Against the backdrop of COVID compliance and the totalitarian efforts of various world leaders, it does not seem coincidental that Australia and New Zealand are two partners within the “five-eyes” intelligence apparatus; Canada, the U.K. and U.S. are the remaining three.  Indeed, an argument can be made that Aussies and Kiwis are the test populations for the objectives of the western alliance.

Recently, a mash-up of statements was released highlighting Comrade Premier Gladys Berejiklian, the leader of the Australian New South Wales Directorate, showcasing the mindset and outlook of regional officials toward any formerly ‘free range’ citizen who might challenge the dictates of the regime.  WATCH:

.

The remix is somewhat tongue in cheek.  However, given the actual rules imposed by the COVID compliance divisions within Australia, the message is not far away from where the ultimate end-game of the governing authority is heading.  Last week, the New South Wales Ministry of COVID Compliance announced locked-down citizens will be permitted to get married again; however, only five persons of ideological alignment will be permitted to witness any formal union or celebration.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

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 †

(Via John Spiropoulos) “The previous reports in my series “The Poison In Our Schools” covered some of the issues involved with Critical Race Theory and curriculum inspired by CRT. These next two reports take a deep dive into what young children actually face in the classroom. These reports get down to the granular level of how they are being indoctrinated with left-wing, anti-white, anti-American ideology.

These reports focus on the English Language Arts curriculum titled “Wit and Wisdom.” It was developed by an organization called “Great Minds.” The basic objective of an English Language Arts curriculum is to improve reading, writing and speaking skills while teaching grammar and vocabulary.

The Williamson County, Tennessee chapter of the Moms for Liberty organization did an extensive review of Wit and Wisdom’s K-5 curriculum. Moms for Liberty read the books and the teacher’s manuals. So did I. And I must compliment Wit and Wisdom. The teaching techniques are state-of-the-art. What’s objectionable is Wit and Wisdom turning its intellectual firepower on defenseless children.”

The first video focuses on two books about Ruby Bridges, a true story about the first black child to go to an all-white school in New Orleans. The year: 1960 – VIDEO One – Direct Rumble Link

.

The second video is titled Separate Is Never Equal, the Mendez Family Fight for Desegregation. It’s another true story but in this case, it’s a Mexican-American family which fights for their daughter to go to the all-white school in California. The year: 1947

A new political ad highlights the outcome of Joe Biden…

Jaime Herrera-Beutler, from Washington state congressional district-03, is one of the DeceptiCons in the House.  Not only did she vote for President Trump’s impeachment, but she also voted to support Nancy Pelosi’s 2022 election effort through the January 6th Committee.   JHB is essentially a vile, self-serving worm of a politician with no redeeming qualities.

Today, President Trump has announced his support for her primary challenger Joe Kent:

“Joe Kent is a retired Green Beret and Gold Star husband running against RINO and incompetent Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler in the 3rd District of the State of Washington. Joe served his country proudly for many years and understands the tremendous cost of America’s wars in the Middle East, and elsewhere. In Congress, Joe will be a warrior for the America First agenda, unlike Jaime Herrera Beutler who voted, despite the facts, against the Republican Party and for the Democrats’ Impeachment Scam.”

“Joe Kent is strong on Crime and the Border, loves our Military and our Vets, and will protect our Second Amendment, which is under siege. I met Joe at Dover Air Force Base on the evening that his wife was being brought back from the Middle East, where she had been killed in combat. It was a very sad moment in Joe’s life, but I was incredibly impressed with him and told him that he should someday run for office—we need his voice and leadership in Washington, D.C. Now he is running, and Joe Kent has my Complete and Total Endorsement!”  ~ President Donald J Trump

After receiving the endorsement, Joe Kent appeared on Bannon’s War Room to discuss.

There is an argument to be made that U.S. policy specifically, perhaps intentionally, culminated in delivering a mechanized national army for the Muslim Brotherhood to use in Afghanistan.   Earlier today, the Taliban held a celebratory parade including U.S. military assets we left for the Afghan army.

A couple of videos below highlight the types of vehicles and weapons now in the hands of Taliban forces, and they are not exclusive to the Kabul area.  Mavlave Abdul Ghafor, the Kandahar Commander of Taliban, congratulated Afghans on “great victory and success”.

.

Whether the Taliban forces have the systems, personnel and training to maintain and operate this equipment in the long-term is unknown.  However, in the interim period they are well prepared to fight an internal civil war against any entity who would challenge their power.

According to the data provided by the U.S. State Department in the last few days, the total number of people evacuated from the Kabul airport was 122,000.  Of those, 6,000 were American citizens (AmCits), and 116,000 were Afghan refugees.

Today the State Department admits the “majority” of the qualified Afghan people who assisted the U.S. during operations in Afghanistan, Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) applicants, did not get evacuated.  That admission begs the question: then who the heck are those 116,000 refugees?

It’s not just some NBC reporter relaying information, there are multiple reports of exactly the same dynamic.   According to the Wall Street Journal, “The U.S. left behind the majority of Afghan interpreters and others who applied for visas to flee Afghanistan, a senior State Department official said on Wednesday, despite frantic efforts to evacuate those at risk of Taliban retribution in the final weeks of the airlift.”

[…] The U.S. still doesn’t have reliable data on who was evacuated, nor for what type of visas they may qualify, the official said, but initial assessments suggested most visa applicants didn’t make it through the crush at the airport. “I would say it’s the majority of them,” the official said. “Just based on anecdotal information about the populations we were able to support.”

The Bureau of Labor Statistics report on August jobs is anticipated Friday. However, the numbers from the private sector ADP payroll review [Data Here] were released today, and the results are far below what was predicted.

According to the ADP payroll review, businesses hired a total of 374,000 workers, compared to the expectation of 600,000+ from the financial media.  The vast majority of jobs gained was in the ‘Service and Hospitality’ sector that added 201,000 jobs.

The total services sector added 329,000 jobs, while the goods-producing sector only gained 45,000 jobs. This result is reflective of an overall drop in consumer spending which has continually been identified in sales data from the past several months.

Consumers are being hit with massive inflation on food, fuel, energy and housing costs. As a result, they have pulled back from spending on durable goods, luxury products and other items now considered ‘non-essential.’

The service and hospitality sector shows job growth from new hires and returning workers as people start to travel, dine in restaurants and engage in other vacation activity.  Simultaneously, those same consumers are spending less on retail purchases. This pattern has been very consistent throughout the summer.
