On today's episode, Andy sits down with former CIA officer John Kiriakou to discuss his path into the Agency, the unconventional recruitment process, and his firsthand experience with enhanced interrogation and rendition operations. Kiriakou shares the moral and ethical dilemmas he faced, what ultimately led him to speak out, and the personal consequences of becoming a whistleblower. The conversation also explores the political environment during the Bush administration, the evolution of U.S. counterterrorism strategies after 9/11, and Kiriakou's perspective on the current crisis in Gaza and the broader implications of American foreign policy.

Let's look at a topic that's been making a lot of headlines lately: the use of the Alien Enemies Act for deportations, especially with talk around Trump's immigration policies. Now, don't worry—I promised to keep things non-political, and I plan to stick to that. Instead, I'm here to walk you through what's really going on behind the scenes: the legal procedures and how these cases play out in court.Recently, federal judges in different parts of the country have been coming to completely opposite conclusions about the government's power to use this act. So, how does that work? What happens when courts disagree this way? I'll break down the basics of appellate law, explain why we're probably headed straight for a Supreme Court decision, and talk about what that means for everyone watching this play out.If you're curious about how the legal system handles big, controversial cases like this—without all the political noise—you're in the right place. Stick around, and I'll walk you through exactly what's happening and what comes next.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Forget the storybook version of British history. Churchill without Hitler would be a forgotten windbag with a record of failure. Elizabeth I and Francis Drake didn't defeat the Spanish – bad luck and bad weather sank the Armada. And Boudicca would be remembered as a sadistic tyrant if not for the Romans. Creator of the multi-million-selling kids' series Horrible Histories Terry Deary brings his irreverent, fact-packed style to adult readers with A History of Britain in Ten Enemies.

Indwelling sin's persistence and urgency seem to be noted in this expression of its "warring." Enemies in war are restless, pressing, and persistent; so is the law of sin. Does it set upon the soul? Cast off its motions, and it returns again. Rebuke them by the power of grace. They withdraw for a while, and return again. Set before them the cross of Christ. They do as those that came to take Him: at the sight of Him, they went backwards and fell to the ground, but they arose again and laid hands on Him (Joh 18:6-13). Sin gives place for a season, but returns and presses on the soul again.

Are you constantly racing the clock — stressed, scattered, and stuck in your head with a million “what ifs”?Been there. Still catch myself there sometimes.In this solo episode on The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm talking about the two biggest silent killers of success: HURRY and WORRY — and how to beat 'em both.I'm talkin' real, simple tactics that'll help you slow down, breathe deeper, and actually enjoy the journey WHILE building your dream life.Here's a quick sneak peek of what I covered:Power Hour Time BlocksProductivity ≠ busyness. You need focus. I block 90-minute “Power Hours” for deep work: phone on airplane mode, distractions gone, binaural beats flowing through my Neurable headphones (seriously, game-changer—these headphones even track brain focus and give biofeedback).Can't commit 90 minutes? Use tools like ​Pomofocus.io​ or Focus Keeper. Even 25 minutes of distraction-free hustle can move the needle more than 3 hours of scattered multitasking.Daily Digital DetoxUnplug to plug in. One of the 10 Alignments in my S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N system is unplugging digitally. I aim for tech-free Sundays (though, real talk, not perfect), but I always try to keep the first 30 and last 30 minutes of the day sacred—no phone, no scrolling, no noise.Try it. Sip your coffee in silence. Journal. Pray. Let your brain reboot.The 3x3x3 Morning Gratitude ResetBefore you scroll or stress, write down:3 things you're grateful for3 people you're grateful for3 wins from the day beforeSimple structure. Big shift. You'll start the day rooted in abundance, not anxiety. My latest: Grateful for my wife, son, and Montana breeze. Wins? A killer podcast episode, 2 new Happy Hustlers, and progress on our SaaS platform.The Worry DumpGrab a journal or Notes app and dump your worry. Write down:What you're worried aboutWhat's actually in your controlThe next micro action you can takeWorried about money? You can't control the economy, but you can record a reel, pitch 10 clients, or email your list. Turn anxiety into action.Flip the ScriptYour mindset is the magic. When I started building our SaaS company, my inner voice said: What if it flops? But I flipped it: What if it changes the freakin' world?Choose to turn fear into fuel. Change “what if I fail?” to “what if I fly?”Action Beats AnxietyMicro actions reduce overwhelm. Let's say your podcast downloads are low. Instead of spiraling, take one step: film a short video, email a fan, post a quote. Small steps, big momentum. Rinse and repeat.These aren't fluffy feel-good ideas — they're legit game-changers I use in my own biz and life to hustle with purpose, not panic.So if you're tired of feeling overwhelmed, on edge, and out of alignment.Go listen to the episode now and steal the exact 6 tactics I use to Happy Hustle, not hectic.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors: If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

As 17th-century Britain edged ever closer to civil war, two friends, Bulstrode Whitelock and Ned Hyde, found their relationship under increasing strain. Minoo Dinshaw tells Ellie Cawthorne about how these two companions found themselves on opposite sides of a political and ideological divide, and reflects on how the Civil War caused painful ruptures in many personal relationships.

The Left is going after DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's definition of habeas corpus during a hearing about President Trump's immigration policies. Glenn dives deep into the history of habeas corpus, what it means, and its critical role in protecting your civil liberties. Glenn also exposes how the Left is weaponizing habeas corpus to flood the country with illegal immigrants. Glenn proposes that the president elect special judges whose sole purpose is to deliver speedy trials to deal with our immigration problem. Glenn discusses the revelations coming out about the cover-up of Biden's mental and physical health. What if Republicans had hidden Trump's health and signed executive orders with an autopen? Glenn destroys Whoopi Goldberg's claim that Biden's health cover-up doesn't matter. Will we start seeing arrests of the people who covered up the COVID-19 pandemic? Glenn breaks down how other countries are destroying themselves from within. Is America doing the same? The Left only cares about green energy when it's you who is suffering. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Zack Smith joins Marc & Kim to break down what the recent court rulings mean for the President's ability to utilize to Alien Enemies Act to deport criminals, what this means for the people in federal custody while this is left in limbo and his thoughts on injunctions coming from lower courts.

There are allegations that the Trump administration is collaborating on a new reality TV show where immigrants compete for a prize of U.S. citizenship. And the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has now responded. In other news, the U.S. Supreme Court has effectively blocked part of Trump's plans for mass deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. The case is being sent back to a lower court, and could open the door for illegal immigrants facing deportation to challenge the orders.Views expressed in this episode are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

In this episode, we will confront the real battle lines in life—spiritual, internal, and relational. Are you fighting the wrong enemies while compromising with the ones who truly oppose God's will?

It's time to stop seeking approval from what you're meant to resist—and stand firm in the war you're already in.Ephesians 6:12Matthew 5:441 Peter 5:8James 4:4Romans 8:7,8Galatians 5:24Matthew 12:30Deuteronomy 7:3-5Galatians 1:10Daniel 3:16-181 Timothy 6:12Colossians 2:14,15You can now also WATCH C.L.!

"The President has invoked the Alien Enemies Act (AEA), Rev. Stat. §4067, 50 U. S. C. §21, to remove Venezuelan nationals who are members of Tren de Aragua (TdA), a designated foreign terrorist organization. See Presidential Proclamation No. 10903, 90 Fed. Reg. 13033 (2025). Applicants are two detainees identified as members of TdA and a putative class of similarly situated detainees in the Northern District of Texas. All of the alleged TdA members in the putative class are currently being held in U. S. detention facilities. In the application before the Court, the detainees seek injunctive relief against summary removal under the AEA."

Today's Headlines: In Palm Springs, California, a car explosion outside a fertility clinic killed the 25-year-old suspect and injured four others in what the FBI has labeled an act of intentional terrorism. The suspect's online manifesto suggested he was motivated by a fringe “pro-mortalist” philosophy, opposing the creation of life. In New York, a Mexican Navy training ship on a global goodwill tour collided with the Brooklyn Bridge after losing power, killing two people and injuring twenty. Former President Joe Biden announced that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive, hormone-sensitive form of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, but his medical team remains optimistic about management. In a 7-2 ruling, the Supreme Court blocked the Trump administration's plan to deport Venezuelans to a prison in El Salvador without sufficient legal process, emphasizing the need for due process protections. In economic news, former President Trump criticized Walmart's plan to raise prices in response to tariffs, insisting the company should absorb the costs, while Moody's downgraded the U.S. credit rating due to rising debt and interest payments. Boeing may escape a guilty plea related to the 737 Max crashes through a tentative DOJ agreement, raising concerns among victims' families. UnitedHealth Group is now under investigation for potential Medicare fraud, and Florida has become the second state, after Utah, to ban fluoride in its public water supply.

This past Friday the US Supreme Court issued an order freezing Trump's efforts to deport violent Tren de Aragua terrorists under the Alien Enemies Act proclamation issued by the President on March 14, 2025, almost two months prior. What are the implications for the Article II Executive Branch and its efforts to secure America from the predatory invasion of TdA? To what degree can the unelected, black-robed, tyrannical Article III federal district courts freeze the ability of the elected Article II Executive Branch president to deport violent aliens from our shores?Join me LIVE as I dive into this most recent SCOTUS decision on the Alien Enemies act, and the likely consequences to follow!Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

Four things let us ever keep in mind; God heeds prayer, God answers prayer and God delivers by prayer, because God hears prayer. Bible in a Year:1 Chronicles 7-9 & John 6:22-44 - God's Prisoner, Your Servant. 

“You have heard it said” is a phrase Jesus uses throughout his Sermon on the Mount. With those five words, Jesus was challenging his hearers' entire worldview. And he is doing the same thing for us today. We live in a divided world, inside and outside the church. What if Jesus was serious about his command for his followers to love their enemies? What would that look like in your life? Romans 12:14-21 (ESV)Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.Matthew 5:38-48 (ESV)“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.' But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

The Goodness of God: Even Your Enemies, Matthew 5:38-47, Pastor Kyle Fellows

William Blake opens the third part of his epic poem, Jerusalem: the Emanation of the Giant Albion, with an astonishing remark. “He never can be a friend of the Human Race who is the Preacher of Natural Morality or Natural Religion.”The declaration is shocking because today, two hundred years since he first printed these lines, naturalistic explanations of morality and religion have become standard. Even amongst champions of Blake.But what did he mean? What did he propose as an alternative? And why might that matter now?An earlier version of this essay is in the current issue of Vala, the magazine of The Blake Society.Mark Vernon's new book is Awake! William Blake and the Power of the Imagination - out in June 2025 (UK), September 2025 (US). Pre-order now!

Trump is stealing Bernie's manifesto. In this episode, we dive into why Trump is suddenly talking about taxing the rich and slashing the cost of prescription drugs, policies lifted straight from the progressive left. Is he turning on the billionaire donors funding his campaign? And is Israel, long a pet cause of those donors, being quietly edged out of Trump's new MAGA calculus? We unpack a flurry of recent deals, from a largely meaningless UK–US trade agreement , to an urgent truce with China after Chinese exports to the US through the Port of LA fell by 50%. Behind the white smoke: a looming summer of empty shelves, rising inflation, and a reminder that America's economic dominance isn't what it used to be. Meanwhile, Ireland exports more to the US than the UK does, despite being 12 times smaller, but could soon find itself caught in the crossfire if the US starts attaching China-related conditions to EU trade.

In Season 3, Episode 28 of Altered State, Zak “RedPill78” Paine and Brad Zerbo unpack Trump's game-changing Middle East strategy, highlighting his $1.2 trillion economic deal with Qatar and a growing realignment of U.S. foreign policy. The hosts defend Trump's acceptance of a Qatari aircraft gift, calling it both strategic and cost-effective compared to America's aging Air Force One fleet. They explore Trump's diplomatic doctrine of peace through strength, offering olive branches to historic enemies like Iran, Syria, and Lebanon, while refusing to be drawn into wars driven by legacy media and neocon interests. The conversation dives deep into the Israel-Palestine conflict, U.S. proxy wars, and how Trump is dismantling the globalist war economy in favor of economic partnership and sovereignty. The episode also critiques the outrage from neocon pundits like Mark Levin, discusses dual citizenship in public office, and argues that real loyalty to the Constitution must supersede all foreign allegiances. Packed with clips, cultural commentary, and sharp insights, this episode makes the case that Trump isn't just brokering peace, he's exposing the machinery of war that's controlled global politics for decades.

Episode 4483: How AI's Prioritizes Content Over Individuals, Federal Judge Approves President Trump's Alien Enemies Usage

"All bets are off if they start snatching judges." Judges are being threatened, civic institutions are under assault, and authoritarian tactics are becoming normalized. The right's strategy is relentless: show up, take over, and silence dissent. Meanwhile, apathy and disengagement from the left have created a vacuum that fascists are more than willing to fill. Fighting back won't come from Washington—it starts with showing up at the most local levels and refusing to cede ground. The time is now, people. You are the heroes of this story...if you show up. Rick takes your questions on everything from Little Marco, the new Pope, the backslide of American Democracy, and the non-doctor, non-expert Trump wants for Surgeon General.

The girlies are back for part two of the immigration series to unpack our modern-day McCarthyism. Starting with a recap of current events (aka The Horrible Things Update), they pick up where they left off in history, discussing Japanese internment, the second Red Scare, post-9/11 surveillance, and how fear of the 'other' has always justified oppression. Digressions include Khloe Kardashian's venture into protein dust and the comforting fact that, as of today, sunlight is still legal to experience. We're going on tour!!!!

Meta thinks that if you steal tens of millions of books, the value of each individual theft rounds down to zero. Is that the law? (No.) Also, the Qatari Royal family wants to give Donald Trump a half-billion-dollar plane and make the US government pay to renovate it. Turns out, that hasn't been legal for more than two hundred years, but who's counting? Oh, and the administration arrested the Mayor of Newark.

The internet is a balkanization of the populace: Everybody finds those they want to listen to. It is exceedingly difficult to teach somebody whose principal input in his life is through the internet. With a flesh-and-blood pastor, you at least can see his sins, his wife, and his children. Generally, with a pastor, you can't escape his bad smells, but on the internet, everything and everyone is perfect.The most difficult thing you do in ministry is to call your own congregation to repentance. It is easy to talk about the sins of people outside the church, but exceedingly costly to do so to those within the church. Your job is on the line. A godly church will love you for that. But there are a lot of bad congregations—those congregations that like their ears tickled. We should love our pastors when they make us angry with their helpfulness.Yet, if pastors will preach to their congregations, their congregations will lead the world. It is not until we are challenged to submit to Scripture ourselves that we will be salt and light in the world. If there is going to be a Biblical church, the most important thing to do is to keep its discipline vivified. But we'd much rather spend our time fighting people who are opposed to Christianity. NETTR protects the "constituents," and casts stones at the world.***Mentioned in the episode...From Melville's Moby Dick, chapter 8, "The Pulpit": "What could be more full of meaning?- for the pulpit is ever this earth's foremost part; all the rest comes in its rear; the pulpit leads the world. From thence it is the storm of God's quick wrath is first descried, and the bow must bear the earliest brunt. From thence it is the God of breezes fair or foul is first invoked for favorable winds. Yes, the world's a ship on its passage out, and not a voyage complete; and the pulpit is its prow."Fundamentalism and American Culture by George MarsdenC.S. Lewis, from The Last Battle: "By mixing a little truth with it, they had made their lie far stronger."Robert Owen: "All the world is queer, save thee and me, and even thou art a little queer."***Out of Our Minds Podcast: Pastors Who Say What They Think.

When God becomes our treasure, we treat our adversaries out of our own fullness with the all-satisfying glory of God.

The Christian is called to bless those who persecute them. But let's face it; it's not enough to just remain neutral towards the people who offend us. If we do that, we'll quickly break down and get angry. So what do we do instead? Tune in to hear Dr. James Boice talk about how to bless your enemy, this week on The Bible Study Hour.
