@craigkellyAFEE Jimbo creates the problem with mass migration, then uses the problem to justify high immigration. He does the same with the overwhelmed health care system, which apparently needs immigrant health workers.

@DrCraigEmerson She said Australia is multiracial but monocultural.
I know they may be big words but try to understand them and stop misrepresenting what Pauline Hanson said.
You are free to disagree but comment accurately on the substance of her argument rather than creating a strawman.

In 458 BC, Rome was on the brink of collapse.

An invading army had trapped the Roman consul and his legion in a mountain pass. Panic spread through the city. The Senate did the only thing they could think of:

They sent messengers to find a 60-year-old farmer plowing his field.

His name was Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus. He had once been a senator, then lost his fortune paying his son's bail. Now he worked his own four-acre plot just to feed his family.

When the Senate's envoys arrived, they found him sweating behind a plow. They asked him to put on his toga so they could deliver an official message.

The message: Rome was making him dictator. Absolute power. Total command of the army. No checks. No oversight. No term limit.

He accepted.

Within 16 days, Cincinnatus had raised an army, marched out, surrounded the enemy, and forced their surrender. The republic was saved.

He had legal authority to rule for six months. He could have stayed. He could have expanded his power. He could have done what every other ruler in human history did when handed unlimited control.

Instead, he resigned on day 16.

He took off the toga, walked back to his farm, and finished plowing the field he'd left half-done.

Twenty years later, when Rome faced another crisis, they called him back. He was 80 years old. He took command, crushed the conspiracy, and resigned again, this time after just 21 days.

He died poor. On his farm.

2,200 years later, when George Washington was offered a kingship after winning the American Revolution, he refused and went home to Mount Vernon. The reason he was hailed as "the American Cincinnatus" is because Europeans literally could not believe a man who had won would willingly give up power.

King George III, on hearing Washington would resign rather than rule, said: "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world."

The lesson isn't that Cincinnatus was humble.

The lesson is that for most of human history, the people most qualified to lead were the ones who didn't want to. And the moment a society starts rewarding those who chase power instead of those who flee from it is the moment the republic begins to die.

Cincinnati, Ohio is named after him.

Most people who live there have no idea why.

[Craig Kelly:🇦🇺Foundation for Economic Education @craigkellyAFEE]

"Welcome to Country" may have its place in some limited circumstances, but it has NO place whatsoever at Anzac Day Dawn services.

While the politically correct love to shriek that it’s “disrespectful” to “interrupt” a Dawn Service, the real disrespect and vile interruption is their arrogant hijacking of this traditional ceremony — ramming a "Welcome to Country" down everyone’s throat right from the very start.

The Cenotaph at Martin Place is a sacred site that belongs to ALL Australians — not some stage for woke, divisive virtue-signalling and pushing political agendas.

“Welcoming” returned servicemen and the families of those who made the ultimate sacrifice to the land that they fought for is not just insulting, it’s offensive.

The booing is a raw, natural response to the woke activists who have shamelessly overstepped the mark by hijacking Anzac Day Dawn Services to shove their political correctness down the nation’s throat.

Anzac Day services exist to unite the nation in solemn remembrance, not to be hijacked for leftist agendas.

This divisive "Welcome to Country" fad — recently forced upon traditional Anzac Day Services — must be scrapped immediately.

Do you agree ?

@DrewPavlou take note. These alleged crimes did not occur in the 'fog of war'. The evidence supports the allegation these crimes were premeditated and calculated.

[PastorMarty @Padremarty1]

Because after five years of investigation there are alleged war crimes.
The fact is, that accountability protects the innocent, deters atrocities, and preserves the moral legitimacy of our ADF.
Any nation that excuses the murder of unarmed civilians or prisoners risks becoming what it fights against.
To 'do justly' is what separates warriors from war criminals.

I am a Christian. Christians are renewed and sanctified. We want to do the right thing because it pleases God and glorifies his name.
Fear of punishment may restrain evil but it is not the motivation of a Christian.

[Alexandra Marshall @ellymelly]

Christians fear God will punish them for scamming their neighbours or stealing from the state.

This created a high trust society in the West that eventually transferred onto their agnostic descendants.

Good nature became cultural.

It endured for generations.

We collectively behaved because it was right, not because the law demanded it.

Fast forward to the era of mass migration and our systems are being exploited by the largest, broadest fraud ever seen.

It's so bad it couldn't even be imagined.

This fraud has a criminal bounty the size of an entire nation and strongly suggests there are some cultures that do not share the Christian ethos.

We're told we need stronger guardrails.

I say we need better people and those who can't behave themselves need to leave.

[Melissa the Hopeful🏠Homemaker @BiblicalBeauty]

During an interview in 1974, Corrie ten Boom shared how she once encouraged fellow believers in Africa with one of her father's memorable lessons on why Christians need not fear being strong enough to endure suffering:

"I once said to my father (I was still a little girl), 'Daddy, I will never be strong enough to suffer for Jesus.'

And Father said, 'When you go to travel with a train to Amsterdam, when do I give you the train ticket? Three weeks before?'

I said, 'No, Daddy, the day that I go to travel.'

And Father said, 'That's what God does. Today, you do not need to have strength to suffer for Jesus, but the moment you will have the honor to suffer for Him, He will give you all the strength.' And then I was confident.

And I said to these people, 'When you have to suffer for Jesus, the Lord will give you the train ticket.'"

[Kyle Mann @The_Kyle_Mann]

Chesterton on the importance of mothers teaching their children:

“How can it be a large career to tell other people's children about the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone, and narrow to be everything to someone?”

Throwback to when Charlie Kirk called Candace Owens demonic just one week before he was murdered.

If he saw Candace's behavior after his death I'm sure he'd have a lot more to say.

Demonic doesn't even begin to cut it anymore.

Hello Australia, this is your moment. We need your support.
Iran’s women’s football team refused to sing the regime’s anthem right after the killing of Ali Khamenei.
State TV called them “war-time traitors.”
Now they’re on a bus back to Iran, flashing the SOS hand signal through the window.
I call on Australian government to them. Don’t send them back to danger. Please give them protection.

You missed the most important one as the telos of the others.

[Sabine de Pyle @bewatchful58]

@ellymelly It wasn't Western Enlightenment that recognised the worth of every individual. It was Christianity that established the value of every person as made in the image of God.

[Joel Berry @JoelWBerry]

Pastors are afraid to talk politics, while the role of politics in our lives is growing faster than ever.

The result? The number of relevant topics pastors aren’t allowed to discuss is larger than ever, and congregations are poorly equipped to apply God’s Word to the questions and struggles they face throughout the week.

You should know what the Bible says about race, gender, the sanctity of life, and the role of government. If your pastor isn’t teaching these things, he’s failing you. He’s ceding territory to Satan that Christians should be boldly claiming for the truth.

[David Collier @mishtal]

For two years our police have stood by as our streets became full of chants to 'globalise the Intifada'...

This is what globalising the intifada means - this is what it looks like - this is what its goal is.

To murder Jews.

Imagine if our education system taught this instead of the opposite.
