@tedcruz I proudly stood in the way of your AI-data center amendment to the Big Beautiful Bill that would have given those companies immunity from the law. In fact, @mtgreenee and I got it stripped from the bill. Did your big tech cronies still let you cash their checks after you failed?

Why has Julie Bishop’s hurried exit from ANU been hushed up?

Not a fucking peep heard from Albo or Wong so far, but as far as I can ascertain, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Canada, and Portugal have already summoned Israeli ambassadors and diplomats for a shirtfronting. South Korea, Turkey, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Germany have issued harsh statements. Read more: ronbaumann.au/blogged/flotil…

All true Elon. But please help we earthlings conserve our wafer thin biosphere to preserve life for all species (flora and fauna). Mars and beyond is only an option for those who can afford one of your hydroponic penthouses.

Don’t be daft. The older I get the more self serving I realise the right is.

Rich beyond the wildest dreams of avarice .. but still they complain about a fairer CGT >> ‘Go live in Trumpistan’: Investor blasts rich peers over CGT complaints afr.com/technology/mov…

Experts have slammed the AI-Albo social media campaign against CGT changes as “rubbish” saying the changes are actually “important”💥 Adelaide Miller reveals even the organisers now admit they left out the truth “bcoz they wanted the post to go viral.” Utterly shameless. #auspol

WOW! Thomas Massie and Tucker just gave the president a primary truth of their own. Massie went off on Trump. He said the White House dragged Lauren Boebert into an interrogation room to bully her into removing her name from the Epstein petition. Massie says Trump told Marjorie Taylor Greene to her face that the death threats against her kids were her fault. He blamed the victim and called her out for getting threats. Massie called him despicable to his face. $32 million from Trump's billionaire buddies to crush one congressman for asking about Epstein files. You know, billionaire buddies like Elon Musk—who's in the Epstein files himself. The "law and order" party, everybody. Blame the moms, protect the predators, and let the billionaires buy the silence.

A must read for those sick of the flood of political disinformation in Aus and its list of funders…

Conflict of vested interest is now blatant in Rupert/Lachlan Murdoch’s NewsC outlets’ coordinated smearing of the federal government’s negative gearing/CGT reforms to arrest market distortion. Murdochs have majority share in REA Group, Australia’s biggest property market website.

@PaulineHansonOz Parliamentary staff are for Parliamentary business, not fund raising or party political business. Staff numbers are determined by seat numbers. If your phone is ringing, Pet, why not try answering it.

@EVERALDATLARGE The Labor majority may well mean this is the only time that desperate budget reform is possible. The Libs wouldn’t do it and we can’t keep the Costello’s structural deficit in there lumping more and more debt on future generations. Now or never.

Leo XIII passed away in 1903.

Just remember this: John Howard hated working class punters, he proved it time and time again, Work Choices, CGT, Negative gearing, and Franking Credits. While we were getting up early every day to earn a crust, paying our taxes he designed all these rorts for the filthy rich. 😡

You really are getting more bitter by the day Cammy. Calm the fuck down. MP's do this all the time on their taxpayer-funded private plated cars. We can show you numerous Liberals who have, but you go for Chris because he's eating your lunch. But your OBSESION with the man who beat you in the election (well, we can't actually say beat you, because your result was almost a non-runner with the minuscule result you got, but anyway) is really becoming a sickness. FACTS: Chris Bowen. Latest expenses, INCLUDING the insurance excess: Jan-Mar 2026: Private-Plated Vehicle: $4,118.60 SUSSAN LEY. Latest expenses, private car only Jan-Mar 2026: Private-Plated Vehicle: $10,401.01 SUMMARY: Chris Bowen claimed $6,284.00 LESS than Sussan Ley in the same period. THAT IS 39% of her private car expenses. Your own obsession and bitterness over Chris Bowen led you to this post where we have completely annihilated your dig at Chris. And in the process, you demonstrated how absolutely unwell you are with this fixation on Chris Bowen. Seriously, Matty, you are really not well. He's not only living in your head rent-free, but he's in your gas tank, Clare O'Neil is in your fridge, Chris is on your mind when you cook, sleep, rant and likely when you... You know. SEE. A. DOCTOR.

@BilsonhBilson @SkyNewsAust I don't understand as a paye tradesmen why my earnings are taxed at the marginal rate but these so called investors believe only half of their income should be taxable, must have missed something somewhere.

I'm not going to allow BS to go through to the keeper regarding the extremely sensible CGT changes proposed by @JEChalmers. Tonight, I listened to an accountant tell a group of people that someone on a $40k income pays $3,200 in tax on a capital gain of about $40k. I called BS, asking what % of people on $40k have the cash to invest to make such a significant capital gain. He had to concede that his example was an exaggeration of proposals that were not even legislated. This example is the same BS the LNP/ ONP/ Rinehart/ Murdochracy coalition is trying to spin to the 95% of the population who carry the tax burden. It’s Time the 5% pay proper tax.
