That's more than 1,100 jobs lost at the CSIRO over the last two years.
"Combined, the staff association estimates that equates to cutting the agency’s size by a third."
This is more cuts to the CSIRO than was attempted by the Abbott government.

Killing 80 people without a trial seems like a mass murder. Trump and military leaders participating in these illegal attacks should be arrested immediately. Republican senators and Congress need to get this done.

What does Trump want with boat strikes near Venezuela and Caribbean?
The US has justified its air and naval campaign as necessary to fight drug smuggling into the US.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”
SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.
That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.
For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.
While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

Charlotte was once a place of slow, easy mornings, coffee cups clinking in cozy cafés, jazz drifting through open doors on Tryon Street, families stepping onto the light rail with strollers and soccer bags.

An acquaintance pointed out on our fall return to Sarasota, Florida, that a major change is that all bumper stickers have disappeared.
In the spring, plenty of bumper stickers advocated Trump. Now, they are all gone.

Everyday Americans get nickel and dimed while the rich dodge taxes.
They struggle to get by while the wealth of the 1% skyrockets.
They see their voices drowned out while the well-connected avoid accountability.
There are two sets of rules in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
