They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Former PM Scott Morrison secretly appointed himself to five ministries, botched vaccine rollout, left Aussies stranded overseas, oversaw Robodebt, and championed AUKUS without transparency.
Now he’s awarded the nation’s highest honour for “eminent service.”
