Ep 5: Will We Regret Trump's National Emergency?

1 hour

Does the passage of the medivac bill really show the decline of major political parties in Australia (1:40-17:20)? What does the declaration of a national emergency mean for America, and could the same words be used to enable a disastrous climate change political agenda (17:20-31:03)? And is the Space Force a sign we’re headed for a new Cold War in space (31:03-38:55)? Scott Hargreaves and Dr Chris Berg are joined by Dr Richard Allsop and Gideon Rozner to discuss these issues and share what they’ve been reading, watching or listening to this week.
