No, Donald Trump does not deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, any more than the schoolyard gang leader deserves a thank you when he tells his minions to stop stealing your lunch money

What is wild about this story is that Deloitte has been allowed to keep 80% of the massive fees it charged for using ChatGPT to produce rubbish and passing it off as actual work. (One might add, why was a consulting firm purporting to give legal advice anyway, hmmm?)

America's last best defence against tyranny continues to be the gobsmacking laziness and stupidity of its dear leader

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Opinion | Peace settlements are always constructions of compromise. At the same time, history tells us settlements sewn on false premises are always seedbeds of future conflict, @marquelawyers.com.au writes.

Anyone can complain to the NSW Legal Services Commissioner about a solicitor, which may then be referred to the NSW Law Society to investigate. There is no ethical rule regulating social media use, but solicitors must not bring the profession into disrepute.

Nostalgically thinking back almost two years to a time when we were debating whether bombing a single hospital could be justified under international law or was per se a war crime.

This is pure fascism, directing the instruments of state security to target the regime's domestic political enemies by designating them terrorists. It's not a mask for anything, it's just raw state terror. If we lived in the US we would be terrified.

The most interesting thing said this week, by Albo at the UN:

“We can build a future where instead of children in Gaza dying in pain, living in fear, or being taught to hate – they can go to school”.

"Taught to hate" is a telling take on the living experience of the still-living children of Gaza.

So annoying when you have to hose down that leadership challenge speculation, if only you knew where it came from

Kind of suggests that if Antoinette Lattouf had only made her post (about starvation as a tool of war) funny, the ABC wouldn't have caved to the Israel lobby and sacked her.

We need to be careful about how we separate true hate speech from satirical speech. In America, it seems, differentiation is out of favour.

More than $2m for a panic-driven decision, which we've seen consistently in cases of silencing of workers who've spoken out against Israel's actions. Employers who have an attachment to principle, rather than perceived expediency, wouldn't make the same mistake.

The ABC has found out how much it must pay for unlawfully sacking Antoinette Lattouf. It works out to more than 5,000 Bluey toys. @daanysaeed.bsky.social breaks down the numbers.
