This episode began as an investigation into Sigmund Freud, Edward Bernays, propaganda, psychoanalysis, and the hidden machinery through which modern perception management came to be. But somewhere along the way, it became something much more personal. In Starlight Sickness, Kelly traces the strange lineage between Freud's abandonment of the seduction theory, Bernays's engineering of consent, and the ways power moves harm out of view by relocating it into the minds of the harmed. From the origins of modern public relations to the hall of mirrors inside ufology, this episode asks what happens when the tools we use to interpret reality also become the tools used to obscure it. How do we practice discernment without losing trust in our own perception? How do we make room for complexity without allowing complexity to become fog? And what does accountability look like when the story you were living inside begins to collapse? In light of recent allegations against her former best friend and creative partner Jay Christopher King, Kelly turns the same questions back on herself, beginning the process of untangling what happened, what she believed, what she may have gotten wrong, and what this community is owed now. This is an episode about gaslighting, trauma, consent engineering, ufology, and the terrifying difficulty of finding solid ground in a world built to manage perception. Topics explored: Sigmund Freud | Edward Bernays | propaganda | psychoanalysis | gaslighting | consent engineering | perception management | public relations | the unconscious | repression | seduction theory | the Oedipus complex | Jeffrey Masson | Freud Archives | Emma Eckstein | Wilhelm Fliess | institutional betrayal | therapeutic language | expert authority | trauma | memory | interpretation | accountability | narrative control | invisible government | torches of freedom | United Fruit Company | Guatemala coup | ufology | experiencer communities | anomalous experience | sexual trauma | abduction narratives | vulnerability and power | Jay Christopher King | The Experiencer Group | spiritual abuse | trust and betrayal | epistemic instability | discernment | reality testing | | truth and coherence | symbols and meaning | systems of control | manufactured consent | moral injury | the hall of mirrors Referenced in this Episode: Addressing the Allegations Against My Former Creative Partner, Jay Christopher King Starlight Sickness — Helico Tele Propaganda — Edward Bernays (1928) The Engineering of Consent — Edward Bernays (1947) The Aetiology of Hysteria — Sigmund Freud (1896) The Interpretation of Dreams — Sigmund Freud (1900) Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality — Sigmund Freud (1905) The Assault on Truth: Freud's Suppression of the Seduction Theory — Jeffrey Masson (1984) Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition — David Bakan (1958) Trust Me, I'm Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator — Ryan Holiday (2012) I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell — Tucker Max (2006) Support The Show Patreon: inquirywithkellychase.comSubstack: inquirywithkellychase.substack.com Connect with Kelly Website: kellychase.mediaX: @kellychasemediaInstagram: @kellychasemedia TIMESTAMPS 05:27 Propaganda and The True Ruling Power 09:20 Freudian Ick10:58 Jeffrey Masson, Heretic 13:18 Sigmund Freud and The Source of the Nile 17:49 Wilhelm Fliess, A Passionate Friendship 19:55 Emma Eckstein and The Stronger Sex 22:06 A Little Sleight of Hand24:21 The Oedipus Complex and The Nucleus of Neuroses 32:02 The Baby and the Bathwater 33:21 Trust the Experts 34:44 You Can't Do Anything With This Information 37:54 The Torches of Freedom 40:31 The Coup 43:11 A Koan 48:15 The Abstract Becomes Horrifyingly Personal 52:21 Responding to Jay Christopher King's Statement 01:01:03 Fall 2023 01:05:21 The Epistemic Black Boxes of Ufology Learn more about your ad choices.

Dan is joined by Strict Scrutiny's Leah Litman to talk about this week's big Supreme Court decisions giving Trump the right to kick out Haitian immigrants and deny asylum claims for people stopped just shy of the American border, as well as a ruling — with some surprising ideological crossover — tossing out claims against Monsanto for how it labels Roundup, its popular weedkiller. Then Dan and Leah discuss all the major decisions still to come this week, on birthright citizenship, trans rights, and more. Lastly — rage warning! — Leah reacts to Susan Collins's claim that her vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh *didn't* have an impact on Roe v. Wade getting overturned.For a transcript of an episode of Pod Save America, please email transcripts@crooked.com.
The Supreme Court hands the Trump administration a major immigration victory, but Mike asks what happens when cities openly refuse to follow the law. Plus, the growing backlash against Republican leaders over the SAVE Act, the Scott Pressler controversy in South Dakota, and why Mike says the biggest threat to the America First agenda may be coming from inside the GOP.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Understanding "Fighting Words" in the LawJust tackled a great listener question on our latest Q&A segment of Lawyer Talk! The topic? "Fighting words"—and whether using particularly nasty insults can actually justify or excuse an assault in court.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:Assault & Fighting Words: As Steve Palmer explains, simply hearing "fighting words" rarely justifies assault charges being thrown out. The answer is typically no, though there are rare exceptions. Steve Palmer details this at 00:28.Supreme Court Precedent: The famous Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire case addressed whether some words are so inflammatory that they lose First Amendment protection. While the Supreme Court upheld criminalizing certain "fighting words," later cases have narrowed this doctrine in favor of free speech. More insights from Steve Palmer at 01:19.First Amendment in Schools: Even students don't “check their constitutional rights at the door.” Tinker v. Des Moines affirmed that students retain free speech rights at school—an important point for both educators and parents (Steve Palmer at 02:19).FAQ'sWhat are "fighting words," and how does U.S. law treat them?"Fighting words" are certain highly offensive words that the Supreme Court has ruled can sometimes be criminalized, though most speech — even insulting speech — is generally protected by the First Amendment. Steve Palmer explains that while early cases allowed some restrictions, more recent rulings have limited the fighting words doctrine and protected most speech.Can using extremely offensive language legally justify assault charges being dropped?According to Steve Palmer, assault is generally not legally justified by the use of fighting words alone. While some rare cases might see an assault charge affected by the presence of extreme insults, most of the time the law does not excuse physical actions based on words.Do students have First Amendment rights in public schools according to Supreme Court rulings?Steve Palmer cites the Supreme Court case Tinker v. Des Moines, clarifying that students in public schools do retain their First Amendment rights. This means students don't lose constitutional protections to free speech simply by entering a school building.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

Whoever therefore resolves to be God's servants, must make account to be his soldiers also; and whilst with Nehemiah's followers, with one hand they perform the works of their callings and Christianity, they must with the other hand hold their weapons to repel their spiritual enemies, who continually labor to hinder the Lords buildings: for no sooner do we become friends to God, but presently Satan assaults us.
Cape Fear (1991) Review | Scorsese, De Niro & a Disturbing Thriller (Vintage Cinema Review)Dave, Matt, and Zap welcome viewers to the Vintage Cinema Review and discuss Matt's pick, Martin Scorsese's R-rated thriller Cape Fear (1991), noting it's a remake of a 1962 original with cameos, a 128-minute runtime, and strong box office against a $35M budget. They cover the cast led by Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange, and Juliette Lewis, then recap the plot: ex-con Max Cady stalks attorney Sam Bowden over withheld evidence, escalates with violence against Laurie Davis, manipulates Bowden's teenage daughter, and pushes the family to a climactic houseboat showdown on the Cape Fear River.

They explore the deep, sometimes invisible ways that capitalism disrupts the planet's fundamental life cycles –– from soil depletion and artificial fertilizers to the carbon cycle driving global warming.Ian traces the concept of “metabolic rift” from Marx and Engels through a long socialist lineage, making the case that ecological critique has always been central to the Marxist tradition. (Indeed, some Marxists might argue that “eco-” is an unnecessary qualifier; “socialism” is enough!)Steve brings up the MMT basics challenging the austerity narrative that blocks ecological reconstruction. He reminds us that the state, as the currency issuer, can de-commodify the essentials of life, namely food, water, housing, and healthcare. However, as Ian bluntly states: “The problem is that it's not our government, it's their government.” Reformism and electoralism are dead ends.While listeners may disagree with some of Ian's interpretations of Soviet history, those comments do not negate the episode's compelling analysis that capitalism's DNA demands endless accumulation and profit. Combating the ecological crisis is inseparable from the struggle to overcome capitalism.Ian Angus is founder and editor of the online ecosocialist journal, Climate & Capitalism and a founding member of the Global Ecosocialist Network. Among his many books are The War Against the Commons: Dispossession and Resistance in the Making of Capitalism (Monthly Review Press, 2023), A Redder Shade of Green: Intersections of Science and Socialism (Monthly Review Press, 2017) and Facing the Anthropocene: Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System (Monthly Review Press, 2016).

Tim and Nate debate third-person cover shooters (Nate's not a fan of the mechanic; Tim loves the destroyed world, underground critters, and chainsaw guns). Fable – New cinematic trailer confirms Haley Atwell (Agent Carter) as the long-teased villain Isabel. Jack of Blades gets a surprise tease, hinting at multiple villains. A 30-minute full gameplay video dropped days later showing a talking pig quest, romance options, UI, and systems in action. Delayed to February 23, 2027 (Xbox, PC, Game Pass, and still coming to PS5) to polish and avoid GTA 6. Tim is very excited; Nate is cautiously optimistic but holding judgment on open-world RPG scope. Halo: Campaign Evolved (July 28, Xbox, PC, PS5, Game Pass) – UE5 remake of Halo 1 with core Blam engine (physics/game logic pulled from Halo: Reach) for that authentic "spongy" feel. New Sergeant Johnson voice actor, prequel missions (Assault on the Control Room & Silent Cartographer) locked behind the main campaign, vehicle jacking, new weapons (energy sword, fuel rod, brute spiker), sprint, clambering, 40+ skulls, and a "Remix Mode" for wild enemy swaps/randomization. 4-player co-op (local split-screen + online). Previews are extremely positive; limited collector's editions sold out fast. Tim is all-in on the respectful-yet-improved remake treatment and wants to share it with new players. Other Xbox news: Persona 6 trailer reactions (mixed/underwhelmed), new Spyro game from Toys for Bob (Tom Kenny returning as Spyro, Dragonflight mechanics), Clockwork Revolution (InXile steampunk RPG, Xbox ecosystem exclusive vibes), S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-era title getting Unreal Engine help from The Coalition + Grounded-style cross-world system, new dark Metro game from the Ukrainian team (still developing in wartime conditions), Resonance (Plague Tale legacy?), Minecraft Dungeons 2, new Senua Hellblade-universe action game (Nate loved the first, mixed on the second; Tim was never a fan but this one looks more classic Ninja Theory), Crazy Taxi World Tour (2027, pure arcade nostalgia), and Castlevania: Belmont's Curse (Oct 15 – Tim is already hooked into his veins; Switch 2 version delayed, which upsets him).

Larry delves into the world of election integrity and the COVID vaccine controversy. He discusses the California's dysfunctional voting system and the need for the Save America Act to ensure the integrity of our elections. Meanwhile, Senator Ron Johnson joins the show to reveal a stunning report on the FDA's handling of COVID vaccine safety signals, exposing a potential cover-up that has left many Americans outraged. The senator shares his preliminary report on the FDA's handling of COVID vaccine safety signals, revealing a disturbing pattern of ignoring warning signs and downplaying the risks associated with the vaccine. Larry also talked to Senator Marsha Blackburn about her Election Security Partnership Act, which aims to incentivize states to check their voter rolls against the SAVE system to ensure that only eligible citizens are voting. The senator shares her concerns about the Democrats' efforts to undermine election integrity and the importance of protecting the right to vote for American citizens.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how the assault on Hill 400 on December 7, 1944, was characterized by surviving Rangers as their "longest day," surpassing even D-Day in intensity. Before the attack, Len Lomell conducted a reconnaissance patrol, determining that the only viable path to the summit was a straight frontal assault across an open field the size of a football stadium. Tensions rose when a new officer ordered a scout into the field in broad daylight; the man was immediately shot, enraging the seasoned Rangers who viewed the order as a suicide mission. When the signal for the main assault was finally given, Dog and Fox companies sprang from a sunken road like a "coiled spring." Approximately 120 Rangers charged across the open field with fixed bayonets, screaming "rebel yells" and shouting "Hi-Ho Silver" to intimidate the defenders. They ran directly into the teeth of MG42 fire, bayonetting and shooting Germansas they stormed up the steep incline. The speed and ferocity of the charge overwhelmed the German defenders at the base and on the slopes. Upon reaching the summit, the Rangers captured a massive observation bunker and immediately began digging shallow foxholes to prepare for the inevitable counterattacks. Though they had taken the hill, they remained unaware of its true significance to the German High Command or the scale of the firestorm that was about to descend upon them. (6)1944
Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts how between 7:20 and 8:00 a.m., the Rangers began their assault using rocket-propelled grappling hooks to fire wet ropes up the 90-foot cliffs. The climb was conducted under intense fire from German MG42machine guns and "potato masher" hand grenades lobbed from above. Sergeant Len Lomell was shot through the side during the ascent but continued to the summit, which he described as looking like the cratered surface of the moon due to the preceding bombardments. The Rangers utilized the craters and ruins for cover, fighting through a maze of tunnels and bunkers against defenders who remained entrenched in an underground labyrinth. Upon reaching the designated casemates, the Rangers discovered the Germans had moved the massive guns to an apple orchard 700 yards inland, leaving telephone poles in their place as decoys. Acting on his own initiative, Lomell followed tire tracks leading away from the casemates and discovered the guns hidden under nets in the orchard. Remarkably, the German gun crews were assembled nearby, listening to an officer's orders and leaving the weapons briefly unguarded. Lomell and Sergeant Jack Kuhn used thermite grenades to melt the gears of the guns, rendering them inoperable. Through the efforts of these two men, the primary objective of the entire D-Day mission was accomplished, succeeding where hundreds of bombers and heavy naval guns had failed. (3)1944

Episode #426 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth shine a spotlight on the career of Nobuko Toda, a composer whose work has quietly shaped some of gaming's biggest franchises while rarely receiving the recognition afforded to many of her contemporaries. After studying at Berklee College of Music and joining Konami in the early 2000s, Toda became an integral part of the company's music team, contributing to everything from Metal Gear and Pro Evolution Soccer to lesser-known projects that showcased her incredible versatility. Throughout the episode, we explore the many sides of Toda's career, from her early Konami years through her later work. Along the way, we celebrate a composer whose music can be intimate, unsettling, heroic, reflective, and exhilarating, often within the span of a single soundtrack. From iconic franchises to hidden gems, this Composer Appreciation episode is dedicated to an artist whose contributions to video game music deserve far more attention than they've traditionally received. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share! Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, Jeff & Mike.

Ralph speaks to independent investigative journalist Lylla Younes to discuss her reporting on Israel's assault on southern Lebanon. Then, Ralph and media studies professor Robin Andersen discuss her new book "The Complicit Lens: US Media Coverage of the Genocide in Gaza."Lylla Younes is a Beirut-based journalist. She is an editor at The Public Source, and a frequent contributor to Drop Site News.What we've seen in the past several days is really an escalation of what's been happening since March 2nd (when the US-Israeli assault on Iran took off) and then obviously the ceasefire… What we see is a campaign of ethnic cleansing from the Israeli military in Lebanon. And that has looked like the Gaza playbook sped up, you could say, in southern Lebanon. It's looked like invading and bulldozing homes; tearing up roads; destroying, booby-trapping, and detonating entire villages and cultural sites. It's looked like targeting medical personnel—killing, at this point, over 100 since March 2nd (this is in addition to the 130 or so who were killed in the last round of fighting in 2024). In addition to that, the targeting and killing of journalists who are reporting near the border. I think it's important to note there's practically no one left in the border region. Having a press vest on and a microphone and a camera is basically like having a target on your back at this point.Lylla YounesThe pager attack was, I think it's fair to say, one of the darker days of Lebanese history. I think regardless of people's feelings about Hezbollah, the fact that you are setting men alight literally in the streets in cities all across the country, killing children, maiming children—the mark of the pager attack was that these pagers that Hezbollah members were carrying exploded in their faces and blinded them. So you have thousands of blinded people, people missing fingers. And again, some of these are relatives of Hezbollah members. It was a massive event that overwhelmed hospitals across the country. And it also marked the beginning of that 66 day [period] of escalated fighting. And it showed how deeply infiltrated Hezbollah was in an intelligence capacity. This was quite a feat by the Israeli Mossad.Lylla YounesRobin Andersen is professor emerita of media studies at Fordham University and an award-winning author of a dozen single- and co-authored books. She serves as a Project Censored Judge, and contributes to the annual State of the Free Press. She is on the Board of Directors of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), where she also writes regularly, and is an Izzy Award Judge for the Park Center for Independent Media. Her latest book is The Complicit Lens: US Media Coverage of Israel's Genocide in Gaza.In my book, I look at the directives of the New York Times and CNN, and then I compare it to media coverage. And I found that, in fact, these were the ways [the directives that were passed down] in which the media was presenting the genocide in Gaza…But in terms of the Israeli directives, CNN was putting their copy through their Jerusalem bureau and the IDF was looking at it. The New York Times was simply going along with Israeli talking points. So we did find that. And the real telling part was when they finally did say that Israel dropped the bomb, it was only when Israel had admitted—or put their propaganda to the next level, which was to claim that they had killed a Hamas commander or a fighter or somebody involved in Hamas. And we found that also in the BBC. So those were direct things that came from Israel. And abandoning their journalistic mission, the US media was basically following the dictates of a foreign government.Robin AndersenTheir form of censorship was basically murder. They knew that as the genocide wore on (and Israel controlled the narrative for a very long time, and then it started to collapse) as over time we saw on the internet, we saw on our handheld devices the documentation of what was happening [they'd lose control of the narrative]. And so in a total propaganda environment, what we have to have is no noise, no opposition, no alternative information. And Israel really was trying to achieve a total propaganda environment. It wasn't enough that they had establishment in legacy media and those media were allowing outside influences to direct their editorial decisions. That wasn't quite enough.Robin AndersenNews 5/29/26* This week, Democratic Socialist Mayor of New York City Zohran Mamdani unveiled his plan to construct 200,000 new rent-stabilized homes in the city over the next decade, PIX 11 reports, making good on a campaign promise that many supposedly savvy political observers doubted. In addition to the new construction, Mamdani vowed to “preserve and stabilize” an additional 200,000 via New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) repairs, increased housing code enforcement, and a special focus on development in the Bronx. In his announcement, Mamdani said “We are the largest city in the nation. We have the resources, the talent, and the will to achieve this.”* In the federal government, one of the most controversial members of the Trump administration – former Democratic Congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard – has resigned her position as Director of National Intelligence (DNI). The BBC reports Gabbard is citing her husband's recent bone cancer diagnosis as the reason for her departure, but also notes that Gabbard “has largely been out of public view even as the US took military action against Iran, put pressure on Cuba, and…removed Venezuela's president.” In theory, these would all require a substantial degree of participation from and coordination with the DNI, but Gabbard seemed pointedly out of the loop. The actions of the administration have also been diametrically opposed to Gabbard's past foreign policy positions, defined by her 2020 slogan “no more regime change wars.” Others have noted that Gabbard now joins former Attorney General Pam Bondi, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem as high-profile women ousted from the Trump administration while glaringly incompetent men like Pete Hegseth remain in their posts.* Turning to Texas, this week saw a political bloodbath in the runoffs for the primaries held back in March. The topline of course is that scandal-plagued Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, backed by Trump, triumphed over powerful longtime incumbent Senator John Cornyn. With the backing of the president, Paxton wiped the floor with Cornyn, winning around two-thirds of the vote. Yet Paxton goes into the general election against James Talarico very weak. 35% of those polled “Disapprove Strongly” of Paxton with only 15% saying they “Strongly Approve” according to the Texas Politics Project and even the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) condemned Paxton's “lies” “incompetence” personal scandals and corruption in now-deleted press releases. Further down the ballot, incumbent Democratic Members of Congress Al Green and Julie Johnson have been defeated in their primary run-offs, after being forced into Member-on-Member races by the Texas redistricting scheme.* Meanwhile in Michigan, NOTUS reports the Working Families Party (WFP) has endorsed progressive Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed. This primary campaign, with El-Sayed running against moderate Congresswoman Haley Stevens and liberal state Sen. Mallory McMorrow, has become a bruising tripartite affair pitting the three major factions within the Democratic Party against one another. Recently, El-Sayed has taken the lead in this race, which WFP hopes to help consolidate, saying it is prepared to go “all in” on this race. WFP is feeling confident following their role in helping to ensure victory for Chris Rabb in Pennsylvania and Analilia Mejia in New Jersey.* In the Garden State, Senator Andy Kim was caught in a cloud of pepper spray this week as he joined protestors outside of a privately-run ICE detention facility, NJ.com reports. The protests began as a result of an ongoing hunger strike inside of the facility, which has led many high-profile New Jersey Democrats – including Governor Mikie Sherill and Congressman Robert Menendez Jr. in addition to Senator Kim – to call for the facility's closure. Following the confrontation, Kim stated that “What we saw here is unfortunately just what we see all over the country…It's sad…sad day.” At another point, Kim said “The cruelty that you see behind me, this is the point…Right now, I'm trying to have them not point guns at us.”* In another case of outrageous overreach by the Trump administration, Fox reports the Treasury Department has served subpoenas to CodePink activist Medea Benjamin and political streamer and influencer Hasan Piker seeking “financial, logistical and communications information” regarding their recent humanitarian voyage to Cuba. According to this story, the Treasury probe – handled through their Office of Foreign Assets Control – is primarily concerned with whether the convoy “violated U.S. sanctions laws through the financing, coordination or delivery of goods to Cuba, including potential contacts with Cuban government personnel or entities on the island.” The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has condemned the probe, writing that “Weaponizing the Treasury Department to target Americans for exercising their constitutional right to support human rights is unacceptable.” CAIR went on to call the investigation “performative and politically-motivated,” contending that “Every American who believes in the rule of law and human rights should stand in solidarity with Medea and demand that the Treasury Department drop its McCarthyite witch hunt.”* The Democrats meanwhile are once again conspiring against one another. The Bulwark reports the campaign to unseat Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin is back on – and now includes viable alternatives. Previously, discontent was mounting but there did not appear to be any other options. Presently though, the list circulating in Democratic circles consists of New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, former EMILY's List president Stephanie Schriock, former president of the Service Employees International Union Mary Kay Henry, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro, former chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes, and former Wisconsin party chair Ben Wikler. Wikler, who revitalized the Beaver State party and placed second against Martin in the DNC Chair election, has “rebuffed discussions about leading the DNC, saying he wants nothing to do with effort to remove Martin and isn't interested in replacing him.” Yet even with no obvious alternative, calls are mounting for Martin to step aside. This piece cites statements by progressive Wisconsin Rep. Mark Pocan, as well as a new initiative by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee on one side, alongside statements by more moderate Reps. Marc Veasey and Seth Moulton to the same effect. Still, many state parties and an equally ideologically diverse coalition is standing by Martin, so he will likely remain in place, at least for the time being.* Looking southward, this week Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that her country will host the Iranian team ahead of the FIFA World Cup. Per Al Jazeera, the United States, which is hosting many of the matches, including all three the Iranian team was scheduled to play in, expressed that they did not think it “appropriate” for Iranian team members to be in the country, “for their own life and safety.” FIFA approached Mexico as an alternative. In her daily press conference, Sheinbaum stated that “We have no reason to deny them the possibility of staying in Mexico.” The Iranian team has also announced they will be moving their training base from Tucson to Tijuana, but still plan to enter the United States to play their games – with Trump saying they will be “welcome,” despite the fact American authorities have yet to issue the necessary visas.* Our final two stories involve the Pope. First, AP reports that this week Pope Leo XIV made an historic apology not only for the Catholic Church's role in legitimizing slavery, but its failure to condemn the practice for centuries afterwards. Pope Leo called this a “wound in Christian memory.” Leo, the first American Pope, can point to both enslaved people and slave owners in his familial lineage, a remarkable vantage point from which to issue this statement in his first ever encyclical ”Magnifica Humanitas.”* Yet, for how historic this section of the encyclical is, it is not the portion of it that drew the most attention. That would be the section on Artificial Intelligence. Pope Leo writes “Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together.” Leo goes on to make the critical point that “technology is never neutral, because it takes on the characteristics of those who devise, finance, regulate, and use it.” He further goes on to state that “the pressure of new ideologies or certain highly powerful interests” can reduce the human person to “a resource to be used and exploited” or evaluated “on what they achieve or produce,” whereas God creates each individual person in His image and imbues them with inherent dignity. It is impossible to say whether the Pontiff's words will move the titans of the tech industry to change their ways, but his moving rhetoric is sure to significantly influence the world's view of AI, both today and for students of history.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Is this the moment the Global Elite officially declared war on America First? A secret, closed-door meeting in Toronto just blew the lid off a massive international chess match—and it involves former President Barack Obama, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, and a coordinated globalist network operating right on America's doorstep. When Mark Carney posted a video of a handshake with Obama, the internet absolutely exploded. While the mainstream media calls it a routine speaking engagement, the truth is far more explosive. This wasn't a friendly visit; it was a high-level "war council" packed with global elites, Clinton-Obama operatives, and international billionaires strategizing on how to crush the populist wave sweeping the West. The epicenter of this gathering? A closed-press gala hosted by Canada 2020—the powerful progressive think tank acting as the literal spine of the Canadian Liberal establishment—paired with the Global Progress Action Summit, co-hosted alongside Washington's influential Center for American Progress (CAP) Action Fund. Backed by the Open Society Institute funding architecture and heavily staffed with World Economic Forum (WEF) alumni, this massive apparatus is no longer operating in the shadows. In this deep-dive episode, we pull back the curtain on the multi-billion-dollar trade rift, escalating 50% tariffs, and Donald Trump's shocking suggestion that Canada become the 51st state. Inside this episode, we break down: The Handshake Scandal: Why the American Right is demanding arrests over Logan Act violations while the Left claims "nothing to see here." The Institutional Blueprint: How Canada 2020 and the Center for American Progress convened a "war council with catering," drawing in heads of state, top-tier 2028 U.S. presidential prospects, and intelligence alumni. The Ultimate Showdown: How Prime Minister Mark Carney—a Goldman Sachs alumnus, Bilderberg Group member, and WEF board member—is leveraging transnational networks to lead the international resistance against Trump. The July 1st CUSMCA Deadline: The ticking economic time bomb that could strip tariff exemptions from 90% of Canadian exports and send shockwaves through American supply chains. The Hidden Strategy: The globalist ecosystem's plan of exhaustion, replication, and entrapment designed to bypass domestic voter mandates and outlast the nationalist movement.
