We're doubling billions in funding for drone defences to bring us up to speed on 'weapons of modern warfare'. And no one is defining who these modern warfare weapons would be used against?
And meanwhile - Australians can't afford food, housing and required medical care.

The Queensland Premier has again demonstrated his finest leadership instincts by slipping into hi-vis, hard hat and pointing at the horizon while Queenslander's grapple with a fuel crisis.
It has emerged that the Crisafulli Government has yet to submit the actual paperwork
Better yet...

On which TV quiz show are these contestants?
The Weakest Link? Jeopardy? Deal Or No Deal? ...
Penises got smaller at the same rate.
Fear not. Vera's team is on the case and before day's end we'll know definitively whether the Strait of Hormuz is open or shut.

Single frame. Prayer session in the Oval Office. Trump’s team laying hands on Trump, as his pastor says, “O Lord, cast out those misguided religious leaders who would dare to meddle in our politics…”
Let us pray.

Big announcement by BYD.
30,000 EVs and hybrids prioritised for "essential workers who need cost-effective transport to get around.
These include doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals, teachers, social workers, police, fire, ambulance and SES volunteers."
Great piece, @robbieb.bsky.social
He's SO right.
What a legacy for Uni bosses... to lay waste to our cultural landscape? Silence the voices of the next generation?.
Is this what you signed on for??
WRONG WAY!
GO BACK!
Is the success in the room with us now?
Just a reminder that Angus Taylor slipped the term “genocidal protesters” into his anti-immigration racist rant last week.
Does anyone here know anyone who is protesting FOR genocide?
Proud of Barbra Streisand for speaking out against Vance & Trump. She’s spot on! 💯
in case you do not have music nerds in your life to inform you of the joyful mind bending tectonic shift that is Angine de Poitrine, please enjoy, and understand you will never be the same again

What a great game of football. That’s a huge win for Melbourne beating the reigning premiers. Jim Stynes would be looking down with a great big smile on his face. #AFLDeesLions
Good coffee & morning lovelies☕️, dogs taking me for a walk in the new hood (Taungurung Land, North Victoria). Downsized to a unit, but this beautiful reserve runs along the back fence, accessed directly from a gate in rear courtyard, full of birds and nature💜
The midterms are later this year. Several republican reps have already stated they won't be running again. So they probs want to make $ while they can. And those up for re-election are waiting to see how their constituencies feel about Trump. They will want his endorsement until it hurts them.
I think you are both onto something.
Yes, how come all of this is so obvious to us but seemingly totally not able to be understood by the American Congress.
The President of the United States is prolonging an illegal war that's hurting people all over the world and likely will lead to a global recession, so he can manipulate the stock market and make himself and his mates billions of $. And the US Congress is unwilling to do a single thing to stop him.

A political cartoon by Megan Herbert showing an assembly of renewable energy solutions - solar panels, battery storage, high speed rail, electrified truck freight, EVs and charging infrastructure, wind turbines, and bicycles - put together in a shape that resembles a military tank. A different approach to a massive increase in military spending that would increase Australia's security and sovereignty in times of global unrest.
Best defence.

So much presidenting. He's gonna be presidenting so much you may even get tired of him presidenting and you'll say please please it's too much presidenting we can't take it anymore.
I once watched Australia's ABC News all day. Or listened to ABC RN. I no longer do bc I no longer trust #ourABC. It's defiant refusal to report Israel's crimes is complicity. Our ABC rptedly fails to report events or blatantly platforms Israeli propaganda #JournalismMatters #Palestine #Lebanon #Iran
"—beside Taylor—was Mr Racial Opportunism himself; John Winston Howard, late of anti-Asian migration in 1988—the picket fence suburban racism of his first round as Liberal leader, & the wilful anti-humanitarianism of his electorally-driven Tampa atrocity of 2001."
