Trump CDC Recommends ‘All Adults’ Receive New COVID Shot!!!

Have the American people been betrayed -- again??

I have a hard time trying to figure out President Trump...

I have supported him during his first term, except for the "warp speed" death shot, and now we have wars and rumors of wars ongoing as I write this...

Our gas prices are off the charts! Who would have thought that would happen?

Now, the CDC (a most corrupt organization from the get-go!) is saying we should all get the deadly "covid vaccine," including young ones?

What the heck?

What happened to Robert Kennedy, Jr.?

By the way, the statistics reported in the following article, are way understated as far as deaths and injuries are concerned, this is tacitly admitted!

So, why continue this massive conspiracy of death and mayhem against the American people?

We have to continue praying for the conversion of Mr. Trump to the Catholic Faith!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Calvin Freiburger Tue Oct 13, 2026 - 3:22 pm EDT: Trump CDC recommends 'all adults' receive new COVID shot - LifeSite

"WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – The Trump administration Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is recommending the 2026–2027 version of the COVID-19 shot for most Americans, disappointing Americans who hoped for a retreat from the controversial shot.

In an October 8 post primarily aimed at those who want to have children, the CDC states that the COVID shot “is recommended for all adults ages 18 years and older,” plus “all children ages 6 months–17 years with moderate to severe immunocompromise,” while recommending it through “shared clinical decision-making” for all other children.

“There is currently no evidence that any vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, cause fertility problems (problems trying to get pregnant) in women or men,” it claims. “COVID-19 can make you very sick during pregnancy. Additionally, if you have COVID-19 during pregnancy, you are at increased risk of complications that can affect your pregnancy and developing baby.”

The recommendation may partially have been guided by judicial intervention. In March, a federal judge stayed implementation of a January 2026 memo that intended to overhaul the child vaccination schedule.

Reacting to the denial of fertility problems, Brownstone Institute president Jeffrey Tucker asked, “what evidence do you need? We have clinical trial data, VAERS, V-safe, global data on fertility collapse, and the testimony of countless OB-GYNs, not to mention millions of women who report cycle disruption.” As an example, he cited a study published last year examining more than 226,000 pregnancies in Israel from March 2016 to the middle of February 2022. It identified a “substantially higher-than-expected number of eventual fetal losses associated with COVID-19 vaccination during gestational weeks 8-13.”

Contrary to the CDC’s assurances, there is a large body of evidence justifying concerns about the safety of the shots.

The federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports 39,260 deaths, 223,046 hospitalizations, 22,583 heart attacks, and 29,299 myocarditis and pericarditis cases as of September 25, among other ailments. VAERS submission are not proven cases on their own, but in 2022, CDC researchers recognized a “high verification rate of reports of myocarditis to VAERS after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination,” leading to the conclusion that “under-reporting is more likely” than over-reporting.

An analysis of 99 million people across eight countries published in the journal Vaccine in 2024 “observed significantly higher risks of myocarditis following the first, second and third doses” of mRNA-based COVID shots, as well as signs of increased risk of “pericarditis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis,” and other “potential safety signals that require further investigation.” In April 2024, the CDC was forced to release by court order 780,000 previously undisclosed reports of serious adverse reactions, and a study out of Japan found “statistically significant increases” in cancer deaths after third doses of mRNA-based COVID-19 shots and offered several theories for a causal link. Most recently, studies published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases and International Journal of Medical Science raised the possibility of the shots carrying risks of not only respiratory diseases but even kidney injury.

Democrats are largely united in favor of all vaccines, but the response among Republicans has been conflicted, in part due to the first Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed (OWS) initiative having prepared and released the COVID shots in a fraction of the time any vaccine had ever been developed and tested, which President Donald Trump has refused to disavow, as he considers the record-breaking delivery of the shot a signature achievement of his first presidency.

BREAKING: Pope Prevost Diagnosed With Lung Cancer After ‘Successful’ Surgery!!

In September of 2020, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer (due to my exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam), it was removed, after that I had 30 -- count them -- 30 consecutive radiation treatments that led to chronic kidney disease. I am now between stage 2 and stage 1, an improvement from stage 3 to 4, back in the day.

I wish Prevost nothing but a good outcome from this cancer surgery, and for his conversion to orthodoxy, Tradition, and the perennial teachings of Holy Mother Church.

I ask all to pray for these two requests, further, whether you like him or not, we have a commandment -- from Our Lord Himself -- to pray for those we may consider to be our enemies, but also because he is accepted as the leader of over 1,000,000,000 Catholics the world over.

From lifesitenews.com and written by LifeSiteNews staff Tue Oct 13, 2026 - 4:59 pm EDT: BREAKING: Pope Leo diagnosed with lung cancer after 'successful' surgery - LifeSite

(LifeSiteNews) — The Vatican confirmed Tuesday that Pope Leo XIV underwent surgery to remove part of a lung that included a cancerous growth.

The Holy See reported that the surgery was deemed successful and the 71-year-old pontiff was resting after returning to his room at Agostino Gemelli University Policlinic hospital in northwest Rome.

“The procedure was completed successfully, within the expected time frame and as planned, and the Holy Father has returned to his room,” the Holy See Press Office said.

During the surgery, doctors said there was evidence of pulmonary adenocarcinoma, a common type of lung cancer, and that they removed part of the lung.

“The Holy Father underwent thoracic surgery as scheduled,” Dr. Luigi Carbone and Professor Stefano Margaritora said in a statement after the surgery. “To make the procedure more radical, the lower lobe of the right lung was removed using video-assisted surgery.”

Pope Leo had announced Sunday to a crowd in St. Peter’s Square that a nodule had been detected on his right lung and that he was scheduled to undergo a procedure this week while asking for prayers.

The U.S.-born pope had not been reported to have any health issues since he was elected to the papacy last year.

From Our Lady's Dowry To Satan's Slave... UK Pro-Life (Catholic) Woman Pleads Not Guilty To Praying Silently In A So-Called ‘Buffer Zone’!!

The following "comment" is from a person responding to the story:

"The authorities want to destroy this woman for the crime of praying silently. Meanwhile, the horror story of Muslim rape gangs in the UK that have been active for decades and who victimized around 250,000 young British girls keeps coming out. Central to this story is that the police did NOTHING to stop the Muslim rape gangs. But one single vulnerable woman praying silently has to be humiliated, bankrupted and branded a criminal by the justice system..."

Isn't this happening because England (and the UK) have lost the Catholic Faith, starting with the wholesale sellout to Henry VIII, when he bribed nearly the entire hierarchy with 100,000 Pounds back around 1535 (today worth over 1.2 million Pounds!)? That one en masse apostasy immediately made those treasonous prelates, and others, Protestants!

Now, the "thought police" maniacs are running around arresting folks for silently praying to help stop the killing of pre-born babies!

Pure madness!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Patrick Delaney Fri Oct 9, 2026 - 2:48 pm EDT: UK pro-life activist pleads not guilty to praying silently in 'buffer zone' - LifeSite

"(LifeSiteNews) — Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, a Catholic pro-life activist from Worcestershire, pleaded not guilty to five charges under England and Wales’ abortion buffer-zone law, accusations built around silent prayer near a clinic in Birmingham.

She denied the charges in Birmingham Magistrates’ Court during a preliminary hearing on Wednesday after first being charged in December 2025. She is the first person charged under the national rules, which took effect in October 2024.

The law bars activity intended to influence, or reckless as to whether it might influence, a person’s decision to “access, provide or facilitate the provision of abortion services” within 150 meters of an abortion facility.

The Society for the Protection of Unborn Children reported that the alleged breaches occurred on five days between June and November 2025 outside a facility in the Kings Norton area and that prosecutors succeeded in having the incidents treated as five separate offenses rather than one.

The defense argued that continuing with the prosecution would be an abuse of process. Deputy Chief Magistrate Tan Ikram is expected to decide next month whether the case goes to trial; if it does, prosecutors have said a hearing before January is unlikely.

‘Standing is not a crime’

On the first day of the three-day abuse of process hearing, Ikram noted that the legislation requires an “act” to be committed within the buffer zone, indicating that the current charge was “not properly drafted” and that “the prosecution bear the burden to make it clear.”

He also told the court, “This case is not about abortion rights, it is about a criminal offence which Parliament has defined … Courts are not here to pass judgment on people’s views.”

On the second day, he allowed five fresh charges, “one for each occasion she prayed silently within the ‘buffer zone.’”

According to a press release from Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), Ikram also affirmed that “standing is not a crime … It doesn’t matter how many times you do it, mere presence is not enough.” He went on to instruct that the focus of the case must be on whether or not Vaughan-Spruce had the “requisite intent to influence or harass others,” for which she pleaded “not guilty” to all five new charges.

‘Buffer zones’ being used to punish those holding certain beliefs

Jeremiah Igunnubole, barrister and legal counsel for ADF in London, put the objection more sharply.

“To criminally charge someone simply for holding a certain belief within a certain location amounts to thought policing, which has no place in a democratic society,” he said. “Far from criminalising harassment and abusive behaviour – which are already criminal offences – buffer zones are being used to punish those engaged in peaceful conduct for nothing other than what they think or believe.”

He called the statute “deeply flawed, liable to misuse along ideological lines, and harmful to basic freedoms,” and warned, “If simply thinking the ‘wrong’ thing can result in criminal prosecution, the UK can no longer call itself a free country.”

Vaughan-Spruce subjected to previous failed prosecutions

The latest charges come in the wake of previous attempts by officials to prosecute Vaughan-Spruce for the certain thoughts while standing in a “buffer zone.”

In November 2022, she was arrested while standing silently on the sidewalk in Birmingham. When officers questioned her, she explained that “I might be praying in my head, but I’ve said nothing out loud.” That arrest — also captured on video — went viral and sparked international outrage.

Weeks later, she was arrested again for the “thought crime” of silent prayer. At the time, a total of six police officers attended the scene, with one confirming to her that “you’ve said you’re engaging in prayer, which is the offense.”

In the first case, the courts said that the evidence against her could not be proved. Eventually, the courts sided with her and the police had to apologize for their efforts in 2023.

In 2024, Vaughan-Spruce sued West Midlands Police and won £13,000 ($16,850) in damages, with the court acknowledging wrongful arrest and other violations that its officers conducted.

‘Standing silently and holding certain beliefs’ should ‘never be a crime’

Under the new national buffer zone law, Vaughan-Spruce, who serves as the co-director of the March for Life UK and the campaign director for 40 Days for Life Birmingham, has again found herself facing another prosecution.

Speaking to ADF, Vaughan-Spruce said, “Standing silently and holding certain beliefs in a public space should never be a crime.

“Yet, despite being vindicated of wrongdoing on multiple occasions and receiving a financial settlement after two wrongful arrests, I was once again charged last year for my mere presence within a ‘buffer zone,’ and have today received fresh charges.

“I am deeply troubled by this violation of the basic right to my own thoughts and to my deeply held Christian pro-life convictions.

“I pray that common sense and freedom will prevail, so that no one else has to face criminal treatment for what they believe.”'

Are YOU Confused? ["]Fr.["] James Martin Suggests His Critics Struggle ‘With Their Own Sexuality’...

While this FORMAL heretic, pro-sodomite, maniac is STILL in "good standing" within the synodal "church," he continues to engage in massive and disgusting scandals leading many poor, twisted souls to the infernal abyss.

Of course, this is just more proof of the anti-Christ cabal that has been holding the Vatican hostage for far too long, establishing a false church devoid of sanctifying grace -- and, consequently, the Holy Ghost!

This vile creature continues to spew his anti-Biblical, anti-Catholic filth throughout many dioceses run by fellow traveler "bishops," also enmeshed in the sin that cries to Heaven for vengeance, in one way or another, -- and JUSTICE!

So, now, he claims that -- YOU and I -- are confused about how God created us!

Yep, because we point out this wicked, Martin, and his heresies concerning the sexuality of men and women, he says that we "struggle" with our Creator's design of the complementarity of the sexes!

Again, Martin is in "good standing" within the synodal "church"!

See if you can stomach this article from lifesitenews.com and written by Antonino Cambria Wed Oct 7, 2026 - 2:13 pm EDT: Fr. James Martin suggests his critics struggle 'with their own sexuality' - LifeSite

"(LifeSiteNews) — Notoriously heterodox Jesuit ["]priest["] Fr. James Martin appeared in an X post to call critics of his pro-LGBT “ministry” closet homosexuals.

In an October 6 post, Martin included a screenshot of an apparent apology message from a former critic of his pro-LGBT “ministry,” who had since “come out” as a homosexual and embraced the priest’s errors. The Jesuit, who has repeatedly contradicted the Church’s constant teaching on same-sex “marriage” and gender ideology, commented in the post without evidence that critics of his heterodoxy are “filled with rage” and “struggling with their own sexuality.”

Martin has a long history of contradicting Church teaching on homosexuality and transgenderism. The Jesuit priest frequently speaks of “loving LGBTQ people,” but he equivocates to downplay the fact that he endorses what the Church condemns: gravely sinful homosexual behavior.

The Catholic Church formally condemns homosexual activity and urges homosexuals to live in chastity.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered” and “contrary to the natural law.” The text is very clear that homosexual activity can never be approved and repeats that “(h)omosexual persons are called to chastity.” Homosexual acts are mortal sins; therefore, anyone who commits these sins and does not repent through the sacrament of confession is in danger of hell.

The Catechism adds that the homosexual inclination is “objectively disordered.”

While perhaps some of Martin’s critics do have same-sex attraction, the priest, who officially remains in good standing with the Church, should not condemn the faithful who are following the Church’s teaching and living in chastity. The confusion Martin has spread on this key moral issue may lead the faithful to give in and embrace sodomy.

WATCH: Young Catholics protest Fr. James Martin in Chicago

Indeed, Martin has criticized Catholic teaching that homosexuality is disordered, calling it “cruel,” suggested that Catholic doctrine on homosexuality is not “authoritative,” cast doubt on the biblical condemnation of sodomy, and falsely claimed that homosexuality is “the way God created” people. He has further said he hopes homosexual “husbands” will one day feel comfortable to kiss each other during the sign of peace at Mass.

More Canadian Brain Freeze!! Canadian Woman Approved For MAiD (Assisted Suicide) Because She Could No Longer Cook Sunday Dinner!!!

No, I'm not kidding...

I wouldn't kid about something so bizarre, as well as so anti-Natural Law as helping one to take their own life.

I would also rename assisted suicide -- assisted murder!

I'm not sure what's going on in the minds, hearts and souls of our neighbors to the north, but whatever it is, it violates common sense and obviously those maniacs have lost fear of the Lord, that is, if they ever had it in the first place.

From lifesitenews.com and written by Jonathon Van Maren Tue Oct 6, 2026 - 7:03 pm EDT: Canadian woman approved for MAiD because she could no longer cook Sunday dinner - LifeSite

(LifeSiteNews) — The narrative that Canada’s euthanasia regime is carefully regulated, largely restricted to the dying, and that the regularly reported horror stories are merely sensationalist anomalies has received yet another blow. On October 5, psychiatrists Gary Rodin and Madeline Li laid out their fears in a New York Times op-ed titled “We Implemented Canada’s Assisted Dying Law. We’re Concerned.”

Rodin and Li emphasize that they are both supporters of assisted suicide in principle. Both have “counseled patients about the procedure and assessed whether they were eligible,” and one has “administered the drugs to end patients’ lives.” More than that, they wrote, “together, we created an institutional framework that determined how one of Canada’s largest medical centers would respond to requests for assisted death.” Now, they have fears – and their analysis is devastating to the defenses of Canada’s regime.

“But Canada’s system for assisted death is no longer an option of last resort,” they wrote. “Too many people are receiving the procedure without the opportunity for careful reflection about it with a health provider. In some cases, patients are being approved who should not be. Reports have emerged of people seeking assisted death in the context of poverty or loneliness, raising concerns that they may feel they have no other options.” Even for their cancer patients, they state, “there’s a risk of rushing into it and shortening what can be a meaningful period in patients’ lives.”

That is carefully worded, but read it again. People are being rushed into euthanasia. People who should not be approved are being approved. People are seeking lethal injections because they cannot get what they need, because they are poor, because they feel as if they are a burden. That is precisely what those of us who oppose euthanasia said would happen a decade ago, and what we have been reporting on ever since.

Rodin and Li noted that Canada’s regime is now “one of the most permissive in the world, allowing assisted dying for almost any form of subjectively intolerable suffering that has a medical basis, or even for medically unexplained physical symptoms.” This has resulted in a euthanasia rate that amounts to 5 percent of Canada’s annual deaths. Since 2016, we have seen a silent, sterile bloodbath in this country. Rodin and Li noted that in their view, this is because assisted suicide activists have largely been in the driver’s seat when it comes to policy. Other medical professionals, they stated, share their concerns.

Rodin and Li cited the example of a woman in her 70s who was approved for assisted suicide because she had lost the ability to cook for her family. She had enjoyed cooking big Sunday dinners for her family and felt that she had lost her value when she could no longer do so.

“She sought and received approval for assisted dying after she lost the ability to cook,” Rodin and Li wrote. “She felt she had lost her value to her family. Through counseling, she came to understand that her family valued who she was, not what she did for them. She decided not to go through with ending her life, at least for now. That Christmas, her family gathered and she sat proudly at the table, while others did the cooking and serving.”

She should never have been approved in the first place. Again: When stories like this are reported, legions of Canadians online immediately insist that they are not happening."

Is Prevost (Following Bergoglio, Benedict XVI, And JP II) Pushing For A One World -- FALSE -- Religion??

These prelates are in-your-face modernist/heretics/idolaters, and they don't even care what you and I think. Why? Because they are not Catholic, and they have rejected that Christ, Our Lord is the only way to the Father, that's why!

To preach anything else, is absolute, formal heresy!

If including Benedict and JPII upsets anyone, do the research and find out for yourself.

See if you can stomach this from lifesitenews.com and written by Gaetano Masciullo Wed Oct 7, 2026 - 6:39 am EDT: Leo XIV to join over 300 leaders of false religions at scandalous Assisi gathering - LifeSite

Comment: so, prove me wrong and tell me that Prevost will tell those followers of false "religions" that they must come into the one, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church in order to be saved. I'll bet some big money he won't!

"VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV will travel to Assisi on October 27 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the controversial interreligious prayer gathering launched by Pope John Paul II in 1986, together with representatives of the world’s religions.

On October 6, a press conference organized by the Community of Sant’Egidio announced that the international meeting marking the 40th anniversary of the World Day of Prayer for Peace convened by John Paul II in 1986 will take place in Assisi from October 25 to 27. The event will bring together 384 representatives of religions, cultures, and institutions from 53 countries, with 155 speakers participating in 24 thematic forums. Pope Leo XIV will preside over the Christian prayer service in the Lower Basilica of St. Francis and will deliver the concluding address in the square in front of the basilica.

Marco Impagliazzo, president of the Community of Sant’Egidio, quoting the historian Alberto Melloni, stated that Assisi interreligious gatherings represent “a turning point in contemporary Catholicism’s attitude towards other religions, and a turning point in the vision that non-Christian religions have of Christianity.”

Over the course of the gathering, 13 separate venues will be used for simultaneous prayer by the different religious groups, which organizers say is intended to avoid the appearance of “religious syncretism,” in keeping with John Paul II’s original vision. At the conclusion of the meeting, participants are expected to sign and proclaim a joint message of peace addressed to the world.

In addition to the Pope, Cardinal Matteo Maria Zuppi will also be present, not only in his capacity as president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference but also as a leading figure within the Community of Sant’Egidio, as well as Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, archbishop of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The gathering will feature Andrea Riccardi, the founder of the Community of Sant’Egidio; the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople; Nasaruddin Umar, Indonesia’s minister of Religious Affairs and imam of Jakarta’s mosque; and Hala al-Karib, a Sudanese activist. Chief Rabbi of France Haim Korsia will also be present.

On September 28, during the Pope’s apostolic journey through France, together with other representatives of religions, Korsia signed the Metz Appeal in the presence of Leo XIV, a document that echoes the “Spirit of Assisi” and once again proposes all religions as necessary instruments for “disarming” the world.

The topics of the 24 scheduled forums cover a broad range of issues, including disarmament, climate change, and migration. These discussion sessions will feature representatives of major secular and globalist organizations, foremost among them the Gates Foundation, as well as a number of secular intellectuals.

According to Impagliazzo, the “spiritual unification” of the world is necessary to counter the resurgence of nationalism, which he says is undermining the multilateralism promoted by international bodies such as the United Nations and the European Union. Religions, on his account, can serve as useful instruments in the hands of these institutions for reaffirming their vision of the world.

During the press conference, Impagliazzo also made critical reference to the objections raised by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre from the time of the first 1986 gathering: “I remember the Lefebvrists, the most ferocious critics … because it was believed that continuing these meetings would pose risks of turning the Church into a spectacle … or even of syncretism…. No syncretism: everyone according to their own traditions.”

On October 27, 1986, at the invitation of Pope John Paul II and with the close cooperation of the Community of Sant’Egidio, which decided not to limit the “Spirit of Assisi” to a one-time event, 130 representatives of various Christian denominations and world religions gathered in Assisi for the World Day of Prayer for Peace.

The event immediately provoked indignation in broad sectors of the Church. Among the most controversial episodes was the placement of a statue of Buddha on the tabernacle inside the Church of St. Peter in Assisi.

On October 28, 1999, John Paul II renewed the interreligious gathering with a new large assembly held between Rome and Assisi. On that occasion, Bishop Bernard Fellay of the Society of St. Pius X sent a formal letter of protest to the pontiff, denouncing the revival of a scandal that placed the one true Church founded by Christ on the same level as pagan and heretical religions.

Subsequently, on January 24, 2002, the third interreligious gathering took place in Assisi, once again convened by John Paul II in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York. Particularly scandalous for many Catholics was the joint prayer of Catholic representatives alongside non-Christian religious leaders.

With the election of Pope Benedict XVI, the Vatican hierarchy attempted to recalibrate ecumenical dialogue, but events such as his visit to Istanbul’s Blue Mosque on November 30, 2006, demonstrated substantial continuity with the line of the “Spirit of Assisi.”

On October 27, 2011, Benedict XVI convened the fourth Assisi interreligious meeting, to mark the 25th anniversary of the first prayer gathering. At this meeting, Pope Benedict decided to include atheists and non-believers among the official guests invited to the Basilica of Saint Mary of the Angels.

On September 20, 2016, Pope Francis presided over the fifth interreligious gathering marking the 30th anniversary of the original event, bolstered in part by the significant influence of the Community of Sant’Egidio on the agenda and orientation of his pontificate."
