JUNETEENTH in Harlem. This is what America is about. Perhaps the most American holiday of all, Juneteenth honors the very best of what this country can be. It’s a celebration of the courage to fight for freedom, even when the cost is steep. It’s sad that the president gets angry over this

Sad to see a team that last had glories in the 90s and really should just relocate to Tasmania being belted so badly. Poor Carlton. #AFL

THIS IS A POLICE STATE: Adrian Andrew Martinez. Say his full name. He defended someone from ICE harassment. So CBP jumped him like a gang in a public lot. No lawyer. No phone call. No fucking trace. They kidnapped a U.S. citizen. Keep filming. This system needs witnesses.

What if Labour was never THAT unpopular, but one survey pretended it was. Followed by a media narrative that made it so. And then it was so? That is what happened. Rationally. Labour have done more in 11 months, than the Tories did in 11 years. And nothing horrendous.

“Ranked choice” voting is what Australians call “preferential voting” and it’s been a part of our electoral system since 1918. If anyone needs a very basic explainer of how it works, this will do. Also, we have one of the most representative democracies on earth, yay to us! #auspol

In the mid '70s a young Perth photographer was transfixed by new wave and punk music and began taking photos at gigs. Now he's published a book that captures that time — and some now-familiar faces.

Trump's new focus on "remigration"—an idea borrowed from the European ultra-right that means forcing non-white people, even legal citizens, out of the country—portends something sinister. I discuss with @gregsargent.bsky.social on the Daily Blast podcast: newrepublic.com/article/1968...

The Victorian opposition is now a religious, cooker debating club masquerading as a centre-right political party. If journalists were to ask them questions (you know, do their job) about abortion, LGBT+ rights, assisted dying etc. they’d crumble like a deck of cards.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
