❗️Bingo: Reuters reports that the Volgograd oil refinery halted crude processing. Two primary processing units with a combined capacity of 33,900 tonnes per day were shut down, equal to about 72% of the plant's crude capacity. Secondary processing units were also stopped. #Ukraine

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂‍↕️

Will we get the plans when it's too late to make any necessary and timely improvements? The clock is ticking, and H5N1 is spreading, rapidly.

Professor Euan Ritchie FAMS@euanritchie.bsky.social · 2d ago

Why have federal, state & territory governments not released their H5N1 response plans for native wildlife to the public & independent experts? They've had more than enough time to prepare. We have a right to know what's planned & what's not planned. Have a listen 👉 www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

Watching #4corners, I recall working — many decades ago — in Immigration Investigations. Any — and I mean *any* — attempt to investigate farmers for any legal violations, of any kind, for any reason, no matter how easily provable in court, was immediately shut down from the political level.

#4Corners says it went to Ghana to “follow the supply chain” but it used video from activists it could not verify. No mention of govt corruption or that cocoa prices have halved in 2 years and production fell 50%. This is an important story, and families are being exploited, but it can’t have gaps.

Parents all over Australia will be looking at the new #Diamond s #netball dresses thinking they’re gonna have to buy new outfits next season. They’re somewhere between a shirt and a dress and need to be pulled down every time the players touch the ball!

#ABC news 24 always asks banking economists (like Jo Masters (r)) about weekly ABS economic reports and they always say inflation (3.6%) is too high, suggesting rates must rise. Why not interview a single mum agency, a welfare group, anyone who says there must be a better way? #Auspol

I would never eat dinner with Donald Trump. I would never clap or laugh at his jokes. I would never shake his hand. When he attacks me, I wear his scorn as a badge of honor. I founded Democracy Docket to never back down or obey. Subscribe now. demdock.com/4w6emld
