Yep, it happened. Donald Trump has officially announced his intention to run for President again in 2024. 

But does America want him? Not only will he have to compete with a Democratic nominee for the presidency, but Trump also faces a tougher challenge from within the Republican Party as Florida governor Ron DeSantis looking a formidable candidate in the primaries.

Lucy McLeod and James Law break down what we can expect over the next two years, and if Trump can be successful.

In our own backyard, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has met with Chinese president Xi Jinping, bringing an end to a frosty six year relationship between Australia and China. How did it go? What does it mean?
