It’s been two days since Angus Taylor started his attack on migrants - vaguely implying there are “bad” migrants out there who don’t subscribe to Australian values and are dangerous criminals. Has anyone seen any news reporting about this attack which gives migrant communities a voice? I haven’t.

The people who have constantly said it is hyperbolic to say Trump desires to destroy American democracy and Trump is a fascist and Trump is an authoritarianism, are not just wrong - obviously and painfully so - but have also helped Trump to legitimise his authoritarianism and assault on democracy.

- Pretti was shot 10 times after they took his gun
- He never "brandished" the gun, assaulted an agent
- They repeatedly pepper sprayed him at point blank range and beat him when he was down
- He was attempting to help a woman who an agent threw to the ground (battery)

The United States is now punishing close NATO allies because they oppose him invading and stealing Greenland. The response of the Australian Labor Party and the Coalition is silence, pretend it’s normal and build even more US bases here. They are endangering our national safety.
