US Defence Secretary Accidentally Adds Journalist To Sensitive Group Chat

The National Disability Insurance Scheme was designed as a lifetime guarantee, ensuring eligible Australians receive the individualised support needed to live an ordinary life. 

In a major shift ahead of the May Budget, the government is moving to tighten spending, including a plan to remove 160,000 people from the NDIS.

But for the families who rely on this funding for therapy and essential daily support, there is a growing fear that the safety net is being pulled back before public systems are ready to catch them.

We're joined by ABC National Disability Affairs Reporter Nas Campanella to unpack what these changes actually look like in practice and whether the NDIS can be made sustainable without leaving our most vulnerable behind.

🗞️ HEADLINES
Fuel tax cut extension could be on the cards as national cabinet get an update on Australia's fuel crisis. 
Iranian state media reports the country has seized two ships in the Strait of Hormuz
The Allan Labor government unveils a nearly $138million plan to curb crime in Victoria
New Kylie Minogue documentary announced, charting the stars success and enduring legacy as a pop icon.

HEADLINES: Trump Extends Ceasefire & Harry Styles Rumoured To Be Engaged

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/39654126-c167-44db-8c5f-b433018138b9/transcript

It starts with a message in a group chat: a man asking for advice on exactly how much sedative to slip into his wife’s tea tonight so he can sexually assault her while she's unconscious.

Following the horrific 2024 trial of Dominique Pelicot in France, a new investigation has revealed that this wasn't an isolated case, but a thriving global ecosystem. From 'sleep' content on major porn sites to private forums where men livestream their drugged partners for a fee, the scale of this internet-enabled abuse is staggering.

We’re joined by CNN Paris Bureau Chief Saskya Vandoorne, who infiltrated these secret 'brotherhoods' to expose how these men operate under the cover of anonymity and why platforms are still failing to stop them.

If you or someone you know needs help it's available. You can contact 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or Lifeline on 13 11 14.

🗞️ HEADLINES
President Donald Trump has ruled out any further ceasefire extension,  saying he will resume military action if a deal is not struck

The Coalition has launched a negative social media campaign targeting One Nation ahead of the Farrer byelection
The Federal Government is set to unveil major reforms to the $50 billion NDIS today
