This is what billionaire ownership of the media means: Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta shut down the No Kings account for hours during the height of their protests. Meta suppressed accounts supporting Brazil President Lula da Silva in the recent election. Larry Ellison’s TikTok blocked advertising for a documentary criticizing Elon Musk. Fight back. Defeat oligarchy. Preserve democracy.

Let this sink in… The skull had been taken to a local pub, where people used it as a communal ashtray, because they believed the remains belonged to an Aboriginal child. Their disgust and remorse only surfaced when they discovered that the skull belonged to a murdered white girl.

America has bases in 80 countries. Think about what it means to need 800 bases across 80 countries to feel secure. This is not the behavior of an invincible power. This is the behavior of a power so terrified of a world that organizes itself without its permission that it has planted itself, at enormous expense, on every continent, in every strategic geography, in every chokepoint and sea lane and border region where independence might otherwise take root. Invincibility does not require this. Invincibility does not need to be everywhere. Invincibility does not spend trillions maintaining a presence in 80 countries to prevent the world from discovering what it would look like without that presence. The 800 bases are not evidence of strength. They are evidence of what strength is terrified of. A world that has noticed it can function without asking permission.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are helping Vladimir Putin kill Ukrainians. Remember that when you vote in November.

Yep.
The West is waking up to a simple fact: MAGA chose Russia. For eighty years, Americans knew Moscow was the adversary. Truman knew it. Kennedy knew it. Reagan called the Soviet Union an evil empire. American soldiers prepared to stop Russian armour in Europe, taxpayers financed NATO, and intelligence officers spent careers penetrating the Kremlin. Russia never changed. It invaded Georgia, seized Crimea, poisoned opponents, interfered in Western elections, attacked Western institutions, and launched the largest war in Europe since 1945. What changed was part of America. Trump spent years shouting “Russia, Russia, Russia” and “hoax”. It was never a hoax. Russian interference was real. The campaign to weaken NATO, divide America, discredit institutions and separate the US from Europe was real. The Kremlin failed to break the West from outside. MAGA started helping from within. So congratulations, Russia. You lost the Cold War, then found Americans willing to attack the alliance that defeated you and call it patriotism. Quite a victory.

Hey @grok, did Russia recently help Iran target our military bases and ships in the middle east? Did those attacks kill U.S. troops? Be concise.

Hey MAGAts, if Trump has control of the Strait of Hormuz like he claims, then why the fuck would he need to buy diesel from Vladimir Putin? Explain it like I'm Kevin Sorbo level dumb

This isn’t a massive amount of oil. It’s 15 hours worth of monthly diesel supply. But this accomplishes three very ugly things: 1) Trump can threaten Ukraine if they bomb any more of Putin’s oil refineries. 2) This can be used as a pretext for why Trump insiders can do dirty business deals with Russia. 3) This can open the door for more sanctions relief for Putin.
‼️TRUMP: Oil deal with Russia. That is a big deal. That is massive amounts of oil coming into our country, and I wanna thank President Putin. We have massive amounts of oil being, coming into our country. So, thank you. ————————————————— TRUMP: And by the way, I think you heard about the oil deal with Russia. That is a big deal. That is massive amounts of oil coming into our country, and I wanna thank President Putin, to be honest with you. We have massive amounts of oil being, coming into our country, and it's diesel, which is what we want. So, thank you. 1-JOURNALIST: President Zelensky said you're weak because of it. He just criticized you. TUMP: Who said that? 1-JOURNALIST: Zelensky, Ukrainian president, just said you're weak because of the deal with Russia. TRUMP: Okay. 2- JOURNALIST: President, Zelensky said the diesel deal is a weak move by a strong partner that will only prolong the war. TRUMP: By a strong what? 2-JOURNALIST: By a strong partner that will only prolong war. TRUMP: Well, we are a strong partner. 2-JOURNALIST: Will this embolden Putin? TRUMP: Well, no, we need oil for the world, and this is diesel, which is what we need, so we're very happy to get it. We're very happy to get it. Look, we need it. Oil prices are already dropping like a rock, so we're very happy to get it.

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

The United States plunges deeper into the abyss: live-streaming a firing squad, an oil deal with Putin, sanctions on the ICC…and now Trump whining - yet again - that he didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. It is a sick, sick society, an object of international derision and contempt laughed at by its enemies, distrusted by its former friends.

This shows just how extreme the US is. Livestreaming an execution by firing squad is the behaviour of a bloodthirsty dictator. Yet the Albanese Government is tying us closer and closer to the Trump regime.

Schmitt: Did you attend a concert wearing an anti-Trump shirt? Smith: I wore a “No Kings” shirt. It used to be a bipartisan American sentiment.

Never thought I'd ever see a president start a war and say its cool if the enemy bombs a couple u.s. cities and kill millions of Americans. Now thats some america 1st, amirite?
Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

Yes @BernardKeane scrap $368B AUKUS and impose a 25% super profits tax on export gas. While Angus Taylor, Matt Canavan, Pauline and the Beetrooter refuse to say what public services they’d cut as a counter-inflation measure, we could fix the federal budget with these two measures alone.

I'm not a ON or Coalition supporter I do however hope Albanese and his warmongering side kick experience a devastating rejection by the constituents. The rusties know it's coming.
Given the amount of abuse being hurled from nutters at @DavidShoebridge, I think the Greens have finally got them worried. Look forward to watching the ALP haemorrhage votes to the @Greens as the LNP seem to be doing with PHON. Bring on the election! 🍀💚✅

End AUKUS. The US military is destabilizing the world and spreading violence, all headed by a bunch of Trump's true weirdos fighting culture wars.
