International Court of Justice finds Israelâs occupation of Palestinian territories unlawful, calls settlements illegal and urges their dismantling. The ruling stresses Palestiniansâ right to self-determination and demands states not support the occupation.
Way past time for Congressional Action to stop this war and impeach this war criminal President!

Greta Thunberg has thoughts about Trump wiping out whole civilizations & âWTF is anyone even doingâ
While elites flail or capitulate, it has been left to ordinary Americans to fight for democracy with everything they have. For @theguardian.com, six brief lessons gleaned from my near-decade of accidental activism for everyone looking to fight back against galloping authoritarianism.
Happy Birthday Kat. You are more than enough! Celebrate you.
I've written to the PM offering to pass a 25% gas export tax in the next two weeks.
Rich gas corps are making billions off this war, get gas for free, and pay almost no tax. That's money better spent helping people.
No more free ride for gas corps while people go backwards.
The US recently introduced a policy that not only aims to force the UN's gender equality work to fit the US mold, but also unilaterally circumvents standards that have been agreed in the UNSC and GA. In this Q&A, I explain how these conditions could look in practice.
This framing of war having a negative impact on the cost of living makes me wanna scream!
That petrol and groceries are the focus over the human cost is so unbearably grim.
I am sick of money being the measure of all worth in this world.
Fuck cost of living, I am worried about cost of lives.
Endless horror. Theyâre killing children.
Australia needs to read its own geography. As AU deepens its alignment with Washington through AUKUS & expanded military integration, it risks compromising the regional trust & autonomy that underpin its long-term prosperity & security.

A? UKUS are failing states.
An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.
Social cohesion or Social Rapture as Albo continues to big note himself with a growing cabal of foreign actors at an unforgivable cost to Country & its citizens?

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

Adjusted image of Australian Aboriginal Flag with text "Not a Date to Celebrate".
26 January - not a date to celebrate. Why would you expect people to celebrate a day that marks the beginning of what amounts to the invasion and takeover of their country and now our 237 years of still not listening, not walking alongside and living together in this place we all want to call home.

2026 TASPride Parade coming down Elizabeth St in nipaluna (Hobart).
Pride Parade Hobart Tasmania today was amazing - such good vibes. Always good to be here and proud!
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."
US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:
"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."
Why are the menâs names redacted and the victims names exposed?
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistâbecause the person felt she did didnât deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

These ICE agents should be arrested for Child Abuse!
Ilhan Omar walks along a sidewalk wearing a blazer, with people blurred in the background.
Ilhan Omar: âIn the 4 years when Biden was president, my death threats went to almost zero â now they are back up â so there is a clear correlation between his presidency & the political violence that we see & the political danger that a lot of members of Congress & electeds feel across the countryâ
Australiaâs sovereign wealth fund, the Future Fund, has invested over $100 million in Palantir

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itâs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
