Thank you, Excess. As an American subscriber I appreciate the inclusion of Washington and the spirit that initially embodied this country. I hope our future - planet wide- has the wisdom to take what is best from our collective past, as we (eventually) reimagine our future. Best to you.

Washington's writing is exceptionally good because it was measured and deliberate. Everyone always cites Jefferson, but the simplicity of Washington's leadership was really the glue that held the young America together.

When Washington spoke, people listened.

It feels with Washington's presence and role, some Divine intervention was in the works.

We could use some more of that glue.

You are clearly an American at heart, in the highest sense of what that was meant to mean. Thanks for this history lesson, from a Canadian.

God bless you where ever you are.

As I’ve always said, as goes Australia, goes us all. Those not paying attention to world politics do not understand the value of forewarning! Thank you for this incredible post and I will be sharing it with my large gathering of family today. God Bless you and all our fellow substackers! And to my American compatriots Happy Thanksgiving and for the rest of you, I will be adding all of you to my reasons to be thankful today.

Thank you JudyC. God Bless you and your family on this Blessed day.

On that note, I will be sending out a quick email to readers. Something happened in Perth today while I was writing your Thanksgiving message and I will be warning people.

What a fantastic post. You seem to know more about our history than many of our own citizens. I live in Texas, btw. Happy Thanksgiving Day to you also! I have often said that a world wide day of Thanksgiving would be a good idea. Even after the last 4 years.

Another excellent post. I think of Washington often. A different breed of men back then. I try to imagine what it must have been like; 7 years of war, of loss after loss, but not falling to despair. And the living conditions. So many of the men had no shoes, and hiked miles and miles with burlap wrapped around bleeding feet, starving. A great man, indeed and in deed.

When I get really down about current events, I think back to what it must have been like back then and I pray that God bless us like he did back then for surely the hand of God was on Washington and the others. I pray.

Friend, you do not have to imagine. You are currently living it.

Wonderful article...inspiring reminder...and a sobering warning about the war at hand. There’s not a single event that unifies us all to action. It’s advancing methodically to our destruction from multiple vectors. Valley Forge made sense, albeit with untold courage. Today’s war is very very different.

This is to let you know that your most recent article about re-opening the covid camps, is not linking from the email to your substack platform. Clicking on its title doesn't work.

Thank you Joanie - can you still see the content? I believe 'emails' are not linked to the Substack platform for all and sundry. They are a more intimate means of communication to subscribers.

Sincere apologies for the confusion.

But I receive notification for everything you post (as a paid subscriber), and they all link... but just not that one.

The camp content was an 'email' which does not link to the Substack platform. In any case, I am now dealing with an impersonator who has ripped off my work which is very annoying. So if anyone sees an account 'SOS: Save our Sovereignty' that is not me.

Expand full comment

Okay. Confusing as all substacks I'm subscribed to (whether free or paid) come to me by way of email. Anyway I've not seen that 'SOS' account but good to have the heads up. I recently had someone repost one of my articles calling it a "guest post" which nevertheless featured his name and not mine; when I complained, he merely added my name at the very bottom. I finally asked him to take down the article, which he thankfully did. Talk about plagiarism!

Yes! That is exactly what happened to me! Gosh, what an annoyance.

Thanks for this piece, which caught my eye here, up over, and which led me to read (mostly) your ‘Theatre of War’ artifact, whereupon I would simply wish to note to you that here in Oregon, a supermajority, forty-year-reigning-one-party State, “the term” has long been called, coordination.

PS I especially loved the Victoria construction workers showing tyranny for what it is. Be well.

Thank you Brett. If you are in Oregon, I think you will understand what conditions are like here better than most. When you have time, you can read this about the WA Health Act 2016 https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/the-australian-government-may-legally

And the only thing that worked to slow this: https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/hidden-protest-the-day-a-group-of

Yes, the construction workers had the correct energy - there was a LOT of that here which was blacked out by the overseas media.

Unfortunately, political solutions are not possible here due to the highly centralised way the state is constructed (including law enforcement) and the contitution is written (we are subjects of the Crown). So, individual non-compliance is our only lever.

We are utterly captured, a hard lesson for us to learn at the time, and incomprehensible to outsiders. They become extremely angry with me when I try to explain to them that their petitions and political action will not work, have never worked. The rich pull the levers of power here and even the power of the rich is limited due to the geopolitical factors at play.

Thanks for reading.

Dear ExcessDeathsAU, Thank you for the Thanksgiving wishes, and the honor to George Washington. Your blog has been a bright light in these times of tyranny. May it continue to be so.

pleased to restack your post today and

offer the following comment:

life is played out on a universal chesslike board comprising dark and light beings,

with all shades inbetween

but unlike a chess match, when our white bishop meets black rook,

black rook transforms to white rook

we strive to be better teachers, fading the grays into shades of white

as pawns, many of us are simply content, to serve on the side of light

Perhaps you identify as a pawn, but I have free will, given by God.

Aloha from sir Philip of Maui. I hope that your day is off to a good start.

You seem like a trustworthy person, so I was thinking that I might share a little with you ... but in strict confidence.
