“In Australia we don’t tax [the gas] industry. It’s foreign owned, and other people in the rest of the world are making a fortune out of Australia’s fossil fuel exports.
“And we’re the ones going ‘Gee, the air conditioning is a bit expensive’”.

So TACO Tuesday in the U.S. again? All that winning…in the stock market.
Palantir is embedding itself in other Australian institutions from Coles, to Rio Tinto. Westpac, our military cyber unit, the Australian Signals Directorate, the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission and AUSTRAC, which handles Aussies’ sensitive financial information.
Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.
Well then start taxing the gas companies the 25% you fool! - Stop faffing about and get on with it! #auspol
What Anne said - just in case you needed any further reasoning to hate the U.S. more. Complicit warmongers.
Cut. The. Cord.

I’m so tired, are you tired?
Lawyer Nick Hanna and the Palestine Action Group celebrating outside court today
NSW's fascistic anti-protest laws, enacted after Bondi and to allow Isaac Herzog, a war criminal, to tour without opposition, have been defeated in court today. The Appeals court found the laws "impermissibly burden" implied constitutional rights. From the river to the sea.
A minimum 25% tax on gas exports would bring in $17 billion a year. That is $348.9 million flowing into the public purse every single week.
Instead, that wealth is being siphoned off by multinational corporations making record war profits
The Greens have made it clear the CEOs of our major gas exporters must front our inquiry into gas tax.
Australians are being ripped off while multinational gas giants continue to make record profits. It's time they stopped writing the rules and started playing by them.
Here here!
Cut. The. Cord.

Australia needs an independent defence policy that makes us safer, not one that ties us closer to unhinged billionaires like Trump.
We should not be locking ourselves deeper into US weapons systems and dependence on a country whose politics can shift overnight.
“…disorganised, chaotic, dysfunctional, politically incorrect..” sums up the redhead party to a T. The Right are an ever imploding house of cards. Diabolical. #auspol
He’s not reaching - he’s already crawling at the bottom of the barrel with the sludge.
I see Angus has been studying the Oligarchy playbook again. #auspol
Put your money on the Pope.
If I’ve learnt anything this week - it’s that Trump is a liar and a loser, he bears no treaty, and because of this tool I no longer trust the U.S.
I read the news today, Oh! Boy….
There are plenty of Right Wing buttholes around the world crying at this joke right now as they weren’t included in this joke!
The second most heinous person on the planet behind the Israeli PM just posted a snuff video.
Cut the cord Australia now!

We need PM Albanese to change course and cut ties with bloodthirsty warmongers like Trump and Netanyahu.
If Labor keeps licking their boots, the bombs will keep dropping, the invasion won’t end, and the bloodshed will continue.
If not now, when?
Labor’s repeated, pathetic attempts to voice ‘concern’ mean nothing while they continue the two-way arms trade with Israel, embed troops in US forces, and call the US and Israel a ‘friend’.
Israel is doing everything it can to destroy hopes for peace as it launches a criminal wave of bombings on Lebanon overnight. They have killed more than 250 people and injured over 1,000 more. Global sanctions, global action, is needed, now.
So do you think this is all over? Israel is currently turning Lebanon into Gaza 2.0. The world just seems to be just standing by and watching it happen. #auspol

Can’t say that I didn’t tell you all this a few days ago. #auspol #howpredictable
Labor’s reckless decision to back the US and Israeli strikes, send troops and missiles, and refusal to call out Trump has consequences.
Licking the boots of the US makes us all less safe.
End AUKUS. Close US bases. Withdraw Australian troops.
Trump's threats are putting millions of lives at risk.
This genocidal rhetoric sets a dangerous standard - one the Labor government seems happy to accept.
Australia needs to pull out of AUKUS and stop positioning ourselves alongside such violent bullies.
TACO strikes again
