Current US foreign policy under the Trump administration has significantly broken with long-term partnerships and traditional structures of the so-called international rules based order. With the US being at odds with its long-term strategic partners Canada and Europe, the future of NATO as well as security in the pacific have become contentious issues. Trump's actions have revealed contradictions within the previous dominant functioning of International Relations with his administration's foreign policy radically utilising the power position asserted and given to the US on the world stage. Flo spoke to Dr John Battersby, senior fellow for the center for defence and security studies at Massey University about current global security, the practical absence of an international rule based order and implications of US foreign policy on New Zealand.

Snowmageddon makes an early strike on Dari. Charles Bediako implications.
By Bram Duffee, PhD, EMT-P For EMS providers who respond to a traumatic cardiac arrest, the instinct to initiate CPR is almost automatic. But could this life-saving intervention inadvertently hinder recovery in cases of severe hemorrhagic shock? A recent study, “Effect of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation on Perfusion in a Porcine Model of Severe Hemorrhagic Shock,” challenges conventional wisdom and offers new insights that could reshape trauma care protocols. The Study: A Closer Look at CPR in Trauma-Induced PEA The research, led by Dr. Patrick Greiffenstein, professor of clinical surgery at LSU New Orleans and trauma ICU director at the Norman McSwain Spirit of Charity Trauma Center, addresses a critical gap in trauma care. While CPR is a cornerstone of resuscitation in cardiac arrest, its application in trauma-induced pulseless electrical activity (PEA) has not been rigorously validated. Trauma PEA, unlike medical cardiac arrest, is a low-flow state caused by severe blood loss (hypovolemia), where the heart shows electrical activity but fails to generate a palpable pulse. “CPR is a cornerstone of resuscitation and cardiac arrest, but its application in trauma-induced PEA has not really been rigorously evaluated,” explains Dr. Greiffenstein. “Trauma PEA is fundamentally a low-flow state caused by hypovolemia—insufficient blood volume.” The study aimed to determine how CPR affects tissue perfusion—specifically oxygen delivery to the brain and skin—during severe hemorrhagic shock. Using a porcine model, researchers simulated life-threatening blood loss and compared outcomes between two groups: one receiving automated CPR and the other left untreated during the shock phase. Key Findings: When CPR May Do More Harm Than Good The results were both surprising and concerning: No Improvement in Perfusion: CPR did not enhance oxygenation in the brain or skin. In fact, skin perfusion was significantly lower in the CPR group during both the shock and recovery phases. Adverse Hemodynamic Effects: While CPR increased systolic blood pressure (SBP), it significantly reduced diastolic blood pressure (DBP), which is critical for coronary and organ perfusion. Potential Harm: CPR caused a threefold increase in intracranial pressure (ICP), suggesting that chest compressions might disrupt normal blood flow dynamics in the brain. “Knowing now that extreme efforts like lining people up to do CPR can cause turbulence within the system is a significant advancement,” says Dr. Greiffenstein. “It's possible to have perfusion at these unreadable MAP scores, which is a critical insight for trauma care.” Implications for Trauma Care These findings challenge the one-size-fits-all approach to CPR in cardiac arrest scenarios. In cases of hemorrhagic shock, CPR might: Divert attention from more effective interventions, such as rapid blood transfusion or surgical control of bleeding. Worsen perfusion to vital organs, potentially exacerbating the patient's condition. “In military cases, field medics often don't have the opportunity to perform full chest compressions on the battlefield. Sometimes, all they can do is drag a person to a safe position,” notes Dr. Greiffenstein. This study underscores the importance of prioritizing interventions that address the root cause of trauma PEA—severe blood loss—over traditional resuscitation techniques. A Call for Updated Guidelines The American Heart Association's current guidelines broadly recommend CPR for all pulseless patients. However, this study adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that trauma-induced PEA requires a different approach. By focusing on restoring blood volume and controlling bleeding, paramedics and EMTs can improve outcomes for patients in hemorrhagic shock. As Dr. Greiffenstein puts it, “This research is a step toward more tailored and effective trauma care protocols. It's about understanding the unique physiology of trauma and adapting our interventions accordingly.” For EMS providers on the front lines, this study serves as a reminder to critically evaluate the tools and techniques we rely on in emergency care. While CPR remains a vital intervention in many scenarios, its role in trauma-induced PEA warrants careful reconsideration by physician medical directors. By staying informed about the latest research, we can continue to improve outcomes for the patients who depend on us most.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, as time goes on, the urgency and immediacy for helping the Iranian people lessens in the public mind and among the decision-makers. Already, the media are losing interest. This is very worrisome. The revolution in Iran cannot succeed without the U.S. Also, it's essential for U.S. national security to control Greenland. One idea would be to propose a 99-year lease of Greenland to the United States, granting military control, infrastructure development and access to Greenland's rare earth minerals in exchange for sharing benefits with Denmark and Greenlanders, with an automatic renewal option. This approach protects American interests logically and consistently. Later, the Wall Street Journal's accidental admission reveals that tariffs are not merely taxes but tools of foreign policy and diplomacy. The Constitution assigns Congress the power of the purse while granting the President plenary power over foreign policy and national security. Tariffs often intertwine these areas, making judicial intervention impractical and unwise, as courts would end up deciding case-by-case whether a tariff is more about national security or taxation, leading to endless litigation. The Supreme Court needs to reverse the lower court, avoid ruling on constitutionality at this stage, and allow Congress and the President to handle such matters through their respective powers rather than ceding decisions to judges. Afterward, in Lee Carter's opinion piece, President Trump's approval ratings do not indicate failure but instead demonstrate his successful delivery on campaign promises in a divided America. Rather than softening his approach like typical presidents, Trump has remained a consistent disruptor which has led to stable numbers with no significant erosion of his base. These ratings reflect identity-driven polarization sorting the country rather than persuading it. The legacy media fixates on the low headline numbers while refusing to recognize this stability as proof of Trump's authenticity and the nation's discomfort with unfiltered promise-keeping. In addition, Michael Doran, Director of the Middle East center at the Hudson Institute, urges Trump to seize billions of dollars in Iranian assets hidden in Dubai-based financial institutions. These shadow banks enable Iran to evade U.S. sanctions and fund its regime. Freezing or seizing these offshore accounts would deliver a powerful blow to Tehran comparable to a military strike, but with far lower risk and escalation potential, making it a preferable non-military pressure tactic.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Exploring ADHD and Perimenopausal Symptoms: Insights from a Recent StudyIn this episode, we examine the intersection of ADHD and perimenopausal symptoms using a recent cohort study from Iceland, Sweden, and the Netherlands. The study aimed to fill a knowledge gap about the impact of perimenopause on women with ADHD. Findings indicated that women with ADHD experience more severe and earlier onset perimenopausal symptoms compared to women without ADHD. The discussion highlights major findings, methodology, potential confounding factors, and the implications for healthcare professionals and women with ADHD.

Mexico is the United States' number one trading partner — yet it's sending fuel to Cuba, a communist dictatorship under U.S. sanctions. In this investigative breakdown, Kelsi Sheren exposes how Mexican taxpayer money, state-owned oil company Pemex, and quiet geopolitical shifts are propping up the Cuban regime after Venezuela's collapse. This isn't humanitarian aid. It's power, energy, and influence — and it raises a serious question: whose side is Mexico really on?Chapters00:00 Introduction and Overview of Current Events01:29 Cuba's Energy Crisis and Mexico's Role04:44 The Implications of Mexico's Support for Cuba09:00 The Balance of Power in the Western Hemisphere11:13 Conclusion and Future Considerations - - - - - - - - - - - -One Time Donation! - Paypal - https://paypal.me/brassandunityBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenLet's connect!Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@thekelsisherenperspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsiBurnsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsie_sheren/Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenTikTok - https://x.com/KelsiBurnsListen on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1O3yiobOjThKHtqyjviy1a?si=6c78bdc2325a43aeSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS - - - - - - - - - - - -MasterPeace - 10% off with code KELSI - MasterPeace.Health/KelsiKetone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://brassandunity.com- - - - - - - - - - - - -CHARITYHeroic Hearts Project - https://www.heroicheartsproject.orgDefenders of Freedom - https://www.defendersoffreedom.usBoot Campaign - https://bootcampaign.org
Concern about the possibility of a Chinese attack against Taiwan has surged in recent years. Wargames and research studies have focused primarily on identifying gaps in US and allied capabilities with the goal of strengthening deterrence. A relatively understudied question, however, is the potential consequences for China if a military operation against Taiwan were to fail. To address this gap, the German Marshall Fund led a study of the possible costs that China would incur across four different, but interrelated areas: the Chinese economy, the military, Chinese social stability, and international costs.GMF commissioned four papers on these key areas. We considered two scenarios that could realistically take place in the next five years. In the first scenario, a minor skirmish escalated into a multi-week maritime blockade of Taiwan by China. Although several dozen members of the Chinese and Taiwanese military were killed, US intervention eventually forced China to de-escalate. In the second scenario, a conflict escalated into a full-fledged invasion, with Chinese strikes on not only Taiwan but also U.S. forces in Japan and Guam. After several months of heavy fighting, Chinese forces were degraded and eventually withdrew after suffering many tens of thousands of casualties.The authors found that the costs to China of a failed military action against Taiwan would likely be considerable. We believe their findings are important and warrant wide dissemination. In this podcast, we'll discuss the report's major conclusions and implications. Then we'll talk about the potential impact of a failed Chinese attempt to take Taiwan on China's military capabilities and the possible international costs that Beijing could face. Our next two China Global podcasts will examine the implications of a failed military operation against Taiwan for China's economy and social stability.Our guests today are Zack Cooper and Joel Wuthnow. Zack is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and lecturer at Princeton University. Joel is a senior research fellow in the Center for the Study of Chinese Military Affairs within the Institute for National Strategic Studies at NDU. Joel's paper and this interview reflect only his personal views and not those of the National Defense University, the Department of War, or the US government.Timestamps: [00:00] Introduction [03:22] Implications for China, the United States, and Taiwan [06:31] Actions to Strengthen Deterrence [08:50] Evaluating Costs and Risks for Chinese Decisionmakers[11:46] Lessons Learned for the PLA [14:05] Steps to Avoid Another Attack [17:14] Intensifying Frictions between Party and Military?

In this episode of The Mind–Gut Conversation, Dr. Emeran Mayer sits down with Tim Spector, MD, to discuss the implications of a landmark gut microbiome study involving more than 34,000 participants — one of the largest and most comprehensive efforts to date to understand what a “healthy” gut microbiome actually looks like.Drawing from the study's novel design and findings, they explore why defining gut health is far more complex than identifying a short list of “good” or “bad” microbes. The conversation unpacks what large-scale microbiome data can, and cannot tell us about health, disease prevention, and the growing interest in microbiome testing as a tool for personalized nutrition and healthcare.Together, they examine the deep connections between diet and the microbiome, highlighting why dietary patterns, particularly fiber- and prebiotic-rich foods, may play a more meaningful role than many commonly marketed probiotic products. They also discuss the challenges of translating microbiome research into actionable guidance for consumers and clinicians, and why education and context are essential as microbiome testing becomes more widely available.This wide-ranging discussion blends cutting-edge microbiome science with practical insight, offering a grounded perspective on where the field is headed and how emerging research may eventually shape everyday health decisions.Topics discussed include:• What a large-scale microbiome study reveals about gut health• Why defining a “healthy” microbiome is more complex than expected• The limitations of labeling microbes as simply good or bad• The role of diet, fiber, and prebiotics in shaping the microbiome• The promises and pitfalls of microbiome testing• How microbiome research may influence future healthcare practicesThis is a practical, evidence-based discussion for anyone interested in gut health, whether navigating dietary choices personally, exploring microbiome testing, or working in a clinical or research setting.Please leave any comments or feedback on the episode — we'd love to hear your thoughts.-------------------------------Chapters:00:00 Introduction02:05 The Landmark Study Overview05:29 Defining Healthy Gut Microbiomes10:02 The Good vs. Bad Microbes13:59 Implications for Diet and Health18:37 The Role of Prebiotics and Probiotics23:27 Future Directions in Microbiome Research27:49 Challenges in Proving Causality31:51 The Future of Gut Health Testing36:36 Future Outlook in Traditional Medicine40:10 Microbiome Testing in Clinical Practice43:20 Regulation, Wellness, and Medical Use46:10 Personalizing Diet Through the Microbiome48:50 Final Reflections

They explain the differences between static, dynamic, ballistic, and PNF stretching exercise, and discuss both the immediate and long-term benefits—such as increased range of motion, decreased pain, and reduced muscle stiffness. The hosts clarify common myths, noting that even the best stretching routines alone don't build muscle, prevent injuries, or fix posture.
