“The Americans, and then Europe following like sheep behind, unpicked everything that was meant to keep people safe.”Veteran journalist and author Victoria Brittain speaks to Palestine Deep Dive's Jehan Alfarra about the long shadow of Guantánamo Bay and the so-called “War on Terror”, and what its legacy reveals about Gaza today.Brittain has spent decades reporting from Vietnam, Africa, the Middle East and Palestine. Her book Shadow Lives: The Forgotten Women of the War on Terror explored the lives of women and families left behind when men were imprisoned without charge, often in systems built around secrecy, exceptional law and indefinite detention.The conversation explores what Guantánamo represented, how extraordinary measures can gradually become normalised, and the striking and frightening parallels with the treatment of Palestinians today.

This Day in Legal History: The Capture of John AndréOn September 23, 1780, three American militiamen stopped a man riding toward British lines near Tarrytown, New York. Hidden in his boot were documents and maps of the fortifications at West Point. The man was Major John André, adjutant general of the British Army—and the papers exposed one of the most infamous plots in American history: General Benedict Arnold's secret agreement to surrender West Point to the British in exchange for money and a British command. Arnold escaped to the enemy; his name became a synonym for traitor. André was not so lucky.The legal aftermath is what makes this a landmark. André was tried not in a civilian court but before a board of fourteen American general officers—a military tribunal—which found him to be a spy and condemned him to death. He was hanged on October 2, 1780. And here's the part worth pausing on: André conducted himself with such dignity, and the proceedings raised such difficult questions, that his case became an enduring reference point in the law of war and the treatment of spies. Even George Washington, who approved the execution, wrestled with it. The core issues—what process is owed to someone the government has seized on national-security grounds, when a military tribunal may substitute for an ordinary court, and how a nation balances self-preservation against the procedural fairness it claims to stand for—are not relics. They run from André, through the Civil War case of Ex parte Milligan, through the World War II saboteur case of Ex parte Quirin, all the way to the post-9/11 Guantanamo litigation.The significance of September 23, 1780 is that it poses, at the very founding of the country, the permanent question of how a nation treats those it deems dangerous to its security—and how much process it owes them even so. That question is not historical trivia today. It is, almost exactly, the question in our lead story.The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to allow the detention of a pro-Palestinian scholar—a case that squarely tests whether federal immigration law can override a noncitizen's due-process and free-speech claims. The scholar is Badar Khan Suri, an Indian citizen and postdoctoral fellow at Georgetown who was arrested by immigration authorities in March 2025, part of the administration's broader campaign to detain and deport foreign nationals who engaged in pro-Palestinian activism on U.S. campuses. A lower-court judge ordered Suri released after he argued his detention violated his First Amendment free-speech rights and his Fifth Amendment right to due process. Now the Justice Department is asking the Supreme Court to consider whether federal immigration law actually stripped that judge of the authority to order him released in the first place. And that framing is the whole ballgame. The government's argument is jurisdictional: it contends that provisions of the immigration laws channel these disputes away from the federal district courts and their habeas power, so the judge had no business ordering release. The defense is constitutional: that no statute can wall off the courts from hearing claims that the government is imprisoning someone to punish protected speech. This is the same fight playing out in the parallel case of Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia activist, where a different appeals court came out the other way—setting up exactly the kind of circuit split that draws the Supreme Court in. The significance could hardly be higher. This asks whether the government can detain noncitizens based on their political speech, and whether the courthouse doors can be closed to their constitutional claims. It's the modern descendant of the André question—how much process the government owes those it deems a threat—and the Supreme Court is now being asked to answer it.Trump administration asks US Supreme Court to allow detention of pro-Palestinian scholar | Reuters · Al Jazeera · US NewsNow a sobering story about accountability within the judiciary itself: a federal judge in Michigan will take a one-year leave from the bench to continue treatment after a drunk-driving conviction. U.S. District Judge Thomas Ludington, who is 72, was arrested in October 2025 in Emmet County, in northern Michigan, with a blood-alcohol content the prosecutor put at 0.270—more than three times the legal limit, a level that falls under Michigan's “super drunk” enhanced-penalty statute. He pleaded no contest in April to misdemeanor operating while intoxicated, was sentenced in May to six months of probation and over $1,000 in fines and costs, and is now stepping back from his caseload for a year to undergo treatment, counseling, and testing. Let me talk about why this matters legally, because it's not about the criminal case, which is resolved—it's about judicial accountability. Federal judges have life tenure under Article III; they can only be removed by impeachment, which is a deliberate constitutional design to protect judicial independence. That means when a federal judge has a personal crisis like this, there's no boss to suspend them—the system relies heavily on self-regulation and on the judicial-conduct machinery, where a judge's colleagues, through the circuit's judicial council, can investigate and impose measures short of removal. Ludington's decision to take a voluntary leave and pursue treatment is that self-regulation working roughly as intended: an acknowledgment that a judge who decides other people's cases, including drunk-driving and addiction cases, has to hold himself to the standard he applies to others. And there's a compassionate dimension here too, one that connects to a story we covered recently about the legal profession's mental-health and substance-use crisis—that a 0.270 BAC is not “having a few too many,” it's a sign of a serious disease that the profession is finally learning to treat as illness rather than mere misconduct. The significance is a small but real illustration of how accountability functions for the most independent actors in our legal system, and a reminder that the bench is not immune to the profession's struggles.Michigan federal judge to remain on leave, undergo treatment after drunk-driving arrest | Reuters · The Detroit News · UpNorthLiveAnd finally, DoorDash has reached a $131.5 million settlement with New York City over how it paid—or underpaid—its delivery workers. The city found that DoorDash either underpaid workers or took too long to pay them, and the settlement breaks down in a revealing way. Nearly $115 million goes as relief to about 264,000 workers—including roughly $83 million to resolve a fight over how to calculate pay for workers who were logged into the app and on-call but not actively making a delivery, plus $12.3 million for payments that were missed or arrived days or weeks late—and there's a $16.7 million fine on top. The legal backdrop is the gig-economy pay wars, and New York City has been the most aggressive jurisdiction in the country here. The city enacted a first-in-the-nation minimum-pay standard for app delivery workers, and this settlement enforces the promise behind it—that the time a worker spends available and waiting for orders is compensable, not free labor the platform gets to ignore. That “on-call time counts” principle echoes classic wage-and-hour law, the same kind of question courts have long wrestled with under the Fair Labor Standards Act about when waiting time is working time. There's also a striking allegation in the background: the city accused DoorDash and Uber Eats of engineering “design tricks” to deprive workers of more than $550 million in tips—a reminder that in the gig economy, the design of the app itself can be the mechanism of wage theft. Now, one honest caveat for workers: DoorDash's median payout works out to about $48 per worker, so while the headline number is large, the individual relief is modest. The significance is that this is a major enforcement win for a city that has led the nation in regulating gig work, and further confirmation that “flexibility” and app-based independence don't exempt companies from the basic legal obligation to pay people for their time.DoorDash reaches $131.5 million settlement with NYC over delivery workers' pay | Reuters · NBC News · Bloomberg This is a public episode.

Twenty-five years after September 11, Hesher and Ruckus revisit the event that changed America's relationship with war, government, surveillance and information.From AE911Truth and Dr. Judy Wood to the Patriot Act, Homeland Security, Guantanamo, Iraq and mass surveillance, the discussion explores how researching 9/11 became an education in propaganda, gatekeeping, evidence and competing narratives.Those lessons eventually extended far beyond 9/11—into geopolitics, mass-shooting coverage, COVID, culture wars, censorship and the increasingly algorithmic information environment.This isn't about claiming to have finally solved September 11. It's about asking what 25 years of information warfare have taught us about authority, certainty and the manufacture of reality.Website: https://alternatecurrentradio.comSupport: https://alternatecurrentradio.com/support/Merch: https://alternate-current-radio.creator-spring.com/

Es ist ein Vierteljahrhundert her, und doch sehen viele von uns die Bilder noch vor sich. Am 11. September 2001 erschütterte der schwerste Terroranschlag der Geschichte die Vereinigten Staaten und leitete eine neue geopolitische Ära ein. Fast 3.000 Menschen verloren an diesem Tag im World Trade Center, im Pentagon und beim Absturz von Flug 93 in Pennsylvania ihr Leben. Der Einsturz der Zwillingstürme in Manhattan markierte nicht nur eine menschliche Tragödie unvorstellbaren Ausmaßes, sondern auch eine fundamentale Zäsur für die globale Gemeinschaft. Die Folgen von „9/11“ prägen unseren Alltag bis heute - von drastisch verschärften Sicherheitsvorkehrungen an internationalen Flughäfen über die Neuausrichtung der globalen Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik bis hin zu langjährigen militärischen Konflikten im Nahen Osten und einem Generalverdacht, den sich muslimische Menschen zunehmend ausgesetzt sehen. Dazu spricht Moderator Ulrich Sonnenschein mit Markus Albrecht, Ersthelfer am Ground Zero, dem ehemaligen ARD-Korrespondenten in New York, Thomas Nehls, dem ARD-Terrorismusexperten Michael Götschenberg und mit Bernhard Docke, dem Anwalt von Murat Kurnaz, der unschuldig in Guantanamo inhaftiert wurde. Podcast-Tipp: Dark Matters In der Sonderstaffel „Staatsgeheimnis 9/11“ folgt WDR-Journalist Nikolaus Steiner der Spur eines Mannes, der nach den Anschlägen im Zentrum internationaler Ermittlungen steht: der saudische Staatsbürger Omar Al-Bayoumi.

We're coming up on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, and it had us thinking about an episode we produced in 2014. It's the story of one sentence, written in the hours after September 11th, 2001, that has led to the longest war in U.S. history. We examine how just 60 words of legal language have blurred the line between war and peace. In the hours after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, a lawyer sat down in front of a computer and started writing a legal justification for taking action against those responsible. The language that he drafted and that President George W. Bush signed into law—called the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF)—has at its heart one single sentence, 60 words long. Over the last decade, those 60 words have become the legal foundation for the "war on terror." In this collaboration with BuzzFeed, reporter Gregory Johnsen tells us the story of how this has come to be one of the most important, confusing, troubling sentences of the last two decades. We go into the meetings that took place in the chaotic days just after 9/11, speak with Congresswoman Barbara Lee and former Congressman Ron Dellums about the vote on the AUMF. We hear from former White House and State Department lawyers John Bellinger & Harold Koh. We learn how this legal language unleashed Guantanamo, Navy Seal raids and drone strikes. And we speak with journalist Daniel Klaidman, legal expert Benjamin Wittes and Virginia Senator Tim Kaine about how these words came to be interpreted, and what they mean for the future of war and peace.

In the first episode of Immigrantly's three-part 9/11 at 25 series, Saadia Khan sits down with Shayana Kadidal, Senior Managing Attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights, who has litigated Guantánamo cases since 2002. He filed the first habeas petition on behalf of detainees when no one in Washington would carry the papers to the courthouse. He was one of the first lawyers allowed onto the base. This conversation covers what actually built Guantánamo and what has kept it standing through four presidencies: • Why the first people held at Guantánamo were not Muslims, but Black Haitian refugees intercepted at sea in 1991• How the U.S. filled the prison using leaflets and $5,000 bounties, not battlefield capture• The domestic sweeps of South Asian and Arab Muslim men, held in secret immigration hearings with their names erased from the public docket• Mohammed al-Qahtani, a schizophrenic man held roughly two decades, much of it in solitary confinement, and Abu Zubaydah, the first man waterboarded, still never charged• Guled Duran, cleared for release by six agencies, whose habeas petition has sat with a judge for a decade• Why the torture evidence argument is not the reason these cases never went to trial• And what it means that the Trump administration flew roughly 500 immigrants to Guantánamo between February and June 2025, at a reported cost of about $100,000 per person per day The machinery built in 2001 was never dismantled. Machinery that isn't dismantled gets used again on somebody else. Saadia's take: she is not here to acknowledge the anniversary. She is here to audit it. Learn more about the Center for Constitutional Rights at ccrjustice.org, or follow @ccrjustice. Next Tuesday: a woman whose father, a firefighter, went into the towers and did not come out. She was six. She has spent the years since objecting to what this country did to Muslims in her family's name.

The Wrong Question About Torture: Lessons of Guantanamo Bay

What happens when fear becomes policy—and the people labeled “the worst of the worst” are no longer treated as people? In this episode of the Truth Be Told Podcast, host Dave Thompson, CFI explores the powerful story behind the documentary Leaving Hotel California and the complicated legacy of Guantanamo Bay, post-9/11 interrogations, enhanced interrogation techniques, torture, and the human consequences of abandoning evidence-based investigative practices. Dave is joined by filmmakers Chimène de Jonge and Aybüke Demirel, former NCIS Special Agent Mark Fallon, and former Guantanamo detainee and Guantánamo Diary author Mohamedou Ould Slahi for a conversation about investigative interviewing, coercion, false information, cognitive bias, morality, forgiveness, and what happens when fear begins influencing the investigative process. Inside Leaving Hotel California Support the Documentary Here. The documentary Leaving Hotel California examines Guantanamo Bay through the experiences of the people who lived this history from dramatically different perspectives. Chimène and Aybüke explain how a journalism project driven by their interest in human rights evolved into a documentary focused not simply on what happened at Guantanamo, but on the people behind the history. Their reporting led them to former government officials, investigators, intelligence professionals, attorneys, and detainees as they attempted to understand what actually happened—and why. Mark Fallon: Fighting Torture From Inside the System Mark Fallon offers a rare perspective from inside the U.S. government's response to September 11. As a senior NCIS investigator involved in terrorism investigations after 9/11, Fallon describes watching interrogation practices evolve from legitimate investigative efforts toward coercive techniques and prisoner abuse. He discusses his attempts to challenge those practices, document what was happening, and warn government leadership about how history would ultimately judge the decisions being made. The conversation also examines SERE — Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape — training and the controversial decision to adapt techniques designed to help U.S. personnel resist abusive treatment for use in interrogations. Fallon explains the fundamental contradiction: techniques associated with increasing resistance and producing unreliable or false information were being adapted as methods for obtaining intelligence. For investigators, law enforcement professionals, HR investigators, intelligence professionals, and anyone interested in science-based investigative interviewing, the lesson extends well beyond Guantanamo: Pressure can produce compliance. That doesn't mean it produces reliable information. Mohamedou Ould Slahi: The Human Being Behind the Label Mohamedou brings the conversation from interrogation theory to lived experience. He describes his detention, interrogation, sleep deprivation, abuse, and the psychological impact of being treated not as an individual, but as part of a category of people presumed to be dangerous. But Mohamedou also challenges one of the most common debates surrounding enhanced interrogation: Why is the question whether torture works? What if the more important question is whether torture is morally acceptable in the first place? That distinction creates one of the most powerful moments of the episode and forces a broader conversation about ethics, investigative integrity, human rights, and what limits should exist even when investigators believe the stakes could not be higher. Investigative Bias, False Information & the Danger of Certainty The episode also explores how the fear and uncertainty following September 11 created conditions where confirmation bias, categorization, assumptions, and investigative tunnel vision could influence decision-making. Fallon describes investigators being tasked not only with identifying people responsible for terrorism, but also with investigating evidence that could exonerate detainees who should not have been at Guantanamo in the first place. It's a lesson that remains relevant to investigators today. When investigators become committed to a conclusion before fully developing the information, the interview can shift from an effort to discover what happened into an effort to confirm what we already believe happened. An Unexpected Friendship Perhaps the most powerful part of Leaving Hotel California isn't about interrogation at all. It's about the friendship that developed between Mark Fallon and Mohamedou Ould Slahi. Their relationship began through books, virtual conversations, and shared discussions about Guantanamo before the filmmakers ultimately captured their first meeting in person. Fallon describes what drew him to Mohamedou simply: his humanity. At the airport, Mohamedou greeted Mark with a sign inspired by the phrase displayed at Guantanamo, “Honor Bound to Defend Freedom.” Mohamedou's version carried a different message: “Bound to remain human.” That idea becomes the thread running through the entire conversation. Behind every investigation, accusation, intelligence report, interrogation, and headline is a human being. And regardless of what someone is suspected of doing, investigators still have an obligation to remain objective, ethical, curious—and human. In This Episode Dave, Mark, Mohamedou, Chimène, and Aybüke discuss: The story behind the documentary Leaving Hotel California Guantanamo Bay and the U.S. response following September 11 Mark Fallon's role investigating terrorism after 9/11 Mohamedou Ould Slahi's experience at Guantanamo Bay Enhanced interrogation techniques and torture SERE training and its adaptation for interrogation Coercion, compliance, and false or unreliable information False confessions and the psychology of interrogation Confirmation bias and investigative tunnel vision Science-based and evidence-based investigative interviewing Ethics and morality in interrogation Human rights and the rule of law The importance of documenting and challenging investigative decisions Journalism and documentary filmmaking as forms of investigation Forgiveness, empathy, moral courage and humanity The friendship between Mark Fallon and Mohamedou Ould Slahi     Ultimately, this episode asks a question that extends far beyond Guantanamo Bay: When the pressure is highest and we're most certain we're right, can we still remain curious enough to challenge our assumptions—and principled enough to remain human? About Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates The Truth Be Told Podcast is hosted by Dave Thompson, CFI, CEO of Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates (WZ). For more than four decades, Wicklander-Zulawski has trained investigators around the world in investigative interviewing, workplace investigations, criminal investigative interviewing, rapport development, cognitive interviewing, interview strategy, and evidence-based approaches to obtaining reliable information. WZ advocates for ethical, non-confrontational and science-informed interviewing practices designed to help investigators move beyond simply seeking admissions or confessions and instead focus on the real objective of an investigation: developing accurate and reliable information. Through instructor-led programs and the Human Risk Academy powered by WZ, Wicklander-Zulawski provides training and professional development for law enforcement, corporate investigations, loss prevention and asset protection, human resources and employee relations professionals, and other investigators responsible for navigating high-risk human interactions. Truth Be Told continues that mission through conversations with researchers, practitioners, investigators, leaders, journalists, advocates, and people whose experiences challenge us to think differently about how we investigate, how we communicate, and how we understand one another.

From February 20, 2025: On Jan. 29, President Trump ordered the expansion of facilities at Guantanamo Bay to hold migrants being deported from the United States. It was the latest—and perhaps most aggressive—move to deploy the U.S. military in pursuit of the administration's immigration policies. And it's not at all clear that there's a solid legal basis for doing it. Executive Editor Natalie Orpett sat down with Chris Mirasola, Assistant Professor at the University of Houston Law Center and author of a recent piece in Lawfare on this subject, to talk through the legal issues, the administration's strategy, and what it all means for Trump's unconventional use of the military.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

This episode examines the systematic violations of Palestinian human rights and the international community's failure to hold Israel accountable for breaching its treaty obligations. Accountability is necessary for the documented crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution that Israeli authorities commit against millions of Palestinians, and the broader pattern of human rights abuses across Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. How do these violations persist despite clear international legal frameworks, and the devastating humanitarian consequences for Palestinian civilians who face displacement, restricted access to basic services, and ongoing threats to their survival? We analyze the international community's inconsistent response to these documented abuses and the urgent need for meaningful accountability mechanisms. Join host Sahar Aziz for this critical analysis of international law, state responsibility, and the ongoing humanitarian crisis facing millions of Palestinians. Our guest is Omar Shakir, Israel and Palestine Director at Human Rights Watch, whose groundbreaking documentation of Israeli apartheid and persecution led to his deportation by the Israeli government in 2019. A Stanford Law graduate and former Fulbright Scholar, Shakir has dedicated his career to human rights advocacy, from representing Guantanamo detainees at the Center for Constitutional Rights to investigating the Rab'a massacre in Egypt. His comprehensive reports on crimes against humanity in Israel and Palestine have shaped international discourse on accountability and justice.   #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #Genocide #ICC #HumanRights  BiographyOmar Shakir is the Executive Director of Democracy in the Arab World Now (DAWN), the organization founded by the late Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi that seeks to change US policy in the Middle East and hold human rights abusers in the region accountable. Prior to his current role, Omar served for nearly a decade as the Israel and Palestine Director at Human Rights Watch. In that capacity, he spearheaded the organization's documentation of the genocide in Gaza and other atrocities across Israel/Palestine and authored several seminal reports, including a 213-page report documenting how Israeli authorities are committing the crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution against millions of Palestinians, the most widely covered and viewed report in the organization's history. Before that, he was a Bertha Fellow at the Center for Constitutional Rights, where he worked as part of legal teams that represented men detained at Guantanamo Bay, making frequent visits to the detention facility.Recommended ReadingsExtermination and Acts of Genocide, Human Rights Watch (2024)Hopeless, Starving, and Besieged, Human Rights Watch (2024)A Threshold Crossed: Israeli Authorities and the Crimes of Apartheid and Persecution, Human Rights Watch (2021)Support the showSupport the Center for Security, Race and Rights by following us and making a donation:Donate: https://give.rutgersfoundation.org/csrr-support/20046.html Subscribe to our Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEbUfYcWGZapBNYvCObiCpp3qtxgH_jFy Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rucsrr Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Threads: https://threads.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/rucsrr Follow us on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/rucsrr

In 1961 the United States launched the largest covert operation of the Cold War against a single country, a campaign of sabotage, terror, and assassination aimed at destroying the Cuban Revolution ninety miles from Florida. It was code-named Operation Mongoose. Alongside it, the Joint Chiefs of Staff drew up Operation Northwoods, a plan to stage terrorist attacks on American citizens and blame them on Havana in order to manufacture a pretext for a full-scale invasion.In this episode we take a deep dive into how Mongoose and Northwoods were conceived and authorized at the highest levels of the US government and how the embargo and regime change logic still operate today.This is part of the first season of Socialist History, our new series on The Socialist Program.

The conversation shifts to Las Vegas, where a massive, highly anticipated In-N-Out Burger recently opened on the Strip. Bliss details the chain's reputation for fresh food, cleanliness, and fair employee wages. (1)Jeff Bliss discusses the surprising results of the Los Angeles City Council primary, where Nithya Raman surged despite initially conceding. He highlights allegations of voter fraud in the Skid Row area and the impact of California's ballot harvesting laws. The segment also touches on Xavier Becerra's lead in the governor's race. (2)Richard Epstein analyzes the legal effort to prevent the removal of Donald Trump's name from the Kennedy Centerfacade. He argues that the Trump-aligned board's appeal lacks legal merit and strength, as removing a nameplate does not constitute irreparable harm. Epstein suggests the judge should consider firing the current board due to bias. (3)Richard Epstein critiques the construction of the Obama Center in Chicago, lamenting the destruction of 800 historical trees and the seizure of public land. He describes the project's design as a "monstrosity" with a flawed traffic plan and expresses concern over the foundation's lack of financial transparency and endowment. (4)Jim McTague reports on a "budget-minded hesitancy" among Pennsylvania consumers despite falling gas prices. He notes a rare layoff notice for 70 logistics workers and uneven retail activity. Meanwhile, a data center project near Costcoproceeds under heavy security, while a similar proposal was rejected by a neighboring borough. (5)Lorenzo Fiori discusses the "disaster" of the Italian national football team failing to qualify for the World Cup for the third consecutive time. The segment transitions to Pisa, highlighting the prestigious Scuola Normale Superiore and recent astronomical breakthroughs involving the James Webb Space Telescope. Fiori concludes with local wine and culinary recommendations. (6)Bob Zimmerman discusses the crew selection for NASA's Artemis 3 mission, which has been simplified to focus on Earth-orbit docking tests. He also examines private sector developments, including German startup Isar's funding, Stoke Space's reusable rocket design, and an orbital servicing mission by Catalyst intended to rescue a decaying NASAtelescope. (7)Bob Zimmerman honors the late Alan Hale, co-discoverer of the record-setting Comet Hale-Bopp. He reviews the historical significance of the first image of the moon's far side taken by Luna 3 in 1959. The segment also explores current cosmological debates regarding dark energy and the existence of "little red dots" in the early universe. (8)Peter Huessy discusses the history of "tactical" nuclear weapons and the 1950s Desert Rock exercises where U.S. troops were exposed to nuclear detonations. He details the health risks soldiers faced and parallels these actions with Sovietmaneuvers, highlighting the "ludicrous" idea of trying to operate militarily in a post-detonation environment. (9)Peter Huessy explains that Russia views low-yield, tactical nuclear weapons as usable battlefield tools to achieve victory or coerce opponents. He contrasts this with U.S. doctrine, which keeps such weapons under central command. Huessywarns of the lack of transparency regarding China's dual-use nuclear capabilities and Russia's "reckless" potential to use these weapons. (10)Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses stalled negotiations with Iran, noting the heavy influence of the Revolutionary Guard Corps over the diplomatic process. He analyzes the military difficulty of seizing Kharg Island and the profound impact of Ukrainian drones on the Russian front, suggesting that drone saturation has leveled the battlefield and interdicted Russian resupply lines. (11)Jeff McCausland draws parallels between the performative style of Civil War General Jeb Stuart and current Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. He critiques Hegseth's recent speeches in Singapore, Normandy, and Guantanamo, arguing they prioritize individual image over grand strategy and mark significant, potentially transactional shifts in long-standing U.S. foreign policy toward Taiwan and European allies. (12)Veronique de Rugy argues that the U.S. already has the most progressive tax system among OECD countries, with the wealthy paying a disproportionate share of revenue. She critiques Thomas Piketty's proposal for a global wealth tax and mandated "degrowth," characterizing it as an effort to limit national growth under the guise of climate and social justice. (13)Mary Anastasia O'Grady questions the delay in scheduling Venezuelan elections under Delcy Rodriguez. She reports that over 400 political prisoners remain held, and the notorious Helicoide prison remains operational despite contradictory claims. O'Grady notes that the regime lacks the political will to allow a free press or fair electoral body to organize. (14)Conrad Black emphasizes the vital economic ties between the U.S. and Canada, noting Canada provides 25% of U.S.aluminum and 20% of its uranium. He expresses confidence that Prime Minister Mark Carney will build necessary oil pipelines to both coasts to benefit the Canadian economy, despite opposition from environmental groups and Carney's own "green instincts." (15)Francis Rose discusses the U.S. military's efforts to integrate AI by "gamifying" systems to make them intuitive for young, video-game-literate service members. He also highlights CISA's work in rebuilding its workforce to protect private-sector cyber infrastructure and the Army's Joint Innovation Outpost, which aims to accelerate the transition of technology from private inventors to the battlefield.

On this June 11, 2026 episode of Right On Radio, host Jeff delivers rapid-breaking coverage and big-picture analysis of the day's most consequential stories. He opens with major international developments in the Iran conflict — including U.S. strikes, reported destruction of Iranian defense capabilities, claims about taking Karg Island (a key oil distribution hub), and how control of oil flows mirrors the U.S.–Venezuela model. Jeff connects kinetic military action to a larger battle over the global financial system and the coming shift toward digital currency. The show features and analyzes clips from President Donald J. Trump — on oil interdiction, expected drops in energy prices, the possibility of normalizing Iran through the Abraham Accords, and comments about regime change. Jeff also touches on Q-related communications, Guantanamo imagery, and strategic messaging around Israeli politics and Gaza. Domestically, Jeff breaks down the Save America Act and election-security measures Trump discussed: mandatory photo ID, proof of citizenship, restrictions on mail-in ballots (with exemptions), and the Postal Service's reported plan for unique barcoded ballots. He reviews claims about compromised votes, gerrymandering, accountability efforts, pending arrests, and the political implications for Congress and the 2020 controversy resurfacing. The episode also explores emerging technology and economics: Trump's meeting with top AI executives, the potential of AI to reshape markets and generational wealth, and concerns about which players will dominate the next monetary order. Jeff speculates on equity shifts, data-center viability, and how AI-driven trading could be used to reallocate global assets. North American geopolitics and trade receive attention as well — from U.S.–Canada tensions and the USMCA renewal question to discussions of Canada's internal crises and the idea of tighter continental integration. Jeff plays a highlighted Canadian clip and explains how trade and security friction are influencing broader strategy. Additional items covered: military and diplomatic maneuvers in the Gulf and Cuba (Pete Hegseth and others), domestic policy moves (mortgage/capital gains proposals and Treasury actions), disclosure and the Mass Deception series promotions, sponsor mentions (mushroom supplements and pet treats), and a personal update from Jeff about serious eye-health news and an appeal for listener support. What to expect: hard-hitting commentary that links battlefield events to financial and geopolitical transformations, audio clips from high-profile figures, policy breakdowns affecting elections and trade, technology and AI implications for wealth distribution, and a blend of news, faith-based perspective, and calls-to-action for Jeff's ongoing series and community support.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Richard Kammen, author of the book Tortured Justice Alabama. During his fifty-year practice, Richard (Rick) Kammen was one of Indiana's top criminal defense lawyers and a nationally recognized expert in defending homicide and capital cases. He also defended numerous white-collar and complex cases involving alleged obscenity and healthcare issues.   Rick graduated from Ripon College cum laude in 1968 and New York University School of Law in 1971. Admitted to the Bar in 1971, he began his practice after service in the United States Army. Now semi-retired, Mr. Kammen still speaks to groups of lawyers and consults with lawyers throughout the United States.   When he retired, Rick began writing fiction. His first novel, Tortured Justice Guantanamo Bay, inspired by his work in Guantanamo, was published in the spring of 2023. His second novel, Tortured Justice South Carolina, set in the Low Country of South Carolina and Mexico, was published in 2024. Rick's most recent book, Tortured Justice Alabama, which fictionally describes the prosecution of a physician for performing a legal abortion, was published in March 2025.   Rick now lives and writes in Hilton Head and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.   In my book review, I stated Tortured Justice Alabama is a political thriller by Richard Kammen - and this is a book that will get you thinking about what you believe and why. Richard immediately introduces us to the main characters - a 12-year old girl, raped and impregnated by her cousin, her mother who only wants the best for her daughter, a local doctor who isn't allowed to perform an abortion because of state laws, and an out-of-state doctor who lives in a state with legal abortion. When the mother crosses states lines so her daughter can terminate the pregnancy, everything changes swiftly, and we are introduced to the attorney who takes on the case!   Whether you are pro-life or pro-choice, I think you will find this story riveting. Why? Because few social issues - or the laws that regulate them - are as cut and dried as they seem. What actually constitutes the health and well-being of the mother - and who gets to decide? Should mental health be a consideration? Or age? Or rape? Or incest? Does someone of 12 have the ability to make these choices? Should a parent be able to decide for a minor? What if the parents don't agree? Can a doctor in a state allowing abortion be tried for performing one on someone from another state that doesn't allow abortion? When does the law supersede the doctor/patient relationship? And so much more!   This is a really well-written book that will make you think. I highly recommend it.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   You can follow Author Richard Kammen Website: https://richardkammen.com/ FB: @authorrichardkammen FB: @RichardLKammen IG: @kammenlaw LinkedIn: @Richard Kammen X: @kammenlaw   Purchase Tortured Justice Alabama on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4bMl2Ml Ebook: https://amzn.to/4lOUNJS   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

Hermandad, sentimiento y corazón reverenciando a uno de los barrios más musicales de La Habana. Con el título de "Amigos de Santa Amalia", en 1999: el trompetista Julito Padrón, el trombonista Juan Carlos Marín, David Alfaro al piano, David Suárez en saxo, Alfredo Echevarría en bajo, Lukmil Pérez en drums y Alexis Cuesta en las tumbadoras, entre otros, dejaron testimonio de un tiempo único en el devenir de la música popular cubana. Sonidos homenajeando a un barrio lleno de historia donde, en décadas pasadas, convivieron grandes artistas y músicos como los pianistas Robertico Álvarez, Bebo Valdés, Rafael Ortega y Chucho Valdés, el saxofonista René Ravelo, el bongosero Guillermo Romero, y los cantantes Weeno Rodríguez, las hermanas Romay y Mayra Caridad Valdés, figuras que durante años mantuvieron vivo el pulso artístico en sus calles. Le pusieron voz y sentimiento a "Los amigos de Santa Amalia": Julito Padrón, Aramis Galindo y Moraima Marín. Amado de Jesús Dedeu siempre será recordado entonando sereno, clave en mano, los aires de la rumba y el guaguancó. Unos minutos para recordar al veterano rumbero que le entregó alma, corazón y vida al canto y los toques que, en esencia, continúan definiendo el mapa sonoro de Cuba. Falleció en La Habana el 14 de febrero de 2026. En la memoria el maestro Dedeu con su Grupo "Clave y Guaguancó". Boris Larramendi compuso los temas que hoy completan su más reciente álbum, ubicado ya en todas las plataformas digitales, entre 2021 y 2025. Su título: "Oye". Fiel en esencia al sonido que ha caracterizado su permanencia en los escenarios por más de treinta años, para completar esta nueva aventura discográfica, contó con viejos colegas: Nam San Fong en la co-producción y las guitarras eléctricas, Johan Medina en la batería, Eduardo Rodríguez en la percusión, Daniel Stable en el bajo y Dianela de la Portilla en los coros. Como invitada especial: Ivette Falcón en violoncello y los infaltables "Habana Abierta": Vanito, Alejandro, Medina, Kelvis y Barbería. En la mezcla y el mastering de este nuevo trabajo de Boris: Oscar Autie, en el Cerrito Records. En el diseño de la portada que hoy identifica nuestro programa: la talentosa artista plástica Camila Lobón. Un lujo compartir contigo estos sonidos en primicia, invitándote a encontrarlo en las plataformas digitales. Los años 40 del siglo XX lo vieron despuntar como uno de los pianistas, compositores y arreglistas fundamentales en el mismo centro de la llamada "era de los conjuntos soneros". Sin embargo el quehacer de Luis Martinez Griñán, ya entonces bien conocido en el ambiente musical como "Lilí", inmerso en el patrón estilístico establecido por el tresero Arsenio Rodríguez, tendrá mayor campo de expresión en la década siguiente cuando Chappotin se hace cargo del conjunto del ciego maravilloso. Sus arreglos donde los riffs de los metales se abrieron más al swing, así como las cadencias de los montunos que, aún marcadas por la clave, resultaron menos recias, le permitieron perfilar su progresivo y original concepto interpretativo. La memoria nos trae de vuelta algunas piezas del gran Lilí Martinez, el músico innovador, el pianista sonero cuyas grabaciones, a pesar de los años, mantienen intactas frescura, sabor y, por supuesto, muchísima cubanía. "La perla de Oriente" vió la luz en Guantanamo el 19 de agosto de 1915. Muy próximo el centenario de su natalicio es sumamente importante tener en cuenta su legado.

À Cuba, paralysée par l'étranglement énergétique imposé par les États-Unis, les journaux décrivent une île qui tourne désormais au ralenti. Même La Havane, généralement la dernière à subir les effets des crises qui frappent le pays, n'est pas épargnée. Dans la capitale, la plupart des hôtels ont encore assez de carburant dans leurs groupes électrogènes pour allumer leurs enseignes la nuit venue. Mais les chambres, elles, restent plongées dans le noir. Et les touristes, de plus en plus rares, sont regroupés dans les mêmes établissements. Ce sont aussi des gens qui ne peuvent plus rentrer chez eux parce que les bus ne circulent plus. Et ce n'est pas mieux pour les trains. Pour aller à Guantanamo ou Santiago de Cuba au départ de La Havane, par exemple, il faut compter un train tous les quatre jours... dans le meilleur des cas. Dans les hôpitaux, cette crise du carburant se traduit par une pénurie de médicaments, l'arrêt des interventions chirurgicales et la suspension des transferts ambulatoires.   Soutien à Cuba Tout cela, c'est 14ymedio qui le raconte. Le journal en ligne propose une série de reportages sur les conséquences de ce blocus imposé par les États-Unis, qui menacent de surtaxes les pays qui continueraient à livrer du pétrole à Cuba. C'est le cas du Mexique, dont la présidente Claudia Sheinbaum a répété hier que son pays n'abandonnerait pas les Cubains. Mais la présidente mexicaine n'est pas la seule à exprimer son soutien, ce que Granma ne manque d'ailleurs pas de souligner. L'organe du régime cubain le proclame en Une de son site : « Cuba n'est pas seule ». « Dans un contexte où l'empire tente d'étouffer Cuba, le monde répond avec un soutien au plus haut niveau », écrit le journal. Et de citer les ministères russe et chinois des Affaires étrangères, le pape Léon XIV, le président brésilien... qui tous, chacun à leur manière, expriment leur préoccupation pour la population. Mais pour Milenio, au Mexique, nous assistons à la fin de la révolution cubaine. Le journal qui reprend à son compte l'analyse de Ricardo Pascoe Pierce, ancien ambassadeur du Mexique à Cuba. Pour le quotidien, lorsqu'une idéologie refuse de voir la réalité, ce n'est pas seulement la révolution qui meurt, c'est aussi la crédibilité de ceux qui ont essayé de la soutenir. Suivez mon regard...   Une amnistie qui pose question Au Venezuela, le vote sur la loi d'amnistie générale promise par la présidente par intérim Delcy Rodriguez sous la pression de Washington devait avoir lieu aujourd'hui. Il finalement été reporté sine die. Ça n'empêche pas la presse de continuer à exprimer son scepticisme. « Une loi d'amnistie dans le dos du pays », titre ainsi El Nacional. « Une loi destinée à mettre fin à un cycle autoritaire peut-elle naître sans un débat ouvert et sans garanties pour les victimes ? », s'interroge le quotidien d'opposition. Pour lui, la loi promise par Delcy Rodriguez n'est pas suffisante. Elle doit être accompagnée de mesures immédiates. À commencer par le démantèlement de l'échafaudage juridique, qui sert depuis des années à persécuter la dissidence.  De son côté, TalCual passe en revue tous ceux qui ne pourront pas bénéficier de cette loi d'amnistie. Le régime a déjà prévenu que les personnes qui ont commis des violations graves des droits humains, des crimes contre l'humanité, des crimes de guerre, des homicides intentionnels, de la corruption et du trafic de drogue en seraient exclus. Mais dans un pays où le système judiciaire a la réputation d'être aux ordres, les experts interrogés par TalCual appellent à la création d'une commission indépendante pour trancher.   La souveraineté confisquée d'Haïti En Haïti, le directeur de l'agence Alterpresse Gotson Pierre revient sur l'incertitude politique qui perdure après la fin du mandat du Conseil présidentiel de transition. Désormais, c'est le Premier ministre seul qui gouverne mais sans étape ni calendrier défini à l'avance. À lire également sur le site d'Alterpresse, des accusations du Réseau national de défense des droits humains, qui dénonce des avis de recherche arbitraires de la part de la direction de la police judiciaire. Au Mexique, dans la ville de Puebla, les femmes commencent tout juste à se faire une place dans le sport national, la charreria. Cela consiste en une série d'épreuves à cheval et avec des taureaux, inspirées du travail dans les haciendas et très marquées par le machisme ambiant. Les femmes n'y sont pas les bienvenues, mais certaines forcent l'entrée. Un reportage de notre correspondante à Mexico, Gwendolina Duval.

In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by super producer A-King, journalist Jayson Rodriguez, and special guest Jason “Jah” Lee for a wide-ranging, thought-provoking conversation unpacking the intersection of politics, culture, media, and accountability. The episode opens with a breakdown of the current political climate and headline-making events shaping public discourse [00:55], followed by candid reactions to political figures and viral moments dominating social media [03:13]. As the conversation unfolds, the hosts share cultural observations and “ignorant thoughts” rooted in everyday experiences [06:04], including personal anecdotes about family dynamics and community values [08:57], all while emphasizing empathy as a necessary tool when navigating complex social issues [11:57]. The discussion expands into the growing influence of rappers and entertainers within podcasting and streaming culture [15:00], alongside debates about dinner etiquette, social expectations, and respect in communal spaces [17:45]. From there, the episode takes a deeper political turn, examining ICE actions in Minnesota and their broader implications [21:05], community protests and public reactions [23:53], and the stark differences in how similar events are framed by media and the public [26:47]. Through a historical lens, the hosts contextualize media representation, militias, and ICE [29:59, 56:39], before breaking down the evolving political landscape surrounding Jasmine Crockett’s rise and Senate ambitions [58:27], as well as the long-term consequences of redistricting [01:02:06]. Later in the episode, the conversation sharpens around accountability and influence in modern media, with reflections on the role journalists, streamers, and celebrities play in shaping narratives [01:04:16, 01:09:00]. The hosts explore how gender intersects with politics [01:12:45], and how celebrity culture continues to blur the lines between entertainment and ideology [01:16:31]. During the broader discussion on online discourse and streaming culture [01:20:55, 01:25:09], friend of the show Glasses Malone calls in to unpack his recent stance on Aiden Ross’ vitriol toward hip-hop star Doechii, adding industry perspective and context to the ongoing debate around respect, hip-hop culture, and digital responsibility. The episode closes with a powerful reflection on accountability, empathy, and respect in public commentary [01:30:38], before wrapping with final thoughts and future directions for the culture [01:38:20].

Ex-FBI sniper Christopher Whitcomb survived warlords, black ops, and helicopter crashes. He's here to explain how calculating risk kept him alive. [Pt. 2/2]Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1243What We Discuss with Christopher Whitcomb:Guantanamo Bay exposed the systematic breakdown between official policy and reality. Christopher Whitcomb witnessed 13-year-olds detained 12,000 miles from home while interrogators chanted "Fair, firm and impartial" over prisoners' screams. The same general later oversaw Abu Ghraib's abuses.East Timor combined apocalyptic violence with staggering natural wealth. Indonesia massacred up to 300,000 people during the island's secession, yet oil bubbled from the ground and natural gas ignited hillsides, creating a Wild West economy that attracted contractors seeking manageable chaos.Intelligence work often pays in ways that complicate normal life. Christopher earned contracting money through intelligence agencies that was "hard to spend sometimes," revealing the strange economics of covert operations.Elite operators face profound psychological costs. Christopher's friend warned him to "stop trying to get 14-year-old guys to kill you because you have some death fantasy," highlighting how repeated high-stakes missions create patterns of self-destructive behavior that operators must eventually confront.Recognition of dysfunction is the first step toward meaningful change. By acknowledging his own "insanity" and identity crisis, Christopher demonstrates that even those in extreme professions can develop self-awareness and begin questioning the systems they served.

The legal definition of the term 'unlawful combatants' was used to justify detaining people at Guantanamo indefinitely, without ever charging them with a crime. Now, the president is using it to describe the alleged drug smugglers that the military is targeting with boat strikes.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Avery Keatley and Gabriel Sanchez.

Mental Collapse or Delphi Murder Admission? Richard Allen Jail Calls Exposed

This second segment dives into the devastating mental deterioration of Richard Allen during his 13-month pretrial incarceration in solitary confinement—what the state called a “safekeeping order.” Tony, Stacy, Todd, and Bob break down how Allen was isolated, broken down, and allegedly manipulated into confessing to the Delphi murders—not through force, but through psychological collapse. Bob takes us inside the jailhouse calls, including one made at 3:15 AM where Allen desperately tells his stepfather he's losing his mind and feels like he's in Guantanamo. Hours later, in a fog of confusion, he tells his wife, “I did it”—then follows with, “Evidently I did.” Is that a confession? Or the ramblings of a man pushed to the brink? We discuss how labeling solitary as a “single-person cell” let the state sidestep human rights standards, why the court excluded a jail call where Allen professes his innocence, and how this system, by design or dysfunction, weaponizes mental illness to build a case. If this was strategy, not oversight, it's one of the most ethically disturbing chapters in modern true crime. This segment lays bare the line between confession and coercion—and forces us to ask: is it justice if you have to destroy a man's mind to convict him? #RichardAllen #SolitaryConfinement #FalseConfession #DelphiMurders #TrueCrime #JailhouseCall #PsychologicalAbuse #MentalHealthCrisis #WrongfulConviction #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

ROGGIO Bill Roggio, associated with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, discussed the recent news regarding a hostage situation involving the Taliban. Key details from Roggio's segment: Hostage Release: Secretary of State Rubio reportedly won the release of an American citizen who had been held hostage by the Taliban in Kabul for nine months. The citizen was being held "illicitly and outrageously." The Cost (The "Twist"): Roggio noted that the crucial detail—the "twist"—is what the US may have given up in order to secure the return of its own citizen. The Likely Swap Target: It is very likely that the exchange involves an individual held at Guantanamo named Muhammad Rahim, an al-Qaeda operative. Significance of Muhammad Rahim: According to US intelligence: Rahim was close to Osama bin Laden. He helped bin Laden escape from Tora Bora. He served as Mullah Omar's driver. Mullah Omar was identified as the founder and former head of the Taliban. US Military Stance and Prediction: Muhammad Rahim is an individual whom the US military does not want to release. Despite this, Roggio predicted it is very likely that Rahim will be "walking free sometime soon." Negotiation Dynamics: Roggio concluded that in these types of negotiations, there is "always a cost," and the Taliban usually wins.

Twenty-four years ago today, two planes crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, another hit the Pentagon, and another went down in a field in Pennsylvania. It was the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil in American history. But the men the United States accuses of perpetrating the attacks haven't been held accountable. In fact, they haven't even gone to trial.For today's podcast, Executive Editor Natalie Orpett talks with John Ryan, co-founder of Lawdragon and author of the book, “America's Trial: Torture and the 9/11 Case on Guantanamo Bay,” to help explain why. They talk about John's 10 years covering the 9/11 case, why it's so hard to report from Guantanamo, why the case has been bogged down in pretrial proceedings for over a decade, and what torture has to do with it all. Note: Orpett referred to Lawfare's recent coverage of the 9/11 case, including pieces about Secretary Austin's withdrawal, the military commission's ruling upholding the pleas, the D.C. Circuit's reversal, and the recent suppression ruling in the Ammar al Baluchi case.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
