After shaping Canada’s recent election outcome, Donald Trump’s polarizing presence now casts a long shadow over Australia’s federal vote. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese appears to be benefiting from an anti-Trump sentiment, with his firm stance and centrist appeal gaining traction as Australians head to the polls.

The Trump administration is preparing to downsize the CIA, NSA, and other intelligence agencies, cutting over 1,200 jobs. The Washington Post reports hundreds at the CIA have already taken early retirement, with further cuts to come via hiring freezes. CIA Director John Ratcliffe says the goal is to realign the agency with Trump’s national security vision. The administration has also scrapped DEI programs, fired top generals, and is shifting intelligence focus toward China and human sources. Some laid-off employees are challenging terminations in court. Tulsi Gabbard’s office has not responded to the reports.

Donald Trump is facing intense backlash after sharing an AI-generated image of himself in papal robes, just days after Pope Francis’ death. Trump had recently joked about wanting to become the next Pope, igniting further outrage. Critics called the move “disrespectful” and “narcissistic,” accusing him of mocking Catholic traditions and the late pontiff. South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham added fuel by endorsing Trump as a “dark horse” papal candidate. Trump attended Pope Francis’ funeral, but his social media post has drawn global condemnation and stirred debate about religious sensitivity and satire.
