Mainstream media in Australia might finally be starting to wake-up and call-out Trump and his cronies.
Years ago, the Sun-Herald used to be Sydney's broadsheet newspaper, but it has long since lost its sense of balance and political teeth after being bought-out by a succession of increasingly right-wing media moguls. It's quite remarkable that they're printing a headline like this now.
The headline is a reference to a sledge aimed at cowardly, right-wing, yes-men for their support for the invasion of Iraq, "There they are a conga line of suckholes on the conservative side of politics." It was delivered by former ALP Leader of the Opposition and aspiring PM, Mark Latham (when he still sounded sane; long before he got RWNJ brainworms). I've always wondered about that particular line, and mused that his speechwriters were tapping into a vein of former Prime Minster, Paul Keating. He once said John Howard was "Like a shiver waiting for a spine to crawl up."
Amusingly, the subeditor misnamed Jeff Bezos as "Geoff Bezos" in the caption.

CW: stupid is as stupid does #auspol
@NewtonMark Many in the #ALP have the idea that #TrueBelievers are those who put party loyalty above self. They believe this is admirable.
More pointedly, they believe it is essential for gaining power. <confession> I envy them somewhat for their determination in this. </confession>.
However, when you've gained power, the unwritten contract with the True Believers is that you will use that power to do Good Things.
In 2004, Wong was out of power, and was forced to vote for an immorality, in order that the ALP might gain power later. (mind you, they still had the unelectable #MarkLatham as leader ... pffft)
In 2024, with the ALP in power, the equation has changed. #FatimaPayman is helping the True Believers. Giving back to them a small reason to go out to the trenches again.
The ALP absolutely needs a Senator Payton every now and then. She is their only believable answer to the criticism that they are just the Shit-Lite Party™.

#MarkLatham calls the thought of #gay #sex “puke worthy”… so we’re pretty sure he wants to have #gay #sex
When expresses such #passionate #views against our community, it makes a person question why someone such as Latham is so #preoccupied with this particular #topic, and, how, ahem, fiercely he responds to it.

In #Australia two men have been arrested after a mob clashed with #LGBT activists outside a #Sydney church, police say.
The LGBT group said "hundreds of #FarRight thugs" punched protesters outside the church event attended by right-wing politician #MarkLatham.
Mr Latham said the meeting was being held to discuss "#ReligiousFreedom & parental rights"
The incident comes days after clashes between pro- and anti-#transgender groups in #Melbourne.

@woodshed He's presuming that we aren't capable of going beyond #NetZero. Australia has enough solar energy to produce enough #GreenHydrogen to replace all of the world's gas. We could also produce synthetic "green" petroleum.

https://www.drive.com.au/news/porsche-invests-100-million-into-synthetic-fuel-venture/So #MarkLatham is right. Net Zero isn't enough. We need to further and aim for #NetNegative. We have the technology, we just don't have the will.
