More than 100 Labour MPs are calling this morning for the Government to put up gambling taxes to pay for scrapping the two child cap on universal credit. Lifting the cap would cost an estimated £3 billion a year. Chancellor Rachel Reeves already has a £20 to £30 billion deficit to try and balance in the November budget. So, should she do it?

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 학교 부모 현실| Raising Kids, Navigating Schools: What Parents Really Face | Episode 28 (2025)It's back-to-school season, and while many families are packing lunches and buying supplies, some of us — especially in immigrant or multicultural homes — carry invisible loads. We're advocating for kids who don't “fit the mold,” navigating behavioral concerns, or trying to decode school systems never designed with us in mind.That's why we hosted “More Than a Backpack,” a live panel born out of my own rough start to kindergarten with my daughter. What followed was a raw, honest, and deeply needed conversation with parents and professionals who know this weight firsthand.Ms. Farah, worship pastor, creative leader, and mom of six, shared wisdom from home and ministry. Her reminder: the system is too overwhelmed to parent our kids and knowing their individual needs is our sacred work.Dr. Ihyembe, developmental-behavioral pediatrician, explained why some appointments can't be squeezed into 15 minutes and how parents must see themselves as advocates, not outsiders. She drew a clear line between what pills can and can't do and when to seek professional help.Mr. Afolabiyi, husband and dad of three, spoke with candor about the quiet weight fathers carry, urging couples to stay united and keep children's needs first.Ms. Millicent, nurse practitioner, content creator, and mom of four, brought humor and honesty. She reminded us that “real” parenting isn't about being perfect, and that grace and connection matter just as much as grades.Ms. Shola Adewumi, mom of two and nursing student, shared her journey raising a son labeled “too emotional.” Guided by faith, she learned to trust her instincts and advocate for him in ways that mattered.In my own reflections, I compared navigating U.S. schools with Nigeria's system and saw how adaptation isn't optional; it's essential. Across all stories ran the same thread: parents filling gaps with lessons, encouragement, and relentless advocacy, because our children are more than grades or labels.

Episode SummaryIn this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Coach Alex sits down with Dr. Chigozie Nwosu—physician, author, and founder of Brave Minds Hub—to explore how faith, courage, and purpose intersect in the fight against depression.From her early medical career in Nigeria to founding two life-changing organizations, Dr. Nwosu's journey is marked by bold stands against injustice, compassionate outreach to underserved communities, and an unwavering commitment to helping others live fulfilled, God-centered lives.Her book Overcoming Depression blends medical insight with biblical truth, challenging the idea that depression can only be managed, and offering a Christ-centered path to lasting freedom.

Kaj Larsen: From Navy SEAL to Groundbreaking Journalist This week on the Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus and Melanie welcome an extraordinary guest whose life reads like an action thriller—Kaj Larsen. Born in Santa Cruz, California, Kaj earned his Political Science degree from UC Santa Cruz and went on to Harvard's Kennedy School of Government for a master's in Public Policy, where he was a Shorenstein Center fellow and a joint fellow at Tufts Jebsen Center for Counter-Terrorism Studies. Kaj's journey is anything but ordinary. Before breaking stories on global conflict zones, he served five years on active duty as a U.S. Navy SEAL Lieutenant leading special operations overseas. He continues to serve in the SEAL reserves with U.S. Special Operations Command. As an award-winning filmmaker and journalist, Kaj has reported from some of the most dangerous places on earth—Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, and beyond—producing groundbreaking documentaries on terrorism, national security, and humanitarian crises. He's been a senior correspondent at NowThis News, hosted the Emmy Award-winning VICE on HBO, and developed the Vanguard Journalism series for Current TV. Kaj made headlines for being the first journalist to bring waterboarding to public attention—by undergoing it himself on camera—and for breaking media silence in Mogadishu as the first Western TV journalist there in over a decade. Outside the newsroom, Kaj is a two-time national open-water swimming champion, an Escape from Alcatraz duathlon competitor, and a dedicated practitioner of Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai boxing. His commitment to service extends beyond reporting: he co-founded The Mission Continues and serves on the boards of Team Rubicon Global and other veteran service organizations, deploying for humanitarian missions around the world. Join us as Kaj shares stories from his remarkable career—what it takes to tell the truth from the frontlines, the lessons learned from military service and global reporting, and why resilience and service are at the heart of his mission. Tune in for a gripping, behind-the-scenes look at a life dedicated to serving, reporting, and making an impact on a global scale. In this episode you will hear: • [COVID} Here's a crisis that is about health, and you're shutting down wellness. (7:10) • Murph was my roommate when I first got to BUD/S.

From the BBC World Service: After nearly a decade of negotiations, the European Union and Indonesia have agreed to a trade deal, in part to offset some of the effects of Trump's tariffs. Then, Nigeria has cut interest rates for the first time in five years. Plus, India has reduced taxes on everyday items to counteract the effects of U.S. tariffs, and the UK government says it saved around $600 million last year using artificial intelligence to combat fraud.

Earlier this year, a new movie called “My Father's Shadow” made history when it became the first Nigerian film to be officially selected for the Cannes Film Festival. Set over the course of a single day in Lagos in 1993 (a day that happens to be one of the most catastrophic in Nigerian history), the film follows two young boys who join their father on a trip to the city so he can collect his paycheck. The story is semi-autobiographical, based on director Akinola Davies Jr.'s own family experiences. During this year's Toronto International Film Festival, Akinola sat down with Tom Power to talk about memory, Nigeria's lesser known history, and the stuff you learn about your parents after they're gone.

Nigeria is home to 100 known species of bats—about a third of Africa's bat species—but scientists don't know much about them. Ecologists Iroro Tanshi and Benneth Obitte, collaborators and life partners, are trying to change that. In addition to studying and protecting the bats of their homeland, they're also working to raise up a whole network of bat scientists across West Africa. Host Flora Lichtman talks with them about how they started their work, what they've learned, and how they're paving the way for other bat conservationists. Guests:Dr. Iroro Tanshi is an ecologist at the University of Washington and cofounder of the Small Mammal Conservation Organization.Dr. Benneth Obitte is a conservation ecologist at Texas Tech University and cofounder of the Small Mammal Conservation Organization.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

We all wrestle with negative voices, perfectionism, and fear of stepping into the unknown. In this episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense Odiase takes you on a raw, passionate journey into what it means to chase dreams with faith, overcome self-doubt, and live surrendered to God's calling.From Calgary hotel rooms to reflections on Nigeria's culture, Norense breaks down how resistance is part of the process—and why chasing your vision requires more than talent or effort. It demands surrender. He unpacks biblical truths about creation, sin, love, and deliverance, reminding us that we are made for purpose, not performance.If you've ever felt unqualified, unseen, or stuck, this episode will fuel your faith, confront your fear, and call you higher.Why resistance means you're moving in the right directionThe difference between information and revelation—and how to apply wisdomHow to nurture your gifts like a newborn babyWhy both secular independence and empty religion fall short of true purposeThe power of stubborn faith, surrender, and seeing yourself as God sees youPhilippians 4:13 – “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”Ephesians 1:18 – The eyes of your understanding enlightenedRomans 12:6 – Use your gifts according to the measure of faithJeremiah 29:11 – Plans to prosper you, not to harm youHebrews 12:2 – For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross“Suppress less. Express more.”“If you don't know who gave you the dream, you won't know what to do with it.”“Stop whining about resistance—thank God you're being stretched.”“Your gifts aren't for you—they're for the world God placed you in.”“Faith isn't striving; it's surrendering.”Spotify: Mind Bully PodcastApple: Mind Bully Podcast

Chad Prather isn't just the fast-talking guy from viral videos—he's lived enough adventures for three lifetimes. In this captivating conversation, Chad takes us through his remarkable journey from humble beginnings in rural Georgia to becoming a multifaceted entertainer, political voice, and man of faith.With his trademark rapid-fire delivery and Southern wit, Chad reveals the fascinating chapters of his life that most fans never knew existed. From working undercover with the FBI infiltrating cartels to surviving a terrifying encounter with a baboon in Nigeria, his stories are as entertaining as they are surprising. He candidly discusses his transition from television to comedy, his decision to run for Texas governor during COVID, and the personal demons he's battled along the way.What truly resonates is Chad's raw honesty about his struggles with depression and substance abuse. "I was looking for reality in a bag of drugs or at the bottom of a bottle," he admits, "and I realized there was no reality down there." This journey through darkness eventually led him back to his faith—a recurring theme throughout our conversation that provides powerful insight into his worldview.The discussion takes a serious turn when addressing cancel culture, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and the state of free speech in America. Rather than responding with fear, Chad sees these challenges as opportunities for truth to spread faster and wider. "They never learn on the cancel culture," he observes. "If you do kill me, it just amplifies the voice."Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering Chad for the first time, this conversation offers a deeper understanding of the man behind the viral videos—a complex, thoughtful individual whose greatest talent might be his ability to wake up each day, as he puts it, "in a new world."

L'Assemblée générale des Nations unies (qui célèbre ses 80 ans cette année) s'ouvre cette semaine à New York. Il y a un an, lors de ce rendez-vous, Joe Biden, alors président des États-Unis, s'engageait en faveur de deux sièges permanents pour l'Afrique au Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU. Un an plus tard, cet espoir s'est-il envolé ? Directeur régional de l'Institut d'études de sécurité pour l'Afrique de l'Est, Paul-Simon Handy répond aux questions de Florence Morice. RFI : La France va pousser à New York cette semaine pour une réforme du Conseil de sécurité. Est-ce que l'Afrique a une chance de décrocher enfin un ou plusieurs sièges de membres permanents de ce Conseil ? Paul-Simon Handy : Je ne pense pas que ça se décide cette année. Il y a un consensus grandissant parmi les cinq membres permanents du Conseil de sécurité sur le fait que le Conseil, tel qu'il est, ne peut plus résoudre les problèmes mondiaux et qu'il faille l'élargir, mais surtout aussi qu'il faille que l'Afrique soit représentée. Mais une fois qu'on a exprimé cela, on n'a pas résolu le problème qui est que si tout le monde s'accorde sur l'élargissement, personne n'est d'accord sur les modalités pour y arriver. Comment expliquez-vous que, sur le principe au moins, chacun s'accorde désormais sur cette nécessité d'un élargissement du Conseil de sécurité au continent africain ? Pour l'Afrique, ce qui a été important, c'était la réalisation aussi du fait que l'Afrique est probablement la dernière frontière, comme on dit, le nouvel espace du développement. La croissance mondiale, ne fois qu'elle va s'estomper en Asie, elle va se passer en Afrique. Et je pense que pour tous ceux qui veulent faire des affaires en Afrique, il faudrait pouvoir donner quelque chose en échange à l'Afrique. Je pense donc que c'est politiquement que l'Afrique a grandi en importance. Et ceci se reflète maintenant dans le fait qu'on envisage de plus en plus qu'elle ait un siège au Conseil. Ce qui coince notamment, c'est la question du droit de veto. Les membres actuels ne veulent pas le partager avec de nouveaux entrants. Est-ce qu'il y a eu des avancées ou des évolutions à ce sujet cette année ? Il y a très peu de mouvement sur la question de veto. Il y a beaucoup d'options qui sont sur la table. L'une des options, c'est qu'on élargisse le veto à tout le monde, y compris les nouveaux, ou alors qu'on l'abolisse pour tout le monde. Mais si on fait perdre ce droit à ses détenteurs aujourd'hui, il faudrait leur donner quelque chose en échange. Et c'est justement sur cet aspect que les discussions ne sont pas encore achevées. Un autre problème, c'est que, en cas d'élargissement, il n'y a pas de consensus entre les pays africains sur la manière de choisir les deux pays qui occuperaient ces deux sièges permanents, où on est-on sur ce sujet ? A cette question, les pays africains généralement ont une parade. Ils disent « mettons nous d'accord sur le principe et nous vous présenterons les deux représentants de l'Afrique », ce qui permet de gagner du temps à vrai dire. On sait très bien qu'il sera difficile de trouver deux représentants parce que les prétendants sont nombreux et les critères pour la représentation sont assez précis. Il n'y a pas beaucoup de pays africains industrialisés qui auraient les moyens, une fois membre du Conseil de sécurité, de contribuer financièrement, matériellement aux décisions, à la mise en œuvre des décisions prises par le Conseil de sécurité. Mais donc où en est-on sur le mode de désignation, toujours d'un côté l'Union africaine qui a créé le C10, un groupe de pays chargés de négocier, mais de l'autre côté, des pays tels que l'Égypte et l'Afrique du Sud qui négocient de leur côté ? Le C10 est au moins l'instance officielle. Il est le lieu où les propositions officielles sont discutées. Mais il y a, à côté du C10, énormément de forums informels. Je pense que l'Afrique du Sud et l'Égypte mènent une campagne active, discrète - parce que, d'un autre côté, ils ne veulent pas non plus apparaître comme faisant cavalier seul - discrète, mais très efficace. Ils ont élargi leurs négociations parce qu'ils sentent qu'il y a une vraie opportunité ces temps-ci. Mais ils ont des concurrents, des pays comme le Nigeria et certains autres pays du Maghreb, qui ont tout à fait le potentiel pour représenter l'Afrique et même un pays de plus en plus comme l'Éthiopie, qui, de plus en plus, veut avoir voix au chapitre de la géopolitique africaine et mondiale. Ce ne sera pas facile pour les candidats individuels. Il sera beaucoup question de Gaza à New York. Qu'en sera-t-il du Soudan ? Selon les Nations Unies, c'est la plus grande crise humanitaire au monde avec un risque de génocide jugé « très élevé ». Est-ce que c'est à l'agenda ? Le Soudan est une vraie urgence, mais une urgence qui malheureusement se mêle à d'autres urgences internationales qui la relèguent un peu au dernier plan. Mais c'est un vrai danger. Le monde regarde ailleurs et risque après de devoir investir encore beaucoup d'argent pour payer les conséquences de la négligence actuelle.

Raconter l'Afrique et ses diasporas à travers leurs sons et leurs musiques, c'est l'objectif d'une exposition immersive au Musée d'ethnographie de Genève, en Suisse. Avec plus de 200 œuvres – archives, instruments anciens et installations contemporaines –, Afrosonica. Paysages sonores embarque le public dans un voyage multisensoriel qui met en lumière le son comme vecteur de connexion, de résistance et de changement. Des tambours et des luths, des gousses de fruits et des cocons d'insectes, des graines et des coquillages : c'est l'Afrique dans toute sa diversité sonore qui se déploie sur 1 000 mètres carrés au Musée d'ethnographie de Genève. Mo Laudi, artiste multidisciplinaire et DJ sud-africain, est co-commissaire de l'exposition : « "Afrosonica" fait référence à une tradition dans les townships de fusionner des mots pour créer de nouvelles significations. Ici, c'est l'idée que l'Afrique est riche ; les minéraux les plus précieux proviennent du Congo et se retrouvent dans nos téléphones portables ; l'or d'Afrique du Sud orne les Rolex. Et quand vous écoutez du rock and roll, il a ses racines en Afrique, tout comme le hip-hop et le jazz. Aujourd'hui, il y a une fierté à affirmer : "Je suis Africain." Il est essentiel de se souvenir de ces racines pour avancer. » Cet ambassadeur de l'afro-électro présente lui-même une création. Inspirée des peintures murales des maisons d'Afrique du Sud, il y mêle plastique recyclé et chants de travail. Avec l'ethnomusicologue canadienne Madeleine Leclair, conservatrice au MEG, les deux commissaires ont puisé dans les 20 000 heures d'archives du musée et passé commande à sept artistes contemporains pour créer un parcours libre où le son est outil de mémoire, de transmission, de contestation. À écouter aussiAfrosonica, paysages sonores au Musée d'Ethnographie de Genève (MEG) Madeleine Leclair : « Les grands mouvements politiques, les grands chamboulements qui ont marqué l'histoire de l'Afrique – la colonisation, décolonisation, indépendance – étaient accompagnés de musique. C'est vraiment un élément fédérateur. Également en Afrique du Sud, à l'époque de l'apartheid notamment, le gouvernement est même allé jusqu'à censurer des enregistrements, de personnages importants dans la contestation rayés du disque. » Une vingtaine de thèmes rythment le parcours, illustrant le pouvoir du son entre révolte et résilience, rituel et réactivation de la mémoire. Des peintures préhistoriques de harpes du Sahara croisent le chant vaudou du Bénin des années 1960, tandis que la rumba congolaise se frotte aux vinyles d'un jukebox. Le public peut assister à un « bain d'oreilles » au Nigeria et se laisser hypnotiser par le vrombissement d'un rhombe, petit objet en os, en bois ou en ivoire, que l'on fait tournoyer au-dessus de la tête à l'aide d'une ficelle. Madeleine Leclair : « Ces rhombes sont mis en mouvement sur les cinq continents, notamment au Brésil, en Australie également, et en Afrique, ça peut aussi être interprété comme la voix des ancêtres. » Et parfois, il suffit d'un bidon d'huile et d'un câble de frein à vélo pour créer une cithare au Burkina Faso et redonner un sens au son. ► L'exposition Afrosonica. Paysages sonores à voir et à écouter au MEG en Suisse jusqu'au 4 janvier 2026.

La Côte d'Ivoire exerce-t-elle une véritable influence géopolitique en Afrique de l'Ouest, et son soft power est-il à la hauteur de son poids économique et culturel ? Tandis que son rôle de hub économique et la vitalité de sa scène artistique ne sont plus à démontrer, le pays peine encore à transformer cette puissance en leadership diplomatique durable. Entre la diplomatie régionale, l'accueil d'événements internationaux et la diffusion de sa culture, jusqu'où va réellement son rayonnement ? La Côte d'Ivoire peut-elle rivaliser avec ses voisins, le Nigeria et le Ghana ?

Your true voice carries the spark of purpose and the fire of your soul’s calling. In this episode, Jessica Bailey joins Kaye to share how listening to her inner voice transformed silence and struggle into story, power, and leadership — a journey that reveals how every step, even the hardest, prepares us for our destined path. Born in Nigeria, Jessica’s life took an unexpected turn at 21 when she left her family behind and moved to Australia, married to a man twice her age. What followed was a journey through displacement, racism, and the deep ache of not belonging. Yet within these challenges, Jessica discovered an unwavering inner strength — one that led her beyond survival into purpose. A nurse by profession but unfulfilled in her heart, she one day heard her inner voice speak clearly. That moment of surrender sparked a path that made sense only in hindsight, eventually inspiring her award-winning short film I’m Not a Nurse and igniting her work as a Certified Life Coach, keynote speaker, author, and director. In this soulful conversation, Jessica and Kaye explore what it means to: Transform silence and displacement into story, purpose, and presence. Surrender to the knowing that everything unfolds for our higher path and outcomes. Reclaim your true voice as a bridge between story, purpose, and leadership. More than a story, this episode carries the energy and intention held within each word — an energy that has the power to awaken and transform those who listen.

Le changement climatique a des effets visibles sur nos paysages. Derrière les chiffres et les rapports scientifiques, ce sont des territoires, des écosystèmes et des vies humaines qui sont bouleversés. C'est le cas notamment de la région du lac Tchad. Situé à la frontière entre le Niger, le Nigeria, le Cameroun et le Tchad, ce bassin hydrographique était l'une des plus grandes réserves d'eau douce du continent. Après avoir rétréci à une vitesse alarmante pendant plusieurs décennies, désormais, sous l'effet du changement climatique : il s'agrandit ! Au gré des pluies, le lac se métamorphose… Cela peut sembler une bonne nouvelle pour les ressources en eau de la région, mais c'est un véritable bouleversement pour les populations qui dépendent de l'agriculture et de la pêche pour leur survie quotidiennement menacée par les attaques de Boko Haram. Un reportage de Carol Valade, envoyé spécial pour RFI. Carol a rendez-vous sur les rives du lac, côté tchadien à Kisra avec Mahamat Mbomi. Mahamat est chauffeur pour le Comité International de la Croix-Rouge. Avec ses économies, il s'est lancé dans l'agriculture, mais tout ne s'est pas passé comme prévu... Avec les éclairages de Florence Sylvestre, directrice de recherches à l'IRD, l'Institut de la recherche pour le développement, professeur associé à l'Université de N'Djamena, qui étudie le climat et les ressources en eau du Sahel.

Tessa K. (28) macht sich Sorgen um ihre beste Freundin Laura, die nach der Trennung vom selbstverliebten Schönling Sören zur antriebslosen Stubenhockerin geworden ist.

You know what they say, four heads are better than one, so it makes sense that we have two Cannes-certified heads in the house! Wale & Funmbi, the writer and producers of My Father's Shadow, join us for such a well-rounded episode. We discuss what to do if you're a dark-hearted cheat, how to get over the idea of “the one that got away”, father-son dynamics in Nigerian society and how tumultuous parental relationships can be, which led us to their highly anticipated film, written to portray the father-son connection set against a 1993 military-ruled Nigeria.

Send us a textDrug-resistant germs are hidden killers in more than one way. Not only are the microbes invisible to the human eye, in many places, they're invisible because people simply are not looking for them systematically.Doctors often do not know what infections their patients have and treat them based on best guesses, which allows for ineffective treatments and exacerbates drug resistance. Policymakers don't know which infections are most common among populations and cannot make informed decisions about needed treatments or vaccines.This is a major problem across Africa and a new report shows just how complex the problem is.The Mapping AMR and Antimicrobial use Partnership (MAAP), which included the One Health Trust as well as the African Society for Laboratory Medicine; Africa CDC; the East, Central, and Southern Africa Health Community; Innovative Support to Emergencies, Diseases, and Disasters, a nonprofit focused on technology and communication;  the clinical research group IQVIA; and the West African Health Organization, collected data from laboratories from 14 countries in Africa (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Eswatini, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe). “The study revealed significant gaps in bacteriology testing capacities,” the group, whose work was paid for by the UK government's Fleming Fund, wrote in PLoS Medicine.It's the biggest survey yet of testing for antimicrobial resistance – AMR or drug resistance – in Africa.Among the gaps: too little testing overall, a lack of laboratory capacities, and poor coordination and analysis of records. Many records were kept only on paper, which made them almost impossible to access.None of this surprises Dr. Sabiha Essack, South African Research Chair in Antibiotic Resistance and One Health and Professor in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. In an ideal world, she says, a doctor, nurse or other professional should see a patient, test them to see what specific microbe is causing an infection, check to see which drugs will successfully fight that germ, and then treat the patient accordingly.Cheap point-of-care tests should be available everywhere and the results of those tests should be entered into systems that officials can use to make policy decisions, she says. Listen as she tells One World, One Health host Maggie Fox other ways to improve our knowledge about the drug-resistant infections that lurk out there. Want to know more?

From the BBC World Service: Argentina's president Javier Milei announced a change of course, with plans to increase spending on pensions, health and education. There's a drive in some African countries — including Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa — to create more AI products in different languages, to open up the new tech to more people across the continent. And automaker Jaguar Land Rover confirmed its factories in the UK will stay shut for another week following a cyber hack.

Public companies report their earnings every three months, giving investors and the public regular snapshots of how business is going. But President Trump wants to see fewer of those reports. In a social media post on Monday, he said companies should report just twice a year instead of quarterly. Susan Schmidt, a portfolio manager at Exchange Capital Resources — and one of the folks who is often looking at those reports — joins us to weigh in.Plus, the Federal Reserve kicks off a two-day meeting on interest rates, and we take a closer look at efforts in South Africa, Kenya and Nigeria to develop more AI products in African languages.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk They frame Kirk’s death as a political assassination, comparing it to historical killings of JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr. The hosts emphasize concerns about political violence, the dangers of polarization, and left-wing reactions online. They highlight messages of unity from unexpected voices on the left, such as Cenk Uygur, while contrasting that with those celebrating Kirk’s death. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria Cruz details violence by Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa, citing statistics of tens of thousands of Christians killed and thousands of churches destroyed. He introduces the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, which seeks to: Classify Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” for religious freedom. Keep Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa labeled as terrorist groups. Sanction Nigerian officials complicit in persecution. The discussion connects this to broader issues of U.S. foreign policy, criticizing past administrations (especially Obama and Biden) for not doing enough to defend persecuted Christians. Tucker Carlson’s controversial statements Carlson’s remarks about offering condolences to Osama bin Laden’s family, questioning Hamas’s designation as a terrorist group, and sympathetic portrayals of Russia and Iran are strongly criticized. Cruz and Ferguson accuse Carlson of moral relativism, equating his views with those of progressive politicians like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib. They reaffirm that groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda, and ISIS are terrorist organizations, citing both U.S. and international designations as well as historical attacks.

Biden Pardons & Autopen Controversy The discussion centers on claims that President Joe Biden improperly delegated or failed to personally authorize thousands of pardons and commutations at the end of his presidency. Cruz argues that under the Constitution, only the President can personally make pardon decisions, and if staffers used an autopen without Biden’s direct involvement, those pardons are “null and void.” The conversation highlights concerns about Biden’s alleged disengagement, potential misuse of authority by White House staff, and the legal battles that could arise if the Department of Justice revisits these pardons. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria Cruz introduces legislation addressing severe religious persecution in Nigeria, where extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa have killed tens of thousands of Christians, attacked churches, and kidnapped priests. The proposed bill, the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, would classify Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern,” impose sanctions on complicit Nigerian officials, and reinforce designations against jihadist groups. Cruz frames this as part of his long-standing advocacy for global religious freedom and draws parallels to past cases, such as Sudan’s imprisonment of Miriam Ibrahim for her Christian faith.

This week we're exploring the dark masculine  a side of the masculine that most of us have never been shown, yet is essential for true intimacy, polarity, and healing.   I sat down with Adeyemi, a men's coach and wisdom-keeper, whose journey has taken him from Nigeria to Germany, through deep struggles, plant medicine work, and ultimately into his mission of helping men reclaim their power. In our conversation, we opened up about shame, sexuality, and what it really takes for men to hold both their light and their shadow without rejecting any part of themselves.   Together, we explored:
