Corruption festers in secret: The Australian public deserves a meritorious selection for the next @NACCgovau commissioner. To restore trust in this new institution, and government itself, we need someone who will fearlessly expose corruption regardless of vested corporate/political interests.

A secret star chamber full of #LaborLNPCoalition mates will be choosing the next #NACC commissioner. The AG department and Federal AG Rowland could get spivs like Eddie Obeid, Christian Porter, Scott Morrison and Mark Dreyfus to pick the next #NACC supremo. #LaborCrimeFamily

The Labor Government doing what it does best - insisting the emperor is fully clothed! Labor just blocked a Greens motion in the Reps for real committee oversight of NACC Commissioner candidates, instead backing the same process that gave us Brereton. They have learned nothing.

Investors with seven or more properties are claiming billions in tax handouts while the average Australian struggles with secure housing, rents and mortgages.

Should Labor terminate its $1.3m contract to KPMG to train senior public sector leaders in ethics?

Jillian Segal: "The Australian Jewish community stands with Israel. We are Zionist & we believe in the right of the Jewish people to determine our future,in our state in our historic homeland" Why is the Australian taxpayer funding a divisive zionist who yearns to be elsewhere?

Dear AUS PM @AlboMP, Given Israel: • murdered Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom • kidnapped, detained, and physically & sexually abused 11 Australian citizens from the recent Global Sumud Flotilla, WHEN will you sanction Israel, and expel the Israeli Ambassador? #auspol

Richard Marles went to Singapore to meet the US and UK about AUKUS and came back with a slap in the face - then pretends it’s good - he was told that if we ever get any Virginia class submarines they will ALL be second hand, none will be new. If that’s the good news … end AUKUS!

Systemic failures that need structural solutions. Big 4 business model where earnings trump ethics every time. How many times do we need its illustration? Enough with the scandal and outrage: time for action. Step up Labor.

I asked the Minister about the war on Iran in question time, and she proceeded to gaslight and mislead the Senate and the Australian people by *srsly* trying to blame Iran... Here's some of what went down.

.@RepRoKhanna and I just spent two hours at DOJ viewing the “mostly-unredacted” Epstein files. Four of the 18 redacted names on this document are men born before 1970. DOJ needs to explain why they are redacted unless they were just randoms in a line-up. justice.gov/epstein/files/Da…

House prices in Australia went from 4.5× average income to 12× in 50 years. Politicians say they want "sustainable growth." Translation: keep prices high because they already own property. The driver? Bank-created mortgage credit. Not shortages. I mapped 45 years of data. The correlation between mortgage acceleration and price growth is undeniable. Household debt went from 34% of GDP to 120%. That's what inflated housing. Banks don't lend existing money. They create new money when they issue mortgages. Textbooks teach the opposite, and that's why policy keeps failing. Three real solutions: PILL (cap lending to rental income), an Affordable Housing Authority that lends without interest, and a Modern Debt Jubilee.

"6°C of warming will only minimally impact your stock portfolio," is the psychotic, murderous lie economists have told themselves. As if planetary physics pays heed to the creative, desperate math of greedy imbeciles.

Economic models buckle under strain of climate reality

Ahead of international climate talks in Dubai this month, economists are updating estimates of the impact of global warming on the world economy, sometimes calculating down to a decimal place the hit...

How is it that the very wealthy consistently end up paying less tax than young workers? This excellent video from @jack_toohey explains how our tax system is rife with loopholes that asset-rich wealthy individuals are able to exploit. xitter.cf/jack_toohey/status/170…
