WEBVTT - Headlines: Trump suggests second strike on Venezuela

0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:07.440
<v Speaker 1>From The Daily Os. I'm Billie fitz Simons.

0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm Zara Seidler.

0:00:08.680 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>It's Monday, the fifth of January. Here's what's making headlines

0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>this evening.

0:00:14.480 --> 0:00:17.200
<v Speaker 2>US President Donald Trump has said he might launch a

0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 2>second military strike on Venezuela if remaining members of the

0:00:20.560 --> 0:00:23.799
<v Speaker 2>administration do not cooperate with his efforts to get the

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:26.960
<v Speaker 2>country fixed. It comes after Trump ordered a raid to

0:00:26.960 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 2>capture Venezuela's president, Nicholas Maduro and take control of the

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 2>country and its oil reserves. Trump's comments to reporters a

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.720
<v Speaker 2>board Air Force One on Sunday raised the possibility of

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:41.040
<v Speaker 2>further US military interventions in Latin America, and suggested Colombia

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 2>and Mexico could also face military action if they don't

0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 2>reduce the flow of illicit drugs to the US. Trump

0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:50.680
<v Speaker 2>was quoted as saying Operation Colombia sounds good to me.

0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 2>He added that Cuba, a close ally of Venezuela, looks

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 2>like it's ready to fall on its own without US

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:57.200
<v Speaker 2>military action.

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Australia's parliament will return early to pass laws responding to

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.479
<v Speaker 1>the country's worst ever terrorist attack. New legislation is being

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 1>drawn up after December's mass shooting on Bondei Beach, which

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>saw two gunmen target Jewish people celebrating Huneker, killing fifteen people.

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Officials are still drafting hate speech laws, which were announced

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 1>shortly after the massacre. Prime Minister Anthony Alberizi has also

0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>promised a national gun buyback scheme and stronger powers for

0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 1>the Home Affairs Minister to cancel or reject the visas

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.279
<v Speaker 1>of people who spread hate or division. Parliament's first sitting

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.680
<v Speaker 1>of twenty twenty six was scheduled for February, but politicians

0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:40.679
<v Speaker 1>will return this month instead.

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Sam Groth, a former tennis player who has since become

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>the Victorian Liberal Party's Deputy leader, will quit politics after

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:50.919
<v Speaker 2>a single term, saying pressure on his family has become

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 2>too much to endure. On Monday, Groth announced he will

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.720
<v Speaker 2>not contest his seat of Nepean at the state election

0:01:56.880 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 2>this year. The announcement comes months after Groth and an

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 2>his wife, Brittany, settled legal action with Melbourne's Herald Sun

0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 2>newspaper after it published articles relating to when the pair

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 2>first began their relationship. During the legal process, it was

0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 2>revealed a Liberal MP had contacted the outlet with quote

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 2>a piece of gossip. When announcing his retirement, Groth said,

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 2>and I quote, realizing that some of it came from

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 2>within my own party has been difficult to ignore. Coming

0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:25.519
<v Speaker 2>to that realization has forced some very personal reflection.

0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>And today's good news. Australian actors Jacob Olordi and Sarah

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Snook both won awards are the Critics' Choice Awards in

0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>the US on Sunday. Snook won Best Actress in a

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Limited Series or Movie Made for Television with all her

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>fault In her acceptance speech, Snook said, thank you to

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:47.079
<v Speaker 1>everyone who looked after us. We had an awesome time

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>with the crew while shooting really difficult stuff. Fellow Australian

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Elordi won Best Supporting Actor for Frankenstein.

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 2>And that's the latest from the Dallyov's newsroom. If you're

0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:00.040
<v Speaker 2>looking for something else to get you back into the

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 2>new year's spirit, why not listen to this morning's podcast,

<v Speaker 1>We'll be back tomorrow with another deep dive, but until then,

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:09.760
