Aus is supposed to be a country where the rule of law & natural justice applies. The Gov’s sneaky attempt to strip welfare from people before they’ve been convicted of any crime is a fundamental breach of these principles. We may as well dissolve the court system. #auspol #politas

Looks like the remarkable era of great, brave, relevant writing at #TeenVogue is over. Those women made stand-out journalism at a time it was desperately needed. Sadly it still is. You'll be missed.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Share this video. Every American needs to see it.

Trump's masked forces seize this blind US citizen, Quinn Haberl & brutalize him. Then they called this guy who was simply dancing outside their facility, a rioter. The Trump administration is corrupt & violent.
Tell everyone:
Vote blue this Nov. 4🧵

In a dramatised moment on the ABC’s 4Corners last night, US defense analyst Decker Eveleth ‘revealed’ US subs rotating through HMAS Stirling may in future carry nuclear weapons - a fact already known to Michael West Media readers. 👇ICYMI👇. #auspol
Government playing word games with nuclear weapons - Michael West
While a treaty prohibits nuclear weapons stationed in Australia, the Government tries to circumvent it, playing word-games.

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…

another utter failure of private delivery of public services

“It’s hard to think of another government-funded industry allowed to operate in this way … to continue soaking up so much public money and to spit out so few results.” @jeremypoxon.bsky.social

While #Connolly has said that she will represent the entire country, she will be largely the voice of the working-class and the oppressed – not the Irish landlords and bankers. Nor will she be kind to US imperialism and its allies. #auspol #ireland
The left wins the Irish presidential election in a landslide
Catherine Connolly (born 1957) only became involved in active politics in 1999. Michael D. Higgins, the outgoing president of Ireland (2011-2025), encouraged Connolly to join the Labour Party and stand for election.

“The experiences of First Nations customers accessing electricity via prepayment arrangements has been investigated for the first time..Researchers found frequent disconnections occur during hot temperatures, "undermining health, wellbeing & economic participation"”

Constant power denied to 65,000 customers forced to pay upfront or disconnect
Communities on prepaid power meters face regular disconnections amid 40 degree-plus heat, meaning no aircon, food rotting in the fridge and long, hot walks to get reconnected.

When governments viciously prosecute people who tell the truth they scream the truth about themselves.

Israel’s pursuit of a senior IDF lawyer over the leaking of the horrific torture video of Palestinian prisoners tells that truth.

You know what's exempt from Labor's enviro laws?

AUKUS.

Apparently the US alliance controls even this. The damage cause by a nuclear waste dump can literally be written off if the Environment Minister wants to.
