Always a highlight when Laura Tingle trends . The Right Whinge Nut Job trolls dive bomb X like blowflies to a roadkill carcass. They are trying to ADVANCE but the brain is in reverse.
That moment when a British surgeon was giving testimony to the UK Parliament.
He describes how IDF drones arrive right after airstrikes in Gaza, targeting and shooting the injured, including children,right on the spot.....
Keating on Hanson - 11 November, 1996
The sting of Keating’s intellect and his ability to define Hanson’s character so succinctly is as true today as it was then.

In its worst decision in years, the Reserve Bank has pursued ideology over data and consistency and elected to keep punishing households, write Bernard Keane and Glenn Dyer. https://t.co/OeyE8oSOhQ
Opinion | News Corp has done near-irreparable damage to the relevance of Australia's news organisations. Can we dare to hope for more from legacy media? https://t.co/ryu71GoaRi
In 2022, Jane Hume trying to throw mud at Independents raged about "trust fund babies" with "hereditary privileges" trying to "subvert democracy".
The irony writes itself. #auspol
In 2022, the Coalition lost an election in which the biggest issue was climate change.
In 2025, they’re going to the election without a single policy which would decrease our carbon emissions in the next 10 years.

From Charles Pierce:
“In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba. I saw Lyndon Johnson look Richard Russell squarely in the eye and and say, "And we shall overcome."
I saw Richard Nixon resign and Gerald Ford tell the Congress that our long national nightmare was over.
I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill. I saw George H.W. Bush deliver the eulogy for the Soviet bloc, and Bill Clinton comfort the survivors of Timothy McVeigh's madness in Oklahoma City.
I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
"These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men. They were not perfect presidents, god knows. Not one of them was that. But they approached the job, and they took to the podium, with all the gravitas they could muster as appropriate to the job.
They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.
"And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons who laughed and cheered when he made sport of a woman whose lasting memory of the trauma she suffered is the laughter of the perpetrators.
Now here comes, a man swathed in scandal, with no interest beyond what he can put in his pocket and what he can put over on a universe of suckers, and he does something like this while occupying an office that we gave him, and while endowed with a public trust that he dishonors every day he wakes up in the White House.
"The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides.
We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president* as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president* so completely deserving of scorn and yet so small in the office that it almost seems a waste of time and energy to summon up the requisite contempt.
"Watch how a republic dies in the empty eyes of an empty man who feels nothing but his own imaginary greatness, and who cannot find in himself the decency simply to shut up even when it is in his best interest to do so. Presidents don't have to be heroes to be good presidents.
They just have to realize that their humanity is our common humanity, and that their political commonwealth is our political commonwealth, too.
Watch him behind the seal of the President of the United States. Isn't he a funny man? Isn't what happened to that lady hilarious? Watch the assembled morons cheer.

Jacinta Price has had to repay expenses she improperly claimed from the taxpayer 13 TIMES!!! She's under investigation for a 14th breach! Dutton has appointed her in charge of reducing govt waste! The corrupt Coalition is just trolling Australian voters now. #auspol#AusVotes25
Australians are waking up to the giant scam the gas industry has ben operating.
- draining Australia of gas- exporting 80% + of Australia’s gas
- getting over half the gas they export royalty free
- never paying PRRT on the gas they export
- price gouging us for our own gas
This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.
Paul Keating’s statement on @PeterDutton_MP’s climate change denialism and nuclear red herring is one for the ages. 👇Keating has exposed the contemptible disinformation now being deployed by Dutton/Murdoch about renewables as the market supported mitigation pathway we urgently need.
