Interesting that the NY Times, ABC, Guardian and BBC are reporting this massacre of school children but not Albo's friends, FOX and SKY, to them it didn’t happen or if it did was not the sort of news the White House would publish .

We need to take care where we get our news.

Some of the Iranian negotiators are now dead. Does Trump need to negotiate with dead people to get what he wants??

TACO time already? Having killed Khamenei, with no evidence of regime collapse, Trump's best bet is to declare victory and go home. This interview suggests he might.
Alternative - keep exchanging attacks, running down intercepting stocks, more US and civilian casualties.

This is a bombshell: "the Pentagon wanted the company to allow for the collection and analysis of unclassified, commercial bulk data on Americans, such as geolocation and web browsing data"

This kind of agenda echoes the defunded Total Information Awareness effort, post-9/11

A cynic might ponder the skin colour of all the countries the US has been bombing back to the Stone Age since the 1950s

Albo is turning the temperature down by backing an illegal war against a sovereign state, ok, cool are we all feeling cool

Dearest people who don’t read or remember history:

The reason Iran is ruled by Ayatollahs now is because the U.S. overthrew the democratically-elected Iranian President in 1953 to help American oil interests.

Matt O’Sullivan, shadow assistant minister for “choice in childcare and early learning”, has opened the door to government-funded vouchers for nannies, au pairs or grandparents, while the party also considers a broader family tax policy that could look at income splitting, tax and superannuation incentives for families.

It’s 978 days since Peta Murphy called for a ban on betting ads. What happened to Labor’s pledge to respect parliament? | Josh Butler From gambling to ‘jobs for mates’ and reports left to gather dust, the teals have a shopping list of thorny topics to talk about * Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast A parliamentary report on parliamentary reports was handed down last month. Don’t let your eyes glaze over, it’s actually important. As politicians return to Canberra this week, community independent MPs have a shopping list of thorny topics for the government they want to talk about. Monique Ryan has a private member’s bill for the Centre for Disease Control to treat gambling harm as a public health issue; Sophie Scamps has a bill seeking to end so-called “jobs for mates”, requiring a “cooling-off period” between working in politics and being appointed to cushy government roles; while Kate Chaney plans to highlight the dozens and dozens of parliamentary committee reports which have been left gathering dust, with the government long overdue in responding to important findings and recommendations.

Anthony Albanese's transformation into Deputy Sheriff John Howard is complete In dismissing international law and supporting yet another Western military attack on a Middle Eastern country, Anthony Albanese has completed his transformation into John Howard.

Anthony Albanese used to despise John Howard. Now, with his support for the attack on Iran, he’s become a bad imitation of him, @keanebernard.bsky.social writes. www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/02/a...

New research by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis shows Japan is emerging as a major player in global gas trading, despite producing no liquefied natural gas of its own – and it’s all thanks to Australia.

Follow the money - Does Saudi Arabia (and Israel) have financial leverage over Trump? Is US military a mercenary outfit available for hire?

We now see you for what you are. The three war parties: One Nation, the Coalition and Labor who have never seen a US war they don't want to back in. Millions of Australians disagree with you. They want a government of principle, they want a government of peace.

Feds asked New Mexico to halt Jeffrey Epstein Zorro Ranch sex trafficking probe, records show Former AG says feds halted New Mexico’s Epstein inquiry without sharing promised evidence as state reopens Zorro Ranch investigation.

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.
