‘Everything changed’: The human cost of 25 years of US wars aje.news/qpqwvu via @AJEnglish
The outrage over an Aboriginal child giving an Acknowledgment of Country before sentencing misses the point
An Acknowledgment of Country doesn't erase responsibility-it recognises whose Country the court stands on
Justice isn't weakened by truth. #auspol

$475 million is a start, but Scotty from Marketing & his gang built this "reckless" scheme on a lie. Morrison, Tudge & Reynolds ran a system that broke people. The settlement's overdue, but those who signed off on this cruelty should be in court. #auspol

Rupert, Zoe Daniel nailed it. Your mob's "change or die" means copying Trump—division, dog whistles, culture wars. But urban Aussies aren't buying. Young people want housing, climate action, fairness. You're not losing elections; you're losing relevance

Rupert, your outrage for Liberal staffers Reynolds & Brown is selective. You frame them as victims, erasing the woman who alleged rape. Your concern never extended to women in your own newsrooms. You're using two women as political shields. Your morals are for your politics only.
Many Australians will no doubt wish, as we do, that this rotten saga was over. But if we let the egregious wrongs done to Linda Reynolds and Fiona Brown continue unchallenged, it will never end.

Oi Rupert, your flag story is provocation. You report Aboriginal anger but ignore its cause: centuries of theft & injustice. Your outrage is for burnt cloth, not for ongoing deaths in custody or the rejected Uluru Statement Symptom, not disease #InvasionDay #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe
An Indigenous leader has set the Australian flag on fire at an Invasion Day event in Queensland, saying he did it because it “doesn’t represent all of us”.
The crowd could be heard chanting “land rights now” before cheering when the flag was set alight.
Earlier, police were forced to separate protesters after two people carrying Australian flags arrived at the event.

The Coalition spent weeks demanding urgent action post-Bondi. Now that they've got it, they're asking for the careful consideration they never afforded the PM. A classic case of "be careful what you wish for."

ABC's new Defence Correspondent Olivia Caisley got schooled by the PM on basic facts. She pushed a Sky News line about the ASIO chief being excluded from meetings, which Albanese flatly denied.
A poorly-researched ambush that hurts security journalism. #auspol @ABCaustralia
The cartoon satirises the RC campaign by showing all sectors—business, sport, LNP, & even 'grassroots'—as part of a monolithic political chorus demanding an RC. It suggests the "popular demand" is a manufactured media and political campaign, not genuine public consensus #auspol
Venezuela's got the world's biggest oil stash .
And history shows when a US President wants it, "war on drugs" suddenly becomes the excuse .
This isn't just about ousting Maduro—it's the oldest play in the imperialist book. #auspol

Usman Khawaja used his retirement to expose the racism he’s faced as a "coloured cricketer". He’s not “playing the victim”—he’s sharing a reality that many others in the sport also know too well. It’s time we listened. #Cricket #auspol

Israel bans Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam & others from Gaza for not signing political statements. The UN calls it "outrageous." Murdoch's media is silent, proving their "pro-Israel" stance defends a government, not human life. #Gaza #auspol

Govt presser: AFP says Bondi attackers were self-radicalised "lone actors." Their plan: prosecute, support NSW inquiry, run Richardson Review, act on antisemitism. They're following security advice for fast action, not a political circus. #auspol

The PM's announcing $25 scripts & mental health help. Murdoch's media pack only cares about the Bondi Royal Commission "cover-up" line.
The govt is delivering; the press is performing. #auspol

The Australian Jewish Association (AJA), pushing for a Bondi RC, was the only major Jewish group to oppose Labor’s Indigenous Voice to Parliament.
It also campaigned against misinformation laws & aid to Palestinians. It's a partisan lobby, not a representative body. #auspol
When Murdoch's media shouts down questions about Israel as "antisemitism," you have to ask why.
They're not protecting Jewish people—they're protecting political power. #auspol
AFP confirms the Bondi attackers were self-radicalised loners, not foreign-trained operatives. This changes the whole conversation. We need to look at the domestic, online environment that fuels this—including our own toxic media #auspol

#Breaking: AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett says the two #BondiBeach gunmen acted alone. They did not receive training or directed by the local #ISIS affiliate in the Philippines, where they spent a month. They returned to Syd on 29 Nov two weeks before the horrific attack #auspol
For many Jews, Zionism means safety.
For Palestinians, it means the Nakba, the catastrophe of displacement & ongoing occupation.

Months before Bondi, Murdoch’s media manufactured an “antisemitism” story at Cafe Cairo. Now they exploit the real tragedy they helped hype to demand a Royal Commission. This is their cynical playbook. #auspol
