UPDATE: Our ad has been pulled. While the Daily Telegraph and Herald Sun talk about freedom of speech all the time, they've decided that they won't be proceeding with our ad tomorrow.

We still hope they will run our ad at a later date, because we need to broadcast the message, end the genocide!

Even allowing for a 4:1 ratio in capacity factor, rooftop solar is delivering as much electricity as Dutton's seven nuclear stations would have done, right now and at a tiny fraction of the cost.

President Trump -- who refused to call Gov. Tim Walz to express his condolences after the assassination of the Minnesota House Speaker because he thought it would only "waste time" -- says that Walz should've called *him* to ask that flags be lowered.
Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin?

TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

DOJ has moved to drop the charges against still another person accused of assaulting law police during Trump's D.C. surge.

This case involved a man who allegedly tried to flee from ICE agents, causing one of them to scrape his knee.

(The normal number of cases DOJ drops like this is near zero.)

NOTICE that Trump is calling the drugs allegedly smuggled by "Venezuelan members of Tren de Aragua" ARE WEAPONS. This is so obviously pretext to justify internment and deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
Another US strike on a vessel alleged to be smuggling drugs in the Caribbean.

Once again, the specific entity and individuals targeted are not identified—simply labelled as "terrorists." 1/n

Stephen Miller was directly involved in one of the largest acts of organized domestic political violence the United States has seen in modern times, the Jan 6 insurrection. Any news org that doesn't make this fact central is helping Miller deceive its customers.
Stephen Miller: “We are gonna channel all the anger we have over the organized campaign to led to this assassination to uproot & dismantle these terrorist networks … we are going to use every resource we have at the DOJ, Homeland Security & throughout this govt to dismantle & destroy these networks"

Not lost on me that ranting about Soros funding media is not just a classic anti-Jewish conspiracy, it’s also the same tactic that Orban used.
This is *exactly* step one of the same strategy Russia and Hungary used to criminalize dissent.

After that, they began to label nonprofit and political organizations as foreign agents, then started to restrict and ban on that basis.

To state the obvious, I was not paid by the Ford Foundation or Open Society to write the column, which is what Vance is alleging and he's saying he is going after those groups. Not the first time he's spouted conspiracy theories involving the Soroses to deflect criticism: apnews.com/article/jd-v...

When I was getting death threats from Nazis in 2017-2018, related to Unite the Right, it literally didn’t matter. When I got threats from police w/in 2 hrs of where I lived, saying they could come see me anytime, I sent screenshots to their departments, their local govs. Nothing happened.
When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school.

Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families?

My own colleagues are silent.

Something weird about these early 40s white men insisting we ditch net zero and fuck the consequences.

The pig-headed, nihilistic disregard almost made sense for Abbott (67), Joyce (58), Morrison (57).

But Hastie/Duniam are 42. Millennials who might've led the Coalition into the 21st century...
#BREAKING 🚨 Andrew Hastie has threatened to quit the opposition frontbench if the Coalition does not end its support for net zero

Speaking to the ABC, Hastie says he would think about quitting – or be sacked by Sussan Ley – because he wants the climate target scrapped

Are these the same Brethren that the Morrison government awarded massive contracts to during Covid?
This tonight on 4Corners is important viewing - it is my view that the Plymouth Brethren should be investigated for their oppressive practices to members and those who leave the church, and for whether it’s appropriate they are tax exempt and have charity status

This is not a photo from Palestinian Nakba 1948. This is a photo from Palestinian Nakba 2025 with all the color taken out. A chilling reminder that history repeats... It was never about “self-defense”. It was always about ethnic cleansing.
