The federal government is officially targeting the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

Executive Director Angelica Salas said in a statement: “We will not be intimidated for standing with immigrant communities and documenting the inhumane manner that our community is being targeted with the assault by the raids, the unconstitutional and illegal arrests, detentions, and the assault on our First Amendment rights.''

“The #truth is, in what became an impressive field of advocates, #Albo did more to secure my freedom than any other politician or public figure, even more than the late Pope, whose support was both moving and significant.
Against all expectations for an #Australian politician, once elected, he kept his word.

#Albanese lobbied former US president #JoeBiden at several meetings, pushing for Assange’s release.

Albo hasn’t just stood up to the #US to end the #PoliticalImprisonment of an #Australian – he’s also intervened for other Australians detained in difficult circumstances, including in #China. This government has proven itself unusually capable of rescuing #Australians caught up in #sensitive political situations.

Does this mean Albo will put Australian interests first and skillfully navigate tensions between the US, #EU, and China? I can’t say for sure. But I do know this: He can. Albo did right by me ... You don’t need to be a #bully to have a #backbone.”

I was bullied as a kid.
At secondary school (Elgin High School) I had enough of one particular bully, and totally punched him in the nose in the school corridor as we waited for the teacher to unlock the door.
The teacher came along, opened the door, told the class to go in, except us two.
He turned to the bully and told him to go to the toilets to clean up - there was blood. Then he said to me: "I saw nothing, go inside!"
I was renewed from that moment on.

Volodymyr Zelensky faced up to Donald Trump yesterday, and his lapdog, JD Vance, and gave Trump a bloody nose on the world stage.
Trump is a bully. No question. JD is his toady.
You have all seen Christmas Story. That happened!

Stand up to bullies in your life and worldwide.

The letter also claims that federal #law prohibits #schools from #teaching or promoting certain ideas about #race that the Dept of #Education deems unacceptable.

The dept gives schools until Feb 28 to comply…or risk losing their federal #funding, which would endanger the existence of many #colleges & #universities. This threat is a brazen attempt to #bully schools into making policy changes that the law does not require.
