Biden's Poll Numbers Tank; DISAPPROVAL Soars!

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 48% of likely U.S. voters approve of President Biden’s job performance. Fifty percent (50%) disapprove.

The latest figures include 29% who strongly approve of the job Biden is doing and 40% who strongly disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -11.

ARE GOP Leaders Being 'Played' By Biden & Co?

- June 29, 2021 - 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

So sad to see certain RINO Republican Senators go back and forth to the White House and continually get nothing for infrastructure or anything else. When will they learn that they are being played with, and used by, the Radical Left—and only bad things can happen. Should have never lost the Senate in the first place, thanks Mitch! New leadership is needed, and fast!

Coming This Fall - A Surefire MUST Read!

 


From the publisher:
As governor of New Jersey and a key Trump insider and longtime friend, Chris Christie has always been known for speaking his mind. Now that the depressing 2020 election is finally behind us, he shares his bold insights on how a battered Republican Party can soar into the future and start winning big elections again.

The wrong answers are everywhere. Dangerous conspiracy theorists. A tired establishment. Truth deniers and political cowards. In Republican Rescue, Christie reveals exactly how absurd grievances and self-inflicted wounds sabotaged Donald Trump’s many successes and allowed Democrats to capture the White House, the House, and Senate in two years—a first for the GOP since the days of Herbert Hoover. In his frank and compelling voice, Christie dissects the last year of the Trump administration—which provoked nothing but conspiracy theories and infighting—and he lays out an honest and hopeful vision, explaining how Republicans can capture the future and save America from today’s damaging Democratic excesses.

A Frank Inter-Racial Chat About Critical Race Theory


Christine Flowers and I talk with local activist Rick Short and town council candidate Nicole Nance about Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the danger it poses to free thought and the responsible education of our children. You don't want to miss this conversation with a concerned parent and an African-American woman, both of whom are deeply concerned about CRT and other threats on the horizon. The potential consequences of CRT in our schools are vast. And, take particular note of the insightful definition of "systemic racism" provided by the very astute Nicole Nance. It's the best we've heard yet!

Yo, Murphy: Stand Up For NJ Home-Based Workers!

Senator Steven Oroho said Governor Phil Murphy isn’t doing enough to end New York’s unfair taxation of former commuters who now work from home in New Jersey some or all of the time.

Sen. Steven Oroho said Gov. Phil Murphy isn’t doing enough to end New York’s unfair taxation of former commuters who now work from home in New Jersey some or all of the time. (Pixabay)

“The pandemic accelerated a shift to remote work that resulted in many New Jersey residents working from home rather than crossing the Hudson every day,” said Oroho (R-24). “While those workers should be paying tax to New Jersey at our lower rates for work performed in this state, the Murphy administration continues to advise their employers to withhold and remit income taxes for all work to New York. It’s a massive giveaway that makes absolutely no sense.”

Since last year, Oroho has urged the Murphy administrationto take a stand against New York’s unfair taxation of New Jersey workers. He said New Jersey could realize $1 billion or more annually in new tax revenues while many workers could have their state tax bills cut in half due to New Jersey’s lower rates at many income levels.

“It’s no surprise that New York doesn’t want to give up the billions of dollars of tax revenue it’s stealing from New Jersey,” said Oroho. “The surprise is that Governor Murphy is complicit in this theft. He’s telling employers to do whatever New York tells them to do, even though it hurts New Jersey and our residents. It’s unbelievable.”

Based on their positive experiences with telecommuting during the pandemic, many employers have announced plans to make remote or hybrid work arrangements permanent for their workforces.

Oroho noted that many New York employers are in the process of closing offices and downsizing office space in a reflection of the permanent shift to remote work for many of their workers.

“With offices getting smaller, many former commuters won’t even have desks to return to in New York,” said Oroho. “If the infrastructure and service demands of those workers is shifting from New York to New Jersey, the supporting tax dollars should shift here too. New York’s ‘convenience of the employer’ rule may have made sense in the era of typewriters and wall phones, but it doesn’t make sense when a worker with a cell phone and the Internet can do their job from their dining room table. Times have changed and our tax rules need to be modernized to reflect that.”

Despite this permanent shift to remote work, New York continues to insist that it is owed income taxes for all work performed by New Jersey residents whose employers are based in New York, even if those workers never leave their homes.

Oroho expressed concern that the Murphy administration continues to back New York’s position with guidance from the New Jersey Division of Taxation advising that “during the temporary period of the COVID-19 pandemic, wage income will continue to be sourced as determined by the employer in accordance with the employer’s jurisdiction.”

“This situation will never be resolved to the benefit of New Jerseyans if Governor Murphy continues to roll over and play dead,” said Oroho. “Until we fight back, this unfair taxation by New York will never end. The Murphy administration should start by directing employers to apportion earnings and income tax withholdings to New Jersey for work performed here by our residents. Further, Governor Murphy should draw a line in the sand with Governor Cuomo and make clear that New Jersey is prepared to make our own case before the United States Supreme Court if necessary.”

This morning, the United States Supreme Court declined to consider a limited case filed by New Hampshire against Massachusetts regarding the temporary tax treatment of income earned remotely during the pandemic, which is coming to an end.

Governor Murphy has suggested that he was hoping the outcome of that case would help resolve the New York tax issue.

“The Supreme Court may not have wanted to issue a ruling on a temporary matter that might be resolved on its own,” added Oroho. “That doesn’t mean a direct challenge by New Jersey of New York’s perpetual taxation of remote work arrangements that have become permanent would be rejected. I would suggest it’s time for Governor Murphy to stop hiding behind others and start defending New Jerseyans on his own.”

Trump Unloads On Barr, McConnell, RINOs

- June 27, 2021 - 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

RINO former Attorney General Bill Barr failed to investigate election fraud, and really let down the American people. Even the scam that took place in Georgia of ballot stuffing on camera, he couldn’t see what was wrong with it. Just like he failed to understand the Horowitz report and let everyone down with respect to getting a timely investigation (where’s Durham?) on all of the corruption of the Obama-Biden Administration. 

 

It’s people in authority like Bill Barr that allow the crazed Radical Left to succeed. He and other RINOs in the Republican Party are being used in order to try to convince people that the election was legitimate when so many incredible facts have now come out to show conclusively that it wasn’t.

 

He came in with a semi-bang and went out with a whimper. Earlier in his term Bill Barr went ballistic on CNN with Wolf Blitzer warning Democrats were changing election rules to flood the system with mail-in ballots that “as a matter of logic” are “very open to fraud.” They are, and Bill Barr did nothing about it.

 

If there was no fraud, why are Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and other States spending so much time and effort on exposing the fraud? We already know that:

 

  • 101,789 “obsolete” voters on the rolls in Georgia, including 18,486 dead people
  • Ballot batches off by up to 17.5 percent in Maricopa County, Arizona
  • “Massive” chain of custody problems with drop boxes in Georgia, missing hundreds of thousands of records for months after the election
  • Thousands of ballots “wheeled in through the back door” in Fulton County days after the election
  • “Double feeding” ballots in Fulton County, Georgia
  • Nearly 200,000 illegal “indefinitely confined” votes in Wisconsin that violated Voter ID law
  • “Cash for votes” scheme in Nevada
  • Illegal alien votes
  • Election law changes were not authorized by the State Legislatures, which is mandated by the U.S. Constitution

 

And much more!

 

If he felt this way, why did Barr say he was “greatly honored” and “proud to have played a role in the many successes and unprecedented achievements you have delivered for the American people” in the final letter he wrote to me? He said, “Few could have weathered these attacks, much less forge ahead with a positive program for the country."

 

Now it was revealed that Barr was being pushed to tell lies about the election by Mitch McConnell, another beauty, who was worried about damaging the Republicans chances in the Georgia runoff. What really damaged the Senate Republicans was allowing their races to be rigged and stolen, and worse, the American people to no longer believe their vote matters because spineless RINOs like Bill Barr and Mitch McConnell did nothing. 

 

Bill Barr was a disappointment in every sense of the word. Besides which, Barr, who was Attorney General (lawyer) shouldn't be speaking about the President. Instead of doing his job, he did the opposite and told people within the Justice Department not to investigate the election. Just like he did with the Mueller report and the cover up of Crooked Hillary and RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA, they don’t want to investigate the real facts. Bill Barr’s weakness helped facilitate the cover up of the Crime of the Century, the Rigged 2020 Presidential Election!

Another Effort To Obscure Election 'Irregularities'?

June 25, 2021 - 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

Wisconsin Republican leaders Robin Vos, Chris Kapenga, and Devin LeMahieu, are working hard to cover up election corruption, in Wisconsin. They are actively trying to prevent a Forensic Audit of the election results, especially those which took place in Milwaukee, one of the most corrupt election locales in the country. Don’t fall for their lies! These REPUBLICAN “leaders” need to step up and support the people who elected them by providing them a full forensic investigation. If they don’t, I have little doubt that they will be primaried and quickly run out of office.

New Law Broadens Help For NJ Firefighters

New Jersey State Senator Anthony M. Bucco and Senator Mike Doherty’s legislation allowing more firefighters to join the New Jersey State Firemen’s Association (NJSFA) was signed by Governor Murphy.

The Governor signed into law legislation sponsored by Sen. Anthony M. Bucco and Sen. Mike Doherty allowing more firefighters to join the New Jersey State Firemen’s Association. (Pixabay)

The new law, A-4745/S-3277, supports essential volunteer and professional firefighters in the state by increasing the maximum eligibility age to join the NJSFA from 45 to 57. As a result, firefighters could begin serving with the fire service later in life and still earn qualification for exempt firefighter certificates.

“Communities across our state rely on volunteer firefighters to protect lives and property,” said Bucco (R-25), a 40-year member and former captain with the Boonton Volunteer Fire Department. “I am proud of my volunteer service and proud of this new law, which will benefit paid firefighters, as well. It will help bolster the volunteer ranks and better acknowledge the contributions of dedicated volunteers who put the needs of their neighbors above their own.”

Previously, firefighters had been required to join the fire service between the ages of 18 and 45 to be eligible for an exempt fireman certificate. To earn exempt status, volunteers must have responded to a minimum of 60 percent of their department’s fire duty calls over a seven-year period.

“Volunteer firefighters are essential assets for our communities, especially in suburban and rural areas,” said Doherty (R-23). “Age does not affect the selfless commitment of volunteer responders who willingly drop what they are doing to answer the call at any hour. The current age limits fail to reflect today’s realities. By expanding the age requirements, we can attract more dedicated candidates to the fire service to help keep our towns and cities safe.”

Formed in 1885, the New Jersey State Firemen’s Association includes any fire company, department or fire district that is under municipal control. The mission of the association is to establish, provide for and maintain a fund for the relief, support or burial of needy firefighters and their families, and the families of any person who is injured or dies as the result of doing public fire duty.

Among the benefits available to members, the nonprofit NJSFA provides burial benefits and relief assistance to qualified firefighters and their dependents, based on the length of firefighter service with a maximum payment of $12,000 for a fully qualified member.

NJ Budget: Legislators Speak Out; Pay Attention!

Below are links to tweets with embedded YouTube video from New Jersey State Senate Republicans who spoke during today’s New Jersey Senate floor debate on the FY 2022 State Budget, along with a brief synopsis: 

Senator Steven Oroho (R-24), the Senate Republican Budget Officer:

“I've heard a lot about a surplus, this windfall, during debate over Gov. Murphy's budget proposal. New Jersey has no surplus. We have over $200 billion worth of unfunded liabilities that need to be addressed.”

https://twitter.com/stevenoroho/status/1408237729243140097

 

Senator Michael Testa (R-1), a member of the Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee:

“The budget that Democrats approved today is bad public policy and it's wrong for New Jersey and the forgotten taxpayers. It represents an orgy of pork and unnecessary spending.”

https://twitter.com/senatortesta/status/1408228584976695297

 

Senator Declan O'Scanlon (R-13), a member of the Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee:

“I don't like this historic lack of transparency. I don't like last minute bills that spend billions of dollars that nobody has read. I don't like massive amounts of pork and billion-dollar slush funds.”

https://twitter.com/senatenj/status/1408225586779148289

 

Senator Sam Thompson (R-12), a member of the Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee:

“This state budget process was awful for transparency. It undermines the guiding principles that are important to every democracy.”

https://twitter.com/SamThompsonNJ/status/1408231502853332993

 

Senate Republican Leader Tom Kean (R-21):

“As a result of the many impacts of the pandemic over the past 15 months, there are a great many needs that this budget should address to help New Jersey recover and come back stronger. Unfortunately, this proposal missed the mark.”

https://twitter.com/tomkean/status/1408225959665410049

 

Senator Bob Singer (R-30), Deputy Republican Leader:

“The budget that Democrats approved today is really around $51 billion when you add the federal dollars in received by New Jersey in recent months. It's unsustainable into the future. It'll lead to drastic budget cuts next year or huge increases in taxes.”

https://twitter.com/bobsingernj/status/1408248341289488392

 

Senator Anthony M. Bucco (R-25):

“The Democratic budget proposal approved by the Senate today represents missed opportunities for New Jerseyans. I'm afraid we'll be back here next year with nothing to show for the many tens of billions of dollars that are being spent.”

Instead Of Suing Georgia, We Should . . . .

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

Biden’s Department of Justice just announced that they are suing the Great State of Georgia over its Election Integrity Act. Actually, it should be the other way around! The PEOPLE of Georgia should SUE the State, and their elected officials, for running a CORRUPT AND RIGGED 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION—and for trying to suppress the VOTE of the AMERICAN PEOPLE in Georgia. If we don’t address these issues from the 2020 Election head on, and we allow the Radical Left Democrats to continue to politicize the DOJ and Law Enforcement, we will lose our Country. SAVE AMERICA!

Amazing Chat With 95-Year-Old Dick Van Dyke!

This is a video to treasure. Enjoy it!

Murphy Budget Loaded With 'Misplaced Priorities'

New Jersey state Senator Jim Holzapfel and Assemblymen Greg McGuckin and John Catalano opposed a State Budget put forward by Governor Murphy and Democrats in the Legislature that cuts millions in aid to schools in Brick and Toms River while funding tens of millions of dollars in unnecessary pork projects.

Sen. Jim Holzapfel, Asm. Greg McGuckin and Asm. John Catalano said the budget passed in Trenton today highlights the misplaced priorities of the Democrats and will drain some Ocean County schools of their rightfully deserved funding. (Pixabay)

The legislators highlighted the misplaced priorities of the Democrats’ budget plan that will drain certain Ocean County schools of their rightfully deserved funding.  As the state begins to recover from the economic fallout of Governor Murphy’s extended shutdowns, the lawmakers believe that this excessive spending plan will create billions more in new taxes next year.

“Instead of funding our schools fairly, Democrats have decided to cut aid from our classrooms and redirect it into pork projects in their districts,” stated Senator Holzapfel. “It says a lot about their priorities and how they’re choosing to fund wasteful programs over our children.  This lavish spending in a post-Covid world is going to devastate our taxpayers and our school children for years to come.”

The election-year budget is inflated with pork projects for North Jersey districts including $500,000 for a band shell in Hopewell, $300,000 for the Paramus Public Library, additional increases in aid to areas in Camden, and an unexplained $10 million for North Bergen schools while many Ocean County school districts are being cut.

“Republicans have repeatedly provided common-sense solutions to make New Jersey more affordable and properly fund our schools,” said Assemblyman McGuckin. “It’s unconscionable the Governor would even consider signing a budget which takes away school funding from the children of Ocean County so he can spend $24 Million dollars to build a new museum in Jersey City.  Governor Murphy would rather put his political interests and re-election hopes ahead of our children’s education. I’ll never support a budget that values this partisan pork over our school children.”

Toms River Regional School District is facing a 14 percent decrease in funding for FY 2022 while Brick Township is set to lose nearly 20 percent of its funding. This is another blow to the school districts that have already had to lay-off staff and dissolve extracurricular programs.

“It’s a shame that every year millions of dollars are being wasted on frivolous programs while teachers are being laid off and students’ extra-curricular activities are being cut,” added Assemblyman Catalano.  “Our school districts deserve better than backroom, pork filled schemes that only serve the personal interests of a handful of lawmakers.”

Public 'Shut Out' Of $46.4 Million NJ State Budget

New Jersey state Senator Kristin Corrado (R-40) released the following statement on the Fiscal Year 2022 state budget approved by the Senate:

Senator Kristin Corrado votes against the $46.4 billion FY2022 budget that passed both houses of the Legislature today. (SenateNJ.com)

“Today’s $46.4 billion budget vote is the epitome of opaque government in Trenton. It’s another example of backroom deals and the public being shut out of the process by the legislative Democratic majority.

“New Jerseyans deserve better. They deserve real transparency.”

Critical Race Theory: Pyramid Of Discrimination


 

This is an actual diagram of what Critical race Theory (CRT) calls its pyramid of discrimination. Note that something as seemingly common sense (and responsible) as "lifting yourself up by your bootstraps" is considered explicit racism. And suggesting that we adopt English as our national language falls into the same ctegory. And "denying white privelege"? Well, sorry. That's not permittred either. This isn't education. This is indoctrination. And THIS is what they want to teach your children! In fact, in many places, this is what they ARE teaching your cchildren right now.

There's A Reason Why His Star Is Rising!

  

Save Jersey's Matt Rooney and I had an in-depth, freewheelin' chat with Middletown (NJ) Mayor Tony Perry
Right at the start of the interview, Tony tells us what's wrong with the budget that Phil Murphy and the Democrats are ramming through the state legislature and then he connects all the dots between Murphy and the Dems' misguided policies and their negative impact on municipalities across the state. 
The amiable Perry is dedicated, detailed, smart and articulate. 
And, he's the first Middletown mayor in decades to be chosen as mayor by his colleagues for each of his three years on the Township Committee. As one of the youngest mayors in the state (and the mayor of one of New Jersey's best-run communities) it's clear he's got a bright future ahead of him.

About Those 100,000+ Georgia Votes . . .

- June 22, 2021 - 

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President 

of the United States of America

Georgia now plans to remove over 100,000 “obsolete and outdated” names off their voter rolls. Doing this, they say, will ensure voting files are up to date, while at the same time ensuring voter integrity in future elections. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE LAST ELECTION? WHY WASN’T THIS DONE PRIOR TO THE NOVEMBER 3RD PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, where they had us losing by a very small number of votes, many times less than the 101,789 figure? This means we (you!) won the Presidential Election in Georgia. But don’t fret, much other information will soon be revealed about Georgia—and other States as well. It is coming out FAST and FURIOUS. The 2020 Presidential Election was rigged!

EXCLUSIVE: Philly DA Candidate Peruto Tells All!

This exclusive chat with Philadelphia District Attorney candidate Charles "Chuck" Peruto is a real eye-opener. The noted defense attorney shared all with Christine Flowers and I last night. Here are some of the highlights:

Sometimes You Do Have To Wonder . . .


 

The Ten Most Important Things Dad Taught Me

A very old photo of my dad standing lovingly alongside his own father.
Happy Father's Day to all!

My father was not a man to lecture. His "words" were contained in his everyday actions -- in the daily example he set. As I watched him, day-by-day, over decades, here's what he taught me:

1. Seize the day. Don't wait. Don't delay. Get an early start and get about your business.

2. Stay informed. Pay attention to what's happening in the world because cause one way or another it's gonna impact you and your family. Remain alert.

3. Smile. Put a smile on your face before you head out the door. It will make you feel better and encourage others as well.

4. Don't make enemies. Try to be nice to everybody. You never no who you're gonna need. 

5. Don't be intimidated. You're not better than anybody else but no one is necessarily better than you, either. Don't be bullied or intimidated. Fight back, if necessary.

6. Give it your best. No matter how small the job may be, do your very best every time. And take pride in everything you accomplish.

7. Work hard. There's honor and dignity in hard work iteslf. The fine job you do will speak louder than any plaudit.

8. Keep your word. Loyalty is a priceless commodity. Don't broker it.

9. Don't give up. Hold true to your beliefs. Fight on, no matter what!

10. Look forward. Don't lament what might have been. Tomorrow is a new day.

And one more: Always look your best. It bespeaks self respect that sets an example for others.

Celebrate Juneteenth, But Keep It In Context!

Hey, we've got no beef with Juneteenth. None whatsoever!

In fact, I taught inner city fifth graders in Camden about Juneteenth more than 50 years ago in my first job out of college as I worked as an elementary school teacher. I taught Black history before most people even knew what it was. And I was proud and honored to do it. Later, as Communications Director for the Philadelphia Bar Association I helped launch the Association's first-ever annual observance of Juneteenth. Once again, it was a joy to be part of this.

I am a bit concerned, however, about the way Juneteenth has been weaponized by Democrats and is being used to misinform and indoctrinate others. That's why we've tried to set the historical record straight here. The Republican Party was founded to end slavery. The first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, freed the slaves with the Emancipation Proclamation. The earliest African-Americans elected to federal office were Republicans and it's Republicans who fought for the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution abolishing slavery and the many civil rights laws which followed. None of this would have been possible without Republicans. That is the legacy of the Republican Party. BTW: It's also fitting to note that in the very Republican state of Texas, Juneteenth has been a state holiday for more than 40 years.

Finally, we're also concerned that the new holiday is called Juneteenth National Independence Day. We worry that it might be confused with or, for some people, actually supplant our real Independence Day also known as the Fourth of July. Sadly, the possibility now exists that we will have two separate "independence" days -- one on the 19th of June for African-Americans and one on July 4th for everybody else. That would be a real tragedy and would further divide our nation. July 4th is America's Independence Day -- a day for all Americans of every race, creed and color to celebrate. Diluting that day would represent a great disservice to freedom, democracy and our shared national heritage. 

On Juneteenth, Just Remember This . . .


 

Words To Contemplate On A Busy Weekend . . .

Today's fascinating Gospel . . . 

Jesus said to his disciples:

“No one can serve two masters.
He will either hate one and love the other,
or be devoted to one and despise the other.
You cannot serve God and mammon.

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or drink,
or about your body, what you will wear.
Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
Look at the birds in the sky;
they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns,
yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
Are not you more important than they?
Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span?
Why are you anxious about clothes?
Learn from the way the wild flowers grow.
They do not work or spin.
But I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor
was clothed like one of them.
If God so clothes the grass of the field,
which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow,
will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith?
So do not worry and say, ‘What are we to eat?’
or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear?’
All these things the pagans seek.
Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
But seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given you besides.
Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself.
Sufficient for a day is its own evil.”

Wanna Talk History? OK, Let's Talk HISTORY!


 Republicans championed abolition -- and continued to champion freedom for al for generations to come. In Fact, the GOP was founded as an anti-slavery party (with Abe Lincoln at the helm) while democrats ushered in the Jim Crow era and later acquiesced to rampant segregation. And this continued for at least a century! No wonder they want o rewrite history and weaponize Juneteenth! But we know better!

Don't Forget Who Made It All Happen!




 

OMG! NJ Congressman Bares It All -- ALMOST!

From our friend Matt Rooney at Save Jersey (reprinted with permission) . . .

Some things you can’t unsee, Save Jerseyans.

On Thursday, a fellow member of Congress shared Zoom video of U.S. Rep. Donald Payne (D, N.J.-10) during a virtual House hearing appearing to wear little more than boxers and a Captain American t-shirt.

It’s a sign of the times to be sure; I’ve worn SHORTS, not boxer shorts, during many a Zoom since last March, but I’m also not a member of Congress.

His attire was only the half of it. The video posted by Beth Van Duyne, a Texas Republican, shows Payne standing and then lingering in full view of his web camera, apparently oblivious that his formidable belly and blue-striped boxer shorts were hanging out for all the world to see with precious little left to the imagination.

Don’t eat before watching:

On Such A Beautiful Day, Keep This In Mind!




 

Just Five Minutes: MILLIONS Have Watched It!

 

Never, Ever Forget This . . . . .






 

Suddenly, It's A 'Private Matter' This Is NONSENSE!

 

As a public figure Biden flaunts his Catholic faith and has done so for years. 
He shamelessly uses it as part of a political strategy. 
He calls himself "devout" but publicly, actively and relentlessly undermines a core teaching of the Catholic Churcch. 
In doing so -- in supporting abortion on demand -- he openly scandalizes the Church. And yet, somehow, this is a "private matter"? 
Bullshit!
