There is a thunderstorm rolling in. The rumble is in the distance, but it is nonetheless on its way. There is a threat of rain and I keep looking out the window to see what will happen. Do I shut my windows and doors before it hits? Or do I let the breeze come in and enjoy the air that is blowing in from the storm that is brewing? Yet the thunder rolls and becomes louder and I wonder how long I should wait before “ shutting up shop. “
The lightning is just a flash of light on the horizon and the rain merely a scatter. But the storm is coming. Am I prepared?
I can feel the tension in the air and it makes me wonder if I am about to get a downpour. Am I seeing the start of a storm that no window or door, no fence or lock can resist? I feel that a storm is upon us and it is gathering strength.

In August 2011, I participated in a brainstorming session held at Liberty University together with a number of conservative leaders, all of whom had been on the front lines of confronting LGBTQ activism.
As we discussed the impact of this activism on the nation, we asked ourselves what words we could find to help awaken the national conscience. What slogan or saying would capture our concerns and would appeal to the masses? One phrase we agreed on was: “Stop sexualizing our children!”

It was a year ago today since I lost my much loved Calico Lady. My cat, who shared so much with me during her life.
As most of you know, we are a sentimental bunch here at Patriotrealm and I am probably one of the most sentimental of all.
As the moment approaches, I want to reach out to all the animal lovers out there and celebrate the love they give us and the love they gave.
In these sad and troubled times, their dedication, tolerance, and love sometimes keep us going. I wrote this a year ago and my emotions are just as strong as they were back then.
We seem to have an outbreak of mental health issues throughout the world. Yelling “allah hu akbar “ is not terrorism, apparently it is a mental health issue.
People murdering others, massacres carried out – mental health issues.
There are people whose brains have been addled by drugs and they have mental health issues. Addled by religious zealous or fanatical indoctrination.

The demolition of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines in the Baltic Sea is one of the most outrageous and evil acts of terrorism and sabotage in the history of our world. Now that the sabotage has been confirmed by numerous nations, the blame game has begun as everyone is wondering, “Who did it?”
Resident Joe Biden, Russophobic State Department official Victoria Nuland and GOP Senator Ron Johnson are all on the record demanding the Nord Stream pipelines be taken out, implying they will use any means necessary to achieve that outcome.
Europe’s economy, currencies and industries are in free fall, plunging toward “economic wasteland” status that’s less than a year away if natural gas supplies from Russia aren’t quickly restored.
That’s the conclusion of numerous experts who have spoken to Natural News over the last two weeks, including war correspondent Michael Yon, Finnish economist Tuomas Malinen, global agricultural trends researcher David Dubyne, and Italian-American author Leo Zagami.
Back in the 1990's I wrote this story. Computer graphics were in their infancy.
The strange thing is that the story I told is not an infantile or an old tale.
It is one that will be told through the generations when, hopefully, we defended our anthill and got rid of the soldier ants that seek to take our homes and our livelihoods.
I chose to keep the original images. Only the last image has changed. Enjoy.
Aesop's Fables, or the Aesopica, is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave in Ancient Greece. He was also a storyteller and lived around 600 BC.
They always had a moral to the story, something which exists to this day: telling a tale to deliver a message.
How times change. I found this old post from 2019 and realised that the world is now reaping the reward of an old fable that has been forgotten.

Joe Biden, President of The Disunited States of America has gone past being an embarrassment. He is now actually a laughing stock and a danger to the country and the world as a whole.
As his presidency wanders aimlessly through the fog of advanced dementia, we all watch in horror and perverse amusement as he goes from one disastrous public performance to another.
In fact he is so far gone, I wonder if he is setting up a snack plate and making room for cheese that comes from the moon. It would not surprise me.
This is such a cliche, yet today, it is more true than ever before. I have been asking myself a lot these days " why do our governments and media want to divide us? ". All I can think of is that through division we will fall into disarray and become weak. What astonishes me is how easy it has been for " them " to carry out their mission. But I keep coming back to our old mates " who " , " what " "where " "when " and most importantly " why "
