En una autonomía marcada por la despoblación y el peso del mundo rural, la batalla electoral vuelve a jugarse, sobre todo, en el campo. ¿Cómo afectarán las protestas contra Mercosur a las urnas? En este episodio hablamos con el colaborador de EL PAÍS, Juan Navarro, que ha seguido toda la campaña electoral, y conoce la realidad una zona en la que un procurador más o uno menos puede acabar siendo decisivo.

Wyobraźcie sobie, że prowadzicie restaurację. Kupujecie drogą, eko, bio wołowinę, spełniacie wysokie normy sanitarne, lokal jest skrupulatnie kontrolowany przez Sanepid i inne służby, płacicie podatki. W efekcie serwujecie smaczne, zdrowe ale i nietanie posiłki. Nagle obok otwiera się lokal, który serwuje podobne dania dwa razy taniej, bo nie przejmuje się żadnymi przepisami. Jest równie smacznie, ale dużo taniej. I co zrobić? Tak czuje się wielu polskich rolników na myśl o wejściu w życie umowy handlowej z krajami Mercosur. Czy ich obawy są słuszne? Umowa o wolnym handlu z Mercosur to największy układ handlowy w historii Unii Europejskiej. Z jednej strony słyszymy o korzyściach - nowe rynki zbytu, miliardy zysków dla przemysłu, dostęp do rzadkich surowców. Z drugiej - przewiduje się katastrofę dla polskiego rolnictwa i ostrzega przed skażoną niekontrolowaną żywnością. Czy ta umowa to wielki gospodarczy skok i szansa na taniego burgera, czy pułapka, która zniszczy nasze rolnictwo? Gość programu: prof. Sławomir Kalinowski #mercosur #rolnicy #IPPTVNaŻywo

Moment of Clarity - Backstage of Redacted Tonight with Lee Camp
Lee connects the dots between the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, the collapse of the U.S. empire, and the rise of the modern surveillance state—and asks the question mainstream media won't touch. This episode dives deep into how power, wealth, and capitalism shape global politics, media narratives, and accountability, using sharp political satire and uncensored commentary to unpack the systems behind the headlines. If you're interested in independent journalism, political analysis, and hard-hitting comedy that challenges the status quo, this is the episode you don't want to miss.In this show, we break down why the Epstein story isn't just about one man or even a handful of elites — it's about the structures that allow exploitation, corruption, and impunity to thrive. Lee explores how billionaires, political figures, and institutions intersect with broader economic systems, arguing that the scandal reveals deeper truths about power in modern capitalism. Expect bold commentary, dark humor, and an unapologetically alternative perspective rarely found on corporate news outlets.PLUS: a look at how global trade deals, shifting alliances, and escalating tariffs could be accelerating the decline of U.S. dominance on the world stage. From Europe and India to Mercosur and Canada, we examine how international relationships are changing — and what that means for geopolitics, the global economy, and the future of American influence. Whether you follow current events, geopolitics, or anti-establishment analysis, this segment connects today's headlines into a larger global narrative.And finally, a deep dive into the dystopian surveillance culture promoted on a Super Bowl ad — from Ring cameras and mass data collection to the normalization of constant monitoring under the promise of safety and convenience. Is the future arriving faster than we think? Watch the full episode for political satire, investigative commentary, and stories the mainstream won't say out loud.

Si segnala il reclutamento russo di volontari da 36 paesi africani (circa 1.000 keniani coinvolti).LAVORO E FORMAZIONETestate: La Repubblica / Il Messaggero * Tagli allo Smart Working: Nei ministeri (Chigi, Farnesina, Giustizia) si registra un dimezzamento delle giornate di lavoro agile, scendendo a 4-6 giorni al mese o 1 giorno a settimana. * Longevità e PIL: In Italia il 25% della popolazione (circa 15 milioni) è over 65; di questi, 10-15 milioni sono in buone condizioni e rappresentano una risorsa non sfruttata per il PIL ("petrolio che non diventa benzina").EXECUTIVE TAKEAWAY (Insights C-Suite) * Incertezza Doganale Transatlantica: La sentenza della Corte Suprema USA ha creato un vuoto normativo e una mole di rimborsi miliardari; le aziende italiane con filiali USA devono valutare immediatamente le opzioni legali per il recupero dei dazi indebitamente pagati. * Diversificazione dei Mercati: Nonostante la crescita dell'export USA, i leader industriali suggeriscono di consolidare le quote in mercati alternativi come India (nuovo accordo UE), Mercosur e Golfo per mitigare l'instabilità politica americana. * Consolidamento Bancario ed AI: La redditività attuale delle banche (ROE ai massimi) deve essere reinvestita in tecnologie AI di scala; la dimensione operativa diventerà il fattore discriminante per la sopravvivenza nel medio termine. * Energia come Asset Strategico: L'accordo Eni in Argentina posiziona l'Italia come partner privilegiato per il gas liquefatto, garantendo sicurezza degli approvvigionamenti in un asse energetico che vede l'Argentina tra i primi 10 esportatori mondiali entro il 2030. * Riforma della Governance Pubblica: Il ritorno forzato al lavoro in presenza nei ministeri segnala un potenziale conflitto sindacale che potrebbe impattare sull'efficienza amministrativa e sull'attrattività del settore pubblico per i talenti.
Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria del 21 febbraio 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali.Investimenti e MercatiTestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Milano Finanza / la Repubblica / il Giornale / Corriere della Sera * Borse Europee in rialzo: Reazione positiva alla sentenza della Corte Suprema USA che ha dichiarato illegittimi i dazi di Trump. Piazza Affari è risultata la migliore in Europa con un incremento del +1,48%. Altri listini: Parigi +1,39%, Francoforte +0,96%, Madrid +0,90% e Londra +0,59%. * Andamento Wall Street: Reazione più cauta a New York; l'indice S&P 500 ha registrato un +0,6%, il Nasdaq +0,9% e il Dow Jones +0,49%. * Materie Prime e Valute: L'oro ha raggiunto un nuovo record a 5.117 dollari l'oncia (+2,4%). L'euro si è rafforzato sul dollaro a quota 1,1786 (+0,13%). * Corsa Globale all'IA: Gli investimenti globali in Intelligenza Artificiale per il 2026 vedono gli USA in testa con circa 700 miliardi di $ ( Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta e Amazon). La Cina punta a un mercato da 1.400 miliardi di $ entro il 2030. L'Europa appare in ritardo con una spesa prevista di soli 10,6 miliardi di € per infrastrutture cloud sovrane. * Export Italiano: Nel 2025 l'export ha raggiunto un valore record di 643 miliardi di € (+3,3%). Gli USA rappresentano il secondo partner commerciale con una quota del 10,4% (69,6 miliardi di €). Industria e BusinessTestate coinvolte: la Repubblica / Corriere della Sera / il Giornale / La Stampa * Crisi dei Dazi USA: La Corte Suprema ha annullato dazi che avevano generato entrate per 133,5 miliardi di $, definendoli illegali poiché non autorizzati dal Congresso. Trump ha però già annunciato una nuova tariffa globale del 10% per 150 giorni basata sulla "Section 122" del Trade Act del 1974. * Settore Agroalimentare: L'export vinicolo italiano negli USA vale il 24% del totale del settore. Nonostante il successo del Prosecco, si registra un calo generale del comparto negli USA stimato al -10% in quantità e -4,5% in valore. * Settore Farmaceutico: Comparto resiliente, ha registrato una crescita dell'export del +28,5% nel 2025, fondamentale per mantenere in attivo la bilancia commerciale verso gli Stati Uniti. * Piani Industriali negli USA: Stellantis ha confermato investimenti per 13 miliardi di $ per aumentare la produzione del 50% (5.000 nuovi posti). Prysmian ha acquisito Channell per 950 milioni di $. * Nomine e Media: Dimissioni di Paolo Petrecca dalla direzione di Rai Sport; direzione affidata ad interim a Marco Lollobrigida.Fisco, Normativa e ManovraTestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / la Repubblica / Corriere della Sera * Pagella UPB sulla Manovra 2026: L'Ufficio Parlamentare di Bilancio segnala benefici netti per le famiglie per 20,1 miliardi di € nel triennio 2026-2028. Al contrario, a imprese e autonomi viene chiesto un contributo di 9,1 miliardi di €. * KPI Deficit: La manovra comporta un aumento del deficit rispetto al tendenziale di 0,8 miliardi nel 2026, 5,7 miliardi nel 2027 e 6,8 miliardi nel 2028. * Decreto Milleproroghe: Chiusa la discussione alla Camera con la richiesta di fiducia; confermato lo stop alla proroga del credito d'imposta per la carta editoriale e il rinvio della tassa di 2 € sui mini-pacchi extra-UE. * Giustizia Tributaria: Dal 2 maggio 2026 scatterà il giudice monocratico per le liti fiscali fino a 10.000 € per accelerare lo smaltimento dell'arretrato. * Sanità Integrativa: Nuova riforma organica (DL 19/2026) che affida la vigilanza alla Covip per un settore che conta oltre 15 milioni di iscritti.Banche e CreditoTestate coinvolte: la Repubblica / Il Sole 24 Ore * Fattore Borsa: I titoli bancari hanno guidato il rialzo di Piazza Affari insieme alle assicurazioni (Unipol), grazie agli ottimi conti del 2025. * BCE e "Fattore Lagarde": Incertezza sui mercati legata alle possibili dimissioni della presidente Lagarde; la volatilità rimane il termometro principale per la politica monetaria.Energia e GeopoliticaTestate coinvolte: la Repubblica / La Stampa / Il Messaggero * Decreto Bollette: Il governo stima un risparmio lordo di 7,5 miliardi di € per famiglie e imprese tramite la sterilizzazione dei costi ETS e oneri gas. Tuttavia, l'aumento dell'Irap del 2% per i produttori energetici (impatto di 1 miliardo di €) rischia di essere traslato sui prezzi finali. * Tensioni in Confindustria: Elettricità Futura (guidata da Edison e A2A) minaccia l'uscita da Confindustria per divergenze insanabili sul Decreto Bollette. * Scenario USA-Iran: Indiscrezioni su un possibile "attacco limitato" degli USA contro l'Iran per bloccare il programma nucleare. Parallelamente, Teheran avrebbe offerto accesso ai giacimenti di gas in cambio di velivoli civili americani.Lavoro e FormazioneTestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera / La Stampa * Turn-over nella PA: Prevista l'uscita di 1 milione di dipendenti pubblici nei prossimi 6 anni a causa della "gobba demografica" (il 30% della forza lavoro attuale). * IA e Competenze: A Torino è stato presentato il piano strategico 2026-2030 dell'Istituto Italiano di IA (AI4I), con l'obiettivo di superare i 10 milioni di € di ricavi esterni e attivare 30 laboratori.Executive Takeaway (Insight per C-Suite) * Resilienza Export: Nonostante le barriere doganali e l'incertezza politica negli USA, l'export italiano verso Washington ha retto (69,6 mld € nel 2025), trainato dalla farmaceutica (+28,5%). La diversificazione dei mercati (Mercosur, India) resta la priorità strategica per mitigare il rischio Trump. * Dicotomia Fiscale: La manovra 2026 favorisce i consumi delle famiglie (20 mld €) ma drena risorse dal sistema produttivo e dagli autonomi (9,1 mld €). Le aziende devono monitorare attentamente la sostenibilità strutturale di questi interventi nel lungo periodo (post-2029). * Energy Risk: Il beneficio del Decreto Bollette (stimato in un -10/15% sui prezzi all'ingrosso) potrebbe essere annullato dal recupero marginale delle utility colpite dall'extra-Irap e dalla volatilità dei certificati ETS. * Lavoro nella PA: La massiccia ondata di pensionamenti nella PA (1 mln in 6 anni) apre opportunità per fornitori di servizi digitali e consulenza per la gestione della transizione e del reclutamento. * Sovranità Tecnologica: L'IA sta passando da ambito sperimentale a infrastruttura critica. Per le imprese italiane, la sfida non è solo l'adozione individuale, ma l'integrazione di filiera per non subire la leadership tecnologica di USA e Cina.

Ein neues amr_extra – und dieses Mal eine Folge aus dem Team, nämlich von Jelle: In dieser Episode spricht Jelle mit Erik Marquardt, Europaabgeordnetem von Bündnis 90/Die Grünen, der sich seit Jahren mit Migrations-, Menschenrechts- und Handelspolitik im Europaparlament beschäftigt. Gemeinsam schauen sie auf das Mercosur-Abkommen: Was genau wurde Anfang des Jahres politisch beschlossen, wie lief die Abstimmung im Europaparlament ab und warum war das keine simple Entscheidung „für oder gegen Mercosur“, sondern eine rechtlich komplexe Vorlage an den Europäischen Gerichtshof? Erik erklärt, welche Konflikte es um Umwelt-, Klima- und Menschenrechtsstandards gibt, warum die Grünen das Abkommen trotz Kritik inzwischen eher unterstützen und welche geopolitischen Überlegungen dabei eine Rolle spielen. Außerdem geht es um die Brandmauer zu Rechtsextremen: Wie konnte es passieren, dass die entscheidende Mehrheit bei der EuGH-Verweisung auch mit rechtsextremen Stimmen zustande kam, wo ziehen demokratische Fraktionen ihre Grenzen – und warum ist das im Europäischen Parlament mit über 200 Parteien viel komplizierter als in nationalen Parlamenten?

Most people building a global mobility portfolio have never heard of the settlement bloc that covers 18 million km, spans 9 countries, and offers citizenship timelines that make European naturalization look glacial. This video breaks down a few sensible entry points, costs, and trade-offs across in 4 MERCOSUR countries. Read the full article "The Mercosur SSB: How One Passport Can Grant You Access to an Entire Continent" with all details here.

Señoras, señoras, buenos días. Me alegro de saludarles en esta mañana en la que ya les anuncio que hay viento, mucho viento, sobre todo en la mitad de la península. Se registran olas importantes, por ejemplo, en el litoral cantábrico, el vasco y el coruñés, con alturas de más de nueve metros. Hay una borrasca activa y el tiempo inestable va a continuar, previsiblemente, hasta el fin de semana.Hoy es un día en el que, además de pedir prudencia por el viento, queremos mandar mucho ánimo a varios colectivos, especialmente a los hombres y mujeres del campo español, que ayer llenaron las calles de Madrid. Hablamos de un sector que tiene razón en la inmensa mayoría de sus reivindicaciones. No puede ser que sigan vendiendo a precios muy similares a los de hace años, que la subida del precio final no repercuta en ellos, que las ayudas europeas sean cada vez más restrictivas y que el acuerdo con Mercosur, positivo en otros ámbitos como la venta de coches, suponga dejar ...

El campo español ha vuelto a tomar las calles en una nueva jornada de protestas que ha tenido uno de sus epicentros en Sevilla. Centenares de tractores recorrían durante horas las calles de la capital hispalense, concentrándose en los alrededores de la emblemática Plaza de España. La movilización, seguida en directo por el programa 'Herrera en COPE' con Alberto Herrera, clama contra el acuerdo de Mercosur, la nueva Política Agraria Común (PAC) y un cúmulo de demandas históricas como los altos costes de producción y la asfixiante burocracia.La indignación del sector la personifica Antonio, un cabrero y ganadero de Málaga presente en la protesta de Sevilla. Para él, el acuerdo con Mercosur es inaceptable. "Es una falta de respeto al sector primario, a la agricultura, a la ganadería, es una falta de respeto a nuestra forma de vida, culturalmente, a lo que crearon nuestros padres, a lo que queremos dejarle a nuestros hijos", ha afirmado con contundencia en los micrófonos de ...

El transporte ferroviario nacional atraviesa un momento crítico con graves incidencias y una gestión deficiente.

„Jsme opravdu výjimka v EU, hospodaří zde spousta podniků, které sídlí někde v Praze na Václaváku, obdělávají tisíce i desítky tisíc hektarů po republice a nemají k půdě žádný vztah,“ říká Jan Štefl, místopředseda Asociace soukromého zemědělství. Uvítá záměr ministra zemědělství Šebestyána (za SPD) snížit rozsah zemědělské půdy, na které platí protierozní opatření? Proč vláda přihodila 800 milionů korun do zemědělských dotací a kam půjdou? A co mění přijatá dohoda Mercosur?

SEGMENT 12: MERCOSUR AGREEMENT FINALLY REACHED Guest: Professor Evan Ellis (US Army War College) Ellis reports good news as the Mercosur trade agreement concludes after 27 years of negotiations. The deal now faces court challenges while promising affordable food imports for Europe. EU farmers mount roadblock protests opposing competition from South American agriculture despite consumer benefits from the historic accord.1914 BRUSSELS
SHOW SCHEDULE 1-22-20251954 BRUSSELSSEGMENT 1: GREENLAND, NATO, AND TRUMP'S REVERSALS Guest: Anatol Lieven, Co-Host: Jim McTague Lieven examines Trump's shifting positions on Greenland and NATO, unsettling European allies who question American reliability. Discussion covers the proposed Board of Peace concept and how Trump's unpredictable rhetoric complicates alliance management, leaving partners uncertain whether commitments will hold or dissolve without warning.SEGMENT 2: GAZA AND TRUMP'S SELF-ENRICHMENT CONCERNS Guest: Anatol Lieven, Co-Host: Jim McTague Lieven analyzes Gaza ceasefire dynamics and raises questions about Trump administration officials potentially mixing policy with personal financial interests. Discussion examines how self-enrichment concerns shadow diplomatic initiatives and whether conflicts of interest undermine credibility in Middle East negotiations and broader foreign policy.SEGMENT 3: GEN Z JOB STRUGGLES AND THE TRADES REVIVAL Guest: Chris Riegel, Co-Host: Jim McTague Riegel explains how artificial intelligence eliminates entry-level white-collar positions, leaving Gen Z struggling to launch careers in traditional professions. Meanwhile, skilled trades offer prosperity since AI cannot replicate physical work. Young people working with their hands find better opportunities than peers pursuing displaced office jobs.SEGMENT 4: MAGA EMBRACES BIG GOVERNMENT LIKE NEW DEALERS Guest: Veronique de Rugy De Rugy argues MAGA policies mirror New Deal-era big government activism through state industrial policy and massive spending programs. Traditional Republican principles of limited government appear obsolete or abandoned, with the RINO label now applied to anyone advocating fiscal restraint or free market economics.SEGMENT 5: PREPARING FOR IRAN BOMBING CAMPAIGN Guest: General Blaine Holt (USAF, Ret.) Holt describes military preparations for potential strikes against Iran, including warplane and warship deployments. The KC-135 tanker buildup signals offensive capability, providing aerial refueling that enables sustained bombing campaigns. This logistics infrastructure converts fuel into striking power against Tehran's nuclear and military installations.SEGMENT 6: ESCALATION TOWARD IRANIAN LEADERSHIP Guest: General Blaine Holt (USAF, Ret.) Holt outlines concentric circles of escalation targeting Iranian leadership if conflict erupts. Discussion covers strike planning that moves progressively toward regime centers of power. China's evacuation planes positioning near Iran suggest Beijing anticipates potential conflict and prepares to extract its nationals from the region.SEGMENT 7: MODI'S TIMID REFORM AGENDA Guest: Sadanand Dhume (Wall Street Journal) Dhume assesses Prime Minister Modi as a timid reformer constrained by political realities and socialist-era institutions. India's growth potential remains unrealized as legacy regulations protect inefficient industries. Modi raised some thresholds but fundamental transformation of labor laws and state enterprises remains politically impossible.SEGMENT 8: VENEZUELA'S UNFINISHED TRANSITION Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady (Wall Street Journal) O'Grady reports Venezuela's democratic transition stalled with the same regime intact. Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello and Delcy Rodriguez control state security gunmen and prisons. No real handover to President-elect Edmundo Gonzalez has occurred, leaving the authoritarian apparatus firmly in power despite American pressure.SEGMENT 9: COSTA RICA ELECTION AND PANAMA CANAL TENSIONS Guest: Professor Evan Ellis (US Army War College) Ellis examines Costa Rica's upcoming election amid concerns over giant prison construction projects. Discussion turns to unresolved Panama Canal disputes where Chinese interference continues challenging American interests. Regional dynamics shift as nations balance between Washington's demands and Beijing's economic inducements throughout Central America.SEGMENT 10: PERU AND CHINESE INFLUENCE Guest: Professor Evan Ellis (US Army War College) Ellis analyzes China's growing investment and influence in Peru while the US offers military partnership as counterweight. Discussion covers political turmoil in Lima, economic promise from mineral wealth, and the competition between great powers for access to South American resources and strategic positioning.SEGMENT 11: TRUMP SEEKS CUBAN REGIME CHANGE Guest: Professor Evan Ellis (US Army War College) Ellis examines the Trump administration's push for regime change in Havana. Dictator Díaz-Canel faces collapsing conditions with no oil, no power, and a broken economy driving mass emigration. The Obama administration's engagement offered false hope; now Washington applies maximum pressure on the desperate regime.SEGMENT 12: MERCOSUR AGREEMENT FINALLY REACHED Guest: Professor Evan Ellis (US Army War College) Ellis reports good news as the Mercosur trade agreement concludes after 27 years of negotiations. The deal now faces court challenges while promising affordable food imports for Europe. EU farmers mount roadblock protests opposing competition from South American agriculture despite consumer benefits from the historic accord.SEGMENT 13: AL QAEDA IN DAMASCUS GOVERNMENT Guest: Bill Roggio and Ahmed Sharawi (FDD)Roggio and Sharawi examine Al Qaeda presence within Syria's new government under clever, effective President al-Sharaa. US forces struck an Al Qaeda commander responsible for killing Iowa National Guard soldiers, but ISIS elements remain unaddressed. The jihadi connections within Damascus leadership raise serious counterterrorism concerns.SEGMENT 14: SYRIAN NATIONAL ARMY DRIVES OUT KURDISH ALLIES Guest: Bill Roggio and Ahmed Sharawi (FDD) Roggio and Sharawi report the Syrian National Army increasingly resembles Al Qaeda while attacking Kurdish forces who remain US allies. The Kurds retreat under pressure from Turkish-backed militias with extremist ties. American partners face abandonment as Washington's attention focuses elsewhere in the chaotic Syrian landscape.SEGMENT 15: MUSK, CARLSON, AND VANCE DIVERGE FROM REPUBLICAN ORTHODOXY Guest: Peter Berkowitz Berkowitz discusses Michael Doran's Tablet article examining three Trump celebrities—Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, and Vice President J.D. Vance—whose views diverge from traditional Republican policies. Musk favors government subsidies and China partnership, Carlson platforms hate speakers, and Vance promotes isolationism over American global leadership.SEGMENT 16: ABANDONING SMALL GOVERNMENT AND FREE TRADE Guest: Peter Berkowitz Berkowitz argues neither Musk, Carlson, nor Vance champions traditional conservative principles of small government, free trade, and private enterprise without government interference. The Republican Party's philosophical foundation erodes as prominent voices embrace statism, protectionism, and industrial policy once associated with the political left.

Bank Of America, Citigroup May Launch Credit Cards With 10% Rate Two weeks after Trump shocked the world by demanding lenders cap credit card interest rates at 10% for one year, Bank of America and Citigroup are exploring options to do just that in an attempt to placate the president. Bloomberg reports that both banks are mulling offering cards with a 10% rate cap as one potential solution. Earlier this week, Trump said he would ask Congress to implement the proposal, giving the financial firms more clarity about what exact path he's pursuing. Bank executives have repeatedly decried the uniform cap, saying it'll cause lenders to have to pull credit lines for consumers.

If those dependencies are severed, if each country has the ability to feed, produce and innovate independently, then the entire dependency model around globalism collapses. Within the globalism model that was historically created there was a group of people, western nations, banks, finance and various government leaders, who controlled the organization and rules of the trade dependencies. The action being taken for self-sufficiency, in combination with the approach promoted by President Trump that each nation state should generate their own needs, then the rules-based order that has existed for global trade will collapse. If nations are no longer dependent, they become sovereign – able to exist without the need for support from other nations and systems. If nations are indeed sovereign, then globalism is no longer needed and a threat of the unknown rises. How will nations engage with each other if there is no governing body of western elites to make the rules for engagement? The need for control is a reaction to fear, and it is the fear of self-reliance that permeates the elitist class within the control structures. If each nation of the world is operating according to its individual best interests, the position of Donald Trump, then what happens to the governing elite who set up the system of interdependencies. This is the core of their fear. If each nation can suddenly grow tea, what happens to the East India Tea Company. Who then sets the price for the tea, and worse still an entire distribution system (ships, ports, exchanges, banks, etc.) becomes functionally obsolescent.

Conservative journalist Kaitlin Bennett revealed this week that she was charged with a federal crime and fined by the National Park Service in St. Augustine for the so-called offense of asking Democrats questions on public property. According to Bennett, federal agents targeted her while she was conducting on-the-street interviews, a form of journalism protected by the First Amendment. Despite being on public land, Bennett says she was cited and punished simply for engaging in political speech that the Left finds inconvenient. Bennett addressed the incident directly in a post on X, writing: https://twitter.com/KaitMarieox/status/2014174254799958148?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2014174254799958148%7Ctwgr%5Ef4a6650cd0c60d38edfea018c5665c2cc2fe5199%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F01%2Ftwo-tier-justice-conservative-journalist-kaitlin-bennett-charged%2F When asked by another local journalist exactly what “lawful order” Bennett had disobeyed, the ranger reportedly could not provide a straight answer.

A moment between the two went viral when Kasky casually declared that President Donald Trump had been involved in an international sex trafficking ring. Jennings wasn't going to let that remark go unchallenged by host John Berman. The topic of conversation had been Trump's interest in Greenland and the Nobel Peace Prize, but Kasky threw in a jab at Trump with an allusion to the president's relationship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — an allusion Kasky's now trying to walk back. “I would love it if he was more transparent about the human sex trafficking network that he was a part of, but you can't win 'em all,” he blurted out. https://twitter.com/overton_news/status/2013455047288377517?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2013455047288377517%7Ctwgr%5E20edbbd712c7076d1aafdac2d1e39d7eb8307263%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F01%2Fcnn-panelist-issues-retraction-apology-going-far-air%2F Berman asked Jennings a follow-up question about Greenland, but instead of addressing that, Jennings circled back to Kasky's remark. “You're gonna let that sit?” Jennings asked Berman. “Are we going to claim here on CNN that the president is part of a global sex trafficking ring or …?” After assuring Jennings that he would do the fact-checking, Berman asked Kasky to repeat what he'd said about the global sex-trafficking ring. “That Donald Trump was … probably … very involved with it,” the arrogant young man replied, with perhaps a touch less confidence. To Berman's credit, and the CNN legal team's, he immediately said, “Donald Trump has never been charged with any crimes in relation to Jeffrey Epstein.” https://twitter.com/camkasky/status/2013760245298864477?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2013760245298864477%7Ctwgr%5E20edbbd712c7076d1aafdac2d1e39d7eb8307263%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F01%2Fcnn-panelist-issues-retraction-apology-going-far-air%2F Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/ElectionWiz/status/2014189561002291385?s=20 DOGE Geopolitical https://twitter.com/brentdsadler/status/2014311942119137584?s=20 important as these agreements cover the entirety of the Chagos group of islands/features.

Negotiated for over 25 years, it aims to create one of the world’s largest free trade zones, covering more than 700 million people and reducing tariffs on goods like cars, machinery, pharmaceuticals, and agricultural products. It includes commitments on sustainability, labor rights, and environmental protections, but critics argue these are insufficient to address issues like Amazon deforestation and unfair competition for European farmers. The agreement was politically finalized in 2019 but faced delays due to environmental concerns and opposition from countries like France and Austria. It was formally signed on January 17, 2026, after EU member states (with a qualified majority, despite opposition from five countries including France) greenlit it on January 9. The Stupidity of Davos Explained Using an Example of Their Own Creation China is manufacturing a product to create a carbon credit certificate in response to the demand for carbon credits from all the world auto-makers. Any nation that has a penalty or fine attached to their climate goals is a customer. Those are nations with fines or quotas associated with the production of gasoline powered engines if the auto company doesn't hit the legislated target for sales of electric vehicles. In essence, EU/AU/CA/RU/ASEAN car companies buy Chinese car company carbon credits, to avoid the EU/AU/CA/RU/ASEAN fines. The Chinese then use the carbon credit revenue to subsidize even lower priced Chinese EVs to the EU/AU/CA/RU/ASEAN car markets, thereby undercutting the EU/AU/CA/RU/ASEAN car companies that also produce EVs. China brilliantly exploits the ridiculous pontificating climate scam and has an interest in perpetuating -even emphasizing- the need for the EU/AU/RU/ASEAN countries to keep pushing their climate agenda. China even goes so far as to fund alarmism research about climate change because they are making money selling carbon credit certificates on the back end of the scam to the western fear mongers. This is friggin' brilliant. The climate change alarmists are helping China's economy by pushing ever escalating fear of climate change. You just cannot make this stuff up. What does the outcome look like? Well, in this example we see hundreds of thousands of unsold BYDs piling up in countries that emphasize climate regulations with no restrictions on the import of EVs (which most don't even manufacture), which is almost every country. Big Panda doesn't care about the car itself; they care about generating the carbon credit certificate to sell in the various carbon exchanges. Put this context to the recent announcement by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney about his new trade deal with China to accept 49,000 EVs this year. Prime Minister Carney bragged about getting the Chinese to agree to only super low prices for the Canadian market. Mark Carney was very proud of his accomplishment to get much lower priced vehicles for Canadian EV purchasers. No doubt Big Panda left the room laughing as soon as Carney made his grand announcement. 1. China sells EV's in Canada, creating credits available on the carbon exchange scheme. Europe et al will purchase the carbon credits because Bussels has fines against EU car companies. 2. With a foothold already established in Europe, China will then take the money generated by the carbon credit purchases and lower the prices of the Chinese EV cars sold in Canada. It's gets funnier. 3. Carney bragged about forcing China to only sell low price EV's as part of the trade agreement. The low price of the EV's in Canada will be subsidized by Europe. China doesn't pay or lose a dime. But wait…. 4. Carney can't do anything about the scheme he has just enmeshed Canada into, because Canada has a Carbon Credit exchange in law.

SHOW SCHEDULE1-15-25`1923 GREENLAND Rival Factions Contending for Power in Post-Maduro Venezuela. Guest: PROFESSOR EVAN ELLIS, U.S. Army War College. Following Maduro's detention, four major crime families are competing for authority in Caracas, including the Rodriguez siblings and military leadership. While Delcy Rodriguez shows cautious cooperation with the U.S. regarding oil and prisoners, the country remains unstable as criminal interests and political repression continue to stifle progress. Cuba's Collapse Amidst U.S. Oil Blockade and Economic Ruin. Guest: PROFESSOR EVAN ELLIS, U.S. Army War College. The Trump administration has halted oil shipments to Cuba, exacerbating a crisis where the electrical grid is failing and life is becoming "impossible." Despite minimal aid from Mexico, the repressive communist apparatus remains ingrained, and the regime is expected to muddle through despite massive out-migration. Regional Tensions: U.S. Pressure on Mexico and South American Shifts. Guest: PROFESSOR EVAN ELLIS, U.S. Army War College. The U.S. is pushing Mexico for joint military operations against cartels, forcing President Sheinbaum into a "delicate dance" to protect sovereignty. Meanwhile, Brazil's Lula balances leftist ties against a conservative military, and Colombia shows a potential shift to the right as Petro's policies face significant discredit. Trade Integration and Security Concerns in Mercosur and Costa Rica. Guest: PROFESSOR EVAN ELLIS, U.S. Army War College. Mercosur has achieved a historic trade deal with the European Union, potentially offsetting U.S. economic pressure and deepening ties with China. In Costa Rica, rising public insecurity has led the government to consider El Salvador's "mega-prison" model as they head into elections dominated by concerns over organized crime. The Risks of Seizing Russia's Shadow Fleet at Sea. Guest: ANATOL LIEVEN, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. The U.S. seizure of Russian-owned "shadow fleet" tankers raises the risk of a direct military clash if European nations follow suit. Russia views a maritime blockade as an act of war. Hardliners in the Kremlin may seek to escalate to terrify the West into withdrawing support from Ukraine. Russia's Role as a Stabilizing Factor in Middle East Tensions. Guest: ANATOL LIEVEN, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Russia has reportedly arbitrated between Jerusalem and Tehran to prevent preemptive strikes and maintain stability in Eurasia. While Russia lacks the power to defend Iran from a U.S. attack, it seeks to avoid regional instability. Russia's diplomatic approach contrasts with perceived universal aggression from other global actors. Economic Realities: Chinese Struggles and U.S. Consumer Strength. Guest: CHRIS RIEGEL, CEO of Stratacache. China's economy is struggling, evidenced by declining imports of raw materials and factory workers facing destitution. In contrast, the U.S. economy remains strong, with banner retail sales during the Christmasseason. However, the "K-shaped" economy shows consumer fatigue in the quick-service restaurant sector. Strategies for a Democratic Transition in Venezuela and Cuba. Guest: CLIFF MAY, Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Marco Rubio is reportedly developing a plan for a gradual transition in Venezuela by making specific demands on the remaining "gangster regime." By cutting off subsidized oil to Cuba, the U.S. hopes to cause the collapse of the Castroite regime, encouraging people to seek liberation from tyranny. Canada's Strategic Pivot to China. Guest: CONRAD BLACK. Prime Minister Mark Carney is visiting Chinato establish a "new strategic partnership" and a "new world order." This mission serves as a "Plan B" to offset potential trade losses with the United States under President Trump, specifically regarding strategic minerals and the renewal of the USMCA agreement. The Upwardly Mobile but Anxious Middle Class. Guest: VERONIQUE DE RUGY. Despite reports of a shrinking middle class, data shows many individuals are actually moving into the upper middle class.

Cosmological Mysteries: The Little Red Dots. Guest: DINESH NANDAL. The James Webb Space Telescopediscovered "little red dots"—compact, bright objects in the early universe that are not easily explained as galaxies or accreting black holes. These findings challenge the standard model of cosmology, suggesting the universe matured much earlier than previously thought by 21st-century scientists. Mapping the Future of Space Observation. Guest: DINESH NANDAL. Advancing cosmology requires a "James Webb 2.0" with larger mirrors and a successor to the Chandra X-ray telescope. Funding is also needed for researchers to develop new mathematical models. While AI can assist with pattern recognition, human physicists remain essential for creating the necessary new theoretical frameworks. Sovereignty and the Russian Identity Crisis. Guest: GREGORY COPLEY. Sovereignty is fundamentally tied to geography and identity. In the current period of "cratomorphosis," Russia exhibits defensive nationalism rather than expansionism. To the Kremlin, Ukraine remains the "cradle of Russia," making its loss a profound threat to Russian ethos, historical religious origins, and its personal identity. China's Quest for Legitimacy and Defense. Guest: GREGORY COPLEY. The Chinese Communist Partyyearns for ancient China's legitimacy while defending its modern borders. Rather than traditional imperial expansion, China employs "total war" non-military means. However, the state currently faces a crisis of sovereignty as it implodes internally under disproven totalitarian models and intensifying defensive pressures. The Reassertion of American Empire. Guest: GREGORY COPLEY. During Donald Trump's second term, the United States moved into an offensive mode to reassert dominance and energy security. Simultaneously, the European Union faces a crisis of legitimacy, with nation-states rebelling against its supra-state model. The EUlacks a cohesive vision, leading to internal distress. Lessons from the Superpower's Economic Resurgence. Guest: GREGORY COPLEY. The 21st century reveals that nations prioritizing energy security and enforced borders tend to succeed. President Trump's focus on manufacturing and cheap energy has bolstered the U.S. economy, positioning it as an unchallenged superpower. However, his dynamic approach often alienates allies while redefining grand strategy.
