The media in the US isn't just cravenly supine in addressing the Trumpist regime's atrocious behaviour... It's actively encouraging it.

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

The picture from
The article with a picture of an armed men standing in front of a burning donut shop. You must click through to read the caption “
Two National guardsmen stand guard outside a burning donut shop in Los Angeles on April 30, 1992.
The National Guard was called in to aid police during the second day of rioting in the city.”

Only Labor Govt’s build infrastructure in our city. The Lib Tories wanted to shut this down & build more freeways increasing congestion & emissions. Kennett even closed schools & railway lines, outsource hospitals but Labor build stuff for future generations. 👍🏼✊🏼
