Day 20 cont

April 17: From twitter, former Aus law enforcement @strangerous10:

“Michael Sukkar (#Liberal, Opposition Housing) turns down (ABC730) Sarah Ferguson’s final offer to let public know how many houses he plans to build & can’t stop Clare O’Neil (#Labor Housing Minister) from correcting the record. Calls out the “absolute garbage” from Sukkar that #LNP built 13,000 homes, reveals it’s in fact about “350”#abc730”

Day 19

“Everyone should be paid a #FairWage for the #work they complete and it is time for the major parties to commit to this meaningful change for people with disability.

#People with #disability are being overlooked and left behind in the major party policy promises this election campaign.

… The answer to getting more people with disability into work is not to allow #CheapLabour, it’s to ensure we are funding #employment services that actually work, which allow people with disability to connect with work they find #meaningful and also gives them the opportunity to build their capacity to perform those roles.” — #DavidPocock

#DOGE assigned to work at agency where it illegally removed data

The ad hoc Department of Govt Efficiency team is assigning 2 staffers to work at the independent agency where a #whistleblower alleged Tues DOGE may have already removed sensitive #labor #data from its systems.

Just 1 day after #NPR reported on the disclosure filed by whistleblower Daniel #Berulis, DOGE reps visited NLRB’s office in DC for a meeting.

Day 18 cont

“#DanielJones, who has served as a bodyguard to #FarRight figure #AviYemini, said on #SocialMedia on Wednesday that he had walked unchallenged into the hotel lobby before he confronted #Albanese and asked him questions about #immigration.

Jones, a self-proclaimed self-defence #expert, has previously posted online that people should “train to make it easy to be able to #kill”.”

Show me people who #ASIO and #ASIS take an interest in?

When the DG of the Intelligence services talks about foreign influence, this is what it looks like. What foreign country paid our proclaimed SME for this kind of political action?

Day 18 cont

“Multiple #FederalPolice officers now flank #Albanese and #Dutton at press conferences. They’re not worried about the questions – both men mangle the English language enough to defuse any threat they may pose.

The police are concerned about the #PhysicalThreat. The person willing to shout angrily, to get in the face of the men vying to be the next PM, to win a few minutes of fame on #SocialMedia for their cause. Or, to the most #extreme end, something much worse.”

“It followed an incident on Sunday when about 30 people dressed in black, their faces obscured with #hoods and stockings, stood outside the #Melbourne office of #Liberal senator #JamesPaterson and chanted racist #slogans.”

“#DanielJones claimed responsibility for the #confrontation on Tuesday, alongside alt-right group #Melbourne #FreedomRally, in an incident that sparked #safety concerns about the ability of #extremists to #infiltrate #SecureLocations during the #election campaign.”

The two most dangerous times for diplomatic and political security is INGRESS and EGRESS from cars to buildings, buildings to cars. How did the extremists learn the TIME and PLACE of the PM?
