Catholic Bishop François-Xavier Nguyễn Văn Thuận, later made a cardinal, endured thirteen years in prison under Vietnam's communist regime, nine of them in solitary confinement. During his imprisonment, he quietly evangelized through his unwavering faith, kindness, and forgiveness. He made small wooden crosses, celebrated the Eucharist in secret, and treated his guards with charity and respect. According to his own testimony and later biographical accounts, some guards were deeply moved by his witness, and authorities periodically reassigned them when they became too sympathetic toward him.
I find it equally remarkable how some on the left are trying to play down the alarm caused by these images
There are none so blind as those who will not see
My full speech at the @OxfordUnion debating whether the west is right to be suspicious of Islam.
I needed a security team to attend and we were spat at, bullied and heckled by a baying mob.
But I will not give up on free speech.
I will not submit.
Candace Owens fans have been scrambling to prove that Candace wasn’t really trolled by Andrew Wilson for over 24 hours now.
But in doing so they’re only proving his point.
I don’t know if Andrew is really behind these accounts or not. And neither do you. The accounts could literally be anyone.
Which is why nobody in their right mind uses anonymous comments on social media to back up their claims.
The fact that there’s even a possibility or a question if these accounts could belong to Andrew is a problem.
Why?
Because Candace presented these random comments as if they’re professional opinions from medical experts.
And she does this on her show very often saying that “medical professionals” or “law enforcement officers” and etc reached out to her with this or that.
And she never shows the sources.
Because 9 times out of 10 her “sources” are Bigbootymomma1987 on YouTube or Greyfox334043 on X.
@Journey749@Suzierizzo1 Yes, the smell of billions in fraud from California and Minnesota and NY is what they all like. The stench of the fraud train ending is tough to stomach.
Hello Hunter Biden.
Thank you for sharing your views on the oil and gas business.
We know you worked for foreign oil and gas entities primarily Ukraine’s Burisma and China’s CEFC China Energy.
This is interesting given your lack of measurable talent or experience in this business.
Burisma Holdings is the Ukrainian natural gas producer that put you on their Board of Directors in April 2014 - again despite your lack of talent or experience - while your father oversaw U.S. Ukraine policy as Vice President.
You earned approximately $1 million per year ($83,333 per month) but that was reduced to roughly $500,000 per year starting March 2017 when your father was no longer in office.
You served until April 2019 - which is surprising despite your lack of talent or experience - but it was a good gig while you had it.
You and your associates (including partner Devon Archer) earned approximately $6.5 million for being your father's son.
Not too bad for not having any experience in the energy sector or any discernible talent in deal making.
But lets not forget your work with the Chinese.
You worked for CEFC China Energy, the Chinese oil and gas conglomerate with reported CCP and military intelligence ties from 2017–2018.
CEFC and related entities paid approximately $4.8 million to companies controlled by you and your Uncle.
Your total work for for CEFC and related Chinese energy entities to the Biden family/associates was over $8 million.
These figures come from bank records, IRS search warrant applications, congressional memos, court documents, and contemporaneous reporting.
(We will leave out your work with Kahzhakstan and other questionable enterprises.)
And what is surprising to all of us is that after earning nearly $20 million working for foreign owned oil and gas companies when you post stupid things like this it is clear that after 10 years and $20 million dollars.
YOU STILL DON"T UNDERSTAND THE OIL AND GAS BUSINESS.
But thank you for sharing your views anyway.
Good luck on your comeback tour.
@JohnCleese Ahhh Mega Dinghies. Here's a few facts about these boats.
1. Someone bought them. (Money trail)
2. Someone transported them to Calais. (Money trail)
3. Someone has the logistics structure in which to put them together and inflate them
🚨 A Tucson police officer stopped a mass shooter just seconds after he opened fire into a crowd, leaving nine people injured. Police say the suspect was already on probation for a 2024 shooting.
Amazing work. 👏🏾
