Will anything stop Palantir?

The shadowy U.S. tech company Palantir has had a meteoric rise from complete obscurity to transforming the nature of surveillance forever. Pivotal to that rise is its unorthodox CEO, the philosophising tech-entrepreneur Alex Karp. As Palantir integrates itself into systems in every facet of life, from Australian supermarkets to the controversial U.S. ICE raids, Alex Karp provides justifications and bold mission statements for his company, citing a laser-focus on maintaining U.S. hegemony across the world. In doing so, he believes Palantir prevents the rise of undemocratic, far-right movements. But is there any line that Palantir won’t cross to assert U.S. superiority? And could they be in danger of undermining the democracy they claim to defend?

Battle of the budgets begins

As Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese continue their big budget sell, Opposition leader Angus Taylor is gearing up to deliver his budget reply -- and big political and ideological battlelines are being drawn. PK tells Fran and David Speers, as the two budgets and two different visions for Australia take shape, there's a sense of real contest and a "battle for who people can win over". David says the Albanese Government's Budget is the "most reforming budget" in decades, with previous governments have been resistant to creating "winners and losers". And in the immediate wash-up of budget night, he says Labor is feeling upbeat that they've "finally got something to fight for".So, will Labor reap the rewards of the political risk? Or will the Coalition's message cut through? Fran Kelly and Patricia Karvelas are joined by David Speers, ABC's political lead on The Party Room. Got a burning question? Send a short voice recording to PK and Fran for Question Time at thepartyroom@abc.net.auREFERENCES: Read David's analysis here Catch up on PK's IV with the PM here Catch up on Fran's economic wrap of the budget here

Karl Weekly: The Political Shift Reshaping Australia

Go to the Chris Joye interview: 09:45 Go to the David Farley interview: 24:49 Go to the Topher Field interview: 49:47 Go to the Gerard Rennick interview: 1:21:14 This week on Karl Weekly, Karl sits down with Gerard Rennick, Christopher Joye, David Farley and Topher Field to unpack the major political and economic forces shaping Australia right now. The conversation covers rising taxes, weak productivity, energy policy, immigration and the growing distrust in Canberra. Gerard Rennick argues One Nation is building momentum and says major tax reform is needed to reward working Australians and lift productivity. Christopher Joye delivers a blunt assessment of the Federal Budget, calling it “diabolical” and warning that excessive taxation and poor productivity are hurting households and businesses alike. Fresh from his win in Farrer, David Farley reflects on the campaign, regional Australia and the impact of energy policy and Net Zero on costs and industry. Topher Field explores the wider political and cultural shift underway, arguing Australia is entering a major realignment as voters reject the status quo. A wide-ranging episode on One Nation, taxes, energy, productivity and the future direction of Australia. This episode is brought to you by Revive5.
