I really don't like to say it, but it's time for all American allies to force close ALL American military bases in their respective countries. Maybe that would send a powerful enough message to the Felon in chief.

ChatGPT is a scapegoat. It may lift the quality of work of the worst students, but universities were already giving poor work a passing grade.

It is the universities who broke trust first -- not the students.

Trump is trying to sell Palestinian sovereignty for $1 billion per seat while Palestinians are still being bombed and starved under the so-called “ceasefire.”

This isn’t diplomacy, it’s profiteering off genocide. Australia better not touch this with a 10-foot pole.

Trump has invited Albo to sit on the Board of Peace. If Australia joins, it will be a member for at least three years and would need to pay #$US1 billion to remain on the Board of Peace beyond that. Just another DJT grift.

This is just more Trump bullshit and grift, yet our weak as piss, Deputy PM, "welcomes" the invitation. It's one thing to treat Trump cautiously. It's quite another to be obsequious to his absurd demands. #auspol

Every day Australians of clarity and conscience wake up determined not to be complicit. They do everything they can, wrecking their peace, risking vilification, because they know it's the humane reaction.

And every day they're let down by this sellout Mr Magoo fascist fluffer.

It's helpful to understand the creation of a Gaza Board of Peace as an attempt to replace key security and peacekeeping functions managed by the UN. It's also helpful to understand the pattern here: given prior attempts to replace UNRWA with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

Sometimes its only intense suffering that strips away the BS and allows us to see clearly. That's why we should listen to Michael. Changing laws may make us less safe. If you eliminate one source of drugs, addicts will simply find others. Stop this vulgar politicising of tragedy. #Auspol

@albomp.bsky.social, just say no.

Please don’t associate Australians with Trump and Netanyahu’s crooked property deal. The deal was sealed by the blood of genocide.

Just say no.

It's the United States threatening Greenland, not only Trump. The American people elected Trump, their rubber-stamp Congress is meant to control him. But they don't so they are part of the problem.
Americans are threatening Europe. Europeans who support the U.S. are traitors.

Labor are still trying to get the Coalition to support dangerous proposals to amend the Migration Act and allow the Home Affairs Minister to ban organisations and criminalise membership of those organisations. These changes are bad and the Greens stand with the community to oppose them.

Pictures from Gaza Strip are horrifying.

How come no-one is asking why Israel's IDF had to turn practically all of the Strip into rubble to defeat a relatively small Hamas army?

Hamas neither defeated nor destroyed (unlike Gaza Strip) & is now refusing to disarm.

War, or land clearance operation?
