The Greens have secured enviro laws with new protections for native forests & stopped Labor from fast-tracking coal & gas.
We’ve got outcomes that forest campaigners have fought for across decades.
We’ve made it harder for big corporations to keep wrecking our environment.

He’s confused a lot. He sometimes mumbles sort of incoherent nonsense when he’s asked a question in the Oval Office.
Clearly they’re not getting MRIs just because, because that’s the moment that we live in. There’s a reason

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.
