Tensions with Iran reach a breaking point as bizarre propaganda meets deadly serious threats. Tara Servatius breaks down Iran's outlandish claim that Israel is deploying “ghosts, demons, and witches” to assassinate Iranian leaders, while U.S. officials weigh surgical military strikes to neutralize nuclear facilities. Former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook outlines Trump's strategic options — including joint Israeli strikes and devastating bunker-buster bombing campaigns. Meanwhile, Tara and Lisa dive deep into geopolitical power dynamics, calling out misplaced U.S. focus on Russia while China and Iran menace the globe. This pivotal conversation challenges conventional narratives, explores military history in real time, and warns of the high stakes if America fails to act with resolve.

Two explosive stories converge: Israel's Mossad pulls off a covert drone strike from inside Iran, signaling a potential collapse of Iran's influence as its proxy Hezbollah backs down. Meanwhile, America faces a sobering reality—China's grip on rare earth minerals forces Trump into a humiliating compromise, allowing 500,000 Chinese students to remain in the U.S., even after a bioweapon smuggling incident. Domestically, the chaos escalates. Democrats defend lawlessness as Senator Padilla disrupts a press event under the guise of “oversight,” while Gallup reveals even Democrat voters are rejecting woke extremism. Ron DeSantis champions the right to self-defense in Florida, and a new push to ban Big Pharma ads emerges amid revelations the government hid vaccine risks. This episode connects the dots between global intelligence warfare, economic coercion, and America's cultural battle—all in a time of critical decision-making.

Their conversation sheds light on contradictions, realignments, and the potential for a fairer, more collaborative international system in uncertain times.

At the end of ww1, the vast but ailing Russian empire collapsed. What followed was regicide, civil war and famine. But just a generation later, the world had changed. Russia, now part of the Soviet Union found itself uniquely positioned to itself on the global scene in a way it had done before. In this episode I speak with Russian born historian Sergey Rachenko, he Wilson E. Schmidt Distinguished Professor at the Henry A.

In this jam-packed episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ghost tackle the geopolitical chessboard reshaped by Trump's triumphant Middle East tour. From trillion-dollar investment deals to the snub heard 'round the world, Trump's strategic bypass of Netanyahu signals a seismic shift in the U.S.-Israel relationship. Ghost breaks down the symbolic sword dances, economic alliances with MBS and Qatar, and what it all means for the emerging sovereign order. Meanwhile, back in the States, Biden's Gleason-9 prostate cancer diagnosis raises serious red flags. The hosts question the timing, transparency, and potential narrative utility of the announcement, especially in light of the devastating Robert Hur tapes and Biden's cognitive decline. They also explore the AutoPen scandal, Jill Biden's rumored revenge arc, and how the Democrats may be preparing a scorched-earth exit. The show hits everything from Trump's peace-brokering ambitions in Ukraine and Syria to bizarre Supreme Court rulings, DOJ shake-ups, and rumors of rogue North Korean special forces liberating Africa. Add in some spicy media takedowns, international election interference, and birthday celebrations for Ghost, and you've got one hell of an episode.

In this fiery and controversial commentary, hosts dissect former President Donald Trump's recent Middle East tour, framing it as a monumental pivot in U.S. foreign policy. The discussion highlights major tech and AI partnerships, unprecedented business deals, and a unified regional approach that seeks to sideline China's influence. Contrasting Trump's strategy with Democratic leadership, the episode dives deep into issues of American identity, economic policy, immigration, and global alliances—arguing this trip could be remembered as a defining moment in modern geopolitical history.

Qatar wants to gift Trump a $400 million jet, and the debate is already on fire—some say it's unethical, others question if it's even constitutional. But what's really going on here? In this episode, I unpack the bigger picture. I believe this move is Trump sending a message to Israel and Netanyahu: America—not Israel—is in control. And frankly, that message is long overdue. Israel has caused more harm than necessary in recent months, and it's time for the U.S. to reassert its authority on the world stage. This isn't just about a jet. It's about power, alliances, and who's really in charge.--https://noblegoldinvestments.com/

In this fiery monologue, Tara dissects the recent media narrative surrounding Trump's tariffs, pushing back against claims of inflation and exposing what she views as a coordinated attempt by globalist elites and mainstream media to undermine Trump's economic and foreign policy victories. From inflation myths to the shocking economic pivot in Saudi Arabia, this segment traces a high-stakes geopolitical realignment and a flex of American power the media couldn't ignore.

Andy Schectman returns to the program to discuss the latest shifts in the economic landscape, including the rapid global de-dollarization movement, record-breaking central bank gold purchases, and the accelerating transition toward BRICS+ trade alliances. We explore the growing global distrust in Western financial institutions and how Trump's actions may be fueling a dangerous game as a historic monetary realignment unfolds. We break down what these changes mean for everyday people, how wealth is being quietly repositioned, and why precious metals are once again at the heart of global strategy.Learn how you can protect your assets with Gold and Silver at https://SarahWestall.com/MilesFranklin

This broadcast explores two major stories ignored by mainstream American media: the Pentagon's plan to cut top military brass, viewed as a reversal of what the host calls a “Marxist purge” under Obama, and a foreign report that India has accepted all U.S. trade demands under Trump, signaling a major shift in global alliances. Tying both narratives together, the host argues that powerful institutions at home and abroad are being challenged by nationalist and constitutionalist movements—developments the legacy media allegedly refuse to cover.

In a whirlwind of breaking developments, Donald Trump signs an executive order banning gain-of-function research in foreign countries, while RFK Jr. delivers a bombshell interview detailing the U.S. government's controversial history with bioweapons research and Anthony Fauci's alleged role in past lab leaks. Meanwhile, India pivots toward the U.S. in the global trade war, signaling a major geopolitical shift—and it's all happening under the radar of mainstream media.

Donald Trump's executive order banning gain-of-function research abroad, coupled with RFK Jr.'s explosive claims about Fauci's bioweapons history, signals a seismic reckoning in U.S. public health policy. Simultaneously, India quietly aligns with the U.S. in the trade war against China, marking a dramatic geopolitical turn. With mainstream media largely silent, these interconnected events reveal a deeper struggle over transparency, power, and the future of global influence.

Global power deficit and solutions   The discussion will address the power deficit we are experiencing and how new demands for power are navigated across different regions.

As China's economy teeters on the edge of collapse, U.S. tariffs under Donald Trump have triggered mass factory shutdowns, skyrocketing unemployment, and rising civil unrest. This explosive analysis dives into the unfolding economic catastrophe in China, the potential endgame of Communist Party rule, and the growing belief that the world is entering an economic war with global dominance at stake. With deflation, riots, and nationalist rhetoric on the rise, is China on the brink of its own 2008-style meltdown—and what role will the West play in shaping the outcome?

TDS Worldwide, Trump Playing Economic Chicken, Global Power Shifts w/ Andy Schectman - SarahWestall.com

A landmark agreement between the U.S. and Ukraine grants America first rights to Ukraine's natural resources—coal, gas, and critical minerals—while signaling financial and defensive commitments that may pressure Russia to negotiate. This deal gives Trump newfound geopolitical leverage and potentially reshapes U.S.-Russia-China relations.

The current administration in the United States is adversarial towards renewable energy and highly supportive of the use of fossil fuels.  Unquestionably, this will create rough waters for the clean energy industry and, unfortunately, will throw a monkey wrench into the world's efforts to mitigate climate change.  But it cannot stop what has become a […]

Tom Bilyeu is joined by his insightful co-host, Drew, to confront a cascade of world-shaking headlines and dig into their far-reaching implications. Kicking things off with a prophetic rundown of global events—ranging from the death of Pope Francis to tech innovations straight out of sci-fi—Tom and Drew tackle the convergence of geopolitics, religion, and technology like never before. Together, they examine the unique legacy of Pope Francis, the strategic genius (and missteps) in religious recruitment, and the historic moments that shaped global culture. The conversation then pivots to the U.S. Supreme Court's surprise late-night injunction on immigration issues, as Tom dissects the tension between due process, executive power, and the present-day political landscape. Interwoven are reflections on good governance, the rise of the “dumb voter” problem, and the essential role of free speech in a society hungry for truth and self-determination.

Matt Ehret and Ghost deliver a sweeping, cerebral episode of Breaking History that traverses the terrain of ancient philosophy, spiritual warfare, and modern geopolitics, all through the lens of history's repeating patterns. Beginning with a candid discussion about grassroots sovereignty and the spiritual energy behind the Great American Restoration Tour, the hosts explore how authentic citizen movements are essential to reclaiming a corrupted nation, just as they were in ancient Greece and early America. From Confucius and Socrates to George Washington and Donald Trump, they highlight the timeless battle between oligarchic control and moral leadership, digging deep into suppressed classical wisdom that still shapes today's struggles. The conversation dives into the roots of empire, from Merovingian myths and Gnostic elitism to the modern priesthood of global governance and the soft tyranny of unthinking "unity." Matt then pivots to break major news from his recent travels in Thailand, revealing how the long-dormant Kra Canal project is being revived as a keystone of China's Belt and Road Initiative, and why Western sabotage can't stop its momentum. The duo connects the dots between global infrastructure, tariffs, and the unraveling legacy of Milton Friedman's "free market" dogma, exposing how America's decline was engineered through cheap goods, offshoring, and debt enslavement. This episode is a masterclass in historical pattern recognition, economic sovereignty, and the sacred responsibility of self-governance. It's not just a conversation...it's a call to reawaken the philosopher king within.

Ghost returns for a jam-packed episode from the countryside, bringing sharp analysis and salty humor to a turbulent week in geopolitics. He breaks down Trump's dramatic new tariff strategy, dubbed “Liberation Day”, and its ripple effects across China, Israel, the EU, and beyond. Ghost digs into Syria's unraveling, speculates on Jelani's role as a puppet for Western and Israeli interests, and questions the role of Turkey in the scramble for Damascus. From Biden's fading Ukraine strategy to rare African oil discoveries, this episode pulls no punches. Come for the global chaos...stay for the rants, historical deep dives, and thoughtful commentary.

Jon Herold welcomes the brilliant Dr. Carol Swain for a powerful conversation that hits straight at the heart of America's most pressing issues. From Trump's new executive orders on election integrity and education reform to dismantling the Department of Education, Dr. Swain brings sharp insight and firsthand experience as a former member of the 1776 Commission. She explains the spiritual and cultural stakes of our political battles and why a national revival might be the only path forward. After Dr. Swain's segment, Jon dives deep into Trump's sweeping executive orders, from cracking down on federal unions and reviving American history to restoring sanity at the Smithsonian and cleaning up D.C. He unpacks the potential of a temporary administration in Ukraine, a halt to U.S. contributions to the World Trade Organization, and the ripple effects of BlackRock's halted Panama Canal deal. Plus: fluoride bans, Signal chat fallout, Boasberg's ruling, the Supreme Court showdown, and liberal meltdowns of the week. Packed with sharp analysis and a touch of righteous sarcasm, this episode delivers the big picture.

Beneath the sands of the Giza Plateau lies a history far more electrifying than the mainstream narrative dares to admit. In this explosive episode, renowned researcher Brad Olsen joins Michael Jaco to reveal groundbreaking discoveries that could rewrite everything we know about ancient Egypt.

Sergey Radchenko's book, To Run the World: The Kremlin's Bid for Global Power, is a masterwork! In my mind, it's in pole position for best book of 2025. Sergey takes you into the mind of Soviet and Chinese leaders as they wrestle for global power and recognition, leaving you amused, inspired, and horrified by the small-mindedness of the people who had the power to start World War III. We get amazing vignettes like Liu Shaoqi making fun of the Americans for eating ice cream in trenches, Khrushchev pinning red stars on Eisenhower's grandkids, and Brezhnev and Andropov offering to dig up dirt on senators to help save Nixon from Watergate. Sergey earns your trust in this book, acknowledging what we can and can't know. He leaves you with a new lens to understand the Cold War and the new US-China rivalry — namely, the overwhelming preoccupation with global prestige by Cold War leaders. In this interview, we discuss… Why legitimacy matters in international politics, Stalin's colonial ambitions and Truman's strategy of containment, Sino-Soviet relations during the Stalin era and beyond, The history of nuclear blackmail, starting with the 1956 Suez crisis, Why Khrushchev couldn't save the Soviet economy.
