It`s time we stood on our own two feet.
Just a shame we don`t have the leadership to do so.

Undue influence? There's nothing to suggest that the Australian political numpties will follow Donald Trump. They have neither the intellect nor the courage to do so.

Comparing the influence of Communist China with that of our greatest ally is not very smart of the author.

China is a threat to us. Without America, we are toast: on defence and most other things. It's alarming how so many Australians don't comprehend how pathetic and vulnerable Australia has become.

Left wing Canadians seem to be a bit sillier than Left wing Australians when it comes to Trump and America. Could because they abut the US of course.

Candidate to replace Trudeau, Christia Freeland, says that she is going for the job because a 4 year old little girl asked if she could stop Donald Trump from invading Canada.

Typical 4 year old, into politics and interviewing politicians. The 56 year old Freeland expects people to believe the story.

Freeland actually says, “And that’s why I am standing to lead the liberal party and to become the next Prime Minister of Canada.”

She also says that “Trump represents the greatest threat to Canada since World War Two.”

Her first move in the job could be to conscript all Canada’s 4 year olds to fight off big bad Donald.

How many of you have heard of Jean Dixon ? Apparently, she foretold quite a few happenings !
One of them was "The Eagle & the Bear will unite against the Dragon". It's starting to look like she might've been right !
But first, the lunatic Left needs to be made to see the folly of its error !

I must admit was taken aback when you mentioned USAID and the Nationalal Endowment for Democracy.
I think you might be the first author to have mentioned them both here ever, especially in that context.
I've been trying to tell the members of this forum the same thing for over a decade;
Then you went and outdid yourself with the Kissinger quote which I was only just thinking of a few days back and planned to add to one of my own comments.

Even in a decade, I couldn't have done a better job than what you just wrote.
I take my hat off to you and clap Sir, bravo.

Trump is trying to take power back to the elected 'Commander In Chief' from what has become an unelected administrative deep-state.
EC is unelected and EU is an administrative state tied to NATO in Brussels, Vance chastised all of them at the Munich Security Conference for their authoritarian leanings and Trump threatens to destroy the lot by normalising ties with Russia, which would remove any need for NATO altogether.

What we have now is a kind of NATO Civil War.
You can see what leaders are on what side, by the Ukraine war.
They're all part of a corrupted global gang, and the citizenry aren't in it.
