but there are circumstances where it is either relevant to the job qualifications or where it’s going to be an issue of conscience, and those are the ones where you’re going to have people who are going to be forced to make those tough choices between violating their own conscience and possibly losing their livelihood.” MORE: https://www.breitbart.com/radio/202...decision-tsunami-litigation-religious-groups/
Well we are truly in it now. So much for the supreme court. Just was given a passage while in prayer in scripture this morning about God's wrath against unjust judges. I didnt connect it til I read this. Didnt Ralph Martin speak in the 1975 prophecy that "when you are stripped of everything..then you will have only Me." Seems like we are headed that way.
Well, this also explains what Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI said that the Catholic Church will shortly become very small. Pretty soon we will have to address everyone "Comerade" so as not to make the grievous error of calling someone by the wrong handle. Science is no more, it is whatever some judges say it is. Good is Evil, and Evil is Good.
A threat against Roman Catholicism in my area, relative to Juan de Onate (Spanish colonization). This happening 4 hours' drive north of me (if one is traveling 75 miles / 120 km per hour). https://www.krqe.com/news/albuquerque-metro/city-of-albuquerque-to-remove-statue-of-juan-de-onate/ Despite the distance, I noticed a larger Hispanic male presence at Mass yesterday morning. Both priests (White) also seemed tense. Well, if I get "clocked" while walking for the church door, I'll praise our Lord that I've taken a bruise for His sake. However, will likely not spill over much into this immediate (sleepy, rather disconnected) area. BTW - please say a prayer of protection for the owner of our Catholic gift and bookstore. She is early 60s and usually alone there.
Coming to a liberal city near you...."just a block party" From a Seattle police officer "Hey guys, I have a little down time so here is an update on things here. Absolute madness here. Can't even express it all. Day 12 for us and our Mayor and chief abandoned a major precinct and gave it to the anarchists. Unthinkable. 9 blocks of our city under the complete control of these terrorists. No joke. This is unreal. No police, no fire dept, no sanity allowed in. They have an armed force patrolling, manning checkpoints and stopping cars and citizens at gun point. They are creating a currency, an ID system, a supply system that includes food, water, ammo and chemical weapons. They have access to the precinct and have made it their hq. Our "leaders" are completely silent and the city council is completely complicit. Yes, they have been on the front lines WITH the anarchists and yes, last night one council member let about 200 into city hall. The warlord in charge of the new "capitol hill autonomous zone" (CHAZ) drives a tesla and has been arrested for drugs, guns, pimping and crimes against children and is on a federal child porn watch list. He carries an AK-47 and has already started abusing people inside. WTF? You can't make this up. We have been castrated. There is no recovering from this. We can't go near the zone and have been warned by our dept to stay away. We are only working for each other now. We have been in battles where these psychopaths have hit us with rocks, cinderblocks, homemade napalm, and even IEDs. Multiple injuries and THEN we gave up the precinct. Now the guns are out. This city can burn. I'm working on my exit plan now. The city and state hates us and gives us no support, in fact the leaders are actively supporting this very real insurgency. Yet, all you hear in the media is that they are merely peaceful protesters. This is real. There is a part of our country that is no longer under our control. People need to know. This is not about race. It's about control. Share it, but DON'T say my name."
Yes. It seems that in some cities these days the police are being used not to protect the citizen but instead to protect the communists from the tax payer. Seattle and Portland seem to be on the same trajectory this way. Capitulation will gut these police forces eventually. I mean what officer wants to risk being charged with murder such as the two officers involved in the shooting in Atlanta over a case of self defense?
