Iran is an Islamic theocracy because of the US. Iran had a democratic government which the US and UK overthrew to install a brutal pro western dictatorship for oil. The 79 revolution was a direct consequence of this. People pretend the government is anti-US for no reason

The rhetoric of the Trump administration has taken a chilling turn
There have been plenty of examples of the Trump administration's contempt for legalities, diplomacy and alliances but this week Trump and his lieutenants went further.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

When it comes to violence against protesters, this administration has a track record of lies
It is difficult to take ICE’s claims about Minneapolis seriously when it has already been called out for gross misrepresentations about its encounters with demonstrators.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social , are we “all the way with DJT”? Because I think we Australians are going to need a little reassurance from you that this is NOT your idea of a safe alliance either, and that being blu-tacked to a lunatic will not end well for us.
Thanks for your consideration.

To be fair, Australians have very little trust in any national inquiry/RC for several reasons:
a) RCs/inquiries cost a shitload
b) Recommendations hardly ever fully implemented
c) A lawyer's picnic
d) RCs can't commence until trial/Appeal have been exhausted
