The campaign message should be pretty simple now: Steady as she goes.
Or: Stay the course.
Maybe: Don't charge horses midstream

Interesting week. Admitted to hospital with gut pain on Monday, gallbladder removed Tuesday, home on Friday. Our public healthcare system is second to none, don't put Medicare at risk in this year's election.

I wonder how the MAGA, America first morons are going to feel about Trump committing them to spending hundreds of billions $$$ to rebuild Gaza.

Trump is normalising the idea that superpowers can annex foreign lands at will. He's not only destabilising the US but the whole world.

It's now more vital than ever to keep Dutton out of the Lodge, we do not want another LNP PM committing Australian troops to another US adventure in the Middle East. His unconditional support for Israel and Trump would make it a formality.

Has Trump just unilaterally annexed Gaza?

Netanyahu has sucked Trump into doing his dirty work in Gaza, American troops will be given the task of ethnic cleansing for Israel.

Trump thinks Gaza is a real estate deal, America has acquired some beach front property in the Middle East.

The orange shit gibbon strikes again, bloody idiot
Let me see if I understand this correctly, the orange felon ordered water to be released from two Dams in California into flooded farmland instead of sending any of it to Los Angeles to help with the wildfires? What an evil stupid piece of shit.

Dutton's big plan to reduce spending:
Sack 36,000 public servants saving $24B and replace them with consultants and contractors for just $30B.
LNP can't manage money.

Trump calls for ethnic cleansing in Gaza, authorises the sale of 2,000lb bombs to Israel and removes sanctions on West Bank settlers in just his first week. This is what Dutton's "unconditional support" for Israel will look like.

Trump will destroy America just like Musk destroyed Twitter.
Gee wonder what happened?

Hilarious. Trump's executive order on gender declares that gender is determined by embryonic reproductive cells "at conception". Given that male reproductive cells don't form until week 6 has he just made everyone legally female in America? Settles the trans woman issue.

Dutton is nothing if not consistent, every allegation is a confession:
"Albo is politicising antisemitism!"
"Albo is engaging in culture wars!"
Yeah, good on yer Spud.

Firstly, why is Dutton launching a campaign when the election hasn't been called yet?
Secondly, could he have found a smaller room to launch it in?
Thirdly, how long before he tells us "they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats!"?

When the LNP is in government all we hear is "steady as she goes", "don't rock the boat", "stay on course".
When Labor is in government all we hear is "it's not enough", "why haven't you done.....?", "why haven't you fixed......?"
It shits me.

The Steam hardware survey popped up on my gaming PC the other day. It correctly identified all my hardware but didn't see my VR headset despite it being plugged in and turned on, I even had Steamvr on. I didn't submit the survey. Is this why Steam stats show such a low VR uptake?

Albo, thanking front line workers
