Defence signs biggest ever contract with Palantir for department's 'Cyber Warfare Division' The one-year, $7.6 million contract for the Cyber Warfare Division brings Defence's spend to more than $26 million on contracts with the controversial Trump-linked company.

Defence has now spent over $26 million on Palantir since 2013. The latest: a $7.6 million contract for the “Cyber Warfare Divison”.

This Charlie Hebdo front page might need to be framed.

That's Fashingsdienstag... Happening now. Great fun, no prisoners, and those that deserve it, get it 😆

What an odd thing to say. /s

My Mum worked at the theatre in Melbourne where Tony Hancock did his last show before taking his own life.

My Dad was in the Loyola Musical Society, which performed Gilbert and Sullivan, with Harold from Neighbours.

I saw Bargearse (Lucky Grills, "Bluey") at the races in the early 90s 🤷

Wow.

Swiss commentator spits facts during Israel's bobsleigh race

“If Orwell wrote 1984 by following the threads of what politicians were sewing in 1948, then the ‘social cohesion’ our leaders are threading now are only forming a tighter net to trap us all,” writes @amyremeikis.bsky.social.

AUKUS is sinking and Labor responds by making up a $30 billion un-budgeted AUKUS announceable for the SA State election. This stuff is straying so far from reality.

It is literally cheaper to fly to China, stay in a 5-star hotel, get an MRI, and fly back than it is to get a scan in the US with insurance. Let that sink in.😲🤬🤬🤬😢

Tyler with "Haven Watch MN" explains one of the unfortunate consequences detainees experience after being traumatized by ICE (which I personally witnessed yesterday). It took several minutes for this man to trust the helpers and he was sobbing into the blanket as he walked away from the facility.

Dear @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social
If you're so committed to honouring #AnzacDay (and our war dead), did you ask Israeli President Isaac Herzog about the IDF bulldozing Allied war graves in the #GazaWarCemetery? These graves had been protected by a Palestinian family for over 100 years! #nswpol #auspol

I'll be appearing in person on Mon (16 Feb) 10.30am AEST before #AusPol Senate Committee re my submission (👆above) on the #AtlasNetwork & climate disinfo. Hearings live broadcast on Senate's YT channel. If anyone has the link pls post below!

I wasn't either but put it down to being overseas at the time. Never asked once I got back though either!

Jane Hume and Angus Taylor say immigration is “out of control”.

Again, if you are anti immigration you are anti economy.

If you are anti immigration you are anti culture.

If you are anti immigration you are anti small business.

They are losers not leaders.

Change my mind

Enjoy this little round up of Angus Taylor's many talents

(apologies for the aspect ratio, my converter refused to do anything better than this 😎)

Well it's certainly hot 😙

My brother Garry has dementia and is currently lost somewhere in the Chester area. If anyone should spot him please call the police on 999. We'd appreciate reposts. @shitchester.bsky.social

The property I'm renting has been sold & I have to vacate by March 5, but I haven't been able to find a new property. The prospect of being homeless at 80 terrifies me. I am focussing on the Mornington Peninsula, but am willing to consider just about anywhere. If you are aware of something DM me.

We need an independent inquiry into police conduct.

Sign the Petition Hold Chris Minns accountable for police brutality against Sydney protesters

I’ve got a petition going, hopefully we can get the numbers to force this. I was there. NSW Police were a disgrace! www.change.org/PublicApolog...

This is sickening and heartbreaking. Poor Courtney #4corners

This racial abuse and violent assault by NSW Police made the news in the Middle East and elsewhere across the globe, @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social.

You and your Zionist cronies must be feeling so very proud of yourselves. How you shame us all. #auspol #nswpol #PoliceViolence #PoliceRacism

Wild that a sitting member of Congress, a Republican no less, feels compelled to post this.

He didn't mention windows or if he drinks tea...
