Today seems like a good day to remind people that Trump's first act as president this term was to pardon over a thousand people who committed political violence on his behalf.

Did anyone else look at (some of) the images of town camp in Alice Springs in the #Nine papers and think: hmm,poverty porn or racism porn? Or, both?! No doubt the age is getting ready to do a huge campaign on ‘housing and equity for all’ Well, we hope so. Bastards. #auspol

A reminder that both Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris literally warned everyone that SCOTUS was on the ballot. They were right yet again.

Afternoon all! Fastest ever royal commission I've ever heard of.

Pauline Hanson billed taxpayers for flights to fundraisers, just to connect to a Rinehart private jet to Florida. IPEA rules say taxpayers shouldn’t pay for political fundraising travel. Why is the “battler’s friend” rorting the system? #auspol

Oh look, it's the future of being disabled in Australia, given the mainstream media's rhetoric around the NDIS. [ h/t @maicolourlife.bsky.social ] #auspol

🤣🤣🤣🤣 delusional American living under a government that enables murder of citizens in the street, disappearing people & attacks people who joke about dear leader (also refuses visas to those mean to Trump etc) says Australian government is oppressive #auspol

think fewer ppl believ their schtick. Trouble is-they’re turning to ON. Still funny: my mum had an old fashiond radio sitting on the fridge. When Howard/costello/reith - any of them came on, she’d gallop across the room and turn the radio OFF! ‘Not paying the electricity to hear that twerp’ #auspol

Yes -just read it. A good read. Sometimes I think : well. He wasn’t the worst. #auspol

Isn't it nice that The Australian is already providing loopholes for its wealthy readers to avoid paying their fair share of tax? 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠 Dole bludgers bad Middle- and upper-class rorters good #AusPol

Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe

Sigh. It’s necessary to do a lot of scrolling to get past the latest US -authoritarian , orange -mad -man news. On all the media apps I have. Ugh. #auspol

... and if we end Welcomes to Country altogether, Louise*, we could sweep the whole "closing the gap" thing back under the carpet! 🎉⤵️ It's all about "social cohesion", people! #auspol

You wouldn’t have visited the Third Reich in 1938, so don’t visit #Trump ‘s Turd Reich this year! #cdnpol #auspol #ukpol #nzpol #FIFA

Reminder: Israel bulldozed the Gaza War Cemetery in Al-Tuffah, Gaza City, destroying graves of British, Australian, and other allied soldiers from World War I and II. The war cemetery had been cared for by a Palestinian family for several generations. #AnzacDay #LestWeForget #FreePalestine #auspol

Precisely. Which members of which party /ies can use these Australians As click bait for voters ? I keep thinking how dumbarsed I was when I was a teenager and all the mistakes I made. These women get nothing in the way of compassion. Not their kids. I hate it. #auspol

Labor isn’t posturing. They’re following the law. These people are Australian, with passports. They’re free to come back. It would have happened, with no headlines, except Taylor & Hanson are creating anxiety. Who can dog whistle the loudest

I was just thinking: if Marles, Albanese or Wong had kids with rotting teeth ,wouldn’t they try, too, to reach a country where the kids had citizenship. I HATE this hardline posturing #ISISBrides #auspol

What a disgusting disgrace for a President. 🖕🍊🌮💩 ✊🔥✊

I guess we’d have to include informed consent for Senator P?

*No one* is saying they don’t pay tax. They don’t pay their fair share and Australia isn’t getting the taxes that other countries do for the same natural resources. Japan makes a profit reselling our gas because it’s so cheap. Pretending this isn’t a problem has zero credibility. #GasTax #AusPol

David Pocock beside himself as Shell’s Cecile Wake insists she doesn’t know Shell’s revenue, or how much gas they export, while she fronts an inquiry on Gas Exports. Sarah Hanson-Young: “What did you think we were going to be asking you about today?” 🔥🙄 #auspol

"The University of Queensland has decided to pulp all 5,000 copies of a children’s picture book written by an Indigenous poet, after media queries from #NewsCorp’s The Australian newspaper that levelled accusations of anti-Semitism against the book’s illustrator.” #auspol #UQ #weaponisedantisemitism

‘NDIS costs too much’. Wow. Who wrote Butler’s speech?

The liberal democracies Taylor is talking about to fast track migrants from include Israel, South Africa and America. Australia can well do without the IDF setting up shop in Australia. #auspol

Trump and his sons have enriched themselves by over 4 Billion dollars since he came into office This is by FAR the most corrupt administration ever

#Hegseth a #SwingingDick fascist Christian nationalist defense secretary, elevated from his role as a weekend Fox News TV host, has plucked a fake Bible verse from a violent Hollywood blockbuster, Pulp Fiction, & presented it at a Pentagon prayer session to rally troops for the “holy war” in Iran

"I don't even know what that phrase means and I doubt that I said that... How I can I answer something that I didn't say... I'd like to hear the recording." Okay RFJ Jr. Here you go. Here's you caught lying on tape: www.youtube.com/shorts/ryyb_...

Ugly stuff

Its worked so well for American tourism

This is exactly why I built my publication thedissident.news on ghost instead of substack. Substack monetizes nazis and now human traffickers like Andrew Tate.

Which values would those be? #sexism, #racism and #xenophobia ? Do nothing to care for children and elderly? Exploit and extract for #profit until the planet in not a habitat for humans? Well done Angus! #auspol

“This is, apparently, because public servants who have done wrong and damaged the public interest should not be, like murderers, paedophiles and thieves, exposed to public shaming and a loss of the respect of their peers and the wider public.” #auspol

Chris Bowen reminds the media it was Labor in 2023 who put the law in place for fuel reserves to be kept in Australia after “4 refineries closed” under the Coalition. “It hadn’t happened until then” “If I was the Liberal Party, I’d stay pretty quiet about these matters.”🔥 #auspol

Incredible. Taylor sees the hugely divisive and aggressive Trump immigration policies, including ICE, and decides that’s exactly what Australia needs. Taylor can FRO 🤬

He certainly does look unwell. And he talks drivel. Why do they give him airtime

And yet congress again does nothing. The announcement of a blockade is a recognized act of war; under our existing Constitution (who only for how long) only Congress can declare war at the request of the president. So why don’t they do this? And if they are not in concurrence, stop funding..
