@TurnbullMalcolm @EmmaShortis Sign our petition calling for an independent parliamentary inquiry into AUKUS. ✍️ theaus.in/450PRtg

"We've got to stop having these momentous decisions taken by small groups of people in private." @TurnbullMalcolm & @EmmaShortis discuss Australia's AUKUS disaster. "The government sacrificed sovereignty to get security & it looks like we're going to lose both." Link🔽 #auspol

Part of the AUKUS deal involves Australians crewing submarines sailing under a US flag. If Trump decided to take the US to war, the Australian government would have to actively delay American deployment to get those Australians home. @EmmaShortis #auspol

Insecurity in the US/Australia relationship explains a lot about the AUKUS submarine deal, which is a symptom rather than a cause of the relationship. 🎙 International & Security Affairs Director Dr Emma Shortis @EmmaShortis #auspol

The @Boganintelpod is getting some flack on 'The Bolt Report', but we forge on. So far, we have had some great guests. This week we are having @EmmaShortis to deep dive into the political nuances of the United States, and @IRanalyst will be unpacking the developments in the Middle East. Check out our latest episode with @leckie_cameron, talking about Australian sovereignty.

"AUKUS would be the biggest transfer of Australian sovereign wealth in our history. "And it was cooked up by a few blokes in suits and uniforms behind closed doors, sprung on the Australian people overnight." @ebony_bennett @EmmaShortis

From leaking military actions to defunding research bodies, the consequences of the Trump administration are crashing around the world. Join Dr @EmmaShortis in conversation with Dr Richard Denniss! 📍 University of Melbourne 📅 Wed 16th July 6pm

"We still see Australian mainstream media asking, 'What can we give him?' 'What can we give Donald Trump to make sure that he still sticks by the AUKUS deal?'" @EmmaShortis #auspol

"We know what kind of situation this gets the United States into. We've seen it in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it appears that the lessons of that history just are not being learned." @EmmaShortis on the Today Show this morning, following the US bombing Iran. #auspol

"We're now in a position where we are relying on Iranian restraint...That's why these attacks were always incredibly risky and unnecessary," said @EmmaShortis. "If that regime feels cornered...then of course it's going to respond. That was always the danger."

Going live on The Sunday Shot with @instanterudite, @EmmaShortis, @bwolpe and @antloewenstein. Join us, instead of listening to shitty propaganda on Insiders. @TheSundayShot" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@TheSundayShot

Is there any legal basis for the US entering Israel's war on Iran? Unfortunately, @EmmaShortis explains, "the question is almost moot." #auspol
