Labor Is Using Your Taxes to Fund Radical Gender Treatments – Here’s Why It Must Stop

The Australian government is using taxpayer dollars to fund gender treatments, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries—even for children. While other nations are banning these procedures due to serious risks, Labor has stalled, allowing public funding to continue for at least three more years. The Australian Taxpayers’ Alliance is fighting back to end taxpayer-funded gender ideology and hold the government accountable. It’s time to stop Labor’s reckless spending.

Trump’s Tariff Gambit: How Economic Pressure Could Recalibrate the West

Trump’s latest tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China aren’t just about trade—they’re a political weapon. By pressuring left-wing leaders like Trudeau, Albanese, and Starmer, Trump is pushing for regime change in key Western nations. The strategy is clear: economic strain until allies align with US interests. Social media was phase one; now, economic leverage is accelerating the transformation of the West.

2022 Federal election wrap: Where to next?

Brian Marlow

Like clockwork, the moderate faction are decrying the only reason the election was lost was due to the LNP not being green enough and not putting more resources into costly renewables.

Let Them Vape Cake

By Emilie Dye | Free the People

I am a 24-year-old, and I love flavored vapes — grape, chocolate caramel ice cream, and watermelon, to be precise. Too bad five states and numerous cities across the United States have banned flavored vapes, assuming these flavors are ‘meant for kids.’ And worse, now the FDA is expanding that ban.

Bitcoin May Be the New Gold

By Emilie Dye | Townhall

Last January, you could buy a bitcoin for less than $9,000 — that's roughly the downpayment on a 2018 Ford F-150. Today, it costs around $37,000 — that's almost enough to buy the truck outright.

Why are we wasting so much of Australia?

By Pavel Pfitzner | The Spectator

‘Social distancing’ was the motto of 2020. However, with around 90 per cent of Australia’s population crammed into 0.22 per cent of Australia’s landmass, perhaps in 2021 we should start thinking about ways we could decentralise the Australian population.
