In today's episode, we cover Durham Annex Confirms Trump-Russia Hoax Origins Newly declassified findings show Hillary Clinton's campaign fabricated the Trump-Russia collusion narrative to distract from her own email scandal. The FBI launched its Crossfire Hurricane investigation without evidence, with questions mounting over Obama-era intelligence officials' involvement. Clapper Threatened Whistleblower, New Letter Reveals A whistleblower says he was pressured by James Clapper's team to endorse a false intelligence assessment. When he refused, his promotion was threatened. Senate Democrats reportedly ignored his warning. The mainstream press remains silent as Pulitzer Prize-winning outlets avoid revisiting the debunked narrative. Jobs Report and Trump's Federal Workforce Cuts The July jobs number arrives today with major implications for interest rate policy. Meanwhile, 154,000 federal workers have taken Trump's buyout offer. ICE and DHS are ramping up hiring, while the administration pushes toward leaner government staffing. Tariff Deadlines, Trade Deals, and Whirlpool's Comeback Trump's tariffs defuse a looming war between Thailand and Cambodia. New trade deals are signed and global rates reset to a baseline of 10 to 15 percent. Whirlpool celebrates the policy shift, but legal challenges could bring tariff chaos this winter unless Congress steps in. Nvidia Chips for Rare Earths Sparks Backlash Trump authorizes a controversial swap allowing China to buy U.S. AI chips in exchange for critical minerals. Lawmakers are outraged, warning the deal risks U.S. technological leadership. Meanwhile, the White House scrambles to rebuild a domestic supply chain for rare earth magnets. U.S. Missile Shortage and War Readiness During the Israel-Iran conflict, the U.S. used 25 percent of its THAAD interceptor stockpile.

The collapse of the route confirms the migrant crisis was always a policy choice. Arab League Calls for Hamas to Disarm In a rare move, Arab states and Turkey publicly demand Hamas step down and hand over weapons to the Palestinian Authority. While Israel and Trump cautiously welcome the news, aid delivery failures and propaganda missteps complicate hopes for peace. Iran's Cultural Pivot from Islam to Ancient Persia Facing declining popularity, Iran's regime embraces its pre-Islamic Persian heritage. Analysts say the shift is meant to unify the country with cultural pride amid internal discontent and war fatigue. U.S. Opens Visa-Free Travel for Argentina Trump gifts President Milei a visa-free travel program, but critics warn it may increase transnational crime. Lawmakers call for stricter travel vetting and question the expansion of Obama-era ESTA policies. AI's Disruption Hits Rural Colombian Schools Students in a small town near Bogotá are using Meta's AI tool to fake homework, failing tests as a result. Teachers crack down with new policies.

Sam Yerbi, a young Yale-educated labor attorney and board president of the civic organization Thrive LA, offers a stark assessment of Los Angeles's decline. Yerbi arrived as a refugee from Iran to L.A., where he has embodied the American dream in a city that has served as a beacon for immigrants and dreamers. But he paints a not-so hopeful picture of crime, homelessness, and corruption overwhelming the city. Yerbi believes change is possible but requires new leadership and greater civic engagement.
In this week's episode of One Decision, Congressman Bill Foster — the only Ph.D. physicist in Congress — joins hosts Christina Ruffini and Sir Richard Dearlove to examine the widening gap between science and policy in Washington. Foster warns that as the U.S. defunds research and sidelines experts, it risks falling behind in the global race for technological dominance, particularly against China. From the dangers of deregulated artificial intelligence to the unclear status of Iran's nuclear program, Foster outlines the stakes of ignoring science at the highest levels of government.

Support us on Patreon! Keir Starmer announced earlier this year that he would reduce the aid budget to 0.3% of national income, from 0.5%, to fund increased spending on defence. But according to the government's own impact assessment, Labour's deep aid cuts will hit children's education and reduce spending in women's health. Why are women worse affected by aid cuts? Because crisis is sexist. When disaster strikes, women are 14 times more likely to die than men. In Gaza, UN analysis showed close to 70% of verified victims over a six-month period were women and children. But women are also underrepresented in decision-making about how aid is distributed, and so the solutions rarely reflect this. In this episode recorded 2023, Media Storm partnered with the International Rescue Committee to platform the lived experience of women in disaster zones— not just as victims, but as leaders of solutions. The IRC makes a conscious effort to place women at the centre of emergency responses, and has connected us with pioneers in Yemen, Pakistan and the world's biggest refugee camp: Kakuma, in Kenya. We also hear voices from Afghanistan, Nigeria and North American indigenous communities, who reveal how conflict and climate change disproportionately impact women and girls. We were then joined in the studio by actress and Amnesty ambassador Nazanin Boniadi, to look at how a male-dominated mainstream media and Eurocentric headlines can hide the realities facing women of the world. We look at the unique case of Iran, where women have revolted following the state murder of Mahsa Amini in 2022, and the press' crucial role in fighting for human rights for everybody.

In this fiery and controversial monologue, the host draws shocking parallels between modern university policies and early Nazi Germany, focusing on UCLA's $6 million settlement over alleged “Jew exclusion zones” during anti-Israel campus protests. The transcript alleges Jewish students were physically blocked from parts of campus, harassed, and even pressured to denounce their religion—actions the host equates with state-sponsored antisemitism. With additional commentary on Trump's role in forcing universities like Columbia and Harvard to pay massive fines and implement anti-discrimination oversight, the speaker frames these events as a major civil rights victory. The segment argues that Trump's aggressive federal response is not only restoring equal rights for Jewish students but dismantling a system of left-wing ideological terror on campuses—one allegedly funded by hostile foreign powers like Iran.

Edition No206 | 30-07-2025 - This is Silicon Bites first travel review episode. Well not really, it's about the dwindling number of places available to Russians for mass tourism, as they are excluded from many countries, and the declining value of the rouble makes more destinations financially unattainable. The question Russians are now asking themselves in greater numbers is where should we holiday this year? Occupied Ukraine, a War Zone, of North Korea, the Hermit Kingdom. We also should ask, should Russians even be getting visa to holiday in Europe, in the context of the full-scale genocidal war it has launched against Ukraine, and hybrid attacks on Europe? ----------Today: holidays reshaped by occupation, isolation, and sanctions—where Russian tourism also serves as a chilling propaganda tool. We're diving into four related stories:1. Beaches in occupied Ukrainian territories turned into Russian holiday zones.2. The emergence of Russian tourism in North Korea via new direct flights.3. Russia intensifying travel to places like Afghanistan and Iran.4. The controversies over Russian tourists seeking European visas.It's not all sun, sand and fun. These holidays contain some anxiety, trauma and are based on a complete moral bankruptcy not only of the Russian government, but also its people. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------DESCRIPTION:Russian Tourism's Dark Side: Occupation, Isolation, and Moral BankruptcyIn this first travel review episode of Silicon Bites, we explore the limited holiday options available to Russian tourists amidst the ongoing war in Ukraine and international sanctions. The episode is broken into four segments: Russian holidays in occupied Ukrainian territories, new direct flights to North Korea, unusual destinations like Afghanistan and Iran, and the controversy over Russian tourists seeking European visas. We discuss the moral implications of these travels and how Russian tourism is being used as a geopolitical tool to normalize occupation and build alliances with rogue states.----------CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction and Channel Support00:45 The Dilemma of Russian Tourism02:10 Russian Holidays in Occupied Ukraine05:16 North Korea: The New Russian Tourist Destination07:09 Exploring Unusual Destinations: Afghanistan and Iran08:34 The Controversy Over Russian Visas in Europe09:46 Conclusion and Moral Reflections----------SOURCES: https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/07/25/sun-sea-and-the-russian-flag-inside-vacation-season-on-the-beaches-of-occupied-ukraine-a89973 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/28/moscow-pyongyang-direct-flights-russia-to-north-korea-tourists https://www.thedailybeast.com/russian-tourists-get-a-nightmare-new-vacation-destination-as-flight-choices-dwindle/ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwyrk588dlro https://www.csmonitor.com/World/Europe/2025/0619/russia-tourism-vacation-iran-korea-afghanistan ----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

The Middle East is being remade at this very moment. With missiles flying between Iran and Israel with US engagement, and Gaza in rubbles, what will the future hold? Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert says he hopes for peace. In a wide-ranging conversation with CBS Evening News Co-Anchor John Dickerson, Olmert speaks passionately about the state of his region — from Israel's war with Hamas and the crisis in Gaza to the likelihood that Iran's nuclear program wasn't completely wiped out in the June bombing.

Everyone's talking about AI these days, especially in cybersecurity. Sure, artificial intelligence can boost your defenses, but cybercriminals have noticed too. Now they're crafting phishing emails so believable it's scary and finding clever paths around spam filters while zeroing in on vulnerabilities you didn't even realize were there. Today, Aviad Hasnis joins the show. He's the CTO of Cynet Security and spent years running cybersecurity missions for the Israeli Defense Forces. Aviad's here to help us figure out what the changing threat landscape really means, whether you're leading a corporate giant or just trying to keep your small business safe. From passwords getting scooped up to VPN setups from a decade ago that no one updated, Aviad's seen just about everything go wrong. He also explains why copy-pasting AI-generated code might open you up to attacks you never saw coming. He's big on education, common sense, and making sure you're using multiple security layers. These days even one slip-up can give attackers exactly what they're looking for. Aviad also walks us through supply chain vulnerabilities and why they should keep you up at night. Whether you're the CISO of a Fortune 500 company or you're running a small team with Bob, the go-to tech person juggling 18 other tasks, this episode is packed with practical insights to help you avoid the next big cybersecurity headache. While AI might be reshaping the cybersecurity landscape, staying secure still comes down to thoughtful planning, human judgment, and making sure someone you trust has your back. Show Notes: [01:08] Aviad has been Cynet's Chief Technology Officer for the past five years. Prior to that, he worked in cyber security for the Israeli Army. [02:18] He was always fascinated with computers and technology. When Iran had a technology problem, he realized that cybersecurity was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. [03:19] Aviad shares a story about his friend's mother being exposed to a scam. She received a phone call from someone pretending to be a police officer. She even installed different executables on her laptop. She didn't realize she was being victimized until she transferred over five grand. [06:07] Social engineering is one of the most dominant ways to gain access. [08:39] The security implications of using AI. [09:30] It's important to have guardrails with how you use AI. [10:28] If you're just copying and pasting code you may copy something that could be vulnerable to exploits. [11:16] People need to be aware of the types of risk and educate themselves. [12:49] Conversations at the C-suite level for implementing AI. [13:43] The challenge is to harness AI the right way without replacing people. [15:18] It's important to use critical thinking when creating with AI. [16:04] AI is helping security by allowing people to consult and get information. You can also introduce vulnerabilities into your application if you just copy and paste from chat GPT without knowing the context. [17:05] The bad guys can also use AI. [17:56] AI has improved the quality of phishing scams. [21:36] Where organizations are missing out when it comes to sniffing out threats. This includes VPNs and SaaS or cloud. [22:52] Employees could be using their home computers to connect to the company VPN and then their kids might download some malware or trojan. Companies need to use two-factor authentication when it comes to VPNs. [24:11] Email phishing can be another way to steal credentials. [27:54] The most effective approach is security layers. [30:40] Another security measure is creating profiles where we know where you're logging in from. [33:35] Is this doom and gloom for small businesses? [34:48] The best solution for small businesses would be to find a company with an all-in-one solution. [37:11] The importance of being proactive, so you can act quickly if you see something suspicious. [38:24] How the move to the cloud affects security. [39:08] Shifting to the cloud is safer. [44:20] New threats on the horizon include threat actors utilizing AI. They love to get control of remote applications. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Depuis l'offensive du mouvement islamiste palestinien, Israël a déclenché sa riposte militaire à coups de bombardements dans la bande de Gaza, en Cisjordanie, au Liban et en Iran, plongeant toute la région dans la guerre. Alors que des milliers de personnes ont perdu la vie, que Gaza souffre de la faim, que les économies dévissent, le reste de la population vit dans l'attente des pourparlers, des trêves et des négociations. Dans la région du Moyen-Orient et d'Afrique du Nord, 54% de la population a moins de 30 ans, selon les Nations unies.

“Eighty years ago this week,” writes Vermont journalist Garrett Graff, “a group of physicists and military leaders changed warfare — and the world — forever.”August 6 marks the 80th anniversary of the United States atomic bombing of Hiroshima, Japan, which was followed three days later by the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. These two bombings are estimated to have killed over 200,000 people.Graff recounts the scientific and political backstory of the dawn of the nuclear age in his latest book, “The Devil Reached Toward the Sky: An Oral History of the Making and Unleashing of the Atomic Bomb.” This exhaustive work includes testimonies from 500 people who “tell the intertwined story of nuclear physics, the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1930s, the arrival and advance of World War II in the Pacific, and the tremendous effort of the Manhattan Project to deliver two atomic bombs that helped end the war, as well as the haunting on-the-ground stories of Hiroshima and Nagasaki themselves,” writes Graff.Graff says that the story of what gave rise to the nuclear age is “as important now as ever,” as countries around the world, such as Iran, are racing to start or expand their nuclear arsenals.“The world actually stands much closer to the edge of nuclear danger than we have for most of the 80 years since the end of World War II,” Graff told The Vermont Conversation. “This year has already seen two major world conflicts set against nuclear tensions. We've seen open warfare between India and Pakistan already this spring, the two largest nuclear arsenals to ever come into open conflict in world history. And we also saw, of course, the US and Israeli strikes against the Iranian nuclear program.”“There's a possibility, ironically, 15 years after Barack Obama tried to set us on a path toward nuclear abolition, where in the 2020s and 2030s we may actually see more countries join the nuclear club than have ever existed before.”Garrett Graff describes himself as a historian whose work is often filed under current events. He writes about inflection points in history with an eye towards how they impact the present and future. This includes his 2024 book, “When the Sea Came Alive: An Oral History of D-Day,” and his 2022 book, “Watergate: A New History,” which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in History. He is also the editor of an oral history of the COVID-19 pandemic in Vermont that was published earlier this year by the Vermont Historical Society.Graff has had a busy 2025. This spring, his 7-part podcast series dropped, “Breaking the Internet.” In it, he explores how a tool that promised to bring people together has instead driven them apart and has fueled authoritarian movements. This is the fourth season of Long Shadow, Graff's award-winning history podcast.Graff also shares his writing about current politics in his online newsletter, Doomsday Scenario.Graff said that as the U.S. approaches its 250th anniversary, “We are witnessing an unraveling of our small-d democratic traditions in the United States and sort of backsliding in our democracy and the creeping approach of authoritarianism.”“It doesn't feel [like] a coincidence to me that we are watching this backsliding in our democracy at the precise moment 80 years later where we are losing the last members of the Greatest Generation,” those who lived through the Great Depression and World War II. “There is no preordained rule that America remains a democracy," Graff said. "And there's no preordained rule that we remain an economic hegemon. We let both of those things disappear at our own societal and national peril.”
Kann der Sohn des letzten Schahs dem Iran die Freiheit bringen?
Wasser ist knapp im Iran. So knapp, dass die Regierung in Erwägung zieht, Teheran zwangsweise zu schliessen, sogar über eine Verschiebung der Hauptstadt wird nachgedacht. Iran ist nur eine von vielen Gegenden mit Wasserstress. Wie leben die Menschen damit – was passiert, wenn sie am Hahn drehen? Habt Ihr Fragen oder Themen-Inputs?

Why fight with tanks when you can cripple enemies with trade? Here, Chokepoints author Edward Fishman reveals the new rules of economic warfare.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1189What We Discuss with Edward Fishman:Invisible choke points give US asymmetric power. The dollar dominates 90% of global foreign exchange, enabling sanctions on countries with no US involvement, like blocking China-Iran oil payments.Economic warfare threshold lowered, impact increased. Unlike naval blockades requiring military force, cutting countries from dollars/semiconductors imposes "just as much economic harm" with less risk.China built counter-arsenal after 2018. China now controls 99% of rare earth minerals, batteries, and clean tech supply chains, and recently forced the US to back down using export controls as leverage.US-Europe split weakens economic leverage. Acting unilaterally pushes allies toward Euro alternatives, reducing dollar dominance that enables effective sanctions against adversaries.Economic warfare offers hope over military conflict. Understanding these dynamics enables democratic participation in choosing economic tools over shooting wars.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

In this episode, Dr. Michael Easley welcomes back Dr. Jeff Myers—president of Summit Ministries and author of the new book Raising Gender-Confident Kids. They begin with a candid conversation about Israel's unique geopolitical role, the apocalyptic ideology driving Iran, and the rising anti-Israel sentiment among young Americans. Dr. Myers explains how misinformation, poor education, and Marxist ideology have shaped a generation that views Israel and America as colonial oppressors. The conversation then shifts to the troubling rise in gender confusion among children and young adults. Drawing from his book, Dr. Myers exposes the well-funded, ideologically driven agenda behind radical gender ideology, the manipulation of language, and the alarming influence of social media. He highlights how biblical truth, parental presence, and real conversations can bring clarity and hope. Takeaways Israel's conflict is deeply tied to Iran's apocalyptic ideology, not just geopolitics. Social media is the accelerant fueling unprecedented gender confusion among young people. The manipulation of language is intentional—designed to reshape worldviews and suppress dissent. Nearly 40% of American young adults now identify as LGBTQ, including 30% within the church. Public schools are actively indoctrinating children with gender ideology, often without parental knowledge. Biblical truth and parental love are essential to raising secure, gender-confident kids.

We face a special challenge in America.James Naughtie speaks to veteran US politician John Kerry about the state of American politics and his long career at the top of global affairs.As well as standing for president himself as the Democratic candidate in 2004, he served as Secretary of State in the Obama administration and as Joe Biden's climate envoy. Secretary Kerry was at the centre of some of the most significant global crises in recent history from Iraq to Iran and Syria. He still believes one of America's greatest foreign policy mistakes was invading Iraq in 2003 without first seeking formal approval from the US Congress.He is forthright in his views on America today, saying he has never seen anything like what the country is living through. He describes politics as defined by greed and insensitivity, and guided by the lowest aspirations. For his Democratic party to return to power once more, he challenges them to face and address the issues the American people care about, including immigration.

What does a truly progressive foreign policy look like—and what happens when we abandon it? Foreign policy often feels like a conversation for elites. But in this episode, Sara Haghdoosti, Executive Director of Win Without War, argues otherwise. She joins Jen Taylor-Skinner to unpack how the collapse of diplomacy between the U.S. and Iran—and Israel's recent strikes—have pushed the world dangerously close to a wider war. Together, they explore the long-term consequences of abandoning the Iran nuclear deal, the myth that Americans don't care about foreign policy, and how militarism abroad fuels violence and repression at home. Most importantly, Sara explains why people-led movements—not politicians—are our best hope for peace. They also discuss the critical role of women at the negotiating table, the urgent need to demystify foreign policy, and how today's most pressing threats—like climate change and displacement—can only be solved through diplomacy. (00:01) US Foreign Policy in the Middle East Israel-Iran tensions, human impact, historical context of Iran nuclear deal, role of sanctions, and importance of people-led movements for peace. (11:19) Progressive Foreign Policy and Diplomatic Solutions Foreign policy, racism, and domestic impact are explored, emphasizing the need for progressive diplomacy and civil society's power in shaping political discourse. (20:00) Reimagining US Foreign Policy and Diplomacy Feminist activism, female leadership, grassroots organizing, and broadening perspectives in U.S. foreign policy. (33:13) Challenging Islamophobia and Building Progress Society's progress in combating Islamophobia, resistance to divisive rhetoric, and interconnectedness for a safer world.

Bill Maher and YouTube star Brian Tyler Cohen dive into the chaos of modern politics in a freewheeling conversation covering everything from wrestling and weed to identity politics and the Iran deal. They debate whether Democrats are too focused on checking boxes to win elections, break down Trump's psychological warfare, and label one rising Democratic star “a walking campaign ad for Republicans." Stick around for a wild analogy that somehow combines wrestling, lactose intolerance, and socialism.
