Speaking of the unelected!
The BBC continues to obsess about Elon Musk, drawing attention to his participation in the next cabinet meeting while not holding a cabinet position.
At the same time I hear murmurings, probably about to grow louder, that George Soros is to be praised as a philanthropist! It’s significant that the left media (which is most of them) has remained stumm about the funding of campaigns for various state and city official positions, be they DAs or governors, by funds associated with George.
Nor did they point out the “unelected” status of Fauci & Co despite them being primary advisers to the Trump White House during the covid we had to have.
Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation performed well in the face of concerted gotcha questioning during the latest Newshour program on the BBC. He had to counter all manner of attacks on Trump and Musk, such as “Trump is behaving like a monarch with all those Executive Orders” – Obama still holds the record for the number of those. The attacks on Musk, who is doing a great job and is no threat to the USA, stand in stark contrast to the treatment of characters like Mayorkas who presided over an unprecedented influx of illegals, which has damaged the USA both financially and in terms of crimes committed.
Most of the Biden era appointments would have been easy to criticise, but no, the MSM wasn’t interested in doing that.
Didn’t the US Agency for International Development slip a few millions to Soros for his DA campaigns?
Soros is too cheap to use his own billions for corruption.

The case wasn’t actually about SA funnily enough but it’s what happens when women hold the levers of power. Emotions and virtue signalling trump logic and consistency.
For those of us without an Australian subscription, what is the case in question?
The judgment comes amid ongoing unease within the office of Director of Public Prosecutions Sally Dowling SC, which has come under pressure from a group of District Court judges accusing prosecutors of running sexual-assault cases that have no hope of securing a conviction.
Ms Dowling on Wednesday _revealed the results of a long-awaited audit into sexual assault prosecutions across the state, which found 17 of 327 matters that were reviewed were discontinued on evidentiary or discretionary grounds.
Eleven cases were found to have not complied with prosecution guidelines.
In a separate matter last year, Judge Colefax raised questions over the prospects of convicting solicitor Hassan Hallak for perverting the course of justice, after he was accused of making false representations in a statement he took from Uber delivery driver Sulaiman Shojaei.
When Mr Shojaei, who had accused the head of the Alameddine crime family and his cousin of stealing his phone, was interviewed by police, he “took issue” with parts of the statement filed by Mr Hallak on his behalf.
Mr Hallak was arrested, charged and the matter was committed to trial in April 2021.
His legal team filed a no-bill application prior to trial calling for the prosecution to drop the case, but the application was rejected by the director’s chambers and the matter proceeded.
In opening his case, the crown prosecutor described Mr Hallak as “a person of good character”.
He accepted that the crown could not rule out the “reasonable possibility” that Mr Shojaei had provided false information to Mr Hallak for the statement, which Mr Hallak had “faithfully” recorded.
Thanks F.

Yep. No matter how baseless the charges, the police and prosecutors pay no penalty out of their own pocket. Any compensation comes form the poor long-suffering taxpayer.

I thought Dutton’s response yesterday to the Labor smears was both measured and dignified.
But if the smears continue and it’s likely given Labor’s getting desperate, then perhaps the Liberals should throw some muck back. The richest person in parliament is not a Liberal nor is that person a National, rather his name is Andrew Charlton, the Labor member for the western Sydney seat of Parramatta, whose real domicile is a 20 million buck mansion in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, in Bellevue Hill to be precise.
Cassie, most Australians aren’t as stupid as Albo, Chalmers and Labor hope they are.
When Labor smears Dutton, it actually increases Dutton’s electoral appeal. Remember Labor got only 30% of the primary vote in 2022 so it wasn’t and isn’t a popular government.
Unlike Americans, Australians are becoming used to voting for the lesser of two evils.
You obviously weren’t around during the covid hysteria.

I’ve mentioned two members of my family have been the victim of aggravated burglaries one in regional Queensland, one in Melbourne.
Both times cars stolen and written off.
The Queensland one, one miscreant was caught and subject to ‘ restorative justice’ which my family refused to attend.
The second, the four offenders were caught red handed, don’t know their background, it would be a) or b), family was never informed what consequences they faced for robbing two extremely vulnerable women.
Fortunately neither family had a face to face with these scumbags.
These young men get more and more brazen, I was reading about a couple who live in Sackville St Kew waking up to young African males standing over their bed demanding the keys to their Porsches.
It doesn’t matter whether the cars are ancient Toyotas, ten year old Mazdas or new Porsches, the absolute entitlement of these men to terrorise people in their homes.
We have done this to ourselves, by inculcating Aboriginal people to permanent victimhood and entitlement and by importing cultures completely incompatible with our own and giving them the same victimhood and entitlement status.
The Queensland side I know all about being in a regional centre hotspot. The justice system (Na no justice, it a legal system) has failed us, the Police hobbled by race constraints and even Chrisifooli has done little but tinker round the edges for fear of judicial intransigence. Victoria when I’ve been there recently has a massive problem, the Sud’s are prone to extreme violence. Now we are seeing even in the fruits of this policy in Sydney where the cops wont even arrest people of certain backgrounds. What’s next no go zones?
Softly softly has caused this which is why I have no time for the “what do you want police to do, storm in there with batons drawn” argument. Has only emboldened them and their contempt for authority. The pendulum needs to swing back somewhat and that will ugly for a bit. Walk softly & carry a big stick…
What’s the solution? Well that’s another argument that involves the cycle of dependency/idle hands and solutions here that have been mildly successful have been boot camps with aboriginal staff and job placement activities. A few more trade related businesses up this way specialise in employing these offenders, some owners ex-offenders themselves. Also getting the offenders away from the cycle that has them there to begin with.
Another and it will cause some resistance in police/lawyers is to allow homeowners to defend themselves without having to face grilling by the state because they didn’t run away. Also extinguish compensation rights for criminals illegally on your property.
We in these areas are frustrated, sick of having to have padlocks on everything, security screens and deadbolts on all openings, something I saw little of in places like Victoria.
I’ll end by reiterating the genie is out of the bottle. Putting it back in is going to be difficult at the least. Personally I don’t think any politicians have the will. (End rant)

Update on the Granville Jihad protest…
But activists from Teachers and School Staff for Palestine – who waved Palestinian and Lebanese flags and led children on chants through loudhailers – declared they would return to the school at 9am to continue the protest.
So, it appears the protest is continuing today. Worth pointing out that a member of this radical, far-left teachers’ activist group is the wife of one of Pretty Boy Minns’ colleagues, the current member for Bankstown and Minister for Customer Service, Digital Government and Youth Justice (yes, you read that right), Jihad Dib. Her name is Erin Dib.
Ain’t multiculturalism grand!
The NSW government should close this school down
Correct, but it won’t..Dib’s wife is a member of this group.
I’ve been right about Minns from day one.
This is utterly outrageous, and any teachers/indoctrinators or staff involved should be sacked with no right of appeal.

Further to Granville, there are some excellent documentaries on the 1977 Granville Bridge collapse where 83 people died. One very good documentary was called ‘The Day of the Roses’, produced to mark the 20th anniversary and there was another excellent one on Fox a few years ago, to mark the 40th anniversary.
I write this because when you watch those documentaries and you see the now grainy footage of the terrible hours and days after the tragedy, you are confronted with a Granville in 1977 that bears zero resemblance to the Granville of 2025. Granville in 1977 was a white working class suburb, largely homogenous, with a few Asians. Following the collapse of the bridge, locals and nearby business owners rushed to help and pull survivors from the wreckage. Those locals were not middle eastern types, you don’t see any hijabs and so on.
The Granville documentaries highlight the best of this country, a country that has sadly now largely disappeared. Now we have a Granville where scum screech supremacist ‘Allahu Akbar’ and wave Pallie Nazi and Lebanese flags.
Dunno about others but I would happily swap the Granville of 2025 for the Granville of 1977. And if such thoughts make me ‘far-right’ then so be it, and I will wear that ‘far-right’ badge with pride!
Me too!
Me three!

The Oz:
Triple M has parted ways with presenter Marty Sheargold after furore over comments he made about Matildas
Joanne Williamson
12 hours ago. Updated 32 minutes ago
Marty Sheargold has been forced out of Triple M after a furious response to disparaging and misogynistic comments on the Matildas and women’s sport.
Triple M’s The Marty Sheargold Show was due to air its usual 3pm AEDT timeslot in NSW and Queensland on Wednesday, but was replaced by music.
The station and Sheargold released a statement late on Wednesday confirming he is leaving Triple M, effective immediately.
Sheargold had sparked the controversy during Monday’s program and podcast when discussing the Matildas’ two losses so far in the SheBelieves Cup in the US, where they are due to play their third game on Thursday.
“There’s something wrong with the Matildas,” Sheargold said on Monday’s show.
“They had that wonderful tournament out here where we all fell in love with them, even though they didn’t make the quarters.
“You know what they remind me of? Year 10 girls.
“All the infighting and all the friendship issues, ‘the coach hates me and I hate bloody training and Michelle’s being a bitch’.
“Now I’m sorry to undermine the whole sport, but that’s what I think of it so
you can stick it up your —e.”
The 53-year-old “sincerely apologised” in a statement released by the radio network.
“Any comedy, including mine, can miss the mark sometimes, and I can see why people may have taken offence to my comments regarding the Matildas. I sincerely apologise,” he said.
A spokesperson for Southern Cross Austereo, Triple M’s parent company said Sheargold’s comments “do not align with Triple M’s views and values, and Triple M remains steadfast in its strong support of all women’s and men’s sports.
“We are sorry for any offence caused.”
The comments invoked a furious response from Football Australia and other sporting organisations.
His Triple M colleague and champion Olympic swimmer Liesel Jones also reacted angrily.
“The comments are so hurtful against women’s sport that The Marty Sheargold Show shared,” Jones said.
“I’ve been quite upset all morning, and I was upset when I came in. I’ve been on and off the show all morning.”
The poor dear…
My comment at the Oz:
You are not allowed to criticise womens sports teams anymore?
Facts v emotion.
The bloke should not have been sacked but Triple M could have issued an invitation to the ‘outraged ex-sport celebs’ to argue their point on his show.
I agree with the assessment that the Matildas have been elevated way above their capabilities.
Accepted…surprisingly. 🙂
Stacks on now.
Your comment reflects my view. Woman’s soccer and Kerr have been flogged to the point of irritation now.
I vote for more lingerie football and less Lezzo ball. 😀
Only problem is that Marty apologised.
Yes.
Neva…EVA apologise.
“Sorry, not sorry.”
RD, I was going add ‘Sam Kerr hasn’t covered herself with glory in the last month or so either.’
Might have been a bridge too far, I think.
every time you criticise women’s sport a puppy dies somewhere
So, the Matilda’s can’t even beat a women’s team now? Even 15 year old boys can do that.
The little I heard of that clown he struck me as the smarmy, slimy backstabbing type. The bloke who’s all matey to your face, but the first to screw you over when you’re not there.
Good riddance, no matter what the reason.
The same sort of people whining about Sheargold’s comments are either silent or openly supportive of males in female sports.
Sincerely apologised my hairy arse. (H/T to ZK2A and others)
It was Sheargold’s pathetic afternoon try hard “humour” show on afternoon wireless 93.5 in central Vic that kept referring to the US President as “Donald Dump”.
The brain dead morons who kept listening to the show kept giggling away as they repeated it.
No sympathy for that maroon.
Show me the man, I’ll show you the crime.

A vaccine injured mother has had to undergo a dozen surgeries to replace her dying bones.
Doctors believe Brittany Burnette’a illness is linked to the Pfizer Covid vaccine.
Burnette suddenly developed ‘unbearable’ pain and was told she had arthritis.
She didn’t believe the doctor so another doctor ordered an MRI, which revealed her hip bones were literally rotting.
After having her hip replaced, she had more issues.
She had to undergo surgery on both shoulders and knees, one on her left foot, surgeries on her elbow, and she is scheduled to have another surgery on her right foot soon.
She told the DailyMail, ‘The pain is so debilitating. I have never felt so helpless in my entire life. I’ve always been trying to be the best provider I could be caring for other people.’
Oh good grief, more wasted money.

CDR proves that vaccines cause autism and a whole host of other severe conditions.

BREAKING: USAID workers will be escorted to their desks and given 15 minutes to gather their personal belongings from the USAID headquarters on Thursday and Friday.
The Prime Minister’s Office reportedly pressured US social media platform Gab to hand over identifying data on a user who posted allegedly offensive comments about Albanese, citing section 474.17 of the Commonwealth Criminal Code (use of a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence).
Gab declined to provide the information. Their CEO’s response suggested the commentary may have been offensive but was not menacing or harassment.
Impossible to post offensive comments. The creature is offensive in its own right.
Iirc this is why Solzhenitsyn was sent to the gulag.

use of a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence
Menace and harass are objectively identified. Evidence is black and white.
BUT offence is subjective. Tennis Albo simply felt offended – or worse, falsely claimed he felt that way. No concrete evidence.
This is a design feature of the legislation, allowing governments to target opponents on the most spurious of issues.
We are rapidly becoming a clone of Londonistan.
There is a reasonability test for offence, but in an increasingly tetchy environment one can already see the circle being drawn tighter.
Perhaps Dutton will reform the legislation.

It’s a shame that the only punishment they will face is to lose their cushy jobs. They belong in prison – and that’s from before the Covid hysteria.
One of the greatest articles I ever read was about how the WHO “calculated” the measles vaccine saved millions of lives.
They opened up a spreadsheet. Typed in a figure for the number of people previously dying of measles in Africa (which they had never counted or sampled), typed in the figure for the number of vaccines given (which was known) and then typed in another figure for the supposed efficacy of the vaccine (which was assumed to be 95+ per cent).
From there they “calculated” their measles vax program saved 20 million lives.
Even their own Chief Statistician Kenji Shibuya blasted them for such a horrific method but nobody listened and the figure was and still is trumpeted around the world as an established figure even though it was completely made up.

JUST IN: Eli Lilly announces $27 billion investment in the U.S.
The investments keep pouring in.
Only 5% of our energy was being delivered by wind power this morning across the five states of Qld, NSW, Vic, Tas and SA. at 8.30am. Solar made up 24%. But coal remains predominant at 58%.Gas 5% and hydro 8%. This mix is spread unevenly depending on which state you are looking at. SA has no coal because it blew up its last coal-fired plant some years ago because it was going “green” but the truth is it is being fueled by gas (71% today) or imports of coal powered electricity from Victoria’s brown coal more often than not. Even if you put in more wind turbines they wouldn’t be turning this morning and solar is down as it is pretty overcast. The reality is our eastern grid is cobbled together and if further coal is forced out of the system we may end up like Chile yesterday where the country had a total blackout and a state of emergency had to be declared. Yes that could happen here. Ref. Figures from the AEMO dashboard.
A few trillion in batteries that last ten years should fix it all. The Chinese navy must be pissing themselves laughing at Pretty Boy and Small Button Dutton.

I’m writing to let you know about a change coming to our opinion pages.
We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets. We’ll cover other topics too of course, but viewpoints opposing those pillars will be left to be published by others.
There was a time when a newspaper, especially one that was a local monopoly, might have seen it as a service to bring to the reader’s doorstep every morning a broad-based opinion section that sought to cover all views. Today, the internet does that job.
I am of America and for America, and proud to be so. Our country did not get here by being typical. And a big part of America’s success has been freedom in the economic realm and everywhere else. Freedom is ethical — it minimizes coercion — and practical — it drives creativity, invention, and prosperity.

I suggested to him that if the answer wasn’t “hell yes,” then it had to be “no.” After careful consideration, David decided to step away. This is a significant shift, it won’t be easy, and it will require 100% commitment — I respect his decision. We’ll be searching for a new Opinion Editor to own this new direction.

“What The Actual F**k”: WaPo Reporters Melt Down, Editor Quits After Jeff Bezos Makes Hard Pivot Towards “Personal Liberties & Free Markets” (27 Feb)
It’s interesting that Jeff Bezos is being red-pilled like this. It won’t save WaPo though, since righties will never read it and lefties will flounce off.
Bezos is a little slow. Elon got red pilled a few years ago
I think Bezos just realised that Trump is now in charge of the rocket launch licences.
Sniffing the breeze.
Looks like Shipley got a “Fit In or F*ck Off”.
Or maybe just a “F*ck Off”.
Shit, that will be making heads explode around the WaPo water cooler.
Bezos’ motive is the possible DOGE cancellation of US Postal Service cancellation of subsidised Amazon deliveries, and potentially the establishment by USPS of an Amazon competitor.
Imagine an Aussie equivalent of DOGE getting stuck into the Aboriginal industry!
Yeah. Imagine it.
The imagination is the only place it will happen.
If only!
Top Ender – as the former manager of the Aboriginals Benefit Account you might expect I have some views on this. Just remember there was years of work underpinning DOGE.
Or politicians expenses.
I was involved in an exercise there back in 1974. Some might remember the scandals around turtle and crocodile farms and Taiwanese fishing vessels.
Every file we looked at was a mess.
My favourite was a $460000 grant to a community for a sewerage system based on a one paragraph, two line submission.

I know a young bloke about half way through a mechanical/aerospace masters at UQ. Super bright. IQ must be 160 +.
He’s interning with AEMO, about to start. Should take him a couple of weeks to find out the whole thing is a scam.
No future for him in Australia then….
He can’t be that bright. I’d reckon everyone on this esteemed blog would know that. A monopoly is not a good place to learn.
The real test comes when they offer a scholarship in return for employment down the track.
AEMO is the only place offering internship unfortunately. Boeing, Raytheon etc just want qualified people who can do things.
We took him and girlfriend to lunch a week ago. Poor kid has had a fractured home life but is resilient and doing well. Girlfriend seems nice.
He’ll find out about AEMO and I’m sure find something else eventually before graduation.

Newman elder Peter Tinker among many living in squalor as Pilbara town grapples with accommodation crisis
Ben HarveyThe West Australian
Thu, 27 February 2025 2:00AM
Ben Harvey
What you are seeing here is a national embarrassment.
In the 70-something years that Peter Tinker has walked the red dirt near the Fortescue River, countless hundreds of billions have been made from digging up and selling off his homeland.
The iron ore-laden ranges of the East Pilbara have been, and still are, the nation’s cash registers.
The land has turned local millionaires into billionaires, bankrolled Australia’s public services for three generations and made shareholders around the world rich.
Few towns on earth can claim to have produced so much wealth over such a long period as Newman.
And in the middle of this modern-day El Dorado an exhausted old man lives in squalor while, across town, workers scramble to find a place to sleep, shelling out $200 for the privilege of being sardined into a donga for one night.
The cavernous iron ore mines that surround it are printing money but Newman is broken.
Sitting on his front porch in a part of town locals call East Timor, Mr Tinker runs a hand over his weathered face.
“It’s getting worse,” the Martu elder says quietly. “All the time getting worse.”
His house has been all-but destroyed by his extended family.
The intuitive respect for elders that kept the Martu together for hundreds of generations has been all-but snuffed out by grog.
Emu Export is killing a culture that survived tens of thousands of years of cyclones and bushfires.
“The parents just won’t look after the kids,” Mr Tinker says as stray dogs run through his legs and into the house.
“They won’t send them to school. They don’t care anymore.”
Cockroaches scurry over the food scraps and faeces that litter the floors.
The home’s electricity works intermittently and there is no hot water.
Believe it or not, his house is one of the better ones around him.
Boarded houses dot the streets. The plywood-covered windows are a stark and embarrassing reminder of BHP’s hopes of servicing its mines with a residential workforce.
Of the 1100 homes BHP owns in Newman, 130 are derelict.
A third of those are in East Timor.
The workers who refused to live in them because of the lawlessness retreated to fortified camps in the centre of town, sleeping behind sharpened steel bars.
Police, nurses and teachers followed them, retreating to the western or “safe” part of Newman.
With no middle-class to counterbalance social disorder, parts of East Timor descended into shambolic, drunken lawlessness.
The kids in the area are paying a high price for the disintegration of the community.
Instead of being taught how to count at school, six and seven-year-olds are in the park learning how to spray neon paint into a drink bottle and inhale the fumes for a cheap high.
They do that when they’re bored of sniffing petrol.
While BHP secured the empty houses properly, the State Government simply closed the doors. Within days those doors were kicked in and the home trashed.
The streets are dotted with empty blocks where homes were burnt to the ground by bored children.
A Department of Child Protection property that was once a safe house for at-risk kids looks like a cyclone hit it.
In fact, it fell victim to bored children.
A swimming pool half-filled with water was properly secured only when a minister was warned that it was a matter of time before a child’s body was found floating amongst the rubbish.
It wasn’t always this way. And it’s not representative of greater Newman, which sits as a green oasis amongst the red ranges of the Pilbara.
The town has huge amounts to offer — high-paying jobs, incredible sporting facilities, good pubs and strong schools.
But it’s been neglected.
The ruins of the town’s bowling club stand as a reminder of what life used to be like.
“The bowls club used to be the centre of social life in town,” long-time local Troy Patching says near the remains of the building in the centre of town.
“We had barefoot bowls, people had weddings there and company meetings were regular. We had a working restaurant and the bar was the place everyone wanted to go for a drink.”
A storm tore off the roof years ago and the plastic sheets lashed to rafters as a stop-gap didn’t cut it.
“We’re waiting to see where they end up when they get picked up by another storm,” Mr Patching says as he points at jagged pieces of tin hanging precariously from the roof.
The property is technically owned by the bowls club, not the Shire of East Newman, so nobody has the money to fix the building.
“The shire is in discussion with the community group involved in regard to future plans and opportunities to have the site activated again and to bring bowls and darts back to community,” the shire said in a statement.
Locals aren’t holding their breath. Neither are they confident that BHP will fix up the 130 empty houses they own any time soon.
Of the $40 million a year BHP spends on community programs, more than a quarter goes to Newman.
For a long time it’s been a rotten return on investment.
Funny, the West isn’t taking comments..
His house has been all-but destroyed by his extended family.
But not their problem!
It’s whiteys’ problem since they built the house in the first place.
Defund the lot of them and they will have to find work to survive. That would be life changing.
The Matildas seem to have one of the steepest player-to-Star Player ratios in the sporty showbiz game. Especially as only one of them- Ellie Carpenter- is genuinely dangerously hot.
And I can’t help but think, if they had more wins under their spanx, they’d be a bit more thick-skinned about some marginal barney-merchant trying to deliberately kick off a marginal barney.
Um, Wally, your Ellie is a pillow-biter.

Yes, Obama was a mere tool. About as smart as a smart dog.
Barack Obama is America’s Chris Minns: an electorally appealing face designed to hide the rabid communist subversion of the regime he got into power in 2008 and 2012.
The American left is now leaderless so it is madly searching for a new magic trickster like Obama to conjure up the electoral appeal it has lost through its wall-to-wall anti-Americanism.
Meanwhile, the communist regime running NSW dare not ditch Pretty Boy Minns as its front man as he gives them the respectability they need to continue their looting of the state treasury.
Perfectly described.
I wonder how Minns justifies it to himself.

When I read that bit about the disbursement, it had me stumped as to why it rang a bell. Then it struck me on the way back from the shops.
One night, returning from Coffs Harbour to Wilcannia, I saw well ahead, a pack of foxes feeding on a dead thing. As the Patrol got closer, they looked up but went back to feeding. As I closed up – at about 120km/hr, they looked up more frequently.
I ploughed into the mob and not one had run away – I was pulling bits of fox fur out of the radiator for a week. Then it struck me – they hadn’t run because not one of them wanted to be the first to leave the free feed.
The same behaviour is being displayed by the Democrats – with the Muskmobile bearing down on them, no one is going to be the first to leave the spoils.

Just want to highlight a tidbit from the White House Press Secretary yesterday:
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1894456811069292708#m
She’s talking about the agencies responding to Elon’s “what did you do last week” email.
Fast forward to 40s to get the relevant bit.
“The president defers to his cabinet secretaries who he’s obviously entrusted to pursue the guidance relative to their specific workforce. And for some of the agencies that you’ve seen who have said please don’t send these emails, it’s in their best interest for that specific agency and the president supports that.”
On the one hand, it’s understandable that the secretive TLAs don’t want to publish everything they worked on in a week to an unclassified destination.
Onnn the other hand it also looks like the excuse of national security could again be used to keep waste, fraud, and abuse ticking along in the deep state.
You have to wonder what else Elon expected to happen.
And if someone from the CIA responds with “worked on Operation Sleepy Weasel all week” how would Elon know if that was wasteful and how could he disprove it? There could be big savings to be made in the classified world and Elon won’t know about it.
Elon did say not to send anything classified.
On Monday performed duties as per the requirements of my superiors.On Tuesday (ditto)On Wednesday (ditto)On Thursday (ditto)On Friday (ditto)There, requirement for 5 x bullet points met, zero classified/sensitive information sent.
Correct.
Explicitly asked people not to include links or references to secret, sensitive or classified information.
Elon’s requirement was for a “reply” – they’re trying to root out ‘ghost’ staff, duplicate staff, and people who’ve died yet their paychecks (sic) continue to be cashed.
The gender idelogues keep making the same mistake. They believe that because most people of each sex exhibit typical behaviours somehow those behaviours (i.e. gender) are somehow indicative of sex. They are not. Sex is simply determined by what set of sexual organs you have. A man is a person born with male sexual organs and a woman is someone born with female sexual organs.
Discrimination occurs when, and only when, someone believes that all members of a group having some immutable characteristc have certain traits (often undesirable) in common. It is from that same source of dicriminatory thinking that trans ideology stems. They think that being a woman is made up of a certain lot of traits that all women have. In other words they think that being a women is performative. But of course women don’t all have the same traits.
And of course all of the faux justification in the world cannot cover up the fact that no-one actually knows what it feels like to be a man or a woman. A man who says that he feeels inside that he is a woman is only saying that he wants to do things that he has seen women do.
Outstanding, and, precisely on point.
I note that some idiot Governor in the US wants to refer to some people as “inseminated persons”. They seem to have lost sight of reality. A pregnant person is a woman. “Woman” you bampots.

Peter Jennings bell the cat on Blot the other night on the appearance of a lack of RAAF surveillance.
Heard bugger all from Hastie so far on this issue so where is he now? Government is still all over the shop on this. Time to stand up mate.
The RAAF had E-7’s enough to surveil Ukraine which has nothing to do with us.
Pathetic.
and enough P8s to ‘freedomly navigate’ the South China sea.
Hastie’s been all over it but not much media coverage.
The lack of media coverage is now prompting curious questions which is exactly what they didn’t want.
A Collins would not be able to follow anyone anyway. You would need an attack nuke boat to do that. a Diesel electric is like a trapdoor spider waiting for its prey to come to it.
Tony Burke puts focus on marginal gains as China threat hovers offshore
Mr Mocker
According to Home Affairs and Immigration Minister Tony Burke, a “terrible” thing is afoot in our immigration system. So terrible that I hesitate to broach it, because it is truly terrible.
To get an inkling of how terrible this is, think of the most terrible thing you can about our immigration system and then multiply it tenfold. This terrible situation in question, at least according to Burke, consists of a “huge backlog” in applications for Australian citizenship. Applicants have to wait a long time before their new status is conferred.
And when Burke says they have to wait a long time, he means a terribly long time. How long? Well, according to the Department of Home Affairs, 90 per cent of applications result in conferral of citizenship within six months of the approval date. No-one, aside from Burke that is, seems to have twigged this is absolutely appalling, dreadful, and terrible.
“The fact that there was such a backlog and people wanted to make the commitment and councils not holding enough ceremonies was holding people back,” he told Sky News last week. “That was a terrible situation.”
Perhaps not wanting to traumatise us, Burke did not elaborate on the terrible consequences that have resulted from applicants waiting an average of only 105 days before approval and conferral. We can only speculate. Were they throwing themselves in front of fast-moving trains? Weighing themselves down and jumping into the Parramatta River? Self-immolating outside government shopfronts?
Credit to Burke though, for he will personally rectify this terrible state of affairs. Overriding the councils, he has directed the holding of mass conferral ceremonies – 25 in all, comprising nearly 13,000 new citizens.
Not only that, Burke has also instructed his department to arrange these ceremonies to suit his calendar, thus ensuring he can preside. And to top it off, the scheduling is such all the new chums will be able to enrol to vote in time for this year’s new election.
Forget piddling distractions like Chinese warships conducting live-fire exercises off the east coast of Australia. This is the Albanese government’s number one priority.
Understandably, the thousands of new Australians who were conferred citizenship last weekend at Olympic Park in Homebush, Sydney, were delighted at receiving this honour. They will remember this day for the rest of their lives. As for Burke, who spoke at the ceremonies, he is very much hoping that come election day they will also remember the nice Labor minister with the cheesy smile who made it all happen.
Burke insists he is not exploiting this for political gain. Meanwhile the Coalition says his actions amount to “industrial scale seat stacking”. But Burke has his defenders. Just ask former ABC journalist and teal MP Zoe Daniel.
“I see no evidence to prove that,” she said last week when asked about the allegations. “Unfortunately this sounds like the usual Coalition dog-whistling on migration.”
That says a lot about the teals and their claims to be independent. For Daniel, it is a mere coincidence that Burke decided to super-size conferral ceremonies just a couple of months before an election that is predicted to result in minority government. And there is nothing suss in that the Sydney mayors who normally organise these ceremonies were blindsided by Burke’s claims of a ‘backlog’.
Continuing to take our lead from Daniel, we should not read anything into The Daily Telegraph’s revelation that most of those who became new citizens last weekend live in marginal Western Sydney seats (including Burke’s) so vital to Labor.
Likewise, we should not infer any shenanigans over the selective make-up of the dignitaries. Burke’s office invited multiple Labor MPs and candidates to these ceremonies to schmooze with the grateful participants. Conversely, Liberal senator Andrew Bragg was only given two days’ notice.
And according to independent and Fowler MP Dai Le, Burke’s office never invited her. If so, this was contrary to the protocol for these ceremonies. which is designed to ensure balance and non-partisanship. Burke claimed she had boycotted the occasion, a claim Le says is a lie. Funnily enough he did not forget his party’s candidate for Fowler, Tu Le, who was part of the Labor throng.
As for the sudden urgency for these ceremonies, remember Burke assumed his current portfolio in July last year. Logic would dictate the waiting period for citizenship ceremonies has blown out immensely since then, given his overnight impulse to hold them en masse. Right?
Except that it has not. As mentioned, currently 90 per cent of applications result in conferral of citizenship within six months of their approval. In August 2024, just one month after Burke was landed with the immigration ministry, that period was eight months. Yet he expects us to believe the waiting time is now a terrible situation – what, because it has fallen by 25 per cent?
But as per Daniel’s breezy dismissal, this is nothing untoward. There is no evidence whatsoever that Burke and his cronies were usurping this process to ingratiate themselves with their new constituents. And to think she was a journalist before she became an MP. As for Daniel’s accusation of “dog-whistling”, that’s rich coming from a Labor poodle.
Characteristically, Burke attempted to dismiss these accusations with forced nonchalance.
“I just say to the people who are complaining, have a bit of patriotism about this,” he said last week. “People standing up and saying, ‘I want to make a lifelong pledge of commitment to Australia’ is a good thing.”
There are many words that come to mind when I think of Burke. Patriotism is not one of them, particularly given his moral cowardice and weasel excuses for not initially condemning the October 7 attacks and his cravenness in not calling out the crowds in his electorate who took to the streets to celebrate the atrocities.
In fairness, he did show a bit of patriotism at the time. Less than a month after the attacks he was proudly championing Canterbury-Bankstown Council’s decision to fly the flag – that is, the Palestinian flag.
As for his explanations concerning the citizenship saga, it would be impolite of me to say Burke has repeatedly lied. I will simply observe, to use one of his favourite adjectives, that he has a terrible understanding of the truth.
He’s a liar; and a traitor.
Burke is so thick he even sets himself up.
“I just say to the people who are complaining, have a bit of patriotism about this,” he said last week.
Yes, the last refuge of the scoundrel.
Ah, Thomas Jefferson. He was my favorite American politician till Ronnie came along and now we have the greatest President ever. Whatever personal failings Donald may have are nothing compared to mine. I wish I had half the energy of them.
So much for the Teals claim to holding the government to account.
Think of the mental anguish muzzies have to go through so they don’t get thrown out, if ever that’s likely to happen anyway, for abusing our Jewish community. Woe is me. I’m a victim.

Where are the muzzies, or the chunks when you need them. I must say a big black guy going berserk with a hammer would even give me pause. Unless I had a 9mm.
Which airport is that and why wasn’t it on the news?
Because it was a big, black guy with a hammer.
Lots of Spanish writing and Iberia Airlines logos.
I’d at a guess say Spain though the airport design is similar Brisbane internally.

The counters are for Iberian airlines – unlikely to be an Australian airport.

Mid ’90s, one Saturday morning, I was walking down 3rd Ave on my own for some reason I’ve forgotten. A big Black dude was sauntering down the avenue going the other way, rhythmically swinging a hammer, and we locked eyes. Nothing happened, but it’s something I’ll never forget.
My favourite New York City memory was in January 1990 after I had arrived from Rio de Janeiro en route to London. I was walking along Fifth Avenue and passed a stunning blonde. A big black guy walking beside me turned to me at the next intersection and said: “Man, that was pure pussy!”

More Albotross romance to brighten your day…
“’Stick it in’, she whispered. Albo moved up the bed and pushed inside her. Jodie squeaked like wet rubber. She grabbed Albos love-handles and ground her hips against me, her eyes black saucers staring into mine as she hooked a yoga-leg onto Albos shoulder. We went through a medley of our favourite positions. When Jodie saw that Albo was about to shoot my blob of Lo-Cal genetics she turned onto her stomach, lifting her arse to get a hand to her clitoris and chase him to an orgasm. She made it just in time.
Pure quality is what I bring you, quality seldom seen outside $2 shops!

Oddly enough, Mole’s horrid prose goes with the hideous sight of portly Aussie flesh in the latest beach tartwear. Many…many pale wobbly bottoms…reminiscent of heads of cauliflower.

The Balinese being charming as usual. What struck me were the number of security checks being done on vehicles entering this enclave. I was told they’re still super cautious after the terrorist attack years ago.
Very few letterboxes here. The population is mostly Hindu with a sprinkling of animism, and it shows.
One of the good things about Bali and Indonesia is that the national government — unlike the Hamas sympathisers in Canberra — is red hot against terrorism because it’s bad for business. If you want to blow up stuff in Indonesia because of your muslim beliefs, then it’s Rule 303 for you!
Sadly, people we know were blown up in the 2nd Bali bombing in 2005 at Jimbaran Beach. All parents from our two local Catholic schools at Merewether, who were surfing, sailing and business friends and acquaintances of ours, and whose children were at school with ours.
The thing that was never made part of the news, was that Tony Abbott was also on holiday there at the time, was Health Minister in the Howard government, and was right on the scene to organise medical evacuations to Singapore and Australia for a couple of people who had been written off to death, but who survived.
A friend who was part of the Newcastle group, a local GP with surgical experience, was hands on with all that and triaged the medics that Abbott made to happen. That story has not been told.
Our daughter is friends with the wife of the high Hindu prince of Bali. He ascended the throne after his father’s death in 2018, and our daughter attended part of the funeral observances, which lasted nearly a month. We stayed with them a couple of years ago at one of their places at Sanur.
Enjoy it, Calli. We were thinking of a quick Balinese trip for winter, and you make it sound extremely appealing.
Except for the cauliflower bottoms, that is.

Sydney’s “Local Woman of the Year” is …
Come on, you can guess……
Well, of course Sydney’s “Local Woman of the Year” is a man. Women are so yesterday in this country.
NSW MP Alex Greenwich described ‘transgendered woman’ (which is woke speech for biological man identifying as a woman) Brianna Skinner as a “trail blazer” for winning the award.
Not really.
Men taking honours from women is as old as Bruce Jenner.
Jenner was famously voted Glamour Magazine’s “Woman of the Year” back in 2015.
And since then a locker room of men wanting to be women have cut a swath through female sporting events, beauty pageants and bathrooms.
In 2023 we had blokes representing both Portugal and the Netherlands in the Miss Universe contest. And everybody yawned. That’s how not trail blazing this year’s Local Woman of the Year is.
Blazed a trail in the sense of burning the women of NSW, maybe.
Alex Greenwich said Brianna had been recognised for raising “concerns about people in NSW being unable to change their gender on identification documents such as birth and marriage certificates”.
So the woman of the year is the man who was at the forefront of having men recognised as women.
Think about that.
All sponsored by ‘independent’ Alex Greenwich (the creep behind the 2019 abortion laws and now pushing for liberal euthanasia laws), a sinister charactered empowered by successive Liberal governments here in NSW.
Women are so shit blokes even win woman of the year awards now.
Lift your game XX chromosome holders.
have cut a swath
Surely that should be “swathe”? We don’t need phony Americanisms in Oz.
I think it’s most correct to say “swathed a gash”.
The alliance between gay men and lesbians has always been shaky.
As someone who was around that scene in the 70s and 80s (not lesbian) I can attest that there was a lot of tension there.
The gay men scene is divided roughly into three categories.
The first is those who don’t care about sexual politics, have male and female friends, and detest the radicals who claim to speak for them. Old Paddington quens, who vote Liberal. Also, suburban couples that attract no attention.
The second is the cohort who just want lots of hot sex. Some are looking for lasting relationships, some are not. Again, they are not interested in politics.
We have just described at least of 90% of gay men.
Finally, we get those who claim to be women.
I don’t mind if they do ‘womanish’ things, but they are not and will never be women,

Are we getting closer to the singularity? I listened to a podcast this morning and heard about an engineering genius who was able to make advanced chips (not the potato ones) with the help of AI and a 3D printer. He says he can get the cost down by 99%.
If this is the real McCoy it changes everything.
Was there a part about the size? Perhaps even looking at 3 nanometer chips would be damn near unheard of these days from my very limited ideas on chip architecture and size as opposed to cost.
They are about to commercially produce 2 nanometers

Blue Marble University Medical School offers the world’s only online M.D. Degree. In 2011, when Blue Marble University first opened its online medical degree program, in which a student could obtain an MD degree in three years, we were on the cutting edge of medical education.
…
Some people may criticize us that we have no clinical rotations for our MD program, and that our MD degree can only be used for non-clinical medical careers. But we believe that “non-clinical” medical careers are what 90% of health care is all about, and that therefore, learning about the medical arts is very useful. Some typical career paths for unlicensed physicians…medical students who chose not to complete the medical licensing exams nor to pursue clinical rotations… include:
Pharmaceutical Industry
Biomedical Research
Clinic and Hospital Management
Medical Device Research and Manufacturing
Health Insurance Industry
Corporate Medical Insurance Department
Writing and Consulting
Medical Laboratory Ownership
Medical Malpractice Claims Consultant
Operating Various Clinics Such as Cosmetic Clinics
Clinical Laboratories and Testing

The Dark Truth: This is Who REALLY Rules The UK – Ex-Prime Minister Liz Truss
In the video, former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss discusses her brief tenure and her perspectives on the political and structural issues facing the UK. The conversation highlights several key points: 1. **Democracy and Authority**: Truss argues that the UK has become less democratic, with increased power resting in unelected bodies like the judiciary and bureaucratic institutions. Decisions traditionally made by elected officials are now often made by these bodies, which she views as problematic. 2. **Immigration and Human Rights**: The discussion touches on immigration, particularly concerning Islamic influence and issues related to grooming gangs. Truss emphasizes the need to overhaul or repeal certain laws, such as the Human Rights Act, to better manage immigration and deport criminal offenders. 3. **Economic Stagnation and Policy**: Truss reflects on her economic priorities as Prime Minister, including tax cuts and fracking, aimed at revitalizing the economy. She felt undermined by a powerful economic establishment resistant to her plans. 4. **Blair’s Legacy and Government Structure**: Blair-era reforms are discussed, particularly those that empowered the judiciary and bureaucratic structures at the expense of political autonomy. Truss contends that reversing these changes is essential for meaningful reform. 5. **Ideological Influence**: Truss identifies a pervasive groupthink among elites, influenced by globalist and technocratic ideologies, which she believes are out of touch with the general population’s concerns. 6. **Personal Experience and Challenges**: Truss details the challenges she faced during her premiership, including being scapegoated for economic issues and realizing the limitations of power even as Prime Minister. 7. **Future of UK Politics**: She calls for significant systemic change and expresses hope for a future government willing to implement radical reforms, drawing inspiration from leaders like Trump and Milei. Overall, Truss advocates for profound changes to restore sovereignty and accountability within the UK government, addressing both structural and ideological barriers.
I think these summaries would benefit a lot by being two or three sentences only. And make it clear it’s a video.

Holy cow! I got the Soros Democracy Alliance Resistance Map! A RARE Democracy Alliance document given to their funders to show them who to contribute to. AND also, the Trump resistance started the mail-in ballots and drop boxes! Lastly these Trump resistance orgs are all non profits and many of them don’t seem to be following the rules. @PamBondi
This RARE DOCUMENT lists every org that was a part of the Trump resistance in the Soros Democracy Alliance as of July 2017!
This [100%] makes Soros, Obama, and Eisen the Resistance! Not just linkage, they are the resistance!
2017 was the year that the Democracy Alliance hired Archana Sahgal, a former Obama White House official, to help the new anti-Trump groups.
Here’s some of the summer 2017 Soros Democracy Alliance resistance, see photo for the remainder. And below this for why some are important:
– Obama’s OFA 501 c4
– Indivisible 501 c4
– MoveOn 501 c4
– Crew 501 c3
– United to protect democracy 501 c3
– Brennan center 501 c3
– ACLU 501 c4
– Planned Parenthood 501 c3
– Catalist 501 c3
*Non profit statuses from Influence Watch.
So Obama and his OFA was more than linked (Partnered with Indivisible) to the resistance, they WERE the resistance! Told you so! ( I also had other early evidence that showed he was part of Indivisible too.)
This also connects ALL 2020 election change efforts to the resistance also! For example, the Brennan Center handled a majority of 2020 election changes, including mail-in ballots and drop boxes. (See my past work.)
The Transition Integrity Project (Protect Democracy/United to Protect Democracy) is listed there too. Recall they are the ones who war gamed the election.
As for CREW, from 2016 to 2019, Norm Eisen served as chair of the board and co-counsel on litigation matters, including emoluments cases in New York and Maryland federal courts[4] (CREW v. Trump and D.C. and Maryland v. Trump,respectively).
Planned Parenthood is taxpayer funded. Hope my resistance dollars were spent well.
The ACLU also staffed the 2020 election as poll workers in at least Georgia. Imagine this, having the Trump resistance as poll workers! (See past work.)
MoveOn was and still is involved in the Trump resistance.
Indivisible which is currently active as the 2025 resistance, has also received funding from the tech entrepreneur Reid Hoffman, as well as foundations or coalitions tied to Democracy Alliance donors, including the San Francisco mortgage billionaire Herbert Sandler, the New York real estate heiress Patricia Bauman and the oil heiress Leah Hunt-Hendrix.
Since these are all non profits, I found a Forbes article that explains their status nicely:
Any of those listed that are a 501 c3, are not allowed to campaign against a candidate! The 501 c4’s can’t do it the majority of the time. (Indivisible, a 501 c4, was created strictly to resist Trump.)
This my friends is what we call evidence! Sources to follow!

Last night I watched the funeral of Shiri, Ariel and Kfir Bibas. I watched as a now thin and pale Yarden Bibas delivered a heartbreaking eulogy to honour his wife and two little boys. Before October 7 2023 Yarden was a very large man, now he’s a shadow of his former self………..that’s what happens when you’re tortured, starved and kept in a cage.
It is worth noting the following….Penny Pong said nothing about the murders of Shiri, Ariel and Kfir, Penny Pong said nothing about the outrageous Nazi display last week when the Bibas family corpses were handed over, Penny Pong said nothing when it was revealed that one of the bodies, supposedly of Shiri, was found not to be the body of Shiri.
I regard Penny Pong as human excrement, dung and filth, even a common kitchen German cockroach possesses more moral fibre and integrity than Pong. The woman is an obscenity, she is our Irma Grese.
The fact that this same Pong represented this country at the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz a few weeks ago is beyond disturbing. Nothing will ever cleanse this stain, I actually gasp for breath when I think of her in attendance. Her attendance was a big FU to to the millions of murdered Jews and to Jews alive now, be they in Israel or the diaspora. Vladimir Putin, who was not invited, had more right to attend that commemoration than the stinking excrement that is Pong.
We all know Pong’s tawdry political history, she’s a vicious and very nasty Labor apparatchik, with a long history of nasty and indimidatory behaviour. She was up to her neck in both the Higgins and Porter r*pe allegations and without a doubt she was also intimately involved in the targeted campaign against Nicole Flint back in early 2019. She gets away with it because the lazy good for nothing far-left MSM in this country are spineless toads.
I have no words left to describe this government, you’ve all heard them before but hear this………..Penny Pong, perhaps the most putrid individual ever to grace our parliament, is a Jew hater.
Yes Cassie, she is.
I regard Penny Pong as human excrement, dung and filth, even a common kitchen German cockroach possesses more moral fibre and integrity than Pong. The woman is an obscenity, she is our Irma Grese.
Don’t you hold back, now, Cassie, you tell us what you really think.
No perhaps about it.
There’s a lot of competition in the unflushed bowl of scum and villainy for the title of Top Log, but for all their mediocrity, Australians such as this wretched creature seem to make a decent go of it.

Why is Europe Going Mad?
The last few months have been very sad for me but today I received some wonderful news…..
I’m now a great-aunt!
I guess this is the cycle of life, old people die and new babies are born!
A time to die, a time to be born.
In some very over-crowded countries (like China) there is/was a saying that if the old don’t go the new can’t come.
Wonderful news.
I’m also a great aunt.
I’ve always told my nephews and nieces that I am the Greatest Aunt, ever! 😀 😀 😀
Cassie, you’ve joined the Great Aunt Club. Yay!
I am a great aunt to quite a few, some of whom are adults themselves now, but some babies and toddlers too.
Lovely to see some of them at recent birthday celebrations for my sister, a great-grandmother and also a great aunt, who is in an interesting stage of remission from mesothelioma. It has stopped growing, no reason, and she has come back to life mentally, from being vague and not quite with it, to opining on stuff as usual and being extremely acute about things medical, as is her training.
You might make 85 yet, I say to her as we discuss life and death at her 84th recently.
Noice, congrats
Surely you were already a great aunt – as in, not a good one, but a great one! 🙂
I stumbled upon an interesting fact today, which I must share! At first I thought I had fallen into the realms of conspiracy but after checking several websites, it turns out to be true…
The 4,500-year old Chinese symbol for God (?, “Shén”) contains three pictograms joined together into one:
The Chinese creation story, particularly the story of Pangu (??), describes the universe as starting in a formless, dark chaos: “The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep”). Then, light and order emerged as Pangu separated Yin (darkness) and Yang (light)
I’ll go you two more:
The Chinese Character for “Create” (?, “Zào”) is Mind-Blowing!The traditional character for “create” (?) seems to encode the Genesis account:
And:
The character for “big boat” (?, “Chuán”) contains:
This literally means “eight people on a boat”, which is exactly how many people were saved on Noah’s Ark
The Chinese word for “forbidden” is ? (Jìn), and look what it’s made of:
The character for “devil” (?, Mó) contains:
Believe me.. there’s heaps more!!!! :O
The Cat doesn’t like the Chinese characters so hasn’t pasted them properly but you can go to something like ChatGPT and ask yourself!
I’m gobsmacked.
Hi Gobsmacked.
No offence Lysander but, so what?
It’s the connection between Chinese religious history and Christianity.
Both seem to share common stories despite there being no contact between the two.
A bit like the odd volcano erupting and causing all kinds of mayhem in different societies that aren’t in contact but have similar stories that enable the eruption to be pinpointed in time and place.
I think it is fascinating, suggestive that all humans shared a similar cultural origin in our evolutionary past. Very very deep deep structures of thought and culture. Some might say that The Word was given then.
My physiotherapist friend on our recent Indian tour and I had a discussion about this. She supported Trump, and was a strong Christian, with decided views about evolution not explaining humans; I said if God is to exist, he must have guided evolution.
I hope I didn’t offend you, I said later. Goodness no, she said. We have to be able to discuss these things with each other, and disagree if we must.
Instead of getting all “we wuz robbed” about those Chinese live firings, we should imagine that they were being tracked at all times by the very stealthy Collins Class diesel-electrics.
After all, the old Oberon Class used to go into a lot of places you wouldn’t believe. Because they could.
How exactly could a diesel electric sub track a surface fleet? Maybe all six and they were already in front, but they would not keep up and make a racket trying to.
In war games the Swedish Gotland tracked and sank US carriers, 3 times. Modern passive sonar is incredible. Towed arrays can detect ships across hundreds if not thousands of ks but with limitations. I was stunned to learn this from Sub Brief(former 688i nuke sub sonar operator).
I understand the Chinee boats were in a general area, waiting for the cyclone up north to go away.
Which means the Aussie sub could sneak in on electrics, listen, and creep away again to recharge.
Sub brief has a good vid on the Oberon class. Very good at sneaking up to foreign shores. Collins class superior.

I do like how this administration is handling rants on social media.

Well, it kind of does if you are looking for a job and there are massive quotas assigned to a group which doesn’t include you or, as in this case, complete blockouts.
How would it go if I advertise a job that said no muzzies need apply.
Badly for you.
Not to mention merit too, how’s that working when close 50% of the gene pool excluded.

Top movie Rabz- Roy Scheider was good too. Awesomely awesome.
I haven’t seen the Conversation, Milt and it’s been many years since I saw the French Connection.
It’s aged very well Rabz- sorry that comment was to ‘bern.
The Conversation is very good. One of those films that went under the radar and wasn’t discovered for a few years.
The Polish parachute General, Sosabrowski, in “A Bridge Too Far.”
I’ve probably seen most of his films over the years, beginning with Bonnie & Clyde through the ’90s.
Never a bad performance that I remember.
And the camera liked him, despite his looks.
My oath. Great movie, I still watch it on occasion.
He was brilliant. I have been a big Gene fan since I was a kid and saw him in the Poseiden Adventure. But his best (cameo) role was the kindly blind beggar in Young Frankenstein.
To the monster lighting his thumb thinking it was a cigar:-
“Don’t inhale until the tip glows”.
Monster roars in pain and storms out
Blind beggar: “Wait! I was going to make espresso!”
In all seriousness his death scenario sounds tragic. Vale.
Best work – Little Bill in Unforgiven.
I liked him in The Conversation. A very good film.

Hmmm gotta be careful what you wish for.
I have a wifey who is one of the one in a billion historical natural beauties, with two daughters, so naturally she spends most of her time down the beach muttering about skimpies and blobbies. And endlessly chatting to people and their dogs. I am a Harmless Old Bloke, but I do have an uncannily magnetic dog, and so I spend most of my time down the beach chatting to clucky 30-year-olds about breeding, and beating away the cougars, and watching their jaws drop as the kids emerge from the surf to fearlessly snog dogs and/or try to drag “Dad” in- “oh. Are these your kids?” the ladies ask with a mixture of deflation and subtly repositioning their attack on my fidelity.
Bit after Christmas we were shooting the breeze about *rse-floss, tramp stamps, botox, boobjobs and such- a great opportunity to scan the visuals from behind my pharmacy sunnies- we both spot a figure, youngish, curvyish, in a navy blue one-piece- who, as someone like Hardy would say, would attract the gaze by the very act of deliberately not courting it.
“There you go, wifey of mine- classic packaging, all the more alluring because there’s nothing on show, and no ill-advised and ephemeral motifs to muck around with.”
“Hmmm. Yes, well somehow you’ve certainly caught her eye, so stop staring” sez wifey…
…and sure enough, I had- it was a French girl who had first picked grapes a decade ago- had a degree in international hospitality and spoke eighteen languages, wanted to see the world and so defied every stereotype about the frog work ego and ethic, rose to indespensible position with a labour hire company, got into boutique accommodation… I forget the rest she told me, potted history of her last ten years, she kinda knew what I was up to via bush telegraph, remembered the kids names and guessed their ages near enough, knew wifey’s name and nailed her with a frenchy triple-mwah and “Wallee has always told me so much about you!”
Wifey was of course, livid, but had nowhere to go because she was evidently such a good egg. I was of course in the doghouse because I can look at floss-strapped harlots and ruff up their bitches all day, but being hugged- against my will!- by a damp yet demure damsel was just too much.
Well played sir!
Attractive wives and daughters, Wally, are Gods revenge on you for being a man.
You will spend much of your life living in the fear of hoping that the girls won’t drag home something like what you were when you were young.
Thank you Cats for your good humour tonight, always a pleasure to feel part of it.
I have had a dreadful day yesterday, see end of the Monday thread for outline of why; terrible news re my fifteen year old grandson when I took him to the children’s hospital for what we thought was going to be a fairly routine appointment. It wasn’t. He needs spinal surgery for extremely serious rapidly advancing scoliosis. He has spent the last 24 hours crying in his room, but will attend school tomorrow. He is autistic, but very clever and coped with the docs and the sudden news well enough till he got home, when he lost it, quietly, and wanting to be alone..
I have spent the day on the internet chasing up info, and was able to offer his mum, who is currently undergoing some vicious chemo, some hope for a good outcome for the lad, but not without the surgery as well.
Good to see some cheer here.
Hard news for anyone, let alone a kid, to hear. Thinking of you.
Lizzie, your cross-eyed bear is rich in your care. Hug well.

Tony Burke in ‘hot water’ over allegations Dai Le was excluded from citizenship blitz
The Oz:
Tony Burke puts focus on marginal gains as China threat hovers offshore
The Mocker
7 hours ago
According to Home Affairs and Immigration Minister Tony Burke, a “terrible” thing is afoot in our immigration system. So terrible that I hesitate to broach it, because it is truly terrible.
To get an inkling of how terrible this is, think of the most terrible thing you can about our immigration system and then multiply it tenfold. This terrible situation in question, at least according to Burke, consists of a “huge backlog” in applications for Australian citizenship. Applicants have to wait a long time before their new status is conferred.
And when Burke says they have to wait a long time, he means a terribly long time. How long? Well, according to the Department of Home Affairs, 90 per cent of applications result in conferral of citizenship within six months of the approval date. No-one, aside from Burke that is, seems to have twigged this is absolutely appalling, dreadful, and terrible.
“The fact that there was such a backlog and people wanted to make the commitment and councils not holding enough ceremonies was holding people back,” he told Sky News last week. “That was a terrible situation.”
Perhaps not wanting to traumatise us, Burke did not elaborate on the terrible consequences that have resulted from applicants waiting an average of only 105 days before approval and conferral. We can only speculate. Were they throwing themselves in front of fast-moving trains? Weighing themselves down and jumping into the Parramatta River? Self-immolating outside government shopfronts?
Credit to Burke though, for he will personally rectify this terrible state of affairs. Overriding the councils, he has directed the holding of mass conferral ceremonies – 25 in all, comprising nearly 13,000 new citizens.
Not only that, Burke has also instructed his department to arrange these ceremonies to suit his calendar, thus ensuring he can preside. And to top it off, the scheduling is such all the new chums will be able to enrol to vote in time for this year’s new election.
Forget piddling distractions like Chinese warships conducting live-fire exercises off the east coast of Australia. This is the Albanese government’s number one priority.
Understandably, the thousands of new Australians who were conferred citizenship last weekend at Olympic Park in Homebush, Sydney, were delighted at receiving this honour. They will remember this day for the rest of their lives. As for Burke, who spoke at the ceremonies, he is very much hoping that come election day they will also remember the nice Labor minister with the cheesy smile who made it all happen.
Burke insists he is not exploiting this for political gain. Meanwhile the Coalition says his actions amount to “industrial scale seat stacking”. But Burke has his defenders. Just ask former ABC journalist and teal MP Zoe Daniel.
“I see no evidence to prove that,” she said last week when asked about the allegations. “Unfortunately this sounds like the usual Coalition dog-whistling on migration.”
That says a lot about the teals and their claims to be independent. For Daniel, it is a mere coincidence that Burke decided to super-size conferral ceremonies just a couple of months before an election that is predicted to result in minority government. And there is nothing suss in that the Sydney mayors who normally organise these ceremonies were blindsided by Burke’s claims of a ‘backlog’.
Continuing to take our lead from Daniel, we should not read anything into The Daily Telegraph’s revelation that most of those who became new citizens last weekend live in marginal Western Sydney seats (including Burke’s) so vital to Labor.
Likewise, we should not infer any shenanigans over the selective make-up of the dignitaries. Burke’s office invited multiple Labor MPs and candidates to these ceremonies to schmooze with the grateful participants. Conversely, Liberal senator Andrew Bragg was only given two days’ notice.
And according to independent and Fowler MP Dai Le, Burke’s office never invited her. If so, this was contrary to the protocol for these ceremonies. which is designed to ensure balance and non-partisanship. Burke claimed she had boycotted the occasion, a claim Le says is a lie. Funnily enough he did not forget his party’s candidate for Fowler, Tu Le, who was part of the Labor throng.
As for the sudden urgency for these ceremonies, remember Burke assumed his current portfolio in July last year. Logic would dictate the waiting period for citizenship ceremonies has blown out immensely since then, given his overnight impulse to hold them en masse. Right?
Except that it has not. As mentioned, currently 90 per cent of applications result in conferral of citizenship within six months of their approval. In August 2024, just one month after Burke was landed with the immigration ministry, that period was eight months. Yet he expects us to believe the waiting time is now a terrible situation – what, because it has fallen by 25 per cent?
But as per Daniel’s breezy dismissal, this is nothing untoward. There is no evidence whatsoever that Burke and his cronies were usurping this process to ingratiate themselves with their new constituents. And to think she was a journalist before she became an MP. As for Daniel’s accusation of “dog-whistling”, that’s rich coming from a Labor poodle.
Characteristically, Burke attempted to dismiss these accusations with forced nonchalance.
“I just say to the people who are complaining, have a bit of patriotism about this,” he said last week. “People standing up and saying, ‘I want to make a lifelong pledge of commitment to Australia’ is a good thing.”
There are many words that come to mind when I think of Burke. Patriotism is not one of them, particularly given his moral cowardice and weasel excuses for not initially condemning the October 7 attacks and his cravenness in not calling out the crowds in his electorate who took to the streets to celebrate the atrocities.
In fairness, he did show a bit of patriotism at the time. Less than a month after the attacks he was proudly championing Canterbury-Bankstown Council’s decision to fly the flag – that is, the Palestinian flag.
As for his explanations concerning the citizenship saga, it would be impolite of me to say Burke has repeatedly lied. I will simply observe, to use one of his favourite adjectives, that he has a terrible understanding of the truth.
Nailed Daniels:
As for Daniel’s accusation of “dog-whistling”, that’s rich coming from a Labor poodle.
Too many other good points to highlight.
I would have had to highlight the entire piece.
Remember the Teals were going to “hold the government to account.”
Or was that only the LNP?

I don’t get Trump’s focus on this deal. But I don’t really know the elements of the deal ( no pun) – like if in fact the US is supposed to access the resources at cost etc.
If it’s just a commercial transaction, then why bother with Ukraine when supply is risky or at least riskier than obtaining rare earths from Australia seeing we have most of them.
The issue isn’t that rare earths are terribly rare as it more to do with the refining process which is environmentally ugly.
I think you might find that titanium is of interest to the US with advent of robotics AI and military/ aerospace use. Ukraine have a fair bit of it. You are correct rare earths aren’t that rare. Trump also put forward that countries should invest what was it 5% of their GDP in defence…who knows might be a run on minerals.
I don’t get Trump’s focus on this deal.
It makes it less likely Putin will attack because Americans will be there making money.
Why would you bother with Straya when you know that on top of every mineral deposit there will be an endangered slug, a rainbow serpent and some invisible rock paintings?

eSafety Commissioner’s Actions Questioned
Malcolm RobertsThe Office of the eSafety Commissioner does commendable work in protecting children and adults from bullying and, most importantly, removing child abuse material. I praised the Office for this work.
However, in my opinion, the eSafety Commissioner has brought the office into disrepute with her personal vendetta against Twitter/X and her attempt to become the world internet police.
Last year, the Commissioner finalised investigations into 9,500 pieces of violent and extremist content. I asked what these were. The answer provided was
that the Commissioner was taking down material from anywhere in the world, detecting it in part because they actively searched for it, even without a complaint.
Given that the Commissioner is positioning herself as the world internet police at our expense, I asked what benefit removing the 9,500 pieces of material had for Australians.
The answer relied on one incident, and there was no proof it actually caused a terrorist incident. I asked why there was no explanation of what the other material was, such as a transparency register so we can see what material they are requiring to be taken down to check for political bias. The question was ignored.
I also asked what direct benefit her actions had in addressing terrorism and violent material. The Commissioner answered regarding child material, which I had already praised.
The Commissioner is avoiding scrutiny of her takedown notices for violent and extremist material, and I believe it is because they follow a political bias.
One Nation calls for the eSafety Commissioner to stand down.
This is just not going to happen. If you want to get rid of the Ultra-Karen then first win the federal election and then get rid of the commission. Like I said, not going to happen.
And repeal 18C.

?America ~ You Can Do Magic 1982 Extended Meow Mix
James Macpherson just described perfectly on Sky how Christianity and Islam are intrinsically and fundamentally incompatible. He was commenting on King Charles celebrating Ramadan which is completely against the religion which he swore to protect. Chiller is simply an idiot who wants to be loved by everyone.
It’s almost as though the crusades were a waste of time.
The King and even a succession of Archbishops of Canterbury abandoning Anglican Christianity may eventually result in a reunification with Rome. Who knows, the next Pope might extend a welcoming hand.
More likely a unification with Baghdad.
An interesting interview with David Betz, an academic(Professor of War, Kings College) who specialises in counter insurgency and civil war and has advised the UK military and Government.
He is non woke, logical and makes an interesting argument that Civil War in the UK is inevitable. His views align largely with the Catallaxy consensus and has relevance to Australia.
The title is ‘The Coming British Civil War’
Some points from the interview-
-The preconditions for civil conflict have been studied extensively and, in his specialised field agreed upon.
-All the conditions are present, factionalisation, downgrading the native population, loss of belief in the Government and institutions, economic decline, surveillance state etc plus he describes the current Starmer shitpile as ‘hapless’
-The UK military and security are fully aware of the issue but the Government isn’t.
-Over the last 20 years the Government has been alerted to the issue but has ignored the magnitude of the looming problem.
-When asked what the Government can do now to stop the disaster he advises that nothing can now be done, just prepare for when it breaks out.
-He expects it to start like the South American dirty wars.
It is a long interview (90 minutes) posted on YouTube from a strangely named podcast (Maiden Mother Matriach) by a conservative journalist Louise Perry.

Good vid but over an hour long. For those more disposed to reading 1st of his essays linked below:

Will see if I can find the 2nd.
Yes, it’s quite long but I found it had me interested more so than shorter and less reasoned videos.
I browsed that article which was quite good especially if you didn’t want to listen to the interview but the long interview is a little more up to date and has additional analysis.

Which King’s college? There’s one in Cambridge, one in London and two or three in Australia.
London.
In which Arky highlights some famous Fords.
Greased Lightning:
The hot rod from the Grease musical number.
Powered by a flathead V8.
Car is in Volo Auto Museum in Illinois.
A piece of 80s crap that in no way resembles either a 1950s hot rod or custom.
Nethertheless, a famous Ford.
But, flathead!
One item David Betz mentioned was ‘Feral Cities’ and that the military was interested in how to manage them.
Apparently it’s a term coined quite some time ago to describe cities that have no go areas, crumbling infrastructure and corrupt government.
There are quite a few UK, European cities that fit the bill.

We’ve just watched the first episode of Rogue Heroes Second Series, on SBS on Demand. It was playing in Britain when we were there at Christmas and we assiduously avoided catching bits of it then. Weekly here now.
Wild men at war, spearheading invasion into Sicily, as Special Raiding Service, but really still the SAS. Paddy in fine form once more.
Not history, as the intro insists … but close enough to it to be interesting.
