What really happened in the Jeffrey Epstein case — and why do so many Americans believe the full truth is still being hidden?Investigative journalist Nick Bryant joins the Lean to the Left podcast to discuss his 15 years-long investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, alleged government cover-ups, trafficking victims, blackmail claims, and why he says “the cover-up never ended.”Bryant helped bring worldwide attention to the Epstein scandal after publishing Epstein's “Black Book” and flight logs online in 2015. He is also the author of Compromised: The Politics of Sex, Lies, and Blackmail and director of the nonprofit organization Epstein Justice.In this interview, Bryant discusses:

Trump's  DOJ is creating a $1.7 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund.” It's part of a deal resolving Trump's lawsuit over leaked tax returns but will compensate his allies who say they were mistreated by the Biden-era Justice Department. Is America paying attention to the inside job? Democrats and watchdogs are already denouncing the move as an unprecedented taxpayer-funded slush fund and are promising legal challenges. It appears Americans are getting fleeced and Mark Thompson returns to make sure we know exactly what is going down. Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston will stop by to help make sense of it all. Can America be saved? Jared Yates Sexton, political analyst and author of the book The Midnight Kingdom: A History of Power, Paranoia, and the Coming Crisis will join the conversation. The Mark Thompson Show 5/19/26Today's Guests LinksJared Yates Sexton  https://www.jysexton.com/Prof. David Cay Johnston at RIT, Pulitzer Prize winning Author & Investigative Journalist  https://bsky.app/profile/davidcayjohnston.bsky.socialPatreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

In this episode of Media Confidential, Alan and Lionel talk to Gabriel Pogrund, newly appointed editor of Insight, the Sunday Times investigative team. After Gabriel exposed £730,000 in undeclared donations to Labour Together, he and other journalists became victims of a smear campaign. He discusses why the thinktank commissioned an investigation into him—and how he was falsely accused of having Russian ties.As the co-author of Get In: The Inside Story of Labour Under Starmer, Gabriel also discusses the prime minister's leadership.Plus, in an age of weaponised libel laws and abusive SLAPP lawsuits, the trio discuss the challenges facing investigative journalists.

Award-winning journalist Patrick Radden Keefe has made a name for himself by taking complex true crime stories - mysterious deaths, greedy families or shadowy underworlds -and bringing them to light. Patrick has written six books, all best sellers - with Empire of Pain and Say Nothing being the standouts. His latest book is London Falling, a story of London teenager Zac Brettler who mysteriously fell to his death in 2019, and it's available in stores now. "Part of what I was trying to do with this book was look at the way in which any of us as parents, when we're parenting an adolescent - particularly these days when everybody's on their phones - is that the child we thought we knew can start to become somebody unrecognisable."

José Olivares is an independent investigative journalist and audio producer who reports on immigration enforcement, U.S. operations in Latin America, and human rights. He is also the podcast editor for The Border Chronicle, and we're lucky to have him on our team.In this episode, we discuss his recent investigation, “A Mexican Surveillance Giant You've Never Heard of Is Now Watching the U.S. Border,” conducted for the independent nonprofit outlets Rest of World and Type Investigations. José's investigation focuses on the Torre Centinela, or Sentinel Tower, which is nearing completion in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. This massive 20-story surveillance tower is truly dystopian and stands as the tallest structure in the region, overlooking both El Paso and Ciudad Juárez.José toured the tower and examined thousands of government records related to Seguritech, the corporation overseeing the project. He found that surveillance in the borderlands is rapidly growing, often with little oversight, and that intelligence from the Sentinel Tower is being shared among Texas and U.S. federal law enforcement agencies. In Ciudad Juárez, which has faced violence for the past two decades, residents are voluntarily connecting their home security cameras to the Sentinel system with the promise of increased safety. But is it working? Listen to the podcast to find out!Additionally, José explores the recent scandal involving two CIA agents who died during an anti-drug operation with state law enforcement in Chihuahua, which led to the resignation of the state's attorney general.Listen to the Border Chronicle podcast, wherever you get your podcasts.

From fossil fuel lobbying to coordinated political disinformation campaigns, vested interests have built a profitable disinformation infrastructure designed to spread confusion, polarize debate, and exhaust the public. The good news is that the world is waking up. For the first time in the history of the COP, a Declaration on Information Integrity was agreed upon, with governments committing to address climate disinformation and promote accurate, evidence-based information globally.But we need to go further upstream - instead of simply fighting falsehoods, we need to build ecosystems where truth can take root and flourish. In this episode, we look to Brazil and speak to an individual who was integral in bringing information integrity both to COP and the international agenda. She makes the case for cities as one of the most powerful forces in reclaiming the narrative, building the infrastructure of truth from the ground up - one community at a time.Featured guest: Thais Lazzeri, Investigative Journalist and Founder of FALALinks:Declaration on Information Integrity on Climate Change - UNESCOIntegrity Information Observatory - OiiMentiro Tem Preco (Lies Have a Price)Climate Information Integrity5 Million Acts for Truth - FALATomorrow is today - YouTube (Portuguese)500 Grams of Life - Thais Lazzeri (Portuguese) ‘Democracy on the line': Brazil's election and the Bolsonaro disinformation ecosystem - Columbia Journalism ReviewEnvironmental and Climatic Disinformation in Northern Brazil: Dynamics and Impact in the Context of COP-30 - Heinrich Boll StiftungEnvironmental journalism and the struggle against disinformation in Brazil - Frontiers in CommunicationIf you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website at https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/Listen to the Cities 1.5 five-part miniseries “Going Steady with Herman Daly: How to Unbreak the Economy (and the Planet)" here: https://lnk.to/HDMiniSeriesCities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and the C40 Centre, and is supported by C40 Cities.

What really happens inside the world's most dangerous underground economies? And why do the people running them trust a journalist enough to talk? Mariana van Zeller — Emmy- and Peabody Award–winning investigative journalist, host and executive producer of Trafficked on National Geographic, and host of The Hidden Third podcast — has spent years embedded with scammers, smugglers, cartel members, assassins, and black-market power brokers. In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, she pulls back the curtain on the shadow systems that quietly shape the global economy. Mariana breaks down the difference between the black market vs. the grey market, why understanding these hidden economies is the only way to create real change, and how she manages to gain access to some of the most secretive and dangerous players in the world. She explains how empathy, not judgment, is often the key to getting people labeled “the worst of the worst” to open up, and why many of them speak with her because of something surprisingly simple: a deep human need to be heard and understood. She also addresses critics who say she shouldn't give criminals a platform, revealing why listening to these voices is essential to exposing the systems behind global crime. We dive into her most harrowing experiences in the field — including the terrifying moment she and her team weren't sure they would make it out alive, and the time they had to escape a country in the middle of a life-threatening military coup while filming. Mariana also unpacks the current climate in Mexico's drug war, explaining why violence often escalates when major cartel kingpins are taken down, and the troubling implications of the fact that many of the weapons used by cartels originate in the United States. We get into one of the fastest-growing criminal industries in the world: scams. She breaks down everything you've ever wanted to know about romance scams and “pig butchering” operations, including: - Psychological tactics scammers use - Who scammers typically target and why - Massive infrastructure behind modern scam compounds - Why many scammers are actually victims of forced labor themselves - Why victims often stay silent due to shame and stigma Mariana explains why advancing technology, crypto, and AI are making financial scams easier than ever, and why anyone can fall victim — no matter how smart or cautious they are, including the shocking case of a bank CEO who was successfully defrauded. We also explore medical black markets, from organ trafficking to international surrogacy scams, and discuss some of her most intense interviews, from conversations with a suspected Russian sex spy to Anna Delvey, the infamous socialite scammer. Despite spending her career face-to-face with some of the darkest corners of humanity, Mariana reveals something surprising: she still believes deeply in people. In fact, she sometimes finds more hope, honesty, and equality in underground markets than in global governments or legal capitalism.

While advances in early detection and treatment have reduced cancer deaths in many parts of the world, that progress hasn't reached everyone. In India, cancer cases are rising, with nearly 14 lakh diagnoses in 2022—and access to life-saving drugs remains a major challenge.An investigation by The Indian Express, in collaboration with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, reveals how one of the world's leading cancer drugs, Keytruda, remains out of reach for many patients. It also uncovers how gaps in regulation have allowed counterfeit versions of the drug to enter the market.Drawing on over 12,000 documents and records of more than 150 patients, the investigation lays bare the scale of the problem—and its human cost. In this episode, we speak with The Indian Express' Kaunain Sheriff and Anonna Dutt, who led this investigation.Hosted and produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

Last December, President Donald Trump convened a meeting of pharmaceutical executives with the goal of getting them to lower the cost of prescription drugs. A few weeks later, one patient battling lung cancer checked into a California clinic for an infusion of Merck & Co.'s blockbuster cancer drug, Keytruda. When the bill arrived, the clinic's charge for a 400 mg dose dominated the page: It was just over $162,000. While Brown only owed about $2,000 herself, the six-figure charges show how quickly prices for cutting-edge medical treatments can balloon in the U.S. health care system. USA TODAY joined the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists in their year-long, reporting effort looking into rising healthcare costs around the world. USA TODAY Health Reporter Ken Alltucker joined The Excerpt to share his insights.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Today's show is one of the most important shows we have shared. Our longtime associate, friend, and Investigative Journalist, Steve Baker, joins us in our second hour as he does every Tuesday. However, today's different.Steve and his writing partner, Joe Hannaman, have been sitting on one of the most important stories of the decade for months. We have shared in several of the early parts. You'll remember the January 6 "bombs story. Someone left a bomb at both the DNC office and the GOP offices, not far from the U.S. Capitol. The FBI and CIA have inserted themselves into the story shortly after the first part was published by Blaze Media and us at TruthNewsNet.org, and on this show, "TNN Live!" Here's where this stands: Steve and Joe have left the Blaze. They were threatened with termination by Blaze Media if they published the balance of this blockbuster story and recanted part of what had already been published. Both declined.The story belongs to Steve and Joe. They are finishing the expose' and publishing very soon.You're going to love this...and we're ALL in the middle of it with Steve and Joe!

The Defense Department data showed that Fort Bragg had far more overdoses than any other military base in both absolute and per capita terms."

Also weighing in is former Missouri Attorney General, now U.S. Senator, Eric Schmidt. Schmidt gives a massive chain of circumstances that expose the evil initiated in Trump's first term, stayed around during Biden's four years as President, and continues to be a "desperate" ploy of Democrats to try to elicit some support from Americans for Democrats.

How does a former auto mechanic become one of the fastest-rising independent investigative journalists in America? On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with Walter Curt to discuss his unconventional path into journalism, his rapid rise during COVID, and the shocking moment that changed everything—being swatted alongside multiple journalists. Walter dives deep into his investigative work uncovering alleged government fraud, financial crime, and activist networks—explaining why “following the money” may reveal far more than the headlines suggest. He also shares insights into his biggest stories, including a controversial school-related scandal, and what it takes to report on sensitive topics in today’s political climate. Plus, a candid conversation on the personal cost of independent journalism—from threats and family strain to finding purpose and fighting for the next generation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's the only thing that can stop me.” Johnston joins us to discuss the current state of Trump's presidency and the rule of law.

IMPORTING THE MAFIA STATE: THE 2014 MOSCOW DINNER AND THE ROOTS OF TRUMP'S RUSSIAN ENTANGLEMENTS Colleague Craig Unger. Investigative journalist Craig Unger analyzes a pivotal February 2014 dinner in Moscow attended by Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, and prominent Russian oligarchs like Roman Abramovich and Viktor Vekselberg. Occurring just weeks before Russia's invasion of Crimea, Unger suggests this gathering exemplifies how Donald Trump has sought to replicate Vladimir Putin's "mafia state," where a "godfather" figure controls billionaire "capos." Unger argues that the Kremlin's leverage over Trump is primarily financial rather than sexual; Russian entities frequently rescued Trump from bankruptcy and laundered billions through his real estate ventures, such as the Trump SoHo. Consequently, figures like Kushner and Steve Witkoff—who attended the dinner and now act as envoys—are viewed by Moscow not as independent negotiators, but as known operators within a compromised infrastructure exported from Russia to the United States. 1945 POTSDAM: ATLEE, STALIN, TRUMSN

In this final episode of the season, Phelps tracks down someone who claims to know what happened to Shelly and Vincent: where and how they were murdered, who killed them, and why. And this source ain’t no stranger … he’s kin to Shelly Colliflower.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Phelps keeps digging, new sources come forward. Has all of this been some sort of witch hunt to pin the murders on two innocent men, so the real killers walk free?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Small-town rumor and speculation seem to dominate discourse in Weatherford. Phelps has to ask: is Wendy Robinson’s murder connected to Vincent and Shelly’s? When Wendy’s case is finally solved, serial killers are in the mix, Phelps realizes the cases need to head into a new direction if answers are the goal. Until a bombshell out of nowhere is dropped into his lap. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Phelps seems to be getting somewhere with Shelly and Vincent’s case, another teenager is found murdered and sexually assaulted, changing the dynamic and path of his investigation considerably. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Phelps dives deeper, trying to separate fact from rumor, while new suspects come into play—and a third teen murder rocks the town of Weatherford. But could a noted serial killer be responsible for Vincent and Shelly’s murders?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
