I’m sure Sam Kerr and her girlfriend are wonderful people. And I genuinely wish them every happiness in life. None of that is invalidated because I don’t agree that two women can “have a baby”.

The revelation that United States emergency workers deliberately withheld help from hurricane victims they knew to be Trump supporters defies comprehension. How those claiming to be about tolerance and inclusion can act with such cruelty is beyond my understanding. The inhumanity!

It’s all very well to be angry at Daniel Andrews, but we should be angrier at ourselves! The former Victorian premier trampled human rights during the pandemic, but only because we allowed him to do so.

Either the Egyptian king had the freedom to let Israel go, or he did not. If Pharaoh had a choice, then Pharaoh hardened his own heart. But if God hardened Pharaoh’s heart — as the text says — then what choice did Pharaoh have?

For the second time in less than a week, an ACT Greens candidate has been cautioned for appearing to support Islamic terrorists. The Greens are unfit for public office. And I measure that against a very low bar.

Is that a Greens candidate, or is it a parcel that’s ticking? That’s the question that needs to be asked of the ACT Greens after their candidate, James Cruz, was found for the second time in a week to have posted incendiary remarks on social media.

Australia is now a place in which thousands of people openly support a terrorist by flaunting modified images of terrorists and terror symbols. While police insisted pro-Palestinian protestors had not done enough to be charged with supporting a terror group, Hezbollah praised protestors for their support.

Islam has become a major problem in this country. And our politicians have neither the moral clarity nor the courage to do anything about it. The Federal Labor Government are trying to sit this one out. But in a battle between good and evil, to sit idly on the sidelines is to condemn the country to hell.
