Matthew 7:5 (NIV): "You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye." - Jesus Christ, the grand master of #whataboutery. Only on Twitter is exposing hypocrisy not a virtue - don't accept it.

Irony. USA's best world cup striker, Folarin Balogun, is by definition an anchor baby. But his family hasn't used him as an anchor, the US itself has, so they could snare someone born in the US by accident, who left at one month old, to boost their chances. Don't tell Trump.

Some Aussies would do well to watch this.

The worst part is him saying the strike on the elementary school in Minab (that killed 168 schoolchildren and teachers) "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines."

““It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today.” V “The Currency Act was British legislation passed in 1764 that prohibited all American colonies from issuing paper money as legal tender. Colonists were forced to pay off British debts in specie. I.e. gold and silver which was scarce in the colonies. The restriction on the money supply hindered colonial trade and development and caused widespread outrage, contributing to the growing resentment toward British Parliament that led to the American Revolution.” V “The Holey Dollar and the Dump are Australia's first officially minted coins, created in 1813. To fix a severe coin shortage and stop currency from leaving the colony, Governor Macquarie punched a hole in the dollar.” V “Petrodollars are U.S. dollars earned by oil-exporting countries from the sale of crude oil to the global market. Because crude oil is universally traded in dollars, importing nations must exchange their local currencies for U.S. dollars to purchase oil, effectively driving consistent global demand for the U.S. currency.” ••••••• Classic clip from the movie “Network” highlighting the international currency system. Currency control is the means by which governments control your wealth. It is poorly misunderstood and deliberately hidden from the public via clandestine bodies such as the International Bank of Settlements. It is however the reason countries go to war, especially in the Middle East where control of the world’s oil and gas reserves is vital to protecting the Petro dollar. Gold has recently replaced the U.S. dollar as the biggest reserve currency due to wasteful government spending and deceptive financial engineering accross Western countries. Peoplefirstparty.au intends to stop the debasement of our currency by backing it with real infrastructure and real skills that generate real wealth, not paper castles.

I'm sure this is how Australian governments also intend to proceed with the AI data centre bubble.

I hate to break it to people, but @elonmusk is NOT the world's first trillionaire. The first trillionaire was likely a German baker selling bread on 5 November 2023 in Weimar Germany. There were quite a few trillionaires made on that day.

NATO Commander Europe Grynkewich debunks the propaganda of European Russophobes. 'Russia does not seek conflict with NATO and does not intend to attack. I have been following the intelligence very closely.'

It's worth watching former Senator Gerard Rennick's @RennickGBR tax explanation in this debate. As he says, the car driven by the major parties has broken down, so Aussies are jumping off and want to torch it. But we need to pop the hood and fix it. youtu.be/21EZ1_Hyt9M?si=gHoq…

Looks like it would be worth reading.

If The Big Short was made in 2026

Anthony Albanese distinguished himself as the first national leader to endorse this criminal embarrassment. He's trying to squirm out of it, but Angus Taylor and Pauline Hanson still support it. This is an example of Australia not having foreign policy independence.

This ranks up there with Australian cabinet minister Bill Shorten agreeing with what Prime Minister Julia Gillard said even though he didn't know what she said because he hadn't heard it.

Well, here's some math. Starlink is a profitable business with about $11 billion of sales and $3 billion of free cash flow. It might be worth $75 billion at a frisky multiple of 25X free cash flow. The balance----the space launch business and the AI/data centers in space fantasy----has $7 billion of sales and NEGATIVE -$17 billion of free cash flow. So why is it worth anything, unless you are pricing a dream peddled by sell-side hucksters?! In short, after trading up to $2 trillion based on $75 billion of tangible Starlink value, where's the remaining $1.925 trillion of it? This isn't just the classical mania of the crowds. This is sui generis--- mass insanity in a casino that has been giving a lobotomy by three decades of money-printing madness at the Fed and its fellow-traveling central banks around the planet.

12 June 2026—MEDIA RELEASE—KPMG scandal: How long will Big Four corruption be tolerated? #auspol #KPMG hubs.li/Q04l9tJn0

This is John Shipton, sitting with longtime Peace activist @GraemeDunstan at a special exhibition in Sydney, on June 5th 2026, dedicated to the children of Minab, and other children whose lives have been brutally stolen by war and genocide. John is best known as the father of Julian Assange, who fought relentlessly for his son's freedom. Through the Assange Campaign, we got to know John Shipton. A quite Australian architect and builder, a father, a grandfather, an uncle and a brother. An anti-war activist who has become one of Australia's greatest political analysts. As @RobbieBarwick describes John, a profound philosophical, political figure. Many of you would be on John's FB friend list or were following his page. Unfortunately, FB has decided to disable John's FB page without review and without chance to reinstate. Please bear with us as we create a new page for John as a public figure. FB may censor truth tellers but they will never shut us up. We only grow louder. We do this for the children of the world. Life's greatest gift, the child. #Minab168 #StopTheWarOnChildren

Compare Jetstar prices from Melbourne, to prices from Townsville to Mt Isa. This is what airline deregulation has done to regional Australia. City flyers enjoy the prices, but the long-term effect is the regions whither and everyone crams into the big cities.

Someone tell this guy what Jesus said about the widow's mite. There are immigrant nurses who work double shifts holding our hospitals together who give far more of themselves for Australia than Gina's gifts mean to her.

Hilarious by @bennpackham. In trying to put down the AUKUS Public Inquiry as a "lefty" echo chamber - Gareth Evans, really? - he admits AUKUS does need real scrutiny. But it hasn't had scrutiny because cowardly Albo is scared of his media company! theaustralian.com.au/nation/…

No, we shouldn't be worried. We should be ecstatic that we won't have to spend more money on this scam.

I expect Australian foreign minister @SenatorWong to stridently protest this breach of the Uyghur's human rights by ... Thailand.
