Soul-Killing Tyrants On The Prowl

We seem to be having a spate of leaders, CINO leaders at that, playing the irascible tyrants and attempting to grind underfoot the people whom they are charged to serve.  Two months ago, it was Pope Francis with his Traditionis Custodes.  Even those not inclined to attend the Traditional Latin Mass - and some liberals, too - could not help but notice the sheer venom and vitriol embodied in that document.  In holding us in contempt, the pope seems to be evincing contempt for Our Lord.  Much prayer is needed.

Then two days ago, President Plugs issued his tin-horn-tyrant dictatorial screed.  He dropped all pretenses of civility as he outright threatened the livelihoods of private citizen who object to having the cells of poor murdered children injected into their own bodies.  He threatened private employers who refuse to carry out his petty dictates.  The video below is prima facie evidence of the progressives' contempt for those who would disagree with their great reset goals.  

Listen for yourselves.  Then understand that in both cases, we will need to engage in civil disobedience to unjust orders.  I will elaborate at another time.  Suffice it to say for now that I don't think the timing of these two draconian attacks upon us was any coincidence; it has the smell of a coordinated strategy.

In The Face Of The Looming Biden-Harris Tyranny

So now it appears that Joe "Plugs" Biden will be our next president: that is, until his handlers decide that he no longer needs to be in the White House for show and they replace him with someone else, probably Kamel.  No one with a scintilla of honesty in their being can gainsay that the election was stolen from Donald Trump, and quite blatantly at that.

Last evening however, I watched many members of the Senate wax pompous about doing "the will of the people" and decrying the attempts to set things aright.  Of course I would have expected that from the Democrats but too many Republicans played the "go along to get along" game.  That includes Vice President Pence, who basically ended his political career by disgracing himself spectacularly.  I wonder whom those bloviating gas-bags thought they were deceiving?  Maybe they didn't care, although I suspect there are a great number of woefully and willfully ignorant and naive people who swallowed that pabulum "lock, stock and barrel".

Still, a great many good and decent people fought hard these last few weeks to seek a modicum of real justice for the "will of the people", although that didn't happen last evening - political posturing aside.  We prayed to Our Lord, who obviously allowed this scourge to happen.  Now we must ask "why", not to contend with God or to utter rebellious complaint, but to learn what lessons that He wants us to draw from this sorry episode.

John Adams, a Founding Father and the second president of the United States, had this to say:"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."  Over the past 47 years, our country has slaughtered over 1 million of its unborn children.  It has expelled God from its schools and other sectors of public life.  It is now celebrating homosexuality and other manners of sexual perversions.  Long ago did we forfeit any claim to being a "moral and religious people".  I myself have conversed with people (some of them claiming to be Catholic!) who claim that just because the pope or bishops say so, that it's perfectly fine and even obligatory to ingest vaccines made from the body parts of murdered children.  Is it really any wonder that we must now deal with tyrants looming over us?

And deal with them we must, as we repent before Our Lord.  Some might now say our task is to passively suffer in silence and let the thugs have their ways.  This stance is nothing more than cowardice cloaked with a thin sanctimonious veneer.  I am seeing way too many instances of this nonsense on social media.  Too many are posting nonsense to the efffect of, "we are being chastised and God is in control, so let's just wait and watch God's plan unfold, and praise the Lord".  Frankly, anyone who posts this crap needs to be gob-smacked on the side of his or her head.  This damnable passivity is one of the many reasons why we are being chastised, and now we should engage in more of that sin?

So what to do now?  The first thing is that we must deal with the spiritual realities.  Our Lady of Fatima gave us very specific requests.  Make the First Saturday devotiions: that is, Mass, Confession, Rosary.  When I say "Mass", I mean get yourself to an in-person Mass.  That is one of the reasons we are being punished; the bishops have shuttered the churches, but by and large we have not uttered a peep regarding that.  Drive several hours, if you must, to receive the Sacraments.  I myself have had to do that.  Pray your Rosaries - every day.  Wear the Brown Scapulars, in accord with the wishes of Our Lady.

We must educate ourselves regarding the eternal truths of our Faith.  We cannot depend on the clergy (with a few exceptions) to assist us.  When we have pope and bishops claiming that it's morally acceptable to utilize the results of the mutilation of the bodies of murdered babies in a witches'-brew vaccine, how can we trust them to tell us the truth in other areas?

Learn US history (world history, too) by reading books that are older than the politically correct propaganda that has been published - same goes for civics (now we know why the public schools stopped teaching civics).

Look at the left and see how they were able to take a position of ascendancy.  It didn't just happen overnight.  They worked patiently and diligently through several decades, quietly ensconsing themselves in positions of influence.  We can afford to do no less.  While we won't adopt their goals and many of their methods, we must learn from their long-term dedication to their goals, such as those goals are.

One facebook friend of mine suggested that we put heavy emphasis on local actions, and local governments.  If nothing else, it's local governments that determine voting policies for their areas.  How many times have we seen "more Christian than thou" types wax sanctimonious about not voting for "the lesser of two evils" but then tout the virtues of some obscure "third party" candidate?  Well perhaps this is time to scuttle the GOP for a third party, but that party will have to win some down-ticket races in order to position themselves to float candidates for national offices.

Obviously we'll have to network with each other, and I might try to work out details.  Just the act of gathering in our own homes these days would constitute acts of civil disobedience, but perhaps that's just what is needed.  An unjust law is no law itself, and these "mandates" about the number of people in homes fly in the face of the First Amendment right to peaceable assembly.  These measures are not about "safety".  They are all about control, and about keeping us from one another to make it difficult to resist their planned tyrannies.

Let's steel ourselves with prayer and the Sacraments.  Pray those Rosaries, for some real struggles are ahead of us.

Hogan Does Hitler Quite Well - For The Great Reset

What do I mean?  I mean these acts of tyranny that allegedly took effect at 5pm one Wednesday November 25th.  Read the article for yourself.  They include:

  • Mandatory masking in all outside public areas
  • No more than 10 people at any gathering - even in private homes
  • Checkpoints by MD State Police to make sure we are behaving like good little sheep
  • A "snitch line" - so that "violators" can be reported to Dear Leader and his storm troopers
We are more and more resembling Red China.  In the name of "public health" the government is morphing into a monster that is infinitely worse than any virus.  We have seen many signs that his supposed power has gone to his head.   Listen to this cow plop of his, saying we have no constitutional right not to wear a mask.  The author of that article has it correctly.  He has no constitutional authority to dictate what we wear on our bodies.

So now it becomes an act of civil disobedience just to walk around in public like a normal, free citizen of the United States.  Yet that is what we must do, as opposed to accepting his boot on our neck like mindless and gutless sheeple.  "He's saving lives", some might say?  What about the elderly who have literally died from loneliness, cut off from their families?  How about the despair and even suicides from the economic ruin that these tyrants have foisted on us (for our own good, of course!)?  

Maryland isn't the only state plagued by a tin-horn fuhrer full of hubris.  Think New York, California, Illinois, Oregon, Virginia.  These fools need to have their political careers terminated.  That is yet another reason why all the voting fraud needs to be uprooted.  We need to pray of course.  We also need to disobey laws inherently tyrannical.  

Many of these other states are doubling down at this time, too.  Such a coincidence!  Or maybe not!  Do the powers-that-be sense that Biden may not be strolling to the White House in January?  Are they therefore trying to hasten the Great Reset?  

I believe they are.  Below I post a video from Taylor Marshall.  He is reading the open letter from Archbishop Vigano to President Trump, warning explicitly of the Great Reset.  As you listen, bear in mind that this video was recorded before the November election.  Take note when he mentions that the reset will be initiated by mass vaccinations and that a second shut-down, such as the one in which Hogan and others have placed us, is integral to that initiation.

I understand that in response to Hogan's latest tyranny, MD Rep Dan Cox will be filing articles of impeachment against Hogan in Annapolis next week.  We need to stand behind him.  We need to flood the phone lines of Hogan with our protest.  Anyone working that snitch line should be rebuked; be civil but firm.  Record yourselves when you do, for your own protection.

Toward the end of the video, and Vigano's letter, the archbishop makes mention of good people "ready to take to the streets".  Are you, dear readers, among that number?  You must be, for the sake of your families, church, nation and perhaps your eternal salvation.

#mowwidge And Civil Disobedience

First let me explain the brand-new hashtag that I just concocted.  The term "gay marriage" is a farce, for there is no such thing.  God Himself has designed and defined marriage to be a life-long exclusive commitment between one man and one woman, ordered for their sanctification and the procreation and education of children.  That's it, nothing else.  I refuse to use the term "gay marriage" for I will not dignify mortal sin by calling it "marriage".  Therefore I will call their diabolical pretense "mowwidge".  While it may seem like mockery, I submit to my readers that what the gay progressives have been attempting all along is a mockery of marriage and by extension, the God Who created marriage.  Now how did I come up with this term?  Well, anyone who saw the movie "Princess Bride" will recall the character to the leftt, and the first word out of his mouth during the wedding scene.  Hence the hashtag #mowwidge!

At Mass today, our pastor made plain that we might have to engage in civil disobedience for we cannot obey laws that run counter to God's laws.  He cited Martin Luther King's "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" that outlined King's own thoughts and experiences with civil disobedience as he fought unjust discrimination laws in the early 1960s.  As you read the letter, you'll note that he invoked both St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Augustine of Hippo, both Doctors of the Church.

Other Christian leaders are also considering civil disobedience.  Reverend Bill Owens, president and founder of Coalition of African-American Pastors, said on Tuesday (prior to the Obergefell v Hodges ruling ) told Breitbart News that should the ruling happen (and it did), he envisioned "another civil rights movement of Christians of various churches and massive civil disobedience."  Read the article.

IMHO, he's spot-on correct.  Until we elect leaders with firm moral convictions and spinal fortitude, we'll have no alternative.  I'll now link to some helpful tips from the American Family Association and Alliance Defending Freedom.  There are measures that can be taken to stave off attacks from the get-go.  In any event, we must stand firm and pray to Our Lord for strength and guidance.

Will We Be Brought To This Point?

A few weeks ago I posted one of Chuck Colson's videos in which he exposed the vocabular sophistry being employed by the Messiah Most Miserable and his lackeys in substituting "freedom of worship" for "freedom of religion".  He has released another video in which he explains why it may be necessary to disobey unjust law in order to obey God's law.  I'll state some thoughts first, because with all due respect to Mr. Colson, he's not Catholic.  While I have no disagreement with what he says, I think it needs to be examined a bit with a "Catholic eye".
