REPORT CONFIRMS SINISTER ANTI-TRUMP CULTURE AT FBI

An Inspector General report confirms a get-Trump culture at the FBI. A top FBI lawyer on the endless investigation into Trump's [non-existent] collusion with Russia emailed an anti-Trump colleague: “Viva le Resistance.” An FBI agent on the dud Hillary Clinton probe repeated her supporters' slogan: "I'm ... with her." And there's more. This stinks.

37m
"Regarding the overall handling of the email probe itself, Inspector General Michael Horowitz extensively reviewed decisions about whom the FBI and DOJ interviewed, how they sought evidence, how they decided to grant immunity to certain people, and so on. Without endorsing all these choices, he concluded that overall, they were “not unreasonable” and seemed based on investigative judgment calls — not political bias, as President Trump and many on the right have often asserted."

So here is Bolt's lead to his post "I am allergic to conspiracy theories. But the evidence now is overwhelming - thanks in part to the extraordinary  new report by the Department of Justice inspector general - that there is a dangerous bias against Trump in the FBI." Bolt. Straight out of the barrel after 3 weeks away with BS and a lie. The DOJ report clearly stated that the investigation requested by the FBI and Comey himself showed there was No political bias found. Bolt simply uses his old tactic of admitting that no bias was declared only after he's written it up as if there was and even then he fails to admit the truth of the report by the DOJ. Simply batting for a side, not any truth or principle. No mention that James Comey actually requested the DOJ investigation.

 "The IG report clearly states that its investigation “found no evidence that the conclusions by department prosecutors were affected by bias or other improper considerations”; and yet, the president’s sycophants in right-wing media are spinning the report to claim that “anything that Mueller is doing” in his probe of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia “is tainted” by the IG’s findings."
 Bolt makes no mention that Manafort Trump's campaign manager in the 2016 election has had his bail revoked and jailed for witness tampering.

 

THE ONE PROTEST THE LEFT WANTS BANNED

While I was away, NSW Treasurer Dominic Perrotet gave a brilliant and important speech exposing the sheer hypocrisy of the politicians of the Left demanding new laws to stop even peaceful and non-harassing protests - if they are protests against abortion near abortion clinics.  Green protesters can meanwhile run amok. 

10m3
Bolt certainly didn't support the glitter protest he was succumbed to in Lygon st did he wanted them arrested when in fact he was the one who turned violent. I'm sorry women attending an abortion clinic are stressed enough without the type of haranguing we have seen them face by Bolt's peaceful protestors who have been known to kill people. These women don't like Bolt turn on those as viciously as Bolt did and attempt GBH, do they?

EUROPE'S CENSORS GROW STRONGER

The war on free speech is getting very serious. In Germany: "Germany’s most powerful cultural body has called for the plug to be pulled on the nation’s multitude of political talkshows for a year, arguing that their populist agenda has helped fuel the rise of the far right."  In France, parliament is discussing new laws against alleged "fake news".

9m
Bolt fails to mention that Donald Trump agrees with Europe.

 Bolt doesn't believe there's any difference between Soapbox Corner the MCG, a University and the media like News Corp advertising and selling product called "news" even when only less than 40% of the nation consider they getting what's being advertised is news and not just fanciful "opinion". If he were sold a car without an engine he'd be in court the first to complain about it. What are the chances he allows that verbal freedom and BS to flow freely in his house?

It's about time media like Breitbart, The Herald Sun, Sky News or even the ABC are held to task particularly when they sell a false product as News Corp does on countless occasions and feels justified in doing so. They have simply twisted the English language for a cent's sake.

 We've heard Bolt vilifying the South Sudanese here in Melbourne entertaining himself when mocking and laughing at the idea of a Sudanese Beauty Pageant and doing so sponsored by the IPA not as "comedy" but as pure bile and racism on a podcast with his son James who seemed more embarrassed for what it was his father was on about naturally in conversation.  There is a certain amount of responsibility that has gone missing when a shit show like the Bolt Report presents itself as "debate" but is little more than single-minded propaganda that compares itself with the ABC's The Drum or Q&A. Have you ever heard Bolt calling for the release of Julian?

It's about time we came to our senses instead of allowing ourselves to vanish down the American Fox "News" rabbit hole that will take us to the USA Wonderland of truth which is little more than a chase for a dollar and calling Hollywood and Disney Land essential news.

STUDENTS SHUN UNIVERSITY OF THE ANTI-HE/SHE

 Wilfrid Laurier University reprimanded a teaching assistant for daring to present both sides of an argument over Jordan Peterson, an academic opposed to gender-neutral pronouns. Now it pays the price for its modish ideological bullying: a 12.5 per cent fall in prospective students selecting this university as their first choice.  

27m

When  Gandhi was asked about "Western Civilisation" his response was " that would be a good idea" in much the same way Bolt supports turning University Science Departments into structureless opinion spaces rather than spaces developed with a method of debate in mind. According to Bolt Peter Ridd's public profile and statements about Marine Science at James Cook are in themselves Scientific and as such methodologically correct, unlike the rigorous research that has and continues to be done.

The debate Bolt put's forward about correctness seems to be the neoliberal one that James Cook will suffer for having sacked Peter Ridd who in fact gave science away to focus on politics. One would have thought that James Cook and the ANU were, in fact, upholding the standards of their university's integrity and standards by their rejection of Ridd Lomborg and the Ramsay Foundation.

TRUMP EXPOSES THE MEDIA AT KIM SUMMIT

Chris Kenny is superb on the media hatred of Donald Trump. The coverage of his summit with Kim Jong Un has displayed this never-Trump mania perfectly.

1h

"Trump gave a free-ranging press conference the likes of which we seldom, if ever, see from a US president." Kenny

 No, Donald Trump exposed himself in front of the media at the Kim Summit. The reason he knew the media by first names and pointed to questions from a very English speaking and respectful media was apparent in that they were White House selected. We didn't hear the normal announcement before a question who they represented only Trump calling out "Is that you John" people on a first name basis.

Bolt's tacking like a drunken sailor here his first post is Germany's want to restrict "Fake News" and praising Trump for restricting American MSM coverage to simply media that Trump likes such as Fox. In the hands of Murdochian's Trump's BS becomes "Kenny makes a great point on Trump's much-mocked communications style:" a smokescreen for "lies".

"I doubt I am alone in thinking there is something refreshing in this, despite the obvious risks." Bolt. Yes you heard it a press conference that was an in-house produced "show" is deemed "refreshing" by Andrew Bolt

 

HOW MUCH TRUMP-HATRED CAN THE ABC SPIT OUT?

Another brilliant Media Watch Dog blog by Gerard Henderson, containing multiple examples of Trump Derangement Syndrome at the ABC - which you pay to deliver what by law is meant to be an impartial service.

1h

 Bolt can't help but reveal himself can he "But, of course, the diversity Guthrie actually wants more is of skin colour and accent. Not opinion." Bolt One only needs to compare his show and The Drum to understand the meaning of the word "diversity" as opposed to the meaning of " Racism" when he opens his mouth.

BETTER OFF WITHOUT HER

Her children gave Kathleen Dehmlow, 80, a real send-off in their obituary for her in the Redwood Falls Gazette last week.

Andrew Bolt honed his 'skills' in journalism as an obit writer because he preferred opinion to fact as it was less demanding. No doubt he enjoyed these tidbits of non paid writings. One wonders why they drew his attention

  Israeli banks ‘pillage’ Palestine through settlement program and may be guilty of war crime – HRW

  Deep involvement of Israeli banks in the building of illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank may amount to the war crime of pillage, HRW has said. While the settlements are condemned worldwide, Israel keeps building more.

 New Jersey Governor Refuses to Ban Child Marriage Because 'It Would Conflict With Religious Customs' - ORGANIC AND HEALTHY

170, 000 Child marriages in the past decade 20,000 per year. They certainly aren't all Muslim a fact Bolt would never concede  or acknowledge. That Christians and not just Muslims accept the value of these  child marriages is indeed proof of Bolt's ignorance or fake commentary.

BOB MENZIES COULD SORT OUT THIS TURNBULL MOB

It should be an embarrassing party tonight at Old Parliament House.  It is the 75th anniversary of the famous “Forgotten People” speech Robert Menzies gave on radio as he built the new Liberal Party. It should mortify the Liberals today. Read it.

  Menzies didn't lead the Lib Party to victory the  Catholics screwed the Labor Party just as they are doing today. Fear was the great Liberal draw card then and Bob Santa Maria like Abbott used the fear of Communism as the lever  to power back in the day. Fear of the bomb the Domino Theory all of which sent us to Vietnam and war. It was all them or us politics that allowed us to assist in the mass slaughter of Indonesians and Vietnamese. 

Andrew Bolt who wasn't born somehow sees these as the glory and not the gory days of Australian history.

 

WHY TRUMP HAD TO SACK COMEY

We’re told Donald Trump  sacked FBI boss James Comey to stop him investigating his campaign’s alleged collusion with the Russian Government. But there is a serious problem with this story — the three letters that led to Comey’s sacking and prove Trump had no choice. 

What the key author said about his own letter was that he and the DOJ of America didn't pull the trigger and weren't the catalyst that had Comey fired contradicting Trump.

"The White House has struggled since Comey's firing to explain the chain of events that led to it and who exactly made the decision. Trump said as recently as Thursday that he acted on a "very strong" recommendation from Rosenstein, but Rosenstein made it clear to Congress that he drafted his memo only after Trump told him of his plans to dismiss the FBI director." 

 Bolt and his three letters simply walks over what Rosenstein has said. That Trump wasn't  acting on the recommendation of the DOJ at all but had decided to sack Comey off his own bat. " Rosenstein said he wrote the memo after President Donald Trump told him one day before the May 9 firing that he wanted to dismiss Comey." The deputy attorney general just threw more cold water on the White ...

All we have is Andrew Bolt towing the Fox News Line defend Trump at all costs it's the path to business and influence it's the yellow brick road built by Roger Ailes.

Even Trump's son contradicts his dad when he denies telling Comey to back off Flynn.

ABBOTT; WHAT MENZIES CAN TEACH TODAY'S LIBERALS. ALAS

Tony Abbott reads some critical lessons for today's hapless Liberals from the Forgotten People speech delivered by party founder Robert Menzies 75 years ago. One: it is a mistake to give up fighting for what you believe in.

"A fifth column is any group of people who undermine a larger group from within," 

 New Corp  putting icing on their Abbott cake. This is a Paywall and yes you guessed to The Australian. Robert Menzie's can't have an opinion of Tony Abbott but he's been appropriated by him and Pig Iron Bob  is used like a sock puppet by Tony. Maurice Newman is brought in to assist. The problem the real Liberal Party isn't there only Abbott is and a ghost of a time passed brought together in a News Corp fantasy.

 

FROM FRYING PAN TO ANOTHER SENATE FIRE

The Turnbull Government thought it would get a fresh start if it produced a Labor Budget. Instead: "At least $14 billion in key budget measures faces a Senate blockade, undermining the Turnbull government’s attempt to reset its ­reform agenda." Will the answer be to give up again? And again?    

The only fear conservatives have is participating in reality. Libs today have a fresh chance with $14bill that may be passed dumping Abbott's $14 bill that couldn't. The politics of the center is where real Australians live and exist. It's were decisions are made and Bills passed. Where you are what you do and not what you incessantly talk about but do nothing. Abbott passed less bills than Julia Gillard and we paid him to do nothing. We paid for flags uniforms and anthems just like the Menzie's dream-time fantasy in the post above when  nothing got done.

 Abbott's current fear is that he was a  one trick pony and that he's recognized as such. News Corp's fear if they don't have anyone but Tony Abbott because they were so attached before. They haven't a message they  can expand and they see what they do have is fraying. Even Corporations are turning away  Quantas is pro same sex Marriage, AGL is transitioning to renewables. Banks are not entirely on board with coal and the IPA message isn't as strong even though they have increased the MP numbers. The problem Labor is no longer falling apart. 

DOES THE FBI HAVE ANYTHING AT ALL ON TRUMP?

Even the Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi, who blames Fox News for the end of US civilisation, smells a rat: "What exactly is the FBI investigating? Why was it kept secret from other intelligence chiefs, if that's what happened?.. [With so many leaks] the American public should have heard what's behind the Trump-Russia investigation by now."

Andrew Bolt is a flipper  of the tallest order"Even the Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi, who blames Fox News for the end of US civilisation, smells a rat:" Bolt

Using the Rolling Stone and a real journalist Matt Taibbi to defend Trump is like using Waleed Aly or the ABC to defend Abbott. Real journalists ask real questions of all sides and that's what the ABC does and it's what the Rolling Stone is doing.. Bolt doesn't the worst he does is hit Tony Abbott with a feather duster.

 It's why  journalists rarely focus on Andrew Bolt  at all other than when they are in direct opposition to him  like Paul Kelly and Chris Mitchell often are. Others generally get on with their work. Bolt on the otherhand will use them to bolster himself and it's what he's doing here. Matt Taibbi is asking questions not of Trump but of the FBI and he's a real journalist and Andrew Bolt is using that. Bolt hasn't many places to turn when defending Trump other than Breitbart, News Corp and their ilk which becomes too obvious because they are the same team and in the main it's who he turns to here News Corp, IPA, Quadrant etal and other lazy propagandists who don't have time to use reasoned analysis. So when opportunity knocks Bolt turns to  real journalism when questioning the FBI's motives. Bolt feels it's bolstering Trump's defense. It's flipping where Trump is innocent  Hilary was guilty where the FBI are a fith column they were once heroes. Truth isn't a goal and has no place in propaganda.

The problem is that the conspiracy of a total organization like the  FBI  acting in unison  is a pipe dream because all it's members seem to support their sacked boss. Where the White House  is the total opposite.   Matt Taibbi's questions don't really seem to be as barbed, blinkered or desperate in their accusations as those coming from Fox News whose backs seem really to the wall in their defense of Trump. Hannity Carlson don't care because they are in the business of ratings and influence they don't need to win or lose just be in your face. That's what Bolt strives for. 

 

  

TIM FLANNERY OUT-FLANNERIED: PREDICTION OF 6 MILLION DEAD

Roll over Tim Flannery. You've been replaced as Australia's worst warming alarmist by Ian Dunlop, former chairman of the Australian Coal Association: "Our current path ...  would create a totally disorganised world with a substantial reduction in population, possibly to less than one billion people from 7.5 billion today."

  What Bolt avoids mentioning is what the Age is really discussing the risk of science being right"Nowhere in the debate is the critical issue even raised: the existential risk of climate change, which such development now implies. Existential means a risk posing large negative consequences to humanity that can never be undone. One where an adverse outcome would either annihilate life, or permanently and drastically curtail its potential.
This is the risk to which we are now exposed unless we rapidly reduce global carbon emissions."
Bolt hides the context the trajectory and path global science shows we are on to fob off the argument as just childish nonsense why? "It is already impossible to stay below the 1.5-degree Paris aspiration. To have a realistic chance of staying below even 2 degrees means that no new fossil-fuel projects can be built globally – coal, oil or gas – and that existing operations, particularly coal, must be rapidly replaced with low-carbon alternatives. Further, carbon-capture technologies that do not currently exist must be rapidly deployed at scale." The Age
Mock Ian Dunlop degrade him as a crank even though he was Chairman  of the ACA The Australian Coal Association. Flannery has nothing to do with Dunlop's warnings.

HOW THE HYPOCRITE LEFT HATES

With the Left it's not the principle that counts but the side. Imagine the uproar if a conservative painted a picture like this of Julie Gillard: "Artist Van T Rudd said he painted the mural on a shop wall on Donald Street in Footscray as a statement against [Pauline Hanson's] "extreme right-wing" views." Rudd claims to be for "compassion".

  "Ditch the Bitch" with Tony Abbott was pretty noticable. There not much to imagine as to how badly Gillard was depicted by Bolt.

MARK LATHAM WALKS INTO THE HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION...

Mark Latham walks into the Human Rights Commission to explain why it's a menace to freedom - not least through its pushing of racial quotas.  He then does a streetwalk in an Asian enclave of Sydney to prove his point.

   Mark Latham is Bolt's replacement of Milo Yiannopolous.

 

THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW

A magnificent list by Professor Jordan P. Peterson, a clinical psychologist.

 Bolt loves instructions particularly giving them. Why was he trained so badly so as to not be able to listen to others unlike himself?  Notice what Andrew Bolt doesn't tell you

" Jordan Peterson. Jordan Bernt Peterson (born June 12, 1962) is a Canadian clinical psychologist and professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. His main areas of study are the psychology of religious and ideological belief, and the assessment and improvement of personality and performance."  "

"Something we cannot see protects us from something we do not understand. The thing we cannot see is culture, in its intrapsychic or internal manifestation. The thing we do not understand is the chaos that gave rise to culture.
If the structure of culture is disrupted, unwittingly, chaos returns. We will do anything--anything--to defend ourselves against that return."Petersen
Bolt however doesn't believe in the unseen society he only believes in the individual the only reason Bolt favors the professor is he's a strident conservative who sees social change as chaos and not progress.
Let's judge Andrew Bolt according Peterson's Rules. I tried but there are more than Sharia so I caved
 Tell the truth. Bolt is a convicted liar
Do not do things that you hate. Bolt stereotypes others
Act so that you can tell the truth about how you act. Bolt never admits he's wrong
Pursue what is meaningful, not what is expedient. Bolt works for News Corp
If you have to choose, be the one who does things, instead of the one who is seen to do things. Bolt is all talk
Pay attention. Bolt doesn't listen
Assume that the person you are listening to might know something you need to know. Listen to them hard enough so that they will share it with you. Bolt hasn't an empathetic bone in his body
Plan and work diligently to maintain the romance in your relationships.  Bolt put's his family in danger
Be careful who you share good news with. Bolt's a braggart
Be careful who you share bad news with. Bolt's a paid whinger
Make at least one thing better every single place you go. Bolt has to be dragged out
Imagine who you could be, and then aim single-mindedly at that. Bill O'Reilly
Do not allow yourself to become arrogant or resentful. Oops
Try to make one room in your house as beautiful as possible. Yes it's Bolt's study
I started and just got too bored
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.
Work as hard as you possibly can on at least one thing and see what happens. Today's blog is proof of failure
If old memories still make you cry, write them down carefully and completely.
Maintain your connections with people.
Do not carelessly denigrate social institutions or artistic achievement. Total fail
Treat yourself as if you were someone that you are responsible for helping. Treats himself as the only person he's helping
Ask someone to do you a small favour, so that he or she can ask you to do one in the future. Remember Miranda he didn't assume he just tried to takeover her space
Make friends with people who want the best for you. He hasn't any
Do not try to rescue someone who does not want to be rescued, and be very careful about rescuing someone who does. Bolt's only here for himself
Nothing well done is insignificant. Bolt's not very significant
Set your house in perfect order before you criticize the world.Oops
Dress like the person you want to be. A suit
Be precise in your speech. Convicted as not doing that
Stand up straight with your shoulders back.
Don't avoid something frightening if it stands in your way -- and don't do unnecessarily dangerous things. Hides in plain sight
Do not let your children do anything that makes you dislike them.
Do not transform your wife into a maid. Guilty
Do not hide unwanted things in the fog.
Notice that opportunity lurks where responsibility has been abdicated.
Read something written by someone great.
Pet a cat when you encounter one on the street.
Do not bother children when they are skateboarding.
Don't let bullies get away with it.
Write a letter to the government if you see something that needs fixing -- and propose a solution.
Remember that what you do not yet know is more important than what you already know.
Be grateful in spite of your suffering.

 

THE KILLERS AND RAPISTS BUREAUCRATS INSIST MUST STAY

Bizarre: "Murderers, rapists, paedophiles, armed robbers and drug dealers are among the scores of criminals the [Administrative Appeals Tribunal} has saved from deportation... AAT members were given detailed evidence of the ... crimes committed by the 76 men and five women, but still decided to overturn all of the ministerial deportation orders."

Warning this is a Paywall to attract  you to the Herald Sun. Goebbels couldn't have done better

 Bolt's parents came  from Aalesmeer Netherlands the town most reputed for supporting Hitler and hunting down Jews. The Netherlands killed more Dutch Jews that Germany did  kill German Jews. Given these simple facts why were Bolt's parents allowed to come to Australia ?

Crime in a multicultural country  is only the right of citizens after how many generations? Typical yes Jews comitted crimes  in the Netherlands and the Dutch fixed them.

 

HYPOCRITES: TRUMP NEVER SWORE OR GAVE THE FINGER LIKE THE DEMOCRATS DO

Remember the journalists outraged that Donald Trump called Hillary Clinton "crooked". Remember the Democrats disgusted by such crudity?  Hypocrites. Now watch the outgoing head of the Californian Democrats shout "F... Trump" and lead a crowd in giving him the digit. With the Left it's never the principle that counts but the side.

  Read the post above and watch Bolt deliver a fascist salute to extreme right wing thinking without swearing of course.

 

LEFT ACTIVISTS OUTSPEND RIGHT BY $121m A YEAR

Well-heeled activists are outspending the Right to demand even more money be spent on them and their causes: "Research from the Menzies Research Centre shows that politically left groups are spending an estimated $160 million a year on political campaigning — $121m more than pro-Liberal and pro-enterprise groups on the right." This cannot end well.

 Nine or 10 upper middleclass conservatives from private schools just spent $165 mill of tax payers money in less than a year and would have spent more on their secret campaign and Bolt turns Australians actively involved in politics. News Corp transferred $4.5 bill out of the country to actively not pay tax. Let's get the balance right please.
 

 

 

HOW OUR REFUGEE POLICY IS A CRIME AGAINST AUSTRALIANS

The level and severity of crimes in Melbourne by African refugees and their children is astonishing and an indictment of our refugee policies. Here are the three latest examples, including another alleged brutal home invasion by six to eight Africans. How on earth did we import this danger? Why was it covered up for so long?

 We all agree then that Peter Dutton should be arrested along with Tony Abbott but that will never occur. However history will judge them and not too kindly.

" The level and severity of crimes by African refugees and their children is astonishing and an indictment of our refugee policies. Here are the three latest examples, including another alleged brutal home invasion by six to eight Africans. How on earth did we import this danger? "Bolt

The level of crime committed by the children of the  upper class and well to do goes entirely unmentioned by Andrew Bolt it's literally a form of welfare which pays and protects the amount of White Collar Crime that takes place. How often do you see Bolt mention these crimes unless committed by a Muslim. Let one Muslim no Christian immigrant from Africa step out of line and Bolt is totally outraged. However he never discusses the crime committed by the kids in private schools where murder, manslaughter, GBH, arson and drug related mayhem also exist along with undisclosed rape. If Bolt in any way intends to want a real conversation about crime he really does need to address it with a far less blinkered view.

Visibility is significantly different for different groups and as a consequence the statistics only reveal policing even those statistics aren't clear when one 13 year old is out on bali and charged with 20 offences to be caught and charged again. Bolt will then charge the whole African community with 50 offences committed by one person. The statistics he uses by no means clarifies anything but are used as a tool to support his anti- Immigration stand and not explain what is happening. By the way many of these kids are Christian Bolt's silent on that.
