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.
So many highlights from the execrable performance of Prime Minister (still!) Scott Morrison at the National Press Club today:
- admitting he doesn’t know the price of household items like “a loaf of milk”
-admitting
that relentless disasters have befallen this country under his party’s
leadership but insisting that voting him out would mean Australians were
just “giving up”
- being very proud of himself for having met an apprentice once
-
a truly terrifying insistence that there is way too much independent
research still going on at Australia’s battered universities, that he’s
planning to hand even more of this taxpayer-funded resource to
unaccountable multinational corporations
- lots of meaningless numbers strung together with the claim this meant Australia was thriving (not feeling it myself, really)
- praising the overworked aged care workers he won’t give an actual pay rise to
- the claim that he works for the Australian people every day (bonjour, Hawaii!)
…
and on and on it went, in that sweaty, aggressive tone he uses to
communicate we are not a nation of adults but a Sunday school classroom
of misbehaving children.
Amidst
all these precious jewels, the absolute hands-down thumper, however,
was learning what his Liberal Party colleagues Gladys Berejiklian and an
Unnamed Current Cabinet Minister (!) really think of him.
I’ve
never thought I had much in common with any members of the Morrison
cabinet or the former premier of New South Wales, but count me in for
the unity ticket on this one.
This is what the man SACKED twice by NZ and the LNP Government in Australia had to say about his record and we are soley expected to believe him because he doesn't lie
The constant attacks on Grace Tame and the indifferent shrug
towards Minister Richard Colbeck’s disgraceful conduct highlight media
bias in this country, writes Paul Begley.
Are we making variants healthier and stronger smarter and more virulent? If so to what degree are antivaxxers right and we are wrong? Is this an excercise in wealth creation? Why hasn't Covid spread faster throughout Africa?
The BA.2 subvariant of the Omicron coronavirus variant, which
has quickly taken over in Denmark, is more transmissible than the more
common BA.1 and more able to infect vaccinated people, a Danish study
has found. The study, which analysed coronavirus infections in more than
8500 Danish households between December and January, found that people
infected with the BA.2 subvariant were roughly 33 per cent more likely
to infect others, compared to those infected with BA.1.
“I don’t even see the likeness. Well ok, I do, but that’s not the point".
One might well ask why inappropriate sex by conservatives is regarded as an entitlement and is bringing Politicians in America and Australia down but could not even touch Donald Trump?
Tucker Carlson just throws Gaetz under the bus for revealing what Tucker denies. Will Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch find the need to protect him from Gaetz's allegation? Will Gaetz reveal more?
Just hours after news broke that Matt Gaetz is under investigation for federal child trafficking ,
he decided it would be a super great idea to go on Tucker Carlson to
read a carefully worded script kind of denying the charges, but also
bringing up more allegations that were not even public yet.

News host Andrew Bolt says today's eight new COVID-19 cases recorded in
Queensland prove the Palaszczuk government is "not doing the basics to
keep the state safe and open for business".
"If I were a Queenslander I would be absolutely furious today with that
state government," Mr Bolt said.
"Eight new virus cases today. You may think, see, the Palaszczuk
government was right to lock down Brisbane for three days.
"But this proves something else. It proves that this government is not
doing the basics to keep the state safe and open for business.
"Five of the eight new cases are people who were at a party attended by a
nurse and her sister who were later found to be infected.
"These five people I presume were already traced and isolated when the
nurse tested positive. So this lockdown should have made no difference
with these cases."
Andrew
Bolt is the guy that if he has a small oil leak wont bother doing
anything about it because it just might cost him some time and money, so
he forges on despite the potential damage he might cause. His risk
becomes collective yours and ours but not his profit. Till one day his
brakes fail with his whole family killed. He then,along with others,
calls it an unfortunate accident which we all need to pay for. A risk
for the sake of a few less dollars could have saved the chaos.
However,
the driver isn't Bolt. He is worse because he's actually the shit
sitting on the drivers shoulder telling him to forget the leak get on
with it, go to work because it's essential and you will save money. Bolt
is the least least essential part of the scenario whose life style
remains no just uninterrupted benefited by the risk being encouraged.
Bolt's advice is of no value to any of us in terms of health and safety.
When after 8 months those who had contracted Covid-19 still have
symptoms.
His
is feigned, fake paranoia, and it doesn't ensure our safety physically
or economically but it extends our risk. A risk unshared, because he's
safe protected by his non essential work and unproductive social status.
Nevertheless he carries with him a psychological disease which we all
share and and have worn for centuries. He's a man of self-interest and
no values and no responsibility to any collective.He believes he's a Capitalist when he's not.

economist Alan Moran says Australia is "going broke by being woke" for
not "embracing" coal as the cheapest form of electricity - unlike
China, we are negating any chance of once again becoming an "economic
superpower".
“We are being forced to reduce our competitiveness … at a time when
China is becoming more and more affluent as a result of its uses of coal
or the cheapest forms of electricity – and we are going broke by being
woke," he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“The cheapest power for most countries is coal.
“We have the best coal in the world – the cheapest in the world. We
should have the lowest cost of electricity in the world – we did until
recently - but we have basically undermined this through our domestic
policies.
“Basically, coal is the cheapest form of electricity we have and we can
be again an economic superpower – but only if we embrace this.”
Woke is used as an insult used by opponents of green and other movements often to mock or belittle supporters of such
causes. It's a stolen term used mockingly or sarcastically by people like Bolt and Moron who are funded by News Corp to promote division and hate on those that actually shine a light on the data that informs us of what it is we are doing wrong.
Today there are words these assholes can't steal and can't apply in the same way because it reveals who and what they really are. The woke however can. "Nigger" was once used by the likes of people with Bolt's mindset as was "cunt" now only acceptable words among black people and women who are truley and unlike Bolt woke. With respect to woke women they accurately apply it to men like Bolt and women who also have his mindset.
Alan
Moran was once a working member of the IPA for who he collated a book
'Facts About Climate Change' Andrew Bolt had an article in that book in
which he was quoted as a world authority on the subject. That alone goes
to show how untrustworthy Alan Moran the lobbyist for the mining
industry is and the forever quid pro quo relationship these two climate
change denying coal brothers have with Murdoch's interests in promoting
fossil fuels.
Firstly
coal is not any longer the cheapest form of electricity. Solar wind and
batteries are. Secondly China isn't interested in Australian coal and
is divesting of it's use on a massive scale. Their lack of doing
business with Australia has been largely based on the press and Murdoch
media's propaganda war against them. Bolt's while a Sinophobic
Xenophobic maniac expects China to trade with us? Ask China what they
think of Murdoch.
There
is nothing woke about protest or divestment in coal in fact it's now a
recognized and globally accepted Institutional transitional process.
Coal can't turn us into a "super power" we are last on the list of OECD
manufacturing countries.
What we have here are two failures to communicate caught verbally masturbating in public.
Sky
News Andrew Bolt says "the shape of the next world-wide conflict is
taking place in front of your eyes" as dictatorships, terror regimes,
and autocracies come together "to resist a democratic West that is
getting weaker".
"Last week showed us that there is a new axis of evil. A fast-forming
alliance between countries that don't believe in democracy, aimed at
countries like ours, that do," Mr Bolt said.
"Last week were three very significant meetings that should scare us.
The first – a meeting between the Russian and Chinese foreign ministers,
where both attacked the United States, which Russian President Vladimir
Putin then denounced in a national broadcast as racist and genocidal.
"This is Russia – which murders democracy activists – getting closer to
China, a dictatorship which bans democracy, and both telling the west –
your day is done.
"The second meeting - Between China and Islamic fascist Iran, promising
economic cooperation so Iran can survive the economic sanctions put on
the west to stop it building an atomic bomb."
Mr Bolt said it was the same message to democracies in the west that it
could not tell these dangerous autocracies what to do.
"And the third meeting - between Russian military bosses and the new
military dictators of Myanmar, who, at that very same time were shooting
dead hundreds of democracy protesters. Even children are being killed,"
he said.
"Our top general last week condemned Myanmar's military for murdering
civilians, but Russia's deputy defence minister last week got a medal
from the Myanmar army's chief for supporting these bloody dictators."
The
Democratic West was becoming weaker if we consider America being it's
center and role model. Australia has been increasingly morphing into
being it's 51rst state. The Moirrison LNP with it's lack of independance
firmly attached itself to the Trump presidency. That Democratic West
Presidency became over a 4 year period Russia's most valuable asset.
Trump had been a Russian sleeper financially boosted by them for years
watched and cultivated since the he'd married Ivana.
The
Russians Trump and the Republicans all had the same goal divide and
create chaos in the USA. It's a great strategy Russia the land of
Oliagarch autocrats it makes their stability and authoritarianism look
good. Trump befriended Russia and Russia assisted Trump who drove a
wedge between the US and China bringing Russia, China, Nth Korea, Iran,
Venezuela Cuba Syria closer together. Trump created the biggest divide
in the US since the civil war and the biggest in the world since the
cold war. He was the Western version of Khrushchev totally eratic and
unpredictable.
Not
so long ago Bolt was making out that China and Russia were a massive
military threat to the world. He's great at bullshit and exaggeration
because together neither Russia nor China, put together, have the
capacity of the US. Chin's billions of dollars investment in their Belt
Road Initiative says otherwise. Bolt has for the moment dropped that
line of propaganda. However he fails to look back and tell us who
brought us here to where we are today in just four short years none
other than Russia's favorite President Donald. Whose footsteps Scott
Morrison, the IPA and News Corp are still following today.The
damage done is enormous but it certainly wasn't done by Democrats and
is currently being done by by our own government's intentio to arm up
and manufacture.
The
Daily Telegraph's Senior cricket writer Ben Horne has spoken to Sky
News about cricketer Steve Smith and whether the Australian batsman may
again be captain of the national side in the future.
"Cricket Australia has a decision to make," Mr Horne told Sky News host
Andrew Bolt.
"They should address it soon because it's going to creep up when it
comes to the point when a change of captain will need to happen".
Steve Smith and two other Australian Test players had been banned in
2018, with Smith stripped of the national captaincy, after the trio were
involved in a ball-tampering scandal during a test match against South
Africa that year.
Following his one-year suspension, Steve Smith has since returned to
form with the national side in various formats of the game.
Bolt's
not an advocate of a clean slate after you have committed an offense
and done the time. He believes in punishment but not rehabilitation. How
many times in the past has he condemned people , others for their past
mistakes and declared them "persona non grata" for life. Especially if
they show left-wing attitudes, are Muslim or African.
Most
Australians yes most Australians are far more forgiving than Andrew
Bolt. Yet he says he's the exception and should be treated differently
that his past mistakes deserve to be forgotten. He's been convicted of
cheating and nothing and happened. He's found to be a liar and nothing
happened. He's defamed, concocted false CVs and still maintains a holier
than thou attitude. Of course Steve Smith should be made captain he's
served his time. However Bolt wouldn't agree if Smith was a leftie, gay,
black or Muslim.
