The 60 Minutes Propaganda Machine. No Pressers Since May. with Dan Lamothe The Pentagon has gone dark. No press conferences since May. No real embeds in an active shooting conflict. Four-star generals pushed into retirement with a short phone call and no explanation. An Army Secretary out. Polygraphs on the table. And a 60 Minutes segment that played less like accountability journalism and more like a Hegseth highlight reel. Washington Post national security reporter Dan Lamothe returns for his 11th appearance to walk Paul through what it actually looks like to cover Pete Hegseth's Pentagon in 2026 — and why the propaganda machine is only getting louder. Paul and Dan get into the purge of senior officers around Dan Driscoll, the JD Vance-Driscoll axis and what it means for 2028, the paid "military influencers" quietly on the Pentagon payroll while attacking reporters online, and General Dan Cain's growing credibility problem after Trump falsely placed him in the room at a partisan event. They also dig into the story nobody in the building wants to touch: what is the Pentagon actually doing about AI, and does anyone in leadership grasp the threat the way earlier generations grasped nukes? This is the kind of no-BS, intelligence-grade conversation you won't get in a five-minute cable hit. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.

In his first year atop the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth rebranded himself as a secretary of war, not defense. And the changes didn't stop there. Under his leadership, the department has announced that all “warfighters” 30 and older will be tested for testosterone deficiency, and that they would be judged on their appearance and grooming. But possibly the most profound change has been a shake-up in the highest ranks of the armed forces. Top officers—especially in the Army—have been stymied, pushed out or fired. Michael Gordon and Lara Seligman join host Alex Ossola to discuss Hegseth's approach, as well as the possible consequences of fast turnover in the highest echelons of the world's most powerful military.

Send us Fan MailAaron and Peaches are back in the team room talking through the rumors around Pete Hegseth, the future of the Secretary of Defense/Secretary of War role, and what all this political turbulence actually means for people thinking about joining the military.This is not a “pick your team and scream online” episode. The point is bigger than one administration, one secretary, or one headline. If you serve long enough, administrations change. Secretaries change. Policies change. Generals get fired, retire, or quietly disappear into the defense-industrial mist. If your entire decision to serve is based on liking or disliking the current political lineup, you are thinking too small.Aaron lays out the Hegseth ledger: if you stripped the name off and only looked at the policies and outputs, there are real wins. But the job is not cable news. The job is not dunking on people online. The job is leading a massive organization, communicating clearly, and not turning every press moment into a viral clip.Peaches and Aaron also get into the tension between cleaning house and creating chaos. Maybe some fired leaders needed to go. Maybe some people speaking out have legitimate concerns. Maybe both can be true. That is the uncomfortable part nobody online wants to hold in their head at the same time.Then the episode detours into GWOT lessons, senior leaders finally pushing back, Afghanistan moral insanity, General Mattis, Dan Driscoll, Tom Tillis, midterm timing, and why big changes usually happen when the public is distracted by football, holidays, and food comas.Also included: Canada slander, Fox News habits, workout optics, fake-weight internet detectives, dog-and-pony shows, General Welsh in Djibouti, BG almost getting Aaron with shenanigans, and the eternal truth that if you want to join, stop waiting for perfect politics and go serve.Links:OnesReady.comOperatorTrainingSummit.comChapters:00:00 - Ones Ready Intro01:04 - ATACLETE and Partner Discounts02:10 - Modern Athlete Strength Systems03:15 - Aaron and Peaches in the Team Room03:42 - Why We're Talking About SecDef Rumors04:16 - Trump One, Biden, and Trump Two Context05:05 - Hegseth Rumors Start Flying06:30 - Looking at the Hegseth Ledger07:15 - Policy Wins vs. Optics Problems08:32 - Do Not Base Service on Politics09:15 - Dan Driscoll and Generational Damage Claims10:04 - Fired Generals and Competing Narratives11:31 - When Multiple Leaders Point at the Same Problem12:31 - Did GWOT Teach Senior Leaders to Push Back?13:57 - Iraq, Afghanistan, and Failed Culture Exporting15:05 - Afghanistan Moral Reality Check17:05 - Charles Martland and the Cost of Doing Right18:29 - Back to the Hegseth Question19:36 - Mattis, Letters, Books, and Public Exits20:25 - Why Driscoll's Opinion Carries Weight21:17 - Midterms and Political Timing22:24 - When Would a Replacement Actually Happen?22:48 - The Job Is Not Internet Sparring23:36 - Canada, Foreign Affairs, and Staying in Your Lane24:30 - Negative Transfer From Cable News25:35 - Funny Does Not Mean Useful26:25 - Can Hegseth Course Correct?26:45 - What Better Messaging Could Look Like27:38 - Workout Videos and Bad Optics28:03 - The Pull-Up Clip Context29:04 - How to Become a Legend With the Troops30:08 - Matt Lohmeier Gets It Right30:57 - Stop Making Dog-and-Pony Shows31:26 - General Welsh in Djibouti33:00 - BG Almost Got Aaron34:00 - What Happens After Midterms?34:34 - OTS and Ones Ready Wrap-Up35:06 - Special Warfare Selection OutroSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page: HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit: OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYDFND Apparel...
A Republican strategist just put a clock on the Secretary of Defense.This week Army Secretary Dan Driscoll — JD Vance's closest ally in the administration, the man Trump sent to Kyiv to negotiate an end to the Ukraine war — resigned after months of losing fights with Pete Hegseth over Hegseth firing Army generals. Republican consultant Matt Wylie's read: "I don't even think he makes it out of the next two months."Then it gets stranger. Trump calls data centers the "Golden Goose" while every Republican on a ballot runs the other way. The Pentagon takes a 35% stake in Venezuelan oil through an office whose own spokesman says it has no legal authority to take equity stakes — which leads Wylie to call Trump "America's first socialist president." A Postal Service whistleblower says the new federal ballot system can throw out an entire batch. And an AI company shows Congress a $500-a-month surveillance tool that builds an instant dossier on any American.Plus: The Battlefield hits its first-ever dead-even verdict, dark money in Maine reaches $80 per voter, and a MAGA influencer who demanded mass deportations gets deported.Matt Robison and Matt Wylie.

C dans l'air du 5 septembre 2026 - Traîtres, démissions : l'US Army fragilisée par Trump et Hegseth La crise s'installe au sommet de l'armée américaine. La démission du secrétaire à l'Armée Dan Driscoll, après plusieurs départs ou évictions de hauts responsables militaires, ravive les tensions autour de Pete Hegseth, le ministre de la Défense. Au total, au moins une vingtaine de responsables militaires ou civils de haut niveau ont quitté leurs fonctions depuis son arrivée au Pentagone. Des critiques dénoncent sa gestion et une reprise en main très politique de l'institution. Récemment, celui-ci a aussi choqué en se moquant du physique d'une militaire canadienne en surpoids.Pendant ce temps, en Iran, la guerre semble s'installer dans un statu quo coûteux pour Washington. Après plusieurs mois de frappes, les États-Unis n'ont pas obtenu la reddition de Téhéran et les hostilités ont repris après une pause d'un mois. Donald Trump minimise pourtant le conflit, qu'il qualifie de « small potatoes », alors que les États-Unis ont déjà perdu 18 militaires et dépensé plus de 37 milliards de dollars. La Russie, elle, maintient ses contacts avec Téhéran tout en profitant de l'affaiblissement américain : Moscou affirme ne pas faire pression sur l'Iran pour négocier. Alors, jusqu'où peut aller la contestation au sein de l'armée américaine ? Donald Trump peut-il sortir de sa guerre en Iran sans donner l'impression d'avoir échoué ?Nos experts :- Philippe GÉLIE - Directeur adjoint de la rédaction du Figaro- Nicole BACHARAN - Historienne et politologue, spécialiste des États-Unis, éditorialiste à Ouest France- Grégory PHILIPPS - Directeur adjoint de la rédaction de LCI, en charge du pôle international- Anthony BELLANGER - Éditorialiste à Franceinfo TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- Élisabeth PIERSON - Journaliste correspondante à Kiev pour Le FigaroPRESENTATION : Caroline Roux - Aurélie Casse - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40.PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe ThiéfineRÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît LemoinePRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal ProductionsRetrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux :INTERNET : francetv.frFACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslairINSTAGRAM :https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

Adam Telle, the Army's assistant secretary for civil works, will serve as acting Army secretary. President Donald Trump announced the pick on social media Thursday, calling Telle a "great patriot who is respected by all." Telle took the job overseeing the Army Corps of Engineers in August 2025 after serving as a longtime Senate staffer. He also worked in the White House's legislative office during Trump's first term. Telle has not served in the military. He replaces Dan Driscoll, who resigned this week amid clashes with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss how a narrow Supreme Court majority used aesthetic standing to greenlight Trump's ballroom construction, why bond yields are rising around the world and how that impacts everyone with guest Jason Furman, and how the extradition showdown between Texas and Minnesota over an ICE officer involved in a shooting betrays fraying relations among the states.Here are this week's chatters: Emily: Does Cutting Flower Stems Underwater Really Help?; Rachel Feltman for The Washington Post: How to keep fresh cut flowers from dying (with science) John: Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky; Line of Duty on Rotten Tomatoes; The Economist: What Democrats—and Republicans—can learn from Raphael Warnock; Lia Picard for Huffpost: The Hidden Health Benefits Of Eating Leftovers For Breakfast David: Simon Ducroquet and John Ismay for The New York Times: The Logistics Nightmare Facing U.S. Warships; The Last Ship on Netflix Listener chatter from Daniela Koontz in Houston, Texas: Anthropeum For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss Army secretary Dan Driscoll's resignation as the latest high-level Army official to run afoul of Pete Hegseth, whether Hegseth is capable of leading the military through a moment of real strain, and the increasing leaks from inside the Pentagon. In the latest Gabfest Reads, David Plotz talks with John Lanchester about his new novel, Look What You Made Me Do, a darkly funny psychological thriller about two couples in modern-day London whose lives collide in a story of infidelity, obsession, and revenge.

Dan Driscoll resigned from the military rather than continue working under Pete Hegseth's egomaniacal incompetence. With just 63 days until the midterms, Steve Schmidt explains why this is America's last chance to rein in Donald Trump's fascist regime and its despoiling of the Constitution.

The National Security Hour with Jack Maxey – The resignation of Dan Driscoll is not some minor personnel story. It is a warning flare. A senior official who questioned the rush into conflict with Iran, who pushed for streamlining the Army and giving soldiers the right to repair what they use, was pushed aside. That tells you plenty about who holds power and who gets punished for telling the...

Vance's controversial speech to an Israel lobby group, whether the Iran War is becoming a Forever War, and Israel's sponsoring ads on the podcast of Sen. Ted Cruz. Recorded September 2, 2026.

De oorlog tussen de Verenigde Staten en Iran is deze week weer volledig opgelaaid. Amerika viel een eiland in de Straat van Hormuz aan waar raketlanceerinstallaties zouden staan. Iran reageerde met aanvallen op een basis in Jordanië, waarna beide landen over en weer zijn blijven schieten. Maar niet alleen in de Straat van Hormuz rommelt het, ook in het Pentagon, wat Trump het ministerie van Oorlog noemt. De minister van landmacht, Dan Driscoll, stapte op na maandenlange ruzie met de hoogste baas van het Pentagon, minister Pete Hegseth. De oorlog duurt nu al een halfjaar en dat voelen Amerikanen steeds meer in de portemonnee. Los van dure boodschappen en benzine, heeft de oorlog elk Amerikaans gezin tot nu toe, door belastingen en hogere prijzen, gemiddeld 1200 dollar gekost. Hier kun je live zien hoeveel de oorlog tot nu toe kost, En het eind van de oorlog is nog niet in zicht.

Julia Ioffe joins Peter to illuminate the stunning resignation of Dan Driscoll, the Army's top civilian leader: his friendship with JD Vance, media rivalry with Pete Hegseth, his push to modernize the military and inevitable clash with Boeing, Lockheed, and Raytheon. Then they turn to Hegseth's political decapitation of DoD leadership and Driscoll's final, Hail Mary attempt to alert Trump to the true extent of the chaos inside the Pentagon.
What does the Army secretary's resignation mean for the war in Iran and the Trump agenda? Meanwhile, House Democrats vow to punish two members who helped pass GOP bills.

Today's Headlines: The US launched strikes in the Strait of Hormuz for the second day in a row without saying what they were targeting, two more oil tankers got attacked, and JD Vance's Yale buddy Dan Driscoll quit as Army Secretary after Hegseth got paranoid about their friendship and blocked Driscoll's plans to modernize the Army for drone warfare — so the guy who wanted to prepare for the future of war got pushed out by the guy who built himself a salon at the Pentagon. On the financial beat, Global bond markets are selling off, US interest rates just hit a 20-year high, and what that means for you personally is that your credit card, mortgage, and car loan just got more expensive — thanks in part to the Iran war, oil prices, and everyone powerful being addicted to borrowing money. In other disturbing news, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that Trump can keep building his ballroom-bunker, with Roberts writing in his dissent that it's probably illegal but the lawsuit didn't have standing. A USPS whistleblower came forward saying the Post Office defied court orders while building Trump's mail ballot system, the voter list portal states need to use doesn't exist yet, and tens of thousands of ballots could get rejected as a result — Democrats responded with a strongly worded letter to the Post Office, yep, the Post Office. In things we can no longer safely ingest news, Horizon Organic chocolate milk was recalled across Walmart, Target, and Whole Foods for early spoilage, which is annoying but at least it's not glass. And finally, Republicans invented a "midterm convention" in Dallas where a photo with Trump costs $88,000 and a photo with JD Vance costs $35,000.

IEDS DISCOVERED AT ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION IN GERMANY.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Middle East: Overnight, Iranian targeting of merchant shipping continued, with a total of 3-4x vessels being struck since the targeting in the Strait of Hormuz re-ignited over the weekend. At least two of these targeting efforts involved VLCC tankers being struck as they attempted to exit the gulf. The M/T SIDR and the M/T SENEGAL PROSPERITY were hit by unidentified munitions (one of these ships was hit three times), with the effect of the targeting being a halt of their transit through the Strait.This afternoon, the United States conducted larger-scale attacks on Iran, continuing the strikes that kicked off the fighting again over the weekend. The United States struck targets on Qeshm Island, Sirik Island, the port of Chabarhar, and several other targets along the Iranian coastline. After these strikes took place, Iran launched more missiles at American bases throughout the region (mostly in Jordan and Kuwait). As of this report over 20x Iranian ballistic missiles have been launched, with the launches continuing into the evening.Europe: Over the past few days, the war in Ukraine has become increasingly more serious, as Russian and Ukrainian attacks on each others' infrastructure have intensified. Over the past two days, large-scale waves of drone and missile attacks have been reported, with Russia and Ukraine focusing on targeting Kiev and St. Petersburg respectively. Several dozen smaller cities on both sides have also reported missile and drone impacts within the past 48 hours.Germany: This morning several explosive devices were discovered near a electrical substation at the Jänschwalde Power Plant southeast of Berlin. Several IEDs were discovered at this location by workers, though the exact number and composition of the devices has not yet been disclosed.Analyst Comment: Details of what actually happened at this substation are very hard to come by. Initial reports suggested that workers found IEDs at the site, but throughout the afternoon other reports emerged indicating that these were actually warheads from improvised mortars/rockets, which landed at the substation and failed to explode and/or had a different purpose altogether. Some reports from local sources in the community claim that rockets were found that contained "conductive material" which were fired over the top of electrical transmission lines at this location. This undescribed conductive material caused an electrical short on two transmission lines, which took out the power for a few hours. If these details are accurate, this would be a deliberate infrastructure attack, though the culprits could be anyone from climate groups, to foreign nationstates. More details are expected as the situation develops.Kyrgyzstan: As part of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian for a series of press conferences and brief talks. During the media events, President Putin directly stated that Russia is providing resources to Iran to help circumvent the effects of the American blockade on Iranian ports.Analyst Comment: While this is certainly no big secret, Putin saying this openly is a message to the United States, which is probably a tit-for-tat response to the global west arming Ukraine for years. Though it is largely forgotten, Iran actually does share a border with Russia, but it's not by land...it's via the Caspian Sea. Russian boats can easily transfer large amounts of cargo to Iranian ports on the northern coast of Iran, in addition to the large-scale railway projects in the northern districts, which serve as vital logistical lines to Russia and China.-HomeFront-Mississippi: Yesterday afternoon, a major fire was reported at an industrial facility in Laurel, which began after a truck caught fire near a paint locker at the Howard Industries facility which produces electrical transformers. The initial fire sparked a much larger blaze that consumed much of the main factory complex as well as the storage yard for large transformers.Analyst Comment: The U.S. imports about 80% of the electrical transformers needed to keep the electrical grid functioning, and as recently as May of this year, the industry was facing a dire shortage of transformers (a shortage which has been problematic for years). Howard Industries is a major domestic US producer of transformers, producing over 10 million transformers that are still in service around the nation. This company has a total of 14 different factories around the state, but even just one facility being offline (and the stored transformers being lost in the fire) will probably negatively impact the nationwide shortage of these critically-needed components.Washington D.C. - Last night Dan Driscoll, the Secretary of the Army, reportedly tendered his resignation to President Trump. Dave Fitzgerald, the Deputy Undersecretary of the Army is also expected to resign sometime this week.Analyst Comment: These resignations are extremely important, and very significant during a time of war. Normally, the resignation of the Secretary of the Army during an active conflict is something that is a major indicator of things not going well in upper management circles, however the terms of Driscoll's resignation also add more fuel to the fire. Allegedly, Driscoll resigned due to clashes with SECWAR Hegseth regarding the operational readiness of the Army. Officially, Driscoll's resignation has not been confirmed from official sources, and he himself has not commented on the reasons for his departure, so until he does, it could be for any number of reasons. However, the timing of the resignation the day after the war reignites (and indications are growing of shaping operations being prepared), is quite coincidental for this to be unrelated.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: It will take a few more days before the dust settles and proper assessments of battle damage can be conducted regarding the latest rounds of targeting both in the Middle East and in Ukraine. As it stands right now, the war in Ukraine remains very hot and very active, and the war in the Middle East has ebbed and flowed as the United States adopts more of a "mowing the lawn" approach to the conflict (or at least, that seems to be the motivation for the latest round of strikes).Separately, time is running out on the petroleum front, and the attempts to mitigate the energy crisis have not been as effective as hoped for. The American operation to shuttle tankers back-and-forth through the Strait, to play a grand shell game of shuttling oil from ship-to-ship once in the Gulf of Oman has had some positive impact. How much impact is hard to say, because how the data is being counted can be framed in many different ways to support various contradictory arguments, but right now (as per Kpler) the bottom-line figure for how much oil is exiting the Gulf via the Strait is 8.6 million bbl/day (or at least it was during the lull over the past month). Since Kpler did not factor in the Saudi East-West pipeline for this figure, we have to add that critical resource to the overall total. However Kpler also confirmed that as of July, these two pipelines that are supposedly rated for allowing around 7 million barrels per day to bypass the Strait...were only resulting in a total export of 1 million barrels, a fraction of what the ecosystem is rated for. The reason for this, is the bottleneck at the ports. Even loading oil onto ships as fast as humanly possible, they can only manage to get 1 million barrels out per day. It doesn't matter how fast the oil flows through a pipeline, if it cannot flow onto ships at the same rate, and right now, the oil terminals on the Saudi coastline are the weakest link in the chain. These bottlenecks, combined with the Houthi attacks on the Jazan refinery, have sharply reduced the main alternative method for bypassing the Strait with at least some petroleum product.Around the region more optimistic reports indicate that, all total, as much as half of the world's pre-war needs have been met by the efforts to get oil out of the Gulf region. Even with all of the tricks we've tried (and factoring in Omani-shuttle operations AND the Saudi bypass pipeline), we're only reaching "half of normal", at best.As this 8.6 million bbl/day figure is the absolute maximum theoretical figure (due to much of this oil being secretly transferred between ships as part of the shell game), there is variance in the data. Regardless of how it's counted, 8.6 million barrels is most assuredly welcome, but it's still nowhere near enough to prevent the civilization-level energy crisis that the entire planet is experiencing at present. Now that the tit-for-tat strikes have resumed over the past few days, this absolute-best-case-scenario figure of 9 million barrels per day is likely to be reduced quite a bit.Looking forward over the next few weeks, this crisis will probably be complicated even further by a decline in demand; most major prediction models project a decline in demand due to the petroleum shortage going on for so long now. Also, the American Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) will be running dry soon, to the point that tank-bottom will be approaching within a couple of weeks, if the current rates of release continue. Now that the war has resumed somewhat (and oil prices are spiking), solutions d

Sixty days. $25 billion. No open Strait of Hormuz, no enriched uranium recovered, no regime change, and gas prices up 42% since late February. That's the scoreboard on Iran, and it's the backdrop for Pete Hegseth's first real hearing — where combat veterans Seth Moulton and Pat Ryan finally put the Secretary of Defense through the wringer. Paul Rieckhoff joins the conversation to break down what oversight looks like when it actually shows up, why JD Vance and Dan Driscoll are watching, and why this war is metastasizing into something bigger than Iran. From Marco Rubio floating strikes on Cuba to Trump leaning on Putin as a peacemaker, this is forever war logic dressed up in new packaging — all gas, no brakes, no congressional authorization, and no plus-up for the VA to care for the next generation of veterans it'll create. Paul also unpacks the Comey indictment, the chilling effect on Jimmy Kimmel and the free press, and why the King of England sounded more like Reagan on alliances than the current administration.

Les journaux reviennent sur le rôle central que Marco Rubio, le secrétaire d'État américain, joue dans les négociations autour d'un possible accord de paix entre l'Ukraine et la Russie. Le New York Times note que la présentation du plan, vendredi 21 novembre, a été plus que maladroite, certains parlant même de « chaos ». Marco Rubio a d'abord minimisé le texte en le décrivant comme « une liste d'idées », alors que Donald Trump et son vice-président JD Vance l'approuvaient pleinement. Les contradictions se sont poursuivies : dimanche 23 novembre, Trump attaquait Kiev sur les réseaux sociaux pendant que Marco Rubio, lui, tentait de sauver le projet à Genève. Pour le New York Times, il a réussi au moins une chose : reprendre la main sur un plan dont l'issue reste très incertaine. La presse insiste aussi sur cette cacophonie, conséquence de la stratégie de Donald Trump qui contourne de plus en plus la diplomatie traditionnelle. Selon Politico, la coordination a été abandonnée au profit de négociateurs officieux — JD Vance et son allié Dan Driscoll notamment — avant que Rubio ne reprenne le dossier à Genève. Politico souligne toutefois une inconnue : le rôle que pourraient jouer dans ces discussions des figures proches de Trump comme Steve Witkoff ou Jared Kushner, décrits comme « assez indépendants ». En Europe, on doute d'ailleurs que toute l'équipe soit réellement alignée derrière Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio est également en première ligne sur un autre front : le bras de fer entre Washington et Caracas. Artisan de la ligne dure contre le Venezuela, il soutient une stratégie américaine qui pourrait, selon certains observateurs, aller jusqu'à des opérations ciblées au sol. Mais là encore, Donald Trump souffle le chaud et le froid : lundi 24 novembre, son administration a classé le nébuleux « cartel de los soles » comme organisation terroriste, avant que le site Axios ne révèle que le président serait prêt à discuter directement avec Nicolás Maduro. À écouter aussi :Venezuela : «le Cartel de los Soles n'existe pas» À Porto Rico, le renforcement de la présence militaire américaine réveille de très douloureux souvenirs El País rappelle que la petite île de Vieques a été un immense champ de tirs de la Navy pendant plus d'un demi-siècle, avec expulsions massives des habitants, bombardements et exposition à des substances toxiques dont les habitants subissent encore les conséquences.

Arrachée à ses soins, remise aux autorités migratoires et transférée en Haïti dans un état de grande faiblesse, elle est décédée le 21 novembre 2025.

Dan Driscoll made history earlier this year when, at 38, he was sworn in as the youngest Army secretary in U.S. history. And he just made news again this week when he became the highest-level Trump administration official to visit Kyiv for the White House's secret peace talks in effort to end Russia's war on Ukraine. Driscoll joined high-level talks with Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as news broke about a potential peace deal on the horizon. Driscoll is a veteran of the Iraq War, and as a result, has felt the effects of Pentagon decisions firsthand. He's set out to reshape the U.S. Army and the Pentagon into an agile institution that can make better use of existing resources and channel the best practices of the private sector. “When you are creating defensive and offensive solutions, you have to think even 10 years out when the war really gets to its most catastrophic moment, ‘What are the very basic tools of warfare that can't be impacted by the enemy,” Driscoll said. In this week's episode of The Conversation, Driscoll sits down with POLITICO's Dasha Burns to delve into the future of warfare, his plans for reinvigorating the Army's technology and the innovation spurred by conflict. “I think the best guess is if the United States entered a conflict with a peer in a couple of years, it would be a hybrid war where nearly every human being on the battlefield would be empowered and enabled with a digital tool,” Driscoll said. “I think we believe every infantryman in the United States Army will carry a drone with them into battle.” CNN "NewsNight" host Abby Phillip also joined Dasha to chat about her new book, “A Dream Deferred: Jesse Jackson and the Fight for Black Political Power,” Jackson's influence on today's political landscape and Phillip's approach to her own roundtable show.
Dan Driscoll made history earlier this year when, at 38, he was sworn in as the youngest Army secretary in U.S. history. And he just made news again this week when he became the highest-level Trump administration official to visit Kyiv for the White House's secret peace talks in effort to end Russia's war on Ukraine. Driscoll joined high-level talks with Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as news broke about a potential peace deal on the horizon.

The shutdown is over, but the problems that led to the crisis persist, and politicians are scrambling to find ways to make prices affordable for Americans. President Trump is testing ideas to help consumers, including potential tariff dividends and fifty year mortgages Those may be a tough sell, but Mr. Trump did move to roll back tariffs on some food imports not widely produced in the U.S. One price spike that can't be fixed by easing tariffs: health care premiums, especially for those covered under Obamacare. We hear from those offering solutions for that fix and more with two members of the House Problem Solvers Caucus, New York Democrat Tom Suozzi and Nebraska Republican Don Bacon, along with Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy and New Hampshire Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen. And, as we move into a new era of warfare, what does our military need for readiness? We talk with the Secretary of the Army, Dan Driscoll.

The fellas are reveling in the Democratic Party's absolute chaos, starting with the government shutdown. Anonymous Democratic senators confess they would vote to reopen the government but are "terrified of getting the guillotine" from the deranged grassroots—a direct admission that their base is driving the insanity. The Civil War's second front is a primary race for a chance to challenge Susan Collins in Maine, and it is a certified freak show. Chuck Schumer's establishment candidate, an ancient, unrelatable governor, is facing off against a Bernie bro who called himself an "Antifa super soldier." Maybe Graham Platner would get further in politics with less 1942 SS tattoos. Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the aggressive, transformational change happening at the Army. Driscoll doesn't hold back, detailing the utter waste of taxpayer money caused by decades of calcified bureaucracy, like how the Army pays double for chicken because of an absurd 1930s mandate. He explains how he and the Chief of Staff are cutting $48 billion in expected spending to prioritize the modern warfighter, focusing on next-generation technology, and why President Trump's “peace through strength” approach and air cover have been vital to these efforts. 00:00 - Government Shutdown Drama: "Guillotine" Fear06:06 - Shutdown as Virginia Strategy09:50 - Merkley's 15-Hour Yawn-Fest & Katherine Clark's "Leeeverage" Gaffe16:10 - Maine Senate Primary: Nazi Tattoos, Antifa Soldiers, and the Establishment's Pick44:48 - King of the Hill: George Conway vs. Sarah Longwell58:33 - Secretary of the Army Dan DriscollOur Sponsors:➢Tell Republicans in Congress stop Dick Durbin's takeover of your credit card before it's too late - https://electronicpaymentscoalition.org/➢Big tax-exempt hospitals abuse the 340B markup program, tell congress to fix 340B.https://phrma.org/340Bmarkup➢Find out the true power of America's oil and natural gas.

Send us a textIn this candid conversation, Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll joins Joe to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to modernize a military while staying grounded in soldier-level feedback. From wrestling with “irrationality and stupidity at scale” in the Pentagon to launching the Army Transformation Initiative, Driscoll shares why he's flipping tables—sometimes almost literally—to give soldiers the tools and trust they need to win the next fight. In this episode, they explore:How a 15-year “gap decade” in law, finance, and private equity enriched Driscoll's return to uniform and deepened his respect for everyday soldiersThe Army Transformation Initiative—delivering critical warfighting capabilities, optimizing force structure, and eliminating waste and obsolete programsA Fort Jackson drone drill where recruits with just five weeks in the Army changed training doctrine—proof that innovation starts at E-1Seasons vs. “work-life balance”: why high-tempo service demands conscious trade-offs at home, and how Driscoll keeps perspective as a husband and dad of twoThe IED-factory raid where rules forbade cutting a $2 padlock, and what it taught him about broken feedback loops in combatConcrete ways leaders at every level can accelerate change: send honest ground-truth up the chain, embrace small-unit credit-card innovation, and demand that processes serve soldiers firstWhether you're a private, a Pentagon staffer, or a curious civilian, this episode offers a front-row seat to the Army's most ambitious overhaul in decades—and a master class in leading large-scale change without losing sight of character, family, and the people who do the fighting.Daniel P.

Most people (including Africans) would love it if Africa no longer needed charity. If Africa was able to economically stand on its own two feet, charities could focus efforts elsewhere. The planet would be better off. Although parts of Africa are rich, most parts are still poor. The question is: how can we help lift Africans out of poverty? China and India lifted over one billion people out of poverty in the last 30 years. Africa has one billion poor. Most agree that charities are not a long-term solution to help build African wealth. The secret is to do what China and India have done. Africans must provide goods and services that the rest of the world (and other Africans) value. If they can't do that, they will always be mired in poverty. The Anou is working to build a long-term solution for one corner of Africa called Morocco. The Anou is an online marketplace optimized for illiterate Moroccans (and others). Ever since 2011, Dan Driscoll has been helping Moroccan artisans make a living. Dan explains how QR codes help illiterate artisans. He reveals the challenges of creating a vertically-aligned enterprise. Most important, Dan is working hard to make himself obsolete. As Dan wrote in an email to me, "The goal of Anou's work is to get artisans themselves to restructure how Morocco's artisan economy works so that it works for artisans, rather than against them. Artisans right now have an opportunity to change how everything here works, so whether it be a mill or sophisticated logistics, it all serves to enable artisans to consolidate power and influence to change things as they see fit. Getting artisans paid a little more is just collateral of solving more structural problems, which is why Anou, which is largely managed by artisans outside of me, is distinctly different than all the people who are here in Morocco trying to just help individual artisans with a little more cash." Fact Check: At the start of the episode, I refer to Cape Town's water rationing. I guesstimated that the South African city officials limited locals to 30 liters, but I was wrong. Each person was rationed 50 liters. Sponsored by Health Access Sumbawa This show was sponsored by Health Access Sumbawa.
