This is better than a travelling circus:
Lisa Wilkinson has been caught joking about shadow Indigenous affairs minister Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s name before comparing the Liberal Party preselecting an Indigenous candidate to a white family ‘hiring a black cleaner’.
Daily Mail
Meanwhile in the Territory:
A convicted domestic violence perpetrator – who was given a wholly suspended sentence for reasons including that his partner was pregnant – has allegedly fractured a baby’s skull by drunkenly hitting the child with a glass bottle during her first birthday party.
The baby, from the outback town of Tennant Creek, remains in an Adelaide hospital after undergoing surgery following the attack 12 days ago.
The girl was flown from the predominantly Indigenous community, 500km north of Alice Springs, to Adelaide late on May 28 after the man allegedly threw a bottle which hit her head.
Emergency services were notified of the incident just before 9pm that Sunday.
The Royal Flying Doctor Service was called to airlift the infant, who was in a critical condition, to the Adelaide Women’s and Children’s Hospital for surgery.
The baby was reportedly accompanied on the flight to Adelaide by her grandmother as her parents were unfit to fly due to intoxication.

Anyone believing the spin that Albo is working on getting Assange freed is a moron.
Via Michael West & Rex Patrick.
According to Mark Dreyfus’s briefing, the only direct role contemplated by the Government will only come after Assange has been extradited, convicted and sentenced in the US. Only then “would [it] be open to Mr Assange to apply to transfer to Australia to serve his sentence under the international transfer of prisoners scheme. It is not possible to make a decision regarding an international prisoner transfer in advance of the person being eligible to apply for transfer.”

The cause of this infernal hottness is that there’s a newly crowned El Nino event coming down the aisle, caused by that heat that’s been “hiding in the oceans” for years.
There’s more. The Canadian fires are due to climate hotness too, of course. It’s as if there have never been wildfires before. The Yanks have had monster fires forever, and we hire some of their gear when we need it over here. I remember a fine film starring Richard Dreyfus and Holly Hunter from thirty years ago, called Always. it also starred, yes, wildfires. Back then, before global warming got u full head of steam, wildfires were considered just part of life.

Because you’ve got to warn a person that you’re taping the conversation for it to be admissible as Evidence.
No crotchless, there are a number of exceptions: see the family court and various categories of lawful interest. One recent example was Harry Garside taping threats by his ex to accuse him of assault.
Now STFU and just stick to saying stupid stuff.
In Qld at least, as long as you are a party to the conversation, you can record it without telling the other person. The Invasion of Privacy Act 2017 allows it. I don’t know what other powers cops have in that regard.
An El Niño does bring warmer max temperatures though. Cooler at night though.
On the major disaster event scenario though, if you live in the inner city you tend to be shielded from such things and ignorant of their frequency. Furthermore, if you don’t believe in a god, then for many you need some other kind of deity to impose its malevolence on a winning mankind. The climate god might well suit.
Sinning mankind.
Further to the released recording between the Amphibian, Svengali Shazza the Great White Shark, Higgins and her Ten producer about “Liberal women”, listening to the Amphibian’s patronising ridicule of Liberal women, and particularly of Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, her feeble and offensive attempt to articulate Jacinta Price’s indigenous name…Nampijinpa…just imagine, for one brief second, if this had been a conservative columnist and television personality, say Andrew Bolt, Rowan Dean or Rita Panahi? Well, apart from the fact that they’d already be jobless, already have issued an apology, imagine the screeching, screaming headlines in the Malcolm Guardian, in Nine Newspapers, and on their ABC? But no, the silence is deafening. Conservative women, Liberal women, are fair game, even indigenous women such as Price. And watch their ABC bury this.
I’ve long loathed the Amphibian and her equally putrid husband, for a number of very valid reasons, I regard them as talentless hustlers, hypocrites, grifters and parasites, and this exchange further entrenches my already low opinion of these two disgraceful individuals. As I’ve said before, it’s a sad indictment of this country that these two managed to climb up the greasy media totem pole. After her words about Price, the Amphibian should be persona non grata, but as Bern said above, she’ll probably be back, although I do wonder. She’s burnt all her bridges at Ten and Nine, Seven wouldn’t touch her with a barge pole, perhaps she should try and resurrect Dolly magazine because basically, that’s where she should have stayed. She isn’t a journalist, when you listen to the slag speaking on the tapes, every word is designed to put words in Higgins stupid mouth. I’ll wait and see if the Amphibian ever issues an apology to Price.
Actually Bern, I think the Amphibian’s finished.

Cuba plans to host a secret Chinese spy base.
The two countries reached a secret agreement for an electronic eavesdropping facility on the island, in a brash new challenge by Beijing to the U.S., according to U.S. officials familiar with highly classified intelligence. A facility in Cuba, roughly 100 miles from Florida, would allow Chinese intelligence services to scoop up electronic communications throughout the southeastern U.S., where there are many military bases, and monitor U.S. ship traffic. The Chinese Embassy in Washington had no comment, and Cuba’s Embassy didn’t respond to a request for comment.
Sounds like Cuba needs some FREEDOM!

More ‘prepping the battlefield’ in todays Oz
It is, of course, axiomatic that the interest rate *has* to be higher than the inflation rate for the monetary system to function (otherwise lenders make a loss and stop lending).
They try to paper over this fundamental fact by lying about the real inflation rate (as a rule of thumb you can double whatever they admit to), and by making ‘money’ artificially cheap by printing it, and by allowing the banks to multiply it via the fractional reserve system.
Both measures only distort the monetary system, producing errors which must, eventually, painfully correct.
Who was it said ‘you can lie about the fundamental laws of the universe, but your lies won’t exempt you from the consequences’?

Fox: Carlson Breached Contract With Twitter Show (7 Jun)
“This evening we were made aware of Mr. Tucker Carlson’s appearance on Twitter in a video that lasted over 10 minutes,” Fox News general counsel Bernard Gugar said in a letter to Carlson’s lawyers.
“Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Carlson’s ‘services shall be completely exclusive to Fox,’” it continued, quoting Carlson’s contract.
Gugar also said Carlson was “prohibited from rendering services of any type whatsoever, whether ‘over the internet via streaming or similar distribution, or other digital distribution whether now known or hereafter devised.’”
Carlson’s legal team told Axios that any legal action by Fox would violate his First Amendment rights.
Bring it on Foxlings. Every time you do this thousands more disgusted righties stop watching your channels.
He said the ongoing reporting meant “what we now seem to be having is a genuine case of trial by media”.”

OMG, we now have Miss Warringah defending Gallagher as a woman of integrity. From The Oz..
Independent MP Zali Steggall has defended Finance Minister Katy Gallagher as a “very ethical person” and has warned against using Brittany Higgins as a “punching bag”.
“I think this is a pretty vile attack from [Peter] Dutton and Linda Reynolds, putting at risk the mental health of someone that’s very vulnerable,” she told Nine’s Today program on Friday morning.
“We have to remember that Brittany Higgins is a very vulnerable young woman and making her the punching bag of a political attack is really unsavoury.”
Ms Steggall called the text message revelations a “distraction” for the Liberal Party.
“What I would really like to know is the emails and phone calls of Linda Reynolds after she was made aware of the alleged assault, prior to the 2019 election being called,” she said.
“We never had the report released, and Scott Morrison never revealed who knew what when within his peers.
“In my experience, Katy Gallagher has been a very ethical person in all my dealings with her.”.

Invalid Claims About the Validity of Implicit Association Tests by Prisoners of the Implicit Social-Cognition Paradigm
Ulrich Schimmack
In a prior publication, I used structural equation modeling of multimethod data to examine the construct validity of Implicit Association Tests. The results showed no evidence that IATs measure implicit constructs (e.g., implicit self-esteem, implicit racial bias). This critique of IATs elicited several responses by implicit social-cognition researchers, who tried to defend the validity and usefulness of IATs. I carefully examine these arguments and show that they lack validity. IAT proponents consistently ignore or misrepresent facts that challenge the validity of IATs as measures of individual differences in implicit cognitions. One response suggests that IATs can be useful even if they merely measure the same constructs as self-report measures, but I find no support for the claim that IATs have practically significant incremental predictive validity. In conclusions, IATs are widely used without psychometric evidence of construct or predictive validity.

Clearly Higgins had no idea Wilkinson was taping the discussion or she wouldn’t have been so candid.
Wilkinson’s producer said he was recording the conversation to Higgins , she knew and said it was ok.
Grandpa Cletus has only two missions in life, shilling for the Liars and defending the virtue of his favourite Niece Knickerless.
Maybe schools should get out of ‘celebrating’ ramadam and pride month (but not Lent) and just teach math and reading and stuff.
as much as I love conspiracy theories, there are natural explanations – eg: a dry storm front sweeping across the country with lightning strikes. Look at the weather clip when the fires start, there’s a low pressure system spiralling through at the time (though there is a lack of cloud).
I do like the idea of fires started with energy weapons from space – probably their first utility, given the low energy required to start a fire in dry conditions.
Looks like one or more of the Liars “reached out” to Steggall yesterday for some support.
Their own options being somewhat lacking in credibility (something Leak nailed in his cartoon).
The answer, is, of course, in the quote – the whole point of eugenics is to favour the replication of one stream of genes to the detriment of others. This requires limiting or preventing their replication.
Arguably, the modern welfare state is a eugenics program also – it transfers resources from the more productive to the less productive, thus reducing the potential for replicating the geneset of the more productive and increasing it for the less productive.
So, to be consistent*, those recoiling in horror at ‘eugenics’ must also do so at the welfare state.
*yes, yes, a faint hope I know…
Higgins and Lehrmann came with the office iirc.

‘Liberal woman’ goes viral on TikTok for saying it’s hard to find ‘masculine’ man who’s not conservative (8 Jun)
In the clip, she shared her dating struggles with her followers, namely the hard time she’s had finding a masculine man who matches her progressive views.
She opened the video, talking about “one of the saddest realizations” she has ever had, which she claimed was, “as a liberal woman, it is really hard to find a man who is willing to play the more traditional masculine role in the relationship in today’s day and age who is not a conservative.”
She continued explaining how she’s looking for “a man who wants to pay on the first date, who wants to open your door, who has that want and desire to take care of you and to provide” but can’t find one “who is not a conservative.”
As she spoke, text appeared at the top of the video revealing some of her scathing critiques of the men she’s been running into. She wrote, “All these men out here wanting to split the bill. ON THE FIRST DATE!!!! Whaaaaaaat.”
As the video continued, @ms_petch stressed that as a liberal woman, she definitely wants her independence to be acknowledged and “not be confined or conform to the traditional female homemaker, childbearing role.” Again she reiterated she wanted someone who was a natural provider who wasn’t conservative.

Not quite – the standard ‘mail in poo test’ is a non specific screening test which really looks for blood, which has multiple potential causes. Actual diagnosis of cancer resulting from a positive will usually require a follow up colonoscopy, not quite such a benign procedure.

Dude also said “ALL OF SOUTHERN QUEBEC IS ON FIRE!” which was a tad hyperbolic.
In other words the screening test for bowel cancer is a cheap simple tool to identify those most likely to need further investigation.
You aren’t forced to do either the screening or the further procedure.
California’s Assembly is considring a Democrat sponsored Bill which will prevent store employees (including security?) from confronting shoplifters.
The Bill is ostensibly to protect employees from harm, California’s cities now being home to so many unhinged and potentially dangerous people thanks to other state government policies, but what will the criminals make of it, especially when DAs are already reluctant to prosecute such cases?
No wonder businesses are leaving San Francisco’s CBD in particular (including the Hilton Hotel, as I noted yesterday). Democrat policies are turning one of the world’s most beautiful cities into a 3rd world sh^thole.

Someone has just mentioned to me that he is surprised that the Defence Department hired two people with such poor judgement and of such immaturity to work in a very sensitive area. Were Higgins and Lehrmann hired by the Defence Minister herself?
Lehrmann was hired by A/G George Brandis straight out of High School in 2013.
When Brandis retired in 2017, Lehrmann went into Linda Reynolds office as a Senior Adviser on $200k at the age of 20.
Higgins started as a Media Adviser To Steven Ciobo in 2016.
Ciobo announced his retirement at the 2019 Election and stood down from the Ministry in late 2018.
He had to let most of his staff go, but he kept Higgins on.
Higgins was on the lookout for a job and Lehrmann asked a woman in Reynolds office to try and bring her on board “because she’s very good looking”.
Reynolds was a junior Defence Minister at the time, she wasn’t promoted to Defence Minister until after the 2019 Election, by which time she’d “sacked” [heh heh] Lehrman and flicked Higgins to Senator Cash’s office.
Some consolation that ABC radio’s ratings in the city markets are reportedly tanking.

Be brave, strip soldiers’ medals, says expert who sparked war crimes inquiry
By Matthew Knott
The sociologist who triggered the Brereton war crimes inquiry has urged Defence Minister Richard Marles to stare down veterans’ groups by stripping medals from soldiers who oversaw alleged wrongdoing in Afghanistan, saying it will reflect poorly on the nation if no action is taken.
Samantha Crompvoets, an expert on organisational culture, was commissioned by the Department of Defence in 2015 to produce a report that led to military personnel disclosing claims of unlawful behaviour including alleged war crimes.
In her first interview since a Federal Court judge found Ben Roberts-Smith to be a murderer and war criminal when dismissing his defamation case last week, Crompvoets said the decorated former soldier should lose his Victoria Cross for bringing the Australian Defence Force into disrepute.
Crompvoets said Australians should prepare to hear confronting allegations at possible future criminal trials flowing from the Brereton inquiry.
“Ben Roberts-Smith is not necessarily the worst offender,” she said, based on hundreds of hours interviewing Afghanistan war veterans including special operations commanders.
“We’ve not seen the worst of it is what I’d say.”
As well as facing calls to strip Roberts-Smith of his Victoria Cross, Marles is considering whether to remove distinguished service awards from a small number of Afghanistan war commanders.
Crompvoets said: “If the medals are removed, it sends the message that leaders are accountable and responsible for what happens below them, that there is no honour being associated with alleged war crimes and that when one person commits an atrocity it stains the entire unit.
“If they don’t remove them, they will be giving in to the vocal few people who remain wilfully ignorant about what happened in Afghanistan.
“It will reflect poorly on us as a nation, and it will not be looked upon kindly by history.”
Crompvoets acknowledged this would require bravery because the prospect of revoking military honours has already attracted a backlash from veterans groups including the Returned and Services League (RSL) and the Australian Special Air Service (SAS) Association.
“Removing the medals is a courageous thing for the government to do and would draw a line in the sand about what they believe in terms of accountability and ethics,” she said.
Explaining why commanders should be held accountable for alleged wrongdoing by more junior soldiers, Crompvoets used the analogy of a relay team that is stripped of its Olympic medals because one member was found to be using performance-enhancing drugs.
Australian Defence Force Chief Angus Campbell wrote to several Afghanistan war veterans last month to inform them their honours for distinguished and conspicuous service could soon be cancelled if Marles accepts his recommendation to do so.
Veterans groups are aware of at least seven veterans, all of whom served at a squadron leader or lieutenant commander level, who have received these letters.
A spokeswoman for Marles confirmed Campbell had provided him with recommendations on command accountability.
“The deputy prime minister in his capacity as minister for defence is considering the recommendations and seeking advice as appropriate,” the spokeswoman said.
Crompvoets said some soldiers had told her the culture inside the SAS had improved since the Brereton inquiry, but she added: “Where is the transparency from Defence about what changes have been made and why? Where is the thought leadership, the speeches and essays on what has been learnt?”
She said there was still a hypermasculine “cult of warrior worship” in the military that needed to be questioned.
“I’m not reassured by someone like [Opposition Leader] Peter Dutton coming out and saying the culture of the SAS has changed,” she said. “We know it takes a lot of time for culture to change.”
Crompvoets said her work for the federal government, her main source of income, evaporated after Dutton criticised her type of research in 2021, with the then-defence minister saying he did not want the military to be “distracted by things that have happened in the past”.
“There has been an enormous personal and professional cost because of the backlash I received from my work on this,” she said.
She added she was the target of misogynist abuse in online veterans groups where her phone number was published.

Wilkinson apology ‘decent thing to do’: Price.
Tricia Rivera
Opposition Indigenous Affairs spokeswoman Jacinta Nampijinpa Price said an apology to her would be “the decent thing to do” after a tape revealed television presenter Lisa Wilkinson mocking her name.
“Obviously they’re rather derogatory and racist comments. That level of arrogance and ignorance doesn’t surprise me,” Senator Price told 2GB on Friday morning.
“It’s quite disappointing but it doesn’t surprise me. I would be interested to know who their black friends are.
“I would absolutely expect an apology from the Ten Network, from Lisa Wilkinson herself, that would be the decent thing to do.”
Audio from a meeting with Ms Wilkinson, her producer Angus Llewellyn, Brittany Higgins and her partner David Sharaz revealed the television personality commenting on Senator Price’s name.
“[The Liberal Party] has preselected over twenty new and wonderfully diverse and strong female candidates like, and what’s her name, Nam… Nampinjumba? She’s an indigenous woman,” Ms Wilkinson could be heard saying in the tape.
“As soon as I looked at it I thought, Oh, you’re joking.”
Mr Sharaz: “It’s like, I’m not racist. I’ve got a black friend.”
Wilkinson: “And our cleaner’s black.””
Just punching weight now.

as much as I love conspiracy theories, there are natural explanations – eg: a dry storm front sweeping across the country with lightning strikes. Look at the weather clip when the fires start, there’s a low pressure system spiralling through at the time (though there is a lack of cloud).
I do like the idea of fires started with energy weapons from space – probably their first utility, given the low energy required to start a fire in dry conditions.
Wildfires are nothing new. When you have upwards of 10-20 fires, separated by considerable distance – igniting all at the same time, alarm bells should be going off.
