The rise of One Nation proves one thing - Aussies have had enough of the majors. I think we need a fourth option. Something like:
- The Yeah Nah Party
- The Least Worst Option Party
- The Everyone Else Is Shite Party
- The Politically Homeless Party
- The Anyone But Those Aholes

If Pauline Hanson is the answer - what was the question?
- How do we fix the system by making I even worse?
- How do we elect more people with criminal records to parliament?
- What’s the quickest way to make kiwis feel smug?

Or how about…
How do we take America’s worst political experiment, and make it Australia’s worst idea since someone said “hey, let’s import some cane toads, that’ll fix things”?

It’s a sign of the times that my first thought, when I saw the meteor lights, wasn’t that it was a UFO - it was “Trump has finally lost it and is bombing Sydney”.

🇦🇺 Meteor Fireball Lights Australia's East Coast.
Incredible footage captured from Maroubra Beach in NSW shows the bright flash lighting up the skies over the ocean tonight.

Tim Wilson appeared to be hinting at a Liberal Party/One-Nation party coalition at the next election.
Ewwwwww.

One key problem with the LNP is that they aren’t prepared to take their voters into the 21sr century. The world has changed. People are concerned. But we can’t turn back the clock which is what the LNP and ONP pretend they can do.

Angus Taylor said he was very confident that their voters wanted the LNP to preference One Nation in Farrer. Yes they did. That’s why the vast majority voted for One Nation ahead of the LNP.
Idiot.

You know what's more secure than a big new ballroom?
Prison.

“9-1-1 what’s your emergency?”
“There’s someone in the house. He’s trying to kill me.”
“Okay, what I want you to do is get to your ballroom.”
“I don’t have a ballroom.”
“…Then may God have mercy on your soul.”

The problem here is that there is empirical data to support both:
“The President is so loathsome that he would stage multiple assassination attempts to boost his popularity”
AND
“The President is so loathsome that multiple people would genuinely attempt to murder him”

I don't understand how building a new ballroom will stop Trump from staging assassination attempts.

Clearly every school in America needs a ballroom.

I just can’t imagine wanting an entire secure ballroom for one man and not wanting gun reform for every child in America.

It is difficult to see the incident at the correspondents’ dinner as anything other than staged given the White House, Republicans and Trump’s response to it was to immediately call for the ballroom to be built.
What a joke the US presidency has become.

🧵THREAD: I want you to see this clearly.
Two hours after a man with a shotgun fired shots at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, sixteen of the most prominent MAGA influencers on X all posted the same message.
The message was not "thank God the President is safe."
The message was "this is why we need the White House ballroom."

A Farce in Four Acts:
1. Trump skipped the WHCD every single year.
2. Except this one.
3. All of a sudden there’s a shooter in the lobby.
4. Trump: “This shooting is a clear example of why we need a new ballroom!”
It hardly gets any dumber than this.

For the country with the largest number of guns per capita, Americans appear to be remarkably poor shots.

There’s more dodging in Angus Taylor’s interview on #insiders than in a dodgeball match - as he bobs and weaves to avoid every question that might require him to say anything remotely negative about One Nation. What a fool.

So the Libs and Nationals are going to preference the Racists in Farrer against Independent @michelle4farrer
I shudder to think what former MP late Tim Fischer would think of this move.
Where is the outrage from John Anderson?
If anyone is still struggling to understand how America under trump has collapsed this will give you a glimpse of how to start the slide in Australia.

Angus Taylor is drowning on #Insiders trying to defend the Liberals preferencing One Nation in Farrer.
Even John Howard had the sense to put One Nation last.
The modern Liberal Party: No conviction, only contortion.
