as an American I trust this news source so much more, I love how entertaining, concise and informative this program is. Thanks Australia 🙏🏼

Admiral Mike Rogers might be the best guest this show has had on. His analysis and comparison of Obama, Trump and Harris was excellent.

[omarkhanji]

I was completely in awe of Admiral Mike Rogers - one of the best guests you guys have had this year. Such a polite and well spoken man ❤

[jimgraham]

Many things that undermine US security also undermine that of Australia. We cant be disinterested in such things.

[davidstorrs]

That was the nicest possible way to say "Obama was organized and a hard worker, Trump couldn't be bothered to read the materials."

[Scarletpimpanel]

This is ace reporting. ABC getting back to form? This is what we want from our public broadcaster.

At 31:35, Adm Rogers completely concurred with what Gen Kelly is saying. He said Trump wanted complete loyalty to himself and not to the nation or the Constitution.

[enthronedking]

He doesn't want to appear to be "taking sides" but he's obviously trying hard not to call Trump ignorant, impulsive and unprepared. It's semi-admirable in a way.

[tbmillion]

Great job on booking such a high profile and thoroughly informed guy to talk in person on this little show in Aus.

[jackgrego]

Australian broadcasting corp news on the US election being better quality than what I’m seeing come out of the US is crazyyy

[StarsAndAngels]

"Rude, you're in America a child could be using that gun" as an American watching I laughed soo hard I spit out my iced coffee 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[edwinvasconez]

The enemy within can be anyone who Trump has designated as against him or will not do what he wants... VP Pence

[youarehere.]

John is so brilliant and clear in putting Chas's insane sane-washing in its place.

[carlsciarra]

There’s no reason to compare Harris’ remarks with Trumps enemy of the people statement in its full context, other than to try and muddy the waters. Her remarks were clearly consistent with what Trump said and attempted to do during his presidency as confirmed by his own generals, aids & Chief of staff. This is another perfect example of Chas putting his thumb on the scale while trying to appear balanced.

@Chaz, Trump specifically referred to Pelosi and Schiff as the enemy within. He made it very clear. You are doing exactly what Baier did and relying on the Bartiromo clip when Trump days earlier already made it clear what he meant.

[kateKraft-co]

LOVE the show but Chaz seems way too inclined to sane wash Rump, make light of his shortfalls and underplay the threat he poses to the world

I love how reasonable, sensible and logical John is. Certainly the adult in the room.

[NiceAussie]

I met Admiral Mike Rogers face to face briefly in Alice Springs when he visited for the 50th anniversary of Pine Gap. While I didn’t converse with him, he was very polite with me even though he definitely didn’t have a clue who I was. I took him to be a genuinely nice person. Seeing this interview only confirms my opinion.

[Recreated]

When's John Barron coming on PEP? I'd love to hear his thoughts in a longer format

[loosestones]

What an amazing interview and interviewee. Always a great program, but exceptional tonight
