@japan_nobunaga Same crazy behaviour in Australia!

“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…”

Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share.

This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating:

“Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.

A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.

A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.

A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.

A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.

You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth.
More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea.

In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything.
They’re simply too poor to afford bail.

Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening.

Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s.

Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends.

Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years.

Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.

And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster.

And you call Greenland badly governed?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment.

‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’

When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?

Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.

Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU.

Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years.

And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess.

You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy.

So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan.

The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.

And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

@McFaul I watched the video of them shaking hands today. On the left was a toady. On the right was a man who only has interests.

@UAPReportingCnt Wasn’t it called the Department of Defense in 1994?

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

Rubio declares that U.S. efforts to negotiate between Russia and Ukraine "has not led to a fruitful outcome for a variety of reasons" and have now "stagnated."

​Really? Maybe they stagnated because the strategy of pressuring the victim to surrender to an aggressor, who would almost certainly murder us under occupation, was stillborn from the start. Perhaps, instead, you could try putting pressure on Russia and arming Ukraine to make this war unbearable for the ones actually choosing to wage it every day?

@MykhailoRohoza @JaneCaro I guess he ignored the free press which is essential.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

Kash Patel spent 10 months investigating a seashell photo before making an arrest.

He has spent more than a year refusing to arrest a single Epstein client named in the files.

That is the choice. That is the priority.

[Nikki Haley @NikkiHaley]

America just crossed a dangerous milestone: our national debt now exceeds the size of our economy. Washington spends $1.33 for every $1 it takes in, with a $1.9T deficit this year alone. When the bill comes due, expect higher taxes, a weaker dollar, fewer services, a weaker military—and our kids stuck paying for it.

@BleacherReport Looks like JB could have passed to OG under the basket instead of trying to hit Hart. Tough one.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

Asked his thoughts on whether Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker serving 20 years, should be pardoned, Republican Oversight Chairman James Comer said, “A lot of people do.”

Name them, Chairman.

Say out loud which Republicans on your committee or otherwise think a woman who groomed 14 year old girls for Jeffrey Epstein should walk free.

Comer’s other move is to stop holding real hearings so no one can be put under oath and no one can be held in contempt.

Every member of Congress, every parent, every survivor deserves better than floating a pardon for a child sex trafficker and a committee hiding behind roundtables.

This is not oversight. This is a disgrace.

General McCasland walks out of his house. No phone. No keys. Gone.

Months earlier, others tied to the same Los Alamos work did the exact same thing.

Four people. Same pattern. Five months.

Something isn’t right. @NewstalkSTL

An Aussie reply to Trump’s rant about ‘NATO not being there for us’:

“Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.

You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.

Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.

Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.

And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.

And you're calling Greenland poorly run?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.

"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.

And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.

So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth.”

Minister for Defence @RichardMarlesMP, your silence on Petition EN7396 isn’t a policy, it’s an evasion.

The 90-day window to respond closed months ago. The Westall witnesses who have lived with their experience for 60 years, along with the 831 signatories, deserve answers, not a stonewall.

We are still waiting for a credible explanation regarding:

❌ What was observed in the sky above Westall High School on 6 April 1966

❌ Why there was a rapid military response following the incident

❌ Why witnesses were intimidated and told to stay quiet about what they saw

❌ Why evidence was confiscated

❌ Why a comprehensive report by The Department of Supply has never seen the light of day

Under your leadership, the Department of Defence’s refusal to address these questions is a slap in the face to transparency.

We expect you to honor the democratic process and provide a written response to Petition EN7396.

When can we expect it?
