I can’t be mad at Trump putting “reciprocal” tariffs on countries that don’t actually have tariffs on the US. It’s very relatable to have a totally imagined nemesis relationship with someone who has no idea

'Just obeying orders' no excuse for war crimes
Soldiers conducting the slaughter of innocent civilians under the excuse of obeying orders are war criminals, no matter which country is guilty.

Polls are open in Western Australia and it's time to take on the interests of big corporations.
With more Greens MPs in WA Parliament, we’ll tackle the cost of living, housing & climate crises - and make big corporations pay their fair share of tax.
