Podcasts about Lower

This podcast is all about the last 4 hours of your day, everyday.   There is so much focus on morning routines. What time you wake up, what you drink, what you journal, what workout you do, what affirmation you say.   But the truth is, your day doesn't start in the morning.  Your day starts the night before.   Most of us begin the day with good energy, good intentions, and some level of clarity. But by the end of the day, we are tired. We are mentally full. We have made hundreds of decisions. We don't have the same motivation, discipline, or emotional capacity.   And that is exactly why the last four hours matter so much.   If there is no system for the end of your day, you default to your phone, wandering around, tinkering in the kitchen, the noise, the chaos, the scrolling, and this low level stress that never really shuts off.   What if instead, you had a plan for the last four hours of your day.   The way you end your day determines how you sleep. How you sleep determines how you wake up. How you wake up determines how you show up. And how you show up determines the quality of your life.   This episode is about designing the last four hours of your day so your life feels calmer, your mornings feel clearer, your relationships feel more connected, and your body and mind actually get the recovery they need.   We are going to walk through how to build a simple last four hours plan, what it should include, and how to follow it even when you're exhausted.   Because stress is not just emotional. It's biological. And protecting your peace is not optional. It's foundational.   So let's talk about how to intentionally design the last four hours of your day and why it might be the most powerful life upgrade you haven't made yet.   Not a productivity plan. Not a hustle harder plan.   A life design plan.   A plan that supports high quality sleep. A plan that prepares tomorrow before it gets here. A plan that builds connection instead of distance. A plan that helps your nervous system come down. A plan that lets you clock out from output and clock into recovery.   Jesse Itzler says that your morning self is counting on your evening self. And I love that because it's true. Your tired self should not be running your life. Your intentional self should be protecting your future self.     ***Why the Last Four Hours Matter   • Energy and willpower are lowest at the end of the day • Without a plan, we drift • Drifting usually leads to scrolling, snacking, low level anxiety, and unfinished mental loops • The last four hours directly affect ◦ Sleep quality ◦ Emotional regulation ◦ Relationship connection ◦ How you wake up • When evenings are chaotic, mornings are reactive • When evenings are intentional, mornings are peaceful     ***The Reframe: This Is Not About Doing More   • This is not about squeezing productivity out of every minute • This is about clocking out from output and shifting into recovery • The last four hours are for ◦ Decompression ◦ Nervous system regulation ◦ Reflection ◦ Connection ◦ Preparation • Jesse Itzler teaches that planning the next day at night removes decision fatigue from the morning • Your tired self should not be making big life decisions • Your clear evening self should be protecting your future self     ***The Core Pillars of a Powerful Last Four Hours   -Preparation for Tomorrow   • Write down tomorrow's plan • Appointments, priorities, and non negotiables • Identify your top three outcomes for the next day • Decide what "a win" looks like before you go to sleep • Lay out clothes, bags, or materials when possible • Jesse Itzler's core idea: when you wake up, you should already know exactly what you're stepping into     -Body and Mind Recovery   • High quality sleep starts long before your head hits the pillow • Evenings should signal safety and shutdown to the nervous system • Examples ◦ Hot bath or shower ◦ Stretching or gentle movement ◦ Skincare or body care rituals ◦ Reading instead of scrolling ◦ Breathwork or prayer • This is where longevity, hormones, mood, and mental clarity are built • Stress is not just emotional. It is biological     -Connection and Presence   • The last four hours are prime time for relationships • Conversation without devices • Time with your kids, partner, or yourself • Unpacking the day • Celebrating wins • Laughing • Being seen and seeing others • This is where emotional safety and closeness are built     -Light Closure and Organization   • Small resets prevent big overwhelm • Ten minutes a night beats weekend purges • Examples ◦ Resetting the kitchen ◦ Tidying a room ◦ Prepping coffee ◦ Organizing a bag • Order in your environment creates order in your mind • You are either setting tomorrow up or stealing from it       ***How to Stay Consistent When You're Tired   • You will not always feel motivated • That is why you need a written plan • The plan becomes your autopilot • On hard nights ◦ Lower the bar, do not quit ◦ Shorten the routine ◦ Protect sleep first ◦ Still plan tomorrow • Consistency beats intensity • Repetition turns effort into identity   It's time to make your list!!   Remember…  ◦ The last four hours are not throwaway time ◦ They are design time ◦ They are recovery time ◦ They are relationship time ◦ They are future building time   It's such a powerful way to enjoy more fulfillment & joy in your life.   CHEERS to your best 4 hours of the day, everyday! 

Thinking Above the Lower Mind with David Hanscom David Hanscom, M.D. is author of, Back in Control: A Surgeon's Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain and Do You Really Need Spine Surgery?: Take Control with a Spine Surgeon's Advice. Dr. Hanscom is an orthopedic complex spinal deformity surgeon who quit his surgical practice in 2019 to focus on teaching people how to break loose from the grip of chronic mental and physical pain – with and without surgery. His insights arose out of escaping from his own 15-year ordeal of suffering with severe chronic pain. As he began to share his approaches with his patients, a predictable sequence of learning evolved. It is reflected in the self-directed action plan that he created, The DOC (Direct your Own Care) Journey. His website is backincontrol.com. David explains how mental and physical pain are not separate. He suggests ways to detach from the ego – that he says are a set of cognitive distortions – to heal from unwanted thoughts, reactivity, and anxiety in the mind and calm the physiology of the body.

Blood sugar issues are not caused by sugar alone. In this episode, Ben Azadi explains how mineral deficiencies are a hidden driver behind insulin resistance, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes. You'll learn the five essential minerals your body needs to regulate blood sugar, improve insulin sensitivity, and support long-term metabolic health. This episode breaks down why medication-focused approaches often miss the root cause and how restoring mineral balance can lead to better glucose control, energy, cravings, and fat loss. What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy blood sugar problems are more about mineral deficiency than carbohydratesHow insulin signaling depends on proper mineral availabilityThe connection between gut health and blood sugar spikesWhy modern soil depletion contributes to widespread mineral deficienciesHow minerals act as the communication system of metabolism The 5 Minerals That Help Lower Blood Sugar Fulvic AcidSupports mineral absorption at the cellular level. Improves insulin receptor sensitivity, glucose transport into muscles, pancreatic health, and mitochondrial energy production. Humic AcidSupports gut health by reducing inflammation, improving microbiome balance, and slowing carbohydrate absorption to flatten blood sugar spikes. Trace MineralsChromium, zinc, selenium, and manganese help activate insulin signaling pathways, support insulin production, and reduce insulin resistance. MagnesiumOne of the most commonly deficient minerals in people with insulin resistance. Supports insulin sensitivity, lowers cortisol, reduces cravings, and stabilizes blood sugar. PotassiumAn insulin-sparing electrolyte that improves glucose storage in muscles, balances sodium, lowers cortisol, and reduces insulin overproduction.

This bonus episode features Caeli Ridge from Ridge Lending Group, breaking down what's happening right now with DSCR loans and why they're getting so much attention from rental property investors.Caeli explains how DSCR loan rates have been coming down and are now very close to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac rates. We talk about why DSCR loans are often simpler than conventional mortgages, how they qualify based on the deal instead of the investor's personal income, and why that makes them especially attractive for investors.We also discuss how increased competition from DSCR lenders has pushed Fannie and Freddie to lower their down payment requirements. Single-family rental properties now require as little as 15 percent down. Caeli also walks through the documentation needed for conventional loans and what credit scores lenders are looking for.Listen in on a coaching call with Caeli and a client:  https://rentalincomepodcast.com/bonus-tinaContact Caeli:Websiteinfo@ridgelendinggroup.com1-855-747-4343

High blood pressure is the number one risk factor for deaths globally. But what if your blood pressure numbers were only part of that story? In this episode, we're joined by leading cardiologist Dr Sanjay Gupta, who explains why blood pressure is not a disease, but often a scream for help. Together with ZOE's Chief Scientist, Professor Sarah Berry, he explores when blood pressure is a harmless response to stress, food, or movement, and when it signals real, long-term damage. You'll learn why blood pressure targets aren't universal, why worrying can make things worse, and why quality of life matters as much as numbers. This episode also breaks down what you can do to lower your blood pressure. Not quick fixes. Not pills. But everyday lifestyle changes that address the root cause. If your blood pressure is your body sending a message, what might it be asking you to change? Unwrap the truth about your food

What makes an investment "good?" It seems like a straightforward question, but the answer is more subjective than most people realize.  Recently, my wife asked why I thought real estate was such a BAD investment when others she knows call it the BEST they've ever made.  Hearing it framed that way struck a different chord. And rather than quickly defending my position with data and facts, I found myself reconsidering the question entirely. In today's episode, I share how to evaluate investments in the real world, what separates good investments from bad ones, and why some popular metrics can mislead. If you've ever wondered why an investment looks great paper but doesn't feel right—or why others swear by strategies you'd never touch—this episode will give you a clearer framework for thinking about your own portfolio. ***

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are common, often misunderstood, and increasingly encountered in pediatric emergency care. These events closely resemble epileptic seizures but arise from abnormal brain network functioning rather than epileptiform activity. In this episode of PEM Currents, we review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical features of PNES in children and adolescents, with a practical focus on Emergency Department recognition, diagnostic strategy, and management. Particular emphasis is placed on seizure semiology, avoiding iatrogenic harm, communicating the diagnosis compassionately, and understanding how early identification and referral to cognitive behavioral therapy can dramatically improve long-term outcomes. Learning Objectives Identify key epidemiologic trends, risk factors, and semiological features that help differentiate psychogenic nonepileptic seizures from epileptic seizures in pediatric patients presenting to the Emergency Department. Apply an evidence-based Emergency Department approach to the evaluation and initial management of suspected PNES, including strategies to avoid unnecessary escalation of care and medication exposure. Demonstrate effective, patient- and family-centered communication techniques for explaining the diagnosis of PNES and facilitating timely referral to appropriate outpatient therapy.

Welcome to PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast. As always, I'm your host, Brad Sobolewski, and today we are talking about psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES. Now, this is a diagnosis that often creates a lot of uncertainty in the Emergency Department. These episodes can be very scary for families and caregivers and schools. And if we mishandle the diagnosis, it can lead to unnecessary testing, medication exposure, ICU admissions, and long-term harm. This episode's gonna focus on how to recognize PNES in pediatric patients, how we make the diagnosis, what the evidence says about management and outcomes, and how what we do and what we say in the Emergency Department directly affects patients, families, and prognosis. Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures are paroxysmal events that resemble epileptic seizures but occur without epileptiform EEG activity. They're now best understood as a subtype of functional neurological symptom disorder, specifically functional or dissociative seizures. Historically, these events were commonly referred to as pseudo-seizures, and that term still comes up frequently in the ED, in documentation, and sometimes from families themselves. The problem is that pseudo implies false, fake, or voluntary, and that implication is incorrect and harmful. These episodes are real, involuntary, and distressing, even though they're not epileptic. Preferred terminology includes psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES, functional seizures, or dissociative seizures. And PNES is not a diagnosis of exclusion, and it does not require identification of psychological trauma or psychiatric disease. The diagnosis is based on positive clinical features, ideally supported by video-EEG, and management begins with clear, compassionate communication. The overall incidence of PNES shows a clear increase over time, particularly from the late 1990s through the mid-2010s. This probably reflects improved recognition and access to diagnostic services, though a true increase in occurrence can't be excluded. Comorbidity with epilepsy is really common and clinically important. Fourteen to forty-six percent of pediatric patients with PNES also have epilepsy, which frequently complicates diagnosis and contributes to diagnostic delay. Teenagers account for the highest proportion of patients with PNES, especially 15- to 19-year-olds. Surprisingly, kids under six are about one fourth of all cases, so it's not just teenagers. We often make the diagnosis of PNES in epilepsy monitoring units. So among children undergoing video-EEG, about 15 to 19 percent may ultimately be diagnosed with PNES. And paroxysmal non-epileptic events in tertiary epilepsy monitoring units account for about 15 percent of all monitored patients. Okay, but what is PNES? Well, it's best understood as a disorder of abnormal brain network functioning. It's not structural disease. The core mechanisms at play include altered attention and expectation, impaired integration of motor control and awareness, and dissociation during events. So the patients are not necessarily aware that this is happening. Psychological and psychosocial features are common but not required for diagnosis and may be less prevalent in pediatric populations as compared with adults. So PNES is a brain-based disorder. It's not conscious behavior, it's not malingering, and it's not under voluntary control. Children and adolescents with PNES have much higher rates of psychiatric comorbidities and psychosocial stressors compared to both healthy controls and children with epilepsy alone. Psychiatric disorders are present in about 40 percent of pediatric PNES patients, both before and after the diagnosis. Anxiety is seen in 58 percent, depression in 31 percent, and ADHD in 35 percent. Compared to kids with epilepsy, the risk of psychiatric disorders in PNES is nearly double. Compared to healthy controls, it is up to eight times higher. And there's a distinct somatopsychiatric profile that strongly predicts diagnosis of PNES. This includes multiple medical complaints, psychiatric symptoms, high anxiety sensitivity, and solitary emotional coping. This profile, if you've got all four of them, carries an odds ratio of 15 for PNES. Comorbid epilepsy occurs in 14 to 23 percent of pediatric PNES cases, and it's associated with intellectual disability and prolonged diagnostic delay. And finally, across all demographic strata, anxiety is the most consistent predictor of PNES. Making the diagnosis is really hard. It really depends on a careful history and detailed analysis of the events. There's no single feature that helps us make the diagnosis. So some of the features of the spells or events that have high specificity for PNES include long duration, so typically greater than three minutes, fluctuating or asynchronous limb movements, pelvic thrusting or side-to-side head movements, ictal eye closure, often with resisted eyelid opening, ictal crying or vocalization, recall of ictal events, and rare association with injury. Younger children often present with unresponsiveness. Adolescents more commonly demonstrate prominent motor symptoms. In pediatric cohorts, we most frequently see rhythmic motor activity in about 27 percent, and complex motor movements and dialeptic events in approximately 18 percent each. Features that argue against PNES include sustained cyanosis with hypoxia, true lateral tongue biting, stereotyped events that are identical each time, clear postictal confusion or lethargy, and obviously epileptic EEG changes during the events themselves. Now there are some additional historical and contextual clues that can help us make the diagnosis as well. If the events occur in the presence of others, if they occur during stressful situations, if there are psychosocial stressors or trauma history, a lack of response to antiepileptic drugs, or the absence of postictal confusion, this may suggest PNES. Lower socioeconomic status, Medicaid insurance, homelessness, and substance use are also associated with PNES risk. While some of these features increase suspicion, again, video-EEG remains the diagnostic gold standard. We do not have video-EEG in the ED. But during monitoring, typical events are ideally captured and epileptiform activity is not seen on the EEG recording. Video-EEG is not feasible for every single diagnosis. You can make a probable PNES diagnosis with a very accurate clinical history, a vivid description of the signs and appearance of the events, and reassuring interictal EEG findings. Normal labs and normal imaging do not make the diagnosis. Psychiatric comorbidities are not required. The diagnosis, again, rests on positive clinical features. If the patient can't be placed on video-EEG in a monitoring unit, and if they have an EEG in between events and it's normal, that can be supportive as well. So what if you have a patient with PNES in the Emergency Department? Step one, stabilize airway, breathing, circulation. Take care of the patient in front of you and keep them safe. Use seizure pads and precautions and keep them from falling off the bed or accidentally injuring themselves. A family member or another team member can help with this. Avoid reflexively escalating. If you are witnessing a PNES event in front of you, and if they're protecting their airway, oxygenating, and hemodynamically stable, avoid repeated benzodiazepines. Avoid intubating them unless clearly indicated, and avoid reflexively loading them with antiseizure medications such as levetiracetam or valproic acid. Take a focused history. You've gotta find out if they have a prior epilepsy diagnosis. Have they had EEGs before? What triggered today's event? Do they have a psychiatric history? Does the patient have school stressors or family conflict? And then is there any recent illness or injury? Only order labs and imaging when clinically indicated. EEG is not widely available in the Emergency Department. We definitely shouldn't say things like, “this isn't a real seizure,” or use outdated terms like pseudo-seizure. Don't say it's all psychological, and please do not imply that the patient is faking. If you see a patient and you think it's PNES, you're smart, you're probably right, but don't promise diagnostic certainty at first presentation. Remember, a sizable proportion of these patients actually do have epilepsy, and referring them to neurology and getting definitive testing can really help clarify the diagnosis. Communication errors, especially early on, worsen outcomes. One of the most difficult things is actually explaining what's going on to families and caregivers. So here's a suggestion. You could say something like: “What your child is experiencing looks like a seizure, but it's not caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Instead, it's what we call a functional seizure, where the brain temporarily loses control of movement and awareness. These episodes are real and involuntary. The good news is that this condition is treatable, especially when we address it early.” The core treatment of PNES is CBT-based psychotherapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy. That's the standard of care. Typical treatment involves 12 to 14 sessions focused on identifying triggers, modifying maladaptive cognitions, and building coping strategies. Almost two thirds of patients achieve full remission with treatment. About a quarter achieve partial remission. Combined improvement rates reach up to 90 percent at 12 months. Additional issues that neurologists, psychologists, and psychiatrists often face include safe tapering of antiseizure medications when epilepsy has been excluded, treatment of comorbid anxiety or depression, coordinating care between neurology and mental health professionals, and providing education for schools on event management. Schools often witness these events and call prehospital professionals who want to keep patients safe. Benzodiazepines are sometimes given, exposing patients to additional risk. This requires health system-level and outpatient collaboration. Overall, early diagnosis and treatment of PNES is critical. Connection to counseling within one month of diagnosis is the strongest predictor of remission. PNES duration longer than 12 months before treatment significantly reduces the likelihood of remission. Video-EEG confirmation alone does not predict positive outcomes. Not every patient needs admission to a video-EEG unit. Quality of communication and speed of treatment, especially CBT-based therapy, matter the most. Overall, the prognosis for most patients with PNES is actually quite favorable. There are sustained reductions in events along with improvements in mental health comorbidities. Quality of life and psychosocial functioning improve, and patients use healthcare services less frequently. So here are some take-home points about psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES. Pseudo-seizure and similar terms are outdated and misleading. Do not use them. PNES are real, involuntary, brain-based events. Diagnosis relies on positive clinical features, what the events look like and when they happen, not normal lab tests or CT scans. Early recognition and diagnosis, and rapid referral to cognitive behavioral therapy, change patients' lives. If you suspect PNES, get neurology and mental health professionals involved as soon as possible. Alright, that's all I've got for this episode. I hope you found it educational. Having seen these events many times over the years, I recognize how scary they can be for families, schools, and our prehospital colleagues. It's up to us to think in advance about how we're going to talk to patients and families and develop strategies to help children who are suffering from PNES events. If you've got feedback about this episode, send it my way. Likewise, like, rate, and review, as my teenagers would say, and share this episode with a colleague if you think it would be beneficial.

Klaus Peterson is a founding partner at Apera Asset Management, based in Munich. Apera is a lower mid-market private debt investor that provides financing solutions to European SMEs and asset management services to investors. Apera focuses on the DACH region, the United Kingdom, the Nordic countries, France and Benelux.Apera is part of Franklin Templeton a global investment management organization with $1.5 trillion assets under management. Our conversation starts with Klaus's journey into finance and his early start as a lawyer, before he finally discovered private credit via a route of private equity. We then turn to the focus on Apera's business, which is in the lower middle market and stress the difference between this size of issuer and the larger issuers which tend to occupy private credit headlines. We move through some case studies - the good, the bad and the ugly - and Klaus shares how he learned to focus on the detail, to kick the tires, and emphasizes the importance of understanding investments and questioning assumptions, sharing a lesson learned from a printing business investment.We discuss some of the challenges facing private credit as it continues to grow in size, and then focus in particular on the German market, examining the risk profile of most institutional investors and their expectations when it comes to their credit portfolioslOverall, this is a unique deep dive into a niche area of credit investing that is often overlooked in the sweeping generalizations made about the mainstream credit markets. This podcast is kindly sponsored by Evanston Capital and Alvine Capital.

Some stories refuse to rest.High above the Severn plain, within the red-stone walls of Powis Castle, a presence once walked the corridors by candlelight — not to terrify, not to threaten… but to finish something left undone.In this episode of Time Between Times, we step quietly into the shadows of an eighteenth-century Welsh castle, where an old woman, a hidden chest, and a ghost clad in gold lace cross paths in the stillness of night. It is a tale of silence and listening, of trust placed in the dark, and of a spirit bound not by malice — but by duty.This is a story that lives in the spaces between — between rooms, between centuries, between the living and the dead.So draw closer.Lower your voice.And walk with me…into the time between times.

In this episode, Ben Azadi shares a surprising 30-day experiment where he ate a small amount of raw honey before bed and tracked its effects on sleep, stress, cravings, energy, and fat loss. Ben explains how chronic low-carb dieting, fasting, or undereating carbohydrates at night can elevate cortisol, disrupt sleep, and stall fat loss, especially for people over 40. He breaks down why raw honey is metabolically different from sugar, highlighting its enzymes, polyphenols, antioxidants, and lower insulin response shown in human studies. You'll learn how low nighttime liver glycogen can trigger cortisol spikes and middle-of-the-night wake-ups, and how a teaspoon to tablespoon of raw honey before bed may support liver glycogen, reduce stress hormones, improve REM and deep sleep, and stabilize mood and energy. Ben shares his exact protocol, week-by-week results, who should avoid or modify this approach, how to choose high-quality raw honey, and whether this strategy affects ketosis. He also answers common questions about insulin, inflammation, fructose, melatonin, and long-term use. This episode reframes honey not as a sugar problem, but as a strategic metabolic tool to improve sleep, reduce stress, and support overall metabolic health.

What if eating the right vegetables could make exercise feel easier while simultaneously lowering your blood pressure? In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, host Chuck Carroll is joined by metabolic health expert Cyrus Khambatta of Evolution Health to break down the science behind nitrate-rich vegetables and how they dramatically improve blood flow, oxygen delivery, endurance, and recovery. You'll learn how nitrates convert into nitric oxide, why foods like beets, arugula, spinach, and celery outperform supplements, and how simple dietary changes can enhance athletic performance — even if you're not an athlete. We also clear up confusion about nitrates in processed meats, explain why mouthwash can block benefits, and reveal the ideal timing and amounts for maximum results. In this episode, you'll discover: • How nitrates lower blood pressure naturally • Why nitric oxide improves endurance & oxygen efficiency • The best nitrate-rich vegetables to eat daily • How nitrates support mitochondria & cellular energy • When and how much to eat for exercise performance • Why nitrates from vegetables ≠ nitrates from deli meats

After decades of filing taxes together, most couples assume their retirement plan will continue largely unchanged if one spouse passes away. But for many surviving spouses, the first surprise is a higher tax bill, even when income hasn't changed much. In this episode, I explain how a feature of the tax code can increase taxes after the loss of a spouse. Using a real-world example, I show why tax brackets shrink, why retirement income often doesn't, and how that mismatch can quietly drive taxes higher over time. More importantly, I share a planning framework couples can use while both spouses are still alive. We'll cover common mistakes, why the "married window" matters, and how small, intentional decisions made years in advance can meaningfully protect the surviving spouse. This isn't about fear or worst-case scenarios—it's about avoiding unnecessary surprises and making thoughtful, proactive decisions that support confidence throughout retirement. ***

Today, we start by looking at the way Indiana built a program that seemingly came out of nowhere to win the National Title. It wasn't an accident and you can build yourself in the same way. And that process starts now. We'll look at micro gains and goals and how they stack up over time. We look at long term consistency vs. short term bursts and why the former is always better. We talk about just "knowing" when you're getting better vs. depending on numbers. We look at aiming low and getting things done vs. always wanting to see improvement.

Why would the EU destroy it's own energy policy?  “Why would Europe agree to be ‘net-zero' in 2030, when they don't make a battery,” he asked.  Thus, the pragmatic realism of policy intersects with the hypocritical action and creates an outcome that no one can explain.  “So, if they go 2030, they are intentionally deciding to be subservient to China who makes the batteries,” he continued.  This makes absolutely no sense.

Growing allegations that the Islamic Republic of Iran may have used chemical agents against protesters have intensified scrutiny of the regime's most recent crackdown, described by observers as the deadliest suppression of public dissent in the country's modern history. The claims gained momentum following the circulation of footage from Sabzevar showing Iranian security forces equipped with protective gear typically associated with hazardous chemical environments, as well as testimony from protesters in Tehran describing prolonged and unusual medical symptoms after exposure to what authorities labeled “tear gas.” Video at Iran So Far Away.     source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/GBNT1952/status/2013441161247998050?s=20 This is how states demonstrate commitment along a shared line of effort without firing a shot: visible logistics, presence, and implied backing that complicate an opponent's decision cycle. This is also why the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group is on the way to the Middle East as we speak. From a doctrinal standpoint, this kind of move deliberately raises the escalation ladder, forcing US planners to account not just for Iranian responses, but for second and third order effects involving a near peer competitor. That reality likely explains why President Trump has avoided striking Iranian targets, because any kinetic action now risks collapsing the problem set from a regional contingency into a multi theater confrontation. In simple terms, Iran stops being a standalone target and becomes part of a larger system tied to Chinese interests, and no serious commander ignores force posture, alliance signaling, and deterrence dynamics when weighing an OPLAN. China obviously understands this, which is precisely why these moves matter: they restrict American freedom of action by design, without ever needing to engage directly. Thus the Iran problem becomes even more complex.

WASHINGTON DC – President Trump has expanded the mission of his proposed Gaza Board of Peace into a global body that would take on the role mediating conflicts currently held by the United Nations and carry a $1 billion fee for a permanent seat, according to a charter sent to prospective members. “It's hard not to read this as an attempt to establish a precedent in Gaza that could be used elsewhere in terms of saying that Trump is going to be calling the global shots here, and you either fall in line or you're not part of the process,” said Julien Barnes-Dacey, director of the Middle East and North Africa program at the European Council on Foreign Relations. (read more) Figured that out all on their own, did they?

The largely peaceful protests intensified after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency officer shot and killed Reneé Good, a Minneapolis mother, after an encounter. “If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of ICE who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT,” Trump wrote last Thursday morning on Truth Social, adding that the move would “quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great state.” He has already alerted 1,500 troops in Alaska for possible deployment to Minnesota. If he does it, the action will certainly face legal challenges. Occasional acts of violence do not an insurrection make. But don't bet on the Supreme Court to block Trump from invoking the law. Before this court, the bottom line is that Trump usually wins.   Americans have been traditionally uncomfortable with the use of the military for domestic law enforcement. Granted, the law gives the president power to deploy troops in an emergency. Trump tried it with the National Guard in Chicago but was shot down by the Supreme Court because of the statutory requirement of showing that “regular forces,” namely the military, would not be effective in executing the law.  Does Trump see the deployment of the military in Minnesota as a dress rehearsal for the armed forces policing key polling places to intimidate voters and seize voting machines? A slippery slope is always dangerous, and a slippery slope from a fragile democracy to a malignant authoritarianism is a real red flag for all of us.
