After Scott Morrison and Joe Hockey, I’d been thinking that ABC couldn’t sink much lower in its wheeling out of ‘experts’ on US policy. But just when you think your expectations have reached rock bottom, David Speers and #abc730 exceed them. #auspol

“War itself is, of course, a form of madness. It’s hardly a civilized pursuit. It’s amazing how we spend so much time inventing devices to kill each other and so little time working on how to achieve peace.” – Walter Cronkite

Study reveals ABC racism & bias is worse than CNN & the BBC. The ABC is a publicly funded org which isn’t abiding by its own ‘standards’ ‘The ABC shapes the genocide narrative around the perspective of its perpetrators’ #shame #auspol www.deepcutnews.com/p/exclusive-...

But, but Kamala (woman) and Biden (old) I do not recall ever in my long life, a political leader so immersed in such filth as 🍊Every day & in every way he is disgusting. #Auspol No #AUKUS

When the #robodebt royal commission report was handed down, imagine if victims and their families had been told: - the #NACC would whitewash the whole episode - NO government minister would be held to account - the key criminal - Scott Morrison - would receive the nation's highest honour. #auspol

Australia has an opportunity to get out of AUKUS. We should take it. We ask the Albanese Government to prioritise Australia's interests and security, and to join the UK and the US Governments in undertaking an independent parliamentary inquiry into AUKUS. ✍️ Add your name: theaus.in/AUKUS_inquiry

"AUKUS was not subject to any serious parliamentary or democratic scrutiny." Cheers to Raf Epstein for chatting with Dr Emma Shortis about her new Vantage Point essay, 'After America: Australia and the new world order' @emmashortis.bsky.social #auspol

Watsonville, CA, showing up for #NoKings! Watsonville is one of California’s central communities of farm workers and immigrants, and has recently experienced ICE agents out in the streets and fields. These young women are dancing while holding pictures of their immigrant loved ones.

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

The United States spends billions of dollars on ICE detention centers each year — most of which are privately owned. We are making it profitable to illegally and unconstitutionally detain immigrants who have been convicted of no crimes and are just waiting for hearings.

The world's top court warned of genocide in Gaza. Over 800 British lawyers are warning of Genocide. Every Government is complicit unless they do all they can to stop this. Impose widespread sanctions on Israel - on trade, politicians and its economy - and stop all arms sales.

An Aust journalist is shot whilst reporting on protests in the US, crickets from our PM and FM. But then it's been 28yrs since the RC into Indigenous Deaths in Custody and they have done FA with the recommendations @davemilbo.bsky.social @instanterudite.bsky.social @ronnisalt.bsky.social

Even that perennial favourite value "rule of law" is now a complete joke. Trump and Netanyahu are doing all they can to undermine it. And here, a former PM responsible for state-inflicted terror and suicides through the illegal #robodebt scheme faces ZERO accountability. And instead gets a gong.
