After journalism, the career path leads to politics. Play it safe.

Image of Melania Trump pole dancing for Epstein isn't real. Here's the proof Melania Trump has been the subject of frequent suspicious β€œphotos” claiming to connect her to Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

Despite online claims, this photo doesn't appear in a section of the Epstein files that was supposed to be redacted. The image is fake. ❌ See the proof here. πŸ‘‡

These "Australian values" sound pretty good! Especially the bits about "freedom of speech", "freedonm of religion", "mutual respect", "tolerance" and "compassion for those in need" ... wonder if we can get some of our state premiers to sign up

An Anglican archbishop in Sydney said on TV a few years ago that, with so many religions, only one could be true. He didn't seem to consider that none could be true.

Bezos bought the Post for $250 million in 2013. Pocket money for him and an investment to curry favour with Trump the wealth enabler.
