NEW: When the Trump Admin abruptly cancelled almost all USAID programs, it also refused to pay $2bln the U.S. govt owes for work that’s been done. One of the cut-off programs in Syria couldn’t afford security and was robbed by masked men. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Spineless Trump sycophant and Putin apologist Marco Rubio terminated U.S. support for restoring Ukraine's energy grid moments after President Zelenskyy was kicked out of the White House. Shameless. Despicable. Cowardly.

You can’t waste your vote in Australia, thanks to the genius of preferential voting. It’s what helps set our voting system apart from the US and the UK. @richarddenniss.bsky.social explains how it works. 👇

In Australia our voting system is so great that, unlike in the USA or UK you can never ’waste your vote’…if your first choice (preference) doesn’t do well enough to win your vote gets transferred, at full value, to your second choice etc…check out my little explainer

👇 ICC & cricket world’s shame. ICC can’t change internal Afghan politics, within ICC power to action their own rules & fund an Afghan Women’s Cricket team in exile in Aus & stop insultingly using excuse that must use all funding to support men’s team playing in safe venues

For Peter Dutton, the public service is a 'magic pudding' to be cynically raided at election time, rather than an essential support system that millions of Australian veterans, pensioners, families and students rely on every day. #election2025 #auspol

Thank you Canada. Canada has announced that it will allocate $5 billion in frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine. The move aligns with broader efforts by Western nations to use confiscated Russian assets to aid Ukraine’s defense, reconstruction, and economic stability. 💙

On her show just now, Rachel Maddow said of Joy Reid's show being cancelled: "I think it is a bad mistake to let her walk out the door." She adds it is "unnerving" to see the network's decision to cancel shows hosted by nonwhite anchors: "That feels indefensible."

submitted 5 days ago • 43 comments

Maddow is calling what’s happening with non-white anchors at MNSBC a bad mistake, unnerving, worse than bad, and indefensible. And she calls the dozens of producer layoffs “not the right way to treat people, inefficient, and unnecessary.”

I snapped this on 3/27/19. Seven days later, the Trump administration canceled my remote work and moved my job 2,300 miles away and I had to move or be fired. Three months later, they investigated my podcast. The rest, as they say, is history.

Trump has replaced the head of the military, FBI, stacked SCOTUS and stated “He who saves his country does not violate any law”. He’s sided with autocrats above allies and is purging the public service of non-sycophants. AUKUS? Still beyond questioning? What would it take?

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.
