It is Albanians, not Americans, who are protesting against American corruption.
The US appears to have accepted the corruption of the Trump family, so we Americans have to rely upon the sound anti-corruption sentiments of others.
Truly embarrassing, but thank you, Albania!

@jommy_tee @Tony_Burke um... WHAT?

Segal is: Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism.

This is not a diplomatic post. The job clearly defines the jurisdiction and boundaries of Australia.

So just how is it, that disclosure of Segal would break Diplomatic trust? Who did they meet with?

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Invading a sovereign nation, slaughtering civilians, targeting medics, forcibly expelling people and demolishing their homes isn’t a “strategy,” it’s a list of war crimes.

[Linda Mamoun @mamoun_linda]

Incredible. @Reuters got ratio’d into acknowledging international law.

Hussam Ebu Safieh, "İsrail'in rehineler için ölüm cezası" ile öldürülecek olan Filistinli doktorlardan biridir (diğer 95 doktor arasında).

Onu öldürmelerine izin verme.
Bunu yeniden yayınlayın.

Penny Wong says she believes Israeli soldiers sexually assaulted and abused Australian women after Gaza flotilla

THAT'S NICE MS WONG. SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? https://t.co/YwxnYluByf #auspol #FreePalestine

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

Good to see the Israel supreme court ordering Red Cross visits to the 9,000-plus Palestinians held as security prisoners. If Netanyahu thinks that reports of rape of prisoners are false, he should welcome investigation and exoneration by the RedCross. https://t.co/LsrmomsR73

Find time to read this quite astonishingly good piece by
@ArwaM Mahdawi. Brilliant on our government's appalling moral confusion over Gaza

"Why is Hasan Piker ‘not conducive to the public good’? Because on Gaza, we punish the witness, not the crime"

Only 23% of Germans have a favourable view of Israel, lower percentage than the UK or France

We've been quiet but busy. Last year we heard that a rich backer had bought the NSN a compound and set about finding where it was. This story we worked on with @Sherryn_G is the result of that investigation. https://t.co/2mEIgMNj6Q

The imbecile, Trump has imposed a new 12% tariff on Australian goods because of "Australia's inaction on slavery".
NOW would be a good time to cancel #AUKUS in retaliation!
THAT might wake him up!

[Warwick Powell | 鲍韶山 @baoshaoshan]

A People’s Commission of Inquiry into AUKUS in Australia has the potential to shine a massive spotlight on the cloistered “insecurity” apparatuses that have put Australia’s security at risk.

In March 2025, I put in an FOI request: Segal's secret US trip.

The request was denied, but I did get 70 pages of completely redacted docs.

A question was asked at a subsequent Senate Estimates.

Last week @Tony_Burke lodged a Public Interest Immunity claim

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

Conroy’s desperation has resulted in false claims that the Australia Institute is “running” the public inquiry.
I have been closely involved in establishing the inquiry. The inquiry is coordinated by a diverse group with the Australian Peace and Security Forum the lead agency.

Don’t become numb to these atrocities - there are not separate kinds of human beings - what is done to one is done to all .

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

Israelis who block aid trucks to feed starving children in Gaza are considered civilians.

Yemenis who block trade routes to prevent genocide in Gaza are considered pirates.

Americans who block aid ships to feed starving children in Cuba are considered peacemakers.

Iranians who block Strait of Hormuz to prevent ethnic cleansing in Lebanon are considered terrorists.

They invented a language to conceal their crimes against humanity. It’s as simple as that.

[Roger Gall @Shambles151]

On 12th June -10am–5pm.

After never having been charged with - & never having been found guilty of terrorism - Pro-Palestine activists will be sentenced for terrorism.

A first in UK history.

Please RT this until this travesty of justice is ended.
Thank you.

Belgium says it suspended arms trade with Israel.

Yet weapons shipments destined for Israel are still reportedly moving through Liège airport via FedEx Belgium.

Now @amnestybe is joining a lawsuit alleging the transfers are continuing in violation of the suspension.

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

Donald Trump fell asleep multiple times in the Oval Office today. AGAIN.

That’s why I’ve called for the 25th Amendment, and dozens of my colleagues have done the same. Donald Trump is unwell and must be removed from office. It’s a national security crisis.
