LOL, the story wasn’t credible but…was in fact true. There was no evidence of wrongdoing but…he was involved in backroom influence peddling in Ukraine, China, among other countries with kickbacks to ‘the big guy’. Go back to sleep, Monty.

Grigs momentarily lapses into awareness of his own condition, by proxy. Astonishing really to see it happen.
The statement to Congress came in 2018, the Twitter Files are from 2021. It is still possible that the statements they made in 2018 were correct at the time. Maybe the software was written later. I’m not saying that is the likely scenario, but more reporting is needed to confirm whether they were shadowbanning in 2018.
As for targeting, Taibbi and Weiss featured right-wing accounts but that does not mean that left-wing accounts were not targeted as well. This is the IRS thing all over again – the IRS did not specifically target right-wing PACs for audits as everyone who was on the edge was in their sights, but the right squealed and pretended that it was only them.
Everyone can see through the partisan slant on the story. No one is getting fooled, we are too far into the Trump era now. We know what gaslighting looks like, and this is it. Don’t come the raw prawn.
Cry more, losers.
I don’t cry dickless; I have a dick.
There was no evidence of kickbacks. Stop lying, db.
Hahahahahahahaha!
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!
You are so funny Monty. Makes my day almost.

What kind of a deal is it to swap Brittney Griner, a basketball player who openly hates our Country, for the man known as “The Merchant of Death,” who is one of the biggest arms dealers anywhere in the World, and responsible for tens of thousands of deaths and horrific injuries. Why wasn’t former Marine Paul Whelan included in this totally one-sided transaction? He would have been let out for the asking. What a “stupid” and unpatriotic embarrassment for the USA!!!
This is where we are up to in the movie.
What will keep dickless spewing its garbage is not joe’s and the biden family’s corruption, which is indisputable, but that nothing will happen to them. What dickless is really saying when he says there were no kickbacks etc is that yes there was but the demorats own the system and nothing will happen to them.
“There was no evidence of kickbacks.”

Speaking from Kir’ribilli on planet Syd-a-ney, Emperor Albatine said he was “pleased” to announce the agreement with his state and territory counterparts.
“Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. And we know with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, what we’ve seen is a massive increase in global energy prices,” he said.
Not another Russia! Russia! Russia! hoax. The energy prices here have been going up since 2016.
Russia wasn’t rolling tanks through Kherson in 2016.
At the same press conference, one photographer captured the frightening photo of Emperor Albotine reaching out to strangle the Australian economy with renewable lightning bolts arcing from his pasta-pasty hands while Force-kicking the baseload can down the road.

Sigh, another anti-Trump feast on Sky with James Morrow and his guest Mick Mulvaney. The same thing every week, James asks for an anti-Trump screed and Mulvaney delivers. No analysis just it’s Trump’s fault whatever it is. I’m getting to the point where I might just skip his program.
What is amazing is how many of the lowlifes who were given a prominent position by Trump were unworthy and disloyal but then when you see what else is crawling in DC he didn’t have much choice.
This gets better & better.
Low energy. I’m not alleging that only ‘right wing’ accounts were targeted but neither would it make any difference if some ‘left-wing’ accounts were targeted too, given that the Dems have their critics on the Left as well that they are only too happy to marginalize or silence.
For starters, Hunter was on a six figure retainer for Burisma even though he has no energy industry experience nor can he speak Ukrainian. Sure, none of that was part of a quid pro quo.

BTW, the NY Post were locked out of their Twitter account for 9 days back in Oct 2020 which gave the Dems enough time to get WaPo to signal to the MSM what the Dem line was on the laptop story, and then to find 51 intel lowlifes to go on the record and lie about the story and thus give cover to the MSM killing the story with a pillow. But, yes, it otherwise got a ‘good’ run.

“but that does not mean that left-wing accounts were not targeted as well”
LOL, why yes, Monty is right, but as usual he’s being sly. Twitter did censor some leftists who went against the woke progressive Twitter orthodoxy, particularly on “trans issues”. Twitter censored “TERFs” such as Meghan Murphy, Kellie Jay Keen, Julie Bindel, Graham Linehan, Kathleen Stock, among others, none of these people could be described as “right-wing” or “far-right” but because they dared to question/critique nonsense such as “transwomen are women”…they were booted from the platform. James Lindsay was booted off Twitter back in August this year (before Elon took over) for using the word “groomers” to accurately describe trans pedo perverts who prey on young children.

The alternative is that, like many other people reasonably informed on the issue, m0nty=fa was aware that the lockout was for more than a single day, but lied through his teeth in the vague (and unfounded) hope that no-one would challenge him.

A most confusing report from the Telegraph. 88 suspected homicides over 24 years?
The independence of analysis used to support a police report which found claims of gay-hate killings had been exaggerated has been called into question, as emails between officers and academics were presented to an inquiry.
On Friday, New South Wales assistant Commissioner Anthony Crandell faced his fourth day of questioning about Strike Force Parrabell at the Special Commission of Inquiry into LGBTIQ hate crimes.
Parrabell was commissioned by Mr Crandell in 2015 following public scrutiny of NSW Police over the deaths or disappearances, of 88 gay or transgender people between 1976 and 2000.
Published in 2010, In Pursuit of Truth and Justice alleged these people were killed in “deliberate and brutal” anti-LGBTIQ attacks and police had, at times, turned a blind eye.
Then the NSW Police corporate sponsor for sexuality and gender diversity, Mr Crandell green-lit the Strike Force to “counter these allegations” and quell “moral panic”.
“I activated Strike Force Parrabell to investigate claims that (the deaths or disappearances) … were gay-hate crimes, and that police did not investigate these matters competently,” he wrote in an email shown to the Commission.
“In essence, though there is still some way to go investigatively, there is clear contrary evidence to earlier published research … that asserts prevalence of gay-hate crimes and inactivity of the NSWPF.”
In Parabell’s final report published in 2017, as few as eight cases were found to have evidence of being hate killings.
There were 19 suspected hate crimes, while 34 had no evidence and 25 had insufficient evidence.
In the report, it was suggested commentary had “exaggerated or even grossly exaggerated the scope of the underlying phenomenon”.
Under at times tense questioning by counsel assisting the Inquiry, Peter Gray SC, Mr Crandell admitted emails between police and the academics “looked like an attempt to reach consensus”.
The inquiry heard Flinders University academics were brought in to independently review the results of Parrabell investigators because Mr Crandell held concerns “police reviewing police may not be accepted by the LGBTIQ community”.
“I desperately wanted it reviewed because I wanted an independent perspective,” he said.
Over 18 months, Parrabell officers “subjectively” reviewed case files for indicators of gay-hate bias before their results were sent to the Flinders University researchers for review.
Numerous examples of correspondence between police and research lead Associate Professor Derek Dalton about their “collaborative effort” was shown to the Inquiry.
Mr Gray suggested the emails indicated the independent assessment had been compromised by the “opinions” of Parrabell investigators.
“Sometimes (well, very rarely actually) we have had to criticise NSWPF but, more often than not, our sense is that we have taken pains to defend aspects of the review,” Dr Dalton wrote to Parrabell officers after finishing the review.
“However, it bears emphasizing that some inherent criticism (all of it levelled at police from a past era) will ensure our report is taken seriously by the public.”
“Would you agree that rather than an independent assessment … Dr Dalton saw his role as providing public relations for New South Wales Police?” Mr Grey questioned.
“Maybe the whole endeavour was misguided.”
Mr Crandell baulked at the suggestion, saying that while he was confused by some of the wording used, both police and the academic team strove to have the results stand up against “inevitable criticism”.
“In essence there was collaboration to determine differences in findings and reasons,” he said.
“I still wanted them to provide an independent and transparent review. I’m not sure why he (Dr Dalton) would write that.”
The Inquiry previously heard the metric by which police judged whether a hate crime was present did not have any evidence to support its use and was developed by NSW Police.
Mr Crandell’s colleague, Sergeant Geoff Steer, the former co-ordinator of the disbanded Bias Crime Unit, had “major reservations”.
“I can tell you, from 21 years of policing and 16 years studying and dealing with bias crimes that these work when used as they are designed to be used,” he wrote.
“If used as a checklist, they do not work.”
Mr Crandell defended the work of the Parrabell report, saying it was a “difficult job” but police had taken a systematic approach to review the documents inaccessible to the authors of the paper which had first identified the 88 deceased or missing people.
“I felt I had sufficient expertise in the team to arrive at that determination,” he said.
The Inquiry before Justice John Sackar continues.
Just fucking wow. Go David Warner, James Erskine and go now. And whoever else is implicated. Daily Telegraph:
David Warner’s bombshell statement about withdrawing from his leadership ban review on Test eve was done in consultation with his lawyers and the Australian Cricketers Association, but not his manager James Erskine.
A gap appears to have developed in the dynamic of Warner and Erskine’s working relationship, with cricket sources adamant Erskine went “off the reservation” with his explosive claims on SEN Radio on Thursday that players were “told to tamper” in a Hobart dressing room in 2016.
There’s a perception that by being his manager, Erskine was doing Warner’s bidding in his stunning interview on SEN, but News Corp has been told by numerous cricketing sources that Erskine spoke without Warner’s knowledge or consent.
Erskine has Warner’s best interests at heart and News Corp is not suggesting any issue exists between the pair, but the fact is it’s one of Erskine’s directors Tom Matson, and not Erskine himself who is Warner’s day-to-day manager (albeit they work alongside each other at the same company).
Warner’s shock “public lynching” statement that he was pulling out of the independent process to review his lifetime leadership ban, would have come as a shock to his management because it was written and executed without their input.
It was only Warner’s lawyers and the Australian Cricketers Association via their boss Todd Greenberg who were involved.
Erskine’s advice to his client to remain silent in the years’ following the Cape Town incident has served Warner extremely well and arguably greatly strengthened Warner’s public position amid all the conjecture that still exists over what happened in 2018.
But many in the game feel Erskine contradicted his own advice in his SEN interview where he dug up skeletons from the ball tampering scandal.
“He (Warner) has shut up, he protected Cricket Australia, he protected his fellow players on my advice, because at the end of the day no one wanted to hear any more of it and he’s got on playing cricket,” said Erskine.
But Erskine continued, fuelled by the frustration he clearly feels towards Cricket Australia for what Warner has gone through, making comments which have reverberated through the game.
“The truth will come out,” Erskine said.
“You’d have to be a blind black labrador to not realise that there was far more than three people (Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft) involved in this thing.
“There’s lots of people … there’s two cricketers at the time that said, why don’t we just put our hands up and tell the truth, they can’t fire all of us.
“That’s what’s happened.
“ … (Two officials) in the changing room in Hobart (in 2016) were basically berating the team for losing to South Africa.
“Warner said, ‘we’ve got to reverse swing the ball. And the only way we can reverse swing the ball is basically by tampering with it’ – so they were told to do it.”
Warner and his family and other Australian team members were hounded by television cameras on Friday morning in Adelaide, in part due to the fallout from Erskine’s comments which were met with vehement denials from multiple officials from Cricket Australia at the time.
“They were really unhelpful and I think unfounded comments,” said CA chief Nick Hockley on SEN.
“I think that’s totally counter to the objective of the process and I think it’s precisely what David was hoping would not happen when he applied for it to be done in private.
“ … Some of the comments that I think have added to this situation have clearly not been his (Warner’s) own, they’ve been via representatives. So I’m really keen to see how he’s going and how he’s feeling following his decision to withdraw.”
Greenberg also responded to Erskine’s comments.
“I heard those comments from James Erskine yesterday, I can’t speak to any of that. I don’t know to be fair. I know James is a very passionate advocate for those he represents … he’s got every right to be upset at how that matter was handled,” said Greenberg on SEN.
“I don’t personally think it’s helpful for any of us to look backwards. I think we’ve done that already way too much … that’s probably been lost in the last 24 hours and I hope we can start looking forward rather than backwards.”
Even if Twitter shadowbanned the right more than the left… they are entitled to. They don’t have to be fair. They are a private company and they don’t have to be balanced.

I’ve been trying to go for quality not quantity, but even so it isn’t often I strike gold.
Meh. He gets chucked down a polls shaft eventually.
As I reported earlier, the Commonwealth’s Australian Commission for Law Enforcement Integrity has initiated an investigation into ACT Policing’s handling of the Higgins case after a complaint was received by them.
Given that the brief of this body is to investitate criminal corruption in federal agencies, this would seem to be applying the proverbial sledge hammer to crack a walnut.
One might be led thereby to entertain the possibility that some persons other than, and of more reputational weight than Mr. Drumgold, have an existential interest in the ACT police’s view of this matter being shut down decisively.
This is turning out to be potentially bigger than the Pell miscarriage of justice.

A new coal mine in a climate emergency!
Michael Gove, the secretary of state responsible for “levelling up” the UK’s regions, recently justified his approval of the UK’s first new coal mine in 30 years with “increased use of CCS”. There’s only one problem: CCS won’t cancel out Woodhouse Colliery’s emissions, which are estimated at 400,000 tonnes a year, because it barely exists.
That, and the Telstra retail analogy, are different to a publishing platform. They are two separate laws.

The judge quietly reviewed some papers and then said “Please tell me why you are seeking a divorce”. “Because” the man said “I live in a two-story house”. The Judge replies “Rubbish! What kind of a reason is that? What is the big deal about a two-story house?” The man answers “Well, one story is ‘I have a headache’ and the other story is ‘It’s that time of the month’”.

The blonde did as she was told and followed the man. “Come in and close the door” the man said. She did. He then said “Now get on your knees”. She did. “Now take down my zipper”. She did. “Now go ahead take it out…” he said. She reached in and grabbed it with both hands… then paused. The man closed his eyes and whispered “Well… go ahead”. The blonde slowly brought her mouth closer to it and while holding it close to her lips, she said… “HELLO MUM… CAN YOU HEAR ME?”

Elon Musk is Exposing the Sheer Hatred of the LEFT
From Armstrong Economics –
“Many people are starting to say that Elon Musk should run for president. Musk was born and grew up in Pretoria, South Africa. He has now become the richest man in the world worth around $171 billion. He cannot run for president since he was not born in the USA. He is exposing the corruption of the LEFT releasing Twitter docs that prove beyond question what I have been saying that the LEFT is always EVIL for they cannot sleep at night worrying about what others are doing. They were creating secret blacklists. Make no mistake about it – the LEFT absolutely hates you and would much rather see you dead than coexist. History stands as a witness to that statement.
Twitter began “to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.” The LEFT is pure evil and they will destroy the United States because they do not believe in any of our freedoms. It must be their way or no way. They will rig elections and do whatever it takes to oppress, us, their hated opponents. We need to be controlled and that is what they see as the answer to all their theories. This appears to have been just part of human nature for it is one of the Ten Commandments that was intended to outlaw their objectives. Make no mistake about it – they despise you.
I went behind the Berlin Wall before it fell. I saw what these people always do. I went with a friend to visit his family who was trapped there. His cousin gave us a tour and when anyone was remotely close, she would do the typical Communist routine how wonder what the government was and took such great care. As soon as nobody was near, she would curse them out. One of the film crew on the Forecaster grew up in East Germany. The day the Wall fell, his father was able to get his Stasi file. He saw everyone he thought were his friend was ratting on him. He came home and began punching holes in the walls. He thought his father was insane. Then he was pulling out microphones. From then on, he would never speak to anyone again except for his family.
Let’s get honest here. The LEFT trusts no one. They collected evidence on everyone for they were the notorious Stasi of East Germany. When the wall came down, the extent of the secret police operations targeted against their own people was mind-blowing. What surfaced was their “smelling jars” collection. Yes, the Stasi used odor recognition to keep tabs on anyone they suspected. The Stasi often collected the samples covertly by breaking into homes to steal a suspect’s used underwear. They then kept them in jars in case they turned up missing to hunt them down using dogs.
This is what the LEFT has achieved here in the United States. Censoring everything and creating this cancel culture. I am so glad I am not 18, yet sad for my grandchildren will have to endure this horrible rise of the LEFT. I will celebrate the day when America splits for those who are LEFT should go to California and those who disagree should move South and NEVER the two shall meet. But that is not how things will work. The LEFT will then wage war against what they see as their hated opposition.
They will never be satisfied just separating. They must oppress and crush all freedom – just pick up a history book and you will see – there has NEVER been an exception to their end goal. They will never allow their opponent to just live in peace. They have no problem surrendering all their own rights as long as nobody is allowed to have the freedom to oppose their beliefs.”

Senator Kyrsten Sinema Leaves Senate Democrats
From Armstrong Economics –
“Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema has courageously announced today that she has left the Democratic Party and has registered as an independent. What is so impressive is that she is calling out the absolute corruption in our political system. She stated that she was abandoning the Democratic Party and turning her back on the “broken partisan system in Washington” that prioritizes denying the opposition party a win rather than “delivering for all Americans.”
This is precisely what I warned at the WEC. It no longer matters what anyone says that they stand for in either party. When they get to DC, they are told they will vote however the Party tells them to vote. You can run for or against Abortion or save the whales. When you get there, all that means nothing.
She is absolutely correct and this is the very reason the United States is collapsing. When Biden came to office, he went out of his way to reverse everything Trump did regardless if it was correct or not. Washington has simply become a political war where one side must vote against whatever the other wants. This has degenerated into simply war and it is no longer about the people or the country. It is about voting against whatever the opposition wants.
We need to return to this spirit of independence where a candidate actually does what they claim they stand for. As it is right now, all we have is a bunch of monkeys who need no brains and never have to do what they say they stand for because they just raise their hand when told to do so. We need to return to real Independents who will vote for what they actually run for.”

XXXX Bitter – the drink of the Gods, the beverage they serve in Heaven along with handfuls of nuts grown in the golden soils of Queensland and ripened under the gaze of the life giver Sol.
Beer & Nuts, mate – it’s wot Queensland is made of.
Wodger:
Perhaps it does seem an over reaction Wodger, but when you need to open a walnut and all the other methods have failed, then you need to get something that will do the job, not just give the impression of trying to do an investigation and conveniently failing.
Black Ball:
I’m curious about the necessity of having an Academic Team in the investigation. Let’s admit it – Universities are not the natural habitat of neutral observers and Seekers of Truth – not for the last fifty years anyway.
It smacks of a final filter for the investigation.
Dover Beach:
… and much better tits.
Let me guess – there’s a new Open Fredde.
Yes?
It’s not ‘healthy’ to have a serious chest infection causing you breathing difficulties and chest pain and apparently just keep going to work regardless.
What could that possibly have to do with a covid vaccine?
Can we go back to 2016 when progressives were sighing over a slew of celebrity cessations, seemingly since Trump was president?
Old Ozzie:
We need the Sweet Meteor of Death to smack a bit of common bloody sense back into the human race.
Dot:
I wouldn’t vote for Tulsi because she’s Tulsi. Bob Dole and Mike Pence have nothing to do with it.
Tulsi is a Democrat who is being touted as acceptable to wavering voters.
But she will only vote the Democrat platform – like Pence – when it is important enough to do so.
Tulsi is just another Lucy to Charlie Brown.
The Democrats have been pulling this shit for decades and the Republicans are either utterly unaware or in the stands laughing at Charlie Brown.
Boambee John:
I assume that “Thermonuclear” relates to boosted (fission/fusion) or (fission/fusion/fission) warheads, not just tactical (fission) warheads. Most of the big buggers are designed to dig ICBM silos or the Russian war fighting HQs out of the ground, as opposed to tactical warheads used against fixed targets like bridges/HQ/undispersed formations, etc.
Nevertheless, degrading a CEP of 50/100 meters to a 500 meter is going to allow a fair degree of survivability of enemy assets that need to be destroyed. I’m sure one of the targeting options would allow the US to use 1Mt instead of the Trident dial-a-yield weapons.
The point I’m trying to make is the US has gone to accurate small yield weapons over 5/10Mt Notveryaccurate Russian and Chinese weapons. This makes the loss of the GPS much more of a hindrance to the US than to Russia/China.
Unless of course the US has an alternate GP System up there and that would explain the use of the unmanned mini Shuttle thingy (whose name escapes me atm) to launch a new set of satellites about the size of a Lego Brick.
