We scored a win on the ATEC legislation last night, but the fight isn’t over. The Jobs‑Ready Graduates scheme has to go! 🙅♀️

The global energy crisis will enable oil and gas companies to make huge profits, which we won’t benefit from because our main fossil fuel tax, the PRRT, is so poorly designed.

The Japan PM is in town to twist the government's arm just as the campaign to fairly tax our gas exports gains real momentum. Coincidence? I don't think so. There’s plenty of hot air in the debate about gas exports, particularly where Japan is concerned. Let’s set the record straight.
In 2029–30, students and graduates will pay more in HECS indexation than multinational gas corporations pay in tax on our oil and gas. Let that sink in. Australians deserve a fair share of our natural resources, and a government with the courage to stand up for them.
The Liberals seem stuck in a 1970s nostalgia loop. Making homes more affordable for young Australians is *not* an assault on aspiration.
Heat kills, and it’s time the Albanese government did something about it. After record heat scorched Vic today, I’m kicking off a campaign to name heatwaves & save lives. While we’re at it, perhaps we should name deadly heat after those making the biggest contribution. Heatwave Woodside, anyone?
Already more than 5,000 Australians have joined our campaign to release more funding for medical research in the 2026 Federal Budget. If you can spare 30 seconds of your time to join our campaign, you’ll help fund life-saving cures in Australia. www.moniqueryan.com.au/medical_rese...
When you pay off a credit card or mortgage, the bank can’t charge you interest on repayments you’ve already made. That would be illegal. But when the government does it, it’s fine and normal. Sign my petition today to fix HECS. We've done it before, let's do it again.
Why can't we have nice things? There are plenty of reasons, but one of the biggest is that the govt refuses to tax gas exports properly. My thoughts on reports the Albanese Govt has backed gas company profits over the health of the budget and the will of most Australians.
The new Australian Tertiary Education Commission will oversee our university system. Unfortunately, one thing it won’t do is look at student contributions, the biggest driver of the HECS crisis.
Australia’s medical and scientific research sectors save lives and are vital to our economy. The government has to step up and lean in to their potential. It’s small-minded and short-sighted to force them to wither on the vine, when we have money put aside for this purpose in the Future Fund.
Pat Ryan goes off on House Republicans pulling the War Powers vote, calling them “Chickenhawk motherfuckers.”
Pam Bondi & Donald Trump are being dishonest with the American people. Bondi's OWN DEPARTMENT published a report on violent right-wing extremism and wiped it when Donald Trump said that political violence is only a problem on the left. Restore the data and keep Americans safe.

Jesse Watters promoted President Donald J. Trump's false claim that '86' was a mob term for murder. Watters used the term in July 2025 to describe people getting canceled by the mainstream media. I provide receipts along with the dictionary definition of the term - 86

Donald Trump’s Executive Order attempting to take over our elections is unconstitutional and unserious.
As we approach the 25th anniversary of the worst attack on American soil, we must enshrine the memory of the nearly 3,000 loved ones we lost, the first responders, and those still dealing with 9/11-related illnesses.

Toretsk. Another town in Ukraine that Russia has turned to ash and ruins. Russians who claimed to have come to "liberate" Donbas are only liberating it from life itself.
