So QAnon spent years spreading conspiracy theories that the government was run by a cabal of elite pedophiles and it turns out they supported the actual cabal of elite pedophiles to get into power and destroy democracy.

The Government’s invitation for President Herzog to visit must be rescinded - it will cause immense distress to many who have lost relatives in Gaza. This is a time to build social cohesion not blow it out of the water ! 💦

It would be a massacre if the Democrats were spiritually led by Omar and not Schumer.

It would be so easy to do this, and yet. And yet. They are still a center right party in a country that is incredibly pissed off and radicalized.
I don’t think Democrats are walking into the landslide victory they think they are come midterms.

I think they’re radicalizing/immobilizing more people than they realize.

When I wrote about Project 2025 in April 2024, literally all I was asked by mainstream Australia media was to “prove” the link to Trump. Very few took the answer seriously. But *all* of this was observable and *could have been planned for* by allies of the United States.

On Jan. 23, Wael died from complications related to Pompe disease, a rare genetic condition.

ICE has now denied Maher’s request to attend his funeral, his attorney says.

You’d think an attempted bombing of an event with 2,000 attendees on the shores of mainland Australia would get a breaking news alert and statement from the Prime Minister of the country.

But it’s blackfullas and people who associate with them, that’s fine.

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day — a solemn day of respect and mourning for Jewish people.

So why are First Nations people told to “move on” and to “celebrate” when they ask for the same respect?

Recognising 26 January as a day of invasion is not about division, but about respect, honesty and connection.

It is about acknowledging the truth that sovereignty was never ceded.

This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

If you’re heading to any of the Invasion Day Rallies around the country today, firstly Nayri Nina-tu, thank you.
But secondly and more importantly stay safe. We have credible reports that the March for Australia mob are planning to disrupt our march’s and rallies. I don’t like their chances. ✊🏾🖤💛❤️
