I first noticed AIER in 2013, search for it in: www.desmog.com/2013/06/05/f... But later, it got taken over by the Kochtopus ~2017, search for "AIER Koch Transition" in www.desmog.com/american-ins...

It is going to be interesting over the next nine months to see how much misinformation #ACT & #AtlasNetwork try to flood media & social media with. And don't forget that the Atlas influence is showing up to a large degree in both #National & #NZFirst open.substack.com/pub/drbex/p/...

#NZ #AtlasNetwork Govt wants to bypass fast-track process for proposed liquefied natural #gas terminal -locking us into toxic imports of damaging #fossilfuels instead of cheap, clean rooftop #solar. #Democracy www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

mountaintui.substack.com/p/did-nicola... MUST READ on #AtlasNetwork’s latest moves in #Aotearoa #NZpol? When will the Kiwi press follow up on the very important questions @mountaintui.bsky.social raises here? When will the #Auspol press report the conversion of AoNZ to a crooked petrostate?

Download submission here www.aph.gov.au/DocumentStor... Worth it for summary of key findings and recommendations!

ABC News Four Corners ran Bondi story despite ASIO threats. Who to believe? michaelwest.com.au/four-corners... #AusPol

Memo to Angus Taylor, the LNP, Pauline Hanson, Advance etc. Your guy is doing it...

Good luck!

Can we get HG and Roy to live commentate? Gonna be a big game! Failing that if anyone is watching, please feel free to drop any comments on my submission (no 243, linked above) or the hearings in reply below... Here's the committee membership:

Thankyou for your efforts!!!! '🙏' + 🏆

HOW IT STARTED, HOW ITS GOING: IPA founded in 1943 by Murdoch Sr & the owners & CEOs of big mining corps. The same Melbourne Club elite formed the Liberal Party in 1944. In the 1980s, the IPA joins the #AtlasNetwork. The party of big oil, coal, gas & nukes, until all our kids are cooked.

My latest letter to the Age about the Libs leadership spill.

TOMORROW MORNING: I'm appearing at Senate hearings, talking about the #AtlasNetwork of 550+ orgs in 100 nations, the IPA, Centre of Independent Studies, Advance, and many other fossil corp/billionaire funded climate disinfo orgs. #Auspol #NZpol Tune in 10.30am AEST: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwuq...

Already, fewer than 1 in 5 younger & middle aged women vote for the Libs. Purging Sussan Ley won't help the party's women problem. #Auspol analysis by Aleta Moriarty michaelwest.com.au/pale-stale-a...

I don't pray for much, but I'll pray for this. Let this be a test not for the Liberals (who are already rooted) but for the rise of more Community Independents. This is how we take back our democracy. #Auspol

Starmer’s comparison of US to combined EU military hardware was deafening. Australia’s sign-on to #AUKUS has to be one of the most irresponsible Australian govt decisions ever. The only thing that could make this deal any worse is continuing to hang onto it. #auspol

a dog's breakfast

AUKUS is sinking and Labor responds by making up a $30 billion un-budgeted AUKUS announceable for the SA State election. This stuff is straying so far from reality.

This isn’t just a missed opportunity; it’s a full-on capitulation to the forces wrecking our planet. Labor is now on the same page as the environment-wrecking Liberals. What’s left? A track record of empty promises and a future for koalas, forests, and the climate that looks grim.

Yep, emboldened by Trumpian stupidity and cruelty, and then we'll be left to clean up the mess.

It seems that the US disease is spreading. They are striking while they have the momentum. Maybe?

They are a hideous outfit.Finocchiaro is as limited and rednecked racist as they come.

JFC how totally petty and short-sighted 🤦

She's very "Trumpist"!

Government? More like the Finocchiaro Kleptocracy. Guardrails, internal and external, being pulled down. Soon no-one to watch over and no-one to hold government to account. It's going far-right rogue and intends to allow the private sector evisceration of all of the NT's resources simply for profit.

What a malicious and small-minded act by the Finocchiaro government to scrap funding for the Environment Centre NT and the Arid Lands Environment Centre. ECNT and ALEC are the Northern Territory’s peak environment organisations. www.ecnt.org.au/forms/shares...

Essential. Ecosystems. Great infographic from UN Biodiversity (UNEP)

There’s a real opportunity for sensible reform to the CGT discount on investment properties to incentivise the new housing supply. It’s something Senator Lambie & I had the PBO model years ago & will keep pushing the govt to implement. It won’t solve housing affordability on its own but it’ll help

Ignore Trump. Focus on the US. Trump can talk all day, without the US machine behind him Trump’s talk means nothing. Focus on the greed and arrogance of the US.

More far right entanglement by SA premier.

There will be no submarines or shipyards, it’s all bull 💩💩 for the SA election . Where is Albanese now pulling 30 billion $$ from .

$30 billion would make a massive difference to emergency departments across the country. Instead we’ll be prepared for war, or something.

I would bet my piano that this facility will end up servicing US submarines. #AusPol

Hello #auspol This might be a better way to do #aukus youtu.be/mQYiXpKvGuA?...

youtube.com/watch?v=xqTY... “People have just begun to realise that while ALP give us medication at $25 instead of $31 per script while handing $20M a pop to the zionist lobby every time they scream “anti semite” they are no longer working for Australians” #auspol #ALP #zionistlobby #GazaGenocide

Maybe if we seized the capital of nations that engaged in war, capitalist nations would be less prone to starting them? theconversation.com/how-europe-c...

Almost certainly included. That will be why it is in SA. We need to vote in some #MPs who will talk with #communities HERE. Vote @greens.org.au and or #independents that represent your communities values and priorities. #auspol #SAVotes.

I support more cycling... but this morning one lone guy takes up an entire lane on busy Pittwater Road, almost causing 3 accidents as drivers try to get around him in the empty bus lane. Much honking and swearing. I get past him and see he's wearing headphones... So entitled. Grrrr!

Uk Labor are paying a political price for Starmer's Zionism, the UK Greens are now the second most popular party there, hopefully, in time, something similar could happen here.

It contravenes plenty of domestic and international laws, but there is zero government will to uphold and enforce. It's a disgrace. There is movement afoot amongst independent legal entities to bring people involved to account, but it will take a disheartening length of time to get any traction.

I'm not allowed to comment about this because criticising people I'm not allowed to comment about is not allowed. But I'm sure Mossad Minns has put his hand up and Albanese still reading the prospectus to make sure it doesn't affect his social cohesion.

I found out about the event in Melbourne from a friend in the Jewish community here who was livid and posting on her personal social media. It will get zero exposure here otherwise. Same events happening in NYC and London, UK this weekend. Despicable.

An event in a synagogue in Caulfield, Melbourne, today with representatives flogging "real estate developments& opportunities" in so-called Israel. Encouraging people to steal more Palestinian land& tear people from their homes. These ghouls live amongst us & get full backing from government #auspol

Trying to count how many “moderate” Liberals have resigned from their party. Just finishing up my sums now, with all the data in, the number is . . . zero. #AusPol

Let's not forget the party who destroyed our auto industry along with the heavy industries that fed into the auto industry; leaving 300,000 trades people and others on the dole... THAT effect on employment continues through to today. #LNPfail #auspol #LNPNeverAgain!

Murdoch's misogynist minions are trying so hard to paint Grace as irrelevant. Bringing attention to genocide is too ethical or humane for them. If Barnaby & Pauline are calling for something, always do the opposite. As this shero's t-shirt so eloquently put it, fuck Murdoch. #auspol #freepalestine

If this Premier's name was Andrews or Palaszczuk, this admittedly big SA story would be framed as a "big win" for Vic or Qld, with nary a mention of the person in charge. Nobody gets a better run from #NewsCorpse than Santos-connected, don't-upset-the-oligarchs, ex-Shoppie Peter Malinauskas #auspol

Aukus? When were the Australian public asked? When were we asked if Australia should become a nuclear nation? When were Australians asked if they want to become a nuclear target? When were we asked if we wanted to have nuclear weapons in our ports? #auspol #aukus #alp

Exaaactlyyyy 👇👇👇
