US to blockade Strait of Hormuz + The women Trump fired

Monday Headlines:

  • Trump says the US Navy would start a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz
  • Anthony Albanese continues Southeast Asia fuel blitz
  • Convicted gang rapist arrested after five days on the run
  • Bondi stabbing heroes honoured two years on
  • Gout Gout’s win heralds new sprinting golden age

Deep Dive: Donald Trump has fired two high-profile women this year; the Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and now Pam Bondi, the Attorney-General. Why?

Trump has put huge expectations on his lieutenants during the second term – but both women also made serious political fumbles which cast Trump in a bad light. For Noem it was a US$220 million dollar ad campaign, and for Bondi it was her mishandling of the Epstein investigation.

In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith and Chris Spyrou break down the stories of Bondi, Noem, and their very public downfalls.
