A very special note to Edward in Ohio, and Rusty somewhere in Australia.

I checked the post box for the first time in weeks.  Smiling!

A nice surprise from both of you.

— Thank you!

    Testimony in US Congress, yesterday (or day before).

    Observed entrance wound in temple, exit back of the head.
    The first throat shot was fatal.
    Magic bullet not possible.
    He or other attending physicians never questioned by Warren Commission … (clue).
    All told to never discuss what they saw with anyone, including each other.
    Observed LBJ calmly giving orders on a phone unguarded in a side room and wondered ‘why is he unprotected, this could be a coup against the US, how do they know the danger has passed?’

    Amazing this fellow is still alive.
    62 years, and I don’t think he’s ever been asked to testify in an open authoritative forum.

    I shall refrain myself from my usual pattern of stating the usual obvious conspiratorial conclusions.

    How the Deep State Went Viral
    Debbie Lerman

    What if the US Covid pandemic response was not a public health response run by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), CDC or any other public health body. Instead, it was a biodefence or counter-terrorism response, run by the Pentagon, National Security Council and Department of Homeland Security.
    That is the question at the core of my new book The Deep State Goes Viral: Pandemic Planning and the Covid Coup (published by the Brownstone Institute).
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Deep-State-Goes-Viral-Pandemic/dp/1630692999

    When I continued to dig, I found that the same pattern was followed in many countries around the world. The pandemic response, according to all available evidence, was implemented according to globally planned and directed protocols.

    …if it had been a regular public health response, Covid would not have differed from any of the viral epidemics or pandemics of the last century. The public would have been told to remain calm, wash hands frequently and stay home if sick. Public health agencies would have tracked clusters of severe disease and treated them accordingly. This would have happened at different times in different locations. Most people would barely have been aware that there was a novel virus circulating among them.

    Instead, the response to Covid was the exact opposite. The media and public health agencies whipped the population into levels of panic massively disproportionate to the threat actually posed by the virus. Everyone was convinced that the only way to ‘beat the virus’ was to lock down the whole world and wait for a never-before-tested or manufactured vaccine.

    As explained by a generally unknown civil-servant-turned-author named Michael Lofgren who, according to an NPR report, popularised the term ‘Deep State’ in his 2014 Anatomy of the Deep State, the Deep State can be understood as “a hybrid of corporate America and the national security state”, which constitutes a “government within the government” that “operates according to no Constitutional rules or any constraint by the governed”.

    According to Lofgren’s definition… “the military-industrial complex, Wall Street – they’re both about money, sucking as much money out of the country as they can, and control: corporate control and political control”. Plus, I would add, this is now happening not just on a national, but on a global, level.

    Almost All ‘Extreme’ Temperature Highs in UK Now Being Recorded at Junk Sites with Massive Possible Errors

    I looked at the last nine days of Met Office records to Sunday May 18th and can reveal that nearly nine out of 10 local ‘extreme’ daily temperature highs were posted in junk Class 4 and super junk Class 5 sites with internationally-recognised ‘uncertainties’ of 2°C and 5°C respectively.

    As we have shown many times at the Daily Sceptic, this super-heated data is fed into the mainstream to promote the political needs of Net Zero.

    From The Spectator

    The Alarmist Cult split The Liberal Party

    Make no mistake, net zero is communism, or, at the very least, global socialism. There are no longer any environmental arguments whatsoever that justify Australia restructuring its entire economy, its industry, its manufacturing, its transportation, its farming, its construction industry and everyday lifestyles in order to remove all carbon emissions from our continent. (There never was, but that’s a different story). But that is the net zero by 2050 plan. It is a government-mandated collectivist program to redistribute power and wealth across every aspect of Australian society on purely left-wing ideological grounds. Bluntly, modern communism.

    The industrialised world is largely abandoning the net zero scam as economic reality sinks in. The only people making money out of this ‘industry’ (apart from the Chinese), which relies on massive government funding, both explicit and hidden in household and corporate power bills, are those in a position to milk the subsidies systems. As such, it has become important for those subsidies to be maintained at all costs, and that in turn means guaranteeing enough members of parliament are either ideologically or financially wedded to the renewables mantra.

    Almost certainly, most Liberal MPs who voted for Sussan Ley (the ‘moderate’) as leader are in favour of net zero. And equally certainly most who voted for Angus Taylor are sceptical of it.

    …unless the Liberal party divorces itself from its climate ‘moderates’, it’s finished.

      Note that the Liberal Party’s far Left faction misleadingly call themselves “moderates” when they are actually Leftist regressives infiltrated into the party and dominating and sabotaging it. It’s been like that for decades now.

      “Sussan Ley is remaking the Liberal Party to reflect modern Australian values, which could deliver a seismic shift from old Coalition policies…Sussan Ley says she will work with the government on changes bitterly opposed by the Nationals during the previous term of parliament….Liberals expect Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s portfolio of government efficiency to be scrapped over comparisons to Elon Musk’s department in the Trump administration. “We are un-DOGEing the Liberal Party,” one senior Liberal who asked to remain anonymous”

      In other words the Socialist have taken control of the Liberal party and will tuck it under Labor’s wing. Capitalism is soooo passe these days. There is certainly no need for a Govt Dept that may challenge Govt borrowing and spending!

        I think the future of the Liberal Party lies with a coalition with Labor. Their policies are extremely similar except foreign policy where Labor supports Gazan terrorists and Liberals don’t.

        Nationals need to dump Net Zero and the Paris Accords loudly and proudly and develop enough moral clarity to promote those and other conservative values.

        Jacinta Price made a huge mistake moving to the Liberals. She is a solid conservative and the Liberal Party is not.

        If they can do that, they can form an alliance with the conservative parties like Trumpets, Libertarian, One Nation, Family First etc..

        My friends, all of whom are conservatives, are very despondent about the present situation and Labor likely being in power for at least another 6 to 9 years, after which there won’t be much left to save.

    Another machine we’ll come to depend upon and won’t be able to live without. I can’t even imagine the need this thing is designed to fulfil.

    OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Wants to Put an Al ‘Companion Device’ in Every Home

    …a device that will be fully aware of a user’s surroundings and life, unobtrusive, and able to rest comfortably in one’s pocket or on a desk. This AI companion is envisioned as a third core device, alongside a MacBook Pro and an iPhone.

    The goal is to release the device by late next year, with plans to ship an unprecedented 100 million units faster than any company has ever achieved with a new product.

      …a device that will be fully aware of a user’s surroundings and life,

      Totalitarian governments would love this under their control.

      Essentially it’s the the Telescreen from 1984. However with universal application. In 1984 the Proles didn’t get Telescreens as they were deemed sufficiently indoctrinated not to rebel or be a problem. Only members of the Inner Party and Outer Party got them. A situation much as we have now.

      Ironically, Goolag AI says:

      A telescreen is a two-way television screen that monitors individuals in dystopian settings like Oceania in George Orwell’s 1984. It is a symbol of constant surveillance and the erosion of privacy in totalitarian regimes. In the novel, telescreens are ubiquitous, often found in every home and business, and can be used for both monitoring citizens and broadcasting propaganda.

      Propaganda and Surveillance:
      They are a primary tool for spreading Party propaganda and keeping citizens under constant surveillance, ensuring they adhere to the Party’s ideology.

      Unavoidable Presence:
      Telescreens are almost never turned off and are found everywhere, creating a sense of constant observation and fear.

      Symbol of Totalitarian Control:
      They represent the Party’s absolute control over its citizens, as the telescreen allows for a constant monitoring of behavior and a chilling fear of being watched, even when alone.

    A lesson in “survorship bias”. Copied.

    During WWII, the military analyzed the bullet holes on returning fighter planes to determine where to add more armor. The red dots in the image show where the planes that made it back were most commonly hit.

    Initially, the military considered reinforcing the areas with the most bullet holes — the wings, tail, and outer fuselage. But statistician Abraham Wald pointed out a critical insight:

    These are the planes that survived. The hits they sustained were not fatal.

    Wald argued that the areas with few or no bullet holes — like the engine and cockpit — were the critical weak points. Planes hit in those areas didn’t return, so those missing data points were crucial.

    This story teaches us survivorship bias — the logical error of focusing only on the people or things that survived a process while overlooking those that didn’t, often leading to false conclusions.

    It’s a classic case in statistics and decision-making, still taught widely today.

      I mentioned this story a while back too and it shows how easily “experts” can get it totally wrong…
      Like the Vietnam war where soldiers arrive at MASH units with serious blood loss.
      Doctor: major blood loss, so let’s give them blood, right?
      WRONG! Too often doing that killed the patients.
      The sudden pressure increase ruptures the fragile repair membranes forming to seal wounds. Game over. Time is the missing factor. Blood, yes but not straight away.

      David,

      Too much of the wrong information may not be very helpful. Similarly

      Artificial Intelligence (AI) or what was previously the an ability to identify similar images was caught short when diagnosing skin cancers. The software determined a cancer to be identified by the markings of the skin around the suspected growth as an indication this growth was malignant. Quite logical when you understand that the majority of photographs the database contained had ink marks for orientation and dimension around the diagnosed cancer. Logically anything thus marked and then photographed would have a signifcant weight towards being a cancer.

      Machine learning and deep learning are branches of AI that deal with statistical modeling and inference, which progressively learn from data fed into them to predict desired objectives and characteristics.

    Another area where CSIRO wastes money and resources is “maritime emissions”.

    What are they going to do, reintroduce sailing ships? Well, not yet, but they do want to run ships on hydrogen, ammonia and methanol.

    Australia and Singapore support research projects to reduce maritime emissions

    26 March 2025

    Australia and Singapore have selected eight projects for funding as part of a $20 million initiative to help reduce emissions in the maritime sector.

    The Australia-Singapore Initiative on Low Emissions Technologies (ASLET) supports the objectives of the Singapore and Australia Green and Digital Shipping Corridor (GDSC), which will help accelerate decarbonisation and digitisation of shipping routes between Singapore and Australia.

    It is jointly delivered by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia’s national science agency, and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) on behalf of the governments of Australia and Singapore.

    The ASLET grant opportunity was launched in July 2024 to support projects that will help accelerate the deployment and uptake of zero or near-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission technologies for maritime and port operations.

    A total of 32 applications were received from universities, research institutes and industry based in Australia and Singapore.

    The eight projects selected for funding cover a range of activities, including innovations in the supply, transport, storage, dispensing and maritime utilisation of hydrogen, ammonia and methanol, as well as safety and environmental monitoring, and electrification.

    A very good article.

    Under TRUMP, the US is returning its nuclear industry to a “can do” approach, not a “can’t do” one.

    https://newsletter.doomberg.com/p/actuarial-examinations

    The concept of building nuclear-powered data centers on military bases is—to state it frankly—brilliant. Presumably, Trump will lean heavily on the authority afforded to the president by the Defense Production Act, among other justifications. As we have long chronicled in these pages, China is much further along in the AI race than most believe. And not by coincidence, the country is also set to surpass the US in installed nuclear power capacity:

      In essence the article is about the removal of the linear no-threshold (LNT) model by the TRUMP administration which is used as a weapon by the NRC to refuse permission for nuclear reactors and it refuses permission for nearly all reactor proposals.

      The LNT is said to be unscientific and says that “exposure to radiation, no matter how minute, as both dangerous and cumulative”.

          Thanks Ian. I mentioned it in my article at:

          https://www.siliconchip.com.au/Issue/2022/April/Geiger+Counters+and+Radiation

          Cigarette radiation exposure

          Fertilisers contain naturally occur-
          ring radium. This decays into radon
          and sticks to the hairs called trichomes
          beneath tobacco leaves. The radon
          decays into lead-210 and polonium-
          210, with polonium-210 being more
          hazardous. The radiation in tobacco
          depends to a certain extent on the soil
          in which the plant was grown and the
          origin of the fertiliser.

          Over time, these isotopes accumu-
          late in smokers’ lungs, causing radi-
          ation damage on top of the damage
          from the smoke. A typical smoker is
          exposed to 40 times the annual radia-
          tion dose limit imposed on radiation
          workers (see http://www.bmj.com/rapid-response/2011/10/28/radioactivity-cigarettes).

            This living thing is a bit hard to maintain. Decades ago (when the CSIRO did stuff for the good of all) we received a Radon gas detection device. We lived in an area that had granitic soils and the test device was two fold, first what was the level of radon gas in the district and two was our house capable of “pooling” this gas and thereby present the occupants with a potential health issue. Received a bit of feed back about a year after the device was sent back. Radon gas was detected, the levels inside our house were well within acceptable limits.

          Eng_Ian,

          The ending may surprise you.

          I’m a bit doubtful of the claim. Not sure what an “average smoker” is these days, but the 160,000 μSv/year doesn’t seem to go with this paper:

          The sum of the effective doses of the three radionuclides varied from 151.9 to 401.3 μSv/y (average 251.5 μSv/y)

          Admittedly that’s not based on lead and polonium which he specifically referred to, but they are mentioned in that paper and you’d wonder at all the work squeezing out a lousy 401.3 μSv/y if there’s already 160,000 μSv/y accounted for by two elements. It’s less than a rounding error.

          40

          • #
            Robert Swan

            Looking again at that paper we do get *their* take on the Polonium and Lead radiation dose:

            The mean values of the annual effective dose for smokers (one pack per day) were estimated to be 193 and 251 μSv y−1 from 210Po and 210Pb, respectively.

            That’s quite a long way short of 160,000 μSv y−1. Did the Veritassiam referenced researchers get their tobacco plants from Chernobyl?

            Perhaps I should mention that, apart from a bit of schoolboy rebellion, I’ve never been a smoker, but I find the anti-smokers much more worrying than the smokers.

            I thought it was odd too. Else, a tobacco shop would be off the charts too. Think about, 1 pack a day, that’s 365 packets. How many are in a shop?

            Or…. of course, if the toxins DON’T escape the body ever, and have long half lives, then it could be after 50 years of smoking but still that’s only 18,000 packets. A shop should still be ‘glowing’, even if they only stocked 100 packets.

            I’m thinking that the video is overstating the exposure.

            OR….. because the elements are INSIDE you, they have more impact. I could understand that for Alpha particles, which are easily stopped by air but the Beta particles must still be impacting, inside or out.

    From The Daily Wire.

    Report Lays Out How Biden Covered Up Deadly Side-Effects Of COVID Vaccine

    According to the report from the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, officials knew as early as February 2021 that the vaccines were associated with myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the thin sac surrounding the heart).

    The report concludes that U.S. health officials “knew about the risks of myocarditis,” “downplayed the health concern,” and deliberately “delayed informing the public about the risk.”

    Israel rolled out vaccinations quicker than the United States, so Israeli health officials saw adverse effects sooner.

    The report states that the Israeli Ministry of Health notified Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials of “large reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people, following the administration of the Pfizer vaccine.”

    Full Report:
    https://www.scribd.com/document/865042931/Senate-Report-On-The-Biden-Administration-s-Handling-Of-COVID-Vaccine-Side-Effects#from_embed

    There have been 19536 VAERS reports (Moderna: 7092 PfizerBioNTech: 12444), including 1287 reports of COVID-19 disease after vaccination and 980 death reports to VAERS. Of the death reports, 470 were from long term care facilities. Where known, the cause of death was often cardiovascular.

    Rather than provide the public and health care providers with immediate and transparent information regarding the risk of myocarditis following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination, the Biden administration waited until late June 2021 to announce changes to the labels for the Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines based on the “suggested increased risks” of myocarditis and pericarditis. Even though CDC and FDA officials were well aware of the risk of myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination, the Biden administration opted to withhold issuing a formal warning to the public for months about the safety concerns, jeopardizing the health of young Americans.

    You’d think African countries would have more important priorities than “renewables”.

    And notice how Nature, a once reputable scientific journal, has been hijacked for woke propaganda.

    Also, see what they count as “renewables” are actually properly engineered geothermal and hydro power (total 64%), not solar and wind which is only 20%, assuming the figures are true and also represent actual generation, not nameplate.

    Kenya’s big bet on renewables

    The country is making progress in transitioning to renewable energy, but the last stretch to reach the 100% mark by 2030 could be the hardest.

    In 2018, Kenya set a goal to be 100% powered by renewable energy by 2020 – a goal that was later pushed to 2030. The country has made great strides in reaching that goal, with renewable energy now representing 90% of its electricity input1, up from 50% in 2000.

    It has become third highest ranking African country in the World Economic Forum’s global Energy Transition Index (ETI), after Morocco and Namibia. The last stretch before the finish line, however, may be the hardest part. More grid flexibility and diversification of energy sources is needed to achieve Kenya’s ambitious goal in the next five years.

    Energy mix percentages can fluctuate over time due to various factors such as seasonal changes, new power plant installations, and policy shifts. A recent report by the Climate Investment Fund (CIF) found that geothermal energy contributes the lion’s share of 45% to the Kenyan electricity grid, while hydropower contributes 19%, solar energy 17% and wind just 3%. The country’s geothermal potential in the Rift Valley has boosted its prospects in geothermal energy, with an installed capacity of close to 1,000 MW. The Rift Valley is also the location of Africa’s largest wind farm, the Lake Turkana Wind Power Project.

    Kenya’s strong policy and regulatory framework has played a crucial role in this transition, says Mohamed Adow, director of Powershift Africa, a climate and energy NGO based in Nairobi. The Energy Act of 2019 provides the legal foundation for renewable energy development, and the Least Cost Power Development Plan for the period between 2021 and 2030 ensures that new energy projects are both cost-effective and sustainable.

    Here is a good Avi Yemeni + others discussion about the John Pesutto case and his likely bankruptcy due to the defamation payment he has to give to Moira Deeming.

    I feel sorry for anyone that becomes bankrupt but Pesutto was given multiple chances to apologise and he kept on repeating the lie.

    Avi also points out that it was Dan Andrews that forced Pesutto to call Deeming a National Socialist or Andrews threatened to call Pesutto that. Thus Pesutto was utterly spineless and was manipulated by Andrews into sacking Deeming and repeating the lie about her multiple times.

    Also, do you think the Liberal Party should pay Deeming or should it be Pesutto personally as Pesutto was party leader at the time?

      Pesutto repeatedly kept proving he was a fool and what’s worse he kept reinforcing that he’s a malicious fool.
      He should pay half as a fine for stupidity and malice.

        Crozier, Southwick and a couple of others were right in there with Pesutto in trying to oust Deeming. Perhaps they should contribute. But maybe they were just sucking up to the leader.
        Pesutto is employed by the state as an MP. The Liberal Party is not Pesutto’s employer and doesn’t necessarily indemnify him. He was the leader and is a lawyer. He should have known better than to panic over what mileage Andrews might milk out of the rally gatecrashers situation, and not try to throw a colleague on an alter of sacrifice.

        The problem with Pesutto going bankrupt means he doesn’t have sufficient assets to cover the liability. Which means in that scenario Deeming will be out of pocket because she would still have to pay her lawyers any shortfall.
        In that situation I hope the silly benefactors (Kennett, Baillieu, etc) who helped fund and support Pesutto into the case, take some responsibility and stump up for any resultant Deeming out of pocket costs.

        I have a lot of sympathy for Pesutto’s wife. She would be feeling some financial worry from the moment the judge decided Deeming had been defamed, before awarding of costs was even made. If not from the moment the case started.

    The other day, someone threw away a copy of Prof. Bruce Pascoe’s “Dark Emu”.

    Looking randomly through the pages there was a nonsense statement on just about every single page.

    The book is an insult to history, anthropology and reason itself.

      David:
      Wasn’t my copy (which went to the rubbish bin a long while ago) but I would have thought from memory that there was more than one nonsense statement on many pages.

    From George Christensen on Farcebook:

    🚨 The Albanese Government is back—and so might be their plan to silence dissent.

    A revamped Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation Bill would give unelected bureaucrats the power to decide what you can say, share, or believe.

    They tried to ram it through before the election. They’re going to try again.

      2026 – pandemic 2.0
      2028 – stuff 😉
      2032 – rebirth
      All part of the cycle.

      The masses haven’t woken up so donkey voted an ass back in to usher in the final stage.

      Say after me: “the majority must always be wrong”.
      It’s that fact that forces and drives change.

    More interesting cyberwarfare, not that America doesn’t use its satellites and Five-eyes for tracking everything it can, its the way to the world works.

    “… Russia’s GRU, which is responsible for a wide-reaching campaign targeting both public and private sector entities involved in co-ordinating, delivering and transporting foreign assistance to Ukraine. A particularly concerning aspect of the attack was the hackers’ access to tens of thousands of internet-connected cameras, including municipal traffic cameras and private systems near key locations such as border crossings, military installations and rail stations. These were used to track the movement of aid shipments into Ukraine, potentially disrupting critical supply lines.”

    Of course it includes the usual propaganda and lies- “With Ukrainian forces mounting a resilient defence and Western support growing”

    ..while Ukrainian forces are falling back along the whole front and Europe talks big but doesn’t pony up any money.

    Do readers here know how to key-word search a blog topic on Jo’s blog?
    Like, can I open up yesterday’s “Thursday” and search for TdeF or any other commenter? I can do it on my PC but not on this LeNovo Android tablet or on my Apple i-Phone.
    I never was much good with details of how computing works.

    Introducing the Methaphone

    Can’t stop doomscrolling? Now there’s a $20 solution: a slab of acrylic that does literally nothing – but feels like a phone.
    We’ve officially reached the point where pretending to use a phone is supposed to be healthier than actually using one.

    The Century of Evidence Vaccines Cause Sudden Infant Death Syndrome

    The incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome has grown from .55 per 1000 live births in 1953 to 12.8 per 1000 in 1992 in Olmstead County, Minnesota. The peak incidence for SIDS is at age 2 to 4 months, the exact time most vaccines are being given to children. 85 % of cases of SIDS occur in the first 6 months of infancy. The increase in SIDS as a percentage of total infant deaths has risen from 2.5 per 1000 in 1953 to 17.9 per 1000 in 1992. This rise in SIDS deaths has occurred during a period when nearly every childhood disease was declining due to improved sanitation and medical progress except SIDS. These deaths from SIDS did increase during a period when the number of vaccines given to a child was steadily rising to 36 per child.

    Vaccine Causes Polio Outbreak in Papua New Guinea

    The alarming news comes as a peer-reviewed study published last month confirmed that 80% of oral polio vaccine recipients can shed the virus to others and that vaccine strains cause 828% more paralysis than wild polio.

    The vaccine-caused outbreak occurred in a city with a “higher [than] average” vaccination rate, correlating more infections with more vaccinations.

    Major Study Warns of AIDS-like Epidemic of VAIDS Among Covid-Vaccinated Children

    The study sought to investigate surging reports of children being diagnosed with AIDS since the pandemic.

    The researchers examined cases of AIDS in children before and after the pandemic.

    They also investigated the possibility that soaring autoimmune diseases could be related to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

    However, the massive study of almost half a million children confirmed that the surge in AIDS among children is caused by Covid mRNA “vaccines,” and not the virus.

    The findings offer definite proof that the surge of AIDS in children is, in fact, VAIDS.

    Trump’s Big beautiful bill will allow AI to advance unchecked

    Republicans in the House Energy and Commerce Committee quietly added the proposed amendment in Section 43201, Subsection C. I say it’s secret because it has received almost no media attention.

    The amendment reads as follows:

    “No state or political subdivision may enforce any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems during the 10-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act.”

    https://substack.com/home/post/p-164119615

    The race is on for the for global #1 spot in AI is where the real money and power lies.
    There are no prizes for second place and everyone knows it.

    Can we coexist?
