One major pillar of the Trump&co coup. Decimate the military so that it and the citizens it protects could not fight back. External and internal threats. Done ✔️
He and his people have decimated our ability to adequately defend this country. One well-placed strike and our country, possibly the whole world, is over in a couple of hours.

Without govt, there’s no governing. Trump’s purpose - remove US govt, permanently. Evidently he & his tech bros did rig 2024 swing state results to ensure 1. the win 2. permanency via unregulated AI growth. Now ungoverned, the US is unable to reverse from this, even if the will is there.
Giving ZERO fucks about working class Americans, the 2025 Trump-led Republican congress was the least productive congress since 1989. In US history, this is the first congress to relinquish all power to the cruel and sadistic proclivities of a fascist authoritarian pedophile. 👇

After Marcelo Gomes da Silva was arrested by ICE on his way to volleyball practice in Milford, he made a promise to the men he shared a cell with: He’d be a voice for immigrants unfairly detained.

It’d be reassuring to know we have highly organised competency at the helm instead of grandstanding Morrison level AUKUS chaos. These things ARE actually carrying nukes. And docking in Perth 😳
The former head of nuclear policy at the UK MoD, Rear Admiral Philip Mathias, calls out the “catastrophic” state of British nuclear submarine procurement & sustainment and calls for #AUKUS to be “cancelled now”. What’s your response Richard Marles? #auspol
UK 'incapable' of maintaining nuclear submarines as expert issues brutal verdict
Rear Admiral Philip Mathias has criticised the state of the Royal Navy's naval submarine programme, labelling it as "not fit for purpose."

Great article, noting parallels with evolution of Aus unions, political parties and politics. Our ALP (Aus’s largest party) also its own out of touch worst enemy with self absorbed limousine leadership. Despite gaping diffs with the US the same issues risk Aus reaching the same failed state fate.

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.
Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.
We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

China does not need to go to a physical war. It is already winning by simply being better than the rest. And it’s not hard - the West sets a very low bar. It seems there’s nothing the West does better (USA,UK, Aus + more). Not even its judicial processes (now political) or human rights.
