Do any journalists tell him that those numbers make no sense?

If the right to free speech does not include the right to oppose an active genocide using strong and unmitigated language, then there is no freedom of speech.

Trump’s sham Pardon Attorney, Ed Martin, announced a mass pardon of at least 77 people involved in efforts to overthrow the 2020 election results. This is another unprecedented and extremely dangerous use of the pardon power. Please watch and share. youtube.com/shorts/cHkqw...

Gough raised unemployment benefits to their highest level relative to poverty - then Fraser (and his treasurer John Howard) fucked it up as soon as they could.

Hawke/Keating repaired some of the damage... then Howard fucked it up for good

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

Study Technology, used by Athena school, has been criticised globally as pseudoscientific Scientology indoctrination that denies learning disabilities, suppresses critical thinking and lacks credible research backing.

We shouldn’t be bankrolling scientology with school funding.

How much money do you think a private school linked to Scientology should get from the NSW Government?

In 2022, the Athena school with only 55 students received total Government funding of over a million dollars.

Good news. This project will lower utility bills for Rhode Islanders if we can keep the fossil-fuel-backed Trump government out of the business of punishing clean, affordable energy long enough to let workers finish the job.

Firing on children, women and now diplomats. When a country crosses every red line and the world fails to act, it emboldens the worst regimes on the planet. This is a global disaster. Sanctions, weapons bans, action.
