The note's contents are brief and striking, referencing 16-year-old charges, a choice to say goodbye, and the phrase "no fun" underlined. Hawk compares the alleged suicide note to a second handwritten note also found in Epstein's cell, noting consistent handwriting, similar phrasing, and that same underlined phrase appearing in both. Also examined is a letter allegedly sent from Epstein to convicted sex offender Larry Nassar, which many on social media have pointed to as proof the suicide note is fake. Hawk compares available examples of Jeffrey Epstein's actual signature from legal documents to the signature on the Nassar letter and finds they do not match, leading him to conclude the Nassar letter is likely fraudulent. Nicholas Tartaglione, Epstein's cellmate, a former NYPD officer convicted of four murders for hire on behalf of a drug cartel, found the note after Epstein's death and gave it to his attorneys rather than prison officials. A judge then ordered it sealed in a courthouse safe, where it remained until last week. Hawk walks through the evidence carefully and shares his honest assessment of what the handwriting comparison reveals about the authenticity of the suicide note.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
Forty Colombian farmers sat looking at her, completely unimpressed, when the cartel boss in the back of the room opened a case and a drone flew up out of it. In this episode, I sit down with Attia Qureshi, the negotiation teacher who learned her craft running State Department conflict-resolution work in cartel-controlled coca regions of Colombia, and who now teaches at the University of Michigan after a stint at MIT Sloan. Her new book Never Settle, with a foreword by Sheila Heen and endorsements from Daniel Pink, Robert Cialdini, and Chris Voss, hits shelves next week. The thing I love about her work is that she does not treat negotiation as a boardroom sport. She treats it as a daily relationship skill, the kind you practice with your barista so it is already in your hands when something hard comes up at home. In This Episode The four-step sequence Attia used to reset a room of 40 unimpressed farmers and a cartel boss with a drone, and how the same four steps work in your kitchen tonight Why "take out the trash" is the position and not the actual ask, and the one-sentence reframe that changes how you fight about household chores The fifth-grade bullying story that produced the hard shell most of us are still wearing into adulthood The seven-word test that tells you whether you are influencing someone or manipulating them Why the freeze you feel when you try to speak up is physiology, not personality, and what to do about it in real time How to know when you are giving too much to a taker, and the experiment Attia recommends before you decide to cut losses The literal glass of lemonade that turned a hostile next-door neighbor into a friendly one, and the Cialdini-backed science underneath it Why This Matters This episode is for anyone who knows what they want and goes quiet when it is time to ask. For anyone stuck in a loop with a difficult coworker or in-law that has been the same loop for three years. For anyone who has tried the assertive thing once and the people-pleasing thing once and is exhausted by both, and who wants a path that does not require a personality transplant.

I break down the Savings & Loam Problem and the crushing logistics of handling 40 tons of $20 bills, the engineering of cash graveyards that swallow millions in vacuum-sealed bricks, and the relentless cognitive burden of mental ledgers that no spreadsheet can replace. This episode exposes why burial sites, trade-based laundering, and constant rotation are not options but necessities, drawing on decades of operational reality that no Hollywood script has ever captured. listeners seeking the raw economics of narco-finance will find an insider masterclass that reveals the hidden tax every cartel pays simply to keep its money alive.
In Part 2 of this exclusive Game of Crimes interview, 26-year DEA veteran Jeff Sweetin goes deeper — into the fake identities, the legendary pranks, the family sacrifices, and the parts of undercover work that no training manual ever prepares you for. From covert operations in Panama and Colombia to the quiet toll the job takes long after the mission ends, this is the conversation that happens when the debrief is over and the cameras finally get the truth.
Drug cartels have quietly infiltrated rural America. Trafficked host Mariana van Zeller walks us through the underworld hiding beneath our very feet.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1302What We Discuss with Mariana van Zeller:Mexican drug cartels are deliberately setting up operations in small-town America — not big cities — because rural areas have minimal law enforcement, making it easier to hide distribution networks where a single sheriff can't compete with heavily armed cartel operatives.Mariana van Zeller builds trust with dangerous sources — from cartel lieutenants to assassins — by ditching prepared question lists, sharing personal photos, and offering cigarettes, treating interviews as human conversations rather than interrogations to unlock genuine, unguarded responses.Commercial airlines like Delta are among the biggest drug transportation networks in the US, with cartel distributors exploiting everyday travel infrastructure rather than the covert smuggling operations most people imagine — meaning the drug trade hides in plain sight.The opioid-to-fentanyl-to-tranq-dope pipeline is a public health crisis, not a moral failing — most users started with a legitimate injury and a prescription, and the street drug xylazine now causes wounds resembling leprosy while hospitals stigmatize users instead of treating them.Mariana's approach to journalism offers a powerful reminder that curiosity and empathy — not judgment — are what unlock the deepest understanding of people and problems, a mindset anyone can practice to have more meaningful conversations and see the world with clearer eyes.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

This week Scott & Patrick are joined by Dylan from the Going Postal Podcast to discuss the book "Drug Cartels Do Not Exist" by Oswaldo Zavala. In this slim volume, Zavala makes the case that the violence often attributed to "Drug Cartels" can often be explained by state violence and the activities of intelligence enabled groups spreading mayhem across the north of Mexico and spilling into the United States.During the taping of this episode, US President Donald Trump announced & launched a new political coalition known as "The Shield of the Americas" with which "Narcoterrorism" and related threats will be addressed together in cooperation with various Central & South American governments, which will assuredly result in massive death and devastation for the entire continent.Don't forget to join our Telegram channel at T.me/historyhomos and to join our group chat at T.me/historyhomoschatFor programming updates and news follow us across social media @historyhomospod and follow Scott @Scottlizardabrams and Patrick @cantgetfooledagainradio OR subscribe to our telegram channel t.me/historyhomosThe video version of the show is available on Substack, Rokfin, bitchute, odysee and RumbleFor weekly premium episodes or to contribute to the show subscribe to our channel at www.historyhomospod.substack.comYou can donate to the show directly at paypal.me/historyhomosTo order a History Homos T shirt (and recieve a free sticker) please send your shirt size and address to Historyhomos@gmail.com and please address all questions, comments and concerns there as well.Later homos

Kate Adie introduces stories on Mexico's cartel war, President Trump's State of the Union address, the Russian soldiers escaping the front-line, and a slow boat journey in Benin.Mexico was rocked by a violent rampage this week, after the drug lord, El Mencho, died following a fire-fight between his bodyguards and Mexican military commandos. It's stark evidence of the challenges facing President Claudia Sheinbaum as she vows to take on the country's criminal gangs. Quentin Sommerville reports on the fallout following El Mencho's death and the disturbingly deadly rivalry between the cartels.'Our country is winning again,' was President Donald Trump's rallying cry at his State of the Union address this week in Washington DC, citing success in the jobs market and stopping illegal crossings at the southern border. But his sinking approval ratings suggest he's not necessarily convincing the public. Anthony Zurcher watched on in the House Chamber.The exact toll on Russian forces in Ukraine has been closely guarded by the Kremlin, but estimates suggest more than a million Russian troops have been killed or injured over the past four years. For those who refuse to fight the consequences can be severe. Ben Steele met Russian troops who have escaped the front-line, at great personal cost.The small West African nation of Benin is made up of around fifty different ethnic groups and languages. Most of the population is concentrated in the South - home to the country's main cities, such as the port of Cotonou. While Benin has only a handful of highways, its lush inter-connected lagoons provide a vital commercial artery.

Stability appears to have returned in Mexico after days of violence. On Sunday a Mexican military raid killed cartel boss Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, more commonly known as El Mencho. In response, members of his Jalisco New Generation Cartel created havoc throughout the nation - lighting cars and buildings on fire, ransacking businesses, and setting up blockades along major roadways throughout the country. According to authorities at least 62 people have died since Sunday - including cartel members, security officers, and civilians. Flights to and from Seatac to various airports in Mexico were cancelled, as the US government recommended that all US citizens and residents shelter in place. Guest: Vanessa Freije is an Associate Professor of International Studies, and she’s the chair of Latin American and Caribbean Studies at the University of Washington. She's currently based in Mexico City.

More than 26,000 Canadians remain stranded in Mexico, as the country grapples with cartel-related violence in the aftermath of El Mencho's death. The cartel leader, formally known as Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, was killed in a military-led operation on Sunday morning in Jalisco, Mexico, some 90 kilometres south of Guadalajara, and west of the popular resort town of Puerto Vallarta. He was known to be the head of one of the most violent criminal gangs in Mexico, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. Host Maria Kestane speaks to Jerry Flores, sociology professor at the University of Toronto, to break down how Mexico has gotten to this point, what residents could see in the weeks to come, and how the country's government should move forward to break the pattern of gang-related violence paralyzing the country.

Cartel Chaos in Mexico, Deep Freeze in NYC & Is Trump Losing His Base? Mexico is erupting after reports that cartel leader “El Mencho” is dead. Cities like Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara are facing violence, blockades, and fear. Why has the Mexican government struggled for years to defeat the cartels — and what happens now? Meanwhile, the Northeast is locked in a brutal freeze. New York City is sheltering in place as extreme cold grips the East Coast. Is this just winter… or another warning about infrastructure and preparedness? Plus — after traveling, spending time in the ICU with family, and watching the political climate shift, some hard lessons are emerging. Is Donald Trump losing parts of his own base? If so, what does that mean heading into the next election cycle? Cartels. Climate. Power. Loyalty. This episode connects the dots. The Karel Show streams live Monday–Thursday at 10:30 AM PST.

Read Drug Cartels Do Not Exist here: https://a.co/d/00YPWyr7 Through political and cultural analysis of representations of the so-called war on drugs, Oswaldo Zavala makes the case that the very terms we use to describe drug traffickers are a constructed subterfuge for the real narcos: politicians, corporations, and the military. Immigration has endured as a prevailing news topic, but it is a fixture of modern society in the neoliberal era; the future will be one of exile brought on by state violence and the plundering of our natural resources to sate capitalist greed. Yet the realities of violence in Mexico and along the border are obscured by the books, films, and TV series we consume. In truth, works like Sicario, The Queen of the South, and Narcos hide Mexico's political realities. Alongside these examples, Zavala discusses Charles Bowden, 2666 by Roberto Bolaño, and other important Latin American writers as examples of those who do capture the realities of the drug war.

Venezuelan Writer Discusses Maduro's Potential Fall and Regional Drug Cartel Connections. Alejandro Peña Esclusa discusses the potential fall of Nicolás Maduro in Caracas and its positive transversal effect on the entire continent, particularly regarding drug cartels and compromised leadership. He asserts that all members of the São Paulo Forum are related to drugs, and information will be revealed when Maduro falls. Currently, Hugo "El Pollo" Carvajal, the former head of Venezuelan intelligence, is on trial in New York. Carvajal has already pleaded guilty to being a member of the "Cartel of the Suns" and confessed to participating in giving drug money to several prominent political figures, including Gustavo Petro, Lula da Silva, the Kirchners in Argentina, Cinque Stelle (Five Star Movement) in Italy, and Podemos in Spain. More information is expected to be revealed.

SURINAME
1. Federal Control of D.C. Police Trump invoked Section 740 of the D.C. Home Rule Act to place the D.C. police under federal control. He declared a public safety emergency, citing high crime rates including murder, carjackings, and assaults. Additional measures included: Reassigning FBI agents to nighttime patrols. Deploying the National Guard. Appointing a federal commissioner for the D.C. police. 2. Legal Justification The podcast outlines constitutional and statutory authority for Trump’s actions: Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 of the U.S. Constitution. D.C. Code Section 49-49 and the 1973 Home Rule Act. Reference to Posse Comitatus Act and DOJ opinions that D.C. is legally distinct from other cities. 3. Criticism of Democrats and Media Hosts argue that Democrats and mainstream media are unfairly criticizing Trump’s actions. They claim Democrats oppose law enforcement and support policies that increase crime (e.g., no cash bail). The podcast accuses the media of misrepresenting Trump’s actions as dictatorial. 4. Military Action Against Drug Cartels Trump reportedly authorized military force against cartels like MS-13 and Cartel de los Soles. The move is compared to Plan Colombia, a U.S. military initiative under President George W. Bush. The podcast suggests this could be a turning point in combating drug-related violence and trafficking. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
