Labor had long opposed a model which saw such significant power contained within one portfolio – and removed ASIO and the AFP from Home Affairs. Now, in a spectacular reversal, and without explanation, Albanese is making Home Affairs even more powerful than the super-portfolio first created in 2017 – and it’s all under the control of Tony Burke.

Épisode 3. Cette année où tout peut basculer. L'année 2025 s'annonce cruciale pour l'océan. Elle a, d'abord, démarré avec une session mouvementée à l'Autorité internationale des fonds marins (AIFM) qui travaille depuis plusieurs années à l'élaboration d'un code minier en vue d'une potentielle future exploitation minière des grands fonds marins. Depuis 2021, les pressions montent de toute part, avec d'un côté, les pays comme la France qui sont en faveur d'une interdiction ou a minima d'une pause de précaution pour éviter que l'exploitation ne démarre aux dépens des écosystèmes, ni des générations futures, et de l'autre, des pays ou des entreprises qui y voient une opportunité économique inespérée.  En parallèle de ce projet de code minier de l'AIFM, se prépare l'un des plus grands sommets jamais organisé sur l'océan : la troisième conférence des Nations Unies sur l'océan co-organisée par la France et le Costa Rica prévu à Nice au moins de juin.

Immune Side Effects of Liver Cancer Therapy Studied in Latin American Patients

BUFFALO, NY - May 23, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 19, 2025, titled “Immune-mediated adverse events following atezolizumab and bevacizumab in a multinational Latin American cohort of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma." The study, led by first authors Leonardo Gomes da Fonseca from Hospital das Clínicas, Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil, and Federico Piñero from Hospital Universitario Austral, Argentina, investigated how patients with advanced liver cancer in Latin America respond to a widely used immunotherapy combination. The researchers found that although a minority of patients developed immune-related side effects, these events did not significantly impact overall survival. Their findings highlight the importance of early recognition and careful management of such side effects in real-world clinical settings. Liver cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, with limited treatment options for patients diagnosed at an advanced stage. Immunotherapy, particularly the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab, has become a standard approach. However, these treatments can sometimes trigger the body's immune system to attack healthy organs, leading to what are called immune-related adverse events, or irAEs. Until now, little data existed on how frequently these events occur in Latin American patients and whether they impact treatment outcomes. The researchers followed 99 patients from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Colombia, most of whom had cirrhosis or underlying liver disease. They received atezolizumab and bevacizumab for a median duration of six months. The researchers reported that only 18% of the patients experienced immune-related side effects, most commonly affecting the liver (hepatitis) and thyroid (thyroiditis). Most of these cases were mild or moderate, and half of them resolved completely within a month. Only eight patients needed treatment with steroids to control the immune response. Importantly, the occurrence of immune-related side effects did not affect how long patients survived after starting treatment. The median survival was the same—18.5 months—for both those who experienced irAEs and those who did not. This result suggests that while irAEs require careful management, they may not reduce the overall benefits of immunotherapy. Another significant finding was that patients with higher levels of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a protein often elevated in liver cancer, were more likely to experience these side effects. This information could help clinicians identify patients who need closer control during treatment. “Notably, baseline alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) values ≥400 ng/ml were significantly associated with the development of irAEs.” The study also points to key differences between clinical trial results and real-world experiences. While clinical trials report higher rates of side effects, this real-world data showed a lower incidence, possibly due to less intensive monitoring or differences in how side effects are documented in everyday practice. In summary, this study highlights that patients require ongoing vigilance and individualized care when treating liver cancer with immunotherapy. It provides valuable information to healthcare providers in Latin America and other regions with similar patient populations, aiming to improve outcomes while minimizing risks.

Landmark Court Ruling Could End Crypto Capital Gains Tax in Australia

A recent court ruling in Victoria, Australia, could fundamentally change how Bitcoin—and potentially other cryptocurrencies—are taxed in the country. In a landmark decision during a criminal case involving a former AFP officer who stole 81.6 BTC, the magistrate ruled that Bitcoin should be treated as "cash" rather than property or an asset like shares or gold.If upheld through appeals, this single classification change would dismantle the current ATO framework that has applied Capital Gains Tax (CGT) to crypto disposals since 2014. Under current ATO rules, selling, gifting, trading, or using cryptocurrency to purchase goods all count as CGT events. But if Bitcoin is legally deemed as cash, these transactions would no longer incur capital gains tax. The decision opens up the possibility of tax refunds dating back to 2019—estimated to total as much as $1 billion. It could also dramatically simplify crypto reporting requirements in Australia. The judgment is based on the idea that exchanging Bitcoin is no different from swapping physical cash (like trading a $20 note for two $10s), which is a non-taxable event.If upheld, this case sets a legal precedent with the potential to influence not just Australian law but other countries that share similar common law traditions. The episode breaks down key details from the court proceedings, reactions from the tax community (highlighting commentary from @taxinvestaccounting on Instagram), and what this might mean for crypto users and investors in Australia. It's a space to watch closely, as the ATO is expected to appeal the ruling. If it eventually reaches the High Court of Australia, the outcome could reshape the future of crypto taxation across the country.

In this inspiring episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Daniel Bassali, Vice President of Public Affairs for Americans for Prosperity, to discuss the launch of the One Small Step campaign—AFP's bold, nationwide effort to celebrate America's 250th anniversary by spotlighting the everyday citizens who are shaping the future of freedom. Bassali explains how One Small Step draws inspiration from iconic figures like Harriet Tubman, Betsy Ross, and Neil Armstrong—people who took action not for fame, but because it mattered. These American pioneers prove that profound change starts with a single courageous act. And today, that legacy lives on in community members testifying at city council meetings, homeschooling moms fighting for education freedom, and students like Caleb Williams who've become powerful policy advocates before the age of 21. Bassali and From explore how AFP serves as a platform to amplify these local voices, empower bottom-up solutions, and fuel a new generation of civic leadership. Whether it's helping someone write a letter to the editor or organizing grassroots momentum around school choice, every small step adds up to something greater. This episode is a rallying cry: You don't need a title or a microphone to make a difference. You just need to take the first step.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, who represents Louisiana's 1st Congressional District and is the author of Back in the Game: One Gunman, Countless Heroes, and the Fight for My Life, joined The Guy Benson Show today for a wide-ranging conversation live from AFP's Freedom Embassy. Scalise pushed back on media claims that Trump's reconciliation bill is "dead," pointing to continued votes and deal-making in the House. He also defended Trump's tax cuts, arguing they don't benefit the wealthy but instead protect working Americans, and made clear that Medicare reforms would only impact those who are able to work but choose not to. Scalise said Democrats are once again revealing their true colors by rooting for tax hikes on everyday Americans, while Republicans fight to ease that burden.

Augusta County Sheriff's Office embroiled in controversies

AFP editors Crystal Graham and Chris Graham have been hard at work this week tracking down the details of three ongoing controversies involving the Augusta County Sheriff's Office. In our Friday podcast, #TeamAFP breaks down: Augusta County: Family of man who died in police custody wants answers The family of a Staunton man who died in the back of an Augusta County Sheriff's Office patrol car on May 5 is trying to get answers. “There is real injustice here, and I truly feel like Stefan was assaulted to the point of his death,” Wade Gerencser, the brother of Stefan Gerencser, 39, wrote on social media, in a post brought to our attention by a family friend, Gary Bone, who served in the Marine Corps with the Gerencser brothers. Former deputy files $5.35M suit against Augusta County sheriff over forced resignation The $5.35 million federal civil rights lawsuit filed against Augusta County Sheriff Donald Smith that is making news today might need to be taken with a grain of salt. The reason I'm starting there: the allegations in the suit, Reynolds v. Smith, filed in the Harrisonburg Division of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia, filed on behalf of a former sheriff's deputy, Dennis Reynolds, were first peddled to me in 2023 by people who I know to be sworn political enemies of Smith, whose original sin was running for sheriff in 2015 against the handpicked candidate of the local political machine, and then winning. Augusta County sheriff reprimands Black deputy over lighthearted TikTok Augusta County Sheriff Donald Smith still hasn't commented on the lawsuit alleging that he sexually harassed a former male employee, but he found time on Thursday to publicly reprimand a Black deputy for comments she made on a TikTok video. In case you're wondering, yes, this was another instance of your sheriff letting himself get played on a public stage.

A full 68% of respondents report that their taxes are already too high and 80% say now is a bad time for a tax hike. There is also broad cross-partisan support (84%) for keeping the current tax rates in place, with 95% of Republicans, 79% of independents, and 74% of Democrats in agreement.  Here's release with more info on the poll:  https://americansforprosperity.org/featured/fresh-polling-shows-americans-eager-to-renew-tax-cuts-and-jobs-act/  Kent Strang is the Managing Director of Americans for Prosperity.

Our episode is a little longer today because it is a bit of a hybrid thanks to a live audience show I did the night before. I use the first 45-50 minutes to bring my normal show to you but then transition to a replay of the live event hosted by Americans for Prosperity in NW Georgia. To start, there is great news of a cease fire with the Houthis and a re-opening of the Red Sea shipping lanes. We now have word the owner of the vehicle that was stopped by the Tennessee Highway Patrol with Kilmar Abrego Garcia driving and filled with people, says he paid Garcia several times to run people into the country from the border. Next, we go to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's testimony on the Hill yesterday. To illustrate the level of intellect inherent to the Democrat Party today, we turn to Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY). Then, for the added cherry on top, we turn to mad Maxine Waters (D-CA) regarding DOGE. This leads to a short segment on why DOGE needs to continue working daily to find and root out the fraud, waste, abuse and corruption. Then we shift to the live show from Tuesday, May 06, 2025 at AFP. We start with a short conversation with Jeff Thompson of AFP before turning to Tony West. West joined AFP in Georgia in 2015. He has served in various roles before being elevated to State Director in October of 2023. Prior to joining AFP, he spent three years as an analyst in the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget under Gov. Nathan Deal. Our keynote guest is Beverly Peyton, newly elected head of the GOP for Bartow County, GA. We talk a lot about her beginnings, growing up in Chicago and watching jobs and factories move away, leaving her and many of her friends on the edge of poverty. Realizing she was a critical point of turning down a bad path, she instead enlisted in the National Guard and it turned her life around and set her on a path of growth and success. She started to become more politically active in 2016 and is now a local leader in the Republican Party. After the interviews, I discuss the topic of immigration, due process and how the Legacy/mainstream media wants to take pieces of the 5th and 14th Amendments to try to make their points. I also spend some time on AI and what it will mean for everyone. We then close with a short Q&A session with the audience.

As if we hardly need reminding that Chile's controversial pension reforms were the focal point of protests at the heart of the civil unrest or "estallido social". This has been particularly incendiary in Chile with the AFP's origins dating back to the Pinochet dictatorship. Chile has always seemed like the Switzerland of Latin America, routinely topping regionally adjusted league tables, but obviously it was massively inequitable and the pension system bred particular resentment over time.  On The LatinNews Podcast this week, we speak to Nicholas Barr, Professor of Public Economics at the London School of Economics and Political Science and author of numerous books and papers on the welfare state including pensions and higher education finance. Follow LatinNews for analysis on economic, political, and security developments in Latin America & the Caribbean.

(Deuxième épisode) Le dimanche 28 septembre 1986, à 17h30, Cyril et Alexandre, deux jeunes garçons de 8 ans, se rendent tous les deux à vélo au « talus » de Montigny-lès-Metz, en Moselle. Haut de vingt mètres, c'est un lieu entouré par des voies ferrées, des garages à train entreposés et des bennes à déchets de l'imprimerie voisine. Les enfants du coin aiment y jouer.Alors que les deux garçons avaient promis de ne pas rentrer tard, ils ne sont toujours pas de retour chez eux à 19h. Leurs parents donnent l'alerte et les recherches commencent. Moins de trente minutes plus tard, les corps de Cyril et Alexandre sont retrouvés le long d'une voie de garage de la SNCF, gisant sur le dos et violemment frappés au crâne.

You might think that the transition from a working risk management professional to a working skydiver might be a pretty over the top choice, and you'd be right; but to Dave Cicciarelli it was one of the easiest choices he ever made. With roots in skydiving that stretch back to the late 80's, and a career that kicked off properly when he went to work managing the AFP program for Roger Nelson, Dave's career has gone from Illinois, to Florida, New Zealand to Australia. Staring down his 60's and still going strong as a working skydiver, Dave Cicciarelli is the perfect Lunatic Fringe example of longevity in a sport that isn't just for kids!

What do you get when you combine a tied state house, court challenges, political walkouts, and a looming budget crisis? A real-life political soap opera—and it's all happening in Minnesota. In this episode, host David From sits down with RaeAnna Lee, Legislative and Coalitions Director at Americans for Prosperity-Minnesota, to break down the chaos that's been unfolding at the Minnesota State Capitol. From a tied House and disputed elections to lawmakers refusing to show up—while still collecting their full salaries—this episode unpacks how political brinksmanship has cost taxpayers time, money, and trust. RaeAnna gives a behind-the-scenes look at how AFP is holding legislators accountable, what Minnesotans are saying about the dysfunction, and how a $6 billion deficit looms just months after a record $18 billion surplus was spent.

Daylight Saving Time: Keep It or Ditch It? The Debate Between Arizona and Virginia

Twice a year, Americans adjust their clocks—except in Arizona and Hawaii. But is daylight saving time (DST) still necessary, or is it an outdated practice that needs to go? In this lively debate, American Potential host David From sits down with Stephen Shadegg, AFP's Arizona State Director, and Tim Parrish, AFP's Virginia State Director, to discuss whether DST should be permanent, abolished, or left up to the states. Stephen, who has never had to change his clocks in Arizona, argues for the stability and efficiency of sticking to standard time, while Tim makes the case that DST leads to lower crime, increased productivity, and economic benefits. As Congress considers the Protect Sunshine Act to end the biannual clock changes, this episode dives into the historical reasons for DST, its impact on businesses and public safety, and whether it truly benefits the country. Should states decide for themselves, or does America need a unified time policy? Tune in to hear both sides and decide where you stand!
