Citizens United is among the worst decisions in Supreme Court history. It's allowed billionaires to completely take over our politics and destroy our democracy. There are days when we are reminded just how pernicious that ruling was. Today is one of those days.

The richest man in the world says Americans must suffer the "hardship" of $2 trillion in cuts to public spending, while he still gets tax cuts, government contracts, and corporate welfare. No wonder I got a little angry talking about it. See this week's full Coffee Klatch here: youtu.be/KXzkNKVLy9g

Americans understand: Something is very wrong when three people on top own more wealth than the bottom half of society. As a result of the disastrous Citizens United Supreme Court decision, the billionaire class not only controls our economy, but also our political process.

Yesterday, Bob Brown took internationally renowned comedian and actor @BillBailey into Tasmania’s ancient forests. “Only when you get close to them do you get a sense of the enormity of them" — Bill from under a towering giant.

When is a Government Department not a government department? "will provide advice and guidance from outside of Government" So, not a Department, then? Is that so they won't be bound by US conflict of interest regs?
Orwell, it turns out, was right. He was just 40 years off.

Australia’s education system is a mess due to inadequate funding and severe imbalance between public and private schools. If there’s any point at all to a Labor Government it should be doing a root and branch overhaul of the system. Imagine AUKUS was scrapped and schools funded.

“Western Australia’s sycophantic support of gas and lack of climate action is dragging down the whole country’s climate ambition and also slowing the uptake of renewable energy in Asia” My quote in this excellent article on the North West Shelf: theguardian.com/australia-ne…

“The sad truth is that when a woman is killed by her partner her death has a much better chance of being branded a national disgrace if she is young, good looking and white. And that in itself is also a national disgrace.” #MediaWatch

It's not called the world wide web for nothing... Beyond the fact that VPN's will circumvent bans (just like magnets for $15 on Amazon unlock electromagnetic pouches), the kids who find their way into these spaces will do with more risk.

I see zero meaningful commitment to digital citizenship education in these dizzying populist conversations about protecting young people. Its bloody embarrasing. #NoAgeBan #DigitalNutrition. #digitalparenting #esafety
