Will Solar UFO Save Hillary?

Remarkable footage shows what appears to be a UFO, orbiting the sun. Experts are speculating that the mysterious object is "sucking energy" from the sun to power Hillary Clinton's flagging efforts to win the White House.

According to one UFOlogist, video footage "shows three long appendages protruding from a main object. It also shows a fourth arm… That is more than two times long as the higher arms. All four arms are solid objects, not trails. 

Orbiting UFO

"It's sucking energy from the star to beam back to Hillary. She needs the extra power."

Hillary recently told a rally in Philadelphia that she was "discouraged" and "depressed."

“Now of course, politics can be discouraging,” stated Clinton to supporters at Temple University, “This election in particular can be down right depressing sometimes.”

Low Energy

Maybe that will change when the mystery starship begins sending badly needed solar power  to Hillary's faltering low energy campaign, but some observers aren't convinced.

Down Right Depressing

"It's just a piece of space junk left over from Jeb!'s dismal campaign," said one source on the condition of anonymity. "All the sun energy in the solar system couldn't save him and it won't help her, either. She's just low power. Maybe she's drained by the 'Oh Shit guy' and the ongoing email disaster."

Useless space junk left behind by Jeb!, or desperate hi-tech experiment to save Hillary's bid for power?

Hillary Blames Trump For NYC Terror Bombing

Presidential hopeful, Hillary Clinton, wasted no time in blaming Donald Trump for terror attacks in New York and elsewhere, calling him an ISIS "recruiting sergeant."

So what does that make Ahmad Khan Rahami, a Trump supporter? In related news, a radicalized member of the LGBTQ community, dubbed "Pepe the Queen," (PTQ) has claimed responsibility for the Chelsea terrorist blasts.

“I did it because I cannot stand society. […] I cannot live in a world where homosexuals like myself as well as the rest of the LGBTQ+ community are looked down upon by society," stated PTQ in a Tumblr blog post.

Harambe declined to comment. DJT continues to climb in the polls.

Peace Explodes in New York

When is an IED in a crowded civilian area, that exploded injuring 29 people, not an act of terrorism? When New York's Mayor, Bill Dhimmi de Blasio says it's not. And how could it be, when Islam's a religion of peace and Islam might, by some weird stretch of the imagination, be implicated.

Aftermath of a Peace Bomb

Here's what ISIS says about the peace explosion, at least on social media:

“The lions of the Caliphate roar in New York, we cause you pain inside your house, the carrier of the Cross,” wrote one Twitter user who went by the name “I am ISIS, come and block me.” The account was soon suspended. Another, called “The Lone Wolves,” tweeted with the Arabic hashtag #ExplosionManhattanNewYork “Oh God burn America, take revenge in the name of your oppressed slaves and believers’ blood.”

Spreading Peace in Minnesota

Nothing quite like a peace bomb, eh? Not to be outdone, another soldier of the Peace God cooked off in Minnesota, hacking at people in a mall with a machete. In the meanwhile, German women are being urged to wear hijabs, you know, just in case they provoke some peace.

SUBMIT

But what about the Pope, the "carrier of the Cross" himself? He's telling us that the way to bring more peace out of the religion of peace is to invite more followers of the religion of peace into what they ironically call the "House of War."

The Papal Flag

That means, presumably, that the Reconquista, Charles Martel, Don Juan and the sailors of Lepanto, the Poles at the siege of Vienna, the Knights of Malta and the doomed defendants of Constantinople had it wrong. Et al.

I refuse to believe that.

Lighten Up!

Readers of this small kebob-stand on the information superhighway, all six of you, are saying, "C'mon, LSP, lighten up! Less Great Russian Art and more God." With the proviso that Great Russian art is both uplifting and educational, let's reflect.

Why is there something rather than nothing? Good question. Because necessity undergirds contingency or, to put it another way, that self-subsistent being, ipsum esse subsistens, the "sheer act of to be itself," causes it.

God articulates this to Moses, speaking out of the unquenchable fire of the burning bush, I AM THAT I AM. He who is is the beginning and the end, the Alpha and Omega of all that is. But His nature is unknowable, existing in the absolute simplicity of pure act from all timeless eternity.

How fortunate, then, that He has revealed Himself as sacrificial love incarnate, in the person of His Son and more than that, has extended his salvific being in the Mystical Body of His Church, which draws all men towards their eternal home. And what awaits there?

Judgement, for sure, but remember, with the repentant thief, this day you will be with me in paradise.

The Exorcist Dies. Rest in Peace, Gabriel Amorth

Fr. Gabriel Amorth, Rome's chief exorcist, has died at the age of 91. Ordained in 1951, Amorth performed an estimated 70,000 exorcisms and has been attributed with revitalizing the ministry of deliverance throughout the world.

According to Spanish theologian, Fr. Jose Antonio Fortea, “His strong, vigorous voice spoke to millions of people about the action of the devil. He alone, one person, managed to revitalize the ministry in one country and then his influence reached everywhere in the Church."

Amorth was explicit in his belief that the devil was active in politics and even the Vatican itself. He was also convinced that a culture which had turned away from God would soon be "admonished" by Him:

“We have forgotten God! Therefore, God will soon admonish humanity in a very powerful manner, He knows how to remind us of His presence.”

As well as fighting evil in the spiritual sphere, Amorth was no stranger to fighting it in the temporal. He was awarded the Medal of Liberation for his service against the Nazis as a partisan in World War Two.

May he rest in peace,

Les Deplorables and Harambe

People were saying, not that long ago, that DJT would have a chance if he'd actually start to campaign, as in campaign, as opposed to simply sounding off. Those were the days when the fabled New York Times and the august Washington Post were confidently predicting a landslide for Hillary.

All the lib elite smugnoscenti were saying it, just look at that vulgar buffoon. Smart people like us and our Millionaire Socialist Vineyard candidate, Hillary, have to win, it's just common sense. Ratio Mitt Uns, as it were. Then things changed.

DJT's team started campaigning, as Hillary's knees disastrously buckled, she lost a shoe, and had to be bundled into a waiting SUV, like a bag of diseased rock salt. All that, after calling working class Americans who support Trump "deplorables." Barbara Streisand probably loved it.

So did Trump's campaign, who seized the moment, turned on a dime, and brought everyone a Les Deplorables rally in Miami while Hillary was busy swapping notes with her body double, as if anyone cared. 

And, not to outdo themselves, they trolled the NWO globalist elite, propaganda arm press, into live-covering a birther event in DC. And on. 

Here's the thing, one candidate for the Presidency is promising to put miners and steelworkers back to work. He says he cares about working people. The other is fundraising, when she's well enough, with her bi-coastal elite, millionaire socialist, celebrity friends. She cares too, but for a different demographic.

Who's best? You be the judge.

Great Russian Art

Russia, land of Patriarchs, Mystics and Tzars, is also home to great art. Here's a small sample:

The famous Moscow Happy Birthday.

Innovative still life, Stuck in the Trunk!

Riders.

The controversial Freedom of Speech.

And, of course, The Spanking.

Here at the Compound, we hope that you've enjoyed this odyssey through Russia's artistic renaissance. Let's hope there's more to come!

Mirror, Mirror

Thanks, AnglicanInk, for the infographic

Just when you thought that the venerable Church of England had slid off the abyss and into the icy void of deep space, up comes this. The shrinking denomination's College of Bishops have formed a "reflection group on sexuality." What will they see in the mirror?

Giles Fraser and Aleister Crowley

Perhaps they'll see the famous Aleister Crowley lookalike, Rev. Cursitor Doom, popularly known as "Giles Fraser."

Nice Looking Sex Change, Rachel

Then again, they might see Rachel "Heavy Metal" Mann, the curiously named trans Canon of Manchester Cathedral.

The Bishop of Norwich

Or maybe just themselves.

Bohemian Grove

The official teaching of the Anglican Communion is that marriage is something that occurs between a man and a woman. Humans have always believed that, unless they're channeling the artistic Emperor Nero. Perhaps the reflecting Divines will see his spirit in the mirror?

Blast Off! Flight 93

Over at CRB, Publius Decimus Mus blasts Conservative Intellectuals, the Davoisie, Hillary and more. Here's a snapshot:

If conservatives are right about the importance of virtue, morality, religious faith, stability, character and so on in the individual; if they are right about sexual morality or what came to be termed “family values”; if they are right about the importance of education to inculcate good character and to teach the fundamentals that have defined knowledge in the West for millennia; if they are right about societal norms and public order; if they are right about the centrality of initiative, enterprise, industry, and thrift to a sound economy and a healthy society; if they are right about the soul-sapping effects of paternalistic Big Government and its cannibalization of civil society and religious institutions; if they are right about the necessity of a strong defense and prudent statesmanship in the international sphere—if they are right about the importance of all this to national health and even survival, then they must believe—mustn’t they?—that we are headed off a cliff.

And don't kid yourselves about Hillary:

A Hillary presidency will be pedal-to-the-metal on the entire Progressive-left agenda, plus items few of us have yet imagined in our darkest moments. Nor is even that the worst. It will be coupled with a level of vindictive persecution against resistance and dissent hitherto seen in the supposedly liberal West only in the most “advanced” Scandinavian countries and the most leftist corners of Germany and England. We see this already in the censorship practiced by the Davoisie’s social media enablers; in the shameless propaganda tidal wave of the mainstream media; and in the personal destruction campaigns—operated through the former and aided by the latter—of the Social Justice Warriors. We see it in Obama’s flagrant use of the IRS to torment political opponents, the gaslighting denial by the media, and the collective shrug by everyone else.

It’s absurd to assume that any of this would stop or slow—would do anything other than massively intensify—in a Hillary administration.

On the "mystic chord" of "mass immigration":

Oh, right—there’s that other issue. The sacredness of mass immigration is the mystic chord that unites America’s ruling and intellectual classes. Their reasons vary somewhat. The Left and the Democrats seek ringers to form a permanent electoral majority. They, or many of them, also believe the academic-intellectual lie that America’s inherently racist and evil nature can be expiated only through ever greater “diversity.” The junta of course craves cheaper and more docile labor. It also seeks to legitimize, and deflect unwanted attention from, its wealth and power by pretending that its open borders stance is a form of noblesse oblige. The Republicans and the “conservatives”? Both of course desperately want absolution from the charge of “racism.”... 

This is insane. This is the mark of a party, a society, a country, a people, a civilization that wants to die. Trump, alone among candidates for high office in this or in the last seven (at least) cycles, has stood up to say: I want to live. I want my party to live. I want my country to live. I want my people to live. I want to end the insanity.

So he comes out reluctantly swinging for Trump and in light of the above, perhaps Conservative Intellectuals  and their Washington Generals should be thankful that Hillary's looking more and more like a dying ghost.

Threeper Bass Blitz

Don't get me wrong, Bluegill fishing is pretty fun, a lot of fun, even, and they're good for the fry up. But when you've caught a relaxing cooler full you start to wonder if there's more adventure to be had in Seaworld, well, Lakeworld. And there is, Bass Blitz!

There you are, reeling in the ferocious panfish from the limestone bank when off to your left, maybe 100 yards away, there's a sound like frying bacon. But it's not bacon, or the warming noise of a crackling fire, it's fish, leaping up out of the water in a blitzing feeding frenzy.

Look Out! Blitz Starting! Come on You Fish!

If only they were closer! you think as you hoist up another piranalike fighter and, just in case, you rig up a topwater lure on your backup rod. I chose a large Heddon Super Spook, why? Because I wanted the lure to be weighty enough for a long cast.

Ah Ha!

Sure enough, the Blitz came in, as the leaping Bass tore up the water within 30 or 40 yards. So I got on them with the Spook. Bang! and the lure went down. Big fun, I tell you. But here's the thing, the Spook was too big and I'd have caught more with a Tiny Torpedo, still, hindsight's 20/20.

See The Rain?

Then rain came in, the lake grew choppy and the Blitz subsided into the deep, leaving me with no option but to head to a desk, a computer and a printer. Please don't laugh, it's true.

Threeper

For some reason a Threeper Pie seems appropriate.

Swedish Witch Hunter Breaks Free

A notorious Swedish Witch Hunter has escaped from a Hassleholm psychiatric facility during a 15 minute "free walk."

The Witch Hunter was arrested in 2015 and sentenced to four months in a mental hospital for planning to attack 56 people, including his former wife. In court, the man claimed he was working with the Swedish Secret Service and that he was "God's judge."

"I am God's judge. I point the finger and say who's guilty," said the Witch Hunter during his trial.

The whereabouts of the Witch Hunter are currently unknown and when asked if extra security measures had been put in place, Hillary Clinton's campaign team declined to comment.

During an interview about his wife's health, Bill Clinton explained that Hillary was "like a demon."

Fall From Grace And Hit The Ground

Who knew that Hillary was seriously sick? Really sick, knees buckle, loses shoe sick. No fooling, maybe it's Parkinson's, or demonic possession, experts are undecided.

Her security detail wasn't short in acting to lift her spasmodically twitching body into the waiting SUV. They were probably used to it, train, train, train.

She emerged, later, from her daughter's $10 million apartment. Nothing quite like being a millionaire socialist, eh? And who knows, was there a secret medical team waiting in that million dollar facility?

For that matter, was the person who walked out of it Hillary, or some other thing?
