I think Trump is finally realising how tariffs work. www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

How tariffs work.

Update: Reporting of this was suppressed by the court in August. So no political motive.

What most of the other news outlets aren't reporting is that this kid was arrested back in August 2024 but the news only emerged today. Act of desperation to try & garner sympathy for Dutton. Smells like James Paterson to me. www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Hold your head high Aotearoa! 112 against, 11 in favour. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Dutton doing his bit for climate change by reducing fuel efficiency standards. www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

They already have the most expensive pharmaceuticals in the world. This will really help.

She's just playing dress ups.

POV: you’re a puppy

Peter Dutton will make your family worse off. Pass it on.

Don’t overthink this. He’s asking for bribes.

What I think was *really* beneficial about Hands Off is that people need to see (in real life) that they’re not alone. In-person events and marches can really fill up people’s fighting tanks, so to speak. And this regime has handed us a really really long, tedious, and difficult fight.

Maybe someobdy should look into the stock trading of John Barron?

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

Did Trump just scam the whole world? Was this just the most egregious piece of insider trading ever? Someone needs to investigate Trump and his family's share trading recent days.

Yes what a strategy!

I just heard David Littleproud say "When Labor gets in they cut everything and then we have to come along and put it all back." I laughed.
