I thought so, too. Rudd got those deals through. He also speaks fluent Chinese and that helps in the current context.

The Australian Christian Lobby, disagreeable busybodies urging wrong calls since 1996.

4 photos in a square consisting of Trump in front of Tesla cars with Elon Musk at the White House and Trump shaking Musk's hand at a Tesla plant. The bottom two pics are, Dutton strolling across in front of American cars at a car dealership in Queensland (in an advert endorsing the car dealer) and Dutton shaking the hand of the car dealer at the same car yard. Trump is wearing his usual blue suit with a red tie that looks like an enlarged tongue and Dutton is dressed as a potato in a white shirt.

Snap Petey-poo, snap!

How in the fuck do we live in a world where it’s fine to discuss in detail a possible male *loneliness* epidemic but definitely not fine to discuss in detail an absolutely real male *violence* epidemic?

How is this fair? #auspol

At times, I am surrounded by people who are incredibly persistent in talking about how ‘Covid turned out to be nothing.’ Very strong feelings on this.
