Olympics Opening Ceremony Features Drag Queens Mocking Biblical 'Last Supper' Scene

Bishop Barron slams 'gross mockery' of Last Supper and Christian Faith  during Olympic Games opening ceremony - Catholic Herald

The opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France, turned heads while prompting backlash from some faith-based viewers.

The intro featured an eccentric performance that depicted a drag queen dressed as a blue smurf alongside other drag performers dancing on a runway, striving to build up excitement for the opening games.

The ceremony also included a “headless Marie Antoinette,” the last queen consort of France prior to the French Revolution who was married to King Louis XVI. 

Antoinette was found guilty in a trial in 1793. She was famously sentenced to death and beheaded by a guillotine. 

This is crazy. Opening your event by replacing Jesus and the disciples at the The Last Supper with men in drag. There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate

Another featured scene in the opening ceremony was a drag performance that recreated “The Last Supper,” which is described in the Christian Bible and was depicted in the famous painting by Italian High Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci between 1495–1498.

The Last Supper visually represents the last time that Jesus broke bread with his twelve disciples before he was arrested and hung on a cross. 

Additionally, the Last Supper also marks the first-ever sacrament of Holy Communion, in which Christians are united with Jesus Christ (Yeshua), receiving his grace and forgiveness. 

“Queens everywhere! We couldn’t be happier about this huge moment for drag performers breaking through the mainstream and showing their talents to the entire world,” wrote Out Magazine, a publication for LGBTQ community.

An estimated 320,000 people are expected to be in Paris for the Summer Games.

The full opening ceremony is expected to last a total of four hours.

BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA – JULY 13: Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump is rushed offstage during a rally on July 13, 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Former President Donald Trump fearlessly announced that he will be returning to Butler, Pennsylvania, the town he was nearly assassinated in.

Trump plans to hold another rally in honor of slain firefighter Corey Comperatore, 50, as well as the two other victims who were injured during the July 13th rally by the 20-year-old gunman.

“I WILL BE GOING BACK TO BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA, FOR A BIG AND BEAUTIFUL RALLY, HONORING THE SOUL OF OUR BELOVED FIREFIGHTING HERO, COREY, AND THOSE BRAVE PATRIOTS INJURED TWO WEEKS AGO. WHAT A DAY IT WILL BE – FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Secret Service has been heavily scrutinized by members of Congress, both Republicans and Democrats, since the failed assassination took place, leading to the resignation of former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle.

Trump, his team, and GOP supporters have since raised over $6 million for the victims’ families, as well as presenting Comperatore’s firefighter gear on stage at the RNC convention.

Since then, Trump, his team, and Republicans who support the former president have donated more than $6 million to the victims’ relatives, and the RNC even displayed Comperatore’s firefighter gear on stage at the event.

Nevertheless, no details have been announced as to when and where Trump will hold the rally, although the Secret Service has urged Trump’s team to start holding rallies indoors for safety reasons.

The Shamelessness Pool Just Keeps Getting Deeper

Kamala Harris slammed for 'cringe' response to border questions: 'Not a  joke to laugh at' | Fox News

The 2020 election was irregular.  Not satisfied with mere irregularity, the Democrats have now managed to fill the top spot on their ticket with a woman that has never ever received a vote in a nationwide election – ever.  She did not need to bother with those pesky primaries, not even, unless something changes radically, an irritating floor battle at the convention.  Nope, somehow she has managed to be coronated.  And so, irregularity becomes a coup d’etat.  And now Kamala Harris takes to the campaign trail without a hint of humility or an ounce of shame.  You might think we had hit the bottom of the pool of shamelessness.

But no.  The media has decided to find some sort of Mariana Trench in that pool.  They are just flat-out reinventing Kamala Harris, contradicting, almost entirely, previous reporting they have done.  It’s way past spin.  Here are some examples chronicled by:

One has to wonder, is this really partisanship, or just a total and utter failure to do any actual research? It’s a fail either way, but we can’t fix it if we don’t properly diagnose it.

Democracy is breaking down before our very eyes. One of the two major parties no longer functions in any vaguely democratic fashion and the media, the means by which the people are informed so that they can hold their government accountable is now largely in thrall of that government.  The feedback loop to the voters is seriously broken.  Being informed now requires a lot of careful media consumption and it is impossible using television exclusively.  I do not typically watch TV news, ever, but events have been breaking so fast in the last couple of weeks that I have had to and it’s actually frightening.  When the host says “Special Report with Bret Baier” is the only reasonable news program left on TV, he is not kidding.  And I have to be honest, particularly when the news is breaking fast and furious and Baier has to settle for available panelists instead of reliable ones, even his anchoring can get a bit out there.

A couple of weeks ago I picked a fight with an adult Sunday School teacher over their use of the word “reimagine.”  You hear that word a lot these days, but here’s the thing – life is not about what we imagine – it is about what is.  But apparently our media now thinks it is about what they imagine, and worse their imagination can shift on a coronation.

There is an old lawyer joke, “What’s lower than whale poop?…”  Well, there is now a corollary, “What’s lower than the Democratic party presidential candidate selection ‘process’?”  The answer would be “Legacy Media.”

YouGov Poll: 92 Percent Say Harris Complicit in Biden Health Cover-Up

YouGov: 92% Say Kamala Complicit<br class='hidem'> in Cover-Up of Biden Decline

Ninety-two percent of Americans say they believe Vice President Kamala Harris knew about President Joe Biden's apparent failing health, a recent survey shows.

A YouGov/Times of London poll of 1,170 registered voters was conducted July 22 to 23 after Biden's announcement to end his reelection campaign. It had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.2 percentage points.

When asked, "to what extent, if at all," was Harris "involved in covering up Biden's health," 68% responded "a great deal," 17% "somewhat," 7% "a little," 4% "not at all," and 4% "not sure."

Seventy-eight percent of Republicans, 73% of independents, and 82% of self-identified conservatives polled said they believed the extent of Harris' involvement "in covering up Biden's health" to be "a great deal." Twenty-two percent of Democrats, 31% of self-identified liberals, and 57% of self-identified moderates agreed.

A super PAC affiliated with former President Donald Trump capitalized on Harris' alleged complicity, launching a new ad this week, in which a narrator says, "Kamala was in on it. She covered up Joe's obvious mental decline. Kamala knew Joe couldn't do the job, so she did it. Look what she got done: a border invasion, runaway inflation, the American dream dead."

The poll also shows Trump ahead of Harris by 2 points, and he remains the leading candidate on the economy and immigration, as well as foreign policy and crime. Harris leads him on the issues of abortion and the environment.

Carl Bialik, vice president of data science and U.S. politics editor at YouGov, interpreted the results more positively, saying Harris is "starting out as strong as Biden was," The Times reported.

"Biden withdrawing and Harris coming forward as the presumptive candidate all runs up against any effects we might have seen from continued fallout from the TV debate, the assassination attempt, the convention, and the selection of J.D. Vance. Certainly, the convention and running-mate nomination can be positive events that give a candidate a bump, so we may be seeing the canceling-out of those effects by the change from Biden to Harris," he said.

The poll showed 54% of voters said they believe the United States is ready to elect a woman as president — down from 63% when the same question was asked in 2015, the month after former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced her run for office.

"If you look at the question of whether people are ready for a woman president now versus 2015, you might hope for nine years of progress. Instead, you see a significant drop in whether Americans think the country is ready," Bialik said. "There's this widespread belief that women would have no chance with a big chunk of the electorate."

Only 35% of Democrats polled said Harris should pick a male running mate; 6% said she should pick a woman.

"There's a belief that it's a real disadvantage to be a woman running for high office," Bialik said.

It's Time for Rashida Tlaib's Expulsion From Congress

Rep. Rashida Tlaib holds "war criminal" sign during Benjamin Netanyahu's  speech to Congress - CBS Detroit
Netanyahu Defends Israel in Speech to Congress - The New York Times

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib's behavior during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday was more than reprehensible.

It was definitively grounds for expulsion.

Tlaib sat stone-faced, having no other version, and taunted Netanyahu during his speech with an auction-style paddle that alternately read “War Criminal” and “Guilty of Genocide.”

The Michigan Democrat, who is Palestinian American and one of just three Muslim members of Congress, now moves beyond being a simple anti-American oddity and is nearly indiscernible from the radicals in Washington, D.C., who on the same day removed and burned American flags at Union Station, replacing them with Palestinian flags.

She and the protesters you saw yesterday are practically interchangeable. Given the opportunity to hold up a “war criminal” sign, those anti-American scum in the street would have leaped at the opportunity. Likewise, given a chance to burn an American flag and replace it with a Palestinian flag, Tlaib would almost assuredly happily swap roles.

“I have a message for these protesters,” Netanyahu said during his address to Congress. “When the tyrants of Tehran, who hang gays from cranes and murder women for not covering their hair, are praising, promoting and funding you, you have officially become Iran’s useful idiots.”

Useful idiot for those who harbor and promote terrorists defines Tlaib’s short career in Congress. But for some reason, while there was a lot of criticism of her actions from Republican lawmakers, there was a noticeable lack of action.

Tlaib, having already been censured for her anti-Israel comments and for promoting war propaganda from Hamas in 2023, has a rich and established history of obscene behavior promoting terrorist sympathizers and denouncing American allies.

Five months prior to the October 7th terror attack on Israel perpetrated by Hamas and several other Palestinian militant groups, Tlaib posed for pictures and spoke to attendees at an art show advocating for Israel’s destruction and promoting known terrorists.

The Squad member posed with organizers and attendees in the gallery, which featured artwork depicting slogans used by terrorist organizations — “Power To Our Freedom Fighters, Glory To Our Martyrs,” and “Zionism will fall,” among others.

The gallery even featured artwork from a former spokesman of the “Palestinian Islamic Jihad,” a U.S.-designated terrorist group known for conducting suicide bombings. The group, an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, held 30 hostages after the attack on Israel.

‘Power to our freedom fighters.’

‘Glory to our Martyrs.’

Less than two weeks after the attacks that killed nearly 1,200 people (including at least 14 Americans) and wounded another 3,400, Tlaib tearfully incited a pro-Palestinian riot in D.C. by parroting Hamas propaganda about a hospital attack that turned out to be disinformation.

Hundreds of insurrectionists were arrested.

This past April, Tlaib refused to condemn chants of “death to America” shouted at a rally in Dearborn, Michigan, in her district.

Tlaib’s behavior has advanced to the point where it warrants expulsion. Without question.

It’s not okay for a member of Congress to promote artwork and propaganda from known terrorists. It’s not okay for a member of Congress to incite a riot consisting of Hamas sympathizers.

And it’s sure as hell not okay for a member of Congress to passively support chants of “death to America.”

The censure resolution states that the Squad’s most hysterical member – and that’s saying something – “repeatedly displayed conduct entirely unbecoming of a Member of the House of Representatives” and for “dangerously promoting false narratives” about an American ally in Israel.

That behavior has clearly not abated.

Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX) said of Tlaib’s most recent stunt that she needs to be “run out of town.”

It needs to happen, posthaste. Congress’s most blatant “useful idiot” must be removed.

 

Coup Upon Coup Upon Coup

Appeasement guarantees war” – Victor Davis Hanson | The Spectator Australia
Victor Davis Hanson

In March 2020, all the major Democratic primary candidates abruptly, mysteriously, and in near unison withdrew from the presidential race, ceding the nomination to Joe Biden.

Yet Biden had lost the first three races in Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada --and only won his first victory in South Carolina.

Suddenly, on the eve of the Super Tuesday mega-primaries, the candidacies of front-runner Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Elizabeth Warren, and others simply evaporated.

The fear of a front-runner Sanders' socialist victory and nomination -- and thus an enviable landslide loss to incumbent Donald Trump in the general election --had prompted the donor class and shadowy political insiders to act.

And they did so by choosing a perceived moderate, old Joe Biden from Scranton. That required the coerced departures of all his far-left rivals, who had hitherto performed much better than Biden in the primaries.

Now front-runner Biden still displayed obvious symptoms of serious cognitive decline that had only seemed to mount through the 2020 campaign. And his dementia continued to accelerate during his first three years as president.

Biden had deceitfully promised to conduct a healing campaign and a unifying presidency. But once in the White House, his extreme agendas proved the most divisive and far-left in nearly a century.

Rumors of that prior March 2020 Faustian bargain emerged. The Bidens got to serve as useful moderate veneers. So, they enjoyed the ceremonial functions of the presidency while outsourcing the real operations to former Obama officials, consultants, and advisors.

Indeed, Obama did not, as most ex-presidents do, exit Washington upon leaving the White House. Instead, he bought a mansion and stayed close by.

Democrats demonized anyone critical of Biden's obvious mental decline. Their smearing crested during Biden's now-aborted 2024 reelection bid, even as Biden could no longer display even a veneer of mental and physical engagement.

Polls revealed an impending Trump landslide victory in November -- and a massive Democratic loss of Congress.

So suddenly on a Sunday, July 21 -- just days left before state ballots were formalized with the names of the parties' official nominees, and on the eve of the Democratic convention -- party bosses, mega-donors, and Obama puppeteers went into action for yet a third time.

They reportedly threatened candidate Biden with a complete loss of any further campaign funding and raised the specter of invoking the 25th Amendment to end his presidency -- should he not suddenly withdraw from the race and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as his surrogate on the ticket.

In one moment, the choices of nearly 15 million Biden primary voters were vitiated. No delegates were consulted. No other alternative Democrat candidates were even considered.

Biden was dethroned; Harris was coronated -- without much public input or even knowledge of how or why.

Democrat grandees stopped smearing Biden's conservative critics, who had worried over his dementia. Instead, they now trumped opposition criticism of Biden's decline.

Yet Biden most certainly did not resign his presidency. Instead, he promised to serve out his remaining six months in office.

So Democrat insiders not only removed their leading candidate, who for the prior six months had won all the 2024 primaries and almost all the delegates, but insisted that Biden keep Democrats and himself in power -- but only if he agreed to quit the race.

In sum, at the 11th hour of a two-year reelection effort, a cabal arbitrarily decided that Biden might well lose the Democrats the White House and the Congress.

So, they reversed course, now claiming his dementia was so acute as to destroy their November prospects. But mysteriously, his decline was not severe enough to imperil the American people, whom Biden must continue to lead until January 20, 2025.

Furthermore, the bosses' replacement choice, Harris, had entered no primary. She never won a single delegate. Harris also never captured a single delegate in her first and only presidential run back in 2020. She then dropped out of the race even before the first Iowa and New Hampshire balloting.

We have now witnessed three left-wing veritable coups.

In 2020, covert actors decided to ossify the Democratic primary races. Next, they conferred the nomination on a clearly cognitively challenged Biden. He was now tasked with serving as a useful moderate vessel for a virtual, even more radical, Obama third term.

The same operators next assumed virtual control of Biden's presidential agenda, given his accelerating cognitive decline.

When that charade could no longer be sustained, for a third time, they circumvented the normal transparent democratic process.

So, they removed the once useful but now a liability Biden -- while insisting that he was still fit enough to keep the left in power -- until the anticipated Harris victory in November.

And all of this was the shadowwork of those who sanctimoniously lectured America that "democracy dies in darkness."


 

 

What was Kamala Harris’ relationships with Willie Brown? Is this how she slept her way into politics?

Megyn Kelly says Kamala Harris relationship with Willie Brown 'fair game'

Harris satisfied Brown’s sexual desires, and in return Brown boosted her career and placed her on various publicly funded councils for which Harris was well paid. Harris had no qualifications for any of these appointments & frequently did not even attend the councils’ meetings.

Meanwhile, streetwalkers in San Francisco were arrested, prosecuted & sentenced for the acts of either soliciting an act of prostitution or committing an act of prostitution. In other words, young, frightened and often abused women were prosecuted for doing exactly what Harris was doing while Harris received thousands of public dollars and traded sex for money without any fear of retribution whatsoever.

Prosecution of prostitutes continued in San Francisco while Brown was its Mayor and in CA while Harris was its AG and still is considered a crime today.
