Any of the bush lawyers on this blog help out? If the Voice is rejected at referendum, can Albo bring it in by legislation?
It has already been brought in by legislation, in the form of the National Indigenous Australians Agency.
Trans, do you really believe that we’re all too dim to see that your recent criticisms of this blog aren’t just a case of sour grapes given how clear it is that every comment you make here is irrelevant? Let’s face it: The issue isn’t with the blog. It’s you.
In the Australian and Canadian cases, it is “tales your nanna told you”.
That’s convenient.
IN relation to Treblinka, there is ample forensic evidence available,

In other words, you cannot have representative democracy without free speech. I don’t believe the High Court would budge an inch from this.
Were you born a complete moron, or has it taken much practice on your part? Inquiring minds want to know.

JC, that only works if someone takes a case to the HC. If no-one asks the question, the law, whatever it is, stays on the books.
The same is true conversely. If the HC strikes down a law because it is deemed unconstitutional, sometimes the government through the parliament won’t return to its vomit and fix the problem.
See, for example, that bloke who claimed that his aboriginality gave him special connection to the land and because of it, he could not be deported, even though he was not a citizen. The HC found in his favour, and the government did not move legislation to change the relevant law.
Swimmer
Sure, it would only work if it was taken to the court. I’m pretty certain any attempt to seriously curtail free speech would end up on the court’s lap. On this score, I wouldn’t be at all worried.
No, we’re tryin g to get a definitive answer from Zulu on what constitutes

That’s not Tales my nanna told me
JC, then why is Luigi planning a law change knowing full well that it would be unconstitutional?
Look, recent history would suggest that the High Court have been soft courts with respect to aboriginal issues. However, they weren’t soft cocks in respect to the potential debauchery of criminal law when it came to decide for Pell. It was 7 nil.
The court is unambiguous with respect to free speech and the implied right to free speech is substantiated by the fact that we operate a representative democracy. You can’t operate this system of government without such an implied right.
1.15pm If no further rain, Umpires will inspect at 2pm.
Pray for rain.
They have a blind spot. There are numerous cases where governments are held back by the High Court. If your supposition was right it would mean that governments never make errors.
Don’t forget, all political parties are beholden to their strongest constituencies and the far left is pushing them towards creating such a law.
I wasn’t suggesting that they were being soft; I was pointing out that,
1) in the case of the court, they can’t take a case themselves and,
2) in the case of the govt/parliament, when legislation needs to be fixed because it is deemed unconstitutional by the court, rather than doing so, sometimes they prefer to do nothing. Instead of arguing the case in parliament – or through the court of public opinion – they ignore the problem entirely.
1. Last time I heard, it costs about $1 million dollars to take a case to the High Court. The moment someone is badly tripped over by this law, the money will be found one way or another. You think someone like Gina R wouldn’t help fund something like this on appeal all the way?
2. If the law is deemed unconstitutional it was cease to exist.
Firstly, he’s desparate.
Secondly, even if the law got Nilliganed, the seed has been planted … “No case = misinformation”.
JC, I’d love to see someone like Gina R do that. But see our rights to maintain bodily integrity and to refuse and not be coerced into having a medical treatment, no-one did any about that either during or after the pandemic. Even now there are still workers – ambos and firefighters – who can’t return to work without getting a jab. I would’ve thought in a free country – see your point about representative democracy – that that could never have happened and yet here we are.

SP, if we’re now in the HC because of it, imho, not that many Aussies would be hanging off their seats awaiting that judgment, so No case equalling misinformation should go nowhere in public opinion. As well, we’re getting to the stage that quite possibly the majority has already made up their mind. (See what Craven said the other day that once a person had decided on voting no, it is virtually impossible to change them to a yes).
And, second, the HC should be easily able to put two and two together and see what Luigi is up to, and would make their judgment post haste to ensure the Yes and No cases could continue politicking through to referendum day.
And Collingwood win again. Most excellent
Here’s Chris Kenny discussing this in today’s Oz.
As you know, everything discussed by Kenny, occurred in the US as well, which is supposedly the land of constitutionally enshrined free speech. A US federal judge has temporarily banned any discussion between any part of the US government and the social media companies. The US government has attempted to have this temporary restriction removed and the judge told them to go fcuk themselves.
This is not the US, obviously. However, I think the final decision by the US federal court will go completely against the government. The Australian High Court would invariably study this decision.
There’s also this to consider. Musk spent a great deal of energy revealing the interplay between old Twitter and various elements of US agencies strong arming Twitter into deleting stuff and banning people.
Twitter has no money nor any operation in Australia and transmission works through US servers. Do you really believe Musk would accede to any demands by some stupid Australian agency to take down posts etc considered misinformation? New Twitter would tell them to go F themselves. Then, would the Australian government block Twitter for ignoring the demand. Zero chance.

Retaining the Ashes due to bad weather (which is what will happen if it keeps pissing down) will always have an asterisk next to it.
Good drive.
America – “Ventura Highway”. In the Sunshine.
Following on from this, if the Australian government agency can do sweet F all in forcing New Twitter to take down what they consider misinformation, then would the others be more amenable? I think it would be unlikely. This is a stupid proposal that isn’t going anywhere. We’re not the EU, nor the US!
JC, the fact that those social media posts numbering 4000+ were taken down, and we now know about it and so far, and admittedly it’s not been that long, but there’s been no one racing to the HC steps to argue that case. And when you take into account this proposed legislation, which is getting lots of media attention, still nothing. On that happy note, I’m off to bed.

Fun in Bordeaux
We decided to go up the “world’s longest shopping street”, stretching all the way from the Place de la Victoire to the Grand Theatre.
The Marie Hilfestrasse it was not. Saturday is market day and the entire length was filled with rubbish, be it billowy garments made from the cheapest cloth to all sorts of plastic junk. It reminded me of the worst of Cairo without the charm. The quality shops at the top of the street were all but obscured by the stalls. There was an occasional sausage vendor, but the rest was an utter disappointment. Popped into the Galleries Lafayette and the square with the upturned umbrellas for a bit of visual relief.
Had lunch at a café with a direct view to the beautiful Monument aux Girondins. The table next to us was occupied by a large group of young men…suddenly a very large, fat wasp descended upon them. They all squealed and leaped up, the wasp hovering menacingly, clearly after a taste of their lunch. It then moved to other tables, and people there did the same.
Finally it moved on to ours, attracted by the cider I was drinking. I waited until it stopped at the base of the bottle, calmly drank the water from my glass and upturned it onto the dozy creature. Cheers all round. I simply said, “Australia” with a deadpan expression. “Do you fight dragons there too?”. “No. But we’re good at avoiding snakes.”.
Apparently they are an introduced species from Asia and can deliver a nasty sting. I had no remorse in squishing the thing with a napkin, as there were small children around. The Beloved then presented it to the fellows as a keepsake. 😀
That’s true, but all this was done
1. Before Musk took over Twitter
2. Before this US federal court decision banning the US government from even talking to the Social media companies.
Point 1 is most important. New Twitter will not take down anything an Australian agency requested be take down.

Stew Peters Show:
In any populist movement grifters will spring up to make a quick buck.
Dr. Ben Tapper who was named as one of the Covid “Disinformation Dozen” joins Stew to discuss the cost of standing for truth.
The term “grifter” is rarely defined.
In short, a grifter is a person seeking to personally profit through fraud.
Sometimes it’s literal fraud, but a lot of it is more vague.
It’s a person who poses as a brave warrior for truth but is actually a coward.
It’s a person who fabricates problems so that they can milk donations from people.
It’s a person who promises big investigative scoops but never brings the receipts.
Dr. Tapper is not a grifter.
He first went viral for an appearance he made before the Omaha city council, where he opposed mask mandates.
Since then, Dr. Tapper has been censored, repeatedly.
However, Dr. Tapper and others are now fighting back and in June filed a lawsuit in federal court against the Trusted News Initiative, a partnership of major media outlets whose purpose was to impose narrative control and promote censorship of outlets besides themselves.
Recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that censoring the “Disinformation Dozen” actually cost American lives.
The government colluded with social media outlets and ordered them to censor.
This is a violation of the Sherman Act which concerns antitrust laws.
Elon Musk’s Twitter is now censoring Stew Peters and has permanently marked all of his tweets “sensitive”.
In June Stew’s Twitter account achieved 450 million impressions.
As of July he only has 1 million impressions.
This likely means Twitter will be locked down again close to the election and the WEF stooge Linda Yaccarino is doing exactly what she was hired to do.
Freedom fighters must continue to fight mass censorship.

I’ve never minded about being proven wrong. So be it.
Think of this though. If that Federal court decision holds up and greatly impedes the US government from attempting to control the social media companies, do you think some piddly little Australian agency is going to force/fine or whatever new Twitter to take down posts they don’t like?
If the demands run counter to the new environment created by the US court;s decision there is not a chance in hell new Twitter would comply with Australian demands. Now the government could threaten Twitter by blocking them in Australia, but would they? There’s no chance in hell that would happen either. None.

Why Academia Cannot Forecast Anything
COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I have been impressed by your Economic Confidence Model. You said there would be no recession until after 2024. You were really the only one who said that. Now Bloomberg reported that the forecasters who “were first out of the box to predict a US recession” are now hedging their bets. They mention Deutsche Bank Vice Chair of Research Peter Hooper and Fannie Mae chief economist Doug Duncan. However, Nomura Securities International senior economist Aichi Amemiya still says a recession is coming, but “it’s getting to be a close call.”
Not one of the significant houses seems ever to get it right. I just wanted to say your model shines a light on the whole analysis field. I can’t wait for your Geometry of Time.
REPLY: Thank you. It has been a most interesting experience. As I said, this is something I bumped into. I did not go looking for such a model. It was something that found me, as many say it was my destiny, even growing up in a house with the address of 314 South Lippincott Ave, in Maple Shade, New Jersey.
These are the books I am trying to get out this year. The Geometry of Time will be next year. The Mark Anthony book should be on Amazon and Barnes & Noble in a couple of weeks. That is, using the coinage to demonstrate what the real story is behind Cleopatra. She was certainly not black as NETFLIX presented to rewrite history for the WOKE agenda. This is very similar to the USA using Ukraine in a proxy war to destroy Russia. Here, Cleopatra funded a war that the coinage was so massive; it still accounted for 20% of the money supply 100 years later.
The Modern Analysis is nearly finished. This goes precisely to the subject you have brought up. This is a reference book on my version of technical analysis, which is different from the mainstream, but it goes into the whole problem of analysis used by academics, which is blinding us to the reality of our actions.
The De-Dolarization demonstrates how this entire nonsense that hyperinflation is caused by just increasing the money supply, which is like saying the Great Depression took place simply because the stock market went down. Here too, the lack of any real investigative analysis has doomed the Eurozone because of the distorted view of the real cause of hyperinflation.
The Geometry of Time will be the companion to Modern Analysis for the 21st Century. This will deal with cycles from the how to the why. It has been academia’s refusal to embrace cyclical analysis and any form of technical analysis. This is why people like Larry Summers admit they cannot forecast the economy’s future.”

Shock new poll results for Premier Daniel Andrews and Victorian Labor in wake of 2026 Commonwealth Games fiasco
The latest poll results are in – and they have revealed shock findings about what Victorian voters think of Daniel Andrews and his government following the Commonwealth Games debacle.
‘He’s got to go’: Daniel Andrews has ‘absolutely betrayed’ regional Victorians.
Shadow Education Minister Sarah Henderson says Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has “absolutely betrayed” regional Victorians with his cancelling of the 2026 Commonwealth Games. “You can’t believe a word this man says … and that’s why he’s got to go,” Ms Henderson told Sky News host Sharri Markson.
Victorian voters have savaged Premier Daniel Andrews after he canned the 2026 Commonwealth Games because the event was going to cost more than double what the government initially budgeted for.
A new Roy Morgan poll showed that for the first time since Mr Andrews became Premier in 2014 more people disapprove of his performance than approve.
Mr Andrews had a disapproval rating of 55 per cent – up 7.5 percentage points on the last poll in late May – in the wake of Tuesday’s bombshell games announcement.
He also saw his lead as the better premier cut to its closest result since he spearheaded Labor’s election victory more than eight years ago after spending a term in opposition.

Talisman Sabre happens every two years, and has done for quite some time. It’s held in various spots (primarily the top half of Quenthland and the NT) and involves Straya and the Yanks. Every exercise also involves troops from SE Asia, the smaller Pacific nations and occasionally Europe.
It lasts for weeks.

Claim: Windfarms will Destroy the Australian First Nations Connection to Country
To Feral Guv’ment Minister Linda Burney – You don’t need a ‘Voice’ for this. You just need ears. Do your Job FFS.
Essay by Eric Worrall
“…so many of our people are lost because they don’t have that connection to country…they don’t have a sense of belonging” – Jirrbal woman Georgina Wieden slamming the Chalumbin Wind Farm project.
I visited Ravenshoe a year ago. Ravenshoe sits on top of a tropical highland plateau in Australia’s far North. It is a place of breathtaking beauty, full of unique species and natural wonders.
The thought of ruining such a place with mechanical monstrosities to satisfy the green energy fantasies of distant city based politicians is unthinkable.
Georgina has been fighting the green monstrosities for a while.
Proposed wind farm on Jirrbal Country a concern for some
Aleisha Orr – January 7, 2022
A proposal for a wind farm in North Queensland has raised concerns for some Jirrbal people who say the project does not respect the land and threatens native species.
The Chalumbin Wind Farm project would see wind farm developer Epuron construct 94 wind turbines and clear 1,132 ha of land near the town of Ravenshoe.
A number of online petitions to the project have been created which list concerns about the impact of a wind farm on vulnerable and endangered species including the northern greater glider, red goshawk and the magnificent brood frog.
Jirrbal woman Georgina Wieden told a community meeting in December the Country needs to be protected.
“My daughter she is a sugar glider, that is her totem, my son is a goanna, how do I explain that their animals don’t have homes anymore because we needed electricity.”

Another great recap.
I was most impressed with the video of Putin listening calmly to a reporter’s long and detailed question regarding Poland’s possible entry into the war.
Without hesitation, without notes, or a teleprompter Putin gives a detailed answer drawing on history, that lays out how Poland’s current borders are thanks to Stalin and Russia, and he adds a very subtle but unmistakeable threat should Poland try to carry this out.
Absolutely brilliant!
I can’t help but chuckle when I think of Joe Biden, even in his best days of years ago before his dementia set in, try to answer a question like this.
Director of the Foreign Intelligence Service Sergei Naryshkin:
Mr President, colleagues.
According to information provided to the service by several sources, officials in Warsaw are gradually coming to an understanding that no kind of Western assistance to Kiev can support Ukraine in reaching the goals of this assistance. Moreover, they are beginning to understand that Ukraine will be defeated in only the matter of time.
In this regard, the Polish authorities are getting more intent on taking the western parts of Ukraine under control by deploying their troops there. There are plans to present this measure as the fulfillment of allied obligations within the Polish-Lithuanian-Ukrainian security initiative, the so-called Lublin Triangle.
We see that plans also call for significantly increasing the number of personnel of the combined Lithuanian-Polish-Ukrainian brigade, which operates under the auspices of this so-called Lublin Triangle.
We believe that it is necessary to keep a close eye on these dangerous plans of the Polish authorities.
President Vladimir Putin:
Yes. We should elaborate on what Mr Naryshkin has just said. This information has already appeared in the European media, in particular, the French.
I believe it would be suitable in this context to also remind everyone about several history lessons from the 20th century.
It is clear today that the Western curators of the Kiev regime are certainly disappointed with the results of the counteroffensive that the current Ukrainian authorities announced in previous months. There are no results, at least for now. The colossal resources that were pumped into the Kiev regime, the supply of Western weapons, such as tanks, artillery, armoured vehicles and missiles, and the deployment of thousands of foreign mercenaries and advisers, who were most actively used in attempts to break through the front of our army, are not helping.
Meanwhile, the commanders of the special military operation are acting professionally. Our soldiers, officers and units are fulfilling their duty to the Motherland courageously, steadfastly and heroically. At the same time, the whole world sees that the vaunted Western, supposedly invulnerable, military equipment is on fire, and is often even inferior to some of the Soviet-made weapons in terms of its tactical and technical characteristics.
Yes, of course, more Western weapons can be supplied and thrown into battle. This, of course, causes us some damage and prolongs the conflict. But, firstly, NATO arsenals and stockpiles of old Soviet weapons in some countries are already largely depleted. And secondly, the West does not have the production capacities to quickly replenish the consumption of reserves of equipment and ammunition. Additional, large resources and time are needed.
The main thing is that formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered huge losses as a result of self-destructive attacks: tens of thousands of people.
And, despite the constant raids and the incessant waves of total mobilisation in Ukrainian cities and villages, it is increasingly difficult for the current regime to send new soldiers to the front. The country’s mobilisation resource is being depleted.
People in Ukraine are asking a legitimate question more often: for what, for the sake of whose selfish interests, are their relatives and friends dying. Gradually, slowly, but clarity comes.
We can see the public opinion changing in Europe, too. Both the Europeans and European elites see that support for Ukraine is, in fact, a dead end, an empty, endless waste of money and effort, and in fact, serving someone else’s interests, which are far from European: the interests of the overseas global hegemon, which benefits from the weakening of Europe. The endless prolongation of the Ukrainian conflict is also beneficial to it.
Judging by the actual state of affairs, this is exactly what today’s US ruling elites are doing. Anyways, this is the logic they follow. It is largely questionable whether such a policy is in line with the American people’s true, vital interests; this is a rhetorical question, and it is up to them to decide.
However, massive efforts are being taken to stoke the fire of war – including by exploiting the ambitions of certain East European leaders, who have long turned their hatred for Russia and Russophobia into their key export commodity and a tool of their domestic policy. And now they want to capitalise on the Ukrainian tragedy.
In this regard, I cannot refrain from commenting on what has just been said and on media reports that have come out about plans to establish some sort of the so-called Polish-Lithuanian-Ukrainian unit. This is not about a group of mercenaries – there are plenty of them there and they are being destroyed – but about a well-organised, equipped regular military unit to be used for operations in Ukraine, including to allegedly ensure the security of today’s Western Ukraine – actually, to call things by their true name, for the subsequent occupation of these territories. The outlook is clear: in the event Polish forces enter, say, Lvov or other Ukrainian territories, they will stay there, and they will stay there for good.
And we will actually see nothing new. Just to remind you, following WWI, after the defeat of Germany and its allies, Polish units occupied Lvov and adjacent territories that had been part of Austria-Hungary.
With its actions incited by the West, Poland took advantage of the tragedy of the Civil War in Russia and annexed certain historical Russian provinces. In dire straits, our country had to sign the Treaty of Riga in 1921 and recognise the annexation of its territories.
Even earlier, back in 1920, Poland captured part of Lithuania – the Vilnius region, a territory surrounding the present-day Vilnius. So they claimed that they fought together with the Lithuanians against so-called Russian imperialism, but then immediately snatched a piece of land from their neighbour as soon as the opportunity presented itself.
As is well known, Poland also took part in the partition of Czechoslovakia following the Munich Agreement with Adolf Hitler in 1938, by fully occupying Cieszyn Silesia.
In the 1920-1930s, Poland’s Eastern Borderlands (Kresy) – a territory that comprises present-day Western Ukraine, Western Belarus and part of Lithuania – witnessed a tough policy of Polonisation and assimilation of local residents, with efforts to suppress local culture and Orthodoxy.
I would also like to remind you what Poland’s aggressive policy led to. It led to the national tragedy of 1939, when Poland’s Western allies threw it to the German wolf, the German miliary machine. Poland actually lost its independence and statehood, which were only restored thanks in a large measure to the Soviet Union. It was also thanks to the Soviet Union and thanks to Stalin’s position that Poland acquired substantial territory in the west, German territory. It is a fact that Poland’s western lands are a gift from Stalin.
Have our Warsaw friends forgotten this? We will remind them.
Today we see that the regime in Kiev is ready to go to any length to save its treacherous hide and to prolong its existence. They do not care for the people of Ukraine or Ukrainian sovereignty or national interests.
They are ready to sell anything, including people and land, just like their ideological forefathers led by Petlyura, who signed the so-called secret conventions with Poland in 1920 under which they ceded Galicia and Western Volhynia to Poland in return for military support. Traitors like them are ready now to open the gate to their foreign handlers and to sell Ukraine again.
As for the Polish leaders, they probably hope to form a coalition under the NATO umbrella in order to directly intervene in the conflict in Ukraine and to bite off as much as possible, to “regain,” as they see it, their historical territories, that is, modern-day Western Ukraine. It is also common knowledge that they dream about Belarusian land.
Regarding the policy of the Ukrainian regime, it is none of our business. If they want to relinquish or sell off something in order to pay their bosses, as traitors usually do, that’s their business. We will not interfere.
But Belarus is part of the Union State, and launching an aggression against Belarus would mean launching an aggression against the Russian Federation. We will respond to that with all the resources available to us.
The Polish authorities, who are nurturing their revanchist ambitions, hide the truth from their people. The truth is that the Ukrainian cannon fodder is no longer enough for the West. That is why it is planning to use other expendables – Poles, Lithuanians and everyone else they do not care about.
I can tell you that this is an extremely dangerous game, and the authors of such plans should think about the consequences.
Mr Naryshkin, I hope that your service, just as the other special services, will closely monitor the developments.”

A Bonfire of the Vanities
Alastair Crooke
Hubris consists in believing that a contrived narrative can, in and of itself, bring victory. It is a fantasy that has swept through the West – most emphatically since the 17th century.
Recently, the Daily Telegraph published a ridiculous nine minute video purporting to show that ‘narratives win wars’, and that set-backs in the battlespace are incidentals: What matters is to have a thread of unitary narrative articulated, both vertically and horizontally, throughout the spectrum – from the special forces’ soldier in the field through to the pinnacle of the political apex.
The gist of it is that ‘we’ (the West) have compelling a narrative, whilst Russia’s is ‘clunky’ – ‘Us winning therefore, is inevitable’.
It is easy to scoff, but nonetheless we can recognise in it a certain substance (even if that substance is an invention).
Narrative is now how western élites imagine the world. Whether it is the pandemic emergency, the climate or Ukraine ‘emergencies’ – all are re-defined as ‘wars’.
All are ‘wars’ that are to be fought with a unitary imposed narrative of ‘winning’, against which all contrarian opinion is forbidden.
The obvious flaw to this hubris is that it requires you to be at war with reality.
At first, the public are confused, but as the lies proliferate, and lie is layered upon lie, the narrative separates further and further from touched reality, even as mists of dishonesty continue to swathe themselves loosely around it. Public scepticism sets in. Narratives about the ‘why’ of inflation; whether the economy be healthy or not; or why we must go to war with Russia, begin to fray.
Western élites have ‘bet their shirts’ on maximum control of ‘media platforms’, absolute messaging conformity and ruthless repression of protest as their blueprint for a continued hold in power.
Yet, against the odds, the MSM is losing its hold over the U.S. audience. Polls show growing distrust of the U.S. MSM.
When Tucker Carlson’s first ‘anti-message’ Twitter show appeared, the noise of tectonic plates grinding against each other was unmissable, as more than 100 million (one in three) Americans listened to iconoclasm.
The weakness to this new ‘liberal’ authoritarianism is that its key narrative myths can get busted.
One just has; slowly, people begin to speak reality.
Ukraine: How do you win an unwinnable war? Well, the élite answer has been through narrative.
By insisting against reality that Ukraine is winning, and Russia is ‘cracking’. But such hubris eventually is busted by facts on the ground. Even the western ruling classes can see their demand for a successful Ukrainian offensive has flopped. At the end, military facts are more powerful than political waffle: One side is destroyed, its many dead become the tragic ‘agency’ to upending dogma.
“We will be in a position to extend an invitation to Ukraine to join the Alliance when Allies agree and conditions are met … [however] unless Ukraine wins this war, there’s no membership issue to be discussed at all” – Jens Stoltenberg’s statement at Vilnius.
Thus, after urging Kiev to throw more (hundreds of thousands) of its men into the jaws of death to justify NATO membership, the latter turns its back on its protégé. It was, after all, an unwinnable war from the beginning.
The hubris, at one level, lay in NATO’s pitting of its alleged ‘superior’ military doctrine and weapons versus that of a deprecated, Soviet-style, hide-bound, Russian military rigidity – and ‘incompetence’.
But military facts on the ground have exposed the western doctrine as hubris – with Ukrainian forces decimated, and its NATO weaponry lying in smoking ruins.
It was NATO that insisted on re-enacting the Battle of 73 Easting (from the Iraqi desert, but now translated into Ukraine).
In Iraq, the ‘armoured fist’ punched easily into Iraqi tank formations: It was indeed a thrusting ‘fist’ that knocked the Iraqi opposition ‘for six’. But, as the U.S. commander at that tank battle (Colonel Macgregor), frankly admits, its outcome against a de-motivated opposition largely was fortuitous.
Nonetheless ‘73 Easting’ is a NATO myth, turned into the general doctrine for the Ukrainian forces – a doctrine structured around Iraq’s unique circumstance.
The hubris – in line with the Daily Telegraph video – however, ascends vertically to impose the unitary narrative of a coming western ‘win’ onto the Russian political sphere too.
It is an old, old story that Russia is military weak, politically fragile, and prone to fissure. Conor Gallagher has shown with ample quotes that it was exactly the same story in World War 2, reflecting a similar western underestimation of Russia – combined with a gross overestimation of their own capabilities.
The fundamental problem with ‘delusion’ is that the exit from it (if it occurs at all) moves at a much slower pace than events. The mismatch can define future outcomes.
It may be in the Team Biden interest now to oversee an orderly NATO withdrawal from Ukraine – such that it avoids becoming another Kabul debacle.
For that to happen, Team Biden needs Russia to accept a ceasefire. And here lies the (the largely overlooked) flaw to that strategy: It simply is not in the Russian interest to ‘freeze’ the situation. Again, the assumption that Putin would ‘jump’ at the western offer of a ceasefire is hubristic thinking: The two adversaries are not frozen in the basic meaning of the term – as in a conflict in which neither side has been able to prevail over the other, and are stuck.
Put simply, whereas Ukraine structurally hovers at the brink of implosion, Russia, by contrast, is fully plenipotent: It has large, fresh forces; it dominates the airspace; and has near domination of the electromagnetic airspace.
But the more fundamental objection to a ceasefire is that Moscow wants the present Kiev collective gone, and NATO’s weapons off the battle field.
So, here is the rub: Biden has an election, and so it would suit the Democratic campaign needs to have an ‘orderly wind-down’.
The Ukraine war has exposed too many wider American logistic deficiencies.
But Russia has its’ interests, too.
Europe is the party most trapped by ‘delusion’ – starting from the point at which they threw themselves unreservedly into the Biden ‘camp’. The Ukraine narrative broke at Vilnius. But the amour propre of certain EU leaders puts them at war with reality.
They want to continue to feed Ukraine into the grinder – to persist in the fantasy of ‘total win’: “There is no other way than a total win – and to get rid of Putin … We have to take all risks for that. No compromise is possible, no compromise”.
The EU Political Class have made so many disastrous decisions in deference to U.S. strategy – decisions that go directly against Europeans’ own economic and security interests – that they are very afraid.
If the reaction of some of these leaders seems disproportionate and unrealistic (“There is no other way than a total win – and to get rid of Putin”) – it is because this ‘war’ touches on a deeper motivations.
It reflects existential fears of an unravelling of the western meta-narrative that will take down both its hegemony, and the western financial structure with it.
The western meta-narrative “from Plato to NATO, is one of superior ideas and practices whose origins lie in ancient Greece, and have since been refined, extended, and transmitted down the ages (through the Renaissance, the scientific revolution and other supposedly uniquely western developments), so that we in the west today are the lucky inheritors of a superior cultural DNA”.
This is what the narrators of the Daily Telegraph video probably had at the back of their minds when they insist that ‘Our narrative wins wars’. Their hubris resides in the implicit presumption: that the West somehow always wins – is destined to prevail – because it is the recipient of this privileged genealogy.
Of course, outside of general understanding, it is accepted that notions of ‘a coherent West’ has been invented, repurposed and put to use in different times and places.
In her new book, The West, classical archaeologist Naoíse Mac Sweeney takes issue with the ‘master myth’ by pointing out that it was only “with the expansion of European overseas imperialism over the seventeenth century, that a more coherent idea of the West began to emerge – one being deployed as a conceptual tool to draw the distinction between the type of people who could legitimately be colonised, and those who could legitimately be colonizers”.
With the invention of the West came the invention of Western history – an elevated and exclusive lineage that provided an historical justification for the Western domination.
According to the English jurist and philosopher Francis Bacon, there were only three periods of learning and civilization in human history: “one among the Greeks, the second among the Romans, and the last among us, that is to say, the nations of Western Europe”.
The deeper fear of western political leaders therefore – complicit in the knowledge that the ‘Narrative’ is a fiction that we tell ourselves, despite knowing that it is factually false – is that our era has been made increasingly and dangerously contingent on this meta-myth.
They quake, not just at a ‘Russia empowered’, but rather at the prospect the new multi-polar order led by Putin and Xi that is sweeping the globe will tear down the myth of Western Civilisation.
Browns’ Marquise Goodwin suffering from ‘alarming’ blood clots in legs, lungs
Just a reminder that these proposed new and very draconian “misinformation and disinformation” laws giving ACMA more powers to censor media and social media were first drafted under Scumbag and his utterly useless and supine Communications Minister, Paul Fletcher. Labor inherited this draft legislation. I shouldn’t need to remind anyone that the Coalition were in power in 2020, 2021 and through to May 2022.
As with “net zero”, the Coalition has ZERO credibility on this, so the fact that they’re now grandly pontificating about free speech is utter chutzpah, and makes me feel sick in the stomach. I don’t recall Bridget McKenzie speaking up for free speech in 2020 and 2021. Oh and by the way, did McKenzie vote to censor Bettina Arndt in 2020 for her free speech? Why, yes she did. The only Liberals and Nationals I recall who did speak up for free speech during the Covid hysteria were daily smeared as “anti-vaxxers” and propagators of “Covid misinformation and disinformation”. We know their names, Craig Kelly, Gerard Rennick, Alex Antic, and George Christensen, and maybe one or two others, the only one left currently standing is Alex Antic and I suspect he’s now targeted for elimination. It is they who were (and are) the brave ones. I ask, where were the other Liberals and Nationals who dared to speak up for free speech during those years? Certainly wasn’t the chronically useless Beetroot, probably too worried about how to pay the looming Riverview school fees, and I haven’t forgotten how he joined in the febrile denunciations of Katie Hopkins when she were here, loudly calling for her to be deported! What an effing hypocrite. During those years, everyday the Coalition sided with the censors, to censor the Australian people, in fact they even ganged up and censored their own, siding with Labor and the Greens to silence Craig Kelly who did speak up. Sky News Oz was taken down from Youtube for over a week in August 2021. This led to the cancelling of Alan Jones on Sky, all because he queried, questioned and critiqued vaccine mandates, lockdowns, and compulsory mask wearing. Anyone remember Scumbag and other senior Liberals and Nationals speaking up for Jones? No, there was nothing, silence.
These draconian laws will be enacted, and yes, we should blame Labor and the Greens, but let’s not forget to also lay blame with the spineless, useless, Liberals and Nationals. They started this.
Something random:
That pun-based joke in Downfall where the junior officers are sitting around getting plastered in the bunker goes “Berlin is a city of warehouses – Where is my house? Where is my house?”
The original German joke was quite similar. They relied upon the German pun of “Warenhaus” (department store) and “Da war ‘n Haus” (there was/used to be a house).

Foreign Affairs Barrage of Baloney on Ukraine is Keeping the Phoney War Going
Zelensky is not the leader who is going to negotiate peace with Russia, not now, not any time, Martin Jay writes.
Foreign Affairs magazine had a brief moment of attention beyond its normal limited elitist audience when it asked the question: “Should Ukraine Negotiate With Russia?” It presented the reader with a tome of reading which expanded on this subject and, at first glance, appeared to present a salient perspective on what we should all now accept is an unofficial ceasefire declared by Ukraine after running out of the requisite material needed for war: ammo.
Of course, it wasn’t a ceasefire declaration at all. I was humouring you and no one can blame me for this given that the quality of articles published by Foreign Affairs.
What absolute garbage these articles were! Broadly speaking, they all revolved around one incumbent theme which is boring at best and delusional at worst: that the U.S. was still a super power and held higher values that Russia and its president.
The mere idea that President Zelensky is even in a position to negotiate a peace treaty is hilarious.
But what will have you wetting yourself when you wade into the pantheon of paternalistic claptrap is how the authors fail to acknowledge that the war in Ukraine is slowly being lost by Ukraine and its NATO partners and that it is for Russia to bite the bullet and make a number of concessions before it crawls on its knees to NATO bosses and asks for forgiveness.
The authors make the point that before the West can consider peace talks Russia has to reduce its activities around the world — code for “stop making more friends and allies” — by which point western elites would allow it to return to the “table of responsible nations”.
This delusional narrative, some might argue, is what got the West in the mess it’s in, in the first place as the stellar inability to look at realities on the ground and where the U.S. is in the world today, brought us to 130 billion dollars of U.S. cash blown on supporting a war which neither the West nor Ukraine can win.
The mere idea that the West holds the high moral ground and that it is for Russia to clean its act up before it can be allowed back in as a guest member to the country club is hilarious.
These responsible nations, we should not forget faked a false flag attack in Sarajevo in the summer of 1995 just so illegal NATO air strikes could “win” the war with Milosevic; these same countries entered Afghanistan and after twenty years of fighting the Taliban had to leave with their tails between their legs after putting the enemy finally in power. And let’s not forget the U.S. army storming Baghdad and within hours looting Saddam’s gold, or even the oil which is stolen every day from Northern Syria and sold on the open market every day — all assisted by U.S. troops.
Hardly shining examples of morality at its finest. And yet, reading the articles, we are led to believe that not only is the West the only real power which matters, but that there is much to negotiate in Ukraine and even much more than Russia can do.

NEW — Leaked messages from the authors of the 2020 “Proximal Origin” paper, which denied COVID-19’s lab origin, expose scientific fraud and misconduct as they express disbelief in their paper’s own conclusions.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, an advocate of gain-of-function research, secretly commissioned the paper and later cited it at the White House podium to dismiss the lab leak theory as a “conspiracy theory.”
The paper, which resulted in social media companies banning accounts and censoring discussions on the lab leak, concluded, “Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus.”
The author’s private messages expose a different story.
And just read what they REALLY thought.

Joe Rogan Dive Deep into Epstein’s Bizarre Painting of Bill Clinton in Blue Dress: “I Got You B*tch… Holy Sh*t!” (VIDEO)
Joe Rogan, host of the immensely popular podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” recently sat down with Duncan Trussell, a versatile entertainer known for his stand-up comedy, podcast “Duncan Trussell Family Hour,” and Netflix creation, “The Midnight Gospel.”
The two dived into the disturbingly bizarre oil painting of former US President Bill Clinton that was displayed in convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse.
A law enforcement source shared with The New York Post that this peculiar piece of artwork was prominently displayed — right at the entrance — in a room to the right.
“Everybody who saw it laughed and smirked,” the source said.
Joe Rogan did not hold back during the podcast, saying, “That painting is like, I got you, b-tch. All right?
You got a president who was on the flight logs 26 times with Epstein, and you got that guy in a dress in your house.”
“That’s I got you, b-tch… that’s terrifying,” he added.
Rogan further pondered the bizarre decision to have such an outlandish piece of art, especially of a prominent figure like Bill Clinton.
The painting, according to him, seemed like a blatant assertion of power and control.
“Imagine if I knew some horrible, dark secrets about you, and you came over my house and I have a giant painting of you right when you walk into the front door of you in a dress, and I’m like, hey, buddy. How f-cking terrifying that would be!” said Rogan.
The painting’s location, in their opinion, gave Epstein a sinister type of leverage.
“You know he knows about it. I mean, you walk right in, and bam, there’s that painting,” said Rogan.
“And now you kind of control a president,” Trussell responded.
“Holy sh-t, dude” Rogan said.

Biden Regime Escalates War on American Consumers in the Name of ‘Climate Change’ — Announces New Scheme to Eliminate ‘Outdated’ Water Heaters
As Fox News notes, the truth is this scheme will actually force cheaper water heaters off the market and limit choices for American customers. Given the crushing impact Biden’s policies are having on American workers, millions will likely be unable to afford to buy a new one.
Specifically, non-condensing gas-fired water heaters will soon no longer be available. While these are supposedly less efficient, they come with lower installation costs for consumers because they are smaller and cheaper.
Instead, the Regime wants to require higher efficiency for heaters using heat pump technology. – “Note being pushed here in NSW with Big Subsidies – Speaking to Sparkys & Plumbers, the Chinese made heat pumps are inefficent and don’t heat up the water particularly well, some soon fail and then consumer up for full cost to repair or replace”
In the case of gas-fired water heaters, efficiency gains would ostensibly be achieved through condensing technology.
You will suffer while they brag to their globalist masters about how their “energy efficient” schemes supposedly cut carbon emissions.
This is the latest step in the Regime’s efforts to alter our way of life completely. Recall that in February, The Gateway Pundit’s Cristina Laila reported the Feds were considering a complete ban on gas stoves in America.
Biden officials later tried to obfuscate the national uproar before partially admitting the truth in March, saying they want to ban “some” gas stoves.
New York, in late April, followed the Regime’s signals and became the first state to ban gas stoves.
The Biden regime in May then released devastating rules to dramatically slash water and energy use limits for Americans’ dishwashers below current levels.
Finally, in June, the Regime revealed they would be finalizing new regulations severely restricting what furnaces you can buy for your home in the future and make new purchases more expensive. Up to 60% of all current residential furnaces on the market would be banned under the new proposals.

In English or in Farsi, Hypocrisy Has the Same Tawdry Ring
Stephen Karganovic
The word as it is used in English will do perfectly, because it hits the nail on the head and with devastating accuracy.
“Hypocrite” is a concept that is much overworked but lately it has gained a new freshness thanks to the serene indifference of the collective West to the trampling of its most cherished values whenever those it does not favour are affected.
It happens, oddly enough, that in the Iranian political lexicon the word “hypocrite” is a favourite expression when referring to Western governments.
In Farsi, for all we know, that word may serve as some sort of derogatory epithet with many interesting, culturally conditioned layers. But whatever the subtleties in Farsi, in relation to much of the current public behaviour in the West the English-language equivalent fits the bill perfectly.
New developments make it imperative to refocus attention on the predicament of Metropolitan Pavel, a distinguished ecclesiastical figure in Ukraine, a prince, so to speak, of that country’s Orthodox Church and abbot of its most important religious sanctuary, the Kiev Caves Monastery. The persecution he has meekly endured has caused not even a ripple in the “city on a hill”, aka the fabled collective West, the promised land of “values” where advocacy of human rights, respect for dignity, and most importantly freedom of belief, are said to be bedrock principles.
Just a few days ago, after being forcibly ejected from the premises of the Kiev Caves Monastery, which on behalf of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church he is charged with supervising and administering, and after spending two months under house arrest at a different location with a humiliating ankle bracelet like a common criminal, the Metropolitan was finally given the semblance of a hearing. He was arraigned on charges that had never been made very clear since the proceedings against him were started, but which vaguely revolve around allegations of provoking religious discord and insinuations of sympathy for Russia.
On 13 July, when he was transferred from home detention in a village near Kiev to a pre-trial detention facility, the Metropolitan’s position deteriorated significantly once he was subjected to a harsh prison regime.
His contact with the outside world is now greatly reduced and there is no guarantee that his serious diabetic condition would be medically attended in any meaningful sense. In prison, he is awaiting the filing of further criminal charges that were recently announced by the authorities.
In cynical emulation of their Western overlords’ judicial practice, pending trial the Ukrainian judges have generously consented to set bail for the Metropolitan’s provisional release. The amount was fixed at the modest sum of 33 million hryvnias, or nearly $900,000 which, naturally, the prisoner does not have.
It is uncertain whether in all of Ukraine there is a bail bond agency or pious oligarch prepared and bold enough to front this amount of cash for a man so deeply in disgrace with the country’s democratic government and its equally irreproachable institutions.
Technically however, and is that not all that counts, all the bases have been covered. In the exemplary rule-of- law democracy that is Ukraine, the presumption of innocence obviously must be fully in effect and the theoretical possibility of mounting a defence while outside prison bars has admirably been affirmed.
As in the advanced democracies that stand with Ukraine and serve as its model, until the legal process runs its course there is no necessity for an unconvict suspect to languish in prison.
There is just one catch. It is that notwithstanding the laudable desire to emulate advanced foreign models, Ukrainian judges probably were not properly briefed on what the Eighth Amendment actually holds.
It prohibits excessive bail, defined as an imposition disproportionate to the prisoner’s means, and it further mandates that the bail amount be set in relation to evidence of whether or not the prisoner poses a flight risk.
It contains also some bizarre language prohibiting “cruel and unusual punishment.”
But that should hardly impress officials of a government whose armed thugs routinely and with impunity kneecap war prisoners as well as commit a raft of other unspeakable atrocities, while making video recordings of it for their own entertainment.
Metropolitan Pavel is unlikely to have squirreled under his mattress nearly a million dollars he needs to post bail, never mind the preposterous notion that a man who had to be dragged by the police out of his Kiev Caves monastery refuge should now suddenly be regarded as a flight risk.
So it is the faithful of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church who are currently collecting hryvnias on his behalf, in the prayerful hope of at least securing their ailing hierarch’s temporary release.
All this poignantly recalls St. Paul’s “collections for the saints” in Romans 15:26 and elsewhere in the Gospels, but in secular terms it has another profound significance as well.
In an epoch less poisoned than our own Metropolitan Pavel’s circumstances would be a human interest story of the first order. A genuinely free mass communication media, which in the collective West does not exist, would run with the story and make sure that everyone on the planet was made aware of the unjustly persecuted Metropolitan and his deplorable predicament.
But alas! a thorough internet search fails to disclose any mention of it in that part of the world where human rights and freedom of conscience are so unctuously venerated.
And if, where it is falsely claimed that it flourishes, anything resembling a free press truly existed, this human interest story would be complemented urbi et orbi with the scandalous account of the plunder of holy relics from the Kiev Caves monastery which the incarcerated Metropolitan is unlawfully impeded from administering.
That heist is of a magnitude assuredly unseen since the Crusaders’ pillage of Constantinople many centuries ago. Sacred objects from the ancient Ukrainian monastery are now being forcibly expatriated abroad by the Kiev Nazi regime to collective West museums and the Vatican, and it is being done in a manner not witnessed in Ukraine even in the days of German occupation.
The official explanation for this outrage is that it is being committed not out of moral turpitude but for the good of the Church.
We are asked to believe that the sacred objects are not being brazenly stolen but merely removed far from the perils of war, to “safety” (exactly as Greek artefacts from the Acropolis had been shipped for “safekeeping” to the British Museum).
One wonders if the silent treatment given to the incarcerated Orthodox Metropolitan Pavel would have been different were he of the same persuasion as Cardinal Mindszenty or, closer to home, the Ukrainian Uniate prelate Josyf Slipyj.
Would non-entities like Lindsay Graham or Mike Pence then have felt moved to take notice and to make inquiries of their hosts in Kiev about the reasons for his incarceration?
Would the media be extolling his innocent suffering and instead of ignoring his plight would dignitaries be singing dithyrambs in his honour?
Quite likely, yes. Except that Metropolitan Pavel refused to heed the threats of regime tormentors as well as the “Christian” entreaties of Epiphanius, the head of the heretical and uncanonical Ukrainian pseudo-church to which the Metropolitan’s monastery will shortly be turned over, both demanding of him just one thing in return for freedom – to betray his Orthodox flock and join the fraudulent outfit.
That makes it extremely dubious that Pavel will benefit from good press or enjoy the benevolence of the corrupt dignitaries who personify Western values.
So we return again to the word that is the leitmotiv of this text.
Among other foolish things that Mike Pence told Tucker Carlson, he said without batting an eye that recently he had visited Ukraine and was assured by a priest that there was no religious persecution and no imprisoned churchmen in that idyllic land.
Who might have been Pence’s source for this demonstrably false information? Could it perchance be one of Epiphanius’ men?
Pence claims to be a devout Christian so on his next visit to Kiev he would do well to insist that his hosts take him to the Pre-trial Detention Centre, to check for himself.
We really should not bother with the nuances of “hypocrisy” in Farsi.
The word as it is used in English will do perfectly, because it hits the nail on the head and with devastating accuracy.
The Biden regime in May then released devastating rules to dramatically slash water and energy use limits for Americans’ dishwashers below current levels.
Finally, in June, the Regime revealed they would be finalizing new regulations severely restricting what furnaces you can buy for your home in the future and make new purchases more expensive. Up to 60% of all current residential furnaces on the market would be banned under the new proposals.

HOW NIXON ADVISED CLINTON
A remarkably interesting letter (“Eyes Only”) that Richard Nixon sent to then-President Bill Clinton in March 1994, after Nixon returned from a trip to Russia and Ukraine, has been declassified and made public.
Luke Nichter writes about Nixon’s letter in the Wall Street Journal:
Nixon anticipated a more belligerent Russia, the rise of someone like Vladimir Putin, and worsening relations between Moscow and Kyiv.
Nixon emphasized the importance of Ukraine, writing:
You will be urged to scatter the available aid money all over the former Soviet Union. This would be a mistake. You have very limited funds. All the other nations in the near abroad are important. But Ukraine is in a different class–it is indispensable.
Back to Mr. Nichter:
Nixon also warned Mr. Clinton about presidential personnel. “I learned during my years in the White House that the best decisions I made, such as the one to go to China in 1972, were made over the objections of or without the approval of most foreign service officers,” he wrote.
Nixon evidently didn’t think Mr. Clinton was being served well by his own people. “Remember that foreign service officers get to the top by not getting into trouble. They are therefore more interested in covering their asses than in protecting yours.”
Nixon also pointed out that few foreign service officers know anything about economics.
Nichter’s column is good, but I encourage you to read Nixon’s letter in its entirety – 7 Pages. It is certainly the most interesting thing I have read today.
The letter is also a reminder that Nixon was a patriot, and I think Clinton was, too. These lines seem to come from another galaxy, far away and long, long ago:
First, the good news. Everyone I talked to in the four countries I visited spoke with great respect for you, and in Kohl’s case, with genuine affection. Not one mentioned Whitewater. Some of the American media tried to get me to make a statement on it, but I turned them all off by stating that I never commented on domestic issues when I am traveling abroad.
Contrast that with Joe Biden’s disgustingly partisan overseas press conferences. Nixon continued:
I went on to say that what was most important is that we do not allow that issue or any other domestic issue to divert attention from our major foreign policy priority–the survival of political and economic freedom in Russia. I emphasized that on this issue there should still be continued strong bi-partisan support for the President’s leadership.
As I said, a far-away galaxy, long, long ago. Nixon had his faults, but he was a patriot, he was smart, and he didn’t sell out his country in exchange for millions in foreign bribes.

The Collapse of Broken-Windows Policing in New York
City, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC, 2013–22 – 17 Page PDF
Charles Murray
George Floyd’s death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer on May 25, 2020, wasfollowed by protest marches and riots. The Black Lives Matter movement mushroomed in size,funding, and influence. Mayors and city council members in major cities—New York, Seattle,San Francisco, and Los Angeles among them—urged that police funding be slashed.
In the following months, crime became more intrusive. Cities around the country
experienced large increases in shoplifting, forcing many small businesses into bankruptcy and eventually leading major chains such as Walmart, Best Buy, and Target to close stores.
In some cities, the number of homicides surged. In others, daily life began to resemble the New York City of the 1970s and 1980s, when citizens had to worry about daytime muggings and lived in an environment of panhandlers and graffiti.
The timing led to a widespread impression that George Floyd’s death had marked a breakpoint in urban crime. I shared that impression and set out to test it.
The graphs and tables that follow are based on two datasets.
One consists of the numbersfor offenses and arrests assembled from the annual volumes of the FBI’s Crime in the UnitedStates (CIUS) from 1950 to 2019.0F1 The series ends in 2019 because the FBI has subsequently transitioned to a different system, the National Incident-Based Reporting System, making national estimates of crime rates incomplete and unreliable because of problems in the transition (the FBI relies on the voluntary participation of local police agencies) combined with the measures taken to control COVID-19 in 2020.
However, the second dataset makes it possible to extend an analysis through 2022 for the three cities that are the focus of this paper. It consists of the complete arrest records for New York City from 2006 to 2022, Los Angeles from 2010 to 2022, and Washington, DC, from 2013 to 2022. This dataset and its documentation may be downloaded at the American Enterprise Institute’s website.
What I found was more complicated than a pre-Floyd/post-Floyd discontinuity. The years after 2020 did see new outbreaks of crime, but the years leading up to 2020 had paved the way
Victims in Auckland shooting named.
Looks like both were Samoan Formworkers.

Of course, the question was written by a reader and not by Madam Leavenworth himself.

Post Civil War America has always had a hugely disproportionate rate of Black Crime.
Keep in mind that the numbers are still obscured because the Black share of the Population is impossible to discover.

I wonder if Destiny thinks the 10 year bond yield is going to either break through 3.5% or 4%. Can you ask Madam Leavenworth to ask Destiny where it’s heading. It’s important for portfolio reasons.
Impossible? it’s around 13% of the population, Eddles.
There have been positives from the C-19 fiasco. Now the entire vaccine schedule blindingly followed by so many is under deep scrutiny.
Do people realize that NO placebo controlled trials have ever been carried out with all the jabs you have since birth. When this was addressed to Anthony Fauci, his response was “we’ll never do it because it’s unethical”. C-bomb! It’s criminal. I think it was RFK Jr that asked the question? … I’ll find the clip and post soon. People need context.
Factoids that people are not aware of and it’s not their fault. Legacy media under the $pell of Big-Pharma go into overdrive to discredit anyone challenging the vaccine schedule.
Meanwhile … we wait, watch and see as to whom will attack the book.

Biden Administration Rule Would Ban Nearly All Portable Gas-Powered Generators
BY TYLER DURDEN
SUNDAY, JUL 23, 2023 – 09:30 AM
After seeking to reduce the use of gas stoves, the Biden administration is pushing a proposal to ban the sale of almost all portable gas generators—which some experts have said would be disastrous for the millions of Americans who rely on such generators during power outages.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has proposed a policy (pdf 256 pages) that would remove nearly all existing portable gas generators from the market.
The new rule restricts the amount of carbon monoxide that generators can emit by forcing these generators to switch off when they reach a certain level of emissions.
Smaller gas generators would have to cut carbon monoxide emissions by 50 percent, and larger generators would have to cut emissions by up to 95 percent. Nearly all models currently available are expected to not be in compliance with the new standard.
Once the proposed rules come into effect, manufacturers would have to comply with them in just six months, a process that usually takes several years.
The rules would also ban manufacturers from stockpiling noncompliant generators before the new standards are enacted.
Generator Manufacturers Speak Out
In a June 28 press release, Susan Orenga, executive director of the Portable Generator Manufacturers’ Association, pointed out that CPSC’s proposal will “create a shortage of essential portable generators during regional and national emergencies because it will prevent the sale of portable generators that are currently available on the market.”
“Furthermore, the timing of the CPSC’s proposed changes are particularly concerning, given repeated warnings that two-thirds of North America is currently facing an energy shortfall this summer during periods of high demand,” she said.
Nearly 5 million households across the United States use gas powered generators during power outages, and they are particularly important during hurricane season, when powerful storms often knock out electric utilities.
In May, the North American Electric Reliability Corp. warned that two-thirds of North America could face blackouts and brownouts between June and September if there are “wide area” heat waves, wildfires, and droughts, and the agency attributed some blame for the problem to the Biden administration’s push for renewable energy.
The CPSC proposal came after the Department of Energy unveiled its Energy Policy and Conservation Program in February, which aims to establish new standards on consumer cooking products, including gas stoves.
The rules are expected to ban the sale of at least half of U.S. stove models.
The Department of Energy is also focusing efforts on mandating standards for dishwashers.
In a bid to improve efficiency and cut energy usage, the agency has proposed new regulations for power and water usage for standard-size and compact dishwashers during their regular cycles.
“This Administration is using all of the tools at our disposal to save Americans money while promoting innovations that will reduce carbon pollution and combat the climate crisis,” Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm said in a statement about the regulations.
It’s much higher than that.
The creation of the Hispanic Census Category by Nixon in 1970 meant that Black Puerto Ricans, Cuband, Dominicans, Mexicans and Central American aren’t classed as Black by either the Cops or the Census.
Here’s Sailer on the issue.
Amazing how Greenacre, Bankstown, Condell Park and Lakemba keep on appearing in news stories. There’s something about those suburbs, it’s at the tip of my tongue…
Electric Vehicles for Everyone? The Impossible Dream
Executive Summary
A dozen U.S. states, from California to New York, have joined dozens of countries, from Ireland to Spain, with plans to ban the sale of new cars with an internal combustion engine (ICE), many prohibitions taking effect within a decade. Meanwhile, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in a feat of regulatory legerdemain, has proposed tailpipe emissions rules that would effectively force automakers to shift to producing mainly electric vehicles (EVs) by 2032.
This is all to ensure that so-called zero-emission EVs play a central role in radically cutting carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To ensure compliance with ICE prohibitions and soften the economic impacts, policymakers are deploying lavish subsidies for manufacturers and consumers. Enthusiasts claim that EVs already have achieved economic and operational parity, if not superiority, with automobiles and trucks fueled by petroleum, so the bans and subsidies merely accelerate what they believe is an inevitable transition.
It is certainly true that EVs are practical and appealing for many drivers. Even without subsidies or mandates, millions more will be purchased by consumers, if mainly by wealthy ones. But the facts reveal a fatal flaw in the core motives for the prohibitions and mandates. As this report illustrates:
. No one knows how much, if at all, CO2 emissions will decline as EV use rises. Every claim for EVs reducing emissions is a rough estimate or an outright guess based on averages, approximations, or aspirations. The variables and uncertainties in emissions from energy-intensive mining and processing of minerals used to make EV batteries are a big wild card in the emissions calculus. Those emissions substantially offset reductions from avoiding gasoline and, as the demand for battery minerals explodes, the net reductions will shrink, may vanish, and could even lead to a net increase in emissions. Similar emissions uncertainties are associated with producing the power for EV charging stations.
. No one knows when or whether EVs will reach economic parity with the cars that most people drive. An EV’s higher price is dominated by the costs of the critical materials that are needed to build it and is thus dependent on guesses about the future of mining and minerals industries, which are mainly in foreign countries. The facts also show that, for the majority of drivers, there’s no visibility for when, if ever, EVs will reach parity in cost and fueling convenience, regardless of subsidies.
Ultimately, if implemented, bans on conventionally powered vehicles will lead to draconian impediments to affordable and convenient driving and a massive misallocation of capital in the world’s $4 trillion automotive industry.

Brittany clearly struggled with her book. As most of us would with Friday night drinks and a legover. Real soup from bones material.
True, a large number of Hispanics have black ancestors. However, how far do you drill down in the numbers. The recognized black population is about 13% and Hispanics are about the same number or a little more. If we want to get statistically pedantic we could give the black population another 2% and lower the Hispanic total. Maybe, I dunno.
I think officialdom gets its racial breakdown from the 10 year census as I recall filling out that shit and ticking the race box.
Sailer’s post doesn’t talk about the breakdown though. It just mentions how American black culture has become more uniform (homogenized) as the spread of violence is evening out across the country.
Apparently, she starts the book off with.
“It was a dark and stormy night I lay half tanked, naked on the couch.”
Wodney, can you ask Destiny to come up with the accurate number for the black population. We need something better than the unreliable census.
I haven’t heard anything from pat condell for two years. He was good. Is he still alive?
There is enough information in this presentation to make your blood boil. 9 out 10 people ( my guess ) are clueless about the information given here. Again, it’s not their fault. Legacy media are useless. Bought and paid by Big-Pharma.
Scary sh*t here.
If anyone wants to try and discredit it … good luck. There is enough info given here that you could provide a GP with a massive headache if he / she tries to say it’s BS.
This goes for 1:42:12, so ditch a netflix / tv show and watch it when you can. If you are not angry or pissed off at the end …. something is wrong with you.

Off to the podiatrist. I suspect it’s plantar fasciitis.

I thought that ban was from some councils, not from the state government? I might be wrong, nothing would surprise me anymore, particularly from the recent unlamented mint green “Liberal” (cough) government. The whole war on gas is insanity, complete insanity.
Further to local councils, and I’ve said this before, we on the right should start by running for local council elections. It’s how the Greens started, and it’s a key to their success. Begin locally, change can be done locally, like taking control of a local government and reversing gas cooktop bans, and other things, run on the slogan that councils should be about “roads, rubbish and rates”….I believe that such candidates would do well and win.

In this internet age, even libraries are not really necessary.
I’m still loving the tension between large companies and wukkas. The wukkas have found they really really lurve working from home (you can do Facechook, so long as it’s on another device out of sight from your laptop camera). The companies can’t seem to get them to come into the office, no matter what they try. Latest is Amazon:
Amazon is asking some corporate workers to relocate as part of its return-to-office policy (via Phys.org, 22 Jul)
Who knew that “voluntary resignation” now means involuntary sacking? The English language is very malleable, and Homo Sapiens are very inventive at getting out of stuff they don’t want to do.

Ah, the sting in the tail of “work from home”.
Once you have proven that you don’t have to attend your job in the expensive London/Manhattan/Sydney offices, it is a very short step for the company to relocate your job to Luton/Lubbock/Dubbo.
Or even Lahore/Nairobi/Lusaka.
Yeah, it rhymes but hard to just casually drop it into 2021 Canberra context.
Maybe shandies?
“If only I’d drunk shandies,
And not forgot my panties.”
What Amazon is doing isn’t a whole lot different to what Musk did at Twatter.
“If you don’t show up Monday, I will assume you have abandoned your employment.”
A bit awkward for someone who has rented out their SF apartment, moved to LA and moonlighting in another job while pulling a Twatter salary for doing s.f.a.
I never use the word “panties”, I use the word “undies” or “knickers”.
Sheridan doesn’t really like ‘based’ conservatism, indicated by his swipe at Orban. Meloni appears to be largely a phoney. I’m interested to see what happens with Vox in Spain. But the idea that a conservative party can be for gay marriage is absurd, right-liberal sure, but not conservative.

In some cities, the number of homicides surged. In others, daily life began to resemble the New York City of the 1970s and 1980s, when citizens had to worry about daytime muggings and lived in an environment of panhandlers and graffiti.
I visited New York for the first time in 2012, although my husband had been there previously. We had decided to visit the eastern coast “in the Fall” in order to see the magnificent autumn colours in places like Connecticut, New Hamphire, Vermont etc. I simply loved New York – wonderful galleries, shops, restaurants and of course Central Park. We travelled on the subway & were pleasantly surprised how safe it felt and friendly everyone was to us Aussies. It is so very, very sad to hear how robberies and a general decline in personal safety has increased since the change in the city’s political direction.

Sancho,
Eminently droppable into the Canberra context is “gantries”. Not quite a rhyme, but close enough for most.
Another reason not to live in one.
But how does that work when buying gas appliances is legal? I know, I’m being naïve. If places won’t take cash* – and that’s legal tender – why would I think gas companies, gas appliance manufacturers and consumers could be able to stand up against petty tyrants in local government banning gas appliances from new unit developments?
*The other day, my dad went to a Services NSW office to renew his firearms licence. They had no facilities to accept cash. He had to mail the remittance.
“Knickers” and “snickers” rhyme well, and the latter has two meanings, as the chocolate, which suits her, err, recently expanded silhouette, and as a subdued laugh (at someone who goes out boozing with no knickers).
Now we’re cookin’ with gas (if that’s even legal anymore).
Leave it with me.

Don’t scoff, it has a vague political connection.
True, a large number of Hispanics have black ancestors. However, how far do you drill down in the numbers.
Not far.
George Zimmerman [of Trayvon Martin fame] had Black Ancestry on his Peruvian mother’s side.
No one’s calling him Black.
Many Cubans [see: Jose Napoles, Juan Marichal, going back many decades], Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Peruvians, Panamanians are Blackety Black and they were counted as such until Nixon created the Hispanic Category. in 1970 in response to comprehehensive Crime figures that were probably only able to be compiled due to computers.
It was a neat trick by Nixon, but it masked the scale of the disaster by offloading a significant amount of Black Criminality onto the new category.
Got a Spanish name?
You’re Hispanic, particularly if you’re on a Murder Charge
The recognized black population is about 13% and Hispanics are about the same number or a little more.
Sure.
Prior to 1970, these people were either White or Black.
Here’s a story about Chris Lane, Aussie who was shot dead by an Hispanic who had his Life Sentence verturned.
The Orc who was driving only served 2 years.
See Cassie’s response to panties.
Actually, I can see a bunch of trans people like that Bud Light bloke saying “panties”, rather than undies or knickers. That’s because in not understanding how women actually think or, are, they are limited to a presumption of knowing.
Cialdini’s ‘Influence: Science and Practice’ recognises this motive for parents of transitioned children to go ‘all in for trans’, under the influence trigger ‘commitment and consistency’. They cannot admit they collaborated with Mengele-level mutilation of their child, so become advocates for doing the same to other people’s children.
