Climate-related mass-fatality events in Australia since 2000.
It's strange how these deaths weren't perceived as an horrific national tragedy. 🤔

Hear, hear.

Almost out of time
Invoke Article II SECTION 4 of the Constitution that details how to impeach Trump's entire Crime Regime for Treason, Bribery, and High Crimes, and Misdemeanors. It was written for a reason and is meant for the rare chance that Domestic Terrorists take over our government. DO IT NOW!

The insurrection act was always the end goal - I’ve been talking about this for months. He’s been trying to find a city that would push back enough to give him a (flimsy) excuse to do it

ICYMI — worthwhile analysis here. That above angle Trump used to claim Ross was hit was sped up to make the car look faster and hide that he was out of the way.

He wasn’t hit, he dropped his phone.

No wonder they won’t really investigate.

Is this what happened

Epstein has criminal video of Trump
Epstein gives/sells video to Putin
Putin blackmails Trump
Trump is now a Russian asset

This sequence would explain so much
reluctance to release files, policies that ruin the US dispupt/weaken NATO & offer opportunities for massive grifting

Jo is a former Adelaide Writers' Week director, and this article beautifully sums up her fury at the needless destruction of one of Australia's most world famous arts events.

Just saw this. What utter bullshit. The Israel lobby are devoted to destroying the livelihoods of anyone who does not share their love of genocide.

The SMH is a rag.

Not one person has lost their job or been forced to apologise for supporting Israel’s genocide.

You can support the mass murder of Muslims & you will never be in danger of losing your job in media or politics or the arts or business or education.

Suggest Israel are wrong, & you will be targeted.
