Happy Labor Day! The MR Crew is off today but in the meantime please enjoy our annual audio compilation of labor-themed excerpts from luminaries such as Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Mario Savio, John L. Lewis, as well as Sen. Bernie Sanders reading the words of Eugene Debs.
On Labor Day weekend episode of Razor Wire News, McShane and Fitz open with beer banter and off-color merch jokes before diving into the week's topics: Canadian PM Mark Carney complains that Americans should stop “doing memes,” prompting an avalanche of AI edits and Carney quickly signaling he's ready to talk trade; he was “memed into submission.” They discuss a juvenile-but-funny White House drop of five retro arcade-style games (including a Tetris-like one) and note Tetris is unhappy about copyright, while arguing border enforcement is still a serious issue. They slam Bernie Sanders' bill to ban AI as anti-American in an arms-race with China, joking they'd rather face an “American AI terminator” than a Chinese one. Later, they roast the 2026 Socialism Conference in Chicago (2,600 sign-ups), highlight a speaker arguing the left should stop trying to be “fitter than the fascists,” and trace funding to major foundations including Tides, Rockefeller, Ford, and others. They revisit Nepal's catastrophic flood via meteorologist Chris Martz, rejecting climate-change blame and calling it bedrock collapse and reporting effects, then pivot to UN climate messaging, geomagnetic-field theories, El Niño, a hurricane-less Atlantic, and multiple Indonesian volcanic eruptions around Krakatau. Jefé drops in with a “Farm Report” about the pistol shrimp's cavitation “shot” (218 dB, extreme heat, flash of light). The episode also detours into the WNBA commissioner “retiring,” Hunter Biden's “48.6% gay” remark, Ryan Reynolds' comments about the '80s while promoting “Mayday,” and a viral video classifying movies by political ideology, before closing with standout beers and a call to think critically.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/razor-wire-news--5683729/support.www.razorwirenews.com

On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 30th August and the 4th September 2026 (Episodes #11,932 - #11,937). This week, Celeste goes the way of her beloved Dolly a little sooner than we'd expected, but when a shocking family secret comes to light, Bernie fears it could spell a death sentence for her nearest and dearest. Is this really the sort of story Corrie needs right now, though? Meanwhile, Debbie's condition takes a worrying turn as she becomes increasingly confused - is a drama-free birthday party on Monday really too much to ask? Also this week, Kit beds a mystery woman, Betsy takes her first post-stroke steps and Nina bids farewell to Weatherfield for a new life in Whitby. Up next on the podcast it's the Kabin, where we take a look at some Corrie pictures from the Manchester Pride and share an update on Eileen Derbyshire. We round off the show with more of your Corrie feedback. Street Talk - 00:07:01 The Kabin - 02:11:38 Feedback - 02:25:03
“I trust them to kiss the government's ass. I don't trust them to serve me.” — Keith Teare Who to trust in an age of AI agents? Especially when it seems as if these swarming agents — akin to the gang of adolescents in William Golding's Lord of the Flies — are developing minds of their own. At this week's G20 Innovation Ministerial in North Carolina, Donald Trump and his minions produced a hands-off charter for AI. Known as the “Carolina Principles,” it sounds to critics like a particularly unprincipled justification for regulation-free AI. That Was The Week publisher, Keith Teare, however, isn't a critic of Trump's Principles. Don't trust the trust scare, Keith tells us. Especially all the fear around the swarming agents that are supposedly developing minds of their own. Pooh-poohing the real-world Hugging Face breakout, Keith argues that since he's never witnessed swarming agents on his computer, they can't exist. Which is akin, I suspect, to a climate denier who argues that global warming is a hoax because it happens to be chilly outside. All-too-human logic, I fear, in our age of autonomous AI agents. Five Takeaways • The Carolina Principles. The week's set piece was a G20 Innovation Ministerial in North Carolina that Keith describes as a Trump takeover of a global event: the Russian finance minister turned up at Trump's invitation, and the attendees were lectured — via David Sacks and Howard Lutnick — on the merits of unregulated American capitalism. A propaganda event, Keith concedes, but one that reached the right conclusion: the resulting “Carolina Principles,” signed by everyone including the Europeans, call for flexible frameworks that encourage adoption and pointedly decline to make trust a license innovation must obtain in advance. With Bernie Sanders calling the same week for a development halt pending government licenses, Keith's position is characteristically blunt: “when I've started a company, I don't go and ask permission. I just do it.” Getting rid of Lina Khan, he adds, remains about the only thing he likes about the Trump administration. Andrew's verdict on the charter: to critics, a particularly unprincipled justification for regulation-free AI.• Don't Trust the Trust Scare. Keith's editorial thesis: trust is not granted by authority; it is built through use. You trust yourself in a car because you drive one, and not on roller skates because you fall over. Over seventy percent of Americans now use AI — the same Americans who tell Politico they oppose data centers — which is why Keith reads the backlash as a confection of media and populist politicians, soon to evaporate (the real coming problem, he argues, is too few data centers, not too many; the modern off-grid ones are net givers of power). The withheld ChatGPT-6 gets the same treatment: launched but limited to insiders, which Keith reads not as safety but as government relations — the pull quote of the week. Andrew's counter: in a world without regulators, trust in the companies is all we have — including, awkwardly for Keith, when they withhold their own products. Exhibit for the defense, from The Washington Post: Americans in an age of anxiety leaning on AI — Keith included, who feeds his medical records to ChatGPT and finds it “very closely aligned with what your doctor thinks.”• The Swarming Fight. The hour's genuine clash. In the wake of the Hugging Face hack, Kevin Roose warned in The New York Times that it should make you worry more about AI, and OpenAI's Dean Ball publicly apologized for failing “to communicate in sufficiently serious terms about the specifics of self-sovereign AI.” Neither is a doomer — which is Andrew's point. Keith's rebuttal: every swarm sighting has occurred inside an AI lab, in an experiment whose parameters the labs themselves set — “on my computer, I don't see any swarms” — and self-sovereign AI is anthropomorphizing science fiction: agents pursue goals humans set. “I know enough to know BS when I read it, and this is BS.” Andrew's reply — “I think you're trivializing” — went unwithdrawn, and his sign-off flagged that Keith perhaps simplifies the Hugging Face incident. Unresolved, to be continued. Andrew's framing gives the episode its title — swarming agents as the gang of adolescents in Golding's Lord of the Flies — and his verdict its sting: Keith's I-see-no-swarms-on-my-computer logic is akin to a climate denier calling global warming a hoax because it's chilly outside. Keith's exit line: “I'm just gonna go and check on my swarms.”• Nvidia Buys Hugging Face. The week's biggest deal: Nvidia acquired Hugging Face — the repository of the world's open-source AI models — for $13 billion, just as The New York Times reported corporate America getting hooked on open source (much of it Chinese: GLM 5.3). The economics, per Keith: an $18,000 Mac Studio or a top-end Nvidia GPU beats $200-a-month token fees — AI capability migrating to the edge, out of OpenAI's and Anthropic's meters. Which suits Nvidia either way: The Economist calls it the central bank of AI, though Andrew prefers arms supplier — it wins whether the future is open or closed, and is, ironically, the most trusted name in the business precisely because it has no dog in the fight. Don't expect it to govern anything, says Keith: “that would put friction in the way of their sales.” The challenger to watch: newly public Cerebras, whose wafer-scale chips undercut Nvidia on token price.• Mom and Dad's Money. The Times asked which investors will get rich from Anthropic's IPO — and noted that, unlike past booms, firms like Sequoia hold both horses, OpenAI and Anthropic alike. Keith's arithmetic explains why: fewer than fifty companies will return venture capital this cycle, those two representing more than half the likely value, and last month 75 percent of all dollars invested in VC funds went to Andreessen Horowitz alone. (His own SignalRank barometer: for two years, none of its 64 investments cracked the top-20 most-wanted secondary shares; now five have.) The pyramid runs from VCs down to pension funds — “somebody's mom and dad's money is heavily betting that Anthropic and OpenAI are gonna return large amounts of wealth” — and late secondary buyers, Figma-style, almost always lose when the IPO right-sizes the price. What could topple the deck of cards? Regulation slowing the modeled returns. Which is why, for Keith, the midterms should be fought on jobs and wages — data centers, he insists, are not a winning issue. About the Co-Host Keith Teare is the founder and CEO of SignalRank Corporation and publisher of the That Was The Week tech newsletter, whose editorial — “Don't Trust the Trust Scare” — frames this episode. A serial entrepreneur and co-founder of TechCrunch, he has spent five decades building and funding technology companies, and brings a techno-optimist's eye to Keen On America's weekly wrap of the tech news.

Jack Posobiec joins Tudor Dixon to sound the alarm over what he sees as the growing influence of socialism in America — and why conservatives may be fighting it the wrong way. Posobiec, senior editor at Human Events and co-author of Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (and How to Crush Them), discusses the new edition of the book and argues that socialist politics are gaining traction with younger and middle-class Americans frustrated by the economy, jobs, immigration, and the political establishment. Tudor and Posobiec examine the rise of socialist candidates across the country, including Michigan U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, and discuss how economic resentment, institutional influence, and political loyalty can fuel revolutionary movements. They also take a closer look at El-Sayed’s political record and past views, the battle over the nuclear family, the legacy of COVID-era government power, political violence, Charlie Kirk, Luigi Mangione, and why Posobiec believes Americans need to understand the tactics historically used by communist and socialist movements before those ideas gain even more political power. Plus, Posobiec explains what history — from the Soviet Union and communist China to Eastern Europe — can teach Americans about revolutionary politics and why he believes the United States is facing a critical ideological battle. The new edition of Unhumans arrives September 29.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ken and Anthony gripe about the brutal late-summer heat and humidity in Cleveland while ribbing each other over practice logistics for teams that train in Florida heat versus cold-weather playoff games. Ken pulls out a receipt from a conversation with Bernie Kozar about a playoff loss tied to acclimating for the cold, using it to settle an old argument with producer Keith. The guys also hype up the Fan 15th anniversary event at Dave & Buster's, including a possible off-air Q&A where Ken teases he might finally spill some stories he can't tell on air.
Senator Bernie Sanders joins Kendall Scudder to discuss what Democrats need to do to win in Texas and turn electoral victories into lasting political change. Sanders makes the case for building coalitions around policies affecting working-class Americans, from healthcare and wages to education and taxes, while arguing that winning elections means little if leaders fail to deliver once in office. The conversation also touches on grassroots organizing, campaign finance, the future of Texas politics, and one Vermont recommendation Sanders would rather keep secret.

Connect Malta, Atlantis, and the island's megalithic temples through Plato, older writers, and archaeoastronomy. The conversation weighs the traditional archaeological dating against sky-based alignments and asks whether Malta preserves traces of a much older lost civilization. Bernie is back, going a little deeper in this part of the world. Bernie Taylor, Naturalist, Archaeoastronomer and Author of Before Orion: Finding the Face of the Heroand Biological Time. https://www.youtube.com/@beforeoriondotcom https://beforeorion.com/ We discuss Bernie's three-part framework for Atlantis, the evidence from Malta's temple sites, and why the alignments to Sirius and the solstices matter. Graham and Darren also press on the hypogeum, underwater connections, and how Malta fits into a wider Mediterranean megalithic tradition. Key topics Bernie Taylor lays out his case that Malta belongs inside the broader Atlantis tradition, even if Malta was not Atlantis itself. He argues Plato's Atlantis story draws on earlier writers like Herodotus and Sanchuniathon, not just Plato alone. The group discusses Plato's "9,000 years before Solon" as likely metaphorical rather than a literal date. Malta's megalithic temples are presented as especially important because they have no clear living cultural memory explaining who built them. The conversation contrasts archaeological dating of temple use with the possibility that older foundations or floors could predate the visible walls. Bernie highlights archaeostronomical work by Tor Lomsdalen and Leni Redig showing alignments tied to Sirius, equinoxes, and solstices. Darren and Graham push the idea that reused sites, buried structures, and later contamination could blur the true dates of Malta's temples. The hypogeum is raised as a major unanswered question, especially because it may indicate a larger underground complex. The episode repeatedly returns to the idea that Atlantis, Malta, Gobekli Tepe, and other ancient sites may belong to a shared long-range tradition rather than isolated local inventions. The practical travel angle comes through too, with Bernie recommending compasses and printed temple maps for the Malta trip. Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

President Donald Trump called data centers the “Golden Goose,” even as they hang like an albatross around the necks of Republicans facing a tough election season. So Playbook's Megan Messerly found out why. Later, Dasha Burns joins alongside JMart to discuss his latest excursion to Vacationland for a sit-down with Sen. Susan Collins, before digging into the moderate Democrats clapping back at Sen. Bernie Sanders. Plus, Playbook looks ahead to the first ever Republican Midterm Convention.

Joe Concha fires back at what he calls the single most ridiculous political soundbite of the year: New York Governor Kathy Hochul claiming Donald Trump is defunding the police, NYPD intelligence, and local fire departments. Joe breaks down AOC's tactical retreat when confronted over her association with controversial Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, and reacts to Bernie Sanders' blunt admission that Democrats will welcome any "inmate" into the Senate asylum just to secure a voting majority.Later, Joe analyzes the shifting tides of the midterms, explaining how critical union support—from Teamsters to auto workers—is slipping away from Democrats and outlines how a minor polling error could trigger a major Republican Senate sweep.
La fiebre de la inteligencia artificial ha venido acompañada de un frenesí en la construcción de centros de datos, grandes naves en las que se almacenan los servidores que permiten a esta tecnología funcionar. La infraestructura necesita suelo, suministro eléctrico y agua para refrigerar las máquinas. Las grandes tecnológicas como Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft y Oracle han comprometido 750.000 millones de dólares en proyectos por todo el mundo. El gasto en centros de datos de aquí a 2030 rondará los 3 billones de dólares. La capacidad de cómputo estadounidense pasaría de este modo de algo menos de 12 gigavatios a cinco veces esa cifra a finales de esta década. Contra ese despliegue se ha levantado la opinión pública en Estados Unidos con una insólita unanimidad. Según los sondeos más recientes el 71% de los estadounidenses se opone a que se construya uno en su municipio frente al 53% que dice lo mismo de una central nuclear. Lo llamativo es que quienes solo han oído hablar de estas instalaciones, pero nunca han visto una, se oponen en la misma proporción que quienes viven a menos de 10 kilómetros de una de ellas. Esto desarma por completo la explicación habitual. No se trata de un caso tradicional de NIMBY, acrónimo de “no en mi patio trasero”, sino de un juicio moral sobre la tecnología que albergan estos complejos en el que participa gente que jamás verá uno de cerca. La política ha traducido el estado de ánimo a velocidad admirable. Bernie Sanders ha pedido una moratoria nacional y, como las elecciones de medio mandato están cerca, los candidatos a la Cámara de Representantes y al Senado se han apresurado a incluir este tema dentro de sus promesas de campaña. Los que ya son senadores y los gobernadores estatales piden restricciones y auditorias sin importar que pertenezcan al partido Demócrata o al Republicano. En la calle el 75% de los demócratas y el 66% de los republicanos rechazan tener uno cerca de casa, así que el asunto parte a los dos partidos por la mitad. Buena parte de esta batalla se libra contra un fantasma. El mercado está saturado de anuncios de futuros centros de datos que nunca pasarán del comunicado de prensa. Sólo en Pensilvania menos del 20% de los más de 100 proyectos anunciados han iniciado los trámites. El agravio se ha sabido instrumentalizar muy bien y el debate viene de partida contaminado con datos falsos o adulterados. El centro de datos promedio consume al año la misma cantidad de agua de dos campos de golf. Una turbina de gas emite un 90% menos de partículas finas que una acería. El suelo, por lo demás, es muy abundante en Estados Unidos. El cuello de botella real está en la red eléctrica. Las solicitudes de conexión pendientes suman 1 teravatio y solo Texas ha recibido peticiones por 474 gigavatios cuando su capacidad punta no pasa de 90. Es necesario antes instalar mucha capacidad nueva de generación, algo que llevará tiempo. Entretanto Europa ha visto la oportunidad y en algunos países la quieren aprovechar ofreciendo suelo barato, mucha energía renovable y una excelente red de fibra óptica. La opinión pública europea aún no se ha puesto mayoritariamente en contra de los centros de datos, pero el problema de fondo es el mismo que el de Estados Unidos: falta capacidad eléctrica y esa no se amplia ni fácil ni rápidamente.

CannCon and Ashe in America finally land a guest CannCon has chased for years, and it's personal, since Tim Canova is a law professor at CannCon's alma mater and once ran for Congress in his district. A lifelong Kennedy Democrat turned establishment thorn, Tim recounts his against-all-odds 2016 primary run at DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, built on 12,000 door knocks a week, a surprise Bernie Sanders endorsement, and a national map lighting up with small-dollar donations. Then comes the gut punch: local media posting results with 70 percent of precincts reporting before a single ballot was counted, polls that vanished, and a ballot-destruction saga that followed. Along the way the crew connects it to Kari Lake, Pennsylvania, WikiLeaks, and the machinery that protects incumbents. A rare insider's view of how a party crushes its own insurgents. Plus AI data centers, loaded gun coffee, and the Creature from Jekyll Island.
In the first hour of Sports Open Line, the great question about the offensive suppression at Busch Stadium continues...Would the Cardinals be better this season if Busch stadium was less of a pitcher's park? How much is the pitching benefitting on the other end? Bernie Miklasz joins the show after breaking down the question in his recent article and asking some new ones as well. Plus, it was a busy 24 hours with the Blues, including the announcement of Robert Thomas as the next captain.

We made it back! Unlike some of the people in our episode. From the time it opened in 1937 until now, more than 21,000 people have thru-hiked the 2,190-mile Appalachian Trail, and countless more have set foot on it. It’s maginificent and awe-inspiring, but not always kind. From three young men from New York in 1938, to Geraldine Largay in 2013, we take a look at some of the well-known, and not so well-known, people who’ve gotten lost on the 2,190-mile trail from Georgia to Maine. Many of them in Maine, some in New Hampshire and other states. Some with happy endings, many without. We’re using new software that we hope will also lead to video versions of the podcast, so stay tuned! Lots of visuals to go with this episode, so even without a video version, check back on this site for maps, photos and more that go with this episode.

It's quite a claim, but Bernie Sanders has suggested that some Democrats would rather lose the Senate than support Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and Angie Nixon in Florida.These firebrand progressive candidates, Sanders claims, are too much of a threat to oligarchy and the US relationship with Israel for a minority of establishment Democrats to get behind. Is he right? And if so, what does it say about the depth of division in the party? Or is this really about who gets the presidential nomination in 2028?Later, the Pulitzer prize winning biographer Kai Bird on how Donald Trump learnt the dark arts from Roy Cohn - and how Cohn has defined America's politics today.The News Agents USA is a Global Production.The News Agents USA is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

Midterms, Democratic infighting, the DSA, Bernie Sanders, the 25th anniversary of 9/11, Rosie O'Donnell, immigration, family, and political obsession all collide in this hard-hitting episode of Carnivore Radio.Jeff Sherman and Eric Lopkin take on the stories driving the political and cultural conversation, then push past the usual talking points. They debate whether the Democratic Party is headed for a showdown between moderates and the far left, what 9/11 could mean for candidates tied to radical rhetoric, and whether activist politics can survive when ideology meets real-world results.The hosts also challenge claims about immigration, celebrity outrage, career versus family, and the tendency to blame national politics for personal frustration. No partisan comfort zone. No protected narratives. Just sharp arguments, disagreement, and direct analysis.
It's News Day Tuesday on The Majority Report On today's program: The Supreme Court has finally taken the handcuffs off of Donald Trump's ballroom construction after they found no one has the authority to stop such a project. ICE raids a nightclub in Memphis, arresting more than 100 people based solely on their race. As of now, the only people who have been released are those who were able to provide proof of U.S. citizenship at the time of the raid. Sarah Polcz, Professor of Law at UC-Davis and co-author of "Sharing the Algorithm: The Tax Solution to Generative AI", which provided the AI equity tax framework behind Bernie Sanders' American A.I. Sovereign Wealth Fund Act, joins for a conversation about her tax proposal. Dara Lind, Senior Fellow at the American Immigration Council and journalist, joins to discuss her piece in the New Yorker, "The Great Delegalization," that covers the more than one million people losing their temporary protected status. In the Fun Half: Republican candidate for Governor in Florida Byron Donalds and Republican ass Bill Maher team up on Molly Jong Fast in defense of Trump's war on Iran. Van Jones claims that Abdul El-Sayed's position of a weapons embargo on Israel is "insane" despite it being an 80/20 issue for Democratic voters. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries cannot escape his disastrous decision to meet with Jared Kushner. Jeffries continues to gaslight Americans in claiming that the meeting was All that and more.

Bill interviews former Labor Secretary and UC Berkeley professor emeritus Robert Reich about a Supreme Court decision on the Trump Ballroom he says reflects collapsing guardrails and a “unitary executive theory” that concentrates power in the president, which Reich argues effectively resurrects a king; he suggests Chief Justice John Roberts may be trying to prevent Trump from ignoring the Court outright. Reich says Trump's claims about prosperity are false, calling the economy weak, foreign policy a fiasco, and warning the country is in worse shape than under Nixon. Reich disputes Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's denial of a K-shaped economy, citing rising wealth concentration, debt in the bottom half, and wages lagging inflation, while noting $40 trillion in national debt and growing interest payments benefiting bondholders after major tax cuts for the rich. They discuss oligarchic influence, billionaire tech figures, data centers' electricity, water, and noise burdens, and Reich's call to restrict or even ban them and regulate AI. Reich sees progressive Democrats focused on cost of living and money in politics as timely, warns of threats to voting, and predicts Democrats could regain the House; he urges a campaign message centered on jobs, wages, affordability, anti-monopoly action, paid leave, and higher taxes on the rich.Check out Bob's substack: RobertReich.substack.com/ and YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@RBReichHere is a link to Bob's book, https://bookshop.org/p/books/coming-up-short-a-memoir-of-my-america-robert-b-reich/74502451024fd083See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On Zohran Mamdani. Writer Ross Barkan, author of The Revolutionary on the New York mayor, talks to Ryan Zickgraf and Alex Hochuli about what Mamdani means for the Left. How did Mamdani mute cultural progressivism to focus concentrate on rent, transport, childcare and food? Is municipal socialism part of a strategy to rebuild national power, or is it a retreat to the cities after the failure of Bernie? Is the New York strategy replicable elsewhere in the US? How is Mamdani different from AOC? Is Mamdani a populist, not a socialist? Is the rentier, rather than the worker, the subject of politics?

Last time it was a cockfight. This time it's a pig.In Part 3 of Confucius: The World That Created the Sage, Bernie and Dan follow Confucius to the powerful state of Qi, where he finally gets the opportunity to discuss government with Duke Jing—and comes tantalizingly close to getting the political opportunity he has been waiting for.But when Confucius returns home to Lu, the political order has somehow become even more upside down. The great families who stripped power from their duke are now discovering that their own servants have learned the same lesson. Enter Yang Hu: a household retainer who rises to become one of the most powerful men in Lu—and who very much wants Confucius on his side.What follows includes political intrigue, rebellion, assassination plots, an attempted kidnapping, and one extraordinarily well-chosen gift of pork.And once again, the chaos surrounding Confucius helps us understand the philosophy taking shape in his mind. What does it mean to say "let the ruler be a ruler and the minister a minister" when rulers can't rule, ministers won't obey—and servants are beginning to rule their masters?PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO WHAT'S NEW IN HISTORY YOUTUBE CHANNELhttps://www.youtube.com/@whatsnewinhistoryThis is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.Contact information:E-mail: zimwaupodcast@gmail.comhttp://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.Used here under a commercial Creative Commons license.

And it happens to be the two-third that has the greatest amount of the GDP in the world.Colonel Lawrence WilkersonI've lived for 81 years, almost 82, and I've watched my country go to hell right in front of my face… And the billionaires who want all of this to happen, they do not want a democracy. A democracy is fallible. A democracy can't beat China. A democracy can't beat Russia. A democracy can't even beat Iran. They want a technocracy that is run by them, armed by them, technical revolution by them. They want all of this, and oh by the way they want to live to 150 while they're doing it too.Colonel Lawrence WilkersonEvery freaking hour they create a series of war crimes in Iran. Every freaking hour they perpetrate war crimes in the Persian Gulf. Every freaking hour they perpetrate war crimes in Lebanon with Israel. “What's new?,” I want to say. We are a criminal state. There is no other way to describe it. We are a criminal state. We pay no attention whatsoever to domestic or international law. Only when it benefits the person who is doing the deed do we pay any attention at all.Colonel Lawrence WilkersonToby Heaps is the CEO and co-founder of Corporate Knights, and Editor-in-Chief of Corporate Knights magazine. He spearheaded the first global ranking of the world's 100 most sustainable corporations in 2005, and in 2007 coined the term “clean capitalism.”What we're seeing is a sort of political physics—for every action is an equal and opposite reaction. Canada has in many ways benefited and rallied around our nationhood. We're often not the most boisterous or loudest type of folks. But this continued disrespect for our statehood and the continued attacks and the unreasonableness and the unfair play, our prime minister said something to the effect of: when the United States signs something, it's in pencil. It's really denigrating the United States' reputation globally and in Canadians' minds.Toby HeapsNews 8/28/26* This week, the left-wing insurgency in the Democratic Party scored several new victories. First, NBC reports that in Oklahoma, N'Kiyla Jasmine Thomas won the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate seat vacated by Markwayne Mullin, who Trump selected to lead the Department of Homeland Security following the resignation of Secretary Kristi Noem. Thomas will go up against Republican Congressman Kevin Hern in November. Unfortunately, Thomas stands little chance of winning the state, which has not elected a Democratic Senator since 1990. Thomas is a member of the Chickasaw Nation and identifies as a Democratic Socialist, but is “not yet” a member of DSA.* Next, in California, Democracy Now! reports progressive state lawmaker Aisha Wahab has prevailed in the special election to fill the seat vacated by disgraced former Congressman Eric Swalwell. This piece notes that Wahab “overcame a flood of attack ads from pro-Israel groups,” which sought to bolster her Democratic primary rival, Melissa Hernandez. In an interview, Wahab said that she “appreciates” voters in her district for “seeing through” the “lies that were spread by AIPAC.” Wahab will make history as the first Afghan American in Congress and has called for the United States to engage with the Taliban government and attempt to “[steer] them in the right direction” on human rights.* In Georgia, the Hill reports another progressive – Everton Blair – won the special election to fill the seat of Congressman David Scott, who passed away in April during his 12th term in the seat. Blair, the former chair of the Gwinnett County School Board, defeated Scott's daughter Marcye Scott. However, Blair will only represent this seat until the end of the year. Beginning in January, State Rep. Jasmine Clark, who won the May primary, will fill the seat for the 120th Congress.* Meanwhile, in the Cornhusker State, the Nebraska Examiner reports that the “Legal Marijuana NOW U.S. Senate candidate Mike Marvin announced he can't put more ‘energy' into the Senate race because of health issues and endorsed nonpartisan U.S. Senate candidate Dan Osborn.” Marvin will remain on the ballot, but is “urging all who supported [him] to now support…Osborn.” This piece notes that this announcement comes on heels of reporting by Flatwater Free Press showing that two staffers from Osborn's 2024 independent Senate campaign joined the Legal Marijuana NOW executive board and sought to dissolve the party from the inside. This, combined with the fact that former Democratic Senate nominee Cindy Burbank paid Mike Marvin's $1,740 candidate filing fee and dropped out of the race one day after the secretary of state verified Osborn's signatures to be on the fall ballot has fueled speculation that these were coordinated efforts to clear the field for Osborn. Marvin for his part disputes this and says he never planned to leave the race. Osborn is quoted saying “We hope to earn the support of the LMN voters and hope that we can represent their concerns well in the US Senate.”* In more third party news, Trump has launched new broadsides against the emerging ex-MAGA clique – consisting of Tucker Carlson, Congressman Thomas Massie, and former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. According to the Hill, Trump attacked the group, said to be exploring the possibility of founding a new right-wing party, calling Carlson “a loser,” Greene “a highly neurotic woman” and Massie a “real JERK” on Truth Social. The president added, “What a team this would be, THREE LOSERS, and a pocketful of change!...The only chance they have is to join the Radical Left Dumocrats, and try breaking into the Primary System. To all of them I say, PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!” The proximate cause of this latest flare-up between the camps is Trump's decision to allow in 300,000 metric tons of ground beef to be imported in the next 90 days, a move Massie called “worse than socialism.” Greene, who has been perhaps the most vocal defector from the MAGA camp, said “He attacks us with such vitriol because we actually are everything he claimed to be…he has proven as President that he is nothing more than a neocon puppet for Israel, corporations, big donors with special interests, and his dear friends in the Epstein class…We never changed, Trump did.”* Another story from this side of the aisle comes to us from NOTUS, which reports that an “unknown actor” has stolen over $16,000 from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC). This incident, alternatively characterized as a “theft” from a “foreign country” or simply a “fraud,” occurred in early July, when the NRCC “attempted to pay a bill from Ranger Wi-Fi Consulting, a Texas-based firm that specializes in helping clients ‘optimize their wireless networks while ensuring healthy security measures are in place.'” Seeking to assuage the fears of donors, NRCC spokesman Will Kiley told the press that “Protecting donor funds is a top priority for the NRCC,” and vowed that the committee is “working to recover the funds, and…taken steps to ensure it can't happen again.” Listeners might remember that in July, the DNC admitted that they had fallen prey to a scammer, losing almost $30,000 in the process. It would seem that these committees do not have functional safeguards against such schemes.* Our final stories this week all deal with the Middle East. First up, Axios reports that while AIPAC was gearing up for a major ad blitz in Michigan against Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed and on behalf of Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers, those plans have apparently been iced at the behest of the Rogers campaign. According to this story, Rogers believes that AIPAC spending in the Democratic primary – over $30 million on behalf of El-Syed's rival Haley Stevens – actually helped boost El-Sayed's candidacy, making his opposition to AIPAC a “centerpiece of his…campaign, using the group's spending against him to portray Democratic opponent Haley Stevens as beholden to the pro-Israel lobby.” Rogers fears the same fate, so he has sought to keep his distance from AIPAC while his allies are urging AIPAC to “get involved without putting the group's name front and center.” However, Rogers' attempts to put some daylight between his campaign and AIPAC has resulted in the latter turning cold towards the Republican candidate. Republicans now worry that AIPAC will “sit out the general election entirely.” As for the perception of AIPAC in Michigan, a recent poll found that “55% of Michigan voters oppose continued U.S. aid to Israel.”* On the other end of the Michigan political spectrum, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has sent a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio demanding that he “ensure the immediateand permanent release of U.S. citizen Sama Safi, a 20-year-old university student with a severe complex chronic health condition, who the Israeli military has arbitrarily and wrongfully detained since June 2nd.” This letter goes on to describe how “armed Israeli soldiers raided her family's home in the occupied West Bank in the middle of the night and tore her from her family,” and that since then, she has “suffered under appalling conditions in Israeli military detention including “frequent physical assault, shackling, and the throwing of gas and stun grenades into already overcrowded and poorly ventilated cells,” among other horrors. 40 more members of Congress signed this letter, including six senators, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey and Chris Van Hollen among them. 85 civic groups also signed onto this demand, ranging from faith-based groups to human rights organizations and beyond.* In the region itself, a broad coalition of Muslim states – including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt and, perhaps most notably, the United Arab Emirates – have issued a categorical condemnation of Israel's new “E1” settlement plan. This plan relates to new settlement activities east of occupied East Jerusalem and the signatories decry the plan as constituting “a dangerous escalation that further advances settlement expansion and annexation and undermines the geographical contiguity of the Occupied Palestinian Territory…thereby threatening the viability and realization of an independent, contiguous Palestinian State based on the 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital.” The UAE was the most significant state in the region to sign onto the Trump-brokered Abraham Accords in 2020, which sought to normalize relations between Israel and its neighbors at the expense of the Palestinians. Saudi Arabia was said to be on the verge of signing the accords prior to October 7th and Israel's subsequent genocidal military campaign in Gaza. The UAE taking a new stand against Israel on behalf of the Palestinian cause is widely seen as the final death knell of the Abraham Accords and the beginning of a new era of relations in the Middle East.* Finally, the Economist reports that a group of seven top officials within the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is consolidating power in Iran. The man rumored to be leading this junta is Mohsen Rezaei, the new national-security adviser, former presidential candidate and the longest-serving chief of the IRGC, having led the corps though the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s. Others include the head of the navy, currently overseeing Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, as well as the IRGC's commander-in-chief and founder of the Quds Force. Notably absent from this group is Mojtaba Khamenei, the new Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic. This piece judiciously avoids making any definite predictions about whether this new clique will rule as hardliners or pragmatists, but emphasizes that the late Ali Khamenei expertly “balanced the competing interests of his realm” while these military men favor action.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
