Ukraine war briefing: Calls grow to spend all of Russia’s frozen billions on Ukrainian defence

When did nuance in #auspol debate start being called weak? When did a competent Gov improving many issues become a ‘dud’, because they didn’t fix everything for all in 3years? When did compromise in the hope to be allowed to do more next time become worse than doing nothing?

Opinion | Echoing Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Peter Dutton is advocating the racist Great Replacement Theory, @keanebernard.bsky.social writes.

This is fvkked up beyond all reason. How is ANY American okay with this? It’s child abuse. It’s torture. It’s not okay, and may any person that thinks this is cool burn in eternal damnation. Goddamn Republicans🤬 #ProudBlue www.thedailybeast.com/watch-immigr...

Oh… oh n… oh no…

He didn't mention Werewolves at least.

The Thug… no policies, just fear and loathing.

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

I recall inflation over 2% being the most important issue in American history, but now that consumers expect 4.3% inflation over the next year (highest since Nov 2023) and the bond market expects 2.57% inflation over 5 years (highest since Mar 2023), it's no biggie.

1/2 The man is a dangerous idiot. Will any media organisation, other then independent or retired journalists ect, detail the multiple failures of all main stream media, with examples?

Just a reminder that “forcible transfer” of a civilian population is a crime against humanity www.law.cornell.edu/wex/forcible....

Good Gov makes decisions that help most, when possible makes decisions that help minorities, or fixes long term issues. The current Labor Gov tried to help the most, has failed to fix some promised issues but has been competent. The voice failure hurt their agenda. Better them than the LNP.

Your mind likely wandered less than his .

Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the National Anthem to protest racial inequality and police brutality. Half the nation lost their shit. Elon Musk made a Nazi salute while stating Germans shouldn't feel guilty about past crimes. That same half the nation went radio silent You get it.

Hey Dems, Imagine just how much the GOP would be freaking the fuck out if Obama or Biden had allowed Soros access to all treasury payment and taxpayer data. Because they’d be right to freak the fuck out. So, freak the fuck out. Now would be good. XOXO Timmer

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

"Before network and retail charges, if you just used clean energy, it would cost an average Australian family $800 a year. Coal would cost $1300 a year, and nuclear power $1500 a year. How many reports do we need that tell us the same thing?" www.smh.com.au/national/nsw... #auspol

I think I speak for every Australian when I acknowledge collective gratitude for our professional firefighters and the professionally-trained volunteer firefighters who risk so much to keep us all safe. Thank you. #auspol

Trump ousts at least 15 independent inspectors general in late-night purge The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire a Senate-confirmed inspector general. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Nothing to see here, folks. #FFS
