Jen Psaki looks at some of the happy talk the Trump administration is offering about Donald Trump's war on Iran while outward signs suggest things are not going as well as they would have hoped. Senator Jon Ossoff talks with Jen about Donald Trump's handling of the war and how constituents are reacting to the economic fallout. Rep. Robert Garcia talks with Jen Psaki about questions Democrats in Congress want answered about Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner's role representing the United States in negotiations with countries he has a financial interest in, as well as a new investigation into allegations of impropriety against Corey Lewandowski. Amos Hochstein, an expert in global energy markets, explains why the mess Donald Trump has made with his war on Iran is "the worst energy crisis the world has ever seen," and talks with Jen Psaki about how it could get worse and how long it will take to fix it.

In this powerful episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Dominick Izzo, a retired 16-year veteran police officer who transitioned from the "golden boy" of his Chicago-area department to a vocal whistleblower. During his tenure as a Use of Force expert and Field Training Officer, Izzo exposed illegal surveillance within his own department and called out the coerced confession of an innocent woman by his corrupt chief. Today, he is the author of Before the Badge and the host of Cop Talk LIVE, where he actively warns the public—and potential recruits—about the toxic, unconstitutional nature of modern law enforcement. We start out the podcast talking about why Dominick initially joined the police force and walk through the uncomfortable, slow process of his awakening to the deeply corrupt incentive structures baked into modern policing. He shares an incredible full-circle story about reading a critical article The Free Thought Project wrote about him years ago. He admits it initially pissed him off, but as the veil began to lift, he realized TFTP was absolutely right. This leads us into a deep dive on the reality of policing for profit, exploring how the justice system has fundamentally shifted from "protect and serve" to a massive, state-sponsored revenue collection machine. We then shift gears to discuss the terrifying surveillance net currently being cast over the country, from ubiquitous Flock cameras to automated license plate scanners tracking our every move. The conversation naturally transitions to the paramilitary shift of ICE. Dominick shares his unfiltered thoughts on the recent tragic deaths of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti at the hands of federal agents. He contrasts his past experiences working alongside the old INS with the masked, unaccountable ICE "Metro Teams" we see stomping on the Constitution today. Can the current policing system actually be reformed? Dominick answers this by dropping one of the most profound statements ever made on this show: "Every American should be a threat to the police." We then close the show with our solutions-based segment, We ask Dominick how everyday people can bridge the manufactured political divide, talk to their "Back the Blue" family members without choking each other, and unite against the actual overreach of the state.

Why do so many successful companies eventually lose their way? In this episode of Technovation, Peter High speaks with Eric Ries, entrepreneur, founder of the Long-Term Stock Exchange, and author of The Lean Startup and his new book Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad and How Great Companies Stay Great. Eric argues that corporate corruption rarely begins with bad actors. Instead, it emerges from organizational design—governance structures, incentives, and metrics that gradually push companies away from their original mission. Key highlights from the episode: Corporate corruption is often a design problem, not a character problem Short-term pressure often acts as an “invisible force” inside organizations Organizations behave like “superorganisms,” developing their own intelligence and moral character Metrics can distort behavior when companies mistake the measurement for the goal

The Jeffrey Epstein investigation has been defined by a decades-long trail of corruption, influence, and protection that spans both political parties and powerful institutions. From the very beginning, Epstein's connections to elite figures—from Wall Street moguls and intelligence officials to presidents and royals—seemed to grant him immunity from normal legal consequences. The 2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida, brokered in secret by federal prosecutors under Alex Acosta, remains one of the clearest examples of systemic rot: a sweetheart deal negotiated behind closed doors that shielded Epstein's co-conspirators and effectively nullified justice for dozens of victims. Even as federal agents collected evidence of trafficking and witness tampering, the powerful leaned on their connections to ensure the case was quietly buried.When Epstein was re-arrested in 2019, that same machinery of protection reappeared—just more desperate and more visible. His suspicious “suicide” inside one of the most secure jails in the country occurred amid camera failures, sleeping guards, and missing logs, all while key financial and political figures scrambled to distance themselves. Every step since—sealed records, vanishing evidence, selective prosecutions, and lenient treatment of Ghislaine Maxwell—has reeked of containment rather than accountability. What began as a criminal case against one man has become a case study in institutional corruption, where the truth about Epstein's network of power remains locked behind the same walls that failed to keep him alive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Iran war is somehow both ending and just beginning. Trump wants out, but there's no clean exit. The US bombed an elementary school in Tehran. Iran has a new Ayatollah who's likely worse than the old one. Israel bombed Iranian oil facilities—and the US is reportedly furious. Meanwhile, Trump celebrates rising oil prices ("we make a lot of money"), and American Jews are caught in the crossfire with synagogue attacks at home.Plus: Jim Clyburn is 85 years old and running for his 18th term in Congress (GO HOME, JIM). The Senate will vote on Trump's doomed SAVE Act. Palantir's CEO said the quiet part loud about disrupting democratic power. Republicans lack of desire to regulate AI has consequences and they are showing up against Talarico in Texas. The FBI will be trained by UFC fighters, and Trump endorsed Jake Paul for... something.This is the chaos.

Brad Zerbo and Zak Paine return for another episode of Altered State, mixing political analysis with their signature humor and storytelling. The conversation begins with an optimistic look at the current political moment and why the hosts believe the changes happening in Washington are fundamentally different from past administrations. They discuss the challenges President Trump faces while attempting to reverse decades of policy decisions and navigate a Congress that often resists major reforms. The discussion then shifts into the mechanics of government power, including the history of the filibuster, its origins in Senate rule changes, and how it has been used to stall legislation throughout American history. Brad and Zak explore whether Vice President JD Vance could play a larger role as President of the Senate to push forward key legislation like the SAVE Act. Later in the episode, the hosts examine corruption within the judicial system, highlighting examples of legal double standards, controversial rulings, and the broader impact these decisions have on public trust in the courts.

Newt talks with Seth Keshel, a former Army Captain of Military Intelligence, about his new book, "The American War on Election Corruption," which addresses the need for election reform in the United States. With Keshel's expertise in studying voter registration trends he makes a compelling argument for why restoring election integrity in needed. He highlights issues such as automatic voter registration and mail-in voting as significant factors in election rigging. Keshel argues that these practices have been used to manipulate election outcomes, particularly in battleground states. He advocates for election reforms that would improve the voting process. Keshel's work is featured in a newsletter on Substack, Captain K's Corner, which provides ongoing analysis and insights into political and election-related issues.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since President Trump's return to office, his net worth has nearly doubled to an estimated $7 billion. He's used his office to promote his family's cryptocurrency businesses, pardoned investors and allies, accepted lavish personal gifts and tipped off oil executives before raiding Venezuela. “The Trump family's staggering indifference to blurring the lines between politics and corporate interest once again demonstrates how Trump's presidency is being used to enrich himself and his family rather than serving the needs of the American people,” reports the nonprofit, nonpartisan watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW). We talk with CREW president Donald Sherman and investigative journalist Andrea Bernstein about the many ways corruption appears to be occurring in the second Trump Administration. Guests: Andrea Bernstein, Peabody and duPont-Columbia award-winning investigative journalist; author, “American Oligarchs: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power"; co-host of four podcasts, including “Trump, Inc.” Donald K.

Send a textJoin Professor Jeffrey Sachs for a compelling conversation on Martyrs to the Unspeakable: The Assassinations of JFK, Malcolm, Martin, and RFK by James W. Douglass. In this sweeping work, Douglass reexamines the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy, arguing that these four leaders were killed not by isolated actors, but within a deeper context of national security power and Cold War politics.Drawing on extensive documentary evidence, witness testimony, and declassified records, Douglass challenges the official lone-gunman narratives and situates each assassination within a broader struggle between movements for peace and justice and entrenched systems of violence. At the heart of the book is the concept of the “Unspeakable,” a term Douglass uses to describe the hidden structures of power capable of silencing transformative leadership.Together, they explore how each of these figures, in different ways, broke with prevailing orthodoxies, opposing nuclear brinkmanship, militarism, racism, and war, and how their evolving commitments to peace may have placed them in direct conflict with powerful institutions. This episode invites listeners into a profound reconsideration of one of the most turbulent eras in American history. It is a story of conscience and consequence and of how the unresolved traumas of the 1960s continue to echo in political life today.Footnotes:Books by James W.

After the US and Israel attacked Iran, Tehran's strategy of asymmetric warfare is clear: it closed the Strait of Hormuz and is attacking energy infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, causing global oil and natural gas prices to skyrocket, crashing stock markets, fueling inflation, and provoking an economic crisis that will hurt the USA and its allies. The conflict has also become a battle of attrition. Iran is using cheap missiles and drones to deplete the defense interceptors of neighboring countries, which will be very difficult to replace, due to deindustrialization, despite Trump administration efforts to boost production.

Hello to you listening in Brisbane, Australia! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. It's wretched madness, stupidity, corruption, and greed! Yes, this is the time we're living in. While chances are it could get worse, I can also say that it is impermanent. When does it end? How does it end? No clue. But then again I don't know how electricity works. I can't see it until it flares in a lightbulb. Maybe electricity is like faith: “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” What I have seen is the growing momentum of good trouble. Will it continue? Count on it. I've lived long enough to believe that We the People have the momentum to crush the madness. What this growing momentum is made of, how it will manifest, or where it will come from is yet to be seen.     Meanwhile, “When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” [~ Harriet Beecher Stowe] Guaranteed!

LEAVE IT ALONE!!!!The Kingdom of God is seasonal, and runs in rhythms of sewing and reaping. Jesus spells this out clearly in the parable taught in Matthew 13:24-30. The enemy is sneaky, planting seeds of offense, doubt, bitterness, division, distraction, and so on. One of the most challenging things to do as a disciple of Christ is to wait! Learning to be still in faith is a process, one that we MUST learn if we are to walk in victory. Jesus' parable teaches us:Good seed does not exempt us from bad things.The enemy always marks places of potential.Corruption is not the same as destruction.Understand the wisdom of waiting.Remember, the seeds grow in to weeds. And those weeds can seem intolerable. However, they only pop up when the harvest is near. Center yourself in the joy of the Lord, get quiet before Him and rest in the peace of His season. Run your race with patient endurance!!!

Trump launched a war with Iran because Israel wanted him to. Republicans won't even call it a war. Trump keeps calling it a war. An Iranian girls' elementary school was massacred during the opening U.S. strike. Oil prices are spiking. And for the first time in polling history, more Americans sympathize with Palestinians than Israelis. This is the dumbest war in US history.Meanwhile: The House Oversight Committee just subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi over the disappearing Epstein files. Kristi Noem gets fired from Homeland Security for the most Trumpian reason imaginable. And the chaos continues.**THE IRAN WAR**The United States attacked Iran not because Iran posed a threat to America, but because Israel wanted us to. Secretary of State Marco Rubio essentially admitted this, framing the strikes as necessary to prevent Israel from attacking Iran alone claiming the U.S. would be hit in retaliation. We launched military strikes on a sovereign nation because we agree with Israel's shortsighted and brutal logic. Republicans are performing gymnastics to avoid calling this a "war" — except Trump, who keeps saying it out loud, forcing GOP leadership to walk it back.The consequences: An Iranian elementary school was hit in what medics call a "double-tap strike" — first strike hits the building, second strike targets first responders. Young girls were killed. Oil prices are spiking, and public opinion has shifted: for the first time ever, more Americans sympathize with Palestinians than Israelis.**EPSTEIN FILES SUBPOENA**House Oversight, led by Nancy Mace, subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi demanding answers about disappearing Epstein files. FBI interviews with Trump accusers? Scrubbed. Bill Clinton and Hillary's closed-door testimonies? Suddenly made public. The DOJ is unraveling at break neck speed to cover for Donald Trump. Will Bondi comply or defy Congress?**KRISTI NOEM GETTING FIRED**Kristi Noem was fired as Homeland Security Secretary — not for incompetence, but because Trump perceived disloyalty. She shot her dog to prove toughness. She debased herself publicly. Still not loyal enough. With Trump, it's always about ego.**ALSO THIS WEEK:**Texas primaries showed a new voter suppression tactic — polling place closures in Democratic areas, weaponized ID requirements, hours-long lines.A Montana GOP senator broke a Marine veteran's hand while he was protesting during a Senate hearing.DOJ shelved the Biden autopen probe when politically convenient because they completely lacked any evidence, same as it ever was.Trump admin debating letting Tencent keep gaming stakes — the same "national security" argument used for TikTok. A truly terrible precedent if allowed to stand.Steve Daines manipulated filing deadlines in Montana to make it harder for Democratic challengers.From the dumbest war in US history to Epstein cover-ups to cabinet chaos to voter suppression — the dysfunction is accelerating.We break it all down.#Iran #Trump #KristinoemLook Forward is a weekly progressive political podcast covering U.S. politics, government policy, Democratic strategy, elections, voting rights, Supreme Court rulings, and political news.

A late-night stop at a Dairy Queen led to one of the biggest stories of Dale Cardwell’s career. In this episode of "Zone 7," Sheryl McCollum talks with Dale about the investigation that uncovered corruption inside the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office, exposed deputies working on the clock for Sidney Dorsey, and helped fuel a political shakeup that ended in the murder of Sheriff-elect Derwin Brown.

Guest Bio: Dale Cardwell is a six-time Emmy Award-winning journalist, consumer investigator, and founder of TrustDALE.

A serial predator drugs women, keeps a list of victims, and somehow keeps slipping through the cracks — while the people meant to stop him sure do appear to keep looking the other way. This week, we follow one relentless prosecutor as she pulls at a thread that unravels disturbing alleged corruption, institutional failure, and a justice system that seems more interested in protecting itself than protecting victims.
