"The security boys just go wild for it." @emmashortis.bsky.social on the 'Thucydides trap' & false narratives about war being inevitable. "What some blokes thought about war several millennia ago is not really relevant to our significantly changed circumstances." 🎧 theaus.in/4di7GcT

A 25% tax on gas exports wouldn't just raise $17 billion a year to fund essential services. It would mean more Australian gas sold to Australians! @richarddenniss.bsky.social #auspol

"Together, negative gearing and the 50% capital gains tax discount have really made housing unaffordable." "Depending on what those changes look like in the budget, this will hopefully stop making the problem worse." @ebonybennett.bsky.social #auspol

"If you look around the world, there are some countries that don't have housing affordability issues, and they all have one thing in common. And that's a large role for the government in the housing sector." @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social #auspol

The budget brought big changes to how wealth is taxed in Australia! Trusts will now pay a minimum 30% tax rate, which will raise around $4.4 billion a year, and reduce inequality. @grogsgamut.bsky.social @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social #auspol #Budget2026

Angus Taylor''s plan to bar migrants from accessing welfare until they become citizens ignores the fact that the vast majority of those people already face up to decades-long waits to access welfare. "It's just another bomb in the culture war." @amyremeikis.bsky.social #auspol

The US & Australian governments insist that the AUKUS submarine deal is "full steam ahead". But there appears to be a big gap between that political rhetoric & the reality, says Guardian journalist Ben Doherty. "The US is getting slower at building submarines, not faster." 🎧 theaus.in/43vlCKI

Australians lose $32 billion to gambling every year. "We are the biggest losers in the world per capita when it comes to gambling," says Martin Thomas, CEO of the Alliance for Gambling Reform. "It's reshaping a whole generation." 🎧 bit.ly/4nXsbPW @ebonybennett.bsky.social #auspol

$1 billion taxpayer dollars for Trump's ballroom. The Epstein files. Attacks on voting rights and civil liberties. Judiciary Republicans have ignored it all, and instead held a hearing to peddle Islamophobic conspiracy theories. Shame.

Back in 2025, after Virginia Giuffre’s reported suicide, other Epstein survivors publicly stated they were not suicidal and warned they were living in fear. Juliette Bryant claimed multiple victims had died under suspicious circumstances — while mainstream media largely ignored the warnings.

Around 100,000 gay and bisexual men were arrested in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945. Thousands were sent to concentration camps. Many never came home. Trans people and lesbian and bisexual women were also persecuted, but their experience has been documented to a lesser extent.
