The Albanese Labor Government has just given the Federal police $200 million, as part of the new 'AUKUS Command' force. Today we learnt this is solely to protect US and UK submarines. Australians paying for the protection of the US military, that's AUKUS.

Four years into this Labor government and we can see what they are all about. Super profits for gas corporations, cuts to people on NDIS, billions more for war and AUKUS and changes to negative gearing and property taxes that only make inequality worse.

BREAKING Its not just the US and UAE, Australia also providing 'defensive' military support to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Qatar. The Albanese Labor Government cannot pretend we are not involved Trump and Netanyahu's war of choice when we up to our neck in it.

The NT government gets 80% of its budget from the Commonwealth. Some of that money goes on spit hoods for kids. On Friday, every child in detention was locked in their cell all day because there weren't enough staff. This is where your federal dollars go.

Defence knew in October 2025 that the LOTE project on the Collins Class submarines was in crisis. When I ask back then if the $11 billion project was on track, they said there was "no change to the program of record". The LOTE program has now been massively de-scoped with a scathing audit.

Trump has just told Albanese that he is not giving Australia any new submarines under AUKUS. I asked Defence how this can still be the 'optimal pathway'. The response is... interesting.

What happens when every Fed department is responsible for AI data centres but none of them actually is? At Estimates we found out: foreign multinationals make commercial decisions, states rip up their planning laws, and the water and energy consequences are someone else's problem

The Albanese Labor government is currently talking with the US about what data Trump gets access to on Australians traveling there. We need clarity that Australians' biometric data will be safe from Palantir, the US far-right tech giant powering ICE's deportation machine.

This whole LOTE project for the Collins Class was based on the idea we would get French submarines, something that disappeared in 2021 when Morrison chose AUKUS. That means Defence bought a whole bunch of stuff, based on a now scrapped idea. Here are the figures.

Israeli President Herzog got a personal tour of ASIO headquarters. Asked if they could name another foreign leader ever given that access, ASIO drew a blank.

Heartwarming and hilarious. In a world full of gray skies, one little girl is bringing the house down. Penelope isn't just walking home; she’s headlining her own sold-out world tour. From the driveway to the front door, she’s proving that rain or shine, the stage is wherever you make it.

MDMA diplomacy almost sounds reasonable.

Hold up. Did Ol’ YamTits start a war with Iran to distract from the Epstein files and all of the associated fuckery — and then — trot out his latest wife to distract from the war with Iran and that associated fuckery?
