Andrew Bolt has an innate ability to fuck things up His Ad for the WTA Freedom Conference is really an Ad for the WTA Friedman Conference. We could assume he's smart, but I prefer not to. We can presume it's about what wannabe 1% ers can do to pay less or avoid tax altogether. Bolt shows what a Klutz he is when he's not guarded by his handlers and producers to make things clear. He's encouraging a kumbaya of flower children to turn up. However, it's more conference for those listed or wish they were in the PANAMA PAPERS you can be sure the ATO will be in attendance to see who's there. I notice Bolt hasn't been asked to be a guest speaker but what would Daisy Cousens be offering this group?

The pattern is becoming frighteningly familiar: A white man, radicalized online at alt-right media websites and through social media into hateful white nationalist beliefs built around the anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about “cultural Marxism,” walks into a mass gathering of his selected targets (which can be any of the perceived participants in the conspiracy, including liberals, Jews, Muslims, Latinos, any nonwhite person, LGBTQ folk, even moviegoers) and opens fire.
That was the scenario that played out Saturday, once again, in Poway, California, at the Chabad of Poway Jewish congregation, when a 19-year-old California man named John Earnest burst through the doors and began firing. Though he injured three other people, including a young girl, he only killed one person—Lori Gilbert-Kaye, 60—before his gun jammed and his would-be victims chased him out of the building. He fled in his car and surrendered to police a short while later.

Treasury signs off on budget fantasy forecasts

Scamming Australia
First, it’s the budget of a chronically unpopular government desperately trying to bribe its way back to the office, with little chance of succeeding.
Second, its supposed action is many years – and two or three elections – off in the future. Whatever transpires over the next decade, we can be pretty sure it won’t bear much resemblance to the scenario painted in the budget papers.
Danielle Wood of the Grattan Institute has crunched the numbers on the budget.

Danielle Wood of the Grattan Institute has crunched the numbers on the budget.
But if it’s all harmless bulldust, it can hardly reflect Treasury’s “best professional judgement” unless Treasury’s joined the happy fiction business. And the fact remains that, even more than its predecessors, this is a budget calculated to mislead.

Treasury has made only trivial updates to the most fiscally irresponsible budget since Whitlam.

Andrew Bolt's Blog, 4/1/19; Andrew Bolt's away and it's amazing how wiser heads prevail; Liberal Women; Peter Dutton,







  1. Peter Dutton defends process which saw jailed IS extremist Neil Prakash stripped of citizenship

     Would Dutton ignore the US as easily as he does Fiji? What actually constitutes bullying? Ensuring the Pacific Islands are handed over to the Chinese? Well that began with Tony Abbott the pillock of the Pacific. These Liberals are content to treat all our neighbours as potential enemies rather than friends. "But the head of Fiji's Immigration Department, Nemani Vuniwaqa, told a local newspaper Prakash was not a Fijian citizen.
    "Neil Prakash has not been or is a Fijian citizen," Mr Vuniwaqa told the Fiji Sun.
    "For a child of a Fiji citizen born overseas, the parent has to apply for citizenship for the child to become a Fiji citizen. The department has searched the immigration system and confirms that he has not entered the country nor applied for citizenship since birth."
    It appears Fijian law runs second to Australian. However Dutton has left Prakash stateless .

    The Home Affairs Minister says a government board was satisfied Islamic State extremist Neil Prakash held dual citizenship when it cleared the way for him to be stripped of his Australian passport. But that assessment has been questioned by Fijian officials. (The Age)

 Disordered, unplanned: everyday terrorism is spreading like a virus

 As a result, we’re seeing lines blurring what were once more-distinct. Terrorist and non-terrorist incidents are becoming indistinguishable by their appearance and even their effect. And any given act of violence can be heightened to terrorism by the utterance of a few words as a perpetrator is arrested. If authorities simply declined to pass on those words there would be no obvious political message communicated at all. It’s a far cry from the carefully conceived plot with an easily-discerned symbolic target and some accompanying manifesto shouting at the world. Once there was no mistaking the political seriousness of the terrorist group. Now you need a team of psychologists to figure out if it’s more a rhetorical costume. Waleed Aly

 Wipeout for the Liberals as Andrews surges to victory on huge red wave

Victorians categorically and on mass voted against the Abbott Murdoch Bolt like scaremongering and cultural division and for policies of health, education and infrastructure that matter. This was as much a Murdoch and IPA failure or should I say success when they assisted in implementing the Liberal campaign model adopted by Tony Abbott in 2009. Victorians simply said Nope Nope Nope.

By 8.55pm on Saturday, Opposition Leader Matthew Guy had phoned Mr Andrews to concede defeat and congratulate the re-elected Premier on his victory.

Fueled on crystal meth and psychotic the police were warned picked him up delivered him to the wrong address. Here's a case of white male terror most, not that won't be raised by Andrew Bolt or the LNP about the urgent need to keep us safe from those raised as Christians. It will be written off as just another crime driven by mental ill health as was Jimmy Gargasoulas. What would the headlines of the Murdoch Press done with it if he'd been found to be Muslim? (ODT)

Why did Sky rush to take it down and disguise an obvious fact? (ODT)


“You can say Sky News at night is a Liberal echo chamber,” Murray said. “I will wear that badge if you will also attribute that badge to others.”
It’s a candid admission, but Murray didn’t realise his comments would inadvertently be made public. During a commercial break on Paul Murray Live, he was shooting the breeze – and dropping copious F-bombs – with his guests, the Western Australian Labor MP Matt Keogh and the former New South Wales Liberal leader Kerry Chikarovski.
It was nothing unusual, except that someone left the microphone on and their five-minute chat was uploaded as part of the Paul Murray Live podcast. Until someone realised and took the entire episode down.

Andrew Bolt's Blog,14/11/18; The driving media voice behind Australia's own a Kristallnacht but against Muslims is Andrew Bolt; Two tales in the City; A dog Race;




1h
You have to laugh don't you here's Bolt sitting behind a desk showing us a guy sitting behind a desk both saying basically what Bolt is saying "who the hell are they trying to fool." There is a difference Sheik Omar has an audience of around a hundred and Bolt in the palace of Sky News broadcasts to thousands and yet he's telling us Omran is the most dangerous. Aggressively cherrypicking to prove his case that we are victims of Islamic terrorism in Australia Bolt draws our attention to 5 people over 5 years between Melbourne and Sydney. Yes, 5 cases in a population of 10 million people. So he also throws in, lest we forget, some African gangs for good measure conflating the two for good measure to raise the numbers. However, in the case of the Sudanese gangs, his charlatan of shame intentionally overlooks the fact that the Sudanese are unlike Bolt practising Christians.
Sheik Omran has never been taken to court and never been judged a liar. Andrew Bolt has and more than once apologized under duress in a number of cases in order not to be sued. He's a professional Goebellian grub with 30 years of experience and a track record of commentary based on lies and loose facts. When someone shines the light of truth and reason on an event like the head of the AHRC or commands our respect like Gillian Triggs and says the opposite to Bolt he has to put them down. When people who knew Ali described his mental state as agitated psychotic and sick did Bolt turn to experts in the field of psychiatry no way too dangerous for his presentation he mumbled something about the police people who didn't know the man to say he was sane. Did Bolt actually ID his mystery experts on the mental health of Ali, no!
The fact is Bolt's not interested in understanding what happened nor is Matthew Guy or Scott Morrison here's an opportunity not to be missed to divide the nation on this in Pauline Hanson, Tony Abbott style Xenophobic and Nationalist. Divide us racially, ethnically culturally and religiously for political advantage to grab a few coins and votes. There is nothing new here Bolt's as much a firebrand preacher behind a desk in a uniform as much as Sheik Omran the difference, however, is patently clear the Sheik is defending his community Nationalist Xenophobic attack and Bolt is on the front foot trumpeting an attack and creating a ghost, a mythical monster who isn't there and the statistics, data and evidence collected by reasoned professionals is there to prove it. Not all commentators are Andrew Bolt and politicians.
 "Kristallnacht as a turning point. Kristallnacht changed the nature of the Nazi persecution of Jews from economic, political, and social to physical with beatings, incarceration, and murder; the event is often referred to as the beginning of the Holocaust."
                                      ---------------------------------------------
According to Bolt Aussie Christians take drugs Aussie Muslims take religion but they have ICE in common and psychotic delusions that come with it. They have been sent on a mission and are going down in a ball of fire. The police knew both these young men and watched. Andrew Bolt ignores one completely the MSM prefer two very different tales in one city or is it a tale of two cities? One of a wild kid from Cooper Pedi and one more sinister a Muslim from Africa both with pregnant girlfriends both on drugs. It actually sounds like two Australian kids lives gone very wrong and psychotic. Go to the ICUs of any State Mental Health facilities and you will find more and on the edge.  (ODT)

  Bourke Street: How James "Jimmy" Gargasoulas became the monster who massacred

At his criminal trial, the prosecution and defence agreed that at the time of the Bourke Street massacre Gargasoulas was suffering from a drug-induced psychosis.
The diagnosis is meaningless at law, as Justice Mark Weinberg pointed out to the jury that heard the six charges of murder and 27 charges of reckless conduct endangering life.
‘You should know that delusions brought about by the use of drugs, self-induced drugs, such as ice, provide no defence to any criminal charge and do not affect criminal responsibility,’’ Justice Weinberg said.
Drugs aren't an issue for Andrew Bolt nor is the psychosis they cause.

Bolt's calling for the LNP to "give up" push Bills through to fuck up the ALP before they get into power. Change the nature of all our institutions and stop the next government ruling this country effectively.  It's why we have had no government for the past 5 years.
How typical it's why Victoria's infrastructure program stalled because the Napthine Government signed contracts to build an unwanted freeway which too half a term for this government to unravel.  It allowed Abbott to withhold money promised until Turnbull succumbed to the fact that the people of this state were pissed off. Bolt's calling for the same tactics to be used here again. Do anything from here on in to give the next LNP Opposition leader an advantage to sink his teeth into isn't that Bolt hopes is his dog back Tony Abbott all tactics and no principles?  Fix the race

Not for the first time do I wonder whether police are focussing more on tackling the meek rather than confronting the dangerous. An odd contrast on today's front page.

 Bolt knows what's right ho ho. Attempting a bit of Bevis Blair humour here Butthead having a go at the Keystone Cops. The elite police should be on traffic control and traffic on Ice control and Jimmy G. Yes if you a cop you should be aware you will be called Keystones by Bolt. Police should be trained not in divisions but to simply do it all. Traffic, drugs, homicide intelligence no difference Bolt just dumb cops one and all. How our authorities must love Andrew Bolt. Why wasn't he charged for GBH in Carlton and why isn't there a law of GBH of the mouth now? Andrew Bolt really brushes Gargasoulas off as a bit of a joke that Jimmy should have been stopped by window washers even if he wasn't using his phone but not so that Muslim Ali guy he should have been shot at the traffic lights before he got to Bourke St. That's a Bolt thought bubble for you.

 All this coming from the guy who claims women as "fright bats",  that he was a "minder to a belly dancer" that mocked the concept of a Sudanese Beauty Contest and tried to heavy Miranda Devine on radio and was put in his box.  The man who talks of his family as luggage he has to take on holiday and resents being the only breadwinner in the family. Why is it the greatest media misogynists are so ready to project their own crimes onto others?

 All it takes is single cases 5 in fact among a population of 10 million to accelerate the spending on National Security and surveillance. We have never in the history of this country been more watched and our private lives assailed than now. Billions have been spent all under the guise of protecting us from "terror plot's". The truth is not so considerate when seeing how these Security measures are actually used.Matthew Guy's $89m terror pledge includes ankle tags and CBD ban for suspects
Matthew Guy's $89m terror pledge includes ankle tags and CBD ban for suspects

 A 2018 U.N. report highlighted this trend of branding human rights defenders, activists, and experts as “terrorists,” in Algeria, Egypt, the Philippines, and elsewhere. The Center for Strategic and International Studies has also noted that several countries besides Nicaragua have used compliance with FATF counterterrorism measures to justify passing restrictive laws in recent years.
“From Brazil and Nicaragua to France and the U.K. to Kyrgyzstan and Australia, we’re seeing clampdowns that make it all too easy to label protesters, journalists, activists, political opponents, and others that the authorities want to neutralize as ‘terrorists’ and ‘extremists,’” said Letta Tayler, a senior researcher on terrorism at Human Rights Watch. “We’ve seen a dangerous global spread of draconian counter-terrorism laws since the September 11, 2001 attacks. … Because the word terrorism is associated with atrocities, it’s now easy to get public buy-in to responses that break the law in the name of security.”

Andrew Bolt's Blog,13/11/18; You can't save us from what doesn't exist; However you can use it for personal advantage and both Pollie and Media do; When Morrison is doing it wrong he asks for more;






  This is now our fifth terrorist attack by refugees. What are we doing to ourselves? My editorial on The Bolt Report. Bolt's ad for Bolt himself.

What a prick Bolt is. Understanding is not at all a necessary goal for him.
 Ali had been here for over 2 decades and was a Naturalised Australian he wasn't a "refugee" any longer but an Australian according to each and every definition of what it means to be a citizen. He was as much an Australian as Andrew Bolt is.
 3% of us suffer from the severe mental health conditions and less than 1% are at times are certified as involuntary patients when considered a danger to themselves or others. Mentally ill Australians generally aren't referred to by their previous Nationalities or their religious affiliations. Dimitri Gargasoulos the Bourke st mass murderer is an example and he killed 6 people and wasn't referred to as the Greek Orthodox or as a terrorist. We know he was in a psychotic state and claimed to have been hearing voices at the time. His defence will be his psychiatric condition at the time. Bolt fails to make reference to the fact that a far greater number of people were killed in the past 5 years by Australians in psychotic states far, far more than just his 5 Muslims grouped from very different origins and cultures. For him being a Muslim is central tenet despite the fact that the statistical significance 5 in 10 million or even if only Muslims are considered 5 in some 300 000.
Bolt's the son of immigrants who his hero Trump gives him no birthright claim to citizenship so Bolt's suggestion 'we' saved Ali as if Bolt has some significantly different status to Ali in being an Australian Ali was as much a part of Bolt's 'we' as Bolt. To say he wasn't amplifying Bolt's exclusiveness, racism and his denial of our Constitution. The fact that Ali had a mental illness was really the only distinguishing difference between them. However many would believe Bolt also has a serious issue with delusion as well. The proof can be found in his opinionated narratives that have little or no relevance to the socially shared reality in which we live. Andrew Bolt has been witnessed to have committed attempted GBH on two pranksters who practically joked him in Carlton. A video showed he could be as much a danger to others too he simply wasn't charged.
 So 5 cases over a 5 year period shared between two cities regarded as the most livable in the world with a combined population of 10 million people stand as Bolt's statistical evidence that we as a country is in dire threat of domestic terrorism by the Muslims we have allowed into the country. Anyone of them without certainty could be our next attackers. If that's not deluded paranoia I don't know what is? Three of the cases if not all of them revealed a severe degree of mental impairment Haider, Man Monis and Ali were by definition ill and certifiable. Furthermore, Bolt never mentions that far, far more cases of murder and violence have been committed by people in mentally psychotic states in the same period and weren't Muslim who have been ignored by Bolt, a high degree of Christians among them.  In Ali's case, there wasn't even a cry of Allahu Akbar yet Bolt hasn't a problem suggesting the primary cause of murder in this instance was radical Islam. Why isn't radical Christian if the shoes on the other foot after all murder is radical if intended and we hear of it happening daily.
If there's a lesson to be learned from this tragic circumstance it is our approach to mental illness hidden in most part from us all. An illness unlike any other that has family and friends witness it for some time even years but without reporting it until it breaks out in a cathartic event for all to see. What we do know is Media and Politicians declare themselves the owners of the narratives in these moments particularly when the need to understand what happened is abandoned for use. Use it can have often for profit and or politics which is evident at the moment. 
Matthew Guy is immediately advertising fake statistics on crime I might add. Bolt is declaring the nation's faux danger anger and necessary Islamophobia and Morrison is back to dividing Australians with Abbott's divisive Team Australia catcall of them and us. While an Italian not that long ago regarded a wog, a dago lies dead and is about to be given a State Funeral for being unlucky to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Everybody seems to find a pot of gold in this event that is a tragedy to two families. All, however, if seen through the prism of self-interest makes Kafkaesque use of Ali rather than attempt any forensic empathetic effort to understand Ali and what happened. Accompanying this failure is to proffer only negative opinions and generalisations of the whole of those who practice and even don't practice Islam grouping some 54 plus different cultures and tarring them with a single brush. Declaring "them" really ordinary Australians as potentially dangerous to a mythical "us". The challenge for Victorian politicians in wake of Bourke Street tragedy

 

Morrison wants Muslim leaders to do more to prevent terrorism, but what more can they do?


There is an election around the corner just watch Andrew Bolt go tooth and nail in vilifying Islam as the fundamentally most dangerous system of belief in this country. The same was once said about the Catholics as their loyalty couldn't be guaranteed to Australia before the Pope and the Vatican. That was proffered back then by the ultra-conservative ruling elite to ensure they can turn traditional left-wing voters by nothing else but a sense of fear. Bolt's not original we have seen it before and it was disgusting and cowardly then and it is just as cowardly today. The conservatives have even taken us to war to retain power wars that we have all lost and left to the Labor Party to pull us out of. Andrew Bolt is parroting the right-wing movements elsewhere and in the English speaking world he's been employed and given the platform by Rupert Murdoch to do it. What relief, only the right-wing is listening to him.  Australian Muslims should be aware of how dangerous Andrew Bolt is he's, in fact, searching jabbing insulting in the hope of pushback in the form of sensation from anywhere he might generate it. In this case what he's promises isn't original it's been shown before but Bolt with his production team will do everything to sensationalise it.

 Game Over: Even Oil Giant BP is betting on Electric Car Boom

London (AFP) – British energy major BP on Thursday bought the nation’s largest electric vehicle charging firm, as it bets on booming demand in the coming decades.
The announcement mirrors similar moves by Anglo-Dutch rival Shell and France’s Total to expand into the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) which experts forecast will surge in popularity.

Another nail in the coffin of Bolt's struggling arguments. BP, Shell, AGL, Origin the biggest names in the business are pouring money into an alternative future and Bolt is the Dutch boy whose got his appendage stuck in an imaginary dam as the real one burst ages ago.


France Charges 10 White Nationalist Terrorists in Plot to Blow up Muslims

France Charges 10 White Nationalist Terrorists in Plot to Blow up Muslims


French authorities have charged 10 suspected far-right extremists in connection with an alleged plot to attack Muslims

The nine men and one woman aged 32 to 69 were arrested in raids across France on Saturday.
They appeared before a judge on Wednesday evening and were charged with “criminal terrorist conspiracy”, the source said.
Several were also charged with violations of firearms laws and the manufacture or possession of explosive devices.
Police have linked the ten to a little-known group called Action des Forces Operationnelles (Operational Forces Action), which urges French people to combat Muslims, or what it calls “the enemy within”.
The suspects had an “ill-defined plan to commit a violent act targeting people of the Muslim faith”, a source close to the investigation told AFP on Monday.

Terrorism has no religion in a secular state. Vilification has no place in a secular state either and Bolt is a professional vilifier whose tools of trade are false facts, provocation and incitement to violence.









When Malcolm Turnbull became leader of the opposition in 2008, he felt the need to downplay his wealth. He no longer bothers.


Middle-income Australia has a new look, and it's not pretty | Greg Jericho | Business | The Guardian

 Let us be honest: Australia is a nation whose politicians are for the most part drawn from similar socio-economic (and education) backgrounds, covered by journalists who (including myself) come from similar backgrounds, and where any interruption to this course of events – such as when Ricky Muir was elected to the Senate – is greeted with a barely disguised level of condescension that someone not university educated or white collar has deigned to enter the sanctum.It is a situation of course not solely devoted to income – gender and especially race are also major factors at play. In positions of power, we remain a very white, relatively well-paid male nation (and I speak as one of that group).

  A haven for paedophiles: The ultra-Orthodox settlement where Malka Leifer hides

 Atop the shadow-cast hills at the northern end of the West Bank, in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish settlement of Emmanuel, abusers of children have found a safe haven.
Malka Leifer, the former Melbourne school principal and accused child molester, came to live here in 2016 after an Israeli judge found she was mentally unfit to face extradition to Australia. And here, even though she is wanted by Victoria Police on 74 counts of alleged sexual assault and rape involving girls, one resident claims Leifer was able to continue abusing children, including his own teenage daughter, without consequence.

Andrew Bolt has been very vocal about Paedophilia in the Australian Indigenous Community and very silent about the same in White Western Christian Culture. His silence amplifies his bias, ethnocentricism and racism when he ignores events like this. His silence is a palpable denial that the crime is far from an indigenous one. Bolt's Judeo-Christian Culture which he claims protects children seems to fail dramatically when it comes to this Orthodox community. It's customs seem extremely allied to Islamic orthodoxy as well.
 Daniel says the women carry most of the burden. “They get the welfare money, for having around 10 children, and they sometimes work hard jobs simultaneously. The men do nothing, just pretend to study the Bible.”

"Leifer is currently behind bars awaiting the outcome of her extradition trial. Her lawyer is arguing – as Leifer has argued for years – that she is mentally unfit to face trial or to be returned to Australia. That case is bogged down in the Israeli courts.
Defence lawyer, Yehuda Fried said he believed Leifer would be released at her next bail hearing on Sunday, which she has been ordered to attend despite pleading psychosis.
Daniel has no doubt that, if she is freed, Leifer will be back in Emmanuel.
“It’s Sodom and Gomorrah in Emmanuel,” he says.
“Child abuse, paedophilia… it’s rampant.”"
