Podcast appearances and mentions of abraham accords

“Hollywood is about as left and progressive a community as there is in this country. And unfortunately, part of the box you have to check in that very left, super progressive space is being anti-Israel and being pro-Palestine in an anti-Israel way,” says Jonah Platt.Platt is a jack of all trades in the entertainment industry—an actor, director, producer, and singer. In the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of Israelis led by terrorist group Hamas, he launched the podcast “Being Jewish.”He recently visited Auschwitz, the largest German death camp, alongside over a dozen Muslims. He went with the organization Sharaka, which builds on the work of the Abraham Accords and educates Middle Easterners and other Arabs and Muslims around the world about the Holocaust.“Some of these people came on this trip at great personal risk. If you're coming from Pakistan to hang out with Jews in the middle of this Israel-Gaza war, I mean, you could be in real, physical danger. Some people—they couldn't be in any photos and their identities had to be kept secret to protect them,” says Platt. “There were Jewish slaves [at Auschwitz], working out in that kind of rain in threadbare pajamas, starving to death, and having to do physical labor and be shot if they didn't keep up. And meanwhile, I'm freezing in the cold, but I get to go on a warm bus and get a hot meal after this.”In this episode, we discuss how to navigate being Jewish and Zionist in a society that is becoming increasingly hostile to Israel.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.***Disclaimer: One of the producers for American Thought Leaders participated in the Sharaka program to Poland on an all-expenses paid trip.

Send us a textGUEST: SOEREN KERN, geopolitical analystPresident Trump just returned from his first overseas trip of his second term. Where a president chooses to visit first is a signal of his priorities. That President Trump went to the Middle East and three Arab/Muslim countries—Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and United Arab Emirates (UAE)—speaks loudly about Trump's hope to bring peace and prosperity to the Middle East. Interestingly, Trump did not visit Israel, even though he was in the region.Trillions of dollars in investments by Arab countries to American businesses were negotiated. Trump met with sketchy leaders like Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa and the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, who oddly gifted the U.S. a Boeing 747. Trump gave a major policy speech outlining his vision for the Middle East, which would have Saudi Arabia signing the Abraham Accords, a treaty normalizing relations between Arab nations and Israel. Meanwhile, Islamist Iran looms in the region, trying desperately to develop nuclear weapons.How to interpret all that took place? Christian geopolitical analyst Soeren Kern will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview Radio Program to survey the many facets of President Trump's trip and how it will impact America and our longtime ally Israel. Soeren will also discuss the upcoming U.N. Palestine Summit June 17-20 in New York, which aims to “Take Irreversible Action Towards Implementing a Two-State Solution.” These are some of the subjects Soeren will be addressing in more detail in the June 2025 issue of The Christian Worldview Journal monthly print publication that is sent to all Christian Worldview Partners.Is God close to enacting His end times plan of snatching away His church and allowing the antichrist to deceive the nations and persecute Israel before Christ's return? We don't know God's timing but we'd better be alert and ready.

America pulls out of the UN's globalist Sustainable Development Goals to protect its sovereignty. The EU resembles a modern Holy Roman Empire more than a union of free nations, and now Trump may be eyeing an Iran nuke deal—echoing Obama's dangerous legacy. After October 7th, some Palestinian clans are turning toward the Abraham Accords, seeking peace, even as Iran's true enemy remains America—with Israel merely in the way. All that and your calls—next on The Endtime Show. --------------- 📚: Check out Jerusalem Prophecy College Online for less than $60 per course: https://jerusalemprophecycollege.com 📱: It's never been easier to understand.

In this powerful and wide-ranging conversation, Ambassador Ofir Akunis, Israel's dynamic Consul General to New York, reflects on his first year in the role and the unprecedented challenges facing Israel and the global Jewish community post-October 7. Akunis discussed the vital importance of sharing Israel's truth amid waves of misinformation, especially on college campuses and in the media. He also emphasized the importance of outreach to all Jewish communities, engagement with U.S. leaders, and the need to counter rising antisemitism. From his work advancing science and tech in Israel—including the Beresheet moon mission—to his diplomatic efforts with the Abraham Accords, Akunis shared fascinating insights on unity, resilience, and Israel's bright future. With passion and clarity, he underscored that Israel and America share democratic values—and together must confront those who oppose those values.

Send us a textIsrael has launched Operation Gideon's Chariots to seize full control of the Gaza Strip and end Hamas rule once and for all. But as the war enters a new phase, the dilemmas grow deadlier and the geopolitics more complex. Eylon Levy is joined by DPR (Daniel Rubenstein), former advisor to Israeli Prime Ministers, IDF Spokesperson's Unit reservist, and Israeli tour guide, for a razor-sharp discussion dissecting the battlefield, the information war, and Israel's strategic isolation. 

President Trump's Art of the Deal is brilliant, but are Radical Islamist-sympathizers on the same page? Today, TheTerrorist Therapist® Carole Lieberman, M.D., poses the question: can Trump's clever logic overcome the illogical religious zeal that drives terrorists to rape and murder? It's the nagging question underlying his recent trip to the Middle East.President Trump visited Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. He met with their leaders, as well as the leader of Syria. He was given a royal welcome - with horses, camels, hair flip dancers, and dined on delicacies in fine palaces. He made billions of dollars worth of trade agreements benefitting America. But, each of these countries and leaders have a ‘mixed bag' ofpositive and negative relations with the U.S. For example, Trump made lucrative deals with Saudi Arabia and even  arranged for an Arabian leopard to be exhibited at an American zoo, while victims of 9/11 are still pursuing a lawsuit against the Saudis for their role in this attack. Trump made similar gains in Qatar. As an ally, they continue to  host our troops at the Al Udeid Air base; but, as an enemy, they also host the leaders of Hamas. The United Arab Emirates has a more positive history, in that it signed the Abraham Accords, which Trump has continued to try to convince these other leaders to sign. You will hear about the risks and benefits at each of the stops on his itinerary. The Prophet Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” So, can we trust these countries? Is Qatar's gift of a flying palace for Air Force 1 a Trojan horse and a risk to Trump's life? I hope not. These are risky times, but Trump is nonetheless working hard to fulfill his promises to bring about world peace. 

A long episode here! Today we are going to start by focusing in on Gaza, which is the most visible epicenter of violent imperial policy on the planet, and then expand into the Gulf States. Trump's recent trip to Riyadh and and the US effort to build the gulf into an AI bastion against china, get Saudi and Syria to Normalize with Israel in order to expand and complete the Abraham Accords, which it looks like it will happen, and the Iranian nuclear deal developments.

Why the FBI Remains Broken Despite Trump, Patel & Bongino In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down President Trump's visit to the Middle East and what it means for global power dynamics. From boxing in Iran and reversing Biden's foreign policy failures to blunting China's growing influence and reigniting the Abraham Accords, Trump is making it clear that America is back as the global leader on the world stage. Professor Giordano dives into the strategic, economic, and ideological implications of this trip, including the $1.4 trillion investment into U.S. companies and the lingering questions about Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11. Is this the beginning of a lasting peace, or just another geopolitical gamble? Episode Highlights: How Trump's Middle East visit isolates Iran as the Shia Crescent has been broken The $1.4 trillion investment in American companies and the rollback of Biden's AI export ban Why radical Islam, 9/11 truths, and national security threats still shape U.S.-Middle East relations  

In Episode 22 of The Narrative, Burning Bright welcomes Ghost for a sweeping breakdown of Trump's recent Middle East “Gulf Tour”, a trip the hosts frame as both a declaration of victory and a signal of a new sovereign alliance. They compare Trump's visits to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE to his 2017 trip, unpacking how this time marks a pivot from covert alignment to overt declarations of friendship, investment, and shared vision for a post-globalist world. The duo dives deep into Trump's powerful Riyadh speech, the symbolism of Middle Eastern ceremony, Qatar's geopolitical transformation, and how the Abraham Accords are setting the stage for a generational peace. Also featured are breakdowns of Syria's “jihadist in a suit” leadership, the inversion of mainstream narratives, a lithium-powered energy transition, and what Ghost sees as a strategic trap for Netanyahu and the neocon apparatus. This is narrative warfare on a global scale, told like only these two can.

Gaza will never become an independent nation, Israel Ambassador to the U.S. Yechiel Leiter says.   “There's not going to be an independent sovereign state other than Israel west of the Jordan River,” Leiter told The Daily Signal.   “There could be all sorts of autonomous arrangements,” he said, “but there's not going to be an independent sovereign Palestinian state west of the Jordan River. It's just not going to be.”   The nation of Israel extends from the Joran River west to the Mediterranean Sea to form the narrow country that is roughly the size of New Jersey. Since Hamas launched its attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, pro-Palestine protesters in America and round the world have chanted, “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” referring to Palestine fully occupying the land between the Joran River and the Mediteranea Sea, in turn eliminating the nation of Israel.   Following Oct. 7, there is a “complete absence of bandwidth” in Israel for the creation of a Palestinian state next to Israel. There is, however, a great deal of interest in Israel to expand partnerships with nations in the Middle East through the Abraham Accords, according to Leiter.   Learn more about your ad choices.

PRESIDENT TRUMP returned home from his Middle East trip with commitments for $2.5 trillion in foreign investment. Are the Abraham Accords proof that Trump is the Antichrist? The peace treaty hinted at in the prophecy of Daniel 9:27, as interpreted by many prophecy teachers, is so vague it could mean almost anything. President Trump's meeting with Ahmed al-Sharaa, the nominal president of Syria, was the first time a US president has met with a Syrian leader in 25 years, another example of how Trump is rearranging the chessboard of the Middle East. However, the “strong covenant with many,” rather than a peace agreement, could be the kind of trade deal Trump is working on with the Gulf oil states (and China, for that matter). That said, the Antichrist will be adored by so many people around the world that he will ultimately be worshipped as a god. President Trump is too divisive a figure for that. We recognize that the president is far from perfect. But at least he's giving American Christians a window of opportunity to preach and practice our faith without interference, something we didn't have with Presidents Biden or Obama.

ISRAEL: ABRAHAM ACCORDS IN TRAIN. ASHER FREDMAN, MALCOLM HOENLEIN @CONF_OF_PRES @MHOENLEIN1 1959 CHE IN GAZA

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:  First, America's space chief is sounding the alarm on Russian and Chinese advances in space-based warfare, including Beijing's “kill web” satellite network, Moscow's intention to put a nuclear weapon into orbit, and their joint project to build a permanent moon base by mid-2030. We'll have the details. Later in the show—in a surprising development, we are learning that Israel is engaged in secret talks with the new Islamist regime in Syria. The discussions are reportedly aimed at reducing tensions between the longtime adversaries, and at potentially having Damascus join the Abraham Accords, which would further erode Iran's strategic interests in the Middle East.

As President Trump tours the Middle East, the U.S. is striking massive economic and defense deals with regional powerhouses—Qatar and Saudi Arabia. A staggering $200 billion Boeing agreement with Qatar Airways and over $3 billion in military sales come despite Qatar's ongoing ties to Hamas. At the same time, Saudi Arabia is pledging up to $1 trillion in U.S. investments. Trump is also making waves by lifting sanctions on Syria and its new president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, who has alleged jihadist links. He's pushing for Syria to join the Abraham Accords and normalize relations with Israel—raising serious questions about U.S. priorities in the region. Meanwhile, in Israel, the situation is tense following the brutal murder of a pregnant mother in Samaria. The IDF is investigating a recent Gaza airstrike that may have eliminated top Hamas leaders—possibly shifting the balance in the ongoing conflict. Is the U.S. shifting alliances in the Middle East? And what does that mean for Israel? Purchase Jeremy's Masterclass: https://thelandofisrael.kartra.com/page/wakingupbyjeremy Register for the Israel Summit: https://events.theisraelguys.com/

Steve Bannon joins me on today's show to talk about all things foreign and domestic as the Trump administration celebrates another historic week. President Trump ended his trip to the middle east in the United Arab Emirates. The Burj Khalifa was adorned with red, white and blue lights as U.A.E.'s President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan gave President Trump the country's "highest civilian honor." Bannon unpacks the historic moves President Trump made in the middle east in a new vision for peace and a potential revisit of the Abraham Accords. As trade talks with China have progressed, Bannon reminds us of the list of abuses of agreements in the past by China and why it is important that the U.S. decouple itself from the Communist controlled country. Bannon correctly predicted the appointment of Pope Leo XIV and gives us insight as to what kind of Pope he will be. Here at home, Bannon and the war room are making their picks for the 2026 mid-terms and have targeted the un MAGA Senators he wants to see replaced. President Trump has time to decide who should be the new National Security Advisor and Rubio should wear the dual hats till the end of the year. Even though President Trump has sincerely expressed he is not running in 2028, he will be called upon by the nation to lead us once again, after his historic 2nd term comes to an end.

Iran Thinks They Can Outlast Trump. Can They?    President Donald Trump embarked on his first major foreign trip to the Middle East this week, making stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.    The goal? Replacing “strife” with “money,” bring Iran into the fold, and drop hostilities towards Israel. An ambitious agenda, maybe too ambitious, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “And the subtext of all of these meetings were: We're going to replace strife with money. We're all gonna be profitable. And we have to bring the cause of all of this trouble, Iran, into the fold of the Middle East and drop the hostility to Israel. Notice, of course, that he didn't go to Israel, although he was trying to elicit support for the continuation of the Abraham Accords with Saudi Arabia and Qatar.   “This is very ambitious but it's also very dangerous. Donald Trump thinks he can cut a deal with Iran so that they would do essentially three things: They would give up their nuclear program; they would stop the subsidies to the terrorist surrogates of the Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis; and they would liberalize their society and reenter the family of nations.   I don't think that Shia theocracy feels that is their agenda.”   

KT McFarland, former Trump Deputy National Security Advisor who served under four presidents (Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Trump) joined The Guy Benson Show today to react to President Trump's major address at the Middle East summit in Saudi Arabia. McFarland called it one of the most significant speeches of his presidency, highlighting Trump's pivot from a "peace through strength" model to a strategy of cutting regional deals, including efforts to make a nuclear deal with Iran and strengthen the Abraham Accords. She also praised his endorsement of a new generation of leaders in the region and his firm rejection of "forever wars." Listen to the full interview below! Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today’s episode. US President Donald Trump is still in the region and is visiting the United Arab Emirates today. After landmark deals in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, we discuss what may come out of the UAE trip — and the entire trip’s resonance for Israel, including Trump’s new relationship with Syria. We begin by discussing a half-hour meetup in Riyadh with Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa. Trump announced the US was lifting sanctions on the country the previous day and urged Syria to join the Abraham Accords normalizing relations with Israel. It was the first encounter between leaders of the countries in 25 years. We hear how Israel views this budding relationship. In Qatar, Trump signed an agreement with Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani that will “generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion,” the White House said. The announcement came as negotiations kicked off in Doha over a potential hostage-ceasefire deal with the Hamas terror group. Horovitz describes how Israel was not apart of the Trump visit, yet Israeli representatives are currently in the country in a renewed US push to negotiate an end to the war. To end the program, we speak about Israel’s approaching participation in tonight’s Eurovision semifinal. Horovitz describes the antipathy already experienced by Yuval Raphael, Israel’s 2025 contestant, who survived the Nova festival massacre on October 7, 2023.

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia pledged up to $1 trillion in U.S. investments. Trump also lifted sanctions on Syria and its new jihadist-linked president, Ahmed al-Sharaa. He also set conditions on Syria, including a request for them to join the Abraham Accords and normalize relations with Israel. In Israel, tensions remain high after a terrorist attack in Samaria killed a pregnant mother, Tze'ela Gez on Wednesday evening. The IDF is also investigating whether a precision airstrike in Gaza killed senior Hamas leaders Mohammed Sinwar, Abu Obaida, and Rafah Brigade commander Mohammed Shabana, potentially marking a major blow to Hamas's leadership.

Usama Dakdok is the founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam. Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country. He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia, which is Islamic law. He first came to America in 1992.President Donald Trump is in the Middle East working out numerous agreements. Some of the actions he's taken are concerning to a number of individuals. This includes the lifting of sanctions against Syria, the signing of a $142 billion dollar arms deal with Saudi Arabia, a $1.2 trillion dollar economic commitment with Qatar and the offered gift from Qatar to provide a jumbo jet to serve as Air Force One.Meanwhile, this morning the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on nationwide injunctions including the injunction on ending what is known as "birthright citizenship." It's a move that the Council on American Islamic Relations calls, "dangerous and unconstitutional." The issue of birthright citizenship and its implications for Islam in the U.S. is just the beginning as Usama also turned his attention to the Abraham Accords, the EU providing 11 million dollars to highlight the contributions of the Qur'an and Islam to European civilization, a Canadian Islamic scholar who praised children who die for Islam (Jim provided audio), the latest concerning the exclusive Islamic city taking shape near Dallas and special news for listeners in Pennsylvania and Florida.

Interview Transcript: Manya Brachear Pashman:  Live from AJC Global Forum 2025, welcome to People of the Pod. For audience members who are not in this room, you are listening to a show that was recorded in front of a live studio audience on April 29 at AJC Global Forum 2025 in New York. I'm your host, Manya Brachear Pashman. Thank you all for being here. In countries around the world, women are working more than ever before. But compared to men, they are not earning as much or being afforded an equal voice – at work, at home, or in the community. In no country in the world do women have an equal role. Let me repeat that. In no country in the world, do women have an equal role–when it comes to setting policy agendas, allocating resources, or leading companies.  With us today are three modern-day Miriams who have raised their voices and earned unprecedented roles that recognize the intellect and compassion they bring to international diplomacy. To my left is AJC Chief Impact and Operations Officer, Casey Kustin. Casey served as the staff director of the Middle East, North Africa, and Global Counterterrorism Subcommittee on the House Foreign Affairs Committee for 10 years. She has worked on political campaigns at the state and national level, including on Jewish outreach for Barack Obama's presidential campaign. Welcome, Casey.  To Casey's left is Dana Strohl. She is the Director of Research for the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. She was the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East. In this role, she led the development of U.S. Department of Defense policy and strategy for Bahrain, Egypt, Israel, Iran, Iraq–I'm not done–Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestinian Authority, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Prior to that, she also served on Capitol Hill as the senior professional staff member for the Middle East on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Welcome, Dana. And last but not least, Mira Resnick. Mira was the former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs and Arabian Peninsula Affairs, in which she handled two crucial Middle East portfolios, usually helmed by two separate people. Previously, she oversaw the Department's Office of regional security and arms transfers, where she managed foreign arms sales and shepherded the Biden administration's military assistance to Ukraine and Israel after Russia's invasion and after the October 7 Hamas attacks. Like Casey, Mira has also served as a senior professional staff member with the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, focusing on the Middle East and North Africa. Thank you for being here, Mira.  Welcome to all of you, to People of the Pod.  I think it's safe to say, this panel right here, and all the knowledge and experience it represents could solve the Middle East conflict in one day, if given the chance. Casey, you served for a decade as staff director for the Middle East, North Africa and Global Counterterrorism Subcommittee. A decade, wow. You witnessed a lot of transition, but what were the constants when it came to regional cooperation and security needs?  Casey Kustin: What's the saying? The enemy of my enemy is my friend. And that's the world that we're all trying to build. So, you know, from an American perspective, which we all came from in our government work, it was trying to find those shared interests, and trying to cultivate, where we could, points of common interest. And even with the challenges of October 7 now, perhaps stalling some of those areas of progress, you still see that the Abraham Accords haven't fallen apart. You saw when Iran launched missiles at Israel. You saw other countries in the region come to, maybe they wouldn't say Israel's defense. It was their airspace defense. But you saw that still working. You see that still working now. And it's every day when we come to work at AJC, we're thinking about how to increase and strengthen Israel's place in the world. Manya Brachear Pashman:  So Mira, your role encompassed both Israel and the Gulf for the first time, right? Mira Resnick:   That was the first time at my level. Yes.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   Okay, so whose idea was that, and did that put you or the US in a position to work for the good of the neighborhood, rather than just Israel, or just the Gulf States? Mira Resnick:   Yeah, this was an opportunity for the State Department to be able to see all of the different threads that were coming throughout the region. This is something that Dana did on a daily basis. This is something that our colleagues at the NSC did on a daily basis. The Secretary, of course, needs to be able to manage multiple threads at the same time. When I was overseeing arms sales, of course, I would have to consider Israel and the Gulf at the same time.  So this wasn't a new idea, that our interests can be aligned within one portfolio, but it was particularly important timing for the United States to be able to see and to talk to and to hear our Gulf partners and our Israeli partners at the same time within the same prism, to be able to truly understand what the trends were in the region at that particularly critical moment, post-October 7. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Dana, in your role as Assistant Deputy Secretary of Defense, you met with military leaders in the Middle East, around the world, and you were often the only woman at the table. What do women contribute to international conflict resolution that's missing when they're not given a seat at the table? Dana Strohl:   Well, let me start out by stating the obvious, which is that women make up 50% of the global population of the world. So if 50% of the world is missing from the negotiating table, from the peacemaking table, from conflict prevention mechanisms, then you're missing 50% of the critical voices. There's evidence, clear evidence, that when women are part of peace processes, when they are part of negotiations, the outcomes on the other side are 35% more sustainable. So we have evidence and data to back up the contention that women must be at the table if we are going to have sustainable outcomes.  When I think about the necessity, the imperative, of women being included, I think about the full range of conflict. So there's preventing it, managing it, and then transitioning to peace and political processes in a post-war or post-conflict situation. In every part of that, there's a critical role for women. As examples, I always think about, when you make policy, when you have a memo, when there's a statement that's really nice, in the big capital of some country, or in a fancy, beautiful palace somewhere in the Middle East or in Europe.  But peace only happens if it's implemented at a local level. Everyone in the world wants the same things. They want a better life for their kids. They want safety. They want access to basic services, school, health, clean water and some sort of future which requires jobs. Confidence you can turn the light on. You can drive your car on a road without potholes. Those are details that often are not included in the big sweeping statements of peace, usually between men, that require really significant compromises.  But peace gets implemented at a very local level. And at the local level, at the family level, at the community level, at the school level, it's women. So how those big things get implemented requires women to champion them, to advance them. And I will also just say, you know, generally we should aspire to prevent conflict from happening. There's data to suggest that in countries with higher levels of gender equality, they are less likely to descend into conflict in the first place.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   Can you recall a particularly consequential moment during your tenure, when you were at the table and it mattered? Dana Strohl:   So my view on this is that it was important for me to be at the table as a woman, just to make the point. That women can serve, just like men. Do the same job. And frankly, a lot of the times I felt like I was doing a better job. So what was really important to me, and I can also just say sitting up here with Mira and Casey, is that all of us have worked together now for more than a decade, at different stages of, getting married, thinking through having kids, getting pregnant, taking parental leave, and then transitioning back to work. And all of us have been able to manage our careers at the same time. That only happens in supportive communities, in ecosystems, and I don't just mean having a really supportive partner.  My friends up here know, I ask my mom for a lot of help. I do have a partner who really supported me, but it also means normalizing parenthood and being a woman, and having other obligations in the office space. I would make a point of talking about being a parent or talking about being a woman. To normalize that women can be there. And often there were women, really across the whole Middle East, there were always women in the room. They were just on the back wall, not at the table. And I could see them looking at me.  And so I thought it was really important to make the point that, one, a woman can be up here, but I don't have to be like the men at the table. I can actually talk about, well, I can't stay for an extra day because I have a kindergarten, you know, theater thing, and I have to run back and do that.  Or there were many times actually, I think Mira was Zooming for parent teacher conferences after we were having the official meeting. But I think it's important to actually say that, at the table, I'm going to leave now and go back to my hotel room because I'm making a parent teacher conference. Or, I have to be back by Friday because I'm taking a kid to a doctor's appointment.  So all the women that come after us can see that you can do both, and the men at the table can understand that women have a right to be here. Can do the jobs just as effectively and professionally as the men, and do this other absolutely critical thing. Manya Brachear Pashman:   But your point about, it requires a supportive network, a supportive work community. You told me a story before we got up here about just how supportive your colleagues were in the Department of Defense.  Dana Strohl:   I will give a shout out to Lloyd Austin, the Secretary of Defense. So one of the things you do in our positions is travel with the Secretary of State or the Secretary of Defense. And these are not the kind of things where they get on a plane and you land in whatever country. There's a tremendous amount of planning that goes into these. So on a particular trip, it was a four country trip, early in 2023. Secretary Austin was going to multiple countries. He had switched the day, not he, but his travel team, of his departure, which then caused us to switch the day of my son's birthday party. And then they switched the time of his departure from Andrews Air Force Base, and we could not change the birthday party.  So I called Secretary Austin's office and said, Listen, I want to be at my son's birthday party. So I've looked and it looks like I can take this commercial flight. So I won't be on the Secretary of Defense's plane, but I can largely land around the same time as you all and still do my job in the region. And to their credit, they said, okay, and then one of the things that you do in my position is you get on the airplane and you talk to the Secretary of Defense about the objectives and the goals and the meetings. So they said, Okay, we'll just change that to earlier. You can do it the day before we depart, so that he can hear from you. You're on the same page. You can make the birthday party. He can do the thing. So we were actually going to Jordan for the first stop. And it turns out, in his itinerary, the first thing we were doing when we landed in Jordan, was going to dinner with the King. And it was very unclear whether I was going to make it or not. And quite a high stakes negotiation.  But the bottom line is this, I finished the birthday party, had my mother come to the birthday party to help me clean up from the birthday party, changed my clothes, went to Dulles, got on the airplane, sort of took a nap, get off the airplane. And there is an entire delegation of people waiting for me as you exit the runway of the airplane, and they said, Well, you need to go to this bathroom right here and change your clothes.  I changed my clothes, put on my suit, ran a brush through my hair, get in a car, and they drove me to the King's palace, and I made the dinner with the king. It's an example of a team, and in particular Secretary Austin, who understood that for women to have the opportunities but also have other obligations, that there has to be an understanding and some flexibility, but we can do both, and it took understanding and accommodation from his team, but also a lot of people who are willing to work with me, to get me to the dinner. And I sat next to him, and it was a very, very good meal. Manya Brachear Pashman:   I find that so encouraging and empowering. Thank you so much. Casey, I want to turn to you. Mira and Dana worked under particular administrations. You worked with members of Congress from different parties. So how did the increasing polarization in politics affect your work, or did it? Casey Kustin:   It's funny, I was traveling last week for an AJC event, and I ended up at the same place with a member of Congress who was on my subcommittee, and I knew pretty well. And he looked at me and he said, the foreign affairs committee, as you know it, is no longer. And that was a really sad moment for me, because people always described our committee as the last bastion of bipartisanship. And the polarization that is seeping through every part of society is really impacting even the foreign policy space now. As you see our colleague, our Managing Director of [AJC] Europe, Simone Rodan[-Benzaquen], who many of you know, just wrote a piece this week talking about how, as Israel has become to the progressive, when Ukraine has become to the far right.  And I think about all the years I spent when Ted Deutch, our CEO, was the top Democrat on the Middle East subcommittee, and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), a great friend of AJC, was the chair of the subcommittee. And Ted and Ileana would travel around together. And when she was the chair, she always made a point of kind of joking like Ted's, my co chair, and we did so many pieces–with Mira's great support of legislation for the US, Israel relationship, for Syria, for Iran, that we worked on together, really together. Like at the table with my staff counterparts, trying to figure out, you know, what can your side swallow? What can your side swallow? And I hear from so many of our former colleagues that those conversations aren't really taking place anymore. And you know, the great thing about AJC is we are nonpartisan, and we try so hard to have both viewpoints at the table. But even that gets harder and harder. And Dana's story about the King of Jordan made me laugh, because I remember a very similar experience where I was on a congressional delegation and Chairwoman Ros-Lehtinen, and I was six months pregnant at the time, and I wanted to go on the trip, and the doctor said I could go on the trip. And we were seated around the table having the meeting.  And I, as you won't be able to hear on the podcast, but you in this room know, look very young, despite my age. And you're self conscious about that. And I remember Ileana just being so caring and supportive of me the entire trip. And I wasn't even her staffer, and I remember she announced to the King of Jordan that I was six months pregnant, and you could kind of see him go, okay. That's very like, thank you. That's very nice. But even just having that moment of having the chairwoman on the other side of the aisle. That whole trip. I think I've told some AJC people another funny story of on that same trip, we met with the Greek Orthodox Patriarch in Jerusalem, and she pulled me up to him, and she said to the patriarch, will you bless her unborn child? Knowing I'm Jewish, she leaned over and said to me: Can't hurt. So I hope that we return to a place like that on Capitol Hill. I think there are really good staffers like us who want that to happen, but it is just as hard a space now in foreign policy as you see in other parts of politics. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Mira, I want to ask you another policy related question. How did the Abraham Accords change the dynamics of your combined portfolio, and how could it shape the future? Mira Resnik:   My first, one of my first trips, certainly my first trip to the Middle East, when I was the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Regional Security, overseeing security assistance and security cooperation, was to Dubai, as the State Department representative for the Dubai Airshow. And it is a huge event that showcases the world's technology. And I remember walking into the huge hangar, that every country that has a defense industry was showcasing their most important, their most important munitions, their most important aircraft. And I remember seeing the enormous Israeli pavilion when I was there. And I was staying at a hotel, and I get to the breakfast and they said, Would you like the kosher breakfast or the non-kosher breakfast. And I'm like, Am I in Israel?  And I was blown away by the very warm relationship–in the security space, in the humanitarian space. I agree with Casey that things have gotten a little tougher since October 7, and since the aftermath in Gaza. But what I would also point out is that April and October, during the time when when we witnessed Israel under cover, when we witnessed Iran's missiles and projectiles going toward Israel and going toward other regional airspace, our diplomats, our militaries, our intelligence officials, all had earlier warning because of the work of other Gulf governments, even those who have not joined the Abraham Accords. And that is a prime example of where this security cooperation really matters. It saves lives. Manya Brachear Pashman:   So Casey, so much of what AJC does has to do with international diplomacy and maintaining that regional cooperation and security, and that sounds a lot like your previous role. So I'm really curious how much your job truly has changed since you came to AJC? Casey Kustin:   You're absolutely right. There are so many similarities in what we do at AJC and what we did in the government. And the core of that is really those relationships that you build with partners and interlocutors in other countries and other governments, and the foundation, over decades that AJC has laid. Particularly in the Middle East, thanks to 30 years of quiet travel to the region.  It struck me when I first came here, the access that AJC has is nearly the same that we had traveling as members of Congress. And the meetings and the quality and the level of meetings that AJC is afforded in these other countries.  Our missions, which many of you have been on, often feel like congressional delegation trips to me, and the conversations and the candor with which partners speak to AJC is almost the same that was afforded to members of Congress. And that has been comforting, in a way, as you said Manya, Because there feels like there's continuity in the work that we're doing, and it has made me realize that organizations, non-governmental organizations, advocacy organizations, play such a crucial role in supporting the work of a government, of your country's government. And in reinforcing the values and the interests that we as AJC want to communicate that very much dovetail, with hopefully any US administration.  I think that the role that an organization like ours, like AJC, can play in a particular moment, like we're in, where, as we've discussed, there's hyperpartisanship, and we hear a lot, Dana mentioned this. We hear a lot from foreign partners that the way our democracy works with a change in administration every four years is unsettling to some of them, because they don't know if a particular policy or agreement is going to continue the role that we can play, providing some of that continuity and providing a nonpartisan and thoughtful place to have conversations. Because they know that we have that kind of nuanced and thoughtful and nonpartisan insight. Manya Brachear Pashman:   I really appreciate your insights on the roles that you've played, and I think the audience has as well. But I want to pivot back to your role as women. Dana, I mentioned that you were often the only woman at the table. Would you discover that when you arrived at meetings and events? Dana Strohl:   In Washington, DC, and in particular, I'm very proud to have served in the Biden administration, where there were always women at the table. And I will also say that there was a network of women, and it was the same on the Hill. On the hill, there was actually a box of maternity clothes that was kept in then-Senate Leader Harry Reid's office.  And his National Security Advisor called me when she heard I was pregnant the first time, which was during the 2015 JCPOA negotiations on the Hill, which meant that I was super tired and doing all of those congressional hearings and briefings, but there was a network of women who were supporting each other and giving me clothes as I got bigger and bigger. And it continued into the Pentagon and the State Department, where there were always women and when we saw each other at the White House Situation Room or in the different meetings, there was always the quiet pull aside. How are you doing? How are your kids? Are you managing? What's the trade off on your day to day basis? Can I do anything to help you?  And in particular, after October 7, that network of people really kicked into high gear, and we were all checking in with each other. Because it was the most intense, most devastating time to work in the government and try to both support Israel and prevent World War III from breaking out across the Middle East. So that was DC. In the Middle East, I largely assumed that I was going to be the only woman at the table, and so I decided to just own it. There are some great pictures of me always in a pink jacket, but the point you know, was that I expected it, and there were always women, again, against the back walls. I made an effort whenever possible to make sure everyone at the table, regardless of your gender, had an opportunity to speak and participate, but I was also not just the only woman.  A lot of times, I was the co-chair with whatever partner it was in the Middle East, so I had a speaking role, and I felt was incumbent upon me to present a model of leadership and inclusivity in how we engage with our partners, spoke to our partners, listened to our partners concerns, and that that was part of the job. And only once, I remember it very clearly. We were at a dinner after a big meeting, and somebody looks at me, it's a meeting with all, y7all men, all men for a dinner. And they said, Is this what it's like for you all the time? And I said, Yes, it is. And you know, it took two and a half years for somebody to notice, so. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Mira, what have you experienced? And have you ever worried as a woman that you weren't being taken seriously? Mira Resnick:   I think that every woman in one of these jobs has imposter syndrome every so often, and walking into the room and owning it, fake it till you make it right. That's the solution. I will. I agree with Dana wholeheartedly that in Washington, I was really proud to walk into the room and never fear that I was the only woman. And I even remember traveling where another delegation was all women, and our delegation was all women, and how surprising that was, and then how disappointing, how surprising that was, but to take notice of the moment, because they don't happen very often.  I think that in Washington and throughout diplomacy, the goal is to pay it forward to other women. And I wasn't the last person to pump in the Ramallah Coca Cola factory, and I wasn't the first person to pump in the Ramallah Coca Cola factory. But that is, that was, like, my moment where I was like, Oh, this is a strange place to be a woman, right?  But I do find that women really bring holistic views into our policy making, and whether it's meeting with civil society, even if your job is strictly security cooperation to understand the human impacts of your security decisions, or making sure that you are nurturing your people, that you are a good leader of people.  I remember post-October 7, I was looking for some way that I could nurture in the personal life. And I see Nadine Binstock here, who goes to my shul, and Stephanie also. Stephanie Guiloff is also in the audience. She's my neighbor, and also goes to my shul. And after October 7, I took on the Kiddush Committee Coordinator at my shul. So that every week, no matter what I was experiencing at the office and no matter where I was in the world, our community would be a little bit more nurtured. And it was a way for me to like to give back to the community, and at the same time be able to continue to do the hard power work of security cooperation. Manya Brachear Pashman:   So Mira, Casey, Dana, thank you so much for joining us, sharing your modern-day Miriam experiences. I want to open it up for questions from the audience. Just raise your hand and someone will bring you a microphone. Audience Member: Hi, I'm Maddie Ingle. I'm a Leaders for Tomorrow alum. What is some advice that any of you have for young women like me in the advocacy space and in general. Casey Kustin:   First of all, thank you for taking the time to come to Global Forum and for joining LFT. You've already taken the first step to better arming yourself as an advocate. I think there is, I wish someone had said to me, probably before I met the two of them who did say it to me, that it was okay to take up space around the table. I remember sitting in secure facilities, getting classified briefings from ambassadors, male ambassadors who were 30 years my senior, and watching the two of you in particular i. Not be scared to challenge the back and forth when I as a probably still, you know, mid 20s, early 30s, did have fear of speaking up.  And I wish someone, when I was your age as a teenager, had, and obviously, I had supportive parents who told me I could do anything, but it's different. It's different than seeing it modeled by people who are in the same space as you, and who are maybe even just a couple years older than you. So I would just say to you not to ever be afraid to use your voice. This is a memory that has stuck with me for 15 years. I was in a meeting, sitting next to my congressman boss, with two men who were probably in their 60s, and a vote was called. And you never know on the Hill when a vote is going to be called. So it interrupts a meeting. And he had to go vote, and he said, Casey will finish the meeting with you. And they looked at him and said, Does she know what we're talking about?  Dana Strohl: We have all been there, Casey. Casey Kustin: We have all been there. So even if you're met with a response like that when you try to use your voice, don't let it deter you. Audience Member: Hi, guys. I'm Jenny. This has been my favorite session of the three days. Thank you guys. My mom is the first female, woman brakeman conductor on Amtrak. So you guys are just so empowering. As a long time Democrat, you guys talked about bipartisan issues. With how the Democratic Party is. I know you guys probably can't go fully into this. Do you have any inspiring words to give us hope when it feels very scary right now, as a Democrat, how divided our party is. Casey Kustin: I work for a nonpartisan organization now, so I'll let them handle that one. Dana Strohl:   I, so were we all on the Hill during the first Trump administration? And there was still bipartisanship. And what I'm looking for right now is the green shoots of our democracy. And I see them. There is thinking through what does it mean to be in this country, to be an American, to live in a democracy? What does democracy do? I think, first of all, it is healthy and okay for Americans to go through times of challenge and questioning. Is this working for us? And you know, the relationship between the government, whether it's legislative, judicial, executive and the people, and it's okay to challenge and question, and I think it's okay for there to be healthy debates inside both the Republican and the Democratic Party about what what this stands for, and what is in the best interest of our country.  And you can see both in polling data and in certain areas where there actually are members of Congress coming together on certain issues, like economic policy, what's in the best interest of our constituents and voters. That there is thinking through what is the right balance between the different branches of our government.  I was talking to somebody the other day who was reminding me this actual, you know, we are, we are in a time of significant transition and debate in our society about the future of our country and the future role of the government and the relationship. But it's not the first time, and it won't be the last. And I found to be that part of my job was to make sure I understood the diversity of voices and views about what the role of the government should be, general views about American foreign policy, which was our job, was just such a humble reminder of democracy and the importance of this back and forth. Audience Member:  [My name is Allie.] My question for you is, what are your hopes and dreams for generation alpha, who will be able to vote in the next election?  Casey Kustin:   I think we all have, all our kids are still in elementary, or Mira, your one is going into middle school now– Mira Resnik: To middle school. Casey Kustin:   So the vast majority of our children are still elementary school age. And for me, I have a very interesting experience of moving my family out of a very diverse community in Washington, DC to Jacksonville, Florida. And it's a very different environment than I thought that my children were going to grow up in, because at the time, we didn't anticipate leaving DC anytime soon, and it's made me realize that I want them to live in a world where no matter what community They are growing up in, they are experiencing a world that gives them different perspectives on life, and I think it's very easy now that I have gone from a city environment to suburbia to live in a bubble, and I just, I hope that every child in this next generation doesn't have to wait until they're adults to learn these kinds of really important lessons. Dana Strohl:   I have two additional things to add. I'm very concerned at what the polling suggests, the apathy of young people toward voting, the power of voting, why it matters. And participation, that you need to be an active citizen in your governments. And you can't just vote every four years in the presidential election, there's actually a ton of voting, including, like the county boards of education, you got to vote all the way up and down you continuously. And that it's okay to have respectful debate, discourse, disagreements in a democracy. So I would like this generation to learn how to have respectful discourse and debate, to believe that their votes matter and just vote. And three, on the YouTube thing, which is terrifying to me, so I'm hoping the educators help me with this is, how to teach our kids to separate the disinformation, the misinformation, and the fiction that they are getting because of YouTube and online. So mine are all elementary schoolers, and I have lost positive control of the information they absorb.  And now I'm trying to teach them well, you know, that's not real. And do I cut off certain things? How do I engage them? How do I use books and when? So they need to not just be active participants in their society, all up and down the ballot, multiple times every year, but they need to know how to inform themselves. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And Mira? Mira Resnick:   I do hope that our children, as they approach voting age, that they see the value in cooperation with each other, that they see the value of face to face conversation. I think that honestly, this is the value of Shabbat in my household. That you take a break from the screens and you have a face to face conversation. My children understand how to have conversations with adults now. Which is, I think, a critical life skill, and that they will use those life skills toward the betterment of their communities, and more broadly, our Jewish community, and more broadly than that, our global community. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Thank you so much. Thank you to everyone.

Usama Dakdok is the founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam. Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country. He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia, which is Islamic law. He first came to America in 1992.President Donald Trump is in the Middle East working out numerous agreements. Some of the actions he's taken are concerning to a number of individuals. This includes the lifting of sanctions against Syria, the signing of a $142 billion dollar arms deal with Saudi Arabia, a $1.2 trillion dollar economic commitment with Qatar and the offered gift from Qatar to provide a jumbo jet to serve as Air Force One.Meanwhile, this morning the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on nationwide injunctions including the injunction on ending what is known as "birthright citizenship." It's a move that the Council on American Islamic Relations calls, "dangerous and unconstitutional." The issue of birthright citizenship and its implications for Islam in the U.S. is just the beginning as Usama also turned his attention to the Abraham Accords, the EU providing 11 million dollars to highlight the contributions of the Qur'an and Islam to European civilization, a Canadian Islamic scholar who praised children who die for Islam (Jim provided audio), the latest concerning the exclusive Islamic city taking shape near Dallas and special news for listeners in Pennsylvania and Florida.

“This week, the global stage is on fire—and at the center of it is Donald Trump.   After wrapping up high-stakes stops in Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Qatar, Trump now heads to Istanbul, and this isn't just another handshake tour.   In Saudi Arabia, he sealed $600 billion in AI and energy investments—with U.S. tech giants backing the kingdom's ambitions to lead in artificial intelligence. In Qatar, he witnessed the largest aircraft deal in Boeing's history. And in Syria—shockingly—he lifted all U.S. sanctions and met with the new president, pushing Syria to join the Abraham Accords.   But now: Istanbul.   On paper, Trump is attending a reception at Trump Towers Istanbul. But in the backdrop? Vladimir Putin's sudden call for Ukraine peace talks.   So is this a genuine push for peace—or a global power play?   Turkey, as a NATO member that's kept close ties with both the West and Russia, is the perfect stage for a strategic pivot. Trump showing up in Istanbul right now, at a site that bears his name, may signal he's ready to step in as a deal-maker—or a kingmaker—in the Ukraine conflict.   Is he positioning himself as the only one who can broker peace between Ukraine and Russia? Or is this about optics, leverage, and legacy?   We'll be unpacking all this and more in this episode—don't miss it.”     Quantum Nurse https://graceasagra.com/  http://graceasagra.bio.link/presents Freedom International Livestream Thursday May 15, 2025 @ 9:00 AM EST Featured Guest: Joaquin Flores Topic: “Peace or Power Play?

Michigan Republican Rep. Bill Huizenga on Tuesday confirmed that he is interested in potentially running for the U.S. Senate in 2026. "I am," Huizenga answered when asked if he was considering running for the Senate on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "You know, this was not necessarily on my radar screen when I started this." Huizenga represents Michigan's Fourth Congressional District and has been serving in office since 2011. He said that he is considering a Senate run because President Donald Trump needs allies in the upper chamber. Huizenga said he believes that in the midterm elections, Republicans could keep the House and the Senate if they do the work of getting the budget reconciliation process in place and get the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reinstated. Later, Claire Lopez, a former CIA operations officer and founder of Lopez Liberty LLC, discusses President Trump's upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. Claire shares insights into the implications of this trip on international relations, particularly regarding the Abraham Accords and the potential for new peace deals in the Middle East. Finally, it's AMAC Wednesday, and AMAC spokesman and Maine Gubernatorial candidate Bobby Charles provides his unique insights on the issues of the day.

In a dynamic episode, @intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove dive into Trump's strategic moves reshaping the world stage with an America-First focus. They spotlight his May 13, 2025, Middle East trip—starting in Saudi Arabia with stops in Qatar and the UAE—where he secured a $600 billion investment pledge for the U.S., potentially scaling to $1 trillion, alongside a $3.5 billion arms deal for Saudi fighter jets, while lifting sanctions on Syria and pushing for Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords. The show highlights Trump's tariff truces, from the 90-day pause with China that boosts U.S. tech stocks and tackles fentanyl precursors, to the UK's America First Trade Pact slashing agricultural tariffs by 15%, proving Trump's economic leverage delivers for American workers. They also celebrate Trump's diplomatic wins, securing ceasefires with the Houthis, India, and Pakistan, showcasing his peace-through-strength approach that stabilizes regions while prioritizing U.S. interests. From economic deals to global diplomacy, Trump's leadership counters China, pressures Iran, and puts America first on the world stage.

051425 Scott Adams Show, Trump $600B Trade with Saudi Arabia, Iran's Ultimatum, Abraham Accords, Qatar

In this high-impact episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ghost break down President Trump's historic speech in Saudi Arabia, where he called for Syria to join the Abraham Accords and announced the lifting of U.S.,  sanctions signaling a major shift toward sovereignty-based diplomacy. Trump's message? Peace through trade, not war. The hosts also cover Trump's executive order slashing drug prices, igniting backlash from establishment figures like Thom Tillis. RFK Jr. passionately defends the move, exposing how Americans have long subsidized Big Pharma's global profits. Meanwhile, AOC melts down over the potential arrest of lawmakers involved in blocking ICE operations, drawing sharp comparisons to her silence on J6 prisoners. The team calls out the double standards in oversight, justice, and media coverage. From failing air traffic control to cartel-linked assassinations in Mexico, plus a federal judge indicted for helping an illegal immigrant escape, this episode is packed with narrative-crushing analysis. Trump's foreign and domestic moves are unraveling the regime, and the meltdown is real.

In this high-impact episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold breaks down President Trump's game-changing speech in Saudi Arabia, calling it one of the most significant geopolitical addresses of his second term. Jon walks listeners through the key takeaways: a $600 billion Saudi investment in the U.S., the lifting of sanctions on Syria, and the bold framing of Iran as both threat and potential partner. He emphasizes the absence of Israel in Trump's Middle East realignment, an intentional and telling omission as Trump praises the region's transformation without Western intervention. Jon also explores Trump's rhetorical pivot away from regime-change policies and his declaration that “nation builders wrecked more nations than they built.” Clips from the speech highlight Trump's call for regional self-governance, an end to permanent enemies, and a “golden age” for both America and the Middle East. Herold connects these themes to long-standing Badlands narratives, including the sovereign alliance, devolution, and the Abraham Accords, hinting that Saudi Arabia may soon join. Beyond the Middle East, Jon dives into domestic policy, including Trump's executive order slashing drug prices, backlash from Thom Tillis and Big Pharma allies, and new subpoenas targeting California's alleged misuse of federal funds for illegal immigrants. He also unpacks Trump's evolving role in crypto, criticisms of his Qatari jet gift, and explosive revelations from Jake Tapper's new book exposing Biden's declining health and internal campaign chaos. With sharp analysis, media callouts, and plenty of sarcastic jabs, Jon weaves together narrative warfare, foreign policy shifts, and political theater in what may be Trump's clearest roadmap to peace, and power, yet.

In this special State Department press briefing, Principal Deputy Spokesperson Tommy Piggott addresses a flurry of major global developments as President Trump continues his high-stakes tour through the Middle East. Piggott celebrates the release of American hostage Idan Alexander from Hamas custody, a $600 billion investment commitment from Saudi Arabia, and the easing of tensions between India and Pakistan, all under the banner of American strength and diplomacy. The briefing highlights Trump's evolving foreign policy doctrine, including his decision to lift sanctions on Syria, a move aimed at fostering regional stability and economic growth. Secretary Rubio is confirmed to attend key diplomatic meetings in Turkey, including talks with Russia, Ukraine, and Syria, offering hope for multiple ceasefires and peace-building across war-torn regions. Questions from the press zero in on controversial topics such as Israeli actions in Gaza, the future of humanitarian aid delivery, and backchannel negotiations with Hamas. Piggott deflects on operational specifics but reiterates the administration's firm stance: peace through strength, aid without empowering terror, and diplomacy driven by tangible results. The briefing also touches on broader foreign policy shifts, criticism of legacy human rights frameworks, the Abraham Accords' evolving role, nuclear threats from Iran and North Korea, and ongoing coordination with nations like Brazil, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Across every topic, the Trump administration's messaging remains clear: America first, results-driven diplomacy, and a bold redefinition of traditional U.S. engagement around the world.

In this historic address from Riyadh, President Donald J. Trump returns to Saudi Arabia to celebrate a new era of U.S.-Middle East relations. Marking exactly eight years since his first state visit, Trump delivers a sweeping speech filled with economic victories, military strength, foreign policy pivots, and unprecedented peace overtures. He highlights dramatic shifts under his new administration, from record job creation and tariff revenues to the lowest border crossings in U.S. history and record military enlistments. Trump praises Saudi Arabia's rapid transformation into a global hub for tech, culture, and commerce, crediting Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's bold leadership. He outlines a shared vision for regional peace, urging Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords and extending an olive branch to Iran, while warning of “maximum pressure” if nuclear ambitions persist. The speech also covers Trump's efforts to broker peace between Ukraine and Russia, end conflict in Gaza, rebuild ties with Syria and Lebanon, and sanction rogue regimes. He lauds recent military victories over ISIS and the Houthis and emphasizes his doctrine of peace through strength. The event concludes with the signing of major bilateral agreements between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, including partnerships on defense, energy, space exploration, healthcare, customs, and cultural exchange. This landmark day marks not only a diplomatic triumph, but also a defining message: the Middle East is transforming, and the United States is back at the helm.

In this lively episode of Israel Face to Face, ICEJ USA President Susan Michael sits down with best-selling author and Middle East expert Joel Rosenberg to explore his commitment to blessing Israel. Joel shares how his family came to faith in Jesus when he was a child, before he discovered his Jewish heritage. They discuss his career as a political thriller novelist, including books like The Last Jihad, and his founding of The Joshua Fund, All Israel News, and All Arab News. The conversation also dives into Joel's involvement with the Abraham Accords and the importance of equipping the church to understand and support Israel.

In this jam-packed episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Zak “RedPill78” Paine recap an explosive weekend of geopolitical maneuvers, domestic drama, and policy bombshells. Kicking off with Trump's massive executive order to slash prescription drug prices, the hosts break down how “most favored nation” pricing could collapse Big Pharma's profit model and reshape U.S. healthcare forever. But the chaos doesn't stop there, things heat up as they cover a Democrat-led insurrection at an ICE detention facility, complete with congressmembers pushing past federal officers and body-slamming staff. They compare the media's silence to the J6 hysteria, exposing blatant double standards and growing left-wing desperation. The duo dives into global updates, from Trump's peace push in Ukraine and a historic India-Pakistan ceasefire to renewed Iran nuclear talks and Saudi Arabia's potential civil nuclear deal. They explore the possible recognition of a Palestinian state and what that could mean for Netanyahu and the Abraham Accords. Add in Macron's suspected coke spoon, Zelensky's backwards pants, and a vanished witness in the Diddy trial, and you've got an episode that's part war room, part wild ride. From collapsing narratives to rising coalitions, this is the show that tracks the real-time shift of power from the global elite to the people, with just the right dose of humor and side-eye.

In a meticulously researched and impassioned episode of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost breaks down a seismic geopolitical pivot: Donald Trump is done waiting for Benjamin Netanyahu. Ghost walks through the unraveling of the U.S.-Israel relationship, using historical footage, expert analysis, and a barrage of sourced reports to argue that Trump is now embracing Saudi Arabia, brokering a nuclear deal without Israeli input, and potentially welcoming Iran into a new peace framework. From Trump's planned trip to the Middle East, with zero stops in Israel, to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth canceling his visit, Ghost connects the dots on a series of high-level moves that point to an intentional sidelining of Bibi and the neocon war machine. Huckabee, once a diehard Zionist, even breaks script to echo this shift. Ghost also delivers a hard-hitting exposé on the installation of known terrorist leader Abu Muhammad al-Julani as the Western-backed figurehead in Syria, Macron's shameless normalization efforts, and the broader strategy to Balkanize the Middle East under the guise of peace. As global leaders, including Putin, Xi, and various African revolutionaries, gather in Moscow for Victory Day, Ghost outlines how the sovereign alliance is realigning the global power structure. In one of the boldest predictions of the series yet, he forecasts a Trump-Putin meeting in Riyadh, Iran's unexpected entry into the Abraham Accords, and a coordinated rejection of Israel's Gaza occupation playbook. Candid, cutting, and unflinching, this episode is a masterclass in narrative deconstruction and global power analysis. Don't miss it.

In this high-energy press briefing-style livestream, the Trump administration lays out a sweeping agenda that reasserts American strength on the world stage and resets domestic policy priorities. The livestream opens with the announcement of President Trump's upcoming historic return to the Middle East, his first since launching the Abraham Accords, emphasizing peace through strength, economic collaboration, and cultural exchange. Simultaneously, a new $5 billion trade deal with the UK marks a triumph in agricultural exports and aircraft sales, while Secretary Scott Bessen heads to Switzerland for high-stakes trade talks with China. The White House also unveils a bold new self-deportation initiative incentivizing illegal immigrants to use the CBP Home app to return voluntarily, reducing enforcement costs by 70%. Meanwhile, First Lady Melania Trump secures $25 million in funding to support youth aging out of foster care, continuing her BE BEST legacy. In a flurry of press questions, Trump's meme coin raises ethical questions, Marco Rubio is confirmed to be heading national security negotiations, and Judge Janine Pirro is named interim U.S. Attorney for D.C., following Ed Martin's reassignment. Meanwhile, a proposed 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine garners mixed international responses, and a controversial U.S.-led aid distribution plan in Gaza sparks debate. The administration doesn't hold back on domestic shifts either, firing the Librarian of Congress over DEI and inappropriate content, proposing the renaming of the Persian Gulf, and celebrating bipartisan outrage as California walks back its decriminalization of child prostitution. From federal restructuring and bold foreign policy to crypto, censorship, and the collapse of the regime narrative, this isn't just a political update. It's a signal that the era of Clown World may finally be ending.

-Trump's upcoming Middle East trip may include a major announcement related to expanding the Abraham Accords and realigning the region economically and politically. -New Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit with Trump sparks comparisons to a protective father confronting his daughter's unworthy suitor, especially over trade and military dependence.

Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipAs the Israeli war machine is in full motion, the position of the West lays bare the hollowness of its claims to observe international law. With every US-manufactured bomb dropped on Gaza, the vacuousness of its liberal world order is exposed to Muslims and the world. Yet what can we do about this situation? Lately, many governments have queued up to sign the so-called Abraham Accords with the apartheid state, and it has been concluded that the Arabs no longer care for the Palestinian cause. Today, we get a real feel for the ‘Arab street' and what Palestine means to Muslims in the region. Our guest this episode is Dr. Tareq Al-Suwaidan.

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold recaps a jam-packed day of headlines and speculation centered around Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit to the White House. Trump steals the show with fiery commentary on U.S.-Canada trade relations, poking fun at Carney while floating the idea of Canada becoming the 51st state, complete with “free military” and lower taxes. Jon also highlights the power imbalance in global trade as Trump asserts America no longer needs to sign deals, it simply sets terms. Major foreign policy updates include Trump's announcement that the Houthis have agreed to cease attacks, prompting a pause in U.S. bombings, and a teaser for a “major” announcement from the Middle East, possibly hinting at new Abraham Accords signatories. Domestically, Trump signed an executive order halting all federal funding for gain-of-function research, citing public health and national security risks. Jon also critiques the politicization of gas prices, election rulings in North Carolina, and the resurfacing of the 2017 congressional baseball shooting. He covers economic threats from Japan over U.S. Treasuries, the media's racial framing of tariffs, and a bombshell lawsuit from Stephen Miller's AFL targeting Chief Justice Roberts. From foreign policy to financial maneuvering, Herold delivers a rapid-fire, no-nonsense rundown of the day's most pressing stories.

SCOTUS upholds trans ban in military as Pete Hegseth looks to rid the military of "wokeness". Discussion of recruitment numbers increasing, making the military more appealing for the young generation, and holding the military to a high standard.  President Trump says a big announcement is coming up with upcoming travels to the middle east. Could we see another Iranian nuclear deal? Abraham Accords 2.0 for peace in the middle east? 

In a packed Saturday night edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Chris Paul dive into a whirlwind of topics connecting culture, geopolitics, and narrative warfare. They start light with the NFL draft drama surrounding Shedeur Sanders, exposing how Trump's casual posts seemingly shattered a media-manufactured story in real time. Then they pivot into Trump's meeting with Zelensky at the Pope's funeral, dissecting its optics, body language, and what Trump's subtle rebuke of Putin really signals in the broader geopolitical chess match. From there, Jon and Chris explore NATO's desperate attempts to stay relevant in Ukraine, the accelerating collapse of the Crossfire Hurricane coverup, and how Israel's AI warfare tech reveals just how advanced military technology has become. They also cover nuclear energy diplomacy with Armenia and Iran, the Abraham Accords expansion, and how sovereignty battles are being framed through economic and military alliances. Wrapping up, they discuss the FBI arresting corrupt judges, Katie Hobbs' ties to human smuggling scandals, the Defense Policy Board purge, and how Trump's new executive orders targeting ActBlue and foreign interference connect back to EO 13848. It is a sprawling, energetic episode packed with insight, theory, humor, and serious truth bombs.
