This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

You've justified, defended & been complicit in A FULL-SCALE GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE for around 29mths now, @australianlabor.bsky.social, but suddenly Labor MPs are "quietly alarmed"β€”what, their electorates are waking up that thanks to you, "Australia is at war with Iran"? Cry us a river to the sea.

As a country we have made a lot of mistakes in foreign wars over the last 2+ centuries. But I’m not sure we have ever looked as feckless, foolish, incompetent and ridiculous at the leadership level than right now.

There is a difference between saying I feel for the Iranian people are going through and still I disagree with this war not bc I don’t want liberation of Iranians but bc I fear we don’t have measured leaders and have my concerns given the U.S.’s past history in foreign nations

β€˜They pushed so many lies about recycling’: the fight to stop big oil pumping billions more into plastics Plastic production has doubled over the last 20 years – and will likely double again. For author Beth Gardiner, metal water bottles and canvas tote bags are not the solution. So what is?

Trying to use less plastic?

Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more.

β€œI think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,” said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. β€œIt was such a shock."

Trump answers to Netanyahu and Putin. Putin probably yanked the puppet strings and told him to stop the war.

Difficult times call for cooperation and dialogue. But our voting system keeps giving total power to parties that only a fraction of voters support.

On 30% of the vote, one party could win full control of our economy, health, foreign policy and defence.

We can't take that risk.

10 yrs ago President Obama negotiated JCPOA, Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action w/ Iran & it's Nuclear Program.
Wistfully, America & Iran could have become cooperative nations in those 10 yrs.

then amateur politician trump nixed JCPOA & today has brought death & destruction to the Mideast.

I very frustratingly missed the forsters tern in Poole Park this afternoon. Some other birds showed themselves very well. It’s only after looking at the photo that I’ve noticed the merganser appears to have fishing line caught in its bill. #Birds #DorsetBirds #WildlifePhotography #UKWildlife

My lord all we’ve heard from hawks over the last 20 years was there are no Iranian pragmatists so diplomacy is futile. Now these chucklenuts decided the pragmatists were there all along we just have to murder their leader & bomb them to oblivion so they will emerge from the rubble.

House Oversight Committee to depose Epstein's longtime accountant The House Oversight Committee is set to depose Jeffrey Epstein's longtime accountant on Wednesday.

Today, Richard Kahn, Jeffrey Epstein’s accountant, will appear before our Committee for a deposition. Kahn was a central facilitator of Epstein’s ability to exploit girls and women. We will leave no stone unturned as we seek answers.

If Trump takes more sanctions off Russia, he is never putting them back on.

This might be exactly what he has been waiting to do all along.

He consistently sides with Russia over allies.

The man is a real traitor
