ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Bondi again in Abrego Garcia press conference added all these scurrilous details, not in the indictment. Positively outrageous.

People in Los Angeles rising up against ICE.

For the gazillionth time, he is not the "leader of the free world". He's not even the leader of a free country.

This can not be allowed to move forward.

ā€œThis is what 1.5C above preindustrial [avg temp] means. Things will get a lot worse before it gets better & that’s what makes me sad.ā€ You should be angry, not sad. And thank goodness the @albomp.bsky.social gov extended the Woodside oil/gas project to 2070 hey. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Woeful ā€¼ļø And in the week that the 632nd Ukrainian šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦ child was killed by Russian šŸ‡·šŸ‡ŗ bombs. Then all the life altering injuries Ā£200 BILLION šŸ‡·šŸ‡ŗ fossil fuel exports have been shipped using UK-based maritime services since the start of the šŸ‡·šŸ‡ŗ invasion morningcall.substack.com/p/morning-ca...

Hey Albo … Man up MF … Israel is a genocidal terrorist state led by a fugitive war criminal. Condemn Israel, sanction, boycott and dismiss the ambassador of that disgraceful mass murdering Nation. #auspol #Gaza #Genocide @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social

U.S. Caught Off Guardā€: France’s New Nuclear Submarine With 620-Mile Missiles Triggers Panic Inside Pentagon War Rooms and I bet in a few #AUKUS #Auspol ones too.

I don’t agree with every word, but absolutely agree with the gist. Very good by Josh Szeps www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

Hard-hitting @lisacox.bsky.social report featuring exasperated straight-talkers✊ Peter Dunn, fmr commissioner of emergency services for the ACT is furious abt North West Shelf Extension: Albanese government is ā€œtrashing its integrityā€ and has ā€œlost their licence to lead, days after the electionā€

In an angry statement, Pacific Elders warn Australia that approving more fossil fuel projects ā€œcompromises the security of our Pacific communities and grossly undermines the spirit of partnership and trust in our Pacific family.ā€ pacificelders.org/statement/au...

These two psychos have access to all your personal data, by the way.

You can do quite a bit with $2.2bn. Start with raising the rate of social security payments above the poverty line ferinstance. Start funding public hospitals properly. Now let me see…

Francesca Albanese— "I call it genocide b/c IT IS genocide. Defined by intent, not by method or means. Visible without magnification—if we look with context, at the victims: what they share is being part of a group, as such. B/c of it, they get killed, tortured, maimed, starved, raped, massacred."

It's anti-Semitic to say I shouldn't unload machine guns at starving people in cages. It's anti-Semitic to suggest these camps, filled with death, are Death Camps. And it's certainly anti-Semitic to say I shouldn't missile Greta Thunberg and a boat full of medicine. Get the special envoy on the case

That thing that’s not happening…here it is again. We are blithely destroying our own home. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Ross Gittins : Just because Albo looked better than the scary Peter Dutton doesn’t mean voters opted for a do-nothing government. www.smh.com.au/business/the...

Disintegrate. My @smh cartoon.

The @australia.theguardian.com continuing its proud tradition of referring to Israel's genocide of the people of Palestine as a "war" and casting doubt ("say sources" "officials say") on reports out of Gaza that don't arrive bearing an 'Israeli Government Approved' stamp. #FuckIsrael #FreePalestine

The big swerve: Climate Change Minister @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social says Woodside’s NW gas plant is obliged to reduce ā€˜on site’ emissions under our safeguards pathway (net zero 2050). Operative word here is ā€˜on site’. This exonerates Woodside for emissions created by its export clients Japan, SKorea.

I note "CHINA! CHINA! CHINA!" is making headline news once again in Australia thanks to Labor's Richard Marles. Here's your regular reality check, in case you need one. #auspol
