@BigGuyHimself @JohnRileyPoway @RichardHanania Well, he voted "yes," as you put it, 75% of the time and voted "no" in good conscience.

@JohnRileyPoway @RichardHanania Voting no on everything and using your position to do nothing but attack people for your own ego isn’t a viable governing strategy

Massie goes down!!! Victory for everyone who doesn't think you should appeal to the lowest natures in politics. Trump Cult saves us for once.

@Bradfield1975 Your farm must not be that modest. Obviously, the home and an area around it are exempt assets. The remainder of your property must be fairly substantial to not meet the asset test.

At the age of 16 I became a high school dropout and entered the workforce… 50 years of continuous work later I am retired on my modest farm, because I own it I’m not entitled to a pension! Albo owns multiple properties and will receive a generous pension! How is that fair?

@somanyclownslol @oldiceSk8r @NickJFuentes But have you seen his gold sneakers?

@oldiceSk8r @NickJFuentes I guarantee you’re poor. I’m not one of the ones your generation managed to fuck over. Don’t come at me

Israel used their control over Trump and their Jewish money to destroy Massie because he went against their agenda. There is no denying that Trump’s GOP is nothing more than a front for Israel and it has to be destroyed for America First to prevail.

@MorganThomas32 @Polymarket The vast majority of Aussie publoc servants are state level employees. Good luck weaning them off that bloat.

A lot of public sectors world wide are very top heavy with people. For instance, in 1919, at the British Empore territorial peak, there were 50,000 bureaucrats managing over a billion people and governments. Today, although the UK is now responsible for only 75 million, it’s 500,000 bureaucrats in place. Too much government isn’t efficient…

JUST IN: New Zealand announces it will cut 14% of public service jobs over the next four years to save money.

@UkraineSkeptic @Ejaculationer @MattH_4America Because sometimes people are wrong. If no one is left to call it out it is a cult, not party anymore.

@Ejaculationer @MattH_4America Why was it wrong of me to want a united Republican congressional team ?? Politics is a team sport. If one person goes rougue then it can ultimately destroy everything we worked for. Americas future is too important.

If Thomas Massie loses tonight, there will be no "MAGA" left - it's dead, it's gone It will just be Trump, a golden ballroom, and plenty of Kool-Aid for the boomers to drink while they are watching Sean Hannity or Mark Levin And then in 2026 and 2028, we will get our revenge

@pdqshane @FoxNews Open corruption is so good.

@FoxNews Thank God done with the malicious persecution of President Trump, and hopefully that goes for the same American people that have been maliciously pounded and persecuted by the government too.

BREAKING: Acting AG Todd Blanche signed an order Tuesday barring the IRS from examining President Trump’s prior tax returns and blocking the agency from pursuing pending claims against Trump, his family or his businesses.

@Timcast @Bryansix Unless you accidentally received Russian money.

@Bryansix Of course, and then I studied. I'm not accidentally a multimillionaire

IQ test You enter a casino and head to roullete. The wheel lands on red 57% out of the last 30 spins. Which color should you bet on next?

@ihsetan @craigkellyAFEE Most reputable companies don't want their content next to unmoderated comments on a site with nearly zero safeguards. To achieve what? Sway with the bot armies, homebound weirdos, grifting scumbags and only fans promoters that inhabit this place? Yeah, Nah

@craigkellyAFEE This is all part of the global effort by leftist media to remove power from X. The EU is trying to do the same, even going so far as to set up their own social media app.

THE ABC IS BREAKING THE LAW — AND THUMBING ITS NOSE AT AUSTRALIANS By deliberately refusing to post on X — where the ABC has 2.6 million followers — and instead pumping out content on BlueSky (where it scrapes together a pathetic 1,000), the ABC is openly flouting its legal obligations under the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Act 1983. Section 6(1) of the Act demands the ABC provide “comprehensive broadcasting services.” Hiding from the platform where millions of Australians actually get their news, while posting on an obscure, far-left echo chamber with less than 1/100th of the reach, is not “comprehensive” — it is an arrogant, deliberate betrayal of their statutory duty. Worse still, Section 8(1) requires the Board to ensure the ABC performs its functions "efficiently" and delivers the "maximum benefit to the people of Australia" Creating social media content for either platform takes exactly the same time, effort, and taxpayer resources. Yet the ABC chooses to post it only on the tiny platform with a handful of followers while deliberately boycotting X. This is not mere inefficiency — it is wilful waste and a direct violation of the ABC’s legal obligations. The ABC has chosen to waste taxpayers’ money pandering to a tiny clique of left-wing activists on a failing platform. Even the eSafety Commissioner admitted BlueSky is so insignificant it didn’t warrant inclusion in the under-16 social media ban. Yet the ABC treats this irrelevant vanity project as more important than reaching its actual audience. This is not incompetence. This is ideological sabotage by a captured, contemptuous organisation that holds ordinary Australians in open disdain. The ABC Board and management don’t care about their legal obligations. They are actively thumbing their nose at Parliament, at taxpayers, and at the Australian public — giving us all the middle finger because they know the Albanese government will shield them from any consequences. If the ABC wants to operate like a propaganda outfit, then let it survive on subscribers alone — and post wherever its dwindling clique of followers wants. But while it takes a single cent of public money, it has a legal and moral duty to serve all Australians, not just its ideological masters. The rot inside the ABC has metastasised so deeply that reform is impossible. This latest violation of its legal obligations is just the latest in a long list. It’s well past it’s used by date, and it’s time for the ABC be defunded. No Australian taxpayer should be forced to subsidise this level of blatant malfeasance, bias, and contempt.

@jarethkennedy @melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB Yeah they are in part banking on an immigration slow down they aren't doing much to bring about

@Bertram009 @melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB Indeed. And if you look at historical evidence of what forecasts we missed with housing we're in big trouble.

I love How the usual suspects when asked how they would be worse off under the Government's proposed tax changes Can't actually explain, how they would actually be worse off Granfathering It's almost like their angry about something else But don't have the guts to tell you

@jarethkennedy @melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB 100%. Good in theory but reality is often not cooperative lol

@Bertram009 @melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB Their build targets are what, 240k homes per year, which we know will fall short. Add population growth to that mix and we're short on supply. And that's not even mentioning the existing rental supply tightening. Time will tell.

@melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB At least that is the theory. Hard to say if it pans out that way- lots of things are good in theory

@melanietaylor2 @SimonBanksHB From new builds incentivized by the policy. Negative gearing is now restricted to new homes (from July 2027), plus CGT changes and a $2B infrastructure fund to unlock ~65k dwellings. The idea: shift investors from existing stock to new supply, freeing up homes for first buyers.

@SefffSav @AmeliaBee7 She lives overseas. If she doesn't care enough to live here then we don't need her opinion. Quitters can piss off.

@AmeliaBee7 Abuse don't cut it Try being smart n come up with something positive

If pointless, attention-starved irrelevance was a person…👇

@MrHawkeFan This is correct but ignores the fact that the ceiling may be similar, but the floor has risen.

Australia's top statutory tax rate on capital gains was, before and after the budget, 47%.

@SteveMihajlo @TheKouk @cotality_au I think that is overly pessimistic. Prices are more likely to simply decline a very little and grow slower rather than Aussies being affected by negative equity at any scale.

@TheKouk @cotality_au Good work Albo. Now all those people who bought a property for 5% deposit will learn the meaning of "Negative Equity". Maybe big ear Jim can explain it to them after he looks it up on google first.

House prices looking weak: Demand cooling, supply up & it looks like a weaker labour mkt impacting. May, month to date: SYD -0.3% MEL -0.4% BRI +0.5% ADE +0.3% PER +1.0% 5 cities 0.0% Via @cotality_au

@El_FreedomFairy @ozsats256 Well done. As soon as you can, you should renounce your Australian citizenship.

@ozsats256 I have a one way ticket out of the country in two weeks time. Can’t wait.

I’m a 23 year old Aussie Bitcoiner. With the way Australia is going, I am hesitant to build my life here… I want to be able to buy a home, have a family, raise my kids without crazy gender politics, give back to my community, and be somewhere where people (at least to some extent) see the world similarly to me. If you were in my position, where would you consider moving?

@RobbieBarwick It is actually means-tested welfare. Your parents paid for their parents, you will pay for your parents, and so on. It is not a contributions-based entitlement. Every generation of workers takes on the burden (not in a bad way) of the previous one.

Message for Angus Taylor: The aged pension is not welfare. Just because the major parties tried to privatise the aged pension through compulsory superannuation - which hasn't worked - it's still a right that reflects the contribution the elderly made to the country.

@lesbeyonsay People are just using his appearance to attack Clav as he is all about appearance. You put it out there, it tends to come back.

and you can argue that you assume he's good bc he's a judge but like, it's yt judges (and a c**n) taking away people's rights rn at the Supreme court.

this kinda proving clavicular's point that being attractive will get you anywhere... y'all don't know this guys opinions or political leanings but assume he's good bc he's attractive hskhkd😭

@GilesWatch @DaveSharma US is also in a national debt spiral

@DaveSharma Canada and NZ reduced immigration to solve their housing crises, Singapores housing market is almost entirely state run. UK and US also suffering from unaffordable housing, Israel not even deserving of recognition in this discussion. Got any more cherry picked countries?

Tax on investment gains 🇳🇿 NZ: 0% 🇸🇬 Singapore: 0%  🇨🇦 Canada: 27% max 🇬🇧 UK: 20% – 24% max 🇺🇸 US: 20% max 🇮🇱 Israel: 25% (Standard) ❌❌ 🇦🇺 Australia: 30% - 47% Labor’s new minimum capital gains tax is HIGHER than the max in most nations. Higher taxes = less investment.

@Nowax34 @rowanfornow Someone so openly obsessed with appearance just attracts similar behavior/criticism.

@rowanfornow We act strongly about it because we’ve been gaslighted constantly. Especially seeing the judge get praised for just looking hotter than Clav, like I don’t get the point, Should we give up and accept genetic determinism? I imagine that’s equally harmful of a message to young men.

is the looksmaxxing goal to look hot or to look like specifically Clavicular
