- they're happy with LNP higher ed policy, or
- they are far more interested in just holding power than doing anything useful with it. #auspol

Why 👇
Why isn't non-Murdoch media asking Lachlan Murdoch every day why his Fox Network is Trump's chief propaganda unit? Why does he get to hide out in Australia while running cheerleading for the ruin of America's justice, health & rights systems?
ICE attacked peaceful protestors with tear gas and then Fox News characterised the violence as caused by protestors. Trump’s propaganda arm - Murdoch media - is a huge part of the MAGA problem.

Australia’s housing market isn’t a ladder, it’s a Ponzi scheme.
The new “first home buyer” plan just feeds the property lobby while renters queue in Bondi.
End negative gearing. Scrap CGT perks. Tax Airbnb rorts. Everyone knows how to fix it. No one’s got the guts.
