Trump's program pre-written by the Heritage Foundation.

Both are fossil fuel funded members of the #AtlasNetwork of 550+ 'thinktanks' in 100 countries, around 200 of which are in the US and daily assail the public sphere with corporate propaganda.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Hey @senatorwong.bsky.social now we're getting involved in the war might it be a good time to check its legality? And have an opinion? And not get involved?? #auspol

Me in @crikey.com.au today:

Albanese leveraged high profile young women to build his reputation as a leader who "got it". Now those same women tell me they feel the trust is gone, they've lost their patience and believe the PM's mask has slipped.

I fully support asylum seekers. These sadly will be used as propaganda to support this illegal war and I hate it.

Many Australians seem to have forgotten that this nation has blindly followed the US into Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, for no other reason than sucking up to our 'ally'.

But now that we are faced with an illegal, pointless and catastrophic war in the Middle East...

I can guarantee neither @albomp.bsky.social, @senatorwong.bsky.social or any of them are listening to anyone other than the US and media voices. To them we are nothing more than those extremist social media thugs you read about. Until we take to the streets and protest.. #auspol

@albomp.bsky.social Where has this man of courage and conviction gone? You’re not only betraying us you’re betraying yourself. I know at 71 I value the same things I always valued. You appear to have totally lost your way. Or were you always a liar? #auspol australianpolitics.com/1996/05/06/a...

Our out of date, broken system can't cope. No new ideas because it's made to keep the rich rich and the rest of us poor. Oil prices surging, prices will rise which will appear as inflation. So we'll pay with higher interest rates. Our politicians too entrenched to change anything.. #auspol

Japan’s rise as an LNG trader driven by resale of cheap Australian gas, reigniting calls for gas export tax New analysis shows Japan is emerging as a major player in global gas trading, despite producing no liquefied natural gas of its own – and it’s all thanks to Australia.

I can’t believe I have to traverse the entire political spectrum all the way to the fucking GREENS to find ANYONE with the backbone to even THINK that maybe tethering ourselves to a rogue US is a bad thing. Both sides have sold out our country with #AUKUS

Chris Minns’ own security expert warned that tougher police powers after Bondi could β€˜increase radicalisation’ Alexandra Caples suggested expanded laws could β€˜damage trust between police and communities, undermining broader efforts to counter extremism’ * Follow our Australia news live blog for latest updates * Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast The New South Wales premier, Chris Mins, was warned before passing controversial laws restricting protests that heavy-handed policing might alienate communities and could even β€œincrease the risk of radicalisation”, documents reveal. The Labor leader was also advised further hate speech reforms conceived in the aftermath of the Bondi beach terror attack risked making the problem worse. Continue reading...

β€œExactly 1 yr ago today the She Matters Mural in Melbourne. It was erased once, vandalised many times & reorganised twice to fit all the women killed since IWD 25. Femicide should not be inevitable but we are so far from ending this epidemic. So space is left for the women to come.”

Electrifying all road freight between Sydney and Melbourne is a no brainer: The payback is less than 4 years The economic case for electric trucks in Australia has become outstandingly clear over the past couple of years, and the payback period is just two to four years.

Makes sense for Australia in so many ways #auspol

β€œBattery powered trucks that can carry 60 tonnes already exist, and are purpose designed with 450 km plus of range and are capable of being recharged in an hour. They are better than diesel trucks in every way”

TWID: "Americans didn’t vote for Trump’s illegal war with Iran – nor do they support it today. Their representatives in Congress didn’t authorize it. But that doesn’t matter to a man who cares about no one but himself..."

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

The woman who told FBI agents that Trump sexually assaulted her when she was as young as 13 recalled that she and her mother received death threats afterward, with callers saying β€œwe know where you’re at, you need to keep your mouth shut."

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.
