Does anyone have any insight on why the US moved its B1 bombers out of the UK in an almighty hurry? White vans and drums of petrol cannot be that much of a threat to the world greatest military.

Hey follow Victorians. If you are appalled by what is happening in the USA, then don’t vote One Nation in the upcoming election. If you don’t care fro the ALP or LNP then have a look at the Greens or Independents. Whatever you think our state’s problems are, Pauline is not the answer.

Well, what I always say, "I just want everybody to be treated good." I try not to get into the politics of everything. I try to get into the human element of it. I have some of everybody in my own immediate family and in my circle of employees. I've got transgender people. I've got gays. I've got lesbians. I've got drunks. I've got drug addicts — all within my own family. I know and love them all, and I do not judge.

And I just see how broken-hearted they get over certain things and I know how real they are. I know how important this is to them. That's who they are. They cannot help that any more than I can help being Dolly Parton, you know, the way people know me. If there's something to be judged, that is God's business. But we are all God's children and how we are is who we are.

The ABC and the rest of the worlds media refering to the illegal and often violent invaders in the West bank as settlers, they are not. They are: invaders, illegal occupiers, collonialists or worse. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08...

Israel's impunity has been virtually unaffected by collective concern
Even the United States is now criticising Israel's ongoing settler violence in the West Bank as Benjamin Netanyahu, once the "Trump whisperer", becomes the Trump ignorer.
