Its like watching a train collision in slow motion. The once great USA is collapsing under the insanity of its demented President.
.
Why, oh why, has no one invoked the 25th ?
.
Demanding the arrest of Barack Obama must be the last straw, or is the USA truly lost?

My socials are full of angry people ineffectively shaking their metaphorical fists, expressing their outrage.
.
“I do not like MAGA and ICE. I do not like them, Sam-I-Am.”
.
Its pointless.
.
We need to stop protesting and start legally arresting these criminals.
.
Nothing less will work.

I thought it interesting watching Pauline Hanson's reaction to being asked if she wanted to be PM...
.
The reality bites home that she might actually have to deliver on her hateful rhetoric.
.
Until now she had been safe, sniping from the sidelines.

So a white man throws a bomb (that doesn't go off) into an invasion day rally crowd, mostly first nations, their friends and supporters.
.
The language in the press is very muted.
.
Now imagine it was a Muslim and a Jewish crowd.
.
I reckon the press would go apeshit.
.
None of this is ok.

So how many people are going to have to die from climate impacts before we as a society accept the existential reality that burning fossil fuels is bad.
.
The sad thing is that there are viable, cheaper alternatives, but the vested interests don't want to change.

Ted O'Brien, Deputy Leader of the Australian Liberals, was on ABC News this morning, saying that Susssssan had full support of the Liberal Party room.

Right...
So Susssssan is toast...

Hastie or Taylor...

We are heading for a more militaristic world with more weapons, but they won't be made in the USA.

The simplicity and idiocy of thinking that you can bully someone into buying a gun and then expecting them to buy your guns is astounding.

I find that I am living in perpetual anticipation that :
1) Trump has a heart attack
2) USA invades Greenland and triggers WW3
3) Trump is assassinated
4) USA descends into Civil War

All are bad...

Would it not be simpler and best for all if Trump is simply removed from office...

What will it take.
For the USA to get its act together.
This is beyond a joke.

There is an old proverb:
Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.

Invading Greenland because Norway won't bestow the Nobel is uttter madness.

The USA has gone insane.
Destruction next ?

The potential Greenland invasion by the USA does raise the interesting question of what will the counties of the British Commonwealth do ?
.
Specifically, what will India, Canada, Australia and New Zealand do ?

And what will the world do if simultaneously China invades Taiwan ?

If there was ever any doubts that Trumps USA had left the rails of sanity, they have been disabused.

A criminal inquiry into the US Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell, because he set interest rates based on economic analysis rather than politics.

Its great to see Australia taking the heatwave seriously and taking appropriate actions to ensure survival...

Like:
Ending fossil fuel use and extraction.
Not cutting down trees.
Reducing air travel.
Eating less meat.
Consuming less.

So what are they going to do when the Royal Commission into Antisemitism finds that the major cause of hate is the Murdoch press...

That the major driver of Antisemitism is Zionism.

That the people most stoking the fire are LNP and One Nation politicians.

7 days into 2026 and I didn't expect that I would have to alter my NY resolutions so early.

I had committed to more exercise, more work, save money and lose 10kg.

My new resolution is to simply survive Wold War 3...
