Thanks to all the Cats encouraging me to take up Aly’s offer to meet. Roger, your “proceed with caution” is duly noted.

I hope she agrees and, if so, I’m going to wear a full niqab.

Been reflecting on the appointment of RFK Jnr as US Health Poohbah.

Can’t see a downside. It’s going to annoy everyone. And especially his wizened-up, disapproving, rustedon family.

I am not as concerned as I was initially.
His more off-the-wall stuff (getting rid of proven vaccines or fluoride) won’t fly in Congress or the Senate.
The best he could do is push freedom of choice, so if a particular local government wanted to ditch fluoride they could put it to the vote.

Earlier today I posted the preposterous article in today’s Oz by an Australian medical professor urging Aussies to keep up with their Covid boosters. I alerted my good friend Dr. Phil Altman (retired PhD pharmacologist who has tirelessly opposed the Covid vaccines) & he has written this response:
REPLY TO A “TOP DOCTOR” ON ADVICE TO GET BOOSTED AGAIN
Sales are falling…..something must be done.PHILLIP.ALTMAN
NOV 15

We have been repeatedly lied to about COVID and the COVID “vaccines” (CLICK HERE for my list of 62 lies so far). More and more people are awake to the scam. But sales of the injections are falling and something must be done. 

A friend of mine drew to my attention an article in today’s Australian Newspaper entitled: “Confused about Covid-19 jabs? Here’s what a top doctor says” by  Prof. Steve Robson who is claimed to be “one of Australia’s most highly qualified surgical specialists, researchers and teachers”. Wow! Impressive. I personally do not read newspapers anymore as they are generally full of propaganda narratives. 

I have attached below some text (in italics) of the article and provided my own brief comments to contrast with the opinion of the good Professor.
PROFESSOR: “Yet as I prepared to travel overseas for work this month, I was shocked to realise that I had totally lost track of my Covid immunisation status. After hanging on every announcement from the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) – Australia’s expert immunisation advisory body – I had dropped the ball utterly. I couldn’t even remember the current Covid vaccination recommendations. I don’t think I’m alone in this, however. Vaccination rates in general are falling fast.”

COMMENT: It is no wonder vaccination rates are falling fast. More and more people know that the COVID-19 “vaccines” do not prevent one from getting COVID and there are many serious adverse events and death linked to the shots. Moreover, people are dying from cancer, cardiovascular disease and neurological disease all over the world at higher than expected rates ever since the shots were introduced. Maybe he is unaware.

The damage toll was nicely summarised by Nicolas Hulscher in his Substack of 3 November 2024 –

1.      Rancourt et al: estimated 17 million COVID-19 vaccine deaths worldwide by September 2023 .

2.      Mostert et al: estimated 3.1 million excess deaths likely attributed to COVID-19 vaccination/lockdowns among 47 countries of the Western World from 2020 to 2022.

3.      Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS): 37,966 reported COVID-19 vaccine deaths – under-reporting factor of 31 yields 1,176,946 COVID-19 vaccine deaths among countries that use VAERS. 

4.      Skidmore: estimated 278,000 Americans may have died from the COVID-19 vaccine by December 2021. 

5.      Pantazatos and Seligmann: estimated 146,000 to 187,000 possible vaccine-associated deaths in the United States by August 2021. 

6.      Hulscher et al (I): estimated 49,240 excess cardiac arrest deaths possibly due to COVID-19 vaccination in the U.S. from 2021-2023.

7.      Hulscher et al (II): found a high likelihood of a causal link between COVID-19 vaccines and death from analysis of 325 autopsies. 

8.      Aarstad and Kvitastein: found a higher COVID-19 vaccine uptake was associated with increased all-cause mortality. 

9.      Alessandria et al: found all-cause death risks to be higher for those vaccinated with one and two COVID-19 vaccine doses compared to unvaccinated individuals. The subjects vaccinated with 2 doses lost 37% of life expectancy compared to the unvaccinated population during follow-up. 

Rather than just repeating the bad ATAGI advice, maybe the good Professor should do some reading. Many might even characterise the advice as “misinformation”. 

PROFESSOR: “When I checked, I found that the current Australian advice is for adults aged between 18 and 64 years – my age group – to “consider” boosters every year based on a “risk-benefit assessment”. If you are immunocompromised, then you should “consider” yearly boosters. The advice is clearer if you’re 75 or older: have a six-monthly booster. If you’re in the 65 to 74 age group, have a yearly booster.”

COMMENT: The AstraZeneca “vaccine” was withdrawn due to serious blood clotting. Some jurisdictions including American States no longer recommend the mRNA shots and many highly qualified and credentialed clinicians and scientists are calling for the total withdrawal of the mRNA “vaccines” worldwide. There has been no credible “risk-benefit analysis”…..this is the problem. The claim that the shots saved 20 million lives is a fallacy based on reckless modelling using fairytale assumptions of vaccine efficacy and safety. No drug in history has been reported to cause such a high incidence of serious adverse reactions, sickness and death. The good Professor seems to leave this information out in his glowing recommendations.
What other vaccine is so unsafe and ineffective that you need it every 6 months or every year and people are still not protected? The Covid-19 “vaccines” have produced more serious adverse events then all other vaccines combined going back decades (which amount to a higher number of total vaccine injections).

PROFESSOR:  “Let’s start with the benefits of a vaccination. There’s no doubt that having a Covid-19 booster reduces the chance that you’ll catch the infection a bit, but more importantly it reduces the chance you’ll become really ill by a lot. It might also help to reduce the chance you’ll infect someone else if you catch it.”

COMMENT: The terms “a bit” and “a lot” really make you wonder why the good Professor has not cited any science. In fact, credible evidence exists to support the view that the Covid “vaccines” damage your immune system and make one more susceptible to COVID-19. NSW hospital statistics show the most highly vaccinated people are most likely to be recorded as seriously ill with COVID-19. Below is just one of a number of papers on this point.

DownloadPROFESSOR: “Vaccination is fundamental to public health. It has been estimated that vaccines have saved more than 150 million human lives in the last half-century. They are among the most effective medical treatments available to our species. An analysis by some of the world’s foremost scientists, recently published in The Lancet, estimated that 20 million lives had been saved by Covid-19 vaccination during the course of the pandemic.”

COMMENT: Here we go again……20 million lives saved and I suspect the good Professor doesn’t even know from where this figure or the 150 million figure came. What we do now know is that vaccines, as a therapeutic group, are the most poorly researched class of drug with little to no long term safety supporting their usage. The vaccine industry refuses to conduct credible long term safety studies, especially versus proper non-vaccinated control groups, because they don’t need to (they have legal indemnity) and they don’t want to know the answer. 

PROFESSOR: “Covid vaccines aren’t perfect, but exhaustive global studies attest to their impressive record of safety and performance. A study of hundreds of thousands of Danish adults found that immediate adverse reactions were common, with pain, swelling at the injection site, and tiredness very common. Those are harmless to the average person.”
COMMENT: While the Professor admits to certain minor temporary annoying side effects he goes on to mention certain serious adverse effects such as clotting, stroke, brain inflammation, myocarditis and autoimmune disease. However, there seems to be no recognition of the true high incidence of these serious side effects. 

A recent Substack by Steve Kirsch (CLICK HERE) nicely summarises the results of a recent adverse reaction survey from the US involving 99 million people. Only looking at a limited window of 42 days after vaccination and not recording any deaths (why not?), here is what was reported in the Global Vaccine Data Network:

So, my advice to the good Professor is to not take ATAGI advice without doing a little of your own homework. In my opinion, ATAGI contains a number of highly conflicted industry linked individuals interested in the promotion of vaccine products which are not supported by proper efficacy and safety data – especially long term safety data. So Steve – pause, take a deep breath and reconsider before you get your next booster and advise others to do the same. 

LOL, Hendo on Waleed (may as well be Muntard):

Tuesday November 5
Waleed: Kamala Harris is going to win. My theory is Trump has fewer ways to win. Kamala has a bit more room for error in the people she’s targeting. Whereas Trump is really going for a particular kind of voter, especially a male voter and especially a young voter. The problem is these are people that typically do not go out and vote. But he is doing a highwire act and Kamala’s wire is slightly wider.

Today
Last week, a historically unpopular government, presiding over a period of high inflation that saw food prices especially explode, got thrown out of office. There is quite simply nothing extraordinary about that. There were some quirks along the way – Biden’s withdrawal, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally – but the essential grammar of the contest remained. Three-quarters of Americans said they were financially worse off than four years ago.

Frankly, the Republicans should be winning that election. It’s an anti-incumbent’s dream. Voters’ two biggest concerns – the economy and immigration – happened to be the Republicans’ two biggest strengths. We saw almost every demographic (black women the exception) in almost every county swing Republican.

Fox News contributor Ben Domenech on Matt Gaetz. Par for the course.

Dickless, benny is very even with his tirades; for instance he described Seth Meyers thus:

an “untalented piece of shit” and “monumental asshole” who “only has his job because he regularly gargled Lorne Michaels‘ balls”. 

Krudd on social media posting pics of himself with all sides is hardly gratifying or helpful. Of most unhelpfulness is his photo with Trump’s “insider” caddy.

This can’t help Australia.

Krudd thinks everything is about him and thinks he’s “so smart” by posting a photo with an insider… and he’s our head of diplomacy with the US…

Beijing has nominated Anthony Albanese as the leader other American allies should emulate

That’s like being nominated as Jeffrey Dahmer’s favourite chef.

Well, that makes life interesting… the Mad Mullete, Payman, is not supporting the misinformation bill.

I did not see that coming.

Time for a cute owl; and since I began with Elon’s era and a S-F cute owl last time, I thought I’d follow up with a cute owl who could handle the leftoids:

Good afternoon,  

We need to keep the pressure on the government.

You won’t believe what the government admitted to in Senate estimates last week.

Every few months, the Opposition gets to grill the government on its bad legislation and ideological decision-making in Canberra – and that’s exactly what the Coalition did last week.

The most concerning revelation that we made: Labor’s so-called ‘transition package’ for the ban & phase-out of the live sheep trade, another slap in the face to hardworking Aussie sheep farmers, won’t see a cent of that money go to farmers until the first of July next year – at the earliest.

This is not good enough. After years of Labor destroying confidence in the sheep
industry, they are more focused on employing more bureaucrats than assisting
farmers.

What does this tell us about the government’s attitude towards sheep farmers? Do they really care about supporting the regional families and rural communities which have fed and clothed Australia and the world for over a century?

Of course they don’t. This is an act of contempt towards farmers by this bad, ideologically driven Labor government.

We must not go quietly. We must reverse the ban on Australia’s live sheep trade. We must fight the government and we must win.

Along with Peter Dutton, myself and the entire Coalition will continue fighting for our hardworking farmers and rural communities every day in Canberra – but we need your help to save our industry.

TV host calls out Labor’s misinformation bill ‘farce’

Maybe there are moves afoot

Elon Musk, a close adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump, met with Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations on Monday in New York in a session that two Iranian officials described as a discussion of how to defuse tensions between Iran and the United States.

The Iranians said the meeting between Mr. Musk and Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani lasted more than an hour and was held at a secret location. The Iranians, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss policy publicly, described the meeting as “positive” and “good news.”
