Senate Matters of Public Importance - Julian Assange

[@janelee3130]

Free Julian Assange! We, the Australia people must do our part to help free Julian Assange! Please help his lawyers to stop what the US government is going to do with Julian Assange! His life is in our hand. Please help!

[@dandeeteeyem2170]

Tell President Biden he has till the end of the week to pardon Julian Assange, or they'll be evicted from Pine Gap

[@craigpilgrim5793]

After vax mandates, lockdowns, attempted health passports, coercion and manipulation of various means, we all want to be freed and brought home (not "home"). But Julian and his family much more so-heroes standing up for what this country used to stand for.

[@louisemusiclover]

Thank you all, for standing up for Julian Assange, Labor is a disgrace and should be ashamed that they have not stood up to Biden, and demanded the release of Julian Assange immediately!

[@WillowGrey-rs1ti]

FREE ASSANGE.................in my eyes all he has done is exposed THE TRUTH...............WELL DONE JULIAN............

[@Wickedtruth307]

As a US Citizen... please free Assange and keep him safe... hes a hero.

[@brontepetropoulos4755]

THANKYOU THOSE MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT STOOD UP FOR JULIAN

[@timwhale9434]

Come on Australia, step into the ring and get your son out of this insanity. Julian is a journalist and purely a political prisoner.

[@Shamshiadadd]

Some real politicians speaking the truth.

[@seekerout]

I never thought I'd find myself in total agreement with Senator Shoebridge on any subject, but that was a fine speech he gave and I applaud it.

[@frankdukes3804]

BRING HIM HOME!! Keep saying his name at every opportunity....💪❤

[@CohnmanTheBudbarian]

It is a shame on us all everytime one of these politicians do not stand up for Assange. Imagine if that was us being wrongly imprisoned. Meanwhile here in Australia, our govt is fighting over the voice... The irony.

[@phamthaiha1977]

Yep. Free Julian Assange! All Australian citizens should fight for his release! He is a brave man and a hero!

[@krisbest6405]

I,ve read news lies for 65 years. I stopped watching tv when l witnessed an event that was vastly different than the report. We are scared of that corrupt country ,they are highly weaponised and we are taught we are vulnerable.

[@zeburules]

Finally something sensible from the looney greens. #FreeAssange

[@cm4936]

Spot on.Well done

[@pafsrh4744]

free julian assange, and commend him for his truth ,we the people need to see fit his protection ,he stands for truth, people need truth not lies not adgendas not manipulations,this is what we people want and uphold

[@VesnaCenic]

Freedom for Julian Assange !!!

[@krisbest6405]

Gee this was gold ,we have truthful speakers.

[@oxelaroost]

More than three years i've waited to hear these words.. .. Thank you.. PLEASE.. DO NOT STOP.. the weight of silence was breaking me slowly.. It is unbearable.. .. then, Here you are.. and senator Rennick.. Senator Hanson.. Pauline will NEVER know how much her words gave me so much hope.. I live in NZ.. I feel you, are representing us more than our own elected officials... but we have new hope.. Lizz Gunn and NZLoyal.. they are speaking the same freedom language.. Thank you.. Thank you so so much..

[@ch4rmd845]

Free Julian Assange - He cannot get that time back - he never should have been held in the first case

[@lollypop2413]

Senator Renneck well said and Senator mckim

[@robbieelliot9491]

The fact that the USA will not allow Assange to be returned to Australia says ... AUSTRALIA DOES NOT HAVE A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE USA. we serve the empire.

[@jillfryer6699]

Close what? How do people keep saying this muck? Real crime not saying anything not known and said by plenty others anyway. And it’s true the US govt has not seen any reason to go after them. They are small unambitious operations, unlike Wikileaks. The crime was getting too big and important too fast. Silly paranoid gits should’ve just let Wikileaks run it’s course. It’s not heenious, the word is heinous.

[@phamthaiha1977]

Yes. Australia needs to try your best to bring him home. I am so troubled by his situation now. He looks tired and depressed. I feel so sad for his wife and 2 young boys.

[@iancooper2213]

Agree with greens on this one (about the only thing I agree with greens on anything!)

[@boeingdriver29]

The thing that disgusts me most is the lack of support from other journalists and media outlets . Assange is a hero and needs to be freed immediately and financially compensated for destroying his life and health. If Albanese doesn't act soon it will be obvious that like all past Australian governments his government is just another U.S. bootlicker.

[@pw1169]

13 years omfg

[@keshavareciuga4788]

I hope the major parties start to realise The voters are coming with sound understanding of the current climate either they serve human interests or get voted out

[@boss290bafalcon]

To Every politician that never supported Julian I call you cowards.. you’ve let this Australian hero rot in jail.

[@Snowman666]

Free Julian and let free speech be freedom of speech loud and clear and not controlled by fascist and authoriaens

[@naturewoman1274]

Free Assange

[@gjbell3127]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@Minka-t9n]

Free Julian!

[@lotus8576]

8 people are the Senate? Where are others? Again on paid holiday by our taxpayers money 👎👎👎👎

[@roseward7369]

off to a long lunch break.

[@iancooper2213]

Can you set up a petition to parliament for us to sign

[@jillfryer6699]

Been done and done. For what it’s worth. 🎉

[@roseward7369]

hands up all the corrupted POLITITIONS.

[@dabay200]

Excellent speeches by very honourable senators - but the vast majority of senators seem to be absent which is a little disgraceful considering he is the most famous Australian political prisoner in the world being held by ex-colonial master the UK and on behalf of their current Imperial master the USA.

[@roseward7369]

maybe we should have bring Julian Assange home day

[@murraykrause8869]

We're all living the Grand Lie & Julian will burn bright on that hill the Labor party was once founded on -the only Flame of remembrance that will forever yo light our way & to remind them how far they have fallen

[@jamals152]

HE KNOWS TOO MUCH ABOUT TOO MANY PEOPLE, KEPT SILENT.

[@grebulon9558]

All Julian Assange did was tell the truth. It is completely wrong, and completely vile, that he is in jail for doing this. Deep shame on the U.K. for holding him in jail. Deep shame on the U.S. for prosecuting him. Deep shame on Australia for not ordering the release of their citizen, and getting him home to Australia.

[@thekeytoanything]

Senator Linda White fits the Scientific research "Political Correctness: Social-Fiscal Liberalism and Left-Wing Authoritarianism". She is scary but easily explained.

[@andrewboydnz]

The mind numbing drivel she slurred out.... Like something you'd expect from an AI robot

[@elizabethscott7660]

No mention of the Aussie officers kia recently in Ukraine.

[@paulbucklebuckle4921]

Empty house , typical. .

[@Carlos-kt1wo]

Bring Julian Assange home!

[@desi4227]

Free Assange!☮️🇺🇸

[@nicholasjones9461]

Someone has to program chatgpt to make a protest song about this

[@Mister_Holdsworth]

Do they write songs about alleged narcistic rapists who hide from the law on the flimsiest of excuses?

[@John-gm8ty]

it's is ridiculously long past time to free this innocent man.

[@rotkatzeredcat4284]

Why is the chamber all but empty? Where are all the members?

[@bradwarrecs]

Bring Julian home, to Australia!

[@jchi]

Shoebridge and Rennick agreeing is something quite rare

[@dukejet6997]

Here here

[@darcycummings7214]

How about we start talking about joining BRICS.

[@darcycummings7214]

Albanese you have demonstrated that you neither listen to or care for the Australian people. We want Assange home so use whatever means it takes and get Assange home. If the US makes any threats as a result TELL US! What is it really that we fear from the United States.

[@afrozjaaman6238]

About time. I wonder what's the catch. It's never something for nothing by these people. Bring him home while he still alive

[@bruces2966]

FIRST TIME FOR A LONG TIME I COULD AGREE WITH THE GREENS BUT THERE IS ALWAYS A FIRST TIME FOR EVERY THING.

[@patriziabella8181]

Free Assange free Assange free Assange

[@reis1185]

Free my hero! 🥹

[@kajak012]

Who is the smart person wearing a musk/mask/ face nappy?

[@brucejohnston3521]

preparing for the next plandemic

[@elsonck2523]

Shame on PM Albanese and Foreign Minister Wong who continue their "silent" diplomacy with regard to the wrongful political extradition of journalist and publisher Julian Assange.

[@afrozjaaman6238]

What matters resolve?. No no no. We want him back home

[@alexboros1751]

ABOUT FUKN TIME! Why should ANYONE be held accountable for informing ppl of the TRUTH? THESE PPL SHOULD BE REWARDED & PROTECTED. IF YOU LIVE A LIE, HOW IS YOUR WORLD EVER GOING TO WORK?

[@jillfryer6699]

And we all know the necessary legal processes can be and are being dragged on as long as needed. It’ll end with death, capitulation, compromise or something else. Never mind the collateral damage. So, the UK is a foreign country? With a foreign legal system. We just invented ours all alone.

[@davidsea1482]

Freedom is not free. Free Julian.

[@LiveFreeOz]

Close pine gap

[@forevershining]

He is a real hero, yet you all have your football hero's they will protect your freedom

[@CorzIlla]

You know who to vote for next election. And, who not to vote for.

[@jillfryer6699]

Peter Whish Wilson is about the best. Sad seeing how few are there in the Senate. Can’t even see 30, the number supposed to support him. I wish they’d leave Chelsea Manning alone. And drop the happy family sentimentality too. Most people don’t have them and who cares? Leaks will go on, whistles blow , as forever, life blood of news. Just don’t get a big name and be too successful as a business. That’s America’s business, not yours. 😊

[@petermochnacki4810]

Its a no brainer. Putting maximum pressure on US and UK to free Julian Assange will cement a huge block of votes at the next election. Perhaps Labor doesn't want another term.

[@lollypop2413]

Australia has no b....ls

[@bobjackson4720]

All the speeches were great except the pathetic Labour response. If it was a U.S. citizen in trouble it would be a totally different situation.

[@kg3718]

Why didn’t Trump pardon Julian

[@malpa359]

Amazing to see politicians supporting a rapist

[@whatwhyandwhos68]

Truth is deadly Senator Wong doesn’t sit right with me.

[@Adam-mb5bg]

Do your job, prime minister bring your citizen home that is one of your most important roles as a leader of this country , the USA does not have any right to hold an Australian citizen in a third country. You are wreak if you don't and should leave office otherwise

[@Mister_Holdsworth]

Someone needs to save Julian from himself. He's the one not allowing them to extradite him to the USA to face a court that will find he did nothing wrong.

[@elizabethscott7660]

It's to be a closed military court. You really think they'll let him go?

[@Mister_Holdsworth]

@@elizabethscott7660 I really think they will sentence him and then pardon him, no different than happened to Chelsea. Julian would be out by now if he worked on his case rather than forever running from the law and continually trying every method to avoid it. He's denying his own justice.

[@greenhammer3263]

Dont believe you

[@karensheehan2878]

They particularly the Dems want to kill him. He can hack anything. This goes back to Killary.

[@lollypop2413]

They will lock him up forever. No justice

[@mattbattler3994]

Set Julian Assange free and our government should lean on america as a so called ally.

[@noelrossbridge2514]

There's plenty of American tourists, Funnel Web spiders and hypodermic syringes. We'll even things out.

[@forevershining]

This shows how corrupt our world is yet we just accept this
