Mr. Albanese goes to Washington

if you are unfamiliar with Ronni’s work, or with The Shot, here is a sample:

“Albanese’s pilgrimage to pay homage at the feet of our lords and masters, the United States of America, is over and he’s back on our selection at the Lodge. Yes, he’s finally come home with cattle now, our Anthony who’s gone a-droving, and he’s returned to enjoying the usual perks of office he loves so well. And who could deny him his perquisites after the extensive display of diplomatic foot-bathing he lavished on The Donald?”

i’m particularly amused by this para about australia’s contributions to US **self-reliance** 🙄

“While the media were obsessing over Kevin’s ancient indiscretions, Australians also missed out on the news that the US Department of War (no, that’s not a Futurama episode) will construct a 100 metric tonne-per-year advanced gallium refinery at the Alcoa plant in Wagerup, Western Australia.
The White House expanded on this minor factoid by adding that the facility will further advance the USA’s “self-reliance in critical minerals processing.” How about that for a win for Australia? Our minerals being dug up for the USA, and processed here by the USA, by a USA-owned corporation, to ship to the USA?

“Protest signs held aloft saying, End the Palestinian holocaust, are reported, written down and counted as ‘antisemitic incidents’.”

…

“This is how smoothly and cleanly pro-Israel propaganda manipulates reality. Tiny twists of the narrative, until it becomes something it isn’t and nobody notices or questions the unseen twists along the way.”

#RonniSalt always has a lovely way with words

“Yes, while snooping through the pages of a middle-aged woman he barely knew, and confronted with the image of a starving child, this wealthy privileged white male suddenly felt ‘unsafe’.”…
“The pro-Israel machine is not about balance, it’s not about objectivity. That would rely on all voices being heard and all sides being given equal sympathies and equal access to power. The pro-Israel lobby isn’t designed to balance debate nor to enrich it – it is designed to silence it. “
