Here you go.

MSNBC shake-up: the issue is, they didn't have a Joy Reid problem. They have a Joe Scarborough problem. Until he is fired, MSNBC will not recover. Shuffling tepid shows in and out does nothing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

Are you kidding me? mediatakeout.com/joy-reid-fir...

MSNBC firing Joy Reid before Mika and Joe tells you all you need to know.

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

Infuriating! 😡 My son has a plethora of specialists in other cities. The majority of his medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! Not just because of Critter’s car anxiety, but wear and tear on our car. 🤬

Bits of dead farmed salmon are washing up on beaches kms away from pens but.. “The EPA would not say how much antibiotic was being used by Huon, citing "commercial in confidence". Water flows. This should be transparent. How far away does the impact spread in natural ecosystems?

I quite enjoyed the yarn about the Gentlemen’s (and Ladies) Clubs being taxed in Victoria today. Next let’s do the property holding tax free Churches - and all their schools, community services, aged care, colleges at universities. They also exclude people.

This essay by trans cyclist Austin Killips is a must-read and is a perfect dismantling of the lie that Republicans are trying to "save women's sports."

LEARN FROM HISTORY!!!!!!!!

Dear F47, liddle Marco, and the man who would be emperor ~ With sovereignty, President Zelenskyy

The Park Service has removed references to trans people from the Stonewall memorial. At the start of my poetic career, I wrote this to maintain the truth - they were there. They can chisel words off monuments: they can censor my poetry . Truth remains. glamourousrags.wordpress.com/2009/06/28/s...

Dear ABC management. It's not that hard to run a successful organisation. You just need to bring a vision, treat your staff like human beings, listen to stakeholders, promote talent, support reasonable risks, dismiss the bullies, and create safety. Stop making it look hard.

This is appalling … This ALP Albanese Government has no regard for International Law. The AUKUS Alliance is a danger to our democracy, our sovereignty and our standing on the world stage. The ALP have no mandate to make decisions that go against our Nations interest. #auspol #WTFAlbo #AUKUS

“He's advocating a war crime. There’s no question under international law that to completely halt humanitarian aid, food and water at a time of war [to civilian populations] that's a war crime. Without any question.” - John Lyons @johnthelyonsden.bsky.social on Israeli politician Ben-Gvir.

Graham Perrett is a good one. Sorry to see him leave parliament live.australiainstitute.org.au

Dutton’s wheelbarrow has a load of fear mongering, intolerance, misogyny, hate, divisiveness, scare tactics, non-science (also known as NONSENSE), distractions, dead cats, Murdoch media propaganda (repeated by *our* ABC)… No policies. No vision. No clue. No care for humanity. No love.

Today’s crowd of folks at the Protect Trans Youth rally was the best I’ve ever been with at a rally. Turns out that Trans people and people who love Trans people and families are just really fantastic, kind, caring, generous. A honestly lovely crowd.

Here’s a wonderful clip of the Sydney Crowd and @transjusticeau.bsky.social Protect Trans Youth rally in Sydney today. www.instagram.com/reel/DFzLTa3...

There were rallies in 20 locations around Australia today in support of trans youth in Queensland who have been denied gender-affirming care by the state government. We stand in solidarity with our friends in the US, and QLD, we've got you! We're not going away! www.facebook.com/reel/2885287...

Also oddly, Ferguson is not suggesting that they be "relocated" back to the land on which they were originally displaced from during the Nakba. Very odd, that.

For non-Australians who have the luxury of not knowing who Gina Rinehart is, she's Australia's richest megabillionaire, having inherited her mining empire from her genocidally racist father. Currently wading into Australian politics and snuggling up to Trump. And this is spot on.

I cannot believe the Communications Minister just said the Govt has no concerns about Elon Musk owning a big part of our vital telecommunications infrastructure. That’s a very dangerous position for our Govt to take on our behalf. Get some guts Labor!!! #abc730 #auspol

Fellow butterflies - if you can make it on the weekend (in Australia), please show up in support! Lives are literally at stake, and we also stand in solidarity with families in the US who are going through frightening times right now. www.facebook.com/share/p/1Wbq...

Australia became a strong ally of the US after the fall of Singapore. Those days have gone too. Time to look elsewhere. #Auspol.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT OK. THESE MEN ARE CRIMINALS!!!

They've given up pretending. My SMH/The Age cartoon.

We could’ve had Tim 😭

When they tell you who they are, believe them

We are witnessing “a coup by a billionaire oligarch who wants to subvert the functioning of government and grab as much private power and control as his ally in the White House will permit. So far, that amount appears to be as much as he wants.” www.americaamerica.news/p/bullies-cr...

In case anyone needs to see this hunk of toejam lay out her aspirations for our country, remember she’s BFFs with Dutton, who has stated that he intends to denude regulations to supercharge mining. #auspol #ginarinehart #santos #dutton vt.tiktok.com/ZS6wBn22b/ Part 2 video in comments

Whatever you do, please don’t log on to X and retweet things about “BigBalls” and the other DOGE staffers who are hijacking the government’s payment systems and citizens’ private data.

Oh Canada! 🇨🇦

He is predictable He cuts off those who cant defend themselves like the aged, kids… That said, who is behind him is worse. It will all come out soon. I hope everyone will be ok.. Remember focus on gratitude and joy. #auspol #futurology #seer #truth #empire-falling #herewegoagain #Rome #Ottoman

A Louisiana mum has been charged with helping her child safely terminate a pregnancy. They will take that good mum & put her in jail. Trans, gay & non-binary kids are being told they won’t be allowed to exist. Qld is following. Sharpen your wits, nails & teeth. Earrings out. It’s on.

While Australians watch the US fall into utter chaos and self-destruction, please remember that Dutton models himself on Trump.

The coup happening right now is already far worse than Jan 6. But it's taking place at desks and in offices without costumes, flags, horns and human feces, so it's just not as good for television.
