The Daily Breakdown

For months we have been relying on experts to get us through the COVID-19 pandemic but with each passing week, it is becoming clearer that they have no idea what success looks like but failure is clear as a bell and the most likely outcome. If you think we're going to return to our lives any time soon, you are probably wrong. We explore the Massachusetts random sample that turns our response on its head, and why Greg Combet was right about Virgin and ScoMo was wrong.

Malcolm Turnbull is having a pity party and we're all invited. Cost of admission? One sad biography. Has ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr let the cat out of the bag about the length of the lockdown? And why The Guardian thinks Donald Trump is to blame for COVID-19.

The hard sell is in full gear for tracking your mobile phones. Over the weekend, state governments 'leaks' and the interviews with Commonwealth ministers started laying out the case for why they need to track your whereabouts. Don't believe a word of it: their evidence is built on lies and the hard sell isn't true either.

The Prime Minister is making the case for mass surveillance - for your own good, of course - to flatten the curve. But the data on Kung Flu is so wrong that it can't even predict tomorrow accurately, according to the University of Sydney. Malcolm Turnbull dumps a load on the Liberal Party and why I hate the Olsen twins.

Globalists are rushing to defend the WHO - an organisation which helped spread COVID-19 by falling for China's lies. The Sydney Morning Herald embraces the police state. And if Wuhan Flu or China Virus are racist (they're not) we have a much better alternative.

The Australian Government is giving you a choice: we'll let you leave your house, but you have to let us monitor your movements.

Who would have thought this would ever occur in Australia?

But your government has always wanted to do this - going all the way back to the Australia Card - only now they've found a way to make their disgusting case more 'palatable'.

Ask your friends what they would have done in Nazi Germany. Would they have joined the Nazi party or would they have fought back? Would your neighbours have snitched on you in Stalin's Russia for a blanket and some potatoes?

In just five weeks, Australia has turned into a nation of tattletales, dobbing on neighbours and standing idly by while the government and police steal our rights and we dob in our neighbours for Facebook posts.

Scott Morrison has tapped his inner Churchill (and billions of your dollars) in the economic fight against COVID-19 - and it's just a little bit nauseating, the NSW Government goes full police state to track motorists over Easter and how the DPP played to mb to prosecute George Pell in a case they knew they'd lose.

The Pell acquittal should frighten every Australian, even if you hate Pell and the Catholic Church.

Pell's team spent millions of dollars for the High Court to find that he was denied the fundamental premise of justice in Australia: guilt beyond reasonable doubt.

And in time of pandemic, when businesses are shut across the country and families are going to the wall, spare a thought for our brave university vice-chancellors who've taken a 20 per cent pay cut. But 20 per cent of what?

We've put up with a lot over the past few weeks, but Victoria Police fining an L-plater $1625 for taking a driving lesson with her mum is a step too far. The fascists are enjoying this power rush a little too much. And the social media lie the 'real' media couldn't resist.
