Morning all, amazing sunrise today. It was like a huge red ball – would have made a great photo. Off to work now to pay the latest tax bill. Just got the books back from the accountant. Not all bad but I seem to be paying an awful lot of tax to support those who can’t be bothered. Wouldn’t it mind so much if I lived like a king or felt even vaguely wealthy.
Yep it was. right thru the volcanic cloud from white Island.
Hope they are paying tax on that!
Suck it up cupcake. If you are paying tax, you are making money. The country needs more like you to keep our pensions going
Don’t ignore us pensioners at 81 still working and paying tax whilst waiting for Gen ?? to gain a work ethic like us nasty boomers who have provided all the beneifts for these lazy little shits.
Some of us younger ones have a work ethic, Ive had about 3 days off in 2 months and looks like ill be at work for another 2 or 3 weeks before I get time off, so that equals paying one hell of a lot of tax
Thank you.
Shame the gubment waste so much of it
Don’t mind paying for the pension, you’ve earned it and I’ll get it one day. It’s the drug addled bludgers who can’t be bothered working that I object to supporting.
And all those other troughers. Including all the useless politicians. Cut the numbers in half.
We need a Musk like character to trawl through and kick out the fat and waste from our public service and councils.
Did you really mean cut them in half or just their salary?? either is fine with me.
Whichever gets rid. 🙂
I like your thinking..
Or at least cull the list MP’s!
youre paying for pensions of woke rich cunts that give it to the druggy dero poor doers anyways…
https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360592900/sir-ian-taylor-our-forgotten-moko-only-ever-get-one-childhood
anyways like Ed says, if youre paying tax (and gst) then youre making money. enjoy it while you can cuz its not fun when your expenses outstrip your income months on end… and then you get screwed a terminal tax bill from previous year!
😆 😆 no new fishing boat then?
Its tough out there.
nah got that 2023 sold a chunk of my gold hoarde to buy the fucker and typical gold is now 2k per oz higher then when i sold grrrr… couldve had a nice hardtop if i waited.

And all the extra clingons in gooberment that are part of the issue
We need a Trump/Musk in NZ.
We sure do, the tree needs a good shake
Its about to get one by the look of this.
BREAKING:
This investigation has major implications for NZ.
Former PMs John Key and Jacinda Ardern are said to have signed off on the 5 eyes spy warrants. Will this all come to light and bring down NZ arm of the deep state?
From Collin Rugg:
The FBI has launched an investigation into former FBI Director James Comey for his “honeypot” operation targeting Trump in 2016, according to the Washington Times.
The announcement comes just days after Kash Patel was sworn in as the new FBI director.
As reported by the Washington Times, the FBI is looking into an off-the-books operation launched in 2015 by Comey.
According to a whistleblower, two undercover female FBI employees infiltrated Trump’s 2016 campaign to act as “honeypots.”
“In the intelligence community, a honeypot commonly refers to an undercover operative, usually a woman, who feigns sexual or romantic interest to obtain information from a target,” the Washington Times reported.
The whistleblower claimed Comey ordered the investigation and “personally directed it” despite not having a specific crime.
The operation was likely a “fishing expedition” to “find” a crime against Trump.
During a recent interview before the election, Comey was visibly concerned about what Trump would do if reelected.

The ones that pinch shit!
I see the government reacon they are going to change that law, believe when I see it.
I think it will be more fence sitting!
National MP’s pissed off seeing election chances running away!
National wont change a thing, whinnie had a dildo mounted to the top of the fence for that bald headded budgie fucker luxflakes so he doesnt fall off when he piviots from one side to the other
I read somewhere that Luxcinda has managed to do something many thought was physically impossible. He has managed to sit on the fence and bury his head in the sand at the same time. Watching what he’s up to in Vietnam and how he operates overseas in general I see him as being a good sales manager in a medium sized company – he should never have been promoted any higher.
NN is of leading a business trip to Vietnam, wonder if he’s taking the two airforce 757?
“Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.”
The priest asks, “Is that you, little ROl?”
“Yes, Father, it is.”
“And who was the girl you were with?”
“I can’t tell you, Father. I don’t want to ruin her reputation.”
“Well, Joey, I’m sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?”
“I cannot say.”
“Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?”
“I’ll never tell.”
“Was it Nina Capelli?”
“I’m sorry, but I cannot name her.”
“Was it Cathy Piriano?”
“My lips are sealed.”
“Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?”
“Please, Father! I cannot tell you.”
The priest sighs in frustration. “You’re very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you’ve sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself.”
Rol walks back to his pew, and his friend naaska slides over and whispers, “What’d you get?”
“Four months vacation and five good leads…
I do like the attempt at personalisation. You should see the penance Nasska got though!
Sloppy seconds.
How did those leads go for you naas.
The new choir boy, with frilly knickers!
That second meme – in the original interview, the white girl referred to the black girl as a musician. She got most indignant and denied it furiously. Went on and on about how she doesn’t do magic,,,
The white girl just couldn’t get through to her what the difference is.
On a side note, I have no idea who each of them is or how qualified the black girl is at music (or magic) but I have my doubts there was any noticeable level of IQ on the black girls side but she did mention she has children so I hope she isn’t home schooling.
This government gives maori $48.7mil over 3yrs for dance lessons and competition.
Worlds largest maori dances held over a week.
Buses galore everywhere, presume the elite flew in!
Accommodation all booked out, minister Willis even had to go and stay with her backbench MP.
No wonder money no object, hay the government is paying,
Wonder how much got shaken out by the elites and activists?
They even pitched two large tents on our rugby pitch for the elderly and elite to sit in for the opening.
The State funding one ethnic group (or more precisely, people who self-identify as members of that ethnicity) will harm peoples’ sense of national unity and purpose. A house divided cannot stand.
In Japan it would be like treating all the Ainu, Okinawans, and 3rd-generation Koreans as “special people”. Madness.
World’s largest – where else in the world would have the slightest interest in them?
The only interest in comes from the Auto Cue Reader and his sidekick on TV1 Spews.
Suck it back & pay. The taniwha needs his kibble!
Oh Lordy. What a muppet. Does he think he’s being clever by ducking and weaving? Just makes him look devious.
Hosking: Would you – because you’ve got yourself into the usual trouble with you being too nice – would you have sacked him [Bayly] if he hadn’t offered to resign?
Luxon: Well, [that’s] hypothetical, he did resign.
Hosking: No, I know that, but just answer the question. Would you have sacked him?
Luxon: Well, he didn’t meet the expectations of a minister.
Hosking: So was it a sackable offence?
Luxon: Well, I think given how clear we’ve been on the first instance …
Hosking: Why can’t you just answer the question? This is why you get yourself reputationally in so much trouble. Would you have sacked him? Yes or no?
Luxon: I could say he didn’t meet the expectations I have of ministers.
Hosking: So you would have sacked him.
Luxon: I didn’t need to, because he resigned.
Hosking: See what you’re doing here?
Luxon: Well, you’re talking about a specific case, right, which is, have I done a good job of laying down expectations of my ministers? Yes. Crystal clear.
Hosking: The next step is really simple: ‘I’m glad he offered to resign because I tell you what, if he didn’t, I would have sacked him.’
Luxon: He wouldn’t have met my expectations as a minister.
Hosking: Why are you saying it that way? I don’t understand.
Luxon: Well, that’s what I mean. If he hadn’t resigned, I would have made an intervention.
Hosking: Why is this so bloody hard? ‘I would have sacked him.’
Luxon: No, no, but there’s an issue here …
Hosking: What is it?
Luxon: The issue is that most importantly, the standards are really clear of my ministers. They know the standards I operate within. Whenever we have any personnel issues, I think we’ve acted incredibly decisively but what I’d say in this case is I laid down, after the last instance, crystal-clear expectations, he reassured me there wouldn’t be another incident. He knew there was an incident. He then actually made that decision himself. It didn’t meet my expectations, it didn’t meet his.
Hosking: Count how many words you’re using to explain this. This is why you’re in trouble in the polls. People want something decisive. And look, if you wouldn’t have sacked him, say so. Either way, I don’t care, but people want from you, the Prime Minister, to go, ‘This is my expectation; I’m glad he resigned because if he didn’t, I would have sacked him.’
Luxon: Well, that’s exactly what has happened here though, isn’t it? I mean, he has resigned, and I’ve said to him, he hasn’t met his own expectations, which is important, right? I want ministers to understand. I saw examples …
Hosking: He came to his own conclusion, fantastic, good on him for doing that. But are you the sort of person that would have sacked him if he had not come to that conclusion?
Luxon: I think you’ve seen me act very decisively on personnel issues. That’s something I’ve done all my life, you know. It’s critical.
Hosking: No, that still doesn’t answer that. I don’t want to get bogged down on this. Why can’t you be decisive enough to simply say ‘I would have sacked him’, or not?
Luxon: In this case, he resigned. If that hadn’t happened, I would have been involved with that and would have made a decision to say he didn’t meet my expectations.
Hosking: Which would have led to what?
Luxon: It would have led to him losing the role anyway.
Hosking: So he would have been …?
Luxon: He would have been demoted.
Hosking: Demoted?
Luxon: The ministry would have been taken away.
Hosking: Right, sacked.
Luxon: Yeah, you can call it sacked.
Hosking: You’ve made a complete meal of this.

yep yep
That is what it is .
drawn out rambling;
marking time until he hands back the country to Hipkins next October.
Stalls on everything
The alt left coalition of LIE/GRN/TPM don’t need to do a thing
luxcinda is handing the ballot box victory for them next year .
There is blood in the water. Notional blood.
hipkins is safe, now
Sepuloni will make her move in due course but not in the next 2 years.
the total creep and traitor walks away at the end of 2026 with a knighthood and ‘PM of Ao tear zooland’ on his soap-selling CV
This is why politicians stink
And the notional caucus is full of these sellout girly men and damaged women (wlllyless, collins )
There is no decent heir apparent.
The politically naive were saying 2 years ago that the next liebour PM is not even in parliament yet.
This was always wrong.
bolger almost lost the 1983 election. In by a whisker.
and he was not this openly arrogant and foolish as the current critter.
There is 643 words above
When less than 30 would have done
This is a clear demonstration of how luxcinda is running down the clock towards its personal, selfish goal at Oct 2026.
Mission accomplished.
Getting very close for me detesting Luxon more than Ardern. Never thought that would be remotely possible.
BTW. Is it possibly Bayly has resigned from Cabinet, over what appears to be a very minor incident, so he have a go at rolling Luxon from the backbenches ??
Nah
Bayly went to Parliament in 2014.
Since then and with ten years of goodfellow as rich mans son president, johnny keys and fruity farrar white anting the Party we have today a bunch of girly men. dodgy women, and sycophants.
Bayly does not fit with this mob and will likely exit next year.
He is a money man, extreme adventurer , army fella.
Do you see him ever having a drink with Soimon Watts-up; mental health oddball doocey or many others like bishop.
He does not fit in and this was clear in 2023.
Far more qualified on finance than willyless can ever be but the face did not fit.
There are few there now that would follow him.
So No
He is old school and not wanted by the weak wet woke woofter Gnats of today.
any of
Brooke van Velden
Nicole McKee
Karen Chhour
has more balls than your average Gnats non-female cabinet minster, today.
You can look at the notional cabinet line up today and have great difficulty defining what a MAN is
Maybe hipkins, could help?
Fair enough howitis –it was just a wild thought.
“Do you see him ever having a drink with Soimon Watts-up; mental health oddball doocey or many others like bishop.” –hell no and I wouldn’t want any replacement leader considering that as a good idea.
I agree with your comment about Goodfellow, he is at the root of all that is wrong with National these days.
Typical politician, never being decisive.
rol
And we thought dl was evasive!!
Dancing on a pin and he wonders why he gets shit!
Dancing to election defeat!
I have a feeling that Trump is cuddling up to Putin to freak out Europe and maneuver them into a position of Trump’s liking.
The game is afoot.
The so called western leaders are largely sellout traitors to their own countries .
Common in the west now.
Germany, France, Britain- sellouts.
Belgium Netherlands, Sweden matter less.
Trump is anti sellout.
Putin is a proud nationalist, NOT a globalist.
Trump and Putin have more in common in working for their country than the traitors who are working to sellout theirs.
There is a clear delineation between those who want to start or expand war and those those who do not.
Putin held back for 8 years after the 2014 US Obama/Victoria Nudelman coup
…..then took action.
Limited and localised action
despite what seymour and oneby Powell might spout. .
totally.
I don’t think Putin is exactly the way the MSM paint him. The child trafficking and bio weapon labs they found in the Ukraine, is enough to turn even a hard man like Putin.
agree. I’d argue he is far saner and more astute than most of the western leaders bar a few exceptions.
Putin was defending his territory, a holding pattern until Trump was re-elected and put an end to the war that is US aggression. Ukraine was used by Biden and his neo-con war mongering mates as a western proxy and Zelinsky has been paid handsomely as the puppet.
...I don’t think Putin is exactly the way the MSM paint him..
What fool would ever listen to MSM ?
They lie
yesterday, today and tomorrow.
That is all they do
It is all they have ever done.
MSM never told you the whole truth; ever re
-the Cuban missile crisis ((US started this with missiles in Turkey, USSR merely responded but MSM painted them as the aggressors, still lie about it )
-The assassination of JFK
-The assassination of RFK (he was shot in the back of the neck, kill shot, Sirhan was only ever in front )
-The real facts behind Iraq going to Kuwait in 1989- (US said they could, then the Brits bleated and the lies were al on, MSM even showed doctored footage on teevee to enrage the Yanks to call for war, all a set up )
I saw something the other day that mentioned that Cuba had collapsed.
Probably correct so no doubt De Santis and Trump have that one on their agenda as there were a lot of votes from that group.
All in the fog of war, truth is the first casualty.
I am not sure if exactly true, but the word is that the Ukraine will evacuate from the Sudzha town in the Russian Kursk region.
It seems that Russia is forming a cauldron & so will have in the bag a reasonable number of Ukrainian troops.
It has been said by Russia that in the Kursk invasion, that a number of massacres were done on Russian civilians.
All mixed that in part the Russians killed Ukrainian POW’s .
Was that a retaliation by the local Russian troops?
It may be more a form that Russia wants to interrogate who they can capture, and bring to a trial, “show trial” some of the ones they capture.
https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/01/31/russia-claims-ukrainian-soldiers-killed-nearly-2-dozen-civilians-in-kursk-region-a87809
Seems to be more other villages too.
So it would seem, later, whenever, the truth will eventually be revealed from the fog.
Will any Ukrainians be left alive by the retreating Ukrainians?
“They shoot horses don’t they?”
Which brings up the assassination of the Russian General, whose forte is bio-weapons, Why him?
https://www.bbc.com/news/60711705
He supposedly checked out the Bio-laboratories that were found in the Russian captured parts of the Ukraine.
https://www.bbc.com/news/60711705
So the BBC & the UN more than infer that this could not possible be true saying that the Russians have no evidence.
A lot of this will dance on the “definitions” of just what is a chemo or bio, weapon.
Stolen poem of the day. Source unknown.
(Enjoy your youth and health while you can.)
”I cannot see
I cannot pee
I cannot chew
I cannot screw
Oh My God What can I do?
My memory shrinks
My hearing stinks
No sense of smell
I look like hell
My mood is bad–can you tell?
My body’s drooping
Have trouble pooping
The Golden Years have come at last
The Golden Years can kiss my ass.”
die old fuckers die!!!!
We will get around to it eventually. Patience is a virtue.
Probably we will be sending flowers to his Mrs before we collect ours.
Justifiably so.
you lot need to hurry it along, esp those burdening the welfare and healthcare system… and the old men with hats that drive slow and hold up traffic.
mad fuckers that give zero fucks like myself will ensure we’re not around by old age to be a burden 🙂
you are a burden now, why wait?
somedays i ponder the same thing vikey. dunno how ive managed to make it this far tbh, im sure my live hard die young strategy will pay off soon enough. 40 was my target age, if i make it till then ill be happy and anything over thats a bonus but i really dont wanna go past 60 fuck that ive thrashed my body and dont want to exist as a broken crippled old man.
Haven’t you heard only the good die young
At one point looked like I was going to be part of the 27 club, but no, now 41 and beginning to pay for the sins of the past
illness or just drugs and dumb shit?
im 38 in another week or so, my body feels like its 70 but my mind feels like its 21. knees, back and 1 shoulder are fucked with 24/7 pain and havent slept well for 25+yrs… not looking forward to another 10 or so years of this shit.
It will ALL start to kick in by the time you’re 48
Time is up.
If you do not poop you will die.
As often enough there has been no nutrient intake for some time.
Same as cannot pee, the toxins will take you out.
As always, “better out than in”. 🙄
You cannot take the “gold” with you.
What ya want my tooth fillings as well?
You greedy bugger.
What ya want my tooth fillings as well?
Yes, Only the gold ones.!
That’s what I thought. You greedy bastards are all the same.
I have some spare plastic ones I can send.
I told my son, “You will marry the girl I choose”.
He said, “No!”
I told him, “She is Bill Gates’ daughter”.
He said, “Yes”.
I called Bill Gates & said “I want your daughter to marry my son.”
Bill Gates said, “No.”
I told Bill Gates, “My son is the CEO of the World Bank.”
Bill Gates said, “Okay.”
I called the President of the World Bank & asked him to make my son the CEO. He said, “No.”
I told him, “My son is Bill Gates’ son in law.”
He said, “Okay.”
And that is exactly how politics works. Thus began the practise of hiring dumb arseholes to work in influential government positions. The practise continues unchanged to this very day!
I wonder if NN and co discussed this situation at their Blue/Green conference ? BP in major problems because of stupid decisions on renewables.
https://joannenova.com.au/2025/02/bp-in-crisis-the-oil-industrys-biggest-loser-on-renewable-energy/
“Prior to this, BP operated Australia’s largest oil refinery for 66 years in Kwinana, Western Australia until it closed in 2021. Until a few weeks ago, BP was planning to launch a $600 million biofuel project on the same site, and the Australian government was thinking of tossing $1 billion dollars at a hydrogen project there too. They were supposed to turn cooking oil into av-gas and renewable diesel, and be a hub for hydrogen. It’s sadly pathetic and unravelling at warp speed.”
Isn’t this the plan for Marsden Point?
Yes, idiot woke CEO of BP went totally green and stopped drilling for oil and renaming BP to “Beyond Petrolium”. A Florida hedge fund has been buying up shares and is ready to pounce just in time for “Drill baby drill”.

Keir Starmer’s Rule Will BREAK Britain! | David Starkey’s Stark Warning
Historian David Starkey joins Steven Edginton to discuss whether Keir Starmer’s government is doomed to collapse, the war in Ukraine, and if Donald Trump is really “appeasing” Putin. Starkey also covers the rise of the AfD and the German elections, Trump’s America First policy, and why Europe has failed to build up its defence industry and armies.
Starlin’s ChanceIIor of the Exchequer claimed she’d invented a new and improved economic system but it’s actually just copying “Biden-nomics” which only works if continually pumping funding into the economy. While the US economy limped on under Biden, Britain is broke and Labour can’t borrow any more funding. How long will it stay upright before it falls over?
Prediction:
When Starmer visits tomorrow Trump will offer to buy the UK or make it the 52 US state. Lol.
Herr Starmer should be sent to Nuremberg!
They missed him.
Stasi and Starmer might sound different, but they mean the same thing. Poor old Pomgola is in for a real flogging. Hope Jeremy and the lads can scuttle these nasty Marxists and deport them to the other side of the Russian border.

Should we stop Cook Islanders from automatic entry, cease citizenship and residency, all foreign aid, till the dust settles and we know what the situation is in the Cook Islands?
and we should stop sending them money along with the Kiribati’s and others.
Refugees?
Yes! Ditto for another pack of bludgers who are currently engaged in a spot of diplomatic blackmail. Might be time to call their bluff.
…..”Peters said the Government had respected Kiribati’s preference to avoid outside engagement for more than a year, but needed to visit the country to review existing aid projects and understand its ongoing needs.”……
I suspect that it will be another example of the indigenous elite creaming the largesse.

MERIDIAN TAKES A PROFIT HIT FOR THE TEAM
Gentailer Meridian Energy (MEL, #2) reported a net loss after tax (NLAT) of -$121 mln, for the six months ending December 31, 2024. This is down from a net profit of +$191 mln in last year’s half-yearly results, a swing of more than $300 mln. Renewable energy generation hit by drought, with low winds along with gas shortages “made the operating environment for the first half of this financial year as tough as I can ever recall experiencing,” the company said. “Meridian put this country’s security of supply first and, as NZ’s largest renewable electricity generator, our balance sheet tends to underwrite the mitigation of extended droughts,” they added.
And the other lot are stacking up the coal mountain.
Expensive electricity in the winter.
nothing at all to do with the ngai tahu extortion racket???
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/350364133/meridian-silent-ngai-tahu-waitaki-river-consent-payment
theyre setting the stage to justify hefty price hikes, once they go up they never go back down.
we need to get some fucking big hydro dams built, round up all the greenies, nimbys and iwi grifters that hold up such projects and bury the fuckers in the concrete foundations!!!
build a big coal fired plant on the lignite feilds of southland, plenty of water to feed it nearby in the mataura river. once again bury the problems in the foundations or use em for fuel 🙂
the climate wokeness and taniwha appeasment is sending us broke with initial payments and then continual arse fucking via inflation of energy prices.
those that hold up and oppose new generation should be held financially liable for any resulting price rises, shortages and blackouts.
And charge the Ngai Tahu negotiators with extortion.

DOGE and the Left melting down
Retailers and members of the public will soon have more ability to detain shoplifters and thieves under beefed-up citizen’s arrest powers, the Herald understands.
The Government is today expected to announce a range of measures aimed at curbing rising retail theft, which have been proposed by its ministerial advisory group formed in July to address retail crime.
LISTEN LIVE: Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith talks to Mike Hosking at
https://www.sunlive.co.nz/news/361360-theft–citizen—s-arrest-powers-to-be-expanded.html
Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith and Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee will detail their intention to amend the Crimes Act 1961 to make it easier for retail staff and members of the public to make citizen’s arrests – effectively detaining an offender until police attend.
……”amend the Crimes Act 1961 to make it easier for retail staff and members of the public to make citizen’s arrests – effectively detaining an offender until police attend.”…..
That is moving into very dangerous territory. I cannot see how it can work without granting open slather to everyone & anyone to deprive their fellow citizens of their freedom. If security staff are allowed to restrain people until police get off their arses to attend a shoplifting incident then we’ll see holding cells built into Pak ‘n Save & the Warehouse.
Armourguard & the like will become
thugscitizen police for hire.Think very carefully before you support enabling legislation.
exactly, just remember back a few short years ago to when ppl were tackling non mask wearers and waiting for pigs to arrive.
do we really need to embolden the SJWs and karens? im all for allowing business owners to fight back with weapons etc but letting any jumped up clown who passes by do it im not so sure esp if they werent witness to the entire thing.
You have never been overseas then?
Malls,hotels and casino’s have jails.
something needs doing an to blame the police is infantile.
They can only be so many places at anytime.
Unless of course you want to double the numbers and the same for the court rooms and jails.
Take ya pick.
I’m not directly affected in any way so it would be fair to say I don’t have a dog in the race BUT anything that could possibly infringe on a citizen’s freedom gets my antennae twitching.
My fears would be slightly allayed if there were penalties built into the legislation that allowed for massive compensation in the case of an unjustified arrest. Loss adjusters & security staff are usually poorly trained, wannabe thugs who shouldn’t be given power over anyone.
You would be the first one to screech if you were detained for a few hours & strip searched “just in case” or because someone thought you might have stolen something.
What would you do if you caught a sheep rustler? Oh I know claim the buggers died and get a subsidy.
While I agree its needs restraints its a real problem every where. Golritz inspire you at all. Miilons walk out of supermarkets every week.and that’s the small stuff. someone dropped a house in a back road in Northland this morning. Beleived to be stolen. Boats and trailers and caravans are just about an everyday occurrence, Cars every day.
gotta stop somehow.
I agree Nasska, it’s going to open up to people ‘protecting’ themselves. Give people an inch…
Does restraining a burglar apply in a home invasion to to protect yourself?
They’ll never allow us to defend ourselves adequately. That would remove our fear that makes us beg them for protection.
The Trump administration will determine which journalists participate in the White House press pool, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Tuesday (Wednesday NZT), breaking with nearly a century of practice in which the independent White House Correspondents’ Association has overseen the rotating group of news outlets who cover the president in Washington and on travels.
It is an aggressive move by the government to control which news outlets have access to the president – one that is unprecedented in modern American politics and comes after Trump’s long-standing efforts to erode Americans’ trust in fact-based reporting.
As journalists and media critics warned that White House control of the press pool threatens the foundations of a free press and could allow the administration to more easily block reporters from the White House, Trump boasted about the move.
“We’re going to be calling those shots,” he said from the Oval Office late Tuesday afternoon.

Free Speech Union’s Nathan Seiuli talks to Michael Laws about the Masterton church fires and the media’s treatment of it.
The coot who confessed to lighting the fires on Facebook referred to “seven stars for seven churches. This would be a reference to Revelation 1:20 which states:
# Apparently “the mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels[1]of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.”
Revelations was supposedly written by John who must have marinated himself for a few years in kaneh bosem before writing the crap but it seems likely that he has influenced some nutter who has become a pyromaniac.
Absolutely. When I was studying Biblical Studies many years ago, it was opined to the teacher that Revelation was proof of mind altering drugs in those days…. Problem is so many Bible Bashers take it literally…..
Most of the top revered poets were simply wacked out of their gourds on mind altering substances when they wrote their BEST work
If these protesters are found guilty & immediately hanged in public as a deterrence to any similar actions being planned I’ll join ROL to listen to a sermon at the church of his choosing.

why?
1. do you think you could stop/detain them or would you just end up another of their victims?
2. i cant see the vid but im guessing they have treaty rights entitling them to whiteys stuff.
3. detain? pfffft disappear them would help lower reoffending rates, lets be real here even if the pigs do get them they wont even get home d so whats the point?
4. how does one detain them for the 9-12 days itll take for the pigs to get back to you?
5. if you detained then tried to take them to police station after no one answers the 105 number and 111 tells you to ring 105 then do you get charged with kidnapping?
Might be like that down your way but that’s probably what you deserve.
that you can’t read, well that’s your continuing problem.
