To remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arest in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. Let me recommend a little book (Return of the Raider/The Amazing Story of Sergeant Jacob Deshazer), that I was tempted to cover in a full Prison Pulpit episode: https://jacobdeshazer.com/return-of-the-raider The Middle East continues to be in the spotlight this week. There is obviously much we do know to pray for, but I want to remind you that there is also so much we DO NOT KNOW. For instance, Iran’s regime-induced internet blackout keeps us from hearing much at all from the majority of Iranians who are cheering on the potential fall of the Islamic regime. Let’s not forget them. My guess is if communication were functioning normally, we’d be inundated with positive messages from within Iran. One report I saw estimated that in Iran it's more like 95% against the Ayatollahs and 5% for. But we really just don’t know. Finally, we come to our topic of the day, Chinese Christians in Exile and Serving Abroad… I have to be careful here. I simply cannot give up too much info about the folks I’m going to mention, so bear with me as I search for the right words… - Chinese missionaries are being sent to most of western China, almost all of Asia (sans India), and much of the Middle East, and they “fit in” much better than Westerners in many of these places - They are being trained in much the same way Western missionaries are trained to work cross-culturally, not in a matter of days, but years, in strategic places both inside and outside of China - Some of them struggle to leave China (passports confiscated), but others cannot return, as they will be arrested upon arrival with their passports confiscated for the foreseeable future - We have a major project later this year to help the missionary arm of the Chinese Underground Church Strategic Opportunity to Give: MCI3.org ($50,000 need!)

President Donald Trump is confronting adversaries abroad while battling political resistance at home. As U.S. forces escalate operations against Iran and negotiations swirl around Cuba, Trump is also pressuring Senate Republicans to pass the SAVE Act before endorsing John Cornyn in a heated primary challenge from Ken Paxton. The result: a high-stakes clash shaping both global strategy and domestic politics. Episode Summary The Trump administration is simultaneously navigating major geopolitical tensions and an escalating fight inside Washington. Abroad, U.S. and allied forces have intensified operations against Iran, reportedly striking thousands of targets and crippling major military infrastructure. Former commander David Petraeus says the U.S. has effectively achieved air supremacy, enabling expanded use of heavy bombers and carrier strike groups now moving into the region. The deployment includes the USS Gerald R. Ford and the USS George H. W. Bush. Strategically, analysts argue control of key global shipping routes—from the Strait of Hormuz to the Suez Canal—could reshape global power dynamics, particularly in relation to China's energy imports. Meanwhile, Trump also hinted at major changes in Cuba, joking that Secretary of State Marco Rubio could resolve the situation quickly as negotiations reportedly involve members of the Castro family. Back home, the biggest political fight may be inside Trump's own party. The president is withholding support from Senator John Cornyn unless Republicans move forward on the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. The move follows pressure from Ken Paxton, who is challenging Cornyn in the primary and urging Trump to leverage his endorsement to force action on election security. At the same time, a federal case involving Asif Merchant has raised new questions about alleged Iranian assassination plots targeting Trump and other U.S. officials—adding another layer to the escalating conflict between Washington and Tehran. With military operations expanding overseas and political battles intensifying at home, the coming weeks could prove pivotal for both U.S. foreign policy and the future of the Republican Party. Key Takeaways U.S. forces are escalating military operations against Iran with carrier groups and heavy bombers. Global shipping chokepoints like the Strait of Hormuz could become strategic leverage points. Negotiations regarding Cuba reportedly involve figures connected to the Castro family. Donald Trump is pressuring Senate Republicans to pass the SAVE Act. The Texas Senate primary between Ken Paxton and John Cornyn is becoming a key political battleground. A federal trial involving Asif Merchant raises new concerns about Iranian threats. Topic Tags: Trump Administration, Iran War, Cuba Politics, SAVE Act, GOP Infighting, Global Strategy
Leadership changes sparked by DHS Secretary Noem's departure and Oklahoma Senator Mullin's potential role have stirred new political drama but provided no path forward on the Department of Homeland Security's funding freeze. Add to that a Congress increasingly split over war‑powers resolutions and the path to any Middle East supplemental, and the next few months look anything but predictable.

"Ich bin nicht wie die Kriegstreiber." Das war die Haltung der US-amerikanischen Berlinerinnen und Berliner, als sie zu Beginn des Irakkriegs vor über 20 Jahren den Verein "American Voices Abroad Berlin" gegründeten. Eine von ihnen war Ann Wertheimer. Heute ist Ann Wertheimer Vorsitzende des Vereins und erhebt ihre Stimme gegen Trump-Amerika. Ihre Eltern waren vor den Nazis aus Deutschland in die USA geflohen. 1971 ging sie als Lehrerin für ein Austauschjahr nach Berlin und blieb – wegen der aufregenden Stadt und der Liebe zu ihrem späteren Ehemann. Katrin Heise spricht mit Ann Wertheimer über das wechselhafte deutsch-amerikanische Verhältnis – im Großen wie im Kleinen.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First up — Iran widens the war again, this time with drones striking neighboring Azerbaijan and injuring civilians. But instead of forcing regional governments to pressure Washington and Jerusalem into a ceasefire, Tehran's strategy may be backfiring — pushing more countries in the region further away and deepening Iran's isolation. Later in the show — the latest on the thousands of Americans stranded across the region as officials race to bring them home amid the expanding conflict.

Today's Headlines: State Rep. James Talarico won the Democratic Senate primary with 53% over Rep. Jasmine Crockett and will face either Sen. John Cornyn or Attorney General Ken Paxton, who are headed to a May 26 GOP runoff after neither cleared 50%. Rep. Dan Crenshaw was primaried from the right by state Rep. Steve Toth, while several incumbents were pushed into runoffs amid redistricting chaos, including Democrats Al Green and Christian Menefee facing each other and Republican Tony Gonzalez battling gun YouTuber Brandon Herrera. In other news, the Justice Department admitted it withheld 47,635 Jeffrey Epstein files after the Wall Street Journal flagged missing records. The House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi and is seeking testimony from Epstein associates including Bill Gates and Leon Black. A federal judge ruled the IRS illegally shared taxpayer data with ICE in roughly 42,695 cases. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, already under scrutiny over a questionable $143 million DHS contract and internal leadership turmoil, faced more heat on Capitol Hill. ProPublica reports the Trump administration is loosening intelligence-sharing restrictions, aka making it easier to spy on us, without notifying Congress. Abroad, Iran's leadership transition is intensifying, with Mojtaba Khamenei emerging as a likely successor. President Donald Trump says the U.S. is “actively considering” its role after the conflict, as the Senate narrowly rejected a measure to require congressional approval for continued strikes.

Today's Headlines: The first 2026 primaries are done. In North Carolina, Democrat Roy Cooper and Republican Michael Whatley advanced to face off for retiring Sen. Thom Tillis' seat. In Arkansas, Sen. Tom Cotton cruised to renomination, while Democrat Hallie Shoffner won with 77%. Texas was a little more dramatic. After historic turnout, a Dallas judge extended voting hours over polling confusion. Attorney General Ken Paxton — who's on the ballot — asked the Texas Supreme Court to block it, and the court agreed. Paxton now heads to a GOP runoff with Sen. John Cornyn after neither hit 50%. Abroad, the Iran war intensified after drones struck the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh. President Donald Trump said Iran's air defenses were “knocked out” and promised “big-scale” strikes. Sen. Richard Blumenthal warned of possible “boots on the ground.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested U.S. strikes were preemptive ahead of Israeli action — then tried to walk that back. Israel also hit a meeting of Iran's Council of Experts during its Supreme Leader selection. Stateside, reports say some commanders framed the war to troops as “God's divine plan.” FBI Director Kash Patel fired counterintelligence officials who had worked Trump-related cases, including Iran matters, and now faces whistleblower claims over handling of an ICE shooting investigation. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem endured a bruising hearing, with Sen. Tillis suggesting she resign. House Oversight is expanding its Epstein probe to include Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and former Goldman Sachs counsel Kathy Ruemmler. Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans to expand France's nuclear arsenal, and Melania Trump chaired a UN Security Council meeting during the U.S. presidency rotation.

Today's Headlines: The Middle East conflict has rapidly expanded to 12 countries in under 72 hours, with six U.S. troops killed after an Iranian strike hit an operations center in Kuwait. President Donald Trump signaled the fighting is far from over, saying Operation “EPIC FURY” could last four to five weeks and will continue “as long as necessary.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that “the hardest hits are yet to come,” while Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine cautioned the operation will be “difficult and gritty” and likely involve additional U.S. losses. The State Department is urging Americans to evacuate more than a dozen countries, and U.S. cities are on heightened alert, according to FBI Director Kash Patel. In a twist, the Pentagon reportedly used Anthropic's Claude AI model in the Iran strikes — despite the administration recently clashing with the company and canceling contracts. Abroad, U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Ukrainian drone experts will assist Gulf nations in intercepting Iranian drones, as Russia ramps up missile attacks on Ukraine. In Epstein news, federal prosecutors under Trump in 2019 reportedly took over New Mexico's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch. The state's attorney general has now reopened the probe, and the House Oversight Committee released video testimony from Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. Meanwhile, the Justice Department is also expected to drop appeals defending Trump-era executive orders that targeted major law firms. And finally, Rep. Nancy Mace is under House Ethics Committee investigation over nearly $9,500 in alleged excess reimbursements.

In this episode of Excess Returns, we welcome back Andy Constan of Damped Spring Advisors for a wide-ranging discussion on geopolitical risk, AI and productivity, capital flows, credit markets, fiscal policy, and the shift from US to international equities. Andy walks through the framework he uses to evaluate uncertainty, from wars and geopolitical shocks to the long-term implications of artificial intelligence, and explains why capital markets and funding conditions may matter more than bold narratives. We also explore growth, inflation, Fed policy, and the structural case for global diversification in today's macro environment.Main topics coveredA practical framework for analyzing geopolitical shocks, including red flags, green flags, and how to evaluate information quality during times of uncertaintyHow markets are pricing the current conflict with Iran across oil, equities, bonds, gold, and volatilityWhy historical market performance after wars may offer limited predictive value due to small sample sizesHow to think about AI from a macro perspective, including GDP growth versus GDP share and who ultimately captures the gainsThe capital markets implications of massive AI-related capex and whether equity and credit markets can fund current spending plansGrowth, inflation, and the Fed: how fiscal stimulus, wealth effects, QT, and labor market trends are shaping the current macro backdropWhy Andy has shifted away from US assets toward international markets, including the role of bond yields and global risk parityA critical look at the Trump accounts proposal and the broader issue of fiscal deficits and capital allocationThe key risks Andy is watching over the next three to six months, especially around credit markets and funding conditionsTimestamps00:00 Introduction and overview of discussion topics01:01 Framework for evaluating geopolitical shocks and information quality11:46 Market reaction to the Iran conflict and asset pricing implications23:00 Why historical war data may not be reliable for market forecasting27:03 How to analyze AI's impact on productivity and economic growth37:00 AI capex, credit markets, and funding risks42:24 Growth, inflation, and Fed policy in the current cycle49:20 The case for international equities over US markets56:20 Trump accounts, fiscal policy, and capital allocation01:02:23 What Andy is watching most closely in the months ahead
Last week, the political battle lines were crystal clear. At the State of the Union, Donald Trump issued a challenge: The first duty of government is to protect American citizens. If you agree, stand up. Many Democrats remained seated. Today's episode connects that moment to border policy, Iranian nationals released into the U.S., sanctuary city clashes, counterterrorism warnings, and escalating tensions with Iran. We examine the claims: 1,272 Iranian nationals released under Joe Biden 2 million “gotaways” 18,000 known or suspected terrorists identified by federal officials 6,000 reportedly issued Social Security numbers And we ask: If retaliation comes — who owns the consequences? Opening Tease (On-Air Hook) They were asked to choose: American safety or illegal immigration. They stayed seated. Now the stakes have gone global — and the threat could be domestic.
We talk what sabotage looks like at home and abroad. What has happened with the infiltration in our governments? Who are some of the names to watch for? And, what does sabotage look like abroad? We ask the questions.
Here's the truth: you absolutely can move to a country where English is not the first language — and yes, you can get a job abroad if you only speak English. The real question isn't if it's possible. It's where and how.In this episode, we break down:The European countries where English-only professionals have the best chances (Netherlands, Germany, Scandinavia, Ireland)Which industries are most open to English speakers (tech, multinational corporations, startups, finance, consulting)The role of remote work and how it changes everythingWhere the local language is still essential (France, Italy, Spain, parts of Central Europe)Tourism, hospitality, and teaching English as entry pointsPractical strategies to increase your odds of getting hiredYou'll also learn why English might be enough to start — but learning the local language can dramatically expand your long-term options.If you've been holding back because you're “not fluent enough,” this episode will help you think more strategically about your move.Because sometimes the language barrier isn't the biggest obstacle — your assumptions are.
Global Ed Leaders | International School Leadership Insights
What does it mean to lead a ‘British' school in an international context today? If your school promotes ‘global citizenship' but struggles to feel truly grounded in its local community, this conversation is essential. Shane is joined by headteacher and author Simon Probert, who argues that the future success of our sector depends on moving beyond a ‘rootless' global identity. He introduces the powerful concept of ‘rooted cosmopolitanism,' building a school identity that is deeply connected to its local place and culture while maintaining its global outlook. You'll learn why the term ‘global citizen' can be problematic and loaded with privilege, and how to intentionally localise your curriculum, traditions, and community practices. The episode provides practical strategies for fostering genuine belonging, implementing effective co-leadership models between international and local leaders, and designing inclusive staff cultures that bridge cultural divides.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to dissect the now tangible proof that Trump has lost touch with political reality. Beginning with a marathon State of the Union that was less a governing document than a 1-hour-and-47-minute exercise in self-mythology, aimed at his fan base, where reality was declared perfect even as polls told a different story. That disconnect between performance and public mood becomes sharper in Minneapolis, where a legitimate COVID-era fraud case that led to dozens of convictions was transformed by the ICE killings, tragedies so unpopular that it could cost Trump an easy political win. Now, JD Vance is dispatched to sell the punishment and absorb the blowback. Abroad, the stakes escalate: brinkmanship with Iran risks blowback Trump once vowed to avoid, while the grinding war in Ukraine—which he promised to end in a day—remains unresolved and increasingly perilous.

Headlines keep colliding: sudden airspace closures, a foreign leader urging new wars, and a deluge of Epstein revelations that raise more questions than answers. We cut through the noise to map the pattern—who benefits from distraction, why certain names stay hidden, and how selective secrecy corrodes the rule of law and our shared sense of justice. With Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, we examine the stakes of the Epstein files beyond the horror of child sex trafficking: alleged blackmail, influence peddling, insider trading, and a culture of impunity for elites. We contrast how local law enforcement handles similar crimes with how federal power seems to shield the well-connected, and we explore what that double standard does to public trust. On the domestic front, we look at job-market friction, surging applicant pools, and why rising gold and silver hint at dollar risk and policy uncertainty—economic signals that don't match the official happy talk. Abroad, we confront the moral and strategic costs of Gaza, U.S. complicity in escalating violence, and renewed talk of strikes on Iran. “Limited” actions rarely stay limited; supply routes, oil flows, and regional deterrence hang in the balance. We discuss the very real risk of miscalculation and what it would take to step back from the brink. Finally, we outline a path that could actually restore confidence: protect victims but fully name co-conspirators, fire officials who misled Congress, prosecute crimes without fear or favor, and prioritize diplomacy over performative force. If you're tired of euphemisms and ready for clarity, this conversation connects the dots and offers a concrete checklist for accountability at home and restraint abroad. Listen, share with someone who cares about justice, and leave a review telling us the one action you most want leaders to take now.

U.S. brokerage accounts for Americans in Israel often fail because of communication gaps, not bad investments. Living abroad introduces time zone mismatches, outdated contact details, and unfamiliar login activity that can trigger reviews at U.S. brokerage firms. When a firm cannot reach an account holder, systems are designed to slow things down and protect the account, which can lead to delays or restricted access even when nothing is actually wrong. This episode focuses on the overlooked administrative side of cross border investing for Americans living in Israel with U.S. brokerage and IRA accounts. It explains how U.S. firms interpret silence, why this issue shows up more frequently for people overseas, and how a trusted contact fits into compliance and account continuity. The emphasis is on understanding process, roles, and control so that normal life interruptions do not turn into unnecessary financial friction. Key takeaways: Why communication breakdowns are a leading cause of U.S. brokerage account restrictions abroad How U.S. brokerage firms respond when they cannot confirm intent from overseas clients What a trusted contact is designed to do and why it does not reduce account control How Americans in Israel can reduce delays by aligning account setup with real life abroad Explore more here: https://profile-financial.com/blog
