Pope Francis scolds countries
that produce weapons but refuse refugees

Pope Francis on Sunday scolded countries that produce weapons for wars fought elsewhere and then refuse to take in refugees fleeing the very same conflicts. The 82-year-old Argentine pope, whose parents were of Italian immigrant stock, has made the defense of migrants and refugees a plank of his pontificate and he has often clashed over immigration policy with US President Donald Trump and populist anti-immigrant politicians in Europe.

He is the very definition of "idiot."

How many refugees are allowed into the Vatican? How about giving up some of the pomp and circumstance which surrounds the Pope and give it to the refugees. Whenever I see pictures of Catholic churches and cathedrals, I see lots of gold and expensive statues and art. Why not sell all of that and give it to the poor? Start practicing what you preach.

#7, setting aside its refusal to house the world's refugee's within a 0.17 square mile area, it's hard to deny the fact that the Catholic Church - regardless of who sits in the chair of Peter - certainly practices what it preaches in terms of supporting the poor, the homeless, the hungry. It is the largest charitable organization in the world, in fact. The reality is that a church, just like people, can both 1) have wealth as well as 2) minister generously to the needy. Burning down the henhouse won't get you more eggs.

This anti-pope is no idiot. He is a dangerous man. That fact will be increasingly on display for the next few weeks during the Amazon synod. I encourage my fellow ldotters to seek information from reputable sites like Lifesite News, Church Militant and Taylor Marshall on YouTube for what might be world wide repercussions in the Church. For all you anti-Catholic bigots, don't get your hopes up. The Church will survive as Jesus promised, though it might have to go underground. Prophesy is being fulfilled. Fatima, Akita and Leo XIII.

Yea, our guns are a big problem until you need us. Guns were a problem in Great Britain until Herr Schicklegruber came a calling then the American patriots and sportsmen gladly sent their spare guns off the the open and grateful arms of our British brothers who discovered they had built their house out of straw. You might want to examine why you aren't speaking Deutsche there comrade Pope. You might also want to explore the correlation between those that want to confiscate guns and those who want to eliminate the Christian faith. Clue: it's a 100% correlation. What do you make of that

With all due respect to Catholics, the Pope was not elected to any office anywhere and he is certainly not setting policy in the US. So he can save his scolding for his own flock and leave the rest of us alone.

Unless he dies, the changes in dogma will come... give it time. Of course the next "pope" will probably be an openly gay or transgendered communist if this trend continues. I hold out little hope the lavender mafia that controls the Vatican will listen to the will of God in any matter much less the appointing of a pope. And this pope is stacking the Cardinal deck to make sure his successor is equally corrupt and ungodly.

#12, the Catholic Church is not generous with its own money, it's the money donated by it's millions of members that is uses to receive credit for its generosity. Just like the government does. In return for those donations, the people expect that money to be used wisely, not to sit in the Vatican's vaults and provide church leadership with a lavish lifestyle. Bishops wearing expensive clothes and riding around in black limousines send exactly the wrong message. My childhood priest had a new Jeep, a red Riviera, a boat and went hunting and fishing in Canada while presiding over small towns full of coal miners. Not cool. It reeks of Communism. Look at the countries that accept refugees and whose populace is not armed. France, Germany, Britain and the rest of the euros are overwhelmed with crime, rape, robbery and murder. Is that what Catholics really want? That philosophy does not fit my family.

Civil Rights Laws Against Blacks

The incoming Justice Department civil rights chief has a history of opposing civil rights prosecutions of black defendants, opposing a complaint against an African-American Democratic leader who discriminated against white voters. As an NAACP lawyer, Kristen Clarke lambasted the Justice Department for bringing a complaint against an African-American party boss in Mississippi who worked to suppress white votes, according to a federal probe. On a separate occasion, a federal oversight commission investigated claims that Clarke worked with allies at the Justice Department to quash the prosecution of the Black Panthers who menaced voters outside a Philadelphia precinct in 2008.

KDHE Secretary Lee Norman shared a COVID case chart with media this week, which he said shows the counties that abided by Governor Kelly’s mask mandate are ‘winning the battle.’ But he deceptively doctored the chart to justify mask mandates. (snip) At about the 15-minute mark of the recording, a reporter asks (according to Norman’s restatement of the hard-to-hear question, “If the no-mask counties would start masking, would it (blue line) drop, and would it dip down below the mask counties.” Norman said, “I think it would.” But the chart was consciously manipulated to produce that appearance by comparing the same data (cases per day) on different axes.

That is, except one: California Rep. TJ Cox.... In emails shared by the Interior Department with the House Natural Resources Committee, Cox’s staff sought two vehicle passes of the 340 available to the public for July 4. When he was told he’d have to wait in line like others, he pushed for “preferential treatment” to get them, according to a letter calling for an Interior Department investigation.

At first, I tried to find a reason to sympathize with whatever predicament the FBI Agents found themselves that caused them to kneel down. There is conflicting reporting about whether the Agents kneeled in order to minimize the potential for confrontation with a much larger group of protesters who were calling for them to do so, or whether the Agents were, in fact, demonstrating sympathy for the views being expressed by the protesters.

It happens in the Trump White House. It happened I think 16,000 times the year before last. What’s a crime is leaking it, but unmasking isn’t. In addition to which, I have to say that if Kayleigh McEnany had told Sam Donaldson and me what questions we should ask, that would not have gone well.”

The scientists said there is no sign so far that the virus can be found in other animals, including bats or the exotic wildlife sold for fresh meat at a market in the Chinese city of Wuhan....

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
