(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

As Trump's administration becomes ever more crazy and reckless, the Australian electorate needs to be constantly reminded that Peter Dutton is a massive Trump fan, and he would wreak havoc on our democracy in the same way.
Kristallnacht didn't take place until five years into the Hitler regime. Trump is openly proposing ethnic cleansing (a crime against humanity, and arguably genocide) within two weeks. US is now an outlaw state.

Trump believes that DEI means hiring people from minorities despite their incompetence.
It's actually the reverse.
DEI means hiring the person best qualified, even if they belong to a marginalized sector.. like racial or religious minorities, indigenous, the disabled, gays, or women.

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Dutton draws a link between antisemitic outrages and pro-Palestinian protest, without evidence.
The terroristic antisemitic crimes we see in Australia look to me like the work of neo-Nazi white-supremacist thugs, rather than misguided pro-Palestinian demonstrators.

The obvious question is who is paying the imbeciles to do the antisemitic crimes?
The imbeciles didn’t think of it themselves, they’re not even smart enough to keep their activities off Facebook.
