a 'fake Catholic' and accused the Vatican
of 'blasphemies'
Posted By: Imright, 11/11/2023 11:59:21 PM
Pope Francis has forcibly removed a Texas bishop who built a huge social media following with his brazen criticism of the pontiff, including a warning of 'blasphemies emanating from Rome.' Bishop Joseph E. Strickland was removed from pastoral duties in the Diocese of Tyler, which will be temporarily administered by the bishop of Austin, the Vatican said in a one-sentence statement on Saturday. Strickland, an outspoken conservative on issues including abortion, was known for his social media broadsides against the Holy See and had come to symbolize the growing polarization within the US Catholic hierarchy.

Bill Maher has slammed Barack Obama for his 'moral equivalency' over the Gaza war after the former president called Israel's Palestinian occupation 'unbearable.'
The comedian said: 'The attack was only a month ago, a more savage attack than we've ever seen in reverse. There's a big difference in collateral damage and what Hamas did.'
The Islamist terror group slaughtered 1,200 civilians and took more than 200 hostage in its massacre on October 7. Since then, the Palestinians claim more than 10,000 people have died in Israel's bombing campaign.
South Carolina Senator Tim Scott has announced he is suspending his 2024 presidential campaign.
Scott, 58, told Fox News in an interview Sunday evening that he has withdrawn his bid for the White House.
It comes just four days after he showed up to the third GOP primary debate with his girlfriend Mindy Noce, 47, ending months of speculation about his love life. Scott posed for photos with the mother-of-three behind his debate lectern and briefly held her hand in a touching moment after a tense night in the GOP primary.

David Axelrod, the man who helped mastermind Barack Obama's 2008 run to the White House, now says President Joe Biden's age is a huge issue for Democrats and one with no apparent solution.
It comes after Biden, 80, suffered an embarrassing moment of confusion at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier as he stumbled through a Veterans Day service.
While he didn't reference it on Sunday, Axelrod - who served as chief strategist of Obama's two campaigns for the White House - said that Biden's age is becoming a problem as he hammered the president for the second time in a week.
Bit actress Nia Renee Hill, the wife of comedian Bill Burr, flipped off Donald Trump at a UFC event on Saturday night held at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. Hill was seated close behind Trump at the event and was caught on camera giving him the double bird.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, President Trump and Tucker Carlson were spotted together walking into Madison Square Garden in New York City for UFC 295.
President Trump walked out side by side with UFC CEO Dana White, Kid Rock, and Donald Trump. Jr, and Tucker Carlson.
The crowd roared as President Trump entered the ring.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass recently issued an order allowing the use of residential hotel rooms, typically reserved for low-income, disabled, and elderly residents, as temporary shelters for the homeless.
This move, part of the Inside Safe initiative, aims to address the city’s homelessness crisis by providing immediate shelter, despite potentially conflicting with a 2008 city law designed to protect these residential units.
The order states:
During this Local emergency, any unit in a Residential Hotel, whether a Residential Unit or Tourist Unit, may be made available for shelter and interim housing provided to an otherwise unsheltered individual under a booking or occupancy agreement
Saturday Night Live (SNL) slammed Republican presidential candidates’ perceived slim chances of beating former President Donald Trump for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.
Trump, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, interrupted the comedy show’s satire of Wednesday’s Republican presidential primary debate hosted by NBC News. “How adorable. They actually think they’ve got a chance,” SNL’s caricature of Trump told the audience as he crashed the debate. “Sad in some ways, but in other ways funny. Can you believe it, folks?”
The nation will be pushed toward “social and economic turmoil,” if a reelected President Donald Trump tries to enforce Congress’s border laws, the New York Times claimed on November 11.
“Sweeping Raids, Giant Camps and Mass Deportations: Inside Trump’s 2025 Immigration Plans,” declared the headline for an article about President Donald Trump’s campaign promises to enforce border policies if he is elected.The article was decorated with a matching claim from an investor group that lobbies for more migrant consumers, renters, and workers:

Chicago has become so unpleasant that migrants are fleeing back to Venezuela after being dumped in shelters and refused better paying jobs.
Since August last year, 20,700 migrants have arrived in Chicago from Texas. The Lone Star State's Governor Greg Abbott sent migrants to Chicago and other Democrat-run cities because of their proud status as 'sanctuary cities.' They offer enhanced protection against detention or deportation for undocumented migrants.
Now, Illinois' harsh winters, lack of migrant infrastructure, and ambivalent support from locals has made many people, who undertook the harsh US-Mexico border journey, actually turn around and go back home.
In a shocking incident that has triggered widespread outrage online, a pro-Palestinian mob can be seen cheering on a protester who climbed a flagpole and tore down U.S. flags as demonstrators marched through central Manhattan over Veterans Day weekend.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) found an Arabic copy of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” — in a children’s room at a home inside Gaza — as its forces continue to root out Hamas terrorists inside the territory.
President Isaac Herzog first revealed the discovered book during an interview with the BBC and showed that terrorists had written various notes in Arabic and highlighted passages in the book.“IDF forces discovered a copy of Hitler’s infamous book ‘Mein Kampf’ — translated into Arabic — in a child’s bedroom used as a Hamas terrorist base in Gaza,” the IDF said on X. “The book was discovered among the personal belongings
New York Post columnist Miranda Devine told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo on Sunday that Republican Rep. James Comer's subpoenas for Hunter and James Biden are ratcheting the probe to a "very aggressive level."
"I think this is the next phase. The subpoenas that James Comer signed last week and the requests for various associates and family members of the Bidens to come in for transcribed interviews is really notching it up to a very aggressive level. And this is why you see Hunter Biden's lawyer panicking, writing to the speaker, Mike Johnson, and saying, ‘call your dogs off.’ This is why you're seeing hit jobs on James Comer spreading out through

The attack happened on Wednesday, November 1.

Thousands march on Minnesota State Capitol, call for cease-fire in Gaza
A march to the Minnesota State Capitol led by the newly formed Free Palestine Coalition on Saturday was thousands strong.
Protestors again called for a cease-fire and demanded that the U.S. stop sending funding to Israel amid an increasingly desperate situation for Palestinian people living in Gaza.
“Different people come for different reasons,” shared coalition spokesperson Meredith Aby. “But we are united in a message, which is that we don’t want to have blood on our hands. We don’t want to be complicit.”
Uh oh!
Expect big names to drop in the federal government’s Asian brothel bust.
As previously reported, the Justice Department on Wednesday announced arrests in a high-end brothel network used by elected officials, military officers, government contractors that possess security clearances, lawyers, doctors and more.
According to the Justice Department, the ringleaders operated two websites to advertise Asian ‘models’ for photography as a front. “Three individuals have been arrested in connection with operating sophisticated high-end brothels in greater Boston and eastern Virginia.
Pro-Hamas protestors on the campus of MIT were warned that if they didn’t disperse–they were violating campus policies that prohibited interfering with academic activities and the free movement of students and staff–they would be suspended. The protestors were warned several times and failed to disperse.
Jewish students were prevented from entering the campus through the main entrance and were rerouted. Once the protestors finally dispersed the administration decided to not follow through on their threats to punish the students for violating the policies of the school.
It was a bit of a surprise because MIT President Kornbluth seemed ready to follow through on her threat.
So why didn’t she?

'Ethnic Cleansing' to Describe (Defame) Israel 14 replies
On Friday, The Washington Post reported that journalists by the hundreds are signing a petition demanding that all media outlets should describe Israel in hateful terms, including "apartheid," "ethnic cleansing," and "genocide." In other words, they want all news accounts to sound like an "eradicate Israel" rally. But the Post used the most anodyne words for this radical petition. On the front page of the Style section, it said "Journalists sign letter protesting war coverage." On an inside page, it was "Letter calls for precise terminology." Are they too afraid to put "apartheid" and "genocide" in the headline?
Tens of thousands of people have signed a petition backing a conservative bishop in Texas who has been dismissed from his position by Pope Francis. In a brief statement on Saturday, the Vatican said Francis, in a rare move, had "removed" Bishop Joseph Strickland of the pastoral governance of Tyler and appointed the bishop of Austin as the diocese's interim administrator.
Strickland is one of the pope's fiercest critics among U.S. Catholic conservatives and has been particularly critical of the pope's attempt to make the church more welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community.
Islam is Not a Religion

What is Islam? To answer that question, it’s more important to know what Islam isn’t. Islam is not a religion. It is an authoritarian, political ideology that forcibly imposes itself on all aspects of any society unfortunate enough to be under its yoke. Islam demands complete subjugation by its adherents. [snip] Islam allows no dissent. It is a complete and total way of life that glorifies oppression, slavery, and death. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, cultural, and military components. The religious component is the veil that hides the dangers.

There is something very wrong with the priorities of the Republican National Committee.
During the third GOP primary debate on Wednesday, candidate Vivek Ramaswamy called on RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel to resign, citing the party’s struggles in recent elections.
He labeled the GOP a “party of losers,” reminding viewers of the “red wave that never came” in 2022 and the latest election losses suffered by Republicans on Tuesday.
I’m sick and tired of this Republican Establishment that has made us a party of losers. Where is the accountability for years of losing: 2018, 2020, 2022 and now last night? I’m calling on @GOPChairwoman to resign tonight.
