If Trump can scare the Gerald Ford Foundation from giving an award to Liz Cheney six months before the election, imagine the spinelessness we'd see after he won. Really terrible foretaste what would be in store.

Over 1000 people w disability live in ACT social housing. At least 48 of these people – but potentially 100s – are eligible for specialist funding of up to $90k/year.

ACT Govt has failed to draw on ANY of that funding for at least 7 years🤦‍♂️

Since it is illegal for non-citizens to vote, folks need to see this for what it is: An effort to make it more difficult for citizens to vote. There are plenty of Americans who do not have proof of citizenship and who will be deterred from voting by such legislation.

¡How will people prove citizenship?

Don't worry, Trump's MAGA GQP Republicans will make it easy...

Productivity gurus quoted by ⁦Financial Review⁩ all put the boot into Anthony Albanese⁩’s Future Made in Australia Act. Stutch’s editorial says it’s a “dead end”. So manufacturing in Australia with requisite education/skills in a population growing to 40m by 2055 is a “dead end”?

Quentin Dempster Financial Review Anthony Albanese Funny how manufacturing support prompts outrage but the outraged don’t bat an eyelid about annual subsidies of $11 billion to fossil fuel companies.

This time it's Steve Price's turn to do the 'cis-het man explains why anti-gay slurs don't deserve punishment' routine...

12 of the 13 councils have taken the deal on the TOD or bettered the govt’s number of units. Canterbury-Bankstown has asked for three more stations to become TODs.

The last one, Ku-ring-gai, didn’t want to negotiate, so they’re being upzoned to six storeys this month.

Tw terf nonsense

Isn’t this the saddest idea of what it is to be a women you ever heard? That it’s primarily not about nurture or sisterhood or emotional intelligence or whatever else but fear of men as if this is an inherent truth and not the impacts of patriarchy

I think some gen z have a hard time grasping that art often evokes uncomfortable emotions on purpose. It’s cringey to you because they wrote it cringey!! Imagine how much worse it would be if Carrie were written as an infallible aspirational bore? She’s terrible and we need that!

We have to decide if we want an open, fair, equitable and fun society, or allow it be gamed by cashed-up locals who want to build exclusive enclaves.

The majority of House Republicans, including Mike Johnson, have signed onto a bill that would ban all abortions nationwide and rip away access to IVF.

This aligns with the Project 2025 plan to restrict reproductive rights in all 50 states under a second Trump term

President Biden and I are proud to announce an additional $7.4 billion in student loan forgiveness for 277,000 more Americans.

We have now forgiven $153 billion for 4.3 million borrowers — and we won’t stop there. To learn more visit StudentAid.gov.

The same people who said women were hysterical for warning that Roe v. Wade could be overturned are the same people now saying we're being alarmist about a Trump-enacted national abortion ban.

If all the Top Secret documents Trump allegedly stored in his Mar-a-Lago bathroom don’t fit, you must acquit.

Using Trump’s name to sell an off-brand ShamWow is the purest distillation of contemporary conservatism. No notes.
