What’s with these ridiculous photos?!
AUS isn’t buying into Murdoch’s ridiculous attempts to portray support for Palestinians as some twisted form of terrorism

Facts are that Littleproud is an irrelevant, political joke and what is happening in Palestine is nothing short of genocide

Two years after 7 October and the kidnap of my parents, hate is in fashion. For all our sakes, we need compassion | Sharone Lifschitz So many were killed – yet on her release, my mother said ‘shalom’ to her captors. Let’s learn from that moment of grace, says Sharone Lifschitz, London-based film-maker and academic

This is the article that everyone should read about 7th October. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

Free radicals Is this neo-liberal evangelist changing the political and corporate landscape? <b>Royce Millar</b> and <b>Ben Schneiders</b> go inside the Institute of Public Affairs.

James Paterson, author of IPA 75 item policy agenda, was the precursor to Trump’s Project 2025.

Gina Rinehart and Rupert Murdoch main backers.

Tony Abbott adopted these policies in 2013. www.smh.com.au/politics/fed....

"The IPA has deep and long-standing ties to the conservative side of politics, particularly the Liberal Party, and has been highly influential in shaping its policy platforms"

"This direct financial pipeline [from fossil fuel producers] establishes the IPA not as an independent voice, but as a sophisticated public relations arm of the fossil fuel industry, a "noise-maker" paid to produce arguments that serve the minimiser agenda"

Fossil fuels fund the far right

Nice to see it evidenced

Explains the climate change denial

Trump at UN re-raised their opposition

MAGA and Christian dominionists have co-opted Christian nationalists

Hastie hastening toward an Au Christian dominion does suggest he is funded by Gina

Patterns...

How crooked are these people?

Maybe. And it is useful in senate hearings to ask questions you already know the answers to in order to have those answers recorded in Hansard

I don't know if that was what she was doing but that is how I would do it

Fuckers. Just fuckers

And who's funding Gina?

You're very welcome 🙂

An interesting read! Thank you.

More likely hatched by Bibi by the look of it. The "deal" is basically give us everything, you can just live with external colonial rule and ongoing apartheid and violent "settlement". Zero recognition of Palestinians.
I think Trump is hard pressed saying coherently what he's been told to say.

Any plan hatched by trump is going to be dodgy as fvck

Hope. Trump. An oxymoronic equation.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did!

I could honestly see them nominating Bibi.

Nothing is too absurd for the suit monkeys these days.

Will we hear soon that Albanese and Marles nominate Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize?????

Why are they trumpeting a rehashed plan that hasn’t worked before as a silver bullet? 🤔

Designed from top to bottom to be the biggest swindle by the body politic on the Australian people by its political class and the whole body politic

Career politicians, advisors, ex military - there’s an army of people taking their cut at the table
