Episode 2620 - Are we going to invade Venezuela? Update housing market! mRNA causing cancer? Is Home Depot being sued? Larry Fink says no cars or home ownership for the peasants. peasants! Have situational awareness. Plus much more!
This week we talk about flesh-eating screwworms, weeds, and the US cattle industry.We also discuss genetic modification, procreation, and tsetse flies.Recommended Book: 1177 BC by Eric H ClineTranscriptThe term ‘autocidal control‘ refers to a collection of techniques that are meant to control populations of some type of living thing, animal or plant, by disrupting their procreationary capacity.So rather than attempting to control pest by spraying poisons all over the place, or controlling plants you consider to be invasive weeds by launching huge weed-pulling efforts in the afflicted areas, you might instead figure out how to keep this current generation of pests and weeds from having as many offspring as they might otherwise have, and then repeat the process with the next generation, and the next, and so on, until the unwanted species is either eradicated in the relevant region, or reduced to such a small number that its presence is no longer such a big deal.There are all kinds of approaches one might take in trying to achieve this sort of outcome.Experimental genetic modification measures, for instance, have been tried in, so far at least, limited ways, the idea being to either make the disliked species less competitive in some way (by making them slower, and thus more likely to be eaten by predators, maybe), or by making them less likely to have offspring, or less likely to have fit offspring—the next generation becomes super slow and clumsy, or they're carriers of a gene that keeps them from procreating as much, or at all.That approach seems like it could be effective, and there are quite a few efforts, globally, that're working to refine and perfect it with mosquito species in particular, specifically the ones that are carriers of malaria-causing parasites and similar maladies that cause immense harm to local human (and other mammal) populations.There have also been attempts to spray mating grounds with pheromones that disrupt mating behavior, or to use what's called the Autodissemination Augmented by Males, or ADAM approach, which has been used to decent effect in some trials, and which involves basically just sprinkling a bunch of male mosquitos with pesticide, releasing them into mosquito mating grounds, and then having them deliver those pesticides to the females they mate with.All of these efforts are meant to reduce populations via some procreationary mechanism, while also attempting to ameliorate some of the other issues associated with other, widely used pest- and weed-control approaches. Most of which rely on some kind of chemical being introduced into the right environment, that chemical helping to kill or disrupt these populations, but in many cases also leading to unwanted, and often initially unforeseen side effects, like those chemicals messing with other species, getting into the groundwater and possibly being associated with maladies in humans, and so on.What I'd like to talk about today is another approach, the sterile insect technique, why it's become so popular in recent decades, and how it's being used, today, to address a burgeoning population of a pest that was previously eliminated in North America using this technique, but which has recently become a problem, once more.—The New World screwworm fly is thus named because its larvae, its baby offspring, are planted in warm-blooded animals. These offspring eat not just dead tissues, like the maggots of other flies, but healthy tissues as well.These maggots are often deposited near wounds, like cuts or scrapes, but also injuries caused by the castration or dehorning of cattle, or orifices and other sensitive areas with soft tissue, like the corner of a host's eye.They don't typically infest humans, but it does happen, and they're most likely to be found on wild and domesticated mammals, the females of the species depositing somewhere between 250 and 500 eggs in the flesh of their hosts, the maggots screwing their way deeper into their host's flesh as they grow, burrowing and eating for the next three to seven days, at which point they fall off and enter the next stage of their lifecycle. By that point the host may already be dead, depending on the extent of the damage these things manage to cause in the interim.These flies were originally found across the Americas and on some Caribbean islands, and they have long been a headache for cattle ranchers in particular, as they will sometimes infect one cow or goat, and then work their way through the entire herd in relatively short order, causing enough damage to seriously injure or kill a whole lot of the rancher's stock.As a result, humans have been trying to get rid of these things for ages, but nothing seemed to make much of a dent in their populations until the emergence of what's called the sterile insect technique, which is exactly what it sounds like: a method of autocidal control that involves sterilizing members of the species, usually the males, and then releasing them back into the population.Variations on this concept were developed by a few different researchers in a few different places around the world in the lead-up to WWII, but just after that conflict, scientists working at the US Department of Agriculture realized that they could use x-rays to reliably sterilize male screwworm flies, and that if they did this to a large number of them, then released those males into the local population of screwworm flies, to the point where there are more sterilized males than non-sterilized ones, that would serve to dramatically reduce the size of the next generation. If you then repeat this over and over again, you can eventually wipe out the species in a given region, as they successfully showed in the early 1950s by eradicating all the screwworms on Sanibel Island in Florida.The same technique was then used to kill all the screwworms on the island of Curacao, off the coast of Venezuela—that kill-off achieved in just seven weeks. Over the next few decades, sterilized male flies were then released across other afflicted US states, and both Mexico and Belize were able to kill all their screwworms in the 1980s, followed by Central America in the 1990s.This approach was also applied to other pests, almost always those that either spread disease to humans, or threatened local industries, like cattle or agricultural industries.For instance, tsetse flies, carriers of a parasite that causes sleeping sickness, were entirely or almost entirely eradicated from Tanzania, Zanzibar, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and Uganda between the 1940s and late-1990s, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, the carriers of dengue and yellow fever, were sterilized by a bacteria called Wolbachia in Queensland, Australia, in the late-20-teens, which reduced the populations of this disease-carrier in trial areas by 80%, and Japan eradicated the melon fly, an agricultural pest, in 1993.This approach to pest-control has become so popular that dozens of facilities have been set up in countries around the world, exclusively to breed and sterilize different species, which can then be shipped to where they will be released. The first of these facilities was built in Mexico in the 1960s, where Mexican fruit flies were bred and then shipped for release in Texas.It's maybe fitting then that a new round of construction is happening, today, intending to combat the renewed presence of screwworms in Mexico, which have been making their way up into Texas via these two nations' cattle industries.The US Department of Agriculture recently announced that it will be building a sterile screwworm fly facility in Texas, which has suffered due to the US's recent decisions to halt the import of cattle from across the border in Mexico due to issues with screwworms hitching a ride on that cattle stock, and thus infiltrating US herds. The government tried several times to drop this cessation of imports, as the US cattle industry is pretty reliant on those imports, but each time they tried, new screwworm infestations were found, and the import halt was put back into place.US cattle populations are already at their lowest level in decades, and that's impacting meat and dairy prices, while also putting other warm-blooded animals in the afflicted regions, especially Texas, at risk.The folks behind the new facility have said they hope to be up and running in relatively short order, aiming to be releasing sterile male New World screwworms into the wild within a year. This deployment will operate in tandem with other, more direct efforts, like fly traps and parasite-sniffing dogs stationed at ports of entry.The concerns here are not just theoretical: screwworms alone cause an estimated $1.5 billion in damage each year, and the cost of implementing a sterilization program of this kind usually adds up to something like a billion dollars, spread across decades; not a bad return on investment.These programs are not universally effective, though, as in some rare cases non-irradiated males have accidentally been shipped to their intended mating location, temporarily inflating rather than deflating population numbers. And while these programs are relatively cheap to operate on scale, the cost of producing enough sterilized males to make such an effort effective can be prohibitive when aimed at smaller regions, or when attempted by governments or agencies without the budget to see what can sometimes be a long-term project through.That said, this approach does seem to work very well when done correctly, and while its ecosystem impact is not zero, as, for instance, predators who eat these pests might suddenly find themselves without one of their staple food sources, which can lead to knock-on effects across the food web, it does seem to be one of the least foodweb ripple-producing approaches, as genetic modifications can theoretically lead to far more elaborate unforeseen consequences, and the widespread spraying of chemicals has semi-regularly led to die-offs and maladies in other local species, in addition to sometimes causing long-term, even fatal health problems for humans who rely on local food or water sources.Show Noteshttps://archive.is/20250815192422/https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/usda-build-texas-facility-fight-flesh-eating-screwworms-2025-08-15/https://www.oregonlive.com/business/2025/08/how-to-stop-flesh-eating-parasite-from-devastating-us-cattle-government-will-breed-billions-of-flies.htmlhttps://apnews.com/article/fly-factories-flesheating-parasite-cattle-texas-429ce91225bbab4a45c9040f1be356a5https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochliomyia_hominivoraxhttps://archive.is/14Rdkhttps://archive.is/afmt2https://archive.is/QfTvGhttps://archive.is/dxbcZhttps://www.oregonlive.com/business/2025/08/how-to-stop-flesh-eating-parasite-from-devastating-us-cattle-government-will-breed-billions-of-flies.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterile_insect_techniquehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sterile_insect_technique_trialshttps://web.archive.org/web/20210416164524/http://www-iswam.iaea.org/drd/refs_files/195_The-Area-wide-SIT-Screwworm.pdfhttps://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/sterile-insect-technique-used-to-suppress-mosquito-disease-vectors-in-floridahttps://www.cdc.gov/mosquitoes/mosquito-control/genetically-modified-mosquitoes.htmlhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-30722-9https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4313646/ This is a public episode.

//The Wire//2300Z August 19, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: PENTAGON DEPLOYS NAVAL ASSETS TO SOUTHCOM TO COMBAT DRUG TRAFFICKING. PARK RANGER STABBED IN COLORADO.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Colorado: A manhunt is underway for an assailant which attacked a park ranger this morning at Staunton State Park in Jefferson County. Local authorities state that an unidentified man stabbed a park ranger this morning, before egressing on foot into the woods of the park. The suspect is described as a White Male, 6'0" tall, 200lbs and is wearing a grey shirt and blue jeans.Washington D.C. - Yesterday evening the White House announced the deployment of US Navy forces to the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility. A Task Force comprising of 3x Destroyers is currently transiting to their patrol areas off the coast of Venezuela, with the stated goal of combatting drug trafficking by sea.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Though it has been de-prioritized in the news cycle lately, the escalation of force to combat narco and cartel activity in Central and South America has continued to grow, with multiple Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) flights being observed deep inside Mexico over the past few weeks. A drone pilot leaving their transponder turned on while conducting a spying mission in southern Mexico is message, and a bold one at that.Last week, the Mexican government stated that they will hand over 26x cartel shotcallers to the United States, so that they cannot continue to run their vast narco empires from prison (or at least make it a little more challenging for them to continue operations). This is very likely an attempt at an olive branch...Mexico may be trying to play ball so that the United States doesn't start dropping Hellfire missiles in their country.More strategically speaking, one of the early indications and warnings of a very sharp increase in combat operations in an area, is the arrival of the US Navy. In the case of counter-narco operations in Central and South America, controlling the seas will be absolutely mandatory for any sort of escalation of conflict, should that course of action be the one taken later on. Arleigh-Burke Class Destroyers serve as a critical part of the Aegis defense doctrine; these vessels are mostly used for missile defense and providing protection for much more vulnerable assets (such as aircraft carriers). In this role they excel, however Destroyers also deploy with VBSS teams onboard. Visit, Board, Search, and Seizure operations are a mainstay of the counter-narco mission on the high seas, and this is very likely what these Naval vessels will be engaged in for the foreseeable future.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

Characteristic of this administration's over-the-top but never-thought-out immigration enforcement, Trump traded more than 250 Venezuelans who had been deported to El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison for 10 Americans who were being held prisoner in Venezuela—including a man convicted of a triple homicide.

La cumbre entre Donald Trump y Vladimir Putin en Alaska dejó más ruido que resultados. Tres horas de reunión, mucha escenografía, pero ningún acuerdo sobre la guerra. No hubo alto el fuego en Ucrania, no hubo compromisos sobre seguridad ni sobre sanciones. Fue, en los hechos, una cumbre diseñada para la foto.
Yesterday Gavin Newsom, the Governor of California, the state with the highest poverty rate in the nation, held a political rally to announce his resistance to the pro-America policies of President Donald J. Trump—and Trump responded with exactly the kind of pro-America smash-mouth politics that I—and I expect YOU—voted for a million times over!Even as Newsom, the California governor of an illegal migrant third-world invader sanctuary state, and Karen Bass, the Los Angeles mayor of an illegal migrant third-world invader sanctuary city, were seeking to rally their supporters inside, Immigration and Customs Enforcement were present OUTSIDE and IN FORCE, making arrests of any illegal migrant third-world invaders that popped up on their radar screen. Next stop for those arrested? HOME! Whether that be Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, Haiti, or if home won't take them perhaps Djibouti or the tropical prison resort of CECOT in El Salvador!

It's Friday, August 15th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslims in Congo kill three, set cars ablaze, & abduct others There were two separate attacks attributed to the Allied Democratic Forces, a Muslim terrorist group operating in the eastern area of the Democratic Republic of Congo, reports International Christian Concern. The first ambush occurred on the evening of Saturday, August 9 in North Kivu Province. The Muslims targeted a specific vehicle and abducted its passengers. The second, more deadly attack occurred during the night of Sunday, August 10 in the Ituri Province. They killed three people, set ablaze several vehicles and houses, and abducted many residents who remain missing. Nearly 10,000 sign petition demanding Toronto mayor end taxpayer funding to homosexual ‘pride' events A petition signed by 10,000 people has been submitted to Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow demanding an end to taxpayer funding of homosexual/ transgender “pride” events, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Earlier this month, Gregory Tomchyshyn, the Canadian campaign director for Citizen Go, dropped off a petition to Mayor Chow calling for her government to end its lavish spending of taxpayer dollars on the promotion of sexual perversion, including the “Toronto Pride” parade. For years now, LifeSiteNews has documented the event's crude floats, public nudity, and public displays of sexual exhibitionism. The petition said, “Mayor Olivia Chow and Toronto City Council just handed $350,000 in taxpayer money to Pride Toronto, despite the event's history of public nudity and indecent displays in full view of families and children.” According to Canadian Broadasting Corporation News, “Pride Toronto” will see its taxpayer funding hiked by 26 percent since fewer corporations want to promote sexual immorality. Toronto Mayor Chow condemned corporations that pulled funding from the group and suggested not shopping at Home Depot because the corporation is no longer funding the sexually perverted “Pride Toronto.” You can write Mayor Chow a polite 2-sentence email of objection: mayor_chow@toronto.ca. Or send a letter to: Mayor Olivia Chow, City Hall, 2nd Floor, 100 Queen St. W., Toronto, ON M5H 2N2 Canada. Previously, Adidas and Nissan Canada were considered “gold-level” sponsors, a designation given for those who donate at least $150,000 in cash or in-kind contributions. Venezuelan Evangelical Christians march for Jesus Thousands of Evangelical Christians mobilized across Venezuela during the March for Jesus, reports The Christian Post. The event featured preaching, public worship, biblical reflection, and prayers for Venezuela. According to the Latin Evangelical Alliance, this year's theme was: “Jesus, the nations belong to You.” Social media was filled with images of the march, which was held not only in cities but also in rural towns. Pastor José Piñero, executive director of the Evangelical Council of Venezuela, addressed the crowd in Cumaná with a message in Spanish focused on grace. I'll translate this 9-sentence clip in a moment. (Piñero speaks in Spanish) Pastor Piñero said, “We are here because this land cries out for hope. And that hope has a name. And His name is Jesus Christ! (cheers) “Today, we march with purpose, with conviction, with firm love. We don't march for ideologies. We don't march for human agendas. We don't march for political agendas. We don't march for sectarian agendas. We come with the eternal Word of God, the Bible.” Proverbs 30:5 says, “Every W ord of God is flawless; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.” Seventeen percent of Venezuela's population is comprised of Protestants and 71% is Catholic. Trump-Putin meeting in Anchorage today about ending Russo-Ukrainian War Anchorage, Alaska Mayor Suzanne LaFrance, an Independent, has announced that the city is “prepared and ready” for President Donald Trump's high-stakes meeting today with Russian President Vladimir Putin about ending the Russo-Ukrainian War. The meeting is set to be held at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. Trump seeks to extend federal D.C. takeover as ‘sanctuary city' policies put on ice In an effort to eradicate violent crime in our nation's capital, President Donald Trump is preparing to ask Congress to extend the 30-day limit on his federal takeover of Washington, D.C. When asked by a reporter Thursday if he intends to seek congressional approval to prolong his federalization of D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department, the president said this in reply. TRUMP: “Well, if it's a national emergency, we can do it without Congress, but we expect to be before Congress very quickly. We think the Democrats will not do anything to stop crime, but we think the Republicans will do it almost unanimously.” The president began moving federal law enforcement agents into D.C. late last week, following the vicious beating of a Department of Government Efficiency staffer, 19-year-old Edward Cristine, who intervened in a carjacking to protect the female victim. On August 11th, President Trump officially took federal control of the D.C. police department and quickly mobilized the D.C. National Guard. Between August 7 and the morning of August 13, the federal crackdown yielded 103 arrests on charges ranging from suspected homicide and narcotics to firearm offenses and even illegal immigration. Woman sues Marine who allegedly poisoned her drink with 10 abortion pills And finally, Liana Davis, a Texas woman, has become the latest victim of a disturbing case of the abortion kill pill being used against her, and she's taking her pain to court, reports The Washington Stand. Her lawsuit alleges that Christopher Cooprider, a 34-year-old U.S. Marine, impregnated her and repeatedly pressured her to “get rid” of the baby, despite her firm refusals. According to the federal lawsuit, Davis has accused Cooprider of dissolving at least 10 misoprostol pills into her drink, without her knowledge, at her Corpus Christi home while she was eight weeks pregnant with his child. It only took 30 minutes after drinking the spiked beverage for Davis to start “hemorrhaging and cramping.” She asked for his help, but Cooprider fled the scene and was unreachable. In a text at 12:30a.m., she wrote, “I am gushing blood. Please hurry.” But he never responded. Tragically, their baby died. The first half of Proverbs 28:13 describes Christopher Cooprider well. “He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.” The wrongful death lawsuit seeks unspecified damages from Cooprider and Aid Access, the company which sold the abortion kill pill to the randy Marine. According to NBC News, “The Corpus Christi Police Department said there are no active investigations involving Cooprider.” The Marine declined to comment as well. According to a new study from the Journal of the American Medical Association, Aid Access shipped 118,000 chemical abortion pill packs into the U.S. between July 2023 and September 2024. On X, Family Research Council President Tony Perkins wrote, “The Trump administration must take action now. 1 in 10 women suffer severe complications from the abortion pill. Traffickers and others use easy drug access to control women and kill unborn children. State laws are being trampled.” If you or a loved one has ingested the Abortion Kill Pill with regret, the baby can be saved during the first couple of days through a special progesterone protocol.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!What happens when a 12-year-old decides to stop living a lie and pursue her true passion? For Broadway dancer Valeria Yamin, it was the moment that changed everything.In this captivating conversation, Valeria takes us on her journey from Venezuela to Broadway, revealing the pivotal moments that shaped her remarkable career. From tearfully confessing to her father that she wanted to be a performer (not an eye doctor), to facing rejection from her dream school only to find her way there through an unexpected encounter – Valeria's story is a masterclass in resilience and authenticity.Currently performing in the original Broadway cast of "Just In Time" after four seasons as a Radio City Rockette, Valeria speaks candidly about battling impostor syndrome, particularly when transitioning from dance to singing. "I don't have as much singing experience and training as I do with my dancing," she admits. "When I'm singing, I feel a lack of tools." Yet rather than letting this hold her back, she embraced vulnerability and gradual growth, showing how even accomplished performers continue to evolve.The conversation takes a thoughtful turn as Valeria, now 25, reflects on gaining perspective in her career – moving from being "on the train" of non-stop performing to seeing her life from a "bird's eye view." This shift allows her to appreciate her journey while considering what colors and textures she wants to add next. Her approach to setbacks is equally enlightening: "Not now, maybe not ever, but not now, but maybe someday."Throughout the episode, Valeria's definition of living in the moment shines through – being "out of your head and in the world." Her story reminds us that authentic living requires courage, resilience, and the willingness to embrace both successes and redirections as part of our growth.Have you been putting your true passions on hold? Listen to this episode and find the courage to follow your heart, just as Valeria did when she decided to live her truth.If you are enjoying the show please subscribe, share and review!

ALEJANDRO GRAJAL Alejandro has lived and breathed the amazing natural ecosystems that make up our beloved planet. He is also an accomplished and prolific author that currently leads Woodland Park Zoo, one of the largest zoos in America with a legacy of 126 years and one of the most important cultural and most visited institutions in Seattle. He is internationally known for his vision to define a new relationship between humans and nature by helping to restore the deep, affective bond between people and animals. He advocates for zoos as the best community institutions to create a social movement for conservation, to foster science learning beyond the classroom, and to ensure that all people have access to nature, regardless of socioeconomic background. Before joining the zoo, Alejandro served as senior vice president for conservation, education and training at the Chicago Zoological Society/Brookfield Zoo, where he headed the Center for Conservation Leadership, oversaw field conservation and research programs for the Center for the Science of Animal Welfare, and supervised education programs. Previously, he had served as executive director of international programs for the National Audubon Society and director of Latin American programs at the Wildlife Conservation Society in New York. A noted author, Alejandro's publications include 45 peer-reviewed books, chapters, and scientific and popular articles covering topics which span the psychology of conservation, measuring the impact of environmental education, the sustainable use of natural resources and ornithology, among others. He leads the Climate Literacy Zoo Education Network (CliZEN), a coalition of zoological institutions, universities and NGOs. In 2016, Trustees of the Chicago Zoological Society awarded him the prestigious George B. Raab Medal for Conservation Leadership, recognizing his lifelong contributions to environmental and species protection, and inspiring future generations of scientists and leaders to tackle big questions about living harmoniously with all beings on the planet. In his spare time, he is an accomplished wildlife artist whose work has been exhibited in galleries in major cities.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the Democratic Party continues to strive to link President Trump to the Epstein case. Unfortunately, no details are being revealed because of the case's sensitive nature, not due to any attempt to hide information by Trump. It is impossible to force the grand jury to reveal this information, as that would infringe upon the privacy rights that are fundamental to every case during its jurisdiction. These so-called influencers are promoting the Epstein issue as a significant concern, yet a CNN poll conducted by Harry Enten shows that interest in the Epstein matter has waned considerably. in addition, we need to exercise extreme caution regarding whom we place our trust in moving forward, as there are numerous backstabbers, particularly when it involves attacking Trump. Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene serves as a prime example - many admired her, but the tables have turned as she is a deceitful and sleazy politician. Do we truly want individuals like her to represent us? Absolutely not. This is precisely why she is experiencing a significant decline in support due to her abhorrent actions, and yet she has the nerve to assert that she leads MAGA, which is utterly embarrassing. Also, Washington D.C is getting more dangerous. Just like in NYC and in California, crime is just as bad in Washington D.C.. Trump has a plan to help combat the crime that has been present and affecting the community. Moreover, individuals such as Sen Bernie Sanders pose a significant threat, and it is disheartening to see someone like Dana Bash fawning over Sanders, which is likely contributing to her declining ratings. Sanders endorses the actions of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, supports Zohran Mamdani's campaign for Mayor of NYC, and advocates for the erosion of our freedoms through Socialism and Marxism. Lastly, Benjamin Netanyahu isn't going to stop destroying Hamas, until Gaza is free of them. Netanyahu is determined to release all the hostages, and will not stop until they are all home and safe.

On "The Tara Show," the host discusses the president's federal crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., and his declaration of "Liberation Day." The show highlights the President's plan to start by ending cash bail and addressing what he refers to as the "third worldification" of American cities. He argues that these issues are not simply "soft on crime" but rather a manifestation of classic Marxism, which he claims is a deliberate attempt to undermine the justice system. The host points to D.C. laws, such as those that allow probation for shootings and treat 20-year-olds as juveniles, as evidence of this ideological shift. The episode features an interview clip with Gregory Pemberton, the head of the D.C. Police Union, who expresses his full support for the federal intervention. Pemberton states that D.C.'s crime is "out of control" and that the city council's past policies have "handcuffed police officers," leading to a severe shortage of personnel. The host also connects these domestic issues to international politics, drawing parallels between the D.C. situation and what he describes as the "Venezuela model" of governance, where the ruling party merges with criminal enterprises. The discussion concludes with a look at the president's broader strategy to combat these issues, including his handling of the upcoming Olympics in Los Angeles
La relación entre México y Estados Unidos está en su peor momento. Trump aprobó la intervención militar para atacar a cárteles mexicanos que fueron catalogados como terroristas y aplica lo mismo para Nicolás Maduro, presidente de Venezuela, por quien ofrecen una recompensa de 50 millones de dólares. ¿Cómo van a actuar o de qué manera? Nadie sabe. Y anunciaron un plan para Pemex que se oye bonito pero que no sirve de nada. Pemex está perdido y no tiene remedio.
En Bolivie, l'élection présidentielle a lieu dimanche prochain 17 août. La crise économique et les solutions proposées par les candidats ont été au cœur de la campagne électorale. L'une des propositions les plus en vogue : favoriser et développer l'élevage et l'agriculture dans l'est du pays. Un projet qui donne des ailes aux principaux intéressés, mais qui inquiète les communautés autochtones qui craignent un recul de leurs droits et une augmentation de la déforestation et des incendies. Reportage de Nils Sabin. De notre correspondant en Bolivie, À San Javier, dans l'est de la Bolivie, la campagne pour l'élection présidentielle du 17 août est particulièrement suivie. Cette petite ville de 15 000 habitants est la capitale laitière du département de Santa Cruz… Et les nombreux éleveurs locaux espèrent voir leur secteur favorisé par le prochain président. « Nous espérons, si Dieu le veut, qu'il y aura un changement et que le nouveau gouvernement aura en tête que la production et le progrès se trouvent ici », confie María Gloria Paz Tambare, présidente de l'association des éleveurs de San Javier. Malgré des lois environnementales très permissives, des prêts à taux bas, ou encore l'augmentation des permis de déforestation, l'agrobusiness, c'est-à-dire les secteurs de l'élevage et de l'agriculture à grande échelle, a le sentiment d'avoir été maltraité par les gouvernements de gauche de ces vingt dernières années. Selon Mauricio Tambare, éleveur rencontré dans son ranch à quelques kilomètres de San Javier, la Bolivie doit virer à droite et s'inspirer d'autres présidents conservateurs du continent : « On aime bien ce que fait Milei en Argentine, ce qu'a fait Bukele au Salvador. On ne demande pas que ce soit un copié-collé, mais que ce soit similaire à ce que fait Milei ». « Les candidats ont très peur de se fâcher avec l'agro-industrie bolivienne » Pour le secteur de l'élevage et de l'agriculture à grande échelle, la fin de la crise économique qui touche le pays — 17 % d'inflation depuis janvier, pénurie de carburant et de dollars — passe forcément par leur développement. « Pour nous, c'est très clair que si on ne nous permet pas d'exporter plus facilement, qu'on ne baisse pas les droits de douane, qu'on ne nous soutient pas, le pays va droit dans le mur », avance María Gloria Paz Tambare. Un message qui s'est peu à peu imposé dans la campagne électorale. Ainsi, Samuel Doria Medina et Jorge Quiroga, les deux candidats d'opposition en tête des sondages, proposent de faciliter les exportations de l'agrobusiness, de favoriser le développement technologique de ces secteurs et admettent qu'il faudra étendre la frontière agricole pour permettre leur développement. Et même chez les candidats se revendiquant de gauche, aucun n'ose remettre en cause cette idée. « Les candidats ont très peur de se fâcher avec l'agro-industrie bolivienne. Ils redoutent d'avoir une image qui va à l'encontre du secteur privé et d'être associés à des pays comme le Venezuela, l'Équateur ou Cuba », explique Stasiek Czaplicki, économiste environnemental, spécialisé sur la déforestation et les incendies. Et de rappeler que l'idée de résoudre la crise économique via le développement du secteur de l'agrobusiness n'est pas nouvelle : « Ça a déjà été fait dans les années 1980, dans les années 1950 et à d'autres moments de l'Histoire bolivienne ». Augmentation probable de la déforestation Mais du côté de la Centrale indigène Paikoneka, qui regroupe une soixantaine de communautés autochtones à San Javier, ces propositions inquiètent. « Nous avons analysé les programmes des différents candidats et il n'y en a pas un en faveur des droits des peuples indigènes ou de l'environnement », s'alarme Brian Baca Talamas, coordinateur des pompiers volontaires de l'organisation indigène. En effet, renforcer la place de l'élevage et de l'agriculture à grande échelle dans l'économie revient à continuer à agrandir la frontière agricole dans l'est de la Bolivie. En clair, cela favorisera la déforestation et les incendies alors qu'en 2024, le pays était le deuxième pays au monde avec le plus de forêts primaires au monde, derrière le Brésil, et que les incendies ont ravagé plus de 12 millions d'hectares, l'équivalent de quatre fois la superficie de la Suisse. Des conséquences écologiques vues comme des dommages collatéraux par les candidats. « S'il y a contradiction entre l'environnement et la production, je choisirai la production », a ainsi déclaré Samuel Doria Medina fin juin. Quant à Jorge Quiroga, il est rappelé dans la section environnement de son programme qu'une extension de la frontière agricole sera forcément nécessaire. « Tout le monde veut des solutions à la crise. Les candidats et une grande partie de la population sont prêts à voir une dégradation écologique si cela permet une amélioration économique », analyse Stasiek Czaplicki. L'année dernière, une vingtaine de communautés de l'organisation ont été touchées par les incendies historiques qui ont ravagé le pays. L'une de leurs peurs est que les incendies continuent de s'aggraver si des mesures favorables à l'agrobusiness sont prises. Pour s'y opposer, la Centrale indigène Paikoneka prépare déjà l'après-élection. « Nous sommes tous unis, les peuples des terres basses, pour qu'après le 17 août, nous fassions une manifestation pour exiger que l'on respecte nos territoires indigènes et nos droits », indique María Suárez Macoñó, l'une des dirigeantes de l'organisation. Entre crise économique, mesures d'austérité pour y mettre fin et recul écologique, les prochaines années s'annoncent difficiles pour la population bolivienne.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 3: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Hey! While Putin is here in Alaska so Trump can kiss his fanny, let's arrest him on behalf of the International Criminal Court and its member states Canada and Mexico who want to try him for kidnapping Ukrainian children and lying that they're orphans and forcibly converting them into Russians! The willingness to let this scum set foot on American territory is all part of Trump's desperate need to win an award. A major award. A major award like the one the father wanted in the movie "A Christmas Story." He wants what his idiot press secretary Karoline Leavitt calls "The Noble Peace Prize." He'll do anything to get it. Because he needs it to distract you from Trumpstein. Happily Jayvee Vance is back to remind you all that the Epstein files contain all kinds of dirt about Democratic billionaire politicians of 20 years ago. Of whom Trump was one. Registered Democrat. Oops. And it turns out that meeting Vance and the FBI and DOJ chiefs and the White House Chief of Staff DIDN'T have at the VP's residence about Epstein WITHOUT Trump? They had the Trumpstein meeting. They just had it somewhere else. And once again: why did they have it WITHOUT TRUMP? And now Trump is trying to distract by demanding all those DC homeless people who read Truth Social move out of town or else he'll...make them look at his new gold ballroom. And oh by the way as the leading universities continue to fold before Trump's dictatorial censorship and threat, somebody's standing up to him: Stanford's student-run newspaper is suing him for violating the 1st Amendment rights of its staffers. The leaders of all of the El Foldo Universities (Columbia, Penn, UCLA) should resign and let the students lead the resistance. B-Block (29:17) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Kristi Noem is upset South Park made her look like a cartoon. Well, MORE like a cartoon. I need to apologize for Mike Huckabee again insulting England. And Pam Bondi just offered you $50,000,000 if you can tell her where Nicolas Maduro is. He's in Venezuela. Can we each have our 50 mill now? C-Block (41:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: It's the 37-year anniversary of Gretzky Week! My greatest scoop, the one I did the least work on of any story I ever covered. The sources literally phoned it in to me. The day Wayne Gretzky was traded to the Los Angeles Kings and I was the first on television with it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today’s episode of the Cops and Writers Podcast, I have with me Author and Retired DEA Agent Wes Tabor. There was so much to unpack about his incredible career in law enforcement and his accomplishments off duty that this is my first three-part interview. Part two of the interview that will go live next Sunday, and part three with be released the next day on Monday. Honestly, I could have talked to Wes all day. I will definitely have him back on the show in the future. Here's a quick bio of just some of Wes’s accomplishments. Wes became a Hernando County Sheriff’s Deputy in 1988. As a deputy, Wes served as a S.W.A.T. lead, having completed the FBI S.W.A.T. school in 1995. Wes was a Defensive Tactics Instructor, anti-crime and property Detective, and earned the Florida Medal of Valor in 1996 for his heroism by disregarding his own safety, running into an apartment fire, saving multiple lives, and Mittens the cat. In 1998, he was hired by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Wes had a 23-year career with the DEA and has been stationed in Field Divisions such as: St. Louis, Miami, Chicago, D.C., Los Angeles, and internationally in cities such as Guatemala City, Guatemala, Caracas, Venezuela, Cartagena, Colombia, and Bogota, Colombia. During this time, he was representing the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in positions such as: supervisory special agent, country attaché, assistant country attaché, Deputy Section Chief, Assistant to the Global Deputy Chief of Operations, and Assistant Special Agent in Charge. Wes was paralyzed in an auto accident where a drunk driver and career criminal had been at fault. Fortunately, he recovered from his spinal cord injury (C5/6) fracture and went back to being a DEA agent. The suspect later absconded and was on the run for 23 years, only to be captured in 2024. He was given probation for 6 months by a local judge in Minnesota. From 2012-2015, Wes was assigned to the Central Intelligence Agency as an Assignee to various locations in the Western Hemisphere, conducting various classified activities on behalf of the DEA while embedded with the CIA. He has worked with some of the most prestigious law enforcement and military agencies, conducting operations and training modules, with the FBI, Secret Service, Defense Intelligence Service, US Army Special Forces, and Navy Seals. As a DEA agent, rising through the ranks to Assistant Special Agent in Charge in Los Angeles, he was the division's Strike Force Commander, where he oversaw global money-laundering investigations, High Value Mexican Cartel Investigation, and led his teams in pursuit of some of the largest cases on the globe. I told you there’s a lot to Wes’s story! Today’s episode is more focused on his beginnings and his heroism. We will get to more incredible stuff in the next two episodes. In today’s episode, we discuss: · Thank you to Chris Feistl for the intro. · An unlikely role model growing up. · The positive influence of the police explorer program on him as a youth. · His time in Florida as a Sheriff’s Deputy, working in SWAT, the detective bureau, and as a D.A.A.T. instructor. · Running into a fire and saving multiple people, and Mittens the cat. · Receiving the Florida Medal of Valor for his heroic actions. · Social media and law enforcement today. · What he sees as the weaknesses or strengths in law enforcement training today.

Airport security is a big thing right now. The marathon show is not fresh news. It's time to focus on what the President is telling you. Where is that CCP asset Haspel? She is confirmed as one crazy psycho bitch. In life you make your own opportunities. The J6 committee heard plenty but just sat there. Even Danish Intel was involved. Roger Stone is an inside player. Mike Benz is not always accurate, but he has real value. The Damazean (sp) family group is critical to watch. If our girl is working you, then run. LEMD.com is the bomb. The NAD has been a big help. Who's looking for clarity without distractions? The olfactory system is the only exposed part of the human brain. 7-OH is worse than heroin, and it's in the kid's drinks. Academic blinders hurt us all. With all today's pushed ignorance, we really need a true media.
Andy Reid says Patrick Mahomes will start in the first pre season game at Arizona Saturday night, even as most other teams are not playing their QB1. They tried it in Indy and lost their starting quaterback to injury right away. In LA, the Chargers made their left tackle the highest paid lineman in the game last week. Then, Rashawn Slater suffers a season ending injury. This game is brutal. The Royals wrap up a wicked road trip beginning with a crazy good pitching matchup at Minnesota Friday night. Greg Gutfeld from Fox News appears on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The United States really wants the dictator in Venezuela out. A Joe biden advisor says they declined a cognitive test for the former prez. A fake nurse is caught in Florida. And our song of the week is 50 years old and "voiced" by Hollywood's biggest legend ever. It is perfect this week after a member of Congress announced she's a Guatemalan first and American second.
We're starting to hear the horror stories from some of the Venezuelan men who the Trump Administration deported to the Salvadoran super-max prison known as CECOT. Many of the migrants, who were abruptly released and sent back to Venezuela last month as part of a prisoner exchange with the U.S., allege they suffered physical, psychological and sexual abuse during their detention. At least one man is trying to sue the U.S. government over his time in CECOT. And then there's Andry José Hernández Romero, the gay makeup artist whose story garnered national attention after his arrest. He says he faced constant harassment in the prison because of his sexual orientation. Melissa Shepard, director of legal services at the Immigrant Defenders Law Center and one of Romero's legal representatives, joins us to talk his story and others who were detained at CECOT.And in headlines: President Donald Trump suggested he may soon meet in person with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Texas Democrats were forced to evacuate their Illinois hotel because of a fake bomb threat, and the Department of Homeland Security lifted age limits on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.Show Notes:Check out Immigrant Defenders Law Center – www.immdef.org/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
