The President is selling prior access to information before announcing it. Can someone, anyone, anywhere tell me how this isn't cause for the downfall of this Administration. Democrats, if you're going to die on a hill, this one is pretty safe.
Phillip: They're saying you pay us $100,000 a month, we'll let you know first when Trump is about to tweet something that's going to move markets, how is that not insider trading?
Sands: You’re buying early notice.
Phillip: You mean non public information from a government official?
Sands: It never would’ve happened if the Democrats and Big Tech hadn’t tried to cancel him.
Ah, man. There's a lovely movie called The Dish about a bunch of Aussies tasked with beaming the signal from the moon landing to the entire world. It was the first movie I watched after 9/11, and it reminded me of much better time when everyone was watching the same thing.

"This isn’t about Hanson. It’s about the vacuum that produces her."
Thank you @TracyWesterman . This comment is spot on. The msm is promoting ON without critique and the vacuum created by a lack of vision and political boldness is fuelling it.
You can’t have democracy without good journalism.
You get the leaders your journalism produces.
Pauline Hanson walked into the National Press Club — her first address in 30 years in parliament — and the press gallery proved the point in real time.
No costings. No detail on nuclear. No follow-up on who funds her energy policy or why it was announced at a gas industry conference. Just “coal is good, wind turbines bad” — unchallenged.
@GrogsGamut called it: “Congrats to the press gallery — you showed yourself utterly useless.”
This isn’t about Hanson. It’s about the vacuum that produces her.
One question. No follow-up. No accountability. That’s the journalism that’s enabled her for 30 yrs

Socceroos:
- 18 players w direct immigrant or refugee heritage
- Over 15 different ethnic backgrounds
- 4 players born in/raised in refugee camps
- 3 players born outside Aus
If you support One Nation, then don’t support the Socceroos. Just be a racist, not a racist hypocrite.
Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, was arrested after confronting Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about Gaza during a hearing on Capitol Hill: “Congress sent the bombs that kill children in Gaza and paid for them with cuts to Medicaid,” he shouted before his arrest.
Well said. Dr Westerman. @TracyWesterman The more this is exposed, especially in regional areas the better. They must be made accountable for their actions not just their words.
Like Trump, One Nation consistently votes against the very workers they claim to champion and who vote for them. It’s difficult to understand the psychology of these voters beyond anger, racism and grievance. They’ve voted against minimum wage increases. Against better conditions for casual workers. Against stronger protections for aged care staff. The people most hurt by cost of living — low and middle income earners — are precisely the people One Nation’s Senate record has failed, again and again.
