If you want an example of why public trust in the media is heading towards zero here in NZ you have one right here, in the article below. Trump’s approval numbers in the USA are pretty good, with the highest ‘country on the right track’ rating since 2004, per NBC.
But you wouldn’t know if you got your news from @rnz_news (who don’t have the courage to be on X, anyway). Of course, the article came from CNN, which is itself a rapidly declining news platform in the USA. Not that you would know that, either, if you got your news from the MSM in NZ.
Since being elected, Trump has, of course, continued to be Trump. Nothing new there. The difference this time is that his approval numbers are much higher than his first term. They are also much higher than his immediate predecessors were for most of his term.
Why do I point that out? Because if you only read @NZStuff or @NZHerald, watched @1newsNZ, or listened to RNZ, you would think the US was having severe buyer’s remorse, and that Trump’s actions were being found to be unlawful left, right, and centre by the US courts. The reality is that neither of those things are really happening.
Trump is, for the most part, incredibly popular with his base and hated by his opposition, with the plurality seeming to come down just on the side of positive approval at various levels. His policies are more popular than not, according to most polling.
The court ‘defeats’ are not what the media portray them as. The US has, for the moment because it could well change as a result of this, a weird system whereby US (Federal) District Court Judges can issue temporary nationwide, injunctions restraining or requiring action, if they think that a plaintiff has a good chance of winning. Those are what are being touted as a ‘defeat’ of Trump. They really aren’t. In recent years, US District Court Judges have a bad habit of overstepping their jurisdiction and getting slapped down by the US Supreme Court.
None of which you will learn from the NZ media. And for as long as the news media continues to report only one side of the story, to assume that all of New Zealand agrees with them and therefore would only want one side of the story, they will continue to fail. I appreciate that there may be rules around using wire services content, but there are providers around who provide other content (not just FOX) who you can, you know, balance things with.
Of course, when you are a government-funded entity, perhaps you feel entitled to engage in exercising your bully pulpit because nothing is really going to happen to you because of it. Stuff and NZME don’t have that incredible safety net. Well, not any more.
We are adults, tell us just the facts and let us make up our own minds.
I notice that one Federal Judge is heading for removal and another who took on Pam Bondi got a new arse ripped and is heading for consequences of the cheeio variety. Lets hope this is just the beginning.
Very good article Ed.
The meme is “Trump endangers Democracy”
when the truth is “Trump endangers Bureaucracy”.
& stops their money flows & demands accountability, audits, etc..
That is what enrages the oversized dead hands of Bureaucracy, self important NGO’s, where surplus government monies may flow with a nod, nod, wink, wink, of no accountability.
So they are calling in every connection, using every tool, amplified by media, to self protect & remain on the taxpayer’s teat.
It is important to keep a sense of humour

One wonders when the public will have buyer’s remorse on the over play, over reach about the continuous media’s beat up of school lunches.
So why has not Luxon pulled it, as his mention of beneficiary folate Vitamin B9 marmite sandwiches to save the foetuses of school girls & boys in this inclusive gender binary world sort of hinted at it.
Is it because he goes along with Matt Doocy?
I also stand here as someone who’s a proud father of two young children, a boy and a girl — and I do look forward to celebrating their sexual orientation, their gender identity that they will decide—
https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/hansard-debates/rhr/document/HansS_20220208_053460000/doocey-matt
So the National Party are captured and no one will speak out by men in woman’s changing rooms & toilets or competing in women’s sports.
And the media continues on, amplifying, & suppressing others, as if it is already law in New Zealand on many issues, so there is only their way to understand things in this world.
If the women in the teams facing a team with a fake female won’t just refuse to play then th epublic should refuse to watch and apy attendance money.
Good morning and to all who support Orania 😊
An interesting, contrast in South Africa.
Also to see that over a million views & over 6,000 comments that have a variety of takes on this.
Black Man Investigates South Africa’s Whites-Only Town
https://youtu.be/Pck18CEbFs8
32 mins 23 secs : March 13th 2025
…… Orania is a self-declared Afrikaner-only town, founded in 1991 as a place for White Afrikaners to preserve their culture, language, and way of life.
Today, it has a population of nearly 3,000 people, its own government, its own currency (the Ora), and a strict set of rules for who can live there.
Residents must be White Afrikaners, fluent in Afrikaans, uphold Calvinist Christian values, and have a clean criminal record. ……
One of the points raised in the video, that there was lack of Diversity, which later bought many more comments.. 🤣 😂 😀
So all the best to the people in Orania, & your success to stand as a beacon, and not draw other’s ire, envy & jealousy, or rage.
The embers of patriotism has always been there, maybe suppressed by the likes of ‘Diversity’; but they are emerging as Ed notes in the first comment of the morning.
For the ones who see the need to speak out, stand up for what they believe, this Irish lass pretty well says it all, in her stance for Saint Patricks day.

Some frogs in the heating water are noticing it.
Can the government, NGO’s all for Diversity etc., keep the lid on it?
Bearing in mind, that their could be some interesting contacts & experience from the now elderly IRA.
No wonder that Irish colleen was unhappy with Saint Patrick’s parade in Ireland if this was anything like what she saw.

you are completely wrong there
plenty are
many, many, many
don’t fool yourself
the majority of NZers would have a bias against Trump
There has been a 10 year media campaign since 2015 on this .
over 50% immediately went along with the jabby jab story and many I spoke to, the majority, were chomping at the bit to get their first vaXXX
as soon as they could; few of these have changed .
I had a BBQ last weekend with 12 people here.
I would be the only one who is not anti Trump
2 are 21 and 17 and have been indoctrinated by the school and uni system
adults
one is vehemently anti Trump, anti DeSantis and is turning on Musk
I have managed in the last 2 years to turn around his saintly view view on johnny keys.
His daughter moved last year to Perth, AU so he wont see much of his grandchildren. a cumulative effect of bad governance here
Another watches the teevee 6pm crap and has done forever so I have to try to educate him.
——————-
In NZ there is a current hard floor of 45% support for liebour/Greens/ TPM (hard left) and likely the next govt
lots of upside for them to run the show from next October.
and this time they will be ready.
notional (left wing) and ACT (centre/left) cant get to 45% between them.
Winston First will go where the baubles are, despite what he may ramble about.
So lots are
still buying the propaganda
and will line up for jabs if required
I called into the local pharmacy just before closing on Friday. There were 12 chairs there for the post vaXXX wait time.
The French are the only Westerners who have shown consistent desire to push against govt.
The rest are majority compliant.
Have you missed the 3Million + votes in Britains petition to remove the Govt and have a new election or the mass tractors in Westminster.Doesn’t look to rosy for Albo and the Canadian Turd is toast as was the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Micron will be reassigned to somewhere far away, Austria and Holland are cobbling coalitions to ensure the popular right wind parties are not in Govt like AFD in Germany its second largest party and Geert Wilders in Holland. NZ MSM either don’t know, don’t care or are just in permanent denial of everything they disagree with until insolvency demonstrates their market value, probably about the same value as a piece of shit and just as useful. On the other hand the USA is entering a new era of sucess and we may yet see the Bidens/Clintons and many others on holiday at Gutanamo Bay.
Nobody is buying the propaganda anymore.
It is the Irish colleens, well any female, plus young boyos who are being raped, abused, injured, that is waking the Irish up to the propaganda.
Mugged by reality, but will they press charges, on those politicians?
Being mugged by reality in Ireland and the lid is lifting.
Bear in mind that Tommy Robinson is of Irish descent too, and much of that info is easily obtained.
Yesterday’s confirmed Court decision that he is not a political prisoner, and that he garners many privileges, while being the only prisoner on the wing for his safety, so it can not be “solitary isolation” but many will see that as British judicial propaganda.
In New Zealand, we still have many safe leafy suburbs, and many do not need to shop at Pak & Save.
Kiwis still remain very tolerant of daylight car park guns discharging multiple times, sort of a shootings, & home invasions, just desiring that more licenced firearms owners be turned over so every one can be safe.
Probably wishing they would be doxxed so as to be the mark, just like a Telsa owner.
Plus it would seem ram raids are have eased off, and home invasions, are not too bad.
The main problem in NZ are the school lunches, where the student consumers are at high risk of malnutrition & other deficiencies.
Note how newspapers circulation, subscriber numbers are still dropping and eyeballs on TV & radio are dropping even in NZ.
Still a long way to drop, Die MSM Die.
The point is the Irish are slowly awaking, being mugged, raped, though it will take a lot more rapes, knifing, etc., as measured in how long it has taken for much of Europe, to even flicker open its eyes a little.
Slowly things are ripening, like what are the reasons for the big waiting list for heart scans.
Dancing around, but not really pointing at lower numbers of skilled technicians, to being a reason for fewer scans or fewer machines, etc..
Talked all around, but keeping stum on the elephant in the room of increased patient numbers & of course blurring those too..
I know in NZ many still believe in the jab, but increasingly quiet questions are being raised about fit young fire brigade member, heart problems, or middle age St. Johns member, now living with a stroke.
I have pushed for a young fella with a clot in his lungs, to ask for D-timer blood test, among his many other tests.
Morning all, I was reprogramming the doll the other day for it’s latest mission and clearly managed to stuff things up yet again. I still can’t work out for the life of me how it managed to get Waititi mixed up with Foreman. Never mind, I’m sure I’ll get it right next time.
maybe the doll needed to be holding a whipper snipper? also cut the barcode tag off its arse and stitch the barcode to its face may improve accuracy.
Yep, I see George passed on.

Te Whānau o Waipareira Trust was established over 40 years ago.
It’s an institution in Tāmaki Makaurau, much admired for its mahi with West Auckland whānau.
Over the years its attracted criticism too.
Last month, the Public Services Commission Inquiry identified ‘multiple and overlapping interests’ between Waipareira Trust, the Whānau Ora Commissioning Agency Te Pou Matakana, Manurewa Marae – and key players in Te Pāti Māori.
It’s complicated. ….
…. They discussed the nature and implications of those alleged overlapping interests and what next.
It would seem that it all operates under another set of laws.
Something akin to ‘Jizya’ and a bit later to be practiced in full.

Lyndsey, RN: “My first vaccine was December 23rd 2020…And I am still producing spike proteins… I’m currently at day 1,542…”
Dr. Paul Marik: “She’s 1,500 days out, and she’s still making spike protein. That is… the scariest shit that I’ve ever heard.”
In this clip from a recently posted FTI Special Report Live Broadcast with Liz Gunn, registered nurse and whistleblower Lyndsey, RN describes how her body is still producing spike protein “continuously” 1,542 days after her first COVID injection. Lyndsey notes this blows the recently published Yale study “out of the water” regarding the timeframe during which injection recipients produce spike protein and adds that she herself was even a participant in the study, “but they didn’t want to put [her] data in there.”
Dr. Paul Marik, a co-founder of the Independent Medical Alliance, formerly FLCCC) and physician, responds to this fact by noting “That is… the scariest shit that I’ve ever heard.”
Marik goes on to say:
“Jay Bhattacharya and Bobby Kennedy and all of these people need to… spend some money studying this disease. We have to because we gotta figure out why is she producing spike, what’s it coming from, and then what can we do to interfere to break the cycle? It should be an absolute priority.
“Instead of the NIH… spending millions of dollars on grants studying vaccine hesitancy… what they should be doing is studying vaccine harms at a fundamental level… because Lyndsey is not alone. She’s not alone.”
Dr. Pierre Kory, another Independent Medical Alliance founder, who has personally treated Lyndsey, adds:
“Lyndsey is not too unlike many [other] patients in my practice. I would say in the spectrum of severity, she’s pretty up there. But I have, I mean, in my practice, we have hundreds and hundreds of patients between me and my partner [who’ve been similarly harmed].”

Further more if you want to understand the devastating outcomes, watch the entire Star Trek Voyager series.
Star Trek TNG and Voyager, and others, are set in the future, with a surprising amount of insight and clarity into what happened in their past i.e. our future. WW3, Eugenics wars (what Big Pharma is doing now).
Voyager encounter a civilisation who are disfigured and mutating with a disease called the Phage, as a result of experiments with Bacteriophages. In real life, a phage virus is the virus made by the Bacteriophages.
In Voyager a result of the out of control Phage virus, peoples bodies mutate and a large illegal industry emerges in the trafficking of human organs, to replace ones that have deteriorated. So organ traffickers scour the Delta quadrant looking for suitable organs, and removing them from live patients, by use of mini transportation devices, leaving their victims to die.
And the name of this civilisation? The Vidiians.
Covidiians?
Like the Bible, the teachings of Nostradamus, etc, Star TNG, Voyager etc appear to be written about the past, but in our future.
Star Trek TNG, Voyager, DS9, Enterprise, Roddenberry’s Andromeda, and Earth Final Conflict are the best series, along with Series 3 of Picard. TOS, the original series with Kirk is dated, but still has value.
Later series, after both Gene and his wife had passed, such as Discovery, Strange New Worlds, are just all CGI and woke DEI/LGBTQI
And I am still producing spike proteins… I’m currently at day 1,542…
Nanobots. Most likely re-purposed Bacteriophages. Bacteriophages occur naturally in the body and act and behave like nanaobots.
When a body becomes infected with bacteria, they are created out of cellular material, multiply and inject their bacteria destroying DNA into the Bacteria cells, destroying it.
Big Pharma has been trying since the mid 1920s to hijack and use Bacteriophages as a fdrug / vaccine delivery system. Primarily to overcome the body’s natural resistance to anti-biotics and vaccines.
If you search for info about them on Google, they are being hailed as a new saviour for mankind, touted as a way to deliver a new range of drugs, vaccines, and targeted DNA repair.
If you searched during Covid-19, you got zero search results, unless you knew where to look. The Covid vaccines use this technology. Big Pharma hijacked this process, and the graphene in the shots provides necessary components to help in the nanobot assembly.
A Bacteriophage virus is the only true virus, called a phage virus. Which is harmless to humans and animals as it was designed to replicate and infect bacteria.
The lead photos remind me of Jacinda friend the pink whale floundering around in the water!

“and that is set out to continue over time”
Scotty Morrison sits down with Tama Potaka, the man tasked with improving things for Māori, in a coalition government that many see as downright hostile to things Māori.
Tama Potaka will be guiding Luxon & cabinet, to keep them in line.
As mentioned, it be across all New Zealanders, as he presses on with those supposed pressing Teee tweeetii issues.
So what does Tama Potaka of the National Party want to see, in, by 2040.

In mental health news:
https://dailytelegraph.co.nz/daily-life/health-wellbeing/trump-derangement-syndrome-could-be-recognised-as-a-mental-illness/
well the likes of oliver hartwich and fruity farrar believe trump supporters are infact the ones that suffer TDS so maybe be careful of who is deciding it be declared a mental illness as definitions may vary.
musk derrangement syndrome seems to be on the rise big time, i see theres now absolute derranged retards stopping tesla drivers on the road and demanding they sell their nazi cars…. yea selling it to another person dosent make the nazi car disappear. fucking genius////
gunna be a fair few clowns in usa getting hefty sentences for their anti musk protests. imagine being so butthurt iraqi seasame street got cancelled so ya torch a tesla dealership and get 20yrs jail, epic stupidity.
And just like that, climate change is out and gas guzzling cars are the thing once again. It was never about the climate but control of the population.
I can’t wait until Kash, Bongino, all the cops and the DOJ get the conveyer belt to jail moving for the arrested, convicted criminally corrupt and violent idiots with TDS, MDS.
WINNING BIGLY! 👍
This shows the entitlement of the left. Arresting these corrupt idiots will be like shooting fish in a barrel. Former ‘squad member’ Cori Bush FAFO.

Democrat ‘Squad’ Member’s Husband Charged with WIRE FRAUD, Lying for COVID-19 Funds: ‘We’re F*CKED’
Another Sunday morning in the beautiful Wairarapa. The sound of the church bells summoning
the deludedthe faithful to worship, the children earning their pocket money by picking up bullet casings from supermarket carparks & council contractors hosing yesterday’s blood from the footpaths.Multiculturalism has so much to offer.
This made my day.
“The sheer volume of complaints over the entire year of the tenancy and the tenant’s failure to engage with the landlord in addressing the ongoing issues, combined with the escalation of the behaviour and the involvement of guns, has led the landlord to urgently seek termination out of concern for its neighbouring tenants,” the decision said.
The tenant gave evidence to the tribunal denying all allegations.
Tribunal adjudicator Geoffrey Baker found that because the complaints came from anonymous sources and no complainant was willing to give evidence, the application to terminate lacked corroboration.
“While numerous anonymous complaints have been received, there is insufficient proof, such as personal testimony or independent reports from the local authority’s contractor, to support the allegations,” the decision said.
The tribunal was also critical that despite receiving 25 complaints, Kāinga Ora had issued only six breach notices and only two of the complaints, dogs barking and threatening the neighbour, were able to be proved.
“On the evidence before the tribunal, the landlord has failed to persuade it on the balance of probabilities that the tenant has repeatedly breached the RTA [Residential Tenancies Act] in the manner complained of in the notices issued, except for those indicated above,” Baker said.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/tribunal-rules-kainga-ora-tenant-stays-despite-antisocial-behaviour-shooting/5Q425W7UFJAWDIGJH5E6LDLWLM/
Mr Baker needs new neighbours then.
Now of course they can give him notice to leave without needing any reasons. Of course, he will cause more trouble.
Whne responibilities and terms are unequal as they are in tenancy tribunal case the ultimate result will be landlords using perhaps a website to report their opinion of a tenant on a scale say 1-5 on rent payment/property upkeep/social behavior/ adherence to contract terms /. Time for David Seymour the real PM to propose equalising legislation so breaches of 2 items means bye bye now.
Another reason, why Ed’s first morning post, and now SA’s mental health post about Trump Derangement Syndrome TDS is in some form or other recognized at the highest levels in the Australian government. The same problem in New Zealand as all our journalists & many others are taught in universities, funded from the USA.
The cut of funding could leave a $600 million hole in the efforts of Australian researchers, with the US the largest research partner of Australia.

They call it research, but read further.
Already in New Zealand universities there have also been whisperings of the USAID funding drying up.
But the sly answer given here, where one can figure, the possible touch of NGO’s passing on some of their ill gotten gains.

As in the above pic today, did Michelle Obama invest, launder her funding money in a gardening hints at a well paid university tutorial?
Interesting
back in the 1970s there was a lot of talk about the USSR/Russia funding the Unions for disruptive purposes
{the whinging sobbing slack-azzed Poms and Oirish unionists could do that moaning without funding, it was a natural instinct )
But has there been any mention – until now- of the crooked funding of the universities and MSM ?
Thought not !
Who is funding NZ initiative and that rogering partrige cunt who has suddenly come to life
Is it Soros funds? These are not cut off.
There are more than 50 other NGOs and Billionaires who fund this activity
Not least of all , women who didn’t earn it
Steve Jobs widow, Melinda Goates, Sam Walton’s Daughter
who pour billions of money, made by men, into lefty causes.
…..”{the whinging sobbing slack-azzed Poms and Oirish unionists could do that moaning without funding, it was a natural instinct )”…..
Very true. Your average arsehole pommie unionist who could be guaranteed to yell “all oot brothers” at the drop of a cloth cap was so thick that he couldn’t have found a shortcut to the shithouse if he had diarrhoea. Even the organisers, although rat cunning, were incapable of rational thought.
But the early globalists would have had an oar in any water that could be muddied by stirring. That would have included the universities & public service of the time.
The far left Newsroom are bleating in similar vein this morning. It would seem that their globalist masters have their underwear bunched because:
#. “Several entries in Project 2025, a policy blueprint created by the conservative Heritage Foundation think tank, call for Noaa to be dismantled and privatised.”
#. “The document describes Noaa as “one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry”. The Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research was targeted as the source of this “climate alarmism”, and the playbook recommended “the preponderance of its climate-change research should be disbanded”.”
https://newsroom.co.nz/2025/03/20/nz-climate-forecasts-based-on-a-system-trump-is-dismantling/
The only real risk is the rising of the sea levels occasioned by Lefty tears.

Government budget cuts: Nicola Willis is prepping for a bonfire of the vanity projects – Ryan BridgeBy Ryan Bridge
Nicola Willis has been quietly working for the last few months on a plan to slash government spending in the upcoming Budget. The knife is being sharpened.
We borrowed a ton of money during Covid and our debt-to-GDP doubled. As anyone with a mortgage knows, borrowed money must be paid back.
We’re now spending more on servicing debt than we do on primary and secondary schools and the Ministry of Justice combined. Now Donald Trump’s trade war is pushing up the cost of servicing that debt.
Willis told me during a discussion on Newstalk ZB this week that this cost will increase in the Budget. It’s chewing through cash like a beagle through a rubbish bin.
Willis’ operating allowance, the amount of new money at play, is already thin.
Since Grant Robertson was in charge and the allowance large, times have changed. It’s been on a strict course of Ozempic. There’s no shortage of votes in need of a cash injection come Budget Day on May 22.
Judith Collins wants to double spending on defence to $10 billion over time, some of which will be capital expenditure but still – ka-ching.
The survivors of abuse in state care must be compensated. It’s the right thing to do, but again, ka-ching. Willis also highlights health, education and police as priorities for extra investment. Ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching.
Throw in debt servicing and you’re starting to think about running out of the restaurant and leaving the tab to somebody else. Or raising taxes or levies to make up a shortfall.
Willis says no to that – nothing major coming, except for charities, though that won’t light the world on fire.
Yes, we are now out of recession and surprised on the upside by this week’s GDP number. Dairy and beef prices, along with tourism numbers for February, are all picking up and should help first-quarter growth, along with falling interest rates. But there remains a risk to global growth and therefore our export earnings and associated tax take from trade wars.
Add all this together and you’re left with one unmistakeable course of action. Cuts.
Willis has been beavering away for months on a plan across all of government – to cut programmes that were nice ideas but don’t work.
The Finance Minister has looked at cutting entire ministries and agencies but says it costs more to delete them in the short term than would be saved. So none of that this time around.
But if you’re working on a project, a programme, a piece of work that has no tangible benefit to a decent chunk of taxpayers, then brace yourself. You’re on the chopping block and Willis is coming your way. The apron’s on and it’s not a filleting knife in her hand but a meat cleaver.
Willis has dropped other hints about her intentions over the past few months.
Items to look out for include potential changes to corporate tax rates and incentives for multinationals. Part of the problem with our current account deficit is offshore companies sending their profits overseas. Accelerated depreciation on manufacturing technology would help boost wages, productivity and growth.
Also look for an agreement between coalition partners allowing wealthy foreigners to buy homes worth more than $5 million, rather than the $2m floor price scuttled by New Zealand First after the last election. Willis’ update last week was that this issue is currently at the “leader-to-leader” stage of discussions.
There may be two months till Budget Day but, as always, the pre-Budget announcements will start trickling well before that.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/government-budget-cuts-nicola-willis-is-prepping-for-a-bonfire-of-the-vanity-projects-ryan-bridge/JYC2BVMKGVDXHIHPTEAVGL2KP4/
We will see. wonder if she has been looking at Trumps efforts.
Will she create a DOGE.
Unlikely as a Nat and a follower of the man with a funny hat.
I hope that Willis is taking note of the saving DOGE is making with much more to come this is the starter for 10.
Why even bother
This is just yakkety yak from Willyless
and second hand yakking from a churnalist required to do a Sunday column (I assume)
more announcements

Simple facts
Gnats have not cut Govt expenditure.
In their second year they have increased Govt spending by 17%
There may be more from increased defence expenditure.
Defence against what?
Are they still crying out
The Russians are Coming
as has been done by baying fools for 150 years..
Simples
Ruth Richardson brought in a cost cutting budget 6 weeks after elected in 1990. The Mother of All Budgets.
Willyless has done no cost cutting and will do no cost cutting.
Does not have the guts.
neither does luxcinda
Back in 2008/2009 keys/Blinglish cut out adult classes.
about $30 million a year. Made fuck all difference when the same govt was borrowing $70 million a week for over 18 months.
Gnats major in the minors.
And fuck, can they talk !!!
But can they do?
NO
Wealthy foreigners want to live in Switzerland, Singapore, Canada, Australia etc before they want to live in apartheid NZ.
Willyless really is clueless.
And drag out that fool Judy Collins to the home for the bewildered. She is completely nuts now.
Why is it so hard to get rid of Ministries and public servants?
Yes I know , a host of reasons but things need to be changed or else we perpetuate the problem.
Someone needs to be ruthless .
It is and will always be, just lip service from the Nats. They say all the right things to get elected, but when it comes to doing the hard stuff, they don’t even try.
Prediction – if Luxinda and his woke ministers continue on the same track the next Govt may well be one led by ACT, David as PM amdNational as a junior partner – not sure about Winston due to age but Shane Jones continues to improve.
Have you ever tried removing dog shit from a shoe? Same principle. Same shit. Just a different form of it.
Excellent. The UK deserves this kind of shit. I feel for the passengers though.

Turns out, one of the world’s largest airports apparently didn’t have reliable back up generators. This may be just sheer incompetence but some insiders are saying it’s specifically because it went Net Zero compliant in 2012 and switched diesel generators for biomass ones.
Airplane wheels brakes are so energy dense. We have put flaps/slots in the floor of the aircraft and are using 300 Indians to use their bare feet to slow the plane down upon landing.
Looks like Canada is fucked as well. Hope it becomes the 51st state soon….
Good to see the Canadian turd turfed out but doubt Carney will be any better, with Alberta going independant and possibly joining the US as the 51st State if it happens and sucessful other Camadian states will follow due to pressure from voters.
A man shows up at work on Monday with a black eye. His co-workers obviously ask what happened.
“Well, I went to church yesterday morning and the preacher asked us to stand. I noticed the woman in front of me was wearing a skirt that was tucked into her buttcrack so I pulled it out for her. She didn’t appreciate it and slugged me in the eye. I won’t ever do that again.”
Next Monday he shows up and the other eye is black. Co-workers ask about it.
“Well, I went to church and the same lady was sitting in front of me. The preacher asked us to stand and again her skirt was tucked in to her buttcrack. The guy beside me pulled it out. I knew it was going to piss her off so I tucked it back in.”
Never believe everything you see. Cindy getting her jab in public was bullshit

In the same vein, or as was done, up the nose & basically in connivance with the lot of them, when they found out how to get away with things.
2nd September 2020 … At their next meeting, testing was the main subject. “I [Shane Reti] had to bring it up. ‘Ashley, [Bloomfield] you need to fess up. You didn’t have a normal nasal.
That one you did on television, that was a high-turbinate nasopharyngeal.’
Which is a hell of a lot easier, it’s the one we use with children.
He [Bloomfield] rocked back in his chair and laughed. ‘How did you know that?‘ he asked. [Admission of guilt]
I know things,” Reti said with a smile.
“All the ministers were looking around the table.
‘What’s a high-turbinate?’ Hipkins was asking, ‘What’s a high-turbinate?’
And Brownlee just rolled his eyes. The technical guys were talking. It was convivial.
I think he feels a kindred spirit in me.
Reti isn’t having a go at Bloomfield’s, though, for his choice of test.
”An adult can do it. It’s totally appropriate for an adult,” he said. [So Reti did not call Bloomfield out, but went along with the game]
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/dr-shane-reti-on-leading-nationals-changed-covid-19-coronavirus-response/TPXY5CUWO27N66GQ2IGED2M3WU/#google_vignette
What else did the National Party, journalists, the elitist feelz etc. go along with ? ? ?
And the adults laughed, giggled, smirked, partied; & danced around what they were supposed to be doing, as they did not believe there was a real problem.
So they must have just about laughed their heads off, smirking seeing cars queued up around the block, to take part in mandated deep nasal brain probes, when they sent the word out, or pressured people to come forward for testing, to be okayed to travel, or gain access for something important in their lives.
You could tell from her body language and face that is was fake. People all over the country who knew her, could tell from her body language and her all knowing smirk.
And the needle going in elicited about as much automatic body response as that of a cadaver. Any needle going in that deep produces an automatic response.
“It’s just a wee prick, Jacinda.”
“Is it in yet?”
Covid Theatre. And at the time Bloomfield had given less than 100 vaccine exemptions. 100 = Actually 20,000+
Besides she, Robbo, and a few others, knew about the “upcoming pandemic” in Oct/Nov 2019, before the pandemic “started” in December 2019, with Robbo borrowing $19Bn in Nov 2019 with no plan for the money, in preparation for a “once in a generation” opportunity. As he was reported as saying in the Herald, 30 Nov 2019.
I was wrong. I had my money on saline.
It may have been saline, or a fake needle, either way it was not real.
Or could have been just nose candy!

Officer Tatum
The first mate on a ship decided to celebrate with a bit of
stowed-away rum. He got so drunk that he was still a little
drunk the next morning. Later in the day, when the first
mate had sobered up, he looked in the ship’s log. He read
the Captain’s entry for the day: “The first mate was drunk
today.”
“Captain, please don’t leave that in the log,” the mate
said. “This could add months or years to my becoming a
captain myself.” “Well, is it true?” asked the Captain,
knowing full well it was. “Yes, it’s true,” admitted the
mate.
“If it’s true, it has to stay in the log. That’s the rule.
If it’s true, it goes in the log. End of discussion!” said
the Captain sternly. Weeks later, it was the first mate’s
turn to make the log entry. The first mate wrote: “The ship
seems to be in good shape. The Captain was sober today.”
I don’t generally support the death sentence. In this case, I’d pull the trigger.

Hung Drawn and Quartered
On 23rd August 1305 William Wallace (Braveheart ) was found guilty of treason and sentenced to death in London.
Wallace was killed using one of the most brutal punishments in the medieval era: he was to be hung, drawn, and quartered.
To warn others away from rebellion, Wallace’s head was dipped in tar and placed on a pike on London Bridge.
There are plenty of bridges in New York
What have you got against Crucifixion it could become a public spectacle many would pay to view.

Where do I subscribe ?
Fauci is right, but for all the wrong reasons. He could probably pass a lie detector test.
Because it wasn’t a lab leak. It was the deliberate infection of athletes at the World Military Games complex with the Covid-19 bio-weapon.
An almost exact mirror of the way the
Spanish FluBacterial Meningitis was distributed through returning troops at the end of WW1.https://rumble.com/v6dtbmp-thank-you-dr.-fauci.html
Yes, I have seen that hypothesis more than once. Would also explain how they came up with a “vaccine” so quickly. Every fucker with inside knowledge of this operation should rot in jail for the rest of their lives. Includes our politicians who were in with the whole scam. I have never really hated people much, but this bunch I despise.
Bet Fauci is shitting himself that Trumpy doesn’t resind his pardon!
Trump is inddicating the use of the autopen will void all pardons.
Really interesting. Steve Witkoff, long time friend and now appointed emissary of President Trump talks about the president’s ability to change the world by building sincere relationships with world leaders.
PS: I had to reIoad to finish Iistening about the ‘big bad man’ from Rsa

Steve Witkoff’s Critical Role in Negotiating Global Peace, and the Warmongers Trying to Stop Him
The Tucker Carlson Show
Steve Witkoff has no background in diplomacy but has turned out to be the most effective American diplomat in a generation. Here’s how he’s trying to resolve the conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine.
Howard Lutnick , the new Secretary of Commerce has some interesting background.
Both his parents died of cancer when he was in college so that must have been hard. He is head of an investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald and is a billionaire.
His office was in one of the Towers and he had taken his kid to kindergarten so missed being in the tower when they were attacked.
He lost his brother who was in the building.
Trump appears to be implementing a number of his policies including no tax if you earn less that $150,000 and is in support of the moves on tariffs.
I have been impressed with him so far.
…His office was in one of the Towers ….
so who really did 9/11
it was not Afghanistan nor Iraq despite USA /Bush/Cheney attacking them
fuck!! that George W Bush was a moron
Dumb as hell.
IQ of 96
plus 20 + years of booze and drugs to an already addled mind.
He was as much a puppet as biden was.
I support Trump but replacing the tax lost by not taxing the first 150,000 with tariffs is a very tall order but then Trump is playing fourth dimension chess other play checkers and some Trump policies are more wish and an opening bargaining chip. If he delivers no tax on tips whihc I think he will nad it will be widely supported if other equallt popular tax changes are defeated by the Dems te mid terms will be very interesting.

(1:22:49) Sovereign Wealth Fund strategy
(1:37:16) How his family reacted to his new role
It seems be a good pulling together of a team, so much on the same page, so much can be achieved surprisingly quickly.
A great way of bypassing the twisting lying media as posted by Ed in his early morning post.
This is transparency, so much more than radio reports, gotcha journalists, & breakfast shows.
Sure they may make mistakes, but one can figure they are actively monitoring, so whether it is a tweak, double down, but will consider a reverse if needed.
…..”no tax if you earn less that $150,000″……
Whilst I applaud the move away from income taxes on average incomes it’s worth pointing out that this will only apply to federal taxes which are progressive ranging from 10% to 37%.
State taxes will remain though these vary widely depending on where you live, eg Florida & Texas levy zero income tax. As I see it the fishhook is that spendthrift state politicians will eye the individual’s increased net income & adjust their predations accordingly. Tariffs will inevitably raise the cost of consumables as imports from low wage countries are no longer a hedge against union demands.
It will be interesting to see how it pans out.
What most in the MSM in the US miss is that tariffs do increase prices initially and if say Canada effectively boycotts US good those goods will see an excess of supply over demand -will the law of supply and demand come into effect or has Heels up Harris abolished it?
Other economic laws like currency valuations will come into play.
The Canadian dollar has eased & will drop when Canadian counter tariffs come into play.
So the Canadians exports that the Canadian government is going to place counter tariffs on, to the USA is compensated by the stronger purchasing power of the $US.
So it is not any where near so inflationary in the USA
It was the same as 2 currency, renminbi (overseas) yuan (internal) set up of China, when China did counter tariffs, so they adjusted one currency lower so there was no inflationary increase.
Just pity the Canadians if they vote that Trudeau’s party in for another term in office with Mark Carney to be Prime Minister. … sort of an Ardern ringer.
This seems to be the original template, and how so many followed, setting up their philanthropic associations of Charities, Trusts & or Foundations.
In looking at even the the first 10 minutes the entanglement of other complicit concepts become apparent of the ties to Bill Gates, Tony Blair.
I am sure howitis will complete more of those great philanthropic whose who of Foundations, Charties etc.. & plenty more to add to his list. 😀 So many grifters tie in to the Swamp.
The incoming government grants, from the World, in billions meant that others could steal also, still leaving plenty.
It seems many of those Presidential Pardons over the decades seem to be all part of the backhanders.
I dare say in NZ too, there will be interconnections too, like within John Tamihere’s “no responsiblty” with Waipareira Trust as commented on today.
https://ysb.co.nz/have-your-say-335/#comment-435224
Then there is The Helen Clark Foundation (Māori: Mahi a Rongo) is a New Zealand-based independent, non-partisan public policy think tank hosted by Auckland University.
So there is big connections to USAID as Australia universities sees their funding evaporate as mentioned above & so in 1 form or another with NGO’s or whatever to NZ universities.

Follow the Money: Whistleblower SHREDS Clinton Foundation in Explosive Interview!
https://youtu.be/tqnd2aFyzZE
1 hour 32 minutes : Mar 23, 2025 : LionelNation : interview Charles Ortel.
….. the Clinton Foundation, exposing a cesspool of fraud and corruption that would make a mob boss blush. …..
….. a humble Clinton Library but metastasized into a sprawling web of unregulated “charities” and “health initiatives” — all unchecked, all untouchable.
The Clintons, he charges, have turned philanthropy into a personal piggy bank, dodging justice while raking in billions from shady donors.
Fox News viewers know the drill: Bill and Hillary’s slimy fingerprints are all over this grift, with their so-called foundations flouting every rule in the book.
No audits, no oversight — just pure, unadulterated greed.
Ortel slams the gutless authorities for letting this criminal enterprise skate, a glaring symbol of elite privilege.
From Haiti to health scams, the Clintons have exploited the vulnerable, hiding behind their “do-gooder” façade.
This isn’t charity; it’s a racket, and the failure to prosecute screams corruption at the highest levels. …..
In the meantime they expect the good citizen to suffer & to comply will all the rigmaroles of the pain in modern day banking.
Yet they Clinton set up does not do any disclosures, no audits are done, well are the accounts even done & presented? & continues with many violations of State & Federal laws.
A non-profit gives a “cloak of Invisibility”
This time will a case be made, & charges bought to bear, though I figure much of that will be painfully slow.
Even to snap a freeze on all bank accounts & assets.
In the meantime there is increasing scams & frauds, which we need to know about & figure, like BLM, & also celebrities, as people want to fit in.
Where does the money go?, What is it connected to? To see the contamination. To question, why are the current laws not being enforced. Even if exposed, then just a wet bus ticket.
The big money made from HIV Aids, global funding, for dirty medicines. Nicely swept under the carpet, no responsibility, no accountability.
———– – – – – – – – – – – – – –
This is more a sense of my listening to between the lines.
So a rinse & repeat for the fight against Covid for even more global funding, and now many say, do not harp back to any of those issues & problems.
Now the power of public health can be bought to bear.
So now even more world government global funding, that actually where many can figure how to support, and also to clip the ticket.
So Ardern’s speech tours, books, movies, earth-shot, & what else will emerge, will catch a few more $’s
——- – – – – – – – – – – – — – – – – ——
Take on Soros, Klaus Schwab, & many of the globalists.
One of the points, to mean business, enforce the statutes, laws, place charges, no benefit of the doubt, then tickets to be in orange in an El Salvador jail.
Trump is invigorating, “tough love” and can that continue and gather even more steam.
——————- —— ——- ——– —–
The point is will the new USA Department of Justice do any thing with the facts, connections, evidence gathered by Charles Ortel this time?
After all we know the NZ police will not look into much or press charges in NZ for any laws broken.
couple of things
1
.. the Clinton Foundation, exposing a cesspool of fraud and corruption that would make a mob boss blush. …..
YES and yes
very corrupt
As I have said.
it is ironical that in the godfather 1972 movie the old fulla godfather Brando says he wants Michael to be a Senator or Governor not a crim
but of course within 50 years the Senators and Governors are basically crims that line their pockets through graft and corruption
2
“Yet they Clinton set up does not do any disclosures, no audits are done, well are the accounts even done & presented? & continues with many violations of State & Federal laws. “
—-
Ah so like the Tamihere foundation, um I mean Waiparerra TRUST
3
“So Ardern’s speech tours, books, movies, earth-shot “
recall that not so long ago adern got USD 20 million from Melinda Gates (over and above the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation- from the USD 76 Billion divorce settlement
This wont be the only money she received , nor reward.
adern is well rewarded for her treason.
I guess luxcinda expects the same
3a
Billy Goates was already a multi millionaire or billionaire when Melinda got married. She stopped work and had 3 kids.
She got a larger settlement that MacKenzie Bezos who actually worked in the set up of Amazon.
Was that a component of silence money ?
4
The point is will the new USA Department of Justice do any thing with the facts
A. NO, not really there might be some urinating of bushfires but no fundamental change.
Trump is 78 now . He will do one term. He has been a mighty force but I don’t see successor to carry the flame of justice.
He is a one off
Some crooked events will go into hibernation.
5
This all shows how corrupt Govt is – not just in Africa or Asia – the West is crooked as fuck
UK, AU, NZ no less so
and these will not be cleaned out at all
Notional wont even redices staff numbers in real terms, just like the prior nine looong years of establishing apartheid as done by Hendrik Verwoerd Key !

https://waikanaewatch.org/2025/03/23/dr-sam-bailey-on-the-corrupt-nz-medical-council/
Love Dr Sam.
thought shes not a doctor now?
…thought shes not a doctor now…
Yes she is
just not registered to practice in NZ
She still has the qualifications
just as a doctor coming from overseas has the qualifications, but not registered
and remember
Dr 3 Pies Woods is a Doctor (PhD)
jizzy adern is a Doctor – honorary from Harvard,– like you would tell anyone about that !!
I was never a great follower of Bailey but she helped in linking to a wide range of others who were raising questions.
As initially Bailey was a bit contrary to others in her claims that there was no actual virus.
A number of others also said that, but her point was, whatever it was, it was pretty much harmless.
Eat healthy etc., sun, exercise.
Bascically “First do no Harm”
She let the Doctor registration lapse if I recall correctly, early on in the covid time, one of the reasons given being having a baby, with her partner & simply thought she would be too busy.
A year or so later after the lapsed registration, a couple of times, she tried to resign, to officially de-register and the New Zealand Medical Council, would not accept her resignation.
That was what I heard from an early 2023 video clip.
It seems like it was a “Do not go pass Go. Do not collect $200”.
Funny that as the NZMC now look to collect $150,000 based on their fines & pushing shit on her by de-registering.
Also that socialist Michael Baker & his ilk of public health piling in too.
I guess Bailey has some assets like a house with her partner, & NZMC expect her to get a mortgage, and suffer some penury paying the interest & mortgage.
She explains everything in the video.
Thanks wiseowl, finally did watch & that was a good update.
Thank goodness she is a smart cookie, and in her care & diligence in research, not only in medicine but also in law, will confound the NZMC.
As the expression is put, so far ahead of the game in playing 3 dimensional chess.
I am pleased to hear & understand that she has seemed to basically stumped the NZMC. 🙂
If they try to press for more action, as they have pushed by the recent official media releases, the NZMC badly underestimated her.
Stupid is, as stupid does, as we are all conditioned by education, & amplified by the media to have many beliefs that align with other authorities.
Sort of superstitions, which are never suppose to be questioned.
Thanks Sam Bailey, & even though you are committed to “Do no harm”, just wrench the NZMC arms, legs & tongue off.
Journalism is about covering stories……with a pillow…..until they stop moving.
