'Trump says I'm being persecuted! And the lawyers reply no, you're being prosecuted...'

Is the former president cutting an increasingly isolated figure in the Manhattan courtroom? Or is it just photo op after photo op for his campaign? 🇺🇸

A film that always hits a nerve and makes me shed a tear.

Coming Home (1978).

Especially this scene where a now wheelchair bound Vietnam vet addresses an auditorium of young men.

For anyone pondering Anzac Day & the cost of war beyond its financials, it’s well worth the watch.

Sam Maiden very strong on #Insiders particularly in how a “rapist weaponised” material that became available through a criminal trial process, “and sold it to the highest bidder.” Surely there is more there to come. #insiders

Much to consider on this week’s Fourth Estate following the “omnishambles” (to quote Justice Lee) that was the Bruce Lehrmann v Network 10 & Lisa Wilkinson defamation case.

'Mr Lehrmann behaved disgracefully. He defended the criminal charge on a false basis, lied to

Oh for a window into afternoon conference at The Aus.

Indeed.
