The jigs up America! The world knows exactly why you're invading the sovereign Nation of Venezuela, under the pathetic guise of illegal Fentanyl entering America via Venezuela, which is a complete SHAM, to cover your greed. #TrumpIsATraitorAndCriminal #TrumpIsANationalDisgrace #trumpisawarcriminal

Monday's cartoon in The Mercury Newspaper: Foul fishy florals

New world order AFR fill-in

Spoiler: 0 out of 5 look particularly good for the people of Venezuela

Great thread from Asher with heat tips for Melbourne here: adding this link for a list of free aircon places for kids & adults in the city. There'll be a lot of pissed people by early evenings so careful how you go & check for idiots passing stopped trams. www.melbourne.vic.gov.au/heatwaves

Hmm, seems the wheels of justice turn quickly in the US when the criminal president is from another country.

here we go again

With my social media history, including letters to The Age, looks like I will never be going to the US again. So disappointed. Graham Fetherstonhaugh, Carlton North. The Age, letters

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese refused on Thursday to commit to revamp the travel rules amid an outcry over politicians billing taxpayers to take relatives to premium sports events and on other travel www.afr.com/politics/fed...

I get to post this one twice a year

The definitive stories of some of the astonishing travesties at the State Library of Victoria in recent years, from its former Chief Curator. I witnessed some of it first hand. Rally 12.30 today at the Library. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

Bendigo Bank has pulled out of Nauru. Now it's time for Home Affairs to follow. You cannot inflict intentional cruelty on refugees without corruption.

The final report exposes the depth and breadth of failed leadership, corporate rot and consultant capture decaying our public universities. 🧵

And that’s why I was thrilled to announce today that there will be a funding boost to lock this program in to 2030.

“We live in one of the richest countries in the world... yet, when it comes to health, education, aged care... so many of these things are unaffordable.” - Dr Richard Denniss ✍️ Sign our petition urging our parliament to launch an inquiry into AUKUS: nb.australiainstitute.org.au/aukus_parlia...

None of these so-called religious folk can hold a candle to Father Bob. I know which man was a true man of faith who truly followed the words of Jesus Christ. None of these religious nutters come close. I know which 'man of faith' I'd give a few bucks to, and it ain't the RWNJ religious whackos.

Running out of patience with Labor’s caution, all in the Monday Essay from New Politics. READ, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE, OR THROW ROTTEN FRUIT AT US. #AUSPOL @dlew919.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/newpolit...

Hmm. See both images. The protestors were just holding a "Put Australia First" banner in front of the "Jesus" banner attached to the truck. Same protest, same truck, same place, same time, but it's about freedom and digital ID etc. Nothing to do with evangelical cookers? Righteo. 😜

Labor Party's dodgy $2.6 billion Nauru scam to be exposed in new Senate Inquiry youtu.be/SnniZPFRAgk

Sometimes you have to call these One Nation attacks on migrants out for what they are 🤮

How ludicrous for Labor to cut $5 billion in public services during a cost of living crisis. Every six months the government pays around $5b in Fuel Tax Credits to mining corporations to burn fossil fuels. If Labor is going to cut spending, cut handouts to fossil fuel barons.

Facebook is a scam factory. Meta's own internal audit reveals 10% of their revenue comes from spam advertising - $16bn annually. Between 2020-2023 scam losses in Australia increased 249%. In 76% of cases, contact occurred on Meta platforms (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp).

You can't be a serious Australian party if you can't support Australia.

Why are we sacking scientists who are so essential to understanding our climate crisis? To understanding the horrific algae bloom assaulting SAs beaches? The changes in our oceans? Madness. www.indailysa.com.au/news/opinion...

You can read the whole article here. Be assured we will follow this up next week in Senate Estimates! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

We welcome APRA taking action in response to the Greens’ & community concerns for the massive spike in investor lending. However, this alone won’t cool investors’ stampede of the housing market. Jim Chalmers must direct APRA to use their levers to curb runaway investor lending.

Repping King Stingray for #AusMusicTShirtDay. I’ll always back Aussie music and the people who make it.

Labor and the Coalition voted against me moving a motion to recognise Israel's genocide in Gaza. After Israel has murdered thousands of Palestinians, destroyed Gaza, starved children, blocked aid, expanded illegal settlements in the West Bank, Labor still refuses.

We’re getting on with the job of the energy transition because the facts show it’s in Australia’s national interest.  After a decade of denial and delay, the coalition continues to deny climate change is real and want to stop taking action all together.

Labor is the party of lower income taxes, higher wages and less debt, and the Liberals are the party of higher taxes, lower wages and bigger deficits.

BREAKING: Our legislation on local content requirements for streaming services just passed Parliament. No matter which remote control you’re holding, Australian content will be at your fingertips.

The Cheaper Home Batteries program has now introduced to the grid over 3 gigawatt hours of capacity.  We're getting on with the job.

This man’s values are based in power, greed and division. They are so far removed from the values of the Australian people. We need a government that has the courage to stand up to him, reject his racism, reject US bases and forge an independent peaceful path for Australia.

Huge day today, chairing a meeting of Treasurers which was all about building more homes and working hard together to make our economy stronger, more competitive and more productive in the interests of the Australians we represent. #auspol
