Podcast appearances and mentions of Fidel Castro

In CAN SCIENTISTS SUCCEED WHERE POLITICIANS FAIL? Nobel laureate Peter Agre, MD, recounts his journey from a physician-scientist specializing in malaria research to a leading voice for scientific collaboration and consensus across nations, regardless of ideological and political divisions. Using medical science as his global diplomatic pass, Dr. Agre has traveled to countries led by autocratic regimes hostile to the United States, including North Korea and Iran. During his visits, he forged close, collaborative relationships with local scientists, which led to meetings with ambassadors, presidents, and other rulers—including  tribal leaders in Zambia and Cuba's Fidel Castro.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Durante casi cuatro décadas, la dictadura de Francisco Franco definió las relaciones de España con el mundo. Desde su alineamiento con el Eje durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta los pactos con Estados Unidos en plena Guerra Fría, pasando por el aislamiento internacional, la descolonización en África o las tensiones con Gibraltar, el régimen franquista construyó una política exterior pragmática y cambiante, siempre subordinada a la supervivencia del dictador. Hoy en día, herencias como las bases militares estadounidenses, las relaciones con el mundo árabe o el conflicto del Sáhara siguen siendo fundamentales para entender la España contemporánea. Hoy en "No es el fin del mundo" hablamos de la geopolítica del franquismo. Libros recomendados: "La política exterior del Franquismo", de Julio Gil Pecharromán "La política exterior de España: de 1800 hasta hoy", coord. Juan Carlos Pereira "Yo podría haber sido Fidel Castro", de Pablo Batalla Cueto "Franco", de Julián Casanova "Bajo el manto del Caudillo", de José Luis Rodríguez Jiménez

El dictador buscó en América Latina el apoyo y el reconocimiento que le negaban Estados Unidos y Europa. Sorprendemente, su régimen de derechas apoyó a los gobiernos de Fidel Castro en Cuba y Salvador Allende en Chile.

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this 16 part series. This is Part -15. Events happened in the last 2 days of Che's life - Final Encounter - Captured by Military - Last 24 hours - Got fired in point blank range - What happened on the last day? are covered in this episode.

In questa puntata: il più grande Chi C'Ha Visto di sempre, c'erano una volta Papa Woytila, Fidel Castro e Lele Mora, qualcuno parla di patrimoniale ma certo non La Verità, Ric ci racconta il suo compagno di cella ideale, Lino Banfi si rivede in Paulo Dybala, Maurizio Gasparri ha preso troppe botte in testa (se lo dice lui chi siamo noi per dargli torto), Mario Sechi in difesa delle gemelle Kessler, e tanto, tantissimo altro.

Paul Gregory reveals that in April 1963, Lee Harvey Oswald, agitated and shaken, confessed to Marina that he attempted to assassinate General Edwin Walker in Dallas. Marina found a note giving her directions if he failed to return. Though she realized he was deeply disturbed, she kept the event secret until the Warren Commission. Shortly after, Oswald moved to New Orleans, seeking to build credentials as a "radical operative" for Fidel Castro, hoping to secure a Cuban visa that would lead to a Soviet visa. Paul Gregory notes that despite his growing delusions, there was absolutely no indication whatsoever that he was planning to assassinate the president of the United States at this time. Guest: Paul Gregory.

Entrevistamos a Carlos Bustelo, exministro de Industria y figura clave en el equipo económico que lideró la Transición. Un relato imprescindible. Carlos Bustelo y García del Real fue ministro de Industria y Energía entre 1979 y 1980, siendo presidente del Gobierno Adolfo Suárez. También ostentó la presidencia del Instituto Nacional de Industria entre 1981 y 1982. Además, fue economista de la OCDE en París entre 1963 y 1965, director ejecutivo del Fondo Monetario Internacional entre 1968 y 1973, y consejero de numerosas empresas, entre ellas, ACESA, Banesto o el Banco de España. Esta semana, visita Economía Para Quedarte Sin Amigos para reflexionar sobre cómo fue, en el terreno económico, aquella Transición ahora tan denostada. Y hubo de todo. Porque, como asegura Bustelo, para la economía española "Franco murió en el peor momento posible", justo cuando la crisis del petróleo golpeaba toda Europa. Nuria Richart y Domingo Soriano le preguntarán ¿cómo era la economía de España en 1975-77? ¿Qué retos afrontaba nuestra economía? ¿Qué se ha hecho bien y qué no en estos cincuenta años? ¿Cuáles fueron los personajes clave de aquellos años? Bustelo, que tiene una memoria colosal, conjuga una triple faceta muy difícil de encontrar: la del protagonista que estuvo en primera fila; la del economista teórico; y la del español de a pie que también vivió aquella época. Por eso su relato sabe combinar el análisis del académico, con las anécdotas del que lo sufrió o lo disfrutó. Como ese día en que tuvo que maniobrar con los americanos para que la General Motors viniera a España o ese otro viaje en el que tuvo que parar los pies a Fidel Castro. Todo un personaje para recordar unos años que casi siempre son muy mal explicados.Música Esta semana, el protagonista de nuestra selección musical es el grupo Beastie Boys. Y estos son los temas que hemos escuchado: "Fight for your right" "No sleep until Brooklyn" "Intergalactic" "Sabotage"

Enfrentados a un proceso de expropiación por parte de las autoridades municipales, un grupo de vecinos de Madrid apostó por declarar su "independencia" de España y buscar el apoyo de Fidel Castro, quien los invitó a La Habana.

https://youtu.be/grdO4L8k_WM En los años 70, la Brigada Antonio Maceo parecía abrir un puente entre Cuba y el exilio cubanoamericano. Pero detrás de ese gesto de aparente reconciliación se movía una maquinaria de propaganda e inteligencia diseñada para dividir a la comunidad en el exterior y reescribir la memoria colectiva.Este video explora cómo una nueva generación de cubanoamericanos, marcada por la Operación Pedro Pan y la efervescencia de la Nueva Izquierda en EE.UU., fue utilizada por el régimen para construir una narrativa alternativa. Conectaremos esta historia con el contexto de la Guerra Fría, la influencia del G-2 y las profundas fracturas que aún hoy persisten en la diáspora cubana.Si quieres entender el exilio cubano más allá de los mitos, y descubrir cómo el poder manipula la identidad y la memoria histórica, este episodio es clave.PRIMERA PARTE: https://youtu.be/grdO4L8k_WM

9 अक्टूबर, 2025 को फ़िलिस्तीन इज़रायल के बीच Egypt में Ceasefire deal साइन हुई. अगले ही दिन इज़रायली कैबिनेट ने इसे पास किया. हालांकि वो अलग बात है, कि उसके बाद भी वहां Israeli Airstrike की ख़बरें फिर आईं. अब गाज़ा से ऐसी तस्वीरें आ रही हैं, जहां लोग बड़ी संख्या में अपने घर लौट रहे हैं. लेकिन घरों के नाम पर वहां बचा है मलबा. बड़ी दिक्कत ये है कि उन्हें इसी मलबे को पहचानकर पता लगाना है, कि हां यहां उनका घर था. यहां उनका पड़ोस. कईयों को तो उसी मलबे में दबे अपने परिवार भी ढूंढने पड़ रहे हैं.. ये दृश्य सोचने पर मजबूर तो करते हैं कि आखिर ये मसला यहां तक पहुंचा कैसे? ज़रूरत महसूस होती है गाज़ा के पूरे Crisis की तरफ़ दो कदम पीछे हटकर देखने की और क्या ये सीज़फायर जो इससे पहले भी इतनी दफ़ा हुआ, फिर ब्रेक हुआ. क्या वो अब Survive कर पाएगा? लेकिन इस बार फिलिस्तीन के मुद्दे पर बात करने के लिए कोई प्रोफेसर या कोई डिप्लोमेट नहीं आए हैं. इस बार पढ़ाकू नितिन World Affairs में हमारे मेहमान हैं, KC Tyagi. जिन्हें ज़्यादातर लोग समाजवादी आंदोलन के बड़े नेता और पूर्व राज्यसभा सांसद के तौर पर जानते हैं. लेकिन वो फिलिस्तीन के हक में बात करने वाले International Institution League of Parliamentarian for Al-quds and Palestine के मेंबर भी हैं. प्रड्यूसर: मानव देव रावत साउंड मिक्स: अमन पाल

Billy Corben goes over the week that was, despite the fact that he booked former Miami commissioner Alex Díaz de la Portilla to be a guest on the show and for two consecutive weeks has no-showed. As you'll tell from this episode...Billy was less than thrilled. Billy also talks about outgoing Miami mayor Francis Suarez comparing New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani to former Cuba dictator Fidel Castro.

https://youtu.be/PjuiBw8rsiI ¿Qué cambió realmente entre Cuba y EE.UU. desde los años 70 hasta el deshielo de Obama? La historia, más que repetirse, se recicla.En este video te llevo a través de una reconstrucción histórica del proceso de “institucionalización” del régimen cubano en los años 70, la manipulación del exilio y el llamado Diálogo del 78. Te mostraré cómo el guión usado por el régimen con Obama en 2016 fue solo una versión remasterizada del mismo libreto utilizado en plena Guerra Fría.Conectamos la creación de la Constitución de 1976, la fachada del Parlamento, la profesionalización del aparato cultural tras el Quinquenio Gris, y la rehabilitación simbólica del exilio como estrategia para captar divisas y legitimar al poder. Analizamos también cómo el Ministerio de Cultura sirvió como canalizador de oxígeno sin permitir libertad, y cómo la radio estadounidense logró colarse por la grieta del muro ideológico cubano.Este episodio profundiza en el origen simbólico, económico y político que producirá los sucesos de la embajada del Perú y el Éxodo del Mariel, revelando por qué el cubano fue, una vez más, excluido de la mesa de negociación. Cuba y EE.UU.: El mismo guión desde 1978 hasta Obama. Del Mariel al Deshielo: ¿Por qué Cuba nunca cambia de verdad?. Cuba y el exilio: Reconciliación o manipulación política?

It's Friday, October 24th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Spanish priest acquitted on hate crime charges for criticizing radical Islam A Spanish Catholic priest who was facing three years in prison for making critical remarks about radical Islam nearly a decade ago has been acquitted, reports The Christian Post. The advocacy organization Abogados Cristianos announced in an X post last Friday that “The Malaga Court [acquitted] Pastor Custodio [Ballester], prosecuted for criticizing Islam: there is no hate crime.” In 2016, Ballester was charged with saying, “Islam does not allow for dialogue. You either believe or you are an infidel who must be subdued one way or another.” The Rev. Franklin Graham praised Ballester's acquittal as “good news” in an X post on Monday.  A report published last month by the Spanish Observatory for Religious Freedom and Conscience found that 69% of the attacks were directed at Christians, while instances of antisemitism grew by 38% compared to 2023 and had increased by 867% since 2022. Senator Schumer's shutdown flip flop, afraid of an AOC challenge Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Minority Leader of the U.S. Senate, has historically opposed government shutdowns. He opposed a shutdown on October 16, 2013. SCHUMER: “What if I persuaded my caucus to say I'm going to shut the government down. I'm going to not pay our bills unless I get my way. It's a politics of idiocy, of confrontation, of paralysis.” Then, Senator Schumer opposed a government shutdown on January 25, 2019. SCHUMER: “Shutting down government over a policy difference is self-defeating. We can never hold American workers hostage again.” And, as recently as March 13th of this year, Senator Schumer opposed a government shutdown then. SCHUMER:  “While the [Continuing Resolution] bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse. Therefore, I will vote to keep the government open and not shut it down.” But now, Democratic Senator Schumer is leading the fight for the government shutdown, driven by the AOC/Sanders wing of his party. Listen to CNN's John Berman's introduction of his recent appearance. BERMAN: “Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who joins us now from Capitol Hill. Senator, I was saying that every Republican who's gone on TV the last, what nine hours or so, has called this the ‘Schumer Shutdown.” Later, Berman said this. BERMAN: “Everyone in Congress right now, on the Republican side, is really pointing the finger squarely at you personally. And one of the things they're saying is, this is about politics in New York, that you might face a primary from Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.” In fact, Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said as much. KENNEDY: “Senator Schumer, his relationship with the truth is very casual. The truth is that this is a political shutdown. Senator Schumer is nervous as a pregnant nun about losing his re-election to the socialist wing of his party led by Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, which is in control. “Now, we will eventually come out of this shutdown. Here's how I think it will happen. Senator Schumer is a smart man. He's been around a long time. His first car was a chariot. Washington is all he's ever known his entire life. He knows he's on shaky ground here in terms of policy. “So, here's how I think it'll end. Schumer will go to six or eight of his colleagues, Democrats of course, and say, ‘I want you to vote to lift the shutdown.' He'll say, ‘I can't vote with you. I've got to appear to be tough. I may even have to criticize you, but' -- wink wink, nod nod – ‘I'm trying to make the loon wing of the party love me, but you bail me out here.' But he's got to be careful with that, because he doesn't want it to look like a mutiny, because then he looks even weaker.” CA teacher to ICE: “They are not the only ones with guns in this city.” The Department of Homeland Security will refer a California teacher for a possible criminal probe after he made threatening comments toward immigration officials, reports WorldNetDaily.com. Listen to Los Angeles Unified School District history teacher Ron Gochez. GOCHEZ: “Don't forget where you're standing. This is South Central Los Angeles. They are not the only ones with guns in this city. They're not the only ones that don't forget that. And I don't say that because we're calling it for violence. I'm saying that because the people have every right to defend themselves against masked, unidentified gunmen with AR-15s and other military rifles.” Gochez founded the Los Angeles chapter of Union del Barrio—a revolutionary socialist movement that demands an end to capitalism and open borders from Alaska to Chile. The group sees communist dictators like Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, and Che Guevara as heroes. DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said that the teacher's comments endanger ICE agents' lives. New Bible story book injects sexual perversion, gender confusion, and woke ideology And finally, a new children's book of Bible stories claims that the Bible has "made-up" stories and events in its pages, drawing criticism from Focus on the Family, reports The Christian Post. The Just Love Story Bible, authored by Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis and Rev. Dr. Shannon Harris, reimagines 52 stories from the Old and New Testaments, weaving in sexual perversion, gender confusion, and woke ideology. For them, the Bible is not authoritative; they are. In the book's introduction to Genesis, the woke authors, who are part of the leftist Presbyterian Church (USA), write, "Some of the stories had made-up characters and events. Others were about real people and things that really happened." Harris, an associate dean at Auburn Theological Seminary in New York City, explained her motivation behind the project at a Q&A event for the book in September. HARRIS: “I wanted to do this project with Jackie, because when my kids were little, it was really hard to find a children's Bible that I didn't feel like I had to change some of the words. Like there might be stories that talked about God, like God was a boy (laughing) and only used kind of male language for God. Or they might tell a story, but they wouldn't tell enough about the story to understand whether it was about a made-up character or a real person.” Later, to the audience of parents and young children, she read an excerpt from her woke Just Love Story Bible in which she reinterpreted the plagues and other punishments that God had sent to get Pharoah's attention or the attention of His chosen people, the Jews. HARRIS: “Four natural disasters, one after the other. Well, the prophet and the people thought they were to blame. They thought that the disasters were God's way of punishing them. They didn't know that when bad things happen, like swarms of bugs, floods, earthquakes or tornadoes, it's not God's punishment, but it's easy to worry when bad things happen, to feel like God's angry at you, even when that's not true.” Inspired by the Joel 2:28 passage, Harris also imagined what a young person might envision. HARRIS: “So what did the young people prophesy back then? Perhaps one of them bravely announced to the prophets, priests and people: ‘I don't believe that our loving God sends terrible things to teach us a lesson.'” In an op-ed published by Focus on the Family's news arm, Daily Citizen, Paul Batura warned families about The Just Love Story Bible. He said, "[T]he motives of the authors appear broader and far more dangerous than merely trumpeting diversity. They also want to sow seeds of doubt in children's minds that the events depicted in the Bible are literally true, including the Resurrection.” He added, "Questioning the accuracy and authority of the Bible is hardly a new exercise, but so blatantly and openly selling such a heretical interpretation of God's Word to children undermines God's sacred Word in a particularly dangerous and destructive way." Indeed, 2 Timothy 4:3-4 says, “For a time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths."  Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, October 24th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this multi part series. This is Part -11. Events happened in 1965 (April to November) - Travel to Congo Via Tanzania - Fake news about his whereabouts - Mother's death in his absence - Futile exercises to motivate Congo fighters - Retreat with failure are covered in this episode.

https://youtu.be/aQrDAXSKyL8 Mientras Cuba enfrenta apagones, hambre y escasez de medicinas, el ejército cubano maneja un imperio millonario oculto a plena vista.Una reciente investigación del Miami Herald reveló documentos financieros secretos que destapan la verdad detrás del conglomerado GAESA, la estructura empresarial controlada por las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Cuba. Este “Estado dentro del Estado” opera con total impunidad, acumulando una fortuna que supera los 18 mil millones de dólares, mientras el cubano promedio sobrevive con salarios de apenas 5 a 16 dólares al mes.GAESA controla el turismo, las remesas, las gasolineras, los supermercados, la logística portuaria y hasta bancos propios, sin rendir cuentas ni al parlamento ni al Banco Central. En un país donde escasea el arroz y la leche, esta élite militar invierte millones en hoteles vacíos y evade impuestos descaradamente. ¿Cómo es posible que exista tanto dinero guardado, mientras los hospitales colapsan y los niños pasan hambre?Este video analiza no solo la dimensión económica del saqueo, sino su impacto moral y ético: un retrato devastador de cómo el poder absoluto destruye naciones desde adentro.GRACIAS AL ARTÍCULO: Where is Cuba's money?

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Bill O'Reilly about his new book Confronting Evil; The Rise of Evil in America and the World; how apathy and ignorance allow destructive ideologies to thrive; the dangers of progressive movements that dismiss morality and justice; the failure of schools to teach civics and truth; why O'Reilly believes 15% of people are inherently evil and the rest must choose between good or indifference; and the importance of confronting evil through truth, courage, and moral clarity; the moral collapse in American politics; how most politicians lack the integrity to provide moral guidance; the decline of religion and traditional values among younger generations; the erosion of law and order in New York City; the dangers of socialist policies under candidates like Zohran Mamdani, whom O'Reilly compares to Fidel Castro; his dark prediction for what will happen to NYC under Mamdani's leadership; how rising taxes, crime, and corruption are driving people and businesses to flee New York City; and the devastating social and economic consequences of progressive leadership; why he believes Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is worse than Gavin Newsom; Pritzker's obsession with hating Trump and his failures in addressing Chicago's violent crime crisis; his rejection of Trump's offer to deploy federal help to combat gang violence; the culture of denial among left-wing leaders ignoring Antifa and lawlessness in cities like Portland; the collapse of legacy media and lack of true debate on cable news; how censorship and echo chambers have weakened journalism; and O'Reilly's reflections on mentoring figures like Jesse Watters; and much more.

https://youtu.be/zkkNaulejRs ¿Existe “el pueblo”? Mises contra el mito revolucionario cubano. ¿Qué pensaría Ludwig von Mises de la Cuba revolucionaria? En este video desmonto el mito del colectivismo castrista usando el lente del individualismo metodológico.La Revolución Cubana ha sido vendida como una gesta del “pueblo unido”, pero ¿quién es realmente ese pueblo? ¿Qué pasa con los individuos cuando se los disuelve en una masa sin rostro? A través del pensamiento de Ludwig von Mises, exploramos cómo el régimen cubano convirtió al colectivo en sujeto político, negando al individuo, su conciencia y su libertad.Desde los fusilamientos justificados por la voluntad popular hasta la ética del resentimiento que impulsó la expropiación masiva, este video expone cómo el castrismo institucionalizó la obediencia y castigó la disidencia. Preguntas incómodas: ¿quién aplaudía los actos de repudio?, ¿quién se benefició del saqueo disfrazado de justicia social?Este análisis es un llamado a recuperar la voz individual en una sociedad entrenada para repetir lemas. Porque como decía Mises, “solo los individuos actúan”. Pensar por uno mismo, en Cuba, es un acto (contra) revolucionario.

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this multi part series. This is Part -9. Events happened in Early 1965 - Background of Africa Wars - Congo Situation - 3 Months trip to African Countries - Grand Exit from Cuba are covered in this episode.

https://youtu.be/VQbBuGEYI0o Una nueva filtración de documentos oficiales destapa los viajes de Vilma Rodríguez Castro, nieta de Raúl Castro, a Estados Unidos entre 2012 y 2016 usando pasaporte diplomático. Mientras millones de cubanos soñaban con salir de la isla, la élite disfrutaba de privilegios reservados a una casta.Los archivos confirman al menos cinco viajes a Nueva York, autorizados por el MINREX y aceptados por inmigración estadounidense, bajo la narrativa de “intercambio cultural”. Desde mansiones de Airbnb hasta fotos de lujo en redes sociales, esta filtración expone la distancia obscena entre el discurso oficial de igualdad y la vida de los que gobiernan Cuba.La historia no solo revela la hipocresía del régimen, sino también la indignación selectiva de Estados Unidos, que sanciona a generales mientras permite que los nietos de la cúpula paseen libremente por su territorio. ¿Es realmente una lucha entre dictadura y democracia, o un teatro donde ambos Estados beben del mismo vino?FUENTE: Este VIDEO se basa en la información inicialmente publicada en Martí Noticias por Mario J. Pentón, en su reportaje 'Nieta de Raúl Castro viajó en varias ocasiones a EEUU con pasaporte diplomático y gastos pagos'.

Em abril de 1961, um grupo de exilados cubanos anticastristas, treinados e apoiados pela CIA, tentou invadir Cuba pela Baía dos Porcos, no que ficou conhecido como uma das mais emblemáticas derrotas militares da Guerra Fria. A operação, lançada poucos meses após John F. Kennedy assumir a presidência dos Estados Unidos, pretendia derrubar o governo socialista de Fidel Castro, mas terminou em fracasso após apenas três dias de combates. As forças cubanas, preparadas e armadas pelo Bloco do Leste, rapidamente derrotaram os invasores, consolidando o poder da Revolução Cubana e ampliando as tensões entre Washington e Havana. Convidamos Vitor Soares para explicar como se deu a Invasão da Baía dos Porcos, seus desdobramentos políticos e o impacto desse episódio na consolidação do regime de Fidel Castro e no acirramento da Guerra Fria na América Latina.Financiamento coletivo do jogo Imperialismo: América CLICANDO AQUI⁠Adquira o curso História: da pesquisa à escrita por apenas R$ 49,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso A Operação Historiográfica para Michel de Certeau por apenas R$ 24,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso O ofício do historiador para Marc Bloch por apenas R$ 29,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colabore com nosso trabalho em ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠apoia.se/obrigahistoria⁠⁠⁠Calor chegando, hora de usar INSIDER!

https://youtu.be/1M5fmc0-9pQ Las UMAP en Cuba fueron verdaderos campos de concentración bajo el régimen de Fidel Castro, donde miles sufrieron reeducación forzada entre 1965 y 1968.Este documental revela con profundidad la historia olvidada de las Unidades Militares de Ayuda a la Producción (UMAP), un sistema estatal de persecución y represión en Cuba. Lejos de ser simples errores, estas unidades funcionaron como campos de trabajo forzado diseñados para suprimir a homosexuales, religiosos, artistas, intelectuales y a todo aquel que no encajara en el modelo revolucionario.Con imágenes inéditas y documentos oficiales, exploramos cómo estas prácticas fueron institucionalizadas con respaldo del Partido Comunista. Se exponen testimonios, torturas, experimentos “correctivos” y el papel del adoctrinamiento político en la deshumanización de más de 30.000 ciudadanos cubanos.La historia de Paul Kidd, periodista canadiense que arriesgó todo para sacar la verdad al mundo, marca el inicio de un relato de horror y valentía. También abordamos cómo la presión internacional contribuyó al cierre de los campos, aunque muchas heridas permanecen abiertas.Si te interesa la historia oculta del totalitarismo y la resistencia silenciosa de quienes lo enfrentaron, este documental es imprescindible.

The Trump administration has canceled funding for nearly half of the federally backed megaprojects designed to pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere — a major blow to the U.S. direct air capture industry that had flourished under former President Joe Biden. Corbin Hiar from POLITICO's E&E News breaks down how these cuts could reshape the future of U.S. carbon removal, why the projects matter for climate goals, and what this decision signals about the administration's approach to energy innovation. Plus, the Supreme Court on Friday said it will take up an appeal from Exxon Mobil as the energy giant attempts to recoup economic losses caused when its Cuban assets were seized by Fidel Castro's revolution in the early 1960s.

On January 8, 1959, Fidel Castro and his ragtag army marched into Havana and proclaimed victory in the Cuban revolution. Much of the world knew Cuba primarily from its 1930 megahit "El Manicero" ("The Peanut Vendor") and from the mambo craze of the 1950's. After Castro came to power, the economic, political and cultural doors between Cuba and the U.S. would soon be shut. The doors opened briefly for tours by Cuban artists in the U.S. during the Carter and Clinton administrations. In this broadcast, we savor sounds from the pre-Revolutionary golden age of Cuban music that sets the scene for the international success of Cuban music. We illustrate how popular music in Africa and the Americas is not imaginable without the influence of Cuban music--copied and adapted on three continents. We'll hear the stories and rare recordings of such core styles as son - as well as luminaries like Beny Moré, Arsenio Rodriguez, Celia Cruz and the Sexteto Habanero; along with less well known artists.

Yale historian and memoirist Carlos Eire recounts his extraordinary journey from being an 11-year-old Cuban boy in Operation Peter Pan—sent to the United States to escape Fidel Castro's regime—to becoming a National Book Award–winning author and chaired professor at Yale. Eire discusses the painful separation from his family, the challenges of assimilation, and the lifelong tension between his Cuban and American identities, themes he explores in his acclaimed memoirs Waiting for Snow in Havana and Learning to Die in Miami. The conversation also delves into Eire's recent book They Flew: A History of the Impossible, which examines early modern testimonies of levitation, bilocation, and miracles, and how belief, culture, and skepticism shaped their reception. Eire also reflects on Cuban history, the failures of the Castro regime, the broader Hispanic experience in America, and the enduring clash between materialist skepticism and openness to mystery.

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA podcast is one of the most influential artists working in the world right now, TANIA BRUGUERA! Hailed for her installation and participatory performance works that blur the boundaries between art and reality, Bruguera has dedicated her life to making work that explores freedom of expression, immigration, totalitarianism, and human rights. She has brought attention to the strict control of Cuban authorities by confronting visitors at Tate Modern with performer police officers on horseback, to setting up an open debate on an official-looking stage at the Havana Biennale to give people license to say what they want for one minute… Her work – often set in the framework of the theatre – has continued to push art to its limits and grant space for important and difficult conversations to take place. As she has said: “In a way, when you talk about politics, there is a lot of theatre involved. And what I'm trying to do with my art is how can we break the classic theatre where everything has already been decided, into a place where people can add something to the discourse”. Born in Cuba in 1968, Bruguera was raised during the era of Fidel Castro by a diplomat and minister father in the Castro government. She moved three times – to Paris, Lebanon, and Panama – before returning to Havana, where she graduated from the Escuela de Arte San Alejandro, and would go onto complete MFAs in painting and performance in Havana and Chicago. Since then, Bruguera has researched both the promise and failings of the Cuban Revolution, in performance pieces that allow her audience to unite and gather together and see and experience what lies behind governmental propaganda. Not only do these works speak universally, transcending time and place, but they are a great comment on the promises and failings of institutions and governments today. The founder of the first performance studies programme in Latin America, known as the Behaviour Art School, Bruguera is also Senior Lecturer in Media & Performance, Theater, Dance & Media at Harvard University, where we are recording with her today, and, as an artist I have admired for a very young age, I really can't wait to find out more. --- My new book, How To Live An Artful Life: https://www.waterstones.com/book/how-to-live-an-artful-life/katy-hessel/9781529155204 --- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Nada Smiljanic Music by Ben Wetherfield

https://youtu.be/vuODdQ1RsLc La protesta estudiantil en Cuba por el tarifazo de ETECSA marca un antes y un después. ¿Estamos ante el inicio de algo mayor?El aumento desmedido de las tarifas telefónicas por parte de ETECSA —la empresa estatal de telecomunicaciones— ha generado una oleada de indignación sin precedentes entre los estudiantes universitarios en Cuba. Lo que comenzó como una reacción ante la dolarización parcial del acceso a internet y precios inalcanzables para la mayoría de la población, se convirtió en un fenómeno social que desafía directamente las estructuras del poder cubano.Este video analiza cómo una protesta descentralizada, sin líderes ni ideologías fijas, logró poner en jaque a la dirigencia oficialista y a la Federación Estudiantil Universitaria (FEU), usualmente aliada del régimen. Desde demandas legales inéditas hasta huelgas académicas, los estudiantes cubanos reclaman acceso a la información, justicia y dignidad, en un contexto donde el precio de alzar la voz puede ser la carrera universitaria o algo peor.Más allá de los hechos, este episodio sirve como punto de partida para reflexionar sobre los mecanismos del control social, el rol del miedo y la importancia de identificar causas que realmente movilicen a la acción colectiva.

https://youtu.be/lWu9FZCCm6M ¿Y si la Revolución Cubana nunca hubiera ocurrido? Descubre el camino alternativo que pudo llevar a Cuba al desarrollo.En este video exploramos un escenario contrafactual: ¿cómo sería Cuba hoy si la Revolución de 1959 no hubiera triunfado? Utilizando métodos rigurosos como el "Synthetic Control Method" y estudios académicos recientes, analizamos datos históricos, económicos y sociales para reconstruir el posible destino de la isla.Antes de 1959, Cuba destacaba en América Latina por su alto PIB per cápita, baja mortalidad infantil y una infraestructura avanzada. Sin embargo, tras la Revolución, el país experimentó estancamiento económico, dependencia de subsidios externos y pérdida de libertades.Estudios como "Measuring the role of the 1959 revolution on Cuba's economic performance" y "The Cuban Revolution and Infant Mortality: A Synthetic Control Approach" muestran que, sin la Revolución, Cuba podría haber alcanzado niveles de desarrollo similares a los de países como España o Puerto Rico.Acompáñanos en este análisis profundo que cuestiona narrativas oficiales y presenta una visión basada en evidencia sobre lo que pudo ser el futuro de Cuba.

HEADLINE: Black Saturday Escapes Catastrophe: The Submarine and the Downed U-2 GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Black Saturday(October 27, 1962) saw two accidents nearly trigger nuclear war. In the Sargasso Sea, the Soviet submarine B-59, tracked by the USS Cony, prepared to fire a nuclear torpedo until Captain Vasily Arkhipov overruled the order. Separately in Cuba, Soviet forces, believing invasion was imminent following orders from Fidel Castro, shot down an American U-2plane, killing Major Anderson. 1959

HEADLINE: Mikoyan Negotiates the "Crisis of November" with Fidel Castro GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: After the crisis resolution, Nikita Khrushchev rationalized his actions but faced internal criticism. Fidel Castro, who had advocated nuclear attack, felt insulted by the lack of consultation. Khrushchev sent Mikoyan to negotiate with Castro, who refused to allow inspections and sought to retain tactical nuclear weapons, leading to the "crisis of November." The eventual, humiliating Soviet withdrawal verified by US ships was cited in Khrushchev's later removal. 1899 HAVANA

In this episode of Gangland Wire, retired Kansas City Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins sits down with journalist and author Rich Gazarik to explore a little-known corner of mob history—one that ties the Pittsburgh Mafia to Fidel Castro, stolen guns, and even the Kennedy assassination. Rich's latest book, Gun Smuggling, Castro, and the Pittsburgh Mafia, shines a spotlight on Sam Mannarino, a Pittsburgh mob captain under boss John LaRocca, who hatched a wild plan in the early 1960s: supply Fidel Castro with hundreds of stolen weapons in hopes of carving out a piece of Cuba's casino action. The scheme included an audacious plot to rip off 300 rifles from a National Guard armory in Ohio—an operation that quickly unraveled into chaos. From there, the conversation broadens into the Pittsburgh mob's stranglehold on its city, including political corruption, bribery, and intimidation that reached into the mayor's office and the police department. Rich recounts how Mannarino and his crew maintained a façade of respectability while ruling through violence and fear, leaving a lasting mark on Pittsburgh's civic life. Drawing on decades of investigative journalism and declassified JFK assassination files, Rich also connects the dots between the Pittsburgh Mafia and broader mob influence in the 1960s. We discuss how figures like Carlos Marcello and Santo Trafficante emerged in congressional investigations, feeding speculation that the Mafia's reach extended into Dallas on November 22, 1963. This episode uncovers a forgotten piece of organized crime history where local corruption, mob ambition, and Cold War politics collided.

I'm here in the studio of Gangland Wire, and I have a story that is kind of topical right now because there's a movie being made about November 1963. And this isn't exactly about Kennedy assassination, but it's all around the Kennedy assassination. And it's about mob guys having connections down in Cuba and with Castro and out of Pittsburgh of all places. Now, go figure that. You know, I always think of Tropicante down in Tampa, and you've got Marcello down in New Orleans. You've got Ardo up in Chicago, and you always think of them, Giancana, having those connections. Well, there was a Pittsburgh guy named Sam Mannarino who had extensive connections down in Cuba. So welcome, Rich Gazarek. [0:51] Thank you, Gary. Appreciate it. Good to have you. Rich, tell the guys the name of your book. I don't have to. I'd have to lean over here and read it. It's a little bit long. So tell the guys the name of your book and a little bit about what it's about. It's called Gun Smuggling, Castro, and the Pittsburgh Mafia. And it was a faction of the Pittsburgh Mafia. [1:11] John LaRocco was the godfather of the Pittsburgh Mom. Sam Mannarino was one of his captains. And Mannarino and his brother Kelly had a casino in Cuba, San Suu Kyi, outside of Havana. And they didn't do very well with it and they eventually sold it. And at the time, Fulgincia Batista was getting a little bit greedy and he was on the...

udyth Vary was once a promising science student who dreamed of finding a cure for cancer; this exposé is her account of how she strayed from a path of mainstream scholarship at the University of Florida to a life of espionage in New Orleans with Lee Harvey Oswald. In her narrative she offers extensive documentation on how she came to be a cancer expert at such a young age, the personalities who urged her to relocate to New Orleans, and what led to her involvement in the development of a biological weapon that Oswald was to smuggle into Cuba to eliminate Fidel Castro. Details on what she knew of Kennedy's impending assassination, her conversations with Oswald as late as two days before the killing, and her belief that Oswald was a deep-cover intelligence agent who was framed for an assassination he was actually trying to prevent, are also revealed. https://amzn.to/46jnUh8Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

When Fidel Castro overthrew Cuba's dictator in 1959, the Communist leader and provocateur quickly became a threat to the U.S. government. The CIA has been proven responsible for at least eight plots against Castro's life. Despite the creativity of their attempts—including everything from an exploding cigar to a mafia hit—they were ultimately unsuccessful. But if there were reportedly over 600 attempts on Castro's life during his reign, just how many were the CIA actually responsible for?

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the Justice Department is launching a federal grand jury investigation into former Obama administration officials accused of their role in 2016's Russia-gate. This legal move could lead to criminal charges against key Cabinet members from the Obama era, including James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey. President Barack Obama needs to be questioned for his role. Barack Obama is the central figure in uncovering the full scope of the Russia Collusion scandal and the attempt to undermine the Trump campaign and presidency. The Supreme Court does not grant him blanket immunity. It offers a presumption of immunity, which could be challenged based on what the investigation reveals. Regardless, there is no immunity from criminal investigation or from being compelled to testify under oath—period. Israel is being attacked and accused of a deep Zionistic rhetoric that Israel has special interests regarding the spread of Zionism. Isreal is defending itself and protecting the freedoms of Jews, Christians and non-radical Muslims who oppose the Radical-Islamic regimes. Sen Elizabeth Warren met with Zohran Mamdani to endorse his socialist and Marxist agenda. Warren asserts that affordability is the primary crisis facing our nation, but this is merely a facade to disguise their true intentions. She also claims that this aligns with the Democratic message and their core values. Fidel Castro spoke of free healthcare, free food, and housing, yet he stifled his people's progress, leading to the current disastrous state of Cuba. The handouts they are advocating will ultimately cause more harm than good, jeopardizing everything you have worked tirelessly for, merely to provide for illegal immigrants, while also undermining essential institutions like our Police Departments, ICE, and more. Democrats have been more aggressive in gerrymandering than Republicans. There's not a single Republican representative from Massachusetts. There's only one Republican representative from Maryland. In 2020, the Census made "mathematic" errors resulting in upwards of 5 congressional seats assigned to blue states, which should have been held by red states. President Trump as an iconic, history-making president who thinks outside the box, achieving success as both a businessman and leader. Trump leverages America's economic power to rebuild industries, repatriate businesses, access closed economies, and compete with Communist China, while applying it to foreign policy—mirroring Ronald Reagan's approach that led to the Soviet Union's collapse. Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson warns of a "point of no return" for city finances amid a $1.1 billion 2026 deficit, pushing for tax hikes like a millionaire tax, corporate head tax and wants progressive revenue options. In On Power, it explains that the progressive movement aims to fundamentally transform America and Western democracies by centralizing government power, diminishing individual freedoms, and reengineering society through soft negative power. Johnson's progressive tax hikes reflects a drive to expand centralized governmental authority, which will erode economic freedoms and individual autonomy in pursuit of societal reengineering. This is what NYC can look forward to if Zohran Mamdani gets elected. Mandami repeatedly trashes America, failed to assimilate, and acting as a revolutionary against the country since his teenage arrival. His Marxist, Islamist, and Jew-hating ideologies echo terrorist lines. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Sen Elizabeth Warren met with Zohran Mamdani to endorse his socialist and Marxist agenda.

The handouts they are advocating will ultimately cause more harm than good, jeopardizing everything you have worked tirelessly for, merely to provide for illegal immigrants, while also undermining essential institutions like our Police Departments, ICE, and more. In addition, the extreme left and radical Islamists are attempting to sway our youth, Conservatives, and Republicans into harboring negative feelings towards Israel. This situation is perilous because it highlights exactly why these so-called influencers are pushing this agenda—they are thirsty for clicks. Furthermore, Jasmine Crocket, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Al Green, and the 5th Column isolationists are eager to back Hamas and the antisemitism that afflicts our country and the world. Crocket labels President Trump a Temu Nazi, which is both disrespectful and absurd; she is the one who truly supports the real Nazis - Radical Islamists, terrorists, and Marxists disguised as Democrats. Lastly,  Democrats are leaving Texas to affect the redistricting effort, putting it at a stall. Sen John Cornyn reached out to the FBI seeking assistance in locating, apprehending, and investigating numerous Texas Democratic lawmakers who have left the lone Star State to impede a Republican-led redistricting initiative.  Learn more about your ad choices.
