Anthony Albanese versus Pauline Hanson both entered parliament in 1996. Same year. Same starting line. Nearly 30 years later — here’s the comparison.
PAULINE HANSON
Bills originated and passed into law: Zero.
Her COVID vaccination bill failed. Her burqa ban failed — twice. Her immigration plebiscite failed. Her own website lists her achievements as blocking other people’s legislation, forcing inquiries, and leveraging crossbench power.
Senate attendance rate: 53% - and she’s a Senator with no ministerial responsibilities.
ANTHONY ALBANESE
Bills passed into law in three years of government:
✅ 43% emissions reduction target — legislated
✅ 10 days paid domestic violence leave for every Australian worker
✅ Cheaper childcare — subsidy increased from 85% to 90%
✅ Energy price caps on gas and coal
✅ $300 energy bill relief for every household
✅ National Anti-Corruption Commission
✅ Help-to-Buy shared equity housing scheme
✅ Ban on foreign purchases of existing homes
✅ $3 billion in student debt wiped
✅ School funding reform — Gonski fully funded
✅ RBA reformed
✅ Social media ban for under-16s
✅ $22 billion Future Made in Australia manufacturing investment
✅ Wage theft criminalised
✅ Minimum wages up — cumulative $9,000 for lowest paid workers
✅ Two consecutive budget surpluses — first in 15 years
✅ Electric vehicle fringe benefits tax exempted
Parliamentary attendance rate: 83% — as a sitting Prime Minister with international commitments
Same starting line.
Nearly 30 years apart.
One of knows how to govern.
The other knows how to complain.

Yes, there’s an enormous amount of devastating and troubling news reverberating around the world right now, witches.
From the bloody wars in the Middle East (including our own government’s disgraceful involvement); to the slaughter of Iranian school girls by the USA and the fast-approaching fuel and possibly food shortages everywhere including here in Australia; to the continuing horrific revelations coming out about the Epstein Files; to official confirmation of a lack of accountability for Robodebt’s instigators; to a teenager facing jail for a t-shirt slogan (despite the far-more-criminal Robodebt perpetrators officially going free); to …. well, keeping up with it all is hard if not impossible.
Yet for now, we’ll continue to post mainly on the also-continuing Kyle and Jackie saga, since like so many of you we see this issue as a metaphor for a lot of what else is wrong: it’s wealthy, powerful and violent men globally who are causing almost all this unimaginable suffering to others, and it’s the media who both allow this pain, and who cover up and lie about any attempts to stop it.
Getting Kyle off air (or permanently changed) for good sends an incredibly strong message to the Australian mainstream media: a huge number of us will no longer allow your lies and your sucking up to cruel billionaires and their sycophantic mates to hurt us. We can’t change you all as much as we want to or as much as is necessary, but we can help everyone see that collective people power works. If it’s organised, relentless, and loud. That playing unhinged capitalism at its own game (that is: by attacking its ability to profit) gives ordinary people hope and energy. And that that hope and energy is so brilliant and so necessary to counteract the looming despair of a world gone mad with unchecked male power, hubris and control.
That’s why we keep on going. And it’s why this #VileKyle situation matters so much even though all of us do, of course, understand there are ostensibly bigger fish to fry.
Today we’re publishing another threat made on air by Kyle Sandilands against we witches.
Specifically, against our Administrators.
Sure, this threat is almost funny in light of Kyle’s recent woes, but at the time he made it it was meant as a deadly serious warning. It wasn’t flippant, and it wasn’t innocent. Because this is the way Kyle (and so many other similar men) operate. You can see this vicious behaviour everywhere, if you’re looking for it. And we want witches to see it loud and clear.
We have many such threats still to post, and there are undoubtedly many more we haven’t even found out about yet since going through the transcripts is so time-consuming and difficult.
We publish the threats we’ve found because it’s so important everyone sees just what people like Kyle will do instead of going for the *far easier* action of simply … not broadcasting filth. And it’s important to understand these DARVO tactics (which are now all over the media as well as coming directly out of Kyle’s mouth) of blaming MFW for ARN’s financial woes instead of addressing the media’s own incompetence, deceptions, and willingness to put up with a deluge of on-air verbal violence coming from one of their cohort.
We see them, and we won’t give in. They disgust us. We’re doing critical and dangerous work, all while facing still-increasing threats of personal harm. And we’re doing it while MFW is also still facing (this past week more than ever) a barrage of media lies, scorn, and blatant erasure AND many other serious threats and abuse coming from Kyle and Jackie’s supporters.
But while we still consider our work to be both crucial and ground-breaking (and know so many of you do, too) we will simply keep on going.
Are you in?

CSIRO have now lost more jobs under the Albanese Governmet than under the Abbott Government.
We have to do better on research funding and backing our scientists.

🚨BREAKING: ANTHROPIC CEO JUST ENDED OPENAI
@sama
After getting blacklisted by Pentagon, Dario sits down and writes the most unhinged CEO memo in silicon valley history:
>calls openai's pentagon deal "safety theater"
>says trump admin hates them because they haven't "given dictator-style praise to Trump (while Sam has)"
>names greg brockman's $25M trump super PAC donation by name says they supported AI regulation
>"which is against their agenda"
>says they "told the truth about AI policy issues like job displacement"
THE PALANTIR EXPOSÉ:
>reveals palantir's actual pitch to anthropic during negotiations
>"you have some unhappy employees, you need to offer them something that placates them or makes what is happening invisible to them, and that's the service we provide"
>palantir's pitch wasn't safety. it was CONCEALMENT
>palantir offered a "classifier" to detect red line violations
>dario: models get jailbroken, monitoring only works in a few cases "maybe 20% real and 80% safety theater"
>says palantir offered openai the same package
>openai accepted it
>says Altman is "peddling narratives" to his own employees
>calls openai employees "sort of a gullible bunch" due to "selection effects"
>says the "attempted spin/gaslighting" isn't working on
>the public or media but IS working on "some Twitter morons" rofl
>says his main concern is making sure it doesn't work on openai employees too
BTW near the end of negotiations the pentagon offered to accept ALL of anthropic's terms if they deleted ONE phrase:
>"analysis of bulk acquired data"
>anthropic refused
>same surveillance clause pentagon said they didn't even want to do
>meanwhile Altman told his employees: "you don't get to weigh in on that" 💀
ITS OVER.
ANTHROPIC WON, DEAL WITH IT
Please read this, its very important.
Over the past day and a half i made posts about the training we wanted to provide Ukrainian soldiers, essentially it was for training from the best shotgun competition shooters in the buisness to train soldiers how to defend themselves against FPV Drones.
The reason it was important is because Fibre Optic drones canbot be jammed, and the last line of defence for soldiers is to shoot them down before they get hit.
I made 4 or 5 posts. And honestly, they did great, over 36 hours they got 63.500 views which you cannot complain about.
Out of those 63,500 people, just 57 People decided there and then, that they would donate something to to the cause, these 57 people alone pushed the fundraiser to 11% of the $20,000 target within that time.
Thats how important it is for people to just stop and consider, can i donate something, do i have 3 dollars or ten i can live without to save lives. Because this is what this is. Just 0.0898% wich is more than 10 times less than 1% got the fundraiser to 11%. within 36 hours.
Those are active decisions people can make, by taking action rather than being passive. These people decided they will be part of that change and help make this happen.
I promiss you, every single dollar spent on this cause helps ten fold. The lives we save save today, produce generations in the future.
Please consider, if you will be part of that change that the world so desperately needs right now.
There is not a single amount that you can donate that is considered not enough, Pennies, make Pounds.
You can save lives here.

If this disgraceful building is built, MFW will list all companies associated with its build, all business tenants, and any other corporation using or benefiting from it on our #DumpTrump boycott databases so all Australians (and anyone anywhere who hates Trump) can avoid paying a single cent to any of them ever.
You have our word on it.
Who’s in?
