Paul Dragu is senior editor at The New American. He is an award-winning reporter and host of The New American Daily. He is writer of Defector: A True Story of Tyranny, Liberty and Purpose. As Jim noted early in the broadcast, many of us recognize that America has been in decline for many years. The size of government, regulations, federal control over the population, spending, the cost of goods/services and other facets have increased. Then there's the capitulation to the ideas of world government-related entities. There's the weaponization of the Justice Department, the escalation of the LGBTQ+ agenda and DEI. The noose has also been tightening on our vast energy resources. This course simply isn't sustainable. So on November 5th, 2024, the majority of the nation spoke in favor of changing this scenario. Paul has just released an article expressing this titled: Rebirth of the Nation: How to Restore America.In this interview, Paul begins with an honest assessment of the first Trump administration where he explains how Trump had some individuals around him who didn't share the 'America First' agenda. He cited people such as former U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and former National Security Advisor General H.R. McMaster. There were even people in the White House who were writing op ed pieces in the New York Times saying, "I am the resistance!" Now that we have a new Trump administration, the hope is that he's learned from his earlier mistakes. However, there's still much that needs to be changed. Listen in as Paul discusses other factors including:The fall of the legacy media.The need of an American renaissance/rebirth of policies.

For decades, diaspora Hindus have looked to American Jews as role models for attaining political power in the United States. Hindu Americans have established political groups fashioned after AIPAC, the Anti-Defamation League, and the American Jewish Committee; these organizations have worked to advance India's economic and security interests much as their Jewish counterparts have protected Israel's. Now, as India draws scrutiny for its worsening human rights record under far-right Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Hindu nationalist groups in the US are once again looking to their Jewish allies. This time, they're modeling their efforts on the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, which casts certain criticism of Israel as anti-Jewish hatred. A new investigation by Jewish Currents news editor Aparna Gopalan shows how Hindu nationalists are promulgating a concept of “Hinduphobia” that equates opposition to Hindu nationalism with anti-Hindu bigotry. On this week's episode of On the Nose, Gopalan speaks with Jewish Currents executive editor Nora Caplan-Bricker and Middle East Eye senior reporter Azad Essa about Hinduphobia, the India–Israel alliance, and the potential for the hasbara playbook to be followed by ethnonationalist movements worldwide.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).” Articles Mentioned and Further Reading“The Hindu Nationalists Using the Pro-Israel Playbook,” Aparna Gopalan, Jewish Currents “The US Rolls Out the Red Carpet For Modi,” Aparna Gopalan, Jewish Currents“How Modi uses yoga to whitewash India's crimes,” Azad Essa, Middle East EyeHostile Homelands: The New Alliance Between India and Israel by Azad Essa“The Settler-Colonialist Alliance of India and Israel,” Deeksha Udupa, The Nation“How the Hindus Became Jews: American Racism After 9/11,” Vijay Prashad, South Atlantic Quarterly“What FBI data about anti-Hindu hate crimes in the US reveals about fears of ‘Hinduphobia,'” Raju Rajagopal, Scroll.in“A Gandhi statue is toppled in Queens, but was it a hate crime?” Arun Venugopal, GothamistDiasporic Desires: Making Hindus & the Cultivation of Longing in the United States and Beyond by Shana Sippy (forthcoming from New York

Scaling UP! Nation, you know I love answering your questions, and today's listener is a new water treater who submitted a few, but the main theme is “How do you diagnose when something is wrong?” What tests should you run? What if there is a leak? What if your customer is planning to install a piece of new equipment? What should you be checking the equipment for? What should you be asking your customer about when you see them? Well, Scaling UP Nation, those are just some of the questions I answer in this episode. So grab your pen and paper because this episode is packed with helpful information and you'll want to take notes. Bottom line: I am going to share my 4 Steps to diagnose if something is wrong. Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client. -Trace Timestamps: Celebrating the Scaling UP! H2O podcast's milestones [01:15] Thinking On Water With James [04:50] Events in Industrial Water Treatment [06:00] Pinks And Blues Questions from the Nation: How to diagnose when something is wrong? [09:20] Step 1: Catch up with the customer [10:15] Step 2: Find out as much information as you can from the equipment [12:30] Step 3: Troubleshooting [20:04] Step 4: Open your Test Kit and run the appropriate tests [29:05] Better information allows us to make better decisions [37:04] Thinking On Water With James: In this week's episode, we're thinking about nitrite corrosion inhibition. How does nitrite inhibit corrosion? Does oxygen have a role? What if nitrite is underfed? What could happen and why? What if nitrite is overfed. What could happen and why? How might microbiological activity impact nitrite levels and corrosion? Protecting a water system against corrosion is more than just running pinks and blues. It's about understanding the chemistry behind the scenes and what factors may positively and negatively impact it. Take this week to think about nitrite and how it inhibits corrosion. Quotes: “Help your customers make better decisions by giving them more information.” - Trace Blackmore “In our day-to-day life in the water treatment industry, it is very easy to skip step 1 (speaking with the customer) and finding out things that are going to make things faster in the long run.” - Trace Blackmore “Put your test kit down and have a conversation with your equipment before you start running tests.” - Trace Blackmore “We want our customers to know that we are not just looking at the things that we are directly responsible for, we're actually the mouthpiece, we are the faithful translator of that equipment to people..” - Trace Blackmore “Soot is more insultative than scale, so let your customer know.” - Trace Blackmore “There are water treaters that go straight for their tests, and they blindly start testing. You should have an idea of every value that you are going to get as a result of something you test before you test it.” - Trace Blackmore “Make sure all your meters are clean and calibrated.” - Trace Blackmore “There are so many things that we do as industrial water treaters that are so far above and beyond just running pinks and blues.” - Trace Blackmore “If the results are exactly what we think they are, then we have guaranteed that we know what's going on with the system.” - Trace Blackmore “We have some incredible products out there that make our life easier, but I don't think they should be replacing the things that we need to know about the systems themselves.” - Trace Blackmore “You need to test for all the actives that are in your product. If you don't know your product well enough to know all the actives, then ask people you work with to show you the technical data sheet.” - Trace Blackmore “If you do not know or have an idea of what the result of the test is then you have not yet run, you probably don't need to run it.” - Trace Blackmore Connect with Scaling UP H2O: Email: corrine@blackmore-enterprises.com (podcast producer) Submit a show idea: Submit a Show Idea Trace Blackmore on LinkedIn: in/traceblackmore/ Scaling UP!

The intersection of public health and data science can be controversial. How much do we value human life? Can we ever put a dollar sign on it, and what factors into that sum? These questions and more are tackled in today's episode with Howard Friedman.Howard Friedman teaches at Columbia University at the School of Public Health and The Data Science Institute. He is also the author of Ultimate Price: The Value We Place On Life.Listen as he and Greg discuss the morality of cases like the 9/11 compensation fund, OJ Simpson,5 and the tradeoffs that lead to these difficult decisions.Episode Quotes:What a monetary value on human life says:Some human beings, as it turns out, are valued at nothing. Whereas others, many, many millions. And you'll see this in the corporate world as well. The incredible range of compensation, depending on who was the victim. How do we get these numbers, value of a life:They're trying to simulate a world in which that person is no longer there and trying to estimate what is the economic impact on the family. And that's why they look at things like income. They do look at this question of dependents and you know, how many people were relying on that person's income.And then you start seeing the dotted-line calculation between that and how people start to think about life insurance. And the reason why is when you look into your life insurance, you start thinking about what is my value, what is my replacement value? If I'm not around, how much money will my family need in order to have the lifestyle they expect or simply to replace the income I'm earning.How the media adds value to certain lives:This is very much the case. And this is the America that we have to understand we live in. And the implications of it really are that some lives are more valued and more protected than others. They go hand in hand. That level of interest that comes from the media and the public, as a result, drives the allocation of resources. So these are true examples and measures.Show Links:Guest Profile:Faculty Profile at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public HealthHoward Friedman's WebsiteHoward Friedman on LinkedinHoward Friedman on TwitterHoward Friedman on Talks at GoogleHis Work:Howard Friedman on Google ScholarUltimate Price: The Value We Place on LifeThe Measure of a Nation: How to Regain America's Competitive Edge and Boost Our Global Standing
In music it is called Purple Syrup, Sizzerp, or Lean. At the dope house it is called liquid codeine. At the doctor's office it is called Codeine with Promethazine. Regardless of where you get it, it is more popular today than ever before. In this episode I examine Codeine and Promethazine syrup: what it is, what it does, why it is so popular, and why, like most drugs, the war on drugs has made it much more dangerous than it would otherwise be. And I talk about the power of media to teach us things we don't realize we are learning, especially when it comes to things or places we are not familiar with. To read more about D.W.

Many books on film discuss the artistic aspects of movies, often as they relate to social and political events that affected the filmmakers. In his book The Birth of a Nation: How a Legendary Filmmaker and a Crusading Editor Reignited America's Civil War (PublicAffairs, 2014), journalist/professor Dick Lehr uses a controversial film to tell a bigger story about one of the first civil rights leaders of the 20th century. Lehr presents a fascinating account of how African American journalist Monroe Trotter tried to get D. W. Griffith's landmark film banned in Boston. He describes how the film's release was an important aspect about how Trotter became a key participant in the nascent civil rights movement. Learn more about your ad choices.
