Apology accepted (as an ABC contributor). But those reader comments were no better or worse than what some of your senior commentators write/tweet about the ABC on a daily basis. Time to drop the vendetta and return to the national affairs journalism that made my old paper great. x.com/australian/status/1009…

For anyone saying that Democrats are hypocrites because they aren't thrilled that an American President is legitimizing a despotic tyrant who murders his family members in order to stay in power, please watch this and then kindly f off.

When this period of history is written there will be four main characters: The brainwashed supporters, the complicit GOP, the treasonous president and the patriotic Americans who resisted them.

It’s appalling for Abbott, a former Prime Minister of Australia, to launch a book by Pauline Hanson. This is little more than sucking up to the forces of racism in Australia.

Wonder why Fake News resonates so much with Trump fans – because so much of it is fake. Just nonsense made to keep you perpetually offended with an endless stream of ‘controversies' that aren’t controversial.

As a white, middle-aged straight guy, I want @SenatorWong to be Australia's PM. Breathtakingly intelligent, empathetic, compassionate, articulate, principled. Everything our nation needs in a PM. #auspol #PennyWongForPM

70 years ago today a communist coup destroyed democracy in my native Czechoslovakia. The coup forced my family into exile, and months later we were welcomed as refugees in the USA. Ever since I’ve been a grateful American, and I’ve learned to never take democracy for granted.

The quickest way to get an answer on the internet is not to ask a question, but to deliberately post an incorrect statement. People are quicker to correct you than to answer an enquiry; it’s called Godwin’s Law. #ihaveaquestion

Someone has to explain how, in the age of #MeToo, the #1 movie in America is about a woman on a leash. #FiftyShadesFreed

A lady went to her shrink and told him that she is addicted to Twitter. He looked at her and said "sorry, I don't follow you!"
