 The Trump impeachment show trial continues as the Democrats usual material that is unlikely to be relevant and is instead highly prejudicial to try and persuade the US public to respond emotionally to the events of January 6. It seems this trial is more about demonising Trump to the US public than anything to do with the actual impeachment trial, which it seems the Democrats are unlikely to win. The Conversation, points out that the only rules of trial in a Senate trial are the Senate procedural rules which can be changed by a majority (which the Democrats have) at any point. This trial clearly has no procedural fairness and is a sham. 

Biden signs an executive order demanding schools allow students to compete in school support in their chosen gender identity. I assume that means whether they choose to compete in boys or girls races and not that schools will now have to have individual races for every different gender identity of which there are many according to those who subscribe to gender identity theory. The rush to affirm trans rights comes at the expense of women's rights, although advocates of trans rights would strenuously deny this. There needs to be a public conversation about why we have segregated change rooms in the first place. Why we don't allow people to walk naked around the streets. This then provides a foundation for how these basic principles are then addressed in the context of trans people.

 International Relations China/Russia/North Korea/Iran China continues to assert its sovereignty over Taiwan; although, at this stage has stopped short of enforcing such sovereignty. North Korea claims to have tested a hypersonic missile. (Reuters). Russia is engaging in military activity on the Ukrainian border raising fears of an imminent invasion. Hong Kong continues to move toward resembling Chinese political culture with opponents arguing that freedom of the press and democracy itself are being restricted by government. United States/Japan/India/Australia (Quad) Japan and Australia sign an historic bilateral military cooperation agreement and Australia orders tanks from the US in addition to its recent submarine order. The closer links between Australia and Japan and the US are only going to further antagonise China.

Documenting the Fall of the West

 Biden has been certified (no pun intended) as the president-elect due to be inaugurated on 20 January 2021. Over the last four years we have seen a steady politicisation of the press and of business, and that was without a Democrat majority. In Democrat run states we have already seen destructive BLM protests (riots?) and autonomous zones operate with seeming impunity. A number of Democrat members have clearly advocated over the last four years for policies that will ensure Democrat rule for perpetuity along with the destruction of the classical liberal foundation of the United States. Only time will tell how ‘progressive’ the Biden administration will last, or how long it will last before a transition to Harris. Could we be documenting the fall of the West?

COVID:   Lockdowns abound across Australia with a mix of lockdowns in parts of WA, NT and NSW and other restrictions and border closures in other states. Originally, lockdown was justified as a means of ensuring hospitals were not overloaded; however, there seems to have been a definite shift from suppression to an elimination strategy. We would never support an elimination strategy as a means to solve the road toll problem (lockdown all vehicles would work), so why is it being implemented with COVID. The fundamental classical liberal freedoms on which our democracy was built are being rapidly jettisoned in favour of the politically popular mandatory vaccinations and lockdowns. Government Secrecy continues with the rejection of a Freedom of Information (FOI) request for the Rural Fire Service (RFS) report into the backburn at Wilpin in the Blue Mountains. The NSW Government claims that the report will be probative in the upcoming coroner's inquest and has refused to release th...
