Trump starts a trade war with Canada, announces “Economic D-Day” against Iran, while Russia deploys AI killer drones in Ukraine.Tommy and Ben break down the collapse of US-Canada trade negotiations, the politics animating Prime Minister Mark Carney's tough talk, and why a trade war carries long-term economic risks for Canada. Then the Trump administration threatens an “Economic D-Day” against Iran, which so far seems like an empty threat. In Ukraine, Russia has deployed autonomous drones that select their own targets using artificial intelligence, while CIA Director John Ratcliffe makes a mysterious trip to Moscow, and British Prime Minister Andy Burnham makes his first foreign trip to Kyiv and promises long-range missiles. The Pentagon fires the publisher, editor-in-chief, and a reporter from the military's own newspaper, “Stars and Stripes,” for speaking about the importance of editorial independence. And the guys dig into the rise of El Salvador's Nayib Bukele as the unlikely standard-bearer for a new wave of hard-right Latin American leaders, and show some terrifying and funny videos from the 2026 World Humanoid Robot Games. Then Ben interviews award-winning filmmaker Poh Si Teng and Dr. Feroze Sidhwa about the new documentary, American Doctor, that exposes the gut-wrenching experiences of doctors who went to Gaza to help, and the battle to force change back in Washington, D.C.Hate listening to ads?

The Trump administration has justified the mass incarceration and deportation of immigrants by asserting that it's going after the most violent offenders. Scholars of law and punishment, Keramet Reiter and Joshua Page, delve into the designation of the worst of the worse — from Three Strikes laws to longterm solitary confinement to mass detention under inhumane conditions and the transfer of immigrants to foreign prisons like CECOT in El Salvador. Joshua Page and Keramet Reiter, The Uses and Abuses of the “Worst of the Worst” Dissent July 8, 2026 The post Immigrant Detention and the “Worst of the Worst” appeared first on KPFA.

How does one ride with the wrong passenger turn an ordinary driver into a Bitcoin entrepreneur in El Salvador? I sat down with Pierre Valiente to find out, and his car rentals, airport transfers, and 14-room Bitcoin Casa guest house in San Salvador all accept Bitcoin, which makes life awkward for every critic who keeps telling me locals don't use it. The passenger was Sandy Wade, headed to the Adopting Bitcoin conference back in 2023. She tried to pay him with a $20 bill he couldn't break, he told her to keep it, and she invited him to the conference instead. Two days later he walked out understanding self custody, cold wallets, and why holding your own keys beats trusting a bank.The backstory alone is worth the listen. Pierre was born in Santa Ana, spent 22 years in Los Angeles, and taught English to special forces at a military camp in Dubai for four years before coming home to open his school near Metrocentro. That entrepreneurial streak is exactly what Bitcoin rewarded once he found it.His transportation business started with a single car after he noticed Bitcoiners landing at the airport with no good way to get around. Today the fleet runs from a Jeep Compass at $45 a day up to a brand new 4x4 at $60 to $65, insurance included, no hidden fees, every rental payable in Bitcoin. Anyone spending less than six months a year in the country should hear our rent-versus-buy conversation before letting a car rot through a wet season, and I speak from moldy experience.Bitcoin Casa is the hospitality side of the equation, a 14-room guest house seven minutes from the historic center that he built with his German partner for Bitcoiners who arrive with two suitcases and a plan. Short-term rentals run $35 a night, monthly stays run $500, and the rooms come with standing desks, Starlink, and a Bitcoin ATM in the lobby for anyone who wants to stack on arrival. He's already scouting Antiguo Cuscatlán and San Benito for location number two.Pierre's take on the adoption question might be the most honest one I've heard from a Salvadoran entrepreneur. Older folks sold their Chivo wallet bitcoin for fiat because nobody taught them what they were holding, and the younger generation grew up watching that mistake, so they want control of their own money. He calls himself part of the first wave, and he's hiring locals so the opportunity stays in the country.

Why do most expats moving to El Salvador pack up and fly home within three years, even after selling everything for their relocation dream of living abroad in Bitcoin country? Jenn Satterfeld ( @jeniarilagringasalvadorena ) has watched it happen over and over, and she says the ones who make it have something the others don't. I've got Jenn back in the studio, and she's the founder of Living Like a Local, one of the first immigration support and relocation companies in El Salvador. Oh, and she became a Salvadoran citizen the day before we recorded this.Jenn's own path started with world schooling her kids through Central America after her divorce, and she landed here before the Bitcoin Law even passed. Like most gringos, she figured Costa Rica was the place, until corruption, an impounded camper van, and four frustrating months sent her back to the one country that felt different. Then the Régimen de Excepción turned El Salvador into one of the safest countries in the world, her YouTube channel blew up overnight, and her subscribers became her first relocation clients.We get into how a lot of early Bitcoiners got themselves into trouble moving overseas, jumping in without due diligence and signing rental contracts they couldn't read in a legal system that works nothing like the one back home. Jenn explains why you can't sue your way out of a bad lease in El Salvador, why the cheapest lawyer ends up costing you more, and why the gringo tax exists but the folks who feel scammed usually just misread the culture. If you've got kids, you'll want to hear why El Salvador schooling comes before house hunting, and why she thinks educational sovereignty is the next wave coming after the Bitcoiners and the Canadians. Her investigation tour even sets off fireworks outside your hotel at midnight on purpose, because you'd better find out now if this country is for you.What I love most is Jenn's heart for community integration. She's watched the expat community wear out its welcome in Panama and Mexico by living in bubbles instead of becoming part of the neighborhood, and she's determined to keep that from happening here. Her service club, Darlo Mejor para El Salvador, connects expat mentors with Salvadoran youth, including an 87 year old Canadian engineer who answered Pres.  @nayibbukele 's call and now speaks to university students about futures they never imagined possible.If this episode made you want to pack your bags, or at least dodge a few lane splitting motorcycles, subscribe to the channel, share it with that friend who won't stop posting about leaving Canada, and tell us in the comments whether you'd survive fireworks outside your window at midnight.—Bitcoin Beach TeamLearn more about Jenn Satterfeld:Website: https://www.livinlikealocal.comYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@jeniarilagringasalvadorenaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/_jeni_ari_/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@_jeni_ari_FB: facebook.com/LivinLikeALocalSVSupport and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com STAY AT BITCOIN BEACH: https://www.stayatbitcoinbeach.com/punta-mango-villasBrowse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 Intro02:33 What is it like moving to El Salvador as a single mom with kids?04:58 Why are expats leaving Costa Rica for El Salvador?08:43 What does a relocation company in El Salvador actually do?13:56 What legal mistakes do foreigners make when moving to El Salvador?16:57 Should you visit El Salvador before moving there?22:15 Why do most expats move back home after two or three years?24:37 What are the best school options in El Salvador for expat families?28:43 Why are Canadians moving to El Salvador?35:21 How can expats give back and integrate into El Salvador?44:57 Is the gringo tax real or are expats just misreading the culture?46:50 How do you get Salvadoran citizenship as a foreigner? Live From Bitcoin Beach

Más de 480 presuntos integrantes de pandillas fueron juzgados de manera colectiva en El Salvador, en uno de los episodios más controvertidos del régimen de excepción impulsado por Nayib Bukele. Mientras el Gobierno defiende estas medidas como parte de su ofensiva contra el crimen organizado y reivindica la drástica reducción de la violencia, organizaciones de derechos humanos cuestionan las detenciones y los procedimientos judiciales. ¿Dónde termina la lucha contra las pandillas y comienza el riesgo de normalizar la excepción? Lo analizamos junto a expertos en El Debate de France 24.

No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo’, confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo’ desta sexta-feira (14/08/2026): Em resposta à tarifa de 25% imposta ao País sob alegação de práticas comerciais desleais, o governo brasileiro abriu processo para aplicar a Lei de Reciprocidade contra os EUA. A Secretaria de Comunicação Social da Presidência afirmou em nota que “o Ministério das Relações Exteriores notificou o governo dos Estados Unidos sobre o início do processo e solicitando a realização de consultas diplomáticas”. Esse passo cumpre prazos e formalidades para eventual adoção de medidas tarifárias e comerciais. O governo pode aplicar contramedidas provisórias enquanto avalia medidas definitivas, mas antes terá de realizar consultas públicas com as partes. As medidas devem ser proporcionais ao impacto econômico provocado pelos EUA.

Suze takes us inside the UK's debanking inquiry. A director and co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK, she's submitting evidence to Parliament's cross-party inquiry this week, and explains what an APPG can and can't do about banks blocking lawful transactions. The numbers are staggering. The Locked Out report found roughly 40% of payments to exchanges blocked or delayed by UK banks, with one exchange reporting a billion pounds in declined transactions in a single year. All legal transactions. Even the advocates got debanked. Suze's organization goes by BPUK partly because a name containing "Bitcoin" risked losing banking services. A survey found only 14% of firms successfully opened and kept an account with one of the nine largest UK banks. Nick Neuman of Casa surprises the room with a report from inside the Coldcard response: all hands taking calls for a week, helping people rotate keys, and his estimate that far more Bitcoin moved to safety than was stolen. Why multisig held up. Neuman explains why wallets requiring multiple keys haven't been swept: attackers go after single-key wallets first, and unrevealed public keys make paired devices dramatically harder to crack. The takeaway from both hosts: upgrade to multisig. Casa has been debanked twice. When Silicon Valley Bank failed, the company's Bitcoin treasury meant it could keep operating no matter what happened to the account. His advice: keep a backup bank and self-custodied Bitcoin as a stopgap. Does Bitcoin in an ETF still count? The room digs into BlackRock lowering conversion minimums into IBIT, why the conversion mostly runs one direction, and whether Bitcoin keeps its fundamental value if real coins stop circulating. Why self-custody matters to the network, not just to you. Brady walks through the block size wars: holders running nodes are who kept Bitcoin's rules intact, and concentrated custody would hand that influence to a few large institutions. Selling freedom instead of fear. Alec raises the "sovereignty multiple," the positive case for holding your own money, and Suze describes orange-pilling her beautician by paying in Bitcoin: adoption through use, not through warnings. Lebanon, El Salvador, and Liechtenstein. Suze's reporting tour: what a country looks like after banking trust dies, holding two ideas at once about El Salvador, and a breached ownership register as the case against data honeypots.

A dos días del terremoto de magnitud 7,4 en la escala Richter, socorristas continúan sus labores sin el material adecuado. El gobierno sólo ha autorizado la entrada de ayuda económica.  Este miércoles se cumplen 48 horas del terremoto que cimbró Colombia el pasado lunes alrededor de las 7:40 mañana en la costa occidental, por lo que se reducen las posibilidades de encontrar sobrevivientes.  En medio de los escombros, una mano levantada, basta para que todos se detengan.   “Para todos los que están llegando, cuando se levante la mano es porque se está pidiendo silencio. Quédense quietos, no se muevan”, se escucha por altavoces.  El silencio permite detectar cualquier señal que pueda orientar la búsqueda, como lo relata Luis Eduardo Vélez, quien llegó como voluntario para apoyar las labores de rescate.  “Se han escuchado bullas de gente que se queja adentro. Entonces, ése es el desespero de la gente de querer ayudar, pero que lo mejor de querer ayudar es haciendo silencio”.  Luis Eduardo Vélez cuenta que junto a otros voluntarios, también ha ayudado a retirar parte del material que cubre la zona. Y han tenido la buena noticia de haber logrado el rescate de sobrevivientes en el colegio Bautista de Cali.  “Acabamos de rescatar anoche a tres niños; todavía hay niños allá, y aquí hay como unas seis o siete personas, entonces estamos bregando hacer silencio para poder escucharlos y para poder ingresar, porque tenemos solamente dos horas que nos prestaron la grúa para poder tomarnos las plaquetas más pesadas que hay”.  Mientras unos trabajan entre los escombros, otros sostienen la atención desde los centros de acopio.   Ana Cristina Martínez es una de las voluntarias que se sumó a esta labor y relata el rescate de dos personas, padre e hijo, al tiempo de hacer hincapié en la urgencia de material para que los voluntarios puedan hacer su labor.  “¿Y, qué se requiere para estos voluntarios? El apoyo de diversas empresas, personas que se unan con el fin de brindarles a ellos los elementos de protección personal adecuados, como lo son gafas y guantes. También el tema de linternas para los trabajos nocturnos que venimos desarrollando”.  Entre golpes, instrucciones y momentos en los que todos deben callar, continúan las labores de búsqueda de la movilización de voluntarios en Cali, así como de las autoridades en busca de sobrevivientes.   Saldo de víctimas La cifra preliminar de víctimas mortales es de al menos 250, según informó la agencia Reuters apoyándose en conteos oficiales locales.  De acuerdo con la Asociación de Alcaldes, el número de heridos se sitúa en 1.600, así como una centena de edificios destruidos.  Además, continúa la falta de servicios básicos en varias comunidades indígenas de la región selvática del Pacífico, particularmente en el departamento del Chocó donde se localizó el epicentro.  Polémica sobre entrega de ayuda   Mientras la cancillería de Colombia afirma que en las próximas horas llegarán los primeros vuelos con ayuda internacional, se ha cuestionado la decisión del gobierno recién instalado de privilegiar el apoyo económico y de insumos, frente a la propuesta del envío de rescatistas como “Los Topos” de México, en horas clave para el rescate de sobrevivientes.  El propio presidente de El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, confirmó la decisión de Bogotá:  “Nos han informado que sus equipos de rescate, médicos y demás cuerpos de emergencia se encuentran desplegados y atendiendo la situación, por lo que, en este momento, no requieren apoyo de personal”.  En tanto, el embajador de China en Bogotá, Zhu Jingyang, urgió a que el gobierno colombiano acelere la coordinación interna que favorezca la entrega de apoyo internacional.  “Esperamos que el gobierno colombiano dé a conocer de inmediato el nombre del funcionario y su enlace oficial para coordinar la asistencia internacional, a favor de los damnificados del terremoto”.  Por su parte, Christophe Moreau, presidente de la Asociación Solidarity International French Emergency, indicó que "según la información que tenemos, el gobierno está gestionando la catástrofe en general de manera adecuada y con recursos bastante considerables”. Y respecto a la ciudad de Cali, dijo tener contactos locales que le han informado que ya se "ha realizado la mayor parte del trabajo, aunque todavía quedan algunas personas bajo los escombros".   "En general, los equipos de rescate sobre el terreno están en condiciones de hacer frente al volumen del trabajo que hay que hacer con carácter de urgencia”, puntualizó.   Mientras tanto, en el Chocó la situación sigue siendo desesperante y aún no ha llegado ninguna ayuda, según informan habitantes de la zona como el maestro Irvin Cárdenas del municipio del Litoral del San Juan. "La situación es gravísima, porque nuestras viviendas han sido destruidas, la situación en el resguardo indígena es que la gente no está trabajando, se han quedado en casa, algunas familias han perdido casas. No ha llegado la alcaldía, no ha llegado la gobernación del Chocó, nadie ha llegado. No ha llegado la ayuda humanitaria, ni alimento, ni ropa y la ayuda económica tampoco. Están recogiendo información vía whatsapp, vía internet, y tampoco hay energía eléctrica". Por su parte, la presidenta de la Comisión Europea, Ursula von der Leyen, anunció este miércoles que la Unión Europea movilizará dos millones de euros en ayudas para las zonas más afectadas por el que se considera el mayor terremoto ha sufrido el país sudamericano.

You're about to hear a conversation about leadership. Today's guest, Dr. Annmarie Caño, is an expert in leadership. Dr. Caño draws on her 25-year career in higher education — and her love of Ignatian spirituality — in her work today as a writer, speaker and executive coach who helps higher education and social impact leaders enact personal and systemic change. She draws heavily on liberation theology, liberation psychology and the legacy of the Salvadoran martyrs in her work and her personal reflections. And she has a wonderful new book from Johns Hopkins University Press called “Leading Toward Liberation: How to Build Cultures of Thriving in Higher Education.” But what today's host, Eric Clayton, continues to find so compelling about his conversation with Annmarie is the fact of where they met: She attended a conference that the Jesuit Media Lab co-hosted on the Catholic imagination and speculative storying. Why? It wasn't because she's a burgeoning fantasy author — though they do talk a bit about Tolkien in today's conversation. No — she attended that conference because she sees as foundational to her mission the work of bringing to life un otro mundo posible — or an “other” possible world. Quite literally, Dr. Caño is thinking about leadership as the creation of other realities, other ways of living, and she is concerned about ensuring that everyone — particularly those often forgotten by society — have a seat at the table. As much as Eric loves talking about Middle-earth and Narnia, he was even more excited to get to talk about what it might look like to build new worlds in our actual, real lives — and to consider the real people that can helped in so doing.

How long do people have to live in America before they're considered American? How long does it take to prove themselves as productive, peaceful members of society? For millions of immigrants who have lived in the United States for decades, the answer seems to be, “never.” Immigrants without documents or with temporary status are vulnerable to exploitation by their employers and have been made scapegoats by xenophobic politicians. Patricia Campos-Medina joins host Alex Lovit to discuss how problems with the United States' immigration, labor, and democratic systems are connected—and what it will take to fix them. Patricia Campos-Medina is a scholar of race, immigration, and labor. She's the executive director of the Worker Institute at the School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University. She coauthored the 2025 book Legalized Inequalities: Immigration and Race in the Low-Wage Workplace. https://www.ilr.cornell.edu/worker-institute https://www.russellsage.org/publications/book/legalized-inequalities Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Nigel Farage is trying to seize the summer agenda with a new crackdown on crime and immigration. Reform wants to send foreign national prisoners to countries such as El Salvador, deploy the Navy in the Channel and leave the ECHR – but how much of the plan could actually work?Meanwhile, hopes of a reconciliation between Reform and Rupert Lowe's Restore appear to be fading. Farage has ruled out a deal while Lowe remains surrounded by figures he regards as being on the extreme right. Could the continuing split ultimately play into Andy Burnham's hands?Tim Shipman speaks to Noa Hoffman.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Public health threats often seem unrelated until we examine the systems that connect them. In this episode of The Health Advocates, Steven Newmark discusses the record-breaking rise in U.S. measles cases, recent foodborne illness outbreaks, changing COVID-19 activity, and the health risks associated with wildfire smoke. Steven explains what these developments mean for patients, caregivers, and people living with chronic illness, including practical steps related to vaccination, food recalls, testing, treatment planning, and air quality. He also examines the larger forces shaping these stories, including declining vaccine confidence, gaps in public health communication, and the importance of strong disease surveillance. The episode also highlights encouraging news, including progress toward a new Ebola vaccine and El Salvador’s elimination of trachoma as a public health problem. Together, these stories show what happens when public health protections weaken, and what communities can achieve when science, communication, and sustained investment work together.

A 20 años del inicio de la guerra contra el narco en México, el analista e historiador Jacques Coste conversa con Óscar Balderas en Esquina Balderas sobre la continuidad silenciosa de la militarización, el desgaste de los derechos humanos y las alternativas reales para pacificar el país. En esta entrega especial para La Saga, se analizan dos décadas de conflicto armado interno y seguridad pública militarizada, así como la estrategia iniciada en 2006 durante el gobierno de Felipe Calderón, que, de acuerdo con Coste, continúa bajo una narrativa distinta impulsada por Omar García Harfuch y el gobierno de Claudia Sheinbaum. La conversación cuestiona la idea de que la guerra contra el narcotráfico ha terminado y examina la transformación de los cárteles hacia economías extractivas y de control territorial. También se aborda el debate entre la mano dura del “modelo Bukele” en El Salvador y la necesidad de construir acuerdos de gobernabilidad local, tomando como referente el caso de Coahuila. Finalmente, Óscar Balderas y Jacques Coste reflexionan sobre el papel del lenguaje leguleyo en la invisibilización de las víctimas, la marginación de los colectivos de búsqueda y la erosión de los derechos humanos en la agenda política contemporánea de México.

Fue nombrado presidente interino de la Primera División de El Salvador, asumiendo el cargo durante un período de transición tras la salida de Samuel Gálvez. Su gestión se ha enfocado en la homologación de los estatutos de la liga con los de la FESFUT, así como en la organización administrativa y deportiva de la competición, incluyendo la planificación de la Copa Presidente y otros aspectos institucionales.

In today's episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg speak to Joshua Bonehill-Paine, the convicted anti-Semite and former far-Right activist, in his first interview since withdrawing his Tory council candidacy following a backlash over his selection.Camilla challenges Bonehill-Paine on his rehabilitation and subsequent work in counter-extremism after being convicted in 2016 of the racially-aggravated harassment of Luciana Berger, the Labour peer. Sir Jacob offers him a direct opportunity to apologise to Baroness Berger, which he accepts, acknowledging that his past behaviour was “disgusting” and “truly awful”. He also defends his role advising the Conservatives on tackling anti-Semitism.Camilla and Sir Jacob also discuss Reform UK's pledge to deport all foreign nationals from British prisons to countries such as El Salvador to free up space.We want to hear from you!

Would you sell everything and move to El Salvador, or is that just a Bitcoin fantasy? The founders of Build in El Salvador (@BuildInES) reveal why Bitcoin expats thrive or quit. In this episode, Mike Peterson sits down with Michael Ruiz and Luis Esparragoza, whose community helps startup founders and Bitcoiners relocate, connect, and build businesses in one of the most talked-about emerging markets in the world. Plenty of Bitcoiners arrive full of excitement, and some pack up and leave within months. This conversation digs into why, and what separates the ones who stay.The episode opens with a story most people only saw from the outside. Michael's former business partner at Sovereignty Studios gave up everything to move to El Salvador, hit a wall, and left with a viral rant so heated that President @nayibbukele himself responded. Michael shares what really happened behind that public exit, why he calls it a genuine loss of talent for the country, and how watching a friend rage quit shaped everything he built afterward.That "everything" became Build in El Salvador, which started as a humble Substack where Michael and Luis interviewed local entrepreneurs, including one who changed his name to Papusa, bought a million dollar passport, and now farms avocados in Santa Ana. The writing grew into a community of over 100 entrepreneurs connected through masterminds, roundtables, and a WhatsApp group, a business networking layer for the whole expat scene. When one member sliced his eye with a saw, the local community had a trusted doctor recommendation in his hands within a minute. That kind of support is what keeps talent in the country when things get hard.Michael and Luis are also brutally honest about who should stay home. El Salvador has huge first mover advantages, and it also has rough edges, language barriers, and antiquated systems that will break you if you arrive expecting Dubai. Thriving there takes a specific entrepreneur mindset: a low time preference, a willingness to build through discomfort, and the humility to ask a community for help. If your plan is margaritas on the beach while the opportunity finds you, this episode will probably talk you out of the move, and that might be the most valuable thing it does.The conversation closes with two developments worth knowing about. El Salvador residency rules changed in 2026, and temporary residents now need only 90 days per year in the country instead of nine months, a huge shift for podcasters, founders, and anyone who travels for work. And the guests recap the SovAI Summit, where about 25 Build in El Salvador members attended and Michael interviewed speakers at the National Palace as the country positions itself as a first mover in sovereign AI.If this episode helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who keeps threatening to move, and tell us in the comments: would you get on the one-way ticket?—Bitcoin Beach TeamLearn more about Build in El Salvador:Website: https://buildinelsalvador.comTwitter/X: https://x.com/BuildInESYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BuildinelsalvadorSubstack: https://buildinelsalvador.substack.comSkool community (free): https://www.skool.com/build-in-el-salvador-2170/aboutSupport and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com STAY AT BITCOIN BEACH: https://www.stayatbitcoinbeach.com/punta-mango-villasBrowse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 Intro01:21 What happened to Sovereignty Studios in El Salvador?03:38 Why do Bitcoiners leave El Salvador and did Bukele really respond to that viral rant?08:01 Should I move to El Salvador or is it overhyped?09:20 What is Build in El Salvador and how do I join the community?14:00 What is it like moving to El Salvador as a Latin American Bitcoiner?17:16 How do Bitcoin entrepreneurs find their tribe in El Salvador?22:19 How does the expat community in El Salvador help when things go wrong?27:07 What changed about El Salvador residency rules in 2026?33:53 What happened at the SovAI Summit at the National Palace? Live From Bitcoin Beach

Hello and Welcome to the DX Corner for your weekly Dose of DX. I'm Bill, AJ8B.The following DX information comes from Bernie, W3UR, editor of the DailyDX, the WeeklyDX, and the How's DX column in QST. If you would like a free 2-week trial of the DailyDX, your only source of real-time DX information, just drop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.comLike many of you, I am an avid CQ DX Marathon participant. To help identify those stations that may not be rare, but also not common, I will bring it to your attention by announcing MARATHON ALERT. This will let you know that based on my experience, this activation is one that you will want to make part of your Marathon Chase! Let's get started.{Marathon Alert} OH0 – Aland Islands - OH0ERF is QRV until August 12, by a group of German hams operating holiday style. They are operating all bands from 160 m through 10 m, using CW, SSB, and FT8, with 6 m added as conditions allow. The equipment includes an IC-7610, two IC-7300 transceivers, and an ACOM 700S amplifier. {Marathon Alert} R1FJ – Franz Jozef Land - R7AL, Vasily, and his team should be QRV around August 15 for 15 days. Five hundred kilograms of gear is already in Murmansk, their departure point, with the ops bringing another 300 kg.{Marathon Alert} E5/S – South Cook Islands - ZL2KE, Steve, is QRV as E51KEE from the South Cook Islands until August 14th, mainly on CW with some SSB, likely focusing on 30 and 40 meters unless propagation improves. Another Steve, ZL4CZ, is QRV as E51CZZ until August 6th on SSB. Neither operator is using FT8 or other digital modes. {Marathon Alert} TU – Ivory Coast - F5HPE, Fredy, is underway to the Ivory Coast, where he has the TU5MM callsign. He will be joining TU5JZ, Mathruin. Fredy expects to be there until August 22nd , operating from the Motobé Radio Club on 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10M SSB and FT8.{Marathon Alert} OJ0 - Märket Reef - OH6BG says a DXpedition is coming up August 15-22, with OJ0JR, Henri; and OJ0YL, Anne. He points out that the reef is the most exposed location in the Baltic Sea, “more rock than island, more sea than shelter.” To be dealt with before the first QSO is made is the weather, landing conditions, antennas, power and constant wind and waves, he says. They plan 80-10 CW, SSB and FT8.{Marathon Alert} YS – El Salvador - WE9G, Rikk, is QRV as YS/WE9G from El Sunzal, El Salvador, until August 14th. He will primarily use FT8, with some CW and SSB, on 6–160 meters using an SO3R setup, two vertical antennas, and a G5RV dipole. QSOs will be uploaded in real time to Club Log, QRZ, and LoTW, with QSL available via WE9G or Club Log OQRS.Contest Updates  August starts the contest season for me with two contests kicking things off. First is the Ohio QSO Party. I work every minute of this and have had some good rates the past few years. However, I have also been kicked off the air by lightning 3 of the last 4 years so I am hoping for good weather. I finished 7th overall in Ohio last year and #1 in Warren County. I could use your help if you are around the weekend of August 22nd. The contest period runs from 1200 EDT noon in Ohio (1600Z) to Midnight on the 22nd (0400Z Sunday).Secondly is the CQWW RTTY contest. This is the weekend of September 26th and 27th. This contest typically draws over 15,000 participants with over 3,600 logs submitted. If you can operate FT8, you can operate RTTY. Why not give it a try?

“MK Confidential" opens in a hotel lobby in Annapolis, Maryland, in July of 2016. A sliding glass door closes on a golden retriever named Buddy, and a stranger gathers the animal up and carries him inside. He tells the dog's owner his name is Phoenix. Over the next few days he tells her the rest — twenty years in prison, and still capable of doing horrific things when prompted. She gets frightened enough to start recording their conversations. By the time she stops, she has seven hours of a career criminal named Armando Morales, the witness who sent Ingmar Guandique to prison for sixty years for the murder of Chandra Levy. Megyn Kelly lays out how the murder conviction comes apart. On the stand, Morales swore he had never been an informant. Sitting in the government's own files was a letter proving otherwise — a document the prosecution never turned over, and the defense was entitled to have. A judge vacates the conviction and orders a new trial. Then, the tapes surface, and the government's star witness sounds nothing like the reformed man the jury voted to trust. On July 28th, 2016, prosecutors drop the murder charge. Guandique is deported to El Salvador, and disappears. A dismissal is not an acquittal, and it is not an exoneration. Megyn walks through what the evidence still shows, and what has never fit — the rough horse trail where Chandra's family says she would never have run, the workout shoes still sitting in her apartment, an unidentified man's DNA on her clothing, her missing keys and pinkie ring, never found. Chandra's aunt never believed Guandique killed her; neither did the family's private eye. In time, even Bob and Susan Levy stopped being sure. Twenty-five years after their daughter walked out of her apartment, the murder of Chandra Levy is, in the eyes of the law, unsolved. Her parents find consolation in ladybugs, the source of Chandra's childhood nickname, which find them wherever they go, exploring the world in honor of the daughter who left so much of it unseen. This is Episode 5, and the conclusion of the Chandra Levy story.

Today, Les, John, and special guest Carlos Ruiz-Hernandez—former Panamanian Deputy Secretary of State—assess the Trump administration's renewed push for dominance in the Western Hemisphere and what it means for a region already in political upheaval. The so-called "Donroe Doctrine" has reactivated a hemispheric hierarchy dormant since the Cold War, with Washington deploying military pressure, sanctions, and diplomatic muscle from Panama to Venezuela to Cuba. Against this backdrop, Latin America itself is experiencing a historic rightward swing, driven by public disillusionment with governments that failed to deliver on crime, economic stability, and public safety.Is the United States rebuilding a hierarchy built for coercion, or one that can actually last? How influential are the political experiments in Argentina and El Salvador in driving the region's political momentum, and what does Trump add to that equation? Does Secretary Rubio's credibility in the region give Washington the leverage it needs to realign Latin American governments towards its goals?

g1 e GloboNews começam a primeira série de entrevistas do jornalismo da Globo nas eleições deste ano. Romeu Zema, candidato pelo partido Novo, foi entrevistado nesta quinta-feira (6). Candidato pelo partido Novo, Romeu Zema afirmou que, caso fosse presidente do país, retaliaria os Estados Unidos diante das tarifas impostas ao Brasil: “Certamente [iria retaliar]. E vou falar: ‘Pera aí. Tudo tem limites'”. Chamou também Donald Trump, presidente americano, de “imprevisível” e “fanfarrão”. No campo da economia, prometeu que tentará promover um “choque” na área fiscal e privatizar “tudo”: “A começar pela Petrobras. Vamos fazer uma reforma administrativa e uma reforma previdenciária", afirmou. Zema também disse que se inspira no modelo de segurança adotado pelo presidente de El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, mas rejeitou aplicar no Brasil medidas implementadas pelo salvadorenho, como prisões baseadas em denúncias anônimas e prisões sem mandados. O ex-governador de Minas Gerais também afirmou ter ficado "surpreso e decepcionado" com as suspeitas de fraudes em licenciamentos ambientais investigadas durante a gestão dele. Aos 61 anos, Romeu Zema concorre à Presidência pela primeira vez. A entrevista com Natuza Nery e Andréia Sadi foi transmitida ao vivo pelo g1 e pela GloboNews na tarde de quinta-feira (6) e publicada na íntegra como episódio especial do Assunto. Foram chamados para a série de entrevistas os cinco candidatos com melhor pontuação na última pesquisa Datafolha. Renan Santos, candidato pelo partido Missão, foi entrevistado na quarta-feira (6). Ronaldo Caiado, candidato pelo PSD, será entrevistado na sexta-feira (7). A entrevista de Flávio Bolsonaro, candidato pelo PL, está marcada para segunda-feira (10), mas ele ainda não confirmou presença. Lula, candidato à reeleição pelo PT, foi convidado, mas sua assessoria de imprensa informou que ele optou por não participar.

Zoe Sankey sits down with Crémieux (the pen name of researcher Jordan Lasker), the formerly anonymous X writer-researcher whose data threads on genetics, demographics and metabolic drugs have drawn a following of more than 260,000 — including some very prominent readers. It's a wide-ranging conversation. They cover collapsing fertility rates and the Victorian obscenity trial he argues helped set them falling; his case that dog breeds — pit bulls especially — behave the way they were bred to, and why he thinks people resist that; what he makes of the evidence on GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and retatrutide, microplastics, and the wellness industry; El Salvador's transformation under Nayib Bukele; IQ testing, genetics and embryo selection; populism, personality and politics; free will; and being Jewish and atheist at once. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 Intro — who Crémieux is and how he built his following 02:24 Fertility collapse and the Bradlaugh–Besant trial 05:00 Silphium, abortion and the long human history of family planning 06:00 Strong convictions, and why he wants to live forever 07:49 Brian Johnson, longevity and the wellness-hype problem 10:56 Microplastics: what the evidence actually shows 13:24 Zinc, Accutane and the biology of acne 18:08 Ivermectin, Demodex mites and skin 20:22 Pet rats, lab rats, and which animals we call "cute" 22:56 UFOs and the Trump-era document releases 25:11 Pit bulls: breeding, behaviour and public denial 30:06 Ira Glass, greyhounds and virtue-signal dog ownership 34:11 GLP-1 drugs: Ozempic, retatrutide and the medical turnaround 36:00 His own weight loss, muscle and travel-for-work 37:57 Próspera, El Salvador and Bukele's gang crackdown 42:49 Duterte, Hanania's Kakistocracy and populism 45:42 IQ, classical liberalism and organising society 47:12 China, dumping, open-source AI and pharmaceutical free-riding 50:36 Tariffs and the destination-based cash flow tax 51:49 Hope, ageing, and the generational wealth question 55:14 Truth-seeking, reform, and why people don't change their minds 56:46 Jewishness, identity and defining who counts as a Jew 59:11 Antisemitism, zero-sum thinking and its long tradition 1:01:05 The future of Israel and the Hilonim birth rate 1:04:04 IQ tests, Mensa and gaming the matrices 1:05:27 Embryo selection and raising smart kids 1:08:36 Nature, nurture and what mothers influence 1:09:20 Politics shaping personality — and the La Piere study 1:14:30 The Big Five, intelligence and conscientiousness 1:18:14 Free will: Pinker vs. Harris 1:20:38 The name "Crémieux" and Adolphe Crémieux 1:21:59 Wrap-up —

g1 e GloboNews começam a primeira série de entrevistas do jornalismo da Globo nas eleições deste ano. Renan Santos, candidato pelo partido Missão, foi entrevistado nesta quarta-feira (5). Candidato pelo partido Missão, Renan Santos afirmou que, caso seja eleito presidente, não cumprirá decisões monocráticas do STF: "Se o Supremo Tribunal Federal tomar uma decisão ilegal, decisão ilegal não se cumpre. Ponto". Ele também disse que aceitaria negociar e compor seu eventual governo com o Centrão, mas reforçou o uso do termo “parasitas” para chamar parlamentares que integram o bloco. Renan buscou explicar um dos slogans de sua campanha e disse que a frase “prendeu, matou” pode ter interpretação confusa, mas que se trata de um recado político de que irá enfrentar de maneira “dura” o crime – ele falou mais uma vez que sua inspiração nesta pauta é o presidente de El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, mas ponderou a necessidade de adaptar o bukelismo à realidade brasileira: “Eu não sou Bukele”, afirmou. Na economia, o candidato afirmou que o Brasil vive um “drama fiscal” e propôs medidas como a desindexação do salário-mínimo com a Previdência. Aos 42 anos, Renan Santos concorre à Presidência pela primeira vez. A entrevista com Natuza Nery e Andréia Sadi foi transmitida ao vivo pelo g1 e pela GloboNews na tarde de quarta-feira (5) e publicada na íntegra como episódio especial do Assunto.

On this episode of the STL Bucket List Show, we sit down with Gesler and Chloe Joya, the husband-and-wife team behind Casero — the Salvadoran food truck that's become one of St. Charles County's most talked-about bites, one carne asada plate at a time.Their story starts with nothing. After Gesler lost his dream job during an immigration process and was sent back to St. Louis, the couple moved into an empty apartment with no furniture, no jobs, and only a couple of borrowed forks. With Gesler unable to legally work but able to cook, and Chloe able to legally own a business, they bet everything on the one recipe he knew by heart — his mom's carne asada from El Salvador — and started selling it out of the Ballpark Village dog park with a borrowed grill and tent. From there it was a failed homemade trailer, a hand-painted Penske truck shipped in from out of state, run-ins with the health department, and years of prepping in borrowed kitchens at 4:30 in the morning before Casero became the truck people now line up for.The conversation covers what it actually took to get there: the human side of food truck hospitality, sourcing from Orlando's and local farmers instead of distributors, the community of St. Louis restaurant owners — Elliot, Lauren, Balkan Treat Box's Loryn and Edo — who mentored them along the way, and the couple's refusal to raise prices or cut corners even as demand exploded. They dig into the chaos of selling out of handmade tortillas in 30 minutes flat, their faith as the driving force behind every turning point, and the brick-and-mortar restaurant they're now building toward — one with its own prep kitchen, its own tortillas, and its own walk-in cooler.It's a conversation about betting everything on a single recipe, staying ethical when it would be easier not to, and what happens when a community decides to root for you.They discuss: • Losing a dream job to immigration issues and starting over with an empty apartment • Betting everything on one carne asada recipe from Gesler's mom in El Salvador • Selling out of the Ballpark Village dog park with a borrowed grill and tent • The night the line wrapped around Ballpark Village and GM Marcus jumped in to help • A failed homemade food trailer and the hand-painted Penske truck that followed • Constant run-ins with the health department before doing it "the right way" • The relentless persistence it took to get a spot at Frankie Martin's • Sourcing meat, produce, and now local chicken from Orlando's, El Morelia's, and Maninos • Faith, getting the truck blessed, and God's timing through years of failed attempts • Selling out of handmade tortillas in 30 minutes and the scramble to keep up with demand • Mentorship from Balkan Treat Box's Loryn and Edo and St. Louis's uniquely supportive food scene • Their "we don't want buts" philosophy and refusing to raise prices to chase profit • Building content and storytelling around the truck instead of traditional advertising • The brick-and-mortar restaurant dream — their own prep kitchen, walk-in cooler, and tortillasSupport the show

Would you trust Bitcoin and a Lightning Network digital wallet to rebuild your life in El Salvador after COVID destroyed your business and the banks turned away? Kevin Ayala (@KevinAyala24) did, and that choice runs through his whole story. He grew up training as a violinist in El Salvador's national orchestra, and he first heard about Bitcoin in 2009 from a high school teacher. He didn't have a credit card or access to an exchange, so he walked away from it more than once over the next decade, a reminder of how much friction used to stand between a person and true self-custody.Then COVID hit. Kevin had just opened a computer and phone repair shop backed by a $30,000 family bank loan, and the lockdown shut it down within three months. He talks openly about carrying that debt with no income coming in, and about his parents refusing to make him feel guilty for it. The traditional financial system had given him a loan, but no way to keep earning against it once the doors closed.Bitcoin is what got him back on his feet, and it happened outside the banking system entirely. Kevin started earning small amounts through freelance design and repair work, paid directly over the Lightning Network. He found the Bitcoin Beach Wallet, ran his own Lightning node, and built a habit of stacking sats one gig at a time in El Zonte, the town where this circular economy took root before most of the world had heard of it. A digital wallet with no bank attached became his entire income, and a crash course in financial literacy along the way.From there, Kevin gets into teaching at the House of Bitcoin, co-founding Asobitcoin, and joining 40 Acres, an OTC desk for businesses named after a broken 19th century government promise. The 40 acres and a mule were taken back from the people who earned them. Bitcoin can't be taken back the same way. He talks about financial literacy spreading through El Zonte neighbor to neighbor, and how that kind of grassroots community building is the actual mechanism behind a working circular Bitcoin economy.The episode closes with Kevin's current role as CEO of Blink Wallet for El Salvador, and this is where it gets uncomfortable for anyone who assumes legal tender status solved everything. He explains why Blink got debanked, what Stablesats actually is under the hood, and why regulators keep confusing sound tech innovation built on Bitcoin with the kind of risk they're used to policing. Kevin's stacking, building, and helping the next person do the same in a country where the banks still haven't caught up to the law.

Simon Dixon is an investor, geopolitical and financial analyst and certified Bitcoin OG: he was evangelising it at $3, and went on to advise El Salvador's President Bukele on his Bitcoin bonds. A former investment banker, Simon has spent 26 years trying to answer his dad's question: 'Son, what happened to my money?' The search took him from market-making on the London Stock Exchange, via a doomed attempt to found an honest bank (the Bank of England said no), to uncovering what he calls the Financial Industrial Complex: the web of central banks, asset managers and spooks that sits above governments and funds both sides of every war. On the ledger: who really owns the Bank of England?; politicians as 'paid-for-rent prostitutes' and how Liz Truss got rug-pulled; was Bitcoin a banker plot, and was Satoshi really a cypherpunk who died a month after the CIA came knocking?; why Wall Street wants your Bitcoin in an ETF, not your pocket; how the CIA invented the term 'conspiracy theorist'; Epstein as just one blackmail operation among many; James's confession about what he actually bought with his first Bitcoin; and lots more.

Los partidos tradicionales ARENA y FMLN presentan a Mayteé Iraheta y Rafael Aguirre, respectivamente, como sus candidatos para las elecciones presidenciales de 2027, en las que se verán las caras con el favorito para ganar, Nayib Bukele. El Salvador empieza a definir el escenario para las próximas elecciones presidenciales de 2027. Mientras Nayib Bukele busca un tercer mandato, autorizado tras las reformas impulsadas, los dos partidos tradicionales han presentado a sus candidatos: Mayteé Iraheta por la derecha de ARENA y Rafael Aguirre por la izquierda FMLN. La incógnita es si estas candidaturas representan una alternativa real frente a un presidente que mantiene supuestos altos niveles de popularidad y un amplio control institucional. "El caso salvadoreño, donde tenemos la construcción de una opoficción que permite, contrario a lo que uno podría imaginar, consolidar la permanencia de alguien que está buscando perpetuación en el poder, sin violar la ley" - Eric Lemus, analista político salvadoreño Eric Lemus, analista político salvadoreño en el exilio, nos responde: "Por un lado, hay que apostar por un rostro femenino que conecte con la televisión y que tal vez pueda tener un rédito, y por el otro se está apostando por la figura clásica del sindicalismo, que fue muy beligerante en los años 80". Lemus añade: "Me parece que son dos salvavidas naturales a los que, por un lado, apuesta la ex derecha radical y, por otro lado, la izquierda, que obviamente han tenido sus momentos de gobierno y les ha sentado muy mal". ¿Oposición real u opoficción? La designación busca renovar la imagen de dos partidos que durante décadas dominaron la política salvadoreña, pero que hoy llegan debilitados, aunque para Lemus, más que frágiles, se trata de una opoficción.  Leer tambiénDenuncian cientos de muertes y miles de arrestos arbitrarios en las cárceles de Bukele "El caso salvadoreño, donde tenemos la construcción de una opoficción que permite, contrario a lo que uno podría imaginar, consolidar la permanencia de alguien que está buscando perpetuación en el poder, sin violar la ley". Más allá de los nombres, los analistas coinciden en que el desafío para la oposición no es únicamente electoral; deberán competir contra una narrativa perfectamente trazada.   Leer tambiénEl Salvador: Ruth López, abogada y crítica de Bukele, cumple un año encarcelada sin juicio "Él mismo se autodenominó un dictador cool, ¿verdad? Es decir, alguien que es autoritario, que pasa por encima de toda la ley, pero que cumple con las formas que demanda la ley", explica el analista. Lemus argumenta que hay que hacer "notar que el código electoral ha sido pisoteado, que el Tribunal Supremo Electoral, que antes tenía representatividad, pues ahora está cooptado también por el Partido Nuevas Ideas y personas afines". A siete meses de las elecciones, la oposición tiene como reto convencer a un electorado que, según las encuestas, sigue respaldando mayoritariamente el modelo de seguridad y el liderazgo de Nayib Bukele.

We heard from a special guest from El Salvador, Pastor Veronica Del Cid Martinez about what it means to give our lives away.

Should families in El Zonte, El Salvador who've never owned anything pay their mortgage in Bitcoin, or does charity work better when it's free? New Story bet on the mortgage, and 122 families are about to become homeowners because of it. Mike Peterson sits down with Renato Salazar (@HolaIAmRenato) to talk about the project turning some of the most expensive land in El Salvador into first-time property ownership for families who've been living in shacks and on land they don't own.Renato explains why charging a small mortgage beats giving homes away. Paying every month builds financial education, and once families hit a payment, they start thinking about a motorcycle or a small pupuseria next to the house. The nonprofit has built almost 1,000 homes in El Salvador, and the pattern repeats: homeownership turns new neighbors into a community with its own local economy, and owning land in El Zonte means these families can build generational wealth for the first time.The payment rails are where maxis will lean in. Families scan a QR code from their phone or a K1 Bitcoin ATM and pay using tools built by Salvadoran companies Tianki and Blink, with WhatsApp notifications and a dashboard that shows New Story who's falling behind so they can help. Many of these families are learning to use email for the first time, so the project is driving a digital transformation in a community that started with voice notes.Then the conversation turns to legacy banking in Bitcoin country. A banker told Renato that any company with Bitcoin in its name goes to the blacklist, credit card payments stack up to 12% in fees while the Bitcoin page cost cents to run, and you still can't pay payroll taxes in Bitcoin in the nation that made it legal tender. They close with Stay at Bitcoin Beach, the vacation rentals running on a Bitcoin standard anyway: Punta Mango Villas open seven months and orange-pilling curious guests, plus the new Bitcoin Beach Suites in El Zonte, walking distance from the beach and priced for Bitcoiners who'd rather stack sats than splurge.If this episode made you want to pay a mortgage by scanning a QR code, or at least book a surf trip, subscribe, share it with a friend, and drop a comment.

Convidado: Thomas Traumann, comentarista da Globonews e colunista do Jornal O Globo. Na segunda-feira (20), Renan Santos foi oficializado como candidato à Presidência da República pelo Missão, partido que nasceu a partir do MBL (Movimento Brasil Livre) e que recebeu a chancela do TSE apenas em novembro de 2025. Ele foi um dos fundadores do MBL em 2014 e liderou o movimento em seus momentos mais emblemáticos: nas convocações para defender o impeachment de Dilma Rousseff, em 2016, no apoio a Jair Bolsonaro na eleição de 2018 e no posterior rompimento com o ex-presidente enquanto ele ainda ocupava o Palácio do Planalto. Em sua pré-campanha, Renan aumentou sua exposição nas redes sociais e buscou se apresentar como o candidato que é ao mesmo tempo anti-Lula e anti-Flávio Bolsonaro – com ideias e propostas inspiradas em Javier Milei, presidente da Argentina, e em Nayib Bukele, presidente de El Salvador. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery conversa com Thomas Traumann sobre a candidatura de Renan Santos. Thomas descreve a trajetória do candidato e as ideias que compõem o programa do Missão.

Last week, the US Defence Secretary announced a new policy that will require US military personnel to undergo annual screening for testosterone deficiency, however some health experts have expressed concerns that this program could have negative effects. Claudia Hammond speaks with Gary Wittert, professor of medicine at Adelaide University and consultant endocrinologist at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, to understand more about testosterone and what hormone replacement therapy can do to the body. Many babies receive a vitamin K shot after birth to prevent internal bleeding, but recently more parents are declining this potentially life-saving treatment. Dr Matthew Fox, Professor of Epidemiology and Global Health at Boston University, joins Claudia to explain what is driving this trend, and the evidence behind the jab.Professor Rebecca Katz from Georgetown University in Washington DC and Director of the Health Security Operations Center has been monitoring disease spread and public health risks during the Men's Football World Cup, and joins Claudia to share what went well and what we have learned through this monitoring process.A microscopic parasite, cyclosporiasis, is causing a gastrointestinal outbreak in the United States – Matthew and Claudia discuss the possible sources and what is being done to combat it. And, how El Salvador eliminated trachoma – the world's leading infectious cause of blindness.Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producers: Jonathan Blackwell and Georgia Christie

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-15-261904 PERSIAMichael Bernstam discusses China's "colonial" economic relationship with Russia, demanding natural gas at heavily subsidized domestic rates. Capitalizing on Russian weakness, Beijing insists Russia fund its own pipelines while China signals a shift toward supporting Ukrainian territorial integrity, effectively throwing Putin "under the bus" to pressure the West. (1)Michael Bernstam explores Houthi threats to the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, which could drive oil prices over $100 per barrel by choking global shipping. Simultaneously, Ukrainian drone strikes have crippled Russian refining capacity and shipping in the Black Sea, leading to energy rationing, electricity shortages, and potential food crises in Crimea. (2)Bob Zimmerman provides updates on SpaceX's Starship test flight and the FAA's rapid approval process. He details the deployment of version three Starlink satellites, rumors of a massive new Louisiana spaceport, and criticizes a Texaspolitician's "irrational" investigation into Elon Musk's government grants for rural internet access. (3)Bob Zimmerman explains why AI is currently inadequate for counting lunar craters, failing to meet human accuracy standards. He also highlights the discovery of a potential black hole in Omega Centauri, discusses the desolate nature of Mars's Jezero Crater, and notes the mysterious, unexplained "spokes" appearing in Saturn's rings. (4)Steve Yates analyzes the Taiwan People's Party's (TPP) historic visit to mainland China. Originally a pro-identity youth movement, the TPP is now seeking political power through a coalition with the pro-China KMT. This shift complicates Taiwan's political landscape, as the younger demographic overwhelmingly identifies as Taiwanese, not Chinese. (5)Cleo Paskal exposes Chinese cognitive warfare in the Solomon Islands, where identical pro-Beijing propaganda appeared in separate newspapers. She details China's aggressive pressure on Palau, utilizing economic threats, triad activity, and cyberattacks to force the nation to de-recognize Taiwan before an upcoming regional forum in late August. (6)Charles Burton discusses the strained Canada-US relations regarding the Gordie Howe Bridge. Disagreements over ownership and revenue sharing led Donald Trump to claim a "victory" by coercing Canadian concessions. This dispute has fueled hostility in Canada, leading to a boycott of US travel and alcohol imports in Ontario. (7)Charles Burton criticizes the lack of transparency regarding Chinese infiltration in the Canadian government. He argues that Prime Minister Carney's administration prioritizes business interests over national sovereignty, ignoring warnings about espionage and transnational repression while pursuing empty promises of doubled trade from Beijing to counter US tariffs. (8)Evan Ellis reports on the collapse of Cuba's electric grid, marking the third major blackout in nine days. While the island devolves into ruin, the Trump administration weighs military action against potential negotiations with the Castrofamily, as China and Russia provide only minimal, symbolic economic and political support. (9)Evan Ellis details the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela following twin earthquakes. While US Southern Commandprovides tactical aid, the corrupt and inefficient Rodriguez government is unable to respond to massive destruction, including thousands of deaths and ruined infrastructure. The situation highlights the inadequacy of the current Venezuelan regime. (10)Evan Ellis examines political instability in Bolivia involving Evo Morales and the upcoming inauguration of Keiko Fujimori in Peru. He also notes unresolved tensions over the Falkland Islands as Argentina faces Britain in the World Cup, emphasizing Javier Milei's strategic shift toward collaboration with the United States. (11)Evan Ellis analyzes judicial cruelty in Brazil, where Flavio Bolsonaro is barred from visiting his ill father. In El Salvador, President Bukele is seeking an unconstitutional third term. Despite his high approval ratings and security successes, the move raises alarms about the global trend of abandoning democratic constraints. (12)Thaddeus McCotter reflects on the death of Senator Lindsey Graham and the rising global pattern of political violence, including the murder of a UK MP. He also addresses credible Iranian threats to assassinate the US President, suggesting that decapitation strikes against heads of state have become routine. (13)Thaddeus McCotter connects global energy prices to military strategy, noting how Ukrainian drone strikes on Russianrefineries impact domestic affordability. He warns that the Republican party must clarify objectives in Iran and Ukraineto address MAGA base concerns regarding "forever wars" before the upcoming midterm elections. (14)Judy Dempsey discusses the US naval blockade of Iran and European concerns over energy security. She argues that European leaders find Trump's policies unpredictable and emphasizes that the future must be built on transparency, democracy, and accountability to counter the rise of authoritarian models like communist China. (15)Judy Dempsey highlights increasing threats against European politicians, particularly in Germany from the far-right AfD. Despite the current prominence of "strong men," she maintains that authoritarian systems are unsustainable because the human spirit fundamentally requires freedom, which dictatorships cannot provide or permit in the long term. (16)Headers and affiliations omitted, tail numbers (1)–(16). Corrections applied: Thaddeus McCotter (source had Thaddius), Cleo Paskal (source had Pascal), Omega Centauri (source had Centuri), and Jezero Crater (source had Jazero).

Mary and Andrew start with a deeper dive into the Supreme Court's decision to allow the removal of Temporary Protected Status designations from over 330,000 immigrants from Haiti and Syria — a consequential ruling that affects TPS holders well beyond those who brought the case, leaving over a million people vulnerable to removal. As Andrew notes, this case was based on two claims: one being a statutory challenge that DHS didn't follow the procedures set out by Congress, and the other a constitutional equal protection claim that this TPS status removal was “motivated in part by race” — both of which were struck down 6-3. Then, a look at Trump's latest retribution efforts including the heavy sentences doled out over a protest that ended in a shooting outside the ICE Prairieland Detention Center inTexas one year ago; a felony indictment of former Olympian David Hearn for allegedly tearing part of the liner of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool; and former CIA Director John Brennan going on offense to challenge the DOJ's investigation into him. Plus, Mary and Andrew analyze the DOJ's response to a “show cause” order to unredact some of the Epstein files in a lawsuit filed by journalist Katie Phang.
