Peter Dutton is playing with fire w race-based division & fear. Dutton's 'running around throwing matches, which the Aust media is all too willing to feed, because their fundamental drive is not the good of the country but telling stories that grab attention' #auspol johnmenadue.com/peter-dutton...

Bernard Keane: 'Peter Dutton assiduously avoids being questioned by the media & vanishes altogether when under pressure.. a recurring feature of Dutton’s leadership is that he is unable to maintain a policy position for, in some cases, even a matter of days' #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/07/p...

‘For years, Donald Trump’s servility to Vladimir Putin was dismissed as mere vanity or venality, an eccentric quirk of a reality-show president. Now, it is clear that the takeover is complete. On Monday, Trump spit endless insults at Ukraine and its leader while praising Putin without limit.’

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

How appalling that the Australian Government has not shown support for the International Criminal Court after the US Government’s sanctions against it. This is a matter of principle. The ICC deals with war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.

If the ABC is going to give softball interviews to "former Home Affairs secretary" Mike Pezzullo, they should really disclose to readers that he was sacked from that job for 14 breaches of the Code of Conduct

Well what do you know, turns out there is a corruption issue in the Robodebt referrals worth investigating. NACC independent reviewer says all six people referred should be investigated for possible corrupt conduct. The NACC gets to do the investigation, of course. www.nacc.gov.au/news-and-med...

🚨The NACC will be forced to investigate over the Coalition's $1.7 billion Robodebt scheme after a humiliating intervention. NACC announced it today under cover of RBA’s rate cut - despite "decision" made over a week ago. Brereton still refusing to quit... theklaxon.com.au/09r7

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

The year is 2025 and every artist, writer, musician, actor, everyone & every form of culture has been cancelled to protect Israel's genocide. Somehow we're still saying "this sets a dangerous precedent" when we are well beyond that, this is the ever-expanding silence that follows

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

Her messaging is so strong. This is the entire crux of it. He can't do it. It's illegal. Congress is responsible to the constitution and must deny this request. Full stop.
