#realconversations #Germany #WorldWarII #communism #powCONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIESMeet BERND HABER; “I call myself a bit of a World War IIstudent. That encompasses having watched Casablanca (1942) 157 times. And othermovies. Books. Documentaries. Interviews. Yet, I never encountered a storyquite like Bernd Haber's book, ‘Fritz Haber-The Complete Diary; 16 months in anAmerican POW Camp. Fritz Haber was Bernd's grandfather. In 1931 in Germany, hewas a devout communist and tried to warn about Hitler's new Germany. Nazisdidn't like communists. Eventually, Fritz was conscripted into the Germanmilitary, known as the Wehrmacht. And was captured near the end of the war andspent 16 months in an American POW camp, able to write a diary. Bernd saw thatdiary. He also immigrated to America from East Berlin just after reunification.Bernd is passionate, eloquent, and brilliant. This radiates in this interview.I'm mesmerized by this story and by Bernd. Obvious reasons. Bernd lives inPhoenix, obtained his Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering in Germany, andworks at Worldstrings Promotion, a music agency. This is a rare and specialinterview.” Calvinhttps://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEs550 Interviews/Videos 9200 SUBSCRIBERSGLOBAL Reach. Earth Life. Amazing People. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT**BERND HABER; Author, ‘Fritz Haber; The Complete Diary: 16Months in an American POW Camp' (German Grandfather captured near the end ofWWII); LIVE fr PhoenixA story about how “human destinies can get easily mixed up,”reminding us to pay attention to forces that might interfere with our lives inunexpected ways.YouTube: https://youtu.be/kAWPHuVG2rEBIO: Bernd, grandson of Fritz, was born in East Berlin afterthe Berlin Wall was erected. He grew up in the German Democratic Republic undera Communist ruling government. Bernd attended the Technische Universität inChemnitz, Saxony, Germany, and graduated with a Master's Degree in MechanicalEngineering, with a focus on Manufacturing Process Design and Computer-AidedManufacturing. Very early in his life, he began to show an interest in Germanhistory, music, and modern information technology. When the Berlin Wall,separating East and West Berlin, fell on November 9, 1989, his world radicallychanged - an event that allowed him to embark on a personal journey, eventuallyleading him to move to Phoenix, Arizona, where he lives today.Bernd's move to the United States connects him with Fritzwho served many months in an American POW camp in 1945-1946 after WWII ended.The - what could be called: The Häber Family Trilogy - link between him and hisgrandfather is Bernd's father Herbert Häber who had climbed up in the hierarchyof the East German Communist Party, the SED, and later became a member of thePolitburo in 1984, the political body composed of the highest officials of theparty, state, and security organs. In 1985, Herbert was expelled from thePolitburo due to a staged high-level plot against him. After Germanreunification in 1990, Herbert was indicted and prosecuted for being allegedlyresponsible, as a Politburo member, for some of the killings at the BerlinWall. He faced two related criminal trials at the District Court of Berlinbetween 1995 and 2004.Bernd is the author of several books, such as "LettersTo and From My Senators FLAKE and MCCAIN: How they might have failed to fulfilltheir constitutional obligation", "Tempest - 20th Anniversary",and "The Wondrous Story of Hugo and Matilda". Bernd co-led theSpanish Civil War history project together with Björn Krondorfer - Director,Martin-Springer Institute at the Northern Arizona University called"Stories from the Spanish Civil War" which includes Bernd's greatuncle (and brother-in-law of Fritz) and other International Brigades volunteersfrom the United States, the UK and Canada.

#WeirdDarknessRadio WEEK OF JUNE 22, 2025 = At the isolated crossing of Rideau Ferry in the 1800s, travelers who arrived after dark at Mr. Oliver's house were promised safe passage come morning — but many were never seen alive again, and when his buildings were finally torn down decades later, the horrifying truth of what happened to those missing souls was supposedly revealed beneath the floorboards.==========HOUR ONE: A 178-year-old mystery comes to the surface in a Philadelphia suburb. (Grandfather's Ghost Story Leads to Mass Grave) *** Recently a wrecking crew began tearing down and old building in Rhode Island. But the big burly men on the crew got so frightened they refused to continue the work. Does reconstruction of a home or building anger the souls who once lived there? (Does Remodeling Your Home Disturb The Spirits Who Died There?) *** The way life has grown on our planet requires that all living things feed off each other and must kill others in order to survive. That's the way of the world if you want to live for any more than a few days. But some people are now claiming they can live without food at all… indefinitely. (Life Without Food) *** Three men were in a shed selling gardening supplies when some strange powder suddenly hit the ceiling. Before they had time to react, a small jug on a shelf abruptly flew across the room. One man picked up the jug and placed it a covered box. Instantly, the jug was...somehow...back on the floor. And that was just the beginning of the strange haunting of a community's garden shed. (The Poltergeist In The Allotment Shed) *** In the movie Salt, Angelina Jolie plays a double-agent who is mind-controlled by scary remnants of the USSR secret service. And in real life, the 1940s bombshell Candy Jones was apparently brainwashed with drugs and used as a CIA covert operative. (The Supermodel Who Was Brainwashed Into Becoming a Spy) *** No one knows exactly when she was born. Some think, maybe, she was a gypsy. Others say she was the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter. The life of Elizabeth Barnes is a mysterious one, filled with many loves, losses, and prognostications. (The Witch of Plum Hollow) *** Some travelers, arriving late at night to board Oliver's Ferry the next day, stayed at Oliver's house. But they were never seen making the ferry crossing the next morning. Is it possible that the rumors are true – that they never left the house alive? (The Frights of Oliver's Ferry)==========HOUR TWO: An eerie tombstone stands watch over one of Portland Oregon's oldest cemeteries. And the story behind that tombstone is a strange one. (The Guardians of Lone Fir Cemetery) *** Don't take a gift from Little Gracie's grave... or her life-like statue might cry tears of blood. (The Ghost of Gracie Watson) *** When it came to her daughter's Elsa doll, one mom was eager and ready to “Let It Go”. But the doll supernaturally refused to be let go! (Haunted Elsa Doll) *** An ancient stone cross is said by locals to be cursed, and the curse infects anyone who dares to disrespect it. (Curse of the Saxon Stone Cross) *** Christopher Slaughterford was seemingly a completely ordinary young Englishman – but he has earned an unenviable place in the legal books. (T he Trials of Christopher Slaughterford) *** Two authors reported a very strange encounter with a mysterious entity they believed was not of this world. What did they see and why were they under the impression this being was not of this world? (An Author's Encounter With A Not-Of-This-World Entity)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: For Allen Taylor, January 15, 1919 was just another day on his farm near Prescott, Iowa. That is, until his 15-year-old neighbor Irene Hoskins came stumbling down the lane with a gash in the side of her head. (The Hoskins Family Murders) *** How did someone get the job of an executioner in medieval times? We'll find out! (To Become An Executioner) ==========SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM TONIGHT'S SHOW:“Schoolhouse Demon Attack” from Paranormality Magazine“Grandfather's Ghost Story Leads to Mass Grave” by Meghan Rafferty for CNN: https://tinyurl.com/ravfceh“Does Remodeling Your Home Disturb The Spirits Who Died There?” by Kelly Roncace for NJ.com: https://tinyurl.com/sn7vpsg“Life Without Food” by Michael Grosso for Consciousness Abound: https://tinyurl.com/r38yxh6“The Poltergeist In The Allotment Shed” from Strange Company: https://tinyurl.com/vzlgcj9“The Supermodel Who Was Brainwashed Into Becoming a Spy” by Annalee Newitz for Gizmodo: https://tinyurl.com/sgh73da“The Witch of Plum Hollow” by James Morgan for North Country Public Radio: https://tinyurl.com/u3x3sxu“The Frights of Oliver's Ferry” by Ken Watson for Rideau-Info: https://tinyurl.com/vj96awj==========(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Interview by Kris PetersMusic runs in the blood. Sure, people can learn to play or learn to sing, but those fortunate to be born into a musical family generally have a head start on most.Melbourne artist Karly Jewell comes from the latter. Inspired by her late Grandfather - an acclaimed country singer-songwriter known for his work with Slim Dusty - Jewell was first bitten by the bug around 5 years old and has been working towards the elusive goal that is becoming a professional musician ever since.But the real part of her journey began in 2018 after teaming with fellow Aussie Mark Dalbeth at management company Rav Medic and releasing her debut album Phoenix the following year. From there, Jewell's commanding stage presence and rock n roll persona have seen her voice traverse the globe and find its way to XMusic, who signed Jewell to the emerging label in 2014. From there, she immediately set about releasing the singles, Sad Girl, In The Dark, Burn and Other Side, all of which feature on Jewell's new album, There's A Jewell In Town, which was released today.HEAVY sat down with Jewell to catch up on the new music and other things happening in the world of Karly Jewell."This is so exciting to have this album out now," she smiled. "I've been hanging on to these songs for a little while, almost two years. It sounds like a long time to do an album, but it actually only took about 14 days to actually record this whole album (laughs). Now it's finally out. Obviously, we released a few singles, but to share the whole album is just unreal."Despite the growing recognition and expansion of her musical empire, Jewell still manages to exude an almost innocent, yet defiant nature."Staying true and just being me," she shrugs when we ask what it is about her music that is resonating on a larger scale. "Not trying to be like other people and not trying to write songs to please people. I'm just writing for myself. And a lot of this stuff has that kind of country rock feel. When I say country rock, I mean when you go to places like Nashville, you're hearing these like big songs, like country songs, but they sound rock."In the full interview, Karly described the album as a fusion of pop, rock, and electronic genres, reflecting her artistic range and emotional depth. She shared her unique songwriting process, often finding inspiration in her bathroom due to its acoustics, and highlighted the significance of the title track There's A Jewell in Town, which tells a personal story. She dedicated the album to her late grandfather, emphasizing its emotional importance.We spoke about her recent tour of Japan and future touring opportunities, this weekend's double album launch party, her musical motivation and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues John Fisher, Theatre Rhinoceros Photo credit: Scott Sidorsky John Fisher, Artistic Director of Theatre Rhino, and writer/performer/co-director of “The Doodler,” now at The Marsh in San Francisco through July 6, 2025, in conversation with Richard Wolinsky. Theatre Rhino is the longest running LGBTQ+ theatre company in America, and John Fisher has been its Artistic Director since 2002. His show, “The Doodler” concerns a serial killer off gay men in the mid-1970s in San Francisco and is based on an actual case in which a young man would approach gay men in a bar with a drawing, a doodle, he'd made of them, and then invite them to a secluded location. Between six and thirteen men were killed. It's a true-crime story that also involves police indifference and homophobia. In this interview, John Fisher discusses how he came to work on the piece, the history behind it, and Rhino's upcoming show, “The Laramie Project.” Edmund White (1940-2025) Photo: David Shankbone Edmund White (1940-2025) in conversation with Richard Wolinsky, recorded in the KPFA Studio while he was on tour for his memoir, “My Lives: An Autobiography,” on May 4, 2006. Edmund White, who died on June 3, 2025 at the age of 85, was often called the Grandfather of gay literature. Equally at home writing novels, biographies, plays, memoirs, essays and various hybrids, he was a pioneer in the LBGT world, one of the first gay novelists to achieve literary fame, the co[author in 1977 of The Joy of Gay Sex, along with a ground breaking trilogy of novels based on his own life, several memoirs, three well received biographies, and various collections of essays. Winner of the Lambda Literary Award and nominated several times, nominated for the Pulitzer and winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for his biography of Jean Genet, winner of the National Book Foundation Lifetime Achievement Award and the PEN/Saul Bellow Award, Edmund White has also been called the Patron Saint of Gay Literature.

Victor Hugo (1802 - 1885)L'Art d'être grand-père est un recueil de poèmes que Victor Hugo a publié en 1877. Suite à la mort de Charles Hugo, un de ses fils, et de sa femme, Victor Hugo prend en charge ses deux petits enfants Georges et Jeanne Hugo. Il écrit plusieurs poèmes illustrant les comportements et l'innocence reliée à ses petits-enfants qu'il élève seul et avec tendresse.(Résumé de Wikipédia)L'Art d'être grand-père ("The Art of Being a Grandfather") is a series of eighteen poems by Victor Hugo, published in 1877. They were among the last he wrote.On 13 March 1871, his 44-year-old son Charles died of a stroke, while riding in a carriage to a farewell dinner for some of Victor's friends at a restaurant in Bordeaux. Charles's wife died shortly afterwards, and Victor Hugo became the guardian of their children, Georges and Jeanne Hugo. The poems describe the feelings of a grandfather entrusted with innocent young children. Love and tenderness are celebrated, and the complexities, politics, and grand themes of his other poems are set aside.

Sergio Perera is a chef & nutrition expert. Having trained as a professional chef in some of Spain's most respected restaurants and then training in Japan, a serendipitous moment saw Sergio become the go to private chef to Hollywood actors (such as Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Jr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Chris Hemsworth), athletes, royalty and politicians. Growing up in Spain he was naturally an advocate for the healthy Mediterranean diet, but it was working with actors which prompted him to study and learn more about nutrition and during his time with Chris Hemsworth he helped prepare him for the role Thor, optimising his nutrition to support his exercise and muscle building regime. He was an integral part of the successful training app known as CENTR by Chris Hemsworth, writing recipes, diet programs and meditations, offering subscribers a holistic wellness approach. Sergio has an international upbringing, born in Spain to a Mexican/American and Spanish Parents and growing up on a US Airforce base, has given Sergio a unique perspective on food and culture. Sergio's love for food and cooking began in his Grandfather's kitchen where he learnt the traditional cuisine of the Aragon region. At the age of 18, he set off to expand his repertoire of Spanish cuisine by training at some of the world's most prestigious restaurants such as ARZAK, Mugaritz and with Albert Adria at the iconic el Bulli restaurant in Roses, Spain. His curiosity and passion for culture eventually lead him to Kyoto, Japan where he was introduced to Kaiseki which is an exquisite form of dining that moves elegantly and poetically with the seasons. Sergio has used his culinary and artistic experience to create beautiful and inspirational images for food books, magazines and film productions. He is currently the brand ambassador for Winning Appliances, working alongside John Winning's team on numerous culinary and creative projects. The most recent has been the opening of ORA Japanese dining and bar in Sydney's Waterloo. Always eager to embrace new opportunities, Sergio welcomes the chance to work with clients—whether they are actors preparing for a film, high-profile individuals seeking an exclusive private dinner, or those planning a special event. He has also trained numerous chefs in becoming the ultimate private chef/nutritionist for high profile families and individuals and has been creating a small team of elite chefs throughout Australia.

The Voice Of GO(r)D podcast is very happy to bring you the self proclaimed ‘King of Content', the Doer of The Work™️, lawyer, historian, marketing guru, prolific writer, and former co-host of the What's Left? podcast, Mr Oliver Bateman. Oliver encouraged me to start this Substack and is one of many who told me I should start a podcast - he has always been very encouraging of this project, and has served as a great inspiration and adviser to me over the years, and I am very happy to get him on the show and get him to you. We centered our conversation on our fathers, as Oliver's Dad looms large in his work, both as a man of size and as a philosophical driving force behind Oliver's work. We end up meandering around a number of different stories, including those of our Grandfathers services - mine driving a Sherman tank in Europe and then trucks across Canada, and Oliver's being a submariner in the US Navy during World War 2, with these family histories ultimately animating everything we do and discuss here on the show.

Started the week with the latest updates in the Iran-Israel war, and then talked about the terrible plane crash in India with a lone survivor. Plus, S. Korea warms towards N. Korea, Austria school shooting, Los Angeles immigration riots, Sierra Leone monkeypox outbreak, and a guy in New Zealand swept up in a child porn case videoed himself committing incest with his 80 year old grandfather.

As a child, Susanne Wilson saw spirits and felt isolated by her gifts - until her Grandfather explained that he too had always seen spirits. He guided her to own her power and believe in herself. As an 8 path soul, Susanne built a successful career in the corporate world until a Near Death Experience brought her to heaven to visit her Grandfather. She realized then that her "true work had not started yet." After studying mediumship at the acclaimed Arthur Findlay school in England she is today a highly acclaimed evidential medium and widely respected intuition teacher. Her best selling book is: Soul Smart: What the Dead Teach Us About Spirit Communication. She's known as the Carefree Medium and lives in Carefree, Arizona.

Have you ever felt a connection to someone you've never met? In this haunting episode, a storyteller recalls growing up feeling inexplicably close to their late grandfather—someone they never had the chance to meet in life. At first, the experiences were subtle—comforting feelings, an occasional shadow in their peripheral vision, a presence they felt watching over them. But as they got older, those feelings shifted from comforting to unnerving. The shadows became clearer, more pronounced, and soon the presence wasn't just watching, it was interacting. Can a family member's spirit become much darker, or is another entity masquerading as a loved one?

When consumers can get AI-generated designs completely customized to their needs, what does this mean for the future of brands and the customer experience? I have two guests on my show today: one is the founder of one of the world's most iconic shoe brands, and the other is the co-creator of the first AI-designed commercial shoe. Today we're going to talk about what it takes to innovate and grow a brand and how things are both similar—and different since Reebok launched its brand in 1960, and now Syntilay brings a whole new era of AI-based design to the market. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Joe Foster, the founder of Reebok and Ben Weiss, the CEO of Syntilay. About Joe FosterJoe founded Reebok in 1958 with his late brother Jeff, following their family heritage back to 1895. Joe's Grandfather, also Joseph W Foster, pioneered the spiked running shoe and famously made shoes for the Worlds best athletes of the early 20th century, with World records and Olympics Gold Medals.Wearing (pumps) made by J W Foster & Sons Ltd, Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell won Olympic Gold Medals in the 1928 Paris Olympics and were immortalised in the film ‘Chariots of Fire'.With Reebok they followed in his footsteps, with Olympic, Commonwealth and European medals and World record breaking performances, represented now by the range of Reebok Classics. About Ben WeissBen is building the future of sneakers, shoes designed with Artificial Intelligence that are entirely 3D printed, accompanied by an excellent team and set of advisors including the legendary Reebok Founder, Joe Foster, original Shark Tank Shark, Kevin Harrington, and others. He hosts the business podcast, LegendsNLeaders, which breaks down the steps it truly takes to become successful and have a positive impact in the world. The podcast has featured outstanding guests like Kevin O'Leary, Shark Tank Shark, Howie Mandel, Steve Madden, Miss Universe, R'Bonney Nola, and has been viewed in the millions.

Launch Your Box Podcast with Sarah Williams | Start, Launch, and Grow Your Subscription Box
“It takes money to grow.” - Sarah Williams Is it time to raise your prices? After all, costs are up on absolutely everything. Your costs are up - on products, packaging, shipping, and more. Your costs going up means your profit margins are going down. If you don't raise your prices, you'll keep chipping away at your profit margin - and your business won't be sustainable long term. It takes money to grow your business. A lower profit margin means less money to invest back into your business which means less growth. I recently had to do something about increased shipping costs in my business. My “free” shipping was costing me more and more of my profit on every order. I had to make a change. I went from free shipping on everything to a flat rate of $6.99 or free shipping on orders over $100. I worried about what would happen. Would my customers not buy without free shipping? Would my revenues go down? No. Instead: My average order value increased by 38% - from $48 to $65. Last month saw a 74% increase in sales year over year. Not only are my customers still buying, they're buying MORE to meet the free shipping threshold. When you decide it's the right time to increase the price of your subscription, you have two options: Raise the price across the board for everyone. Understand and accept that you may have some attrition - but fewer subscribers at a higher price will make you more profitable in the long run. Run a full marketing campaign notifying subscribers the price is going up and when the increase is effective. Be transparent about the reasons for the increase. Your subscribers know the price of everything is going up. Make it clear that you want to be around to continue giving them great products in their subscription boxes. Grandfather in your existing subscribers at their current price and increase for any new subscriber. This makes for a GREAT launch campaign. “Get in now before prices go up.” Older subscribers at the lower rate will go away over time. You have to raise your prices as your costs rise. You can not sustain your business long term without raising your prices. Join me for this episode as we talk about profit margins, what the increased cost of absolutely everything means for your business, and the right way to increase the price of your subscription box. What's the profit margin on your subscription box? Text “budget” to 940-204-0023 and I'll send you my box budget calculator.

A really fun story that sees Homer and Abe buy an Irish pub and ignore the no-smoking laws.We also discuss Colin Farrell, the 1970s comic series GASM, the use of the word "bog" and more.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1 per month at patreon.com/fourfingerdiscountListen on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fDcSY0Listen on Apple Podcasts - apple.co/4dgpW3ZCHAPTERS:3:30 - Dando's kittens keep stepping in poop5:50 - Is the best Simpsons "go to" episode since Bart vs Australia?9:20 - Nicola likes the Irish accent16:00 - They didn't use the Irish "drunk" stereotype24:20 - FAVOURITE MOMENTS31:40 - TRIVIA32:30 - The use of the word "bog"39:54 - STONECUTTER SHOUTOUTS41:26 - EPISODE RUN THROUGH45:00 - orgasm46:00 - Guy's journey with the GASM comics54:00 - Disposing of hard rubbish is the best58:00 - Murder Incorporated01:02:00 - Cooking homemade vegetable soup with Nan01:16:14 - Colin Farrell01:20:18 - 90s sports logos are iconic01:34:15 - What Did You Learn?01:34:40 - New NamesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/four-finger-discount-simpsons-podcast--5828977/support.
I want to express gratitude and appreciation to all of the listeners of the podcast and readers of this Substack who have stuck with me thus far, and those of you who have tolerated my gravely and monotonous voice for 100 episodes. Without you here, I have no reason to do this, and I thank you for your time and attention.For episode 100 I bring you the man who brought me into this world (well, I guess my mom would deserve some credit, too, but she ain't here anymore) and helped make me who I am, My Dad.There would be none of this without him, and none of the commentary and writing on the trucking industry without the family legacy, which involves Dad, Uncle Chris, my late Uncle Bruce, and my late Grandfather, Sergeant James E Magill. Dad and I discuss much of the family history and more in this extended conversation, which I hope you enjoy as much as I have enjoyed producing all of these shows and writing for you.You can follow Leonard on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/leonard.magill/To see a bunch of photos of Dad and the family legacy, head over to https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/voice-of-gord-episode-100-featuringThanks for listening, and as always - Questions, Comments, Suggestions, Corrections and Hate Mail are welcomed and strongly encouraged - gordilocks@protonmail.comAs mentioned, I'm writing a book on the fate of the American Trucker in 2025, for more info on that - https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/book-project-announcement-and-a-major
A Voice for Lenhart: Barb Allisimi on Legacy, Loss, and a 90-Year Calling Episode Description: What if your life's purpose was rooted in a story that happened decades before you were born? In this profoundly moving episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier sits down with Negaunee native Barb Allisimi to trace the threads of one family's legacy—woven through heartbreak, strength, and spiritual connection. Barb shares how the tragic loss of her grandfather, Lenhart, in a 1927 Lake Superior drowning shaped generations of silence and sorrow—and how she spent her life uncovering the truth. From Finnish and Italian immigration to newspaper archives, handwritten letters, and a 90-year remembrance event that brought families together from around the globe, Barb's story reminds us that healing often starts with curiosity—and courage.

Now these were grandparents in their over the late 20s, but life at the time has been described as, you know, brutish and short. People just didn't live very long. And all of a sudden, there was the grandparents gradually appearing on the scene. And they were able to teach, for example, you know, how do you plant seeds? So to have the better chance of a successful crop. As one example, I'm sure there was all kinds of things like hunting and so forth. And they were the first ones who were being there for their grandkids and instilling the wisdom required to help lead a successful life. So that was the genesis of this. And this is all that was from an article in Scientific ...
On the morning of August 26, 1986, a cyclist in New York's Central Park discovered the body eighteen-year-old Jennifer Levin. Among other things, Levin had been strangled, there were superficial injuries on her face, and her shirt was pulled up. Later, the medical examiner reported that Jennifer had died only about an hour before she was discovered.It didn't take long for investigators to find Levin's assailant, after several patrons at a nearby bar reported seeing her with a man the night before. That man turned out to be nineteen-year-old Robert Chambers Jr., a privileged members of New York's Upper East Side high society. At first, Chambers denied having anything to do with the murder, but soon changed his story and claimed Levin had died during consensual “rough sex” initiated by Levin herself.Nicknamed the “The Preppy Killer” by the press, a reference to his good looks and obvious privilege, Chambers' trial became a media circus. Over the course of more than a year, people around the country watched as the defense tried—and with the help of the press, succeeded—to put the responsibility for Levin's murder on the victim, emphasizing her sexual history and manner of dress, among other things.

Today, we delve into two applicable words from the English language to describe Con Inc. and its arguments for the mix of policies we are seeing from the Trump administration: sophistry and demagoguery. It is taking broad principles we all support in their proper spheres and misapplying them to the extreme to play on people's emotions. Also, to the extent a trade deficit is a problem, it's only because of the fiscal deficit. The problem is Trump is now supporting a horrible Senate reconciliation bill to make matters worse. If only he cared about the fiscal deficit as much as the trade deficit, we would achieve his stated goals without spending as much political capital. Learn more about your ad choices.
