GOP trying to pretend their racism is patriotism.........

Why are criminal charges not being filed in such an egregious case of illegal electoral manipulation? 47k pamphlets is not the work of one person without backing and resources. It couldn’t be more blatant. #auspol

Within a few hours, Delvecchio car ceo issued another statement: “If the Coalition is indeed scrapping the FBT exemption, after the opposition leader just days ago indicated he didn’t have any proposals to change it, then we are extremely disappointed and confused by this backflip. #auspol

Toxic masculinity isn’t a concern here, and we don’t view empathy as toxic. For centuries, adult males have huddled together, protecting the colony’s most vulnerable, giving their future a chance amidst the raging storms that threaten them.

Why are Liberals such a menace behind the wheel? Every campaign stop is a demolition derby. If you see a Liberal van coming, maybe for your own safety, just pull over and let the chaos pass.

“We are expected to believe that this extraordinary haziness on issues central to who should lead the country is somehow exciting and full of promise,” writes John Hewson “It isn’t. It’s simply nothing.”

Disabled parking must have been taken. The entitlement with this lot! #auspol #ausvotes25

Could the reason be that the people in charge of space programs nowadays can't count?

WOW when the media laugh at your answer 😬 #auspol

I ran Senator Babet's tweet through Google Translate

Overnight Israel bombed a warehouse storing bulldozers and heavy machinery that's used to rescue survivors trapped under the rubble after Israel air strikes. As Rushdi Abualouf reports, this will make it more difficult for rescue teams to save people. Which is why Israel did it.

France, the Netherlands, now Norway...

It gets worse for Peter Dutton as Dan Tehan pledges to "cut" skilled migration from 132k to 150k. Yes, you read that correctly. The alternate immigration minister proposes cutting upwards. I'm not sure the name of the journo but she's sharp & what the nation needs. #ausvotes

It’s #WorldImmunizationWeek Vaccines have saved 154 million lives in the last 50 years. That’s 6 lives every minute. A reminder of what is #HumanlyPossible. Science saves lives. #VaccinesWork bit.ly/wiw2025

Exactly right!!! Ffs! Who are they kidding??? #auspol

Amazing. Soon everything will be treated with colloidal silver mixed with fucking Robitussin.

All those new houses you want built, those new hospitals staffed, those aged care and nursing facilities covered you can forget about them all. “Skilled visas will be targeted as part of the Coalition's plan to cut permanent migration by 25 per cent.” www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

"If the major parties were really concerned with their declining primary votes they could always try spelling out a big plan to make the country better and try to win a debate with those who disagree with them." @richarddenniss.bsky.social www.themonthly.com.au/issue/2025/a...

don’t risk Dutton #auspol #Australia #politics #AusVotes25

Peter Dutton grilled on his latest backflip on EV subsidies, decides to attack PM Albanese for not accepting the “premise of the question” Tells journo “I won’t do that to you Paul!” But then under pressure “I don’t accept the premise of your question”🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️💥#auspol25 youtu.be/Jaee-Dot28M?...

Well, there you go! Imagine this being your proudest moment! 👎🏻

Preferencing cookers in Kooyong are we now? M’kay, Amelia. #kooyongvotes #auspol #election2025

Mike Foley from The Age/SMH handing David Littleproud’s arse to him re the ridiculousness of his nuclear plan - particularly in relation to the Latrobe Valley and its lack of access to water.

"Attorney General shall initiate appropriate action to repeal or amend the implementing regulations for Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for all agencies" What's Title VI? "prohibits discrimination against or otherwise excluding individuals on the basis of race, color, or national origin"

Wait isn't this supposed to be the party of manliness that would consider a makeup studio for a dude to be pretty effeminate? Like this doesn't sound very alpha tbh

She said that way too casually.

Climate 200 has sent extra 💰 to "Teal" campaigns from Bunbury to Burpengary over the last few weeks (hello, we're in an election campaign). Yet the LNP's media arm ⬇️ seems extra-obsessed with Melbourne* indys, Zoe Daniel ↙️ and Monique Ryan ↘️. Bring on the harassment, over 'nothingburger' stories:

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

Isn't that "special"

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

America is Russia's bitch

god this shit is blood boiling

Quite why we had a #rainbow last evening is beyond me, as we’ve had no rain...

💥 BREAKING: Goldman Sachs shareholders voted today to reject two anti-DEI proposals, both by 98-2 percent. GS Board urged shareholders to vote to reject proposals. "We believe that diversity, including diversity of thought, experience and perspectives, is important to our commercial success."

RFK Jr. is launching surveillance against special needs and disabled individuals, which is a direct violation of the HIPAA right to medical records privacy. Many of which receive social services benefits. This regime intends to harm those who are in the most of need in this country. Pathetic!

Remember when the LNP threw her in prison? Neither do they.

‘It’s easy to imagine not only watching one of these crowds of rebels marching along the highway but throwing down hoes and sickles to join it. There were friends to be made and songs to be sung.’ @malcolmgaskill.bsky.social on the German Peasants’ War: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Holy sh*t. This is as unhinged as it is possible to get... Balls out lunacy.

Okay. So now it appears the Libs have totalled not one, not two, but three campaign trucks in the past three days. And in releated news, the rhetorical 'irony' and 'metaphor' are missing presumed dead. #asupol #election2025
