What is taking place in the Good Ole USA is also taking place here in Australia. Our politicians are enemies of the citizens as well. One can tell there is an election next year here in Australia from all the hot air blowing out of Canberra. Enough of that, the following concerns Biden’s Democrats and their anti-Americanism.
The key questions regarding this massive political shift are: Is the surge to the left just cyclical? What is behind the rapid Demo descent into the socialist authoritarian abyss? Is it the greatest threat we face under Biden?
Looking back two presidential administrations, Barack Obama’s socialists seeded this descent after his victory over “moderate Republican” John McCain in 2008. Predictably, within two years of his taking office, there was a midterm Republican wave, which formed a temporary seawall against the erosion of American Liberty.
In 2012, Republicans ran a “moderate Republican” again and, predictably, Mitt Romney was defeated by Obama. As was the case in 2010, that resulted in a 2014 midterm Republican wave, further growing the House Republican majority and restoring Senate Republican control.
But this midterm congressional cycle does not imply a balancing of political scales, and if Republicans take back the House and Senate in 2022, that will not correct the current socialist surge. Democrat presidents and their congressional lap dogs take 10 steps to the left and Republican midterm majorities either hold the line or move it back to the right a few steps. The net result is that there has been a significant central government shift toward statist authoritarianism since the 1992 election of Bill Clinton, who defeated another “moderate Republican,” George H.W. Bush.
While Presidents Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump significantly moved the political needle in the right direction toward constitutional Liberty, Republican congressional majorities since Reagan have not succeeded in holding that line against Democrat presidents.
In 2016, Trump narrowly defeated Obama’s heir apparent, Hillary Clinton, albeit not winning the popular vote. Apparently that year, Obama’s VP, Joe Biden, was too old and frail for consideration as a serious contender, and it was understood by Democrats to be “Hillary’s turn.”
He advanced conservative nominees to the Supreme Court. He cut taxes and regulations in order to unleash historic economic growth, providing the lowest unemployment for Black and Hispanic Americans in decades. Inflation and interest rates were low while GDP growth was surging. He rebuilt our military. Russia, Iran, China, and North Korea understood that Trump meant what he said, and they conducted themselves accordingly. Trump wiped out ISIS, and Afghanistan was on its way to sustainable albeit tenuous stability, the Taliban understanding full well that Trump would squash them like roaches if they stepped out of line. He took enormous steps to void unfair trade practices, particularly with China. After years of southern border security lip service from previous presidents, Trump took the most dramatic measures to curb illegal immigration of any president in recent history, including moving forward on border walls and other security measures. He moved the nation toward energy independence, lowering energy costs for all Americans. He supported law and order, which accounted for the almost universal support he received from law enforcement rank and file nationwide.
Having severely weakened Trump’s prospects for reelection, the Demos were able to field what would have otherwise been a laughable ticket. The feckless non compos mentis Joe Biden, running with a younger female VP candidate, Kamala Harris, should have been as handily dispatched as McCain running with his younger female VP candidate, Sarah Palin. But Obama had the benefit of Senate Demos setting up the 2008 financial crisis, which sealed the deal for his election, much as Biden had the benefit of the aforementioned “perfect storm” in order to limit Trump to one term.
I have characterized Biden as a “political dead man walking,” long past his cognitive expiration date. He has been so sequestered in his Beltway bubble for the last 50 years that he doesn’t give a damn about the American people he pretends to represent. All Biden and his cadre of socialist puppeteers care about is power, unbridled power, and everything they have done over the last 10 months has been with the sole objective of accumulating power, regardless of how they packaged that objective to conceal it.
It is clear that Biden’s socialists handlers behind the curtain saw him as a much more manageable puppet than lunatic Bernie Sanders.
After Biden’s “win,” the 50/50 split in the Senate, with Harris serving as the tiebreaker, gave Demos Senate control, and they maintained a narrow margin in the House. Not since Herbert Hoover lost to Franklin Roosevelt in 1933 has a Republican presidential loss left the White House, Senate, and House of Representatives under Democrat control.
Given that ability to dictate the agenda, the Biden/Harris regime would like to shutter our nation in the darkness of socialist oppression under their limitless statist power, and they have moved as rapidly as possible in that direction while they can.
They will not ultimately succeed, and though they think they are bulletproof, they are not. But the danger of their authoritarian surge can’t be discounted as something that will be corrected in 2022, much less 2024, especially if the GOP fails to embrace a formula that goes beyond the Electoral College calculation and captures a majority of American votes.
What is behind the surge toward socialist authoritarianism?
As demonstrated by the 2010 and 2014 midterm elections, Democrats know that their guaranteed window to accumulate power is two years — until the 2022 midterm elections. The recent Demo losses in Virginia ramped up their sense of urgency. Biden’s most recent approval ratings, even when polled by Leftmedia outlets, are abysmal.
As political observer Rich Lowry notes in “Biden’s Incredibly Shrinking Presidency”: “A Washington Post poll over the weekend suggested that his presidency is, for now, a smoking political crater. It had him at a 41% approval rating, despite the passage of his long-sought infrastructure bill that was supposed to buoy him and his party. Even more striking, the survey found that Republicans lead Democrats on the generic congressional ballot by 10 points, 51% to 41%, an unprecedentedly strong showing for the GOP that forecasts an earthquake, tsunami, and maybe a few more natural disasters for Democrats come next fall.”
But I’m not a gambler, and I’ve been around political cycles long enough to know that you don’t count your chickens ‘till they hatch.
Biden’s brazen disregard for the impact of his socialist handlers’ policies is astounding, the direct result of his one-term “dead man walking” status. Despite reports to the contrary, Biden will not run for reelection in 2024, which makes him a perilous threat to Liberty. He is already the oldest president in history and will turn 79 this week. (Did you get your party invitation?) For context, the average age of presidents entering office is 55. For comparison, President Reagan was 77 at the end of his second term.
Clearly, the socialist Demos know there is no time to waste, and they have wasted no time. The rapid accumulation of central government power under Biden is unprecedented, and everything this administration is doing is all about power, as is manifest in a quick survey of his most consequential policies.
Biden’s “pandemic” measures are, first and foremost, about power. His handlers are using COVID as fodder to justify his draconian vaxxing mandates and planned vax passport requirements to imprint the power of the state over the people. Despite the Fifth Circuit Court, in a unanimous panel decision, having chastised the administration for using mandates as “a one-size-fits-all sledgehammer,” don’t expect the leftists to back down.
In addition to asserting central government power, they know their statist mandate is a mechanism to expel large numbers of young healthy conservatives who reject the mandates from our military and military contractor ranks. The same is true across the spectrum of all federal employees.
Biden’s reckless open-border policy is, first and foremost, all about central government power — a crass calculation to increase the ranks of Democrat voters regardless of the cost and consequence of such immigration. With now more than two million illegal immigrants having been allowed a free pass into our nation, last month proved to be the worst October for illegal immigration in our nation’s history.
The economy is stagnant as inflation is roaring back — shades of Jimmy Carter’s “stagflation.” Our nation went from a position of great world strength under Trump to one of Biden’s weakness and appeasement. “Many people remain unsettled about the economy,” said Biden recently, “and we all know why.” Indeed we do: Joe Biden.
Of course, the Biden administration’s so-called “climate change” policies are, first and foremost, all about central government power over the economy and production. Biden slept through the recent Glasgow climate summit, but it was merely a promo for his just-passed “green infrastructure” bill’s pathway to power in the name of “climate control.”
And the final question I asked above: Is the leftist agenda the greatest threat we face under the Biden regime?
Actually, no.
What worries me most about Biden and his handlers is not all the vectors of their domestic power accumulation agenda; it is his administration’s unprecedented ineptitude regarding our national security — undermining everything Trump did to restore it. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley, and Secretary of State Tony Blinken in concert with Biden. What a dangerous and deadly clown show.
Case in point: Recently, Biden’s Pentagon spokesman, John Kirby, was asked, “Which is a bigger threat, the climate or China?” He responded: “Both are equally important. Both are challenges that the [SecDef] wants the senior leadership at the Pentagon to be focused on, as well as many others, too.”
Given Biden’s horrendous surrender and retreat from Afghanistan, Kirby’s answer on China should be very disconcerting. Biden’s foreign policy nescience, and that of his administration, is more dangerous than all his statist domestic policies combined, particularly as it pertains to the Red China threat.
Recall that Barack Obama’s former Defense Secretary and CIA Director Robert Gates famously wrote in 2014 that Biden “has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.” Clearly, Biden has accelerated his penchant for being wrong in his fifth decade in DC.
Two days ago, Biden spent more than three hours in a virtual confab with Chinese dictator Xi Jinping.
While details of that call are sketchy, insiders report that Xi unwaveringly asserted his authority and power, signaling his disregard for Biden, as made clear by China’s rapid military advances in recent months, and overt aggression with Taiwan. We know that Biden sent conflicting messages regarding Taiwan and our “One China” policy.
Humorously, Xi referred to ChiCom Joe as his “old friend,” which triggered his media spinners to assure the nation they are not actually old friends.
I can assure you that none of those overtures would have occurred with Trump. If this conference was intended to “reset relations with China,” it worked.
My reason for concern regarding China is that, according to my sources, there is something serious brewing under the waters of the Taiwan Strait.
For context, back in 1979, when Deng Xiaoping rejected Maoism and embraced capitalism under the seemingly contradictory central control of his communist dictatorship, he unleashed what would become an economic giant, now the second-largest economy on the planet after the United States. Today, that economy remains under the communist authoritarian control of Xi.
The Chinese threat to Taiwan is far more dangerous than the Russian threat at the Ukraine border under Vladimir Putin, and frankly I believe Russia’s actions may be predicated on anticipation of Chinese action against Taiwan. Laughably, Tony Blinken warned Putin that Russia should not “make the serious mistake of attempting to rehash what it undertook back in 2014, when it amassed forces along the border, crossed into sovereign Ukrainian territory.” You know, when Putin could act without concern that the Obama/Biden regime would respond accordingly.
Making China even more dangerous is the potential GDP slowdown it now faces, which means if its people become increasingly discontent, it will have to rally nationalist support. What better way to do that than retake Taiwan?
China knows it has nothing to fear from Biden. Brace yourself, America. Biden’s domestic policies are not the greatest threat to our nation. And you can be sure that Biden and his ilk will use any direct confrontation with China to do what they do best: Accumulate central government power.’https://patriotpost.us/alexander/84288-ascent-of-the-socialist-democrat-authoritarians-2021-11-17
These are the same people that made all the rules for the China virus to keep us safe and alive! Remember the man’s face below for he is out to legally murder all those who want government approved killing.
Now, ‘After a marathon debate that ran all of Thursday and ended at nearly midnight, the bill to legalise voluntary assisted dying has failed to pass the New South Wales’ Upper House by a single vote.
With 19 voting in support but 20 against, the result came down to the wire.
Nationals MP Trevor Khan is confident the bill will eventually pass in the future.(AAP: Mick Tsikas)
MPs were given a conscience vote on the legislation, introduced by Nationals MP Trevor Khan, which would allow terminally ill patients over the age of 25 to end their own lives with the help of doctors.
Mr Khan said last night he was “obviously disappointed” with the vote but pledged to keep pushing for the legislation.
“We had what I think is a reasonable expectation that we’d just get over the line [but] obviously we fell short by one,” he said.
“[But] we’ll continue to talk with the stakeholders, and work out a timing and a campaign.
“It’s clear that there’s a lot of community support for this. It really needs that campaign to continue and we’ll get over the line in due course.
‘Diversity, equity, inclusion; this has been the mantra of United Airlines. United pilots Stephanie and Kyle Atteberry thought the company meant it.
“United has been great to us,” Kyle, 45, told The Epoch Times. He recalls receiving blankets from the company as gifts when their six children were born. “Our expectations were, United would honor our faith.”
Kyle and wife Stephanie, 40, live in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Their jobs, flying Boeing 767 and 757 aircraft, routinely took them around the world until Oct. 1, the last day United allowed them to fly.
The couple is not getting the COVID-19 vaccine. They are among the 2,000 United employees who requested reasonable accommodations through medical or religious exemptions from the vaccine mandate. As an accommodation, United placed them on unpaid leave indefinitely. The 2,000 employees are part of Airline Employees 4 Health Freedom, a group legally challenging being placed on unpaid leave.
“They’ve already shown us what a reasonable accommodation looks like, because we’ve been doing it for a year and a half,” Kyle said. “Now they say I’m unsafe to come to work?”
While President Joe Biden announced in September mandatory vaccines for certain workers, United was already signaling in May that it was moving to a mandatory vaccine program.
In May, the company sent employees a letter with an incentive offer: pay for 13 hours of flight time, amounting to $2,600, for those who got vaccinated. And there was a penalty: those who did not get the shot would not be able to fly to as many international destinations. That means less work available for the unvaccinated. From there, the list of countries unvaccinated pilots could not fly to grew, until Germany was the only international place where the Atteberrys could fly.
Now they are both on unpaid leave.
“I feel betrayed by the airline that says it is all about love and respect, and yet here we are being sidelined. And seeing other airlines accommodating their employees—it’s frustrating,” Kyle said.
The stress of working through the situation has loomed over them for months.
Hebrews 10:24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
‘Online church is now here as a part of the outreach of churches around the world, but California megachurch pastor John MacArthur is not one who is a fan of it.
MacArthur, the senior pastor at Grace Community Church in Greater Los Angeles, is the kind of pastor who speaks his mind. He doesn’t feel the need to provide answers that please the general Christian community. So when the discussion came to church, he didn’t mince his words.
While most churches closed their doors during Covid last year, MacArthur risked prison time by keeping his open.
John MacArthur says by definition, an online church service “cannot fulfill the New Testament’s commands for Christians”. During a recent Question and Answer session, Macarthur stated: “There’s nothing about that (online church) that fulfills the biblical definition of coming together, stimulating one another in love and good works. Singing, speaking to yourselves in Psalms [and] spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord, sitting under the Word of God, praying together, being led by those who preach the Word and open the Scripture.
“The definition of a church is crystal clear in the New Testament. We see the picture of it. They came together on the first day of the week. They worshipped the Lord. They prayed. It was fellowship, and it was the breaking of bread and the Lord’s Supper. So the church is defined clearly. And it’s the communion of the saints. It’s fellowship, it’s partnership.
“Zoom church is not Church. It’s not Church. It is watching TV. There’s nothing about that that fulfils the biblical definition of coming together, stimulating one another to love and good works, coming together.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. (Romans 1:28)
‘The apostle Paul provides a chilling analysis of the process by which the human mind progresses through rejection of the evidence of God’s existence to ultimately worshiping the creature more than the Creator and finding pleasure only among those of like mind.
God has displayed His “eternal power and Godhead” since the creation of the world (Romans 1:20). Those who reject that clear physical evidence are “without excuse” since they do know God but will not recognize His existence and engage in such destructive thinking that “their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things” (Romans 1:21-23).
That foolish behavior so shifts their intellect that they serve “the creature more than the Creator” and wind up so distorting their lifestyle that they become unable to tell what gender God made them (Romans 1:24-28). Once that kind of behavior is sanctioned, their emotions become consumed with hatred of God and all things good, winding up inventing “evil things” and living within a godless world (Romans 1:29-31).
Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health’s WayOut program is pleased to hold a second Planet GAGA session this month for your primary school aged transgender, gender diverse and non-binary young people.
When: Saturday 20 November 10am – 12pm
Where: Bug-a-lugs Playcentre, 3 Hoyle Ct, Kyneton
This is a free event.
A parent/carer is encouraged to stay for Planet GAGA. WayOut is just waiting to hear back from the venue as to their requirements re: vaccination status of accompanying adults.
The accompanying flyer advertises “gender affirming games” at the Bug-a-lugs indoor play centre.
Gender affirmation is an Orwellian expression that means exactly the opposite of what it proclaims. Gender affirmation is about denying biological sex and reinforcing a fantasy that can only be attained via appropriation.
Gender affirmation is a trendy expression to encourage people to wear costumes, engage in a daily pill popping/drug-taking regime, and can eventually lead to the surgical mutilation of perfectly healthy body parts.
It’s all about denying scientific reality and pretending to be something you never can be. It is not affirmation, but rather denial and rejection of self.
This activity is aimed at 6-11yr olds who regularly engage in imaginative play, crucial to their development. The organisations funding this event, including the Victorian government, are attempting to assert that imagination, feelings and appropriation equal reality.
The Victorian government has even passed laws to penalise anyone who objects to this style of appropriation. It is inexcusable to subject children to such lies and deception.
‘There is not a single organization that trans activists do not intend to colonize. In 2017, the Boy Scouts changed their century-old policy on admission and decided to permit entrance based on “gender identity,” allowing biological girls identifying as boys to enroll. This came two years after the Girl Scouts announced that they would be accepting “transgender girls” — biological boys — to join and participate as females. The Girl Guides also stated that they would permit biological boys identifying as girls to join, and even share showers, changing rooms, and sleeping quarters with girls. One of Robert Conquest’s three rules of politics is simple: Any organization not explicitly and constitutionally right wing will sooner or later become left wing. This has proven true time and again, as the transgender juggernaut conforms institutions according to the new dogmas and centuries-old organizations transform their views of gender overnight. As such, Christians and others seeking alternatives to these radicalized organizations are increasingly being forced to build their own alternatives outside the mainstream. One example is American Heritage Girls, a Christian alternative to the Girl Scouts founded in 1995 by parents seeking a values-driven organization for their daughters. In a press release, founder and executive director Patti Garibay laid out the position of AHG succinctly: “Scripture is clear: There is a difference between male and female, and it is worth celebrating. Scripture defines the true nature of a woman: relational, nurturing, vulnerable, with a love for beauty and a desire to respond. God-given femininity is a gift that, when freely accepted, will bless a woman throughout her life.” “We believe that biblical femininity is the core essence of every woman, purposefully designed by God,” she went on. “He has created men and women differently on purpose. Today, at a time when some attempt to put masculinity and femininity on a spectrum, AHG proudly stands up for God-anointed, God-driven femininity.” “For centuries, the beauty of God-given femininity has been under attack, its definition debated, its behavior contested. Secular humanism has attempted to destroy the beautiful model of femininity and transform it into an equal model to masculinity. Today, it has gone one step further to claim an embrace of non-binary sexual identity. With all this confusion in our society, it is no wonder that this debate has filtered down to our youngest members: our children.” All of that, needless to say, is heresy to trans activists and their cultural enforcers, but American Heritage Girls is doing what few other organizations are: Staking out their position in clear and unambiguous terms.’https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=5063
‘Evolutionary scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing and several universities in the United States, Italy, and Japan have recently claimed the Earth’s axis tilted about 12 degrees in the Late Cretaceous.1 Geological research at ICR shows that the rocks identified as Cretaceous were deposited about the high water point of the Flood, on Day 150.2 While it is possible the Earth tilted significantly during the Flood year, the evidence for such an event remains extremely ambiguous.
Ever since scientists first started collecting paleomagnetic data that indicated the magnetic poles may have wandered, there has been debate whether or not the poles really moved, or just the rocks themselves moved. The rocks can move because of tectonic plate motion. In addition, the magnetic field of the Earth can also change, further complicating matters and making a unique solution more difficult. There is strong evidence that the magnetic field reversed many times during the Flood year.
Let’s step back a little first. What is paleomagnetic data? It is the remnant magnetic signal preserved in the rocks that tells scientists about the past magnetic field orientation of the Earth. It becomes locked in the rocks at the time of their formation—like a ship stuck in ice. Many rocks contain magnetite, a highly magnetic mineral. When lavas cool and/or sediments are deposited, tiny magnetite minerals can line up with the orientation of the magnetic field of the Earth like little compasses. If the magnetic field changes direction, the minerals will form or be deposited at a new orientation that reflects that change. Essentially, the rocks are able to record the Earth’s past magnetic directions like a magnetic tape recorder.
This latest study, published in Nature Communications, argues changes in the Earth’s tilt is the sole cause of the shift in magnetic orientation in the limestone rocks in Italy.1 This particular limestone has a magnetic signal due to bacterially formed magnetite, resulting in measurable magnetization directions.1
Co-author Sarah Slotznick, a geobiologist at Dartmouth College explains, “These Italian sedimentary rocks turn out to be special and very reliable because the magnetic minerals are actually fossils of bacteria that formed chains of the mineral magnetite.”3
But can we sort out the cause of the changes in magnetic orientation? And are they only caused by a change in the Earth’s tilt? It is highly unlikely we can know for certain. A change in the tilt of the Earth is only one solution. A shift in Earth’s internal magnetic field can give the same global result without tilting outer rocks of the Earth at all. Measuring the paleomagnetic signal in rocks gives us an answer, but it doesn’t tell us the path taken to arrive at that answer.
We encountered this same issue in a paper we published on Pangaea vs. Rodinia.4 We couldn’t determine if the Earth’s surface physically rotated 110 degrees (the tilt) early in the Flood, or if the internal magnetic field of the Earth simply shifted by 110 degrees. Either result gives the same signal in the rocks. Rocks do not record the root cause. In our paper, we concluded it was most likely that the magnetic field shifted direction, not the tilt of the Earth.3 However, we had other independent data (plant fossils that do not grow at high latitudes) to support our conclusion.3
The authors of the present study offered no other kind of data (like fossils) to support their conclusion that the Earth tilted 12 degrees. Paleomagnetic data is too ambiguous without some other type of independent check. Did the Earth tilt during the catastrophic upheaval of the global Flood? Do these rocks in Italy show a tilt occurred? Maybe. Only God knows what actually happened. But we have the Words of Jesus recoded in our Bible. We can be sure there was a global Flood just 4400 years ago that completely changed the surface of our planet, leaving a discernable record in the rocks.2
