Why is it that the people who keep insisting they love it here and everyone else should leave are the ones who feel the need to keep marching around angrily saying how much they love it here

Every Australian should know about the influences underpinning our politics - which goes a long way to explain the mess we’re in #auspol

15 people shot on Bondi Beach and the government introduced new legislation within days.
1 man killed by a king hit, government introduced new legislation within days.
2 or more women killed every week at the hands of partners or former partners and …. crickets.
Their priorities are wrong!

Sen. David Shoebridge:
Palantir, the far-right US data corporation, has just been given security clearance with access to secret Australian govt data.
They're enabling ICE surveillance and helping target the genocide in Gaza.
It's time ban them from govt contracts and all our data.

“The IMF’s report makes no mention of Greenland, or Venezuela, or even Trump. Everything that defiles the pretence that normality continues is scrubbed away,” writes Greg Jericho, Chief Economist at The Australia Institute.

For the un-zombified, the news will be painful today. I was stuck in a car listening to 774 and had to endure a lengthy glowing eulogy for this man, about what a humanitarian hero he was, and not a single inch of push back from Raf Epstein. We're all the "good Germans" now.

Utterances of a gibbering idiot. And any media org that does not report it as such is complicit
![NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreie7itpptx3xbxhpsnlaqmwk752h7pcrion5ija2apksljtax2adx4@jpeg)

Just a reminder that Trump is selling Venezuelan oil and depositing the proceeds into a bank account in Qatar that is NOT under any control by the US government or Congress.
He's just stealing it. It really is that simple.

The USA was party to an agreement with Ukraine, back in the 1990s, if Ukraine gave up their nuclear arsenal they would be offered protection. So much for the good old USA’s word!

Rabbi Eli Schlanger is STILL being praised on the ABC News website.
