Summary

After a record breaking week, I start with the Australian election results that stunned the experts, and the turmoil hitting Austrian politics. Then I get into the stunning news that the prosecutors in the Navy SEAL war crimes case sent spyware (allegedly) to the defense lawyers.

Music: Primus/"Too Many Puppies"
