Boom

They told us over and over to stop exaggerating, but it’s worse. Much worse.

"all we are left with is a floundering superpower with depleted military prowess, a broken economic model, a crisis-ridden democracy and an openly thuggish demeanour" @owenjones.bsky.social Aust. politicians spruiking 'shared values' can't be trusted #DitchAUKUS www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"There was a protest at a gas conference, and the next day, the South Australian Parliament changed the law. The next day they criminalised protest. "If protest was ineffective, why would they do that?" - Executive Director @richarddenniss.bsky.social at our #ClimateIntegrity Summit 2025 #auspol

Sorry it’s got lots of words.

“Did Creative Australia honestly think they could just ring up the next artist on the shortlist? ... No artists worth their soul will touch that pavilion now. They can’t. It’s totally tainted." www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

theklaxon.com.au/liberal-part... ‘The Albanese Government, which was swept to power in 2022 on a platform of “accountability” and “transparency”, refused to implement truth in political advertising laws…’ Bet they regret that now.

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

Top comment on the recent NYT story on DOGE’s young aides www.nytimes.com/shared/comme...

I really can’t stomach this video of the geriatric “opposition party”, proving themselves physically and fundamentally incapable of entering a government building because Elon posted a skinny Nazi doorman in front of it. Like… they’re lecturing him?? I’m so fucking sick of these spineless slugs.

What an utterly shite policy. But yeah please come tell me that we need to support it or gosh Dutton will be in power and think how bad that will be. Heck we might abase ourselves to Trump! Oh wait… www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

Labor just voted with the Coalition to kill THEIR OWN Nature Positive reforms🤯 Enough crossbenchers voted to keep it alive in the Senate for Labor to have passed their long promised reform. Neither of the major parties will stand up for Nature 😥

Finally some MSM coverage of the $15m+ fund that is being used to flood the zone with smear, division and misinformation. Voters deserve better! #auspol www.theage.com.au/politics/vic...

Imagine if all ABC employees were to post just one article from a trusted source on social media considered ‘controversial’- otherwise known as the truth. 😶😶😶 Would the ABC care to explain: does the broadcaster really consider factual human rights reporting “controversial”? #auspol

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: "Now, we will act to finally bury, with God's help, the dangerous idea of a Palestinian state," he triumphantly declared. Peter Dutton said Trump is a “big thinker” and he thought the proposal was part of Trump’s “desire to see peace and stability in the region”.

I fully support the calls for tougher hate speech laws but draw the line at rushing through extreme measures like mandatory sentencing as it sets a dangerous precedent.

From the river…

Why can’t Albo just say “If Trump did what he proposed, it would be a war crime”? It’s not a running commentary, it’s a statement of fact. What is he so afraid of?

ABC staff say the broadcaster's handling of the Antoinette Lattouf case "destroys any hope that the ABC intends to address the systemic racism identified by the Janke review of last year" www.meaa.org/mediaroom/ab...

I’ve become aware that someone is impersonating me and sending bizarre legal threats to individuals by text message. If you receive a text like this from someone claiming to be me, please let me know by emailing [email protected]

So we’re signed up for AUKUS with a country that openly defies/denies international law. That could take our defence forces to some even darker places.
