Viola Fletcher, Oldest Survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Dies at 111

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that weโ€™d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Australia doesn't have a gas shortage problem.

We have a gas export problem, and Australians are paying the price.

Great to see this issue being discussed in Parliament this week! #auspol

Senator Kelly & his fellow veterans are American patriots.

Their video simply reiterated the Uniform Code of Military Justice's requirement to only carry out LAWFUL orders.

Not surprising that Secretary Talk Show Host doesn't know that.

I couldn't care less about Pauline Hanson's latest antics.

The real concern is that Sussan Ley looks up to her as some kind of role model. Her entire term of leadership has been defined by trying to out-Pauline Pauline. #auspol

Axed AG tells how Labor really changes the Constitution Despite Laborโ€™s longstanding appetite for constitutional reform, former Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus now points to a different path: bold, nation-shaping change without the need for a referendum.

Andrew Fraser: โ€œThe notion of Constitution reform is not dead within the current Labor Government, but, even with a burst of enthusiasm from the 50th anniversary of the dismissal of Gough Whitlam, it wonโ€™t be controversial and it wonโ€™t be quick. Mark Dreyfus.โ€

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to โ€œright-sizeโ€ its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

Gambling ad ban would pass parliament with conscience vote, Labor MP says Macarthur MP Mike Freelander believes the multi-partisan support for restricting gambling advertising means the reforms will "get there" eventually.

72% of Australians support a total ban on gambling ads.

Itโ€™s been 881 days since the Murphy Report recommended that Parliament ban gambling advertising.

30% of Australian children aged 12 to 17 gamble - they lose nearly $20 million every year.

Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russiaโ€™s wish list, not something the US drafted. Heโ€™s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

Heโ€™s scrambling.

Gina Rinehart puts blowtorch on Rio Tinto, BHP over net zero spending Australiaโ€™s richest person has criticised her companyโ€™s joint venture partner, Rio Tinto, for torching shareholder value on the โ€œgreen altarโ€ of net zero.

So now itโ€™s clear who the Liberals are representing. Not the farmers, not business and tech but billionaire Gina Rinehart.

In Trumpโ€™s America, the shooting of a journalist is not a one-off. Press freedom itself is under attack A rubber bullet to Channel Nine reporter Lauren Tomasiโ€™s leg signals media freedom in the US is again under attack.

"the language once reserved for autocracies and failed states has begun to appear in assessments of the US.

Civicus, which tracks declining democracies, recently put the US on its watchlist, alongside Democratic Republic of Congo, Italy, Serbia and Pakistan."

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

Trumpโ€™s checklist for establishing fascist government (Part III) 'Federal officers appear to have deliberately targeted journalists who were doing nothing more than their job covering the news.'

From a spate of law enforcement actions against political opponents to increasing violence against journalists, Crikey continues the (long) process of ticking off Trump's fascism checklist.
