WILMINGTON , Delaware , November 7 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — Former Vice President Joe Biden never mentioned the ongoing litigation of the vote-counting process during his apparent victory speech moments ago .
Earlier today , most media outlets had called the presidential race for pro-abortion Democrat Joe Biden , while President Donald Trump countered with “ legal challenges ” in several hotly contested states .
In his speech , Biden tried to appeal to homosexuals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ member of the opposite sex , boasting of having put together “ the broadest , most diverse coalition in history , ” including “ Democrats , Republicans , independents , progressives , moderates , conservatives , young , urban , suburban , rural , gay , straight , transgender , white , Latino , Asian , Native American.
” He also announced his plan to focus on COVID-19 in the upcoming months before the presidential inauguration in January .
“ On Monday , I will name a group of leading scientists and experts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Biden-Harris COVID plan and convert it into an action blueprint that will start on January the 20th , 2021.
” No details have emerged yet about the scientists Biden intends to name next week .
It is , however , expected that his experts will emphasize mask mandates and lockdowns , given Biden ’ s criticism of Trump ’ s policies and Democrats ’ support of draconian measures .
“ That plan will be built on bedrock science , ” Biden only said .
“ It will be constructed out of compassion , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can not repair the economy , restore vitality , or relish life ’ s most precious moments , hugging our grandchildren , our children , or birthdays , weddings , graduations , all the moments that matter most to us , until we get [ COVID-19 ] under control , ” the former vice president under President Barack Obama said , hinting at more severe restrictions than were already implemented under Trump .
“ What is our mandate ?
” he asked .
“ I believe it ’ s this : Americans have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of decency , the forces of fairness , to marshal the forces of science and the forces of hope in the great battles of our time.
” Biden proceeded to list several of those “ battles , ” including “ the battle to secure your family ’ s health care ” and “ the battle to save our planet by getting climate under control.
” He then mentioned “ decency ” a second time , his support for killing unborn babies in the womb , no matter their gestational age , notwithstanding .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ mentioned his late son Beau , who died due to brain cancer in 2015 .
In this context , he quoted from the shallow 1970s church hymn “ On Eagle ’ s Wings.
” “ And now together , on eagle ’ s wings we embark on the work that God and history have called upon us to do , with full hearts and steady hands , ” Biden said .
Biden had previously quoted from the Bible , and mentioned faith several times .
Pro-life Catholic priests have repeatedly pointed out that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sen. Kamala Harris ( D-CA ) , Biden ’ s pro-abortion vice presidential candidate , preceded his speech .
Like Biden , she never mentioned the ongoing legal challenges brought by the Trump campaign against the vote-counting process in a number of states , including Michigan , Wisconsin , Pennsylvania , Nevada , and Arizona .
Harris did , however , praise the election process , saying , “ And when our very democracy was on the ballot in this election , the very soul of America at stake , and the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ day for America.
” “ To our campaign staff and volunteers , this extraordinary team , thank you for bringing more people than ever before into the democratic process , and for making this victory possible , ” she continued .
“ To the poll workers and election officials across our country who have worked tirelessly to make sure every vote is counted , our nation owes you a debt of gratitude .
You have protected the integrity of our democracy.
” “ And to the American people who make up our beautiful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thank you for turning out in record numbers to make your voices heard.
” After most media outlets projected Biden would win Pennsylvania earlier today , they began referring to him as president-elect .
President Donald Trump , however , has vowed to fight on .
“ We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner , and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him : they don ’ t want the truth to be exposed , ” Trump stated .
“ The simple @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over .
Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states , let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts , or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor.
” The president mentioned Pennsylvania , where “ our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process .
Legal votes decide who is president , not the news media.
” “ Beginning Monday , our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the rightful winner is seated , ” he continued .
“ The American People are entitled to an honest election : that means counting all legal ballots , and not counting any illegal ballots .
This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election.
” “ It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent , manufactured , or cast by ineligible or deceased voters .
Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ room — and then fight in court to block their access.
” “ I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands , ” Trump concluded .

WILMINGTON, Delaware, November 7, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — Former Vice President Joe Biden never mentioned the ongoing litigation of the vote-counting process during a speech which is being considered a ‘victory’ speech by the media. President Trump reacted to the display saying, “We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don’t want the truth to be exposed.”
“The simple fact is this election is far from over,” added the President. “Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor.”
Earlier today, most media outlets projected the presidential race for pro-abortion Democrat Joe Biden. The president in his message mentioned Pennsylvania, where “our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process. Legal votes decide who is president, not the news media.”
In his speech, Biden tried to appeal to homosexuals and people who claim to be a member of the opposite sex, boasting of having put together “the broadest, most diverse coalition in history,” including “Democrats, Republicans, independents, progressives, moderates, conservatives, young, urban, suburban, rural, gay, straight, transgender, white, Latino, Asian, Native American.”
He also announced his plan to focus on COVID-19 in the upcoming months before the presidential inauguration in January. “On Monday, I will name a group of leading scientists and experts as transition advisers to help take the Biden-Harris COVID plan and convert it into an action blueprint that will start on January the 20th, 2021.”
No details have emerged yet about the scientists Biden intends to name next week. It is, however, expected that his experts will emphasize mask mandates and lockdowns, given Biden’s criticism of Trump’s policies and Democrats’ support of draconian measures.
“We cannot repair the economy, restore vitality, or relish life’s most precious moments, hugging our grandchildren, our children, or birthdays, weddings, graduations, all the moments that matter most to us, until we get [COVID-19] under control,” the former vice president under President Barack Obama said, hinting at more severe restrictions than were already implemented under Trump.
“What is our mandate?” he asked. “I believe it’s this: Americans have called upon us to marshal the forces of decency, the forces of fairness, to marshal the forces of science and the forces of hope in the great battles of our time.”

He then mentioned “decency” a second time, his support for killing unborn babies in the womb, no matter their gestational age, notwithstanding.
Towards the end of his speech Biden mentioned his late son Beau, who died due to brain cancer in 2015. In this context, he quoted from the shallow 1970s church hymn “On Eagle’s Wings.”
“And now together, on eagle’s wings we embark on the work that God and history have called upon us to do, with full hearts and steady hands,” Biden said.
Biden had previously quoted from the Bible, and mentioned faith several times.
Pro-life Catholic priests have repeatedly pointed out that no Catholic can vote for Biden.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Biden’s pro-abortion vice presidential candidate, preceded his speech. Like Biden, she never mentioned the ongoing legal challenges brought by the Trump campaign against the vote-counting process in a number of states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Arizona.
Harris did, however, praise the election process, saying, “And when our very democracy was on the ballot in this election, the very soul of America at stake, and the world watching, you ushered in a new day for America.”
“To our campaign staff and volunteers, this extraordinary team, thank you for bringing more people than ever before into the democratic process, and for making this victory possible,” she continued. “To the poll workers and election officials across our country who have worked tirelessly to make sure every vote is counted, our nation owes you a debt of gratitude. You have protected the integrity of our democracy.”
“And to the American people who make up our beautiful country,” she added, “thank you for turning out in record numbers to make your voices heard.”
After most media outlets projected Biden would win Pennsylvania earlier today, they began referring to him as president-elect. President Donald Trump, however, has vowed to fight on.
President Trump promised: “I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands.”
And to that end, he said, “Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated.”
“The American People are entitled to an honest election: that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election,” he added.
“It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room — and then fight in court to block their access.”

lifesitenews--2020-11-08--Archbishop Viganò slams US Bishops conference for claiming Biden is second ‘Catholic’ President

November 8 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) – His Excellency , Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò , has sent the following statement to LifeSiteNews for publication .
The world in which we find ourselves living is , to use an expression from the Gospel , “ in se divisum ” ( Mt 12:25 ) .
This division , it seems to me , consists of a split between reality and fiction : objective reality on one side , and the fiction of the media on the other .
This certainly applies to the pandemic , which has been used as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the Great Reset , but it applies even more to the surreal American political situation , in which the evidence of a colossal electoral fraud is being censored by the media , which now proclaims Joe Biden ’ s victory as an accomplished fact .
The reality of Covid is blatantly in contrast with what the mainstream media wants us to believe , but this is not enough to dismantle the grotesque castle of falsehoods to which the majority of the population conforms with resignation .
In a similar way , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ violations of the rules and the systematic falsification of the results contrasts with the narrative given to us by the information giants , who say that Joe Biden is the new President of the United States , period .
And so it must be : there are no alternatives , either to the supposed devastating fury of a seasonal flu that caused the same number of deaths as last year , or to the inevitability of the election of a candidate who is corrupt and subservient to the deep state .
In fact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the lockdown .
Reality no longer matters : it is absolutely irrelevant when it stands between the conceived plan and its realization .
Covid and Biden are two holograms , two artificial creations , ready to be adapted time and time again to contingent needs or respectively replaced when necessary with Covid-21 and Kamala Harris .
The accusations of irresponsibility thrown at Trump supporters for holding rallies vanish as soon as Biden ’ s supporters gather in the streets , as has already happened for BLM demonstrations .
What is criminal for some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explanations , without logic , without rationality .
The mere fact of being on the left , of voting for Biden , of putting on the mask is a pass to do anything , while simply being on the right , voting for Trump or questioning the effectiveness of masks is sufficient reason for condemnation and an execution that does not require any evidence or a trial : they are ipso facto labeled as fascists , sovereignists , populists , deniers – and those labeled with these social stigmas are supposed to simply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that division between good people and evil people , that is ridiculed when it is used by one side – ours – and conversely held up as an incontestable postulate when used by our adversaries .
We have seen this with the contemptuous comments responding to my words about the “ children of Light ” and the “ children of darkness , ” as if my “ apocalyptic tones ” were the fruit of a ravingly mad mind and not the simple observation of reality .
But by disdainfully rejecting this Biblical division @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it , restricting to themselves alone the right to give the stamp of social , political , and religious legitimacy .
They are the good ones , even if they support the killing of the innocent – and we are supposed to get over it .
They are the ones supporting democracy , even if in order to win elections they must always resort to deception and fraud – even fraud that is blatantly evident .
They are the defenders of freedom , even if they deprive us of it day after day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even if their corruption and their crimes are now obvious even to the blind .
The dogma that they despise and deride in others is indisputable and incontrovertible when it is they who promote it .
But as I have said previously , they are forgetting a small detail , a particular that they can not understand : the Truth exists in itself ; it exists regardless of whether there is someone who believes it , because the Truth possesses in itself , ontologically , its own reason for validity .
The Truth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an attribute of God ; it is God Himself .
And everything that is true participates in this primacy over lies .
We can thus be theologically and philosophically certain that these deceptions ’ hours are numbered , because it will be enough to shine light on them to make them collapse .
Light and darkness , precisely .
So let us allow light to be shed on the deceptions of Biden and the Democrats , without taking even one step back : the fraud that they have plotted against President Trump and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long , nor will the worldwide fraud of Covid , the responsibility of the Chinese dictatorship , the complicity of the corrupt and traitors , and the enslavement of the deep church .
Tout se tient [ Everything fits together ] .
In this panorama of systematically constructed lies , spread by the media with a disturbing impudence , the election of Joe Biden is not only desired , but is considered indispensable and therefore true and therefore definitive .
Even though the vote counts are not completed ; even though the vote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ; even though the lawsuits alleging fraud have only just been filed .
Biden must become President , because they have already decided it : the vote of the American people is valid only if it ratifies this narrative – otherwise , it is “ reinterpreted , ” dismissed as plebiscite drift , populism , and fascism .
It is therefore not surprising that the Democrats have such coarse and violent enthusiasm for their candidate in pectore , nor that the media and the official commentators have such uncontainable satisfaction , nor that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expressing their support and sycophantic subjection to the deep state .
We are watching a race to see who can arrive first , elbowing and sprawling to show off , so that they can be seen to have always believed in the crushing victory of the Democratic puppet .
But if we understand that the sycophancy of world heads of state and party secretaries is simply a part of the trite script of the global Left , we are frankly left quite disturbed by the declarations of the United States ’ Conference of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ News , which with disturbing cross-eyedness credits itself with having supported “ the second Catholic President in the history of the United States , ” apparently forgetting the not-negligible detail that Biden is avidly pro-abortion , a supporter of LGBT ideology and of anti-Catholic globalism .
The Archbishop of Los Angeles , José H. Gomez , profaning the memory of the Cristeros martyrs of his native country , says bluntly : “ The American people have spoken.
” The frauds that have been denounced and widely proven matter little : the annoying formality @ @ @ @ @ @ @ albeit adulterated in a thousand ways , must now be considered to be concluded in favor of the standard-bearer of aligned , mainstream thought .
We have read , not without retching , the posts of James Martin , S.J.
, and all those courtiers who are pawing to get on Biden ’ s chariot in order to share in his ephemeral triumph .
Those who disagree , those who ask for clarity , those who have recourse to the law to see their rights protected do not have any legitimacy and must @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disappear .
Or rather : they must be “ united ” with the exultant choir , applaud and smile .
Those who do not accept are threatening democracy and must be ostracized .
As may be seen , there are still two sides , but this time they are legitimate and indisputable because it is they who impose them .
It is indicative that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and Planned Parenthood are both expressing their satisfaction for the presumed electoral victory of the same person .

A very nice little group of cronies , no doubt about it .
With these words of the USCCB the pactum sceleris [ plot to commit a crime ] between the deep state @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sealed , the enslavement of the highest levels of the Catholic hierarchy to the New World Order , denying the teaching of Christ and the doctrine of the Church .
Taking note of this is the first , imperative step in order to understand the complexity of the present events and consider them in a supernatural , eschatological perspective .
We know , indeed we firmly believe , that Christ , the one true Light of the world , has already conquered the darkness that obscures it .
American Catholics must multiply their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ special protection for the President of the United States .
I ask priests , especially during these days , to recite the Exorcism against Satan and the apostate angels , and to celebrate the Votive Mass Pro Defensione ab hostibus .
Let us confidently ask for the intervention of the Blessed Virgin Mary , to whose Immaculate Heart we consecrate the United States of America and the entire world .

The world in which we find ourselves living is, to use an expression from the Gospel, “in se divisum” (Mt 12:25). This division, it seems to me, consists of a split between reality and fiction: objective reality on one side, and the fiction of the media on the other. This certainly applies to the pandemic, which has been used as a tool of social engineering that is instrumental to the Great Reset, but it applies even more to the surreal American political situation, in which the evidence of a colossal electoral fraud is being censored by the media, which now proclaims Joe Biden’s victory as an accomplished fact.
The reality of Covid is blatantly in contrast with what the mainstream media wants us to believe, but this is not enough to dismantle the grotesque castle of falsehoods to which the majority of the population conforms with resignation. In a similar way, the reality of electoral fraud, of blatant violations of the rules and the systematic falsification of the results contrasts with the narrative given to us by the information giants, who say that Joe Biden is the new President of the United States, period. And so it must be: there are no alternatives, either to the supposed devastating fury of a seasonal flu that caused the same number of deaths as last year, or to the inevitability of the election of a candidate who is corrupt and subservient to the deep state. In fact, Biden has already promised to restore the lockdown.
Reality no longer matters: it is absolutely irrelevant when it stands between the conceived plan and its realization. Covid and Biden are two holograms, two artificial creations, ready to be adapted time and time again to contingent needs or respectively replaced when necessary with Covid-21 and Kamala Harris. The accusations of irresponsibility thrown at Trump supporters for holding rallies vanish as soon as Biden’s supporters gather in the streets, as has already happened for BLM demonstrations. What is criminal for some people is permitted for others: without explanations, without logic, without rationality. The mere fact of being on the left, of voting for Biden, of putting on the mask is a pass to do anything, while simply being on the right, voting for Trump or questioning the effectiveness of masks is sufficient reason for condemnation and an execution that does not require any evidence or a trial: they are ipso facto labeled as fascists, sovereignists, populists, deniers – and those labeled with these social stigmas are supposed to simply silently withdraw.
We thus return to that division between good people and evil people, that is ridiculed when it is used by one side – ours – and conversely held up as an incontestable postulate when used by our adversaries. We have seen this with the contemptuous comments responding to my words about the “children of Light” and the “children of darkness,” as if my “apocalyptic tones” were the fruit of a ravingly mad mind and not the simple observation of reality. But by disdainfully rejecting this Biblical division of humanity, they have actually confirmed it, restricting to themselves alone the right to give the stamp of social, political, and religious legitimacy.
They are the good ones, even if they support the killing of the innocent – and we are supposed to get over it. They are the ones supporting democracy, even if in order to win elections they must always resort to deception and fraud – even fraud that is blatantly evident. They are the defenders of freedom, even if they deprive us of it day after day. They are objective and honest, even if their corruption and their crimes are now obvious even to the blind. The dogma that they despise and deride in others is indisputable and incontrovertible when it is they who promote it.
But as I have said previously, they are forgetting a small detail, a particular that they cannot understand: the Truth exists in itself; it exists regardless of whether there is someone who believes it, because the Truth possesses in itself, ontologically, its own reason for validity. The Truth cannot be denied because it is an attribute of God; it is God Himself. And everything that is true participates in this primacy over lies. We can thus be theologically and philosophically certain that these deceptions’ hours are numbered, because it will be enough to shine light on them to make them collapse. Light and darkness, precisely. So let us allow light to be shed on the deceptions of Biden and the Democrats, without taking even one step back: the fraud that they have plotted against President Trump and against America will not remain standing for long, nor will the worldwide fraud of Covid, the responsibility of the Chinese dictatorship, the complicity of the corrupt and traitors, and the enslavement of the deep church. Tout se tient [Everything fits together].
In this panorama of systematically constructed lies, spread by the media with a disturbing impudence, the election of Joe Biden is not only desired, but is considered indispensable and therefore true and therefore definitive. Even though the vote counts are not completed; even though the vote verifications and recounts are only just beginning; even though the lawsuits alleging fraud have only just been filed. Biden must become President, because they have already decided it: the vote of the American people is valid only if it ratifies this narrative – otherwise, it is “reinterpreted,” dismissed as plebiscite drift, populism, and fascism.
It is therefore not surprising that the Democrats have such coarse and violent enthusiasm for their candidate in pectore, nor that the media and the official commentators have such uncontainable satisfaction, nor that political leaders from around the world are expressing their support and sycophantic subjection to the deep state. We are watching a race to see who can arrive first, elbowing and sprawling to show off, so that they can be seen to have always believed in the crushing victory of the Democratic puppet.
But if we understand that the sycophancy of world heads of state and party secretaries is simply a part of the trite script of the global Left, we are frankly left quite disturbed by the declarations of the United States’ Conference of Catholic Bishops, immediately republished by Vatican News, which with disturbing cross-eyedness credits itself with having supported “the second Catholic President in the history of the United States,” apparently forgetting the not-negligible detail that Biden is avidly pro-abortion, a supporter of LGBT ideology and of anti-Catholic globalism. The Archbishop of Los Angeles, José H. Gomez, profaning the memory of the Cristeros martyrs of his native country, says bluntly: “The American people have spoken.” The frauds that have been denounced and widely proven matter little: the annoying formality of the vote of the people, albeit adulterated in a thousand ways, must now be considered to be concluded in favor of the standard-bearer of aligned, mainstream thought. We have read, not without retching, the posts of James Martin, S.J., and all those courtiers who are pawing to get on Biden’s chariot in order to share in his ephemeral triumph. Those who disagree, those who ask for clarity, those who have recourse to the law to see their rights protected do not have any legitimacy and must be silent, resign themselves, and disappear. Or rather: they must be “united” with the exultant choir, applaud and smile. Those who do not accept are threatening democracy and must be ostracized. As may be seen, there are still two sides, but this time they are legitimate and indisputable because it is they who impose them.
It is indicative that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and Planned Parenthood are both expressing their satisfaction for the presumed electoral victory of the same person. This unanimity of consensus recalls the enthusiastic support of the Masonic Lodges on the occasion of the election of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, which was also not free from the shadow of fraud within the Conclave and was equally desired by the deep state, as we know clearly from the emails of John Podesta and the ties of Theodore McCarrick and his colleagues with the Democrats and with Biden himself. A very nice little group of cronies, no doubt about it.
With these words of the USCCB the pactum sceleris [plot to commit a crime] between the deep state and the deep church is confirmed and sealed, the enslavement of the highest levels of the Catholic hierarchy to the New World Order, denying the teaching of Christ and the doctrine of the Church. Taking note of this is the first, imperative step in order to understand the complexity of the present events and consider them in a supernatural, eschatological perspective. We know, indeed we firmly believe, that Christ, the one true Light of the world, has already conquered the darkness that obscures it.
American Catholics must multiply their prayers and beg the Lord for a special protection for the President of the United States. I ask priests, especially during these days, to recite the Exorcism against Satan and the apostate angels, and to celebrate the Votive Mass Pro Defensione ab hostibus. Let us confidently ask for the intervention of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to whose Immaculate Heart we consecrate the United States of America and the entire world.

WILMINGTON , Delaware , November 7 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — Former Vice President Joe Biden never mentioned the ongoing litigation of the vote-counting process during a speech which is being considered a ‘ victory ’ speech by the media .
President Trump reacted to the display saying , “ We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner , and why his media allies are trying so hard to help @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the truth to be exposed.
” “ The simple fact is this election is far from over , ” added the President .
“ Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states , let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts , or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor.
” Earlier today , most media outlets projected the presidential race for pro-abortion Democrat Joe Biden .
The president in his message mentioned Pennsylvania , where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meaningful access to watch the counting process .
Legal votes decide who is president , not the news media.
” In his speech , Biden tried to appeal to homosexuals and people who claim to be a member of the opposite sex , boasting of having put together “ the broadest , most diverse coalition in history , ” including “ Democrats , Republicans , independents , progressives , moderates , conservatives , young , urban , suburban , rural , gay , straight , transgender , white , Latino , Asian , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plan to focus on COVID-19 in the upcoming months before the presidential inauguration in January .
“ On Monday , I will name a group of leading scientists and experts as transition advisers to help take the Biden-Harris COVID plan and convert it into an action blueprint that will start on January the 20th , 2021.
” No details have emerged yet about the scientists Biden intends to name next week .
It is , however , expected that his experts will emphasize mask mandates and lockdowns , given Biden ’ s criticism @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ support of draconian measures .
“ We can not repair the economy , restore vitality , or relish life ’ s most precious moments , hugging our grandchildren , our children , or birthdays , weddings , graduations , all the moments that matter most to us , until we get [ COVID-19 ] under control , ” the former vice president under President Barack Obama said , hinting at more severe restrictions than were already implemented under Trump .
“ What is our mandate ?
” he asked .
“ I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have called upon us to marshal the forces of decency , the forces of fairness , to marshal the forces of science and the forces of hope in the great battles of our time.
” Biden proceeded to list several of those “ battles , ” including “ the battle to secure your family ’ s health care ” and “ the battle to save our planet by getting climate under control.
” He then mentioned “ decency ” a second time , his support for killing unborn babies in the womb , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Towards the end of his speech Biden mentioned his late son Beau , who died due to brain cancer in 2015 .
In this context , he quoted from the shallow 1970s church hymn “ On Eagle ’ s Wings.
” “ And now together , on eagle ’ s wings we embark on the work that God and history have called upon us to do , with full hearts and steady hands , ” Biden said .
Biden had previously quoted from the Bible , and mentioned faith several times .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that no Catholic can vote for Biden .
Sen. Kamala Harris ( D-CA ) , Biden ’ s pro-abortion vice presidential candidate , preceded his speech .
Like Biden , she never mentioned the ongoing legal challenges brought by the Trump campaign against the vote-counting process in a number of states , including Michigan , Wisconsin , Pennsylvania , Nevada , and Arizona .
Harris did , however , praise the election process , saying , “ And when our very democracy was on the ballot in this election , the very soul @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world watching , you ushered in a new day for America.
” “ To our campaign staff and volunteers , this extraordinary team , thank you for bringing more people than ever before into the democratic process , and for making this victory possible , ” she continued .
“ To the poll workers and election officials across our country who have worked tirelessly to make sure every vote is counted , our nation owes you a debt of gratitude .
You have protected the integrity of our democracy.
” “ And to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ beautiful country , ” she added , “ thank you for turning out in record numbers to make your voices heard.
” After most media outlets projected Biden would win Pennsylvania earlier today , they began referring to him as president-elect .
President Donald Trump , however , has vowed to fight on .
President Trump promised : “ I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands.
” And to that end , he said , “ Beginning Monday , our campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated.
” “ The American People are entitled to an honest election : that means counting all legal ballots , and not counting any illegal ballots .
This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election , ” he added .
“ It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent , manufactured , or cast by ineligible or deceased voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room — and then fight in court to block their access.
” Help stop voter fraud : The Trump Campaign has created “ Defend Your Ballot ” to report election issues .

FRANCE , November 9 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — As civil liberties have once again been suppressed in France by way of a second lockdown that is purported to be “ breaking ” a new wave of COVID-19 , public Masses have been banned since November 3 and assistance at requiem Masses and weddings severely restricted .
An emergency recourse in front of the highest administrative court , the Conseil d ’ Etat , was unsuccessful in challenging the government ’ s decision to call public worship “ unessential.
” But on Sunday , demonstrations in front of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as in Lyon brought hundreds together .
This coming Sunday , other towns such as Paris , Orléans , Bordeaux on the Atlantic coast , Rennes and Vannes in Brittany , and probably many others will also be the scene of legal outdoor demonstrations asking “ for the Mass.

A mounting number of hospitalizations attributed to COVID-19 prompted French president Emmanuel Macron to announce a second lockdown that was inaugurated on October 29 , in order , he said , to avoid “ saturating ” resuscitation beds — whose numbers , about 5,000 nationwide , have not budged since the first lockdown from March 17 to May 11 despite months of respite in summer during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the number of people who were actually ill .
Neighboring Germany has five times as many beds and a much lower death toll than France .

Wearing masks outside is compulsory in many cities such as Paris , and even in the mountain paths of the Alps in some places .
Children are expected to wear masks all day in school from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ daily predictions of doom .
President Macron introduced the new dictatorial measures by saying that doing nothing and waiting for herd immunity would lead to 400,000 deaths .
This would be the incredible equivalent of 400 surplus deaths each day for over three years !
As things stand , there is no really significant surplus of overall mortality since the beginning of September , and questions have been raised in Parliament about the true cause of announced COVID deaths .
There are a growing number of skeptics and groups challenging the government ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the grounds of individual rights ; economic reason ; public health ( suicides are way up , and cancer treatments and diagnoses are often not taking place ) ; the right of doctors to actually treat COVID-19 according to their own professional judgment before it gets bad ...
The list is endless .
In a few days , a petition against compulsory masks for children garnered nearly 200,000 signatures .
Over 100,000 people signed a petition “ Pour la Messe ” ( “ for the Mass ” ) launched by two former college @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the Vendée ) telling Macron : “ Man does not live by bread alone .

One day after the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were banned , several lay and religious organizations seized the Council of State to have it judge the ban contrary to the fundamental liberty to worship , disproportionate regarding the reality of COVID , questioning the announcement that “ 400,000 ” would die , and noting that there are a large number of exceptions to the lockdown .

Let's get to 4000 ! Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition Young Poles defending their church against pro-abortion aggression stemming from the decision of the country's Constitutional Court to protect the lives of sick unborn babies. Photo Credit: Polonia Christiana Since the Constitutional Court of Poland's decision on October 22nd to protect and vindicate the right to life of sick preborn children, leftist pro-abort feminists have been attacking churches, government officials and pro-lifers across Poland in a foul display of bloody-minded vulgarity. But, we STAND with Poland. And, we PRAY for Poland. Please WATCH this video which congratulates faithful Catholics in Poland for their pro-life example and for standing up to rioters trying to vandalize statues, churches. We now call on all pro-lifers, faithful Christians (especially in the Polish diaspora) and pro-life organizations to SIGN this petition to encourage pro-lifers in Poland, the Polish Constitutional Court, and especially the Polish Government to remain steadfastly pro-life right now. And we call on all faithful Polish Catholics to defend their churches and patriotic monuments! This is the time to keep faith with generations of Polish heroes and "Be not afraid!" This is not the time for the Government to give-in to demands from the opposition. Stand up against the people who are attacking your churches while baying for the blood of innocent preborn children! And, explain to your people how the Court was RIGHT to have challenged the abortion law allowing the barbaric practice of eugenic abortion. Poland is a republican democracy, and in such a democracy, the Constitutional Court has the last say on matters of national importance. The Polish Court has spoken, and its ruling should be respected and implemented. And, under no circumstances should the Polish Government promise to reverse this decision in law or by granting a referendum on the same. Poland, be courageous and stand fast for Life. Don't give in to the Culture of Death! Thank you for your example, Poland. Now, remain strong! And, thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition of support and solidarity with the Constitutional Court of Poland's decision to disallow eugenic abortion. Thank you also for standing with and praying for Polish pro-lifers and government officials to remain steadfastly pro-life during time of leftist, pro-abortion aggression.

lifesitenews--2020-11-09--Retired nurse arrested for rescuing lonely mother, 97, from care home

MARKET WEIGHTON , Yorkshire , England , November 9 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — A retired nurse in England was arrested for taking her ailing mother from a care home .
Last week , Ylenia Angeli , 73 , took her mother , Tina Thornborough , out of Northgate House and , with the aid of her own daughter , Leandra Ashton , 42 , bundled her into her car .
Angeli then drove to a nearby parking lot to process what she had done and was apprehended by police .
Angeli said she acted on `` instinct ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their loved one through the care home window , noticed a deterioration in Thornborough ’ s mental condition .
Ashton told British media that whereas Tina , who has dementia , normally “ lit up ” when they came to see her , this time she merely looked confused .
Due to Covid regulations in England , people can not visit their elderly relations in person in some care homes , but can only wave and try to communicate with them through windows .
Saddened by the change , Angeli pleaded with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out into the garden so the two could visit her there .
The employee refused .
“ There was a gap in the door ; my mother was just three feet away , ” Angeli told British media .
“ All I knew was that I wanted to hold my mother and nothing was going to stop me , ” she continued .
“ Being separated from her was almost too much to bear .
After nine months of Covid restrictions , I could n't stand it anymore .
Nothing was planned , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instinct .
I needed to wrap my arms around her and tell her she was loved.
” According to Angeli , she barged in despite the employee ’ s physical attempt to keep her out and put her arms around her mother “ for the first time in nine months.
” The two began to cry , and the nonagenarian kissed her daughter while the Northgate House employee tried to pull her wheelchair away .
The employee then left them together , saying she was going to call the police .
Because Tina @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has custody of her .
Angeli then wheeled Tina outside to see her granddaughter , and then the two decided to put Tina in their car and drive away .
“ We put Nan in Mum 's car and drove to a garden center about five minutes away and parked up to catch our breath and work out what we were going to do , ” Aston told media .
“ We were both shaking , thinking : 'Oh my God , what has just happened ? '
” she continued .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different and with us , she was looking around and trying to kiss us .
We just wanted to take her home and care for her during lockdown.
” However , the Northgate House staff had written down their license plate number , and soon the women were boxed in by police vehicles .
Angeli was arrested , handcuffed and put in the back of a police car .
Ashton began to record the scene .
“ My 97-year-old nan ( … ) is being taken back by force to her care home @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ My mother has been arrested , ” she continued .
“ She is a nurse .
She is a fully qualified nurse who is wishing to care for her own mother .
And here we have an incredible use of police time to take my 97-year-old grandmother back to the care home where she is deteriorating , where we haven ’ t been able to see her for nine months.
” Ashton told someone off camera that she was not going to stop filming so that “ everyone can see how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yorkshire ’ s Humberside Police , the care home had reported Angeli ’ s actions as “ an assault.
” “ We responded to a report of an assault at the care home , who are legally responsible for the woman 's care and were concerned for her well-being , '' assistant chief constable Chris Noble declared in an official statement .
“ Officers found both women along with a third woman nearby and informed them that they would need to return the lady to the home , as is their legal duty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ The situation was distressing and emotional for everyone and the woman did not want her mother to be returned to the care home staff.
” Apparently , the arresting police officer believed that he had to “ restrain ” Angeli .
“ The officer in attendance had to ensure that that everyone was safe and in particular the 97-year-old lady who was frail and vulnerable and so made the decision to briefly restrain the 73-year-old woman until the situation was calm and under control , ” Nobel stated .
“ Officers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ home .
The 73-year-old lady was then immediately unrestrained , de-arrested and allowed to return home with her daughter.
” Now Angeli , who is in conversation with the care home and the local government , says she will not rest until she is permitted to take her mother home .
“ I will fight with my last breath to get her home , ” she said .
`` If all else fails , I would gladly go to prison.
” The incident has become a cause celebre in the UK , where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be banned under the most recent coronavirus lockdown restrictions .
The revised rules , which came in on November 5 , do permit visits but leaves the quality of the visit — either through a window , outdoors , or in a designated room — to the discretion of the care home .
A spokesman for UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson admitted that the video released by Leanda Ashton is “ distressing.
” “ They clearly are distressing scenes , ” he said .
“ We absolutely understand how difficult the current @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loved ones in care homes and that ’ s why we ’ re publishing new guidance to enable more visits to take place , '' he continued .

The frail woman's 73-year-old daughter was handcuffed and put in the back of a police car in an attempt to 'restrain' her.
MARKET WEIGHTON, Yorkshire, England, November 9, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — A retired nurse in England was arrested for taking her ailing mother from a care home.
Last week, Ylenia Angeli, 73, took her mother, Tina Thornborough, out of Northgate House and, with the aid of her own daughter, Leandra Ashton, 42, bundled her into her car. Angeli then drove to a nearby parking lot to process what she had done and was apprehended by police.
Angeli said she acted on “instinct” after she and Ashton, looking at their loved one through the care home window, noticed a deterioration in Thornborough’s mental condition. Ashton told British media that whereas Tina, who has dementia, normally “lit up” when they came to see her, this time she merely looked confused. Due to Covid regulations in England, people cannot visit their elderly relations in person in some care homes, but can only wave and try to communicate with them through windows.
Saddened by the change, Angeli pleaded with a care home employee to have Tina wheeled out into the garden so the two could visit her there. The employee refused.
“There was a gap in the door; my mother was just three feet away,” Angeli told British media.
“All I knew was that I wanted to hold my mother and nothing was going to stop me,” she continued.
“Being separated from her was almost too much to bear. After nine months of Covid restrictions, I couldn't stand it anymore. Nothing was planned, nothing was intentional; it was pure instinct. I needed to wrap my arms around her and tell her she was loved.”
According to Angeli, she barged in despite the employee’s physical attempt to keep her out and put her arms around her mother “for the first time in nine months.” The two began to cry, and the nonagenarian kissed her daughter while the Northgate House employee tried to pull her wheelchair away. The employee then left them together, saying she was going to call the police. Because Tina Thornborough has dementia, the care home has custody of her.
Angeli then wheeled Tina outside to see her granddaughter, and then the two decided to put Tina in their car and drive away.
“We put Nan in Mum's car and drove to a garden center about five minutes away and parked up to catch our breath and work out what we were going to do,” Aston told media.
“We were both shaking, thinking: 'Oh my God, what has just happened?'” she continued.
“Tina seemed so happy to be somewhere different and with us, she was looking around and trying to kiss us. We just wanted to take her home and care for her during lockdown.”
However, the Northgate House staff had written down their license plate number, and soon the women were boxed in by police vehicles. Angeli was arrested, handcuffed and put in the back of a police car. Ashton began to record the scene.
“My 97-year-old nan (…) is being taken back by force to her care home,” Ashton said as she filmed.
“My mother has been arrested,” she continued.
“She is a nurse. She is a fully qualified nurse who is wishing to care for her own mother. And here we have an incredible use of police time to take my 97-year-old grandmother back to the care home where she is deteriorating, where we haven’t been able to see her for nine months.”
Ashton told someone off camera that she was not going to stop filming so that “everyone can see how ridiculous this situation is.”
According to Yorkshire’s Humberside Police, the care home had reported Angeli’s actions as “an assault.”
“We responded to a report of an assault at the care home, who are legally responsible for the woman's care and were concerned for her well-being,” assistant chief constable Chris Noble declared in an official statement.
“Officers found both women along with a third woman nearby and informed them that they would need to return the lady to the home, as is their legal duty to do so,” he continued.
“The situation was distressing and emotional for everyone and the woman did not want her mother to be returned to the care home staff.”
Apparently, the arresting police officer believed that he had to “restrain” Angeli.
“The officer in attendance had to ensure that that everyone was safe and in particular the 97-year-old lady who was frail and vulnerable and so made the decision to briefly restrain the 73-year-old woman until the situation was calm and under control,” Nobel stated.
“Officers then returned the elderly lady to the home. The 73-year-old lady was then immediately unrestrained, de-arrested and allowed to return home with her daughter.”
Now Angeli, who is in conversation with the care home and the local government, says she will not rest until she is permitted to take her mother home.
“I will fight with my last breath to get her home,” she said.
“If all else fails, I would gladly go to prison.”
The incident has become a cause celebre in the UK, where even window visits to the elderly were to be banned under the most recent coronavirus lockdown restrictions. The revised rules, which came in on November 5, do permit visits but leaves the quality of the visit — either through a window, outdoors, or in a designated room — to the discretion of the care home.
A spokesman for UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson admitted that the video released by Leanda Ashton is “distressing.”
“They clearly are distressing scenes,” he said.
“We absolutely understand how difficult the current situation is for families and those with loved ones in care homes and that’s why we’re publishing new guidance to enable more visits to take place,” he continued.
“But it does have to be done in a way that’s Covid-secure because of the risk to residents, family members and staff, and we need to ensure they are kept safe.”
Both Angeli and her mother were formerly residents of Shetland. Michael Robinson of SPUC Scotland told LifeSiteNews that the timing of the arrest was a “cruel irony” given the government’s attitude toward assisted suicide.
“It is a cruel irony that on the same day this incident occurred, the UK Health Secretary said that people are legally allowed to travel overseas for an assisted suicide during lockdown,” Robinson said.
“The Angeli case exposes the double standards of the current COVID restrictions,” he continued.

Sign this Petition Young Poles defending their church against pro-abortion aggression stemming from the decision of the country's Constitutional Court to protect the lives of sick unborn babies. Photo Credit: Polonia Christiana Since the Constitutional Court of Poland's decision on October 22nd to protect and vindicate the right to life of sick preborn children, leftist pro-abort feminists have been attacking churches, government officials and pro-lifers across Poland in a foul display of bloody-minded vulgarity. But, we STAND with Poland. And, we PRAY for Poland. Please WATCH this video which congratulates faithful Catholics in Poland for their pro-life example and for standing up to rioters trying to vandalize statues, churches. We now call on all pro-lifers, faithful Christians (especially in the Polish diaspora) and pro-life organizations to SIGN this petition to encourage pro-lifers in Poland, the Polish Constitutional Court, and especially the Polish Government to remain steadfastly pro-life right now. And we call on all faithful Polish Catholics to defend their churches and patriotic monuments! This is the time to keep faith with generations of Polish heroes and "Be not afraid!" This is not the time for the Government to give-in to demands from the opposition. Stand up against the people who are attacking your churches while baying for the blood of innocent preborn children! And, explain to your people how the Court was RIGHT to have challenged the abortion law allowing the barbaric practice of eugenic abortion. Poland is a republican democracy, and in such a democracy, the Constitutional Court has the last say on matters of national importance. The Polish Court has spoken, and its ruling should be respected and implemented. And, under no circumstances should the Polish Government promise to reverse this decision in law or by granting a referendum on the same. Poland, be courageous and stand fast for Life. Don't give in to the Culture of Death! Thank you for your example, Poland. Now, remain strong! And, thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition of support and solidarity with the Constitutional Court of Poland's decision to disallow eugenic abortion.

— Article continues below Petition — Attorney General Barr: Investigate the Biden Family affair now! Show Petition Text 38585 have signed the petition. Let's get to 40000 ! Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition Please SIGN and SHARE this petition which calls on the U.S. Attorney General, William Barr, to investigate the allegations of corruption and influence-peddling against former Vice President Joe Biden. In an interview on Fox News, just this morning, the President stated: "This is major corruption and this has to be known about before the election." If proven true, these outrageous allegations against Biden could have massive implications for national security! Americans do not want a president who will sell out his country to the highest bidder in order to enrich his family or save them from prosecution. This scandal began last week when the New York Post dropped a bombshell story alleging that then Vice President Biden pressured Ukrainian authorities to fire a prosecutor who was investigating a company with ties to the Biden Family. And, in another expose by the NY Post, also last week, the Biden Family is alleged to have improperly profited from deals made with one of the largest Chinese energy companies because of Vice President Biden's position in government. Please SIGN our petition to support President Trump calling on the Attorney General to launch an investigation with all due haste. The American public deserves to know the truth about Joe Biden and his involvement, if any, in this apparent influence-peddling scandal. Serious questions need to be answered with all urgency! Please SIGN and SHARE this petition which urges William Barr, the U.S. Attorney General, to immediately initiate an inquiry into the alleged corruption scandal involving the Biden Family.
