We now live in a world without Donald Sutherland.

I wrote that when I became Trump’s national security adviser, I assumed the gravity of his role would discipline even him. I was wrong. His erratic approach to governance and his dangerous ideas gravely threaten American security. GOP primary voters should take note. More in the @WSJ. wsj.com/opinion?mod=na…

BREAKING

One of the greatest speeches in history

In a period of change and renewal for the ABC, after thirteen years, the Drum is coming to the end of its run. I am so proud of what our hardworking, dedicated team has achieved. And our thousand-odd, widely diverse panellists, who made the show shine. abc.net.au/news/2023-12-1…

BREAKING: Indicted 2024 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump violates his gag order, launches unhinged attacks against the judge and a key witness who will testify against him, opening the door for the judge to throw him in jail. Trump started off by attacking Judge Arthur Engoron on Truth Social by declaring, “The Trump Hating Judge in this case has gone off the rails. The case should have never been brought by the Corrupt, Racist Attorney General, but with any other Judge it would have been dismissed. Their Star Witness admitted he lied, “TRUMP did not Inflate Values.” The Judge says Mar-a-Lago is worth $18,000,000, when it’s 50 to 100 times that amount. I really believe he’s CRAZY! Also, I have a 100% Disclaimer Clause (reader beware!), and Financial Statements are Conservative. NO JURY! RIGGED CASE! He doesn’t care about Justice, but the PEOPLE, Lawyers, and Judges throughout the land see what is going on in his courtroom. Judicial and Prosecutorial Misconduct!!! Banks and Insurance Companies are witnesses for ME. They all made money, NO VICTIMS, No Defaults, No Complaints. This Corrupt Judge doesn’t even acknowledge or accept the decision of the Appeals Court. He Gags and Fines me constantly, for no reason. He should be thrown off the “Bench” as a giant Embarrassment to New York State!” Then, Trump dug his grave even deeper, attacking his very own former Attorney General Bill Barr, who is scheduled to testify against him, declaring, “I called Bill Barr Dumb, Weak, Slow Moving, Lethargic, Gutless, and Lazy, a RINO WHO COULDN’T DO THE JOB. He just didn’t want to be Impeached, which the Radical Left Lunatics were preparing to do. I was tough on him in the White House, for good reason, so now this Moron says about me, to get even, “his verbal skills are limited.” Well, that’s one I haven’t heard before. Tell that to the biggest political crowds in the history of politics, by far. Bill Barr is a LOSER!” Trump’s lawyers must be losing their minds right now, because Judge Engoron drew a clear line in the sand — and Trump is so unhinged that he couldn’t help but cross it. Now, Judge Engoron has no choice but to teach Trump a BIG lesson about consequences now that he’s no longer protected by the presidency. Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that Judge Engoron MUST throw Trump in jail for violating the gag order — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

Kew Cricket Club is seeking applications for a non-playing Head Senior Coach to supplement the current coaching team, which led the club to its first KG Fewster Club Championship in 2020/21 kewcc.com.au/wanted-head-se…

And that’s that.

In just four years, Donald Trump cost the Republican Party the House, the Senate, and the presidency. Well done, sir!
