I have a habit of saying exactly what I think. I also have a habit of not thinking about what I say.

The one thing that has struck me most about the United States right now, is not Trump's brazen and ruthless dismantling of democracy, systems and people, it's the fact the United States is either too afraid or genuinely powerless to do anything about it.

Loving this Labor government. I got an extra hour of daylight and it didn't cost me anything!

Bill: Anyone thinking government trying to control social media is a bad thing, hasn't been listening to social media.

Ben: Anyone thinking government trying to control social media is a good thing, hasn't been listening to government.

Ladies and Gentlemen

The President of the United States.

No, it really is.
Yes. It IS.
Really.

If only the United Nations had the balls to say, through every leader, every nation, in unison, that Trump is not only delusional and mentally unstable, he is a threat to the entire planet, politically, financially and ecologically.

It has to be said. Diplomacy my arse.

Q: Is Tylenol actually bad?

A: Well, that depends. Has the CEO ever said bad things about Trump?

And of course, as soon as most of the world sanctioned Russia, the war stopped...

C'mon Shoebrdge, your attempts at world order from the back rows would be about as effective as your party is at winning seats.

Let the government do what has to done. All the eggs all at once will just make a mess.

Using the same logic as Trump and his idiot Kennedy, my partner never took Tylenol or Panadol or any pain relief at all during her pregnancy.

We have an autistic son.

Therefore...

Given the amount I pay per year for my medications is capped, if you don't lower the cap, it's going to cost me the exact same amount Jim.

Keep hearing these bigots clamouring 'I'm not against immigration, just mass-migration' when they're pressed.

So put a number on it dickhead. A number.

Perhaps draw up a list of which 'race' you prefer and give that to the media instead of vague, gutless drivel.

Shalom House boss steps down, says he was 'muzzled' on immigration views

The head of a controversial WA drug rehabilitation service says he will resign so he can speak out against "mass migration".

The Australian media reporting on 25 members of US congress decrying Australian support for an independent state of Palestine fail to mention the important context that there are 535 Members of US Congress.

In Trump's treasonous head, they are one and the same.

Safety before dignity is an admirable trait.

Did this chap realise his own goal?

If Israel can 'take out a General 200 kilometres away', why does it need to indiscrimately murder 70,000 people and level an entire country - UNLESS the intent is to kill as many as possible and cause as much destruction as possible?

Saw a Q&A screen in doctor's surgery this morning asking which Australian swimmer won the most gold at 1972 Munich Olympics.

Answer: Shane Gould, HE won 3 gold.

'Just kill 'em'

I am struggling to believe this was said. Where the fuck is America going!?!

Another small crowd for today's far-right rally.

Perhaps each little splinter group could have its own float? Nazis, sovereign citizens, cookers..

We could call it ‘Redneck Moomba,’ and school kids could line the streets and throw the leftovers of their lunch boxes?

Think of the tourism!
