A top Democrat is calling for a watchdog investigation after photographs emerged suggesting that the DOJ has been tracking the search history of lawmakers who are reviewing the Epstein files.

Tragic to think Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward would have been sacked by Jeff Bezos today for trying to shine some light on Nixon and the Watergate scandal. #ValeTheWashingtonPost

In early 2026, Sidoti called for the arrest of Israeli President Isaac Herzog in Australia over alleged incitement to genocide, citing UN commission findings on statements after the October 2023 Hamas attacks. He emphasized head-of-state immunity does not apply to such atrocity crimes. #auspol

A lot going on here and all ugly, but one thing I still can't get my head around is how any British government can do business with Thiel at this point.

Rainforests cover just 6% of Earth's land but house over half of the world's plant and animal species. Yet, deforestation destroys an area the size of a football field every few seconds, driven by logging, agriculture, and mining. This loss accelerates climate change and biodiversity decline.

Rs are trying to push thru the “SAVE Act” creating a bureaucratic nightmare for new voters (eg college students), married women, & voters trying to re-register (after being wrongly purged by the GOP) or trying to fix their registration if GOP operatives switch it w/o their consent (as has happened).

WaterNSW, the department responsible for policing water in NSW, has had its budget cut. Three hundred staff will get the sack. You know they won't cut upper management, they will cut licensing inspectors and compliance officers. Will we see more water theft? I hope not, but who knows. 😡

A new mine has been approved between Nyngan and Cobar. Now I know we need copper to combat Climate Change. But. There is no permanent water in Nyngan or Cobar. The water must come via the Albert Priest Channel from the Wambuul with 40% losses. We need a pipeline now and the mines should pay for it.

BREAKING NEWS HISTORIC HARSHEST HEAT WAVE IN SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE HISTORY worsens: Temperatures close to 50C in 3 Australian States Victoria had its hottest day ever with 48.9C Dozens of records shattered. And it will get worse Updates later

Tell us again #ScoMo how EVs will wreck your long weekend #Coal, this little black rock can do amazing things #auspol

In a significant shift from the fossil fuel-heavy response of past heatwaves, solar power met 60% of peak power demand and stabilised the grid amidst record cooling, with rooftop panels contributing two-thirds of that total.

Once expected just 4 times a century, heat at this level is now likely every 5 years and will happen every 2 years without much stronger action to reduce emissions.

Climate change made Australian heatwave 5x more likely as scientists warn once extreme weather is "becoming the norm" 🧵 ow.ly/NqII50Y17KE

AUSTRALIA HEAT WAVE Brutal heat today with temperatures up to 48C in South Australia with the heat expected to just get worse. Next week will compete with Jan 1939 for the hottest week ever recorded in New South Wales: ‼️We can approach 50C

Similarly- we just got a Zeekr (I’d never heard of them before) and it’s ✨ insane ✨ what you get for the price… it’s what I imagine the difference is between cattle class and business (imagining because I’ve never flown business class 😝). China has done its homework.

We got a Geely and it's crazy good. High end luxury EV for $45.000
