I think a billion people across the Western alliance are beginning to spot the tiny design flaw in buying American weapons under Trump: when the enemy arrives, your F-35 may be perfectly capable of fighting them, right up until Washington decides your login privileges are under review.

Then you can sit in your $100 million fighter jet, admire the warning screen, and wait while Trump makes a deal with the bloke attacking you.

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@IAPonomarenko Bodes well for any future AUKUS submarines and current F35 fighters that the US administration can just turn them off when they feel like it. #justsayn

NSW Premier Chris Minns would like everyone to stop sharing the image that depicts him as an Israeli Mossad agent wearing Israeli military uniform and surrounded by surveillance cameras and drones.

Minns insists he has no ties to the Israeli government.

[Dr Monique Ryan MP @Mon4Kooyong]

The Albanese Government is the most secretive federal government we've had in decades.

It protects lobbyists, keeps ministerial diaries closed, and has repeatedly made FoI requests more challenging and more expensive.

We need to put a stop to the bully boy tactics the Albanese Government is using in the courts, by threatening those seeking transparency with massive legal costs. We have to support those who are looking to hold the government to account for its spending and its decision-making.

@PeterWMurphy1 @AlboMP @AustralianLabor @DavidShoebridge @Greens I cannot support any party that sides with Putin and abandons Ukrainiane

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@DavidShoebridge And yet you sided with Putin and want to abandon Ukraine?

[Robert Barwick @RobbieBarwick]

1. The CIA, for toppling Whitlam after he established the Petroleum and Minerals Authority (PMA) in 1974.
2. Fraser, for abolishing said PMA.
3. Howard in 1979, for making Aussies pay the world, not domestic, price of oil.
4. Every government from 1970s to now who didn't establish a mandatory 90-day reserve.
5. Australian Institute of Petroleum (Big Oil) which claimed in 2014 we didn't need a 90-day reserve.
6. Angus Taylor for faking an increased reserve in the USA.
7. Albanese for selling Taylor's fake increase.
8. Trump for attacking Iran.
9. Albanese, Taylor and Hanson for supporting Trump's illegal, immoral and unprovoked attack on Iran.
10. Albanese for preferring bandaids to an all-out mobilisation to establish real fuel security.

@MickamiousG Because the world’s most effective fighting force right now has at least that in value to help us prepare for the next conflict. I for one believe we should do more. Close our embassy and send the SAS to help Ukraine dismantle a few bridges illegally built.

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@AngusTaylorMP Give us a gas tax send the lobbyists packing fix your own corruption and then talk to us about the other side

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@Hal_Turner_Show @WarMonitor3 You frame this like an abusive husband justifies their abuse. Nations have their own agency. Ukraine can decide its own future. If it seeks to join a mutual defence alliance because it believes it it threatened it is only reasonable. Russias 3 day war is of course going to plan

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@Tony_Burke the IDF have no business in travelling to Australia for any reason and if they do they should be arrested upon landing. To invite them is to become complicit to their crimes.

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@philmupp1 I have lost confidence in them.

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@SenatorWong @AUSinUA ‘Honor the bravery’ by closing the Russian embassy and our borders to Russia

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@RainEden2 @danpakko @melodiousqueef The choices on the other side are just as bad. A weak opposition, lacking integrity, wisdom, their own unifying vision for a better Australia. What we got offered was Temu Trump or an equally banal reflection of Labor with a blue logo

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@danpakko A government that was not devoid of talent, which had a number of impressive, decent, innovative and experienced individuals, but who were utterly neutered & poorly led to become accomplices in a banal, beige government lacking courage, ideas, integrity or wisdom

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

Now is the time for all parlimentarians who are not corrupt to make a stand. You know who you are. Stop the rot, slam the door on political donations and legislate in the national interest, Gas Tax, Gambling, Terminate or Truncate AUKUS

[Daniel Paxton @danpakko]

I feel a HUGE groundswell of support ready to break through to the mainstream for Greens & Independents at the next election.

We’re sick of the ALP tying us to AUKUS, Segal, Zionism, Trump, Iran War, genocide, & lobby groups AGAINST OUR INTERESTS.

Time to
RECLAIM OUR NATION

[Mark Kenny @markgkenny.bsky.social @markgkenny]

On the money.

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

What a fantastic morning at the AUKUS Public Inquiry in Sydney. Malcolm Turnbull, Bob Carr and unions making compelling case against AUKUS.

[Simon Spencer @nomisruption]

@dannynoeljackso @JohnRowsthorne @irenenog I think you meant to say and bring in a gas tax

[Daniel Paxton @danpakko]

ALP voters:
“Ditch AUKUS, Sack Jillian Segal, acknowledge the genocide, stand up to Trump and Netanyahu, ban gambling advertising, ban donations from lobby groups who dictate your policy, reinstate Ed Husic, listen to your constituents”
ALP:
“No. But, please vote for us anyway”
