Editorial Media hatred of Trump shields Biden
A headline names President Trump in a murder. A husband had killed his wife and allegedly used her vote, afterwards, to vote for Trump as an alibi. It is not yet certain the killer broke electoral laws established during the COVID crisis. He might not have forged her signature and it might still have been counted. Why do we know the vote was cast for Trump? Would a vote for Biden have changed the status of the investigation? Maybe Liz Cheney can enlighten us, with her vow to do anything to prevent Trump from being elected an historic third time. Usually it is a power hungry Democrat who goes for more than two elections. Except Trump has been fraudulently denied the 2020 election as an investigation into voting is showing. When Democrat Governor of California faced recall, he insisted on signatures being checked and 20% of signatures were fouled off. But during the 2020 Presidential election, some states did not check voter signatures.
It is now being revealed by former Biden staffers that Biden is a Malcolm Turnbull type talent. He hesitates and pontificates but holds onto the power of saying 'no' well past the time a 'yes' might be practicable. Before Biden implements policy that he thought of, he is implementing policy that others preached, and that failed others. This failed policy is getting people killed in the Middle East, and denying workers jobs at home. Kudos to the forty two million Biden voters who voted twice.
How is the press covering the Biden fiasco? By reporting that AOC had an ugly confrontation with a congress woman she publicly attacked? Marjorie Taylor Greene is correct in saying AOC has endorsed the murderous terrorists of 'Palestine' over the government and peoples of Israel?
Or maybe the press are ignoring Biden's failure and focusing on the antics of Elon Musk?
Editorial Cricket Australia's Ball tampering fail
The treatment of Australia's cricket elite over a professional foul of ball tampering was absurd. A player cheated badly and as a result management was cleaned out and the Captain and Vice Captain were hung out to dry. Instead of a match fee being removed from guilty parties, innocent parties resigned, and senior players were ousted for years from the sport and lost $millions. For trying to wear out one side of a cricket ball during play when the ball was playing dead. In other similar incidents players don't face any sanctions.
Recently, the incumbent Australian captain who has led a weakened side weakly has admitted that the former captain should get his job back. And then the press inflate a 'confession' from the cricketer who committed the foul. What will the press do when they find out about Biden's involvement with the downing of MH 17 in Ukraine? We may never know.
Actor Craig McLachlan was brutally attacked by press over allegations he was innocent. But the press are persevering with trying to destroy his career forever.
Editorial Press harassing Israel as Israel defends herself from WMD
Israelis are facing tens of thousand of rocket attacks as terroristt celebrate Biden's 2020 election fraud.
On May15th, Journalists against Israel 'report' on grim death toll and UN opinion favouring terrorists. We are told that there was a horror moment when Israeli police raided a home with human shields being active for terrorists. Israel collapsed tunnels which had housed high explosives.
On May 16th we read that two press agencies, AP and Al Jazeera were using their home base in the conflict to shelter those launching missiles. "They’re not going to get weapons. They’re going to get their cameras and their work gear,” he said." "Moments later, hundreds of journalists watched their office be reduced to rubble after the Israeli army launched an air strike against it, demolishing the 13-floor building in the Gaza Strip." Apparently the life work of journalists is now to shield terrorists from retribution?
The next day, press again report among fatalities of human shields used by terrorists to protect military targets. Only we don't know that that is what happened at all. In the past, journalists have staged things to look like atrocities.
As Fatah's leader clings to power decades after a fraudulent election win, Press denounce Benjamin Netanyahu of clinging to power.
Editorial how Biden started Jew Killing in Middle East
Two competing foreign policy agenda are regionalism vs bilateralism. Trump favoured bilateral relations policy. Obama favoured regionalism and recreated a cold war to achieve those aims. Under cold war theory, trouble nations like North Korea and Iran are forced to find a big protector like China or Russia to protect them. Under Bilateral theory, nations are free to achieve their agenda and engage with nations for mutual benefit. In the Middle East, a Cold War theory question of the USA to their satellite countries is "What is your biggest security threat?" and, filtered through the noise of competing factors is the answer 'Israel.' Israel is not a threat to anyone, but the compromise takes into account the desire of terrorists to achieve their aim of destroying Israel. However, when bilateral practitioners ask their question 'What do you want?' Then, most Middle East nations do not consider Israel at all.
Under bilateral practice, Trump achieved a balanced peace in the Middle East. Under regionalism, Biden has revived terrorism, with tens of thousands of rockets aimed at Israel as thousands are fired daily. The press are happy for the war, as they hand wring and write of the possibility of peace they despised Trump. Where to next? Cold War involves bureaucratic process. Terrible things happen like the shooting down of a Malaysian airways flight over Ukraine, where the guilty parties, including Biden, have never been brought to book.
Already, Biden meddling in the Israeli election process has clouded the state of Israel's administration. Under Cold War rules, can Israel defend herself?

Here is a video I made I pity the poor immigrant
John Wesley Harding is singer-songwriter Bob Dylan's eighth studio album, released by Columbia Records in December 1967.
Produced by Bob Johnston, the album marked Dylan's return to acoustic music and traditional roots, after three albums of electric rock music. John Wesley Harding was recorded around the same time as (and shares many stylistic threads with) a prolific series of home recording sessions with The Band, finally released in 1975 as The Basement Tapes.

Don't give up on hope. Anti Trump activists are hopeful that the NK peace achievement folds, and that something terrible happens. Scott Adams posted a month ago that Trump could walk away from the summit, which was predictable as written in The Art of the Deal. And so Trump has walked away from the summit, citing NK hostility. Summing up, NK has decommissioned her nuke site, given up hostages and still endures sanctions. Trump is walking away from something that could make NK rich. But, at the same time, Stormy Daniels is being given a symbolic key to Hollywood. As Stormy gets given the keys on camera, politicians surround her who tacitly endorse her work in the porn industry to their families. This makes Trump look bad? It has been announced that Syria's defences which failed utterly to defend her against Israel's targeted strikes recently were the first time the F35 strike fighter has been used in battle. And the fighters get top marks for potency and effectiveness. The advantage may not be long lived, as Turkey is getting US equipment and sharing it with Russia. A report has come out that Russia is responsible for shooting down MH17, but the report says nothing about Ukraine using civilians as bait. Obama's cold war was responsible, ultimately, for the loss of life, but Obama will never face justice for his activity.
Another who will never face justice for their depraved indifference to their choices in public office is Lee Rhiannon. Lee is a garden variety Marxist who supports people known for terrorism. She is retiring from public office, but retains a substantial pension.
There are few things more distressing than local government over reach. There is no defence against it or remedy. a Green ALP nexus in Greater Dandenong council engage in terrible abuse of power. They are needed organise rubbish removal and facilitate town planning. Instead they engage in other things. They call it recycling and claim the municipality profits from it, but the municipality does not recycle and instead makes a loss from more expensive collection. Planning is appalling, where prior to the last election nearly a hundred houses with developers seeking planning approval were refused permission although they met all criteria for development. The council "Had a feeling" and the papers did not report it until after the election press blackout. That meant the council could approve the developments as a new council and give themselves a glowing bottom line, after charging developers tens of thousands of dollars in lost opportunity and fees. One councillor was really proud of something the council had done. Ingress and Egress of crowds from events is a science, and council has built into the neighbourhood over the years the principles needed at crowded venues for quick dispersals. But what it means is pathways diverge and the given route from a to b is rarely a straight line. The councillor thought it wonderful that older folk had to walk more around the neighbourhood. I hope, when the councillor is older, they experience the obstacles and inconveniences council has planned for the elderly on foot.
Another brilliant planned assault on the elderly is at Dunn Crescent where olive trees have been planted. An elderly resident did not want olive trees, but had no say. Council thought it brilliant, because when the olives ripened they could be picked by poor people for free. Instead the trees are diseased and birds come from afar for the fruit in large numbers, so the elderly resident not only has close proximity to fruit she is allergic to, but cannot enjoy the outdoors for the birds. The resident is in favour of trees. The resident likes birds. But the council over rode their objections and papers won't report it. Last year I spoke with an elderly lady in another ALP dominated council area. Her husband had died the previous year, and she was finding it hard to maintain the home she'd had all her life. A tree was growing in her bedroom and she couldn't deal with it because it is a tree. Council would not help her, but obstructed her. She could not sell the house because of the tree, either. Luckily, the Libs are responsible and a local Liberal state senator (Craig Ondarchie) was able to speak to the councillors and get things expedited. Imagine if there were no responsible politicians who would address the petty abuse of local government power?

Some things should not happen, but they do. Pauline Hanson in a senate committee asking questions regarding a halal slaughtering practice. Australian standards have it that the animal is stunned before being slaughtered. Animal activists are teaming up with anti Muslim activists to take out animal trade. Otherwise a bad practice abattoir would be reported and the well run industry would operate at peak efficiency. But politicians panic. Or get drunk. Hank Johnson used a congressional hearing to ask a US serviceman if Guam would capsize from the number of serving US troops there. He later claimed he was joking, but the serviceman answered questions appropriately and the press have aided Johnson, who now has an enviable efficiency rating as a congressman. Hanson asked if the animals were alive before being killed. She had meant stunned. The press are not going to come to the aid of Pauline. And the experts replying were not as respectful of Pauline as the US soldier was of Johnson.
On this day in 567 BC, Servius Tullius, the king of Rome, celebrated a triumph for his victory over the Etruscans. Militarily, the victory was complete. Culturally, the Romans would use the Etruscan public service and art faculties forever after. 240 BC, first recorded perihelion passage of Halley's Comet. Recorded in China in the Chronicle Records of the Grand Historian. 1085, Alfonso VI of Castile took Toledo, Spain, back from the Moors. 1521, the Diet of Worms ended when Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, issues the Edict of Worms, declaring Martin Luther an outlaw. 1644, Ming general Wu Sangui formed an alliance with the invading Manchus and opened the gates of the Great Wall of China at Shanhaiguan pass, letting the Manchus through towards the capital Beijing. 1659, Richard Cromwell resigned as Lord Protector of England following the restoration of the Long Parliament, beginning a second brief period of the republican government called the Commonwealth of England. 1738, a treaty between Pennsylvania and Maryland ended the Conojocular War with settlement of a boundary dispute and exchange of prisoners. A result was the formation of the Mason Dixon line.
1878, Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera H.M.S. Pinafore opened at the Opera Comique in London. 1895, the playwright, poet, and novelist Oscar Wilde was convicted of "committing acts of gross indecency with other male persons" and sentenced to serve two years in prison. 1925, Scopes Trial: John T. Scopes was indicted for teaching Charles Darwin's theory of evolution in Tennessee. There was more to the trial than evolution. There was also Eugenics and Racial Purity. The subsequent success for either 'side' was limited. It was Christian Fundamentalists vs Christian progressives on a non issue that had been legislated for in ignorance by people who thought evolution opposed the bible.
1935, Jesse Owens of Ohio State University broke three world records and tied a fourth at the Big Ten Conference Track and Field Championships in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Jesse Owens was a great man who deserved better support from his President, FDR. 1961, Apollo program: The U.S. President John F. Kennedy announced before a special joint session of the Congress his goal to initiate a project to put a "man on the Moon" before the end of the decade. 1979, Etan Patz, who was six years old, disappeared from the street just two blocks away from his home in New York City, prompting an international search for the child, and causing the U.S. President Ronald Reagan to designate May 25 as National Missing Children's Day (in 1983). In 2015, a mistrial was declared on a possible prosecution. In 2017, the killer was sentenced to life, with the possibility of parole in 25 years.

Nash died tragically, but old and blessed. John Nash and his wife died in an accident in a taxi they were travelling in, in New Jersey. He was 86 when he died. Neither had been wearing seat belts. Nash's fame and career was based around his tremendous advances to Mathematics in game theory. He stopped after about ten years of research due to a mental disease covered in the movie A Beautiful Mind. He recovered from the disease and personally triumphed. The ending is sad, but the life was inspirational.
Who will lead the west? Great leaders have come forward in times of adversity. Churchill. Thatcher. Reagan. Not all need to have used military with home support, there was also Martin King, John Paul II or Billy Graham. In Australia we have two examples that define things, John Howard who forged international respect without backing down from core conservative values, or Bob Hawke who is more highly lauded than responsible for worthwhile achievements. The West needs someone who unites, not divides. Someone who respects cultural assets and believes in the manifest destiny of world peace.

1 Then David said, "The house of the LORD God is to be here, and also the altar of burnt offering for Israel."
Preparations for the Temple
2 So David gave orders to assemble the foreigners residing in Israel, and from among them he appointed stonecutters to prepare dressed stone for building the house of God. 3 He provided a large amount of iron to make nails for the doors of the gateways and for the fittings, and more bronze than could be weighed. 4 He also provided more cedar logs than could be counted, for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought large numbers of them to David....
Today's New Testament reading: John 8:28-59
28 So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me. 29 The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him." 30 Even as he spoke, many believed in him....

Morning
In looking back upon the character of our prayers, if we do it honestly, we shall be filled with wonder that God has ever answered them. There may be some who think their prayers worthy of acceptance--as the Pharisee did; but the true Christian, in a more enlightened retrospect, weeps over his prayers, and if he could retrace his steps he would desire to pray more earnestly. Remember, Christian, how cold thy prayers have been. When in thy closet thou shouldst have wrestled as Jacob did; but instead thereof, thy petitions have been faint and few--far removed from that humble, believing, persevering faith, which cries, "I will not let thee go except thou bless me." Yet, wonderful to say, God has heard these cold prayers of thine, and not only heard, but answered them. Reflect also, how infrequent have been thy prayers, unless thou hast been in trouble, and then thou hast gone often to the mercy-seat: but when deliverance has come, where has been thy constant supplication? Yet, notwithstanding thou hast ceased to pray as once thou didst, God has not ceased to bless. When thou hast neglected the mercy-seat, God has not deserted it, but the bright light of the Shekinah has always been visible between the wings of the cherubim. Oh! it is marvellous that the Lord should regard those intermittent spasms of importunity which come and go with our necessities. What a God is he thus to hear the prayers of those who come to him when they have pressing wants, but neglect him when they have received a mercy; who approach him when they are forced to come, but who almost forget to address him when mercies are plentiful and sorrows are few. Let his gracious kindness in hearing such prayers touch our hearts, so that we may henceforth be found "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit."
Evening
The word "conversation" does not merely mean our talk and converse with one another, but the whole course of our life and behaviour in the world. The Greek word signifies the actions and the privileges of citizenship: and thus we are commanded to let our actions, as citizens of the New Jerusalem, be such as becometh the gospel of Christ. What sort of conversation is this? In the first place, the gospel is very simple. So Christians should be simple and plain in their habits. There should be about our manner, our speech, our dress, our whole behaviour, that simplicity which is the very soul of beauty. The gospel is pre-eminently true, it is gold without dross; and the Christian's life will be lustreless and valueless without the jewel of truth. The gospel is a very fearless gospel, it boldly proclaims the truth, whether men like it or not: we must be equally faithful and unflinching. But the gospel is also very gentle. Mark this spirit in its Founder: "a bruised reed he will not break." Some professors are sharper than a thorn-hedge; such men are not like Jesus. Let us seek to win others by the gentleness of our words and acts. The gospel is very loving. It is the message of the God of love to a lost and fallen race. Christ's last command to his disciples was, "Love one another." O for more real, hearty union and love to all the saints; for more tender compassion towards the souls of the worst and vilest of men! We must not forget that the gospel of Christ is holy. It never excuses sin: it pardons it, but only through an atonement. If our life is to resemble the gospel, we must shun, not merely the grosser vices, but everything that would hinder our perfect conformity to Christ. For his sake, for our own sakes, and for the sakes of others, we must strive day by day to let our conversation be more in accordance with his gospel.

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.
Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?
January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)
