This is a victory for the public good + total vindication for NSW ICAC & the late David Ipp QC. High Court rejects Obeid/Macdonald appeals against their wink nudge $multi-million corruption conviction. Now .. if only NACC would get cracking on federal corruption.

Have we finally reached the stage where Americans realise Trump 🍊🤡 is a lying criminal? Rapist, thief, liar, bullying incompetent.
He’s going to reluctantly agree that his government needs to compensate him with $10bn of taxpayer funds
Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017 and now wants $10 billion because a leaker pointed that out www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

44 days past the legal deadline, the DOJ still hasn’t released the full Epstein files.
That’s not a delay. It’s defiance.
They know what’s in them. What they’re weighing now isn’t review. It’s the fallout.

Nor so we take one sliver of a second to acknowledge that the reason why a kid has even gotten to a point of getting 'arrested' & then presented to a court & then sentenced

@albomp.bsky.social is 'urging protestors to show restraint' when Herzog visits.
I think @albomp.bsky.social should frame this memento of Israel's work in Gaza as a gift for Isaac Herzog and present it to him during his visit.
Would seem fitting. #auspol #GazaGenocide #GazaHolocaust
