Bernice King has it absolutely right. We are facing a moral crisis in this country. And we must all act together to end it.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.
nursesonja • 7h & Threads Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control. This is about total control. O240 Q5 G34 → 21
The nurses are pissed
Waste of time. Not going to happen cos nobody has the backbone. All talk talk talk.
"'History’s eyes are on the Supreme Court,' she said.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.
And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam.
And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.
Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.
Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 73 out of the last 85 days.
Epstein Shutdown.
Release the Files!
One mother and calf trapped for five days ... in distress all this time. FOUR whales now caught in these filthy nets and no way to free them.
Drowning!
Heartbreaking 🥵
BAN shark nets!!!!

Over 300,000 people marched across the Sydney Harbour Bridge calling for an end to Israel's genocide of the Palestinians & for participants to be held accountable for crimes against humanity.
FYI, @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social, it's aka SOCIAL COHESION.
“actually a thing” What on earth does that mean? How about taking the lead instead of talking, watching, hand wringing and the like. You know, being a leader!
List of the names of the 231 Palestinian, 3 Lebanese and 2 Israeli journalists killed covering Israel's genocide of Gaza since 7 Oct 2023
Of course, journalists in LA should not be targeted by police with rubber bullets. But let's not ignore the real issue of journalist safety
Of course it’s horrific. But why is he ignoring the fact that 200+ journalists have been shot with REAL bullets in Gaza?!?!
I don’t really do political posts, but thought someone might want to run with this…

Drawing an analogy to the riddle of a man rowing a fox, a chicken, and a sack of corn across a river, we argue that Albanese must navigate a delicate balance to maintain party unity while delivering on ambitious election promises.

Fear has a way of being contagious.
But courage is also contagious.
Depressing how far we have come from bipartisan support for 0.5% target.

At the end of three years of Labor Government, foreign aid/ODA is at just 0.18% of GDP - a far cry from the 0.45% we achieved in the 1970s.
In 2018, @australiainstitute.org.au warned that under Julie Bishop we had "the least generous levels of aid ever" ... when it was ~20% higher than today.
There were 69 journalists killed in all of WW2. 63 in Vietnam. The Israelis have killed more than 200 in Gaza. Deliberate murder to silence reporting.
Jacinta Price has had to repay expenses she improperly claimed from the taxpayer 13 TIMES!!! And she is under investigation for a 14th breach! And Dutton has appointed her in charge of reducing govt waste! The incompetent corrupt Coalition is just trolling Australian voters now. #auspol #AusVotes25
We also used to fly paper planes and throw around apples. Goofy adolescent shit. It was always amusing to push someone's desk until the teacher barked, "What are you doing back there?" I won't say I recommend Detention Hall, but I met a lot of cool people there.
Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.
He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.
Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.
Incredible to see, congrats & thanks to all who made this happen - also bloody brave of them in the current environment!!
Sad and enraging it has to be done because MSM can no longer report or acknowledge basic realities themselves. #Auspol
Doesn’t matter what Trump supports as there is not a chance that we’ll ever receive even one of those Virginia class subs nor any AUKUS class
Well, Trump’s back playing world leader with all the finesse of a bull in a china shop, while Putin smirks and Ukraine burns. It’s not ‘diplomacy’, it’s a global pissing contest with dangerously high stakes and uncontrollable egos.
Headline: Trump falsely claims Ukraine started war with Russia
Finally, a headline which points out that Trump is LYING, rather than just quoting him and burying the fact-check in the fifth paragraph! More of this please. Trump lies CONSTANTLY and for a decade, the media have failed to characterise it as a problem.
