Why do they only support Democratic groups?

We've been highlighting the U.S. bishops' betrayal of foundational American values like the country's borders and freedom of speech, especially religious speech. There are two more we'd like to focus on and will be highlighting during next week's Deposit of Faith Coalition press conference in D.C. Those are the destruction of America's economic might as it relates to fossil fuels, and the second issue is the Second Amendment. Heck, if you gave the bishops enough time, they'd wipe out all ten amendments to the Bill of Rights.

In a democratic republic, people are "free" to work to undermine it. But in the case of the U.S. bishops and their fellow Marxist travelers, they are using tax dollars to do it. Billions of tax dollars over the past few years. Again, we've already highlighted the issue of borders and free speech.

Marxists are the only ones who are allowed to talk.

One of the hallmarks of democracy in the American Republic has been the right to free speech, enumerated, of course, in the First Amendment.

It's so important to safeguard it, in fact, that when the city of Baltimore, working behind the scenes with the bishops, tried to cancel Church Militant's rally against the U.S. bishops' covering up sex abuse, we took them to court.

We won the right to hold the rally, in what's known as the preliminary injunction phase, and now we are engaged in the actual case. It is no exaggeration to say that Church Militant scored a tremendous victory (both on the trial level and in the U.S. Fourth Circuit, one step below the U.S. Supreme Court), a blow to those forces trying to squash not just freedom of speech, but free speech in the name of religious freedom.

...

There are three avenues where the bishops can be hit financially.

First, they can simply have their funding cut off by Congress, where various appropriations committees shovel hundred of millions of dollars to them each year. Second, the IRS code can be amended so that the bishops are required to file public tax returns known as 990s, just like every other religious nonprofits. Currently, they are exempt from that, so it is nearly impossible to track the mountains of tax dollars handed to them. That is wrong. Americans should be able to know exactly how and where their money is being spent, no matter who is getting it.

And third, their tax-exempt status can simply be revoked. They are deeply involved in politicking — for the Democrats. And that kind of blatant political engineering runs afoul of the entire spirit of the tax-exempt status.

A move to defend the Deposit of Faith.

Ever since the sham investigation by the Vatican into Bp. Joseph Strickland a couple weeks back, we've been thinking there's much more at work here than just going after a bishop who posts Catholic truth on social media.

You've got to follow the bouncing ball here — but really, only just a little. The order came from the Congregation of Bishops in Rome to get to Tyler, Texas, and tell him politely to shut up. Stop going on about the Deposit of Faith and Catholic truth and all that stuff. Shut up, Joe.

But ask the question, How did Rome, the newly appointed head of the bishops' congregation in Rome, even know of Strickland?

Well, obviously somebody alerted him (read: the enemies of the Church here in the United States, inside the Church). For the record, that doesn't exactly narrow down the list of suspects, but what we can be certain of is that whoever made the initial reports, it would not have happened if the likes of Cupich or DiNardo or even the apostolic nuncio had not been called first.

Whoever reported it, one or more of these cowardly backstabbers in the USCCB agreed with it and said it would be good.

But ask a further question: These backstabbing bishops not only resent orthodoxy; they also resent America. "America last" is their cheer — as we highlighted in some recent Vortex episodes, that belief in socialism/communism as being superior to capitalism goes way back in the DNA timeline of the U.S. bishops.

They don't care at all about children.

The topic of human sex-trafficking — especially involving children — just does not seem to register on the U.S. bishops' radar.

We could make a side comment there about them not really caring about children in most cases (abortion and sex abuse spring to mind) but we won't say anything further, other than to say that they have an abysmal record when it comes to protecting children.

So it's hard to muster even fake shock at the ever-present news that the bishops continue to create an environment wherein children can be exploited, trafficked by cartels and sexually exploited, all under the cover of "immigration."

This is one of the four major areas we will be covering at the Deposit of Faith Coalition press conference in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, July 20, at the National Press Club.

A reminder — Church Militant will be providing exclusive coverage and livestreaming of that event, beginning at 12:30 p.m. ET.

The Deposit of Faith Coalition is a group of about a dozen Catholic or Catholic-led outfits that are calling for the defunding of the U.S. bishops by Congress.

The bishops' communist staffers at USCCB headquarters in D.C. administer hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars awarded to them each year by congressional appropriations committees and then use that money, with the blessing of their bishop bosses, to promote the decline of America in multiple ways.

One of the most egregious betrayals is the promotion of illegal immigration and the "out of sight" horrors of child sex-trafficking that happens as a result.

Saul Alinsky's mark on American Catholicism.

Despite a spate of recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings appearing to scale back their massive cultural gains, the Marxist force remains aggressively committed to the destruction of this country as we know it.

For years now, Church Militant has been warning of the U.S. bishops' complicity in all of this, even going as far back as the involvement of Saul Alinksy with the bishops.

Almost 14 years ago — yes, 14 years ago — Church Militant produced our very first investigation, and it was on this very topic, the complicity of the U.S. bishops in advancing the Marxist agenda along a broad political front.

This topic is coming around again, and we offer this for you, for your knowledge.

Bad theology and bad politics.

One ingredient related to the Church's leadership, especially in America, that is common to the collapse of both the Church as well as the nation is the current of Marxism so prevalent within the U.S. hierarchy. When Stalin came to power in 1922, he took direct aim at the Catholic Church and set about an immediate campaign to destabilize Her.

While it all does seem to smack of conspiracy theory-type stuff, remember that many of the so-called conspiracy theories over the past few years have proven to be much more than a theory. The same is true here. But since so much of this is "inside Catholic baseball," it has gone largely unnoticed by most conservative secular media.

While it is true that some of this has played out as what appears to be strictly Catholic civil wars, there is another dynamic much less obvious, which is no less present than the theological battles. The culture wars in the United States, it could be argued, really began first inside the Catholic Church, as Marxist notions and applications of socialism began to take root alongside theological errors.

...

And moreover, for another example, it was the bishops' national conference that came out publicly swinging for the fences in favor of Obamacare. It was Catholic Sen. Susan Collins, another product of the incubator, who voted the legislation out of committee and got it to the Senate floor for a final vote. It was her single vote that ensured Obamacare became law. Obamacare should really be called "BishopCare."

Obama proposed it, but the bishops, alongside their theologically corrupt politician sheep, are the ones who brought it to birth. The America we are witnessing before us today has the fingerprints of three generations of bishops and corrupt clergy all over it. *It is the biggest story not told in modern American history.*

Scholarships provided for some applicants!

With the nation collapsing to what seems like the point of no return, and the Church as well like a dumpster fire, it is often hard to know what to do and how to respond. Well, we have some good news on this front.

First, just to get right to it, a very generous donor has contributed enough money in support of our annual Church Militant Strength and Honor Conference to help one person who applies with the conference fees as well as up to $1,000 in travel costs.

Additionally, she has contributed more to pay the conference registration fee for 17 additional men. Notice we said "she" — a very generous lady who understands the importance of men coming together and taking the lead in navigating these very turbulent waters.

All you have to do to apply is simply email SpecialEvents@-nospam-ChurchMilitant.com. Then our team will be back in touch promptly with what you need to do.

The dates of the annual Strength and Honor Conference are Aug. 4–6, the first weekend in August as we normally do. And, of course, it's here in Detroit.

This is the first time we are offering scholarships for some men who would otherwise attend but are hamstrung somewhat by Biden's economy. So for some of you, there are no excuses: You have a very generous lady paying your way.

Your emails have to be received by July 5, and recipients of the scholarship will be chosen at the discretion of Church Militant.

For all other men, please click on the provided link and sign up.

It's important spiritually and psychologically while you're under attack to know there are many allies you have — and, for quite a few guys, they tell us they feel pretty much alone in battle. A kind of emotional or spiritual PTSD can seem to set in, a weariness from the constant sense of having no brothers in arms.

It's certainly not the point of the conference, but it is a very welcome side effect to realize that, as a man, you are not alone. So during much of the downtime, relationships are being forged and some renewed.

So long, Bp. Richard Stika.

Last week, Knoxville Bp. Richard Stika announced his retirement after a lengthy Vatican investigation and extensive news coverage over his alleged cover-up of a rape. Leading the charge in that news coverage was Church Militant, as insiders were providing us much information on his alleged cover-up of a rape.

While The Pillar was first to break the story, for which they deserve credit, Church Militant was the only one to air a video documentary and the only one to expose the texts exchanged between the perpetrator and the victim — a smoking gun that exposed the bishop as profusely lying and made the perpetrator's involvement undeniable.

*Our Church Militant Spotlight investigation, part 1 and part 2, was described as an "earthquake" in the diocese of Knoxville*, and was soon followed not only by the Vatican investigation but also by local newspapers finally covering the story (after remaining deafeningly silent for months).

Defund the US bishops.

Two steps — that's all it takes to jump backward from the collapse of America to the Democratic Party. The step in between is the U.S. bishops; the biggest, most hidden enemy of the republic you never knew you had.

Call them the "America last" bishops. They are both the largest promoters of the Democratic Party agenda talking points and policy issues, as well as the largest recipients of government largesse.

Understand the connection?

The same group of leaders responsible for so much damage in the Church is, at the same time, the same group of men responsible for so much of the destruction of America.

Allow us to explain.

Aside from their utter and devastating silence on the destruction of the family caused by divorce and remarriage, abortion and contraception (again – all Democratic Party highlights), they have also promoted other major Marxist agenda items like abolishing the Second Amendment, destroying the nation's borders, pushing the phony narrative of man-made climate change and going along with the attack on freedom of religious speech. Might as well throw in the lockstep approach to the COVID lockdowns for good measure, not to mention refusing to even consider the questions surrounding the results of the 2020 vote.

...

There is absolutely zero sunlight between the U.S. bishops and the great big blue donkey. They are indistinguishable.

They want him out of their way.

When Church Militant broke the news over the weekend that the Vatican had ordered an investigation of Bp. Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, the Catholic social media world exploded, as it should have.

What other response should there be?

The Texas bishop has piled up scorn and private disdain from many of his brother bishops. Now that private disdain has bubbled over into the realm of public disdain, as he is now being "gone after" because of his orthodoxy and willingness to announce it.

He has deservedly earned the nickname "America's Bishop" for his simple manner of clear, direct speaking. And, of course, the hierarchy, as it is currently (and temporarily, we might add) composed, can never tolerate clarity.

...

A large part of the corruption happens because of the bishops' unofficial involvement in politics. They continually push for the agenda of the Democratic Party, point by point, but carefully sidestep the prickly situation of being actually officially political. Catholic, Inc., can't jeopardize that precious 501(c)(3) nonprofit tax status.

So-called hate speech to be prosecuted?

During the midterms in 2022, when the red wave almost entirely failed to materialize except in very isolated pockets, one of the remarkable shouldn't/wasn’t supposed-to-happen things is the flip of some states to more blue. Perhaps the biggest example of that is right here where Church Militant is headquartered: Michigan.

In one night, the entire state government went from a medium shade of purple to deep blue as the communist Democrats seized back control of the state legislature, affecting the much coveted "trifecta" — control of both chambers and the governorship. With the Gov. Gretchen "lockdown" Whitmer winning reelection — as well as her Marxist maven counterparts, Attorney General Dana Nessel and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson — the Marxist Michigan monopoly is fully complete.

And as we predicted on election night (right here on this set), that was/is a big, giant danger to everything that faithful Catholics, as well as other people of goodwill, hold dear. True to form, the Marxists have introduced a bill into the state legislature, with the full support of the commie elites, that will destroy free speech of religious and political conservatives.

Of course, it's all under the guise of stamping out so-called hate speech. And we all know what that means: a euphemism for conservative speech. Any speech about truth that Marxists despise is labeled "hate," and under the proposed law, it will be punishable with fines, prison time or both. And before someone says, "That will never hold up in court. Just sue them," consider this.

First, going to court, even in the case of a slam dunk like our ongoing case in Baltimore, is a tremendous drain on mental and financial resources. Having lived in lawsuit land now for the past two years, even a win (and Church Militant is so far 4-0) in court drains away valuable time from the mission. We are here to promote the Faith for the salvation of souls and help turn around the culture to whatever degree we can in terms of people's thinking.

Meet these cultural and spiritual warriors for Catholicism.

As we conclude our extended coverage of the Los Angeles prayer rally against the Dodgers and the award given to the anti-Catholic hate group, there are some important takeaways here.

If you were unable to catch our live stream of the actual event on Friday, we've pulled a few interview highlights we think are worth focusing on because they cover the gamut of the struggle we are in, both spiritual and temporal.

Up first, a bishop, the only bishop to appear at the event, at least publicly, Bp. Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, laid out the proper way to understand the struggle from a purely spiritual perspective. What too many Catholics really fail to understand is the decades-long, even centuries-long, assault that has been going on across a very broad front.

The institutions of Western civilization (all of them) didn't just come tumbling down overnight or even over the course of a few years. Our good friends at Tradition, Family and Property, have chronicled the meltdown as well as stood defiantly in the face of it at hundreds of events across the nation and the world. So it was a pleasure to catch up with them in Los Angeles.

#The Vortex — It's Unparalleled. Woke Lies Uncivilized the West

It's a dead civilization.

A woke civilization is no civilization at all; there is nothing civil about it, in fact. One of the central tenets of wokeism is that white males are the enemy because they are the oppressors. And who are the oppressed? The victims? Well, essentially, everyone else, more or less.

An oddball exception is made for elite white males. Think Chuck Schumer, Joe Biden and John Kerry, for example, who go along with the narrative publicly, but privately surrender nothing of their so-called white privilege. In fact, hypocrites like that, far from surrendering their influence, actually enhance their wealth and power in such an environment. So there is a strange set of rules governing all this.

Old white males — Soros, Fauci, Gates, most of Congress — are constantly preaching and financing an insurrection against who? Old white males and the patriarchy they portray it to be. If you're not a white male but still a male and you don't go along with this, then you get pounced on by the like-minded. But again, the weird set of rules here.

A few days ago, black Republican Sen. Tim Scott was talking about his distaste for wokism and the damage it causes. Right on cue, Obama attacked him, but the irony here is that Obama is half white, enjoying all the "privilege" of that half, while Scott is all black. Obama has three spacious mansions: Martha's Vineyard, Kalorama and a beachfront difficult-to-get-to property in Hawaii — not bad for making just 400K a year as president.

It seems whatever the rules are here in the land of the woke don't follow any organized pattern. Old, wealthy white males lecturing blacks or Hispanics about how they should rise up and seize control from old, wealthy white males? Wouldn't it be easier for the old, wealthy white males to just give up their wealth and then try and conjure a revolution? I mean, if they feel that strongly about it, that would be the easy solution.

But the reality is this has nothing at all to do with white males, per se. It's just that it's mostly white male fingerprints all over Western civilization. And since the object of their scorn is Western civilization and the Church that built it, they are fighting a phony war against white males — when the real war is against God and His Catholic Church. Western civilization is just something standing in the way.

The rapture is stupid and unbiblical.

With the civilization in its death throes, many people start scrambling around looking for what we guess you could call "the easy out."

As a point of reference, when the Roman Empire was breathing its last, and the barbarians were swarming over the walls and marauding down the streets, the citizenry thought it was the end of the world.

And remember, when all that was going on, most of the empire had already been either directly converted to Catholicism or at least understood it was the State religion (and had been at that point for over a century). So we aren't exactly talking about a bunch of pagans here worshiping false gods.

In fact, so horrified and end-of-the-world crazy were they that St. Augustine sat down and penned his tremendous work The City of God, still one of the giant classics of Western civilization and, dare we say, human history. In that opus, he drew the sharp distinction between the city of God and the city of man.

The faithful belong to the city of God and simply dwell temporarily in the city of man. We are citizens of the heavenly city, and what happens in the earthly city should not be considered paramount, his counsel went. Empires and civilizations come and go, but the city of God remains.

Pray for more moments like this.

Not to belabor the point about the noteworthy Catholic pushback against the Los Angeles Dodgers and their honoring of the blasphemous drag show nuns, but we need to still revel in all this for a moment or two.

Thousands of Catholics showed up at the prayer rally and procession to make our voices heard, as semi-official estimates put the number of Catholics at upwards of 5,000. What appears to have happened was that the Dodgers organization, which invited the group, disinvited them and then reinvited them, felt the heat and moved the honoring ceremony to almost one hour before the opening pitch.

As a result, the stadium was almost completely empty as the twisted sisters received their award — and some of the handful actually booed them. We heard from some of the speakers during Church Militant's livestream of the event, good Catholic men like Jesse Romero and John Yep (chief organizers), Jack Posobiec, and, of course, Bp. Strickland.

A problem ignored by San Francisco's archbishops for decades.

I'm Michael Voris coming to you from the Catholic prayer presence outside Los Angeles' Dodger Stadium.

This controversy arose from the decision by the Dodgers to first invite, then disinvite and then re-invite the group known as the "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence" — a group that largely mocks Catholic women religious to gain attention for fundraising for various liberal causes.

But what many don't know is the background of this group. Where did they come from? When did they start? How did all this suddenly become a thing? Unsurprisingly, you have to go back not to L.A., but actually to San Francisco in the late 1960s and 1970s, where all sorts of outrageous groups were forming and roaming about trying to draw attention to gay causes.

Most of that activity originated and took place in a neighborhood area of San Francisco known as the "Castro District," which, ironically enough, had been a heavily populated Irish Catholic enclave until all this began.

In the late 1970s, three men arrived from Iowa City with actual nuns' habits they had tricked out of nuns at a convent there, saying, according to press reports, they were just borrowing them for a production of The Sound of Music.

Once in San Francisco, the men donned the habits, on Easter weekend no less, threw themselves into the morass of the Castro District, rose to prominence above the earlier groups and became established as the definitive group dedicated to mocking cultural and traditional values through denigration of mostly Catholic teaching.

In October 1980, they held their first formal fundraiser — a bingo game. An advance write-up in the San Francisco Chronicle immortalized their name as the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

Is it really happening?

Could it be the case that all the social sexual woke weirdness over the past two years, especially the past few months, is changing some people's minds and making them more conservative? According to a recent survey, that looks like a distinct possibility.

But before diving into that headline, a word of caution. First, the term "conservative" has proven itself to be pretty darn elastic and somewhat difficult to nail down. It doesn't seem to correspond to an objective set of criteria but, rather, a description of where a person stands politically compared to someone else. So yeah, it's not all that helpful. But that said, it doesn't mean nothing.

Second caution: Polls and surveys nearly all need to be delved deeply into because the takeaway headline is almost always a giant overstatement of what the poll finds. So with those cautions, let's look, because there does seem to be some merit to this.

...

It looks like a "fed up" mindset is beginning to develop because a close examination of the deep data reveals Republicans account for the largest increase in saying they are socially conservative, from 60% in 2021 to 74% today, which is a 14-point jump in only two years.

What they didn't tell you.

COVID was a devastating period for the world. But there is much more information coming out now about it despite Big Tech and Big Media's repulsive attempts to silence and censor the information.

In an exclusive one-on-one interview with Dr. Peter McCullough, a leading world expert on the real story of the virus and the pandemic (and, most importantly, how it was capitalized on by nefarious forces), we learn

- It began as a military experiment in biowarfare and went very wrong
- It absolutely did originate in Wuhan at the lab, and
- Giant Pharma conspired to prevent and shut down effective early remedies, which would have saved millions of lives.

And McCullough has, as they say, "all the receipts" on this.

The implications of what happened are horrifying for the future because the people who brought this about have designs on world domination — and controlling your health is key to that in their plan.

We highly encourage you to watch this interview. It is the quintessential summary of where the entire story now stands.

You'll be surprised, saddened, and then angry, which is the only natural response to this there can be. Lust for power and money: That was the bottom line.

Western culture is on the verge of collapse.

There is a gigantic clash of foundational philosophies going on in America right now, and the one that wins will dictate the course of history and the fate of the nation.

Everything that is being shoved in front of us daily in media and entertainment and sports and commerce is from the side promoting atheism — what we lovingly term "the Left" or "Marxists" but is really properly termed "the demonic." They do have the microphone, no doubt.

But there are quiet but nonetheless equally (if not more) determined efforts playing out to battle them in what has turned into really a kind of last stand — the legal system.

Brian Festa is a Catholic attorney who co-founded the organization We The Patriots precisely to battle against the forces of godlessness in the culture.

One victim of the New World Order establishment We The Patriots was able to help (among many) was Teryn Gregson, who was fired by the PGA as a sports reporter for refusing to go along with the mandates.

...

Come to Detroit this August (first weekend) for our annual men's conference, Strength and Honor.

It's all collapsing and it's because men have not done what they need to do; they have surrendered their God-given roles.
