USA could. ... shouldhave stayed and developed Afghanistan's wealth? Paul Keating.......put thousands of workers out of a job.

'I am staggered': Former PM Turnbull says Porter should have refused anonymous payment of legal feesChristian Porter should not have accepted money from an anonymous benefactor to pay his defamation legal fees, says former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull. So a man who allegedly raped a woman, and has allegedly had countless other infractions of behaviour has allegedly rorted his position for financial gain. I must say I am shocked! Of course Porter knows the identity of the donor(s) but this way he can say he doesn't. Donor/s depositing cash into a Porter blind trust, isnt the problem, it's the 'who' has paid those monies; wealthy friend, a church, criminal syndicate or offshore regime ?, could be from anywhere. Imagine if revealed Gerry Harvey stumped up the money, since it's ours 🤔
