When you first heard me speak against this genocide, you heard my words as betrayal. But they were meant as love | Sarah Schwartz

Not speaking would go against everything I was taught to honour: the righteous among the nations – those who refused to be bystanders to injustice

Sarah Ferguson “but does it (Oz recognition of Palestine) do anything to achieve a peace agreement?”
Huh?
Well, it doesn’t help build a better mousetrap either.

Kenvue, the manufacturers of Tylenol, should sue the Trump administration.
Let Trump prove his claims in court.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Media (including the ABC) froth at the mouth about the heavily cropped photo with Dan Andrews in China.
In fact there were about 100 people in that photo including two ex New Zealand PM’s (John Keys & Helen Clark).
In Murdoch media free NZ the reaction was more subdued.

Labor promised that Australia would and should have its own Centre for Disease Control (CDC) because of Covid pandemic. Given that the CDC in US is probably going to be decimated by its new projected leader it’s past time Australia looked after itself.

Newsom: We can’t do things the way we’ve done. Let’s disabuse ourselves of that.

The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purpose…

They pushed the fiction that Victorians didn’t support him. A fiction busted when he won three elections in a row (one the “Danslide” election). Hope always defeats hate.
