BREAKING:

Israel is raining bombs on Gaza right now.

31 Palestinian civilians killed since dawn today.

Families burned alive in tents.
Homes turned into graves.
Civilians targeted in the streets.

The “ceasefire” is a lie.

Israel is erasing Gaza — family by family.

Not just any journalist, she won the goddamn Triple Crown of broadcast journalism (an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Murrow) in 2024 for her reporting on Gaza.

This is textbook censorship of the highest degree

ICE has killed 9 folks in the first 26 days of ‘26:

• Alex Pretti
• Renee Good
• Keith Porter
• Heber Sanchaz Domínguez
• Victor Manuel Diaz
• Parady La
• Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz
• Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres
• Geraldo Lunas Campos

They all deserve justice. And for us to remember their names.

The two great tragedies of the 2020-21 COVID stimulus were that it pumped house prices instead of flowing into lasting and sustainable infrastructure and resiliency projects; and that it caused the neoliberal BAU beneficiaries and public debt purity culture zealots to double down for another decade.

The PM said of his taxpayer-funded Te Reo lessons: “They have got a PM who is actually keen to learn Te Reo..."   Which is a good thing. But he also said, “In the real world … people who want to learn Te Reo … pay for it themselves”

Former PM Sir Bill English to head review of Kāinga Ora The government has confirmed an independent review into Kāinga Ora, the government's social housing landlord, to be carried out by former prime minister Sir Bill English.

This is such a cynical move, Bill English's government oversaw the biggest sell-off of state housing in history. He is on record saying he doesn't believe the state has any role in housing people. You couldn't find someone less qualified if you tried.
