Consider these recent truths
It is apparent that ANTIFA and BLM riots, defund the police and COVID crises were confected to dog whistle Democrat support and antagonise conservatives. At the same time, Tech oligarchs exploited social media and the internet more broadly. This time last year, a browser of mine refused to allow me to access my MAGAbook account as it identified the site as being 'unsafe.' Think about what that intrusion means. MAGABook is a FB competitor. I would later be booted off FB, after I'd not posted for awhile but had been using it to access my internet history. The excuse for taking all my FB data since 2007 despite my postings being sparse and not politically related, following Jan 6th 2021, was because `I had already been marked a long time earlier. My online shop had been sabotaged so that I could not sell any of my books. My youtube account had been shadow banned and only videos thought to embarrass me were visible to the public.

In 1627, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth Navy had its greatest and last victory in the Battle of Oliwa. In 1660, at Gresham College, twelve men, including Christopher Wren, Robert Boyle, John Wilkins, and Sir Robert Moray decided to found what is later known as the Royal Society. In 1666, at least 3,000 men of the Scottish Royal Army led by Tam Dalyell of the Binns defeated about 900 Covenanter rebels in the Battle of Rullion Green. In 1785, The Treaty of Hopewell was signed. In 1811, Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73, premiered at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig.

In 1893, New Zealand became the first country in which women vote in a national election. In 1895, the first American automobile race took place over the 54 miles from Chicago's Jackson Park to Evanston, Illinois. Frank Duryea won in approximately 10 hours.

From 2013
The left are crowing at being able to drown people who are desperate and poor. They call it compassion. In order to achieve their aim, they needed to attack Australia's foreign relations with Indonesia and China. A highly partisan ABC have taken the lead as an opposition since the ALP collapsed in its popularity. Fairfax polls were produced showing it to be ALP Christmas time. But, it is still early days. The ALP are not popular. ABC journalists are not competent and the improvement benefits of a conservative government have not been hammered home .. or away. NSW State government has been unfairly criticised. Bolt has pointed his finger of balance. But despite Bolt wanting to see the ALP make one good decision, anywhere, they stubbornly resist.
The threat to label a child for not attending a museum is obscene. Education committees agonise over how to give a child a broad liberal education. But it is parents that make the best decisions. A system might be very bad, but few would notice as the parents do what they do. ALP failed Australia with its attempt at Gonski reform. Liberals are setting it right. Maybe some programs will have to be cut. But that will be a good thing. No essential program will be cut. The worst thing that will happen is that teachers will be forced to do what they are paid to do. Something that has never fussed the ABC.
There is a rumour that Tanya Plibersek will roll Shorten over an allegation of sexual assault. I had predicted it would be Jason Clare. Shorten's bad decision making seems to be geared to making it easier to roll him. The allegation is premature if that were the intention, because for drama reasons Clare would need to assert himself with less than a year to go to an election. But Tanya Plibersek may want to be the incompetent that gets toppled, if Shorten is incapable of being merely incompetent. Remember, none of the ALP have shown ability on any issue.
There is a need to cut and control spending. It is untenable that our children be forced to live worse than we do, to pay for our comforts. Or worse, to be indebted to people who do not celebrate freedom, liberty or equality. Yet the ALP in Australia, and Democrats in the US threaten exactly that. The Australian federal budget cuts were modest, but they must get bigger the longer they are delayed. Meanwhile, extremist leftwing organisations like the ABC, challenged to cut their fingernails with 5%, are cutting off their own limbs and refusing to do core services. Tonight, the second last 7:30 report in NSW was dedicated to opposing Liberal government policy on selling assets to pay for infrastructure. But that is what good government does. It is not the role of good government to maintain pricey services and not build infrastructure.
Frightbats, proud of their efforts to hurt and abuse decent people in triumph of the left, have a party in which they claim to drink the tears of some of their victims. Poet Ben Pobjie defends his abuse of Sean Abbott and Tony Abbott, but fails to account for it. Such rudeness is inexcusable, but mean and small. Meanwhile in the US the meme of white racism is resulting in riots and death. The abuses of the left are not responsible behaviour.
A new report is out describing how Clive Palmer initiated his own political demise by attacking China, apparently illegally. Two jihadist males being tried in an Australian Court refuse to stand for the judge. This threatens many and suggests intimidation. Before it goes much further, contempt of court rulings should settle it. It works with non jihadists too.
The tragic death of Phil Hughes has not been publicly resolved yet. The public will not move on until they are allowed. But a tragic death like this, lamentable and sad, is also a cultural asset. Twelve cricketers have died as a result of their play on the field. Including the Prince of Wales in 1751.
- "Here lies poor Fred who was alive and is dead,
- Had it been his father I had much rather,
- Had it been his sister nobody would have missed her,
- Had it been his brother, still better than another,
- Had it been the whole generation, so much better for the nation,
- But since it is Fred who was alive and is dead,
- There is no more to be said!"
For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
Today Cam's article "Misguided, not terrorists" quotes Seyit "It is time that we take a responsible approach to the issue and reduce the risk of feeding into the right-wing and racist elements in society, which has seen a sudden increase in supporters in the past two years in Australia"
The issue of todays's article is related to a refugee who burned a bank in Springvale, critically injuring people as he set himself on fire after not getting welfare benefits he felt entitled to. Terrorism or not, is it acceptable behaviour for the faith? It harms Islamic Australian relations when entitlement trumps reason and the safety of innocent others. It brings Islam into disrepute.
IPA Review (Nov 2016) features a Georgina Downer article “The High Cost of Populism” on Populist governments threatening trade and prosperity. Downer naively compares President elect Trump’s rhetoric with Pauline Hanson’s policies and makes wrong conclusions. Populism does threaten prosperity, as ALP leader Shorten has demonstrated with over three years of preventing necessary cuts to spending. There is no benefit to Australia for Shorten to do so. The benefit to Shorten is that an ABCC does not examine his past union dealings. Australia is paying a high price to get an ABCC because of Shorten’s opposition and Nick Xenophon Party’s control of the senate. Trump is promising something different to Hanson. Trump is promising to tear up bad deals and replace them with good deals. With good deals everyone wins. With bad deals nobody does. NAFTA is a dog’s breakfast thanks to the ‘leadership’ of Obama. By way of contrast, Hanson is hostile to foreign trade. Hanson and Trump do not compare. Australia wants to export sugar. US farmers want to export sugar too. There is room for both with the right deal.
From 2017
Don't give up on hope. A Harvard professor believes many ADHD cases are fraudulent. Donald Trump is draining the swamp. A radical justice group is calling for human rights for worst case offenders. Possibly the death sentence is preferable? Corporal punishment? A 20 yo Australian, born to Somalian refugees, has been arrested for wanting to carry out a terrorist hit. Many are wondering how the Australian was radicalised. It was probably because of unhinged schooling and media. Not everyone responds that way.
The lawyer that told Dan Andrews the East West Link contract was not worth the paper it was written on, but it was in fact $1.2 billion, has been made a judge in Victoria's highest court. In Honduras, conservative government has raised the standard of living, but the government is being beaten at election by a left wing tv compere who claims the government had been corruptly raising the standard of living. Senator James Paterson had released a discussion paper before the end of SSM vote on protections needed moving forward. That should have been part of bilateral discussion during the election. It is needed.
We have hope. It is incumbent on us to win back the freedom denied us. And to protect that freedom. We will do that democratically. We will take back our legislature. We will get our courts to return to protecting our constitution.
I have lost everything several times. And yet here I am. Behind me is an Australian flag and a MAGA cap. On my MAGA cap is an American flag. I will die, one day. But, I pledge allegiance to the flag (of Australia and) the United States of America. And to the republics for which they stand. One nation. Indivisible. Under God. With liberty, and justice, for all.
We are being lied to. But not by everyone. Our nations and their justice machinery are not broken, but damaged. Things are bad, but they are supposed to be bad, rather than merely breaking. We can't give up. We must reject the liars, and remove them from public office, and prosecute them lawfully. Things can get better, but we must persevere or risk losing hope. We must not fight the Devil by playing the Devil's game. Rather we must resist the Devil by being free. There is no law against doing what is right. Their utter depravity kills us. They target us and they seek to restrain us. But while the greatest among us a hundred years ago has died, their legacy has not. That which we are, we are. Lockdowns were ineffective in dealing with COVID. Effective medication has been denied whole populations. Herd immunity will prevail. Fraud deleteriously affected recent elections around the world. But, Democracy will prevail. Our oppressors will pass. For us to win, we must assert our freedoms. For us to lose, we must willingly surrender our freedoms forever. Our children will have to pay back our debt. We must sacrifice now so that they can. That means telling truth to power. That means pointing up when when some get confused and lose their way. Stand by the one who sacrificed their pension and freedoms to speak out. Prosecute the ones forgiven by a debauched and self interested administration. Vote for those who help you exercise your freedom. Don't wait for free speech. Exercise free speech.

How did #FakeNews predict a blue wave from 16.7% of counties favouring Biden? How did they measure voter fraud? How come #FakeNews is now unaware of voter fraud? Is it now the case that Democrat tactics are to force SCOTUS to make a decision so they can then claim SCOTUS is compromised?
The evidence of Fraud in the 2020 election, so widespread is harmful for democracy. It must be addressed. It was not solely the 2020 election, apparently, but had failed in 2016 after Trump over performed then, as he has now. Trump was so good in 2020, that the fraud became evident. It also highlights the possibility that voter fraud extended to 2006 and underpinned Obama's rise. As did big tech collusion. Recently, every one of my browsers would not let me access MAGAbook, citing privacy concerns.
We know who voted for Trump. We saw them. Queues of people with hats and signs and cheering Trump in their thousands all over USA. We have not seen people in great numbers who supported Biden. There is no evidence they have ever existed outside of a riot or a hissy fit by a Democrat partisan election official.
I watch Dan Bongino on Rumble and heard him on his Rumble cast say Trump should have addressed disloyal swamp creatures sooner. I disagree with it, and might have egg all over my face soon for saying so, but following is my reasoning. Trump has temporised on facing some of the swamp, not hesitated. Late last year, Trump said he was pulling troops out of Syria and was criticised for it severely. But then an ISIS leader stood up and special forces ran him to committing suicide rather than be taken. The operation, a sting masterminded by Trump had not included significant figures within his administration, and sparked a resignation of National Security Adviser Bolton, who had not been in the loop. Imagine the resistance if Trump had opposed more? But now, if Trump politically survives this, the swamp is exposed and has no support from conservatives. I'm reminded of former Premier of Victoria Jeff Kennett who had led a successful conservative government and had a crash or crash through election which he lost. Had Kennett won, he had clear air for a long time, but having lost Victoria is where the US will be if Biden is allowed to cheat a win.
Trump cycle has it Trump is on his knees, before ... Media is cheering expected partisan court decisions to not support inquiry into voting fraud. However, they overstate the meaning of the shortfalls. The Trump campaign to have their electoral win restored was never going to be straightforward. They have the evidence. It points to multiple elections and undermines the credibility of US Democracy. Ultimately, aspects of it will be decided by SCOTUS. We do not yet know how SCOTUS will decide, or even what exact evidence they will face. But we know the evidence is substantial, and in an effort to suppress the will of conservative resistance, media are claiming that the evidence is not substantive and so the evidence is yet to be addressed. Maybe there is a good reason for a CIA asset being deployed to fraudulently control the US election. Let us hear what it is.
It is apparent that Dems committed fraud to steal the 2020 election. They may well have done similar in 2016. In 2016, Fox declared Pennsylvania early to HRC. The demand was made for Trump to concede. Trump won in 2016, but it surprised the establishment that did similar in their voter suppression as they have done in 2020. HRC had organised a victory party, but blessed marching vagina instead. Even her book did not say what happened. Trump has been very good at mobilising ordinary, decent Americans to support him in numbers greater than any GOP ever. Trump does not court race, or gender, like his racist, bigoted opposition have. Yet Trump has extraordinary minority support for a GOP, possibly the highest since Eleanor Roosevelt courted the Black vote as her husband exploited them. The Dem voting pattern and issues echo the Obama wins too. How long have Dems been using these fraudulent methods to obtain votes? Did they use them to bodgy the 2006 mid terms? It is not that the mysterious support of vapour for Dems is so clearly fraudulent, but, other than violent rioters, and #FakeNews, where is their support, really? How come there is no policy platform for Democrats? Why does Big Tech have to censor the truth? How many millions of Trump supporting votes have been given to Biden? The corruption is so apparent, and so pervasive, that if Trump concedes 2020, he will be conceding all elections that follow, and the flame of liberty will be extinguished in America.
===Lt. General McInerney: US servicemen died defending election integrity
https://gnews.org/603684/
Retired United States Air Force Lieutenant General Thomas McInerney went on WVW-TV exposed that there were US service members who died from the operation of seizing a server (behind Dominion voting machine) in Frankfurt.
Key points from 42:00 to 47:05 of that interview:
- The ‘Kraken’ that Sidney Powell referred to the 305th military intelligence battalion
- Confirming a previous report that the US Special Forces did seize a server in Frankfurt
- The server was in a CIA facility and there were US servicemen killed in that operation
- The President employed the ‘Kraken’ because he could not trust the DOJ, FBI nor CIA as they are on the deep state’s side.
Transcript from 42:00 to 47:05
General:
In all of these, we have not seen any footprints of the DOJ, of the the FBI nor the CIA on the friendly side. It has been on the deep state side.
Host:
Let me stop you there General. You just said something very interesting. You just said that who has just opened up the Kraken and you just describe what the “Kraken” was. We all know the term because of Sidney Powell using it. You just said what it is. Can you back up on that?
General:
Yes. Sidney got the term “Kraken” because it is the nickname of the 305th military intelligence battalion. And that has been her source along with other sources that Mary and I know about but we don’t want to talk about and so we’re getting different sources that are relaying this.
But the important thing is they identified. Now get this. They identified, China, Iran and Russia as being involved in this and manipulating the vote.
In addition, the US Special Forces command seizes a server farm and fight for Germany because they were sending these data from those five states or six states through the internet to Spain and into Frankfurt for Germany. Special operational force seized those, that facility so they have those servers. They know all these data and they are providing.
Host:
Did that go down without incident by the way? Did that seizure go down without incident?
General:
I heard it that it didn’t go down without incident. I haven’t been able to verify it. I want to be careful in that. It’s just coming out. But I understand my initial report is that there were US soldiers killed in that operation. Now, that was a CIA operation.
So that’s a very worrisome thing. Did that occur because of what Mary and I and Alan were notifying on the Sunday and the Monday in different networks that this was going to happen, that they were using HAMMER and SCORECARD. And so they decided to bounce it overseas so the server farm that HAMMER and SCORECARD were using in United State couldn’t be used. I don’t know that.
In any case, it makes it more vulnerable because when you start to moving that kind of data overseas other people look out.
Host:
You are saying there was a CIA facility and that was the server taken from by the special force was a CIA facility in Germany?
General:
That’s correct, Frankfurt Germany.
Now, we have all this information. General Flynn of course people must realize, was a senior military intelligence officer in the US commands as a defense intelligence agency, he is a career intelligence officer he knows this backwards and forward. And from my experience in the cloud business. This was a trivial operation relatively speaking but the magnitude because so many people were involved, so many people like General Flynn mentioned, the Democrat person saw this are coming forward.
But what we are doing? We are competing with the constitution and 14th of December date for the electoral college. And why? Because we have all these information and we know that not only did we have the deep state in the executive that President Trump had to fight, we also had the legislature, where we have Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Schumer all of those people were involved in this. They were involved in the Russian hoax, they involved in this coup d’etat. But we also had the judiciarer, Judge Sullivan who was General Flynn’s judge outed himself on this.
And so you have the compromise there and that’s why the 305th, the ‘Krackens’ were targeted and selected I believe, because the president could trust them. That’s why Chris Miller who is now the Acting Secretary of Defense and a former special operations hero, that’s why (Chris Miller) is the Secretary of Defense.

The Iran deal
Iran does not need nuclear power. She is one of the world’s richest oil producers. However sanctions levied on Iran for her funding international terrorism had seen Iran desperate to trade. Iranian peoples are suffering as a result of the regime’s terrorism support policy. It had been hoped the election of a so called moderate Ahmadinejad in 2005 would break the nexus of administration support of terror. Only it did not pan out that way.
China and Russia rely on Iranian oil. That means they have vested interests in keeping production and keeping Iran happy. Although for a time, the terms of sanctions allowed them to favourably trade oil for goods.
Ahmadinejad claimed the need for nuclear power was to protect the environment from AGW. The size of the proposed reactors was far larger than that needed for energy production. The only possible use was to make nuclear weapons.
Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action brokered with Russia during the Syrian crisis. The plan was to prevent weapons grade uranium being produced. Inspections were to be key to ensuring the fidelity to plan. It became apparent, under Obama that there were no conditions under which Iran could be described as non compliant.
When Trump became President, it is alleged he negotiated to censure Iran over terror, which was considered against the terms of the treaty. More recently, Trump has denied recertification of Iran’s compliance of the plan, on the grounds Iran would not allow inspectors near military installations.
3AW interview with a gender neutral academic. Neil Mitchell owns the academic, who admits they have not heard of a "Ruckman" and would not know what to call it. After a few moments thought, the academic suggests "Ruck?" The academic has not done their job and does not know the etymology of "Man" which dates back to Sanskrit. Neither does the academic know that Mantle is not a gendered word. Apparently the academic has only researched the words it wants to change. The argument goes it will lessen violence. That theory has not been tested.
The US Senate is investigating a Dem who has confessed already to what they are investigating. Will they discover the truth?
For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
Victoria's ALP begin predictably, by cancelling a project on infrastructure but wanting to keep the federal money meant for infrastructure. The Victorian ALP are free to squander what they will that is Victorian. However, Mr Abbott prudently planned to make sure that if the plan derailed, the money would not go there. Minorities will run the Victorian senate, but it is too soon to know how many. Greens lose in poll that should have favoured them, with ALP benefiting from the corrupt union campaign. Greens had anticipated 18% of the vote, but received only 11%. Meanwhile the LNP results showed they lost long time core supporters. If you stand for nothing you will fall for anything. They had been a competent government, without being inspired. Andrews, speaking on the ABC Monday, said he could not work as an adult with the federal government. He said they have to be blamed for imaginary health and education cuts first.
Federally, fall out from the Victorian election has highlighted the ALP have no plan or policy. They block cuts, but could not replace those with any savings. They created the anticipated $650 billion deficit which could well become more. Clearly the narrative of what had happened in the campaign is wrong. The narrative has it that independent peoples stood up for the CFMEU in support of the ALP. But the fact is that the LNP were right to point out that the ALP were too close to the CFMEU. What saved the ALP was the slush funds and the partisan press who were complicit with covering up the corruption. But Shorten, who has no policy, blames Mr Abbott for the loss of Victoria despite the polling extending two years prior to Mr Abbott being PM. The LNP is made to look bad by the partisan press, but they have done nothing wrong and have worked as an inspired unit. The senate blockage is related to ALP having control prior to July and Palmer's PUP blocking things after.
Palmer has real power and he abuses it. He met with Lambie. The outcome of their discussions are not yet known, but they will probably favour the ALP.
People usually have a negative view of politics generally, and the detail becomes too hard to scan. They don't really care about things, but feel the ALP are good for spending money on workers and LNP are good for small business. Which isn't true, but which the partisan press portrays consistently. The ALP are corrupt and negligent and policy less. One example of ALP red tape is highlighted by the fact that Rinehart had to make over 3000 applications to open a mine. The time delays and cost mean Australia is not profitable to mine compared to most other nations. That means that everyone, workers, small business and big business suffer. The only ones who profit are environmental activists.
Speaking of extraordinary indulgence, we have an abysmal Governor General trying to be sacked for being partisan, and egged on by irresponsible and unprofessional journalists. PM Abbott is unlikely to sack the fool, as it would carry poison over to the next appointment. It is only a few months. And then, I would love it were the GG to face questions, and possibly serve time, for obstruction of justice re Heiner.
Another indulgence is Gonski. A woman in the NT is knitting wool sourced from her vagina, which she presumably inserts. It is performance art, paid by the tax payer via SBS. Gonski is a similar indulgence which the ALP and press are demanding. No program cut from not honouring Gonski will adversely affect a child. The only result is teachers doing what they are already paid to do. Principals of public schools, taking the lead of the GG, are speaking out and lying about what Gonski cuts mean. which isn't to say that education cannot improve. Centralising education can mean centralising bad practice, as the common core experience in the US shows. But there is an opportunity to expand best practice too.
In 1981, Inex-Adria Aviopromet Flight 1308, a McDonnell Douglas MD-80, crashes in Corsica, killing all 180 people on board.
