People are scoffing at the suggestion of Tim Wilson putting his hand up to lead the Liberal Party.
But hear me out.
Every Liberal still in parliament would be totally out of their depth leading the party.
No one has more experience at being out of their depth than Tim Wilson.

Peter Dutton has done more to embolden neo-Nazis and promote hatred of Welcome to Country than any other politician.
It's his own legacy Dutton is saying he's disgusted and appalled with.
And for the first time I agree with him.

To endure something must be resilient. Able to adapt and evolve.
It must be receptive to new ideas and perspectives.
Always willing to risk losing certainty for better understanding.
The world as it is now can't endure.
And we won't change it by clinging to certainty.

Article 5 establishes the principle of collective defence, which means that an attack on one NATO member is considered an attack on all NATO members.
The only time in history it has been invoked was in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States.

If a flatulent baboon had stood in for Putin's two-bit standover merchant throwing a tantrum at Zelenskyy calling his bluff it would've been a more dignified spectacle.
Any media still taking this coup of clowns seriously is just praising new clothes on a naked fool.

In Philosophy 101, the new definition of antisemetism for universities used to be called the fallacy of the undistributed middle.
Antisemetism opposes Jews
Israel & Zionism are Jewish
All opposition to Israel & Zionism is antisemism
In English 101, it was called Orwellian.

Do you support cutting 36,000 (one in five) jobs from a public service the LNP has already cut by 25% since 1996 to save $24 billion which is half the amount of tax revenue not collected last year because of 5,500 ATO jobs cut from the last time people fell for this bullshit?

It's possible that no other human being, alive or dead, who would be this miserable, petulant, unfulfilled, and pathetic if they had a net wealth US$384 billion.

This headline says everything there is to say about Peter Dutton MP.
It's all he's ever done in his political career. And all he can and ever will do.
The only trick he half-learnt was dog whistling (screamed).
The best Dutton can be is useless. He's so much worse than that.

But watching Brazil overtake the USA on the list of countries least likely to be a corporate sponsored dictatorship in 2025 doesn't feel as historically momentous as it felt when I watched the other Cold War superpower disintegrate back in 1991.
