Congrats to the brave whistleblowers and victim-survivors who have come forward. It's been many years coming.
First of many alleged perpetrators to face justice, hopefully.

So, not only has it surfaced that Dutton bought shares in the big 3 banks on 23 Jan 2009 - the day before Rudd Govt announced a $4billion Ruddbank plan

& sold them 10 days later for a likely profit..

He also sold his BHP shares 2 days before BHP slashed 3300 jobs & share prices slumped

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe, vulnerable, and alone.

But when we find ourselves surrounded by courageous people and brave institutions, we can more easily find courage inside ourselves.

This is the beauty of solidarity.

Fear of a Dutton govt is justified.

Dutton has proven over the years he has no problem punching down on minorities, persecuting immigrants & opposing policy that would benefit workers, education, health & the planet while enriching wealthy benefactors.

Neck chains were still being used on Aboriginal people in Western Australia in 1958. Witnesses at Halls Creek in the Kimberley reported seeing Aboriginal prisoners chained to a veranda post of the police station for weeks at a time.
How Western Australia's 'unofficial' use of neck chains on Indigenous people lasted 80 years
When the world found out about their history of use in 1905, neck chains were banned. But they were reinstated just a year later and used for another 52 years

This article is a bit of turd tinselling - but it shows that they are changing tack on Dutton. Again.

I saw a similar ad on tv tonight. The softer Dutton, the family man, the hard worker, the community guy who cares🙄

Please🤢

They’re running out of excuses for this angry & divisive fear mongerer.

I presume the rest of the world will now reject all foodstuffs exported from the US. Anything else would be utterly irresponsible.
The Food and Drug Administration is drawing up plans that would end most of its routine food safety inspections work, multiple federal health officials tell CBS News.

Trump is trying to strip the bargaining rights of roughly 1 million unionized federal workers.

He claims it's a matter of "national security." Rubbish.

Organized labor is standing up to Trump's authoritarian power grab.

Tyrants will do anything to crush dissent.

The Trump regime will round you up off the street and arrest you because you spoke your mind.

And federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.

It's fascism.
