Tea at Trianon: Terrorist Murder of Christian School Children

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

Terrorist Murder of Christian School Children

From Catholic Culture:

The sheer horror of it. The overwhelming sadness for all those affected by it. The fear for the safety of our own little ones. (Five of my seven kids attend Catholic schools. A sixth teaches at one.) The danger of transgenderism, both the ideology and the scientific quackery, which is making all of us less safe. The obtuseness of politicians who want us to ignore every possible reason for school shootings except for guns, always guns, and only guns, the only thing we are ever allowed to talk about. The outrageousness of public officials who criticize prayer. The anti-Catholic discrimination by state governments who refuse to fund security for private schools at the same level they do for public schools. And on and on.

Others, I’m sure, will be writing about these things in the weeks and months ahead. I may have more to say about them too. But right now, I want to focus on the importance of the vibe shift. Because I am concerned that, in the crush of all these other related matters, it will be missed. And it should not be. It is the key to solving the problem.

What I mean is this. Two years ago another transgender terrorist, Audrey Hale, deliberately targeted and murdered children at another Christian school, Covenant Presbyterian in Nashville. But the media and the politicians would not describe the matter as clearly as I just did in my previous sentence. Instead, they obfuscated and gaslit the public. Minneapolis will be different because the mood of the public is different. Before we get to what that means, consider what we have been through. (Read more.)

From Forbidden News:

An investigation by Tony Seruga on X found that the cellphones and laptops of trans-identifying Minneapolis Catholic School shooter, Robert "Robin" Westman, who killed two children and wounded 18 others on Wednesday have been present during at least five Antifa protests. Numerous "burner" phones were also found to have been present at his home.
Westman's devices also appeared to have been present with a number of Zizian cult followers including with their founder Jack LaSota, on two occasions two months apart.
Jack "Ziz" LaSota is a transwoman leader of the Zizian "Trans Murder Cult" who was indicted by a federal grand Jury in Maryland last June for "their" involvement in a series of six nationwide deaths and violence in Vermont and California. (Read more.)
