Hah. :lol:

I thought this to be a tad humorous.
Senator Pauline Hanson has fallen victim to an online prank after a tech savvy critic noticed that a website domain in her name had expired.

Internet users hoping to find out more about the outspoken One Nation leader by visiting www.paulinehanson.com.au are now redirected to the Refugee Council of Australia’s (RCOA) website.

Went for a walk to the town beach and swam back. I had to laugh at what people consider camping these days. Some people are still in tents but the number of ginormous caravans outfitted with Solar Panels, generators, TV arials and satellite dishes is unreal

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry:

Biden’s sign language interpreter was a Trump supporter signing Trump misinformation

The Texas public safety department say that they "apologize for the confusion this may have caused and are diligently working to ensure this does not happen again.” :lol:

It's just standard guilt-by-association stuff; not really worth giving it the time of day. Competent live sign-language interpreters aren't exactly a dime a dozen and it makes sense that they would ply their trade for a range of people (and obviously one expect that their political beliefs would not interfere with the performance of their jobs ... that is, if they want to keep their jobs). I agree with Tannin that this is an appalling beat-up. The Washington Post should hang their heads in shame, and give this constant reds-under-the-bed routine a rest while they're at it.

^ Just on that final point, when was the last time there was an actual red under a bed in the US? The 1950s, maybe? I mean, apart from the two guys driving their Antifa Kombi all over the US to orchestrate BLM and to run their "false flag" up at Capitol Hill on 6 January?
