There's a spirit that's sweeping across America. A growing desire for change. The system is broken. You know, we know it. And it's kind of starting to feel like everybody knows it. So when the DOGE axe was going to come down on his group of rangers, he started planning. And even though he was later protected from being fired because he was a veteran, the fear and uncertainty didn't sit with him. Retired Air Force Colonel Brian Bengs (@BrianBengs) is setting out to bring an independent voice to Washington and to protect the place he calls home. He ran before, and was urged to run as a Democrat. You'll hear how he regrets that move and how it closes doors in the states where Democrats can't win. States like South Dakota where he lives. States like Nebraska where Dan Osborn made his run at it. And in red states nationwide.  It's the second conversation in our “2025 Meet The Independent Candidates” series. And it's one you don't want to miss. It's a refreshing dose of independence and inspiration you probably need after all of the other crazy news of the last week. And we cover all of that too. Because if it's related to National Security and veterans, we've got you covered. From a chance for peace in Ukraine to Trump's absurdly corrupt new plane, the hits keep coming. And your host Paul Rieckhoff is there to cover it all—while taking you on a walk through Lower Manhattan in the rain. Including a stop the September 11th Memorial. No other podcast is like this.  There's a movement sweeping across the heartland of America, and it ain't red or blue. It's independent.  Welcome to Independent Americans Episode 334. -Be sure to watch and subscribe on our YouTube page here. -Check out Brian Bengs campaign website here. -Get extra content, connect with guests, attend exclusive events, get merch discounts and support this critical show that speaks truth to power by joining our IA community on Patreon.  -NEW!

In this episode, Dave Spencer, Kurt Bardella, and Ashley Davis dive into Trump's controversial tariff policies and their impact on international trade. They explore the implications of recent trade deals, discuss the complex relationship with China, and examine the developing situation with Iran. The conversation provides insights into how these decisions might affect the American economy and global relationships.

Trump faces backlash after accepting a $400 million luxury jet from Qatar. Critics raise national security concerns and question foreign influence, while Trump defends the move as a cost-saving gesture. The panel debates whether this is smart diplomacy or a dangerous precedent—and what Qatar really wants in return.

Welcome to episode #983 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Matthew Weinzierl is not just thinking about the future of the economy - he's thinking about the economy of the final frontier. As a professor at Harvard Business School and a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, Matt brings the analytical rigor of economic policy to a space sector that's shifting from sci-fi to IPO. In our conversation, we unpack the big thesis behind his new book Space To Grow - Unlocking The Final Economic Frontier(co-authored with Mehak Sarang Rousseau), which reframes space as something more than spectacle or science - it's a place where real economic value is being created right now. This isn't about day trips to orbit or Mars hotels (not yet). It's about the role of market forces, national security, broadband access, sustainability, microgravity manufacturing, and the essential debate between centralized control and decentralized innovation. Matt has built a career studying tax policy and the philosophical underpinnings of economic systems, and now he's applying that lens to a commercial space industry that's still defining its rules. We talk about SpaceX's dominance and what it means for competition, the outdated frameworks of international space law, and why economists are uniquely suited to help structure the future of space activity. We also explore the symbolic and practical value of human exploration, and how figures like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos shape the public's understanding of what's possible (and what might be hype). What makes Matt so compelling is his clarity... he doesn't get swept up in the cosmic dreams without asking who benefits, who governs, and what kind of economic system we're building in orbit and beyond. If you've been curious about the real forces shaping the space economy - and what it might mean for Earth - this episode is a must-listen. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 58:47.

This week is mainly devoted to listener questions and feedback. First, Ralph answers some of the questions you have submitted over the past few weeks. Then we invite back last week's guest, Erica Payne, of Patriotic Millionaires, to respond to your very thoughtful comments on the interview we did with that group's plan for preserving democracy by taxing the rich. Plus, Ralph highlights the outrages of the Trump/Musk assault on government programs that help ordinary people.Erica Payne is the founder and president of Patriotic Millionaires, an organization of high-net-worth individuals that aims to restructure America's political economy to suit the needs of all Americans. Their work includes advocating for a highly progressive tax system, a livable minimum wage, and equal political representation for all citizens. She is the co-author, with Morris Pearl, of Tax the Rich: How Lies, Loopholes and Lobbyists Make the Rich Even Richer.The real reason for taxation is democracy protection.Erica PayneI think the question is not: do we need to fix the estate tax? The question is: what is the best, most defensible mechanism through which you can tax the transfer of wealth from one generation to the other in order to protect American democracy from dynastic wealth—that is sufficient that you find five generations from now Elon Musk's kid isn't spending as much money on these elections as their great great great great great granddaddy is.Erica PayneAusterity applied at a federal level to a society that is in distress does the exact opposite of what the proponents of austerity are saying it should do. The tightening of the belt actually cuts off the circulation of the society.Erica PayneNews 5/9/251. While the Catholic clergy convene in Rome for the Papal Conclave, Pope Francis graces the world with one final gift. Vatican News reports, “His popemobile, the very vehicle from which he waved and was close to millions of faithful all around the world, is being transformed into a mobile health unit for the children of Gaza.” This article states this was Francis' “final wish,” and quotes his refrain that “Children are not numbers. They are faces. Names. Stories. And each one is sacred.” The vehicle is reportedly being outfitted with equipment for “diagnosis, examination, and treatment – including rapid tests for infections, diagnostic instruments, vaccines, suture kits, and other life-saving supplies,” and it will be staffed by doctors and medics. Yet, given Israel's track record for the destruction of medical facilities in Gaza, it is unclear how long this mobile health unit itself will survive.2. In more distressing news from Gaza, CNN reports that “A Gaza-bound activist aid ship [part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition] caught fire and issued an SOS, after what its organizers claimed was an Israeli drone attack off the coast of Malta…[on] Friday.” Per CNN, the ship was due to make port in Malta and pick up “a large contingent of activists” there before departing for Gaza. These included environmental activist Greta Thunberg and retired US Army Colonel Mary Ann Wright. Thunberg said this flotilla “is one of many attempts to open up a humanitarian corridor and…[try] to break Israel's illegal siege on Gaza,” adding “for two months now, not a single bottle of water has entered Gaza…it's a systematic starvation of 2 million people.” The United Nations World Food Programme said this week “its warehouses are…empty; soup kitchens that are still running are severely rationing their last stocks; and what little food remains in Gaza's markets is being sold for exorbitant prices that most cannot afford.”3. Pro-Palestine activists scored a major victory in Michigan this week. The Guardian reports, “Michigan's attorney general, Dana Nessel, announced on Monday that she was dropping all charges against seven pro-[Palestine] demonstrators arrested last May at a University of Michigan encampment.” As this report notes, “The announcement came just moments before the judge was to decide on a defense motion to disqualify Nessel's office over alleged bias.” The Guardian itself published a major report “detailing Nessel's extensive personal, financial and political connections to university regents calling for the activists to be prosecuted,” last October. Defense attorney Amir Makled is quoted saying “This was a case of selective prosecution…rooted in bias, not in public safety issues…We're hoping this sends a message to other institutions locally and nationally that protest is not a crime, and dissent is not disorder.”4. In another legal victory, Prem Thakker reported on May 6th that “A federal court has [denied] the Trump administration's attempt to move Mahmoud Khalil's case…out of New Jersey.” The government attempted to move the venue to Louisiana, where they have Khalil detained. A press release by the ACLU, their New York and New Jersey affiliates, and the Center for Constitutional Rights states, “It is the fundamental job of the judiciary to stand up to…government manipulation of our basic rights. We hope the court's order sends a strong message to other courts around the country facing government attempts to shop for favorable jurisdictions by moving people detained on unconstitutional immigration charges around and making it difficult or impossible for their lawyers to know where to seek their immediate release.”5. Trump has released his budget for Fiscal Year 2026. This budget cuts nondefense spending by 23%, per Reuters, while allocating 75% of discretionary spending to military and police, per Stephen Semler of the Cost of War Project. This includes a 13% increase in military spending that tips the Pentagon budget over $1 trillion for the first time. So much for increasing government efficiency.6. At the same time, this country's infrastructure and transportation safety agencies continue to crumble. Just this week, NPR reported “Hundreds of flight delays and cancellations…[hit]… Newark Liberty International Airport at once: [due to] air traffic controller staffing shortages, aging technology, bad weather and the closure of one of the airport's busiest runways.” The air traffic controller staffing shortages, a chronic issue, has been compounded in recent months by the mass layoffs initiated by the Trump administration. NBC News reports that one air traffic controller handling Newark airspace said, “Don't fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs.”7. It might be nice to have competent, energetic leadership among the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee right about now. Unfortunately, the party opted to install 75-year-old, cancer-ridden Gerry Connolly to serve as Ranking Member on that committee instead of AOC. Now, Axios reports Connolly is stepping down from this position after just four months and will not seek reelection to his seat in Congress, citing his declining health. AOC, once-bitten, has opted not to seek the position a second time, the Hill reports. Instead, the top contenders emerging to fill Conolly's seat are Stephen Lynch, a 70-year-old Congressman who won his seat in 2001 and is currently filling Conolly's role on an interim basis, and Eleanor Holmes-Norton, the non-voting delegate representing Washington D.C. Norton is the most senior Democrat on the committee at 87-years-old, having assumed office in 1991.8. Another ghost is coming back to haunt the Democrats: former Senator Bob Menendez. The New Jersey Globe reports, “The New Jersey Attorney General's office will seek a court order to permanently bar…Menendez from ever holding public employment in the state following his conviction on federal corruption charges last year.” Critically if a Superior Court judge approves the action, Menendez could lose his state pension. Menendez still draws over $1,000 per month from his New Jersey public employee pension, even after being sentenced to 11 years in prison for corruption last July. More recently, Menendez has sought to cozy up to Trump in an effort to obtain a pardon. So far, no dice.9. In some positive news, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum continues an unbelievable run. Back in April, KJZZ reported that Mexico will invest nearly $3 billion in “food sovereignty,” to “produce more staples like corn, beans and rice in Mexico over the next five years.” This money will be directed at small and medium sized farms in Mexico and is intended to anchor both the rural economy and the nation's food supply amidst the growing uncertainty of trade with the United States vis a vis Trump's erratic trade policy. Then, after May Day, Labor Minister Marath Bolaños said that “before the end of President Claudia Sheinbaum's term…the government would gradually install a…40-hour workweek,” Mexico News Daily reports. The standard workweek in Mexico currently sits at 48 hours. As this report notes, the 40-hour workweek is Number 60 on Sheinbaum's list of 100 promises. Americans can only dream of having a government that even makes that many promises, let alone keeps them. Perhaps the most impressive of Sheinbaum's recent actions however is her recent rejection of Trump's attempt to strongarm her into allowing American troops to enter Mexico. Democracy Now! reports Sheinbaum told the American president, “The territory is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is not for sale.”10. Finally, on the other end of the presidential spectrum, there's Trump furiously posting on Truth Social about the “Movie Industry in America…DYING a very fast death,” deeming that this is “a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat,” and threatening a “100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.” Obviously, this screed is basically nonsensical and it remains to be seen what will actually come of this threat, but what is notable is the response from organized labor. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) issued a statement threading the needle between supporting Trump's effort to “return and maintain U.S. film and television jobs, while not…harming the industry overall.” On the other hand, the Teamsters – led by Sean O'Brien who has tied himself to Trump more and more since he spoke at the 2024 RNC – issued a statement “thank[ing] President Trump for boldly supporting good union jobs when others have turned their heads.” Would such a policy truly revitalize the workforce of the American entertainment industry? We'll have to wait for the sequel to find out.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Here's what we do know:On Tuesday, during a press availability in the Oval Office of the White House, President Donald Trump told reporters that the total number of living hostages in Gaza dropped from 24 to 21. “As of today, it's 21. Three have died.”, he said. Israel maintains that officially, the list of living hostages remains 24. Trump also said that the US would stop bombing Yemen's Houthis after the Iran-backed group had agreed to stop interrupting important shipping lanes in the Middle East. The announcement did not mention the Houthi attacks on Israel, including a missile that hit Ben Gurion international airport on Saturday, to which Israel responded with a crippling attack on Yemen's international airport in Sanaa. Following Trump's announcement, a spokesman for the Houthis pledged that the strikes on Israel would continue. On Thursday, sources told Reuters that the United States is no longer demanding Saudi Arabia normalize ties with Israel as a condition for developing its nuclear program - a major concession by Washington. Senator Lindsey Graham says he opposes any pact with the Saudis that excludes normalization with Jewish state. Earlier in the week, on Monday, Israel's security cabinet authorized plans for the widening of the Gaza invasion, which if taken to its logical conclusion, meaning Hamas refuses to surrender and release the hostages – could result in an Israeli reoccupation of Gaza and reestablishing some permanent presence there.It is unclear at this point if this military plan is going to be implemented, or if it is used as leverage on Hamas as a negotiating tactic. That said, Finance Minister Betzalel Smotrich said on Monday that “We are finally going to occupy the Gaza Strip. We will stop being afraid of the word' occupation.” To unpack what this all means, we are joined by Lahav Harkov, Senior Political Correspondent for Jewish Insider.

Recorded on May 7, 2025 and January 16, 2025 https://youtu.be/AsKA7RStov4 Episode 131 of the PetroNerds podcast is a true PetroNerds special. This podcast is the lecture Trisha Curtis gave at the Eisenhower School for National Security and Resource Strategy on January 23, 2025. In this lecture Trisha explains that energy is power, literally and figuratively, and she spends time putting energy in the context of geopolitics getting into the weeds on the US, China, and Russia. This introduction is special in and of itself. Trisha explains what is happening in oil prices and why they are oversold and gets into OPEC output increases and why this actually makes sense right now. In this heavy hitting geopolitical lecture Trisha covers Iran, Saudi Arabia, demand for power generation, energy realities and geopolitics, coal, natural gas, and oil, and net zero being a fantasy. She discusses US energy leverage and dominance that has not been leaned into and used, energy implications for auto manufacturing and military capacity, ammunition supply, implications for the global economy of traditional fuels, getting real on the energy transition, lack of information in the market place and the lack of appropriately evaluating traditional fuels. Trisha also covers the onerous regulations and aggressive green policies in Europe and their lack of participation in AI, their deindustrialization, and their inability to defend themselves. Trisha gets into oil prices, the health of the US and global economy, the role of natural gas prices and the impact to hurting US manufacturing, resiliency of US shale, natural gas prices and US oil and gas production, OPEC spare capacity and global spare capacity and Saudi production. She further discusses Germany's unhealthy economy, stagflation, high electricity prices, rising unemployment, and increasing manufacturing capacity sitting idle, and their exposure to China, the SPR and the actual use cases for it and selling off, Ford and CATL, climate change and the techolongs of wind, solar, and batteries in extreme temperatures, She covers the importance of infrastructure and pipelines, the US leaving the Paris Climate Accords, the US exporting more LNG and increasing global energy security, Chinese auto dumping and undercutting global manufacturing, and China's fictitious GDP growth. Trisha spends a lot of time in the Q&A talking about electricity, wind and solar, Chinese coal and competition, the US SPR and refilling it, US shale and execution during and coming out of COVID, longer laterals and less wells and less rigs, global primary energy consumption, AI and electricity demand, Chris Wright, LNG, and America being open for business.

Last week, the "Understanding UAP: Science, National Security & Innovation" event was held in Washington, D.C., in collaboration with the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and included members of Congress and leading UAP experts. Luis Elizando, a UFO whistleblower, presented a peculiar image of a flying craft taken over the Four Corners area, close to the alleged alien underground base in Dulce, NM. Additionally, Dr. Hal Puthoff, who worked on the government's psychic spy and UFO research programs, revealed the US military has recovered more than 10 crashed UFOs since the 1940s. Is our government feigning real disclosure to hide advanced technology and alien life above and below us?

On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced that he will authorize the Department of Commerce and the United States Trade Representative to institute a 100% tariff on movies produced in foreign countries. “Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated. This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda!,” Trump posted to Truth Social. “WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!”Ad-free podcasts are here!Many listeners have been asking for an ad-free version of this podcast that they could subscribe to — and we finally launched it.

Israeli Minister of National Security and supporter of extremist, far-right policies Itamar Ben-Gvir visited the United States in late April. From the time he got off his plane in Florida and throughout events in New Haven, CT, New York City and Washington, DC, he was met with opposition, protest and resistance. Even some Zionist groups opposed his visit, which included stops at Trump's Mar-A-Lago, a Jewish society tied to Yale university, the halls of Congress, and a fundraiser in New York. Ben-Gvir is a Kahanist, a follower of the rabbi Meir Kahane who supported and encouraged and was convicted of acts of terrorism in both Israel and the United States. He famously has a portrait of Baruch Goldstein in his living room, who killed 29 Palestinians in Hebron in 1994, and he repeats the calls of Goldstein and Kahane to expel all Palestinians from their homeland.And following in those ideological footsteps, Israel's government announced this week that it plans to seize Gaza entirely for the first time since it was forced to withdraw in 2005.Support the show

Hollywood studios are melting down over the President's announcement that he's gonna tax foreign film productions a 100% tariff. Nobody seems to know the hows and the whys, and even the White House has backed off -- for now. Could Hollywood studios nuke movies in the pipeline to avoid paying the piper?

Before “Don't Ask, Don't Tell” and rainbow capitalism, there was the Lavender Scare—a government-backed witch hunt targeting LGBTQ+ federal employees as threats to national security. In this episode, we uncover how Cold War paranoia collided with homophobia, turning queerness into a crime of patriotism. From surveillance and mass firings to one man's fight that helped spark a movement, we trace the eerie parallels between 1950s propaganda and today's anti-trans legislation and drag bans. History doesn't repeat—it legislates.

What every man MUST know - But doesn't! With Dr. Rachel Taylor (Part 2) The Black Spy Podcast, Season 20, Episode 0002   In this week's, episode 2, of The Black Spy Podcast, regarding the male menopause Dr. Rachel Taylor and Carlton King delve into this often-overlooked subject of the male menopause, or andropause. As with last week the two explain why their forthcoming book on the issue, should be read by all men and their life partners as the male of our species reaches their 4 decade. Their book highlights how the Andropause, characterized by a gradual decline in testosterone levels, can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, mood swings, reduced libido, and cognitive changes. However, despite its significant impact on men's health, male menopause remains under-discussed in both media and society. While female menopause has garnered increasing attention and support, including workplace policies and public health initiatives, the male menopause is frequently dismissed or misunderstood. The podcast discusses how this disparity may stem from societal expectations that men should remain stoic and unaffected by aging, leading many to suffer in silence. In these episodes Dr Rachel and Carlton go on to discuss that the implications of unaddressed male menopause are particularly concerning when considering elderly male leaders in positions of power. Symptoms such as impaired decision-making, irritability, and decreased energy levels can affect leadership capabilities, potentially leading to detrimental outcomes in governance and policy-making. The gradual nature of testosterone decline means these changes can go unnoticed, further exacerbating the issue. Dr. Taylor and King emphasize the need for increased awareness and open dialogue about male menopause. They advocate for comprehensive research and support systems to address this condition, highlighting the importance of recognizing andropause as a legitimate health concern. By shedding light on this topic, their book and these episodes call for a reevaluation of how society perceives and supports men's health as they age. In summary, The Black Spy Podcast brings critical attention to issues of the male menopause, challenging societal norms and advocating for greater recognition and support for aging men. The discussion underscores the potential risks of neglecting this issue, particularly among leaders, and calls for a more inclusive approach to health and aging. As always, please don't be afraid to contact us and put any questions you might have regarding this issue and any other to any of the Black Spy Podcast team.

What message does this send to allies and adversaries alike? And with Marco Rubio now wearing multiple hats as Secretary of State, acting USAID administrator, and interim National Security Advisor, is this a moment of consolidation—or further chaos?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.
