Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the ongoing controversy surrounding the Epstein files, its blackmail, the political implications of Charlie Kirk's assassination, and the growing conflict between Israel and Iran. We'll also talk about the influence of powerful Israeli interests on American foreign policy and ask whether the United States is being drawn into another Middle Eastern war against the will of its own citizens (and at our cost, yet again).--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app
Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing what may be the most consequential political moment of Donald Trump's career. With Trump's approval ratings slipping, the Iran conflict escalating, renewed questions surrounding the Epstein files, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk continuing to reverberate through the conservative movement, many Americans are asking whether these events are isolated, or part of a much larger story.In this episode, I examine the connections I believe may exist between these developments, including my view that the Epstein files may have been used as leverage against powerful political figures and that foreign interests have exerted significant influence over American policy in the Middle East.We'll discuss:Trump's declining support among his baseThe growing controversy surrounding U.S. involvement with IranThe unanswered questions surrounding the Epstein filesThe political impact of Charlie Kirk's assassination and its aftermathWhy I believe these stories intersect in ways the mainstream media refuses to exploreMy goal is not to tell you what to think, but to encourage you to question narratives, follow incentives, and examine who benefits from the decisions being made in Washington.--https://www.bible.com/
US Secretary of State Marco Rubia has said Cuba poses a "national security threat" to the US and the likelihood of a peaceful agreement is "not high". His comments come days after the US announced criminal charges against Cuba's former president Raul Castro, the brother of Fidel Castro. The charges relate to his alleged role in the shooting down of two planes in 1996, which killed four people, including three Americans. The Cuban government say the move is “a political manoeuvre, devoid of any legal foundation.”The indictment has drawn comparisons to the capture of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro, and whether the US has set the stage for military intervention.Asma speaks to Cecilia Barria, a journalist based in Miami for BBC Mundo, and Will Grant, the BBC's Mexico, Central America and Cuba correspondent, about the story behind the charges — and why three decades on, the indictment is only happening now.Producers: Sam Chantarasak and Aron Keller Executive producer: James Shield Mix: Travis Evans Senior news editor: China CollinsPhoto: Raul Castro attend the International Labor Day commemoration in Havana, Cuba, 01 May 2026.

The Bawku conflict is an ethnic conflict that requires a community-led resolution by chiefs and residents, not just military or government intervention. - Paul Boateng, Security Analyst.
8. Plokhy describes the 2008 NATO split and Putin's subsequent military intervention in Georgia. He outlines the pressure placed on Yanukovich to reject the European Union, which sparked the Maidan revolution.

Tucker Carlson has emerged as one of the most vocal critics of President Trump's recent military intervention in Iran, marking a significant split between the two figures who were once closely aligned. According to The Economist, Carlson has spent the past two weeks making a strong argument that the United States was pushed into the Iran conflict not in its own national interest but due to pressure from Israel and its lobbying power. In his view, Trump should have pushed back against these pressures, as previous presidents had done to varying degrees.The conflict between Carlson and Trump has become increasingly public and contentious. In a phone interview with Rachael Blade of The Inner Circle on March 2nd, Trump declared that both Carlson and commentator Megyn Kelly "aren't MAGA" because of their criticism of his Iran policy. Trump further elaborated to ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl, stating that Carlson has "lost his way" and claiming he's "not smart enough to understand" what MAGA actually represents. Trump emphasized that MAGA means saving America and putting America first, positioning Carlson as fundamentally misaligned with these principles.Carlson's response to being effectively cast out of Trump's political movement was measured but revealing. Speaking to Oliver Darcy of Status, Carlson acknowledged being annoyed with Trump, particularly at this moment, while simultaneously asserting that he would always love Trump regardless of what Trump says about him. This demonstrates the complicated nature of their relationship despite their political disagreements.The broader context of Carlson's criticism centers on the Iran war itself. According to The Economist interview, Carlson argues there is no legitimate argument that changing Iran's regime helps the United States. He characterizes arguments about Iranian nuclear weapons as fear-mongering, noting that Iran did not possess such weapons at the time of the military action. His fundamental position is that leaders should put their country's interests before those of foreign nations, and he believes Trump failed to do so by prioritizing Israeli interests over American ones.Carlson's current media platform remains The Tucker Carlson Show, his weekly commentary podcast that became the number one most popular podcast on Spotify in July 2024. Through this platform, he has continued to amplify his critiques of the Iran conflict and Trump's handling of it, making his podcasting central to his recent high-profile statements on these issues.The Iran conflict, which began on February 28th when the United States and Israel launched airstrikes, has created unexpected political fractures on the right side of the political spectrum, with Carlson representing a significant conservative voice opposing Trump's military intervention.Thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Following the deadliest crackdown on protestors in Iran's modern history, hundreds of thousands marched in Toronto last weekend, with protest organizers calling for U.S. military intervention—something the Canadian government has refused to rule out supporting. Iranian-Canadians Donya Ziaee and Samira Mohyeddin break down the history of struggle against authoritarianism in Iran and how what Iranians need is international solidarity—not a right-wing monarchist revival on the heels of violent western intervention.The Breach Show is our podcast featuring sharp analysis on politics and social movements in Canada.

In this week's Libertarian Angle, Jacob and Richard discuss the potential ramifications of yet another military intervention — this one against Iran again. Please subscribe to our email newsletter FFF Daily here.
A US military intervention in Iran doesn't just risk exposing Gulf states and Israel to Iranian retaliation. It also raises the spectre of a regional war spilling over into the Caucasus. With no US or Israeli targets within its borders, Iran has threatened to retaliate against Israel and US military bases in the Middle East, a threat directed at Gulf states and Israel rather than NATO member Turkey. While Iran is unlikely to attack Turkey's Incirlik Airbase that hosts the US military's 39th Air Base Wing, an uptick of ethnic nationalism, particularly among Azeris, a Turkic group who account from anywhere between 16 and 24 per cent of the Iranian population, could draw Iran's neighbours, Turkey and Azerbaijan, into a wider regional conflict on the principle of ‘you may not want war but war wants you.' Militant supporters of Israel in the United States, like the influential, far-right, Philadelphia-based Middle East Forum appear willing to shoulder the risk. The Forum has advocated a US targeting of Azeri units of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps or IRGC, which the Forum describes as the Guards' most brutal. The IRGC is among the prime targets that the US military has presented to US President Donald Trump.
Guest: Professor Evan Ellis. Ellis evaluates Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, praising her pragmatic management of relations with the U.S. despite her leftist ideology.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said the U.S. central bank was served with grand jury subpoenas by the Department of Justice on Jan. 9. Powell confirmed in a statement on Jan. 11 that officials threatened a criminal indictment over his Senate Banking Committee testimony in June 2025. Powell noted the testimony “concerned, in part, a multi-year project to renovate historic Federal Reserve office buildings.” The central bank chief dismissed the idea that this criminal probe was driven by his testimony or the renovation, saying it's connected to his position on interest rates.President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Iran's leadership has contacted his administration to seek negotiations after he warned of possible military action in the wake of mass protests in Iran. Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that Iranian leaders had reached out to U.S. officials and that a meeting between the two sides was being set up.
Would a military intervention from Trump help or hinder the Iranian protesters' cause?Joining Iain Dale on Cross Question are the Conservative Shadow Cabinet minister Andrew Bowie, Labour MP Helena Dollimore, barrister and broadcaster Hashi Mohamed, and the Institute of Economic Affairs think-tank's Reem Ibrahim.

Tucker Carlson made headlines this week with a explosive claim on the Judge Nap podcast, stating that a member of Congress informed him lawmakers were briefed on Tuesday that President Trump would announce a war against Venezuela during his address to the nation on Wednesday at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. Ahram Online and Marca reports detailed Carlson's warning that the war is coming amid Trump's total blockade of sanctioned Venezuelan oil tankers and the largest U.S. naval armada ever assembled in South America, escalating tensions with Nicolas Maduro's regime. This sparked widespread reactions, with YouTube clips from Democracy Now amplifying the buzz and international figures like Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum urging the UN to prevent bloodshed, while China condemned U.S. bullying.Mediaite's 2025 Most Influential in News Media list ranked Carlson at number 46, praising his independent success with over five million YouTube subscribers, his subscription service, and a recent live tour featuring guests like Alex Jones and Donald Trump Jr. The ranking notes his growing yet divisive influence, including heated interviews with Senator Ted Cruz and Nick Fuentes that drew millions of views and backlash over conspiracy theories and white nationalism, fueling debates on the Republican Party's post-Trump direction.No new legal or professional developments emerged, but Carlson's Venezuela comments underscore his role in shaping MAGA foreign policy discussions, positioning him as a key voice challenging mainstream narratives on interventions. His ongoing media ventures continue to thrive without Fox News backing, maintaining national relevance through provocative public appearances.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

After calling out the neocons like Jeb Bush and John McCain and building his campaign on promises of peace and putting America first, President Trump is now flirting with the idea of intervening in Venezuela to take out Nicolás Maduro, using the specter of drug cartels as a pretense. Matt Kibbe is joined by Cato Institute fellow Brandan Buck to explain why this would be a really bad idea. U.S. intervention is what led to the rise of Chavez and Maduro in the first place. Combine that with our nation's history of catastrophic nation-building experiments and the fundamental impossibility of central planning, and it's clear that America's power would be far better used in trying to improve the lives of our own citizens.

The Western elite once claimed ignorance during the Holocaust. Today, Israel's genocide in Gaza unfolds in full view, yet nothing is done.

Why is meaningful change in U.S. foreign policy is so difficult to achieve? This question is especially relevant with the U.S. presidential election just weeks away now, and analysts and policy makers all over the world are discussing how a Trump or Harris presidency might shift American foreign policy in the years to come.But how likely is it that we will see meaningful change at all? Historically, it has been incredibly challenging for presidential administrations to break away from entrenched foreign policy paths —even when the need for change seems obvious. Presidencies often start with a declaration of pivots and major strategic reorientation, these then get ground down by powerful bureaucracy, political pressures and human tendency to preserve the status quo. When change does happen, leaders often pay a high political price for it. Take, for instance, the example of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. In the end, it took two decades and much internal pushback before President Biden was able to officially make this happen - even though the decision had long had significant public support. In this week's episode, Sophia Besch sits down with Christopher Chivvis and Stephen Wertheim to discuss their research that dissects how strategic foreign policy change does happen despite pressures to maintain the status quo—and what it would take for the next American president to enact such a change.Notes:Christopher S.

Russia's forceful re-entry into the Middle Eastern arena, and the accentuated continuity of Soviet policy and methods of the 1960s and '70s, highlight the topicality of this groundbreaking study, which confirms the USSR's role in shaping Middle Eastern and global history. The Soviet-Israeli War, 1967-1973: The USSR's Military Intervention in the Egyptian-Israeli Conflict (Oxford UP, 2017) covers the peak of the USSR's direct military involvement in the Egyptian-Israeli conflict. The head-on clash between US-armed Israeli forces and some 20,000 Soviet servicemen with state-of-the-art weaponry turned the Middle East into the hottest front of the Cold War. The Soviets' success in this war of attrition paved the way for their planning and support of Egypt's cross-canal offensive in the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Ginor and Remez challenge a series of long-accepted notions as to the scope, timeline and character of the Soviet intervention and overturn the conventional view that détente with the US induced Moscow to restrainthat a US-Moscow détente led to a curtailment of Egyptian ambitions to recapture of the land it lost to Israel in 1967. Between this analytical rethink and the introduction of an entirely new genre of sources-- -memoirs and other publications by Soviet veterans themselves---The Soviet-Israeli War paves the way for scholars to revisit this pivotal moment in world history.
