For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do. If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections. www.axios.com/2025/12/01/j...

Karoline Leavitt and Hegseth are throwing Admiral Bradley under the bus for the controversial Caribbean airstrikes. This admin is a chaotic mess, but thankfully the time to hold them accountable is fast approaching. Let’s make sure they face the music in '26.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

Once they establish their White Paradise, I wonder who will do the work.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Your Orange Daddy isn't going to save you Petey. You don't have Immunity.

Mayor Bass handled this brilliantly today!

This is the grossest excusing of genocide you will read in a long while.

How utterly ridiculous … www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

See two previous posts - we are enabling a genocidal regime and clamping down on debate… www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Are you paying any attention to what sociopath Trump is trying to do to rest of world, @albomp.bsky.social? USA are not our ally, or our friend. Under Trump, they are authoritarian conquerors who want to impose their far-right fascist views on the rest of us. www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/28/d...

@timdunlop.bsky.social latest piece definitely worth reading as we creep closer to Federal election. Are we going to get serious policy announcements or more cute phrases? We know Dutton is policy-free zone, so we need Labor & crossbench to step into that space. open.substack.com/pub/tdunlop/...

Are we not going to talk about the fact that Dutton simply lies, even about stuff easily verified (citizenship & voting)? He will not honour the commitment to #Medicare, just as Abbott reneged on all of his election claims. It is in their DNA to lie. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

We have all seen, since the Hamas incursion, that Zionists in Australia place their loyalty to Israel and not here. They have influenced our government, compromising social cohesion thru their constant lies & false flag attacks. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Elon Musk is paid TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to be the CEO of Tesla. What did Elon get done last week for Tesla?

Remove the "exceptional circumstances" clause in #NACC legislation @helenhainesindi.bsky.social with some cogent thoughts on lack of trust the public has in the anti-corruption commission. I would have added that it is essential for Brereton to resign. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/share/20224/...

Enrique Tarrio, the former Proud Boys leader granted clemency by Donald Trump last month, was arrested outside the US Capitol on Friday and charged with assaulting a female protester. www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Is there no corner of Australian life not being perverted by the influence of Zionists & their acolytes? They represent <0.46% of the population yet dictate to the remaining 99.54% of us. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/culture...

@albomp.bsky.social needs to wake up to the reality of the new Trump-USA. They are not allies in any historical sense of the word: we cannot depend on Trump in any crisis. We MUST get out of #AUKUS now & focus on Australia's needs, not Trump's. www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

#TemuTrump is a real #NowhereMan living in his #NowhereLand Dutton runs & hides every time someone wants to ask him an actual question. www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/20/p...

Trump is a clucking moron, spending most of his time on his knees servicing Putin. How the cluck has it come to this where the president of the USA openly lies in the service of Russia, a country that is a threat to the entire world? www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

We need to change completely current political scene. Australia cannot afford to continue to be tied to a failed fascist state like USA. And if Albo and Dutton cannot recognise this, then they need to be dumped. The USA under Trump is not our ally. www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/19/a...

This is incredibly disturbing. I mean, we all sort of knew how broken the Republican Party is and how corrupt Trump/Musk are, but to see it all laid bare like this is in your face raw. The USA is a failed state under the GOP. open.substack.com/pub/thinkbig...

Never forget, Dutton is against community solutions like this. Against community batteries. His owner-operator, Rinehart, has told the #MalignantTuber what to say and that is what he says. Fvck the science. Dutton works for oligarchs. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

It will be dark days indeed if the racist thug Dutton gets into the Lodge. He is building his election campaign on the same divisive hatred of Trump. Anyone who is not white must be kept down. Must be made to know who is in charge. And it is not them. independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

Everyone needs to choose their preferences carefully. Put #LNP last. You choose your preference flow & do not need to follow how to vote cards. Keep Dutton from bringing even more Trump BS to the country. michaelwest.com.au/caution-urge...

Compassion & humanity shine thru for refugees. BUT Almost one third were OK sending refugees back to country of origin NO MATTER what the risk. Fuck the far right in this country. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Thoughtful piece from @timdunlop.bsky.social on the changes in the electoral landscape and the decline of Labor plus the rise of coalition vs non-coalition seats. The duopoly is dying but it may not happen completely this next election. #Auspol2025 open.substack.com/pub/tdunlop/...

This is demented.

“It’s my view John Howard did more than anyone to make housing unaffordable,” he said. The ABC’s financial expert Alan Kohler took a deep dive and in his opinion, former Prime Minister John Howard is the main culprit. www.news.com.au/finance/work... #auspol

You know Kate Winslet in Contagion? Where she runs into a hot zone, risking her life, so Americans could be safer? She was an EIS officer. That’s who was just fired at CDC today. EIS officers. And many, many more public servants fighting every day for your health.

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

BREAKING Federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson just issued an order preventing the Trump administration from: 1. Deleting CFPB data 2. Firing CFPB employees 3. Transferring money from CFPB's reserve fund Right after the order was issued, nearly all CFPB employees were placed on administrative leave

10 people died after welfare payments wrongly cut off due to IT bugs in employment services system, discovered then ignored for 3 years. Ombo investigating. Govt won't turn off 'penalty zone' because private job agencies would lose profit briefings reveal. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic...

Here's one of the key sections of that brief from the department. I think it's one you need to see for yourself.

Like, it's right there in the Department of Employment brief to their minister. We COULD remove the penalty zone from the compliance framework but forcing people into mutual obligations is what keeps the providers financially viable so that would be a problem...

Private job agencies are (and have already been) soul sucking parasites who need to be banned and publicly shamed.

Were any lessons learned from the criminal #RoboDebt scheme? These problems below started with Morrison et al. of course but have not been significantly fixed by Labor. Please intervene @MurrayWatt - do not let this deteriorate any further. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic...

Fuck Labor for this one Lying bastards

Deception at the heart of Australia’s anti-corruption commission. When the officers of the #NACC are almost certainly either incompetent and/or corrupt, no wonder there is now zero faith in political corruption ever being dealt with. johnmenadue.com/before-durin...

This is why you should be reading @amyremeikis.bsky.social's live blog. She does not forget anything and she picks up on everything live.australiainstitute.org.au

The attack on DEI - Diversity, equity, and inclusion - by the orange moron, Trump. No surprises that mini-Trump, the über-potato Dutton, is parroting the same racist, bigoted BS. Dutton is the very definition of a non-merit based appointment. open.substack.com/pub/steady/p...

These bigots just can't help themselves. Any vulnerable group (is any group more vulnerable than trans kids) is fair game to their culture wars, their campaigning on hate. Hanson has grifted from taxpayers 4 decades without achieving a single +ve thing. www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...

Why does it feel like we are all just screaming into an empty void? DUMP #AUKUS NOW It's not a treaty, it is simply an excuse to give USA $358bill so MPs feel good about wedging each other over #NatSec www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

One more striking example of why >500,000 signed a petition for an urgent inquiry into media ownership & operation in this country. A foreign country with whom we have minimal trade ties and no formal allianceis interfering in our democracy via the MSM. www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/10/a...

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.
