The RFK number seems like a massive failure of the media to explain what RFK is doing to our public health system and how catastrophic it will be

Take your time, we will still be here😉

I wonder if they are aiming for the old brick wall again, amazing

Unfortunately, not fresh news. We all said it allowed for the expansion of the fossil fuels and mineral extraction sectors. We all knew it and nothing the @greens.org.au or the #Independents did was ever going to change this fraudulent piece of legislation. It was a con from the start.

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔

The greatest threat Russia presents right now is that it gains more at the negotiation table than it has achieved on the battlefield.

Russia’s maximalist demands cannot be met with a minimalist response.

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour WATCH: Sen. Kelly says Trump administration ‘out of control’ after judge blocks Pentagon punishment

Senator Kelly happy that a federal judge block Kegbreath from stripping away his rank & pay, saying the Regime trampled over his 1st Amendment Rights. The Regime is trying to take away all of our rights.

Company linked to Angus Taylor offered ‘generous’ offset calculation after illegal land clearing, FoI letters reveal Exclusive: Experts say legislation is ‘broken’ when it’s cheaper for landholders to break the law than it is to apply for permits

Might just reshare this important story by @lisacox.bsky.social. Seems timely.

www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

‘On extinction path’: Land clearing laws failing native species An area of high-biodiversity land in NSW equivalent to four Sydney Harbours was cleared between 2016 and 2023, new research says.

“Every year the number of native animals listed as threatened in NSW goes up, and it’s no coincidence that happens at the same time the healthy habitat available to them goes down.” www.smh.com.au/environment/...

The crowd outside Flinders St station

Huge numbers out in Naarm/Melbourne right now for the second time this week to say the war criminal Isaac Herzog isn't welcome in our city! ✊🇵🇸

I asked Penny Wong today how hosting President Herzog in Australia when UN experts have found he incited genocide, when he has signed bombs used on Gaza, and right now Israel is stealing more Palestinian land, how could that ever be about peace?

Charts showing that the PBO estimates that in this current financial year the discount will cost $21.8bn in revenue forgone. The richest 1% will get 59% or $12.9bn of it:

John Howard brought in a tax policy that delivers 59% of the benefit to the richest 1%.

It truly is time to ditch the Capital Gains Tax 50% discount

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:

“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The ad aged. The internet remembers.

I asked why the Albanese Government hasn't rejected Trump's invitation to join his so-called "Board of Peace."

The UK, France, New Zealand, Germany & others have refused to join, because it is cooked.

Minister Wong says Labor is still considering the invite. What's to consider?

Underfunding is a common weapon our governments use to undermine projects and then claim that these projects are failing so they can scrap them.

Rep. Massie: "This is bigger than Watergate…This cover-up spans decades, and you are responsible for this portion of it."

The NT Greens have announced Suki Dorras-Walker, a former teacher who was 0.4% off winning Fannie Bay at the 2024 election, as their candidate for the Nightcliff by-election

Nightcliff will head to the polls after the resignation of Greens MLA Kat McNamara for health reasons

I went out before today's Herzog protest at Parliament and saw this massive police surveillance tower. This is completely unnecessary, and intimidating, at a peaceful protest. Police need to be protecting protesters, not snooping on them, or attacking them.

A spotted-tail quoll, alert and facing the camera. It is standing on a cut log.

Our local quoll showed up again and this time I actually managed to get a decent picture. This might be the best thing that has ever happened to me. #auswildlife #wildoz #marsupial #mammal

Sen. Coons to Howard Lutnick: “You said casually, ‘Well, I looked at my name and how it appeared in them, as does everyone.’ No, everyone isn't worried about their names being in the Epstein files.”

Meet Clavicular, the Looksmaxxing, Drugged-up Streamer Taking Over the Internet He lives in a roided-out hell of his own devising. Now we’re stuck in it with him.

"He wears lifts in his shoes, then positions boxes discreetly around his home so that he can stand on them and prevent new 'slays' from noticing his real height when he takes off his shoes." Some folks' idea of manliness.

Rep. Swalwell: “Will you apologize to the family of Renee Goode for being called a domestic terrorist?”

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons: “No.”

Swalwell: “Why not?”

Lyons: “I welcome the opportunity to speak to the family in private, but I'm not going to comment on any active investigation.”

Rep. Correa: “A number of cases of Americans being detained — what do we do with those people? What do we tell them?”

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons: “I don’t know of any particular case that you’re speaking of.”

Rep. Magaziner: “Is it proper procedure to aim pepper spray into the window of a moving vehicle?”

Commissioner of CBP Rodney Scott: “We try to avoid that.”
