Anyone That Isn’t MAGA Is Now A Terrorist by The Bitchuation Room (with Francesca Fiorentini)

'The Trump regime has officially labeled any dissent against them as supporting Antifa, which they now consider a domestic terrorist group. His FBI under Crazy Eyes Patel is now investigating foundations and nonprofit funding sources, hoping to cut the legs out from any movement that could mount any amount of resistance to his darkest plans. The “War on Terror” is now coming for all of us… Trump officially signed NSPM-7, which effectively labels anyone who is “anti-American” or “anti-captialist” or “anti-fascist” or “anti-Christianity” as a potential terrorist. Effectively anyone who is critical of MAGA’s agenda and their Christian Nationalist agenda. All of that is perfectly vague enough to allow them to label any non-MAGA person as a potential terrorist. Including of course the Democratic party. All that is bad enough, but NSPM-7 also gives the joint terrorism task force the power to, “disrupt any individuals or groups that foment political violence, including before they result in political, violent political acts before.” So basically pre-crime. This is 1984 and Minority Report having a very ugly baby. See you all down in Guantanamo Bay, I guess…for the crime of thought.'

Israel KIDNAPS Flotilla: Piracy Denounced As “TERRORISM"

This is piracy. Israel is kidnapping hundreds of people, including politicians and journalists, on a flotilla of boats which has sought to end the illegal starvation of the people of Gaza by Israel. Now there are 44 boats in the Global Sumud Flotilla with around 500 people from up to 50 countries. These boats are bringing humanitarian aid like food and medicine to a people who have been deliberately starved by Israel. But crucially, this flatillo was seeking to open a corridor and proving that Western nations could end the siege of Gaza at any moment if they so chose. The Israeli military have raided these boats. We can see footage of that from cameras on the boats streaming what has been happening....'

Trump's UN General Assembly Speech in under 10 minutes-Swollen Pickles

Donald Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly with a speech that drew widespread global attention. Here is his rambling, hour long address cut down to 10 minutes, covering the main points.

Hastie's Rising, UK's Digital ID and Trump comes after our drugs | Scam of the Week

Scams don’t take a holiday and this week has been overflowing with them. First, Anthony Albanese heads to the UN, and Murdoch’s media machine has a meltdown. If he skips Trump, it’s “disgraceful.” If he takes a photo with Trump, it’s “humiliating.” Damned if you do, damned if you don’t all while Rupert keeps pulling the strings. 

Meanwhile, Susan Ley is busy bootlicking foreign powers, writing apologies to US Congress for Australia recognising Palestine, while her own party tears itself apart at CPAC with Matt Canavan, Jacinta Price, and Tony Abbott sharing the stage with Liz Truss and Rowan Dean. Comedy or politics? Hard to tell. 

Over in the UK, Keir Starmer pushes a mandatory digital ID for anyone to work by 2029, sparking fierce backlash over civil liberties. And in the US, Trump’s chaos only deepens: honoring war criminals at Wounded Knee, joking with Erdogan about rigged elections, and claiming Tylenol in pregnancy causes autism a claim his allies’ supplement companies stand to profit from. But it doesn’t stop there. 

Trump has now slapped a 100% tariff on Australian pharmaceuticals, directly targeting our PBS system to please American drug giants. That means higher costs for taxpayers, less stability in our health system, and more profits for his billionaire backers. 

And through it all, the Liberal Party is auditioning Andrew Hastie as their next leader. With Jacinta Price, Angus Taylor, and Matt Canavan lining up behind him, he’s selling nostalgia about “bringing back Aussie manufacturing” while ignoring the fact his own party killed it in the first place. Add in his contradictions on net zero, and Hastie’s pitch looks less like policy, more like theatre. 

This week’s Scam of the Week award goes to Andrew Hastie the Liberals’ would-be Trump, wrapped in Murdoch’s headlines and serving up old ideas as if they’re new.

Israel’s TERRIFYING Threat Against Flotilla by Owen Jones

As the Flotilla heads towards Gaza from Crete, the Israel propaganda machine has cranked up the volume saying that they are Hamas supporters as they continue their Genocide of the Palestinians of Gaza.

Leaking War Crimes Got Him 5 Years in Jail | The West Report

 ‘This week we bring you exclusive interview with David McBride, the former Australian Army lawyer now serving a five-year sentence for leaking classified documents that exposed alleged war crimes in Afghanistan.

From inside prison, McBride speaks openly about why he risked everything, why he believes his case will shape Australian law, and what it means for whistleblowers, justice, and accountability in this country.

This is more than just a story it’s about the principle at the heart of democracy: that “just following orders” is never an excuse for covering up crimes.

You’ll hear directly from McBride himself, thanks to months of work from our team to get access to him in Canberra. This is the kind of journalism that would never happen without your support.’

"THE FALL OF AMERICA" - Ben Lee

I'm glued to my phone, watching the fall of America.

One last call for alcohol.

It's coming to an end.

And to all of my friends, well, I am not forgetting you.

When this whole thing is over, we will dance again.

Disneyland, Spike Lee, Kir Cabain and Lou Reed, Patty Smith, Muhammad Ali.

I still hear them speak to me.

Poets with a conscience.

Insecure and confident.

They had what I wanted.

What would happen if I got it?

Harry Frell, culture breakers, Bosi up the contemplators, freedom fighters, belly acres, all the movers and the shakers circling the wagon, screaming round Manhattan.

Parties in the canyon. It's so strange to watch it happen.

Now I'm glued to my phone, watching the fall of America.

One last call for alcohol.

It's coming to an end.

And to all of my friends, well, I am not forgetting you.

When this whole thing is over, we will dance again.

Amphetamines and Mary Jane, Iggy Pop and John Coltrane. Breaking hearts and bending brains.

Put it straight into my veins. R E M L S D N W A Easy.

Read it all in magazines.

I'm leaving home.

Please pray for me.

Ramblers and drifters, rackers and grifters, depressives and uplifters,shape shifters, shop lifters.

It starts to feel naive. Yeah. That I ever believe.

Yeah. Heart upon my sleeve.

Yeah. But that was just a dream. Yeah.

Teenage lust. Paul Westerberg. Rock and roll will have you heard.

Tina Turner. She survived. She always kept the flame alive.

Anyone I adore you. I've been shaken to my core.

What was all that dreaming for? I loved you more.

I lovedyou more. I'm glued to my phone.

Watching the fall of America.

One last call for alcohol. It's coming to an end.

And do all of my friends.

Well, I am not forgetting you when this whole thing is over.

We will dance. We will dance. We will dance.We will dance.

Trump DECLARES WAR On Democracy - This Is Not A Drill by Owen Jones

‘Donald Trump and his allies are seeking to use the assassination of Charlie Kirk to accelerate their plans to destroy democracy, destroy the opposition, and build an overtly authoritarian state. Now, whether they succeed or not isn't certain, but it is clearly their plan. Going even further than the regime in Hungary, which is a blueprint for the international far right, where Victor Orban has destroyed democracy in a meaningful sense. Remember when the far right claimed to be champions of free speech? Yeah, this was a lie. We said it was a lie and we were right. It is always the case. Has always been the case that it's a lie. It's a nonsense, a ruse to protect hateful incendiary speech against minorities from even being challenged because they would portray even verbal push back against such speech as an attack on free speech….’ Owen Jones

Trump Supporters Threaten CIVIL WAR After Charlie Kirk Killed by Owen Jones

As I write this, we don’t know who killed Charlie Kirk,. The Wall Street Journal claim that ammunition found was engraved with “transgender and anti-fascist ideology. But The New York Times report:

A senior law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the investigation cautioned that report had not been verified by A.T.F. analysts, did not match other sum‘A moment of terrible danger. Before the assassination of Donald Trump ally and far right US commentator Charlie Kirk, there were already big questions about whether an already deeply compromised US democracy will survive Trumpism. The looming possible violence and repression is frightening to contemplate.

On a moral level, there’s no justification for killing anyone except in cases of unavoidable self defence on an individual or collective level. I don’t support the death penalty in any circumstances, and certainly not for people with extreme views. Individual terrorism with such a motive is morally and rationally bankrupt. That doesn’t mean pretending Kirk was something he was not.

BattleLines maries of the evidence, and might turn out to have been misread or misinterpreted. In fast-moving investigations, such status reports are not made public because they often contain a mixture of accurate and inaccurate information.

Therefore we have to wait until motive is identified.

We know that the two would-be assassins of Donald Trump, Thomas Matthew Crooks and Ryan Wesley Routh, were not left-wing in any meaningful way. Crooks was a registered Republican. Routh had voted for Trump in 2016 then ended up backing politicians who belong to both parties.

Luigi Mangione, who allegedly killed the UnitedHealthcare CEO, wasn’t left-wing either: he seemed to have an eccentric mishmash of “centrist” views.

That hasn’t stopped Trump supporters lying about these acts of violence, however.

If this shooter happens to be someone purporting to have left-wing opinions, then - morality aside - they are completely and utterly insane if they think this would somehow advance the interests of the left. In what scenario can anyone imagine this happening? It simply strengthens the power of the state at the very moment it is under far right control. It has placed left-wing public figures and activists in great danger. That is very obvious…...’

Lyrics

Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?
He got an ice pick
That made his ears burn

Whatever happened to dear old Lenny?
The great Elmyra, and Sancho Panza?
Whatever happened to the heroes?
Whatever happened to the heroes?

Whatever happened to all the heroes?
All the Shakespearoes?
They watched their Rome burn
Whatever happened to the heroes?
Whatever happened to the heroes?

No more heroes any more
No more heroes any more

Whatever happened to all the heroes?
All the Shakespearoes?
They watched their Rome burn
Whatever happened to the heroes?
Whatever happened to the heroes?

No more heroes any more
No more heroes any more

26-1-25 Invasion Day by John Tognolini

Gadigal/Sydney Rally Belmore Park Photo by Vlaudin Vega

There is racism and hate in the air since the Fascist Trump was sworn back into the US Whitehouse this week and his boss Elon Musk did the Nazi Salute twice. It’s like Bigots and Hate Merchants have had like an Overdose of Steroids and feel free to speak their hate. I said when Trump was elected last November. What does it mean for us as Australians? Not the Little Imitation Americans of the Worst the US has to offer or the AUKUS Cheer Squad of politicians from both the Australian Labor party and Liberal/National Party. 

I hate Invasion Day and regularly attend the Invasion Day Rally in Gadigal/Sydney Rally and March. It says a lot about history or what passes for history. I saw a media comment. Oh the Aborigines were lucky to colonised by the British and not the Spanish or French. It reminded me of the Bicentenary 1988 and someone saying that on a Triple J talkback, I responded and they played me saying Genocide is Genocide no mater who does it.

I’m not ashamed to be of what Winston Churchill called the ‘Bad Stock’ about Australia’s Convict Ancestry during World War Two. I have two Convicts in my paternal family, my Great-Great Grandfather Thomas Batt, a convict sent to Van Diemans Land for poaching from Kings Somborne, Hampshire, England, who landed in Nipaluna/Hobart/ in 1830. And my Great-Grandfather William Phillips from Norfolk England, for theft who got fifty lashes for trying to escape from Port Arthur. He had arrived in Nipaluna/Hobart/ in 1844.

If we don’t right the wrongs and do the Truth Telling in 2025 about our nation’s history of Aboriginal And Torres Islander Peoples, we will be far worse than anyone who was sent out here as a Convict in chains. Also, by recognising their nationhood we will be entitled to our own nationalism. From what I saw of the march in Gadigal/Sydney and Naarm/Melbourne they were both massive in size, all the younger generations attending, people are reaching out for the truth and no force on Earth is going to stop them.
