AUKUS is sinking and Labor responds by making up a $30 billion un-budgeted AUKUS announceable for the SA State election. This stuff is straying so far from reality.

$Billions of public funds to US imperialism and the military industrial complex. We would create more jobs by building a good society, public housing, transport, hospital, and education infrastructure.
AUKUS, a crazy capitulation to an autocratic, divided, and declining empire.

From Facebook
Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal is refusing to tell whether she disclosed she was a senior official of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, who changed its bio for Segal after The Klaxon exclusively revealed she remained one of its top office holders.

"As long as the international community continues to repeat this mantra of a two-state solution, while not taking any action that could enable Palestinian territorial contiguityโ€ฆwe are going to live in a totally unrealistic fantasy"

That's Australia's policy on Israel & Palestine:
cowardly fantasy.

Jon Kudelka (1972-2026) The last picture Jon Kudelka drew for The Saturday Paper was of a man sitting on the edge of a small cliff. Possibly it was the edge of a hole. The man was Jon, waiting for an idea. He was as scruffy and as charming as one of his drawings.

Editorial: Jon died on Sunday. It is unbearably sad that he is no longer here. The world is less just without him. Most of his cartoons are still relevant because too little has changed and a lot has become worse. satpa.pe/Pw6ClFd

Did you know that the United States is currently holding 3X as many people in immigrant detention as were held in Hitler's concentration camp system in 1939?

AND ICE IS BUILDING MORE DETENTION CENTERS

We're not reacting strongly enough.

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog, NSW Premier Chris Minns, AUS PM Anthony Albanese.

What I find most vomitous about Minns' & Albo's sycophancy towards Israel, is both men KNOW the facts of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza, its expanding illegal settlements in the West Bank, attacks in East Jerusalem, and its attacks on other nations. ๐Ÿ˜  #nswpol #auspol #IsraelTerrorState

Donald Trump is bragging that he's โ€œvery proudโ€ of this economy.

But his first year in office was marked by the weakest job growth in more than a decade outside of Covid.

Trump needs to stop denying reality and start fixing the economic pain he's caused.

Officer allowed men to pray before they were removed from rally, police say A group of Muslim men had already received police permission to worship during a Sydney protest before they were disrupted mid-prayer by officers, NSW Police Force confirms.

new police version of what police did to Muslims praying at Town Hall just dropped. This is why we never believe what police say, and why the dominant media culture of Police Say reporting is both grotesquely irresponsible and intentionally spreads disinformation.

Friday the 13th seems a fitting day for the Liberal Party to deliver Australia a horror show of Angus Taylor as opposition leader. Letโ€™s be clear why this happened. Itโ€™s because Sussan Ley was not Pauline Hanson enough. Horrible politics ahead thanks to the Liberals - strap in everyone โ˜น๏ธ #LibsSpill

Trumpโ€™s EPA repeals landmark climate finding in gift to โ€˜billionaire pollutersโ€™ Rollback of governmentโ€™s ability to limit climate-heating pollution will make families โ€˜sicker and less safeโ€™, environmental advocate says * US politics live โ€“ latest updates The Trump administration has revoked the bedrock scientific determination that gives the government the ability to regulate climate-heating pollution. The move was described as a gift to โ€œbillionaire pollutersโ€ at the expense of Americansโ€™ health. The endangerment finding, which states that the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere endangers public health and welfare, has since 2009 allowed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to limit heat-trapping pollution from vehicles, power plants and other industrial sources.

Epsteinโ€™s Ghost Is Calling All the Shots in Trumpโ€™s White House โ€” Vanity Fair Trump thought heโ€™d cut ties with Jeffrey Epstein years ago. But the deceased financierโ€™s shadow lurks across an administration struggling to outrun its own history.

Vanity Fair says Donald Trump canโ€™t escape the shadow of Jeffrey Epstein. Every question about the files = rage, attacks on reporters, deflection. If thereโ€™s nothing to hide, why the meltdowns?
And you canโ€™t outrun a paper trail.
