Who will the next Pope be? And how does that matter within the confines of the great awakening? Join me as I take a dive on who the contenders are, and what surprises may be in store as well as the possibility that Pope Francis already had his "Bad May". Image Let me begin by saying I am not Catholic, however - The Catholic Church, and the process of selecting a Pope are both topics which have fascinated me for quite some time and are both topics which I have spent some time researching. 

Pope Francis’ health has been front and center over the last few weeks as the 88 year old Pontiff has encountered multiple ailments and is currently hospitalized while fighting pneumonia. He has suffered two respiratory emergencies during this hospital stay but as of the time of this article, he is stable. 

Catholics the world over have been advised to take to the Rosary and pray for Pope Francis. I have to admit, from a standpoint of logic and reason, it isn’t looking good for him. 

But I digress … 

My aim in this article is to take a look at some of the candidates which seem to have the strongest case for becoming the next Pope of the Catholic Church, and what candidate, if any, has the potential to reshape the Catholic Church. With Conservatism on the rise, and many countries leaning to the right, one would have to consider the Catholic Church going back to its’ conservative ideologies would be yet another huge win on the global stage for those fighting to stave off world wide communism. 

Before we get there. How is a Pope elected? What does this process look like? 

This short clip will give a brief overview of what I will be discussing:

🧵 THREAD: The Stage Is Being Set 🧵

(1) The Insurrection Act is a topic which has been discussed time and time again in this movement. 

I’d hazard a guess that back in 2017, not many of us knew very much about it - if anything at all. Sure, many of us probably heard about it in passing, or from past instances of it being declared (The L.A Riots in 1992, as an example), at the same time - I seriously doubt very many of us understood exactly what it is, nor how powerful a tool it can be for a President. 

In this article, I am going to do my best to explain the Insurrection Act, as well as the 14th Amendment. I’m also going to take a look at their implications, and the many signs and comms I have seen that may very well be a telling of things still to come. 

The first thing I wanna do is dive into the Insurrection Act and hopefully do it justice in explaining what it is, and when/how/why it can be enacted and implemented.  

In short, the Insurrection Act is a Federal Law that allows the President to utilize the Military, as well as the National Guard within the United States to suppress a perceived insurrection or rebellion. 

Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the U.S Military is extremely reduced in its capacity to police its own citizens. The Insurrection Act provides a statutory exception from the Posse Comitatus Act. Meaning - The U.S Military can be used to police its own populace.Image (2) Now, many pundits (and the uneducated) will make the argument that the President requires state approval to declare the Insurrection Act. This is simply not true as seen below.

It is laid out pretty clearly that the President does not need State approval to declare the Insurrection Act, The President can, and has, declared the Insurrection Act on numerous occasions sans a request from the State itself. 

Here are a few examples:

Andrew Jackson invoked the Insurrection Act in 1831 to put down a slave rebellion by Nat Turner, and again in 1834 to settle a labor dispute by workers of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. 

Ulysses S. Grant invoked it several times. Most notably for the suppression of the KKK in 1871, and again used it to quell unrest after the contested gubernatorial election in Louisiana in 1872. 

Rutherford B. Hayes invoked it in 1878 in the famous “Lincoln County War” - which of course involved the infamous Billy The Kid. 

Tensions brought forth by the Pullman Strike of 1894 forced Grover Cleveland to invoke the act, and again in 1914 during what became known as the “Great Coalfield War” when President Wilson invoked the Insurrection Act to suppress that uprising. 

In 1943, FDR used it to suppress the Detroit Race Riots. 

Eisenhower used it in order to protect the “Little Rock 9”, and even JFK used it multiple times - mostly to quell racial tensions and unrest and to force desegregation in Alabama schools in 1963. 

Lyndon B. Johnson enacted it on 4 separate occasions. In 1967 he used it to quell racial tensions in Detroit. He again used it 3 separate times in 1968 - In DC, Chicago and Baltimore to suppress riots and outrage after MLK Jr’s assassination. 

The most recent instance it was utilized was in 1992 when George H.W Bush declared it to suppress the L.A riots. 

George W. Bush contemplated invoking it in New Orleans after Katrina, but ultimately decided not to. 

Do you know what all of those have in common? In not one instance, was the state notified, or asked for permission. Because the belief that this must be done is a fallacy. Plain and simple, if the Commander In Chief deems that there is an Insurrection or Rebellion taking place, they can then declare the Insurrection Act and send in the military. 

Basically, it is NOT as rare of an occurrence in this country as many MSM talking heads would lead you to believe.Image

I’m not even quite sure how to start, so I’m just going to go ahead and start.

If you’ve followed me for any length of time, it is well known that the very topic that got me diving down the rabbit hole to begin with so many years ago was the assassination of John F. Kennedy, which of course took place on this day 61 years ago.

I remember it so vividly. I was 12 years old, and my mother and father were watching the Oliver Stone movie JFK. I’m not sure what it was that grabbed me, but something about it latched on and never let go.

Hell, I even caught In School Suspension in the 7th grade for arguing with my history teacher and asserting that there was no way Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

This is not going to be your typical JFK article/thread, by the way. I could focus on the conspiracy angle and talk all day about the who/what/when/where/how. And while I am certain some of that will come up, I feel compelled to share my personal experiences involving the very topic which set me on this path I am on today.Image Like I said, back then - I have no idea what drew me to JFK, or his assassination. I recall watching every documentary I could find, reading every book .. I mean everything.

For as young as I was, I certainly dove in head first. Looking back, I can only assume that this draw/pull to the JFK assassination was probably inherit in my soul. It was probably something planted there by the Creator which would ultimately guide me towards this very path I walk today.

Growing up, and even through my formative and adult years, I had always wanted to visit Dealey Plaza, The Eternal Flame, and The Kennedy Space Center. I’m not sure why - maybe perhaps because I felt visiting each place would somehow give me the answers I sought, or maybe make me feel more connected to the man, the time, and the populace that was shaken to it’s core by his death.

As it turns out, it was none of those things.

Arriving At The Precipice: A Thread Image “This is fine”. The meme has become reality. The question is: What do we do when the world around us is falling down? 

“I know the pieces fit, cuz I watched them fall away”

Poignant, and prescient lyrics from Tool’s song Schism. A song which I am sure I will reference again before this article is over.

At some point in all of our lives everything just “fit”. There was a time in history when the United States was the what the founding fathers dreamed it could be. And then Communists began infiltrating every facet of society. We know the pieces fit because we watched them slowly fall away.

I believe we can put them back together. I believe that even though we are in arguably the darkest period in history in recent memory, that we stand on the verge of a beautiful sunrise. We just have to stay in the fight. Which can be a hell of a lot easier said than done, I admit.
