Fucksake Albo, Marles, Dutton, and the media: Of course the orange shit volcano had no damn clue what #AUKUS meant. Stop normalising his ignorance. If pressed further about Australia he would have announced "Yes, Vienna is one of my favourite cities...". #Trump #auspol

Still puzzled by people calling #Russia "Soviet", let alone "Communist". It's a gangster-fronted oligarchy - exactly what #Trump wants his America to be. Although right now, it's leaning more toward being a kakistocracy - government by the least suitable numpties available.

So, Boofhead floats a hint that Palestinians are being given shortcuts to vote for Labor. Story is easily disproven and dismissed within hours. But ask Merv and Raelene at the bowling club next week, and they'll parrot the original lie. The damage is done. #auspol www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

It's odd. For all the screeching about their "freedom" and rugged individualism, #Trump's base are now like 18th century Russian peasants - needing a authoritarian leader to tell them what to do, and a judgemental God to tell them what not to. #America?

Philistine conservatives like #Trump loathe art and culture, like they fear education and literacy. Putting himself in the Chair of the #KennedyCentre is like appointing a fish to oversee national bicycle manufacture.

It's not just that they squibbed to human anal warts like David Adler, and shafted #Lattouf - it's that they did it so ham-fistedly. Oliver-Taylor will be one under the bus, But #Ita, the "venerated ultimate media professional" was in it up to her heavily wrinkled neck. #OurABC?

Having had the misfortune of working in an organisation where #Ita was well up the chain of command, I still consider her being thought of as Australia's caring Auntie as a triumph of corporate PR over reality. #Lattouf #OurABC

Oddly, I can't bring myself to describe #Trump or Elmo as "fascists". They'd have no concept of the actual meaning of the word. They are simply entitled, emotionally stunted, rich kids just used to getting their own way. Unfortunately, the new toy they've got to break is an entire country. #America

Albanese's first and biggest mistake remains over-estimating Australia's conscience, intelligence, and empathy for those worse off. And under-estimating its gullibility for swallowing scare campaigns and dogwhistling. We remain a small and mean people. #qt #auspol

I do not recall a 24 hour or one week news cycle with more disturbing news about the state of the presidency and the US government in it than those of today and the past seven days. January 6 was nothing compared to this. But make no mistake, this too is the gov't being torn apart by a mob of thugs.

So, New White House spokesmodel Weathergirl Barbie announced a few days back #Trump stopped "$50m worth condoms going to #Gaza". Only the Gaza was a province in Mozambique. The $50m was for an AIDS prevention programme. But ask Bubba or Sherilyn next week, and you know what they'll say, right?

This is a demonstrable outright lie. No "military turned the water on". But it doesn't matter - ask Bubba and Mary-Jo about it next week and they'll tell you dear leader set it flowing, enabled by sycophants like the increasingly ridiculous Rita. #California #Water #Trump

#Dutton trying to pick a fight over #AustraliaDay is a conservative tradition. It comes immediately after their annual failed "They're trying to cancel Christmas!" scare campaign, and slightly before they start hyperventilating over #AnzacDay. Rinse and repeat. #auspol

So, an idiosyncratic little UK label is putting out a triple-disc set of the idiosyncratic little collaboration between McLennan and Kilbey, #JackFrost. Apparently you'll get both the albums they managed, and live bits and pieces. So basically, shut up and take my money. #AsSeenOnTV #AustralianMusic
