@TuckerCarlson truly inspired me at Perth during his Aus tour. Thank you to all the supporting speakers and to Clive Palmer. This video adds to the gravity of everything that was discussed, thanks @YellowForum https://t.co/p3HH0yQflg
🚨SHOCKING: Polish man draws the line “This is Poland! Jesus Christ! No Prayer Rugs Here!”
This is what real cultural defense looks like. A Polish patriot refuses to surrender his nation’s Christian identity to Islamic conquest by stealth.
No more “diversity” demands that erase Europe’s soul
Via the Australian: "Millions of Australians have been advised to value personal assets including watches, jewellery and Pokemon cards before July 2027 to avoid adverse tax bills under Labor’s capital gains plan."
This is a MASSIVE cost that this tax imposes on ordinary Aussies... the compliance, the valuations, the amount of money being spent on accountants and consultants... none of that money is 'productive' in any meaningful sense, nor is any of it going into government coffers to 'pay for stuff'... it's just another cost added on top of all the others.
This is a concept known as 'efficiency' of taxation... for every dollar it raises in revenue, how many dollars of economic activity does it cost? A perfectly efficient tax would be 1-1, where 100% of the cost of the tax goes into revenue.
The reality is that most taxes are very inefficient, or in other words they COST far more than they raise.
The combination of compliance costs with minimization strategies (where it makes sense to spend 25c in the dollar to avoid 50c of tax) plus enforcement and administration costs on the government side, mean that every Australian tax is costing our economy FAR more than it adds to our government budget.
But nothing, NOTHING, is more 'inefficient' than change. Every time we change the way the rules work a bunch of people have to do a bunch of work, costing hours and $$$, to figure out the answers to a myriad of new questions, so that they can advice their clients with optimised strategies for compliance and minimisation... and then if the government starts flip-flopping and changing their mind about the changes... well we end up just spinning our wheels with a fortune being spent on 'advice' to raise precisely zero dollars.
This government is a mess.
Actually it's worse than a mess. And when people ask if you would seriously trust a 'Pauline Hanson Prime Minister' ask them if things could honestly be any worse than the current mob?
Young 19-year-old ERIKA SARECINI Italian athlete broke 24-year-old triple jump record. @wheaties you awake?
But she received 10% of media coverage given to another Italian athlete of African origin. LET’S EXPOSE RACISM.
The XRP Ledger wasn’t built by one man. The commit record tells a more interesting story than the usual “lone founder” myth.
Jed McCaleb started the codebase. He seeded the early pieces, including the first versions of pathfinding and the native DEX, then exited in 2013 before either really matured.
David Schwartz became the dominant force in the protocol itself. Consensus is his. So is most of the payment execution engine underneath everything else.
Arthur Britto was the one who actually built out the DEX. McCaleb framed it, but Britto did the sustained, hands-on construction on the order book and the major structural refactors that turned early concepts into production code.
So you’ve got three people doing three completely different jobs: the one who started it, the one who designed the core, and the quiet one who did the heaviest building. No single “creator,” which is exactly why the origin story keeps getting flattened into something simpler than what the history actually shows.
@FlareNetworks 's CEO basically just spelled out the endgame for XRP holders 👀
FXRP bridges your XRP straight into a full smart contract environment use it as collateral, borrow stables against it, then put those stables to work for yield. Your XRP isn't just sitting there anymore.
Next layer coming: confidential compute for institutional-grade privacy, which Philion calls a prerequisite for real institutional DeFi to show up 🔐
More utility stacking on top of $XRP without touching the ledger itself
A MASSIVE SECRET DEATH TAX EXPOSED! 🚨 A shockingly hidden 30% 'death tax' secretly buried in Anthony Albanese's explosive new Federal Budget has just been totally leaked! Furious Aussies are absolutely melting down over Labor's unbelievably sneaky and devastating wealth grab that is ruthlessly aimed straight at innocent families! 😱 You will not believe how much they are trying to secretly take from you!
Uncover the completely jaw-dropping breakdown of this terrifying new tax in the comments below 👇
“I want to take my country back, and I want you to have your state back.” Victoria has been failed by left-wing “progressive” politics for a decade. Under the incompetent leadership of Jacinta Allan, the Victorian Labor Government makes a credible claim to be the worst administration in Australia, and there is some stiff competition!
Ignore all the noise about Victoria being an inherently “progressive” state. Victorians deserve good governance and common-sense policies that put them first, just like any other part of the country.
Pauline has been in Victoria over the past few days, and there is growing support for her and One Nation. Attracting a few lefty protestors to our events is a badge of honour as far as we’re concerned.
What a farce. The “Ambassador” for First Nations People was appointed in March 2023 on a salary of approx. $400,000 per year. He has an office costing the taxpayer well over $13 million over a four-year period. In September 2024, according to the Daily Telegraph, a $266,000-a-year contract was awarded to a consultancy in Sydney to develop a “strategy for a First Nations approach to foreign policy." Almost two years on, and there still doesn’t appear to be a strategy document. In fact, according to government officials, the strategy is more of a "direction," a vibe, rather than an actual document.
Maybe the reason why they’re struggling so much to put pen to paper is that an Ambassador for First Nations People, and First Nations diplomacy is entirely wrongheaded and ridiculous. We should have one set of ambassadors carrying out diplomacy for all Australians. The whole ideology behind this position was rejected decisively at the federal Voice to Parliament referendum, and it’s a total waste of money. One Nation would scrap the position in a heartbeat.

It’s true. More and more lifelong Labor voters are moving over to One Nation, and we’re delighted to have them! The Labor Party has categorically failed to represent working people repeatedly over many years.
