News Corporation employs Right-Wing Broadcasters providing them with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Their Social Media Platforms not only advocate conservative, and extreme right-wing wing views. They monitor out most opposing opinions which they are entitled to do. However, they also simply lie when they say they provide an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no-spin zone. They don't it's all spin.
In a year of crippling drought,
bushfires, and a bitterly fought federal election campaign, one
repeatedly debunked claim stood out among the rest. RMIT ABC Fact Check
wraps up the year that was in fact checking.
MEMO TO GUARDIAN: CALLING ME 'LUNATIC' AND 'CRIMINAL' WON'T CHANGE MY MIND
COLUMN
The Guardian Australia quoted several paragraphs I wrote and said I'm a
“denier” of facts. Yet it didn't identify one error in the many facts
I’d cited about global warming. Nor did its readers. But they did say
I’m an “infant”, “lunatic”, “unhinged”, “criminal”, “liar”,
“bullshitter”, “idiot” and “parasite”. Strangely, this won't change my
mind.
We know Bolt won't change his mind that's hardly news!! Bolt has spent weeks upon weeks personally and not very politely abusing in highly personal terms Bruce Pascoe and Greta Thunberg who we know won't change their minds either. Yet, they don't do what Bolt is now doing crying "poor me". He fails to focus on the issues and facts and like a Trumpster is playing the victim.
As for facts Bolt spent almost half of this Century declaring the planet was cooling "Not Warming". He spent a lot of energy telling us that the Arctic Ice was increasing and he's put a lot of effort into trying to convince us that the bushfires we are experiencing, the drought, and the extreme temperatures and broken records aren't exceptional but are normal.
Here he is saying" I've never made a single error". I think it's sufficient reason for all the expletives. They are deserved and Bolt complaining about them does make him an infant, a loser and a wanker that ought to behave the way he wants others to treat him. He certainly doesn't lead by example he talks the talk bu doesn't walk the walk.
538 Polls Show Donald Trump Winning In A Landside in 2020
The popular site for political analysis and polling, 538
is showing Donald Trump is going to have a landside victory in 2020. A
vast majority of data reveals the President’s base as being energized as
well as woefully inept spellers.
Andrew Canard is an analyst for 538. He’s certain Democrats will fall under the GOP’s geological phenomena known as a landside.
“I’ve heard the northern side of the electoral mountain is chilly,” he
stated. “Ice forms there and makes things slippery. It’s hard to see any
Democrat getting a firm footing in such an environment.”
The polls showing a devastating victory for Republicans are:

FOXNews and its viewers still don’t understand a landside isn’t a
landslide. The FOX News poll results point to a stunning win for
National Socialist German Workers Party in 2020. Data analysis from FOX
reveals Trump will win battleground states like Pennsylvania, Bavaria,
and Saxony.
Rank and file Republicans don’t understand why Democrats refuse to understand the awesome power of landsides.
“I don’t get it. Are Dumbocrats smart enough to know when they’re
getting owned?” questioned one graduate from Dunning-Kruger University.
GOP lawmakers are telling their constituents it’s just another case
of the liberal fake media being liberal and fake. Right-wing leaders are
reassuring their fans as long as they stay unreasonably angry
everything will work out fine.
Democrats have unveiled two articles of impeachment against Donald
Trump, accusing him of abusing his presidential power and obstructing
Congress's attempts to investigate his dealings with Ukraine.
Schiff
defended the Democrats' decision to impeach the President even though
they have not been able to hear from important witnesses and despite the
fact an election is less than a year away.
"The argument to wait is to let Trump cheat in another election and to let him get foreign help in another election," he said.
Trump the Yellow baby's legacy has been written (ODT)
The Coalition has
reintroduced the freshly-defeated EI Bill, doubling-down on its
anti-union agenda in the guise of industrial relations reform policy.
One thing overlooked is that merging Public Service Departments is an indirect means of reducing the size of the Public Service not under any advice Morrison has made a Captains Call that will also reduce the size of the PS Union. It seems more than coincidence that it's occurring alongside this Lazarus Bill. (ODT)
What particular preferences and prejudices of Morrison do the latest changes reveal? I think it reveals this government’s disdain for public servants. It’s the revenge of the ministerial staffers (which many ministers started their political careers as). Who needs public servants
giving ministers advice when it’s the staffers who understand the politics of the matter? Morrison has repeatedly expressed his belief that he doesn’t need policy advice from public servants. They should just be getting on with implementing the policies the government gives them.

GAGGING ON GIG: REGULATE FREEDOM UNTIL IT NO LONGER WORKS
It's working. Hundreds of thousands of Australians are
grabbing the chance to work for themselves: "Seven per cent of working
Australians [are] finding jobs through the 'gig economy', using more
than 100 digital platforms to generate income." But Labor hates freedom:
"The Victorian Government has set up the Inquiry into the On-Demand
Workforce."
The freedom Bolt talks of and calls the GIG economy was here before but it was called The Great Depression. Bolt telling you it works of course it does and no doubt he'd applaud the freedom of kids to be able to join it. The freedom of no security sweatshops to pay whatever they like because as Bolt says "It Works". It's fantastic it's called small business. Change the narrative and the problem disappears according to this moronic hack who works for an organisation that's bleeding money but has foreign aid and tax avoidance to keep it afloat. It's alright for Bolt he's a fully subsidised tax deduction supported by us to the tune of 30%
Another term for this new narrative is the On-Demand Workforce. It once had to hit the road and doorknock for jobs what luxury it can hit the new digital highway.
Multicultural wars for Bolt are synonymous with Race which if he could fix Lebanese Africans Muslims and a variety of others shouldn't be allowed in. History has no significance for Bolt who claims to be an "Indigenous Australian". Before Bolt was even born multicultural brawling was very much a part of Melbourne. Catholics and Protestants faced off as did "wogs" and Aussies. Mods and Rockers did so in the 60s as did Jazzers and Rockers. Saturday nights were "fight nights" and they were regular events around Melbourne among teenagers. I was set upon simply because I went to a High school. Fights were always multicultural events even though at times they seemed like class wars. Preston vs Brighton if any group invaded one's territory.
Bolt's ignorance stems from the fact he wasn't a city boy and was never really more than a fringe dweller and an elitist wherever he went. Bolt was an alien never really and Australian and frankly never really wanted to be one. He readily admits he was a foreigner and clawed his way into Australia via women until he got married. However, then he claims he became one of "us" little does he know he didn't. So who is his "us"? He holidays away from Australia prefers the company in a Dutch town with a notorious Nazi reputation. A bigoted anti-semitic town whose history he never mentions. Even when here in Melbourne he leads a very secret life isolated from I dare say even his own family who are it seems far more Australian than even he is.
PASCOE'S APPEAL FOR HELP TO FIND HIS 'ABORIGINAL' ANCESTOR
Bruce Pascoe, author of Black Emu, says he's called himself
Aboriginal since the 1980s. But in 1993 he wrote: "I have been looking
for my Koori family for a number of years without much success. My great
grandmother Sarah Matthews was born at Dudley, South Gippsland... [and]
may have come to South Gippsland on a sealing vessel." Wrong and wrong.

What do Bruce Pascoe, Duncan Storrah, Zaky Mallah, Yassmin Abdel Magied and Waleed Aly all have in common? Andrew Bolt's personal psychotic obsession to destroy them as individuals any which way he can rather than actually debate them or the issues they argue and represent. Bolt looks for and indulges in their personal characteristics rather than address them in face to face debate and the issues they have brought to light. He has spent an inordinate amount of time and effort to destroy their characters. Is it because they ignored him and treat him as they would a mosquito or blowfly?

'ABORIGINAL HISTORIAN' BRUCE PASCOE REPLIES, BUT HIS DARK EMU LOOKS SICKER
COLUMN
Finally! “Aboriginal author” Bruce Pascoe replies to my questions about his identity and bizarre book, Dark Emu. ABC presenters also responded after I asked why their ABC will run a TV series starring Pascoe and his anti-white “history”. But they’ve just made this farce worse, and now comes more evidence of how badly Pascoe misquotes his "sources".
4m ago
Firstly Bolt's Identity political history may well be "white" but Pascoe's isn't and ant-white history it's history a revision thereof and history isn't as fixed as Andrew Bolt appears to think it is. Secondly, there is nobody who misquotes sources his sources more than Andrew Bolt or dedicates his time looking for sources that only support his arguments without fact-checking them.
Bolt's personal and biased view of history had him almost sued unless he admitted to fabricating it. His ex-fiance was prepared to challenge Bolt in court unless he walked back on his Walter Mitty tale and he did blame his wife for his lies. That's the fantasist we hear bragging each day that he knows and you don't.
Bolt cuts and pastes the works of others like Professor Kench the marine biologist fro NZ. Kench's conclusions are meant to oceans aren't rising and Kiribati and Tuvalu aren't in any imminent danger. If one reads Kench you find he says nothing of the sort that his research spans a period of time that in no way guarantees that things are changing now. Bolt ignores all of Kench's qualifications as they don't suit his argument. There are fewer cyclones according to Bolt, therefore, less danger and damage than previously. Yet Insurance company actuaries reflect an entirely different scenario requiring premiums to go up not down if one were to believe Andrew Bolt. In fact, the government wants all taxpayers across Australia to subsidize those living in the danger zone.
No fact-checking for Andrew Bolt when he promotes a film on the Great Barrier Reef and how it's improving and not dying the scientist and her work claims the IPA has misquoted her work entirely and not only that filmed their bullshit in different locations from her research need I go on to prove Andrew Bolt is a huckster chasing ratings maybe but never the truth.
If Dr Andy Pitman wants to correct a verbal error he made do you think Andrew Bolt allows him the courtesy of the correction which makes Bolt look bad? Not on your life!! Pitman overlooked the word "direct" when discussing global warming and drought. That instead of no connection between warming and drought been found he meant to say what is a far more sceptics response no "direct" connection found. Bolt's pig-headed arrogance had him say " Pitman only said this when he thought I (Andrew Bolt) wasn't listening. Yes Bolt has a privileged position but that position doesn't make his opinions a reflection of reality or history.
There is no "strange" case of Constable Walker there is the case "against" him due to the evidence collected by the police.
No surprise that Andrew Bolt who rails against identity politics actually raises it here together with his favourite subtext that reverse Racism exists and it's being applied in the NT against Constable Walker the victim and not the just a case of murder brought by the Police and accepted by the NT DPP.
Bolt has brought up the spectre of identity politics not for the first time mind you but simply flipping White Racism which has existed in Australia since the British Colony was formed. No doubt the Myall Creek Massacre was a case of white men hanged and victimized as well.
Bolt doesn't simply ask questions but states a biased and underlying opinion without any knowledge of the facts. His is propaganda via fantasy lacking any want of truth. Everything according to Bolt is subjective and the battle for the narrative is his to win despite any social reality.
Concerns over the security of our fuel supply, shifts in international car manufacturing trends and the health impacts of exhaust fumes are piquing interest in electric and hydrogen vehicles. So which technology is in the lead?

FAKE AND TWISTED NEWS
HOW THE ABC'S GET-PELL WITCHHUNTERS RAGED AT THE HIGH COURT
The ABC acted shamefully in helping to get George Pell falsely convicted of rape. Journalists became prosecutors, and the ABC locked into protecting them. This ensured the ABC's reporting on the High Court granting Pell leave to appeal was also hostile. Gerard Henderson checks Louise Milligan, one of the new tribal savages who said Pell would fail.
Despite years of effort and News Corp's wailing for-profit Greek chorus, they have had no real influence over the court process that has seen George Pell go all the way to the Supreme court of appeal. Only the private wealth of his donors and the fighting fund have enabled it and even less so his church. Pell will never be reinstated to any of the positions he once held. So will we see Andrew Bolt fight for him to become Pope if the State finds him not guilty? Will we see him squeeze the last bit of juice out of this lucrative tale sin it for all he can?
The most ridiculous and selfish claim has been that the finding of Pell as guilty was down to the ABC. That News Corp had no effect, was impotent, but the ABC was all-powerful. If that were the case, the people would have won on all counts British Justice and the myth of public opinion.
It's as if Justice and the collecting of evidence throughout the long years of meticulous legal procedures had nothing to do with it. It's simply easy, all Andrew Bolt has to do is call the primary witness a liar, and ignore the mountain of other evidence that lead the juries in each case pronounce Pell guilty.
Guilty or not the due process will have been done without the needless abuse of people by, hucksters like Bolt, whose want is to claim credit or disclaim a verdict, why? For no other reason than their own imaginary self-importance and attention. To elevate themselves and profit from the course of events whichever way they should fall.
'UNPRECEDENTED FIRES!' SCREAM WARMISTS, IGNORING ALL THE OTHERS
"Unprecedented fires" in NSW! In November! More on these fake claims by global warming catastrophists: "People talking about 'unprecedented fires created by AGW' should reflect on this: in Sept 1968, NSW had 68 straight days of bushfires, killing 14 people and burning out more than a million hectares." Why haven't more journalists pointed this out?
Remember when Bolt elected the year 1998 and told us the planet was cooling when all the scientists said the TREND was warming. He could go back to that event and try that argument again. He' wouldn't get too far. The term unprecedented in this circumstance lends itself to more than the simple facts Bolt presents Oh remember 1968 that was worse. What is significant is Andrew Bolt screaming and frothing "Why isn't anyone listening to me".
Insurance premiums should be coming down not up if Bolt was right. The actuaries studying these events aren't praising Bolt they are ignoring him, and they are taking far more factors into account than Bolt is who making out these are just "normal" Aussie fires. How is it we are so undermanned compared to 1968? What is the word of a Murdochian idiot screaming and yelling demanding to be heard from the sidelines compared with those of experts with long-time experience?
WE PAY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WHO INFLATED HIS PENIS
Gosh, Labor's Medevac laws are working well. Or not: "An asylum seeker who botched his DIY penis enlargement by injecting himself with palm oil has been transferred to Australia under Labor’s controversial medevac laws so he can have a genital reconstruction...The man... was arrested for throwing boiling water on a security guard."

We may not know what Andrew Bolt does with his penis, but we see him regularly try to inflate his ego. From that are we to conclude hi penis teeny weeny? How big he became after attempting GBH on a couple of pranksters that had done little more than glittered him. He called on the world to fight back like he did and not let jokesters get away with anything. He made out that he was a role model for all of us to follow. He even went on after the Barcelona attacks by terrorists telling us just how much he admired their conviction and wished Christians in the West had that level of belief. If that's not enabling by a guy with a limp dick calling on others to fight what is?
UNSPINNING NINE. NOT 'WITNESS TAMPERING'. NOT REALLY EVEN A 'WITNESS'
Channel Nine's take (and Seven's): "Donald Trump is tonight facing accusations of witness tampering after targeting a former diplomat while she was testifying in the impeachment hearings." Real story? She wasn't a witness to anything. Watch David Nunes get her to admit she saw and heard nothing relevant. (But that doesn't fit the media's narrative.)

Bolt has some knew approach to "evidence" it all needs to be "primary". If that were the case, murderers would be released as there are very few cases where they are actually seen in the act. If one person said he saws them do it, they'd get off because millions hadn't. We could do away with the courts as most witnesses aren't witnesses to anything. As for Trump intimidating a person giving evidence while doing it, he's broke the very laws he's supposed to protect. Obstruction by intimidation of a person giving evidence in a public hearing. Had trump been present yelling out his tweets he'd have been arrested for a Crime.
Lt.
Col. Alexander Vindman, who listened to President Trump's Ukraine call,
said the White House transcript of a July call between President Donald Trump
and Ukraine's President omitted crucial words and phrases, and that his
attempts to restore them failed, according to three people familiar
with the testimony.
It is not clear why some of Vindman's changes were not made, while
others he recommended were, but the decision by a White House lawyer to
quickly lock down the reconstructed transcript subverted the normal
process of handling such documents.
"I did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a US citizen, and I was worried about the implications for the US government's support of Ukraine," according to his opening remarks. He added, "This would all undermine US national security."
In the whistleblower complaint that was made public, the CIA officer
wrote that placing the rough transcript in the server was part of an
effort to lock it down, restrict access and a sign that "White House
officials understood the gravity of what had transpired in the call."

CRAZED ANTI-MINING PROTESTERS AGAINST A MINE TO HELP MAKE SOLAR PANELS
Terry McCrann on crazed climate protesters in Melbourne: "Stuart Jones ... and his company are ‘climate criminals’ to those loitering Jeff’s shed idiots... Jones was down at the IMARC mining conference ... to sell his [lithium] project... That’s about a product without which we wouldn’t have solar panels."
Generalising from a single selectively chosen case to broad speculation about the protest is what's known as Bolt logic. It's probably why Bolt never did comleter his University course.
Stuart Jones just happened to be one person at the Mining Conference along with a wide cast of attendees the majority of whom weren't there to promote the interests of clean energy. Still, then McCrann and Bolt choose to create fake news to broadcast their message, and it doesn't come without cost.
NEW LAW TO HELP LABOR AND STOP POOR PALMER FROM WASTING MONEY
Queensland's Labor Government smells: "Campaign finance reforms in Queensland would still allow unions and GetUp to spend up to $1m each...and allow the Palaszczuk government to run taxpayer-funded ads when political party spending is restricted... For a party, that would limit the amount spent in any electorate to $92,000."
What does anybody consider the value of the Courier Mail and the Australian support to be? Along with Sky News After Dark, it would be immeasurable? Will the reforms even touch the sides of these biased, conservative donors, lobbyists and influencers? They are neither news nor information alone. The Unions and GetUp have to raise the first money to be heard. Murdoch media business can run at a loss and still be heard, as there's a Quid pro Quo return for their efforts. The much sort after regular advertising that comes with elections. There was a time long ago when they weren't so one-sided when Gough had their support, and Andrew Bolt was 12.
WYATT PICKS HATE-TWEETER LANGTON TO ADVISE ON 'RECONCILIATION'
Why is he trying to "fix" a non-problem?: "Ken Wyatt has moved to break the impasse with Aboriginal leaders over indigenous recognition by proposing... a 'voice to government'". And why is he picking a hate-screecher to advise him?: "Wyatt, the Indigenous Australians Minister, has enlisted... Marcia Langton." Langton? Has he checked her tweets?
Hate screecher Bolt with the power of Murdoch screeching hate at a woman yelling get your fucking foot off my throat
COLDEST SNAP? THEN IT'S JUST WEATHER, NOT THE CLIMATE CATASTROPHE
If we were talking about hot days instead, it would be big news: "A late-season chill just caused a pair of frosty mornings in parts of southern Australia, with some areas seeing their lowest back-to-back minimums in more than a century this late in the year."
Bolt just keeps banging his head doesn't he trying to disparage events that are part of a worldwide "trend" rather than offered up as proof. They are "news" because they are part of a trend and have been for some time. Whereas the cold snaps Bolt's referring to aren't. There is a difference which he is paid not to see.

The US pullout has proven chaotic. It ran into a new hitch when neighbouring Iraq said on Tuesday that American forces did not have permission to stay on its territory. The Iraqi announcement seemed to contradict US Defence Secretary Mark Esper, who a day earlier said the forces leaving Syria would deploy in Iraq to fight IS.
Erdogan is "a thief", Assad told troops during a visit to the north-western province of Idlib. "He stole the factories and the wheat and the oil in cooperation with Daesh [Islamic State] and now is stealing the land."

He is known as a kill buyer, although he prefers the term horse trader. He buys horses no one wants and trucks them to a place that no horse wants to end up.
The horses he buys are nearly all retired racehorses or trotters, he tells The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. He says he buys most of his gallopers direct from trainers, licensed participants in an industry which has spent the past four days claiming it has no idea so many thoroughbreds are sent to abattoirs.
"Most of them are some sort of racehorse. We don't buy people's riding horses or saddle horses." If what Loffel says is true, the industry’s claim that horses are being slaughtered beyond their sight is bunk; any trainer who sells a horse to Loffel knows exactly where it is going.
MEGHAN AND HARRY: NOT VICTIMS BUT WHINGERS
Media arseholes tend to unite to themselves for nothing more than ratings sake and attention. Here in Australia, the wannabe loudest arsehole has been Andrew Bolt. Andrew Bolt is, also Australia's head and leading whinger who has turned on Harry and Megan simply because he can and wants attention. However, he's a latecomer to the bovver feast an also-ran to put in the boot.
Remember how Bolt whinged ever so loudly when our law turned on him for not behaving appropriately. What did Bolt do? He bit his lower lip sulked, whinged and wailed like the spoilt brat he is, postured and threatened to quit the media. However, when nobody yelled "don't" to our disappointment, he didn't.
So what we have here is a Monarchist, a Media arsehole who rarely provides News or information directly supporting two dysfunctional institutions. By attacking Harry and Megan victims of both for speaking up by using the law. Rather than defending Harry and Megan's right, he's defending a corrupt media that feeds off a Cultural Dinosaur for profit. A press, whose editor's mindset is "if it bleeds it leads" and who in the case of Megan "make her bleed" to get the lead. Andrew Bolt, in all of this, is a simple camp follower, a lazy latecomer who has stolen the opportunity to stick his knife in and twist it. It's what he calls his job.
However, when he was charged and found guilty, he wailed like a spoilt brat and claimed victimhood. Then neither our law nor the media failed like they have Harry and Megan. They are currently gorging on the opportunity of profit by screwing two individuals who they have made bleed. Bolt is defending the Bovver boy actions of his team.

IN 26 YEARS, THE ABC'S MEDIA WATCH HAS NEVER CORRECTED THE BIG CLIMATE LIE
The ABC's Media Watch in 26 years has never corrected what even a global warming scientist admits is a popular newspaper falsehood - that global warming causes droughts. Instead, it now does a cover up, only to be exposed by a PowerPoint slide. From The Bolt Report.

For how many years did we hear Climate expert Andrew Bolt declare the 'Planet is Cooling". Has he ever apologised and heard to say he was "wrong"? He's wrong now as well, We saw how this media thug used Andy Pitman then threw him aside simply to attack Paul Barry and the ABC, why? For revealing how Bolt used Pitman for his own benefit and not the underlying truth that global warming does have an indirect connection to the "intensity of droughts" which Bolt denies. Just as he did when he insisted the Planet was cooling.
TURKEY MAKES PEACE DEAL ON SYRIA. TRUMP'S 'MISTAKE' ISN'T
True, Russia emerges as the king-maker, but Donald Trump's pullout is not the bloody mistake we were told: "Russia and Turkey agreed on Tuesday...to ensure Kurdish forces withdraw from areas close to Syria's border with Turkey and to launch joint patrols ... just hours ahead of a deadline for Turkey to restart its assault on Syrian Kurdish forces."
3h ago America pulled out of Vietnam to win the war for peace. Trump pulled out of Syria to win the war for peace. Now Iraq wants the Americans gone for Peace as does Afghanistan. Amazing how America such a peacemaker moving in and out other sovereign territories generally disadvantaging those they co-opted as allies when they first moved in then deserting them.
Here is the reason Andrew Bolt is little more than a media ape. Any peace on the Syrian border hasn't been Trump's success; it's been entirely Putin's because of Trump's failure. Trump started a war to defeat ISIS and get rid of Assad. He achieved neither.
He has handed the Middle East to Syria, Russia, Iran and Iraq and lost control of the oil and has had to increase troops in Saudi Arabia. In the meantime, he's supported a bloodbath in Yemen.
Israel is now in a less comfortable position as Trump has actually helped unite the Shia in the area. At the same time showing the world how America treats its allies and can't be trusted. The biggest losers have been Israel, the Kurds, and the US reputation as peacemakers. In the meantime, Yemen is a humanitarian disaster in the hands of the US and Saudi's.
Remember when Sam Newman said his disrespect towards Adam Goodes wasnt racially driven but rather the way he spoke to a little girl? What a despicable, hypocritical fucking mess of a human
President Donald Trump asked Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky to “do us a favor, though” immediately after Zelensky told Trump he was grateful for the military aid the U.S. provided to his country, according to a White House summary of a July 25 phone call between the two leaders. That request — and Trump’s implied threat that U.S. military aid to Ukraine was at stake if Zelensky did not comply — has become central to Democrats’ push to impeach the president.
Senior Democrats say they feel increasingly emboldened to impeach Donald Trump after a summary of a phone call between him and the Ukrainian President showed him repeatedly prodding his counterpart to investigate his potential 2020 rival Joe Biden.
Democrats said the five-page summary released by the White House on Wednesday, local time, was far more incriminating than they had expected and showed a President engaged in a mafia boss-like "shakedown" of a foreign leader.
Some 211 Democrats now support impeachment or an impeachment inquiry, according to Politico. That is just seven votes short of the number required to make Trump just the third president in US history to be impeached.
A rare exception was Utah Senator Mitt Romney, who described the contents of the summary as "deeply troubling".
Democrats are hopeful that a whistleblower who filed a complaint about Trump's phone call will testify before Congress this week.
Documents have recently surfaced which cast some doubt over citizenship claims made by Josh Frydenberg's family.

PELL CASE: I WALKED THE ROUTE OF THE 'VICTIM'. IT COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED
Last Sunday I walked the route a man says he took as a 13-year-old choirboy before he was raped by Cardinal George Pell. I timed it. And I am stunned. Did Victoria’s most senior judges make a terrible mistake in their maths when they ruled against Pell last month? The times they gave don't add up. The rape couldn't have happened.
6m ago
As if police, prosecutors and a jury didn't walk, the walk the ultra-right-wing clairvoyant Andrew Bolt did. The same Andrew Bolt who didna need to attend any of the trials that George Pell did along with all those that found him guilty. Bolt just "knows". Why didn't the police simply call Andrew Bolt in and save the State the expense of the trials? He knows that Climate Change isn't happening, Children weren't stolen Muslims are dangerous, and a whole lot of other things like adolescents are irresponsible children that that don't deserve to be heard unless they are of course Bolt's.
Bolt does all of this from a bunker because he's excessively and pathologically shy. Why has Murdoch given Andrew Bolt man-child 20 years of privilege after all Bolt was an obit writer and never a journalist he hated journalism it's ethics, and it's need to verify facts. Bolt much preferred the lazy Walter Mitty world of imagination writing stories "for" people rather than about them.
GOOD THINGS TO TELL A TEENAGER FREAKING ABOUT THE END OF THE WARMING WORLD
COLUMN There was Greta Thunberg, the child messiah of global warming, howling at the United Nations. This hysterical fear is astonishing, and it’s high time adults took control and told these sobbing children that there’s no climate emergency. Here is a list of calming facts that adults - especially the Morrison Government - should repeat every day.
Greta Thunberg and millions walk side by side in public. Andrew Bolt and a few Media persons don't even walk let alone in public.
If protest is hysterical fear, then Andrew Bolt experiences mega-hysteria daily and has done for 30 years as all he does is protest. Teenagers in their millions protest and Bolt and Morrison declare a mass frenzy of fear has taken teenagers by storm. Young people who have like any other generation before them had access to facts and data that Andrew Bolt tries either to deny or hide and call false. As in the case of Pell, he has closed his eyes and walked the walk of faith that declares there is nothing to see here. The kids Andrew Bolt aren't freaking out about the "end" of a warming world like they weren't freaking out when the marched against Vietnam but the irresponsibility, selfishness and total arrogance of their politically manipulated leaders that simply say yes it is but refuse to do anything about it. When idiots like Bolt claim we are healthier for it so don't need to do anything.
Young people marched against Vietnam, and the groundswell grew to a crescendo too, and politicians finally listened. It's happening again, but people are now listening from the top down, and even the elite are divided, and change is happening as Andrew Bolt denies it is. Tony Abbott was voted out of office not by the working class not by teenagers but an elite that has jumped the gutter and won't be jumping back any time soon.
