When Sidney Powell Does the Job of Catholic Bishops Wednesday, May 26 2021
Uncategorized bishops, Catholic, covid 3:12 pm
I am on the mailing list for Sidney Powell. Today, I received an email from her website, with lots of useful information about the Covid-19 fake vaxx/injection, and about our rights in that regard. My big question is: Why aren’t the Catholic Bishops producing this kind of content? Why are the Catholic Bishops shilling for (Democrat) State authorities – they’d never shill for Repub governors like DeSantis, of course – and for BigPharma?
Why are the Catholic Bishops not asking the difficult questions on our behalf, as good shepherds would do for their flock?
Below is the copypasta from Sidney’s email. Take a look at the links and the info, and consider signing up for her emails. Also: Let us pray for the conversion of Sidney Powell to the True Faith!
Oremus pro Invicem!
| Dear Patriots, Are you being bullied, harassed or mandated by an employer or a university to get a vaccine for Covid-CCP (Chinese Communist Party) Virus? We will be presenting tips on how to deal with this situation. While we understand this is a controversial issue, we believe strongly that NO ONE should be forced, against their will, to be vaccinated. There should be no repercussions from refusing the vaccine for a virus that has a 99% cure rate. Here are a few points. We especially wish to point out that the vaccine makers have been totally released from any liability if there is a negative side effect or death from the vaccine. BUT, note that if your employer or your university is forcing this on you, THEY have the potential of being held liable. It might be worth telling them about that! Here are things to consider before you make an decision: 1) There are NO licensed COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S. 2) Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) only – don’t believe “approval” means “licensed.” 3) Your Option to Refuse is based on Federal law over EUAs. 4) Your Right to Informed Consent based on Federal law over EUAs. 5) There are NO long term studies of side effects. 6) Side effects unknown because there are no PRIOR approved mRNA vaccines in the U.S. 7) Short term evidence of severe side effects and death. 8) If you have had Covid-CCP you have immunity. 9) All vaccine makers have been totally released from ALL liability for any side effects or death. 10) There is liability potential on employers who mandate the vaccine if there are side effects or death. Here are links to pdf forms to print out and give to your employer or to a university where your children may be attending. It makes sure that they are on record as providing the answers to questions surrounding the vaccine and potential after effects. Form_Employees_Whose_Employers_Are_Requiring_Covid-19_Injections.pdf Form_Students_Attending_College_Or-Universities_Requiring_Covid-19_Injections(1).pdf These forms come from Solari.com, Catherine Austin Fitts website and were compiled by Corey Lynn www.coreysdigs.com Look for more information about this and the forced wearing of masks. If you are dealing with these issues and would like to talk to a member of Team Kraken, send an email here and we will review it. support@defendingtherepublic.org For more information, please go the Defending The Republic website: https://defendingtherepublic.org/covid/ ______________________________ 1-The official “experts’ claim this reaction is rare, and it may be. But that does not matter when it is you or someone you love hospitalized with heart issues due to the Covid vaccine! Remember, if you have had the Covid-CCP Virus you have immunity and most likely do not need to be vaccinated. In fact, there is scientific evidence that your own immunity is better than the vaccine. These heart issues are short term side effects. There is absolutely NO infomation anywhere on the long term effects. https://www.theepochtimes.com/18-cases-of-heart-inflammation-after-covid-19-vaccination-reported-in-connecticut_3829797.html 18 Cases of Heart Inflammation After COVID-19 Vaccination Reported in Connecticut QUOTE: A single state has recorded 18 cases of myocarditis in people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. All of the cases in Connecticut required hospitalization. Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Deirdre Gifford told reporters during a virtual press briefing on Monday that the cases have been “rare” and “mild.” But she added later when asked how many of the patients were hospitalized, “All of the cases that were reported to us were individuals that were hospitalized, the vast majority for a couple of days.” ________________________________ 2- On Monday, Sidney and Team Kraken filed a Motion to Dismiss On Monday, May 24, 2021, Sidney Powell, Sidney Powell, P.C. and Defending the Republic, Inc. filed a joint Reply Memorandum in Support of their Motion to Dismiss Dominion’s Case against them in DC. This filing reiterates to the Court that there is no jurisdiction over any of these defendants, that venue is improper, and that the case should be dismissed for failure to state a defamation or deceptive practices claim. Dominion cannot prove the essential elements of its claims as a matter of law. Actual malice is a legal impossibility here. As Sidney Powell said: “Today’s filing is yet another opportunity to demonstrate to the DC Court why there is no jurisdiction over me, my law firm, or Defending the Republic, Inc, and why Dominion fails to state any claim against any of the defendants. This case is meritless and should be dismissed in its entirety. We had and have evidence supporting all our statements about Dominion.” A copy of Monday’s filing can be found here: https://defendingtherepublic.org/dominion ___________________________________ Thank you again for your support and prayers.

Hello Again Saturday, Apr 24 2021
Uncategorized 6:29 pm
After more than eight years, I’ve restarted this blog.
I’ve deleted all other social media accounts. No more Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. I now only use Telegram. I had been using Facebook more as a blog, until I decided to stop being a product for Facebook. I encourage everyone to leave Facebook, and instead use sites like Gab and Telegram.
I also had a FB page called “Clamare,” which provided an outlet for some specialized content. Clamare is still on Facebook, but I no longer actively update or maintain it.
It is my hope and intention to use this blog to provide the same kind of content that I was publishing to Clamare. Drop me a line/post a comment, and tell me what you’d like me to blog about. I’ll also be posting resources to the “Index” page of this blog.
What do real Catholics do now? If your parish is terrible, leave it! Saturday, Nov 10 2012

Death of a Nation Friday, Nov 9 2012
Catholic 9:47 pm
Clearly, I have been in denial for several years. I thought my view of the world was skewed, due to spending 13 years in the liberal gulag of Massachusetts.
I was wrong. The electorate has turned to the left. Some of the conservative blogs I read maintain that this is not the case. Yeah, and they said the polls were wrong, too. Why would I trust them now? Anyway, I realize that I am no longer a conservative, but a traditionalist. Big difference. I never felt I had much in common with neo-cons anyway…not that I took much time to understand why. (See here for my little advertisement for traditional Catholic values. Some of Dr. Senior’s former students are now bishops in the US. If I ever come back to the US, I want to live in one of their dioceses. )
Michael Barone was wrong. George Will was wrong. Some dude named Jay Cost was wrong. They clearly don’t recognize the electoral map anymore. I have to say I don’t recognize my country anymore.
Tucker Carlson opined that the biggest group that voted for Obama in this election are unmarried people. This is the most concerning statistic of all. (Full disclosure: I have never married, but apparently my voting behavior is that of a married person.). There are more unmarried people than ever before in the history of our nation. We are a country of people who cannot or will not commit. That changes how we view the world. Rather than take solace and security in a personal lifelong secure relationship that forms one’s first and innermost “world”, unmarried people look to the outside world – the state – to provide that solace. (Of course, this does not take into consideration the unmarried for religious reasons, or the unmarried Catholic laity, most of who would have voted for Romney.)
This means that culture matters in elections. Our culture – our values – overwhelmingly determines our voting preferences.
My other gripe is about the pathetic swing states of the Rust Belt. I grew up there. Yes I know they are traditionally Democrat. But the Democratic Party left these people behind in 1968 – they are simply too obstinate to see that. Again, this comes back to culture: someone who was raised in a union household – who now wouldn’t recognize a union if it camped on their doorstep – this someone votes Democrat. Someone who was raised in a Catholic household, but who was not properly taught the Faith (thanks to the failures of good catechesis and the crisis in Faith caused by Vatican II) — that someone thinks it is ok to support a candidate who opposes a ban on partial-birth abortion. The Hispanic demographic is included in this “failed Catholic voter” category – Hispanic Catholics did not vote according to the Faith, because they have lost theirs. They care about immigration, not abortion. But immigration is not an Article of Faith. Opposition to abortion is.
Which brings me to my point. This election showed us conclusively that Catholic voters have no clue. We have officially lost our way. When we attend Mass (usually on weekends only), we don’t really mean what we say in the Creed. It’s just lip service. We don’t vote according to our Faith. We say and do one thing at Mass, and then we go out into the world and behave like pagans. Cause these days, pagans have nice stuff and they are represented by people like George Clooney and Ellen DeGeneres – that seems so fun and harmless, really. Ellen says “Be kind to each other” and opposes bullying. That could be called saintly behavior, if it weren’t for the layers of sin and disobedience underneath.
I thought the pagans were confined to our two coasts. They are not. They have taken over the regions to which our grandparents emigrated to work in the steel mills and the coal mines. In some cases, they are the children and grandchildren of those immigrants. That is because they were not taught the Faith properly. They have assimilated into the broader, secular society. They think this is OK. But Faith is not an assumption – it is a gift. It can be lost. Obama supporters in Ohio and Pennsylvania are attached to their cultural heritage, but they are clueless about the Catholic values – specifically the Catholic Faith – that created that heritage. When disconnected from the Catholic Faith that created it, that heritage becomes nothing more than a museum exhibit.
Three years ago, when I left the US to live abroad (for the third time), I felt guilty. I thought I was betraying the work and suffering of my four grandparents who left their homelands to live a brighter future for themselves and their children in America. Now, seeing how the country made their selection last Tuesday, I think my grandparents would approve my decision.
My Rant on Denying Reality Sunday, Apr 15 2012

As the title indicates, this is a rant about denying reality, not an attack on working mothers. Many mothers I know work because they have to. My comments in (bold parenthesis) because apparently WordPress struggles with the color red.
Sheryl Sandberg: ‘There’s No Such Thing As Work-Life Balance’
The Huffington Post | By Bianca Bosker Posted: 04/ 7/2012 9:58 am Updated: 04/12/2012 12:18 am
Pasted from <http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/06/sheryl-sandberg_n_1409061.html?view=print&comm_ref=false>
Sheryl Sandberg is the chief operating officer of Facebook, a mother of two, and an outspoken advocate for women leaders. (Uh, not all of us, OK, HuffPo? Stop treating women like some homogeneous bloc. Didn’t work for our policy for Yugoslavia – won’t work here either. Idiots.)
Here’s one more reason she rocks: (SS rocks? I’ll be the judge of that, thanks.) she doesn’t pretend it’s easy.
“So there’s no such thing as work-life balance. There’s work, and there’s life, and there’s no balance,” (Now this is probably the most insightful thing SS has said in this interview. And I argue that b/c “there’s no balance” is exactly why mothers working full-time in very powerful jobs like SS’s are kidding themselves that their family is not neglected. The US corporate structure is a large, hungry beast that must be fed with resources, time, energy. It is a beast that makes only a glancing, token gesture toward providing “work/life balance.” Rubbish. The beast wants its pound of flesh, and it really does not care if you are married, single, parenting or not. It wants what it wants. And if you want to give it what it wants, you do so at the peril of your family.) said Sandberg in an interview for the Makers series from PBS and AOL, The Huffington Post’s parent company. Sandberg described pumping breast milk while on conference calls at the office during her time at Google.
The Facebook COO acknowledged the difficulties of being a working mother trying to juggle family responsibilities with a high power job. She also shared practical things women — and, importantly, men — can do to help women succeed in their careers and make a challenging situation work a bit better. (How about this for “practical,” SS? How about your family tries living on the meager salary of your husband? Come on – try it. I bet you wouldn’t even have to move to East Bay. There’s gotta be some house in Palo Alto you could afford. But then, if you quit Facebook, would Barry still choose you to host $30K a plate fundraisers at your house? Hmmmmmm…)
Women should choose a spouse who will support their ambitions, not only by offering words of encouragement, but by doing half of the work at home, from changing half of the diapers to doing half of the laundry, Sandberg advised. (Well, a spouse should probably be doing this anyway, regardless of the job arrangement. But what do I know?)
“The most important thing — and I’ve said it a hundred times and I’ll say it a hundred times — if you marry a man, marry the right one,” (Again, wise words. Girlfriend has a bit of yenta, which is nice to see. At least she didn’t say “Keep getting divorced and remarried until you find the right one.”) she said. “If you can marry a woman, that’s better because the split between two women in the home is pretty even, the data shows.” (Um, ok, wait a minute: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY? Men and women are interchangeable, sayeth all-powerful-Oz. How utterly ridiculous, and just more proof that the Bay Area is a hellhole of amorality, where the rich make the rules, and recycle their garbage to feel less guilty about their latest IPO. But ask them a moral question? They’ll answer it in cultural Marxist terms, every time. That is because they live in a fantasyland echo chamber of their own making. Fantasyland, CA 90210.)
Women face two key challenges men do not, Sandberg argued: they experience guilt for working full time, and the more they succeed, the less they’re liked. (I’d like these people more if they weren’t so insufferable.)
“I feel guilty when my son says, ‘Mommy, put down the BlackBerry, talk to me’ and that happens far too much. (If this line is not one of the most heartbreaking things you have read in the past few years, then I don’t know what is. Go back and read it again. Here is a woman’s offspring begging her to mother him. Can she not figure this out on her own? Why does her son have to tell her? I thought she was all smart and stuff?) I think all women feel guilty. I think what’s interesting is I don’t know many men who feel guilty,” Sandberg said. (Pay attention folks – this is what 2 degrees from Harvard will buy you: The capability to regard biological roles and the emotions inherently attached to them as “interesting.” Look, I am not a mother and if I were, I don’t know if I’d be a very good one. All I know is, one day in 1998, I was on a train from Munich to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. There was a young couple with their infant sitting next to me. I heard the baby cry a certain way, and immediately thought: “Oh he’s tired.” Immediately thereafter I thought: “Where did that come from?” There is only one place that thought can come from, people, and it wasn’t from a Harvard education, lemmetellya. It’s from something far more lasting — it’s called gender.)
“I don’t know a lot of men who feel guilty for working full time, it’s expected that they’ll work full time…(Again, some remedial coursework is clearly required here. Why on earth would men feel guilty for working full time? It’s only if a man is not working full time that he would feel guilty! Why? Because not working full time means he is not taking care of his family. See how that works? Man: work full time – fulfill need and role to take care of family. Woman: work full time – feel guilty for not fulfilling need and role of taking care of family. This is only hard because people deny the truth. Sheesh, it is so annoying.) I wonder if there were more shared responsibility if more men would feel guilty too and women would feel less of it.” (Sorry I missed that one. Is the goal now to make men feel guilty too? So that women feel less guilty? What the hell is going on here? Is this about making more gender war, or raising healthy, well-adjusted children?)
Sandberg noted that for years she’s left work at 5:30 PM so she could be home for dinner with her children, but has only recently started saying so publicly. Her hope, she said, is that discussing it openly will encourage others to feel comfortable doing the same. (Maybe when they are grown up at least the kids will say “We used to see Mom at dinnertime, and sometimes she would even put down the Blackberry to talk to us.” Dunno if that would make me feel great as a Mom but hey, what do I know?)
Helping women to reach their full potential requires the world to become more accepting of powerful and successful women, Sandberg argued, adding that women face a tradeoff between success and likability that men do not. (Agreed. Again, I would argue that this occurs PRECISELY BECAUSE men and women are different. Is the answer to make us interchangeable? I don’t think so. Let’s try to stick to reality, Fantasyland dwellers. Please.)
“A woman, if you’re most intelligent or most likely to succeed, that’s an embarrassing thing or something that’s not considered attractive, and that’s something we need to change,” said Sandberg.
The Facebook COO was herself voted “most likely to succeed” in high school. She forced the yearbook editor to bury the title and pick someone else for the award, she said.
Sandberg added, “I want to tell any young girl out there who’s a geek, I was a really serious geek in high school. It works out. Study harder.” (Again, an area on which I agree with Mme. Sandberg. But if a girl studies hard, gets into great schools, and finishes one or more degrees, then goes on to get married and have a family, DON’T YOU DARE make her feel stupid or inadequate for wanting to be a stay-at-home Mom to raise her children, rather than outsource this crucial role to paid help.)
