Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Ordinary people who cheer the cutting of government jobs are like spoilt babies who think they control the world, b/c everything is provided for them.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.
They make sure we have clean water.
They protect us from financial fraud.
They provide healthcare to our communities.
They make our government actually work for people.
Do not forget this.

The Plymouth Brethren offered Mick $1 million to stay silent. He refused
The controversial church offered to settle with Mick Dover over his allegations of abuse, but only if he signed a non-disclosure agreement and agreed not to disparage them in any way.

Thanks Adelaide - out for Palestine and Gaza. Listen to our voices Labor. Sanction Israel’s war cabinet. End the arms trade. Open the borders to humanitarian food aid now. End these murders. History will judge - and none more harshly than Netanyahu.

U.S. taxpayers have spent $24 billion on Netanyahu's horrific war in Gaza. Instead of starving children, that money could pay for:
700,000 public housing units
500,000 low-income kids receiving health care
500,000 veterans receiving VA care
600,000 kids in Head Start
Combined.

Police hysterically shouting about 'concern' of 'major incident' while deciding to halt over 100k ppl on a bridge and turn them all around
#OurABC certainly got the memo though, 3/4 breaking headlines = 'police concerned' or traffic chaos. Headline? Bridge reopens after 90k ppl leave #Auspol

And while there were a lot of people there, the crowd was calm and very well behaved. Even when told to turn around and walk back to the city. Chanting and drums and leisurely walking pace. No agro.

A bit perplexed at the headlines about today’s #marchforhumanity saying “perilous” and “police feared the worst”. Surely the story is that, in spite of police fears, the march was peaceful, demonstrators full of goodwill and happily cooperated with police instructions to manage the huge turnout.
