When voting becomes digital, kiss democracy goodbye.

In Australia we have a powerful team:

Paper.

A pencil.

And scrutineers.

And for those who quibble, voting is NOT compulsory. Turning up to vote is compulsory. There’s a very big difference.

For three years Australia has proudly supported the brave people of Ukraine in their struggle to defend their sovereignty against the brutality of Russian aggression and in support of international law.

Australia stands with Ukraine. 🇦🇺🇺🇦

[𝔗𝔯𝔲𝔱𝔥 𝔐𝔞𝔱𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔰 @politicsusa46]

Let’s get this straight from the outset. The sole intent of this meeting in the Oval Office, was a tag team mugging designed specifically to disgracefully humiliate a war time president in front of the world’s media, for the sole purpose of gaining leverage.

Just one problem, Zelenskyy hadn’t read the script. He was OK until JD Vance lit the blue touch paper looking for Zelenskyy to get down on his knees and show gratitude to a president, who had spent his entire campaign attempting to block military aid to Ukraine. JD Vance has been the chief cheerleader to not give Ukraine a cent. So tell me, who was Zelenskyy supposed to thank? Did they plan to invite Joe Biden into the room?

The reality of the situation is, Zelenskyy is viewed as an obstruction to their attempted extortion of his nation’s mineral wealth. So it’s no surprise Lady Lyndsay Graham is now calling for his resignation. The Ukrainian president owes no loyalty to this administration, all they have ever done is try to starve him of military aid which they did successfully for six months resulting in thousands of Ukrainian soldiers losing their lives.

Meanwhile, the President of the United States has unilaterally decided to align with a Russian war criminal. Trump has demanded nothing from Putin by way of reparations for Russian aggression. Instead, preferring to insist Ukraine pay reparations as the VICTIM of an illegal invasion. To really twist the knife, he is illegally attempting to convert lawfully appropriated funds, retrospectively to a loan.

$183 billion dollars of aid has been appropriated, NOT $350 billion as claimed by Trump. 70% of the military aid funding, has been spent in arms manufacturing plants across America, providing jobs and profits to those companies. You won’t be surprised to note that many Republicans hold stocks in those companies too. In many cases the newly manufactured hardware has gone into U.S. stock, while the older stocks have been shipped to Ukraine.

These same plants have also been paid by NATO allies and European countries who supplied aid to Ukraine. I’d really like to take a look at the premiums that were added to these orders.

The U.S. has been the primary economic benefactor of the Ukraine war, while simply drip feeding just enough hardware for Ukraine to hold off the Russian army. At every twist and turn Ukraine has been exploited, so Zelenskyy has every right to be pissed off and say enough of this shit.

Here’s where we are. The Trump Administration has every intention of throwing Ukraine under the bus as a favor to Putin, so that Trump can align America with Russia. Bizarre really, when you consider it’s an economic basket case feeding its soldiers on out of date rations. The only beneficiary of this realignment is Putin. He needs sanctions lifting quickly before his economy collapses.

This geopolitical move by Trump effectively destabilizes European security, because the lifting of sanctions will allow Putin to regroup, then take another stab at Ukraine before moving on to the Balkan states.

European and the NATO allies must stop thinking they can rehabilitate their abuser. It can’t be done. When a bully steals your lunch money today, rest assured he’ll be back tomorrow.

It’s time to rip off the bandaid. Revoke the leases on all US bases, in the interests of the global threat presented by the Russo-American alliance. Invite South Korea, Australia and New Zealand into a new alliance. Cancel all military contracts and current licenses for military tech to the U.S.

It’s time for a new global alliance. This can then form the foundation for a new economic alliance to rival the dollar. This can be done, there just has to be the will to do it.

America has now declared war on the world, so it’s time to demonstrate that the world has had enough. We need to STOP living in fear of our abuser.

The magic and joy of watching Sense8 for the very first time can never be experienced again. But the next best thing is watching someone else experience it for the first time.

@SquigglyRick I’ve just finished reading Mean Streak and I’m so full of admiration for you, dear Rick, not just for this brilliant piece of writing, but also that you’re still standing after such long and close exposure to the toxicity that was Robodebt. Be gentle with yourself.

@MsInmadcity I was following it on MSNBC all day & am devastated that the impossible could happened. I was so positive that VP Harris would become the President 😢

We figured we’d give this one a final retweet tonight. It’s collected the lowest proportion of our #USElection2024 Trilogy (>30m views that we’ve seen). But in one week, in comments & messages, it’s really landed with swing voters -🤞🙏 part of a wider pattern of late momentum.

[Imtiaz Mahmood @ImtiazMadmood]

Her name is Miss Ahoo Daryaei (آهو_دریایی).
They'll not kill her as she has become an icon within two days. Islamic regime is playing it down by declaring her a mental illness case and admitted her in a mental institution for treatment.

Freedom of women in Islam is mental disease.

[Masih Alinejad 🏳️ @AlinejadMasih]

Breaking:
The authorities in Iran are now claiming that a young woman, who courageously removed her clothes in protest against harassment by the morality, police at her university, suffers from psychological illness and has been admitted to a mental health hospital.

This accusation of mental instability is a familiar tactic by the Islamic Republic. In 2014, when I launched the My Stealthy Freedom campaign against compulsory hijab, the regime used similar lies against me, claiming I had a mental breakdown, undressed myself on the London subway and was raped by three men.

This is how they attempt to undermine those who resist their oppression.

I believe her life is now in serious danger. I urge international media, human rights organizations, and the international community to see through these lies and support her before is too late.
Stand up for Iranian women who have had enough of this regime’s gender apartheid.
This woman has been forcibly hospitalized under psychiatric supervision—marking the start of torture and, soon after, the cycle of forced confessions.

One student who witnessed the entire incident says:
“On Saturday, November 2, we saw the university’s security and Basij forces trying to forcibly drag a female student into the security room, under the pretext of her not wearing a proper hijab. She resisted, and in the struggle, her hoodie was pulled off, leaving her with only her undergarments underneath. Shocked, the security officers let her go, after which, in a moment of rage, she removed her pants and threw them at the officers.”

This eyewitness account directly contradicts the regime’s narrative and shows the extent of brutality Iranian women face for the most basic acts of defiance.

Let’s be her voice.

[Habib Khan @HabibKhanT]

We now know the name of this iconic Iranian woman: Ahoo Daryaei, meaning Deer of the Sea.

[Daughters of Persia @fightforpersia]

She stripped away their control. Now, they want her silenced.

Say her name. Share her story. Show the world her courage! ✊

Today, at Amir Kabir University in Iran Tehran, the morality police harassed her for wearing an improper hijab. In response, she took off her clothes in protest. It’s an act of incredible courage and, at the same time, heartbreaking. I’m deeply concerned for her well-being.
These women are the real freedom fighters.

Defiance personified. She was arrested and killed.

[JohnnyNash @JohnnyNash77]

Her courage is a silent roar that shakes the foundations of oppression.
