Slot uses Endo so little that he’s still gegenpressing

Just your regular reminder that John Howard never pushed back against Pauline Hanson and One Nation policies. He embraced them, which is how he outflanked them, while also setting the stage for what the Liberals are today. The myth that he 'pushed back' truly needs to die.

Antony Green retired from the ABC Election Desk to spend more time with his twitter account slapping down idiot tin foil hat cookers and I am here for that.

🇨🇺 JUST IN | President Trump has signed a sweeping executive order declaring Cuba an "unusual and extraordinary threat" and authorizing broad new sanctions, including punishing foreign countries that sell oil to the island, even indirectly. The move comes as the Financial Times

Once again, the only way the actions of Trump and his supporters make sense is if you accept that they have no intention of willingly giving up power, regardless of what happens in any democratic process.

We don’t sell Curtis. We pay Curtis more. Pitch forks time.

Millions of people around the world are living in poverty. Meanwhile, the rich and powerful commit heinous crimes with impunity. Our rotten political system rewards dishonesty, abuse & greed. It’s time to replace it with a real democracy that works for the many, not the few.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

Easily 100 times I must have predicted precisely this outcome. We don’t get the boats but we get to station US nuclear subs. Farewell forever any notion of a sovereign Australia as we also render ourselves a big fat target. theguardian.com/world/2026/feb…

You have to admit that it’s incredibly poignant that both of Ange’s successors were sacked on the very same day. Two John the Pragmatists for the price of one

This is Alyson Rudd just over a year ago on Ange compared to media friendly Danish Thomas Frank. Along with the digs he gets on the Game podcast from her, the double standards are clear. As Ange says he just doesn't fit in. Doesn't fit in what they want him to be.

Ange Postecoglou, who migrated to Australia with his family as a 5yo from Greece, chatting passionately about immigration on The Overlap. “I understand why people are protective around it but most immigrants who come over - the first gen - they don’t have a better life.”

Finally a modern development that respects the local character of its' place

It is sort of surreal to hear Hegseth say this Iran war will not be another Iraq war, especially because I remember Rumsfeld saying the Iraq war would not be another Vietnam, 23 years ago.

Some U.S. military commanders have reportedly been accused of telling their troops the Iran war is part of a biblical plan to trigger the end times huffpost.com/entry/troops-b…

The news of the outbreak of real global war is being processed through the collective subconscious of the american psyche, transmuted into basic cultural archetypes, and remanifested on the timeline as a conflict between CEOs about who can eat a hamburger better

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

This could turn out to be the biggest cluster-frick in US history. Worse than Vietnam or invading Iraq. In fact, looking over the last 250 years of American history, I can't think of a worse decision by a US President. This is worse than the Bay of Pigs. Future historians

Spain’s Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares, after Karoline Leavitt said Spain would collaborate militarily with the U.S.: “She may be the White House spokesperson, but I am Spain’s Foreign Minister, and I’m telling her our position remains the same.”

Widespread panic in #Beirut after Israel issues unprecedented evacuation order for southern suburbs. Traffic is choked, people rushing to leave & head north. Drones in the air. WhatsApp messages urging ppl to crack windows open to avoid shattering from expected blasts #lebanon
