I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one. I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one. I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them. I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

If you told him you were a skeptic, he'd answer "I doubt that!". A great and brave champion of reason.

For my 50th birthday I'm asking for donations to Gondwana Choirs. Choral music has been a huge part of my life, and the fantastic work Gondwana is doing, especially with the young Indigenous choirs across Australia is truly worthy of all our support. facebook.com/donate/33573315…
