US Democrats are confident a Democrat majority House will investigate the Republican corruption.
Remember when Morrison & his goons were in charge of the chequebook? And we all thought a new Labor Govt would investigate LNP corruption.
Those were happy days……..

Ian Botham on England prep for the Perth Ashes Test:
“No State match borders on arrogance. Conditions are different in Australia:
The sun, heat, bounce, crowd, Aussie players. You’re not just playing against the cricket team, you’re playing against 24.5 million people.”
27.5 million Ian.
Keep up!

Oz view behind refusal to reduce emissions:
“We are a tiny population. Our contribution is negligible”
Do these morons apply this logic elsewhere?
“Do I have to pay for this drink? The cost is negligible compared to your total turnover”

Grow up kids!

In 10 days, it will be 80 years since the Nuremberg Nazi trials began.
Only 80 years.....
It's not hundreds of years since the Nazis, but sometimes it seems like it, given how the world is failing to make the Zionist/Nazi connection.......😖

The LNP is the most minority of minority parliamentary members in decades and Insiders dedicates 75% of their program every week to them.
It’s somewhere between propaganda, sycophancy and the Stockholm Syndrome of Speers and Karvelas.

I've since lost the heart
I don't know what made me
what gave me the right
to mess with your values

Will US military leaders follow a Trump order to fight their own citizens?
Afrika Corp leader Rommel was never a Nazi but was a patriotic German soldier & described his “personal love” of Hitler.
Will this complex scenario be reflected by current US officers?
Or will they defy Trump?

Cleaned out my gutters today. First time for over 2 years.
I filled this 60 litre container with yummy compost.

1. Give wealth away to ease conscience
2. Chase the stars while underestimating the task
3. Build bunkers - but with no foundations

It’s extraordinary how many commentators are still discussing options for the next US elections!
As though they’re still gonna happen in the normal way…….
The MAGAs are not gonna let go of power.
The commentary has to start accepting & reflecting that.
