Outsiders host James Morrow says “between Iowa, impeachment, and acting like a bunch of spoiled toddlers at the State of the Union, the Democrats just don't seem very good at this politics stuff”.
Outsiders host James Morrow says “between Iowa, impeachment, and acting like a bunch of spoiled toddlers at the State of the Union, the Democrats just don't seem very good at this politics stuff”. Mr Morrow said “the Democrats got together for another one of their debates on Saturday, and it didn't look good for them”.
“Like an episode of Seinfeld, it was a show about nothing,” he said. “It's still ten months to the election, surely there's a chance that the Dems could get their collective acts together and beat Trump fair and square at the ballot box, right? “Well, yes, and the old advice "don't get cocky" will never get old.” Image: Getty

Australia's response to coronavirus described as 'racist and sinophobic' | Sky News AustraliaOutsiders host Rita Panahi says the “prudent measures” Australia is taking to stop the spread of the coronavirus are being described as “racist and sinophobic”.\n\nMs Panahi said “a number of countries including Singapore, Iraq and Indonesia have taken similar measures to Australia and the US in banning all foreign travellers who have recently been to China”.\n\n“It's curious that the usual race-obsessed simpletons save their biggest criticism of the coronavirus response for countries like Australia and the US instead of China whose own citizens are risking harsh sanctions by speaking out about the outbreak,” she said.\n\n“Are the Iraqis being racist and fanning 'white supremacy' by closing their border to non-citizens who have recently been in China?\n\n“It would be profoundly stupid to uncritically accept what the totalitarian government of China tell us about the outbreak, or anything else for that matter.”\n\nImage: Getty

Also known as socialism,” he said.\n\n“History has also taught us that liberty and freedom and true democracy require above all healthy, inquiring, skeptical minds that aren't afraid to challenge the all-pervading and stifling orthodoxies of the day.\n\n“We're only in the first week of February and it's bucketing down… So, here's a thought: if Scott Morrison was responsible for the bushfires, is he also responsible for this biblical downpour?”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia
