The NACC was designed to be knackerless. The ALP and LNP made sure of it. A corrupt body created by corrupt politicians and headed by a corrupt commissioner.

"I am not your King! I am not your King!" rants Demented Trump, "Ich bin Der Führer! Der Führer! Ein Reich, ein Führer, ein Arschloch!"

His choice in furniture is questionable too. 😁

I don't know precisely at what point Houso Hero Albo became a snarky little Tory but with 1 in 7 Australians now living below the poverty line and him grovelling to all sort of Big Business and lobby groups, he is well and truly out of the Tory closet now.

If there are mid-term elections next year the results will be fictional. It's likely martial law will be in place before then and as we see already with the military following Trump's orders to murder people at sea without question, the military obeying the Constitution and not him is questionable.

Richard Marles is crowing about how Australia has such a wonderful relationship with Demented Trump's USA as though it is a Good Thing. In the early 1940s there was a name for people like Marles - "Quisling".

I first wrote it a couple of years ago but without that bum fluff on his face he is a deadringer for Hitler's BFF Reinhard Heydrich.

RWNJ Candace Owens takes a claim to the High of Australia that she has been denied an implied right of political communication by being refused a visa to come here to sow discord. Meanwhile in the USA, visas are stripped from foreigners criticising the evil Charlie Kirk despite the 1st Amendment.

Dan Quayle would have been an improvement on the Demented Trump. He was as thick as brick but he wasn't demented or a felon and as far as we know he wasn't a pedophile.

As we know with Demented Trump, every allegation is an admission.

When Albanese was grovelling for votes, "No one left behind." he promised. Now the latest figures from ACOSS show that one in seven are being left behind. What is the point of this most ineffectual Albanese rabble government other than to keep the LNP rabble out?

It has been a huge mistake giving back the fascists their freedom of speech after it took 60 million lives to take it away from them in 1945.

Actually, yes.

Trump and the MAGA cult are trying to paint the Allied Forces as the Bad Guys in the fight against Hitler and Mussolini.
Neo-Nazism 101.

If he were to go to Heaven then that's a pretty good incentive to want to go to another place. I mean really, would you want to spend Eternity in his company? 79 years of him poisoning planet Earth is more than enough.

The Grattan Institute says that Australians' energy bills will be 50% lower by 2050. Yeah, right. And there'll be free beer tomorrow.

Apart from it raising the question "Lower than what?" We have long experience in such promises and predictions and how they are never delivered.

The problem with calling Trump an "autocrat" is that many MAGA cultists have no idea what the word means. They think it means Trump supports the auto industry.

Trump claims that María Corina Machado telephoned him and said she was accepting the Peace Prize on his behalf because he deserved it. meanwhile, in an anteroom Karoline Leavitt sniggers and puts the phone down after just putting on her best Venezuelan accent ever. 😂

To quote Blackadder: "The greatest work of fiction since vows of fidelity were included in the French marriage service."
