Sat 2nd January 2021 Current Affairs

We have a good idea as to the path Trump is walking to retain the white house. It is not martial law. It does not involve SCOTUS. Trump is keen not to hurt the union or the constitution. Trump is on his knees, losing unnecessary fights which continue to show that Deep State have had control of the union for a long time and many of the levers of power are not functioning. It is necessary Trump fight these battles, but not necessary he win them. It is not certain Trump will win. But, the cabal have been losing badly with each 'win' they get. The SCOTUS decision of the Texas lawsuit is a case in point. The election was stolen. The evidence is clear. SCOTUS does not need the evidence, the people have it. Even as Big tech and media deny it, the people have seen it and made a decision regarding it. Trump wanted a stimulus for COVID and Democrats delayed it and forced it into a pork barrel. It does not matter if Trump refuses to sign it. The people have seen the Democrats delaying the bill for political advantage as people suffered. The people have also seen that the pork barrels are not meant for them. 

American people are not impressed that Democrats are trying to steal the Georgia senate run offs. They are not impressed with the Democrat candidates. They are not impressed with polling that shows a narrative mainstream media peddle, but which does not reflect reality. People are not impressed with the intimidation of Kemp. People are expecting Kraken will expose attempted fraud in the run off. The mail in fraud is not going to impress the people. The fraudulent votes for Biden will not transfer to support for him if he wins. 

We know Trump is the most popularly re elected President ever. We know Trump is gaining support among minorities as well as regular aspirational voters. What we don't yet know is when Biden and the cabal will face justice for what they have done. But we know Trump is temporising so as to not embarrass SCOTUS. So, the steps are, Trump will secure a win via state legislatures. Then SCOTUS will be brought in to deal with the fraudsters. In all likelihood, Trump does not want another special council in the wings of his 2021 inauguration.

COVID 19 has been inflated by hysterics for the primary purpose of controlling the US elections in 2020. It allowed states to declare states of emergency and suspend normal rules while a cabal engaged in voter fraud. Trump has produced a few vaccines but the cabal need COVID to remain so they can prevent a free and fair election in Georgia for the senate positions. However, in order to achieve what the cabal has, things have had to be sacrificed, including reputations and people's lives. Not all of which are in USA. 

COVID is not worse than a bad flu. The IPA (Institute of Public Affairs in Australia) have researched the death rate at 800 per million, or 0.08%. A bad flu might be 0.1%. However, hysterics have reported death rates as 20% or more. COVID is particularly deadly to the sick and elderly, unlike SARS which afflicted the young and sick. However, elderly people under COVID-19 have longer life expectancies than before. And, older, sick people have always died in large numbers. It is easy to inflate numbers of natural attrition for elderly. A healthy person wearing a mask has no real defence from COVID, and cannot transmit it. Children are not particularly susceptible to COVID. Yet children have been prevented from going to school, and businesses have been closed and treatments have been denied the sick so COVID hysteria can allow rules to be suspended during elections. 

Some people have been very sick from COVID and died. That happens with the flu too, every year. However, there have been treatments for COVID denied the sick by bureaucrats. At first, the treatments were declared as counter to research. But such research was debunked when it was observed it had not been rigorous but set to fail. It is hard to know the exact number who have died from such neglect, but as of June 2020, statistics showed deaths from COVID were some 8 times more likely in Democrat run states. While it is possible that COVID is more virulent against those with left wing values, whose personal hygiene is suspect, the more likely explanation is that bad management is the cause. Herd immunity is still the only long term solution, possibly achieved through vaccine, but in the mean times, treatment is available and cheap. 

In Victoria, in Australia, following the first wave, elimination had temporarily been achieved. However it had been bungled by Victorian Premier Dan Andrews and extraordinary measures were brought to bear, ruling out treatment. Some one hundred people died as a direct result, but the Victorian Premier was able to declare a state of emergency and a state of disaster and introduce a Chinese style curfew on movement. Such virtue signalling was necessary for the pre election pre text in the United states. Australians dying so US peoples could be bound in chains. Similar tragedy ensued in Europe and elsewhere. Notably, poor nations with access to cheap treatments were largely unaffected by the crisis. 

Will there ever be justice for those who paid high prices for COVID hysteria so a cabal could rig an election?

A former and a current CIA chief used their offices to create a fake news attack on then candidate Donald Trump. They did not use, apparently, CIA resources, but private ones which they then had given to FBI and state department as bona fide CIA intelligence. Two former FBI chiefs then colluded to create fake investigations to persecute the candidate, and later, President Trump. The actual application of the CIA to USA operations is illegal. Those chiefs and a few underlings, sponsored by a cabal of Democrats and big tech, have orchestrated crisis after crisis in the United States, and world. And DOJ chief Barr sees nothing wrong? 

It is apparent the spying on Trump prior to 2016 election, and the subsequent attempt to remove him from office was baseless and corrupt. Yet is has become very hard to say so, with FB, Twitter and Google acting to restrict substantive evidence. Mainstream media print lies, but don't retract when corrected. Why did Fox news give North Carolina early, in error, to HRC in 2016? Why in 2020 did Fox news also give North Carolina early? How did pollsters measure fraudulent votes before they were cast? Why were pollsters so wrong about Trump popularity? 

We know that FBI began investigating Trump before the 2016 election. We know it was based on a lie that had not been started by bona fide security channels but was initiated from HRC campaign and shepherded by senior CIA and FBI executives. What does Barr know that allows him to claim what he does?

Trump is fighting to get re elected after he was voted back in. Nothing is certain. I am confident he will walk down one of the roads which sees him inaugurated again on 20th January 2021. I am also certain there are very bad people fighting for their lives as criminals to deny him. The rumour surrounding Governor Kemp does not have to be true. The possibility that Kemp's daughter's significant other was murdered to threaten Kemp illustrates the stakes. If voter fraud is real, and has been detailed, imagine the breadth of the corruption involved in independently and multiply, conning voter authorities. It was not merely using COVID hysteria to change laws to allow voter fraud. It was not merely using trucks to carry fake ballots across state lines. It was not merely opening voting machines to hostile governments. It was not merely foreign governments compromising legislature in significant committees. It is not merely covering up for the corrupt activities. It is not merely tasking tech giants to sideline debate. It is all of that, and more. In order to maintain the lie, what keeps the corrupt pollsters in Georgia in line, and waiting for more? What keeps corrupt judges from respecting the law and the constitution? If the Media editors are corrupt, are the journalists corrupt too? All of them? When was it that not one capable, honest journalist worked at CNN? When was it that entire support structures of Facebook and Google would countenance the deception they perpetrate? 

I can tell you I have no evidence that suggests there is an honest journalist at CNN. NYT, WaPo, LA Times etc etc. I have no evidence that suggests FB or Google are not part of a cabal. My interactions suggest gross incompetence among judges, police and authorities. I see a depraved indifference to the welfare of ordinary citizens as educational authorities persecute children who don't toe their lines, or repeat lies of convenience. 

Allow me to throw some truth bombs illustrating the issues. COVID-19 is not as bad as a bad 'flu in terms of mortality, and the worst affected, elderly people, are living longer now than they were a year ago. Masks do not help healthy people fight COVID. AGW is a lie, and the world's temperatures have been rising since the end of the ice age, but seem more stable at the moment. Carbon Dioxide is plant food, a trace particle in our atmosphere and necessary for life on Earth. Fracking provides cheap, effective gas. Solar power is inefficient. Wind power is poorly implemented, killing birds. Nuclear power is safe, and something Iran should never have. It is ok to pray in school, or in church, or in public. It is ok to swear on a bible, or talk to God. It is not racist to ignore race. It is racist to promote race. Publicly funded wildlife protection is a failure, but farming is incredibly successful. No farm animal is an endangered species. Kneeling in support of racism is not healthy. Standing for God and country can be motivating. Donald Trump got over 74 million votes from people we knew existed, and saw at rallies. Biden's votes did not seem to come from any known source, and he is not as popular as Obama was. Obama belongs in jail for the Russia Hoax and his work to undermine the 2020 election too. Obama started a new cld war because he was deficient in foreign policy. Trump has miraculously achieved what Obama could not, in Israel, NK, Iran, Syria and the United States.

There are two side stories to election fraud that I'm surprised no one is talking about. Biden in 2020 and Kevin Rudd in 2007. Both situations had had tremendous voter suppression played by mainstream media. Biden was too weak relative to Trump, and so the fraud was obvious because too much ground had to be made up. Kevin Rudd was aided by Malcolm Turnbull's betrayal of the Liberal Party of Australia, resulting from the failure of Peter Costello to campaign for the leadership from Mr Howard. But the media are ignoring corruption efforts by Biden and Rudd which they ought to question. 

With Joe Biden, he was VP and had special interests in Ukraine on 17th July 2014 when MH17 was shot down by Russian separatist forces. As the separatists reported the accident to Moscow, US signals intelligence picked up the chatter. The question has never been asked publicly, why was a civilian aircraft targeted? And, why was US signals intelligence so quick in intercepting that particular signal? The answer lies with Ukraine's problem with Russian separatists shooting down their military aircraft, killing many troops. Someone decided that Ukraine could paint their military aircraft with radio civilian identifiers. This trained the separatists to ignore civilian identifiers, and so tragedy resulted. Only the tragedy was not unexpected by Ukraine, who failed to warn Malaysia that Ukraine was a war zone. US signals intelligence were prepared to capitalise on the tragedy. Is the media protecting Biden and Ukraine from war crimes inquiry? 

In '07, Kevin Rudd bragged he had special contacts within Australian defence forces which would address problems he claimed Mr Howard had failed. One issue Rudd identified was Timor's rebel leader, Alfredo Reinado. Reinado had had some training in Australia and Rudd was convinced he could stop him where Howard had not. Soon, after Rudd became PM, on 11th February 2008, Reinado attempted to detain the Timorise leadership of Ramos-Horta and Gusmao, and was killed. It was soon called an assassination attempt. It looked like a bungled black ops which resulted in poisoning what had once been a good relationship between Australia and Timor. Had Kevin Rudd bungled the issue with a rushed black ops mission? My name is David Daniel Ball, and I'm here to help.

Who will be left for Democrats after Obama, Biden, HRC, Schiff, Warren and Pelosi are prosecuted for their Russia Collusion Hoax? What will be left of the FBI and DOJ after Mueller, Comey et al are prosecuted for their collusion? Dan Bongino discusses the explosive exposure of how Russia has had HRC emails from her illegal server in which HRC tried to deflect from her exposure by blaming President Trump. What of the powerful tech business allies of HRC who colluded to get Biden elected President? How will FB, Google, youtube and Twitter be affected? Will their CEO's escape jail time? What of CNN? NBCNews?, CBSNews? FoxNews? 

I'm waiting for delayed gratification. T45 may well be the greatest President USA has had, based on analysis of achievements to date. He fixed a broken economy. He achieved peace by not going to war. He commandeered initiative in science and tech. He worked for all constituents, not the corrupt few which his opponents focused on. 

Opposition to T45 has been substantially larger than for any previous President. The Russia Hoax dominated (swamped) his Presidency. Treasonous activity by tech giants and social elite have persecuted T45. Partly, that was at T45's behest because he was an outsider to Washington. Trump has walked a path others have not because opposition to outsiders is fierce. Including from within his own party, with RINO members part of the swamp. 

Trump won re-election in terms of votes cast in record numbers. The swamp is trying to steal it from him. The swamp are abusing legal avenues to prevent analysis of their illegal activity. What will happen when it is decided that has not worked? How many people will the swamp kill to protect their 'interests'? In order to protect the union, SCOTUS has not acted prematurely. It is up to state legislatures to do the right thing. How will RINO affect the outcome of those state legislature? Will RINO break the union to support the swamp?

Hey, Sasse and Kinzinger, you really are carnival barkers and self-promoting frauds.  I have an idea: why don't you answer the points raised in my piece about the violations of our Constitution -- Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 (see below)?  You both beat your chests about defending the Constitution, yet you're undermining it.  You're posturing.  You're simply Trump-haters.  But you're damaging the country and our electoral system.  Neither of you engage on substance.  You simply pose as moral superiors with self-righteous declarations.  Let's do it, boys.  Answer it (and not your staffs, you!)!  Let's see what you actually know about the framers, the ratification conventions, and the Constitution.

EXCLUSIVE: Fraudulent Georgia Ballots Were Addressed to Elections Consultant Dwight Brower – The Same Guy Who Reported the Fake Water Main Break and Then Terminated Election Whistleblower

Don't give up on hope. Victoria can be a modern state with a lean government making excellent decision that benefit her people. We just need to get rid of Dan Andrews and install Matthew Guy. On every issue Victorians care about, be it crime, cost of living, Infrastructure, or a thriving volunteer culture, the answer is to ditch the Dan Andrews government and install Matthew Guy. 

Problematically, Malcolm Turnbull is sucking oxygen away from state Liberals. Turnbull needs to keep promoting himself or be turfed. Turnbull should have been dumped after an abysmal showing at the Bennelong By Election. But the bedwetters are holding on in the hopes that holding to an awful leader will impress voters as ALP face by elections. Who is worse for Australia, Turnbull or Shorten? Turnbull is offering a 19 year old failed campaign on a referendum on a republic. The model to be used is the awful divisive campaign Turnbull hashed over SSM. And like SSM, opposition to a republic won't be given money or government support. But Turnbull needs to move forward. Otherwise Turnbull looks like he is dithering while he dithers. 

The movie Network with Peter Finch and Faye Dunaway is outstanding for illustrating a faithless view of the world. A world without God is a world in need of God. Full credit to the actors for portraying the Director's vision. It is also a writer's tour de force. Today's movies tend to multiple writers covering all dimensions, but in Network, only the sick left wing view of society is shown. God is invisible and people of faith have no vision and people of vision have no faith. I have seen a child preacher praising God with the same passion as Finch's Beale character, but the difference being the child had faith while Finch's character had nihilism. Because although a faithful person's exposition can sound absurd, it can be understood by the faithful, exactly as left winger's get nihilism. 

=== from 2016 ===
The December IPA Review is out and Daniel Wild wrote “Smothered by Nostalgia” on Yuval Levin’s “The fractured republic” about USA post Brexit. USA is divided into two camps looking back with nostalgia to times that will never come again. The thesis holds that the US right-wing long for the glory days of 1951 or 1979. The left look for 1965. According to thesis, USA is both very big government and very individualised without mediation of institutional assets that used to bridge the gap: Religion; Family; and extended community. It is a libertarian argument that is a straw dog covering a need for libertarianism. No sane right winger dreams of the glory days where a clapped out and corrupt Truman administration is just going to lose an election, or when a corrupt and clueless Carter is going to lose after one term. They want a few years after when Eisenhower was instituting the roads plan and on path to a crushing agenda setting win, or when Reagan would set USA on course to be the sole superpower. I’m not sure left wingers dream of the post assassination JFK days when Democrats hired a killer of MLK. But I can’t always be sure about the left. The USA has always been in terrible shape after a Democrat incumbency. Democrats attack cultural assets, they have to to set their agenda. There are many GOP who are disappointed with Trump. But Trump heads the GOP and will lead it. America is going to be very big soon, and her government is going to shrink big. That doesn’t mean we need libertarian ideals. And when Trump is successful, it won’t mean libertarians ‘won.’

An interesting side thought from the Wild article is to do with mediating government to the individual. It sounds like a totalitarian's dream. I called a mediating authority regarding busses on New Years Eve and they lied to me. Busses had been diverted from a bus stop as a planned mistake. They didn’t admit that, just saying nothing was wrong and they didn’t know what was happening. I had another similar experience post election when I contacted another mediating authority about pro-ALP election signs inappropriately placed. They lied for the ALP to cover them against liability. The very mechanism proposed is an apology for big government and corruption, something libertarians claim to oppose. Yet libertarians often seem to embrace their shadow. Maybe the extreme left is the god child of the libertarian after all. Conservatism is simply not that monolithic. Libertarians cannot become conservative merely by saying it is defined that way.


There is discussion on the Bolt Report Supporter's Group regarding trolls. Trolls are really easy to deal with when recognised. But members of the group are demanding that the trolls be booted. But booting is not the way of this group's administration. We do boot, and have blocked 3121 accounts and have 27,572 members. Many of the blocked accounts are accounts that were created to join this forum to be disruptive. Some just asked to be booted after they didn't know how to leave. It isn't admin's job to make sure you have a safe space to get along. You can defend yourself by blocking if you will. Please don't ask us to boot people because you think others need to be protected. As for one particular troll, allegedly a former ABC radio entity that allegedly retired to live in France. We don't know anything about who someone is by an account. People can be confident David Daniel Ball is who he says he is because he is a public figure who has run for federal, state and local elections and has verifiable public data about him. But the troll allegedly from the ABC tossing around opinions may merely be a jihadi sympathising taxi driver who failed to get two of his 'wives' recognised by Centrelink and has had to call them daughters instead. To deal with it, argue only on discussion topics. I promise you you will win. It will not address basic facts. It will throw up straw dogs. For example, it might say Shorten has not been convicted of a crime. Which is a reasonable statement. However, Shorten has never been demonstrated to be competent either. Name something Shorten has done that was good. Was achieving the second worst support for the ALP since WW2 (after Rudd's failure) a successful achievement? Even though he was only faced with the worst Liberal leader and deputy in the party's history?

Bad administration dithers. In the ancient sense of the word, to dither is tremble. It is a reaction, not controlled by thought or purpose. Malcolm Turnbull has an opportunity to give unions the leadership they deserve, and prevent the widespread endemic corruption which has sustained the ALP for decades. But will he do it? Maybe the union members want corrupt leadership? Maybe the poorest workers of the land want to be exploited by corrupt overlords. It is hard for Turnbull to know what to do. Maybe if Turnbull acts he will be criticised. The words used by the ALP in defence of corruption sound mean and strong. Turnbull promised to explain his actions. He never promised to explain inaction. Maybe an April election will save him from making a decision. Malcolm needs to look decisive. If only there was an issue that he could be decisive with and look good. 

For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
From 2014
The Greste case has changed direction with an Egyptian court giving him a retrial. They have decided that some of the evidence leading to his conviction of propaganda favouring the Muslim Brotherhood included personal photos and reports from other news agencies. Those pictures and reports were salient to his his guilt of propagandising .. he had been present in places where he misleading reported what was not news. But the charge resting specifically to him has been decided to be only for those reports he made with his news organisation. The problem is that news organisations have been lying in the Middle East for a long time. The world is ignorant of Israeli affairs, even as it is widely reported, for many reasons, which at times looks anti semitic. And so Greste doesn't have much room to stand, even as he has worked with good intentions. In Australia, unprofessionalism is accepted in journalism. But in Egypt people are upset that press lies have gotten people killed. Greste does not deserve the persecution. But he doesn't deserve to be called a journalist either. It is similar to a soldier who retires and takes up service with a third party security organisation. He is exposed and professionally compromised. He should be sent home. But then so should Jonathan Pollard. And while Egypt is faced with a question of statesmanship, so is the US. 

A bad ALP government tried to control the economy and superheated it, resulting in interest rates for home loans approaching twenty percent, resulting in real wage cuts of over twenty four percent over twelve years, resulting in shifting control of superannuation from responsible bodies to corrupt unions. That was a better government to the last ALP government which, over six years, trashed the Australian economy and left a debt legacy that our children will struggle to pay. The ALP is blocking needed reform which would address their irresponsible government activity. Shorten has made promises on becoming leader of how he would behave. He claimed he would make decisions based on national interest. But he hasn't. He has caved into populism. In the short term, he is getting kudos for strangling the government in the senate. But that will be shown to be illusory as an election nears when even the independents who vote ALP will risk voting to be reelected instead. Shorten has offered no alternatives to the policy he has blocked. He hasn't negotiated. Just as he failed to address Gillard's corrupt support for Slipper by declaring he hadn't heard what Gillard had said, he supported it, before knifing her and installing Rudd, Shorten again fails to act responsibly, preferring to hope that press kudos will cover up his policy free agenda. 


There is a reason why big spending ALP is policy free. It has to do with their electorates which are welfare rich zones of poverty. And if ALP government had its' way, everyone would be poor. According to journalists who are partisan in following the ALP, the reason why AirAsia flight 8501 crashed was global warming. The fact is it is safer to fly now than in previous years and fewer storms, so, how did global warming do the deed? France had fewer New Year car-b-ques than in previous years. Possibly because many of the responsible youths are playing in ISIL territory this year. Or, possibly because Gaia was wrath-ing upon an airplane instead. Sad, because the ALP could have really cornered those youth votes.

Over regulation seems to have had a driver fined with travelling 1 km/h over the limit. Their fine was quashed on examination. What would have happened had the conscientious police man not tried to match speed? What accident might have resulted at 61, which would not have happened at 60? What if drivers decided collectively they couldn't travel at the limit, but slower than the limit? It happened in Queensland, so maybe there was more to it. Maybe 'Butch' Cassidy worked for Clive Palmer and was trying to escape a ravenous dinosaur? I know what I dread more. 

A prominent former cricketer on ABC1 assures the viewer in a pre show advert that he would run through brick walls if Ricky Ponting had asked him. Neither play for Australia anymore, but it is doubtful the athletic achievement of running through brick walls would have done much for either career outside of a circus. Not even Gillard could have used that type of loyalty. But it is probable she demanded it. But it is that kind of loyalty which impresses about AGW believers. And one can only imagine what those brick walls have done to their minds. Al Gore has not helped those researchers stuck on ice, who will be unable to report on the warming world because they are stuck on ice. As is their rescuers. One thing is certain, it isn't leftists picking up the rubbish once the ship moves on.

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)

Editorials will appear in the "History in a Year by the Conservative Voice" series, starting with August, September, October, or at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/1482020262/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_dVHPub0MQKDZ4 The kindle version is cheaper, but the soft back version allows a free kindle version.
