2025 “He didn’t come during his first term as president, but American presidents will always be welcome here, as are other international visitors.” — Australian PM

VS

1966 “Outside Melbourne Town Hall, a carefully prepared civic welcome was swept aside in a minute. Civic dignitaries and their wives were crushed, bruised and pummeled by surging people.

Fist #fights broke out, and police, soldiers and American security men fought desperately, but vainly to keep the frenzied crowd clear of the President.

A number of people #fainted but the crush was so great they could not collapse underfoot…. Plastic bags of paint were #thrown at the President's car as it pulled slowly away from #ElmTree House. A bag burst over the windscreen and the canopy, splattering paint over three of the President's security guards.

The President's comment was: "I guess he just couldn't stand the size of that turnout." — referring to the size of his car.”

The “Bubble top” was down.

“Last night as he swept out of Melbourne two hours behind schedule he promised he would return, probably at the end of the war in Vietnam. The Presidential jetliner, Air Force 1, left Essendon at 10 p.m.” LBJ in Melbourne 1966.

'Where’s the urgency from Labor?
Albanese doesn’t do urgent. It’s hard to know what his government is trying to do, let alone how they plan to do it. It’s also hard to know what Albanese will fight for, because we’ve never seen him fight for anything before, other than power.' #auspol #AustralianPolitics #AnthonyAlbanese #AustralianLaborParty #Election2025 nickfeik.substack.com/p/why-al

#TANC Mobilizes 100 #Tenants to Disrupt Berkeley #Landlords’ Obscene Eviction Celebration

On Tuesday, September 12th, TANC mobilized more than 100 tenants to disrupt Berkeley landlords’ obscene celebration of eviction.

With less than a day’s notice, our members rallied with banners and signs outside Freehouse Pub, where the Berkeley Property Owners Association hoped to celebrate the end of local pandemic-era eviction restrictions. We later carried into the party a cake decorated with the words, “Hey landlords! Get a real job!” and chanted, among other things, “Eat the cake.”

As widely reported, #BPOA members were quick to anger, attacking tenants unprovoked. We stand with our members who were assaulted by landlords, just as we stand with any tenant facing eviction. :antifa_100:
