Daniel Michael Andrews is a member of the Socialist Left faction of the Australian Labor Party and the Premier of the State of the Australian State of Victoria. He inflicted the longest pandemic lockdowns in the world on his people. One of his government's many victims is proud Barinkji man and courageous freedom fighter, Coco. It gives me great pride to be able to publish the little micro-movie in the above link of Coco condemning Andrews and asking his creator spirit, The Rainbow Serpent, to take Andrews away from the land. Tyrants can be defeated when all their victims unite....

The Kennedy family wasn't and isn't perfect but it was always above the likes of the Biden family and the Clinton family. Joseph Junior died as a pilot in a fighter plane in WW2 and both RFK and JFK served as best they could for freedom in that conflict. RFK Junior is now one of the best voices world wide against the trashing of human rights in ridiculous nanny state lockdown responses to Covid-19. In Australia, the freedom movement is very small but its leaders are precious, courageous people standing up against huge odds where PC stupidities dominate all major...

I am locked down very, very badly in a police state. On the weekend, China-loving Premier Daniel Andrews declared his own state a disaster because of Coronavirus figures that, while bad by Australian standards, would be the envy of most of the rest of the world. This is the Aussie equivalent of the type of treacherous stupidity that Pat Buchanan condemned in Houston in 1992 when he spoke of “politicians who only know how to build themselves up by tearing America down” Dictator Dan’s stage four lockdown fining people found more than 5 km from home $AUD 1652 ($US1,170) and...

The Left is out of control. Since it seems impossible to stop their inhuman stupidity, we must make certain that we laugh at them. Do any Freepers have some good original Joe Biden jokes they would be prepared to lend Jim Cousens?

Epstein, 66, had fatty liver disease, according to his medical records, despite not being an alcoholic or obese. He also had a 'ripped' body for his...

I asked for comments from veterans who may be able to tell me if my premise here is wrong. But, I am personally troubled by the willingness of the media to ignore what is possibly a most horrible and disgusting part of Hilary's Benghazi debacle.

A reporter is under fire for texting during the National Anthem and refusing to apologize. Helena Andrews, who writes the Reliable Source gossip column for The Washington Post, was caught on video using her cell phone as the "Star Spangled Banner" played Saturday at the 2015 White House Correspondents dinner.
