This Week: The College Board casts its lot with the most regressive, racist actors in our society by stripping race from consideration in its National Recognition Program. The likely outcome of this decision will be a reduction in scholarship funds for Black, Latino, and Native American students, and a shifting of those funds to overrepresented Asian and white students. Here we go again. Plus, in “This Week in American Fascism in Education” the Supreme Court lets stand a lower court ruling upholding schools' right to stop students from wearing  “only two genders” t-shirts, and Trump threatens to strip CA of billions in federal education funding over trans athletes.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Korea's brief but significant period as an empire as it moved from the 500-year-old dynastic Joseon monarchy towards modernity. It was in October 1897 that King Gojong declared himself Emperor, seizing his chance when the once-dominant China lost to Japan in the First Sino-Japanese War. The king wanted to have the same status as the neighbouring Russian, Chinese and Japanese Emperors, to shore up a bid for Korean independence and sovereignty when the world's major powers either wanted to open Korea up to trade or to colonise it.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, rouge federal district judges are issuing nationwide injunctions against President Trump's voter-supported policies. These judges overstep their constitutional authority, seizing power from elected branches by imposing policy preferences disguised as legal rulings, particularly on immigration and executive actions.  The one big beautiful bill passed by the House would limit judges' ability to enforce contempt citations and would require plaintiffs to post financial bonds for injunctions. Afterward, the Trump administration's Middle East trip was a globalist foreign policy, which involved active engagement with other nations. Interventionism is different from globalism; they do overlap but aren't identical. Interventionism is negotiating peace between Ukraine and Russia or engaging with Iran.  Also, who is the senior Trump administration official who keeps leaking to Axios and driving an intentional wedge between America and Israel? They're undermining Trump and the purported purpose of the negotiations with Iran.  NSC, DOJ, and the FBI need to open up a leak investigation. Later, Trump's actions against Harvard are patriotic and long overdue. Harvard and similar institutions promote Marxism and Islamism, discriminating against Asian students (as ruled by the Supreme Court), and historically providing cover for Nazis in the 1930s. Cutting federal and state subsidies and urging major donors to reconsider support is the way to address these issues. In addition, Gov Ron DeSantis calls in to discuss Convention of States movement. He explained that Congress's failures, driven by politicians' reelection incentives, require structural changes like term limits and a balanced budget requirement. DeSantis dismissed fears of a runaway convention, noting that amendments need three-fourths of states to ratify, ensuring only popular reforms pass. DeSantis also explains that cutting a deal with Iran is dangerous. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

AMEX's strategic location benefits from existing infrastructure, electricity access, and proximity to established communities, reducing development costs and operational complexity.Dan Noone, CEO of G2 Goldfields, announced his company's 3 million ounce resource in Ghana at approximately 3 grams per tonne, with additional discoveries at the Oko North area currently under exploration. G2 operates adjacent to significant mining activity, including recent acquisitions by G Mining and AngloGold's 15% regional investment, which has validated the district's potential and enhanced investor confidence in Ghana's mining jurisdiction.Both executives reported exceptionally positive investor reception at the recent Canaccord conference, with fully booked meeting schedules and strong institutional interest from North American, Australian, and Asian investors. Market sentiment reflects bullish expectations for gold prices exceeding $3,000, driven by structural changes including central bank purchasing and global currency diversification strategies.The companies pursue different strategic approaches: AMEX focuses on a dual-path strategy combining near-term production through bulk sampling and toll milling with continued exploration, while G2 Goldfields emphasizes resource expansion before potential merger and acquisition opportunities.Both executives emphasized the importance of high-grade resources in current market conditions, noting that quality deposits maintain profitability across various gold price scenarios. The financing environment remains selective, favoring advanced projects with proven management teams and substantial resources, while access to capital remains constrained for less developed opportunities.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

S&P futures are pointing to a strong open today, up +1.5%. European equity markets are mostly higher in early trades with the FTSE 100 outperforming. Asian markets closed mostly lower, though Japan and Hong Kong saw modest gains. EU-US trade talks have intensified after President Trump delayed imposing 50% tariffs on EU imports, providing a 30-day window for negotiations. EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič engaged with U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick and Trade Representative Greer, signaling a shift toward a cooperative tone. The EU may consider concessions, such as increased purchases of U.S. LNG and agricultural products. Companies Mentioned: Chevron, Trump Media, MAC Copper

In 1889, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the now infamous Chinese Exclusion Act, which prohibited Chinese laborers from entering the country. Writing for the majority, Justice Stephen J. Field characterized Chinese migrants as “strangers in the land.” New Yorker editor Michael Luo says that label persists today, even as more than 22 million people of Asian descent now reside in the U.S. In a new history book, Luo tells the stories of 19th and 20th century Chinese migrants and analyzes the long tail of contemporary anti-Asian racism and violence while championing those who fought against it. We listen back. Guests: Michael Luo, executive editor, The New Yorker; author, “Strangers in the Land: Exclusion, Belonging, and the Epic Story of the Chinese in America” Learn more about your ad choices.

Did you know that if you only look at your charts at the close of a candle, it's going to massively improve your trading performance and also massively reduce the amount of time that you spend looking at the charts. So let's talk about that very important topic and more right now. Hey there, Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here, the owner of The Forex Trading Coach with video on podcast number 589. When should you look at the charts? So a lot of people struggle when it comes to knowing when they should be looking at their charts and what time of day that should be, what time frame charts to look at, what pairs, what markets, etc.. Is it the European session, the London session? You know, the Asian session, the US session. What is it? And they get very, very confused with all that happening. And they really don't know when to look at charts. So as a result of that they tend to spend far too much time looking at the charts, waiting for this pip to move up and down, or that line to cross over that line or a dot to appear because it doesn't work. When we look for a new trade at The Forex Trading Coach. So what can you do to simplify things? Well, very easy really, the way that we tried here at the Forex Trading Coach and the way that I've traded now for over 20 years is I only look for a potential new trade upon the close of a candle. So, you know when the candle closes, because the market opens each new day at 5 p.m. New York time. So if you were trading, let's say, four hour charts, you know that at 5 p.m. New York time, the new day starts. So you know that four hours later from then, which will be 9 p.m. New York time, the four hour charts will change over. And therefore, you know, if you add four more hours to that becomes 1:00 Am, 5:00 Am, etc. How easy it is to know when the four hour charts change over. Now, obviously in a day this is one day the candle and you know when it changes. Obviously within the 24 hour time period there are two 12 hour charts. Guess what? There are 5 p.m. and 5 a.m. New York time. You know, there are three eight hour charts. There are four six hour charts. There are six four hour charts. Very, very easy to do this. . Only look for a trade at the close of a candle.    And so if you look at the close of a candle, a number of things happen from a simplistic point of view. You know when to go and look at your charts. What does that do for you as a trader? Well, it gives you a little bit of time. You can look five minutes prior and you can scan through the charts, and you know that when they change over, if there are any suitable trade set ups, when they change over, the candle closes, nothing else moves. You can make your decision quite easily. It takes a lot of emotion out of trading because you're not. They're scared about moving, you know, missing every moving pip up and down. You're not there watching this line cross over that line. And of course they keep moving. And so when the candle closes, nothing else around it, whatever indicator you're using or horizontal level, nothing changes from that point onwards. So it makes it very easy to see.

Underneath every addiction is a deeper ache—and a surprising path to healing. Bestselling author, therapist, and Episcopal priest Ian Morgan Cron joins Dan Allender and Rachael Clinton Chen to share insights from his newest book, The Fix: How the Twelve Steps Offer a Surprising Path of Transformation for the Well-Adjusted, the Down-and-Out, and Everyone In Between. Ian invites us to reconsider the Twelve Steps—not just as a recovery tool for addicts, but as a grace-filled path of spiritual awakening for anyone longing for freedom, connection, and intimacy with God. This conversation is for everyone—not just those who identify as alcoholics or addicts. As Ian says, these steps offer healing to people who struggle with all kinds of attachments and compulsions: workaholism, people-pleasing, tech and porn addiction, codependency, control, food, spending, approval, sports betting… the list goes on. Ian points out that most of us are poly-addicted, caught in multiple patterns that disconnect us from God, ourselves, and each other. So this isn't about comparing struggles or measuring severity. It's about asking: Do I want to be free? Do I want to live with more honesty, grace, and surrender?  Whether or not you think you “need” the Steps, this conversation is a compassionate, humorous, and deeply spiritual invitation to let go of self-reliance and move toward the healing you were made for. Listen to Part 1 now, and be sure to come back next week for Part 2.

Built across a large part of the Asian continent on Terra, the Palace is divided into the Inner and Outer Palaces. The Palace is built to truly monumental proportions: seen from orbit, it consists of connected kilometers-high monolithic and pyramidal structures, marked with landing pads and studded with defense weaponry. The palace itself is the seat of the Adeptus Terra, but is overseen by the Adeptus Custodes.Not only is the area of the Imperial Palace enormous, its macro-habs and space ports break through the atmosphere and rise into the void, and its sub-levels dig deep into Terra's holy bedrock, in some places reaching a depth of hundreds of miles below the surface. Its vaults, corridors, fastnesses, plazas, and chambers are so multitudinous that no single record remains to list them all, and the techno-urbanic serf tribes, clan holdings, and societal sub-nations that dwell within its walls could populate entire star systems.Support the show
