Opinion | Adam Bandt has some serious questions to answer, but Labor is kidding itself if it chooses to believe progressive voters wholly disapproved of the Greens’ performance, writes Rachel Withers.

I don’t know what’s more shameful, disgraced Former Home Affairs Sec Mike Pezzullo using ANZAC Day to claim that War is on the horizon, or Sky News inviting this sacked lunatic on to speak, who breached the code of conduct 14 times & who’s falsely made the same war claims before

Just to reassure people, Peter Dutton has as much chance of leading the Liberal coalition to victory as I have of becoming the Pope He's spent the past 3 years grabbing headlines without putting in the work on substance & policies and now it's coming home to bite him A guaranteed failure of a man

This was a gouge by Donald Trump and his billionaires on the people of the USA, and the USA itself. The billionaire Media will desperately try to spin a win, but everybody lost in this trade war. Except of course Donald Trump and his billionaire buddies.

When people ask me which politicians - regardless of whether I agreed with their position or not - I found to be upfront, capable & as true to their ideals as Parliament’s party system allows them to be, Petro Georgiou is always one who springs to mind #auspol neoskosmos.com/en/2025/04/0...

Check the smirk on the war criminal Netanyahu. He can hardly believe his luck. The lunatic in the White House has given him all he ever wanted and more.

Thank you to Matthew Knott from The Age for calling it ethnic cleansing. He will now be branded as antisemitic by Zionists, but he is 100% factually correct. #auspol www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

On this day 56 years ago (Feb 6, 1969) an Australian scientist warned politicians that carbon dioxide buildup would lead to health and climatic problems in 50 yrs "I think the whole situation is one which needs very desperate and immediate action." allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/05/f...

Have often wondered how @murpharoo.bsky.social lives with what she sees. I actually thought that we might see some positive changes after she went there, but alas, the opposite if anything.

“[They had] years in exile to try … to come up with a coherent Labour Right plan for Britain. “And guess what: they came up with nothing. So they lied to get elected, by signing up to left-wing policies they didn’t really believe in, then abandoned them by attrition in favour of… nothing.” 🔥

"the war on diversity & inclusion is only the latest front in a longer war of resentment and anger on the part of white males toward their perceived loss of privilege." The real villain is free market economics; which Dutton has spent most of his life championing. www.crikey.com.au/2025/01/31/w...

You’re going to see a lot of your favourites jump on the Trump et al bandwagon this time around in the name of ‘unity’ and ‘bringing people together’. Make no mistake - it’s not unity, it’s capitulation

Post WWI Germany, many political parties had their own armies, called Freicorps. The freicorps engaged in open battles in the streets and assassinated political opponents. Trump has just pardoned his freicorps. Nothing good is about to happen in America.

Trump has re-withdrawn from the Paris climate agreement. Musk is doing fascist salutes on stage. The Republican Party is frothing about rounding up immigrants and expanding American empire. The oligarchy is swallowing what's left of the social safety net. Millions are cheering all of this. We fukd.

I doubt even Shakespeare could have envisioned a tragicomedy like Trump, his retinue of billionaire spivs, crooks and swindlers, his awful family and a clutch of dispossessed trailer trash. It’s showtime! www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

After 18 months of operation and a cost of $140 million to Australians, the staggeringly incompetent NACC has concluded its top 3 major corruption investigations, and guess what? It has found no corruption. The #NACC is a failure and a national embarrassment. 👇🏽 theklaxon.com.au/nacc-finds-n...

Just released to me under #FOI is a never-before-seen chapter of the Official History of Australian Operations in Timor that was secretly expunged from the history. It tells uncomfortable truths and confirms Howard Govt lies and public deceit. Full story on Michael West Media soon. #auspol

🚨The deeply embattled National Anti-Corruption Commission has completed its first investigations - and in all 3 cases says no corruption found. Refuses to say if Angus Taylor's "watergate" was one - despite 2 of 3 relating to "procurement". #watergate theklaxon.com.au/5hp4
