This is the evil that #TurningPoint wants to bring from the #RogueStatesOfAmerica to #auspol people #PHONies
You might ask, “Why would Christian Nationalists disrupt a Christian service to arrest Christians praying? Doesn’t that violate their religious freedom?”
Because these Proud Boys are also White Supremacists and the people praying aren’t white. They only believe in religious freedom for themselves.

Coalition chaos has handed Albanese a gift, but he’ll need much more for the testing times ahead
Labor can afford a few moments of glee now, but spending, emissions, AI and Aukus are just some of the challenges on the road to the next election

Um, surely the Pilgrims in the Mayflower were migrants from the UK.
We are all immigrants. Unless you came over on the Mayflower. I am an immigrant to Canada having grown up in the US. America was built by immigrants. Some people have forgotten that.

Don Lemon "ransacked a church". Good and Pretti were "violent domestic terrorists", and somehow Obama joined forces with Cuba, China and Italy to rig the 2020 election.
If only they treated actual problems with the gravity and seriousness they do with their lies...
