Average American Thanksgiving: President declares total ban on immigration, calls an esteemed democratic governor a slur, and then goes on TV to talk about Somalis like animals when asked about a mass shooting by a former child soldier and member of a CIA associated death squad.

It's not complicated

Israel is a cult. They view Palestinians as subhuman, and that justifies killing any of them at any time in their deranged minds.

The Palestinian Authority says the killings are a "war crime", while an Israeli minister backed the soldiers.

People can even stick up for other people!

And, weirdly, it’s not even just altruistic to do so; it’s often the best thing a journalist can do for themselves and their audience.

It's wild to see that the press corps *clearly knows how to do this* but has simply chosen not to with this administration, when it is needed the most. Deplorable behavior.
Me and the reporter from The Blade all threatened to walk out and leave the briefing room when they tried to kick out Kaitlan Collins. Trump himself wasn't there for that but it's another example. You can stick up for yourself.

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person

The Glinner article in The Observer (I ain't posting it but if you want to find it I've given you the relevant info) is WILD! The journalist is genuinely transphobic and STILL thinks Glinner is a mentally unwell danger who should stop.

Based on his current trajectory, I see his future as either (i) living on the streets screaming at passers by, or (ii) becoming the next US Secretary of Health; with no intermediate options

Such a tragic waste for someone so gifted.
Look, I'm genuinely sorry for the Graham Linehan posts. I really am. But this is just too fucking astonishing not to share. The last paragraph of an Observer interview with him. Absolutely beyond parody. He's gone. He's absolutely fucking gone.

If true, it doesn't totally surprise me, having very peripherally rubbed up against these people in my Telecom/Telstra days in the 90s

Very cloistered, which makes sense. But also arrogant: 'we are special people', which can lead to entitlement.
This spook scandal cries out for investigation. ANAO, IGIS & PJCIS should all be on the case, but there should be public scrutiny, not the usual behind closed doors cover-up. High time too for senior bureaucrats publicly disclosed their interests. #auspol
