Bin Chicken 🗑𓅠Mainstream media in Australia might finally be starting to wake-up and call-out Trump and his cronies.
Years ago, the Sun-Herald used to be Sydney's broadsheet newspaper, but it has long since lost its sense of balance and political teeth after being bought-out by a succession of increasingly right-wing media moguls. It's quite remarkable that they're printing a headline like this now.
The headline is a reference to a sledge aimed at cowardly, right-wing, yes-men for their support for the invasion of Iraq, "There they are a conga line of suckholes on the conservative side of politics." It was delivered by former ALP Leader of the Opposition and aspiring PM, Mark Latham (when he still sounded sane; long before he got RWNJ brainworms). I've always wondered about that particular line, and mused that his speechwriters were tapping into a vein of former Prime Minster, Paul Keating. He once said John Howard was "Like a shiver waiting for a spine to crawl up."
Amusingly, the subeditor misnamed Jeff Bezos as "Geoff Bezos" in the caption.
