Kevin Rudd receives $218,000 per year via his Taxpayer funded pension while earning $780,000 as the CEO of the Asia Society.
Here's the kick in the guts. If an aged pensioner does a few days work, they are punished, and have a percentage of their pension cut. Not Rudd. Not the politicians.
And why are they getting a massive pension anyway? They should receive a custodial sentence for the damage they've done.
It will never stop being astounding that a bunch of men said “we are women!” and a bunch of people, including those in government, said “ok!” and then demonized any woman who said “well this is obviously bullsh-t.”
🟠 #BREAKING ALBANESE LIED FOR WEEKS ABOUT DIGITAL DUTY OF CARE BEFORE UN SPEECH CONFIRMED IT TARGETS POLITICAL MISINFORMATION 🟠
Communications Minister Anika Wells paraded across national television swearing that this bill was strictly about child safety, repeatedly lying to the public that content censorship was completely off the cards.
Then, after weeks of peddling those same lies at home and on the global stage, Anthony Albanese flew to New York, took the UN stage, and dropped the act, spilling the real motive to world leaders.
He has finally admitted the law is designed to combat misinformation, disinformation and political polarisation, and stop Australians from walking away from centrist politics toward alternative views.
Protecting children was always the fake cover story.
This is a weaponised backdoor censorship regime, built to hand Anika Wells total unilateral authority under Section 25C to brand any political news, debate, or dissenting commentary as "seriously harmful" with a stroke of her pen, completely bypassing parliament.
Big Tech platforms facing $109.2 million fines will hand control to AI bots that automatically purge, shadow ban, and throttle right wing news, independent views, and political satire before you ever see it in your feed.
When Labor loses the debate, they lie and use state power to silence you.

🔴 NEW AUSTRALIAN CENSORSHIP LAWS: Labor is turning Australia into a communist country where Anika Wells decides what counts as harmful. Feeds can be shadow banned, pages throttled, accounts wiped and these new laws make it easier than ever to block right wing news.

After pocketing more than $16 million of taxpayers’ money from the Albanese government, Channel Nine can no longer credibly claim to be an independent news organisation.
It now looks less like a newsroom and more like a well-funded propaganda arm of the Albanese regime.
That is why Nine’s latest stunt is so revealing. It flew a reporter to the United States, sat down with a Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, and then tried to smear One Nation by association.
That is not journalism. It is a grubby political hit job dressed up as current affairs.
Nine was once among the most trusted companies in Australia. That reputation is gone. It has surrendered its credibility, and it can no longer be trusted.
Kerry Packer would be rolling in his grave.
This is not an isolated embarrassment. It is another example of how far Australia has slid: a government that subsidises the media that covers it, and a once-proud network that takes the money and then does the government’s dirty work.
Now they're really playing dirty against One Nation.
"A dirty political hit job against Warren Pickering has collapsed after CCTV captured former LNP strategist Jess Christmas helping [ex-wife] Jo Scott execute a cash offer attempt. Scott offered her son cash to falsely accuse Pickering, but he refused to lie, exposing the entire operation."
If this is what the Libs are doing, imagine what Labor will do!
Two things about the school protests:
First, if we were caught in uniform wagging school and shouting curse words at the camera or threatening politicians - we'd be expelled. End of story. That behaviour was wholly unacceptable. Heck, we got detention if we didn't tip our hats to the elderly.
Second, it seems to me that plenty of these children are both mentally unstable and just wanted the opportunity to act out, swearing and carrying on.
There's a vibe going around where hard work and winning academically has been replaced with a race to the bottom of social depravity and political activism.
These children feel important now, because adult activists make them feel that way. But without skills and a sensible temperament, these kids will spend their lives on the dole and make no difference to the world.
So much of what activists call 'white privilege' is simply generations upon generations of people with manners and high cultural standards.
Each individual choice to be a good, hardworking, law-abiding, self-reliant, polite citizen builds a high-trust society of safety and wealth.
Whereas each choice to loot a store, join a street beat-up, trash an air bnb, have a machete fight, graffiti the area, talk like the gutter, treat women like objects, or normalise children to crime and violence creates large-scale perceptions of a dangerous, dysfunctional culture that lacks 'privilege'.
So is it privilege, or simply collective character?
