Almost the entire Royal Box had left Centre Court by the time the final match of the day got underway at Wimbledon between Alexander Zverev and Jiri Lehecka at 9pm. One person however, remained in their seat: Roger Federer. A class act who genuinely loves the game of tennis. 🎾

Novak Djokovic is absolutely extraordinary. 🎾 106th men’s singles win at Wimbledon - all time record. 🎾 17th Wimbledon quarter final. 🎾A staggering 66 grand slam quarter finals - all time record.

To the Americans: I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States. And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness: You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence. This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns. Success is equated with exploitation. Ambition is looked upon with contempt. This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom. But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated. This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet. And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America: Thank God for the United States. Thank God for the wisdom of its founders. Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man. Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners. Long may your admirable country dominate the world. Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states. May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning. Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill. Thank God for the USA. Happy 250th. Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

@Jikkyleaks Indeed. Ever since I saw those 2 'Heart of the matter' Catalyst episodes and the ensuing mainstream meltdown, I quickly came to realise how the pharma industrial complex and its MSM sidekicks work to undermine legitimate science and debate

Maryanne is one of the few independent journalists in the world pushing back against the mainstream narrative in medicine... Not only do real independent journalists like this need our support but you will get stories that you will not get anywhere else.

Steve Deace just shared a little-known fact about Moderna that will blow your mind. “Moderna had never successfully brought a product to market once as a corporation.” “Until Operation Warp Speed.” “Not one single time.” Yet health officials trusted this company to inject over 200 million doses of this rushed, experimental product into your body. @SteveDeaceShow @jeffreytucker

😂The people who claim we can run our ultra-high-energy civilization on such garbage are lying. Their goal has been, since Malthus and then Heidegger, to dismantle our high-energy civilization, not "sustain" it.

the same people who shut down cheap, clean nuclear plants are now running this desperate and ridiculous "air conditioning is the problem" campaign. to call this "unserious" would be charitable. it's luddite nonsense that's just plain anti-human and anti progress. there is no such thing as a rich country with low energy usage. this is a complete, self-inflicted own goal from the same crowd who tried to seel you the "you'll own nothing and be happy" schtick.

@FootnotesGuy Thanks Aidan. I assume the CBA mentioned in the letter will be a State exercise? Is there any chance this will lead to a cessation based on it not being in the best long term interest of consumers?

Here's Penny's letter. Interpreted: "damn the costs, damn the consumers, damn the communities, damn the consultation, I'm doing it anyway, bugger off AEMO stop putting your nose into it." She does this by attempting to tick boxes on planning, contracts, and authorisation, which conform with the "anticipated" status that means AEMO doesn't check the economics, optimal timing, size etc ever again. 2/

This is the most damning and outrageous draft-final change in the latest ISP. In the draft, just Stage 1, ie one 500KV line, modelled to New England. Ongoing analysis and stakeholder engagement needed "to ascertain whether the second stage will optimise benefits to consumers..." Crystal clear that AEMO knows full well that there are no projects likely to close in the REZ, and this will be a white-elephant, with terrible costs imposed on consumers with no chance of proportional benefit. So what happened with the analysis and stakeholder engagement? Well, one stakeholder trumped all others. The NSW government wrote and declared that they're doing both lines, in a single project, and asked for it to be treated as 'anticipated' which makes it a sunk-cost in the ISP, so AEMO would not do any further analysis on whether it makes economic sense for consumers. The sheer bloody-mindedness of this move is just breathtaking. There can be no pretense now that the ISP does anything at all to coordinate investment or protect consumers. A supremely arrogant government can just over-rule the community, and consumer interests, and the ISP just nods along, puts it all in the path called 'optimal'. 1/

Think about how many institutions are now permanently discredited as a result of lying about the safety and efficacy of vaccines: • WHO, UN, IMF, WTO, World Bank, NATO • HHS, NIH, FDA, CDC, CIA, Dept. of War • All major medical associations • 3,000 colleges & universities • All mainstream media outlets • The governments of all developed countries.

This morning the Senate voted down my order for production of documents relating to Australia’s excess death rate. Why won’t Labor and the Greens vote for access to these documents? To hear more from me and stay up to date, signup to my email newsletter here: alexantic.com.au/join

@JamesMelville As an Aussie watching at a pub, never have I seen such a rapturous response to a nil all draw with so few highlights

The Australia v Paraguay game was a disgrace. It showed the huge flaws in the 3rd place qualification format. A dire 0-0 draw that conveniently enabled both teams to qualify for the knockout stage. It’s Austria v West Germany in 1982 all over again.

It genuinely amused me that people think replacing Starmer will make things better. From Boris Johnson's election onwards, we've been shuffling the bollards on the Titanic. You have to actually change direction if you want to avoid crashing into the iceberg: - End Net Zero - Make business viable again - Get welfare under control - Fund defence - Ensure equality under the law - Arrest criminals and keep them in jail - Deport illegal immigrants and close the border - Bring the civil service to heel Burnham will become as unpopular as Starmer within months since he isn't going to do any of that.

@Theo_TJ_Jordan Go Aussies! You guys have got the better of the play so far

Water breaks at World Cup is so stupid and soft. They should make them eat orange slices too.

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth. odni.gov/index.php/news…

No, it can't. The CDC, like the CIA and NIAID, became victims of their own narcicism. The only way you can reform them is to prosecute those responsible for COVID with sentences that are appropriate for the carnage they caused.

Chris Uhlmann delivers a forensic takedown of Australia's energy transition — arguing that for the first time in human history, a civilisation has chosen to move backwards to inferior energy sources. From his grandfather's Queensland childhood to the moon landing, Uhlmann traces the extraordinary wealth fossil fuels created, then asks why Australia is dismantling the system that built it.

The revelations six years later are pouring out so quickly that it is impossible to keep up much less mentally process all this: * The Director of National Intelligence has documented 120 US-funded/owned biolabs in 30 countries many of which are manufacturing and manipulating infectious diseases. * Senator Rand Paul's committee has released the receipts concerning US funding/backing of the manufactured SARS-CoV-2 virus/vaccine as part of this program. * Senator Johnson has produced definitive evidence that US public health agencies knew of the grave dangers of the shot to everyone but said nothing. * Many officials are privately admitting/proving that the whole point of lockdowns was to preserve population immunity for the shot and block other avenues toward wellness. * Hardly any of this makes the national news and one wonders if the public mind has any awareness at all.

I don't know why I'm even shocked anymore. This is an obscene transfer to households that need the funding least. This is what's driven the rapid uptake of batteries. 6/6
