Remember when the neocons killed Charlie Kirk and then covered up the crime scene and then turned his show into an extended claim by the new hosts that they were not involved in killing him?
“Of course, the Orthodox view is that it is not the guilt as such, but the effects of sin. A child, a baby, is not born guilty, but inherits the effects—the impact of our sin”
- Fr. Spyridon Bailey

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

כשג'יי די ואנס אומר הערב ש"טראמפ הוא ראש המדינה היחיד שמגלה כיום אהדה לישראל" וכי "שני שלישים מאמצעי ההגנה שהגנו על ישראל יוצרו בידי עובדים אמריקאים ומומנו מכספי משלם המסים האמריקאי", הסאבטקסט של דבריו הוא: "אף אחד לא אוהב את מדינת היהודים, שחיה מכספם של משלמי המסים האמריקנים"
I'm always fascinated by depictions of landscapes that wildly differ from what they're really like. Pieter Bruegel painted this thinking "yes, this is what ancient Judea looked like."
@eugyppius1 I get what they’re saying (better if it wasn’t emotionally charged) but they also don’t understand that the autist German Nigga just wants the paperwork filled out correctly 🤷♂️
Sounds fair to me
Some interesting things in his past:
-Ordained as a deacon and then priest in 2011 by Metropolitan Elpidophoros. He has served parishes in the U.S.
-there is a documented personal and financial connection between Fr. Emmanuel Lemelson and Metropolitan (later Archbishop) Elpidophoros, though it is not centrally tied to the major GOARCH financial controversies.
-Shortly after the ordainment, Elpidophoros became a client of Lemelson’s Amvona Fund. He invested church money in it.
-In 2012, he founded Lemelson Capital Management and the Amvona Fund
-He became known for activist short-selling, notably targeting Ligand Pharmaceuticals in 2014 with detailed reports alleging issues, which led to a significant stock drop and profits for his fund.
-The SEC sued him in 2018 over the Ligand short, alleging false statements and efforts to manipulate the narrative. A 2021 jury found him liable for some untrue statements (Rule 10b-5) but not for a broader fraud scheme. He was fined $160k and received a 5-year injunction.
-He is not currently the rector of a major active parish
-He has positioned himself as a dissident exposing Wall Street and government corruption.
-Recent activity includes criticizing "digital Orthodoxy" influencers and priests like Fr. Trenham
"I don't know if you understand that ... be yourself, be an American Orthodox Church, not a Syrian Orthodox Church. It is natural that Orthodoxy in America will become an American Orthodox Church through you, not through me. We are born in our own countries, we have our own background, our own identity, but you have to come with your own identity, and with the destiny of this country, because there is a goal which this country has to reach. If you read in Prophet Daniel, chapter 10, every nation has an angel, the angel of the Egyptian people, it says there, the angel of the Hebrew people is Michael, the archangel, and so on. Who is the angel of the American people? Well, we have to think about that.
This nation is not just at random; it has a history. And never, never hate the religion that you came from; always to thank God for my Baptist Church, my Evangelical Church that made me understand Orthodoxy and to come back to church. Thank God, because the basics were there, and the fact that you were sincere in that denomination in which you were before, that is important because the Holy Spirit brought you home. Thank God for my Presbyterian Church that made me understand Orthodoxy, and pray for them, and wish for them to find the Church, no matter how many you are. You never are in a minority if you are with the Truth. If you are with the Truth, even if you are one, you are a majority."
-- Blessed Father Roman Braga, transcribed excerpt from Fr. Roman Braga speaking in 1995 at St. Ignatius Antiochian Orthodox Church, Franklin, TN
Pope Leo's anti-remigration statements are not a coincidence following Rupert Lowe's publishing of the "rape gang inquiry." He is essentially saying that he does not care how many innocent people were violated and murdered you have to care for these people because "muh dignity"
