Miguel Ángel González Suárez te presenta el Informativo de Primera Hora en 'El Remate', el programa matinal de La Diez Capital Radio que arranca tu día con: Las noticias más relevantes de Canarias, España y el mundo, analizadas con rigor y claridad. Hoy hace 3 años: Nagorno Karabaj se rinde, anuncia su desarme y hablará con Azerbaiyán de la reintegración …y hoy hace 3 años: Junqueras insiste en que la amnistía está pactada con el PSOE y el Gobierno lo niega: "El papel dice lo que dice" Hoy se cumplen 1.674 días de guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania. 4 años y 206 días. Hoy es lunes 21 de septiembre de 2026. Día Internacional de la Paz. El 21 de septiembre se celebra el Día Internacional de la Paz, una fecha para fortalecer los ideales de paz y en el que se pide un respeto de 24 horas de no violencia y el alto el fuego. En el año 1981 la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas (ONU) promulgó el 21 de septiembre como el Día Internacional de la Paz, una fecha dedicada a conmemorar los ideales de paz de cada pueblo y cada nación, con especial énfasis en el desarrollo social y económico en diversas facetas: pobreza, hambre, salud, educación, cambio climático, igualdad de género, agua, saneamiento, electricidad, medioambiente y justicia social. Posteriormente, en el año 2001 la Asamblea General decidió designar este día internacional, cómo Jornada de No Violencia y Alto al Fuego. 1792.- La Convención declara la Revolución Francesa y la abolición de la monarquía. Tal día como hoy, 21 de septiembre de 1937, se publica por primera vez «El Hobbit» de JRR Tolkien, que sigue la búsqueda del amante del hogar Bilbo Bolsón.

El precio medio en origen del MAPA para la semana 37, en 0,321 euros por kilo, es aún peor que el ya segundo más bajo, de 0,325 en la última semana de agosto; los productores isleños están desesperados y las soluciones para recuperar valores remunerativos para el cosechero tardan en llegan tras más de dos meses.

Der Basler Autor Alain Claude Sulzer bringt uns das Theater als Lebensweise näher. Und der Zürcher Filmemacher und Schriftsteller Micha Lewinsky erzählt vom Älterwerden und davon, was bleibt, wenn jugendliche Ideale auf die Realität treffen. Ein bedeutender Regisseur und Intendant eines Berliner Thaters stirbt auf tragische Weise. Jetzt treffen sich seine früheren Mitstreiterinnen und Mitstreiter zur Trauerfeier. Alain Claude Sulzers Theaterroman erzählt im Wesentlichen die Biografien der verschiedenen Theaterleute auf dieser Feier. Der Roman überzeugt mitunter dadurch, dass der Autor sehr genau weiss, wovon er spricht, sagt SRF-Literaturredaktor Michael Luisier. Konkret heisst das, dass Alain Claude Sulzer das Theater als das beschreibt, was es tatsächlich ist: eine Lebensweise. Zürich in den 1990er-Jahren: besetzte Häuser, illegale Bars und für viele junge Leute das Gefühl, die Welt neu erfinden zu können. In seinem neuen Roman «Freunde von früher» blickt der Filmemacher und Schriftsteller Micha Lewinsky auf diese Zeit zurück und erzählt die Geschichte von Béla, der auf einmal die Chance hat, zusammen mit seinen alten WG-Kameraden, ein Haus zu kaufen. Ein unterhaltsamer Roman über das Älterwerden und vom Altern jugendlicher Ideale, meint SRF-Literaturredaktorin Jennifer Khakshouri. Buchhinweise: Alain Claude Sulzer. Szenenwechsel. 255 Seiten.

In the history of journalism, there have been a number of iconic interviews. Interviews that defined a generation and uncovered truths from some of the biggest political scandals of the time. Richard Nixon, Monica Lewinsky, the ex-Duke of York formerly known as Prince Andrew, to name only a few.Today, we bring you an interview with Nathen Mazri. Former Garfield Eats proprietor, former PPC candidate, and now, running for Toronto City Council in Ward 1 Etobicoke North. Will this interview be as era-defining as the others? His CV is likely stranger than any other candidate, and his legally distinct Garfield (called Nathfield) campaign song probably isn't going to top the charts. He only got 235 votes during the last federal election, so why does he think he has a shot at being mayor of Toronto in 2030?Is he delusional? Or is his conviction so strong that he might just do it?

//The Wire//1700Z August 11, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: DETAILS EMERGE REGARDING LAST MONTH'S SECURITY INCIDENT INVOLVING AIR FORCE ONE. MULTIPLE OIL SPILLS CONTINUE TO SPREAD AROUND PERSIAN GULF AND ARABIAN SEA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Overnight the targeting of merchant shipping continued, with both Iranian and American strikes on commercial vessels. Iran struck an oil tanker sometime over the past 24 hours, which resulted in an oil spill which washed up on the shores of Qeshm island this morning. In the Gulf of Oman, the United States struck a different merchant vessel for violating the American blockade.Analyst Comment: Similarly, a separate oil spill has continued to expand in Omani waters, after unclear circumstances (i.e. some sort of attack) led to an explosion onboard the M/T CAROLINE BEZENGI two months ago. Since that time, this vessel has been adrift until she ran aground in an Omani nature preserve. This morning Oman announced that the subsequent oil spill now covers roughly 150 square miles.Red Sea/HOA: The Houthis struck another vessel in the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait last night.Analyst Comment: Locals claim this vessel was the M/V TIHAMAH a smaller regional containership that the Houthis had suspected of carrying out weapons shipments from Saudi Arabia, to the Saudi-backed Yemeni government. If this is true, this would not be surprising, but every ship that gets struck in this Strait increases apprehension among commercial shipping companies.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Overnight, more details were released regarding the security incident affecting Air Force One during President Trump's visit to Turkey last month. At the time, a brief scandal emerged after President Trump switched from the newer Air Force One to the older airframe, due to an unidentified security incident of some kind. More specifically, the threat involved the newer Air Force One airframe allegedly not having sufficient missile defense systems, due to having been pressed into service too quickly for the appropriate countermeasures to be installed.However yesterday, more of the truth came out. President Trump actually pulled a double-switch. Instead of boarding the older legacy Air Force One, the Secret Service used a catering van to covertly move the President to an Air Force C-32A (one of the administrative backups that frequently accompanies AF1). From there, both aircraft flew to the United Kingdom (with President Trump's actual aircraft flying completely blacked out and not emitting any radio signals), where the President transitioned back to the newer Air Force 1 airframe for the trip back to the United States.Many people who are not familiar with the world of counterterrorism may think this is a super cool, James Bond-like operation that fooled those pesky journalists. However, this incident proves that a clear and present danger to the President existed, and was significant enough to warrant extreme measures. At the time, the White House claimed that the switch to a different plane was conducted out of an abundance of caution. Now, we find out that he was actually secretly switched to a third plane, and smuggled into that plane in a catering van. From the perspective of executive security, placing the principle in unorthodox situations like this to ensure security is a last-ditch method...a tactic that is utilized when the danger isreal enough to outweigh any inconvenience to the protectee. The Secret Service resorting to cramming the President in the back of a catering van is a tactic that has been used in the past, but only under extreme circumstances. Bill Clinton allegedly used this trick top avoid the press during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and Joe Biden was also suspected of having used this tactic when he had trouble climbing the AF1 staircase a few years ago. As it stands, President Trump's use of this technique is one of the first public uses for security reasons. Perhaps the most entertaining aspect to the story is that President Trump left the media on the plane that was threatened with being shot down. Most of these journalists, even in retrospect, don't seem to realize that they were they were bait.More broadly, this incident is yet another peek behind the curtain regarding the shocking levels of security that President Trump is now surrounded by. A few days ago President Trump was spotted playing golf mere feet away from an Avenger Surface-to-Air Missile defense system, which had been set up near the fairway of Trump's golf course in Bedminster while the President played a few rounds. Similarly, a few months ago, the President quietly began having Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) aircraft holding station near him at all times, just in case enemy fighter jets or cruise missiles enter the airspace.To be sure, this security is very likely necessary, but therein lies the problem: If the President now requires a SAM system to be parked mere feet away from him during an ad hoc trip that only takes a few hours...this is indicative of how serious the threats are within the homeland. Even the notoriously paranoid Vladimir Putin, who got his start in the KGB and who's bedroom in the Kremlin has been targeted (so far unsuccessfully) by Ukrainian drones, doesn't travel around with an AWACS aircraft at all times. This is also very unlikely to be a case of President Trump himself being scared, and fortifying his surroundings as his predecessor did. President Trump is not a military man, and he would not have known to ask for a SAM system, and it's highly unlikely that Trump even knows that an AWACS follows him around everywhere now.Unfortunately, all of these extremely substantial security practices are probably not an overreaction, but likely a response to legitimate and very specific threats. What's more, the security practices that we visibly observe are not the countermeasures that would be effective against the standard lone-wolf terrorist or the standard variety of screeching lunatic who might want to target the President. These countermeasures are only for countering nationstate-level threats. In Turkey, for instance, the only entities that could have targeted President Trump's plane are national-level actors. Similarly, the use of an Avenger SAM system implies that the threat might be so quick to materialize, that the standard Combat Air Patrol that is mere minutes away...might not be fast enough of a response. If any other President had been observed chipping the ball onto the green with a SAM system parked in the rough just off the fairway...the American people would be panic buying cases of water and digging a bunker in their back yard by now.But because a level of tension that surpasses the height of the Cold War has become normalized, the general population barely notices. As long as Netflix works and Doritos are on store shelves, the fact that the United States government has rapidly increased steps to prepare for major, nationstate-level attacks within the homeland will continue to go unnoticed by most.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground NomadNet: 5fa68c88be727a0e1a250a75e5e79269 Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

And here's the funny part. Almost none of it is surprising anymore. That's where we are as a country. The headlines don't even shock you.

Nanny swears up and down she's not talking about sex on this podcast... and then talks about sex on this podcast, including the infamous story of Todd's dad finding out about her sealed grand jury business through the newspaper, mid-biscuit-making. Todd grills her on giving her phone number to strangers, letting people she barely knows into her house, and whether she's ever been a woman "of the streets." Nanny holds her ground on all of it.They also dig into the Judge Ross scandal in full detail — courtroom rumors, Fox News coverage, and Nanny's very firm opinion on what should happen to her — plus a walk down memory lane to the day the whole family found out about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. Nanny opens up about growing up dirt poor, picking cotton and milking cows before school, and why she never once felt like she was missing out.To close it out, Todd launches a new recurring segment — the Todd Takedown — running real fan questions past Nanny live, covering everything from her favorite casino game to whether she really loves her grandsons more than her granddaughters.Thank you to our sponsors for supporting the show!- Boll & Branch: Get 15% OFF your first order, plus free shipping, when you use code CONFESSIONS at https://www.BollAndBranch.com/confessions!- GoodGirlRX: Visit https://www.goodgirlrx.com and use code Confessions15 to get 15% OFF at checkout!FOLLOW US ON SOCIALS:Todd Chrisley:Insta: (https://www.instagram.com/toddchrisley)Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/toddchrisley)Julie Chrisley:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/juliechrisley)Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/JulieChrisley)Chrisley Confessions 2.0:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/chrisleyconfessions2.0)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@chrisleyconfessions2.0)YouTube: (https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisleyConfessions)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Get Alison's book here direct from the publisher: https://www.project-censored.org/shop/p/judgment-of-gender   The Judgment of Gender addresses the ways in which women are centered, while simultaneously silenced, in popular culture and, all too often, maligned for simply being women. The text focuses on key areas and times where women are highlighted as “problematic,” including a generational legacy of harming women, women who speak and act out, women who occupy a space not traditionally “theirs,” women who are physically harmed for being women, and women who harm other women. Grounded in critical media literacy, the text addresses, but does not wallow in, dark and difficult topics. Rather, the text asks questions of pop culture, inviting readers to look differently, and ideally with more nuance, at how stories of celebrity and those thrust into celebrity are framed. Women and stories discussed include Anita Hill, Christine Blasey Ford, and the legacy of speaking out against sexual assault; Sinéad O'Connor, Britney Spears, and the dangers of acting out; Kathleen Hanna, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, Zoe Quinn, and the risks of occupying space not traditionally associated with women; missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (MMIWG) and the threat of violence against women for the audacity of being women; and Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, Maureen Dowd, and the harm that women perpetuate on other women. The text closes with suggestions for how to use basic concepts from critical media literacy in our roles as audiences and creators of mediated communication, operating as a lens through which one can deconstruct and talk back to the media's treatment of women.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   READ THE WEEKLY TIR NEWSLETTER HERE: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1853497   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

All eyes are on New York. The congressional primaries happen tonight, and in a city this Democratic, many of these races will effectively decide who heads to Congress. What I'm watching is a battle between Hakeem Jeffries and Zohran Mamdani. Mamdani is flexing. We're going to see exactly how much of a kingmaker he is in New York City. Jeffries is backing incumbents like Dan Goldman and Adriano Espaillat, the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Mamdani is backing candidates including Brad Lander and Darlisa Avila Chevalier. The big question is whether Mamdani's endorsements can translate into wins, especially against somebody as entrenched as Espaillat.The race that really has my attention, though, is New York's 12th Congressional District. Jerry Nadler is retiring, and what has followed is an absolute clown car of a race. Micah Lasher would be my favorite to win, but he's the least interesting candidate in the field. George Conway, once one of the chief architects of turning the Monica Lewinsky scandal into the political force that it became and later one of the most notable Never Trump Republicans in America, is running as a Democrat. Jack Schlossberg, John F. Kennedy's grandson, is also in the race. And then there's Alex Bores, a New York Assembly member who has become the main character of this contest thanks to his relationship with AI.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The polling has been all over the place. Early on, Schlossberg led thanks to the Kennedy name. More recent polling has Lasher ahead, with Bores close behind and a huge chunk of the electorate still undecided. That's important because Bores has become the center of one of the strangest political fights I've ever seen. Roughly $26 million has poured into this House race because of his support for the RAISE Act, a proposal to regulate artificial intelligence at the state level.The two major companies in artificial intelligence, OpenAI and Anthropic, have very different views on how to regulate AI. A super PAC supported by OpenAI leadership in a personal capacity spent money attacking Bores, arguing that splintered state regulations would hurt the industry. Anthropic-aligned groups responded by spending even more money. Do they support the RAISE Act? Who knows. They want OpenAI's effort to fail, and that's what makes fight this so unusual. All of this is far less about Alex Bores and more about two AI companies using a congressional primary as a venue for a much larger argument.I know politics, and I understand the influence of super PACs. I've never seen a personal beef quite like this one. Anthropic hates OpenAI, and it's not a secret. Their CEO, Dario Amodei, does not believe OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman is trustworthy. Anthropic's view is that it needs to out-innovate OpenAI and become the market leader. At the same time, I think the anti-Bores effort made strategic mistakes. The ads were so ham-fisted that they gave him life he otherwise would not have had. The spending has even become controversial inside OpenAI. And tonight's the night we find out whether any of it even mattered.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:05:34 - Jeffries vs. Mamdani00:10:04 - NY-1200:20:50 - Update00:22:00 - Keir Starmer00:26:50 - Israel00:31:35 - Congress00:34:29 - Intro to Attention Mechanism00:38:16 - Attention Mechanism with Andrew Mayne01:43:58 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

It's the first Friday of the month, which means it's time for a new book to read! This month's selection is Julia Langbein's phenomenal novel Dear Monica Lewinsky, and Julia is today's guest on the show.The book is about Jean, whose life was derailed the summer after her sophomore year in college. When she travels to France to study medieval religious history, she meets a charismatic professor and decides to pursue an affair with him. The repercussions of that choice echo through her life, and she's still haunted as an adult. When she realizes her summer abroad was the same summer the Monica Lewinsky story broke in the United States, Jean prays to Monica, asking for forgiveness. That's when a vision of Monica Lewinsky appears to Jean, and she's able to relive her summer in France. When Tom Perrotta blurbed Julia's first novel American Mermaid, he said, “It probably shouldn't work, but it succeeds brilliantly, thanks to Julia Langbein's tonal control and wicked sense of humor,” and the same can be said for Dear Monica Lewinsky. This book may be hard to describe, but it's a joy to read, and it's also a searing examination of female desire and the prices we pay to pursue it.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

TrustTalk - It's all about Trust

In this replay of a 2023 interview, Severin de Wit speaks with Economist Benjamin Ho - Professor of Economics at Vassar College and author of Why Trust Matters: An Economist's Guide to the Ties That Bind Us. What if trust isn't just a feeling, but something humans have been calculating for thousands of years? Ben Ho uses game theory to explain why we cooperate at all, why we keep promises that cost us, and why the words I am sorry almost never work the way we expect. Ben explains why an apology only repairs trust when it carries a real cost. He shares what an experiment with Uber revealed about late rides and unhappy customers, and why Bill Clinton never apologized over Monica Lewinsky - exposing the hidden trade-off between being liked and being respected. The conversation travels from early hunter-gatherer societies, where the first written records were accounting rather than poetry, to the Paris Climate Agreement - a deal built almost entirely on trust rather than enforcement. Ben makes the case that trust is the quiet infrastructure beneath markets, contracts, and treaties. Take it away, and none of it holds. [ Due to the holiday season, we are publishing this interview again. It was first published in May 2023 as episode 63]

Ashley St. Clair is all of us. Well, she might not be you. She might not even be me. Although I see some of myself in her. But she is this mess we've built. Like all of us, she has played a role in this ongoing virtual Civil War between Left and Right, played out amid tangled algorithms, giant egos, hurt feelings, and cash flow. She is the same age as my daughter, just 28 years old, but it feels like she's lived five lifetimes. She has shapeshifted from MAGA to having Elon Musk's baby, to a public fight over said baby, to throwing herself at the feet of the Left, branding herself as a one-woman confessional who will dangle all of the dirty details of “the MAGA cult” like bloody chum to hungry sharks.She is smart enough to know two things. First, the Left still controls most of our culture. If you want book deals, successful podcasts with the top-tier advertisers, or stories about you in the New York Times, or even movie deals about your life, you have to be accepted by them. And second, they won't accept you unless you bring the goods. And boy does she ever. What do you want to know, she says on her TikTok as she applies gobs of makeup she doesn't need - contour, foundation, concealer, blush, more concealer, more contour, powder. Do you want to know MAGA is a cult? Here you go. Are they racists? Oh yeah, she says, as she dabs her eyes with a powder puff.She might not realize it, but her makeup is a metaphor for the role she's playing now, a real person hiding under layers and layers of disguise. Who is she this time? She's the one talking to Jennifer Welch, the Wicked Witch of the Left:She was on with the chipper lunatic Suzanne Lambert:And Haley on the Go:And the most cringey of all was a giggly appearance with our favorite Cartier Communist, Hasan Piker. Baby Mama BluesAshley has not gone full Monica Lewinsky and claimed victimhood to excuse her role in becoming yet another baby mama for the Henry VIII of Silicon Valley, Elon Musk. She does seem to take some responsibility for agreeing to go to bed with him upon first meeting. He even asked her what name she liked. Elon was upfront about what he wanted from her, and she seemed fully on board.As a hot conservative female who already had one kid in her early 20s, her ovaries were calling Elon's name. He slid into her DMs before sliding into other places - yes, says Ashley, she joined the Mile High Club, courtesy of Elon's private jet.But one thing an influencer, however fluid in politics, must preserve is their platform. What good is having the richest man in the world's baby if you can't brag about it? Be known for it? Have instant status because of it? Not to mention the child having to wander around the planet, not being Elon's son, while everyone knows he is, like that b*****d son of Henry VIII.St. Clair is throwing around the figure of $40 million to buy her off, but she doesn't say exactly who is offering it. Musk had originally offered a deal with $15 million up front and then $100,000 per month to raise the child, money most people couldn't imagine in an entire lifetime. But that came with an NDA. She refused.Musk has said he gave her $2.5 million up front, then $500,000 per year. She has said he slashed her child support payments, causing her to sell her Tesla to cover expenses. Either way, whatever she's gotten is not enough, not in 2026 when the platform is everything. Ashley St. Clair wants more.And in that way, too, she is all of us and this grotesque online machine we've all helped build, where a person can become a star overnight, then the object of scorn, with an angry mob attempting to destroy them as the entire internet watches. She was viciously attacked as a gold digger by MAGA, then they made AI porn of her, she says, even depicting her as an underage sex object, which is why she's suing Musk.How it started, how it's goingAshley St. Clair started her career as a blonde, appearing on Fox News pushing the MAGA line:And at the Babylon Bee, making content like this:Her past warring against the transgender community means it's iffy whether or not she'll ultimately get a pass, no matter the mea culpas she's handed out like candy. This TikTok user says forget it.After all, Ashley St. Clair wrote a children's book in hopes of saving some of the young from destroying their bodies. It kind of seemed like she believed it, right?Since then, however, she has found ways to get out of it. She's thrown herself at the mercy of prominent Democrats like podcaster David Pakman:She's talked about how ignorant she was, how she fell into a cult and didn't know what she was doing. She talks about her past of being locked away and home schooled, where she was isolated from other people, before going to college and hitting the party scene, and eventually, to hear her tell it, she ended up in a cult.I know what it feels like to believe in a movement, then get chewed up and spit out, and find myself in a place where I'm telling all of the secrets of my former side, trashing them to the delight of the opposition. I know what motivates her and why she so badly needs affirmation and acceptance. But confessing her sins wouldn't be enough for people whose ultimate goal is to end Trump and MAGA forever and retake power. They need a lot more than just confirmation of their mass delusions about Trump (he's Hitler!) and MAGA (it's a cult!).No, they needed a way to deny reality yet again and cast themselves as the real winners. How could they, the most perfect people in the world, have lost to Trump? Why did half the country reject them again? It's a truth they still can't face. Lucky for them, Ashley St. Clair has gifted them with the perfect way to explain the 2024 election. It was rigged by Elon Musk. The Democrats have done everything they know how to do to destroy Donald Trump and his MAGA army. They have framed him as a Russian spy, called him a racist, a rapist, a bigot, a dictator, a fascist, Hitler, a king, and a felon. They impeached him twice, indicted him four times, and attempted to throw him off the ballot in several states. He has survived three assassination attempts so far.They've obstructed everything he has tried to do, from cleaning up the streets to closing the border to bringing manufacturing back to stopping Iran from getting a nuke. He's stood up for women who are forced to deny reality by competing against biological boys. He's stood against “gender affirming care” that destroys the bodies of children who can't consent.If Trump is for it, they are against it. They have pressured all artists to take a side against half the country, in Hollywood, in music, at the Kennedy Center. They insist that supporting him is like supporting Hitler, even if he's beating back his own right flank by standing up for Israel.And yet, for the Left, he is the only thing standing in their way and for all of us the only bulwark against total societal control. It all sounds great because it absolves the Democrats of any blame. See, they did everything right. It wasn't a coup against a sitting president running for re-election or the installation of his Vice-President without a single vote. Or that she was a terrible candidate. No, it wasn't their fault they lost. It was Elon's space lasers.Now that she has their attention, the warnings are getting more urgent, just in time to prepare for the midterms.And that is the real gift Ashley St. Clair has laid at the feet of the side she hopes will embrace her, value her, accept her, and elevate her. If she can help them win elections, whether the midterms or 2028, she can destroy both Elon Musk and MAGA. Well, how could a $40 million payout even compare?I would just offer her one word of caution as someone who came from the Left. Don't tell them what they want to hear. Tell them what you know to be true because that's what they need to hear. Confirming their mass delusion only sinks them in deeper. They don't realize it yet, but their empire is in a state of collapse, and not a moment too soon. The counterculture is rising to take its place. When that happens, Ashley St. Clair will want to be more than just a footnote hitching a ride on a sinking ship. // This is a public episode.

Regan and Chesko break down what might be the most sexist article ever written, a New York Post hit piece on Greta Thunberg with a misleading headline implying she's caught up in a Freedom Flotilla sex scandal she has nothing to do with. The article mocks her “short stint” in Israeli prison after being kidnapped, calls her the “Swedish queen of sanctimony,” fixates on her “angry” face, and reduces her entire career to one “how dare you” moment. From there, the conversation widens into the Monica Lewinsky playbook of sacrificing women to protect powerful men, misogyny on the left, and the constant pressure to soften accountability for the sake of coalition-building.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 83: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (3:00) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump has given away his labyrinthine plot to stay in office past 2028 in one social media post and he’s just crazy enough to think it will work. It is in his rant claiming the indictment of a political opponent means "The 2020 Presidential Election Should Be Permanently Wiped From The Books And Be Of No Further Force or Effect…” He is not going to try a new Constitutional Amendment or say the limit is two CONSECUTIVE terms. He's not going another coup (at least not initially). He is going to try to nullify the 2020 Election - and hold that vote again. ANOTHER 2020 Election. In 2028. If you think that's too crazy easy for him - is it crazier than Trump insisting yesterday that we are in a war against UKRAINE? Crazier than indicting the former FBI Director on a threat to kill Trump with a seashell meme? Crazier than trying to get a comedian fired for a joke about Trump’s death and his wife when TRUMP then goes out and makes a joke about his death and his wife and all America is talking about is the dreaded D-word? Crazier than indicting a man for trying to shoot him at the Correspondents’ Dinner when it is now unmistakably clear that the suspect never fired a shot and was never on the same floor as Trump was? Crazier than Trump's insistence that we should pay for this damn ballroom because it'll protect presidents? What - are they sealing themselves in like Saddam Hussein in his Hidey Hole? And then I'll detail Trump’s bid to MATA: Make America 2020 Again. B-Block (36:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Two competing Bari Weiss entries because while nobody's watching her version of the CBS Evening News, everybody seems to have seen her prized reporter Olivia Reingold making a fool of herself on video from the Correspondents' Dinner. And speaking of that, Stephen A. Smith came out of that experience knowing who is to blame for all America's problems: those evil liberals! Whose presidential nomination he expects to win. ESPN has a choice: platform a political idiot and Conservative tool and destroy your franchise, or get rid of him and keep it. C-Block (55:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I often wonder WHY I ever became a political commentator. It wasn't planned and it wasn't supposed to be permanent. And the story of HOW I became a political commentator is even crazier.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this solo episode of V the People, Veronica Bocian unpacks a week of culture, conversation, and contradictions. From Lena Dunham's re-emergence and Monica Lewinsky's long-overdue comeback to the latest Summer House chaos, Veronica explores how public narratives are shaped—and reshaped—over time. She reflects on the stark differences in how women and powerful men are treated in the spotlight, and why certain stories hit differently now. She also introduces her Lesbian Culture Moment, diving into the assumptions people still make about roles in same-sex relationships, and why those boxes don't hold up. In Politics, But Make It Make Sense, she breaks down a tense exchange between Donald Trump and journalist Norah O'Donnell, translating what's really happening when accountability is met with deflection. Plus, a look at Netflix's Untold: The Shooting at Hawthorne Hill raises difficult questions about bias, mental health, and accountability—and in Something We Don't Talk About Enough, Veronica gets honest about the TikTok body comparison spiral and the gap between how we see ourselves and others. It's a thoughtful, candid episode about perception, power, and learning to question what we think we know.

The death of Vince Foster is one of the most controversial and debated cases in modern political history. Official reports ruled SELF-inflicted—but decades later, questions still surround what really happened inside the Bill Clinton White House. Was this simply a personal tragedy… or something far worse? With connections to Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, and a growing web of political tension, some believe Vince Foster may have known sensitive information that never reached the public. From eyewitness inconsistencies to allegations of mishandled evidence, this case has fueled decades of speculation. And for some, the questions don't stop in the 1990s—raising theories about powerful networks and whether threads from this case could connect to figures like Jeffrey Epstein and the broader world of elite secrecy. What did Vince Foster know? Was everything truly investigated—or carefully controlled?

***Apologies for the lack of voice. Robin is sick and has lost itThis week we're taking a detour from the usual political hellscape to cover something that is, underneath the celebrity packaging, the exact same story: who gets protected, who gets discarded, and how the machine that hands powerful men unlimited second acts is the same machine running everything else we cover on this show.Shia LaBeouf is thirty-nine years old and currently facing three counts of simple battery in New Orleans, including allegedly punching a bartender, dislocating someone's nose, and headbutting a third person while shirtless during a four-day Mardi Gras bar crawl. His attorney's defense was "frankly, being drunk on Mardi Gras is not a crime." That's the legal strategy.Simultaneously, FKA Twigs (the Grammy-nominated artist Tahliah Barnett) has filed a new lawsuit arguing that the NDA inside her 2025 sexual battery settlement with LaBeouf is illegal under California's STAND Act, and that after she said publicly she didn't feel safe, LaBeouf secretly filed arbitration proceedings to extract money from her for saying it. She hired Mathew Rosengart (the attorney who freed Britney Spears) and she is not seeking money. She is seeking the legal right to describe her own life.This episode: the full legal timeline from 2005 to 2026, the Mia Goth relationship from the 2012 set of Nymphomaniac to the 2024 Pasadena 911 call, to the method acting culture that celebrates self-harm and calls it genius, the Honey Boy credit, the Catholic conversion with full ambivalence, and the redemption arc as a structure that serves perpetrators more reliably than survivors.Plus: why this episode exists, and why the same system protecting Shia LaBeouf is the same one that fired Megan Fox for comparing Michael Bay to Hitler, buried Tig Notaro for being right about Louis C.K. too early, and made Monica Lewinsky the punchline of a generation while the president who was actually in the room got two hundred thousand dollars a speech.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-crime-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 55: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: So would you like to collapse the Trump Regime? Today? Peacefully? Legally? You - the White House press corps. It only takes one of you. You go into the next Oval Office Scrum, and you ask him politely for his explanation of something released by his administration, by Pam Bondi’s office, on the government website, and you read – quoting this FBI 302 interview file: “Maxwell presented (her) to Trump…by the things Maxwell said, it was clear that (she) was available…”And don’t stop reading and don’t make eye contact. THEN from the sworn affidavit, reed, quote: “I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling the plaintiff that she couldn’t ever say anything, if she didn’t want to disappear like the 12-year old female (redacted) and that he was capable of having her whole family killed…” Quote: “the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein... under penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger” unquote, what SIR is your explanation SIR about when you threatened this girl’s life, sir. Just keep asking. Don't make eye contact, don't stop, don't stop talking when he starts talking. Just reel off those quotes. And the one about becoming fertilizer. And the "Calendar Girls" story (as nonsensical as that probably is). And all the others. Because we don't always see the escape hatch when it appears before us, and it just appeared. Because the Epstein Files are part of an official Department of Justice Document Dump. Their contents are Pam Bondi's problem, not you or your lawyer's. And if you don't bear down and do this job as it was designed by the Founding Fathers, you will sooner or later face one of these outcomes: you'll be arrested, you'll be replaced by some automaton Bari Weiss likes, or the country will survive and the next people running media will never consider you for work because you were cowardly when we needed your courage. Oh and you can peacefully, legally end the careers of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio and Bari Weiss and lots of others. The material is all in front of you. Just have the courage to pick it up and fling it, like he'd fling his poo at you. ALSO: Don Lemon was arrested not because Jesus but because Trump has always hated him. And if you've forgotten, I explained two weeks ago why Trump was trying to restart the 2020 crap, now sending Tulsi Gabbard to Georgia. They're sitting up not a claim that the election was fixed, but that the election was fixed by another country (hey, Nicolas Maduro, you mind taking the rap, in exchange for a pardon?) and there is no statute of limitations on THAT. B-Block (34:55) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Harriet Hageman, the blob they elected to the House from Wyoming to replace Liz Cheney, is now running for Senate. Emphasize "running": she has fled a town hill. The Bill Maher Pretzel Logic: Celebrities should shut up, voters don't listen to TV and movie stars. But Bill, you expect them to listen to you. So you're saying you're not a star? And the latest Bari Weiss firing target is supposedly Face The Nation host Margaret Brennan and one of the names being thrown around (probably nonsensically) is Matt Lauer. C-Block (54:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: We need a doubleheader. I heard an audio book with a famous actor doing Thurber's tribute to what would be called Dunning-Kruger Syndrome: "The Macbeth Murder Mystery" and it was one of those rare times when I actually said "No - I did this better." So I bring it to you, and as a bonus, a second great unheralded Thurber story: "Meet Birdey Doggett." Enjoy them at your leisure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
