You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

Israel’s intention is clear: permanent occupation & ethnic cleansing of Palestine
Netanyahu and his war criminal government need a forever war, because peace means justice.

I really appreciate this young woman telling her story about previously being a member of the Liberal Party but in this election voting Labor (for HECs discount and housing). The obvious question is, why was she ever a Liberal? They don’t serve young people.

‘Deal with the women’s issue or enjoy oblivion’: conservative women on whether they can still call the Liberal party home
Federal election defeat proves the party’s haemorrhaging of female voters is entrenched. Can it change course or will it risk ‘oblivion’?
