Apparently the Joe Exotic from Tiger King (does anyone remember that time during the pandemic lock downs when that insane show had a chokehold on the world?) who is in jail for murder and animal abuse has endorsed Anthony Albanese on Instagram. (I am not checking this. My social algo is cooked enough as it is with all the politics)

A journalist seems to very seriously be asking whether anyone from Labor may have paid Joe Exotic, convicted murderer and animal abuser, for a social media endorsement.

Albanese:

He’s in jail. Isn’t that the question? I wasn’t even aware of it – I think the point of that question was to ask the question rather than to get a serious answer, I hope.

Albanese says that isn’t a criticism and he thinks it is good to have “a bit of levity” in which case, his idea of humour and mine are very different.
