Coal seam gas is a massive disaster.

@BohuslavskaKate Crazy assholes is being polite, they are the scum of the earth

ZELENSKYY: We attack military targets in Russia, or their energy, which they sell to fund war. Russians deliberately target civilian objects: museums, schools, apartments. They destroyed this Chornobyl museum that we built for 40th anniversary just one month ago. Crazy assholes.

BREAKING: Israel just dropped bombs on the Qaraoun Dam in Lebanon’s Beqaa Valley — a key water reservoir serving civilian populations across surrounding villages. This is not a battlefield target. It is a critical water infrastructure. This is an act of genocide.

Hanson is too busy standing up for mining and fossil fuel companies to stand up for the battlers that she tells us she really does stand up for. She only works for the oligarch

Just pay for it yourself, Sen Bridget McKenzie. All Australians wish your son & bride the absolute, very best. Are you short of a quid? No, then use your personal bank account to book flights & accommodation. We Australians do it all the time. #auspol skynews.com.au/australia-news…

Stephen Colbert was awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. A fitting honor for a champion of our democracy. RETWEET to congratulate Colbert on this honor!

Hey Ken Paxton : I am an ex Waco child abuse prosecutor. And while you are focused on bathroom stalls, I am focused on why you allowed Adam Hoffman sodomize a child and he is still a member in good standing of the Texas Bar.👇

Australia now has the world’s strongest economy and some of its weakest economic reporting. Coverage of the latest Federal Budget exposed just how far standards in Australia’s media have declined. The Budget data showed Australia remains one of the strongest-performing advanced economies on Earth. It is currently the only country with unemployment and inflation both below 4.7%, median adult wealth above US$250,000, triple-A credit ratings from all major agencies, moderate interest rates, and government debt below 25% of GDP. On top of that, the Budget introduced reforms aimed at tackling long-standing structural inequities changes that many economists argue were overdue. In most countries, results like these would dominate headlines and strengthen public confidence. Instead, much of Australia’s media responded with outrage, fear campaigns and ideological attacks. Headlines warned of “budget debacles”, “dire consequences”, “war on wealth”, and “further pain”, while largely ignoring Australia’s globally leading economic performance. Much of the commentary relied on the same recycled narratives that have dominated economic reporting for years narratives that often collapse under scrutiny. Claim: Living standards are falling. Reality: Living standards dipped globally after COVID, including in Australia, but key indicators have rebounded strongly since 2023. Australians are travelling overseas in record numbers, spending more on dining, retail and discretionary goods, and consumer activity has surged. Claim: Wages are going backwards. Reality: Real wages were hit during the inflation spike that followed the pandemic, but wage growth has now outpaced inflation. Since late 2023, wages, pensions and welfare payments have all risen faster than consumer prices. Claim: Australia is a high-tax country. Reality: Australia remains one of the lower-taxed advanced economies. The GST is just 10%, far below consumption taxes across much of Europe, while Australia’s total tax-to-GDP ratio sits near the bottom of the OECD. Claim: Labor keeps increasing taxes. Reality: IMF data places Australia among the lowest-taxing developed economies in both 2025 and 2026. Claim: Labor is anti-business. Reality: Business profits outside mining have reached record highs, while employment and expansion across many sectors continue to grow. Claim: Labor spends recklessly. Reality: Spending as a share of GDP under Anthony Albanese remains below levels seen under several previous governments, including the Morrison Government. Claim: Business investment is collapsing. Reality: Investment stagnated during the Coalition years but has resumed growth under the current government. The bigger issue is what this says about Australia’s media culture. Economic reporting increasingly resembles political campaigning rather than factual analysis. Too often, selective statistics, misleading framing and emotionally loaded commentary replace balanced reporting. When positive economic outcomes are ignored while fear and outrage dominate coverage, it damages public trust, distorts national debate and weakens social cohesion. Australia’s economy is not perfect. Productivity, housing affordability and inequality remain serious challenges. But pretending the country is in economic collapse despite internationally strong results does not inform the public. It misleads them.

VLC is amazing

Australia’s THIRD BIGGEST taxpayer, Fortescue Mining, HAS managed to electrify its diesel trucks and install solar farms to power them so BHP has no excuse other than willful misinformation to justify their denial of tech transformation. BHP lies. #4Corners #auspol
