It is very clear that we are poorly served by a growing class of arrogant and out of touch politicians, and Bowen is their mascot. Our politicians forget themselves. They forget that we don’t answer to them - They answer to us. They don’t pay us - We pay them. Chris Bowen has broken just about every promise that he has made. Industry is furious, electricity users are furious, and now motorists are furious. They promised that power bills would come down. Instead, power bills have gone up, while at the same time industry continues its exodus. The government is propping up a select few corporations with tax dollars and even taking over some directly. That is not the sign of a healthy energy market, or sustainable industry. It is not the sign of success that Bowen needs to maintain a modicum of credibility. So, Liam Bartlett calls him out, asks him real questions that cut to the viability of Bowen’s solutions to our real energy problems. But instead of answering Bartlett’s questions, the Minister responsible for the broken promises chooses instead to attack the journalist. Liam Bartlett is finally asking the questions that need to be asked. He is not just smiling and curtseying to the press corps - he is doing his job. Bowen shows us the answers, not by the words he says, but what he doesn’t say. It begs further questions. For me they are; Who does Bowen think he is? Followed closely by, who does he think he answers to? The answers are as obvious as the lack of answers he provides about our energy future. If it wasn’t so important, it wouldn’t really matter. But on a large and isolated continent like Australia, energy security is our life blood. Without an abundance of cheap and reliable energy, we will starve. Bowen might think his primary role is curating the swooning reporters he likes, but we all know that it is not his job. He answers to us. If he finds the questions uncomfortable, too bad. If the press required him to explain the truth of the storm we are really in - a storm that has been brewing for decades and is now spiraling out of control in front of us - then so be it. We can’t fix what we can’t see. Bowen must level with us. If he can’t fix the problems, get out of the way for somebody who can. Bowen should sit down with Liam Bartlett, and respectfully answer his questions. The people of Australia deserve nothing less. I just want Australia back.

This message is for everyone across this X community — subscribers, readers, creators, journalists, the people who amplify, and the people who are just beginning to pay attention. It needs to travel. It needs to be seen. And it needs to be understood. Over the last month there has been confusion, noise, and constant drama — and it all started when the Epstein files surfaced, Michael Cohen’s name appeared, and simple, fair questions began to be asked. Questions about accountability. Questions about justice for survivors. Questions that any person claiming to stand for truth should be willing to answer. Instead of answers, we got attacks. We got deflection. We got threats. Independent journalists. Subscribers. Members of this community. People asking in good faith. And here’s why this moment matters. For six years, Cohen has told the world he was finally choosing truth. He built an audience repeating that he had turned, that he wanted accountability, that he had nothing left to hide. But the second real pressure came — the second the questions became uncomfortable — he ran to friendlier territory, appearing on PBD Podcast, a space where the message was clearly aimed at an audience of one: Donald Trump. Think about that. When faced with tough but fair questions from people seeking justice, he didn’t lean in. He didn’t clarify. He didn’t help the survivors get closer to truth. He pivoted. So I did something important. I compiled a four-minute video so you can see Michael Cohen then and Michael Cohen now. His words. His tone. His direction. What the world isn’t being shown when the headlines move fast and the clips disappear. Because this isn’t really about Cohen. This is about whether we ever get the truth. Receipts win. Facts win. And every time someone tries to muddy the water, we come back stronger, together, focused on what matters: accountability. Watch the video. Share the video. Talk about the video. And remember why you’re here. Not for personalities. For truth. Because truth matters.
