This is why I agree with those calling for a Royal Commission.
So we can get to the bottom of all this pandering and examine the real evidence for any antisemitism not just pathetic whinging.
Catherine Holmes would be a fine Commissioner if she would accept.

JD Vance just said the quiet part out loud.

On camera, he admitted that Jared Kushner — Trump’s son-in-law, with no official government role — is “the investor” in Middle East “peace” talks.

Read that again.

I’m in New Zealand now and have never seen hate like this before.
And from a group who call themselves Christian.
I call them cunts!

I don't know why anybody is surprised with this. From the moment the Trump administration announced they were going to release the Epstein Files it was obvious they would be heavily redacted.

Just to be clear. It’s the John F Kennedy center legally.

Just like it’s still the department of defense

You know who we haven't seen in any photos with Jeffrey Epstein?

Finally, someone in the media has highlighted the hypocrisy of the Coalition who previously advocated that freedom of speech was more important than hate speech.

Two years have flipped the script on free speech. Now Australia is in new territory
Legislating around hate speech has never been straightforward, but the Bondi attack has shifted the debate. Labor’s new laws will put that public sentiment to the test.

Next will be the Trump-Jefferson Memorial & the Trump-Lincoln Memorial.
He knows Jefferson & Lincoln didn't build & name those monuments but he also knows nobody will name anything after him but probably doesn't know they will remove his name after he dies.

Susssssan Ley wants the PM to recall Parliament to debate anti-semitism.
Susssssan Ley consistently voted for the changes to 18c of the Racial Discrimination Act.

NSW Premier Minns believes peace protests cause people with extreme religious beliefs to shoot people with different religious beliefs.

There is no connection between these two things.

If they ban protesting, protest more.

I said this before: I'm pretty sure 2 Muslim terrorists with links to IS were not influenced by the Bridge March against genocide.
The conservatives forces using the Bondi Massacre to instigate a crackdown of freedoms of speech and the right to assembly are completely disgusting.

Protesting genocide and the actions of the Netanyahu Israeli govt are not antisemitic.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

The Israeli Ambassador is about to give a press conference at the site of the Bondi terror attack.
All I can say is he better be very fucking careful what he says and not echo Netanyahu's offensive comments.
