A former defence minister doesn't believe the US will walk away from the AUKUS security pact altogether. The Pentagon's started a review of the agreement between Australia, the UK, and the US, which New Zealand remains open to being involved in. Officials will assess whether the deal fits with Donald Trump's America First agenda. Wayne Mapp told Mike Hosking the US remains fundamentally committed to the partnership. He says Australia is America's closest ally in the Asia Pacific —possibly its closest ally in the whole world— and they're hardly going to trash that relationship.

It's a Newsday Tuesday with Emma on the mic. She recaps the chilling spectacle that was the Bukele-Trump Oval Office meeting / press availability, including the Kafkaesque exchange over the wrongfully deported Maryland father Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. As Emma explains, despite the Supreme Court's ruling that the administration must make an effort to bring Abrego Garcia home, the Trump administration and and El Salvador's crypto-strong man both claim to be unable to abide by the ruling out of deference to one another. Emma then talks to Annelle Sheline, a research fellow in the Quincy Institute's Middle East program who's latest paper focuses on the U.S.'s prioritization of weapons sales over human rights. Annelle gets into some of the thinking of her state department colleagues over this issue, which she finds to be rooted in outdated American exceptionalism. The hypocrisy is particularly noteworthy when it comes to Israel, despite growing public sentiment against Israel's destruction of Gaza and perpetual subjugation of the Palestinian people. Read Annelle's paper "Under Primacy, Weapons Sales Will Always Supersede Human Rights" here: https://quincyinst.org/research/under-primacy-weapons-sales-will-always-supersede-human-rights/#  In the Fun Half, Emma further peels the onion of Stephen Miller's lies about the Abrego Garcia case, citing the administration's own court filings. She then delves into the debate between Megyn Kelly and Matt Walsh over trad wives and whether women should only tend to the needs of their husbands and children. Ben Shapiro and Some More News also get in on the action. And a caller asks how he might talk to members of his family who have gone down the conservative rabbit hole.

Impending new tariff announcements there are casting a pall over everything.First, despite another fall in long term mortgage interest rates, US mortgage applications were weak last week. They fell by -2% in the week following a -6.2% drop in the previous week. Applications to refinance a home loan decreased -5% to the lowest level in a month. But applications for a mortgage to purchase a new home rose +1%.New American durable goods orders in February unexpectedly rose +0.9% from January, following an upwardly revised +3.3% jump that prior month. This February result was much better that the anticipated -1% fall. But year-on-year the gain was just +0.5% and the result was largely ignored by financial markets, partly because it isn't expected to signal any longer improvement. On-off defence aircraft orders (+9.3%) accounted for most of the gains. Non-defence, non-aircraft orders for capital goods were -1.2% lower in February than a year ago. Markets noticed that.They probably also noticed the latest update of the Atlanta Fed's GDPNow tracking showing a current estimate of Q1-2025 economic activity shrinking at a -1.8% rate. This updated real-time estimate is unchanged from last week. It is also worth noting that the benchmark "Blue Chip Consensus" forecasts are starting to waver now too as the quarter comes to an end.Across the Pacific, Singapore's industrial production took quite a tumble in February from January, enough to turn its year-on-year change from a +8% rise in January into a -1.3% decline in February. The month-on-month reversal was a very sharp -7.5%.In Europe, the UK said their inflation rate dipped to 2.8% in February from 3.0% in January, marginally below market expectations of 2.9%, though in line with the Bank of England's forecast.In the EU, facing security threats from Russia, and a US 'ally' that is pulling back and effectively encouraging Moscow, is saying every citizen should stockpile enough food to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours in case of crisis. Most EU states are sharply raising defence preparedness.Australia is in its post-budget debate period. No announcement yet on an election date but it is widely expected over the next few days.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.34%, up +4 bps from yesterday at this time. Wall Street has started its Wednesday session and dipping further by -1.2% on the S&P500 on a tech sell-off. The Nasdaq is down -2.1%. The price of gold will start today at just on US$3016/oz and down a net -US$10 from yesterday.Oil prices are up +US$1.50 from yesterday at just und US$70/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just on US$74/bbl. The new American tariff threats on using Venezuelan oil are disrupting supply.The Kiwi dollar is now at 57.4 USc and unchanged from this time yesterday. Against the Aussie we are back up +10 bps at 91.1 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at just over 53.2 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just on 67, and up +20 bps.The bitcoin price starts today at US$86,866 and down -1.1% from this time yesterday.

Today, Russian forces occupy roughly 20% of Ukraine.   Last week, President Trump falsely accused Ukraine of starting the war, called its president, Volodymyr Zelensky, a “dictator” and initiated talks with Russia – but not Ukraine – to end the conflict.  Two members of the Ukrainian American community in the Portland area join us to share their perspectives: Tatiana Terdal, president of the Portland-Lviv Friendship City Association and a board member of the Ukrainian Foundation; and Yulia Brockdorf, a Ukrainian American psychotherapist in Hillsboro who is the co-founder and president of DAWN, a nonprofit which delivers medical supplies and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

Last week, Hurricane Oscar devastated the Cuban island destroying over 1000 homes and directly killing at least six people. As a result of the natural disaster, millions of people are still without power and bread rations have been reduced to the size of a bar of soap. Cuba has repeatedly appealed to the international community, and especially the United States to lift the embargo which has strangled the government's capacity to trade in the international arena and by extension provide stability for its citizens. Yesterday, October 27th, activists gathered at Grand Central to demand that the U.S. Let's Cuba Live! In road to the UN General Assembly vote to end the blockade against Cuba.

Getting to zero by 2050 might be the most difficult challenge humanity has ever taken on. That's because nearly everything we do in our daily lives contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, from how we plug in to how we grow things, make things, get around, and stay cool and warm.

There, she supported Senator Stabenow's energy and environmental policy agenda and responsibilities as chair of the Senate Democratic Policy & Communications Committee.

Today, we're talking about politics and lobbying in America. It's hard to imagine a time when the influence of big corporations and billionaires didn't touch every part of American politics, but the kind of lobbying we have now didn't really exist before the 1970s. Now, our political debates about everything from energy, finance, and healthcare are deeply intertwined with corporations and their money — and new big players in tech now spend tons of political money of their own. To understand the structure of today's political lobbying and how we go here, I brought Pulitzer Prize winner Brody Mullins on the show. Brody has a new book he co-wrote with his brother Luke Mullins called The Wolves of K Street: The Secret History of How Big Money Took Over Big Government, which came out last month. It's a definitive history of modern lobbying in America, told through the lens of some of the industry's most unsavory characters and the influence they've exerted on DC politics across decades.  Links: If Donald Trump Wins, Paul Manafort Will Be Waiting in the Wings | NYT Meta had its biggest lobbying quarter ever | The Verge Apple quietly bankrolled a lobbying group for app developers | The Verge The Many Reinventions of a Legendary Washington Influence Peddler | Politico  The Wolves of K Street review: how lobbying swallowed Washington | The Guardian Big Tech Has a New Favorite Lobbyist: You | WSJ SOPA bill shelved after global protests from Google, Wikipedia and others | WashPo The Russia Inquiry Ended a Democratic Lobbyist's Career.
