Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.” That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social. “There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.

Israelis cannot BEAR the truth. When a returned Israeli praised Hamas's treatment of him during his time in Gaza, he was viciously trolled and dubbed 'mentally ill'. No praise from Palestinians about Israel's torture dungeons ! www.presstv.co.uk/Detail/2025/...

Depressing when you realise that most of us living in "the West" are ruled by governments who would put Sophie Scholl in jail for protesting Zionist Israel's genocide of the Palestinians. And I can't imagine what Zionist Israel would do to Sophie. #auspol #StopIsrael #FreePalestine🍉

kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2025/02/26/i... problem is that there is no “appropriate action” that Ita Buttrose could take and she is clearly motivated by trying to reverse the damage done to her reputation during the car crash performance she gave on the witness box.

Learning nothing from Gaza, we ignore the West Bank & peddle Israeli tropes of "terrorists" & "prisoners" to justify. Instead, every conversation about Palestine should begin acknowledging their legal right to resist occupation. todays @irishexaminer.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

What is the ABC actually defending here? Clearly, not its ‘editorial integrity’. The Lattouf case has revealed it as an internally crippled, nobbled, and hopelessly politicised organisation of vacuous careerists who are clueless about its mission.

I kept speaking anyways. I won’t let these neo-fascists stop me from telling the truth. Right after winning the election, Trump created a meme coin to grift off of the American people yet they want to focus on cutting Medicaid for kids.
