America aims to avoid nuclear war by relying on the principle of 'mutually assured destruction,' right? Wrong. Or at least... not officially.As today's guest — Jeffrey Lewis, founder of Arms Control Wonk and professor at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies — explains, in its official 'OPLANs' (military operation plans), the US is committed to 'dominating' in a nuclear war with Russia. How would they do that? "That is redacted."Rebroadcast: this episode was originally released in December 2022.Links to learn more, highlights, and full transcript.We invited Jeffrey to come on the show to lay out what we and our listeners are most likely to be misunderstanding about nuclear weapons, the nuclear posture of major powers, and his field as a whole, and he did not disappoint.As Jeffrey tells it, 'mutually assured destruction' was a slur used to criticise those who wanted to limit the 1960s arms buildup, and was never accepted as a matter of policy in any US administration. But isn't it still the de facto reality? Yes and no.Jeffrey is a specialist on the nuts and bolts of bureaucratic and military decision-making in real-life situations. He suspects that at the start of their term presidents get a briefing about the US' plan to prevail in a nuclear war and conclude that "it's freaking madness." They say to themselves that whatever these silly plans may say, they know a nuclear war cannot be won, so they just won't use the weapons.But Jeffrey thinks that's a big mistake. Yes, in a calm moment presidents can resist pressure from advisors and generals. But that idea of ‘winning' a nuclear war is in all the plans. Staff have been hired because they believe in those plans. It's what the generals and admirals have all prepared for.What matters is the 'not calm moment': the 3AM phone call to tell the president that ICBMs might hit the US in eight minutes — the same week Russia invades a neighbour or China invades Taiwan. Is it a false alarm? Should they retaliate before their land-based missile silos are hit? There's only minutes to decide.Jeffrey points out that in emergencies, presidents have repeatedly found themselves railroaded into actions they didn't want to take because of how information and options were processed and presented to them. In the heat of the moment, it's natural to reach for the plan you've prepared — however mad it might sound.In this spicy conversation, Jeffrey fields the most burning questions from Rob and the audience, in the process explaining:Why inter-service rivalry is one of the biggest constraints on US nuclear policyTwo times the US sabotaged nuclear nonproliferation among great powersHow his field uses jargon to exclude outsidersHow the US could prevent the revival of mass nuclear testing by the great powersWhy nuclear deterrence relies on the possibility that something might go wrongWhether 'salami tactics' render nuclear weapons ineffectiveThe time the Navy and Air Force switched views on how to wage a nuclear war, just when it would allow *them* to have the most missilesThe problems that arise when you won't talk to people you think are evilWhy missile defences are politically popular despite being strategically foolishHow open source intelligence can prevent arms racesAnd much more.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Rob's intro (00:01:05)The interview begins (00:03:31)Misconceptions in the effective altruism community (00:06:24)Nuclear deterrence (00:18:18)Dishonest rituals (00:28:59)Downsides of generalist research (00:32:55)“Mutual assured destruction” (00:39:00)Budgetary considerations for competing parts of the US military (00:52:35)Where the effective altruism community can potentially add the most value (01:02:57)Gatekeeping (01:12:46)Strengths of the nuclear security community (01:16:57)Disarmament (01:27:40)Nuclear winter (01:39:36)Attacks against US allies (01:42:28)Most likely weapons to get used (01:45:53)The role of moral arguments (01:47:22)Salami tactics (01:52:43)Jeffrey's disagreements with Thomas Schelling (01:57:42)Why did it take so long to get nuclear arms agreements?

If you're wondering what the economy will do in 2025, you don't want to miss this program.Few major league hitters can bat .300 in a given season. Imagine hitting .700! That's what Bob Doll does every year: forecasting economic trends. He joins us today with his ten predictions for 2025.Bob Doll is the CEO and CIO of Crossmark Global Investments. He regularly contributes to Faith and Finance and other media outlets like Bloomberg TV, Fox Business, and CNBC. Key Economic Predictions: Fewer Tailwinds, More Tail RisksThe theme of Doll's predictions signals a shift:Fewer Tailwinds: Slower earnings growth and high valuation levels create less upward momentum.More Tail Risks: A new political administration introduces uncertainty around regulation, tax policies, and trade.Doll shares insights on everything from inflation to sector performance. Let's dive into his top predictions for the year ahead.1. Slower Economic Growth and Rising UnemploymentDoll predicts economic growth will slow as unemployment rises past 4.5%. While this signals a cooling job market, he emphasizes that a 4.5% unemployment rate is historically low and not cause for alarm.2. Sticky Inflation and Limited Rate CutsInflation is expected to remain stubbornly above the Federal Reserve's 2% target. This will likely limit the Fed's ability to reduce interest rates, continuing the challenges seen in 2024.3. Treasury Yields and Credit SpreadsTreasury yields are forecasted to trade between 3.75% and 4.75%, with credit spreads widening slightly as the economy slows. While this doesn't point to a recession, it reflects tighter financial conditions.4. Slower Earnings GrowthDoll anticipates earnings growth will fall short of the optimistic 14% consensus, noting that such high growth is rare without a post-recession recovery.5. Increased VolatilityAfter a period of low volatility, Doll predicts the VIX (Volatility Index) will approach 20, reflecting greater market uncertainty. He advises investors to remain disciplined and avoid emotional reactions to market swings.6. A 10% Market CorrectionDoll foresees a 10% correction in 2025, emphasizing that such corrections are normal and should be viewed as buying opportunities for long-term investors.7. Equal-Weighted Portfolios Outperform Cap-Weighted PortfoliosDoll expects equal-weighted portfolios to outperform cap-weighted ones as the dominance of mega-cap stocks like the “Magnificent Seven” wanes.8. Value Outperforms GrowthAfter years of underperformance, value stocks are projected to outshine growth stocks, driven by cheaper valuations.9. Top Performing SectorsDoll predicts financials, energy, and utilities will outperform sectors like healthcare, technology, and industrials. While technology remains essential, high valuations could temper its returns.10. Tax Cuts and Reduced RegulationWith the Trump tax cuts set to expire in late 2025, Doll anticipates extensions alongside reduced regulations. However, divisive policies like tariffs and deportation may have limited economic impact.11. Budgetary ChallengesEfforts to address government spending will face significant hurdles, with key programs like Social Security, Medicare, and defense spending off the table. Progress will likely fall short of ambitious deficit reduction targets.Preparing for 2025Doll acknowledges that predicting the future is inherently uncertain, but his insights provide valuable context for navigating the year ahead. He advises investors to stay diversified, remain disciplined, and prepare for volatility.As we embrace 2025, let's remember that while economic trends may fluctuate, wise stewardship and long-term planning remain steadfast principles for financial success.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:When our children were young, my husband and I decided to start tithing despite our tight budget. I was skeptical about how we could afford it, but we began tithing in faith. Surprisingly, our budget never changed—the 10% we tithed didn't impact our weekly spending. It was almost miraculous how the Lord provided for us as we honored him with our finances. To this day, I'm not sure how it worked out, but God was so faithful when we stepped out in obedience.We've saved up cash at home for emergencies but have no significant expenses since we live on Social Security. How much of that cash should I keep at home? And if I don't keep it all at home, what's the best way to keep it somewhat liquid and earn some interest rather than just storing it in a coffee can?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationCrossmark Global InvestmentsBankrateChristian Community Credit Union (CCCU)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Adrian Hanauer first became formally involved in the Seattle Sounders when he became the managing partner of the USL team in 2002. One of the first big hires he made was appointing Brian Schmetzer to be the head coach. While steering the ship on the business side, he also served as the team's general manager, a role he maintained for the first five years of the Sounders' MLS existence. I first met Hanauer in 2010, shortly after I started writing for Sounder at Heart. At the time, I was struck by how eager he was to share his thoughts on both the business and sporting aspects of the team. He stepped down as the GM following the 2014 season and has been the majority owner since 2015. As the Sounders and his role within the team have evolved, I've also had fewer interactions with him. Behind the scenes, though, he remains as active as ever. Hanauer is a near daily fixture at the team's new Longacres training facility, where his office overlooks the pitch. That's where Hanauer and I met about 10 days ago to broadly discuss the state of the franchise. My intention was to get a sense of where he sees the Sounders within the broader MLS landscape; what kind of preparations are in order for the 2025 Club World Cup; how he perceives the Sounders' handling of various off-field issues; and his vision for Longacres that goes beyond the training facility.

It was just over a month ago when the federal government was staring at the possibility of a shutdown. Well, little seemingly has changed in the ensuing four weeks, other than that the House of Representatives has a new speaker in Mike Johnson from Louisiana, and the full chamber has settled on its budget numbers for fiscal 2024…which started back on October 1.   While most national parks likely will close if there is a government shutdown on November 17, what is more pressing for the National Park Service is what budget numbers Congress will settle on for the current fiscal year and whether President Biden will go along with them.   Our guests today are John Garder, the senior director for budget & appropriations at the National Parks Conservation Association, and Mike Murray, a long-time NPS employee and superintendent who now serves as chair of the Coalition to Protect America's National Parks. They're here to discuss the current situation facing the Park Service and Park System.

In this post-G2E episode, Nick & Don present budgetary guidance for 2024.

President Biden's meeting today with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy will address whether spending constraints are attached to a bill that will raise the U.S. debt ceiling. The best way to accomplish real budgetary discipline, however, would be to secure the resignation from the presidency of a man who has over five decades in government proven to be an inveterate binge-spender. Fortunately, the probability of that outcome continues to grow, albeit not because of the harm done by the trillions of dollars he's added to the liability side of the federal balance sheet. Rather, as evidence continues to accumulate that Joe and his son Hunter betrayed our country by selling not only access, but state secrets, and congressional inquiries ramp up that could lead to the President's impeachment, next week's State of the Union address seems likely to be his last. Thank God. This is Frank Gaffney.

This one actually has a part? Like it's a successor to something. Yeah.

What's often more frightening than the bizarre is the mundane. Most grand scale problems we find ourselves encountering are the result of minor stupid decisions compounded upon each other ad nauseum. It's just the factors of time and information distribution that change these problems from mundane to eldritch in our perception. But I'm not saying anything new here, am I?
