Blow the Truth

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced that South-East Queensland will enter a three-day lockdown from 4pm today, Saturday 31 July. This follows the detection of six new locally acquired cases connected to the confirmed case announced yesterday. This includes immediate family members, a UQ medical student and teacher at Ironside State School. The Premier said strong measures announced today go further than previous lockdowns because the Delta strain is more dangerous. “We’ve seen the evidence, both in Queensland and interstate,” the Premier said. "We must go hard and go fast. "I know this will impact on many families but there is no alternative. "We will support affected businesses with details of a support package to be announced by the treasurer in coming days.” Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Yvette D’Ath urged Queenslanders to abide by the lockdown and continue to wear their masks. “Masks are a vitally important line of defence,” the Minister said. “I...

 Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the USA Donald J. Trump: Hard to believe our Senate Republicans are dealing with the Radical Left Democrats in making a so-called bipartisan bill on “infrastructure,” with our negotiators headed up by SUPER RINO Mitt Romney. This will be a victory for the Biden Administration and Democrats and will be heavily used in the 2022 election. It is a loser for the USA, a terrible deal, and makes the Republicans look weak, foolish, and dumb. It shouldn’t be done. It sets an easy glidepath for Dems to then get beyond what anyone thought was possible in future legislation. It will be a continued destruction of our Country. Our Borders are horrible, crime is at an all time high, taxes and inflation are going way up, the economy is going way down, and now this. Don’t do it Republicans—Patriots will never forget! If this deal happens, lots of primaries will be coming your way! Donald J. Trump We won’t go back. We won’t mask our children. Joe Biden and his Adm...

Remarks by President Biden and Chancellor Merkel of the Federal Republic of Germany in Press Conference   BIDEN: Thank you all. Please have a seat. Today, it’s been my great honor — and I mean that — to welcome a dear friend back to the White House. And before I say anything else, Chancellor Merkel, I want to express to you and to the people of Germany my sincere condolences and the condolences of the American people for the devastating loss of life and the destruction due to the flooding over the past 24 hours in Germany and neighboring countries. It’s a tragedy, and our heart goes out — our hearts go out to the families who’ve lost loved ones.   Chancellor Merkel has been here frequently over the past 16 years. Matter of fact, she knows the Oval Office as well as I do. But all kidding aside, through — though this administration — she’s been there for four years — for four Presidents.   But I want to take a moment to acknowledge the historic nature of her chancellorship....

Surfers Paradise Beach Photo Blow the Truth   The Palaszczuk Government’s COVID-19 Economic Recovery Plan is working, with the latest ABS Labour Force data showing Queensland unemployment at its lowest level since April 2009. Treasurer and Minister for Investment Cameron Dick said 16,700 jobs were added in the month of June – the highest increase in the nation and more than half of all jobs created in Australia. “Today’s Labour Force jobs data highlights once again that Queensland is the place to work, to do business and to invest,” Mr Dick said. “Our unemployment rate is now at 5.1 per cent, down 0.3 percentage points from last month and at a level not seen in more than 12 years. “Since the Palaszczuk Labor Government was first elected in 2015 we’ve created 354,100 jobs for Queensland. “More than 500 new jobs were added every day last month, and with our COVID-19 Economic Recovery Plan in full swing we’ll look to build on these numbers further in the months and years ahead.” Queen...

This lawsuit is just the beginning and just one part of a bigger fight.  This suit isn’t the whole battle: it’s an opening shot. We’ll fight in the courts, we’ll fight in the legislatures, and we’ll fight at the ballot boxes until the American people have their rights and sovereignty restored.

That’s why we’re excited to announce the formation of the Constitutional Litigation Partnership -- to restore America’s government to one that ...
