In a week marked by global headlines and domestic political upheaval, Axios and Politico report rare praise from Biden officials and senior Democrats for Donald Trump's bold, fast-moving foreign policy moves. From AI chip diplomacy with Saudi Arabia to high-stakes negotiations in the Middle East, Trump is garnering unexpected respect—even from across the aisle. Meanwhile, Democrats are embroiled in chaos at home, defending ICE facility raids and activist judges aiding criminal fugitives. With European media lauding Trump's tariff strategy and America's trade rebalancing, the contrast between presidential leadership and partisan dysfunction has never been more stark.

Bad Christians and Hanging Toads: Witch Crafting in Northern Spain, 1525–1675 (Cornell University Press, 2025) by Dr. Rochelle Rojas tells riveting stories of witchcraft in everyday life in early modern Navarra. Belief in witchcraft not only emerged in moments of mass panic but was woven into the fabric of village life. Some villagers believed witches sickened crops and cows with poisonous powders, others thought they engaged in diabolism and perverted sex, and still others believed they lovingly raised toads used to commit evil deeds. Most villagers, however, simply saw witches as those with reputations of being mala cristianas—bad Christians. Dr. Rojas illuminates the social webs of accusations and the pathways of village gossip that created the conditions for the witch beliefs and trials of the period. While studies of witchcraft in Spain tend to focus on the inquisitorial trials and witch panic of 1609–14, Bad Christians and Hanging Toads turns to witch trials conducted by the region's secular judiciary, Navarra's royal tribunals, tracing the prosecution of accused witches over 150 years. Using detailed evidence from trial records and neighbors' testimonies, Dr. Rojas vividly brings to life the women and men crafted as witches by their neighbors and the authorities and guides readers through the judicial process, from accusations and the examination of the evidence to sentencing and punishment. By privileging the voices of villagers throughout, Bad Christians and Hanging Toads demonstrates that the inner logic of early modern European witchcraft trials can be understood only by examining of the local, everyday aspects of witch belief. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Ireland continues to participate in the #PlantHealth4Life campaign, a European campaign to raise awareness of the critical role plant health plays in protecting food, biodiversity, and the environment. Now in its third year, the #PlantHealth4Life campaign returns with renewed focus on citizen empowerment, encouraging people across Europe including gardeners, travellers, and families - to become active plant health ambassadors. Led by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Commission (EC), the 2025 campaign is supported by the Department of Agriculture, Food & the Marine in Ireland, and will empower citizens to become plant health ambassadors, spotlighting how everyday actions can have powerful impacts on biodiversity, agriculture, and the environment. Plant Health, Biodiversity, and Economy in the EU Speaking on the campaign, garden designer and UN FAO Goodwill Ambassador for Ireland, Diarmuid Gavin, said: "Along with being places of beauty, our gardens are frontline defences in the fight for biodiversity and climate resilience. Every seed we sow responsibly and every pest we spot early is a step toward protecting Ireland's natural environment. This campaign reminds us that plant health begins at home, and we all have a role to play." Ms Louise Byrne, Chief Plant Health Officer for Ireland, added: "Protecting plant health is something every person in Ireland can contribute to. People should travel wisely and avoid bringing plants and seeds home from abroad. Practice responsible sourcing of plants with plant passports from reputable operators. Monitor plants in your garden and in the wider environment for pests and diseases and if you've concerns email PlantAndPests@agriculture.gov.ie. Empower the next generation by teaching children about the importance of plant health." Emphasising practical action and community involvement, the campaign encourages informed citizens not only to reflect but also to share their knowledge and inspire others to join in the collective effort to safeguard our ecosystems and economies. The campaign urges travellers not to bring back any plants, flowers, seeds, fruits, or vegetables from outside the EU, as these items may harbour plant pests or diseases detrimental to native flora. Additionally, consumers are advised to buy plants and seeds online only if accompanied by a valid phytosanitary or plant health certificate. Embracing good plant hygiene practices and promptly addressing signs of plant pests or diseases in home gardens and communal outdoor spaces will also prevent their spread to neighbouring plants and natural habitats. Sylvain Giraud, Head of Plant Health Unit in the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE) said: "When citizens understand the vital role of plant health in their lives - from the food on their tables to the air they breathe - they become powerful agents of change. The #PlantHealth4Life campaign is a reminder that each of us can make a meaningful difference by staying informed and making thoughtful choices that help protect what sustains us all." Giuseppe Stancanelli, Team Leader for Plant Health Risk Assessment at EFSA added: "A plant isn't just a plant - it can carry other living organisms too. In our interconnected world, plants move more than ever. That's why the EU relies on science-based risk assessment to understand and manage potential threats to plant health - helping to protect our environment, agriculture, and biodiversity. Through the #PlantHealth4Life campaign, we're raising awareness across Europe." The 2025 #PlantHealth4Life campaign is running across 26 EU Member States, five EU pre-accession countries, and Switzerland. Visit www.efsa.europa.eu/en/plh4l and discover how to safeguard plant health. About the campaign #PlantHealth4Life is a multi-year and multinational campaign developed at the request of the European Commission and based on an in-depth analysis of citizen perceptions and behaviour with respect to plant h...

The European Union isn't just complicit in the U.S. empire — it's helping drive it. In this episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek speaks with Marc Botenga, a Belgian Member of the European Parliament with the Workers' Party of Belgium, about how Europe became a willing footsoldier for NATO's wars, U.S. economic domination, and Israel's genocide in Gaza.Botenga doesn't mince words. He calls Europe's role in Gaza a European genocide. He explains why supporting peace in Ukraine is taboo, how censorship is expanding under the pretext of fighting antisemitism, and why some of the European left is drifting into militarism.As one of the only anti-imperialist voices in Brussels, Botenga breaks down what it means to resist from within the halls of EU power, how “green colonialism” is dressed up as climate policy, and why hope, and international solidarity, still matter.Watch the full interview and support independent journalism: https://www.patreon.com/BreakthroughNews

Usama Dakdok is the founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam. Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country. He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia, which is Islamic law. He first came to America in 1992.President Donald Trump is in the Middle East working out numerous agreements. Some of the actions he's taken are concerning to a number of individuals. This includes the lifting of sanctions against Syria, the signing of a $142 billion dollar arms deal with Saudi Arabia, a $1.2 trillion dollar economic commitment with Qatar and the offered gift from Qatar to provide a jumbo jet to serve as Air Force One.Meanwhile, this morning the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on nationwide injunctions including the injunction on ending what is known as "birthright citizenship." It's a move that the Council on American Islamic Relations calls, "dangerous and unconstitutional." The issue of birthright citizenship and its implications for Islam in the U.S. is just the beginning as Usama also turned his attention to the Abraham Accords, the EU providing 11 million dollars to highlight the contributions of the Qur'an and Islam to European civilization, a Canadian Islamic scholar who praised children who die for Islam (Jim provided audio), the latest concerning the exclusive Islamic city taking shape near Dallas and special news for listeners in Pennsylvania and Florida.

Send us a textEric Richard Stone has been writing songs for five decades and performing for four. It wasn't until 2014, however, when he moved to a home near Nederland and started pursuing music full-time.Stone found himself inspired by the mountain community, its nature, and its people. He feels that the environment has motivated his best work as a songwriter.Now, he's released a new album called Living The Dream, unbound by style, from folk to bluegrass to Americana to rock to pop. Nine songs are original compositions by Stone, with a tenth alternate version of the song “It Might As Well Be Rain,” and three are cover interpretations.Stone will embark on his first European tour in June for the album, but he'll gear up for that tour by playing in the area that has inspired him the most.

By privileging the voices of villagers throughout, Bad Christians and Hanging Toads demonstrates that the inner logic of early modern European witchcraft trials can be understood only by examining of the local, everyday aspects of witch belief. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Asociațiile de afaceri și-au spus punctul de vedere. Doresc ca România să își mențină parcursul euroatlantic și calea democratică. De asemenea, organizațiile de business denunță un eventual vandalism fiscal. Din aceste puncte de vedere, susținerea pentru candidatul pro-european este clară. Ieri, opt organizații de afaceri au semnat împreună un apel prin care își exprimă mai multe obiective care trebuie păstrate sau apărate de clasa politică, respectiv asigurarea unui mediu economic predictibil, protejarea pieței libere, statului de drept și securității naționale, precum și păstrarea apartenenței la drumul european și la structurile internaționale.Cele opt organizații de business sunt: Confederația Concordia, Romanian Business Leaders, Camera de Comerț Americană (AmCham), Asociația Oamenilor de Afaceri din România (AOAR), Camera de Comerț și Industrie Româno-Germană (AHK), Camera de Comerț Britanică în România, Camera de comerț Belgia, Luxemburg și Consiliul Investitorilor Străini.Să fim clari. Limbajul apelului mediului de afaceri este destul de neutru, în sensul că pledează pentru predictibilitate, pentru un traseu euro-atlantic și pentru principiile statului de drept. Și totuși, mesajul arată destul de clar susținerea către candidatul la președinție cu o viziune pro-europeană. Desigur, este vorba despre Nicușor Dan.Trebuie remarcat că organizațiile de business au dorit de data aceasta să transmită un semnal clar. Nu se întâmplă de multe ori, pentru că de obicei patronatele din România evită să ia poziții prea politice și se limitează doar la analize tehnice, economice, și la pledoarii pentru dialog. În general, organizațiile de business propun soluții economice sau ajustarea unor probleme din economie, dar stau destul de departe de declarațiile politice tranșante. Nu cred că se tem de eventuale represalii din partea unor instituții ale statului, dar nu își pot permite să închidă ușa unui politician sau a unui partid pentru că în felul acesta și-ar bloca posibilitatea dialogului după alegeri.Au fost, fără îndoială, și momente în care organizațiile de afaceri au pledat pro domo, adică pentru unele facilități sau pentru îmbunătățirea legislației, dar, în ultimă instanță, aceasta este menirea unei asociații a companiilor. Acum, însă, după foarte mult timp, organizațiile de afaceri au lăsat la o parte regula neimplicării politice și au dat un semnal clar în direcția candidatului Nicușor Dan.S-au mai implicat politic organizațiile de business? Cel mai recent, companiile și asociațiile mediului de afaceri au fost acuzate că s-au amestecat politic în anul 2017, la manifestațiile anti-Dragnea. S-a spus atunci că unii manageri și-au trimis oamenii în piață. Nu au apărut dovezi în acest sens, dar ideea a rămas.Dacă a fost un sâmbure de adevăr în informația că managerii companiilor private și-au trimis angajații în stradă, ar trebui să ne întrebăm: de ce ar face acest lucru? Răspunsul pare simplu: mediul de afaceri a crezut că politicul a depășit limitele normale și pune în pericol economia și afacerile din România.Dacă logica este corectă, astăzi ne aflăm în aceeași situație. Adică, asociațiile de afaceri știu că o deraiere de la traseul euro-atlantic ar duce economia și societatea românească spre prăpastie. Este bine că de data aceasta oamenii de afaceri și companiile semnatare ale apelului o spun destul de clar.Mai limpede s-a exprimat acum câteva zile Confederația patronală Concordia. Organizația condusă de omul de afaceri Dan Șucu a transmis un manifest care include trei cereri imperative pentru cei doi candidați aflați în turul doi al alegerilor prezidențiale.Astfel, prima cerință era cea enunțată și ieri și anume că trebuie păstrat drumul european și atlantic al României. În caz contrar, Concordia consideră că nivelul de trai al populației ar scădea. A doua cerință este un avertisment ca politicienii și guvernul să nu apeleze la un nou vandalism fiscal, termenul fiind suficient de sugestiv. În fine, a treia cerință este respectarea democrației, libertății, proprietății private și domniei legii. Acestea sunt condiții necesare pentru continuarea investițiilor private. În concluzie, de data aceasta, organizațiile de afaceri au vorbit tranșant. Cine are urechi de auzit să audă.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHWe meet Nick, a New York police officer who desperately wants to be a detective but keeps failing the test. He's married to Audrey, a hairdresser who dreams of visiting Europe—a promise Nick made at their wedding but has yet to fulfill. After their 15th wedding anniversary dinner, Audrey calls him out on it, only for Nick to surprise her with the news that he's actually booked the trip. (He totally hasn't—but sometimes you gotta spend thousands of dollars to keep up a lie.) On the flight, Audrey meets billionaire Charles Cavendish, who invites her to a gathering aboard his family's yacht. When Nick hears about this, he's like, “No way. I have a whole thing planned.” But when that plan turns out to involve a packed tour bus, he gives in. Aboard the yacht, Nick and Audrey meet quite the cast of characters: Malcolm Quince (Cavendish's billionaire uncle), Suzi (Cavendish's ex-fiancée and now Quince's wife), Quince's son Tobey, actress Grace Ballard, a colonel and his bodyguard, a rapper, and a race car driver. Later that evening, Quince arrives and announces that Suzi—his new wife—will now be his sole heir, cutting everyone else out of the will. Naturally, this does not go over well. Just before the new will can be signed, the lights go out—and when they come back on, Quince is found stabbed through the heart. Nick jumps into detective mode and tells everyone to stay on the yacht. That night, Tobey is found dead in what looks like a suicide. When they arrive in Monte Carlo, a local investigator boards the yacht to question everyone. The other guests point fingers at the “random Americans.” The investigator tells Nick and Audrey he knows they're guilty and promises to prove it. At the Monaco Grand Prix, Nick and Audrey begin their own investigation to clear their names, interrogating the other guests. That night, the colonel's bodyguard lures them to his room and drops a bombshell: Quince once married the colonel's fiancée while the colonel was in a coma. She later died in childbirth. Just as things get juicy, someone knocks. Nick and Audrey hide, and when they come out, the bodyguard has been shot—he dies before naming the killer. Audrey is shaken when a news broadcast reveals that Nick isn't really a detective. She storms off and is picked up by Cavendish, who urges her to leave Monte Carlo immediately. Eventually, everyone winds up at a lake. Nick and Audrey reconcile and start to suspect that Cavendish and Suzi are romantically involved and conspiring to split Quince's fortune. While fleeing a masked attacker with a blow dart, they run into Carlos, the race car driver. Suzi is killed with a dart, and Nick and Carlos chase the killer but lose them. Nick and Audrey head to Quince's mansion to confront Cavendish—only to find him poisoned. They call the investigator and gather the remaining guests, but everyone seems to have an alibi. Nick and Audrey then reveal that Grace, the actress, is the mastermind. She's actually the daughter who was believed to have died in childbirth. She convinced Tobey to kill their father and then killed him herself. When she tries to escape, Nick shoots her in the arm. But the mystery isn't over—Carlos is revealed to be the second killer, seeking revenge on Quince for the injuries that left his father disabled. Carlos takes the investigator hostage and tries to escape in a car, but Nick and Audrey stop him—with help from that overcrowded tour bus they skipped earlier. In the aftermath, the investigator thanks them and offers to help Nick finally earn his promotion. The couple continues their European adventure.

Bad Christians and Hanging Toads: Witch Crafting in Northern Spain, 1525–1675 (Cornell University Press, 2025) by Dr. Rochelle Rojas tells riveting stories of witchcraft in everyday life in early modern Navarra. Belief in witchcraft not only emerged in moments of mass panic but was woven into the fabric of village life. Some villagers believed witches sickened crops and cows with poisonous powders, others thought they engaged in diabolism and perverted sex, and still others believed they lovingly raised toads used to commit evil deeds. Most villagers, however, simply saw witches as those with reputations of being mala cristianas—bad Christians. Dr. Rojas illuminates the social webs of accusations and the pathways of village gossip that created the conditions for the witch beliefs and trials of the period. While studies of witchcraft in Spain tend to focus on the inquisitorial trials and witch panic of 1609–14, Bad Christians and Hanging Toads turns to witch trials conducted by the region's secular judiciary, Navarra's royal tribunals, tracing the prosecution of accused witches over 150 years. Using detailed evidence from trial records and neighbors' testimonies, Dr. Rojas vividly brings to life the women and men crafted as witches by their neighbors and the authorities and guides readers through the judicial process, from accusations and the examination of the evidence to sentencing and punishment. By privileging the voices of villagers throughout, Bad Christians and Hanging Toads demonstrates that the inner logic of early modern European witchcraft trials can be understood only by examining of the local, everyday aspects of witch belief. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

TAKE A LISTEN Trump Just Got Britain To Hit China, UK Politicians Say  British politicians are expressing alarm that the new U.S.–UK trade deal gives President Donald Trump the power to block Chinese investments in critical British infrastructure. The deal announced last week requires the UK to “promptly meet U.S. requirements” to shield supply chains and “relevant production facilities” from foreign investment. If the European country does not meet these requirements, the U.S. can reimpose tariffs, effectively using trade pressure to dictate which countries can invest in the UK's core infrastructure. That clause triggered immediate backlash from British lawmakers and media, who say the U.S. now has a de facto “veto” over foreign investment — specifically Chinese money flowing into the UK's steel and aluminum sectors.   “Washington wants the UK and others to peel away from Chinese trade and investment, especially in sensitive areas like steel,” said Allie Renison, a former trade official, speaking to the FT.

Fort Edmonton is a settlement that dates back to the true beginnings of Canada becoming an official country and to Alberta becoming a province. This would be a series of trading posts that were built on the north bank of the North Saskatchewan River. It played a key role in history with both European settlers and the natives that lived on the land. Today, this is a cultural center and museum that reputedly has unexplained activity. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of Fort Edmonton.

Story at-a-glance New research confirms that the sodium-potassium ratio, not just sodium alone, is essential for blood pressure regulation. Increased potassium intake significantly lowers blood pressure, even when sodium remains high Potassium lowers blood pressure by helping your body get rid of excess sodium, activating early kidney responses, and reducing hormones that raise blood pressure Studies have also challenged universal salt restriction guidelines and showed that there's no clear benefit to cutting salt below 5 grams a day. This has led European guidelines to withdraw blanket sodium limits Most Americans eat almost twice as much sodium as potassium, even though it's recommended to eat five times more potassium than sodium. This is mostly because processed foods make up 70% of sodium intake For optimal blood pressure management, aim for about 3,500 milligrams (mg) of sodium daily from natural sources, as well as 3,400 to 5,000 mg of potassium from whole foods like spinach, beet greens, and oranges

David Moyes' Everton overpowered Fulham to claim a 3-1 victory and quash their European hopes. With only a London derby and a home game against Manchester City left, Jack and Joe consider whether there is anything left to play for in the 24/25 season. They reflect on why Fulham were unable to hold on to their lead once again and didn't push aggressively towards the finish line. They preview the next fixture against Brentford and consider why there's a growing trend with Silva's side dropping off in the final third of the season.--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.
