Legal permanent resident of the U.S., showing up to apply for citizenship, with no allegations of criminal activity, is arrested and detained by masked police. This is fascism, and that is not a word I use lightly. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/n...

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Greedy Oligarchs don't want to pay Taxes. They want most of us working as modern day serfs. Local businesses employ locally, they Sponsor local clubs. They battle to survive like us.

What a contrast between how our allies get treated versus little dictators like Bukele. Not a word about him not wearing a suit either, as he petitions the US to expand his country’s mercenary penal colony by sending him more money.

Why didn't Dutton get a heads up on Putin's plans from his great friend Trump? Isn't Dutton besties with Trump? Doesn't Trump suck up to Putin? Don't dictators talk to each other any more?

Dutton still hasn't told this nut case to shut up until the election is over? I think he's just given up. He knows he's going to lose, and he doesn't care any more.

The divergence here from two companies with *very* similar customer bases is pretty wild, you do not see this sort of thing happen at scale very often.

Here is how WaPo handled Dem's 10-day long effort to count every vote in PA vs. GOP's 5-month long effort to throw out thousands of votes in NC. Support independent, pro-democracy media.

Brilliant work from Alan Kohler (sadly one of the very few class acts left at our once great public broadcaster). #auspol “The United States has become a gangster state. Australia should rethink its relationship with America because alliance is becoming obeisance.” www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Alan Kohler nails it: America is becoming a gangster state. Australia should rethink its relationship because alliance will turn into obeisance. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Councils in Australia can afford to buy "investments"? Like a Bunnings franchise? This is what they do with your rates, Newcastle? I had no idea. Is this like a sovereign fund? I wonder what kind of investments Merri-bek Council in Victoria has? www.realestatesource.com.au/council-buys...

Trump was asked this week how he would determine tariff exemptions for American companies. “Instinctively,” he responded. That’s not a policy — it’s racketeering. Pay Trump. Get a deal.

incredible the way trump is getting embarrassed on the world stage getting dog walked by china, dunked on by canada, immediately reconfiguring his delusional tariffs which arent even being collected at ports as his approval ratings crater…all while putin is openly ignoring him. embarrassing stuff

Trump has been trying to bully Maine Governor Janet Mills. A fight he is not winning. Her unwillingness to back down, similar to Boston Mayor @wutrain.bsky.social, is a lesson that could be well learned by some universities and law firms in our midst. 1/ www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/12/s...

Dutton now on ABC “Albanese has created an immigration boom that created a housing crisis”. Yeah I’m sure the housing crisis is not because you and people like you own 26 investment properties. Fucking clown. #auspol
