On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, agitprop—a combination of agitation and propaganda—originates from Lenin's 1902 writings and implemented after the 1917 Russian Revolution to manipulate minds, control thoughts, and incite anger for societal control. The modern American Marxist Democrat Party adapts these tactics. The Democrats speak publicly in press conferences and talk shows to maximize impact, resulting in widespread violence on ICE agents and law enforcement, though they deflect blame onto guns rather than taking credit for their influence. Also, the media hates PM Benjamin Netanyahu just as they hate President Trump, while they praise quisling leaders who surrender to Islamists and Marxists, such as those in the UK, France, Australia, Spain, and Ireland. The media ignores criticisms of dictators like Egypt's president, Qatar's emir, Saudi Arabia's crown prince and Jordan's king, whose fake kingdom was created by Britain and has a history of violence against Palestinians. Without Netanyahu Israel might not exist. Later, in breaking news former FBI director James Comey has been indicted on two counts, making false statements and obstruction of justice. This is unresolved justice not retribution. Sen Ted Cruz calls in and lays out the case against Comey. Cruz details contradictory statements: Deputy Director Andrew McCabe claimed Comey knew and approved the leak to The Wall Street Journal, while Comey denied any involvement in sworn testimony in 2017 and 2020. One must be lying, constituting a felony – the DOJ evidence supports McCabe's account. Afterward, Josh Hammer calls in to discuss the Comey indictments and his last conversation with Charlie Kirk, which disproves Tucker Carlson's claim that Kirk was going to renounce his friendship with Israel. Finally, Peter Navarro calls in to discuss his new book, I Went to Prison So You Won't Have To: A Love and Lawfare Story in Trump Land. Learn more about your ad choices.

On 28 September 2009, around 50,000 people took part in a rally to protest reported plans by military leader Moussa Dadis Camara to stand in the presidential election.

Alors voici l'essentiel du discours d'Emmanuel Macron à l'ONU sur la Palestine.So here is the essential part of Emmanuel Macron's speech at the UN about Palestine.Faut savoir qu'à l'ONU le président français a fait une annonce assez forte, hein.You should know that at the UN the French president made a rather strong announcement.Ça marque vraiment un tournant pour la France au Proche-Orient, surtout vu la situation hyper tendue là-bas.This really marks a turning point for France in the Middle East, especially given the extremely tense situation there.Premièrement, et ça c'est majeur, la France reconnaît officiellement l'État de Palestine.Firstly, and this is a major point, France officially recognizes the State of Palestine.Ouais, Macron l'a dit clairement, le temps de la paix est venu.Yes, Macron said it clearly, the time for peace has come.C'est symbolique, bien sûr, mais c'est important, ça aligne la France avec pas mal d'autres pays en fait.It is symbolic, of course, but it is important, it aligns France with quite a few other countries actually.Deuxième point clé, cet appel urgent pour un arrêt immédiat de la guerre à Gaza.The second key point is this urgent call for an immediate halt to the war in Gaza.Pour Macron, rien ne justifie de poursuivre la guerre.For Macron, nothing justifies continuing the war.L'idée, c'est d'avoir un cessez-le-feu pour après essayer de démanteler le Hamas politiquement.The idea is to have a ceasefire to then try to dismantle Hamas politically.Et enfin, pour lier tout ça, et bien cette reconnaissance, elle fait partie d'un plan de paix français plus large.And finally, to link all of this, this recognition is part of a broader French peace plan.Ça comprendrait une ambassade française en Palestine, mais attention, il y a des conditions.This would include a French embassy in Palestine, but be careful, there are conditions.Il faut la libération des otages et un cessez-le-feu qui tienne la route.The release of hostages and a sustainable ceasefire are needed.Avec une aide internationale pour reconstruire derrière.With international aid to rebuild afterwards.Donc voilà, en gros, la France mise sur la reconnaissance de la Palestine et ce plan de paix pour essayer de sortir du cycle de violence au Proche-Orient.So there you have it, basically, France is betting on the recognition of Palestine and this peace plan to try and get out of the cycle of violence in the Middle East.

What if connection really is the antidote to a world that feels divided — for us and for the next generation?In today's episode, I'm inviting you into a real and unfiltered conversation (recorded right from my car) about what it means to choose connection in a world that seems designed to pull us apart. From family gatherings over the Jewish New Year, to my own shifts with technology, to a story from my travels in France — this episode is all about the simple, everyday ways we can reclaim presence and pass it forward to the kids and teens in our lives.Here's what I share with you:Why reflection doesn't have to be judgmental, and how I set intentions for what I want more of.A powerful reel from Jonathan Haidt that reframed the way I see kids and devices.My personal journey of breaking free from letting my phone hijack my mornings.The choice we all have between looking for darkness or looking for light.How attempting to speak French opened unexpected doors of connection while traveling.Why modeling connection matters so much for the next generation — and how we can do it daily.And of course, I'll talk about The Connection Book, my newest release, which is designed to spark real, soul-filling conversations between kids and the grown-ups who love them. Because connection isn't just for us — it's the gift we hand down to the next gen.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. On Sunday, the tally of the 193 UN members who recognize a State of Palestine grew to at least 145 as the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and Portugal formally joined their ranks. Several other countries, including France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Malta, followed suit during a summit on the future of the two-state solution chaired by France and Saudi Arabia on Monday at United Nations headquarters in New York. We discuss why these states believe that this recognition is an anti-Hamas gesture and may kick off negotiations to end the war in Gaza. Israel, for its part, thinks that the recognition is a prize for terror: On this, Hamas appeared to agree, thanking the UK and Canada and calling their action a “victory.” This week, Berman delves into the knotty issue of Palestinian statehood and potentially unforeseen ripple effects. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

In this episode, I go deep with the wonderful Mariola Rosario on the topic of Living Emergence. The third episode in this new series, this conversation is rich, vast, and deeply moving. Some of the references from the episode: Film: Fire of Love (2022) Essay: Under the Sign of Saturn by Susan Sontag Book: Underland by Robert Macfarlane Poem: Caminante no hay camino by Antonio Machado Mariola Rosario (she/her) is an artist, astrologer, writer, teacher, and independent researcher from Puerto Rico, currently based in Paris, France. She explores visual and material culture in relation to terrestrial and celestial practices and mythologies, tracing how images, objects, and language shape cultural memory, origins, and political imaginaries. She is committed to co-creating anti-extractive spaces of learning and mutual aid that honor both the magical and the material conditions of our time. Mariola also has a lot of fun writing on Substack, where she shares reflections on myth, art, monstrosity, astrology, politics, and the magic of language. You can subscribe and read her latest here: https://substack.com/@lasfloresdelmal Her books are also open for Astrology consultations online and in person, in Paris. https://mariolarosario.com/ Her upcoming course, Chthonic AF: Unearthing Myths of Power, Sacred Rage, and the Monstrous Feminine, runs through Scorpio season. In this course we turn toward the underlands where gaze and voice cut across fear, desire, and resistance. Guided by Medusa and the Sirens, figures of fear and allure, they surface again and again in feminist, queer, and decolonial retellings. We will explore why they are returned to, reclaimed, and reimagined, and why we cannot seem to let them go. We ask what is it that they may be demanding from us now, here in 2025? We will dive into the chthonic and its relationship to monstrosity, ritual, art, astrology, and collective memory. We begin on October 22nd and spend four weeks in the underworld together, through the heart of Scorpio season. All genders, experiences, and learning styles are welcomed.

Ghislaine Maxwell is the youngest child of the late media mogul Robert Maxwell, and she has several sisters who have kept lower profiles compared to her own notoriety. Among them are Isabel and Christine Maxwell, who were once prominent figures in the tech and business world. Christine co-founded the search engine Magellan in the 1990s and has worked in education and technology, while Isabel has also been active in digital enterprises and philanthropy. Both women have largely tried to distance themselves from the criminal scandals surrounding their sister Ghislaine, although their family name inevitably drags them into the broader narrative of the Maxwell legacy.Another Maxwell sister, Anne Maxwell, pursued a career in academia and publishing, living a more private life compared to Christine and Isabel. The sisters grew up in the shadow of their father's controversial empire and the scandal following his death in 1991, when Robert Maxwell drowned under mysterious circumstances after being accused of looting company pension funds. The Maxwell daughters, especially Christine and Isabel, attempted to rebuild the family's reputation through their professional careers, but Ghislaine's ties to Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent conviction further tainted the already troubled Maxwell name.Al Seckel, a former partner of Isabel Maxwell, was a writer and self-styled expert in optical illusions who moved in elite social circles, often connected to science and skepticism communities. Seckel's life ended under murky circumstances—he reportedly died in 2015 after a fall near his home in France, though questions have lingered about the exact details of his death due to his history of financial scandals and fraud allegations. His connection to the Maxwell family through Isabel added another layer of intrigue to the family's saga, intertwining themes of scandal, deception, and mystery that seem to recur throughout the Maxwell story.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Like any card-carrying Italian worth his focaccia, singer Matteo Bocelli says he could eat pasta for breakfast, lunch and dinner! From his home in Tuscany, Matteo tells host Rachel Belle about the super-simple, but deeply delicious, sauce recipe he’s been trying to perfect, inspired by a three-Michelin-star restaurant, and why you should always choose Italian pasta made from ancient grains. You’ve probably heard the tales: A gluten-sensitive American travels to Italy or France, and can magically stuff their face with croissants, baguettes and pasta without any negative consequences. Rachel asks Dr. Alessio Fasano, professor of nutrition and a Celiac and gluten expert and researcher at Harvard Medical School, if, and how, this is possible. Matteo just released his second album, Falling in Love, and if his name sounds familiar, it’s because his dad is Andrea Bocelli, the famous Italian singer.

In the 1950s, secretary Bette Graham from Texas was struggling to cope with her new electric typewriter.“My fingers would hang heavy on the sensitive keyboard and the first thing I'd know, I'd have a mistake with a deposit of carbon which I simply couldn't erase,” she said.A budding artist, she wondered if there was a way she could paint over her typos.At home, in her kitchen, the single mum cooked up the first correcting fluid. It was a hit with other secretaries and, by 1973, Bette had turned her creation into a multi-million dollar business.Bette died in 1980 so Vicky Farncombe tells her story using archive from University of North Texas Special Collections.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

The former president of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, is sentenced to five years in prison for criminal conspiracy. Judge Nathalie Gavarino said Sarkozy had allowed close aides to contact Libyan officials with a view to obtaining financial support for his election campaign. Mr Sarkozy insisted he was innocent and said he would appeal the ruling.Also in the programme: three days after several world powers recognise Palestinian statehood, Palestine's President Mahmoud Abbas addresses the United Nations General Assembly via video link, having been barred from entry to the US by President Trump; plus how Zimbabwe aims to become the world's top supplier of blueberries.(IMAGE: Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, leave the courthouse in Paris, France, 25 September 2025 / CREDIT: YOAN VALAT/EPA/Shutterstock)

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Following US President Donald Trump’s must-anticipated meeting at the United Nations with leaders of eight Arab countries, Magid discusses aspects of Trump’s 21-point plan, based on the proposal worked on by former UK prime minister Tony Blair. Magid points out that Trump assured the participating leaders that the US will not allow Israel to annex parts of the West Bank, after being quiet on their position. Magid also discusses the French plan to stabilize the region, with five Arab countries named as likely sponsors and with a two-page proposal that specifically discusses disarming Hamas as part of the plan.

[Pour retrouver nos épisodes en avant-première, abonnez-vous sur : https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-kzLXJFUU] Pendant toute son enfance, Édouard Louis a tenté d'apprendre à être « un vrai dur ». Là où il a grandi, dans une famille pauvre de cinq enfants d'un village du Nord de la France, c'était la seule manière autorisée d'être un homme. Comment survivre au dressage à la masculinité hétéro et virile quand on est un enfant gay ? Comment comprendre les masculinités des classes populaires ? Qu'est-ce qui fait que cet apprentissage de la masculinité peut à la fois donner du pouvoir, mais aussi enfermer ceux qui l'incarnent ?Dans la première partie de ce grand entretien en 4 épisodes, Naomi Titti reçoit l'écrivain Édouard Louis, l'une des voix majeures de la littérature française actuelle. Auteur de sept livres autobiographiques, il écrit pour rendre visibles les réalités et les violences qu'on refuse de voir, montrer l'impact des structures de pouvoir sur nos vies et tenter, peut-être, de renverser toutes les dominations.RÉFÉRENCES CITÉES DANS L'ÉMISSION Retrouvez toutes les références citées à la page https://www.binge.audio/podcast/les-couilles-sur-la-tableCRÉDITSLes Couilles sur la table est un podcast créé par Victoire Tuaillon produit par Binge Audio.

Jean-Luc Brunel, a French modeling agent and long-time associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was under growing French criminal investigations since around 2019 for alleged sexual exploitation, rape, trafficking of minors, and supplying underage girls to Epstein. Brunel founded agencies such as Karin Models and MC2 Model Management (with Epstein's financial backing) and has been accused by former models of years of abuse: drugging, sexual assault, and exploiting young women who were often from vulnerable backgrounds. French prosecutors officially charged him in December 2020 with rape of minors (over 15) and sexual harassment, among other offenses, and investigators were probing his role in a wider network of abuse connected to Epstein.However, Brunel's case never reached a full trial. In February 2022, he was found dead in his cell at La Santé Prison in Paris, reportedly by suicide, while in pre-trial detention. His death came after multiple suicide attempts. The result: many of his alleged victims were denied the opportunity for legal closure in court. His passing both ended the criminal proceedings against him and left significant questions unanswered about the fullness of his culpability, the extent of networked complicity, and how much evidence was gathered and might still yet emerge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

After years of the left gleefully canceling conservatives for wrongthink, they're now clutching their pearls about "censorship" when Jimmy Kimmel gets the boot from ABC. David and Brad serve up this piping hot dish of hypocrisy as they watch the woke mob suddenly believe in the First Amendment... but only when it applies to them.Other hot news topics include AOC's presidential delusions of grandeur, Trump's unfiltered diplomatic performance, and the serious legal battle over Candace Owens' conspiracy theories about France's First Lady that has a Delaware judge demanding... photographic evidence.From constitutional confusion to conspiracy courtrooms, David and Brad prove that when progressives get served their own medicine, the cognitive dissonance is both immediate and entertaining.

Russillo is first joined by QB Coach Quincy Avery to discuss the Giants giving Jaxson Dart the starting job, why Caleb Williams's ceiling is still so high, and the disappointing state of some college quarterback prospects, including Arch, Nussmeier, Klubnik, and more. He then chats with pro golfer Michael Kim, fresh off a win at the Open de France, about the Ryder Cup, how hard Bethpage Black is, and the Rory-Bryson beef. Finally, they close the show with some listener-submitted life advice, including too much licking.

This week I finish up the communal appellations of the Médoc for our "Greats of Bordeaux" series with Moulis! Map: Wines of the Médoc Although the communes of Moulis and Listrac are often seen as one in the same because both are inland and neither is adjacent to the Gironde River/Estuary, this grouping is a mistake. The wines of Moulis, especially from the Grand Poujeaux plateau next to Margaux, can rival or exceed the quality of the wines from the big name communes on the river -- Margaux, St-Julien, Pauillac, and Saint-Estèphe. Moulis is varied and not all the wines grow on the top terroir, but those that do make exquisite, ageworthy wines that are undervalued. Châteaux like Poujeaux, Chasse Spleen, and Maucaillou make top wines for relatively low prices. I spend most of the show on Moulis but also cover Listrac. Listrac, in my mind is not one of "The Greats" but it is historic and important. I review the commune and try to point out some of the main reasons I think Moulis and Listrac are so very different, with Moulis earning top billing over Listrac. This is the final in the Médoc Greats! We have covered Margaux, Saint Julien, Pauillac, Saint Estèphe, and now Moulis. We will move to Graves and Pessac-Leognan next, before ending where we began this series, on the Right Bank! Enjoy!! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

La taxe Zucman a mis la Tech française à feu et à sang. Pour en parler, j'ai réuni un plateau unique avec trois panels d'entrepreneurs, d'investisseurs et de figures fortes de la French Tech.D'un côté, ceux qui dénoncent une taxe qu'ils jugent absurde, de l'autre, ceux qui en appellent à la morale sociale et à la solidarité nationale.Vous allez assister à trois débats :- D'abord, avec Maya Noël, Guillaume Moubeche et Thierry Vandewalle, on se demande pourquoi la grande majorité de la Tech rejette cette taxe.- Ensuite, avec Pierre Gaubil, Arnaud Touati et Mehdi Medjaoui, on analyse ce que cette taxe dit de la France et de son rapport compliqué avec ses entrepreneurs et leur réussite.- Enfin, Armand Thiberge, qui a signé une tribune POUR la taxe aux côtés de JB Rudelle et d'autres stars de la French Tech, viendra défendre sa position face à Christophe Raynaud.Merci à tous mes invités d'avoir choisi le premier Talk Show Tech de France pour débattre. Installez vous confortablement, prenez vos pop-corns, je vous préviens, çà va piquer !!===============================
Nadia's personal story was published in the 4th Edition of Alcoholics Anonymous in 2001. She's the first AA member I've interviewed whose backstory can be read by anyone with a Big Book. Combined with today's interview, Nadia's story comes alive in many ways, beginning with her emigration from France after World War II with her mother who had suffered as a slave laborer under the Nazis. Landing in Canada after the war, her childhood was a wretched time in her life, during which her mother was beaten by her stepfather, while Nadia was abused both verbally and physically. By the time she left home at 18, her escape was aided greatly by the same excessive use of alcohol that had helped her survive her teenage years. University and a law degree steered her into becoming an attorney, where her first years were spent in heart-wrenching criminal cases, before she moved into corporate governance law. As with many of the attorneys I've interviewed, heavy drinking quickly became part of her life. Like many other lawyers, Nadia was able to confine her drinking to non-work hours while she continued to function and even succeed in her legal career. But inevitably, the effects of her blossoming alcoholism, including hangovers and declining performance at work, began to intrude upon her work life. After some half-hearted attempts at sobriety, Nadia rapidly descended into the darkness of despair, from which the faint beacon of Alcoholic Anonymous finally guided her toward the rooms. Thoroughly licked, and ready to do the work, Nadia found AA in 1980, and immersed herself in all aspects of the Program, including sponsoring other women and all manner of service work, both in Canada and around the world. Though Nadia's personal story is well-told in the Big Book, it's the 21 years since that story was printed that truly enhance the tale of life well-lived according the principals of the 12 steps. It's a tale that runs the gamut from tragedy to triumph, replete with human foibles along the way. I am grateful to walk alongside people like Nadia on the road of happy destiny. Whether you read Nadia's Big Book story before or after listening to this interview, I think you'll be doubly impacted by the power and grace in both versions. So please enjoy the next hour and five minutes of this episode of AA Recovery Interviews with my new friend and AA sister, Nadia S. [This is an encore of Episode 77 originally released May 11, 2022] If you've enjoyed my AA Recovery Interviews series, have a listen to “Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered From Alcoholism”. This is the word-for-word, cover-to-cover reading of the First Edition of the Big Book, published in 1939. It's a comfortable, meaningful, and engaging way to listen to the Big Book anytime, anyplace. Have a free listen at Audible, Apple Books, or Amazon. I also invite you to check out my latest audio book, Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It's an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who've never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first published. Many listeners will hear these stories for the first time. Lost Stories of the Big Book is available on Audible, Amazon, and Apple Books. It's also available as a Kindle book and in Paperbackfrom Amazon if you'd like to read along with the audio.

We all know James Baldwin the high priest of Civil Rights, but what about Jimmy B, the extremely horny homosexual? JB was a chain-smoking, vodka-swilling romantic who fell hard and often—usually for straight men he could never have.This week, Bash and his bestie guestie, Clark Moore, crack open Baldwin's chaos: from his Harlem childhood all the way to his retirement villa in the South of France.Along the way we meet the English teachers who found him a pleasure to have in class, revisit the first gay nights in Greenwich Village, and soak in the winter sun at his Swiss twink's chalet.This is a tour of Baldwin's life through his greatest loves.Get ready to talk about:Love with a capital L, and how it was the key to Baldwin's ideas on race, sex, and revolutionThe contradictions of Baldwin's genius—he was a brilliant debater who lived on a bottle a day and a prophet of love, who struggled to love himselfGiovanni's Room, the gay novel he swore wasn't about being gayAnd why his words still influence us today, from antiracists "doing the work" to an almost annual New Yorker article summing up his life, work, or legacy

Adolfo Kaminsky knew how to remove indelible ink from paper. As a member of the anti-Nazi resistance in France, he altered identification cards to save hundreds from concentration camps. Once he was given three days to forge nine hundred birth and baptismal certificates and ration cards for three hundred Jewish children. He labored two straight days without sleep, telling himself, “In one hour I can make thirty blank documents. If I sleep for an hour thirty people will die.” The apostle Paul felt a similar urgency. He reminded the church in Ephesus how he’d “served the Lord with great humility and with tears and in the midst of severe testing” (Acts 20:19). Paul said, “I have not hesitated to preach anything that would be helpful to you” (v. 20). This urgency compelled him to share with everyone the necessity of repentance and faith in Jesus (v. 21). Now he was sailing back to Jerusalem, eager to “finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace” (v. 24). Paul couldn’t save people. Only God does that. But he could tell them God’s good news about Jesus, the only “name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). Who is the Holy Spirit bringing to your mind today? You can share God’s good news with them.
In 1971, 13 men sat down in a Paris office to launch what would become one of the world's best known humanitarian organisations: Médecins Sans Frontières, or Doctors without Borders.The men were among hundreds of volunteers responding to an appeal by the French medical journal, Tonus, after a major cyclone devastated East Pakistan.The campaign sparked the idea for the charity. The 13 founders – two journalists and 11 doctors – drew up a charter aiming to provide medical care regardless of race, religion or politics. MSF's first missions included helping victims of a Nicaraguan earthquake and a hurricane in Honduras. And in 1999, the charity won the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of their work. Dr Xavier Emmanuelli, one of the founders, talks to Jane Wilkinson about setting up MSF, and his early humanitarian work.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

International pressure is ramping up on Israel over the unfolding humanitarian crisis in Gaza and settlement building in the West Bank.France has formally recognised a Palestinian state, becoming the latest in a wave of countries to take the step. We'll hear from Gaza.Also in the programme: After President Trump told pregnant women they shouldn't take paracetamol, claiming the painkiller was linked to autism, we'll hear from an autistic activist who fears it could lead to greater stigmatisation; and we'll find out why the world's most valuable company, Nvidia, has announced it's investing up to a hundred billion dollars in another tech giant for what it calls the next generation of Artificial Intelligence.(Photo shows the seat of the Israeli delegation at the United Nations in September 2025.
