Not long ago thoughts were that there were no decent candidates and they wouldn’t be the type to lean into stuff like the above.
I for one am enjoying it
Really wish labor in Oz would learn from this and get a pitbull, who isn't Mark Latham, front and center next Fed election.
People often forget that Blair had a bulldog in that role as well, in John Prescott. Did all the angry attack stuff as deputy leader / PM and let Blair take the high ground.

Prescott was also a nod to the unions, and achieved the dream of many a working class lad made good. Being driven around in not one, but two Jaguars.

Second time today (first was our Conservative candidate wanting to 'reclaim' our history and go backward rather than looking forward) I've thought about this clip...

Funny that age is no longer so important despite the constant word salad from Trump.
So much for media liberal bias.

And most won't call him out on his lies. The Black journalists was the closest I've seen and look how he collapsed.

Maybe you should watch more “liberal” medias like NBC, ABC and read the NYT or LAtimes instead of the bs on xtwiter. :thumbup:

Fine article about Kevin Roberts, president of the heritage foundation and key architect of project 2025.

It'd be interesting to see more people attack Reps by calling them 'Stalinists' the same way they declare progressives as being 'Marxists'. :grin:

Roberts and his people really do seem like Caucasian, suit-wearing Taliban/Al-Q wannabes.

I quite like Jon Stewart, despite the overhyped US thing they all do... which usually has me switching off fairly quickly.

That though... that is fucking ace all the way through. :lol:

America's strategic stupidity stockpile, aka RFK Jr has been kicked off the New York ballot, after a Judge concluded he was lying when he claimed to be a NY resident; this was the same NY address he used in other States, & so his place on those ballots will now also probably be challenged.

Couldn't be arsed looking for the Musk thread and this is wider than him anyway. The idea that Space Karen and others are in any way interested in free speech is bullshit. It's just cheaper for them. It's like pretending that the gun lobby and NRA are actually interested in the constitution.

It’s not even the worst thing he says in that video. It’s all just incitement. It’s hard to believe that it’s allowed to be honest

Trump reckons the civilian Presidential Medal of Freedom is better than the Congressional Medal of Honor, the highest award for military, because soldiers who get it are either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets, or they’re dead. Great way to win the veterans' votes, you fuckwit.

How can any republicans who have served in the military or family have served, possibly support that piece of shit.

Didn't Captain Bone Spurs refer to Americans who had lost their lives in battle as "losers" and "suckers"?

It defies logic that anyone bar himself would vote for him.

Because any vote against the GOP is apparently a vote for communism, or whatever other negative *ism they can think off. oh and don't forget, voting against trump and the GOP means that you vote against God and that it will bring the return of the Antichrist closer :grin: :lol:

One of the guest speakers at this week's Democratic National Convention will be our very own Jacinda.

Fully expecting all sorts of rent-a-mob disruption from the Republicans. Apparently Trump is planning some "counter-programming" events in an attempt to keep the cameras on him. Expecting massive AI-generated crowds...
