Podcasts about National Guard

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by my good friend Lev Parnas, a Soviet-born businessman and former associate of Rudy Giuliani, who has also chosen to speak out against Donald Trump. In this explosive episode, Lev lays out a jaw-dropping theory: Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu may be coordinating a global power play with devastating consequences. We discuss the confusing conflict in Iran, Trump's manipulation of foreign policy for personal gain, his grip on the National Guard, the weaponization of ICE, and a disturbing network of loyalists tied to Russia. This episode is a warning about the erasure of truth and who profits when democracy breaks down.

The New Yorker staff writer Andrew Marantz joins Tyler Foggatt for another episode of “How Bad Is It?,” a monthly series that examines the health of American democracy. They discuss whether the President's recent strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities may threaten his “America first” coalition, how the threat of war may enable him to consolidate more power domestically, and whether Trump's use of the National Guard to quell protest in Los Angeles is truly undemocratic.This week's reading: “Zohran Mamdani's New York City Miracle,” by Eric Lach “Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's Declaration of Independence,” by Ruth Marcus “A.I.

More shadow docket news on this week's show: The Supreme Court's conservative majority blocked an order from a federal judge in Boston that had imposed due process requirements when the Trump administration tries to deport migrants to countries other than their countries of origin. As is often the case with shadow docket orders, the judges in the majority did not explain their reasoning, leaving the lower courts without clear guidance on what to do next: was the order blocked because the class of affected detainees was too broad, or for some other reason?Plus: an update on California's litigation over federalization of the National Guard, a look at the whistleblower allegations against now-federal-judicial-nominee Emil Bove, a look at the bail decision for Kilmar Abrego Garcia (who's likely to end up in ICE custody regardless), and a discussion of the Trump administration's decision (and Joe Biden's decision) not to assert executive privilege as the House Oversight Committee looks into theories about autopen use in Biden's administration.Go to serioustrouble.show to sign up for our newsletter and join the conversation.

This series of Voices of Student Success focuses on adult learners in higher education, the various challenges they face and successful support mechanisms to aid their retention and completion.   Over 820,000 undergraduates are connected to the U.S. military, including those who are actively serving or enlisted in the National Guard,  former service members and spouses or dependents of military servicemembers.  The University of Texas at San Antonio, located in Military City USA, serves over 5,000 military-affiliated students, including veterans, service members and their families, in a region that has the largest concentration of military bases in the country.  In this episode, Michael Logan, UTSA's senior director for veteran and military affairs and U.S. Marine Corps veteran, discusses how his institution supports military-affiliated students through their transition into higher ed and the role of community in student veteran retention.   Hosted by Inside Higher Ed Student Success Reporter Ashley Mowreader, this episode is sponsored by Grammarly.   Read a transcript of the podcast here. 

Trump has long expressed racism and vitriol toward immigrants, particularly those from Latin America. As he deploys the National Guard to Los Angeles to quash pro-immigrant protesters, it's important to remember that Latin America is still part of the Americas. To understand how we arrived at a moment where the right holds such a bitter and hateful view of our neighbors to the south, we need to look back at history, and at how the U.S. developed alongside the nations of Latin America. This week, Adam sits down with Pulitzer Prize winning Yale historian Greg Grandin, author of America, América: A New History of the New World, to discuss how we arrived at this critical moment and what hope we have for the future.

Just five months after being sworn in as president, Donald Trump has embroiled the U.S. in a shooting war in the Middle East, a trade war with our allies and neighbors, and a culture war with those who oppose his policies. Trump has deployed the National Guard and the U.S. Marines into the streets of a major American city over the objections of a mayor and a governor, and unleashed masked agents to snatch unsuspecting immigrants off the streets and ship them off to foreign prisons. This seemed like a good moment to check in with Rep. Becca Balint. Balint, D-Vt., was elected to Congress from Vermont in 2022 and is a member of the House Judiciary Committee and the Budget Committee. She serves on the Congressional Progressive Caucus as Vice Chair for New Members and as a Co-Chair of the Congressional Equality Caucus. She spoke to me on Tuesday, June 24, from her congressional office in Washington D.C. 

Donald Trump, without consulting Congress or United States allies, orders the military to bomb Iran, and then claims that Iran and Israel have reached a ceasefire. Military and intelligence services push back on Trump's claims that Iran's three nuclear sites have been "completely and totally obliterated." MAGA isolationists change their tone to avoid Trump's ire. Jon, Lovett, Tommy, and Dan react to all the latest, including reports that nuclear material may have been removed before the attacks, Iran's retaliatory strikes on an American military installation in Qatar, and Trump's new posts indicating he may be open to regime change. Then, the guys walk through Democrats' response to the attacks, the latest from Trump's ongoing National Guard deployment in Los Angeles, and a New York City mayoral primary that's both frustrating and exciting.

In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to deport immigrants to countries other than their homeland. In an excerpt from this week's Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the latest decision from the Court's notorious shadow docket.  In the full episode, Preet and Joyce break down:  – A judge's order releasing pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil from custody while his deportation case proceeds; – A ruling ordering the release of Salvadoran national Kilmar Abrego García while he awaits his criminal trial;  – A federal appeals court decision allowing President Trump to retain control of the National Guard in Los Angeles; and – The Supreme Court's recent decision in U.S. v. Skrmetti upholding a Tennessee ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors.  CAFE Insiders click HERE to listen to the full analysis. Not an Insider?

The United States entered the conflict between Israel and Iran this weekend after bombing three Iranian nuclear sites. Andrew and Mary start this week's episode here, discussing the scope of presidential war powers and the norms of international law following the strikes. After, they shift focus to immigration, zeroing in on a whistleblower complaint from a former DOJ lawyer against Principal Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove among others, as well as the releases of Mahmoud Khalil and Kilmar Abrego Garcia. And after a nod to the Supreme Court's decision on removing immigrants to countries other than their own, Mary and Andrew touch on the 9th Circuit decision allowing Trump to retain control of the California National Guard, and what happens next.Further reading: Here is the compliant from the Justice Department whistleblower (courtesy New York Times): Protected Whistleblower Disclosure of Erez Reuveni Regarding Violation of Laws, Rules & Regulations, Abuse of Authority, and Substantial and Specific Danger to Health and Safety at the Department of Justice and here is more on the dissent from the Supreme Court's recent decision: Supreme Court allows Trump to swiftly deport certain immigrants to 'third countries'Want to listen to this show without ads?

Judge IGNORED Mom's Desperate Pleas - The Travis Decker Family Tragedy Episode Description: In this powerful episode of Hidden Killers, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to dissect one of the most preventable family tragedies in recent memory. The Travis Decker case exposes the deadly consequences when judges dismiss a mother's desperate warnings about a dangerous father. Whitney Decker's pleas fell on deaf ears as the court granted her homeless, mentally ill ex-husband unsupervised access to their three daughters. Eric Faddis provides expert legal analysis on the "tremendous discretion" judges wield in family court, the outdated precedents that prioritize biological rights over child safety, and why there's virtually no accountability when judicial decisions turn deadly. We explore the red flags: Travis's PTSD and borderline personality disorder diagnoses, his refusal to take medication, taking the girls to a homeless shelter, and missing National Guard duties. This episode asks the hard questions: Why do courts lean so heavily on a 1970s study about parental rights? What can protective parents legally do when court orders endanger their children? How many more tragedies before the system changes? A crucial conversation about judicial reform, child protection, and the price of legal negligence.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica Levinson unpacks two pressing legal issues. First, she explores whether the President can legally bomb Iran, looking at the balance of war powers between Congress and the President, the War Powers Resolution, and recent historical precedents. Then, Jessica provides an update on the legal showdown between California Governor Newsom and the Trump administration over federalizing the National Guard, analyzing a recent Ninth Circuit decision and the role of the Posse Comitatus Act. Tune in as Jessica breaks down these timely constitutional questions and their real-world implications.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Presidential War Powers Are Limited—But Vague: Under Article 2 of the Constitution, the President can order military action in response to imminent threats or sudden attacks, but only Congress can declare war. The limits of what constitutes “imminent threat” or “war in the constitutional sense” are not clearly defined, leading to ongoing legal gray areas.Congressional Oversight Remains Weak: While laws like the War Powers Resolution were intended to check the President's power, in practice Congress often cedes authority, rarely using funding powers to halt military action even in constitutionally questionable situations.Judicial Review Is Highly Deferential: Courts are reluctant to second-guess military decisions, frequently relying on the political questions doctrine and issues of legal standing. This means even if constitutional boundaries are tested, legal recourse is rare.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

In this episode, the hosts discuss the recent military actions taken by President Trump against Iran, analyzing the implications of these strikes, the messaging surrounding them, and the potential for retaliation from Iran.

The United States is going to war in the Middle East again… maybe. President Donald Trump announced Saturday the U.S. had bombed three of Iran's main nuclear facilities, adding, “NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!” But while multiple members of the administration spent Sunday insisting the U.S. is not out for regime change, Trump later undermined them in another Truth Social post floating the idea. The extent of the damage inflicted on Iran's nuclear capabilities also remains unclear, after Israeli and U.S. officials walked back the president's claim Saturday that the U.S. had ‘totally obliterated' the country's enrichment facilities. Virginia Democratic Sen. Mark Warner, vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, talks about what's next for Congress and the U.S.And in headlines: Columbia University grad student Mahmoud Khalil was released from federal immigration custody, an appeals court sided with the White House over the deployment of National Guard troops in Los Angeles, and Harvard and the Trump administration are reportedly trying to work out their many differences.Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Today's Headlines: The U.S. launched military strikes on three of Iran's key nuclear sites—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan—this weekend, marking a major escalation in the Israel-Iran conflict. President Trump called the operation a “spectacular military success,” though Iran claimed it had already moved its enriched uranium, blunting the strike's long-term impact. Notably, senior Republicans and Israeli leadership were briefed beforehand—Democrats were not. In response, DHS issued a terrorism alert for a heightened threat environment this summer, citing potential cyberattacks and global protests. At the UN, Iran accused the U.S. of destroying diplomacy and Russia warned the strikes opened a “Pandora's box.” Meanwhile, Pakistan bizarrely announced it will recommend Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for allegedly mediating peace between India and Pakistan—something Indian officials firmly deny. In domestic news, courts issued a series of major rulings: a judge ordered the release of Palestinian grad student Mahmoud Khalil from federal detention, prompting a DHS appeal; Trump was granted continued control of California's National Guard amid immigration protests; and a Louisiana law requiring display of the Ten Commandments in schools was struck down as unconstitutional. Finally, HHS will end LGBTQ-specific services on the 988 suicide hotline by July 17 and Cybernews reported that 16 billion login credentials were leaked online in a massive data compilation.

Send us a textStrap in, because this Daily Drop drops bombs—literally. Jared's back from the San Diego Operator Training Summit and immediately diving into the nuclear circus known as Operation Midnight Hammer—the largest B-2 strike in U.S. history. We're talking 125+ aircraft, deception ops worthy of Hollywood, and a casual flex on Iran's nuclear ambitions. But don't worry, the Pentagon swears it's not “regime change.”Also in this episode:CENTCOM's tanker games, shady KC-135 logistics, and a DoD recruiting task force that somehow thinks legal and public affairs are your new talent magnets (spoiler: they're not).A Marine takes over the F-35 program, we slap “F-47” on our next-gen fighter because Trump said so, and someone in Oregon thinks they can tell the federal government what to do with the National Guard.Oh—and China's getting military secrets from broke Army NCOs. Cool. Cool cool cool.This one's loaded with hot takes, hard truths, and the usual blend of sarcasm and side-eye from the Ones Ready crew. Buckle up, buttercup.

The Trump Administration's immigration raids have cast a cloud of fear over communities across the state. They've also dealt a blow to small businesses and economic life, particularly in Los Angeles County. Reporter: Saul Gonzalez, The California Report The deployment of National Guard troops sent to Los Angeles by President Trump has been at the center of a see-sawing legal battle between California and the Trump Administration. For now, the soldiers are staying as the dispute is before a judge on Monday. Reporter: Marisa Lagos, KQED The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday dealt a blow to California's ability to set its own vehicle emissions standards. That will likely strengthen the fossil fuel industry's ability to challenge the state's energy policies and goals. Reporter: Manola Secaira, CapRadio Learn more about your ad choices.

Celso examine the influence of two rogue states whose rebellion against the United States and US-backed countries has serious consequences for international relations. Iran and North Korea have profited from illegal activities, such as the arming of terrorist organizations, in attempts to disrupt peace efforts in the Middle East and East Asia and to destabilize the rules-based order of the world. Bechtol and Celso uncover the origins of this decades-long alliance, consider elements that these two nation-states have in common, and explain how their relationship undermines neighboring regions. The authors draw from revealing interviews with Iranian and North Korean defectors as well as firsthand accounts from other sources, providing crucial additions to this body of research. While some scholars have compared and contrasted Iran and North Korea, few have delved into how this partnership works to achieve its far-reaching impact. By assessing key aspects of the Iran–North Korea nexus—including military, ideological, economic, and environmental forces—Rogue Allies investigates the link between two volatile states and the ensuing implications for global security. 11:15-11:30 2/4: Rogue Allies: The Strategic Partnership between Iran and North Korea Paperback – April 29, 2025 by Bruce Bechtol (Author), Anthony N.

SCOTUS.  NINTH CIRCUIT RULES THAT POTUS SOES HAVE AUTHORITY OF THE NATIONAL GUARD IN AN EMERGENCY RICHARD EPSTEIN, CIVITAS INSTITUTE..  1888

Let's talk about Trump, Newsom, the National guard, and appeals....

President Trump is weighing his options on how best to eliminate Iran's nuclear capabilities. The U.S. assessment is that Iran could have several nukes ready to go in a matter of weeks. Should the president order an attack, the belief is it would include unique U.S. capabilities that Israel does not have, including massive bunker buster bombs flown by B-2 bombers. General Jack Keane, a retired four-star general, the Chairman of the Institute for the Study of War, and FOX News Senior Strategic Analyst, discusses what the U.S. and Israel can do to destroy Iran's program and the risks of a broader war. Plus, Florida Republican Senator Ashley Moody weighs in on President Trump's immigration enforcement policies and the legal fight over his deployment of the National Guard to quell violent anti-ICE protests.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Trump can maintain control of the National Guard in California. The King County Housing Authority could be facing cuts from the federal government. Democrat Congressman Hank Johnson performed a shockingly bad anti-Trump version of Jimi Hendrix’s song “Hey Joe.” // Jason made a guest appearance on CNN and lived to tell the tale. The world waits to see if the United States will get involved in Iran. // The Oregon legislature invited a black drag show to perform at the opening ceremony of the legislative session. ‘The View’ is blaming Sunny Hostin for Kamala Harris’s election loss.

George and Sarah dig into Donald Trump's legal circus—his sociopathic impulses, his warped view of presidential power, and his team's nonstop efforts to delay accountability. From a Ninth Circuit procedural win on National Guard deployment, to recycled immunity claims, to the latest twists in the E. Jean Carroll case, Conway and Longwell explain why Trump's ego—not the law—drives it all.

Nice! Another victory for the president and this time in California courts to Gavin Newsom's behest.

Trump Learned the Bitter Lesson of 2020: Don't Let the Rioters Win Find the article at- https://stream.org/trump-learned-the-bitter-lesson-of-2020-dont-let-the-rioters-win/   Trump Learned the Bitter Lesson of 2020: Don't Let the Rioters Win By John Zmirak Published on June 12, 2025 As gangs of illegal aliens and radical activists attack ICE officers and now local police in the streets of Los Angeles, I'm reminded of the race riots of 2020, and the mistakes most of us made while they were happening. In case you've blotted those ugly memories from your mind, let's review what happened in the aftermath of the botched arrest of career criminal George Floyd:   The police officers involved were immediately pulled from duty, then quickly arrested and charged. The System was working. There was literally nothing to riot about, except the vague and tendentious claim that “systemic racism” was killing black Americans. The Marxist group Black Lives Matter used Floyd's accidental death as a bloody shirt to wave around, demanding (and getting) hundreds of millions of dollars from large corporations to spend however it wished (for instance, on fancy homes and salaries). Conservative pundits and churches adopted that organization's mantra and offered uncritical support — desperate to establish their “antiracist” bona fides and protect their reputations. A series of coordinated “protests” erupted across the country, demanding that governments defund the police. Over and over, these protests turned violent, devolving into riots that saw the looting of neighborhoods poor and rich alike. Our media gaslit us with reports that these events were “mostly peaceful,” even as fires lit by arsonists raged on camera in the background. In blue states like Minnesota and California, Democrat governors who were savagely enforcing COVID lockdowns allowed the rioters to run free — pulling police from the scene and refusing to use their National Guards to protect citizens and their property. This was the starkest example of anarcho-tyranny in U.S. history … until the January 6 fedsurrection, that is. People who sneered when black entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Herman Cain died of COVID after attending a Trump campaign event and insisted that in-person voting was too dangerous to be allowed defended the riots publicly from the charge that they were “superspreader events.” Their excuse? “Racism is a threat to public health.” Trump did not federalize the National Guard in those rogue states to impose law and order. Like many of his supporters, and likely the advisors who convinced him to remain inert, I reasoned, “Let the blue cities burn. We'll make sure the federal government doesn't pay to rebuild them. The Left is trying to trap Trump into overreacting by using force in the hope that civilians will suffer and he will look like the dictator they've been calling him since Election Night 2016.” I now realize Step 6 was a huge mistake, as I'm sure Trump and his team had the chance to reflect on during the four years of lawfare and chaos they all endured under The Secret Committee Formerly Known As Joe Biden.   Now, we need to analyze why this is true so we can give full-throated support to restoring the rule of law today.   Abandoning Territory to Marxist Gangs Is Wrong Donald Trump is president of the entire United States, and he works for every American. That includes law-abiding citizens in blue states and cities who might not support mayors and governors committed to flouting U.S. laws on immigration, citizenship, and public order. Trump represents the harried, hunted police who work in Los Angeles and the taxpayers forced to fund the health care, education, and even transgender treatments of millions of illegal aliens the Biden regime let in.   We're supposed to love our neighbor. At minimum that includes our fellow Americans — even those deluded enough to believe that we owe citizenship and welfare payments to foreigners who broke into our national home. Just as we shouldn't hand out free heroin to addicts and shrug at the thought that they might OD, we shouldn't hand anarchy to Californians and Minnesotans, even if it's what they say they want. “Stinks to be you” isn't a New Testament maxim.   When Moderation Looks Like Weakness, It Is Weakness Letting blue cities burn or sink in their own squalor sounds tempting. However, it's not just a crime: it's a blunder, as political philosopher Yoram Hazony points out.   The spectacle of U.S. cities roiling with chaos, falling into the hands of Leftist mobs waving foreign flags, makes America look weak and vulnerable in the eyes of its foreign enemies. Furthermore, it makes any president who presides over it seem like a wounded, crippled giant. That was true in 2020, and it's even truer today — when the riots are aimed not at some nebulous, made-up bogeyman like “systemic racism” or “whiteness,” but directly at the law enforcement policies that got Trump elected and are, rightly, very popular: mass repatriation of blatantly illegal aliens.   These riots are aimed at Trump as a leader and his voters as citizens. They are armed, organized efforts to deprive the U.S. government of its legitimate monopoly on violence in large swathes of its territory. If Trump isn't willing to take every legal, constitutional measure to crush them and punish the perpetrators, he might as well resign right now and flee with his family into exile like the former Shah of Iran. Of course, that would leave all of us under a revolutionary tyranny every bit as ugly as Iran's.   Mobs Follow the Strong and Scorn the Weak It's a sad fact of fallen human nature: A high percentage of people don't join causes or adopt opinions because of rational argumentation, or even moral sentiments. People flock to the strong and steadfast, and naturally feel contempt for those who lack the courage of their convictions.   One of the main reasons that George Washington became first a national hero, then our leader in the fight for independence, was his obvious personal fearlessness. Bullets whizzed past him, shot through his hat and even his coat, and he was unperturbed. By contrast, the rival General Horatio Gates who sought to replace Washington at the head of the Continental Army disgraced himself by fleeing a 1780 military defeat at Camden, S.C., leaving his beaten troops behind. Trump can't afford to do the same today.   Please Support The Stream: Equipping Christians to Think Clearly About the Political, Economic, and Moral Issues of Our Day. Even thugs who stand for evil ideas can gather a following for their bravery. In their case, it's the gumption of bullies, and attracts other would-be bullies. But that's how warlords have triumphed all too often for millennia.   The thugs of illegal alien mobs, backed by the bullies in power in cities like Los Angeles, are counting on decent people to hide in their homes and on Trump to hide in the White House. We cannot let these lawless, unpatriotic, un-American mobs raise foreign flags over our cities. There's a word for that: It's “surrender.”   We didn't vote for a white flag, but for the man who stood tall while bleeding and shouted, “Fight, fight, fight!” -----------------------------------------------------------------------     John Zmirak is a senior editor at The Stream and author or coauthor of 14 books, including The Politically Incorrect Guide to Immigration and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism.
