Love watching smart people outwit thugs.

If the government is going to bail out heavy industries, the taxpayer should own a stake in future profits.

Why is something as vital as triple zero privately owned and operated?

Joseph McCarthy thought America was vulnerable to the left. Silly Joseph McCarthy.

MAGA has been promoting ‘St Charlie’ like greedy department stores pushing Santa at Christmas. It doesn't erase his vile bigotry.

Mark Latham's ex-partner sharing revenge porn? I think I speak on behalf of most here, we'd rather look at a pile of fish heads and toenail clippings. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Not even daylight savings can trick me into watching #Insiders.

Andrew Hastie enjoys punching down on migrants, and reading Psalms which he doesn’t understand very well. Psalm 10:2, 12, 17–18: “In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak..

In 1940, as fascism took hold, Winston Churchill famously described the world sinking into a new and sinister dark age. But I always think Churchill stayed focussed on the long game and remained optimistic at heart. That’s exactly how I feel about the U.S. now. No fascist state ever lasted.

Peter Dutton tried to fix his ‘woman problem’ by always appearing alongside female colleagues. After Andrew Hastie knifes Sussan Ley he’ll need to be flanked the entire Country Women's Association.

Andrew Hastie will challenge Sussan Ley and play the ‘race card’ next election. He thinks he can copy Trump better than Peter Dutton copied Trump.

Are we supposed to be happy there are still 28% of companies paying no tax in Australia? www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Only Trump could bring golf down to his level of redneck incivility.

Remember, Australia’s car industry was sent packing by the Coalition government of Tony Abbott.

Trolls get upset when I call Trump a ‘man-baby. A man-baby is someone who plays the victim without justification. It's really not complicated. news.sky.com/story/bad-es...

Migration to Australia is restricted to skilled, family, humanitarian, defence and student visas. An increase in one category is typically balanced with a decrease in another as needed. The terms ‘unplanned’ or ‘uncontrolled’ migration is dishonest, racist dog whistling from the right.

Trump is using his public office for personal retribution, ignoring the Constitution to create a dictatorship, and causing chaos to distract from the Epstein files.

There’s a brilliant SBS documentary about the famous 1986 theft of Picasso's ‘Weeping Woman’ from the National Gallery in Melbourne. I don't know what made me think of that.

Nasty. Divisive. Irrelevant. The modern Coalition. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

This ridiculous photo will silence the even more ridiculous obsession our media has with Albo not meeting Trump. So much more important than questioning $368bn for non-existent submarines.

Sussan Ley is embracing lost causes of the right, such as climate denial and Zionism, not to win government in three years but to keep her job another two weeks.

Charlie Kirk’s supporters compare him to Jesus, but Jimmy Kimmel is raised from the dead.

As the seemingly ‘many’ RWNJs defend Donald Trump and Kirk, remember Peter Dutton recently offered himself as Australia’s ‘Trump-lite’ and suffered the worst defeat in Coalition history.

I almost have more respect for the Charlie Kirk supporters who embrace his nasty, god-bothering bigotry, than the hypocrites now trying to deny his words and rehabilitate his image.

If you're a young voter concerned about climate change, the Coalition is not for you. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

The full exchange between Trump and ABC journalist John Lyons is fascinating. Trump tries to avoid a tough question with his usual gaslighting,- deflecting and attacking. John Lyons gives a master class in not getting side-tracked, not getting defensive, and sticking with his question.

Man-baby Trump threatens ABC's John Lyons and takes his lunch money. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

I miss the way we were.

Where are the business groups who need the Coalition to support migration? Why are they silent?

How come individuals get prison for major fraud, but corporations get fined for ‘misconduct.’ www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

The Coalition clown show continues as Mellissa Price is appointed shadow minister for defence industry. Ms Price is best known for insulting our regional neighbours. www.abc.net.au/news/2018-10...

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!

At this year’s election Australians overwhelming rejected Peter Dutton and his Trump-lite campaign. Good call me thinks.

Oh dear. Not a Democrat. Not a migrant. Not transgender. Tyler Robinson is a white guy from a Republican family. www.bbc.com/news/article...

ANU students say 'a true reset cannot happen while chancellor Julie Bishop remains in her role.' www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Trump, the humanitarian, is devastated by the violent death of Charlie Kirk. Two weeks ago he revoked Kamala Harris’s secret service protection. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...

Don’t mention Charlie Kirk and Karma. The people who cheered the brutal attack on 85 year old Paul Pelosi will come after you.

A contest of ideas? While some in the Victorian opposition embrace transphobia, others remain committed to traditional, good ol’ misogyny. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Most of us outside the U.S. have stopped trying to understand. “I think it's worth it to have a cost, of unfortunately some gun deaths, every single year, so that we can have the Second Amendment..” - Charlie Kirk. 1993-2025.

Jacinta Price just held a press conference to explain how good she is, to not apologise to the Indian community, and to not back Sussan Ley’s leadership. Look..at..moi..!

The Victorian government has introduced Australia’s first treaty legislation, announced 300K affordable new homes, and locked up some Nazis. And it's only Wednesday.

The Murdoch children chose badly. They could have made the world a better place by steering dad’s evil empire in a better direction. Instead, they added more zeros to their bank accounts. This path will feel empty and meaningless to them as they grow older.

Jacinta Price walking back her insults to Australians of Indian heritage is a masterclass in weasel words, gaslighting, and blah blah word-salad.

MAGA cheerleaders, Jacinta Price and Alex Hawke, are suddenly like two snakes devouring each other by the tail. Such a pity. 😆

The world's most important decisions are now being made by people whose talent is grovelling to an oaf who enjoys people grovelling to him.

Dear Vic Police. ‘Sovereign citizens’ are fiercely independent. They live off-grid, oppose authority and regard other people as sheep. But if you tell them the $1m reward won’t affect their Centrelink payments they'll dob in Dezi Freeman faster than you can say ‘Cookers-R-Us.’

Defence to be renamed 'Department of War', and commander to be renamed 'Paedophile-In-Chief'.

Q. What's the difference between a lentil and a chickpea? A. Donald Trump has never had a lentil on his face.
