At some point we’ve got to stop seeing this as a series of oopsies moments and recognise that we are in institutional collapse. This system never “worked” the way we pretend it did. But at least there was some semblance of responsibility, of learning from mistakes It’s over. Time to build new ones

We broke significant national news this week and not a single mainstream media outlet wanted to cover it or follow up. It isn't surprising, but it is illustrative. Put simply, they're all owned and operated by Zionist billionaires. This is why indie media needs to exist.

fantastic reporting david! also worth noting - the chair of thales australia in 2023-2024 (when thales ramped up explosives production to fuel a genocide) was simultaneously the chancellor of sydney university

We've been quiet but busy. Last year we heard that a rich backer had bought the NSN a compound and set about finding where it was. This story we worked on with Sherryn Groch is the result of that investigation. www.theage.com.au/national/ric... (now unpaywalled)

Numerous Australians report being kidnapped, beaten, tortured and sexually assaulted by Israeli forces. The very least the Australian government could do is hold an inquiry. Albo? Wong? Where's the inquiry? Whose side are you on? #auspol

BHP tries to bury $11.4 billion wage theft scandal — and Michael West with it. Sworn evidence, a $2 shell company, and a disabled coal miner. Now they’re coming for the messenger. The chilling implication hangs over every independent outlet in the country. www.boganintel.com/p/bhp-tries-...

‘“I no longer consider Columbia University a safe place to work for Jews who dare to dissent from the political agenda of its most ardently pro-Israel and anti-Palestinian donors and trustees,” wrote Joseph Howley, a classics professor, in his claim.’ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Incredible reporting. AIPAC is not registered foreign agents yet they openly buy Congress members to support Israel. $44k luxurious trips to Israel, pouring in billions to help pro-Israel candidates by funneling money to them through AIPAC affiliates.

We keep hearing that PHON's growing support is a result of the cost of living crisis. That she's favoured by struggling Australians... Yet if you look at the latest RedBridge/Accent Research poll, then it's clear that those who own their home outright are her biggest supporters! #AusPol

AUKUS – AWKWARD Dianne Anderson, Bundoora

"what has become very clear, over the last couple of years, is that the UK and US* have deemed it conducive for the public good for Israel to be allowed to do whatever it likes, with no limits. What is morally bad, apparently, is talking about it." *same from Australian governments. #auspol

Trump on the midterms: “I don’t care.” Trump on cost of living: “I don’t care.” Trump on peace talks with Iran: “I don’t care.” Suddenly Trump has become a French existentialist. Andy Borowitz

I prefer a president that ought not be in prison for life.

"My phone was lighting up at around 8.30am from police officers totally pissed off at what Nigel Farage had said. He said all police officers are told to treat people differently based on their ethnicity. In fact, they are told the opposite." — Andy Hughes, crime reporter via @thenewsagents.co.uk

Go green, save lives. "... they cause harm at every stage of their life cycle. And yet Australia, one of the world’s largest fossil fuel exporters, continues to greenlight new coal and gas projects while its own medical professionals sound the alarm." #Auspol thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...
