Time to end AUKUS, remove US bases and chart an independent, principled and safe defence and foreign policy for Australia. Cringing in fear under the tattered US umbrella while it’s being used to beat up US allies is no longer a credible plan.

The House introduces a bill to Annex Greenland and “grant it statehood”
They make it sound like they’re doing Greenland a favour. Greenland doesn't want to be annexed
This is hostile.
Shame on Republican Randy Fine for introducing the bill and shame on anyone who votes to pass it
