Predicting the extinction of the human race.

This is an excellent article by @ronnisalt.bsky.social for @theshot.net.au. It's all hands on decks between now and the next election, folks, to ensure those frustrated by the major parties have proper alternatives to these unconscionable grifters. theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

🔥 Israeli Ambassador Hillel Newman in desperate damage control defending the indefensible says despite Ben Gvir’s horrific tormenting of detainees inc Aussies, he’ll face zero consequences & a verbal condemnation is punishment enough.😳 This man is a disgrace & must be expelled.

The Jewish Council condemns degrading treatment of flotilla humanitarians by far-right Israeli government minister. See full release at: www.jewishcouncil.com.au/2026/05/jewi...

why would we need to save the Great Barrier Reef again when magnificent Malcolm Turnbull saved it eight years ago by giving $443 million public dollars to a tiny tax avoidance set-up controlled by fossil fuel executives. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Donald Trump is looting the US Treasury by setting up a “fund” to funnel cash to the violent Jan 6 rioters. Here Pauline MAGA Hanson declares she wants to be PM as Tony Abbott eyes a comeback. They all hate journalists. “Truth Lies & Media” is live!⚡️ 0n Apple & Spotify🍎 Promo Match Frame Editing

Phil Cleary is a VFA legend but far more importantly a tireless campaigner on male violence against women since the murder of his sister Vicki in 1987. Nearly 40 years on, the stats remain horrific & toxic masculinity still a scourge. Vicki Cleary Day is significant. Support it.

This explains a lot.

Wilson and Patterson get rolled out repeatedly as Liberal talking heads Both 'graduates' of the IPA and two people I think should be kept as far as possible from positions of power IMHO they have grand delusions well beyond their actual abilities

“One Nation is a policy-free, empty shell of nothing pumped up by fossil fuel money, hardcore conservative groups and poodle-haired media commentators who like to say ‘woke’ a lot.” Terrific piece by @ronnisalt.bsky.social #auspol theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

At what point will the government recognise that an independent review is necessary?

More AUKUS chaos. This is the worst decision the Labor govt has made. A conveyor belt of our money to the military industrial establishment. No guarantee of delivery. Weekly horror stories of delays, incompetence and production problems. Marles presiding over a defence disaster.

Media is enjoying obsessing over polls at the moment, except for this post-budget Resolve poll which has been quietly buried. Is it because it shows more Australians support cutting handouts to wealthy investors, than not? #auspol

Here we go again. My @smh @theage.

⚠️ WARNING: don't sign Tim Wilson's notthetax.com.au petition. New target: startup employees. Under the Spam Act 2003 and the Privacy Act, pre-ticked boxes that cannot be unticked do not constitute express consent. This is not a grey area.

Do these idiot Liberals realise 32% of the Australian population were born overseas? A huge voter-base that they are burning. Taylors xenophobia + Price's anti Indian-Australian vote killer + Hairbrush Hume's "Chinese spies" blockbuster. Who else can they insult? Disgraceful, unelectable. #auspol

Shithead

When I first heard about the ‘Australian Values’ migration policy, it sounded like a cross between a thought bubble & a dog whistle. Upon deeper inspection, it turns out to be a very expensive thought bubble and dog whistle. independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

The tobacco industry is still responsible for the deaths of 66 Australians every day. Phillip Morris was recently granted a secret Senate committee hearing on illicit tobacco. Big Tobacco has a long history of manipulating public debate and purchasing political access.

Thanks to @toiletpaperaus.bsky.social for this point. #auspol

Until last week 🇦🇺 was the only developed country with endemic trachoma, a devastating eye disease which often causes blindness. Many thousands of people have lost their sight to trachoma, which is much more common in indigenous communities.

Everywhere there is a need, the wonderful Sikhs turn up in their van offering delicious free food. I have seen them in places decimated by both fire and flood. Not for a photo op, but to actually help. I live in an extremely diverse suburb and love it. Give respect and get it back.

Tim Wilson has run this playbook since 2019: A website. A petition. Pre-ticked boxes. Data going somewhere you didn't agree to. Independent journalists & citizens doing the work the mainstream media refuses to do. Here is the documented case. 👇 open.substack.com/pub/suebarre... #auspol

Goldstein - the only electorate in Australia that voted outright on a singular issue that had nothing directly to with Australia and Australians The ONLY issue Wilson campaigned on GENOCIDE When people vote with no values should we wonder about the future? suebarrett.substack.com/p/the-scare-...

Where are the journos asking why hate laws dont apply to Angus Taylor who falsely implies migrants are rorting the Australian welfare system? The bullshitters&grifters are in the parliament Angus & flying Pauline Hanson around in a fancy plane. “TruthLies&Media”is live⚡️ Promo Match Frame Editing

HUGE NEWS! This morning, the owners of Newcastle Waters instructed management to immediately cease plans for the culling of 20,000 native corellas & galahs. When 1000s of Australians speak up for our iconic nature, the world listens. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. — Environment Centre NT

This will make your blood boil: a foreign-owned company wants to slaughter native birds in the NT so they can grow cotton. Please sign & share, thanks! #auspol www.ecnt.org.au/stop_the_sla...

For the current batch of bottom-of-the-barrel coalition politicians, "the future" extends only as far as the next election. After that, it's someone else's problem. They'll move to lucrative post-politics careers with the companies whose interests they furthered while they were in power. #AusPol

Australia: "Northern Territory records Australia's first diphtheria death reported in almost a decade amid outbreak." "Cases have been recorded in Western Australia, Queensland and South Australia, with a total of 161 testing positive for diphtheria nationwide."

the party of Robodebt has no leg to stand on when it comes to welfare issues. While the party of government should be under a million times more pressure to fix racist welfare programs that leave communities disadvantaged and vulnerable to attack

British-owned beef giant CPC has been granted a permit to poison and kill 20,000 native galahs and corellas at one of their vast cattle stations in the NT, Australia. #auspol #environmentaldisaster #shame #CPCcontroversy

Sarah Ferguson steamrolls Angus Taylor who doesn’t even know the cost of his signature indexing taxation policy, Taylor “it’ll be what is necessary”🤦‍♂️ Ferguson “how do you restore your economic credentials if you won’t put a number on a massive new policy?”💥🔥 #auspol Shocking

Kos Samaras has done the numbers: 4.5 to 5 million non-citizen residents in Australia, all of whom Angus Taylor has just declared unworthy parasites he's going to kick off the national teat. Suicide note.

Chalmers: genuine reform on housing tax, payday super, trusts. Gaps - gas tax. Taylor: 1 sound policy idea he couldn't cost on national TV. Welfare restrictions Kos Samaras calls electoral suicide. Hanson claimed credit before Taylor finished. New Friday piece 👇 open.substack.com/pub/suebarre...

Sarah Ferguson decimates Angus Taylor who can’t even say how many migrants he wants to cut despite announcing “one of the biggest cuts to immigration in Australia’s history” “A statement as bold as that requires a number to be put next to it. Otherwise it’s a slogan.”🔥 #auspol

Managing aspirations. My @smh cartoon.

COVID-19 death toll far higher than official numbers, says WHO "The World Health Organisation estimates that the COVID-19 pandemic caused 22.1 million excess deaths globally between 2020 and 2023. The figure is more than 3 times higher than the officially reported 7 million COVID deaths worldwide"

Summary: Anus Taylor and the Liberal party are fvcked! #auspol

The way we treat these essential workers is disgusting, the way we prevent home reunions for permanent residents is disgusting, the hurdles to citizenship are cruel. We are one of the riches countries in the world and we need to demand and elect better leadership. The land of the fair go my arse! 😡
