A Trump-appointed federal judge ordered the WH to restore Associated Press' full access to cover events. The decision was based on First Amendment grounds, as the government cannot punish the news organization for the content of its speech.

The US exports twice as much to us as we do to them. Time for some retaliatory tariffs. First up: American cars. Our streets could benefit from fewer shit-house stupidly large 'pickup trucks' that don’t fit in standard car parks.

A huge thank you to the 'sandbag army' of young boardie-clad blokes who have spent today at the SES station filling sandbags and helping lift them into our cars and utes. They saved us masses of time, stress, and chiropractor bills from trying to lift the bags- which are very heavy. #cyclonealfred

www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... When LNP left office, inflation was rising, wages were falling & interest rates were going up. Together, we have turned this around. Under the LNP, inflation had a six in front of it & was rising. Under ALP, inflation has a two in front of it & is falling.

Something MSM l NEVER remind Aussies about is LNP’s promise, that with their destruction of Labor’s price on carbon, there would be savings to consumers of $550/year. That was about 13 years ago. So 13x$550=$7150 Have you received your cheque from LNP? Nope. But Prices & carbon emissions rose.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has learned to play Trump like a fiddle. She says what he wants to hear so he feels flattered -- and backs down. Because he actually hates confrontations and tends to cave in any protracted negotiation. He's not a dealmaker. He's a toddler.
