The dishonesty around the use of Robodebt in prosecuting the government’s Freedom of Information secrecy drive is galling in the extreme. I set out some facts that deflate the specious claims being used as cover. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...
‘Absurdist leaps of logic’: Robodebt misused in FOI reforms
I am furious. Angry, certainly, about the federal government’s proposed freedom of information laws, which mock the very idea of transparency, but seething especially about the justification for them,...

If one is censured by a nation's Parliament for behaviour officially found to be "corrosive of trust in government", and is referred to an anti-corruption commission for misleading its Cabinet about the "crude and cruel" Robodebt scheme, how is one then eligible for said country's highest honour?

Chance is still learning to live in a house. She spent 10 years in the jungle and got abused.

Her comfort mechanism when I’m out or asleep is my shoe. She doesn’t chew it or destroy it. She just gently gets it and always has it beside her

She likes it here now ❤️

The LNP don't like their own words repeated back to them, which is why they're infuriated by this ad.

Which is also why you should share it.

We're hearing that Monash Vice Chancellor Sharon Pickering personally made the decision to cancel Khaled Sabsabi's exhibition after a phone call from Sarah Henderson.

Care to comment, @monashuniversity.bsky.social? It would behove you respond as your reputation implodes...

After seeing all of the suppression happening around Trump being a Russian asset named “Krasnov,” this felt appropriate. Spread it far and wide, people!

Australia is not like America. We won't tolerate the oligarchy of billionaires running our government, paying no tax and laughing all the way to the bank. Dutton mimics all of Trumps policies including to sack public servants and give the work to consultants at 3 times the cost.

Reminder: When you invest in the American people, the middle class expands, and the economy grows.

When you cut taxes on the rich, the rich get richer, and the gains don’t trickle down.

It’s that simple.

This is a good result for Albanese but let no one ever forget that the Bali 9 would have faced justice in Australia were it not for their betrayal by then AFP Cmr Mick Kelty (later disgraced when he alerted Ben Roberts-Smith he was being investigated for war crimes).

Still flabbergasted over the deputy Liberal party leader so casually saying supporting the ongoing genocide in Gaza was necessary to ensure an ongoing relationship with the United States. Essentially that the deaths of thousands of children is OK because it'll make the US happy.

David McBride continues telling the truth, this time from jail. Jail, he tells us, is dangerous and hard, but he expected that.

What is harder to understand is why Labor’s AG refuses to pardon him and why no senior ADF leader is in jail for war crimes.
