What's making News - 2024

How do you know it's what the silent majority think, if they are silent?

Because the silent majority don’t want to be vilified, by people like you, who choose to degrade, when they don’t agree with something being said.

If you think Pauline Hanson is the only politician that says stupid things, you are deluded.

Bowen and Chalmers, in particular, are complete morons, who are ruining this country.

To be honest, I’d take Pauline as PM, over anyone in the two major parties at the moment.

Couldn’t be any worse than the dogs breakfast we have had over the last 20 years or so.

Yes, Pauline has said some things that I vehemently disagree with, particularly her comments about how children with special needs should be schooled separately, but plenty of her predictions and comments over the years are coming true.

Some people just don’t want to acknowledge it.

And so will a majority of Victorians. Setka was a thug in the BLF and was probably the 2nd major reason they got deregistered after Norm Gallagher.

With people like Setka and his strongarm cronies at top of the tree in the CFMEU nobody was game to stand up to him.
Looking forward to seeing what evidence has been found about/against him. :cup:

I briefly heard that many union delegates, being prominent MC gang, relieve millions from goverment construction projects, both state & federal.
When I heard he has stepped down, due to media intimidating him, I thought WT?
A thug, saying he was intimated.
Yeh, Nah.

Trump has been apparently shot at, a grazed/bloodied ear.
I can hear Maxwell Smart saying
"Missed by that much"

Those who are anti-Trump have been quick to claim that the dramati moment was staged. On Sunday morning, the word “staged” was trending on X, formerly Twitter, in Australia.

that was my first thought...

Ahahaha,
Yep.

I think, I asked here before.
Why are soo many Australians, so interested in American politics?
A few of the replies were, because there are a lot of American's here & America's politics effect us.
Yet many Australians Don't understand ours or want to understand.
Our news feeds are going to be dominated by American politics until November when they vote.

He went for a head shot but didn't allow for windage... Pretty close though... And nothing said about the bystander shot.. Although looking at the video, the blonde chick behind went down like she was pole axed..

from another forum..... NO idea if ti works for ruins..

Saw this workaround on Reddit(reddit.com):

        Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment
        Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
        Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
        Boot the host normally.

For those who are stuck with a corporate computer with CrowdStrike installed.
