The US secretly approved a financial and maritime arrangement between Qatar and Iran, under which billions of dollars were paid to Tehran in exchange for free passage for Qatari tankers and ships through the Strait of Hormuz, three diplomatic officials now confirm.
This was a deliberate and conscious course of action by the US administration, which allowed its navy to turn a blind eye to the arrangement, in complete contradiction of its declared policy. The move was intended to ease the crisis in global energy markets and curb rising oil prices.

@karlstefanovic Howard is absolutely responsible.
Howard was warned 2003 house prices were spiralling up from 2000 when his 50% CGT discount gift began.
Howard knew what was happening, knew first homebuyers were being locked out even then but didn’t care.
He can deny all he wants. It’s fact.
This was more than three weeks ago.
Has Jillian Segal said anything about these kidnappings, rapes and assaults by Israel on Australians attempting to deliver humanitarian aid yet?
I haven't heard anything.
Anyone else?
It's likely Kompromat is held on senior @AlboMP government Minister. Otherwise you would have to believe no one in the G has any understanding of political espionage. Are they suckers or stupid? #auspol
@MichaelWestBiz What on EARTH! The Iranian ambassador was dismissed based on allegations from Mossad, over a singed synagogue door and a trashed cafe. We are talking here of Australian citizens being sexually abused and RAPED.
Why hasn't the Israeli ambassador already on his way back to Tel Aviv

JUST IN: IRANIAN FM ARAGHCHI:
“The end of the war will not be complete without the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the territories they occupied in Lebanon.
Any military attack by Israel on Lebanon and the continued occupation of Lebanese territories from now on, in our opinion, is a violation of the MoU.”
Benjamin Netanyahu can't attend United Nations sessions !!
TheMayor of New York Zohran Mamdani, has promised to get him arrested if he sets foot in the City
A group of Australian citizens were kidnapped on international waters and beaten senseless on camera by their captors - Israel
The most prominent Israel advocate in Australia - Jillian Segal - has so far said nothing about the welfare of her fellow Australian citizens nor condemned this atrocious abuse of human rights and brutality by her home state of Israel
Jillian Segal is an employee of the Australian people charged with promoting "social cohesion" and her silence on this blatant Israeli abuse of her fellow Australians is a disgrace to these abused citizens and to the Australian taxpayers who fund her
Could the 2026 Victorian election mark the beginning of the end of Australia's century-old two-party system? One Nation is now leading or tied in most national polls. Leadership whispers are growing. But is this bigger than one premier — or even one party?
On this week's Curtin's Cast, @Dyrenfurth and @KosSamaras unpack:
🔥 Why replacing leaders won't stop deeper political forces
📊 What Redbridge modelling reveals about Labor & Coalition heartland seats
🗳️ Why One Nation's rise threatens BOTH major parties
💥 Why moral denunciation alone won't reconnect voters
🚨 If Victoria sees a One Nation breakthrough, nowhere in Australia is immune.

He is swollen af. I don't think that's weight gain from overeating as much as it's retaining water. Maybe both!? But he is larger and more unstable. That's fairly obvious.
When oh when can we expect the ANU to sue the constancy firm Nous for the dud advice that cost the university more than $100m plus “reputational” damage, and untold millions extra in payouts, costs etc. and when ooh when will govt look at the Nous model of generating new work, so similar to that of PWC and KPMG. SOme consultants seem to be privileged species.

You know what’s weird about Kogan’s attack on tax reforms?
He hasn’t mentioned it in any of the emails or text messages Kogan keeps sending me
Why not?
Because most Australians are APPALLED to learn that capital is NOT TAXED the same as work
Most think it should be taxed MORE
