As I watch Trump struggle to gain crowd enthusiasm at his Midwest rallies, I can’t help but feel a mix of disbelief and dismay. The fact that he slurs his words and rants about irrelevant topics like Master Lock and puzzles is not only comical but also deeply concerning. It’s evident that something is off with him, and it’s not just a matter of a bad day or a slip of the tongue. The man who once ran for president is now a mere shadow of his former self, and it’s painful to witness.
His campaign seems to be built on a foundation of baseless claims and grievances, rather than on a platform of substance and vision.… Continue reading
As a former educator, stories like the one about the superintendent investigating students for not applauding her daughter enough at a high school softball banquet make me question the people in positions of power within the education system. The fact that the superintendent conducted an investigation without notifying coaches or parents, resulting in a player being banned from extracurricular activities unless they signed a confession/apology is abhorrent. The abuse of power and manipulation displayed in this situation is appalling, and the fact that the superintendent lied to the school board about her actions only adds fuel to the fire.
The idea that a person in a leadership role would go to such lengths over applause for their child at a school event is beyond comprehension.… Continue reading
Ukraine’s recent decision to suspend consular services for male citizens aged 18 to 60 living abroad has sparked controversy and outrage, especially among Ukrainians residing in Australia. This move came in light of President Zelenskyy’s new mobilization law, aimed at boosting the country’s dwindling military ranks. However, the implications of such a decision raise complex ethical questions and stir up debates on patriotism, nationalism, and the rights of citizens.
For those living overseas, the prospect of being cut off from essential services, particularly the ability to renew passports, raises concerns about potential statelessness. The requirement for an up-to-date military ID and updated data at territorial acquisition centers adds another layer of complexity for those living abroad.… Continue reading
As the political landscape continues to evolve and shift, it seems that with every passing day, new controversies and absurdities arise that leave us questioning the state of our democracy and the leadership of our country. Recently, Donald Trump made the outrageous claim that liberals actually wanted him to overturn Roe v. Wade. Let that sink in for a moment. The man who has flip-flopped on this issue multiple times now has the audacity to suggest that those who vehemently support women’s rights and reproductive freedom were somehow pushing him to dismantle one of the most crucial Supreme Court decisions in history.… Continue reading
As the news broke that Hope Hicks must testify in the hush money trial, the internet exploded with speculation and commentary. Many are questioning why she didn’t report the alleged crimes that she witnessed while working closely with former President Donald Trump. It is perplexing to think that she remained silent, allowing these scandals to unfold without intervention.
Her decision to decline comment for the article speaks volumes. It is evident that she is frustrated and angry about being called to testify, believing it to be a waste of time and money. This reluctance to speak up raises suspicions about her loyalty and integrity regarding the numerous controversies that plagued the Trump administration.… Continue reading
As a liberal, it is both infuriating and disheartening to hear Donald Trump claim that liberals wanted him to overturn Roe v. Wade. Let’s set the record straight – this is a blatant lie. The reality is that a vast majority of Americans, regardless of political affiliation, support a woman’s right to choose. Poll after poll has shown that around 70% of Americans believe in upholding Roe v. Wade. So, for Trump to assert that “everybody wanted this to be done” is not only false but also a dangerous attempt to manipulate the narrative.
What strikes me the most about Trump’s constant stream of lies is his audacity.… Continue reading
Well, it’s about time. The Conservatives in the UK have finally faced the music with what has been deemed their ‘worst local election result’ in years. And honestly, it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving bunch. The days of their political grandeur and illusions of righteousness seem to have come crashing down around them, revealing them for what they truly are – a group of self-serving individuals out for their own interests, hell-bent on destroying the country in the process.
For far too long, the British populace has been subjected to the antics of these Conservative politicians, who have shown time and time again that they are utterly incompetent at governance.… Continue reading
It’s truly appalling to hear about the lenient sentence handed down to Jack Wade Whitton, the man who callously boasted about feeding an officer to a mob of Capitol rioters. The fact that he only received nearly five years in prison for such egregious actions is mind-boggling. Whitton’s violent behavior on January 6th, striking an officer with a metal crutch and dragging him into the chaos, is just a glimpse of the heinous crimes committed during the insurrection.
The fact that Whitton expressed remorse after getting caught doesn’t negate the severity of his actions. It’s clear that his so-called change of heart is merely a result of facing the consequences of his violent and traitorous deeds.… Continue reading
As I sit here reflecting on the recent news about an armed student at Mount Horeb Middle School who was shot and killed by law enforcement, my heart aches for the families, students, and staff who were affected by this tragic event. It’s a nightmare scenario that no one should ever have to experience, especially in a small, charming town like Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin, which I have had the pleasure of visiting in the past.
The fact that a 14-year-old was in possession of a gun, attempting to break through a window with it, is deeply disturbing. The epidemic of gun violence is a sickening reality that we as a society must confront head-on.… Continue reading
Teen pizza delivery driver shot at 7 times after parking in wrong driveway, police say. As I read this shocking news, my heart sank at the thought of a young person just trying to do their job being met with such violence. The fact that the shooter fired seven times at the truck without even attempting to identify a target shows a complete disregard for human life.
It’s terrifying to think that someone could be so trigger-happy, willing to potentially take a life over a simple misunderstanding. The idea that the shooter believed the teen was trying to break into his truck is absurd, and the fact that he only hit the truck three times is pure luck.… Continue reading

‘Outraged’: Ukraine cuts off essential services for military-aged men in Australia
