Antisemitism Envoy admits she 'wasn't focused on' unequal protections in 'hate laws' seeking to protect only one religion. The bias isn't a bug it's a feature.

I beg of you 🙏 Please notice that all around the country, Greens MPs are speaking out - against the police violence, against Herzog, against the genocide.

+ they are being targeted by Zionists for it. It is not safe for them, but they are doing it for us, because it is right.

Fucking legends 💚

Just repeating what I found 4 days ago on the US DOJ website where the released part of the Epstein files reside.

Isaac Herzog very likely visited Epstein’s island with his mate Ehud Barak. Barak has been accused of child rape & brutal assault by victims.
A reminder that Isaac Herzog has been on Epstein’s island:

MORE police powers?? Get out Minns. And the TOURISM minister of all people declaring a ‘major event’ so police have more powers. Needs a no-confidence vote in this govt or we’ll all end up in jail

Same kid in other vids on the ground.
Massive bruise around the navel and right ribs, maybe leg.
Dark blonde, slim, white, black and white keffiyeh, white t-shirt (with picture - can’t make out), shorts.
We need to find this kid and make sure he got to hospital

The footage out of Sydney overnight is abhorrent.

Peaceful protesters set upon by an army of police, punches thrown at people with raised hands, people praying ripped from their knees.

Is this violence the social cohesion that Labor wanted?

It wasn’t impossible - the cops where there to incite violence. And Albanese (and everyone else) knew this would happen and he let it.

'Disunity is death' – but Labor's cowed caucus has a cost too
"Disunity is death" is a phrase often used in Labor circles, but it’s rarely discussed how government unity at all costs fragments society.
