Argentinian President Javier Milei’s first speech before the General Assembly held little back. The chainsaw-wielding Libertarian took a proverbial axe to the ideological weeds choking the life out of the UN’s original mandate.

Most of us know there is a draft bill before the Parliament with a verbose title: Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill. Its name alone should tell us something smells. The answer to bad speech is MORE speech, not less.

A major point of a digital ID is not to identify yourself, but to track and trace your every move. As always, it is about control; it is about Big Brother keeping an eye on you and making sure that we all stay in line and remain subservient to the all-powerful State.

From our initial analysis, we have significant concerns. While the Misinformation Bill is an improvement on the previous iteration, and provides some protections for religious speech, it still puts the power of censorship in the hands of unaccountable private corporations.

Family First is officially back. After being voluntarily deregistered as a political party in 2017, the party that began life in March 2004 has re-entered politics in 2024. The Australian Electoral Commission approved Family First’s application on 20 September.

Legislative council member Ben Hood will today introduce a bill into the South Australian upper house seeking to prevent the deaths of viable babies killed through late-term abortion.

As with bits of most government legislation, the Misinformation Bill is worded in such a way as to sound quite innocuous and safe – even helpful and necessary. But that is so often not the case, and the opposite outcome is what we must fear.

It is with a deep sadness that we inform you that the committee report for the Termination of Pregnancy (Live Birth) Amendments Bill (Babies Born Alive Bill) has now been released. The recommendations for the Bill state: ‘the committee has recommended that the Bill not be passed.’

There is much spiritual warfare in this season. This is evident by assassination attempts, Israel fighting for its survival, fraudulent elections, and abhorrent laws being put forward by godless politicians.  We need to be able to fight, not flesh and blood, but with faith in the heavenlies.

Based on the few values and policies that Kamala Harris has actually clarified this close to the election, she and Tim Walz would be the most left-wing administration in American history – one that would be harmful to women, to people of faith and especially to the unborn.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is neutralising any potential cover-up of the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump. An executive order issued two Sundays ago launched an immediate and independent investigation to ensure transparency and accountability.

If the federal senate of our nation cannot model respectful debate and the free exchange of ideas, even those it strongly disagrees with, then the very nature of our democracy is not only "harmed", but irreparably undermined.

Labor’s Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill 2024 attempts to label opinions and facts, that don’t suit the government’s narratives, as “misinformation”, “disinformation”, or “harmful” on social media.

Day one of the defamation trial of expelled Liberal MP Moira Deeming against Victorian Opposition Leader John Pesutto has further exposed the shabby treatment of her and women’s rights issues by the Victorian Liberal Party.

Speaking about the Sex Discrimination Amendment (Acknowledging Biological Reality) Bill 2024, Senator Chandler said the removal of "woman" from the 2013 act wasn’t an oversight: “The Labor Party deliberately turned the act designed to protect women into one designed to punish women.”

The problem with the government’s approach is that it goes way beyond truth and lies, but about an arbitrary judgment by faceless bureaucrats of what is or isn’t true or what is or isn’t harmful. 

After its first highly successful Walk for Life last year, Love Sydney’s annual event will continue to build momentum for the pro-life movement.

Ryan Routh, brandishing an AK47, was able to get within 400m of Trump as he played a round of golf not far from his Mar-a-Lago home. Two assassination attempts in two months. Is it me? Or is this now becoming a pattern? The Democrats have murder on their minds.

We now have had two assassination attempts on former President Donald J. Trump in two months. Thankfully, both attempts have not succeeded, but how many more such attempts will occur?
