Trump is spending $1 billion a day waging war on Iran. Meanwhile...

Trump's sons are investing in a drone company that could soon receive Pentagon contracts.

And of course Trump's Big Oil donors stand to gain windfall profits as the price of oil skyrockets.

War is a racket.

Government seeks power to temporarily ban some people from Australia Overseas visitors planning to travel from certain countries could be temporarily blocked from entering Australia in an attempt by the federal government to stop a wave of people overstaying their visa...

The hypocrisy is so dangerous. While signing us up for an illegal war & claiming it champions human rights of the Iranian people, the Albanese Gov is ramming thru new laws to ban people from #Iran with valid visas from entering Australia.

Across the broader Middle East, the U.S. operates roughly 19 military facilities and at least eight permanent bases, many clustered around the Gulf.
