Harrison Butker currently has the top-selling jersey on the Kansas City Chiefs following the controversial statements he made during a recent commencement speech at Benedictine College. As of Friday afternoon, sales of the veteran kicker’s jersey are even outpacing those of teammates Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, according to the official NFL Shop.

Listed among the “Top Sellers” on the official website, Butker’s No. 7 jersey has gotten quite a bump after the kicker’s polarizing remarks. CBS Sports has reached out to the NFL about the specific sales numbers.

The portion of Butker’s commencement speech that got the most backlash were the comments he made about women being sold “diabolical lies” regarding their professional careers…

Excerpted from Father David Nix…

…The site Firearms Owners Against Crime lists some of the genocidal results of 20th century governments disarming their own citizens:

• 1911: Turkey; citizens disarmed – 1.5 million Armenians were slaughtered
• 1929: Russia; citizens disarmed – 20 million Russians murdered
• 1935: China; citizens disarmed – 20 million Chinese killed
• 1938: Germany; citizens disarmed – 6 million Jews murdered
• 1956: Cambodia; citizens disarmed – 1 million “intellectuals” killed
• 1964: Guatemala; citizens disarmed – 100,000 Mayan Indians massacred
• 1970: Uganda; citizens disarmed – 300,000 … put to death

But the next may be us, as the website Bearing Arms just reported a court case last week:  “In his ruling, Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Frank P. Geraci, Jr agreed that ammunition should be considered ‘arms’ that are protected by the language of the Second Amendment, but still found the law in question to be constitutional because it’s meant to keep ‘dangerous’ people from acquiring guns and ammunition.”

The ruling then continues with this shocking explanation in reference to an 18th century law against Catholics: “The government offers several historical examples of laws that were enacted to disarm dangerous individuals, but the Court will discuss only one of the many analogues offered. In colonial Virginia, the legislature dictated that no Catholics ‘shall, or may have, or keep in his house or elsewhere, or in the possession of any other person to his use, or at his disposition, any arms, weapons, gunpowder or ammunition‘ because it was determined that ‘it is dangerous at this time to permit [Catholics] to be armed.’”

(In case it needs made clear, this judge cited an 18th Century anti-Catholic colonial law as PRECEDENT to rule on a case in 2024 . -nvp)

Now it begins to make sense why the FBI admitted in 2023 to targeting Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) Catholics.  Mr. Kyle Seraphim wrote last year at UncoverDC:   “The FBI’s Richmond Division would like to protect Virginians from the threat of ‘white supremacy,’ which it believes has found a home within Catholics who prefer the Latin Mass. An intelligence analyst within the Richmond Field Office of the FBI released in a new finished intelligence product dated January 23, 2023, on Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists (RMVE) and their interests in ‘Radical-Traditionalist Catholics’ or RTCs… The acronym, new to many in the Domestic Counterterrorism field, comes with a footnote by the writer explaining RTCs are ‘typically characterized by the rejection of the Second Vatican Council.’”

It turns out that “rejecting the Second Vatican Council” has nothing to do with “white supremacy” after all!  Rather, the left fears potential armed resistance to their totalitarian state.  This is why the Obama/Biden Administration proposes disarmament of specific citizens, namely, traditional Catholics who value the Second Amendment…

Don’t take my word for it.  Put all of the above website links together and the conclusion becomes very obvious:  The US government does not want conservative Catholics to have weapons because disarmament of undesirable citizens is always the precursor to the eradication of those exact same undesirable citizens. Again, the US government has admitted to not only using the FBI to specifically target TLM Catholics in 2023, but now even admits “it is dangerous at this time to permit [Catholics] to be armed.”  

The leftist Administration in this country has no right to disarm Catholic families as the communists did everywhere across the world in the 20th century from Croatia to Cambodia (before killing millions of them.)  Keep in mind that the disarming and genocide of the exact same civilians always came faster than the victims expected…

The US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, arrived in Kyiv on Tuesday morning on his first visit to Ukraine since a major US aid package was passed last month, as Ukrainian forces struggle to defend against increasingly intense Russian attacks. Blinken, who arrived by train from Poland in an unannounced visit, met Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, shortly after arriving.

“We know this is a challenging time. But we also know that in the near term the assistance is now on the way, some of it has already arrived and more of it will be arriving,” Blinken said. “And that’s going to make a real difference against the ongoing Russian aggression on the battlefield.”

Zelenskiy described the US aid as crucial, and thanked Blinken, but also said Ukraine desperately needed two more air defence systems to protect the second city of Kharkiv, which has been hit repeatedly by Russian strikes in recent weeks.

Addressing Blinken in English, Zelenskiy said air defence supplies were “the biggest deficit for us”, with Russia conducting long-range aerial attacks since March that have pounded electricity facilities and caused blackouts.

“Really we need today two Patriots for Kharkiv, for Kharkiv region because there the people are under attack. Civilians, warriors, everybody they are under Russian missiles.”

Blinken’s visit, his fourth to Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, comes at a difficult time for Kyiv…

St. Robert Bellarmine brings yet more crystal clarity, speaking DIRECTLY to us in this moment: Bergoglio the drooling Freemason heretic is not and never was the Pope

May 13, ARSH 2024 by Ann Barnhardt

Today is the Feast of Saint Robert Bellarmine, and the 107th anniversary of the first appearance of the Blessed Virgin to the seers at Fatima.

– May 13, 1917. When asked by the children who she was and where she came from, the lady said she was “from heaven” and that she would reveal her identity later. She asked the children to come back to the Cova da Iria on the 13th day of the month for the next six months, and she asked them to pray the rosary every day “in order to obtain peace for the world” and the end of World War I.

Saint Robert Bellarmine battled against the Protestant Revolt of the 16th Century. His rebukes of the heretics through sermons and catechisms earned him the title Doctor of the Church.

(Whooo boy. Here is “Harvey Millican” laying down simple truths, as sometimes us unlettered laynothings have to do, because those tasked with the heavy lifting are crippled in their sloth and effeminacy. Cross-posted with permission. A Mothers Day gift y’all are sure to enjoy. -nvp)

Take Note, Dr. K…

By Harvey Millican

Ladies and gentlemen, this:

…is St. Catherine of Siena.

St. Catherine held no degrees. She spoke boldly to cardinals and to the pope. She proclaimed an unpopular truth in the midst of a political and ecclesiastical firestorm. She was, of course, totally right.

She is a Doctor of the Church.

Recently, Peter Kwasniewski posted something to a social media page (brought to my attention by my sister since I’m not on any of that) stating that he had received much interest from people wishing to add their signatures to a petition that he and others have begun circulating. The petition or letter or whatever it is relies on the false-base premise that Jorge Bergoglio is now or ever was the Roman Pontiff.

What is laughable is that Dr. K. states in his post that only “credentialed” individuals (and even then only those whom he will thoroughly vet) need apply to sign the document. So only those chosen elites in the “club” are smart enough to make this kind of a call…

And that document…

The amount of mental gymnastics one has to perform in order to fail to see the obvious (he’s an antipope usurper) and then bend over backwards so far as to reach the conclusion that he’s a pope but a heretic; and that laymen can force his resignation leads to a medical condition known as Colo-cranial Syndrome. This is a malady wherein one’s head is literally up one’s ass.

But should I expect anything more from someone who places such a high value on a piece of paper hanging on his wall? As a very wise man once told me, “Rectal thermometers also have lots of degrees on them and we know where they end up.”

St. Catherine of Siena, pray for us!

The WHO was putting its finishing touches on a treaty for global health that member states will vote on at the end of this month.

https://apps.who.int/gb/inb/pdf_files/inb9/A_inb9_3-en.pdf

Notice very few, if any, mainstream media outlets are talking about this. They spent the winter distracting you with Taylor Swift’s boyfriend (who really cares?), running a giant psy op with the Hamas vs Israel narrative, and now wall-to-wall coverage of the Trump scandal involving a porn star.

But this WHO treaty is the biggest news story of the year. Why? Because the treaty on global pandemic responsiveness will affect literally every square inch of the globe, and remove all national sovereignty from member states. Remember when Sweden refused to lock down? And when parts of the U.S. remained relatively free? That’ll all get the kabosh when this treaty is ratified.

With the declaration of a global health emergency, literally ANYTHING that the WHO deems a threat, the World Health Organization will have the power to override any local government response. You can be locked down and force-vaccinated under this treaty. This is the end game for totalitarianism; the communists aren’t just coming – they’re already here.

In March 2024, the WHO launched its climate toolkit for physicians and healthcare providers – essentially what amounts to talking points that attempt to convince doctors that “climate change” is a public health crisis that they must address.

Environmentalism and public health have now joined forces to enforce worldwide communism. And if you’ve been paying attention, this should come as no surprise.

Arise, O Lord, and let Thy Enemies be scattered. Let those that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face. Show us Thy Face, O Lord and we shall be saved.

A severe G4 geomagnetic storm could emerge on Friday, triggering a watch for a storm of this magnitude from NOAA officials for the first time in nearly 20 years. The watch comes after days of solar activity that seemingly sent several explosions of plasma and magnetic fields toward Earth.G4s are the second-strongest form of geomagnetic storms and are known to potentially cause widespread voltage control problems. According to NOAA, they can also cause some protective systems to “trip out key assets from the grid,” as well as orientation issues for spacecraft. Aurora borealis, otherwise known as the northern lights, could be seen as far south as Alabama…

“If geomagnetic storms were hurricanes, ‘severe’ would be category 4,” SpaceWeather.com says.

In a press release on Thursday, NOAA said the most recent series of solar events started on May 8, when a large cluster of sunspots produced “several moderate to strong solar flares.” Solar flares are bursts of radiation known to be the solar system’s largest explosive events, according to NASA. The area where the recent flares occurred is 16 times the diameter of Earth, NOAA said, and more solar activity is expected.

That sunspot is so big you may be able to see it with your own eyes – with your solar eclipse glasses. The spot is known as AR3664. According to Space.com, it measures about 124,000 miles across and is one of the “largest and most active sunspots seen this solar cycle.”

There has also been a series of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are explosions of plasma and magnetic fields that come out of the sun’s corona, the outermost part of the sun’s atmosphere. At least five CMEs appear directed toward Earth and could arrive as early as midday on Friday and persist through Sunday, the agency said.

“This is an unusual event,” NOAA said.

“It is idle to speak of the expediency of the Ascension or, indeed, of the supernatural at all to such as these; nor do I, except by way of warning. We live in an age of no belief, or half belief, or make belief. But the truth, ” The word of the Lord endureth forever,” and our attitude towards it, can make no difference. God is still in the world, behind its forces, and guiding and controlling them, even though men neither see nor believe in Him. Men and women are still His creatures, the works of His hands–adorned with grace and destined for glory. We are on earth, it is true, but our eyes and heads, aye, and hearts too, point to the skies. No sophist, nor school of sophists, with all their arts of style and argument, have ever yet persuaded mankind at large that life ends at the grave, and that the happiness we crave and strive for and can never reach on earth is an empty dream, never to be realized. No! God made nothing in vain. We are made and destined for a higher, larger, and nobler life than the present, of which the Ascension forcibly reminds us. It reminds us, too, of the life of grace, the life of true, pure holiness over and above mere natural rectitude, a necessary precedent to the life of glory; and which our Lord, by withdrawing Himself visibly, enables us, if we will, to live.

“Let us therefore lift up our hearts to heaven where Christ has gone “to prepare a place for us.” We have not seen Him ascend; but we know by faith He is there. He is the head of the mystic body of which we are members, and limbs should join the head. “Ubi caput praecessit ibi spes vocatur et corporis.” Be faithful, then, to grace, lead a life not of pleasure, but of duty. Peace is only found where God placed it–in a dutiful, self-denying life. ” Therefore,” in the words of St. Paul, “if you be risen with Christ, seek the things that are above; where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God: Mind the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth. . . . When Christ shall appear, who is your life, then you also shall appear with him in glory” (Col.iii. 1,2,4).”

“Within minutes of getting the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine, Michelle Zimmerman felt pain racing from her left arm up to her ear and down to her fingertips. Within days, she was unbearably sensitive to light and struggled to remember simple facts.

“She was 37, with a Ph.D. in neuroscience, and until then could ride her bicycle 20 miles, teach a dance class and give a lecture on artificial intelligence, all in the same day. Now, more than three years later, she lives with her parents. Eventually diagnosed with brain damage, she cannot work, drive or even stand for long periods of time.

“”When I let myself think about the devastation of what this has done to my life, and how much I’ve lost, sometimes it feels even too hard to comprehend,” said Dr. Zimmerman, who believes her injury is due to a contaminated vaccine batch.”

Adams, NYPD cite ‘global’ effort to ‘radicalize young people’ after 300 arrested at Columbia, CUNY

New York City Mayor Eric Adams slams movement to ‘radicalize our children’ amid widespread anti-Israel campus protests

New York City Mayor Eric Adams and New York Police Department (NYPD) leadership cited a “global” movement to “radicalize young people” in announcing approximately 300 arrests at Columbia University and City College that took place overnight.

“I know that there are those who are attempting to say, well, the majority of people may have been students. You don’t have to be the majority to influence and co-opt an operation. That is what this is about. And so, if we want to play the word police, you could do so. I’m going to play the New York City police,” Adams said at a press conference. “There is a movement to radicalize young people, and I’m not going to wait until it’s done and all of a sudden acknowledge the existence of it. This is a global problem that young people are being influenced by those who are professionals at radicalizing our children. And I’m not going to allow that to happen as the mayor of the city of New York…We can’t create environments while children could be in danger, and we must push back on all attempts to radicalize our young people in this city like we’re seeing across the entire globe.”

Dearest brothers and fathers in Christ sweet Jesus: I Catherine, servant and slave of the servants of Jesus Christ, write to you in His precious Blood: with desire to see you turn back to the true and most perfect light, leaving the deep shadows of blindness into which you are fallen. Then you shall be fathers to me; otherwise not. Yes, indeed, I call you fathers in so far as you shall leave death and turn back to life (for, as things go now, you are parted from the life of grace, limbs cut off from your head from which you drew life), when you shall stand united in faith, and in that perfect obedience to Pope Urban VI., in which those abide who have the light, and in light know the truth, and knowing it love it…

Oh, human blindness! Seest thou not, unfortunate man, that thou thinkest to love things firm and stable, joyous things, good and fair? and they are mutable, the sum of wretchedness, hideous, and without any goodness; not as they are created things in themselves, since all are created by God, who is perfectly good, but through the nature of him who possesses them intemperately. How mutable are the riches and honours of the world in him who possesses them without God, without the fear of Him! for to-day is he rich and great, and to-day he is poor. How hideous is our bodily life, that living we shed stench from every part of our body! Simply a sack of dung, the food for worms, the food of death! …

Oh, wretched man, the darkness of self-love does not let thee know this truth. For didst thou know it, thou wouldst choose any pain rather than guide thy life in this way; thou wouldst give thee to loving and desiring Him who Is; thou wouldst enjoy His truth in firmness, and wouldst not move about like a leaf in the wind; thou wouldst serve thy Creator, and wouldst love everything in Him, and apart from Him nothing. Oh, how will this blindness be reproved at the last moment in every rational being, and much the more in those whom God has taken from the filth of the world, and assigned to the greatest excellence that can be, having made them ministers of the Blood of the humble and spotless Lamb! Oh me, oh me! what have you come to by not having followed up your dignities with virtue? …

Now you have turned your backs, like poor mean knights; your shadow has made you afraid. You have divided you from the truth which strengthens us, and drawn close to falsehood, which weakens soul and body, depriving you of temporal and spiritual grace. What made you do this? The poison of self-love, which has infected the world. That is what has made you pillars lighter than straw. Flowers you who shed no perfume, but stench that makes the whole world reek! No lights you placed in a candlestick, that you might spread the faith; but, having hidden your light under the bushel of pride, and become not extenders, but contaminators of the faith, you shed darkness over yourselves and others. You should have been angels on earth, placed to release us from the devils of hell, and performing the office of angels, by bringing back the sheep into the obedience of Holy Church, and you have taken the office of devils. That evil which you have in yourselves you wish to infect us with, withdrawing us from obedience to Christ on earth, and leading us into obedience to antichrist, a member of the devil, as you are too, so long as you shall abide in this heresy.

Ah, foolish men, worthy of a thousand deaths! As blind, you do not see your own wrong, and have fallen into such confusion that you make of your own selves liars and idolaters…
