“‘Nobody’s going to walk with her’: can #JacintaNampijinpaPrice work with #Indigenous organisations if she becomes minister?”

Read the article yourself to grasp the support / lack of support for Price by Australian Indigenous leaders. Also read about the lack of reporting of protests at the Price press conference last Sunday.

Er müsste es besser wissen, denn wir sind schon seit 2022 mit seiner Regierung im Gespräch - und ratet mal, wer die ganze Zeit null #Kompromissbereitschaft gezeigt hat?

Er hat also in über zwei Jahren nicht die Zeit gefunden, sich mit unserem Anliegen zu beschäftigen, meint jetzt aber mit populistischen Falschbehauptungen gegen uns schießen zu müssen.

Der Mann ist übrigens Dr. jur. und hat seine Arbeit über "Bürgerbegehren und Bürgerentscheid in den Hamburger Bezirken" geschrieben.

Nur, um jetzt als #Senator diesen Unfug zu schreiben?

Zudem verbreitet #Dressel Fake-News, wenn er streut, wir wollten "#Werbung auf öffentlichem Grund ganz verbannen".

Das ist mitnichten der Fall.

Darüber müsste er sich als #Minister doch eigentlich einmal informiert haben, bevor er sich derart einbringt und mit dem Daumen auf die Waagschale drückt?

Immerhin geht es ja nur um einen demokratischen Prozess.

Gehört es wirklich zu den Aufgaben eines Ministers, alberne Tiraden auf "#LinkedIn" zu schreiben und Bürger:innen das gesetzlich verankerte Mitspracherecht und die Legitimität ihrer Anliegen abzusprechen?

Was treibt den Mann an? Warum hat er überhaupt Zeit dazu?

Ein Screenshot mit unserem Argumente-Plakat. Darunter von "dressel.andreas" "Konsequent wäre es gewesen, wenn die Initiative #HamburgWerbefrei auf Plakate 🪧 verzichtet hätte - so widerlegt sie sich selbst😉! Auch wenn es im Einzelfall mal nervt, gehört Werbung zu unserer bunten Stadt 🌆 dazu. Sie hilft mit, unsere Stadt-Möblierung modern & sauber zu halten (müsste sonst der Steuerzahler bezahlen🤨). Wir sind auch eine Stadt der Medien, Agenturen & Werber. Schwer vorstellbar, Werbung auf öffentlichen Grund in Hamburg ganz zu verbannen. Und: Wollten wir nicht alle weniger auf Verbote setzen, weniger auf diese absolute Haltung, mehr auf Kompromisse & Toleranz? Deshalb: Ich werde bei der Initiative NICHT unterschreiben ✍️ & hoffe, viele Hamburgerinnen & Hamburger ebenfalls nicht…"

“The #Nationals #leader, #DavidLittleproud, called it a “slip of the tongue” when Price, the shadow minister for #GovernmentEfficiency and Indigenous #Australians, told a campaign rally she wanted to “make #Australia great again” on Saturday. The #senator later claimed she hadn’t “even realised” she made the comments, then accused the media of being “obsessed” with the US president.

Guardian #Australia has obtained an image of the senator at an event with her family over the Christmas period wearing a Maga hat.

…

Guardian Australia has approached #Coalition campaign headquarters for comment.”

#Protest: The local chapter of #Indivisible is organizing a protest TOMORROW (February 20, 2025) at 12:00 PM outside of #Senator Shelley #Capito's office in Morgantown, #WestVirginia (at 48 Donley St). The purpose is to protest the unlawful executive orders that are gutting the federal government and putting Americans in danger.

Not sure if there's much of a reach to Morgantown or northern WV on the Fediverse, but you never know.

Insurrectionist Kashyap Patel invoked the Fifth Amendment privilege to avoid self-incrimination during legal proceeding related to the #January6th insurrection and related criminal investigations. The Fifth Amendment can be invoked to avoid Self-Incrimination, to refuse to answer questions or provide testimony that will incriminate them in a crime. He pled the 5th to avoid giving the prosecution evidence that would be used against him in criminal prosecutions that could lead to Patel's conviction. This is who republicans put in to OUR FBI! 🚨

Why did Kash Patel invoke the 5th amendment privilege?

TikTok Users talking about
“#cute #winter #boots” keeping people safe from "ice," are referencing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

"Cute winter boots" is just the latest example of #algospeak,
-- coded phrases and words aimed at subverting algorithmic filters.

As the U.S. government seeks to enact stricter controls over speech online, TikTok users are adopting more coded language specifically aimed at criticizing the government and alerting others to government surveillance of online spaces.

For instance, the phrase
"#Senator, #Im #Singaporean,"
a quote uttered by TikTok's CEO Shou Chew in response to Sen. Tom Cotton's racist line of questioning implying that Chew was a Chinese government agent,
is now frequently posted in the comments of videos by users seeking to warn others about the content they're posting.

The phrase "Senator, I'm Singaporean," has come to mean that a video is not something that the government wants, or that they're going to show this type of video to congress, a creator explained.

"I think as a #senator voting I presume you do your best to read the bills that you’re voting on. I understand it was quite large at the beginning but to say that it was only Elon #Musk that made people aware of what was in it, that can’t be true,” she [Dana Bash] told Hagerty, [R-TN] a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee. #USPolitics

I don't really follow politicians or know anything about Schiff but this is cool AF.

"#AdamSchiff, the freshman Democratic #senator from #California, is being sworn into office on a 1490 edition of #Maimonides’ Mishneh Torah, one of the most revered and prominent codes of #Jewish law.

Schiff, in a statement ahead of his swearing in on Monday, said the edition, published in the duchy of Milan, now in northern Italy, was “a monumental legal code and one of the most organized, comprehensive, and influential works of Jewish law.”
