Or as @richarddenniss.bsky.social put it in Dead Right:

"Neoliberalism has trained us to thank our sponsors, not our fellow citizens, for what we have collectively achieved."

My 14-year-old self would never have guessed that, in 50 years' time, all the world's music would be available at the click of a button, you'd navigate the globe by carrying a tiny computer around in your pocket, and the US President would post a video of himself shitting over American citizens.

We are not a monarchy. We are a constitutional democracy.

Let the world hear loud and clear today: America will never have a king.

More people marched today than at any time in the history of the United States.

For @nytimes.com, it was the 6th most important story.

They are making sure that those in power do not see what they do not want to see.

This is not what we were brought up to think of as journalism.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Powerful, grubby men using their connections to cover their abuse of a trafficked teenage girl.

After all the revelations, it's never "not" shocking.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

I interviewed Pulitzer Prize winning war correspondent Chris Hedges for an hour about the Western media betrayal of Palestinian journalists, the National Press Club of Australia, fascism and a violent empire in decline.

🇬🇧 👑 The Grifter in Chief, Chazo Saxe-Coburg Gotha & Slumlord Willie’s state benefits have just been increased by 45% to £132,000,000.00

Thankfully the Red Tories have managed to cover the extra Royal costs by hammering the poor, the old, the sick & disabled with brutal benefits cuts

The Grifter in Chief, Chazo Saxe-Coburg Gotha, has just been handed a 45% lift in his State Benefits, which is up to £132M a year…..He also qualifies for a free Helicopter Pass.

Not a bad gig for playing at dressy up, shaking people’s hands, and waving at the plebs.

Really strong story from @newcastleherald.bsky.social about the Hunter Region’s role sending F35 jet fighter weapons parts to Israel for its genocide in Gaza. The F35 regional hub in Williamtown isn’t for Australia’s defence, it’s a US controlled global weapons hub run by the US, for the US

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.

Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Trump Says Putin Should Be Allowed To Keep The Land He Has Seized In Ukraine

The president met with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, and later stated that the fighting should end and that territorial lines should be where the battle lines are today.
