Australian gas producers reap windfalls as Iran war chokes global supply Santos, the country’s second-biggest listed oil and gas producer, finalised a deal with a commodities trader at more than double recent market rates.

We should be taxing the fuckers into the ground.

War profiteering used to be a bad thing…

When Dems win back the House - I am going to call my Dem Rep to name the general that gave this order, and bring the person to justice. I will do this every damn day and at every town hall. The rot starts w Trump but everyone going along are guilty too.

He's the epitome of baby boomer i.e born a few months after WW2, June '46 so if you were born in '58/'59 are you at the tail end of his generation? I'd have thought you'd be too young to count as a baby boomer.
The generation labels & years aren't fixed or completely agreed on I found out recently

Well according to Sasha Riley (who says he is a victim/survivor) Trump hasn't just abused little girls but little boys too. Plus there are reports of him killing puppies and maybe even a baby.

I don't think so. No biting was mentioned in K Johnson's deposition + I believe she was abused in NY. I read another account of the same "biting BJ" incident told by a friend (?) of the girl who bit & the friend said she ended up shot in the head! Looked like murder but ruled self inflicted.

I'm gen X but obviously his generation also brought a shit ton of brilliant civil rights/equality activists. He's in power of because of Corporate corruption and clever propaganda.

I know he's going for re-election as a senator but is there a possibility that these stances are just him positioning himself to be POTUS? I.e He's playing the long game by seperating himself now from the lame duck & imploding MAGA tent so as to present himself as a "real Republican" in their wake?

Wow, just wow! And yet the President of Israel; which has been legally adjudicated as committing genocide & whose PM & Defence Minister have had arrest warrant issued by the ICC against them, is welcomed here "for healing".
I'm actually glad all those who support genocide are outting themselves.

What is wrong with Australia's creative arts organisations. Seems to be a pattern of hateful organisers. Or are they fearful of certain fundamentalist doners?

I agree. I listened to a podcast explaining that with Trump's failing health there are huge cracks emerging in MAGA between the white supremacists i.e Mormon types & the Jewish MAGA's and who will ultimately take the reigns.

They're neo-Nazis so, in answer to your question, according to them, yes.

That said the og Nazis got their "Nuremberg Laws" from studying the US "Jim Crow" laws.

So...re' term "Neo and/or Nazi" it's basically chicken and egg. But they're all just hateful and pathetic "white supremacists".

We are happily allowing America to use the UK as staging grounds and as far as anyone, especially Iran, is concerned that absolutely makes us culpable and a target.
Our "allies" are engaging in an illegal war, and committing war crimes and Starmer is supporting them.
