Don river to get "director," Shmersk, the most hated department of the Secret Police, is now being praised, Don't speak ill of your local governor, even if he kicks you and yours out on the street, because Vlad appointed them, bridges are collapsing or in disrepair from Vladivostok to the Don, and refugees from Belgorod can't find apartments except at inflated prices if at all...

Well, to put it bluntly, this sucks. I was in our local Aldi store earlier today and they were in the midst of going to all digital pricing. That is, there's essentially a bar code on the shelf under each group of boxes of items, or under the 2% milk rack, etc., which you scan with a smart phone to get the price. No printed prices are on the shelves, and won't be, according to the employee I spoke with.

I think most of us would agree that today WE ARE LIVING IN THE GREATEST CULTURAL, RELIGIOUS AND ECONOMIC CRISIS IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. We are living in the most confusing times in the history of the world and of the Church. WE DESERVE ALL OF THIS because in recent decades there has been a great decline in the number of people who seek to obey and live God’s holy laws with the help of God through prayer and the Holy Sacraments. (Note: When pasting this document into Free Republic, it seems that most of the special formatting...

An essay by Emily Oster, Ph.D., published this week in The Atlantic suggesting “We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID” is fanning the flames of fury among those whose lives were destroyed by ad hominem attacks, de-platforming, delicensure, demonetization, demonization and debilitating vaccine injuries.Let’s Declare a Pandemic Amnesty,” an essay in this week’s “Ideas” section of The Atlantic included this subhead: “We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID.”The author of the article, Emily Oster,...

Russian President Putin:- We're witnessing sheer satanism in West - Do we want our children to be offered operations on sex changes? It's unacceptable! - Our future is different. We're fighting for a great, historic Russia… Vladimir Putin: “We are witnessing Satanism”

An aide to the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol said Thursday that the first public hearings, scheduled for prime time broadcast, would largely recapitulate what “has been reported” already. The Washington Post reported: Committee aides sought to temper expectations of any shocking revelations during Thursday’s hearing and instead framed the session as an opening argument. “[Thursday] night is connecting the dots,” said a second aide. “A lot of this has been reported and bits and pieces of it have been shared. But our aim is to tie all that together in...

To fully appreciate “The Revelation of Jesus Christ”, one must read it in conjunction with passages from other books of the Bible. Specifically, but not exclusively, Scriptures found in Daniel, Zechariah, Ezekiel, and various verses found in the New Testament. I also believe having an understanding of world history, economics, and politics is a must to get a proper perspective of the end times. However, even with all these tools at ones disposal we find no shortage of opinions as to what these visions of John represents. A quick search on Google shows that there are almost 100 million sites...

Luis Elizondo told the Washington Examiner that the U.S. government has intelligence-analysis predicated reason to further investigate whether these UFOs are indeed not of Earthly origin. It matters because Elizondo says these UFOs (what the government refers to as "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena"/UAPs) are not believed to be of Earth nation origin. Instead, Elizondo says it is a credible line of government inquiry that these UFOs are "extraterrestrial, extra-dimensional," or the creation of an Earth-based intelligence entirely unknown to our human society. Elizondo says it is "nothing more than an infinitesimally small possibility" that these extraordinary UFOs are of either U.S.,...

Rich Higgins is the quintessential American patriot. A tough, blunt-spoken guy from the streets of Boston, he began his career as an Army bomb technician in the 1990s. He went from screening visitors to the Clinton White House, looking for hidden explosives, to clearing IEDs in Iraq, to working in the Trump administration as a national security expert, worrying about metaphorical boobytraps set by Obama holdovers and Deep State seditionists. Higgins’ new book, “The Memo: 20 Years Inside the Deep State Fighting for America First,” is an eye-opening and unique book for a political memoir. It is not heavy on...

The Conservative movement in America - much like those who fought valiantly at the Alamo - will shortly be overrun and butchered at the hand of an EXPONENTIALLY godless and lawless nation and the world after the Rapture of the Church (Matt. 24:12, Gal. 1:4; Eph. 6:12, Rev. 13). One might say, "How can that come to be for America in light of Donald Trump's great conservative victories in many parts of the conservative spectrum? My friend, have they been great victories or have we just been holding back the multi fractured dam of lawlessness and getting back very very...

I just spent a considerable amount of time reviewing everything I could find from our immensely powerful CDC on this subject, starting here at their index. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/open-america/contact-tracing/index.html Within that link you will find:https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/principles-contact-tracing.html Within that are many pdf documents with detail. The “principles-contact-tracing-booklet.pdf” is a pretty clear outline. The download link to that pdf is at the bottom of that page. Apple and Google (Android) have already introduced apps to support this massive tracking effort in support of the CDC. Apple in iOS 13.5 introduced an exposure notification API, which lets apps from public health authorities and governments worldwide help...

The Rockefeller Foundation laid out its COVID-19 Testing Action Plan as a fundamental step to reopen the country. The plan will call for a significant ramp-up in testing, an expansion of contact tracing, a public-private testing technology accelerator, a national initiative to rapidly expand and optimize the use of lab capacity, and a testing data commons and digital platform to track COVID-19 statuses, among other things. They want to test up to 30 million people each week which will cost up to $100 billion. The plan also calls for up to 300,000 testers and contact tracers, and a data-sharing platform....

A CIA officer who filed a second-hand whistleblower complaint against President Trump has gotten cold feet about testifying after revelations emerged that he worked with Joe Biden, former CIA Director John Brennan, and a DNC operative who sought dirt on President Trump from officials in Ukraine’s former government.According to the Washington Examiner, discussions with the whistleblower – revealed by RealClearInvestigations as 33-year-old Eric Ciaramella have been halted, “and there is no discussion of testimony from a second whistleblower, who supported the first’s claims.” Ciaramella complained that President Trump abused his office when he asked Ukraine to investigate corruption allegations against Joe Biden and his son Hunter,...

August 9 is the 45th anniversary of the resignation of Richard Nixon, the only president in American history to resign or be removed from office. We know what triggered his resignation. He was already on the ropes after two and a half years of Watergate revelations, but what ended any and all defense was the release of the “smoking gun” transcript on August 5. It showed that Nixon had concurred with his staff’s suggestion that they get the CIA to tell the FBI not to interview two Watergate witnesses. As astonishing as it may be to Americans, who have been...

Carolla and Prager team up for a frightening look at the First Amendment under fire. “No Safe Spaces” reveals the Left’s plan to squash free speech as we’ve known it for 243 years. That’s not hyperbole. The evidence speaks for itself over and again in 90 riveting minutes. “No Safe Spaces” could have gone on for another hour, maybe two, had all the free speech attacks made the final cut. The film will be released in the Fall, but one thing stands true following an early preview. It’s hard to imagine a more vital film hitting theaters by year’s end.

DNA molecules are well known as carriers of huge amounts of biological information, and there is growing interest in using DNA in engineered data storage devices that can hold vastly more data than our current hard drives. But new research shows that DNA isn't the only game in town when it comes to molecular data storage. A study led by Brown University researchers shows that it's possible to store and retrieve data stored in artificial metabolomes—arrays of liquid mixtures containing sugars, amino acids and other types of small molecules. For a paper published in the journal PLOS ONE, the researchers...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been praised in the liberal press for her “transparency,” particularly on social media. Just don’t be transparent about her — at least if you worked for her campaign — or you might be hearing from her lawyers. According to the New York Post, one of the New York Democrat’s former campaign aides is currently feeling the wrath of the AOC legal team after publishing an account of his time working for the liberal freshman congresswoman. “Ocasio-Cortez’s legal counsel sent a cease and desist letter to Latino activist Ramon Ramirez for his self-published memoir titled ‘Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:...

I heard the Lord speak, “I have extended an olive branch of peace to the United States of America and will extend Donald Trump’s presidency into a second term by the power of my right hand. What I have done in the White House will happen with every branch of Government in the United States for I will pull out corruption and plant trees of righteousness that will bear much fruit. Even now the ax is laid to the root of these corrupt trees. Every tree which does not bear good fruit will be cut down, pulled out and thrown...

The brilliant Justice Jeanine takes on Obama's idiotic claims and vile hatred filled rhetoric. She asks Assistant Press Secretary about Pres. Trump declassifying FISA documents. Also has Michelle Malkin and Dan Bongino. Takes on the taking the knee controversy.

Today, if you hear his voice, don't harden your heart. One of the reasons I write for Canada Free Press is that my editor does not mind a bit when I incorporate my faith in my work. Most places get queasy about that. Religious stuff has a tendency to chase people off. I don’t like writing for religious venues, though, because I don’t want to waste my time talking to the choir. As many of my regular readers know, I myself was once a hardened atheist. And I didn’t want to waste my time reading church magazines. Today we are...
