Imagine that

Large scale #wind projects are not getting finance and are not getting built. CEIG’s Richie Merzian discusses potential solutions, the looming CGT threat, and what’s wrong with the CIS. Plus: Big month for EVs, and #Fortescue’s plan to eliminate diesel.

as I've said on numerous occasions, Australian political cartoonist David Rowe exceeds many expectations with his interpretations of world events - to wit...

REMINDER: ICE Executed Renee Good 3 Months Ago. She Was Killed by the Kind of State Violence Our Founding Fathers Warned Against | Once a state teaches its agents that force is the solution, force becomes their habit. That’s how police states are formed out of democracies. #AbolishICE

But it’s ok for them to be on the gravy train because…MeRiT? BeTtEr GeNeS? 🤡 Or just because we’re suckers and they’re winners? 🤑

Noticed Michael Hintze got a mention in the DeSmog article being a big funder. Hintze’s hedge fund company, CQS, financed Abbott’s travel, accommodation, and hospitality during trips to New York and London in 2016, around the time of the UK Conservative Party conference.

Worth noting that Tony Abbott has just ceased as director/trustee at the Global Warming Policy Foundation: Atlas Network-interlinked, fossil fuel-funded, core of UK climate denial. (Missing Taiwan entry on this list.) www.desmog.com/2024/12/16/t... www.desmog.com/global-warmi...

Australia eyes new fuel supply from US, Mexico and Asia as diesel prices spike to record high

Israel killed 254 & wounded 700+ people in Lebanon in 100 air strikes in 10mins. I like ABC's Matthew Doran but this report rptedly incl. baseless Israeli propaganda. Impartial?

$1.4bn was bet on oil falling mere hours before Trump’s Iran ceasefire. It follows a pattern of suspected insider trading www.crikey.com.au/2026/04/09/d... #auspol

Trump: Place your trades and bets before my next announcement.

“In the same room where, days earlier, the Israeli Ambassador sprayed genocidal horsehit at the worst journalists in the world, “Albo” openly complained about Australians getting truth from non-sanctioned sources like independent journalism and social media.” theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

🔥 @rokhanna.bsky.social to Democratic leadership: “Get out. Let a new generation lead. You’ve been ineffective. The base doesn’t like you. The base wants fighters.”

Norway: has always taken 75+% tax from its offshore gas & oil, their huge national sovereign wealth fund supports free education & healthcare. Norway has almost 100% EVs in new car sales. Australia: a near zero tax regime for foreign fossil corps who run our 'debate' with #AtlasNetwork propaganda.

What the hell? I find that she finds it objectionable objectionable. Rapes are reprehensible but collective punishment is on a higher level of objectionable. Let's not forget that this collective punishment indeed included sexual violence, on top of genocidal mass murder.

Streamer and commentator Hasan Piker said that “if” Palestinian fighters carried out rapes & sexual violence on Oct. 7, it does not justify genocide against 2 million Palestinians in Gaza.

Eligible men will automatically be registered into the military draft pool by December as part of an effort to streamline the previous process of self-registration and save money.

that and taking money from healthcare to pay for an ongoing war that everyone hates. 🤣 like, I think they are trying to see how many seats they can lose.

Bringing back the draft is sure to win Republicans the mid terms 😂

PM @albomp.bsky.social, FM @senatorwong.bsky.social, DM Richard Marles, what will it take for your Labor govt to stop militarily & politically supporting Israeli-US war-mongering, mass civilian slaughter & genocide❓ Don't be afraid to take your lead from Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez👇👇👇

Not sure the leadership coaching is working. Full article by Jade Toomey and Steve Cannae: www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

this excellent 4Corners article was indicative of the ABC of yore (the one I remember & want reinstated). 👏Steve Cannane. BB - do you know why Jason Claire/Labor aren't addressing bad uni policy? iview.abc.net.au/show/four-co...

Beautiful understatement from the ABC as yet another "cost cutting" uni finds money for management consultants: "By 2025 UTS had paid [leadership coach] Beyond Excellence $1,487,461. "The same year a motion of no confidence in the vice-chancellor's leadership passed with support from 95 per cent "

Here's me. "What the fuck was that?!"

Hey @albomp.bsky.social - your Spanish counterpart can give you pointers on how to deal with the genocidal Netanyahu regime. #auspol www.livemint.com/news/us-news...

The Middle East is full of religious extremists who blindly revere evil men. Oops! I meant *The United States* not The Middle East.

Congress is on vacation

Nearly two years ago, I wrote about Trump's then obviously advancing cognitive decline. At the time, I thought that the press would be compelled to report, and voters would recognize, it. I was wrong.

Even if slow, good to see justice still works in Australia for our wannabe crusaders prepared to harm the innocent for their religious? cultural? agenda. Particularly by contrast with the US where his ilk has control of the military. #Auspol
