    Last week, The American Spectator:

    There Is No Path for Donald Trump to Become the Republican Nominee

    It’s no longer a matter of the mainstream media having an agenda to get Trump. He hands them raw meat.

    Trump will continue to lash out … at Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, Mike Pompeo, et. al. Trump will become a pariah in his own party, no longer winning while attacking opponents with humor, but losing while on defense and with venom.

    Many Republican insiders fear that Trump, if he is not the nominee, will run as an independent, thus assuring that the Democrats remain in power. In fact, Trump’s third-party gambit in a general election would help, for example, the reliably conservative Ron DeSantis to be seen implicitly as a triangulated centrist.

    Trump teaser today

    Trump teases ‘major announcement’ set for Thursday “I will be making a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT tomorrow. Thank you,” Trump wrote on TRUTH social

    Wonder what that will be?
    Announcing his running mate?

    ZUBY

    Seeing large swathes of Western women actively campaigning for and celebrating their own erasure and marginalisation saddens, confuses, and amuses me. You really can’t help some people. ‘Democracy’.

    It’s mainly women pushing these goofy ideologies and policy changes.

    Notice that “What is a man?” is not a question anyone asks. Nobody is worried about men’s sports, changing rooms, or anything else. It’s a one way threat. Misogyny is real. But it turns out its proponents are not whom you were told.

    Drunkney Hoggins isn’t suing the commonwealth regarding her unauthorised incursion and/or related “incident” but regarding her treatment following making her allegation of rape. Essentially it’s an ‘unlawful dismissal’ claim with loss of earnings & employment potential ambit claim tacked on.

    The claim is that she was not given the duty of care from her boss after she informed her of the incident. But the facts are that she went to a party, got drunk and then came to the workplace for a non-authorised sleepover. She claims other things happened but that has not been proven, so how can she be compensated with taxpayer dollars for that?

    Were Reynolds/Cash supposed to hold her hand and listen to her story even though she had broken the rules? They have a job to look after the affairs of the country. There was also an election around the corner.

    In today’s Oz, we are told that Reynolds and Cash were told to keep away from the compensation negotiations so they could not defend themselves and what really happened.

    Higgins is paid multi-million (taxpayer) dollars for her version of events?

    The wife had an autopsy performed. Apparently he died due to a dissecting aortic aneurysm.

    Yes. She made it public that it wasn’t the vax.

    Speaking to NBC Sports following her husband’s death, Gounder emphatically claimed it had nothing to do with Covid or the vaccine.

    But…

    Just last week, Infowars wrote about top virologist Dr. Ryan Cole appearing on the Dr. Drew show to warn about the connection between the mRNA Covid-19 vaccine’s spike protein and ruptured aortas.

    “That’s spike protein literally causing the lymphocytes to chew a hole in the aorta,” Dr. Cole explained. “This is the biggest blood vessel in your body, coming off your heart. When that ruptures, you’re gone in minutes.”

    Whatever is concluded about the Wieambilla shooting, extremism experts renew warnings about the still-simmering ashes of pandemic-fuelled conspiracy communities.

    Unfortunately, the extremist loonies like the Trains give those who are the genuine battlers against the Great Reset a bad name.

    Many of us have, for over two and a half years, been questioning the pandemic, masks, vaxxes and lockdowns. For that we have been called “anti-vaxxers” and “conspiracy theorists”. But the facts are slowly being revealed to prove us right. What we said is backed by the real science and medicine.

    Then there are the extremists with mixed-up agendas, romantic tangles and mental problems who also get added to the same category of “anti-vaxxers” and “conspiracy theorists” fighting for freedom. This makes it harder for those living in the real world and against the globalist agenda to be taken seriously.

    If Nathaniel Train had formally cut off ties with his NSW family and friends, he could have disappeared without trace and lived off the grid. The police wouldn’t have been sent for a welfare check on a “missing person” and got killed in the process.

    Sign this petition.

    Petition EN4638
    Disadvantages of Central Bank Digital Currencies (The eAUD)

    Petition Status
    The petition is currently open for signatures

    Petition Reason
    As Australian citizens we should be concerned about the disadvantages of a Central Bank Digital Currency. Traceability: In the case where physical cash is eliminated entirely this eliminates our ability to transact in a fully anonymous manner. Negative Rates: With CBDCs, you cannot withdraw your digital tokens and hold them under the mattress. If there is no option for physical cash this gives central banks ability to implement negative interest rates. Programmability: CBDCs give central banks a unique opportunity to make money “programmable”. For example: Expiration, with a direct relationship with your central bank, CBDCs could permit a currency expiration policy. Your money could be programmed so that if you don’t spend the $5000 in your account by next Saturday, it will expire. Personalised monetary policy: With a bank of Big Data on individual spending habits, coupled with digital identification infrastructure, the central bank will have enough information to tailor its monetary policy personally. For example if it is known that lower earners have a higher propensity to consume, stimulus can be directly delivered to those people. Personalised monetary policy could even become politicised. A government could segment its voters, identify communities where it is behind in polls, and deliver stimulus to these groups.

    Petition Request
    We therefore ask the House to enshrine the use of cash in law.

    Current Signature count: 90507

    Dr Ryan Cole is not a virologist, but a pathologist. His post mortem & laboratory findings are actually more credible & evidence based than the (often theoretical) pronouncements of (pro-C19 vax) virologists.

    The son of Paul Pelosi attacker, David DePape, says his father ‘is not evil,’ and is ‘hardly a right-wing conservative.’ He also implied that the 82-year-old Pelosi may have invited DePape over for sexual activities.

    Speaking with the Daily Mail, Nebosvod ‘Sky’ Gonzalez said “He isn’t a danger to society, I don’t even know if he even attacked Mr. Pelosi. For all that we know he was some sort of sex slave, as Elon Musk pointed out.”

    It would not surprise me if she had a substance use problem for some time and this episode of severe drunkenness brought it to a head and she knew her career was over and she would be just shuffled sideways to minor jobs. She looks 40 not 30.

    Just a hunch, I think alcohol misuse and perhaps prescription drug misuse is at the root of the problem and has been for some time. I wonder if she is seeking help.

    It’s getting close to the time when the Kiev regime pack their suitcases with money and get out of Ukraine. Here’s my prediction, for the next ten years; we’re going to hear pleas from the “Ukraine Government in Exile”, probably based in Monaco, for more money to go and fight the Russians. Some people will continue to donate.
