Albo’s too busy fellating every American who crosses his path to be able to utter the words condemning live public executions. He wasn’t elected to give our sovereignty away.

LET THIS SINK IN—the U.S. now has no confirmed CDC director, no FDA commissioner, no Surgeon General, an NIH director with no medical license, and the last Acting CDC Director was a George Bush speechwriter. In fact—the only doctor/scientist we have in the White House is… Dr Oz.

None of the budget measures will change the outcome for most would-be home buyers in the short term, but Jim Chalmers’ reforms go well beyond one electoral cycle

Australia's naval defence without AUKUS pillar one
The AUKUS nuclear submarines are not going to be delivered on time and may never arrive. Delaying the decision for a better alternative risks Australia’s future submarine capability.

Any sane foreign policy would put climate risks, not China, at centre stage
Australia’s defence and foreign policy settings are focused on geopolitical rivalry, while far greater systemic risks – especially climate disruption – receive little strategic attention.

In a time of war, resurgent authoritarianism, and an escalating assault on higher education, the language of “institutional neutrality” has emerged not as a safeguard of academic integrity, but as one of the most effective ideological weapons in the campaign to depoliticize the university.
