Podcast appearances and mentions of israel hamas

This week marked more than 600 days since the start of the Israel-Hamas war. In the wake of Hamas' horrific Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel, Palestinian health officials say at least 50,000 people – including thousands of women and children – have died from Israeli airstrikes and bombings in the Gaza Strip. As the war drags on, protesters on both sides are speaking out and demanding that their governments do more to end the conflict. Shaiel Ben-Ephraim, an Israeli academic and host of the 'History of the Land' of Israel podcast, talks about the nuances of the protests and what they could mean for a potential end to the war.And in headlines: A federal appeals court temporarily reinstated most of President Donald Trump's Liberation Day tariffs, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the U.S. will begin "aggressively" revoking the visas of Chinese college students, and the White House acknowledges errors in the hotly anticipated 'Make America Healthy Again' report.Show Notes:Check out Shaiel's podcast – https://tinyurl.com/5n8axdj2Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

The news is dizzying. President Trump is visiting Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE where he'll meet terrorist leaders, negotiating with Iran that threatens Israel, the US, and the Arab world, and after cutting a deal with the Houthis that leaves Israel out, yet while brokering a deal with Hamas to secure the release of an American-Israeli hostage. There are rumors of Qatar, Hamas' patron and host, gifting a $400 million plane to Trump, raising questions of Qatari influence at a time they have not just supported Hamas, but also anti-Israel/antisemitic protests taking place across America. Head-spinning is an understatement. Even a knowledgeable observer could be forgiven for not understanding it all.

Following direct talks between the U.S. and Hamas officials, Edan Alexander was freed Monday after more than 19 months in captivity in Gaza. He is the last living U.S. hostage in Gaza. The Israel-Hamas conflict has already exacted a devastating toll. More than 52,000 people in Gaza have died, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. Fifty-eight people who were seized by Hamas remain in Gaza, 23 of whom are believed to be alive. Gazans are facing a critical famine risk as Israel blocks aid. Now, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government says it plans to expand the war if Hamas does not meet Israel's demands. Today on “Post Reports,” Elahe Izadi speaks with Middle East reporter Miriam Berger about Israel's plans to escalate the war in Gaza. Today's show was produced by Peter Bresnan with help from Elana Gordon. It was mixed by Sean Carter and edited by Ariel Plotnick with help from Reena Flores.

This Day in Legal History: Rush-Bagot TreatyOn April 16, 1818, the United States Senate ratified the Rush-Bagot Treaty, a landmark agreement with Great Britain that fundamentally reshaped security along the U.S.-Canada border. Negotiated in the aftermath of the War of 1812, the treaty aimed to de-escalate military tensions between the two nations by significantly limiting naval armaments on the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain. Specifically, it allowed each country to maintain only a single military vessel on Lakes Ontario and Champlain and two vessels on the upper Great Lakes, each restricted in size and armament. The treaty marked a mutual commitment to demilitarization and ushered in a new era of diplomacy.The negotiations were spearheaded by Acting U.S. Secretary of State Richard Rush and British Minister to the U.S., Charles Bagot. Though initially framed as an exchange of diplomatic notes rather than a formal treaty, it was nonetheless submitted to the Senate for ratification, reflecting its constitutional significance. The Rush-Bagot Treaty laid the groundwork for what would become the world's longest undefended border. It also set a precedent for the peaceful resolution of border disputes through legal and diplomatic means rather than military force.While tensions between the two nations would persist in other areas, the Great Lakes remained largely free of armed conflict, validating the treaty's long-term effectiveness. Over time, the agreement became a model of arms control and remains in effect today, albeit with amendments reflecting evolving security concerns. Its ratification on this day helped steer U.S.-British relations toward lasting peace and cooperation, especially in North America. The treaty's enduring legacy is a testament to the power of legal frameworks in shaping geopolitical stability.The U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the state of Maine, escalating tensions between the Trump administration and the state over transgender athletes' participation in girls' and women's sports. The suit alleges that Maine is violating Title IX by permitting transgender female athletes to compete on girls' teams, citing recent examples from high school track events. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the action days after the administration attempted to cut off Maine's federal school funding and school lunch programs.This legal move follows a standoff between President Trump and Maine Governor Janet Mills, who rebuffed Trump's executive order banning transgender athletes from female sports. Mills told Trump, “We're going to follow the law, sir. We'll see you in court.” The administration's Title IX-based complaint argues that allowing transgender participation undermines fairness and safety, though no specific safety threats are detailed—of course.The Department of Education had already announced the suspension of $250 million in K-12 education funding for Maine, while the Department of Agriculture sought to freeze school lunch support. A federal judge has temporarily blocked the USDA's actions after Maine sued the federal government. Maine's Assistant Attorney General, Sarah Forster, pushed back, arguing that Title IX does not prohibit schools from including transgender girls in girls' sports and criticized the federal government's lack of legal precedent.US to take legal action against Maine over Trump executive order on transgender athletes | ReutersSenate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced he will block President Trump's nominations of Jay Clayton and Joe Nocella to serve as U.S. attorneys in New York's Southern and Eastern Districts, respectively. Schumer's refusal to return the customary “blue slip” signals his opposition and sets up a potential clash over the Senate tradition that gives home-state senators influence over federal prosecutor and judge appointments. He cited concerns that Trump intends to politicize the Justice Department, accusing him of seeking to weaponize law enforcement against political enemies.Clayton, a former SEC chair, was nominated to oversee the Southern District, which includes Manhattan and is often referred to as the nation's "Wall Street watchdog." Nocella, a state judge, was tapped for the Eastern District, covering Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island. Schumer's move could provoke Republicans to eliminate the blue slip practice for U.S. attorney nominations, as they previously did for circuit court judges.While Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley had earlier indicated he planned to preserve the blue slip process for U.S. attorney picks, growing political tensions may lead to changes. The debate echoes earlier pressure on Democrats to bypass blue slips during the Biden administration for nominees in states with GOP senators. Meanwhile, other Democratic senators, like Adam Schiff, are also using procedural holds to delay nominees they find objectionable, such as Ed Martin, who previously defended January 6 participants.Schumer to Block Jay Clayton as Top US Prosecutor in ManhattanPresident Donald Trump's threat to revoke Harvard University's tax-exempt status has sparked broader concerns about the politicization of the IRS and a potential crackdown on nonprofits. His warning followed Harvard's refusal to meet administration demands tied to federal funding, prompting a freeze of over $2.2 billion in grants. Other universities like Columbia, Cornell, and Princeton also saw funding halted, amid GOP claims that schools are failing to curb antisemitism after protests over the Israel-Hamas war.Critics see Trump's move as an attempt to use federal tax authority to punish political opponents. Legal scholars warn that using the IRS in this way echoes past abuses, such as those during Nixon's presidency. Some nonprofits have already started removing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) language from websites to avoid scrutiny, with lawyers reporting a spike in “DEI audits.” Though the IRS hasn't yet changed its enforcement patterns, reduced staffing could make it more susceptible to politicized influence.A recent executive order from Trump targeting “illegal DEI” efforts has heightened fear among nonprofits that their programs, especially those aimed at underrepresented communities, could be labeled discriminatory. Meanwhile, conservative activist Edward Blum has asked the IRS to investigate several foundations for offering race-specific grants, hoping to set a precedent against such practices. Legal experts say programs must be evaluated based on whether they exclude other races, which would likely violate federal law.Trump's Harvard Threat Raises Specter of IRS Nonprofit CrackdownIn my column for Bloomberg this week, I argue that proposals to exempt college athletes' name, image, and likeness (NIL) income from state taxes undermine one of tax policy's core principles: horizontal equity. That principle holds that taxpayers with similar incomes should be taxed similarly—something these NIL exemptions blatantly violate. While some student-athletes now earn six or seven figures, their peers working long hours in campus jobs continue to pay tax on modest earnings. Exempting high-income athletes while taxing low-wage student workers creates a two-tiered system that rewards fame and marketability, not need or effort.These exemptions aren't rooted in sound tax design—they're political moves, often motivated by the desire to curry favor with voters who are fans of college sports. But when states exempt wealthy student-athletes, they're making a value judgment: that celebrity deserves more support than everyday work. Even in states where lower-income students may owe no tax, the policy distinction is stark—exempting income to prevent poverty is not the same as exempting it to boost a football program.Rather than distorting the tax code to chase athletic prestige, I propose a fairer alternative: a progressive income exemption available to all full-time students, tied to the cost of their tuition. If a student pays $12,000 in tuition, they could exempt that amount from tax—regardless of whether their income comes from NIL deals, a job in the library, or a work-study program. This model keeps relief targeted to those bearing educational costs while avoiding regressive giveaways to already well-compensated students. The tax code should reflect fairness and support for all students—not just the most marketable ones.Student NIL Tax Breaks Would Put Splashy Recruits Above Fairness This is a public episode.

Tonight, we dive into the fiery debate between libertarian Dave Smith and conservative author Douglas Murray on the Joe Rogan Experience — an intense exchange that tackled two of the world's most controversial conflicts: the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. We break down where the two thinkers clashed, the key points they made, and what their debate reveals about the larger global narrative. Was Dave Smith right to question U.S. involvement in Ukraine? Did Douglas Murray's defense of Israel go too far? This episode is a raw, unfiltered look at foreign policy, morality, and media spin.

Many college leaders turned to civil discourse and dialogue programs in response to students protests that roiled campuses after the start of the Israel Hamas war. It's work that they have been doing for decades, but a big question around these programs is: how do we know they're working?   That question led to Raj Vinnakota, president of the Institute for Citizens and Scholars, an 80-year old non-profit that works with leaders in higher education, business and philanthropy to equip young people with the skills they need to be engaged citizens.    In 2023, the institute launched its College Presidents for Civic Preparedness initiative and its membership has grown to over 120 leaders from 2 and 4-year institutions in 35 states. Part of its mission is to develop ways to assess and measure the level of civil discourse and critical thinking on campuses.    In this interview, Raj talks with Sara Custer, editor in chief at Inside Higher Ed, about the grassroots beginnings of the program and how creating language around the concepts of free speech and open inquiry is important for engaging with stakeholders on both sides of the political divide.    This episode is sponsored by Grammarly.

Does public opinion matter in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Do leaders pay attention to the changing views of their respective constituencies? Each situation presents unique challenges for analysts and scholars trying to answer these questions. And those challenges have grown exponentially more complicated in the wake of October 7, 2023, and the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.  How have Israeli and Palestinian attitudes evolved toward their leaders and the region, one another, the United States' role, and the war?  And how do Israelis and Palestinians on all sides of the divide imagine their  future, particularly whether there's a pathway out of the ongoing crisis and any prospects for ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?   Join Aaron David Miller as he engages in conversation with Dahlia Scheindlin, a political strategist and a public opinion researcher, and Khalil Shikaki, the director of the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, two analysts and pollsters of Israeli and Palestinian politics and public opinion, on these and other issues on the next Carnegie Connects.

Since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in October 2023, Columbia University has found itself at the center of pro-Palestinian demonstrations. Columbia is no stranger to anti-war protests. In the spring of 1968, a student uprising against the Vietnam War saw students occupy five buildings on campus and hold the acting dean of Columbia College hostage. Most recently, the arrest of Columbia protest leader Mahmoud Khalil and the university's response to policy demands from the Trump administration have found the college making national headlines again. Shea Vance is the editor-in-chief of the university's student newspaper, the “Columbia Spectator.” Vance joined NY1's Errol Louis to discuss the most recent events on campus. The conversation covered the disciplinary actions against students protesting the Israel-Hamas war, as well as the ongoing atmosphere of fear among some Jewish students due to antisemitic incidents, and the impact of federal threats on withholding university funding. The discussion also included reflections on the past and future of Columbia's student activism and Vance's personal aspirations.

Terrell "G" Gonzalez returns to the Daily American and pulls back the curtains on headline stories that rarely receive proper context in mainstream media. The conversation begins with a striking revelation about the "Gulf of America" designation – not a gesture of patriotism but a calculated business move to restore American drilling rights after Biden administration restrictions left foreign countries operating in waters where US companies couldn't.From policy to the personal, the veteran shares disturbing firsthand observations from El Paso, Texas, where he's witnessed escalating violence, nightly shootings, and increased military presence. His ground-level perspective challenges simplified narratives about border security, distinguishing between legal immigration channels that remain open and enforcement challenges that create dangerous conditions for border communities.The discussion deepens when examining the Israel-Hamas conflict through the eyes of someone who's experienced similar warfare tactics. The veteran explains how fighters blend with civilian populations, creating impossible situations for opposing forces, and unpacks the complicated reality of ceasefire negotiations. Drawing parallels to his own combat experiences, he recounts being misrepresented by media after responding to a child who threw grenades at his unit – illuminating how battlefield realities often get distorted in reporting.Listen as historical context frames these modern conflicts, tracing religious and cultural tensions back to ancient divisions that continue shaping today's geopolitical landscape. This episode offers rare insight into how someone who's witnessed war firsthand interprets current events, connecting domestic policies to international affairs through personal experience rather than political talking points. What emerges is a complex picture of global challenges that defies the oversimplified narratives dominating public discourse.Send us a text A 501C3 to combat the mental health struggles which come with service to the United States Support the showInfo@dailyamericanpodcast.com

Over the weekend, the Trump administration issued calls for Iran to give up its entire nuclear program "or else." National Security Senior Advisor Mike Waltz stated, "If [Iran] had nuclear weapons, the entire Middle East would explode in an arms race." Tensions between Iran and Washington have continued to grow since Hamas and Hezbollah launched attacks on Israel over the years. General Jack Keane, retired 4-star general, the chairman of the Institute for the Study of War, and FOX News Senior Strategic Analyst, joins to discuss why Iran has never been more vulnerable, the Israel-Hamas conflict, and the war in Ukraine. In the past few weeks, Tesla cars, charging stations, and dealerships have become the targets of shootings and explosives, all in the name of denouncing Elon Musk and his involvement in DOGE. The Trump administration is taking action, with the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi warning those participating in this “wave of domestic terrorism” against Tesla properties that “the Department of Justice will put you behind bars.” Former federal prosecutor Andrew Cherkasky weighs in on the legal definition of the Tesla attacks and what constitutes domestic terror.  Plus, commentary from FOX News contributor Joe Concha.

[00:30] Israel Resumes War Against Hamas (27 minutes) The Israel-Hamas ceasefire has ended after Hamas unsurprisingly refused to follow through on its promises to release the rest of the hostages from Oct. 7, 2023. Western media is once again criticizing Israel for killing innocent civilians and relief workers, conveniently ignoring the hundreds of Hamas terrorists recently released from Israeli jail in the ceasefire agreement who have gone straight back to their terrorist activities. [27:00] ‘The Unthinkable Has Become Necessary' (28 minutes) As the trans-Atlantic alliance between Europe and the U.S. fractures, Canada is siding with Europe. International media agrees that Europe needs to militarize, believing that a rearmed and powerful Germany leading Europe will help maintain peace. However, even a cursory look at the history of the region shows that German remilitarization endangers world security.
