Yeah. Wonder why Starmer didn’t call Levinson 2?

Wonder why Albanese didn’t call Royal Commission into media concentration, disinformation in 2022 when he was given opportunity.

Makes one think they both have been corrupted by the media Barrons. Doing a Trump. #auspol.

The USA sent a property developer + Jared Kushner to negotiate the Israel/Gaza peace deal. This will not end well for the people of Gaza. Don’t be distracted by this US/Israeli propaganda. Seriously, a property developer + Jared Kushner + neither of them give shit about Palestinians #USpol #auspol

Any push to round up 'terrorists' who are 'eroding our countries social fabric by promoting hatred, fear and humiliation' that doesn't start with clapping the handcuffs on Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch is just faux rubbish.

As long as we get sausages in bread every three or four years, Australians are gonna sleepwalk their way through this fascistic global push. More of you need to be more serious, sooner rather than later.

Australian Federal Police ®
56m • S
The AFP has set up new National Security Investigations (NSI) teams to target groups and individuals causing high levels of harm to Australia's social cohesion.
The NSI teams will work closely with state and territory police, law enforcement and national security partners to provide a coordinated, consistent and intelligence-led response to security threats, and also work on a global level through operations, capabilities and relationships with the international law enforcement intelligence community.
There are current and emerging groups dispersed across Australia and in some cases, overseas, who are eroding our country's social fabric by advocating hatred, fear, and humiliation. While many of these crimes may not meet the threshold of terrorism, the AFP has identified concerning behaviours which could escalate to politically-motivated violence or hate crimes, which seriously put the Australian community at risk.
There is no place for hate or violence in our communities and the AFP will defend and protect Australia and Australia's future from these threats.
Anyone with information about possible threats to the community or suspicious activity should make a report to the National Security Hotline on 1800 123 400. In an emergency or life-threatening situation, contact Triple

We are in late-stage authoritarian media takeover.

Fox and CNN are owned/controlled by rightwing billionaires.
Twitter and Truth Social
WSJ and WaPo
CBS and ABC
Newsweek, Sinclair, now Tegna; TikTok getting close.

We are far along in the Putin-mold media takeover plan.
