Podcast appearances and mentions of francesca albanese

Join us Tuesday, June 9th, at Macro ‘n Chill, the online gathering where we'll listen to and discuss this episode. 8pm ET/5pm PT. Register with this link: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/L40tjKhOSCGCJTR-R-QJvwThe title of Robin Andersen's upcoming book (published next week) is The Complicit Lens: US Media Coverage of the Genocide in Gaza. You can see why Steve wanted to talk with her. Their conversation looks at how the corporate media helped manufacture consent for Israel's war on Gaza by erasing historical context. It is tasked with enforcing cultural hegemony à la Gramsci, and defending the interests of the imperial core.Robin goes into examples of how the media has been used to erase Palestinian history and justify war crimes. Terms like "occupation," "apartheid," and "genocide" are scrubbed from discourse to maintain ideological control. It allows the ongoing dispossession and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians to go unchallenged.As MMTers we understand – and Steve emphasizes – how state resources are mobilized without hesitation for war and geopolitical control, while austerity is imposed at home as a political choice rather than an economic necessity.In this time where journalists are under attack (literally) the episode urges solidarity with truth-tellers like Francesca Albanese who confront imperialist violence.Robin Andersen is professor emerita of media studies at Fordham University and an award-winning author of a dozen single- and co-authored books. Her work examines film, television, and media coverage of war, the environment, politics, and elections. She edits the Routledge Focus Book Series on Media and Humanitarian Action, serves as a Project Censored Judge, and contributes to the annual State of the Free Press. Andersen is on the Board of Directors of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), where she also writes regularly, and is an Izzy Award Judge for the Park Center for Independent Media. Her writing has appeared in CounterPunch, LA Progressive, The Progressive, Salon, Common Dreams, and ScheerPost, among others.@MediaPhiled on X

Francesca Albanese is the United Nations special rapporteur on Palestinian territories - a role that has seen her both revered and criticised.  

Francesca Albanese talks to Cheryl about the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, the impact of technology on modern warfare, and her career in academia and the United Nations. Her book, When the World Sleeps, is out now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Un giudice federale americano ha messo per iscritto, il 13 maggio, che gli Stati Uniti stavano punendo Francesca Albanese per le cose che dice. Richard Leon, tribunale di Washington, ha sospeso le sanzioni contro la relatrice speciale dell'Onu per i territori palestinesi occupati riconoscendo che l'amministrazione Trump ne aveva con tutta probabilità violato la libertà d'espressione, dopo le sue critiche all'azione israeliana a Gaza. Nove giorni dopo quella libertà è tornata a costare. Il 22 maggio la Corte d'appello del Distretto di Columbia ha congelato la decisione di Leon. Il 27 il Dipartimento del Tesoro ha rimesso il nome di Albanese nell'elenco dei Specially Designated Nationals, il registro dove finiscono trafficanti e organizzazioni terroristiche, senza una riga di motivazione. C'era già stata, dal 9 luglio 2025: il segretario di Stato Marco Rubio l'aveva accusata di «lawfare» per aver chiesto alla Corte penale internazionale mandati d'arresto contro dirigenti statunitensi e israeliani. La Cpi quei mandati, per Netanyahu e Gallant, li ha poi emessi. Quello che la giurista mette nero su bianco è quello che la Corte internazionale di giustizia chiama genocidio. La si iscrive nella lista dei trafficanti perché lo documenta. E Albanese è cittadina italiana: sul fatto che una sua cittadina e relatrice delle Nazioni Unite venga trattata da Washington come un contrabbandiere d'armi, dall'Italia non arriva una parola. È lo stesso governo che a febbraio, alla Conferenza sulla sicurezza di Monaco, per voce di Antonio Tajani ne aveva chiesto le dimissioni. Restano detenuti a Bengasi dieci attivisti del Land Convoy della Global Sumud Flotilla diretto a Gaza, fra cui gli italiani Domenico Centrone e Leonarda Alberizia. Sulle loro condizioni la delegazione italiana non ha notizie. Nella motivazione che la Corte d'appello ha congelato, Leon aveva scritto che le sanzioni servivano a zittire una voce. Quella voce, da mercoledì, è di nuovo sulla lista accanto ai trafficanti. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

The UN's special rapporteur for Palestine, Francesca Albanese, on the war in Gaza, living under US sanctions and accusations of antisemitism. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus

The UN special rapporteur for Palestine, Francesca Albanese, discusses the war in Gaza, living under US sanctions, and the antisemitism accusations she has faced over the last two years

Un giudice americano ha sospeso temporaneamente le sanzioni alla relatrice speciale Onu Francesca Albanese - che da luglio 2025 era sotto pesanti sanzioni. Rimangono invece in essere quelle per i giudici della Corte penale internazionale che hanno sanziono Netanyahu e Israele. Anche l'Arabia Saudita e gli Emirati Arabi Uniti hanno attaccato l'Iran a inizio aprile, in maniera segreta e non dichiarata, appena prima del cessate il fuoco. Ci sono 14 bandiere blu sulle spiagge italiane per quest'estate grazie al lavoro dei comuni balneari, per un totale ora di 274 bandiere blu.

Nell'anniversario della Nakba, l'esodo forzato palestinese di quasi 80 anni fa, due notizie importanti arrivano dal fronte palestinese: un giudice americano ha sospeso, almeno per ora, le sanzioni contro Francesca Albanese, mentre la Global Sumud Flotilla è ripartita verso Gaza. Poi andiamo in Argentina, dove una marea di persone è scesa in piazza contro i tagli di Milei all'università pubblica. Infine vi racconto una storia molto particolare: due anni fa Parigi ha fatto una prova generale del suo futuro climatico, simulando un'ondata di calore da 50 gradi. Oggi, si vedono dei frutti interessanti.INDICE:00:00:00 - Sommario00:00:51 - Un giudice Usa ha sospeso le sanzioni contro Francesca Albanese00:04:48 - La Global Sumud Flotilla è ripartita00:08:35 - Le grandi manifestazioni in Argentina contro i talgi all'università00:11:52 - L'esperimento climatico di ParigiFonti: https://www.italiachecambia.org/podcast/nakba-gaza/Abbonati a Italia che Cambia: https://www.italiachecambia.org/abbonati/ Iscriviti alla newsletter: https://bit.ly/4v3UjDYVuoi sostenere Io Non Mi Rassegno?

Este episódio do Podcast 15 Minutos analisa a decisão de um juiz federal norte-americano que suspendeu as sanções impostas pelos Estados Unidos contra Francesca Albanese, relatora especial da ONU.

En la Mesa de Redacción con Marina Martínez Vicens, Eulalia Rosa y Roger de Gràcia Contamos la llegada del buque Hondius a Tenerife y el desembarco de los pasajeros que quedaban a bordo tras el brote de hantavirus. También hablamos con Francesca Albanese, la relatora de la ONU para los crímenes de Gaza a la que Israel y Estados Unidos intentan callar.

Il 6 febbraio 2025, settantanove paesi firmatari dello Statuto di Roma si erano riuniti alle Nazioni Unite per difendere la Corte penale internazionale dalle sanzioni di Donald Trump. Tra i firmatari quasi tutti i membri dell'Ue: Francia, Germania, Spagna, Austria, Polonia. Non l'Italia. Il governo non spiegò il perché. Tajani aveva detto che bisognava forse «aprire un'inchiesta sulla Corte penale». Nordio l'aveva attaccata in Parlamento. Quella firma non era assenza distratta: era una posizione. Il 6 maggio 2026, il premier spagnolo Pedro Sánchez ha inviato una lettera alla presidente della Commissione europea Ursula von der Leyen chiedendo l'attivazione del regolamento n. 2271/1996, lo «statuto di blocco». Lo strumento, nato per neutralizzare sanzioni extraterritoriali di paesi terzi, era già servito contro le misure Usa sull'Iran. Sánchez vuole che protegga i giudici della Cpi e Francesca Albanese, relatrice speciale dell'Onu per i territori palestinesi occupati, sanzionata da Washington nel luglio 2025. Ha scritto a von der Leyen che le sanzioni «compromettono il funzionamento indipendente di istituzioni essenziali per la giustizia internazionale» e che il meccanismo deve «superare la logica commerciale con cui è stato creato». Il dossier andrà al Consiglio europeo del 18 giugno. Chi attiva lo «statuto di blocco» vieta ai soggetti europei di rispettare le sanzioni straniere e consente loro di recuperare i danni davanti ai tribunali dell'Unione. La Cpi ha emesso mandati d'arresto per crimini di guerra commessi a Gaza. Albanese documenta quegli stessi fatti ed è sanzionata per questo. Sánchez, nella lettera, usa la parola genocidio. Dall'Italia nessuna presa di posizione. Il governo che aveva scelto di non firmare si trova fuori da questo secondo perimetro. Roma tace. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

La Relatrice speciale dell'ONU per i Territori palestinesi è un personaggio divisivo, e sa di esserlo. Eppure, è soprattutto grazie al suo lavoro se i massacri a Gaza e gli altri crimini commessi da Israele a danno dei palestinesi sono al centro della discussione in Europa. Per questo le sue apparizioni pubbliche, specie in Germania, sono caratterizzate da manifestazioni contrapposte di chi la sostiene e di chi la accusa addirittura di antisemitismo.

Host/Producer: Amy Browne Following up on yesterday’s report, today organizers of The Consequence of Palestine- (Maine Coalition for Palestine, www.mvprights.org/ -weigh in on the controversy in a press release. Resources included with the press release: “[E]stablished case law pertaining to nearly identical conferences and academic events” provided by organizers “Trump Administration Concedes U.S. Researchers may Talk with Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on Palestine, Despite Sanctions” – “The First Amendment generally forecloses the government from using its sanctions authority to suppress the exchange of ideas—and it certainly prohibits the government from preventing scholars from engaging with one of the foremost experts in their field,” says Xiangnong (George) Wang, staff attorney at the Knight First Amendment Institute. “The Treasury Department's concession is a significant reprieve to the many American scholars, journalists, and advocates that have been chilled from exercising their rights because they fear liability under U.S. sanctions laws.” “OFAC SIGNALS POLICY CHANGE ON HOLDING CONFERENCES WITH SANCTIONED SPEAKERS” – “Marking what appears to be a reversal of previous policy, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) determined that US persons can, subject to certain limitations, include sanctioned persons as speakers at overseas conferences without specific authorization.” “The authority granted to the president of the United States under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the regulation or prohibition of most types of communication that do not involve the transfer of anything of value (50 USC § 1702(b)(1)). The Berman Amendment, added to IEEPA in 1988, stipulates that the president cannot regulate or ban the import or export of “informational materials” to or from adversarial nations or individuals.” “By reversing its stance in the GPE case, and by issuing the letter as part of the public record in the court proceedings, OFAC appears content to publicly clarify and refine its position on this issue: allowing sanctioned individuals to speak at events organized by US citizens is not a service so long as no financial transactions or other exchanges of benefits take place” Letter to Middle East Studies Association from OFAC Media Advisory – The Consequence of Palestine, February 16 Support for Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories: 30 Jewish Organizations: We Support UN Human Rights Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Independent Jewish Voices, Canada, November 5, 2024 “Jewish Voice for Peace strongly condemns the Trump administration's announcement of sanctions against UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Francesca Albanese. This is a blatantly political attack that seeks to silence Palestinian rights advocates and undermine international law”, social media post “Impunity will end: Francesca Albanese keeps hopeful”, Jewish Voice for Liberation, Wed 28 Jan 2026 Links from Part 1 (aired 2/25/26): “The Consequence of Palestine” Conference Coming to USM, Munjoy Hill News, Portland, 18 February 2026 (NOTE: CANCELLED) Press Statement, US Imposing Sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in the Palestinian Territories Occupied since 1967, Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, 9 July 2025 Report: “Gaza Genocide: a collective crime” by the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, United Nations Francesca Albanese, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories Global: European states must retract outrageous attacks on UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Amnesty International, 13 Feb 2026 They tried to silence her – they failed, Jewish Voice for Liberation, 23 Feb 2025 About the host: Amy Browne started out at WERU as a volunteer news & public affairs producer in 2000, co-hosting/co-producing RadioActive with Meredith DeFrancesco.

 A fost o comunicare excesiva sau o reactie responsabila si transparenta? Alexandru Rogobete a fost criticat in spatiul public, inclusiv de reprezentanții unor companii aeriene, pentru că a înspăimântat populația fara sa aiba date concrete despre situatia aparatului de zbor. Unde a gresit , discutam imediat.      Elevii pot folosi inteligența artificială la școală Colegiul Tehnic de Căi Ferate „Unirea” din Pașcani este primul liceu din Iași care a stabilit reguli foarte clare în acest domeniu. Documentul stabilește și măsurile pe care profesorii trebuie să le ia atunci când există suspiciuni privind folosirea neautorizată a inteligentei artificiale.  Franta și Germania cer demisia raportoarei speciale a ONU pentru teritoriile palestiniene, Francesca Albanese, care a denunțat genocidul din Fâșia Gaza Controversa a luat amploare în Hexagon după ce deputați din tabăra prezidențială au acuzat-o pe expertă că ar fi desemnat ''Israelul drept un dușman comun al umanității'', ceea ce Francesca Albanese a negat categoric. Ea a denuntat ''acuzații false'' și o ''manipulare'' a declarațiilor sale.  În Mexic s-a dezlănțuit haosul după uciderea unui baron al drogurilor Bărbaţi înarmaţi suspectaţi a fi susţinătorii săi au blocat autostrăzile din mai multe state şi au incendiat maşini şi magazine.

A series of warnings from artificial intelligence (AI) industry insiders shows how the debate around AI drives extreme news cycles, swinging between hype and alarm. The result is media coverage that overlooks the intricacies of this technology and its impact on everyday life. We examine the real risks, what's being overstated, and what major tech companies stand to gain from all the fearmongering. Contributors: Rumman Chowdhury – Founder, Humane Intelligence Mutale Nkonde – Founder, AI for the People Chris Stokel-Walker – Author of the book How AI Ate the World On our radar Francesca Albanese, the United Nations' special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, has found herself in the middle of a political firestorm, all because of comments she never actually made. After a manipulated video of Albanese calling Israel the “enemy of humanity” went viral,  there were calls for her resignation across Europe. The UN has labelled these allegations part of a wider smear campaign to discredit Albanese and the UN itself. A curated view of Israel for African journalists For decades, the Israeli government and pro-Israel organisations have sponsored trips for politicians, celebrities and journalists, inviting them to visit and, as they put it, tell the “real story” about Israel. In the past, those invitations largely targeted figures from Western countries. But since October 7th, there has been a noticeable shift towards African journalists and social media influencers. The objective is clear: to shape coverage in African media and influence audiences across the continent. The Listening Post's Nic Muirhead reports on the African journalists taking part in these fully funded, tightly managed visits to Israel.

¿Puede existir justicia global cuando investigar a los poderosos tiene consecuencias personales? La experta en derechos humanos de la ONU, Francesca Albanese,

In this conversation, John Billington and Pete Owen discuss the current geopolitical landscape, focusing on the tensions in the Middle East, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, and the implications of Europe's quest for power. They explore Russia's military strategy, the rise of a potential beast system in Europe, and Israel's political maneuvers regarding Palestinian statehood. The discussion also touches on the role of the UN and the broader prophetic implications of these events that will culminate in the coming Kingdom of God on earth!

Phase one of Donald Trump's ceasefire in Gaza appears to be holding, but it's precarious as hundreds of Gazans have been killed since it began and hundreds of thousands remain homeless and displaced.The Israeli defence force still occupies much of the territory and Hamas have re-established themselves in some areas.So is phase two - with its transitional authority and international peace force looking any way possible?Benjamin Netanyahu says it's close, but what's the view of the Palestinians?One person who has reflected their concerns since the current conflict began is Francesca Albanese, the UN's special rapporteur on the Palestinian territories. She has been an outspoken critic of Israel's actions in Gaza, accusing the government of genocide. It's made her powerful enemies including the Trump administration who have sanctioned her while the Israeli government accuse her of bias and have designated her persona non grata.She joined Krishnan Guru Murthy for this episode of The Fourcast.

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. NY correspondent Luke Tress joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Democrat Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa. The far-left anti-Israel activist, a state assemblymember, is, at 34, the city’s youngest mayor in over a century. We talk about concerns among some of New York’s large Jewish community and early reactions from communal organizations. Mamdani has previously stated his intention not to invest city funds in Israel bonds, in keeping with the current comptroller’s decision not to reinvest when $39 million in bonds matured in 2023. In May 2023, Mamdani, then a member of the New York State Assembly, introduced a bill called “Not on our dime!: Ending New York funding of Israeli settler violence act.” Tress weighs in on what powers Mamdani has to enact his ideological anti-Israel stance. And finally, we discuss a cartoon from the UN special rapporteur for the Palestinians, Francesca Albanese. Last week, Albanese posted a cartoon denouncing Israel, depicting what appears to be a global spiderweb, in an image that experts said echoed age-old antisemitic tropes. We hear what Tress heard from experts.Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, to expose the corruption and hypocrisy within the United Nations and how it has become one of the world's biggest enablers of antisemitism and terror.From the Soviet Union's 1975 campaign declaring “Zionism is racism” to today's Hamas apologists like Francesca Albanese, Neuer reveals how the UN was captured by authoritarian regimes and weaponised against Israel. He details how organisations like UNRWA have been infiltrated by Hamas operatives, turning schools and aid programmes into fronts for jihad — all funded by Western taxpayers.Neuer explains why the so-called “rules-based international order” never truly existed, how the Human Rights Council became a haven for dictatorships, and why Britain and Europe continue to bankroll organisations that indoctrinate children to hate.A shocking and essential conversation on the UN's betrayal of its founding principles, the persistence of antisemitism in international institutions, and the urgent need for moral courage and reform in the West.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 0:00 Introduction2:59 Francesca Albanese and the UN's Inconsistencies 5:16 Albanese's Support for Hamas and Anti-Semitism8:03 The UN Human Rights Council and Its Members 11:00 The UN's Political Nature and the ICJ 13:24 The UN's Decline and the Soviet Influence17:17 The 1975 UN Resolution on Zionism29:52 UNRWA's Role and Its Radicalisation 34:24 UNRWA's Operations and Corruption52:15 The Need for De-Radicalisation and Reform 55:04 The Role of the UN and Future Reforms Hosted on Acast.

Nuovo appuntamento con il sabato di «Giorno per giorno»: l'editorialista torna sugli argomenti di cui ha scritto durante la settimana nella sua rubrica «Il Caffè», integrandoli con i commenti nel frattempo ricevuti dai lettori.I link di corriere.it:Il sindaco di Reggio Emilia cita il 7 ottobre e la liberazione degli ostaggi come «condizione» per la pace all'evento per Francesca Albanese.

This week Lara and Michael sit down with Jenin, the Palestine representative of CODEPINK to discuss Francesca Albanese's report "From economy of occupation to economy of genocide." We talk about how Airbnb and other corporations profit from the forced displacement of Palestinians. The company has over 300 listings in illegal settlements in the West Bank and we chat about the upcoming litigation against the company, as well as the campaigns spearheaded by CODEPINK to encourage people to boycott Airbnb. 

Ralph welcomes Timothy Whitehouse, executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) to speak about how federal workers across all government agencies are being unfairly denigrated and summarily fired by the Trump Administration to clear the way for corporate corruption. Plus, we are joined by Toby Heaps, Editor-in-Chief of “Corporate Knights” magazine to talk about the benefits of the cooperative business model over the corporate shareholder model.Timothy Whitehouse is executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER). Prior to joining PEER, he was a senior attorney at the Environmental Protection Agency and was head of the Law and Policy Program at the North American Commission for Environmental Cooperation in Montreal.The time to stigmatize federal workers is over. It's time to start rallying for unions for federal workers and what they do, and to support the idea that government plays an important role and that government (the civil service) must be as non-political as possible. Our country will be much better for it.Timothy WhitehouseThat's a good way to describe it: supersonic. We knew things were going to be really bad, but they are much worse than bad because there's no check and no balance on this President's madness. And some of the people and institutions we had hoped would stand up a little bit are collapsing one by one.Timothy WhitehouseOur foreign enemies could not have devised a better way to grind our system to a halt, and that's what's happening.Timothy WhitehouseToby Heaps is the CEO and co-founder of Corporate Knights, and Editor-in-Chief of Corporate Knights magazine. He spearheaded the first global ranking of the world's 100 most sustainable corporations in 2005, and in 2007 coined the term “clean capitalism.” Toby has been published in the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, and the Globe and Mail, and is a regular guest speaker on CBC.I think in the co-op movement, the biggest bugaboo holding it back (in North America, that is) is people's perception that it's not a significant force. And it is already a significant force. In many cases, we're not familiar that the company might be a co-op (such as Associated Press or Ocean Spray) but in the United States alone, the turnover of co-op enterprises sales in 2023 was $324 billion US. And so, it's a significant part of the economy already.Toby HeapsI can't underline enough that if you care about a sustainable economy that works for people and planet, that the operating model is not just the clean economy (the environmentally friendly economy), it's the cooperatively-run economy.Toby HeapsThe principal obstacle to co-ops is the inadequate engagement of consumers to know about the huge benefits— to control the local economy from multinational corporations (absentee), who are pulling strings in ways that are very damaging, and basically to assume the purchasing power of the consumer.Ralph NaderNews 9/12/2025* Several major stories surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case have emerged in the past week. First, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have released a note written by President Trump to Epstein included in the latter's “birthday book” from 2003. In this note, Trump refers to Epstein as his “pal” and writes “May every day be another wonderful secret," according to Reuters. Trump has denied that this letter even existed, going so far as to sue the Wall Street Journal for defamation over their reporting in July. Trump continues to deny that he wrote the letter, though his signature is a perfect match, and he has sought to tamp down the matter, calling it a “dead issue,” per NBC.* In Congress, Republican allies of Donald Trump are seeking to quash the Epstein issue as well. On Tuesday, Republicans on the House Rules Committee “shot down a bid to put the Epstein Files Transparency Act—which would compel the Justice Department to release all unclassified records related to Jeffrey Epstein—to a floor vote,” in an 8–4 party-line vote, the New Republic reports. However, despite this setback, dissident Republican Thomas Massie continues to press the issue. Speaking about the birthday note, Massie said “It's…indicative of the things that might come out if we were to release all of the files…embarrassing, but not indictable. And I don't think avoiding embarrassment is a reason to avoid justice,” per CNN. Massie added in an interview on ABC that "I think it's going to be embarrassing to some of the billionaires, some of the donors who are politically connected to [Trump's] campaign. There are probably intelligence ties to our CIA and maybe to other foreign intelligence." Democrat Ro Khanna insisted in this same interview that he and his allies, including Massie, will be able to pull together a House majority of 218 members to force a vote on releasing the files.* Our final Epstein story for the week concerns James O'Keefe. Former leader of Project Veritas, O'Keefe continues to carry out far-right hidden-camera sting operations. In a rare move targeting conservatives, O'Keefe engineered a date between Joseph Schnitt, a deputy chief of staff at the Office of Enforcement Operations at DOJ, and an operative in his employ wherein Schnitt admitted that the Trump administration will “redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, [and] leave all the liberal, Democratic people.” In this video, Schnitt also implies that Epstein's lieutenant, Ghislaine Maxwell was relocated to a lower security prison to “keep her mouth shut,” as part of a deal with the government. This according to the Hill. One should certainly take revelations from O'Keefe with a heavy dose of salt, but these troubling comments should also raise suspicions about the government's possible plans to manipulate information related to this case for political ends.* Aside from the Epstein affair, the Trump administration continues to issue destructive policy directives in all directions. AP reports the federal Department of Transportation has scrapped a Biden-era rule that required airlines to “compensate stranded passengers with cash, lodging and meals for flight cancellations or changes caused by a carrier.” This rule, which sought “compensation starting at $200…[and] as high as $775…for delays of nine hours or more,” was consistent with European aviation consumer protections. Unsurprisingly, airlines – represented by lobbyists in the employ of the industry trade group Airlines for America – bitterly resisted the rule and celebrated the administration's abandonment of this basic consumer protection. The Biden Transportation Department had also been weighing rules that would have required airlines to provide, “free rebooking on the next available flight, including flights on rival airlines, as well as meals and lodging when passengers are stranded overnight.”* At the same time, the Trump administration's Federal Trade Commission is abandoning its rules banning noncompete clauses for employees. An eye-popping 1 in 5 workers are bound by noncompetes, approximately 30 million Americans, and experts estimated that banning such clauses could boost wages to the tune of nearly $300 billion per year and help create 8,500 new businesses, per NPR. The FTC voted 3-1 to vacate its defense of the rule, with Chair Andrew Ferguson and Melissa Holyoak, both Republicans, issuing a joint statement. Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, the lone remaining Democrat on the commission after Trump purged the FTC earlier this year, voted no.* Turning to foreign affairs, the Guardian reports two ships in the Gaza aid flotilla have been struck by drone attacks while docked in Tunisia. The first struck the Family Boat, which carries activist Greta Thunberg, though she was not on board at the time. The second struck the Alma, a ship bearing British flags while docked in the port of Sidi Bou Said. In a video, one can see, “a luminous object hitting the boat and fire erupting on board.” Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, is quoted saying, ‘‘Authoritative sources suggest the attack involved an incendiary grenade, wrapped in plastic materials soaked in fuel, which may have ignited before even hitting the vessel.” These attacks come amidst a renewed Israeli bombing campaign against its neighbors, including bombing the Qatari capital of Doha and the Yemeni capital Sanaa. Trump says he is “very unhappy” about the strikes; Israel's ambassador to the United States however says the world will “get over it.” This from Al Jazeera.* Meanwhile, Drop Site is out with yet another bombshell report, this time on Israel's propaganda push to cover up the scale of the hunger crisis in Gaza. According to this report, the Netanyahu government signed a previously unreported $45 million deal with Google to push false propaganda through the massive platform. One video, viewed more than 6 million times, asserts “There is food in Gaza. Any other claim is a lie.” Israel also reportedly paid $3 million for an ad campaign on X, formerly Twitter, and another $2 million on a French platform called Outbrain. This report also cites other examples of Israeli propaganda campaigns in recent years, including against UNRWA and regarding the illegal strikes in Iran.* In more positive news, the pro-Palestine campaign in Hollywood continues to grow. This week, Variety reports a group of over 3,900 filmmakers, actors and other industry professionals signed a new pledge to boycott working with “Israeli film institutions and companies that are ‘implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.'” This group includes many household names, such as Mark Ruffalo, Joaquin Phoenix, Jonathan Glazer, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, Emma Stone, Boots Riley, Ayo Edebiri, and many, many more. The list continues to grow as this pledge circulates. According to the Hollywood Reporter, this campaign is led by Film Workers for Palestine, which explicitly modeled their strategy after Filmmakers United Against Apartheid. That group, founded by eminent filmmakers like Martin Scorsese, demanded that the film industry refuse distribution in apartheid South Africa.* Beyond Israel/Palestine, events are rocking Nepal, the small Himalayan nation that lies between India and China. The BBC reports “Fierce protests against corruption and nepotism spiralled into arson and violence on Tuesday. The prime minister resigned as politicians' homes were vandalised, government buildings torched and parliament set ablaze. Twenty-nine people have died since Monday.” The "Gen Z" youth groups leading the protests have distanced themselves from these acts of destruction, claiming their movement was "hijacked" by "opportunists". Nepal's military has been deployed in the capital of Kathmandu in an attempt to restore order and enforce a curfew. The government of Nepal, led by now-ousted Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli, sought to cultivate a closer relationship with China to offset Nepal's historical dependence on India. For the time being, China seems to be taking a wait and see approach to the situation in Nepal, with foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian calling for all parties to “properly handle domestic issues and restore social order and national stability as soon as possible,” per the South China Morning Post.* Finally, Democracy Now! reports that in an apparent fit of retaliation, the Trump administration is now threatening to redeport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the American green card holder recently returned from his wrongful deportation to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison. This time, instead of sending him to El Salvador, the government plans to send Garcia to the tiny African kingdom of Eswatini, formerly Swaziland. Garcia had previously expressed fear of being deported to Uganda. This move would surely be punitive, capricious and just plain bizarre, but that is hardly a deviation from the course of the Trump administration. We express solidarity with Garcia, who stands practically alone against the juggernaut of the United States' deportation apparatus.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

This week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the United States will be imposing sanctions on Francesca Albanese, a controversial United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on Palestinian rights. Albanese has been pushing that U.S. and Israeli officials, companies and executives should be brought before the International Criminal Court (ICC). Also, a new report accuses Hamas of using sexual violence as a weapon of war during the October 7th terror attack. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Hillel Neuer, the Executive Director of United Nations Watch, a human rights group based in Geneva, Switzerland, who says commends Secretary Rubio for taking action against a longtime enemy of the United States and Israel.
