The Pentagon is reviewing the AUKUS security pact between Australia, the UK and the US to ensure it meets Donald Trump's "America First" agenda, a US defence official tells the ABC.

Just as disgusting that the ABC keeps referring to Joe Hockey as "former ambassador to the US". But fails to outline his current role as weapons industry lobbyist. If they insist on calling on Hockey re #AUKUS, journalistic standards demand that his interests are declared.
It is absolutely disgusting to be lectured on AUKUS by Joe Hockey. He has a vested interest in AUKUS continuing. This is a man who had no concern for Australians when in 2017 he was prepared to devastate our social security system.

The obvious question for legacy media:. When will you change your tired view that 'the two-party system' is what matters?. Even with Labor's massive majority in this parliament, it's clear that the real opposition is from progressive community independents and Greens. #auspol.
both labor and independents enjoyed an identical 1.98% swing at the recent election. in fact, 45% more australians voted independent.

There's been much talk of "guardrails" to keep an authoritarian Trump and his Christo-fascist enablers in check. The last one just disintegrated.

What George said. Except that my exit from this hellscape is immediate. Hope to see followers and friends on the blue side.
1. A few days ago, I wrote a thread about the pros and cons of staying on this platform and asked for your views. They were very helpful. As a result, I’ve decided to stop using X from January 20. Already I’m mostly posting now on BlueSky (@georgemonbiot.bsky.social) instead.🧵.

"What happens in the world matters to Australia.". But apparently it doesn't matter to the Australian govt if it happens in Gaza.
What happens in the world matters to Australia. My focus here at APEC will be on promoting economic and trade opportunities that support our interests, and promote jobs. It comes at an important time as we work through the global inflation challenge. APEC world leaders will

"in an election where billionaires and business shifted towards Trump. the ways an increasing number of us find out about the world are controlled by a handful of tech companies, their shareholders and their largely unaccountable CEOs." @crikey_news .

A major theme in US election post-mortems has been the ascendance of social media influencers over mainstream press. What's been left unsaid is how Silicon Valley masterminded the shift.
