"Omg! Australia is attacking the US!" <- How our (US) media covers this, probably.
What is our dumbfuck president claiming for an excuse to tariff another one of our Five Eyes allies? What is the perceived slight that has set off this unstable man-baby POTUS?
(Did not read the article.. assuming answers can be found there.)
(Edit: have now read the article)
President Trump's announcement was made a day after Australia's Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Richard Marles met with American Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.
'That this advice has been given the day after our Deputy Prime Minister was in Washington to hand over billions of dollars to secure the AUKUS submarine deal is particularly troubling,' Mr Willox said.
This is all they said about the potential motivations. They had a meeting with our Christian Nationalist unqualified news commentator defense secretary, made a deal where Australia is paying the US for submarines. Now you all are getting Art-of -the-Deal'd. I would call it extortion and an act of war.
Don't need a degree to be a critical thinker and practice good journalism. However, evidence is mounting that MBFC may not actually be unbiased or fair. Shame, as I use it as a heuristic for unfamiliar sources.
He was way too damn smart, a real escape artist. He opened the door on his cage. I wrapped a paperclip around it to add security. He still escaped.
Couldn't find him for a day or two. Heard him inside my bed which was not on a frame, so he chewed his way inside from the side. Gorged himself on foam and was fully blocked up. Died of intestinal trauma.
I couldn't keep him locked up, and he killed himself.
Guess I'll have to reconsider trusting mediabiasfactcheck. Going to carefully read their analysis and factcheck later on when I have time. That particular article doesn't seem like misinfo to me. As I like to say, facts are facts, regardless of the source. If the article is citing sources and I can trace it back, then I will decide to trust the site.
Sucks that it's so much work to get reliable info these days
Facts are facts, regardless:
"It has also emerged that nefarious activities by USAID were well documented across the globe.
There are reports that USAID built a fake Cuban Twitter platform called ZunZuneo, designed to lure young users and slowly feed them anti-government content to spark protests and was funded in secret through shell companies.
The plan collapsed when exposed in 2014.
USAID was accused of funding regime change in Venezuela after it poured millions into opposition groups trying to overthrow the leaders of that country, President Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro.
It trained activists, bankrolled anti-government media, and was linked to the failed 2002 coup against President Chávez.
In 2014, USAID and the National Endowment for Democracy poured money into opposition groups and media in Ukraine.
Other countries where it was accused of meddling in political affairs include Bolivia, Haiti and Afghanistan."
That's a real bad bug if the failure condition is to bypass your system security settings.
I saw after I commented that you had already configured it to block. Didnt feel necessary to correct it..
