Saturday Sanity Check
You're not crazy, they are!
Actress Jennifer Lopez broke down in tears campaigning for Kamala Harris in Las Vegas at the weekend.
In her worst acting performance since Gigli, she told the crowd:
“I promised myself I wouldn’t get emotional. But you know what we should be emotional. We should be upset. We should be scared and outraged.”
Wait. Was she talking about the election? Or about Diddy?
And on that, is Diddy’s ex girlfriend really asking Americans to trust her judgement?
Anyway, the Academy Award goes to ………
Speaking of Diddy …
Lebron James has posted the most ridiculous anti-Trump video to his Instagram feed.
The video doesn’t even pretend to be legitimate.
It is a series of phrases from Donald Trump, taken completely out of context, and sliced together with incendiary footage to make it appear the Republican leader hates blacks.
The video was posted with the caption …
What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!
Lebron is an all time great baller, but stoking racial division by falsely labelling President Trump as racist when he’s anything but? It’s the biggest dribble of his career.
Not surprisingly, Barak Obama praised Lebron’s post, saying …
Thank you King James for for using your voice to make clear what’s at stake. Listen to LeBron, make sure you vote.
I say not surprisingly because Obama and Lebron have something in common, with Jennifer Lopez, I mean …
It’s amazing how just about every celebrity suddenly racing to endorse Kamala Harris is connected to Diddy.
Could be pure coincidence, of course.
Former Labor Women’s Minister Shannon Fentiman has posted a video to social media critiquing the new LNP government ministry.
She says …
“And disappointing there are only six women in this 19 member Cabinet. Since we were elected in 2015 … we always had 50 percent women sitting around the Cabinet table. So this is a pretty sad day for Queensland women and girls.”
Comedy gold when you consider that Shannon Fentiman also said this …
“Anyone who identifies as a woman is a woman. And as the Minister for Women I take a really illusive approach. all people who identity as a woman are part of our politics and strategies to advance gender equality. Because gender equality is inclusive.
How these people keep a straight face I will never know!
Deputy Greens leader Mehreen Faruqi has won her court case against Pauline Hanson.
Farqui successfully argued that Hanson racially vilified her when she told her to “piss off back to Pakistan”.
Hanson made the comment after Faruqi had posted a hateful message about Queen Elizabeth II within hours of the monarch passing away.
Anyway, Faruqi hates racism, as you can see here …
Just on that, help me understand.
Pauline Hanson cannot tell an ungrateful immigrant to go back to Pakistan, but the ungrateful immigrant can pose for a photo calling to “keep the world clean of Jews”.
What?!?!
Anyway, now that the Deputy Leader of the Greens has dealt with the supposedly racist Pauline Hanson, she might want to chat with her son …
A report today in The Australian says that only one of our Collins-Class Submarines is currently operational.
Five of the navy’s six boats are out of the water.
One has been stuck in maintenance for more than two years. Rust issues.
Another has been out of the water for five months awaiting required upgrades.
Three more are waiting for necessary maintenance.
The one submarine currently operational is being kept on “light duties” so as not to create any more wear and tear than absolutely necessary.
I know that all sounds depressing. But on a positive note, we are making good progress with changing street names to overcome our colonial past.
What a time to be alive.
Chris Bowen spent the weekend at AstraZeneca’s headquarters in Sydney.
Producers of the clot shot have installed 1,092 solar panels on the rooftop of their Macquarie Park offices.
“It’s a good day to join you, and congratulations,” Bowen told AstraZeneca staff.
I love it. Managing to get vaccines and renewables - two of the biggest scams going around - into the same news story takes some balls.
What’s next? Pfizer opening wind farms?
Very sad about Pauline H losing to that awful Faruqqi woman.
To put Shannon Fentiman out of her misery, she just needs to pretend 3 or 4 of the men in this Cabinet are women. Then she can tick her DEI box and happily continue on her path of delusion.
