While on the stolen election, someone has been doing some neat stuff with phone geolocation data.

Election Watchdog Finds 137,500 Ballots Unlawfully Trafficked In Wisconsin (2 Apr)

Ballot trafficking is an activity in which absentee ballots and votes are solicited, sometimes in exchange for money or other valuables. They are then collected through a process called “harvesting” and delivered to drop boxes by intermediaries (someone other than the voter), who are often paid a per-ballot fee by partisan actors.
…
Based on his 15-month study of election practices in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Michigan, Phillips estimates that at least 4.8 million votes were trafficked nationally.

According to the True the Vote report, 242 intermediaries in metro Atlanta made 5,668 stops at drop boxes during elections in late 2020. In its report, TTV said it obtained 4 million minutes of drop box video surveillance tape that helped to document its Georgia findings.

“Many of the traffickers we spoke with do not recognize what they are doing as being a problem,” TTV spokesperson Catherine Engelbrecht said.

The study found that in Arizona, 202 intermediaries made 4,282 separate visits to ballot boxes in Maricopa County.

Biden “won” WI by 20,682 votes btw.

The use of drop boxes lets vote buying work, since the buyers could get someone to fill out a ballot, or even just sign a blank ballot, then hand over the money. Then the buyer could anonymously drop those votes into a drop box. Previously the problem with buying votes is the voter has to be trusted to vote as they were paid to do, which is hard to verify if they have to front up in person to a polling place. Given the flood of money from the likes of Soros and Steyer it seems likely that outright vote buying would have been affordable for the Dems.

Distance Australia to China = 4,200km

sydney to hong kong is 7,371 km

7,371 km is a Barnsey.

I get about a Barnsey for every 140 gal of diesel.

Good piece on origins of Wuhan Flu in, of all places, Vanity Fair:

…After Bloom described his research, the Zoom meeting became “extremely contentious,” he wrote. Andersen leapt in, saying he found the preprint “deeply troubling.” If the Chinese scientists wanted to delete their sequences from the database, which NIH policy entitled them to do, it was unethical for Bloom to analyze them further, he claimed. And there was nothing unusual about the early genomic sequences in Wuhan. Instantly, Nielsen and Andersen were “yelling at each other,” Bloom wrote, with Nielsen insisting that the early Wuhan sequences were “extremely puzzling and unusual.” Andersen—who’d had some of his emails with Fauci from early in the pandemic publicly released through FOIA requests—leveled a third objection….

It’s entirely feasible fresh opinions are being subdued by the weird personal dynamic on display.

Don’t be a Barnsey… anyhow, have a Barnsey.

I am sure as shit I have been sold counterfeit Havana Jewels before.

Maybe the Comancheros can call me Marathon Man.

Let’s see a Rudd era bugman *pOlIcY gUrU* stand up for the working class and actually demand the repeal of fuel, alcohol and tobacco excise…

Nope, their (ALP) base is now sybil serpent weirdos who are too afraid of offending anyone to tell the truth without a strong dose of craft beer.

There he was, emoting how “poor people” are losing their jobs by the hundreds from the coal fired power stations and he believes his hydrogen works will provide more jobs.

Forrest has spent the past five years picking up random technologies (some for free, courtesy of the wood ducks at CSIRO) and pushing the Net Zero pieces around in the public imagination. He’s been getting ready for the biggest bite on the public purse in the history of mankind.

All he needs now is an Albo Government – preferably with the Greens support – and Ka-ching!

Australia: world leading hydrogen economy, envy of all. Socialised losses and private profit on an unimaginable scale.

Wentworth had only 6 Members in the first 80 years of Federation, but the 7 members in the 40 years following have been a riot, going by the accompanying pics:

Roger, yes, the argument usually is, ‘it’s not good stewardship to spend money keeping up unused church buildings at the expense of viable ministries elsewhere’. But I think that argument was addressed when someone traditionally called Magdalene arrived with a fine alabaster jar of ointment.

Do you consider the possibility that fresh opinions which don’t suit the prevailing narratives of this blog are routinely ignored or receive scathing condemnation and hence never get any traction? Every day I see stuff posted here that I think is fucking ludicrous but I can’t be bothered getting into a fracas about it. This forum is like any other, there are hidden rules and lines that must not be crossed.

TFM,

Obviously bottom of the class in Journo school.

I checked and it turns out it is I who is in error. The journo in question has received high praise and accolades from her sector and the ABC’s brief resumé paints her as quite a catch for the broadcaster.
So it’s my mistake to say that her choice of words was “accidental”. More likely it was gloating.

The US War Department had broken the IJN’s Purple Code back in the 1930s, so of course Roosevelt knew about the Pearl Harbor attack before it happened.

Dickless

Purple was the diplomatic code. The IJN code was known as JN-25, and was changed regularly. IIRC, JN-25a or b was the relevant one in 1941. The introduction of JN-25c was delayed in 1942, allowing the USN continued access before Midway.

Has Russia defeated the Ukraine yet?

Not until the ghouls have had there fun.

Yes but what the prevailing narratives?

‘The Vaxxxxinated are all going to get very sick and die. Soon…’ is a fairly dominant and persistent one. Closely followed by the ‘Everyone who took it, regardless of circumstances is a denialist and a Nazi.’ Check the upticks every time the Road Rager wordwalls about it, and the occasional study-based stoush that erupts when hyperlinks that agree/don’t agree with this line of thinking appear.

‘Vlad Bae is best and Ukraine is Nazis’ has gone rather quiet, now that SRR has stealth-flounced over to the Furniture Store, and 5 weeks into the invasion the Russians habe not achieved any clear and decisive victory…

The wheel always keeps turning though.
Those people who snapped up bargains of a lifetime 20, 30, 45 years ago are headed to the Nursing Homes now, the new Owners aren’t real likely to be voting Labor.

Pifflehead Wilson again going on about racial insensitivity at the Hawks.

First, she says it’s not fair to make Kennett the focus. Then she proceeds to make Kennett the focus.

Cyril might be out of cash.

He carries an extremely high-falutin’ surname, especially in the NT and especially especially in the Tiwi Islands – where the locals have a long and proud history of abandoning their children to scabies and malnutrition before returning en masse with their collective hands out if those children turn out to be shit hot footballers.

In ‘Junior Boy’ (his nickname, given for his place in the Rioli dynasty)’s heyday every fullblood or halfie in Darwin proclaimed to be his relation, much to the aggro of the ‘proper way’ Riolis.

Essendon player Austin McDonald-Tipungwuti, taken (or ‘stolen with consent’) from the Tiwis by a hand-patting family of travelling teachers told his entire family group to stick their demands for cash up their arses when they came calling years later, and when the bloke was doing quite well.

The Riolis are orders of magnitude higher in the football royalty stakes. Junior Boy has no doubt been drip feeding distant rellos for years, and it may now be starting to bite.

If there was ever a more stupid football story than the Harry O’Brien/Hertier Lumumba fiasco, this is it.

The Brits, Euroweenies and Americans will fight to the last Ukrainian standing.

Yep another shit show, Eyrie.

The new residents were more likely to be Labor voting Public Servants moving to a much better neighbourhood.

Is that where you live these days, Dickless?

One of the dweebs was off the coast of China

Which one was that Dickless?

The SS SpongeBob, SpongeBob.

From TE’s link at 9.01:

Police Commissioner Jamie Chalker and other executives gave instructions for Constable Zach Rolfe to be charged in Darwin if any charges were to proceed, police notes show, marking the fifth instance of documented evidence showing the top cop’s involvement across all four days following the Yuendumu shooting and further contradicting Mr Chalker’s claim he was not involved in the process to charge.

I am reliably informed that Chalker and his top-floor crew exist in a hardened titanium bubble, and truly believe that every single person outside of that bubble believes every word they say despite a Mount Everest-sized pile of evidence to the contrary.

So you just made that yarn up? Thought so.

PS, One of the carriers was due back in Pearl before the attack, but was delayed because the commander of the group, Halsey, was not satisfied with their flying training, and stayed out to give them more.

tipicle

Why?

You spelled “hypocrites” wrongly.

Either post a link for that bullshit, or i’m calling bullshit.

No worries, SpongeBob.

China does not invade it’s neighbours…

It’s a popular meme. That was also Bob Carr’s line to defend the CCP, as though quasi-historical statements about the China of past centuries will blind us to the activities of the modern Party.

PONZI!!!!!

Funny how liberated to point out the obvious ex part pollies become once they are shoved from the trough.
https://mahb.stanford.edu/blog/australias-population-ponzi-scheme/
Notwithstanding these negative outcomes, Australian governments are now wedded to what amounts to a migration driven Population Ponzi scheme. The migration keeps GDP in positive territory, so governments and bureaucrats can boast that Australia is growing and not in recession, despite living standards flatlining and the environment tanking. And our universities and vocational education institutions have dropped the ball on education and turned into corporate parasites, selling permanent residence to international students and paying million dollar-plus salaries to their administrators.

Nut Case, it was 1339 that the Yanks were able to read Purple, the Japanese code sent between embassies. Not 10 years before Pearl.

Obviously she’s used to bullying people to get her way, but this time it backfired.

But look at her husband! There is one of your stereotypical henpecked one.

If he’d any balls, he would have have retaken his seat – after all, she was the one being turfed. But the old biddy probably had them in her carry on luggage.

areff, going to go out on a limb here but a 28yo doesn’t hang up the boots unless he sees or is being warned about the writing on the wall. Whether it was due to injury or self discipline I smell sour grapes at a career cut short and the looming prospect of having to return to the Tiwi’s or Darwin.

Don’t know if he has any relation to the great Maurice but if so pity he doesn’t possess Maurice’s humility.

An actual nephew. As opposed to the usual ‘cousin’ or ‘cousin-brother’ which is anything up to and including ‘saw him at the shops once’.
