More than a million people are coming to America this summer for this year's World Cup soccer matches. It's “sports tourism.” At The DrillDown, however, host Peter Schweizer is more interested in stopping what he has called “birth tourism.” “The Trump administration announced actions against networks in Africa that were designed to provide birth tourism,” Schweizer says. “This is where foreign women, wives or girlfriends of people in these countries are sneaking into the United States to give birth so their child will be born a US citizen. We have exposed this as it relates to China, Russia, Turkey, and other countries. but this is a positive development – exciting news.”

- [Live] President Trump's Bilateral Meeting with the Prime Minister of Republic of India, Modi - [Replay] President Trump's Bilateral Meeting with the Arab Republic of Egypt - [Live] President Macron speaks at the end of the G7 summit in France - [Live] President Trump's G7 Press Conference President Trump opens with a warm meeting alongside Indian Prime Minister Modi before delivering the most detailed press conference yet on the Iran agreement from the G7 summit in France. He reaffirms that Iran will never produce, procure, or buy a nuclear weapon, explains the buried enriched uranium situation under Space Force surveillance, and repeats the now familiar contrast with Obama's JCPOA and its infamous cash filled Boeing aircraft. Trump details the economic fallout of the conflict, including oil prices plummeting and the stock market notching new records, then covers Ukraine peace efforts, the Ebola response in Africa, AI energy infrastructure, and a series of new G7 declarations on immigration and drug trafficking. He closes by floating the idea of sending JD Vance to the Friday signing ceremony instead of attending himself, reasoning that credit and blame can be assigned more conveniently from a distance.

Ibrahim Akasha was the kingpin of East Africa's heroin highway, setting up a massive tracking empire that stretched from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran to Kenya, South Africa and Europe. When he was gunned down in 2000, his sons stepped into the void, hungrier and even more violent...but also, more sloppy. They struck deals with Pakistani mobsters and Colombian cartels, turning Kenya's ports into gateways for global dope. But their empire crumbled in a DEA sting straight out of a Hollywood script. *Note: Sean disappeared while on vacation in Amsterdam, Danny had to be hospitalized post Knicks win, so we took a week off for the first time in a year.

Most entrepreneurs have never seriously considered the cooperative business model, even though some of the most recognizable brands in the world are co-ops. In this episode, Brian Thompson sits down with D.G. Safeer Hopton, entrepreneur, healer, and author of Creating a Co-op Village, to explore cooperative economics and what it could mean for mission-driven business owners. Safeer has spent decades building co-ops, studying cooperative economics, and helping communities create prosperity through shared ownership. This conversation is a practical and eye-opening introduction to a business structure built on people before profit.   In this episode you will learn: What cooperative economics actually means and how it works in practice How co-op business models differ from LLCs, S-Corps, and nonprofits Why credit unions, IKEA, Sunkist, and Carpet One are all co-ops How patronage refunds work and why they are the fairest profit-sharing system Safeer has found What questions every entrepreneur should ask before choosing a business structure How co-op business models create community prosperity by keeping money circulating locally The history of co-ops from pre-colonial Africa to present day How to get started with a co-op through organizations like the National Cooperative Bank and the National Cooperative Business Association Cooperative economics offers a genuine alternative to the competition and extraction model that drives most traditional businesses. Co-op business models are democratically controlled, neutral in race, religion, politics, and gender, and designed to return profits back to the people who generate them. Whether you are an entrepreneur exploring new business structures, a mission-driven business owner looking for more community aligned ways to operate, or simply curious about how cooperative economics could create more prosperity in your community, this episode is a valuable and thought-provoking listen.   Resources + Links Connect with D.G.

Homosexuality is illegal in more than half of African countries — a crime punishable by prison sentences. Or in some cases: death. In the past few years, six African countries have made it illegal just to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights. These laws bring up questions of foreign influence, neo-colonialism, and the role the international community could play in nudging human rights on the continent. *This episode originally aired on May 26, 2025.Want another podcast? Ghana and Uganda have some of the harshest laws against LGBTQ+ people in the world. Despite the threats, listen to how podcasters in both these countries are fighting back and reclaiming sexuality.

Lost luggage. Missed flights. A 24-hour delay. In that moment, it felt like everything was falling apart. But God was doing something they couldn't see yet. On the ground in Kenya, they watched people encounter Jesus. Step into water for baptism. Find freedom in circumstances far harder than a delayed flight.This is not a highlight reel. These are real stories from the mission field. And they will challenge the way you think about your faith, your comfort, and what it means to follow Jesus beyond your own zip code.

Some of the best conversations start at a dinner table.Last September, host Langston Clark welcomed product leaders and authors Oji and Ezinne Udezue into his San Antonio home for an intimate gathering. One of the guests that evening was Elisa Cuellar — a listener, entrepreneur, and founder of StorieCue — who walked away from that dinner inspired to stop sitting on her own big idea. That night lit a spark. This episode is the recorded continuation of that conversation.Oji, a former Chief Product Officer at Twitter, Calendly, and Atlassian, and managing partner of the Kernel Fund, and Ezinne, who has driven enterprise transformation at T-Mobile, Discovery Communications, Procore, and WP Engine, are the co-authors of Building Rocketships: Product Management for High Growth Companies. Together, they walk us through what separates builders who scale from those who stall — and why the fundamentals of product thinking matter now more than ever. With Elisa serving as guest co-host, the trio explores customer listening, the Shipyard Model of innovation, AI's role in product development, and what it means to build rocket ships when the infrastructure — and the capital — looks completely different than Silicon Valley. Whether you're a solo founder, a product leader, or someone who knows they have a rocket ship inside of them and just hasn't launched yet — this episode is for you. Topics covered: product management, startup growth strategy, AI tools for founders, customer listening, Shipyard Model, Kernel Fund, innovation in Africa, venture capital in emerging markets, product-market fit, Black tech leadership, entrepreneurship.Support the showhttps://www.patreon.com/c/EA_BookClub

Episode #554: Bruce Stewart, an early Western student and teacher in the S.N. Goenka Vipassana tradition, reflects on a lifelong search for spiritual meaning driven by curiosity, wonder, and a desire to understand life more deeply. The sudden death of his younger sister prompted early questions about life's meaning, while stories from traveling hippies kindled a desire to explore the wider world. Leaving New Zealand, Stewart worked his passage to Europe on a cargo ship and spent several adventurous years traveling through Europe and Africa and immersing himself in the hippie counterculture. Eventually Stewart found his way to a Sivananda ashram in Canada, where his spiritual interests were given structure. There he met his future wife, Maureen. Together they returned to New Zealand and founded one of the country's first yoga centers, creating a vibrant community centered on yoga, vegetarianism, retreats, and alternative culture. Later, Stewart took a vipassana course with John Coleman, a student of U Ba Khin; the experience was life-changing. Soon after, he and Maureen dissolved their yoga center and traveled to India to became involved with the fledgling Vipassana center at Dhamma Giri in Igatpuri, where they worked closely with S.N. Goenka. As the movement expanded, Stewart and Maureen were heavily involved in helping the tradition take root in the U.S. Yet over time, he became increasingly uneasy with organizational culture, leadership styles, and narratives of purity and authority. Historical study and deeper inquiry eventually led him to question long-held assumptions, and eventually his decision to broaden his practice and step down from his Senior Teacher responsibilities. Still, he remains grateful for the practice and its benefits, viewing his spiritual life as a series of valuable stages that collectively formed a rich, demanding, and deeply meaningful journey.

Access to clean water is still out of reach for a staggering number of people—and it's not just a distant problem. According to estimates from WHO and UNICEF, over 2 billion people still don't have safely managed drinking water at home, a reality that impacts everything from health to education and economic opportunity. As pressure from climate change and population growth builds, there's increasing recognition that lasting solutions need to be built from the ground up, with communities at the center.Within that shift, purpose-driven initiatives are emerging that connect individual action with systemic change—focused on creating impact that lasts well beyond the moment.So what happens when a single individual attempts to run more than 15,000 kilometers across a continent—not for sport, but to catalyze transformation? Can a physical journey spark a scalable model for lifting communities out of poverty?Welcome to I Don't Care. In a conversation centered on purpose and impact, Dr. Kevin Stevenson is joined by Veronique Bourbeau, founder and CEO of Run4Humanity, to unpack a continent-spanning effort to transform communities through water, education, and endurance. The conversation spans far beyond endurance athletics, diving into the mechanics of sustainable development, behavioral change, and what it truly means to empower communities from within.Key takeaways from the episode…It's not about the run—it's about systems change: The journey is a vehicle to deliver water access, agricultural support, sanitation, and education through locally driven programs.Community-first implementation is critical: Every initiative is co-created with local leaders and tailored to the unique needs of each region, ensuring long-term sustainability.Behavioral transformation is the missing link: Beyond infrastructure, Run4Humanity emphasizes financial literacy, health, and mindset shifts to break the cycle of poverty.Veronique Bourbeau is an ultra-endurance athlete, author, and global humanitarian. A former journalist turned humanitarian leader, she combines expertise in international development, partnership-building, and community-led program design with elite ultra-endurance achievements, including a 3,010 km run across Japan and a record-setting 444 km race victory in Malaysia. Through Run4Humanity, she leverages large-scale endurance initiatives and global partnerships to advance water security, economic resilience, and long-term behavioral change.

Allan Savory is the Godfather of regenerative agriculture.  In the first part of this three-part series, filmmaker Tom Opre talks to Allan about what brought him to wildlife, wild places, and the wise use of natural resources.  They'll discuss his start, the cultural climate in Africa during the mid-19th century, during the demise of colonialism, and the trials and tribulations of trying to convince the world that we've been doing it wrong all this time.

Louise Young is responsible for the F1 calendar. The Australian lawyer and her team manage the motorsport series' relationships with promotor organisations around the world. They are responsible for bringing in new races onto the calendar; for negotiating contracts with existing race promotors; and for ensuring that host venues meet all the requirements - safety, racing, logistical, commercial, fan experience - that a modern, elite, global racing series has. F1 is having a moment. Propelled by the takeover of Liberty Media in 2017, and spurred by the success of media initiatives like Drive to Survive and the F1 movie, the series is riding the wave of success; growing its fanbase around the world as well as its portfolio of partners. The calendar, too, is in a good place. There are 24 races in the 2026 F1 season. Young and her team have 26 promotors under contract and a schedule that's locked in through 2028. As she explains on this episode of Leaders Worth Knowing, her challenge is a sophisticated one: making good on F1's mission to have a truly global spread of 'Super Bowls' on the calendar, and maintaining serious interest in race hosting around the world with little short-term hope of awarding rights. But new deals have been done of late. Creative negotiating has led to annually alternating race hosting in Belgium and Barcelona, allowing Portugal and Türkiye to come on to the calendar. Madrid is preparing to host its first F1 race later this summer. And rumours swirl around future races in Argentina and Africa. But what does it take to become an F1 race host today? Any way in to Louise Young is the first requirement.

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, attention turns to implementation after the US and Iran announced a peace agreement and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. World leaders have welcomed the breakthrough, while mediators prepare for a formal signing ceremony and the next phase of negotiations. We also look at the Israel's reaction to the agreement. In Iraq, Prime Minister Ali Al Zaidi cancels a $764 million Baghdad International Airport expansion project over corruption allegations, marking another step in his anti-graft campaign. The UAE launches a new Artificial Intelligence and Data Authority to oversee national AI strategy, government data management and digital transformation efforts as the country pushes towards delivering half of government services through agentic AI within two years. And Dubai Customs helps prevent 1.3 tonnes of Tapentadol tablets from reaching illegal markets in Africa, in an international operation involving Interpol and global law enforcement partners.

The saltwater crocodile really gets around. It's found throughout the Indian and western Pacific oceans. That makes it one of the most cosmopolitan reptiles on the planet. But it's not quite as widely spread as it once was. Crocodiles that once inhabited the Seychelles islands were members of the same family. But they were exterminated by early settlers. The saltwater croc is the largest reptile on Earth. Adult males can reach 20 feet or longer and weigh more than a ton. They're super-aggressive—they'll eat anything they can catch, and they can catch almost anything—including people. When people first settled on the islands, in 1770, they found plenty of crocs. Within half a century, though, the settlers had wiped them out. That made the islanders safer. But it left modern-day science with a question: Were the crocodiles members of the saltwater family, or were they a separate species? With no living examples, the question has been hard to answer. In a recent study, though, scientists were able to extract DNA from parts of crocodiles preserved in museums. They compared the samples to those of modern saltwater crocs. And the samples matched—the Seychelles monsters were relatives of the crocodiles found across the region. The Seychelles are a long way from any major land mass—about 900 miles from Africa, and 1700 miles from India. So the crocs had to travel a long way to reach them—expanding the range of this cosmopolitan reptile. The post Traveling Crocs appeared first on Marine Science Institute. The University of Texas at Austin..

In quanti Paesi del mondo si parla italiano? Se la risposta che ti viene in mente è "uno solo, l'Italia", preparati a una sorpresa. Potresti ordinare un cappuccino in italiano in Svizzera, in Croazia, addirittura in un piccolo angolo dell'Argentina o degli Stati Uniti. La nostra lingua viaggia molto più di quanto pensi e, quando va all'estero, lascia tracce sorprendenti nelle lingue locali. Paesi, Comunità e Curiosità L'italiano è una lingua molto più diffusa di quanto si immagini. Oltre a essere lingua ufficiale in diversi Paesi, è presente in tante comunità sparse per il mondo grazie alla storia e all'emigrazione. Scopriamo insieme dove si parla e che tracce ha lasciato. I Paesi dove l'Italiano è Lingua Ufficiale Partiamo dalle certezze. Oltre all'Italia, ci sono altri luoghi dove l'italiano è una lingua ufficiale, usata nella vita quotidiana e nei documenti amministrativi. La Svizzera La Svizzera ha quattro lingue nazionali: tedesco, francese, italiano e romancio. L'italiano è la lingua principale del Canton Ticino e di alcune valli del Canton Grigioni. A Lugano o a Bellinzona, cartelli, menu e conversazioni sono tutti in italiano, e persino le leggi e i documenti ufficiali della Confederazione vengono tradotti in italiano. L'italiano della Svizzera ha però tante parole "tutte sue", che in Italia non userebbe nessuno: si chiamano elvetismi. La macchina ha colorito questo italiano regionale in modo simpatico, come mostrano gli esempi qui sotto. ElvetismoSignificato in ItaliaNatelTelefono cellulareAzioneOfferta speciale, scontoSaccoZainoRiservarePrenotare (dal francese réserver) Se un ticinese ti dice "ti chiamo sul natel" o vedi al supermercato "questo prodotto è in azione", ora sai cosa significa. Sono proprio queste piccole differenze a rendere l'italiano svizzero unico. Per scoprire altre varietà dell'italiano standard e degli accenti, c'è una guida dedicata. San Marino San Marino è uno degli Stati più piccoli del mondo e si trova completamente dentro il territorio italiano: è quella che si chiama un'enclave. Qui l'italiano è la lingua ufficiale, quindi non avrai nessun problema di comunicazione. La Città del Vaticano Anche nella Città del Vaticano l'italiano è la lingua di uso quotidiano e amministrativo. La lingua ufficiale degli atti più solenni della Chiesa è il latino, ma nella vita di tutti i giorni si parla italiano. Anzi, l'italiano è diventato una specie di lingua franca del Vaticano: la lingua che persone di nazionalità diverse usano per capirsi tra loro. Slovenia e Croazia: la Regione dell'Istria L'italiano è lingua ufficiale anche fuori dall'Italia, in Slovenia e Croazia, precisamente nella regione dell'Istria. In Slovenia è co-ufficiale in alcuni comuni della costa, come Capodistria, Isola e Pirano; in Croazia è lingua ufficiale a livello della Regione Istriana, accanto al croato. Cosa significa co-ufficiale? Significa che una lingua convive con un'altra, alla pari. In Istria i cartelli stradali e i documenti pubblici sono scritti in due lingue, ed esiste anche una storica comunità italiana con scuole e giornali in italiano. Dove l'Italiano Non è Ufficiale, ma è di Casa Ci sono luoghi dove l'italiano non è una lingua ufficiale, eppure si sente eccome. Il motivo è uno solo: l'emigrazione. Tra la fine dell'Ottocento e il Novecento, milioni di italiani lasciarono il Paese in cerca di lavoro, portando con sé la valigia, i sogni e la lingua. L'Argentina e il Lunfardo Se c'è un Paese dove l'eredità italiana è fortissima, è l'Argentina: una grande parte della popolazione ha origini italiane. L'italiano ha influenzato persino il suono dello spagnolo locale: lo spagnolo di Buenos Aires ha un'intonazione molto "cantata", melodica, che ricorda il modo di parlare degli italiani. Nel dialetto locale di Buenos Aires, chiamato lunfardo, ci sono tantissime parole di origine italiana: Parola in lunfardoSignificatoOrigine italianaLaburarLavorareDa "lavorare"FiacaPigriziaDa "fiacca"MufaSfortuna, malumoreDa "muffa"MorfarMangiareDa espressioni gergali italiane In Argentina un orecchio attento riconoscerà sempre un pezzettino d'Italia in mezzo allo spagnolo. Il Brasile e il Talian Soprattutto nel sud del Brasile ci sono intere comunità di origine italiana. In alcune zone si parla addirittura il talian, una lingua nata dall'incontro tra il dialetto veneto degli emigranti e il portoghese. Per scoprire la ricchezza dei dialetti italiani, puoi consultare la guida dedicata. Il talian ha mantenuto la grammatica e il vocabolario del veneto: la sedia si dice ancora carega e la forchetta si dice piron, proprio come in Veneto. Ha però "preso in prestito" parole portoghesi per indicare le cose che gli emigranti non conoscevano: per dire "zoccolo", per esempio, si usa la parola portoghese tamanco. Oggi il talian è riconosciuto come patrimonio culturale del Brasile. C'è perfino un comune, chiamato Serafina Corrêa, dove il talian è lingua co-ufficiale insieme al portoghese. Le Curiosità Linguistiche più Sorprendenti L'italiano ha lasciato tracce in luoghi davvero lontani, dando vita a prestiti linguistici curiosi e a vere e proprie lingue ibride. Per altre curiosità sulla lingua italiana, c'è una guida dedicata. Stati Uniti, Canada e Australia In questi Paesi esistono grandi comunità italo-discendenti. Nelle grandi città americane ci sono ancora le famose "Little Italy", i quartieri italiani, dove l'italiano sopravvive nelle famiglie e nei ristoranti. Qui è nato un fenomeno linguistico curioso: una specie di italiano mescolato con l'inglese. Gli emigranti hanno italianizzato molte parole inglesi: Parola italianizzataOrigine ingleseItaliano correttoStoroStoreNegozioGiobbaJobLavoroBossoBossCapo Attenzione: non è italiano corretto e non va usato nei compiti. È però una testimonianza affascinante di come una lingua si adatta quando viaggia. Si tratta di un fenomeno simile a quello dei prestiti linguistici come anglicismi e francesismi presenti nell'italiano d'Italia. L'Eritrea e la Lingua Tigrina La curiosità più sorprendente porta l'italiano addirittura in Africa. In Eritrea, per ragioni storiche legate al passato coloniale, l'italiano ha lasciato un segno profondissimo. Tantissime parole italiane sono entrate nel tigrino, la lingua locale più parlata. Spesso si tratta di parole legate a oggetti, cibi e abbigliamento portati dagli italiani: Parola in tigrinoOrigine italianaMakinaMacchinaPastaPastaGonàGonna Un eritreo può quindi usare parole di origine italiana senza nemmeno saperlo. Dopo alcuni anni di interruzione, dal 2024 ad Asmara, la capitale, sono ripartiti i corsi di lingua e cultura italiana. Una Lingua Viva che Si Trasforma In tutti questi luoghi l'italiano non è rimasto "congelato": si è mescolato, ha cambiato forma, si è adattato. È proprio questo il bello delle lingue vive: viaggiano, incontrano altre lingue e si trasformano. Per capire meglio questi meccanismi, puoi leggere la guida sui misteri della lingua italiana. Tabella Riassuntiva: l'Italiano nel Mondo Ecco una tabella che riassume dove si parla italiano fuori dall'Italia e con quale status. Per approfondire le lingue ibride nate dall'italiano come il talian, c'è una guida dedicata.

Oltre all'Italia, l'italiano è lingua ufficiale in Svizzera, San Marino e Città del Vaticano. È inoltre lingua co-ufficiale in alcune zone della Slovenia e della Croazia, nella regione dell'Istria. Cosa Sono gli Elvetismi? Gli elvetismi sono parole o espressioni tipiche dell'italiano parlato in Svizzera, che in Italia non si usano. Alcuni esempi sono natel (telefono cellulare), azione (offerta speciale) e riservare (prenotare). Che Cos'è il Talian? Il talian è una lingua parlata nel sud del Brasile, nata dall'incontro tra il dialetto veneto degli emigranti italiani e il portoghese. Oggi è riconosciuto come patrimonio culturale del Brasile. Perché in Argentina Ci Sono Tante Parole Italiane? A causa della grande emigrazione italiana tra Ottocento e Novecento. Una larga parte della popolazione argentina ha origini italiane, e questo ha influenzato sia il suono dello spagnolo locale sia il vocabolario del lunfardo, il dialetto di Buenos Aires. L'Italiano Si Parla Anche in Africa? Sì. In Eritrea, per ragioni storiche legate al passato coloniale, l'italiano ha lasciato molte parole nella lingua tigrina. Dal 2024, inoltre, ad Asmara sono ripartiti i corsi di lingua e cultura italiana. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Quiz", "name": "Test sull'Italiano nel Mondo", "description": "Quiz interattivo sull'italiano nel mondo con 10 domande sui Paesi dove si parla italiano, gli elvetismi, il talian, il lunfardo e le curiosità linguistiche.", "educationalLevel": "Intermedio A2-B1", "learningResourceType": "Quiz", "inLanguage": "it", "hasPart": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "In quale di questi Stati l'italiano è una delle lingue ufficiali?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Svizzera" } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Come si chiamano le parole tipiche dell'italiano parlato in Svizzera che in Italia non si usano?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer",...

Ralph talks to journalist and M.Div. Chris Hedges about Pope Leo XIV's encyclical on artificial intelligence. Then, Ralph speaks with Rick Engler (former member of the US Chemical Safety and Hazards Investigation Board) about Trump's proposed closing of that agency. Finally, Ralph pays tribute to some recently departed friends.Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, who spent nearly two decades as a foreign correspondent in Central America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the host of The Chris Hedges Report, and he is a prolific author— his latest book is A Genocide Foretold: Reporting on Survival and Resistance in Occupied Palestine.I think that Pope Leo kind of missed the point of AI. In that he describes that it could be a positive force for Catholic education (these are his words), compassionate health care, creative platforms that tell the Christian story with truth and beauty. I think those were all indications to me that he didn't quite understand what AI is about. It's not about education, it's not about compassion, it's not about truth, and it's not about beauty. It is a very pernicious force that will go beyond, of course, replacing all sorts of labor, but creating a world where fact and fiction are blurred together.Chris HedgesI think that mass organization is kind of all we have left as we barrel towards an authoritarian state. Congress doesn't function, certainly doesn't function as Congress was designed to function. They have surrendered their traditional constitutional authority, including, of course, the call for Congress to declare war. And this kind of unitary executive branch—this was put into place, by the way, before Trump. He's just taken advantage of it…And I think that it's absolutely fundamental that we recapture that kind of militancy, that kind of organized workforce that has traditionally throughout our history been such an important corrective to democracy—along with, of course, journalism.Chris HedgesRick Engler is a former U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board member and labor advocate who founded the New Jersey Work Environment Council. He has advocated for successful landmark state and national public policies that ensure workers and the public's “right to know” about potential chemical dangers, and that promote safer processes, chemical incident prevention, and whistleblower protection.The CSB is unique. I mean, nobody would think of abolishing the National Transportation Safety Board. And no one should think about abolishing the Chemical Safety Board, which does the same thing. It's not about issuing, in this case, fines or violations. It's about trying to understand the underlying causes of what led to these incidents.Rick Engler[Trump's allies] have a certain religious fervor about this. When I talk to plant managers, the plant managers of the corporations are much more careful and nuanced in most cases. They don't want their own plants to explode. But somewhere at the higher corporate levels, I think they're just willing to take the risks that the tradeoff for them is: Trump is supporting them in so many ways, why interfere? Why become part of some nuanced opposition to the most extreme EPA attacks? But I do think the elimination of the CSB is driven by the Trump administration in a way that wouldn't be happening if it was just left to the chemical industry trade associations alone. I'm not sure that's an adequate answer. I'm actually kind of puzzled by it. Because it's also really clear that if there was any one major incident, it would cost so much money—not only in the human tragedy of the lives lost and neighbors harmed and evacuations and shelter-in-place and property damage, but these incidents destroy facilities.Rick EnglerNews 6/12/26* Our top stories this week come to us from California, where, after an excruciatingly protracted wait, authorities have finally called some of the most high-profile races. In Los Angeles, Democratic Socialist City Councilwoman Nithya Raman has secured the second slot in the mayoral race, beating out reactionary former reality television star Spencer Pratt, PBS reports. Pratt garnered significant attention from conservative media for his slick AI-generated ads and his false claims about living in an airstream trailer after his LA home burned down in the recent fires. In actuality, he was living in the posh Bel Air hotel, billed as a campaign expense, per TMZ. Now the question becomes whether or not Raman will be able to expand her coalition to unseat incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in November.* If Raman's victory is the good news however, the bad news is that Trump-endorsed Republican Steve Hilton will advance in the gubernatorial race. He will face off against former California Attorney General and Secretary of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra, who has accepted large campaign contributions from the California Association of Realtors, the California Medical Association and even Chevron, per CalMatters. This outcome means progressive billionaire Tom Steyer will not advance. Many are placing the blame for this on former Congresswoman Katie Porter, who remained in the race despite clearly failing to achieve any real viability throughout the race. This has drawn comparisons to Elizabeth Warren's perceived role as a spoiler candidate vis-a-vis Bernie Sanders in the 2020 Democratic Primary, particularly since Porter is a highly visible protégé of Senator Warren. In his concession speech, Steyer closed by telling his supporters “Pay attention. Know what you deserve, and know who is on your side. Understand who the villains are, and say their names out loud. Continue to demand more from your leaders and your government, until they give you the California – and the country – you know you deserve. I will be with you all the way.”* Elsewhere in California however, progressives scored major victories. In California's 22nd congressional district, Bernie Sanders-backed Randy Villegas secured a spot in the top two, beating out his opponent Jasmine Bains, who enjoyed the backing of AIPAC and 53 corporate donors, according to the American Prospect. He will face Republican incumbent Congressman David Valadao in November. Even more impressive is the victory of progressive challenger Mai Vang in California's 7th district primary, where she actually emerged as the top vote getter, beating out longtime incumbent Congresswoman Doris Matsui. However, because Matsui, who is 81 years old, won the second-most votes, she will still advance to the general election.* Another much-anticipated primary was held this week on the exact other end of the country. In Maine, Graham Platner trounced his opponents in the Democratic Senate race, winning over 70% of the vote despite a concerted campaign against him in the national press. In his victory speech, CNN reports Platner wrote off the smears, saying “They don't know Maine.” Furthermore, he said “If you believe, as I do, that we can change our politics, and change our country, then you must also believe that people can change…To all those who feel let down, disappointed, or disillusioned. It is my job to earn your trust, your faith, and your support. And I will spend every day of this campaign, and if I have the privilege, every day in the United States Senate, doing exactly that.” Platner will face off against five-term incumbent Senator Susan Collins in a race that will be decisive if Democrats are to have any chance of retaking the Senate in the 2026 midterms.* Turning towards the plains, two candidates are starting to show a surprising level of viability in heavily Republican, rural states. First, in Idaho, Todd Achilles is running as an independent against Republican incumbent Senator Jim Risch. Achilles served as a tank commander and armor officer in the Army before a varied career in the corporate world, education and now politics, according to Independent Voter News. The most striking development in this race is a new poll showing that while “Achilles starts out…behind by 14 points at 48-34…once voters hear biographical information about him and negative messaging about Senator Risch, he gains a full 17 points…[leading] Risch, 41% to 38%.” If accurate, this would be a stunningly close race in a state where registered Republicans outnumber registered Democrats by a margin greater than 5-to-1.* In South Dakota, Brian Bengs, another veteran turned educator – turned, in this case, National Park Ranger – is running shockingly close to incumbent Republican Senator Mike Rounds in a head-to-head matchup. According to the South Dakota Standard, the latest polling shows Rounds leading Bengs 44% to 40%, with 16% undecided. Moreover, like the Achilles poll, when voters are given biographical information about Bengs and negative messaging about Senator Rounds, that margin flips to 44% in favor of Bengs, compared to just 42% for Rounds. If these polls are accurate and independent candidates – not just Achilles and Bengs but also Dan Osborn in Nebraska and Seth Bodnar in Montana – prove viable, perhaps even victorious, in states long seen as out of reach for non-Republicans, there will have to be a serious reckoning with the toxicity of the Democratic Party brand in the American heartland.* In Michigan, progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed has picked up perhaps the most critical possible endorsement in the state: that of the United Auto Workers. In a statement, the union wrote that “UAW members in Michigan want a fighter in Washington, D.C. who isn't afraid to push forward a strong working-class agenda with moral clarity…From Medicare for All to banning stock buybacks, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is ready, eager, and well-equipped to move our core issues in the U.S. Senate.” Whether because of this endorsement or not, El-Sayed now seems to be in the driver's seat in this primary. This endorsement dovetails with UAW President Shawn Fain's rumored frustration with the mainstream labor movement for not doing more to back labor candidates, such as Clare Valdez in New York, who was a UAW organizer before entering the State Assembly.* On the House floor meanwhile, lame-duck dissident Republican Congressman Thomas Massie delivered a barn-burner of a speech this week, demanding that the government reopen the investigation into the 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty, Al Jazeera reports. The attack on the Liberty, a US Navy vessel, killed 34 service members and injured 171 others. For decades, Israel has claimed that this was nothing more than an accidental incident of friendly fire, but the surviving veterans have long disputed this explanation, contending that it was a deliberate attack, either as a “false flag operation or because they simply didn't want anybody observing what they were doing that day.” Massie called on the House to “give them closure…It's long overdue. And then they can have their justice.”* Looking to Latin America, the presidential election in Peru is, predictably, coming down to a razor thin margin, WLRN reports. This race, between left-wing Senator Roberto Sánchez and Keiko Fujimori, perennial presidential candidate and daughter of former dictator Alberto Fujimori, currently stands at 50.004% for Fujimori and 49.996% for Sánchez, with 98.258% of the votes tabulated. Sánchez was favored to win after the in-country votes were counted, then Fujimori pulled ahead when the votes from Miami came in, other absentee votes eroded that margin and gave Sánchez the edge once again but Fujimori has yet again pulled ahead by a hair. This is Fujimori's fourth presidential campaign, making it to the runoff each time but ultimately losing by the narrowest of margins.* Finally, in Colombia, Progressive International reports that while Colombian President Gustavo Petro presides at the United Nations Security Council, “conservative forces in the country's legislature have conspired against the constitution to ‘SUSPEND' his presidency — just 11 days from the run-off presidential election.” While Reuters adds that the proposal must be “debated and approved by all ‌16 ⁠members of the [legislative Commission of Investigation and ​Accusation] and subsequently by the Senate before it can take effect,” it is hard to see this as anything besides an opportunistic grab for power while the proverbial cat is away. Petro's four-year term ends in August; the runoff in the presidential election, between leftist Ivan Cepeda and right-wing lawyer Abelardo ​De La Espriella, will be held on ​June 21st.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Tommy and Ben are back to discuss a week that includes collapsed ceasefire(s), the World Cup, and Jared and Ivanka pretending to be conquistadors.The so-called ceasefires between Israel and Lebanon and the US and Iran continue to unravel, while Trump insists he has Iran and Israel under his control and twists reality (and the English language) to fit his narrative. Then, Ivanka Trump claims to have "discovered" a pristine, protected ecological island off the coast of Albania, sparking major protests and a government corruption investigation. The FIFA World Cup kicks off this week across three countries and 16 cities, and the guys dig into the Trump administration's decision to use the biggest sporting event on earth as an opportunity to deny visas to fans, journalists, and even Africa's top referee. Xi Jinping pays his first visit to North Korea in seven years amidst reports about Kim Jong Un's surprising economic turnaround. Former Trump National Security advisor John Bolton pleads guilty to mishandling classified information, while a CIA official is caught with 303 gold bars and a 15-year-old Nigerian congressional candidate is exposed for faking his age on the campaign trail. Then Tommy speaks with the BBC's Mexico, Central America, and Cuba Correspondent, Will Grant, about life on the ground in Cuba, what US intervention on the island could look like, and the vibes in Mexico City ahead of the World Cup. Will's book is Populista: The Rise of Latin America's 21st Century Strongman.Buy Ben's book All We Say: The Battle for American Identity: A History in 15 Speeches  and subscribe to his Substack here.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
