Mike Johnson is refusing to swear in Democrat Adelita Grijalva who was elected to the Arizona House. That's because she would be the majority vote to release the Epstein Files. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro slammed the U.S. for revoking his visa, calling it a blatant breach of head-of-state immunity and international law, condemning the barring of the Palestinian Authority, and demanding the U.N. headquarters be moved from New York www.commondreams.org/news/gustavo...

I believe that once Republicans shutdown the government, in addition to fixing healthcare, Democrats should demand and force the release of the un-redacted Epstein files for the world to see. Democrats are going to have Johnson and Chump by their tiny balls, so now go for the jugular.

New week's cover of The New Yorker, "Remote Control," by Barry Blitt.

The left was derided for promoting a cancel culture because they went after predators and those who abused their wealth and power. The right is canceling anyone who dares speak truth to power. Both sides are not remotely the same.

NEW: Brendan Carr — the FCC official who had a role in suspending Jimmy Kimmel amid Trump’s crackdown on speech under the flag of stopping “political violence” — once railed against censorship specifically against “late-night comedians” and said Donald Trump was responsible for “political violence.”

🚨NEW: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" just dropped its first response to ABC, FCC chair, and Disney firing Jimmy Kimmel. Trump ain't sleeping tonight. 🤣 This is a must-watch. 🔥

Fucking maniac! The press conference with #Netanyahu is next level. Two of the most dangerous men in the world! ##GazaGenocide

Just about describes #Dutton & the #LNPCorruptionParty. #DuttonIsAFascisr #DuttonIsARacist #DuttonIsCreepy ##LNPNEVERAGAIN

Another good read. Labor’s soft landing is working www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi... via @thesaturdaypaper.com.au

Freakin hilarious 😂 🤣😂🤣#Cookers www.instagram.com/reel/DE_-sOK...

So after #scummo fecked off, I thought my days of yelling at the television but here we fukn are 🤬 #DuttonIsALiar #DuttonTheDivisive ##LNPCORRUPTIONPARTY ##LNPNEVERAGAIN #auspol

“Like all bullies, Dutton is a coward with a glass jaw. When the going gets a bit tough he disappears ala Scooter Morrison. He disparages questioners, attacks the weak and vulnerable. He is, to put it in the technical terms of the cognoscenti, a complete prick.” theaimn.net/spud-stands-...

If they offered *me* $15/month to recreate my X account, then I'd consider it. I'd then write some automated code that just logs in, posts "Elon Musk is still a Nazi cunt" (with some suitable hashtags) every hour or so, then log off.

Dunno if Elon meant to throw a Nazi salute (twice) or not, but if they were a mistake coming from the guy who recently supported AfD (the far right German Party), it would be one of the biggest, ugliest, stupidest political gaffes of the last decade.

Can @bsky.app create a FB/Insta style app without the crazy conspiracy truth denying nut job owner? I'd really like to ditch #meta like I have #twitter & #Musk

Started a new hobby for the NY, booknooks, I'm hooked. This one is for granddaughter 4 ❤️

Dear @australianlabor.bsky.social Finland teaches children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. This starts in primary school. Something to consider for Australia. 🤔 #auspol #education

The Libs nukes policy is based around "playing the ref". They know the costs and timing of nukes are a horror show, so rather than admit defeat they have devoted their efforts to trying to say CSIRO don't know what they're talking about.

Slowly but surely they nibble away until . . . . .

When you compare the size of the top glass to the size of the bottle you understand how brilliant this cartoon is—and how accurate

Loonies gunna loon 🤯

New linen, wet dog 🙄 Lucky he's cute 😍 #RockyTheWonderdog #DogsofBluesky

Trump will not deport migrants working for the companies of his friends and donors, and he will grant tariff exemptions for the companies of his friends and donors. Watch.

WTAF? This is disgraceful!

Haha, it was inevitable really 😅

LOL

Funny that Tony Abbott hasn't made a comment about Alan Jones yet. It's not like Tony's shy. In the past few months the media have happily reported his views on: - climate change - wokeness - Trump - Gaza / Israel - Rudd - Qantas - Oz history - migration - Islam - AUKUS - a republic - Covid

The exodus continues 🦋💙🦋 A joyous sight #Bluesky #Butterfly

One thing I look for in a social network is not to have the CEO shove his reactionary political views in my face every time I open the app. So I’m happy here.

It took me twelve years (!) to build up my audience on Twitter. It took 5 days to surpass the 50% point of my Twitter following on Bluesky. I’m hopeful that the overall growth on this site will negate the need to go on Twitter altogether. Sad to see what it devolved into, but thrilled to see it die.

100% This 👊💜🏳️‍⚧️

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

Pretty sure the rumours have been floating around for a long time, not to mention the public toilet incident was possibly before she was an adult. His endless supply of young attractive male PAs. I know women are good at ignoring red flags, but please, give me fkn strength 🙄

Spead my mums ashes on the weekend at the beautiful Mt F where she was born & grew up. Finally home & resting easy. I miss her 💔

Australia has a colonial history and its impact is still being felt by First Nations communities today. We can't shy away from these uncomfortable conversations, we need to uphold and support truth-telling.

I wish I was making this up, but the boss of the National Anti-Corruption Commission has given a speech where he admits that he acted with "apprehended bias" during the Robodebt non-investigation. As Bernard Keane and many others argue, Brereton has to resign www.crikey.com.au/2024/11/18/p...

Yes & yes again. go.bsky.app/8JBjFxH

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...” ...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

Australia, do you not understand what is coming? It's easy to dismiss Queensland as some far flung place but we are an early warning system. #auspol

It's the company you keep 😳

JPL was a JW back in the day so his christofash ways hasn’t deserted him. Btw - JWs were one of the main religions exposed in the RC for child abuse

Anyone who thinks the current #LiberalParty #LNP across the country is not being infiltrated by the RW christian lobby has their heads in the sand. They will continue to gain numbers & push their agenda wherever possible. What's next? Abortion rights? #auspol #Qpol
