Graham Platner has suspended his Senate campaign following allegations of sexual assault that he continues to deny. Chris Cuomo argues that while Platner's campaign may be over, the political lesson is just beginning. From Donald Trump to Graham Platner to Mitch McConnell, Chris explains why both parties repeatedly make what he calls “deals with the devil”—embracing flawed leaders because they believe they can deliver power. He breaks down why Republicans tied themselves to Trump, why Democrats embraced Platner despite repeated warning signs, and why populist movements often lose themselves by elevating personalities over principles. Chris also examines Trump's attacks on NATO and Greenland, the ongoing Iran conflict, Dan Bongino and the Epstein controversy, Zohran Mamdani's rise, the affordability crisis, and why economic justice—not culture war politics—will determine America's political future.

Criminal Mischief: The Monkey's Paw Some stories entertain. Some stories linger. And a very rare few change the course of horror forever. This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn Ossorio narrates one of the most influential horror stories ever written: The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs. First published in 1902, The Monkey's Paw introduced generations of readers to one of literature's most terrifying ideas—that every wish comes with a price. What begins as a simple family gathering around the fireplace slowly transforms into an unforgettable meditation on fate, grief, and the dangerous temptation to change what should never be changed. Its influence stretches across more than a century of popular culture, inspiring countless novels, films, television episodes, and perhaps most famously, Stephen King's Pet Sematary. Join Carolyn as she brings this timeless Gothic classic to life in a dramatic reading that reminds us why some stories never grow old... because the fears they explore never disappear. Sometimes the greatest horror isn't receiving exactly what you wished for. It's realizing the cost after it's too late. Follow Criminal Mischief

Zephyr Teachout uses the question of organic integrity to explore a larger political problem: what happens when concentrated private power reshapes public rules while staying mostly within the law? Starting with the pressure on Real Organic to join forces with industrial organic against Bayer and Syngenta, she and Dave unpack corruption, anti-monopoly politics, regenerative agriculture, decentralization, and why any movement that gives up its leverage too early risks losing the very thing it set out to defend. https://realorganicproject.org/zephyr-teachout-organic-deal-with-devil The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince. The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations). To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit: https://www.realorganicproject.org/directory We believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Tensions rise as Donald Trump signals a hardline stance against Iran, promising decisive military action while questioning Tehran's willingness to negotiate. With nuclear concerns and past deception looming, uncertainty grows over whether diplomacy can succeed or if escalation becomes inevitable in this high-stakes geopolitical standoff...

Russel Anders is a first-time author who writes soulpunk, a sub-genre of cyberpunk that shifts the focus from technology to the human spirit's fight to remain human in dehumanizing systems. Daemones Ex Machina, his debut novel, looks specifically at agency and free will by introducing infernal bargains into a story about corporate warfare and sabotage. Corporate hierarchical structures tend to make employees into drones; the characters in this book suddenly find their choices matter more than they ever have, and they struggle with that responsibility.https://www.russellandersbooks.com/Sponsors:https://waterflyshop.com/mattnappohttps://nextbase.sjv.io/oq1e79https://propmoneyinc.pxf.io/c/3290446...https://vapeworld.evyy.net/c/3290446/...https://eycemolds.pxf.io/c/3290446/16...https://wineexpress.vneoga.net/yqG3E3https://www.dubby.gg/discount/minddog...

In a heated moment of anger, have you wished for help in a negative way? Kay in the US, asked ‘Can I accidentally make a deal with the devil with my thoughts?  In this episode, you will hear 4 ways people consciously or accidentally make deals with the Devil and how to undo a deal with the Devil if it happens. This question from Kay really got me thinking… in this world, intention is everything, and our thoughts are powerful energy that creates the first part of intention, leading to the outcome manifesting. Our thoughts can be positive, but if negative, they can get us into trouble big time if we are not careful and self aware.Send us a textTRANSCRIPT AVAILABLE: https://perfectlyparanormal.buzzsprout.com/2126749Click on the link above, choose your episode & click on transcript, enjoy :)LIKE THIS EPISODE?

The heist is in motion and there's no stopping it now. Though nothing says our heroes can't indulge in a little...temptation.

"If you win, I'll forget your brother's debt. He gets a clean slate and you're both free to leave. But if you lose, you stay here with me indefinitely."---Your brother Jude has always been trouble. The kind of trouble that comes with late-night phone calls, empty promises and debts he'll never be able to pay. And you've sworn that you're done bailing him out — how else will he ever learn?But after receiving a series of disturbing voicemails you find yourself rushing to Jude's rescue once again. This time though, it leads you straight into the hands of Elijah Hale. A man who's unlike any of the crooks you've dealt with in the past. And the worst part?You should be afraid. Because the way Elijah looks at you, the way his lips curl when he leans in, speaking in a voice that promises both danger and pleasure, makes fear the last thing on your mind. And stranger still, when the time comes he offers you an unlikely solution to save your brother. A game. A single gamble. If you win, you and Jude both walk free. If you lose? You stay – with him.No end date.No escape.And by the time the dice leave your fingers, you realize you never really had a choice. Because the Devil doesn't grant favors. He offers deals. And you just made one.---IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HEAR THE FULL SPICY VERSION OF THIS AUDIO, YOU CAN LISTEN HERE Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

History unfolds as Donald Trump prepares to address the Israeli parliament while receiving Israel's highest civilian honor — the Presidential Medal of Honor. But beneath the ceremony lies deep controversy. In this episode, we unpack the shocking details of a prisoner exchange that saw 2,000 convicted terrorists — including some of the most violent in modern history — released in exchange for 20 hostages. Is this a victory for peace or a dangerous lifeline for Hamas? We break down the facts the mainstream media won't touch, explore global security implications, and question what this deal means for Israel, the Middle East, and the world.

Trump's Gaza peace plan gets unexpected praise from MSNBC. Patrick Bet-David and the PBD Podcast crew react to the deal's first phase, Israel–Hamas negotiations, Obama's silence, and why Trump's diplomacy could reshape the Middle East and global perception of U.S. leadership.

On this episode of Wife of Crime I tell Russ about the CIA's secret mind-control program known as MK Ultra. In the 1960s, a CIA scientist named Frank Olson fell from a 10th-floor Manhattan hotel window. His family was told it was suicide. But that “official story” would turn out to be the first crack exposing a web of corruption, cover-ups, and shocking experiments performed on unsuspecting citizens. This case isn't just about one man's mysterious death, it's a reminder of how easily truth can be buried when powerful institutions control the narrative. Moral of this story... In the ‘60s it was LSD. Today it's algorithms. Either way, someone is always trying to influence how you think. Big Shout out to Myrtle for helping me research this heavy hitter!

For anyone who has seen Michael B. Jordan's excellent new movie Sinners, it's clear that any sort of deal with the devil - what has become known as the Faustian Bargain - is still very much alive. So relevant, in fact, that cultural historian Ed Simon has a book, just out in paperback, about its enduring relevance entitled Devil's Contract. From Shakespeare and Goethe to Thomas Mann and Donald Trump, Simon argues, the Faustian Bargain is more than just a literary trope. In fact, he suggests, it is as relevant today, in our social media age of the Mephistophelian Donald Trump as it was in the German Reformation of the equally populist Martin Luther. The Art of a Deal with the Devil. And we all know how it ends. Go and see Sinners. Spoiler warning: not without the spilling of a great deal of innocent blood. 1. The Faustian Bargain is Fundamentally About Irrationality Despite knowing the terrible consequences, Faust signs the contract anyway. As Simon explains, "if you know that the devil is real and that the Devil collects souls at the end of your life, then like you'd never sign on the dotted line. And yet these characters continually do." This captures our human tendency to act against our own best interests.2. The Contract Makes It Modern What distinguishes the Faust legend from earlier devil stories is the literal paperwork. Simon argues this bureaucratic element - signing on the dotted line - transforms it into a distinctly modern tale about legal systems, capitalism, and bureaucracy. It's not just about temptation; it's about documentation.3. AI is Our Latest Faustian Bargain Simon sees artificial intelligence as having "a shockingly obvious kind of Faustian gloss" - from the magic of conjuring something from nothing to the environmental destruction of massive server farms. We're trading our future for technological convenience, knowing the costs.4. Trump is Mephistopheles, Not Faust In Simon's reading, Trump isn't the one making the deal - he's the devil others make deals with. JD Vance becomes the perfect example: fully aware of what Trump is, yet "willing to seemingly abandon whatever principles he may have had in the past... for power alone."5. Sometimes Faust Wins (But Usually Doesn't) While Goethe's Faust finds redemption and salvation, most versions end badly. The American "Yankee Faust" tries to trick the devil but still gets his house burned down. The lesson? You might think you're clever enough to beat the devil, but the house always wins.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

She was just 16 when she willingly sold her soul to the devil, but when Clara Germana Cele tried to back out of the deal, it took two priests, 170 witnesses, and a harrowing two-day exorcism to save her from the demonic forces that made her levitate, speak in tongues, and transform into something inhuman.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: In 1986 there was a surge in the number of people entering the Himalayan mountains, and never leaving. Those who did escape reported hearing a loud ringing alarm, so loud they had to cover their ears and run, and even then suffered severe or complete hearing loss. They may not have known it at the time, but they had just come into contact with SCP-6789, also known as Siren Head. (Siren Head) *** The coldest of cold cases for law enforcement in Idaho is the disappearance of Lillian Richey – and it's also the most baffling, as Lillian disappeared from within her own home. (The Lillian Richey Vanishing) *** Many people consider Harry Price to be the first recognized ghost hunter in modern history. And he made a name for himself rather quickly. But then, if you are the first person to investigate the Borley Rectory, the most haunted building in England, you deserve to have your name remembered. (The Original Ghost Hunter: Harry Price) *** Grocery shopping is such a mundane activity that all families take part in it at some point, so it wasn't a big deal when 11 year old Michaela and her mom went grocery shopping, picking up dinner for their Sunday night. Little did they know, they had caught the eye of a psychopath.  (The Cheshire Murders) *** A family in Chicago was terrified when voices began emanating from the wall of their little girl's bedroom! And the story has an odd twist, in that somehow, unbeknownst to me, I, your Weird Darkness narrator, Darren Marlar, and up right smack dab in the middle of it! (The Wall Spoke) *** 
In 1906, Clara Germana Cele, an orphaned 16-year-old girl living in South Africa, had her life changed forever. According to members of the clergy at St. Michael's Mission in Natal, the girl, known as Germana, sold her soul to the devil, and he immediately possessed her body and began causing havoc.

European leaders are suddenly thrilled with a potential peace deal for Ukraine, but their enthusiasm has some wondering what's really going on. This episode dives into the details of the proposed security guarantee, which critics fear could involve American troops and ultimately serve to prolong the conflict. The host questions why European leaders who previously seemed committed to a long war are now so eager to praise the new plan, and examines the pushback from figures like Steve Bannon and Charlie Kirk. The discussion also touches on the potential motivations behind the deal, and what it could mean for the future of US involvement in the region.
