If we do not reach agreement with the IAEA that is then approved by it’s governing board, the US and UK will not transfer nuclear subs to Australia. The UK is feeling anxious - it desperately needs Australian taxpayers’s money. 1/2 #AUKUS #auspol

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.
