I still had power and only found out there was a major outage on social media. Weird how the grid works like that.

There is a story in an Iceland newspaper that a key witness for the USA in the Julian Assange prosecution and extradition lied. This has so far received very little mainstream media coverage anywhere else in the world.

The reason is I don’t think the mainstream media is actively reporting on the case is because no one actually cares about what happens to Assange anymore. The only ones who are left supporting him are conspiracy whackjobs and anti-US organisations like various socialist groups.

He lost a lot of credibility when he directed Wikileaks to focus on destabilizing the United States (with the assistance of Russia), all while rejecting damaging leaks from the Kremlin.

This is incredible

Not sure if this is the right place to put this:

This guy is never going to get his shit together.

I wasn’t sure if there is a separate post for Andrew O’Keefe, just wondering, is the article fact, fiction or unconfirmed?

Confirmed - I saw a report on Seven News earlier this evening.

Thanks for that. Sometimes The Daily Mail posts stories without fact checking them

Commissioner Karen Webb saying in the news conference this morning saying she doesn’t know about the injuries of this offender’s hands. Even tho the police gave a conference last night. She said it’s too early.

Have to say whilst I would hardly be in the same boat as the bishop in terms of belief, violence and harm against anyone is beyond repugnant. Just awful especially since many are still reeling from the tragedy at Bondi on Saturday.

Given the background of the alleged offender I fear we’re going to see the worst of the right like Dutton, particularly given his liking to the utterly false ‘hardcore criminals’ line for anyone of remotely middle-eastern background.

Another person “known to police”. Someone has to be held accountable for these events. 2 major attacks in days and both offenders have been known to police. Not good enough. Unacceptable.
