“Takes All Kinds”—An American Public Affairs Discussion and Demonstration of Journalistic Theatre Actor and playwright Dan Hoyle and his director, celebrated director/actor Aldo Billingslea, provide an inside look at the creation of their widely acclaimed new solo performance piece “Takes All Kinds.” Dan's blog reminds the viewer that ”I'll be disappearing into these different characters and stories and you'll be glad to journey there with me. They've been traveling with me these last couple years. I think they'll stay with you too.” With “Takes All Kinds,” Hoyle and Billingslea use journalistic theater and embodied storytelling to portray powerful, funny and complex people caught in the social and political currents roiling our society. They create portraits of everyday Americans through moving and funny true stories of American democracy: school board showdowns in Florida, grassroots organizers in Atlanta, barber shops in Las Vegas, deprogrammers of violent extremists in Missouri and more. In this mostly offstage oriented “talk-back” presentation, listeners and observers will have an opportunity to explore with Hoyle and Billingslea how thousands of hours go into a little over an hour show. The artists' view reveals (somewhat) the amazing mystery of live transformative theatrical narrative that has everyone laughing and pin-drop listening with the next moment. And always has the audience talking as they depart. Yes—it's about politics, but could experiencing public affairs embodied theatre journalism bring people something they needed more than they realized? “Stunning…something almost supernatural happens,” according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Currently based at the Marsh Theatre, “Takes All Kinds” has toured elsewhere in California plus New York City, Charleston and Chicago, and will be heading to Idaho, Florida and more in 2026. About the Speakers Oakland-based Dan Hoyle is an actor and writer whose immersion research theater work has been hailed as "riveting, funny and poignant" (The New York Times) and "hilarious, moving and very necessary" (Salon). His solo shows, all originated at The Marsh in San Francisco, have played across the country at The Public Theater, Culture Project, Baltimore Center Stage, Berkeley Rep, Cleveland Playhouse, Mosaic Theater Company, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Portland Center Stage, Playmakers Rep, Painted Bride, Pure Theater and abroad in India, Ireland, Wales, Mexico, Canada and Nigeria. Aldo Billingslea (director) is a professor of theater at Santa Clara University (SCU). SCU's associate provost for diversity and inclusion, and served as the vice president of the 100 Black Men of Silicon Valley; he's a board member of TheatreWorks Silicon Valley, theatre program director for The222.org in Healdsburg, California.As an academic, he is a professor of American theatre from the Black perspective, acting styles, Shakespeare, and seminars on August Wilson. Billingslea is a lifelong professional actor featured in more than two dozen Shakespeare plays, productions of August Wilson's Gem of the Ocean, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, and Fences, Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire, and Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sydney Bernstein's Window.

In this BigDeal rerun, Scott Galloway breaks down how the American Dream's playbook — degree, home, wealth — is broken. Housing costs have tripled relative to income. Two-thirds of young men aren't going to college. One in three men under 30 doesn't have a girlfriend. And the wealthiest generation in history is systematically extracting wealth from the youngest through tax policy, artificial scarcity, and a rigged economic structure most people never see. Scott Galloway has built and lost hundreds of millions. He's an NYU Stern professor, serial entrepreneur, and one of the most honest voices on what's actually happening in the economy and the future of young people. In this conversation, he breaks down the transfer of wealth from young to old, why loneliness and extremism are the biggest threats to society, and the formula for economic security that actually works. You'll learn why Social Security is the largest wealth transfer in history, how the tax code ballooned from 400 to 4,000 pages, why housing went from four years of salary to twelve, how elite institutions use rejection as a business model, why we're producing too few economically viable men, Scott's SCAF framework for fighting depression, and the four-part formula for financial security — plus why low-cost index funds beat 99% of hedge funds. If you're young, ambitious, or trying to win in a system that feels rigged, this episode will change how you see the game. Ready to turn your newsletter into a side hustle?

In late February 2026, dozens of survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse and their supporters gathered for a demonstration at the former Zorro Ranch, the sprawling New Mexico property once owned by Epstein, to demand action and transparency from authorities. The demonstrators, many identifying themselves as victims or allies of survivors, stood outside the ranch grounds and held signs and chants calling attention to alleged abuses that they say occurred there and urging state officials to pursue a thorough investigation into what happened on the property under Epstein's ownership. The protest underscored deep frustration with past investigations and a belief that justice has been delayed and incomplete.Security personnel, including armed private guards, were present at the site during the protest and monitored the gathering, reflecting the sensitive nature of the event and the high emotions involved. Participants emphasized that their presence was not just symbolic — many survivors spoke publicly about abuses they endured and stressed that the renewed state inquiry and “truth commission” into alleged activities at the ranch must lead to accountability, healing, and answers for victims. The demonstration came amid broader political and legal pressure in New Mexico for deeper review of Epstein's activities and for unsealed documents to be fully examined.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:'There were victims': Protesters at former Epstein ranch demand action | Local News | santafenewmexican.com

Unzählige persische Flaggen mit den alten Symbolen des Persischen Reiches – dem Löwen und der Sonne – waren heute auf der Theresienwiese in München zu sehen. Auch Rufe nach Schah Reza Pahlavi hörte man immer wieder. Versammelt hatten sich Iraner aus vielen europäischen Ländern, aber auch aus Dubai und der Türkei, um für ein Ende des Mullah-Regimes einzutreten. Und dafür, dass das iranische Volk seine Zukunft selbst wählen kann. „Heute ist ein sehr, sehr wichtiger Tag für uns Iraner. Kronprinz Reza Pahlavi hat aufgerufen, in drei Städten zu Tausenden und Abertausenden herauszugehen. Und wir sehen hier: Wir alle sind aus Europa zusammengekommen“, so Maria Shirafkan, eine der Protestteilnehmerinnen. „Es soll vor allem im Ausland ein Zeichen setzen, dass wir nicht zulassen, dass die Stimme der stimmlosen Iraner erlischt und verstummt. Das lassen wir nicht zu. Und genau deswegen sind wir hier.“ Für die Düsseldorferin mit iranischen Wurzeln ist die Revolution kurz davor, in die Endphase überzugehen. „Das hier ist keine Etappe mehr. Das ist das finale Ende. Denn so schwach war die islamische Regierung noch nie. Und so ein Massaker hat sie noch nie durchgezogen“, so Shirafkan. Sie geht davon aus, dass in den ersten beiden Tagen des Protestes, der am 8. Januar startete, durch die iranischen Sicherheitskräfte 90.000 Menschen getötet wurden. „Wir sind alle pro-westlich. Wir wollen im Iran ein säkulares System haben“, erklärte Ray Kandar. Er nimmt ebenfalls am Protest teil. Der Kölner Ingenieur wünscht sich von der Bundesregierung mehr Einsatz dafür, dass die Tage für das Mullah-Regime gezählt sind. „Und bitte, Herr Bundeskanzler Merz, bitte sprechen Sie mit unserem König Reza Pahlawi. Der ist der Einzige, der dem Iran ein wahres Referendum bringen kann.“ Shirafkan wünschte sich zudem, dass Deutschland als erstes Land iranische Diplomaten ausweist. „Das würde ein so großes Zeichen setzen. Es wäre vielleicht diplomatisch gar nicht so wichtig, aber für die Iraner wäre das ein großes Zeichen.“ Auch lebten viele Kinder von iranischen Regierungsvertretern in Deutschland. Deutsch-Iranerin forderte, dass diese ausreisen müssten. Im Vorfeld der Demonstration auf der Theresienwiese gab Kronprinz Reza Pahlavi, Sohn des letzten Schahs von Persien, am Rande der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz eine Pressekonferenz. Hinter dem Oppositionsführer, der seit 46 Jahren für den Fall des Mullah-Regimes kämpft, stehen Millionen Iraner im In- und Ausland. Pahlavi erklärte, er strebe weder nach Macht, noch nach Titeln. Sein einziges Ziel sei die Freiheit des iranischen Volkes. Für die Zeit nach dem Regime und den Übergang zu einer Demokratie hat er genaue Vorstellungen: Zentrale Prinzipien, die das zukünftige Iran prägen sollen, seien territoriale Integrität, individuelle Freiheiten, Gleichheit aller Bürger und die Trennung von Religion und Staat. Was Europa von einem starken, freien Iran hätte, fragte ihn die Epoch Times. „Wir haben jetzt die Möglichkeit, dass es aufgrund der Fortsetzung des Status quo zu einer noch stärkeren Migration nach Europa kommt. Europa ist bereits gesättigt und hat ein großes Problem, wenn es um Einwanderung geht“, so der in den USA lebende Pahlavi. Aber noch wichtiger sei die Möglichkeit für Europa, mithilfe des Irans seinen Energiebedarf zu decken. Zum Schluss seiner Rede bat Pahlavi, in Anspielung auf Kennedys „Ich bin ein Berliner“, nun in Solidarität mit dem iranischen Volk zu sagen: „Man-e Irani“ – „Ich bin ein Iraner“.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Cecily Marcus, Director of Collections for the Minnesota Historical Society in St. Paul, Minnesota. For the past few months, Minneapolis and St. Paul have been the target of the Trump Administration's Department of Homeland Security and what the federal government calls “Operation Metro Surge.” Two American citizens - Renee Good and Alex Pretti - were shot to death by federal agents in Minneapolis in January 2026. Demonstrations have been largely peaceful, but chaotic scenes of raids and riot suppression have been a fixture in the media for those who don't live there. CASCADE OF HISTORY reached out to the Minnesota Historical Society to get a sense of what it's been like to cope with the reality on the streets and in the communities of Minnesota, and to learn how they are responding – from an artifact and collections perspective – during this, to put it mildly, historically significant time. CASCADE OF HISTORY spoke with Cecily Marcus on Friday, February 13, 2026.

Auf der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz waren die Beziehungen zwischen den USA und Europa das Top-Thema. Die Hosts Anna Engelke und Stefan Niemann schildern in dieser Sonderfolge von Streitkräfte und Strategien ihre Eindrücke und analysieren die Reden. Am ersten Tag hatte Bundeskanzler Merz sich von der US-Politik unter Präsident Trump abgegrenzt und deutlich gemacht, dass es einen starken europäischen Pfeiler innerhalb der NATO braucht. Nach den harschen Aussagen von US-Vizepräsident Vance im vergangenen Jahr war vor allem die Rede des US-Außenministers Rubio mit Spannung erwartet worden. Dieser würdigte zwar die Geschichte des transatlantischen Bündnisses, sprach aber auch von Fehlern, die gemacht worden seien, und stellte sich klar hinter die Politik von US-Präsident Trump.Über die Rede von Rubio sprechen Tina Hassel und Kai Küstner mit der EU-Außenbeauftragten Kaja Kallas. Sie betont, man wolle weiterhin starke transatlantische Bindungen. Gleichzeitig verweist auch sie auf einen stärkeren europäischen Pfeiler in der NATO. Außerdem äußert sie sich im Interview zur Diskussion über die europäische atomare Abschreckung und den russischen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine: „Ich will nicht mehr Nuklearwaffen. Im Gegenteil, das könnte sonst eine sehr, sehr gefährliche Welt werden“, so Kallas im Interview. Den meisten Applaus bei der Sicherheitskonferenz hat Präsident Selenskyj bekommen, berichtet Anna. Er bat die westlichen Verbündeten einmal mehr eindringlich um raschere Waffenlieferungen und erinnerte daran, welchen Preis sein Land bisher für den Krieg bezahlt hat.Eine große Rolle spielte bei der Sicherheitskonferenz auch der Iran. Der Sohn des letzten Schahs von Persien, Reza Pahlavi, erklärte, er strebe im Fall eines erfolgreichen Regierungswechsels im Iran keine Führungsrolle an. Pahlavi nahm an einer Demonstration von mehr als 250.000 Exil-Iranern in München teil, die gegen das Mullah-Regime in Teheran protestierten.Lob und Kritik, alles bitte per Mail an streitkraefte@ndr.de Europas neues Selbstbewusstsein auf der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz https://www.tagesschau.de/ausland/europa/msc-kallas-eu-usa-102.html Analyse der Rede von US-Außenminister Rubio in München https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/innenpolitik/rubio-rede-sicherheitskonferenz-100.html Alle Folgen von “Streitkräfte und Strategien” https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/podcast2998.html Podcast-Tipp “Bosettis Woche” mit Florian Schroeder http://1.ard.de/extra-3-bosettis-Woche-schroeder-sus

The world is changing faster than ever, and sometimes it feels like the old playbooks just aren't working anymore. In this solo episode, I share 12 opportunities I see for creators in 2026—ideas that range from the practical to the philosophical, from the obvious to the genuinely weird. These aren't predictions. They're possibilities. And you don't need to pursue all of them. But keeping a running list of where opportunity exists can help you find the direction that feels most right for you. Some of these ideas might surprise you. Long-form writing making a comeback? In 2026? But I think there's real evidence for it. Others might feel more intuitive—like the continued importance of community, or the value of live learning as self-paced courses lose their luster. And then there are the weirder ones: effortful art, doing the unscalable, being a "good hang." The through-line? In a world racing toward automation and optimization, the most human things are becoming the most valuable.

From the MS Row Crop Short Course in Starkville last December, Justin Calhoun and Bill O'Neal of Bolivar County dive into the Soybean On-Farm Variety Demonstration Program led by Mississippi State University Extension and why it has become such a valuable decision-making tool for growers. They discuss how real-world, on-farm data complements university research, helping growers evaluate soybean varieties under conditions that closely match their own fields. From trial design to practical takeaways, this episode shows how local data, shared through Extension, turns research into actionable insight on the farm.

The best pool chemistry advice is the kind you can use on your next route. We sit down with Terry Arco to share how Bob Lowry's teachings are being refined into fast, field-ready training for residential service pros, plus a major update to the IPSA manuals that shaped a generation of technicians. If you've ever held chlorine at 3 ppm and still fought algae, or watched CYA granules sit on the floor in cold water, this walkthrough connects the dots between LSI, stabilizer, and free chlorine in a way that saves time and reduces callbacks.Terry explains how a six-hour class became a tight, high-impact course based on Lowry's 26-page Pool Chemistry for Service Pros. We unpack the three recurring challenges on most routes—water balance swings, misunderstood CYA behavior, and persistent algae despite “right” chlorine levels—and show how to solve them with clear targets and better testing. Expect actionable tips on managing LSI to avoid scale and corrosion, setting free chlorine relative to CYA and sunlight, and using aeration demos to see pH dynamics in real time.We also highlight HASA's stewardship of Bob's work, including updated IPSA training manuals and a Spanish edition in progress, while honoring the way Bob bridged lab smarts with backyard realities. From liquid pool conditioner to phone calls returned, his legacy is practical chemistry that respects the craft and the clock. The 2026 schedule brings these condensed courses to major shows and regional events nationwide, so you can level up without losing a day on the route.• Abridged course drawn from Pool Chemistry for Service Pros• Focus on LSI for scale and corrosion control• Practical CYA management tied to sunlight and chlorine strength• Rethinking fixed free chlorine targets to prevent algae• Demonstrations on aeration and pH behavior• HASA stewardship of Bob Lowry copyrights• IPSA manuals updated and Spanish versions in development• 2026 training at Western, Southwest, Florida, Arizona, and Fresno eventsSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

It's Friday, January 30th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian activists call for self-defense measures for Christians In the middle of the night, Islamic Fulani militias brutally killed seven Nigerian Christian men in a coordinated attack on a mining site in the Plateau State, reports International Christian Concern. The incident has reignited long-standing fears of targeted violence against Christian communities and intensified calls for lawful self-defense amid persistent insecurity. Military sources confirmed that the attack occurred at about 1 a.m. last Thursday when Islamic Fulani militias stormed the site, opening fire on miners who had remained overnight. At the graveside, grief gave way to anger, frustration, and an unmistakable sense of abandonment. Weeping relatives and neighbors spoke of fathers and sons lost — not in open combat, but while struggling to survive in an economy that has pushed many into mining at night which has been banned. Human rights advocate Alex Barbir said, “This is no longer just about illegal mining. It is about our people being hunted in the night, killed without mercy, and buried without justice. How long do we continue to die quietly?” He argued that communities must be empowered to defend themselves where the state has repeatedly failed to provide adequate security. Rev. Dachomo agreed, saying, “We preach peace, but peace must not mean surrender to slaughter. The right to life is sacred, and protecting that life is not a crime.” Anglican pastor protests confirmation of woke female Archbishop of Canterbury The formal confirmation of Sarah Mullally as the new Anglican archbishop of Canterbury was interrupted when a bold pastor publicly objected and was forcibly removed from the service, reports LifeSiteNews.com. On Wednesday, during the Confirmation of Election service for Sarah Mullally at St. Paul's Cathedral in London, Anglican pastor Paul Williamson stood up and shouted his objection after the officiant falsely declared that no opposition had been presented, leading to his restraint and removal from the cathedral by security personnel. Listen. OFFICIANT: “Endorsed on this mandate is a certificate which verifies that public notice was duly given as required and that no person has appeared in opposition to the confirmation.” WILLIAMSON: “I did!” (rest of audio undiscernible) Williamson claimed he was "nearly pushed down the stairs" outside by "four heavies" during his removal from the cathedral on Wednesday. Williamson's protest highlighted ongoing divisions over Mullally's appointment within the Anglican Communion, which has been fracturing for years over sexuality and gender. 1 Corinthians 14:24 says, “Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says.” On January 26, 2015, during the consecration service at York Minster for Libby Lane, who was to become the Church of England's first female bishop, Williamson was the lone dissenting voice when the gathered clergy were asked whether she should be ordained. And, in 2005, Williamson protested against the legality of the marriage of Charles, Prince of Wales to Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, reported The Guardian. Trump warns Iran 'time is running out' as US military builds up in Gulf President Donald Trump has warned Iran that "time is running out" to negotiate a deal on its nuclear program following the steady build-up of US military forces in the Gulf, reports the British Broadcasting Corporation. The US president said a "massive Armada" was "moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose" towards Iran, referring to a large US naval fleet. In response, Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, said the country's armed forces were ready "with their fingers on the trigger" to "immediately and powerfully respond" to any aggression by land or sea. Trump's latest warning follows his promise that Washington will intervene to help those involved in the brutal and unprecedented crackdown on protests in the country earlier this month. Demonstrations began after a sharp fall in the value of the Iranian currency, but swiftly evolved into a crisis of legitimacy for the country's clerical leadership of the Islamic regime. Apple cider vinegar was sprayed on Rep. Ilhan Omar A man accused of attacking Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, a Somali-American, during a town hall event on Tuesday reportedly sprayed apple cider vinegar on her, reports Fox News. Anthony James Kazmierczak, age 55, was seen on video lunging at Congresswoman Omar while spraying an unknown substance on her shirt out of a syringe. Right before the attack, Omar called for the resignation or impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, following two fatal shootings involving federal immigration enforcement agents in Minneapolis. Listen to the lead up to the attack. OMAR: “DHS Secretary Kristi Noem must resign or face impeachment.” (audio of attack) At the time of the attack, Kazmierczak said, “She's not resigning. You're splitting Minnesotans apart,” according to The Western Journal. Man paints over heretical billboard to read 'Jesus is God' A viral video shows a man painting over a heretical billboard campaign in California, altering the message to read, “The Bible says … Jesus is ___ God,” reports The Christian Post. The undated video shows an unidentified man atop a billboard platform with the Los Angeles skyline behind it as he paints over the word “Not” in the ad which had initially stated “Jesus is Not God”, transforming the billboard into a proclamation of faith. World's Last Chance, the group behind the billboard, claims the message is part of “four billboard themes that dare to shatter the chains of long-held misconceptions.” In addition to the Jesus billboard, which adds the text, “Jesus did not pre-exist in Heaven,” the group's website lists three others, including one that attacks Trinitarian theology and another promoting the so-called “flat earth” theory. In addition to the billboard campaign, the World's Last Chance website features several videos purportedly “debunking” the deity of Jesus and the Trinity. The billboard campaign has been reportedly spotted in California, Georgia, and other states. In a January 21st video, author and Living Waters founder and CEO Ray Comfort responded to the billboard remodeling job with a stark warning about the impact of false teaching in the public square. Listen. COMFORT: “These signs have been erected by a strange sect that claims to believe the Scriptures, yet openly denies the deity of Christ -- a contradiction the Bible doesn't permit. “Scripture plainly teaches that God was manifest in the flesh [1 Timothy 3:16] and that Jesus Christ is ‘the image of the invisible God' [Colossians 1:15] and ‘the express image of His person.' [Hebrews 1:3] Jesus Himself said, ‘I came down from Heaven,' [John 6:38] and ‘Before Abraham was, I am' [John 8:58], a direct claim to deity that His hearers understood clearly. “He is not merely a moral teacher or a created being, but the Creator Himself. ‘For all things were made through Him and without Him nothing was made that was made.' [John 1:3] The Bible warns that any teaching that denies the Son is not from God. ‘Who is a liar? He that denies that Jesus is the Christ, he is the Antichrist, who denies the Father and the Son.' [1 John 2:22]. This is the spirit of antichrist, which John says was already active in his day and continues now.” [1 John 4:2-3] Updated link to children's book on Martin Luther's wife And finally, yesterday, as we noted the 427th anniversary of the birthday of Martin Luther's wife, Katherine von Bora, I referenced a beautifully illustrated children's book entitled Katharine von Bora: The Morning Star of Wittenberg. Written by twins Jenna and Shanna Strackbein, I initially linked to Amazon if you wanted to purchase it. However, because they have not restocked the book, you can get a copy through Generations. Scott Brown, Director of Church and Family Life, wrote, “When I read it to my grandchildren, I choked up a few times encountering the beauty of marriage and the wonderful way Katy served the Lord in her generation. Now she was inspiring the rising generation of my own family. What a blessing!" Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, January 30th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

//The Wire//2300Z January 28, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: TENSIONS BUILD IN MIDDLE EAST AS AMERICAN CARRIER STRIKE GROUP ENTERS THE REGION. COUNTER-ICE MOVEMENT CONTINUES NATIONWIDE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Tensions are stirring up throughout the region once again as the Abraham Lincoln CSG arrives in theater. President Trump posted remarks on his Truth Social account this morning, threatening military strikes if IRGC leadership does not come to the negotiating table.Analyst Comment: Right now, there aren't too many indications of an imminent war, though kinetic strikes can always be carried out by long-range bombers, just like last time. The "armada" as referenced in President Trump's post is really just a standard Carrier Strike Group, with other support vessels already being in theater to plus-up the military posture. Various military exercises and show-of-force demonstrations are already underway throughout the Arabian Gulf, which also add to the increase pressure being placed on Iranian officials to seek a deal with the United States.-HomeFront-Minnesota: Protests and Demonstrations continue as before. Most demonstrations overnight were carried out by the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a Communist Revolutionary group linked to many other demonstrations. Separately, an incident was reported at the Urban League Twin Cities building in North Minneapolis, which involved Rep. Ilhan Omar being sprayed with an unknown substance by an assailant during a speech. The attacker was subdued immediately at the scene, and Rep. Omar continued her speech after the incident. The suspect was later identified as Anthony Kazmierczak, and the mystery substance in the syringe was tested to be apple cider vinegar.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Around the United States, a state of unease has slowly been growing over the past few weeks, with demonstrations transitioning into civil unrest more regularly, with hotspots beginning to take form in other areas than just Minneapolis. Just examining one of these hotspots as an example, assaults and fights at public events are common in Philadelphia as anti-ICE activists become more organized throughout the city.Throughout Philadelphia, the main groups in play are the New Sanctuary Movement of Philadelphia (NSM), which serves as a Command and Control (C2) cell for organizing demonstrations (such as the one today at city hall), in addition to providing anti-ICE training sessions at local churches and other religious institutions. Another group responsible for mobilization in south Philadelphia is the Juntos organization, which mostly handles strategic planning for anti-ICE efforts, to include running intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance networks throughout the city. There are a handful of other smaller cells and groups around the city as well, all with separate command structures and organization, but all united by the same general goal of resisting the enforcement of immigration law. All of these groups have been around for years, and none of this is unique to just one city...every city has had a dozen networks like this functioning for decades. However most of these organizations have seen a surge of membership and participation in the wake of the Minneapolis riots, and now that certain political developments are being worked on to de-escalate the situation in Minneapolis, groups in other cities are working to escalate the situation in their areas, using the lessons that have been learned so far in the Twin Cities.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2undergroundDisclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report.//END REPORT//
In the latest episode of The Rod Parsley Podcast, hosts Pastor Rod & Ashton Blaire send out a bold decree to believers who are ready to shift from silent fear to spoken faith. Rooted in the truth that God's demonstration follows our declaration, this episode challenges listeners to open their mouths and release the power of The Word over every mountain they face, daily. Because fear says never, but faith says now. If you're ready to speak the Word of the Lord boldly, live under His divine protection confidently, and watch mountains move in response to what you say and pray, this episode is for you!
Ernesto Araujo and Alejandro Pena Esclusa report on a spontaneous Rio rally supporting the Bolsonaro family. The demonstration reflects continued popular backing for the former Brazilian president despite legal challenges, indicating that conservative movements in Latin America retain significant grassroots energy and organizational capacity.
Iran has been shaken by protests on a scale not seen since its 1979 revolution. Demonstrations that began in the country's capital over the state of the economy have spread to multiple cities, with wider calls for political change.The government has called the demonstrations "riots" backed by the nation's enemies.Thousands have been killed.For some, the scenes bring back memories of the uprising that toppled the monarchy more than four decades ago. Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran's last monarch, has emerged as a figure that could challenge the existing order.This week on The Inquiry, we're asking ‘Is history repeating itself in Iran?'Contributors: Naghmeh Sohrabi, modern Middle East historian, director for research at the Crown Center for Middle East Studies at Brandeis University, United States Azadeh Kian, author of ‘Rethinking Gender, Ethnicity and Religion in Iran', emerita professor of sociology and gender studies at the University of Paris Cité, France Sara Bazoobandi, non-resident research fellow at the Institute for Security Policy of Kiel University, Germany Siavash Ardalan, BBC Persia senior reporter, United KingdomPresenter: Daniel Rosney Producer: Megan Lawton Technical producer: James Bradshaw Editor: Tom Bigwood Production Management: Phoebe Lomas and Liam Morrey(Photo: Car on fire on a street in Iran.

Gaius and Germanicus convene in winter Londinium to debate the American Emperor Trump's bold proposal to purchase Greenland from Denmark, framing this ambition not as mere resource acquisition but as a demonstration of imperial authority in the manner of ancient conquerors. Germanicus argues that NATO's opposition to the scheme reveals deep fractures within the alliance, fractures the Emperor exploits through tariffs and economic coercion to enforce obedience among vassal states. The strategic calculus centers on the "GIUK gap"—the naval chokepoint between Greenland, Iceland, and the United Kingdom—and the opening Arctic passages as polar ice recedes and Chineseambitions expand northward, circumstances they compare to World War II-era occupations designed to protect the Western Hemisphere from hostile powers. Germanicus posits that purchasing Greenland serves primarily as ritualistic display, for the Empire cannot presently risk actual war with major rivals like China or Russia, and must therefore project dominance through economic might and symbolic victories. The debaters conclude that while Denmark publicly resists, a face-saving "condominium arrangement" represents the most likely resolution, permitting the United States to maintain its status as dominant world power through the instruments of economic pressure and theatrical triumph rather than the spilling of legionary blood.1899 GREENLAND
