No one doubts the bravery of the thousands of men who flew and died in Bomber Command. The death rate was an appalling 44%. And yet until the opening of a monument in Green Park in 2012 they had received no official recognition, with many historians claiming that the offensive was immoral and unjustified. How can it be right, they argue, for the Allies to have deliberately targeted German cities causing the death of hundreds of thousands of civilians? Even on a strategic level the offensive failed to bring about the collapse of civilian morale that was its intention. Others, however, maintain that the attacks made a decisive contribution to the Allied victory. Vast numbers of German soldiers and planes were diverted from the eastern and western fronts, while Allied bombing attacks virtually destroyed the German air force, clearing the way for the invasion of the continent. Arguing for the motion were AC Grayling, philosopher and author of 'Among the Dead Cities: Is the Targeting of Civilians in War Ever Justified?'; and Richard Overy, Professor of history at Exeter University who has published extensively on World War II and air power in the 20th century. Arguing against them were Antony Beevor, award-winning historian and author of the No. 1 international bestseller 'The Second World War'; and Patrick Bishop, historian and author of 'Bomber Boys'. The debate was chaired by Jeremy O'Grady, Editor-in-chief of The Week magazine and co-founder of Intelligence Squared. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This is the definitive episode you've been waiting for. We expose the Deep State's war on the American people, starting with the explosive "burn bag" documents that prove the entire Russia collusion narrative was a political "team sport" designed to indict a president. We reveal how top officials told agents to "shut it down" when it came to investigating Hillary Clinton, all while weaponizing government agencies against Trump. Then, we dive into the second front of the war: illegal immigration. From Trump's bold plan to use federal authority to take back sanctuary cities, to a powerful clip of a Democratic alderman admitting his own party is "enamored with criminals," we lay out the full scale of the battle to take back our nation. Plus, we discuss how the swamp is fighting back, and the high-stakes political hostage situation preventing Trump from enacting his agenda.

This episode breaks down the latest economic news, including a rise in wholesale inflation and the ongoing challenges of the national debt, which is described as a "Ponzi scheme." It also discusses newly declassified documents that allegedly expose the Russia collusion narrative as a "team sport" among intelligence agencies to frame Donald Trump. The show then covers Trump's strategy to use federal power to take back "sanctuary cities" and dismantle cartel operations. Finally, it includes a humorous but critical take on public etiquette, specifically focusing on parents who don't remove crying children from events.

It looks like the end it's coming soon and the threat is coming from a type of animal that is so organized that they've made a society and they're rising up.

Is Trump's anti-crime offensive in D.C. a political winner? Why is it important for conservatives to care about cities that will never vote Republican no matter what happens? Charlie delves into the topic with both Alex Marlow and Sen. Rick Scott.

8.11.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Trump Seizes D.C. Police, 800 Guard Deployed; TX Dems Block Quorum; VA Axes 400K Union Contracts Donald Trump has done something no president has ever done before.... Putting D.C.'s police force under federal control and sending in 800 National Guard troops. The mayor calls Trump's actions "unsettling and unprecedented." We'll talk with Markus Batchelor from People For the American Way about what this means for democracy and civil rights in the nation's capital. Meanwhile, for a second straight week, more than 50 Texas House Democrats remain out of state, blocking Republicans from reaching the quorum needed to push through a controversial mid-decade redistricting plan. We'll bring you the latest on this high stakes political standoff and what it means for voting rights in Texas. And in a sweeping move affecting hundreds of thousands of workers, the Department of Veterans Affairs has terminated union contracts for over 400,000 employees. We'll break down which unions are impacted and what this means for VA staff nationwide. #BlackStarNetwork partner: Fanbasehttps://www.startengine.com/offering/fanbase This Reg A+ offering is made available through StartEngine Primary, LLC, member FINRA/SIPC.

Paul Mauro, Fox News Contributor, attorney and retired NYPD inspector, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss why policing in major cities has been on a downward spiral, driven by the left's dismantling of effective law enforcement policies.

Crime in Cities is Center Stage, Crazy Lawrence Stories and Frank White Recall Update | 8-12-25See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On "The Tara Show," the host discusses how a protest in Washington, D.C. was overshadowed by a murder just blocks away, a stark example of the city's crime problem. The host argues that crime statistics are being deliberately falsified by D.C. officials to hide the truth about the city's escalating violence. The show expands on this theme of political deception by examining a new candidate for mayor in Minneapolis, Omar Fateh, who the host claims prioritizes illegal immigrants over other citizens. The segment connects these domestic issues to international politics, referencing Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum's condemnation of ICE raids and her claim that America needs Mexican immigrants. The host argues that Sheinbaum is in a hostage situation with cartels and that Democrats are pushing for a similar model in the U.S. to gain power. The show concludes with a discussion about a major difference in policy between the current and former administrations. The host praises the President for prioritizing the creation of a 75,000-strong ICE force to combat illegal immigration, in contrast to the previous administration's plan for an 80,000-strong IRS army. The host also announces that the President has appointed Dr. E.J. Antoni to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a move he believes will restore trust in America's economic data, which he claims has been previously manipulated for political gain. The host concludes by criticizing Republican Senate leadership for blocking these appointments.

This week the guys finish up their look at Wycherley's How the Greeks Built Cities. We pick up the text with a consideration of the “agora,” a term (as Wycherley emphasizes) that encompasses much more than the translation “marketplace” gets at. Yes, it was a center of business, but also politics, athletics, entertainment, philosophy, and education, while also giving rise to particular architectural features like the stoa. From there we delve into other key features that nearly every Greek polis had—religious shrines, gymnasia, stadiums. Where did the Greeks tend to place these things in their cities?  We employ very similar structures and practices today, but do we use or understand them in the same way? After all that we cap it off with a look at residential life, and the form and function of a typical Greek house.

The revelation that shattered systems thinking: Replacing every combustion car with electric vehicles improves urban efficiency by only 6%—revealing why isolated optimizations fail in complex ecosystems.Dr. Parfait Atchadé from MIT Media Lab discovered this through quantum-enhanced urban modeling in Boston's Kendall Square. His breakthrough: humanized AI agents with emotional architectures that "live" in virtual cities for decades of compressed time, then vote on configurations—exposing the systematic failure of single-variable optimization. Paradigm Shifts:→ The Single-Solution Trap: Complex systems require the vast majority of improvements from interconnected changes—individual optimizations create illusion of progress while missing systemic impact→ Quantum Superposition Planning: Test multiple city configurations simultaneously rather than sequential scenarios—compress 40 years of urban experience into months of simulation→ Agents with Feelings: AI agents embedded with emotional models (joy, fear, anger, sadness) provide qualitative experience data impossible to capture from human stakeholders→ Portfolio Voting Revolution: Beyond binary decisions—split voting percentages across options like investment portfolios, enabling nuanced collective optimization→ Traditional systems modeling: Sequential scenario testing vs. Quantum approach: Parallel reality simulation with dramatic efficiency gainsThe Innovation: Humanized Agent-Based Modeling (h-ABM) creates digital beings with memory, perception, and emotional responses that navigate virtual systems, accumulating experiences and providing stakeholder insights traditional analytics cannot capture.Strategic Application: Any complex ecosystem requiring multi-stakeholder optimization—from organizational transformation to supply chain design—can leverage quantum-enhanced modeling with emotionally-intelligent agents.Strategic Reframe: The most adaptive ecosystems will shift from asking "How do we optimize individual components?" to understanding: "How do we architect systems where quantum-enhanced agents can help us reveal the hidden interdependencies that single-solution approaches systematically miss?"#EcosystemicFutures #QuantumComputing #SystemsThinking #UrbanPlanning #MIT #ComplexSystems #AgentBasedModelingGuest: Dr. Parfait Atchadé, Research Affiliate, MIT Media Lab | Strategic Business Officer, Lighthouse DIGHost: Marco Annunziata, Co-founder, Annunziata & Desai AdvisorsSeries Hosts: Vikram Shyam, Lead Futurist, NASA Glenn Research Center Dyan Finkhousen, Founder & CEO, Shoshin WorksEcosystemic Futures is provided by NASA Convergent Aeronautics Solutions Project in collaboration with Shoshin Works.
