Come to Mumma #auspol
Editorial cartoon by Pat Hudson. A large lactating sow with reddish brown hair and wearing a yellow hard-hat is lying in a pen, the structure of which resembles Parliament House. She is saying, ‘Come to Mumma” as a litter of piglets, wearing orange t-shirts with ‘PHON’ on them are rushing towards her. Two piglets, one purple one and one with orange hair are already latched on and going for their lives.

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

Facebook really doesn't want you to see the new documentary exposing Elon Musk Neither do TikTok or Google or the eX social media site. Since they won't accept paid advertising, let's do some free advertising. Go see Musk in theaters October 9 www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

When you comment the same thing on multiple posts in a thread it’s spam. You’re in an economic war. Banking credentials are a good thing.

FFS. We grew up being educated about the horror of the Holocaust & it is all the more shocking that Israel is now the perpetrator. What happened to Never Again? Israel’s lack of transparency, failure to abide by international law, and lobby groups labelling detractors as antisemitic is not helping.

The fact that Lindsey Graham has allowed this without concern signifies the fact that he is anti-Christ.
Christians in America and throughout the world look forward to the Hagia Sophia being returned to its rightful owner and it will happen when I become South Carolina's next U.S. Senator.
