It was the aggressively moustached German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, I think, who said that politics was like sausage making. Best not to look too closely at what went into it. I could check that factoid with el Goog, but I feel like living on the edge. So I’m just gonna throw it out there and perform this deft conversational pivot. There’s a bit more goes into the Boob than me just slamming down four or five angry breakfast gins on Friday and punching out new and exciting profanities for you. There’s some sausage making.
Funny but I was chatting with some senior government types as this brain-fart appeared and I posed the question — given the 5-eyes only actually exists as a loophole around the member states' own laws against self-surveillance, and given Dutton et al have already ridden roughshod over the need for such an intelligence sharing agreement to even exist any more, what does it even matter.
Someone in the room proposed that scrapping the 5-eyes is already well underway anyway, which would not actually surprise me. Ultimately people agreed this was all just a storm in teacup, but an indicator of which way the wind may be blowing. Most agreed that allowing Victoria to join the BRI is utter stupidity, but also there's not a lot the federal govt can actually do about it.
In my moments of weakness, I say to myself, “Dame, it’s an act. It’s click bait and the Animated Lavatory Muppet (ALM), the Parrot, Latho, Pru,the Divine Ms M et al are just putting it on.” But fuck me are they committed to their bit.
Well yes indeed as a Victorian most of my bubble seemed to respond with "and take your Pine Gap withy you when you leave...." but I think, desperate as Murdocracy is to cut VIC labor's Andrews off at the knees I suspect over his mild support with of the idea that renewables and batteries rather than coal might provide a decent fraction of electricity in Victoria future, this story won't run the week.
Thanks for that final note on Pompeo - so clearly a punch in the head to Andrews/Victoria - but your background certainly clears it up. So who is in charge of ABC News - it is woeful on anything to do with the US/with China/Hong Kong - clearly being fed a line - but who is most responsible? Jim

Magical talking toilet brush was all it took for my afternoon coffee to spray the screen
I'd look closely at the making of some white Angus sausage. Plenty of fat, even more filler. Get LPG to the dumbedy dumb dumb dumbest of the LP.
I <3 #BoobWorthy
As much as I am in favour of kicking the LNP when they are down, I think the Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition may deserve some booted attention.
If you can find them
Magical talking toilet brush or animated lavatory muppet?
I am having a really tough time deciding my favourite.
The muppets line did make me splurt out my tea ☕️ though.
I guess we have a winner

"President Tweety " will have me sniggering at odd moments far into the night.
