Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

David Bowie – Changes [Official Lyric Video]
I complied chronologically the release of our three women. I don’t know if anyone else did this, at the end when they meet their families you may want to prepare the tissue. I put it on Rumble since YouTube are closing me again, they must be on Hamas’s side.
Note that the string presence of Hamas and the public support is a wake up call to Israel.

Thank you David. It will be a glorious day when ALL the hostages are home !!
❤️
David, I did get a wonderful experience as the preparations were made to gather and transport these young women to their final destination. I was checking every site on the internet constantly and could get no rest when the names were not being put forth as the designated time for the ceasefire approached. So between 8am and 11:15am Israeli time, I began to feel as if this event would not take place.
So I just happened to be watching a strange occurrence(which was 5 heavy bulldozers pulling into a site and starting to move trash and rubble from the “makeshift road”) blocking all vehicles from movement or passage through unless you were on foot in one of many videos I had on my screen. The cellphones were pulled out taking photos, everyone was acting busy, handshaking happening…and I was thinking that this was very odd just to do street work.
Well lo and behold a donkey pulling a very heavy load appears to be heading in the very direction of what is happening onscreen directly into the camera view. Suddenly as the donkey is halted, three smaller young women dressed in similar outfits as the two older plumper women on the cart, jumped from the cart on the right side and the older two frantically unloaded from the left side trying to catch up to them.
The younger women were guided into an ambulance on the opposite side of the road from where they had disembarked from the cart and off they headed back into the direction they had just came from. Then everyone started disappearing and everything became normal.
At this point, 11:15am Israeli time, news came with a message that the ceasefire was in place and shortly after, Gaza released on newsite the names of the young women that were being released.
I finally was able to close my eyes to get some rest so I could view the release taking place later that afternoon.
Btw, this occurence took place in Gaza City somewhere close to the route the Red Cross vehicles took with the hostages 🙂 And your video let me connect the dots.
Well now you know what I know 😛
Wow!
Where were you watching all of this? Which channel?
I do believe this site is owned by a professional photographer, but does allow members to view alot more video that I have access to, so probably has copyrighted all the material. I am putting timestamps up for you because its actually useless to watch mundane footage.
You can watch the whole video but what I saw are at timestamps provided:
1:04:42 cart appears on the left side street passes thru the bulldozer block to the right side street
1:31:35 returned to normal viewing later
Happy inauguration day Treepers.
Meanwhile there are winter storm watches running along the Gulf Coast from Galveston, TX to Penaicola,FL
I live in Houston.
What we call winter, hardly qualifies.
We need to “cowboy up” with this few days of cold front.

For future reference. List of highest recorded snowfall records in Florida:
Congratulations America on this momentous day
THE SECOND COMING
As the jungle King claims his crown
The rats all scurry out of town,
When evil spirits are exorcised
They shriek and writhe ’till cauterised
They burn their bridges spike the well
On their way to the gates of hell;
The Augean stables must be cleaned
Its why the Big Chief intervened,
There’s no one else could do this task
A Greater power was heard to ask:
‘Please take this burden on your back
Do this for Me till I come back’
Patrick Healy
And may the King continue to have Gods Armor to protect him.
Thank you patrick.
Well said, Patrick. Our Lord saved Trump and Trump saved the world. Seeing the consternation within the hard left tyrants is most satisfying. 🙂
Thank you Garrison and Rah., my beautiful ex fiancé of 56 years ago and I, just watched that outstanding President |Trump inauguration speech.
We both marvelled at his ability to do that off the cuff.
You Americans are truly blessed to have him .
From Wide Awake Media on X
President-elect Trump: “One of the most urgent tasks… is to decisively defeat the climate hysteria hoax.” “The radical left’s fearmongering about climate and our future is… destroying America’s economy, weakening our society, and eviscerating our middle class. It’s really hurting us.” “We have to defeat the climate hoaxsters once and for all.”
So much mischief can be terminated, so much senseless wealth transfer to China can be cut off, ending the Climate Change Hoax would in and of itself be a massive reversal of fortunes for America and the West, the whole danged world would be blessed by a leader who had the courage to crush it and publish it relentlessly.
I have never called it a hoax. I have always called it a scam because it is intended to steal wealth. Like the snake oil salesmen of old, but on a larger more complex scale.
Wealth and Liberty and Life itself have always been it’s targets.
Imagine holding the scammers accountable . . .
Without economic security there is no national security. A fact that every American should learn.
Warm house, warm bed. Good whisky. Seeya on the flipper, rah . . . 🙂
This day above all others so far, I am happy I am retired, so that I can stay here at home and savor this great day and all that it portends.
2 deg. here and dropping. My 3×5 and Appeal to Heaven are at full mast. Too windy to fly me big flag so far, but if that changes, up will go my largest colors.
0 degrees here forecast to -5, but probably warmer indoors overnight than last night … it was windy which is unusual for nights here (covered before but, 50 yo building needs resealing), got down to 60 degrees upstairs last night, currently 66 tonight.
Pioneer spirit MMW.
One of the early 19th c. homes in which I conducted guided tours had notations written on the wall saying on a certain date in January ice had formed inside the house.
I set my upstairs thermostat for 66 that’s plenty cold.
Oh yeah – I need to fly Old Glory from my front porch today!!
Boy Howdy!
The sky is falling fear mongering has got to cease.
At long last may the dark forces of the climate change/global warming scam be defeated. It has been a very long and very expensive haul.
An international preplanned scam/conspiracy robbing the poor to make the rich more rich.
It would be President Trumps finest achievement, his legacy to the WORLD, to defeat this non science of man made global warming.
The parts of Altadena that did not burn were saved by residents with their own hands: ‘I’ve worked all my life for this, and to lose it all in one night? I’m going to fight’

New Orleans may see the most snow it has had in 130 years.
https://x.com/ChrisMartzWX/status/1880985714344570888
NWS forecast is for 4″ of snow for New Orleans. If that comes to pass that will be the most snow that city has received since 1895! Anyway it looks like the “chocolate city” is going to turn white for a short while.
Glad Indiana is on the list.
. 19 states have announced that they will raise flags to full-staff for Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2025. The states that have confirmed this are: – Alabama – Alaska – Arkansas – California – Colorado – Florida – Georgia – Idaho – Indiana – Iowa – Kansas – Kentucky – Louisiana – Missouri – Nebraska – North Dakota – Oklahoma – Tennessee – Texas
Have my 3×5 storm flag at full mast now. Too windy for my big colors. But if that changes my 6×8 will go up to the truck.

VICTORY! Trump has promised to pause all offshore wind leases, which could save the North Atlantic right whale from extinction at the hands of industrial wind energy. It’s incredible to watch Republicans steal the save-the-whales issue from Democrats. Video overview here:

Elon Musk wants to make Europe great again.
I disagree. Help only the East Europeans resisting the tyranny. As for the rest? Being a student of history, I’m tired of the US expending blood and treasure to clean up the messes that the West Europeans make for themselves, over and over and over again.
I say this fully recognizing that Europe is our largest trade partner but believing that our influence and treasure can be better spent on other developing nations to replace the place the idiocracy of western Europe in that role.

[Jamesetta Hawkins]
(1938-2012)
American singer (“Roll With Me”; “At Last”), dies from leukemia at 73
Biography: Jamesetta was the product of a broken home, and found solace in song. First as a member of her church choir, and then bitten by the doo-wop bug.

Biden pardons Fauci and Milley in an effort to guard against potential
revengeJustice by Trumphttps://apnews.com/article/biden-trump-fauci-milley-pardons-january-6-3cba287f89051513fb48d7ae700ae747
liz cheney now too.
Expect more pardons and other chaos before the swearing in ceremony. Hopefully Trump has police to arrest Biden on his way out the door.
Challenge these preemptive pardons to the Supreme court. A presidents power does not extend past his term into the future. None of these people have been charged with or convicted of a crime. So no pardon.
The scumbag does what we expected the scumbag to do!
Yes, but when Fauci’s actions make Hitler look like a piker, and put you in the same crowd as Mao and Stalin it’s a little hard to accept. This is a perversion of our Constitution to use it to pardon one of the world’s biggest mass killers.
I’m giddy with excitement. I liken it to the closing scene from A Christmas Carol, when Alistair Sim as Ebenrzer Scrooge goes completely bonkers with joy!
I want to open my door and shout, “Hey, do you know what day it is?” “It is the first day of a new era under the auspices of Almighty God and His foot soldier, President Donald J Trump!
I will pray for protection give thanks and praise in Adoration hour 11-12 today and again this evening 6-7.
Pax et Bonum
Peace and All Good, good people!
There are so many good Scrooges but I’m with you–Alistair Sim is just awesome. Don’t you love how sweet he is when on the stairs with his housekeeper?
Patriots come in all colors as do traitors.
So pathetic.
Sundance was right again! BREAKING: Joe Biden Pardons Tony Fauci, Loser Mark Milley, and Entire J6 Select Committee of Liars in Final Act Against America
This is an admission of guilt. No need to pardon innocent people.
Hooorahhh!
And that’s one of the many reasons we love the guy.
“It doesn’t rain IN the Army, it rains ON the Army.”
“If it ain’t rainin’, you ain’t trainin’.”
And then there is this when President Trump retrieved a Marine’s headgear and placed it on him.
Trump loves the Military.

https://remodernreview.wordpress.com/2025/01/20/daily-art-fix-the-story-behind-donald-trumps-epic-mar-a-lago-portrait-the-visionary/
I have agonized over whether to post this story today, given its historic celebratory proportions and the joy it is bringing us all. In the end, I decided to honor Leo and even selfishly seek comfort for myself and my broken heart. So please forgive the length and the possible intrusion into an otherwise glorious day.
I met this rather beat up dirty gray ginger kitty 6 or 7 years ago, when he showed up at the always open kitty food station we maintain for just such visitors. He was, of course, wary: and took a circuitous path to the food. Gradually, he became more friendly, began to put some flesh on his bones and even cleaned his coppery fur till it shone.
One day, he showed up on the patio, head swollen and bleeding, walking on 3 legs as he held the other off the ground. I tried to trap him to take him to the emergency vet, but he evaded every attempt. Eventually I left him a bowl of water infused with a large amount of colloidal silver – and prayed. He finally came back 2 days later and was almost completely healed! Hallelujah!
After that, he was my pal: sitting in my lap, rubbing up against my leg. Always though, he went back to the horrible place he lived with people who left him outside in every kind of weather.
Finally, those people moved out in the middle of the night, leaving Leo (as I had named him) and about 15 to 20 other cats to fend for themselves. Most began living in our very large garage. Leo and two of his pals, Zane Grey, and Spats, were friendlies and were incorporated into our crew. We trapped almost all the cats (and their kittens), had them spayed and neutered, and brought them back.
Leo became Bad Bad Leo after my Aspy grandson heard Bad Bad Leroy Brown on the radio – and it stuck.
Yesterday afternoon, Lloyd went out to bring Bad Bad in for the night. He was on his chair on the patio – his sunny spot. He looked as though he were sleeping peacefully – but, he was gone. He had slept on my feet with his buddy, Ozzie the night before, eaten his breakfast with gusto that morning and even kissed my face.
I can’t decide if my heart is made of lead or completely empty – or is gone with him for now.
I am sorry if this has burdened anyone unnecessarily – but, if you have a moment during today’s celebrations, please say a prayer for a very fine, loyal, brave, loving kitty named Bad Bad.
Sorry-I double posted.
Soazburrolady: Bad Bad accomplished what he was put on G-d’s earth to do, and did it well.
Thank you billrla. ❤️
I see Love in his eyes. Thank you for rescuing this brave cat, Leo. AND his friends too.
Please allow yourself to grieve for Leo.
I believe that we will see and enjoy our beloved pets in Heaven.
Take care.
Many thanks, Sue ❤️
I’m so sorry to learn of Leo’s passing. He passed in exactly the way we all hope to pass, in our favorite chair with the sun shining on us while we nap. May our Lord cover you and Lloyd with His great comfort. Love and hugs to you!
Thank you Gramadeb. That is a comforting thought. ❤️ 🫂

Whatever happens to my family, know this: No pardons were offered or discussed. I cannot begin to describe the level of betrayal and hurt I feel.
Just learned this which was one topic in a recent documentary.
How a girl’s ‘death mask’ from the 1800s became the face of CPR dolls
A drowned woman became “the most kissed girl in the world” after a model of her face was used to design a CPR dummy.
December 16, 2020
https://www.livescience.com/cpr-doll-resusci-annie-face.html
A new paper in the Christmas issue of The BMJ — a special edition of the medical journal that can include lighthearted or outside-of-the-box research — tells how the nameless corpse became a CPR manikin and earned the title of “the most kissed girl in the world.”
“Every year we have to carry out mandatory CPR training which utilizes these mannequins,” Dr. Stephanie Loke, co-author of the feature and a dental trainee at Liverpool University Dental Hospital, in Liverpool, U.K., told Live Science in an email. She and her co-author Dr. Sarah McKernon, also of the university’s School of Dentistry, “simply wondered who the face was!” she added.
The pathologist who performed her autopsy was so taken with her serene expression that he had a model maker create a plaster “death mask” of her face. The mask was replicated and sold. In fact, the Lorenzi model makers, who, according to the paper authors made the original death mask, still sell copies of it today under the title “Noyée [Drowned Woman] de la Seine.”
In the late 1950s, when medical students were just starting to learn and practice CPR, Archer Gordon, a member of the American Heart Association”s CPR Committee, realized that a CPR dummy could save medical students from the unnecessary pain and potential rib damage of practicing CPR on each other. To manufacture such a thing, he and a Norwegian colleague sought the help of Norwegian toymaker Åsmund Laerdal.
It turned out, Laerdal had seen a reproduction of “L’Inconnue de la Seine” on the wall of a relative’s house, and he decided to give the CPR manikin the same face. Thus, in 1960, when the Laerdal company built the first CPR manikins, “L’Inconnue de la Seine” became “Resusci Annie,” the CPR dummy, or Resusci Anne, as Laerdal refers to the doll on its website.
Winston: Laerdal, a global company, is a leading maker of medical mannikins and anatomical models.
While waiting the remaining 29 minutes…all y’all have got to watch this one….
Good one.
