Mourning Bondi. Australia's hierarchy of grief - Michael West
Australia suffers from selective empathy. And nowhere is that clearer than in the way our political and media class decide who can mourn.

When are Australian politicians going to realise that Trumps Peace Board has changed the world order from an agreement we all made post WW2 to a corporate ruled order run by Trump? End #AUKUS now!

40,000 ADF personnel served in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2021. 47 died, and 261 were wounded. Trump has insulted them and their service. When will @albomp.bsky.social condemn Trump and demand an apology? Appeasement never works. #timeToTakeAStand

This is deeply sad news. Professor Emma Johnston has passed away. Emma did groundbreaking work on the ecological impacts of human activities in marine ecosystems. She was way too young to leave us. A major loss to the field of ecological science. Vale. www.unimelb.edu.au/newsroom/new...

It’s extraordinary how quickly the media can mobilise & demand government to act on certain issues. Imagine if they had that same urgency for First Nations deaths in custody or women killed by men.

NEW: The State of Arizona sues the House of Representatives, demanding that Speaker Mike Johnson seat Adelita Grijalva or that someone else be allowed to swear her in. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
Because there is no dispute as to Ms. Grijalva's election or qualifications, the Court should:
A. Issue a declaratory judgment stating that Ms. Grijalva shall be deemed a Member of the House of Representatives once she has taken the oath prescribed by law, see 5 U.S.C. § 3331;
B.
Issue a declaratory judgment stating that if Speaker Johnson has not administered
the oath, the oath may be administered to Ms. Grijalva by any person authorized by law to administer oaths under the law of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the State of
Arizona; and
C. Award other relief as the Court deems just and proper.
Dated: October 21, 2025
