@AaronDodd @PhilipThalis @Peter_Fitz Where did that thought bubble come from?

@Peter_Fitz Why would a new centrist Teal Party want Sharma, when he posts idiocies like this? #auspol x.com/DaveSharma/sta…

Thoughts? I think it is the obvious move. And get people like Bridget Archer, Dave Sharma and Julian Leeser to join them. #Auspol Teal independents Allegra Spender and Zali Steggall lead push to form new centrist political party smh.com.au/politics/feder…

@elonmusk Quoting someone from the dustbin of failed economic theorists says it all.

What are your views on this? Do you agree?

If you give a politician $5 to influence a vote, it’s bribery. If billionaires spend $50 million to influence an election, it’s legal. That is what a corrupt campaign finance system looks like.

Israel just executed Ali in Arab Salim, South Lebanon. Not a fighter. Nor armed. He was a paramedic. On the frontline saving lives. Israel bombed him. Then bombed him again — in a double tap strike — to finish the job. What part of this is “self-defense” exactly?

The "death tax" scare campaign is the laziest dog whistle in the playbook. Here are the facts straight from the Budget papers and ATO: Inheritance isn't taxed. Estates aren't taxed. Farms are exempt. Small business CGT concessions are retained in full. Existing testamentary trusts are grandfathered. Fixed testamentary trusts can still be set up for new wills at zero extra tax. The only change: new discretionary testamentary trusts created after 12 May 2026 will pay a 30% minimum on trust income from 2028. There are about 10,500 testamentary trusts in Australia — 1% of all trusts. And only the discretionary, income-splitting variety set up from now on is caught. 30% is what a nurse on $80k already pays on her top dollar. The Right isn't defending battlers. They're defending the tax planning industry that lets wealth split income across grandkids and bucket companies to pay less than wage earners on the same money. If you want to leave assets to your kids, nothing stops you. What's stopping is the loophole.

@DavidPocock @QuentinDempster He doesn’t acknowledge the investment made by the companies that develop these resources but something is wrong when they can export our resources and then sell them on at a higher price to third parties.

I don't think it's fair for the government to change the tax rules for Australians and Australian small businesses but rule out changing the tax settings for major multinational companies from data centres to the gas industry. Australians deserve a fair return. Go to ourgas.com.au and join the call for a 25% tax on gas exports.

@melovesHawthorn @DavidPocock @annhyland101 Keating supported privatising electricity

@DavidPocock @annhyland101 I agree @DavidPocock Australia needs real taxation reform. This has not happened since the 1980’s early 90’s. Hawke and Keating. They made decisions for that era, Howard jumped in and sold off everything we as tax payers owned. Sold off our electricity and gas, our infrastructure

@MichaelPascoe01 @PhilipThalis @Martin_Flanagan Tom Uren was a saintly spirit who joined the Labor Party. As a Minister in the Whitlam government he stood out as avoiding controversy despite his left wing status. He was conscientious, loyal, capable, industrious and sensitive. He reeked integrity. A superb role model.

And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

A group of Australian citizens were kidnapped on international waters and beaten senseless on camera by their captors - Israel The most prominent Israel advocate in Australia - Jillian Segal - has so far said nothing about the welfare of her fellow Australian citizens nor condemned this atrocious abuse of human rights and brutality by her home state of Israel Jillian Segal is an employee of the Australian people charged with promoting "social cohesion" and her silence on this blatant Israeli abuse of her fellow Australians is a disgrace to these abused citizens and to the Australian taxpayers who fund her

Israel just committed another horrific massacre in South Lebanon. Dropping bombs on residential homes in Sir El Gharbiyeh. Families buried under rubble. Civilians slaughtered in their own homes. This is mass murder.

BREAKING: Israel is massively bombing the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon right now, in the middle of the night, with zero warning given to civilians. Families are asleep in their homes. No military targets. No justification. Just Israeli bombs falling on civilian areas in the dark.

@Martina @PhilipThalis Zion National Park! Says it all regardless of the validity of the post.

Honestly- where the fuck are the people that can stop this atrocity??

@Harvard1988 @JohnCleese Why bother with impeachment? Is the President totally immune from prosecution? Is the American legal framework so broken it allows these corrupt practises? How can anyone have faith in the rule of law? If he’s broken the law he should be arrested and charged. End of story.

Israel killed 3 Indonesian UN peacekeepers in South Lebanon. They were wearing blue helmets and UN uniforms. They were peacekeepers. Israel bombed them anyway. Not a peep in Western media. Not a word from the international community.

We can stop the Royal Commission. We found the cause of anti-Semitism.
