"These words of Christ: 'Thou shouldst not have any power against me, unless it were given thee from above', contain great matter of consolation for the just who are in sufferings: for being persuaded by the light of faith, that nothing happens to them in this world, but what is the effect of the loving conduct of God toward them, they mind not the malice of men, or of devils who torment them: they regard only the Divine Love which afflicts them for their good; receive with love His chastisements and trials; and humble themselves under His omnipotent hand with an entire acquiescence." - Thomas of Jesus

[Memento Mori @TempusFugit4016]

"If you possessed a particle of the true Cross, you would greatly honor and cherish it. But why do you not love and honor that cross, those trials which God sends you? They are a particle of the Cross of Christ most beneficial to you if you bear it patiently" - Fr. Francis Xavier

Saint Louis' final words to his son Philip, moments before the Crusader king passed away:

“Fair son, the first thing I would teach thee is to set thine heart to love God; for unless he love God none can be saved. Keep thyself from doing aught that is displeasing to God, that is to say, from mortal sin. Contrariwise thou shouldst suffer every manner of torment rather than commit a mortal sin. If God send thee adversity, receive it in patience and give thanks to our Saviour and bethink thee that thou hast deserved it, and that He will make it turn to thine advantage. If He send thee prosperity, then thank Him humbly, so that thou becomest not worse from pride or any other cause, when thou oughtest to be better. For we should not fight against God with his own gifts.”

[Pascal @KnowsPascal]

If anything painful or disagreeable happens to you, immediately offer to God what you have to suffer, and unite your will to His. Accustom yourself to repeat in every trial: ‘It is the will of God; it is my will also.’

-St. Alphonsus

Look at all the mugshots. There is no reason for this animal to still be alive. It's completely insane that we don't just execute chronically violent barbarians who do nothing with their lives except inflict suffering on innocent people.

Fernandez is utterly incompetent to hold his office. "You must accept the Second Vatican Council, but we won't tell you precisely what you must accept because we can't even work out a list of binding propositions 60 years later" isn't something you can demand of anyone.

I can accept it happened as an historical event. Does that count? Considering how sloppily Fernandez's decree of excommunication was written, it's obvious the man is in over his head and doesn't have the theological acumen for the job.

A child born in America to a family that has been in America for 10 generations has the same citizenship as a child born in America to a family that snuck over the border 10 minutes ago.

Insane.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

The actual “birthright” belongs to my children, and the children of all real Americans. They have a birthright to live in a country that resembles the one our ancestors established. And now that birthright, the only true birthright, has been destroyed in favor of the imagined “birthright” of children born to parents who don’t even belong in this country and who have no ancestral or cultural ties to it whatsoever. Total madness. Suicide. Words cannot describe how evil this is.

[Aesthetica @Anc_Aesthetics]

Any constitution that says that a foreign enemy can drop millions of future enemy soldiers into your country and there's nothing you can do about it isn't worth the paper it's written on.

[The Chivalry Guild @ChivalryGuild]

Birthright citizenship is really good for those who want the country to be conquered as effortlessly as possible.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

The idea that a pregnant woman from Guatemala can sprint across the US border, have the baby 30 minutes after arriving here, and the baby is magically a citizen of the US, is one of the most retarded and indefensible notions ever conceived

[9mmSMG @9mmsmg]

If birthright citizenship is upheld, the only recourse is to drastically restrict all visa workers and restrict entry to our country entirely. I don't see any other path moving forward.

[FischerKing @FischerKing64]

I took a look at this. It's a good outcome, but let me fill you in on a few facts so you understand how crazy it is that we had to litigate this at all.

In 2016, there was such a huge surge of migrants on the border that DHS couldn't possibly process them all. So it set limits, and would allow a small number into the US each day to be processed, and those people could then start the process of requesting asylum. The people standing at the border who couldn't get processed right away then filed a class action lawsuit, claiming their "rights" were violated. The District Court agreed with them, and the Ninth Circuit affirmed.

So our courts ruled that migrants - people who are not citizens of the United States - can use American law to sue the American government basically to let them in. That's a little simplified but more or less the case.

The statutory issue is when a migrant can be considered to have "arrived in the US." The lower courts held that a migrant has "arrived" the moment he reaches the border and has any contact with US border patrol. So when an agent STOPS someone from entering, the District Court and the Ninth Circuit ruled that the migrant had in fact "arrived" in the USA, such that he can take advantage of our laws and sue our government.

That is the madness that SCOTUS put a stop to today. Keep in mind also that this lawsuit has been going on since 2017. So for nearly 10 years, we have wasted resources to get a SCOTUS ruling that is just basic common sense.

The Feminists sure are quiet about 250,000 UK girls being raped by Pakistani men.

Weird!

[Ryan Grant: Cigar smoking pseudo-intellectual 🚬 @chesterbelloc3]

I would ask the Pope, that before he talks about this stuff, he would meet with the families of girls raped by migrants, boys stabbed by migrants, or relatives beaten, beheaded, and butchered by criminal migrants. Let him show some pastoral concern for their dignity.

[John Carter @martianwyrdlord]

It's really impossible to exaggerate just how martially pathetic Muslims are. They've spent the last twenty years bragging that they're conquering the West with their wombs, as if getting subsidized by welfare and coddled by the most treacherous governing class in the history of the Western world made them all Saladin.

Then a few lads in Belfast throw some petrol bombs in their general direction and they start whimpering like little bitches.

Just an absolutely contemptible, effeminate culture of sadistic little bullies.

[Humble Flow @HumbleFlow]

I have no sympathy for the argument that someone should be allowed to stay simply because they want a better life.

Millions of people around the world want a better life.

That doesn't give anyone the right to enter or remain in another country.

[9mmSMG @9mmsmg]

Our tax dollars feed generations of our murderers. Rip the bandaid off and end all public assistance. There will be good people who get caught in this who are struggling and honestly that really sucks, but we can support them through private charity.

Look at crime statistics and see how many of the perpetrators and their families are on public assistance. It's staggering. We are giving them money so they can be well fed, reproduce and housed. We are making them more effective criminals.

Per Grok:

~20% of people in state prisons reported relying on income from non-job sources- including public assistance, Social Security, retirement, unemployment, or disability benefits- in the 30 days before their arrest.

Over a third (~1/3) of prisoners have received public assistance at some point in their lives.

~42% reported their family received public assistance (welfare) while thev were growing up (pre-18).

We are funding our deaths, the theft of our property and we are still hated for it. It's pure lunacy.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

This is so devastating. Imagine being a black parent tonight. How do you protect your children? If they go out and stab just one person, they might go to prison. It’s like a black man in America can’t even murder anyone anymore. Unimaginable. Jim Crow all over again. I’m furious.

[9mmSMG @9mmsmg]

If you see people upset at Karmelo Anthony being found guilty of murder, understand something. It's not because they thought he was innocent. They're just upset the jury made a ruling that you can't just stab White people in the heart and not go to prison.

That's what it's about.
