  • Daniel Andrews may be the most clueless political leader in Australian history

    There really is no getting away from how dumb Daniel Andrews is, with this the latest: Dan Andrews rips into Scott Morrison as the Prime Minister calls for end to hated Covid isolation rules: ‘I’m in the business of taking advice from the experts’. Everyone in politics has “experts” to draw upon. We elect our leaders…

  • In case you have been wondering about Novavax

    I have been looking everywhere for a medical assessment of Novavax which is the vaxxine that is more traditional and does not rely on mRNA molecules to produce whatever effects it supposedly produces.

  • Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?

    Shame Henry II had no one to rephrase and explain what the king had meant. Although, as it happens, the American President meant every word of it even if he was supposed to keep it a secret. As discussed here. The President of the United States, Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., who is 79 years old and…

  • Mad, bad and dangerous to vote for

    Came across two very similar articles on the net with almost identical titles and with sentiments very close to my own. First this: “We Live in a Time of Utter Madness and We’re Ruled by Lawless Monsters”. If you would like to see who was saying what, please go to the link. And then there was…

  • The “nature of the response would depend on the nature of the use”

    These things do escalate. Where does this end up? Biden says U.S. would ‘respond’ to Russia if Putin uses chemical or biological weapons.  US President Joe Biden says NATO would respond if Russia was to use chemical weapons in Ukraine, adding the “nature of the response would depend on the nature of the use”. Pretty open-ended.…

  • Yellow journalism in the nuclear age

    Since we are onto another mass-catastrophe issue in The Ukraine, we don’t want to leave Covid behind without remembering what an incoherent public policy disaster it has been. And here to assist is an excellent column by Adam Creighton in The Oz: Covid fears left behind in the wake of Ukraine. I will merely excerpt…

  • What was the 2014 Euromaidan Coup in Ukraine and why does it matter?

    This is a comment on a post at Powerline. It highlights how little we know about anything that surround so many of the major issues of the world today. There is evidence that the US was involved in the 2014 Maidan coup replacing the Ukrainian leader friendly to Russia with one friendly to the US.…

  • The Greatest Fraud in History

    Came across this: Wall Street analyst: COVID vaccines ‘greatest fraud in history’. This is the point: Dowd and a Wall Street insurance analyst with whom he has teamed, concludes the CDC data show the Millennial generation suffered a “Vietnam War event,” with more than 61,000 excess deaths from March 2021 to February 2022. That is more…
