Great. The Libs replaced one obnoxious right-wing fruit loop with another. They really have scraped the scum off the bottom of the barrel. Now they are digging out the rotten timbers. #auspol #whitlam

“All aboard the Trump train!” Coalition swaps out extreme right candidate for pro-gas MAGA man
The man chosen to replace a Liberal candidate dumped over extreme comments is an ardent Trump supporter and one of key figures behind a pro-gas industry campaign.

How this fuckwit has a job at all is staggering to me.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. advocated for the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine during a visit to West Texas today to comfort 2 families whose children died of the disease.
RFK says the "most effective way" to prevent measles spread is the MMR vaccine
Kennedy has a long record of sowing skepticism about vaccines.

Mark Carney needs to win. Economists are warning us that the US is going to slip into a recession. This will have impact on Canada and the global economy. With that and tariffs, we need an experienced person running things. Not a con man,sloganeering career politician. Please vote.

Dutton continues to refer to the LNP’s gas policy, but every indication is it didn’t exist until very recently, meaning its not ready.
Dutton has focused on big utes over big ideas, held back policies to ensure a small target and divided Australians to unite his party room.

We have Medicare in Australia, we have a free public hospital system we have subsidised drugs for those who need them, why would we want a systemic failure like they have in the US? The Liberal Party in Australia hates Medicare - never forget that.
Over 10 million Americans have said they could not afford medications or care within the last 3 months. Over 30 million have said they could not afford medical care if they needed it.
It’s clear we need a new system. We need Medicare for All.

What. A. Weekend. 💥 Since Friday, Team Ellie has been absolutely everywhere—roadsiding, doorknocking, riding bikes with banners, chatting over coffees, and sharing laughs at pub nights.
We’re showing what community politics really looks like—and this is only the beginning.
