Individuals imprisoned for their religion or belief continue to face state repression even upon their release. For example, in Saudi Arabia, China, and Egypt, many released prisoners face bans on leaving the country, preventing them from visiting family, speaking freely about their experiences, or finding work or residency in other countries. Such bans often have little oversight, transparency, or opportunity for appeal. In Vietnam, individuals are pressured not to speak to media or post on social media. In Nicaragua they are deported from the country as a condition for their release. Individuals in Iran may be forbidden from joining social groups or civil society organizations or face restrictions on their religious activities. They also may be sent into internal exile, miles away from their family and friends. In this episode of USCIRF Spotlight, Chair Vicky Hartzler speaks with Freedom House President Gerardo Berthin about individuals who continue to face restrictions on their religious freedom even after leaving prison. The episode highlights USCIRF-recommended CPC and SWL countries where such practices are in place and discusses policy recommendations for Congress and the administration to hold accountable governments engaged in these restrictions.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joins Uncommon Knowledge with Peter Robinson at the Governor's Mansion in Tallahassee to explain how Florida transformed from a razor-thin swing state into one of the fastest-growing and most politically distinct states in the country. DeSantis outlines his governing philosophy—pairing conservative policy with a focus on competence—and details the results: rapid population growth, rising revenues without an income tax, debt reduction, and a dramatic political realignment. He reflects on controversial decisions during COVID, his approach to education reform and school choice, and high-profile battles with corporations, universities, and cultural institutions. The discussion also explores broader themes, including the decline of identity politics, the future of the Republican Party, and the enduring relevance of America's founding principles.

A few months ago, on an atlas bash in the Free State, I met Cameron Blair. After some great evening conversations about birding, and especially his love for cisticolas, I knew I had to get him onto the podcast.We sat down last week to record what was meant to be one episode, but it quickly turned into two. So this is the start of a special two-part conversation with a fascinating ornithological student. We unpack how a project he started at just 12 years old, along with where he grew up, shaped his journey into birding.He shares his passion for honeyguides and cisticolas, along with plenty of other great insights. There is also a lot of practical advice here, especially if you want to get better at identifying cisticolas.There were a few recording challenges on Cameron's side, which you may hear in parts of the audio, but don't let that distract you.This is a conversation you don't want to miss.Visit our online store to get your birding related merchandise at great prices https://www.thebirdinglife.com/online-storeIntro and outro music by Tony ZA https://soundcloud.com/tonyofficialza

In March 1922, a relatively unknown member of the IRA was asked by journalists if they could take from his answers that Ireland would have a military dictatorship.‘You can take it anyway you like,' he replied.On Free State today we look at the life of Rory O'Connor who was prepared to go to any lengths for the Republic of his ideals. We talk to the author of a new biography of O'Connor Gerard Shannon about the fanaticism that drove him.O'Connor became the public face of opposition to the Treaty but he also became the most human face when he was executed in December 1922, following a decision by the Free State cabinet including his great friend Kevin O'Higgins.O'Connor had been best man at O'Higgins's wedding a year before and now O'Higgins was part of the brutal decision to have him executed. Shannon explains too why O'Connor faded from memory after his death and the extraordinary coincidence behind the killing of O'Higgins as he walked home from Mass in 1927. Hosted on Acast.

Mandelson was UnimpressiveAs I record this the future of Keir Starmer, as British Prime Minister, is a topic of conversation because of his mishandling of the Peter Mandelson affair. I know nothing about the ongoing scandal around Jeffrey Epstein other than what I read or see in the media. But the evidence of his serial abuse of young women going back many years is plain to see. My heart goes out to the victims and survivors of this despicable cabal Goodbye Dearest HeartThis week sees the republication of Jim McVeigh's excellent book – Goodbye Dearest Heart - on the life of Joe McKelvey who was executed by the Free State in 1922 aged 24. It tells not just the personal story of Joe McKelvey but also the remarkable times in which he lived.Joe McKelvey was born in Stewartstown in county Tyrone but moved to the Falls area of west Belfast as a teenager. He was a committed Gael who in 1916 was a founder member of the O'Donovan Rossa CLG in Beechmount.Jim McVeigh tells how McKelvey joined the Irish Republican Army in Belfast and quickly rose through its ranks to become O.C. (Officer Commanding) of the Third Northern Division which had responsibility for Belfast. McKelvey's time as O.C. coincided with the partition of Ireland. We Are Not NumbersLate last year I came across a book written by young people living in or exiled from the Gaza Strip - ‘We Are Not Numbers: The Voices of Gaza's Youth.' Through their words it gives testimony to the horror that the Palestinian people face daily in Gaza under Israeli occupation and blockade. The book spans ten years. It tells of the experience of young people and their community trying to survive against a ruthless enemy that does not see them as human beingsThe organisation We Are Not Numbers (WANN) was founded in 2015.

Send us a message! Really!This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, there's an old saying that “No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session,” but whoever said that obviously didn't live in the Free State of Colorado where the second regular session of the 75th General Assembly kicks off this week. Also, The big sibling of the state legislature known as Congress tried and sadly failed to assert its coequal status as a branch of the federal government, but hey, at least they're trying! Then, Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser is meeting the unprecedented times our state is facing with unprecedented action from his office, and we really hope that it's enough to stave off President Trump's all out assault on Colorado. We've got some more 2026 news for you, but first, a masked ICE agent shot and killed a Coloradan in Minnesota, and the Trump administration would like you to please not believe your own eyes, ears, or any of the witnesses or videos from the altercation in the most dystopian effort from our federal government yet, while at the same time threatening more foreign military intervention if, get this, Iran kills protesters.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with researcher and truth seeker Kenny Plaster, whose mission is to help people reclaim their rights, question broken systems, and live freely. We dive into how distraction and division keep people focused on surface-level political battles while deeper forces shape systems behind the scenes. Kenny breaks down how legal and financial contracts work (often without our full understanding or consent) and how knowledge of our inherent rights can create real empowerment. He also explains the difference between rights and privileges, the evolution of citizenship status, and how modern systems rely on compliance more than coercion.If you've ever sensed that there's more beneath the surface of modern governance, this conversation is your invitation to look deeper, ask better questions, and stand more firmly in your own power.
