Felt sick hearing this & it was only from you I knew about it. Then they say they have to cut funding to NDIS & today I learn CSIRO cuts & more money for f*****king submarines. Make . It. Stop.

11 Australians kidnapped by genocidal Israel Because they tried to bring aid to #Gaza. Visit, call or email your local MP - Urge the federal gov to stand up for Australian citizens and end our support for Israel's occupation and blockade of Gaza. @australianlabor.bsky.social #Auspol #Genocide

@ronnisalt.bsky.social never misses.....

The most unhinged part of the budget www.instagram.com/reel/DYg_bpp...

A very Ronni piece 👏🫡👏 '...Pauline Hanson is an inveterate liar and a perennial victim who perpetually dodges accountability aided by a circle-jerk media more intent on clicks than democracy.' She's our Tommy Robinson & was doing it way before him. A proud time for us, the duopoly & the system 👍

I have a daughter with Down Syndrome. We are not having to change our finances one bit to deal with any changes to trusts. (Mostly because like 99% of people we don't have a testamentary trust)

This headline is a disgusting lie Special Disability Trusts are not affected *AT ALL* The article even makes it clear the concerns of the bloke (a solicitor with expertise in wills and estates) in this story are not about his disabled son but his other children being able to minimize their tax!

“Honesty is not a well Pauline Hanson drinks from. Never has Australian politics seen such an endless, shameless bullshitter.” #auspol

“So much of the rise of One Nation is about a political duopoly and a system infested with politicians busily chewing off their own feet.”

Here's @ronnisalt.bsky.social. "Where One Nation lies".

From the river to the sea.

New media covering the Nakba Day rally on Sunday in Naarm/Melbourne. #auspol #springst #FreePalestine Waves at @davemilbo.bsky.social

Excellent ep on the good (some), the bad, the ugly, and the utterly despicable in the budget. Great points made by all including interviewee El Gibbs. Points, issues, and conversations you'd never hear in the other place. The Sunday Shot has a big beating heart. Thank you, all 🙏

Melbourne/Naarm yet again showed up in numbers for Palestine this Nakba Day, in defiance of so much grotesque complicity from our government. From the river to the sea.

H/T to @davemilbo.bsky.social “Social murder” was the term Engels used when a society knowingly creates conditions that shorten the lives of the poor and vulnerable while pretending the deaths are unfortunate inevitabilities instead of policy outcomes. #Disability #NDIS

Excellent chat this morning on #SundayShot on NDIS, salient point by Kalila Welch that if there was widespread fraud in Medicare then Labor wouldn’t cut those seeking healthcare, they go after the unscrupulous operators. @grogsgamut.bsky.social @instanterudite.bsky.social @davemilbo.bsky.social

Oh and with respect to @instanterudite.bsky.social's closing comment on Jayson Gillham vs Melbourne Symphony Orchestra 👇

Excellent show. Imagine in a housing crisis the ‘public housing’ #budget is to house US troops stationed here!! Thank you @davemilbo.bsky.social for your outrage. #auspol

Brilliant Sunday Shot this morning, thanks to @davemilbo.bsky.social and team for such an informative programme

Listening to another fantastic edition of Sunday Shot #Binsiders & thinking again about this 🧵on the need to end extreme wealth & extreme inequality

Sunday Shot this morning is me, @instanterudite.bsky.social, @grogsgamut.bsky.social, and Cheek Media's Kalila Welch as we break down the budget. Join us! www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1iG...

Surya just sent me these beautiful pictures from the Sumud Flotilla. After some final deliberations in Turkiye, they're now heading onwards to Gaza, taking aid and the world's conscience with them. May it be smooth sailing.

Royal Commissions in a parliamentary democracy are meant to protect democracy from domestic or foreign abuse and corruption and so on, ensure equal opportunity and representation of the public, not be controlled and dominated by a foreign apartheid power for instance

hahahaha, no, you won't

Listening to most of the public submissions to the hasbara-inspired Royal Commission would drive any decent person to distraction, but thank fuck we have the Jewish Council of Australia and independent journalists telling the truth: #auspol #FreePalestine #AntiZionismIsAMitzvah #FuckIsrael

“A cohort of entitled extremists who refuse to take responsibility for a genocidal position while presenting as a group of marginalised victims is hard to stomach.”

We snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by letting the Whitlam coup go without notice, and allowed Murdoch, Buttrose and other Zionists to mess with our media. We could be wealthy and sustainable, but the rent seeking crooks are firmly in charge of the old institutions. Time for new ones.

The claim that this natural revulsion is actually some mysterious, pathological hatred of Jews that has suddenly bubbled up from nowhere is not just insulting – it is deranged. And it is highly political. #auspol

When you listen through an Indigenous lense, it's fucking horrifying .

Great article, hits the nail on the head. And they wonder why people are angry.

Not one falsehood in this piece 👇👇👇👇

Hell yes 🎯💯🎯💯🎯

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social. "The royal commission into the hurt feelings of genocidal psychopaths"

This was a really heartening chat in dark times. Check it out.

I interviewed Surya McEwen, an Aussie hero aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, after he was assaulted by the Israeli Navy youtu.be/m5bRsxNSvfM?...

Tim Wilson is weird.

The courage and conviction of these folk in the face of such deplorable fuckery is outstanding.

#RealHeroes Vs #Genocide by #Israel.

I interviewed Surya McEwen, an Aussie hero aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, after he was assaulted by the Israeli Navy youtu.be/m5bRsxNSvfM?...

Wonderful interview Dave and very informative. Surya is the best of us. Wishing him and all on the flotilla safe travels

The #SundayShot is up! @rachelwithers.bsky.social and I discuss the results of last night's #Farrer by-election, plus @nickfeik.bsky.social on the failing NACC and @davemilbo.bsky.social interviews Surya McEwen from aboard the #Sumud Global Flotilla. youtu.be/5lOmyVETzLE?...

All strength to Surya McEwen and the Sumud Flotilla! ✊🏼🍉✊🏼🇵🇸

I just chatted with Surya McEwen, an Australian activist aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, presently on his way to Gaza after some brutal treatment by the Israeli Navy in Greek waters. He's an inspiring man. Look for that interview on The Sunday Shot.

"Since the Reagan era... a ...study estimated that “nearly $80 trillion in wealth has been redistributed from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%”. This was not an accident" Powerful read from @lucyham.bsky.social about the grip ‘Moneyland' has on both the global north and south

Have we worked out yet why @albomp.bsky.social is bribing a pedophile?

Also, it’s our money. I’ve worked with people that say things like “conservative gov make money, liberal gov spend money” dude, where did he thinks the money comes from? We want them to spend our money on us. That’s the whole point of tax.

They are my thoughts exactly. Imagine if our forefathers who built the Overland Telegraph and Snowy Mountains had had the same timid aspirations. It makes my blood boil.

Feeling the trickle yet?

Neither Israel nor USA, our Australian dictatorship, will permit any tax expenditure that fails to directly benefit their evil empire building.
