The difference is that this time Australia is sending aid to the UAE to assist in its defence & not direct assistance to the USA

Thankfully he's gone although I don't expect his replacement will be any better, more likely they'll be worse. πŸ™„

That sounds good in theory however that means that both Labor & the Coalition are disqualified. So in an election between the Greens & PHON I'm not sure which would actually be elected by the majority of Australians or the outcome on other matters would be any better.

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph β€” but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

This is why I don't want a vigil around my death bed.
My brother died last year from cancer & it took him 3 days to pass with him oblivious of those around him.
My motto is say what you need now because it can be too late if you wait.

$1.5T defense budget
$170B on ICE & Border Patrol
$100B on tax cuts for the 1%
$20B from Treasury for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$300M on Kristi Noem's jets
$100M+ for Trump to golf
$75k+ for Kash Patel's Olympic trip

And now $50B in emergency funding for war in Iran?

Priorities.

These two seem to be monsters & get resurrected in another form(at) whenever they're given the bullet.
Hopefully this time it was a silver bullet & they've been put out of our misery.

If people want to believe in something that's their option however don't force it on others or think it justifies your actions.

In 2025, Meta paid an effective federal tax rate of 3.5% β€” its lowest on record.

Meanwhile, Meta is pumping $65 million into elections this year to boost AI friendly candidates.

Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax, it's corrosive to democracy.

Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.
