If the NSW government has any interest in maintaining faith with its own public, it will ask the DPP to investigate police actions on Monday night without NSW Police involvement, with a view to prosecuting the cops who committed assaults. Or it can carry on blaming the victims; Minns' choice.

The US military operation to oust Venezuela's president has sparked baseless claims about a link between the Latin American country and Australian elections. www.aap.com.au/factcheck/no...

Quite so…

When this blows over I might have to share some of the emails I’ve received over the days which really make me wonder why I am the one accused of hatred. There is deep unresolved trauma being spewed by some of these people and we cannot consent to living according to their warped reality.

The PBS is a national treasure. Australia Institute research shows the prices Australians would pay if Trump had his way and dismantled our Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme.🤯 #auspol

This Venezuela adventure is Trump’s version of “MeToo”, isn’t it?
