Republicans Target Our Children to Maintain Power into the Future

Critical Race Theory, Don’t Say Gay, Grooming, Sexualizing Children, Woke Content of Textbooks, etc. are code words meant to stoke fear and provoke grievances, especially among parents, to get-out-the-vote for the Republican Party this November.

They also plan to elect Republicans far into the future by increasing attendance in private schools controlled by ideologues, and providing more tax-payer funding of these schools, to maintain a steady supply of obedient voters. Forewarned is forearmed.

Vatican Big Brother

“Everyone was spied on in the Vatican,” Ignazio Ingrao, Panorama magazine’s Vatican expert, declared in a telegraph.co.uk report dated March 1, 2013. He said the efforts “seemed eerily like a Vatican Big Brother,” a reference to the motto “Big Brother is watching you” in George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984.  

Recent testimonies in a Vatican financial crimes investigation and trial indicate the spying is ongoing.  

Why Pope Francis is Silent on Putin

“Pope Deplores the War in Ukraine but Not the Aggressor” was the headline in the March 18 edition of The New York Times. “Francis has studiously avoided naming President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, or even Russia itself, as the aggressor… Some analysts say that he risks complicating his legacy.”

Pope Francis “risks complicating” only the legacy constructed by the U.S. media, not the reality that he has cooperated with brutal dictators for almost half a century.

Catholic Dark Money: The Federalist Society

The Republican National Committee held a meeting February 2-4. They made clear that Donald Trump will be their presidential candidate in 2024. The Federalist Society held their meeting February 4-5. The featured speakers were Mike Pence and Gov. Ron DeSantis. “There’s a buzz about both” as presidential candidates in 2024. “It was a chance for the two men to talk to potential supporters, voters and donors,” Fox News reported

The Federalist Society has “controlled judicial selections” made by both Bush and Trump said Amanda Hollis-Brusky, author of “Ideas With Consequences: The Federalist Society and the Conservative Counterrevolution.” Bush appointed 325 federal judges. Trump appointed 245. There are 870 federal judgeships. So the Federalist Society not only controlled the selection of Supreme Court justices, but also most of an entire branch of our government. 

The Duplicitous Pope Francis

On Jan. 14, “clergy abuse victims asked the European Court of Human Rights to make a definitive ruling on whether the Vatican can continue to avoid being held liable for sexual abuse committed by Catholic priests by claiming state immunity … immunities afforded to a nation state while escaping the responsibilities that come with being a real nation, they argued,” the Associated Press reported.

“The 24 victims had stated the Vatican was indeed liable for their abuse because of the ‘structurally deficient’ way the Catholic hierarchy had handled cases of priests who raped and molested children for decades, covering up the crimes rather than reporting them,” explained the AP.

Catholic Dark Money: The Bishops

 “Biden has pledged to pursue certain policies that would advance moral evils and threaten human life and dignity, most seriously in the areas of abortion, contraception, marriage, and gender” the president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), Archbishop José Gomez, stated on Biden’s inauguration.

 “Catholic bishops are not partisan players in our nation’s politics,” Gomez further declared.

Catholic Dark Money: The Pandora Papers

The October 5, 2021, revelations show that senior operatives of the Legion of Christ Order set up a trio of trusts in New Zealand to hide the group’s money. At the time “victims of sexual abuse of its priests were seeking financial compensation from the Order through lawsuits,” noted theworldnews.net.

Letter to Biden Re: New Ambassador to the Vatican

“The Vatican has used its international reach and diplomatic ties to obstruct justice by protecting child rapists and war criminals from secular authorities …. The U.S. government, in recognizing the diplomatic status of the Vatican, is aiding this criminality.”

The Vatican: The Show Must Go On

“The main mission of the Holy See is to help bring the message of the Gospel to the ends of the earth,” a Vatican official recently claimed. But they dedicate far more time and resources to presenting a false façade of moral integrity to the world.

The Vatican Trial Part I: Institutional Sleaze

A Vatican trial began on July 27. Ten defendants were charged with a various financial crimes including fraud and embezzlement. The accusations show an organization where corruption usually goes unnoticed in a city/state whose leaders consider themselves to be so superior in religious training and practice that they are the sole legitimate interpreters of what is sin for the rest of us.

Most of the defendants were involved in purchasing a commercial building in London.
