MAGA should never be told that a convicted pedophile and his circle of elite friends raping girls when they are 14 or 16 years old is a Democrat hoax. And I still can’t believe I had to fight President Trump to release the Epstein files, and to this day no one has been arrested or held accountable. This was what killed MAGA. I don’t have Trump Derangement Syndrome, I have Trump Disappointment Syndrome.

Oh wow! They built this chapel in the so-called Dark Ages. What were they thinking? Pilgrims climbed 268 steps towards Saint-Michel d’Aiguilhe's in search of salvation. A reminder of what a civilization can build when faith still reaches for the sky.

Dear Catholics : It's not a service, it's a liturgy. It's not a robe, they are vestments. It's not wine, it's the Blood of Jesus Christ It's not bread, it's the Body of Jesus Christ, Its not a table, it's an altar It's not a song, it's a hymn. It's not a poem, it's a psalm It's not a preacher, it's a priest It's not only a personal relationship, it's a convenantal relationship I love being Catholic, it's our life and lifestyle.. Please go to Mass today 😊

The Forest of Butovo— Where over 1000 clerics were executed The Butovo Forest was an execution site of the Soviet secret police located near Drozhzhino in Leninsky District, Moscow Oblast from 1938 to 1953. Butovo was used for mass executions and mass graves during Joseph Stalin's Great Purge, with 20,761 prisoners of various nationalities documented as being transported to the site and executed. In the winter of 1937 a group of priests, including an old bishop, were transported in the "black crow" (Stalin's closed trucks of the Communist secret police) to the scene of the execution. The ground was icy, hard as a rock. The guards, with their faces covered, ordered them to come out. The procedure was regular, cold and fast. However, something happened that the municipalities did not expect. As they were set at the edge of the plough, the bishop, with a trembling but clear voice, began to sing "Christ is Risen". The other priests, instead of crying or asking for mercy, joined him. Their chants echoed in the forest, breaking the absolute silence of death. An officer yelled to stop, marking the bishop in the face. He looked at him in the eyes with a peace that seemed eerie. "We forgive you, my children," he whispered, "for you do not know what you do." Every time a priest fell into the gap, the next would pick up the hymn from where the previous one had left off. With the last priest standing, the congregations were frozen. It wasn't the fear of death that shook them, but the lack of fear on the part of their victims. The last priest made the sign of the Cross, blessed his shooters, and fell into the pit before the final bullet was even heard. It is said that for years later, the inhabitants of the surrounding areas avoided approaching the Butovo Forest. They said that at nights, when the wind was blowing from the north, you could still hear the heavenly chants coming from through the earth. Today, a magnificent temple is erected on that spot. At its foundations are guarded thousands of objects found in the excavations: small crosses, etc., witnesses to a faith not defeated by bullets. From the book: Testimonies of Butovos - the Calvary of the Russian New Martyrs.

Why don’t schools teach about the Bolsheviks who killed millions of Orthodox Christians? Churches were destroyed, icons and relics smashed, priests executed and the faithful who resisted were tortured.

Moammar Gadhafi: "Taliban does not pose any threat" "Taliban equals Vatican... or similar to Vatican" "Where is al qaeda? Al qaeda is here in New York" (laughs) "Was he (Bin Laden) on one of those aircraft?" "The terrorists that hit New York are not from Afghan, they are not Afgahni" "The terrorists did not use a plane that left from Iraq or Afghanistan. ... they left from JFK here in NY. The whole action was done here" "They were trained here. They were not trained in Iraq or Afghanistan" Is this the reason he was killed?

"I thought I was pretty hot stuff." Wilt Chamberlain. In 1954, at 17 years old, 7’1″ Wilt Chamberlain was already a basketball phenom. Before his senior year of high school, Wilt Chamberlain worked as a bellhop at "Kutsher’s Country Club", a Jewish resort in the Catskill Mountains. By day he was making $2 an hour, getting great tips from the awestruck guests as he lifted their luggage through a second floor window while standing outside on the ground. At night Wilt played on the Kutsher’s basketball team, coached hard by the resort’s 'Athletic Director', Red Auerbach. "Don't you think Chamberlain, that it might be sort of a good idea to defense your man from in from of him instead of behind him? What the hell are you doing back there?" Red Auerbach. But I went on defending the guys from behind, reaching around with my arms to get the ball, waiting to fall on them when they wheeled around to shoot. "We are going to play Shawanga Lodge next. And you are going to have to defend B. H. Born. I think it's only fair to tell you, Chamberlain, that B. H. Born has just made All-America from the University of Kansas. And I think it's only fair to tell you that B. H. Born is going to make chopped chicken liver out of you." At the half-time break I had scored 30-some points and Born had scored exactly two. "Why don't you go to Harvard. Kid? And then I'll be able to pick you off in the territorial draft for the Celtics." "My Life in a Bush League" Wilt Chamberlain, 1965. Sports Illustrated. "The Catskills were created because other hotels in region refused to admit Jews around the turn of century through the 1930's. The phrase ‘No Hebrews or Consumptives’ was included in advertisements for these restricted hotels." Kutsher`s.
