Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Let’s do it!

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

This Aust Govt travel advisory for the US needs to be updated. Given there is now a non-zero chance you could end up in a gulag somewhere, “exercise normal safety precautions” doesn’t cut it. www.smartraveller.gov.au/destinations...

Okay - The Bluesky algorithm has got me down pat. No need to read anything else...

Geez I’m spoiled. I got a knock on the door and it was the owner of the Ruby Blue Cafe here in Benalla. Jane @jane13barnes.bsky.social organised me a little Easter hamper for me,it’s loaded with gourmet tucker and orange juice. What a beautiful surprise for Easter.☺️☺️Ian

Dutton lying about a statement from the Indonesian govt is too stupid for words. Haven’t seen the Dunning–Kruger effect so perfectly displayed for many a year.

This week a senior LNP member repeated a Trump slogan - & has been seen in a MAGA hat Numerous Liberal Party members are preferencing an extreme christian party & One Nation But - there is little to no media focus on this. We are badly let down by the 4th estate #auspol

@neunion.bsky.social Covid is airborne! Anyone can get long covid, regardless of age or health status! It’s not mild, there are serious post infection risks like organ damage, even from so called ‘mild’ infections and these risks can last years!

...

Boycott these places!

Pay attention #auspol

Australia's nurses pay more tax than the gas industry. How is that fair? Our billboard in Melbourne ⤵️ #auspol

I love this for them Go fasch lose cash!

Canada picked a guy with a PhD in economics from Oxford. Mexico chose a woman with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering. The U.S. handed the job to a carnival-barking senior citizen, with multiple felonies and six bankruptcies under his belt.

Well I just learned something I didn’t know until today. So why does Paul Revere get all the credit? Misogyny?

A description of just the most salient acts of corruption that President Trump has undertaken in the first 6 weeks of his presidency (Warning: very alarming and very long). youtu.be/hycoCYenXls?...

Australia does not have a "special relationship" with the US, and no one told us we did - unlike the UK, who have been fed that line for 90 years. I've lived in the US, and I can tell you, most Americans think Australia is in Europe and hosted the Winter Olympics a few times.

Confirmation from the administration that they made it up using voodoo economics. Apart from the sheer stupidity, the idea that having a trade surplus with the US can only be the result of cheating betrays a worldview that is simply delusional. These people are insane.

“The FDA as we’ve known it is finished, with most of the leaders with institutional knowledge and a deep understanding of product development and safety no longer employed.” - Former US Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf.
