Een kritieke kwetsbaarheid in de privacycoin zcash zorgde afgelopen week voor flinke onrust. Het lek zat in de Orchard pool, het privacygedeelte van het zcashprotocol, en was sinds de activering in mei 2022 onopgemerkt aanwezig. Beveiligingsonderzoeker Taylor Hornby ontdekte het gat eind mei met behulp van Opus 4.8, een openbaar model van Anthropic. In een testomgeving kon hij er een onbeperkt aantal vervalste zcashmunten mee aanmaken, volledig onzichtbaar voor de buitenwereld. Was het lek op het echte netwerk misbruikt, dan had het de geloofwaardigheid van de totale muntvoorraad kunnen ondermijnen. Ontwikkelaarsorganisatie Shielded Labs maakte het probleem openbaar en verhielp het in een spoedupdate, binnen enkele dagen na de ontdekking. Toch reageerde de markt nerveus. Door de privacyeigenschappen van Orchard valt namelijk niet met zekerheid vast te stellen of iemand de fout eerder al misbruikte. Die onzekerheid woog zwaar. Zcash verloor op het dieptepunt meer dan 50 procent en er werd voor ruim 100 miljoen dollar aan posities geliquideerd. Onder de verkopers zat Arthur Hayes, beleggingsdirecteur bij Maelstrom en lange tijd uitgesproken voorstander van de munt. Hij stootte zijn volledige positie af, omdat misbruik niet wiskundig viel uit te sluiten. In de prijsanalyse staat de bredere markt centraal. Bitcoin zakte de afgelopen week opnieuw weg en beleefde de derde grote capitulatie van deze bearmarkt, met een daling van 17 procent in vier dagen vanaf zo'n 74.000 dollar. Sinds vrijdag krabbelt de koers langzaam op richting 63.000 dollar. Tegelijk zien analisten rond de vier miljard dollar aan uitstroom uit de bitcoin ETF's, wat de vraag oproept of verdere dalingen dreigen. Ook wat eerdere bearmarkten ons leren over het verloop daarna komt aan bod. En een primeur uit de Verenigde Staten! Een stel uit Michigan sloot de eerste reguliere hypotheek met overheidsgarantie af waarbij bitcoin als onderpand dient. De lening loopt via hypotheekverstrekker Better en wordt gedekt door Fannie Mae, de door de overheid gesteunde instelling achter een groot deel van de Amerikaanse hypotheekmarkt. Lang gold cryptovaluta als te volatiel voor zo'n constructie, maar dat veranderde nadat toezichthouder FHFA onder leiding van Bill Pulte besloot crypto op centrale beurzen mee te laten tellen. Munten in een eigen wallet tellen daarbij niet mee. De opzet bestaat uit twee leningen: een gewone hypotheek volgens de regels van Fannie Mae en daarnaast een tweede lening met de crypto als onderpand. Dagelijkse koersschommelingen leiden niet tot gedwongen verkoop, al kan de verstrekker bij langdurige betalingsachterstand alsnog ingrijpen. De vraag is of zoiets ook naar Europa en Nederland komt, of dat strengere regels dat voorlopig tegenhouden. Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

Cormac McCarthy is often caricatured as a conservative writer, and maybe there's something to that, but that claim gets reductionistic fast. In this episode, I explore Chapter 7 of Patrick O'Connor's Cormac McCarthy, Philosophy and the Physics of the Damned, “A Maelstrom of Doing and Undoing: McCarthy's Political Imaginary,” and think through McCarthy as a political writer whose work can't be easily mapped onto our usual categories.Rather than giving us a clean ideology, McCarthy forces us to sit with the tension between order and chaos, law and lawlessness, community and exclusion, freedom and violence. I reflect on Blood Meridian, The Orchard Keeper, The Stonemason, Tocqueville, technocracy, fragile dwellings, and the strange dignity of making a world even as it comes undone.This is McCarthy's politics: not a platform, not nostalgia, not utopia, but tragic attention to the people and places buried beneath the official story of progress.

Over the next few weeks, Rim and AB will revisit the first season of 'Flavor of Love', when VH1's "celebreality" shows were ascending to their mainstream raunchy peak. Thanks for listening. (Timestamps below)

In this episode I read and discuss the most recent Q'uo channeling from March 17, 2026. The topics are extraordinary. Why fourth density energies of love and acceptance are meeting such resistance. Why catalyst is intensifying specifically to break through the avoidance mechanisms we have built. Ra's statement about wanderers being swept into the Maelstrom — and Q'uo's brilliant unpacking of what that Maelstrom actually is: a swirling circular pattern of stuck energies that pulls everything into repetitive cycles of fear, self-protection, and projecting insecurities outward. Why positive people — even wanderers — align themselves with leaders and movements that contradict service-to-others values, and how the Maelstrom makes it nearly impossible to see clearly while you are spinning in it. And the remarkable non-verbal autistic children demonstrating telepathic abilities featured in the Telepathy Tapes — Q'uo confirms many of them are dual-activated beings operating both third and fourth density bodies simultaneously. The difficulty they experience is caused by society forcing them into strictly third density ways of being.   You can find more at www.llresearch.org

What happens when an edition starts showing its age and a new one looms on the horizon? In this episode, Carl, Adan, and Josh take a hard look at the end of 10th Edition and what GW's own history tells us about what comes next. Because this isn't the first time the 40k Universe has gone through a transition, and if you know where to look, the patterns are hiding in plain sight. From the Narrative Avalanche of closing Warzones – the 500 Worlds, the Maelstrom, and the legendary return of Armageddon – to the historical precedent set by the Gathering Storm and the return of Guilliman at the end of 7th Edition, the crew breaks down exactly how GW winds down an edition and why, even in the chaos, it's actually a great time to be a fan. But the conversation doesn't stop there. 11th Edition previews are already dropping, and the internet is already on fire. Cover rule changes, new terrain layouts, character reveals; the crew walks through what's been shown and, more importantly, how to think about it clearly before the hot takes take over. Plus, we tackle the very real challenge of Rules Bleed (that maddening moment when your brain defaults to the old rules mid-game) and share practical tips for making a clean transition into a new edition. The edition may be ending, but the episode is just getting started!

Singapore shares dipped today, in line with regional markets. The Straits Times Index was 0.03% below the flatline at 4,891.12 points at 2.35pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$1.16B seen in the broader market. In terms of companies to watch, we have Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust, after the manager today posted a 2.6 per cent fall in distribution per unit to S$0.019 for the fourth quarter ended March 2026, from S$0.0195 in the same year-ago period. Elsewhere, from movements in the Japanese Yen after the Bank of Japan kept interest rates steady despite a hawkish split, to how investors weigh the geopolitical maelstrom in the Middle East, more international headlines remained in focus. Also on deck, how Meta is reportedly preparing to unwind its acquisition of artificial intelligence startup Manus after China blocked the deal on national security grounds, and what the US-China tech rivalry could mean for the US tech sector going forward. On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Jeff Ng, Head of Asia Macro Strategy, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sarah Ferguson's attempt to justify her emails to Jeffrey Epstein by claiming they were done to “protect her daughters” is a transparent deflection that insults basic intelligence. Wrapping herself in the mantle of motherhood, she painted her ongoing contact with a convicted predator as some sort of maternal shield, when in reality it looked like the opposite — a willingness to lean on a disgraced figure for her own convenience while ignoring the wreckage he inflicted on other families. To invoke her children in this context reeks of spin, not sincerity, as though the mere mention of her role as a mother could excuse her proximity to a man whose entire world revolved around abusing minors.The defense collapses under its own hypocrisy. If “protecting children” was truly her priority, she would have cut Epstein off entirely, loudly and unequivocally, once his crimes were undeniable. Instead, she framed her communications as if she were nobly safeguarding her daughters, while simultaneously overlooking that Epstein's empire existed to exploit the very age group she now claims she was shielding. The audacity of such a defense only compounds the disgust: she did not just fail to show moral clarity, she attempted to co-opt parenthood itself as cover for her poor judgment — a move that exposes the rot at the heart of her excuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sarah Ferguson claims she was trying to protect Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie when she sent apology email to Jeffrey Epstein 'as her children come first' | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has come under mounting political pressure as renewed scrutiny surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files has reignited questions about the role of prominent political figures connected to the scandal. The controversy intensified following developments involving Peter Mandelson, whose past association with Epstein has resurfaced in newly discussed records and testimony circulating in the United States. Critics across the political spectrum have argued that the situation places Starmer in an uncomfortable position because Mandelson remains a powerful and influential figure within Labour circles despite the long-running controversy surrounding his links to Epstein. Opposition politicians and some voices within Starmer's own party have demanded greater clarity about Mandelson's relationship with Epstein and whether any additional information contained in the emerging files could further implicate figures tied to the British political establishment.The pressure on Starmer stems not only from Mandelson's history with Epstein but also from the broader political optics of appearing reluctant to distance the government from individuals connected to the disgraced financier. As new material from the Epstein files continues to circulate and international investigations expand, critics argue that Starmer must confront questions about Mandelson's role directly rather than allowing the issue to linger in the background. The controversy has created an awkward political dilemma for the prime minister: Mandelson is widely seen as a veteran strategist and influential voice within Labour's political orbit, yet his association with Epstein has repeatedly sparked public backlash. With the Epstein files continuing to generate headlines in both the United States and the United Kingdom, Starmer now faces intensifying calls from opponents and transparency advocates to address the issue head-on and clarify his government's stance on figures linked to the scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In this episode I talk with Arlene Goldbard about her new book that I think takes on a quiet but consequential democratic problem: how, in unstable times, the hunger for certainty can slide into surrender—of discernment, of agency, and responsibility.Rather than offering answers or heroes, her book The Intercessor uses story to explore how people learn to stay in relationship, inquiry, and ethical choice without handing their power over to charismatic leaders, rigid belief systems, or the promise of spiritual or political shortcuts.In this conversation, we explore three deeply relevant themes:Intercession as a practice of discernment, and learning how to listen without disappearing yourself in the process.How artists and cultural workers can function as bridges , helping communities resist the pull toward false certainty.And repair as a practiced skill, not an abstract ideal, but rather personal, communal, and spiritual repair that only happens when people remain accountable to one another.You're right to call that out. No reason to shrink the ecosystem. Here it is restored—full cast, fuller descriptions, URLs embedded in the titles, and organized by the four categories you've been using.Notable MentionsPeopleArlene Goldbard: Cultural critic, novelist, painter, and longtime leader in community-based arts. Author of The Intercessor and In the Camp of Angels of Freedom. Her work bridges spiritual inquiry, democratic practice, and cultural organizing.Rabbi Arthur Waskow: Founder of The Shalom Center and a central prophetic voice in Jewish Renewal. A pioneer in linking Jewish spiritual practice with social justice, environmental activism, and interfaith organizing.Rabbi David Wolfe-Blank: Influential Jewish Renewal teacher known for his mystical depth and pedagogical clarity. A formative guide for many Renewal leaders, including Goldbard.Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi: Founder of the Jewish Renewal movement. Brought Hasidic mysticism, experimentation, and interspiritual dialogue into contemporary Jewish life.Paulo Freire: Brazilian educator and author of Pedagogy of the Oppressed. His concept of “conscientization” (critical consciousness) undergirds much community-based arts and democratic cultural practice.PlacesALEPH: Alliance for Jewish Renewal: The national umbrella organization for Jewish Renewal communities, ordination programs, and spiritual leadership training.

It's time for a narrative review double-header! As the end of Tenth Edition draws closer, Games Workshop is rolling out narrative sets to highlight some of the hotspots in the galaxy, and in this episode, we look at the first two releases. In part one, we delve into the 500 Worlds set, featuring the Ultramarines trying to reclaim the lost worlds of Ultramar, as well as a sprawling map-based campaign system. Does this sector-wide campaign system scratch the itch for high-level strategic play, or is it too complex for the average group? Then, in part two, we dive headfirst into The Maelstrom, home of the pirate tyrant Huron Blackheart and his Red Corsairs. How does its notoriety-focus campaign compare to the 500 Worlds system? And does the Crucible of Champions answer all our prayers for opening up a toybox of character options? Listen to find out!

It's easy to get overwhelmed by the onslaught of horrible headlines.  But advocates need to fight, and words are our weapons.  But the problem is, lawyers are never taught how to cut through the noise and get to the heart of the argument.  Part 1 defined the problem:  Abuse of Power; Trump exerting total control over the Department of Justice to weaponize the law against his enemies.   Don Lemon is the target de jure. In this, Part 2 of "Absolute Power" we consult with communications expert Dr. Randy Olson on how to cut the noise and speak clear truth to power.  But it's not easy, particularly when the powers that be engage in Steve Bannon's strategy of "flooding the zone with shit." Therefore, Dr. Olson provides valuable guidance on how we can better communicate the truth of what's happening.     IN THIS EPISODE:     Cutting through the information maelstrom to find the central theme of your communication (the "Dobzhansky" template); Understanding the power of narrative; Messaging for turbulent times; How Steve Bannon weaponizes non-narrative to "Flood the Zone with Shit"; "The Gish Gallop";  The "DNA" of narrative:  Dream, Nightmare, Action; Constructive critique of Abbe Lowell's press release in the Don Lemon case; The key to narrative is proper framing; A musical finale – in honor of friends and family in Minnesota – "Hospital in Duluth"  (written and performed by Doug Passon, with Ken Murray on harmonica).   LINKS: MORE ON DR.

Recent, publicly released documents from the Epstein files show that French politician Jack Lang had a documented personal relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein that extended over several years. Lang's name and correspondence appear numerous times in Department of Justice files, including emails thanking Epstein for hospitality and evidence that Lang and his family accepted favors such as use of Epstein's vehicles. Epstein also made donations and financial contributions tied to Lang's circle, including to a French nonprofit and film projects linked to Lang's daughter; those connections have already prompted professional consequences for her. Lang has maintained that he did not know about Epstein's criminal activities at the time and has denied wrongdoing, but the documented correspondence and interactions are now a significant part of the broader scrutiny of how Epstein cultivated relationships with influential figures.Similarly, former Norwegian prime minister and Thorbjørn Jagland appears in the Epstein archives with documented contact and communications. Emails published from the files show repeated exchanges between Jagland and Epstein, including plans discussed regarding trips and requests involving contacts overseas, and interactions that span years. Norwegian authorities have now opened a formal criminal investigation into Jagland for gross corruption related to these ties, focusing on whether he received improper benefits such as paid travel, medical bills, or other financial advantages during his time in prominent positions like head of the Norwegian Nobel Committee and Secretary-General of the Council of Europe. Jagland has acknowledged the contacts and described them in diplomatic terms, but the emerging evidence and ongoing investigations mean his relationship with Epstein is under active legal and public scrutiny.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsourceFrance's former culture minister Jack Lang summoned over Epstein links - France 24Norway investigates former prime minister over Epstein ties - ABC News

Let's examine an alternate timeline that sees the Knights of Takhisis take over, corrupt Dragonlances and raise a flying Citadel from Icewall. Buy Legends of the Twins: https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/3252/legends-of-the-twins-3-5?affiliate_id=50797  https://youtu.be/7ptaSEFzU0A Transcript Cold Open Winter should never come in summer. But in this timeline, the snow never stopped falling… And the dragonlances themselves became weapons of darkness. Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. My name is Adam, and today we're taking a look at one of the alternate timelines found along the River of Time: the War of the Darklance. I'd like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron–you can even pick up Dragonlance media or get $10 by signing up to StartPlaying.Games using my affiliate links. I'm referencing the Legends of the Twins sourcebook for this information. If I leave anything out or misspeak, please leave a comment below. Discussion The River of Time carries every age, every hero, and every tragedy forward—but it does not flow as a single, unbroken stream. Branching from it are countless tributaries, alternate Krynns shaped by small divergences or catastrophic changes. The War of the Darklance takes place in one such world. Here, the Graygem is never broken. Chaos is never released. Wild Sorcery and Mysticism never emerge. Ambient magic lies dormant, subdued, and tightly controlled. At first glance, this seems like a safer world. But without Chaos to disrupt the fabric of time, the Balance itself becomes rigid—and fragile. When evil learns from its failures and ceases to destroy itself, the result is not equilibrium. It is domination. At the center of this darkness stands Lord Ariakan, son of Ariakas. Unlike the Dragon Highlords of the past, Ariakan does not cling to pride, infighting, or ancient grudges. Instead, he creates something unprecedented: a unified knighthood modeled after the Knights of Solamnia, but devoted wholly to Queen Takhisis. The Knights of Takhisis embrace modern ideals. They wield magic without fear. They integrate warriors, priests, and mages into a single doctrine. And most importantly—evil does not turn against itself. For the first time, the Dark Queen's forces march with discipline, coordination, and purpose. The turning point of the war comes with an act so profane that it scars the world itself. The Knights of Takhisis cannot create weapons of light—but they can corrupt them. Captured dragonlances are brought before a ritual involving three unholy artifacts: the Altar of Takhisis, the Wand of Corruption, and the Hammer of Darkness. Placed upon the obsidian altar, the dragonlances smoke and weaken. The wand suspends them in a field of pure evil, tearing at their magical essence. Finally, the hammer strikes the blade, sealing the transformation. Thus, the darklance is born. These weapons strip the Whitestone forces of their greatest advantage. And the ritual's consequences ripple outward—into the sky, the land, and the seasons themselves. In the year 383 AC, Ansalon enters a nightmare remembered as the Summer of Frost. Temperatures steadily fall throughout spring. By summer, the world freezes. Crops fail. Livestock die. Starvation spreads faster than any army. The sky becomes perpetually overcast. Paladine seems powerless. Even Chislev cannot restore nature's order. Faith begins to crack. And it is in this moment of desperation that the invasion begins. The Knights of Takhisis strike swiftly. Kalaman falls. The Northern Wastes and Nordmaar collapse soon after. At Icewall, the dead Highlord Aren Feal-Thas is reborn as a death knight, cursed and bound to undeath. Icewall Glacier begins moving north—alive, jagged, relentless—guided by Feal-Thas's thoughts and emotions. Floating above it is Icewall Castle, transformed into a flying citadel. White dragons patrol the skies, wielding darklances, while thanoi, sivak draconians, and barbarian tribes march below. Entire villages vanish beneath the ice. As the Blood Sea freezes solid, the minotaurs see their moment. Led by Chot Es-Kalin, they march across the ice toward Ansalon, beginning a brutal campaign of genocide against the ogres. Though larger and stronger, the ogres lack discipline. Battle after battle, the minotaurs advance—until the thaw comes too late for Chot's secondary forces, which plunge into the Maelstrom beneath the melting ice. Chot himself remains stranded on the mainland, facing an ogre counteroffensive with no retreat. The war spares no one. The Qualinesti Forest burns, assaulted by dragons and Thorn Knights. Qualinost is destroyed. Elves flee—some to Ergoth, others east toward Silvanesti, where they are met with resentment and fear. The High Clerist's Tower falls for the first time in history. Tanis Half-Elven and Steel Brightblade die in its defense. Their fallen comrades are buried in mass graves, their names carved into stone. Palanthas surrenders without a fight. The Tower of High Sorcery is destroyed from within as Dalamar the Dark brings it down to prevent the Knights of the Thorn from reaching the portal to the Abyss. Whether Dalamar survives is unknown. Ergoth becomes the last refuge. Overcrowded. Hungry. Diseased. Clerics of Mishakal work tirelessly, overwhelmed by suffering. Gnomes abandon invention for joy and instead build engines of war. Even the kender feel the weight of despair. Yet resistance survives. Merinda uth Brishard leads roving Solamnic knights. Galvan Stonebreaker wages his private war. Underground movements form in Palanthas and Khur. And even within the darkness, evil begins to strain against itself. Aren Feal-Thas seeks to overthrow Ariakan. Mirielle Abrena consolidates her own power. The Blood War threatens Ariakan's eastern flank. The Balance may yet reassert itself.  This timeline has no fixed ending. The Knights of Takhisis have conquered most of Ansalon. Winter still grips the land. Another natural winter is coming. The Heroes of the Lance are gone. Now, the fate of the world rests with new champions—thieves, killers, outcasts, and survivors—people who may have to abandon honor to preserve hope. If the war can be won, the scars will remain. The land will never be the same. And the people of Ansalon will carry this darkness forever. But if the fight is abandoned—then this tributary of the River of Time ends in ice, silence, and shadow. The War of the Darklance is a world where evil learned, adapted, and nearly won. A Krynn where hope is fragile, honor is costly, and the Balance hangs by a thread.  And that makes it one of the most haunting alternate timelines in all of Dragonlance. Outro But that is all the time I have to talk about the Alternate Timeline: War of the Darklance. Do you like the idea of Dragonlance's being corrupted? Can the death Knight Feal-Thas rival Lord Soth? And finally will the Knights of Takhisis ever be overthrown? Leave a comment below.

The coalition that sent Donald Trump back to the White House appears fragile as Republicans search for a successor who can unite the party once Trump exits the stage. New results from The POLITICO Poll reveal ideological fault lines that could threaten to break up the base of voters who any potential Republican presidential candidate will rely on in 2028. Vice President JD Vance, who many believe could be up to the task, tried to quell a round of MAGA infighting at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest. Playbook's Adam Wren and politics reporter Andrew Howard break down what the current state of the right says about the future of the Republican Party.

There have been persistent reports claiming that Bill Clinton was deeply shaken by the fallout surrounding his association with Jeffrey Epstein, particularly because of fears that Hillary Clinton might finally leave him over it. According to those accounts, Hillary was furious when Epstein's connections to powerful figures resurfaced and when flight logs, photographs, and witness statements reignited public scrutiny around Bill's relationship with Epstein. The reporting describes her as feeling blindsided and humiliated, believing the renewed controversy threatened not only her personal life but her public legacy, and that she was allegedly weighing the possibility of ending the marriage if more damaging information surfaced.Those same sources say Bill became terrified that years of political partnership and personal reinvention were about to collapse. They describe him scrambling behind the scenes to manage the damage, reassure Hillary, and insist that nothing criminal or compromising had occurred, all while working to distance himself publicly from Epstein. The accounts paint a picture of a marriage under extreme pressure, with Bill allegedly fearing that a split during the height of the Epstein revelations would destroy whatever remained of his reputation and cement a narrative he could never escape. Whether those rumors reflect reality or not, they have continued to circulate alongside every new development in the Epstein saga, underscoring how corrosive and far-reaching the scandal has been for anyone connected to it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Two big things are happening in Washington today, and each involves a separate controversial figure. On Capitol Hill, the House is set to vote on closely watched legislation to release the files from the investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It is far from the first time Epstein has been at the center of activity on the Hill, but President Donald Trump's U-turn to encourage Republicans to vote for the release has taken much of the drama out. At the White House, Trump will welcome Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for the first time since the killing of Jamal Khashoggi. Playbook's Jack Blanchard and White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns walk through what to expect, plus Trump's latest affordability pitch.

Crypto has spent years obsessing over tokens, airdrops, and speculation. But what about the unsexy businesses actually making money? Arthur Hayes and Adam Schlegel join Laura Shin to talk about Maelstrom's $250M private equity fund targeting crypto's most profitable, yet overlooked, companies, $50M revenue businesses with 50% margins that VCs can't touch and exchanges won't pay cash for. But while everyone frames this as just another fund, Hayes and Schlegel argue it's actually the missing piece in crypto's maturation: a cash buyer for founders who've done their time and want out without four-year earnouts.  Plus: Why Asian crypto companies with monster margins get ignored by Western capital.

On this Thursday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid focuses on the indefinite suspension of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel following comments about Charlie Kirk, deemed offensive by Nexstar Media Group. The FCC Chairman suggested possible punitive measures, prompting Disney, owner of ABC, to pull Kimmel's show. This incident draws comparisons to CBS's cancellation of Stephen Colbert's show. Sid also covers President Trump's comments about labeling Antifa as a domestic terror organization and bringing legal action against agitators. Additionally, Rosenberg delves into the New York City mayoral race, with endorsements for Zohran Mamdani from top Democratic leaders and his campaign priorities like universal childcare.
