the other 100 pieces of legislation using crises to expand state control since September 2001 - laws used by authorities to specifically target Arabs and Muslims - did not prevent a mass shooting by two extremists. www.crikey.com.au/2026/01/20/a...

Australian officials are currently trying to scheme up ways to sneak the president of Israel into the country for a visit without him getting confronted by massive anti-genocide protests. Read that again. When you are doing things like this, you're on the wrong side of history.

I respect this person. She knows how it works and isn't afraid to call it as it is. Thank you Ingrid.

What this guy said. They can't even manage a decent corruption commission.

I am tired of tears and laughter, And men that laugh and weep; Of what may come Hereafter For men that sow to reap: I am weary of days and hours, Blown buds of barren flowers, Desires and dreams and powers And everything but sleep.

Your 'hope porn quote' for today: "We have the tools (nonviolence chief among them) to allow us to stand up to the powerful and the reckless, and we have the fundamental idea of human solidarity that we could take as our guide." www.goodreads.com/book/show/40...

True story

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

Yes, you are.

Arctic sea-ice has lost extent for 3 consecutive days and now ranks second lowest for the day. Will a new record low maximum be set next month? Stay tuned!

Reporting points to #MurdochRoyalCommission being at the centre of media corruption, profitting from censoring culture, art, & free speech on behalf of people acting in bad faith & with hate. @albomp.bsky.social & Labor can protect AU society with a Media Royal Commission. Will they? #AusPol ⚖️ 🐨 🇦🇺

Wont be long now.

Louise Adler sets out powerfully how the Adelaide Writers Week debacle was not a one-off. But part of a dangerous anti-democratic pattern of efforts by the Israel lobby, the Murdoch media, and their political supporters to cancel Palestinian voices and silence dissent. #abc730 #auspol

We ignore Louise Adler's warnings about #ZionistMcCarthyism at our peril. #auspol

"I think when we look back on this history we will see a masterclass in poor governance, an act of cultural vandalism, a moment when 180 writers said, 'We will not support censorship. We will not support the denigration of one particular writer,'" Ms Adler told 7.30.

Santoss made an ad for the 2026 Tour Down Under and it's surprsingly honest and informative! 🚴🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

Methinks we need better leaders… ones that represent the basic decency of most Australians Rather than the gazillionaires looking to make a quick buck from other peoples suffering The idea that money or weaponry are more important than rest of life on planet is sickening #auspol #spine

🚨Aggressive behind-the-scenes campaigning by pro-Israel lobbyists has led to the cancellation of Adelaide Writers' Week. The international event - which last year had 160,000 visitors - has been scrapped. Pro-Israel lobby is to blame, says event boss. theklaxon.com.au/twj1

@louiseadler07.bsky.social You are a legend. Thank you for providing clarity of thought in your 7:30 interview and putting the facts on the table.

You can’t say bigoted things, but your religious text can say bigoted things and you can say the religious text out loud. No more special rules for religion and religious people, they’ve proven they don’t respect that privilege. I suggest we cease electing religious people to represent us too.

So the NSW cops will be busting into Zionist synagogues arresting the rabbis who go to Israel to sign bombs and come back to recruit young Australian Jews to participate in the genocide? I mean that probably should happen but it’s not the plan. In Minns’ defence he’s clearly an idiot.

Would love the PM or Minns to explain how that pic is completely fine and normal

ICE = Immigrant and Citizen Executions

BREAKING: gouging out your eyes with a rusty fork could reduce glaucoma risk - but it could come at a cost

🚨 A bush fire information point today, Monday 12 January, to provide community members with information on the Brassknocker Firetrail Fire. #Wandella Community Hall, 1002 Wandella Rd, Wandella between 5pm-7pm. Full details in the ALT. #NSWfires

Al Gore: "Our constitution is intended to protect us against a threat identical to Donald Trump. Someone who seeks power at all costs to get more power."

Just a reminder: these photos federal agents are taking are part of a growing surveillance state w no oversight. Agents use facial recognition, phone tracking, license plate readers, fused government databases built by contractors like Palantir. What was tested on immigrants is expanding to citizens

#ffagenda Australia with its pro Trump fascism and of course abject far-RW radicalisation nonsense re climate change change global warming denial

"Quit demonstrating" is not something that a pro-democracy politician says. It's something that an authoritarian tool says.

People need to start considering at least the possibility that the last free and fair American election already happened and that no more of them lie ahead of us If you are not at least considering that possibility there is a good deal of modern history you need to re-read ASAP

I have queen girl friends in Melboutne

has anyone reported who the pro-Israel lobby have approved for Royal Commissioner in the actual inquiry already announced by Minns and supported in full by Albanese?

Mayor Frey responds after ICE shooting: "To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis."

And now she’s under attack by the Israel lobby in Australian More demands for censorship

• Israeli Govt ministers praise the rape of Palestinian prisoners • IDF soldiers boast of murdering Palestinian children & babies • Israeli settlers cheer destruction of Palestinian homes & the ethnic cleansing of Gaza & the West Bank. And our Western media is silent #IsraeliTerrorism #FreePalestine

Labor group urges Albanese to rescind invitation to Israeli president Isaac Herzog

NSW Police Commissioner says he's planning on extending the (already in place 3 month) anti-protest laws for another two weeks... Fuck this fascist shit. #Auspol

I have many complaints about the Albanese government, but occasionally I take a moment to count my blessings. #AusPol

Today our son-in-law turned 58. He’s a super nice guy. His family struggles to take care of him. I’ve mastered PEG feeding, so I can help when we visit. I’m participating in the 50-mile walk/run to encourage others to donate to @alsassociation.bsky.social to find a cure. Please donate if you can!

"What's that Skippy? You're calling for a Royal Commission." #auspol

I don’t blame the rest of the world for being angry and hating all Americans. We deserve their disdain. We should ban guns by the way since not one single American with a gun has used it to fight tyranny. Remember how that was always the excuse for gun humpers to have guns? What a bunch of bullshit!

This is not acceptable Labor.

Mainstream journos that think the US has gone too far with Venezuela. You're right. But where the fuck were you, and why the fuck were you quiet, when Trump/Biden flattened Gaza? Why can you talk about this abuse of decency and international law, but not Palestine? We see you.
