Trump vies for Bush’s crown for worst foreign policy decision in history The US president upended half a century of US foreign policy in an eight-minute video with another attempt at Middle Eastern regime change

And of course Albanese is All the Way with Racist Fartbag.

The USA column may be out of date but apart from that, this is a fairly clear snapshot of some historical facts ... so tell us again, @albomp.bsky.social, who has for decades been and continues to be a destabilizing force in the Middle East not to mention elsewhere? #auspol #IranMassacre2026

Carry on in the Courts - March 1 - Lucy Hamilton and Joel Jenkins
YouTube video by The Sunday Shot Carry on in the Courts - March 1 - Lucy Hamilton and Joel Jenkins

It's dramatically reduced the technical SNAFUs, but our newish strategy of pre-recording the #SundayShot isn't without drawbacks as the events of the last 15 hours demonstrate!

No mention of Iran but a great chat with Lucy & Joel + expert insights from Anne Twomey.

“You have got to be fucking kidding,” the Rest of the World has remarked, as the US entered yet another war in the Middle East without any clear motive, strategy, objectives, popular support, succession plan or exit arrangement, leading to suspicions it has no fucking idea what it is doing.

Extreme rhetoric in right-wing political circles deserves more attention The rhetoric in Australia's right-wing political circles is getting more extreme and the media should be paying more attention.

"The ABC contacted the office of Jillian Segal, Australia's antisemitism envoy, to see what her response to those comments was. It's been almost a week now, and there's been no reply."

WA subs base the only reason for AUKUS It is tempting to label the AUKUS project an exercise in self-delusion and self-denial. The number of commentators who believe the project’s core promise will actually be honoured – the transfer of Vi...

“AUKUS’s main game is the base that Australia intends to give to the US at HMAS Stirling in Western Australia.”

I don’t think this can be right. No-one is silly enough to pay $368B to the US to let them use our base. #auspol

AI is making bank for a handful of billionaires by wiping out hundreds of millions of jobs and sabotaging tax revenues. WiseTech is a symptom of this.

This means we need to start thinking early about radical solutions that put humans and the planet first.

Stunning and historic result in the Gordon and Denton parliamentary by-election in the UK.

The anti-genocide Green Party led by Zack Polanski has won the seat from Keir Starmer's governing Labour Party.

Nigel Farage's Reform UK and its odious candidate Matt Goodwin beaten.

Pressure mounts on Aussie council over $1.5 billion Trump Tower as residents have 'deep concerns' Construction could start as early as August, but there's one major hurdle standing in the developer's way.

Gold Coast Council has not received a development application for the Trump Tower. People are objecting via petition in response to Mayor Tom Tate's Mar-a-Lago visit & Donald Trump praise. History of the property developer David Young is publicly known. #qldpol au.news.yahoo.com/pressure-mou...

It’s great that Republicans on House Oversight established a precedent today for First Ladies to be deposed about Epstein. Can’t wait until Democrats take over the committee at the end of the year.
