Thrilling to see a (brave) ABC journalist scrutinising Trump’s corruption. Trump’s reaction shows you a nerve has been hit. Too often media shy away from these tough questions because of Trump’s bullying. We should all stand up for journalists willing to be watchdogs!

So, bumfluff Paterson is upset and having a sook because he doesn't know what happened at the Trump Rudd meeting in Florida in January. Actually, nunya mate. You're not in government and probably never will be.

I didn't go to Hawaii during bushfires. I didn't start robodebt, I didn't shit myself at Maccas or piss my pants at the footy. I didn't give myself 5 portfolios secretly, and I'm not a happy clapping supporter of Hillsong. Shit, I'm going to get a Knighthood.

So the Libs released their costings today. Deficits for a few years, bolstering the economy by sacking 41,000 people and raising taxes. And that was without a cent for nuclear, which Littleproud said they'd start from day 1. That should do the trick, eh?

Stayed indoors because of pretty constant rain this am. I should have turned the telly off. @abcnews had Speers, Norman, Kervalas, and Greber on a special edition of the 'Peter Dutton says' show. The sycophancy was palpable.

Revealed in the Adelaide chronicle and shared by @sedvitae.bsky.social exposes obscene difference between pension increases and politicians pay rises. Pensioners $4/fnight or 0.5%. Pollies $8000 or 3%, $310/fnight. Albanese and Chalmers need to do better.

Australians are waking up to the giant scam the gas industry has been operating:
🟠 Draining Australia of gas: exporting over 80% of Australia’s gas
🟠 Getting over half the gas they export royalty free
🟠 Never paying PRRT on the gas they export
🟠 Price gouging us for our own gas

The only people Dutton is working for are those who can afford to attend $25,000 a head fundraisers. If that’s not you, Dutton’s not on your side. It’s not rocket science!
Dutton brags that he bagged $500,000 when he ran away to Sydney and abandoned Dickson & Queensland during the pending cyclone. #auspol

If Trump refuses to continue supporting Ukraine, he is actually enabling Putin. One must ask oneself what is it the the Russian President has on him.

“Promising to reduce the size of the public service is a cheap political stunt.”
New research shows that sacking public servants actually costs the country a fortune, as public jobs are replaced by consultants, contractors and labour hire workers.

Cutting the public service saves nothing
Reducing the size of Australia’s public service is often characterised as a way to save the country money and make government departments more efficient.
