CENK: "Of course it's a genocide- every genocide scholar that's not zionist calls it one. Who are you kidding? Gaza's GONE... 🇮🇱 stole 70% of it, they'll never give it back. They're in Southern Lebanon, tearing the West Bank to shreds..." @cenkuygur rips 🇮🇱 influence over 🇺🇸 + Trump

Please someone; tell it to Australia's tin-eared and pathologically timid Prime Minister @albomp.bsky.social. #auspol

Trump is telling us as loudly and clearly as he can: he’s not our friend and he won’t protect us. Time we got the message - and acted accordingly. Latest column www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Australia is losing $45 billion a year in potential revenue by not taxing our resource exports. That's extra billions for schools, hospitals, housing, cost of living relief, and the transition to clean, secure energy. It's a no-brainer. Gas tax. Now. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Hey @albomp.bsky.social - this is getting confusing. Time to tell the Australian people whose side we are supposed to be on: Ukraine's? Or Trump & Putin's? And then explain how having dozens of US bases on Australian soil - or Australian military bases controlled by the US - makes us more secure?
Trump rages at 'stupid people' trying to stop his turn toward Russia amid furious backlash #RawStory
fortune.com/2026/10/17/u... US budget deficit hits US$2Trillion, & $40T debt. Anyone who thinks the billions of AUS$ Albo & Marles are sending the Yanks is doing anything other than subsidising their debt, is dangerously naive. #auspol #AUKUS

The NeverSubs -the absolute worst most blatant Ponzi scheme in history, with the greasy pawprints of the shameless grifter Morrison all over it. Its real value to Marles? His ticket to a lucrative post-politics gig with an arms manufacturer.
Peter Briggs: A Ponzi scheme relies on early investors putting up hard cash to sustain structure built on non-existent or undeliverable assets. The scheme survives only as long as capital keeps flowing and no participant calls time on underlying insolvency. pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

Every single fucking day, Trump gives Albanese an excellent excuse to start to break the US hold on Australia's sovereignty. And every single day he fails the test. Utter insanity. @albomp.bsky.social #auspol

The fighting is pretty bad, but what is terrifying is that there are still so many Yanks rabidly supporting that fat orange fuck Trump will be gone one day, but these fucking horrible people are the putrid heart of America. Our only hope is complete disconnection from this toxic culture. #auspol
holy shit -- a protester at the Trump rally gets physically assaulted after they interrupt the rally by a man who punches her in the face. Trump smears the protester as a "fat guy"

One in six kids in poverty. Increasing housing stress. Fossil-fueled climate policy. Our closest alliance with the fascist US. Enabling the #GazaGenocide. Policy written by corporate donors. If this is what the “centre” delivers, “sensible” it is not. #auspol podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/7...

Every Single Day, Trump gives Albo a compelling reason to start breaking ties. This one is massive; but will be ignored again. The US funding Russia to support the war against Ukraine. #auspol
This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Albo's @australianlabor.bsky.social's the new #LNP, the LNP's the new One Nation, & One Nation's so far right they've fallen off their flat Earth. Greens & progressive independents are the only alternatives. Hope the Greens don't screw it up this time. johnmenadue.com/post/2026/10... #auspol

Hey @albomp.bsky.social - explain why it is so important to have an alliance with a fascist regime that murders people on the streets, separates families and sends kids to concentration camps, and deports people to countries where they have no connection ...on the basis of white supremacy? #auspol
Albo should get a selfie with it #auspol
A new statue titled “The Orange Plague”, also known as “King of Injustice”, by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, where it will remain through 8 October. Remember to stop by for a selfie if you have a chance. 😏📸

So pathetic, after a lifetime plotting and conniving in politics arriving at the pinnacle of his profession PM Albanese has only a meek acceptance of subservience to corporations, Israel and the USA and expects us to understand this as the inevitable status quo…I don't.

Bad enough that successive Australian governments have outsourced our defence and foreign policy to the US. But with Trump and Hegseth in charge, the 'alliance' [aka Australia giving up its sovereignty] is a huge threat to our national security. #EndAUKUS #auspol
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.

I increasingly feel that Shoebridge is a test for #Auspol that we haven't become too jaded that we can't recognise sincerity in politicians anymore. We see it in this guy and the Independents but not in partisan pollies. I hope we pass the test. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Defence Minister Richard Marles is oblivious to that which is obvious to everybody else: Britain cannot deliver our future #AUKUS subs on schedule (if at all). Luckily for Richard, it’s only our money and national security that’s at stake. #auspol
