While providing (rightly) seven #Iranian women footballers asylum and joining an illegal war, the Labor Government today is passing a Trump like entry ban to block Iranians from entering Australia for the next 6 months. Despicable and morally bankrupt in its hypocrisy and lack of decency and values.

Many things are awful in the world right now, but there are many other things at the other end of the scale to help us deal, and this remains one of them.

Apparently, Kegseth hasn’t destroyed their ability to drop truth bombs.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social, don’t you love those shared values?

I’m impressed with your connections. I found 1 line and then gave up …no idea what the rest were.

War is always terrible; but this… this is beyond repugnant.

Kidnap people of colour
Bomb school girls
Kill their own citizens
Bomb half a dozen countries
Kidnap a President
Murder a sovereign leader
Protect child rapists
Cut foreign aid
Mass surveillance

And @albomp.bsky.social says we share values with these lunatics.

An election will show we don’t.

Me too. Without the Commonwealth scholarship which paid fees and a very basic living allowance, there’s no way anyone in my family could have afforded tertiary education. Yes, in the 70’s.

Better neighbourhood? More pleasant climate? Easier to get around? All of the above?

Have you seen the commercial that brought down Kristi Noem?

It’s even more bizarre than I expected.

When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.

WSJ: The action was bold…

Wrong- this was a totally stupid action to distract from the #EpsteinFiles.

A siren in Tel Aviv means run to shelter. In Gaza, it means nothing-because there are no sirens. Just bombs. Just death. Just silence. That's the difference
