Constitutionally Challenging the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism (Firearms and Customs Laws) Bill 2026: Constitutional Overreach and the Fallacy of Aggregated Powers, By Ian Wilson LL.B

Building on the analysis given previously in my "Gun Confiscation 2.0: The Constitution Finally Gives Gun Owners a Legal Weapon," (link below) I'm laying out a blueprint for a High Court challenge to the gun part of the legislation. Federal involvement triggers section 51(xxxi)'s "just terms" mandate for property acquisitions – a shield absent in t...

Howard Lutnick, U.S. Commerce Secretary: On the Failure of Globalisation

"Globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It's a failed policy. It is what the WEF has stood for, which is export offshore, far-shore, find the cheapest labor in the world and the world is a better place for it. The fact is, it has left America behind. It has left the American worker behind. And what we are here to say is...

When Protest Crosses the Line: Anti-ICE Actions, Legal Boundaries, and the Spectra of Escalation, By Chris Knight (Florida)

Here is a thorny issue that's rolling across the United States. If you've been following the news, you might have caught wind of the intensifying pushback against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations. A recent piece by Michael Snyder on Substack (link below) paints a vivid picture of "thousands of radicals" organising into "rapid re...

Farewell to the Fishes: New Zealand's Rockpool Crisis and the Immigration Elephant in the Room, By Peter Bennett

"The New Zealand public has got to wake up to the fact that unfettered immigration is going to import these problems, because a lot of the migrant communities have a different cultural mindset," said NZ Fisheries Minister Shane Jones. Ah, New Zealand – that pristine slice of paradise where the beaches are supposed to teem with life, not echo with t...

Exploiting Tragedy: Labor's Cynical Rollout of the Antisemitism, Hate, and Extremism Bill After Bondi Terror, By Tom North

 Just over a month after the horrific terrorist shooting at Bondi Beach, and the Albanese government's already rammed through the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism (Firearms and Customs Laws) Bill 2026like it's Black Friday at Bunnings. On the surface, it's sold as a response to rising hate and violence – fair enough, given the antis...

One Nation's Historic Surge: Overtaking the Coalition in Newspoll – No Shock When Libs Turn Labor-Lite! By James Reed

It's time to pop the champagne, or at least crack open a cold one, because the latest Newspoll has delivered a bombshell that's got the Canberra elites choking on their soy lattes. Pauline Hanson's One Nation has rocketed past the Coalition in primary votes, clocking in at a whopping 14% nationally while the Libs and Nats limp along at a pathetic 1...

You Either have Free Speech or You Don’t... By Senator Babet

 I do not support this bill in any way shape or form, not as a whole, not in part, not sliced, diced or dressed up with comforting language about "safety". The very last thing this country needs is Canberra granting itself yet more power, especially when that power is built on the wonderfully elastic endlessly subjective concept of "hate". Hat...

Sunshine in a Bottle? Unpacking Vitamin D3's Potential to Turn Back the Clock on Aging By Mrs. (Dr) Abigail Knight (Florida)

A fresh study out of the VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) – highlighted in outlets like Natural News and published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition – suggests that popping 2,000 IU of this "sunshine vitamin" daily could preserve your cellular youth by the equivalent of nearly three years. From a pro-freedom standpoint, this is empow...

Davos Elites Under Siege: Desperate Admissions of Irrelevance, But the Establishment Still Holds the Reins, By James Reed

It's January 22 2026, and the World Economic Forum's annual schmoozefest in Davos is in full swing, but the vibe this year feels less like a triumphant gathering of the world's "best and brightest" and more like a cornered animal lashing out. A fresh piece from Modernity.news (Steve Watson's take) captures the mood perfectly: "Desperate WEF Davos G...

Selling Out to China: Dario Amodei's Spot-On Warning – AI Chip Exports Are National Suicide for a Few Bucks More, By Charles Taylor (Florida)

It's time to sound the alarm on one of the dumbest policy flips since Biden's border fiasco. Dario Amodei, the straight-shooting CEO of AI powerhouse Anthropic, just laid it out plain at Davos: Letting advanced AI chips flow to Communist China is "crazy," a "big mistake," and akin to "selling nuclear weapons to North Korea." And he's dead right. Th...

The Resurrection of Australia's Hate Crimes Legislation: From Backlash to Bipartisan Compromise, By James Reed

Following in the wake of the horrific Bondi Beach terror attack on December 14, 2025 — where jihadist-inspired assailants killed innocents, including a young child named Matilda and a Holocaust survivor — Australia's political landscape shifted dramatically. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's government responded swiftly, proposing the Combatting An...

In his January 18, 2026, article "We All Know the Problem," Peter Smith delivers a scathing indictment of Australia's proposed hate speech legislation, framing it as yet another assault on free speech that accelerates the slide toward authoritarianism. Drawing on Orwellian dystopias and Christian traditions of liberty, Smith argues that these laws ...

The Quiet Coach to Tyranny: Britain’s Surrender of Liberty to the Elites' Fragile Egos, By Richard Miller (London)

I was on the 14:47 from Manchester Piccadilly to London Euston, seated in the quiet coach — those sanctified carriages where the British once pretended that silence was still a public virtue. A young man in the regulation uniform of the urban underclass (hood up, tracksuit sagging, music loud enough to rattle fillings) blasted rap through his phone...

The Terraced Barrel: Life's Hidden Architecture of Limits, By Professor X

We love to cheer for growth. From the startup unicorn to the bumper harvest, from the petri dish teeming with yeast to the Amazon rainforest swallowing carbon, to endless immigration to the West, the narrative is always more — more cells, more biomass, more life, more migrants, more! Yet every gardener who has ever over-fertilised a tomato plant or...

Down Under's Dilemma: When Your Top Buyer Starts Picking Your Locks! By James Reed

Picture this: You're a chicken farmer in the outback. One buyer takes 90% of your eggs. Then one morning your truck's tyres are slashed, the brakes fiddled with, and a note says: "Keep selling — or else." No proof yet. Just access, intent unknown, and the unmistakable message that dependence cuts both ways. That, in essence, is Australia's predicam...

China's AI Alarm: A "Jobpocalypse" Foretold from Wuzhen, By Professor X

Swirling in the misty region of Wuzhen, where China's tech elite gathered for the World Internet Conference, a voice cut through the optimism like a glitch in the matrix. Chen Deli, a senior researcher at DeepSeek, one of Beijing's most formidable AI labs, didn't mince words. AI, he warned, is barrelling toward a "jobpocalypse" that could obliterat...

Australia's Under-16 Social Media Ban: 5 Million Accounts Blocked — and the Inevitable Push to the Shadows, By Tom North

Australia has become the first country in the world to enforce a nationwide ban on social media access for anyone under 16, and the early results are staggering. As of mid-January 2026, roughly one month after the Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Act took effect on December 10, 2025, major platforms have deactivated or removed acc...

The Final Decline and Fall of the West? This Time, the Whole “Temple” Comes Down! By James Reed

The January 16, 2026, GB News opinion piece by Alex Armstrong issues a stark warning: Western civilisation is in unmistakable decline — economically, demographically, culturally — and leaders appear paralysed, doing little to confront it, engaging in managed decline. He draws a chilling parallel to the fall of Rome, which plunged Europe into centur...

The Anglo Foundations of the Anglosphere: Still Core, But Fading Fast in the US and Australia, By Brian Simpson and Chris Knight (Florida)

In a December 30, 2025, American Thinker piece titled "A Nation of Englishmen, Actually," author Matt O'Brien pushes back against Colin Woodard's regional "nations" theory of American identity, arguing instead that the United States remains fundamentally a nation rooted in English, or more broadly British, cultural, legal, and moral traditions. Dra...
