If you’re out and about protesting my USA friends please turn off your phone’s Face ID and thumbprint. Passcode only. Stay safe. ✌️- no kings. Love from Australia 🦘🇦🇺
If you are going to a protest this weekend, or you think there is any situation in which you might interact with law-enforcement: turn Face ID and thumbprint lock off. Passcode only. Cops can compel you to open your phone with face or thumb w/o a warrant. They can't compel you to enter a code.
You need to turn your phone's Face ID and thumbprint lock off ASAP.

Note this well. The ICE budget is not about controlling immigration. It is about controlling American citizens. It funds authoritarianism.
"Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” has $185bn for ICE, which is more than the annual military budgets of the UK and France combined. Wherever ICE raids trigger protests, Trump can send in the troops." My column.

Trump is coming for the ‘enemy within’
Sending the National Guard into LA is the administration’s clearest step yet towards authoritarianism

Great news
Congratulations, Omaha, Nebraska!
They elected their first black mayor, John Ewing Jr! A Democrat & former deputy chief of police.
Best part? It was a non-partisan race, but he ousted a 3rd term Republican.
Be careful with pendulums, Donald! They swing in both directions, bruh.

The Trump admin is dismantling Freedom of Information Act offices. Then the offices send out emails like, “Hello, the FOIA office has been placed on admin leave and is unable to respond to any emails.” The lengths this admin will go to ensure zero transparency with the American people is astounding.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

The drums of Labor dissent are beating. Compounded by new US tariffs, they’ll get louder if Albanese is returned on 3 May
Well before Donald Trump unveiled his country’s punitive tariffs, the graffiti was being figuratively scrawled on Labor’s walls, a reflection of the deep disquiet of party members about the continuation of the $368bn Aukus deal with the US.
The message has been simple. RETHINK AUKUS NOW.
