🚨#BREAKING: Greens leader David Shoebridge unfollows suspect in Helen Haines attack Read that again. The Greens leader was FOLLOWING the alleged TERRORIST at the time of the horrific attack. Australia needs a Royal Commission into far-left extremism.

Headed to Australia to express my solidarity with its freedom-loving citizens fighting the government’s sinister plan for mass censorship and “sock puppet” info-war against the people. The defenders of freedom are once again the underdogs, but our cause is righteous. LFG! 🇦🇺
Anonymous online accounts threaten democracy and must be banned, say politicians. But now, the Australian government wants to use anonymous "sock puppet" bot accounts as part of its broader push for sweeping online censorship. Terrifying, unprecedented, and Orwellian.

“In the last 20 years, the world spent $10 trillion on wind, solar, and batteries. It hasn’t made it to 3% of global energy, and it’s just driven up prices.” - U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright Everyone see what a scam this has always been?

The Governments of Australia on all three levels, council, state, and federal are full of people who have never worked in the private sector and their decisions constantly show that. We need a complete overhaul of governance. NOW.
Just listen to this. There are tens of thousands of stories of trades being pushed out of business by red tape, green tape, safety tape and resulting insurances. This tiler is far from alone. The fact that the man won't show his face on camera tells you how nasty things have actually become. People are afraid of the government and the unions. I see this every day, and it is getting worse. We need to expose it. Spread the word.

Dit is Solarfeld Erlasee in #Beieren. In 2006 was het nog het grootste zonnepark ter wereld. Het park wordt nu afgebroken omdat de 20-jarige EEG-#subsidieperiode (Einspeisevergütung) is afgelopen. De exploitanten vinden verder exploiteren economisch niet meer rendabel. Laat me raden, tijd voor modernere panelen met nieuwe subsidie??🧐

BREAKING: The Sydney Swans have essentially admitted they completely botched the 5 week player suspensions. Despite standing down Isaac Heeney, Chad Warner, Nick Blakey, Riley Bice, and James Jordon for the rest of the AFL season over a late night incident in Melbourne, the club has already welcomed all five players back to Moore Park HQ today. CEO Matthew Pavlich and Coach Dean Cox confirmed the group returned for routine end of season exit reviews, with Pavlich stating he wants them to “be themselves” and “do what they normally do” By bringing them back into the fold just days after being knocked out of the preliminary final, and right after banning them from attending the Brownlow Medal count where Heeney polled a massive 26 votes, the club’s strict “season ending”stance looks incredibly hollow. With Victoria Police laying zero charges and the AFL completely stepping back, the Swans' aggressive self imposed penalties look more like a rushed PR panic than a justified disciplinary move.

Channel Nine has broadcast an interview with a Ku Klux Klan leader, seeking to link their views to One Nation. This is disgusting and a new low for the Australian media. The Ku Klux Klan is a white supremacist organisation with a long history of racial hatred, terror and violence. Yet Channel Nine sent an Australian journalist to the United States to seek them out, interview them and broadcast their views to Australians. This is extraordinary. Any suggestion that One Nation or its supporters endorse the KKK or share its ideology is absurd and offensive. There is something seriously wrong with a media organisation that believes Australians need to hear what the Ku Klux Klan thinks about Australian politics and chooses to promote those views. Channel Nine should be ashamed of itself.

BHP: “electric trucks were not suitable for mass deployment because they would need to stop to charge for 30 minute up to 8 times a day.” Fortescue: “Charging time for battery-electric trucks is only one part of the operating model – it should not be considered in isolation” Which side is grounded in reality here? The Fortescue guys appeal to some ‘whole of system’ operational benefit. But I can’t help but think that that kind of onerous charging requirement is an easy way to wreck the whole system. Not just raw the down-time, but the fast-repeating must-make scheduling, in time and space, you need the facilities at all these locations, intense electrical infrastructure to deliver that… what happens when something changes/breaks? Those hundreds of trucks and their every-few hours space-dependent charging schedule with many MW of electrical infrastructure has to change too. Fuel density delivers flexibility. That’s what Fortescue is fighting against. I’m sure they’d just call me a naysayer. Good luck to them, if they can make it work, good on ‘em.

Will we ship them our uranium like we are to India? When will Australians wake up to the con artists running our country into the ground?
Australia should be the wealthiest country in the world, but we are governed by totally incompetent and clueless fools. China has approved another 10 nuclear power stations at a total cost of US$27 billion (~A$38 billion). They will generate around 12,000 MW of electricity 24/7 for the Chinese economy. In contrast, Australia is spending $42 billion on Snowy 2.0. which generates zero electricity. In fact, it destroys energy, because the electricity used to pump the water uphill is around 40% more than the electricity it produces when the water is released to spin the turbines. Even then, on an intermittent basis, Snowy 2.0 can only deliver a maximum of 2,000 MW. If we keep this up, China is going to own us. The decisions being made today by totally incompetent fools like Bowen and Albanese — with their Net Zero obsession — will impoverish future generations of Australians.

Anthony Albanese calls someone who works hard their entire life to pay off their home and then pass it down to their children as “intergenerational inequality” And then taxes that house again when you try to pass it on. But if you live in housing commission house occupied for four generations, like his own family, that isn’t inequality. That’s just being a “proud houso”

Since Trump returned to power, Australia's Prime Minister, @AlboMP, has boasted about their relationship. But now, with his new demand for sweeping online censorship, Albanese is willing to sacrifice his nation's coveted minerals deal so he can silence critics of mass migration.
