Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.
This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.
It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

Murder, kidnapping, theft, greed and arrogance - Trump’s war on Venezuela is all of this. The US is a brutal and dangerous ‘ally’ that Australia, and the rest of the world, needs to protect itself from

Welcome to 2026. Where the world order as we knew it seems to be over. What next? Taiwan? Greenland? Balkans?
The U.K. must double down on its relationship with the EU. For it is Europe alone that is now leader of the free world.

David Marr’s hatchet job of Chris Hedges last night was appalling. Marr often conducts interviews as though he thinks he’s in a Year 10 debating competition - he doesn’t actually care about what’s being said and nor does he want to fight injustice. A master class in complacency. Terrible.
Wow. David Marr's interview with Pulitzer-prize winning journalist Chris Hedges is extraordinary. And not in a good way.
