Our First Third World Election

Posted on by charliej373

By Charlie Johnston

When Donald Trump was leading in the big “toss-up” states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia and North Carolina last night, all run by Democrats, suddenly, at almost the same time, the states quit counting votes. Had to get home and get their beauty rest, you know. That has been the go-to move for authoritarian states with electoral systems for over half a century. If the vote is going against you, stop counting long enough to go manufacture enough votes to overcome your deficit. Immigrants from Venezuela were shocked as they never expected to see Hugo Chavez style tactics in American elections. But here we are.

After they stopped counting in Michigan, an early update this morning showed 138,339 new votes – and the split among them was Biden: 138,339 and Trump: 0. (Update – The fellow who reported this has since recanted, with the Detroit Free Press reporting it was a clerical error. I did think this was over the top brazen. When all those states stopped counting at almost the same time, that was brazen enough for me)  They’re not even trying to hide what they are doing here. For too long, the left has made progressively more brazen offenses – and the worst they suffer when caught is to get a do-over. When they are totally obsessed with power, why wouldn’t they just be brazen under those circumstances? I don’t know whether I am madder at the denizens of social media and the press who are trying to cover for this open mass voter fraud, or the weenie conservatives who have said that we should wait for all the facts to come in before jumping to conclusions. Some things are obvious on their face – and dithering conservative commentators who are flaccid in the defense of liberty for fear of hurting a leftist’s tender feelings have been the death of us.

We have been heading this way for a very long time. Back in the days when I was in radio, “motor-voter” was all the rage with the smart set. Any time you registered a vehicle or had just about any interaction with the Dept. of Motor Vehicles, you were automatically registered to vote. I complained at that time that this was obviously an effort to get more names on the rolls who would not vote, in order to easier facilitate voter fraud – which is a mainstay of Democrat campaign plans. It is not hard to register to vote – and it ensures that the people registered will actually be likely to vote – and so more difficult to use as shills for fraudsters. All a fraudster has to do is look at the voter rolls, find the names on there who never vote, and they can safely stuff the ballot box under those names. Then we described voter ID as a form of voter suppression. ID’s are used to get a bottle of beer, open a bank account, get on an airplane, and even get into a night club – but we can’t insist on knowing who is showing up to vote in our elections and whether they are eligible. This begat Democratic organizations in many cities getting busloads of people to go from poll to poll posing as people on the rolls who didn’t vote – and cast their votes for Democrats at multiple precincts – all day long. It was a go-to move in New Orleans for a long time. Then we had large-scale “early” voting, the better to break the chain of custody that once helped ensure that the only ballots counted were those legitimately cast before witnesses. In 2008, Senator Norm Coleman (R-Minn) won by a little over 700 votes in his race with Democrat Al Franken. Lo and behold, Franken’s forces found trunkfuls of ballots and was declared the winner after all. It was an obvious fraud, but Republicans didn’t want to make too big of a fuss. We have been barreling towards open third-world style election fraud for almost three decades – and with the massive mail-in campaign this year, we are here. I am thankful it happened when we had a fighter in the White House rather than one of the more decorous Republican occupants.

So we will fight. If those Democrat-run states had not stopped the counting last night to give them a chance to manufacture ballots, we would all know that Trump won. I think the odds are about 60-40 that he will ultimately prevail. But in a larger sense, the status quo has prevailed even if Trump prevails. The next year will, I think, be more tumultuous and violent than the last four have been. Petty tyrants at every level have been emboldened to bully their citizens, Constitution and Bill of Rights be damned. We have a long, hard struggle ahead of us.

I am most horrified to know that somewhere around half the country believes that rioting, looting, arson, murder and censorship are great if it supports their political objectives. Minorities did move in dramatically higher numbers into Trump’s camp. But suburbanites – particularly suburban women – moved even further into the Democratic camp than they did two years ago (with the exception of Kenosha, Wisconsin, where the suburban women cannot delude themselves that the mob will never come for them). The spirit of Jezebel is alive in the land – and a good chunk of the American people have become degenerate and entirely self-absorbed. Unless we can turn the tide, that always leads to collapse, even if it happens in slow motion and tens of millions of people are claimed as victims in the process, as happened in the Soviet Union and in China. Collapse, itself, of course, could be the instrument which ultimately turns the tide. I’ve got to confess, I’m kind of rooting for collapse, because a lot more people will be murdered in the power games of these new authoritarians if they manage to hold their system together for a while.

In all the comments I got in the aftermath of all this, two stuck with me. One fellow told me when his wife woke up this morning, she asked him, “Did we choose Barabbas?” Cut me right to the quick. The other, a politically astute fellow with a lot of professional experience asked me if I thought maybe the left WANTS voters to see them steal the election to spark a backlash. Good question. They are itching for a conclusive fight.

What is certain is that, whatever happens, the left will be coming for the faith and the faithful even harder and with more virulence than they have for the last few years. In working with the CORAC team, I want to ensure that we craft and pick our battles to gain real ground – and waste no effort in raw, but impotent, frustration. More than ever, we will have to ban together to defend each other and the basic freedoms we all hold dear. The Rubicon has been crossed and things will never again be as they once were. With discipline, dedication and fortitude we can ultimately make them better. It all begins with the defense of faith, family and freedom. If you have not already, won’t you sign up to join with us at CORAC? And if you have not yet donated to our fall fundraising effort and can, please go here.

God is in His heaven and we are His people. I hope you have heeded my previous calls to gird your loins – for now He calls us to our battle stations.

  2. I saw the Michigan ballot info very early this AM and thought this is going to be a long day. I glanced at a few post but didn’t turn the tv on.
    I am thankful we have a President who stands up for the sanctity of life and knew the left would try to cheat their way to “victory”. Several legal battles before this is over. I sure am glad ACB is a SCOTUS.

    I watched Fox for just a bit last night then turned to Bannon’s War Room. I learned a great deal from the guy he has polling: Rich Baris with Big Data Polling. I know I’ve read some controversy around Bannon, but I learned more listening to his poll person than Fox’s. Any opinions on Rich Baris, Charlie?

    1. Becky-TN, apparently Fox is in on the election “fix.” The conflict of interest story is here…

      I haven’t watched Fox in years. Their credibility went down the tubes, IMHO, ever since Fox hired the cheater, Donna Brazile. You know, the debate moderator that gave Hillary the questions before she debated Trump in 2016? Cheating apparently is what Democrats and some globalist Republicans do best, it seems.

      Many of the commenters on The Conservative Treehouse have turned Fox off forever after last night’s election reporting. Apparently, it was disgraceful, and it exposed their evil globalist agenda against Trump. Especially after Fox called Arizona for Biden in early-ballot counting. I’ve read that this was all coordinated by design. Since Fox is perceived as the conservative news outlet, their base would accept this Arizona call more readily and then other news stations could follow easily. Declaring a state for a particular candidate early apparently has a psychological impact on the electorate. Just like all election news outlets never showed Trump ahead of Biden in electoral vote tallies or popular vote counts. The states were called accordingly to maximize this effect of Biden always being ahead. This was all done by design, I believe.

      Charlie is always teaching us about the psychological aspects of running a political campaign. Psychological warfare was all on display last night.

      1. Here is Gov. DeSantis calling out Fox about their horrible early call of Arizona for Biden (minute 7:10) when in contrast Fox waited a really long time to call Florida for Trump. Something is not kosher with Fox. In addition, there is no excuse for all of the other states not to have integrity in their elections like Florida, unless they want to cheat.

        1. Two of my son’s friends discovered that NJ voted their deceased parents. I repeat these two persons died months ago. NJ is known for deceased ballot voting. When you change address or a parent dies it is paramount that the Board of Elections is notified. My sister recently moved from CA to PA. The person she bought her house from moved to FLA. She received a voter request form for the former owner of her home. She was honest and threw it out. However… No one at our polling place checked to see if I or my son had voted by mail. I know this step was done at my sister’s polling place. My husband voted by mail. His signature on the voter book was empty as it should have been since he voted by mail but technically he could have gone to the polling place and voted. What a mess. BTW Philadelphia always, I repeat, always cheats in elections. It is no suprise that they suspended their counting in order to see just how many votes were needed in order to diminish or overwhelm Trump’s lead. Quite frankly, I think this plan is playing out in several states. Biden said he will close down the country again but he can’t do that until the end of January. I bet covid will magically disappear because they need the tax revenue. President Trump did a magnificent job on covid and the economy. The Democrats did not. Have never reduced a tax. Turns out Trump is an honest man. Biden and Pelosi are not. Never forget.

      2. The thing that first set me off about Fox last night was their early call on House seats. They said VERY early on that Democrats would pick up five new seats. My old election night habits are still with me. I had five other sites on my laptop – and was checking in with elections totals from other sources. Not a one had anything even resembling that type of outcome – and it was WAY too early to make such a sweeping assessment. Then they had the smarmy little guy running the “Decision Desk” talking. Lord, have mercy, I have dealt with smug, inept weasels like him all my life. When they asked him how he could be so confident of Arizona, he did not give an explanation, but just asserted that he knew what he was doing. Maybe he did, but what he was doing was NOT giving a clean, honest assessment. Instead, as the night went on, Republicans picked up more than five seats in the House. I had Fox on because I don’t trust any other network to give me anything but spin. Now, at the actual news desk of Fox, they don’t give anything but leftist spin – and even more incompetently than the rest of the establishment media. You can trust Tucker, Hannity, and Ingraham – but most of the rest on that network have gone native. Brit Hume is a serious man, but Chris Wallace and John Roberts? They are ready for MSNBC any time.

But then he took the name Francis (which is my husband and grandfather’s name) and I dismissed it thinking I was wrong. I was so wrong on my being wrong. Every time he has confused us with his comments I think back to that day and realize that maybe God was sending me a very early warning.

Annie, I can suggest to you and other readers, that there are other alternatives on the internet worth reading for your news… One American News Network (OANN)…founded by a Catholic or The Epoch Times (a paid subscription which is very nominal…but they always have a trial period so that you can see how you like it.) They are both very good. The history of the founder of The Epoch Times is very interesting one. He fled China under persecution because he was trying to expose the CCP and their evils over there.

          And I’m with you on the fluctuations between the sadness and the leaving it up to the Lord thoughts. And thanks for the **** show laugh. That is what it is. And we do need a good laugh now more than ever.

        We raised our children in a conservative, faithful, Catholic household. Then they all got indocrinated with the leftist, anti-God propaganda when they all went off to college.

Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” You trained your children well. They’re not old yet. They will come back.

          Keep praying. Daily immerse them in the Precious Blood of our Lord, and bind them to the Immaculate Heart of Mother Mary through the prayers of the Holy Rosary. You may not live to see it, but they will come back.

              2. Littlelight, I feel your pain. Truly, I do. I have lost a son to suicide. He lost his battle to schizophrenia, a brain disease that also took my brother by the same demise. So I do know that since God formed them in the womb, God also knows that they had this genetic brain disease, and suffered all of their lives with it. It pains me to no end how much my son and brother suffered, and I didn’t even know it! Imagine your mind becoming your enemy. Seeing and hearing things that are not real, but to you, they are real. How horrific! And because of the stigma of having a severe mental illness, they kept their suffering hidden for most of their lives, even hidden from their closest family members, until a psychotic episode brought their disease out in the open. So we do hope in the abundant mercies of Our Lord for our dead children and our living ones.

                And now I suffer, sacrifice, and pray for my living, adult children lost in a different way. They don’t have a brain disease that affects their judgment. And even though I can talk to them and hug them, this gives me little comfort because they are making some very bad perilous choices in their lives that will affect their eternal salvation. And this is much more serious than a deadly brain disease.

                Praying that your heart finds peace in the Lord to relieve the pain of your loss. And that He will comfort you. Peace be with you.

                2. God bless Texas—yes, sending many prayers and love! Ty for reaching-out to me and sharing this. It has been 3 years on this past Nov. 3rd for us.

                  I truly believe the cause of 99.9% of suicides is brain disease—because no one can die this way unless their brain is malfunctioning. In our case we have no diagnosis, but there is zero doubt brain disease was there.

                  You said:
                  “It pains me to no end how much my son and brother suffered, and I didn’t even know it! Imagine your mind becoming your enemy. ”

                  Sadly, as I know you understand, all of us in my family can imagine this pain, ugh. This torment you clearly describe is one my husband & I/my children, intimately share. We also had no idea. From what I’ve read on Alliance of Hope, this is a universal experience survivors have. Even those who DID know their beloved was suicidal. It is the bottom of Hell.

                  For me this is the hardest part to overcome. Because we just see the terrible end, can puzzle-together the unbearable suffering that preceded it all. So it is in “The Darkness of Faith” we believe our Beloveds are whole and happy again. “In The Darkness of Faith” Trust and patience are so very difficult here.

                  Texas, a word on your adult kiddos and conversions. Are you acquainted with: “Anne a Lay Apostle”? There is a vol in which she speaks to this. In it Jesus tells her that if there is only one believer in a family, only one person begging, that is enough for salvation for all. The vols are free and online. It touched me in a healing way and gave me so much hope. If you like, I will find the reference for you.

                  If you will indulge me, another word on conversions. My elderly Mom (pls pray Coracs! she’s in a nsg home, ugh) prayed 40yrs for my Dad. My Dad died unexpectedly, alone in hosp, refusing to see priest. Mom was devastated–all those prayers wasted? How? My first birthday after my Dad died, I was so sad, thinking despite how much my Dad suffered (enormously) how much he loved me and how much I loved him. He made a personal point of saying to me; “Happy Birthday, Susan!” His tone, etc God used to open my eyes to this truth. One of my daughter had a vision (not a dream) where my Dad told her on the eve of my birthday: “Tell your Mom I love her!” Those in hell cannot love!

                  “In the Darkness of Faith” +Dear Lord, let us all cling to Your Promises until we see them with our own eyes!+

                      Vol 6
                      pages 4 & 5: from “Mary and Unknown saint–NOT The Blessed Mother”

                      I want to speak to those mothers who have lost children through sickness or tragedy. Dearest mother, whose heart is broken, you will see your child again, and when you do you will see that your child has been joyful and cared for in your brief separation. Do not grieve if you can help it, but spread joy to those who also grieve. Ask me and I will help you to do this because I know it seems an impossible thing. All is well in Heaven. Have no fear that your child is not with God. We must all cooperate with Heaven during this time, so prayerfully consider what it is Jesus needs from you.

                      Booklet Page 18 and 19
                      HEAVEN SPEAKSTO PARENTS WHO WORRY ABOUT THEIR CHILDREN’S SALVATION

                      Blessed Mother

                      My dear parent, how my heart hurts for you. I understand the pain of worrying over a child. I know that you worry because you seek to prevent additional pain for your child, regardless of their age. I know you see their path and you fear trouble ahead for them. I also see this and I will help you to call your child back to God’s path. We do this in great love and gentleness. This is the best way. I will give you my gentleness and with it you will melt your child’s heart and create in him or her a longing for goodness. There is no circumstance that should cause you to give up hope. I will not allow you to give up hope. Even as you read these words I am obtaining fresh hope for you, and with this hope I am also obtaining a spirit of calm which will enable you to serve in peace. We will surround this child for you. We will protect this child. If your child has died and you worry for their salvation, I ask you today to stop. God is all-merciful. Trust in his goodness. The good God could not face a parent who trusted him and disappoint that parent. Your greatest weapon in the battle to save your children is trust in God. Use this weapon and be at peace because I am your mother and I read your heart effortlessly. I will help you. Your battle is also my battle.

                  3. Texas, Little(Big)Light, HTTP, I’m so sorry for your losses. Thank you for sharing these bits from Anne the lay apostle. I am going to send them to my mom (we lost my special needs brother four years ago), and one of her friends who lost her son to suicide a few years ago (he was 19). This will really hearten them. They both have become leaders of grief support groups and I know it really helps Mom when she can help to comfort someone who has lost a child. God bless you in your sadness. I hope knowing that they are in His arms helps relieve that feeling of loss. I will keep you all in my prayers.

        6. Taxes, I can sympathize with grown children being so blind – two of my three children as well as their spouses voted for Biden. My husband’s entire family voted for Biden, all were raised in a Catholic household attending Catholic schools. It isn’t just a vote against Trump. Many of my husband’s siblings attend “alternate Churches ” now and have given up their faith. Those who have remained in the Catholic Church, quote social justice issues , such as LGBTQ rights and immigration as having more moral value than abortion. I was just telling my husband yesterday that I feel like my circle is getting way too small. I too sometimes feel like a failure.
          On a bright note though, I fully believe once my children come back to their roots and the Catholic Church, they will be the best “Sign of Hope” for the world.

  11. Since my kids were practically the only group that went trick-or-treating this year in the neighborhood, we have about 10 pounds of Halloween candy I’ve been stress eating over the last two days. Oy. In my polling station in suburban Philadelphia, we had very long lines all day on Tuesday with some boisterous Trump supporters. A Russian immigrant was waving a giant flag with a huge bald eagle. Nevertheless, we are a slightly Democrat-leaning district, but with good people. If Pennsylvania didn’t come through for Trump, I’d be asking my husband to head for the hills, maybe join Patrick Daniel roaming South Dakota. My family is here and we found a fabulous Classical Catholic school for my kids and we have a great new pastor at our church, so things are still good no matter what. God is great and we’ll do our best.

  13. You are gifted, Charlie. You have great insights. President Trump had the most torturous presidency (with hostility from the Democrats and mainstream media) in this country since Abraham Lincoln. I woke up depressed knowing that he did not win in a landslide. I was kidding myself. How can a man who has been dragged through the mud for almost 4 years, be assured of winning an election. He has so many enemies. I feel that he was destined to win in 2016 because our country was heading deeper and deeper into moral decay….but not many people seemed to notice. But in 4 years, Trump turned this country around in so many way and opened our eyes to the mistakes of the past leaders. God gave him the strength to endure persecution and stay focused on his promises, which he fulfilled. He truly loves every American and has won further support from the black and Spanish communities who benefitted greatly from his presidency.

    You know, I think Charlie is right. Maybe if Joe Biden wins, he and his socialist friends can show the American people what it’s like to lose the democracy our forefathers laid the ground work for all future generations to enjoy. I guess we learn from bad experiences.

    Keep praying, especially the Rosary. Don’t give up, the era of peace is coming. Jesus I trust in you.

I will just keep praying that God continues to work through President Trump and all of us as we do our part to open other people’s eyes.

          On another note, I had a great conversation with a very kind and quiet carryout at our store the other day. He was cleaning up the bakery pans and as I walked to the sink and right out of the blue he says to me, “I sure hope Biden wins.” I took a gulp, thought for a minute then I said may I ask why? (this is unusual for me to confront or counter).

          1. Oops! Dang, I accidently hit send. Oh well, anyway, if I remember I think he said he didn’t want Trump to get in again. Then we got into a conversation about this election and I told him I used to be a Democrat and that one of the reasons I haven’t been for a while is because the Democratic Party isn’t the same party it used to be, that it is being taken over by Socialist and Communist leaning people who want to take away our freedom to worship God, our guns for hunting or self-defense, our freedom to own our own businesses, and a lot of other things.
            Then I got braver (eek!) I asked him if he believed in God. He said yes, then he told me he was Muslim. I said that’s cool, do you go to a Mosque? He said yes but not regularly. Then I told him I was Catholic, then I kind of chuckled and said, you know, if we were living in the middle east we probably wouldn’t even be able to have this conversation let alone talk to each other. He chuckled at that, too, then I continued saying that’s one of the things I love about our country. We have the freedom to celebrate our nation, but are also free to appreciate and respect all the different cultures and heritages of people that live here, and I love that about living here. Then I told him that’s why I wanted Trump to win. I said I don’t like the Twitter stuff and the off the cuff remarks he makes sometimes, but I want him to win because he isn’t trying to take God out of our country, among other things. He was very open to talking about it, and we talked a little more. A while later as I was checking out my groceries, he bagged them and as he carried them out to my van I told him that I really enjoyed talking with him and he said, “me too, have a good week Julie.” He’s such a nice kid, maybe 19?
            May God bless him and all other kids in his age group, that they may one day learn the truth about the lies they have been taught and really be set free! (Woof dah! Sorry this was so long)! ~juls

  15. From the Milwaukee area of WI… sadly, unless the absentee ballots themselves are suspect, the reason for the Biden jump “makes sense”. I was watching the news prior to going to bed and at around 10 pm, the election commissioner said that they had approx. 169000 absentee ballots to count for the city of Milwaukee. They would not report any of the absentee results until all were counted/processed. As of that time they had done approx. 102000. When I was up and getting ready to go to mass (somewhere between 5-5:30 am), the news showed the team marching somewhere to do a briefing on the results, I assume. I didn’t have time to watch. Milwaukee always goes heavily democratic. I was worried when they had that many to report and I saw that President Trump was only ahead about 100K the night before. Typically, Milwaukee is always 75% or so democratic… so that would put 127K of those 169K going to Biden, which, when I look at the numbers looks about right, making him overtake President Trump, seemingly out of the blue. But is how they counted the absentee ballots, due to the amount of them, they didn’t have time to get it all done in late evening. They figured it would take until 4 am or so to get done and report. 😞

    1. Odd that they had a huge uptick in % of people voting. They used same day registration – that is how NH vote was stolen last election. They allowed whoever to walk in and register. I am not buying this as valid. Registration should be complete at least 2 weeks prior to an election and all voting should be day of election until a very robust, corrupt-proof system is in place.

      2. An honest vote for any office is a great keystone of our republic. It is not a burden to make people produce identification. We in the USA do this all the time for lesser transactions. However, the Left is very good at wailing loudly and crying about how much of an imposition it is to have their voters follow certain rules to maintain the honesty of the process. Such histrionics!….. Our soldiers have given so much of themselves for over 200 years to protect this republic. Asking people to follow certain rules to produce an honest result is a very small thing compared to what they have sacrificed…..My son visited Gettysberg, PA, over the weekend. This hard fought battle produced the worst casualties of our Civil War. The amputations and bodies were 2 stories high and the stench was noticeable as far away as Harrisburg. I really laugh (with gallows humor) when the Democrats cry about very simple (and easy to follow) “restrictions” on voting. Can we citizens not do just a tiny bit to honor the sacred right awarded us by our solders’ very lives to vote in an honest election? However, the current D party want the whole system to be easy to penetrate because, as Charlie noted, fraud is part of their playbook.

  16. From where we sit we see the United States as a predominantly left of center culture which seems to be a better explanation than the points you have stated. Even if these things that you say were to be true & the current president were to bring these issues to court he will more than likely lose thrusting the American nation into anarchy. The majority of those who have voted against the current president believe him to be the very face of evil, a liar, a criminal, misogynist, rapist, dictator etc. etc.They may or may not like the former vice-president but they see him to be much more balanced in demeanor with values more in line with their own. Of those who have voted for the current president the reasoning seems a bit more mixed. Some believe him to be champion of American values whereas others were simply voting against the former vice-president. or simply attempting to slow the the growing left of center majority. In short it was merely a viciously bitter election from both sides that have very different views of what it means to be an American & how best to bring their views completion. The American electorate has been moving more left of center for decades, not only in politic but also just socially. This leaves those who are right of center as well as social conservatives in a rather difficult position. Conform or be marginalised. Political leaders & political parties are often the symptoms of moral decay within a society rather than being the causes of it. For example Hitler was the culmination of deep moral & spiritual decay within the germanies as was Rasputin( whom is a distant relative of Putin), Lenin, & Stalin were to Russia, etc etc. Satan is an accuser by nature, a lawyer by trade, & a judge by malicious deed. It is no surprise to see this in people who are in the halls of power either by authority or influence. If one wishes to reclaim his nation for the Kingdom of God it must first be done through much prayer & sacrifice, then through holy christian example, & finally through dialogue, planning, & deed. I do not envy your position, but regardless of whatever discrepancies or possible fraudulent activities were made present in the U.S. general election or ensuing court battles ahead we still believe the general will of the American was obtained fairly through their respective votes. Unfortunately the American people however will remain hopelessly divided for the foreseeable future with ever deepening intensity. This can only be remedied through an external means, one that forcibly causes a need for unity. Until such time there will be none.

One must pray for the will of Christ which is no abortion, no euthanasia, and so much more. If you accept these great sins then Christ cannot hear and answer your prayers. Read closely what R Sey Mourre- is saying. He fully believes that most of America finds themselves reflected in the platform of Joe Biden, which is anti-Christian and anti-Catholic. I do not believe this is so. I still believe that at least 50 per cent see the truth of the socialist / communist nightmare that is being offered to the USA by the (former) Democratic party which is now a fully communist party.

    4. R. SÈY MOÜRRE-TISSOT DE MÉROVINGIEN Joe Biden and his son abused the position of the Vice Presidency to make millions and millions of dollars for their family from mega investments from numerous other countries. They have often worked against U.S. interests. This is treason! I wonder what Joe Biden had to promise in order to obtain investment funds and high level (well paid)management positions for his inept son in those investment corporations (for which Hunter Biden was in NO way the least bit qualified. Everyone knows this. It is a scandal. There are tapes and emails from a business partner (Tony Bobulinski) which will do much to prove this but the corrupt mainstream media did all it could to to hide it before the election. See interview here with Tucker Carlson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zLfBRgeFFo
      …. When you look at the U.S., you see what you want because, as a Canadian, you are mostly leftist yourself…..Regardless of Trump’s flaws, he has never ever worked against U.S. national interests, unlike Quid Pro Quo Joe Biden …. Most Canadians hate Trump because he is a nationalist and, also, because he has a very abrasive NY street fighter personality. Also, he challenges the leftists on many matters which are not forgone conclusions (ie, that “climate change” is going to destroy the planet) But, many of the current mystics, including Father Michel Rodrigue of Quebec and Sondra Abrahams of the USA say that we are very lucky to have Trump because he is the only one holding off the New World Order and One World Government which is all part of Lucifer’s plan to control the masses of this planet. They both say that Jesus Christ has told them this. Your Trudeau seems to be on board with this United Nations and New World Order plan. In the USA, we are still fighting against anti-Catholic plans made by the elite. You Canadians have mostly already accepted all their plans…… which means that you have swallowed the whole enchilada of lies meant to enslave you into a anti-God nightmare of tyranny and totalitarian control which is being presented to you as a great good for mankind.
      I would rather still be fighting to hold off this satanic nightmare than to sit with my eyes and mind closed to the fact that there are plans in motion that will take away all of our God-given liberties. You say that Trump has all kinds of phobias and many -isms and -ists. Frankly, this is the way the entire left attacks anyone who does not agree with them. There is no honest debate. Just lots of insults thrown anyone who dares to question the U.N’s plans, the Paris Accord, abortion, euthanasia, every questionable vaccination, open boarders and all the rest of the platform……Just remember that when the anti-Christ comes on the scene, he will be charismatic and charming. He will appear to have the answer to every one of this world’s problems. He will sing sweet music to the masses. The Great Deceiver will not be abrasive but he will give you what seems like the easy road to Utopia on earth. Only after you have given away all your liberties (including the right to worship Christ as you please), only then may you realize that you have been cooperating with Evil……Donald Trump openly says that the U.S. is one nation under God. He fights for the unborn and against infanticide which is clearly a Catholic teaching. He allows and even asks people to pray over him in the name of Jesus Christ. This abrasive and flawed man just appointed a Catholic to the Supreme Court. Donald Trump, who does not claim to be Catholic, acts more like a Catholic than Joseph Biden who utters the words “I am a Catholic” but whose political platform is totally anti-Catholic. God often reveals himself in contradictions….. We require a warrior at this time in U.S. history. Just like General George Patton, Trump’s words are harsh, but he has won many battles in spite of the odds against him. He has tried to protect and bolster this U.S. republic whose laws are based on Judeo-Christian principles…. Right now the battle is manifesting itself in the world as a political one, but it is really a spiritual battle. As always, God tends to use the most unlikely people to accomplish His will. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano is praying that President Donald Trump will succeed in holding off the wolves, as are many of the citizens of this country. See this article:

      3. My dear Lady in Christ, Please forgive me for using the term “we” to an American English speaking group, though it is within my juridical right to do so. Normally the notifications option is off that I may not be tempted to directly engage in the commentary. My thoughts are always directed toward that which is written in the article. This prevents unnecessary misunderstandings that are rarely resolved through a “comment section”, a lesson learned long ago in the early days mass internet exposure. In light of the U.S. Election I have opted to open the notifications that I may not to be so distant from those who are hurting after they have placed much effort & hope in a bitter battle over the direction of their nation. I am not a Canadian nor do I support those whom Pope Leo would consider enemies of God let alone things that go against the Magisterium. I am a catholic royalist without a state who is “persona non grata” in each & every of the former western nations including your own. When dealing with politicians I must be cordial without accusing, rather offering to them an avenue to escape from their sinful misdeeds much as a friend may attempt to guide someone indignant & rebellious who is on the road to perdition. One can not destroy the Kingdom of Man/Satan by using the ways & speech of the Father of Lies. This will only alienate your allies & quell the Sprit of God. After reading through many of the articles written here & now skimming through the comments below them I am not seeing “take the next step & be a sign of hope”, I am seeing political vitriol taking over which looks to be no different than what I see in the secular world. Two centuries ago members of our House lost their heads by involvement in a war that would ultimately cost them their own nation through a British/ Masonic backed revolt & successive violent purge afterwards so that your nation may be born, only to find your nation becoming the utopic version of the one they created over the blood soaked ashes of the eldest daughter of the Church. The Empire of Rome was not converted through politic, it was converted through much prayer & sacrifice, then through holy Christian example, & finally through dialogue, planning, & deed. We are fastly approaching the third world war & rise of Antichrist Minor as well as a blood filled martyrdom because we have all have forgotten these things. There is no way to through a turbulent stormy sea except steering towards it or the ship will capsize & sink killing all aboard. Fears, emotions, or accusations will only embolden your adversaries & disenfranchise your friends which is how your President his re-election. To divide and conquer your political opponents it must be done in graceful demeaner that does not means compromising beliefs but it does mean doing so in righteous behaviour & speech with shrewd understanding & approach. For example if your your President did not alienate President Bush & the late Senator McCain, or sidestep Senator Cruz they would have been the strongest allies which is what was needed. Your President did deliver his party to a victory of sorts & gave them a path to obtaining full control of your legislature in two years as well as tilting your Judiciary into a different direction, forcing the speaker of the House of Representatives to possibly lose her position. It is unlikely Vice President Biden will serve two terms in office. If your political party wishes to reclaim 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue they will need to request the Florida Governor to be the man to do so.

        1. R. Sey, After reading your commentary, I am assuming that you would gracefully allow this election to be stolen by fraud in order to be cordial to those who have lied, cheated, and more for a very, very long time.

          You point to the obvious fact the Donald Trump is not a politician. He and former Pres. G. Bush are not friendly, nor was he friendly with John McCain. This is really of no concern to the average person who supports a Trump presidency. The people who desire that Trump be president for a second term want to thwart an extreme socialist, anti-God and anti-Catholic agenda. Trump seems to be the only man willing to take on this very difficult task. The Democratic party has shown it will use every dirty and false scenario to stop anyone who stands in their path to implementing this agenda. I know of no U.S. politician who would be willing to take one blow after another.

          Where you see vitriol, I see righteous anger over an intolerable situation in a democratic republic. Charlie has explained how this theft of the vote was done and I expect that a tremendous amount of fraud will be exposed over the coming weeks.

          I think that all on this board are well aware that Moscow and Beijing and the rest of the world, including many enemies, are watching closely. There are many things that may occur in the future, including another World War. However, a nation cannot stop that or anything else that is undesirable by putting a man such as Joe Biden in the Presidency. He has shown that he will sell the interests of the USA for his own personal gain. This is certainly not a man who would be effective as president because he has left himself exposed to blackmail by those countries who know what he has done. Therefore, he is the absolute worse choice for president of this country.

          As far as Biden’s claim to be Catholic, he votes for every anti-Catholic policy on the Democrat’s platform. He does not walk the walk, but he talks with a smile and a bit of a silver tongue. Joe Biden has no integrity and he is surely in danger of having a very darkened soul due to his anti-Catholic stance. If you look at his almost 50 year record, he has not lead the nation at all. He has simply come along for the ride in order to go as far as he could go up the political ladder. He stated in his 20’s that he would become senator and then president one day. That is his goal. To be in the history books.

          Joe Biden is a feeble, empty suit set up the the Democratic establishment to be their puppet until they can remove him from office for all sorts of problems due his increasing age. Old time Democrats who do not study the platform think he is a centrist because he has been around so very long. By the way, he also likes to touch children in odd, disturbing ways which leads me to believe that there is something perverse going on in his mind.

          With continued prayer and trust, the truth will likely come out. Certainly Jesus Christ would prefer truth over a tragically successful conspiracy to steal an election by a man who pretends to be what he is not, much like Judas who sold his dear friend for several pieces of silver.

          1. For many years I have sought for the Americans to be a people & nation to be instrumental in the restoration of Christendom. This clearly is not to be so, Instead it has become farther & farther away from Christ. It has become Sodom & Gommorah. Not all of those who voted for President Trump did so for same reasons as you have & may not even espouse judeo-christian values. They may have simply been republican faithful or democrats who felt their own party was going too far left or any other number of reasons. The same is true for those who voted for the former Vice-president. In the case of Catholics, those who are pro-life voted overwhelmingly for President Trump, but the others did not. If the United States or any of the other former western nations truly espoused Judeo-Christian values the societies in which live would look very different than they do presently. For a kingdom to be holy it must first begin with the king being holy because he represents God which will reflect in the people. In a republic it must begin with the people themselves because it is they who represent God which in turn will reflect in their chosen leaders. This is why when His Most Christian Majesty Louis XVI failed to publically consecrate the Kingdom of France & Navarre to the Most Sacred Heart that judgement fell upon France & the whole of Europe through the Revolt of 1789 with all of the successive chain of events through to the present day. This is also why currently the Door of Mercy is now giving way to the Door of Divine Chastisement. The people have no one to consecrate them & they are refusing to consecrate themselves.

            2. The United States was reconsecrated to the Blessed Virgin on May 1, 2020 at the Shrine of the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Washington D.C. Many of us have also done a personal consecration to the Blessed Virgin through the St. Louis de Montefort prayers. So there has been consecration.

              As far as the election goes, Christians cannot simply capitulate to an anti-God agenda. It is true that no one can know each and every intention of the people in the voting booth but the stark contrast between the two political agendas seems to indicate to me that the choice (for Christians) was that one platform had to be rejected; that is, the one that leads us to a godless place and loss of our freedoms. At this time the outcome of the presidential election is still unknown. However, the evidence of fraud is there. I agree with Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano’s recent letters to the President and to American people of good will .

              The United States is not monolithic. The rural areas are much different than the big cities. The interests and values of one are not necessarily the same as the other.
              I believe that there are more prayer warriors her than you realize. Because they are the quieter group, they are not noticed as much. However, I regularly run into prayerful people. Christ and Our Blessed Mother just seem to bring us together.

              Regardless of what happens this year or in the coming years, Christ will prevail and Light will defeat Darkness.

          1. I think that everyone on this board is on the same journey, in search of the True Path, and doing their very best to be worthy of the promises of Christ. You did not say to whom you were addressing your question. If you were speaking to me, no, I am not a religious. I am a teacher. I simply cannot tolerate what I believe to be falsehood. So I join the debate…..For some reason I thought R. Sey was French Canadian, but his internet name is taken from French history. He takes part in tweeting under this name and the tweets are shown as coming from Nantes, France, but this is probably part of his alias because it does relate back to the historical name he uses. He has posted here several other times and seems to know his history well…….Many of us in the U.S. are disgusted with all the lies and deceit. None of us thought we would see this happen so brazenly in the United States. I think that R.Sey is / was upper class European and does not really know the average American. But I am just guessing because of the way he phrases his English responses…… I do not know how one can become persona non grata in all the Western countries. That was a stunning statement.

          1. MP , R Sey is of the opinion that our current pope is a holy man and on the path to sainthood. While I do not know how Francis’ life will develop in the future, he is currently not following the teachings of the Catholic Church so I do not how this raises him up at this moment in time….R Sey originally said that regardless of any possible fraud, he thought the vote was as it should be because “we” (whoever that is) see the U.S. as left of center and that he felt the American people saw Joe Biden as more in line with their belief system. He has softened his approach in comments because of a spirited debate, but I do not think his initial comments here were meant to console us. I certainly was not consoled. And contrary to his assertion that there has been no consecration in the USA, U.S. bishops did consecrate the USA to Our Blessed Mother on May 1, 2020. I will accept prayers of good will from men of good will for the U.S. and the world. However, there is no man of good will that courteously accepts lies and fraud in government of a great nation, and most certainly not in a very close election whose parties delineate such starkly different platforms. You know, honest debate clarifies positions and often brings enlightenment. That has been a strength of our country until now..

            1. R. Sey, you have rubbed a lot of people here the wrong way. I must admit, that often includes me. You pop by sometimes with some mystical obscurantism that is obviously intended to be enigmatic – so you don’t speak plainly what you mean, deliberately (I think) trying to foster an air of mystery. You speak condescendingly, even dismissively, to almost everyone here, treating them as if they are your subjects-in-waiting.

              You say you have the juridical right to use the royal “we” when addressing us little folks, while noting you believe in monarchy. Okay, in traditional monarchies the people who are entitled to use the royal “we” are the king and the queen. So do you believe yourself to be a king?

              I have my own thoughts on that. I well know that the House of Merovingien has, for centuries, maintained that both the prophesied Great Monarch and the actual Antichrist will come from their line. I have thought for some time that you believe yourself to be the Great Monarch and are waiting for the time when the rest of us will see it.

              Couple of problems, though. In God’s economy, certainly there is some pomp and circumstance involved with an established royal line. But when a new line is being established, there is none. It is the service and fidelity of, usually, some lowly character that elevates him to be the first king of the line. Actually, the pomp and circumstance, the portentious mysticism usually signals the beginning of the degeneration of the line. So, could you be what you seem to be hinting at? I suppose…God often works in surprising and novel ways. But I seriously doubt it. Your political and geo-political analytical skills are, to be generous, pedestrian. Perhaps you are more clever than you come across, but are hindered by the need to always be portentious and blow up clouds of mystical obscurantism.

              That quasi-mystical type of post is finished here. If you want to speak, speak plainly – and treat everyone here as a friend and equal. I have given instructions to the moderators to stop clearing the ethereal stuff. The times before us are deadly serious, requiring serious contemplation and serious action.

              If you are the Great Monarch, well, I will risk your royal displeasure. But until God discloses such a thing, at this site, we will treat each other with mutual respect.

              1. Charlie I have never claimed or implied such things, this is your own mistaken presumption because of my name, so be it. I personally do not believe in those two prophecies though I do believe a rather ordinary king of the House of Capet will arise one day to partially fill the role. The same I can say in reference to you, as it has always appeared on the surface to me on your former site that you yourself were to be the political regent to help guide your nation out of the turmoil after the fall of a certain unmentioned reckless impure man who usurp your country though you have never stated such or even implied such a thing. Nonetheless that it is how it appeared to me. Even still I have always believed your visions to be valid even if the timing is a little off. You state that I speak condescendingly, even dismissively, to almost everyone here, treating them as if they are my subjects-in-waiting. I have always felt the same of you & a few others toward me, though unlike your belief toward me I presumed that was never yours or anyone else’s intent. I presumed though seemingly in error that we all come from very different places & backgrounds who speak & use the English language quite differently which would give allowance for misunderstandings. I am the first to admit that my political and geo-political analytical skills are, to be generous, pedestrian at best. Then again they are not supposed to be anything greater as this is not my expertise. I have a simple faith & trust that most people are not of ill will when misunderstandings arise. Charlie I wish I can say the same of you, because in your eyes I am nothing more than someone who speaks condescendingly, even dismissively, to almost everyone here, treating them as if they are my subjects-in-waiting who rubs people the wrong way. This is rather unfortunate since I do my best to be concise & clear yet am most unable to convey such to you or anyone else here.

                  1. Charlie, I have taken the time to read through some of what is written below a few of the many articles you have placed on this website of yours to see how your commenters view & understand the world around them as well as how they respond so as to better compare this to my own views & understandings. I do admit it was long, slightly exhausting, & somewhat confusing linguistically in tone, manner, & usage. What I draw in conclusion is we speak far more differently from one another much much more than I initially realised. I have also failed to realise that our understandings of the Faith is by no means similar nor (though not as often discussed) is our understanding of mystical or eschatological topics which is very present among the comments though not in the articles themselves.. From these alone I can see how I am not able to come across more effectively as it did not occur to me that we understand such things from greatly different perspectives. That being said to avoid further conflict as well as any unintentional soreness or friction with all of you it seems best to part ways. It is not truly possible contextually for anyone here to “get me” and most importantly for me to not be able to “get you” as differences in our understandings, mannerisms, tone, & speech are simply much too vast. Thank you

      5. Not every Canadian dislikes Trump, I & other people I know like him, for preventing the North American economy from collapsing, and he respects God. Most Canadians are like sheep that are set in their ways resisting change preferring to turn a blind eye to bad things. When the Liberal party in Canada was mostly made up of Christians they provided a valuable social safety net that worked with Christianity, as the Christian base of the Liberal party eroded away, it’s ethics & morality also eroded away into sin & evil. It’s the same phenomenon we see in the Church & religious orders. It would seem conservative people are a little harder to mislead & corrupt, as they tend to think for themselves instead of the group mentality that Liberals have.

        I noticed as well, that the anti-God & anti-Christian people are adored as celebrities & heroes, I guess the beasts & antichrists won’t be ugly & scary physical monsters, but only monstrous in mind & soul. Sin & evil = stupidity, and there’s a incredible amount of stupid in the world.

Maybe you should read this article about Poland https://www.crisismagazine.com/2020/poland-is-falling before commenting on President Trump. He is not Hitler, or Putin, or Stalin or Mao. And you sure as heck left out the Chinese in all of this. Biden is anathema. He is responsible for 60 million baby deaths in our country. The one world Davos, Switzerland government cabal is the Democrat Party. Their is NO free speech, NO freedom of religion, NO other way of thinking aloud. (Sounds like the Communist Chinese to me.) The wall on the Southern border has mitigated our HUGE human trafficking problem and that includes sex trafficking of children. For the Democrats, there are NO borders which means all the problems of Central and South America import here. With the DEFUND THE POLICE mantra our streets will become totally unsafe as has been demonstrated in New York City under DiBlasio, a stated Communist. NO ONE, I REPEAT, NO ONE IS SAFE TRAVELING OR VISITING NYC. The city’s policy is to release offenders as arrested producing the result of repeated offender being arrested and released. These include assaults, thefts, rapes. Destruction of property is considered a minor offense. These policies are repeated in CA, PA and other Democrat run cities. Look up ANTFA, a reincarnation of the 1960’s Red Guard. BTW, when Trump was criticized by that brain dead new Cardinal of Washington DC, his family was well aware of Saint JPII’s and Benedict’s involvement in the destruction of the communist hold on Eastern Europe. Trump’s older children’s grandparents are from Czechoslovakia and his wife is from Slovenia. Cardinal Wilton Gregory did not give the Trumps the same generous of spirit he gives his parishioner, Nancy Pelosi, who supports abortion and infanticide. Pelosi goes to “Mass” at his resident church when in DC. The word sin is not allowed in comments at the New York Times. The new mantra in this country is this: Evil is the good and good is evil.

                The commonwealth of PA has a lot of Pennslyvannia License Plates driving within nYc. Why? In the late 1990’s, PA Dot known as Penndot allowed private companies to register vehicles from their private location. Thousands of people registered their cars in Pennsylvannia to save on NYS car insurance.

                A resulting Identity Fraud industry was born and lucrative copy cat (fake) PenDot car stickers abounded. I surmise, a lot of the ‘ballots’ result from these ‘registerations’.

                Question. How can a NY resident use their NY address to register their car? They don’t. Pennsylvannia allows them to register at the ‘store’ they purchased… aka a bodega, corner store or such.

                Add to this Motor Vehicle Fraud: nYs Gov. Cuomo signed legislation allowing undocumented people to obtain a nYs Drivers License. Hordes flocked to NYS to get thier authorized, legal, government document.

                NYS DMV automatically registers new license applicants to VOTE. The dmv sends the information to the County for NEW Voter registeration. Neither the State nor the County verify if the persons is a citizen.

  19. Actually, I think Trump may have won the popular vote as much as 55% to 45%, and of course he spent a huge amount of effort to raise participation. I think he did that in order to stress the systems the Democrats have developed to steal elections, resulting in them having to do things like stop counting and find vote collections that are 100% for Biden. In other words, Trump’s actions and the overall vote for him pushed the Democrats so hard that their previously secretive methods were forced out into the open.

    It appears that he may have appointed Rudy Giuliani (“America’s Mayor” trusted by large numbers of people) to lead the fight to expose this and much more. Giuliani’s speech earlier in this afternoon was fiery and pulled no punches. Neither Trump nor Giuliani will roll over.

    Even with my belief that Trump won 55% to 45%, I still find myself disappointed and sad that 45% of We the People could vote for Biden, as far as I can tell largely because Trump posts mean tweets. It’s pathetic.

    Trump has his work cut out for him to wake another 40% of us. In thinking about the situation, though, I think if you pull on all of the little voter fraud threads that are now showing themselves in so many states, and you keep pulling, what will fall into your lap may be so horrific that you will wake up fast.

      They might, for a time, but one way or another justices catches up to them.

      I think that Donald Trump’s people have known for a very long time that cheating happens in elections, and that few have been willing to do anything about it. The thing is, in a “law and order” country, those who are dedicated to righting the wrongs need to have good, solid evidence to prove their case. To an extent, it’s also important that the voting public be awakened to the reality of election cheating.

      I woke up this morning feeling not dismayed but patient, calm, and curious to see how it plays out.

What a difference on those supplements!!! I have asthma and I’m sure copd (smoked since 12!😫) quit about 6 or 7 yrs ago…so these bugs hit my weakest point lungs!!! Ugh! Just amazing 🥳

        2. Linda and LittleLight, I’m so glad to hear you both have done so well! Now I want to recommend again that you get your doctor to test your Vitamin D3 level every 3-4 months and then take D3 supplements to get your blood level of D3 up above at least 40 and preferably to 60-80. Having that level that high may mean that you simply stop getting sick in the first place. Combined with some liposomal Vitamin C, Quercetin and zinc daily, and you should not get ill with the standard viruses any more. I had a brief bout of an intestinal virus last spring, but other than that, it’s been years since I had a significant viral illness. It seems to me that D3 is the keystone for our immune systems, so keep it up over the years ahead. 🙂

            2. LL, totally get it. For me, if I’m working with an assigned doctor (thank you, Obamacare!), I generally feel our relationship is to some degree adversarial. That’s a terrible thing to say, but most docs like to follow the line, and our system encourages that in many ways.

              Recently, a nurse taking care of my mother identified that my mother now has high blood pressure (she never did before but age takes its toll). The nurse wanted to put my mother on a BP med. I went and looked around and came up with Olive Leaf Extract and Garlic capsules. When I started my mother on those, her BP came down below the danger level. The nurse did not ask me what I had done. So many medical people are incurious.

                On the bright side, one of my kiddos had migraines that we thought was related to eye strain. The eye surgeon was able to treat the strain with exercises, but the headaches still persisted. The neurologist prescribed Migrelief–and that stuff worked miraculously. It is a nutritional supplement: Magnesium, Feverfew and Riboflavin. This is very encouraging. I am so grateful!

                1. LL, if the Left gets control of our government again (which I am optimistic now that they will not), look for your doctor to be told that he must ask his patients if they have a gun in their house (they will match by other databases). Then later they will be required to tell their patients who have guns that they are no longer allowed to treat the family because having a gun in the house is too dangerous, and that they must take their gun to the police and get a certificate evidencing the turn-in, so that they can get medical treatment. I’ve always thought that was one of the purposes of ObamaCare. People will do anything for a child who is ill. One more way to enslave people.

                    In all this I have to say my pediatrician is also a healer. She does not fully agree with these politics I get a deep sense. I asked her about the nanoparticles in the covid vax and she turned to me with deep concern and said one thing: “It’s never been tested on children.”

                1. The system crushes curiosity out of them in two ways, by screwing down on them more and more each year, and by teaching them a kind of arrogance, that nobody without an MD after their name can understand how to really *heal* people. But not all doctors are healers and many healers are not doctors. Doctors know a lot about their profession, but learning to be a healer is something very different. Doctors who later become healers are among the best of the best, but our current system militates *against* attempts by doctors to become healers, and many never make the jump, and more unfortunately, many of those never realize they didn’t.

            1. Texas, what were your and your husband’s actual readings most recently. I’m trying to calibrate your comments. Doctors will say if you’re anywhere from 30 to what 60? you’re “optimal” and if over 60, “too high” but the actual minimum is 40-50 and optimal is 60-80. Some people have readings over 100 which tends to freak out standard doctors, but generally that’s ok, although I would let such readings decline by stopping supplementation for a couple weeks and then lowering the maintenance dose a little bit to keep the future readings 60-80. So if you don’t mind, could you tell me your actual readings? Are you saying your readings are optimal by your doctor’s comments or by my definition?

              1. Steve, thank you for giving me the chance to clarify my lab results of Vit D3. A month ago my husband’s D3 reading was 53ng/mL. Mine was 153ng/mL. Yes, mine is over the range for optimal 60 to 80. However, I am not worried in the least bit that my result is at 153. When I got this result, I did cut back a little, but I did not completely stop as I am not concerned. I feel great. My husband is now taking the NAC, trying to get an optimal reading of 60 to 80. He has comorbitities and is 66 years old so it would be beneficial to do this. (NAC has made the difference for me for raising my D3 levels.) Dr. Mercola’s article of today quotes, “One study found your risk of developing a severe case of, and dying from, COVID-19 virtually disappears once your vitamin D level gets above 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L).” (I post this for the benefit of ASOH readers.)

                I’ve read a n=1 type, small book written by Jeff Bowles called, ” The Miraculous Cure for and Prevention of All Disease, What Doctors Never Learned.” (It’s about vitamin D3). It’s taught me not to be afraid of doing what I think is good for my particular health. Again, I’m not recommending this book for anybody except to expand their concept regarding supplements and helping one’s own health. Pharmaceuticals are not always the answer. Big Pharma wants you to think that the only way to keep healthy is to take or inject a drug. Not so, imho.

                1. Texas, a D3 of 153 is the highest I have ever seen, world record! It would be good to get it down below 100 slowly over the next several weeks. If you are not already doing so, you also need to take Vitamin K2 and magnesium, either in your diet or by supplement so that your system doesn’t get unbalanced. Move slowly down on your D3 supplements. My guess is that 5,000 IUs per day is sufficient for you, but if you’re very efficient with D3, you can drop to one every other day and still be fine. 🙂

                  Given your likely age, you might ask your doctor to do a parathyroid panel and see if there is an issue there. If I remember correctly, the parathyroid can get unbalanced and help produce a high serum D3 level. If you’re not taking much D3 and still getting a high reading, it’s worth a check. Several years ago, when I had a reading of 124 for D3, my doctor at the time focused on the parathryoid. Fortunately, nothing came of it for me.

                  EDIT for Texas: I reread a previous post of yours and saw the D3 went up due to you taking NAC. This makes me inclined to take back the info about the parathyroid. It certainly seems that the NAC really helped. Just get your D3 level down over time to less than 100 – you get to save some money!

      2. Lil, Thank you for your concern. My dad worked briefly in Australia back in the 1950’s. He delivered 3 Budd Diesel Railcars to Port Augusta. Your country had a celebration a few years back of their railroad industry. A group in Port Augusta rescued one of the cars, refurbished it and it is now in a museum. My dad loved your country. He came home with Aussy boots, cowboy hats and shorts. Back in the 1950’s men still wore long pants to ball games and even to mow the lawn. My mom died ever time he donned his Aussy outfit to mow. Terrible stories on the news of your Wuhan virus restrictions. One was a pregnant woman who was not allowed to sit on a park bench to rest through her walk. Have the restrictions lifted somewhat? I have been all over with a mask and gel. We even flew in July to another state to see family. There are therapies that work, especially at early diagnosis. My friend’s daughter and grandchildren reside in Australia and she doesn’t know when she will be able to see them again. In view of what the courts did to Cardinal Pell, it seems to me that Australia is on its was to a totalitarian state like the USA. Yep China will pounce and Joe Biden and his family have taken huge bribes from them. See Hunter Biden on the net if you can. This story was surpassed by the press here but it is true. We are in deep trouble. Fully expect them to us euthanasia as a means of population control now that they used their authority in Democrat governor run states during the virus. They denied them treatment and let them die in bed in their nursing homes. This was particularly evident in PA, NY and NJ. This was done even as President Trump provided additional support with hospital beds and equipment. It is a scandal. The PA state government medical Director literally took her(actually a him in drag – no kidding) mother out of her facility and placed her in a hotel room immediately before issuing the directive to keep the diagnosed positive elderly in their nursing homes denying them treatment. They were denied being treated as patients. Their rights under the Constitution and as citizens denied. But I go on. Trump is a hero to so many of us and we are not blind to his flaws but he loves our country, he loves the Constitution.

        2. Hi Joanne1950
          Australia for the most part has come out of it relatively unscathed. I live on the West Coast and we had little/no community transmission since April. Most of our cases came from cruise ships, international travellers and foreign shipping crew. Yet despite all that, we have the same social distancing restrictions as the rest of the country. Even our churches have the same restrictions as you do in the USA. Crazy and very unscientific.

          Most of the cases that you cited come from Victoria. If you think your Democrat mayors and governors are stupid or corrupt, the Victorian government takes it to a whole level of incompetency. If you are interested, then I suggest you listen to Sky News Australia and particularly Peta Credlin. She has recently posted a show on Youtube about the whole scandal. The interesting thing about Victoria is that its Labor Government signed the Silk Road deal with China before this virus hit. This is despite other states and or federal government banning such arrangements.

          I think when all the dust settles we will see the influence of China in all of this chaos. It suits their economic and political objectives too well to be mere coincidence. But here I go, talking conspiracy theories.

          Thank you for your Dad’s memories of Port Augusta. Sadly the car industry in Australia has died.

          It bewilders me when people talk about the increasing number of cases in the US and Europe, but strangely we never hear how many deaths there are. This tells me that the virus is not as dangerous as it originally was. Don’t get me wrong, prudent measures should be taken and especially for our vulnerable communities. But we now have treatments and possibly vaccines (although we have not been successful for other corona viruses in the past; maybe there is method to this particular virus’ release. Yes I said it, Mark Levin!). From the virus’ perspective it has appeared to have adapted to its “new” human host so that is not as lethal as it previously was. If I am wrong about the fatality of the second and third waves, then I am happy to stand corrected. But the “cure” of lockdowns will have devastating effects on people’s lives for years to come.

          Trying to stay calm and patient in all of this. The fact that my spirit is unsettled either tells me that I don’t trust God enough (pray for me and others in the same situation) or something else in coming. Whatever it is, lets follow Charlie’s mantra of Acknowledging God…

          God bless and keep us all.

          1. Lil, same with increase cases not deaths. Scare tactics. With 50 states there are 50 different rules for churches. In CA they are being Orwellian. In PA where I live been back to Mass as usual including daily Mass offered. They spray disinfectant in between Mass and we wear masks. But there are a number of exposed noses lately as people suspect a level of manufactured fear. Mass is still offered on line and the numbers in attendance is stable but not what it use to be. My cousin, his wife and 5 in his office recently were diagnosed positive but they had symptoms for exactly one day and then spent the next 13 days in quarantine. BTW 4 of them are in their 70’s, one recently had a heart attack and one has other medical issues. My point is the virus only made them feel ill for a very short time. Makes you wonder doesn’t it? I’m in agreement to all your points about China. I was surprised at your Mark Levin comment. Didn’t know you could view his show down under. A small point-my dad was an engineer of diesel railroad “cars” aka railcars re: the Tea and Sugar Route Australia. My mistake for not making it more clear.

            1. Thanks, Charlie. I just hate the ingratitude of our rulers, scurrying to curry favour with the “betters”, because of insecurity. That was always the curse of Ireland, at least since the Anglo-Norman invasion in 1169. The Australians had something similar, and used to refer to the “cultural cringe” they had in relation to the U.K.

              I sometimes – no, many times – don’t actually feel “European”, as I seem to have so little in common with the “EU” mentality. They actually treat us (and Eastern Europe) as irrelevant. I know this from working with “EU” institutions in my job. Yet, how many Irish soldiers lie in European graves to save them from totalitarianism, of one form or another – largely stemming from one particular country, but let’s not mention that!

              Then I go on something like the Chartres Pilgrimage every year (not this one and, God help us, probably not next either 😒) with thousands of European Catholics giving public witness, so many young, and I repent of my cynicism. That is our true future – as it was our past.

How much are the American people in the USA willing to sacrifice for their liberty. So far, not much. Most of the “young adults” here don’t even know of 9/11 let alone the sacrifice of their grandparents and great grandparents in WW2. The little know it alls were never taught any of it. And that of course was the plan. My grandmother and grand aunts were all from Ireland and about 12 years ago I would comment on a Irish on line newspaper. Couldn’t believe what was written on abortion and the anti Jewish sentiment stated in response to its articles. I remember thinking back then that Ireland was no longer the Ireland of my grandmother. Time to go underground. Time for those lighted candles in Irish windows signaling a Mass. Time to go back to those hedge row schools. The left here will go out of their way to close down or control what is taught in our Catholic and Christian schools now. I can’t believe how dumb voters are, how uninformed they are.

But the weather changed at just the right time and gave them an advantage. Our Lady of Victory is honored in October for that resounding and improbably victory.

  24. Charlie,

    I share my absolute frustration, anger, disappointment, and the lack of bold pushback from any solid conservative coalition against the standard techniques used by dems and the liberal base since…. Forever!! While I think it would be immensely difficult to effectively combat the left lying machine, you would sure think that especially in today’s modern age, a conservative or the Republican party could anticipate previous tactics proven to be quite effective by the left during Trump’s presidency. Was there no way to institute stronger safeguards against electronic voter manipulation, digital censoring, and brazen video and media lies?

    The only leading conservative figure to show their guts was the President the United States, Donald J. Trump. He has and was fearless during the last 3 1/2 years and was a true warrior on the campaign trail giving everything he had for God, Country and the American way of life. It was unbelievable to see the crowds cheering in all types of weather and any time of night. He stood up and really did make you proud to be an American.

    Furthermore, I think the reason the polls/pundits did not care how wildly their predictions were regarding a Biden win, was that they never tried to portray reality anyway. Just kept on drumming into the fickle independents and or big city republicans the election was a foregone conclusion.
    I find it really hard to take when the left, is the new proud cheerleading squad for the new American way. As Joe said “I am a president for all of us.” That is harder to accept than the cheerleading squad comment. Quite frankly, I cannot think of one thing Biden and his wolves will actually do that could be considered as a positive for the American people. Only negatives or death.

    Charlie, I really hope you are on the money with your 60-40 chances for Trump to pull this off. If not, our prayers and sufferings must increase even more to guide us through the storm while helping others.

    A last thought, I would like to quote my mom’s favorite verse from St. Paul. From Timothy 2. Paul states “I have competed well, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith”. Not adding or trying to reinterpret St. Paul, but I hope we would all like to be able to say: that we have competed well, that we finished this race, and that we have kept the faith.

    1. My polling methodology is not nearly as sophisticated as others, so there I was on election morn’ crunching through granite, squinting at the sky and sniffing the wind. Nothing elegant about it either, but the still voice let me know I was still in the desert. To the East, the park that Trump filled up to overflowing the last go round. Over my shoulder, somewhere in a crusty downtown lot, the patch of pavement where Biden kicked off his campaign bus tour. Not a single soul showed up! Oh, there was that stupid marijuana issue on the ballot this go round. No telling who showed up simply for that.

      Wouldn’t seem fair to speak of election shenanigans without giving a full account of my own high-spirited mischief, so we’ll leave it at that. Interesting word, shenanigans. Of Irish origins by my reckoning. “Sionnachuighim,” meaning “I play the fox.”

      And if there was ever someone on the stage right now that can deal smartly and cunningly with cunning people. that’s Trump. Frankly, I don’t know what the left was thinking. Had I seen a fox out there Tuesday morning, I’d tell you it’s for certain. As it is, I say 3-2 in Trump’s favor… and do know a little something about odds-making.

        Haha, I am in no way that smart to have known shenanigans meant the fox thing. ( But one of my kiddos used duolingo to learn rudimentary Irish. How this is relevant I dunno.) It is pretty funny, considering that Fox made that bad call that Rush says the Murdochs used to get back at Trump.

    1. As I said, Pawel, that is my assessment. It is not a fact, just my assessment, based on the facts on the ground and the legal team he has assembled. Facts such as that, in seven Milwaukee precincts alone (which was where they worked to catch Biden up) there were more votes cast than there were registered voters in the precinct, In two of them, more than double were cast. That is prima facie evidence of fraud.

      1. And the logic of what we saw and felt on the ground even in battleground states makes one doubt immediately Our Seminole county here in Florida next to liberal Orange County went Biden by 3 pts. Was a shock to us who have been here a while . This is where I ride my bike every day on the roads of the pastures and Trump flags at every glance, truck rallies on the roads around town here. Very pro Trump…. And most all the republicans except one “entrenched dem “ won by more than three points (& one who took a point win.) Im not sure, but I’d say the local corruption could be at play or the shift in demographics are turning with the northeast influx

  29. I read an article a few months ago that pointed out the tactical similarities between the Antifa riots and looting that were taking place on the Upper West Coast and the Color Revolutions (like the so-called Muslim Spring) that were perpetrated around the world.

    I kind of went back to refresh myself on what the Color Revolutions were. In every case, these were riotous uprisings designed to overthrow an existing government. In every single case, the ultimate flashpoint event and rallying cry of the uprising was what the demonstrators deemed to be an unfair and illegitimate election.

    That point struck me then, when I read it and again, after reading this from your above piece: “a politically astute fellow with a lot of professional experience asked me if I thought maybe the left WANTS voters to see them steal the election to spark a backlash.”

    I’m not much of an outlandish conspiracy believer, but this is sticking with me. Maybe the REAL coup is planned for when/if Trump pounds back at all the voter fraud and is ultimately named president through the courts.

    Just a thought.

  31. Don’t stop praying! Keep praying that the DOJ, the Supreme Court, and anyone who is committed to justice and truth will do their duty and investigate the counting of ballots in Arizona, PA, Michigan, Georgia, and North Carolina and if they find evidence of fraud, toss out all illegal ballots. The Republican Party will have no stomach for this. The media doesn’t care about fraud. Pray that the Light of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, exposes any works of darkness in this electoral process. It’s not just about Trump, it’s a fundamental matter of justice. If Biden wins based upon a count of legal ballots, so be it (even though it would be the MSM and Big Tech who pulled him to victory through blatant bias and the suppression of the truth).

  32. Maybe I can help with a little glimmer of hope for the battle-weary. How will it be possible to get rid of so many fraudulent ballots?

    This morning, my Twitter feed had some indications that official election ballots had been watermarked using an ink that can be detected with special eye equipment.The rumor is that it is made with a corn-based oil. It sounds plausible to me because I remember when there was an uptick in talk of the corn being ready to harvest.

    Chuck Grassley (well, he is from Iowa): https://www.instagram.com/p/CFF4Bc8jhhA/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet

    Devin Nunes: https://twitter.com/DevinNunes/status/1155172807480754177?s=20

    And perhaps in an attempt to bring attention for countermeasures, James Comey tweets an image of himself standing in a cornfield with the sun setting. https://twitter.com/Comey/status/921536987072483328?s=20

    To confirm that watermarks are used, look at the bottom of this Infographic.(You will have to copy and paste.)

    So, there may be a remedy for this if a foreign entity, like China, tried to print fraudulaent ballots.Consider: What were they burning in the Chinese Embassy in Houston?

    This is, of course, what folks call “Conspiracy theory.” But if it is just pure wishful-thinking, I wonder why so many government officials suddenly started talking about corn before and after the mid-term elections.

    Trump is taking the next right step. Let’s continue to pray for him.

    1. I do know that Trump is the sort of shrewd fellow who loves use opponents’ malice to lead people into traps. Having had much the same modus operandi, myself, I know to run an effective trap, you usually make yourself seem weak or confused for a bit to fully set the hook. That unnerves supporters – but enhances their joy when the trap springs. So I have been thinking about the likelihood that Trump embedded something in the machinery, knowing pretty well what they were going to do. Depending on the methods they used, the perfect time to spring the trap would be after states have certified results – for then any tampering has become a felony. We shall see.

  36. We must also pray that the GOP keeps control of the Senate. With all the fraud going on can we be sure that Tillis will hold his lead in NC? The two seats in Georgia are going to a runoff vote in January. It’s possible they could both go to the Democrats. Alaska hasn’t been called but I assume it will stay Republican. If the GOP wins both NC and Alaska, they still need to win at least one of the Georgia seats to keep a majority of one. If they lose both of them we’ll have a 50/50 split. Among the GOP 50 will be Mitt Romney and Susan Collins!

  38. Looking to a scenario where military provisional ballots save Trump’s reelection…
    In Poland, this year amid the pandemic, parliamentary elections were held, in person only, one day only as is always the case with parliamentary and presidential elections… Aren’t presidential and parliamentary elections essential? Aren’t polling sites more important than liquor stores?In US we have early voting and absentee ballots available many days before the election day. Why wasn’t it enough? How is it constitutional that all those mail in ballots were sent everywhere like unwanted flyers? How is it that presidential debates are held only by party members of the opposing party towards the incumbent president? How is it all allowed? ?? It is not democracy.

  39. Today’s first reading (Philippians 3:17–4:1) by St. Paul:

    “Brothers, be united in imitating me. Keep your eyes fixed on those who act according to the example you have from me.

    For there are so many people of whom I have often warned you, and now I warn you again with tears in my eyes, who behave like the enemies of Christ’s cross.

    They are destined to be lost; their god is the stomach; they glory in what they should think shameful, since their minds are set on earthly things.

    But our homeland is in heaven and it is from there that we are expecting a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transfigure the wretched body of ours into the mould of his glorious body, through the working of the power which he has, even to bring all things under his mastery.

    So then, my brothers and dear friends whom I miss so much, my joy and my crown, hold firm in the Lord, dear friends.”

    1. Caelids,

      Here something I have on file which I modify slightly depending upon whom I send it to.

      “We’re voting for Trump because the Tech Oligarchs, Wall St, Hedge Fund managers, the Big Banks, “woke” CEOs who profit from using cheap labor overseas to the detriment of the American worker, and the super-rich Jeff Bezos, who treats his workers like slaves, all support Biden and the Democrats. Ask yourself why the super-rich supports Biden and why his donations largely come from billionaires.

      Nancy Pelosi who has an estimated net worth of $140M represents a district whose streets are filled with suffering souls. The Black Communities in our big cities have languished and lived in warzones for 50 years under Democratic municipal leadership.

      The Democrats, at great expense and through much deception, tried to subvert a legally elected President. The Left will not accept defeat — they only want power — and will use any means necessary to get that power including lying and cheating. ‘Success is their only standard for morality.’* The Russian Hoax is the greatest political crime in American history.

      Trump has had several foreign policy successes recently that the Dems have denigrated. Even Tom Friedman of the NYT admits that only Trump has had the grit to stand up to China. A lot of people get very rich cozying up to China and couldn’t care less about the plight of a million Uighurs stuck in Chinese concentration camps. By the way, if you did any reading or research besides reading or listening to what the propagandists in the media tell you, you’d know that China, not Russia, is the existential threat to the world.

      We’re voting for Trump because we believe he will improve the lives of Black Americans, will help working people and small business owners, and is not afraid of China. And we’re voting for him because of the Dems’ radical support for abortion which includes allowing a child to die who has survived an abortion. Biden & the Dems only pay lip service to the poor & to the Black Community. “This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me” (Mt 15:8).

You must go on the offensive and defeat them”

        That gave me the peace of disengagement from them ; it gave me the freedom to devote my talents, meager as they are, to defeating them.

        The commies think that the office conveys legitimacy and in their frenzy to grasp the office, they lose Authority over us.

        Perhaps Trump will rightfully assume office and the great cleansing will begin under legitimate government authority. If so, I will wirk within that framework as God directs. If not, I secede.
