Aussie Chick

Check out Rachel Maddow - she's been reporting on towns that have successfully fought this. Primarily seems lack of infrastructure (water, sewage, etc) has been an excuse local govn has used to push back.

Aussie that was worried going to Hawaii last July. The fact that you are on here following and commenting on this account wld concern me. I'd be worried since they've made declaring socials mandatory for visa.

Great to see Sean Ryan insert fact checks. I'd love to see a 2nd interview discussing democracy, mechanics of democratic governing & how each party has shaped today's political & social environment.

I saw an news story on MSNow saying the FBI had new tools this year (AI type) that helped them put the pieces together on the data they'd collected.

It's already compromised. Elon walked off with everything. That's what DOGE was really all about.

Covid protocols don’t even work on Covid. Sigh

Just jumped online and saw your post! Checking it out now - thanks!

Season 2 of Trump plays President is tired, repetitive and BORING

If it wasn't a reality show I'd turn off

This is interesting...

Run for Something Run for Something recruits and supports talented, passionate young leaders to run for state and local office - we’re building long-term power.

Watching #Maddow interview a representative from Run for Something.

The assistance they offer sounds amazing. If you're ready to role up your sleeves but don't know where to start, check it out.

Wish we had something like this in Australia.

Check out Mark Cubans post re consultancy

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

To be fair to Trump, Putin didn't "invade" Ukraine he conducted a "special military operation"

In other news, our local theatre is putting on a production of 1984 later this year

Scott Morrison’s unilateral decision to cancel Australia’s French submarine contract to pursue AUKUS will surely go down as one of the worst political decisions in Australia’s history #auspol

Trump was never going to help Zelenskyy or Ukraine. Ever. He irrationally hates the man and his country.

Luring Zelenskyy to the White House with hope when his real purpose was humiliation is utter evil. Pure evil.

Putting FAA technology in the hands of Starlink, a company owned by a guy that's willing to shut the service down if his man feelings get hurt or he disagrees with something, sounds like a really good idea... sigh.

If I was a qualified FAA person I’d go back but I’d only go back with a $100k sign on bonus and an air tight employment contract that protects me from an unreasonable work environment. Insurance against an incompetent, mean, flip flopping employer.

@abcnews or more importantly 4 Corners should do a story on who ABC Management chooses to take to court and who it chooses to payout…. You can start Lattouf and Lerhman.

I don't have anything against Jen Psaki, but I think it stinks Joy Reid, a career journalist who's spent years doing the hard yards honing her craft, was axed and a political operator turned political commentator stays. It does Joy, Jen and us, the audience, a disservice.

If this is Janet, her judgement is questionable in my opinion

It’s notable there doesn’t seem to be any real and palpable general animus from the audience toward Albo on #QandA tonight. Interesting.

Canning Joy Reid is a mistake. She is passionate, interesting, in-depth, clear, concise and JOYFUL. I didn’t always agree with her but I learn a lot in the process. The weekend crew are an echo chamber of general grievance.

When I tell people about how Russia uses fake news sites to spread it's disinformation into mainstream news they look at me like I'm crazy. I feel your pain!

So here's another layer of sh*t f*ckery to add to the mix of sh*t f*ckery raining down...

Republicans. Desperately urging others to save them while throwing said persons under the bus. Fucking cowards the lot of them.

This is what the prequel reality show for 1984 would look like isn’t it

Yeah! She should have just suggested they get the hell knocked out of them like Trump does when protesters yell out at his rallies…. Sigh.

When MAGA folk talk about the time when America was great they mean the time when their mom solved all their problems.

How are they going to teach it when they don’t even seem to know what it is

It’s a cult so most of them will never admit it.
