If Albanese has any spine he’ll impose tariffs on US goods in response, as China, Canada and Mexico have.

ALP - take heed

We surely did. It’s so disappointing - along with the NACC, refugees and many other conservative responses
Albanese’s Govt, and particularly Mark Dreyfus, have been underwhelming in their protection of whistleblowers. Their persecution of whistleblowers has had a chilling effect on whistleblowing across the country. Labor supporters expected much more. #auspol
Whistleblower persecutions. The cost of ignoring those who dare speak out. - Michael West
Whistleblowers are vital to protect our society against corruption and power abuse, yet they are often persecuted for speaking out.

Let’s join Canada and Denmark
Good call. Australia hasn’t formally announced the same for obvious reasons but many Aussies in their own way are doing the same. This👇🏻is my favourite new drink. Only Canadian & Scottish for me now.

He’s unhinged.
In honour of #InternationalWomensDay, let us all remember the words written in a national UK newspaper by Jeremy Clarkson, about #MeghanSussex, a woman he has never met, and who has never committed any crime.

A reminder of what Paul Keating had to say about Morrison and Labor's "policy" when it comes to China and #AUKUS. #SundayShot #auspol

Excellent information in this thread. Go well Fiona, it’s so good that you’re still here. You have so much to give
1/ A week ago I had a heart attack. Certainly wasn't on my 2025 bingo card but it seems years of healthy living means jack shit when you've got a hitherto unknown genetic predisposition to high cholesterol.
Luckily got to hospital just in time and had a stent put in. I should be okay with a daily

So tragic that she supports racism
With Jacinta Price under investigation for the potential - fourteenth! - abuse of taxpayer funds, it’s worth remembering that, with Peter Dutton’s blessing, she is the front of crooked group “Advance”, which is paid $$$ to divide and undermine our nation. theklaxon.com.au/anti-voice-g...
Anti-Voice group spreading "whale death" lies - The Klaxon
The group that ran the "No" campaign against the Indigenous Voice in now at the heart of an anti-offshore wind disinformation network.

At the same time axing The Drum which was a breath of fresh air
So sweet that the ABC keeps funding a program no one watches or has any influence or intelligence by getting on guests in what is now just an absolute parody of itself.

It’s so strange that the government isn’t using these facts to counteract Dutton. Only Senator Barbara Pocock gives this summary and now Prof Doherty
“Dutton’s plan to cull public servants isn’t just risky - it’s misguided.”

From Prof Doherty on dead bird place. #auspol #AusVotes25 #DontRiskDutton

Is this going to define us? Or will we one day acknowledge the genocide in Gaza
Not all Jews are Zionists, and most Zionists are not Jewish.

Zionism is a political ideology which upholds the western decision to drop an abusive apartheid ethnostate on top of a pre-existing civilization in historic Palestine & defend it by any amount of violence and tyranny necessary.

Zionism Is Strangling Free Speech In Australia

A Palestinian-Australian man has been criminally charged for voicing criticisms of Zionism during a protest against Israel's genocide in Gaza. He could spend months in prison.

If you want a final push watch Q&A tomorrow night. The Right in the ascendency
Yep, I've switched #ABC off too🍸
I started with Medias Network this Sunday morning, now watching #TheShot
#auspol
Didn't watch either the WA election coverage or Insiders.

I think I'm cured of my ABC news addiction! (They've helped immensely 😂🤣👏👏👏)

Report finds Voice referendum normalised racism and increased hostility toward First Nations People

The report also examined the ways in which racism and discrimination exist in Australia, as well as the impact of the October 2023 referendum.
