Could a pill provide the dementia-fighting benefits of exercise? A study in mice raises the possibility
No, because exercise does much more than just provide compounds from muscles, irisin being a prominent one. Exercise, with resistance exercise being an important component, will help but by how much? On the weekend I read trials on humans with simple interventions which stalled neurodegeneration. There’s no single approach but there is enough research out there now to construct interventions that should markedly decrease the risk of dementia. This type of research only took off this century and is still in development. It is promising.
You know, this election result appears to be more of a counter revolution to the decadence of the Western left.
With God’s help we will see this occurring in Europe.

RINOs Keep Senate As Thune Beats Rick Scott To Replace McConnell (14 Nov)

Interesting story from the Oz……….
Albany candidate ‘harassed, threatened’ after LGBTQI+ commentsPAUL GARVEY
12 hours ago
A West Australian Liberal candidate who made controversial comments linking pedophilia to the LGBTQI+ community has secured a restraining order against a woman behind repeated alleged threats and harassment of him and his family.
Thomas Brough, who is running for the seat of Albany in WA’s southwest, secured the court order on Monday after going to police with details of multiple instances of disturbing behaviour towards him by a fellow resident.
Dr Brough’s police statement details a series of incidents in which the woman entered the emergency department where he works and repeatedly hurled abuse at him. According to Dr Brough’s statement, the woman at one point allegedly said words to the effect of “I know where you live and I’m going to make sure you f..king die”. She also allegedly said, “you and your woman and kid out there, year I f..king know where you are”.
He claimed in the statement that a psychiatrist colleague who had interacted with the woman had told him that she had described her intent to inflict physical violence on him and that the psychiatrist believed the threats were credible.
Last week, after visiting the Albany Court House to collect a violence restraining order application, Dr Brough was in his car preparing to leave when the woman parked her car across the front of his vehicle and blocked him in.
According to Dr Brough’s statement, she stepped out of her car while holding a large glass jar that he feared could be used as a weapon. A passer-by stepped between the pair and another man called the police.
The woman had also posted a photo of Dr Brough’s driveway on social media, in which she said “I’m ya neighbour ya sly dog see ya at Nanarup real soon for a nice neighbourly how ya ‘garn we’re both farmers after all”.
Dr Brough’s statement also detailed vandalism to his car, which is covered in political branding, that occurred around the time of their emergency room incidents. The woman posted photographs of the vandalism on her Facebook page, under the caption “For my Gays and They’s”.
Dr Brough, who sits on the City of Albany council, led a successful push to sever Albany’s sister city relationship with the Chinese city of Linyi after arguing that the arrangement could be a vehicle for Chinese Communist Party’s influence and interference.
He has also been criticised over comments made at a council meeting in which he argued that the plus symbol in LGBTQI+ could include “people who identify as minor-attracted persons”.
Those comments, and Dr Brough’s support for a group seeking to have two sex education books removed from the Albany library, saw him labelled a “dickhead” in the WA parliament by Culture and Arts Minister David Templeman. The minister ultimately withdrew the comment.
Dr Brough and his wife, who is 36 weeks pregnant, are upgrading their home security in the wake of the incidents.
“She hasn’t been sleeping, she’s been hyper vigilant. It’s just been extremely unpleasant, and that’s not what you expect when your husband wants to have a crack at being a representative,” he told The Australian.
He said his appetite to pursue a political career had not been affected by the incidents. “It just reaffirms the fact that we need people of courage and conviction and character to participate in the public arena,” he said.
Liberal MP Rick Wilson, whose federal electorate of O’Connor includes Albany, said the threats towards Dr Brough were some of the most egregious he’d ever seen.
“When you’ve got a wife at home on a small block just out of town with a two-year-old toddler and a baby due in two weeks, and you’re at work at the hospital where you’re getting constantly harassed by this person who’s (allegedly) threatened to kill you, and has posted on Facebook a photo of his front driveway saying, ‘I know where you live’, it’s really concerning,” Mr Wilson said.
“And quite frankly the pile-on, which was led by Rebecca Stevens, the member for Albany, and jumped on by David Templeman, calling Tom Brough a dickhead and hoeing into him in the parliament, I don’t think it reflects well on them.
“People in senior roles need to take some responsibility for their words.”
WA Liberal leader Libby Mettam said Labor had used the cloak of parliamentary privilege to incite the harassment of Dr Brough.
“Political candidates of all stripes do an enormous service to our democracy when they choose to run for office, and they should be able to do that without needing a VRO,” she said.
“It is typical of Roger Cook’s WA that people are having their families threatened because they stand for election.”
Mr Templeman said no one should be harassing or attacking anyone for their beliefs.
“Violence and threats against anyone are not acceptable and I urge everyone in the Albany community to treat each other with respect and tolerance,” he said.
“As I said at the time, libraries should be safe spaces for all people, no matter their age, gender, race, religion, disability, cultural identity, sexuality, language, educational attainment, socio-economic status, political allegiance or social viewpoint.”
Good on Dr Brough, I hope he wins. Two points here…..firstly, the left constantly use threats, intimidation and violence against people who have opinions they don’t like. The left are rarely called out for it and they never incur any consequences.
Secondly, Dr Brough is 100% right about the ‘plus symbol in LGBTQI+’. As far as I am concerned it is an pointer, an interference to those who ‘identify as minor-attracted persons”, or in plain English to those people who are PEDOPHILES.
Couple of interesting MENA stories:
Report: Iran ‘Postpones’ 3rd Attack on Israel in Hope of Deal with Trump (13 Nov)
Saudi Royals Ask Trump to ‘Finish What You Started’ in Middle East (12 Nov)
Reagan sank half of the Iranian fleet in a day, and Trump is cut from similar cloth. But the carrot that comes with the stick is the Abraham Accords, and Saudi are keen for that process to continue it appears. And as Dover reported Saudi and Iran have been having meetings lately, so maybe that will also help cool things down.
Brough’s treatment is a classic rule from Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals.
“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
The woke progressive left just love to dish it out but they hate it when it’s thrown back, just like here when we saw Monty complaining about being called a ‘Nazi’ despite the fact that for years he’s come on here throwing the smear Nazi around with gay abandon.
I guess that’s why I’ve adopted the following Alinsky rule….
Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
Just one day for Remembrance of our fallen, but a whole week for trains awareness?
Oh, hang on…
As you were.
“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
Exactly what was done to me on Monday. They do it automatically, this playing of the man not the ball. Obsessive and childish and very dangerous to relationships.
The Beloved was watching Paul Murray last night and I caught a short segment on the cancelling of family members who may have different political opinions (this was in reference to that insane psychiatrist on the View recommending cutting off of Trump voters at Christmas).
What ever happened to changing the subject? And when they persist, changing the subject again and again? They have no interest in your views, just their own. Keeping the peace has always been difficult, this type of thing isn’t new. Like toddlers, they need diversion.
Which will work just fine until they pick up the meat cleaver.
Always have an escape plan. As Faustus would say, this is an Iron Law.

There’s been a fair bit written this week on the insanity that seems to’ve broken out on the Left after the election result. I read this one yesterday:
The Heartbreak of Trump Derangement Syndrome (12 Nov)
Couple all this with the data which suggests that half of young lefty women have been actually diagnosed with mental conditions of one sort or another. I fear that abandoning the family model outlined in the Bible is having a very bad effect on the mental health of women.
On another issue, I just heard Clennell telling me that “Rudd will survive”.
I don’t care about the little sh*t’s “survival”. This loose-lipped nincompoop is currently our representative to our most important ally. With whom he has Net Zero credibility. Why do the Australian people have to suffer this purely political appointment?
The guy has been reduced to going cap in hand to his old political enemies to give him entry into the new administration. Which means he hasn’t been doing his job, his duty to us.
Recall him and replace him with someone who can do the job.

Throwing money around to achieve deadlines doesn’t hurt them. If things get tight the top guys will move on but given Trump’s win the writing is on the wall for the big renewable boom.There will be fewer opportunities worldwide and finance will dry up.You would have to be blind Freddy (or Bowen and the Labor/Greens) not to see the end of the scam coming.

A group of climate change protesters have caused traffic chaos for thousands of Melbourne commuters this morning after they blocked off a key road.
A group of around 30 protesters linked to Extinction Rebellion stationed themselves on Punt Road and the CityLink overpass as they held up flags and large banners.
The protesters, who appeared mostly middle-aged, blocked multiple lanes leading to significant traffic delays of at least 20 to 30 minutes for anyone travelling from the St Kilda area toward the Eastern Freeway.
Punt Road, one of the city’s main thoroughfares, was backed up with traffic preventing drivers getting to work, with a few furious commuters getting out of their cars to confront the protesters.
One man ripped a banner away from the group near the Alexandra Avenue intersection and walked off with it, though the protesters simply help up another.
‘I understand the importance of the message, but there must be better ways to protest without angering people,’ one annoyed driver, heading to university for an 8.30am exam, told 7News.
One banner the group help up referred to the COP29 climate summit which is being held in Azerbaijan this week.
Other flags showed the Extinction Rebellion logo, a protest group notorious for their disruptive stunts.

FITTON: The Biden FBI Came to My Home! I WANT JUSTICE!
Judicial Watch
Summary: In the video titled “The Biden FBI Came to My Home! I WANT JUSTICE!” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton discusses his personal experiences with the FBI under the Biden administration. He expresses concern about what he perceives as a growing threat of government overreach and corruption, particularly following his four-hour interrogation by the FBI regarding Trump-related documents. Fitton argues that Judicial Watch plays a crucial role in uncovering government corruption and advocates for transparency, election integrity, parental rights in education, and the protection of free speech. — ### Key Points: #### Introduction: – Tom Fitton reports on the visit by the Biden FBI to his home with a subpoena. – He describes his experience of being interrogated for four hours about inquiries related to the 2020 election and alleged corruption. #### Government Accountability: – Judicial Watch is positioned as a watchdog that holds politicians accountable. – Highlights past accomplishments, like uncovering Hillary Clinton’s emails and exposing the Russia investigation as a hoax against Trump. #### Reflection on Political Corruption: – Lists key figures (Obama, Clinton, Biden, etc.) involved in the alleged “worst corruption scandal” in U.S. history. – Critiques the current administration for attempting to jail political opponents. #### The Left’s Agenda: – Argues that the Left is attacking various societal aspects: education, government transparency, courts, the right to life, sovereignty, and free speech. – Advocates for a pushback against these attacks to protect the rule of law and citizen rights. #### Personal Experience with FBI: – Details a traumatic visit from the FBI, likening the experience to media stunts. – Calls the Biden administration’s actions a political abuse of power. #### Judicial Watch’s Role: – Emphasizes the importance and effectiveness of Judicial Watch in fighting government corruption. – Cites successes in election integrity, aiding in the removal of millions of names from voter rolls. #### Election Integrity: – Expresses concern about voter fraud and the Left’s opposition to election security measures (e.g., voter ID). – Warns of the implications of foreign interference in U.S. elections. #### Call to Action: – Encourages Congress to hold corrupt officials accountable, including potential impeachment. – Urges citizens to stand up for their rights and the principles of democracy. #### Conclusion: – Warns of the serious state of the Republic and the need to confront Marxist influences in politics. – Concludes with a message of hope and resolve for the future of America.
they had received claims from 51 authors seeking to recover losses of between $5,000 and $8,000
There’s hundreds of would-be authors out there desperate to get published and companies like this make money from them. (One of my genuine publishers gets about 30-40 unsolicited manuscripts a week. They don’t even reply to them unless a stamped self-addressed envelope is inside in which case they get a slip of paper advising them thanks but no thanks)
Typically the author-to-be pays $5-10k to get “published”, which results in a run of a few hundred books. They sit in the author’s warehouse and don’t get sold much.
The more cunning “publishers” tell the author their books have sold and a new edition needs to be done – for another $4k – and so on.
The “royalties” paid are in fact a portion of the money the punter paid up front.
I recall reading a couple of months ago that some of the big banks had decided not to provide finance to fossil fuel projects even if the projects were financially viable. I have been hoping that someone might take them to court over this as I would have thought it constitutes a form of discriminatory behavior. The CBA was one of the named banks. Last night I received an offer from the CBA encouraging me as a client to swap my energy provider to a so-called green energy company with the hook of a big discount/bonus if I did so. It made my blood boil. The CBA should stick to its knitting and get out of politics as sooner or later it will be up to its neck in litigation again. My intention is to pull all my banking from the CBA as a consequence. Perhaps a journalist out there might investigate and expose what is clearly a marketing racket sopped up by the banks thinking they are virtual signaling.

Bwahaha, I bet that one stings the shower-dodgers!
I am glad to see Trump acting early on the chainsaw mechanisms re the bureaucracy, which is clearly bloated and Democrat-leaning.
This means that economic recovery can power away before the 2028 election. I’m bearing in mind what happened to Campbell Newman in Queensland went he went in hard and fast and made a lot of people unemployed with no major economic uplift for them to then get jobs in. Added to this of course is that many of the government teat-suckers were essentially unemployable outside their sheltered workshops.
When you cut you must also build. I think Trump and Vance are aware of this, although in his memoir Vance does place a lot of emphasis on the American dream being realised by ‘college degrees’. That depends what they are in, and how they can transfer to the private sector. A rework of university (aka College) education will also have to be part of Trump’s reforms. Success also depends on turning a significant number of youth away from College as the route to success and good jobs. We have that problem here too, with a lack of good trade skills and no job-readyness.

The footage shows Dr Rudd giving a lecture in Switzerland for the Asia Society in 2022.
“Never take a backwards step in saying we’re allies with the United States,” Dr Rudd told the audience.
“For all the American predisposition to episodic craziness … Look at Trump: how did that happen? That was a walk on the wild side for all of us.”
The lecture was delivered just nine months before Dr Rudd was appointed as Australia’s ambassador to America.

So the rat will sit peering through the dunny brush at the cobwebs accumulating on the White House hotline.
As for those who cry, “But we will suffer from this” I would say you grossly overestimate the influence an ambassador has over foreign governments.

Just for the record, here are two of our Nazi’s pearler predictions in the lead up to Tuesday November 5 2024…..
Back in June our Nazi insisted that….’Biden can govern’.
Two days before the November 5 election, our Nazi maintained that Harris was on track to win Iowa.

The pinnacle of marketing hype can be found at Apple product launches and airshows.
Aerospace companies rival politicians for “re-heated leftover repeat announcements” or “vapourware announcements”. If you added up all the airshow sales announcements as new, unique sales, Boeing would have sold about a trillion jets by now.
“Inked deals” at airshows have a habit of not materialising as firm orders.
Really hold it up to the light and take a good look at it if they don’t disclose who the “customer” is, citing “National Security” or “commercial-in-confidence”.
Good news from the Netherlands?

Thanks for the UN report, Dover, but I stopped reading it when I got to these sorts of comments.
UN projections is okay with you, right?
2016, yep, that one election my prediction was wrong. For the next eight years of US elections, I was correct about everything and you lot were dead wrong, every time. You were particularly wrong about 2020, and you were also demonstrably wrong about The Steal, which never happened.
I got 2024 wrong as well. It appears there was a residual groundswell of disappointment over how Biden handled the aftermath of COVID, specifically inflation caused by supply chain problems. This has been the case across every single Western democracy, putting every incumbent at the time out of office (Canada is next). Harris did the least worst of these leaders both in ameliorating the effects of the inflation spike and in minimising the swing against her government, but the inexorable effect was still enough to put her out of office.
The Biden/Harris economic strategy was based on the IRA to restart manufacturing, embracing fracking to build energy independence, and raising wages for the lower classes. These were all wildly successful to the extent that Congress allowed them to be, watered down as they were. However, the middle classes got left behind somewhat, as they tend to do during times of economic upheaval, and that was a cardinal sin for politicians to ignore.
Harris would have been well-served to take a leaf out of John Howard’s playbook. What the middle classes in America were screaming for was some Howard-style welfare to ease cost of living pressures. Cheques with her name on them, just like Trump did during COVID, would have been advisable.
It’s all very well to say that in retrospect, of course, and it would have been very hard to get that through Congress. Running against the Republican Congress for being obstructionist against the Democratic agenda and hurting their constituents as a consequence would have given Harris much more lucrative areas. Sadly, there were too many veteran centrist losers in her campaign.
Trump didn’t have anywhere near as big a victory as Nixon did for his second term. Let us see if his administration can last as long as Nixon’s did.

An unpopular position for me to take, but Tulsi is a Trojan Horse.
Her relaxed, overwhelming facial stunning-ness made it easy for someone with a XY genotype to keep watching her YT videos, both pre and post-defection from the Dems.
What became obvious was how polished and consistent the delivery and content of her messaging both are.
Yes.. a bit too polished and consistent, from someone who’s not trying to avoid all-too-close scrutiny.
So, yes, I have also suspected guile that goes beyond that which is endemic to female-ness.
As with my pessimistic Election prediction, I’m also hoping to be utterly, totally wrong here.

In the second series (?) she was getting dementia and he was pondering whether she could handle the lock gates by herself – he was steering the boat through and that was their previous allocation of skills. But she managed it OK. From what I hear they gave the series away later.
The problem for monty is that his descriptions of Trump’s Cabinet picks could have also been used for Biden’s Cabinet. Maximalist neocon warhawks (Nuland), lightweights (Blinken), nobodies (Buttigeg), same person that didn’t get it done last time (Burns), and so on.

Ok witches are stressed atm, I can understand that, since they’ve been casting spells on Trump every new moon for like forever and it obviously hasn’t worked. So it’s understandable that they’re feeling stressed right now.

Not at the moment but looking at them.
I feel for example, that a joint leadership of Musk and the other guy is wrong.
There is a reason for a sole CEO for private companies and a chain of command in the military.
I know of the saying ‘if you want something done ask a busy man’ but Musk has many interest that may not fit in with Trump’s policy in the long run.
Use him as a private advisor for sure, he is one of the brightest man of our times, but I wouldn’t take all his advice.
His defense secretary I like.
Give it time and we shall see, the senate leadership decision was a crucial one, may decide his success or lack of it in his term. Is he strong enough?
Never underestimate the uniparty, they have been around a long time and the tentacles are long reaching.
I am not bright enough or know enough to make predictions, specially about the future, just go on feelz.
Quite a lot even with everything being equal. At a stand still rate this would mean (approximate calculations) that the Chinese growth rate for industrial production would have to grow at almost 8% per year compounded over and above the rest of the world for 6 years.That’s assuming the rest of the world is at a stand still. If it’s not it has to be higher.
What’s that rate up against?

Mr Rudd has come under intense scrutiny over his comments about President-elect Donald Trump including calling the US leader a “traitor to the West” and “village idiot”.
“To have an ambassador who cannot have that diplomatic relationship with the president of the day – it is concerning,” Ms Le told Sky News Australia.

What I would like to see:
Kevin,
We have the embassy surrounded!
Come out with your hands up and your mouth shut and you want get hurt.
OK, so how does that wash out re China constituting 45% of the world’s industrial production by 2030 (its now about 32%), vs 11% for US (about 16% now)?
I like your thinking!

I didn’t look at the US ( I just looked at China). If US current ind. prod share is 16% and falls to 11% in 5 years it would mean the fall would be the annual compounded rate between the difference of 16% to 11%. That would be an annual compound drop of 7.75% for the US share of global Ind prod.
It’s been about flat for a long time.
Chucke! Missed one!
*pokes out tongue*
Annual growth rate of global manufacturing is around 2.5%. I can’t find global Industrial production numbers, but manufacturing is a good enough marker.
If that rate holds over the next 5 years, China would need to grow its own Ind prod at around 10% annually in order to reach 45% of the global share. I don’t think they can.

The thing you’re not telling me, JC, is what China’s share of global industrial production would be if the figure of 4.5% growth continues to 2030.
I suspect there are a large number of parasites in the US and around the world looking on nervously at Musk and Vivek plans.
Summary: In this video, Dr. John Campbell discusses a peer-reviewed paper published in the British Medical Journal concerning excess mortality in Western countries following the COVID-19 pandemic from January 2020 to December 2022. The paper, derived from a reputable data source, highlights that excess mortality rates persist across many nations in the Western World despite vaccination efforts and public health measures. Dr. Campbell emphasizes the need for a thorough investigation into the causes of this excess mortality, expresses concerns about vaccine safety, and calls for more transparency regarding clinical trial data. He stresses the importance of understanding underlying factors contributing to the high rates of deaths that are not directly attributable to COVID-19. ### Key Points: #### Introduction – The video discusses a peer-reviewed paper on excess mortality associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. – The source of data is “Our World in Data,” recognized as a reputable resource. #### Paper Overview – The study looks at excess mortality in the Western World, covering January 2020 to December 2022. – Excess mortality is defined as the difference between expected and actual deaths. – A statistical model (Carlinsky and Coibart 2021) is employed to analyze data from 2015-2019 with seasonal adjustments. #### Findings – From 2020 to 2022, total deaths in 47 countries were reported to be significantly higher than expected. – Excess mortality rates were documented in 87-89% of countries studied. – Highest excess mortality observed in 2021 at 13.8%, with continued high rates in 2022. #### Conclusions – Excess mortality has remained high over three consecutive years despite vaccination and containment measures. – Calls for government and policymakers to investigate the causes of this sustained excess mortality. #### Concerns Raised – The paper notes the underreporting of vaccine-related adverse events, including deaths post-vaccination. – Differing opinions in the medical community about the potential harm of mRNA vaccines. – French studies that categorize mRNA vaccines as gene therapies requiring long-term monitoring. #### Transparency and Data Sharing – There is frustration over the lack of public data regarding vaccine trials and adverse events. – The expectation of forthcoming data from the U.S. could clarify the associations between vaccine rollouts and mortality. – Pathology studies and autopsies are underutilized in confirming causes of excess deaths. #### Authors’ Credentials – The authors of the paper are well-published and recognized in their fields, indicating the study’s credibility. #### Expression of Concern – An expression of concern has been raised about the paper’s conclusions and implications. – Dr. Campbell argues that the concerns do not reflect on the quality of the study as it focuses on trends, not direct causality. #### Closing Remarks – Encouragement for viewers to look at the original paper for their interpretation. – Ends with a reflection on remembrance and the role of healthcare workers throughout history. The video concludes by prompting viewers to consider the crucial need for evidence-based discussions surrounding public health policies, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Select Committee inquiry isn’t designed to shed any light on the use of nuclear energy in Australia. It has one purpose only – to counter Dutton’s SMR strategy in time for the next election.
In that regard it’s a useful pointer to election timing: the Committee is due to report by April 30 2025.
Dan Dan the Air Pistol Man will be under pressure to wrap up and do the necessary without delay. With the Christmas hols looming, expect about month of inquiry into the entire nuclear cycle, conducted by peanuts.
This insulting bollix is why Australia is in the shit.
JC, how is the little one going?
So its share will fall below 16% as China’s increases.
I didn’t think I needed to because its obvious.
You realize that if China’s growth rate kept a 4.5% growth rate for 5 years and the world stood still, it wouldn’t achieve the nonsense share Arnie Bertrand was suggesting (45% share). As I told you earlier, China needs a rate of around 8% to achieve Arnie’s 45% global share with the world not growing.
Dover, Arnie is a bald, boneheaded Frog, take him off your twitter list and stop reading the idiot. Do it for your own sake.

Good Stuff. All the best.
It would under those theoretical parameters. But China isn’t going to grow production at 10% annually, but there’s always hope, right? 🙂
Lizzo is unavailable, Zippy. 😀
So you’re not going to give me a number somewhere between 32% and 45%. I’ll hazard a guess its going to be roughly 40% of global industrial production by 2030.
No, I’m going to give you more.
JC is coping here. Even on conservative projections, China is going to be three times the size of US in terms of industrial production.
No more stats for the night, Dover.
Global growth rate of 2.5% over 5 years.
China’s growth rate of 4.5% over same period.
China’s current share 31%.
Where would is rise to.
China’s share would be approx 35%.
Dover, you’re not convincing anyone with your ‘cope.’ The point of the entire discussion was what it would take for China to achieve a global share of industrial production of 45% by 2030, up from the current 31%. It would require a compound growth rate of approximately 10%. This could assume the US rate remains flat, causing its global share to fall while the rest of the world grows at 2.5%.
It’s not about a “cope”, it’s working out if the bald Frog is making a silly prediction using UN numbers. He appears to be like most things you post that he’s saying.
Bear, for the past four years, I maintained that folks needed to wait until the 24 election to see if the US was headed into the toilet.
The US fcks up like any other country, but its ability to correct is amazing.
Very true to say nothing of God’s hand on America — I listened to a podcast on Socrates in the City (Eric Metaxas) called God’s Hand on America where a fellow by the name of Michael Medved talked about many instances in the history of the US where diverse events occurred to advantage the US in ways that are simply astonishing.

Thank you, db, for once again confirming you have NFI.
When all the CA votes are counted, the total vote count will be roughly similar to 2020. Harris lost mainly due to ticket splitting: a significant number of Democrats put up a protest signal against the presidency but continued to vote blue down the ticket. This is why the Democrats didn’t get blown out in Senate or House.
Anyone still pushing that fake line based on early vote totals is only underlining their cluelessness about American politics.
It’s not even Arnaud’s prediction. The main point of the tweet though was the change in the ratio between China and the US. You want to focus on the 45% because the change in the ratio is devastating.
Apparently Australia has now recognised a “Palestinian” state.
huh huh. He’s quoting those imbeciles at the UN because it fits his bias.
His comment was entirely based on the prediction that China would reach 45%.
Here, I’ll post it to help you recall what you posted.
Along with the higher income world.
Nope, I focused on the Chinese 2030 stat because everything flows from this silly prediction. It’s unrealistic bilge.

NT corruption watchdog rules racist cops should not be investigatedStephen Rice and Liam Mendes
8 minutes ago
In a bombshell report, the NT corruption watchdog has found that NT police who engaged in shocking racist mock awards should not be further investigated and that in any case it does not have the resources to do so, ruling that any racist conduct was “historical”.
There was “no admissible evidence” of any conduct of the five named police officers which warranted any further investigation of any potential charge against them, NT Independent Commissioner Against Corruption delegate Patricia Kelly SC ruled in a report released on Thursday.
ICAC launched its investigation into racism within the force’s elite Territory Response Group after former police officer Zachary Rolfe alleged at the inquest for Kumanjayi Walker in February that the TRG unit created an in-house “Coon of the year” award for members who “exhibited the most coon-like behaviour”, with one award’s background the Aboriginal flag.
All five of the TRG members swore in statutory declarations to the inquest that the “Nugedah” award was simply given to the officer who had “acted in an unhygienic manner”, but claimed they had “never experienced any racism” and the awards were not racist.
However, The Australian revealed shocking racist language and imagery used in the awards, with one certificate from 2007 featuring the words “For the most COON Like BBQ ever!!”.
The letters were in red, yellow and black – the colours of the Aboriginal flag. It was called the SHIT BBQ Award and had a picture of an NT police officer with three Indigenous men.
One award, titled 2007 Noogadah Award, is a photograph of a man – understood to be a police photo of a deceased Indigenous Australian – with images of six cans of Victoria Bitter beer Photoshopped around the body.
“[name redacted], this is for expressing your utmost level of Aboriginality while being an elite member of the TRS Man your (sic) hard !!!” the award reads.
Then-NT ICAC Commissioner Michael Riches said the evidence supported allegations that the awards were “racist towards First Nations people”.
He promised that police officers who came forward with truthful information to his investigation would not be the subject of an adverse finding or be referred to NT Police for disciplinary action.
Extraordinarily, Mr Riches called in the police to help investigate, citing a lack of resources to conduct its own investigation independently due to inadequate funding.
When Commissioner Riches left ICAC following accusations of “inappropriate behaviour” made by his staff, Ms Kelly was appointed to continue the investigation.
I see the Chief Executive Officer of the Worldwide Association of Losers and Wrongologists has finally emerged from his week of cellar wall reflection.
As expected his error ridden summary of Trump appointments, lacking any intellectual rigour* whatsoever, has ensured the stellar rise of said individuals to legend status within the first 12 months of the new Trump administration.
Following this triumphant return to zero gravity relevance, he re-emerges from the bunker to claim he has only been wrong once in the last eight years…in 2016. He closes this tear drenched missive with the added admission he was wrong in 2024 as well thereby demonstrating** his weak grasp of Grade One arithmetic.
His brilliant talent of misinterpreting, misunderstanding, and miscalculating the facts in front of him demonstrates a terminal inability to do research or draw effective conclusions from the available evidence. A dedicated commitment to partisanship and point scoring overwhelms any opportunity for nuance or balance. First principles matter not to this self declared hero of the MAGA resistance.
Despite his extrordinary talents, his position as CEO is rapidly coming into question*** and we await the inauguration of his nemesis with interest. He has a lot of competition for his current position from the Sobby Screaming Simpletons of Social Media currently melting down across the globe. It remains to be seen if he possesses the rat cunning and ruthlessness required to continue in the role.

The government reportedly suspects market manipulation favoring Trump.
Polymarket, a transparent prediction market charging no fees, denies any wrongdoing.

Bolta has TDS; he ranted about Trump’s appointments especially Gaetz, Tulsi and Pete Hegseth; he referred to Hegseth’s intention to eradicate woke culture from the forces and said Hegseth had no combat experience. Fortunately he then interviewed General Keane who set him straight about Hegseth. Keane said Hegseth’s intention to eradicate DEI from the forces was commendable and that Keane would volunteer his services since he was asked by Trump in his first term to be defence secretary. Keane also mentioned that Hegseth had extensive combat experience.
Then ironically he interviewed Haley Mary from the Jezebels who has been cancelled for wearing a MAGA hat and was adamant that woke culture must be destroyed.
Overshadowing all of the Republicans’ achievements is the shadow of putrid McConnel who has moved to a higher gear of RINO hate. There is no doubt that he and his Bush/McCain/Romney cronies in the Senate will overturn Trump’s nominations, or delay them endlessly.

Earlier I had read in the Oz about today’s utterly disgraceful, despicable, putrid and shameful decision by this Jew hating far-left government, and I thought of the words Pauline Hanson said last week on the Bolt Report. With tears streaming down her face, Pauline rightly said that this country is no longer the country she grew up in.
Pauline is 100% correct. More sinisterly, I don’t believe this country is safe for Jews anymore, I suspect it will be all downhill from here. As Pauline said and I agree with, this country is not the country I grew up in nor is it the country my parents or my grandparents grew up in. It is fast becoming unrecognisable. Sitting down tonight, sipping my grenache (Hardy’s Tintara), I can see very clearly my grandfather’s face and I can see him weeping. My grandfather’s loves were his wife, his children (his sons, including my father, gave him chronic ulcers), his kelpie dogs, history (he loved anything to do with Captain James Cook) and the life and legacy of Sir John Monash. On Saturday afternoons, sitting in the family home in the Shire, after a long lunch, he would sit, like Sandy Stone, and regale the other adults with stories of Monash, Cook, World War I and World War II. As a little girl I would sit and listen. I remember the other elderly aunts and uncles, all of whom remembered World War I and World War II, all who looked about 150 years old, and who would all sit nodding whilst sipping their sherry, beer or tea.
This country is no longer the country that breathed life into Sir John Monash (who King George V knighted on the battlefield), of Esther Abrahams, of Isaac Isaacs, of Zelman Cohen, of Lionel Samson, of Barny Levy, of Mo Rene, of Emanuel Solomon (who helped Mary Mackillop) and of countless other Jews who, since 1788, have given to this country. Because you see, unlike the ‘group’ this disgraceful government panders to, Jews have never been leaners, rather they have always been lifters.
Trying to look on the bright side of things, I am more hopeful as we have a POTUS who actually loves Jews and Israel. Apart from the fact that half his family is Jewish, his daughter Ivanka, married to Jared, is an Orthodox Jew and he has Jewish grandchildren. America is so lucky to have President Trump. I wish we had someone with just a skerrick of his decency.
Myer Christmas window tradition cancelled over protest threatBy Cassandra MorganNovember 14, 2024 — 8.03pm
Myer’s annual Christmas window unveiling has been scrapped after pro-Palestine protesters planned to disrupt the event, saying “there is no joy in genocide”.
The unveiling of the annual Bourke Street display was expected to happen on Sunday in front of children and their families in Melbourne’s CBD.
Myer confirmed on Thursday the event had been cancelled as a result of the threat.
“In light of recent developments and to ensure the wellbeing and safety of customers and team members, we will no longer hold an event on Bourke Street Mall for the unveiling of our Christmas windows,” a Myer spokesperson said.
“Myer’s Christmas windows have long symbolised joy and community, and we remain committed to providing a safe and positive experience for all visitors.”
The windows would still open from Sunday and remain open until January 5, the spokesperson said.
The retailer’s decision came after protesters planned to disrupt the event, with organisers saying on social media: “Myer would like us to ‘share the joy’ this Christmas, but there is no joy in genocide.”
The protesters, who are calling for a free Palestine, planned to meet at the State Library with placards, banners and noisemakers, before moving on to Bourke Street to interrupt the Myer Christmas window unveiling.
