4 Corners and Media Watch tonight. Our national broadcaster the ABC nails it again tonight. 🙏 #auspol

😂

Imagine being so desperate for money, friends or relevance that you become Karl Stefanovic. #auspol

Thank you Peter Hartcher. #insiders #auspol

"So ... so I said ... why not sign your treaty here, at Versailles?"

“Versailles is not gold leaf. Versailles is the real deal.” Trump might like to remember what happened to the folks who lived at Versailles and take a lesson from that. 🍰

Even assuming that anything Musk says he will do is true .. why are SpaceX investors under the delusion that he’ll live another hundred years to get them done? Or is basic maths on any matter really just not their thing?

Front page news from today: 1. Nurses cannot afford to rent within even an hour of where they work. 2. Elon Musk is the world’s first trillionaire and richer than the world’s next four richest people. The seeds of the revolution have been sown.

It’s almost as if, in fact, Elon Musk is a total fucking idiot and charlatan.

My god. Look who’s calling whom an arrogant prick. #auspol

Sorry, what did Tony Blair say about whose “almost infinite capacity for self-delusion”??

Alan Koehler and Jim Chalmers, the only two people on #Insiders today talking sensibly about policy.

What’s more obscene: A. Jeff Bezos’s patronage of the Met Gala? B. The actual $100,000 cost of a single ticket, which is enough to buy a van for someone to live in? Because more people live in their cars these days thanks to the hoarding of wealth by a greedy few. #LetThemEatCake

Compare the pair - Hastie vs Taylor on #Insiders. I wouldn’t vote for either of them but the distinction in values is clear. I might not agree with any one person’s values but I would far prefer they had them and adhered to them with integrity than not. #auspol

It is absolutely wild to hear Melanie Trump complain about people being, “devoid of ethical standards, humility and respect.” Meanwhile, thanks to her husband, people die, lose their homes, lose their livelihoods, lose their loved ones. My blood is boiling right now.

More than 1 in 4 voting South Australians just directed their first preference to One Nation. However you explain it, this is cause for thoughtful and determined action. Don’t require people to be perfect, do encourage them to be better. #auspol

you know, it doesn't really matter what my opinion of robert mueller was, the president of the united states saying out loud that he's glad a lifelong public servant is dead is terrible fucking behavior and i don't need to clear my throat about what mueller did or did not do in order to say that

You broke it, you bought it. #Trump #Iran #Hormuz

Does Gina know how opposed to billionaires Barnaby Joyce apparently is? #insiders #auspol

Suddenly #Insiders feels like #SkyNews. Plus, Barnaby Joyce tying himself into knots trying to have it all ways. #auspol

In David Littleproud’s defence, Barnaby Joyce is spitting chips right now. #auspol

The plan emerges! 1. Barnaby joins ON, playing loyal henchman to Pauline. 2. Pauline does Pauline. 3. Barnaby’s bestie launches external attack. 4. Forced to accept the mantle of leadership, Barnaby reluctantly steps forward .. pushing Pauline off the dais. They’re out to git ya, girl! #auspol

The look of love. #dogsofbluesky

The difference between ICE and the SS at this point??

4. The effect of speech on action 5. How we create hatred and its appropriate role in our world. It has been a week of much heat. Hoping soon for a week that brings commensurate levels of light. #adelaidewritersweek #auspol

Specific topics might have included: 1. What are the acceptable limits of offence, towards whom, and the form and frequency within which we might engage with it 2. The separate and discrete effects of trauma and privilege on tolerance 3. The difference between self-censorship and sensitivity 🧵

I’m imagining what Adelaide Writers Week would have looked like if it had gone ahead, with those writers who withdrew attending to talk about what free speech means to them, and how we can engage in civil discourse over matters on which we violently and urgently disagree. 🧵

This is a metaphor for something happening in the US right now, I’m pretty sure. #nokings #resist

This 👇 The idea that this additional video is seen as vindicating by the Trump administration is mind blowing.

The deafening sound of all those free speech absolutists leaping to defend @imranahmed.bsky.social’s right to say things they disagree with. 😶

Barnaby’s petty, petulant ‘it’s all about me’-ness is on display for the world to see. #auspol

Watching Ryan Murphy’s latest ‘All’s Fair’ and honestly cannot wait for the revolution to come. The only thing I’m conflicted about is what should be done with Naomi Watts. I hold out great hope for de-programming.

Robyn Denholm: “Without Elon, Tesla could lose significant value, as our company may no longer be valued for what we aim to become.” An open admission that Tesla’s share price has never been based on its present reality but on Musk’s mirage of the future.

Matt Canavan on #Insiders - borderline Mark Humphries. #auspol

JUST when you thought @barnabyjoycemp.bsky.social had run out of new ways to embarrass himself! 😅😂🤣🤡 #auspol

The only difference between Peter Thiel and a homeless person raving about the end of the world is that Thiel can afford to rent a hall while the homeless guy makes do with a subway platform.

What the very fuck?!! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Law Roach calling out contestants on Project Runway S21 for being rude and disrespectful.. whilst being mean, rude and disrespectful. Ugh.

Get over it people. You may think James Comey is a d*ck but .. 🤷‍♀️ Remember, we’re the ones who are supposed to stand for due process and rule of law, to whomever they must be applied.

This feels weird but … kind of hoping Johnson & Johnson take a leaf out of his playbook and sue Donald Trump for damaging the reputation of Tylenol.

Today’s headline should be: ‘Trump makes a fool of himself at the UN by saying a heap of dumb and false stuff.’ Why isn’t it?

This IS the “grab them by the pussy” guy.

Start the feedback process. #BoycottDisney

Well done @johnthelyonsden.bsky.social for doing good, public interest journalism. Yet again. 👏👏 Keep going. #auspol

John Lyons is one of Australia's best reporters. You should read some of his top notch analysis on international affairs. www.abc.net.au/news/john-ly... #ThisIsJournalism

Haha. Of course the white man on the couch knows better what is racist than the brown woman. But it might stand that Jacinta Price is more rank opportunist than genuine racist. #auspol #insiders

Charlie Kirk was a person. He might not have cared if I died, but if I don’t care that he died then I’ve already lost. I believe in the dignity of all human beings and I want to live in a society that treats each of us as sacred and ensouled.

I accept the sincerity of Linda Reynolds’s feelings of offense but I do not believe that suing a rape survivor (on the balance of probabilities) into pennilessness is how women support (damaged) women. #auspol #theliberalswomenproblem

"People who attend the “March for Australia” rallies will almost certainly be marching alongside white supremacists and neo-Nazis," "Politicians from all sides should be at the counter-protests this weekend to demonstrate that neo-Nazis have no place in Australia." @ebonybennett.bsky.social #auspol

‘Bec Freedom’ and March for Australia. Too ignorant to know that all ‘white Australians’ are immigrants or immigrant stock and that ‘Australian culture’ is 60,000 years old. Australia has a black history and the longest continuous living culture in the world. March for that instead. #auspol
