[Emma Shortis @EmmaShortis]

So glad to welcome back the brilliant @NickBryantNY for our *50th* episode! What even is time?

Really proud of the community we’re building with After America. And very lucky I get to do it with the best producer in @AngusBlackman.

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

Donald Trump isn’t an aberration – he’s as much a product of US history as JFK or Barack Obama.

"Pretty much all of what he's done has an historical echo...although I was surprised about those poor penguins."

Part of the AUKUS deal involves Australians crewing submarines sailing under a US flag.

If Trump decided to take the US to war, the Australian government would have to actively delay American deployment to get those Australians home.

@EmmaShortis #auspol

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

Insecurity in the US/Australia relationship explains a lot about the AUKUS submarine deal, which is a symptom rather than a cause of the relationship.

The @Boganintelpod is getting some flack on 'The Bolt Report', but we forge on.

So far, we have had some great guests.

This week we are having @EmmaShortis to deep dive into the political nuances of the United States, and @IRanalyst will be unpacking the developments in the Middle East.

Check out our latest episode with @leckie_cameron, talking about Australian sovereignty.

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

"AUKUS would be the biggest transfer of Australian sovereign wealth in our history.

"And it was cooked up by a few blokes in suits and uniforms behind closed doors, sprung on the Australian people overnight."

@ebony_bennett @EmmaShortis

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

From leaking military actions to defunding research bodies, the consequences of the Trump administration are crashing around the world.

Join Dr @EmmaShortis in conversation with Dr Richard Denniss!

"We still see Australian mainstream media asking, 'What can we give him?'

'What can we give Donald Trump to make sure that he still sticks by the AUKUS deal?'"

"We know what kind of situation this gets the United States into. We've seen it in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it appears that the lessons of that history just are not being learned."

@EmmaShortis on the Today Show this morning, following the US bombing Iran. #auspol

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

"We're now in a position where we are relying on Iranian restraint...That's why these attacks were always incredibly risky and unnecessary," said @EmmaShortis.

"If that regime feels cornered...then of course it's going to respond. That was always the danger."

[David Milner @DaveMilbo]

Going live on The Sunday Shot with @instanterudite, @EmmaShortis, @bwolpe and @antloewenstein. Join us, instead of listening to shitty propaganda on Insiders.

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

Is there any legal basis for the US entering Israel's war on Iran?

Unfortunately, @EmmaShortis explains, "the question is almost moot." #auspol

On AUKUS: "it's in the legislation that there is a circumstance where you will not get the submarines," said @TurnbullMalcolm.

"If plan A doesn't work...we end up with a big fat nothing."
