Trump disturbs the status quo of American politics ...

By committing crimes and destroying democracy.

I think Mickey Mouse has been dead long before this war broke out, Trooper...

No POTUS has ever:

a) committed as many crimes as Trump

b) done more to destroy democracy than Trump

In fact, no American politician has ever committed more crimes or done more to destroy democracy than Trump.

@ Reply #3,

I think Gina Rinehart, has lost some weight, since that unflattering pic was taken.

My God - she's a fat old ugly tart. Shocked

You sanctify Trump (literally) and you've this to say about Gina?

Is is just misogyny, Bobby?

But look at the state of her: Shocked

https://probonoaustralia.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/ginarinehart.jpg

I was merely pointing out the touch of the tar brush in there somewhere, and her true thoughts about this non-issue of Old Lang's comment forty years ago are clear to all... she was very supportive and prepared to negotiate over an issue she didn't bring up and the netballers did a headless chook imitation filled with virtue and stuffed it up by throwing a tantrum.

Simple really... sh1t on the hand that feeds you and you don't get fed.

Maybe she's jealous of how good those girls look?

In fact, no American politician has ever committed more crimes or done more to destroy democracy than Trump.

You are having Bbwiandsque twitches and hot flushes, unflushable.

Here are 15 things that put democracy itself in jeopardy every day:

Democracy: We can't let democracy get in the way and ruin our perfect democracy.

Independent journalism: Truth can only come from state and corporation-approved sources.

Voter ID: This is Jim Crow supersized times a billion trillion on mega-steroids. Everyone knows the freest, fairest, and most secure elections involve ZERO forms of ID.

The Constitution: It was written by slave owners who wore white wigs. Disgusting.

Questioning the results of any election Democrats won: Scary to think about.

Accepting the results of any election Republicans won: Even scarier to think about!

Squirrels: They've got to be up to something.

Only getting four COVID boosters: Your lack of compliance is disturbing.

Criticizing runaway inflation: Shame on you. It's your patriotic duty to pay more for everything.

Not giving all our money to Ukraine: Just how committed are you to defending democracy?

74 million+ people who voted for Trump: That's right, nearly half of voters are a direct threat.

Red meat: Every bite brings us one step closer to the precipice of destruction.

People praying in front of abortion clinics: Someone needs to call the FBI before democracy collapses!

People talking without Mark Zuckerberg being there to censor their conversation: Already happening in hundreds of coffee shops across America.

Tucker Carlson - REEEEEE!

Looks like the bone has been pointed at Wallam

Aboriginal netball star at the centre of the Gina Rinehart racism storm that saw the mining tycoon walk away from her $15 million sponsorship of the sport is stunningly dropped from the team for a vital warm up tournament ahead of Netball World Cup

To my mind, the outcome from all of this that would have been best for everybody would have been for Gina to distance her company from her repulsive father's comments.
Could have been a win all round. Not to mention a fabulous opportunity for positive PR and bridge building.

And how exactly is she supposed to do that?

Someone went digging for the comment made 40 yrs ago by Laing Hancock.

All those players weren't even born.

What should have been considered is that Aboriginals in WA have benefitted through royalties & employment opportunities in the Iron ore industry pioneered by Laing Hancock.

Now there are other iron ore mining companies operating & doing likewise for Aboriginals like FMG & Twiggy Forrest.

The woman(& I don't like her for other reasons) is not responsible for the thoughts/sins of her father.

No, i would say Gina Rinehart was at the centre of this.

All she needed to do was publicly distance herself from her father's odious comments.

That is all.

But of course, you lot will blame the wrong person. That's what this site is all about.

"Someone went digging".

Lang Hancock was a prolifically avowing racist.

Did you think this information was esoteric?

All Gina needed to do was publicly distance herself from his comments. Hell, she didn;t even need to mean it!

Still, she took her bat and ball and went home. In a huff.

Netball, i'm pleased to say, continues on. And a point was well made and solidarity confirmed.

Bless these women's comradery.

Bullshyte .... That's not her responsibility.

You're blaming the wrong person for a stupid decision made by Netball Australia trying to look woke.
