In the middle of the insanity and uncertainty that has been 2020, we must not forget the things that matter from history. December 7th is a day to pause and reflect on those who fought and lost their lives so that we could voice our objections to the injustice that is going on at the moment. We enjoy freedom thanks to their sacrifice. The attack cost the lives of 2,334 servicemen and servicewomen and wounded another 1,143.
The attack at Pearl Harbor was both a blessing and a curse, depending upon which side of the pond you lived. For the Americans, it marked the beginning of a bloody war that resulted in so very many dead and wounded; so much misery and pain. For the British, Australians, New Zealanders and other allies, it was an injection of much needed support - both moral and material.
We, sitting here today in our homes around the world, must take sober reflection about dates of National and International importance: without marking these days and moments from history, we will forget and that would be a travesty.

I have just started watching the Georgia Rally and I am not crying. It is hayfever.
The crowd chants " We love you " and I am sitting here, in my home in Queensland Australia and calling out " I love you! ". I had to close my front door so my neighbours don't call the men in their long white coats to come and take me away.
Someone in the chat room on the RSBN stream just wrote:
" Make George Orwell fiction again. " How true.
The man on the stage is President Trump and he is the ONLY person on the planet right now who can make that so.
Wandering recently through an arcade popular with the green smoothie set, I saw a sign boasting: “Plant Based Meat”.
Someone should advise those nutritional dunderheads that all real meat is plant-based. Real beef and lamb are built from live plants like grasses, lucerne and mulga, plus salt, minerals and clay; the best chicken is built mostly on seeds and shoots of wheat, corn and grasses plus a few worms, insects and gizzard-grit; and when I was a kid our bacon was built by porkers from pollard, whey and vegetable scraps.
When I first read about this I wondered how on earth an island, owned by the people of Queensland had been leased to China. It troubled me. So I started digging and I have been down the rabbit hole for a week or more.

We seem to be so pre occupied with fear and tales of terror these days, don't we? If you are not careful with your choice of news broadcaster, you could believe that the end of the world is nigh.
The problem is that it does not matter which broadcaster you choose, all that is being reported is that the end of the world, as we know it, is on our very doorstep. If I am to believe my heart, I sincerely believe that if President Trump is cheated, yes, cheated, out of this election, then the world is doomed. If I am to believe the likes of Harry, Biden, Greta and their friends, then the world is doomed to fry in an inferno of global warming. It is a gloomy, miserable and fear filled future, no matter which side of the political divide you are on.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1
Words have become corrupted and their meanings changed and manipulated.
"Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. "John 17:17.
We have heard much about the number 17 for those who are followers of Q. To those of you who have yet to know about the Q movement, it began at the birth of the Trump rise to the prominance. The Q movement began on 4Chan in October 2017. It started with a mysterious poster named “Q.” That person claimed to be a government agent with ultra top-secret information. That person also said that he or she was on a mission to take down the so-called “deep state.”
I watched the Lin Wood and Sidney Powell " press conference " today and I felt like I was at a revival meeting. I am in my latter years and it took me back to my childhood when I went to Methodist Rallies and it was nothing short of amazing.
I heard the word of God and the power and the passion and the joy and the outrage and the raw emotion that evokes what is in our hearts.
I heard TRUTH. But something happened at that rally and it has come full circle today.
Phar Lap was probably the greatest race horse in Australian history. A horse that led Australia through difficult times during the Depression.
This horse, this amazing animal, united Australia in dark days and united Australians through hope and a bet that strength of character would triumph.
After all, Phar Lap loved to win. And, right now, we need a winner.
These days, it seems that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Morrison has bungled the Brereton Report; America is in meltdown; China is smelling the blood of it's foes and the wolves are circling the injured prey that is our Civilisation.
So much is collapsing at present that it is hard to know where to start. Brush fires are becoming infernos and pathways to safety are closing before our eyes. So all I can do is to write from the perspective of a besieged and shocked observer and ponder how the hell this will all end.

When the Law Enforcers defy the Law Makers, the Laws and the People they are sworn to protect, one has to wonder whether we have got to the stage that the great Abraham Lincoln found himself in, back in 1861.
When Abraham Lincoln became President on March 4, 1861, the Civil War was only a month away. In his First Inaugural Address, President Lincoln was faced with a massive problem. Seven States had seceded from the Union and things were a tinder box of turmoil. He was faced with a decision that few Presidents have ever encountered: the potential destruction of his UNITED States of America.

Back in 1878, a landmark decision was handed down by the United States Supreme Court in the case of The United States versus Throckmorton.
In a nutshell, it was ruled that if fraud was used to defeat the ends of justice; then the party aggrieved by the fraud automatically wins the support of the law.
Vitiate means to " spoil or make useless. " To impair the quality of, corrupt, debase, contaminate.
