By my count: of the 29 people One Nation has ever had elected to an Australian parliament, only TWO so far hold the distinction of both making it to the end of their term, and never defecting.

(Even Hanson herself left One Nation in 2002.)

He could have said because I'm a racist and used less effort

Text from a twitter post

How come you’re allowed to disrespect First Nations Australians but criticising Israel is wrong?

Because Israel doesn’t siphon billions of dollars annually out of the economy, nor do they have a 50% domestic violence rate, nor do they burn cars and leave them on the road.

That’s the reason why.

No mention of the cause of the recession. I wonder what the Isralian is trying to hide. You can bet if Iran or any country not considered a good guy world have been the headline "Iran to cause global recession" But not "America and Trumps stupidity causes global recession"

Text in the screenshot of a post on twitter. This is in relation to a Guardian post about Pauline Hanson again failing to update her declaration of gifts to the Senator

If Pauline can’t handle the basics when everyone’s watching, imagine what slips by when they’re not.

After years in the Senate delivering nothing, this isn’t surprising.

If declaring Gina's donations is beyond Hanson, incompetence isn’t incidental, it’s the norm.

@sherelemoody.bsky.social His admiration society is quite the crowd and appears to be part of a modern church. The church based on their styling would appear to align with a lot of the RW Christians in LNP. I wonder how the church likes one of their flock being a good sinner #mensviolence

Wow!!! #health #diabetes x.com/SamaHoole/st...

Follow the link to the original post on Twitter

1850: "Diabetic patients must avoid sugar and starch entirely. Meat and fat are safe."

1900: "Diabetic patients should eat only meat, eggs, and butter until symptoms resolve."

1920: "Diabetic patients need insulin but should still restrict carbohydrates significantly."

1950: "Diabetic patients can eat moderate carbs if they take enough insulin."

1980: "Diabetic patients should eat plenty of whole grains as part of a balanced diet."

2025: "Diabetic patients should eat 45-60g carbs per meal and take metformin, insulin, and GLP-1 agonists."

Notice the pattern? As pharmaceutical options increased, carb recommendations increased.

It's not that the science changed. It's that the profit model changed.

The treatment that kept diabetics alive for centuries was progressively replaced by treatments that generate recurring revenue.

Your great-great-grandfather's doctor knew carbs were the problem. Your doctor knows you're a revenue stream.

While this was abhorrent, to ignore the Palestinian journalists in this statement is more whitewashing from the MSM. Israel murdering Palestinian journalists while denying access to foreign reporters has been equally abhorrent Do Better @australia.theguardian.com #freepalestine #MSM #journalism

Excerpt from Katherine Viner's Saturday Edition - 22 Nov 2025
The killing of Khashoggi remains the most notorious attack on a journalist in recent memory and US intelligence agencies concluded in 2021 that it was approved by the crown prince himself (Prince Mohammed has denied involvement). Mohamad Bazzi explored in depth why Trump was so happy to lavish the prince with praise, while Karen Attiah’s op-ed reflected on the visit and the “Saudification” of America, something Khashoggi warned of in his columns for the Washington Post when she was his editor.

It's interesting to read this and see how Christianity in America is enabling it all over again. Which will rise and crash this time? There isn't a pretty future for some of these people

From the book Saving a Sick America:a prescription for moral and cultural transformation

Here in America, “studies find that in the United States the irreligious are far more likely than the religious to believe in a whole array of occult beliefs such as Atlantis, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, astrology, UFOs, haunted houses, and ghosts.”34 So it is not those following the Scriptures who believe in fairy tales and superstitious myths. It is those who reject God’s Word who are more likely to do this. In the oft-quoted words of G. K. Chesterton, “When people stop believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing—they believe in anything.”35 On October 14, 1941, Adolph Hitler commented: So it’s not opportune to hurl ourselves now into a struggle with the Churches. The best thing is to let Christianity die a natural death. A slow death has something comforting about it. The dogma of Christianity gets worn away before the advances of science. Religion will have to make more and more concessions. Gradually the myths crumble. All that’s left is to prove that in nature there is no frontier between the organic and the inorganic. When understanding of the universe has become widespread, when the majority of men know that the stars are not sources of light but worlds, perhaps inhabited worlds like ours, then the Christian doctrine will be convicted of absurdity.36 Today we can say that it was not Christianity that died a natural death. To the contrary, it was Nazism that died a violent, ignominious death while the Christian faith, despite setbacks in the West, is thriving worldwide like never before. Nazism, for its part, has been “convicted of absurdity”—and far worse.
