    March 11th, 2026: Coup Inside Iran? The IRGC Seizes Power In Tehran & France Deploys Warships To Middle East

    In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iran's leadership may survive the current war, but the balance of power inside Tehran could be shifting. We take a closer look at how the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may be using this moment to tighten its grip on the regime—potentially accelerating a long-running evolution toward an IRGC-dominated state. French President Emmanuel Macron orders a major naval deployment to the Middle East, sending ten warships to the region to reinforce France's presence and potentially escort commercial shipping through the increasingly tense Strait of Hormuz. China unexpectedly suspends its daily military flights near Taiwan, leaving the skies around the island strangely quiet and raising new questions about what Beijing may be planning next. In today's Back of the Brief — investigators uncover new evidence in the attempted bombing during a New York City protest, as the FBI searches a Pennsylvania storage unit tied to what authorities say was an ISIS-inspired plot.

    Incapable de redresser la barre d'un FC Nantes sérieusement menacé de relégation en Ligue 2 (17e à 9 journées de la fin de al saison), Ahmed Kantari a été limogé mardi par des Canaris qui espèrent boucler rapidement l'arrivée d'un grand ancien, Vahid Halilhodzic, pour le remplacer. Si le sort de Kantari semblait presque réglé après la défaite (1-0) contre Angers samedi, la huitième en dix journées de L1 sous ses ordres, l'identité de son successeur très probable a surpris. Âgé de 73 ans, ancien buteur du club dans les années 1980, Halilhodzic avait déjà fait un passage sur le banc Jaune et Vert lors de la saison 2018-2019, succédant alors au Portugais Miguel Cardoso début octobre après huit journées pour finir la saison. Depuis la fin de ses trois années à la tête du Maroc en 2022, Halilhodzic semblait couler une retraite paisible et méritée, rejetant plusieurs propositions, selon une source proche du technicien. Mais sollicité avec insistance par son club de cœur depuis dimanche, il a fini par céder et devrait arriver en soirée sur les bords de l'Erdre pour finaliser son contrat, selon la même source. Comme lors de la saison 2023-2024, où Jocelyn Gourvennec avait succédé à Pierre Aristouy avant d'être lui-même remplacé par Antoine Kombouaré à 8 journées de la fin, le FCN s'offre donc une nouvelle saison à trois entraîneurs...Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Die Nordwestdeutschen haben damit den Coup des deutschen Speedwaytransferwinters schlechthin gelandet: Blödorn, gerade 22, ist amtierender Junioren-Mannschaftsweltmeister – und fährt neben Cloppenburg auch noch für den polnischen Meister Apator Thorn, den gerade entthronten englischen Titelträger Belle Vue Aces, den deutschen Erstligaseriensieger Güstrow und Vargarna Norrköping in Schweden. Cloppenburg, Titelverteidiger in der Zweiten Bundesliga, hat am Samstag den Winterschlaf mit einem öffentlichen Trainings- und Medientag beendet, bei dem auch Blödorn auf der kurzen Bahn im Emstekerfeld unterwegs war. Was hat den Junioren-Mannschaftsweltmeister aus Schleswig-Holstein bewogen, nach Cloppenburg zu gehen?

    SummaryClayton Cuteri traces the full chain of events that led to the current U.S. war with Iran, starting with Britain's control of Iranian oil in 1901 through Operation Ajax in 1953, the hostage crisis, the Iran-Iraq war, Clinton-era sanctions, and the JCPOA nuclear deal that was working until Trump withdrew in 2018. Clayton lays out exactly how this single decision triggered Iran's nuclear escalation, Israel's Operation Rising Lion, the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei, and a war that has killed over 1,300 Iranians and 165 schoolgirls in a precision airstrike. Clayton exposes the real motivations behind the war: the petrodollar system and Iran's financial independence from the IMF and Western banking. He reveals the pattern connecting Iraq, Libya, Venezuela, and now Iran as countries targeted after abandoning the U.S. dollar for oil trade. The episode closes with a powerful spiritual framework connecting Israel's past-based thinking, Trump's future-based fear, and the only real solution: present-moment consciousness.BONUS: Clayton discusses some Indigo Education knowledge.Clayton's NewsletterJoin HereClayton's Social Media LinkTree | Instagram | X (Twitter) | YouTube | Rumble | FaceBookTimecodes 00:00 - Intro 01:53 - How Britain Stole Iran's Oil06:00 - The Original Sin: Operation Ajax11:00 - The Hostage Crisis and Reagan18:00 - The JCPOA Deal That Was Working24:00 - Operation Rising Lion and the War30:00 - 165 Schoolgirls Killed in a Precision Strike37:00 - The Petrodollar Pattern They Hide43:00 - Iran vs. the IMF and World Bank53:00 - The Spiritual Framework: Past, Future & PresentIntro/Outro Music Producer: Don Kin Instagram | Spotify Super grateful for this guy ^Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/traveling-to-consciousness-with-clayton-cuteri--6765271/support.Listen to the Podcast AD-FREE HERE for $4.95/monSign Up for my Newsletter HEREALL Indigo Education Podcasts HEREMy Book: The Secret Teachings of Jesus HEREOfficial Traveling to Consciousness Website HERE

    Armon Orlik schaffte 2025 den ganz grossen Wurf und wurde am Eidgenössischen Schwing- und Älplerfest zum Schwingerkönig gekrönt. Wird der Bündner nun auch noch Jasskönig? Einen Neuanfang wagt Schlagersängerin Patricia Mathys, die mit dem Jodlerklub Huttwil erstmals ein Lied in Mundart präsentiert. Armon Orlik stieg 2016 zum Spitzenschwinger auf, nachdem er am Eidgenössischen Schwing- und Älplerfest in Estavayer-le-Lac FR im Schlussgang stand. Die Zeit für den Königstitel jedoch war noch nicht reif. Auch ein Nackenschlag und eine daraus resultierende Körperlähmung konnten ihn nicht daran hindern, seinen grossen Traum weiterzuverfolgen. Nach dem Gewinn von 26 Kranzfesten und insgesamt 76 Kränzen schaffte er im August vergangenen Jahres endlich den ganz grossen Coup und wurde zum Schwingerkönig gekrönt, als Erster aus dem Kanton Graubünden. Nun stellt sich der sympathische Bündner Bauingenieur der Jasskonkurrenz im Romantikhotel Bären Dürrenroth und erzählt Gastgeberin Fabienne Gyr unter anderem, warum er auswärts immer einen Mixer dabeihat. Schlagersängerin Patricia Mathys feiert ihr 25-jähriges Bühnenjubiläum und wagt, gemäss dem Titel ihres neuen Albums einen «Neua(n)fang». So finden sich darauf zum ersten Mal auch Lieder auf Berndeutsch. Im «Samschtig-Jass» präsentiert die Emmentalerin zusammen mit dem Jodlerklub Huttwil den Mundarttitel «Gloub an Di».

    In dieser Auszeit begrüßt Recken-Moderator Andreas Wurm den 21-jährigen Kreisläufer Luis Rodriguez - ein echtes Eigengewächs und unsere Nummer 80. Luis steht exemplarisch für den Recken-Weg: aus der eigenen Schmiede in den Profikader, mit Spielpraxis in Hildesheim, Studium on top - und jede Menge Biss. Spannend: Unter dem neuen Coach Juan Carlos Pastor, dem „Handball-Professor“, profitiert Luis doppelt - fachlich am Kreis und sprachlich dank seiner dominikanischen Wurzeln. Wir sprechen über die aktuelle Lage zwischen HBL und European League: Auswärtskracher in Magdeburg, danach der HSV in der Reckenfestung und die bereits fixierte Viertelfinal-Quali in Europa. Luis gibt Einblicke in Pastors System, in lange Video-Sessions nach dem Göppingen-Spiel, in die Kabine - klar, kritisch, aber immer respektvoll. Themen sind außerdem: Rollenverteilung hinter Justus Fischer und Thomas Solstad, die hohe Belastung mit Training und Reisen, Verlängerungen von Jonathan Edvardsson und Joel Birlehm - und die kleinen Freuden wie legendäre Kabinenfeste. Highlights gefällig? Luis' klare Ziele („nicht nur dabei sein, sondern eine Rolle im Team“), sein Olympia-Traum, seine Liebe zu Heimspielen („Heimfans… das Beste, was man haben kann“) und sein Credo: lieber Extraeinheiten in der Halle als noch ein Video. Schaffen die Recken den Coup in Magdeburg? Und wie weit trägt der europäische Flow? Am besten direkt abonnieren, damit ihr keine Folge verpasst!

    Die USA und Israel haben sich entschieden den Iran anzugreifen und mit gezielten Bombardierungen das Regime zu schwächen. Ein erster Coup ist gelungen. Der Revolutionsführer Ali Chamenei ist tot. Das hat in Teilen der iranischen Bevölkerung und bei Exiliranern große Freude ausgelöst. Aber wie geschwächt die Mullahs nun dastehen, das ist völlig offen. Der Iran ist zu Gegenangriffen übergegangen und er blockiert die für den weltweiten Ölhandel so wichtige Straße von Hormus. Wie weit die Amerikaner gehen werden, ob das Atomprogramm des Iran damit endgültig gestoppt werden kann, ob es einen Regimewechsel geben wird und welche Auswirkungen dieser Krieg auf die Weltwirtschaft haben wird, kann noch niemand wissen.

    In this unforgettable episode of the Wise_N_Nerdy podcast, Joe is joined by the one and only Devocite for a dynamic, nerd-filled ride that perfectly blends fandom, fatherhood, and fun. With Charles out for the episode, Joe and Devocite hold down the mic and deliver a show packed with cult classic movies, Pokémon dad jokes, tech support tales, book talk, anime hype, and meaningful parenting conversation. As always, the episode kicks off with the Question of the Week: “What is your favorite cult classic movie?” What follows is a lively discussion featuring iconic films like Big Trouble in Little China, Full Metal Jacket, Shrek, and The Princess Bride. From over-the-top action to quotable fantasy adventures, Joe and Devocite celebrate the movies that defined late-night rewatches and built lifelong fandoms. Then it's time for the traditional roll of the dice — and fate delivers Pokémon-themed Bad Dad Jokes courtesy of Bob and Joe. The groans come fast, the puns come faster, and yes… they absolutely choose you. The dice roll again and summon the “Daddy, Tell Me A Story” segment, where Joe and Devocite swap tech support stories from the trenches. From baffling user errors to head-shaking troubleshooting moments, the stories are equal parts hilarious and painfully relatable for anyone who has ever worked in IT. Next up, the “How Do I…?” segment gives Devocite the spotlight as he explains how to get started with Meshtastic. Whether you're mesh-curious or deep into off-grid communication tech, this practical breakdown offers a helpful introduction for beginners looking to expand their nerd toolkit. The dice continue their magical work and guide the show into “What Are You Nerding Out About?” Devocite dives into his latest reads, having just finished Sandman Slim by Richard Kadrey and Mistborn: The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. Up next on his reading list? Dungeon Crawler Carl, inspired largely by Joe's enthusiastic recommendations on previous episodes. Meanwhile, Joe is back on his anime streak, this time nerding out about Jack-of-All-Trades, Party of None, continuing his ongoing exploration of hidden animated gems. Finally, the episode closes with a powerful “Parliament of Papas” discussion. Joe and Devocite reflect on a story about a mother who gets a creepy gut feeling about her daughter's friend's stepdad and ultimately decides not to allow a sleepover at their house. The hosts dive into the importance of parental intuition, trusting your gut, and prioritizing your children's safety — even when it feels awkward or uncomfortable. It's a thoughtful, grounded conversation that reminds listeners that being a nerd is great… but being a present, protective parent matters most. From cult classic movies and dad jokes to tech talk, fantasy novels, anime discoveries, and meaningful parenting discussions, this episode has something for everyone. It's another perfect reminder to embrace what you love, connect with your people, and always Find your FAMdom. Wise_N_Nerdy: Where Fatherhood Meets Fandom Learn more about your ad choices.

    In Chapter 46 of The Book of Trump, Ghost unpacks the events surrounding the 2014 Maidan uprising in Ukraine and its long-term geopolitical consequences. He traces the political tensions leading up to the protests, the role of Western NGOs and U.S. officials, and the removal of President Viktor Yanukovych. The episode examines leaked phone calls, diplomatic maneuvering, and the emergence of nationalist factions that would later shape Ukraine's political landscape. Ghost connects the Maidan events to NATO expansion, sanctions against Russia, and the subsequent conflict in eastern Ukraine, arguing that the coup narrative reframes the mainstream understanding of the crisis. He also analyzes how media coverage, intelligence operations, and foreign policy objectives intersected during this pivotal moment. Framing the Maidan uprising as a turning point in modern geopolitics, Ghost positions the chapter as essential context for understanding current tensions between Russia, Ukraine, and the West — and how those dynamics factor into the broader Trump-era foreign policy debate.

Why would hundreds of leaders — including a near 50/50 split of Democrats and Republicans — risk everything to engage with a known criminal predator? Dr. Drew and Mel K dig in to the new names, tribal behavior, selective outrage, and psychological explanations for why elites would became entangled in a global web of institutional corruption and abuse. Author Peter Schweizer joins to discuss “The Invisible Coup” exposing how mass migration and CCP financial spigots are being weaponized as psychological warfare to destabilize the American mind.

    In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I unpack why one founder's departure may mark a turning point in the AI Era. Highlights 00:03 — There's huge news today in the AI space. Peter Steinberger, founder of OpenClaw, has joined OpenAI. Now I'll start by giving you some background on OpenClaw and its significance in the industry, followed by my commentary on why this is such a shake-up. 00:56 — Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of OpenClaw is its capability to handle these [active computer use] tasks through just basic prompts. For instance, you can say, "Book me a flight from New York City to Austin, Texas, leaving Friday around 9 a.m," and it will go ahead and do it for you. 01:29 — [OpenAI CEO] Sam Altman mentioned that Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. This move by OpenAI will no doubt garner significant support from the open-source community, as well as see the recruitment of a talented individual who's already proven his worth in building a new class of AI products. 02:09 — The community even described OpenClaw as, and I quote, Claude with hands. It was a major driver of traffic for Anthropic, recommending Claude Opus 4.5 as its default model. Ultimately, Steinberger fell out of love with Anthropic, and as a result, the company may have missed out on one of the most important hires in the AI Era to date. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

    Newt talks with Peter Schweizer, about his #1 New York Times bestseller, "The Invisible Coup.” They discuss the concept of weaponized migration, where mass migration is used as a political tool against the United States, orchestrated by both domestic elites and foreign adversaries. Schweizer highlights historical instances like the Mariel boatlift of 1980 as a precursor to current strategies, where foreign governments, such as Cuba, used migration to infiltrate the U.S. with criminals and intelligence operatives. They also discuss the role of Mexico, with its extensive network of consulates in the U.S., which Schweizer claims are used to exert political influence and sovereignty within American borders. Schweizer also raises concerns about birthright citizenship and dual citizenship, particularly in the context of Chinese "birth tourism," where children born in the U.S. are raised abroad but retain American citizenship. He suggests that these practices pose a national security threat, as they create a generation of citizens whose loyalties may not align with the U.S. Their conversation concludes with Schweizer emphasizing the need for the U.S. to address these issues to protect its national security and cultural identity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    SEASON 4 EPISODE 58: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump has attempted another coup. You may have missed it. Trump and Jeanine Pirro with the acquiescence of the hapless Speaker of the House and Porn Monitor attempted another coup: Attempted to get Senators Mark Kelly and Elise Slotkin and four members of the House INDICTED for obstructing Trump’s dictatorship. Tried to convict, tried to jail, for imaginary crimes of disloyalty to him that Trump bleated are quote “punishable by death” six military veterans because they told other Americans to follow the law. For expressing fealty to the Constitution, for publicly reminding service members that THEIR allegiance is to the constitution and not some rapidly deteriorating psychopathic despot. And ordinary Americans in a Grand Jury stopped Trump’s attempt to overthrow the government of the United States. For. Now. Which means the lesson Trump and Pirro and Johnson and the other deputy despots will take away is: next time don’t bother with Grand Juries, just have ICE blast them in the head. What to do to STOP “next time”- what to do RIGHT NOW in the Senate Continuing Funding Resolution - what to do in state houses before the midterms. PLUS: Trump's either-or: either he Narc'd on Epstein or knew nothing about his crimes. Either way, Trump is now the CEO of the Epstein Cover-up. And maybe even more disturbing, he is actually, seriously, hallucinating. Full-on crazy talk. Not his normal delusions: this is A Chinese plot to destroy the National Hockey League. He thinks this is really happening. B-Block (37:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: He won Olympic Bronze but was disqualified in the game of life. The three weird sisters are still whining about Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl: Megyn Kelly, Sage Steele, Michele Tafoya - the latter of two using language that matches almost word-for-word what was said by racists and sexists who called the ESPN complaint voicemail line to try to get THEM fired. And then there's the Twitter Rando whose 'egg corn' is as delightful as any I can remember. He's complaining about solitaire confinement! C-Block (50:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: In the old days baseball spring training wasn't already unofficial underway as of... last week. It was limited and exciting and one of my joys was going to it and reporting from it. So it's time to try to recreate some of that, because naturally I still have the tape of my 1978 Spring Training reports from Florida! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
