BREAKING: Elon Musk confirms US political candidates were blacklisted while running for office
The hairy Scottish personage who inspired me to state, “I will never wear a face nappee again, willingly or otherwise and anyone who tries to make me will experience the ancient Martial Art of Eckee Thoomp” (and not in a good way). 🙂
This whole “Twitter thing” is really confusing in the following sense.
Elon Musk has basically admitted that his company (he owns it) has been up to “no good”. In fact, some really bad shit. Lying, cheating and stealing plus more.
There are so many people that have been affected by this, that the list is endless. People have had their earning capacity diminished, their businesses bankrupted, they have been slandered and labeled “conspiracy theorists”, advertisers mislead, voters have been disenfranchised, political parties have been smothered (just to name a few of the ramifications). I’m only scratching the surface here.
They will all be seeking redress via the courts. The number of claimants will stretch from DC to the Texas border. And who are they going to sue? Well, the obvious answer is “Twitter”. And who owns Twitter? Yeah, I already covered that.
So here is the big question. So why the hell would Elon Musk go and open himself up to massive litigation after paying a record $42 billion for the company. That’s insane. A smart man would just shut his mouth.
I think everyone would agree that the bloke isn’t an idiot. He’s a genius.
The only conclusion I can reach is that he “has the goods”. He now has EVERYTHING on these people.
Elon will likely end with a $42 billion business for FREE with zero liability.
Unfortunately, the American taxpayers will be picking up the tab for a Democrat (and RINO) Government that is corrupt to the core. But in the long run, it will be worth every last penny.
He didn’t disrupt our energy, Western sanctions did.
Anyone remember when Lefties liked to quote Pearl Buck to Righties, saying a society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable?
That headline is about as believable as this headline, which I saw today:
Vladimir Putin ‘securing Venezuela escape route’ if Russia losses war in Ukraine (8 Dec)
I love the reporting going on right now, it’s wonderfully silly. Something is happening in between and underneath all of this guff, but you will be doing well to find out what the reality really is.
The next logical step in this is for Elon to release how Twitter was actually being run by the Whitehouse, DNC, FBI and CIA.
He knew nothing of this when he handed over the $42 billion big ones.
No wonder these people are shitting themselves. But it’s just the beginning. There are going to be plenty of other big fish yet to fry. Big tech and Fake News are next in line.
National Geographic’s B737-800 just taxi’d past.

Give big stupid government an inch and they’ll be hastily attempting to bring your life to an end in any way they might be able to (at somebody else’s expense, of course).

People within big tech, fake news and Government will eventually start to squeal.
Look at the FBI whistleblowers. The snowball has only just started.
Musk now has access to the medias “preferred communication tool”. Not just their “tweets”, but their DM’s as well. He knows exactly what’s been going on (and can prove it).
There is no way in the world Elon would be exposing himself to litigation without a rock solid backup plan.
Big in America … 🙂

DIY bloke almost caused a disaster today.
He replaced the exhaust and muffler on his truck with a second hand unit. His first trip with the repair to pick up grain for a farmer out our way resulted in twenty spot fires over a fifteen kilometre stretch.
Thankfully the sides of the roads are still a half green and today was mid twenties and calm.
Two weeks later with a warm northerly blowing you would have had a fifteen kilometre fire front.
He was lucky but that’s no recommendation.
Not much love for Perf today. It was a lovely day to be drinking beer on the Swan on a gentle broad reach. Sea breeze is a bit too strong – time to retire to the yacht club lawn.

The rim of her mouth was golden …
But that’s not her
It’s only an image of her
Just a trick of the light …
Covid has taken over all of our lives in one way or another. Whether that’s because of higher prices for everything, the loss of school time for the kids or business slowing and jobs being lost, life is a lot different from where we all were in 2019. And everyone knows it.
Cassie wrote a great post about the way young women of her business acquaintance think and react to current events. It was a really good thread with many contributors noting that they, too, feel overwhelmed – you might say, had it – with where the world is headed, especially when such hairbrained ideas inhabit the minds of the next couple of generations. So how to fix it?
I don’t think that making climate change the issue will change minds. I’m not suggesting that we should give up on the subject altogether. But because it’s one of the areas that has been taken over completely by the left, and so much so that among the young viewpoints are now firmly in place that Gaia is dying from CO2 emissions.
Yes, higher electricity prices may help to dislodge the chaff inside the brains of some of these climate warriors. Yet after years of school indoctrination, even out in the suburbs there are many young people who think the same way as their inner city cousins: “the west is bad and is screwing over the environment and the government must spend more to fix it.”
One thing that’s happened because of covid and the jabs is that there are a lot more sceptical people. Maybe that’s because covid proved not to be as dangerous as the authorities asserted. Or maybe it was because the jabs have not been the successful health intervention that was originally promised, and in fact have caused too many serious side effects. And then there’s the group who were dismayed if not completely p1ssed off that they were forced to take something that they didn’t want just to keep their jobs.
The opening up of what really happened over these last three years, imho is the only way to break the left’s hold. As with the revelations now coming out of Twitter, because of Musk’s takeover, the covid agenda, which used the CCP playbook to control whole populations and stymie any alternative discussion is what could fully bring down the totalitarians. If covid is fully revealed, only then will climate change be realised as the bulldust story it always was.

Hope you are right, but even on this blog there are staunch supporters of that failed policy.
Earlier tonight I watched a speech by Freeman Dyson. He has a somewhat paradoxical position because he acknowledges the models do a good job in certain respects and a bad job in others. He raised the issue of soil carbon sequestration as a possible strategy. That’s not new, many years ago a French Ag. scientist was pushing it. Dyson thinks the current strategies are misguided, unlikely to work, and the risk is overstated. I like his approach because instead of the screeching and raging he puts forward alternative approaches.
Putin Says Russia Could Adopt “Preemptive Strike” Concept Of US
Vladimir Putin said Russia was considering whether to adopt what he called Washington’s concept of a pre-emptive strike.
…
“First of all, the United States has the concept of a preemptive strike. Second, it is developing a disarming strike system,” Putin told reporters in Kyrgyzstan.
Putin said Moscow might need to think about adopting US “ideas for ensuring their own security.”
“We’re just thinking about it,” he said.
“If a potential adversary believes that it is possible to use the concept of a preemptive strike, but we do not, then nevertheless this makes us think about the threats that such ideas pose to us.”
Putin claimed that Russia’s cruise missiles and hypersonic systems were “more modern and even more efficient” than those in the United States.
On Wednesday, Putin warned that nuclear tensions were rising, although he insisted that Moscow would not be the first to deploy atomic weapons.
At the same he said: “If we aren’t the first to use them under any circumstances, then we will not be the second to use them either.”
Richard Feynman
Supposed to have been a top level meeting of Indonesian ministers at the time of the East Timor intervention. They were speculating as to the Australian reaction. A senior minister is said to have walked to the window, and claimed that “an Australian F 111 is capable of putting a guided bomb through this window, as we speak?” Disclaimer – may, or may not be true.
like what ?
“Trickle down” economics would work but people have NFI how much tax they pay.
A minimum wage earner’s value of labour is taxed at a far higher rate than the simple income tax rate that may apply.
You have to look at payroll tax, taxes on superannuation, GST on worker related insurances, tax components of allocated overhead, income tax, tariffs, GST, excise taxes, stamp duties, direct or indirect rates and land taxes, charges such as registration and government licensing, import charges and the overzealous imposition of fines.

Soil carbon sequestration.
Geo engineering.
Genetic engineering of plants to increase growth. This has already been done but only a few months ago and the results aren’t that spectacular; on a broad scale could be significant.
He didn’t mention this but may have had it in mind. What I would like to see is a genetically engineered rubisco alternative. It is the most abundant protein on earth. Rubisco is the key enzyme for fixing carbon. It is very, very inefficient which is why any increase in CO2 concentration helps plants. That is botany 101. That it hasn’t been done suggests it might not be possible.

The only person in this fiasco I’m concerned about is the baby.
Did you watch the interview? Are the parents not concerned about the child? It’s not a zero sum game, they have the blood available, a number of Doctors agree with their position. If you are having a huge surgery, why use blood that may have an increased risk of clotting?
Keep digging that hole rosie.
There is no evidence whatsoever that there is an increased risk of clotting from vaxxed blood transfusions.
My only comment re the parents was they apparently claimed they would abide by the court order and wanted to spend time with their baby then tried to prevent pre operation work being done.
I don’t know why the NZ government refused to let them use unvaxxed blood, though apparently there were limits re plasma as some needed to be sent to Australia for processing

Hairy has booked us to return with Qantas from the UK in early February on a flight from Seoul; he has taken a Korean Airlines flight from London to Seoul so that we can have a four day holiday in Korea on the way back and he can visit the DMZ, on his bucket list, and the business class fare was competitive. Qantas does the usual gouging, but by that time we will be wanting to sleep our way home.

This would not be happening if the parents were Maori or Muslim, would it? The administrators wouldn’t dare. So as far as I’m concerned this is a race/religion issue, with Christians being denied parental rights that are sacrosanct to others.
A bit like the Virgin Flight Flap Emergency.
Is there some sort of back room bet going on, amongst the various media outlets, around who can publish the best double entendres and get away with it?
Anyone who thinks anyone but NT News can win, is kidding themselves. They just need to dip into their archives.

The opening up of what really happened over these last three years, imho is the only way to break the left’s hold. As with the revelations now coming out of Twitter, because of Musk’s takeover, the covid agenda, which used the CCP playbook to control whole populations and stymie any alternative discussion is what could fully bring down the totalitarians. If covid is fully revealed, only then will climate change be realised as the bulldust story it always was.
And remind them on every possible occasion that the Klimate Alarmists are already moving to base their future Klimate response on the COVID response, which did so much harm.
Not from me it doesn’t! I took a retired Bundeswehr Oberst ‘mile shooting’ last week, and we got him his mile with the Bergara 6.5. That well beyond its real range, but it’s a tack driver to 1000m.
Agree about barrel wear though, it’s due a rebarrel after about 2000.

Didn’t an F111 crew photograph in their Canberra office the 2 defense bods who questioned the utility of the F111?
Story goes that they photographed the wrong window, “getting” instead a senior ADF officer.
This short essay (first in a series) is more intriguing than the title suggests:
The Politics of Masturbation: Was the Sexual Revolution a Government Psy Op?
Dr. Peter McCullough: Covid “vaccines” are a US military program
This gibes with the interview with Dr. Mike Yeadon I posted a few days ago where he said that Event 201 was about the 12th such exercise over decades, commencing with the US Military and spreading worldwide and in every case the focus was on population control, not treatment.
Cats, if you haven’t seen the footage of Shrillary and various other imbeciles screeeching at top note, don’t – and consider yourselves lucky.

Ahhhhhh, the good old days.
Chris Bowen has asserted in parliament that Putin cannot stop the generation of power from wind and solar. Bowen has obviously never heard of the concept of a nuclear winter. If he wanted to, Putin could launch all or half of his nuclear arsenal which would blast enough dust into the upper atmosphere and reduce sun penetration for the entire globe.
It always amazes me how ignorant are the people who presume to govern us.
Rosie:
This is about Parent vs State rights and responsibilities. And as I’ve pointed out, it’s also about White Christian parents being refused choices they are legally entitled to that the Administrators would not even dream of denying other religions/races.
You may be comfortable with being ruled over by authoritarian governments, I am not. And it would appear these parents aren’t happy about it either.
Can it be?
Note: When the duped realize that they have been duped they tend to be angry and aggressive.
Why would he do that?
If that was the case then it’s been a failure. Why else would they still need to teach it in schools?
I see all the hype about the 6.5 Creedmoor and go to the gun safe and pat the 243.
My gun makes short work of kangaroos and shoots far enough and flat enough for anyone hunting. You just need to be far enough away that the roos aren’t too suspicious.
Too much gun for foxes, not much left to look at after a hit.
I am off to get my flu shots
To spite Bowen, of course. Bowen seems to think that he already did so for oil, coal and other power sources. Putin is all kinds of a villain but the energy prices are not his fault, these should be laid at the feet of all green governments and particularly those in western Europe.
Got through two thirds then gave up.
This is a quote from an interview with Dr Malhotra linked below. The reason I’ve highlighted the quote which relates to the Covid 19 response and roll out of untested “vaccines” is that it could equally apply to countering the climate lie and the damaging and potentially lethal roll out of renewables to replace our reliable energy systems.

Mater,
that was awesome and funny. As you said, the good old days. If that happened now, everyone on the ground would be suing for “trauma”, connected to said window smash.
Yes, but I just wonder why you think that’s a credible scenario?
He’s not a mad character out of a Bond film.
MY favourite Fact Check.
There’s a bit to digest, but it’s an interesting thesis.
The sexual revolution of the ’60s has sometimes been linked to Soviet destabilisation/demoralisation of the West, but what if it was driven by European Marxist exiles within Western institutions with an anti-fascist rationale?
rickw:
Beautiful work there.
I wish I had the skills, patience, and kit when I was younger.
A steadier hand would go a long way as well.
Nothing since the results are the same.
That’s like saying the identity of the murderer is of no consequence as the victim is dead.
Absent the sexual revolution and all that was set in its train, would we be here?

evil men like Marcuse
I read a long time ago that it was Weimar decadence that corrupted the US and by extension us
Bruce O’Newk:
And they wonder why young men are refusing to enlist. Why the Hell should they when shit like this is enforced and the Illegal Migrants pour over the border?
“Look at me! Look at me! How DARE you look at me!”
I’m not saying it’s a credible scenario though it is just as credible as Bowen’s blame shifting.
While you guys are on the subject of Big Guns, check out this little ripper.
Ouchies!
The coldest summer day in Australia and nobody notices
Weatherzone report that Thursday was the equal coldest morning ever recorded anywhere in Australia in summer time. Oddly, there were no preemptive emergency warnings the night before, no news stories announcing the area “might” hit a new record, no camera teams visited the scene and the BOM did not invent a Coldsnap Emergency Alert System to tell Australians to put on a jumper.
https://joannenova.com.au/2022/12/the-coldest-summer-day-in-australia-and-nobody-notices/
Chris Bowen is by far the dumbest member of any party to have been commissioned as an Australian federal government minister.
When people become more scared of the solutions to climate change than climate change itself, they will start to question the validity and importance of the issue to themselves. Faced with power blackouts, out of control energy bills and a crashing economy they might well agree to living with climate change as the lesser of two evils. Many may delve further and discover that they have been lied to and conned on a grand scale. But as with Covid, the great awakening will not occur overnight.
I dislike most of our pollimuppetts but Bowen is a standout. I think it’s the smug incompetence
As well as the damage the grub is doing to people.
No it isn’t. The sexual revolution had many influences one being reaction to largely fake portrayal of family in the media.
Dover, I came across this beautiful work. Would make Rabz happy as it looks like HOP time.
Genuinely gorgeous painting.
I’m always amazed at the old paintings with the quality of the fabrics and physical form even if I don’t particularly like the painting.
The wars did more to place women in the workforce then then the revolution.
Excellent point made by Julius Sanks at WUWT:
A way of mopping up otherwise unemployables?
The sexual revolution of the ’60s has sometimes been linked to Soviet destabilisation/demoralisation of the West, but what if it was driven by European Marxist exiles within Western institutions with an anti-fascist rationale?
More like a pro-Marxist rationale, since fascism and Marxism are both feathers of the same left wing. The fascist/Marxist clash is a fight to determine which of the two ideologies will rule.

And Michael P Senger has an article to add to that.

Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America’s Enemies by M. Stanton Evans, shows how European Marxists infiltrated the US State Dept, which led to actual American support for the communists in China.
GE already benefits us in multiple ways. What do you think has been happening in food production for the last several decades? Simply boosting CO2 is only one component of GE, it needs to be complemented with a range of other changes to maximise plant growth and nutrient value. Eg. Golden rice.
Steven Conroy from Victoria has phoned in.
Joe Ludwig must get a podium. The R-G-R years was a golden age of morons.
That’s always been obvious. It is why some doctors resent the deep penetration of Big Pharma into every area of their profession. We wanted small government, we wanted privatization, so it was inevitable that Big Pharma would come to be its own regulator. The writing was always on the script. Bit late to be whining about it because his dad died when the problem has been growing for decades.
Want to know who is devoid of talent and just going through the motions? Ask “Who have the Liars made Minister for Agriculture.”
As a child of a GP you don’t want for useless trinkets.
That WUWT link is interesting but why did the author use BTUs etc, virtually no one involved in science or engineering uses those units nowadays, makes a well reasoned article look I’ll informed.
John H:
Genetic engineering of plants to increase growth.
But the Greens won’t have it because genetic engineering of food is so dangerous! It’s got to be organic.
Yet they’re all for jabbing human arms with something that is genetically engineered.
So, their logic is that it can go directly into the bloodstream as long as it bypasses the stomach.
for “defence” they claim
Btw thanks to Dover for all the fine artworks you’ve featured! Alas some sad news today:
Russia’s main art museum goes up in flames as footage sparks panic in Moscow (10 Dec)
Sounds like an electrical fire in the ceiling. No word in the story on the artworks.
Since I’m on fire and art though I’ll put up this one I was having a look at just now:
Volcano Art (Smithsonian/USGS)
Some interesting artworks, such as of Graham Island which temporarily existed off Sicily and nearly caused a war.
If the same yardstick was being enforced impartially across NZ the big news item would be the whopper “stolen generations” programme whereby the NZ courts declare every ill child of a Jehova’s Witness to be a ward of the state so they may receive lifesaving blood transfusions.
… how European Marxists infiltrated the US State Dept, which led to actual American support for the communists in China.
European Marxists, eh?
Yeah, whatever.
General Marshall wasn’t in the State Dept., but he was still the point man in giving China and half of Western Europe to the Communists.
Burned all his Papers before he died, too.
They’ve just sold a bunch of them to Poland.
Poland also is taking delivery of Sth Korean tanks.
Both stories from this week.
Senger comes across as a bit unhinged, he thinks everything is a double psy ops. wasted time on one his videos telling us the ccp virus can’t cause a pandemic.
But the Greens won’t have it because genetic engineering of food is so dangerous!
It’s got to be organic.
You’re perpetuating a Myth there.
If The Greens ever had a pro Organic Agriculture Policy, it was in the distant past before Bob “My fellow Earthians” took command.
Since then, the Policy has been that Organic Agriculture is elitist and discriminates against the Poor.
Presumably, their voters don’t read the Party’s Policies, otherwise they wouldn’t vote for them.

Don’t even bother with Bob Sewage. He’s always been a fucking moron.
Sfw – the Yanks seem to use BTUs (which is ironic…British Thermal Units). The nat gas contracts are in mmBTU, which is pretty close to but not quite one GJ.
The laughable aspect of the organic movement is the claim it doesn’t use pesticides, it does, and one of their favourites was rotenone because it is naturally derived. They stopped using it circa 2000 because it is a very dangerous chemical that can cause Parkinson’s Disease.
So it’s:
NAME WHY
Bowen makes a meal of everything he goes near (fails upward)
Keneally had been brought in by the faceless men of the Liars (Nobody’s Girl) to be NSW
Premier & lost in the greatest landslide evah. But was too dumb to understand
that she didn’t fit the Seat of Fowler (fails upward)
Turnbull Any port in a storm and any political party to get him to the PM-ship. Brought
down a government because he thought it was owed him
Rudd Marketed beautifully, but then, like every other product, reality hit home with
the consumer – a dud.
Morrison Managed himself right out of the job by supping with the Liar Devils in Nat Cab
while turfing out every liberal democratic principal that his party ever had
Ludwig destroyed an entire industry overnight
This didn’t happen. What we have is highly regulated industry acting as agencies for the government.
It’s good the guy has reminded people. There’s no economic scaling with renewballs. In fact some economists have suggested there’s negative scaling. In other words, the more renewballs more negative economies of scale.
It’s the worst form of energy production ever devised so of course the green left dive for it.
It’s a big call, and probably based in ignorance of history. Just like like the ‘worst Prime Minister’ calls, based on those who were in office in the caller’s lifetime.
Even a cursory delve into the history of State and Federal MPs should bring us back to Earth. Our history is replete with scoundrels, crooks, fraudsters, and worse sitting in State and Federal Parliaments.
The consistent quality of Henny Pennys is that that have no idea about history.
even quoting the falsehood of “tickle down” is acknowledging the lies of the left. In reality it “trickles up” as business pays their employees, suppliers, landlords and especially the government before capital is rewarded, if at all, and even if there is no revenue.
Wealth clearly trickles up.
From the comment at 11:27am:
Yet they’re all for jabbing human arms with something that is genetically engineered.
Greens Health Policy is that all Vaccines are Mandatory by law.
As I said above, their voters mustn’t read their Election Manifesto.
So, their logic is that it can go directly into the bloodstream as long as it bypasses the stomach.
Not making sense there.
One of the criticisms of Vaccination is that injection isn’t proven to be a method to induce an immune response.
