No one in the burbs is blaming Albo. They are blaming nutters. This is massive overreach by media.

It’s a great big fat dog whistle. He cannot be held responsible nor the government for the actions of these two people. And the Libs when actually pushed can’t articulate how he could

Incredible the entire press gallery is actually buying the line (promulgated by Netanyahu!) that Albanese is personally to blame for the Bondi attack.

No one is actually explaining how firing academics for opposing Israel’s genocide would stop two people who never went to uni from this shooting.

Faaaark. 1. Show me one freestanding house in Sydney less than $1m and 2. Fuck right off and when you get there fuck off again. Imagine the sort of person that would spin what happened to talk about property prices. Unbelievable. Hope they take it down

Anyway, just a reminder that the median Sydney house price is roughly $1.5m so…
Pack it up folks, we’re done, the worst take has been found

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

"I was never on Epstein's plane."
~Donald J Trump, January 2024

That's odd, because according to the flight logs, he was on Jeffrey's plane SEVEN TIMES. And now some of the newly released Epstein photos are showing Trump on that plane.

What to believe, what to believe?

I'm an American who lives abroad. The best way to see the US is from the outside, especially when one can rationally, logically and intelligently discuss the issues with other such observers.

People love reminding me that I'm not allowed to post about American politics cause I'm not American.

Even ignoring the problems with that concept in general, my wife is American, their family all lives in America and one of my brothers lives in America. I'm allowed to care about their hell hole.

Donald Trump is on live TV addressing the shootings at Brown University and in Australia. He quickly shifted to bragging about all of the tariff based money pouring into the US “more than four times as much as ever before.“ The network cut away from it.

Rand Paul: "The president also said, 'Be careful Colombia, you could be next.' I mean, if we're gonna go and topple regime after regime in South America, there's no amount of money that could be printed to pay for that and I don't think lives should be lost without a vote by Congress."

My editing final exam was a simulation of covering a campus shooting for campus media while on lockdown.

I pointed out you should not share locations where people are hiding while a shooter is at large.

Watching this Brown coverage. How do professional media not know this?

Ads like that helped the Indiana legislators make their decision to NOT gerrymander the maps. These trump cabinet members either worked for Heritage or have close ties. Speaker Johnson, Russ Vought (OMB), Tom Hogan(czar), Brendan Carr (FCC), John Ratcliffe (CIA)

This is blackmail.

The U.S. is now at a point where the far right no longer feels it needs to cushion its blackmail demands inside softer language.

This ad from the far-right Heritage Foundation repeats threats made directly by Trump, Vance, and others: "Do exactly as Trump wants, or he will cut off all funding for your state."

Hopefully these types of threats, which underline that Trump is a dangerous dictator wanna-be, will backfire bigly.

"Where did that go?"
9/11 was much more effective in terms of shifting American values away from liberty and openness than is usually acknowledged. But I think that's the answer here.

I remember a time when we railed against countries who demanded papers be on you at all times. This nation was proud to be free to move about w/o documents. Where did that go? Where’s the outrage?
