Iceland has long kept the EU at arm's length. But Russia's war in Ukraine and President Trump's threats to take control of Greenland have prompted a rethink, with growing calls for Iceland to move closer to the bloc. Also, it's been a tense week in Haiti after nearly 50 people were killed and over 50 more were kidnapped in a coordinated gang attack in a town outside the capital, Port-au-Prince. And, Gotham FC's openly gay star striker, Esther Gonzalez, has left the New York team and has now signed on to play for a Premier League team in Saudi Arabia, where her marriage is illegal.

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com Read Dr. Danger Zone by Kolja Spöri at https://www.amazon.com/dp/3903713023 Doug and Matt interview elite traveler Kolja Spöri about his new book, Dr. Danger Zone, a collection of 25 highlight stories from a lifetime of travel to remote and dangerous places, paired with his on-the-ground conclusions that often contradict mainstream narratives. Kolja recounts driving Russia's northern ice roads in extreme cold, visiting conflict zones and politically sensitive regions, and seeking out famous "watering hole" hotels, including Haiti's Hotel Oloffson. The conversation shifts to his views on Turkey's development under Erdoğan, increasing surveillance and political repression in Western Europe—especially Germany—and his belief that Europe is being pushed toward a wider war with Russia while migration is used as a weapon against European civilization. They also discuss his Libya trip during the Arab Spring, his connections that enabled access to places like Chechnya, the FARC, and Mindanao, a rap song made about his life, and his Formula 1 sponsorship career. 00:00 Meet Kolja Spöri 01:09 Inside Dr Danger Zone 04:33 Languages and Turkey 07:48 Europe Turning Point 10:24 War With Russia Fears 15:10 Migration and Culture Clash 21:32 Ice Road Adventure 25:17 Haiti Hotel Legends 27:41 Goma Danger Factors 30:22 Entering Libya During Spring 32:11 Armed Kids Reality 32:51 Planning Warzone Access 33:36 Libya Benghazi Insights 35:16 Borders And Breakups 36:40 Chechnya To FARC 39:00 Mindanao And Militants 41:20 Rap Tribute Breakdown 45:31 Karabakh And Azerbaijan 47:15 Formula One Backstory 49:05 Next Chapter Reflections 50:13 Book Plug And Farewell

It's Thursday, August 27th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gang members killed 50 people in church Gang members attacked a church in Haiti on Sunday, killing nearly 50 people. Displaced people were sheltering in the building of Church of the Ark of the New Covenant. The evangelical church is located near Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince. Up to 90 percent of the area is controlled by gangs. The gang members killed 47 people and injured another 22 people.  Please pray for Christians in Haiti who face much of the widespread gang violence in the country.  In John 10:10, Jesus said, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” Germany first country to display Muslim prayer times on official signs Evangelical Focus reports a German town became the first in the country to display Muslim prayer times on its official signs. The municipality of Penzberg previously listed Sunday service times for the Catholic and Lutheran parishes in town. Signage now includes prayer times for the local mosque established in 1990. Muslims with a migrant background make up about eight percent of Germany's population, up from five percent in 2016. New U.S. economic sanctions against Iran The Trump administration announced aggressive economic sanctions against Iran on Monday.  Operation Economic Outcast aims to cut Iran's financial connections with the rest of the world. The sanctions will also affect any country doing business with the regime.  Listen to comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. BESSENT: “We want to make clear here today that no one is above the reach of U.S. sanctions. That if they facilitate transactions and are part of the ecosystem that turns Iranian oil into money, into repression, they will be targeted.” Facebook/Instagram pay $18 billion over addictive algorithms for kids Meta Platforms agreed to pay up to $18 billion over the next decade in a settlement announced yesterday. Nearly every U.S. state accused the social media company of designing its platforms to be addictive to children. The tech giant is being held accountable for the role its platforms played in undermining children's mental health. These platforms include Facebook and Instagram.  California will get the largest sum of $1.5 billion, but several other states will still collect hundreds of millions of dollars each over the decade. The money will be used to pay for legal fees, mental health care for children, after-school programs, and education about the risks of social media use. According to the Associated Press, Meta will eliminate push notifications during weekday school hours and bring in “robust” age-assurance measures and “age-appropriate” content controls to prevent bullying and harmful material about eating disorders and self-harm. The case also argued that Meta violated federal laws by routinely collecting data on children under 13 without their parents' consent. As part of the settlement, Meta agreed to limit teenagers' use of Instagram and Facebook to a couple of hours a day. 1,235 assisted suicide deaths in California last year The state of California reported 1,235 assisted suicide deaths last year. The death toll is up nearly 150 percent over the past five years.  The California End of Life Option Act allows adults, expected to live six months or less, to obtain life-ending drugs. The state has authorized the deaths of at least 6,758 people since the law went into effect in 2016. 3 California homeschoolers sue over prohibition from participation Three homeschool families petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court last week after California excluded them from a state program. Some of California's tuition-free charter schools allow homeschool academy programs. However, families cannot use state funds from these charter schools for religious curriculum.  In one case, the state rejected a grammar exercise simply because it used the sentence: “God sends the rain to help plants grow.”  Acts 14:17 says God “did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from Heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.” Protestant churches are multigenerational Most Protestant churches report being multigenerational.  A survey from Lifeway Research found 91 percent of churchgoers agree their church has a good number of active members from all generations. Seventy-eight percent of pastors also agree.  Being multigenerational was more frequently reported by pastors of larger churches, younger pastors, and evangelical pastors.  Dolly Parton, who died at 80, championed a false gospel And finally, PARTON:  “Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'” Dolly Parton, the country singer, actress, and businesswoman, died peacefully at her home in Nashville, Tennessee on Tuesday. She was 80 years old. Known as the Queen of Country, the singer-songwriter is among one of the best-selling music artists of all time.  She wrote and sang this song in 1974 which Whitney Houston would later famously cover.  PARTON: “And I will always love you I will always love you.” Parton grew up in a Pentecostal church and described herself as a person of faith.  PARTON: “My grandpa was a preacher. So, my grandpa pastored this little church called the House of Prayer. He was a very positive, uplifting person. And I learned to love Jesus, and learned that Jesus loved me when I was a little bitty kid. “And all those things that Mama used to say, you know, that through God all things are possible. I kept all those things kind of tucked away into my subconscious mind and in my heart. And those are the things that have helped me through the years. I never do anything that I don't pray about it, and I always ask God to lead me and to show me and direct me into what I'm doing.” She was married to her husband Carl Thomas Dean for nearly 60 years until his death in 2025. As a philanthropist, Parton supported children's literacy and medical research. Sadly, she was also known as an advocate for unbiblical causes like homosexual behavior and faux homosexual marriage.  Appearing with Larry King, she defended homosexuality. KING: “Didn't you recently, though, throw support to the [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender] community?” PARTON: “Oh, I've always encouraged, not encouraged. They've made me the poster child I think only because I'm so outspoken as far as just being accepting of people in general.  “I do not believe that we should criticize and judge other people. I think we should be accepting and loving. We are all God's children. We are who we are, and we should allow, be allowed to be who we are.” Kate Newman, a Christian YouTuber, objected to Parton's bad theology, referencing John 1:12. NEWMAN: “We are not all children of God, contrary to popular belief. We receive the Spirit of adoption from God when we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and we are led by His Holy Spirit. But until then, we're actually all children of the devil.” Larry King asked Dolly Parton this follow-up question. KING: “Did any of the faith-based communities that deeply believe the other way take umbrage with you?” PARTON: “Oh, absolutely. KING: “They did?” PARTON: “Oh, yes. I get it all the time. I keep saying, ‘Well, if you're the fine Christian that you think you are, why are you judging people? That's God's job. We're not God. We're not judges.' You know, we're supposed to love one another. We're supposed to not judge.  “If you're gay, you're gay. If you're straight, you're straight. And you should be allowed to be, you know, how how you are and who you are.” In 2024, Ericka Andersen wrote a column for The Federalist entitled “There's nothing loving about Dolly Parton's false gospel.” She argued that, “Parton's version of love, which includes condoning immoral sexual behavior  is unaligned with God's vision for humanity. Like so many secularized spiritual leaders, Parton equates love with agreement, but the two are not reciprocal. Love doesn't mean we must accept sinfulness as good to avoid hurting someone's feelings. “To be sure, the culture is on a constant witch hunt for those who would call homosexuality sinful. I understand wanting to avoid the avalanche of criticism, but calling sin out by name isn't judgment. It's adhering to Scripture. “She's right that all should be treated with love and kindness, but when we refuse to label sin a sin, we're doing more harm than good.  The gospel of Dolly Parton is popular with the masses, but don't bank your eternity on it.” Leviticus 18:22 says, “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 27th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

China, the biggest buyer of Iranian oil, says it opposes "illegal" unilateral sanctions after the US warned that countries that continued to do business with Iran would face consequences. A foreign ministry spokesman said economic warfare and maximum pressure tactics did not help resolve problems but would only fuel further conflict. Also: At least 47 people are killed in a gang raid on a hillside community in Haiti. A new report predicts extreme rainfall and flooding in east Africa caused by El Nino that could leave up to three million people displaced. Why China is spending hundreds of billions of dollars to grow its robotic workforce, and Australia bans chart music made mostly by artificial intelligence.

This week on the Tuesday People podcast, as Mitch Albom sends his children from Haiti back to college, he reflects on the seasons of our lives and how quickly we move through them. From the springtime of youth to the later seasons that come with age, it's natural to sometimes wish we could cycle backward. But there's no going back, only moving forward. We lived those seasons, and they helped make us who we are. Instead of longing for what has passed, Mitch reminds us to look toward the seasons we haven't experienced yet and all that may still be waiting for us. Wherever you are in the cycle of life, be present for it, embrace it, and make this season the best one you possibly can. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Ten days after the 2010 Haiti earthquake, she was alone, no safety plan, no contacts and no evacuation plan. Julie Colombino Billingham had quit her job, sold her Florida home and landed in Port-au-Prince with only $7,000 in her pocket. Many days, she only ate an avocado and drank a single coca-cola.THE PIVOT POINT: It came when a woman grabbed her arm: "I don't want your water, I need a job." As a trained disaster responder, she experienced the brutal truth: handing out free aid destroys local economies by undercutting local businesses and local job. JOB CREATION: That moment shifted Julie's focus from temporary aid to job creation and ultimately building an off-grid factory making beautiful handbags and accessories by hand. I've already bought one. Loved it so much, another is on its way. JULIE'S IMPACT: Her stories are absolutely heart wrenching at the same time inspiring. A few of my favorite moments: The Mindset: Her co-founder Jolina, after losing everything: "We're going to take back everything that the earthquake stole."Operational Grit: After four stolen generators, Julie converted the entire facility to solar power to survive total infrastructure collapse.The Scale: Today, a native executive team is tackling a 79% regional unemployment rate and selling products in Nordstrom. From Loss to Legacy is Julie's new book. Please take a look!

It's Marvel Monday and Wakanda faces its greatest challenge yet! ABOUT BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER The people of Wakanda fight to protect their home from intervening world powers as they mourn the death of King T'Challa. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER November 11, 2022 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER Director: Ryan Coogler Writers: Ryan Coogler, Joe Robert Cole, Stan Lee Cast: Letitia Wright as Shuri Lupita Nyong'o as Nakia Danai Gurira as Okoye Angela Bassett as Ramonda BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS T'Challa, the Black Panther himself, is suffering from a terminal illness. His sister, Shuri, believes the heart-shaped herb that gives the Black Panther his powers could save him, but the herb was destroyed. Shuri desperately tries to recreate it synthetically, but she can't do it in time, and T'Challa dies. A year later, Wakanda is facing pressure from countries around the world to share its vibranium. Other nations are even trying to break in and steal it! Queen Ramonda encourages Shuri to continue working on the heart-shaped herb so they can create a new Black Panther to help protect Wakanda, but Shuri says she doesn't think Wakanda needs a Black Panther. A U.S. expedition team is using a vibranium detector when they get a hit beneath the Atlantic Ocean. Before they can recover it, they are attacked and killed by a group of blue-skinned, water-breathing beings and their sound weapons. They are led by someone named Namor. Only knowing about the vibranium detection, the CIA thinks it must've been Wakanda. Namor shows up to confront Ramonda and Shuri. He gives them an ultimatum: hand over the scientist who created the detector to get them off his back or else he will attack Wakanda. Shuri and Okoye learn from CIA Agent Ross that the scientist who created said detector is someone named Riri Williams. Riri turns out to be just an MIT student. They track her down at the university, but before they can get her to safety, they are pursued by the FBI and Namor's warriors. Shuri is taken underwater to meet with Namor who shows her his home and what makes it so special. Namor explains that he has grown bitter toward the surface world because of the slavery and genocide suffered by his people. He proposes that Wakanda join him in an alliance against the rest of the world, while threatening to destroy Wakanda if they refuse. Shuri and Riri are rescued but two of Namor's guards are killed in the process. He's not pleased and Namor attacks Wakanda. During the attack, Queen Ramonda dies and Namor vows to return with his entire army. Shuri discovers that she can use a remnant of the herb that gave Namor's people their superhuman abilities to recreate the heart-shaped herb. She takes it herself and gains the powers of the Black Panther. Shuri returns wearing a new Black Panther suit and is accepted by the other tribes as the new Black Panther. Shuri is determined to get revenge on Namor for killing her mom. The battle begins and Shuri manages to trap Namor and make him weaker. The two eventually crash onto a desert beach and fight one-on-one. Shuri gains the upper hand, but she has a vision of Ramonda, who reminds her to choose a better path. Instead of killing Namor, Shuri offers him a chance to surrender and form a peaceful alliance. Namor accepts, ending the battle. Shuri plants more heart-shaped herbs to ensure that the Black Panther mantle will survive into the future. While she is away, M'Baku challenges for the throne of Wakanda. Shuri then travels to Haiti to visit Nakia. There, she burns her funeral robe, finally allowing herself to grieve for T'Challa and honoring Ramonda's wishes. Shuri learns that Nakia and T'Challa secretly had a son, whom Nakia has been raising in Haiti. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

It's Free Speech Friday, and Joe Pags is going EVERYWHERE. He starts with Boston and Massachusetts politicians he says have completely lost the plot, including lawmakers proudly defending transgender athletes competing in women's sports. Then it's time for some incredible music history: Michael Jackson wanted Prince on "Bad," so why did Prince turn down what could've been one of the biggest duets EVER? Pags reveals the hilarious reason before flashing back to the glory days of MTV, talking Stevie Wonder, and revisiting Shaq's wild story that left him wondering whether Stevie can actually see. The phones light up before Pags turns to Vice President JD Vance campaigning in Ohio, playing his favorite moments and explaining why he loves seeing the VP get out and speak directly to Americans. Plus, the first deportation flight lands in Haiti following the TPS suspension—and somehow the crew ends up debating one of America's greatest mysteries: Why do we write dates backwards compared with England?

This interview is with Elishca Charles of Kann. In this interview, Elishca discusses her journey through hospitality and what it means to her.Elishca talks about her early aspirations of becoming a military doctor, studying public health in college. When Elishca realized that career might not bring her the most joy, she started working in restaurants and never left. Elishca started learning about wine with her coworkers and continued educating herself from there. After the pandemic, that restaurant could not keep her in the same capacity, so she switched to the hotel industry as a food and beverage manager where she got experience in event planning. Throughout this time, Elishca was growing her wine knowledge and wanted to work in a winery. Visiting Oregon awhile back, Elishca decided to make the move in 2023 and secured a job at Domaine Serene.Elishca discusses her experiences within the Willamette Valley and her transition to Kann. Elishca had always loved Oregon Pinot Noir and grew a deeper appreciation for the Willamette Valley working for Domaine Serene. She hoped people left the winery feeling curious to try more wines and exposed to what is in our backyard. From there, Elishca was offered the opportunity to interview with Kann for a general manager position. Elishca had dined at Kann previously, and had dreamed of working there. Kann combined Elishca's Haitian culture and the food she grew up eating with her love of wine. Later in the interview, Elishca talks about what hospitality means to her. Elishca defines hospitality as an unwritten and unspoken language. She believes that hospitality is felt immediately when walking into a new place. She notes an experience she had with her grandmother in Haiti who did not share the same language. Elishca explains that her grandmother communicated through food and hospitality, something she takes with her throughout the industry.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Kann in Portland on August 18, 2026.

What if you died, got pronounced dead by doctors, buried by your family, and then showed up 18 years later with one hell of an excuse for missing Thanksgiving? Enter the bizarre true story of Clairvius Narcisse, the Haitian man who allegedly became a real-life zombie after being poisoned, buried alive, dug back up, drugged, and forced into labor.We explore the terrifying history of Haitian zombies and Vodou, Wade Davis and his controversial search for zombie powder, and the surprisingly real science behind pufferfish toxin, tetrodotoxin, Datura, paralysis, and premature burial. Could ancient knowledge of neurotoxins actually turn someone into a living zombie, or did science take a fascinating Haitian tradition and run a little too far with it? Plus, we examine the skeptics and competing explanations that make the answer considerably messier than "dead people don't walk."Poison fish, stolen souls, questionable pharmacology, family land disputes, zombie plantations, and perhaps the worst return-to-work story in human history...

This Day in Legal History: Clinton Testifies Before the Grand JuryOn August 17, 1998, President Bill Clinton became the first sitting president to testify before a grand jury as the subject of its investigation. He gave his testimony via closed-circuit television from the White House to Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's grand jury, concerning his relationship with a White House intern—and that same evening, he addressed the nation to admit he had misled the public about it.The legal machinery that brought a president to that moment is worth understanding. It began, improbably, with a civil lawsuit: Paula Jones's sexual-harassment suit, which produced the 1997 Supreme Court decision in Clinton v. Jones holding that a sitting president is not immune from civil litigation over unofficial conduct and can be deposed while in office. That deposition, and the questions in it, are what put Clinton's statements under oath—and when those statements collided with what Starr's investigation uncovered, the independent counsel built a case around perjury and obstruction of justice. Clinton, carefully, insisted his earlier answers had been “legally accurate,” a phrase that became emblematic of the entire episode.The significance of August 17, 1998 is layered. It led directly to Clinton's impeachment by the House on charges of perjury and obstruction—only the second presidential impeachment in American history—and his acquittal by the Senate. But its deeper legal legacies are the ones that still echo: Clinton v. Jones established that the presidency is not a shield against civil accountability for private conduct, a principle you can hear resonating in today's fights over presidential immunity, and the whole saga became a national seminar on perjury, executive privilege, and the limits of the independent-counsel model, which Congress let expire the following year. It's a fitting anniversary for a day when the relationship between political power and prosecutorial judgment is, once again, at the center of the news.Opening statements begin today in Las Vegas in the murder trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, nearly thirty years after the 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur. Davis, 63, is charged with murder with a deadly weapon with intent to promote a criminal gang. He has pleaded not guilty and faces life in prison if convicted.A sixteen-person jury has been selected, and prosecutors are expected to call roughly forty witnesses. The witness list includes Suge Knight, who was driving the car in which Shakur was shot, and Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo, who responded to the shooting as a Las Vegas police sergeant in 1996.Prosecutors say Davis was the “shot caller” behind a quickly assembled plan to retaliate after Shakur and members of his entourage beat Davis's nephew at the MGM Grand earlier that evening. The government's theory places the killing within a larger conflict involving rival street gangs.The obvious problem for prosecutors is time. Trying a murder case three decades after the crime means dealing with faded memories, unavailable witnesses, and physical evidence that may have been lost or degraded. What eventually revived the case, however, was Davis himself.Over the years, Davis publicly discussed his involvement in Shakur's killing in interviews and in a memoir. Those statements now form an important part of the prosecution's case. They also give the defense an obvious line of attack: statements made years later for publicity, money, or street credibility are not necessarily reliable accounts of what actually happened.That makes Davis's own words one of the most important legal issues to watch. Prosecutors do not merely have to show that he repeatedly claimed involvement; they have to persuade jurors that those claims, considered alongside the remaining evidence, prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The trial is therefore as much about the reliability of decades-old admissions as it is about solving one of the most famous unsolved murders in American popular culture.Tupac shooting trial begins with opening statements | ReutersWashington Post · PBS NewsHourAttorney General Todd Blanche is publicly backing U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro after President Trump criticized her office for dropping a vandalism prosecution involving the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Blanche said he “absolutely” supports Pirro, the top federal prosecutor in Washington. The comments came after Trump criticized her decision to abandon the prosecution of former Olympian David Hearn and others accused of damaging the Reflecting Pool.The case grew out of a roughly $15 million renovation project that the administration pushed to complete before July 4. After an algae bloom appeared and portions of the pool's lining began peeling, Pirro's office brought vandalism charges. Prosecutors later dropped the case after concluding that the damage resulted from problems with the renovation rather than deliberate sabotage.Trump was not happy with that conclusion. He publicly called on Pirro to revisit what he described as her “hastily made decision,” and the White House reportedly asked the Justice Department to consider whether additional charges were available.Blanche is now defending the prosecutor's decision. He said it was unfair to judge Pirro based on a single case when her office had made its decision based on the evidence available to prosecutors.The legal principle here is prosecutorial discretion. Prosecutors have substantial authority to decide whether the available evidence justifies bringing or continuing criminal charges, and those decisions are supposed to turn on the law and evidence rather than the political preferences of the president. That principle takes on additional importance because Blanche, who previously served as Trump's personal lawyer, faced questions during his confirmation about whether he could operate the Justice Department independently.There is an important qualification. Blanche also said Trump supports Pirro, despite the president's public criticism of her handling of this case. Still, an attorney general publicly defending a prosecutor's evidence-based decision against presidential criticism is a meaningful test of how much independence federal prosecutors will have when their charging decisions conflict with the White House.US Attorney General Blanche publicly backs Pirro after Trump criticism over Reflecting Pool | Reuters · US NewsAOLA federal judge has cleared the way for the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status for roughly 1,100 Somalis living in the United States.U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs in Boston lifted a pause she had imposed in March on the Department of Homeland Security's termination of Somalia's TPS designation. The change largely reflects what has happened at the Supreme Court since Burroughs entered that earlier order.Temporary Protected Status allows people from designated countries experiencing armed conflict, natural disasters, or other extraordinary conditions to remain and work legally in the United States for a limited period. The protection does not itself provide permanent immigration status, and the executive branch periodically decides whether conditions in a particular country continue to justify the designation.The administration maintains that conditions in Somalia have improved enough to end TPS. Opponents point to continuing violence in the country, including fighting involving al-Shabaab militants, as evidence that returning people to Somalia remains dangerous.Four Somali plaintiffs and advocacy organizations also argued that the administration's decision was motivated by racial discrimination, citing President Trump's previous comments about Somalis. Burroughs rejected that discrimination claim at this stage, although the broader litigation continues.The most important legal development, though, happened above the district court. In June, the Supreme Court allowed the administration to terminate similar protections involving people from Haiti and Syria. Burroughs concluded that the Supreme Court's intervention changed the legal landscape and limited her ability to continue blocking the Somali termination.That illustrates how a Supreme Court ruling can affect considerably more than the people immediately involved in a particular case. Once the Court signaled that the executive branch has broad authority to terminate TPS designations, lower courts confronting similar challenges had less room to intervene. For the roughly 1,100 Somalis affected here, that means a temporary immigration protection that allowed them to remain legally in the United States can now be withdrawn while the underlying legal fight continues.US judge clears way for Trump to end Somalis' deportation protections | ReutersUS News · Fox News This is a public episode.

We talk with immigration lawyer Emmanuel Olawale about the consequences facing immigrants after the Trump administration abruptly ended the Temporary Protected Status program. TPS was designed to provide temporary protection for people from countries experiencing disaster, conflict or severe instability, but it did not create a direct path to permanent residency or citizenship.The shortcomings of TPS are confronting some 250,000 to 300,000 immigrants in the U.S. whose lawful status has abruptly ended, including about 20,000 to 30,000 Haitians who have lived, worked, built businesses, and raised children in Springfield, Ohio, for years and are now at risk of being deportedThe discussion highlights the tension between federal immigration policy and the reality of conditions in Haiti, where political instability, gang violence, limited public services, and safety concerns remain severe. As Olawale puts it, TPS is “a temporary solution to a permanent problem,” emphasizing that Congress failed to create a durable legal pathway for long-term TPS holders. The conversation also explores the difference between TPS, asylum, refugee status, and family-based immigration relief.Olawale explains how immigration enforcement is unfolding locally, including ICE reporting requirements, ankle monitoring, expedited immigration court procedures, and pressure on immigration judges. He argues that shifting policies and administrative practices have made immigration law more difficult and unpredictable for attorneys and clients alike.The episode addresses the role of political rhetoric and misinformation in shaping public attitudes toward immigrant communities. The administration's use of dehumanizing language for immigrants attempts to make harsh enforcement policies easier to justify.The situation in Springfield is an example of how a temporary immigration policy like TPS leaves families vulnerable when political winds change.

Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. For retired Army veteran Dr. PJ, known to many as Pastor Jeff, the wounds that changed his life came from a sexual assault committed by someone who outranked him during his military career. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. The experience left injuries that could not be seen. Combined with other difficulties from his military service and personal life, the assault contributed to years of emotional pain and an eventual diagnosis of PTSD. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio His story, however, is not only about what happened to him. It is about what he did afterward. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Jeff Moffett, also known as Dr. PJ and Pastor Jeff, is a guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. The host originally connected with him through the Clubhouse social-audio app, where Pastor Jeff's compassionate voice and message of gratitude stood out. Today, this Army vet's trauma recovery and message reaches people struggling with grief, abuse, PTSD, isolation, relationships, and some of life's most difficult questions. He speaks because he knows silence can become another prison. A Different Kind of Military Trauma When people hear that a veteran has been diagnosed with PTSD, they often assume it resulted from combat, explosions, firefights, or the constant threat of death in a war zone. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. That was not the primary source of Pastor Jeff's trauma. He was sexually assaulted during his military career by someone who held a higher rank. The imbalance of authority added another layer to the pain. It was not simply an act of violence; it was also a devastating betrayal within an institution built on trust, discipline, leadership, and accountability. Military sexual trauma can affect every part of a survivor's life. It may influence personal relationships, professional confidence, faith, emotional stability, and the ability to trust other people. Survivors may wrestle with shame, anger, anxiety, depression, nightmares, or the belief that they should have somehow prevented what happened. For Pastor Jeff, the assault combined with other experiences from his life and military service, eventually creating problems that could no longer be ignored. He had been hurt, but he refused to allow the person who assaulted him to control the rest of his life. His journey would take him “from trauma to triumph, from broken to builder, and from abused to affirming others.” The PTSD Diagnosis PTSD can develop after a person experiences or witnesses a terrifying, violent, or deeply distressing event. Although the condition is frequently associated with combat veterans, it can also result from sexual assault, domestic violence, serious accidents, childhood abuse, violent crime, or other traumatic experiences. The symptoms can affect both the mind and body. A person may experience intrusive memories, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, sleep disturbances, anger, avoidance, or an overwhelming sense of danger. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. Pastor Jeff's diagnosis helped give a name to struggles that had already been affecting his life. A diagnosis, however, did not instantly erase the pain. Trauma recovery required honesty, faith, reflection, support, and the willingness to face what had happened. His story demonstrates that seeking help is not an admission of weakness. For a veteran accustomed to discipline, strength, and service, acknowledging emotional wounds can require tremendous courage. Pastor Jeff began learning how to live beyond the assault without pretending that it had never happened. He found relief and developed practices that continue to help him today. His healing became the foundation of his work with others. Pastor Jeff believes that “healing prepares the heart.” That conviction is central to his ministry, speaking career, grief consulting, relationship work, and personal life. Before a title, a platform, or public recognition can have meaning, a person must examine what remains unsettled within. The work begins with what someone has made peace with, and what still needs attention. Healing does not necessarily mean forgetting. It does not require a survivor to minimize the offense, excuse the offender, or deny the damage. Instead, it may mean reaching a place where the trauma no longer controls every decision, relationship, or expectation. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. Pastor Jeff speaks from the ground on which he has personally stood. His message is not based solely on academic theories or motivational slogans. It comes from experiencing abuse, living with PTSD, confronting grief, and rebuilding a meaningful life. He knows what it means to feel broken. He also knows what it means to become a builder. From Victim Mindset to Victor Mindset One of the most important parts of Pastor Jeff's message is the movement from a victim mindset to a victor mindset. That does not mean denying that someone was victimized. He was sexually assaulted, and the responsibility belongs to the person who committed the assault. Recognizing the truth is essential. The transformation occurs when the survivor decides that victimization will not become a permanent identity. Pastor Jeff helps people recognize their pain without surrendering their future to it. His approach encourages survivors to reclaim their voice, purpose, dignity, and ability to choose what happens next. His message is not that recovery is easy. It is that recovery is possible. He challenges people to look beyond what was done to them and ask what they can build from the life that remains. That transition, from victim to victor, is not a single event. It may involve counseling, prayer, medical care, spiritual guidance, supportive relationships, difficult conversations, and daily decisions. Progress may be uneven, but every step can move a survivor closer to freedom. Pastor Jeff's work also focuses heavily on grief. “Grief isolates us, but gratitude reconnects us,” he says. Grief can make people feel separated from the rest of the world. Friends and family may not understand the depth of the loss. Some people avoid conversations because they do not know what to say. Others offer quick solutions to pain that cannot be quickly repaired. Grief does not only follow a death. People may grieve the loss of safety, trust, health, identity, career, marriage, friendship, faith, or the life they believed they would have. A survivor of sexual assault may grieve the person they were before the assault. A veteran may grieve the end of military service or the loss of the trust once placed in a leader. Someone living with PTSD may grieve the sense of peace they once took for granted. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. Pastor Jeff teaches that gratitude can become a bridge back to connection. Gratitude does not erase grief or turn tragedy into something good. It helps people recognize that pain is not the only thing still present in their lives. Love, purpose, faith, relationships, opportunities, and acts of kindness may still exist alongside sorrow. This perspective is at the heart of his book, Embracing Gratitude in Grief: A Transformative Perspective. An Army Veteran, Pastor, and International Speaker Pastor Jeff's work has taken him far beyond a single pulpit. He is an international inspirational speaker and grief consultant who has addressed audiences across the United States and in Honduras, Haiti, Germany, Kuwait, Afghanistan, and Africa. In Haiti, his service took shape through “Church with No Walls,” reflecting his belief that ministry does not have to be confined to a building. He has trained and mentored more than 100 ministers around the world. He also formerly served as pastor of Historic Hosannah Missionary Baptist Church in Augusta, Georgia. His professional life reflects an unusual range of experience. In addition to his ministry and speaking, he is a marriage and relationship facilitator, real estate investor, videographer, and consultant. Each role gives him another way to connect with people and help them see possibilities beyond their present pain. As a retired Army veteran and recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award, Pastor Jeff has been recognized for a life of service. Yet the titles and honors are not the center of his story. The deeper story is how a man who experienced abuse learned to affirm others. His Books Carry the Message Forward Pastor Jeff is also the author of several books that explore grief, gratitude, faith, war, prayer, and personal reflection. His works include: Embracing Gratitude in Grief: A Transformative Perspective Conversations with God from the War in Afghanistan, a 31-day devotional Each book offers another window into his experiences and beliefs. The devotional born from the war in Afghanistan reflects the private spiritual conversations that can occur when a person faces uncertainty, danger, isolation, and questions without easy answers. The companion journal invites readers to examine their own experiences and conversations with God. For readers facing grief or PTSD, his writing provides something more than information. It offers companionship from someone who understands that healing rarely follows a straight line. Faith, Prayer, and the Work of Recovery Faith has played a vital role in Pastor Jeff's life, but he does not present prayer as a way to avoid the difficult work of recovery. To pray can be part of confronting pain rather than hiding from it. For many survivors, spiritual questions become part of the trauma. They may wonder why the assault happened, where God was at the time, or why the emotional consequences continue years later. Pastor Jeff's message leaves room for those questions. His life demonstrates that faith and professional help do not have to compete with each other. Prayer, therapy, medical treatment, community support, honest conversation, and personal responsibility can work together. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. Recovery may require survivors to use every healthy resource available. Pastor Jeff encourages people to speak, seek support, and stop treating emotional pain as a private failure. His willingness to discuss military sexual assault also helps challenge the silence that has historically surrounded the issue. He Speaks So Others Can Find Their Voice There is power in a survivor telling the truth. Every time Pastor Jeff speaks about what happened, he may reach another veteran who has never told anyone. His words may connect with a man who believes sexual assault is something he must endure silently. They may help a woman who fears she will not be believed or a family struggling to understand why someone they love has changed. His story also carries an important message for military leaders: rank must never become a shield for abuse. Survivors need to know that the assault was not their fault, that PTSD is not a character defect, and that seeking help does not diminish their service. By speaking openly, Pastor Jeff transforms a deeply painful part of his life into a source of hope for others. Sharing His Message Across Every Platform Pastor Jeff's complete interview can be heard on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. The episode is available through the show's website and across major digital and social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartradio and more. These platforms allow his message to reach people wherever they are, at home, in a car, at work, or searching late at night for proof that someone understands. The Podcast gives Pastor Jeff the space to discuss his military career, sexual assault, PTSD diagnosis, struggles, recovery, faith, books, and the work he continues to do today. His story is difficult, but it is not without hope. A Life That Became Larger Than the Trauma Pastor Jeff cannot change what was done to him. He can, however, determine what he does with the life that followed. He became an author, pastor, mentor, international speaker, grief consultant, relationship facilitator, investor, videographer, and advocate for people searching for healing. He turned private pain into a public mission, not because the trauma was good, but because his future still had value. Army Vet's Trauma Recovery and Message: He Speaks About PTSD, Sexual Assault, Faith, and Life. Military trauma does not always begin on a battlefield. That may be the most important part of this Army vet's trauma recovery and message. He speaks because silence protects pain. He writes because someone may discover hope inside a Book. He helps people pray because faith can provide strength when answers remain out of reach. He discusses PTSD because veterans and other survivors should not have to struggle alone. He talks about gratitude because grief can isolate even the strongest person. Most of all, Pastor Jeff reminds people that what happened to them does not have to be the final definition of their Life. His journey continues, from trauma to triumph, from broken to builder, and from abused to affirming others. For anyone living with the aftermath of assault, grief, or PTSD, his message is clear: Healing is possible. A voice can be reclaimed. A life can be rebuilt. And even after profound pain, a person can still become a source of hope for someone else.

Elder Greg Cryer closed the series with the road his family traveled up the mountain to Turpin, Haiti, more than ten years ago. It had a destination and it had been cleared, but it was never paved, and the ride was all ruts and gravel and dust. He said many of us travel the Christian life the same way: Father and Son, but no Spirit. Working from Ephesians 2:8-10 and the good works God prepared beforehand, Greg walked three stops. First, I am secure. John 1:12-13 gives us a birthright as children of God, and Ephesians 1:13 says the Spirit seals us. Satan's lie is that we are insecure. Second, I am significant. 1 Corinthians 12 says the Spirit gifts each of us for the common good, and no gift outranks another. Here the lie sends us to people, circumstances, or self instead of Christ. Third, I am dependent. 2 Corinthians 12:9 says power is perfected in weakness, and we resist that because independence lets us keep control. Drawing on Dr. Bill Yarger's Biblical View of You, Greg said we can never earn God's love or lose it.

It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches.  Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia.  A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more.  Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence.  Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association.  Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs.  Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy.  A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000.   The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group.  U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors.  Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 13th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Built on the grounds of a former cotton plantation, the Tuskegee Institute, founded by Booker T. Washington, offered agricultural and industrial education as a strategy for Black self-determination. There―and in many other communities in the U.S. South, the Caribbean, and Central America―Black people repurposed and regenerated what had been a place of enslavement into a site for imagining alternative futures. Jarvis C. McInnis charts a new account of Black modernity by centering Tuskegee'svision of agrarian worldmaking. He traces the diasporic ties and networks of exchange that linked Black communities in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although Washington is often regarded as an accommodationist, McInnis shows how artists, intellectuals, and political leaders―including George Washington Carver, Jean Price-Mars, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, and Marcus Garvey―adapted Tuskegee's methods into dynamic strategies for liberation in places like Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Jamaica. Even as the legacy of the plantation continued to circumscribe Black life, these thinkers found resources in its ruins to forge new theories and practices of progress, aesthetic innovation, and freedom that contributed to the New Negro Movement of the 1920s and 1930s. In contrast to traditional understandings of Black modernity as urban and premised on northward migration, McInnis foregrounds rural settings and practices of place making, rootedness, and liberatory agriculture. Shedding new light on the transnational influence of a historically Black institution in the U.S. South, Afterlives of the Plantation remaps Black cultural, intellectual, and political histories down to the very soil. Afterlives of the Plantation: Plotting Agrarian Futures in the Global Black South (Columbia University Press, 2025) is an award-winning monograph earning recognition as a winner of the 2026 S-USIH Annual Book Prize by the Society for U.S. Intellectual History, 2026 Pauli Murray Book Prize in Black Intellectual History by the African American Intellectual History Society, and the 2026 ASALH Book Prize by the Association for the Study of African American Life and History Kishauna Soljour is an Assistant Professor of Public Humanities at San Diego State University.

Our recap episodes, which offer a synthesis of our 1792-1804 coverage one year at a time, have reached 1803 - a year in which peace between France and Britain collapses, and the cause of Haitian independence is finally realised. Chris Sloan talks presenter Alex Stevenson through specific key clips he's picked out from our old episodes grouped around four themes which, we argue, help frame the period and shape our understanding of it in a whole new way. We hope this will provide a helpful refresh for longstanding listeners - whilst at the same time offering an 'entry ramp' to the podcast for those who want to get up to speed relatively easily before we crash full-speed into the intensity of the Napoleonic Wars.This episode covers a 12-month period in which, despite attack dogs and the death of Toussaint Louverture, the French are defeated on Saint-Domingue and Dessalines emerges as the leader to achieve independence for Haiti. This is the year which sees the Louisiana Purchase, an astonishing moment which turns the United States into a continental power overnight. And in Europe Britain declares war once again on France, setting up endless debates about whose fault the demise of the Peace of Amiens really was. Meanwhile the Swiss Confederation is created thanks to the signature of Napoleon Bonaparte - and in India an up and coming general called Arthur Wellesley achieves a striking victory at the Battle of Assaye which effectively ends the Second Anglo-Maratha War.Help us produce more episodes by supporting the Napoleonic Quarterly on Patreon: patreon.com/napoleonicquarterly

What can a nonprofit with just 650 active donors—and a median gift of only $100—teach us about raising millions through a capital campaign?In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Andrea Kihlstedt speaks with Sister Marilyn Lacey, founder and executive director of Mercy Beyond Borders, about how her small international nonprofit raised more than 75% of its $8.5 million campaign goal in less than 11 months.Mercy Beyond Borders works in some of the world's most challenging environments, including South Sudan, Haiti, Malawi, and refugee camps in Uganda and Kenya. Its mission is to help women and girls living in extreme poverty learn, connect, and lead. After 18 years of demonstrating that its model works, the organization launched an ambitious growth campaign to reach more girls and expand the long-term impact of its programs.The campaign began with an unexpected $1.5 million anonymous gift, followed by a remarkable $3 million pledge from a donor whose first contribution—made roughly 20 years earlier—was just $125. Sister Marilyn explains how that relationship developed gradually through conversations, storytelling, coffee, ball games, and genuine friendship. Her experience is a powerful reminder that today's modest donor may become tomorrow's transformational campaign supporter.But this episode is not simply a story about securing large gifts. It is a practical and inspiring conversation about donor relationships, capital campaign planning, feasibility studies, storytelling, and the mindset nonprofit leaders bring to fundraising.Sister Marilyn shares why she prefers to frame fundraising asks as invitations rather than requests for money. Instead of emphasizing organizational need or approaching supporters from a place of anxiety, she invites donors to participate in work that is hopeful, effective, and transformational. Her guiding advice is refreshingly simple: exude joy and confidence. As she puts it, no one wants to join a sinking ship.You'll also hear how Mercy Beyond Borders uses a monthly email newsletter to deepen donor engagement without constantly asking for gifts. Each edition centers the story of one woman or girl and shows supporters what their generosity is accomplishing. Combined with personalized thank-you letters and thoughtful individual touches, this consistent stewardship has helped the organization achieve an impressive 59% donor-retention rate.Sister Marilyn also discusses the value of bringing structure to an ambitious campaign. Although she was confident in her ability to connect with donors, Capital Campaign Pro's feasibility study process, campaign framework, templates, and weekly advising sessions helped Mercy Beyond Borders test its plans, engage prospective donors, and move forward with greater confidence.This episode offers valuable capital campaign guidance for small nonprofits, international organizations, founders, executive directors, development professionals, and anyone wondering whether their donor base is large or wealthy enough to support a major fundraising initiative. Mercy Beyond Borders proves that a relatively small organization can pursue a bold campaign goal when it has a compelling mission, loyal supporters, authentic leadership, strong donor stewardship, and the courage to invite people into something meaningful.To ensure your campaign ends in a celebration, download our free Capital Campaign Step-by-Step Guide & Checklist - https://capitalcampaignpro.com/checklist/ - This intuitive guide breaks down each step of your campaign, and the timeline allows you to visualize your whole campaign, from start to finish!

//The Wire//2300Z August 6, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL OUTAGE RESULTS IN MINNEAPOLIS CENTER DIVERTING MOST AIRCRAFT TO OTHER SECTORS. NEW CDC DIRECTOR CONFIRMED BY SENATE. IRAN REPORTEDLY STRIKES TWO TANKERS IN HORMUZ.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Iranian targeting of merchant vessels has continued, with two more vessels being struck this afternoon in the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian sources claim that they struck the M/T NISSOS KEA (heading outbound) and the M/T NISSOS KEROS (heading inbound) while the two vessels were being escorted by the United States through the southern Omani route.Analyst Comment: These two strikes have not yet been confirmed by the UKMTO, but reporting regarding strikes on ships is ironically hit-or-miss at this point. If these ships were being escorted at the time, these strikes would be quite important, but this detail is the most questionable at this time. What is certain is that both vessels shut off their transponders when they got close to the Strait, and the status of both vessels is not known.-HomeFront-Minnesota: This afternoon all flights at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport were grounded for several hours, due to a communications issue with Air Traffic Control. Most aircraft diverted to different air control sectors while Minneapolis Center was down, and many delays were reported nationwide due to the cascading affects of an outage in a busy air corridor. The exact cause of the outage has not yet been disclosed.Washington D.C. - The FAA is investigating air traffic control procedures at Ronald Reagan International Airport after an incident involving the President. Yesterday afternoon, MARINE ONE lifted off from the White House grounds to transport President Trump to Joint Base Andrews to depart for Los Angeles. Normally, when MARINE ONE flies this routine route, commercial aviation at Reagan is halted for a few minutes to provide a security standoff for Presidential aircraft. Tuesday night, this did not occur, and a civilian airliner passed within one mile of the President's helicopter.Analyst Comment: In terms of security incidents, this is comparatively minor and no safety concerns came about. There was no risk of collision, but due to the extreme levels of caution that is in place with any Presidential aircraft (and the zero-fail nature of the mission) ATC at Reagan making this mistake is concerning. Especially in the context of the long list of aviation mishaps that have plagued this specific airport for the past few years.Washington D.C. - Yesterday the Senate confirmed Dr. Erica Schwartz as director of the CDC. Before this position, Schwartz was a clinician for the Coast Guard, with her entire career being spent in the realm of creating and managing vaccine policy. Her latest position was to serve as the Preventative Medicine Chief in the Operational Medicine Readiness Division at headquarters in Washington, and was in charge of creating all vaccine policies for the USCG. Her priority areas for vaccine management and administration have been in Haiti, New Orleans (after Hurricane Katrina), and more recently with the Ebola outbreak in Africa.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The confirmation hearings to get the CDC Director position across the line were initially a bit uncertain, as Schwartz's main interest is in the world of vaccines. As HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy has been extremely outspoken on the topic of vaccine policy management, most of her confirmation hearings involved Senators questioning if she would continue the ways of the "old guard" at the CDC, or if she would follow the newer policy initiatives of her boss (Secretary Kennedy), who most of the traditional bureaucracy opposes. After a few brief rounds of questioning, the Senate was satisfied with her answers and she was confirmed with the vote splitting mostly along party lines.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground NomadNet: 5fa68c88be727a0e1a250a75e5e79269 Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

Not every ocean conservation win comes from a nonprofit or a government program. In this episode, Andrew breaks down three for-profit companies that are cleaning up the ocean, funding wildlife research, and paying living wages to the people doing the work. These businesses show that conservation and profit are not opposing goals. They can be the same goal. Andrew covers 4Ocean, whose full-time captains and cleanup crews earn living wages with health insurance and bonuses across Florida, Bali, Haiti, and Guatemala. He covers Ocean Sole, the Kenyan social enterprise that pays local collectors for discarded flip-flops and employs artisans to turn that waste into sculptures sold around the world. And he covers the wildlife tracking bracelet company that lets a purchase fund a satellite tag on a real shark, manatee, or seabird, connecting buyers directly to the research their money supports. This episode is for entrepreneurs, scientists, and conservationists who want their work to have impact without depending entirely on grants or donor cycles. Andrew argues these three companies point to a business model that more of the ocean conservation space should be paying attention to: people, planet, and profit working together instead of one getting sacrificed for the others. Takeaways 4Ocean employs over 200 full-time captains and crew at living wages across Florida, Bali, Haiti, and Guatemala, plus 350+ bracelet artisans in Bali and Guatemala Ocean Sole pays Kenyan collectors for discarded flip-flops and employs local artisans to carve them into sculptures sold worldwide Wildlife tracking bracelets connect a single purchase to funding for a real satellite tag on an animal like a shark, manatee, or penguin All three companies operate as B Corps or B Corp-style social enterprises, combining environmental impact with fair local employment For-profit conservation businesses can offer more consistent funding than grant-dependent nonprofits, since revenue comes from ongoing product sales rather than competitive fundraising cycles Andrew argues the "triple bottom line" of people, planet, and profit should be the standard other conservation-minded entrepreneurs build toward Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

What if the Bible isn't a rulebook, but a love story? Bestselling author, Bible teacher, and self-described "hot mess" Lisa Harper joins host David Sams on this episode of Contagious Influencers of America — and she comes bearing her battered, sticky-note-covered "ADD Bible," full of margin notes from her late father. From there, the conversation opens into some of the most tender and unguarded stories Lisa has shared on the podcast: growing up after her parents' divorce, watching her father's faith transform later in life, the winding seven-year road to adopting her daughter Missy from Haiti, and the season of "breakdown" that taught her — finally — to trust God in the dark. Lisa also talks about her devotional, Jesus: A Scandalously Devoted, Conspicuously Uncool, Super-Transparent Homage to Who Our Savior Is and How Much He Loves Us — a follow-up to her bestseller Life — and explains why, after decades of walking with Jesus, she still wants to fall in love with Him all over again. Expect Lisa's trademark mix of belly laughs and theological depth as she gets honest about counseling, singleness at 60+, and what she calls the "tactile kindness" of God. Since this interview, Lisa has continued writing and teaching — she completed her doctorate at Houston Theological Seminary earlier this year, released several more books, including her latest Song of Songs Bible Study Guide. She continues to host her popular Back Porch Theology podcast. This episode first aired December 2023.

In this special 9-week series, listeners will hear from three different groups—GenX paired with Millennials, Gen Z, and Boomers with a mix of the Silent Generation. Their conversations cover a variety of topics including technology, unity in the Church, racism, and parenting. Grouped by similar ages, these 12 individuals share their unique views, opinions, and convictions based on their generational upbringing and views of the world. Ranging from ages 16 to 81, we're covering 5 different generations with 16 different guests.In this episode, our Generation Z group share their views on parenting, spanking, the necessity of a college education, what motivates them to determine a career, and whether our society has an unhealthy disposition toward safety. Our guests also have a little fun with music—can they identify the artists of popular songs from the other generations? Bios of our Gen-Z contributors: Brandon AllonBrandon Allon has been a photographer for seven years, four of which have been with Seacoast. A third-generation photographer, he has also traveled to five countries outside the United States. Before photography, Brandon spent ten years in music — an experience that took him all the way to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Outside of his creative pursuits, he enjoys running and table tennis.Jordan Mae BazzleJordan Mae Bazzle is a sophomore in high school with a passion for fencing, playing the violin, building things, and Formula 1. She is currently working on building her own violin alongside her grandfather and plans to spend plenty of time at the beach this summer. Looking ahead, Jordan Mae hopes to study mechanical engineering in college and one day work with Formula 1 cars.Hayes HerlongHayes Herlong is a 24-year-old from Charleston with a love for Jesus, surfing, adventure, and her one-eyed cat. She is currently pursuing ministry through the Residency Program at Seacoast Church, where she serves in youth ministry and is passionate about helping middle and high school students know Jesus and grow in their faith — a community she has called home for many years.Hayes also has a deep heart for global missions, having served internationally in Haiti, Togo, and Zambia, as well as stateside in Orlando and New York City. She loves learning about new cultures, meeting new people, and stepping into experiences that stretch her faith. That adventurous spirit once led her to jump and swing off the 420-foot bridge at Victoria Falls. Whether serving students, traveling the world, or trying something completely new, Hayes hopes her love for the Lord, people, and adventure will continue leading her to places where she can share the Gospel — and maybe keep her mom just a little nervous along the way.Manuel LagunaManuel Laguna is a 24-year-old Audio, Video, and Lighting Systems Coordinator at Seacoast Church. He has been part of the Seacoast family for ten years and on staff for three. In his free time, Manuel enjoys playing music, cooking new recipes, and playing video games with his Seacoast family. He is deeply passionate about worship and faith-based music, loves tattoos and plans to get more (sorry, Abuela), and is a proud MexiRican — both Mexican and Puerto Rican. He credits his two parents as the best in the world (no arguments entertained) and has two sisters: one two-legged and one four-legged — a labradoodle he considers the best ever. An adventurer at heart, Manuel has been blessed to travel to many countries and is eager to keep exploring.Seacoast Podcast is now on InstagramBe a Patron of the podcast We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024. We'd love to hear from you.  E-mail Joey HERE. Producer/Editor/host: Joey SvendsenSound Engineer/Editor: Katelyn Vandiver
