Donald Trump and his trade war are symptoms, not causes, of a deeper shift in the global economic order. The world has fractured into rival blocs, with the US and China emerging as the poles of competing systems, vying for resources, technological dominance and geopolitical influence. Now, with Trump back in office, long-held assumptions about American leadership are once again in question. What does his return mean for the trajectory of this fracturing, and how has the balance of risks evolved?In this special edition of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing and Chief Asia Economist Mark Williams explore the fracturing of the global economy. Ahead of the publication of fresh analysis about how fracturing has developed since Trump's return, they talk to David Wilder about how this process began long before the president was elected in 2016,  how it's accelerating under his second term and where it might lead. Topics covered in this 30-minute episode include:The inevitability of US–China economic rivalry – and the scope for détenteHow fracturing is fuelling a global tech arms raceWhether Trump's unilateralism could further strain or even break Western alliances.Events and analysis referenced in this episode:Fracturing under Trump – Register now:Singapore, 3rd SeptemberHong Kong, 4th SeptemberLondon, 17th SeptemberNew York, 9th OctoberRead: The fracturing of the global economyRead: The US, China and the Fractured Age

Jake Tapper returns to dissect his book Original Sin and the failures of mainstream media to report on Joe Biden's decline.  He traces how social pressures, cultural taboos, and partisan incentive structures are ongoing threats to the type of journalism he practices and associates with the best forms of truth-telling. Tapper says CNN still strives to flesh out the full story, but acknowledges the shrinking market for non-ideological reporting. Plus, a glimpse into the spectacle of immigration enforcement, where shocking imagery is a Presidential tactic and a public turnoff.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this powerful and urgent episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim challenges listeners to confront a critical question: Which part of humanity will you fracture into? As the world undergoes rapid change and spiritual divergence, Jim explores the growing split between those who are awakening into higher consciousness and those entrenched in fear, ego, and distraction. Drawing on wisdom from Don Xavier, Nostradamus, and spiritual science, Jim helps frame today's chaos as not merely political or economic—but vibrational and evolutionary.  Jim discusses how humanity is fracturing into two paths: one aligned with love, light, and soul awareness, and another trapped in fear, density, and the illusions of the 3D world. He speaks directly to the lightworkers, healers, and seekers who sense that something deeper is happening beneath the surface of global events. With clarity and compassion, he reminds us that the path to immunity from chaos begins by raising our frequency—starting from within.  This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who feels out of place in today's noisy world. If you've ever felt that you were born for more, that your role is to bring light, or that the world doesn't quite feel like home—this episode will help you see why.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Humanity is Fracturing into Two Paths (02:15) Jim outlines how society is splitting into two distinct energetic realities: one of love and evolution, the other of fear and ego.  Why “Raising Your Frequency” Is the Ultimate Solution (07:35) Learn how raising your inner frequency can protect you from the chaos and lower energies dominating today's world.  The Role of Sentinels and Sleepwalkers in Human Evolution (13:05) Jim introduces the concepts of sentinels (the awakened) and sleepwalkers (the lost), and invites listeners to identify their path.  What Nostradamus Got Right About Our Current World (22:40) Explore prophetic insights from Nostradamus, including the “inversion ritual” and the rise of metal tongues—an eerie foreshadowing of modern digital life.  How to Raise Your Frequency Through Thought and Emotion (31:20) Jim breaks down the path from thought to feeling to frequency and why managing emotions is essential to spiritual growth.  The Children of the Divide and the Second Dawn (41:00)  Discover how younger generations—Indigo and crystalline children—are ushering in the next era of higher consciousness and soulful living.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  We are not waiting for the shift—it's already happening. Humanity is evolving, and with it, the vibrational split between fear and love is widening. You are here for a reason. You are not lost, and you are not alone. You are a sentinel, a light bearer, a guardian of higher truth. Your path is not to fight the darkness, but to stand so fully in your light that darkness cannot persist. Remember: the greatest rebellion is joy. The strongest shield is peace. And the most radical act is to raise your frequency and lead with love.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Let me tell you something that absolutely floored me. Iheard a woman say that when she sees an American flag, she gets uncomfortable.That it feels evil. Evil—while she's living in the country that gives her the right to say that out loud, in public, with zero fear of imprisonment or retribution. That's not oppression. That's indifference masked as activism. And I just don't understand it.

War Room How The Israel/Iran War Is On The Brink Of Fracturing The MAGA Coalition — Learn Who Is Picking Sides & Why

Way, way back during the SOPA/PIPA fight, a very important part of the resistance against the bills was coming from infrastructure operators who explained how they were technically incoherent and dangerous. One prominent group was the Internet Infrastructure Coalition, co-founded by Christian Dawson. Today, with legislative amnesia setting in and new requirements for infrastructure-level site blocking rearing their heads, the Coalition has released a new report: DNS At Risk. This week, he joins us on the podcast to talk about the report and the ongoing dangers of attacks on the internet infrastructure.

In Episode 11 of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost dives into a chaotic international landscape marked by power vacuums, realignment, and narrative collapse. He begins with the stunning visual of the American flag raised once again over Damascus, signaling potential diplomatic restoration between the U.S. and Syria. Ghost unpacks the implications of this move in the context of Arab League reintegration and shifting allegiances in the Middle East. The episode then turns to Israel, where Netanyahu's fragile coalition teeters amid pressure from both domestic unrest and international negotiations with Hamas. Ghost explores the realpolitik behind the hostage talks, the future of Israeli leadership, and whether the U.S. is quietly stepping back from unconditional support. In Asia, the conversation moves to Putin's multi-vector diplomacy, including outreach to North Korea and Central Asia, and how Trump's economic and military posture may be shaping new alliances. Tensions around Taiwan, U.S. base repositioning, and questions about Japan's sovereignty also make the docket. With his signature clarity and historical insight, Ghost weaves together Syria, Israel, Russia, and China to illustrate the broader dismantling of the unipolar world, and the unpredictable road to whatever comes next. A must-listen for those tracking the silent reordering of global power.

Prof Danny Quah, Dean of LKY School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, returns to Kopi Time to share his insights on the dangers and opportunities stemming from the changing world order. We go over two of his recent pieces; first, an open letter to the US president (penned before the US elections last November, and second, a research paper on the correlation between global trade and geopolitics. Prof Quah dissects the great power rivalry through (i) the perception of win-win versus zero sum and (ii) a tendency to attribute domestic welfare shortfalls (blue collar jobs, health, education, safety) to external factors (trade, immigration, defence spending). He then points out that trade liberalisation and the politics of global engagement have gone hand in hand on the way up (say, from the 1960s to 2010) and down (the past decade and a half). We then discuss a key point—the US shying away from globalisation or green transition does not doom those dynamics. There is a huge world of trade and GDP outside the US. The world is not being swayed; rules and agreements among the rest are proceeding, with the window left open for the US to return one day. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's been notable back-and-forth action between bears and bulls in the SPX, especially surrounding the 5,950 level. Kevin Green says buyers stepping in around 5,900 in a low liquidity environment shows signals of strength but there needs to be more conviction to hold levels. He points to the ratio in tech and staples compared to the SPX to explain why "exhaustion" may be slipping into trading action.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

The Superhero Show Show #581Spider-Man the Animated Series: Mysterio's ReturnThe Superhero Show Show: Unmasking Mysterio's Return in “The Haunting of Mary Jane Watson”!This week on The Superhero Show Show, your hosts swing back into the eerie heart of Spider-Man: The Animated Series with season 4, episode 9 — “The Haunting of Mary Jane Watson.” And no, you're not imagining things — Mysterio's Return is real, it's theatrical, and it's just as mind-bending as you'd hope. The team dives deep into this episode's ghostly twists, romantic tension, and one of the show's most atmospheric villains staging a comeback like only he can.Illusions of the Past: Mysterio's Return and the Fracturing of RealityThe conversation kicks off with the hosts marveling at the bold reappearance of Quentin Beck, a.k.a. Mysterio, who was presumed dead but now haunts Mary Jane's dreams—and possibly her reality. They discuss how Mysterio's Return flips the show into near horror territory, with trippy hallucinations, supernatural scares, and MJ slowly unraveling under the weight of visions she can't explain.The podcasters dissect how the show smartly uses Mysterio's talent for illusion to blur the line between psychological thriller and superhero adventure. Is MJ really seeing ghosts? Or is this just another one of Mysterio's elaborate productions? Either way, the hosts agree: it's an episode that plays like The Sixth Sense meets Spider-Man, long before that was cool.Spider-Man, the Protector... and the HauntedAs MJ starts doubting her own sanity, Peter takes center stage as the concerned boyfriend and relentless investigator. The podcasters discuss how the episode deepens Peter and MJ's relationship, showing his emotional support and vulnerability as he tries to shield her from a past neither of them fully understands. The haunting leads to revelations about MJ's missing memories and mysterious disappearance earlier in the series—a thread the hosts are thrilled to see finally tugged.They also spotlight how the episode makes excellent use of gothic set pieces, ghostly lighting, and Danny Elfman-esque music cues to sell the haunted-house vibe. And when Mysterio's Return is finally confirmed, it's a grand, dramatic moment that sends chills — not because he's physically imposing, but because of how well he manipulates fear.Curtain Call: The Phantom of the Soundstage Lives OnIn the closing segment, the hosts give big praise to The Haunting of Mary Jane Watson for raising emotional stakes while honoring its comic book roots. They applaud the decision to bring Mysterio back in a way that feels fresh, emotionally loaded, and uniquely suited to animation's surreal potential. The haunting isn't just about ghosts — it's about trauma, memory, and unresolved loss. And with Mysterio's Return, the show delivers one of its most hauntingly human villains.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?

This week on the Dismal Science, Raphael and Mark dissect the latest Australian GDP figures, revealing the end of the per capita recession, though productivity remains a concern with a third consecutive quarter of falling GDP per hour worked. Turning their attention to the global stage, they examine the evolving economic landscape in the United States, with the Atlanta Fed now forecasting contraction and the impact of newly implemented tariffs. They explore how these factors, coupled with significant geopolitical uncertainties including the suspension of US military aid to Ukraine, are contributing to market jitters and a shifting focus away from previous narratives like AI. Finally, they consider the potential economic ramifications of the US Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) initiative.

On this week's episode, I'm joined by the New York Times's James Poniewozik to discuss SNL's (rather lengthy) 50th anniversary celebration. (Here's a gift link to James's piece on his favorite episode of SNL.) We discuss the show, how it has changed, and how changes in how people watch the show change its meaning (and our relationship to it). I also asked James about his book, Audience of One: Donald Trump, Television, and the Fracturing of America and how to best cover Trump without succumbing to the siren song of scolding; that clip starts a little before minute 30 if you want to skip all the SNL chatter. (But why would you?) If you enjoyed the episode, I hope you share it with a friend!

The final Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics of the year has Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing making sense of that December Federal Reserve meeting and explaining what the latest PCE data say about the inflation outlook and where rates are heading in 2025. He also addresses why hopes for a sweeping ‘Mar-a-Lago accord' (or 'Plaza Accord 2.0') that would tackle US-China currency imbalances are likely to be disappointed. Plus, a dramatic plunge in the value of Brazil's real shows how far investors have fallen out with Lula's spendthrift administration. In an exclusive clip from our client briefing on Brazil's crisis, William Jackson, Jason Tuvey and Jonas Goltermann discuss the real's fair value, the effectiveness of FX intervention and what the government needs to do to get investors back onside.

They contrast it with historical welfare state policies, reflecting on Argentina's past prosperity in the late 1800s and exploring the implications of free-market approaches on long-term economic and cultural revitalization.Frontier Technologies as Drivers of Human Flourishing: Ben emphasizes Qubit Capital's focus on frontier technologies like AI, space exploration, and energy abundance, underscoring their role in advancing human flourishing. The conversation connects these innovations to philosophical and theological perspectives, arguing that technology can serve as a bridge to a higher purpose in human development.Energy Abundance as the Foundation for Progress: Energy consumption is highlighted as a critical driver of human and societal progress. The episode explores how nuclear power, space-based solar energy, and other breakthroughs in energy generation and consumption are unlocking new possibilities for innovation, economic growth, and global resilience.The Future of Space Exploration and the Space Economy: A major theme is the transformative potential of space exploration and the burgeoning space economy. From asteroid mining to on-orbit data centers, the episode examines how reducing launch costs and advancing technology can catalyze manufacturing and economic systems in space, leading to unprecedented opportunities.The Role of Failure in Innovation: Drawing parallels between technological and societal experimentation, Ben argues that failure is a necessary precursor to success. Whether it's in space exploration, national policies, or personal growth, the willingness to take risks and learn from setbacks is presented as a cornerstone of progress.The Fracturing of Social Media and Communities: The conversation touches on the evolving nature of social media, suggesting that global, interconnected platforms are giving way to more tribalistic, niche communities. This shift echoes historical patterns of societal organization and reflects humanity's inherent need for smaller, more cohesive groups to navigate cultural and generational changes.The Intersection of Technology, Faith, and Society: Ben shares a unique perspective on integrating faith with technology and investment. He posits that both fields share a common goal of enabling human flourishing, arguing that spiritual and technological frameworks can work together to solve pressing global challenges while fostering a sense of purpose and connection.

We are excited to have October's featured guest Eliza Griswold talking about her latest book, "Circle of Hope: A Reckoning of Love, Power and Justice in an American Church" with Shane Claiborne and Katie Jo Brotherton. About the Book: "Circle of Hope" is an intimate portrait of a church, its radical mission, and its riveting crisis. “The revolution I wanted to be part of was in the church.” Americans have been leaving their churches. Some drift away. Some stay home. And some have been searching for—and finding—more authentic ways to find and follow Jesus. This is the story of one such “radical outpost of Jesus followers” dedicated to service, the Sermon on the Mount, and working toward justice for all in this life, not just salvation for some in the next. Part of a little-known yet influential movement at the edge of American evangelicalism, Philadelphia's Circle of Hope grew for forty years, planted four congregations, and then found itself in crisis. The story that follows is an American allegory full of questions with urgent relevance for so many of us, not just the faithful: How do we commit to one another and our better selves in a fracturing world? Where does power live? Can it be shared? How do we make “the least of these” welcome? Building on years of deep reporting, the Pulitzer Prize winner Eliza Griswold has crafted an intimate, immersive, tenderhearted portrait of a community, as well as a riveting chronicle of its transformation, bearing witness to the ways a deeply committed membership and their team of devoted pastors are striving toward change that might help their church survive. Through generational rifts, an increasingly politicized religious landscape, a pandemic that prevented gathering to worship, and a rise in foundation-shaking activism, Circle of Hope tells a propulsive, layered story of what we do to stay true to our beliefs. It is a soaring, searing examination of what it means for us to love, to grow, and to disagree. About the Author: Eliza Griswold is the author of six books of poetry and nonfiction, all published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. Her book Amity and Prosperity: One Family and the Fracturing of America was awarded the 2019 Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction. She writes for The New Yorker, is the Ferris Professor and Director of the Program in Journalism at Princeton University, and lives in New Jersey with her husband and son.

Eliza Griswold's new book Circle of Hope: A Reckoning with Love, Power, and Justice in an American Church is about a church in Philadelphia that was started by a couple who became dramatic converts to Christianity in the 1970's. They became Jesus people. And unlike many others in that movement, they stayed pretty radical. Griswold's book tells the story of this couple's attempt to hand the church off to the next generation. It doesn't go well.  I thought the book was an example of something I've lived, experienced and observed: placing far too much hope in what a local church can do and provide. Griswold is a contributing writing for The New Yorker and directs the Program in Journalism at Princeton University. Her 2018 book Amity and Prosperity: One Family and the Fracturing of America, won the Pulitzer Prize.

For investors, it can be pretty easy to overreact to day-to-day market moving events. Confluence Chief Market Strategist Patrick Fearon-Hernandez joins Phil Adler to discuss how a long-term roadmap can help investors resist emotional decisions, and why recognizing global megatrends is a key part of the process at Confluence.

Did you know there are 70 definitions of rural? This is the story of rural America. And although geography does matter for the purposes of this discussion, rural is a loaded term with a complex meaning that cannot readily be determined by looking at the map. In popular culture, rural may have a negative perception. Regardless of how the media, movies and urban folk perceive rural America, ruralness provides the basis for a strong identity - a distinct identity in a diverse nation. And since we are so close to the Election, I'll throw this at you: the rural identity is closely associated with politics. Ask yourself this: why do rural Americans predominantly vote Republican? And why Democrats keep on losing the rural vote? In this interview, my guest takes us back to 1980. As he explains it, 1980 is a pivotal year in America's rural-urban divide. He also gives us his prediction for the 2024 Election. *****

Is a strong US dollar a good or bad thing for investors? Confluence Chief Market Strategist Patrick Fearon-Hernandez discusses prospects for the dollar in a fracturing world and explains the process the Confluence macro team uses to measure the strength of the US dollar.

On this edition of Parallax Views, a double feature edition of the show featuring returning guests Eli Clifton and James W. Carden. First up, Eli Clifton joins the show to discuss his article in The Guardian entitled "Netanyahu is presiding over a sharp decline in the US's pro-Israel consensus". We discuss Netanyahu's speech to Congress and the fact that almost of the Democrats in Congress did not attend. We'll also discuss Republican figures like Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Thomas Massie introducing conservatives to a more critical/skeptical view of the reigning U.S. consensus on the U.S.-Israel special relationship. It leads us to the question: Will this U.S. consensus change in the future due to fracture in the Democratic Party on Israel over its conduct in Gaza as well as potentially emergent fractures in the GOP over unconditional U.S. support for Israel? In the second segment of the show, James W. Carden, a former advisor to the State Department and a regular contributor to The American Conservative, joins the show to discuss article he recently co-wrote with former Trump appointee Col. Douglas MacGregor entitled "Neoconservatism by Another Name". We'll discuss the movement known as "National Conservatism" that has been backed by prominent figures like Peter Thiel and JD as well as its origins in the form of an Israeli philosopher, Yoram Hazony, who was a youthful admirer of the late far-right wing American-born Israeli political extremist Rabbi Meier Kahane. Carden discusses this from a particular perspective. He himself is a conservative. But he's put off by both the hawkish tendencies of National Conservatism on China and Iran and very akin to that of the Bush-era neoconservatives of the Wolfowitz Doctrine and the Project for a New American Century, and what he judges to be their desires for a "theocratic revolution". He also argues that NatCons would do well to distinguish between patriotism and national, and offers an analysis of why ethno-nationalism, on even simply pragmatic grounds, is a fool-hardy endeavor for conservatives to pursue and would be disastrous in America. Moreover, James will go over the interest NatCons have in Israel and Hungary as a model for their vision of America, and why this will not work for the U.S. We'll also go over what could be described as "Caesarist" tendencies within the National Conservatism and adjacent integralist movements, as pointed out in 2021 by Rod Dreher, and his views on the NatCons interest pushing for, again, what he judges to be a plan for Christian theocracy in the United States.

Former President Donald J. Trump's appearance at a U.F.C. match this week seems to be part of a larger strategy to attract men — especially young men — to his cause. But what can President Biden do to change the narrative that “the left doesn't like men”?This week, Michelle Cottle and Carlos Lozada are joined by their (male) Opinion colleagues Jamelle Bouie and David French to debate why men are becoming more conservative and whether Trump's masculine appeal is about policy or his “manliness.”(A full transcript of this episode will be available within 24 hours of publication on the Times website.)“Audience of One: Trump, Television and the Fracturing of America” by James Poniewozik“American Sniper” directed by Clint EastwoodMay 2024 Times/Siena poll of the presidential battlegroundsThoughts about the show?
