Carefully read this paragraph in an article by Stephanie Sault of The New York Times. It’s about the new vice presidential candidate.:
“When his book, ‘Hillbilly Elegy,’ was published in 2016, JD Vance sent an email apologizing to a close friend from his Yale Law School days,” writes Sault. “The friend identified as transgender, but Mr. Vance referred to them in the book as a lesbian.”
“Them”? Plural?
That’s what it said.
And an irony here, for if transgenderism is caused by spirits, which we believe is often, even mostly, the case, it might be closer to the truth (“them”) than Stephanie et al. realize. One could also call it “legion.”
———————————-
Speaking of transgenders and assorted other permutations of our species, there was the opening ceremony in Paris of the Olympics, a travesty indeed: “drag queens” and the like in a pose resembling the Last Supper.
What about Western Europe? You think only America has lost it?
It’s distasteful to even run the photos.
But it brings matters into sharp relief. It is what Sister Lucia dos Santos of Fàtima called a “diabolic disorientation.”
Pray for these poor folks and always remember to purify inwardly.

When it comes to bringing things into focus, so did the weather. Recall that last week, “Rain clouds covered most of Paris on Friday morning as the weather threatened to, quite literally, rain on Olympics organizers’ parade,” said one news article.
Blared Reuters that day:
Paris Olympics opening ceremony faces rainfall ‘disaster’
The inclement weather is now giving way to unusual, searing heat.

There was also that blackout that left Paris in the dark (via Twitter).
Paris is hit by a ‘power blackout’, claim social media users—a day after city was battered by rain and transport system was brought to its knees by protesters.
That was the headline in the London Mail. Turns out the only place illuminated in one area (at least according to Twitter) was a church, Sacre Coeur or Sacred Heart (see it in the background, on the left horizon, above and close-up below).
Did God have a Hand in it?
That’s our take.
Meanwhile, in the U.S.:
“Freaky footage captured a swarm of dragonflies turning a Rhode Island beach into a scene akin to a biblical plague over the weekend,” says the New York Post. “The seemingly endless swarm of dragonflies descended on Misquamicut Beach in Westerly on Saturday, when a cloud of the insects started buzzing across the beach, under umbrellas and chairs, past faces and between legs.”
There is also the heat, exceeding Paris (especially in Vegas and Death Valley).
In California, “fire devils.”
And storms?
Head for the Midwest.
“For hundreds of years, I have come down time and time again, in many places throughout the world,” said the Virgin at the now-approved Rosa Mystica apparitions. “If, since my Assumption into Heaven, I had not returned frequently to the earth to gather my children around me, the world without my motherly and loving intervention would to a great extent have grown cold and dry toward the world.”
Pray. That’s what the Blessed Mother keeps telling us. Donate a little of the time you normally spend on social media or immersed in vitriolic politics praying for inner purity and our fellow men (of whatever variegation).

[Footnote: notes a viewer, Maria Meszaros of Detroit: “The Illuminated Church – The ROMAN CATHOLIC BASILICA OF THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS: From Wikipedia: ‘The Basilica was first proposed by … the Bishop of Nantes, in 1870 after the defeat of France and the capture of Napoleon III … in the Franco-Prussian War. HE ATTRIBUTED THE DEFEAT OF FRANCE TO THE MORAL DECLINE OF THE COUNTRY SINCE THE FRENCH REVOLUTION, and proposed a new Parisian church dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.’ THE BASILICA DEDICATED TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS WAS BUILT AS PENANCE AND REPARATION, TO ASK GOD TO HELP WITH THE MORAL DECLINE OF FRANCE!
