Australia just had its 8th hottest summer on record and its wettest summer in almost a decade. Instead of addressing the floods and fires and helping communities, Albanese is approving fossil fuel projects and giving these companies billions in subsidies and tax breaks.

It’s giving Betoota Advocate headline. Liberal senator, Michaela Cash, responds to Pauline Hanson’s Islamophobic comments.

Penny Wong’s answer when asked about the legal basis for Trump/Netanyahu’s attack on Iran: “I will leave it for the United States and Israel to speak of the legal basis for the attacks.”

“Reach new heights” - kill more people in genocides

Angus Taylor’s Liberal party is imploding and this is how he chooses to use his time?

Would love to see our politicians working on actually policy instead of arguing about how to criticise a survivor advocate for speaking up about a genocide.

Just opened TikTok to find the Trump administration blackmailing Minnesota by halting healthcare funding. J.D. Vance said they want to ensure Minnesota “takes its obligations seriously to be good stewards of the American people’s tax money.” In the last month, Trump’s ICE has killed two people.

Can’t wait to hear Albanese’s International Women’s Day speech next week after he’s called survivor advocate Grace Tame “difficult” and has now tried to backtrack on it. Actions speak louder than words, and with the increase in sexual assaults, we need policy, not blabbering.

Instead of addressing policy issues, Prime Minister Albanese spent his week deflecting blame by: - calling survivor advocate, Grace Tame, “difficult” and that - Senator Pocock was “promoting grievances” by calling out the gov for taxing beer drinkers more than billion dollar mining companies.

Remember when the Labor government promised to fix our broken environmental laws? Well they just approved the bulldozing of ~3 THOUSAND HECTARES of tropical savanna harming endangered species.

A reminder that immigrants are not just "GDP boosters" and "labour shortage fillers” but human beings with rights and a life to live. So many articles use economics to justify the existence of only the non-white immigrants, making it an issue about racists being racist rather than anything else.

The mainstream news coverage of Pauline Hanson and the Trump tower coming to the Gold Coast, while anti immigration sentiment grows. Just a few bits of racist slop that those in power are feeding into right now.

Have been a KATSEYE hater since day 1. Not because the girls aren’t talented, but because their creators, HYBE & GEFFEN, alongside the training program, prioritise sponsorships and sexualisation over mental health and let the girls’ talent actually shine.

The BoM has warned Queensland and NT to expect life threatening flooding, and Victoria to expect damaging landslides while bushfires are burning. Instead of supporting these communities, Labor approved a coal mine extension 2 weeks ago, fuelling the frequency/intensity of these floods and fires.

Albo will bet $30 BILLION on submarines the US probably won’t sell us but won’t push for Australia’s chance to become a republic. This is despite years of allegations against the royals for racism, sexual assault and now Andrew’s arrest.

One down and Trump and the other billionaires to go. A huge day for survivors and hopefully another push for Australia to become a republic - our taxpayer money doesn’t need to fund folks like this.

Appalling that Chris Minns wished the Muslim community Ramadan Mubarak while justifying police brutality against the community while they were praying.

4 THOUSAND sq km of land for onshore petroleum exploration was just released by the NT government. This area is over FIVE times the size of Singapore. Fracking on the land will: - affect local communities and - further fuel the intensity, and frequency of heatwaves/droughts/floods.

I can’t believe someone played this headline. It doesn’t make want to read the article, but just hate the publication.

We added a Day of Mourning for the Bondi tragedy nationally. We added an extra public holiday in NSW for ANZAC Day. So surely we can change/abolish Australia Day.

Chris Minns will harp on about an extra public holiday for NSW and the "spirit of remembrance" and ANZAC day but can’t acknowledge the police brutality against civilians calling for the end to a genocide in his own state.

The Alabanese government just approved the extension of a coal mine, adding up to 100,000,000,000s of tonnes of future emissions. We’ve already had terrible floods and heatwaves this year fuelled by coal mining and this extension means more intense and frequent disasters.

While the Albanese government parade Israeli President Herzog around with big smiles and drinks at the ICCC, Israel’s security cabinet’s announced it would expand control over the West Bank and “continue to kill the idea of a Palestinian state.”

Conservative media and politicians love to harp on about the cost of police during protests. But they seem pretty silent now, given that there will be 3 THOUSAND extra police shifts, with 500 alone on one day all to protect Israel President Herzog.

Sydney CBD + Eastern suburbs shut down for 5 days for the Israeli President’s arrival. Meanwhile our democratic right to protest is an “unnecessary burden” according to Chris Minns. This government will accommodate a mass murder but not the rights of the people who live here.

Minister Penny Wong is justifying the Israeli President’s visit to Australia based on “context”. Does she mean Israel’s killing of over 70000 Palestinians since Oct 2023? Or Israel’s continued expansion on Palestinian land over the last 75+ years? Or is it Israel’s violation of the ceasefire?

NSW Premier Chris Minns says the same protests “weekend after weekend” are too disruptive and he will crack down on them. 1. Protests are meant to raise awareness + disrupt, so they’re working 2. We’d have fewer protests if the government didn’t support genocide

The One Nation vote is at an all time high. It’s clear Parliament platforms Islamophobia by platforming Pauline Hanson. If Albanese is concerned about “social cohesion” then this means addressing Islamophobia through education, not dangerous and divisive hate speech laws.

One Nation just called to end all Muslim migration and “net zero” migration. Their vote is at an all time high. It’s clear Parliament platforms Islamophobia by platforming Pauline Hanson. Albanese’s concerns about “social cohesion” must address Islamophobia and educate Australians on anti-racism.

The major parties used the anti-Semitic attack in Bondi to advance their political agenda. Instead of “social cohesion” we saw - divisive and dangerous hate speech laws pass - the Coalition choosing to implode on the Day of Mourning. We need leadership not petty fighting.

Mum wake up, the Coalition is fighting again. In all seriousness, these laws haven’t satisfied any party’s asks and rushing through this legislation has just led to danger and divisiveness. This isn’t the way to bring social cohesion.

Victoria has faced blazing bushfires and unprecedented floods in less than one week. This is not normal. The Prime Minister’s thoughts and prayers won’t help. Tangible policy is what we are desperate for.

The National Day of Mourning for the Bondi attack shows us the government’s power to change/abolish Australia Day. But instead, they’ve ignored calls from many First Nations Peoples to: - stop celebrating colonialism + genocide; and - abolish/replace it with a Day of Mourning/Survival Day.

A huge win that Adelaide Writers’ Festival's racist decision led to its cancellation. An absolute shame that our institutions make us choose between racism and sharing art and the power of storytelling.

The reaction to the Adelaide Writers’ Festival’s racist decision shows us the power of people: - over 100 authors have withdrawn, including a former Prime Minister - organisations and sponsors withdrew - the chair and 4 board members resigned Now the event’s viability is being questioned.

“The prime minister, Anthony Albanese, told Victorians: “We’ve got your back”.” This coming from the PM who approved the extension of Woodside’s North West Shelf project, which is expected to generate 4 billion tonnes of emissions over 50 years, further fuelling these fires.

The Coalition made a fuss about dropping net zero by 2050, but has said little to nothing about the bushfires costing livelihoods, homes, and 1000s of taxpayer dollars. A bare minimum policy to mitigate the severity and frequency of fires is supposedly “too radical.”

National Royal Commissions cost between $30 - $600 million, can take years, and their impact is questionable. Albanese has caved to the Murdoch media’s call instead of making informed policy decisions. The RC into anti-Semitism delays calls for real justice for all.

~80% of emergency services personnel during the 2019/20 bushfires volunteered - earning $0. We’ll likely see the same in 2026. Meanwhile, in 2024, CEOs of companies fuelling these fires earned: - Rio Tinto: $9.2 million - Santos: $8.4 million - Woodside: $7.45 million - Whitehaven: $6.6 million

Several parts of Australia are likely to face the worst heatwaves since the 2019/2020 bushfires. Volunteers and underpaid frontline workers will step up to help communities. Meanwhile, in just one year, the Australian government gave $14.9 billion in subsidies to fossil fuel producers and users.

If you think Trump's comments about capturing oil in V aren't sincere because the country has bad, old and inefficient fossil infrastructure, I regret to inform you that all fossil fuel infrastructure is bad, old and inefficient and none of these people actually care about the process or product

Trump taking control of Venezuela shows us why we need to fight for climate justice. Venezuela has the most oil reserves in the world, and the US has the power to lead on renewable and just energy sources, but is choosing imperialism to extract and pollute instead.

FYI, (since mainstream media isn’t reporting it): - Israel banned humanitarian agencies from Gaza on 1 Jan. This includes Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam and Caritas - Since the October “ceasefire”, Israel has killed over 400 Palestinians and injured over 1000 Palestinians.

My feed right now - Harry Styles’ new video - Trump and Nigeria - Olivia and Louis break up - Gaza - Timothy Chalamet and his questionable method acting

Activists to bring constitutional legal case against the Labor government’s new laws banning protests for up to 3 months, claiming they infringe on the implied right of free speech. Palestine Action Group Sydney, Jews Against the Occupation and Blak Caucus will bring a claim after the laws pass.

Chris Minns’ ban on protests calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza does not foster “community harmony". These protests oppose anti-Semitism and call for peace. Taking our democratic rights away is only sowing more division.

Chris Minns is using Sunday’s tragic events to introduce anti-protest laws in the name of “community harmony”. Over 20 years, ~50 laws affecting our democratic right to protest have been introduced. That does not foster harmony. Taking action on anti-semitism and Islamophobia can.

We should be supporting the Jewish community and working to combat anti-semitism. But some in power are instead spewing misinformation and conflating peaceful pro-Palestine marches with the horrifying attack. We can call out anti-semitism without suppressing the call for a Free Palestine

Sending so much love to folks in and around Bondi. Please don’t share graphic footage and know that times like these are no excuse for racism or abusing a minority group - am already seeing this online in comment sections and it happens every time.
