Last Tuesday’s American White House media event between Trump our PM ‘Albo’ and our US Ambassador Kevin Rudd of course had nothing to do with the so-called scripted ‘critical minerals deal’, which was nothing more than a ‘red herring’.
Trump loves money, and Australia’s ambassador Kevin Rudd sold Australia out yet again to keep his job as did his boss Anthony Albanese.
The Murdoch media are raving about the deal, and the compromised ABC are going along with it.
For $375 billion of Australian taxpayers’ money we might get one ageing Virginia-class nuclear sub some time in the future.
But who is going to crew it? And what is the sub’s real purpose? To attack China?
