Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the federal charges brought against the light-rail stabbing suspect and the growing public anger surrounding safety on Charlotte’s transit system. He notes that U.S. Attorney Russ Ferguson is announcing charges in real time, underscoring how the attacker—a Honduran national who should not have been on the train—has become a flashpoint for broader concerns about crime and accountability. Brett highlights how U.S. Attorney Russ Ferguson’s rapid announcement of federal charges signals just how badly the system failed, allowing a Honduran national—who shouldn’t have been here or on the train—to inflict a near-fatal attack. With yet another assault reported on the light rail this week, Brett says people no longer believe local leaders understand the fear regular riders live with. He ties Charlotte’s situation to what he calls a national pattern of weak enforcement, unserious politicians, and communities stuck paying the price. For Brett, this isn’t a transit story anymore—it’s a public safety warning. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

PREVIEW — Evan Ellis — Honduras: Poverty, Corruption, and Migration Crisis. Ellis details the severe structural poverty and endemic corruption plaguing Honduras, characterized by institutionally weak governance frameworks systematically infiltrated by drug trafficking organizations and violent gangs including Mara Salvatucha and Mara 18, which exercise de facto control over substantial territorial jurisdictions. Ellis documents that despite significant recent reductions in homicide rates reflecting improved security conditions, Honduras remains fundamentally unstable, functioning as a major source of Central American and Caribbean migration toward Northern Triangle transit routes to the United States. Ellis notes that domestic Honduran political constituencies are increasingly demanding law-and-order governance and institutional reform to address gang violence, territorial control by criminal organizations, and the dysfunctional state capacity that perpetuates irregular migration and humanitarian crises. 1930 CARACAS

David Adler and Matt Kirkegaard of the Progressive International debrief the Honduran elections. Elfadil Ibrahim examines the Sudanese civil war. And finally Eric Blanc, drawing from Milwaukee's decades of “sewer socialism,” offers lessons for Mamdani and Wilson. Behind the News, hosted by Doug Henwood, covers the worlds of economics and politics and their complex interactions, from the local to the global.

On November 30, six million Hondurans voted in their presidential election. One week later, the outcome of the election has not yet been announced due to credible allegations of fraud and illegal interference by the Trump administration, which includes threats of ending remittances from the United States that account for 25% of Hondura's GDP. Clearing the FOG speaks with Camila Escalante of Press TV and a founder of Kawsachun News who has covered Latin America for nearly ten years. Escalante provides background to the current political crisis and explains what is known so far about the election. She describes similarities to the 2019 coup in Bolivia.

In her official media handoff to the democrat party, Marjorie Taylor Greene sits down with old bag Leslie Stahl to make her case to the left: I am no longer MAGA. President Trump's pardon of the former Honduran president has George Stephanopolous fighting mad. He picks the wrong target with Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt skewering ABC's fake news narrative whose objective is to  smear and disgrace Pete Hegseth. New polling shows a possible midterm bounce for the GOP.

In this 20 minute podcast: -The show reports that President Trump pardons former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández, a convicted drug trafficker who previously dismantled his nation's constitutional term limits. -It recounts Hernández's authoritarian takeover, including packing the Honduran Supreme Court, overturning the ban on consecutive presidential terms, and securing a disputed re-election marred by violence and international condemnation. -The episode highlights the broader global trend of leaders fighting term limits, comparing Honduras to countries like Russia, China, and Venezuela, and contrasting that with the U.S. perspective where term limits are viewed as a core safeguard for democracy. -The show celebrates momentum for a U.S. constitutional convention on congressional term limits, noting that 12 states—including Indiana, South Carolina, and South Dakota— have formally applied, with major new bipartisan national co-chairs joining the effort. -USTL President Philip Blumel spotlights organizational updates: a major website revamp, new branding, upcoming promotional videos, and calls for listeners to take legislative action and support the movement!

https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin251205.mp3 Right-click here to download this episode (“Save link as…”). CEPR (12/2/25) This week on CounterSpin: A militarized US Drug Enforcement Administration force declared they'd taken out drug traffickers in the Caribbean, killing some of them in what was sold as a successful operation. Locals on the ground reported differently, saying these people weren't drug traffickers, just human beings who happened to be on the river and got shot up by US forces who were not attacked, as they claimed, but just killed innocent people because they were given orders to kill them. It should sound familiar—but this isn't today in Venezuela; it's 2012 in Honduras. An inspector general review from the State Department and the Justice Department found that, no, this was not a Honduran operation, or a “joint operation” the DEA were helping with; it was a DEA operation, and it killed four innocent people and injured others in a remote, Afro-Indigenous part of Honduras. The story that the DEA pushed on Congress and the press corps was just a lie. But you’d hardly know that history reading current coverage of Honduras, where, as we record on December 4, the presidential election is still in question. Not in question: the US's long history of intervening—violently, dramatically, unaccountably—in Honduras. We'll talk about it with Alex Main, director of international policy at the Center for Economic and Policy Research. https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin251205Main.mp3 Plus Janine Jackson takes a quick look at media coverage of the murder of Amber Czech. https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin251205Banter.mp3

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack the widening sense inside Trumpworld that the operation is slipping into pure incompetence. From Pete Hegseth's troubling battlefield lore to Keystone Kash Patel's chaos, Wolff charts a mood shift that even Murdoch-world can't quite hide. Wolff outlines how Jeffrey Epstein once warned that Trump would misuse his pardon power, as evinced by Trump's pardon of Honduran ex-president and cocaine trafficker Juan Orlando Hernández. Joanna presses the central question of the hour: Is this the moment when Trump's own allies decide the circus has finally become a liability? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump's rallies have been his signature event, but since he returned to the White House, he has stopped doing them. And his allies are worried he's losing touch with voters, as well as his political antenna. Instead of traveling the country, he's dining with billionaires, playing golf, and going abroad in search of his elusive peace prize. Meanwhile, he can't stay awake in own Cabinet meetings. Plus, the heat is on Hegseth, the ex-Honduran president Trump pardoned bragged about stuffing drugs up the noses of Americans, and the results of the Tennessee special election are a good sign for Democrats—and a reminder for the party to go all-in on the gerrymandering war. Jonathan Lemire joins Tim Miller. show notes Jonathan's piece on Trump not doing rallies The Atlantic on Germany permanently stationing troops beyond its borders 

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth defends a pair of deadly strikes, while distancing himself from a key decision. A former Honduran leader is pardoned by President Trump, 40 years before his drug trafficking sentence is up.

In this week's Gaslit Nation, Andrea and Kyiv-based journalist Terrell Starr discuss how American corporate oligarchs act like authoritarian regimes. It's a lot like Trump, Kushner, and their real estate buddy Steve Witkoff's plan to sell out Ukraine to Russia. Once again we're reminding you that the war against oligarchy here at home is global.  Amazon, one of the 37 donors who helped bankroll Trump's illegal and unnecessary ballroom, was exposed in an investigation by Rolling Stone for possibly causing a cancer cluster near one of its data centers in Oregon, an allegation the company denies, because they know, under Kremlin-backed mass-murdering Trump, escalating a war for oil in Venezuela, they will get away with it. This is the same Jeff Bezos who celebrated in the White House with Trump, Kushner, and the Saudis who murdered Washington Post writer and Saudi dissident Jamal Khashoggi. Democracy doesn't just die in darkness; it dies under cheap gold fixtures and chandeliers. We also discuss why both Trump and Putin need a war in Venezuela to distract from their corruption at home, how oligarch ownership of the press continues to hollow it out, and how much more Americans can take of this abuse and gaslighting. And yet, amid all this lawlessness, democracy defenders around the world are fighting back. Bolsonaro's escape plan got foiled as he faces 27 years in prison, New Yorkers joined other American cities and towns in shutting down Trump's gestapo, and MAGA continue to be punished for voting for him–with a recent poll showing one in four Trump voters are disappointed or regret their vote. Join us for Gaslit Nation's bonus show out Thursday as we debate whether America is ready for a woman president–and how to stop Kushner and Ivanka from winning the MAGA succession war to install Ivanka with the help of their dictator friends.

Maduro Suffers Blow as Honduran Leftist Candidate Loses — John Batchelor, Ernesto Araujo, Alejandro Peña Esclusa — Peña Esclusa interprets the Venezuelan-backed candidate's defeat in the Honduras presidential election as a significant strategic setback for Maduro and the Venezuelan regime. Araujo identifies this outcome as reflecting a broader hemispheric political realignment wherein voters systematically reject the ideological alliance of socialism with organized crime networks, instead shifting toward Western-oriented center-right governance. Batchelor credits USdiplomatic engagement and strategic influence as a significant contributing factor in these regional political realignments favorable to American interests and democratic governance norms. 1905 HONDURAS

Today's Headlines: A CIA-trained Afghan asylum recipient shot two National Guard members in DC—one fatally—prompting Trump to announce (on his little app) a “pause” on all migration from “third world countries”. The administration is now freezing asylum and Afghan visas while somehow avoiding the question of why the National Guard is still posted in DC at all. Meanwhile, the Trump team is escalating its hunt for “sedition,” with the FBI now interviewing the six Democratic veterans who reminded troops not to follow illegal orders. And in the Department of Defense (War), Pete Hegseth allegedly ordered a second strike to kill survivors of a botched boat attack—something even a few Senate Republicans have decided is maybe a bridge too far. Trump also pardoned former Honduran president and convicted drug trafficker Juan Orlando Hernández, who immediately went home like it was checkout time at Club Fed. On the Ukraine front, Rubio, Kushner, and Steve Witkoff are still trying to spin their “peace plan,” which reporting suggests was always just a giant business deal in disguise. The drama deepened when Zelensky's chief-of-staff Andriy Yermak resigned after a corruption raid and announced he's headed to the front lines. In other news, the families of Americans killed or injured on Oct. 7 are suing Binance for allegedly helping fund Hamas and other militant groups—just weeks after Trump pardoned Binance's founder. Over in Israel, Netanyahu is trying to get a presidential pardon mid-trial because sure, why the heck not. Additionally, hundreds of New Yorkers blocked what looked like an ICE raid with their bodies and literal piles of garbage bags, Senate Republicans are gearing up to fight basic car-safety rules, and RFK Jr. just ditched asbestos testing for talc cosmetics because…MAHA. Finally, GOP Rep. Troy Nehls is retiring, but don't celebrate too hard—his identical twin is already lining up to take his spot.
