Twenty-five years after September 11th, Guantánamo Bay is still open. Fifteen men are still held there. Six have never been charged with anything at all. And on August 26, 2026, a military judge finally set a trial date for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and three co-defendants: June 5, 2028, nearly 27 years after the attacks. In the first episode of Immigrantly's three-part 9/11 at 25 series, Saadia Khan sits down with Shayana Kadidal, Senior Managing Attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights, who has litigated Guantánamo cases since 2002. He filed the first habeas petition on behalf of detainees when no one in Washington would carry the papers to the courthouse. He was one of the first lawyers allowed onto the base. This conversation covers what actually built Guantánamo and what has kept it standing through four presidencies: • Why the first people held at Guantánamo were not Muslims, but Black Haitian refugees intercepted at sea in 1991• How the U.S. filled the prison using leaflets and $5,000 bounties, not battlefield capture• The domestic sweeps of South Asian and Arab Muslim men, held in secret immigration hearings with their names erased from the public docket• Mohammed al-Qahtani, a schizophrenic man held roughly two decades, much of it in solitary confinement, and Abu Zubaydah, the first man waterboarded, still never charged• Guled Duran, cleared for release by six agencies, whose habeas petition has sat with a judge for a decade• Why the torture evidence argument is not the reason these cases never went to trial• And what it means that the Trump administration flew roughly 500 immigrants to Guantánamo between February and June 2025, at a reported cost of about $100,000 per person per day The machinery built in 2001 was never dismantled. Machinery that isn't dismantled gets used again on somebody else. Saadia's take: she is not here to acknowledge the anniversary. She is here to audit it. Learn more about the Center for Constitutional Rights at ccrjustice.org, or follow @ccrjustice. Next Tuesday: a woman whose father, a firefighter, went into the towers and did not come out. She was six. She has spent the years since objecting to what this country did to Muslims in her family's name.

Travis takes Jake and Liv inside Operation Puppet Master, Homeland Security Investigations' months-long effort to uncover the supposed command structure and funding behind Minnesota's anti-ICE protests. Undercover agents entered meetings and Signal chats, tailed activists, and searched union and nonprofit finances. Reports released in the case against 15 activists reveal the bizarre amount of government resources poured into surveilling people in Minnesota, including one instance in which 21 agents spent two hours staking out a “de-arrest” training session that had already been canceled. The crew examines what happens when QAnon-style paranoia acquires federal badges, undercover agents, and subpoena power.

Text the show! What if changing nothing but the political name attached to a fact could change whether you believe it?Turns out, researchers have tested exactly that—and the results aren't particularly flattering to either side.This Wacky Wednesday starts with a strange reaction to a previous Common Sense episode: government and academic wildfire research being dismissed as a “Trump talking point.” From there, Chad follows the same mechanism through decades of American politics.Xavier Becerra blames Trump talking points when confronted with reporting about migrant children. Hillary Clinton invokes a “vast right-wing conspiracy”—while Bill Clinton still had an affair. The COVID lab-leak question gets branded a conspiracy before the evidence is settled. Caveats disappear from the Hunter Biden laptop story. And political-science experiments show Americans changing their views when the exact same policy gets a different politician's name attached to it. Then the bill arrives for both sides.California's own auditors raise questions about billions in homelessness spending. The GAO documents enormous improper federal payments across administrations. And after years of Republicans championing forest management, federal fuel-treatment acreage falls under Trump—because reality doesn't particularly care which team claimed an issue first. The problem isn't disagreement.It's allowing the label to answer the question before we've examined what's inside the package.But is it true?IN THIS EPISODE

Rosie interviews Dr Jeremy Walker following the recent Australian Senate Select Committee Inquiry on Information Integrity on Climate Change and Energy (2025), to which he presented both written and in person evidence. Dr Walker is Senior Lecturer in the School of Communications, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of Technology Sydney. He's a member and past director of the Climate Society and Environment Research Centre (C-SERC) at UTS, and a research fellow of the Whitlam Institute, Western Sydney University, and the International Climate Social Science Network based at Brown University, Rhode Island, USA. With two decades of research into the Atlas Network informing his submission, Dr. Walker sheds light on the secretive world of climate misinformation and disinformation. During the show we also discuss the rise of racism and Pauline Hanson; the extended disinformation and astroturfing against the Victoria to NSW Interconnecter (VNI) West and the Victorian ALP government; and the relationship of fossil fuel money and local Atlas Network linked groups to both. The links below are well worth a look: Link to Senate Select Committee on Information Integrity on Climate Change and Energy, with access to submissions, documents, Hansard and video: https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Information_Integrity_on_Climate_Change_and_Energy/ClimateIntegrityDr Jeremy Walker's submission is no. 243.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us Fan MailMachinery manufacturing is among the most operationally complex segments of the ERP market, with business requirements varying significantly across OEMs, component manufacturers, distributors, field service organizations, and equipment rental companies. Many organizations also operate multiple business models under a single corporate structure, adding further complexity to ERP selection. As a result, choosing the right ERP system requires more than evaluating company size or feature lists. It demands a clear understanding of the organization's unique combination of manufacturing, distribution, service, and rental processes to ensure the platform supports both current operations and long-term growth.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top Machinery Manufacturing ERP systems in 2026. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these ERP systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each ERP system.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP_jGo2xmMERead: https://www.elevatiq.com/post/top-machinery-manufacturing-erp-systems/Questions for Panelists?

U.S. farmers continue to grapple with elevated machinery costs despite recent changes in trade policy that have reduced tariffs on some imported equipment. Equipment dealers and farm organizations say prices for tractors, combines and replacement parts remain significantly above pre-pandemic levels due to higher manufacturing costs, supply chain disruptions and increased labor expenses.

RJ Spina, a metaphysician who healed himself from chest-down "permanent" paralysis, reveals that suffering isn't real—only your mistaken ownership of a character that was never truly you. From being told he had 48 hours to live to feeling pure joy while his body broke down, RJ shows that liberation comes when you stop identifying with your thoughts, pain, and story. He witnessed agonizing pain without suffering, proving that you are the awareness watching the storm, not the storm itself.Using metaphors like the sun (untouched by weather) and the time-lapse camera (unaffected by the fire it records), he explains that healing isn't a process—it's an instant release of crystallized identity. The ego mind keeps you trapped by turning everything into a drawn-out journey, but letting go can happen in a single second.We explore why narcissists are a separate genus of being designed as catalysts for your evolution, why the soul deliberately chooses trauma for accelerated growth, why unconditional love is actually a spiritual control agenda, the one-second meditation technique, why pain and pleasure are identical sensations at higher consciousness, and how manifesting wealth operates through the exact same inner mechanics as healing your body.Your character gets traumatized—but you, the I AM, have never been touched. Will you keep rearranging furniture in the same room, or finally step out of the house entirely?___
Professor Angus Fletcher, from Ohio State's Project Narrative, comes back for a second lap around the machinery of belief, where the mind runs on story long before it runs on proof. From Oedipus to Copernicus to Darwin, every paradigm shift in the history of science turns out to be won by elegance, timing, and a culture hungry to hear it, never by data alone. Math describes the world with astonishing precision, Fletcher argues, but only narrative can explain it, because explanation is a causal story and causal stories are what minds are built upon. What remains is a 3 step action manual for changing minds, our own included, one honest surprise at a time.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

Lesley Groff, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime executive assistant, told the House Oversight Committee in a closed-door interview that she booked massage appointments for Epstein “almost daily,” but denied knowingly arranging appointments with anyone she believed was underage. Groff said Epstein usually gave her names and phone numbers, that the calls were brief, and that massages were treated as a routine part of his schedule. Lawmakers pressed her hard on how she could work for Epstein for 18 years and not recognize what was happening, with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi saying her explanation “strains credibility.” Groff maintained that nobody she spoke with sounded underage and that she was not “evaluating voices.”Groff also said Epstein manipulated her after his 2008 arrest by claiming he had been blackmailed and set up, and that she believed his explanation at the time because he could appear kind and generous. She said she now sees that as part of his manipulation, expressed sorrow for survivors, and said she believes them. The testimony matters because Groff was identified years ago as a potential co-conspirator but was never charged, and her account highlights one of the central unresolved questions in the Epstein case: how someone so close to the daily machinery of his life could claim not to understand that the endless “massage” appointments were part of the abuse pipeline.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure Day, Higher Frequencies, and the Threshold of a New Human Reality Guests, Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, Linda Moulton Howe Spielberg's Disclosure Day Opens a Bigger Conversation In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld gathers a panel to review Steven Spielberg's newly released film Disclosure Day. Alan is joined by longtime UFO investigator Linda Moulton Howe, along with Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, who bring perspectives from UFO research, consciousness studies, spirituality, ancient texts, and the wider disclosure movement. Alan frames the film as perhaps one of the most anticipated cinematic events in modern UFO culture, because it deals not simply with science fiction, but with the possibility that humanity is being prepared for a deeper truth about non-human intelligence. Frequencies, Clicking Sounds, and Consciousness Communication Linda Moulton Howe begins by emphasizing the importance of frequency in the film. She connects Spielberg's use of clicking sounds and nonverbal communication to government documents, abduction cases, and reports she has heard from experiencers over decades of research. Dr. J.J. Hurtak also highlights the film's treatment of language, sound, and consciousness, contrasting it with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, where communication was centered more on tones and music. In Disclosure Day, the panel says Spielberg brings in the human element more fully, suggesting that extraterrestrial contact may involve mind-to-mind communication, frequency, empathy, and higher consciousness rather than ordinary speech alone. From Science Fiction to a Disclosure Bridge Alan and the panel repeatedly stress that they do not see Disclosure Day as merely another science fiction movie. They argue that Spielberg has gathered decades of UFO, UAP, consciousness, government secrecy, telepathy, cover-up, and experiencer material into a film that functions as a bridge between old disbelief and a new cultural acceptance. Alan says Spielberg seems to have been a serious student of the phenomenon, including many familiar themes from UFO research: government secrecy, private industry involvement, recovered craft, mind control, empathy, and the question of whether the public has a right to know. Government, Corporations, and the Machinery of Secrecy A major part of the discussion focuses on the film's depiction of government secrecy and private industry. Alan references the fictional corporation Wardex, which is tied to retrieval and extraction programs, and connects that to real-world claims associated with figures such as Lieutenant Colonel Philip J. Corso. Linda and the Hurtaks discuss how governments may have transferred recovered technologies or sensitive programs into corporate hands to create plausible deniability. Linda traces this secrecy back to World War II and Eisenhower-era briefings, while Alan says the film dramatizes the tension between those who hide the truth and those who believe humanity has a right to know. Fear, Love, and the Human Right to the Truth The panel describes the film as a contest between fear-based secrecy and the higher message of empathy, love, and transcendence. Alan says humanity is caught between fear and higher consciousness, and that the film presents empathy as a key to humanity's future. Linda is especially moved by the final minutes, saying she felt empathy not only for extraterrestrials but also for humanity, because people have not been told the truth as a species. The panel agrees that disclosure should not merely be informational; it should be transformational, helping humans understand themselves as part of a larger cosmic family. Religion, Creation, and the Many Mansions of the Universe The film's spiritual themes are also central to the panel's review. Alan, Linda, and the Hurtaks discuss the Catholic sister character in the film, who recognizes that the universe is too vast to exist only for humanity. They connect this idea to the Book of Genesis, Christ consciousness, the New Testament phrase about “many mansions,” ancient Coptic and Greek texts, and the idea that creation includes many levels of life and intelligence. Rather than seeing extraterrestrial intelligence as opposed to spirituality, the panel presents it as part of a larger divine creation story in which humanity must expand its understanding of soul, consciousness, and cosmic purpose. What Spielberg Shows — and What He Leaves for Later The group praises Spielberg's restraint but also discusses what the film does not fully show. Linda says she wished Spielberg had introduced more kinds of non-human intelligences, including tall whites, Nordics, reptilians, plasma beings, and other forms she has encountered through witness testimony. Alan suggests Spielberg may be taking the public slowly by first introducing one or two categories of extraterrestrial presence before expanding into a wider range of beings. The panel agrees that the film is likely only the beginning of a broader cultural process and that future films, government releases, or public disclosures may reveal a more complicated landscape. Disclosure, Timing, and a Planet Under Pressure The panel repeatedly asks why this film and this moment are happening now. Linda suggests the timing may relate to future geophysical changes, solar activity, rising oceans, environmental instability, and the possibility that extraterrestrial assistance may become necessary for humanity's survival. Alan connects the timing to recent government disclosures and the public release of UFO/UAP information, while Dr. J.J. Hurtak frames the moment as a sociological, psychological, economic, planetary, and spiritual convergence. The group agrees that humanity is being prepared for contact because the old reality is no longer sufficient. The Soul, Empathy, and the Next Stage of Humanity A major theme in the latter part of the program is the soul. Linda shares memories from childhood of feeling a protective pressure in her chest while looking at an image of Christ with lambs, a feeling she still associates with soul, protection, and love. Dr. J.J. Hurtak describes the soul as the inner architecture of life, a field of consciousness that continues beyond the body. Dr. Desiree Hurtak adds that different beings may have different levels of soul evolution, and that humanity is learning to access abilities such as remote viewing, telepathy, and higher-dimensional awareness. Alan says these gifts of the spirit may allow humans to meet non-human intelligences on a more equal footing. “Listen”: The Word at the Doorway The panel gives special attention to the film's final message: listen. They interpret the word as a call to listen to extraterrestrials, higher intelligence, divine purpose, inner senses, compassion, and one another. For Dr. J.J. Hurtak, this connects to sacred language and the ancient call to hear the divine frequency. Alan sees Spielberg's film as a “signifying agent,” a cultural bridge that helps people move from an old reality into new realities. The episode closes with a shared prayer from Linda, “May the thought that dwells in the light protect us forever,” followed by Alan's disclosure-themed song, “Did You See It?”, which he presents as an anthem for this new moment.

Bill Gates' carefully cultivated public image as a calm, charitable, soft-spoken philanthropist is facing renewed scrutiny as questions around his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein continue to follow him. The focus is on how Gates transformed himself from a hard-charging Microsoft executive into a global humanitarian figure, with public relations teams shaping everything from his clothing and media appearances to the tone of his interviews. That polished “Mr. Nice Guy” image is now being challenged by reporting about his Epstein meetings, criticism of his personal conduct, and a growing public suspicion that the friendly billionaire persona was carefully manufactured rather than organic.The broader issue is that Gates' reputation depends heavily on trust, and the Epstein connection damaged that trust in a way philanthropy alone cannot easily repair. Melinda French Gates has previously said his meetings with Epstein were a factor in their divorce, while Gates himself has called those meetings a mistake. The result is a public-relations problem that goes beyond one scandal: it raises questions about elite access, image management, accountability, and how powerful men are able to soften their reputations through philanthropy while uncomfortable parts of their history remain unresolved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Is Bill Gates' Mr Nice Guy image beginning to crack? – Firstpost

Send us Fan MailThe Architecture of Empire: Walter L. Hixson on the Israel Lobby and the Machinery of Endless WarPart Two: The Nakba's Blast Radius and the Capture of U.S. Foreign PolicyEpisode DescriptionSeventy-eight years ago, the Nakba dismantled Palestinian society. Today, we are living inside its blast radius.What began in 1948 with the violent mass displacement of over 700,000 people has metastasized into a sprawling, multi-front geopolitical fire. We are now watching the Middle East get swallowed by a disastrous and widely rejected regional war with Iran—a conflict fueled by corrupt demagogues desperate to trade human lives for their own political survival.How does a republic repeatedly bankrupt its moral standing and its treasury to underwrite conflicts its citizens actively despise? It doesn't happen by accident. It is engineered.In Part Two of our historical deep-dive into the U.S.-Israel Special Relationship, host Jeremy Rothe-Kushel reaches back to a profoundly relevant late-2021 conversation with diplomatic and cultural historian Walter L. Hixson.Stripping away the polite fictions of Washington double-speak, Hixson exposes the actual plumbing of imperial power. We break down the modern Israel lobby in plain daylight: the massive flow of capital, the ruthless political coercion, and the organized infrastructure of silence that captures U.S. foreign policy and locks the American public into a perpetual cycle of militarism and repression.If we are ever going to extinguish the fire, we must first understand exactly who built the furnace. Step beyond the walls with us.Guest Bio: Walter L. Hixson is a diplomatic and cultural historian, a contributing editor of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, and the author of numerous vital books, including Architects of Repression: How Israel and Its Lobby Put Racism, Violence and Injustice at the Center of US Middle East Policy and Imperialism and War: The History Americans Need to Own.Listen & Explore Further:Walter Hixson's Bio & Work: University of AkronExplore the Show Archives: Listen to past episodes, including Part 1 with Grant Smith, at the KKFI Understanding Israel Palestine archive: kkfi.org/program/understanding-israel-palestine/Beyond the Walls Substack: beyondthewalls.substack.com

Factory built, deployed in modules, cost effective, flexible power generation systems for geothermal? That's right, Critical Energy is aiming to change the landscape for geothermal development timelines with their cutting edge, factory built, modular ORC turbines. Spencer Jackson, Founder and CEO, spent many years at SpaceX working with systems while much hotter, not that different and he thought to himself why not tackle heat recovery in a meaningful way. With their approach, the landscape for geothermal could be radically revitalized, lowering barriers to entry, lengthy time to markets, decreasing costs, supply chain bottlenecks, etc. ultimately unlocking more resource and capital faster.

3. HEADLINE: The Machinery of Fear: The IRGC Octopus and Gen Z's Defiant Rage GUEST AUTHOR: Nilo Tabrizy SUMMARY: Nilo Tabrizy details the machinery of state repression, describing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as an "octopus" influencing the economy and social behavior through units like the Basij. The regime weaponizes grief, attacking funerals to prevent them from becoming revolutionary rallies. Tabrizy highlights the disproportionate targeting of Kurdish minorities, who are often accused of baseless crimes like cooperating with foreign intelligence. Furthermore, she identifies Generation Z as the movement's driving force. Lacking economic prospects and future hope, these young Iranians confront the regime's sadistic violence with palpable, unyielding rage. 31600 ARTAXERXES II

The ability to know what the future might hold can seem pretty compelling, but what if it has a downside?In this episode, in answer to a question from a guest on a retreat, Thom explores why wisdom is not always an abundance of knowledge, but the ability to move between broad context and intimate human experience.Through the lenses of dharma, avidya, and pattern recognition, Thom reveals how not knowing can be part of what makes life meaningful, relational, and full of discovery. Listen in to hear the Vedic perspective on why surprise in life is not a flaw, but part of its intelligence.Episode Highlights[00:45] Q - Are patterns part of dharma?[01:28] A - Zooming In and Out of Context[06:02] Avidya and Not Knowing[09:07] Mastering The Ignorance Dial[11:45] Operating the Machinery of Life[14:48] Elevational Theater[18:13] Being Lovable Through IgnoranceUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
Veterans of the Vietnam War came home carrying something they had no words for, and in many cases they never found any. And yet — decade after decade, one act of preservation at a time — people have refused to let their experiences disappear. And that refusal is its own kind of service.

Two of our kids are coming home from their missions this year. I've been thinking about the importance of their growth and happiness that they've experienced on their missions. As I reflected on how much they both learned from companions, investigators, using their strength each day to walk and talk and meet people I realized that when they come home, the struggle will be in maintaining the spiritual further, even though their lives are not 24 hour proselyting are teaching. Then my thoughts led to how many times we as humans want to get healthy and lose weight. We start working out. Many times we are able to set goals to lose weight and get fit and we accomplish that goal. We feel really good. Then when we get to that golden desired place, we need to go into maintenance phase. Meaning, we will need to set goals and boundaries that make it so we don't return to our old habits. Finding a healthy way to stay in maintenance. That to me is the hardest part. It's really not that difficult to decide to lose the weight and do the things you have to do to get there. It's maintaining what you've accomplished. Your growth really came in the experience of getting to that goal. Learning and growing in the gospel can be the same. We gain knowledge, we serve in callings, we have spiritual experiences, we get answers from God, we see miracles happen in our loved ones lives, but for some reason we forget and don't focus on the maintenance. We go in to our old habits and behaviors and forget to focus on God and his bountiful blessings. Join me today as I share some thoughts on MAINTENCE!"An introspective look may reveal that we too and our families could benefit from our doing some needed maintenance and renovation work, even a seismic upgrade!"
