Feb 19 Ms Smith announces a referendum to initiate a process to amend s 96 of the Constitution (appointment of judges).

The right ran a huge, well-funded, & ultimately successful campaign to completely take over political media & the infosphere more generally. This is by far the most important political development...
The main reason is that they like Trump and want to help him, but another big reason the media no longer treats Trump's racism like a scandal is that, to them, the fact Trump did better in 2024 with black and Latino voters than he did in 2016 "proves" that racism doesn't matter for election outcomes
