In Episode 87 of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost dives into the escalating tensions surrounding Ukraine, NATO expansion, and the broader strategic realignment taking place between Russia and the West. He traces the historical context behind NATO's eastward movement, examining how prior agreements and security assurances shaped today's conflict environment. Ghost analyzes Western diplomatic positioning, military aid packages, and the economic consequences of sanctions, arguing that the Ukraine war represents more than a regional dispute — it is a pivotal moment in the struggle over global power structures. He also explores how media narratives frame aggression, sovereignty, and legitimacy, contrasting official messaging with underlying geopolitical incentives. The episode connects energy policy, defense alliances, and financial pressure into a cohesive picture of shifting alliances and multipolar tension. Ep. 87 offers a historical and strategic lens on the Ukraine conflict, focusing on how great power competition is reshaping the international system in real time.

Prophetic Insights into the Spirit of Haman | KIB 519 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In this week's Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (Episode 519), Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake turn toward the biblical season of Purim and the prophetic lessons embedded in the book of Esther. As hidden things continue to be revealed in our day, Purim reminds us that God is not absent—He is orchestrating reversals, positioning His people, and bringing justice in His timing. Dr. Lake explores a powerful character study of Esther's three central figures—Esther, Mordecai, and Haman—and shows how Haman's identity as "the Agagite" connects the narrative to the ancient war with Amalek. You'll see how Saul's incomplete obedience created consequences that surfaced generations later—and how God raised up Mordecai and Esther to finish what Saul failed to do. This episode also examines the psychological and spiritual profile of Haman: pride, entitlement, obsession with honor, rage at dissent, manipulation of law and finances, and genocidal hatred. The discussion highlights how these traits mirror the "Amalekite/Haman spirit" at work through systems, propaganda, and bureaucratic power—then and now. Finally, we look at the hope of Purim: divine reversal—the trap of the wicked becoming their own downfall—and the call for the remnant to cultivate spiritual "mnemonic triggers" that keep us anchored in covenant faithfulness, humility, and the Word of God. Key themes: Purim, Esther, Mordecai, Haman, Amalek, covenant warfare, generational consequences, divine reversal, remnant preparation, end-times spiritual conflict.

How an Oregon anti-ICE activist's own videos function like “confession” content—complete with tactics, shoutouts to activist networks, and a warning that regular people could be targeted if they unknowingly rent cars previously used by ICE. You'll also get Victoria's breakdown of why that warning sounds less like “concern” and more like a pressure campaign—and why she thinks law enforcement should be taking a harder look.Then international security expert Kenneth Abramowitz joins to talk Iran, threats, cartels, and what he calls a multi-front war, including how hostile networks coordinate across borders.#VictoriaTaft#AdultInTheRoom#PortlandOregon#ICE#Antifa#StateOfTheUnion#Iran#BorderSecurity#Cartels#SupremeCourt#Tariffs#MarcoRubio#OlympicHockey#NewsCommentary#Politics

After taking a week off to tend to personal matters, Lauren returns to the series on leading under pressure with a focus on navigating conflict without escalation. She reframes conflict as a nervous system event rather than simply a communication issue, explaining how stress activates threat responses around control, safety, and belonging. When leaders become dysregulated, they lose access to clarity and often default to avoidance, control, or appeasement.She also explores what it looks like to stay grounded in tense moments through steady tone, clear boundaries, defined next steps, and meaningful repair when needed. Conflict is inevitable, but escalation is not when leaders choose regulation over urgency.Sign up for the University of Pennsylvania Behavior Breakthrough Accredited CourseLearn about the Staff Sustainability System a proven system to reduce burnout at the rootResources: The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel A. van der Kolk, M.D.Other related resources from Five Ives: Blog Post: Why Traditional Employee Wellness Programs Fail (And What Works Instead)Survive Mode: Recognizing When Your Organization is in CrisisWhat are the Five Ives?Podcast:A Fresh Look at the Five Ives Framework in the WorkplaceClarity as a Safety CueWhen Leaders Become the StressorEpisode 2: Authority Without FearEpisode 1: What Stress Does to Decision MakingThe Pause Between Now and NextLeading From a Regulated CoreWhen Culture DysregulatesGrowth & Feedback Without FearOnboarding as Co-RegulationPolicy as a Nervous SystemThe Regulated Organization: What it Means to be a Regulated OrganizationOur Online Programs: Behavior BreakthroughPolicing Under PressureBoard Governance TrainingUniversity of Pennsylvania Behavior Breakthrough Accredited CourseSubscribe to our mailing list and find out more about Stress, Trauma, Behavior and the Brain!Check out our Facebook Group – Five Ives!Five Ives WebsiteThe Behavior Hub blogIf you're looking for support as you grow your organization's capacity for caring for staff and the community, we would love to be part of that journey. Schedule a free discovery call and let us be your guideAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

In this episode, Devin and Ian break down the Training Incident League (or TIL), an escalation league that will be running soon to help bring in new players to their community.

Veteran Italian officer Andrea Boggiatto, who now serves in Colorado pulls back the curtain on how culture, tools, and law shape policing on both sides of the Atlantic. From 400‑person academy classes and national public order units to mid-sized U.S. agencies built on names and faces, he walks us through the structural DNA that drives training, tactics, and trust.We get specific about the moments that decide outcomes: radio traffic under stress, the tempo of dialogue, and the rungs between words and force. In Italy, many officers carry a baton and a sidearm but lack tasers, OC spray, and even consistent access to ballistic vests. That narrowed toolkit pushes decisions toward sharper edges. Contrast that with American emphasis on layered force options and “act like you've been there” comms—habits that slow the clock when seconds matter. He admits he had to rewire instinct, shifting from “one, two, ten” to a steadier climb where patience is a trained skill, not just a personality trait.The legal terrain might be the starkest divide. He unpacks a Milan shooting involving a realistic replica and the intense scrutiny that followed, then lays out why Italian civilians face steep barriers to gun ownership and self-defense. Even victims who protect their families can be pulled into years of litigation. It's a sobering counterpoint to the U.S. “home as castle” mindset and a reminder that legitimacy rests as much on courts as on streets. Through it all runs a simple idea: the badge is an amplifier. Good character, sound training, and clear policy make better outcomes; weak links get louder, faster.If you care about practical reform—recruiting for temperament, building scenario-based judgment, tightening radio discipline, and giving officers lawful, effective options between baton and bullet—this conversation offers grounded, field-tested insight. Listen, share with a friend who has strong opinions about European vs. American policing, and leave a review with the one change you'd export across the Atlantic.send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comPeregrine.io: Turn your worst detectives into Sherlock Holmes, head to Peregrine.io tell them Two Cops One Donut sent you or direct message me and I'll get you directly connected and skip the salesmen.Support the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

In the February 20 episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul break down the latest developments surrounding immigration enforcement, congressional budget negotiations, and intensifying political pressure ahead of upcoming legislative fights. The hosts examine statements from administration officials and lawmakers regarding border policy, federal funding disputes, and the broader implications for state and local governance. The conversation also revisits election integrity concerns, analyzing recent commentary, media framing, and the strategic positioning of key political figures. CannCon and Chris question how narratives are being shaped across party lines and what that means for public perception moving forward. Throughout the episode, they connect policy decisions to long-term structural consequences, emphasizing the importance of reading beyond headlines and understanding how timing, messaging, and institutional maneuvering intersect. February 20's broadcast delivers a focused review of national security, fiscal policy, and electoral dynamics as political tensions continue to rise.

① Trump gives Iran a 10-15 day ultimatum on the nuclear deal. Will diplomacy avert ‘bad things' or is a crisis looming? (00:37) ② China sees a cross-border travel surge under the visa-free policy. (11:58) ③ Why does China aim for a "reasonable price recovery"? (24:10)

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:  New reporting suggests a potential conflict with Iran may not be months away, but weeks or even days, as diplomatic talks stall and military preparations accelerate on multiple fronts. Sources warn that a joint U.S.–Israeli operation could be larger than many anticipate, while Tehran also appears to be preparing for the worst. American officials have unveiled new seismic data supporting claims that China conducted a covert low-yield nuclear test. Beijing denies the accusation, but the new evidence could further strain already tense relations between Washington and Beijing. Amid shifting political dynamics and declining trust in American security guarantees, several European nations are openly discussing the possibility of developing independent nuclear deterrent capabilities. The United States plans to deploy additional advanced missile systems to the Philippines to counter China in the South China Sea, a move that has drawn sharp criticism from Beijing and raises the stakes in the Indo-Pacific.

This Monday News Drop covers three developments that should be squarely on every healthcare HR leader's radar.

Inspired by Tao Te Ching chapter 68, and drawing from our work with sport stadium security, elementary students, comedy show door work, and event lead roles with concerts, we discuss the idea that the best warrior is not warlike. Even if you don't usually vibe with this, consider listening to this show to learn a bit about the art of de-escalation. We also discuss an interesting candidate for "Tao Surfer Ranch 2.0" that we checked out in the desert windy roads of historic Route 66.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde takes listeners inside a rare moment when Beijing's usually sealed-off security apparatus is leaking signals to the outside world: a run of espionage-linked detentions and purges touching the PLA command pipeline, and even the state-finance sphere, including the reported downfall of Bank of China executive Lin Jingzhen. What does it mean when China's leadership allows public visibility into cases that would normally be buried? Are these arrests a sign of genuine counterintelligence panic, a political loyalty sweep, or both at once? And if some of the targets include high-ranking officers with real warfighting experience, how does that reshape risk calculations around Taiwan: deterrence, timing, and the chance of miscalculation? Bidemi also maps the second-order ripple effects: crisis communications with the U.S., signals to allies and rivals, procurement and readiness shocks, and the way "anti-espionage" politics can tighten across finance, tech, and society.On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them. Born from Ghanaian roots, Lembrih is building an ethical marketplace for Black and African artisans: makers of heritage-rich products often overlooked online. The vision is simple: shop consciously, empower communities, and share the stories behind the craft. Lembrih is live on Kickstarter now, and your pledge helps build the platform.

What actually works to avoid violent outcomes when someone is armed, emotional, and on the edge? I talk with former FBI chief hostage negotiator Gary Noesner, author of Stalling for Time, about the psychology of high-stakes crisis situations — including lessons from Waco (part of which he was present for) and other cases Gary explains the “paradox of power” (why pushing aggressively often backfires), and why most so-called hostage situations are really emotional crises, not bargaining contests. We also discuss the limits of reading body language and behavior, the power of active listening, and the importance of tone of voice and how you phrase things.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Michael speaks with the former Chief of the IDF Intelligence Directorate Maj. Gen. (res.) Tamir Hayman about the increasing likelihood of military action against Iran's missile program. Gen. Hayman—who serves as Executive Director of the Tel Aviv-based Institute for National Security Studies (INSS)—analyzes the complex regional "reshuffle," explaining how Saudi Arabia is recalibrating its position through a rapprochement with Iran while distancing itself from the UAE and Israel. Gen. Hayman also offers his forecast on the future of Hamas and Gaza, and the broader outlook for regional stability.

Episode Description:This was one of those interviews where James thought he was talking about leadership—and realized halfway through that he was really talking about responsibility.Jocko Willink doesn't use buzzwords. He doesn't soften the message. He talks about ego, blame, and why most problems—at work and in life—don't come from bad systems but from leaders who won't take ownership.What struck James most wasn't the battlefield stories. It was how calmly Jocko explained things everyone avoids: hard conversations, personal discipline, and the quiet habits that prevent disasters before they happen. No theatrics. No motivation talk. Just clarity.Listening back now, years later, this episode feels even more relevant. The ideas haven't aged at all. If anything, they matter more.What You'll Learn:Why ego—not lack of skill—is the biggest obstacle to leadershipHow taking ownership defuses blame and accelerates problem-solvingWhy hard conversations get easier when you have them earlyHow decentralized command builds trust and better decisionsWhy discipline creates freedom in work, creativity, and personal lifeTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Handling criticism, ego, and emotional control[03:00] Introduction: Jocko Willink, Extreme Ownership, and Way of the Warrior Kid[06:00] Kids, insecurity, and learning discipline early[08:00] Combat decision-making and pausing under pressure[11:00] Friendly fire, responsibility, and the origin of “Extreme Ownership”[12:30] Blame vs. ownership in business and life[15:00] Ego as the real obstacle to leadership[17:00] How leaders share blame without losing authority[18:30] Clarifying expectations: writing, follow-ups, and alignment[20:00] Avoiding confrontation—and why it backfires[22:00] Hard conversations: why earlier is always easier[24:00] Escalation, accountability, and firing as leadership failure[25:30] Being proactive instead of reactive[26:30] Why Jocko joined the SEALs[28:00] The “dry years”: training for war that never came[30:00] Discipline equals freedom[31:30] Discipline in art and creativity (Jimmy Page example)[33:00] Commander's intent vs. micromanagement[35:00] Decentralized command and trusting your team[37:00] Managing micromanagers by over-communicating[41:00] Leadership problems vs. process problems[44:00] Sleep, routines, and daily discipline[47:00] Way of the Warrior Kid and teaching confidence[49:30] Jiujitsu as discipline, restraint, and self-control[54:00] Confidence reduces conflict[58:00] Discipline, freedom, and building a personal code01:03:00] National strength and deterrence[01:05:00] War, leadership, and human nature[01:08:00] Why veterans think twice about war[01:10:00] Perspective from real suffering[01:13:00] Gratitude in modern life[01:15:00] Studying hardship to build humility[01:18:00] Comfort vs. resilience[01:20:00] Perspective, sacrifice, and responsibility[01:26:00] Paying tribute to endurance and resilience[01:28:00] Closing reflections and sign-offSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Juliana Stepanova: Trust Over Escalation — A Patient Approach to Difficult PO Relationships Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "The team still believes it could be solved with proper communication to the PO. My idea is to really try, in a supportive way, to build trust, to encourage communication, and to come to the solution as a team altogether. This is like a win-win situation." - Juliana Stepanova   Juliana brings a challenge that many Scrum Masters will recognize: a Product Owner who doesn't want to be coached and whose behaviors are undermining Scrum rituals. The situation is complicated by organizational structure—the Scrum Master reports to the people department while the PO reports to the product department, creating misaligned directions with no common leadership thread.  The PO arrives at refinement meetings unprepared, writing user stories on the spot while eight team members sit idle for hours. When Juliana explores the root cause, she discovers the PO is genuinely overwhelmed with responsibilities outside the team. But here's the twist: this newly promoted PO is proud of the role and resistant to accepting help, preferring to say "just wait, I will manage it."  Rather than escalating—which Juliana notes would damage trust for years or potentially lose the PO entirely—she advocates for a patient, collaborative approach. The experiment she designs focuses on engaging more deeply with the PO's activities to understand which tasks could be delegated or eliminated, while continuing to build trust through support rather than confrontation. The team maintains hope that the PO will eventually accept help, choosing persistence over escalation.   In this segment, we talk about coaching Product Owners and building trust.   Self-reflection Question: When facing a resistant stakeholder, do you default to escalation, or do you invest in building the trust that enables genuine collaboration?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

In this episode of Future Finance, hosts Paul Barnhurst and Glenn Hopper talk with Kevin Thomas and Drew Hyatt, co-founders of Omniga, about solving persistent issues in bookkeeping and the monthly close process for small and mid-sized businesses. They discuss how finance leaders often struggle with unreliable data and how Omniga is creating a more structured, review-ready accounting workflow.Kevin Thomas brings a background in corporate FP&A and a CFA perspective.

SPY vs SPY - How a MAD Magazine Comic Shaped Spy Cinema explores how a silent comic changed espionage storytelling forever. In this episode, we reveal why Spy vs. Spy matters more to spy movies than most audiences realize. This podcast episode from Cracking the Code of Spy Movies looks past punchlines. It uncovers influence, tone, and lasting ideas: Two identical spies, endless conflict, there are no winners. At first glance, Spy vs. Spy feels like pure comedy.  But beneath the humor lies a brutal truth.  There are explosions, traps, and sudden reversals.  All done with a comedic twist. Episode Focus This episode focuses on how Spy vs. Spy captured Cold War thinking. ·       Paranoia ruled every decision. ·       Escalation never stopped. ·       Trust disappeared completely.   We highlight how wordless storytelling shaped modern spy cinema. If you didn't know, there is no dialogue in Spy vs. Spy.  Also, there is no exposition: only action and consequence. This visual language now defines spy films. We recently released an episode examining how James Bond and his villains are mirrors of each other.  The episode also explores why mirrors matter in espionage stories. Listeners will hear how Spy vs. Spy predicted modern spy themes. How moral ambiguity replaced clear heroes. How technology became unreliable, and finally how victory became temporary. We also connect how Spy vs. Spy created lasting ideas that found their way into major spy franchises: James Bond, Jasone Bourne, Mission: Impossible, and modern Cold War thrillers. Rather than parody, Spy vs. Spy became a blueprint filmmakers still follow, often without realizing it. This episode is fast, focused, and insight‑driven. And it reveals how satire clarified espionage mechanics. If you love spy films, this is essential listening. If you study film storytelling, it's revealing. And if you enjoy uncovering hidden influence, it delivers. Episode Highlights ·       A comic strip predicted modern spy movie structure ·       Mirror logic that shaped heroes and villains alike ·       Silence reinforced visual spy storytelling ·       Escalation replaced resolution ·       Satire became the genre's blueprint This episode proves one thing clearly:  Spy vs. Spy understood espionage better than most movies ever did.

In this episode of the Jason Khalipa Podcast, Jason and MDV dig into what real discipline actually looks like when life gets uncomfortable.The conversation starts with a simple reminder about concessions and quickly moves into something deeper: why you can't be everything to everybody, how discipline shows up in everyday decisions, and what it means to carry yourself as a steady presence in unpredictable situations.They break down a real interaction from Men's Club, talk through sticking to a personal code, and unpack why physical capability matters — not so you can escalate, but so you don't have to. Strength, restraint, awareness, and the responsibility that comes with being capable are all on the table.This episode is about staying grounded, reading situations clearly, and showing up in a way that makes things better — not louder.Timestamps[0:00] Concessions and an important reminder[5:40] Why you can't be everything to everybody[6:45] A real conversation about discipline[10:50] A Men's Club interaction and sticking to the code[18:40] You never know what someone is going through[21:38] Being a commanding and comforting presence[26:10] Supporting law enforcement and staying physically capable[33:00] The importance of de-escalation[35:05] Why absolutes create problems[40:03] Stay tuned and train daily with JasonThanks for tuning in to the Jason Khalipa Podcast!

Two American citizens have been killed by federal agents in Minneapolis in less than three weeks. On January 24, 2026, ICU nurse Alex Pretti was shot ten times..mostly in the back...after trying to help a woman who had been shoved to the ground by ICE agents. Video shows he was disarmed before he was killed. Within hours, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem called him a "domestic terrorist." Hours after his death, Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz with a chilling demand: hand over your state's voter rolls, or the federal agents stay. In this episode, Robin connects the dots between the ICE occupation of Minneapolis, the expansion to Maine, and the Trump administration's nationwide campaign to seize voter data from 24 states. What emerges is a terrifying picture: immigration enforcement as political weapon, federal agents as a goon squad punishing dissent, and a roadmap to consolidated authoritarian power.The execution of Alex Pretti: What the videos show vs. what DHS claimsWitness affidavits: Shot in the back, after being disarmedKristi Noem and Stephen Miller's "domestic terrorist" liePam Bondi's extortion letter: Voter rolls for peaceWhy Minnesota?

Guest Author: Paul GregoryHeadline: Escalation: From General Walker to New OrleansSummary: In April 1963, a shaken Lee confessed to Marina that he had attempted to shoot General Edwin Walker. Following this, Lee moved to New Orleans to manufacture credentials as a pro-Castro radical, hoping to manipulate his way into obtaining visas for Cuba and the Soviet Union.Article: On the night of April 10, 1963, Lee returned home visibly agitated and confessed to Marina that he had fired a shot at General Edwin Walker, a planned assassination attempt that Marina kept secret to her later regret. Following this event, Lee moved to New Orleans to establish himself as a pro-Castro radical, hoping to use these fabricated credentials to secure a visa for Cuba and the Soviet Union, though his focus remained on international travel rather than a plot against Kennedy at that time.
