You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Israel’s intention is clear: permanent occupation & ethnic cleansing of Palestine Netanyahu and his war criminal government need a forever war, because peace means justice. And justice means The Hague. And they will likely all hang like Saddam. #auspol #Gaza #Genocide

The Voice began as a Liberal-backed idea. Abbott, Turnbull, Morrison, even Barnaby backed recognition. Then came Dutton, Gina, Littleproud & Price. And they torched a generation of goodwill and hopes for reconciliation. #auspol #BinNight

Let me spell it out for you Jacinta, because you don’t seem to understand. People who voted No did so because you cruelly gave them permission to reject reconciliation. That doesn’t mean No voters like you. And Yes voters are devastated by what you did. You are not popular and you are not a leader.
