This is what true politicization of the DoJ looks like.

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

Enabling education is a public good, a true legacy of Whitlam-era policies that assert that higher education is for everyone. Emma Hamilton, Matthew Bunn, Kieran Balloo and Sally Baker discuss FEE-FREE Uni Ready. loom.ly/NkzLxm0
