Election Day is here for most of the United States. Voting options are open across the country. Millions have already voted and millions more will vote before November 5th, the final day to vote. US Presidential candidates always fight over federal policymaking within and beyond the borders of the US state, but the outcome of the 2024 presidential election has the potential to determine outsized changes in US and global direction for at least the next generation. This week, as we finish our examination of Ta Nehisi Coates' The Message, we begin a three week consideration of what is at stake in the current US election. Why should we care and also get and remain involved and engaged in a political contest that will determine the role the US state plays in the world? Who are most and least influential actors inside the borders of the most influential empire in global history? What is the role of “the vote” in helping people living in the US to alter or disrupt plans of powerful state and non-state actors with plans for everything from addressing or ignoring climate change and nuclear brinkmanship to propping up expansionist settler colonial regimes and trying to minimize shifts in multipolar geopolitics? Third party rhetoric aside, either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States: Depending on which one prevails, are we closer to the edge in human history? And what can we do about it before and after November 5?JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
It's simple: A booming economy, a foreign policy grounded in realism, a secure border, and popular working-class policies—all contrasted by a Democratic opposition mired in chaos, antisemitism, and no credible alternative. Victor Davis Hanson discusses this on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “Every time people say we're headed for a recession or his trade war is gonna tank the economy, data comes out. … Inflation is down. Energy prices are way down. Economic growth is up. Joblessness is down. “ Most of the issues that he's trying to undo of the progressive project, the public supports him. And his Democratic opposition—four months into his tenure—has still completely lost its mind and not only does not offer an alternative agenda, but personally, emotionally, psychologically puts people off.” (0:00) Current Polls (2:18) Economic Indicators and Trump's Policies (2:51) Trump's Foreign Policy Approach (4:47) Public Perception and Media Response (6:09) Democratic Opposition and Conclusion (8:03) Closing Remarks

Tara and Lee dive into the disturbing story of a Hamas-linked terrorist who injured 16 Americans and nearly carried out a mass shooting—only stopped by a failed gun purchase. They expose how visa overstays, judicial reversals, and policy inaction across multiple administrations allowed this to happen. From the dangers of 2 million known "gotaways" to the Biden administration's alleged open border strategy, they take aim at both Democratic and Republican leadership. Featuring stark commentary on media spin, judicial activism, and national security, this episode delivers an unflinching look at the consequences of ignored immigration enforcement.
Between the 1860s and the early 1920s, more than two million Jews moved from Eastern Europe to the United States while smaller groups moved to other destinations, such as Western Europe, Palestine, and South Africa. During and after the First World War hundreds of thousands of Jews were permanently displaced across Eastern Europe. Migration restrictions that were imposed after 1914, especially in the United States, prevented most from reaching safe havens, and an unknown but substantial number of Jews perished during the Holocaust-as they had been displaced in Eastern Europe years before they were deported to ghettos and killing sites. Even after the Holocaust, tens of thousands of Jewish survivors were stranded in permanent transit for many years.Between Borders: The Great Jewish Migration from Eastern Europe tells and contextualizes the stories of these Jewish migrants and refugees before and after the First World War. It explains how immigration laws in countries such as the United States influenced migration routes around the world. Using memoirs, letters, and accounts by investigative journalists and Jewish aid workers, Tobias Brinkmann sheds light on the experiences of individual migrants, some of whom laid the foundation for migration and refugee studies as a field of scholarship, even coining terms such as "displaced person," and contributing to its legal definition at the 1951 United Nations Refugee Convention. The stories of these migrants and refugees were used to propose a new future for the United States, reimagining it as a pluralistic society-one comprised of immigrants.

Our conversation focuses on America's borders and the efforts of the US Border Patrol in safeguarding the American people from terrorists and their weapons, drug smugglers, and the illegal entry of undocumented aliens. We also focus on sanctuary cities and states and the efforts of USBP and ICE to arrest and deport illegal alien criminals. The conversation also addresses the threats emanating from dangerous cartel groups smuggling illicit drugs and terrorists. We also delve into reports of the recent increase of interdiction of illicit drugs (including fentanyl), drug proceeds and weapons — as patrol agents are re-directed to focus on their primary responsibility, and instead of dealing with the mass invasion chaos of illegal aliens in the Biden-Harris era, to confronting the evil schemes of the cartels. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://summitleadersusa.com/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @USBPChief @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Send us a textFairfax criminal lawyer Jonathan Katz knows the importance of reducing not only conviction and sentencing risks in Virginia criminal court, but also to minimize adverse collateral consequences from court outcomes. Jon Katz has interviewed some immigration lawyers on our Beat the Prosecution podcast to address immigration risks from criminal case outcomes. This episode is the first one to have a lawyer tell about risks about traveling outside the United States with a criminal conviction or the equivalent, with Canada being the topic of this episode. Enter Canadian crimmigration attorney Marisa Feil, who tells the harsh realities of being barred from Canada for life for a Virginia DUI conviction, driving under the influence conviction anywhere, even a reckless driving conviction (which does not even need to be wet reckless) and many othe convictions. The bar can be overcome, but why get the bar in the first place if your Fairfax criminal lawyer / Virginia DUI attorney can avoid it? If you as a criminal defendant know or expect you will have a need to travel to Canada, talk with your criminal defense lawyer about how informing the prosecutor and/or judge about your risks for traveling to Canada from your case might be used to your advantage in negotiating for the most favorable possible outcome in your case (ideally not inviolving a conviction) and most favorable possible sentence if you are convicted. Before you make your travel arrangements, you may wish to obtain your FBI criminal record, which is the same database the Canadian immigration authorities use when you arrive at their border or at their airports. This episode is also available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhCcmAnQOBg , at Apple podcasts at https://podcast.beattheprosecution.com/2293867/episodes/17220159 , and Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/winning-by-erasing-borders-marissa-feil-on-entering/id1721413675?i=1000709713616____Fairfax criminal lawyer Jon Katz believes in defending without borders of the physical, mental or thought process kind.

The World Press Freedom Index, which is issued by Reporters without Borders, measures the health of press freedom around the world. They do so along a number of axes, including the economic health of independent media, legal protections for the press and the physical security of journalists. In 2025, the global score on the index was the lowest it's ever been.On this episode, Dan Richards talks with three journalists and media thinkers who work in a part of the world where press freedom is, at times, a matter of life and death. Chernoh Bah is a Sierra Leonean journalist, historian and postdoctoral research fellow at the Watson Institute. Sadibou Marong is a journalist and Sub-Saharan Africa bureau chief for Reporters Without Borders, based in Sénégal. Zubaida Ismail is a freelance journalist and Ghana's correspondent for Reporters Without Borders.They discuss the state of press freedom in countries across Africa, what the struggle for independent journalism in countries in Africa can teach the rest of the world, and the broader relationship between independent media and democratic health. These guests, along with many others, gathered at the Watson Institute this Spring as part of the Media and Democracy Conference hosted by Watson's Africa Initiative. You can watch more conversations and presentations from the conference here. Transcript coming soon to our website.
Anna from Florida State University (FSU) completed her final Social Work placement at Doctors of the World. She was here for four months, and I met with her regularly as her long-term supervisor. We used this episode as an end-of-placement reflection session. Anna shared what she learned about the organisation, the work, and herself. She intends to complete her Master's in Social Work upon returning to the US and feels her experience in the UK has potentially equipped her for an international career. She was a delight to supervise; insightful, reflective and respectful of those she encountered in her work with DoTW. I wish her every success in the future and have no doubt she will be an asset to the profession.

Immigration is a human story shaped by trauma, resilience and the fight to be seen beyond stereotypes.Michael Desrosiers is joined by Kayra Martinez, the founder of Love Without Borders for Refugees in Need, for a conversation that moves beyond headlines to the lived experiences of those forced to leave everything behind. What do we really know about the people crossing borders in search of safety? And how much of that understanding is shaped by fear rather than fact?Kayra shares what she's seen firsthand in refugee camps. Families split apart, children struggling without access to school or medical care, and the quiet power of a paintbrush in helping them begin to heal. She explains how art has become a lifeline for many of the refugees she works with, offering not just expression but income, dignity and a sense of purpose.This episode challenges the assumptions we make about who refugees are and why they leave. Michael and Kayra discuss the policies, the media narratives, and the human cost behind political rhetoric. They also talk about what it means to make a difference, even on a small scale.If you've ever paused to consider what life looks like after displacement, or whether the stories we hear reflect the whole truth, Michael and Kayra's conversation offers a deeper look that will challenge assumptions and invite greater empathy.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Introduction01:05 Framing the Immigration Debate03:02 Kayra Martinez and Her Work with Refugees06:07 Migrants vs. Refugees: Why Language Matters07:48 Breaking Stereotypes and Misconceptions12:01 Refugee Stories and the Human Cost21:53 The Psychological Toll on Children28:48 How Art Supports Healing and Survival30:41 How to Help: Action Steps for Listeners34:51 Love Without Borders: What's NextLinksConnect with Kayra Martinez:https://lovewithoutborders4refugees.comcuckoo4politics.comhttps://www.instagram.com/cuckoo_4_politics/https://www.facebook.com/Cuckoo-4-Politics-104093938102793https://www.tiktok.com/@usercuckoo4politicshttps://bsky.app/profile/cuckoo4politics.bsky.socialPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

In this uplifting episode, Laura and Chay chat with Leanne, a passionate allotment gardener who has taken on three plots since 2021. Leanne shares the highs and lows of her gardening journey, the lessons she's learned, and how growing her own produce has become a vital part of her daily life.The conversation also highlights Leanne's recent leap into the spotlight with her garden design, "Following in My Footsteps," which she showcased at the BBC Gardeners' World Beautiful Borders exhibit. She discusses the inspiration behind the design and what it was like to bring her vision to life on a national stage.Balancing her gardening passion with a full-time teaching job, motherhood, and caring for her dog Oscar (who makes a charming cameo on the show!), Leanne's story is one of courage, creativity, and growth.

A group of curious and ingenious humans build a spyglass to peer into the realm of the gods, to find out why the gods are not governing the world as they were expected to. Genre: Mythology Excerpt: Not in the beginning, but early in the history of the world, many mortals suspected that the ones who called themselves gods were shirking their duty of properly governing the world. Some responded by entreating the gods. Others by railing against them. But a few decided to try answering the question of what it was that the gods spent their time doing if they were not doing what was expected. What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode? Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. Resourceful mortals versus neglectful, cruel, and petty gods. This theme doesn't seem to get old for me. Two previous episodes that explore that theme and inspired this episode are “Godsfear” and “A Sword Named Blasphemy.” MERCH!Interested in merch, like mugs and notebooks, featuring my artwork?

In this explosive episode, the host delivers a searing indictment of government inaction—from Governor Henry McMaster's failure to replicate Florida's crackdown on illegal immigration to the hidden dangers of everyday chemicals poisoning American families. Using the tragic murder of a South Carolina woman by illegal immigrant gang members as a flashpoint, the host calls out political cowardice and exposes how Ron DeSantis' partnership with federal agencies is successfully driving criminal migrants out of Florida. The conversation then shifts to a sweeping public health crisis, connecting fluoride, microplastics, and toxic food additives to rising neurological disorders like ADHD. Drawing parallels to Big Tobacco's cover-up, this broadcast warns of an inevitable wave of lawsuits and societal awakening. Raw, urgent, and unfiltered—this is a call to action for a nation on the edge.
In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First, Mexico is suffering another blood-soaked election season.

In the wake of the most intense India-Pakistan escalation in two decades, experts are still trying to make sense of the role that the information war played in the physical one. In this episode, Tech Policy Press Associate Editor Ramsha Jahangir speaks to two experts from India and Pakistan who tirelessly navigated the deluge of rumor and disinformation during the crisis, and who came away with thoughts about the role of social media platforms and the incentives they create, particularly in times of conflict:Pratik Sinha, co-founder and editor at Alt News—one of India's major fact-checking websites, and Asad Baig, founder of Media Matters for Democracy—a non-profit focused on media literacy and development in Pakistan.Sinha and Baig reflect on how the India-Pakistan conflict played out across digital platforms—and how it revealed a deeper, more dangerous dysfunction in the information ecosystem.
Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper have played their migration cards, but will they be enough to counter Farage's populist policies? Will they work in practical terms?

Is there an instinct driving the brutality toward migrants, the focus on revenge and the attacks on valued programs? Is our anxiety one of the goals?
John explores the wild forests and farmland of his local Scottish borders area. It's a sparsely populated region where black panthers and lynx are quietly discussed by some of the locals. John takes us through various lynx encounters, including two of his own, and describes his three experiences with large black cats – one seen nearby from a slow moving train, and one unnervingly close at night. John starts the episode by explaining how his military background helps his observation and tracking skills. He also discusses lynx reintroduction proposals which have been considered for his part of Britain. John is a musician and with his wife & friends created his own outro track for this edition… Eyes Burning Bright. Words of the week: orienting response 9 May 2025
On May 8, 1945, the second world war came to end in Europe. 80 years on, we reflect on how Catalonia was affected by the conflict and highlight the remarkable story of Neus Català, an anti-fascist resistance fighter and holocaust survivor from Tarragona. Reporters Lea Beliaeva Bander and Cillian Shields join host Beth Cohen to discuss the effects of WWII in Catalonia and discover the story of a Catalan woman who dedicated her life to fighting fascism. We meet Ricard Ribera Llorens, president of the Fundació Neus Català, who recounts Neus Català's journey from rural Catalonia to the concentration camps of Ravensbrück and Holleischen, to her later years dedicated to the historical memory of Nazi atrocities. Neus played a vital role in the anti-fascist struggle in the French resistance as a Republican exile, carrying messages, participating in the escape networks, providing food to guerrillas and giving the Nazi soldiers false information. Plus Dr. Alejandro Acosta, contemporary historian at the Universidad Carlos III in Madrid, analyzes the ongoing presence of fascist politics in contemporary society and the conditions which favor its' expansion. This week, our Catalan phrase is a quote from Neus Català herself: “L'única mort que em preocupa és la mort de la memòria” - “The only death which worries me is the death of memory.”

He started with the Mirror To Damascus in 1967 and with more than half a century and 18 travel books later published his journey along the Amur River just a few years ago. He's a contemporary of Theroux, Chatwin, early Dalrymple and inspiration for the newer generation of his genre, the likes of Rory Stewart, Levison Wood and many, many more. Colin has been a dream guest of mine for many years.This interview travelled a line across the map of his career. Colin reflects on his many experiences in Russia and China, the impact of historical events like the Cultural Revolution, the collapse of the Soviet Union - and the broader evolution of travel writing throughout the years. He gets into the effects of globalisation on cultural identities and how it's effected his experience over the decades. Colin observes the complexities of nationalism and patriotism, and as well discusses the role religion in his life, the nature of belief, and the rationality behind it all. Colin then comments on mortality and his legacy which leads to a discussion on how travel can serve as a coping mechanism for grief. Plus, together we also touch on the choices and more difficult trade offs surrounding parenthood and career, his aspirations for future literary projects, and the influence of serendipity behind it all.

Peregrine falcons have been in residence at the University of Glasgow's Gilbert Scott Tower for a number of years now, with a new clutch of chicks being born again this year. Rachel met with Clarke Elsby from the university and John Simpson, from the Scottish Ornithologists Club, to get a glimpse of these magnificent birds of prey. Solsgirth Home Farm near Dollar is home to a large variety of animals, from sheep, to pigs, to emu. Owned and run by veterinarian Jan Dixon, the farm is passionate about reconnecting people to the realities of farm life. Mark went along to find out more about the ethos behind the farm. Trees are a strong source of inspiration for many creative arts, and one such artist is harpist and singer Mary McMaster, who has been working on a new composition called For the Love of Trees. Helen Needham met with Mary in the Royal Botanic Gardens to find out how woodlands have shaped her work. The Moffat Spitfire has been a local landmark for several years now. The plane has long been located in the garden of retired local GP Dr Hamish MacLeod, and has raised money for several military charities.

Mark met with Hamish at his home in Moffat to hear more about Dowding, and the plane itself. Ospreys are back across Scotland, and people across the world are following along on live cameras hosted at sites such as RSPB Loch Garten. Mark and Rachel hear from the Visitor Experience Manager Clark Evans about what an exciting – and sometimes drama-filled - time of year it is on the reserve. The glasshouse and walled garden in the centre of Banff was once home to fruit trees and grapes, grown for the imposing Duff House. Now, it has been transformed into The Vinery - a local community employment hub, teaching classes on all manner of topics, including gardening. Mark met with the gardener, Michelle Walker, to hear more about the opportunities The Vinery is provides to the local community.
