Like his predecessor Pope Leo XIV advocates immigrant’ rights, so MAGA hates him and say he’s pushing a Woke agenda. It’s only a matter of time before they accuse him of being a pope on a trope.

Richard Denniss is spot-on. Labor has the numbers and a mandate for change. If they don’t spend the political capital to achieve progressive goals now, then what’s the point of Labor being in power?

Everything is bad but birds are good so time to reinstitute BIRD PROTOCOL where a bird is deployed to offset endless evil vibes, please enjoy, birds are good, okay bye (photo by me)
Portrait-oriented photo featuring a wooden post with a rusted hanger hook jutting out of it, and standing atop the post, triumphant and at least slightly indignant, is a plump little bluebird. The bluebird is a male, and we see the electric blue of his head, but the predominant part facing us is the coppery-orange and pale white front. He is standing amidst little pink-and-red tree blossoms, but I like to imagine these are instead the extracted organs of his enemies. So let's just pretend this bluebird stands vengefully astride a scattering of viscera -- gobbets of gore taken as a prize from his unnatural and invasive foes. I'm sorry I've really made this a gross photo. It's actually quite nice. Kind of a dreamy vibe to it, what with the wall of yellow forsythia blurring in the background, and here I am adding drippy bits and internal organs. I'm sorry. I'll do better next time. Probably.

I hate this framing. Elon Musk and his dweeby DOGE bros illegally locked federal employees out of the most sensitive government systems and took them over. This is a coup and a heist. Accusing DOGE of being inefficient is like accusing bank robbers of irresponsibly handling people’s money.

According to Trump any country that has a trade surplus with the United States is ripping them off. Doesn’t this imply that the United States is ripping off countries that have trade deficits with the US?
