What a chaos! Elon has taken control of the treasury checkbook. He has access to Federal Systems?? DOGE has NOT been authorized by Congress to do any of this work. It’s entirely illegal. Not to be surprised at the Popok 'firm'. Watch 'Trump's Attacks on the U.S.A.' www.meidasplus.com/p/legal-af-a...

While Rupert Murdoch’s pundits at News Corporation decry welfare bludgers and ‘Their ABC’, Foxtel gets a free ride on tax. michaelwest.com.au/newscorps-fo... Count PVO in.

It's not good in the west of the state. Little Desert and Grampians are on fire again. All my favourite hiking tracks in the Grampians are gone. The area won't be usable for a few years. Heart breaking! emergency.vic.gov.au/respond/?=&b...

It is getting worse over there. Elton Musk vs Vivek Ramaswamy re DOGE. Musk wanted it to be inside the WH where he'd be granted access to top secret info. Vivek wanted it to remain outside. Vivek quits. Musk won and he is moving to an office in the West Wing. And senior Trump allies are concerned.

A proud supporter of MTN. They do more of the walks than the talks.

Just to let you know that I have watched some AO Tennis and there have been no gambling ads.

Based on Ron Filipkowski, Jan 20 via MTN, '… Trump launched his crypto and Tik Tok scams the wkend before taking office, both designed to enrich himself, family members and cronies’ net worth exponentially while doing no work n producing nothing of value for humanity'. A payday for doing nothing.

For those who missed the point. Today's Bernard Keane keeps us informed that the IPA's principles have been transformed. It has been a pipeline for Liberal preselection and a lobbying outfit for the resources industry and the Murdochs.

Act now. It is better late than never. There's been the Murphy recommendations. Reportedly, the communication minister spent months meeting with powerful gambling companies and there were political donations made by these. Full story by Michael Seccombe www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic...

You're reminded of Ruby Princess and the Virus and it was under his watch.

I look forward to the Community Independent Candidate Launch on 27 Jan 2025. Agree: 'Peter Dutton’s past in politics should have ended his career'. Pity that the NACC's been set up to protect the Labor-Liberal Party Duopoly / UniParty. Voters. Please think wisely and vote accordingly.

Popok: Trump Victim SET to COLLECT $100 MILLION?!?!

Watching a video clip on firefighting planes doing the water drops and it seems that they managed to put out the sunset fire.

It has been raining for more than half an hour. What a relief!

A decent network is welcome, but not the indecent. According to POPOK, one of the Congress members has been working around the lock trying to do what they can before the change (JOE urged to act). Also included is a video clip on how Tesla helped push Trump's win. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX3v...

Why is it okay for Gina Rinehart and other mining magnates to receive $ billions in subsidies paid for by taxpayers? The money should be put in good use.

"The COALition is 'not serious' about the policy" Your thoughts? Fire season has started. Victoria has been on fires. I was only a few kilometres from one of the fires (L photograph).

Relevant reading. Shane Dowling's point of view on the 2025 federal election kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2024/12/20/i... If you have been paying attention, it doesn't look good for democracy.

MTN scored a 1/2 hour interview with President Biden! You are bigger than Fox now. The truth will win over fake news and opinion when people see the disasterous result of electing a stupid clown, a billionaire and a billionaire's stand-in. Grab a cuppa if you are going to watch it.
