    Barrie Cassidy is back from his break and keen to dive into the lessons for Australia from one of the biggest US midterm shifts in history. What can Labor learn from the Democrats about how to select winning – and inspiring – candidates? Tony Barry gives his take on why the Republicans lost Texas despite being bankrolled by the richest man in the world – and why George W Bush was so pivotal to the bad result for the right wing party. The Barries also discuss the prime minister’s trip to Turkey to attend the Cop climate conference, the newly commenced Big Build royal commission and the Victorian Liberals’ decision to preference One Nation in the upcoming state election

    Jonathan Yerushalmy and Reged Ahmad examine the Democrats’ failed impeachment attempt against the US defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, and ask: could we see another bid soon? The other Trump appointee making headlines is the president’s new chief of staff, Stephen Miller. Known as the architect of Trump’s tough immigration policies, the appointment is seen as a clear sign the president has no intention of playing nice with the other side, despite indicating he would do just that after the Republicans’ massive midterms loss. Jonathan looks back at Miller’s past to try and decipher how the descendant of a family fleeing persecution developed such hardline views that he has been condemned as a white nationalist

    As the Victorian election approaches it seems almost inevitable that the most progressive state in the country will soon fall out of Labor’s grasp. And now, with a royal commission into allegations of corruption and criminal infiltration of government projects starting just two weeks out from the vote, things may be going from bad to worse for the premier, Ben Carroll. But Labor’s defeat doesn’t automatically mean an easy Coalition victory. Guardian Australia’s Victorian state correspondent, Bentia Kolovos, speaks to Matilda Boseley on the end of Labor’s dominance and the One Nation-sized elephant in the room.

    The UN’s climate summit begins in Turkey on Monday, with Australia leading the negotiations for the first time. The challenge of bringing nearly 190 countries to consensus on climate action, when global heating is already falling short of the Paris agreement goal of 1.5C, will be a pivotal test for climate change and energy minister Chris Bowen. Speaking with Guardian Australia’s climate and environment editor Adam Morton, Bowen responds to criticisms about Labor’s credibility – owing to the country’s huge fossil fuel export industries – and explains the government’s commitment to advocate for our Pacific neighbours at Cop31

    The Democrats have had a resounding win, taking control of the Senate and the House of Representatives in a historic midterms result. Hosts Reged Ahmad and Jonathan Yerushalmy examine what went wrong for the Republicans and why voters turned out in droves to deliver the blue wave so many predicted. But perhaps the biggest surprise of the night was Donald Trump accepting the result and vowing to work with the Democrats. So will he? Or could this make him more dangerous?

    When One Nation’s political cartoon Please Explain first launched in 2021, the general consensus – even from the left side of the political spectrum – was that it was surprisingly well-made. But back then, Pauline Hanson was still on the fringes of political discussions. Now, four seasons and a movie later, polls have One Nation as the second-most popular political party in the country, and its cartoons are coming under increasing scrutiny. Matilda Boseley talks to marketing expert Toby Ralph about whether there’s a place for the show in a political climate where politicians are begging to ‘turn the temperature down’

    The first major legal challenge against Australia’s under-16s social media ban is set to heard in the high court on Tuesday – 11 months on from the policy taking effect. As similar bans are adopted across the world, the challenges – from online giant Reddit and the Digital Freedom Project - will argue that the ban prevents young people from political communication. Technology reporter Josh Taylor speaks to host Reged Ahmad about whether this is the beginning of the end for Labor’s world-leading social media ban

    Barrie Cassidy and Tony Barry discuss how the diving economy will impact Anthony Albanese’s – and Jim Chalmers’ – approval ratings. If the relationship between the prime minister and treasurer is so crucial for the nation, what happens when that relationship breaks down? They also examine the many elections playing out globally.

And One Nation is under scrutiny again, this time for a political cartoon depicting Bluey ramming politicians with a car

    It’s election season: the US midterms are just days away and Israel, Brazil and Serbia have all had consequential elections this week. Alastair Campbell from The Rest is Politics podcast speaks with the political editor, Tom McIlroy, about our ‘high-octane political environment’ and why he argues that populist politics began in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. After last week’s alleged attack on independent MP Helen Haines, Campbell also reflects on how the UK responded to violence towards its own politicians – including Jo Cox, David Amess and Ann Widdecombe. The former journalist and staffer to Tony Blair has just released his 22nd book, Persevilience: The Word the World Needs Now, and will be touring Australia next month

    In this episode of Guardian Australia’s US politics podcast, co-hosts Reged Ahmad and Jonathan Yerushalmy talk about Barack Obama’s war of words with Donald Trump, after the former president spoke at a campaign rally in Ohio and compared Trump’s White House changes to the Cheesecake Factory. But how effective is Obama on the Democratic party campaign trail? What are the risks around personal attacks? And how much does Obama’s legacy help or hinder when it comes to the midterms? Reged and Jonathan also look at the backlash over an attack ad from the campaign of Republican nominee for governor of Ohio, Vivek Ramaswamy, and why some are saying it’s a new low for US politics. Finally, how has the perception of corruption in government become such a key issue for voters on both sides of the aisle?

    Back in 2017 the then prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, announced an ambitious expansion of Australia’s towering public infrastructure project, Snowy Hydro 2.0. Estimated at a cost of about $2bn, Turnbull had made the decision after the closure of a number of coal-fired power plants and a political fight over major blackouts in South Australia. But nearly 10 years later, the project is still not finished and now the price tag has ballooned to $25bn. The climate and environment editor, Adam Morton, speaks to Reged Ahmad about the long, expensive wait for Snowy Hydro 2.0

    Israeli citizens are about to vote in what’s being seen as elections that are almost existential when it comes to the future identity of the country. That’s because since the October 7 attack by Hamas in which about 1,200 Israelis were killed, and the resulting war in Gaza that a UN commission of inquiry has described as a genocide, some say the country’s politics and views have shifted profoundly to the right. These political events have ricocheted around the world, impacting communities, politics and governments, including here in Australia. Chief Middle East correspondent Emma Graham-Harrison tells Reged Ahmad why this is Israel’s most consequential election in history and if it could be the end of Netanyahu’s leadership

    Tony Barry and George Megalogenis (filling in for Barrie) examine the response to the horrific alleged attack on independent MP Helen Haines this week. While the prime minister pleaded for all to ‘turn the temperature’ down, it didn’t take long for many to dial it right up, particularly online. So can politicians from all sides tell their tribes to tone down the rhetoric? And what lessons can we learn from history to help us all navigate toxic public debate?

    One year ago, Sanae Takaichi became Japan’s first female prime minister, taking over a party in crisis. Since then, she’s defied the doubters, not just surviving as leader in a country that struggles with its gender politics – but winning convincingly at an election in February. She has faced President Trump, fraught relations with China over Taiwan and was even the subject of one of Anthony Albanese’s biggest controversies this year. But could Japan’s prime minister be at her most politically dangerous moment yet? Tokyo correspondent Justin McCurry speaks to Reged Ahmad about whether Takaichi can ride out what comes next

    In this episode of Guardian Australia’s US politics podcast, co-hosts Jonathan Yerushalmy and Reged Ahmad look at how Katie Zacharia broke the record for shortest tenure as White House press secretary. They then examine the pattern of how women in the Trump administration are treated when they’re perceived to have made mistakes – versus how men seem to survive their missteps. They also look at how the US might be changing course on Russia’s war on Ukraine. Are relations between Donald Trump and Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy at their lowest point ever? And what happens if the US decides to take Vladimir Putin’s side in the war?
