## Resource

Australia’s anti-corruption watchdog is in freefall after its head, Paul Brereton, resigned amid mounting scandal — his departure comes as the Senate grills him over the Robodebt fiasco, military ties, and murky conflict-of-interest rules. Once meant to restore public trust, the NACC now faces a credibility crisis, with many asking if Brereton’s exit can fix what’s broken — or if the watchdog’s core mission is already compromised. Journalist Nick Feik investigates how the commission got here and whether it can claw back its authority before it’s too late. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
