Nothing Says deserving of Nobel "PEACE" Prize like Donald Trump renaming The Department of Defense as the "Department of WAR" 🤷

Netanyahu says "Australia would do it, not as precise or efficiently" with regards to his plans to Occupy Gaza. 1. No we wouldn't 2. I am pretty sure we would be more precise and efficient in targeting than killing 50,000 women and children and countless journalists www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...

Netanyahu defends Gaza plan, saying Australians 'would do it' too
The Israeli prime minister says the plan, which many countries fear will lead to increased bloodshed, is the fastest way to end the conflict.

#DexterResurrection Premiere was great. I didn't realise how much I missed the banter between Michael C Hall (Dexter) and James Remar (Harry)

Considering the caliber of people Trump has appointed to important positions before, appointing Nick Adams an Ambassador is kinda minor. At least he is not as stupid as the Ambassador to the Bahamas (although not far off).

What is about people in the MAGA Cult posting to kick California out of the USA? California almost single handedly keeps a lot of red states afloat with it's economy. If it were a country it would be in the top half of the G7.

If Jesus Christ returned in 2025 in the USA he would be deported by ICE and possibly sent to a 3rd country since his home land is currently occupied..

Not sure it is being discussed yet but I actually am starting to think that Greens Leader Adam Bandt will lose his seat in Parliament on Liberal Preferences going to Labor. At the moment he is behind A bit of a disaster for the Greens too if that happens #auspol

I dont know why it needs to be said but House prices in Melbourne when I bought my first house were 3-5 times median income. When I upgraded and bought my second property (which I own now) it was 5-7 times the median income. Not it in probably 10 times the median income.

Hey Bridget McKenzie. Maybe might not be a good idea to point out how the fuel excise funds road maintenance when it is your side's policy to slash it by 25c next year as a fake cut to costs. Just a thought. #insiders #auspol #australianelection www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Coalition puts EV drivers on notice over road use tax
Bridget McKenzie says the Coalition believes in principle that electric vehicle drivers should pay a road use charge and will consider one in government, while insisting it will not be a "tax".

It annoys me as a Duo Lingo user that it offers me the ability to learn Klingon or High Valyrian languages (which whilst cool are not needed) but doesn't support learning Cantonese (for English Speakers) which I do need to learn as it is my wife's family's first language

Reading now that The US Dems are investigating if Trump committed insider trading after crashing the stock market and now that explains a LOT. 1. Crash the Stock market with tarrifs. 2. Buy a heap of cheap stocks 3. Announce a "pause" 4. Stock market bounces Ka Ching.... $$$$

Peter Dutton doesn't seem to have an original thought in his head. He just seems to be borrowing from the DOGE playbook including his rhetoric about "cutting wasteful spending" You know what is wasteful spending that he WON'T cut? The billions of dollars in subsidies to the coal industry.

in light of the upcoming Australian Election I did the Vote Compass Survey again. Not surprised with the result. I know I sit on the left between ALP and the Greens. This is a really good tool that Australians should use to see where they sit on the issues that matter www.abc.net.au/news/vote-co...

You know you have a good system when the US Capitalists want to destroy it. Companies don't like that we prevent price gouging on drugs here & want the Trump Administration to punish Australia. I say bring it on. The USA has lost every diplomatic fight over tariffs www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03...

@schumer.senate.gov is being mercilessly and deservedly mocked now. Is caving like a gutless weasel worth it now? I hope those still on the fence end up all voting no. The CR delivers NOTHING for Dems & lets Trump & Musk cut taxes whilst cutting funding for things Democrats used to care about

It would be great if @schumer.senate.gov ends up being the ONLY Democrat senator to gutlessly vote with the GOP and the rest of the Democrats vote No Schumer needs to go and hopefully this act of bastardry shows the rest of the Democrats why.
