Pro tip 1: Don’t pay people $10,000 to help you break American immigration law. There’s an old saying about no honor among thieves.
Pro tip 2: Don’t climb 30 foot high border walls which are obviously there to prevent you from entering the U. S. illegally. Think of them like a giant stop sign saying “don’t do this, it’s a bad idea.”
By following pro tips #1and #2, you’ll be richer and won’t end up in a cast.
“Antichrist’s Illegal Alien Assault on America” by Steve Matthews, The Trinity Foundation, June-August 2024. This is my paper on The Emigree Family of Nazareth, Rome’s 1952 apostolic constitution that applied socialist Roman Catholic Social Teaching to the issue of immigration. It is the document that set forth Rome’s immigration theory, the practice of which is being carried out by the Biden Regime.

Once again, Mark Seitz, Bishop of El Paso and chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’s (USCCB) Committee on Migration, is out there whining because the Biden Regime has put some minor restrictions on the flood of illegal aliens pouring across our nation’s southern border.
In this case, the Biden Regime’s new proclamation “would bar migrants from being granted asylum when U.S. officials deem that the southern border is overwhelmed.”[1] It’s all nonsense. As the AP states, the measure is designed “to neutralize immigration as a political liability ahead of the November elections.” Put differently, the Biden Regime is making a weak attempt to fool voters into forgetting its border treason by putting in place a rule that will do very little to change the disastrous, Jesuit-run illegal alien disaster on our southern border.
But Treason Bishop Mark Seitz’s press release on the USCCB’s website paints it as a humanitarian disaster. Here’s his whine in full.
Terrace Park Cemetery in Holtville, CA, where the remains of numerous, unidentified illegal aliens are buried. These individuals died in the desert attempting to avoid detection by U.S. border authorities.
If you read Roman Catholic immigration material long enough, you’ll eventually come across a story about commemorating migrants who die while attempting to illegally enter the United States.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) posted another such story on their X feed last week titled “At burial ground for unidentified migrants, sisters pray for the dead.” Apart from the obvious doctrinal error of praying for the dead, there is another problem that takes a bit more work to unravel. I’m referring to the problem of the migrant deaths themselves.
The implicit intent of these stories is to shift the blame for the death of the migrants from the treasonous activities of the Roman Catholic Church-State (RCCS) to the American people and their elected representatives.
The moment when migrants break through the concertina wire and storm the border at El Paso, TX, 3/21/2024.
My Comments: Gotta hand it to Jesuit Joe. The man certainly knows how to destroy a nation. Or more accurately, his Jesuit handlers do. Dramatic video from earlier this week shows wanna-be illegal aliens storming through concertina wire in El Paso as national guardsmen try to hold the line.
This madness is 100% a treasonous, organized, and deliberate effort by the Biden Regime to take down America by flooding the country with foreigners whose expenses are paid for by the very American people they are brought here to subvert.
It is an evil plan. It is a diabolical plan. It is a plan with the fingerprints of Antichrist all over it.
So who is this Antichrist of whom I write? Just to be clear, Antichrist is not, as the postmillennialists believe, some figure from the distant past such as the Emporer Nero. Neither is he, as the Dispensationalists insist, some figure to come in the future. Antichrist is here and now and doing his work right in front of our noses. Antichrist is the office of the papacy. An office currently filled by a man named Jorge Bergoglio, doing business as Francis I. May the Lord grant his people eyes to see.

Rome controls the immigration media narrative. If you doubt this, consider the press coverage of the lawsuit brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton against Annunciation House.
The story, if you’re not familiar with it, is that Ken Paxton’s office announced on 2/202/2024 that he was suing Annunciation House, an El Paso-based NGO “after discovering Potential efforts to facilitate illegal immigration.” You can read the press release here.
According to Paxton, there is significant public record information strongly suggesting Annunciation House is engaged in legal violations such as facilitating illegal entry to the United States, alien harboring, human smuggling, and operating a stash house.” Paxton’s aim is to revoke Annunciation House’s registration to operate in Texas.
Predictably, the Roman Catholic propaganda machine immediately kicked it into high gear, with nearly every article posted on Paxton’s lawsuit portraying this a David and Goliath struggle, with Paxton in the Goliath role and Annunciation House as the poor little put upon David.
Here’s a sample of the media headlines from the past two weeks to show you what I mean:
“Ken Paxton’s Annunciation House investigation is the latest attack on religious organizations aiding migrants at the border” – Texas Tribune, 2/24/2024
“Flowers: Texas off base to go after Annunciation House efforts” – Delco Times 3/1/2024
“Opinion: An attack on Annunciation House is an attack on Texas” – El Paso Matters, 3/1/2024
“Editorial: Annunciation House’s charitable acts for immigrants are not crimes” – San Antonio Express News, 2/27/2024
“Texas attorney general sets off religious liberty alarms by attacking a Catholic charity in El Paso” – Baptist News Global, 2/23/2024
“El Paso’s Saint Of The Border Negotiates A New Reality” – New Yorker, 2/23/2024
“Catholic immigrant shelter battles Texas AG, who wants to shut it down” – NBC News, 2/21/2024
Many more such headlines can be found, but I think you get the point. There is a massive media campaign to paint the Annunciation House as the innocent victim of a rogue Attorney General. Note well, these are, for the most part, secular sources. I avoided headlines from openly Roman Catholic sources intentionally, although there are plenty of those as well.
Worth noting is the headline from Baptist News Global. I don’t know much about this organization. A quick perusal of its website suggests that it’s a liberal Baptist group. That it would come out in defense of Antichrist’s treasonous immigration policies is not all that much of a surprise, as many Evangelical and Protestant organizations, even putatively conservative ones such as the Southern Baptist Convention, have echoed Rome’s immigration philosophy of mass welfare migration.
Worth asking is this question, Is it an accident that Rome’s profoundly destructive immigration theory and practice receive such favorable coverage in the new media? The answer is no, it is not. Rome controls the immigration narrative presented to the public in the media.
By “narrative,” I mean the context in which the news stories are set, the way events are explained. Take the headline above, “Editorial: Annunciation House’s charitable acts for immigrants are not crimes.” Calling the millions – some say up to 10 million – people who have poured across our southern border “immigrants” is simply dishonest. This is an invasion, not an immigration, and I’m fairly certain that the editorial writers at the San Antonio Express News know that full well.
A book published in the 1980s titled American Democracy & The Vatican: Population Growth & National Security provides some interesting insights as to how Rome goes about controlling the media narrative. The short answer is that they attack “offending” newspaper’s advertisers.
Father Mullaly concluded this revealing document with a platform of action for punishing critical American newspapers:
1. Do not attack a magazine or newspaper through its editorial department but act through its business office.
2. When a magazine or newspaper is attacking your religion, write to the business manager and inform him that you will not buy the offending periodical again, and mean it.
3. Call the attention of the merchants with whom you deal to the insults and tell them that as long as they advertize in any offending paper you will not buy their goods, and mean it.
4. Tell your news-dealer that as long as you see the magazine or newspaper on his stand as an open insult to you, you will not buy from him, and mean it.[1]
Note that Mullaly’s first rule is not to argue against the publication’s editorial department. That is, Mullaly is not interested in debating ideas. He wants to shut down debate by silencing the opposition.
A survey of American press coverage on the faceoff between Ken Paxton and Annunciation House suggests that Mullaly’s approach to censorship via threat has been highly effective.

Worth noting, the ADL and other Jewish groups use similar tactics when attacking publishes who refuse to bow to their censorship demands. This tweet by the ADL from 2022 is an example of their handiwork https://twitter.com/ADL/status/1588587735711121408?lang=en.

And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Sampson and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the prophets: who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again.
Hebrews 11:32-35
The passage above falls toward the end of Hebrews chapter 11, a portion of Scripture we sometimes call the faith hall of fame. That’s not a bad title to give Hebrews 11. After all, it recounts example after example of men and women from the Old Testament who trusted in the Lord, that is, they believed God’s words, serving as his witnesses.
In vv. 32-25, the author of Hebrews is wrapping up his review of faithful Old Testament saints, quickly passing over a few names and giving examples of their accomplishments. In some cases, it’s fairly easy to discern who performed which of the acts mentioned in the passage. In other cases, it’s not so clear.
One aspect of the deeds mentioned here is that they are not necessarily works we would always think of as acts done in faith. In our own day, many people, perhaps even some Christians, would think of them more as acts of bravery or some technical know-how than as acts done in faith. I’m talking here of such works as “subduing kingdoms,” “becoming valiant in battle,” and “turning to flight the armies of the aliens.” These are works that many would consider more in the realm of secular public policy than anything Christian.
But as Christians, at least those who have a proper understanding of God’s sovereignty, know, there is nothing that happens outside of his will. There is nothing independent of God. There is nothing that is truly “secular” as some would use that word, as if there are some matters that are not subject to God’s decretive and preceptive will.
I say this because one of the besetting sins of contemporary Christians – and I’m talking here about people who claim to believe the Bible, not secular humanists dressed up in Christian clothing – is to suppose that they can adopt the world’s tactics to fight spiritual battles and hope to win.
One example of this is how some Christians have tried to push back on Darwinism by arguing, not for Biblical creation as set forth in Genesis 1, but for “intelligent design.” They will try to undermine Darwinism not by using the Bible, but by employing scientific arguments only. Now there’s nothing wrong with using scientific reasoning as ad hominem arguments to show where the Darwinists are inconsistent. For example, one can argue that the fossil records do not show t the gradual changing of one species into another as Darwinian evolution supposes took place, but rather sharp breaks where entirely new species seem to appear ex nihilo (out of nothing). This undermines the atheistic, secularist arguments for evolution and it’s entirely proper for Christians to bring up this argument as well as other such arguments.
But if all we do is rely on scientific arguments to make our case, then we’re not going to win the fight. Some want to tell Christians “Keep your Bible out of the public sphere” as if only scientific arguments that are supposedly “neutral” are acceptable, while “faith-based” arguments are unacceptable. All arguments are “faith-based” in the sense that they rest on certain assumptions, first principles, called axioms. Science, for example, rests on the notion of the general reliability of the senses.
Uniformitarianism – the idea that the earth has always changed in uniform ways and that the present is the key to the past[1] – is another scientific axiom. But this has not always been the case. According to National Geographic, before 1830, “scientists subscribed to catastrophism,” which posits that the features we see on the Earth came about as the result of sudden change. As Christians, we believe in a Biblical form of catastrophism. As the Scriptures teach, God’s work of creation is his creating all things out of nothing, by the word of his power, in the space of six [literal 24-hour] days, and all very good. Likewise, we hold to Noah’s flood as recorded in Genesis 6-9. But try bringing these Biblical arguments into a modern secular university, and you’ll be laughed to scorn.
And yet as Christians, these are the very arguments that we must make if we are to “turn to flight the armies” of the atheist scholars who are destroying our nation. It should be noted that the people who want to tell you that one species can change into another are the same ones who want to convince you that men can change into women and women into men.
In the end, there are no secular battles. There are only spiritual battles. And this brings me to the main reason why I have written on immigration the way I have. I have framed it as a fight between the Antichrist, globalist, New World Order (NWO) of the Roman Catholic Church-State and the Biblical, Protestant Westphalian World Order (WWO). It is a battle between a false church with a false gospel that saves no one and the true church of Jesus Christ that preaches the true gospel of Justification by Belief Alone and all its implications such as political and economic liberty. Understood this way, immigration is not some secular issue to be argued about using secular arguments, that is, arguments divorced from the Scriptures, but a spiritual battle to be fought by spiritual means.
The Apostle Paul enjoined Timothy to “fight the good fight of faith.” The battle over immigration is not some battle that Christians can pursue as if it were a matter of making conservative political arguments “to own the liberals.” Even the representatives of the Antichrist Roman Catholic Church-State understand that this is a spiritual battle. Read the arguments Rome makes for its immigration socialism. The most important Roman Catholic document on immigration is the 1952 Apostolic Constitution The Emigrée Family of Nazareth. In it, Pope Pius XII attempts to argue that the example of Joseph taking Mary and Jesus to Egypt to avoid King Herod’s persecution is the model for “every migrant, alien and refugee of whatever kind.” According to Rome, when we see millions of illegal aliens pouring across our southern border, we really are supposed to see Jesus and his family. This is all a lot of nonsense as I’ve discussed elsewhere.[2] Rather, it is a Scripture twisting attempt by Antichrist to convince the unwary that the Bible supports theft and world government, when, in fact, it does not.
In Ephesians 5:11, Paul writes, “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.” Rome’s immigration policies of mass, nation-breaking welfare migration is an “unfruitful work of darkness,” and, therefore, Christians are under obligation 1) to have no fellowship with it, that is, we are not to promote it, and 2) are to expose it, or as the King James reads, “reprove it.” And how do we expose Rome’s lies about its irredentist, unchristian, immoral theory and practice of immigration? We reprove Rome from the Word of God. We fight, not as secularists, not as conservatives, but as Christians.
Jesus said, “Apart from me, you can do nothing.” The long string of theological and political defeats suffered by American Protestants over the last 100-plus years tells us what we should have known all along. If we keep sheathed our one offensive weapon, “the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,” not only will we continue to lose every battle, but we will also deserve to lose.
Illegal alien invaders and their camp in Coronado National Forest.
I’ve complained to no end how rare it is for anyone, regardless of how much a critic he is of the Biden Regime’s policy of allowing alien invaders to pour into our nation contrary to U.S. law, to call out the Roman Church-State for its outsized role in this dumpster fire. But I’m happy to report that there are a few exceptions. Wis. Rep. Tom Tiffany is one of them.
In the post below from X, he clearly exposes the evil deeds of Catholic Charities in fostering the invasion of our country.
EXPOSED: The migrant camp in the Coronado National Forest is now filled with illegal aliens.
NGOs – like Catholic Charities & the Red Cross – aiding this invasion must be investigated.
The Biden admin allows this to take place on PUBLIC LANDS all paid for by your TAX DOLLARS. pic.twitter.com/GCL6un6iUj
According to the story, Tiffany and other lawmakers are “now calling the DOB to investigate NGOs such as Catholic Charities, Red Cross (the Red Cross is under Vatican control), etc. for “facilitating illegal immigration.”
