Important to remember that Murdoch has been part of the eugenics end of neoliberalism for decades. He’s entrenched with the Islamophobia industry. Also had Peter 👿 Brimelow and Tucker “Great Replacement” Carlson reporting directly.

Hey Greg Jennett. There was no constitutional crisis. It was a manufactured, illegal crisis, committed by Malcolm Fraser and Sir John Kerr. Along with the help of the American CIA and Royal Family. It was in fact. A Coup d'état. And Fraser performed it seemlessly. Whitlam had evidence.
