Liz Cheney is making waves, appearing in central Michigan to back Democrat Elissa Slotkin

The countdown is on as polling day for the U.S. midterms quickly approaches. Almost 39 million Americans have already cast their votes in early voting.

Both the Democrats and the Republicans are pulling out all the stops to secure as many ballots as they can.

One individual making waves is outgoing congresswoman, Liz Cheney.

The Republican has ramped up her attacks on pro-Trump forces within her own party, all designed to prevent certain GOP leaders from securing power.

The Wyoming conservative and daughter of former Vice President, Dick Cheney, lost her seat after taking aim at Donald Trump and his role in the U.S. Capitol riot.

Appearing in central Michigan, Cheney has thrown her support behind Democrat Elissa Slotkin.

“If we want to ensure the survival of the republic, we have to walk away from politics as usual. We have to stand up and say we’re going to do what’s right for this country. We’re going to look beyond partisan politics,” Cheney said.

Slotkin is up against Tom Barrett – a GOP state Senator who says the legitimacy of the 2020 Presidential election remains “an unknowable thing.”

While Cheney and Slotkin don’t see eye-to-eye on numerous policy positions, Cheney says if Americans “want to ensure the survival of the republic, they have to walk away from politics as usual”.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
