The NSW Police were shaking the hands of the neo Nazi marchers.
But pro-Palestine marchers were pepper sprayed.
And those protesting the export of F-35 parts to Israel were bashed by police (eg Hannah Thomas).
Minns has thrown his lot behind Jillian Segal and the Israel war machine.

But one cannot then blithely move on to a consideration of whether Epstein ever explicitly accused Trump of misconduct, let alone do what the Washington Post did today—sufficient misconduct for the paper to be shuttered—and publish *this* vile headline:

You can’t just pick out the email where the convicted pedo calls him dirty Donald and the one where Epstein says Donald was in the room with a victim for hours and the one where he says Donald knew about the pedophilia and the one about Donald and teens in bikinis, you’ll give people the wrong idea
