WORT 89.9FM Madison · Pressing Issues: Printmaking as Social Justice Katie Koca Polite – assistant curator and publications specialist. With prints from the Works Progress Administration (WPA). (Photo by L. Brian Stauffer) During the Great Depression in the 1930s, workers from all industries suddenly found themselves without a job.  In response, U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal program created institutions like the Civilian Conservation Corps, the Works Progress Administration and the Public Works Administration to put people to work on projects that would benefit the public.  In addition to civil engineering projects focused on employing workers in construction, factory work, office work and forestry, the Roosevelt Administration also paid attention to another group whose work had disappeared: artists.  In 1935, the Works Progress Administration established the Federal Art Project, which employed as many as 10,000 visual artists and craft workers.  On September 8, the Chazen Museum of Art will open a new exhibit, “Pressing Issues: Printmaking as Social Justice in the 1930s,” featuring works by Federal Art Project artists.  Kathryn Koca Polite curated the new exhibit, and she joined the Monday Buzz on August 2, 2026.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports Russian missile and drone strikes across Ukraine kill at least 8 civilians and wound dozens as Ukraine continues to strike Russian targets.

If you've ever flipped off a buddy driving past on the highway, stopped cold when you heard reveille, or felt physically uncomfortable when someone thanked you for your service, you already know what this episode is. Twenty habits from military life that never fully leave you, and that can seriously confuse the civilians around you. In this episode, I walk through the full list: from greeting your best friends with the middle finger to standing at the position of attention during the national anthem, from using military lingo in normal conversation to keeping contingency plans for a night at a concert. Some of these are funny. Some hit different. All of them are real.   Timestamps (00:00) - Intro (00:32) - Flipping Off Friends (01:39) - National Anthem Stance (02:15) - Roasting and Branch Rivalry (02:51) - Avoiding Political Discourse (03:45) - Military Attire and Habits (04:23) - Military Lingo (04:36) - Waking Up at 5:30 AM (04:46) - Judging Posture and Appearance (05:03) - Showing Up Early (05:19) - Dark Humor (05:42) - Sounds That Hit Different (06:09) - Last Names and Overpacking (06:48) - Using Acronyms (07:01) - Contingency Plans (07:24) - "Living the Dream" (07:57) - Avoiding the Grass (08:12) - Being Thanked for Service   About the Show On the Military Millionaire Podcast, I share real conversations with service members, veterans, and their families.

The Secretary of State went on television and refused to rule out striking civilian targets. "A head for an eye," Marco Rubio said — boasting about sending a country back to the Stone Age. At the same time, the Pentagon has cancelled press briefings, killed reporter embeds with combat units, and gone dark on casualty numbers. Paul Rieckhoff joins Katy Tur on MS Now to lay out what that combination actually means: an administration waging war without the accountability the Constitution demands, and military families left in the dark about whether their people are coming home. Paul draws on his own time as an infantry rifle platoon leader in Iraq to explain why the laws of war exist in the first place — they protect our troops when they're captured, they hold the line against retaliation on our allies, and they're the difference between a professional military and a political weapon. He also breaks down the president parading a Gold Star family at a Georgia rally, the New York Times reporting on strikes against Iranian escape routes, and why the erosion of the wall between the troops and the politicians is the exact mistake America made before Vietnam. This one is short, sharp, and essential. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.

In her new book Safe Passage, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Evelyn Iritani reveals one of World War II's little-known diplomatic triumphs—the rescue of nearly 3,000 Allied civilians held by Japan in two exchanges at sea—and the high price that was paid by the thousands of innocent men, women and children, mostly of Japanese descent, who were traded to a country that was no longer, and may never have been, their home. Sojourners and immigrants, diplomats and thrill-seekers, storytellers and proselytizers. Uprooted by a conflict of someone else's making, this eclectic mix of humanity from both sides of the Pacific found themselves on a voyage across war-torn waters that would transform them in surprising, often tragic, and sometimes inexplicable ways. In the fall of 1943, during some of the Pacific theater's bloodiest battles, the United States and Japan pulled off a diplomatic coup: the exchange of civilians caught on the wrong side of the battlefield after Pearl Harbor. Nearly 1,500 Allied civilians trapped in Asia, mostly Americans, sailed through dangerous waters to an Indian port city, where they were traded for an equivalent number of Japanese immigrants and their families sent from the Americas. The fate of the more than 10,000 Americans left behind rested on the success of this endeavor. In Safe Passage, Iritani reveals the herculean efforts of the American diplomat James Keeley to engineer these wartime exchanges despite great resistance from within and outside his government; the shipboard conflicts among passengers, including missionaries, revelers, and sharp-tongued journalists; and the moral compromises involved in securing their safe passage. Faced with too few bodies to trade and desperate to free Americans from perilous conditions, the United States uprooted and repatriated Japanese citizens of Latin America, sometimes against their will, while Japanese imprisoned in camps, many of them American citizens, were forced to choose between expulsion to a war zone or an uncertain future behind barbed wire. The result is a revelatory account of the hurdles to pursuing humanitarian action in wartime. About the Speakers Evelyn Iritani is an author, historian and former reporter for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and the Los Angeles Times, where her reporting garnered numerous awards, including the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for a series she coauthored on Wal-Mart.

Chuck Todd devotes much of this episode to a rich, personal reflection on the death of Senator Lindsey Graham at 71 — a figure who can only be understood if you separate the ideologues from the pure politicians, because Graham was unambiguously the latter. Graham always wanted to be in the middle of the Republican Party, treated his Senate seat as something as precious to him as a spouse, and was a genuine political creature who could nonetheless work with everyone, partnering with both Trump and Obama across his career. Chuck shares personal memories — interviewing Graham alongside John McCain, the two of them giving outsized attention to the Steele Dossier; Graham losing his parents in his 20s and raising his 13-year-old sister; even reassuring Chuck’s own wife about her worries over Trump — and argues that Graham, for all his capitulations, actually served as one of the few moderating forces on Trump. He lays out the very real political fallout: Todd Blanche's confirmation as Attorney General is now in serious jeopardy, Graham leaves a massive vacuum in the GOP conference, and his South Carolina seat could actually be competitive for Democrat Annie Andrews if the Republican primary lurches far enough to the right. From there Chuck draws a series of parallels between American and British politics — Labour returning to power on a promise of competence and stability, Nigel Farage (like Trump) trying to convert political fame into personal wealth, and the satirical candidate "Count Binface" holding up a mirror to a political culture that has become pure theater — musing, only half-jokingly, that America could use its own Count Binface. Chuck closes on a sober note about the U.S.-Israel relationship, which he believes is heading for a real retreat: he recalls how close the region came to a two-state peace two decades ago, how the collapse of that moment allowed radicalism to escalate on both sides until each could argue the other doesn't want peace, and points to Rahm Emanuel's recent speech in Israel — warning that Israel must articulate a vision for what comes after the war or risk isolating itself from younger and moderate Americans — as the sound of someone trying to save a political center that vanishes the moment people conclude moderates don't have answers. Then, John Morgan — founder of Morgan & Morgan, one of the largest personal injury firms in the country & author of "Life is Luck: Lessons From a Paperboy and How to Improve Your Luck" joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation about civil litigation, the failures of government regulation, and his plan to launch a third party in Florida. Morgan makes the case that civil litigation has grown precisely because government has failed to regulate — social media is a genuine threat to human wellbeing (especially for children), monopolies are squeezing consumers, and processed foods, he argues, are the new tobacco: extremely harmful and ripe for legal reckoning. He offers a candid, colorful assessment of his former firm member RFK Jr. — "smart and crazy," a man who falls down some rabbit holes but also champions legitimate causes — and walks through the thorny reality that vaccine makers enjoy total indemnity while sovereign immunity exists in some form in all 50 states. Morgan is refreshingly honest about the ethics of his own industry, arguing that ads gloating about settlement numbers are a mistake because the real goal of a settlement is to give someone back something they lost, not to celebrate a payday. The heart of the conversation is Morgan's plan to launch a new third party in Florida called "Common Ground," rooted in his conviction that the two-party system itself is what's fundamentally broken in America. Morgan argues that moderates should function as the tiebreakers in a polarized system — that picking up just a few seats could turn an uncommitted moderate bloc into a genuine fulcrum of power in Congress — and explains why he'd rather build something new than partner with the existing Forward Party. He handicaps Florida's political landscape with an insider's candor: Byron Donalds likely wins the governorship but it'll be close, the Charlie Crist party-switch playbook never worked, and he's genuinely unsure whether voters can find David Jolly credible after his own party change.. Morgan laments that too many people now enter politics for the pension and salary rather than public service, criticizes DeSantis for appointing cronies as university presidents, and argues age limits are overdue because government should be about the future and very few politicians remain effective past 70. Along the way he explains why he thinks Texas Democrats fielded a more viable ticket than Florida's (James Talarico, he says, simply has "it"), why Andy Beshear won in Kentucky, why charter schools are about money rather than choice, and why DeSantis's property tax proposal could become a Brexit-style case study in voters making decisions that make no sense once the consequences arrive. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to break down the messy build up and coalitions involved in the Spanish civil war, and what lessons modern America can take from it. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and make a proposal for a change to the baseball Hall of Fame.

Chuck Todd devotes much of this episode to a rich, personal reflection on the death of Senator Lindsey Graham at 71 — a figure who can only be understood if you separate the ideologues from the pure politicians, because Graham was unambiguously the latter. Graham always wanted to be in the middle of the Republican Party, treated his Senate seat as something as precious to him as a spouse, and was a genuine political creature who could nonetheless work with everyone, partnering with both Trump and Obama across his career. Chuck shares personal memories — interviewing Graham alongside John McCain, the two of them giving outsized attention to the Steele Dossier; Graham losing his parents in his 20s and raising his 13-year-old sister; even reassuring Chuck’s own wife about her worries over Trump — and argues that Graham, for all his capitulations, actually served as one of the few moderating forces on Trump. He lays out the very real political fallout: Todd Blanche's confirmation as Attorney General is now in serious jeopardy, Graham leaves a massive vacuum in the GOP conference, and his South Carolina seat could actually be competitive for Democrat Annie Andrews if the Republican primary lurches far enough to the right. From there Chuck draws a series of parallels between American and British politics — Labour returning to power on a promise of competence and stability, Nigel Farage (like Trump) trying to convert political fame into personal wealth, and the satirical candidate "Count Binface" holding up a mirror to a political culture that has become pure theater — musing, only half-jokingly, that America could use its own Count Binface. Chuck closes on a sober note about the U.S.-Israel relationship, which he believes is heading for a real retreat: he recalls how close the region came to a two-state peace two decades ago, how the collapse of that moment allowed radicalism to escalate on both sides until each could argue the other doesn't want peace, and points to Rahm Emanuel's recent speech in Israel — warning that Israel must articulate a vision for what comes after the war or risk isolating itself from younger and moderate Americans — as the sound of someone trying to save a political center that vanishes the moment people conclude moderates don't have answers. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to break down the messy build up and coalitions involved in the Spanish civil war, and what lessons modern America can take from it. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and make a proposal for a change to the baseball Hall of Fame. From the opening whistle to the final kick.

George Black, guest author, recounts how, in the aftermath of the war, the United States struggled with the trauma of its first major defeat, often looking for scapegoats like the media or "faithless civilians." This bitterness manifested in the MIA/POW issue, which became a massive political obstacle to normalizing relations with Vietnam. A legend persisted that living American prisoners were being held in the jungles of Laos, despite repeated congressional investigations finding no credible evidence. This movement, fueled by conspiracy theories and Hollywood celebrities, blocked conversations about the war's actual damage for over a decade. While the search for remains was a moral humanitarian obligation, the focus on living MIAs prevented the US from addressing the herbicidal damage and unexploded ordnance left behind. Meanwhile, individuals like Adelaide Borton observed deformed babies in Vietnamese hospitals, though these reports were largely ignored in Washington. Normalization only began in earnest during the late 1980s and 1990s as the US shifted toward engaging the Vietnamese for cooperation on finding remains. American veterans finally won recognition for Agent Orange-related illnesses in 1991, though Vietnamese victims were dismissed as purveyors of "communist propaganda." The Long Reckoning (5)

As we approach the 4th of July, our Independence Day, I think it's an extremely appropriate time to have the discussion around the prepared citizen, why "staying in your lane" is a terrible idea, and the history of armed civilians and their impact. From the very inception of our great country, the capable citizen has been one of the most vital parts of our country, and our culture. In today's community, we're often looked down upon, and mostly for good reason. While we have a lot to offer, and own a tremendous piece of the battle for our independence, in recent times, we have allowed ego and weak confidence to validate poor performance and low standards. I dive into the opportunities presented to all of us as citizens of the United States, and highlight the importance of becoming more fit, more proficient, and more effective. For those of us without a uniform, I think this is a critical point of conversation, and one we hold ourselves accountable for.Visit our sponsors!Our Patreon - www.patreon.com/prepared_mindset_podCustom Night Vision - www.customnightvision.comUS Duty Gear - https://usdutygear.com/ code 'PreparedMindset'

Earlier today, the terrorist government of Ukraine carried out a terror attack on a bus full of children. Using a drone.  This was the Belarusian children's football team in Russia's Bryansk region. The group with their parents were headed for a vacation. One woman was killed and 6 others injured, 4 of which were children. Many of these drones are being built by EU or Western Countries. Which Russia has said are now legitimate targets. Canada is a big supplier of these drones... Canadian prime minister Carney this morning admitting that they are one of Ukraine's key suppliers.  

Poland, which is regularly targeted by Russian hybrid attacks, takes the threat of war with Moscow very seriously. The country now spends nearly 5 percent of its GDP on defence, and aims to train its civilians too, so they will know how to react if war breaks out. To this end, it has introduced a programme of one-day training sessions with the army, entitled "Always Ready", which have turned out to be a runaway success. FRANCE 24's Adrien Sarlat and Jan Garstecki joined some of the participants at a session near Warsaw.

2026-06-14 | UPDATES #214 | The Institute for the Study of War has formalised the analytical framework that explains why the campaign is achieving its current operational tempo. ISW's June 2026 analysis, as cited by the AP wire reporting: the long-range strike campaign is therefore reducing Russia's production capacity, while the midrange strike campaign is hurting Russia's ability to transport the gasoline Russia is still able to produce.This is what that doctrine means operationally. Long-range strikes — like the 1,500-kilometre reach to Salavat in Bashkortostan, the 1,700-km reach demonstrated against southern Russian targets, the Kotovo and Saratov-region pumping nodes — destroy production capacity. The refinery cannot be quickly rebuilt. The AVT units take months to replace. The destroyed production is gone from the market for the duration of the rebuild.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------ACTIVE CAMPAIGN:We are raising funds for 5 of 15 Vampire DronesSilicon Curtain for Kupiansk Vampires.

Episode #553: Naw Moo Moo Paw grew up in a Karen village near Bago where conflict and landmines were part of everyday life. “I have seen a lot of people injured or die because of the war and intense conflict,” she says. “This is very normal for me.” Today, she is a PhD candidate in Global Studies at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, where her research focuses on what happens to people, their bodies, livelihoods, and place in their communities affected by political violence. She has interviewed civilians, injured soldiers, and active resistance fighters, gaining access to armed groups most outside researchers cannot reach. Resistance groups in ethnic Karen communities have used landmines primarily as a defensive tactic, but the warnings offered to civilians are frequently imprecise. For many, the warning changes little. “Civilians, they have to work on a daily basis, so that they can survive, for their economy, to take care of their family.” People are warned, but they have to go on with their lives. She finds that accountability is increasingly difficult to establish. Mines captured from military bases are reused by resistance groups, propaganda obscures who planted what, and records of mine locations can die with the soldier who laid them. “I think both sides are violating the law,” she says. Civilians, she finds, rarely assign blame. They understand the nature of war, fear the land's growing unpredictability, and keep moving because they have no choice. Those injured in warned areas often face community ostracism, and too many take their own lives. As a Karen scholar, Naw Moo Moo Paw wants local knowledge, history, and experience placed at the center of any peace. “I want [Karen people's] voices to be included in the future, too.”

Berlin wasn't blockaded — and that changes everything you think.Was Berlin really “blockaded” in 1948? Or have we been repeating a Cold War myth for nearly eighty years?In this explosive episode of History Rage, cultural historian and author Joseph Pearson dismantles one of the most entrenched narratives of the early Cold War. We all know the story: Stalin sealed off West Berlin, starving its people, and the West heroically saved the city through the Berlin Airlift. But what if Berlin was never truly blockaded at all?Drawing on deep archival research and firsthand accounts from Berliners, Pearson argues that the term “blockade” is historically misleading. While ground and rail access from West Germany was restricted, movement between East and West Berlin continued. Civilians crossed borders. Food flowed in. Even Soviet authorities offered rations. The airlift was real — and extraordinary — but the idea of a city completely sealed off is far more myth than fact.We explore:What a “blockade” actually means — and why the word mattersHow ordinary Berliners experienced the airliftThe women who built Tegel Airport in just 90 daysThe terrifying near-misses that could have sparked World War IIIThe propaganda war that turned former enemies into alliesWhy the Berlin Airlift remains a masterclass in geopolitical brinkmanshipJoseph Pearson, originally from Canada and now based in Berlin, specialises in everyday history — the lived experience behind the headlines. His latest book examines the Berlin Airlift through the eyes of civilians and pilots, revealing a more complex, human and politically charged story.Guest Details:Joseph Pearson is a cultural historian and author based in Berlin.Book: The Airlift: Victories, Myths, and the Berlin BlockadeBuy here: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781803998220Follow Joseph on Instagram @writing_josephIf you care about Cold War history, post-war Germany, the Berlin Blockade, the Berlin Airlift, or how propaganda shapes memory — this episode will challenge what you thought you knew.Episode recommendations:Episode 219 – Giles Milton on Post War Berlin - https://pod.fo/e/2f6bc6Episode 103 – Katja Hoyer on East Germany - https://pod.fo/e/21793e Follow & Support History Rage

Chunmei Du is an Associate Professor of History at Lingnan University. Her work focuses on the social and cultural history of modern China, specifically looking at cross-cultural encounters and the lived experiences of ordinary individuals during periods of profound political transition. In this New Books Network episode, we chat with Du about her latest book, Everyday Occupation: American Soldiers and Chinese Civilians in the Aftermath of World War II (Cambridge University Press, 2025). While many Anglophone histories about the “loss of China” focus on high-level diplomacy and grand strategy, Everyday Occupation zooms in the street-level micropolitics of a brief period between 1945–1949 when American troops were stationed in post-WWII China. The book explores the daily friction between American soldiers and Chinese civilians—from traffic accidents involving jeeps to the sensory shocks from urban odors—and their impact on Chinese sentiments towards the US. Du reveals how these everyday encounters helped pave the way for the communist takeover of China, and continue to cast a shadow over modern US-China relations. Anthony Kao is a writer who intersects international affairs and cultural criticism. He founded/edits Cinema Escapist—a publication exploring the sociopolitical context behind global film and television—and also writes for outlets like The Guardian, Al Jazeera, The Diplomat, and Eater.

Send us Fan MailPeaches is solo in the team room—and this one turns into a full-on reality check.It starts simple: pre-recording for Nashville, OTS updates, life logistics. Then he rolls into a Pentagon clip that asks one of the dumbest questions imaginable—what does it feel like to order violence? That's where it flips.Peaches breaks down the truth most people will never understand: war isn't emotional, it isn't personal, and it sure as hell isn't about “feeling powerful.” It's about finishing the job and bringing your people home.Then he goes deeper—mindset, awareness, and why most people are walking around completely blind to the world around them. Cooper's Colors, escalation of force, and the uncomfortable reality that sometimes the only winning move… is going all the way to 100.And yeah—he addresses the “dealer of death” crowd too. If you think Americans celebrate killing, you're missing the entire point.Ends strong with the A-10 staying alive—and why that matters more than people think.Bottom line: this isn't a feel-good episode. It's a wake-up call.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Solo Episode—No Safety Net 02:00 Nashville & OTS Updates 05:00 Finding the Right Training Environment 08:00 Pentagon Clip—What Are We Asking? 11:00 “What Does Violence Feel Like?” 14:00 War Isn't Personal 17:00 Cooper's Colors Explained 21:00 Most People Are in White (Clueless) 25:00 Yellow to Orange—Stay Ready 29:00 Red—When It's Go Time 32:00 Why Escalation Gets You Killed 36:00 Going Straight to 100 40:00 The Reality of Violence 44:00 “Dealer of Death” Misunderstood 48:00 Stop Misreading the Military 52:00 A-10 Saved—Now Comes the Hard Part 56:00 Final Thought—Wake Up

Soviet Brutality and the Miscalculations of the 2022 InvasionRussian military strategy is characterized by a historical disregard for human life, a trait visible from Stalin's brutal 1932 letters to modern-day missile strikes on civilians. Stalin viewed Ukraine as a "caricature of a parliament" that needed to be broken; Putin holds a similar cynical view. In 2022, Putin's isolation and lack of expert advice led him to believe the invasion would be a brief "policing operation" rather than a war. He expected a parade, sending riot police in dress uniforms, because he fundamentally refused to recognize Ukraine as a real, independent state capable of resisting. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel.

The "tragedy of the Sunnis" stemmed from their lack of a monolithic political project and internal tribal infighting. In cities like Ramadi, total chaos left civilians caught in the crossfire as ISIS capitalized on fragmentation by providing a sense of "order" for young men. Meanwhile, Iranian intelligence had been quietly building influence since 2003, integrating their trainees into the backbone of the new Iraqi security forces. (6)1934 BAGHDAD
