Don’t worry, everyone! Chuck Schumer is writing a sternly worded letter as we speak!! Then it’s off to another billionaire’s wedding on Martha’s Vineyard.

No @albomp.bsky.social , just no war, no going to war with America. #auspol

They're really trying to WMD our butts into supporting the mass-murders of countless more brown people in the Middle East again. I wouldn't accept this type of hackneyed recycled bullshit from my entertainment, why would I accept it from my political propaganda?

I was one of 450,000 Australians that were hounded for 18 months with a false Robodebt. I’m furious Morrison was awarded the highest honour for ignoring lawyers and illegally chasing us and allowing his ministers to call us criminals.

It's Christine who should be getting, and deserving, that award!

We have an Independent Mayor #Labor Councillors are so determined to wear him down, to force a bi-election & put up their own candidate. The skulduggery is unbelievable. @ronhoenigmp.bsky.social is deliberately letting it happen because so much to hide & a husband works in Mac St @albomp.bsky.social

"Approval of the North West Shelf extension would be easily one of the worst decisions ever made by an Environment Minister in Australia's history," said @grogsgamut.bsky.social.

My profession causes immense harm. Journalism has been abused, seized by the powerful, and used as a tool to manufacture consent for atrocity. Maybe none of this matters, but when my son asks about this period I will be able to look him in the eyes and say I wasn't a coward, I wasn't complicit.

🚨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

Bridget McKenzie has that rehearsed angry, liar delivery, the same way she spoke when she was defending and denying sports rorting. Horrible. #Nationals #auspol

@liberalaus.bsky.social are irrelevant now..the Deputy #O’Brien looks & talks like #Morrison.. rehearsed denial & BS & watching #730abc interview the impressive Independent candidate for #Blaxland.. illustrates demise of the duopoly & @albomp.bsky.social also needs to acknowledge community sentiment

The federal Liberal Party handed over sensitive voter information to the Exclusive Brethren as part of a mammoth phone campaign in which members of the secretive Christian religious sect made nearly a million calls on behalf of the LNP in the run-up to the federal election. Thread .. 🧵 #auspol

71 days of Israeli blockade on Gaza Strip Starving 2.1m people, almost half children

If you are following the #AtlasNetwork conversation, this is fascinating. Dahlia Lithwick is the 👌 SCOTUS watcher. Here she discusses the influence of Atlas and Council for National Policy (Christofash), bringing in the tech bros that Kara Swisher knows so well. slate.com/podcasts/ami...

Mooney Mooney Creek: CRASH Multiple vehicles. Roads affected: M1 Pacific Motorway on Mooney Mooney Bridge. Affected directions: Southbound

ED HUSIC: "We do need to keep the focus on there and also ensure that there are voices on the international stage, of which WE SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE ONE, that stress that innocent people should not be treated this way and starved out." Absolutely.

Hard to believe now there was a time we could turn to ABC News for forensic analysis, investigation and reporting on what Israel was doing to the Palestinians instead of what we get today: suppression of the genocide and regurgitation of Israeli propaganda. #auspol #StopIsrael #FreePalestine

Trump’s taste is in his arse. There’s plenty of room there…

If you're 🇦🇺, or want to learn how global oil corps (& #AtlasNetwork) shape (inter)national political conditions thru disinfo, lobbying, infiltration of institutions to avoid tax & block democratic govts from preventing planetary heating, & want to support gutsy indi journos: IT'S TIME TO GET SLICK!

Seriously though Labor, this isn’t the Australian people saying ‘well done Labor’ this is us saying ‘take your Trumpian bullshit and fuck off’. Don’t lose sight of that. #auspol #ausvotes #binnight

"Those electors in Dickson have a chance to drive a political stake through his dark political heart." Six years on from Paul Keating's assessment of Peter Dutton, the voters pass judgement. #ausvotes youtu.be/67JtUZYktcI

Jacinta. Now words.
