It is beyond embarrassing how they wheel Joe Biden out to speak to his imaginary friends.
The Hunter Biden laptop is a fact, no matter which way the media try to spin it. The whole Russian propaganda rubbish would be laughable if it wasn't so serious.
Like Covid, the fact checkers are out of lies and those of us who still have functioning brain cells know it.

If you’ve been following the news about Ukraine but still don’t understand that it’s the single most aggressively narrative managed and psyop-intensive war in human history, there is a 100 percent chance you believe false things about what’s happening there.
It’s not a question of if the US played a role in Imran Khan’s removal but how and to what extent. ❖ We’re about to see a judge sign off on Julian Assange’s extradition to the United States for exposing the empire’s war crimes while that same empire blasts us all in the face with an unprecedented war propaganda campaign about rescuing Ukraine’s freedom and democracy.

This morning I went outside to sit in the sunshine and have a morning cup of tea. The manager of my building complex was mowing the lawn and the smell of the freshly mown grass was in the morning air. Most of us know that smell so well and it triggers memories of childhoods and happy days.

When Ovalbek Turdakun opens his eyes on Easter morning, nothing will feel familiar. Six thousand miles away from the life they knew, he and his family will be celebrating the Resurrection in safety — a luxury that few survivors of the Xinjiang camps will ever know. Touching down on American soil late Friday night, Ovalbek, his wife, and 12-year-old son exhaled for the first time in four years — the horrors of China finally behind them. This Sunday, they’ll sit in church pews without fear, openly worshipping the God who delivered them to freedom.

As we trudge wearily and warily on through 2022, I wonder how much further we can trudge before we become bogged down in the mud of the swamp that has become our lives?
As we are rewarded for being good little peasants, so are we told that we are being naughty and, for our own good mind you, we must stay on the straight and narrow and forge on resolutely and trust in the wisdom of our leaders.
Yeah, right.

If you’ve got a gut feeling that your rulers are working to control your perception of the war in Ukraine, it is safe to trust that feeling.
If you feel like there’s been a concerted effort from the most powerful government and media institutions in the western world to manipulate your understanding of what’s going on with this war, it’s because that’s exactly what has been happening.
If you can’t recall ever seeing such intense mass media spin about a war before, it’s because you haven’t.

Many eons ago, in the olden. golden days, we had this thing called free speech. Alas, that Right has become a Privilege. Now, I will hasten to add that free speech is not about freedom to abuse or freedom to ridicule.
It is freedom to debate, discuss and investigate freely.
Since I started this modest blog a few years ago ( before the world went mad ) I have noticed that the freedom to speak is restricted to those who are of the squeaky wheel variety. The vocal minority get all of the traction and action and we 90% get sweet bugger all.
Dr Benny Peiser, who heads the London based Global Warming Policy Foundation (https://www.thegwpf.org/), is visiting Australia and speaking at three major events in Sydney 26 April, Brisbane 27 April and Melbourne 28 April.
With Lord Lawson, Benny Peiser launched the GWPF in 2009 in the run-up to the Copenhagen Climate Summit. It provides a platform for educational research and informed debate on measures to cut greenhouse emissions in an attempt to limit man-made climate change.

The drama playing out in Pakistan is interesting, to say the least. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan has been ousted from power after losing a no-confidence vote in his leadership. However, what makes this interesting is that he has previously said he would not recognize an opposition government. Khan has accused that there has been a US-led conspiracy to overthrow him because of his refusal to stand with Washington on issues against Russia and China.
To all you living out there around the world, here is something to enjoy with your little ones.
In these sad times, it is so important to keep the children's dreams alive.
As someone who speaks with Fairies, I can assure you that the Tooth Fairy is still working, as is the Easter Bunny. Magic happens everywhere and goodness, wonder and delight can be found alive and well throughout the world. All we need do is look to our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, for the joy in the simplicity of delight to be found in such timeless heroes.
All this talk of global food shortages, rising heating bills, war and health problems has made me cast my mind back to people who fought and were prepared to die for us in years gone by.
Men and women who sacrficed with a shrug of the shoulders and a salute to the flag and headed off to FIGHT for freedom.
As Easter and ANZAC Day approach, I wonder how many today realise that how we live as a child will be where we come home to when we pass?
