@strangerous10@Jasonsmumr I’ve never thought I’d hear anything useful from her. But this is good.
What has Hanson actually achieved?
She dismantled the Family Court, with Morrison’s help. All because Hanson’s son was deemed too violent to be allowed near his kids.
If you look around you'll see big and small "aggregators" still blatantly upload, use fake watermarks, re-post and BEING MONETIZED.
I was demonetized with incoherent rules never explained before and applied to me only.

This is 3-Star Navy Admiral Nancy Lacore. Pete Hegseth fired her last year. She’s now running for Congress and has the chance to flip a GOP-held seat and deliver the majority for Democrats in November.
RETWEET if you support @NancyLacore as she runs to flip the House Blue!
The First Fleet and the Myth of Monoculture
The idea that the First Fleet brought a pure “British monoculture” to Australia is a myth.
While mostly from the British Isles (English majority + ~141 Irish, 33 Scottish, 9 Welsh), the fleet also carried:
• At least 14 North Americans • 12+ people of African descent (from Africa, West Indies, America & beyond) • Others from France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, India & more
Researchers have identified ~235 non-English First Fleeters. Real diversity from day one.

One billionaire family controls the bridge that carries 25% of all U.S.–Canada trade.
The good news? There's a brand new public bridge right next door (and Canada paid for the whole thing).
The bad news? Donald Trump won't let it open.
Here's the story:
For more than a decade, Michigan and Canada worked together to build a new public crossing right next to it — six lanes over the Detroit River, named for a Canadian-born Red Wings legend, built by thousands of union workers. Canada paid the entire bill. Michigan co-owns it. It's finished. It’s a shining example of international cooperation and collaboration, with a tremendous return for both sides: more jobs, faster trade, and lower costs.
So why isn't it open?
Because the Moroun family, who own the rival Ambassador Bridge just up the river, doesn’t want the competition. They spent years and tens of millions of dollars trying to stop any competing international crossing from being built or opening. They lost. So they went to the White House instead.
In January, Matthew Moroun gave $1 million to a pro-Trump super PAC. Then the billionaire called Trump's Commerce Secretary and, just hours later, Trump suddenly attacked the same publicly owned bridge he praised in his own first term and threatened to block it.
Then, the day before the June 12th ribbon-cutting, the opening was called off indefinitely.
It's corruption so flagrant it would be laughable if it weren't so damaging.
Trump is screwing over Michiganders for the interests of billionaires — holding a finished, publicly owned project hostage to protect one donor's toll booth.
So a finished bridge sits closed, Michiganders keep paying the higher tolls, cars and trucks cost more, and a billionaire family keeps its monopoly.
Mr. President: stop playing games. Open the damn bridge.
BREAKING: Obama just PERFECTLY diagnosed Trump's bizarre obsession with him — and it's a brutal indictment of Dementia Donnie’s presidency.
Barack Obama just put words to something millions of Americans have noticed for nearly a decade: Donald Trump is utterly, pathologically OBSESSED with him, and Obama explained exactly why that should terrify anyone who cares about the country.
Speaking on the "All The Smoke" podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, Obama was asked about Trump's fixation. His response was as cool as it was devastating.
"I obviously have a room in his head," Obama said, as the hosts jumped in: "Rent free."
"A SUITE in his head," Obama corrected, drawing laughs.
But then he turned serious — and landed the real blow. Obama explained that when YOU'RE actually doing the job of president, you simply don't have time to obsess over anyone else.
"When I was president, the last thing I had time to do was worry about what somebody said or what my predecessor did. They're gone. I've got work to do."
He continued: "It's hard to describe how, if you're doing the job right, every day you've got five, ten things that are real hard and you have to be constantly focused. The idea that I'd be worrying about somebody who came before me, trying to measure what's he done today — constantly worried about that is a strange thing to me."
Then came the kicker that cuts straight to the heart of Trump's entire presidency: "It shows me somebody who's NOT focused on the American people."
That's the whole thing right there. While Americans struggle with $6 gas, soaring grocery prices, a war nobody wanted, and healthcare being stripped away to fund billionaire tax cuts — Trump is on Truth Social at 2am ranting about Obama, posting fake videos, and stewing over a man who left office nearly a decade ago.
Obama is living rent-free in a beachfront SUITE in Trump's head. And every minute Trump spends there is a minute he's NOT spending on the people who actually need a president working for them.
Focused leaders don't obsess. They WORK for the citizens of this country. The only work Donald Trump does at this point is focused on his own enrichment.
Please like and share if you wish Obama could be president again!
I confess I’m puzzled by the fascination with Stefanovic. Who cares ? The Today Show died in the arse after Lisa Wilkinson left, watched only in nursing homes where the inhabitants were too frail to reach for the remote. https://t.co/5P2FrkF2sP
Check into the hospital with liver failure, they take away the bottle.
Check in with lung cancer, they take away the cigarettes.
Check in with type 2 diabetes, they bring you a tray of white toast, orange juice and a little tub of jelly, and tell you the dietician will be round on Tuesday.
BREAKING: Democrat Nancy Lacore is officially the nominee in South Carolina's 1st Congressional District to replace Nancy Mace. Lacore is a Navy Admiral who was wrongly fired by Pete Hegseth during his insane purges of our Armed Services. Let's make sure Lacore wins!
If I had to reregister to vote, post SAVE Act, I'd need:
a $25 copy of my birth certificate,
a $5 copy of my name change,
a $3 copy of my marriage license,
and an $89 drivers license.
OR a $165 passport.
Not only is it an unconstitutional poll tax,
it's also a mostly pink tax.
Have you ever seen this iconic image of the #Ebola virus, from the first known outbreak in DRC in 1976? An electron microscopic image, it was captured by #CDC 's Fred Murphy, a virological giant and a very kind interviewee. He died yesterday. He will be missed, but his scientific legacy lives on.
"We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done" Alan Turing, born on this day in 1912.
His genius helped to save hundreds of thousands of lives during WWII and led to the creation of the device you're using to read this message.
Today I moved to suspend standing orders over the government's failure to act on gambling harm.
The ask was simple: release the draft gambling laws for public consultation before the laws are passed.
The government voted no. And the Coalition? They didn't even show up.
More than 3 million Australians continue to be harmed by gambling advertising. Australians deserve better.
Dear @EnvAgency.
In February this year, after 4 years of asking you to look after the Aldersbrook, I led a team of volunteers to do your job for you & clean out tonnes of silt & leaves, as well as hundreds of bags of rubbish. Through the effort of community volunteers & donations, & at zero cost to the taxpayer, we turned a forgotten silted up ditch back into a river again.
Last nights intense rain storm showed why our actions are the very definition of “strengthening water resilience”. A huge amount of rain fell in a short time, but the restored section of the Aldersbrook has been able to hold 100’s of thousands of litres more water, stopping this water running into the Roding, & thereby *reducing* local flood risk. The first photograph below is of the Aldersbrook after the rains this morning- a big contrast to the area before we did the work.
Perhaps more importantly, this water, instead of running straight off into the Roding & hence the sea is now being held in the Aldersbrook & gradually released so it can be used by nature. It is feeding marshes, trees & wildlife, topping up groundwater & helping to reduce our flood/drought cycle. If you want to strengthen water resilience, we need thousands more projects like the Aldersbrook around the country.
So the question I ask you, Environment Agency, is why you are threatening me with two years imprisonment, rather than offering to meet & discuss how we can work together to restore the Roding & its tributaries, which could become a blueprint for you cooperating with local river guardians nationwide?
I think it's very important that we remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.
It’s cost $2.4 billion all up to compensate the Robodebt victims. Those still alive, that is. An outrage. Yet those incompetent thugs Morrison, Robert and Tudge escape scot-free. And their successors have the gall to lecture us on responsible government. https://t.co/B95sKE1sC3
