President Donald Trump wants to bring additional drug manufacturing to the United States and has threatened tariffs on imported medicine. The U.S. relies heavily on imports for low-cost generics, and building up domestic supply chain capacity could be tricky. We'll map out drug manufacturing and explore what it'd take to reshore drug supplies. But first: oil giants are eager to drill off the coast of Guyana, and the boss of an obscure regulatory agency is stepping down.

This week, I'm joined once again by travel writer, YouTuber, and author Dave Seminara to explore a country rarely found on bucket lists — Suriname. Tucked between Guyana and French Guiana on South America's northern coast, this former Dutch colony is bursting with untouched jungle, rich multicultural heritage, and wildly underrated adventure experiences.Dave recently spent eight days solo travelling across Suriname, from the capital, Paramaribo, to the remote Maroon villages deep in the rainforest. He shares everything — how to get there, where to stay, why the Upper Suriname River is a must-do journey, and why it may just be the friendliest country in the world.We dive into:The colonial history and ethnic diversity that make Suriname one of the most culturally layered countries in the AmericasUnique cultural practices like polygamy and menstruation houses in Maroon communitiesWhy Suriname is known as the most Asian country outside Asia and the most African country outside AfricaIncredible food: from roti to Indonesian cuisine — and why Suriname is a hidden foodie destinationThe realities of getting around Suriname, including limited flights, overland routes, and remote access pointsVisiting remote villages via dugout canoe and navigating rivers that cut through untouched rainforestWhy Paramaribo is worth a short visit — plus tips on markets, accommodation, and cultural etiquetteAn honest take on safety, infrastructure, friendliness, and why the locals are genuinely curious about travellersThis episode is full of inspiration for anyone dreaming of a more authentic, remote, and meaningful travel experience. Dave's storytelling is full of insight, humour, and practical tips — and by the end, you might be planning your own trip to Suriname.Thanks to Dave for coming on again, and he is welcome back anytime, as he is a much-loved guest on the podcast.

Interview with Dan Noone, CEO of G2 Goldfields Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gold-industry-leaders-confident-in-multi-year-bull-market-cycle-7179Recording date: 17th July 2025G2 Goldfields (TSX: GTWO) has emerged as a compelling takeover target following exceptional drilling results at its New Oko Discovery in Guyana and the strategic exit of AngloGold Ashanti from its 15% shareholding. The company's transformative drill results and cleared acquisition path have positioned it for a competitive sale process in Q4 2025.The New Oko Discovery, located 9 kilometers north of existing resources, has delivered some of the region's best drill results, with hole AMD30 intersecting 60 meters at 5.9 g/t Au, including a spectacular 22.5-meter section grading 9.3 g/t Au. These high-grade intersections demonstrate significant potential for underground mining scenarios and have substantially enhanced the company's resource profile.G2's combined resource base now stands at 3.1 million ounces at 3 grams per tonne across multiple zones. The company is targeting its first preliminary economic assessment (PEA) in Q4 2025, with internal studies suggesting the project could support approximately 350,000 ounces annual production, bringing it within acquisition criteria for most major gold companies.The recent disposal of AngloGold Ashanti's stake removes what many potential acquirers viewed as a blocking position. CEO Dan Noone noted that "having a corporate in there 15% is a bit of a double-edged sword," as other companies perceived it as an obstacle to transactions. The shares were successfully placed with two major European investors, demonstrating strong institutional interest.Management maintains strict discipline regarding strategic direction, planning to avoid the "builder trap" where exploration companies attempt project development themselves. The company's strategy centers on its core competency in exploration and discovery, with plans to initiate a competitive bidding process following PEA completion.G2's positioning aligns with broader gold sector consolidation trends, as major producers seek high-grade, near-term development opportunities in stable jurisdictions. The company's disciplined approach to reaching PEA stage before sale initiation positions it to capitalize on premium valuations driven by competitive acquisition dynamics.View G2 Goldfields' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/g2-goldfieldsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Oliver White is a world-renowned fly fishing guide, lodge owner, entrepreneur, and conservationist whose career bridges wild rivers and Wall Street. He began his guiding journey in college after a skiing injury, quickly developing a reputation as a skilled and passionate angler. This passion led him from the rivers of North Carolina to international waters in Argentina and the Bahamas. Along the way, a chance encounter with hedge fund manager Bill Ackman opened the door to a brief but formative stint in finance, sharpening White's business acumen and laying the groundwork for his future as a fishing industry entrepreneur. In 2008, White channeled that experience into building Abaco Lodge in the Bahamas, followed by partnerships in other elite destinations like South Fork Lodge in Idaho, which he co-owns with late-night host Jimmy Kimmel. His lodges have become known not only for their world-class fishing but also for their immersive guest experiences and commitment to sustainability. White continues to guide and host trips around the world, sharing his expertise with a growing community of anglers while advocating for the health of the ecosystems they explore. A dedicated conservationist, White co-founded Indifly, a nonprofit that empowers Indigenous communities through sustainable fly fishing tourism. The organization has helped transform remote villages like Rewa in Guyana into thriving ecotourism hubs, ensuring local control and environmental stewardship. In recognition of his contributions to angling, conservation, and community development, White was recently honored with the 2025 Heritage Award by the American Museum of Fly Fishing—the highest distinction the museum bestows. His life reflects a rare blend of adventure, entrepreneurship, and social impact.

Mark Collett remembers a time when many Newfoundlanders and Labradorians left the province in search of work, including himself. But today, as the CEO of St.John's-based Crosbie Group, he sees a different story unfolding. “Certainly for the first 30 years of my life, I think we were probably hanging our head a little bit low,” he tells Goldy Hyder on the Speaking of Business podcast. “But I think we started to pump our chest out when things really started to move ahead in the oil industry.”Crosbie Group, a fourth-generation family business, plays a central role in the energy, marine and real estate sectors in Canada, the United States and Guyana. Collett has seen firsthand how quickly other countries have moved ahead with energy projects, while those in Canada have stalled.  “From 2014 to 2018, there were over $4 billion in commitments to explore offshore Newfoundland and Labrador,” he notes. “Since 2018, there's been just $300 million.”He attributes much of that slowdown to regulatory uncertainty. Despite the challenges, he believes the tide may be turning. “We need to seize the moment, seize the day,” he urges. “We have a very willing sentiment toward the industry right now.”For Collett, the conversation isn't just about energy, it's about Canada's future. “We spend an awful lot of time talking about our potential and tomorrow,” he says. “I'm personally at a place where I want to see things happening and happening now.”

CardioNerds (Dr. Claire Cambron and Dr. Rawan Amir) join Dr. Ayan Purkayastha, Dr. David Song, and Dr. Justin Wang from NewYork-Presbyterian Queens for an afternoon of hot pot in downtown Flushing. They discuss a case of congenital heart disease presenting in adulthood. Expert commentary is provided by Dr. Su Yuan, and audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Julia Marques Fernandes. A 53-year-old woman with a past medical history of hypertension visiting from Guyana presented with 2 days of chest pain. EKG showed dominant R wave in V1 with precordial T wave inversions. Troponin levels were normal, however she was started on therapeutic heparin with plan for left heart catheterization. Her chest X-ray revealed dextrocardia and echocardiogram was suspicious for the systemic ventricle being the morphologic right ventricle with reduced systolic function and the pulmonic ventricle being the morphologic left ventricle. Patient underwent coronary CT angiography which confirmed diagnosis of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) as well as minimal non-obstructive coronary artery disease. Her chest pain spontaneously improved and catheterization was deferred. Patient opted to follow with a congenital specialist back in her home country upon discharge.   US Cardiology Review is now the official journal of CardioNerds! Submit your manuscript here.

Pearls- A Case of Congenital Heart Disease Presenting in Adulthood Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries (CCTGA) is a rare and unique structural heart disease which presents as an isolated combination of atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance resulting in physiologically corrected blood flow.   CCTGA occurs due to L looping of the embryologic heart tube. As a result, the morphologic right ventricle outflows into the systemic circulation, and the morphologic left ventricle outflows into the pulmonary circulation.   CCTGA is frequently associated with ventricular septal defects, pulmonic stenosis, tricuspid valve abnormalities and dextrocardia.   CCTGA is often asymptomatic in childhood and can present later in adulthood with symptoms of morphologic right ventricular failure, tricuspid regurgitation, or cardiac arrhythmias.   Systemic atrioventricular valve (SAVV) intervention can be a valuable option for treating right ventricular failure and degeneration of the morphologic tricuspid valve.  notes- A Case of Congenital Heart Disease Presenting in Adulthood Notes were drafted by Ayan Purkayastha.  What is the pathogenesis of Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries?   Occurs due to disorders in the development of the primary cardiac tube   Bulboventricular part of the primary heart forms a left-sided loop instead of right-sided loop, leading to the normally located atria being connected to morphologically incompatible ventricles   This is accompanied by abnormal torsion of the aortopulmonary septum (transposition of the great vessels)   As a result, there is ‘physiologic correction' of blood flow. Non-oxygenated blood flows into the right atrium and through the mitral valve into the morphologic left ventricle, which pumps blood into the pulmonary artery. Oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins flows into the left atrium and through the tricuspid valve to the morphologic right ventricle, which pumps blood to the aorta. Compared with standard anatomy, the flow of blood is appropriate, but it is going through the incorrect ventricle on both sides.  Frequent conditions associated with CCTGA include VSD, pulmonic stenosis and dextrocardia  

TOM CLANCY LINE OF DEMARCATION starts with the destruction of a US Coast Guard cutter and the loss of her entire crew. But the USCG Claiborne was on an innocuous mission to open a sea lane between an oil field off the coast of South America and the refineries of southern Louisiana. The destruction of the ship—tragic as it is—won't stop that mission from continuing.  So, who would sacrifice twenty-two men and women just to slow down the plan? That's the question plaguing Jack, who is in Guyana working on a deal to get his company, Hendley Associates, in on the ground floor of this new discovery.  But Russia's Wagner Group and a pack of Venezuelan narco-terrorists have other ideas—and will risk war with the United States to see them through. It's up to Jack to identify the killers before they draw a bead on him . . . but how can he do that when the line of demarcation between friend and foe is constantly shifting?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Don't Drink The Kool Aid!They didn't drink the Kool-Aid willingly. They were executed in the largest CIA mind control experiment ever conducted on American soil. November 18, 1978. The world was told that 918 people committed "revolutionary suicide" in the jungles of Guyana. What they didn't tell you is that most of those people were murdered—shot in the back, injected with poison, forced at gunpoint to watch their children die first. This wasn't a religious tragedy. This was a government operation that went catastrophically wrong.You've been fed the lie for 45 years. The story of a deranged cult leader who convinced his followers to kill themselves for their beliefs. But Jim Jones wasn't just a madman—he was a CIA asset running the most sophisticated mind control operation in American history, and when he threatened to expose his handlers, they silenced him and everyone who could testify to the truth.The evidence they tried to bury tells a different story. A story of government-sponsored psychological warfare, pharmaceutical mind control experiments, and systematic torture designed to break human consciousness and rebuild it from scratch. Jonestown wasn't a commune—it was a concentration camp disguised as paradise.In this horrifying exposé, we reveal how the CIA used the People's Temple as cover for MKULTRA experiments on American citizens. How they recruited Jones through military intelligence networks and funded his operation through government black budgets. How they used isolation, sleep deprivation, pharmaceutical cocktails, and psychological torture to create the perfect subjects for mWe'll expose the government connections that were scrubbed from official records. How Jones received unexplained funding from mysterious sources. Why Jonestown had sophisticated communication equipment that connected directly to intelligence agencies. How the compound was designed like a prison camp with guard towers, armed security, and escape-proof barriers.ind control testing.Most chilling of all: the medical evidence proves most victims were murdered, not suicides. Injection marks where there should be none. Gunshot wounds in the backs of fleeing victims. Children who were forcibly poisoned while parents watched helplessly. Bodies arranged in patterns that suggested systematic execution, not mass suicide.They called it the "White Night"—but it was really the final phase of a mind control experiment that had spiraled completely out of control. When Jones became unstable and threatened to expose the CIA's involvement, they activated the termination protocol. Everyone who knew the truth had to die.The survivors' testimonies were suppressed. The medical evidence was classified. The government connections were buried in redacted files. They needed the world to believe it was religious fanaticism, not government-sponsored murder, because the truth would have exposed decades of illegal human experimentation.But here's what terrifies them most: people like you who refuse to accept their sanitized version of mass murder. Who understand that when 918 Americans die under mysterious circumstances, someone needs to be held accountable—and it wasn't just Jim Jones. The real question isn't how 918 people could be convinced to kill themselves. The real question is how the American government could murder 918 of its own citizens and convince the world it was suicide. Jonestown wasn't the end of their mind control experiments—it was proof of concept. It showed them exactly how far they could push human psychological manipulation before total system breakdown. And the lessons they learned in that jungle laboratory have been applied to populations around the world ever since.Are you ready to learn the truth about the largest mass murder in American history? Because what really happened in Jonestown will shatter everything you thought you knew about government accountability and media complicity. WARNING: This episode contains disturbing evidence of government-sponsored mass murder disguised as religious suicide. The truth about CIA involvement in the Jonestown massacre may fundamentally alter your understanding of how far intelligence agencies will go to protect their secrets.

Interview with Elaine Ellingham, President & CEO of Omai Gold Mines Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/omai-gold-mines-tsxvomg-drill-program-reveals-high-grade-gold-6891Recording date: 27th June 2025Omai Gold Mines (TSXV:OMG) is advancing the development of what was once South America's largest primary gold producer, leveraging significant resource expansion and high-grade discoveries to transform the economics of the historic Guyana operation. The company has established a substantial foundation with 2 million ounces indicated and 2.3 million inferred resources, while 30,000 meters of additional drilling since the last estimate positions the project for significant resource growth.The most compelling development has been the discovery of high-grade zones that substantially exceed historical production grades. Recent drilling has intersected 4.5 g/t over 57 meters and 3.16 g/t over 68 meters, representing a dramatic improvement over the historical reconciled grade of 1.67 g/t. CEO Elaine Ellingham characterized these discoveries as "having a mine within your mine," with systematic grade increases at depth that could fundamentally improve project economics.Omai's dual development strategy maximizes resource value through both open-pit mining of the Wenot shear deposit and underground mining of the Gilt Creek deposit. Production capacity could scale from the previous 9,000 tons per day assumption to as high as 15,000 tons per day, supported by the expanded resource base and brownfield infrastructure advantages.The company benefits from significant regulatory progress, having received an interim environmental permit within six months of completing its preliminary economic assessment. The brownfield status provides cleared environmental conditions and established community support, while proximity to major transportation corridors reduces development costs.With $22 million in cash and recent financing demonstrating strong market confidence, Omai is well-positioned for its near-term catalysts. The updated resource estimate is expected within 6-8 weeks, followed by an enhanced preliminary economic assessment incorporating both deposits and higher throughput scenarios. Trading up 600% since early 2024, the company represents compelling exposure to large-scale gold development in a mining-friendly jurisdiction during a favorable precious metals environment.View Omai Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/omai-gold-minesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

 "The Final Sermon: How Jim Jones Murdered 918 Souls in Paradise""Don't be afraid to die." Those were the last words 276 children heard before Jim Jones forced them to drink cyanide-laced Flavor Aid in the jungle hell he called paradise. This is the most horrifying mass murder-suicide in human history – 918 people dead in a single afternoon, including entire families who watched their babies convulse and die before drinking the poison themselves. Jones didn't just lead a cult; he built a death camp in the middle of nowhere, trapping his followers in a tropical prison where escape meant death and obedience meant drinking poison. We'll expose the chilling audio recording of the final death ritual, where Jones's voice grows more manic as children scream in the background and parents beg for their lives. From the early days of racial integration that made Jones a hero to the paranoid descent into madness that turned Jonestown into a concentration camp, discover how one man's messiah complex became the blueprint for mass murder. Featuring the infamous "death tape" that captured the final moments, survivor testimonies from those who escaped the jungle nightmare, and leaked government documents that reveal how politicians ignored warning signs for years. This episode exposes the ultimate betrayal – how a man who promised salvation delivered damnation, turning faith into a weapon of mass destruction that annihilated nearly a thousand innocent souls in the name of revolutionary suicide.

Hew Locke talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Locke was born in 1959 in Edinburgh, UK, to the artists Donald and Leila Locke. The family sailed from the UK to Guyana in 1966 and Hew was based there until 1980. He returned to the UK to study art in 1980 and now lives in London. Over more than three decades, Locke has explored a panoply of imagery about nationhood, culture and power. Since he was a child growing up in postcolonial Guyana, he has had a lifelong interest in the symbols nations choose to reflect themselves, the objects they acquire to enrich their cultures, and the institutions that project these values into the world. In sculpture and installation, photography, drawing and textiles, he has created arresting tableaux whose layers of rich materiality, fusing found and everyday objects with finely drawn and crafted elements, foreground nuance and complexity. He reflects the shifting nature of significance and meaning according to time, place and the collective values and subjectivities of his audience. He discusses his desire for complexity without dispensing with formal rigour and visual impact. He reflects on the different forms of composition necessitated by his approach, and his consistent use of cardboard as a material. He discusses the equal influence of his parents on his work, the tutorial with Paula Rego that led to a complete change in the direction of his work, and the impact of seeing Hans Haacke's celebrated German pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 1993. Plus, he gives insight into life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Hew Locke, Gilt, Compton Verney, 5 July-July 2027; Hew Locke: Passages, Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, US, 2 October-11 January 2026; Armada, Newlyn Art Gallery, UK, 1 November; Cargoes, King Edward Memorial Park, opening September.

Defining Key Terms & Unsettling MythsWhat is the Caribbean?What it is not:Not simply “a group of islands surrounded by the Caribbean Sea.”That colonial compass would erase Belize, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana.The Caribbean is not just geography — it's history, identity, and ideology.A Construct, An Invention:Ian Meeks and Norman Girvan argue the Caribbean is an invention, molded by the European gaze since 1492.The so-called “discovery” was really colonial construction — cultural erasure dressed as exploration.The Socio-Political Caribbean:Social scientists ask: In whose interest is society designed?Whose narrative dominates?Often, the Caribbean's story has been told through the lens of its colonizers — not its people.Economic Caribbean – A Dependent Capitalist Model:According to Neoliberalism (2021) and the "Washington Consensus", Caribbean economies were shaped to serve external interests.Ramesh Ramsaran: Structural Adjustment transferred power from local to global hands — a feature of life in the Global South.These are the legacies of debt, austerity, and manufactured dependency.Global South vs Global North:New language, same old hierarchies.The “Global South” replaces “Third World” — a more palatable term, but still denotes marginalization.2. A People in Paradox: Race, Identity & AgencyThe Problem of the Caribbean is the Problem of the Black and Brown PositionWherever Black or Brown bodies are found — so too is systemic exclusion.Not due to essence, but to constructed inferiority.Colonization as Psychological Violence:Fanon: Colonization turns man against himself.Du Bois: The Black soul peers through a veil, always asking: “Am I enough?”Morrison: We are told to strive toward whiteness — only to find we can never truly arrive.Depersonalization & Loss of Agency:Colonialism stripped humanity. The enslaved weren't just shackled in body — but in being.This leads to malady: acting against our own interests.Afrocentricity vs Eurocentricity:Afrocentricity: a way of seeing.Eurocentricity: the only way of seeing.The former offers liberation. The latter demands assimilation.Diaspora Realities:Caribbean immigrants are often seen as threats cloaked in exoticism — "two sharp teeth," as you wrote.Their potential is feared, their labor exploited.Kenneth Clark's “Dark Ghettoes”:Ghettoes aren't just places — they are conditions.Whether in Philly or Kingston, Harlem or Port of Spain, these spaces reflect economic colonization.Externally: Poor housing, crime, disease.Internally: Apathy, self-loathing, compensatory bravado.3. Postcolonialism – Not the End, But the EchoPostcolonial ≠ Post-ColonizationFanon in Black Skin, White Masks: Black and White locked in a tragic performance — each role scripted by Empire.In Wretched of the Earth: Freedom is radical; it requires rupture, not reform.The Paradox of Independence:Haiti and Cuba led revolutions — and were punished for their audacity.Independence does not equal inclusion.4. Center vs Periphery — Who Gets to Speak?Homi Bhabha's Lens:The center is the mainstream — the dominant culture, the "norm."The periphery is where African spirituality, literature, and lifeways have been cast.In the Caribbean, this leads to self-scorn: bleaching skin, abandoning roots, ridiculing Revivalists or Rastafari.5. Supplementary Content for Today's SessionReading & Discussion: CLR James – The Black JacobinsCLR James (a Trini) told the story of Haitian revolutionaries, but through a European framework.His education gave him tools, but not always the right lens.We question: Was this truly “history from below?”By Rev.

Doc Jones, private activist resource investor and influencer on Ceo.ca and X/Twitter, joins us for his outlook on the precious metals, critical minerals, and energy sector and the related resource stocks he is heavily positioned in his portfolio, that have had significant newsflow in the recent past towards development of their projects.   We start off getting the key macroeconomic factors that have him bullish on both gold and silver, and why he believes their pricing moves to the upside over this year can be maintained and continue to reach higher levels.   We review the newsflow and recent milestones from Omai Gold Mines (TSXV: OMG) (OTCQB: OMGGF), and the anticipated value drivers for 2025 in this gold exploration and development company operating in Guyana. He focuses in on drilling at both Wenot and Gilt Creek, and the updated resource estimate and combined economic study as coming catalysts. With regards to silver and gold exposure, he has gotten positioned in Excellon Resources Inc. (TSXV: EXN) (OTC: EXNRF) due to their recent acquisition of the past producing Mallay Silver Mine in Peru, to move it back into production. The Company is also advancing a portfolio of gold, silver and base metals assets including the Kilgore Project, an advanced gold exploration project in Idaho that has compelling economics at today's PM prices.   Shifting over to critical minerals, Doc Jones highlights his long-standing interest and key portfolio position in Magna Mining (TSX.V: NICU) (OTCQB: MGMNF), which has now moved into copper production, with solid nickel and PGM co-credits at their McCreedy West Mine in Sudbury, Ontario.  Another key portfolio position in the critical minerals with copper, zinc, gold, and silver is Emerita Resources (TSX.V: EMO) (OTCQB: EMOTF).  The company has had continued encouraging polymetallic metallurgical results and successful exploration expanding in mineralization in multiple areas at their flagship IBW Project. He also outlined that the pending legal proceedings on the Aznalcollar zinc-lead-silver Project as another potential value driver.   Wrapping up we shifted over to traditional energy getting his outlook on both oil and natural gas, but why he is favoring investing in Canadian nat gas companies like Peyto Exploration & Development Corp. (TSX: PEY) and Birchcliff Energy Ltd. (TSX: BIR) due to the uptick in underlying natural gas prices he is anticipating in the year to come.   He goes on to highlight the benefits of picking up energy stocks that pay investors good dividends while they are waiting for higher eventual equity prices.     *In full disclosure, Doc Jones holds a position in these companies discussed at the time of this recording, but is not compensated by any company to market them.  These are simply his views and opinions as to why he likes investing in them, but this is not investment advice.      Click here to follow Doc Jones on Ceo.ca   Click here to follow Doc Jones on X/Twitter

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch where they bemoan the lack of 'serious people' in prominent positions. Those people include Terri Moran whose savage X post cost him his job at ABC, DNI director Tulsi Gabbard, who seems tired of being in the background, and Tennessee Rep. Mark Green who has the audacity to resign his position for an alleged business venture in Guyana. First, they laugh over Terry Moran's vitriolic X post, claiming Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and President Trump to be 'world class haters' and find nourishment by "eating their hate." Quite possibly the result of an evening of booze, this post could have been explained away with a simple apology, but Moran refuses to recant. Jim wonders if ABC is grateful for a reason to oust a boring reporter that costs them half a million dollars a year. Next, they dissect Tulsi Gabbard's dramatic YouTube warning about nuclear war. Gabbard insists we're closer than ever to nuclear annihilation, apparently forgetting the Cold War and Cuban Missile Crisis. Jim is skeptical, especially considering the recent war in Ukraine and Russia where nuclear weapons have not yet been used. He also says that Gabbard has a direct link to speak with the president about such concerns, so speaking out publicly suggests she is bored of working behind the scenes. Last, they are aghast at the resignation of Tennessee Rep. Mark Green for the sake of a private sector opportunity. Greg is enraged by any public official who would leave office for any reason other than health and family reasons or scandal. Green leaving for an elusive business venture in Guyana of all places has both Jim and Greg immensely irritated. Please visit our great sponsors:Talk it out with Betterhelp.

El partido de gobierno en Venezuela alcanzó una mayoría absoluta de 253 escaños en las elecciones legislativas, incluyendo a un gobernador y ocho diputados al Parlamento en la rica región del Esequibo que disputa con Guyana.

Repasamos lo más destacado de la semana con nuestra analista externa M.ª Dolores Albiac, con quien hablamos de las elecciones regionales de Venezuela, donde el chavismo ha ganado en 23 estados mientras la oposición cuestiona resultados por la baja participación, y en medio, el nuevo desafío entre Venezuela y Guyana por haber elegido gobernador en Esequibo; también analizamos la situación en México con el hallazgo de un nuevo rancho con 17 cuerpos mientras los ciudadanos afrontan este domingo elecciones para elegir a jueces y magistrados; y terminamos hablando de Panamá, donde la huelga de hace un mes de los trabajadores de la bananera Chiquita en protesta por las políticas sociales del presidente Raúl Mulino ha derivado en el despido de 5000 de ellos y al Estado de emergencia en la región. Después, Nico Gómez nos habla de algunos reclamos turísticos de Puerto Rico. Escuchar audio

La semana pasada el Gobierno de Venezuela liberó a un veterano de la Fuerza Aérea de Estados Unidos que estaba encarcelado y se lo entregó a las autoridades estadounidenses en Antigua y Barbuda. Con esta medida Nicolás Maduro espera que mejoren las relaciones bilaterales y, sobre todo, que Donald Trump permita que las compañías petroleras occidentales continúen operando en el país. El ex militar liberado, Joseph St. Clair, fue arrestado por las fuerzas de seguridad venezolanas en octubre cerca de la frontera con Colombia cuando viajaba por aquella zona junto a unos amigos. El 3 de marzo, el departamento de Estado reclamó su liberación inmediata, pero el régimen se los había guardado como moneda de cambio. Con esto Maduro pretende mostrarse cooperativo, pero no es lo único que está haciendo para congraciarse con la Casa Blanca. En los últimos tres meses, ha aceptado sin rechistar un flujo constante de vuelos de deportación desde Estados Unidos y Honduras. A principios de este mes, cinco activistas del equipo de María Corina Machado, refugiados desde el año pasado en la embajada argentina en Caracas, consiguieron abandonar el país y reaparecieron en Washington, donde ofrecieron una rueda de prensa. Maduro encajó el golpe y se está mostrando dispuesto a seguir liberando gente a cambio de que Trump sea clemente con él. Quiere sacar el máximo partido a esa diplomacia de los rehenes que los cautivos de la embajada denunciaban hace sólo unos días. El hecho es que Trump no termina de adoptar una política clara respecto a Venezuela. Está dando una de cal y otra de arena. En febrero se revocó la licencia de Chevron para producir y exportar petróleo venezolano e impuso aranceles a los países que importen crudo proveniente de Venezuela. Un revés tras otro que complica las finanzas del régimen, pero que no le supone ni mucho menos una amenaza existencial. Para compensarlo ha despachado para el Caribe a Richard Grenell como enviado presidencial con la orden de establecer negociaciones discretas con el régimen chavista. En paralelo a estas maniobras internacionales, este domingo se celebraron elecciones regionales, unos comicios en los que no votó casi nadie (la abstención fue del 85%) y que el oficialismo ganó de calle. En los municipios cercanos a Guyana se organizó además una absurda farsa. Se presentaron listas y candidatos para representar a la Guayana Esequiba, una región del país vecino que Maduro reclama como propia. Para la oposición venezolana esta letanía de acontecimientos es como el día de la marmota. Todo se repite de forma incansable y sin que los venezolanos puedan hacer nada para impedirlo, salvo abstenerse de participar en los circos electorales que el régimen organiza de forma periódica. Nada parece que vaya a cambiar y las señales que reciben de Estados Unidos no son precisamente esperanzadoras.

Repasamos la actualidad que nos lleva hasta Venezuela, donde el chavismo se otorga la victoria en 23 de los 24 estados del país y además han elegido un gobernador para Esequibo, región rica en petróleo, por la que mantienen disputa Venezuela y Guyana, algo que ha avivado acusaciones entre ambos mandatarios.

Decine di adolescenti israeliani di destra hanno aggredito commercianti e residenti musulmani nella Città Vecchia in occasione del Giorno di Gerusalemme. Nel frattempo, si fa sempre più forte la pressione di alcuni leader occidentali nei confronti di Israele. Ne parliamo con Eleonora Colpo, infermiera di Emergency lavora nella clinica di Al Qarara, nel sud della Striscia di Gaza, Nello Scavo, inviato di Avvenire, e Giuseppe Dentice, analista dell'Osservatorio Mediterraneo (OSMED) dell'Istituto di Studi Politici "S. Pio V".Mentre il presidente venezuelano Nicolas Maduro ha ottenuto ieri una netta vittoria nelle elezioni legislative, il paese è chiamato a votare per la prima il governatore e otto deputati dell'Esequibo, una regione ricca di petrolio rivendicata dal Venezuela che però è amministrata dalla vicina Guyana. Ne parliamo con Roberto Da Rin, inviato de Il Sole 24Ore in America Latina.

Le parti du président vénézuélien s'est largement imposé lors des élections législatives et régionales marquées par l'arrestation de 70 personnes et par un boycott de la majorité de l'opposition. Le PSUV de Nicolas Maduro a obtenu 82,68% des suffrages au scrutin législatif, et remporte 23 des 24 postes de gouverneur. Le PSUV s'impose notamment dans l'Essequibo, territoire du Guyana voisin revendiqué par Caracas. Pour Nicolas Maduro, cette première élection dans une circonscription créée l'an passé marque « la naissance de la nouvelle souveraineté vénézuélienne sur sa Guyana Esequiba ».Au Guyana, le Guyana Chronicle dénonce une « farce électorale illégale » de la part du Venezuela, dont l'intérêt pour l'Essequibo est né « juste après la découverte de gisements de pétrole ». Alors que le Guyana célèbre ce lundi (26 mai 2025) le 59ème anniversaire de son indépendance et se prépare pour des élections générales en septembre, le Stabroeck News appelle quant à lui à l'unité nationale face à la « menace existentielle » vénézuélienne.Au Chili, le quotidien éprouvant des exilés vénézuéliensPoussés à l'exil par la crise économique ou le contexte politique dans leur pays, de nombreux Vénézuéliens vont chercher une vie meilleure au Chili. Sur place, ils doivent néanmoins faire face à des difficultés économiques et administratives, et à un climat de plus en plus hostile, souvent alimenté par les médias. Selon la présidente de l'association vénézuélienne au Chili, Patricia Rojas, « les Vénézuéliens essayent de gommer leur accent, ils s'assimilent pour éviter des situations de discrimination voire de xénophobie. » Le reportage à Santiago de notre correspondante Naïla Derroisné. Haïti : le système de santé décimé par la violence des gangsÀ Port-au-Prince, l'insécurité et la violence des gangs anéantissent le système de santé. Les hôpitaux ferment les uns après les autres et il est quasiment impossible de se faire soigner. Selon l'association médicale haïtienne, le pays est au bord de la catastrophe sanitaire. L'Hôpital Universitaire La Paix, dernier centre hospitalier public en activité dans la capitale haïtienne, reçoit des malades de tout le pays et tente de tenir bon dans des conditions extrêmement difficiles. Notre correspondant Peterson Luxama s'y est rendu. Surinam : pas de majorité claire au ParlementLes résultats du scrutin législatif de dimanche sont très serrés. Selon les résultats préliminaires, le parti de l'actuel président Chan Santokhi, le VHP, obtiendrait 17 sièges, contre 18 pour le NPD de l'ancien président Bouterse, décédé en décembre 2024. La formation du gouvernement et la désignation du prochain président devra donc faire l'objet de négociations. La présidente du NPD Jennifer Simons pourrait devenir la première femme à diriger le pays, note le Suriname Herald. Pluie de recours en amont des élections présidentielle en BolivieNeuf des dix candidats qui ont déposé leur dossier auprès de la justice électorale pour le scrutin présidentiel ont fait l'objet de recours. Une avalanche de requêtes qui freine le processus électoral et pourrait même remettre en cause la tenue de l'élection le 17 août. L'analyse du chercheur en Sciences politiques Franz Flores au micro de notre correspondant Nils Sabin. Visite du roi Charles III au CanadaLe souverain britannique arrive à Ottawa ce lundi pour prononcer le discours du trône pour la réouverture du Parlement, sur invitation du Premier ministre Mark Carney. C'est seulement la troisième fois dans l'histoire canadienne que le chef officiel de l'État (le Canada faisant partie du Commonwealth) se déplace pour un tel événement relève le journal Le Devoir. Pour la Gazette de Montréal, «la visite du roi rassure, même au Québec», territoire où la couronne britannique est pourtant largement vue comme une institution anachronique. «Il ne s'agit pas de renforcer l'appartenance au Commonwealth» souligne le journal, «mais d'envoyer un message fort sur la souveraineté du Canada», au moment où le président américain Donald Trump répète à l'envie sa volonté de faire du Canada le 51ème État américain.

In Guyana's Square of the Revolution, a statue honors Cuffy, an Akan man from West Africa who became a legendary figure.

Tom Clancy Line of Demarcation (A Jack Ryan Jr. Novel) by M.P. Woodward Amazon.com MPwoodward.com The discovery of an oil field off the coast of Guyana plunges Jack Ryan, Jr into a cauldron of lies in the latest entry in this New York Times bestselling series. It starts with the destruction of a US Coast Guard cutter and the loss of her entire crew. But the USCG Claiborne was on an innocuous mission to open a sea lane between an oil field off the coast of Guyana and the refineries of southern Louisiana. The destruction of the ship, tragic as it is, won't stop that mission from continuing. So who would sacrifice twenty-two men and women just to slow down the plan? That's the question plaguing Jack Ryan Jr. He's in Guyana to work a deal to get his company, Hendley Associates, in on the ground floor of this new discovery, but the destruction of the Claiborne and the kidnapping of the Guyanese Interior Minister make it clear that there's a malignant force working to destroy Guyana's oil industry. It's up to Jack to identify the killers before they draw a bead on him, but how can he do that when the line of demarcation between friend and foe is constantly shifting?About the author M.P. Woodward is the NYT bestselling author of the Tom Clancy Jack Ryan Jr. books SHADOW STATE, LINE OF DEMARCATION and the Handler CIA espionage series (THE HANDLER, DEAD DROP) from Penguin Random House.

Collins | Oxford University Museum of Natural History This month, we’re talking about cultivators — women who nurtured, cross-pollinated, experimented, or went to great lengths to better understand and protect the natural world. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn’t help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures. Womanica was created by Liz Kaplan and Jenny Kaplan, executive produced by Jenny Kaplan, and produced by Grace Lynch, Maddy Foley, Brittany Martinez, Edie Allard, Carmen Borca-Carrillo, Taylor Williamson, Sara Schleede, Paloma Moreno Jimenez, Luci Jones, Abbey Delk, Adrien Behn, Alyia Yates, Vanessa Handy, Melia Agudelo, and Joia Putnoi.
