In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: Violent clashes spread across Iran as nationwide protests enter their twelfth day, with demonstrators crossing a dangerous new line by burning regime symbols—including statues of Qassem Soleimani—signaling that the unrest has moved beyond economic grievance and into a direct challenge to the regime's legitimacy. Later in the show—an officer with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement shoots and kills a woman in Minneapolis, sparking public anger and renewed scrutiny of federal immigration enforcement as authorities investigate the incident.

BULLETIN PODCAST: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN The Trump Administration has begun its shooting war, its reign of terror, against the peaceful and unarmed citizens of the United States. A woman is dead in Minneapolis, killed by ICE, reportedly a legal observer during a raid in a local neighborhood. In one statement, ICE claimed the victim was trying to run over an agent; in another it claimed an agent HAD been run over. Neither claim is true. Multiple videos show without a shadow of a doubt that this is a lie. As a car – which was not even blocking a street - moves out of the way of an ICE vehicle, a militia member exits HIS car, approaches the victim’s car from the back and the side, and shoots the driver three times through the driver's window. Reportedly in the face. The shooter is clear of the vehicle. Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis has told ICE to "get the f***" out of Minneapolis. Minnesota governor Tim Walz has taken a preliminary step towards mobilizing his national guard, issued a so-called “warning order” to the Minnesota National Guard – as he termed it, a “heads up” to its members that he may call up the Guard. A full Countdown podcast will follow at Midnight.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: New reporting sheds light on one of the biggest unanswered questions after Nicolás Maduro's ouster: why the Trump administration has chosen not to back Venezuela's opposition leader, despite expectations of a democratic handoff. Israeli defense sources warn that Iran may be plotting to assassinate Syria's president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, as quiet contacts begin to open between Israel and Damascus—raising fears of a deliberate attempt to sabotage a potential thaw.

BULLETIN: TRUMP'S ILLEGAL WAR WITH VENEZUELA Two months ago, in an interview, Trump's Chief of Staff Susie Wiles "conceded that attacking targets on Venezuela’s mainland would force Trump to get congressional approval. Quote: "If he were to authorize some activity on land, then it’s war, then [we’d need] Congress.'" She was entirely right. Yet overnight Trump invaded Venezuela and seized its leader Nicolas Maduro. To paraphrase his own chief of staff he DID authorize some activity on land, then it’s war, then [we’d need] Congress.'" AND TRUMP BROKE THE LAW AND BREACHED THE CONSTITUTION. And this morning he and his hapless Vice President JD Vance confirmed this is as much about seizing oil - as much about increasing the profits of American corporations - as any supposed "narco-terrorism." Without any Congressional consent, Trump did this - anyway - from inside his madness, from within his monomaniacal delusional fog - without any legal right to do so - without any legal right THERE and without any legal right HERE. On his own. Without congressional approval. Without the nation's approval. Without even the flimsiest of the fig leaves of democracy. Without any international consensus. Without any concern for the consequences. Without any consideration of the precedent he provides China in Taiwan and Russia in Poland and any other tyrannical bandit nation anywhere in this world.And we, thanks to Trump, we - the United States of America - are now that tyrannical bandit nation. It is important to note that on the simple, theoretical scale of who should remain as the leader of a failed rogue state, there is no defense for Nicolas Maduro. There is overwhelming evidence that he fabricated his latest quote “re-election” after first denuding the opposition and the law within his country. Again, by those tokens Trump has just put us on that identical path. And the idea that a country is suffering under a dictator who has no moral right to continue can be said even more easily of Putin. And of Xi in China. And dozens of others, many of whom Trump considers friends, about whom he makes no distinction. Maduro has no moral right to continue as president of Venezuela, and Trump has no moral right to act upon that by himself. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special New Year's Eve edition of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin Mike Baker looks back at the stories from 2025 that didn't quite make it into the President's Daily Brief — not because they weren't real, but because they didn't fit the daily intelligence picture. From a drunken raccoon with a rap sheet in Virginia, to a Christmas brawl on Nantucket that left police reports looking more like classified documents, to Florida man staying firmly on brand, and a “masked intruder” in New York who turned out to be something else entirely — these are the strange, true stories that crossed our radar this year.

Russell Moore, Mike Cosper, and Clarissa Moll gather at the end of the year to reflect on 2025's top news stories–what mattered, what didn't, and what thoughtful media engagement means for Christians. Together, they consider the influential rise of artificial intelligence, the merging of politics with the pulpit, and the timeless call of Jesus–“Do not be afraid”--that anchors Christian hearts in the truth, no matter what the news cycle brings.

Alberto Cavaglion"Nella notte straniera"Gli ebrei di Saint Martin de VésubieFusta Editorewww.fustaeditore.itTra 1939 e 1943 il susseguirsi di tragici even- ti favorì il convergere lungo l'arco alpino oc- cidentale di una cospicua quantità di ebrei in fuga dalle persecuzioni. Le leggi razziali in Italia, lo scoppio della seconda guerra mon- diale e la conseguente invasione della Fran- cia meridionale da parte degli italiani, poi la conquista di Parigi da parte dei tedeschi for- mularono una sorta di fatale legge di gravità, capace di attrarre decine e decine di famiglie: donne, anziani e bambini, che ripararono prima lungo la costa che unisce la Riviera di Ponente e la Costa Azzurra (si pensi a Wal- ter Benjamin o Arthur Koestler), poi lungo il versante francese delle Alpi, dalla valle della Vésubie su fino all'Alta Savoia. La maggior parte di loro erano “stranieri”, giunti in Italia dopo il 1933, o fuggiti da Parigi invasa dalle SS. Polacchi, russi, un- gheresi, austriaci. Tra Nizza e Saint Martin vissero un periodo di relativa tranquillità, che di poco precede la fuga attraverso i valichi al- pini al seguito di una armata in rotta. Per una parte di loro l'arrivo in Italia volle dire pri- ma l'internamento nel campo di Borgo San Dalmazzo, poi la deportazione ad Auschwitz. Per i sopravvissuti le valli cuneesi furono ter- ra d'asilo fino alla Liberazione. Una vicenda di grande intensità emotiva, ma un problema non semplice da spiegare per gli storici. Come sciogliere infatti la contraddi- zione di un paese come l'Italia, che s'era dato una legislazione razziale feroce, ma alla fero- cia rinuncia quando si trova a convivere con le strategie di sterminio dell'alleato tedesco e del regime collaborazionista di Vichy?Che cosa fa, di questo libro, qualcosa di diverso da altri su argomenti simili? Forse il fatto che non è solo documento, o cronaca, o descrizione, o rifles- sione, ma un po' tutte queste cose insieme. Andrea Devoto, La Nuova Antologia, 2152, ottobre-dicembre 1984 Le livre suit avec beaucoup de minutie un épisode fort peu connu. Une contribution très attachante qui doit être versée au dossier ouvert par Marrus et Pax- ton dans un ouvrage déja classique.

Lucio Ceva, Il Risorgimento, XXXIV, 1, febbraio 1982 Cavaglion has pieced together the story of several hundred Jews who moved to Nice in the tiny Ital- ian-held part of France after Mussolini's downfall in 1943, hoping (justifiably) that they would be bet- ter treated by the Italians than by the SS.

May our messages be a blessing to you in your desire to grow in the knowledge and presence of God.
In this sermon the speaker shares personal struggles with overwork and depression, then encourages listeners to surrender, abide in Christ, and pursue the big ideas God places on their hearts. Drawing on examples like George Mueller and John Wesley, he emphasizes faithfulness, prayer, sacrificial service, and God's provision amid trials. Key takeaways: love others, persevere through hardship, seek God's will, and bear much fruit for His kingdom. The message closes with an invitation to commit to prayer, humility, and active service in the church. ---- Dream Big for the Glory of God John 15:8 Find other Podcasts, Sermon Notes and the Bulletin here. https://www.mvcnaz.org/live Stay in touch with our Church Center App at https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter Contact us through our CONNECT form at https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect With Pastor Jevan Thomas
A special holiday crossover with The Bang-Bang Podcast! Van Jackson and Lyle Rubin are joined by the preeminent nuclear scholar Scott Sagan to discuss A House of Dynamite, the 2025 political thriller that imagines nuclear catastrophe not as spectacle or obvious madness, but as an orderly sequence of decisions made under crushing time pressure. Structured as interlocking vignettes rather than a single command-room drama, the film moves between the White House, STRATCOM, missile defense sites, continuity bunkers, and civilian spaces, sketching a system that largely works as designed and still produces annihilation.The film's opening establishes its governing logic. Inclination is flattening. Timelines shrink. Judgment collapses into procedure. “Nineteen minutes to impact.” “Sixteen minutes.” “Confirm impact.” Across locations, professionals do their jobs calmly while the meaning drains out of their actions. A senior officer tells a junior colleague to keep the cafeteria line moving. A staffer compiles names and Social Security numbers for the dead. Phones come out. Final calls are made. The end of the world arrives not with hysteria, but with etiquette.Much of the tension turns on probability. Missile defense is described as “hitting a bullet with a bullet.” Sixty-one percent becomes the moral threshold, a coin toss bought with billions of dollars. Baseball chatter at STRATCOM blends into DEFCON alerts. A Civil War reenactment at Gettysburg unfolds alongside real-time catastrophe, collapsing past and present forms of American mass death into a single frame.Scott is critical of the film's portrayal of nuclear command and control. He argues that its depiction of retaliatory decision-making is wrong, that no president would order nuclear strikes against loosely defined adversaries without firm attribution or confirmation, and that the film risks backfiring by encouraging faith in ever more elaborate missile defenses rather than disarmament. Lyle pushes back, questioning whether this confidence in institutional sanity is warranted, especially given the political moment. Either way, the film lands a disturbing insight. The danger is not wild irrationality, but systems that normalize impossible choices. Nuclear war here would not look like collapse. It would look like competence.Further ReadingScott's Wiki page“Just and Unjust Nuclear Deterrence” by ScottThe Limits of Safety: Organizations, Accidents, and Nuclear Weapons by Scott“Thinking and Moral Considerations” by Hannah ArendtReview of A House of Dynamite in Bulletin of Atomic Scientists by Scott and Shreya Lad“Peacecraft and the Nuclear Policy Dilemma” by Van“Fresh Hell: Unjust Nuclear Deterrence and Nuclear Testing” by Van

In this special edition of the PDB Afternoon Bulletin--We take a step back from the daily headlines to explore one of the strangest political fault lines in modern China: Xi Jinping's war on the game of golf. We explain how golf became associated with corruption, elite privilege, and unwanted Western influence inside the Chinese Communist Party—and why Party officials learned to treat it as politically radioactive. We trace the story from Mao Zedong's condemnation of the sport, through China's underground golf boom, to Xi's sweeping anti-corruption campaign that turned golf clubs into targets.

Send us a textThis episode wrecked me in the very best way.On September 11th, 2001, while most of the world was glued to their TVs watching unimaginable horror unfold, Diane Davis was teaching Grade 3 French immersion in Gander, Newfoundland, an airport town of about 10,000 people that would suddenly become home to nearly 7,000 stranded airline passengers.What happened next is the part of the 9/11 story you probably don't know.Diane walks me through those surreal days when 38 planes were diverted to Gander and an entire community quietly, efficiently, and compassionately mobilized. Teachers turned schools into shelters. Bus drivers walked off strike to shuttle passengers. Churches, camps, and tiny outport towns filled trucks with food, bedding, and toothbrushes. Bulletin boards replaced the internet. Tim Hortons boxes became filing systems. No one waited to be told what to do. People just did what they could.Diane's story became part of Come From Away, the Broadway musical inspired by Gander's response to 9/11. Yes, there is literally a character based on her. But what struck me most wasn't the red carpets or the Tony Awards. It was her belief that none of this was extraordinary. It was simply people showing up with whatever skills they had.We also talk about the other side of being a lifelong helper, learning how to receive. Diane shares candidly about her current cancer treatment, the discomfort of accepting support, and how community once again is carrying her through. This conversation is about kindness, grit, humility, and the quiet magic that happens when strangers choose to care for each other.You might cry. I definitely did. And you'll walk away remembering what humans are capable of when we're at our best.What's Inside:What really happened in Gander when thousands of planes were diverted on 9/11How ordinary people self-organized to care for thousands of strangersThe real-life story behind Come From AwayWhy learning to receive help can be just as powerful as giving itSo here's what I want you thinking about after this episode. What does being rich actually mean to you? Is it having more than enough for yourself or being so resourced that you can show up for others without hesitation? Diane's story is a masterclass in emotional wealth, generosity, and community. And look, that kind of life is built one choice at a time.I want to hear from you. What kind of world do you want to help create, and what role do you want to play in it? DM me on Instagram and let's talk about it.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 41: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN The president of the United States is celebrating the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife. It is at first impossible to believe that what follows isn’t satire. Then it becomes heart-breaking that it isn’t satire. Then it becomes infuriating. Finally it becomes more evidence that every minute this man is permitted to REMAIN president – the rest of us – the rest of us in the WORLD – are in mortal danger. Trump really believes that Rob Reiner “passed away… due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with… Trump Derangement Syndrome.” Trump’s ability to make everything about HIM – his need to be, as the old dark joke goes, the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral – is not some kind of act. You will recall his reaction to 9/11 – that it made HIM the owner of the SECOND tallest building in downtown Manhattan, not just the third. It crested when he publicly speculated that a baseball player broke his ankle because he sold his apartment in a Trump building. It is called Shallow Affect and it means in essence that you do not KNOW how actual normal humans interact nor what causes the events in THEIR lives. You cannot CONCEIVE of their lives. You look at a picture of the world and you see only you. You look in a mirror and you correctly see YOU but you are firmly convinced that when OTHERS look in THEIR mirrors… they ALSO see only you. Human beings do not believe these things. Trump does. It means he can believe - and do - anything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
