Two different news stories about US-Australian relations have broken at around the same time, and together they sum up the story of US-Australian relations as a whole. In one we learn that Australia has agreed to manufacture missiles for the United States, and in the other we learn that Washington has told Australia to go suck eggs about its concerns regarding the US persecution of Australian journalist Julian Assange.

I was hoping to move to Australia to escape America. It's seeming less worth it as time goes on.
I think it should be abundantly clear by now that Albanese, Wong et al have no intention of lifting a finger to assist Assange in any meaningful way and never did from the start. Since Bob Hawke's election, the Australian Labor Party has joined the Liberal Party as little more than a CIA /MI6 asset.
Never forget who it was that kept the Australian trade union movement on a tight leash when the Whitlam Labor government was dismissed in a Constitutional coup d'etat engineered by MI6, the CIA and the Liberal/Country party in 1975.
None other than Bob Hawke.
MURDERERS
We are sinking into the cesspit of US foreign policy… It makes me sink to the stomach
The International Bankster Elites control of the "Five Eyes" nations is so very tyrannical. The People of the World (OUR world, folks!) need to realize that a GLOBAL DIGITAL PANOPTICON-LIKE PRISON is being constructed by the tyrannical Corporate Globalists. We MUST NOT allow it! Rise, Resist, and Deny the Corporate Globalists EVERYWHERE on OUR planet!
Australia is a puppet state a major prostitute nation! The hypocrisy states of America the evil empire the exceptional indispensable warmongering extortionist thieving blackmailing terrorist nation! Navalny good Assange no good!
Blinkin', Winkin', and Nod. (Blinken, Nuland, and Biden.)
They will be replaced, soon enough. By Republicans.
But we will try, Caity, I swear it.
Imagine the hue and cry if this happened when Trump was president. But the next republican I'm charge will have these powers over Australia.
Why doesn’t Australia manufacture something for export like cars, machinery etc rather than being a poodle for US military Industrial Complex?
How dumb and subservient can a country be?
You could say that this will probably prove to be disastrous for Australia but if you look deeper into it you’ll find it hilarious.
Australia’s manufacturing industries were sold off 20 years ago and now rely on imported goods, I have to ask “were will the components that are to be used for these missiles be sourced from “, I am betting that they will come from China just like 99% of anything available here.
Now that’s funny !!
Thank you Caitlin and Tim.
PROTECT FREE SPEECH …JOURNALISM IS NOT A CRIME .
FREE PRESS = FREE PEOPLE FREE ASSANGE
US Military Base with Marsupials 🦘 😆
Dear Oz …Mutiny is the best way forward…..just say no ….
A lack of ammunition is our major concern and will be rectified by our vassal state.
Thank you for todays update Caitlin. I appreciate the work you put into these programs.
I appreciate you.

One is the master the other a puppet totally controlled.
Australia gains ZERO as usual
I wonder when they will grow a back bone 😢
The US no longer has allies, just hostages.
