When I see our defence minister and deputy PM posing with that war mongering shit Hegseth, both will full make up and Botox, both spouting lies, when I see this I wonder how anyone can consider voting for a broken ALP ever again. #AusPol

“The juxtaposition of news footage of Albanese doing a beachside press conference in Palau, which is barely above sea level, in the same bulletins showing NT Chief Minister Lia Finocchiaro switching on the Beetaloo carbon bomb was dissonant, to put it mildly.” trib.al/ncuwJSD

Trouble in Pacific paradise

The juxtaposition of news footage of Albanese doing a beachside press conference in Palau, which is barely above sea level, in the same bulletins showing Finocchiaro switching on the Beetaloo carbon bomb, was dissonant, to put it mildly.

Laura Tingle: “The Perth submarine presence is in addition to the annual rotation of US Marines through Darwin, and the significant US presence at the Tindall air base in the Northern Territory, which is speculated to host nuclear-armed B52 bombers.” #auspol

Laura Tingle: “But in Washington, Marles put different spin on what "making real progress in relation to AUKUS" now means. That is, AUKUS is — not altogether surprisingly — morphing into an arrangement where US has a base in Australia, as opposed to Australia having its own capabilities.” #auspol

Dr Michael Keating and Jon Stanford exploding the myth that the US will be rotating through HMAS Stirling. It will be a US base with a US Commodore. Sick of Marles/ALP trying to hide the facts from the public. Stanford says it’s a US base and we have no say in what they do.🤬
