Most of President Donald Trump’s global tariffs were ruled illegal by a federal appeals court that found he exceeded his authority in imposing them, but the judges let the levies stay in place while the case is subject to further review.The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday upheld an earlier ruling by the Court of International Trade that Trump wrongfully invoked an emergency law to issue the tariffs. But the appellate judges sent the case back to the lower court to determine if it applied to everyone affected by tariffs or just the parties involved in the case.Friday’s 7-4 decision by the Federal Circuit could extend the suspense over whether Trump’s tariffs will ultimately stand. The case had been expected to next go to the Supreme Court for a final ruling. The administration could now turn to the justices, who have largely backed the president on other matters. But the White House could also let the Court of International Trade revisit the matter first.“ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT!” Trump said in a post on Truth Social shortly after the decision was issued. For instant reaction and analysis, Bloomberg Balance of Power cohost Joe Mathieu speaks with Harvard Kennedy School's Ash Center Democracy Visiting Fellow Jeanne Sheehan Zaino and Stonecourt Capital Partner Rick Davis, both Bloomberg politics contributors.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Hilary Rantisi speaks with researcher Randa Wahbe about the Israeli policy and practice of holding Palestinian corpses as part of the broader Israeli regime of control over Palestinians. At present, Israel holds more than 740 Palestinian bodies. Randa describes this practice of control, which can be defined as "necropolitics" and/or "necroviolence,"  and which includes desecration of burial sites and cemeteries. She also describes Palestinian practices of defiance and dignity that aim to counter the impact that this particular form of violence has on Palestinian families and communities. FMEP initiated this conversation after FMEP's partner and friend Awdah Hathaleen was murdered on 7/28/25 by an Israeli settler who invaded Awdah's village, Umm al Khair in Masafer Yatta, and Israel then held Awdah's body, refusing to return it to his family for burial. Women in Umm al Khair, including Awdah's mother, widow, and extended family, launched a hunger strike to demand that Israel return his body for burial without conditions. 10 days after the murder, Israel returned Awdah's body and allowed his family to bury him. Read more about Awdah Hathaleen and the events surrounding his murder, Israel withholding his body, and his village's response here: "Awdah Hathaleen laid to rest after Israel withheld body for 10 days" (Oren Ziv, +972 Magazine, 8/7/25) and "Israel is holding Awdah Hathaleen's body. His killer roams freely through his village" (Sahar Vardi and Basel Adra, +972 Magazine, 8/5/25)  Also see this 2021 conversation FMEP hosted, "Palestinian Bodies Held Hostage by Israel," with human rights advocate & researcher Budour Hassan and Professor Noura Erakat about Israel's policy of holding hostage the bodies of slain Palestinians. This conversation drew on Israeli authorities holding the body of Ahmad Erekat, Noura's cousin.  Randa May Wahbe earned her PhD in anthropology from Harvard University. Her dissertation is titled “The Politics of Karameh: Palestinian Dignity and Defiance Against the Necrocarceral State” in which she investigates Israel's exploitation of the Palestinian dead. Randa currently works in movement advocacy to support progressive groups elevate their voices in the media and is an Adjunct Professor at University of San Francisco. Previously, she served as head of international advocacy for a leading human rights organization in Palestine that defends political prisoners rights, where she led global campaigns during hunger strikes and moments of escalating violence. Hilary Rantisi grew up in Palestine and has been involved with education and advocacy on the Middle East since her move to the US. She is a 2025 Fellow at FMEP and was most recently the Associate Director of the Religion, Conflict and Peace Initiative (RCPI) and co-instructor of Learning in Context: Narratives of Displacement and Belonging in Israel/Palestine at Harvard Divinity School. She has over two decades of experience in institution building at Harvard, having been the Director of the Middle East Initiative (MEI) at Harvard Kennedy School of Government prior to her current role. She has a BA in Political Science/International Studies from Aurora University and a master's degree in Middle Eastern Studies from the University of Chicago.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Hilary Rantisi speaks with Palestinian-Canadian lawyer and analyst Diana Buttu. They discuss Palestinian citizens of Israel, who have long navigated Israeli racism and have faced accelerated repression over the last 22 months that has included arrests, threats, and efforts to impeach Palestinian Knesset Member Ayman Odeh and undermine Palestinian political participation inside of Israel. They talk about responses to the Israeli genocide in Gaza, including recent protests and hunger strikes led by Palestinian citizens of Israel as well as growing numbers of Jewish Israelis who are naming Israeli actions in Gaza as genocide. They also look at the new diplomatic wave led by many Western states promising to recognize a Palestinian state and, specifically, how that state recognition is juxtaposed against the International Court of Justice's rulings on Israeli occupation. Finally, Diana reflects on the legacy of the Oslo Accords and the reckoning on those agreements that has never occurred.  Diana Buttu is a Palestinian-Canadian lawyer, analyst, and writer. She is also the Communications Director in Palestine for the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU). Previously, she served as a legal advisor to the Palestinian Liberation Organization.

Pre-order Gita Wirjawan's book, “What It Takes”, NOW:https://sgpp.me/what-it-takes-ytWhat makes civilizations rise, thrive, and sometimes vanish? How do geography, language, and ideas shape the destiny of nations? In this sweeping conversation, historian Wang Gungwu takes us on a 2,000-year journey—through the birth of the nation-state, the paradoxes of Southeast Asia, and the making of modern China.From the Abbasid Golden Age to Mongol conquests, from India's gods to China's bureaucracy, from Indonesia's “miracle” to Singapore's unlikely success—this is history as a map for the future. We talk about borders, culture, and the problem of succession; why civilizations fail when they can't communicate; and how Southeast Asia can lead without imitating China or the US.It's a masterclass in how the past shapes the present—and a call for the next generation to learn, adapt, and imagine a better world order.#Endgame #GitaWirjawan #WangGungwu__________________________________________________About Professor Wang Gungwu:Prof. Gungwu is a renowned historian and scholar of Chinese history and the Chinese diaspora.

Lyndia Downie has served as Pine Street Inn's President & Executive Director since 2000 and on Pine Street's staff for 40 years, working in roles throughout the organization. As a result of her leadership and vision, Pine Street is now the largest provider of housing with support services for individuals moving out of homelessness in New England, with 1,100 units of housing and a major housing expansion underway. Her collaboration with other key agencies, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the City of Boston has brought the population of unsheltered individuals to just over three percent of the overall homeless population. To place that in context, in San Francisco, a city of similar size and high housing costs, the unsheltered homeless rate is over 50 percent.With a $98 million budget and services provided at four shelters and 39 housing locations in Boston and Brookline, Pine Street supports over 2,100 individuals each day, with programs including street outreach, emergency shelter, supportive housing and job training. iCater, a Pine Street Inn social enterprise, is a successful catering business providing meals to a variety of organizations and job training to individuals moving back into the workforce.Looking ahead, Lyndia is guiding Pine Street's bold plan to add 400-500 new units, with 250 already in development. The expansion is driven by large-scale new developments that will have a powerful impact on ending homelessness. This expanded vision for housing is largely supported by a transformative $15 million commitment from the Yawkey Foundation.With her keen understanding of the complex causes of homelessness and proven methods to solve it, Lyndia is a frequently requested speaker who regularly serves as a policy advisor at the city, state and federal levels. Lyndia served on former Mayor Walsh's Advisory Council on Homelessness and was a member of the task force that helped shape the City of Boston's action plan to end veteran and chronic homelessness. She also serves on a number of policy advisory committees to the state's Executive Office of Health and Human Services, and has presented on Pine Street Inn's strategic housing expansion at the annual conference of the National Alliance to End Homelessness in Washington, D.C.Additionally, Lyndia has been tapped to serve on a number of committees and boards, including the Massachusetts Council of Human Service Providers, the Massachusetts Housing & Shelter Alliance, the Board of Advisors of Eastern Bank and the Franklin Square House Foundation. She was also named a Barr Fellow through the Barr Foundation's program to honor nonprofit leaders in the region and has co-taught a course on solutions to homelessness at the Harvard Kennedy School.In 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, Lyndia was selected as one of the top 100 women leaders in Massachusetts by The Commonwealth Institute in partnership with The Boston Globe. Boston Magazine has named Lyndia “One of the 100 Most Influential Bostonians,” and she has received the Massachusetts Council of Human Services' CEO Award of Excellence for her leadership. In addition, Pine Street Inn was honored with Bank of America's Neighborhood Builders award, which recognizes innovation, excellence and leadership among nonprofits across the country.Lyndia received the Henry L. Shattuck City Champion Award from the Boston Municipal Research Bureau and was named the “Most Innovative Person in the Massachusetts Non-Profit Sector” by The Boston Globe.

Chuck Todd begins with the public and media feeding frenzy over Donald Trump and the Epstein files and explains that the best explanation for the administration's defensiveness is that Trump's reputation would be tarnished rather than Trump being implicated in crimes. He also weighs in on the FCC and chairman Brendan Carr deciding that the government should have a role in editorial decisions for broadcast networks and why that's a clear violation of the first amendment. He also breaks down recent polling that shows how badly the Democratic brand is with the general public.Then, John Della Volpe, Director of Polling at the Harvard Kennedy School's Institute of Politics joins Chuck to dissect the political awakening of America's youngest voters and the warning signs Democrats can't afford to ignore. Della Volpe explains why Harris's underperformance with young voters compared to Biden signals a deeper crisis for Democrats, particularly with young men who have been drifting away from the party for years. The conversation explores how economic anxiety trumps cultural issues when voters are struggling, why Trump's approval rating is cratering below 30% with under-30 voters despite his election victory, and how COVID-19 became a defining generational experience that shaped Gen Z's worldview in ways politicians are only beginning to understand.The discussion delves into the complex psychology of young male voters, from Della Volpe's "10 archetypes" framework to why many feel abandoned by institutions and drawn to figures like Charlie Kirk who project strength. Della Volpe argues that while Gen Z has largely given up on Washington, they remain deeply engaged in their local communities—as evidenced by progressive victories like Mamdani's win when young voters feel genuinely heard. The episode tackles uncomfortable truths about how Democrats might be losing the messaging war to MAGA influencers, why the party can't manufacture its own "Joe Rogan," and whether this generation that "loves Bernie and hates woke" will ultimately become transformational political actors shaped by Trump-era strongman politics.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment!Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction02:00 Gen Z's politics haven't been set in stone yet03:30 Huge trend in voters registered as “No Party”05:30 Epstein feeding frenzy is being driven by algorithms07:15 If Maxwell had more info, why didn't she talk in exchange for a lesser sentence?08:45 The biggest question mark is Trump's defensiveness09:45 There was no Epstein “cover up” by the media11:45 The most likely explanation is that releasing files would tarnish Trump13:15 The DOJ is losing all credibility with the public15:15 The information ecosystem is terrible and unregulated AI will make it worse*16:30 Elon giving Grok a political bias will make people think all AI's are biased17:15 FCC restrictions will turn CBS into state television18:45 Most important diversity in a newsroom is geography and socioeconomic20:30 Our news ecosystem has been hijacked by the Epstein conspiracy22:00 The FCC is violating the first amendment24:00 Brendan Carr believes the FCC's job is to dictate content26:15 Newsroom leaders have mostly stayed silent on FCC overreach29:45 Epstein story shows that the public can be whipped up by misinformation31:00 “How to” guide for assessing public polling34:00 Polling with registered voters is good for R's, “All adults” polls good for D's35:45 Dems only lead by 3 points on the generic ballot37:00 Democrats 60% unfavorable in same WSJ poll39:00 Dems can be unpopular and still win the midterms41:00 Voters trust Republicans in Congress on most issues43:15 A midterm electorate is much different than the entire population45:15 John Della Volpe joins the Chuck ToddCast! 46:45 When Democrats win 60% of the youth vote, they win 48:15 Harris did worse with both young men and women than Biden in 20' 49:45 Democrats' problem with young men has been brewing for years 51:30 Democrats need to get closer to voters 52:45 Did Obama create a coalition that was unique to him? 54:30 Abortion was a more salient issue in 22' than in 24' 55:30 When the economy is bad, cultural issues take a backseat 57:45 Trump hasn't addressed cost of living and his approval is dropping 59:45 Trump's approval is under 30% with voters under 30 1:01:00 Where do Millennials and Gen-Z align and diverge? 1:03:00 Covid was a defining moment for Gen-Z 1:04:45 Migration patterns are south and west, not north 1:06:15 Gen-Z knows they won't do as well as their parents 1:07:15 Eras tour showed Gen-Z craves in-person experiences and community 1:10:15 Can Democrats manufacture a "Joe Rogan of the left"? 1:11:45 Young men came out of Covid more isolated than young women 1:12:45 MAGA developed relationships with influencers outside of politics 1:14:15 Young men grow up with expectations they'll be providers 1:15:30 The 10 archetypes of young men 1:16:45 "Provider" types are feeling abandoned by institutions 1:18:30 "The Scroller" has been shaped by algorithms 1:20:00 AOC is the only politician to reach young voters via gaming 1:21:30 Will Gen Z be a transformational generation politically? 1:23:00 Gen Z has given up on Washington but not their communities1:25:00 The lesson from Mamdani's win is young voters show up when they feel heard 1:26:15 Gen Z loves Bernie and hates "woke" 1:27:45 Gen Z white men have felt mocked and shamed 1:29:00 Gen Z men see strength in Charlie Kirk 1:31:00 At what stage of life do political preferences get calcified? 1:33:15 Gen Z will be shaped by Trump 1:34:15 Strongman politics will be formative to Gen Z 1:36:00 Is it too soon to understand Gen Alpha?1:39:00 Chuck's thoughts on interview with John Della Volpe 1:40:00 The cultural impact of the celebrities we lost in the past week 1:42:45 Professional wrestling and Donald Trump go hand in hand 1:44:30 Ask Chuck 1:45:00 What areas can the U.S. recover from quickly after Trump leaves office? 1:49:15 Can Democrats learn anything from the "sewer socialists" in Milwaukee? 1:53:00 What was it like doing your cameo in "Heads of State"? 1:54:00 Why are we so fixated on Iran's ability to build a nuke? 1:57:30 Baseball Hall of Fame inductions

For decades, Joseph Nye was one of the true giants of American foreign policy. His career, in government and in the academy, spanned epochs, and his body of work as a scholar of international relations remains unparalleled.   Nye, who passed away at the age of 88 in May, served in the Carter and Clinton administrations and headed the Harvard Kennedy School for nearly two decades. But he may be best known for his contributions to the study of international relations. Nye coined the term “soft power” and co-authored Power and Interdependence, a pathbreaking analysis of geopolitics, with Robert Keohane.   Fifty years later, Nye and Keohane, longtime colleagues and friends, reunited for a final time in Foreign Affairs' pages, to argue that President Donald Trump's single-minded fixation on hard power risks weakening the real sources of U.S. strength. It is a fitting, if not exactly valedictory, culmination of a life in the American century.   Over the decades, Keohane got to know Nye the thinker and Nye the man better than almost anyone. Dan Kurtz-Phelan spoke with Keohane about Nye's legacy and about what a changing American foreign policy will mean for the future of international relations.

Discussion Highlights:Building Schengen: Origins in the Coal and Steel Community (1952), the Treaty of Rome (1958), and the Schengen Agreement (1995), creating 16,000 km of invisible internal borders through a single market and shared enforcement mechanisms.Asylum strains: Germany and Austria have received over half of all EU asylum seekers during the Syrian and Ukrainian crises, revealing the breakdown of the Dublin allocation rules under free movement.Humanitarian crisis at the external border: Approximately 30,000 people have died attempting Mediterranean crossings in the last decade, underscoring the need to address smuggler-driven journeys.EU–Turkey precedent: The 2016 agreement cut irregular crossings from about 1 million to 30,000 and deaths from 1,100 to 80 within a year, demonstrating the efficacy of safe-third-country arrangements.Safe-third-country proposals: Knaus calls for similar pacts with West African states to deter Canary Islands crossings, coupled with procedural guarantees under international law.Regular migration frameworks: Expansion of refugee resettlement and labour migration via planned pathways—in the style of Canada or Australia—to meet workforce needs and reduce reliance on smugglers.European deterrence: With U.S. reliability in doubt, Europe must bolster its own deterrent capacity—including possibilities such as a German nuclear option—and integrate frontline democracies.EU enlargement: A clear, merit-based accession roadmap for Ukraine, Moldova, and Western Balkan candidates is essential to reinforce democracy, security, and prosperity.Engaging the next generation: Francesca Knaus highlights a gap in how Europe's peace “miracle,” the lived threat of modern warfare, and climate urgency are communicated to younger Europeans.About Gerald KnausGerald Knaus is an Austrian social scientist and co-founder and chairman of the European Stability Initiative (ESI), which he helped establish in Sarajevo in June 1999.

From April 9, 2024: In the early morning on March 26, a Singapore-flagged cargo ship crashed into Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge. The bridge collapsed, resulting in the death of six of the eight individuals conducting maintenance on the bridge. The incident has disrupted commuter traffic and the transport of hazardous materials, and it has halted shipping traffic at the Port of Baltimore, among other effects.Lawfare Research Fellow Matt Gluck discussed the bridge's collapse, how authorities responded to it, and what it all means for the resilience of U.S. critical infrastructure and the state of crisis response with Juliette Kayyem, a professor of international security at the Harvard Kennedy School—who recently wrote a book on disaster management. Was the bridge adequately protected? How should governments and the private sector prepare to both prevent crises, but perhaps more importantly, prepare for the aftermath when they inevitably occur?

How to sustain an international system of cooperation in the midst of geopolitical struggle? Can the international economic and legal system survive today's fractured geopolitics? Democracies are facing a drawn-out contest with authoritarian states that is entangling much of public policy with global security issues. In Global Discord: Values and Power in a Fractured World Order (Princeton University Press, 2024), Paul Tucker lays out principles for a sustainable system of international cooperation, showing how democracies can deal with China and other illiberal states without sacrificing their deepest political values. Drawing on three decades as a central banker and regulator, Tucker applies these principles to the international monetary order, including the role of the U.S. dollar, trade and investment regimes, and the financial system. Combining history, economics, and political and legal philosophy, Tucker offers a new account of international relations. Rejecting intellectual traditions that go back to Hobbes, Kant, and Grotius, and deploying instead ideas from David Hume, Bernard Williams, and modern mechanism-design economists, Tucker describes a new kind of political realism that emphasizes power and interests without sidelining morality. Incentives must be aligned with values if institutions are to endure. The connecting tissue for a system of international cooperation, he writes, should be legitimacy, creating a world of concentric circles in which we cooperate more with those with whom we share the most and whom we fear the least. Paul Tucker is a fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School and the author of Unelected Power (Princeton). He is a former central banker and regulator at the Bank of England, and a former director at Basel's Bank for International Settlements, where he chaired some of the groups designing reforms of the international financial system after the Global Financial Crisis.

Let's talk about women in sports—and not just the headline-makers or the occasional viral moment. We're talking about the Olympians, the Paralympians, and the elite athletes around the world who are changing the game… even if you've never heard their names. In this first (but definitely not last) episode on the topic, we're shining a spotlight on the stories that deserve more air time. Because representation in sports matters—and so does who's telling the story. Jamie Mittelman is our guest today, and she's made it her mission to elevate women athletes on a global stage. She's the founder and host of Flame Bearers, the first international media platform dedicated to women Olympians and Paralympians. With a background in media, a Master's from the Harvard Kennedy School, and experience managing a $30M portfolio for Yahoo, Jamie is using her superpowers to amplify diverse, overlooked voices in elite women's sports. Because every time we tell these stories, we challenge outdated norms, push representation forward, and create a ripple effect for the next generation of athletes. And if you've been sleeping on women's sports… consider this your wake-up call. As the saying goes: Everyone watches women's sports. And everyone should.

Dems can't eat enough popcorn as John jokes about the huge fight between Musk and Trump. Each of them own and operate their own social media network, and today they used those networks to bitch and moan about each other in an epic clash of douchebags. Trump threatened to pull Musk's government contracts, Musk named Trump as part of the Epstein files and the sole reason for its delayed release. Then, he interviews John Della Volpe who is the Director of Polling at the Harvard Kennedy School's Institute of Politics, where he has led research initiatives on American youth since 2000. His work focuses on understanding the attitudes, values, and behaviors of young Americans and their impact on politics and public life. A contributor to NBC, MSNBC, and The New York Times, John is the author of the critically acclaimed book Fight: How Gen Z is Channeling Their Fear and Passion to Save America. He has launched the Speaking with American Men (SAM) Project, a first-of-its-kind initiative to re-engage young men who feel increasingly alienated from civic life and abandoned by civic institutions. It was borne from post-2024 election data showing a dramatic 12-point shift, from 2020, to Republicans among young men (18-29) and a clear warning that too many feel unheard, unrepresented, and culturally dismissed.The launch includes the release of an urgent new report titled Young Men in America Today: New Research on Their Opinions, Media, Challenges, and How Progressives Can Win them Back.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
