FBI Probes Amy Coney Barrett's Faith Group

Original Article

Posted By: Beardo, 10/5/2023 5:34:22 AM

The FBI is reportedly probing a Christian faith group that counts Catholic Supreme Court justice Amy Coney Barrett as a member, months after Republicans accused the agency of targeting Catholics. The agency has interviewed several people who claim they were abused by members of the group, People of Praise, sources told the Guardian. (snip) During Barrett's confirmation process in October 2020, her critics hammered on her association with People of Praise, framing the group as radical and misogynistic. Media outlets publicized allegations against the group by a former member who, the Washington Free Beacon reported, has a history of far-fetched claims, litigiousness, and hyper-partisanship.

Is there no depth to which the FBI will not sink? I've come to believe that the Mafia has a better code to live by than the FBI. At least most Mafia members actually like the USA, not so for the TREASONOUS FBI!

Welcome to communism. Joseph Stalin would be proud of these hypocrites. Look at the J6 committee, need any more proof. Then look at Trump's trial in NYC, NO JURY. A Stalin show trial. They are actually spending taxpayer money to pay for this predetermined outcome. The FBI is nothing more than an arm of the commie democratic party. The search and destroy committee.

In this age of rapid communication and nonstop news, “several ;people” aided by voracious attorneys and attention loving “journalists” keep us continually agitated about one thing or another. We hardly know any longer what to be upset about. And the issue usually dissolves without further attention, to be replaced by others as meaningless. FBI related usually means not worth paying attention to.

We will never be safe again until the FBI/KGB is defunded, disbanded, the buildings all sold, all the employees gone, and NOTHING created to replace it. Any and all attempts to "reform" the FBI/KGB will result in quickly getting back to this same situation. Perhaps there might be a "Federal Law Enforcement Interstate Communication Agency" without any investigative or arrest powers to help State Police work together. NO Federal police.

When I was growing up and attending Catholic schools, I was taught that the pope is infallible. But then I read Pope Francis’ updated encyclical letter last week, and now I can only conclude that at least this pope is fallible. In fact, the declaration is so filled with anti-Christian fallacies that one has to wonder whether we have a pope that is actually Catholic.

Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a bill into law that permits children as young as 12 to reside in government-funded “residential shelter services” to undergo mental health treatment or counseling for their gender identity without parental consent or even being informed by doctors. (snip) California lawmakers justify this imposition into parental authority by claiming children identifying as LGBT often face parental rejection, harassment in school, or wider societal stigma, therefore, “obtaining parental consent for a youth who needs support is complicated by the parent or caretakers’ beliefs and stigma about mental health care.”

The DOJ was reportedly set to host an Iranian-backed Iraqi judge who had previously issued a warrant for former President Trump’s arrest before backtracking concerning the meeting. The confab was reportedly set to take place this month.

When it was first revealed that the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” provided funding for 87,000 new IRS agents, Biden administration officials told Americans not to worry. They promised at every turn that these agents would only be set upon those earning over $400,000 a year. (snip) That broken promise comes as no surprise. Earlier this year, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was cornered into admitting that 90 percent of new audits would affect those earning less than $400,000. The new IG report confirms what Yellen was forced under oath to admit, and what many in Congress knew when they voted for the Inflation Reduction Act.

He’s ditched the Dems. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. officially announced Monday that he would run for president in 2024 as an independent, urging Americans to embrace “freedom from the reflex of having to take sides.” The 69-year-old announced in Philadelphia that he would bow out of the Democratic primary, where polls showed him badly trailing President Biden despite going as high as 20% in some surveys. Launching an independent candidacy, the environmental lawyer and anti-vaccination advocate said, would allow him to pursue an agenda that “puts peace and diplomacy first,” would “close the loopholes that bloat our budget” and “rescue debtors instead of the banks.”

Former Trump National Security Adviser Robert C.

I didn’t think we would see these points illustrated so vividly, so quickly,” O’Brien posted on X.

Iran was instrumental in helping Hamas launch a surprise attack against Israel early Saturday and gave a thumbs-up to the attackers in Beirut last Monday, senior members of Hamas and fellow militant group Hezbollah revealed Sunday. Iranian officials helped plan the attack, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources within those and other groups. They said Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps officers had plotted the assault over land, sea and air with Hamas since August, finessing details at several meetings in Beirut. Two other Islamic militant groups were also involved in the planning, the sources told The Wall Street Journal.

The Washington Post is putting a damper on the fall by invoking the "violent history" of America's beloved seasonal tradition: pumpkin spice. The report titled "Fall’s favorite spice blend has a violent history" set the scene of the Dutch's 1621 invasion of the Banda Islands (located in modern day Indonesia), detailing that "Thousands were killed, others enslaved, and many who fled to the mountains were starved out." University of Texas at Austin historian Adam Clulow told The Post, "The Dutch company was later accused of carrying out what some describe as the first instance of corporate genocide. . . . And it was all for nutmeg."

A scheduled “picnic” sponsored by the University of Nevada Las Vegas law school’s Environmental Law Society has been renamed “Lunch by the Lake” due to “diversity and inclusion” concerns. According to a memo obtained by Libs of TikTok, the law group informed members that the word “picnic” has “historical and offensive connotations,” and apologized for “any harm or discomfort” caused by its use. The group’s view mirrors that of the University of Michigan’s IT department from several years ago: “Picnic” was included in a “Words Matter Task Force’s” list of offensive words and phrases along with “brown bag,” “blacklist” and “long time, no see” among others.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a brief update Monday afternoon on Israel's war against Hamas, vowing that "any base from which Hamas operates will turn to rubble." Netanyahu's speech began with some descriptions of the horrors Hamas inflicted on innocents: "This war was forced upon us by a dreaded enemy, animals that kill men, women, children, and the elderly. Children handcuffed that were executed with the rest of their families. Young people were shot in the back, executed, and other horrors that I will not describe here." Netanyahu warned that several Hamas combatants are still within Israel, but that Israeli forces are working around the clock to root them out

After brutally massacring over 600 Israelis and then suffering some retaliatory strikes from Israel, the bloodthirsty jihadis of Hamas now want a truce. The Israeli government is virtually certain to get immense pressure to agree to such a truce, but this is actually the last thing that Israel should do at this point. Even before the magnitude of what Hamas perpetrated in Israel was fully known, calls for a ceasefire became a talking point. Leftist opinion makers from the ridiculous (Antony Blinken) to the absurd (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) began calling for a ceasefire so quickly that the Babylon Bee zinged them with a riotous headline: “Emperor Hirohito

The United States must urgently resolve the chaos at the U.S.-Mexico border, Kevin McCarthy has warned, or else risk allowing terrorists into the country unnoticed and succumbing to a similar attack to that in Israel this weekend. McCarthy, who until last week served as speaker of the House, told The Washington Free Beacon on Monday that the attack should be a 'wake up' call for the White House, and blamed the Biden administration for emboldening Iran to back the plot. He pointed out that known terrorists had already been found among those claiming to be migrants.

According to Khamenei, Israel, which he labels an "enemy" and "foe," is a special case for three reasons.
