A good captain can stop this Senator’s social cohesion ‘Titanic’ After the largest public rally with racist associations for migrants we have witnessed since the demise of the White Australia policy, Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price's comments really hurt.

This can all be avoided if mainstream journalists stop giving violent political extremists national doorstop media coverage. We just don’t want to see or hear this anymore, please. #auspol #racism #media

'Revolving door' between politics and lobbying rings transparency alarm bell Lobbying has become big business, with around 727 lobbyists registered in the national capital, more than three times the number of elected officials sitting in parliament.

This is how broken our lobbying laws are.

Every resources minister since 2001 went on to work for fossil fuel companies & 8 ex-ministers & senior advisers now lobby for gambling💰

It's time for complete reform of lobbying rules + independent watchdog.

That's right, Vikki Campion: the housing crisis wasn't caused by population growth and decades of underinvestment in housing.

It happened because "we didn't tear down koala habitats fast enough" ... 🙄

The festival has been going for 13 years and not felt the need to police and restrict attendees' language.

Why now?

What is it that's happened recently in the world that's brought this on? 🤔

Did they think all the speakers would suddenly this year of all years, erupt into paroxysms of racism?

While #insiders has Freedom Boy, the #SundayShot has @purplepingers.bsky.social! No comparison.

Tune in a 9am Sunday AEST at www.youtube.com/@TheSundayShot for a great chat with @michaelpascoe01.bsky.social, @chriswallace.bsky.social, @davemilbo.bsky.social and yours truly.

EXCLUSIVE: Segal's "husband" donation claims a sham - The Klaxon The nation’s Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal — who claims to have “had no involvement” in her husband’s “donations” — has been donating with him for decades.

🚨Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal's "husband" claims are a lie – the couple have been donating together for decades, investigations reveal.
The couple’s donations were even overseen and applauded by a sitting NSW Premier...

This weekend's #SundayShot sees Dr Scott Burchill making his debut plus Shot favourite @amyremeikis.bsky.social returns! And we interview @australiainstitute.org.au's @richarddenniss.bsky.social on his new essay, "Dead Centre: How political pragmatism is killing us".

Enjoy your Sunday ☕ with us.

Such a disingenuous, false narrative. Nobody is suggesting this. Nobody except Minns is talking about different groups running protests on the bridge every week. He's trying to create an antagonism to protesting in general with this crap.

This week on the #SundayShot we've got the digital experts on. @crikey.com.au's @cameronwilson.bsky.social and @drwaus.bsky.social's Lizzie O'Shea join us to discuss social media ban, conspiracy theories and more.

Worth tuning into at www.youtube.com/@TheSundayShot.

The good people of Kiama knew the allegations against him before the last election, yet still voted for him, weird.

Segal seeking to put uni's "under control of a political lobby" - The Klaxon Hundreds of university academics have called for the rejection of Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal’s report, labelling it an “unprecedented attack” on academic freedom.

🚨Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal is attempting to put universities "under control of a political lobby" in an "unprecedented attack", say more than 380 academics in explosive open letter.

Comes amid yet more formal calls for PM to "Sack Segal" following The Klaxon’s expose…

Cutting edge Aussie humour, worth checking out their other stuff on Utube like Aunty Donna's Coffee Cafe.

I’m confused: did a memo go out this week saying it’s finally okay for politicians and the press to be outraged that Israel is starving Palestinians?

If so, I didn’t see the memo. But I did see the evidence of this war crime back in late 2023.

Where are we at? Starving is bad, bombing is ok?

This week on the #SundayShot, @davemilbo.bsky.social & I are joined by excellent panellists @cherylkernot.bsky.social & @beneltham.bsky.social to look back at the 1st week of the 48th Parliament & examine the challenges facing our decimated university sector.

Murdoch is arguably the greatest catalyst for American fascism - and one of the most destructive figures in the history of the country - a truly wretched fascist .

In a week in which the decision in the Australian Climate case was handed down, the #SundayShot is joined by Grata Fund's Isabelle Reinecke and @roycerk2.bsky.social to discuss the desperately disappointing result.

“Segal must resign” – Top Muslim body - The Klaxon The Lebanese Muslim Association has called for the resignation of Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal following The Klaxon's expose Saturday.

🚨The Lebanese Muslim Association has called for Jillian Segal to resign - or the government sack her - following The Klaxon's expose.

To “pretend” the $50,000 to Advance “has no bearing on her role” was “insulting”.

Her "husband" excuse an "evasion"...

It’s almost like…

So apparently it’s no threat to anyone that Israel, Russia, North Korea have Nuclear Weapons but Iran developing a Nuclear weapon, despite no evidence, means they must be bombed. Does not make sense.

Live: Wong says Australia supports US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities Foreign Minister Penny Wong says the government supports the United States' strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities but says the next steps should be focused on dialogue and diplomacy. Follow live.

Every international legal expert: Israeli and US 'pre-emptive' strikes on Iran are a violation of international law and further undermine the so-called global rules-based order.

Penny Wong: We're fine with that. As long as it's our genocidal allies doing it. #auspol

The AUKUS Truth - The Shot AUKUS is falling apart, just as the world slips further into chaos under Trump’s America.  Weeks after being told to...

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social. 'The AUKUS Truth'.

When the world gives a rogue state permission to commit genocide and war crimes unchecked I guess the world shouldn’t be surprised when the rogue state is emboldened to start WW3.

Israel announces attack on Iran capital Tehran Explosions reported in capital Tehran as Israeli Defence Minister announces

Why does our foreign minister call Israel a friend and ally? How can we be associated with this?

@senatorwong.bsky.social

AUKUS was a platform for short-lived politicians to strut the world stage leaving future generations to pay for submarines that will never arrive.

Trump’s Fury at Gavin Newsom Backfires—and Reveals His Own Weakness The media has it wrong. Trump is not coming across as fearsome and strong. Instead, his watch-me-play-fascist-on-TV routine is self-evident overkill.

Awful: News orgs are credulously amplifying the ugly idea that sending troops into LA is good politics for Trump. This gives his lawless abuses of power the aura of conventional politics, obscuring how extraordinary and dangerous this moment truly is. 1/

AUKUS is a disaster for Australia. Trump has given us an out – let’s take it We were never likely to get any submarines, and all the deal does is tie us ever closer to an increasingly volatile and aggressive America.

"As we watch, Trump is marching the US down an authoritarian rabbit hole.
...it’s time to recognise that since the #AUKUS deal was announced, circumstances have changed dramatically. A grown-up country would respond accordingly." 🎯@emmashortis.bsky.social #auspol
