Has this happened to you or anyone you know? Please let the folks at @sydmorningherald.bsky.social know here: [email protected] (PS anyone thinking about travelling to the US should read this and spend their money elsewhere)

Tell me how you machine gun uniformed ambos in the back of the head and then in your shame hide their bodies in a mass grave and then expect the world to support you? Tell me again how exercised you are about Zionists being made to feel "uncomfortable" on campus. Tell me again. I weep.

"‘Point-Blank Range’: How Israel Executed 15 Medics and Rescue Workers in Gaza" Writing for Zeteo, Diana Buttu says she had a difficult time writing this essay because she could not stop thinking about the level of evil needed to carry this out.

It’s wild watching every advanced agency developed during my lifetime be destroyed on purpose, by people who want to profit from it and cheered on by those who will be hurt the most because they don't understand how things work.

Dutton refuses to rule out ABC cuts and repeatedly declines meeting with chair Kim Williams, sources say

More war crimes. Every day, more war crimes.

Shame on all who supported this heinous and treacherous act against the environment. “This amendment will not achieve the comprehensive reforms the EPBC Act needs. In fact, it will actively undermine these goals.” theconversation.com/protecting-s...

Imprison the innocent, or those without due process but pardon and celebrate a career criminal, insurrectionist and a person who was tried and convicted by a jury. The worst of us have taken over the country. This is tyranny. www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

The Senate is now back debating legislation to utterly gut the environmental laws. A shameful act that will hang like a rotting carcass for all time around all members and Senators of the ALP who voted in favour of it. Utterly pathetic. A party stinking of salmon sh*t

#Budget25. #AbcNews Loved Spear's intro to his budget analysis where he gleefully proclaimed that #SarahFergason interviewed that dill #AngusFraser Good on him

Thanks to @allyann.bsky.social for pointing out this was from 2017, tRump's first attempt... So shocked, I hadn't noticed 😳

There’s a simple solution. Boycott the US. Just don’t go.

Absolutely truly pathetic. Scott Morrison would be proud. Labor’s bid to protect Tasmanian salmon industry met with unease from pro-environment MPs www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

🤬🤬

Uh, this is pretty important. www.wired.com/story/underg...

#newsbreakfast Wide eyed Dave Sharma darkly supports Israel's genocide as he blames H for Israel having no choice. He is not buying any suggestions of compassion for the brutal deaths of Palestinian children......

My oh my. The Lehrmann Curse strikes again. Sofronoff a corrupt, dishonest liar. Always welcome at NewsCorpse, of course.

Walter Sofronoff - head of the ACT Lehrmann inquiry - has been found to have engaged in "serious corrupt conduct" through his disclosures to two journalists: Janet Albrechtsen at The Australian newspaper & Elizabeth Byrne at the ABC. Well, well, well . . . www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The resumption of Israel’s bombardment of Gaza, with the full backing of the US government, is an outrage. Israel’s ongoing assault will only deepen the devastation and suffering already inflicted on Gazans.

The FBI is trying to criminalize Habitat for Humanity for receiving climate grants from the EPA. Yes, the nonprofit that builds houses for low-income people. This clearly demonstrates just how absurd and extreme the Trump regime has become. It's targeted harassment.

Canada is slashing its order of F-35 fighters from 88 to not more than 32. It will re-invest the billions saved to purchase 60 or more Swedish Saab Gripen E/F-39's. The USA is no longer a trustworthy ally. Simply.

Coalition Sen Jacinta Nampijinpa Price 'at risk of serious contempt of the Senate' for failing to declare her shareholding in the corporate trustee for her family trust. Price, Dutton's DOGE-like efficiency shadow hasn’t disclosed she's a director of company #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2025/03/14/j...

#ABCNews. I wonder if Albo would get this level of coverage with so little to say....
