Meta, Reddit and Google comply with Homeland Security requests for anti-ICE user information.
Travellers & tourists should be aware the #Hilton hotel chain just fired a franchisee who wouldn't rent a room to ICE thugs. If you stay at a Hilton/Doubletree (or affiliates) you might be next door to a trigger-happy goon squad, or supporting a brand that's made a choice to stand with them.

Let's break ABCTV's ratings at 7.30 tonight (or on iView). Don't miss Lorin Clarke's doco about John Clarke, which is, as he was, very clever, reflective, insightful, nuanced, surprising, funny and entirely necessary. #ClarkeFamilyProject
'World Literacy Foundation' issued NZ Press Release with at least half non-existent AI-invented titles; widely printed. Founded in Melbourne & 'reaching 115 million people', its website could be clearer on staff, board, offices. An inquiring reporter might find an interesting story here. #AIslop
The world sees Australia: an antisemitic atrocity; a zombie ex-PM lurches out of his Jason recliner to cancel out his previous, one-off moral stance for better gun laws; dull-witted racists plan to assemble, fomented by neo-Nazis & whingeing egotists Hanson & Joyce. All the would-be dividers.
THERE'S A REASON WHY REPUBLICANS KEEP LOSING IN ELECTION AFTER ELECTION: IT'S BECAUSE THEIR POLICIES FUCKING SUCK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO MY TREMENDOUS POST IN WHICH I DELVE INTO YESTERDAY'S DEM VICTORIES. LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/4pvACla
Please check out the website saveslv.com and/or follow @save.our.library on Instagram. A series of rolling scandals, so-called 'restructuring', threats to staff & bizarre appointments have boiled over into a full-blown crisis threatening the whole purpose & future of the State Library of Victoria.
Why has the State Library given over building space & marketing messages to 'entrepreneurs' using it to lobby for their own for-profit private business funding, from inside our premier public Library? What on earth does this have to do with the core functions of a State Library now in crisis?
#Victorians! Our State Library is being trashed by a series of executives with no experience or understanding of public collections. Many hired as 'temps' without full process, who then caused scandals & exodus of specialist & librarian staff: a full wreck looms. www.theage.com.au/national/vic...
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.
Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.
Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.
I've never had Spotify, and I probably never will.
Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!
Union members at the ABC and across the media industry stand with John Lyons and reject the US President’s unfounded attacks on our colleague.

After Jacinta Price jumped from the National to Liberal party room, I am enjoying watching David Littleproud on 7:30 keep saying, "Price is not my problem, she's Ley's problem, ask Sussan."
And more from Newsom.

Six months ago, the US economy was stable.
NATO was united.
Our personal data was secure.
And our military bases weren’t under attack.
Maybe Jake Tapper could write a book about that.
“Peter Dutton’s passion and commitment in condemning anti-Semitism is laudable, yet a similar attitude is lacking in relation to Indigenous disadvantage. This is not the approach of a strong leader," writes John Hewson. "This is the work of a divisive opportunist.”
It’s an important day for journalists writing about Dutton’s nuclear costings 💩. Today is the day you show if you’re a:
👉🏻propagandist for fossil fuels
👉🏻a stenographer who platforms manipulative lies unchecked, or
👉🏻Ideally, a watchdog who fact-checks and holds power to account.
🧐 Which will it be?
Narrator: 23 is indeed bigger than 2. Numbers don’t lie, Dutton! Please share👇🏻
