"It comes as the federal government is under mounting pressure to respond to the US attacks on scientific funding." @caitlinecassidy.bsky.social
I'd be telling the US govt to FRO.

Australia's science agency sent questions from Trump administration asking if it is taking ‘appropriate measures’ against gender ideology
Other questions include whether science organisation receives funding from China and whether it is a climate or ‘environmental justice’ project

More jaw-dropping evidence today from former ABC Content boss Chris Oliver-Taylor. Apparently Nick Leys asked him an email exactly what policy Antoinette Lattouf had breached. Oliver-Taylor didn't email back. He still doesn't seem to be too clear on what she actually did wrong, even today.

For those disgusted by Dutton’s nuclear policy scam, but equally disgruntled by Labor’s ties to the big coal and gas companies, can we screw the duopoly by adding the #voteXbench hashtag to our posts over the coming months? Let’s make this a thing - screw the corruption from both sides.

No nation state is above criticism. You can criticise Israel's actions and policies without it being anti-semitic. It does not make Jewish people safer by conflating criticism of Israel with anti-semitism.

By allowing only one day for submissions regarding the proposed legislation it's obvious that there was a goal to minimise the number of submissions to be returned within the timeframe. I suspect 15000 is probably 14900 more than they expected... #auspol
