Random Notes - Idle ThoughtsRandom Note #187,692 — Brussels boiling frogs
Brussels is the host of the NATO conference this weekend and is Jihadi franchise central for terrorism in Europe but these boiling frogs and all round euro-cretins see fit to march and rally in protest against Donald Trump.
ABC boss Michelle Guthrie demands apology from Quadrant — Chris Kenny, The Australian
If you want to talk about “sick and unhinged” Michelle Guthrie, last weeks rehashing by your ABC of “Troughman” from the Sydney gay scene in the 1980’s is a good place to start. Troughman’s trick was to visit gay bars, lay in the urinal and allow patrons to urinate on him.
Seems pretty cut and dried and above board — The Letters That Clear Trump: Andrew Bolt
The chain of letters starting from Deputy Attorney General Rob Rosenstein that led to the sacking destroy the conspiracy theory. They make crystal clear that Trump haters were actually right the first time – back during the election campaign – when they insisted Comey had trashed the reputation of the FBI by his handling of the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server for her official emails.
James Delingpole — Penises Cause Climate Change; Progressives Fooled by Peer-Reviewed Hoax Study
The fact that such complete drivel was published in a social science journal, the hoaxers argue, raises serious questions about the value of fields like gender studies and the state of academic publishing generally
Hillary Kremlin — Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal: New York Times
The latest Time Magazine has arrived. Don’t know why I bother with it really. But again, it’s worth asking the question: Given Hillary’s Russian connections and her pay for play, would they have done likewise if she had won the White House? Dumb question, I know.

Some Perspective
Media’s choice is between truth and propaganda: Jennifer Oriel — The Australian
No matter what else you read today THIS would have to be the read of the day. If you never understood the phrase “The Long March Through The Institutions” (and the media is one of the key, institutions) the overt manifestation of the orchestrated media campaign over the last 6 months, culminating in the last 10 days, is exhibit A.
“…We know how Donald Trump’s presidency will end. The process is familiar. It begins with a politician elected by the people to introduce secure border and rational immigration policies that benefit the national interest. Said politician is conservative and patriotic. He is Christian. He is proud of his culture: Western culture. The PC establishment despises him. The left media class undermines him. A mob of wreckers forms to destabilise his government. The wrecking crew comprises faceless men who leak to the press with impunity; publicly funded activist networks in the media, academia and NGOs; supranationalist organisations such as the UN and EU; and professional protesters. If Donald Trump wants to know what is coming, he should study the rise and fall of Tony Abbott…”
Monica Crowley unloads
Now the fake media have desperately latched on to a casual aside and are trying to peddle the line that Trump is in the pay of Putin. Again, they miss the point. He’s independently wealthy, a billionaire who doesn’t need to be in the pay of anyone and doesn’t even draw down his Presidential salary.
We’re not in Kansas anymore Toto — Uni holds workshops on ‘male privilege’ — The Australian
Privileged” male students have been told to be more like women by curbing their confidence and refraining from dominating or showing off during classes, following workshops run by the University of Melbourne Student Union. Men should also acknowledge that being born male and white affords them certain privileges and reconsider the use of “Australian banter” during tutorials because of the risks of excluding students from other cultural backgrounds.
The return of facts, and their habit of destroying lazy arguments — Mark Textor, Business Insider
Facts are powerful. But look around at political and social commentary today. The use of real facts to prosecute an argument is the exception, not the rule. Instead, we get what people “think”
