"BLACKPOOL, United Kingdom (LifeSiteNews) — Two English homosexuals have been charged for allegedly brutally raping and killing a one-year-old baby they were on the verge of adopting.
The BBC reports that 36-year-old high school teacher Jamie Varley and his “partner,” 31-year-old John McGowan-Fazakerley, were in the process of adopting 13-month-old Preston Davey, who in July 2023 was taken to Blackpool Victoria Hospital and soon died.
Varley, who was suspended from his teaching job upon his arrest that year, is accused of numerous counts relating to murder, sexual assault of a male child, child cruelty, inflicting grievous bodily harm, taking and distributing indecent photos of a child, possessing indecent pseudo images of a child, and possession of an “extreme” pornographic image. McGowan-Fazakerley, meanwhile, stands accused of allowing the death of a child, child sexual assault, and child cruelty.
“Following the decision to charge Mr Varley, and the nature of those charges, Cidari is now considering its position in relation to Mr Varley’s employment. This will be done in consultation with other agencies and within the relevant legislation and statutory guidance. We will not be making any further comment at this time,” Matt McIver, COO, of the Cidari Multi Academy Trust under which Varley was employed, said, adding that he “was suspended on full pay as we are legally obliged to do.”
The Mirroradds that members of baby Preston’s biological family could be seen weeping at a brief hearing at Preston Crown Court, where they were acknowledged as “most welcome” by Judge Robert Altham.
According to the UK’s national adoption information service First4Adoption, single individuals have always been legally able to adopt, and unmarried couples, including homosexuals, have been permitted to adopt since 2005.
The website insists that the “quality of parent-child relationships” and children’s “psychological development and wellbeing” are “just the same when children are adopted by lesbian or gay couples compared to heterosexual couples.”
But a substantial amount of social science literature supports the truth that children are best served by homes with both a mother and a father, as each sex tends to bring unique strengths and emphases to parenting, which complement one another; and gives children a positive role model of their own sex as well as helping them to understand and relate to the opposite sex. By contrast, a homosexual male “couple” by definition lacks a mother, and a lesbian “couple” is unable to provide a father, in addition to exposing a child to sexual depravity and various other problems linked to homosexuality, such as drug abuse, domestic violence, criminality, and mental illness.
In recent months, numerous homosexuals, including public figures, have been charged with childabuse, raising growing concerns about homosexuals’ access to children."
See if you see what I see regarding these appointments.
(Leave a comment and let me know what you think about the appointments that Leo has made since taking over the throne of St. Peter. I think we practicing traditional Catholics are in for a very rough ride.)
"VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo today appointed a rank of members to the Vatican office overseeing religious orders and the Latin Mass communities, including some cardinals who have opposed the traditional Mass and supported blessings for same-sex couples.
As outlined in the Holy See Press Office bulletin on June 24, Leo XIV appointed 19 new members to the Dicastery for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life (DICLSAL).
The new members include 5 cardinals, 5 bishops, 4 priests, 4 religious woman and one lay woman.
Among the cardinals are certain notable figures, such as:
Cardinal Arthur Roche: prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship under Pope Francis who led the late pontiff’s charge against the traditional Mass and enforced restrictions on it.
Cardinal Cristóbal López Romero: Archbishop of Rabat who has supported blessings for same-sex couples in light of FiduciaSupplicans, adding that synodality is a “prophetic sign” for the world, and that opponents of its decisions are “morally obligated to support” them.
Cardinal Giorgio Marengo: the second youngest cardinal and the Apostolic Prefect of Ulaanbaatar, the Catholic territory encompassing Mongolia numbering around 1,000 Catholics.
Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa: Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, famous for offering himself as a hostage exchange in 2023 and considered papabile in the May 2025 conclave.
Cardinal Jaime Spengler: Archbishop of Porto Alegre and president of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil along with the Latin American Episcopal Council (CELAM). Spengler has given mixed messages about his support for the highly controversial Amazon rite, while also supporting FiduciaSupplicans’ blessings for same-sex couples.
Other non-cardinalatial appointments to the dicastery include male and female religious superiors, along with Luisa Muston, a lay woman who leads the secular institute called the Missionaries of the Infirm “Christ the Hope.”
It is quite normal for cardinals to be appointed to various offices of the Roman Curia, particularly so for those who are already working in the Curia or who have occasion to be in Rome more frequently.
On May 9, Pope Leo already requested all Curia leaders, members, and secretaries to remain temporarily in place until further notice, meaning that a notable number of cardinals are already members of the dicastery.
But the names nevertheless always contain significance and can highlight preferences identified by the reigning Pontiff for particular Roman offices.
Pizzaballa is perceived as a conservative member of the College of Cardinals, as is Marengo, while others named by the Pope today would align more with liberal or “moderate” sectors on varying issues.
Roche is already prominent and well known for his opposition to the traditional Mass.
But Spengler and Romero have gained less notoriety in the English speaking world. Romero was raised to the episcopate by Pope Francis in 2018, made cardinal in 2019, and participated most recently in the Synod on Synodality.
Following FiduciaSupplicans and the furor over blessing same-sex couples, Romero deviated from the Africa-wide rejection of the document led by Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, and later defended his position on the text when asked by this correspondent.
The document became one of the most hotly contested of Pope Francis’ pontificate, with many theologians and prelates calling on Pope Leo to issue a formal clarification of the text.
Spengler has also defended the text. In a 2023interview he commented that that Church “can’t deny” blessings on same-sex couples, adding that the Church must “meet every authentically human need.”
More uniquely, Spengler has been linked to the controversial “Amazon rite” of the liturgy. Created cardinal in December, Spengler told me in October that married deacons and priests may be a help for regions with few priests, adding that the Amazon rite and indigenous inculturation of the liturgy is taking place in Brazil.
He confirmed that the local Amazonian bishops were “speaking of the possibility of a specific rite for the Amazon region – this is a fact.” However he also sought to link back to the universal Church, noting that “on the other hand there is also something that says the following guidance: today in the Latin Church we have the Roman rite and the Roman rite must be inculturated in the different realities.”
Speaking to The Pillar around the consistory in December, Spengler downplayed the idea of an Amazon rite or of female deacons and married clergy. Such questions, he said, “require further study.”
Continuing, he stated:
I always like to say that there is a single rite in the [Latin] Church: The Roman rite and this rite needs to be and is called to be adapted to the different cultural realities. Creating the conditions for this adaptation requires, I believe, the best means for us to find the necessary means for inculturation to happen harmoniously. It’s not a question of bringing in a rite from outside to make reality adapt to it. Moreover, how many cultures are there in that reality?
Increasingly prominent Vatican office
For a long time the DICLSAL has flown somewhat under the radar, apart for those keen to stay abreast of Vatican affairs. But under Pope Francis it has become increasingly prominent, especially due to the documentCor Orans and Vultum Dei Quaerere, which ushered in tighter Vatican control over religious life and has been widely – though often quietly – used against convents and religious orders noted for being too traditional for the liking of Roman officials.
In addition to restricting already existing groups, a 2022 Rescript via the dicastery prevented diocesan bishops from autonomously establishing any groups of the faithful looking to become religious institutes or societies, in a move which was described as an attempt to prevent any new traditional communities from being formed.
Not least in the reasons for the dicastery’s new found prominence is the highly controversial appointment by Pope Francis of a religious woman – Sister Simona Brambilla, M.C. – as the prefect, rather than a cardinal, earlier this year. In order to attempt to satisfy the canonical requirement which is necessary when signing documents or wielding authority, Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime SDB was made the pro-prefect.
The FSSP is currently undergoing an Apostolic Visitation from the dicastery, after having a meeting with Pope Francis in 2022 who confirmed their constitutions and that they are exempt from the “general provisions” of TraditionisCustodes.
The arrival of a staunch anti-traditionalist figure such as Cardinal Roche to the dicastery will be key to observe what impact such an appointment has for the future of these traditional communities. It was only last year that Cardinal Gerhard Müller remarked that “a senior representative” from Roche’s office was dismayed to hear of the popularity of the Latin Mass Chartres pilgrimage, solely due to the traditional Mass being celebrated.
As of the past few weeks, the dicastery now has a female religious serving as secretary, a move welcomed by activists as a sign of continued female leadership in the Church under Leo."

But! Where is the justified declaration of ex-communication of the apostate "Catholic" Gov. Hochul?
Remember, this bad actor is a radical pro-abortion advocate along with another sin that cries to heaven for vengeance -- supporting the sodomites and their diabolical, family killing agenda. On these two heinous and mortally deadly sins, she should have been ex-communicated years ago!
I'll post this article from lifesitenews.com and written by ClareMarie
"ALBANY, New York (LifeSiteNews) — The archbishop of New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, has blasted the state’s attempt to legalize assisted suicide.
In a June 17 podcast interview, Cardinal Dolan denounced New York legislators for pushing through the “Medical Aid in Dying Act,” which would allow patients given a prognosis of six months or fewer to live to be prescribed euthanasia drugs, upon affirmation by two doctors that they have “decision-making capacity.”
“This is the cheapening of human life,” Dolan declared.
Dolan warned of the effects of the proposed legislation, especially on the young, saying, “Think of this, you got an 18-year-old teenager who wants to commit suicide and so calls the doctors and says, ‘I’m depressed so I’m going to take my own life, or you kill me.'”
“[The doctor] says, ‘Oh well you call back tomorrow. We’ll give you 24 hours, and we’ll do it,'” Dolan continued, stressing the “trauma” to family and friends which results from a young person taking their own life.
Dolan also discussed the redemptive suffering endured by the elderly in long-term care. He revealed that while his mother suffered for a long time in the hospital, she valued her life and would not have ended it prematurely.
“God’s ways are not our ways,” he explained, noting that sometimes suffering can seem pointless but God always has a greater plan.
As of June 10, the New York legislature has given final approval to the assisted suicide bill, requiring only far-left Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul’s signature to become law.
Dolan expressed hope that Hochul, a self-proclaimed Catholic, would veto the law, given her “sensitivity with mental illness.”
Recently, several prominent Americans have voiced opposition to the legislation, including Patients Rights Action Fund (PRAF) executive director Matt Vallière, Live Action’s Bridget Sielicki, and Bishop Joseph Strickland.
“True compassion does not eliminate suffering by eliminating the one who suffers,” Strickland reminded New York lawmakers. “Rather, it means walking with the sick and dying and offering authentic palliative care, emotional support, and spiritual accompaniment. It is in these moments – when we are most vulnerable – that we must be reminded that our worth is not measured by our health, our productivity, or our independence, but by the fact that we are beloved children of God who are made in His image and likeness.”
On Friday, June 20, British Parliament passed new legislation to allow residents of England and Wales who are aged 18 and over deemed “terminally ill” and “expected” to die within six months to end their lives prematurely with the involvement of physicians.
The dangerous effects of a euthanasia culture are visible in Canada, where patients are waitlisted for health care but have ready access to euthanasia.
The most recent reports show that MAiD is the sixth-highest cause of death in Canada. However, it was not listed as such in Statistics Canada’s top 10 leading causes of death from 2019 to 2022.
When asked why MAiD was left off the list, the agency said it records the illnesses that led Canadians to choose to end their lives as the primary cause of death.
According to Health Canada, in 2022, 13,241 Canadians died by MAiD lethal injections. This accounts for 4.1 percent of all deaths in the country for that year, a 31.2 percent increase from 2021."

Well, it looks as though President Trump ordered massive bombing of Iran's "nuclear" sites...
Is this what America needs or wants?
(If you want to follow the breaking stories, they are all over the media and blogosphere; pick whatever you want and get the grim details.)
It should be obvious that we are fighting Israel's war for them, not for us!
I wonder how many U.S. citizens are for this madness!?
I would think that those who have not been in war, don't know what it is really like, especially for those non-combatants that are always -- always! -- the casualties along with the perceived enemy.
I don't know where this will all lead, but it could be the beginning of the millions of illegal aliens -- and the terror cells among them -- to start our own internal "Red Dawn" coming to a neighborhood near you!
Don't discount this very real possibility!!
Pray for strength and honor -- and for world peace!
As I have written many times, we cannot pin all our hopes on any one politician or political party, but only on Christ Our Lord and Savior!
The rein of Christ as King of our individual hearts, souls and of our nation, must be established.
It is either Christ or chaos!

Republican Representative James Hinds was murdered by KKK Democrats in the closing weeks of the 1868 election. Hinds supported voting rights for former slaves
Happy Juneteenth!
Today is the day the United States celebrates Juneteenth, a little-known date that was recently dug up to divert attention from the real civil rights achievements by brave Republicans who fought to free the slaves.
Here is more background.
When the Civil War ended, and after Republican President Abraham Lincolnliberated the slaves, Democrats initiated Jim Crow laws to punish blacks. Democrats discriminated against blacks. In fact, the KKK was founded as the terrorist wing of the Democratic Party.
The Ku Klux Klan assassinated many Republicans, including Republican Representative James M. Hinds (December 5, 1833—October 22, 1868) of Little Rock. Hinds represented Arkansas in the United States Congress from June 24, 1868, through October 22, 1868, before his violent death.
The Ku Klux Klan was founded as the activist wing of the Democratic Party.
On September 28, 1868, a mob of Democratsmassacred nearly 300 African-American Republicans in Opelousas, Louisiana. The savagery began when racist Democrats attacked a newspaper editor, a white Republican and schoolteacher for ex-slaves. Several African-Americans rushed to the assistance of their friend, and in response, Democrats went on a “Negro hunt,” killing every African-American (all of whom were Republicans) in the area they could find. (Via Grand Old Partisan)
Democrats in hoods slaughtered hundreds of Republicans and blacks across the country. They beat and threatened and murdered Republicans for standing with the black man.
On April 20, 1871 the Republicans passed the anti-Ku Klux Klan Act outlawing Democratic terrorist groups.
The last KKK official to serve in Washington, DC was former Senator Robert Byrd, a KKK kleagle. Byrd was a top Democrat and friend of Joe Biden.
(My emphasis.)
In fact, throughout the Civil Rights era of the 19th and 20th centuries, Democrats fought against freedom and rights for the black man.
The only blip of positive news during the 19th Century for Democrats was the long-forgotten Juneteenth celebration. After the Great Emancipator, Abraham Lincoln, was murdered by a Democrat, his successor, Andrew Johnson, sent US troops to Galveston to free the slaves there in Texas.
This is the only bright spot for Democrats today in the entire history of civil rights in the 19th and most of the 20th centuries.
Hence, they bamboozled Americans and made it a national holiday. They had to.

I contend that the vast majority of the Demonrat Party is possessed by Satan, at least their intellects. And, if that is the case, then when these miscreants use their free will in decision making, what other result can there be but an evil decision?!
