Let me tell you something absolutely BONKERS from last night’s midterms…
Democrat Ericka Lomick just “won” Texas House District 93 despite being a convicted felon who suspended her campaign months ago.
She pleaded guilty in 2011 to federal charges including mortgage-fraud conspiracy, bank fraud, and money laundering. Her sentence? 63 months in federal prison.
On her candidate paperwork, she checked the box claiming she had not been finally convicted of a felony. After her criminal record surfaced in September, she suspended her campaign and stopped running.
But Texas election deadlines had already passed, so her name remained on the ballot for both the regular general election and the special election.
And voters still elected her by roughly 51–49%.
Here’s the kicker: Under Texas law, a final felony conviction generally makes someone ineligible to hold office unless they’ve been pardoned or had their disabilities released.
Meaning she can’t actually serve. Her “victory” simply creates a vacancy and triggers yet another special election.
A convicted federal fraudster who quit campaigning still got elected to the Texas House.
Let that absolutely sink in.

Just In: The police now say the Torquay Attack wasn’t politically motivated
The alleged attackers just happened travel 100km from home to rip down political posters
And just happened to allegedly beat a man unconscious for no reason
They just happened to allegedly chase him back in to his house with bleeding on the brain before allegedly smashing his car with a crow bar
Just like the attack on a Hanukkah celebrations by Islamic extremists that killed 15 people was not religiously motivated - according to police

I don’t think I’ve seen a clearer example of the sense of ethnic entitlement and contempt for Australians our governments are encouraging. Behold, the Victorian election campaign:
*Graciously invited into Australia but immediately complains that Indian and Punjabi people don’t feel welcome enough and wants to know what the government will do about that
* Labor Premier Ben Carroll is eager to agree that Australians are a problem for Indians and they need to be censored with vilification laws and hate speech laws (ie - fining Aussies and putting Aussies in prison)
*Although India is literally one of the most racist countries in the world, complains that Australia is too racist
*Identity is solely Indian and his concerns are solely for what Indians and Punjabis can get out of Australia
*Premier Carroll says that Victoria’s high education outcomes are because of Indians and Punjabis - ie, eager to encourage contempt for Aussies if it gets votes
* Says that as the Indian diaspora grows in Australia, anti-Indian sentiments are growing - ie zero self-reflection and consideration that perhaps Australians don’t want their country to become a receptacle for India’s surplus population (1.4 billion)
* Basic message is that Australians need Indians to succeed and therefore our governments will revolve around the demands of Indians while Aussies keep their mouths shut, lest they want to be fined or imprisoned.
Welcome to New Australia

Absolutely vicious, unprovoked, and cowardly attack.
A One Nation volunteer has been beaten beyond recognition and is now in hospital with multiple facial fractures and bleeding on the brain. He faces a long, brutal recovery.
This is political thuggery, plain and simple. No one deserves to be savagely attacked for their beliefs. I will be donating to support his family.
Prime Minister Albanese must condemn this immediately and ensure those responsible are held to account.

One Nation Volunteer bashed with baseball bat by Leftist Migrants.
This is what Leftist, non-citizen Migrants did to a husband & father of two young children outside his home.
The One Nation volunteer was attacked with a baseball bat outside his home in Torquay, Victoria, after confronting two people who were damaging One Nation signs on his property.
The Left have declared War on everyday Aussies due to LABOR calling everyone Far Right & Nazi’s.
LABOR has normalised violence & regardless of what we do this election is going to get ugly because the Left are mentally deranged & Labor allows them to literally get away with murder.
Stay safe out there, be prepared to defend & protect yourself & if you are volunteering for a Right Wing party go out in a group.
We shouldn’t have to live like this.
On Sunday 1 November, a husband and father to two young children was allegedly attacked with a baseball bat outside his home in Torquay, Victoria, after confronting two people who were damaging One Nation signs on his property.
He is now in hospital with multiple facial fractures and bleeding on the brain. He faces a long recovery.
He runs his own business and is the family's only income earner. While he is recovering, the family has no money coming in. His work vehicle was also badly damaged in the alleged attack.
His family should be able to focus on his recovery without the added worry of lost income, medical costs and everyday bills.
We are keeping his name private to protect him and his family.
All funds raised will go directly to the family to help cover these expenses and support his recovery.
Any contribution, large or small, will help. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this page.
Thank you for standing with this father and his family.

BREAKING: An Afghan refugee who robbed an 80 year old grandmother and was caught with a large commercial supply of drugs in his boot has been allowed to stay in Australia by Tony Burke.
You cannot make this up.
A convicted Afghan drug courier who shamelessly scammed an 80 year old grandmother out of $2,000 has just had his visa cancellation overturned.
Instead of being booted out of Australia, he's allowed to stay.
Why? Because of the Albanese government’s disastrous “Direction 110”
rules.
Look at what Immigration Minister Tony Burke’s broken system is forcing Australians to live next door to:
DRUG KINGPIN QUANTITIES: Caught with over 3kg of MDMA, 2kg of meth, and nearly 1kg of cocaine stuffed in his boot.
ELDERLY ABUSE: Convicted of fraud for preying on and robbing an innocent 80 year old woman.
ACTIVE OFFENDER: He was literally hauled into court twice just weeks ago facing brand new drug charges during his appeal.
ZERO REMORSE: Dropped out of his required rehab and told the court he doesn't need any more drug rehabilitation.
The tribunal admitted he is a “moderate risk” to reoffend, but ruled his “ties to Australia” and “fear of the Taliban” trump the safety of Australian citizens.
Tony Burke claims “community safety comes first” but this is a total betrayal.
Labor’s character framework has turned our immigration system into an absolute joke, and everyday Australians are paying the price for their utter weakness.
How much longer can this government put foreign criminals ahead of Aussie families?

In 2018, Albanese said a parliamentary committee finding that Peter Dutton misled Parliament meant he “should resign” under Westminster principles.
In 2026, Albanese told Parliament a $6m grant to his local Marrickville Golf Club (where he’s an honorary member) was for sewerage works. Officials later confirmed sewerage was “not in the scope of the grant.” He admitted the claim was “not correct.”
Still Prime Minister. No resignation. Just a different standard when the boot is on the other foot. Tick tock Albo.

So, basically, 500 million Europeans expect 300 million Americans to protect them from 120 million Russians who can’t even defeat 40 million Ukrainians while those 500 million Europeans don’t even realize they are being conquered by 2 billion Muslims who claim they are being persecuted by 8 million Israelis. Is that about right?

We need their paychecks to reflect the amount of time they are at work, like the rest of us.
We've created an elite political class, high above the average Australian.
Once these people reach that peak, they never have to ever care again about Australia. They have it all made.
They could utterly destroy and decimate our country and be fully rewarded for it for the rest of their lives.
And having this system in place gives these kinds of people the ultimate incentive to run for public office in the first place.
If the pay and rewards were modest, reflecting what normal Australians receive, then disgusting communists and people who only care about enriching themselves would have far less interest in becoming politicians.
We do this to ourselves.
We have to change politicians wages to reflect our wages.
This is what I'm going to submit to One Nation's survey program.

The Australian'a have caught on. She won't survive this. The internet is forever. Sydney University will regret this.
Bob de la Motte retweeted
She belongs in jail.
It makes you want to vomit.
Jacinda Ardern has been gifted a privileged position at Sydney University as a “professor of practice”.
The University released a statement:
“Her work will focus on empathetic leadership, social cohesion and civic trust; further developing new approaches to global and values-based leadership, as well as exploring new ways to address global health challenges centred on equity, inclusion and wellbeing.”
This has to be some type of sick joke.
“Empathetic leadership – equity and inclusion” – this from a woman that smirked about dividing society into two classes of people.
“Civic trust” – from a woman who destroyed civic trust and will be remembered by history as saying “we will be your single source of truth” – and then proceeded to tell lie after lie about the so-called vaccine.
The only university Ardern is fit to lecture at is one in North Korea or Cuba.
But her appointment only confirms what we already know – our universities are no longer places of education and learning – they are Marxist indoctrination camps, so Ardern will fit in well.
Just another reason to vote One Nation.

This is @AlboMP in 2020 commenting on then Coalition Minister Bridget McKenzie who admitted to breaching ministerial standards by failing to formally declare her membership at the Wangaratta Trap and Gun Club, which received $36,000 in federal funding through a Sports Funding program. She resigned.
Thanks to @rovingallround for the clip.
