Abraham's Journey
(I have been depressed by hearing growing numbers of people I respect pondering whether we are reaching the end of all things. At this point, the crises in the Church seems to drive it more, even, than the serial crises in the world. I do not speak publicly in overtly prophetic terms anymore, so you […]
Read More This is Not the EndSpecial Counsel Robert Mueller’s indictment Friday of 13 Russian nationals was silly, dangerous, and a transparent effort to gain some leverage for a safe exit strategy from the sham that has been the Russian collusion investigation. To explain why, I decided to write this in the form of an analytical memo like those I used […]
Read More An Indictment About Nothing – Except LeverageBy Charlie Johnston Some people were depressed by my starkly candid piece, “What is Truth,” on the challenge before us in the States. Victor Davis Hanson wrote a much gentler description than I about what we face. No matter how you deliver the news, though, the choices are stark. Will we have objective standards of […]
Read More The Hope of the World(We begin Lent 2018 at a time of intense confusion and clarity, horror and hope, uncertainty and unwavering resolve. It remains a time to CHOOSE and a time to embrace anew the message enkindled at TNRS and ever burning brightly at ASOH. In this unmasking process, I often contemplate: Is the darkness actually deepening? […]
Read More Ashes, Hearts and Flames of Fire(I was just finishing a piece I had worked on over the weekend when I must have hit a combination of buttons on Microsoft Word that wiped it out. I will re-write tomorrow. Hate that. Meantime, I am reprinting a piece I wrote on January 11, over a year ago, when the news of the […]
Read More Marking TimeBy Charlie Johnston It has been a challenging week. Last Sunday I had one of my periodic neurological episodes. When it happens, my mind gets fuzzy, my head gets sweaty, the pain spikes terribly, and I get nauseous. Not pleasant, but I was about two months overdue – and I kind of look […]
Read More What is TruthBy Charlie Johnston The Washington Post adopted a new slogan a year ago to coincide with the beginning of the Trump Administration: “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” This last week, ALL the legacy media and the Democrats have rooted for darkness. After the Nunes Memo was released, the legacy media has been relentless in avoiding any […]
Read More Rooting For the Darkness(I was blown away by this piece written by Fr. Richard Heilman at his site, Roman Catholic Man. Rather than just link to it, I sent him a note asking permission to reprint it in its entirety…and yes, I disclosed to him that I am THAT Charlie Johnston. To my delight, he quickly and graciously […]
Read More Super Blue Blood MoonBy Charlie Johnston In late spring of 2016, an attendee at a talk I was giving in Las Vegas said she thought that Donald Trump was God’s plan for America and wanted to know what I thought. “Well, God can do anything, so it’s possible,” I replied, then added drily, “but if that […]
Read More Breaking Up the Corruption Frozen Around Our InstitutionsBy Charlie Johnston For several months now, it has become increasingly clear that the investigation into Russian collusion with Donald Trump to tilt the 2016 investigation was a complete sham, just a weaponized part of the “resistance” to discredit him. Over the last month the evidence has become compelling that the “investigation” was […]
