If you are Australian yet refuse to accept our history - including being home to 50,000 years of Aboriginal culture - and you refuse to accept that this history deserves respect and recognition like Welcome to Country ceremonies, you don’t love this country. You don’t even know this country.

old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

It angers me that everyone knew the orange felon’s sole purpose was to destroy the entire US govt and the country until there was nothing left to rebuild and it was just handed to him like if it was an average shift change at work. It’s been 5 days yet has felt like a year.

Extremist, misogynistic haters have no place in Australian parliament. This is hideous stuff from Babet. Calling a woman “thing”, “witch” and “demon” is beyond offensive. I hope the senate condemns this filth.

Whitehouse: "You had a guy who Trump was proposing to be the top prosecutor for the US whose only experience with criminal investigations was to be the subject of them ... the reflection of this on the judgement of Trump is perhaps the most remarkable part of this story"

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

We could’ve had a president for every American… Instead, this.

And to be clear, he won by the slimmest margin since Al Gore, not even 50% of the vote.

This is just repulsive.
