Fr. Frank Pavone is the national director of the Priests for Life the largest pro-Life ministry in the Catholic Church.

FR. FRANK PAVONE is one of the most prominent pro-life leaders in the world. Originally from New York, he was ordained in 1988 by Cardinal John O’Connor, and has dedicated his entire life and ministry to ending abortion. In 1993 he requested and received permission to serve as the National Director of Priests for Life, the largest pro-life ministry in the Catholic Church. He is also the President of the National Pro-life Religious Council, and the National Pastoral Director of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign, and of Rachel’s Vineyard, the world’s largest ministry of healing after abortion.

In December news broke that the Vatican dismissed Fr. Frank Pavone from the clerical state for “blasphemous communications on social media.”

Hi friends… So in every profession, including the priesthood, if you defend the #unborn, you will be treated like them!
The only difference is that when we are “aborted,” we continue to speak, loud and clear.

Father Pavone has not let this papal decision slow him down or divert him from his mission to save and protect the unborn.

Pavone joined Addison Smith on One America News Network earlier this week to discuss the latest whistleblower document exposing the out-of-control FBI. According to this latest release, the FBI is targeting traditional Catholics now. This is in direct conflict with the US Constitution and a shocking indictment of the country’s premier investigative body.

Father Pavone : We don’t believe that America has second-class citizens. Catholics are just as much a voice in public policy as anybody else. But some of them are weak and don’t want to take a stand. Others will take a stand. And that’s what this administration is going after. It’s not about Catholic doctrine. It’s about are we going to challenge the immoral, ungodly policies of the Democrat Party… This Democrat Party leadership, they see a threat both in the Constitutional traditional Americans and the Bible-believing Christians whether they are Catholic or not. What they’re concerned about is those who are going to stand up and change things.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has said in a statement that the agency intercepted rare insects in a shipment of fresh celery at the Otay Mesa Cargo Facility.

The find is a first-in-port discovery.

According to a press release from CBP, the fresh celery shipment arrived at the Otay Mesa Cargo Facility on January 16.

“During initial inspection, a CBP Officer referred the driver and cargo load for an intensive agriculture inspection,” the statement said. “At the inspection area, CBP Agriculture Specialists conducted thorough examinations and found one live chrysomelidae and one live lepidoptera within the shipment of celery.”

Upon finding the rare pests, the shipment was turned around and sent back to Mexico.

“The pest was submitted to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) Identifiers for further identification,” CBP said. “The traveler and shipment were then returned directly to Mexico.”

Two days after the initial stop, on January 18, the lepidoptera was identified by the local USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) PPQ Entomologist as actionable Copitarsia species. The chrysomelidae was later identified by national specialists as actionable Isotes multipunctate (Jacoby), according to the press release.

The CBP said that “per local USDA APHIS PPQ, this qualifies as a ‘first-in-port’ for Isotes multipunctate (Jacoby) in the Otay Mesa Cargo Facility.”

“Although this not the first time finding this pest nationwide, it is a first-time discovery of this pest at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry. The impressive find demonstrates CBP’s efforts to prevent invasive species from entering the United States, and ways for industry to prevent conveyance contamination. CBP encourages travelers to declare all agricultural items to a CBP officer upon arrival. For more information, travelers are encouraged to visit the Bringing Agricultural Products into the United States section of the CBP website.”

Foreign pests can be extremely harmful to local agriculture.

“Foreign insects, plant and animal diseases, and invasive plants, can be harmful to United States agriculture. It is an important part of the CBP mission to identify and stop pests and diseases at the border prior to entering the country,” said Rosa Hernandez, CBP Otay Mesa Port Director.
