This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

The sheer gall of Peter Dutton to accuse PM Albanese of being obsessed with culture wars. Albo’s incredulity at the dumb question posed by the journo said it all. Dutton’s aping of Trump is embarrassing. #abc730

The Opposition's decision to politicise the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and suggest our Minister for Foreign Affairs is an inappropriate person to represent Australia at the official commemoration is, frankly, sickening. They are beyond the pale.

This kind of behaviour from the leader of Australia’s most significant defence ally and strategic partner is DEEPLY concerning.
I checked. This is a genuine tweet by Eric Trump. He may think it's hilariously funny but it's lousy international diplomacy. #USPolitics

HOLIDAY DRINKING TIP: when someone says they’re not drinking/refusing the alcoholic beverage you’re offering, don’t ask why. offer a non-alcoholic option & move on.. because whatever the reason is, it’s almost always none of your business.

McKinsey has copped a $US650m fine & a guilty plea to obstruction of justice for helping Purdue Pharma "turbocharge" sales of OxyContin despite knowing it was lethally addictive & that Purdue had already pleaded guilty to crimes relating to its sale.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

Almost 12% of Australia's electricity supply now comes from roof top solar which saves 4 million homes and small businesses on their power bills. Nuclear means those systems would have to be switched off regularly if Australia was to move to inflexible nuclear power. #Pissedoffvoters
