Tucker Carlson recently did an expose on Thomas Matthew Crooks, the man who got within a fraction of an inch of assassinating President Donald Trump. Biden's FBI claimed he was a MAGA extremist right-winger with a questionable online digital footprint. However, Tucker questions a lot of the notions you've been fed regarding this would-be assassin. Did Biden's FBI lie about Crooks? Glenn asks the questions that need answers regarding the investigation into Trump's would-be assassin.

This week, we’ll hear from actor Michael Iskander who currently portrays King David on the House of David series. Michael opens up about his unconventional route to acting, the prayer and fasting that became his ritual as he waited to hear whether or not he would be cast in his dream role, and what portraying David has taught him about trusting God in every moment and in every decision. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Christian Dearman—a professional baseball player with the Savannah Bananas, a team known not just for their show-stopping performances, but their heart for people. Christian shares how his journey toward the big leagues was nearly cut short by a career-threatening injury and how that difficult season became a turning point in his faith.

Maybe it feels like we’re throwing a tiny rock in the ocean and it has no ripple effect. God wills for that to happen, because He is pruning us and training us for something bigger.” - Michael Iskander “Prayer is extremely important, and always having a moment of reflection of why we’re doing this is vital. For me, the show is not about David. The show is about God. I think even in the acting process of this, God was teaching me just to let go of any sort of idea of control that I have and just to surrender to Him and to trust that prayer is powerful.” - Michael Iskander “I’m just so grateful that God had put me into a positive mindset, because through reading Scripture, I was learning a lot of verses that I was looking at as motivational quotes.” - Christian Dearman “It’s insane because at one point, they were telling me I would never be able to pick up baseball again, and now, my name is in the Hall of Fame. It’s surreal. God is so good all the time.” - Christian Dearman “What I am able to do every single game is connect with kids about Jesus with something as simple as just wearing a cross.” - Christian Dearman “If you could add just a smile to brighten someone’s day—that’s truly God’s work right there.” - Christian Dearman “It doesn’t matter what you’re going through—Jesus already accomplished the ultimate goal.

Faith in God - Fr. Mark Iskander by Saint Mary Coptic Orthodox Church, East Brunswick, NJ

El nadador de Galdakao, que ya logró la Triple Corona tras nadar en Manhattan, el Canal de la Mancha y el Canal de Catalina, ha superado ahora una de las travesías más duras del planeta. El cruce del Canal del Norte solo es posible en condiciones muy específicas de marea y meteorología. Tras dos años de preparación, varios intentos fallidos y dos viajes, Sagarminaga completó la travesía en 10 horas y 28 minutos, convirtiéndose en el primer vasco y el número 176 en el mundo en lograrlo.

*ESSE VÍDEO FOI GRAVADO ANTES DA MAIS RECENTE TROCA DE ATAQUES ENTRE IRÃ, ISRAEL E EUA.À medida que a guerra na Ucrânia completa três anos, um novo padrão de combate domina o cenário mundial: ataques estratégicos com drones e mísseis. A Rússia e a Ucrânia trocam ataques devastadores diariamente, utilizando mísseis Iskander, drones Shahed e sistemas táticos dos EUA (ATACMS). O fenômeno não é exclusivo ao conflito europeu: Houthis, Israel, Irã e inúmeros outros atores globais adotam estratégias semelhantes, redefinindo radicalmente o conceito histórico de guerra aérea.A tecnologia avançada tornou drones e mísseis mais baratos, precisos e acessíveis, permitindo que até grupos não estatais desafiem potências tradicionais. Contudo, apesar do fascínio por essa nova forma de combate estratégico, permanece uma dura realidade histórica: ataques aéreos raramente conseguem vencer guerras sozinhos.O vídeo explora essa transformação da guerra moderna, analisando como drones e mísseis substituíram os antigos bombardeiros estratégicos, questionando sua real eficácia em alcançar vitórias decisivas. Com conflitos internacionais cada vez mais entrelaçados devido à capacidade de atacar alvos distantes, o risco de escaladas regionais e globais aumenta significativamente.Ao final, uma conclusão alarmante: enquanto Estados e grupos insurgentes buscam soluções rápidas e baratas através de ataques estratégicos, quem sofre são as populações civis e infraestruturas essenciais, vítimas de um conflito que promete muito, mas entrega pouco resultado concreto.

We wtorek, 22 kwietnia, w obwodzie włodzimierskim w centralnej Rosji doszło do potężnej eksplozji. Rosyjskie Ministerstwo Obrony twierdzi, że przyczyną był błąd ludzki, ale ukraińskie źródła wskazują, że w zniszczonym magazynie przechowywano m.in. pociski Toczka i rakiety Iskander.Komentarz Mariusza Marszałkowskiego z redakcji Defence24.

C dans l'air du 18 avril 2025 : Trump: quand ça veut pas ...Le président américain est-il en train de prendre ses distances avec le conflit ukrainien ? "La guerre entre la Russie et l'Ukraine est la guerre de Biden, pas la mienne", a commenté Donald Trump en début de semaine sur son réseau Truth social, alors que le cessez-le-feu qu'il se vantait d'obtenir en 48 heures après son retour à la Maison-Blanche, puis en cent jours, ne se profile toujours pas à l'horizon, trois mois après le début de son deuxième mandat. Ce vendredi, Marco Rubio, le secrétaire d'État américain, a jugé nécessaire de "déterminer dans les prochains jours" si la paix est "faisable" en Ukraine. "Si ce n'est pas possible, nous devons passer à autre chose" car "les Etats-Unis ont d'autres priorités", a lâché le secrétaire d'Etat américain à quelques journalistes au pied de son avion à l'aéroport parisien du Bourget.Mercredi et jeudi, le chef de la diplomatie américaine a participé à une série de réunions à Paris, accompagné de Steve Witkoff, l'envoyé spécial de Donald Trump. Américains, Ukrainiens, Français, Britanniques et Allemands étaient dans la capitale afin d'évoquer un cessez-le-feu entre Kiev et Moscou. "Je pense que le Royaume-Uni, la France et l'Allemagne peuvent nous aider, faire avancer les choses et nous rapprocher d'une résolution. J'ai trouvé leurs idées très utiles et constructives", a commenté le chef de la diplomatie américaine. "À la marge, nous serons prêts à aider quand vous serez prêts à la paix mais nous n'allons pas poursuivre cet effort pour des semaines et des mois", a-t-il également prévenu, en rappelant que cette guerre, déclenchée en février 2022, "se déroule sur le continent européen".Parallèlement, les États-Unis ont voté mercredi pour la deuxième fois en deux mois contre une résolution des Nations unies condamnant la guerre d'agression russe à grande échelle menée contre l'Ukraine depuis 2022, confirmant le renversement d'alliance initié par Donald Trump. Depuis son investiture en janvier dernier, le président Trump a opéré un rapprochement spectaculaire avec Vladimir Poutine et affirme œuvrer pour un cessez-le-feu rapide en Ukraine. Mais les négociations n'avancent guère. Kiev avait cédé à la pression américaine en acceptant une trêve inconditionnelle de 30 jours, rejetée depuis par la Russie. Steve Witkoff, émissaire spécial de Trump, a rencontré le président russe pour la troisième fois début avril.De son côté, la France a salué un "excellent échange" sur l'Ukraine à Paris dans un format "inédit" entre Américains, Ukrainiens, Français, Britanniques et Allemands, qui a "permis de converger" sur l'objectif d'une "paix solide" entre Kiev et Moscou. "Nous avons déclenché aujourd'hui à Paris un processus qui est positif et auquel les Européens sont associés", s'est félicitée la présidence de la République. Une nouvelle réunion des émissaires de ces cinq pays est prévue la semaine prochaine à Londres.D'ici là, cette année encore, les Ukrainiens se préparent à passer le week-end de Pâques dans un pays en guerre, bombardé sans relâche par la Russie. Ces derniers jours plusieurs grandes villes ont été frappées par des attaques russes. L'armée du Kremlin a notamment tiré le dimanche des Rameaux deux missiles Iskander sur Soumy. Le bilan est très lourd : 35 morts et plus de 130 blessés. Nos journalistes s'étaient rendus il y a quelques semaines dans la ville, où chaque jour plusieurs centaines de personnes sont en quête d'un abri après avoir fui les attaques de drones et les tirs d'artillerie devenus quotidiens pour les habitants des villages proches de la frontière.Alors les Etats-Unis sont-ils en passe de lâcher les négociations de paix sur l'Ukraine ? Plusieurs services de renseignement font état des milliers de soldats russes massés à la frontière. Vladimir Poutine se prépare-t-il à lancer une offensive majeure avant le 9 mai, date du 80e anniversaire de la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale ? Face aux annonces des politiques de "monter en puissance" les cadences de productions d'armements, comment l'industrie française de la défense s'organise-t-elle ?

Europos akcijų ateities sandoriai smuko, reaguodami į naujienas: JAV prezidentas Donaldas Trumpas nesutiko atšaukti plataus masto tarifų prekybos partneriams, o Kinija ėmėsi atsakomųjų veiksmų, dar labiau pakurstydama prekybos karą.Dalis ekspertų kritiškai vertina idėją įvesti cukraus mokestį ir ragina valdančiuosius išvis nekeisti mokesčių sistemos.Per paskutinę rusų oro ataką, kuri buvo nukreipta į Ukrainos sostinę Kyjivą, paleistos bent 5-ios Iskander balistinės raketos. Skelbiama, kad ukrainiečių ginkluotosios pajėgos numušė vieną. Daliai ekspertų kelia nerimą tokia statistika ir jie kelia klausimą, kodėl nepavyksta jas numušinėti taip sėkmingai, kaip tai pavykdavę anksčiau.Šalčininkuose iki politikės namų bus nutiestas asfaltas. Oficiali versija - atliepta į gyventojų prašymą. Tačiau vietos seniūnaitė atvirai papasakojo, jog keliuką iki kaimo suorganizavo pati politikė: sutvarkė visus dokumentus, gyventojams tereikėjo sudėti parašus. Kelias įtrauktas į prioritetinių objektų sąrašą vos per du mėnesius nuo parašų surinkimo.Ved. Darius Matas

Le territoire de 15 000 mètres carrés frontalier de la Pologne, de la Lituanie et de la Biélorussie et relié à la Russie à travers les 70 kilomètres du corridor de Suwalki, est à la fois une forteresse ultra-militarisée au bord de la mer Baltique et un territoire qui entretenait avant la guerre en Ukraine et les sanctions occidentales des liens étroits avec l'Europe. Reportage dans ce territoire « baromètre » des relations UE-Russie. De notre envoyée spéciale à Kaliningrad,Kaliningrad, fin de journée, un stade dans la ville. Une partie de football dans la lumière claire du printemps malgré le froid, des coureurs sur la piste et deux adolescents de 17 ans qui déboulent, sourire aux lèvres, mais visage sérieux. Pavel et Eugène sont venus s'entraîner pour leurs futurs concours d'écoles supérieures. Membres d'un des clubs militaro-patriotiques de la ville, ils visent des établissements d'études militaires supérieures prestigieux en Russie.Pavel postule à l'École navale de Saint-Pétersbourg, « parce que je considère qu'être militaire dans notre pays est un honneur » dit-il ; Eugène à l'École supérieure d'artillerie de Moscou. Ce dernier se définit comme « un patriote qui veut défendre son pays jusqu'à la dernière goutte de son sang ». Eugène se dit aussi « convaincu que les Iskander sont des armes de haute technologie capables d'accomplir n'importe quelle mission et fier que nos scientifiques puissent réaliser de telles performances avec cette arme ».Les Iskander sont déployés à Kaliningrad depuis 2018. Ces missiles sont capables d'envoyer des charges conventionnelles ou nucléaires à 500 kilomètres et peuvent donc atteindre rapidement plusieurs pays voisins directs de cette enclave. Cette fierté de les héberger sur le territoire de Kaliningrad, également siège de la flotte russe de la mer Baltique, est évidemment partagée par le dirigeant de leur club qui a demandé à être présenté sous le pseudonyme sous lequel il dit être connu sur les réseaux sociaux et dans la région, celui de Maxim Maximosvky, 37 ans, fonctionnaire dans le civil, volontaire bénévole pour ce club.« Les Iskander, c'est bien que tout le monde y pense et les craigne », avance-t-il. « C'est même très bien. C'est notre totem de protection. Bien sûr, nous sommes un os dans la gorge de l'Europe. » Reste que Maxim Maximosvky se présente comme très proche de la ligne de l'État russe en affirmant : « On ne peut pas dire que Kaliningrad est entourée par des pays ennemis. Pour moi, ils sont, comme Vladimir Poutine les a désignés, des pays "inamicaux". Il n'y a pas si longtemps, la population locale voyageait librement et souvent juste pour la journée en Pologne, en Lituanie, en Allemagne, par bus. La région était très tournée vers l'Europe, et ses habitants largement perçus dans le reste de la Russie comme presque Européens, tout en étant des citoyens russes. Mais quand les frontières ont fermé, ils sont devenus indésirables en Europe. Les citoyens de Kaliningrad se sont donc rappelés qui ils étaient et ont réorienté leur vie. »La nouvelle donne post-2022En juin 2022, la tension est montée en flèche entre Kaliningrad et ses voisins.  Appliquant les sanctions européennes contre la Russie, la Lituanie a bloqué le transit par voie ferrée de certaines marchandises vers ce territoire. Moscou a dénoncé un « blocus ». Jusque-là, tous les mois, une centaine de trains de passagers et de marchandises non militaires reliaient Kaliningrad à la Russie continentale, en passant par la Biélorussie, alliée de Moscou, et la Lituanie, membre de l'Union européenne (UE) et de l'Otan depuis 2004. La mise en place de ce transit était l'une des conditions imposées à la Lituanie lors de son adhésion à l'UE.Après une énorme exposition médiatique, les tensions officielles sont retombées. Mais aujourd'hui, Kaliningrad est surtout reliée pour le trafic des biens à la Russie par des ferrys venus de Saint-Pétersbourg, et si personne ne se plaint tout haut de ruptures d'approvisionnement, on soulève des problèmes de transit. Sous couvert d'anonymat, une cadre d'une usine de viandes a ainsi affirmé à RFI que ses camions vers la Russie continentale pouvaient être bloqués des jours entiers pour de longs contrôles douaniers organisés par la Lituanie, handicapant ainsi ses exportations, très dépendantes de dates limites de consommation. En 2023, des médias d'investigation comme Siena ont eux révélé que des engrais biélorusses sous le coup de sanctions européennes continuaient de transiter par le pays balte. Le ministère des Transports avait, dans la foulée, annoncé un renforcement des contrôles à toutes ses frontières.L'inflation, elle, déjà très élevée en Russie, bat des records à Kaliningrad : + de 10 % rien qu'en décembre, selon les chiffres officiels de l'institut national russe Rosstat.Fondateur il y a plusieurs dizaines d'années d'une entreprise de transport par camion, Serguey Gos affirme, lui, avoir réussi à gérer la nouvelle donne économique sans dommages durables. « Avant 2022, nous travaillions avec presque tous les pays européens, Italie, Autriche, Allemagne, France. De notre pays, nous amenions de la tourbe, du bois, beaucoup de matières premières, et nous importions certains composants. » Aujourd'hui, ce chef d'entreprise affirme avoir réorienté en quelques mois ses activités via les pays classés comme amicaux par la Russie : Turquie, Kazakhstan, Chine. Sa flotte de camions reste très européenne, mais pour ses nouveaux semi-remorques, il dit se fournir désormais auprès d'une usine locale.Si Serguey Gos dit avoir parfaitement encaissé économiquement le choc de 2022 émotionnellement, c'est à ses yeux une autre affaire. « La manière dont les choses se sont passées entre nos collègues occidentaux et nous a été très laide. Et malheureusement, on s'en souvient encore. On attendait une commande d'équipement, elle était payée, et tout d'un coup, l'argent nous a simplement été renvoyé et on nous a dit qu'on ne recevrait rien. On devrait toujours se souvenir, avant de claquer la porte, qu'on pourrait devoir la rouvrir un jour. » Un discours qui résonne avec celui du Kremlin. Celui-ci milite pour la levée des sanctions, mais affirme toujours que ce n'est pas par nécessité économique, mais pour des raisons de principe.À Kaliningrad, peu s'attendent à du changement en la matière. Serguey Gos résume l'état d'esprit général par cette formule : « les sanctions n'ont pas été imposées pour ensuite être annulées rapidement ». Les Européens ont eux réaffirmé leur position la semaine dernière : pas de levée de sanctions avant un retrait « inconditionnel » des forces russes d'Ukraine. Les tensions, elles, continuent à s'accumuler. Un représentant réputé de la communauté d'affaires de Kaliningrad a ainsi annulé une interview prévue avec RFI « en raison du dernier discours d'Emmanuel Macron ». Le président français avait, quelques heures, auparavant, dans une allocution télévisée, fustigé « l'agressivité » de Moscou « qui viole nos frontières » et face à laquelle « rester spectateur serait une folie ». Devant 15 millions de téléspectateurs, Emmanuel Macron avait aussi affirmé que la Russie était « devenue une menace pour la France et pour l'Europe », une Russie qu'il accusait de « tester nos limites dans les airs, en mer, dans l'espace et derrière nos écrans. Cette agressivité ne semble pas connaître de frontières ».La Pologne ainsi que les pays baltes sont aujourd'hui engagés dans de coûteux travaux de fortification de leurs frontières avec la Russie. Poussés par l'inquiétude d'un conflit dans quelques années avec Moscou, ces dernières semaines la Lituanie annoncé quitter la Convention d'Oslo interdisant les bombes à sous-munitions, tandis que la Pologne et les trois pays baltes ont eux déclaré vouloir se retirer de celle bannissant les mines antipersonnel.À lire aussiSites énergétiques visés: Kiev et Moscou font état de «violations» et se tournent vers Washington

Movie director Jon Erwinis someone who has had great success over the years. From October Baby way back in 2011 to Jesus Revolution and back to I Can Only Imagine, the Birmingham, Alabama native has always had a knack for finding and telling stories that resonate with people deeply for their foundational family values told through the lens of faith.Erwin is also someone who is a collector and keeper of past memories that have developed into projects he is passionate about. One needs to look no further than his 2023 releaseJesus Revolution starring Kelsey Grammer and Jonathan Roumie. Intrigued by a 1966 Time Magazine cover stating “Is God Dead?”, Erwin carried around the magazine in his computer bag for nearly a decade before turning that base idea into the aforementioned movie that generated $54 million at the box office.His latest passion project is a new 8-episode limited series currently airing on Amazon Prime called House of David. Stemming from a vivid memory he had visiting Israel with his father at age 16, Erwin thought that one day he could make a sweeping, visually spectacular recreation on the life of King David from the Old Testament.Starring Broadway actor Michael Iskander, Ali Suliman, Ayelet Zurer, and Stephen Lang, House of David tells the story of the ascent of the aforementioned beloved Biblical figure, who eventually becomes the most renowned and celebrated king of Israel.Erwin and Iskander join us on the podcast to discuss the critical importance of Biblical accuracy in retelling David's story, why this popular figure of the Old Testament is considered the first superhero in human history, and how this project humbled each of them.

From growing up in the Middle East where theatre was banned to leading one of London's most innovative cultural spaces, Tarek Iskander's journey is a masterclass in transformative leadership. In this candid conversation, he reveals how his NHS background shapes his mission driven approach at Battersea Arts Centre, championing bold, experimental work while making art accessible through initiatives like "pay-what-you-can" ticketing. His insights on nurturing youth creativity, navigating institutional challenges, and reimagining the arts sector's future offer invaluable lessons for anyone interested in cultural leadership and social impact. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tarek had to radically shift his natural coaching leadership style during COVID-19. He took on more direct control to protect his team from difficult decisions, showing how crisis management can push leaders outside their comfort zones. Through Battersea Arts Centre youth programs, Tarek discovered that having staff who came from local communities mattered more than architectural changes or pricing strategies. His street teams of young people recruiting other young people proved more effective than traditional outreach. Having grown up where the theatre was banned, Tarek's conviction about art's vital role in society led him to transform BAC into a vaccine hub during lockdown while maintaining creative programming - demonstrating how arts venues can serve multiple community needs. Coming from outside the traditional theatre world, Tarek leveraged his outsider perspective to restructure BAC's financial model, generating 50% of income from private business while making performances accessible through pay-what-you-can ticketing. When faced with pressure to post black squares during Black Lives Matter, Tarek chose to commission Black artists to respond creatively instead of making performative gestures. This was a decision that initially received pushback but was later vindicated. Despite ticking only two of the ten criteria for the Arts Council job, Tarek spent a week preparing intensively for the interview, demonstrating his belief that hard work can overcome perceived qualification gaps. Rather than trying to do everything, Tarek made tough decisions to stop running BAC's museum and co-working space to focus on the core missions of supporting creativity in young people and artists. As someone who describes himself as "incredibly shy," Tarek had to overcome significant self-doubt to take on public-facing leadership roles, learning that internal demons often pose bigger challenges than external ones. BEST MOMENTS "Growing up in the Middle East where pretty much most of theatre or live performance was banned for most of my childhood... I had very little exposure to the arts." "I think we never think of our next gen or youth programs as an end to something else... If you believe that the world can be a better place, those new creative ideas are going to come from that next generation." "The biggest obstacles ahead of us are the ones we put up ourselves." "BAC is small enough to be naughty and not have to play by the rules necessarily, but maybe big enough that people often take notice when something happens." "I'm very allergic to things that feel performative or just words.” "Art and performance is so vital that keeping it going and supporting artists and audiences and young people to engage in those ways feels like really critical work." "Don't let the barriers up yourself. Let other people put them up for you." "Sometimes the demons within are probably much tougher than the demons without."

Prasidėjus šildymo sezonui, ugniagesiai gyventojus perspėja tinkamai jam pasiruošti – išsivalyti kaminus, patikrinti, ar veikia dūmų detektoriai.Aktualus klausimas. Kur dedate šiemet gausiai užderėjusius moliūgus, kitas patiems nereikalingas daržoves, vaisius?Vos už kelių kilometrų nuo Lietuvos Rusija esą išrikiavo „Iskander“ raketų paleidimo sistemas. Tokią melagingą informaciją savo „YouTube“ kanale skelbia prorusiškais pasisakymais garsėjantis Vaidas Lekstutis. Valstybės institucijos tokius pareiškimus neigia, o propagandos ekspertai neabejoja, kad taip siekiama sukelti visuomenės pasipiktinimą Lietuvos institucijomis bei jų darbu.Paaiškėjus, kad valstybės institucijas aptarnaujanti finansinių technologijų įmonė „Foxpay“ už pervedimus taikė didesnius tarifus nei turėjo, gyventojai klausia, kam išvis reikalingi mokėjimų tarpininkai, kai patys žmonės ar verslas valstybės institucijoms už paslaugas gali pervesti pinigus tiesiogiai.

On this week's episode of Menopause Conversations (previously the Wise Women Conversations Podcast) we revisit, what happens to relationships as you move through your menopause years. For some women it is a time of new beginnings, for others it is a time of endings, and some may find relationships challenging so in this episode I chat with Couples Counsellor Iman Iskander to talk through all of this.Iman shares the different stages a relationship goes through and what happens if we happen to get stuck at a particular stage of relationship development. We also talk about women who “stay for the kids” and what happens once their kids are older and no longer dependent on them.Relationships with one person for a lifetime can be hard, but are we really supposed to be with the same person for our entire adult life? This is the question that I ask Iman and she shares different research studies that show whether this is a good thing or not. This leads to a conversation about different cultures and how they see relationships and the role of women.This was a great conversation and I am grateful to Iman for share her expertise in this episode, it certainly got me thinking about my relationship. Will I be looking to move to the country and setup a community of only women? Only time will tell, but I do already have the farm in the country!!!If you would like to learn more about the work that Iman does you can visit her website or follow her on Facebook @Culture of Care - AU.

Nicki exemplifies work-life balance with a 4 day work week, a six figure income, and takes extensive time off to travel. She learned that having a solid business plan and mentorship are key aspects to avoid wasting time and take the guesswork out of building a successful business.  She came to massage therapy after a decade of working in the music industry because she saw massage therapy as a profession that provided job security and was dominated by females.  We touch on many key points in this episode including  Small business ownership Cancellation policies and having credit cards on file  How she managed during the COVID-19 pandemic Strategies to prioritizing safety in a home practice  This episode wouldn't be complete without discussing her love of music and the role of music in massage therapy sessions including her well curated and popular playlist “no pan flute” I hope you enjoy this episode with Nicki!  Contact Nicki… Facebook & Instagram: @nicki.rmt - Facebook  Website: https://nickirmt.com  Register For Her Course: Make Money as a Massage Therapist - https://www.conedinstitute.com/money  Spotify "No Pan Flute" https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5YQKuDGt3Dlg7ajE3wmtNa?si=3907e7915be84db8 Bio...Nicki Iskander is a massage therapist in Toronto, Ontario.

On September 29, 2020, the Iskander family of six went out for an evening stroll in their Westlake Village neighborhood having no idea of the tragedy that lay ahead. On that same evening, wealthy socialite Rebecca Grossman was having drinks at a local Westlake Village restaurant with Royce Clayton and Scott Erickson, two former major league baseball players. After downing margaritas, Grossman and Erickson got into their expensive cars and headed toward Grossman's nearby condo to hang out. At some point, the two decided to race each other through the residential neighborhood. At that exact moment, Nancy Iskander and her three sons were crossing the street. Before they could respond, Rebecca Grossman and Scott Erickson came racing toward them in their vehicles fueled by bravado tequila. One of the vehicles struck two of the Iskander boys, Mark and Jacob, killing them. Three and a half agonizing years later, Rebecca Grossman went on trial for Mark and Jacob's murder.  The headline-making trial resulted in a surprising verdict.  Mark and Jacob Iskander foundation: MarkAndJacobFoundation.org Follow Jami on Instagram & TikTok @JamiOnAir and join the Serial Streamers true crime TV club!
