Welcome to episode 274 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast. I am Chris Kirkbride. In this episode, the UK has issued a sanctions alignment following amendments by the UN, and the US has issued sanctions against Cuban officials and a Turkish-led Hizballah cash-smuggling network. Finally, the International Criminal Court has responded to the US sanctions imposed on two of its members. On enforcement news, the UK Gambling Commission has settled anti-money laundering and terrorist financing compliance failures against a gambling company, and the US has indicted a senior executive for alleged insider trading. Finally, the FCA has brought enforcement action against two individuals, APRA has published its 2026–27 Corporate Plan, and collaborative guidance has been proposed by the UKFIU to streamline reporting and reduce duplicative SARs filings for fraud victims.A transcript of this podcast, with links to the stories, will be available at www.crimes.financial. The photograph on the podcast cover art is by Sora Shimazaki at Pexels, and the stinger sample between each news section is ‘Ben Logo 1' by BenKirb from Pixabay.

Trump has also limited military drills with South Korea, which are in Japan’s national interest. So how will Takaichi respond? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jon Herold and Burning Bright open with a mystery eye injury bit before pivoting to celebrate, ironically, the country officially crossing forty trillion dollars in debt. From there it's a full rundown of the week's declassifications, including an Eric Swalwell related document that's more interesting for how it got declassified than what's actually in it, plus new filings in the James Comey case that Herold still isn't convinced amounts to anything real. There's a segment on the former NIAID official who quietly pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges without much media attention, a discussion on US sanctions against the International Criminal Court president, and a longer debate about whether Comey could plausibly be guilty of something bigger than what's currently charged. The guys also touch on Venezuela, voting machine history, and revisit the ever popular Epstein files question. Dense news week, delivered with the usual banter.

The technology giant Meta has gone on trial in California over allegations its platforms, Facebook and Instagram, are deliberately designed to keep young people hooked.

Today marked the end of the Democrat-Lawfare Complex as Jack Smith moved to dismiss his prosecutions against Donald Trump. // The International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, but Netanyahu remains defiant. Are we on the brink of a ceasefire in Lebanon? // The Department of Justice is using antitrust law in an attempt to break up Google.

We're in a really strange moment in the foreign policy politics of the Democratic Party. People are looking for an alternative vision — an approach to American power in the world that would feel more moral and just, after the failures of President Biden, and the wrecking ball President Trump has taken to international rules and norms. The answer many on the left are coming to is powerfully simple: international law. America could just start following the rules that we helped write. Is that possible? Is that enough? What would that even look like? To talk through these questions, I invited Linda Kinstler on the show. She's a member of the Society of Fellows at Harvard, a contributing writer at The New York Times Magazine, and the author of “Come to This Court and Cry: How the Holocaust Ends.” She's done some incredible writing and reporting on whether what we're watching is the death of international law. In this conversation, we talk about the Biden administration's failures to live up to the principles it set for itself, the Trump administration's campaign to destroy the International Criminal Court and what it would take to reinvigorate international law.

The International Criminal Court is an independent judicial body that hears cases on individuals charged with crimes against humanity, starvation, war crimes and genocide. The Genocide Convention, which the U.S. has ratified, defines genocide as “acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group.” In November 2024, after court deliberations on Gaza, the ICC issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant as well as for a Hamas commander who was later confirmed dead. Israel denounced the ICC ruling as “absurd” and “anti-Semitic.” The U.S. response? It not only ignored the ruling but also leveled sanctions against ICC judges and lawyers. For International law to have any credibility, it must be applied equally without fear or favor. Recorded at the University of Brighton.

“Each one of these is individually a crime scene, and the United States is the responsible actor.” — John Walsh With America preoccupied (as always) with war in the Middle East, another kind of killing is taking place at its back door. Since early September of last year, the United States military has bombed 67 small boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific and assassinated 221 supposed “narco-terrorists.” The first full account of this deadly war is the Washington Office on Latin America's (WOLA) Killing Spree: Extrajudicial Executions in the U.S. Boat Strike Campaign, a 27,000-word report by Adam Isacson, WOLA's director for defense oversight, and John Walsh, its director for drug policy. Under U.S. and international law, this is murder, Isacson and Walsh conclude about a policy they see as premeditated killing of civilians who pose no immediate threat to the United States. Its official name is Operation Southern Spear, designed as a war on terror by an inner circle of Stephen Miller, Pete Hegseth, and Marco Rubio. So the Donroe Doctrine is really a broader MAGA embrace of extra-judicial killings. Trump might be able to point to Latin America on a map, but this official US policy is about far more than geography. And it even fails as drug policy. The boat strikes target Andean cocaine while fentanyl (produced in Mexico from Chinese synthetics) drives the American epidemic. As Isacson puts it, bombing these boats is like murdering a street-corner dealer and declaring the entire drug problem solved. The WOLA report's darkest implication is domestic. The Justice Department memo underpinning the campaign amounts, Walsh argues, to an open license to kill. For an administration that talks obsessively about the enemy within, the boat strikes might be a dress rehearsal. Graham Greene's quiet Americans have metastasized into the deadly Americans. Only this time they're filming their own atrocities and boasting about them on social media. The assassination of that street-corner dealer in Peru might be a dress rehearsal for an anti-ICE activist in Minnesota. America's southern back porch threatens to become its northern front door. Five Takeaways •       63 Crime Scenes. The numbers, from WOLA's strike-by-strike tracker: 63 attacks on 67 boats since September 2, 2025; 221 people killed; three known survivors. The legal analysis is not complicated: Title 18, Section 1111 of the U.S. Code prohibits murder, applies on the high seas, and premeditated killing of civilians with no self-defense justification is precisely what it forbids — no due process, no evidence offered, and in many cases no idea who was aboard. Each announcement is a near-identical Southern Command tweet, which is exactly what makes the campaign insidious: with no news handle, coverage shrinks to 150 words in the AP, and a democracy grows numb to what Walsh insists on calling 63 individual crime scenes with the United States as the responsible actor.•       Narcoterrorism: Two Wars Welded Together. Operation Southern Spear fuses the post-9/11 war on terror with the sixty-year war on drugs: organized-crime groups redefined as the equivalent of al-Qaeda and ISIS, a secret list of two dozen designated organizations, and Stephen Miller declaring that only the military can fight drug trafficking. The policy's continuity is real — supply control has been an American staple since Reagan — but its rupture is stark: Marco Rubio's own justification admitted that decades of interdiction never worked, so the administration would skip the intermediary steps and simply kill. The December 2025 National Security Strategy makes Latin America a first-tier priority for the first time in decades — the Donroe Doctrine, which Andrew reads as a broader MAGA embrace of extra-judicial killings — with Venezuela as proof of concept and “joint operations” as the export: Mexico refused, Ecuador agreed, and newly elected far-right governments in Colombia and Peru may soon invite American special forces to kick in doors.•       The Wrong War on the Wrong Economy. Both authors concede the underlying problem is real: organized crime kills, displaces, extorts everyone from street peddlers to five-star restaurants, and buys governments wholesale. But the strikes fail on their own terms. They target Andean cocaine while fentanyl — compact, potent, made in Mexico from Chinese precursors — drives American overdose deaths. Drugs are one income stream among many: at $4,000-an-ounce gold, illegal mining that poisons the Amazon may pay better, alongside extortion, kidnapping, and migrant smuggling. And the military is the wrong tool: America's supermax already holds the drug lords, the Medellín and Cali cartels were obliterated decades ago, and there is more coca than ever — because organized crime, unlike an insurgency, doesn't want to fight the state. It wants to corrupt it. Killing suspects also destroys the evidence a real case would need — ludicrous, as Walsh puts it, as drug policy.•       Who Were the 221? Nobody knows how many were innocent — which is itself the scandal. From the few dozen cases WOLA could document, the dead include fishermen, migrants, human-trafficking victims, and kids paid a couple hundred dollars to run drugs or fuel one time — the lowest links in the chain, in coastal regions where boats are the only roads and the same vessel carries passengers one day and a small cargo the next. (Isacson has ridden boats exactly like the ones in the videos.) One victim was a genuinely dirty local drug boss; most were nothing of the kind. The reckoning has begun at the edges: two Trinidadian families are suing the United States in Boston federal court, a Colombian fisherman's family has gone to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, and an Ecuadorian prosecutor who investigated the strikes has been assassinated.•       Colombia or Chicago. The report's most chilling section reads the Justice Department's legal memo as an open license to kill: a secret list, membership decided by the president, no limiting factor — so that, as Walsh warns, “it doesn't matter if you're in Colombia or Chicago.” For an administration that speaks constantly of the enemy from within — and drummed the theme into the assembled brass at Quantico — the high seas look like a rehearsal space. Accountability remains possible: Tim Kaine is reading every after-action report, boat-flag states could take Trump officials to the International Criminal Court, and travel could get complicated for the inner circle. WOLA's fear isn't retribution but lawfare — never, as Isacson says, a reason to be silent. Graham Greene's quiet Americans have metastasized into the deadly Americans, filming their own atrocities and boasting on social media. The assassination of a street-corner dealer in Peru might be a dress rehearsal for an anti-ICE activist in Minnesota: America's southern back porch threatens to become its northern front door.

Trigger warning: This episode references child marriage, maternal death, and suicide.August 15th marks the fifth anniversary of the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan. Gender-based discrimination is a tenet of the Taliban's policies, which is being enforced and institutionalized across the country. We hear from Metra Mehran, a self-described person exiled from Afghanistan during the Taliban takeover in 2021, and who now focuses on advocacy work related to gender apartheid with Amnesty International, about how this gender apartheid has unraveled. In Afghanistan, there is a systematic level of discrimination that impacts every single facet of life for women and girls. Women cannot work, go to school beyond primary school, or have freedom of movement. The enforcement and institutionalization of this gender discrimination funnels into the crime of the grand-scale gender apartheid being perpetrated in Afghanistan. Child marriage has peaked in the past five years, interrupting a girl's inability to finish their education. Women and girls face higher rates of domestic violence, reproductive violence, and suicide. And while underground schooling does exist, girls seek education at extreme risk to themselves and their families.Advocates are pushing to use the International Criminal Court to use the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Violence (CEDAW) and take Afghanistan to international Criminal Court. Conversations to include gender apartheid in treaty negotiations are also a testament to the strength and power of the women of Afghanistan.Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.socialBuy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Former Republican presidential candidate says he is a political prisoner as legal battle enters new phase. By Renaldo McKenzie | The Neoliberal. In this episode of The Neoliberal Round Podcast, Renaldo McKenzie examines the continuing incarceration and legal battle of John Anthony Castro, former GOP presidential candidate and president of AI Tax. Castro gained national attention after challenging Donald Trump's eligibility for office under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment. He later faced federal tax-related charges and now maintains that his prosecution and incarceration were politically motivated. In his latest conversation with Renaldo McKenzie, Castro discusses his continuing fight for freedom, his appeals through the federal courts, his plans involving the U.S. Supreme Court, and petitions submitted to international bodies, including the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention and the International Criminal Court.Castro also discusses allegations of prosecutorial misconduct, undisclosed agreements involving government witnesses, his filing of multiple Freedom of Information Act requests, and his belief that efforts continue to shape public opinion against him. Throughout the conversation, he reflects on faith, perseverance, imprisonment, justice, and his belief that his name will ultimately be cleared.Renaldo concludes the conversation with a prayer for Castro, his family, and for justice to prevail.The full article accompanying this episode is available in The Neoliberal Post and The Neoliberal Journals.Read more at RenaldoCMcKenzie.com and TheNeoliberal.com.For inquiries, comments, interviews, or information, email info@theneoliberal.com.The Neoliberal Round PodcastHosted by Renaldo McKenzieNews.

July 31, 2026Trump is reportedly “exasperated” that the Iran War, for which there was no real strategy, is dragging on and his advisors can't agree on what to do, Trump told reporters he plans on heavy military strikes against Iran, Instead of a strategy, Trump and Secretary of Defense Hegseth had an ideology, That ideology celebrates individualism, and sees education, expertise, cooperation, and coalition building as  weaknesses not strengths, Trump and his aides are attacking the International Criminal Court as Trump and administration officials appear to be worried about future prosecution for human rights violations, Strikes against small boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific have killed more than 220 people and appear to have done little to stop the flow of illegal drugs, The leadership of US combat commands support the restoration of Pentagon personnel whose job it is to protect civilians but Hegseth has not committed to that restoration, At an AIDS conference in Brazil, an official of the US State Department showed a map of Africa on which there were fake countries with the names of random real countries.Watch today's recording here: https://www.youtube.com/live/g9TUa1Rwd6U?si=T8_KKcHQZElhpnZ-Get full, free access to Letters from an American here: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribeYou can also find me:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/hcrichardson.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathercoxrichardson/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/heathercoxrichardson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@heathercoxrichardson Get full access to Letters from an American at heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribe

Trump opens up Camp David for a cabinet meeting, a first in modern presidential history, and RFK Jr. gets a genuinely moving moment reminiscing about his uncle's visits there six decades ago. From there it's a full lap around the administration's wins: record stock market highs, Trump savings accounts topping 7 million sign ups, prescription drug prices dropping through the favored nation policy, and a fraud task force update with some seriously big dollar figures. JD Vance breaks down the International Criminal Court pushback, Marco Rubio covers Middle East diplomacy and hurricane relief in Venezuela, Pete Hegseth talks military rebuilding, and Scott Bessent runs through the economic numbers. The Q&A afterward wanders into Iran's dwindling military, Ukraine's Patriot missile request, a Minnesota cyber attack blame game, and a lingering controversy over a canceled compensation fund. It's a packed, wide ranging cabinet session with plenty of personality.

Jon Herold breaks down Fauci's much anticipated congressional testimony, where he pled the Fifth Amendment repeatedly, including on questions as basic as what day of the week it was, and shares the viral moment where Senator Bernie Moreno dropped an F bomb demanding an apology. He walks through Kathryn Herridge's reporting on the legal strategies that could still challenge Fauci's Biden era pardon, plus a batch of Trump Truth Social posts reflecting on his COVID response and defending Operation Warp Speed. Other stories include the abrupt and unexplained exit of Bill Pulte, Chad's withdrawal from the International Criminal Court, a Senate probe into Trump Media's paid early access service for Truth Social posts, and a formal federal ban on gain of function research. Sponsor reads, market updates, and a preview of tonight's Power Hour with Burning Bright round out a dense Wednesday show.

Can a U.S. mayor enforce an International Criminal Court warrant? Has President Trump found a new legal path to tariffs after earlier setbacks? And can the government really seize a $95,000 airplane over a six-pack of beer? Richard Epstein, John Yoo, and Charles C. W. Cooke unpack these legal controversies before closing with a spirited debate over which Supreme Court justices deserve a place on the judicial Mount Rushmore.

Really? Bullets seem remarkably uncomplicated. I got asked recently why dealing with Iran isn't as easy as dealing with Venezuela. Because they're not the same country. That's like asking why climbing Mount Everest isn't as easy as walking up the steps at Walmart. Venezuela is in our hemisphere. We've had strategic interests there since James Monroe was telling Europe, "Stay on your side of the pond." Iran has spent decades preparing for exactly this moment. Their nuclear infrastructure wasn't built in office parks with valet parking. They buried it inside mountains. Granite. Reinforced bunkers. Underground complexes that look like somebody hired a Bond villain as the architect. These people weren't planning for inspections. They were planning for survival. Which makes President Trump's strategy fascinating. Everybody expected fireworks. Instead, he's conducting surgery. One target. Another target. Economic pressure. Military pressure. Psychological pressure. It's less "shock and awe" and more "you'll wake up tomorrow and discover another piece of your government has mysteriously disappeared." Melissa made an interesting point the other day about international law and whether Trump worries about being labeled a war criminal. That's adorable. The same people who spent years calling Trump Hitler now expect him to lose sleep because somebody at the International Criminal Court might wag a finger? Then, almost on cue, Iran demanded Trump and Netanyahu be declared war criminals. You have to admire the timing. It's like getting robbed and having the burglar call the police because your alarm scared him. Meanwhile, Trump escalated anyway. Oil infrastructure. Bridges. Military headquarters. The message wasn't subtle. It was, "We can make your economy disappear one strategic target at a time." And apparently Iran responded by pretending not to hear it. That's generally not a winning strategy. Now things get even more interesting. Most Americans don't even realize Iran has two navies. There's the regular navy. Then there's the Revolutionary Guard Navy. Think of them as the mosquito version of naval warfare. Tiny boats. Fast boats. Hidden in caves. Launching from tunnels. Harassing commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. They're betting that enough little stings become one big headache. Twenty years ago, maybe. Today? Every satellite is watching. Every drone is watching. Artificial intelligence is watching. Some poor analyst in a windowless room probably knows what cave they're using before the captain does. Technology has made hiding much harder. You can hide from your neighbors. You can't hide from an American reconnaissance system that can probably tell what you had for breakfast. Meanwhile, Iran's proxy network is beginning to crack. The Houthis are under pressure. Regional allies are making moves. Kevin Jackson has been called, the "white-collar" Joe Rogan. Given their similar backgrounds in TV, comedy, and martial arts, it's easy to see why people enjoy Kevin's show so much. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Democratic Party and DSA Discussion Cruz "the Democratic Party is increasingly influenced by the DSA and other far-left activists" He characterizes the DSA as Marxist and contends that its ideology is becoming more prominent within Democratic politics. The hosts discuss voting patterns, education levels, and income demographics, asserting that highly educated, lower-income voters are among the strongest Democratic constituencies. They argue that universities contribute to political radicalization and ideological indoctrination. Education and Reading Instruction Cruz discusses legislation he introduced to encourage schools receiving federal literacy funds to adopt teaching methods supported by evidence. The bill promotes the "science of reading" and phonics-based instruction rather than approaches such as “three-cueing.” The conversation cites literacy concerns and references improvements in reading scores in states such as Mississippi after adopting phonics-focused methods. The bill is described as bipartisan, with Democratic Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii as a co-sponsor. New York City and Israel-Related Issues The hosts discuss a stabbing incident in New York involving victims who were reported to be Jewish and Asian. They criticize New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, alleging that his comments regarding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demonstrate hostility toward Israel. Cruz argues that local officials do not have authority to enforce actions based on International Criminal Court warrants. New Jersey Voting Controversy New Jersey entered thousands of non-citizens into the state voter rolls State findings show that some improperly registered individuals cast ballots. This supports stricter voter registration and identification requirements. Democrats oppose these election-integrity measures. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

We opened the phone lines and let regular listeners say what they really want done with Iran — no filters, no focus groups, just straight talk from people who are sick of the endless cycles of threats, deals, and excuses. These callers aren't sitting in think tanks or cable news green rooms. They're the folks who actually live with the consequences of weak foreign policy, higher gas prices, and the constant risk that a regime that chants “Death to America” keeps getting more time and more leverage. The conversation went exactly where you'd expect when you stop listening to the same recycled experts and start listening to the audience: clear-eyed assessments of the threat, frustration with decades of mixed signals, and a lot of commonsense ideas about strength, deterrence, and not repeating the same mistakes. If you've been wondering what real Americans outside the Beltway are thinking about Iran right now, this is the unfiltered version.

P.M. Edition for July 24. Today an FDA committee voted to increase access to six of seven peptides. Those are substances that haven't undergone regulatory approval, but they're promoted on social media and promise physical transformations like better skin. We hear from WSJ health and wellness reporter Alex Janin about what the vote means and whether it paves the way for a peptide gold rush. Plus, new tariffs went into effect today intended to combat forced labor, and President Trump also threatened new tariffs on the European Union.

Member states of the International Criminal Court have overwhelmingly voted to remove its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, over allegations of sexual misconduct. The British lawyer denies accusations of engaging in an improper sexual relationship with a junior staff member. Also, firefighters struggle to contain Madrid wildfires as more than 130,000 evacuated in France and Spain. And a month after the twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela, a leading member of the opposition tells us why he thinks the destruction was so bad and the response so slow.

It's Friday, July 24th, 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 Adam McManus British pro-lifer brutally murdered There's a brutal update about the murder of a retired British pro-life politician. Shockingly, the man accused of murdering former British politician Ann Widdecombe on July 8th struck her 21 times in the head with a hammer before taking her wallet and leaving her home, reports Human Events. After she failed to appear for a scheduled television interview that afternoon, her body was discovered the following day by her gardener. Joshua Kerry, age 28, appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on July 21st after being charged with murder in the death of the 78-year-old former Conservative Member of Parliament. Prosecutors said police are also investigating whether the killing had a political or terrorist motive. According to the Associated Press, Widdecombe was eating lunch at her home on the edge of Dartmoor National Park in southwest England, when Kerry arrived. Widdecombe served as a Conservative member of Parliament from 1987 until 2010. Listen to her articulate defense of the unborn baby in a 2020 debate hosted by the Queen's University Belfast Literary and Scientific Society. WIDDECOMBE: “When a child is born, you cannot take its life. Not one minute after birth can you take its life. It does not matter how disabled that child is, how profoundly sick it may be, how stressed the mother is, how poor the mother is, whether the mother has suddenly decided that she didn't, after all, want to have the child. You cannot take that child's life. At the moment of birth, it has full civil rights. It is protected as much as you and I are protected by the law. “Yet, one day earlier, that is not so. But hang on. It's the same child! Nothing has happened to change that child into something different, other than the fact that finally it can be seen, that it is quite visibly here among us. But it's been here among us in the days and the weeks and, indeed, the months before that birth. “So, I would say that the law, which has now been imposed, I can't put it any other way, on Northern Ireland is a law that actually is illogical. It is immoral and it is unkind. If a child can enjoy our protection one day, that same child should be able to enjoy our protection the day before!” Proverbs 31:8 says, “"Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” The brutal death of pro-lifer Ann Widdecombe is a profound loss. Samaritan's Purse aids thousands after Venezuela earthquakes Evangelist Franklin Graham visited Venezuela this week to meet with earthquake survivors who were being aided by Samaritan's Purse after the June 24 back-to-back magnitude 7.5 and 7.2 earthquakes killed at least 5,000 people and injured even more, reports The Christian Post. Samaritan's Purse Emergency Field Hospital, which has 60 beds and two operating rooms, has helped 2,500 people since it opened on June 30th. Graham said, "These people are surrounded by so much death and destruction. We want to bring the light of Jesus Christ into these places of pain.” Thomas Ovington, the Team Leader in Venezuela, gave his overview of the earthquake trauma and the help that Samaritan's Purse is offering. OVINGTON: “We're seeing complete chaos around. There's fallen buildings. There's people sleeping in the streets. Football stadiums packed full of people. It's also the huge number of people that are missing. There's just an incredibly high level of desperation. “But it's also an amazing opportunity for us to serve. We have a lot of different capabilities. This is the emergency room that we're in right now. Two operating theaters in the back where we can do the surgeries. A lot of the needs we're starting to see are trauma from fallen buildings. There's crush injuries, broken bones. “Additionally to that, we're doing distributions of tarps, non-food items, and potable water. “At Samaritan's Purse, our number one priority is to share the Gospel of Jesus and the hope we have in Him. And so here, we're in the midst of an incredibly hopeless situation for tens of thousands of people. It's really an incredible opportunity for us to live out our mission, relieving suffering and doing it all in Jesus' name.” You can make a donation to help the efforts of Samaritan's Purse on the ground in Venezuela through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Trump blasts Democrat Communists as greatest threat to America Ahead of the November midterm elections, President Donald Trump launched a broadside against the Democratic Party, saying the up-and-coming Democratic Socialists are "communism by another name" and "the greatest threat I've ever seen to our country.,” reports Real Clear Politics. TRUMP:  “While our administration is lifting up the next generation with the power of freedom and American capitalism, proven all over the world when it's done right, the radical Left is actively trying to destroy our children's future with the disaster known as communism. This isn't social democracy; these are communists by another name, right? “Communism is the single greatest threat to our country in its history, including even World War I and World War II, Pearl Harbor, 9/11. These people are stone cold crazy. “You know they want to give everything away. You want free rent? You want [a] free house? What they don't say is that a year from now, there'll be absolute squalor, turmoil, and death. And that's why we declare again today that the United States of America will never be a communist country!” NYC Mayor threatens to arrest Israeli Prime Minister as a “war criminal” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a socialist, has been threatening to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he addresses the United Nations this September in New York City.  This was in response to the International Criminal Court's November 2024 issuance of a warrant for Netanyahu's arrest for what it alleges are war crimes and crimes against humanity. MAMDAMI: “Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal, the architect of a horrific genocide against the Palestinian people. As I've said, I agree with the [International Criminal Court] that Benjamin Netanyahu should be arrested and tried for his crimes. “My administration has reviewed every avenue available under applicable law to determine whether New York City could execute the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant if Benjamin Netanyahu came here. It is clear that we do not have the independent legal authority to enforce this warrant. The federal government, however, does, and I call on them to join the ICC and execute this warrant.” Appearing on American Family Radio, Mike Huckabee, the U.S. Ambassador to Israel, had some choice words for the New York City mayor. HUCKABEE: “He certainly doesn't have the legal right to arrest a diplomat because he has diplomatic immunity if he comes to the U.N. So, this is nonsense on the part of Mamdami. He ought to be focusing on fixing potholes, picking up the trash, keeping the parks clean, and the needles from drug users off the streets. But instead, he's injecting himself into something about which he is utterly ignorant. “When he says Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal, on what does he base that? Benjamin Netanyahu is the elected leader of a country that very much mirrors the United States in terms of complete, wall-to-wall freedom. And if he's talking about Gaza and says, ‘Oh, they're guilty of genocide. Israel didn't start the war in Gaza; Hamas did by murdering 1,200 innocent civilians and taking captive 250 people, including 16 Americans.” Ambassador Huckabee explained what a similar attack on America would look like when scaled to the size of our population. HUCKABEE: “If Americans had the similar kind of assault on us in one day, if you looked at the scale of population, it would be the equivalent of 40,000 Americans being murdered in a single day, and 10,000 people being taken hostage, raped, starved, beaten, and abused. And I wonder what would Americans demand? What would Americans do if we had 40,000 people slaughtered, including pregnant women butchered in front of their children? If we'd had that in one day, I wonder if America's response would be to just gently write, maybe a strongly worded letter and say, ‘Please give our 10,000 hostages back.' “The Israelis prosecuted the war against Hamas for the sole purpose of getting their hostages back, but Hamas wouldn't let them go. This war should never have taken that long.” Homosexual Fox News host buys surrogate child On July 15, Fox News political analyst Guy Benson, a self-proclaimed homosexual,  announced on Instagram that he and his homosexual partner, Adam Wise, became so-called “fathers” again with a picture of himself holding a little girl named Madison Halsey, reports LifeSiteNews.com. This is the second child the two men have procured through surrogacy. Their son, Conrad James, was also birthed by an anonymous surrogate mother in November 2023. The culture war over surrogacy – the practice of renting the body of a woman to gestate a child created outside the womb through in vitro fertilization – has been growing louder over the past several years. The New York Post noted that Benson's announcement “drew an outpouring of well-wishes from prominent conservatives, including former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, Fox News host Dana Perino, and political commentator Sarah Cupp.” On the other hand, Christian commentators such as Megan Basham emphasized the injustice. She wrote, “Benson is an incisive pundit. But there is nothing conservative about deliberately creating motherless children. I pray Benson, and those like him on the Right, would consider what they are telling the world about how unnecessary they believe mothers (or if we're talking about two women, fathers) are to the needs of children.” And Katy Faust, a children's rights activist and founder of Them Before Us, wrote, “What did you think was going to happen after we legalized gay marriage? … What Obergefell enabled was something else. It accelerated the legal replacement of biological parenthood with intent-based parenthood.” Romans 1:26-27 says, “God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. In the same way, the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.” 24 Worldview listeners gave $10,569.75 And finally, by Thursday night at 10:00pm Central, 24 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year. Our thanks to Elizabeth in Lubbock, Texas who gave $50, Craig in Rochester, New Hampshire who gave $86.75 as well as Robert in San Antonio, Texas and Jane in Shrewsbury, Pennsylvania – both of whom gave $100. We are grateful to God for Elaine in Hampton, South Carolina who gave $120, Jennifer in San Jose, California, Alexander in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, and Jason in Lakeland, Florida – each of whom pledged $10/month for 12 months for a gift of $120. We were touched by the generosity of Daniel in Santa Cruz, California who pledged $22/month for 12 months for a gift of $264, Sarah in Madera, California who gave $300, and George in Leesburg, Virginia who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. We appreciated the sacrifice of Fred in Cascade, Montana, Michelle in Sparta, Michigan, Todd in Davenport, Iowa, Mary in Highland, New York, Caroline in Live Oak, Florida, and Clarence in Stone Ridge, New York – each of whom gave $347 as well as Michele in Kindersley, Saskatchewan, Canada who pledged $28.92/month for 12 months for a gift of $347. And we were blown away by David in Tall Timbers, Maryland who pledged $30/month for 12 months for a gift of $360, Rosilin in Waynesville, Missouri who gave $500, Tammy in Cascade, Idaho who gave $1,200, Elizabeth in Carol Stream, Illinois who gave $1,200, Emmanuel in Madison, Alabama who gave $1,200, and Calvin in Waldorf, Maryland who gave $2,000. Those 24 gifts add up to $10,569.75. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $56,062.75 (sound effect of people cheering) Wow! That is the single best day so far in the month of July.  More and more Worldview listeners are catching the vision, thanks in part to the McVeda Family in Great Falls, Montana. Can you feel the momentum? We need to raise $25,163.25 by midnight on Friday, July 24 But we still have a steep hill to climb. So, if you have not stepped up to the plate yet, we could really use your help.  By tonight at 12 midnight, we need to raise a whopping $25,163.25 to hit our $81,226 goal! But listen to this.  I got a call yesterday morning from a Worldview friend in Naples, Florida right before I swam my 72 laps at the outdoor pool at my gym.  He said, “Adam, I will match, dollar for dollar, the next 12 people who give a one-time gift of $500.”  He is willing to invest $6,000 to encourage 12 people to collectively give another $6,000! If those gifts come in today, then we have to raise the difference of about $13,000. Would you consider being one of 6 people to pledge $100/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200, one of 5 people to pledge $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, or one of 10 people to pledge $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300? Just go to TheWorldview.com, click on Give, select the dollar amount, and make sure to click on the “recurring” button if that's your wish.  And remember, if you want to continue your monthly pledge to The Worldview that you started in a previous year, please let me know so we can count your generous ongoing gift toward our total.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani repeatedly promised that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could be arrested if he entered New York City—but after President Donald Trump declared that Netanyahu would not be arrested in the United States, Mamdani was forced to acknowledge a major legal reality: New York City does not have the independent authority to enforce the International Criminal Court's warrant.Mamdani continues to call Netanyahu a “war criminal” and is now demanding that the federal government join the ICC and execute the warrant. But the United States is not a member of the ICC, the Trump administration rejects the court's authority over Netanyahu, and the mayor of New York cannot independently dictate American foreign policy or enforce an international warrant.In this video, Professor Nez breaks down:• What Mamdani originally promised• Trump's unequivocal response• Mamdani's stunning admission about his authority• Why the ICC warrant cannot simply be enforced by the NYPD• The constitutional divide between local and federal power• What could happen when Netanyahu visits New York for the United Nations General AssemblyWas this a principled stand from Mamdani—or political theater built around a promise he never had the power to fulfill?Watch until the end, share your reaction in the comments and subscribe for daily political news, breaking developments and fact-based analysis from Professor Nez.The ICC issued warrants for Netanyahu and former Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant in November 2024 over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. Israel rejects the allegations. Mamdani acknowledged on July 21, 2026, that his administration's legal review concluded New York City could not independently enforce the warrant, although he continued urging federal authorities to act.For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (656) 218-0931 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/nez✅ Reach out to me: https://bio.site/professornez✅ ORIGINAL MADE IN U.S.A 250TH AMERICA DESIGNS: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/✅ Check out our Official Clips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@professornezclips▶ Support the Channel and Buy us a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/professornezEducational Commentary & Original AnalysisThis channel presents educational, lecture-style analysis created by a university professor and educator.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including President Donald Trump rejecting New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's threat to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the International Criminal Court's warrant, declaring America will protect its closest ally; a suspect in custody after an incendiary device attack outside a federal immigration building in Manhattan, where authorities say anti-ICE materials, a manifesto, and pellet guns were recovered; and a new American Heart Association study finding that drinking up to five cups of black coffee a day is safe for most adults and may reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and other cardiovascular conditions; and much more.

On this episode of The Sentinel Report, Alex Newman breaks down the day's biggest stories, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio's warning to the globalist International Criminal Court, new claims from the Trump administration about non-citizens on U.S. voter rolls, and what the Democratic Socialists of America's newly adopted platform reveals about the radical Left's long-term agenda. Then, Alex is joined by an outstanding lineup of guests: Laura Cervantes, a Texas mother suing her local school district over violations of parental rights. Brooks Gibbs, resilience educator and speaker, on concerns surrounding Scientology's takeover of public streets in Clearwater, Florida. Ieda and Adauto Denardi, Brazilian homeschooling parents, along with their attorney Isabelle Monteiro, after the couple was imprisoned for homeschooling their children. Pastor Paul Blair, former NFL player and founder of Liberty Pastors, on the crucial role pastors must play in restoring America's constitutional and biblical foundations. Don't miss this packed program covering the latest developments in politics, education, religious liberty, parental rights, and the battle for freedom in America and around the world.

Here's why Mamdani really wants to extradict Netanyahu to the International Criminal Court for trial. The liberal RINO machine in South Carolina makes a desperate move. You are also watching the last, desperate gasp of the Bush-Rove machine. (Please subscribe & share.)

From February 3, 2025: Nema Milaninia, a former prosecutor at the International Criminal Court and International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and a current partner at the law firm King & Spalding, joins Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien to discuss legislation in the U.S. Congress and recent executive actions taken by the Trump administration to, once again, sanction the International Criminal Court. Milaninia discusses what is motivating the most recent sanctions campaign, broke down the many criticisms—some legitimate, some less so—against the Court, and explained why sanctions, which are typically reserved for criminal organizations, would benefit no one. He also speaks about how, despite the ICC's best efforts to insulate itself, sanctions pose an existential threat to the institution.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Ralph welcomes back his old running mate, Native American activist, Winona LaDuke, who has devoted her life to advocating for Indigenous control of their homelands, natural resources, and cultural practices to talk about her latest incarnation: hemp farmer. Then, we'll speak to Hal Weitzman, from the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business, about how Elon Musk's feud with Delaware may transform corporate America. Plus, we tick off Robert Reich's ten policy prescriptions the Democratic Party should fight for to beat the GOP in the upcoming midterms.Winona LaDuke is an activist, economist, and author, who has devoted her life to advocating for Indigenous control of their homelands, natural resources, and cultural practices. She is also a two-time vice-presidential candidate with Ralph Nader. Ms. LaDuke lives and works on the White Earth Ojibwe reservation in northern Minnesota, where she runs Winona's Hemp & Heritage Farm. She is also a member of the Indigenous Hemp & Cannabis Farmer's Cooperative.I'm looking first at seed sovereignty. We're growing [European hemp] varieties and then we're growing these feral hemp varieties. They're called feral varieties (which of course, that's something that I love) which means that when they eradicated hemp in the 1930s with the Marijuana Prohibition Act—well, they missed some spots. And those guys kept growing. And so 80 years of being illegal—isn't that great? Something that's illegal for 80 years is still with us, rocking out. And so I figure if you grew illegally for 80 years, you are really a tough hemp plant…And so we are growing out these hemp varieties and built a cooperative because we want to own the seeds and we want to own the technology (the value-added processing), and we want to use this hemp as a part of our future as tribes.Winona LaDukeMy grandsons are farming. I don't know who else can say their grandchildren are farming—let me know. My grandchildren are farming. They're running the horses. They're running the farms. You know, that's a retirement plan. My 401k will be worth nothing, but my grandchildren will feed me. This is my strategy.Winona LaDukeHal Weitzman is Executive Director for Intellectual Capital at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, editor-in-chief of Chicago Booth Review, and host of The Chicago Booth Review podcast. A former Financial Times editor and foreign correspondent, he is the author of Latin Lessons: How South America Stopped Listening to the United States and Started Prospering and What's the Matter with Delaware?: How the First State Has Favored the Rich, Powerful, and Criminal—and How It Costs Us All.There is a race to the bottom. There's been a race to the bottom for many decades. That's not new. I think it's accelerated somewhat. Delaware has joined that race from having been something of a “premium product” in terms of incorporating companies—Delaware has become a bit more “cut-price” I would say, and in that sense has followed Texas and Nevada. So the conclusion that we have a race to the bottom and it may be worse than Delaware—actually I think Delaware's already there. So it's not that it's getting worse outside of Delaware, it's getting worse including Delaware.Hal WeitzmanThe trend I think we're seeing is the exclusion of small shareholders completely—regardless of the status of your shares, this is about how big you are. And if you're a small shareholder there is no corporate democracy for you… It was practice in the past for activist groups, campaigning groups, to buy one share of a company and then to go to the shareholder meeting so they could make the point that they wanted to make. Now that kind of shareholder democracy is being encroached on. And the extent now is to say: unless you have a large position (regardless of the size of the company and the cost of the shares), you will not be allowed to bring suits against the executives for the correct running of the company.Hal WeitzmanNews 7/17/26* Our top story this week is New York Governor Kathy Hochul's decision to impose a one-year “pause” on the construction of AI data centers across the state. ABC7 reports that this is the first such moratorium in the nation, despite similar attempts in several states, most notably Maine where Governor Janet Mills vetoed a bill to this effect. Hochul argues that the pause is necessary so lawmakers and regulators can formulate “Guardrails to reduce the risk to our energy grid, minimize land disruption, noise pollution, and protect our natural resources, especially our water supply.” Hochul's move comes amidst a broader push against AI data centers from the left. Semafor reports Senator Bernie Sanders proposed a nationwide ban in March and many progressives running for state and local office in the midterms have made this a cornerstone of their campaigns. According to this piece, “In February, polling from Marquette Law School found 70% of all Wisconsinites agreeing that ‘the costs of the data centers outweigh the benefits.' Among Democrats, the number was 85%.”* Another progressive Member of Congress quite literally stepped into another hot-button political issue this week. While visiting a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank Wednesday, Al Jazeera reports armed settlers stopped the van of Representative Ro Khanna and were “later joined by Israeli soldiers who continued to block the road.” In a video, Khanna points out, settlers can be seen “brandishing M4s [rifles], kicking the tyres of our van, laughing at us, mocking at us, videotaping us.” This continued for over an hour and was only resolved when he reached out to the American Embassy, according to Khanna. Israel has responded to this fiasco by blaming Khanna, accusing the congressman of failing to coordinate his trip with the Israeli government; Khanna retorted that “The [Israeli military] is lying” and called for the arrest of the violent settlers. Conservative political commentator Tucker Carlson excoriated U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, writing “An American member of congress is threatened by foreign terrorists carrying American rifles, backed by a foreign military paid for by American taxpayers, and the US ambassador to that country says not a word in defense of his own countryman…It's too much, too insulting and humiliating to America.”* Following his return from occupied Palestine, Khanna again teamed up with Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky to sponsor an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would have removed the “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative” from the must-pass legislation. Responsible Statecraft describes the initiative as “an unprecedented integration of the U.S. and Israeli military industrial complexes,” by creating “an executive agent within the Department of Defense whose sole responsibility is furthering U.S. and Israeli military tech integration across nearly every facet of the defense process.” This article also notes that “Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described this shift in the U.S.-Israel relationship as ‘my plan.'” However, House leadership is not backing this commonsense, bipartisan amendment. In a letter, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said he would vote against the amendment, calling it “overly broad” and claiming the amendment would “restrict our country's ability to confront Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations in the region who are sworn enemies of both the United States and Israel,” per the Times of Israel. However, Jeffries pledged not to whip votes against the amendment and indeed the House Minority Whip, Congresswoman Katherine Clark, voted for the amendment as did Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, despite the opposition of Jeffries and House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar. The Congressional Progressive Caucus reportedly whipped votes in favor of the amendment.* In more Israel-related news, this week Marco Rubio – who serves as Secretary of State as well as the acting National Security Advisor – announced that the State Department will launch a “sweeping campaign to dismantle…the International Criminal Court.” CNN observes that “The administration's ire against the ICC goes back to President Donald Trump's first term, when it targeted the ICC for seeking to investigate alleged war crimes committed by US forces in Afghanistan,” and that since taking office for the second time, the Trump administration has “imposed a slew of sanctions against ICC officials for their attempts to investigate the US and Israel.” CNN also quotes a State Department official who said that top officials, including Secretary Rubio and US ambassadors, “are calling countries as part of a campaign to diplomatically isolate the International Criminal Court.” It is worth noting that “all American presidents since the ICC's ratification have maintained that the ICC does not have jurisdiction over Americans,” and that Congress even passed a law calling for an invasion and occupation of the Hague if any American serviceman was ever prosecuted by the ICC, implying that this crackdown on the court is not about American sovereignty at all but rather the prosecution of Israeli officials for their war crimes in Gaza.* In another stunning story starring Marco Rubio, the New York Times reports the Secretary of State is functionally “running Venezuela from afar.” The Times story characterizes Rubio's position as the “de facto viceroy of Venezuela,” effectively controlling the country's “finances, the distribution of its natural resources and its government.” This story makes clear that while Delcy Rodríguez, the former Vice President of Venezuela under Nicolás Maduro, nominally occupies the presidency, Rubio is the one really calling the shots, with Rubio setting the conditions on what Venezuela's export revenue “can be spent on, and by whom,” and having the authority to approve or deny key governmental appointments in the country, such as the minister of defense. In short, the United States has established a shocking explicitly neo-colonial regime in the country, fulfilling the gravest prognostications of anti-imperialist critics of American intervention in the Bolivarian Republic.* Closer to home, Bloomberg reports the federal government has officially launched a grand jury investigation into the United Auto Workers and the union's outspoken president, Shawn Fain. The investigation stems from accusations made by the union's Vice President, Rich Boyer, who alleged that Fain used his position to secure benefits for his fiancée and her sister – and when Boyer refused to approve the benefits, Fain retaliated by stripping Boyer of his duties as chief negotiator with Stellantis NV. Fain has called the allegations “false” and is accusing Boyer of seeking to influence the upcoming UAW leadership election. Fain also claims that Boyer is the one retaliating after Fain “refused the vice president's request to hire family members to positions in the union.” Fain has long maintained that the Justice Department, and specifically the DOJ-appointed monitor, Neil Barofsky, has a political grudge against him because “the UAW took an anti-war stance about what was happening in Gaza.” According to Bloomberg, “Both Fain and Boyer have slates running and each is accusing the other of attempting to abuse their positions to benefit family.”* This week, another victim of harassment by the federal government, student activist Mahmoud Khalil, filed a landmark civil rights suit alleging that the government conspired with a number of private groups – including the Heritage Foundation, Betar, and Canary Mission – to “suppress criticism of Israel through a coordinated campaign to dox, jail and ultimately deport student activists.” According to the lawsuit, said activists were “nearly automatically targeted by the Federal Defendants for arrest and removal.” Khalil's lawyers argue that this “public-private partnership” could violate the “Ku Klux Klan Act, a Reconstruction-era law that sought to restrict government coordination with vigilante groups.” The suit is led by the Center for Constitutional Rights. The AP reports “Soon after his arrest, both Canary Mission and Betar boasted of their role in flagging Khalil's noncitizen status to the government.” Since Khalil's arrest, Betar has agreed to “dissolve its nonprofit status,” following a lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James accusing Betar's members of harassing Palestinians.* Turning to the state level, this week 12 state attorneys general, led by California's Rob Bonta, filed an antitrust lawsuit seeking to block the acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery by Paramount Skydance, controlled by the Trump-aligned David Ellison. The proposed, $110 billion merger was approved by the Antitrust Division of the Justice Department last month, which reached the dubious conclusion that the merger is “not likely to result in harm to competition or American consumers.” In the filing, Bonta and the state AGs for Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Washington allege that the merger “would extinguish competition between Paramount and Warner Bros. and inflict substantial harm on movie theatres, basic cable distributors, and, ultimately, audiences nationwide.” This from Reason.* In the world of philanthropy, CNBC reports Warren Buffett, the billionaire chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, has “excluded the Gates Foundation from his sizable annual charitable donations.” As this report notes, the Gates Foundation has been among the top recipients of his annual Berkshire donations, totaling $47 billion worth of Berkshire stock since 2006. The reason for the exclusion of the Gates Foundation has been much speculated upon, in particular, whether it was due to the recent revelations about Gates' relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Asked about this, Buffett said that he had “read a great deal…in terms of what happened, with Bill and Epstein,” calling their relationship “distasteful,” but also saying that he “found nothing in there that was beyond what [he] could picture [himself] doing.” Instead of the Gates Foundation, all of this year's donations will go to foundations linked to the Buffett family.* Finally, British multinational diamond conglomerate De Beers, famous for coining the “A Diamond is Forever” tagline in 1947, reported this week that they plan to halt work at their “flagship” Venetia mine in South Africa as demand for the stones wanes. The BBC highlights both slackening consumer demand as well as competition from lab-grown diamonds, particularly those produced in China. That said, the closing of the Venetia mine – the biggest in South Africa, accounting for over 40% of the country's diamond production – will send shockwaves through that country's already shaky economy. That mine alone employs more than 4,000 people, while the mining sector employs nearly half a million. De Beers said they plan to reopen the mine in two years; in the meantime, they are looking to expand copper mining to keep up with demand from AI data centers.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

This week, Marco Rubio declared a crusade against the International Criminal Court, citing the ICC's aim to deny America its sovereignty on behalf of globalist elites. But the New York Times recently reported that the U.S. is managing Venezuela's oil export revenue. Does the "Donroe Doctrine” run against the administration's wider outlook on nationalism? Meanwhile, two fatal ICE shootings, in Maine and Houston, call into question if the public can stomach immigration enforcement ahead of the midterms.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: The battle for the Strait of Hormuz is entering a dangerous new chapter. We examine why the Trump administration has once again shifted its strategy against Iran—and what that tells us about where the war is headed. The remnants of Russia's Wagner mercenary force have reportedly traded the battlefield for the drug trade. We look at allegations that former Wagner fighters are operating a growing opioid empire in one of Africa's most lawless regions. The Trump administration launches a new campaign against the International Criminal Court, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio vowing to curb the tribunal's influence and shield Americans from its jurisdiction.
