We’ll never hear the Voice over the media’s loud conflict coverage

Australia is suffering internally and is a Global embarrassment in the eyes of the rest of the world. The very call to a “No vote” is living proof of a level of racist politics sustained and actioned illegally and immorally for these past 240 years. Any demand for “No” is simply proof of an Inglorious past still living in the present and that makes us an exception on the planet among those nations where First Nations Peoples were colonized and their presence went less than recognized in the name of Empire. God didn’t give White Australia this Nation just as God didn’t give Jews Israel. However, Dutton thinks otherwise.

It’s the no vote that’s dangerous.

U.S. Turned Down Offer To Manufacture Millions Of N95 Masks As Coronavirus Spread | HuffPost Australia

A company that offered to make life-saving protective masks as the coronavirus began its spread across the U.S. in January was snubbed by government officials.

Michael Bowen, the owner of medical supply company Prestige Ameritech, told the Department of Health and Human Services that he could begin producing 1.7 million N95 masks a week, only to be denied, The Washington Post first reported.

“We still have four like-new N95 manufacturing lines,” Bowen emailed a top HHS official on Jan. 22, the day the first coronavirus case was detected in the country. “Reactivating these machines would be very difficult and very expensive but could be achieved in a dire situation.”

Laura Wolf, director of the agency’s Division of Critical Infrastructure Protection, responded that the government wasn’t “anywhere near answering those questions for you yet” in response to Bowen’s offer.

“We are the last major domestic mask company,” Bowen emailed the next day. “My phones are ringing now, so I don’t ‘need’ government business. I’m just letting you know that I can help you preserve our infrastructure if things ever get really bad. I’m a patriot first, businessman second.”

The new revelation is part of an 89-page whistleblower complaint from former federal vaccine chief Rick Bright, who alleges he was removed from his position as retaliation for his early warnings about the pandemic and his refusal to make “potentially harmful drugs” to combat the virus.

Panic buying? Begging Trump for oil? No worries. She’ll be right

A speedboat of Iran's Revolutionary Guard trains a weapon toward the British-flagged oil tanker Stena Impero, which was seized in the Strait of Hormuz on July 19.

And our government is negotiating to purchase the right to some of the US stockpile, which will remain in the salt domes until we call for it to be sent our way on ships, assuming they can get here in time.

In short, if things get a bit more tricky, our choice will be panic buying at the pumps, or going cap in hand to Trump, who cares about nothing but a sweet deal … for him.

You can bet he’ll want a lot more than a pound of flesh – or the Australian military on Iran’s borders – in return.

Anyone got any old skates? It was simpler then.
