Women on social media have begun filming themselves openly fantasising about poisoning the beverages of male Donald Trump supporters. The murder-fantasy videos come in response to Trump’s presidential election victory and fears about abortion rights. Many videos have been posted to social media sites such as X and TikTok and have accumulated millions of views. The videos feature young and middle-aged women simulating spiking a drink with an unknown substance. These videos have launched a new movement called “Make Aqua Tofana Great Again” or “MATGA”. According to the New York Post, Giulia Tofana was a woman from 17th-century Italy who sold poison to women in abusive relationships. The poison sold by Tofana allegedly led to the death of over 600 men, with her deadly poison mix eventually being named “Aqua Tofana”.

Former communications director for the US vice president Jamal Simmons has called on Joe Biden to resign within the next 30 days to allow Kamala Harris to become president. During his appearance on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, Simmons suggested making Kamala Harris the president as a transitional figure.

"He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris president of the United States," Simmons said on the air. “It would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public wanna see is the time. “This is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats operate.”

Gold prices have plunged since Donald Trump won the United States presidential election last week. “One of the big things that’s been making the gold price just surge so much over the past twelve months … has been the fact that interest rates in America have been on a downward trajectory,” says Sky News business reporter Edward Boyd. “However, with Mr Trump now winning this presidential election, him talking tough on global trade and potentially reintroducing tariffs on global goods coming into the state, that will have an inflationary effect on America on their economy.”

Shadow Finance Minister Jane Hume has slammed the Albanese government for “making inflation worse” with the decisions it is making. “Government spending is making inflation worse,” Ms Hume told Sky News Australia. “This government’s decisions are making your life harder, making interest rates stay higher for longer and playing out in that backwards movement that we’ve seen in real disposable incomes. “Australians are paying the price for the decisions that the government is making.”
