It is said that a civilisation can be judged by the way it treats its vulnerable. If this is the case, then we are a beyond help, unless we have a major reset in our values and moral compass.
Today I read with dismay and horror the story of an 83 year old woman with dementia who " fell " in an Australian hospital. Well, it must have been one hell of a " fall. "

Make no mistake. President Trump is the People's President. Across the world.
Just as Princess Diana, the People's Princess, gained the love and admiration of the people when she walked through the minefields of Laos all those years ago, President Trump has gained the love and admiration of people for his courage walking back to work after his brush with the Chinese Virus and leftist assasination attempts. He walked, as Princess Di did - with dignity, courage and incredible willpower and determination.
I often wondered how Princess Di , Lady Di, call her what you will - how she did that walk in Laos.
That takes guts.
And President Trump did a Lady Di and stood firm in the face of adversity and fear and he stared down the demons that many of us could not.
That is hero stuff.
I have just seen a video clip of five police arresting an expectant mother on a beach in Melbourne for not wearing a mask. .. failing to provide proof of who she is....... whatever their latest " reason " , the temperature was 30 degrees and people were on the beach, I noticed that others were not wearing a mask but they had to pick on another pregnant lady to be their victim. Old ladies with hip replacements, expectant mothers , the most vulnerable people the police of Victoria can find and they are using their powers to upset and victimise them. Worse still, she appeared to be bleeding and could have miscarried. Did they call an ambulance? No. They arrested her.
I read with dismay some of the comments made on Social Media about President Trump's recent health issue. I believe that now is a good time to share our support and pray for him and his family, his staff and those who have been afflicted by the Chinese Virus.
How many of them know the story of Donald Trump's relationship with the Bible?
Here is the story that most of those nasty people do not know and probably do not even care about anyway.
But for those of us who have a love of this man and the work that he has done for us. I want to share it again.
God Bless him and I am sure I join many of you from around the world in wishing him well and letting him know how much he is loved.
I would love to feel that this small gesture may help him in his journey to wellness - can we get a prayer chain going?

So said Vice President Mike Pence. The real one, not the ex Vice President that Chris Wallace referred to in the debate. Yes, I know that it is a courtesy afforded to ex Vice Presidents, but it seemed strange to me that Wallace referred to PRESIDENT Trump as Mr Trump… but that is what happens these days when it is politically incorrect to be correct. The left can pick and choose when it comes to accuracy.
I was struck by the outrage over a group I had never heard of before “ Proud Boys.”
Apparently it was dreadful that President Trump failed to denounce this group. So I looked them up and checked it out.
I have just spoken with my Mum about my Dad and, over the telephone, and we have enjoyed a trip down memory lane about Old Times.
Dad passed 4 years ago and, as much as he has gone, he is still with us. Everyday.
We both had a drink in our hands, and started to talk about what made my Father the man that Mum misses and I miss so much. We wanted to paint him as a man who we love because he was so kind and decent. After a few more snifters , we decided that our gorgeous man was simply a Man. Yes, a Man.
You know the guy: the one who is no longer wanted, needed, regarded or respected.
After all he is just a man and a mysogonist prick because he is not gender fluid or PC these days.
( photo not my real Dad!)
The old saying " when you pay peanuts you get monkeys " implies that if you pay low wages you will get low quality work. If you pay more, you will get a better bang for your buck.
It is interesting if applied to Politicians. These days, it doesn't seem to ring true as, around the world, we pay huge amounts of money to Politicians and seemingly still get monkeys.
Chris Wallace calling Joe Biden " Vice President" was an indicator of how the debate would go.
The VICE PRESIDENT? He is not the Vice President Mr Wallace!
Chris Wallace has already lost control of the debate Or has he? Has he simply told us that it is a debate between Trump and two opponents? Wallace and Biden. Is he letting Trump know that he faces the Demoncraps and the media... I think he just did.

The world according to MSM is agog and aghast at the " news " that is being reported that President Trump paid just $750 in tax in 2016 and 2017... so I went looking and found this interesting thread on twitter.
Finally something and someone who makes sense.
I don't know about you, but I am getting sick and tired of the media deliberately lying in order to create mischief.
I bring you this thread in the hopes that it makes more sense than the rubbish that the demoncraps and the left wing media are pushing. Make of it what you will.
• If a dude pretends to be a woman, we’re required to pretend with him.
• It’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.
• Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegal Mexicans voting in our elections are good.
• It was cool for Joe Biden to blackmail the president of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.
