[BLESSED JAN VAN RUYSBROEK – XIII-XIV Century AD; Ruisbroek, Holy Roman Empire/ Groenendael, Holy Roman Empire; Mystic, Spiritual Writer, Doctor Divinus Ecstaticus] “Chapter V ~ OF THE WORKS WHICH GOD WORKS IN ALL IN COMMON AND OF FIVE KINDS OF SINNERS HEAR now what those three works are, which our Lord works in all men if they will submit themselves thereto. The first work which God works in all men in common consists in His calling and inviting them all, without exception, to union with Himself. And as long as a sinner does not follow this call, he must lack all the other gifts which would follow thereafter. Now I have observed that all sinners may be divided into five kinds. To the first kind belong all those who are careless of good works, who through bodily ease and the lust of the senses prefer to live in worldly employments and in multiplicity of heart. All such are unfit to receive the grace of God, and even if they had received it, they would not be able to keep it. To the …More

Your Ancestors Never Paid Taxes Until 1913 — Then They Made It a Crimeyoutube.com/watch?v=qHAM7os9OsY In 1913, the United States ratified a constitutional amendment that did something no federal law had ever done before: it claimed a permanent, legally enforced portion of every American's labor. Within six years, a nationwide enforcement bureaucracy — with investigators, auditors, criminal referral authority, and purpose-built offices from Boston to San Francisco — had materialized with a speed that institutional history struggles to explain. Your ancestors kept everything they earned. Then, in a single year, that ended. And then they made it a crime to live the way your grandparents had lived. This investigation traces the architecture of that transformation — the 1913 pivot, the suspicious coordination between the income tax amendment and the Federal Reserve Act, the enforcement machinery that appeared to exist before it was needed, and the global pattern of identical mechanisms …More
Pope Leo XIV reportedly told Spanish bishops that the rise of far-right ideology was his “greatest concern in Spain”. According to ElPais.es on 23 February, he said this on 17 November during an audience with the executive commission of the Spanish Bishops Conference (nine prelates). El País, citing two senior churchmen familiar with the discussion, reports that the Pope cautioned that "extremist" movements are attempting to "win the Catholic vote" and instrumentalise the Church for partisan political ends. The paper adds that the bishops were surprised by how directly the Pope focused on the political issue of the right, rather than other concerns they had presented to him. Following the meeting, the bishops changed their stance on stalled abuse compensation negotiations and expressed support for the government's immigration plan. Picture: Vatican Media, #newsEwppevqqdp
I wish the pope would define 'far-right ideology'. I think it is a disparaging term. On Saturday Feb 14, the pope said, “Let us begin by disarming our language, avoiding harsh words and rash judgement, refraining from slander and speaking ill of those who are not present and cannot defend themselves,”
[BLESSED JAN VAN RUYSBROEK – XIII-XIV Century AD; Ruisbroek, Holy Roman Empire/ Groenendael, Holy Roman Empire; Mystic, Spiritual Writer, Doctor Divinus Ecstaticus] “Chapter III ~ Of Humility Now understand this: we find in Christ, according to His Godhead, two kinds of humility. The first kind is this: that He willed to become man, and took on Himself that very nature which had been banished and cursed to the bottom of hell, and willed to become one with it according to His personality; so that now any man, either good or evil, can say: Christ, the Son of God, is my brother. The second kind of humility according to His Godhead consists in this; that He chose a poor maiden, not a king's daughter, for His mother, so that a poor maiden should be the mother of God, who is Lord of heaven and earth and all creatures. And further, we can say of all the works of humility which Christ ever did, that they were done by God Himself. Now let us take the humility which was in Christ according to …More
"Chapter IV ~ Of Charity The second point is charity, the beginning and origin of all virtues. This charity upheld the higher powers of His soul in quietness, and in a fruition of that very bliss which He now enjoys. And this charity kept Him constantly uplifted to His Father in reverence, in love, in adoration, in praise; with fervent prayers for the needs of all men, offering up all His works to the glory of His Father."
On the First Sunday of Lent, Bishop James Conley of Lincoln, Nebraska, celebrated Mass in the Roman rite at St Francis of Assisi Oratory in Lincoln. During the service, he emphasised that Christ confronted temptation with truth, not force.
Bishop James D Conley: "Yesterday, I celebrated a Pontifical High Mass on the First Sunday of Lent at St. Francis of Assisi Oratory in Lincoln. In the Gospel, Our Lord confronts temptation not with force, but with truth. This is prudence: knowing the good and choosing it firmly and calmly. As we walk with Christ into the desert, may we ask for the grace to grow in this virtue. Let us not rely on our own flesh or worldly influence, but on Christ who sustains us and strengthens us."

Young victims—stripped naked, terrified—are released into a secured hunting ground. --- The unsealed Epstein files make it clear: Epstein and his elite associates ran full-scale human hunts in Africa—safaris where the prey was children, released into remote terrain and chased for sport. --- A survivor has now come forward with devastating evidence: Jay-Z and Beyoncé, already linked to Epstein through flights and social ties, participated in these African hunts. The connections are snapping into place fast. --- Then come the hunters. Armed to the teeth. Packs of trained dogs. The chase begins. This isn’t fiction. This is what insiders call “The Most Dangerous Game”—a depraved “sport” among global elites. --- These Illuminati-level players crave the thrill. It feeds their darkest sexual perversions.

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
