If the proposed laws around mandatory sentences targeting alleged ‘antisemitism’ were targeting all racism and had been around during the Voice debate, we’d have had to build new jails. I’d be feeling pretty unappreciated if I was an Indigenous Australian. #auspol

From our April 2024 album (strangely)(emotional). When you say Poor Covid, it sounds like a cherubic spirit from ancient folklore. Something from Rome or Pompeii. A boogie beat with a bluesy lick. Poor Covid. youtu.be/E4mxXlj89ok?...

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

As someone who grew up hunting waterfowl in Canada, Australian duck hunting is awful. The bag limits are not sustainable, there are insufficient officers policing behaviour, and the hunters do not seem to know wtf they are doing. #WildOz

Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker - published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 - features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!

The only 4 star general to ever be removed Trump announced he was dismissing Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Charles Q. Brown & replacing him with Air Force Lt. Gen. John Dan “Razin” Caine – an extraordinary move since Caine is retired. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

“Project 2025 drew heavily on Orbán’s strategy, Scheppele adds. ‘First you defund everything your opponents do. Then you purge the civil service of those who are not loyal to you. Then you threaten the media with economic sanctions so they fall in line. You pack the courts; you cow the parliament.’”

Once more, Farage is claiming that he stood up in the European Parliament in early 2014 and predicted the Ukraine war. In fact, he stood up in September 2014, AFTER the annexation of Crimea, and blamed Europe for Putin's actions. I kept the receipts. Listen here 👇🏽 open.spotify.com/episode/77cz...
