Perhaps you could do one of the Trumps taking over the Adams Family.

Hawke-Keating and their embrace of neoliberalism paved the way for Howard. It takes 20-30 years before the full force of political consequences are felt.

Interestingly - according to @amyremeikis.bsky.social in her terrific new book - it was the McMahon government that funded NFP childcare and Hawke who extended it to the private sector. That worked out well, as you say.

I mean, the child care system does suck. Not an individual level - a lot of people work very, very hard - but it's not setup for families, it's set up for private enterprise. Take away the grift and suddenly there's an opportunity to fix it.

But they don't want that remedy.

I hear the “the government should fund my personal staff…for my children” crowd are at it again.

Guys, you just need to get a second job, pull yourselves up by your own bootstraps and have a go if you want a nanny.

Peak middle class welfare that one.

Moral double vision as Australia heads to the Gulf - Michael West Australia claimed impotence over Gaza but is now sending military support to the US-Israel war in the Gulf. Hypocrisy, writes Andrew Brown

So now we send military to the Gulf. Why was Australia so 'cautious' over Gaza, now action heroes for US-Israel war against Iran? Andrew Brown on the double standard

👇Flashback to December👇. Electricity prices (which are set by the gas price) are about to rise because our Govt places Aussies at third place behind the gas cartel and Japanese/South Korean gas consumers. #auspol

Trump just spent nearly a TV hour on gruesome death dealing fantasies in America's current war.

In Australia it is called RoboDebt.

allegedly so are the Murdochs.

Trump did pretty much everything that a foreign power could have done to drive the largely disaffected citizens of Iran into the hands of their bloodthirsty authoritarian leaders. Well done, indeed.

I think it’s time to take our country back from politicians who do the bidding of powerful people in other countries, and have made us the servants of the US.
How do we go about firing Albanese, tearing up AUKUS and kicking every American servicemen out of the country and take the bases back?

I highly recommend reading this book by @amyremeikis.bsky.social.

I thought it would bring back my small t trauma from the Howard years. It’s left me furious with @albomp.bsky.social and the other ‘leaders’ who continue to propagate Howard’s bullshit.

As pedophiles gotta pedophile, are you sure the second the Epstein operation shut down, another one or more didn't open up?

Screenshot of a news article from The Post titled “Repeatedly getting Covid doesn’t build immunity, ‘it’s more like accumulating damage’,” written by Melanie Earley of RNZ and dated March 10, 2026. Below the headline is a portrait of leading vaccinologist and associate professor Dr Helen Petousis-Harris, shown facing the camera against a dark background. The article discusses how repeated COVID-19 infections may cause cumulative harm rather than building lasting immunity.

"Leading vaccinologist Helen Petousis-Harris says there's not enough awareness of the impact of COVID-19 on overall health."

"What many people don't realise is that getting COVID repeatedly is not like building immunity, it's more like accumulating damage," she says.

Markwayne Mullin @SenM I will lead the breach. I will lay down cover fire. I will take the high ground. I'll expose myself to enemy fire to communicate. We must bring back integrity, focus, and put the Warfighter first inside DOD. I stand with @SecDef @PeteHegseth Fred Wellman @FPWellman YOU'RE A FUCKING PLUMBER! YOU'VE NEVER SERVED !!! You could have but you didn't. We had the longest war in U.S. history and you sat that shit out the whole time but now you want to be a big tough guy for the idiot that can't keep a secret. You're such a fucking joke. No one is scared of you. Go clear a drain of your own bullshit.

The entire MAGA party is built on a foundation of shameless fraud, from its leader to the lowest plebe. They're a virus.
As the country disintegrates around us, it becomes more evident each day that he, and they, are completely unfit to lead. The truth in that is the vaccine.

you don’t hate rich people enough
