‘Clerical Error’ Nazi rally That’s a new one 😳

Well, that certainly cleared that up.

Yes - this sums up Trump very neatly. Complete devoid of any empathy - or even understanding - for the suffering of others.

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."

The sandwich guy has been acquitted. When the jury did not return a quick verdict, it looked like he might be toast. Turns out they needed to chew on it some more. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

In New York, Zohran Mamdani represents generational change, and a voice for Millennials, Gen Z, progressives, and the working poor. In Australia, we’re stuck with deeply institutionalised career party apparatchiks who are little more than a voice for donors and narrow party ideology. #auspol

Tax payer funded Pauline Hanson skips parliament to speak at MAGA conference at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. One Nation leader also seen with her puppet master Gina Rinehart and surprise SURPRISE all her talking points aligned with Rinehart. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... #auspol #abc730

Meteorologists have warned that the typhoon has regained strength as it barrels towards Vietnam's central regions.

The problem.

BREAKING: The Philippines declares a state of emergency after Typhoon Kalmaegi leaves at least 114 dead and hundreds missing in central provinces.

The CPSU have also done bugger-all work on this for years other than to say the CES should come back. Get serious and involve yourselves please.

Still a chance to return to 1.5C climate goal, researchers say

Oh man…yesterday was a great day. youtube.com/shorts/h1Vob...

‘With the Coalition in disarray and a third term almost guaranteed, Labor is proposing to weaken environment laws even further, and that is not the Greens or Coalition’s fault.’ - Richard Denniss, co-Chief Executive Officer @richarddenniss.bsky.social #auspol

📚 REVIEW: At the end of World War II, many Nazi war criminals fled to Australia. A new book tells the stories of the investigators who tried to bring them to justice. 👉 theconversation.com/a-histo...

Kath and Jenny lost their sons following illegal robodebts, the ongoing secrecy of the NACC is compounding their trauma. They deserve answers and accountability.

"Big-hearted" President Trump did what any leader would do during a food crisis: throw a party!

In the gilded halls of Lydia’s throne, Where gold flowed like rivers untamed, Sat Croesus, the king on his pile of stone, Enthroned in his vanity, richly proclaimed. “Oh Solon, wise sage from the Attic shore, Gaze upon my treasures, my opulent hoard! blakandblack.com/2025/11/06/r...

“We won because we insisted that no longer would politics be something that is done to us. Now it is something that we do.”

Today, leading medical researchers from across the nation are stepping into Parliament, joining my call for the government to release the funds being withheld from the Medical Research Future Fund. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

This new report on digital inclusion shows 1 in 5 Australians are digitally excluded, it's 40% for First Nations people, 45% for public housing residents, 67% for older Australians. As services move online, digital exclusion = exclusion from healthcare, education & opportunity.

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

Federal Labor went to the last election with a promise to fix our broken nature laws. After years of delays, they have introduced new laws to Parliament. But they’re not good enough & will fail to protect nature. The laws must be strengthened. www.foe.org.au/strong_natur...

Disappointed by the govt’s rushed push to pass a 1,500-page environment bill without proper scrutiny or consultation. This is a key chance to protect nature & embed climate accountability—but the bill falls short. View my full speech here: www.zalisteggall.com.au/speaks_on_th... #EPBC #Auspol

Yara Youssef Abu Kweik, 16, is processing her emotions by painting scenes of suffering from her daily life.

"The collective wealth of the top 10 US billionaires has soared by $698bn in the past year, according to a new report from Oxfam America published on Monday on the growing wealth divide."

Robodebt was a mass deception based on a cruel bet: that people on income support would simply give up and pay debts they didn't owe. Today I tabled a petition from Kath Madgwick and Jenny Miller calling for those responsible to finally be held accountable.

Enticing young people to read will require a concerted effort by parents, carers, teachers and public intellectuals to promote reading for enjoyment.

Do the same here @albomp.bsky.social #auspol

Condé Nast’s folding of Teen Vogue into Vogue is “clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most," Condé United, @nyguild.bsky.social say. Change throttles "staff diversity and [mutes] the magazine’s progressive political bent."

I will never understand why the Australian media, especially the ABC, keep calling the new mayor of New York a radical leftist whilst referring to the far right weirdos in both America and Australia as merely “conservatives’.

The UK will not invest in a Brazilian fund meant to protect global rainforests, throwing doubt on Brazil's goal of raising at least $10 billion by next year.

Labor is spooked that the #AUKUS plan won't stack up to Senate scrutiny. So they join with the Coalition to keep the Australian ppl in the dark.🤬 What could they be afraid of? #auspol

In 2025 if you can’t even tell the Australian people that you don’t wish to “double down on the use of coal” - you may as well also give up on any ambition you have to be in government. This is a disastrous interview by Dan Tehan. Weak. Confused. Pathetic. #abc730

This shows just how stupid, shortsighted, captured and corrupt Australia's political class are, they have torched our potential collective prosperity. Will they do the same with a rare and precious minerals boom? www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-) he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

2 statewide races in GA, 3 PA state Supreme Court races, Virginia Governor, New Jersey Governor, California redistricting. Dems winning HUGE everywhere. The resistance is alive & well. Tonight is a TOTAL repudiation of that cruel, corrupt, lawless madman in the White House & his cowardly enablers.

I expect the DNC establishment and New York City’s wealthy elites will soon be lining up to kiss the ring

Just 35 days to the 10 December social media ban deadline and Labor announces 2 more platforms being roped in - they’re making it up on the fly - 2.5 million young people are being disrespected and everyone’s privacy treated like a joke

UN calls for all Gaza crossings to be opened to allow unimpeded deliveries of food and other humanitarian aid.

By 'calamity' they of course mean, a loss of grift. Their care factor for the environment is net zero but the idea of getting a 'real job' among the great unwashed is the reason for their sudden whiplash. #SeeTheirSalaryHitNetZero #auspol

These two really are contenders for scum of the earth. #auspol

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans. Nero would be proud.

Praise for Dick Cheney is not just nauseating; it's appalling. This man was a mass murderer. He lied to the American people. He killed millions of people. He is one of the worst products of the imperial United States. And Democrats are eulogizing him. Absolutely disgusting.

Aust universities will cry poor while stealing millions of dollars from precariously employed workers and throwing money at the mass murder industry. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

There is a distinct possibility that some people are too stupid to participate in a democracy

A neo-con, a protofascist, a corporate banshee, the architect of an illegal war of aggression that killed hundreds of thousands of innocents and changed the Middle East for the worse, forever. A hellbound ghoul worthy of no fine words or commiseration.
