“This is what corruption looks like,” Rep. Jasmine Crockett said about a firm with ties to Kristi Noem secretly working on a DHS ad campaign. “They’re stealing money from the American people’s pockets and depositing it into their bank accounts.”
Lawmakers Call for Probe of How Firm Tied to Kristi Noem Got Piece of $220 Million DHS Ad Contracts
The demands for an investigation come after a ProPublica story revealed that the Noem-connected Strategy Group was secretly a subcontractor on the ad campaign.

There is no "Left of Center Main Stream Media".
The need for profit (read: clicks and advertisements) to create a "Left of Center" network stifles it's ability to explore "Leftist" positions, and will ultimately result in the network to drift back to the right.

Great to see emissions beginning to fall as more and more renewable energy enters our grid. This is what happens when you set clear targets, and back them with a robust plan—unlike the Coalition’s zero target and zero plan, which would see both emissions and the cost of energy rise.
Australia records biggest annual drop in emissions outside pandemic
Record output from renewable energy means emissions from coal plants are down as Australia’s greenhouse output has fallen for the first time in years.

So this slipped under the radar!

Sounds like the @albomp.bsky.social led Labour government had a dramatic change of heart pre and post election!

All that much ado really was for nothing? Or was it for something under the table?

Shout-out to ABC national regional affairs reporter Lucy Barbour for revealing how two regional hospitals - Orange and Queanbeyan – have been trying to introduce #abortion bans by stealth.
Both bans have since been reversed.

Journalists are supposed to be experts in the use of words. But they call what is happening in Gaza, a “ceasefire” when this blatantly not. They call the absurd missive dictated by Russia, a “Peace Plan” when it is blatantly obvious it is not. Why do journalists conspire to mislead?

Sometimes a “breaking news” headline tells you only stuff that is neither “breaking” nor “news”.
This one was “Barnaby Joyce quits the Nationals and joins One Nation”.

Some would say "sneaky tactic" others would observe that odometer fraud is a federal felony. A creative prosecutor could probably tack on some conspiracy and mail or wire fraud charges too.
