NINE JOURNALIST SHOT BY RUBBER BULLETS IN US PREVIOUSLY CELEBRATED JAILING OF ANTI-LOCKDOWN PROTEST ORGANISER
Posted 11 June 2025
An Australian journalist who was shot by a rubber bullet in the United States previously celebrated the jailing of a protester who organised anti-Covid lockdown rallies. However a tweet has resurfaced in which he described the jailing of protest organiser Anthony Khallouf as “a good result” which would act as a “warning”.
“And hopefully a warning to any other ‘freedom rally’ protestors who want to attend tomorrow,” Tomasi said in 2021.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese confirmed he had spoken to Ms Tomasi on Tuesday morning, describing the incident as “not acceptable”.
“But how is it okay for your police force to be firing at unarmed Australian journalists?”
