Tomorrow, Jan. 20, 2025, America celebrates the inauguration of President Donald J. Trump. It will be a good day for this nation. For whatever faults Donald Trump may have, I think he cares about America and the American people. This one simple fact puts him head and shoulders above nearly every other Western head of state. Indeed, his administration represents a vast improvement over the outgoing Biden Regime headed by a Jesuit agent, who, from the time of his inauguration to the very end of his term in office, never ceased making war on the Constitution and the American people.
The most obvious example of Biden’s hatred of the American people is his allowing 10 + million illegal aliens to flood our nation along with the imposition of all the attendant costs, both monetary and non-monetary, that resulted from this decision.
Joe Biden’s hatred of our constitutionally guaranteed liberties and the property and lives of the American people, though remarkable, is by no means an isolated case in the contemporary West. Of all the oddities of the post-Christian West, the one that stands out in my mind is the degree to which Western governments, almost without exception, clearly despise their own people.

Perhaps you’ve read about the famous Christmas truce of 1914.[1] As WWI was getting underway, Allied and German soldiers, much to the horror of their commanders, decided during Christmas that they preferred celebrating peace on earth to killing one another.
Christmas 2024, on the other hand, saw a war break out. Not a shooting war of the sort raging in Europe in 1914, but a war of ideas. This time, the battlefield wasn’t France. It was X. And the opposing forces weren’t the British and German armies but was more of a civil war, pitting Trump supporters against other Trump supporters on immigration.
Immigration is a big topic. The Christmas immigration war of 2024 was focused on one aspect of the subject: the H-1B visa. More to the point, the focus was on the incoming Trump administration’s desire to remove the country cap that currently limits the number of H-1B visas issued to a particular country. India was the focus of this battle, as the bulk of H-1B visas are issued to Indian tech workers. Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and others argued that more H-1B visas would help America “win.” Others were upset, seeing the proposed increase in H-1B visas as opposed to Trump’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) agenda.
My Comments: Is Antichrist going bankrupt? We can always hope so. According to the link below, donations are down, and the Vatican’s pension is majorly in the hole. Things are looking kinda bleak for the seven-headed beast, but something tells me he’ll probably manage to find a way to keep on keeping on.
A bit of history…Many people don’t know this, but Antichrist was financially on the ropes in the early 16th century. Things got so bad that Church-State had to suspend construction of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome for lack of funds. The report is that weeds were springing up out of the unfinished columns. Definitely not a good look. Bad curb appeal.
This prompted Rome to send out its indulgence salesman extraordinaire, Johannes Tetzel. And it was Tetzel’s hawking indulgences that got a certain Augustinian monk fired up enough to post 95 theses on a church door in Wittenberg. Funny to think that the Lord used the Vatican’s wobbly finances to kick off the Protestant Reformation.
In case you’re wondering, indulgences are still a thing with the Vatican. In fact, as the article below notes, “Pilgrims, lured by the promise of indulgences and spiritual renewal, are anticipated to inject much-needed revenue into the Vatican’s coffers.”
Maybe Antichrist has a 21st-century version of Johannes Tetzel waiting to hawk those indulgences.
Maybe it’s time for another Augustinian monk to do his thing.

Antichrist never stops his irredentist immigration war and America, so American Christians ought never to stop exposing it.
It’s always tempting to suppose that we can defeat Antichrist – by “Antichrist,” I mean the Pope of Rome, currently Jorge Bergoglio, dba Francis I – with one sermon, blog post, or presidential election. But if the Protestant Reformation couldn’t finish him off for good, there’s no reason to suppose that going to the polls in November and voting for the candidate who promised to end Jesuit Joe Biden’s illegal alien assault on America will finish him off for good, either.
As a friend likes to say, we’re pretty much stuck with Antichrist until the Lord returns. He’s right. And I don’t say that to come off as a downer but because I believe that’s what the Bible teaches.
Here are a few stories that show Antichrist is alive and well and determined to continue its irredentist immigration war on the United States.
“Catholic Charities servicing refugees at accelerated rate” is a story Carolyn sent me from a local TV station in Amarillo, TX. One notable line from this piece is, “The new [Trump administration] policy could make the reunification process go from monthslong to a yearslong process.” This is a lie. Families can be reunified immediately by those illegally residing in the United States returning to their families in their countries of origin. This they can do at any time. When Rome or those sympathetic to Rome talk about “reunification of families,” they mean bringing in more welfare migrants and forcing Americans to pick up the tab.
Of course, we can’t overlook the term “refugees” either. What Catholic Charities calls “refugee resettlement” is simply their euphemism for illegal alien resettlement. And even if they are not illegal aliens and actually are refugees, contrary to Antichrist’s evil and incompetent economic and political thought, they have zero claim on the property of the American people.
Timed to coincide with the feast of “Our Lady of Guadalupe” on December 12, the bishop’s statement is titled “Am I Not Here, I Who Am Your Mother?” which are the words the demon impersonating the biblical Mary supposedly said to Juan Diego when it appeared to him in 1531.
It’s not often appreciated the extent to which Antichrist invokes the words or images of its demon goddess of Guadalupe to justify its immigration invasion of the United States. But once you begin to see it, as the saying goes, you can’t unsee it.
In their letter, the California bishops decry the “fear” that exists among “so many we shepherd in our dioceses” due to big, bad Donald Trump’s threats of mass deportations. Question, if the Roman Catholic bishops are harboring so many individuals they admit to knowing are illegal aliens, does this not make them guilty of aiding and abetting the crime of illegal immigration? Doing so is a violation of U.S. law. The Trump administration should arrest those bishops for their illicit activities and deport them back to their daddy in the Vatican.
After saying, in effect, that the Church-State will continue with its illicit aid to illegal aliens, the lying Archbishop laughably goes on to say, “We certainly do not encourage illegal immigration.”
Apparently, the Archbishop doesn’t believe bearing false witness is a sin.
Dogs bark, and ducks quack. It is their nature to do so; expecting them to do otherwise is foolish. So it is with Antichrist. He and his lying henchmen in Catholic Charities and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops will continue to lie and steal and subvert, for it is their nature to do so. They can do no other. Christians must realize this and never let up exposing their evil, just as our Reformation forefathers did.

Trump to end birthright citizenship for illegal aliens on day one.
Some of the best news on the immigration front I’ve ever heard is Donald Trump’s promise to sign an executive order to end birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens on day one of his term in office. Trump called the practice “ridiculous,” which indeed it is.
Of course, the Antichrist Roman Catholic Church-State, its frontmen, and other groups with a vested interest in committing treason against the United States of America will howl and scream and beat their breasts in opposition. Expect serious pushback from them, as all these evildoers know full well how important awarding citizenship to the children of illegal aliens born on American soil is to their treasonous, irredentist immigration assault on America.
Donald Trump introduced MAGA to American voters during the 2016 presidential campaign. MAGA (Make America Great Again) was a shorthand for Trump’s America First political platform of lower taxes, less government regulation, border control, ending foreign wars, and re-industrialization.
MAGA was back again in 2024, and, once again, the message of America First proved popular with voters. The name “America First” dates to the 1930s and 1940s, when concerned American patriots wanted to keep America out of the brewing wars in Europe and Asia. Perhaps the best-known spokesman of this movement was the famed aviator Charles Lindbergh, who has been described as “a leading voice of opposition to U.S. involvement in World War II.”[1] The America First Committee’s influence came to an end with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.[2]
My Comments: It’s not just Springfield, Ohio that’s being targeted by the Biden Regime. It’s numerous small towns in conservative states that are being deliberately flooded with Haitians and probably other alien groups.
Here are two links to stories on Logansport, Indiana, and the problems caused by all the Haitians sent there thanks to the treasonous, Jesuit-influenced Biden regime. Logansport is in the north-central part of the state, not far from Peru, which is where my great-grandmother Carper was born and baptized in a German-speaking Lutheran congregation in 1892.
One of the big complaints from the people in Logansport is the way Haitian students are taking school resources from the children of residents.
One mother is quoted saying, “There were way too many kids, and it seemed to her [the daughter in school] that since they didn’t speak the language, or didn’t understand what was going on, they were getting more attention,” the mother told the Post. “You can’t just focus all your resources on one group of children and everybody else is falling behind.”
The highschool age daughter said, “It’s like the teacher is so busy with them that no one else gets to learn anything, it feels like.”
Now I have to hand it to the Biden Regime and the Roman Catholic Church-State. These guys are not just evil. They’re evil geniuses. Not only are they successfully importing a constituency for their party and parishioners to fill pews, but they’re sticking Americans with the bill to pay for it all!
But there may be a silver lining in all this for Americans. As the Biden Regime’s aliens take over schools, one option open to American parents and students is homeschooling. The daughter in these stories has taken this route.
Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment reads in part,
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
The purpose of the amendment – adopted on July 2, 1868, shortly after the end of the American Civil War – as Michael Anton noted in his Washington Post opinion piece,
[W]as to resolve the question of citizenship for newly freed slaves. Following the Civil War, some in the South insisted that states had the right to deny citizenship to freedmen. In support, they cited 1857’s disgraceful Dred Scott v. Sandford decision, which held that no black American could ever be a citizen of the United States.
A constitutional amendment was thus necessary to overturn Dred Scott and to define the precise meaning of American citizenship.
That definition is the amendment’s very first sentence: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.”
The amendment clarified for the first time that federal citizenship precedes and supersedes its state-level counterpart. No state has the power to deny citizenship, hence none may dispossess freed slaves.[1]
Pregnant foreign nationals staked out in Mexico admit they are looking to cross the United States-Mexico border with “the goal” of securing birthright American citizenship for their anchor babies, a new report details, Breitbart. This is but one facet of Rome’s irredentist immigration assault on America.
Irredentism
“America is a dying nation. I tell the Mexicans when I am down in Mexico to keep on having children, and then to take back what we took from them: California, Texas, Arizona, and then to take the rest of the country as well.”[1]
Irredentism is probably not a word many of us use in our day-to-day conversations, but it’s an important concept when discussing Antichrist’s immigration assault on America. We defined irredentism earlier in this talk. But if you want an example of it, it would be hard-pressed to find one better than the preceding quote from Roman Catholic priest Paul Marx.
Irredentism, Christian J. Pinto tells us, is Jesuit immigration warfare.[2] It is the idea that by flooding America, a historically Anglo-Protestant nation, with millions of Roman Catholic immigrants – whether they are legal or illegal immigrants, it matters not – the popes, cardinals, bishops, priests, and nuns of Rome hope “to secure” America “to [their] holy church.”[3]

Strangers No Longer is a Socialist Document
“Migrant crisis has US taxpayers on the hook for up to $451B, House GOP report says.”[1] That’s a real headline in the New York Post from November 2023.
According to the article,
Americans could pay up to $451 billion to care for migrants who entered the US illegally, but have been released into the country or escaped from custody, according to a new report due out Monday from House Republicans and obtained exclusively by The Post…
Compiled from federal and state records, media reports and other public information, the 50-page document outlines the taxpayer costs incurred in medical care, housing, education and other welfare benefits for tens of millions of migrants — to say nothing of the additional costs for law enforcement.
One could argue that this report is biased in that it was put out by the GOP while a Democrat was in the White House.
The Post article cites another study by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) claiming that “federal, state, and local costs of illegal immigration amount to around $182 billion annually—with aliens defraying just $31 billion of that cost in tax revenue.” That means American taxpayers are on the hook for $151 billion.
