On a daily basis, Americans and the world are being overwhelmed by the Trump administration's decisions that are deeply consequential politically, economically, socially and constitutionally. Since Trump's first term, the press has been under fire often being called the "Fake News". In this second term, the attacks are growing stronger. On March 15, the U.S. President signed an executive order to shut down the Voice of America, a government funded network that has provided news and information to the world for more than 80 years. VOA is one of the most trusted news sources to 350 million people globally, often in places where the idea of free press is non-existent...North Korea, Myanmar, Belarus, Venezuela to name a few. In this episode of Shoes Off Inside 1-on-1, May talks with her old journalist colleague and friend Steve Herman, VOA's Chief National Correspondent, about the significance of the network's mission and what the devestating impact the shutdown of VOA will have on the world. Please subscribe, rate and review us!And follow us on IG @shoesoffinsidemkt

Voice of America (VOA),, the U.S. government-funded international broadcaster, is facing an unprecedented crisis. Journalists have been cut off from their newsrooms—emails shut down, phones disconnected, and no way to reach editors—leaving many in a state of uncertainty. Steve Herman, Chief National Correspondent for VOA, finds himself among more than 1,300 colleagues placed on excused absence. While Herman was singled out under an executive order deeming him potentially disloyal to the president's foreign policy, his colleagues' suspensions were not linked to any alleged wrongdoing. As the shutdown stretches on, audiences once served by VOA's trusted reporting are turning elsewhere, raising questions about the future of one of America's most enduring journalistic institutions.

While traditionally there is a focus on the first 100 days of a US Presidency, Donald Trump has already made a substantial impact on global affairs in half that time. John King, CNN anchor and Chief National Correspondent, gives his analysis.

The last week in the US presidential election campaign, opinion polls suggest it's neck-and-neck. So, what's the focus for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in these final days? And how big a say could US support for Israel's war on Gaza have on the result?

Unless one candidate wins swing states decisively, a quick settlement is unlikely in America's cliffhanger election. Synopsis: The Straits Times' global contributor Nirmal Ghosh shines a light on Asian perspectives of global and Asian issues with expert guests. The United States' presidential election, which polls show is currently in a statistical tie, is unlikely to be settled quickly unless one candidate decisively wins enough swing states - which remains a possibility.  Short of that however, both parties have armies of lawyers ready to file challenges to the result - with resolution potentially taking a long time, and concerns over instability in the interim.  While a Kamala Harris presidency would bring a degree of continuity to foreign policy - and possibly some push back against Israel's conduct - a Donald Trump presidency would have echoes of his first term, in which he bristled against the traditional post World War II international order, bringing up issues even with American allies such as NATO. A second term would bring more transactionalism and disruption even as some countries would like to see him back in power. He has also claimed that he will end the Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours.  From the eye of the gathering storm in an increasingly severely polarised America, senior journalist, author and veteran foreign correspondent Steven Herman, Chief National Correspondent of Voice of America, shares his views with Asian Insider host Nirmal Ghosh.  Highlights (click/tap above):  2:17 The implications from the elections on foreign policies 5:05 Global perceptions of America and how some are eager to see Donald Trump return 6:33 Potential for political instability and the possibility of a long unresolved election 11:16 The public sentiment and political polarization of the elections 15:03 How Trump and Harris are looking at reaching out to younger audience through podcasts Host: Nirmal Ghosh (nirmal@sph.com.sg) Produced and edited by: Fa'izah Sani Executive producer: Ernest Luis Follow Asian Insider on Fridays here: Channel: https://str.sg/JWa7 Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/JWa8 Spotify: https://str.sg/JWaX Website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg Follow Nirmal Ghosh on X: https://str.sg/JD7r Read Nirmal Ghosh's articles: https://str.sg/JbxG Register for Asian Insider newsletter: https://str.sg/stnewsletters --- Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7   ST Podcast website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts   ST Podcasts YouTube: https://str.sg/4Vwsa  --- Get The Straits Times' app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX   --- #STAsianInsiderSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are few more authoritative American journalists than the longtime NPR and PBS host Ray Suarez. So it was a real treat to sit down with Ray earlier this month in Washington DC to talk broadly about his and his family's experience as American immigrants from Puerto Rico. Suarez is part of that golden generation of late twentieth century American journalists who exemplified both trust and authority in their coverage of the news. And listening to him today is a reminder of what America has lost because of its failure to replace guys like Suarez with a young generation of equally trusted and authoritative journalists. Ray Suarez is the host of the public radio program and podcast "On Shifting Ground," produced by Commonwealth Club-World Affairs and KQED-FM. His next book, on the modern era of American immigration, We Are Home: Becoming American in the 21st Century, is published by Little, Brown. He has been a visiting professor of Political Science at NYU Shanghai, and the John McCloy Visiting Professor of American Studies at Amherst College. He is a graduate of New York University and the University of Chicago. Earlier in his career, Suarez was the host of the daily news program "Inside Story" from Al Jazeera America, Chief National Correspondent for The PBS NewsHour, and the host of "Talk of the Nation" from NPR. His recent podcast productions include two seasons of "Going for Broke," produced with the Economic Hardship Reporting Project, and "The Things I Thought About When My Body Was Trying to Kill Me," from Evergreen Podcasts, about cancer and recovery. Suarez' journalism has been recognized with two DuPont-Columbia Awards, the Ruben Salazar Award from UNIDOS-US, and UCLA's Public Policy Leadership Award for his reporting on urban America, among others.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

In this episode of "Democracy Nerd", host Jefferson Smith interviews Steven L. Herman--the Chief National Correspondent for Voice of America and the author of "Behind the White House Curtain: A Senior Journalist's Story of Covering the President--and Why It Matters"--about the importance of unbiased information to ensure a healthy and peaceful democracy. Jefferson and Steven discuss the history and importance of Voice of America, a government-funded international broadcast platform, whose mission is to provide news and accurate information about the United States to global audiences, with an overall goal to promote understanding and goodwill between the U.S. and other countries. To ensure Voice of America accomplishes its mission, a firewall is created to ensure political interference by presidential administrations on VOA's independent content doesn't occur. However, during the Trump presidency, attempts were made to politicize VOA's content. Steven emphasizes the importance of VOA to maintain independence from political influence and take the necessary steps to ensure its reporting remains objective and free from partisan bias. Steven also discusses the difficulties faced by journalists who rely on social media to collect facts in an era of widespread disinformation and misinformation. Fact-checking and verifying info is an essential duty performed by journalists that fall by the wayside in a rush for breaking news or to spin events in support of a political agenda. Steven shared his experiences live Tweeting from Fukushima after the disastrous 2011 earthquake, and continued to regularly use Twitter for the next 15 years before receiving a lifetime ban in 2022. Overall, this episode sheds light on the challenges journalists face in maintaining journalistic integrity, navigating social media, and ensuring accurate information reaches the public.

Joe Biden lashed out at Donald Trump during his State of the Union address, who'll almost certainly be his election rival again in November. The US President also came up with an initiative to get food into Gaza. But how many will be convinced by what Biden had to say?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: While speaking from Eagle Pass, Texas, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he met with the parents of Laken Riley—a 22-year-old University of Georgia student who was murdered by an undocumented migrant last Thursday. Trump stated, “[President] Joe Biden will never say Laken Riley's name, but we will…We're not going to forget her.” He went on to explain that undocumented migrants are pouring across the U.S. Southern border unchecked as part of the “Joe Biden invasion.” During his visit to Eagle Pass, Trump was accompanied by Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) who, similarly, called on President Biden to use executive action to halt the ongoing chaos at the border. Meanwhile, speaking from Brownsville, Texas, President Biden said this administration—as well as local Texas officials—are working hard to create a “safe secure border.” Biden then emphatically stated “it is time to act,” calling on Congress to pass legislation that will guarantee border officials have the resources they need while drastically increasing the number of judges available to process the asylum claims of migrants entering the country. But wouldn't expediting asylum claims potentially encourage more migrants to flood the U.S. Southern border? Chief National Correspondent for The Daily Caller Henry Rodgers writes: “Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Chairman Brad Wenstrup sent a letter Thursday to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Robert Califf regarding an investigation into possible political interference on the accelerated approval of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine. The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the letter, which mentions a recent Select Subcommittee hearing where Dr. Peter Marks' testimony suggested that the FDA's approval of the COVID-19 vaccine may have been rushed in order to meet timing set by government entities. On the day immediately following the FDA's approval of the vaccine, the Biden Administration called for COVID-19 vaccine mandates.” You can read the full report here: https://dailycaller.com/2024/02/29/exclusive-covid-committee-food-drug-administration-fda-rushed-vaccine-approval/ Flashback: Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD) ridiculously suggested that if Donald Trump's presidential immunity claims are proven to be valid, then the sitting president would be incentivized to assassinate political rivals to avoid impeachment. During a House hearing on Thursday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin revealed that he sometimes goes several days without communicating with President Joe Biden. What's worse: a Leap Year birthday or a birthday on Christmas?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (02/29/2024): 3:05pm- On Wednesday, during a speech from the Senate floor, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced that he would be stepping down from his leadership position at the end of the term in November. Though, he does not plan to resign from the Senate. McConnell, now 82-years-old, has served in the U.S. Senate for nearly 40-years and has been the leader of the Senate Republican Conference since 2007. So, who will replace McConnell in November? Audrey Fahlberg of National Review writes: “November may be a long way off, but the shadow race to succeed McConnell is now coming into public view after unfolding behind closed doors for months. Leading the race are the ‘three Johns'—Senate GOP whip John Thune of South Dakota, conference chair John Barrasso of Wyoming, and former whip John Cornyn of Texas—all of whom have spent the past year or so privately signaling to colleagues that they would be eager to fill the role when the time came for McConnell to step aside.” You can read more here: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/with-mcconnells-announcement-the-race-for-senate-gop-leader-emerges-from-behind-closed-doors/ 3:15pm- In a recently published article for The Washington Post, Danielle Paquette writes about how Republicans have become growingly reluctant to send tens-of-billions of dollars in additional aid to Ukraine. Paquette blames partisan politics, but could it be that the hesitancy stems from the lack of a coherent plan to end the war between Russia and Ukraine—coupled with the Biden Administration's refusal to spend money to secure the U.S. Southern border? You can read Paquette's article here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/02/29/ukraine-support-alabama-political-divide/# 3:35pm- On Thursday, President Joe Biden and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are visiting the U.S. Southern border in two separate trips. President Biden will be visiting Brownsville, Texas. During an interview with Fox News, President of the National Border Patrol Council Brandon Judd criticized Biden's selection of Brownsville, explaining: “he's not going to any location where he's going to be able to evaluate what he needs to do.” Meanwhile, Trump's visit will take place in Eagle Pass, Texas—a city impacted by massive amounts of migrants crossing the border unlawfully. 3:40pm- In an interview with NewsNation, Democrat Congressman Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX) told viewers that President Joe Biden should speak out against cities that embrace “Sanctuary City” status. 3:45pm- President Joe Biden continues to insist that he has no control over the influx of migrants crossing the U.S. Southern border unlawfully. But as Rich Lowry notes in his most recent article for National Review, “Joe Biden was inaugurated on January 20, 2021. Less than two weeks later, on February 2, he issued the executive order that began the unraveling at the border in earnest. The border crisis isn't something that happened to President Biden. It's not a product of circumstances or understandable policy mistakes made under duress. No, he sought it and created it, on principle and as a matter of urgency.”  Lowry continues: “The February 2 action… put on the chopping block numerous Trump policies that had helped establish order at the border, from Trump's expansion of expedited removal, to his termination of a parole program for Central American minors, to his memorandum urging the relevant departments to work toward ending ‘catch and release.' Most importantly, it went after two of the pillars of Trump's success at the border: the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), or so-called Remain in Mexico, and the safe-third-country agreements with the Northern Triangle countries that allowed us to divert asylum-seekers to Central American countries other than their own, where they could make asylum claims.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/02/the-day-joe-biden-blew-up-the-border/ 3:55pm- The Rich Zeoli Show has won the 2024 Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasters award for Outstanding Radio Personality/Team. The show also won the award last year. Rich wonders why Matt hasn't submitted a package for a Marconi Award…and a Nobel Prize? 4:05pm- While speaking with Charlamagne Tha God, Dr. Phil claimed that Facebook and Instagram suppressed a recent video he posted documenting chaos at the U.S. Southern border. 4:10pm- MSNBC legal analyst and University of Michigan law professor Barbara McQuade told Rachel Maddow that the First Amendment's protection of free speech makes America vulnerable to misinformation. McQuade insisted that no one is endorsing a weakening of the First Amendment—right before she hinted that regulating speech might be beneficial. 4:25pm- While speaking from Eagle Pass, Texas, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he met with the parents of Laken Riley—a 22-year-old University of Georgia student who was murdered by an undocumented migrant last Thursday. Trump stated, “[President] Joe Biden will never say Laken Riley's name, but we will…We're not going to forget her.” He went on to explain that undocumented migrants are pouring across the U.S. Southern border unchecked as part of the “Joe Biden invasion.” During his visit to Eagle Pass, Trump was accompanied by Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) who, similarly, called on President Biden to use executive action to halt the ongoing chaos at the border. 4:45pm- While speaking from Brownsville, Texas, President Joe Biden said this administration—as well as local Texas officials—are working hard to create a “safe, secure border.” Biden then emphatically stated “it is time to act,” calling on Congress to pass legislation that will guarantee border officials have the resources they need while drastically increasing the number of judges available to process the asylum claims of migrants entering the country. But wouldn't expediting asylum claims potentially encourage more migrants to flood the U.S. Southern border? 5:05pm- While speaking from Eagle Pass, Texas, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he met with the parents of Laken Riley—a 22-year-old University of Georgia student who was murdered by an undocumented migrant last Thursday.

On MSNBC, Rachel Maddow told her audience that if the court rules in Trump's favor he may never leave the White House—and will be president forever. “Professor” Rich Zeoli provides the audience with an incredibly hilarious (though, perhaps not entirely accurate) history lesson that you won't soon forget! 5:50pm- Jess Bravin of The Wall Street Journal writes: “The Supreme Court agreed to consider whether Donald Trump must stand trial on charges he plotted to overturn the 2020 election, after lower courts rejected his claim that he is entitled to absolute immunity because he was president at the time. The court's move means it will have final say on an issue the judiciary never confronted before Trump. But it also means the former president has bought himself more months before any trial, which had been scheduled to start in early March before the immunity battle scuttled those plans. The court scheduled oral arguments for the week of April 22. A decision is likely before July.” You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/supreme-court-to-say-if-donald-trump-must-stand-trial-in-2020-election-conspiracy-case-1b7f4e3f?mod=hp_lead_pos1 6:05pm- While speaking from Eagle Pass, Texas, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he met with the parents of Laken Riley—a 22-year-old University of Georgia student who was murdered by an undocumented migrant last Thursday. Trump stated, “[President] Joe Biden will never say Laken Riley's name, but we will…We're not going to forget her.” He went on to explain that undocumented migrants are pouring across the U.S. Southern border unchecked as part of the “Joe Biden invasion.” During his visit to Eagle Pass, Trump was accompanied by Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) who, similarly, called on President Biden to use executive action to halt the ongoing chaos at the border. Meanwhile, speaking from Brownsville, Texas, President Biden said this administration—as well as local Texas officials—are working hard to create a “safe secure border.” Biden then emphatically stated “it is time to act,” calling on Congress to pass legislation that will guarantee border officials have the resources they need while drastically increasing the number of judges available to process the asylum claims of migrants entering the country. But wouldn't expediting asylum claims potentially encourage more migrants to flood the U.S. Southern border? 6:10pm- Chief National Correspondent for The Daily Caller Henry Rodgers writes: “Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Chairman Brad Wenstrup sent a letter Thursday to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Robert Califf regarding an investigation into possible political interference on the accelerated approval of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine. The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the letter, which mentions a recent Select Subcommittee hearing where Dr. Peter Marks' testimony suggested that the FDA's approval of the COVID-19 vaccine may have been rushed in order to meet timing set by government entities. On the day immediately following the FDA's approval of the vaccine, the Biden Administration called for COVID-19 vaccine mandates.” You can read the full report here: https://dailycaller.com/2024/02/29/exclusive-covid-committee-food-drug-administration-fda-rushed-vaccine-approval/ 6:15pm- Flashback: Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD) ridiculously suggested that if Donald Trump's presidential immunity claims are proven to be valid, then the sitting president would be incentivized to assassinate political rivals to avoid impeachment. 6:35pm- During a House hearing on Thursday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin revealed that he sometimes goes several days without communicating with President Joe Biden. 6:50pm- What's worse: a Leap Year birthday or a birthday on Christmas?

Jon Ward is Yahoo News' Chief National Correspondent and he's written an account of his faith journey as well as of his journalism career that will spark many debates —civil— and which deserves a wide audience. He joined Hugh for an hour's conversation about “Testimony.” Pre-order: https://www.jonwardwrites.org/book/testimonySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“What can people do about the fact that things are so tense with their families, especially when it comes to politics?” This is one of the pressing questions that Russell Moore poses to Jon Ward, Chief National Correspondent for Yahoo News. A long-time political reporter, Ward acutely perceives the relationship between religion and politics in America. His new book, Testimony: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Failed a Generation chronicles Ward's upbringing in, and eventual separation from, a well-known church that emerged at the intersection of Pentecostalism, the church growth movement, the Jesus Movement, and the New Calvinism.  On this episode, Ward and Moore talk about what it's like to look back on the church experiences of their earlier years and notice the political manifestations they hadn't seen as young people. They talk about the ways various evangelical movements engaged society, the role of social media, and whether or not institutionalism is the answer to cultural problems. And they talk about what it looks like to maintain meaningful connections with family members when political differences threaten to break relationships.  Tune in for a conversation that is full of heartfelt honesty and thoughtful insight not only into the state of American faith and politics today, but how we got here.   Resources mentioned in this episode include: Camelot's End by Jon Ward Testimony by Jon Ward Untrustworthy by Bonnie Kristian Axios 2023 Asbury Revival Timothy George “Development of the Spiritual Harm and Abuse Scale” by Dan Koch “The Toronto Blessing”    Click here for a trial membership at Christianity Today. “The Russell Moore Show” is a production of Christianity Today   Executive Producers: Erik Petrik, Russell Moore, and Mike Cosper   Host: Russell Moore   Producer: Ashley Hales   Associate Producers: Abby Perry and Azurae Phelps   CT Administration: Christine Kolb   Social Media: Kate Lucky   Director of Operations for CT Media: Matt Stevens   Production Assistance: coreMEDIA  Audio Engineer: Kevin Duthu   Coordinator: Beth Grabenkort   Video Producer: John Roland   Theme Song: “Dusty Delta Day” by Lennon Hutton Learn more about your ad choices.
