Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 111 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

ABC framing Star Casino as the victim yet again. "The strike is just the latest blow... to the embattled Casino".

Court papers filed Wednesday state that Mr. Abrego Garcia was beaten, deprived of sleep, and subjected to psychological torture during the nearly three months he spent in Salvadoran custody. It is unacceptable to send people to other countries to be tortured!

We made headlines calling out Labor’s climate hypocrisy last week. 🔥

How can Labor talk about climate action while approving more fossil fuel projects?

We won’t stay silent while Australians are mis-led.

Support people and planet. Not corporations.

It’s the culture not the structure. Try rewarding staff for unbiased reporting, implement recommendations from previous reviews about culture, read & act on staff exit interview data, read the feedback from customers, former customers and tax payers! #ABC #Auspol
Tomorrow the ABC is expected to announce its fourth restructure in eight years — and that's generous, plenty of 'mini' restructures inbetween.

There are veteran staff who can't remember a time the broadcaster wasn't restructuring at this point.

Trump’s fascistic US is unfit for any civil global event, and his cuts to FAA makes air travel too dangerous as well. Why would anyone want to come here, under these vile conditions brought to us by the criminals in office?
