When this blows over I might have to share some of the emails I’ve received over the days which really make me wonder why I am the one accused of hatred. There is deep unresolved trauma being spewed by some of these people and we cannot consent to living according to their warped reality.

From OPEC to Ottawa, the World Learns to Hedge America Trump’s oil betrayals, tariff wars, and the quiet collapse of U.S. economic credibility

How Trump’s oil betrayals, #tariff tantrums, and #Venezuela fantasy taught the world to hedge the U.S. #uspolitics #authoritarianism #kakistocracy

Thanks Mary. I've learned more from your Substack articles than anything here on MSM.

Some of our decent Aussie journalists - very few and far between - could benefit from an 'insider' look through your lens about how things work inside America.

Also very touching, your brother's story.🫶

And maybe they could face the press and answer in depth questions on why they think a RC would help.

You can bet Diamonds aren't on that list.

Gina's dirty $15million, to wear the Hancock branding, like her cows in a saleyard, they all stood up for Aboriginal player Donnell Wallam

Fin Review headline saying Israel is offering to train Aussie police. Fascist shit

The fix is in, folks.

Maybe they could teach us how to murder 380,000 children under the age of five in a two year period as well?

As it so often happens, Bernie has the right of it. #auspol

The ABC is at it again,announcing high profile major businesses who are screeching for a RC into the Bondi tragedy. It's shocking bullying supported by political backers. Where's the reporting of the Jewish Council of Australia,representing over 100 high profile lawyers,academics,etc rejecting a RC

The Empire of Silence: How Epstein’s Network Was Built to Last From intelligence-backed blackmail to Trump’s unraveling lies, the firewall protecting America’s predators is cracking—and the public isn’t looking away.

#Epstein didn’t get rich by accident. He was built, funded, protected. And now, as survivors are gone and the #MAGA machine melts down, the cover-up is cracking. Trump’s name is in the files. #Congress is demanding answers. The firewall is breaking.

The irony from member for Longman.

'Named in honour of Irene Maud Longman, 1877–1964, the 1st woman elected to the Qld Parliament (1929–32) 3rd woman elected to any Parliament in Australia. Mrs Longman was actively involved in issues relating to family, women & mental health'.
Of course she was.🤢

The wheels are falling off.

'Now, the infighting has gone nuclear. Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino has gone AWOL and is reportedly considering resigning. FBI Director Kash Patel is threatening to quit. Stephen Miller called the court order to halt ICE raids “insurrection.”

Great article Mary.

Trump is saving himself
#TrumpFirst & #AmericaFirst In power for as long as he wants to lie about new threats.

Same with #Netanyahu saving himself from jail under 'emergency measures'.

Their limitless egotistical influence & literal 'get out of jail free' card. No opposition. None.

waiting for commentary on Trumps attack on Iran

the world is now waiting for retaliation on US bases across the region

we must distance ourselves from the erratic US international policies

Trump is a danger to world peace

'The global media sees it as it is: “Pentagon considers ripping up submarine pact with UK and Australia,” but Richard Marles downplayed concerns the United States will tank the hole-ridden agreement, insisting with his mumbling confidence it is a ‘natural step.’

I hope they're right.

Now we don't need personal opinions coming out of the blue from plebs. Same why they canned The Drum. Can't control what's said.

The best balanced show, respectful even with egotistical people like pop-up tart Parnel P. Others guests called out the bs.
Great moderators Ellen Fanning & Julia Baird.

If OTT gold on everything isn't enough, there's a bust of himself as a Roman emperor, another behind him & the ugliest penis shaped chandeliers.

And about to be outed [the enemy always has one up their sleeve] about Epstein files, we get penis envy, if authentic.

Meanwhile Bridget Gidget says the same, but turns the knife to say the Albanese government 'is one of the most anti-farming governments if the 'statement' is true'.

What a grock.
And Jane Hume puts her two bob's worth in, saying the same.

#LNP argue, by agreeing? Sounds like #Duttons policies.

It just shows the hopelessness of how they would govern.
The whole *hit show was all about winning than governing. At any cost.

Proving they're there for themselves only, individual power grabbing liars. Lie to each other & the entire population.

Mostly all working way above their pay grade.

BBC and Guardian editors held private meetings with Israeli General Exclusive: Former IDF chief of staff met with Britain’s top journalists to promote Israel’s war on Gaza, it can be revealed.

BBC & Guardian UK hold secret meetings with IDF. Is it the same here #ABCNews

Israeli 'Kohavi’s private meetings under scrutiny amid widespread public anger over the British media’s coverage of Israel’s genocide in Gaza'.

More by @owenjones.bsky.social www.declassifieduk.org/bbc-guardian...

The slaughter is accelerating, Israel's genocidal meat machine is going berserk and Western leaders describe Israel's behaviour as "possibly in breach of International Law". Possibly? Possibly? Instead of cutting off all ties with Netanyahu they rap him with a warm lettuce...

Prince Harry accused the Sun of printing story linking him to P Diddy out of revenge Exclusive: court documents reveal Harry claimed front page story and other articles had ‘hugely negative impact on his mental health and that of his wife and children’

What a filthy business Murdoch media indulges in.

Absolutely no substance to link Harry's name whatsoever. But the abuse never stops.

While sadly it just adds clicks to their vast empire built on lies, it has to stop.

Under #ACNC rules, a registered charity is not allowed to engage in activity "promoting or opposing a political party or a candidate". This is a flagrant violation by the PBCC on behalf of the #LNP and a shocking breach of trust by a major political party. #auspol

Same issue for blame game with 'small businesses can't compete', closing down by the 100'ds in rural towns, reducing community populations and therefore support for childcare, schools, TAFE training, hospitals, aged care, NDIS services.

All forms of corporate greed. Get big or get out mentality.

Isn't productivity just shutting out competitors with trickery & reduced service ie. Bunnings, Harvey Norman, Colesworth, Wesfarmers, Banks, Dairies, Meat producers etc & making CEO/Manager wages even more obscene?

All while expecting more from workers & ignoring customer complaints & yelling COL.

They run Alta-1 program here for 'disenfranchised youth'.

Have 2 brand new buses collecting few kids from school bus points later morning. Reports show barely any cost benefit. Programs I suspect run at church. Buses permanently there.
