A former prime minister best remembered for being removed by his own party, returning three years later to remove the woman who removed him, and then losing the subsequent election has this week generously shared his thoughts on another leader’s fitness for the top job.

YES #KevinRudd you goose, Australia might very well NEED nuclear sub "protection" from the US, but NO, Australia doesn't need to buy the bloody things and descend into the abyss of bankruptcy paying $370 billion for them.

The US can retain "ownership" of them as part of #AUKUS.

The 'Bringing Them Home' report on the #racist seizure of #AboriginalAustralian children was released in 1997, but Liberal #JohnHoward refused apology. In 2008 on #ThisDayInHistory, under Labor's #KevinRudd, an apology for the barbaric #WhiteSupremacist practice was finally made.

#KevinRudd is a shady individual but I got to say no matter what this eludes to, I don't think being involved in #Epstein 's "vile criminality" in any guise was ever "Rudd's idea of shadiness".

There's certainly no suggestion of Rudd ever going within cooee of #EpsteinIsland.

It's easy to believe #KevinRudd when says he never met #JeffreyEpstein or went to his Island, because I can't imagine anyone less suited to that world, other than perhaps former Reserve Bank Governor, Bernie Fraser. #EpsteinFiles #auspol

Have known #KevinRudd long time & have worked out his life goal is to lead #UnitedNations. His preparation for job has been awesome & I reckon he will make it this time. Question is whether UN can cope with him.

Just when @albomp.bsky.social had the chance to replace #KevinRudd with someone who would nurture the "economic relationship" between Australia and the US but at the same time be "objectively critical" about the "incredibly silly" #AUKUS "submarine deal" he goes & gets #GregMoriarty.

Have known #KevinRudd for several decades and have never known him not to give 1000% effort into every project he works on but too often he did not bring his team along with him & this limited his achievements. But he is still a 1000% better leader than #Trump.

No doubt #Trump may very well have "pushed" #Albanese and other government figures, like #PennyWong, #RichardMarles and #JimChalmers, to show #KevinRudd the door early.

It will take a "mighty tenacious" individual to put their hand up to replace Rudd in a Trump governed USA.

This isn't #journalism. It's tabloid trash.
