Biden didn’t invent “build back better” it’s a WEF slogan used by all those traitors who have infiltrated western governments.
Yet he uses it.
Does anyone actually believe Biden is running anything, even his own bath?
If he’s not running the show, and you look at everything happening…

Soros and co (WEF) have control of the USA and are destroying it, as they are in all the Anglosphere and western democracies.
The only hope lies in it’s separation of powers.

An excellent afternoon mooching around Coober Pedy. The Serbian church is lovely, with many sculptures and an interesting vaulted roof.
The trip out to the Breakaways was good too – basically along the route of a gigantic, ancient glacier. Prior to glaciation, it was a vast inland sea. We made our way to the top of the formations and had bubbly on the floor of the ancient sea bed.
And treated to yet another magical sunset.
Struth,
Try to read what was actually said before going into full Road Rage mode just because you saw my name.
The Biden Administration does not mean the man himself. It means all those people nominally beneath him.
Shit me, Struth. You’ve become as mentally incompetent and prone to demented nuffery as POTUS 46 himself…
Anyone who has seen, or had to deal with, an educated Indian (say a uni graduate driving a taxi) who has become adversarial, is in no doubt how the toxic culture in Big Tech got completely out of hand.

This morning, ‘maths genius’ Adam Spencer was interviewed on radio and rabbited on about how there are not enough qualified Maths teachers and that is why kids avoid the subject in schools.
Yet in suburban libraries everywhere and on the internet you can come across tutors whose only qualification seems to be that they are young and at Uni, and they got a top result in Year 12 Specialist and Maths Methods. It’s a flourishing little cash cow for the enterprising.
Teaching and learning are about motivation and that’s a quirky and intangible thing. It can’t be boiled down to a single thing.

Yes. They are arrogant, authoritarian and have a massive chip on their shoulder because whatever they do, they cannot compete against the West due to the corruption and class attitudes of their parent culture.

China on Wednesday “strongly denounced” the terrorist attack that took place in the Confucius Institute at Karachi University of Pakistan, urging thorough investigation and “severe punishment” for the terrorists. Three Chinese nationals were killed, with several casualties. The Chinese embassy and consulates in Pakistan have launched an emergency plan, requesting Pakistan to make every effort to treat the wounded, thoroughly investigate the attack, and severely punish the perpetrators.
Beijing has reacted to Peter Dutton’s comparison of China’s rise to Nazi Germany, saying it has no intention of creating a military base on the Solomon Islands.

Add to this that the Russkies likely suspect the Brits had a hand in the deep-sixing of the Moskva.

Particularly when your own people are the most likely culprits. The vial of Novichok that inexplicably turned up in a Salisbury skip months after the poisoning by a couple of druggies blew a Moskva-sized hole in the British theory of the case. As for the purported culprits – the veritable Keystone Kops of the intelligence world – isn’t it interesting how they turn up all over the place whenever Russia needs to be blamed for some foreign chicanery. It’s as though Russia only has this pair of buffoons to carry out all of their sensitive dirty work abroad.

Kiev to ATTACK LARGEST Ammo dump in Europe – Inside Russia Report
Some of you people could come home to Putin balls deep in your family pet and holding your spouses severed head, and your first thought would be “How did I make him do this, what the fuck is WRONG with me”?
The west has created an empire of lies presupposing the destruction of Russia
Nikolay Patrushev, Secretary of the Russian Security Council, in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta, spoke about the tasks of the Russian special operation and the role of the United States in supporting neo-nazis. And also – about the near future of Europe, the Russian gold and foreign exchange reserves and sanctions. And also about what changes await our country in the near future.
Nikolay Platonovich, today, perhaps, the term “Cold War II” no longer seems an exaggeration. The Americans do not hesitate to declare that they won the confrontation with the USSR and that now they will also win. How do you assess these views?
Nikolay Patrushev: Tragic scenarios of global crises, both in past years and today, are being imposed by Washington in its quest to consolidate its hegemony, resisting the collapse of the unipolar world. The United States is doing everything to ensure that other centres of the multipolar world do not even dare to raise their heads, and our country not only dared, but publicly declared that it will not play by the imposed rules. They tried to force Russia to give up its sovereignty, identity, culture, and independent foreign and domestic policy. We have no right to agree with this approach.
In an attempt to suppress Russia, the Americans, using their proteges in Kiev, decided to create an antipode of our country, cynically choosing Ukraine for this, trying to divide essentially a single nation. Having failed to find any positive basis for attracting Ukrainians to its side, long before the 2014 coup d’etat, Washington instilled in Ukrainians the exclusivity of their nation and hatred of everything Russian. However, history teaches that hatred can never become a reliable factor of national unity. If there is anything that unites the peoples living in Ukraine today, it is only the fear of the atrocities of nationalist battalions. Therefore, the result of the policy of the West and the Kiev regime controlled by it can only be the disintegration of Ukraine into several states.
Europe, as you warned a year ago, ended up facing an unprecedented crisis, including one caused by the flow of Ukrainian refugees. How can this affect the internal situation in the European countries themselves?
Nikolay Patrushev: Europe is facing a deep economic and political crisis for their countries. Rising inflation and declining living standards are already taking a toll on the wallet and mood of Europeans. In addition, large-scale migration adds new challenges to old security threats, such as illegal drug distribution and transnational crime. Almost five million Ukrainian migrants have already arrived in Europe. In the near future, their number will grow to ten million. Most of the Ukrainians who have come to the West believe that Europeans should support them and provide for them, and when they are forced to work, they start to rebel.
Representatives of the criminal community who have escaped from Ukraine will try to occupy niches that are favourable to them and put local criminal groups under control, which will undoubtedly be accompanied by a complication of the criminal situation in Europe. A “new breath” will also be received by a widespread business as the sale of orphaned children taken from Ukraine for subsequent illegal adoption in Europe. The West is already facing a revival of the shadow market for purchasing human organs from socially vulnerable segments of the Ukrainian population for clandestine transplant operations for European patients.
The flow of migrants from Ukraine began long before 2022, and now it reminds Europe of long-forgotten diseases. After all, only a tenth of refugees from Ukraine are vaccinated against coronavirus infection, viral hepatitis, tuberculosis, rubella and measles. Because in this former prosperous republic of the Soviet Union, the system of sanitary and epidemiological control and primary health care has been almost completely destroyed.
The goal of denazification is to destroy the neo-nazi foothold created by the West’s efforts on our borders
But this, apparently, is only the beginning?

“Losing Russia”, and it’s not all the fault of the west, is going to prove to be a massive loss. However, the loss can be directly attributed to the American left and the Demonrats in particular.
Years and years of accusing an American president of Russian collusion to steal an election had an impact in hardening attitudes.
The worst of it though is attributing the Bunter Hiden computer to “Russian disinformation”. Almost every single American MSN organization bit hard on that chestnut and allowed a corrupt family along with a demented titular head with to get away with it without even a slap on the wrist. It’s actually more than disgusting. To suggest this didn’t have an impact on Russian attitude towards the West is sleep walking into a massive problem that could end up in a nuke war.
The Demonrat party is absolutely evil.
I can understand the view some here hold that the fault isn’t Russia’s. That a great deal of fault lies with the West and western attitudes towards Russia. There are very good reasons why Russia is landing jabs against Uke. But at the same time we cannot ignore the Russian instigated violence against a neighbor. The American left is mostly to blame for a lot of this.
I’d also lay some blame on the UK for this – particularly UK intel. I’m almost certain UK intel was involved in the Russian collusion debauchery as a way of instigating bad relations between the US and Russia.
Fuck your slow on the uptake these days.
My position is putin is a c..nt.
But he’s fighting the western left.
The western left is globalist you great frankfurter.
It’s Goerge Soros, Klaus Schwab and the international organisations of these powerful meglomaniac c..nts……………………….which are the western left.
I’m not a massve lunatic, I’m just two years ahead of you.
And really, the jabbed shouldn’t be throwing stones in that glass house.
Yea, you’re a genius, Stuth.
You prove your “geniosty” every time you show up here.
I can’t come here too often and you can take credit for that, JC.
Watching the wheels of your mind slowly, ever so slowly turn, as you try to work it all out, is like watching a dog slowly sneeking up and stalking it’s own tail.

I’d like to take credit, but why? I have no control over idiots like you showing up.
No. Just stop.
JC 12.19:
‘There are very good reasons why Russia is landing jabs against Uke. But at the same time we cannot ignore the Russian instigated violence against a neighbor.’
Yet it cannot be that Russia is acting unjustly if Russia is also said to have just cause.
It’s messy, but some things are a little less so.
The MSM should start reporting like in the NT News above. Why isn’t that making front page and leading news at 6.00pm? If it were white people behaving like that the media would obsess about it for weeks.

David Bossie’s film Rigged lays out how Mark Zuckerberg funneled at least $400 million into numerous states for the drop boxes that, as Dinesh D’Souza’s film 2000 Mules will show, were used to submit false ballots by the thousands. Mike Lindell says he has proven the voting machines were easily hacked and vote counts altered across the country. No law enforcement agency has addressed why the vote counting stopped at around 11:00 on election night when Trump was ahead in the four key battleground states. There’s no doubt in my mind that the election was stolen.”
But Piers Morgan and a number of others in the media still run out the old No Evidence of Voter Fraud meme.

Matthew Piepenburg: Debt and War – The Signs of a Dying Empire
Tom welcomes back Michael Piepenburg Commercial Director of Matterhorn Asset Management to the show.
Sadly the decline of empires is often associated with war and debts. We’re seeing a lot of polarized thinking in the West and not much in the way of understanding. The war has shown how unprepared and weak much of the west has become. We are pointing a gun at Putin and shooting ourselves in the foot with these sanctions. The financial weapons that are being deployed against Russia are backfiring in a very serious way.
We are forcing Russia to move closer to China and the West has shown it’s willingness to freeze and steal reserves. This has not gone unnoticed by a number of countries. We’re seeing a lot of spin and virtue signaling from Western governments.
The West can’t use the same approach on larger countries that we’ve used on small ones in the past. We’re moving towards a multi-currency system due to the decline of the U.S. dollar. Russia’s FX reserves are the highest they have ever been. Saudi Arabia is now conversing with China to sell oil in Yuan and other nations are doing likewise. This means the end of the petrodollar which has massive implications.
U.S. Treasuries are now some of the most unloved IOU’s in the world. We’re seeing the consequences in the yield curve. If no one buys your debt than you have to buy it yourself. The market fears rising rates and their are no good solutions for the Fed. Inflation is therefore inevitable and intentional.
Matthew discusses how gold is ‘the’ monetary metal and he no longer has faith in any currencies. Count your wealth in ounces and grams not dollars. Gold is the insurance policy with the largest history.
Price discovery for gold is improving as more countries actively begin to use it. Gold always gets the last laugh.
Many Gold ETFs claim to provide ownership but is not true in fact. They may not have the gold and it’s probably stored at a commercial bank with derivative risks.
Lastly, try to stay positive and look for informed opinions.

Years and years of accusing an American president of Russian collusion to steal an election had an impact in hardening attitudes.”
Yes JC. The late Professor Stephen Cohen, who died in late 2020, was no far-right, hard-right “Putinist” (a laughable description one commentator here is rather fond of). Cohen’s wife, Katrina vanden Heuvel, has been for years the editor of The Nation, a very left-wing, progressive publication. Cohen was a professor of Russian studies at Princeton University and later worked at NYU. Whilst being of the left, Cohen actually supported the Trump’s administrations diplomacy with Russia and critically, Cohen warned about the catastrophic consequences that the Demonrat “Russia Collusion” and the general adolescent prattle among the American progressive left that Russia was to blame for the emergence of Donald Trump and everything else wrong with America, would have on Putin and Russian actions. Cohen also, for years, warned about the US’s toxic involvement in Ukraine. So why aren’t politicians listening to seasoned diplomats and Russia experts? Well this brings me to something Peter Hitchens said in a discussion early last month, not long after the start of the invasion, that compared to the past, there is now an acute dearth in the UK’s foreign office and in the US’s state department of not only Russian experts but even of Russian translators. The kind of thinking we are now witnessing would have definitely led to war in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis. The adults are gone, the adolescents are in charge. This is catastrophic.

So the geniuses in the Liberal Party have decided to preference the bush pig ahead of PHON in Tassie.

Oh and a reminder that it was only Pauline and Malcolm who refused to join in the censure motion against Bettina Arndt.

She successfully managed her escape by walking to Spain – 50 miles over the Pyrenees in deep snow, in the dead of winter, with a wooden prosthetic leg(the result of a hunting accident).
What happened next? She was promptly arrested and held for six weeks because she lacked an entry stamp on her passport. She considered this incarceration only a temporary setback. After release, she became a spy for the American intelligence service, the OSS. She had her teeth ground down and learned to apply makeup so as to appear to be an elderly French milkmaid. In this guise, she developed a spy network of 1,500 people that blew up bridges, sabotaged trains, and called in air drops across occupied France. After the war, she was recognized by both the French and British governments and was the only civilian woman to receive the Distinguished Service Cross from the U. S. Government – all of this done privately with only her mother present as a witness.
The name of this incredible woman? Virginia Hall – the most famous spy we’ve never heard of…

China boosts coal again: set for record in 2022: Official says energy security trumps carbon neutrality
A week ago our newspapers were full of dire warnings that the Australian coal mining industry was going to be left in the lurch by declining orders from China. “The End of Australia’s coal export boom is Imminent” said the AFR — parroting a report by a group that includes Alex Turnbull, someone known to profit from renewables.
What none of the headlines mentioned was that China is set to hit a new all time record of coal use this year.
China now wants to boost coal production by 300m tons — twice as much coal as Australia uses each year
China already burns 32 times as much coal each year as Australia does. Soon that will be 34 times as much. But who’s counting?

“The graziers moves to cut shearers wages in 1955, when wool prices were never better.” Bullshit.
The price of wool rose during the Korean War to the legendary “Pound a pound” – briefly – shearers were awarded a “prosperity loading” on their rate. The Korean Armistice was signed, the price of wool fell, and the graziers’ wanted the “prosperity loading ” removed.
IPA Report: Net Zero Means No New Coal, Gas, Oil Jobs
“A net zero emissions by 2050 target means that, at a minimum, every coal, gas, and oil project in the construction pipeline will need to be scrapped, cancelling over 478,000 jobs concentrated in regional Australia,” said Daniel Wild, Director of Research at the Institute of Public Affairs.
A landmark report released today by the Institute of Public Affairs, The Economic and Employment Consequences of Net Zero Emissions by 2050 in Australia, shows the real cost of net zero:
. At a minimum, all coal, gas and oil projects in the construction pipeline must be cancelled to achieve net zero by 2050.
. $274 billion cost to the Australian economy in forgone direct and indirect economic output, which is the equivalent to 13.5% of Australia’s annual GDP.
. Over 478,000 new jobs cancelled.
. North Queensland to be hit hardest, with 125,000 jobs cancelled, which is the equivalent to 25 years’ worth of job creation.
. Net zero would cost the Hunter region around $12 billion in lost economic output, the equivalent to 20% of gross regional product, and cancel 21,800 jobs which is the equivalent to four years’ worth of job creation.
“This research reveals that a policy of net zero emissions by 2050 will inflict significant and irreparable economic and humanitarian damage across regional Australia.”
“Many regional communities face the risk of being entirely wiped out by the destruction of the industries which they rely on as a result of net zero.”
“Net zero emissions means net zero jobs.”
“This damage is being inflicted on regional Australians by a small group of sheltered inner-city elites who have never stepped foot on a mining site and have a callous indifference to working-class Australians.”
A ban on all new coal, oil, and gas projects is the stated policy of the Greens and the “teal” independents.
“This research identifies that a deal with the teals or the Greens in the event of a hung parliament will cost regional Australians their jobs and their livelihoods.”
There is something seriously wrong at the BOM (besides the usual complaints).
They’re predicting maxima in the mid to high 20s for this district.
We’re presently sitting on 16 (feels like 13) with mizzle and hilltops shrouded in mist and I doubt we’ll get much above 20.

Snap lotocoti. The Australian Senate, the dumping ground of dregs and dross for decades.
The only time Labor shows an interest in regional Australians is during an election campaign.
The one exception was in 2019, when, after losing the unloseable elction, they sent Richard Marles (cough) to ask regional Queenslanders why they didn’t vote Labor.
Beyond platitudes, there’s no evidence they’ve taken on board to what they had to say. Their emissions offset charge will impact 35 mines in QLD employing 50 000.
Meanwhile, the Greens want to close the coal mines and put the miners on a government subsidised wage for up to ten years while they look for new jobs.
Anyone ordering an almond latte should be asked to leave. Even a double shot one.

Matt Kean won’t wait for Canberra
As his federal Coalition colleagues threaten to splinter over the path to net zero emissions, NSW Liberal Treasurer and Energy Minister Matt Kean is clear: the state is going there anyway, and consumers will benefit.
It’s a view that has brought friction with Canberra, and which threatens to drive a bigger wedge into the fracturing National Electricity Market.
Kean goes so far as to assert that for NSW’s journey in the energy transition, it makes little difference which party wins the May 21 election.
“From our perspective it doesn’t matter who’s in government, because we’ve got very clear plans and policies here in New South Wales that are in the interests of New South Wales taxpayers, and the families and businesses that operate here,” he says.
“We’ll work with whoever sits in the federal parliament to make sure we get the best outcome for the public.”
But Kean has plenty of energy left to talk up his vision for NSW’s future as he seeks to steer the state from its reputation as a global powerhouse in thermal coal exports to “an energy and economic superpower”, based on “some of the best renewable resources anywhere on the planet”.
“This is not just a play for our environment, this is a major strategic economic play to underwrite the future prosperity of our state and our nation,” he says.
Preparing for reality
“Today, half of the world’s wealth is being created in jurisdictions that have committed to net zero, so those markets that have previously underwritten our state’s prosperity are changing, and we want to make sure we’re well-placed to take advantage of those global megatrends in a way that will create jobs, drive investment into New South Wales and underwrite prosperity like the state’s never seen before.”
The transformation required is dramatic. Coal is the state’s largest export earner and contributed about $1.5 billion to the NSW budget in 2019-20, while 81 per cent of the state’s electricity still came from non-renewable sources. NSW also hosts major energy-intensive manufacturers such as the Tomago aluminium smelter and the BlueScope Steel works at Port Kembla, whose futures – and those of thousands of employees – have hinged on the availability of cheap coal power.

Snap lotocoti. The Australian Senate, the dumping ground of dregs and dross for decades.
What was that phrase? “Unrepresentative swill”!
The Senate was intended to protect state interests, particularly the interests of the smaller states. It has long since become a party-political plaything, providing sinecures for major party drones, and opportunities (particularly in the smaller states, where senators can be elected with few actual votes) for single issue fanatics.
It must be reformed. One way would be to establish six new states, each with six senators, and reduce the number of senators in each existing state to the six provided for in the Constitution. This would leave the HoR/Senate nexus in place, but dilute the power given now to “unrepresentative swill” from the smaller states (hello Tasmania).
Sorry ’bout that!
Shoulda stayed in Lebanon – it’s safer. Thanks Malcolm (Fraser).
Quite.
Sal, overnight:
There are two warring gangs in and around Wadeye/Port Keats. Each represents a collection of extended families with a Hatfield/McCoy-style feud going back to before the residents developed their space program.
The names of the gangs are – I shit you not – Judas Priest and the Evil Warriors.
Government shrugs because this happens all the time. It’s so common it doesn’t generally make the news. The reason it’s in the papers now is scale, but that’s it. The current punch-ons have been going for three weeks or more. Current favoured weaponry is the crossbow, a step up from the usual star picket. Punters have been shot in the legs, arms and feet already.
The Housing Minister in the NT News called the 36 burnt-down houses ‘disappointing’.
As mentioned by others, this is the result of a historical attempt to concentrate government services – school, housing, medical services – in one place and accessible to tribal groups who’ve been killing each other for centuries. Effectively, it was a cost-saving measure.
Some years back a copper shot and killed one of the rioting blackfellas on the local football oval. He was charged with manslaughter. He beat it, but if you combine that with the Rolfe fiasco (also mentioned earlier) you get the ‘Let them knock each other off, because I’m not copping a murder charge for fixing this’ attitude from the jacks.
Apparently and allegedly they’ve tasered so many people (I heard the number 60 being thrown about) they’ve run out of cartridges. Because the effects are temporary, it’s a very short-term arrangement.
Look for causal factors going back decades all you like, but none of that will take away from the current state of affairs being the current Government’s absolute willingness to look the other way when its own property is repeatedly destroyed, and the certainty of life-changing consequences for anyone who tries to remedy it.
As I thought, inter-clan warfare. Thanks KD.
Think of the poor almonds as they’re being milked.

Be warned, after you see this you will never unsee it again. And whatever you don’t send it to the ABC.

Madrid’s Deputy Minister for Public Health Claims Cases of Hepatitis on Young Kids Might be “Related to Covid-19 Vaccine”
As of April 23, more than 169 cases of hepatitis have been detected in 11 countries, according to the latest data from World Health Organization.
Japan’s Health Ministry said Tuesday that a child had been hospitalized with an unidentified type of severe acute hepatitis — or liver inflammation — in what is thought to be the first reported case in Asia, CNBC reported.
Antonio Zapatero, Madrid’s Deputy Minister for Healthcare and Covid-19 Plan, claimed these reported cases of hepatitis might be related to the Covid vaccine.
Zapatero also warned that the fourth dose “could have an anomalous effect” on the immune system.

Two clans here have been feuding since 1965 – no – one can remember what it was all about in the first place, and there was an agreement to let it all settle, but two of the “youngfellas” from one clan roped a girl from the other mob, and it’s all on again.

Greg lost his home in the Black Summer bushfires. Now he’s building one that’s disaster-proof
Working with NRMA Insurance, the bushfire council consulted 20 independent experts, including those specialising in bushfire, storm, flood and cyclone resilience experts, plus engineers and builders. They worked with architects JDA Co, who specialise in resilient design.
They’ve also developed a free handbook to assist builders like Webb and others who are retrofitting existing buildings.
It can take between two and five years to rebuild after a fire. To fast track this, prefabricated Fortis homes will also be available providing a build in 12 weeks. Costs will range from $300,000 for cabin size to $700,000 for a family-sized home.
Cotter said the council consulted extensively with Shoalhaven City Council and residents who had endured floods and bushfires that burnt for 74 days.
Working with an architect, Webb has designed most of his home using Fortis principles. His house will be built to flame zone rating, the highest fireproof level in Australia.
His house includes flame zone shutters that drop to seal all windows and doors. The house will be wrapped in a protective layer called TBA Firefly, and the home will be ember resistant by removing any gaps.
I expect SFA to happen to fix it, and even less to happen to prosecute corruption.
