The best way to protest when the enemy ups the ante is to change tactics, this is great.

So government transparency was only an issue for Labor when they weren't in power.

Remember when L Reynolds was advised to go into "hospital" by her cardiologist due to the stress the B Higgins story was causing her, it's funny how she now appears to be able to handle the enormous stress that comes with continuous litigations without alarming her cardiologist 🤔

I'm not surprised, FIFA is a money making machine and they are open to compromising their integrity to the highest bidder.
Their position will be whatever is in their financial interest.

Get ready for 2 years of headlines from MSM with the phrase "Andrew Hastie says" while also pitching him as the future leader of the LNP to the Australian public.

If the god damn MSM wasn't so obsessed with everything Trump, we would be hearing about another genocide currently taking place in Sudan, the silence from the media on this man-made human catastrophe is dispicable.

Like many others Tony Blair is part of a wealthy transnational predator class grifting from despair.

That's a hard no from me.

Good gravy, he is obviously delusional if he thinks anyone cares or even notices whether or not he is at #CPAC

This is something that they wanted to do anyway and were waiting for the right opportunity to lie their way into making it a reality.

Since he is such a big fan of the MAGA movement, with a bit of luck after he is finished with his government position as a useless ornament, he will haul his arse over to the US where he will be right at home as a member of the Trump cult.

And these are probably the same man babies that call women too emotional.

What's "stunning" is thinking Trump would call for unity, have they never listened to him when he speaks.

The Americanization with some of our politicians is embarrassing but not surprising considering it's the grift that keeps giving.

Successive governments have totally broken the system and all the public services have huge gaping wounds especially in housing, health, child care, aged care, NDIS and public transport, immigration, etc.
The government's solution to these massive problems is a band-aid, an inquiry or a scapegoat.

We are cooked as a country, they've set Australians up for climate catastrophe and they don't care. The relationship between the government and the private sector is so deeply intertwined you can tell who is governing Australia and who is just minding the shop.

When there are senior male LNP members waiting in the wings for the top job you can guarantee they are going to prove once again the LNP have a women problem.

The far-right really wanted a hero or a martyr they tried with Rittenhouse, then Babbitt and now they finally have one and you can bet your bottom dollar they are going to use Kirk's death as a political weapon to attack their imaginary enemies.

Of course she won't apologise, apparently you can say anything you want as a politician regardless of who it hurts and when you get called out you just get to say I did an oopsey and move on.
Very Trumpian, never say sorry and never take responsibility.
