My latest article in The Shot

After spending obscene amounts of taxpayer's money on luxury travel, office refurbishments and airfares from their homes to their Canberra office, I examine the high price Australians have paid so far for an impotent #NACC

Nem uma única bola rolou no gramado até agora e este é o quadro da COPA 2026:
• As equipes do Senegal e do Uzbequistão foram tratadas na chegada como criminosos, com buscas completas em seus orifícios.
• O melhor árbitro da África foi enviado de volta à Somália, apesar de seu passaporte diplomático.
• O Fotógrafo da equipe do Iraque foi impedido de entrar mesmo com visto válido.
• Foi negada a entrada nos EUA de 90% dos fãs marroquinos com ingressos já adquiridos.
• Foram recusados vistos a 14 membros da equipe de apoio do Irã.
• Foi negada a entrada no país do principal atacante da Suíça, o camaronês Breel Embolo. A equipe viajou sem ele. Após a forte repercussão, o visto foi enfim concedido.
• A equipe iraniana, cujos jogos serão todos nos EUA, foi proibida de pernoitar no país. Imediatamente a após cada partida, os atletas voarão de volta ao México, onde se hospedam.
- Qual é o sentido de sediar a Copa do Mundo se não pretendem que o MUNDO faça parte dela???

My piece in the @GuardianAus today arguing govts can't afford to repeat the mistakes they made with the gas industry.

With huge investment in data centres - why aren't we asking what this is all for and how Australians are going to benefit from it?

If we do want data centres and multinational tech giants are going to use Australian land, Australian energy, Australian water & Australian workers to build the infrastructure that powers the AI revolution, then Australians deserve a fair return.

That's the lesson we failed to learn with gas. We shouldn't wait another generation to learn it again.

@CalltoActivism @grok who is the young lady behind Trump’s right shoulder?

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Trump said something outside a press gaggle that I don’t think enough people caught.

A reporter called him out on the corruption. He gave three responses.

1. I have the right to do it.
2. He’s not stealing that much. A billion or two billion dollars. Not that much money. Classic Trump.
3. People don’t care.

That’s the permission structure. Our collective apathy is what they’re using to justify everything happening in Washington right now.

Please stand up and prove him wrong.

@HunterBiden All power to you Hunter. I hope you can outlast the aggression and nastiness you are receiving.

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

Remember this trash propaganda from the NY Post claiming 2 million New Yorkers would leave if Mamdani gets elected?
Welp—we're on month 6. Mamdani's approval has gone from +38 upon inauguration to +48 today, robberies are down 11%, retail theft is down 19%, murders are down 21%—AND NO ONE HAS LEFT NYC.
A reminder that when billionaires claim "they'll leave if they have to pay their fair share of taxes," they're lying, because they're liars, and all they know how to do is lie, because truth and facts end their corruption.

MAJOR BREAKING: Canada bans Texas cattle over flesh-eating screwworm outbreak.

Remember that Trump/DOGE pushed broad USDA staffing and budget cuts that affected APHIS, which happens to be the the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, responsible for overseeing screwworm in cattle at the federal level.

Thanks Trump for screwing us, you worm....

[David Pocock @DavidPocock]

Australians lose $35 billion to gambling every year. In this episode we speak with Prof. Samantha Thomas who expose the industry’s "tobacco-style" playbook that targets kids and normalises addiction. We discuss the landmark Murphy Report’s push for a total ad ban, and why the government is choosing to protect vested interests over Australian kids.

Listen at the link in bio/below and email your MP letting them know you support a full gambling ad ban.

Trump has just destroyed the US beef industry. No country in their right mind is going to import US beef.

After Trump cut funding for Screwworm monitoring programs, the dangerous flesh-eating parasite has been found in US cattle for the first time since 1966.

[Guitar Gods Unleashed @gguworld]

People credit Sting for The Police.

Watch this and reconsider.

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

Entering month 6 of the Mamdani mayorship of NYC and Robberies are down 11%, Retail theft is down 19%, and Murder is down an astounding 21%.

And he did so without "Adding 5000 new cops" to the streets. Instead, he's invested in public safety with free childcare, accessible infrastructure, and better funded schools and libraries. He's proven once again that if we want safer communities, we must invest in People—not Punishments.

[David Shoebridge @DavidShoebridge]

Australian media isn’t covering this but what’s happening in Cuba is dreadful. Trump signed an executive order cutting off Cuba’s last oil supply. Ten million people are paying with their lives. Sewage systems are failing, food is rationed, it’s getting worse.

[Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf 🌏 🦣 @rahmstorf]

I'm afraid that this is why the US administration wants to shut down ocean observations: they don't want the people to know what is happening in our oceans, as it does not fit their ideology and the interests of their fossil fuel industry funders.

If you want proof that our health systems overlook women, just look at menopause.

In The New York Times @nytimes today, I share why I’m directing new funding to improve the standard of care for menopause and perimenopause. https://t.co/8BPLMDwxdI

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Trump promised not to “touch” Medicaid.

Now he is cutting it by $1 trillion and taking health care away from patients with cancer, AIDS and other life-threatening diseases to pay for tax breaks to the top 1% and his wealthy campaign contributors.

Unimaginable cruelty.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.

More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.

And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.

Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.

The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.

Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.

We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

Today in senate estimates another day looking at the appalling AUKUS deal, how the government is building homes for US troops but not Australians and how Labor is marching us into a US war with China.

[Toilet Paper Australia @toiletpaperaus1]

Just a reminder: when Barnaby Joyce joined One Nation, Pauline Hanson received a $100,000, 42.5% pay rise, due to One Nation getting enough MPs to be classified as a minor party.

Yesterday, she stated that she would not support a 6% raise to the minimum wage.

[Craig Emerson @DrCraigEmerson]

I just checked it out. There are 27 higher taxing countries than Australia (all of them rich countries). John Symon’s claim that Australia is the highest taxing country in the world is utter rubbish.
