Who would've thought we'd be talking about nuclear warfare in 2022?

The prospect is realer than ever with Vladimir Putin seemingly becoming bolder and more desperate as Ukraine continues its counteroffensive in the Donbas and surrounds. 

James Law and news.com.au deputy editor Liz Burke talk about the chances of the Russian leader resorting to the unthinkable, as he is ever embarrassed on the world stage by Ukraine's resilience.

Meanwhile on the other side of the Atlantic, the investigation into the US Capitol insurrection took a dramatic turn when the committee voted to subpoena former president Donald Trump to hand over documents and testify under oath over what role he played in sparking the riot.

Could we see some real consequences now, or will the teflon man escape once again? And with just weeks to go until the midterm elections, how will it affect the Republican Party?

And finally, a Trump ally is also in the headlines for all the wrong reasons as Kanye West made a series of controversial pronouncements in recent weeks.

From his 'White Lives Matter' shirts at Paris Fashion Week to anti-Semitic rants on social media, what's Kanye going through? Liz and J.Law discuss.
