This Day in Legal History: Nuremberg Laws EnactedOn this day in legal history, September 15, 1935, Nazi Germany enacted the Nuremberg Laws, codifying one of the most infamous legal frameworks of racial discrimination and hate in modern history. Announced at the annual Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, these laws included the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor, the Reich Citizenship Law, and later, the Law for the Protection of the Hereditary Health of the German People. Together, they stripped Jews of German citizenship, prohibited marriage and sexual relations between Jews and “Aryans,” and laid the groundwork for systematic persecution.The Reich Citizenship Law divided citizens into two classes: full citizens, who were of "German or related blood," and subjects, who were denied full political rights. Jews were relegated to the latter category. The Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor banned intermarriage and extramarital relations between Jews and Germans, criminalizing personal relationships based on ancestry. Violators could be imprisoned or sent to concentration camps.To enforce these laws, the Nazi regime devised elaborate charts and pseudoscientific metrics to assess Jewish ancestry, culminating in a 1936 chart issued by the Reich Health Office. This visual aid defined citizens by the number of Jewish grandparents they had, assigning labels like Mischling (mixed race) to those with partial Jewish heritage. Even one Jewish grandparent could strip a person of civil rights.The Law for the Protection of the Hereditary Health of the German People added a eugenic dimension, requiring couples to undergo genetic testing before marriage and barring those deemed "genetically unfit" from reproducing. These legal measures normalized state-sponsored racism and laid a legal foundation for the Holocaust.Big Law firm Perkins Coie terminated an attorney over a social media post that appeared to criticize conservative figure Charlie Kirk following his shooting death. The firm stated the post did not align with its values and that the lawyer's conduct fell significantly below professional expectations. The firing was made effective immediately. Kirk, 31, served as executive director of Turning Point USA and was a prominent supporter of Donald Trump. He was fatally shot while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University. Perkins Coie has a history of political entanglements, notably becoming one of the first law firms to sue Trump after his executive orders targeted firms representing political adversaries. These orders reportedly restricted access to federal facilities, revoked security clearances, and jeopardized client contracts. The firm was a particular focus for Trump due to its work during Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, including hiring Fusion GPS to conduct research that led to the Steele dossier, which alleged ties between Trump's campaign and the Russian government.Perkins Coie Fires Attorney Over Social Media Post on Kirk ShootingU.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly extended a temporary block on the deportation of unaccompanied Guatemalan children with active immigration cases. The move halts a Trump-era effort that attempted to deport 76 minors without proper notice or legal process, including waking children in the early hours of August 31 to board planes. The judge's ruling followed a contentious September 10 hearing, where he criticized a Justice Department attorney for falsely claiming that all the children's parents had requested their return. A report from the Guatemalan Attorney General's Office later revealed that most parents couldn't be located, and many of those found did not want their children repatriated.The children in question mostly come from Guatemala's Indigenous, rural regions—Huehuetenango, San Marcos, Quiché, and Alta Verapaz—areas known for high poverty and malnutrition. Guatemalan officials emphasized that such a large-scale repatriation request was unprecedented. Some families reportedly mortgaged their homes to finance the children's migration, indicating the high stakes involved.US judge extends block on deportations of unaccompanied Guatemalan migrant children | ReutersU.S. District Judge William Alsup ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully directed the mass firing of around 25,000 federal probationary employees earlier this year. These workers, many of whom had served in their roles for less than a year, were dismissed under a directive from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in February. The mass terminations sparked lawsuits from unions, nonprofits, and the state of Washington, arguing the firings lacked legal justification.Judge Alsup found that the OPM's directive was unlawful and "pretextual," noting the terminations were falsely framed as performance-related. While he acknowledged that the workers had been harmed, he declined to order their reinstatement, citing recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings limiting judicial power over executive branch hiring and firing decisions. Specifically, the Supreme Court had previously paused a preliminary injunction in April that would have reinstated 17,000 employees.Despite not ordering reinstatement, Alsup mandated that 19 federal agencies, including Defense, Veterans Affairs, and Treasury, correct the employment records of affected workers by November 14. He also prohibited agencies from continuing to follow OPM's original directive. Union leaders praised the decision for confirming the firings were baseless and for requiring agencies to acknowledge the false rationale behind the terminations.Trump administration unlawfully directed mass US worker terminations, judge rules | ReutersThe University of California, Berkeley confirmed it had shared information on 160 students, faculty, and staff with the Trump administration, in response to a federal investigation into alleged antisemitism. The data was provided to the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights as part of an ongoing probe linked to pro-Palestinian protests on campus. The university stated that it acted under legal obligation while striving to protect individual privacy and notified those affected.This move comes amid a broader effort by the Trump administration to penalize universities accused of allowing antisemitic behavior, particularly during recent demonstrations opposing Israel's actions in Gaza. Critics argue that the administration is conflating political protest and advocacy for Palestinian rights with antisemitism, raising serious concerns about free speech, academic freedom, and due process.Trump has threatened to cut federal funding to institutions involved in such protests and attempted to deport foreign student demonstrators, though those efforts have faced legal challenges. The administration has already reached high-profile settlements with Columbia and Brown universities and is in ongoing talks with Harvard. A proposed $1 billion settlement with UCLA was publicly rejected by California Governor Gavin Newsom, who called it extortion.UC Berkeley shares information on dozens of students, staff with Trump administration | Reuters This is a public episode.

The small Guatemalan town of El Estor was once a bustling mining hub, home to two major nickel mines that provided thousands of jobs and sustained the local government. In 2022, U.S. sanctions shuttered those mines almost overnight, triggering massive job losses, starving the town of public revenues, and collapsing small businesses. Families that had worked their way into the middle class were suddenly plunged into poverty, and many residents—facing few options—were forced to emigrate, setting out on the dangerous journey north to the United States.Jeff Stein is the Washington Post's chief economics correspondent. As part of a remarkable series of investigative stories called “The Money War,” Jeff reported from El Estor, bearing witness to the ways in which sanctions policies set in Washington can change the fortunes of communities thousands of miles away.The Sanctions Age is hosted by Esfandyar Batmanghelidj.

It's hard to believe some of the stories of deceit and corruption by Donald Trump and Pam Bondi's DOJ officials and attorneys are real. But as Politico just reported: "DOJ backs off claims about Guatemalan children it sought to deport".The case involves parents who were located in Guatemala but who had children in the United States. In a staggering display of lying to a court, a DOJ attorney named Drew Ensign told a judge that "all of the parents and guardians" in Guatemala wanted their children deported from the US back to Guatemala.It turns out that NONE of the parents and guardians of children said any such thing. Indeed, a subsequent DOJ attorney who appeared in the case withdrew and retracted the false statement.Glenn discusses this legal development and suggests that the court take action to hold Ensign accountable for providing false information to the court in an apparent effort to trample the due process rights of Guatemalan children.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A judge has blocked the federal government's effort to remove dozens of immigrant children. AP correspondent Mike Hempen reports.
What happens when we take justice into our own hands? Author Ben C. Davies joins Purple Political Breakdown to explore the complex reality of systemic injustice and individual response.In this thought-provoking guest episode, we dive deep into the intersection of politics, justice, and human nature with Ben C. Davies, UK-born author of "And So I Took Their Eye" - a debut collection that examines how people seek justice when institutions fail them. Drawing from his experiences living in Guatemala, the UK, and the United States, Davies offers a nuanced perspective that transcends traditional political boundaries.Key Discussion Points:Why both major political parties - Democrats and Republicans, Labour and Conservative - are failing citizensHow wealth inequality and institutional breakdown drive people to seek personal justiceThe difference between community-based support systems (Scandinavian model) vs. American individualismReal-world examples from Guatemala's "eye for an eye" culture and how it manifests globallyThe role of empathy and storytelling in bridging political dividesWhy current immigration rhetoric and foreign aid cuts reveal our disconnect from human consequencesDavies, who teaches at California College of the Arts and co-runs a Guatemalan writing residency, brings unique insights from someone who's witnessed political systems across multiple continents. His book critiques both left-wing and right-wing institutions while exploring what drives ordinary people to take matters into their own hands when systems fail.This episode aligns perfectly with Purple Political Breakdown's mission - examining where our institutions are failing people without partisan agenda, focusing on the human cost of political polarization and the search for authentic solutions beyond traditional party lines.Perfect for listeners interested in political philosophy, social justice, international perspectives on American politics, and the psychological roots of political behavior.Keywords & SEO TagsPrimary Keywords: political justice, institutional failure, wealth inequality, political polarization, bipartisan critique, social systems, political philosophy, international politics perspectiveSecondary Keywords: Guatemala politics, immigration policy consequences, Scandinavian socialism, American individualism, foreign aid impact, political empathy, systemic injustice, cross-cultural politicsAuthor/Book Keywords: Ben C Davies, And So I Took Their Eye, political fiction, California College Arts, Guatemala writing residency, UK author, political storytellingTopic-Specific Keywords: eye for an eye justice, community support systems, tax policy discussion, political institutions critique, human rights advocacy, cultural political differencesIG: @bendaviesauthorwww.bendaviesauthor.comStandard Resource Links & RecommendationsThe following organizations and platforms represent valuable resources for balanced political discourse and democratic participation: PODCAST NETWORKALIVE Podcast Network - Check out the ALIVE Network where you can catch a lot of great podcasts like my own, led by amazing Black voices.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Anna Bower, Tyler McBrien, and Peter Harrell to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Faginomics.” With the recent announcement that the U.S. government would be taking a 10% stake in the company Intel, the Trump administration has ushered in a new era of state-guided industrial policy, fueled by concerns of major power competition, particularly around the race to AI. How does this new policy intersect with its other novel economic priorities, such as the imposition of tariffs? And how legally viable is it, given present (and potentially future) legal challenges?“Ménage à Trois.” On the margins of the recent meeting of the China- and Russia-led Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a point of warmly (and very publicly) embracing Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping—a move many have taken as a clear shot across the bow at the Trump administration, which has been in heated economic negotiations with India over tariffs and trade relations. What does this exchange say about the Trump administration's handling of the U.S. relationship with India—and other key U.S. relationships?“Midnight Planes Going Nowhere.” In an emergency hearing over the holiday weekend, federal judge Sparkle Sooknanan stopped the Trump administration from deporting hundreds of unaccompanied Guatemalan minor migrants to their home country—a move that the government of Guatemala has now claimed that it invited. What should we make of this move by the Trump administration? And how does it fit within its broader immigration crackdown?In object lessons, Tyler biked to City Island, NY, discovering a charming little enclave with great food, shops, and beaches. Sticking with the New York theme, Anna recommends “John Proctor is the Villain,” a play by a writer from her Georgia hometown that's so good it's making women cry. Scott, meanwhile, left New York behind to live his best Neapolitan life with a new backyard pizza oven that can achieve the appropriate temp for a puffy crust. And Peter's been reading “When the Clock Broke,” a reminder that the 1990s may have been the dress rehearsal for our current political dumpster fire, all the while keeping an eye on challenges to Trump v.

After a Labor Day weekend that saw a judge halt the Trump administration's attempt to deport dozens of Guatemalan children already loaded onto airplanes, Andrew and Mary had planned to start their conversation there. But just this morning, Judge Charles Breyer ruled the administration cannot deploy U.S. military to carry out law enforcement operations, as this violates the Posse Comitatus Act. Andrew and Mary provide historical context for the act and walk us through the rationale of this latest ruling. Then, they take a beat on moves to oust two more Trump appointed U.S. Attorneys in California and Nevada who have yet to be congressionally approved. And last up, they review several big cases on tariffs, Lisa Cook, and cuts to foreign aid.Further reading: Here is Judge Thomas T.

Pop & Politics: Trump Fights Back, Dems Unravel, and the Left Loses It!
Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Code Switching Clay and Buck dive into the political and cultural landscape shaping the first fall of the Trump 2.0 presidency, highlighting the ongoing resistance from federal judges against the administration’s policies. The hosts criticize what they describe as partisan judicial activism, particularly rulings that attempt to block President Trump’s constitutional authority—such as deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles during immigration-related unrest. They emphasize how these decisions are often overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, reinforcing Trump’s legal standing. The show also covers a controversial case involving 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children who were blocked from being reunited with their families in Guatemala by a federal judge. Clay and Buck frame this as an example of how judicial overreach is obstructing humanitarian efforts and immigration reform under Trump 2.0. Call in the Guard! A deep dive into the escalating crisis of urban crime in America, with a sharp focus on cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Memphis. They highlight the Trump administration’s proactive stance on law and order, praising President Trump’s efforts to reduce violent crime and carjackings while exposing the political resistance from Democrat leaders who, they argue, are failing to protect their constituents. The conversation centers around the staggering statistic that 50 people were shot in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, prompting Clay and Buck to question why Democratic officials like Mayor Brandon Johnson oppose federal assistance, including National Guard deployment, to restore safety. They contrast Johnson’s slogan-heavy rhetoric with more pragmatic voices like Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, who surprisingly called for bipartisan cooperation with Trump to address crime in Illinois. The hosts also revisit the controversial remarks of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who suggested that increased policing would lead to too many arrests of black and brown individuals. Clay and Buck challenge this logic, emphasizing that the real victims of unchecked crime are often minorities living in high-crime neighborhoods. They argue that the true measure of safety is whether women and children can walk or jog freely in their communities without fear. Commie Mamdani The New York City mayoral race, scrutinizing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist. They dissect the New York Times’ attempt to downplay his ideology and warn that his proposed policies—like government-run grocery stores—could devastate the city’s economy and infrastructure. The hosts debate whether Mamdani is a true ideologue or simply an inexperienced politician who may struggle to implement his radical agenda. The segment also includes reflections on past NYC mayors like Rudy Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill de Blasio, comparing their leadership styles and impact on crime. Clay and Buck argue that Bloomberg’s business acumen and Giuliani’s law enforcement background made them effective leaders, while de Blasio’s progressive policies contributed to the city’s decline. Doesn't Have to be This Way Clay and Buck scrutinize Chicago’s violent crime epidemic, where Governor JB Pritzker dodges questions about the city’s safety following a weekend of 54 shootings and 7 deaths. Clay and Buck argue that President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has proven effective, and they challenge Democrats to explain their resistance to similar measures in cities like Memphis, St. Louis, and New Orleans. The hosts dissect Mayor Brandon Johnson’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his call for citizens to “defend the land” against Trump’s law enforcement efforts. Clay and Buck criticize this as dangerous and historically inaccurate, noting that Chicago was not built by slaves or indigenous people, and that invoking such narratives undermines real solutions to crime. They emphasize the psychological deterrent effect of visible law enforcement and the success of plainclothes policing units in cities like New York. The conversation shifts to the broader political implications of Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, highlighting how Democrats are increasingly boxed into defending the indefensible. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s actions are saving lives, even if those lives can’t be individually identified, and they call out the hypocrisy of Democrats who welcomed National Guard troops during COVID but now oppose them for public safety.

Military to build vertical wind tunnel for Army paratrooper training The Army Command Headquarters is proposing to spend over 510 million NT in the coming years to build a vertical wind tunnel for paratrooper training. That's according to a budget proposal that recently became public. That amount would be spent from 2026 to 2028 to construct a building to house the wind tunnel, as stated in the budget proposal sent to lawmakers for approval last week. The Army says, the facility is important to train paratroopers on free fall conditions in a controlled environment.

Indonesia Revokes Lawmakers' Perks Amid Protests Indonesia's president has pledged to revoke lawmakers' perks, including a $3,000 housing allowance, to ease public anger after protests left six dead. On Sunday, Prabowo Subianto announced the decision alongside leaders of eight political parties in Jakarta. He said that by today, certain allowances will be scrapped and overseas trips suspended. Five days of protests began in Jakarta on Monday last week, sparked by reports that all 580 lawmakers receive a monthly housing allowance of $3,075 US dollars in addition to their salaries. The allowance, introduced last year, is almost 10 times the Jakarta minimum wage. Critics argue the new allowance is not only excessive (過多) but also insensitive (未意識到(他人感受)的) at a time when most people are grappling (努力解決) with soaring living costs and taxes and rising unemployment. The unrest intensified after the death of a ride-hailing driver during a rally. Subianto stated that police are investigating the incident and emphasized the importance of peaceful expression.

Lathan Gil delivers the news on Donald Trump wanting to get rid of Mail-In ballots, a federal judge blocking the deportation of Guatemalan children, and a former FBI specialist having Parkinsons disease. On 9/1/2025.
AP correspondent Julie Walker reports that a judge is barring the government from sending Guatemalan children back, for now.
Jon Herold wraps up the week with sharp analysis and a touch of humor, starting with gold's historic surge as foreign banks now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries for the first time since 1996. He unpacks Trump's latest executive actions, including making federal architecture “beautiful again,” exempting national security agencies from collective bargaining, and cutting off federal grants for lobbying. The big headline is Trump's use of a rare “pocket rescission” to cancel nearly $5 billion in foreign aid, a move that hasn't been attempted since 1977. Herold also covers Trump canceling Kamala Harris's Secret Service protection, deporting Guatemalan children, and canceling offshore wind subsidies. RFK Jr.'s investigation into SSRIs and hormone treatments in connection with transgender school shooters sparks further debate, while chatter about JD Vance as Trump's successor draws skepticism. Packed with cultural asides, community updates, and even a Soft Disclosure shout-out, this episode blends heavy policy with Badlands banter.
Are your "worry dolls" bringing you peace or opening doors to the enemy? Are these Guatemalan worry dolls a child's comfort or a gateway to spiritual attack? In today's episode of the Vertical Relationship Show, Melia exposes the dark side and a real experience she encountered in bringing these innocent-looking dolls into her home. Worry dolls are connected to the Maya Princess, Ixpucane, connected to a sun god, and are used as a tool for children to offload anxieties, fears, and nightmares. While their intended purpose is to alleviate worry – children whisper their problems to the dolls and place them under their pillows for help ... a darker side, often overlooked!

What gives us the courage to follow a path when no one else understands it?In this episode, you'll meet Susanne, who left Switzerland for the Guatemalan jungle and chose a way of life most would find unthinkable. She speaks about the strength that comes from listening deeply — to the body, to nature, to the quiet signals of life that guide us forward.Her story touches on healing, trust, parenting, and simplicity, but also on fear, doubt, and the invisible work of staying true when everything around you suggests otherwise.This isn't a tale of certainty. It's an invitation to notice what nourishes you, what scatters you, and how life changes when we stop trying to control it.About the PodcastColors of Awakening was born in the aftermath of a breaking point. In 2020, a Dark Night of the soul unraveled the life I thought I knew — and with it came a call I could no longer ignore.A year later, I left everything behind not out of certainty, but out of a fragile hope that something might still meet me on the road. I began a journey through the Americas to live closer to nature and to what feels true. Glen and his dog, Zill, joined in, making us a 4 year long trio on the road so far.This podcast grows out of that path of transformation: a wandering that is at once geographical and spiritual, filled with encounters, doubts, unexpected teachers, and moments of grace. It is not a tale of certainty but of being reshaped by what we meet, and of learning — slowly, painfully, sometimes beautifully — how to trust life even, or maybe especially, when it refuses to let us stay the same.Genevievewww.colorsofawakening.comAll our links here: https://linktr.ee/ColorsOfAwakeningThanks for listening!

Kicking off the new season with the spirited Adria Arjona for what was, incredibly, her first solo podcast ever. As someone whose face is literally on billboards outside my place currently, I found this fact both shocking and oddly kismet. It's a special treat to share this unexpected and refreshing punk rock side of her with you all. What you'll discover about Adria is that beyond being gorgeous – which, obviously – she's a dynamic, perceptive citizen of the world with a penchant for doing "bad things." And I mean that in the best possible way. She's the kind of person who makes you immediately start plotting how to become her best friend. Born in Puerto Rico, half Guatemalan, raised in Mexico, and shaped by a nomadic childhood following her father Ricardo Arjona on tour – one of the best-selling Latin American artists of all time – Adria learned early that home isn't a place, it's found in people and rituals. A lesson that serves her well in an industry that keeps her constantly moving between London, LA, and everywhere in between. There are SO many gems here, but a few that really stayed with me is how selling merch on her dad's tours taught her the art of hustling, a career-changing audition failure, and how producing has changed her as an actor for the better.

Mabe Fratti is everywhere these days, and for good reason. The Guatemalan-born, Mexico City-based cellist, vocalist, and composer has built a formidable reputation for creating music that seamlessly blurs between experimental pop and improvisation.We got into one, exploring Mabe's journey from her religious upbringing in Guatemala to becoming a consistently innovative artist. She candidly shares how playing improvisational cello in a 5,000-capacity neo-Pentecostal church connected her to "the spiritual part of music" – an experience that would shape her artistic approach for years to come. When a Goethe Institute residency brought her to Mexico City, she discovered free improvisation that felt "like being a child again," setting her on a path of constant musical exploration.Mabe talks about embracing vulnerability and uncertainty. Rather than pursuing a signature sound, she approaches each project with different visions – from her collaborative work with Amor Muere and Titanic to her solo albums. "I am the one who changes my mind very fast," she admits, discussing how her latest album title "Sentir Que No Sabes" (Feel Like You Don't Know) reflects her comfort with constant evolution.Throughout our discussion, Mabe offers wisdom on navigating creative doubts through playing, meaningful conversations, and continuous learning. As she puts it: "If I feel doubt in this, why not explore that doubt through learning?" Mabe's new album with Titanic, "Hagen" is available from September 5th Check it out on BandcampListen to Mabe Fratti's music on BandcampFollow Mabe Fratti on Instagram: @mabefrattiIf you enjoy Lost and Sound and want to help keep it thriving, the best way to support is simple: subscribe, leave a rating, and write a quick review on your favourite podcast platform.
