You have brightened a dark cloud. Thankyou.

I've made my peace with the fact that I'm never going to be a very popular account. I don't enjoy hurting other people. I don't enjoy pumping out constant rage bait. I DO enjoy bringing light, laughter and talking about God's grace. My reach is down 80% since AI pushes salaciousness above all, and I'm okay with that. Integrity doesn't tend to lead to fame or wealth, but my soul stays intact.

The world is finding out that’s it’s not dudes in dresses anymore. It’s dudes that can drop you at 1000 yards if you cross them!!😎

H/T Fran Porretto The Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation. After much prayer and consideration, they concluded that the squirrels were predestined to be there, and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will. At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a water-slide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves. The squirrels liked the slide and unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim, so twice as many squirrels showed up the following week. The Lutheran church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures. So, they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist church. Two weeks later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the water-slide. The Episcopalians tried a much more unique path by setting out pans of whiskey around their church in an effort to kill the squirrels with alcohol poisoning. They sadly learned how much damage a band of drunk squirrels can do. But the Catholic church came up with a very creative strategy! They baptized all the squirrels and made them members of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter. And not much was heard from the Jewish synagogue. They took the first squirrel and circumcised him. They haven't seen a squirrel since.

From Martin Iles, reposted: Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something. The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned. We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are. Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard. Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share. Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt. For these and other reasons, we are not the same. Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival. If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast. So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily? Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily. The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline. Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60. Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number. Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556. The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000. The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined. The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day. "Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs. How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be. Militarily, we don't offer squat. Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims. Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China. Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words. Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves. And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it. And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors. So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it. And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all. Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time. And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

@realDonaldTrump is the #GreatestWorldLeader in our lifetime.

Just block the haters and betrayer. Their voice will grow smaller.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio just dropped a truth bomb: "If Europe won’t allow us to use the bases we man and fund for their defense when we need them, we ought to close them down and remove our troops from Europe!" We’ve been Europe’s bodyguard, landlord, and ATM for 80 years while they trash America and live rent-free off our military. No more freeloading. Time to pay the rent… or we’re changing the locks.

@isaiahthomas Pray for those that haven’t found Jesus Christ. Jaden Ivey is standing strong in his faith & Jesus sees that. You as a player should also speak up for him so the league can have him playing again.

God Bless and Protect: @realDonaldTrump #WeWillNeverLeaveAnAamericanBehind!

BRILLIANT 🚨 Trump is looking at a plan to privatize airport security and make airports be the ones who pay for it Why should folks in Boise pay for security in NY or LA Taking away the Democrats ability to hold the TSA hostage He also instructed Sec Mullin to pay all DHS employees

The @SenateGOP has not ‘failed’ us. The Senate GOP has BETRAYED us. Big difference.

On behalf of Erin and me, thank you to everyone for the love and support we've received. We both had an unforgettable wedding day, and we'll never forget it. We're humbled and grateful to all. THANK YOU! 🙏🏻🇺🇸🦅🚀

Block and boycott them all!
