This is the grossest excusing of genocide you will read in a long while.
While bombing raids may be a distant and difficult concept for populations in relatively safe corners of the world to comprehend, the scenes of children jostling and screaming in fear and desperation for whatever morsels of food are available have hit home.

Are you paying any attention to what sociopath Trump is trying to do to rest of world, @albomp.bsky.social?

USA are not our ally, or our friend. Under Trump, they are authoritarian conquerors who want to impose their far-right fascist views on the rest of us.

@timdunlop.bsky.social latest piece definitely worth reading as we creep closer to Federal election. Are we going to get serious policy announcements or more cute phrases? We know Dutton is policy-free zone, so we need Labor & crossbench to step into that space.

Are we not going to talk about the fact that Dutton simply lies, even about stuff easily verified (citizenship & voting)?

He will not honour the commitment to #Medicare, just as Abbott reneged on all of his election claims. It is in their DNA to lie.

@albomp.bsky.social needs to wake up to the reality of the new Trump-USA. They are not allies in any historical sense of the word: we cannot depend on Trump in any crisis. We MUST get out of #AUKUS now & focus on Australia's needs, not Trump's.
