"Putin's goal was for Ukraine to surrender and then extend his expansionist ambitions further. But that plan failed.
I'm convinced that Ukraine will win, recover even stronger, more prosperous. The future of Ukraine is the future of peace and freedom
Ukraine is not and will not be alone.."
- Giorgia Meloni
Prime Minister of Italy
Wow..🫡
Hi, Donald. Midcoast Mainer here.
You did not, in fact, “have to go to Japan” to get a Maine lobster before you. We sold millions. Our lobster fishery is one of the most valuable in the U.S.
It’s a big reason why people come here, in case you didn’t know!
If anything is hurting our lobstermen, it’s inflation (which you apparently “love”).
Also, exactly *zero* Maine fishermen run their boats at three knots. More like 30 knots—and some go even faster. You should check out a lobster boat race sometime!
I think it might be time for one of your famous Oval Office naps, because you have ZERO idea what you’re talking about.
According to latest reports, ALL bridges into Crimea have now been hit.
After the Chonhar and Henichesk bridges were hit earlier this week, last night bridges in Armiansk and Krasnoperekopsk were reportedly hit as well.
Wait until you see what's coming next.👀🍿
What I've learned from Sky News After Dark over the past month:
We need to make housing more affordable without making houses cheaper or having people earning more.
The government should be doing more because it's their job but also less because socialism.
Negative gearing and the CGT discount have played a big part in what got us to this point, but they shouldn't be changed at all.
Young Australians being able to afford their first home is almost as important as an investor being able to negatively gear their twelfth.
Ukraine continues to isolate Crimea and the occupied territories by going after transport trucks, bridges, rail lines, ships, and port infrastructure. Russians in Crimea are panicking about being unable to buy gasoline as fuel shortages have begun spreading to Donetsk and Krasnodar. More Russians are speaking about worsening conditions in Russia and everyone is blaming Putin.

Are we sleepwalking into the AI era? 🤖📱
I sat down with Digital Rights Watch founder Lizzie O'Shea to unpack the hidden costs of Big Tech, exploring everything from addictive algorithms and scams to the massive environmental toll of new AI data centres.

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.
