President Eisenhower long ago warned about the power of the military-industrial complex. That continues. Amazing that the new manifestation of the US is "Christian" when their leader is the antithesis of a Christian, not just due to his criminality and misogyny but also a complete lack of empathy.

Yeah & Trump isnt even really Christian

Both Dutton and Albanese have already fastened their mouths around Trump's rectum. When the USA burns to the ground, so will Australia burn itself, while blaming China for everything.

This should be the pivot point when Australia matures and joins Asia as a fully committed part of the APAC, but doubt if the polity has the gumption to cut loose the apron strings.

And it’s as if it’s not happening for our politicians. Chalmers will go, Trump will agree then announce the tariffs are applied as soon as he’s out the door. We are not special. Just stupid and useful to the aggressor America.

we are very ,very small fry for America .We have almost no value for them ,apart from the odd convenience.

Yeah sure. Pine Gap. Outweighs every other consideration. Also tracking stations - ditto.

And the submarine bases operated by US navy personnel to be set up via AUKUS. And those deposits of rare earth minerals. Trifling, really.

roseannebyrne.bsky.social•29 days ago

It’s all so stupid. What is wrong with our politicians?

roseannebyrne.bsky.social•29 days ago

Trifling! And the troops in our north.
