Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to visit the White House on Monday, July 7. This comes just over a week after Israel's 12-day war against the Iranian regime. The war also included, of course, a round of American strikes on Iran's three key nuclear facilities. Prime Minister Netanyahu spent his entire political career warning of the existential threat posed by Iran's nuclear program, and he is now largely being credited — even by domestic critics — with its destruction. As the post-Iran War geopolitical map is being drawn, we wonder, what could be Netanyahu's next moves in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria. Saudi Arabia, and domestically, in Israel?To discuss this we are joined by Israeli author and journalist Ari Shavit.

U.S. Military Strike on Iran: The episode centers around a recent U.S. military strike that reportedly devastated Iran’s nuclear capabilities, setting the program back by years. The hosts argue that this action was necessary to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and praise President Trump’s leadership in authorizing the strike. Criticism of the Left and Media: The conversation includes strong criticism of Democrats, liberal ideology, and mainstream media outlets (e.g., CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times), accusing them of downplaying the success of the strike and sympathizing with Iran. The hosts argue that liberal logic is inconsistent, especially when it comes to foreign policy and national security. Iran’s Role in Global Terrorism: Iran is portrayed as the primary state sponsor of terrorism, funding groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. The episode discusses Iran’s alleged attempts to assassinate Donald Trump and its broader hostility toward the U.S. and Israel. UN and International Response: The United Nations and its Secretary-General are heavily criticized for condemning the U.S. strike, with the hosts mocking the UN’s stance and questioning its legitimacy. Internal GOP Debate: Cruz and Ferguson highlight a divide within the Republican Party, between those advocating for a strong global stance and those favoring isolationism. They criticize figures like Tucker Carlson for opposing the strike and accuse them of spreading misinformation. Peace Through Strength Doctrine: The hosts emphasize the idea that military strength leads to peace, contrasting Trump’s decisive action with what they describe as the appeasement strategies of Obama and Biden.

Celebrity romances have always captured the public's imagination, playing out like soap operas seized upon by fans and tabloids alike. By the same token, high-profile trials can take over the mainstream media cycle, with both news pundits and the public picking over every detail to predict outcomes and cast their own judgements. Enter the union, dissolution, and hostile legal battle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard-where these dual obsessions collided in a chaotic moment of true cultural fixation.Hollywood Vampires offers an inside account of one of the most controversial and consequential celebrity scandals of the internet era. Fueled by viral clips, reaction videos, and endless online debates, the trial became more than a legal battle. It became a public spectacle, dividing audiences worldwide. Kelly Loudenberg and Makiko Wholey were documentarians and journalists on the ground for the Depp vs Heard trial. Having closely followed both Johnny, Amber, and their camps, they spent years leading up to and following the trial, interviewing the couple's closest allies as well as their managers, lawyers, agents, business associates, publicists, assistants, and personal staff. Culled from their reporting in Fairfax, Virginia, as well as over 50 hours of exclusive video footage, Hollywood Vampires is a lucid, inside-the-room account that reveals a story the world thinks it knows in an entirely new light."Over the seven weeks we spent covering the trial, we came to a profound realization: unraveling the complexity, nuance, and cultural significance of the story required the depth and breadth that only a book could provide. What started as a traditional documentary transformed into a literary investigation that allowed us to spend several years conducting extensive interviews and performing meticulous research on the multifaceted characters and narratives that intersected in this case. In crafting this book, we have made a sincere effort to represent all perspectives and tell a complete story. We've approached the subject matter with both journalistic integrity and narrative flair. Hollywood Vampires offers readers more than just celebrity gossip or true crime intrigue-it explores questions about power, perception, gender dynamics, and the court of public opinion in our digital age," said Loudenberg and Wholey.Turning the lens around, Hollywood Vampires questions how the Hollywood exploitation machine, strengthened by the forces of social media and legacy media alike, blurs the lines between fact and fiction, reportage and voyeurism, comedy and horror. It also explores how social media transformed a courtroom-a pillar of justice-into a source of digital mayhem where misinformation spread like wildfire. The result is a page-turning Hollywood epic full of revealing details that tell a wider tale about the celebrity-industrial complex, modern fandom, inflammatory culture wars, and contemporary feminism. With its unparalleled access and in-depth, investigative approach, Hollywood Vampires is set to join the ranks of other bestselling books like BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS by Mandy Matney, CATCH AND KILL by Ronan Farrow and ENDGAME by Omid Scobie.For readers of weighty, reported cultural narratives as well as pop-culture obsessives, this book offers a rare glimpse into the hidden machinery of Hollywood, the power plays embedded within our justice system, and the private lives of two of the biggest movie stars in the world.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Count 5 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs charges him with transporting Victim 2, referred to as "Jane," and male commercial sex workers across state lines with the intent to engage in prostitution between 2021 and 2024. Prosecutors allege that Combs orchestrated and facilitated "freak-off" events—drug-fueled sexual encounters involving male escorts—which he directed, filmed, and used to exert control over Jane. These events reportedly took place in various locations, including New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. The prosecution's claim hinges on the idea that Jane was not participating in these acts voluntarily but was instead coerced or manipulated into doing so under duress, a key aspect of the trafficking charge under federal law. If the prosecution's evidence is found to be credible, it would prove that Combs played a central role in exploiting Jane, using his power and influence to subject her to coercive circumstancesIn response, Combs' defense team contends that the interactions were consensual and part of a private, non-criminal lifestyle. They argue that Jane willingly participated in these events and that the transportation was not for the purpose of engaging her in prostitution. The defense also points to the absence of direct evidence linking the transportation to prostitution, suggesting that the charges are based on assumptions rather than concrete proof. The outcome of this count will depend on the jury's assessment of the credibility of the evidence and testimonies presented, including the context of the relationships and the nature of the events in question.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Count 4 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs charges him with transporting Victim 1, identified as Cassie Ventura, across state lines with the intent to engage her in prostitution. Prosecutors allege that between 2009 and 2018, Combs orchestrated and facilitated "freak-off" events—drug-fueled sexual encounters involving male escorts—which he directed, filmed, and used to exert control over Ventura. These events reportedly took place in various locations, including New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. The prosecution argues that Combs used his influence and resources to transport Ventura and other women to these events, where they were coerced into participating in commercial sex acts. Evidence presented includes travel records and communications that suggest the transportation was part of a broader scheme to exploit women for prostitution.In response, Combs' defense team contends that the interactions were consensual and part of a private, non-criminal lifestyle.

Count 3 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs, which charges him with sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion in relation to Victim 2, referred to as "Jane" Doe, accuses him of orchestrating and benefiting from the exploitation of this victim. The charge alleges that Combs used force, manipulation, or deceit to coerce Jane into engaging in sex acts for his benefit, potentially with the knowledge or complicity of his associates. The prosecution's claim hinges on the idea that the victim was not participating in these acts voluntarily but was instead forced or misled into doing so under duress, a key aspect of the trafficking charge under federal law. If the prosecution's evidence is found to be credible, it would prove that Combs played a central role in exploiting Jane, using his power and influence to subject her to coercive circumstances.During the trial, the government presented testimony and evidence suggesting that Combs exerted significant pressure on Jane, using both coercive tactics and the manipulation of power dynamics to force her into sexual acts. Witnesses have claimed that Combs used threats, promises of career advancement, and other forms of psychological manipulation to control Jane's actions, effectively using his position in the entertainment industry to trap her in a situation of trafficking. The defense, on the other hand, has attempted to discredit the victim's testimony, arguing that any interactions between Combs and Jane were consensual, and they are expected to continue challenging the validity of the coercion claims. With the prosecution's evidence already on the table, the key question remains whether the jury will find that the victim was truly coerced or if the defense can sway them to doubt the severity of the alleged trafficking.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In the latest episode of The Hundred Year Pivot, Demetri and I sit down with Lawrence Fossi—better known to many as Montana Skeptic—for a fearless exploration of America's fraying social fabric. From the shifting character of New York City to the cults of personality surrounding Elon Musk and Donald Trump, we dissect the cultural, political, and institutional forces eroding public trust and cohesion. With Lawrence's trademark candour, the conversation delves into the dangers of celebrity-driven populism, the fragility of democratic norms, and the deep structural imbalances threatening the US political and economic system. This is a sobering yet essential listen for anyone trying to make sense of the chaos—and looking for slivers of hope within it.

GM Alexandr Fier is a 5 time champion of Brazil and 9 time chess Olympian. He also recently qualified for the FIDE World Cup for the 8th time by finishing tied for first at the American Continental tournament. But aside from all of his impressive accomplishments, what interests me most about GM Fier is how frequently he competes.  Last year alone, he played nearly 200 classical games,, and he has now travelled to over 50 countries. In our conversation we discussed:  How he maintains his energy and positive outlook through a busy tournament calendar Why he thinks playing quickly gives him a competitive advantage. (Hence the nickname “No Fear”)  How he reacted to getting some harsh feedback from legendary trainer IM Mark Dvoretsky at age 18.  We also talked about GM Fier's recent qualification for the 2025 FIDE World Cup, his plans for the rest of 2025, and of course, chess books. It was a pleasure to chat with one of Brazil's top players, and I look forward to following his nonstop tournament adventures in the years to come. Thanks to our sponsor, Chessable.com!

The prosecution has presented compelling evidence against Sean "Diddy" Combs on Count One of his federal indictment, which alleges conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. Central to the case are wiretaps, financial records, and testimony from former associates, all of which tie Diddy to a network of criminal activities including drug trafficking, extortion, and illegal weapons possession. These documents show that Diddy used his position in the entertainment industry to facilitate and protect these operations. Witnesses have described how Diddy maintained control over the enterprise, exerting influence over associates to carry out illicit activities while shielding himself from direct involvement. The prosecution also introduced evidence of intimidation and threats against those who attempted to expose or interfere with the organization's activities.In addition, the government has presented forensic evidence linking Diddy to various key figures involved in criminal conduct. Surveillance footage, digital communications, and phone records depict Diddy coordinating with known associates to orchestrate criminal acts. Testimony has pointed to Diddy's role as both a leader and benefactor of the criminal enterprise, showing that he was deeply involved in the day-to-day operations of the illicit network. This combination of wiretaps, digital communications, and witness statements serves to establish a clear pattern of criminal behavior, demonstrating that Diddy was not just a passive bystander but an active participant in the conspiracy, fulfilling the requirements for a RICO violation.As the prosecution wraps up its presentation, the question remains: will the jury be convinced by the extensive evidence linking Sean "Diddy" Combs to the criminal activities outlined in Count One of the RICO indictment, or will they find reasonable doubt in the government's narrative? The weight of wiretaps, financial records, and witness testimony paints a damning picture of Diddy's involvement, but the defense has vigorously challenged the credibility of these claims. As deliberations approach, the jury must decide whether the prosecution has sufficiently proven that Diddy's actions were not just incidental but a central part of a calculated and organized criminal enterprise, or if the evidence falls short of establishing guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The prosecution has presented a detailed case against Sean "Diddy" Combs on Count Two of his federal indictment, which accuses him of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion involving his former girlfriend, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura. Testimony from witnesses and evidence of digital communications between Diddy and Cassie have painted a troubling picture of manipulation and control. Prosecutors argue that Diddy used his power and influence to coerce Cassie into engaging in sex acts with other individuals under duress, maintaining control over her through a mix of threats, promises, and financial leverage. The prosecution also highlighted a pattern of emotional abuse and psychological pressure, underscoring the imbalance of power in their relationship and the ongoing exploitation Cassie faced during their time together. Additionally, the government introduced testimony suggesting that Diddy's management of Cassie's career was a tool to further his control over her, with career opportunities and personal favors tied to her compliance.Forensic evidence and witness statements have supported the allegations, with some individuals describing how Diddy would demand services from Cassie and other women under the guise of business or professional obligations. These claims of sex trafficking are bolstered by text messages and other forms of communication where Diddy's coercive tactics were allegedly evident. Despite the gravity of these accusations, the defense has denied the allegations, presenting their own version of events that disputes the characterization of Diddy's actions as coercive or criminal. The jury will now face the critical task of determining whether the prosecution's portrayal of exploitation is convincing enough to overcome the defense's argument, and if Diddy's actions truly amounted to trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, or if the evidence is insufficient to support such a serious charge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Count 3 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs, which charges him with sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion in relation to Victim 2, referred to as "Jane" Doe, accuses him of orchestrating and benefiting from the exploitation of this victim. The charge alleges that Combs used force, manipulation, or deceit to coerce Jane into engaging in sex acts for his benefit, potentially with the knowledge or complicity of his associates. The prosecution's claim hinges on the idea that the victim was not participating in these acts voluntarily but was instead forced or misled into doing so under duress, a key aspect of the trafficking charge under federal law. If the prosecution's evidence is found to be credible, it would prove that Combs played a central role in exploiting Jane, using his power and influence to subject her to coercive circumstances.During the trial, the government presented testimony and evidence suggesting that Combs exerted significant pressure on Jane, using both coercive tactics and the manipulation of power dynamics to force her into sexual acts. Witnesses have claimed that Combs used threats, promises of career advancement, and other forms of psychological manipulation to control Jane's actions, effectively using his position in the entertainment industry to trap her in a situation of trafficking. The defense, on the other hand, has attempted to discredit the victim's testimony, arguing that any interactions between Combs and Jane were consensual, and they are expected to continue challenging the validity of the coercion claims. With the prosecution's evidence already on the table, the key question remains whether the jury will find that the victim was truly coerced or if the defense can sway them to doubt the severity of the alleged trafficking.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Count 5 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs charges him with transporting Victim 2, referred to as "Jane," and male commercial sex workers across state lines with the intent to engage in prostitution between 2021 and 2024. Prosecutors allege that Combs orchestrated and facilitated "freak-off" events—drug-fueled sexual encounters involving male escorts—which he directed, filmed, and used to exert control over Jane. These events reportedly took place in various locations, including New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. The prosecution's claim hinges on the idea that Jane was not participating in these acts voluntarily but was instead coerced or manipulated into doing so under duress, a key aspect of the trafficking charge under federal law. If the prosecution's evidence is found to be credible, it would prove that Combs played a central role in exploiting Jane, using his power and influence to subject her to coercive circumstancesIn response, Combs' defense team contends that the interactions were consensual and part of a private, non-criminal lifestyle. They argue that Jane willingly participated in these events and that the transportation was not for the purpose of engaging her in prostitution. The defense also points to the absence of direct evidence linking the transportation to prostitution, suggesting that the charges are based on assumptions rather than concrete proof. The outcome of this count will depend on the jury's assessment of the credibility of the evidence and testimonies presented, including the context of the relationships and the nature of the events in question.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The prosecution has presented a detailed case against Sean "Diddy" Combs on Count Two of his federal indictment, which accuses him of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion involving his former girlfriend, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura. Testimony from witnesses and evidence of digital communications between Diddy and Cassie have painted a troubling picture of manipulation and control. Prosecutors argue that Diddy used his power and influence to coerce Cassie into engaging in sex acts with other individuals under duress, maintaining control over her through a mix of threats, promises, and financial leverage. The prosecution also highlighted a pattern of emotional abuse and psychological pressure, underscoring the imbalance of power in their relationship and the ongoing exploitation Cassie faced during their time together. Additionally, the government introduced testimony suggesting that Diddy's management of Cassie's career was a tool to further his control over her, with career opportunities and personal favors tied to her compliance.Forensic evidence and witness statements have supported the allegations, with some individuals describing how Diddy would demand services from Cassie and other women under the guise of business or professional obligations. These claims of sex trafficking are bolstered by text messages and other forms of communication where Diddy's coercive tactics were allegedly evident. Despite the gravity of these accusations, the defense has denied the allegations, presenting their own version of events that disputes the characterization of Diddy's actions as coercive or criminal. The jury will now face the critical task of determining whether the prosecution's portrayal of exploitation is convincing enough to overcome the defense's argument, and if Diddy's actions truly amounted to trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, or if the evidence is insufficient to support such a serious charge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The prosecution has presented compelling evidence against Sean "Diddy" Combs on Count One of his federal indictment, which alleges conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. Central to the case are wiretaps, financial records, and testimony from former associates, all of which tie Diddy to a network of criminal activities including drug trafficking, extortion, and illegal weapons possession. These documents show that Diddy used his position in the entertainment industry to facilitate and protect these operations. Witnesses have described how Diddy maintained control over the enterprise, exerting influence over associates to carry out illicit activities while shielding himself from direct involvement. The prosecution also introduced evidence of intimidation and threats against those who attempted to expose or interfere with the organization's activities.In addition, the government has presented forensic evidence linking Diddy to various key figures involved in criminal conduct. Surveillance footage, digital communications, and phone records depict Diddy coordinating with known associates to orchestrate criminal acts. Testimony has pointed to Diddy's role as both a leader and benefactor of the criminal enterprise, showing that he was deeply involved in the day-to-day operations of the illicit network. This combination of wiretaps, digital communications, and witness statements serves to establish a clear pattern of criminal behavior, demonstrating that Diddy was not just a passive bystander but an active participant in the conspiracy, fulfilling the requirements for a RICO violation.As the prosecution wraps up its presentation, the question remains: will the jury be convinced by the extensive evidence linking Sean "Diddy" Combs to the criminal activities outlined in Count One of the RICO indictment, or will they find reasonable doubt in the government's narrative? The weight of wiretaps, financial records, and witness testimony paints a damning picture of Diddy's involvement, but the defense has vigorously challenged the credibility of these claims. As deliberations approach, the jury must decide whether the prosecution has sufficiently proven that Diddy's actions were not just incidental but a central part of a calculated and organized criminal enterprise, or if the evidence falls short of establishing guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Count 4 of the federal indictment against Sean "Diddy" Combs charges him with transporting Victim 1, identified as Cassie Ventura, across state lines with the intent to engage her in prostitution. Prosecutors allege that between 2009 and 2018, Combs orchestrated and facilitated "freak-off" events—drug-fueled sexual encounters involving male escorts—which he directed, filmed, and used to exert control over Ventura. These events reportedly took place in various locations, including New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. The prosecution argues that Combs used his influence and resources to transport Ventura and other women to these events, where they were coerced into participating in commercial sex acts. Evidence presented includes travel records and communications that suggest the transportation was part of a broader scheme to exploit women for prostitution.In response, Combs' defense team contends that the interactions were consensual and part of a private, non-criminal lifestyle. They argue that Ventura willingly participated in these events and that the transportation was not for the purpose of engaging her in prostitution. The defense also points to the absence of direct evidence linking the transportation to prostitution, suggesting that the charges are based on assumptions rather than concrete proof.

Celebrity romances have always captured the public's imagination, playing out like soap operas seized upon by fans and tabloids alike. By the same token, high-profile trials can take over the mainstream media cycle, with both news pundits and the public picking over every detail to predict outcomes and cast their own judgements. Enter the union, dissolution, and hostile legal battle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard-where these dual obsessions collided in a chaotic moment of true cultural fixation.Hollywood Vampires offers an inside account of one of the most controversial and consequential celebrity scandals of the internet era. Fueled by viral clips, reaction videos, and endless online debates, the trial became more than a legal battle. It became a public spectacle, dividing audiences worldwide. Kelly Loudenberg and Makiko Wholey were documentarians and journalists on the ground for the Depp vs Heard trial. Having closely followed both Johnny, Amber, and their camps, they spent years leading up to and following the trial, interviewing the couple's closest allies as well as their managers, lawyers, agents, business associates, publicists, assistants, and personal staff. Culled from their reporting in Fairfax, Virginia, as well as over 50 hours of exclusive video footage, Hollywood Vampires is a lucid, inside-the-room account that reveals a story the world thinks it knows in an entirely new light."Over the seven weeks we spent covering the trial, we came to a profound realization: unraveling the complexity, nuance, and cultural significance of the story required the depth and breadth that only a book could provide. What started as a traditional documentary transformed into a literary investigation that allowed us to spend several years conducting extensive interviews and performing meticulous research on the multifaceted characters and narratives that intersected in this case. In crafting this book, we have made a sincere effort to represent all perspectives and tell a complete story. We've approached the subject matter with both journalistic integrity and narrative flair. Hollywood Vampires offers readers more than just celebrity gossip or true crime intrigue-it explores questions about power, perception, gender dynamics, and the court of public opinion in our digital age," said Loudenberg and Wholey.Turning the lens around, Hollywood Vampires questions how the Hollywood exploitation machine, strengthened by the forces of social media and legacy media alike, blurs the lines between fact and fiction, reportage and voyeurism, comedy and horror. It also explores how social media transformed a courtroom-a pillar of justice-into a source of digital mayhem where misinformation spread like wildfire. The result is a page-turning Hollywood epic full of revealing details that tell a wider tale about the celebrity-industrial complex, modern fandom, inflammatory culture wars, and contemporary feminism. With its unparalleled access and in-depth, investigative approach, Hollywood Vampires is set to join the ranks of other bestselling books like BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS by Mandy Matney, CATCH AND KILL by Ronan Farrow and ENDGAME by Omid Scobie.For readers of weighty, reported cultural narratives as well as pop-culture obsessives, this book offers a rare glimpse into the hidden machinery of Hollywood, the power plays embedded within our justice system, and the private lives of two of the biggest movie stars in the world.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

They are joined by Karim Sadjadpour, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a longtime Iran expert. “What is going to drive events is not the national interest of the United States or the national interests of Iran, but this duel between these two men, Donald Trump and Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei,” Sadjapour says. “What I really fear is that both of these men feel like their honor is on the line.” This week's reading:“Donald Trump's No-Strategy Strategy on Iran,” by Isaac Chotiner“The Trump Crackdown on Elected Officials,” by Jonathan Blitzer“What Is Israel's Endgame with Iran?” by Robin Wright“The Military's Birthday Parade Rolls Quietly Through Trump's Washington,” by Antonia Hitchens“After Attacking Iran, Israel Girds for What's Next,” by Ruth Margalit“Why Netanyahu Decided to Strike Iran Now,” by Isaac Chotiner“President Trump's Military Games,” by Ruth Marcus“Is the Anti-Trump Opposition Getting Its #Resistance Back?” by Jon AllsopTune in wherever you get your podcasts.

As missile exchanges escalate, munitions stockpiles run low, and diplomacy gives way to deception, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher. In this in-depth analysis, we break down how U.S. foreign policy, Israeli military strategy, and Iranian retaliation are converging into a perfect storm — one that could drag the region, and the world, into a catastrophic conflict.Is this another Iraq War moment? Are we witnessing the collapse of diplomacy and the rise of raw power politics? And how do Trump's ambitions, the Abraham Accords, and global power rivalries with Russia and China factor in?

Tensions with Iran reach a breaking point as bizarre propaganda meets deadly serious threats. Tara Servatius breaks down Iran's outlandish claim that Israel is deploying “ghosts, demons, and witches” to assassinate Iranian leaders, while U.S. officials weigh surgical military strikes to neutralize nuclear facilities. Former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook outlines Trump's strategic options — including joint Israeli strikes and devastating bunker-buster bombing campaigns. Meanwhile, Tara and Lisa dive deep into geopolitical power dynamics, calling out misplaced U.S. focus on Russia while China and Iran menace the globe. This pivotal conversation challenges conventional narratives, explores military history in real time, and warns of the high stakes if America fails to act with resolve.

The battle between President Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) is heating up. As the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots continue to put Americans at risk, Newsom is fighting President Trump's peace efforts at every turn. Glenn and Stu react to Newsom's late-night press conference, where he attacked Trump for sending the National Guard to Los Angeles. The media are twisting President Trump's 250th anniversary military parade by claiming it's for Trump's own birthday. As President Trump is planning a parade to celebrate our military, the Left is planning nationwide protests, called the "No Kings" rallies, to protest Trump's presidency. Jason Buttrill, Glenn's chief researcher, breaks down who's behind these protests. Glenn looks back on everything he's built since leaving Fox News and announces his next chapter to continue the mission TheBlaze was founded on.

After a ridiculously long hiatus, The Super Terrific Happy Hour returns as Steph and I dive back into the rapidly changing world of global finance, exploring how Japan's decades-long experiment with low interest rates and high debt is no longer unique, as the United States and other developed economies find themselves on a similar path. We unpack Japan's recent inflation surge, the Bank of Japan's extraordinary bond holdings, and the risks of major capital flows if Japanese investors start bringing their money home before pivoting to the broader implications of a world where globalization may be reversing—raising questions about reshoring, capital controls, and whether governments might coerce institutions to buy more domestic debt. There's bundles of skepticism on display as we evaluate policymakers' ability to manage these seismic shifts and a warning of systemic risks, fragile financial systems, and the potential for a painful redistribution of wealth. Amid the uncertainty, we discuss the enduring appeal of gold, the limits of monetary policy, and the high geopolitical stakes for the dollar and the petrodollar system, offering the kind of big-picture insights and candid cynicism you've come to expect from the two of us.
