Summarization
The tweets criticize the actions of the Australian Federal Police, who are allegedly using tax money to take away basic rights on Australian soil, and discuss how current and former Australian Defense Force personnel should not be allowed to give military secrets to foreign powers, such as China. They also mention Andrew Constance's terrible handling of transport services in NSW, and the US potentially sending nuclear-armed B-52 bombers to Australia without breaking treaty obligations. Finally, attacks on protesters that help #IRGCterrorists must be investigated and ASPI is accused of serving US interests over those of Australia.
Topic Modeling
- Australians rights being taken away by the police
