(1) Musings of a foreign interferer.

It's one of the labels I attach to myself, because of Democrat hypocrisy. I'm not legally allowed to buy an official MAGA hat, bc it's a campaign contribution, & I'm a foreign national.

Yet other foreign nationals can buy US elections.

(2) "Foreign interference" clearly means different things to different people. So I have a bit of fun with the term.

Ironically, socialist John Lennon said this:

(3) I'm tweeting today about a whole range of subjects and will add some of it to this thread.

Remember to do electronic #prepping today, tomorrow etc.

Have your own data backed up somewhere, preferably not only on the cloud.

Be strict with yourself on your priorities.

(4) No matter what, always put your personal safety and wellbeing first. Then your loved ones in your household. Then other loved ones...

Are you getting the picture?

IDK what the next 1-2 months hold but I am #prepping for anything, while ofc hoping for the best.

(5) It's weird having to use a public forum to give you these messages but it is what it is.

Silver lining is that I can reach more people, incl. those too scared to tweet or DM.

I am strict when it comes to online randoms trying to get me down.

(6) The skills you and I have learned in the past 5 years are needed right now.

>put on your own oxygen mask first
>take regular breaks to de-stress
>do your own research
>think for yourself
>never give up
>never give in
>never surrender.

(7) IDC what system, person or belief is your source of inspiration & motivation, as long you have one (or more.)

I have my Christian faith, but also a ton of experience in not having a faith. So I can help anyone, regardless. AMA.

As for humans, Winston Churchill's my guy.

(8) Along with Churchill, and Trump, I'm also fond of Reagan, Lincoln, Washington, & Thatcher.

And Pence, Thomas Sowell, Kurt Schlichter, Irina Moises, Ric Grenell, General Flynn, Ted Cruz, Greg Abbott, and Steve Scalise.

Their combined wisdom is a great inspiration to me.

(9) I assume that Trump knew years ago that they would stop at nothing to hold on to power.

He knew how hard the job would be, and he did it anyway. That is literally the definition of #courage.

We are called to have courage, too.

Courage wins wars.

(10) There's a great analogy about courage: Sheep, sheepdogs, & wolves.

Most people are sheep. They don't have courage to do what is really hard.

I'm a sheepdog, but when sheep see my teeth, they see a wolf. Wolves have teeth, dogs have teeth.

Don't be a sheep, or a wolf.

(11) Fun fact: I'm a sheep farmer's daughter, & my family tree is full of them on both sides, for centuries.

Australians call New Zealanders insulting names about sheep & vice versa. It's a term of endearment ofc.

And yes, there are still more sheep than people in NZ.😄

(12) “Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.”

-General George S. Patton

(13) The Second World War provides a treasure trove of lessons for individuals, institutions, and countries.

I am regularly blown away by the character of those who served in any capacity, including civilians. And by people's skill levels.

We each have the same potential.

(14) Your role in this crisis might be to support a spouse who is working every hour that God sends to get the job done. Trust me, having someone take care of practical day to day needs like that is essential.

You might be an encourager, like me. Or a prayer warrior.

(15) There will be ups and downs throughout the crisis. Discipline your mind now to withstand our enemy's attempts to grind us down. They will use anything: our anger, our fear, our joy.

Do not let them do that.
