Description

In this episode, we dissect the media frenzy over whether Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will meet US President Donald Trump, arguing that diplomatic theatre won’t protect Australia from the fallout of Trump’s chaotic trade policies and that Canberra must look beyond Washington to secure its economic future. We cover the police assault on former Greens candidate Hannah Thomas during a pro-Palestine protest in Sydney, exposing how NSW’s “Places of Worship” laws and Australia’s $4.1 billion F-35 program are being used to suppress dissent while protecting weapons manufacturers. We examine the Liberal Party’s deepening gender crisis and propose women-only preselections as a fast-track solution to achieving gender equity in parliament. And we unpack the historic Yoorrook Justice Commission report, which names Australia’s treatment of Indigenous peoples in Victoria as genocide, calling for truth-telling, land returns, and systemic reform.
