Editorial Chinese spy defects with evidence China compromised Biden over Wuhan flu

An uncorroborated report of a senior Chinese official defecting to the United States is not a surprise. Even after the Biden coup in which a fraudulent election imposed a socialist administration on the United States, the US lifestyle is still highly desirable for many around the world. This official is alleged to have defected with his daughter, who had gone to university in the US. The official is alleged to have been the senior counter intelligence spy of China. He defected with terabytes of data showing Wuhan flu was part of Chinese bio weapons research partly funded by the US government. He also provided evidence of senior US officials in Chinese pockets. He also provided evidence of US universities compromised by Chinese student spies. Evidence. Students who had been supposed to be studying in USA returning to China in February 2020 prior to lockdown. 

There is circumstantial evidence of the defection. The Biden administration has backflipped over the issue of a Wuhan institute release of Wuhan flu, possibly by accident. China has demanded the return of the spy at a meeting scheduled with no apparent purpose. Redacted freedom of information documents from Fauci emails suggest an investigation at the DOJ over Fauci's Wuhan handling. The redaction was coded as if Fauci's apparent corruption was not what was being investigated. 

Now that Biden's most recent pet dog has died of old age, how does Biden feel? What does it mean for Biden's attempts to deal with racism in America? Why are Biden administration officials spending US dollars on Chinese bio weapons research? 

Editorial AGW campaign claims Japanese institution?

Toshiba has a history dating back to 1875 Japan. She is most famous for tv electronics and nuclear power stations. Since Japan scaled back nuclear power stations following Fukushima, when a nuclear disaster was averted by effective standards, following an earthquake. Toshiba is no longer a consumer electronics producer, following bankruptcy of her subsidiary Westinghouse in 2017. 

Keeping the books balanced during the anti nuclear crusade is hard. But the press won't admit the issue. So instead, corporate malfeasance becomes the story. Green industry is unprofitable and funded by hollowing out valuable industry. AGW hysteria is making the world poorer. 

Editorial, Who speaks for 'all women'?

It is a truth that only racists speak for all black peoples, who is it in the media who speaks for all women? Under what circumstance might their claim be verified? Polling booths? Except that data is not captured in Australian voting booths, where the vote is secret. The 'journalist' Samantha Maiden, has written a piece claiming former deputy PM Barnaby Joyce could not get votes from females, according to unnamed colleagues. Are these the same colleagues who claimed Abbott could not get votes from females? How could the journalist verify the source claims? Or, hasn't the journalist made any effort to verify anything? Under what world view could such a claim be made? 

Barnaby Joyce was an effective leader with Abbott. Joyce was responsible for '100 dams' legislation which will change Australia from a desert dominated wasteland to a world breadbasket. ALP has opposed all such progressive moves, as did Malcolm Turnbull. Where Joyce has run afoul is over his personal life in which he had had the sad fact of a failed marriage and went on to marry a trusted adviser. Joyce has never betrayed his public trust, and might be faultless privately, for all the public knows. Similar could not be said of the ALP, or Turnbull.

Don't give up on hope. Trump has tweeted on press hysteria over Melania's wardrobe. Melanie wore a jacket with the words "I really don't care. Do U?" on her back. Press hysterically denounced the choice, saying it was inappropriate to visit sick children wearing that. Actually, it would be inappropriate to visit children wearing the skin of their dead friends, which is a little like what a newspaper is and maybe why kids don't read 'em. However, Trump notes the message was to the press and they received it, but were confused by it. Melanie was instrumental in convincing Trump to reunite families divided by Obama policy. 

Charles Krauthammer has died of cancer, aged 68. He was a brilliant, gifted, political commentator and his loss at the prime of a writing life is sad. Hilary doesn't understand why her email activity is viewed as corrupt. Gowdy criticises Comey

ALP promises Longman cash. Bill Shorten has promised $120 million in education, to go to building a university facility with laboratory. His offer is as believable as his claims of support to Gillard or Rudd. The promise is as likely as the sun rising from the South. ALP lied about the citizenship of her members to gain advantage. One hopes Longman does not reward that behaviour. 
=== from 2017 ===
Some things should not happen, but they do. Press aren't reporting, but campaigning. In the US, Trump backed a candidate and papers threatened it was too much, and would weaken Trump if his GOP candidate lost. But Karen Handel won Georgia, as did Trump. Otto Warmbier's parents declined an autopsy. The evidence of NK abuse was covered up by his body healing over a year anyway. But press are suggesting it is weird. In UK the weather is getting warm, at 34 centigrade. Some anti conservative protestors are hoping to disrupt every day lives with a march of rage. The activists are seeking to blame May for anything in the news. May is PM, and so there is a logic behind it. There is also a logic behind IS terrorism. Today is a particularly holy Islamic day, supposed to be spent in prayer and contemplation. IS is hoping to desecrate it through terrorism. In Melbourne, one university student on a train was heard hyperventilating and cussing as she loudly talked to a vietnamese ethnic girl who was her friend. The Vietnamese girl was calling from hospital where she was recovering. She had a collapsed lung and many stab wounds. She had been set upon by many 'men' in North Melbourne who demanded money from her which she did not have. Her friend asked "Why are you alive?" No reports yet of the stabbers being captured by police. One news report mentioned two girls slashed.  

In 217 BC, the Romans, led by Gaius Flaminius, were ambushed and defeated by Hannibal at the Battle of Lake Trasimene. 533, a Byzantine expeditionary fleet under Belisarius sailed from Constantinople to attack the Vandals in Africa, via Greece and Sicily. 1307, Külüg Khan was enthroned as Khagan of the Mongols and Wuzong of the Yuan. 1529, French forces were driven out of northern Italy by Spain at the Battle of Landriano during the War of the League of Cognac. 1582, Sengoku jidaiOda Nobunaga, the most powerful of the Japanese daimyo, was forced to commit suicide by his own general Akechi Mitsuhide. 1621, execution of 27 Czech noblemen on the Old Town Square in Prague was a consequence of the Battle of White Mountain.
=== from 2016 ===
 Much is being made of Eddie McGuire's joke about a female sports journalist being dunked. Rosie Batty has connected it to domestic violence. Bill Shorten has said that it is wrong to joke about drowning. Eddie has apologised. However, it wasn't a joke but an aside, it wasn't the same as an Engish King asking for someone to rid them of a meddlesome priest. It was Eddie saying it would be fun to dunk the journalist. Of course we should not joke about domestic violence or drownings. Drowning migrants to Australia is not funny either. 

The worst massacre on US soil was not a lone gunman praising Allah and killing gays. That recent act was abysmal, but the worst massacre on US soil was Wounded Knee in 1890. The US military had been taking rifles away from Lakota, claiming it was to protect them. Then the military shot nearly three hundred of them, more than two hundred being women and children. Democrat Grover Cleveland had finished his first term, and GOP President Harrison failed to stamp his authority. One can look at the history of US politics and struggle to find a single Democrat President that was worthwhile. 

For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.  
=== from 2015 ===
The secret to good conservative governance is that a diverse range of ideas can be publicly examined. No individual politician can espouse diverse views without appearing addled, so conservative leaders take on the role of advocate for different ideas and the public get a say as to how they feel. That was how the Howard government worked and how the Abbott administration is working. The ABC had a division party while Mr Turnbull put forward the view, recently, that the laws regarding citizenship of terrorists needed to be commensurate with what the High Court could accept. Many government backbenchers were keen to simply allow a government minister to make a decision without regard to courts. Now there is water tight legislation, not party division, and ABC has a hangover following their premature celebration. And the ABC is finding it hard to be excited that the incompetent ALP is divided from abysmal leadership. Senior shadow ministers are mugging for the press

In the United States, a murderous racist bigot is giving his thoughts regarding his crime. His unoriginal thoughts are rooted in the Civil War and the racists who prospered under the confederate flag since. On this day in 1964, KKK killed three civil rights workers. In 2005, one man was convicted for the murders. Forward thinking Obama has regressed the US to 1964. Obama has the US being beaten up in a cold war where regional powers China and Russia have a disproportionate say in how the world is run, and domestically, Democrat style racism dating back to the Civil War. All that is needed to make it complete is some George Wallace figure to stand up for the confederate flag on top of the capitol building in South Carolina. 
From 2014
If it had happened to a rich journalist there would be an outcry. It involves several people being investigated by royal commissions or corruption investigating bodies like the ICAC. And the silence is telling. Older journalists who are conservative have sidestepped it artfully. Tim Blair referred it to senior News corp editors who later jumped ship. More than a few NSW Premiers have jumped or been pushed as the issue approached them. I approached Barry O'Farrell after his election win in '11, and now with 9 months to go to the NSW government facing re-election, there is little hope that my issue will ever be addressed. 

A politicised public service have corruptly opposed resolution of my issue, and government are not in a position to oppose public service. So, I have correctly forwarded my issue to a royal commission and their officers have negligently handled it. Government cannot intervene as the royal commission is independent. However, a minister could responsibly address issues surrounding the primary one. I have lost my career and my home and been isolated by the corruption. I am innocent. At worst, I'm a whistleblower. At best, those opposing me are inept and show a depraved indifference to my welfare. 

My life is not inconsequential. I insist that elected officials act responsibly. I stand by my actions.

Queen Vashti Deposed
This is what happened during the time of Xerxes, the Xerxes who ruled over 127 provinces stretching from India to Cush: 2 At that time King Xerxes reigned from his royal throne in the citadel of Susa, 3 and in the third year of his reign he gave a banquet for all his nobles and officials. The military leaders of Persia and Media, the princes, and the nobles of the provinces were present.

4 For a full 180 days he displayed the vast wealth of his kingdom and the splendor and glory of his majesty. 5 When these days were over, the king gave a banquet, lasting seven days, in the enclosed garden of the king's palace, for all the people from the least to the greatest who were in the citadel of Susa....

3 Then Peter said, "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4Didn't it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn't the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God...."

Morning

"For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth."
Amos 9:9
Every sifting comes by divine command and permission. Satan must ask leave before he can lay a finger upon Job. Nay, more, in some sense our siftings are directly the work of heaven, for the text says, "I will sift the house of Israel." Satan, like a drudge, may hold the sieve, hoping to destroy the corn; but the overruling hand of the Master is accomplishing the purity of the grain by the very process which the enemy intended to be destructive. Precious, but much sifted corn of the Lord's floor, be comforted by the blessed fact that the Lord directeth both flail and sieve to his own glory, and to thine eternal profit.
The Lord Jesus will surely use the fan which is in his hand, and will divide the precious from the vile. All are not Israel that are of Israel; the heap on the barn floor is not clean provender, and hence the winnowing process must be performed. In the sieve true weight alone has power. Husks and chaff being devoid of substance must fly before the wind, and only solid corn will remain.
Observe the complete safety of the Lord's wheat; even the least grain has a promise of preservation. God himself sifts, and therefore it is stern and terrible work; he sifts them in all places, "among all nations"; he sifts them in the most effectual manner, "like as corn is sifted in a sieve"; and yet for all this, not the smallest, lightest, or most shrivelled grain, is permitted to fall to the ground. Every individual believer is precious in the sight of the Lord, a shepherd would not lose one sheep, nor a jeweller one diamond, nor a mother one child, nor a man one limb of his body, nor will the Lord lose one of his redeemed people. However little we may be, if we are the Lord's, we may rejoice that we are preserved in Christ Jesus.

Evening

"Straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him."
Mark 1:18

When they heard the call of Jesus, Simon and Andrew obeyed at once without demur. If we would always, punctually and with resolute zeal, put in practice what we hear upon the spot, or at the first fit occasion, our attendance at the means of grace, and our reading of good books, could not fail to enrich us spiritually. He will not lose his loaf who has taken care at once to eat it, neither can he be deprived of the benefit of the doctrine who has already acted upon it. Most readers and hearers become moved so far as to purpose to amend; but, alas! the proposal is a blossom which has not been knit, and therefore no fruit comes of it; they wait, they waver, and then they forget, till, like the ponds in nights of frost, when the sun shines by day, they are only thawed in time to be frozen again. That fatal to-morrow is blood-red with the murder of fair resolutions; it is the slaughter-house of the innocents. We are very concerned that our little book of "Evening Readings" should not be fruitless, and therefore we pray that readers may not be readers only, but doers, of the word. The practice of truth is the most profitable reading of it. Should the reader be impressed with any duty while perusing these pages, let him hasten to fulfil it before the holy glow has departed from his soul, and let him leave his nets, and all that he has, sooner than be found rebellious to the Master's call. Do not give place to the devil by delay! Haste while opportunity and quickening are in happy conjunction. Do not be caught in your own nets, but break the meshes of worldliness, and away where glory calls you. Happy is the writer who shall meet with readers resolved to carry out his teachings: his harvest shall be a hundredfold, and his Master shall have great honour. Would to God that such might be our reward upon these brief meditations and hurried hints. Grant it, O Lord, unto thy servant!

=== Message ===

===

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)
