Ahmed the Fruiterer being the everyday hero that saved multiple lives of mostly Jewish people today is the only politics worth a pinch of shit in this act of terrorism

If you’re online tonight to comment and do anything but express empathy and solidarity to Australia’s Jewish community you need to log off forever and think about your choices.

An election campaign that started in part with a focus around fighting antisemitism ending with "were the neo-nazis right in their heckling at Anzac Day?"

I simply do not understand how a NEWS ORGANIZATION is basically existing in a stage of siege but very rarely conveys in its political coverage that we are in a state of emergency
NYTimes Publisher AG Sulzberger tells a Columbia conference that his company spends 10X as much on security as it did before Trump won his first term.

What a dimwit
Ross Greenwood trying to argue that is the economy slows the govt will need to cut, and wants to know what Taylor or Chalmers would cut.

Absolute idiocy #debate

I reckon Albo might have lucked upon his own Mark Latham - except I don’t reckon Dutts will morph into an ABC leftie talking head after he loses the election
Peter Dutton' netsat has fallen 10 points to -15 in this YouGov, his worst from said pollster to date (but he has had worse from others including current Newspoll)

With the Chinese navy hanging about with Subs etc we might have to start wondering if Aus is next. The Chinese have really upped the posturing in AsiaPac region
With the US being a complete mess - will China invade Taiwan within 12 months? Gotta be on the cards

Queensland heard this same rhetoric from Campbell Newman in 2012-15. We've done the experiment up here. Picking a number of public service jobs to cut & going in with an axe is not the way to go about achieving efficiency. #ausvotes

They just cannot fucking help themselves. The impulse to platform, normalise, and dignify fascists is, to liberal centrists, equivalent to the impulse in salmon to swim upstream to spawn.

So Europe now having to expend energy protecting itself from an ally… crazy stuff

This is North Korean dictator areas
An actual quote from this article:
Steven Cheung, the White House communications director... said that the president “is a virtuoso and his musical choices represent a brilliant palette of vibrant colors when others often paint in pale pastels.”
“I have a high aptitude for music. Can you believe that? That’s why I love music.”

That’s right. He could have been a virtuoso, big musical brain and all, but his mean old dad never allowed him to pursue his Broadway dream. And so, we’re losing our democracy because white guys won’t get therapy.

There is not a Party in Australia which is honest with itself about housing. The Libs just want the money tap to flow votes forever. Labor wants prices to rise and come down at the same time. The greens want massive public housing builds but without actually altering any suburbs. None of it is real
