Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

The ABC has employed Latika Burke who does not hide her partisanship. Her posts about the current national tragedy are appalling. We need to send complaints about this to ABC…have just submitted mine.

Despite our differences, I consider Phil Coorey an intelligent man. And so I am staggered that he could have written something so disconnected from reality and decency. There is so much wrong with this that I'm going to have to break it down bit by bit. I hope he reads it 🧵

Only congress can legally change the name of this building. Therefore no matter what the board voted this is criminal vandalism of a federal building and all involved can be charged!
The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington donned a new name — the Trump-Kennedy Center — on the exterior of the building, just a day after President Trump's hand-picked board voted to change the arts institution's name.

Now the coverup is out in the open. This is far from over. Everyone involved will have to answer for this. Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, whole admin. Protecting a bunch of rapists and pedophiles because they have money, power, and connections. Bondi should resign tonight.

Paycheck journalism. ie- you only get paid if you write unrelentingly & negatively about @AlboMP and Labor. Which is fine. We all need to make a living. Just don’t call it journalism.

Hanson has done more than any other politician to foster division in Australia. Her words to mourners after the horrific attack ring hollow

An Opposition Leader of any decency, with the future of the nation at heart, would extend a hand to the government and say: in the interest of national unity, how can we work through this together? How can we help ? But no. The whole rotten crew are flat out point scoring.

@CSinclairtv Americans pay tariffs. The revenue goes to the govt. China reponds to the tariffs by reducing (chiefly farm) imports from the US. Trump then seeks to compensate those farmers with money raised from Americans in their tariff payments. China’s trade surplus hits new records.

Since the August anti-immigration rallies, roughly a dozen national polls have been published. Every single one places Labor between 54% and 57% on two-party preferred. So no, the issue hasn’t hurt them. Immigration remains a topic of high salience for conservatives, but very

Trump and co are governing like they will never face the will of the people again. That’s not hubris, it’s not delusional, it’s the plan. There will not be free and fair elections ever again

They want to go after "Antifa" because it has no leader, no organization, no bank accounts, etc... This way they can say anyone is Antifa. This way they can do anything they want. That's it. That's the whole Tooth Fairy/Santa Claus/Antifa fantasy. It's to go after YOU.
