The Eric Abetz interview is live! 50 years in politics and still going strong. A fascinating interview covering log cabin story, the 28 Senate years, and contemporary issues as the #politas Treasurer. Get it at our YouTube channel or on the pods.

I mean, just an all-time TV segment. Making Chuck do Who He Play For multiple times in a row with the same players is a brilliant idea and I was legit crying laughing by the end, my god.

As usual ridiculous cherrypicking of the Brendan Nugent account. Some right accounts treating him as simply a leftie based on older tweets ignoring obvious recent shift in behaviour. Some left accounts treating ***very obviously*** sarcastic tweets re Hanson etc as sincere.
Thanks to @brentcostelloe bumping into a couple of tourists at the airport and @Shane_Broad’s social media prowess, a quiet #politas day quickly turned into a busy one. @WINNews_Tas at 5.30pm 📺

Shane Broad has helpfully declared that Tasmanian Labor should wave a magic wand and nearly double its polled primary vote overnight so it can win a majority!

It is very difficult to imagine Sean taking this tone and approach with Zacharia unless he knew it’s what President Trump and others would be ok with or wanted.
😮 Katie Zacharia crashes and burns on [checks notes] Hannity 😮
If you had the "over" on Zacharia lasting more than one Scaramucci, her epic flame out on Hannity just now won't help your cause
HANNITY: You said you consulted with people who advised you it was okay to call yourself a lawyer but not an attorney, correct?
ZACHARIA: Correct
HANNITY: There's a report out tonight showing 15 social media posts where you identify yourself as an attorney
ZACHARIA: I think they were retweets
Here's the whole interview:

Hi, sorry to call at such short notice but our sketch artist has fallen ill, was wondering if you could step in, it says on your profile that you do sketch work...
Well I normally only draw Giraffes but I guess how hard can it be, sure I'll do it.

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix is developing a movie adaptation of "Hatchet," Gary Paulsen’s 1987 young adult survival novel.
• The film will be written and directed by Derek Cianfrance, best known for films such as “Blue Valentine” and “The Place Beyond the Pines.”
• Per the synopsis: “Hatchet” follows “13-year-old Brian Robeson, who is stranded alone in the Canadian wilderness after a plane crash with nothing but the hatchet his mother gave him.”
• Paulsen later expanded the story into a five-book series that included “The River” (1991), “Brian’s Winter” (1996), “Brian’s Return” (1999) and “Brian’s Hunt” (2003).
