Iran tensions hit a breaking point. With B-2 bombers deployed and negotiations collapsing, the panel debates whether a strike on Iran is imminent, what happens if the Ayatollah falls, and whether the U.S. has a real succession plan or risks another Middle East power vacuum.

JAKEGTV is joining us live from the supposed war zone in Puerto Vallarta, where the Zionist media is shoving down endless footage of black smoke, burning buses, torched stores, flaming highways, and panicked tourists after the U.S.-backed hit on CJNG leader El Mencho. Stew Peters breaks down Tucker Carlson's absolute demolition of Mike Huckabee in their explosive Israel interview. Huckabee, the fake Christian Zionist US Ambassador to Israel, got caught red-handed pushing the Jewish supremacist fantasy that Israel has a “biblical right” to steal the entire Middle East from the Nile to the Euphrates.

James Corbett appears in two separate interviews for KLA.TV. In the first, he discusses how the US/Israeli relationship explains Uncle Sam's moves in the Middle East and how technocracy explains the so-called "Donroe Doctrine." In the second, he goes in-depth on the Epstein files and what they reveal about the operations of the kakistocracy.

Today Jerusalem is the major point of conflict between the Arabs and Jews; both claim it as their own. There can be no peace in the Middle East—or elsewhere in the world—until this conflict is resolved with the return of the King-Messiah Jesus. Pastor Runge will take you through Jerusalem's past and into her future in the plan of God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1094/29?v=20251111

Dr. John Gartner joins Joanna Coles for a bracing deep dive into what he argues are the accelerating signs of cognitive and behavioral decline in Donald Trump—from garbled words and meandering stories to grandiosity, paranoia, and the spectacle of falling asleep at his newly formed Board of Peace. As they dissect Trump's escalator conspiracy tale, obsession with looks, fixation on naming landmarks after himself, and late-night social media tirades, the conversation widens to the real stakes: nuclear codes, Middle East brinkmanship, the midterms, and what Dr. Gartner calls the dangerous mix of narcissistic injury and unchecked power. With references to Greenland, Gaza, Iran, the Justice Department, and even the shadow of the Epstein files, Coles presses on whether any institutional guardrails still hold—or whether impulse now drives policy.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. The next round of talks between the United States and Iran is scheduled for Thursday in Geneva. Even as US military pressure mounts, Tehran expressed hope that a nuclear agreement could be reached that would avert a looming attack. Berman updates on where things stand ahead of US President Donald Trump's State of the Union address tomorrow. We then turn back the clock to last week's inaugural Board of Peace meeting in DC. Washington secured some $7 billion in pledges toward Gaza’s recovery from key Mideast allies; five countries agreed to contribute troops to the International Stabilization Force tasked with phasing the IDF out of Gaza; and plans are advancing to deploy thousands of Palestinian police in Gaza within two months. What about Hamas demilitarization? Berman weighs in. In a program released Friday following his brief visit to Israel, right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson claimed the Israeli government targeted his family, called the Jewish state “probably the most violent country on earth” and aired numerous antisemitic tropes. We hear why the media personality is latching on to them -- and who is listening. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The immense buildup of U.S. military forces in the Middle East has the world on edge waiting for a decision from President Donald Trump on whether he will take action against Iran. As negotiators discuss a potential nuclear agreement, Trump and his top aides have seemingly set this week as the critical stretch to reach a deal. But the prospect of a limited strike on the country remains. Playbook's Jack Blanchard and White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns break down the latest signs from the White House and what might come next.

//The Wire//1900Z February 23, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: SECRET SERVICE NEUTRALIZES GUNMAN AT MAR-A-LAGO. BUILDUP CONTINUES IN MIDDLE EAST AS MASS EVACUATIONS BEGIN. CONFLICT REMAINS INTENSE IN MEXICO.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Mexico: Following yesterday's intense fighting in Jalisco, most airlines have canceled flights out of Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta. The main hospital in Guadalajara was evacuated for a few hours, after CJNG forces threatened to attack the facility due to rumors that wounded Federal forces were being treated there. The National Guard base in San Juan de Los Lagos was attacked with explosives (possibly RPGs), which resulted in several casualties.Far to the north, schools throughout Baja and Tijuana have been cancelled for all levels of education until further notice, and various Cartel-affiliated social media pages have declared a 10:00pm curfew for civilians, announcing that anyone caught outside after this hour will be shot.Concerning casualties sustained so far, Government forces report a total of 25x KIA as of this morning, most of which occurred as a result of the attack on the National Guard base. For CJNG, casualties are not known, as they usually withdraw with their wounded/dead without disclosing casualty figures until much later (if at all).Analyst Comment: Officially, the position of the Federal government is that absolutely nothing is happening whatsoever. This morning, President Sheinbaum stated several times that no blockades were in place, no engagements took place at all this morning, and everything is perfectly calm. This is mostly a lie, as multiple arson attacks have been reported this morning, but it's the story that the federales are sticking to. It is true that the knee-jerk response yesterday was an intense flash-in-the-pan, however much more substantial resources are staging throughout the nation, as many different cartels get ready for a protracted fight, if that is the chosen course of action.At lower levels of government, officials are not taking any chances. Authorities being concerned enough to cancel classes and close businesses in Baja is interesting as most people thought that this state was entirely controlled by the Sinaloa Cartel...not CJNG. This also means that conflict is likely to spread throughout the country, not just Jalisco where the violence first began. Cross border-conflict has not yet been observed in American border towns just yet, however with the speed at which hostilities have developed, a hot, shooting war can break out in any location at any time.-HomeFront-Florida: Over the weekend, a suspected assassination attempt was reported at Mar-a-Lago, after an assailant armed with a shotgun and incendiary materials breached the inner perimeter of the compound. Sunday morning, the US Secret Service posted a press statement confirming that one suspect had been killed at Mar-a-Lago after breaching a perimeter fence.Analyst Comment: Due to the sensitivity of the site, zero details have been provided on where the suspect breached the fence, or where the individual was engaged within the compound. No information has been posted regarding the shooter's identity or motive for the attack.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In the Middle East, wartime preparations continue as before. Meanwhile on the diplomatic front, negotiations between the United States and Iran are scheduled to resume in Geneva on Thursday. Over the weekend, the Iranian diplomatic delegation was presented with a letter from the United States, outlining the proposals for limits on the Iranian missile program. As the Iranians have stated from the very start that their missile program itself is not up for discussion in any way, they returned the letter, reportedly unopened. At the time, most surmised that this was the last chance the Iranians h

Sign up for the Heartland Experience trip: https://israelguys.link/israel-trip-86ewkwta8 Did Tucker Carlson really "visit" Israel — or did he just fly into the VIP terminal on his private plane for a few hours, and then leave? After claiming he was detained and harassed by Israeli security, Israeli officials strongly denied the allegations, saying he was asked only routine questions in a VIP lounge. On today's podcast, the guys break down Tucker's latest interview with an Arab Christian from Bethlehem. In a world full of lies and propaganda, it's important to hear from Jews and Christians who are boots on the ground in the Holy Land. At the same time, the Middle East may be approaching a far more serious moment. Reports indicate the United States is conducting the largest military buildup in the region since 2003, with aircraft carriers, fighter jets, and strike capabilities moving into position amid renewed Iran tensions. Israel's Home Front Command has reportedly been instructed to prepare for war, while diplomatic efforts continue behind the scenes.

Strength and Shield Tumbler! https://israelguys.link/thermos-86ewp1qx4 As each day passes, America continues to deliver massive amounts of military armaments to the Middle East making the possibility of a full out engagement with Iran more and more likely. Rumors are pointing more and more to the possibility that America may launch a strike as early as this week.  In the meantime Israel is ramping up airstrikes against Hezbollah, pre-empting a possible missile attack should Iran give the order. If they don't succeed in taming Hezbollah's missile ability, it's very possible we could see a joint Iran and Hezbollah attack against Israel in the near future, which could be very dangerous for Israel's civilian population.  While this is happening Israel yet again changes the status quo on the Temple Mount in some surprising ways.  Josiah breaks it all down for you here on the show.  Follow us on Telegram: https://t.me/theisraelguys      Follow Us On X: https://x.com/theisraelguys    Follow Us On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theisraelguys  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theisraelguys  Heartland Tumbler: https://theisraelguys.store/products/heartland-tumbler  "Israel" Leather Patch Hat: https://theisraelguys.store/products/israel-1948-cap   #israel #IsraelNews #gaza #hamas #westbank #judeaandsamaria #Hezbollah #Iran

Supreme Court ruling against Trump tariffs exposes ruling class crisis / US military buildup in Middle East against Iran largest since 2003 / Australia: Police raid Canberra bar, seizing anti-fascist artwork under Labor's new “hate speech” laws

This week on SUNDAY WIRE: Guest host Bryan McClain is joined by Patrick Henningsen, Basil Valentine, and Adam "Ruckus" Clark for a wide-ranging analysis of the week's most significant geopolitical developments. Early in the broadcast, Patrick Henningsen reported live from Mexico amid a rapidly unfolding security crisis, where intense cartel violence erupted earlier in the day. Speaking from the scene, Patrick described largely deserted streets, active security conditions, and multiple vehicles destroyed in the violence, including a torched bus, a burned-out car, and a motorcycle left in the roadway. Local residents characterized the situation as unprecedented, as events continued to develop in real time. Following Patrick's field report, the panel shifted to the broader geopolitical landscape, examining the continued buildup of U.S. and NATO forces in the Middle East and mounting tensions surrounding Iran. The discussion explored the trajectory of escalation versus de-escalation, reviewing confirmed military deployments and assessing potential outcomes ranging from limited strikes to wider regional conflict involving major powers. The program also examined the recent surge in "alien disclosure" narratives circulating in mainstream media, including renewed attention to public comments by Barack Obama and Donald Trump. The panel considered how these narratives intersect with broader media cycles, political signaling, and public perception. All this and more on this week's edition of Sunday Wire.

Dr. Mark Hyman and Mo get into the revolutionary shift toward functional medicine and how the modern, ultra-processed diet is driving an epidemic of chronic disease, particularly in the Middle East. Dr. Hyman breaks down the power of treating the body as an interconnected ecosystem, the urgent need for aggressive food policies, and how a simple 10-day dietary reset can reverse insulin resistance and eliminate daily symptoms. They also explore the future of AI-driven health tracking and the profound, often-overlooked impact of community and social connection on human longevity. A big thanks to the team at Zenos Health Summit for setting this episode up for us. Dr. Mark HymanFunction Health https://bit.ly/4752zJkInstagram https://bit.ly/4b1n0cFWebsite https://bit.ly/3MENYxy Saudia Website https://bit.ly/495n6fBInstagram https://bit.ly/3UgTTdAX https://bit.ly/4beIQY8 Noon Instagram https://bit.ly/3XRScUYWebsite https://bit.ly/44lnA1S Brew 92Instagram http://bit.ly/3VN6MeILinkedIn https://bit.ly/42kN65EWebsite https://bit.ly/4grbAjK IWC Instagram https://bit.ly/44dxbFWWebsite https://bit.ly/43K8JMk Lexus Instagram https://bit.ly/4tRXzS6X https://bit.ly/4cDZ4gIWebsite https://bit.ly/4kTlTz6 The Mo ShowYoutube https://bit.ly/3nDwsZvApple Podcast https://apple.co/3J9ScX4Spotify https://spoti.fi/33dzsC2Anghami https://bit.ly/3mRo1uyInstagram https://bit.ly/2KAwq5vX https://bit.ly/3KanEnJTikTok https://bit.ly/43L92poLinkedIn https://bit.ly/3NkxZoeSnapchat https://bit.ly/3NM3LKQWebsite https://bit.ly/3H2DhMMEmail info@themopodcast.com

Former royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor — stripped of his titles and now under criminal investigation — is facing fresh scrutiny over alleged misuse of public funds during his decade-long tenure (2001–2011) as the United Kingdom's trade envoy. According to whistleblowers who spoke with the BBC, Andrew submitted expense claims that included the cost of massage services and excessive travel while on official trade trips, including a controversial visit to the Middle East. Several civil servants reportedly raised concerns at the time, with one saying he objected to paying for “massage services,” only to be overruled by senior colleagues. Critics say Andrew's entitlements were obscured across different budgets, making oversight difficult and enabling a culture in which questionable expenses went unchallenged.These allegations come amid a broader set of controversies enveloping the disgraced royal, including his recent arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office tied to his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. While there's no confirmed legal finding that Andrew unlawfully charged taxpayers for massages, the Department for Business and Trade declined to dispute the claims when asked, referring instead to the ongoing police probe. Meanwhile, parliamentary scrutiny is increasing, with discussions underway about formal inquiries into his conduct as envoy, and speculation in the Commonwealth about removing him from the royal line of succession entirely.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ex-Prince Andrew charged taxpayers for massages during his stint as UK trade envoy: reportsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

We sit down with Ron of Buya Toys to trace a wild pivot from gaming industry 3D artist to full-time music-inspired toy maker in Thailand. Growing up in the Middle East, art became survival, identity, and escape. After losing his job, Ron found clarity through music, The Artist's Way, and sculpting musicians like Doechii, Tyler, JID, and SZA into bold, stylized figures. We unpack launching Buya just seven months ago, shutting down a Kickstarter mid-run, pivoting to preorders, and selling out.

Show Notes: Elijah Siegler recalls the day of graduation on June 5, 1992, and the prominent promotion of the movie Patriot Games, which seemed at the time an ominous omen, as graduates began to navigate their post-grad journey. Elijah shares his advice to his kids and students: "You don't need to have your whole life post-college figured out. You just need one cool thing lined up, and that'll lead to another cool thing." Elijah describes his first post-graduation job as the editor of the Greece and Turkey book for Let's Go travel guides, which he found out about due to a last-minute cancellation. A Ticket to Israel and Traveling Adventures Elijah had previously been a researcher for Let's Go Pacific Northwest in the summer of 1989. After graduation, Elijah moved back to his parents' house in Toronto, Canada, and spent time reading and applying for jobs. Elijah cashed in his graduation gift from his grandparents, a ticket to Israel, and spent six months in the Middle East, including a solo tour of the Mediterranean. Elijah used his own guidebook for the Greece and Turkey parts of his trip and mentions Gary Bass, a classmate who edited Let's Go Israel and Egypt. Exploring the Middle East Elijah enjoyed both Greece and Turkey, finding Turkey to be one of the great travel destinations of the world. He highlights the unique experiences in Istanbul and Cappadocia, including staying in cave hotels and visiting a center for Sufi culture. Elijah reflects on his visit to Syria, noting the cultural richness and the sadness of seeing the country torn apart by civil war. Elijah moved back to Toronto, spent time with family, and eventually found a job in the non-profit sector in New York. Taking a Slow Boat to China Elijah describes his temporary job in New York, living in a basement in Chelsea, and the cultural experience of living in New York City. He recounts his decision to travel to Asia, including a trip to Japan, where he received a telegram about a job in China. Elijah took a slow boat to China from Kobe to Shanghai and then trains to Chengdu, where he taught English for nine months. He shares his experiences in Chengdu, including teaching and traveling around China, and his interest in Taoism. Opening the Door to the World's Parliament of Religions Elijah attended the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in the fall of 1993, which marked the 100th anniversary of the original event in 1893. He volunteered at the event, met various religious leaders, and was inspired to study religion academically. Elijah decided to pursue a graduate degree in religious studies, applying to various programs and eventually enrolling at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He describes the rigorous Religious Studies Program at UCSB and his initial research on Taoism in America. A Focus on Taoism Elijah explains the concept of Taoism, the indigenous religion of China, and its focus on the Tao, a non-personal divine force. He discusses the transmission of Taoist ideas to America through popular culture, such as the TV show Kung Fu and the book The Tao of Pooh. Elijah interviewed Chinese Taoist masters who came to America and taught Taoist techniques, such as martial arts and meditation. He completed his PhD on Taoism in America and began his academic career, moving from assistant to associate to full professor. The Americanization of Taoism Elijah contrasts Taoism with Buddhism, noting that Taoism does not have a missionary impulse and is spread indirectly through practices like martial arts. He discusses the Americanization of Taoism and the role of popular culture in shaping American Taoism. Elijah shares his research on the authenticity of Taoist masters in America and the concerns within the American Taoist community about who is a genuine master. He mentions the organizational structure of Taoism in China and the challenges of defining authenticity in American Taoism. Religion and Television Elijah discusses his research on religion and television, contrasting it with the study of religion and film. He argues that television's open narrative format allows for the exploration of religious change over time. Elijah highlights the religious themes in popular TV shows and how they reflect and shape American spirituality. He plans to publish a book on his theory of religion and television combining his previous essays on the topic. A Spiritual Journey Elijah shares his personal spiritual journey, growing up in a secular Jewish household and raising his children as Jewish. He expresses a strong affinity for Taoism but does not call himself a Taoist due to the formal initiation required in Taoist traditions. Elijah teaches a class on spirituality, exploring the rise of "spiritual but not religious" individuals and the history of spirituality in America. He emphasizes the importance of interfaith dialogue and understanding different religious traditions, both in his teaching and in his community involvement. Promoting Interfaith Understanding Elijah describes his involvement in the Charleston Interfaith Council, organizing cultural and educational programming to promote interfaith understanding. He organized a  Jewish Muslim Dinner in 2017, bringing together Jewish and Muslim communities for a shared meal and conversation, which has evolved into the Spirited Brunch, a self-guided tour of different sacred spaces in Charleston with snacks, promoting interfaith dialogue and cultural exchange. He encourages others to replicate these initiatives in their own communities, emphasizing the importance of interfaith connections and understanding. Harvard Reflections Elijah  was in the comparative study of religion that was drawn from other departments in the Divinity School, and he mentions professor Diana Eck, who was the chair of that committee on the comparative study of religion. She started something called the pluralism project in 1991 and that summer, Elijah was in the first cohort of student employees for that so I actually got paid to go to Los Angeles and study religious diversity there and inter religious dialog, and in particular, Buddhism.  Timestamps: 01:30 Initial Career Steps and Travel Experiences  04:06: Exploring Greece, Turkey, and Syria  09:03: Moving to New York and Asia  12:10: Attending the World's Parliament of Religions  15:21: Research on Taoism in America  17:31: Taoism in America and Its Cultural Impact  28:59: Religion and Television 31:49: Personal Spiritual Journey and Teaching  39:29: Interfaith Initiatives in Charleston  Links: Faculty Bio: https://charleston.edu/religious-studies/faculty-staff/siegler-elijah.php Spirited Brunch: https://thefoodsection.com/spirited-brunch-101/ The Musical: https://www.happylandmusical.com/ Featured Nonprofit: The featured nonprofit of this week's is brought to you by Tobey Collins who reports:  "Hi.

Middle East correspondent Jacob Brown spoke to Lisa Owen about fears of an all-out war between the US and Iran, and the military buildup in the region, as well as an American ambassador's comments about Israel which caused outrage.

This episode of Viewpoint This Sunday detonates two political flashbangs back-to-back: the Supreme Court torpedoing Trump's global tariffs—and a looming U.S.–Israel strike on Iran that could reshape the Middle East overnight. Host Malcolm Out Loud brings the heat with a rapid-fire, no-filter discussion featuring economic strategist Christian Briggs, as they unpack what the SCOTUS decision really means—and why the fallout could hit the economy, the midterms, and Trump's entire trade strategy at once.The core question driving the first half: Was this a “ruling” or just an “opinion”—and who actually has the power to stop the president? Engel goes straight to the Constitution, arguing tariffs are fundamentally taxes and that Congress—not the president—holds the power to impose them. He warns that using emergency powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act doesn't authorize taxation, and he frames the Court's decision as a necessary check on executive overreach—regardless of whether tariffs are good policy. Briggs largely agrees on constitutionality, even while insisting Trump's intent was to restore a level playing field and defend American manufacturing.Then the conversation gets explosive: refunds. If the tariffs were unconstitutional, Engel argues the government may have effectively “taken” massive sums—raising the question of whether importers (and ultimately consumers) are owed billions back, even though costs may have already been passed down the chain. That's when the debate turns political: does this ruling help Republicans by easing cost pressure before midterms—or does it hurt them because the tariffs already squeezed younger and lower-income Americans? Briggs argues the damage is real, pointing to GDP pressure, shrinking discretionary income, and price spikes that hit working families hardest.But the biggest moment isn't even about tariffs—it's about the terrifying truth underneath the argument: America's system is broken. The hosts openly wrestle with a brutal reality—Congress is dysfunctional, the public doesn't understand constitutional mechanics, and the country now treats SCOTUS like a final kingmaker even though the Court has no enforcement arm. Engel warns that if Americans surrender the “republic” mindset and treat nine justices as rulers, the nation drifts toward oligarchy. Briggs adds that executive power has expanded for decades across administrations, and now Trump is being forced to navigate a system where courts, Congress, and public perception collide.And just when you think it's over—Malcolm tees up the next crisis: Iran. Experts warn a strike looks imminent, and that negotiating with Tehran may be equivalent to negotiating with fanatics.If you want one episode that captures the constitutional collision, economic fallout, and geopolitical fuse all at once—this is it.

Spouting Off with Karen Kataline Geopolitical Tensions, Regulatory Overreach, and the Quest for Election Integrity This episode of Spouting Off, hosted by Karen Cataline, features deep-dive interviews on the resurgence of global antisemitism, the technical and economic hazards of California's trucking regulations, and the recent FBI seizure of 2020 election records in Fulton County. The program highlights a growing friction between state-level policies and federal oversight across international and domestic fronts. Middle East Realities and the Shadow of Iran Josh Haston, Middle East correspondent for JNS, discusses the "Israel Uncensored" podcast and the alarming rise of "Jew hatred" in mainstream society. He highlights the historical continuity of antisemitism, drawing parallels between ancient history and the aftermath of the October 7, 2023, massacre. Haston points out a stark hypocrisy in global activism: while thousands of Iranians have been massacred by their own regime, there is a lack of corresponding protest at Western universities or cultural events like the Grammys. Regarding regional security, Haston asserts that Iran remains committed to nuclear armament, viewing Israel and the U.S. as primary targets. While Saudi Arabia currently navigates a complex diplomatic path to avoid Iranian aggression, there is long-term potential for their inclusion in the Abraham Accords once the nuclear threat is neutralized. The Economic and Safety Impact of Trucking Regulations Mike Kucharski of JKC Trucking criticizes California's aggressive emission standards, specifically the implementation of Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) systems. These regulations add over $40,000 to the cost of new vehicles and introduce "derate mode," a safety hazard that forces trucks to slow to 5–15 mph on active highways during system failures. Kucharski argues that these state-specific rules disrupt the national supply chain and create dangerous conditions for drivers stranded on highway shoulders. However, the industry sees a potential shift with EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, who may challenge California's regulatory intrusions and prioritize federal uniformity over state-level mandates . Election Integrity and the Fulton County Investigation Political analyst Jeff Cruere examines the recent FBI seizure of 2020 election records in Fulton County, Georgia. The seizure included hundreds of boxes of ballots, voter rolls, and digital images, marking a significant development in the years-long controversy surrounding the 2020 vote count. Cruere notes that for years, individuals questioning the election results were vilified or prosecuted, yet the current investigation suggests legitimate concerns regarding machine corruption and procedural anomalies. He emphasizes that the lack of government accountability in previous scandals (such as Benghazi or the IRS targeting of Tea Party groups) has fueled grassroots pessimism, making the current FBI action a critical litmus test for the justice system. The episode underscores a period of intense transition in American policy, where the "last chance" for the country—as described by Jeff Cruere—is being met with a race against time to reform election laws and roll back restrictive state regulations. Whether through the FBI's renewed interest in 2020 records or the EPA's potential pivot on trucking, the overarching theme is a demand for transparency and a return to federal standards that prioritize safety and constitutional integrity.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) A powerful winter storm has isolated New York City and hobbled transport networks, threatening to be among its worst on record, with 41 million people across the US East Coast facing blizzard conditions. The storm shut down the vast majority of flights out of the region’s largest airports on Monday, including in the New York area and in Boston. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani declared a state of emergency and closed streets, highways and bridges to most traffic after 9 p.m. Sunday until noon Monday. Major snowfall of as much as 30 inches is expected across the East Coast in some areas, with the heaviest set through Sunday night and into Monday morning, the National Weather Service said, making travel impossible.2) Senior US officials said President Trump’s tariff defeat at the Supreme Court won’t unravel deals negotiated with US partners as they sought to defend the administration’s assertive trade policies. Those deals — which the administration made with partners including China, the European Union, Japan and South Korea — remain in place, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Sunday on CBS’s Face the Nation. He sought to separate those arrangements from the planned 15% global tariff Trump announced Saturday. Friction over the renewed uncertainty spilled out Sunday as the European Parliament’s trade chief said he’ll propose freezing the EU’s ratification of a trade deal with the US until the Trump administration clarifies its policy. In New Delhi, officials cited similar reasons for India postponing talks in the US this week on finalizing an interim trade deal. The US Supreme Court ruling that struck down Trump’s use of emergency authority to wield tariffs preceded his planned trip next month to China. Greer suggested that alternative US trade tools, including those involving investigations of other countries’ trade practices, would give the US leverage.3) The US and Iran are set to resume talks Thursday in Geneva, according to Omani mediators. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said he expects to meet US special envoy Steve Witkoff for the talks and reiterated that Iran won’t be pressured by a US military buildup in the region. Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said on X that the US-Iran negotiations “are now set for Geneva this Thursday, with a positive push to go the extra mile towards finalizing the deal.” After talks last week, a US official said Iran was expected to return with proposals in two weeks to bridge remaining gaps. The US has orchestrated a massive military buildup in the Middle East including two aircraft carriers as President Trump presses Tehran for a new nuclear deal. Trump said on Friday he’s considering limited strikes on Iran, risking another destabilizing conflict.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bill O'Reilly joins Jillian Michaels for a deep dive breakdown of two explosive crises shaking the world: a potential U.S. war with Iran — and the growing fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files. With American aircraft carriers and stealth fighters converging in the Middle East, O'Reilly shares rare insight from his private conversations with Donald Trump, revealing what a real conflict with Iran could look like, why nuclear inspections matter, and how U.S. foreign policy shifted under Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Then the conversation turns to the Epstein cover-up. While European countries arrest Epstein collaborators, America's elite remain untouched — including billionaires like Bill Gates and celebrities like Jay-Z. O'Reilly exposes the staggering three million documents in the Epstein investigation and explains the procedural roadblock preventing prosecutions in the U.S. And what are the Clintons really hiding? As Hillary Clinton launches a defensive media blitz pointing fingers at Trump, the facts remain: Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's plane 26 times and hosted him at the White House 17 times. O'Reilly calls on Congress to release the missing Secret Service logs to finally determine who was truly on Epstein's island. This is an unfiltered conversation about war, power, corruption, and the collapse of due process — and why accountability looks very different depending on who you are. No cable-news theatrics. No talking points. Just raw truth about Iran, Epstein, the Clinton cover-up, and what comes next. Subscribe for more unfiltered conversations on Keeping It Real with Jillian Michaels.

This week on The Necessary Conversation, Trump takes hits from every direction — the Supreme Court, international investigators, the polls, and even his own economic reality — while still trying to grab more power, more money, and more control.⚖️ Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump's TariffsIn a major loss for Trump, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that most of his tariffs are illegal, saying the president does not have unilateral authority to impose them under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Two Trump-appointed justices — Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett — joined the majority. Trump responded by attacking the Court, accusing his own judges of bias and disloyalty, and is now scrambling to impose a new 15% global tariff through other legal loopholes.We ask:Should Trump have to obey rulings from judges he appointed?Does this restore any faith in the Supreme Court?Is the economy actually better after Trump's tariffs?

Trouble seems to be constantly brewing among the nations of the Middle East. There are wars, bombings, and complete unrest. Is this a fulfillment of prophecy or only “birth pains”?

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Iranian officers briefed Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon, Fabian discusses assessments regarding the Iranian proxy in Lebanon attacking Israel if the US strikes Iran and Iran strikes Israel, and the concurrent uptick in IDF attacks against Hezbollah in recent weeks. Fabian reports that the world's largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald Ford, is about to reach the region, offering another stage of readiness for a possible US strike against Iran. After dozens of settler activists entered the closed military zone of the Gaza border on Thursday night, Fabian notes that the political action diverted the army’s attention away from defending against potential attacks.
