Sign of The End? Dr Mercola has been threatened and is deleting his entire article hoard...

Friends,

Some Ominous News
Dr. Joseph Mercola is a household name to anyone who has questioned the Covid "narrative" or the "Big Med" "Big Pharma" spiel about how we need their meds to survive all the wild dangers of our native biodome. (Moderna is now saying a "booster shot" will be necessary this before winter.) Over many years, Mercola has built up a reputation – and a host of articles – that garner him a great deal of respect, at least outside "the usual suspects" promoting Covid, Lockdowns, and draconian curtailment of civil rights.

But now he's been signaled out by The Zombie Joe Xiden, and Bill Gates as well, and so on, it appears, and therefore he's deleting his entire hoarded store of natural medicine articles. All his Covid articles, the whole shebang. Is this a publicity stunt? Or is Mercola truly terrified?

An extract from his site:

Just to be clear, ALL my content will be removed. This includes articles on:

  • Great Reset
  • General nutrition
  • The coronavirus
  • My interviews with experts

These will be removed to appease the individuals in power who have an arsenal of overwhelming tools at their disposal, and are actively engaged in using them. COVID-19 has activated and authorized emergency powers that have weakened our constitutional rights. Sadly, cyberwarfare and authoritarian forces are beyond our abilities to withstand, and this is now our only way forward.

Over 15,000 articles full of vital information that has helped tens of millions across the world take control of their health, will be removed. There was a time when people could debate and respect each other freely. That time is now gone. I believe laws are best applied like medicine – locally and specifically.

An P again:
"Cyberwarfare and authoritarian forces are beyond our abilities to withstand."

This is pretty amazing. Be on the watch for others who have spoken out against the hoax, and if they "disappear", your turn will be next. "They" have certainly come for Texas Dr. Peter McCullough. 

As for Mercola, he says he'll continue for now to post articles but then delete them after 48 hours in an attempt to protect himself. Why that would protect him if "they" are truly after him, I dunno. But beware.

Push Finally Coming to Shove?
We may be entering very dark times, as in full police state lockdown on Australia's model, full police-state seizure of the Internet and other communication services, and everyone in ignorance and despair till they stab that damn "jab" in your arm. (They are almost gibbering in incoherent Lovecraftian madness to get shot in your arm. So, just what IS in it? Hmmm?) What's going on in Australia is pure Orwellian 1984 freak-show insanity. One (just the one) Australian senator is speaking out against it, his name is Malcolm Roberts, and you can listen to him here at Citizenfreepress. 

U.S. Senator Rand Paul has himself laid down the law. Senator Paul is actually calling for mass civil disobedience and push-back against the Biden regime and the Covid dictatorship in general. Again, pretty amazing.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis also seems to be getting ready for a full, head-on fight with Biden. (Governor DeSantis allowed the SSPX to say open during the lockdown, remember). The Biden Regime seems to be coming for DeSantis.

Look, my friends, you may think this is all hyperbole, and maybe it is. One thing is certain: time will tell. But I've seen enough the past couple of years to expect anything to happen now, absolutely anything. And so the warning, strictures, and advice of this guy, need to be taken seriously.

We have a fraudulently elected "president" and a fraudulent imprisonment of Capitol Hill protestors (esp compared to Antifa and BLM actual rioters being let off). We have a "government" crashing our economy. 
And a "pResident" boasting about how he's going directly against the Constitution, as reported here at The Conservative Treehouse.

We have ever-mounting evidence that the entire Covid "scamdemic" was just that, including U.S. patents filed over a decade ago proving they had itdeveloped then. And certain individuals are collecting evidence that will crash not only that "narrative" but EVERYONE's faith in the entire medical system. See LifeSiteNews for details here. 

Now, as I say, maybe paranoia has seized control of Western Civilization, and maybe I, an old Lovecraft hand, has seen Azathoth one too many times, so that I'll believe any crazy thing. Maybe so.

Or perhaps we ought to "read the signs of the times" for it looks like (continuing the Biblical metaphors) the "handwriting is on the wall".

Get ready for anything.

Myself, I think the actions of Bergoglio, cancelling the Traditional Latin Mass (trying to, beginning it, certainly) right at this time is a "sign of the times" indeed, more like a bright flare launched right before our faces.

Pray. If you don't pray, learn. Catholics need to go to the TLM and if your bishop is preventing you, pay him a visit. Bergoglio's Crew has said "No!" to religious exemptions for the vaccine. Tell 'em exactly what you think of them. Now is the time to get their attention.

Of course, once again, maybe nothing will happen. Maybe we just teeter on the totter to where everywhere is San Francisco. 

Or on the other hand, suddenly it all goes black and our slavery is complete, unless, perhaps, just maybe it comes down to some colonel or major in tank somewhere who saves the day, like Major Yevdokimov did in Moscow back in 1991.

Germany's Bild newspaper apologizes to Germans, and other tidbits

 Friends, A Chairde,

And interesting bit of new here about Bild. Bild is Germany’s largest newspaper, and it apologizes for Covid hysteria, especially involving children. This is pretty shocking therefore but then, remember Newtonian physics: for every action, there's an opposite and equal reaction. That huge Berlin protest wherein the German police went crazy and beat up women and children last weekend (I sent around a video link) was just apparently one bridge too far for Bild. I wondered how Germans would react. People everywhere, in Germany too, are desperately, desperately, desperately tired of Covid, and are now being told (in the U.S. by Biden's CDC director) that the virus has mutated so far that the "vaccines" no longer work on it.

So canine-like police beating on their own desperate "Sheeple" people protesting this garbage is, shall we say, not conducive to sweetness, light, and a happy population.

Then again, maybe Bild's apology wasn't inspired by that. In any event, take a moment to watch the video at the link. French and English subtitles run, so you can follow it.

All this hoopla from the Biden Regime about forcing all federal employees to be injected with one of the "vaccines" might be in the same sort of category, in a mirror reverse image. Why? It's come out, as I've reported, that a whistleblower in the CMS has sworn an affidavit that she's seen 45,000 Americans have died of Covid injections, and that will be out in a lawsuit soon.

Mike Adams and Tom Renz talk about this (and a WHOLE lot more) at this link. Renz thinks that because of the whistleblower news, the Biden Regime floated all this forced vaccination madness because of the whistleblower's 45,000 deaths report did get past some of the censors. As this news, and other news like it, escape the U.S. government censors, people will no longer want "the jab". So the Jabbers' window of opportunity is closing.

Renz predicted that the Regime will begin to back off their heavy-handed insanity this week, as people begin to react angrily to being FORCED to be "vaccinated". We'll see. But both agree that however the government, federal or state, do it, they'll try their damnest to "lockdown" the country again. However, the more they try to force "vaccination" for an illness that kills less than 99.8 percent of the population claimed to be infected with it, the angrier people will get.

Renz also had the interesting observation that his sources tell him that only about 30 percent of so of the U.S. population has gotten the "jab". I've seen report in other places that it is much lower than officially admitted.

Interestingly, they discuss a host of other Covid issues, especially why U.S. doctors go along with this putrid mess. Apparently, "Obamacare" essentially wiped out private medical practitioners in the U.S., in the sense that most doctors work for a "Big Med" conglomerate/hospital, and have to do what they're told or be fired/ostracized. (Correct me, anyone, if I'm wrong.) I do know that doctor's are not free to prescribe what they think you need, but only what the "Standard of Care" allows. And that "Standard" is not set by doctors or patients, but "Big Med", Big Pharma, and of course the Insurance companies.

Everyone I review is predicting strict lockdowns and mask-wearing will be implemented soon in most of the U.S. That probably won't work in the Red States, but it will occur in the Blue ones. For myself, I was happy to see Hungary is not going the lockdown route – if I read the news correctly – and instead, Sweden-like, it will go for the "herd immunity" gambit. Sweden, BTW, is doing great, at least in regard to Covid. Sweden is the rape capital of the world right now, with horrible crime rates galore, what with all the foreigners the government has let in. But in terms of Covid, they've restrained the worst extremes throughout the "scamdemic" and currently have very little in the way of Covid.

Of course, as long as anyone uses the worthless PCR tests, Covid will be found, even when it doesn't exist. (That, too, is discussed by Adams and Renz. Adams had experience with the PCR before Covid came along.) Singapore has abandoned this test, and even the CDC say it will be phased out in the U.S., as I've reported elsewhere.

For further info, Renz has a website here. Currently featured is Lifesite News' "Stop the Shot" online conference. Check it out and inform yourselves.

Let's pray the Bild apology is the beginning of the end of the craziness.

Over 4200 MIS-C cases (40 deaths), Myocarditis, Remdesivir, and other Horrors

 Amici,

Remember that years ago the Swine Flu had a "vaccine" and it killed 53 people; it was taken off the market. The VAERS (the CDC's adverse vaccine reporting board) reporting system in the U.S. currently has over 12,000 as reported dying from the Covid "vaccines", and a government whistleblower from the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services says it is really around 45,000 (this is part of a formally filed lawsuit asking the Courts to immediately stop the vaccination program in the U.S.). I provide this as just some perspective for the new information listed below.

The News Gets Ever Worse
Ever more and more horrors of the "Vaccine Imperium" are reported here to Reiner Fuellmich's legal team. Reiner and his team interview Dr Bryan Ardis, who has over the past decade or so come to be known as one of the most successful nutrition, natural medicine, and alternative healing doctors in the U.S. Originally a Chiropractic doctor from 2004, Ardis completed his certification in Acupuncture at the Dallas College of Oriental Medicine. Ardis has also been "whistleblowing" Covid and its various treatments for going on two years now.
N.B. So, if you're going to discount Ardis or anyone else who is not a regular physician (MD), remember Dr. Jennifer Daniels and Dr. Carrie Madej were both run out of the regular medical profession. If an MD does not prescribe the drugs the "Standard of Care" orders him to, for any specific illness, then you or any doctor can lose his license to practice medicine. (If you prescribe a "Standard of Care" drug and the patient reacts badly, it is better for you to let the patient die from the drug rather than discontinue it, for although you can be sued for malpractice for any reason, you cannot be convicted if you prescribe what the "Standard of Care" orders you to!)

For example, I always praise Hydrangea root as a miracle drug for curing kidney stone problems. But a regular MD cannot prescribe Hydrangea root, though it works miracles. He'd be "outted" and lose his license forthwith.

Being a Chiropractor, Ardis was never in that hellish mix to begin with.

Revelations Shocking and Sickening
Fuellmich and Ardis discuss a number of Covid issues, particularly the rise of a completely new disease/condition called MIS-C, "Multisystem-Inflammatory Syndrome in Children", which appeared in kids under 12 only as the Covid "vaccines" began to be administered to them. It is clearly a product of the "vaccines" and it has killed a good number of kids, but of course the Medical Establishment officially remains clueless, at 4,200 cases and 40 deaths, and counting.

They also discuss the "shedding" of the "spike protein" is a very serious problem, with vaccinated people shedding the spike protein to their children or people living with the vaccinated. Forget "catching" Covid from the "unvaccinated"; the "vaccinated" have more than enough to share. BTW, I see South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, double-vaccinated, all that, has now tested positive for Covid and is experience "flu-like" symptoms.

Also Myocarditis is surging insanely among high school kids who have been given the "vaccines". "Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle (myocardium), affecting your heart muscle and the heart's electrical system, reducing your heart's ability to pump blood and causing rapid or abnormal heart rhythms, known as arrhythmia." (I actually know people who have developed this condition after "vaccination", but they refuse to consider the possibility that it was the "vaccine" that gave them the condition!)

Bryan Ardis stresses than a CDC lecture from 22 October 2020, which involved a slide show presentation, showed on one slide (slide 16) a list of all the dangerous side-effects of the "vaccines", and Myocarditis was first on the list! But although this and other records exist showing the CDC and the FDA knew all about the side-effects two months BEFORE the first "vaccines" were administered to the public, these medical authorities let the "vaccines" be administered anyway.

Ardis also stresses how the "vaccines" will make unborn girl babies sterile. Yes, the "vaccines" have cause of huge number of miscarriages. But Ardis has a new take on it. He lists various toxins officially listed in the Pfizer, Moderna, and other "vaccines" composition. He says these are known to prevent developing embryonic female babies from growing eggs, for embryonic female babies grow all the eggs they'll ever have at a certain point in their development in the womb. This is titanic news and every woman in the world needs to know this. If these girl babies survive to birth and don't develop any of the multifold illnesses the "vaccines" are supposed to cause, Ardis they'll find they are incapable of getting pregnant.

Remdesivir: a Horrific Scandal in the Annals of Medicine
Regarding Remdesivir, so you all remember Anthony Fauci pushing Remdesivir at Trump Covid news conferences? Fauci disparaged Hydroxychloroquine, etc., and promoted Remdesivir.

Actually, from January to October 2020, Ardlis reports that Remdesivir was the ONLY approved medication Fauci would approve for Covid patients. The. Only. One.

Ardis discusses Remdesivir at some length, how Fauci tried to use it for Ebola before the Covid outbreak, and talked up a couple of studies on Remdesivir related to Covid. The second of these studies was by the maker of Remdesivir, Gilead. Reported on only 28 days after the study completed, the report revealed that 22 percent of the 53 patients serving as test subjects (there was NO control group!) experienced four lethal side effects: multiple organ failure, acute kidney failure, septic shock, and hypertension (i.e. high blood pressure). Eight percent had to be taken off the test, so the total would be 30 percent.

Early on in the Covid epidemic, the CDC's website referred people looking for the officially approved government treatment protocols to the NIH website (Fauci's fiefdom). Fauci at this NIH site was declaring that only ONE drug existed that was officially mandated for treating Covid, and it was Remdesivir. So Bryan Ardis went to the FDA website to read up on Remdesivir, and found, shockingly, that it had never been approved for ANY disease! Remember, at this time on Fauci's National Institutes of Health (NIH) website, Fauci was ordering that ONLY Remdesivir be used for Covid. This could of course constitute an official "Standard of Care" order for any doctors treating Covid

Fauci also said that there were two research studies that proved Remdesivir was efficacious for Covid. The first study was a 2018 report on Remdesivr and Ebola. The second study was the cohort study I've written about above.

"We've never seen a virus do this to the kidneys"
On top of all that, Ardis goes into great detail about antibiotics given to Covid patients that caused their kidneys to shut down. Ardis knew about this because he has spent 20 years trying to help patients made ill by formal, official medicine (much like Drs. Daniels and Madej), and also because his father-in-law was killed in a Dallas hospital by being given a certain antibiotic that shut down HIS kidneys, and killed him.

Ardis noted how early reports from New York mentioned doctors being baffled by Covid apparently causing kidney shut down. But it was not Covid doing that, but the antibiotic medicines doctors were prescribing for Covid!

A lot of detail in this video and everyone needs to learn all they can.

Bottom Line
Friends, we've been so abused, our trust in government has been so abused, abused to the point of murder, by the very officials whom we thought were there to protect us.

Reiner says in summation, "This is bizarre. It's never been about health. It's about genocide, isn't it?" Ardis agrees. And maybe some of you have seen the recent reports of Klaus Schwab talking about "four billion uses mouths." (or however it was said). Schwab, Bill Gates, George Soros, etc. etc. have been lamenting their favorite refrain: that the world is over-populated.

They obviously intend to do something about that.

And remember too the scandal of a few years ago when it was revealed that a tenanus vaccine being freely administered in Central America was actually a sterilization drug. That was proved by the Vatican (before Bergoglio turned the Catholic Church into a Soros-Gates NGO). BTW, the Official Church, Bergoglio's Church, is denying anyone who asks for a religious exemption to the "vaccines". That is far, far beyond a "bridge too far" with this clearly non-Catholic "pope".

Covid unraveling faster by the day...

Friends, Amici,

The Covid narrative is unraveling faster than a Covid model ball made of yarn. Basically, its 'spiel' has to bear too many conflicting narratives with too many people looking on while, like a telescoped time-frame of scooping 20 years of Global Warming into a mere 18 months, revelations come ever faster and 'furiouser'.

Big Covid News: CDC to rule "vaccines" don't work...

 ...for the Delta variant.


See this Last Refuge article from yesterday. An excerpt:

The White House would never credit Donald Trump with the vaccine rollout unless there was something negative about the vaccine that is going to hit the newswires; that is a no-brainer.

That baseline is why CTH said two months ago to watch for the moment when the White House credits Trump with the vaccine, because that’s the moment when: (1) the vaccine was going to be identified as dangerous; and/or (2) reports would show the vaccine did not work.

Today the White House credited President Trump with the vaccine:

….And right on cue, the late-evening reporting indicates that tomorrow the CDC will announce the vaccine doesn’t work (against the Delta variant).   Hence, the need for masks, social distancing and/or possibly lockdowns 2.0.   Reminder, when the Intelligence Branch needs to get the public relations engaged, they use the New York Times.

An Préachán again:
Here's another article on the same idea. Of course, the variants don't exist. As Dr. David Martin said in that transcription I sent around:
There has not been in any of the published studies on what is reportedly the Delta variant, there has not been a population ...  calculated, which is the actual replication rate. What has been estimated are computer simulations. But unfortunately, if you look at GISAID, which is the public source of uploading any one of a number of variations, what you will find is that there has been no ability to identify any clinically altered gene sequence which has then a clinically expressed variation. And this is the problem all along, this is the problem going back to the very beginning of what's alleged to be a pandemic: Is we do not have any evidence that the gene sequence alteration had any clinical significance whatsoever. There has not been a single paper published by anyone that has actually established that anything novel since November of 2019 has clinical distinction from anything that predates November 2019.
An P again:
Keep this in mind and remember a week or so ago this news that the CDC was cutting back on/laying off of/beginning-the-beginning of retiring the PCR test for Covid. This article quotes from the CDC Lab Report:
“In preparation for this change, CDC recommends clinical laboratories and testing sites that have been using the CDC 2019-nCoV RT-PCR assay select and begin their transition to another FDA-authorized COVID-19 test. CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses. Such assays can facilitate continued testing for both influenza and SARS-CoV-2 and can save both time and resources as we head into influenza season.”
An Préachán again:
This would occur for several reasons, or so one can easily imagine. There's a lot of court cases, around the world, against the Covid "narrative" and of course the entire Covid fraud is founded and maintained on PCR testing. But over the next few months, it may well prove that court cases begin to unravel the whole "PCR Pandemic" that is Covid. This is the goal of the German lawyer Reiner Fuellmich. So, no wonder they're backing away from the PCR.

Secondly, governments and Big Pharma will want to "prove" the "vaccines" somehow "work" for Covid, especially as they now have to admit the "vaccines" don't work for the Delta variant. Therefore it is time to ditch the PCR tests, because the PCR can find you are one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel – not to mention finding Covid everywhere in everyone and completely burying the flu and pneumonia. Remember how the annual flu has disappeared this past year? They've decided that's gone on too long, what with daily reports are appearing that double-vaccinated people are coming down with Covid! (Of course they are: the PCR tests finds Covid everywhere.) See this hilarious article as an example: An entire, fully vaxxed Washington DC doctors' office tests positive for Covid! Of course the "vaccines" don't prevent one from getting Covid: the Big Pharma companies never said the "vaccines" would, but the Sheeple public just hear the word "vaccine" and think it is like the Smallpox vaccine, which is credited with killing off smallpox (though it actually didn't, but that's a long story!).

To prove the poisonous Covid "vaccines" work, therefore, it is time to rediscover something called the flu, or even pneumonia. These will miraculously return and Covid decrease. So other sorts of tests the CDC will be recommending.

Finally, another big bit of news. AstraZeneca wants out of the vaccine business? This article is quoting from a MainStream News Reuters article here. 

Now, just why would AstraZeneca want out? They have made billions off of the "vaccines" just like Pfizer, et al. And the government gave them almost all the money they used to develop their vaccine. Some interesting ideas are raised here. Keep in mind that the AstraZeneca vaccine has had more bad press than the others, so that might be part of it. Or they, too, can see the wheels coming off the whole Covid hoax. They've made their money and they want out of the game before the public storms in and lynches the perpetrators.

Protests are occurring around the world, after all, and in Oz, Australia, the government is using the military to squash the protests. (Click this link for some shocking videos.) The Aussie PM has said he wants 80 percent of the population vaccinated. The pressure is unimaginable, and many are caving in, but by no means all. However, using the military is a dangerous gambit against issue protestors. These are not mobs of Antifa or BLM crazies, and no threat to regular government order exists; these are average, everyday Aussies sick to death of the nonsense. A government using its national military to put that sort of protest down is pure dictatorship, and thus illigetimate. And if protestors are shot and/or killed, the government, and the military, will lose all legitimacy, immediately.

Biden, meanwhile, says he wants a national vaccine mandate in the U.S. 

Damned fool zombie Joe. The American citizenry, unlike the hapless people of Oz, are armed to the teeth. Americans have more weapons than most of the world's armies. The U.S. military, despite its "woke" leadership, is mostly conservative, and any effort to impose a national vaccine requirement is going to lead to an explosion. Don't think so? Consider this: the U.S. Postal Service union is just told the federal govern there's no way it will go along with mandatory vaccination! From their own website, see this notice. 

Yes, they "encourage" members to be vaccinated but absolutely refuse mandatory "vaccination". Americans are almost universally opposed to "vaccine passports" as well. Attempts here and there to impose such are being resisted, as time goes on, that resistance will grow.

Taken all together, the above news strong suggests the Covid Narrative Cavalcade of Idiocy is about to run over a cliff. And good riddance. I used to think "Global Warming" the biggest fraud in history, and the stake through the heart of the pretensions of "Scientism", the cult of modern science. Wow, was I completely wrong. The Covid fraud out-frauds it by light-years!

Bergoglio restricts Mass attendance to the "vaccinated"; this a political move against Trad Catholics

 Amici,

A friend sent this newdailycompass artricle about Pope Francis restricting attendance at his Mass to those who have been vaccinated. This is immoral in the extreme, to prohibit the non-vaccinated to attend the pope's Masses – or any Mass.

This is immoral in the extreme, as is the recent motu proprio, Traditionis custodes. (Ryan Grant makes the cogent argument that it should b translated "Tradtion's Jailers" as "custodes" means "guardians" and can be used for guardians of a gaol, and given the context, it makes perfect sense to translate it as "Gaolers of Tradition".)

The Catholic Faith is not a mutual suicide pact, neither is it incoherent. Neither does it fold up and blow away in the face of infectious diseases. Its doctrines and dogmas are not rewritten and recast by those occupying even the highest offices in Church. A pope may have carte blanc power but it is bestowed on him as Our Lord's Vicar; the pope is given the authority he has to defend the Faith, not slay it. (And as the current occupant of the See of Peter has forced ALL Vatican employees to take the experimental vaccines, on that alone he has lost all moral authority.) Currently, we are being crushed between the hammer of Traditionis custodes and the anvil of the Covid hoax.

We've had 60+ years of being tied into knots by the Modernists, and now this Traditionis custodes is just too much. It damns 1960 years of the Faith and worship, two millennia of theology and the saints; in truth, it actually constitutes an Oath Against Tradition, and completes the arch of events launched when Modernists seized control of Vatican II from the managers John 23 had picked.

It is also very much a political move against the one segment of the Church that refuses to believe in or abide by the Covid lockdowns and mask-wearing, and the horrible and evil forced infections for a disease that over 99 percent of those supposedly afflicted survive: Traditionis custodes is all of piece with the "Scamdemic". Politics permeate the Vatican II Church, especially in the last eight years. Enough.

We need not tolerate this. Alexander cut the Gordian knot. We need to tell the Modernists this we're not going tolerate this, and will cut their knots that they would choke us to death with.

As promised, the segment on The Delta Variant "the Illusion of Demand"

Friends,

As I promised a few days ago, here is the Delta Variant segment of the testimony Reiner Fuellmich receives from David Martin, CEO and Chairman of M·CAM®, an international intangible asset underwriter and analyst firm spanning work in innovation finance, trade, and intangible asset finance.

The Novus Ordu lacks intimacy; the TLM has it abundantly

A Chairde, Amici,

In his new motu proprio, Traditionis custodes, Bergoglio clearly signals he intends to end the Traditional Latin Mass. He'll allow a window for it temporarily, but he intends shutting that window. And soon. (Maybe his doctors told him he hasn't much longer on Earth?)

I know he's not going to be able to achieve his evil design. But in reflection on this: here's a excellent essay by Fr. Hunwicke at his blog Liturgical Notes, tiltled: Mass Last Saturday. Fr. H reflects on the poignancy of a thing about to be taken from one.

As for myself, here's the first in an essay series on the TLM and N.O. Liturgies regarding why one works and cannot be killed off, no matter how desperate the attempt, while the other has to be kept on life-support by all the official Church, making use of every hook and every crook, and by use of every sort of bullying and threat.

Novus Ordo is it lacks intimacy

I think one of the drawbacks of the Novus Ordo is it lacks intimacy. The TLM is like an Eastern Rite liturgy in its heart – mystical, interior, the Incarnation and yourself participating in that stupendous event are its raison d'être – and it uses time differently than the Novus Ordo does, certainly. But aside from the focus on the Incarnation, the intimacy of the the Eastern Rites and the TLM are what stand out to me so strongly.


Very much so, the individual has a different place in the two Masses. The N.O. is a horizontal construct with a horizontal vision; it is like a marching band with everyone in group lockstep, playing the same tune and all changing tunes at the same time. It lacks intimacy precisely because the souls worshiping in it are not allowed to wander. (Or wonder, either, for that matter.) On the other hand, the TLM is like floating in a river of grace, wide and warm and everyone can move along at their own time and own pace whirling about in endless eddies and currents, wherever the Holy Ghost wants them to go or where they feel the need to be, spiritually. 

That's why it is so intimate, and the N.O., well, not.

For myself, only after attending Eastern liturgies and then the full TLM did I realize I had never prayed in a Novus Ordo. I, myself. Mé fhéin. With God. The congregation prayed, sure. Loudly, too. But such congregational praying is not the same as one oneself praying. It hinders one's prayers. (This is why so many Protestants will say they feel "closer to God" on a seacoast or high on a hill, etc.) And in any event, large group recitation is only the shallowest form of prayer. (One can manage it with the family Rosary, yes, but to participate in the Incarnation, not so much.) 

That insight is worth a ton of blather about celebrating the N.O. 'reverently', as exemplified in so many Magisterium (center-of-the-road) Catholics saying, "We must celebrate it more reverently." Right. Keep trying. Didn't Einstein supposedly say, "The definition of insanity is keep trying the same experiment over and over and expecting a different result"? The truth is, it can never be very reverent precisely because of the group marching band nature of it.

Double-vaccinated Boris Johnson must do ten days of hard Covid penance

 C'mon, folks.


Covid has – as so often happens historically – devolved into a farce. It's the 21st century's South Sea Bubble. 

UK PM Boris Johnson, double vaccinated with one of the toxic vaccines, must do "ten days of hard Covid penance" at his country house because "he came into proximity of an individual who tested positive for Covid." Click here for an article from the Right. Click here for an article on this from the Left (i.e. Slate).

Wait...what? WHAT IS THIS? Are these Covid "vaccines" totally useless or what? I mean, they do kill a lot of people:
  • According to data submitted to the CDC, “there were nearly 12,000 deaths during a seven-month period since the COVID-19 shots were given emergency use authorization by the FDA last December.” Meanwhile across the ocean, the European Union reported 15,472 vaccines deaths and 1.5 million vaccine injuries. It is unconscionable that while inflicting all this suffering the pharma companies raked immense profits and churned out a bevy of happy billionaires.
An P again:
If you-all who have been "vaccinated" don't get angrier than Joe Biden gets when he doesn't get his pudding or a chance grope a little girl, I just don't know. You all ought to be out in the streets raising all git (as we used to say) over this absolute farce. Big Pharma makes billions and we are supposed to just get "jabbed and jabbed and jabbed."

TOLDYA: BigPharma now pushing MONTHLY “vaccination” in UK. The objective is a global mandatory coerced “subscription” to BigPharma, and THIS is how you sterilize humanity

This is from Ann Barnhardt's site. She's 110 percent right.

It would be hilarious FUNNY if it weren't so horribly tragic and stupid. We live in a world with a fake pope, a fake president, and fake "vaccines" being forced upon us. What next? Oh, yeah, China is threatening to nuke Japan. What a world.

Papa Francisco a blessing in disguise?

 Amici,

Romans 8:28 (Douay-Rheims)
And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.
KJB
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Doesn't Bergoglio know that if you want to want to make people interested in something, generally speaking, just try banning it. This is so common a reaction as to be a cliché. A ban or controversy about a book or a movie is great for generating business for that product. It is in this sense that "Papa Francisco" might indeed be a blessing in disguise.

Consider that in American Catholicism, and certainly the Catholicism in the Anglo-sphere, the mainstream Church is wilting fast. All the metrics point to that conclusion: Financial contributions, Mass attendance, ordinations, especially baptisms, all point to massive decline. The Covid lockdown speeded this decline up by a decade or more. The one "growth sector" the Church has is in the TLM communities.
  • Oh, sure, you'll be told in the U.S. that the illegal immigration is bringing in Catholics, and the future of the Church is Spanish-speaking. But while they may artificially inflate the total numbers for a while, few of them stay Catholic long. More importantly for the mainstream Church, the Federal government gives the Church money for these "refugees" and thus about half of the Church's current income is from the government! (No wonder the hierarchy pay no attention to the laity!)
The Long March from 1970 
When in 1970 the new Mass arrived, there had already been two new Missals since John XXIII's 1962 Missal, the last true TLM rite. 1960s Catholics were sort of "punch drunk" with all the uncertainty. Then the new Mass arrived, the Novus Ordo had dropped. This was supposed to be THE Mass from now on, although no Pope, not even the current occupant of the See of Peter, ever abrogated the old Mass.

Few were satisfied, however, with the new Mass. I remember reading that when it was first celebrated in the Vatican, in the Sistine Chapel, the bishop congregants were asked to vote to accept it. They divided into three groups of about the same size, those who accepted it (the smallest, IIRC), those who rejected it, and those who wanted modifications. Paul VI got the news and did one of his effeminate crying fits.

Today, therefore, when one reflects on the small number – overall – of TLM Catholics, remember that in 1970 NO TLM movement existed at all. Further realize that since 1976, Rome has tried to actively hinder it in various ways. Before that, the Vatican only grudgingly allowed the TLM after 1970, as with the famous 1971 "Agatha Christie Indult" for England and Wales. The Vatican hoped the old TLM devotees of the day would soon die off. But devotion to the TLM didn't die, and a Trad movement began, mainly sourced in the human realm by innumerable laity and the indefatigable Archbishop Marcel François Marie Joseph Lefebvre. Paul VI's people told Lefebvre, as did JPII's later, that if Lefebvre would just offer one Novus Ordo Mass (to show his loyalty to the regime), they'd leave him alone. But he stood firm. (Like father, like son. Archbishop Lefebvre's father René was in the French Resistance during WWII, and worked with British intelligence running a spy ring. Arrested, he would die in 1944 in the Sonnenberg concentration camp.)

So, in 52 years, what with the mainstream Church against it, and not just against it via official opposition and harassment, but also very heavy and uncharitable neglect, the Traditional Latin Mass movement definitely has exhibited a serious growth rate. Especially since Benedict's Summorum Pontificum.

At least Bergoglio feels better now himself after his attempt to guillotine the TLM. I suspect the medicos told him he hadn't too much longer to live. Certainly, Herod-like, he went for the children – TLM parishes being famous for having young, and large, families.

Also for Bergi, the Argentine is smart enough to see the handwriting on the wall: as I wrote a number of times last year, you may remember, Covid showed the shallow Vat2 Church drying up and blowing away. That Vatican II Church did not show the heroism, the gumption, the basic Faith the Church had demonstrated in previous centuries. Contrary to that, Trad parishes tended to either keep open or operate in some way, and the SSPX never closed at all. (DeSantis in Florida actually gave them special permission last year to keep open!)

And of course for much of 2020, Catholics could tune in to YouTube and watch whatever Masses they wanted as that was all the Church made available, and there they saw the stark difference between the aging polyester '70s crowd and their felt-banner Novus Ordo Mass on offer, and the Trad Masses. It's a night and day difference. Also, they could hear the amazing preaching of many Trads or the Trad-inclined, such as the wonderful Fr. James Altman from out in LaCrosse, Wisonsin. (Now being persecuted by his Vat2 bishop.)

Fear of the Dying
Just as with Joe Biden and the Democrats against the Audits, Bergoglio clearly responded in fear. Why not? He should be afraid. The polyester-suited "bluehairs", the last of the '60s and 70s brigades, of whom Bergi is the captain-general, are cottoning on to the fact they're facing extinction. Neither the Vatican II Council nor its turgid, palaverous documents, nor in the "Spirit of Vatican II" thereafter, epitomized by the Mass of Paul VI, achieve what the Modernist Reformers hoped for. By any metric researchers look at, whether in people retained or converted, financial contributions, clerical ordinations, religious (monk and nun) vocations, especially in new births/baptisms, the TLM parishes beat the Vat2 "church ladies" hands down. Therefore, it was hardly a surprise that when churches finally began to re-open people "voted with their feet" in Comrade Lenin's famous phrase. (And being sheeple, once the movement starts, ever more will follow.)

The Enforcer of the Lord God
In fact, as a number of commentators have pointed out, another JPII would have killed us with a thousand cuts; Bergoglio, thankfully, forces everyone to take sides, now. So he's truly a gift from God, in Romans 8:28 style. Over the past weekend, I've read from a number of sources that TLM Masses were jammed packed. What had not even existed in 1970 became a trickle by the '90s and something of a good creek flow after Benedict's Summorum Pontificum in 2007, is now rising ever higher. Or so the elderly Modernists seem to think. While some bishops are jumping to close down the TLM in their dioceses, the hue and cry of the Faithful, their laments, arise unto God. So it is that many bishops have quickly stated they are not infringing on the local TLMs at all.
  • I myself don't know why these hierarchs don't realize that since the Church has been trying to impede, if not actually stamp out, the TLM movement from its beginning (1970), that they think they can do so now, at this late date. Or have they never read of Gamaliel's famous comment about Christianity: "If this is not from God, it will die of its own accord; if it is from God, you cannot stop it"?
"Bergi" has actually done the Church a great favor, and all the middle-of-the-road "Conservative" Catholics, also known as the Magisterium Catholics or the JPII Catholics, are going to have to soon either go Left and embrace the gays (à la James Martin and so many of the queer clergy) or go to the Trads. Their third choice almost no longer exists. And we can thank Jorge Mario Bergoglio for that!

Shooting Wild, from the Hip 
Finally, there in the U.S., I've seen where many bishops have announced they're leaving the TLM communities alone. On the other hand, some yanked the Masses immediately, as in Little Rock, I believe. Absolute chaos. How are they going to explain the arbitrariness of it? It all "smells" of desperation and shooting from the hip. People sense the inherent contradiction of killing what's flourishing in an otherwise sterile landscape. It's King Herod murdering the children all over again, in its own way. An old, addled man, near death's door, lashes out at the only "youth" the Church has (TLM parishes are noted for their young families and many children). It's King Saul trying to kill the young David. History repeats, especially spiritual history.

Certainly, I must point out that Bergoglio doesn't WANT to help the TLM. We have to understand that Bergoglio's motu proprio has built-in mechanisms to steadily increase pressure on the TLM over the next few years. He definitely intends to kill it. But then, after 52 years, why expect success now?

And always and ever there's Romans 8:28. "All things work together unto good, according to His purpose."

Troubling One's House: Wrecking the Papacy to Denounce Bergoglio...

Amici,

With his publication and clear intent to forcefully implement his fateful motu proprio, Traditionis custodes, Jorge Bergoglio is clearly "troubling his own house." (Proverbs 11:29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind; And the foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.) Bergoglio has been doing almost nothing BUT "troubling his own house". 

He's now gone into high gear, as it were, in troubling his own house with Traditionis custodes. Yet – and please consider the supreme and devilish irony of this – in their efforts to try to corral Bergoglio over the past near decade, and especially now, many Trads and "Conservative" Catholics end up troubling THEIR OWN houses!

Why? One of the supremely nasty things about Bergoglio is that in order to get around the Argentine's craziness, to try to reign it in or in some way mitigate what The Ogre is doing, they denounce the office of the papacy in some degree, i.e. its power and scope. 

This is an essential problem if one accepts that Bergoglio is legitimately pope. If he is legitimately pope, he legitimately has the power to do almost anything – that's within the Deposit of Faith, of course. The kicker is, HE gets to decide to an incredible length just what that Deposit is. 

THIS is the trouble we've been having since Bergoglio's "election". 

Yet of course, if Bergoglio is not legitimately pope, should his election have been a sham, a coup d'état ecclesiastical, then all this trouble goes away. Poof! 

We have every reason to think Bergoglio was in no way legitimately elected: Benedict was clearly forced from office in a long-term operation done on many levels, mirroring the attempts to remove President Trump, and as with Trump, the efforts ended with a fraudulent election! The parallels are astounding.

Poor Benedict with his butler leaking private documents to the press and finally even with the Vatican's bank teller machine stopping to work; then there's the whole story with "the Saint Gallen Mafia" that is notorious, how they planned to put in Bergoglio when Benedict was elected, all that; and then Bergoglio's antics while in office that are "unpapal" in the extreme: pagan worship in the Vatican, embrace of the homosexual agenda, and now his clear intent, King Herod-like, to murder the children of Bethlehem, the small but vibrant and growing TLM movment. 

So, in fighting Bergoglio over the past eight years, many Trads and "Conservative" Catholics who accept the Argentine's election as legitimate have in effect been whittling away at the power of the papacy in order to try to corral the rogue "pope". You see that now in arguments that Bergoglio does not have the power to overturn Benedict, i.e. cancelling Pope Benedict's motu proprio Summorum Pontificum. The papal power was not supposed to be limited in this "worldly" legalistic/ersatz-constitutional fashion, but rather limited by charity, prudence, and faith.  

The power of the office is immense, and for any true Vicar of Christ, it ought to be very carefully used. And it has to be used with prudence and charity, for the position of the papacy is crucial, in fact, to the Faith. It is the oldest continuous office of any kind to on Earth. It is where "the buck stops". It's the final (Earthly) authority of the whole Christian Faith (despite what Prots and the 14 Orthies might say – their own chaos show how necessary the papacy is). And obviously such an office needs to be careful guarded – most primary in that defense is preventing the wrong man from assuming it! 

As Our Lord Christ's vicar, His vizier, His Prime Minister, a pope is only answerable to God Himself. So, a pope has the power to do most anything to support the bishops in their teaching and preaching and holding the Deposit of Faith. But deep wisdom is required. For it is often morally wrong to do something that could be otherwise licit but is in fact a sin against charity. In the process of this use of power, therefore, one has to be prayerful, humble, and Faith-filled. One has to be something very rare in the modern world: wise.

And it is not wise to "trouble one's house."  

Wisdom. If Bergoglio has "wisdom" it isn't heavenly wisdom, for it is not wisdom to trouble one's own house. 

Therefore I insist it is madness to insist on Bergoglio's election to the office was licit. That just ties one into hopeless, never-ending Gordian Knots. We see that in a flood-tide of knots now! And no, the papacy is not vacant. The office has had a properly elected pope all this time, Benedict. (He insists he no longer pope; does that make him a sedevacantist?) Every passing day proves again and against that we have an anti-pope and unless we "wise up" to this, we're doing nothing but "troubling our own house."

N.B. No one, least of all myself, has the right or authority to say a pope was invalidly elected; no cardinal or group of cardinals has that right: this is in the nature of the office of the papacy. But anyone, layman to cardinal, bishops, etc., have the right, and a clear duty, per Canon 212, to raise issues, and Jorge Bergoglio as Pope Francis does not remotely act or administer as a pope should, and the questions around his election are extremely significant. We need to let everyone know WE know that, and that we accept no blather to the contrary. Do NOT let yourself be twisted into mental 'knotage'. Alexander cut the Gordian Knot; it was the right thing to do. Being a Catholic isn't a mutual suicide pact nor is it giving one's soul to follow the Führerprinzip. A Führerprinzip defense on Judgement Day will work no better for us than it did for Wilhelm Keitel and Alfred Jodl at Nuremberg.
