A 61yr old woman who fled GAZA has been raided and detained, no not in the US, here in Australia! The Albanese Government is carrying out the work of DT's ICE right here in AU!

"security checks were made on her by both Australian and Israeli authorities before she was granted a visa and cleared to leave Gaza" and asking the ENEMY (Israel) for clearance on a person was such a *brilliant idea* wasn't it.. Idiots!

Good ol' Penny has sured-up DT's support for the AUKUS agreement that no Australian wants or needs.. this, hot on the heels of her unwavering support for DT's unprovoked illegal attacks on Iran.. and is now trying to sell Australia's rare earth minerals to the U.S. too.. Well done Penny, missed a spot of boot-polish on your lip there love...

The Guardian · Aukus deal’s importance ‘well understood’ by Trump administration, Penny Wong says – but no iron-clad guarantee givenBy Sarah Basford Canales

If the Ceasefire holds we've learnt 4x things (two of which were already well-known).

- Iran is now quite-rightly on the warpath-in-planning after being unprovokedly attacked.

- Penny Wong & Anthony Albanese will choose supporting DT over the Australian People.

- DT is getting more dangerous by the day & needs to be Removed.

- Netanyahu is getting more dangerous by the day & needs to be Removed.

Albanese has once again traded his back bone for good ol' fashion Yellow Jello.. DT want's his boots licked clean by 5pm sharp by the way, there's a good boy...

If he keeps up with this constant DT appeasement he could find a Vote of No Confidence calling an early election..

Just got the Labor leaflet. They have a three pronged attack to gain my vote:

1 help Tasmanians with cost of living
2 bring opportunities to Bass electorate
3 restore Medicare and the health service.

Nothing bad in any of that, but no green policies. I guess at least Labor aren't lying about caring for the environment this election.
