Angus Young and Bon Scott cooling down backstage in Sydney, Australia, early 1976. Photo by Philip Morris. When this picture was taken, the boys were right on the absolute launchpad of global stardom. They had just dominated the Australian charts with T.N.T. and were putting the final touches on their international debut.

"P*dophile!” — Trump is brutally humiliated in front of hundreds of his own supporters by a protester. This is now the second time he's publicly confronted about the Epstein files by a protester.

That man is a hero, someone get him a beer!

Pauline Hanson is Gina Rinehart’s puppet, Karl Stefanovic's jumped on the 'cash for fascism' bandwagon, & the destruction of formerly respectable mainstream media is now happening at warp speed. If you can't see the ramifications for our democracy, FFS open your friggin' eyes.

Since Trump doesn't want this portrait of President Obama displayed in the White House, let's make this photo of our President go viral here!

RETWEET if you love @BarackObama!

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

Well done to Jim Chalmers!
Headline inflation falls for the second time in consecutive months!
This happening while Labor is still fixing the massive mess left by the LNP & a war in Iran set up by Trump & promoted by Murdoch!
🍾Just genius Jim!🎉

Former prime minister Tony Abbott has backed Pauline Hanson’s position on Australian culture despite both Liberal leader Angus Taylor and Nationals leader Matt Canavan rejecting the One Nation leader's calls for Australia to be "monocultural".

"Grr," Gina growls.
Gina then puts her hand on Pauline’s back and says quietly:
“Off you go.”

The policy perils of Pauline, as quoted by Margot Kingston:
. opposition to minimum wage rises
. opposition to wage theft criminalisation
. opposition to protections for casual and gig workers
. support for winding back industrial relations workers rights
. the effective abolition of environmental protection laws
. the claim that climate change is a hoax
. increase defence spending (by double) to 5% of GPP
. and, perhaps, free land for Israelis to build lethal drones, and free islands for Elon Musk to build rockets rockets.

A baby elephant did everything it could to help a child in danger, refusing to give up despite its size.

Then an adult elephant stepped in, gently lifting the child back to safety with incredible care and strength.

Moments like this remind us that kindness, courage, and protection exist even in the wild❤️

Allegedly She’s a highschool dropout at 15. Has no degrees and no qualifications. So she has no formal profession from what I can find. This is worse than the status quo. We need to be more critical of the quality of people we should allow to be eligible for these high paying jobs in parliament.
Fancy speeches written by someone else, and regurgitated by these front spokesmen is not going to fix a broken economy. I will not vote for this. How can these politicians write laws when they don’t even have law degrees or don’t understand how the law operates. We need people in leadership with certain skills. This is not good enough.

The Sanewashing of Hanson Is at Its Peak.
This is how Trump came to power: platform the lies, skip the follow-up, let the headlines call it “proving her critics wrong.”
We are all watching it happen in real time.
At the National Press Club, Pauline Hanson said the following. Not one claim was challenged by the so called journalists in attendance and she continues to be unchallenged on the facts in every interview she sits.
-1. Unlike the Prime Minister, I welcome scrutiny.” Hypocritical. In the same speech she announced she refuses ABC interviews, will scrap the SBS, & will make the ABC subscription-only. The event allowed 2 hours; standard format gives 25–30 mins for the address. She spoke for 50-halving the time left for questions. When Guardian journalist Sarah Martin used that remaining time to ask about her daughter's $150,000 taxpayer-funded advisor role, Hanson called her “a trashy journalist” and banned her from all future press conferences.
• “Babies are aborted the day before birth.” Fabricated. Late-term abortion is highly restricted, requires medical approval, and occurs only in genuine medical emergencies.
• “Interest rates are heading towards 10%.” False. RBA cash rate: 4.35%. Forecast to fall, not rise.
• “There’s no gender pay gap — just women taking time off.” False. WGEA confirms the gap exists at equal hours, equal roles, regardless of career breaks.
• “$30B a year on Indigenous programs.” False. Only 18% (~$5.6B) is Indigenous-specific. The rest is the Indigenous share of mainstream services every Australian uses.
• Transgender people were compared to “militant Islam.” False and dangerous. ABS data: transgender and gender-diverse Australians make up 1% of the pop’n. There’s no body of research showing transgender ppl commit crime at elevated rates-in fact it shows transgender people are dramatically more likely to be victims of violence— assault, sexual violence, and homicide rates against trans people are well above general population rates in most studies (US, UK, and Aust data all show this pattern)
• “23% of Australians can’t speak English.” False. That 23% speak another language at home — most are bilingual. Limited English proficiency: just 3.2%.
• “The CEFC has had $200 billion.” False by a factor of six. Actual legislated capacity: $33 billion.
• “I care about the homeless and hungry.” Hypocritical. In the same speech, she backed cuts to Indigenous-specific funding — despite Aboriginal homelessness running up to 10 times higher than the non-Indigenous rate.
• $90 billion in cuts, no plan. ~$35 billion of it remains unaccounted for. No modelling.
• “I support worker rights.” False. Voted against minimum wage increases, penalty rates, criminalising wage theft, casual conversion rights, same job same pay, and the right to disconnect. Took a $100,000 pay rise while voting against a tax break for low-paid workers
• Called Australian workers “lazy.” She has attended just 12% of Senate estimates since 2016 & 53% of parliamentary votes. Paid over $200k a year
• Labor have let immigration get out of control.” False. Net overseas migration has fallen every year since the post-COVID peak in 2022-23 — 538,000 → 446,000 → 306,000 in 2024-25. She also recycled a 26-year-old ABS pop’n projection as a fresh “next 50 years” forecast

Said: This beautiful country belongs to all Australians born here and those who have joined us”- in her opening line; then spent the next 50 minutes demanding a monocultural society, comparing transgender Australians to militant Islam, inflating migration and language figures, denying the gender pay gap, and repeating the debunked $30 billion Indigenous funding myth. Welcomed everyone in the first sentence. Spent the rest of the speech defining most of them out — and offered no plan to fix anything she raised, only $90 billion in cuts.
Not one follow-up question. No source data on a single figure in the entire speech. This is what unchallenged looks like.

Farmers are reportedly furious that Pauline Hanson will ban Wind turbines and solar on farms. They want to know how/why she thinks she can dictate to them what happens on their land. This Trumpian behavior will cause much angst in the farming communities . https://t.co/WJixtzfQIi
