“Americans do not act like they are in the middle of a recession.”
Correction: Boomers don’t
Boomers currently hold $83 TRILLION in wealth (51% of the total)
Millennials & Gen Z combined hold just $17T (~10%)
The "boom" you see is a retirement party;the "recession" is for everyone of working age

I wonder who is lurking to take his job. The power of the FBI has not been fully used by Patel - he is particularly inept. As Trump physically and mentally weakens further it’s easy to imagine the jostling for power going on.

And what was it even for? It’s not like Hegseth has been even been trying to justify these murders or make political hay from them. As time goes on it looks like he orders these killings just because he can, to make himself feel powerful. He, and every person involved in this, is disgusting.

There can be no claims of “just following orders”. It is straight up murder that needs to be investigated. The people involved in these horrendous crimes should only see the sun behind prison walls for many, many years.

It’s because he’s on the backbench he can be more vocal. If he was in cabinet we wouldn’t hear from him except on cabinet approved policy - just like last year prior to the cabinet shuffle.

The story of humanity is one big migration. Has he ever pondered who made up the Roman Empire? Israel? Danelaw Britain? Brazil? The USA? Miller is such a stunted person.

I have always wanted to see those marvellous Californian redwoods before I died. I’ve gone to many places to see the tallest, largest, oldest trees and touch them. But I won’t step foot in your country while that ignominious jerk and his crazy cult are ruining the possibility of peaceful travel.

They look like they hate Dan, but they *really* hate all the Victorians who kept voting Labor in no matter how hysterical they got. They don’t understand Victorians and it befuddles them, makes them feel stupid.

The real problem is that they hate Victorians because we are loathe to vote for the Liberal Party. The last time they got their perfect little Baillieu up and we all hated him and thought he was an idiot. They’re a bunch of bitter old Kennetts and if the Libs do win they will only last one term.
