What is Advance and what does it stand for? Right-wing political group Advance is in the headlines. What is it and what does it stand for?

I wasn't really paying attention to these people, but upon reading your post and doing a little digging, this is quite alarming. 😬

Advance is blatantly creating and fermenting racist hatred towards migrants to help the Liberal Party win voters. This is happening out in the open for everyone to see and it’s just treated as an entirely legitimate political strategy - normalised and mainstreamed. I’m so sick of this crap.

Say it plain: This is a terrible jobs report.

The U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs in February, nearly double the expected loss of 50,000. It’s the third payroll decline in the past five months.

πŸ“ŒNote: This is one of the worst monthly payroll drops since Covid.

Last year, 50 Australians were serving on US attack submarines, and that number was on the rise.

The Albanese Government must answer whether Australian troops were used in this attack.

If we don't want to be involved in this war, withdraw Australian troops.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social if you think that Australia should have one iota of involvement in the US’s β€˜Epstein war on Iran to distract everyone from the fact he raped little children’, you need to think again.

Australians WILL NOT tolerate even the sniff of us supporting Trump’s Epstein distraction.

Australia 'did not participate' in Operation Epic Fury in Iran Foreign Minister Penny Wong has confirmed Australia was not involved in the major Israeli-United States operation in Iran that has reportedly decapitated its leadership.

Straight-out lies from Albanese, Wong and the ALP. Data from US bases in Australia undoubtedly contributed to the illegal US-Israeli bombing of Iran.

They must bear responsibility for that bombing, including the slaughter of 100 innocent girls in southern Iran when a primary school was targeted.

On Rare Disease Day, it’s worth considering the destruction of US medical research by the Trump administration, and the need for our own govt to step up and show leadership by supporting the NHMRC and CSIRO, and by spending the money put aside for that purpose in the Medical Research Future Fund.

Why are we spending $130 million on a Royal Commission into antisemitism, but nothing to tackle Islamophobia or any other form of racism? Do some lives matter more than others? #auspol

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.
