As the US election began to rapidly slip away from Kamala Harris, it became clear that the presidential candidate wasn’t going to speak at her election night rally in Washington D.C.

That’s when people started slipping out of the event, including Dr Emma Shortis.

Donald Trump is projected to win not just the presidency, but also the popular vote.

Today, senior researcher at The Australia Institute Dr Emma Shortis on Donald Trump’s projected return to the White House, and what it means for the future of the Democratic Party.

While the world focuses on the war underway in Iran, Israel and the Gulf, there is another war front developing – Lebanon.

Lebanon’s Iranian-backed Shia group, Hezbollah dragged the country into the war, attacking Israel after a joint US-Israeli airstrike killed Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Israel then hit back, bombing Beirut and amassing tens of thousands of troops on the border.

Meanwhile, more than a million Lebanese people are now displaced, forced to flee their homes as the attacks continue and Israel demands evacuations.

Today, Michael Young, editor of Carnegie’s Middle East Center blog on whether Lebanon could see a ground invasion and what Israel’s plan is to reshape the region.

Brett Hosking is a fifth-generation grain and livestock farmer, and has seen his fair share of heartache and hard times.

But this time, it’s not a natural disaster or a foreign war that’s threatening to tip farmers over the edge, but a decision from the Victorian government.

The state has passed new compulsory acquisition laws which make it easier for energy companies to acquire farmers’ land and build transmission lines and renewable energy projects on it.

Today, Victorian Farmers Federation President, Brett Hosking, on why the government’s push to roll out renewables and transition lines in rural Australia has left farmers feeling devastated and disrespected.

“Grown men reduced to tears”: the laws pushing farmers to the brink

Australians are in for a world of pain, with mortgages and rents set to rise after our second interest rate hike in as many months.

It was a line-ball decision from the Reserve Bank – with five members voting for a quarter of a percent jump and four against – putting our official cash rate at 4.1 per cent.

RBA Governor Michelle Bullock says high inflation left them with no choice, but others have slammed the call.

Today, Chief Economist at The Australia Institute, Greg Jericho, on why he thinks the RBA has got it horribly wrong.
