Around 100 boys and girls of Ennis National School knit each lunchtime as part of the Crafty Crew run by Ms. O’Neil and Ms. Harding. The club is run on donations of wool and knitting needles in order to enable any child from 3rd to 6th class to learn the skill. However, due to covid restrictions, the club cannot go ahead as normal, so instead they’ve continued in a new way. This year from lockdown in March up to last week children, parents and grandparents have been knitting squares to collaborate in making a community Christmas Tree. Originally the idea was just to create a tree, but the squares just kept on coming! The Christmas display is now in the Insomnia window in Tesco’s Shopping centre in Ennis which has been created from the hundreds of squares collected. On Friday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to teacher Ciara Harding about how the school community is closer than ever since lockdown!

Tomorrow, November 21st, marks the centenary of Bloody Sunday. The day began with an Irish Republican Army operation, organised by Michael Collins, to assassinate members of the "Cairo Gang" – a group of undercover British intelligence agents working and living in Dublin. IRA operatives went to a number of addresses and killed or fatally wounded 15 men. Later that afternoon, British forces (the RIC, Auxiliaries and British Army) raided a Gaelic football match in Croke Park. Without provocation, these forces opened fire on the spectators and players, killing fourteen civilians and wounding at least sixty others. That evening, two Irish republicans (Dick McKee and Peadar Clancy) who had helped plan the earlier assassinations, along with a civilian (Conor Clune) who happened to be caught with the others, were beaten and shot dead in Dublin Castle by their British captors, who claimed they were killed during an escape attempt. On Friday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to Conor Clune, descendant of both Cranny's Peadar Clancy and Quinn's Conor Clune, and Pat Shannon, grand-nephew to Peadar Clancy about the events of that day in 1920.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: The United States recorded over a million coronavirus cases in a single week. A vaccine may be right on the horizon, but we’re in for a brutal winter without leadership and federal funding. Meanwhile, Trump slips up and half-admits that Joe Biden won the election, but refuses to concede, as his supporters throw a pitiful, violent rally on the streets of Washington D.C. And lastly, Mitch McConnell continues his life-long quest to pack the judiciary with hard-right judges, and is still grinding nominations through the Senate nearly every day, while Senate Democrats still look for “compromise.” THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: The United States passed a grim new milestone this week: one million cases in seven days. One week ago there were 10 million confirmed cases, now there are 11. The dramatic, horrific spike comes at the worst possible time, as national leadership continues to squabble over the results of the 2020 election. And like most crises, the effects of the current spike are being felt worst by working class Americans and people of color. The New York Times reports that CDC numbers show Latino, Native, and Black Americans being hospitalized around four times as often as white people. The only positive is that the death rate appears to be lower than the spring and summer’s deadly peaks, although it is rising fast in many states. The data does indicate that the virus is seasonal, meaning the long, cold, wet winter months are going to be particularly brutal. Once we’re out the other side, there is some hope, though: experts predict a vaccine could be ready for emergency use as early as next month. But the problem then becomes distribution, and the Times reports that hurting states and cities don’t have the resources to make it happen. This is a problem that good leadership could untangle, but the Trump administration doesn’t appear to be in any way willing to help. Trump has blocked his coronavirus team from working with Biden’s task force, which could make the transition of power in January even more chaotic. The burden of levying new restrictions on social distancing and businesses is now going to fall onto local and state leaders, which means how you fare this winter has a lot to do with where you live and who’s in charge. Take care as best you can. Trump Admits Biden Won, Sorta Meanwhile, in the big baby house on the Washington Mall, President Trump almost slipped up and acknowledged that Joe Biden beat him in the presidential election earlier this month. IN a tweet on Sunday morning, Trump said quote “He won because the election was Rigged.” endquote. Half that sentence is true, at least! The rest of the tweet was more conspiratorial lies of course. But it’s at least a small sign that Trump has entered the fully grasping at straws phase of his denial. There’s still little chance he’ll actually concede, but as his idiotic lawsuits over supposed fraudulent voting aren’t making much headway, the new plan is to contend that the whole thing was rigged from the start. We’ll see how that plan plays out in court. Seeing as Trump’s legal challenges are being led by Rudy Giuliani, we aren’t too worried. On Friday, for instance, nine of Trump’s lawsuits were denied or dropped by courts, and this week promises to be more of the same. The more troubling situation is what the president’s supporters are doing. Over the weekend, right-wing militias including the Proud Boys congregated in Washington D.C. for a quote “One Million MAGA March.” After clashing with leftist-counter protesters, at least one person was stabbed and 20 were arrested. A freelance reporter was also injured in one of the clashes, and video shows right-wing militia members chasing down anti-fascists in the streets, often instigating fights. Trump has animated a section of the far right in ways no one has before, so we should get ready for a whole lot more of this over the next few months, and potentially even after Biden takes office. McConnell Pushes Judges Through And while all this is happening, the dirty grind of Mitch McConnell’s great political project continues unchecked. Thus far, McConnell has confirmed 53 of Trump’s picks for circuit judges and 164 district judges, not to mention ​_three_​ Supreme Court justices. According to Newsweek, he could add another dozen to that tally before Trump leaves office. And even once Biden gets in, McConnell still has the votes to shoot down anyone Biden puts forward. On Thursday, McConnell moved forward another six judicial nominees, who could see full floor votes this week. Remember -- the Senate could be spending its legislative time trying to pass relief bills for the ongoing pandemic, but they’re not. And Democrats seem woefully unprepared to change this devastating reign of power. In an interview with CNN on Saturday, Illinois Senator Dick Durbin said his focus is finding “compromise” with Senate Republicans. Quote: "That's where the potential is for the future. With Republicans who are ready for the Senate to be active, engaged, and finding compromises in moving forward." ENDQUOTE. What planet are these people living on? McConnell has spent the past six years refusing to compromise in any way since he got a Senate majority in the 2014 midterms. If Democrats don’t wake up and realize they need to play hardball soon, the Biden years are going to be just another chapter of wasted potential. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: Boris Johnson is self-isolating after being exposed to coronavirus... again. Johnson survived his own first case of the disease back in April but had to be hospitalized. SpaceX, the private spaceflight company founded by overly-rich provocteur Elon Musk, successfully launched a crewed rocket and capsule on Sunday, sending four astronauts into orbit where they will eventually link up with the ISS sometime on Monday night. After a hasty peace deal that let Azerbaijiani troops and Russian so-called peacekeepers flood into ethnic Armenian areas, fleeing civilians burned their own homes as they sought refuge behind Armenia’s borders. Business Insider obtained new video that shows the fake postal service whistleblower swore to his affidavit alleging voter fraud while in the same room as the founder of right-wing hit job site Project Veritas. The whistleblower later recanted his claims and said he made it up. LUCIE: That’s it for the Majority Report’s AM Quickie today! Stay tuned for the full show with Sam later today.

* Guest: Richard Mack - CSPOA.org. * Vote Challenges Fizzle in Courts - President Trump suffered multiple legal setbacks in three states on Friday, choking off many of his last-ditch efforts to use the courts to delay or block Biden's victory. In quick succession, Mr. Trump was handed defeats in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Michigan. * An agency in the president's own DHS flatly contradicted him by declaring that the election 'was the most secure in American history' and that 'there is no evidence' any voting systems malfunctioned. On Friday, 16 federal prosecutors who had been assigned to monitor the election also directly debunked claims of widespread fraud, saying in a letter to AG William Barr that there was no evidence of substantial irregularities. * Justice Alito warns of dangers to free speech, religious liberty in Federalist Society address. Religious liberty and free speech are among Americans' personal freedoms potentially imperiled along with government overreach during the coronavirus pandemic, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito warned Thursday. “Tolerance for opposing views is now in short supply,” Alito added. * When ‘Unity’ Means ‘Shut the Hell Up’ - Ben Shapiro. * Dr. Fauci: America has an "independent spirit" but now is the time "to do what you're told"! * Elon Musk was tested for the coronavirus but after four tests, he still doesn't know if he's infected.

A Clare family were hugely surprised when last night at 7pm, countless frontline services arrived outside their door, sirens blaring, to wish Chlíodhna King a happy 21st birthday. Chlíodhna has cystic fibrosis and lives with her mother Martina Wheelan. This year has been particularly difficult, with Chlíodhna having to self-isolate for a number of months due to ill-health. Chlíodhna is also in the at-risk group and has to be particularly careful in minding herself from the virus. Martina and Chlíodhna thought they wouldn’t be able to have a meaningful celebration of her 21st, but little did they know the frontline services had other ideas in mind. They even presented Chlíodhna with flowers, with videos and pictures of the celebration being shared all over Facebook.

Study Notes Ed Underwood Mark Follow Jesus; Serve Others “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Jesus Christ, Mark 10:45) The four Gospels are corresponding accounts that provide a complex portrait of the person and work, the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel, Savior of the world, and Son of God. These historical books encompass about 46% of the New Testament. Though they were not the first books written, the early church placed the Gospels at the beginning of the New Testament because they are the bedrock upon which the book of Acts and the Epistles are constructed. The Gospels are written as biographies with a purpose. They are thematic portraits of the life of Christ focusing on the brief public ministry of the Son of God. Each author selects distinctive events and teachings of the Lord Jesus to present a purposefully skewed account to accomplish their purpose: Matthew, a Jew, writes to persuade His countrymen that Christ is their King. Frequently quoting from the Old Testament Scriptures, he argues that Jesus of Nazareth “fulfills what was written.” His birth, life, death, and His resurrection leave only one possible conclusion: Jesus is the Messiah of Israel. Mark seeks to reach the Roman mindset and presents Jesus as the Servant who came to “give His life as a ransom for many. He begins by serving the masses, but as He is being rejected and His departure grows near, He concentrates on serving His disciples and equipping them to serve others in His name. Luke focuses on the Greek way of thinking, revealing Christ as the Perfect Man. Dr. Luke highlights the human side of Jesus, describing Him as the one who came to earth “to seek and save that which was lost.” John writes to everyone, regardless of culture. He selects seven miracles and arranges them carefully to persuade his readers to believe in Jesus as the Son of God who will give them eternal life. Mark is the shortest and simplest of the four Gospels. It gives the reader a vivid, compelling account of the life of Christ. With no editorial comments, Mark lets the narrative tell the story: Jesus is a Servant, constantly on the move and the pace is exhausting. He never rests, never ignores a hurting heart, and never avoids controversy, opposition, or danger. He just keeps moving and serving toward His reason for coming to earth—to suffer and die for the sin of the world. Those who follow Him on the path of serving and suffering are often confused and exhausted, but always marveling at the wonder of being close to Him. Amazed at His words and works, His compassion and strength, they come to understand what all of us realize as we read on: Following Jesus is extremely difficult, but eternally rewarding. Mark began by citing Isaiah, who predicted the Servant of God (1:3; cf. Isaiah 40:3). He ends with the Servant suffering on the Cross, and the implications of that event on the lives of His followers. Jesus came to serve God and others by providing salvation through self-sacrifice. Mark is the Gospel that most portrays Christ as the Son who became the Servant of the Lord Paul describes in Philippians 2:5-11. John Mark, the nephew of Barnabas and disciple of Peter, records the life of Christ from the eyewitness stories of Peter. “Mark’s story of Jesus is one of swift action and high drama. Only twice, in chapters 4 and 13, does Jesus pause to deliver extended discourses.” (J. D. Kingsbury, Conflict in Mark: Jesus, Authorities, Disciples, p. 1): The pace of the Book is as exhausting as the pace of life for a devoted follower of Christ. The adverb euthys, translated “immediately,” occurs 41 times! I. PROLOGUE: PREP ARA TION OF THE SERV ANT (1:1-13): Mark’ s dramatic introduction of Jesus of Nazareth sets the tone for the rest of the book. Prophecies from Malachi and Isaiah identifying John the Baptizer as Messiah’s forerunner, established Jesus’ credentials as the Christ (Messiah). Mark: All who follow the Suffering Servant must be prepared to suffer and serve— to lay down their lives and serve others in His name! II. THE SERVANT’S GALILEAN MINISTRY (1:14-8:30): His work in Galilee stirs up the religious authorities. Two series of confrontations with Jewish leaders reveal their hard hearts (2:1-3:20). The first time around, they decide to kill Him (3:6); the second time, they accuse Him of relying on Satan instead of God (3:22). Three events—the charge by the religious authorities that His powers come from Satan, His rejection at Nazareth, and the murder of John the Baptizer—precipitate a great transition in the ministry of Jesus. His primary focus from this point forward is His twelve disciples. Just one year from His crucifixion, Jesus devotes six months to an intense training of the Twelve—teaching and demonstrating that He is the Son of God—as He withdraws away from the hostility of the Jewish authorities, the domain of Herod Antipas, and the fickle masses (3:23-8:22). The great transition in Mark’s narrative follows the re-teaching of the answer to the question, “Who is Jesus?” until finally Peter answers correctly for the Twelve, “You are the Christ!” (8:30) After Peter’s declaration, the disciples will learn what kind of Messiah He is as they follow Him to Jerusalem, where they will witness His crucifixion and resurrection. III. THE SERVANT’S JUDEAN MINISTRY (8:31-16:8): Jesus’ movement to the cross dominates the second half of Mark’s Gospel. From the time they leave the north, Jesus and His disciples were “on the way” to Jerusalem (9:33; 10:32). Mark bookends this section with two separate healings of a blind man—the first in Bethsaida on the north shore of Galilee (8:22-26), the second in Jericho, just before He enters Jerusalem for the last time (10:46-52). Mark’s careful placing of these miracles demonstrates that Jesus was endeavoring to open His disciples’ eyes to the truth of the necessity of the cross and suffering. All who follow the Suffering Servant must be prepared to lay down their lives and serve others in His name. Over a third of the book is devoted to the eight days following their arrival in Judea on the Sunday before His resurrection—from His entry into Jerusalem (11:1-11) to Christ’s resurrection (16:1-8). Monday through Thursday Jesus cleared the Temple, exposed the hypocrisy of Israel’s leaders, received Mary of Bethany’s worship, predicted His desertion and betrayal, instituted the Lord’s Supper, prayed in the garden, and was arrested and condemned by the Sanhedrin. But only the Roman authority, Pilate, could execute anyone. On Friday morning, Jesus stood trial before Pilate. By 9:00 AM, after being scourged and mocked, the process of His crucifixion began—the Son of God was nailed to a cross between two thieving insurrectionists. He was guilty of being “The King of the Jews.” For six hours, Jesus suffered on the cross, the last three being accompanied by miraculous events. Then, at 3:00 PM, Jesus died, and was buried in a nearby tomb. The foundational truth of Christianity is the Gospel: Christ died for our sins and arose. But too many Christians underestimate the mighty work of Jesus on the Cross. He not only paid the penalty for our sin, He made a way for us to overcome the power of sin! MARK AND YOU: When reading Mark, keep in mind the author and the audience. John Mark was a privileged young man who failed miserably in his early Christian life. He abandoned Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey. Years later, he writes his Gospel from Rome, primarily to Roman Christians living in a proud and powerful culture. Remember that Mark is stressing sacrifice and service from a heart that grew up in privilege and to a people who dominated the world. Remember that Mark is stressing suffering from a heart that tried to avoid it and to a people who were facing persecution Remember that Mark doesn’t try to hide the faults and weaknesses of Jesus’ followers. Remember that Mark learned his lessons on suffering and servanthood the hard way—through disappointing those he admired in Christ when he decided that following Christ was too costly. Messiah: Mark portrays Jesus as an active, compassionate, and obedient Servant of God. Christ is constantly moving toward the goal of laying down His life for others!

Hunter Biden’s laptop isn’t going to go away in the final days of the campaign, no matter how much his father wishes it would. On Friday, the elder Biden made an appearance on Iowa’s KCRG-TV, during a curious visit to a state he doesn’t necessarily need to win and where the polling numbers don’t look as favorable as other states Biden could look to flip on Election Day. But I digress, since what we take away from the former vice president’s first return since winning the nomination to a state where he finished a disappointing fourth in the February caucuses might not be remarks he made at his drive-in rally as much as his response to KCRG’s Beth Malicki when she asked about the information on Hunter Biden’s laptop.

In today's News: Colorado votes on abortion  The Colorado Sun reports pro-abortion groups and activists across the country have poured $8.7 million into defeating Proposition 115, a state ballot measure that would prohibit abortions on viable unborn babies. Colorado is one of the few states with no limits on abortions, and abortionists there openly advertise abortions in the third trimester. The ballot measure would protect viable, pain-capable unborn babies by banning late-term abortions after 22 weeks of pregnancy. Exceptions would be allowed if the mother’s life is at risk. Father loses case for unborn child  An Alabama father lost a lawsuit on behalf of his unborn baby Friday at the Alabama Supreme Court. WAAY 31 reports the state high court upheld a ruling dismissing Ryan Magers’ case against the Alabama Women’s Center, an abortion facility in Huntsville that aborted his unborn baby in 2017. Magers sued the abortion facility after his girlfriend aborted their unborn baby there against his will. Initially, a Madison County judge granted his petition to represent the estate of his child, “Baby Roe,” and sue the abortion facility in a wrongful death lawsuit. However, in 2019, Madison County Circuit Judge Chris Comer dismissed the lawsuit, saying the abortion facility did not do anything unlawful. On Friday, the Alabama Supreme Court agreed with comer’s ruling. Right now, in the U.S. fathers do not have any legal rights to protect their unborn children from abortions. Laws requiring that a father be notified or given a say in an abortion have been struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court. Magers’ case was unique because a court recognized his aborted baby as the plaintiff and him as the representative of his baby’s estate. Magers said his girlfriend was six weeks pregnant when she had the abortion in 2017. By six weeks, an unborn baby’s heart is already beating. At conception, an unborn baby also has his/her own unique DNA that determines hair and eye color, gender and other traits.  U.S takes U.N. to account  The acting administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, John Barsa, has sent a scathing letter to the U.N. secretary general for allowing U.N. experts to promote abortion. He also told him to make “A course-correction for the greater good of the U.N.” this is the second letter Barsa has sent to the Secretary General Antonio Guterres of Portugal complaining of un abortion activism during the covid-19 pandemic. The first was sent in May. But even as Guterres was responding to Barsa, on May 22 a group of U.N. human rights officials and experts issued a letter to the United States government criticizing U.S. states that had not designated abortion as essential during the covid-19 pandemic, among them Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Ohio, Tennessee and Texas.
