Volodymyr Zelenskyy has shown how you deal with bullies.
Australia now urgently needs leaders who can plan for a world in which America is not an ally but a threat.
And the first step is ditching AUKUS.

Our politicians are deer in the headlights of history. But Zelenskyy showed how to lead
Zelenskyy has ensured world leaders have nowhere to hide from Trump's threat to Western countries. Australia's leaders can't respond.

They’ve just … kidnapped the leader of a foreign nation (and his wife).
What the fuck do they think is going to happen next?

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.
Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.
This is why we must fix the system.
