4BC is out here with the hard-hitting investigations!

500 Australians are apparently at the UN climate summit in Brazil, and that's costing taxpayers $2 billion!

So for some quick maths that's $4 million per person for a two week trip to Brazil.

Unbelievable stuff! 😛

So now Australia will be making F35 fighter jet parts for Saudi Arabia. A country that Amnesty says ignores people’s basic human rights, restricts their freedoms and inflicts severe punishment. The regime also kills dissenters. No one even asked us.

Your choice is quite literally a bipartisan cabal of pedophilic drone-wielding genocidal oligarchs that suck each other off in depraved games of domination and blackmail, or, socialism and a habitable planet, and you're struggling with that choice?! Dafuq is wrong you?

What is it that people expect from deporting people?

Because it won't lower House prices or rents.
And it won't make food or energy cheaper.
There won't be more jobs and they certainly won't pay better.

At what point do you realise it is going to achieve nothing?

Infantino has to go. He’s sold the game to cozy up to Trump and whatever dictator pats him on the head. Somehow makes Blatter look like a man of courage.

As we’ve seen this month, the US finally has struck upon the notion that rape is bad, BUT only if it happens to a child and even then there’s still a lot of “pft, you’re an adult at 15.”

So, colour me not fucking surprised by this news
The United States Soccer Federation and the Portuguese Football Federation will soon confirm a match between their men’s teams to take place in Atlanta in March 2026.

The match could end an almost 12-year absence for Cristiano Ronaldo from playing football in the U.S.

Every state apart from Tas is pulling their weight with hospital expenditure. The Feds not wanting to pay for the additional demand on hospitals that the FEDS CREATE from underfunding their primary health, NDIS and aged care system responsibilities is pathetic bullshit www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

Health ministers are furious with a letter from the prime minister demanding they rein in spending if they want a public hospital funding deal honoured.

Was only thinking earlier today, that Casparij who has been happily outspoken on her support of the trans community, has been in flying form. Very much feels like when you don't have hate in your heart, your skin is clear and your crops can thrive - or whatever the kids say.
A reminder, Nikki Stanton called out transphobia in WOSO by name, and now she's lifting a trophy. You can stand for our trans siblings and win.

A smart govt - or even one with a PM who had a desire to do anything - would be using the LNP rabble to put in place every fucking thing they wanted.

Problem is Albanese doesn’t seem to want anything other than power.

I was reminded (as if I needed it) as to why I love the dub yesterday. Told Bunge I would be in Gosford in my Bunge NZ kit supporting her and she was so happy. Got Laura Pickett to sign my Pickett kit and she was really touched. And gave Izzy Gomez some light-hearted ribbing over her GF goal

Something bizarre about 14-16 year-olds being considered old enough to play in professional sports teams but not old enough to watch the competitions they might be playing in. The Asian Women's Champions League is on YouTube in Aus 🤷🏼‍♀️

One of the things that bothers me about transphobia as a word - see also islamophobia etc. - is that, no, no it's not a *phobia* it's not arachnophobia or pyrophobia or things that actually relate to someone being scared, it's hatred and bigotry that is often finessed into a grift.
From @karleighchardonnay.bsky.social at Outsports:

Jennifer Sey, who said the NWSL had “several males” has issued a $10,000 bounty to the next player to “speak out like Elizabeth Eddy.” An anonymous donor added $5000. Clay Travis said he’d double it.

NEAT.
