Joe Biden Is Inducted as 'Master Mason' at Freemason Grand Lodge in South Carolina | 25 Jan 2025 | Former U.S. President [sic] Joe Biden, a self-professed Catholic, has joined an African American Masonic lodge as a "Master Mason." The Vatican takes a dim view of Freemasonry, and Catholics who join the fraternal order face excommunication. Biden was inducted into the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge in South Carolina on Sunday, one day before he left office. In a private ceremony, the lodge's grand master, Victor C. Major, granted Biden "Master Mason membership with full honors," according to a statement published by the organization last weekend that circulated online on Friday. Biden has not publicly acknowledged joining the ranks of the Prince Hall Masons. However, his membership in the organization stands at odds with his Catholic faith.

Trump revokes security detail for Fauci | 25 Jan 2025 | President Donald Trump confirmed on Friday that he has [thankfully] terminated the security detail provided to Dr. Anthony Fauci [probably the most prolific serial killer in history] at the taxpayer's expense. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) requested security for Fauci in 2020 to protect him from threats he received as the top health official and public spokesperson during the COVID-19 pandemic [that Fauci and his merry band of bio-terrorists created at the behest of the deep state]. But that detail was pulled on Thursday night, CNN first reported. Trump was asked about the decision Friday while visiting Asheville, North Carolina, to tour areas impacted by Hurricane Helene. "I think, you know, when you work for government, at some point your security detail comes off and, you know, you can't have them forever," Trump said. "We took some off other people, too, but you can't have a security detail for the rest of your life because you work for government," he added.

U.S. suspends aid to Ukraine - Politico | 24 Jan 2025 | U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has frozen nearly all new aid grants to Ukraine for 90 days, Politico reported on Friday.

Rubio instructed diplomatic and consular posts to issue "stop-work orders" on nearly all "existing foreign assistance awards," Politico said, citing an internal document. According to Politico, the order "shocked" [swamp-laden] State Department officials and appears to apply to funding for military assistance to Ukraine. The magazine cited three current and two former officials familiar with the matter as saying Rubio's guidance means that "no further actions will be taken to disperse aid funding to programs already approved by the U.S. government."
