FBI released a memo which reveals that Epstein killed himself and there is no client list or videos. Think about why the memo was released, why was there no date or other marking that are normally on a press release or memo. Did the FBI just expose a leaker? Did the FBI go along with it.

We want to make military equipment. We want to make big things. We want to make, do the AI thing,” Trump said.

Trump told Myanmar and Laos that they will face 40 percent tariffs on their exports, slightly lower than the rates announced at the Trump administration's April 2nd Liberation Day event. In April, Trump said Myanmar would face a 44 percent tariff and Laos a 48 percent tariff. South Africa will face 30 percent tariffs, the same rate announced on Liberation Day. Kazakhstan and Malaysia will both face 25 percent rates, Trump said. Kazakhstan was looking at a 27 percent tariff on Liberation Day and Malaysia was set to be hit with a 24 percent tariff. The administration appears to be fixing tariff rates in five percentage point steps, rounding up or down from the Liberation Day tariffs.   (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:18510697282300316,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-8599-9832"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="https://cdn2.decide.dev/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs"); Political/Rights Schumer demands investigation of Trump Weather Service vacancies in wake of Texas flooding

Max travels from the Philippines to Thailand to take a high-paying job at a casino.

This review of Careless People by Facebook/Meta whistleblower, Sarah Wynn-Williams, covers Chapters 43-48, plus the Epilogue. The book's final pages bring to life the devastating reality of how "careless people" at the helm of an unchecked platform can negatively impact the entire world, leaving civil unrest, hate crimes, acts of terrorism, and even a genocide, in its wake. Multiple horrors seem to unfold in Sarah's final months of employment. She describes a rushed an incomplete investigation into the ongoing sexual harassment from her boss, Joel Kaplan, that clears him of any wrongdoing, learning about targeted advertising strategies aimed at teens in distress, and the terror of watching bigotry and misinformation take hold in Myanmar while being unable to stop it.

Up top, I promise that this episode is not more politicized dribble. I hear it everywhere, every day, and I just will not make room for it in this show. Instead we'll be discussing the candidates who are so often looked over.   Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.   My guest today is David DeLong. David is on a mission to show the US, and by proxy other countries, that we do not have the labor shortage that we think we do; by introducing us to alternative options.  For example: 1 in 8 adult men in the US has been convicted of a felony, and that history alone eliminates you in most job application software. However, a one-time offender (with more than five years since release) is statistically far less likely to break the law or be arrested than any other employee in the company.  So let's reevaluate the opinion with this new data: Maybe you want more people with one-off convictions in your company, since they are likely safer and less likely to leave your team if given a chance.  ( Https://Www.ReadHiddenTalent.Com )  ( Https://Www.SmartWorkforceStrategies.Com )  ( https://a.co/d/gCET55S take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "Hidden Talent: How to Employ Refugees, the Formerly Incarcerated & People With Disabilities" )  ( https://www.youtube.com/@daviddelong4246 will take you to: Www.YouTube.Com - "David DeLong YouTube Homepage" )  Let's hire the overlooked!  So what do you think after hearing this? Would you advocate for any of the previous people to join your team? Why or why not?   In ranking news... July is upon us, and the global ranks are as follows: 1. The United States, with Wisconsin, California, and Oregon at the top.  2. England of the United Kingdom, just barely over Scotland.  3. Ireland.  4. Australia, with Queensland ahead for now.  5. Myanmar.  That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!  Until the next episode, pretty please do all the things to help the show: rate, review, like, and subscribe.  Reach out to DumbEnoughPodcast@Gmail.Com or on any social media if you want to reach me personally.  Most importantly, Stay Dumb!  #Podcast #Education #SecondChance #Incarcerated #Disabled #Immigrant #Hiring #Workforce

Offset-Geschäfte verteuern die bei der US-Regierung bestellten F-35 Kampfjets. Das sind Aufträge, die der F-35 Hersteller an Schweizer Industriebetriebe vergibt - als Gegengeschäft für den Kampfjet-Kauf. Recherchen von Radio SRF zeigen nun erstmals, wie stark diese den Preis beeinflussen. Weitere Themen: Die palästinensische Zivilbevölkerung im Gazastreifen leidet seit Monaten Hunger. Nun hat Israels Ministerpräsident Benjamin Netanyahu einen Stopp der Hilfslieferungen im nördlichen Gazastreifen angeordnet. Das Gespräch mit dem Journalisten Julio Segador in Tel Aviv. In den Flüchtlingslagern an der thailändisch-burmesischen Grenze leben gegen 100'000 Menschen. Sie suchen Schutz vor Gewalt und Verfolgung in Myanmar. Menschen aus Myanmar konnten bis vor kurzem in die USA reisen und erhielten dort Asyl. Doch das Programm wurde nun de facto eingestellt.

When a powerful earthquake struck Myanmar on 28 March 2025, it tore through communities already living under the shadow of armed conflict and chronic instability. In the tangle of collapsed homes and fractured lives, it laid bare the brutal convergence of natural hazard-induced disaster and manmade violence – a crisis within a crisis, testing not only the resilience of survivors but also the principles that guide humanitarian response. In this post, ICRC Communication Delegate Stephanie Xu reflects on what it means to photograph humanity at the intersection of conflict and catastrophe. Her lens captures both the visible wreckage and the quiet dignity of those rebuilding amid despair. Marking three months since the earthquake – and in a year marking the 60th anniversary of the Fundamental Principles of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement – she shows how the principle of humanity continues to illuminate and inform the work of humanitarian actors responding in some of the world's most complex emergencies.

Episode #357: When Wai Yan Phyo Naing, a civilian scholar in Myanmar vocal against the human rights atrocities of the junta, received a scholarship from a Russian university to pursue his Masters, he did not expect to receive a rare insight into the intricacies of Myanmar's military. Yet that is exactly what happened, as many soldiers were also studying at his university in Moscow. Surrounded by hundreds of uniformed students, he observed a prevalent insularity within their ranks. Yet, amid this closed environment, he identified a distinct subgroup: military officers whose willingness to interact with other international students cultivated, for him, a notable "sophistication and nuance." This observation led him to ponder the potential for these officers to subtly influence their homeland's future in ways the stricter officers could not.The dramatic 2021 coup in Myanmar, however, abruptly shifted Wai Yan Phyo Naing's focus, placing him in a precarious position. When civilian friends in Moscow sought his counsel on protesting the junta — a perilous undertaking in Russia's restrictive political climate — he opted for a more strategic approach. His background in journalism proved invaluable as he drafted a public statement against the coup. He was careful to be diplomatic with his words, an act that speaks to his conviction that internal harmony is essential for Myanmar's future as, he argues, political factions have too often favored opposition rather than seeking practical ways to collaborate with all parties, ultimately holding back the nation's holistic progress.As his research on Myanmar-China and Myanmar-Russia relations progressed, he also noted a significant geopolitical realignment recently: the junta's increasing change in strategy from its historical ties with China towards a partnership with Russia, who offer military arms to the junta. He questions this shift, considering China is a more immediate neighbor.Wai Yan Phyo Naing further speaks on what he perceives as the delicate and often misunderstood role of Buddhist monks in Myanmar's political landscape. He offers a defense of controversial Buddhist monks like Dhammaduta Sayadaw, whose public silence regarding the junta, he suggests, may be a calculated measure to avert further violence and chaos. He stresses that it is fine to criticize monks, but to blame them would be to disregard their complex positionality.Ultimately, Wai Yan Phyo Naing expresses a deep-seated anguish over the ongoing conflict. "I really hope fighting and killing each other is not the real solution for my country," he says, speaking for a future built on trust and comprehensive national development rather than perpetual strife.

In this interview, Dev Kumar Sunuwar of Cultural Survival speaks with Mohammed Rofique, a member of the Rohingya community, who shares the powerful story of how his family was forced to flee their homeland in Myanmar. Rofique recounts the difficult and dangerous journey they undertook, crossing rugged terrain, dense forests, and treacherous paths in search of safety. Facing violence, uncertainty, and exhaustion, his family ultimately reached the border of Bangladesh, where they sought refuge. Through his account, Rofique sheds light on the hardships endured by thousands of Rohingya people who have been displaced by conflict and persecution.

88 Children Removed From Iowa Bible Camp Inside the Human Trafficking Investigation  In June 2025, law enforcement descended on a small Iowa town to execute one of the largest child removal operations in the state's history. 88 children were evacuated from the Shekinah Glory Camp in Columbus Junction, launching a human trafficking investigation that would expose troubling questions about religious authority, refugee vulnerability, and alleged exploitation. The Kingdom Ministry of Rehabilitation and Recreation, run by Burmese pastors in a town where 25% of residents are Myanmar refugees, operated what they claimed was a Bible camp for addiction recovery. But when a 15-year-old from Texas made a desperate call to authorities, it triggered a multi-agency raid involving the Louisa County Sheriff's Office, Iowa DHS, and state criminal investigators. In this video, we examine: The timeline of events leading to the raid Why authorities launched a trafficking investigation The vulnerable Burmese refugee community targeted How 60+ people lived in 5 mobile homes The ministry's claims vs. what investigators found Legal precedents from similar religious compound cases Why no arrests have been made (yet) This case sits at the intersection of immigration, religious freedom, and child protection - raising critical questions about oversight of faith-based organizations serving vulnerable populations. This is an active investigation. All individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

In this video, we examine: The timeline of events leading to the raid Why authorities launched a trafficking investigation The vulnerable Burmese refugee community targeted How 60+ people lived in 5 mobile homes The ministry's claims vs. what investigators found Legal precedents from similar religious compound cases Why no arrests have been made (yet) This case sits at the intersection of immigration, religious freedom, and child protection - raising critical questions about oversight of faith-based organizations serving vulnerable populations. This is an active investigation. All individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Episode #355: “You need to pay attention to what the kids care about,” says Naomi Gingold. “It will inform so much about the place that you're trying to understand, be it politics, culture, all of it! And you do a disservice to the nature of what you're trying to understand when you don't.” In the late 1990s, amid Myanmar's strict military rule, Burmese hip hop began to emerge as a new form of cultural expression. Young people blended beats, slang, and self-assertion to create a movement that challenged both cultural norms and the political narrative of a tightly controlled society. Gingold, a journalist and academic researcher, who has spent years studying Myanmar's hip hop scene, explains that even though the music wasn't necessarily explicitly political, many facets of hip hop were expressions of agency in a harshly suppressed environment and inherently defiant. Her research (and book-in-progress) is on the birth, unexpected rise, and explosive impact of hip hop in Myanmar; it is a story she tells alongside the inseparable history and evolution of modern technology, the public sphere, as well as youth political sentiment and agency in the country. The group Acid—who became the first real hip hop stars in Myanmar—and other pioneering bands spoke to the frustrations of Burmese youth, addressing daily struggles and aspirations. Hip hop artists cleverly used coded language and slang to evade the scrutiny of an oppressive regime, embodying ideals of freedom and resistance in the process. The resurgence of military power in 2021 brought a return to repression after a period of relative openness and freedom. Among the most devastating events was the state execution of Phyo Zeya Thaw, a co-founder of Acid and a leader of the resistance. His arrest and execution in 2022 were a chilling reminder of the regime's determination to crush dissent. Those events were also deeply personal for today's guest and her research community, especially. She briefly reflects on the rise of new media post coup, "This was me reflecting primarily on changes in media/public sphere and youth political sentiment. All part of my research. Though hip hop has affected the podcasts and social media platforms have become new vehicles for artists and activists to share their stories, discuss mental health, reflect on the ongoing revolution, and chat about the future they aspire to create. These new formats have allowed Burmese voices to reach an even wider audience, bypassing state-controlled media.”

Zwei Monate nachdem ein schweres Erdbeben Myanmar erschüttert hat, ist die Situation von Millionen Menschen weiterhin verheerend. SRF Südostasien-Korrespondent Martin Aldrovandi reiste in das Land und sagt, die Zerstörung sehe immer noch apokalyptisch aus. Zwei Monate nach dem verheerenden Erdbeben in Myanmar blicken wir auf ein Land in der Krise: Der Wiederaufbau stockt, denn der Bürgerkrieg zwischen Militärjunta und Rebellen erschüttert das Land weiter. Zudem schwindet der Einfluss von den USA und Europa. China hingegen baut seine Präsenz aus. Unser Korrespondent berichtet aus einem Land zwischen Zerstörung, Machtkampf und geopolitischem Wandel. Martin Aldrovandi ist zu Gast bei David Karasek.

UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE OF GLOBAL MONEY TRANSFER IN FINANCIAL SEXTORTION SCHEMES IMPACTING TEENS AND ADULTS. Recently, our team of researchers at Million Kids saw two completely different articles about criminal online exploitation scams involving large payouts of money that were generated out of the country and impacted U.S citizens. One had the headline: “I lost $1M to a romance scam” and the other was the announcement of the arrest of criminals in West Africa that brought a naïve but incredible young man in Northern California to take his own life. Both stories are enormously heartbreaking.During this podcast we are going to look at the impact of global high speed 5g internet connection that is literally allowing overseas criminals to open the doors of unsuspecting lives in the U.S, and fleecing them of their money, driving them into deep depression and sometimes ends in suicide. We will discuss the role of scam farms where organized crime is enslaving tens of thousands of poor people in Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand, Pakistan, Ivory Coast, Brazil, Mexico, India, and Nigeria and forcing them to seduce and fleece victims in the U.S., Australia, and United Kingdom etc. The most common forms of payment used by the scammers are Cash App, Venmo, Zelle, Apple Pay and online gift cards such as iTunes, Google Play, Amazon and Steam Cards. The world of online financial sextortion and romance scams is changing fast. The global connection of technology literally puts third world criminals at your front door. We must talk to our kids (and seniors) so they understand how a globally connected world literally puts global predators and criminals right in their bedrooms and back pocket. And they won't look like you think they do.

The arid plains of the Anyar region in central Myanmar are the country's Bamar heartland where fierce opposition to the 2021 coup has left vast areas under the control of resistance groups. The villagers' response to savage military raids finds expression in their daily lives in many ways, from singing as they plant crops to performances by song and dance groups that raise funds for the revolutionary cause.

Episode #354: Saravanan, an advocate for Myanmar's alienated Tamil community, illuminates their rich, yet overlooked, history. He describes an ancient connection, starting around 300 BC, through trade between Tamil merchants and the Mon people. Those early Tamil migrants eventually assimilated completely, suggesting hidden Tamil ancestry in many Burmese today. The colonial era marked a huge turning point. From just 19 Indians living in Yangon in 1852, the rice boom led to a surge of cheap Indian labor, which totaled 1 million by 1931. This forced migration through indentured labor, akin to slavery, fueled Myanmar's economy but also bred resentment. Saravanan details how discriminatory terms like kalar became linked to darker skin, creating persistent color-based classism. Anti-Indian sentiment escalated, culminating in the violent Rangoon riots in the 1930s. Then post-1962, Ne Win's regime deported many Tamils and nationalized their assets, while also banning their language and culture outright. For those who remained, this caused deep self-suppression and alienation. While modern media offers cultural revitalization, political participation remains severely limited due to lack of citizenship and fear of retaliation. Saravanan emphasizes that for Tamils, neither dictatorship nor democracy has brought genuine inclusion. He advocates for an “alienated minority committee” to actively integrate these communities, recognizing their history and providing legal and social equality. “Society has to take a step back, look at us and say, ‘Okay, these people belong to us. They have to walk with us, because they are part of us,'” he says in closing.

Episode #353: Professor Lahra Smith, a political science professor specializing in East Africa at Georgetown University, argues that Myanmar's current struggles must be seen within a global framework of colonial legacies, using Sudan as a comparative case. While acknowledging contextual differences, Smith shows how both countries were shaped by British colonial rule that hardened ethnic divisions, created infrastructure disparities, and entrenched political inequalities. Sudan lies within Africa's so-called "coup belt," illustrating a broader dissatisfaction with post-colonial governance and foreign interference. Like Myanmar, Sudan has suffered from military coups that initially promised reform but quickly descended into new forms of repression. Smith discusses how colonial policies divided Sudanese society along racial and religious lines, just as British colonialism in Myanmar entrenched ethnic and religious hierarchies that still drive conflict today. Colonialism's infrastructural and missionary legacies further marginalized Sudan's peripheries, fostering grievances that exploded into civil wars and the eventual, troubled independence of South Sudan. Similarly, Myanmar's marginalized ethnic regions remain flashpoints for conflict. Smith stresses the need to move beyond thinking in terms of static land borders and recognize the deeper regional and cultural continuities that colonial boundaries disrupted. Ultimately, Smith emphasizes that identities and nations are constantly evolving, and that just drawing new lines on maps to replace the old, artificial, colonial ones will not solve the problems caused by the colonial experience. She stresses that genuine understanding requires recognizing this fluidity.

It's Monday, June 9th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Myanmar ceasefire extended to June 30 despite consistent violations The military junta ruling Myanmar announced last week that it would extend a temporary ceasefire, originally established in early April, to June 30, reports International Christian Concern. A massive earthquake struck the country in late March, killing 3,700 people and necessitating extensive relief work in hard-hit civilian areas.  Opposition militias agreed to the extended ceasefire, creating hope for improved humanitarian conditions in June despite regular junta violations of the ceasefire up to now. In the first three weeks of the ceasefire alone, the U.N. tracked at least 172 junta attacks, including airstrikes and artillery assaults.  The open-source research group Bellingcat documented that at least 22 villages were bombed by the junta in violation of the ceasefire agreement.  Senator Cruz wants June to be “Life” month because Roe was overturned Last Thursday, Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas introduced a resolution to designate June as Life month to honor the anniversary of the Supreme Court's monumental Dobbs decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022. CRUZ: “Three years ago, the Supreme Court made an historic advance in the cause of life in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.  The court overturned Roe v. Wade, a flawed decision that for nearly 50 years enshrined one of the most disturbing notions in our constitutional history: that the Constitution somehow protects the right to end the life of an unborn child. “The fact is, Roe had nothing to do with the Constitution. It was invented whole cloth. It was the product of judicial activism, nine justices legislating from the bench. And that dangerous path took decades to correct. “Thankfully, in 2022, Roe was overturned.  Dobbs did not impose any new policies from the bench. Instead, the task of protecting life falls where it always should have been -- not in the hands of unelected judges, but in the hands of the American people.” Canadian pastor imprisoned for objecting to Drag Queen Story Hour Calgary Pastor Derek Reimer, a street preacher who has had the courage to object to drag queen story hours for children in libraries, is back in jail in Alberta, Canada, reports the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The conviction came after Reimer confronted a library manager over a Drag Queen Story Hour event, reports Rebel News. Wearing a GoPro, he walked into the library, spoke to a few attendees, and eventually found the room where the event was taking place. He told the manager the program was "pervert grooming" and warned, "We're going to make your name public and hold you accountable." Security escorted him out peacefully. Later, he posted the video online — along with the manager's name, workplace, and the library phone number — calling on viewers to voice their opposition. Only one person reportedly contacted her, but the librarian testified that she became afraid of what might happen next. She shut down her social media accounts and said Reimer's words left her anxious and fearful. The 38-year-old pastor was arrested and accused of breaching the house arrest condition of his sentence for simply participating in a public rally before his own court appearance. Pastor Reimer, who has now been jailed unjustly at the Calgary Remand Centre for over a month, has been treated badly. The judicial officials have blocked all visitors from seeing him, even the ones who were pre-approved. The only ones allowed to visit Pastor Reimer are his wife, Mona, and their baby. Derek's lawyer, Andrew Mackenzie, hopes that media attention on Reimer's unfair treatment will lead to a more positive outcome. Concerned Christian friends have been gathering for a rally of support at the Remand Centre every Sunday afternoon at 4:30pm, protesting Pastor Reimer's incarceration and bail denial. Please pray for justice to be served on Pastor Reimer's next court date on Monday, June 23rd. On  June 5th, Pastor Reimer posted Psalm 138:7 on his Facebook page.  It says, “Though I am surrounded by troubles, [God] You will protect me from the anger of my enemies, You reach out Your hand and the power of Your right hand saves me.” Learn more or donate to his legal defense at SavePastorDerek.com. The American Miracle movie tells story of former slaves fighting British The American Miracle movie debuts tonight in 1,000 theaters across America for three days only! Based on Michael Medved's book by the same name, it tells the story of God's hand in the founding of the United States. TESTIMONIAL 1: “I thought it was extraordinary just to see the hand of God on the United States of America. It's absolutely undeniable! The schools are doing everything they can to erase our history. We have an opportunity and an obligation to share the true history of the country.” Cameron Arnett, a black Christian actor known for films by the Kendrick Brothers like The Forge and Overcomer, said this. ARNETT: “I play Peter Salem. He gets introduced to George Washington as a hero of the Battle of Bunker Hill. What I love about this kind of stuff is that we are now unearthing a slew of black heroes that we weren't fortunate enough to grow up with, but that our children will be able to grow up with, because now the stories are being told.” Pastor Darnell Harper of New Covenant Temple was amazed. HARPER: “One of the aspects that touched me a lot was the African-American experience in the founding of our nation and in the battles that we fought, how there was a spirit of unity that we don't hear a lot about today.” The enthusiasm for The American Miracle movie is contagious. TESTIMONIAL 2: “Something that I've learned in the film tonight is that we cannot underestimate how great our God is and how powerful He is and how much He does govern the affairs of men.” Indeed, Daniel 4:17 says, “The Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on Earth.” Go to www.AmericanMiracleMovie.com, watch the trailer, click on the Tickets tab, type in your zipcode, and purchase tickets for tonight, Tuesday or Wednesday since it's only in the theaters for three days. 5 reasons Diana in Glendale, Arizona likes The Worldview Diana Munday in Glendale, Arizona wrote me at Adam@TheWorldview.com.  She said “First, I know you and the founders to be followers of Jesus Christ and accountable to Him for what you read and write.

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – President Donald Trump's June 4 proclamation imposes a travel ban restricting entry from nations deemed security risks. Effective June 9, it bars immigrants from Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. Exemptions cover existing visa and green card holders, diplomats, refugees, and family reunification cases...

This week, President Trump reinstated a U.S. travel ban barring citizens of 12 countries from entering the U.S. Trump says the move was necessary to protect the country against “foreign terrorists” and other security threats. The countries included in this ban are Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. The ban will take effect starting next Monday at 12AM.Listen to WBZ NewsRadio on the NEW iHeart Radio app and be sure to set WBZ NewsRadio as your #1 preset!

Those banned include people from Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Haiti and Sudan. Citizens from another seven countries face travel restrictions. President Trump said the new rules were designed to protect Americans from dangerous foreign actors and to stop people overstaying their visas. We hear from Republican Congressman Clay Higgins, who supports the move, and ask American law professor Barbara McQuade about its rationale and legality. Also in the programme: as the bodies of two more hostages are recovered by the Israeli military in Gaza, we speak to the father of one hostage whose whereabouts are still unknown. And some new research that offers a glimmer of hope for an eventual cure for HIV.(Photo: President Trump speaks during a Summer soiree at the White House in Washington, DC, on 4 June 2025.

Discover Your Buddha Nature with Jack Kornfield, an online journey for reclaiming our dignity, compassion, and generosity, beginning June 2.“It says in the Bhagavad Gita, the essence is to act beautifully without attachment to the fruits of the actions. What it means is, you don't get to determine how it turns out, but you do get to plant your seeds of goodness. And as Thoreau says, ‘Convince me you have a seed there, and I'm prepared to expect miracles.' You get to plant the seeds, and eventually, in their own time, they bear fruit. That's not your job. Your job is to make a beautiful garden, to plant beautiful things, and to tend them.” – Jack KornfieldAbout Ocean Robbins:Ocean Robbins is an American entrepreneur and author, best known for his role as the co-founder of Food Revolution Network, Inc.

Supreme Court Greenlights Trump's Deportation Plan – The Court rules that President Trump can end humanitarian parole for over 500,000 migrants brought in under Biden's CBP One App system. This reverses a lower court ruling requiring case-by-case reviews and sets the stage for widespread deportations—and economic fallout for employers who hired parolees. Democrat Judges Undermining Deportation Efforts – From Boston to Phoenix to San Francisco, Democrat judges are blocking or delaying removals, whether it's dismissing “failure to register” charges or resisting legal tactics meant to expedite deportations. ICE and DOJ are developing workarounds, including surprise courthouse arrests. Adults Posing as High School Students Spark Outrage – A 24-year-old Venezuelan man enrolled as a sophomore in Ohio, and a 20-year-old in NYC attended school with official backing. Both cases reveal failures in Biden-era migrant vetting and reignite debate over ICE presence in schools. Iran Nuclear Deal at Risk as Trump Reconsiders Red Lines – Axios reports Trump may allow limited uranium enrichment in Iran. Israel is furious, especially after a UN watchdog confirms Tehran has enough material for nine bombs and was conducting secret nuclear work at multiple sites. Australia Exposes China's Debt Trap Diplomacy – 75 poor nations face $22B in debt repayments to Beijing this year. Bryan outlines how the U.S. could use covert ops and financial diplomacy to counter China's global leverage, especially in rare earth hotspots like Myanmar. Poland Elects Conservative President Amid Migration Backlash – Voters reject the liberal ruling party in favor of Karol Nawrocki, a nationalist backed by Donald Trump. His win mirrors growing European discontent with open borders, and echoes rising tensions in U.S. states like Colorado, where a migrant recently attacked a pro-Israel march.

Mexico is set to become the first country in the world where every single judge is elected by popular vote.
