This is a must read. I have read Project 2026, posted about it and have been ignored. It is mainly about women's rights, civil rights and the LGBTQ+ community. Don't ignore it like most people did with Project 2025 until it was too late.
Project 2026 Declares Open War on Women’s Rights

Maybe they could teach us how to murder 380,000 children under the age of five in a two year period as well?

It is terrifying to see how fast America is becoming a new version of the Third Reich.
#Auspol must abandon the fantasy of “shared values” (please, let it be a fantasy 😬). We must disconnect as much as we can, especially Defence. Marles endangers us all by continuing entwined as if US is “normal.”

The US department of Homeland Security has posted imagining 100 million deportations. The US has a population around 340 million, including 42 million people in America born abroad, about a third of whom lack legal status. Many are citizens now. But there are about 235 million white Americans.

This is called "freedom" and it's pissing off the new Commissars who believe that artists must perform at the State's command
Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked
