@JohnBarronUSA Enjoyed tonight, and last week. Especially the review of Harris’s nomination event. Like the ad libbing. Like the interviews. Especially the face to face ones.

This message is to every Australian journalist covering the Reynolds v Higgins defamation trial in WA.

I have read all your articles on the Reynolds defamation trial and am curious why you haven’t included any of the evidence Ms Young presented to the Court, that seriously challenges Linda Reynolds and Fiona Brown's accounts of when they first learned of the sexual assault?

For example, yesterday Christopher Payne's Federal Court evidence was raised by Ms Young about the meeting/conversation he had with Fiona Brown on Tuesday the 26th, March 2019 which is highly significant. But not one of you bothered to cover that evidence!

And you wouldn't know it from the media coverage, but Brittany's legal team have been successfully arguing her defence so far. Furthermore, a lot of what Martin Bennett (Linda Reynolds lawyer) has been arguing has been rejected by Justice Paul Tottle.

So, what is it with the Australia media's obsession with reporting EVERY single claim against Brittany, whilst skipping over the untrue statements of Linda Reynolds and Fiona Brown?  The one sided and selective reporting is very frustrating, and is making an already traumatised rape victim, even more traumatised.

The research I have conducted over the past year, linked to below, essentially proves that both Linda Reynolds and Fiona have been untruthful for 5 years about when they first learnt that the March 23, 2019, Parliament House incident was a possible sexual assault.  

This was achieved by forensically researching all the available evidence from the ACT criminal trial, the ACT Inquiry, and the Lehrmann defamation trial. Linda Reynolds even recanted her ACT Criminal Trial evidence after my first Twitter thread was posted on the 15th, August 2023.

Yet not a single Australian media outlet has reported on any of this.

Why is it up to someone like me, who works full time, in a non-media role to spend hundreds of hours labouring over transcripts, media articles and evidence to investigate this matter properly? Isn’t that your job?

The question to all of you is why not?? Were you censored, and ordered by your editors not to write about these issues? Legal threats? Please enlighten me.

And apart from not investigating this matter properly, why are so many of you complicit with publishing a narrative that attacks and hurts a rape victim?

I would encourage all journalists in this country who have reported on this case to ask yourself what role you have played in continuing to traumatise Brittany Higgins?

PS: I wonder if any of you will have the courage and integrity to investigate and report on this breaking story?

@JANUSZCZAK Enjoying your many videos. Loved the medieval ones. Now loving Toulouse-Lautrec.

Monks saved Western civilization.

During the Middle Ages in particular, monasticism exploded in popularity—thousands of monasteries were founded to pray and care for the needs of society.

You’re a medieval peasant farmer.

You’re at the bottom rung of society—bound to the land with limited social mobility…

NEW: Investigators believe Thomas Crooks may have planned on blowing up his car as a distraction so he could assas*inate Trump.

A metal box of explosives connected by wires to a receiver were found in his car which could be detonated by a remote control on his body.

What's even more bizarre is that investigators have reportedly found *nothing* through his search history of him learning how to make homemade explosives.

In the final 48 hours leading up to the incident, Crooks went to the range, went to a Home Depot to purchase a a five-foot ladder, and then went to a gun store where he bought ammo.

Investigators have successfully broken into his phone but claim they have found no motive.

Nothing about this makes any sense.

Despite its morbid theme, it was a sensational hit in its time.

Brexit remains such a dumb decision. Nobody got what they wanted out of this. The nation collectively is worse off. The European community was weakened. Thank you @JosephPolitano for this chart.

I want to point out before starting that I hope I’m wrong. Normal reform, through laws with the common good in mind, is structurally impossible and we’re at the point where only a catastrophe will bring reform.

After mingling of a Monday night for twenty years or more with @PhillipAdams_1, it was finally time to say goodbye tonight. And I got to interview him! You can watch it here. What adventures & arguments we have had dear PA!. Thank you https://t.co/Rc6zxJGF7I via @ABCTV

It’s good that Julian Assange is home. We are supposed to help our fellow Australians in need globally. Would be good to see the successful prosecution of those who have committed the war crimes he exposed.
