Is there any record of who the reporter was?
I am not so sure Lehrmann is gonski.
Refer Old Ozzie’s post at 12:59.
There is barely one aspect of her whole story where she hasn’t been caught in a lie.
And not on matters of peripheral detail either.
Eventually that starts to weigh on a jury.
She was discovered by the security guard on the office couch completely naked.
And she was just left there ??? What the …..
September Consumer Price Index Shows Inflation Continuing to Rise More Than Expected, Fed Raising Rates Having No Impact Because it is NOT Demand Side Inflation
FED rate hikes can only impact the demand side of the inflation issue. U.S (and global) inflation is NOT the result of excess demand. It has not been driven by demand for over a year. The root cause of inflation is on the supply side. That root is grounded in the energy policy making everything entering the marketplace more expensive.
The historic rise in energy prices; the result of Joe Biden’s specific energy policy to limit oil, gas and coal as energy resources; are what have driven inflation throughout the economy. The monetary policy (Fed policy) continues to pretend this dynamic does not exist. The FED is trying to support the political policy, but the bloom is off the ruse.
Overall inflation increased 0.4% in September, leading to a result of 8.2% year over year. Food and energy prices continue driving inflation, additionally core inflation (everything except food and energy) continues to be driven by the originating issue of extreme energy costs.
Everything costs more because energy costs more. That is the reality of this inflation issue.
I feel like we are living in a parallel universe, where this grand game of pretense continues.
Every financial pundit knows the root cause of inflation is Joe Biden’s energy policy, yet they maintain the lies in order to protect the regime.
Raising interest rates in a supply side inflation economy only does one thing, it makes the economy contract faster. The only reason to intentionally shrink the economy is to try and reduce the demand for energy resources as part of the “transition to a green economy.” Together, the Biden administration and Federal Reserve are trying to lower economic output to meet a lowered amount of energy being produced. That is the reality of our situation.
They are destroying the working and middle class in order to chase their climate change agenda. These people must be removed from power.
No.
Apart from being female.
Later in the report it talks about a reporter from Nein, but not clear if it is the same person.
That this would be considered the cool and normal thing to do at Parliament House at 1:45am on a Saturday is almost as disappointing as the possibility of two drunk public servants boinking in the office. Exactly how drunk is debatable, as he’s said he thought that “neither he nor Higgins was very drunk when they went to Parliament House” (The Grauniad) but he would say that after the fact, and it just doesn’t match what other people said about Higgins.
Not that his drunkenness would be an excuse, but if that is what it looked like it just shows the federal public service culture is rife with intemperant sexpots and that’s nothing out of the ordinary for security. Anyone else here heard similar?
Exclusive footage of the brittneh trial.

It possible the chap went with the lass with evil intent, to the ministers office.
Its also possible brewers droop/ last minute “WTF am I doing” occourred.
In that scenario hes taken her somewhere with an intent, but not actually offended.
Be a cruel irony, or a form of justice if hes convicted?
*like speculating, but fecklessly irresponsibly
I credit my *complete* lack of formal education in economics 😉
Why do weeds grow faster than anything else?
And why is Brittneh dropping f-bombs in court? Classy lady. The lack of underwear might be a clue too.
Aren’t there two parts to the enchilada: money supply and supply of goods.
Why isn’t more being done to fix the latter ?
Or is it that the Fed can only control the first and has minimal influence on the second, especially in a globalist economy with wars, pandemics and trade dispute spotfires bubbling away everywhere.
On what evidence? There isn’t any, nor is there any that I’m aware of that has emerged during the hearing. Zero, zip, zilch, diddly squat. Britnee claiming that she was raped (while drunk as a skunk) is not, repeat not, “evidence”.
Instead, the stupid bint has been caught out repeatedly being “economical” with the truth.
If Lehrmann is convicted, it will be a travesty of justice on par with Pell and Chamberlain, not to mention setting an extremely ugly precedent, which would then hopefully be punted in the High Court.

I agree – the truncation of the case suggests *either* the prosecution feel like they have made a slam dunk, or its all going to shite and they are desperate to stop it getting worse.
The ‘vibe’ goes with the former./
Hunchback is sermonising about the flooding in Vicdanistan.
Hunchback will have everything under control soon.
Water will be put on a curfew. It is to remain outdoors for 23 hours a day and will only be allowed indoors to properties within 3km of where the rain fell.
Also the water must wear a mask. To stop the spread.
Scratch a progressive like former barmaid Sandy Cortez (now a congressional representative who calls herself “AOC”) and you find just another war-mongering neocon supporting the military industrial complex.

The counter to Lehrmann getting off.
A Victorian jury found Pell guilty of sex offences that supposedly happened in a place as busy as a news agency on Powerball jackpot night.
Never underestimate the complete lack of common sense and rational thought amongst your peers.
Because only the *free market* can efficiently supply goods, and we haven’t had a free market for decades – layer after layer after layer (snigger – the ‘Sarah Lee’ school) of regulation favouring big business has well and truly converted our capitalist economy into a fascist one – and neither of the beneficiaries (government and big business – not us) are going to let that change!
Oh ….. well …. you know …… the thing ..
Welcome home, callie.
fcuk again – the vibe goes with the latter – its all going to shite
Have I gotten this right?
Did Monty say that he thought the Vietnam war was a brilliant idea? The North invaded (bullied) the South and Monty supports fighting “bullies”. So he supported our involvement in the Vietnam war.
I wonder what he would have thought about the Soviet invasion of Hungary. He might not have been alive but, if he was, presumably he would have been calling for the US to intervene against the Soviet bullies.
Surely, everyone stood down/dismissed/ suffered emotional stress deserves compensation if his statements were based on lies or speculation.
Okay so that’s two things I did not know.
That B & B were not departmental employees of some kind, and that PH staff are not CPS either.
It was with much sadness that I blocked Tucker after his craven capitulation on the night of the big steal in 2020. 🙁
There was an article in the English press, a few years ago, that, of your average British jury, of “Twelve good men and true”, two would be barely able to read and write, and a further two unable to comprehend any but the simplest of evidence placed before the court. I don’t know if anyone has ever done any such research in Australia.
They will pick up the tab, at least for now, I imagine.
I’m not into predictions as wrongologists are made of these.
But, it is still her word versus his word. There is no evidence to support otherwise. Period.
The prosecution and defense are both trying to make each of them look inconsistent or, at worst, liars.
My only worry about the judiciary these days (as in the case of Pell) was that Justices ruled that the inconsistency of evidence proved it to be more truthful… an absolute reversal of justice.
I do, at times, idly muse that we will, one day, get our own national apology and sorry day.

Everything is blooming, the pool is overflowing, two pee wees just came in the front door to say welcome back and the washing machine is going hell for leather. Situation normal.
R v Lehrmann ought to be dismissed.
This shouldn’t have even gotten past a voir dire.
The accuser is not a competent witness.
And the lies weren’t just immaterial gotchas like “Aha! Your statement says you ate a bowl of cashews at Bar88, but the bar tab says “peanuts”!
They are entirely relevant, as they supposedly add weight to her claims that her subsequent behaviour indicated she had been raped.
And, time after time, her story has been shredded.
More, from the article, in the Oz, about the suppressed testimony.
We should thank god that got smacked down.
It would have been so perverse, murderers caught out in cross examination could appeal in that basis!
I guess Lehrmann has in his favour that he wasn’t already a public enemy the way Pell (and the entire Catholic Church) was.
But that only goes to show how perverse our justice system is. It needs to be overhauled. For cases that have been massively tainted such as this one, the prosecution should have no (or limited) say in jury selection.

Agree with your precis and commentary 100% along the way Sancho. But the fact remains, even if both of them are the most cunning and evil peeps who ever existed, there’s still no evidence either way.
So, very unfortunate for her if she was raped but, alas, you need evidence.
An “informal job interview” involves a pub crawl and getting hammered.

At this point I’m not even convinced that fatties and oldies are better off with it. Triple vaxxed getting covid 5 times while unvaxxed frolic in the fields failing to catch it no matter how hard they try.
To the extent that Wokeism is the official ideology of the GAE, more and more institutions, whether private or public, will seek to enforce its ideology, either because they are supporters, or simply to curry favor with political elite.
What is wrong with these people? They sound like a bunch of low IQ yokels.
What the hell are we paying them for their outstanding contribution to the nation?
Lehrmann’s statement that the totally naked, passed-out woman on the couch was “just fine” when he left is slightly bizarre.
Been meaning to for yonks as well. Finally did it just now.
Is there any record of who the reporter was?
I’d be interested too. A young fellow or an old maiden?
Seems to me it’s difficult to be positively claiming remembering someone removed your underwear*, which implies a state of consciousness at the time, and which also goes against, waking up mid action in an ‘it was like a dream’ state, to no actually I wasn’t wearing underwear at all.
*in an interview you expect you to be viewed by millions.
Did Lerhman’s claim to have left her there completely naked?
That isn’t consistent with her claim either.
The no underwear thing tells me all I need to know about grotty Brittnah.

VPLgate.
Well as anecdotes go, I know unvaxxed who’ve gotten covid, and I spent two months in Europe at the height of the first omnicron wave and didn’t.
My family member’s oncologist was very keen on them getting vaxxed, who’s advice should they have taken instead?

Am I to understand that you like her? Or are you alluding to snail trails?
I believe it’s called “networking”.
One of the most peculiar aspects of that event were the actions of the parents. TV images showed the grieving parents entering the building from the car park, but footage from a helicopter showed them leaving through a back door, taking a long walk around the side of the building, then re-entering again through the front door.
Why were they walking around in circles?, most peculiar.
As was the complete absence of any ambulances.
Maybe someone who doesn’t poison people for a living?
Of all the people to trust. An oncologist. Wow.
It seems like I’m the only person in the universe that has ever pondered the ridiculousness of medical “evidence”.
If you give 100 people chemo and another 100 people a placebo then the latter group will all know they’ve been “dudded” because their hair won’t fall out and they won’t feel the need to vomit every five minutes.
So a placebo controlled trial of chemo simply cannot be done.
So what to do?
Well never fear because our genius oncologists have a solution. You see, you give the first group the new chemo drug and the second group you give an older chemo drug to! Brilliant. And if the new chemo drug kills people at a slower rate than the old one killed people then you have a scientifically proven wonderdrug on your hands which you can all make zillions of dollars on.
It should go without saying that there are no useful controlled trials for surgical interventions either.
And vaccines face the same problem as the above. If you use an actual placebo in the vaccine trial the vaccine recipients (if they experience non-trivial reactions) will be effectively unblinded, allowing them to manipulate the evidence (and anybody who signs up for a vaccine trial is, by definition, a vaccine zealot so manipulate it they will). But if you use, say, a vaccine for the control then you just compare one poison to another.
Nothing oncologists or virologists do has anything to do with science. With emergency medicine you can usually instantly know if your intervention was wise but with disease based medicine you cannot. So that’s where your statistical “evidence” comes in. But it doesn’t work in medicine because everything’s circular.
In fact, it’s basically the same epistemologically as (Austrian) economics. You need a logical – first principles based – framework before empirical evidence has any kind of meaning.
You need to start from the ground up with premises that you know for a fact must be true.
For example. I can visit a doctor and, in so doing, be surrounded by hundreds of sick people. I can even be a doctor and live a normal lifespan.
From this I can conclude with certainty that there is no such thing as contagion.
OTOH, I can observe clusters of people getting the same symptoms.
So whilst I know contagion is not real, I know that the cause of disease is something that can be shared.
So the cause of disease is something that can be shared but not spread.
Poisoning and emotional trauma become the two obvious culprits and from there it is a matter of working out what and why diseases are caused by these two things (either distinctly or acting together).
We always knew that Canbra in general and the bland structure on on capital Hill were abominations. Even more so now than we thought. These aren’t serious people. They are spoilt degenerates.

Well, ‘increases over a decade of 200 percent’ is nowhere as bad as it sounds, as anyone with a knowledge of basic statistics knows.
That said, the common perception that paracetemol is benign needs to be updated. It is not. In large doses it is very dangerous – I think Winston explained how it destroys the liver over a period of days, while the attention-seeker feels OK. Until they don’t.
As usual, the response from the gubbmint is to impose more restrictions. When has there ever been another?
How about educating people about the effects of large doses of paracetemol? So that stupid teenagers know that ‘it’s not just Panadol’ and that they could easily die, or be disabled for life?
Those of us with chronic pain conditions are finding it harder and harder to obtain the pain relief that is technically possible in 2022, because of some shonky doctors and the relentless encroachment of the regulators.

In answer to your second question, far too much.

The performance of the parliamentary Liberal Party in recent years provides a clue.
I am not of your opinion. Degenerate behaviour in the boss’s office after hours for a bit of extra spice is within the range of pretty damn normal. Unless OF COURSE you are of the opinion that St Paul’s advice to the Ephesians ‘Let there be not a hint of sexual impropriety among you’ is to be expected of the general Australian population in 2020.

Milton, they get their jobs because of their connections in the MP’s electorate, FFS. The blaming of ‘Canbra’ for the actions of people who come from everywhere else but there is very old. It’s a handy way of deflecting, but it’s dishonest and misleading.
Your typical staffer is someone who has worked on the election campaign of their future boss, who has demonstrated stamina and loyalty, and it sure helps if he/she has family or Party connections. Or maybe has a reference from a close colleague/ally.
It is important to have a bit of clarity about these matters.

I would have thought on this blog a SARC tag was unneeded, but in your case in future I will use one.
Can you tell me which part is wrong?
If you were an alien and had never known anything about disease and you came down and witnessed hundreds of sick people sitting in a hospital waiting room and then along came somebody in a white coat who explained to you that diseases were highly contagious and therefore being around sick people was an astonishingly dangerous thing to be and you then witnessed that same person trotting off to peer down the throats of every one of the hundreds of sick people then (who miraculously survived being around each other just fine) what would you think?
If I were that alien I would assume that that person in a white coat was a complete lunatic.
And I would be right.
But therein lies the difference between me and 99.99999% of the world. I threw it all out and started from scratch with zero assumptions other than what I knew I could see for myself. From there, when I built it back up again, most of it was actually quite obvious. Not all, but the general gist.
OTOH you (and 99.99999% of the world) said: “well I know the government and doctors and media would never lie to me on this issue so what lunatic rationalisations can I come up with to enable me to continue to maintain my ridiculous delusions?”
You see the difference?
I guess not. But that’s what happened. That’s why, in order to explain why visiting doctors is magically safe you will say that being around sick people is completely harmless. However, simultaneously, it is also dangerous. Except that it’s harmless. But it’s also very dangerous. And harmless. And dangerous.
Not sure there is too much point in trying to call a jury trial unless you have sat through the whole trial alongside them. A mate worked for the State DPP and lost plenty they thought were lay down miseres. The reporting and trial developments certainly suggest things aren’t going to plan.

I think if there’s one thing the last 2 years have taught us, its that whether you get an infectious disease or not depends MUCH MORE on the state of your own immune defences than on whether you can duck and weave and avoid exposure.
In retrospect, it was ever thus – ICU are full of (sick, immune compromised) patients with MRSA, Pseudomonas etc etc but the staff dont fall ill – they will regularly swab + for these infections, but they dont actually get sick.

Many years ago I was conducting interviews for a role in the company I was working for at the time. I was interviewing a young lady and as the interview was concluding she said “This is a great job and I’d do anything to get it”. I looked straight at her and she said “anything”.
It wasn’t quite a Sharon Stone Basic Instinct moment but there was absolutely no misinterpreting her meaning.

I heard a really disturbing story from my cardio during a regular consult yesterday. Boy oh boy, it’s shocking. He’s a really good guy and a top notch cardio with a Phd having also trained in NYC at a major teaching hospital. If you manage to obtain a residency at such a well known hospital you’re at the top of the league.
Anyway, he told me that last year he saw a very uncomfortable number of young men with myocarditis and other older folk with blood clots. Myocard was associated with Pfizer and clotting with the Astra Z.
He reported his findings to the relevant medical supervisory board associated with the government. He subsequently received a phone call telling him not to report these cases to them even though it was protocol. He was told to report it to the vaccine specialist unit at a major hospital. He did and received a phone call.. note there was no letter.. He was told to stop reporting this information and just treat people as they come in. The Doc told the caller that he wanted to do a study on these cases but was told in no uncertain terms that if he did, it would threaten his medical license as he would be considered an anti-vaxxer by the medical establishment. He was also told no-one would publish the findings anyway.
Doc is a happy sort of dude, but he really sounded sad and dejected by what happened telling me he had become very disenchanted with the medical profession in oz.
This is fucking wow to me.
Look, his caseload could also be a statistical cluster, but Lysenko medicine is beyond intolerable.
Back in my old lecturing days at uni, I gave one (extremely attractive) student a credit. She texted me and asked what her score was. I looked it up and she had 69%. 1% short of a distinction (which she need to get in order to do a higher degree).
I let her know via text and the response from her was “I would do anything for that 1%”
I ignored it until the second text arrive: “Anything.”
I said “I’d review your essay again to see if the score could/should move.”
And so I did. I texted her and said “I’ve reread your essay and, upon review I have revised your score to 65%.”
She asked for an independent Professor to review it, I agreed, and he agreed with me on the score. 🙂

I politely responded to your question regarding the efficacy of the vaccine for someone who was very seriously ill and I get this crap.
Have you any idea of what it was like for someone (and their family) who got their first diagnosis of an aggressive cancer a few days before lockdowns started, had to endure all their treatment and surgery in lockdown and then had the thing metasise with another major surgery, also during a lockdown?
No, I didn’t think so.
Teh Paywallian has a rundown of the witnesses heard in Brittany’s time off. Some inconsistencies but again hard to draw any real conclusions unless you’re in court alongside them.
Quelle surprise: Biden renews COVID “emergency” for another 90 days
Never let a crisis go to waste, Rahm Emanuel once advised. Add to that this new axiom: Never let your emergency powers expire. As incompetent as Joe Biden might otherwise be, he’s proven adept at following both.
Again:
The Biden administration extended the Covid-19 pandemic’s status as a public health emergency for another 90 days, preserving measures such as expanded Medicaid and higher payments to hospitals.
The decision follows comments President Biden made in September describing the pandemic as over. Some Republican lawmakers said afterward that the administration should wind down its pandemic response and the emergency designation.
Er … yeah, didn’t Biden make that clear at the time? In his 60 Minutes interview with Scott Pelley less than four weeks ago, Biden walked around the Detroit auto show without a mask, and remarked about how normal it seemed, and how “everybody seems to be in pretty good shape“:
That was just three weeks ago. What makes this an “emergency” now? Even with the CDC still reporting correlative data rather than causative, ER visits with COVID diagnoses are near a year-long low and dropping. Reported cases are bottoming out as well, as are correlated deaths (still no breakout for causation), as are correlated hospital admissions. Even wastewater surveillance — which would take place regardless of emergency status — shows a decline in prevalence despite the addition of many new sites in the mix.
So why is the pandemic over but not the emergency? For one thing, Biden still wants emergency cash from Congress:
In other words, Biden’s extending the emergency to answer demands that Biden has no plans to unwind the emergency — even after admitting on national TV that “the pandemic is over.” Only in Washington would that make any sense at all, and even then only in an administration as addled as Biden’s.
The emergency is over. The emergency powers should be rescinded, and Biden should seek funding through the normal budget process.
Biden’s extension of emergency status is about power, not public health. It’s high time Congress acts to bring this to an end, and that should be a much broader impulse to check executive power than limited to just “some Republican lawmakers.”
JC, youve hit upon a perfect term for the last 2 years.

Political science, not enough to bend reality, but enough to disguise it.
Gosh Lysander. How to put your job in jeopardy. These women are pure poison.
If the medical establishment is playing this shit, then they should be sent to the gulags. Seriously, these scumbags should be treated in the same way they would be if they messed up in the old Soviet Union.
But how many of those was he first author? In my experience, the Professors get to but their name on a paper even if they just glanced at it (with their names further down the list).
Have you any idea of what it was like for someone (and their family) who got their first diagnosis of an aggressive cancer a few days before lockdowns started, had to endure all their treatment and surgery in lockdown and then had the thing metasise with another major surgery, also during a lockdown?
Gee, imagine if all that had taken place without a lockdown caused by political malice and panic.
So which is it, was the panic and lockdowns all worth it, or did they exacerbate your friends case?
If you say they were worth it then your friends suffering was a small price to pay.
If you say it wasnt then the rationale (such as it was) of 2+ years of bullshit is gone.
You cant praise the vaccine without praising the bastardry inflicted on people as well.
I agree. My cousin (same age) killed himself during on of Dan’s disgusting lockdowns. That cunt is a fucking murderer.
In my experience, you travel, network and socialise with other “very agreeable” Perfessors, (further) develop a groupthink and then do deals to “review” each other’s works. It’s a scam.
When I was going my PhD*, I chose 3 academics that I was mates with to review my work.
*Like many, family came along and my unfinished degree is cackling at me from the bookshelf. In fact, if I can gloat (as I never got the chance anyway), it was on Libertarianism (well before anyone really knew what this was) and predicted future electoral success in Australia. So… too late now that that has happened anyway….
I had managed to trace Scottish Economic thought and how it got into Australia via UWA and Ed Shann (whom Statist drunkard Curtin hated) and the rest is history…I could go on like a Bruce McAvaney but I won’t… 🙂
Rubbish . Just because you took the vaxx does not at all mean you agree with or praise the Govt scum who inflicted the lockdowns and it’s accompanying brutality on us. The fact is, comapanies in Vic complied with Dan’s mandates and refused entry to work places unless vaxxed. That doesn’t mean you praise the lockdowns. Also, there are those that due to age or their medical/health situation felt more comfortable taking the vaxx BUT wholeheartedly opposed the lockdowns. So a myriad reasons why an individual could choose to take the vaccine and oppose the scumbag Govts. And I’m one of them.
The vaccine and the Govt scumbags brutalizing citizens are 2 separate issues.
Mine also was not completed, stopped it after 2 years. Mine was on using neural networks to try and predict O&G pipeline corrosion. The big O&G companies were all keen on providing data to use, but the lawyers got nervous, so kind of ended the project.
I am as fond of a drink as the next person, but I find this bizarre and a total anachronism.
Every company I have worked for this century had a strict no alcohol policy.
.1 Don’t bring it to work.
.2 Don’t come to work pissed (or, in latter years registering above 0.0% BAC*).
.3 If you go out for a boozy lunch (which was very rare) do not come back.
Admittedly I had one “interview” about 15 years ago where we met in a bar and had a beer, but this was a company I had worked for previously and was friends with the guy who was interviewing me.

Democrat Virginia state lawmaker to introduce bill making it a crime for parents not to affirm their LGBT child
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin introduced updated ‘model policies’ on transgender students last month
As the battle over parental rights and protections for LGBT students heats up in Virginia, one state delegate said she will introduce a bill in the legislature’s next session that would make it a crime for a parent or guardian not to affirm their child’s sexual orientation or gender identity.
The move is in response to Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s updated “model policies” on transgender students, which require students to use bathrooms and join sports teams based on their sex at birth, as opposed to their gender identity.
Democratic Virginia Delegate Elizabeth Guzman told WJLA on Thursday she will introduce a bill that will expand the state’s definition of child abuse and neglect to include parents and guardian who do not affirm their LGBT children.
Guzman did not respond to questions from Fox News Digital about the details of her legislation.
In her interview with WJLA, Guzman did not explain what she meant by affirming LGBT children.
“This is about restoring power to parents,” Youngkin told Fox News last month.
“And let’s just be clear, children do not belong to the state. They belong to families. And when a child is wrestling with this kind of decision, a parent should absolutely be the primary counselor adviser and help her in wrestling with this decision.”

Duk, the cholesterol theory was disproved by the 1980s, but we have to wait for a generation of cardiologists and those quacks in the diet field and their many hangers on to die.

All the years I was growing up, I remember the old man enjoying his boiled egg for breakfast. It was a highlight of his day – seriously.
In his 50s, he had a heart attack and was put on The Diet. Stupid doctors (who are not scientists) decided that because eggs contained cholesterol, the old man couldn’t eat them, or he’d die quite soon. To describe this is ‘science’ is like describing Greta Thunberg as a babe.
It spoiled his mornings for decades.
10-15 years ago, The Powers That Be announced that it would be OK for him to have an egg once a week. It is part of the long. slow backpedal from the nonsense that they have been inflicting on the public about how eating eggs translates into clogging your arteries.
Aside from the obvious, modern advocacy ‘medicine’ and the voodoo surrounding diet are very much about the pharmaceutical industry, with a handy sideline in the metal and plastic bits and pieces inserted by surgeons.

Id disagree.
The rationale for the lockdowns was (long, long time ago) to protect the community until a vaccine became available.
The holding out for vaccines was the sole legitimising factor for the whole clownworld/shitshow we inhabit now.

Light up, America and cast your ballot this year on Biden’s terrible record
It took a fake news anchor on “Saturday Night Live” to finally ask the question the fake political media in Washington has been ignoring for years.
Is President Biden high? Or just senile? Or has he always really been this stupid?
The spoof began with the fake news anchor sitting at a fake TV news desk. The screen behind him showed an image of Mr. Biden and a giant leaf of marijuana.
The audience laughed before the fake news anchor even opened his mouth.
Then he started his joke.
“This week, President Biden pardoned thousands of convicted marijuana users and it feels like maybe he celebrated with them a little because yesterday Biden gave a speech at a car factory and opened with this,” the fake news presenter said, setting up a video clip of the president of the United States talking.
More laughter.
“Let me start off with two words,” Mr. Biden began. “Made in America.”
Sometimes it is hard to know whether Mr. Biden is dumber at words or numbers. To be fair, Mr. Biden has never held a real job and he has spent his entire career in Washington where nobody knows math.
The audience roared. The fake news anchor continued.
“Let me respond with two words: Jesus H. Christ.”
Borderline blasphemy, sure. But it may have been an earnest prayer. Even a fake news presenter on an unfunny comedy program can see the country is going down the toilet under this president.
A neuroscientist has recently published a paper arguing the problem isn’t LDL but low HDL. Of course his ideas are not welcome. Don’t expect the medical profession to endorse this quickly. While there has long been a cholesterol network of doctors fighting against the status quo they have buckley’s chance of gaining traction. Science progresses one grave at a time? We’re gonna need thousands of graves.

Corporate media in death spiral because consumers are looking elsewhere
Polls show trust in newspapers and television is at an all-time low
Gannett, which operates its flagship USA Today and over 200 local daily newspapers, shocked the media establishment with a blunt assessment of its financial standing on Wednesday. The company abruptly announced a hiring freeze, a mandatory five-day unpaid vacation, a six-month sabbatical, a stoppage of 401(k) matches by the company for employees, an optional four-day workweek, and voluntary separation packages for those interested in retiring.
Gannett’s CEO made no secret of the fact that the moves were motivated entirely by financial concerns — the company is sinking, and these actions were designed to keep it afloat. Only two months ago, Gannett already laid off 400, or 3%, of its workers in the U.S.
And the news giant isn’t alone.
Earlier this year, CNN endured the embarrassing spectacle of the cancellation of their much-heralded streaming service, CNN+, which closed its doors only a month after its launch. Despite some high-profile hires, fewer than 10,000 subscribers were using the service every day.
Inside CNN, more layoffs have followed and there has been a reshuffling of the on-air talent – not related to the departure of star host Chris Cuomo, who left after a highly publicized scandal that also involved his disgraced brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. CNN’s new leadership is actively trying to correct the network’s leftward tilt and dismal ratings.
Nationwide, newsroom staffing has dropped 26% since 2008, according to the Pew Research Center.
What is happening?
But when you look at polls about public attitudes toward the legacy media, there is ample proof that the corporate news media has had a hand in doing themselves in. According to Gallup, only 16% of American adults say they have “a great deal” of trust in newspapers, and only 11% have faith in television news. Both numbers are all-time lows.
The polling does show that, while the numbers are still low, Democrats are far more likely to trust the news media than Republicans, and why would that be?

The FBI framed Trump and saved Hunter Biden: it’s time to clean house, for good
By Post Editorial Board
Denial is no longer possible: FBI headquarters not only pumped up the Russiagate scandal knowing none of the “evidence” held up, it then turned around to help deep-six actual evidence of Hunter Biden crimes that tainted now-President Joe ahead of the 2020 election.
The latest revelations come from special counsel John Durham’s prosecution of “Steele dossier” gofer Igor Danchenko. Specifically, disgraced FBI analyst Brian Auten testified that the FBI dangled $1 million for Christopher Steele to verify at least part of his package of allegations against Trump — all of which, we now know, came from Danchenko’s water-cooler gossip with pals in DC.
That is, the FBI was on a hail-Mary quest to verify the dossier even as it was touting the specious material as evidence of Trump’s Moscow misdeeds, including getting a national-security court OK to surveil ex-Trumpie Carter Page. The FBI and Justice Department were lying in sworn documents shared with the court and other federal agencies.
Even after Danchenko admitted he’d made it all up, the FBI still relied on the dossier to get the court to extend its surveillance warrants in the spring and summer of 2017. And FBI chief Jim Comey practically got down on his knees and begged retired DNI James Clapper not to blow up the fact that the dossier was unverified.
Worse still, Auten got called on the carpet for his role in these dirty deeds — yet was nonetheless tapped to work up a 2020 analysis of the amply corroborated financial shenanigans of Hunter Biden. He baselessly disparaged them as disinformation; the FBI then used his “analysis” to stall the Hunter investigation, while various intelligence-community shills used it to help suppress our reporting on Hunter’s laptop.
FBI headquarters intervened deceptively to shield Hunter (and Joe), after illegally intervening to kneecap Trump. It’s there in black and white. But Durham’s only exposed the rot; it’s up to the American people to demand to house clean.

Subsequently, working in Paris, the company asked me to squire a bunch of wives from a polliwaddle fact finding and chrissy gift buying tour of Europe. They were nice women, but what they had to say about the ‘life’ was eye opening for an innocent such as me. A couple of beaujolais truth pills and it all came out. I felt sorry for them.

Nothing But Welfare Queens: American Aid to Zelensky and Tsai Ing-wen
As it pertains to the American public, Ukraine’s response to the Russian invasion can be summed up with two words: “Zelensky demands.”
To date, Washington elites and their politicians have been happy to provide—at public expense—lining their own pockets in the process.
As of this writing, U.S. aid for Ukraine has reached approximately $67.5 billion, a figure greater than Russia’s entire 2021 military budget. According to the State Department, this support includes $15.2 billion in direct military assistance. The support comes although 60-70% of lethal aid never reaches the front lines, according to a now-redacted CBS interview with on-the-ground activists.
Not only is the American taxpayer supporting much of the Ukrainian military, it is also supporting the Ukrainian government. The same working class Americans who were deemed “nonessential” in 2020—who saw their businesses shuttered and burned down—now have to pay entitlement programs both at home and in Ukraine. As of September 30, 2022, the U.S. has provided $13 billion in “direct budget support,” which is ostensibly used;
…to pay government salaries, meet pension obligations, maintain hospitals and schools, and protect critical infrastructure[,] support continuity operations at the national, regional, and local levels, support for [sic] the health sector, agricultural production, civil society, [and enable] programs to hold Russia and its forces accountable for their actions in Ukraine.
Although American taxpayers have already matched Russia’s 2021 military budget, Ukrainian president Vlodomyr Zelensky only demands more. During a Tuesday phone call, President Biden reviewed Washington’s latest $625 million dole to Zelensky. It includes, inter alia, four additional High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS), 16 155mm Howitzers, 75,000 155 mm artillery rounds, 500 precision-guided 155mm artillery rounds, 16 105mm Howitzers, 30,000 120 mm mortar rounds, and 200 MaxxPro Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles.
This latest boon notwithstanding, in the same phone call, Zelensky urged Biden to provide Ukraine with air defense systems that would be used to shoot down Russian planes.
Much like Washington’s response to COVID-19, a no-holds-barred approach to Ukraine is so widely supported, it is a foregone conclusion. Despite this, some Republicans have valiantly opposed this rampant and provocative spending. Noteable dissenters are: Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MS), Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA), and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
Republicans like Taylor-Greene, Gaetz, and Hawley understand the cost of empire: endless warfare, a decaying homefront, and a beclowned international reputation. They understand that a war between the U.S. and Russia will be unlike anything Americans have ever experienced. Although they cloak their condemnation of war with Russia in criticism of “weak Joe Biden,” they understand it is the West that provoked this conflict and seeks to prolong it “to the last Ukrainian.”
They know that the conflict—even if it remains by-proxy—is a cost war-weary working class Americans do not want and cannot afford.
They must, then, realize that the same Washington elites waxing American fat off the Ukraine conflict are cultivating Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen as a Zelensky in-waiting.
You can be a pain in the butt, but you are honest.
That is half right.

I don’t think he has sufficient money to take it to the High Court.
