Reminder... Any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message — they can't win on their ideas alone.

#boycott farmed Tasmanian salmon

This is Too Too hot...🔥🔥🔥

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

"The Liberals can no longer attract serious representatives. Instead, they pick through the dregs of whatever crawls out of the right-wing swamp. This is the hallmark of a minor rightwing party from the fringes of politics, not the MO of a major party." open.substack.com/pub/tdunlop/...

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

Trump surrendered again on tariffs after the bond market went nuts, which he and his advisers were too stupid to foresee, then he was unable to get House Republicans to agree on a budget deal even after it was brought to the floor for a vote, all while claiming victory the entire time.

Trump caved because our creditors—China, Japan, Europe—started dumping U.S. bonds. He picked a fight with the people holding our debt. They flexed. He folded. We pay!!!! I'm pissed.

Incredible. The Trump administration calculated "tariff rates" by taking the US trade deficit with the respective country and dividing it by the country's exports to the US. And then the tariff rate of the US is often just set by cutting that made-up "tariff rate" in half.

Tasmanian salmon is a classic case of why industry needs strong regulations to succeed. Tasmanian and federal regulators have failed to rein in the worst excesses of the fish farm industry. The industry is now under threat, because its products are toxic www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Cross the 'fake tradie' off your Australian election campaign bingo card! @arielbogle.bsky.social has the goods www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The stupidity in Trump’s new tariffs is apparently limitless. He has introduced a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory. The only inhabited island there is Diego Garcia, home to US service personnel. TRUMP HAS PUT A TARIFF ON A US MILITARY BASE 🤡

And there it is. Always remember the US don’t have to give us anything for our $368bn. NOTHING. The dumbest procurement deal ever agreed to in Australian political history www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Forensic doctor who examined bodies of some of the 15 paramedics and Palestinian rescue workers shot dead by Israeli forces and buried in a mass grave has said there’s evidence of execution-style killing, based on the “specific and intentional” location of shots www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded www.economist.com/leaders/2025...

Step right up to feast your eyes upon the very first Liberal Lies collector card, in which we answer: When is the best time to start focusing on the cost of living? Well, right after you've lost an election, of course! Collect them all ... so you don't elect them all! Follow for more.

If the Aust Govt does not denounce this immediately, we are complicit in approving ethnic cleansing of a historic level

There is an imbalance between what is news and what news orgs believe news to be, and this whole Biden-must-step-down cycle, now more than a week on front pages, is a prime example of that. Notice the breadth of this-from news to opinion-and lack of balance on Trump and the right wing power grab.

Caller to 3AW: 'Me and my friends are starting to hate Arabs. We need to stop them coming into our country. We need to show them the upper hand.' Tom Elliott's response: 'Yeah maybe, Ken.' And then: 'Coming up, we look at woke pubs'.

Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on the Trump case is here www.justice.gov/storage/Repo...

Flow batteries can feed energy back to the grid for up to 12 hours – much longer than lithium-ion batteries, which only last four to six hours.

Holy SHIT, Jack Smith gives no more f*cks: “Mr. Trump's letter claims that dismissal of his criminal cases signifies Mr. Trump's "complete exoneration…That is false.” Translation: Trump’s immunity argument is bullshit and he’s GUILTY.

I don't think I have ever seem a norm go from widely accepted to completely irrelevant as quickly as the importance of minimizing conflicts of interests

What a random thing to push before taking office. I wonder what the reason might be? 🤔

His insane nominations... His promises to deploy the military on home soil... His threats to go after anyone who opposes him... Now, there are messages going out to specific communities threatening deportation and "re-education camps". It's by design. His objective is to fill you with fear ...
