SRS, I looked again at Eugene Robinson's surroundings but it was a fuzzy room background, so that makes sense. I was at an interesting antiques place and at first glance I thought there was a quilt with coloured squares hanging up but on closer inspection I realised it was a Middle Eastern rug.

Yes, back to the topic.

There was an odd news article yesterday:

Home Affairs Minister Clare O'Neil calls Donald Trump Jr a 'big baby' over cancelled Australian speaking tour

"The younger Trump, who had been booked on a three-day tour that was scheduled to begin in Sydney on Sunday, cancelled the trip on Wednesday, with organisers suggesting the reason was visa issues.

" 'It seems America isn't the only country that makes it difficult for the Trumps,' said Turning Point Australia, a group that describes itself as a non-profit in favour of free markets and limited government, in a Facebook post."

I have never heard of Turning Point Australia, but if they think a Trump-related speaking tour is a good idea, I'm not interested.
