You do not need to be a "good" writer to be successful. If Rowling was the genius writer you're claiming people would be clamouring for her detective novels, but she's not. She's a mediocre hack who got lucky.

Defence Minister Richard Marles is dedicated to ensuring Australia remains a loyal vassal of the United States — at enormous cost to taxpayers, writes Bernard Keane. www.crikey.com.au/2026/04/17/r...

We need an unequivocal statement from Labor that Australia will not be dragged into an illegal war led by Netanyahu and Trump. Obfuscation, weakness, sycophancy, fear and appeasement of Trump weakens our economy sovereignty and standing on the world stage. Courage not cowardice!

The Federal Court has today ruled that Australian citizen Dan Duggan will be extradited to the United States, where he faces up to 65 years in prison for conduct that wasn’t even an offence under Australian law. It's deeply distressing news for so many.

Once upon a time Australia used to laugh at America for spending ludicrous amounts of money on weapons of mass destruction as their own citizens couldn't afford Food, Shelter healthcare or quality education. How time changes... We don't have to continue this path AUKUS must be abolished immediately

Just yesterday Labor bet everything in defence on binding us to the US. Trump didn’t even notice, let alone care, and has come out and attacked Australia anyhow. This is not a relationship of friends or allies, we are being held hostage and need to escape.

Who owns you? www.threads.com/@georgie_bar...

If you think it’s embarrassing to be from the USA, at least you aren’t Australian. Imagine watching the current USA leadership and yet you’re still tripping over yourself to be its vassal state. Pathetic.

How long before we admit that the US is now an enemy of Australia, and of our region? It is actively interdicting vital resource deliveries, to us and our close neighbours. Many might interpret that as an act of war.

You know what... only the dumbest of dumbfucks thinks dealing with the Epstein Regime is a matter of diplomacy and we clearly have far too many dumbfucks because here we are... These greedy parasites need to be arrested for war crimes. Their supporters shunned their ideologies relegated to history

Australia we can be better than a weapons manufacturing plant beholden to nefarious regimes who on a whim decide whether or not we should feel threatened this week or next. We need to abolish AUKUS untangle ourselves from to the Epstein Regime reject the insanity from Israel. Punch up not down

Critical legal step taken today to help end Australia’s export of weapons and weapon parts to Israel. Three Palestinian human rights groups, represented by @theacij.bsky.social have filed legal action to force transparency over Australia’s arms exports to Israel acij.org.au/joint-media-...

@albomp.bsky.social It's past time to be diplomatic when dealing with the Epstein Regime it's time to tell them to take a long fucking walk to fuck off mountain anything less is pure bullshit

Anybody else really pissed off that Australia is wasting time money and resources to facilitate indiscriminate killing of people to make a few billionaires richer whilst people are unable to put food on the table? Who's fucking idea was this? Do we grow up at any point? No more wars!!

A reminder that the adoption of the IHRA definition - as pushed by Australian Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal - is part of a coordinated global effort to suppress any criticism of Israel's genocidal policies. And the Australian government has caved in. #auspol

How is bombing for peace going?

This fool Barnaby Joyce could not be more wrong. In the midst of a diesel scarcity crisis, bringing regional Australia into a shutdown - he wants to pour scorn on renewables and double down on the fossil fuel grift. EV trucks exist Joyce! #insiders www.volvotrucks.com.au/en-au/trucks...

Watching #insiders and see how inept and uninformed the panel is on what’s actually happening in the world - then to Barnaby - what a joke Australian MSM has become #auspol

This appalling war that Labor supports is unravelling into chaos as Trump now calls for a Coalition of the Unwilling to send warships. Australia must refuse and instead join with other nations, not to fight this illegal war, but to help end it.

For the sake of taxpayers, let's hope that the Audit Office is inspecting the AUKUS books closely. Australian money is flushing into the US submarine construction system – a billion US dollars so far, with another billion by year's end. What will Australia have to show for it? #auspol #AUKUS

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

The $300 energy rebate won't be extended for struggling citizens in 2026 but The commonwealth government and the NSW government will underwrite costs from Snowy-Hydro to guarantee affordable power for the Tomago aluminium smelter owned by Rio Tinto it's unclear how much this will cost... 🤦‍♀️

Australia Institute research shows 80% of Australia’s gas is exported by multinational gas corporations, who then tell us we have a gas shortage. Big Gas is Taking the Piss. Add your name to the call to fix Australia's gas export problem: https://nb.australiainstitute.org.au/fix_gas_export_problem

Even more US military assets coming to Australia. More US bases. More US weapons. Celebrating a dominant foreign government sending its military into our harbours and cities and taking multiple footholds here … it’s cringeworthy, tragic and wrong.

Fresh insight into why Labor is refusing to release the AUKUS review. US Undersecretary of Defence Elbridge Colby is backgrounding journalists on the upcoming US National Defence Review, calling Israel an “partner” and Australia “dependent.” That’s how they think. thenightly.com.au/politics/aus...

Why do Australian taxpayers have to cover Rio Tinto's energy costs? It's the world's second largest mining company! FFS! Sick of this crap. #auspol

'So far, Australia has forcibly sent four men to Nauru from [the "NZYQ" cohort], in exchange for more than $400m upfront and up to $70m a year. The scheme is expected to cost Australia $2.5bn over 30 years.' Fighting Tories doesn't come cheap.

Gina Rinehart, Australia’s richest person, spotted at Donald Trump’s 1920s, Great Gatsby-themed Halloween party at Mar-a-Lago. One Nation leader Pauline Hanson was also reportedly there, but her office declined to confirm whether Hanson attended.

Why isn't non-Murdoch media asking Lachlan Murdoch every day why his Fox Network is Trump's chief propaganda unit? Why does he get to hide out in Australia while running cheerleading for the ruin of America's justice, health & rights systems?

We don’t have a gas shortage, we have a gas export problem. Santos are gaming the system and pushing up the price of gas paid by 🇦🇺 households & industry. We don’t need new projects, we need to reserve uncontracted export gas for 🇦🇺 now! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

SA is showing leadership and common sense by banning AI in election ads. The Federal govt should follow their lead and protect our democracy from the misuse of generative AI. www.innovationaus.com/sa-cracks-do...

Fun fact: Santos has paid $0 in corporate tax in the last 10y while selling $48bn of Australian gas. Santos buys gas domestically and sells it overseas, increasing the price of Australian gas in our own market. Our govt must reserve gas for our domestic industries and homes.

We don’t share values with that country anymore. Call out any Australian politician you hear/see saying that we do. It’s a fantasy to hold onto the idea that we do and should remain close to the United States.
