It’s not irrelevant. The point of raising that incident, among others, was to establish that Ukraine has a pattern of either deliberately targeting civilians or being indifferent to harming civilians. I deferred to the above because you were contesting whether the driver knew he was a travelling explosive or didn’t.
Not at all.
It is neither. It simply admits that the Russians are doing nothing different in their targeting of civilian infrastructure that isn’t also done by other belligerents in a conflict. The Russians took control of the DNPP. Again, it makes no sense why they’d shell it when they are in its possession.
I see you’re still failing to address the criticisms raised earlier about the apartment bombings being a false-flag.
The mobilizations were going to occur post-election and were already obvious. No need for false-flag. It’s pretty clear they’re gearing up for offensive actions in the near future. As for the second, well, they are getting 10K volunteers per month; probably a slow, steady simmer.
Delusional.
Of course they are.
Starting To Notice That The Energy Transition Is Not Happening
Supposedly, there is a big energy transition going on. Throughout the West, countries have made ambitious pledges to reduce “greenhouse gas” emissions by specific percentages and by specific dates. Many such pledges were notably made in the Paris Climate Agreement of 2016. Some countries — for example, the U.S. and UK — have even gone beyond the Paris Agreement and made still more ambitious pledges in the years since then. But is any of it real? No, none of it is real. The failure to make the progress that would be necessary to achieve the alleged pledges and mandates is obvious and easily tracked. But a code of silence has enveloped the progressive media, commanding that no one is allowed to notice.
A small crack in the wall of silence suddenly happened in the New York Times on March 14. The front page article had the headline “A New Surge in Power Use Is Threatening U.S. Climate Goals.” The gist is that various sources of new electricity demand are rapidly emerging, from data centers to EVs to AI. Demand for electricity is starting to rise, but wind and solar generators can’t be added to the grid fast enough to fulfill this demand. And thus utilities are starting to add large numbers of new natural gas plants.

I deferred to the above because you were contesting whether the driver knew he was a travelling explosive or didn’t.
Not just, but totally irrelevant because you first have to establish it was in fact a suicide bombing mission. You haven’t , but then you also brought out the dead kids (always a tear jer ker) to somehow prove it was the ukes, which you haven’t done. For all we know, it was the Russians playing another dirty trick. It’s not as though they haven’t in the past.
So targeting civilians is fine by the Russians as long as it continues in the same pattern, but using cluster bombs by the other side, is so so wrong. Winning argument.
I see you’re still failing to address the criticisms raised earlier about the apartment bombings being a false-flag.
?
What is there to address? You didn’t offer any criticisms. All you did was put forward a denial, which is always expected from you when defending Putin and his thugocarcy.
Obvious to who? You? How do you know it’s pretty clear to the public and that the call-up has really hit home and what it means? You don’t.
To repeat, there’s more likelihood this was a Putin operation than it was Ukrainian.
Here’s your problem. If you can’t even say the Russian election was a total sham that makes the Demonrats cheating in 20 look like child’s play, how can you now criticize the likely cheating that will go on in 24?

NY State Appeals Court cuts Trump civil case bond for him to appeal the initial decision down to 175 mn USD.
Not looking good for James and her idea to create a Marxist empire of extortion and graft out of the NY AG office by stealing land from people by abusing her power sympatico with activist judges.
Trump says he will post the appeal bond for the civil case in cash.

Trump won’t have $175M on hand to pay in ten days either, every bank that Eric went to to beg for the cash laughed at him. Not much of a win. Trump’s cashflow is still screwed.

BBC presenters have been advised to challenge guests who accuse others of ‘transphobia’ after the broadcaster conceded that news reports on J.K. Rowling didn’t meet its editorial standards, resulting in two recent apologies to the author.
“Care is needed…with the use of the term ‘transphobic’ to describe people who would not themselves accept that label”, said an internal briefing to journalists.
One wonders how many BBC journalists are actually familiar with their organisation’s editorial standards? Perhaps a refresher course is in order, with journalists having to pass a test before returning to duty?
Kim Williams, take note; there are quite a few ABC star journalists who imagine such standards of fairness don’t apply to them.

I see Trump has quoted Psalms comparing himself to Jesus Christ today during his interminable rants.
No doubt the conservative “Christians” on here will applaud zealously.
I gather the Appellate Court in NY has also said that New York cannot move on Trump’s properties while his appeal is under way.
Poor Letitia will just have to walk meekly by his properties and update her website with something other than the snowballing bond amount. Perhaps pictures of cats.
Mind you, looking at her, she would prefer them battered and deep fried, with cheese, with an array of dipping sauces.

Years ago now I read an article about the differences between Japanese and German car manufacture. Both methods produce good cars but apparently of a car comes off the line with a fault the Japs stop the line analyse the processes that caused the fault and fix the process.
The Germans have a team of expert mechanics at the end of the line to fix the faults that come through.
Boeing needs to adopt the Japanese process.
I suspect American car companies just shoved all the cars off to the dealerships.

‘REVENGE: OUR DAD THE NAZI KILLER is a feature length murder mystery documentary that follows three Jewish brothers in Melbourne who stumble on a family secret: their father, a Holocaust survivor and WWII partisan, allegedly went to Sydney in the 1950s to undertake a revenge killing against a Nazi. As they delve into the past they unexpectedly unearth a web of Nazi networks Down Under, covert Jewish vigilante groups, and multiple cases of Nazis who mysteriously died or disappeared in post-WWII Australia.’ – IMDB

Spoiler alert, just like UN Resolution 2758 of October 1971,
where Chiang Kai Chek was ordered to “tell his story walking”, as he held no authority in the UN, the US, at least officially, agrees that there is one China only AND that Taiwan is part of it.
You also bring up the Korean Air incident. It is true that the B747 was destroyed by a Russian fighter acft, but there were indeed multiple attempts to correct the acft’s tracking before it was fired upon.
Ref Malaysian Air, it was not the Russians who destroyed that acft.
It was a Russian made missile, certainly, but not Russian forces using it.

Ace has an excellent take on the Russian slaughter. Here’s a bit;
“So who really committed the terrorist attack on a Russian theatre full of people last week, killing some 133 people? ISIS has claimed “credit” for the attack with its operatives, supposedly Tajik-speaking Central Asians. Whoever they are, they are small fry, well-trained in ISIS attack techniques, but obviously with someone bigger backing them.
There are plenty of others who may have been, not the least of whom is Vladimir Putin, who has been implicated in other terror attacks done for political purposes in his past. . .
. . . Now a new name emerges, none other than pro-Ukraine warmongering Democrat State Department operative Victoria Nuland, who left office for greener, swampier pastures a few weeks ago.”

Some excellent articles today & last few days in Quadrant &The Australian Spectator. Will see if I can post one when I get back to the regular computer.
I don’t have to establish anything of the sort. It could have been a suicide bombing or a bomb placed in the truck unbeknownst to the driver and exploded remotely. Either way it doesn’t matter, as I wrote above:
The point of raising that incident, among others, was to establish that Ukraine has a pattern of either deliberately targeting civilians or being indifferent to harming civilians. I deferred to the above because you were contesting whether the driver knew he was a travelling explosive or didn’t.
Re the ‘tear jerker’ claim, I referenced a family killed in an nearby vehicle. which is relevant to the claim that they are, at the very least, indifferent to civilian casualties. Lastly, as for this persist rubbish that it might have been the Russians in another false-flag, even the Ukrainian media fingered the SBU.
How did you get the above from: It simply admits that the Russians are doing nothing different in their targeting of civilian infrastructure that isn’t also done by other belligerents in a conflict. The Russians took control of the DNPP? Incredible.

As Princess of Wales reveals diagnosis, doctors warn of mysterious cancer ‘epidemic.’ (25 Mar)
The article is in the UK Telegraph. Not only due to Covid as the article points out, although I suspect there’s been another significant spike from the vaccines. Previously saying stuff like this would not be allowed by the censors though. Something is causing in young people increased abdominal cancer incidence this century so far, although perhaps it is also a result of better detection. These days you can be imaged by ultrasound or MRI as easy as. So picking up cancers serendipitously with other ailments would be much more likely than before.

On the subject of Grant’s drinking, Davis makes the point that, in Mexico, and, later on the Pacific Coast, “Perhaps Grant did overindulge. He was twenty six years old, fifteen hundred miles from home, engaged to a woman he had not seen in years, (Later, on the Pacific Coast, he had not seen Julia for years, and a child he had never seen) bored and lonely, and surrounded by hundreds of others in the same situation – a virtual prescription for treatment by bottle. If he drank too much, no superior complained, and nowhere in a stationary army would such laxity show up than in a Quartermaster’s duties – a role Grant was filling at the time.

“…Trump paying a nine-figure sum in court fines for fraud is a win for Trump.”
It doesn’t seem to me that you are paying much attention to this case M0nty.
The $175m is NOT a fine, it is a bond that he must post to appeal.
As others have noted, the court of appeals also stayed any action on seeking confiscation of properties to “pay” the fine.
As well they should – Trump was found guilty on a summary judgement. That is, the prosecutors presented their “evidence”, the judge said “no trial needed – he’s guilty, just need to show how much”, and thence ignored testimony by Trumps lenders that they were never misled, never lost money, and indeed would be more than happy to do such lucrative business with Trump again.
And the evidence that Trump was “fraudulently” inflating his asset values? Why, the official tax appraiser value of, say, Mar-a-Lago. Yep, that’s only worth $18m – never mind that the place right next door that is not even 1 acre is valued at > $25M, and Mar-a-Lago is water-to-water and 18 acres or so.
Didn’t matter that several real estate people testified that the place was worth as much as 50 times the official evaluation, because the judge already decided he was guilty.
See the “Shark Tank” guy? At this point, I guarantee he’s not the only one looking to divest from any and every thing in NY business. And Lelita’s claim that “you don’t have to worry, you’re not Trump” not only exposes the corruption, but actually means such investors are even more worried – there is no rule of law, and they can turn on you and bankrupt you any time you upset them. They won’t make a big noise about it, but you can be sure that anyone with significant money tied up in NY RE is looking at what they can do to minimise their risk, up to and including dumping whatever they can as long as the loss isn’t too high – better to drop $10m right now, than be exposed to $1B down the track.
Ominous.
Also a practice run for minority government?
Don’t tell mUnturd, but “Tish” James was apparently seen outside Trump Tower, singing “This Nearly Was Mine”.
It’s easy to tell when you lot run out of arguments: when you fall back on the good old tu quoque fallacy. Which is most of the time.
Convicting Trump will only give a chilling effect to those who are massive, decades long fraudsters like him.
Also: yes, Republicans already spent decades chasing Democrat politicians with endless open-ended investigations that turned up nothing. Ever since Watergate they have been itching to pin something of equal significance on the other side. So far, nothing. And now Trump is in the middle of starring in Watergate II: Dim and Dimmer.

@Pro__Trading

Trump’s net worth from Truth Social is a paper gain at this stage. He won’t be able to sell stock for six months unless the board makes an exception. I’d take it easy before saying this is money in the bank. TR appears to be hugely overvalued and hyped. Current estimates suggest it will open with a market cap of US$5 billion.
This appears out of whack, but we’ll see. The stock (symbol DJT) opens this evening.
Truth social may as well be called ‘we support Trump and have put money into it”.
It has as much value as a junkie lawyer giving advice in a foreign nation in an industry hes never been involved in.
I think Elon and Trump discussed a loan (no longer needed).
Truth Social is worth a few billion if Reddit is 15 bn, and we know Reddit is worthless. As soon as the AI guys take a good snapshot of Reddit, they won’t buy more data.
Stack Exchange, Quora, and Reddit, all improved and cloned somewhat into a single platform, run by AI and deployed for only tens of millions of dollars. They only need to sell 20 mn of data and targeted ads for a few years and they’re more profitable than Reddit ever was.

No, it wouldn’t “stop” Israel from doing anything.
All it does is justify one of the “big boys” going in and “enforcing” that resolution, which none of them will do.
The UNSC cease fire resolution would appear to be a dead letter as Hamas have already attached conditions to the release of hostages.

Roy Morgan Federal voting intention: Support for the ALP and L-NP Coalition is even in late March – ALP 50% cf. L-NP 50%
Support for the ALP was down 1.5% to 50% in late March and now even with the L-NP Coalition on 50% (up 1.5%) on a two-party preferred basis.
If a Federal Election were held now the result would be a hung parliament with the support of minor parties and independents required for either of the major parties to form minority government, the latest Roy Morgan survey shows.
A look at the States shows the biggest swing to the Coalition was in Queensland – up 5.5% points. The swing in Queensland came after the poor showing for the ALP at the previous week’s local government and key by-elections in the seats of Inala (19.5% swing to LNP) and Ipswich West (17.9% swing to LNP).
Primary support for the L-NP Coalition increased 1% to 38% and is now clearly ahead of the ALP on 31.5%, unchanged from a week ago.
Support for the Greens increased 1.5% to 14% and One Nation support dropped 1% to 4.5%. Support for Independents was down 1.5% to 7.5% and support for Other Parties was unchanged at 4.5%.

Authorities have confirmed campers who started a devastating bushfire that destroyed eight properties by charging their phones with a car battery will not be charged as they plead for people not to be “silly” with warm weather approaching for Easter.
Emergency Services Minister Stephen Dawson confirmed Tuesday afternoon that the fire, which started Saturday, had been downgraded to a watch and act after previously being at an emergency-level blaze.
“Over the last 24 hours, firefighters with aerial support have managed to contain the fire spread and the strength,” Mr Dawson said.
“We are not out of the woods just yet. It’s still not under control, but things are certainly looking much better than they were a few days ago.”

After the last few years of plentiful rain and mild temperatures I’ve grown accustomed to the huge variety of green to be found in the natural vegetation around here. Recently we had another 30 odd mm and the green just seems to have intensified. It’s quite something, I’m guessing it’s because this flora doesn’t normally get to see such a run of good years. It’s literally bursting.

Get home to find my mother and sister have been the victims of an aggravated burglary. House is locked up tight so they smashed a window. Woke mum up but she decided it was possums and didn’t investigate. Stole one car. Police said they wouldn’t be back despite having a house key but mum got the locks changed immediately anyhow. Just as well as they came back for the other car.
They got caught though, with the first car, a write off, in the outer east, four 15 to 17 year olds of unknown appearance who also left finger prints on the window.
I suppose my mother and sister will eventually be invited to a restorative justice session.

Hey, big Spender’s got $40m;
Teal independent Allegra Spender has become one of the richest members of the Australian parliament – and the richest female MP – emerging from the finalisation of her late fashion designer mother Carla Zampatti’s will with an unencumbered property portfolio that could be worth close to $40m.
Spender, who is the member for Wentworth in Sydney’s inner east, is now the sole owner of her famous mother’s mansion in Woollahra, which is said to be worth in the order of $25m.
Spender, 46, is now also sole owner of a substantial holding on Darling Point’s New Beach Rd, which she previously held in conjunction with her mother, who passed away in April 2021 following a fall at a night out at the opera, aged 78.
The Darling Point home is situated directly opposite the prestigious Cruising Yacht Club of Australia. Other residents of the harbourfront street include billionaire industrialist scion Ryan Stokes and his wife Claire.
Ownership of the historic Woollahra home, which is to the rear of Edgecliff Rd in the leafy, affluent suburb, was transferred to the politician on March 7, while full control of the Darling Point properties, which are held over two titles, occurred on March 9.
Both properties are within the boundaries of Spender’s federal electorate.
Spender and her husband Mark Capps, who is a strategy executive and shareholder at Canva, having previously worked at McKinsey, Google and Uber, call the Darling Point property home.
The couple also have a holiday home at Sydney’s Great Mackerel Beach on Pittwater. Spender’s register of members’ interests reveals that Spender and Capps have also recently paid off a mortgage on an investment property, which appears to be the seaside home.
Great Mackerel Beach is an ideal location for a politician’s getaway, with the suburb only accessible by water, either by private boat, the regular ferry service from Palm Beach wharf or a water taxi service.
While clearly no issue in her own backyard, the first-time MP has been vocal on the housing affordability crisis in Australia, which she has previously said had “become a flashpoint for intergenerational equity”.
Spender last year was advocating for a Citizens’ Assembly on Housing to facilitate a proper national debate.
The body, she proposed, would comprise a group of everyday people who would consider the problem and advise government.
One major problem that Spender’s multimillion-dollar property portfolio does present, however, is the prospect of a significant annual land tax bill from the NSW government.
The payment is levied on properties other than the residential home, with Spender’s holdings exceeding the threshold for ownership by millions of dollars.

Right now in the U.S., the Demonrats have a plan to gain more power. They want to put more undocumented immigrants in cities to increase their numbers in the next census. If it works, they could control the government for a long time.
But to make this plan work, they need to win Congress and the presidency in 2024. Conversely, Trump will begin mass deportations.
However, the demons are facing some challenges, like losing support from groups such as black males and Latinos.
The next election is going to be a really big freaking deal, with a lot on the line for the country’s future.
Thank you all.
Funny, I hadn’t told them about being pickpocketed and they hadn’t told me about being aggravatedly burgled.
You are right Roger, other family members who were victims of an aggravated burglary by young Aboriginals (in Queensland) refused a restorative justice session because nothing that was stolen was returned, not the baby’s Christmas presents, not the expensive missals and like the Queensland case, the car was a write off.

What else has changed after the last several decades, sexual habits, drug use, contraceptive use, diet, exercise? For example there is a direct link between sexual activity from a young age and young women getting cancer of the cervix but no, it’s the vaccine, even before it was invented.

When the finished story aired, I’d been misquoted/misrepresented so that my meaning was diametrically reversed, and the entire story had been jaw-droppingly manipulated to leave entire aspects clean out of the story & to totally misrepresent & mislead as to the matter being reported upon.
The Rabz doctrine is, if anything, too lenient on that whole show.

Peter FitzSimons seeks costs from Bruce Lehrmann for defamation case subpoena
By ellie dudley
Columnist Peter FitzSimons has asked the Federal Court to make Bruce Lehrmann pay his costs for producing documents relating to Brittany Higgins’ $325,000 book deal during the former Liberal staffer’s defamation battle against Network 10 and television presenter Lisa Wilkinson.
Lawyers for FitzSimons made an application on March 14, released by the court on Tuesday, requesting Justice Michael Lee order Mr Lehrmann pay costs incurred by FitzSimons when responding to a subpoena.
FitzSimons was issued the subpoena in June last year to produce documents relating to the deal he helped broker between Ms Higgins and Penguin Random House.
Justice Lee will determine whether the costs will be awarded after he delivers his judgment of the defamation proceedings on April 4.
FitzSimons, a well-known author and writer for the Sydney Morning Herald, is married to Wilkinson, who is the second respondent in the matter.
Mr Lehrmann sued Ten and Wilkinson over her interview with Ms Higgins on The Project in 2021, detailing accusations that Mr Lehrmann had raped Ms Higgins but not naming him as the alleged attacker.
Mr Lehrmann has always maintained his innocence, and says no sexual intercourse ever took place between him and Ms Higgins.

Brittany Higgins’ leaked texts detail $325,000 advance on book dealBrittany Higgins’ leaked text messages with fiancé David Sharaz and Nine News columnist Peter Fitzsimons… have raised questions over her $325,000 book deal. Sky News host Sharri Markson sat down with Daily Mail Senior Reporter Charlotte Karp who broke the story to discuss the legal, financial and ethical implications More
During the aborted rape trial of Mr Lehrmann in 2022, it emerged that prominent author FitzSimons had negotiated the advance for Ms Higgins’s book. Industry sources suggested publisher Penguin Random House hoped to sell at least 100,000 copies at $29.99 each.
Ms Higgins, during Mr Lehrmann’s criminal trial, said she was approached by FitzSimons and Wilkinson at an event where FitzSimons offered to act as her agent.
“I really didn’t ask him, he absolutely approached me,” she said.
Ms Higgins said “within a day” FitzSimons told her he had an offer for $325,000 for a book outlining her experiences.
“I just felt I needed to document my experience,” she said.
The court heard Ms Higgins responded by saying she had the chapters outlined for “the last month or so”. When asked if the chapters were outlined before she gave a formal interview to police, Ms Higgins said: “Yes.”
The judgment for the landmark case battle will be handed down on April 4.
Justice Michael Lee alerted parties and media late Wednesday afternoon that he would hand down what is expected to be a very lengthy decision early next month, which will determine whether Mr Lehrmann was defamed by the television network and Wilkinson when they aired an interview with alleged rape victim Brittany Higgins.
He will likely deliver a short verbal judgment on April 4, with longer reasons to be published for the public in full.
Fitzsimian upset:
