Podcast appearances and mentions of Bill Clinton

A New York man who was convicted and sentenced to prison on charges related to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, then pardoned by President Donald Trump, is arrested on charges he threatened to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (R-NY). We get reaction from Jeffries & Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA); President Donald Trump hosts Senate Republicans for a lunch at the White House on the patio near the West Wing that he calls the Rose Garden Club to tout the Republican agenda and what he sees as successes. This comes on Day 21 of the federal government shutdown, with little apparent movement towards a resolution of the standoff between the parties; House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) says his panel wants to hear from former President Bill Clinton in the investigation of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and accuses Democrats of falsely linking Epstein to President Trump; Vice President JD Vance visits Israel and expresses optimism that ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas in Gaza will hold, despite sporadic violence; Former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns talks about on the expected meeting between President Trump & Chinese leader Xi Jinping; Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) on government safety net programs for children; White House celebration of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is Play That Rock n' Roll's 100th episode (!), which is an interview with comedian Nick Prueher, the co-host of the Found Footage Festival. We begin this interview by talking about what Nick was doing before the Found Footage Fest, which was mainly working at the Late Show with David Letterman. He tells some great stories about interacting with celebrities like Richard Simmons, Darlene Love, Bruce Willis, and even President Bill Clinton. He also shares his memories of working on the episode that featured Warren Zevon's legendary final appearance. From there, we move onto what he's doing now with the Found Footage Festival. He talks about how the show got started, the comedy bits he's most proud of, and some of the incredible and unique people he's met by doing this show. And we even dive into the challenges they face when it comes to protecting their intellectual property, as well as the comedic art of video editing.

Every Israeli-Palestinian peace deal has failed. Could Trump's be any different?On Oct. 10, the Israeli cabinet approved a cease-fire deal brokered by the Trump administration, Turkey and Qatar. Since then, the living Israeli hostages have come home. Nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners in Israel have been freed. Israeli forces have partially withdrawn from the Gaza Strip, and they're allowing in more desperately needed aid. This is finally, hopefully, the end of this war.But that was just the first part of the deal. The next phase is a lot more ambitious — and ambiguous. And while President Trump said the region would now “live, God willing, in peace for all eternity,” history would suggest otherwise.Robert Malley has worked on Middle East policy under President Barack Obama, President Joe Biden and President Bill Clinton. Hussein Agha negotiated on the Palestinian side, working under both Yasir Arafat, the first president of the Palestinian Authority, and the P.A.'s current president, Mahmoud Abbas. Together they wrote a sweeping new history of attempts at peace, “Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine.” They join me to examine what could go right — or wrong — as the rest of the deal takes shape.Mentioned:Tomorrow Is Yesterday by Hussein Agha and Robert MalleyBook Recommendations:One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This by Omar El AkkadSay Nothing by Patrick Radden KeefeDirty Hands by Jean-Paul SartreThe Just Assassins by Albert CamusThe History of the Peloponnesian War by ThucydidesThe Man Without Qualities by Robert MusilHollywood Babylon by Kenneth AngerThoughts?

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett dives into a powerful monologue examining the ideological evolution of the Democratic Party, tracing its shift from a working-class coalition to a technocratic, elite-driven platform. He outlines how Bill Clinton’s embrace of globalism, Wall Street, and Beijing marked the start of a neoliberal era, later fueled by Silicon Valley’s cultural influence. Brett argues that the 2008 financial crisis catalyzed a progressive uprising—Occupy Wall Street, Bernie Sanders, and AOC—pushing the party further left. He warns that identity politics has replaced class concerns and claims the Democratic leadership now appeases campus radicals promoting anti-Semitism. Highlighting recent unrest at elite universities, he criticizes figures like Chuck Schumer for political cowardice. Brett contends that the “No Kings” movement represents a deeper rejection of Western values and civilization itself. He calls this a moment of moral clarity, urging Democrats to choose between mob rule and constitutional order, before the nation's democratic foundations are irreparably damaged Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

Newly released documents from the UK National Archives show that former Prime Minister Tony Blair met Jeffrey Epstein on May 14, 2002, at 10 Downing Street. The meeting was reportedly arranged at the behest of Peter Mandelson, who lobbied Blair's staff—particularly chief of staff Jonathan Powell—by describing Epstein as “safe” and a “friend” with extensive international connections. A briefing memo prepared for Blair characterized Epstein as a wealthy financial adviser with ties to Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew, and suggested that discussions could cover “science and international economic and monetary trends.” Blair's spokesperson later said the meeting lasted less than 30 minutes, was focused on UK-US politics, and that Blair had no further engagement with Epstein.The revelation casts new light on Blair's judgment and raises questions about how long Epstein was courted by political elites—even before his known criminal behavior became public. Critics argue that even if the meeting occurred pre-conviction, the decision to host Epstein at Downing Street hints at the institutional insulation and elite networks that allowed Epstein's influence to spread unchecked. That Mandelson actively promoted the meeting, praising Epstein's character and connections, further underscores how political actors were willing to legitimize him. The disclosure also fuels demands for accountability, especially as many now view early interactions like this as complicit steps in Epstein's broader web of patronage, power, and impunity.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Memo that government officials tried to bury shows Jeffrey Epstein met Sir Tony Blair in Downing Street... and Lord Mandelson set it up | Daily Mail Online

Born in South Africa during Apartheid, Sarah was dismayed when she first traveled to the United States on a family holiday as a young girl in early 1980s. There, she witnessed her beloved country embroiled in such tumultuous turmoil on TV, she believed she wasn't able to return home. It was her first lesson in media distortion, and the danger of trusting a single narrative.  Twenty-three years ago this week, Jeffrey Epstein arrived in Cape Town with Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, and Chris Tucker in tow. That same night, 20-year-old Juliette Bryant was lured into what would become one of the most harrowing and revealing chapters in the Epstein saga. Now, for the first time, her story is being told in her own words—through the diary she kept at the height of her captivity. In Blue Butterfly: Inside the Diary of an Epstein Survivor, author Sarah McCarthy—Juliette's close personal friend—brings Bryant's unfiltered voice to light, exposing not just Epstein's trafficking machine but the darker, lesser-known medical and psychological abuses he carried out on his victims. The book is now available for pre-order at TrineDay.com, ahead of its November 18 release. Unlike previous accounts that focus solely on Epstein's trafficking ring, Blue Butterfly reveals his obsession with eugenics, artificial intelligence, cloning, and transhumanism—and how he used victims like Juliette as unwitting participants in his schemes.   Want to watch: YouTube: Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

***Live-Aufzeichnung von «Alles klar, Amerika?» ein Jahr nach der Trump-Wahl: Am 19. November 2025 im Kraftwerk in Zürich. Alle Infos dazu findet Ihr hier: tagesanzeiger.ch/allesklar***US-Präsident Donald Trump zeigt keine Zweifel, dass Frieden einkehren wird im Nahen Osten. Gleichzeitig will Trump die Hamas entwaffnet sehen – notfalls auch unter dem Einsatz von Gewalt. Ein sogenanntes Board of Peace, eine Art Verwaltungsrat für den Frieden mit dem Vorsitzenden Donald Trump, soll die Oberhoheit über den Gazastreifen übernehmen. Dieses Board of Peace wiederum soll ein Komitee einsetzen, das konkret und vor Ort für den Wiederaufbau des Gazastreifens zuständig wäre. Heissen soll diese Organisation «Gaza International Transitional Authority», der internationale und palästinensische Experten angehören sollen.Im Gespräch für den Chefposten der «Gaza International Transitional Authority» ist unter anderen Tony Blair, der frühere britische Premierminister. Blair hat Nahosterfahrung, er war nach seiner Amtszeit Sondergesandter des Nahostquartetts – bestehend aus den USA, der EU, der UNO und Russland. Ausserdem kann Blair als Friedensstifter einen Erfolg vorweisen: Er war massgeblich am Karfreitagsabkommen in Nordirland beteiligt und wurde mit Lorbeeren für sein diplomatisches Verhandlungsgeschick überhäuft, als er sich mit dem irischen Premier Bertie Ahern und US-Präsident Bill Clinton auf den Friedensprozess in Nordirland einigte.Allerdings ist Blair nicht unumstritten: Sein Handicap ist, dass er 2003 vehement für den Irakkrieg eingetreten ist und die Lüge von Saddam Husseins Massenvernichtungswaffen als Wahrheit verbreitet hat. Die Ernennung des Briten Blair für diesen Posten hätte ausserdem einen kolonialistischen Beigeschmack, da Palästina einst britisches Mandatsgebiet war, was nicht nur palästinensische Kritiker monieren.Was braucht es, damit aus dem Waffenstillstand im Gazastreifen ein Friede im Nahen Osten wird? Kann man mit einer Terrororganisation wie der Hamas überhaupt verhandeln? Und könnte das Karfreitagsabkommen von Nordirland als Blaupause für den Friedensprozess dienen? Darüber unterhält sich Christof Münger, Leiter des Ressorts International, mit Tina Kempin Reuter, Professorin für Politikwissenschaft in Birmingham, Alabama, in einer neuen Folge des USA-Podcasts «Alles klar, Amerika?».Produzent: Noah Fend Mehr USA-Berichterstattung finden Sie auf unserer Webseite und in den Apps.

Doug Band, once Bill Clinton's closest aide and political gatekeeper, worked alongside the former president for nearly two decades. He co-founded the Clinton Global Initiative and later launched the advisory firm Teneo, which connected major corporate clients with powerful political figures. Band was instrumental in managing Clinton's post-White House image, philanthropy, and network of donors. But over time, he became disillusioned with the Clintons, eventually distancing himself after a falling-out with both Bill and Chelsea. His later comments shed new light on Clinton's long-denied ties to Jeffrey Epstein, raising questions about how close Clinton's circle really was to the disgraced financier.In a 2020 Vanity Fair profile, Band claimed that Clinton had indeed visited Epstein's private island, Little St. James, in January 2003—a claim the former president has repeatedly denied. Band also said Clinton took multiple flights on Epstein's private jet, which flight logs confirm, though Clinton's team insists those trips were tied to Clinton Foundation work. Band's assertions carried weight because of his insider access, but they also came years after his break from the Clintons, leading some to question whether personal bitterness played a role. Still, the details he shared reignited scrutiny of Clinton's Epstein connections, particularly given that Band himself was part of the inner machinery that once managed both men's overlapping worlds of power, money, and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The decision to delay Bill and Hillary Clinton's depositions in the congressional probe into Jeffrey Epstein has reignited public skepticism over whether powerful political figures will ever face genuine accountability. Bill Clinton's long-documented ties to Epstein — including flights on the financier's private jet and appearances in visitor logs — have made him a central figure of interest in the investigation. Yet, despite repeated assurances of transparency, the Clintons remain insulated behind legal maneuvering and procedural delays. Critics argue that such postponements underscore how the justice system bends for the well-connected, turning what should be a fact-finding process into a slow-motion exercise in political optics.The congressional inquiry, billed as a serious attempt to unravel Epstein's political network, is increasingly viewed as a performance rather than a pursuit of truth. While survivors and the public wait for substantive action, the Clintons' ability to delay testimony reinforces a familiar pattern — one where power shields itself from consequence. Observers say that unless Congress moves past symbolic gestures and compels full cooperation from all involved, the Epstein probe risks joining a long list of high-profile investigations that end not in justice, but in frustration and doubt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill and Hillary Clinton delay depositions in House Oversight panel's Jeffrey Epstein probe

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! Donald Trump viajó personalmente este lunes a Oriente Próximo para cerrar el acuerdo de paz en Gaza. La operación fue meticulosamente planificada: primero se liberaron los rehenes, una noticia que capturó la atención mundial mientras el Air Force One volaba hacia Israel. Tras visitar Jerusalén, donde fue ovacionado en el Knéset, Trump anunció el fin de la guerra en Gaza y su ambicioso plan para extender la paz a todo Oriente Próximo. En su discurso, calificó el acuerdo como el “amanecer histórico” de un nuevo Oriente Medio, aunque, eso sí, reconoció la dificultad de pacificar una región tan conflictiva. Lo de llevar la paz a esa parte del mundo ha sido un objetivo recurrente de varios presidentes de EEUU. Pero los resultados no siempre fueron los deseados. Jimmy Carter medió en el acuerdo entre Egipto e Israel en los 70, pero al mismo tiempo se desató una crisis con Irán. Bill Clinton impulsó los Acuerdos de Oslo, que se vinieron abajo unos años después con la segunda intifada. Los Bush, padre e hijo, intervinieron en Kuwait e Irak. Esta última intervención fue el origen de una ocupación muy prolongada. Trump ha preferido valerse de sus relaciones personales y de su talante transaccional para presionar a Hamás y acercar al acuerdo a los principales Gobiernos de la región. Tras pasar por Jerusalén, voló a Sharm el-Sheij, en Egipto, y se puso al frente de una gran cumbre con mandatarios de Europa y Oriente Medio. Una cumbre en la que no estaba Netanyahu. Algunos países árabes tratan de que no se les asocie con el primer ministro israelí por temor a que eso les cree problemas en casa, o quizá porque no tienen del todo claro que esto vaya a funcionar. La cumbre culminó con un compromiso de paz algo vago que firmaron todos. El plan es un punto de partida positivo en una región que lleva dos años sumida en conflictos desde el Mar Rojo hasta el Líbano. El acuerdo de Gaza es un triunfo para Trump, pero aún queda mucho trabajo por hacer. Hay que reunir a esa fuerza internacional que garantice la seguridad en Gaza, Hamas tiene que desarmarse de forma efectiva y verificada, y aún no se sabe quien financiará la reconstrucción de la franja de Gaza. Trump, por su parte, quiere ahora conseguir un acuerdo regional más ambicioso que incluya el programa nuclear iraní. Ese plan parte del marco del acuerdo de Abraham de 2020, gracias al cual Israel pudo normalizar relaciones con los Emiratos, Bahrein, Sudán y Marruecos, pero aún falta que se adhieran Estados importantes como Arabia Saudí. A diferencia de Bush en Irak, Trump no quiere soluciones militares. Su intención es que los países árabes reconozcan a Israel por interés propio. Pero la historia de Oriente medio está repleta de grandes planes fallidos, así que lo mejor será la cautela y la constancia. Esto último le corresponde a Trump, que si quiere transformar oriente medio deberá armarse de paciencia y mantener el esfuerzo hasta el final de su mandato.

BIO:The Reverend Dr. Starlette Thomas is a poet, practical theologian, and itinerant prophet for a coming undivided “kin-dom.” She is the director of The Raceless Gospel Initiative, named for her work and witness and an associate editor at Good Faith Media. Starlette regularly writes on the sociopolitical construct of race and its longstanding membership in the North American church. Her writings have been featured in Sojourners, Red Letter Christians, Free Black Thought, Word & Way, Plough, Baptist News Global and Nurturing Faith Journal among others. She is a frequent guest on podcasts and has her own. The Raceless Gospel podcast takes her listeners to a virtual church service where she and her guests tackle that taboo trinity— race, religion, and politics. Starlette is also an activist who bears witness against police brutality and most recently the cultural erasure of the Black Lives Matter Plaza in Washington, D.C. It was erected in memory of the 2020 protests that brought the world together through this shared declaration of somebodiness after the gruesome murder of George Perry Floyd, Jr. Her act of resistance caught the attention of the Associated Press. An image of her reclaiming the rubble went viral and in May, she was featured in a CNN article.Starlette has spoken before the World Council of Churches North America and the United Methodist Church's Council of Bishops on the color- coded caste system of race and its abolition. She has also authored and presented papers to the members of the Baptist World Alliance in Zurich, Switzerland and Nassau, Bahamas to this end. She has cast a vision for the future of religion at the National Museum of African American History and Culture's “Forward Conference: Religions Envisioning Change.” Her paper was titled “Press Forward: A Raceless Gospel for Ex- Colored People Who Have Lost Faith in White Supremacy.” She has lectured at The Queen's Foundation in Birmingham, U.K. on a baptismal pedagogy for antiracist theological education, leadership and ministries. Starlette's research interests have been supported by the Louisville Institute and the Lilly Foundation.

And one of my introductions to the concept of it was a book that's based on a documentary that's based on a book called Constantine Sword. And it talked about how prior to Constantine, Christians had the image of fish and life and fertility, and that is what they lived by. And then Constantine supposedly had this vision of a cross and it said, with this sign, you shall reign. And he married the church and the state. And ever since then, there's been this snowball effect of Christian empire through the Crusades, through manifest destiny, through all of these things that we're seeing play out in the United States now that aren't new. But I think there's something new about how it's playing out right now.Danielle (02:15):I was thinking about the doctrine of discovery and how that was the creation of that legal framework and ideology to justify the seizure of indigenous lands and the subjugation of indigenous peoples. And just how part of that doctrine you have to necessarily make the quote, humans that exist there, you have to make them vacant. Or even though they're a body, you have to see them as internally maybe empty or lacking or less. And that really becomes this frame. Well, a repeated frame.Jenny (03:08):Yep. Yeah. Yeah. And it feels like that's so much source to that when that dehumanization is ordained by God. If God is saying these people who we're not even going to look at as people, we're going to look at as objects, how do we get out of that?Danielle (03:39):I don't know. Well, definitely still in it. You can hear folks like Charlie Kirk talk about it and unabashedly, unashamedly turning point USA talk about doctrine of discovery brings me currently to these fishing boats that have been jetting around Venezuela. And regardless of what they're doing, the idea that you could just kill them regardless of international law, regardless of the United States law, which supposedly we have the right to a process, the right to due process, the right to show up in a court and we're presumed innocent. But this doctrine applies to people manifest destiny, this doctrine of discovery. It applies to others that we don't see as human and therefore can snuff out life. And I think now they're saying on that first boat, I think they've blown up four boats total. And on the first boat, one of the ladies is speaking out, saying they were out fishing and the size of the boat. I think that's where you get into reality. The size of the boat doesn't indicate a large drug seizure anyway. It's outside reality. And again, what do you do if they're smuggling humans? Did you just destroy all that human life? Or maybe they're just fishing. So I guess that doctrine and that destiny, it covers all of these immoral acts, it kind of washes them clean. And I guess that talking about Constantine, it feels like the empire needed a way to do that, to absolve themselves.Danielle (05:40):I know it gives me both comfort and makes me feel depressed when I think about people in 300 ad being, they're freaking throwing people into the lion's den again and people are cheering. And I have to believe that there were humans at that time that saw the barbarism for what it was. And that gives me hope that there have always been a few people in a system of tyranny and oppression that are like, what the heck is going on? And it makes me feel like, ugh. When does that get to be more than just the few people in a society kind of society? Or what does a society need to not need such violence? Because I think it's so baked in now to these white and Christian supremacy, and I don't know, in my mind, I don't think I can separate white supremacy from Christian supremacy because even before White was used as a legal term to own people and be able to vote, the legal term was Christian. And then when enslaved folks started converting to Christianity, they pivoted and said, well, no, not all Christians. It has to be white Christians. And so I think white supremacy was birthed out of a long history of Christian supremacy.Danielle (07:21):Yeah, it's weird. I remember growing up, and maybe you had this experience too, I remember when Schindler's List hit the theaters and you were probably too young, but Schindler's listed the theaters, and I remember sitting in a living room and having to convince my parents of why I wanted to see it. And I think I was 16, I don't remember. I was young and it was rated R and of course that was against our values to see rated R movies. But I really wanted to see this movie. And I talked and talked and talked and got to see this movie if anybody's watched Schindler's List, it's a story of a man who is out to make money, sees this opportunity to get free labor basically as part of the Nazi regime. And so he starts making trades to access free labor, meanwhile, still has women, enjoys a fine life, goes to church, has a pseudo faith, and as time goes along, I'm shortening the story, but he gets this accountant who he discovers he loves because his accountant makes him rich. He makes him rich off the labor. But the accountant is thinking, how do I save more lives and get them into this business with Schindler? Well, eventually they get captured, they get found out. All these things happen, right, that we know. And it becomes clear to Schindler that they're exterminating, they're wiping out an entire population.(09:01):I guess I come to that and just think about, as a young child, I remember watching that thinking, there's no way this would ever happen again because there's film, there's documentation. At the time, there were people alive from the Great war, the greatest generation like my grandfather who fought in World War ii. There were other people, we had the live stories. But now just a decade, 12, 13 years removed, it hasn't actually been that long. And the memory of watching a movie like Schindler's List, the impact of seeing what it costs a soul to take the life of other souls like that, that feels so far removed now. And that's what the malaise of the doctrine of Discovery and manifest destiny, I think have been doing since Constantine and Christianity. They've been able to wipe the memory, the historical memory of the evil done with their blessing.(10:06):And I feel like even this huge thing like the Holocaust, the memories being wiped, you can almost feel it. And in fact, people are saying, I don't know if they actually did that. I don't know if they killed all these Jewish peoples. Now you hear more denial even of the Holocaust now that those storytellers aren't passed on to the next life. So I think we are watching in real time how Christianity and Constantine were able to just wipe use empire to wipe the memory of the people so they can continue to gain riches or continue to commit atrocities without impunity just at any level. I guess that's what comes to mind.Jenny (10:55):Yeah, it makes me think of, I saw this video yesterday and I can't remember what representative it was in a hearing and she had written down a long speech or something that she was going to give, and then she heard during the trial the case what was happening was someone shared that there have been children whose parents have been abducted and disappeared because the children were asked at school, are your parents undocumented? And she said, I can't share what I had prepared because I'm caught with that because my grandfather was killed in the Holocaust because his children were asked at school, are your parents Jewish?(11:53):And my aunt took that guilt with her to her grave. And the amount of intergenerational transgenerational trauma that is happening right now, that never again is now what we are doing to families, what we are doing to people, what we are doing to children, the atrocities that are taking place in our country. Yeah, it's here. And I think it's that malaise has come over not only the past, but even current. I think people don't even know how to sit with the reality of the horror of what's happening. And so they just dissociate and they just check out and they don't engage the substance of what's happening.Danielle (13:08):Yeah. I tell a friend sometimes when I talk to her, I just say, I need you to tap in. Can you just tap in? Can you just carry the conversation or can you just understand? And I don't mean understand, believe a story. I mean feel the story. It's one thing to say the words, but it's another thing to feel them. And I think Constantine is a brilliant guy. He took a peaceful religion. He took a peaceful faith practice, people that literally the prior guy was throwing to the lions for sport. He took a people that had been mocked, a religious group that had been mocked, and he elevated them and then reunified them with that sword that you're talking about. And so what did those Christians have to give up then to marry themselves to empire? I don't know, but it seems like they kind of effed us over for eternity, right?Jenny (14:12):Yeah. Well, and I think that that's part of it. I think part of the malaise is the infatuation with eternity and with heaven. And I know for myself, when I was a missionary for many years, I didn't care about my body because this body, this light and momentary suffering paled in comparison to what was awaiting me. And so no matter what happened, it was a means to an end to spend eternity with Jesus. And so I think of empathy as us being able to feel something of ourselves in someone else. If I don't have grief and joy and sorrow and value for this body, I'm certainly not going to have it for other bodies. And I think the disembodiment of white Christian supremacy is what enables bodies to just tolerate and not consider the brutality of what we're seeing in the United States. What we're seeing in Congo, what we're seeing in Palestine, what we're seeing everywhere is still this sense of, oh, the ends are going to justify the means we're all going to, at least I'll be in heaven and everyone else can kind of figure out what they're going to do.I don't know, man. Yeah, maybe. I guess when you think about Christian nationalism versus maybe a more authentic faith, what separates them for youAbiding by the example that Jesus gave or not. I mean, Jesus was killed by the state because he had some very unpopular things to say about the state and the way in which he lived was very much like, how do I see those who are most oppressed and align myself with them? Whereas Christian nationalism is how do I see those who have the most power and align myselves with them?(16:48):And I think it is a question of alignment and orientation. And at the end of the day, who am I going to stand with even knowing and probably knowing that that may be to the detriment of my own body, but I do that not out of a sense of martyrdom, but out of a sense of integrity. I refuse. I think I really believe Jesus' words when he said, what good is it for a man to gain the world and lose his soul? And at the end of the day, what I'm fighting for is my own soul, and I don't want to give that up.Danielle (17:31):Hey, starlet, we're on to not giving up our souls to power.The Reverend Dr.Rev. Dr. Starlette (17:47):I'm sorry I'm jumping from one call to the next. I do apologize for my tardiness now, where were we?Danielle (17:53):We got on the subject of Constantine and how he married the sword with Christianity when it had been fish and fertile ground and et cetera, et cetera. Yeah, that's where we started. Yeah, that's where we started.Starlette (18:12):I'm going to get in where I fit in. Y'all keep going.Danielle (18:14):You get in. Yeah, you get in. I guess Jenny, for me and for you, starlet, the deep erasure of any sort of resemblance of I have to look back and I have to be willing to interrogate, I think, which is what a lot of people don't want to do. I grew up in a really conservative evangelical family and a household, and I have to interrogate, well, one, why did my mom get into that? Because Mexican, and number two, I watched so slowly as there was a celebration. I think it was after Bill Clinton had this Monica Lewinsky thing and all of this stuff happened. My Latino relatives were like, wait a minute, we don't like that. We don't like that. That doesn't match our values. And I remember this celebration of maybe now they're going to become Christians. I remember thinking that as a child, because for them to be a Democrat in my household and for them to hold different values around social issues meant that they weren't necessarily saved in my house and my way because they hadn't fully bought into empire in the way I know Jenny muted herself.(19:31):They hadn't fully bought into empire. And I slowly watched those family members in California kind of give way to conservatism the things that beckoned it. And honestly, a lot of it was married to religion and to what is going on today and not standing up for justice, not standing up for civil rights. I watched the movement go over, and it feels like at the expense of the memory of my grandfather and my great-grandfather who despised religion in some ways, my grandfather did not like going to church because he thought people were fake. He didn't believe them, and he didn't see what church had to do with being saved anyway. And so I think about him a lot and I think, oh, I got to hold onto that a little bit in the face of empire. But yeah, my mind just went off on that rabbit trail.Starlette (20:38):Oh, it's quite all right. My grandfather had similar convictions. My grandmother took the children to church with her and he stayed back. And after a while, the children were to decide that they didn't want to go anymore. And I remember him saying, that's enough. That's enough. You've done enough. They've heard enough. Don't make them go. But I think he drew some of the same conclusions, and I hold those as well, but I didn't grow up in a household where politics was even discussed. Folks were rapture ready, as they say, because they were kingdom minded is what they say now. And so there was no discussion of what was going on on the ground. They were really out of touch with, I'm sending right now. They were out of touch with reality. I have on pants, I have on full makeup, I have on earrings. I'm not dressed modestly in any way, shape, fashion or form.(21:23):It was a very externalized, visible, able to be observed kind of spirituality. And so I enter the spaces back at home and it's like going into a different world. I had to step back a bit and oftentimes I just don't say anything. I just let the room have it because you can't, in my experience, you can't talk 'em out of it. They have this future orientation where they live with their feet off the ground because Jesus is just around the corner. He's right in that next cloud. He's coming, and so none of this matters. And so that affected their political participation and discussion. There was certainly very minor activism, so I wasn't prepared by family members to show up in the streets like I do now. I feel sincerely called. I feel like it's a work of the spirit that I know where to put my feet at all, but I certainly resonate with what you would call a rant that led you down to a rabbit hole because it led me to a story about my grandfather, so I thank you for that. They were both right by the way,Danielle (22:23):I think so he had it right. He would sit in the very back of church sometimes to please my grandmother and to please my family, and he didn't have a cell phone, but he would sit there and go to sleep. He would take a nap. And I have to think of that now as resistance. And as a kid I was like, why does he do that? But his body didn't want to take it in.Starlette (22:47):That's rest as resistance from the Nat Bishop, Trisha Hersey, rest as act of defiance, rest as reparations and taking back my time that you're stealing from me by having me sit in the service. I see that.Danielle (23:02):I mean, Jenny, it seems like Constantine, he knew what to do. He gets Christians on his side, they knew how to gather organically. He then gets this mass megaphone for whatever he wants, right?Jenny (23:21):Yeah. I think about Adrian Marie Brown talks a lot about fractals and how what happens on a smaller scale is going to be replicated on larger scales. And so even though there's some sense of disjoint with denominations, I think generally in the United States, there is some common threads of that manifest destiny that have still found its way into these places of congregating. And so you're having these training wheels really even within to break it down into the nuclear family that James Dobson wanted everyone to focus on was a very, very narrow white, patriarchal Christian family. And so if you rehearse this on these smaller scales, then you can rehearse it in your community, then you can rehearse it, and it just bubbles and bubbles and balloons out into what we're seeing happen, I think.Yeah, the nuclear family and then the youth movements, let us, give us your youth, give us your kids. Send us your kids and your youth to our camps.Jenny (24:46):Great. I grew up in Colorado and I was probably 10 or 11 when the Columbine shooting happened, and I remember that very viscerally. And the immediate conversation was not how do we protect kids in school? It was glorifying this one girl that maybe or maybe did not say yes when the shooters asked, do you still believe in God? And within a year her mom published a book about it. And that was the thing was let's use this to glorify martyrdom. And I think it is different. These were victims in school and I think any victim of the shooting is horrifying. And I think we're seeing a similar level of that martyrdom frenzy with Charlie Kirk right now. And what we're not talking about is how do we create a safer society? What we're talking about, I'm saying, but I dunno. What I'm hearing of the white Christian communities is how are we glorifying Charlie Kirk as a martyr and what power that wields when we have someone that we can call a martyr?Starlette (26:27):No, I just got triggered as soon as you said his name.(26:31):Just now. I think grieving a white supremacist is terrifying. Normalizing racist rhetoric is horrifying. And so I look online in disbelief. I unfollowed and blocked hundreds of people on social media based on their comments about what I didn't agree with. Everything he said, got a lot of that. I'm just not interested. I think they needed a martyr for the race war that they're amping for, and I would like to be delivered from the delusion that is white body supremacy. It is all exhausting. I don't want to be a part of the racial imagination that he represents. It is not a new narrative. We are not better for it. And he's not a better person because he's died. The great Biggie Smalls has a song that says you're nobody until somebody kills you. And I think it's appropriate. Most people did not know who he was. He was a podcaster. I'm also looking kind of cross-eyed at his wife because that's not, I served as a pastor for more than a decade. This is not an expression of grief. There's nothing like anything I've seen for someone who was assassinated, which I disagree with.(28:00):I've just not seen widows take the helm of organizations and given passion speeches and make veil threats to audiences days before the, as we would say in my community, before the body has cooled before there is a funeral that you'll go down and take pictures. That could be arguably photo ops. It's all very disturbing to me. This is a different measure of grief. I wrote about it. I don't know what, I've never heard of a sixth stage of grief that includes fighting. We're not fighting over anybody's dead body. We're not even supposed to do it with Jesus. And so I just find it all strange that before the man is buried, you've already concocted a story wherein opposing forces are at each other's throats. And it's all this intergalactic battle between good and bad and wrong, up and down, white and black. It's too much.(28:51):I think white body supremacy has gotten out of hand and it's incredibly theatrical. And for persons who have pulled back from who've decent whiteness, who've de racialize themselves, it's foolishness. Just nobody wants to be involved in this. It's a waste of time. White body supremacy and racism are wastes of time. Trying to prove that I'm a human being or you're looking right at is a waste of time. And people just want to do other things, which is why African-Americans have decided to go to sleep, to take a break. We're not getting ready to spin our wheels again, to defend our humanity, to march for rights that are innate, to demand a dignity that comes with being human. It's just asinine.(29:40):I think you would be giving more credence to the statements themselves by responding. And so I'd rather save my breath and do my makeup instead because trying to defend the fact that I'm a glorious human being made in the image of God is a waste of time. Look at me. My face is beat. It testifies for me. Who are you? Just tell me that I don't look good and that God didn't touch me. I'm with the finger of love as the people say, do you see this beat? Let me fall back. So you done got me started and I blame you. It's your fault for the question. So no, that's my response to things like that. African-American people have to insulate themselves with their senses of ness because he didn't have a kind word to say about African-American people, whether a African-American pilot who is racialized as black or an African-American woman calling us ignorance saying, we're incompetence. If there's no way we could have had these positions, when African-American women are the most agreed, we're the most educated, how dare you? And you think, I'm going to prove that I'm going to point to degrees. No, I'll just keep talking. It will make itself obvious and evident.(30:45):Is there a question in that? Just let's get out of that. It triggers me so bad. Like, oh, that he gets a holiday and it took, how many years did it take for Martin Luther King Junior to get a holiday? Oh, okay. So that's what I mean. The absurdity of it all. You're naming streets after him hasn't been dead a year. You have children coloring in sheets, doing reports on him. Hasn't been a few months yet. We couldn't do that for Martin Luther King. We couldn't do that for Rosa Parks. We couldn't do that for any other leader, this one in particular, and right now, find that to beI just think it just takes a whole lot of delusion and pride to keep puffing yourself up and saying, you're better than other people. Shut up, pipe down. Or to assume that everybody wants to look like you or wants to be racialized as white. No, I'm very cool in who I'm, I don't want to change as the people say in every lifetime, and they use these racialized terms, and so I'll use them and every lifetime I want to come back as black. I don't apologize for my existence. I love it here. I don't want to be racialized as white. I'm cool. That's the delusion for me that you think everyone wants to look like. You think I would trade.(32:13):You think I would trade for that, and it looks great on you. I love what it's doing for you. But as for me in my house, we believe in melanin and we keep it real cute over here. I just don't have time. I think African-Americans minoritized and otherwise, communities should invest their time in each other and in ourselves as opposed to wasting our breath, debating people. We can't debate white supremacists. Anyway, I think I've talked about that the arguments are not rooted in reason. It's rooted in your dehumanization and equating you with three fifths of a human being who's in charge of measurements, the demonizing of whiteness. It's deeply problematic for me because it puts them in a space of creator. How can you say how much of a human being that's someone? This stuff is absurd. And so I've refuse to waste my breath, waste my life arguing with somebody who doesn't have the power, the authority.(33:05):You don't have the eyesight to tell me if I'm human or not. This is stupid. We're going to do our work and part of our work is going to sleep. We're taking naps, we're taking breaks, we're putting our feet up. I'm going to take a nap after this conversation. We're giving ourselves a break. We're hitting the snooze button while staying woke. There's a play there. But I think it's important that people who are attacked by white body supremacy, not give it their energy. Don't feed into the madness. Don't feed into the machine because it'll eat you alive. And I didn't get dressed for that. I didn't get on this call. Look at how I look for that. So that's what that brings up. Okay. It brings up the violence of white body supremacy, the absurdity of supremacy at all. The delusion of the racial imagination, reading a 17th century creation onto a 21st century. It's just all absurd to me that anyone would continue to walk around and say, I'm better than you. I'm better than you. And I'll prove it by killing you, lynching you, raping your people, stealing your people, enslaving your people. Oh, aren't you great? That's pretty great,Jenny (34:30):I think. Yeah, I think it is. I had a therapist once tell me, it's like you've had the opposite of a psychotic break because when that is your world and that's all, it's so easy to justify and it makes sense. And then as soon as you step out of it, you're like, what the what? And then it makes it that much harder to understand. And this is my own, we talked about this last week, but processing what is my own path in this of liberation and how do I engage people who are still in that world, who are still related to me, who are, and in a way that isn't exhausting for I'm okay being exhausted if it's going to actually bear something, if it's just me spinning my wheels, I don't actually see value in that. And for me, what began to put cracks in that was people challenging my sense of superiority and my sense of knowing what they should do with their bodies. Because essentially, I think a lot of how I grew up was similar maybe and different from how you were sharing Danielle, where it was like always vote Republican because they're going to be against abortion and they're going to be against gay marriage. And those were the two in my world that were the things that I was supposed to vote for no matter what. And now just seeing how far that no matter what is willing to go is really terrifying.Danielle (36:25):Yeah, I agree. Jenny. I mean, again, I keep talking about him, but he's so important to me. The idea that my great grandfather to escape religious oppression would literally walk 1,950 miles and would leave an oppressive system just in an attempt to get away. That walk has to mean something to me today. You can't forget. All of my family has to remember that he did a walk like that. How many of us have walked that far? I mean, I haven't ever walked that far in just one instance to escape something. And he was poor because he couldn't even pay for his mom's burial at the Catholic church. So he said, let me get out of this. And then of course he landed with the Methodist and he was back in the fire again. But I come back to him, and that's what people will do to get out of religious oppression. They will give it an effort and when they can. And so I think it's important to remember those stories. I'm off on my tangent again now because it feels so important. It's a good one.Starlette (37:42):I think it's important to highlight the walking away from, to putting one foot in front of the other, praying with your feet(37:51):That it's its own. You answer your own prayer by getting away from it. It is to say that he was done with it, and if no one else was going to move, he was going to move himself that he didn't wait for the change in the institution. Let's just change directions and get away from it. And I hate to even imagine what he was faced with and that he had to make that decision. And what propelled him to walk that long with that kind of energy to keep momentum and to create that amount of distance. So for me, it's very telling. I ran away at 12. I had had it, so I get it. This is the last time you're going to hit me.Not going to beat me out of my sleep. I knew that at 12. This is no place for me. So I admire people who get up in the dead of night, get up without a warning, make it up in their mind and said, that's the last time, or This is not what I'm going to do. This is not the way that I want to be, and I'm leaving. I admire him. Sounds like a hero. I think we should have a holiday.Danielle (38:44):And then imagine telling that. Then you're going to tell me that people like my grandfather are just in it. This is where it leaves reality for me and leaves Christianity that he's just in it to steal someone's job. This man worked the lemon fields and then as a side job in his retired years, moved up to Sacramento, took in people off death row at Folsom Prison, took 'em to his home and nursed them until they passed. So this is the kind a person that will walk 1,950 miles. They'll do a lot of good in the world, and we're telling people that they can't come here. That's the kind of people that are walking here. That's the kind of people that are coming here. They're coming here to do whatever they can. And then they're nurturing families. They're actually living out in their families what supposed Christians are saying they want to be. Because people in these two parent households and these white families, they're actually raising the kind of people that will shoot Charlie Kirk. It's not people like my grandfather that walked almost 2000 miles to form a better life and take care of people out of prisons. Those aren't the people forming children that are, you'reStarlette (40:02):Going to email for that. The deacons will you in the parking lot for that one. You you're going to get a nasty tweet for that one. Somebody's going to jump off in the comments and straighten you out at,Danielle (40:17):I can't help it. It's true. That's the reality. Someone that will put their feet and their faith to that kind of practice is not traveling just so they can assault someone or rob someone. I mean, yes, there are people that have done that, but there's so much intentionality about moving so far. It does not carry the weight of, can you imagine? Let me walk 2000 miles to Rob my neighbor. That doesn't make any sense.Starlette (40:46):Sounds like it's own kind of pilgrimage.Jenny (40:59):I have so many thoughts, but I think whiteness has just done such a number on people. And I'm hearing each of you and I'm thinking, I don't know that I could tell one story from any of my grandparents. I think that that is part of whiteness. And it's not that I didn't know them, but it's that the ways in which Transgenerational family lines are passed down are executed for people in considered white bodies where it's like my grandmother, I guess I can't tell some stories, but she went to Polish school and in the States and was part of a Polish community. And then very quickly on polls were grafted into whiteness so that they could partake in the GI Bill. And so that Polish heritage was then lost. And that was not that long ago, but it was a severing that happened. And some of my ancestors from England, that severing happened a long time ago where it's like, we are not going to tell the stories of our ancestors because that would actually reveal that this whole white thing is made up. And we actually have so much more to us than that. And so I feel like the social privilege that has come from that, but also the visceral grief of how I would want to know those stories of my ancestors that aren't there. Because in part of the way that whiteness operates,Starlette (42:59):I'm glad you told that story. Diane de Prima, she tells about that, about her parents giving up their Italian ness, giving up their heritage and being Italian at home and being white in public. So not changing their name, shortening their name, losing their accent, or dropping the accent. I'm glad that you said that. I think that's important. But like you said though, if you tell those stories and it shakes up the power dynamic for whiteness, it's like, oh, but there are books how the Irish became White, the Making of Whiteness working for Whiteness, read all the books by David Broer on Whiteness Studies. But I'm glad that you told us. I think it's important, and I love that you named it as a severing. Why did you choose that word in particular?Jenny (43:55):I had the privilege a few years ago of going to Poland and doing an ancestry trip. And weeks before I went, an extended cousin in the States had gotten connected with our fifth cousin in Poland. We share the fifth grandparents. And this cousin of mine took us around to the church where my fifth great grandparents got married and these just very visceral places. And I had never felt the land that my ancestors know in my body. And there was something really, really powerful of that. And so I think of severing as I have been cut off from that lineage and that heritage because of whiteness. And I feel very, very grateful for the ways in which that is beginning to heal and beginning to mend. And we can tell truer stories of our ancestry and where we come from and the practices of our people. And I think it is important to acknowledge the cost and the privilege that has come from that severing in order to get a job that was not reserved for people that weren't white. My family decided, okay, well we'll just play the part. We will take on that role of whiteness because that will then give us that class privilege and that socioeconomic privilege that reveals how much of a construct whitenessStarlette (45:50):A racial contract is what Charles W. Mills calls it, that there's a deal made in a back room somewhere that you'll trade your sense of self for another. And so that it doesn't, it just unravels all the ways in which white supremacy, white body supremacy, pos itself, oh, that we're better. I think people don't say anything because it unravels those lies, those tongue twisters that persons have spun over the centuries, that it's really just an agreement that we've decided that we'll make ourselves the majority so that we can bully everybody else. And nobody wants to be called that. Nobody wants to be labeled greedy. I'm just trying to provide for my family, but at what expense? At who else's expense. But I like to live in this neighborhood and I don't want to be stopped by police. But you're willing to sacrifice other people. And I think that's why it becomes problematic and troublesome because persons have to look at themselves.(46:41):White body supremacy doesn't offer that reflection. If it did, persons would see how monstrous it is that under the belly of the beast, seeing the underside of that would be my community. We know what it costs for other people to feel really, really important because that's what whiteness demands. In order to look down your nose on somebody, you got to stand on somebody's back. Meanwhile, our communities are teaching each other to stand. We stand on the shoulders of giants. It's very communal. It's a shared identity and way of being. Whereas whiteness demands allegiance by way of violence, violent taking and grabbing it is quite the undoing. We have a lot of work to do. But I am proud of you for telling that story.Danielle (47:30):I wanted to read this quote by Gloria, I don't know if you know her. Do you know her? She writes, the struggle is inner Chicano, Indio, American Indian, Molo, Mexicano, immigrant, Latino, Anglo and power working class Anglo black, Asian. Our psyches resemble the border towns and are populated by the same people. The struggle has always been inner and has played out in outer terrains. Awareness of our situation must come before interchanges and which in turn come before changes in society. Nothing happens in the real world unless it first happens in the images in our heads.(48:16):So Jenny, when you're talking, you had some image in your head before you went to Poland, before it became reality. You had some, it didn't start with just knowing your cousin or whatever it happened before that. Or for me being confronted and having to confront things with my husband about ways we've been complicit or engaged in almost like the word comes gerrymandering our own future. That's kind of how it felt sometimes Luis and I and how to become aware of that and take away those scales off our own eyes and then just sit in the reality, oh no, we're really here and this is where we're really at. And so where are we going to go from here? And starlet, you've talked from your own position. That's just what comes to mind. It's something that happens inside. I mean, she talks about head, I think more in feelings in my chest. That's where it happens for me. But yeah, that's what comes to mind.Starlette (49:48):With. I feel like crying because of what we've done to our bodies and the bodies of other people. And we still can't see ourselves not as fully belonging to each other, not as beloved, not as holy.It's deeply saddening that for all the time that we have here together for all the time that we'll share with each other, we'll spend much of it not seeing each other at all.Danielle (50:57):My mind's going back to, I think I might've shared this right before you joined Starla, where it was like, I really believe the words of Jesus that says, what good is it for someone to gain the world and lose their soul? And that's what I hear. And what I feel is this soul loss. And I don't know how to convince other people. And I don't know if that's the point that their soul is worth it, but I think I've, not that I do it perfectly, but I think I've gotten to the place where I'm like, I believe my interiority is worth more than what it would be traded in for.(51:45):And I think that will be a lifelong journey of trying to figure out how to wrestle with a system. I will always be implicated in because I am talking to you on a device that was made from cobalt, from Congo and wearing clothes that were made in other countries. And there's no way I can make any decision other than to just off myself immediately. And I'm not saying I'm doing that, but I'm saying the part of the wrestle is that this is, everything is unresolved. And how do I, like what you said, Danielle, what did you say? Can you tune into this conversation?Jenny (52:45):Yeah. And how do I keep tapping in even when it means engaging my own implication in this violence? It's easier to be like, oh, those people over there that are doing those things. And it's like, wait, now how do I stay situated and how I'm continually perpetuating it as well, and how do I try to figure out how to untangle myself in that? And I think that will be always I,Danielle (53:29):He says, the US Mexican border as like an open wound where the third world grates against the first and bleeds. And before a scab forms it hemorrhages again, the lifeblood of two worlds. Two worlds merging to form a third country, a border culture. Borders are set up to define the places that are safe and unsafe to distinguish us from them. A border is a dividing line, a narrow strip along a steep edge. A borderland is a vague and undetermined place created by the emotional residue of an unnatural boundary is it is in a constant state of transition. They're prohibited and forbidden arts inhabitants. And I think that as a Latina that really describes and mixed with who my father is and that side that I feel like I live like the border in me, it feels like it grates against me. So I hear you, Jenny, and I feel very like all the resonance, and I hear you star led, and I feel a lot of resonance there too. But to deny either thing would make me less human because I am human with both of those parts of me.(54:45):But also to engage them brings a lot of grief for both parts of me. And how does that mix together? It does feel like it's in a constant state of transition. And that's partly why Latinos, I think particularly Latino men bought into this lie of power and played along. And now they're getting shown that no, that part of you that's European, that part never counted at all. And so there is no way to buy into that racialized system. There's no way to put a down payment in and come out on the other side as human. As soon as we buy into it, we're less human. Yeah. Oh, Jenny has to go in a minute. Me too. But starlet, you're welcome to join us any Thursday. Okay.Speaker 1 (55:51):Afternoon. Bye. Thank you.

In Part 1 of a two-part podcast series, Mama B sits down with a dear, long-time family friend to get his viewpoint on a few things they greatly disagree about and a few things they totally see eye to eye on. While Mama B is a blue leaning Independent, this friend went from being a Democrat for (Bill) Clinton in the 1990's to telling Mama B he is now “more MAGA than most MAGA people.” By the way, he was at the January 6th Insurrection and in this podcast episode he will tell listeners why he was there and what he did and didn't see, what he did and didn't do. The constitution and the Electoral College are briefly mentioned and the enmeshed topics of the killing of Charlie Kirk and free speech are also discussed.

Michael Wolff developed a notably close and complicated relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, one that blurred the line between journalist and confidant. Epstein served as both a source and a subject for Wolff, who claimed to have recorded more than 100 hours of conversations with him. Those talks reportedly covered Epstein's relationships with global elites, his political ambitions, and his fascination with influence. Epstein even floated the idea of Wolff writing his biography, reflecting how much he trusted Wolff—or at least how much he wanted his version of events recorded by someone with credibility in media circles. Wolff later referenced these recordings in interviews and writings, including insights into Epstein's ties to figures like Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, further cementing his access as unusually deep for any journalist.That closeness, however, has long been controversial. Critics have accused Wolff of being too comfortable with Epstein, suggesting the relationship compromised his objectivity and gave Epstein an avenue to shape his own public image. Wolff's recollections of Epstein's final days—especially his claim that Epstein's last message to him was “Still hanging around”—added a sensational layer to their connection, fueling speculation about how much Wolff really knew. The result is a dynamic that sits somewhere between journalism and complicity: Wolff gained remarkable access, but at a cost that continues to raise ethical and moral questions about covering a predator who thrived on manipulation.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Host Faust Checho exposes how Bill Clinton's rise from Arkansas governor to president completed the Bush–Clinton blueprint: turning the Boys on the Tracks cover-up, Whitewater, Waco, and the Oklahoma City bombing into milestones in the creation of America's modern security state.This is Part 5, the finale of Faust's explosive series exposing how the Bush–Clinton machine evolved from covert wars to total domestic control.As the Bush–Clinton dynasty tightened its grip, Arkansas became the prototype for covert power — a proving ground where autopsies were altered, investigators silenced, and scandals rebranded as reform. In this explosive finale of the Bush-Clinton corruption series, Faust traces how scandal in Saline County evolved into the Clinton Body Count, how REX 84 and Operation Night Train foreshadowed a domestic war machine, and how policies like the 1994 Crime Bill, NAFTA, and the Telecommunications Act transformed America into the surveillance state we live in today. From Mena to the Rose Law Firm, from Haiti to Kosovo, the same networks of money, drugs, and blackmail that fueled Iran-Contra were refined under Bill Clinton — and exported worldwide.Topics in this episode include:

Between 1946 and 1953, at a Massachusetts institution called the Walter E. Fernald State School, dozens of boys were recruited into something called a “Science Club.” They were promised special perks — better food, baseball games, trips to the beach. What they weren't told was that their breakfast oatmeal and milk were secretly laced with radioactive iron and calcium. The so-called nutritional study was designed by scientists from MIT, funded in part by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, and co-sponsored by Quaker Oats, which supplied the cereal. The goal was to measure how well the body absorbed minerals from food — but the method violated every basic rule of ethics and consent. The children, many labeled “feebleminded” or “morons” by the state, were wards of Massachusetts — boys without parents, without rights, and without the ability to refuse. Some were even injected with radioactive materials in follow-up experiments. None were told what was happening to them. When the truth came out decades later, public outrage was immediate. Survivors like Fred Boyce came forward, saying the greatest harm wasn't the radiation — it was being treated like an object, not a person. In 1998, MIT and Quaker Oats settled a class-action lawsuit for $1.85 million, and President Bill Clinton issued an apology on behalf of the federal government for Cold War-era human radiation testing. But behind the headlines is a bigger story — about power, secrecy, and the belief that science justifies anything. In this episode, we dig deep into the Fernald radioactive oatmeal experiments — what really happened, who was responsible, what became of the victims, and how it changed human-subject research forever.

Doug Band, once Bill Clinton's closest aide and political gatekeeper, worked alongside the former president for nearly two decades. He co-founded the Clinton Global Initiative and later launched the advisory firm Teneo, which connected major corporate clients with powerful political figures. Band was instrumental in managing Clinton's post-White House image, philanthropy, and network of donors. But over time, he became disillusioned with the Clintons, eventually distancing himself after a falling-out with both Bill and Chelsea. His later comments shed new light on Clinton's long-denied ties to Jeffrey Epstein, raising questions about how close Clinton's circle really was to the disgraced financier.In a 2020 Vanity Fair profile, Band claimed that Clinton had indeed visited Epstein's private island, Little St. James, in January 2003—a claim the former president has repeatedly denied. Band also said Clinton took multiple flights on Epstein's private jet, which flight logs confirm, though Clinton's team insists those trips were tied to Clinton Foundation work. Band's assertions carried weight because of his insider access, but they also came years after his break from the Clintons, leading some to question whether personal bitterness played a role. Still, the details he shared reignited scrutiny of Clinton's Epstein connections, particularly given that Band himself was part of the inner machinery that once managed both men's overlapping worlds of power, money, and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Pete Hegseth has declared war on 'fat generals' and DEI in the US army - but why have standards slipped? Chris Caldwell joins Freddy Gray to discuss why the current administration feels so passionately about forcing a 'major cultural shift' in the military, plus the legacies of Bill Clinton's 'don't ask, don't tell' policy and Joe Biden's acceptance of transgender troops. They also talk about the differences between America's 'Marshal spirit' and British 'obsession' with World War Two, and why one country is more deferential to their veterans than the other.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Juanita Broaddrick : You'd Better Put Some Ice On That: How I Survived Being Raped by Bill Clintonn 1999, Juanita Broaddrick burst into the public consciousness when she accused President Bill Clinton on national television of raping her in 1978 as he ran for governor in Arkansas. It was a TV appearance she dreaded and never wanted, but felt compelled to squash the rumors: it was rape. Now, with award-winning former investigative journalist Nick Lulli, she tells her story of survival; from the assault at the hands of the future president, to the veiled threats by a seemingly complicit presidential wannabe Hillary Rodham Clinton; Broaddrick believes now is the time to set the record straight and ensure victims everywhere are believed.https://amzn.to/4pYdWdXBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

The topic of this episode is, what are budget rescissions and pocket rescissions?Rescissions have been in the news recently. This past July President Donald J. Trump sent the House and Senate a rescissions message. This memorandum requested that Congress rescind, or take back, spending authority it had previously granted. Congress passed the legislation, which cut $9 billion from foreign aid, the U.S. Institute for Peace, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. A rescission of funds has not occurred since 1999, when former President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, struck a deal with the Republican-held House and Senate.Now the Trump administration is attempting a maneuver called a “pocket rescission.” What's a pocket rescission? To answer that question I have as my guest my colleague, Dr. Philip Wallach. He is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. He is a colleague and a friend. At AEI he studies America's separation of powers, with a focus on regulatory policy issues and the relationship between Congress and the administrative state. His latest book is Why Congress (Oxford University Press).Click here for a full transcript of the episode.

It cost an awful lot of money to drag every single general and admiral to Quantico, Virginia for a glorified pep rally that probably would have been better as an email. Pete Hegseth opened with, “Welcome to the Department of War.” He talked about training and grooming standards and decried “fat generals.” Trump then took the stage and talked about how successful it's been to have the National Guard in some American cities before going on another strange rambling rant. When Google, which owns YouTube, banned Donald Trump from its platform after the January 6th insurrection of 2021, it did so because Trump was fomenting the very violence he now accuses the left of. YouTube said Trump's ban was “in light of concerns about the ongoing potential for violence.” Trump sued over the ban and now Google is settling. They will pay more than $24 million to a nonprofit set up to build the White House ballroom. The venue, which is set to be bigger than the footprint of the White House, will be opulent and dripping with gold touches and chandeliers. Meanwhile, Trump has cut Meals on Wheels programs for seniors who have trouble getting food, food stamps for the hungry and Medicaid services for the poor. It brings to mind French royalty's complete out of touch failure to help those struggling, “Let them eat cake!” Trump had a major cognitive incident while talking to reporters. When asked if he would be attending a massive upcoming military meeting, he didn't understand the question - despite it being clarified three times. Finally, Vice President JD Vance had to step in to answer. It made Trump look old and incompetent and begs the question …Is Trump even capable of being in charge? Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston will discuss. Mark shares a conversation with Paul Glastris, of the Washington Monthy.

Bill Clinton's relationship with the Fanjul brothers—sugar barons from Florida and one of the wealthiest and most politically connected families in America—has long been a matter of public scrutiny. The Fanjuls, Alfonso and José “Pepe” Fanjul, built a sugar empire worth billions, aided in large part by U.S. government subsidies and favorable trade policies. Clinton, during his presidency, was known to have cultivated ties with the brothers, reportedly even taking phone calls from Alfonso Fanjul while in the Oval Office. This relationship raised eyebrows because the Fanjuls were major political donors and lobbyists for the sugar industry, one of the most protected and subsidized sectors in the U.S. economy, despite persistent criticism about labor practices, environmental damage in the Everglades, and anticompetitive monopolistic power.Steve Scully, a former telecommunications contractor who worked extensively on Little Saint James, claimed in the Netflix documentary Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich that he saw Bill Clinton sitting alone with Epstein on the porch of the island's main house. Scully, who said he had been to the island over a hundred times between 1999 and 2005, insisted there were no other guests present during that moment. His account added fuel to speculation about the former president's connections to Epstein and the time he may have spent on the island.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Guest: Robert Reich is Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley.  He has served in three presidential administrations, Republican and Democrat, as Secretary of Labor under Bill Clinton. He is the author of several books including his latest Coming Up Short: A Memoir of My America. The post Robert Reich: His Life and Political Journey appeared first on KPFA.

Bill Clinton's repeated use of Jeffrey Epstein's private jet remains one of the most glaring and troubling aspects of their association, undercutting every attempt by the former president to minimize the depth of their relationship. Flight logs reveal that Clinton flew on Epstein's plane dozens of times, traveling to destinations across the globe under the guise of humanitarian work tied to the Clinton Foundation. Yet the sheer number of trips—some of them occurring without Secret Service protection—raises uncomfortable questions about what, exactly, Clinton was doing on these flights and why secrecy seemed necessary. Reports that Clinton was such a frequent passenger that he even had a preferred seat on the plane only reinforce the impression that this was not a casual or incidental relationship, but a sustained and comfortable arrangement. For a man of Clinton's stature and experience, the defense that he simply didn't know who he was associating with strains credibility to the breaking point.The optics of Clinton's repeated presence on a plane nicknamed the “Lolita Express” are damning in themselves, but the broader context makes it worse. Epstein's reputation, even before his 2008 conviction, was hardly a mystery in elite circles, and yet Clinton not only tolerated but embraced the relationship, treating Epstein's jet as a reliable means of travel. That level of reliance suggests not just convenience, but trust and familiarity—an intimacy of association that cannot be brushed aside with vague claims of philanthropy. Critics argue that Clinton's pattern of behavior exemplifies the entitlement of political elites: secure in the belief that their actions would never be scrutinized, they engaged with Epstein freely, assuming the scandal would never surface. Today, the image of Clinton as a “regular” on Epstein's plane is more than a bad look; it is a lasting stain that calls into question his judgment, his honesty, and his willingness to blur lines between personal indulgence and public responsibility.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Clinton family's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has been one of the most scrutinized and damaging associations to emerge from the scandal, exposing a troubling web of proximity, power, and privilege. Bill Clinton's documented flights aboard Epstein's private jet—the so-called “Lolita Express”—numbered more than two dozen, with flight logs showing trips to Europe, Asia, and Africa, sometimes without his Secret Service detail. While Clinton has insisted these trips were tied to philanthropic work through the Clinton Foundation, the sheer frequency and secrecy surrounding certain flights raise glaring red flags. Adding to this is Clinton's presence at Epstein's Little St. James island and his connection to Ghislaine Maxwell, who attended Chelsea Clinton's wedding in 2010—long after Epstein's first conviction. These details collectively paint a picture not of incidental overlap, but of deliberate and sustained association with a man whose reputation as a predator was already widely known.Defenders of the Clintons argue that Epstein, like many wealthy figures, sought to ingratiate himself with power players and that Clinton's interactions were primarily transactional or charity-driven. Yet this explanation does little to erase the optics of a former U.S. president and his inner circle maintaining close contact with a convicted sex offender. Even if Clinton was never directly implicated in Epstein's crimes, his repeated willingness to leverage Epstein's resources—and the willingness of his family to include figures like Maxwell in intimate social functions—suggests either staggering negligence or a calculated gamble that the association would remain buried. For a political dynasty built on the currency of influence, the Epstein connection remains a gaping vulnerability, one that feeds into broader skepticism about how elites shield themselves while victims are left behind.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Former President **Bill Clinton's inscription to Ghislaine Maxwell — “To Ghislaine, with love” — in a signed copy of his memoir is more than just a casual gesture; it reeks of intimacy and poor judgment. At a time when Maxwell was already deeply enmeshed in Epstein's world, such a public figure choosing to gift her a personalized keepsake raises troubling questions about the depth of his relationship with her. It underscores the hypocrisy of powerful leaders who later sought to distance themselves from Epstein and Maxwell, even as evidence continues to surface showing they were more than passing acquaintances.In 2002, a photograph surfaced showing former President Bill Clinton receiving a shoulder massage at an airport from Chauntae Davies, who later became one of Jeffrey Epstein's accusers. The image was taken during a stopover while Clinton's jet refueled en route to Africa on what was described as a humanitarian mission. Davies was 22 at the time. She later said that the massage was solicited by Ghislaine Maxwell, and that Clinton had complained of stiffness from sleeping in his seat. She characterized Clinton's behavior as “perfect gentleman” and denied any inappropriate conduct occurredto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

A DOJ investigator claims Jeffrey Epstein was a CIA asset protected by intelligence agencies, while confirming Bill Clinton was tied to alleged rapes on the Lolita Express and Trump was not. The PBD Podcast panel breaks down James O'Keefe's scoop, DOJ pushback, and the larger battle over accountability.

Robert Reich, Co-founder of Inequality Media and President Bill Clinton's Secretary of Labor, joins the Beast's Jaonna Coles to warn us that the U.S. is sliding into authoritarianism. He lays out how Trump's White House distorts economic data, bullies CEOs, corrupts crypto markets, and undermines global alliances, while billionaires and media titans enable his rise. Reich also calls out cowardice among university leaders, corporate chiefs, and even Democrats who should be defending constitutional freedoms but instead bow to fear and greed. From Disney's censorship of Jimmy Kimmel to the silence of Silicon Valley, he argues that ordinary citizens may have to step in where elites have failed. Can American democracy survive when its leaders refuse to lead, or is it up to the public to stop Trump's march toward tyranny?  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Tommy & Ben grit their teeth and dive into Trump's rambling, insulting address at the United Nations and fact-check his ridiculous claim that he solved seven wars. They cover Trump's proposed bank bailout for Argentina, his threat to re-invade Afghanistan, Pete Hegseth's crackdown on journalists' access to the Pentagon, and Russia's continuing incursions into NATO airspace. They also discuss a trio of immigration stories: the administration's new goalposts for high-skilled H-1B visas, the ending of Temporary Protected Status for Syrians, and the chilling deportation order for Mahmoud Khalil. Finally, updates on America's rogue attacks on alleged drug boats off the coast of Venezuela, a potential new approach to nuclear negotiations with North Korea, how French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte are fighting back against conspiracy theorist Candace Owens, and potential U.K. Prime Minister Nigel Farage's incredibly undignified side hustle. Then, Ben speaks with Robert Malley, co-author of the new book Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine, about the failures of the peace process under Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, the recent move by several countries to recognize a Palestinian state, and what a path to peace could look like beyond a two-state solution.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Dr. John Gartner, former Johns Hopkins professor and co-host of the podcast ‘Shrinking Trump,' joins the Beast's Joanna Coles to deliver a chilling diagnosis: Donald Trump is showing signs of dementia layered on top of malignant narcissism. Drawing on decades of clinical expertise, Dr. Gartner explains how Trump's declining language, erratic gait, and disturbing anecdotes point to brain deterioration that makes him not just unpredictable but uniquely dangerous in office. Coles presses him on how Trump's narcissism compares to King Charles' public persona, whether his cabinet and family are retreating from his volatility, and what it means when a leader with nuclear codes also displays symptoms of mini-strokes and confabulation. From Hitler's psychology to Bill Clinton's benign narcissism, this episode explores how power amplifies paranoia, cruelty, and decay—and asks the starkest question of all: as Trump weakens physically and mentally while tightening his grip on authority, how far can Trumpism go before it breaks America?

(Note: A version of this episode originally ran in 2016.)It's no secret that CEOs get paid a ton – and a ton more than the average worker. More than a hundred times than what their average employee makes. But it wasn't always this way. So, how did this gap get so vast? And why? On today's episode … we go back to a specific moment when the way CEOs were paid got changed. It involves Bill Clinton's campaign promises, and Silicon Valley workers taking to the streets to protest an accounting rule.
