We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011.

In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children.

This is how he did it (published 2021):

But definitely the rally at town hall is on. 5:30 for speakers, but plan to get there early in case of police tactics to delay you. Say from 4pm.

That dog was not ushered out of the way. It was kicked and kicked hard. That is a violent person who probably treats his wife and kids the same way. It's an indicator of a sociopath. Shouldn't carry a gun.

Albo was big on supporting Palestine back in the day. Traded that for 'pragmatism'. AKA trading principle for MSM likes. Not cool and not clever. May we remember all this shitfuckery at the ballot box. Labor were third on my ballot last year. They might be joining the Libs in 2028.

I'm offering this as a free protest sign statement for all willing placard-wavers. Appropriate for any number of protests but perhaps especially for the next week's tsunami of outrage. Please share, #Auspol #Gaza #Herzog

So apparently soon I could face up to TWO YEARS in jail for political art that says “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” if someone "takes offence". This is what Crisafulli is proposing in QLD. Acceptable speech is narrowing in real time. And it's fckn terrifying.

Big news! @bma.org.uk now advising doctors not to engage with Palantir's NHS data platform! They say there must be a "complete break from Palantir technologies in the NHS", due to the company's track record, e.g. with ICE, and the risk to patient trust. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

I expect the cops to be considerably meaner than the 2007 APEC meeting. The sky will no doubt be filled with choppers and drones and the streets filled with ACABs 😡

NEW: A baby held in immigration detention became so sick, she had to be rushed to a hospital in severe respiratory distress.

“She was at the brink of dying,” a lawyer told me.

But the girl didn’t go home after her 10-day hospital stay; instead, ICE put her and her mother back in lock up at Dilley.
Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention without prescribed medication, lawsuit says
The 18-month-old was sent back to a South Texas facility after days in intensive care with severe respiratory distress, according to a federal lawsuit.
