Interestingly, the letters of the words ‘Cory Bernardi’ can be used to make the word Conbirrrea, a close enough approximation of the dreaded pox Gonorrhoea……..🤔

Oh and bankruptcy

Oh and shitting on contractors

Oh and getting bailed out by Ruski mafia money

Oh and tasteless, tacky gold bling

Oh and cheating at golf

Oh and cheating on wives

He’s a fucking genius

The only thing less popular than Bernardi is Gonorrhea
Apparently Cory Bernardi is joining One Nation as their next ‘headline’ recruit. 🤣

Trump says he’s closing the Kennedy Center for two years for renovations, as if everyone can’t see he’s trying to hide yet another abject failure resulting from him seizing control.

Congratulations to David Littleproud who retained the leadership of a minor and irrelevant party that is so inept it is bleeding votes to Nazis.

You mum must be so proud.

Not withstanding the general idiocy of this latest thin skinned rant from the low IQ child rapist, if you are calling Noah poor then how are you going to sue him for plenty?

Is this the same kind of commercial acumen that can bankrupt a casino?

Oh I just saw Jane Hume on the news for the first time in a few months.

I forgot how utterly, excruciatingly, inexplicably idiotic she is. A genuine, world class dipshit.

Given that the govt refuses to do anything about climate change I demand that we nationalise the energy sector and give people free electricity (free air conditioning) to survive the impending heat crisis they created.

Breaking: LNP analysts and advisors figure out that neither party can ever win on their own.

Please read as: Palantir is the greatest terrorist in the world and must be destroyed from top to bottom.

It is like every govt in the world has decided to partner with a more sophisticated ISIS.

That is not hyperbole.

PROUD DAD MOMENT:

So my three youngest all started their new school in Brisbane last week. Nerve wracking for all.

Today Miss 11 won a principal’s award for positive leadership and Mr 9 was elected his grade’s student representative.

They’re so ace ❤️

Just so we are clear, the #EpsteinFiles Clive Palmer revelations are an indication of TREASON.

If true, Clive Palmer engaged in misinformation of Australian citizens in an attempt to impact an election on behalf of the interests of a foreign nation.

Aust Fed Police, over to you.
