Barry E. “Butch” Wilmore was raised in Tennessee, where an early fascination with aviation, engineering, and disciplined teamwork set the course for his career. He earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in electrical engineering from Tennessee Technological University, along with a master's degree in aviation systems from the University of Tennessee. Before NASA, Wilmore served as a U.S. Navy aviator, test pilot, and squadron officer, accumulating more than 8,000 flight hours and 663 carrier landings in tactical jet aircraft. Wilmore flew A-7E and F/A-18 aircraft during four operational deployments aboard the USS Forrestal, Kennedy, Enterprise, and Eisenhower. He completed 21 combat missions during Operation Desert Storm and also flew in support of Desert Shield, Southern Watch, and NATO operations over Bosnia. A graduate of the U.S. Naval Test Pilot School, he contributed to the early development and carrier certification of the T-45 jet trainer, experience that proved critical to his later astronaut duties. Selected as a NASA astronaut in 2000, Wilmore flew three space missions totaling 464 days in space. He piloted STS-129 aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis in 2009, delivering critical hardware to the ISS. In 2014–2015, he launched aboard a Russian Soyuz as part of Expedition 41, later assuming command of Expedition 42, spending 167 days in orbit and conducting four spacewalks. Most recently, he commanded Boeing Starliner's first crewed flight in 2024; following an uncrewed return decision, he completed a long-duration ISS mission and returned to Earth in March 2025 aboard SpaceX Crew-9. Wilmore retired from NASA in July 2025 after 25 years with the agency, one of the few astronauts to fly aboard the Space Shuttle, Soyuz, Starliner, and Crew Dragon. He is married to Deanna, with whom he has two daughters, and is known for steady leadership, deep technical skill, faith, and continued commitment to mentorship and STEM outreach.

Romans 4:1-13 Justification by Faith Articulated (vv. 1-3) What shall we say? What does Scripture say? Justification by Faith Celebrated (vv. 4-8) The dilemma Debt owed, law/works Debt paid, grace/ faith The delight Justification by Faith Calculated (vv. 9-12; see Gen. 12:1-3) One man + One nation + One faith = One salvation More to Consider Just before General Eisenhower died, Billy Graham was invited to visit him at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, DC He was told he could stay thirty minutes. When he went in, the general was wearing his usual big smile, even though he knew he didn't have long to live. Later Billy Graham told what happened: "When the thirty minutes were up, he asked me to stay longer and said to me, Billy, I want you to tell me again how can I be sure my sins were forgiven and that I am going to heaven, because nothing else matters now."I took my New Testament and read him Scriptures. I pointed out that we are not going to heaven because of our good works, or because of money we've given to the church. We are going to heaven totally and completely on the basis of the merits of what Christ did on the cross. Therefore he could rest in the comfort that Jesus paid it all! After prayer, Ike said, "Thank you I'm ready!" Encyclopedia of 15,000 Illustrations A Calcutta paper relates that a young Brahman came to the house of a missionary for an interview. In the course of the conversation, he said: "Many things which Christianity contains are found in Hinduism, but there is one thing which Christianity has and Hinduism has not." "What is that?" the missionary asked. His reply was striking: "A Saviour." Signs of the Times The word turnpike came from an early American custom of blocking toll roads with pikes or poles. When the toll fee had been duly paid, the pikes or poles were lowered. Houston Times

Cuba is facing the greatest existential threat it has seen in decades. Trash is filling streets, because garbage trucks can't make the rounds. Rolling blackouts, rising food prices and cuts to transportation, university classes, and hospitals amid a gas shortage, the likes of which the country hasn't seen in years.US President Donald Trump, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and other officials have made it clear that they aren't interested in anything less than regime change.

In this never-before-seen video interview, a former U.S. Marine known as Captain K (Randy Cramer) shares a shocking personal account of spending 17 years on Mars serving at a secret military base whose main mission was to protect five civilian space colonies. The whistleblower, Cramer, who first used the pseudonym Captain Kaye and first released his testimony via audio in 2014, said that the Mars Defense Force recruits personnel from different military services. He claims that he was recruited from a covert branch of the U.S. Marine Corps called “Special Section.”Captain Kaye's testimony reveals that the main human colony on Mars is called Aries Prime which is located inside a crater. Aries Prime serves as the headquarters for the Mars Colony Corporation. According to Captain Kaye, the air is breathable on the surface of Mars, and the temperature could be warm at times.He claims that there are two indigenous species on Mars, both of which are highly intelligent. One of these was a Reptilian species that was very aggressive in defending its territory. The other was an Insectoid species that was equally capable of protecting its territory. He said that indigenous Martians are not particularly interested in expanding their territory, only maintaining it. Captain Kaye said that as long as the Mars Defense Force and Mars Colony Corporation did not encroach on the territory of the indigenous Martians, there would be stable relations.After serving 17 years of a 20 year tour of duty, events changed dramatically when virtually all combat personnel from the Mars Defense force were asked to retrieve an extraterrestrial artifact from a cave sacred to the indigenous Reptilians. Captain Kaye (Cramer) described how over 1000 men and women were killed in a subsequent battle and only 28 of his colleagues, including himself, survived.Captain Kaye is currently seeking documents to verify his incredible experiences, and for now offers his testimony as evidence of a break away human civilization based on Mars. Parts of his testimony is consistent with the claims of other whistleblowers who have previously come forward to reveal secret events on Mars. Michael Relfe, for example, claims that he also was recruited for a 20 year tour of duty that involved covert operations on Mars. Also, Laura Magdalene Eisenhower, the great granddaughter of President Eisenhower, claims that covert efforts were made to recruit her to join a colony on Mars that was headed by famed physicist, Dr Hal Puthoff. Finally, Captain Kaye's claims that Mars has a breathable atmosphere is supported by a number of NASA images revealing small animals on the surface.Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean More War Crimes Testimonies The Racket of Modern Warfare: Unmasking the Military-Industrial Complex Radio Transcript AnalysisMarch 04, 2026 Sons of Liberty: More War Crimes Testimonies An examination of the military-industrial complex, unconstitutional warfare, and the human cost of regime change. Core Perspectives "I was a racketeer for capitalism... I suspect I was just part of the racket all the time."— Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler 1 The 7-Country Memo Gen. Wesley Clark's revelation of a Pentagon plan to "take out" 7 countries in 5 years post-9/11. 2 Incentivized Atrocities Soldier John Michael Turner testifies to being congratulated for killing civilians and offered "4-day passes" for stabbings. 3 Constitutional Erosion Critique of sanctuary city mayors and federal overreach as "tyranny where the law ends." Contextual Data Global Military Footprint 737 Bases Across 142+ Countries Key Figures Cited: Dwight Eisenhower Smedley Butler Wesley Clark John Michael Turner John Adams Theological Framework: The show argues that the "American people need to repent" and that the Constitution is only adequate for a "moral and religious people." #AntiWar #Constitutionalism #Liberty Speaker: Bradley Dean | 60 Min Broadcast This broadcast of Sons of Liberty examines the systemic corruption within the U.S. government, ranging from the defiance of federal law in sanctuary cities to the orchestration of unconstitutional foreign wars. Through historical warnings and veteran testimonies, the program challenges the prevailing narratives of the military-industrial complex and calls for a return to biblical and constitutional foundations. Domestic Lawlessness and the Sanctuary City Conflict The program opens with a critique of big-city mayors who have vowed to defy federal law regarding sanctuary cities. Citing John Locke's principle that "wherever the law ends, tyranny begins," the host argues that these leaders are effectively harboring illegal aliens and misusing tax money without delegated authority from the people. Specifically, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is accused of using "totalitarian methods" to undermine public safety by refusing to cooperate with executive orders, despite claims that such defiance protects immigrant communities. The discussion extends to the broader impact of migration, citing significant crime increases and welfare dependency rates in Europe and the United States. The host posits that the compromise of the modern Church has allowed "politics without God" to flourish, leading to a society that no longer adheres to the Christian ethics upon which the nation was founded. The Military-Industrial "Racket" "I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for big business, for Wall Street and for the bankers... I was a racketeer for capitalism." — Major General Smedley Butler (1940) The Evolution of the Military-Industrial Complex Central to the broadcast is the warning issued by President Dwight D. Eisenhower regarding the "military-industrial complex." Newly uncovered documents suggest that Eisenhower's famous farewell address was a deeply personal attempt to alert the American people to the acquisition of unwarranted influence by the armaments industry. The host contrasts this historical caution with modern administrations, which he characterizes as "draft dodgers" taking dictates from international banking interests and Zionist influences. He argues that the narrative of "righteous war" has been lost, as the military has evolved into a tool for commercial gain rather than national defense. Orchestrated Conflicts and the "Seven Countries" Memo General Wesley Clark's testimony serves as a pivotal piece of evidence for the program's claim that wars are premeditated. Clark recounts a memo from the Secretary of Defense's office shortly after 9/11, which outlined a plan to "take out seven countries in five years," starting with Iraq and ending with Iran. The host highlights that these decisions were made without any proven connection between Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaeda, suggesting that the U.S. military is being used as a "hammer" looking for "nails" to justify its existence and generate profit. This orchestrated violence is further illustrated by the "frivolous" reaction of George W. Bush to the lack of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) in Iraq. The host notes that while the administration mocked the public with "half-smirks," the human cost was devastating, resulting in the deaths of over 4,000 U.S. soldiers and approximately one million Iraqis. The Post-9/11 Targeted Nations As revealed by General Wesley Clark regarding the Pentagon's 5-year plan: 1. Iraq2. Syria3. Lebanon4. Libya5. Somalia6. Sudan7. Iran Testimonies of War Crimes and Moral Accountability The program concludes with a harrowing testimony from John Michael Turner, an Iraq War veteran who renounced his medals. Turner describes killing innocent civilians and being "congratulated" by high-ranking military brass for his first kill. He details an environment where soldiers were incentivized with "four-day passes" for stabbing Iraqis to death. The host uses these accounts to argue that the American people are accomplices to these crimes by tolerating corruption in the halls of government. He calls for national repentance, asserting that the "appalling silence of the good people" is the greatest tragedy of the current era. Key Data Military Presence: 737 military bases in over 142 countries. Iraq War Toll: 4,343 U.S. soldiers lost; 1 million innocent Iraqis killed. Financial Gain: $34.5 billion made from the Iraq conflict. Global Crime Stats: 450% more crimes by Muslim migrants in Denmark; 77% of rapes in Sweden committed by a 2% minority. U.S. Welfare: 91.4% of Muslim refugees on food stamps; 68.3% on cash welfare. To-Do / Next Steps Citizens must stop being "entertained" by congressional hearings and demand actual accountability for treasonous acts. Individuals in the military must uphold their oath to the Constitution and refuse unconstitutional orders. Americans are urged to repent for tolerating the "theft of billions" and the murder of innocents in foreign lands. Support the ministry's efforts to expose corruption by becoming a "Son or Daughter of Liberty." Schedule community events with Bradley Dean to spread the message of liberty and biblical truth. Conclusion The broadcast serves as a stark reminder that the survival of the American Republic depends on a moral and religious people. By exposing the "racket" of war and the lawlessness of domestic leaders, the program seeks to awaken a "knowledgeable citizenry" capable of guarding against the disastrous rise of misplaced power.

Dear Friends, You wont want to miss this episode, especially if you're tracking what's happening in the Middle East. In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with Laura Eisenhower, global alchemist and founder of CosmicGaia.org, and great-granddaughter of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower, for a deeply expansive conversation on astrology, collective timelines, and the energetic dynamics shaping our world.Laura shares why she sees linear time as increasingly fluid and why astrology is best understood as a map of cycles and probabilities rather than fixed prediction. Together, we explore the South Node in Virgo / North Node in Pisces axis and what it is teaching humanity about mind–body–spirit integration and learning to trust the body's intelligence. We also dive into the powerful outer-planet alignments, including Saturn and Neptune, and what they may be dissolving within old authority structures. A key part of our conversation explores Laura's research into the Iran region as a significant energetic gateway within the planetary stargate framework, and how she believes trauma loops and reversal patterns in key global locations can ripple through the collective field. “We don't want to lose ourselves to the fear and the outcome — we want to hold what we want to see.” - Laura Eisenhower In this episode, we explore:- The dissolving illusion of linear time and “divine timing”- South Node Virgo → North Node Pisces integration- Saturn–Neptune dynamics and collapsing old structures- Nervous system regulation as a spiritual technology- Discernment in the age of information overload- Iran and the 10th Gate in Laura's planetary stargate framework- Reversal timelines and collective trauma loops- Planetary grids and global energetic hotspots- Working with water, prayer, and emotional coherence- Choosing love, family, and community in volatile timesIf you have been feeling the intensity of the current moment, this conversation offers both cosmic context and grounded tools to help you stay centered, sovereign, and connected to your inner knowing.Guest: Laura EisenhowerWebsite: CosmicGaia.orgIf you enjoyed this episode we would love to hear from you!

While the world's attention is focused on the Middle East, Inside Politics looks at the US sphere of influence on Cuba, which is facing ever tightening economic sanctions.Cuban governments have survived attempts to overthrow it by multiple US administrations going all the way back to Dwight Eisenhower following the revolution led by Fidel Castro in 1959.Over the decades, Cuban governments have managed to survive crippling economic sanctions largely because of its allies in the region, namely Venezuela.In recent weeks, the US Navy has amassed a huge number of vessels in the Caribbean Sea to stop oil imports to Cuba, and the US government has threatened sanctions on Mexico if it tries to deliver oil to the island. But why now? And what impact will it have on the Cuban government, and on the lives of the people there.The journalist Hannah McCarthy travelled to Cuba to find out.“What we're seeing is just a grinding halt of daily life” she said.“Buses not running. Rolling blackouts that were already happening before are increasing" and "people's lives have contracted to finding food or running water"."Cuban's are fed up" she added.Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean What The Soldiers Are Saying About War That The Warmongers Do Not Want You To Hear Unmasking the War Racket: From Founding Principles to the Military-Industrial Complex Radio Transcript SummaryMarch 03, 2026 Sons of Liberty: What Soldiers Say About War An exposé on the Military-Industrial Complex, unconstitutional wars, and the "War is a Racket" reality. Systemic Growth & Cost $179k Per Hour Flight Cost 3,000% Reg. Increase (1900+) Federal Budget (1832) $11 Million Federal Budget (2011) $4+ Trillion Current National Debt $38 Trillion Global Military Bases 737 in 142 Countries Core Perspectives "War is a racket. It is the only one in which profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives." — Smedley Butler (Highest Decorated Marine) 1 Constitutional Betrayal: Politicians wage wars without Congressional approval, overriding the "enumerated laws." 2 The Soldier's Regret: Testimony from "Steve" highlights guilt over civilian casualties and serving as "muscle for big business." 3 The Eisenhower Warning: Recognition of the "Military-Industrial Complex" as a misplaced power overriding the people. Then (Washington Era) Led from the front, minimal security, 350 federal employees, debt-free mindset. Now (Modern Era) Crowned king status, millions of employees, $4T+ budget, draft-dodging leaders. Keywords:#Constitution #AntiWar #SmedleyButler #Liberty Est. Reading Time: 8 mins This broadcast contrasts the self-sacrificing leadership of George Washington with the modern expansion of the "crowned" presidency and the military-industrial complex. Through veteran testimonies and historical warnings, it argues that modern unconstitutional wars serve corporate interests rather than national defense. It calls for a return to biblical morality and constitutional education to preserve the American republic. Detailed Summary The Erosion of Leadership and the Rise of the Administrative State The program opens by contrasting George Washington's providential protection and personal sacrifice during the Revolutionary War with the modern presidency's exorbitant costs and isolation from the citizenry. While Washington led from the front with minimal resources, modern presidents are described as "wearing the crown" rather than "bearing the cross," supported by a massive security apparatus and a federal budget that has ballooned from 11 million (1832) to over 4 trillion (2011). This growth in government scope—from 350 civilian employees in 1789 to millions today—is presented as a direct threat to individual liberty, as increased centralized control inevitably leads to a decrease in personal responsibility. The host cites Thomas Jefferson's warning to "tie the government down with the chains of the Constitution" to prevent it from becoming a legalized version of the criminals it is meant to suppress. The Scale of Expansion: Then vs. Now Federal Employees (1789) 350 Federal Employees (Today) Millions Regulatory Growth: The number of laws and regulations governing the average citizen has increased by an estimated 3,000% since 1900. War as a Corporate Racket Central to the discussion is the critique of interventionist foreign policy, framed by General Smedley Butler's famous assertion that "war is a racket." The host highlights how military force has historically been used as "high-class muscle" for Wall Street and international banking interests, citing interventions in Mexico, Haiti, Cuba, and Nicaragua to protect oil, fruit, and sugar interests. The broadcast argues that modern "warmongers" in Washington often dodge personal service while sending the children of the working class to fight unconstitutional wars. This is further supported by Dwight D. Eisenhower's 1961 farewell address, which warned of the "unwarranted influence" of the military-industrial complex—a warning the host believes has been fully realized in the current era of perpetual conflict and a $38 trillion national debt. The Soldier's Regret and Moral Accountability A significant portion of the broadcast features "Steve," a veteran who expresses deep regret over his service, questioning the legitimacy of wars that violate the Constitution. Steve discusses the moral burden of being part of a system that "bombs elementary schools" and installs foreign dictators (like Noriega or Saddam Hussein) only to later remove them at the cost of American blood and treasure. The dialogue emphasizes that "rights are a two-way street" and that the U.S. cannot claim a right to safety while violating the rights of other nations. The host concludes that the American public must move beyond blind partisan loyalty and educate themselves on the Constitution and biblical repentance to stop the cycle of "legalized" violence and economic destruction. Global Military Footprint The U.S. currently maintains a vast international presence that the broadcast argues is unconstitutional and economically unsustainable: 737 Military bases worldwide. Presence in 142 different countries. Pentagon budget approaching $1.5 Trillion. "War is the only racket in which profits are reckoned in dollars and losses in lives." — Smedley Butler Key Data Air Force One Cost: $179,750 per hour for fuel, maintenance, and sundries alone. Federal Budget Growth: From 11 million (1832) to over 4 trillion (2011). National Debt: Currently cited at $38 trillion. Military Presence: 737 bases in 142 countries. War Frequency: The U.S. has been at war for 93% of its 250-year history. To-Do / Next Steps Read War is a Racket (approx. 70 pages) by Smedley Butler to understand the internal mechanics of military intervention. Study the historical background of the Constitution to prevent its subversion by illegitimate government forms. Examine Acts 12:22 and Luke 12:58 to understand the biblical necessity of repentance and aligning with God's will. Research the "military-industrial complex" warning in Eisenhower's 1961 farewell address. Educate yourself on the difference between the Constitution and common law to recognize political propaganda. Conclusion The document serves as a stern warning against the "bastardized form of illegitimate government" that arises when the Constitution is separated from its moral and historical roots. It posits that true national security and liberty can only be restored through individual education, a refusal to fund unconstitutional warfare, and a return to the "laws of God" upon which the nation was founded.

Hawk breaks down the full arc of US-Iran relations, from the cordial diplomatic ties of the 1720s all the way to the current war that Secretary of State Marco Rubio openly admitted was triggered by Israel. Starting with Persia's constitutional revolution, American economic advisors in the 1920s, and the cordial relations that held through World War II, the story takes a sharp turn in 1953 when the CIA and British intelligence MI6 orchestrated a coup overthrowing Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammed Mosaddegh, who had nationalized the country's oil industry. The US then reinstalled the Shah of Iran and helped build his brutal secret police force SAVAK, and in a stunning irony, it was President Dwight D. Eisenhower who launched Iran's nuclear program and provided the country's first nuclear reactor and enriched uranium in 1967. The 1979 Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, the 444-day hostage crisis, the Iran-Iraq War, Reagan's support for Saddam Hussein, Hezbollah, the Iran-Contra affair, the JCPOA under Obama, Trump pulling out of the nuclear deal, and the killing of General Qassem Soleimani all connect in a straight line to the current US-Iran war. Marco Rubio told congressional leaders that the US entered the war preemptively because Israel was going to attack Iran, and Iran would have retaliated against American forces. Rubio's admission drew reaction from Congressman Joaquin Castro and even conservative commentator Matt Walsh, who called it the worst possible thing Rubio could have said. Six US service members are dead. Hawk also shares a personal story about Sean Penn, Lars Ulrich of Metallica, and a surreal afternoon in San Francisco tied directly to Iran's 2005 presidential election.

Trong bối cảnh hội nhập sâu rộng, quyền lực của một quốc gia không chỉ nằm ở quy mô kinh tế hay sức mạnh địa chính trị, mà còn ở khả năng tạo dựng hình ảnh và sức hút văn hóa. Với Việt Nam, quyền lực mềm ngày càng trở thành một yếu tố quan trọng trong việc định vị thương hiệu quốc gia trên trường quốc tế.Ẩm thực, du lịch, nghệ thuật và các giá trị truyền thống đang góp phần lan tỏa hình ảnh Việt Nam ra thế giới. Trong đó, Vovinam – môn võ do người Việt sáng lập – cũng được xem là một biểu tượng của quyền lực mềm, khi hiện diện tại nhiều quốc gia thông qua các hoạt động đào tạo và giao lưu quốc tế.Để hiểu rõ hơn về những giá trị ảnh hưởng mà quyền lực mềm mang lại cho Việt Nam, Vietnam Innovators Digest có dịp được trò chuyện và lắng nghe những chia sẻ từ Doanh nhân Mai Hữu Tín, Chủ tịch Liên đoàn Vovinam thế giới (WVVF).

I had a friend who was a veteran sailor, and occasionally he would take us out on his sailboat. And I learned that when my sailing friend said it was time to go in, I'd better listen. There were times when we were out and the weather was beautiful, and I thought it was going to stay beautiful. But, man, his instincts knew better. He'd say, "I think we'd better go in." I'd say, "On a beautiful day like this? This is a ten." He'd say, "It isn't going to stay that way." You know, there has been more than one occasion where I sailed with him into port and entered the harbor just as the storm broke loose. His instincts were amazing! You might be in a storm right now, or maybe you're headed for one and it just doesn't look like it yet. I have some very critical advice before you set your course or before you sail any further. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Navigating Stormy Weather." Now, our word today from the Word of God is found in Luke 5:5, and the occasion here is where Jesus has asked Simon Peter to go out and fish again after he had fished all night and caught nothing. And Jesus said, "Look, I know it's the middle of the day. I know that it's hot. I know it doesn't look like a good time to go out, but I want you to." Simon answered, "Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything, but because You say so, I will let down the nets." See, the way it looked would have led Simon Peter to a fruitless conclusion...or let's say a fishless conclusion. It looked like there was no point in going back out again, but Jesus said do it. And just because He said it, Simon Peter did it. And what Jesus said, led to victory. I watched an interview that was recorded on an anniversary of the D-Day Invasion - the greatest military assault in history - June 6th, 1944. General Eisenhower told about how the decision was made to go on that date. He wanted to go on June 4th or 5th, and June 4th, 1944, was a beautiful, starlit night. The commanders of the allied troops were gathered with General Eisenhower at their Southwick House command post in England. Colonel Page was the Chief Army Meteorologist, and General Eisenhower was told by him that gale-force winds and high tides would soon be assaulting the Normandy beaches; actually by the next morning. Well, should Ike believe what he saw - this beautiful, clear starlit night? Or should he listen to the man who knew? His answer, "No go." Even though it would cost them their first choice and it would prolong the wait for 180,000 troops who were waiting on ships anxious to move. Now the next day - opposite weather. It was stormy as predicted and Colonel Page came in and said, "We're going to have improved weather the next day with moderate winds and tides. It's going to be a good day to go." Okay, should General Eisenhower go by his senses, or by the man who's the authority? Ike paused for about 30 seconds, and then he said two words that are emblazoned in history, "Let's go." The room was clear in two seconds, and the rest is history. Now, you have a decision right now to make whether to believe what your senses, and your feelings, and your environment are telling you about a moral choice, about giving up on a person, about giving in to a temptation, about giving up on a commitment like a marriage, or about running into a decision. Don't base your life on what's going to change in 20 minutes - which is your feelings. Base it on the Word of God which hasn't changed in 20 centuries. Do it His way, no matter how it feels.

Israel's lighting campaign in the Sinai in 1956 resulted in a routing of the Egyptian forces and capture of the entire Sinai Peninsula in less than 100 hours. The threat of Egypt deploying its brand-new military hardware from the Soviet Union had been averted. But in a fluke of history, President Eisenhower, instead of siding with his natural allies, Britain, France and Israel, sided with the Soviet Union and Nasser's Egypt and demanded immediate Israeli withdrawal in return for nothing – or else! Eventually Israel received guarantees of right of passage through the Staits of Tiran and that the United Nations Expeditionary Force would be stationed in Gaza to prevent the penetration of Fedayeen terrorists into Israel. Israel's case against the unaccommodating Eisenhower administration, most notably Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, was assisted by Lyndon Johnson, Democratic leader in the Senate, and members of the press and Congress who were friends of Israel. The United States was employing a painful double standard by not doing anything as Hungarian protestors demanded freedom from Soviet oppression, and were murdered wholesale for their dissidence; yet the United States demanded with the threat of immediate sanctions, that Israel, which had gone to war for legitimate grievances, immediately withdraw from the entire Sinai. Israel gained from the battle a decade of quiet which was so necessary to build the State, and in the process demonstrated that the Middle East had a new military power.

1. Criticism of Democratic Leaders on Law Enforcement Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, and other Democratic figures are hostile toward law enforcement agencies, particularly ICE and National Guard deployments. Obama is quoted as describing some federal agents’ actions as “rogue,” which the speakers interpret as an attack on ICE. Gavin Newsom is criticized for comments comparing masked federal agents to authoritarian “secret police,” specifically referencing imagery associated with Germany’s past. Newsom’s claim that National Guard federalization was unprecedented. President Eisenhower’s 1957 use of federal authority to enforce desegregation in Little Rock, Arkansas. Newsom is “historically illiterate,” which later triggers a public Twitter exchange. 2. Newsom’s Response and the Dyslexia Angle Newsom accuses Ted Cruz of mocking his dyslexia. Cruz responds that “historically illiterate” referred to misunderstanding history, not reading ability. A social‑media back‑and‑forth unfolds, including jokes, memes, and comparisons of engagement statistics. Obama is: Highly partisan, Influential on younger progressive Democrats, Associated with cultural or “Marxist” ideological trends (as described by the speakers), Possibly influential behind the scenes during the Biden administration. Obama’s presidency contributed to increased political division. 3. Discussion of Tucker Carlson’s Recent Behavior Carlson has changed significantly since leaving Fox News. Anti‑Israel sentiment Hosting extremist guests Favoring authoritarians such as Putin or Iranian leadership Attacking Christian Zionists He may have ulterior financial or ideological motivations (while acknowledging no direct evidence). Carlson claimed Israeli airport officials detained him and questioned his team. Video footage showed him freely interacting with people at the airport, Israeli officials denied detaining him, A U.S. embassy statement also contradicted Carlson’s story. Carlson traveled to Israel to interview the ambassador but insisted on conducting the interview at the airport. Carlson claiming safety concerns while contrasting it with his willingness to travel in Russia or Qatar. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

PART II ALREADY OUT ON PATREON! IT'S AD-FREE, AND THERE'S A TON OF OTHER GREAT PATREON PERKS, JOIN US THERE!Ash and Kristen begin their dive into the wildly controversial world of Graham Hancock and his hotly debated speculations. Along the way, they take approximately 700 Wikipedia detours through Gnosticism, Catharism, esoteric secret-knowledge clubs, and so much conspiracy-adjacent archaeology, religious relic lore, and Ice Age brain-melt timelines that Ash has to stop Kristen every 2-3 minutes to define something. So naturally, we had to make this a two-parter!In part one, the gals talk about Hancock's journey from respected journalist to alternative archaeologist who digs into controversial theories about lost ancient civilizations and literally everything else throughout time and space. They dig into his greatest hits: the Ark of the Covenant, the Knights Templar, pyramids/Sphinx “they're older than you think” chaos, the Face on Mars, and that whole “is this an ancient warning or just Virgin Mary on toast?” dilemma.STUFF TO CHEER YOU UP:Ash's list of "Comfort Shows" (and where to watch them for freeeee)Ash learned a dance and actually filmed it... aka Ash dancing alone in …her yard aka "How Ash Likes to Party" Behind the scenes of Ash struggling to make a simple dance video ft. her SPARKLY BOOTS!PODS TO KEEP YOU INFORMED:It Could Happen Here- It Could Happen Here started as an exploration of the possibility of a new civil war.

The world's largest public works investment visible from space, the Interstate Highway System and the hundreds of thousands of miles of supporting roadways, are frequently hailed as a marvel and triumph of engineering. President Eisenhower's 1956 Interstate Highway Act is often praised as a model of successful bipartisanship. Today, the extensive damage wreaked by the creation of the highway system and the ills of car dependency are more widely acknowledged. Congestion and traffic deaths remain endemic despite nearly three-quarters a century of public policies and trillions of dollars spent with a primary stated goal of reducing congestion and improving traffic safety. The financing, governance, and construction models established by the 1956 act continue to influence what gets built today. In Overbuilt: The High Costs and Low Rewards of US Highway Construction (Island Press, 2025), transportation planning expert Dr. Erick Guerra describes how the US roadway system became overbuilt, how public policy continues to encourage overbuilding, what the scale and consequences of overbuilding are, and how we can rethink our approach to highway building in the US. Guerra explains that the national propensity to build roadways is no longer official or intentional policy. Instead, overbuilding stems from the institutions, finance mechanisms, and evaluation metrics developed in the first half of the twentieth century. While more funds are set aside for transit, walking, biking, and beautification, the investment paradigm has not changed. Planners and engineers have not adjusted the tools they use to determine which roads should be built, rebuilt, or widened and why. The country has added more lanes of urban Interstate since declaring the Interstate system complete than prior to it. Despite having too much roadway, the country is still operating in construction mode, using the same basic approach used to finance and build the interstate system quickly, Dr. Guerra states. The interstate was completed more than three decades ago. Overbuilt argues convincingly that it is time to move on. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This week, we start with one of the wildest comeback stories in modern sports. Anthony Kim — after disappearing for a decade, battling addiction, injury, and mental health — shoots 63 in Australia and beats Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau. For a guy who didn't even own clubs for 10 years, it was electric. Not just a golf story — a life story. We also break down: Scottie Scheffler's absurd consistency and why he's not flashy… just relentless. Pebble Beach looking incredible — and the bigger question of whether modern equipment is making historic courses obsolete. LIV drawing 115,000 fans in Australia and what that means for the future of pro golf. And whether the PGA Championship is quietly losing relevance. Then we pivot to presidential golf history. From Woodrow Wilson playing 1,000 rounds, to Eisenhower practically living at Augusta National… to JFK's talent, LBJ using golf to pass legislation, Nixon quitting for optics, Clinton rebuilding the White House putting green, Obama's smack talk, and Trump's serious game. Golf has always been a great tool fr connecting with others. If you love the game beyond just the leaderboard, this one's for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Cindy Schweich Handler's work has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Newsweek, Redbook, The Huffington Post, and a host of other national publications. She is a former editor and writer for the USA Today Network. A German Jew's Triumph: Fritz Oppenheimer and the Denazification of Germany (McFarland, 2025) is based on primary sources such as Fritz's contemporaneous World War I diaries, journals kept by his wife, Elsbeth, and a copious collection of letters he wrote to her during their long separations. After 9/11, Harry Handler decided to explore this inheritance to see whether he could learn more about his grandfather's life. A towering personality packed into a 5'3" frame, Oppenheimer was a wealthy Jewish Berliner who fled the Third Reich in mid-1938, joined basic training in the U.S. Army at forty-five, and ultimately became General Eisenhower's legal aide and translator—tasked with helping to build a sustainable postwar democracy in his former homeland. This historical biography presents a previously untold David-and-Goliath story, demonstrating how one individual's persistence can help change the course of history and forge a more hopeful future. A German Jew's Triumph portrays Fritz Oppenheimer as a figure of extraordinary skill, moral complexity, and intellectual discipline. Cindy Schweich Handler preserves his voice, his diaries, and the historical record while also inviting readers to grapple with the discomforts of assimilation, restraint, and ethical judgment under extreme circumstances.

Ronak explains why spot payments are high risk, why manual workflows still dominate the space, and how stablecoins and AI are about to reshape fraud, identity, and trust.Key TakeawaysOne time payouts are a fraud magnet, inconsistent winners and risk based rules make verification and compliance much harder than payrollSolving payments without solving tax and forms still leaves the biggest liability sitting with the organizerMany sports and esports operators still run payouts in a surprisingly analog way, checks, cash, and post event cleanupAI is now good enough to pressure identity verification, and stablecoins make recovery harder because transfers are effectively finalProduct adoption depends on meeting users where they are, younger athletes expect texting and simple flows, not tickets and portalsTimestamped Highlights00:29 What Payment Labs actually does, payouts plus tax compliance plus support for sports, esports, and creator economy use cases01:15 The origin story, a real tax problem hit an esports operator and exposed how broken the payout workflow is02:46 Why spot payments raise risk, random recipients, fraud pressure, and why bank partners treat this differently than payroll04:58 The industry reality check, still running on checks and cash, and what digitizing the workflow unlocks next06:58 AI fraud versus AI detection, how identity verification is getting bypassed and why stablecoin rails raise the stakes11:55 The NIL wild west and the product lesson, meet athletes where they already live, including iMessage supportA Line Worth RepeatingNow you have AI committing the fraud and then you have AI detecting the fraud.Pro Tips for Builders and OperatorsIf your users are young and mobile first, build support where they already communicate, texting beats ticketing for adoptionDo not bolt on AI for a storyline, use it where it replaces manual work you already do and frees time for higher leverage decisionsMap your tasks with the Eisenhower quadrant, then automate what is repetitive before you chase shiny featuresCall to ActionIf this episode helped you think differently about fintech, fraud, and modern payout infrastructure, follow the show and share it with a founder or operator who touches payments.

Cindy Schweich Handler's work has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Newsweek, Redbook, The Huffington Post, and a host of other national publications. She is a former editor and writer for the USA Today Network. A German Jew's Triumph: Fritz Oppenheimer and the Denazification of Germany (McFarland, 2025) is based on primary sources such as Fritz's contemporaneous World War I diaries, journals kept by his wife, Elsbeth, and a copious collection of letters he wrote to her during their long separations. After 9/11, Harry Handler decided to explore this inheritance to see whether he could learn more about his grandfather's life. A towering personality packed into a 5'3" frame, Oppenheimer was a wealthy Jewish Berliner who fled the Third Reich in mid-1938, joined basic training in the U.S. Army at forty-five, and ultimately became General Eisenhower's legal aide and translator—tasked with helping to build a sustainable postwar democracy in his former homeland. This historical biography presents a previously untold David-and-Goliath story, demonstrating how one individual's persistence can help change the course of history and forge a more hopeful future. A German Jew's Triumph portrays Fritz Oppenheimer as a figure of extraordinary skill, moral complexity, and intellectual discipline. Cindy Schweich Handler preserves his voice, his diaries, and the historical record while also inviting readers to grapple with the discomforts of assimilation, restraint, and ethical judgment under extreme circumstances.

Episode Summary. Few of us think we have the gifts to be a great leader; yet every married man has been assigned to the leadership role in his marriage. As Paul said “the head of a wife is her husband” (1 Cor 11:13). And of course we are assigned to lead our children as fathers. One of the biggest challenges for all leaders is motivating our followers to move in the direction we want them to go. Dwight Eisenhower, once said, “Leadership is the ability to get a person to do what you want him to do, when you want it done, in a way you want it done, because he wants to do it.” What a great description of Nehemiah. This episode examines how one of the greatest leaders in history overcame the apathy of the residents of Jerusalem to rebuild the wall around the city that had remained broken down for ninety years.For Further Prayerful Thought:What do you most want to remember about how Nehemiah motivated the people?How have you observed the principle that when people have ownership of a goal or an asset, they feel much more responsible and motivated to take action?As you consider the parallel between Nehemiah's method for building the wall and God's method for building the church, what most stood out about the church? For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)

Ghazal, an Iranian woman in London speaks about the recent destabilisation operation in Iran. This was a prelude to a regime-change war, she says. The chaos on the streets of Iran was no grass-roots revolution. The riots were aimed AGAINST the mass of the Iranian people, and were orchestrated by outside forces, led and funded by the US and the Israeli Zionists, and using the dregs of the reactionary deposed monarchists who are nurtured in the west, in the vein hope they can again be reinstalled in a sick re-run of the 1953 operation “Ajax”, which overthrew President Mosaddegh. That was a CIA plot led by Kermit (Kim) Roosvelt, Allen and John Foster Dulles, under Eisenhower's newly minted CIA regime change machine. It is the monopoly capitalists, facing immanent financial collapse, who are driving to crush the Iranian people to lay hands on again in their mineral wealth and grow rich from their super-exploitation and wage slavery. Iran stands at the centre of the axis of resistance. Women in Iran enjoy freedom, dignity, literacy, education and empowerment, the like of which they do not have in the west. It is for them to decide and form their future - not the financiers and wage lords of western capital. Long live the people of Iran!

Guest host Walter Sterling interviews Dave Scott, a Canadian broadcaster and self-proclaimed alien abductee who details his terrifying personal encounters with extraterrestrial beings. Scott describes vivid experiences of physical paralysis, telepathic communication, and miraculous healing following these events, while also linking his stories to a broader conspiracy theory involving an alleged deal between President Eisenhower and aliens. The conversation eventually transitions into a monologue by Sterling, who explores the human necessity for conspiracy theories in successful societies, using the sordid details of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and rumors of elite cannibalism to illustrate how the public fills gaps in information with dark imagination.

Most organizations are built to do exactly what they do…and that's the problem. When a core business starts to decay due to disruption, automation, or shifting customer demand, the instinct is to double down on efficiency, cost cutting, and short-term fixes. But that focus often crowds out the harder, riskier work of building what comes next. Nearly a decade ago, Dual Transformation offered a clear and compelling framework for this dilemma, yet nobody seems to be actually doing it. In this episode, Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin unpack why dual transformations are so rare, why it's even harder than it sounds, and why it matters more than ever in an AI-shaped economy. They dig into the tensions between “business A” (the core) and “business B” (the future), the funding and operating system traps that kill new growth, and practical moves leaders and internal change agents can make to actually pull of two transformations at once instead of just talking about it. -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: Type One vs Type Two fun Enneagram 7: AWWTR Ep. 33 with Liz Orr Ulysses (book) Dual Transformation (book) Clayton Christensen and disruptive innovation taxi and uber disruption Eisenhower matrix "Squirrel" Sam's manifesto 00:00 Intro + Check-In: What's some type two fun you've had recently? 04:29 What is Dual Transformation and why now? 13:27 Sounds simple, yet deceptively hard 21:05 The 3 crisis points of a dual transformation 27:12 Recognizing when you're in a dying business 30:57 Engineering a dual transformation from the inside out 37:24 Navigating the emotions of the dying business 39:14 Idea 1: Weekly feedback routines with customers 43:07 Idea 2: Import as little as possible from the old company 45:59 Idea 3: Write the manifesto for both businesses 47:29 Bonus Idea: Read Dual Transformation! 48:26 Wrap up Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

President Donald Trump delivers remarks on Feb. 5 at the 74th National Prayer Breakfast. The annual event has been attended by every president since President Dwight D. Eisenhower.Ukraine and Russia concluded a second day of U.S.-brokered talks in Abu Dhabi on Feb. 5, agreeing to a major prisoner swap, the first such exchange in five months, officials said.

America is facing something far more dangerous than protest or even rioting — it is an ongoing insurrection against federal immigration law. In this episode, I'm joined by former DHS official and legal expert George Fishman to break down why President Trump must immediately invoke the Insurrection Act to stop coordinated street violence, judicial obstruction, and open attacks on ICE officers in blue states. Fishman explains how the Insurrection Act has been used throughout American history — from Eisenhower to George Washington — and why today's coordinated effort to block immigration enforcement meets every legal threshold for invocation. I also discuss the double standard: how J6 defendants were prosecuted vs. current anti-ICE rioters; how judicial supremacy is nullifying the 1996 Immigration Act; the GOP's failure to use leverage in the DHS funding fight; and state-based enforcement as the final line of defense.

Jefferson signed it. Lincoln used it. Grant leveraged it to crush the KKK. Eisenhower deployed it to enforce civil rights. And now, Trump may use it to restore law and order in Minnesota. These are the FACTS about the Insurrection Act that the mainstream media won't tell you—and the Left desperately wants buried. --- Balance of Nature - Go to https://BalanceofNature.com to lock in 50% OFF for one year when you subscribe to the Whole Health System supplements as a Preferred Customer.

Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, hosts this Saturday's episode of “Relatable,” breaking down the week's biggest stories with fatherly wisdom and calm clarity. He explores the Insurrection Act's history — from George Washington's Whiskey Rebellion response to its use by Lincoln, Eisenhower, and Kennedy — explaining why President Trump's potential invocation to protect ICE officers amid escalating Minnesota violence is legally justified and precedented. Ron contrasts Democrat outrage now with their past calls to remove Maduro, highlights the tragic ICE shooting of Renee Good, and addresses fraud, sanctuary policies, and lawlessness. He answers listener questions on faith, family, voting, housing, and more — plus his “Words from the Wagon” life lesson.

In his rambling mess of a speech at Davos, Trump confused Iceland and Greenland, and demonstrated that he doesn't understand how NATO works. The infamous draft-dodger also seemed to call Truman and Eisenhower "stupid" for not just taking Greenland after WWII. Nevertheless, his threat to somehow get the island is undermining our international rules-based order. Plus, the secret, imperfect alliance in Congress that is blocking anti-trans legislation, the growing Dem opposition to the DHS funding bill, and the need to fight the trust deficit in the country —and the anger-tainment that is driving it.Delaware's Rep.
