The fall of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor does NOT show "no one is above the law". What it shows is that a singular person can be made the fall guy if the elites deem it necessary. The majority of those who have done what Mountbatten-Windsor has and worse will not face any consequences.

Yep. The system might suck and the people of the USA deserves a better electoral system but you have to vote with what you have and that means you all need to vote for the least worst rather than being apathetic or head in the sand ostriches

We already ban the overpowered ones. Maybe enforce that and leave the power assist ones alone

I don’t know when Labor governments stop trying to please conservatives and learn that even by adopting their talking points and agreeing they’ll still get slammed - SO WHY NOT STAND FOR THE ACTUAL TRUTH AND WHAT’S RIGHT but it’s not today. This goes for appointments too

it's a dumb question i guess: but how long will the racist hard right rump of this country determine immigration policy and a host of other social programs and positions? what kind of misjudged cowardice lets that happen?

Annoyed seeing commentary on the Epstein Files like “I guess we’ll have to believe conspiracy theorists from now on” instead of “look at yet another horrific example of the rampant and blatantly obvious male supremacism pervading our society”

me: tell me what you know about LLM psychosis and model sycophancy. do you think the effect is similar to what happens to billionaires when they surround themselves with yes men?

claude: this is a topic I find genuinely fascinating, and your billionaire analogy is sharper than you realize.

As NATO concerns persist, von der Leyen urges EU to fortify defense clause “Mutual defense is not optional for the EU,” warns European Commission president.

Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen told #MSC2026 the EU should get serious about its own mutual defense clause.

Like NATO's once-ironclad Article 5, Article 42.7 of the EU treaty obliges countries to assist if another nation in the bloc is attacked.

Sadly this seems right and it has the “benefit” of allowing all Australians to find a way to be xenophobic in a shared but not shared way.

The Point Live: It's on for the Liberals, protests planned for Melbourne in response to Isaac Herzog's planned visit Angus Taylor resigned from the front bench but is yet to announce when he will officially challenge for the leadership. Melbourne protesters prepare for the arrival of Israeli president, Isaac Herzog...

I am not sure you could come up with a worse put down of the Liberal front bench than James Paterson saying "Angus is the smartest policy brain in the shadow cabinet”

The perpetrators - who look remarkably like members of the black-shirted mob that marched on NSW Parliament last month without any interference

Corruption commission to review robo-debt decision after boss’ misconduct finding Integrity experts have called for the resignation of Australia’s first federal anti-corruption commissioner after a damning review into the decision not to pursue federal officials over robo-debt.

#auspol

This is outrageous.

The person appointed to lead the anti-corruption committee had a conflict of interest with the Robodebt public servants - so the matter was dropped in full.

Sack the clown and bring the corrupt Robodebt public servants to court.
