Our country is becoming increasingly harder to recognise.
What is happening to Australia?
Stand up for what is true.
Stand against all that is false.

The Putin-Trump relationship: Putin, a
man who built his career understanding the psychology of people so he could recruit them to spy for the KGB, must have been stunned by this latest Trump about-turn. My latest column

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff called Vladimir Putin a humanitarian directly to his face.

Vladimir Putin….a man who’s butchered thousands of Ukrainians, many of them women and children.

What a fucking disgrace this administration is.

Republicans have the House.
Republicans have the Senate.
Republicans have the Presidency.
Republicans have the Supreme Court.
Your grocery costs have gone up.
Your premiums have quadrupled.
Your gas tanks are empty.
Your safety is at risk in a war.
Your wages are down.
Republicans own this mess.
Vote accordingly.

If you’re curious how things are going in Australia, hasbarists are currently trying to sell the narrative that the attempted murder of a pro-Palestine, non-Jewish MP was actually an antisemitic attack.

MAGAs don't vote to improve their own lives, they vote to destroy the lives of the people they hate

Robin Williams warning the US about Donald Trump and his links to underage girls in Miss America Pageants in 2012.

Really should have listened.

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

When 12 people were killed in Charlie Hebdo attacks, world leaders thronged to Paris for a solidarity march

But no world leader has organised a march to protest killing over 100,000 people—25,000+ children, 300+ journalists, 2000+ health workers, 405 UN staff—in Gaza and Lebanon

[John Curtin Research Centre @curtin_rc]

🎙️ Following the shocking attack on independent MP Helen Haines, @KosSamaras delivers a blunt assessment of male violence, the abuse faced by women in public life and the appalling online reactions to the incident.

“Every 6.4 minutes in this country, a woman is assaulted in some form or another by a man.”

But Kos's most confronting message is directed at men themselves:

“The problem we have in society is that we have, as men, turned a blind eye to other men behaving appallingly.”

On the latest Curtin's Cast, Kos and Nick Dyrenfurth discuss political violence, the treatment of women and the deterioration of public debate.
