Or putting it more strongly: anyone talking about housing affordability but refusing to consider tax concessions for investors is paving the way for even greater wealthy inequality and homelessness.

Anyone talking about housing affordability not mentioning the capital gains tax discount is not talking about housing affordability.

Proving yet again that we have a brutal Labor government who pretends to be committed to democratic reform and accountability. But when it counts, they prosecute #whistleblowers instead of protecting them. Richard Boyle was a national hero. Albanese and Dreyfus threw him under the bus.

📌“(Trump) told you he was going to do this (during the 2024 campaign) - he was going to have a Justice Department that acted as his personal legal representation, and that is what he's doing. He doesn't care.” Say what you want about Chris Christie, but he's the only Republican left with any balls.

On the left, my warning from September 2024 about what Trump 2.0 would look like. On the right, recent headlines. I wish I'd been wrong. But because Trump is following a classic authoritarian playbook, it’s up to state and local governments to push back on this tyranny while it’s still possible.

Excerpt from "Something Lost, Something Gained," page 229: Welcome to Trump's America. If you live in a major city, the first thing you'll probably notice are the soldiers patrolling the streets outside your window.
