Surveillance serves no purpose and provides no deterrence if not analysed
Opinion | The International Association of Genocide Scholars is only the latest authority to describe Benjamin Netanyahu's actions in Gaza as genocide, writes Bernard Keane.
I've also emailed the Government asking that he have his citizenship revoked. #Auspol
The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.
. THIS is one of the biggest problems of our time . . . ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ .
"That is why I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it." Yes, there is a difference.

"yes, the state of Israel has a right to exist—but Israel’s regime of Jewish-Zionist privilege may not." foreignpolicy.com/2025/09/01/i...

Amazing
millionaire CEO Piotr Szczerek who snatched a hat that was meant for a child . Seriously..what a psychotic arsehole 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Mohamad Safa UN says it's genocide. HRC says it's genocide. PVA says it's genocide. ICJ says it's genocide. ICC says it's genocide. Anyone who knows anything about genocide says it's genocide. Everyone is lying except Israel who are committing genocide and ethnic cleansing.
Ross Gittins: "This month, Albanese will announce his target for 2035. Reintroducing a carbon price would also allow, and give credibility to, a much more ambitious target for 2035. And all it would take is a little political courage." www.smh.com.au/business/the...
And Jewish people complain about the violence against them.
Um ... if we have Aboriginal kids afraid to go to school in Melbourne after the violence yesterday, I'm wondering where Australia's Special Envoy to Combat Racism is right now 🤔
What an entitled slimeball prick
Anyone talking about housing affordability not mentioning the capital gains tax discount is not talking about housing affordability.
"Australia's Future Fund saw its holdings in Israeli weapons manufacturer, Elbit Systems, explode 469% in 2024 as Israel slaughtered tens of thousands of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip in actions widely described as a genocide." www.deepcutnews.com/p/exclusive-...
Love this
PM Albanese reminds the “tiny” groups of ppl marching against immigration yesterday that migrants bring a “great deal of benefit” to Australia. “This is an interview between someone called Karvelas & someone called Albanese. Not Smith & Jones.”🔥 #Abc
DESCRIPTION: self-described alpha male, wearing body armor, assault rifle, and wraparound sunglasses because he’s “afraid of nothing.”
There is something quietly wonderful in the fact that we can still laugh at this stuff. Thanks Dog. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
If Lley doesn’t discipline Senator Nampijinpa Price for supporting a Nazi rally she’ll lose any credibility she ever possessed. No negotiation with neo Nazis, no forgiveness, no excuses. Lley has to choose where she stands, for or against. There’s no middle ground. Nampijinpa Price has chosen.
Wow how adorable
Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Bridget McKenzie can’t bear to listen & ends up scolded after asking about social cohesion when she just voted against a motion that says Australia welcomes “different races, religions & views…” Penny Wong “You voted against that so don’t address me about social cohesion!”🔥 #QT
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
💯
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
Brilliant
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
Exactly what you would expect, 2 of our politicians, both Queensland rednecks with migrant ancestors, protesting Immigration
AS A REMINDER...RE-POST!
Farage. Guns on UK streets. This filthy man must never be UK Prime Minister. www.theguardian.com/politics/201...
"Australians have been offered no explanation about what Iran has to gain from attacking Jewish Australians or premises by remote control. Instead, Netanyahu revels in the credit for Australia’s—expulsion of the Iranian ambassador, sudden and unnecessary as it is." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/08...
Who forgot to put into the constitution that a convicted felon cannot hold the office of the president?
Looking nice & green
On why the media is suddenly covering Epstein: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/mafia-stat...
My reporting uncovered the existence of DoJ training videos instructing FBI personnel on how to flag Trump’s name in the Epstein files. I’m suing to get the videos under FOIA. substack.com/@muellershew...
Omg I’m freaking rolling 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂
Wow these look amazing. So many variations
This part. Everyone should be taking notes from @ivehaditpodcast.bsky.social’s @mizzwelch.bsky.social
The Government writes the word "Transparent" into its Radioactive Waste Plan then proceeds to hide it as @mrrexpatrick.bsky.social comes looking #auspol #whatsthescam michaelwest.com.au/government-h...
Jones: We have a presidential administration that has more outrage about the changing of the cracker barrel logo than they do about changing the policies that allow our children to be gunned down in school…
Right wing stupidity.
Worldwide celebrations not just America
Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use these laws to further exploit workers 5) Repeat Let's break the cycle and keep building back a powerful labor movement.
SHOCKED 😳 NOT😉
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
Lots of them 🌈
It's going to be the weirdest thing watching every news network trying to sell "a nation in mourning" while Kool & the Gang's "Celebration" becomes the new national anthem.
RFK Jr looks like he’s been sampling the diseases at the CDC
I’ve never witnessed this many people collectively hoping someone has shuffled off this mortal coil. It’s a real spectacle.
He's running the country exactly like he ran his many failed and bankrupted businesses. Wasting other people's money but making millions for himself, all while everything burns down around him. As long as he benefits, he's a happy chappy.
No one voted for this.
WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “If a Democratic president were doing any of these things you would be losing your mind.” 🎯
RFK Jr was not chosen to preside over US public health and science because he had any qualifications. He had a famous family name and Trump needed his endorsement and supporters. We saw it happen live in this call. That’s why we are here.
Seems an important task… www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Corporations socialize their losses and privatize their gains.
www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... Guns once more an issue
David Pocock: “Like many Australians I was frustrated & angry about many decisions government made that clearly weren’t evidence-based or in best interests of Australians. I’ve come to see why: a lack of transparency and broken lobbying rules.” www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/share/21450/...
The sitting President of the United States raped children and he’s in no danger of being held accountable for it.
Another super wealthy kook who is delusional
Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.
The damage this man has done is incalculable.

No notes
So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
Hey, mainstream media... Maybe more attention to stuff like this and less to Travis and Taylor's engagement?
The Saturday Paper
Excellent question.
The same headline @theonion.com used to run after every U.S. mass shooting.
Laura Tingle quoting Maria Ressa: "What I'm worried about is that, by design, we're killing democracy, and it takes so much more energy and effort to reclaim our rights because we've been insidiously manipulated," she says. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Disgraceful.
🔥 @mizzwelch.bsky.social : “It’s the complete moral collapse of the 🇺🇸 government… the cabinet meeting with 3.5 hours of superficial praise is so cringeworthy… he redecorated the Oval Office like Marie Antoinette and built himself a ballroom because he has zero intention of leaving…”
Linda Reynolds in pos of power with highly paid top silk, knows ins & outs of system, had husband sit in original trial during Higgins’ testimony, inappropriately requested Higgins’ transcript & insisted hubby didn’t tell her anything at home. A lying cow who milked the system.
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day
