Choice Classic Radio presents This Is Your FBI, which aired from 1945 to 1953. Today we bring to you the episode titled "Murder on the High Seas.” Please consider supporting our show by becoming a patron at http://choiceclassicradio.com We hope you enjoy the show!
Welcome to this incendiary, shocking and investigative episode of Light ‘Em Up!As we rapidly approach the end of the calendar year, we're so glad that you've joined us!Share us with a friend. We're being actively downloaded in 146 countries, globally.Contact us at: prizzo@rpgconsultingltd.comTonight, we examine the concept and legality of governmental extra-judicial killings — summarily executing people. Extrajudicial killing is the deliberate killing of a person without legal authority from a judicial process.It is “extra” “judicial” … or outside the scope of the normal route where a person is arrested, charged and given a trial before a verdict is rendered.In fact, as we go to air with this episode, the Trump administration has embarked on a deadly serious campaign of openly targeting and killing people who have only been clandestinely labeled as “drug smugglers” — within the administration's small, secretive, circle without offering any hard evidence, nor extending to these people a single solitary ounce of due process of law.At the time of recording, since the 1st of September, when President Trump announced the first strike on a boat he claimed – without providing evidence – killed 11 “Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists” under the control of Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro, through the end of October, the U.S. had claimed to have killed 64 alleged drug smugglers on 16 boats.This situation is fluid and difficult to track, however, to date, since September 2, Donald Trump has summarily executed 70 civilians suspected of drug trafficking in 17 separate airstrikes in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean.The administration admitted in a closed-door briefing to Congress that they don't even know the identities of the people they've killed. How in the hell is this possible? Congress has abdicated its power(s), duties and responsibilities to the public.To support our claims — as evidence, we'll provide historical examples of other governmental extra-judicial murderous actions.And we ask the question has America under Trump become even more of a pariah on the world's stage?We'll expose the risky behavior in how governmental extra-judicial killings trigger a cascade of destabilizing consequences across legal, political, social and psychological domains.These effects can:— erode democracy and democratic institutions— inflict trauma on the populace— and can perpetuate further cycles of deadly violence.Two people who survived boat bombings were released back to their home countries because the Trump administration lacked sufficient evidence to even arrest them.In the words of one member of Congress who attended the briefing, “This is just murder.”We are shining the antiseptic light of the truth further exposing Trump's illegal killing spree. Some analysts now believe Trump has tasked “his generals” with planning a full-scale regime change war against Venezuela.So much for Trump's campaign claim of never entering into endless wars.Democracy is dying right in front of us.Justice isn't about laws … it's about lives!In a time of crisis — facts matter most!Tune out the world and tune-in to Light ‘Em Up — Right here and right now!Also, please tune in and follow our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot!We want to hear from you!

Part 1: Justice Jackson can actually read the Constitution!?!? She understands that the President can't spend what Congress hasn't appropriated. That means that the 1st Circuit is all wet.Part 2: Is Trump's war on drug boats murder on the high seas? Or is it lawful under the Law of War?

The ship greeted our guests Ryan and Tegan with a surprise: a pumpkin tree called Ginger, glowing at night with character-carved pumpkins and just enough Halloween vibe to make the decks feel new. From there, this sailing became a golden birthday story—father–daughter photos on formal night, a cake from the dining team, and a towel-cake masterpiece waiting in their stateroom. Of course they didn't abandon the classics: Tegan still chased Broadway-style shows, met characters on the fly, and Ryan found quiet moments on a midship veranda as the Eastern Caribbean drifted by.What stood out most? Choice. Younger cruisers looped trick-or-treat stations for as much candy as they could carry, while teens enjoyed a surprisingly chill Edge and Vibe thanks to school-season timing. They caught the Sanderson Sisters, then sprinted to a rare Oogie Boogie meet-and-greet where he made them dance and applauded Tegan's pirouette. Because the Treasure is new and sailing near capacity, they expected crowds—but the kid density felt lighter, which meant easier access to lounges, shows, and those spontaneous character moments in hallways and stairwells that parks can't always deliver.We get practical too. If you're planning a surprise cruise, match the reveal to your kid's style and consider weather season; two weeks out hit the sweet spot for packing, costumes, and excitement without spiraling into hurricane-tracking anxiety. Book late and be flexible on staterooms; book early if room category matters. And if you're debating a themed sailing, think of Halloween on the High Seas as a refined bonus: character costume rotations, atmospheric décor, and a tree lighting that adds texture without taking over your itinerary.Come aboard our Halloween recap for tips, stories, and the kind of Disney Cruise Line details that help you plan your own memory-rich voyage.

It's another Friday packed with Real Housewives recaps, but first, Dylan has to spend some time unpacking his latest hyperfixation: Stacey Rusch's viral QVC clips. Look at that camel! From there, he dives into the dramatic waters of RHOSLC's Below Deck crossover, where Heather's big Lisa Barlow confrontation goes… exactly as expected. Next, he discusses the RHOC season finale, which is mostly a snooze until the last 10 minutes go off the rails. Gretchen is (allegedly) a homophobe, Tamra is (allegedly) leaking filming details to the press, and these editors are definitely exhausted. Later, Dylan shares some thoughts about RHOP's Nevis trip, before sharing the divorce news that's All The Rage, presented by Angry Orchard Hard Cider.

Since early September, President Donald Trump has ordered a series of U.S. military strikes on vessels in the Caribbean Sea the administration claims are linked to drug trafficking groups, leaving 32 people dead. One recent strike left two survivors, briefly detained by the U.S. military, and now reportedly repatriated to Colombia and Ecuador. The latest strike was reported by the Trump administration to have targeted suspected drug traffickers affiliated with a Colombian rebel group. The White House continues to defend the killings as part of a so-called war on “narco-terrorists,” while legal experts have resoundingly rejected the administration's claims to wartime authorities.Tess Bridgeman is joined by Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane to assess the latest strikes, the brief detention of two survivors, where the campaign may be headed, and what it signals for executive power, accountability, and oversight moving forward.Show Notes:Tess Bridgeman, Brian Finucane, Rebecca Ingber, The Just Security Podcast: Murder on the High Seas Part II What We Know About the U.S. Vessel Strikes One Month In (October 7, 2025, also available on YouTube)Tess Bridgeman, Brian Finucane, Rebecca Ingber, The Just Security Podcast: Murder on the High Seas?

This week in Sea of Thieves, it's time to get an impression of the latest addition to Season 17. While I'm happy with how the forts turned out, both on High Seas and Safer Seas, there's a lingering issue that I have with the Emporium. There are also some changes coming in the future that will make a majority of Hourglass players happy, and quick swap is now being tested in Insiders. All that and more on this week's episode!

Since early September, President Trump has ordered the U.S. military to conduct multiple lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean Sea suspected of drug trafficking, resulting in at least 21 deaths. These unprecedented military actions raise critical questions about the identity of those targeted, the Administration's legal justification, and the scope of presidential power to designate “terrorists” and authorize lethal force. What checks exist from Congress, courts, or the executive branch to limit such authority?On this episode of the Just Security Podcast, cross-hosted with the Reiss Center on Law and Security, host Tess Bridgeman and co-host Rachel Goldbrenner are joined by experts Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane to analyze the facts, the law, and the broader implications of this military campaign in the Caribbean.They examine an important new chapter in the use of force against drug cartels and explores how far presidential powers extend in such contexts.Show Notes: This is a joint podcast of Just Security and NYU Law School's Reiss Center on Law and Security.Executive branch reporting on the vessel strikes, on Tren de Aragua, and related resources:48-Hour Report pursuant to the War Powers Resolution (September 4, 2025) (Note: For a living resource containing this and all other publicly available reports submitted pursuant to the War Powers Resolution since its enactment in 1973, see NYU Law's Reiss Center on Law and Security's War Powers Resolution Reporting Project)Notice to Congress Under 50 U.S.C. §1543a (Section 1230 of the FY 2024 National Defense Authorization Act) (undated, made public October 2, 2025)National Intelligence Council, Venezuela: Examining Regime Ties to Tren de Aragua (April 7, 2025)Listeners may also be interested in Just Security‘s Collection: U.S. Lethal Strikes on Suspected Drug Traffickers (updated, Oct. 3, 2025), including:Mary B.

On a dark September night, a mother and son slipped into the Atlantic on a fishing trip that should have lasted only hours. A week later, the son was found alive in a drifting raft, while his mother had vanished into the depths without a trace. What followed was not just a search for a missing woman, but an unraveling tale of family fortune, murder, and betrayal at sea.

The dawgs go global(ish): While Saul sails he High Seas, Hormoz explores the Big Apple. He recaps his stage time there (and comes back with rave reviews of the New York comedy scene).

A High Five for the High Seas. That story and more on H2O Radio's weekly news report. Headlines: Last week, the High Seas Treaty that seeks to protect marine biodiversity cleared its final hurdle to become international law. A new report by six water experts said immediate steps need to be taken to substantially reduce water consumption from the Colorado River. The Salmon River in Alaska was once described as having "the clearest, purest water." Now, it runs orange because of climate change.

Last week, the United States carried out an unprecedented strike against a vessel suspected of narcotics trafficking in the Caribbean, destroying the vessel and reportedly killing 11 people on board. This action raises highly concerning questions about the process followed within the U.S. government: how and by whom was the strike authorized? Why was it carried out by U.S. armed forces? And what kind of accountability or pushback might we see from Congress, in courts, or within the government itself?Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane join Tess Bridgeman to unpack the attack, the limited justifications the administration has put forward to date, and what to expect from here.

Welcome back for the conclusion of my interview with Marine, FBI Special Agent, and HRT Operator Rob D’Amico. Rob D’Amico has over thirty-six years of federal government service—ten years in the United States Marine Corps and nearly twenty-seven with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He is the founder and principal consultant for Sierra One Consulting. Rob began a life of service when he enlisted as a US Marine during college at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, and, after obtaining his bachelor's degree, was commissioned as an officer and served his first overseas tour in the first Gulf War. His work on reconnaissance missions with the Marine Corps paved the way for Rob’s long and successful career with the FBI. After four years based out of the Bureau’s Miami, Florida field office, apprehending the most violent felons of South Florida as a member of a multi-agency violent crime fugitive task force, Rob transitioned into deep undercover work against the most notorious U.S. and Italian-based organized crime families. Rob was among the few selected to the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team, in which he served as a sniper and was first deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. Rob’s career with and beyond the HRT team placed him at each pivotal step in the resolution of kidnapping and hostile detention matters. He has worked on every facet of operations—negotiating hostage releases and exchanges, operating under the highest pressure against pirates, negotiators, warlords, leaders of terrorist networks, as well as with ambassadors, generals, foreign ministers, and non-government organizations. From being deep undercover, going after the mob, to dealing with Somali pirates, Rob has had a career that movies are literally made of. Today’s episode, we go deep into a hostage rescue operation on the high seas, dealing with Somali pirates! In today’s episode, we discuss: · The difference between HRT and SWAT in the FBI? · What attributes should HRT operators have? · What does HRT training look like? · The hijacking of the American SV Quest by Somali pirates and Rob's mission as an FBI HRT operator embedded with Navy SEALs regarding this mission. · Four United States citizens on board and 19 pirates. · The ultimate conclusion to the kidnapping? · Jurisdiction issues and maintaining and processing a floating crime scene that was in danger of sinking. · Going onto Somali soil to investigate and make arrests? · The strain on his family during this and other operations like this. How did Rob deal with it? What is his advice to someone about to do something similar to this work? · Retirement, how difficult was it to walk away from all of this? How did he cope/adjust? All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast. Visit Rob at his website! Check out the new Cops and Writers YouTube channel!

#176 - What does it take to sail around the world? For Alison Gieschen, it's required facing her worst fears while clinging to a dream she's had since childhood. From the moment she and her husband Dan met at a sailboat race and discovered their shared ambition to circumnavigate the globe, their path was set – though hardly smooth sailing.Alison's journey began far from any ocean, on a 100-acre farm in upstate New York where she developed her first great passion: horses. Rising to elite competitive levels and eventually building her own equestrian vaulting program that became the largest on the East Coast, she never imagined trading stable ground for the unpredictable waves. Yet when she met Dan, something clicked. After just one weekend together, they recognized in each other the perfect sailing partner, and soon after, life partner.Now seven years into their global circumnavigation, Alison shares harrowing tales that would make most people head straight for land – surviving "The Perfect Storm" with 20-foot waves that ripped equipment from their boat, enduring five catastrophic failures during a Pacific crossing, and facing a tsunami just days after reaching French Polynesia. Through it all, she's maintained her creative spirit, writing prolifically across genres from sailing memoirs to horse novels to children's books about mermaids.What makes Alison's story particularly compelling is her honesty about fear. Despite visiting nearly 50 countries by sea, she calls herself "the bravest chicken on the planet." This paradox captures something essential about courage – it's not fearlessness but perseverance despite terror. When their first ocean crossing went terribly wrong, a chance encounter with her sailing mentor provided the perspective she needed: surviving your worst fears is actually a gift that proves you can handle anything.Whether you're dreaming of distant horizons or simply looking for inspiration to face your own challenges, Alison's adventures remind us that, as she puts it, "Life is what you make of it, and if you have a dream, you need to go for it, because life's too short not to."To learn more about Alison and get her books check out www.alisongieschen.com.Want to be a guest on Journey with Jake?

In the annals of US military history, there are no doubt many unsolved and perplexing mysteries, but few could compare to the fate of the US Navy spy ship that was mercilessly attacked by one of its closest allies intentionally and without warning. One of the reasons it is still a mystery is because it is also the only peacetime attack on a US naval vessel that, to this day, has never been investigated by the Congress of the United States.The USS Liberty was a 455-foot, 10,150-ton electronic intercept spy ship, originally a standard-design Victory Ship--a more evolved version of the World War II Liberty Ships--which were built as supply ships, not intended for direct fighting. The Liberty had been converted to an Auxiliary Technical Research Ship (AGTR), known colloquially as a "spy ship," first deployed in 1965; its top speed was only 18 knots.Yet the Liberty's fate, one of the most enigmatic, unresolved military mysteries of all time, is, paradoxically at its core, quite clear-cut and undisputed. The basic facts generally accepted by all are that, on the fourth day of the Six Day War between Israel and its Arab neighbors (Egypt, Syria and Jordan), the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) savagely attacked the U.S. spy ship, the USS Liberty.On the warm, sunny-bright day of June 8, 1967, starting at about 6:00 a.m., at least twelve, possibly thirteen Israeli aircraft of different types began surveilling the Liberty, some of which were only 1,000 feet or less in altitude, apparently to photograph and "map" her for later targeting purposes. The precision of the later attack could only have been accomplished through such pre-planning, specifically identifying the priority targets, starting with the gun mounts to render the ship defenseless, followed by all of the forty-five different radio antennae and related transmitting equipment. . Beginning just before 2:00 p.m., three unmarked French-built Mirage III-C swept-wing fighter jets, without warning, settled into a triangular formation, aimed straight at the Liberty and proceeded to bore down on the ship in a fast low-level attack that began with rockets targeted at the four gun mounts and heat-seeking missiles aimed at the communications gear, with their warmed transmitters. . When the attack was over, thirty-four men were dead and one hundred seventy-four were injured to varying degrees, some near death.Unlike all other books ever written about the tragic attack - none of which provide a satisfactory explanation of what really caused it - Remember the Liberty! examines it in complete context of how it was positioned there by Johnson himself, for the very purpose of being attacked, and sunk, with every one of the 294 men on board going to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. His purpose was to use that event - while blaming Egyptian President Gamal Nasser for the attack - as a pretext for joining Israel in the war, even at the risk of igniting World War III with the Soviet Union. This book provides the only realistic explanation for why Lyndon Johnson did what he did, and why, in the heat of battle, he intervened with his Navy officers who were determined to rescue the Liberty and ordered them to recall the squadrons of fighter jets they had already dispatched - twice, 90 minutes apart - for that purpose.When the heroic crew saved the ship from sinking, it stopped Johnson's plan to join Israel in the war and thereby saved the world from certain nuclear conflagration. It also prevented his strategy of entering what he felt would be a "popular war" (unlike his other one in Vietnam) in order to give him a better chance to be reelected president the following year. When that failed to materialize, so did his reelection campaign; ten months later he was forced to announce his decision to not re-run for the office that he had always considered his destiny.https://amzn.to/4n9s0zkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Today’s episode, we do a deep dive into his beginnings and Marine career. We also dive into what goes on in the head of an FBI SWAT and HRT team member and brush on his undercover work. Next Sunday, we go deep into a hostage rescue operation on the high seas, dealing with Somali pirates!

Not just FBI, but high-risk undercover operations and HRT, high-speed operators, again, the best of the best. What instilled that in him? · What drove him to be the best of the best? What continues to drive him today?. · How does Rob deal with rejection? · What are the biggest misconceptions people have of the Marines and or combat? · What steered him towards the FBI? · When did he start doing undercover work? · What’s most important to the mob? · How soon into his career was he doing undercover work? · The difference between HRT and SWAT in the FBI. Who should be doing this work? What attributes should they have? All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.
