lifesitenews--2020-12-03--New video highlights ‘child abuse’ and ‘inhumanity’ of gender ‘transitioning’

LONDON , U.K. , December 3 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — In a new video , U.K.-based Christian organization Voice for Justice UK ( VfJUK ) explains the devastating effects which gender ideology and reassignment treatment have on children .
“ Children need love , not lies , ” states VfJUK in the new video warning of the “ casual inhumanity ” whereby , in promoting gender ideology and sex reassignment , children are treated “ as subjects in a social experiment driven by ideology , not compassion.
” The organization reveals some lesser-known facts about gender reassignment , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ identity dysfunction ” which exists today .
Far from being properly helped , children suffering from “ gender dysphoria ” are being “ exploited by activists , and told lies that they were born in the wrong body , encouraging them to deny their actual sex.
” As a result , children have been subjected to “ life-changing ‘ transitioning ’ treatment without proper assessment , ” as gender activists have widely promoted measures such a sex-reassignment , and puberty blockers .
The video warns that these invasive procedures are performed without investigating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s gender confusion , which could be caused by “ trauma , sexual abuse , autism and mental health issues.
” Indeed , a former psychologist from the U.K. ’ s leading gender clinic revealed that “ therapy is not an option in this service.
” A previous governor of the Gender Identity Development Service ( GIDS ) at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation trust , added that “ the treatment of gender dysphoric children has become politicised and , in many ways , operates outside good medical practice.
” Last year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Tavistock and Portman .
However , the video notes that 1,362 of these children “ would have found happiness in their birth sex if just given love , understanding and affirmation.
” Between 2019 and 2020 , 2,728 children in the UK were referred to GIDS , the majority being prescribed “ puberty blockers.
” A huge 97 % of children who receive such drugs “ progress to hormone treatment ” as teenagers .
These children , Voice for Justice states , are “ the collateral damage of Gender Ideology.
” The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ undergo transition surgery have a “ suicide rate 19 times higher than peers , after surgery ; impaired brain development , sterility … cancers and premature death … ” “ Institutionalized child abuse , ” which Dr. Michelle Cretella , the director of the American College of Pediatricians , described pushing such treatment on children .
Voice for Justice ’ s warning has recently been vindicated by the legal victory of Keira Bell .
Now 23 , Bell had begun taking “ puberty blockers when she was 16 , was injected with testosterone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 20.
” However , the Daily Mail reported , “ She claimed she was treated like a ‘ guinea pig ’ at the clinic , and said doctors failed to carry out a proper psychiatric assessment and should have challenged her more over her decision to transition to a male as a teenager.
” Bell took her case to the High Court , which on Tuesday ruled that children under 16 are too young to consent to transitioning drugs , or puberty blockers .
The court also ruled it “ highly unlikely ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ consent to such drugs , adding it was “ doubtful ” that children aged 14 or 15 could properly understand and appreciate the gravity of the process either .
Speaking to LifeSite , Reverend Lynda Rose , the CEO of VfJUK , said that “ while we welcome the ruling in the Keira Bell case yesterday , we believe it doesn ’ t address the real and fundamental problem that children are today being given highly confusing teaching in school from as young as 3 , with the misleading and inaccurate message that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and not biology.
” “ As part of growing up , children go through phases , ” Rose continued .
“ Many girls , for example , are ‘ tomboys ’ , while boys may dive for the pink sparkly cape in the dressing up box and pinch their mothers ’ high heels .
This is normal .
But seeing these behaviours today it has become all too common for adults , who should know better , to whisper the weasel words , ‘ Gender is choice , not biology … have you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wrong body ?

LONDON, U.K., December 3, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — In a new video, U.K.-based Christian organization Voice for Justice UK (VfJUK) explains the devastating effects which gender ideology and reassignment treatment have on children.
“Children need love, not lies,” states VfJUK in the new video warning of the “casual inhumanity” whereby, in promoting gender ideology and sex reassignment, children are treated “as subjects in a social experiment driven by ideology, not compassion.”
The organization reveals some lesser-known facts about gender reassignment, commenting on the “epidemic of psychosexual identity dysfunction” which exists today. Far from being properly helped, children suffering from “gender dysphoria” are being “exploited by activists, and told lies that they were born in the wrong body, encouraging them to deny their actual sex.”
As a result, children have been subjected to “life-changing ‘transitioning’ treatment without proper assessment,” as gender activists have widely promoted measures such a sex-reassignment, and puberty blockers.
The video warns that these invasive procedures are performed without investigating the true nature of a child’s gender confusion, which could be caused by “trauma, sexual abuse, autism and mental health issues.”
Indeed, a former psychologist from the U.K.’s leading gender clinic revealed that “therapy is not an option in this service.” A previous governor of the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation trust, added that “the treatment of gender dysphoric children has become politicised and, in many ways, operates outside good medical practice.”
Last year, 1,946 children were referred to GIDS at Tavistock and Portman. However, the video notes that 1,362 of these children “would have found happiness in their birth sex if just given love, understanding and affirmation.”
Between 2019 and 2020, 2,728 children in the UK were referred to GIDS, the majority being prescribed “puberty blockers.” A huge 97% of children who receive such drugs “progress to hormone treatment” as teenagers. These children, Voice for Justice states, are “the collateral damage of Gender Ideology.”
The damage cited is substantial: Children who undergo transition surgery have a “suicide rate 19 times higher than peers, after surgery; impaired brain development, sterility … cancers and premature death …”

Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition This petition asks the South Dakota Governor, Kristi Noem, to support the Vulnerable Child Protection Act, which seeks to protect gender-confused children from medical treatment which would wrongly treat puberty as a disease and cause permanent physical and mental problems. Studies show that 85% of gender confused children eventually become comfortable with the sex of their bodies. Puberty-blocking drugs and cross-sex hormones have not been proven safe. For example, the FDA has NOT approved Lupron and GnRH analogues for use in blocking puberty. Risks associated with these pharmaceuticals include: low bone density, high blood pressure, weight gain, abnormal glucose tolerance, breast cancer, liver disease, thrombosis, and cardiovascular disease. Additional risks and potential harms include: For Males: Stunting of penile and testicular growth, sexual dysfunction, prevention of spermatogenesis, and disruption of normal brain and bone development. For Females: A menopause-like state, blockade of normal breast development, decreased blood flow to vagina and vulva, sexual dysfunction, thinning of vaginal epithelium, vaginal atrophy, prevention of menses/ovulation, and disruption of normal brain and bone development. In other words, these medications can sterilize and cause medical harm to vulnerable, confused children. The Vulnerable Child Protection Act prohibits the following interventions on minor children: Surgeries including castration, vasectomy, hysterectomy, and vaginoplasty and mastectomies. The Act also prohibits: prescribing, dispensing, or administering medications that block normal puberty; giving testosterone to females; giving estrogen to males; and, removing a healthy or non-diseased body part or tissue. The Vulnerable Child Protection Act protects minors from medical professionals who would treat puberty as a disease. Support HB 1057. The Ruth Institute and LifeSite are standing together on this petition, for children and against corrupt medical professionals. Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this important petition, today!

“Institutionalized child abuse,” which Dr. Michelle Cretella, the director of the American College of Pediatricians, described pushing such treatment on children.
Voice for Justice’s warning has recently been vindicated by the legal victory of Keira Bell. Now 23, Bell had begun taking “puberty blockers when she was 16, was injected with testosterone at 17 and had a mastectomy aged 20.”
However, the Daily Mail reported, “She claimed she was treated like a ‘guinea pig’ at the clinic, and said doctors failed to carry out a proper psychiatric assessment and should have challenged her more over her decision to transition to a male as a teenager.”
Bell took her case to the High Court, which on Tuesday ruled that children under 16 are too young to consent to transitioning drugs, or puberty blockers.
The court also ruled it “highly unlikely” that children 13 or under could competently consent to such drugs, adding it was “doubtful” that children aged 14 or 15 could properly understand and appreciate the gravity of the process either.
Speaking to LifeSite, Reverend Lynda Rose, the CEO of VfJUK, said that “while we welcome the ruling in the Keira Bell case yesterday, we believe it doesn’t address the real and fundamental problem that children are today being given highly confusing teaching in school from as young as 3, with the misleading and inaccurate message that gender is a matter of choice, and not biology.”
“As part of growing up, children go through phases,” Rose continued. “Many girls, for example, are ‘tomboys’, while boys may dive for the pink sparkly cape in the dressing up box and pinch their mothers’ high heels. This is normal. But seeing these behaviours today it has become all too common for adults, who should know better, to whisper the weasel words, ‘Gender is choice, not biology … have you ever thought you might be in the wrong body?’”
“For impressionable, vulnerable and ‘unhappy’ young children, feeling adrift in a vast and unfriendly ocean, such a suggestion can come like the offer of a much-needed lifebelt,” she explained. “These are the lies that weave their way into the minds of ‘lost’ children — but what they really need is simply love, affirmation and support. At all cost, children must be protected from harmful suggestion, and from the consequences of making life-changing, irreversible, and damaging choices — until such time as they really can understand what they are choosing … and what it is they are giving up.”
A study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry in 2019, originally claimed to show that “gender-affirmation” treatment improves transgender mental health. The study was widely acclaimed in the media, with headlines alleging that gender reassignment surgery was a benefit.
However, the authors retracted their claims this year, saying that “the results demonstrated no advantage of surgery in relation to subsequent mood or anxiety disorder-related health care.”
Moreover, the authors also noted that gender-confused people who undergo “gender-reassignment” surgery are more likely to be treated for anxiety disorders than those who don’t have such surgery.
In 2014, the former chief psychiatrist of Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Paul McHugh, wrote that “policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered” by not treating transgender “confusions … as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention.”
According to McHugh, the “sense of being transgendered constitutes a mental disorder in two respects.” The first, he says, is that “it does not correspond with physical reality.” The second, more importantly, is that not treating transgender disorder properly “can lead to grim psychological outcomes.”

Let's get to 25000 ! Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition Remarks attributed to Pope Francis (and, not denied by the Vatican) in support of homosexual civil unions have caused grave scandal to the faithful. Please SIGN this urgent petition which asks Pope Francis to clarify and rectify these heterodox and scandalous remarks on homosexual civil unions, and which will be delivered both to the Vatican and to the Papal Nuncio of the United States (the Pope's official representative in the U.S.). As the last guarantor of the Faith, the Pope should clarify and rectify these remarks, which go against the perennial teaching of the Church, even including the teaching of his living predecessor, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. "What we have to create is a law of civil coexistence [meaning civil union law, for homosexuals]...," Pope Francis is reported to have remarked, in what is arguably his clearest statement of public support for a practice morally prohibited by official Catholic Church teaching. In fact, the Church has been crystal clear in Her opposition to homosexual unions. Just in 2003, Pope Saint John Paul II approved a document from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, titled 'Considerations Regarding Proposals to Give Legal Recognition to Unions between Homosexual Persons' and written by Cardinal Ratzinger (now, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI), which concludes with the following: "The Church teaches that respect for homosexual persons cannot lead in any way to approval of homosexual behaviour or to legal recognition of homosexual unions. The common good requires that laws recognize, promote and protect marriage as the basis of the family, the primary unit of society. Legal recognition of homosexual unions or placing them on the same level as marriage would mean not only the approval of deviant behaviour, with the consequence of making it a model in present-day society, but would also obscure basic values which belong to the common inheritance of humanity. The Church cannot fail to defend these values, for the good of men and women and for the good of society itself." It could not be more clear: the Church is calling people to repentance, not to be left to indulge in grave sin. Since becoming public, several senior prelates as well as other notable Catholic figures have voiced their opposition to these remarks attributed to the Pontiff. Cardinal Raymond Burke stated: "It is a source of deepest sadness and pressing pastoral concern that the private opinions reported with so much emphasis by the press and attributed to Pope Francis do not correspond to the constant teaching of the Church, as it is expressed in Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition." Cardinal Gerhard Müller commented: "Where there is tension between the plain and obvious Word of God and the infallible interpretation on the one hand, and private expressions of opinion even by the highest church authorities on the other, the principle always applies: in dubio pro DEO [When in doubt, be in favor of God]." And, Catholic theologian and apologist Scott Hahn, without directly quoting Pope Francis, shared on Facebook the 'Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church on the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons,' published by the CDF in 1986, with the statement: "Holy Father, respectfully and humbly, I beg to differ... if that is indeed what you said. In any case, please clarify and rectify your statement, especially in view of the official teaching of our Lord through the magisterium of His Church." But, the silence from the Vatican has been deafening, with no clarification forthcoming. We must, therefore, ask the Pope for clarification in this serious matter. Please SIGN and SHARE this petition which asks Pope Francis to clarify and rectify remarks attributed to him in support of homosexual civil unions. FOR MORE INFORMATION: 'Cdl.

lifesitenews--2020-12-03--Bishop Schneider pleads for fairness in SSPX sexual abuse accusations

December 3 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) – Recently , one could observe that the Society of St. Pius X ( SSPX ) has been made from various sides a target of attacks in connection with cases of sexual abuse .
The detection and transparent processing of cases of pedophilia should be done in a necessarily objective and thoroughgoing manner , irrespective of the persons or ecclesiastical communities concerned and without making any exceptions .
However , one could get the impression that the SPPX would be the only Catholic religious organization that had to respond to such accusations .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ impression that some of the accusations were conducted in a biased manner .
If the SSPX is accused of failing to prevent and effectively manage cases of pedophilia on the part of its members , then for the sake of fairness , all dioceses around the world and all religious communities should as well be investigated , where in some cases one could find shortcomings maybe to the same or greater extent .
Furthermore , it is part of fundamental justice and logic that religious communities or dioceses can not be held responsible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ employees committed after they had been separated or dismissed from these communities .
If one were to follow such logic , the Augustinian order , for example , would have to be held responsible for the anti-Semitic statements of Martin Luther , their former member .
In coming to terms with atrocities committed by clerics , one should be guided only by truth and justice , without regard to the person .
On the other hand , this coming to terms with the past must not be used to unleash additional personal antipathies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a certain religious community .
Emotional neutrality is necessary for a fair judgment .
The Word of God should be the guiding principle here : “ If you are angry , do not sin !
” ( Eph .
4:26 ) and “ The anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
” ( James 1:20 )

Garcetti threatened those who do not follow his order with “ fines and imprisonment , ” as well as shutting off their utility services , such as electricity and water .
The mayor had been threatening people with shutting off power to their buildings since March .
At the same time , he also encouraged residents to report their neighbors @ @ @ @ @ @ @ orders , saying , “ You know the old expression about snitches ?
Well , in this case , snitches get rewards.
” The newest order exempts “ young children at risk of suffocation and people with certain disabilities ” from wearing a face mask .
In reality , however , it is impossible for those people to go to any businesses considered “ essential , ” since all businesses “ must require workers and customers to wear face coverings.
” “ Business owners and operators are authorized to refuse service to any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ covering and I strongly encourage business owners/operators to do so , ” Garcetti added .
With 4 million residents , Los Angeles is the second-largest city in the nation .
Los Angeles County counts 10 million residents .
Throughout the year , less than 8,000 residents have died with COVID-19 in the entire county .

PETITION UPDATE (8/27/2020)
Thank you for continuing to SIGN and SHARE this petition, which asks policymakers at all levels of government to reverse mandatory mask orders within their borders.
Facebook has restored the share link for this petition, saying that the decision to block it was a 'mistake...'
Please share with your Facebook friends, but we should all take heed of this warning: when an organization or individuals have to beg, plead and cajole just to express objective truths, it may be time to start looking for other social networking platforms.
Facebook needs to treat its users with respect, no matter their political persuasion. Moreover, Facebook needs to treat objective reality and facts with more respect.
One-size-fits-all oppressive government mask mandates must stop!
Healthy adults and children should not be forced - by the state - to wear masks when the risk of infection is low and the benefit of wearing a mask is highly questionable.
________________________________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (8/25/2020)
Facebook is actively censoring this petition, saying that some people find it 'abusive.'
How anyone could find alternate facts about oppressive mask mandates 'abusive' is incredible...that is, impossible to believe.
This is exactly the kind of censorship which Big Tech is getting a bad reputation for.
The fact that Facebook calls differing opinion and objective reality "abusive" says a lot about Facebook and their agenda to silence reason and logic, not just conservatives and Christians.
But, people are more intelligent than Facebook give them credit for.
And, the more this continues, the more reasonable people will look alternate platforms to share their thoughts and connect with their friends and family. The more that happens, the less revenue Facebook will generate.
All of us have a decision to make, and the time is coming where we might have to tell our Facebook friends that we are moving to another platform.
We are encouraging people to continue SIGNING this petition and SHARING it via other platforms such as Parler and Gab, and to share the link below with your family and friends on Whatsapp, Telegram, Threema and Signal.
Thank you!

One-size-fits-all oppressive government mask mandates must stop!
Healthy adults and children should not be forced - by the state - to wear masks when the risk of infection is low and the benefit of wearing a mask is highly questionable.
Please SIGN this petition which asks policymakers at all levels of government to reverse mandatory mask mandates within their borders.
Public health policies should be based on science and logic, not on the type of political posturing and virtue-signaling which led Joe Biden to recently call for a national mask mandate.
And, public health policies certainly shouldn't lead to a situation where more people could become sick.
But, that is exactly what these mandatory mask mandates are doing.
Here are four inconvenient facts about masks:
1) Masks** are largely ineffective at stopping the transmission of viruses.
The vast majority of masks worn by the public are made from material which cannot filter-out viruses because virus particles are too small to catch or obstruct. Wearing cloth masks to stop a virus is like putting a bee in a bird cage to keep it from flying away.
Wearing a mask for long periods of time ensures that the wearer has a warm and moist receptacle around his or her mouth, on which viruses and bacteria can land and accumulate.
Thus, masks are actually likely to have little effect in stopping the spread of COVID-19 acting as a barrier, but could actually make things worse acting as a receptacle.
2) Mandates which call for masks to be worn outdoors are both absurd and oppressive.
3) There are clearly documented hazards of wearing masks for long periods of time.
4) And, since school is on everyone's mind...
Notwithstanding the above information on the ineffectiveness of most masks against viruses, we don't know if asymptomatic children can even transmit the virus.
But, it was a reported in an article in the July 21, 2020 Uk Times that: "There has been no recorded case of a teacher catching the coronavirus from a pupil anywhere in the world, according to one of the UK government's leading scientific advisers."
And, we also know that children are extremely unlikely to get seriously ill or die from COVID infections. In any case, children cannot possibly be expected to wear a mask properly in a way that would cut transmission.
There are still a lot of unknowns about COVID-19, but we have grown in our understanding of this disease since the beginning of the crisis.
The knowledge we have gained should allow government and health authorities to make more nuanced policies than the current one-size-fits-all mask mandates.
Where are the legislative hearings in county commissions, and state, provincial or federal legislatures before these drastic actions are mandated? Where are the open and transparent debates among experts that provide our representatives with the necessary information to make good policy decisions?
The real pandemic is the panic and the resulting tyranny that is being caused by dictatorial governors, corporate media and the monopolistic Big Tech.
The truth is that COVID-19 is like a bad cold for most people; this is not ebola or the plague.
Of course, the very elderly and those with serious health conditions should take precautions or be quarantined, but the rest of society should begin the long process of returning to normality.
The frenzy to force everyone to wear a mask, at all times, has gone beyond all comprehension, and goes against science and logic.
Please SIGN this petition which asks policymakers at all levels of government to reverse any mandatory mask order within the borders of their county, state, province, or country.
Thank you!

Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition **Photo credit: Shutterstock.com Mainstream media sources are promoting offensive suggestions by some doctors that people who refuse a vaccine for COVID-19 should be "punished" by the government and by business - effectively coercing them into taking the vaccine. One group of doctors writing in 'USA Today' suggested that the government impose special taxes (i.e., fines) on people who refuse the vaccination and that business simply refuse to serve them. [see story below]
Another doctor writing in an online publication called 'The Conversation' shamelessly suggested that people who refuse a vaccine should be given a psychoactive drug to induce compliance. [see story below] But, these suggestions are plain political posturing, and have nothing to do with science or with the recent trends of the disease. And, in case they haven't noticed, we live in a democracy not a medical dictatorship! Please SIGN this urgent petition which asks policy-makers and business people, at all levels, to pledge to respect the rights of those who, in good conscience, decide not to vaccinate themselves or their children. People should not have to live in fear of governmental or corporate retribution for refusing a vaccine which is being rushed to market by Big Pharma and their fellow-travelers in NGOs, like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It would be intolerable and immoral for the government or business to coerce someone, and their family, to take a COVID vaccine against their will to avoid a fine, or just so they can do their weekly grocery shopping. Medical freedom must be respected in principle and also in practice. So, it is now time that our policy-makers listen to all voices involved in this vital conversation, and start to represent those who will not tolerate being punished for refusing a vaccine. Simply put, legislatures must begin to act as legislatures again. Questions must be asked. Hearings and investigations must be held. And, the legislatures of each state and country must return to the business of representing the people who voted for them, assuming their rightful place as the originator of legislation. We can no longer accept the dictates of executive branches without question, especially now that, statistically speaking, the initial brunt of the COVID crisis has passed. Neither can we accept the dictates of doctors who seem detached from reality and from science, and who only seem to be attached to the idea of promoting ideas which contribute to the agrandizement of power and control of political interests, and wealth of those who stand to make a lot of money from the sale of a COVID vaccine. Please SIGN this urgent petition which asks government and business leaders to pledge to respect the rights of those who refuse a COVID vaccine, and not seek to punish them for doing so.

lifesitenews--2020-12-03--Hannity blasts ‘media mob’ for ignoring powerful firsthand witnesses of election fraud

December 3 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) – On Tuesday night , Sean Hannity lined up video clips showing one sworn testimony after another of election fraud and misconduct , and seared the “ media mob ” for hypocritically turning a blind eye to the whistleblowers .
“ Now to the mob , the media : Witness testimony in court would be something called evidence , ” Hannity said .
“ You have kept asking , 'Where is the evidence ? '
“ Well , pay attention , we will educate you tonight .
In some jurisdictions , if a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stand in a murder trial case and offers credible testimony , well , that jury can convict based on that eyewitness testimony alone , ” the Fox News host continued .
“ Democrats , the media , they revere whistleblowers , unless it doesn ’ t benefit them politically , ” said Hannity .
“ Now they ignore them .
Now we have hundreds of whistleblowers coming forward .
Many of them , sworn affidavits , first-hand accounts of election irregularities they witnessed.
” “ Well , we don ’ t take orders @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hypocrites .
We ’ ll follow the facts , and tonight , those facts lead us to Michigan , ” said Hannity .
Hannity went on to feature one video clip after another of eyewitnesses testifying in the Michigan Senate to violations of election procedure , and even evidence of outright election fraud .
One poll challenger testified , “ Anytime as a challenger I tried to look at the ballot , and then tried to verify it , I would get two or three of the poll workers literally screaming at me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I did not know that that had been overturned the night before , which would have been helpful .
But at no time were we able actually to physically see the ballot and then see it in the electronic poll book.
” Other witnesses gave stunning testimonies of what they observed as evident fraud .
One said during the Michigan Senate Oversight Committee hearing : “ Not one of the military ballots was a registered voter .
And the ballots looked like they were all exactly the same xeroxed copies of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , across the board .
There wasn ’ t a single Trump vote .
And none of the voters were registered.
” The witness continued : “ They had to manually enter the names and addresses , and a birth date of 1-1-2020 , which would override the system and allow them to enter non-registered voters , of which I saw several that day .
Throughout the day , that ’ s how they would override voters that were neither in the electronic pollbook or the supplemented updated pollbook.
” Another witness said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that every military ballot that was logged into the system had a birth date of January 1st , 1900.
” “ I witnessed the room erupt into thunderous applause and derogatory cheering as Republican poll workers were picked off one by one and ejected from the room repeatedly by police escorts throughout the day .
By the end of the day , they had picked up so many GOP poll workers , that there were probably only a few dozen left to monitor all of the processing stations in the room , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ video clips from a press conference in Virginia presented by the Amistad Project , a civil liberties initiative of the Thomas More Society .
Hannity pointed out that “ one subcontractor for the US Postal Service ( USPS ) in Pennsylvania said he was asked to deliver ballots taken from one state , and cross state lines to another state.
” “ I know I saw ballots with return addresses filled out .
Thousands of them , loaded onto my trailer in NY and headed for Pennsylvania .
But as things became weirder @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wondered why I was driving complete ballots from NY to Pennsylvania .
I didn ’ t know why , so I decided to speak up , ” the USPS whistleblower testified .
Another USPS subcontractor testified : “ An order came down from the Wisconsin - Illinois chapter of USPS that 100,000 ballots were missing .
[ A senior USPS employee ] then told me that his post office had dispatched employees to look for the missing ballots at about 4 am and that only about 7 or 8 were found at UMS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ habit of double-checking for ballots , I believed that to be a lie .
“ I had a conversation with a different USPS employee named Rachael in which she admitted that USPS employees were ordered to backdate ballots that were received too late to be lawfully counted .
I didn ’ t bring this to the attention of any of my USPS supervisors at the time , due to what I perceived to be their hostility towards President Donald Trump , and their evident contempt for the law , ” he continued .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ supporter .
I ’ m not a Biden supporter either .
In fact , I didn ’ t vote for either of the main candidates .
But something profoundly wrong occurred in Wisconsin during the presidential election , and the American people have a right to know about it.
” Hannity pointed out , “ As it stands today , there is a 20,000 vote difference in Wisconsin.
” This is only a fraction of the 100,000 missing ballots reported by the USPS subcontractor , which would be more than enough to swing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is now critical that we as a country get to the bottom of serious allegations made by witnesses and whistleblowers , ” Hannity concluded .

PETITION UPDATE (1/15/2021) -
The events of the past month, and especially the past 10 days, have shaken the faith Americans have in their elected and appoint officials.
We continue to call for investigations to be made into allegations of election fraud. Texas is in the process of prosecuting one political operative for illegal ballot harvesting, and multiple state legislatures have called for investigations, too.
However, the judiciary has severely let down the American electorate.
As we have said all along, the integrity of the election is much bigger than President Trump. Election integrity is at the heart of republican democracy, and if we don't have it, we no longer have a functioning republic.
Therefore, we continue to seek the truth for the election outcome. Perhaps that will only be known in the future when state or federal commissions are established to investigate the instances of election fraud which were witnessed and sworn to, by thousands of Americans of all political persuasions.
In the meantime, you may still sign this petition. Thank you!
___________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/10/20) -
On Wednesday, President Trump tweeted: "We will be INTERVENING in the Texas (plus many other states) case. This is the big one. Our Country needs a victory!"
He is referring to the lawsuit which the state of Texas has filed against Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Georgia in the Supreme Court over changes those states made to their election rules, claiming they violated the U.S. Constitution in the process.
Here is the central part of the argument: if Texas were to allow possible voter fraud to go unchecked in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia, it would be akin to committing fraud upon the people of Texas, who cast their ballots within the framework of the law.
Indeed, this would apply equally to all citizens who voted within the framework of the law across the United States!
President Trump also tweeted that this case is, "very strong...ALL CRITERIA MET."
Please continue to SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition, now.
____________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/7/20) - Since this petition was launched, President Trump's legal team, as well as other concerned citizens, have discovered what appears to be irrefutable evidence of voter fraud in several of the key battleground states, and have initiated legal challenges in six states.
While the situation continues to evolve, this remains a hugely important petition which we encourage you to SIGN and SHARE.
Below, please WATCH and READ about the mounting evidence of voter fraud and how the mainstream media seem determined to ignore even the most egregious instances of vote tampering. Then, please SIGN and SHARE this petition.
'Trump: ‘Our election system is now under assault and siege’ and as president I must defend it'
'Tens of thousands 2020 election votes illegally scanned in Detroit, says Dominion IT contractor'
'Trump campaign files lawsuit demanding ‘a new statewide election for president’ in Georgia'
'Experts flag over 500k ballots in PA with new evidence of major 2020 election voter fraud'
''Smoking gun'? Pennsylvania vote fraud hearing gets gasps from audience'
'FBI and Justice Department have dragged their feet investigating 2020 vote fraud'
''CNN top brass in leaked tape: We won't give Trump 'too much of a platform on his not conceding'
'Twitter censored Trump 63 times over Thanksgiving holiday, Biden untouched'
LifeSite supports President Trump with this petition because we believe he is trying to defend the Constitution, ensuring that electoral fraud does not taint the result of the 2020 general election.
But, since starting this petition, we have launched a separate petition related to the disputed election outcome, calling on the Department of Justice to 'do their job' and engage in meaningful investigations of the mounting evidence of voter fraud.
We believe that conducting forensic audits of ballots and voting machines, as well as issuing subpoenas to collect more evidence, would be a good start.
Thankfully, some of the state started to demand investigations independent of federal agencies. But we still believe that the DoJ needs to use its enormous fact-finding resources to help resolve allegations of election fraud.
Thank you for continuing to SIGN and SHARE all our election-related petitions.
_____________________________________________________________________
Please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition which calls on all Americans to Stand With President Trump as he uses every legitimate means to find out if voter fraud played any role in the election outcome.
Amid allegations of voter fraud, and at a time when the situation with COVID has been used by many of the states to facilitate the use of mail-in ballots on a massive scale, we need to be very careful in dismissing the possibility of voter fraud.
The fact is, the possibility of wide-spread fraud with mail-in ballots is significant.
But, this is not about Donald Trump or Joe Biden! This about whether or not the sanctity of the ballot box has been tampered with!
Please Stand With President Trump as he attempts to defend the integrity of this election, as well as well as the right to vote itself!
Indeed, this is so important, not so much because one election hangs in the balance, but because our democracy, itself, hangs in the balance.
Americans not only have a right to know, but should demand that every legitimate means be used to discover the truth about these elections!
Please SIGN this petition and Stand With President Trump to ensure that these elections were conducted freely and fairly!
While most all Americans believe in playing by the rules, we also know that some very devious, politically-motivated operatives have been trying to harm the Trump administration from before he even took the oath of office.
This fact should lead us to question how some allegations of voter fraud can be so easily dismissed by state election authorities.
We demand to know the truth, and, for the sake of our democracy, we demand that President Trump keep fighting to learn the truth.
Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition today!

DAMASCUS, Syria, December 3, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – The Maronite Archbishop of Damascus has written a letter describing the rejection of church closures and mandated Communion in the hand by the Catholic faithful, observing that they are “showing their trust in Divine Providence.”
Archbishop Samir Nassar, the Maronite Archbishop of the Archeparchy of Damascus, penned the letter entitled “Overcoming Fear,” describing the situation endured generally by Catholics in Syria, but also with specific relation to the recent COVID-19 situation.
Agenzia Fides, the news service of the Pontifical Mission Societies, reported on the Archbishop’s message, which has been written in light of the upcoming Christmas season. A copy, with a slightly different translation, can be found on the Walsingham Blog Facebook page.
The Archbishop describes in painful detail the hardships endured by Catholics in Syria, noting that there is a state of “real economic hardship.” There are “never-ending queues outside the bakers and the petrol stations,” as well as “a lack of domestic gas, and galloping inflation.”
However, Nassar particularly notes the reaction of the faithful to the proposed closure of churches as a supposed attempt to mitigate the spread of the virus. “Faced with Covid-19 the faithful have protested against the locking of the churches and have continued coming to daily Mass,” he said.

Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition PETITION UPDATE (9/26/2020): With President Trump's nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court left by the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, we are closer than we have been in decades to seeing Roe vs. Wade overturned. We now encourage the Senate to confirm Barrett as the next Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Judge Barrett has a fantastic track recond on sanctity of life issues, has seven children, and is a devout believer. She is the perfect remedy for Ruth Bader Ginsburg's radical pro-abortionism. Please READ the full story here: 'BREAKING: Trump nominates Catholic mom of 7 Judge Amy Coney Barrett to Supreme Court' And then, please SIGN this petition telling the High Court that it's now time to end the activist Roe vs. Wade judgment. Thank you! __________________________________________________________________ PETITION UPDATE (6/29/2020): In a decision which has imperiled more abortion-minded women, sentenced more preborn to death, and upset pro-lifers across the nation,the United States Supreme Court decided 5-4 to strike down a Louisiana law requiring basic medical precautions in the event of abortion complications, with Chief Justice John Roberts reversing his own past decision to uphold a similar Texas law. Liberal Justice Stephen Breyer wrote the majority opinion, which held that the Louisiana law was unconstitutional for the simple fact that it was “almost word-for-word identical” to the Texas one the court already struck down in 2016. In his concurring opinion, Chief Justice Roberts acknowledged that he had “joined the dissent in Whole Woman’s Health and continue to believe that the case was wrongly decided. The question today however is not whether Whole Woman’s Health was right or wrong, but whether to adhere to it in deciding the present case.” We call on the Supreme Court to stop supporting the culture of death and overturn Roe vs Wade, now. PETITION UPDATE (1/20/2020): Hundreds of thousands of people will gather in Washington, D.C., this coming Friday, January 24th, for the March for Life. They will be praying for an end to Roe vs Wade, as the Supreme Court will hear a crucial, abortion-related case later this year in March. United our voices can change the course of history. Sign this petition TODAY! (LEARN MORE BELOW) PETITION UPDATE (1/3/2020): In advance of the Supreme Court's hearing arguments in an important abortion case later this year in March, 207 U.S. Senators and Representatives have signed amicus briefs supporting a Louisiana law requiring abortionists to have admitting privileges at a hospital nearby an abortion center. Some of these supporting briefs also suggest that now is the time to reconsider Roe vs Wade as sound law. Please SIGN this petition, calling on the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down Roe vs Wade. _____________________________________________________________________________ More than 60 million Americans have been slaughtered in their mother's wombs as a result of Roe v. Wade. This activist, unconstitutional ruling in 1973 has left countless women emotionally and psychologically scarred. It was believed by many that Roe would be overturned in 1992 with Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Despite having eight Republican-appointed judges at the time, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to uphold it. Since then, major gains have been made in the fight for life, and many lives have been saved. However, Roe v. Wade remains the law of the land, leaving millions of defenseless pre-born children vulnerable to murder. According to a 2016 study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 35% of aborted babies are African American, despite black women only making up six percent of the U.S. population. 19% of aborted babies are Hispanic. We thus again call on the court to do everything they can to end Roe vs Wade. Now is the time for pro-lifers to join together and ensure that all of God's children have a right to life. Roe v. Wade must come to an end!

Agenzia Fides even used the term “rebelled” in their translation, saying that “the faithful rebelled against the closure of churches and insisted on participating in large numbers in the daily Mass.”
Indeed, not only that, but the faithful have also resisted the move to mandate reception of Holy Communion in the hand, choosing to receive on the tongue. “Many feel unable to follow the directives of the Bishops to receive Holy Communion in the hand and insist on receiving it on the tongue as they would normally, so defying the pandemic and showing their trust in Divine Providence.”
Archbishop Nassar also called attention to the detrimental effect which lockdown measures are having on the population, saying that fear and financial hardship are greatly increased: “Covid-19 has made the social life of the people almost unbearable, and has added to their fear and solitude.”
“The closure of the neighbouring borders, coupled with an obligatory Corona virus test at each crossing is an extra expense, and at times a real problem for the families; taxis often cannot run and those without work or resources suffer even more hardship. The problems are aggravated especially in the medical and hospital sections which are faced with the growing numbers of doctors who are leaving the country, and a lack of available medicines.”
Commenting on the Archbishop’s letter, Fides writes that his description “is that of a martyred people and a nation almost destroyed, where the decline in violence and bombing gives way to ‘a harsh economic war’.”
However, the crucial aspect of the letter is the manner in which it highlights the prominence which the Syrian faithful attribute to their faith. Whilst many bishops and priests in western countries are closing churches and stipulating that Communion must be received on the hand instead of the tongue, Archbishop Nassar records that the churches are full of people “showing their trust in Divine Providence.”
His letter hints that the fervent defence of their right to worship is perhaps due to the hardship of life endured by the Syrian Catholics, and their preferred trust in God in the time of restrictions and confusion surrounding COVID-19.
Since Pentecost, Nassar says, the church in Damascus has been “living through a time of prayerful reflection.” It is seeking “a new way of reaching out to others with a newly formed pastoral approach.”
Closing the letter, the Archbishop poses a question relating to the future of the Church in Syria: “Will we know how to continue this journey to be able to celebrate true pardon before the Divine Child?”

In an open letter published in May, Catholic clergy led by former papal nuncio Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò and Cardinals Gerhard Ludwig Mueller, Joseph Zen, and Janis Pujats reminded politicians around the world that “the state has no right to interfere, for any reason whatsoever, in the sovereignty of the church.”
“This autonomy and freedom are an innate right that Our Lord Jesus Christ has given her for the pursuit of her proper ends. For this reason, as pastors we firmly assert the right to decide autonomously on the celebration of Mass and the Sacraments, just as we claim absolute autonomy in matters falling within our immediate jurisdiction, such as liturgical norms and ways of administering Communion and the Sacraments,” the signatories stated.

— Article continues below Petition — DROP Disney+: New teen film 'Out' features openly homosexual main character Show Petition Text 16072 have signed the petition. Let's get to 17500 ! Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition Above Image: WALTDISNEYSTUDIOSCANADA / YOUTUBE It's official: Disney can no longer be considered "family-friendly." Pixar (a subsidiary of Disney) has just released a short film, called "Out," on Disney's new streaming service, Disney+ (pronounced "Disney Plus"). Parents and grandparents need to be warned about "Out" - which promotes the normalization of homosexuality in society - and encouraged not to support Disney's promotion of inappropriate and anti-Christian sexual themes in their films. Please SIGN this pledge not to subscribe to Disney+, or to unsubscribe from Disney+ if you already have the service. Below, please find instructions on how to cancel your Disney+ service. Until the company stops making films with inappropriate, anti-Christian sexual themes, Disney does not deserve our business. Paying for Disney+ continues to encourage the film studio to make children's and teens' films with a sexual agenda purposefully designed to corrupt children. And, we cannot afford to be delusional where our children's welfare is concerned. Of course, people with homosexual inclinations must be respected, but the normalization of homosexuality in society must be rejected. Telling impressionable and innocent children and teens that the homosexual "lifestyle" is normal, when it is, in truth, objectively disordered, is wrong and deceptive. And, this is exactly what Disney is promoting in its new "teens'" films. This is wrong. But, if we actually want to see real, positive change at Disney (AND, we do!), then conservatives and Christians need to take action. Please consider SIGNING this petition which says that you will unsubscribe from Disney+ if you already have the service, or not subscribe at all if you don't presently have it. By making this stand, we can send a message to Disney CEO, Bob Chapek, that Disney should stick to family-friendly entertainment, or lose our business. Please SIGN to 'Drop Disney+', today. Thank you!
