In retrospect, Albanese giving Sky the debate on paywall, just so that he can win the debate and make Murdoch media look like idiots as they back peddle, might have actually been a stroke of genius.

I must admit I was very suss about those figures Trump was flashing like the Moses tablets. Not tariffs at all.

Hopefully this is a sign of more widespread voter backlash. www.scrippsnews.com/politics/ele...

We need the Australian Labor Party to take a similar tact as this. We don't need US markets; we need to pull back from our close relationship with the US and start developing alternative markets and alliances. www.france24.com/en/live-news...

"We are currently clean on OPSEC" (operational security)....😂

This is a shocking story but not even close to the most shocking thing to happen to detainees. The detention centres are privately run and have financial incentive to obstruct efforts by detainees or their friends and advocates to get them out even when they have been mistakenly detained.

Open the front door to this. This beautiful old tree a victim of cyclone Alfred.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social runs through all the contracts Elon is benefiting from while in control of the gov bureaucracy including cancelling the winner of an FAA contract for internet in order to replace it with Starlink. Grifters gonna grift. www.youtube.com/watch?v=czhj...

A federal judge in Washington said that the way the Trump administration set up and has been running Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency could violate the Constitution.

This is extremely interesting and her claims are totally born out by what Musk is doing with DOGE. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cZ7...

Just sayin'

The White House twitter account proclaiming Trump a king. Nothing done about congestion.

youtu.be/hkdSau2iPnU This is good! Really American host 🔹Tony Hinderman🔹 breaks down Voters in Roswell, Georgia, rip into Rich McCormick for abandoning his constituents in favor of King Trump!

Yes, we all should.

THese aren't peace talks, these are Trump's "capitulation to Russia" talks between Trump and and Russia.

This utter buffoon (a dangerous buffoon) is now head of the Health Department of the US gov. Unbelievable. www.huffpost.com/entry/rfk-jr...

Allsides, far from being unbiased, is actually measuring the social shift to the right in recent years rather than accurately judging bias. Adfrontsmedia on the other hand lists Associated Press as "middle" (which is accurate). Associated Press is centre but that seems Far Left now.

Honestly at this point with what's happening in America atm, I'm just at the "sit and watch the world burn" stage. Over hear in Aus there's literally not a damn thing else I can do about it.

This is the crew of Artemis. All crew members are highly qualified and 100% certified for the mission. Yet two of them are technically "DEI" hires, since NASA wanted to ensure a cross sectional representation of crew. That Crew Selection is now potentially at risk

New US state names revealed today by Mexico and Cuba.

I knew there was some cultural war reason he was targeting the Kennedy Centre, I assumed it was so they could push Christian art and culture but it's more base than that even. In a social media post Trump attacked the centre for having held "Drag Shows."

Thousands of investors in Trump’s crypto scheme lost $2 billion in just weeks while the Trump Organization racked up $100 million in trading fees. Just so happens that the CFPB, which Trump is trying to kill, recently announced new regulations for the crypto industry. Hello?

This would be hilarious if it wasn't so stupid. popular.info/p/the-nsas-b...

Let's just stop selling shit to the US.

The party who are incessantly moaning about how freedom of speech is being encroached and the Freedom of Press is being restricted, are demanding the Press limit their free expression if they want to access White House press releases. Tracks. www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

The FCC are "rooting out" discrimination against white people. Meanwhile white people continue to claim there's no such thing as discrimination against minorities and that it's all part of a victim complex.

Putting medical debt back on your credit report. Letting banks charge ridiculous overdraft fees again. These are but a few examples of how Trump is fighting for the working class
