Hundreds are in jail without due process because the scum on the Jan 6 committee and their MSM accomplices lied about this. Sicknick is shown assisting the peaceful protestors after the Jan 6 committee claimed he was bashed to death by protestors!
Than of course there is Ray Epps and other provocateurs openly inciting without consequence. The FBI exoneration of Trump; pelosi’s complicity. Everything about Jan 6 is a lie and a breakdown of democratic rights and due process.

The Sicknick stuff is indeed extremely weak, because it started with DemonRat lies that he was murdered during the so-called “insurrection”. Those lies then had to be covered up with a fanciful story.
Good to see that you have finally recognised the weakness of the DemonRat position. Idiots like you and your ilk fell for it “because you want to believe”.
The Twatter files are important because they show the fascist collaboration between Big Government and Big Business to deprive citizens of their Constitutional rights. Fascist idiots like you and your ilk claim that there “is no juice “because you don’t want to believe” the truth. You can’t handle the truth.

I’m not sure you need this level of complexity really. The executor role should really be procedural only.

Until now I’ve not commented (at the Cat) on the Ukraine war.
The only comment I have ever made in real life, was when sometime in the first few days of the war, my opinion was solicited by a random member of the public:
It will likely end in only one manner; at some point Ukraine is going to have to take a standing count.
Okay…
If true, might be time to shut down the ‘gold squad’?
I’m curious to hear the views of Cats who know about such things with regard to TheirABC’s ‘expose’ of goings-on at the Perth Mint.
It is claimed that they sold slightly contanimated gold (bit of silver and copper) to the Chicoms. Apparently it was within international standards, but possibly not compliant with the contract.
Also, they have a photo on the website of a tattoed from head to foot bikie who did business there. They say he should have been checked out before he was allowed to do transactions there.
I have no idea about these claims. Can anyone help?
Two months of jury deliberations? WTF?
Rabz got off lightly. 🙂
I’ve met the sons and daughters of high ranking Commonwealth public servants over the years. Some of them are spectacularly dysfunctional, the son of a Secretary who fried his brain with every drug he could lay his hands on comes to mind.
In this case, instilling ethics seems not to have been very successful.
It used to be possible to walk in off the street to the Perth Mint with $9999 cash and buy gold bullion or coins over the counter without any checks on your ID. Even heavily tattooed bikies festooned with giant gold chain necklaces were welcomed as customers.
For whatever reason, the Mint became a bit sensitive about who was buying their gold with cash, but rumour has it that there was a string of ancient old Asian ladies wandering in and out over a period of a couple of weeks purchasing smallish (2-3 ounces) amounts of gold, eventually adding up to a couple of million or more and the red flags went up.
Shortly thereafter it became necessary to establish an account with the 100 points of ID and two valid credit cards and all orders had to made online. No more cash sales.
The “polluted” gold sold to the Chunks was within the international standard of 99.99% pure but some bright spark at the Mint thought that doping the Chunk’s gold with a smidgin more silver would save around $600,000 and still be within the international purity standards, i.e 99.992 instead of 99.997
Apparently and allegedly, the Chunks did a random assay test on one of their ingots and detected the minuscule pollution and the honking and bleating began.
Like the Victorian police, the Perth Mint’s reputation is now vanished down the dunny and will never be regained. All for a measly $600K.

*The real question, of course, is how deep into the Prince Harry-style of handbaggery this apparent ‘river-rafting tour guide’ of a father is.
Absolutely disgraceful, and teaches a salutory lesson or two to all up and coming men across this wide brown land:
1. ‘Happy wife’ does not necessarily mean ‘happy life’ when your nuts are so deep into a handbag they’re underneath her third travel pack of tissues;
2. You are an alleged husband AND father, not one of the abovementioned accessories; and
3. Have some say in the raising (and naming) of your own child, you monumental ponce – and if you’re good with this shit state of affairs, see points 1 and 2 above.
Riddle this
Rockdoctor, overnight and apropos of cops hiding in stations when rammed by people (yoof) in stolen cars:
1. If they’re going to ram the cops, what do you think they’re prepared to do to Joe Normal?;
2. This is the EXACT OPPOSITE of police work; and
3. It’s further compounded by them going after ‘low-hanging fruit’, i.e. Joe Normal and his confreres doing 64kph in a 60 zone and then claiming they’re saving lives by doing it;
One clue is the change from ‘Police Force’ to ‘Police Service’. It marked a change from being a force used against shit people to a service – except that it’s a service for the government of the day rather than the average punter.
Semicolon fail.
Gez, what Burns did with the Civil War series was unique. It was always going to have faults and biases.
We ask ourselves have our politicians always been this horrible and venal. I quick scan of the US around the CW will give you the answer.
PJW has a new clip up on madness and weird behaviour in US cities (Adams and his advice to whites makes an appearance). Of course, everyone now has a phone so the question is, is it more prevalent or is it more filmed? I witnessed some extremely bad behaviour by a shop employee a week ago, not screaming mind, just unwarranted OTT abuse. But because I didn’t have my phone out it didn’t really happen.
Also, I wouldn’t have a clue how to film on my camera anyway or where to send it. 😀

An autogynephile pervert who puts on women’s underwear, clothing, wig and lipstick and “identifies” as a woman to get sexually aroused. These males are particularly dangerous.
Transwomen are NOT women.
Last night, on the thread titled “Some thoughts on mothers, drag queens, trans, groomers & grooming“, our resident fascist equated the rights of “trans perverts” with the civil rights of blacks and Jews. An interesting equation. At least we now know where he stands when it comes to the sexual grooming of children.

Lee. Because of his views, Foote would now be cancelled and he would never be included in any documentary made now.

Sicknick is shown assisting the peaceful protestors after the Jan 6 committee claimed he was bashed to death by protestors!
The Jan 6 committee did no such thing. Stop lying, cohenite.
On this occasion, m0nty=fa is probably correct.
It was DemonRat “authorities”, close to the event, and well before the J6 Committee was established, who claimed, wrongly, that Sicknick was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher. When he was found to be still alive after that announcement, the lying liars had to change the story.
As Carlson himself has said, the error on Sicknick was made by the media with premature reports, not the authorities.
It’s a bit weird for Carlson to be playing Stuart Littlemore two years after the fact, but that is how weak his point is. Yes, some media outlets reported wrongly at the time. This was quickly amended. Why bring it up years later? Ah, because he can pretend that there was a conspiracy. Predictable and stupid.
I find it endlessly amusing that every time that there is a Labor government, certain wildbeest poke their airheads above the herd to scribble panegyric comics of no
literary merit in praise of Labor ‘womanhood?’.
Of course the ‘authors’ are publically funded and bookshops comply with instructions by swamping the shelves with the rubbish.
History proves that the vast majority of these classics leave the store via the loading dock rather than the front door.
That said, apparently the current Wong comic has found favour amongst the gym rat/cage fighter fraternity.

Dig deeper. What was the source for the “some media outlets” story? Did someone in authority tell them? Was it a DemonRat high on the Congressional ladder? Did the media then publish the fake story (“Fake news”?) without checking because it was “Too good a story to check”? Can those who published such an inflammatory story be trusted? Are all j’ismists tools of the political fascist left?
So many questions, so few trying to find the answers.
Munster is only right about anything by accident. Putting with a turds like him and not calling them out is how we got to this point in time. Being ‘nice’ has never worked and never will.

Surely, as a “professional” j’ismist, you should have recognised that the availability of new evidence about a controversial event is indeed “something new”? Or wasn’t that included in the DemonRat talking points that you have been parroting since yesterday?
Yes rosie. I remember we went through a stage of worrying about our weight – those horrible puppy fat years between childhood and teenager. Then, suddenly, we all had waists and hips and something resembling a bust and it was all over. Most thankfully hidden by the box pleats.
I forgot the other horrors – zits. And for some of us – braces of the most metallic “Jaws” type. And boys that suddenly became foreign beings of great fascination.
There was no cutting, no starving or bingeing. Just grim determination to pass exams, not to get into playground arguments, to endure “games” that we were lousy at while others shone like stars in the firmament.

“They said it was an absurd waste of time, but now, the progressive coastal regions of Oregon and Democrats in Idaho are getting a little worried about the “Greater Idaho Movement,” with at least 11 eastern Oregon counties officially voting to leave the state and join their more conservative neighbors in Idaho.”
That’s the advantage of more guns than people: if the Dems try to prevent serious secession of red states those states will have an instant militia numbered in the millions, which would eat the woke US Army for breakfast.
Damn your eyes, Sir.
Corporal Captain Viscount mØnty of Malmo’s understanding of the military sciences
is second to nearly none.
Not rare enough. A friend’s daughter has had horrific episodes of it for over seven years and seems to be now getting the better of it. During the worst of it she wouldn’t speak to her mother though could not explain why when she got better.
Looks like Kurt Schlichter’s idea of The Split is happening.
calli, anorexia is no longer a thing in academic circles as the only two successful Phd candidates doing work with positive results in Australia have not had clinical applications for final years approved.
My mother had a depressive episode in the mid 80s and was briefly hospitalised for a couple of weeks. When visiting, the ward was practically filled with anorexics.
Major General mUntgomery’s forays into military wrongology always brings a smile.
Timing is everything when you claim someone is killled by rioters, you use the death as a political prop but they actually died two days later of multiple strokes.
The cause of death was donut fryers, not visitors to the Capitol.
Ranga – also called a Bommodore, for obvious reasons.
Err, yes, that is exactly what will happen. When you have a quota, and there are all sorts of gold stars and elephant stamps (both formal and informal) for making quota, you will get recruiters passing over better qualified men to make quota.
See above. If you don’t meet quota it won’t be that the numbers didn’t fall that way on objective grounds. It will be that you didn’t “search harder”.
Anorexia is so yesterday.
Why trans kids are now ‘coming out’ as animals (7 Mar)
“You’re xenogender if you feel more akin to animals or plants or foods than humans. It’s funny, but it’s also frightening. There’s a girl on TikTok who explains very seriously that her gender is bird – a cardinal specifically, ey/em pronouns. And several people I’ve found identify as cake. Cake is actually just one of a smorgasbord of available gastro-genders.”
I’m in a sexual relationship with airplanes — so I go on vacation a lot (6 Mar, via Instapundit)
“Rodo, who said she’s spent nearly $4,267 on model airplanes, revealed that she identifies as objectum sexual. Yes, that’s a real thing. Also known as objectophilia, this particular love-match occurs when individuals develop strong sexual or romantic feelings for a specific inanimate object”
Mental illness seems to be rising. I hope this stuff isn’t as harmful as anorexia, which is really nasty. Although I suppose identifying as cake could have a similar effect, since whales tend not to live long.
Yes. Anorexia/bulimia was a “thing” in the mid-80’s and 90’s. I know of a couple of deaths and a few hospitalisations in my immediate circle.
Then came the cutting. It seemed to go with the Goth culture. Culminating in other forms of mutilation like multiple piercings and its most recent iteration – the tattoo.
And now it’s health fads and dietary restrictions and allergies which by and large appear to be a version of a/b that the sufferer can talk about openly. And so you have great big fat girls with acres of tattooed flesh who balk at meat because “unhealthy”.
Full circle.

Yep, anorexia is still stalking girls. I can name three hospitalized, and many more dabbling, and I don’t get out much. It’s also a younger phenomenon that I can recall in my schooldays and the public awareness campaigns I remember- ie, starting well whthin primary school, nine or ten years old.

We’ve seen this movie before.
Snork.
Don’t forget those safety ropes.
Careful, monty, you don’t want to break that airbrush. Monty wants to throw the NYT, WaPo, etc. under the bus as prematurely reporting that Sicknick was bashed and killed by protestors, reports based, purportedly, on sources within the “authorities”. We learned three months later that the Coroner knew within days that Sicknick had died of natural causes and showed no signs of having suffered blunt force trauma. In other words, authorities knew that Sicknick died of natural causes but declined to correct media reports that he was the victim of a violent assault, or correct the record while he was paraded in the rotunda of the Capitol building, in fact, they continued to do the opposite, Pelosi and others continued to pretend that he died due to injuries suffered on Jan. 6.
What the release of this footage does is corroborate other reports that protestors were often permitted to roam inside the Capitol, often in the presence of Capitol police officers, and confirm that this was known by the “authorities” from the very beginning, including the leaders of the House and Senate.

Why wouldn’t Ukraine defend Bakhmut when Russia is losing a thousand men per day trying and failing to take it?
Douglas Monty-Haig advanced his desk another 3 inches towards Berlin….
IF the position is bleeding the Russians with a very lopsided casualty rate then thats a valid holding tactic. Its a great position for a negotiated settlement with Ukraine being able to get the best deal it can.
IF its a 1-1 tradeoff or even worse the Russians are using artillery to inflict higher casualties on the Ukies then its (assuming some big assault isnt being prepared elsewhere) an awful tactic which will end with many thousands more dead conscripts and Ukraine accepting whatever is forced on them.
Assuming the Ukrainian military are sane youd have to think they are fortifying the living buggery of whatever is behind Bakhmut.
In a sane world there would be some form of peace negotiations going on.
Thanks lotocoti.

Tourist trap confirmed.
The perfect example of a figurehead rather than a leader was the Optus data hack. The young woman CEO looked like a deer in the headlights because she had no idea what happened and what to do about it. She was not on top of anything. The most damning information about her was that she could not be contactable until 8:30 am because of her work/life balance commitment. She could not understand that a CEO on multi-million dollar salary had better be contactable at 3 am any day or on a weekend. If it’s inconvenient don’t take the job.
Probably suing the Retired Surface Warfare Officers’ Association

Who is a worse military commander?
Seven star Generalissimo Vladimir “Well to my credit I did beat Chechnya, eventually ” Putin or Field Marshal Montel Haig?
It’s a tough choice!
Keep in mind, monty has not yet crippled a great power’s military as its commander by fighting a conventional war against a former colony.
Mark L would normally chime in and tell us that Haig was brilliant.
McConnell was the Senate leader at the time which means that he colluded with the Democrats against his own voters. As vile as the Democrats are they never betray their voters but the nominally Republican McConnell has no qualms doing so. I wonder how he intends to explain his actions when he arrives at the Pearly Gates.
Monty of Malmo?
He would be better following the lead of Swedish Oberst Erikson at Drobak Sound in Oslofjord in 1940: Upon sighting approaching unidentified and possibly German ships in the mist, despite having no orders, he told his men to open fire, sinking the German Heavy Cruiser Blucher and seriously disrupting the German invasion.
He reportedly told his men “Either I will be decorated or I will be court martialled. Open fire!”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dr%C3%B8bak_Sound
To his credit Haigs sausage theory was pretty well spot on.
LOL. The funniest thing about this claim is that it’s still a shit sandwich for Germany and they’d still be expected to send equipment to Ukraine.

The curators would be well advised to wait for the conclusion of Mr. Sofronoff’s inquiry before deciding what to do with it.
My daughter is RN / Midwife. She is currently working in a meat packing plant because she choose to not have the Covid vaccines (she thought it would interfere with her ability to have another kid) As a midwife, she had good visibility of how the Covid Vax was interfering with women’s cycles, hence her decision to not get Covid Vax.
She lives in Victoria which requires “current” Covid vaccinations, I don’t know if that means 2, 3, 4 or 5 jabs.
My son is also a RN, he is working at a hospital but I won’t discuss his vax status with him because it will just all end in tears, his all in on that c’t Andrews whereas I would happily see Andrews’ flyblown corpse swinging off a jib somewhere.
Everyone ought to listen to the Critical Drinker’s preview of the new Peter Pan, the comments are a veritable gold mine.
after the White House denied it was responsible
LOL! This White House is SO credible.
Haig got some bad press. He thoroughly deserved it.
He spent his post war years attempting to atone for his disastrous leadership so there are plenty of people today trying to rewrite history to exculpate him.
No love for Haigs sausage here then?
Tough crowd.
NATO estimates are that Russia is losing five men to every Uke KIA.
Just a reminder: Russia has three times the population of Ukraine.

Interesting watching events in Georgia at the moment. Apparently, a widely supported bill in the Parliament against foreign agents is causing a kerfuffle. Colour revolutionaries, the EU and US admin, but I repeat myself, are up in arms. The Georgian President, who is coincidentally in the US, has vowed to veto it.
LOL Dot, aren’t you a lawyer?
DeSantis may not be the answer:
via Vox Day
According to five Republicans familiar with the discussions, the governor’s top lieutenants have quietly recruited a network of conservative social media influencers as part of a broader attempt to circumvent the mainstream press and appeal directly to GOP primary voters nationwide.
And who are, according to the three Republicans who received the initial pitch, among the ranks in DeSantis’ digital army?
Jack Murphy, a podcast host and self-described “alpha-male giga chad” involved in a quasi-professional cuckolding porn scandal. John Cardillo, a former Newsmax TV host and unregistered arms dealer who allegedly stiffed the Ukrainian government for $200,000 worth of body armor plates. Christian Walker, Herschel Walker’s right-wing influencer son who helped tank his father’s Senate campaign. David Reaboi, a Hungary-loving and Qatar-hating bodybuilder with longstanding ties to John Bolton. And Caleb Hull, an ex-Trump digital strategist who has said some very, very racist things.
This is the DeSantis A-team, and they’re fighting a battle for a presidential campaign that hasn’t even started yet—with plenty of DeSantis face time, dinners, and photo ops.

The losers in the South aren’t going to win this time either.
m0nty=fa seems to have missed the many statements by so-called “progressives”, that they could survive happily without the burden of subsidising “flyover country”. Yet, whenever the suggestion of an amicable separation arises, their immediate reaction is to threaten violence to keep those awful rednecks under their control.
It almost seems as if they lack the confidence to go it alone in a fully “progressive” nation.
Tata, Albo!
Which NATO?
This NATO or some other NATO?
M0nty says: “Need I remind you, Bruce, that the whole purpose of the J6 riot was to interrupt and shut down the peaceful transfer of power to the new government, complete with domestic terrorists who joined in with the express desire to murder Pelosi et al?”
Need I remind you of the riot by leftists on 29/5, which resulted in a century plus old church being set on fire, an SS guard hut at the Whitehouse being set on fire, and the secret service so worried about the President’s safety that they moved him to an underground bunker? The left claimed that Trump “tear gassed” “protesters” for a “photo op”, when in fact the tear gas was approved for use (not by Trump, not even requested by Trump) hours before Trump turned up. The leftard infested MSM even pilloried Trump as a coward for “hiding” in said bunker, even though he had no say in it, it was all done at the insistence of the Secret Service, who are charged with protecting the President, and who can (and did) force the President to seek shelter for his own personal safety.
Actual physical fire-bombing of security posts, several security people injured, both involving the Whitehouse, and the secret service so concerned about a security breech they insisted the President go to a “secure location”, yet no charges at all. None. And no claims of “insurrection” – rather, just more “mostly peaceful” protests that were “attacked” by the “far right” led by DJT (of course!)
Or need I remind you of Antifa terrorists being awarded compensation for “police violence” because police didn’t wear masks when they arrested them.
Or that Antifa terrorists that threw industrial grade fireworks at people eating at outdoor cafes in DC couldn’t be arrested because they all dressed the same in a deliberate attempt to confuse police and refused to even talk to police, while the Proud Boys who had done nothing other than attempt to protect others from these violent thugs were arrested and charged because they were more than happy to talk to the police, and were all individually recognisable.
Or that there are several citizens still being held without charge for J6 “offenses”, which is clearly in breech of their constitutional rights to both a “timely” trial and to face their accusers before a jury of their peers. Some claim they have been refused medical treatment, been held in solitary confinement with only one hour a day for “exercise”, refused legal council and so on – all clear breeches of their constitutional rights, but no-one cares.
That’s bad M0nty – far worse than any violence that occurred on Jan 6, because it is the Government itself exercising its near unlimited power in express violation of its constitutionally enshrined limits.
I don’t care what side of politics you are on or support, this is completely unacceptable – they’ve broken the most basic and hard fought for rules, rules that were created to prevent the very excesses of government power we now see. I don’t even care if you agree with the rules or not – they exist, they are supposed to be unbreakable, and if you don’t like them, then you need to change them, not ignore them. The last time such rules were ignored in the USA, it led to civil war. It may do so again – I certainly hope not, but it may.
This is old news, the greenskin man ended his career.

Hmm, that’s very interesting. How many men are they saying are committed to the front on both sides? I mean, earlier you said RUS are losing a thousand a day. Are you saying they’ve lost 60K over the last two months? Is NATO saying that? With purported losses in that vicinity, and given they are still advancing, have they committed double or three times that to Bakhmut front? And does that mean that UKR have 40-60K in its defense?
What were they planning to murder Pelosi et al. with?

US is Losing Another War – Ukraine
“The United States has launched a proxy war, unconstitutionally, circumventing Congress and the American people no less the entire world. What must be understood, is that the Biden Administration, the puppet of the Neocons led now by Victoria Nuland, has brought the entire world to the brink of World War III and they have now begun the countdown to the decline and fall of Western Civilization
Who is Victoria Nuland and why is she the queen of the Neocons? Victoria Nuland has been one of the leading Neocons always advocating war with Russia. She is behind the propaganda that Russia is on the verge of defeat and that the Russian army is really dysfunctional. This is standard propaganda. They put out the same exact line about the troops in Iraq. This is to convince Americans that they can wage war and it will be over in just a few hours or days. This is the typical Neocon sales pitch to justify their endless thirst for war. They are trying to provide justification to rush in for an easy defeat of their target.
Besides the Neocons’ treason against the Constitution always manipulating proxy wars without the consent of Congress in violation of Section I, Article 8, there is also one huge very serious undisclosed conflict of interest and the Biden Administration should immediately fire Victoria Nuland and all her supporters within the Biden Administration to save the world and our nation.
Victoria Nuland is really of Ukrainian Jewish descent. She really would be Nudelman, not Nuland. She is actually the daughter of Yale bioethics and medicine professor Sherwin B. Nuland, who changed his surname from Nudelman to Nuland. She has retained her family name Nuland to perhaps further hide her Jewish connection by being married to Robert Kagan. Victoria speaks Russian, French, and some Chinese.
Her husband, Robert Kagan, authored the “real Iraq Study Group” report of the American Enterprise Institute. This was the Neocon view of regime change. Kagan was said to have convinced President George W. Bush, to order the “surge” plan for changing the course of the Iraq War. It was Kagan who co-founded the neoconservative think tank in 1997 which was known as the Project for the New American Century (PNAC) with fellow Neocon William Kristol, who has a track record of usually being wrong. This has been the legacy of the Neocons in general.
Ron Paul plainly wrote: “Victoria Nuland exemplifies the neocons who have led US foreign policy from one disaster to another for the past 30 years while evading accountability.” “ It is indeed time that we examine the Neocons who constantly usurp American foreign policy and will drive us straight into World War III.”

Duk – Interesting parallel with the decapitation attempt that the Russians tried in Kiev, since the wiki says Blucher was tasked with capturing the king and the government.
Small correction: he was Norwegian not Swedish, of course. (I was wondering if the Swedes had shot at the Germans in 1940 as they went past the Swedish coastline on the way to Oslo.)
A Russian victory in Bakhmut would be a costly strategic defeat for Putin
Does the propaganda get any more blatant? Goebbels would be proud of these folk.
