The cost it this is not addressed will dwarf DOGE's savings

Like I said, just because trump has lowered the bar doesnt mean we walk under it. Australia, wtf. These things really matter. What does it say to candidates that this party is happy to have a remoreseless convicted rapist at the helm? What values are ushered into parliament? #auspol

"With all respect, consumers tend to be like goldfish; they tend to forget things very quickly,” Schmidt added. Um, no. Class action, anyone? www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Just because the US lower the bar, we dont have to crawl under it. #auspol

When mining co’s aren’t busy donating 2 Advance 2 attack Teals, Independents & Greens with anti-renewable rhetoric & misinformation they’re saturating MSM with ads 2 let numpties know how much coal benefits their communities These climate vandals prefer short-term profit to saving ppl & the planet

Hey Australia, is this our Axis? #auspol

Some brave sausage has boosted morale in the HUD department and well beyond. I hope it was internal. Otherwise... 😱 (sees images of screen takeovers in old Dr Who episodes)

Even the Germans are dumping the USA as allies @AlboMP. We need to follow suit. Dump #AUKUS and walk away. #auspol www.theage.com.au/world/europe...

4 Corners just presented the most uncritical profile if trump. WTAF? Starts well enough but loses itself:unchecked narcissism and lies is NOT awe inspiring! Last comments were not only uncritical but sychophantic #ABC #4Corners #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Wow. Mysogyny isnt likely to win customers. Or is it?

What a greenwash of an industry. It is so unsustainable

Oh. My. God

Germany’s likely new chancellor Friedrich Merz: And for me, the absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible so that we step by step to also truly achieve independence from the USA. I would not have believed that I would have to say something like this on TV...

I hope next time dutton is interviewed they interrogate his understanding of the program, the cost, the impact, the problem that prompted the need and how he will find the money-Ask him to address his promise directly to camera to those Australians pushing through the symptoms post LNP neglect #ABC

New levels of sinister that, you know, they just might have talked about over McDonalds

We must move away from any reliance on Musk’s Starlink immediately. Not to be putting plans in place to do this is negligent, harmful to all Australians & is the opposite of keeping us safe #auspol

This is not a summit, it’s a performance review.

#Election2025 #auspol How will election platforms embrace this development? Or did the #alp #albo pissweak show for the referendum cast a shadow to hide under. LEAD! #FRONTIERWARS www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Albanese in Tas talking up this overseas owned industry while this 👇 is happening. We’re being gaslighted #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Richard Flanagan got it right recently in an article for the Nine papers #auspol

Big Gas is taking the piss. Help us spread the word, and share this. 👇 90% of WA’s gas is exported. Big Gas takes 73% the gas for free. To add insult to injury, these gas exporters have never paid resources tax. Add your name to make them pay their fair share: theaus.in/collect_gas_... #auspol

If the proposed laws around mandatory sentences targeting alleged ‘antisemitism’ were targeting all racism and had been around during the Voice debate, we’d have had to build new jails. I’d be feeling pretty unappreciated if I was an Indigenous Australian. #auspol

Brilliant! #BarryCassidy election coverage!!! (with right wing ex Crosby Textor Tony Barry 🙄?) www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

DSS: "The protected information provisions in the legislation are designed to protect all parties involved in the Scheme as a measure to ENSURE THE SCHEMES INTEGRITY" (My caps). Maaate... you just undermined that to protect the perp church! #auspol

I attended a democratic fundraiser tonight where they sold raffle tickets for a dozen eggs… Genius.

Remember being a teenager? This may be our best strategy Disobey, resist, make a mess, infuriate Just dont give up hope Connection makes us fight fit. Isolation breeds despair Be loud when they want us to lay low Make fun in public places #resist wagingnonviolence.org/ipra/2025/02...

Will we ever get a government with the guts to do the whole job? Confront the past and its ongoing impact, confront the present and its ongoing impact, join the dots, tell the truth, read the research, listen, and let First Nations lead in going forward? I live with hope.

Yup. Can't imagine what its like for local progressives with a clear eye on the climate emergency. It must be overwhelming at times. Eastern states, how can we muck this oligarchy? We need to 'mine' our languishing human assets. #queengina #auspol

Tragic! I hope schools are now more alert to the unleashed harm of #trumpII America

Well, we are about to cut the umbilicus from the USA so let's be independent, that'd work. A Republic and new flag will represent who we are, not some fool who wears a crown. Sh*t we can be great too!

The Australian election is there to be won for the first political leader who comes out and says it plainly: The USA has become a fascist state, run by a gangster and a bunch of unaccountable plutocrats. They can take their submarine contract and shove it.

Australia's political guardrails feel like shiny illusions—great for show but lacking real substance. 🤔✨ It's time we dig deeper and demand genuine accountability! Let's not settle for surface-level politics! 🇦🇺💔 AussiePolitics #WakeUpAustralia #RealTalk blakandblack.com/2025/02/18/t...
