A forensic study has rejected long-standing claims of an organised network of 'stolen babies' in Spain during the second half of the 20th century. Conducted by five forensic geneticists from the National Institute of Toxicology and Forensic Sciences (INTCF), the research was published in March. What did the "narrative" claim? The 'stolen babies' narrative, which gained widespread attention in the 2000s and 2010s, alleged that, during the Franco era and beyond (1950s–1990s), newborn babies were systematically taken from their parents in hospitals. Mothers were told their babies had died, while the children were allegedly given to other, regime-loyal families - sometimes for money. The narrative described a coordinated network involving medical staff, hospital administrators and religious institutions, including Catholic institutions. Advocacy groups and reports have claimed that up to 300,000 babies were stolen. The first religious figure to be formally investigated was Sister María …Okuningi
Epstein Files - Conflict of Interest In leading certain responsibilities of the handling of the Epstein files,The New York Timesdescribed Blanche as having an "unusual, Janus-faced position". Although Blanche's involvement with Trump, an Epstein associate, was not believed to be a conflict-of-interest, it presented a complex situation. According to theTimes, he personally signed the Department of Justice's motion to unseal grand jury testimony in the case againstGhislaine Maxwell, Epstein's accomplice, after the prosecutor who worked on the Epstein and Maxwell cases,Maurene Comey, was fired. Additionally, Blanche had a personal relationship with David Oscar Markus, Maxwell's counsel. In July, Blanche requested a meeting with Maxwell. In preparation for the meeting, Blanche allowed Markus to access grand jury testimony, a move that could have allowed Maxwell to obtain information useful in seeking an appeal for her conviction.

New details about Epstein's lenient plea deal revealed in DOJ files cbsnews Jeffrey Epstein's controversial 2008 plea deal for charges including soliciting a minor for prostitution has long drawn scrutiny, and newly released details are raising further questions about the months he spent on work release from a Florida jail. Epstein pleaded guilty and surrendered to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office in July 2008. Dozens of accusers from several states, many underage at the time of the alleged crimes, had been prepared to testify against him on federal sex trafficking charges, but the case was shelved in exchange for his agreement to plea to lesser state charges in Florida. Many survivors of Epstein's crimes and other critics of the plea agreement have called it a "sweetheart deal." After serving fewer than four months in jail, Epstein was granted a special arrangement that allowed him to leave custody for up to 16 hours a day, six days a week, as part of a work release program, …Okuningi
Paul White Gold Eagle @PaulGoldEagle THE WORLD'S OLDEST PAINKILLER. Five thousand years before Tylenol. Three thousand years before aspirin. Four thousand years before penicillin. The ancient Egyptians already had a medicine that killed bacteria, blocked pain, healed wounds, and reduced inflammation. They used it so much and valued it so highly that they stockpiled it in their royal tombs. Archaeologists have found myrrh resin in Egyptian burial chambers dated to 3,000 BC, still fragrant after five millennia. The Ebers Papyrus, written around 1,550 BC and considered one of the oldest medical texts in existence, lists myrrh in over 50 separate prescriptions. For infected wounds. For tooth pain. For mouth ulcers. For joint aches. For stomach problems. The Babylonians traded it across the entire ancient world. The ancient Chinese documented it in their medical texts over 2,000 years ago. King Solomon wrote about it in the Song of Solomon. Jesus was offered myrrh mixed with wine as a …Okuningi

Epstein in Paris: How a Sex Offender Hustled for Access to France’s Elite Jeffrey Epstein spent his last days of freedom in Paris, meeting with influential figures. It was a playbook he used everywhere he lived to stamp a veneer of respectability on a life of sordid criminality. nytimes.com/…/world/europe/epstein-paris-france- … In his last days as a free man, busy in his part-time home of Paris, Jeffrey Epstein did not appear like someone who dreaded a legal reckoning. There were meetings with architects and interior decorators. A dinner with Norwegian diplomats. Appointments with a Russian French mathematician and a Kuwaiti former official. It was a Paris sojourn like countless others for Mr. Epstein, whose every-other-month visits since the early 2000s had been a mix of restless networking, real estate shopping and, according to testimony gathered by French prosecutors, systematic sex trafficking. It was a playbook used by Mr. Epstein in every place he lived: From Manhattan to …Okuningi

Al Jazeera confirms the Trump administration's near total fuel blockade on Cuba is causing infant mortality to surge. Doctors are literally operating blind in the dark as life saving machines shut off. This is a deliberate crime against humanity.
Thank GOD at least Russia has sent them oil and gas. Over 100,000 tones first ship alone. Trump backed down from blocking Russia, but he backed off. Putin probably gave him a good speech on morals and GOD! Something trump doesn't know nor understand at all.
Hundreds of empty seats during Leo XIV’s Easter Vigil: Matt Butorac, a Catholic pilgrimage guide, reported on X that there were “hundreds of empty seats” during the Easter Vigil at St Peter’s Basilica. The screenshots, taken from a video he shared for "those claiming it was not empty", show the basilica during the baptisms. Butorac attributes this to ticketing issues and disorganised queues. However, shortly before the Eucharist began, entry was permitted without tickets and everyone was able to enter.
EMTY SEATS: Catholic Traveler had a video on X.com from yesterday's Easter Night Eucharist with Leo XIV. Screenshots (fair use)
@sp2 I see your point and you could be correct. The published pic on this site showed less than a dozen empty seats which were probably in the back of the church. Unfortunately, too many media-types on both sides of any issue are inclined to push a narrative rather than inform their readers.
@sp2 perhaps you should share with us the specific time-mark in the vid you posted where it contradicts the conclusion that there were “hundreds of empty seats” during the service. The posted vid appears to only capture the seating in the front of the church.
Queen of Heaven, most blessed among women, who art crowned with the stars and clothed with the sun, look with favor, we pray, on these thy children who seek to glorify thy Divine Son. Graciously send thy defender, Michael, to protect all involved in this holy project from the attacks of Satan, and to preserve them from every spiritual and physical harm.
Fri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:00 pm EDTFri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:25 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — On this week’s episode of Faith and Reason, John-Henry Westen, Father Charles Murr, and Frank Wright discussed the prayer the cast and crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ” are reciting for protection while filming that Mel Gibson shared exclusively with LifeSiteNews. The panel also discussed Jim Caviezel being recast for the highly anticipated film, Pope Leo getting caught on a hot mic telling American bishops to raise their voices about immigration, Leo appointing Cardinal Blase Cupich to the Pontifical Commission of the Vatican City State, and more. Westen read a prayer Mel Gibson has shared with LifeSiteNews, which the cast, directors, producers, and entire crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ,” the much-anticipated follow-up to his 2004 film “The Passion of the Christ,” are reciting as they begin filming in Rome. The prayer invokes the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Michael the …
This is Easter Mass in 1940. Does anyone, serious about their faith, genuinely think Vatican II and the Novus Ordo and John Paul II’s communion in the hand standing were improvements on Catholic tradition?
