We acknowledge that many are not comfortable calling out Israel, whether its due to guilt or sycophancy, the point isn’t to attack Israel for their identity but actions & supremacist ideology. Israel is committing war crimes, land theft, and genocide. It doesn’t matter why, only that it stops.

9 out of 10 companies exporting gas from QLD have not paid a cent in company tax over the last 10 years. $125 bn in LNG has been sold out of QLD by companies that reported $330 bn in revenue to the ATO. Meanwhile, domestic gas prices have shot up, pushed up by excessive gas exports. #auspol

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/l... Sad knowing we won’t hear Laura’s analysis every Monday on LNL. Such a National treasure. May she go well following her dreams and next adventures.

The mugging of the only Black foreign leader to visit the Oval Office so far this year was the tell: Donald Trump does have a few human rights lectures in him, after all, but only on behalf of those with the right color skin. my new column: www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

"What we're seeing now is a pivot from managing the cycle with things like inflation to dealing with the structural issues of the economy."

🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨Liberal Party Senator Jacinta Price has today written to tens of thousands of people spruiking MAGA-style disinformation group "Advance". Price backs the "far-right" group & calls for money from public. Massive questions for Liberals, just one day after split... theklaxon.com.au/2dxw

Jacinta Price is really struggling to come to terms with the fact that Australians overwhelmingly do not want her repulsive, cruel, divisive, Trump-like style of politics.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Given Britain was signatory to various conventions imposing a ā€œpositive obligation to act to prevent genocideā€ Malthouse asked what advice govt had taken as to the liability of the PM, foreign Sec, Falconer & previous ministers ā€œwhen the reckoning comesā€.

When you understand they [Trump & Co] are really trying to burn the whole hoUSe down it all makes sense. Worth a listen to this episode by @mattbevan.bsky.social et al www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

Malcolm Turnbull in a skirt? News Corp’s dinosaurs lose their minds over the election of a female Liberal leader 😱 ā€œTruth Lies & Mediaā€ hot off the press! šŸ’„ Promo: Match Frame Editing

With a resounding election victory for Labor despite rabid RW oral defecations of sycophantic media - it’s time for media reform. The rejection of lies & misinformation is an indication that ppl are tired of malicious propaganda & want change. independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

BRADFIELD: "Teal" independent Nicolette Boele declared the provisional winner by just 40 votes. There will be a recount due to the extremely close result. #auspol (1/3)

B2B Barrie’s live in Melbourne this week. Great show šŸ‘šŸ‘ podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/f...

I went further on the global Islamophobia context in the revised version of the piece on Zionist activity by front groups in the recent Australian election. The network of networks is illustrative. It’s not just Atlas in any of this rw weirdness but a collation. open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...

Lawyers say Roberts-Smith’s appeal cost $4M on top of $30M for the trial that found he committed war crimes, killing 4 men. Maybe that’s why the War Memorial upgrade costs $500M… To polish the myths, not the truth. #auspol

New in PN: The white rural reckoning "Months into his second term, Trump’s policies are already starting to wreak havoc on the very rural white citizens who have been his most loyal voting base."

podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/i... Very interesting in the context of how the American economy is being led today. Even if it blows up and flies away in pieces in front of your eyes. There will be money to be made again from this. USA will be great again. So says US Sec of Commerce Howard Lutnick.

David Shoebridge fires back as The Greens are accused of being ā€œburnedā€ by their stance on Israel’s invasion of Gaza saying it’s about doing ā€œeverything you canā€ to stop the genocide. ā€œif you take a political hit, you take the political hit…bcoz you have to speak upā€ #qanda youtu.be/asYRDOhLsHo?...

Opinion | The Trump administration stands for white supremacy, patriarchy and social fascism. Anyone pretending otherwise is lying, @marquelawyers.com.au writes.

Another brilliant article from John Hewson ā€˜It should finally be recognised that Sky News & certain newspapers are no longer news services & they are in part responsible for the resounding thrashing of Peter Dutton & his team’ www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

Geezuz QLD LNP axing 75% of staff at Service Delivery in QLD Dept of Housing. Reducing pay of remaining permanents. This is what the LNP do. They CUT services, cut health, cut education - to benefit themselves & their donors. Campbell Newman 2.0 with a Joh gerrymander if they can get away with it

Fascinating analysis here about how Advance made huge strategic error in whacking Greens and potentially helping Labor form a larger majority. I would add to this that Advance helped make the Liberals look more Trumpist right when Libs were trying to hide their MAGA hats. Well done Advance grubs!

some tough love from former Liberal MP Julia Banks, a woman I have always held in high esteem...and with whom I spoke regularly on the site formerly known as Prince. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

We’re already in a climate emergency. Stronger, more damaging storms; longer, hotter, more deadly heatwaves; longer droughts; rising sea levels risking water aquifers, inundation of low lying areas, & erosion; longer; more dangerous bushfire seasons stretching over most of the year… Higher insurance
