Former President Donald Trump's statement that the attack on Israel by Iran “would not have happened if we were in office,” has drawn derision, including from his former National Security Adviser John Bolton. Bolton called the remark “delusional,” saying that Trump “has no idea what to do in the Middle East in this situation.” If Trump is delusional, Bolton has amnesia regarding what happened on his watch and after. In less than four years under Biden, we have witnessed the disastrous pull out from Afghanistan and subsequently the Russian attack on Ukraine, the Hamas attack on Israel, and now the...Article Link

Former U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton discusses the reported leak of classified Pentagon papers and the need to reaffirm our support for Taiwan. Bolton comments that after the week of China carrying out military excersies around the Taiwan Strait, that the U.S., “in the short term, there's simply no question, we've got to put more weapons systems in that [Taiwan] needs, we need to do more training of their troops. I think putting Americans on the ground would make sense and other allies Japan, Australia, I think we've got to consider home-porting some American naval vessels there. We also need to think long term to embed Taiwan and collective self defense organizations with Japan, South Korea, Australia and others. And I must say, we've got to do a better job of keeping the European allies. French president Macron, just returning from China essentially threw Taiwan under the bus saying, ‘well, we don't want Europe to be led around and get involved in the American problem.'” Bolton comments that he believes this is “the kind of behavior that really causes so much harm to our effort to deter China, it's really an incalculable and just completely unacceptable statement by one of our NATO allies.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Former US Ambassador to the UN and National Security Adviser John Bolton considers the global challenges to the West.

Jim and Greg welcome the 14-year prison sentence handed down to former attorney and cable news darling Michael Avenatti for his crimes of corruption and they warn supporters of both parties not to fall in love with celebrities who happen to say a couple of things you agree with. They also slam Senate Republicans for being way too helpful in passing the Democrats' lame duck agenda. That strategy apparently includes passing an omnibus spending bill instead of a short-term bill that would give the new House GOP majority much more leverage on appropriations. Finally, as former National Security Adviser John Bolton weighs a 2024 presidential run, they don't believe his candidacy would go anywhere or be decisive in derailing President Trump.Please visit our great sponsors:Omaha Steakshttps://omahasteaks.com/martiniSave 50% sitewide and use code Martini at checkout for an extra 30% off.

Hour 2 of The Dawn Stensland Show: Andrew Stuttaford—Editor of National Review's Capital Matters—joins the show to discuss several of his most recent editorials, “Net Zero, Millenarianism, and the War Against Growth” and “Europe's Energy Crunch: Battening Down the Hatches.” Stuttaford explains that Europe's (Germany specifically) aggressive push towards renewable energy, coupled with its abandonment of fossil fuels and nuclear energy, has led to dependence on Russian oil. But will Europe have access to Russian gas during the winter season? Alarmingly, there is no plan B in the event Russia cuts off access via its pipelines. Germany's government is already requesting citizens reduce their energy consumption by 15%. Stuttaford hypothesizes that many of the policymakers and activists pushing for “decarbonization” are also, less-vocally, advocating for slowed economic growth. Despite negative reviews from television critics, Amazon Prime's “Terminal List,” starring Chris Pratt, has accumulated over 1.6 billion minutes of streaming and has scored a 94% “fresh” rating from audience members on Rotten Tomatoes. While appearing on CNN, former Trump Attorney Ty Cobb said that he believes it would be “bizarre” if the F.B.I.'s raid of Mar-a-Lago was due solely to a Presidential Records Act violation. He believes the investigation is related to January 6th. The Justice Department has charged Shahram Poursafi—a member of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard—for his alleged involvement in a plot to assassinate former National Security Adviser John Bolton. The assassination plot was believed to have been in response to the Trump Administration's approved military drone strike on Qasem Soleimani in 2020. While on CNN, Bolton joked that he was “embarrassed” by the low-price Iran was offering for his assassination. The Biden Administration is pushing a misleading talking point—that the economy experienced “zero inflation” in the month of July. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the consumer price index (CPI) did not rise in July—but inflation has risen 8.5% in July on an annual basis. Specifically, food prices are up 1.1% (10.9% annually) and energy is up 0.3% (5.9% annually).

Hour 2 of The Dawn Stensland Show: On Monday, the F.B.I. raided former President Donald Trump's Florida home. According to the New York Times' initial reporting, the search “appeared to be focused on material that Mr. Trump had brought with him to Mar-a-Lago.” The materials confiscated supposedly contained classified information that Trump had refused to surrender after leaving office. According to the Consumer Price Index, inflation rose 8.5% in July. Though the inflation rate has cooled since June, prices for food and rent continued to go up. The Justice Department has charged Shahram Poursafi—a member of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard—for his alleged involvement in a plot to assassinate former National Security Adviser John Bolton. The assassination plot was believed to have been in response to the Trump Administration's approved military drone strike on Qasem Soleimani in 2020. On Tuesday, candidate for Pennsylvania Governor Doug Mastriano joined Newsmax to give his reaction to the F.B.I.'s raid on Donald Trump's home in Mar-a-Lago. Despite negative reviews from television critics, Amazon Prime's “Terminal List,” starring Chris Pratt, has accumulated over 1.6 billion minutes of streaming and has scored a 94% “fresh” rating from audience members on Rotten Tomatoes.

On this week's "60 Minutes," Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba tells Lesley Stahl that Ukraine is not signaling abandonment of NATO plans. High-ranking Homeland Security officials in the Trump administration say they were overcome with feelings of vertigo, confusion and memory loss while on White House grounds and in their Washington, D.C.-area homes. The incidents and symptoms they describe are similar to the "Havana Syndrome" that has been reported by American diplomats in foreign countries since 2016. These claims were corroborated by former National Security Adviser John Bolton, who fears there is a threat to the highest levels of the U.S. government. In a two-part segment, these officials speak with Scott Pelley. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Zack and Jenn break down the growing scandal surrounding intelligence reports that Russia paid bounties to the Taliban to attack US troops in Afghanistan. They walk through the evidence so far that Russia did this and what Vladimir Putin’s motivations might have been. Then they talk about the evidence that Trump knew about it and did nothing — and how this points to a much bigger problem for American foreign policy in the Trump era. References: Zack has a really great explainer on the entire scandal  Here’s a collection of some of the key New York Times reports on the story: the first story they broke; the story about the data on financial transfers from a bank account linked to Russia’s GRU to a Taliban-linked account; and the story about the Afghan businessman alleged to have been the intermediary in the Russian scheme. Here’s Trump’s tweet calling this all a “Fake News Media Hoax” nearly a week after the news first broke This is the AP piece reporting that Trump’s former National Security Adviser John Bolton personally briefed Trump on the intelligence in March 2019 And this is the New York Times report in which an intelligence official says the information was specifically included in Trump’s February 27 President’s Daily Brief Here’s more about one of the attacks on US forces in Afghanistan, outside Bagram Air Base, that is reportedly being investigated in connection with the Russian bounty scheme  This is a New York Times piece from May 2020 about how hard it is to get Trump to pay attention to and absorb the information he’s being given in his intelligence briefings, based on interviews with 10 current and former intelligence officials And here’s a Politico report that talks about how White House officials particularly don’t enjoy having to brief Trump on Russia-related issues because of his negative reactions when they do:  Hosts: Zack Beauchamp (@zackbeauchamp), senior correspondent, Vox Jennifer Williams (@jenn_ruth), senior foreign editor, Vox Alex Ward (@AlexWardVox), national security reporter, Vox   Consider contributing to Vox: If you value Worldly’s work, please consider making a contribution to Vox: bit.ly/givepodcasts   More to explore: Subscribe for free to Today, Explained, Vox’s daily news podcast to help you understand the news, hosted by Sean Rameswaram.   About Vox: Vox is a news network that helps you cut through the noise and understand what's really driving the events in the headlines.   Follow Us: Vox.com  Newsletter: Vox Sentences  Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's episode of Loud & Clear, John Kiriakou is joined by Matthew Hoh, who worked for 12 years in United States Marine Corps and the Departments of Defense and State and resigned in 2009 from the State Department over the American escalation of the war in Afghanistan, whose writings have appeared in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Defense News, the Guardian, the Huffington Post, USA Today, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, and who won the Ridenhour Prize for Truth Telling.The New York Times over the weekend reported an explosive story saying that the Russian government paid a bounty for Taliban militants to kill Russian soldiers in Afghanistan. President Trump says he was never briefed on the report, and the intelligence community has used language indicating that they have no actual proof or corroboration. And the Pentagon says that Defense Department leaders were briefed on the report, but they, too, have not corroborated it. Former National Security Advisor John Bolton, who would have been briefed on the issue, seemed to not know anything about it when he was interviewed on the weekend news shows. Covid-19 continues to spread rapidly, with Florida, Texas, Arizona, and California setting new infection records over the weekend. The governors in those states have begun scaling back and reversing reopenings and two of them, in Texas and North Carolina, said they erred in opening too early. Coronavirus deaths have topped 126,000 so far in the United States. And there are more than a half a million dead worldwide. Dr. Jason Kindrachuk, an assistant professor of viral pathogenesis at the University of Manitoba and Canada Research Chair in molecular pathogenesis of emerging and reemerging viruses, joins the show with John. Boeing has received approval from the Federal Aviation Administration to begin test flights of its 737 Max jet to demonstrate that it can fly safely with new flight control software. The 737 Max was grounded in March 2019 after crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia that killed 346 people. No Boeing executives were held accountable for those deaths. John speaks with Mary Schiavo, the former Inspector General at the Department of Transportation, an aviation attorney, an aviation professor, and an on-air consultant on aviation matters for CNN. Monday’s segment “Education for Liberation with Bill Ayers” is where Bill helps us look at the state of education across the country.

In this segment, The Week Ahead, the hosts take a look at the most newsworthy stories of the coming week and what it means for the country and the world, including the supreme court decision today in favor of abortion rights for many many women who were at risk of losing further access to care; new articles out in several major papers about Russia allegedly putting bounties on American soldiers while they occupy Afghanistan, despite no hard evidence former National Security Adviser John Bolton not knowing about it, and having low casualties; and more.

Web developer and technologist Chris Garaffa and software engineer and technology and security analyst Patricia Gorky join the show.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Jim Kavanagh, a political analyst and contributor to Counterpunch and ThePolemicist.net, to talk about former National Security Adviser John Bolton's new book, why "#resistance" pro-establishment Democrats have largely embraced the far-right neocon despite his lifelong bellicosity, and why so many countries (including US allies) have rejected a number of his claims.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Guy McPherson, an author, scientist, and Professor Emeritus of Natural Resources and Ecology & Evolutionary Biology at the University of Arizona, talk about the record-breaking temperatures in Siberia, whether we're past the point of no return ecologically, and the connections between the uprising for racial justice, the pandemic, and the climate crisis.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Ken Hammond, an activist and professor of East Asian and Global History at New Mexico State University, to talk about why both sides of the US ruling class are "lashing out" towards China, how the passage of the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act by US Congress aims to suppress economic activity in China, and why any attempt to "decouple" the American and Chinese economies would almost certainly blow up in the face of the US government.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Brandon Sutton, host of The Discourse podcast, to talk about whether President Trump's rally in Tulsa was as much of a failure as the mainstrean media presents, why the US ruling class response to the pandemic and the anti-racist uprising reveal that capitalism is facing a crisis of legitimacy, and the signifance of the cancellation of various "copaganda" shows.

Claire Cook, DC-based community organizer with ONE DC and a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, tells Misfit hosts Michelle Witte and Bob Schlehuber about how the last statue commemorating a confederate general in Washington, DC, came down Friday night, and how long the capital's residents had tried to get the city to tear Albert Pike down before they finally took it into their own hands. She also talks about symbolic acts versus concrete programs and how well Mayor Muriel Bowser is succeeding at the latter. Eugene Puryear, journalist with BreakThrough News, discusses the firing of US Attorney for the Southern District of New York Geoffrey Berman, the strange wave of fireworks in cities around the US, how serious a threat the Boogaloo bois actually are, NASCAR's struggle to fight racism in its ranks, and how on earth sports are going to go on as this pandemic shows no sign of slowing.The hosts also broke down President Donald Trump's Tulsa rally, former National Security Adviser John Bolton's latest moment of network glory, the bizarre news that the pandemic has actually reduced poverty in the US, and Black and Hispanic prison guards being kept away from detained Officer Derek Chauvin. They also, of course, took a few swings at the toothless Sunday news shows.

Joining Tom for the hour today is the senior Democratic senator from Maryland, Ben Cardin. First elected to the Senate in 2006, he is currently the ranking member of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. He also serves on the Senate Finance Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee. Some of the topics Tom questions Sen. Cardin about: President Trump held a rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday. The arena wasn't as full as his campaign predicted it would be, but Mr. Trump did attract more than 6,000 people, despite numerous warnings from health officials that the rally posed a major health risk. A federal judge denied the Trump Administration's request that Simon and Schuster be blocked from releasing former National Security Adviser John Bolton’s tell-all memoir, citing the fact that so many copies of the book were already circulating. Bolton is making the rounds of national news shows, verifying previous reports in numerous other books that Mr. Trump is not fit to serve in the highest office in the land.... The Supreme Court handed the Trump Administration two legal losses last week, blocking its order to end DACA protections for so-called Dreamers, and disallowing workplace discrimination against LGBTQ employees. And as more businesses open in Maryland, the metrics around the COVID-19 pandemic in our state continue to improve. Our positivity rate is now within the guidelines set by the World Health Organization for easing restrictions. Other states, like Arizona and Florida, are seeing a spike in cases and an uptick in positivity rates. Sen. Cardin joins us on the line from his home in Pikesville. We take your calls for the senator a little later in the program.

Through the eyes of a former National Security Council Chief of Staff, what do the newly unsealed documents in the General Michael Flynn court case reveal?

Emily and Cordelia are on the road in the snowy mid-west state, finding out which candidate is whipping up the most excitement.

It's January 31, 2020. It's the 10th day of the impeachment trial of President Donald J. Trump. I'm Margaret Taylor, Senior Editor at Lawfare. Today, Senators listened to the arguments of the parties, and then voted 49-51 not to call new witnesses or subpoena new documents. Republican Senators Susan Collins and Mitt Romney voted with Democrats, but the vote was nonetheless unsuccessful. Senate leadership then offered a new procedural resolution to govern how the trial would conclude over the coming days. Closing statements from the parties will occur at 11am on Monday, and a final vote on the articles of impeachment will occur at 4pm on Wednesday. Democrats offered 4 amendments to the resolution. The first was an amendment to subpoena acting white house chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, Michael Duffey, and David Blair, as well as documents from the White House, the Office of Management and Budget, the Department of Defense, and the Department of State. The second was to subpoena just John Bolton. The third was to subpoena Bolton and allow for one day for a deposition and one day for live testimony. The fourth and final amendment was to require the Chief Justice to rule on motions to subpoena witnesses and documents, and to rule on any assertions of privilege. On all four amendments, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell moved to table--or defeat--them, and all were defeated. Thereater, the resolution setting out the path for resolution of the trial passed on a 53-47 party line vote.Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell then asked for unanimous consent to include statements of Senators explaining their votes in the Congressional record next week, along with a full record of the Senate's proceedings and handling of the impeachment proceedings. The Senate then agreed, by unanimous consent, to allow Senators to speak for up to 10 minutes each on Monday. This is The Impeachment, Episode 10. The Senate votes not to subpoena witnesses or documents, and charts a path forward to end the impeachment trial. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

Empirical evidence does not suggest that major sporting events cause trafficking for sexual exploitation. Yet 76 percent of US print media from 2010 to 2016 propagated the 'Super Bowl sex trafficking' narrative. Sensationalist narratives are difficult to dislodge, but that is Lauren Martin and Annie Hill are trying to do exactly that when they wrote Debunking the Myth of ‘Super Bowl Sex Trafficking’: Media hype or evidenced-based coverage. Everett Bartlett, president of the Stop Abusive and Violent Environments (SAVE) will join me to discuss the reality surrounding the negative narrative. The Trump Impeachment trial looked to be winding down but then there was a leak about a book. Democrats had been pressuring for more witnesses since before the trial began, especially after former National Security Adviser John Bolton said he'd comply with a subpoena to speak to lawmakers. They doubled down on their calls to hear from Bolton, after a recent report in the New York Times where they insisted that Bolton’s up-coming “tell-all” book was filled with Trump-damning information. Ken LaCorte, the founder of LaCorte News and former senior executive at the Fox News Channel from 1998-2016 where for the last decade he headed the editorial team at FoxNews.com, will join me to discuss the latest.

Here's a sample of the news story lineup from this week's edition of the 'Round-Up'-----Chief Justice John Roberts declined to read a sensitive question from Senator Rand Paul during the impeachment trial on Thursday.---In an interview last August, National Security Adviser John Bolton described President Trump's 2 phone calls with the Ukrainian leader as ,'warm and cordial.' ---Senator Ted Cruz said he's going to vote that they don't need any more witnesses, that they've heard all the evidence and that the House managers have failed.

1/29/20--Believe it or not, we are less than a week away from the Iowa caucuses, and the podcast bunker is filled with anticipation. Especially because after Iowa comes New Hampshire, and after New Hampshire, Super Tuesday when we all get to exercise our right to vote and revel in the democratic experience. In other news, the impeachment trial continues, and we turn to our very own pollster Steve Koczela to break down what voters think about whether Senators should call former National Security Adviser John Bolton to testify during the trial. This comes after revelations that a book manuscript written by Bolton contains evidence that would incriminate the President. Stephanie Murray has just returned from New Hampshire, where she covered an Elizabeth Warren canvassing event and met campaign surrogates who connected with Warren after being victimized by the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013. They shared their story with Stephanie. Finally, we turn to the most vocal advocate for an east-west rail link, State Senator Eric Lesser, whose high hopes for the potential project include improving the congestion crisis in Eastern Massachusetts and stimulating the economy in Western Massachusetts.

The president’s legal defense team made their opening statements and now we’re in the phase where senators can submit questions to the House impeachment managers and the lawyers. But the biggest developments in the trial have arguably occurred outside the Senate chamber. The New York Times reported on the contents of former National Security Adviser John Bolton’s forthcoming book. Among other claims, the book says President Trump told Bolton he wanted military aid to Ukraine withheld until Ukraine probed Joe and Hunter Biden — in other words, the quid pro quo. There will be a vote soon about witnesses in the Senate trial. Is this trial incomplete without John Bolton’s testimony? Also: why doesn’t John Bolton just...talk? Do Republicans really believe that the president should only be accountable to the voting public and the only way to remove a president is to vote them out of office? That seems to be what they are arguing. Alan Dershowitz has made some broad statements about presidential power this week, namely, that if the president believes his re-election is in the public interest, a quid pro quo done to win re-election isn’t impeachable. Wow. Also, is Rudy Giuliani a good podcast host?

It's January 27, 2020. On the sixth day of the impeachment trial of President Donald J. Trump, the President's team of lawyers resume their arguments in defense of the President. On Saturday, White House counsel Pat Cipollone and his team began their presentation, spending two hours summarizing their arguments. They continue today, just as press reports indicate that former National Security Adviser John Bolton wrote in his not-yet-published book manuscript that President Trump told Bolton in August that he wanted to continue freezing $391 million in security assistance to Ukraine until officials there helped with investigations into Democrats. including the Bidens.

After hiring new National Security Adviser John Bolton, the Trump administration made a surprise move in getting rid of the White House cybersecurity coordinator position. Some members of Congress think that's a bad idea. They're introducing a bill to install a permanent cyber coordinator and a National Office for Cyberspace. Federal News Radio's Scott Maucione spoke with the author of the bill, Rep. Jim Langevin (D-R.I), a member of the Committee on Homeland Security, on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

When it comes to North Korea, the old adage of “Trust, but verify” isn’t nearly enough. We should—absolutely—be skeptical of the rogue regime’s claims. And we should, of course, hold them accountable for whatever promises they might make. But we should still be encouraged by Kim Jong Un’s recent statements that he wants peace and is committed to stopping his nuclear weapons tests. A lot of hard work stands between where we are and where we want to go, but the Trump Administration deserves credit for bringing us this far. The key question is whether President Trump can produce a deal that completely ends that country’s nuclear weapons program. In his efforts, Trump is assisted by an all-star team of aides: Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, National Security Adviser John Bolton, and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis. If anyone can get this right, we should have confidence in this team.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
