Yesterday, the war parties teamed up to shut the door on Iranians trying to flee a war they endorse and support.
We know that there are Labor MPs who oppose this war and Australia's involvement. It's time they spoke up.
Silence is complicity.
Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly
Seems about right considering how the war effort is going. (Also, including his age in that headline got a laugh out of me). www.thedailybeast.com/trump-79-adm...
Today we see the future of Aukus. Doing whatever America does. #aukus #auspol
The Australian government is currently expanding partnerships with Palantir.

“’Maintaining our ability to be American’ by ensuring that bitches never have shit.”
Palantir CEO promises that his technology will reduce educated women's economic and political power newrepublic.com/post/207693/...

International obligations required Australia to have oil reserves of 90 days - we have less than 1/2 that.
Albanese once promised our own fleet of tankers. We rely on Asian-Pacific tankers to bring in oil.

One Rule for Some. Another for the Rest of Us.
This week an eighteen-year-old was arrested by fifteen police officers in Brisbane for wearing a singlet bearing six words.
The architects of Robodebt have faced no charges. Not one. Not ever.

“AUKUS represents the worst defence decision since we relied on Britain to protect us in World War II”
The agreement was signed in secret without any Parliamentary scrutiny. Australians deserve the truth.
#AUKUS is already fucking us #Auspol
Thanks Phantom Rooster! Hope this link works as the public deserve transparency on AUKUS.

“Breathtaking nonsense” is just one of Rick Morton’s thoughts on the NACC’s long-awaited robodebt report, which dismissed corruption allegations against Scott Morrison as well as three others, and in doing so flatly rejected the royal commission’s findings.
OMG Jim. How fucking #OnMessage can you be? Sheesh. #Auspol.
Here's David Rayfield.
"For Albanese, joining a global atrocity is far less “difficult” than Grace Tame"

Yet another excellent reason to cancel the abominable deal
Thank you Australia Institute for continue to articulate the absurdity of our Government’s dogged and stubborn position on AUKUS and the shocking implications of sleepwalking into shameful complicity
"The AUKUS submarine deal makes Australian participation in American wars the default position."
@emmashortis.bsky.social & @ebonybennett.bsky.social on the US-Israel war on Iran & the risks of AUKUS. #auspol

Yep.
@albomp.bsky.social: Now that we have sent the ADF to protect the UAE, what do you say about the UAE arresting tourists for photographing incoming Iranian missiles?

How is it that whenever there’s a crisis, the Australian government chooses precisely the wrong answer? . #Auspol.

Agree. Also defence against what? Seems our #government takes orders about everything from #US. We are still totally dependent on #US technologies. We have no effective #Climate #policy and are exporting more #gas than is needed or contracted. Who is trashing Australia? #auspol
One of the first things we need to do is develop a truly independent defence policy. Oz was kidding itself to think the Brits would help us in WWII (they didn't) and is kidding itself the US would now.
We definitely need to ditch AUKUS, and put more work into building allies closer to us.
Duh! The other 20% are in the Epstein files.
Maasdam: What we’re doing overseas — spending billions of dollars a day. In two weeks, we probably spent $25 billion. We had an Ayatollah Khomeini to start, and now we have a new Ayatollah Khomeini. And how is this making things in my district more affordable for people? It’s not
The Epstein files need to become the Epstein trials.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from Epstein files release.
