The Brown Note

You know MAGA are a cult because they have reversed position on almost everything they once held sacrosanct. It's been a wild story arc to get to child trafficking, foreign wars for oil, federal rights over state, free speech attacks - all apparently okay now. But when did these free thinkers become such bootlickers?

We all thought Trump would stop short of global conflict to distract from the Epstein files, we were wrong. A few truths about the twenty-five year push from the USA to overthrow the DEMOCRATICALLY elected government of the world's largest proven oil reserves - Venezuela.

For once in my life I'm genuinely proud of the person who runs the country, he's measured, thoughtful and seemingly possesses good judgement. But is he actually even more intelligent than I gave him credit for? The common media consensus is the push for a post Bond-massacre royal commission has been a disaster for him. But has it? 

After weeks of a foreign nation completely owning our commercial news media and half our nation's politicians, screaming for a hugely pro Israel push for a royal commission into the Bondi Massacre,. it's time to ask who runs Australia. 

My list of the best and worst people of 2025 - including Sydney Sweeney, Anthony Albanese, Eurovision, Virginia Giuffre and more!

I cannot believe I was dumb enough to miss off my number one hero of 2025 - Ahmed Al Ahmed - happily this legend needs no introduction.

Exactly what it says it is, in a terrific year for album length releases.

In one of the most egregious acts in a history of them, the Australian news media has united to use the national tragedy of the massacre of Jews at Bondi Beach last week, solely to attack the Palestinian rights movement. Antisemitism here is only defined as opposition to Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip and the elephant in the room - the world's biggest driver OF antisemitism and international war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, never gets mentioned.

Few believe that Jeffrey Epstein's best friend of two decades, Donald Trump, broke up with him over Epstein's behavior towards young girls. Most Know it was over a Palm Beach property deal. Fewer know the juiciest part of this whole story - the accusations of Trump laundering money for Putin connected Russian Oligarchs.

Six months back I posted how Sussan Ley was only ever an interim manager for Australia's Liberal party, and would be rolled (likely over climate change) for yet another even more populist right wing goon squad. The only thing that's changed is the dim-witted Angus Taylor has been replaced by Andrew Hastie, a genuine christian MAGA. They STILL have no desire to win back the center. They will never ever learn.

I can't think of more successful activism in the last thirty-years than gay rights, which came from the notion understanding a group of people opposed to you today, could be allies tomorrow. Trans rights has been dominated by modern punitive activism, that has put many offside. Is the constant linking of the two dragging gay rights down?
