Vu Le, founder of Nonprofit AF, joins Stephen Garten to talk about a problem many nonprofit leaders quietly live with: we are trained to tell funders half-truths because we fear losing funding. Vu breaks down how risk-averse philanthropy, obsession with overhead, and competitive grantmaking push nonprofits into scarcity and performance instead of honesty and impact.The conversation makes the case for better communication, collective organizing, and specific reforms like multi-year, general operating support and funder pledges. It also tackles boards, donor dynamics, and why the sector needs bigger imagination and bigger asks.What you will learnWhy nonprofits often feel forced to “sound fine” to funders even when things are not fineHow risk aversion and overhead fixation distort how nonprofits operateWhy collective action, open letters, and naming bad behavior can move fundersThe case for multi-year funding and general operating supportWhy nonprofit boards are frequently ineffective and how governance could be reimaginedHow wealth and power dynamics shape fundraising, especially for orgs led by marginalized communitiesKey takeawaysNonprofits often tell funders half-truths because the power imbalance is real.Many funders are risk-averse and unintentionally punish honesty.Better communication is necessary, but collective organizing is stronger than going it alone.Multi-year funding and general operating support are the practical fixes that matter most.“Crappy funding practices” waste nonprofit time and should be called out.Boards can be effective, useless, or mission-destructive. Too many fall into the last two categories.The sector needs bigger imagination and bigger asks, not tiny grants with giant expectations. ---------------------------About Charity ChargeCharity Charge is a financial technology company serving the nonprofit sector.

This solo episode starts with a celebration of the new year, 2026! I talk about time passing, aging, and the prospect of another year around the flaming hot ball in space. We're taking stock of what still matters, where things are headed, and how perspectives shift as the calendar turns.I then walk through a recent post by Gurwinder on X. It's a thread of useful concepts designed to equip people for 2026. I spend time unpacking each idea and discussing how we can apply these mental frameworks to real life, decision-making, and navigating an increasingly distracted world.I also talk about other topics, such as NGO grift and government corruption, Somali fraud in Minnesota, the collapse of trust in corporate media, artificial intelligence, the dangers of weaponized government power, and much more.

From Swiss Banking to Indian Orphanages—One Woman's Relentless Pursuit of Justice. What does it take to dismantle systems of injustice while building hope—one child, one case, one project at a time? Meet Noëlle Demole, born in Geneva, a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree who juggles fighting white-collar crime at Julius Baer Bank, running a groundbreaking NGO for India's most vulnerable youth, and pursuing a PhD in criminology at Cambridge. Her secret? Relentless planning, radical self-organization, and a vision that ties every facet of her life together. Noëlle's journey began at 18, when a single month volunteering in an Indian orphanage gave her life new meaning and ignited her mission to uplift children cast aside by society. That spark grew into Shere Khan Youth Protection—an NGO now supporting over 500 young people to break cycles of poverty and crime through education. But Noëlle didn't stop there. She's also tackling period poverty with her start-up Egidays, producing eye-opening documentaries, and speaking on global stages from TEDx to the Forbes Money Summit. How does she keep all the plates spinning? And what drives her to tackle some of the world's most urgent humanitarian and financial challenges—often at the same time? Tune in for an exclusive conversation where Noëlle reveals her strategies for managing multiple lives in one, her insight on the interconnectedness of social impact and compliance, and her advice for anyone daring to live their purpose at full throttle. Don't miss this episode of "Living a Life in Full"—where purpose meets action, and one woman's story just might inspire your own.

S.2197 NGO คุมสื่อสาธารณะ? 

Ten foreign ministers have condemned Israel's decision to close down dozens of international NGOs providing aid to Palestinians in Gaza, urging the Israeli government to "lift these obstacles to humanitarian access and fulfill its commitments" in the territory. The foreign ministers, including from Britain, France and Canada, expressed "deep concern" over the "catastrophic" humanitarian situation and called on Israel to "ensure that international NGOs can operate in Gaza on a sustainable basis." Israel took the decision to revoke the licenses of 37 aid groups working in Gaza and the West Bank from today, claiming they failed to meet requirements under new registration rules. NGO’s that did not renew their registration are no longer allowed to operate in the Gaza Strip starting from today.

Nghe trọn nội dung sách nói Những Cảm Xúc Bị Dồn Nén trên ứng dụng Voiz FM: https://voiz.vn/play/205/ Một cuốn sách tâm lý học sẽ cho bạn biết điều gì, ngoài những thuật ngữ, khái niệm và các chứng tâm thần của con người? Khi phân tâm học mở ra con đường tâm lý trị liệu, tâm lý học đã đến gần đời sống thường nhật của con người hơn một chút.Những Cảm Xúc Bị Dồn Nén của nhà tâm lý trị liệu Isador Henry Coriat giúp bạn tự thấu hiểu chính mình. Tác giả chỉ ra rằng khi tinh thần con người chịu đau khổ, ý thức kích hoạt một cơ chế phòng vệ bằng cách dồn nén cảm xúc. Những cảm xúc bị dồn nén giống như một bức tường, một tấm khiên bảo vệ tinh thần khỏi nỗi khổ đau. Nhưng nếu cơ chế ấy thất bại, hậu quả có thể là những rối loạn thần kinh nghiêm trọng.Trong nền văn minh hiện đại, con người sống liên miên giữa các mâu thuẫn tinh thần: lý trí và cảm xúc, ý thức và vô thức. Cả người bị hại lẫn kẻ gây hại đều có thể trở thành nạn nhân của một thế lực vô hình nhưng bạo ngược hơn: những cảm xúc đau khổ bị nén lại. Sự thật sau cùng là tổn thương.Cuốn sách không chỉ trao cho bạn tấm bản đồ, mà còn là chiếc chìa khóa để mở ra câu trả lời. Trước khi tìm đến nhà trị liệu, hãy học cách trở thành nhà trị liệu của chính mình.

For the past several years Germany has been deconstructing their fossil fuel energy production and replacing it with far more expensive alternatives.  This has led to large increases in overall energy prices, and downstream increases in manufacturing costs. The consequences have been snowballing throughout 2025, while cheap competitive alternatives coming into the EU from China have compounded their problem.  Recently a survey of major industries was conducted in Germany to determine the forecast for 2026, the results are not good. Approximately half of the industrial sectors in Germany are anticipating job losses, cuts or layoffs this year. 22 out of 46 business associations are preparing to downsize their labor force.  Only 9 of the 46 are expected to increase hiring.   Job losses are expected in auto manufacturing, the textile sector, wood and paper fabrication.  Job gains are expected in aerospace, shipbuilding and defense production – i.e. the war machinery. When the largest and most developed industrial economy in Europe is pinning its economic survival on war machinery, a particular momentum is created.  It is never a good outcome for Europe when Germany becomes reliant on war to maintain employment.

This pledge represents a fraction of historical U.S. contributions, which have reached up to $17 billion in recent years, with voluntary funding often in the $8-10 billion range. Administration officials describe the amount as sufficient to keep America as the world's top humanitarian donor while demanding greater efficiency from UN agencies. The funding will flow through an umbrella mechanism controlled by the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), allowing targeted distribution to specific crises and countries. Initial priorities include 17 nations such as Bangladesh, Congo, Haiti, Syria, and Ukraine. Notably absent from the list are Afghanistan and the Palestinian territories, with officials stating Gaza aid will tie into ongoing peace efforts. Source: discernreport.com  War/Peace Did US Land Strikes On Venezuela Begin Last Week & No One Knew It? President Trump on Friday in a radio interview disclosed something which missed the attention of the US and global media. He let slip that a large land site had been knocked out by a strike from US forces in the Caribbean – however without specifying which country was hit (whether Venezuela or perhaps Colombia). o  According to the full remarks in context, the president said: “But every time I knock out a boat, we save 25,000 American lives. It’s very simple. And what’s happening is they’re having a hard time employment-wise, they can’t get anybody. And we just talked out, I don’t know if you read or you saw, they [Venezuela] have a big plant or a big facility where the ships come from. Two nights ago, we knocked that out. So we hit them very hard. But drugs are down over 97 percent. Can you believe it?” Some unnamed American officials suggested to the New York Times that the Commander-in-Chief was referring to a drug facility in Venezuela: Trump did not name the location of the facility, though American officials told the New York Times that the president was referring to a drug facility in Venezuela that was eliminated. The president's comment is the only report of such an attack. No other Latin American government, including Venezuela, has disclosed a strike of this sort. : Source: zerohedge.com  Zelensky Wants 50-Year(!) Security Guarantee From Trump A major point of disagreement remains security guarantees. Ukraine has been pushing maximalist demands for something akin to NATO Article 5 protections. It would be like getting all the benefits of being in NATO but without being a formal member of the Western military alliance. The Ukrainian side has revealed that President Trump had offered security guarantees for 15 years following a peaceful settlement, but Zelensky considered this much too short to protect from future potential Russian aggression. But in classic Zelensky fashion, he wants way more than this. Also, maximalist demands are something that European leaders have backed him on all along – and they may have even put him up to. According to The Wall Street Journal: Kyiv had asked for security guarantees to last up to 50 years after the end of the conflict during weekend discussions. In the documents currently being discussed, the U.S. offered a 15-year guarantee with the possibility of extension, Zelensky said in audio messages to journalists on Monday.   Source: zerohedge.com  Russia accuses Ukraine of military attack on Putin’s residence: ‘state terrorism’   Russia is promising retaliation against Ukraine for an alleged military attack on President Vladimir Putin’s residence in the northern Russia area of Novgorod, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky deemed a lie intended to undermine peace talks, Reuters reports. . Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Monday that Russian air defenses destroyed all 91 long-range drones targeting Putin’s residence and that no one was injured and no damage reported. “Such reckless actions,” which Lavrov deemed “state terrorism,” will be answered with retaliatory strikes on targets in Ukraine, he said.

This year he focused on the country's youngest children and their families' need for high-quality child care.” The Obama administration was a gigantic money laundering operation. “The President explained the need in last Tuesday's address stating, “In today's economy, when having both parents in the workforce is an economic necessity for many families, we need affordable, high quality childcare more than ever.” “But the child care tax credit isn't all the President proposed.” “He would also significantly expand the Child Care and Development Fund(CCDF), a child care subsidy for low- and moderate-income families authorized under the Child Care Block Development Grant (CCDBG) Act. (CCDBG was reauthorized last year after 18 years.) By 2025, the proposed expansion would increase the reach of CCDF to an additional one million children, under four-years-old.” Taxpayers subsidies and grants for “childcare.” “The last part of the President's proposal, in typical Obama Administration-style, is a competitive grant that would promote innovation in the child care system. The proposed grants– totaling $100 million– would allow states to create pilot programs to determine the best ways to provide child care to vulnerable populations, including children with disabilities, parents who work non-traditional hours, and families who have difficulty finding high-quality child care.” https://newamerica.org/education-policy/edcentral/presidents-child-care-plan/ Taxpayers “grants” totaling $100 million (for starters) to be given to “vulnerable populations.” Can you say “Somali?” Taxpayers funding of “childcare,” was a “necessity” for the funding of the democrat party. The Somali community was always a hub of this “childcare” theft of taxpayers money. It was set up this way on purpose. A Somali community, governed by Somali's and protected by the democrat party. The Somali's were being brought into this country starting with the George W. Bush's presidency. But Obama began accelerating the number of refugees from Somalia along with other Muslim countries. Here's just the last year under Obama. “A total of 38,901 Muslim refugees entered the U.S. in fiscal year 2016, making up almost half (46%) of the nearly 85,000 refugees who entered the country in that period, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of data from the State Department's Refugee Processing Center. That means the U.S. has admitted the highest number of Muslim refugees of any year since data on self-reported religious affiliations first became publicly available in 2002.” “Just two countries – Syria (12,486) and Somalia (9,012) – were the source of more than half of fiscal 2016's Muslim refugees. The rest are from Iraq (7,853), Burma (Myanmar) (3,145), Afghanistan (2,664) and other countries (3,741).” https://pewresearch.org/short-reads/2016/10/05/u-s-admits-record-number-of-muslim-refugees-in-2016/ Obama was an installed puppet of Prince Alwaleed and was doing his bidding. Obama filled his administration with people tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, who were implementing their “civilization jihad.” These communities began electing corrupt representatives like Ilhan Omar. Infiltration not invasion. Taxpayers money was funneled into these communities through “childcare grants” and other “welfare programs,” in order to fund the democrat party. Minnesota is just the “doorway” into a much larger nationwide fraud scheme to fund the democrat party. A magnifying glass is about to be put on ALL state welfare programs that are receiving “federal funding.” These grants and benefits handed out to these crooks, are now the doorway to expose and bring them all to an end.

Attorney General Pam Bondi   asked the prosecutors to investigate the Obama-Biden era of lawfare as an ongoing election-meddling conspiracy that protected Democrats from criminal investigation and infringed the civil rights of Republicans like President Donald Trump and his supporters. An “ongoing conspiracy” and the statute of limitations Such an approach allows prosecutors to charge defendants with alleged crimes outside the statute of limitations because they were connected to an ongoing conspiracy, much like those cases brought against the mafia and drug cartels. “At my direction, our U.S. Attorneys and federal agents are actively investigating instances of government weaponization nationwide,” Bondi said. “This is a ten-year stain on the country committed by high-ranking officials against the American people.

That's why it's so important to nuke the filibuster, pass the Save Act, invoke the Insurrection Act, deport all the illegals, and arrest everyone involved. If we don't, the Dems will take complete control, we will become a one-party State, and they will eventually phase us out via mass immigration. That's why the Dems have been trying to destroy, obstruct, and kill Trump, ever since he came down the escalator. Because they knew that he knew about all this, and is on a mission to stop it. The American People are being replaced, and the Democrats are directly responsible for it. This is the battle for the Republic.

Jon Herold kicks off the week with a wide-ranging Daily Herold that blends market watch, political theater, and cultural absurdity into a familiar Badlands-style rundown. After some behind-the-scenes tech hiccups, Jon dives into movements in silver and gold, questioning mainstream narratives around profit-taking and geopolitics while keeping an eye on broader economic instability. From there, the conversation pivots into viral cultural moments, media propaganda fatigue, and the growing public awareness of systemic fraud, including NGO abuse, entitlement programs, and taxpayer-funded corruption. The episode explores the implications of government waste, ballooning national debt, and the unsustainable structure of modern governance, drawing parallels between failing businesses and a failing state. Jon also breaks down ongoing Ukraine developments, Trump's communications with global leaders, and the repetitive cycle of political “breakthrough” headlines that never quite materialize. As always, the show blends sharp commentary, humor, audience interaction, and skepticism toward institutional narratives, closing with reflections on accountability, civic disengagement, and the slow drip of normalization in an increasingly unserious system.

Năm 2025 khép lại với hội nghị của Ban Chấp hành Trung ương khóa XIII ngày 22-23/12 và khả năng ông Tô Lâm tiếp tục làm tổng bí thư, theo nguồn tin của Reuters. Năm 2025 cũng đánh dấu nhiều kỷ lục về kim ngạch thương mại, số lượt du khách nước ngoài đến Việt Nam ; tăng trưởng “sáng nhất trong khu vực” Đông Nam Á, tinh gọn bộ máy hành chính. Bên cạnh đó là những thiệt hại khủng khiếp do thiên tai, ô nhiễm môi trường. RFI Tiếng Việt điểm lại một số sự kiện quan trọng tại Việt Nam năm 2025. Tổng bí thư tập trung quyền lực trong nước Tại hội nghị của Ban Chấp hành Trung ương khóa XIII, các đại biểu nhất trí ủng hộ những chính sách được tổng bí thư Tô Lâm thúc đẩy. Ông Tô Lâm trở thành người thi hành được nhanh chóng “cuộc cách mạng chống quan liêu” được ấp ủ từ lâu. Thành công này cũng cho thấy quyền lực cá nhân của ông Tô Lâm và những chiến lược tập trung quyền lực đằng sau, theo nhận định của giám đốc nghiên cứu Benoît de Tréglodé, Viện Nghiên cứu Chiến lược (IRSEM), Trường Quân sự Pháp, khi trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt ngày 04/07/2025 : “(…) Nếu một cuộc cải cách đầy tham vọng như vậy được thực hiện bởi một người duy nhất thì đó là do ông ấy không cảm thấy bị bất kỳ ai đe dọa và điều này nằm trong quyền lực to lớn của ông trong bộ máy chính trị Việt Nam. Vào đúng năm trước Đại hội Đảng, với cuộc tinh giản bộ máy hành chính ở cấp địa phương, nhưng cũng có thể nói là ở cấp trung ương, ở cấp bộ, không ai chắc chắn là giữ được vị trí của mình, kể cả trong Ban Chấp hành Trung ương. Số người may mắn được chọn sẽ ít hơn vào năm 2026. Có thể nói chiến dịch kiểm soát khổng lồ này thậm chí còn hiệu quả hơn các chiến dịch chống tham nhũng thông thường. Bởi vì chúng khiến mọi người run sợ, ai cũng muốn giữ lấy chỗ và có thể theo đuổi sự nghiệp trong một bộ máy hành chính bị thu hẹp lại”. Đọc thêmSáp nhập tỉnh, thành 2025 : Chiến lược tập quyền và thành công cá nhân của TBT Tô Lâm Mở rộng vai trò của tổng bí thư trên trường quốc tế Trong hơn một năm giữ chức tổng bí thư, ông Tô Lâm có lẽ là lãnh đạo đảng công du nước ngoài nhiều nhất, thăm hơn 20 nước, ký nhiều thỏa thuận nâng cấp quan hệ đối tác. Tổng bí thư không chỉ còn muốn đứng đầu đảng, giữ vai trò về tư tưởng, mà là một nhà lãnh đạo cao nhất. Và ông Tô Lâm đang làm cho các đối tác phương Tây quen dần với hình ảnh này, theo nhận định của tiến sĩ Vũ Khang, Đại học Boston, Mỹ : “Việt Nam đã đặt các đối tác phương Tây vào vị trí phải công nhận tính chính danh và sự ngang hàng của vị trí tổng bí thư với các vị trí nguyên thủ quốc gia qua các cuộc gặp cấp cao. Đây cũng là một di sản của cố tổng bí thư Nguyễn Phú Trọng khi ông đã thành công bắt Mỹ phải công nhận tổng bí thư là ngang hàng với chức tổng thống Mỹ. Điều này chứng tỏ đây là một chính sách đường dài chứ không phải ngắn hạn cho kỳ Đại hội Đảng sắp tới, và dù ai ở vị trí tổng bí thư đi chăng nữa thì cũng sẽ được kế thừa di sản này”. Đọc thêmNâng cấp đối tác chiến lược toàn diện với Pháp, chủ tịch Tô Lâm muốn thể hiện năng lực ngoại giao, ổn định chính trị Việt Nam Mối quan hệ đặc biệt với Pháp được thể hiện qua chuyến công du Hà Nội của tổng thống Emmanuel Macron. Với 14 thỏa thuận trị giá 9 tỷ euro, Pháp muốn hiện diện mạnh mẽ tại Việt Nam, kể cả trong lĩnh vực quốc phòng. Giáo sư Pierre Journoud, Đại học Paul Valery - Montpellier 3, đánh giá : “Có thể nói ngắn gọn rằng bối cảnh hiện nay thuận lợi cho việc Việt Nam và Pháp xích lại gần hơn trong lĩnh vực quốc phòng. Pháp là nước xuất khẩu vũ khí lớn thứ hai thế giới vào năm 2024, cho nên có một số tham vọng chính đáng ở khu vực Đông Nam Á. Còn Việt Nam đã tổ chức triển lãm quốc phòng quốc tế lần thứ hai tại Hà Nội vào tháng 12/2024. Việt Nam bắt đầu đa dạng hóa việc mua vũ khí và trang thiết bị quân sự để bù đắp cho những thiếu hụt thực sự, hoặc được cho là như vậy, của nhà cung cấp Nga, vốn chiếm ưu thế ở Việt Nam”. Kim ngạch thương mại lập kỷ lục, bất chấp thuế đối ứng của Mỹ Năm 2025, tổng kim ngạch thương mại của Việt Nam lập kỷ lục, đạt 920 tỷ đô la, tăng 16,9% so với năm 2024, theo Tổng Cục Hải quan. Trung Quốc tiếp tục là thị trường cung cấp hàng hóa lớn nhất cho Việt Nam, đạt kim ngạch 183 tỷ đô la. Mỹ tiếp tục là thị trường xuất khẩu lớn nhất của Việt Nam, đạt mốc kỷ lục gần 152 tỷ đô la, bất chấp các biện pháp thuế đối ứng (20%) của tổng thống Donald Trump. Tuy vậy, trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt, chuyên gia kinh tế Lê Đăng Doanh cho rằng mức thuế 20% vẫn bất lợi cho các doanh nghiệp Việt Nam, so với một số nước khác được mức thuế 19% hoặc 15% : “Theo tôi, những mặt hàng bị tác động bao gồm may mặc, da giày, kể cả một số mặt hàng đồ gỗ. Nếu như tình hình tiếp tục như thế này, các nhà xuất khẩu Việt Nam sẽ phải tìm cách đa dạng hóa các thị trường và tìm các biện pháp để có thể tiếp tục duy trì sản xuất và xuất khẩu và tìm cách né tránh thuế 20% này. Hiện nay Việt Nam đang cố gắng tìm cách mở rộng thị trường ở Trung Đông và tìm kiếm những thị trường ở châu Phi, đồng thời muốn phát triển những thị trường khác tuy nhỏ nhưng hy vọng là sẽ vẫn có thể đón nhận được hàng hóa của Việt Nam một cách thuận lợi”.  Đọc thêmViệt Nam: Thuế "trung chuyển" của Mỹ gây khó khăn cho doanh nghiệp đầu tư nước ngoài Thặng dự thương mại (đạt 21,2 tỷ đô la) chủ yếu đến từ khối đầu tư trực tiếp nước ngoài (FDI) với 48,2 tỷ đô la bởi vì các doanh nghiệp trong nước thâm hụt thương mại hơn 27 tỷ đô la. Mức thuế 20% có thể khả thi cho hoạt động xuất khẩu của các nhà đầu tư nước ngoài. Tuy nhiên, thuế “trung chuyển” (transshipment) lên tới 40% mới là vấn đề khó khăn. Ông Jean-Jacques Bouflet, phó chủ tịch Phòng Thương mại châu Âu tại Việt Nam - EuroCham, giải thích với RFI Tiếng Việt ngày 08/08 : “Theo thuật ngữ hải quan Hoa Kỳ, “trung chuyển” không chỉ đơn giản là dỡ hàng từ một phương tiện vận chuyển hay từ một hình thức vận chuyển này sang một phương tiện hoặc hình thức vận chuyển khác, mà chủ yếu là sự thay đổi nguồn gốc ở nước cuối cùng. Nói cách khác, nếu quyết định đánh thuế hàng “trung chuyển” được sử dụng để áp đặt một hàm lượng nội địa tối thiểu đáng kể, thì có nghĩa là để ngăn chặn nhập khẩu nguyên liệu từ các nước thứ ba, ý tôi muốn nói ở đây là Trung Quốc chẳng hạn. Đây có lẽ sẽ là một vấn đề lớn đối với phần lớn lĩnh vực sản xuất của Việt Nam (…) bởi vì hiện tại, Việt Nam không thể bảo đảm sản xuất được 100% hoặc 80% sản lượng nội địa, có thể là trừ sản xuất nông nghiệp”. Mục tiêu tăng trưởng 10% năm 2026 khó đạt được vì khó khăn toàn cầu Với tổng kim ngạch thương mại năm 2025 đạt 920 tỷ đô la, Việt Nam gia nhập nhóm 25 nền kinh tế thương mại lớn nhất thế giới. Sau mức tăng tổng sản phẩm quốc nội (GDP) khoảng 8%, chính phủ đề ra mục tiêu tăng trưởng 10% cho năm 2026. Ông Hubert Testard, chuyên gia về châu Á, tổng biên tập báo mạng Asialyst, cho rằng “mục tiêu này lại quá lạc quan, rất tham vọng” : “Trước tiên là mức thuế quan trung bình 20% của Mỹ mà ai cũng biết, nhưng cũng phải kể đến nhiều mức thuế đặc biệt khác đối với ô tô, thép, nhôm. Gần đây, còn có một vấn đề khác đối với các nhà xuất khẩu thủy sản Việt Nam, với thông báo ngừng xuất khẩu một số mặt hàng vào năm 2026. Ngoài ra, bối cảnh chung ở một số nước khác cũng không đặc biệt hơn. Nghĩa là nhu cầu của Trung Quốc không mạnh lắm, châu Âu thì đang cố gắng hạn chế dòng hàng nhập khẩu từ châu Á, đặc biệt là từ Trung Quốc. Vì vậy, bối cảnh quốc tế sẽ kém thuận lợi hơn. Tất cả các tổ chức quốc tế đều dự đoán năm 2026 sẽ có mức tăng trưởng kém hơn một chút so với năm 2025”. Đọc thêm2026 : Bối cảnh quốc tế không thuận lợi cho mục tiêu tăng trưởng 10% của Việt Nam Mục tiêu tăng trưởng cũng có thể bị tác động vì thiệt hại do thiên tai, ô nhiễm môi trường. Theo Cục Quản lý đê điều và Phòng, chống thiên tai, năm 2025 đã đi vào lịch sử thiên tai Việt Nam với những kỷ lục chưa từng có ; thiệt hại kinh tế lên tới hơn 100.000 tỷ đồng (gần 4 tỷ đô la) - lớn nhất từ trước tới nay. Theo Kế hoạch Ứng phó thiên tai chung năm 2025, được Liên Hiệp Quốc xây dựng trên cơ sở hợp tác giữa chính phủ Việt Nam và các đối tác trong nước, quốc tế, khoảng 96,2 triệu đô la được huy động để đáp ứng nhu cầu nhân đạo, hỗ trợ cho người dân bị ảnh hưởng, đồng thời xây dựng lộ trình hướng tới khả năng phục hồi và thích ứng với  biến đổi khí hậu trong dài hạn. Giải quyết ô nhiễm môi trường : Vấn đề cấp bách Một vấn đề khác là tình trạng ô nhiễm không khí ở Việt Nam, khiến khoảng 70.000 người chết. Để giảm bớt “thành tích” nhiều lần đứng đầu danh sách “đô thị ô nhiễm nhất thế giới”, thành phố Hà Nội triển khai lộ trình cấm xe chạy xăng dầu, bắt đầu trong vành đai 1 (trung tâm) Hà Nội, kể từ ngày 01/07/2026. Song song với biện pháp triệt để này, nhà quy hoạch đô thị Basile Hassan, trưởng dự án Moov'Hanoi, Cơ quan hỗ trợ Hợp tác quốc tế Vùng Paris tại Việt Nam - PRX-Vietnam, cho rằng cần phát triển, nâng cấp hệ thống giao thông công cộng để người dân có nhiều lựa chọn : “Mạng lưới giao thông công cộng hiện tại không đáp ứng được nhu cầu của người dân. Hà Nội có tàu điện nhưng lại không đủ, thậm chí còn không đi đến trung tâm thành phố. Trong bối cảnh người dân chủ yếu sử dụng xe máy, rất cạnh tranh về mặt thời gian, đi từ điểm A đến điểm B mà không phải thay đổi phương tiện, cho nên giao thông công cộng có vẻ kém cạnh tranh hơn vì mất thời gian hơn so với xe máy, phải nối chuyến, phải đi đến các bến. Vì vậy về mặt thời gian và hiệu quả, phương tiện công cộng kém hấp dẫn hơn xe máy, được ưa chuộng ở Hà Nội”.

Mục tiêu đặt ra cho năm 2026 là thu hút 25 triệu du khách quốc tế. Ngoài việc chú trọng vào dịch vụ chăm sóc khách hàng, chi phí không quá đắt, thì kéo dài thời gian miễn thị thực đối với nhiều nước được cho là một yếu tố quan trọng, theo giải thích với RFI Tiếng Việt của ông Nguyễn Xuân Hải, giám đốc của La Palanche Voyages : “Bây giờ khi được 45 ngày, có thể người ta đến Việt Nam chỉ 15 ngày thôi, nhưng người ta có thể tiến, lùi ngày để có được vé máy bay tốt hơn, phù hợp với khả năng chi trả của người ta hơn. Miễn visa 45 ngày là cả một bước đột phá lớn (...) Nay có đến 45 ngày miễn visa, giống như là chúng ta đang “thừa giấy vẽ voi”. Chúng tôi sẽ có thể vẽ ra những con voi rất sinh động, đưa được khách đến những vùng xa hơn, sâu hơn, đến những nơi mà theo chúng tôi còn nguyên bản hơn”.

India's coastal waters hold immense promise—and growing peril. In this episode of the Think Wildlife Podcast, host Anish Banerjee speaks with Oishinee Chakraborty from the Kuddle Life Foundation, a young organization redefining marine conservation in Pondicherry through science, community collaboration, and artificial reefs.Oishinee introduces listeners to the Foundation's origins—founded in 2020 by Punit Dhandhania and Hans Dhandhania, who transformed a small circle of ocean enthusiasts into a leading grassroots force for marine ecology and biodiversity conservation. With limited institutions working on ocean protection in southern India, Kuddle Life fills a critical gap by creating local, science-driven projects that link marine ecosystems, coastal livelihoods, and sustainable development.At the heart of their work lies the artificial reef program—a groundbreaking effort to restore degraded marine ecosystems and revive marine biodiversity. Oishinee explains that space is the ocean's most limiting factor, and artificial reefs—built using eco-friendly materials like concrete and steel—mimic the natural hard surfaces that corals, sponges, and fish larvae need to attach, grow, and form thriving underwater communities. These structures replicate some functions of natural coral reefs, acting as catalysts for marine biodiversity management and ecosystem recovery.The process of building an artificial reef begins with community engagement. Fisherfolk are invited to share local ecological knowledge and help identify suitable sites for reef deployment. Scientists then assess seabed topography, water quality, and existing biodiversity before designing reef modules—each over 500 kg and a meter tall. Local divers and fishermen help deploy the structures less than five kilometers offshore, making the effort both participatory and empowering.Monitoring continues for years, as reefs mature and attract a diversity of marine wildlife. In Pondicherry, Kuddle Life has recorded remarkable results: a 20% rise in dissolved oxygen, increased chlorophyll levels, and nearly a fourfold growth in fish abundance. For local fishers, incomes have doubled—from ₹5,000 to ₹10,000 per day—while fuel costs have halved because fishing now occurs closer to shore. These outcomes highlight how marine biodiversity conservation can drive both ecological and economic resilience.Globally, artificial reefs have become vital tools for restoring marine ecosystems damaged by climate change, overfishing, and pollution. Yet, as Oishinee reminds us, nothing can replace natural coral reefs. Artificial structures can only supplement lost habitat, not substitute for nature's complexity. Still, by reviving degraded areas and promoting sustainable fishing, these reefs help maintain ocean productivity in a warming world.Beyond reef restoration, the Kuddle Life Foundation runs educational and research programs across India. Through marine litter surveys, bycatch reduction initiatives, dive training, and youth internships, the foundation is building a generation of ocean stewards. Its unique for-profit dive center reinvests earnings into conservation, while volunteers support marine ecology projects both underwater and onshore—from data analysis to biodiversity monitoring.Oishinee also discusses the challenges of sustaining NGO work in India—funding barriers, bureaucratic delays, and the slow pace of conservation impact. Yet, she finds hope in the growing public interest in marine biodiversity, particularly when students and non-biologists approach her asking how they can help. That curiosity, she believes, is the first step toward lasting ocean change.This episode reveals how grassroots innovation, science, and compassion are reshaping marine biodiversity hotspots along India's coast—proving that ocean recovery begins not just beneath the waves, but within communities themselves.#artificialreefs #marineecology #marineecosystems #marinebiodiversity #marineconservation #marinewildlife #marinebiodiversityhotspot #marinebiodiversityconservation #biodiversityconservation #biodiversity #biodiversitymanagementAbout the HostAnish Banerjee is an early career ecologist, with a MSc in Ecology, Evolution and Conservation from Imperial College London.

VOV1 - Thủ đô Hà Nội đang bước vào những ngày ô nhiễm đỉnh điểm khi chỉ số bụi mịn liên tục chạm ngưỡng nguy hại. Trong rất nhiều nguyên nhân khiến màn sương mù đặc quánh, bụi từ hoạt động xây dựng đang nổi lên như một thủ phạm chính, thách thức nỗ lực cải thiện môi trường của thành phố.Ban ngày là những dòng phương tiện và công trường tấp nập còn ban đêm Hà Nội cũng vẫn phải đối mặt với nhiều nguy cơ ô nhiễm vẫn là từ các công trình đang xây dựng ngày đêm để theo kịp tiến độ. UBND thành phố Hà Nội cũng đã có số liệu dẫn chứng nguồn gây ô nhiễm không khí khoảng 40% từ hoạt động giao thông, 16% từ hoạt động xây dựng. Đáng chú ý, hoạt động giao thông làm phát sinh bụi mịn PM2.5 còn xây dựng đang gây ra bụi có kích cỡ lớn hơn là bụi PM10, nhưng khi rơi xuống đường phố, xe cộ chạy qua lại làm bào mòn bụi PM10 thành bụi mịn. Ngoài ra, số liệu nguồn gây ô nhiễm thứ cấp chiếm khoảng 35% nhưng cũng từ hoạt động xây dựng. Đến nay, thành phố Hà Nội chưa kiểm kê tổng thể các nguồn phát thải vào không khí, tuy nhiên, tổng hợp được nghiên cứu của Bộ Nông nghiệp và Môi trường, Ngân hàng Thế giới cho thấy, bụi mịn PM2.5, PM10 có nguồn phát thải chính từ phương tiện giao thông đường bộ và bụi đường, trong đó nguồn giao thông chiếm 66,3% đối với PM 2.5 và hơn 54% đối với PM10. Ngoài ra, đốt rơm rạ ngoài trời và hoạt động công nghiệp cũng được xác định là nguồn phát thải lớn 2 loại bụi này.

William Ury is one of the world's most influential peacebuilders and experts on negotiation. He advised Colombian president Juan Manuel Santos in the lead up to that country's historic 2016 peace agreement with the FARC, and played a key role in de-escalating nuclear tensions between the U.S. and North Korea in 2017. Getting to Yes, which Ury co-wrote with Roger Fisher back in 1981, is the world's best selling book on negotiation. Ury co-founded the Program on Negotiation at Harvard, as well as the Abraham Path Initiative, an NGO that builds walking trails connecting communities in the Middle East. His new book is called  Possible: How we Survive - and Thrive - in an Age of Conflict. It's filled with incredible stories from Bill's career. In this episode, Bill talks about how lessons from the failures and success of the past – in places like Northern Ireland, Colombia, and the Middle East – can be instructive when dealing with the conflicts of today.  He shares exciting ideas about how journalists can tell stories about peace. What's more, his insights on managing conflict can be applied anywhere from the UN to the boardroom to your own family. William Ury's ideas aren't easy to implement –  in fact they're incredibly challenging. Ury says conflicts don't end, but they can be transformed, from fighting with weapons to hashing differences out in a democratic process. And if Northern Ireland, South Africa, and Colombia – places where people said violent conflict would go on forever – could transform their conflicts, then there's hope for the seemingly “impossible” conflicts of today. Music in this episode by Joel Cummins, Podington Bear, Kevin MacLeod, Meavy Boy, and Faszo.This episode was originally published in May 2024.

VOV1 - Các cuộc đàm phán tại Miami giữa Nga, Mỹ và Ukraine kết thúc cuối tuần qua, song đánh giá từ các bên cho thấy những tín hiệu trái chiều, khi chưa đi đến một kết quả cụ thể.Phát biểu về kết quả đàm phán tại Miami hôm qua, Thứ trưởng Ngoại giao Nga Sergey Ryabkov cho biết tiến trình đối thoại còn “tiến triển chậm”, đồng thời nhấn mạnh vẫn còn nhiều vấn đề tồn tại chưa được làm rõ, trong đó một số điều chỉnh do Ucraina và các nước phương Tây đề xuất chưa phù hợp với lập trường của Nga.Người phát ngôn Điện Kremlin Dmitry Peskov nhận định nội dung của tiến trình đàm phán chỉ có thể được trao đổi trong khuôn khổ kín, và Nga chưa nhận được tín hiệu chính thức nào cho thấy đã có bước ngoặt thực chất.Về phía Mỹ, Phó Tổng thống J.D. Vance cũng thừa nhận rằng vấn đề lãnh thổ vẫn là trở ngại lớn nhất trong các cuộc thảo luận, đặc biệt liên quan đến Donbass và tương lai của cộng đồng nói tiếng Nga tại khu vực này.Trong khi đó, theo truyền thông Ucraina, phái đoàn nước này đã hoàn tất các cuộc đàm phán tại Mỹ và đang chuẩn bị báo cáo về các văn kiện liên quan đến bảo đảm an ninh và 20 điểm trong khuôn khổ đối thoại. Theo đó, Ucraina mong muốn duy trì lực lượng vũ trang quy mô khoảng 800.000 người với nguồn tài chính ổn định; coi tư cách thành viên Liên minh châu Âu EU là nền tảng cho các bảo đảm kinh tế và an ninh trong dài hạn; đồng thời đề xuất hình thành một cơ chế phối hợp với các quốc gia đối tác, quy tụ tối đa 30 nước, nhằm hỗ trợ Ucraina trong các lĩnh vực then chốt như phòng không, không quân, chia sẻ thông tin tình báo, bảo đảm an ninh năng lượng và tài chính.Theo giới quan sát, tiến trình tìm kiếm giải pháp hòa bình cho cuộc xung đột tại Ucraina hiện vẫn ở giai đoạn thăm dò, trong khi những khác biệt căn bản giữa tiếp tục tồn tại. Mặc dù các bên đã xác định rõ “lằn ranh đỏ” của nhau, nhưng chưa tiến tới thỏa hiệp. Mỹ tiếp tục đóng vai trò trung gian, trong khi Nga duy trì lập trường thận trọng, còn Ucraina tập trung vào các yêu cầu về bảo đảm an ninh và tái thiết./.Minh Phượng/VOV LB NgaPhó Tổng thống Mỹ JD Vance.

Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common congenital conditions worldwide, yet effective care goes far beyond repairing a visible deformity. It requires long-term, multidisciplinary support that addresses speech, hearing, dental development and psychological wellbeing. In this episode, Brian Sommerlad, a surgeon and Chairman of CLEFT, shares four decades of experience in cleft care across the UK and low and middle income countries. Drawing on extensive work in places such as Bangladesh and Nepal, he explains why short-term surgical missions alone are not enough and how well-intentioned philanthropy can sometimes undermine local health systems. The conversation explores what sustainable cleft care really looks like. Brian outlines CLEFT's distinctive approach, which focuses on training local professionals, funding non-surgical roles such as speech therapists and orthodontists, and supporting multidisciplinary teams that can continue delivering care long after external support has stepped back. Key topics include: What cleft lip and palate is, how common it is, and why it affects far more than appearance The lifelong importance of speech therapy, hearing support and dental care The psychological and social impact of cleft conditions on children and families Why teaching and capacity-building create more impact than simply doing operations How poorly designed NGO activity can unintentionally weaken local services The value of treating local clinicians, hospitals and governments as equal partners Practical insights into allocating philanthropic funding for long-term benefit Brian also reflects on his own journey from medical training in Australia to international work spanning Vietnam, Bangladesh, Iraq and beyond, offering candid observations on what has and has not worked in global health over time. This episode is a thoughtful examination of how healthcare philanthropy can move from short-term intervention to lasting change, with lessons that extend well beyond cleft care alone.

Hour 1 of Rush to Reason sets a powerful tone for Health and Wellness Wednesday as John Rush welcomes guests who challenge listeners to rethink stress, purpose, and personal health during the most demanding season of the year. Financial expert Al Smith of Golden Eagle Financial (https://goldeneaglefinancialltd.com/) opens with urgent year-end reminders and a bigger question: what if the most meaningful gift isn't money at all, but service to those quietly struggling around us? The conversation then turns inward with Owen Marcus, founder and CEO of MELD (Men's Emotional Leadership Development / https://meld.community) and author of Grow Up: A Man's Guide to Emotional Maturity. Why do so many men try to carry holiday pressure alone? Owen explains how chronic stress affects the body and reveals simple tools — breathwork, connection, and co-regulation — that can restore resilience when life feels overwhelming. Finally, Dr. Julie Gatz dives into “jingle belly” season, exposing how skipping breakfast, dehydration, cravings, and digestive distress may be sabotaging energy and brain health. Could smarter food choices, hydration, and listening to your gut be the key to surviving the holidays feeling stronger instead of stuffed? This hour teases practical insights that just might change how you finish the year. When ordering from https://naturessources.com/ or calling 800-827-7656, use code: RADIO for a discount. HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush to Reason delivers a fast-moving mix of leadership, local outrage, and global politics as John Rush challenges listeners to think bigger about accountability and strength. The hour opens with Richard Battle (https://richardbattle.com), author and leadership expert, who breaks down why great leaders stay calm under pressure while poor leaders panic. Drawing on powerful moments from history — Apollo 13, Gettysburg, and the Battle of the Bulge — Richard asks: when everything is on the line, do you react emotionally or lead with clarity and confidence? The conversation then turns fiery as John takes on Colorado's power outages, questions Xcel Energy, and lawsuits tied to the Marshall Fire, and asks whether politics and the courts are leaving everyday people in the dark. Who's really responsible — utilities, lawmakers, judges, or underprepared homeowners? Hour 2 closes with Sunny Kutcher of Young Americans Against Socialism (https://www.yaas.org), diving into President Trump's tough stance on cartels, border security, and Venezuela. Is this saber-rattling… or strength through peace? From fentanyl deaths to socialist collapse, Sunny challenges listeners to look at history and ask: what should America do when families and freedoms are at stake? HOUR 3 Hour 3 of Rush to Reason tackles high-stakes economics and global power as John Rush welcomes two sharp minds to break down what's next for America. Jim Paff of https://theconservativecaucus.com previews President Trump's Oval Office address, asking: Will Trump make the case that inflation has plateaued, confront corruption in Venezuela, and call out the Federal Reserve for holding back growth? Jim warns about China's influence in our hemisphere, the rise of NGO power, and why the Monroe Doctrine still matters. Is bold leadership abroad the key to stability at home? The hour then shifts into market reality with Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com), who dives into tech stock sell-offs, inflation data, and why the Fed's rate decisions affect everything from credit cards to mortgages. Scott also unpacks China's weakening economy, Trump's tariff strategy, and where smart money could move next. Could small-cap stocks be the sleeper play for 2026? From debt and inflation to trade wars and opportunity, Hour 3 asks: are we ready for the economic crossroads ahead?

Is this saber-rattling… or strength through peace? From fentanyl deaths to socialist collapse, Sunny challenges listeners to look at history and ask: what should America do when families and freedoms are at stake? HOUR 3 Hour 3 of Rush to Reason tackles high-stakes economics and global power as John Rush welcomes two sharp minds to break down what's next for America. Jim Paff of https://theconservativecaucus.com previews President Trump's Oval Office address, asking: Will Trump make the case that inflation has plateaued, confront corruption in Venezuela, and call out the Federal Reserve for holding back growth? Jim warns about China's influence in our hemisphere, the rise of NGO power, and why the Monroe Doctrine still matters. Is bold leadership abroad the key to stability at home? The hour then shifts into market reality with Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com), who dives into tech stock sell-offs, inflation data, and why the Fed's rate decisions affect everything from credit cards to mortgages. Scott also unpacks China's weakening economy, Trump's tariff strategy, and where smart money could move next. Could small-cap stocks be the sleeper play for 2026? From debt and inflation to trade wars and opportunity, Hour 3 asks: are we ready for the economic crossroads ahead?

Dive into the unrelenting fire of Joe Oltmann Untamed, where Joe exposes the fraudulent election system that threatens every American vote from city councils to the federal level and warns that surrendering now would slit the throat of the people. Joe fires back at claims the 2026 midterms are already locked, declaring the machines can't be fixed and the entire rigged apparatus must be torn down. Meanwhile, President Trump delivers wins for Americans: massive housing market reforms to slash mortgage costs and a "Warrior Dividend" sending $1,776 checks to every military member before Christmas. Dan Bongino announces his exit from the FBI in January, sharing his raw sacrifice, while Hollywood pushes a George Floyd biopic titled "Daddy Changed the World" a trailer that leaves Joe speechless at the propaganda machine.Retired IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agent Brian L. Berntson joins Joe to rip open America's tax slavery. With 22 years hunting money launderers and pioneering global task forces, Brian dissects the massive Somali fraud draining hundreds of millions from child nutrition programs, NGO shields hiding kickbacks, and suspicious ActBlue smurfing patterns flooding Democrat coffers. He lays bare how Americans surrender over half their earnings to a 75,000-page tax code rigged for elites while the IRS arms up to target everyday citizens—not the real cheats.Joe confronts the toxic "White Man Bad" narrative. A shocking Rasmussen poll reveals 31% of Americans disagree or aren't sure it's "OK to be white," while data shows white men disproportionately fund entitlements. Clips expose ungrateful immigrants mocking taxpayers, Portland liberals in googly-eye vests shielding illegals from ICE, heated confrontations with mayors blocking deportations, and activists swarming agents. Joe declares: the white man gave everything, welcomed all, and paid the bill—now it's time to reclaim America for Americans first. This is "Joe Oltmann Untamed": raw truth, righteous anger, and the battle cry to take our country back. Tune in and fight!

From a shocking twist in the Brown–MIT shooting investigation to staggering claims of billions in alleged government looting, this episode covers it all. Tara breaks down how online sleuths uncovered connections authorities initially denied, how a homeless Reddit tipster helped crack a murder case, and why prosecutors say Medicaid fraud isn't just overbilling—it's entirely fake companies stealing at scale. Add in visa programs, Ukraine funding, NGO money laundering, and generational debt, and the picture that emerges is unsettling. This isn't just crime—it's a system under strain.

A shocking double revelation unfolds as the Brown and MIT shooting cases collide into one bizarre truth—despite early denials from authorities. As the Internet once again races ahead of investigators, Tara breaks down how online sleuths connected the dots days before law enforcement. Then, the conversation turns explosive: billions of taxpayer dollars, alleged fraud in Minnesota, Somali-linked charities, Medicaid looting, and a system critics say enabled corruption at a historic scale. This isn't ordinary fraud—this is about power, control, and what happens when government becomes the weapon.

For the first time in weeks, Trump sounded like Trump — focused, disciplined, and deadly clear. In this episode, Tara breaks down the speech that finally connected the dots for everyday Americans: inflation + housing costs + illegal immigration + corruption — all tied together in one message. From affordability and interest rates to housing shortages, welfare incentives, crushed wages, and massive fraud, this was the explanation millions of Americans have been waiting to hear — especially those who don't live on talk radio.

Nidhi Srinivas, Professor of Management at the New School, discusses his latest book, Against NGOs: A Critical Perspective on Civil Society, Management, and Development (Cambridge University Press, 2025), which brings together management and development studies to offer a critical perspective on NGOs, describing how they emerged as key agents of development. Analysing the historical and shifting roles that NGOs play as agents of development and disseminators of management doctrines, Srinivas elaborates how these organisations function in this current epoch of capitalist crisis, where universities today retain direct links to NGO managerialism and policy creation. He reviews the current age where we are on the verge of another global recession and world war while relying on Gramsci's Prison Notebooks as a beacon for reading how we might see the world “differently” which he views as a political task, stating: “I would argue that the problem today is that a lot of education and the spheres of civil society where NGOs are based are not actually eager to offer that kind of a critique.” Observing how NGOs are often intimately connected to the system of power and delineating how the earliest definition of an NGO had nothing whatsoever to do with international development, Srinivas examines the mechanisms between governments, international agencies and civil society interrogating the relationship each holds to power, shying away from simplifying the role of NGOs as merely bad actors or glorifying the role of civil society. Srinivas emphasises the importance of critical theory and the Frankfurt School in his analysis of NGOs, confirming how ideas are shaped by history and that, in order to tackle the stages of capitalism, it is incumbent upon us to interrogate capitalism's commitment to wealth, inequality, and how these ideas work within our souls.

The United States has raised concerns with the EU for years on these matters without meaningful engagement or basic acknowledgement of U.S. concerns.

[SOURCE – AUGUST 19, 2025] As originally reported in August 2025 {SOURCE}, a group of far-left human rights advocate sent a letter to 150 U.S. colleges and universities asking them to disable the CCTV systems to protect “free expression and academic freedom across the country,” because “the Trump administration has launched an aggressive campaign against US academic institutions.” The motive for the request to disable CCTV systems as stated: “Right now these tools are facilitating the identification and punishment of student protesters, undermining activists' right to anonymity––a right the Supreme Court has affirmed as vital to free expression and political participation.” {SOURCE} The letter from ‘Fight For The Future‘ (August, 2025) came after an earlier campaign by the same group seeking to stop the use of facial recognition cameras on college campuses. {SOURCE} Source: theconservativetreehouse.com https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/2001107948312133776?s=20   network.

The university has not released an official statement explaining the deletion, but online discussions and news coverage point to it as an effort to scrub digital traces of Kharbouch during the ongoing FBI manhunt and investigation. His X (formerly Twitter) account has also been taken down, fueling theories of a cover-up by the university, media, or authorities to control the narrative around his pro-Palestine activism and alleged radical views. As of now, federal authorities have released images and a timeline of the suspect’s movements but have not publicly confirmed Kharbouch’s involvement, though some outlets report he has fled and remains at large with a $50,000 reward offered for information leading to his arrest. This is a summary of his (now deleted) manifesto: In Mustapha Kharbouch’s 2024 manifesto, “I Hear The Voice of My Ancestors Calling: From The Camps to The Campus,” published by the Institute for Palestine Studies, the author reflects on his role in the Brown University Gaza Solidarity Encampment amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. As a third-generation stateless Palestinian refugee raised in Lebanon, Kharbouch draws from his family’s history of displacement during the 1948 Nakba to frame his activism. The piece begins with lyrics from an adapted “Ancestor Song,” symbolizing a call to action and intergenerational resilience. He describes participating in non-violent protests, including an eight-day hunger strike by 19 students, arrests of 61 comrades for demanding university divestment from apartheid and illegal occupation, and organizing encampments with hundreds of participants engaging in rallies, teach-ins, art, film screenings, and chants. Kharbouch explores themes of “radical love” for land and people in Gaza, collective grief over the genocide, and solidarity as a revolutionary practice rooted in Palestinian revolutionary traditions that reject colonialism, carcerality, and imperialism. He critiques passive hope, instead advocating for active, decolonial hope through community-building and bearing witness to atrocities, like the invasion of Rafah. Influenced by queer feminist approaches (citing scholars like Sarah Ihmoud and Robin Kelley), he emphasizes transforming anger and despair into sustainable world-making, while questioning intergenerational betrayal and the cynicism inherited from survival under oppression. Ultimately, the manifesto affirms the encampment’s role in a broader student rebellion, linking campus actions to global Palestinian liberation and calling for continued, unyielding commitment despite challenges. https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001028141851013528?s=20 https://twitter.com/JamesHartline/status/2001090533746467327?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001089445194235926?s=20 https://twitter.com/ProvidenceRIPD/status/2001345847133643062?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2001345847133643062%7Ctwgr%5E8764cf1453bd57445310069de900ad0f6828d697%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fbreaking-providence-police-release-photos-person-proximity-brown%2F https://twitter.com/nypost/status/2001047137308590081?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheSCIF/status/2000985628029403418?s=20 https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2001347329585012818?s=20 https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001000454042607728?s=20 DOGE Trump Suspends ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' With UK Over Censorship and Regulations by ‘Online Safety Bill' Hurting US Tech Companies  Trump has suspended the ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' with the UK over its censorship push. The Telegraph reported: “The White House paused the tech prosperity deal amid concerns the Online Safety Act, which regulates online speech, will stifle American artificial intelligence companies, the Telegraph understands. The law allows the British government to levy large fines on tech giants it deems have facilitated hate speech.” After the rise of artificial intelligence, companies like OpenAI or xAI can face huge fines – harming their growth and giving China an edge in the AI race. “'The perception is that Britain is way out there on attempting to police what is said online, and it's caused real concern', a source with knowledge of the decision to suspend the deal said. ‘Americans went into this deal thinking Britain were going to back off regulating American tech firms but realized it was going to restrict the speech of American chatbots'.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com Geopolitical https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001217017001685167?s=20    of our Assets, and many other reasons, including Terrorism, Drug Smuggling, and Human Trafficking, the Venezuelan Regime has been designated a FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. Therefore, today, I am ordering A TOTAL AND COMPLETE BLOCKADE OF ALL SANCTIONED OIL TANKERS going into, and out of, Venezuela. The Illegal Aliens and Criminals that the Maduro Regime has sent into the United States during the weak and inept Biden Administration, are being returned to Venezuela at a rapid pace. America will not allow Criminals, Terrorists, or other Countries, to rob, threaten, or harm our Nation and, likewise, will not allow a Hostile Regime to take our Oil, Land, or any other Assets, all of which must be returned to the United States, IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In 1970, as National Security Advisor, Kissinger was briefed on and helped shape US oil import policies toward Venezuela following a visit by Venezuelan President Rafael Caldera. These policies, announced in June 1970, focused on long-term petroleum development and were positively received by Venezuela, but they represented unilateral US adjustments rather than a negotiated deal.  In 1972, Venezuela terminated a longstanding reciprocal trade agreement with the US that included concessional tariff rates on Venezuelan oil imports. Kissinger was informed of this as National Security Advisor, and the US considered maintaining low tariffs to avoid cost increases, but this was a termination process, not a new deal.   Venezuela effectively took control of oil fields and assets from US companies on two major occasions, though the processes involved nationalization and expropriation rather than outright theft without legal frameworks or compensation. These actions shifted operations from private foreign (including US) entities to state control under the Venezuelan government.In the 1970s, Venezuela nationalized its entire oil industry, which had been largely developed and operated by foreign companies since the early 20th century. On January 1, 1976, the government officially took over, creating the state-owned Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA). This affected major US firms like Exxon (formerly Standard Oil), Gulf Oil, and others, which had held concessions. The companies were provided compensation as part of the process, and it was generally seen as an expected transition in global oil politics at the time, without major disruptions to US supply. In 2007, under President Hugo Chávez, Venezuela escalated state control by mandating that foreign oil projects in the Orinoco Belt (a massive heavy oil reserve) convert to joint ventures where PDVSA held at least a 60% stake. Companies like Chevron complied, but ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips refused, leading to the government expropriating their assets. International arbitration tribunals later ruled these actions unlawful, awarding ExxonMobil about $1.6 billion and ConocoPhillips over $8 billion in compensation (though Venezuela has contested and delayed payments). This has been a point of ongoing tension, with US firms pursuing Venezuelan assets globally to enforce the awards. These events did not involve taking oil fields directly from the US government but from American corporations with investments in Venezuela, reflecting broader shifts toward resource nationalism. https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2001087786879795546?s=20 War/Peace Zelensky: If Putin rejects peace plan, US must give us weapons The Ukrainian leader issued the warning as Russia said it would not drop its claims to land it believes to be its own  So Zelensky, NATO EU DS rewrote the plan knowing Russia wouldn’t accept it.  Source: thetimes.com Zelensky is stealing the election before it begins The overstaying Ukrainian leader has made a show of agreeing to hold a vote – but his preconditions make a mockery of it   The often-heard claim that Ukraine cannot hold presidential elections in wartime, by the way, is badly misleading, and a thoroughly politically motivated misrepresentation of the facts: In reality, the Ukrainian constitution only prohibits parliamentary elections in time of war. Elections for the presidency are impeded by ordinary laws which can, of course, easily and legally be changed by the majority which Zelensky controls in parliament. That is merely a question of political will, not legality.  Zelensky and his fixers are planning to shift the whole presidential election online. If they do, falsification in Zelensky's favor is de facto guaranteed or mail in ballots Source: rt.com Hegseth Orders Christmas Bonuses For War Department Top Performers  The War Department is rewarding its highest performers with monetary awards worth 15 to 25% of base pay, The Daily Wire can first report, rewards intended to reflect the “historic successes” of the past 10 months. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth directed all War Department department heads and principal staff assistants to “take immediate action to recognize and reward [the] very best” of the department's civilian workforce with “meaningful monetary awards consistent with the relevant existing civilian awards authorities for each pay system,” according to a memorandum for senior Pentagon leadership first obtained by The Daily Wire. The distribution of bonuses — which could reach up to $25,000 — is also in line with the Trump administration's broader efforts to make the federal government function more like a private-sector business.

The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation? Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal.   The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia's state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.  The newly released documents suggest that the circumstances surrounding Uranium One were never fully investigated, leaving unresolved questions about how a strategic U.S. asset came under Russian control – and whether potential criminal conduct went unexamined due to internal delays and legal disputes.

Somali fraudsters were involved in almost every case. Ex-Marine planned attack in New Orleans that would ‘recreate’ Waco, officials say Plans to “carry out an attack” in New Orleans were thwarted after an ex-Marine was arrested while on the way to the Louisiana city with guns and body armor in the car, according to court documents obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press. Micah James Legnon, 28, was charged with threats in interstate commerce. Federal authorities said they had been surveilling Legnon due to ties to an extremist anti-capitalist and anti-government group. Four members of the group were arrested Friday in the Mojave Desert, east of Los Angeles, as they were rehearsing a foiled plot to set off bombs in Southern California on New Year's Eve, authorities said.  Legnon believed it was time to “recreate” Waco with an attack in New Orleans, authorities said in court documents. They pointed to a Dec. 4 chat message by Legnon written under the alias “Kateri The Witch” the day after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrived in New Orleans. Legnon's alias had “she/her” written beside it, but jail records referred to Legnon as male.

If the Senate does not act before then, the bill dies and would need to be reintroduced in the next Congress.In practice, for time-sensitive legislation like the NDAA, the Senate typically votes shortly after the House (often within days or weeks) due to bipartisan urgency around defense authorizations, but this is not a requirement. https://twitter.com/PressSec/status/2001031213516304877?s=20 https://twitter.com/AGPamBondi/status/2000991371952357796?s=20   achievements will fail.

In fact, he admitted to having a “very possessive” personality. “No, she meant that I'm — you see, I don't drink alcohol. So everybody knows that — but I've often said that if I did, I'd have a very good chance of being an alcoholic. I have said that many times about myself, I do. It's a very possessive personality,” Trump told the Post. “I've said that many times about myself. I'm fortunate I'm not a drinker. If I did, I could very well, because I've said that — what's the word? Not possessive — possessive and addictive type personality. Oh, I've said it many times, many times before,” he added. Trump went on to tell the Post that he agrees the Vanity Fair article was a total hit job and Wiles's remarks were taken out of context.  . Source: thegatewaypundit.com  Based on recent reports, the entire Trump administration appears to be standing by White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles following the Vanity Fair article, with no notable dissent.   Specific individuals who have expressed support include: Name Position Donald Trump President JD Vance Vice President Doug Burgum Secretary of the Interior Scott Bessent Secretary of the Treasury Chris Wright Secretary of Energy Lori Chavez-DeRemer Secretary of Labor Linda McMahon Secretary of Education Scott Turner Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Brooke Rollins Secretary of Agriculture Sean Duffy Secretary of Transportation Kelly Loeffler SBA Administrator Lee Zeldin EPA Administrator Russ Vought OMB Director Pam Bondi Attorney General Kash Patel FBI Director Karoline Leavitt White House Press Secretary The [DS] has been trying to divide Trump adminitration from the beginning, they want people questioning everything, they are trying to have people doubt the administration.  how do you show the people that you are not divided.   Trump and team just changed the narrative, they took control, Susie and team most likely set this up, this way the team can tell the world they are united not divided.

This week on Sinica, I speak with Mark Sidel, the Doyle Bascom Professor of Law and Public Affairs at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a senior fellow at the International Center for Not for Profit Law. Mark has written extensively on law and philanthropy in China and across Asia, including widely cited analyses of how the Chinese security state came to play a central role in managing foreign civil society organizations. Since the Law on the Management of Domestic Activities of Overseas NGOs took effect on January 1, 2017, China has introduced a remarkably comprehensive, vertically integrated system of oversight for foreign NGOs, foundations, and nonprofits.We discuss how this system combines securitization and political risk management with selective accommodation of service provision and technical expertise, Mark's typology of organizational responses (survivors, hibernators, regionalizers, work-arounders, and leavers), the requirement that foreign NGOs secure professional supervisory units, the impact on China's domestic nonprofit ecosystem, and what this tells us about the party-state's long-term vision for controlled engagement with the outside world.4:43 – The landscape of non-state organizations before the 2016 law 7:06 – What changed: color revolutions, Arab Spring, and domestic anxieties 9:08 – Public security intellectuals and their influence on the law 11:51 – How registration and temporary activity filing systems work in practice 13:48 – Why the Ministry of Public Security, not Civil Affairs, was put in charge 19:31 – The professional supervisory unit requirement and dependency relationships22:48 – How the state shifted foreign NGO work away from advocacy without banning it26:17 – Mark's typology: survivors, hibernators, regionalizers, work-arounders, and leavers 35:19 – What correlates with success for those who have survived 40:41 – Impact on China's domestic nonprofit ecosystem and professional intermediaries 45:54 – What makes China's system distinctive compared to India, Egypt, Russia, and Vietnam 50:19 – The Article 53 problem and university partnerships 55:32 – Advice for mid-sized foundations or NGOs considering work in China todayPaying it Forward: Neysun Mahboubi and the Penn Project on the Future of U.S.-China RelationsRecommendations:Mark: Everyday Democracy: Civil Society, Youth, and the Struggle Against Authoritarian Culture in China by Anthony SpiresKaiser: The music of Steve Morse (Dixie Dregs, The Dregs, Steve Morse Band)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nongovernmental organizations (NGO's) are about to lose a great deal of federal government money. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that tax dollars meant for foreign aid have instead been heavily used to prop up NGOs. And many NGOs have gotten involved in programs that facilitate mass migration, in what's now being referred to as the “refugee industrial complex.”We'll discuss this topic and others in this episode of “Crossroads.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

The winner of Chile's presidential election, José Antonio Kast, is the son of a German Nazi official.

Dr. Drew Pinsky goes scorched earth on what he calls California's “Homelessness Industrial Complex” - He breaks down exactly how California has built a billion-dollar machine designed to profit from bureaucracy... all while keeping addicts sick, untreated, and abandoned on city sidewalks.  From corrupt NGO's to dirty politicians and woke ideology - nothing is left unexposed. Then we get into the political brawl between Halle Berry and Gavin Newsom—why the Governor vetoed the ‘Menopause Care Equity Act' twice, and why denying the life-changing benefits of HRT to men and women in mid-life isn't just bad politics... it's a medical travesty.And finally, he tears into the exploding controversy around Kennedy's decision to remove the Hep B vaccine from the CDC's childhood vaccine schedule as well as whispered conversations about a potential ‘Black Box Warning' on COVID shots for our kids and teens.

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation on Thursday announced a new plan for operating the Central Valley Project, a vast system of pumps, dams, and canals that direct water southward from the state’s wetter north. It follows an executive order President Donald Trump signed in January calling for more water to flow to farmers, arguing the state was wasting the precious resource in the name of protecting endangered fish species. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum said the plan will help the federal government “strengthen California’s water resilience.” It takes effect Friday. But California officials and environmental groups blasted the move, saying sending significantly more water to farmlands could threaten water delivery to the rest of the state and would harm salmon and other fish. Most of the state’s water is in the north, but most of its people are in the south.

Representative Nick Begich (AK-At Large) introduced House Joint Resolution 131, stripping Biden-era restrictions on oil and gas exploration in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Rep. Begich’s resolution has passed the House of Representatives and the Senate and is headed to President Trump’s desk for signature. Alaska's congressional delegation on Thursday succeeded in stripping Biden-era protections from the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, moving to expand opportunities for drilling there. The U.S. Senate voted to eliminate the 2024 leasing program for the refuge that put much of the refuge's 1.6-million-acre coastal plain off-limits to potential drilling.  The vote does a lot more than just open the door for potential oil and gas activity.  This is another step in unlocking America’s treasure chest. The areas in question in ANWR are estimated to hold 7.7 billion barrels of oil recoverable with current technology, and the U.S. Geological Survey has estimated that there may be hundreds of millions of barrels in other areas to the west of the ANWR sites.

The Feds charged former DEA Deputy Chief of the Office of Financial Operations Paul Campo and friend Robert Sensi for conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. Paul Campo and Robert Sensi were charged with narcoterrorism, terrorism, narcotics distribution, and money laundering charges. Campo and Sensi were arrested on Thursday afternoon in New York, according to the DOJ. Campo and Sensi agreed to launder $12 million and participate in narcotics trafficking for the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, a/k/a Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion or CJNG. Per the Department of Justice: As part of the scheme, CAMPO and SENSI agreed to launder approximately $12,000,000 of CJNG narcotics proceeds; laundered approximately $750,000 by converting cash into cryptocurrency; and provided a payment for approximately 220 kilograms of cocaine on the understanding that the payment would trigger the distribution and sale of the narcotics worth approximately $5,000,000, for which CAMPO and SENSI would (i) receive directly a portion of the narcotics proceeds as profit; and (ii) receive a further commission upon the laundering of the balance of the narcotics proceeds.

During his appearance on Friday on the Sirius XM The Megyn Kelly Show podcast, Kelly started out by asking Patel if they believe they have the “proper suspect in custody” — if Tyler Robinson is “in fact, the man who killed Kirk.” Patel didn’t hesitate in the slightest and answered, “Yes.” The host then brought up one of the wild accusations that have been made by Owens, which includes claiming that Kirk’s own friends and his organization allegedly knew and approved of his murder. Insane. “Do you have any credible reason to believe that anyone connected with the Turning Point organization had anything to do with Charlie’s death?” Kelly asked. Patel’s response: “Zero.” He was then pressed about other claims that Owens has made about the alleged involvement of foreign governments in Kirk’s assassination, like French paratroopers, Egyptian Air Force planes flying out of Provo, Utah, and “potential underground assassins traveling through unseen tunnels,” as the producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, Blake Neff, previously explained. “At this time, the FBI doesn’t have credible information to connect any foreign governments to it,” Patel said. The FBI director made it clear that the investigation is continuing and they are looking into everything, no matter how small. “We are not done just because we arrest someone, just like in the pipe bomber case,” Patel said. “We don’t just say, Okay, we’re done, on to the next. The investigative team continues to work with the Utah authorities, and they’re deriving their own leads and coming back to us saying, ‘Hey, can you look at this piece of information? Can we get a search warrant on this account?

Bondi's order is part of a broader counterterrorism plan after President Donald Trump's directives targeting the Antifa movement and organized political violence, Reuters and Bloomberg Law reported, citing a Thursday memo from Bondi. The FBI must provide within 30 days a list of groups “engaged in acts that may constitute domestic terrorism” along with strategies to disrupt them, with an emphasis on left-wing extremists, the memo reportedly says.  Bondi's memo directs law enforcement agencies to unearth whatever intelligence files they have on Antifa groups for investigators and to investigate unsolved domestic terrorism incidents over the past five years, Reuters and Bloomberg Law reported. The incidents may include the “doxxing” of law enforcement officers' personal information and threats against Supreme Court justices. The FBI must also streamline its tip line to allow members of the public to “send media” on suspected domestic terrorism, the memo says, according to Reuters.

The intent seems to be a return to the Monroe Doctrine by increasing the United States military presence in the Western Hemisphere, taking on the drug cartels, enhancing border security, making trade deals that are better for the United States, and enhancing American energy production. That’s not the worst high-level take on the NSS, but a look at the actual document is illustrative. The NSS states as its purpose: To ensure that America remains the world's strongest, richest, most powerful, and most successful country for decades to come, our country needs a coherent, focused strategy for how we interact with the world. And to get that right, all Americans need to know what, exactly, it is we are trying to do and why. A “strategy” is a concrete, realistic plan that explains the essential connection between ends and means: it begins from an accurate assessment of what is desired and what tools are available, or can realistically be created, to achieve the desired outcomes. A strategy must evaluate, sort, and prioritize. Not every country, region, issue, or cause—however worthy—can be the focus of American strategy. The purpose of  foreign policy is the protection of core national interests; that is the sole focus of this strategy. One of the more interesting (but not surprising) pieces of this NSS is the overt and robust return to the Monroe Doctrine, an early 19th-century policy intended to restrict further European colonization of the Western Hemisphere and to ensure American dominance in that region. The modern take on this doctrine by the Trump administration uses American power by employing both internal and external security measures. The NSS states: American policy should focus on enlisting regional champions that can help create tolerable stability in the region, even beyond those partners' borders. These nations would help us stop illegal and destabilizing migration, neutralize cartels, nearshore manufacturing, and develop local private economies, among other things. We will reward and encourage the region's governments, political parties, and movements broadly aligned with our principles and strategy. But we must not overlook governments with different outlooks with whom we nonetheless share interests and who want to work with us. Source: redstate.com The Monroe Doctrine is a foundational principle of United States foreign policy, first articulated by President James Monroe in his annual message to Congress on December 2, 1823.   It declared that the Western Hemisphere was no longer open to European colonization or interference, while affirming that the U.S. would not meddle in existing European colonies or internal affairs.   Essentially, it warned European powers—particularly those in the Holy Alliance (Russia, Austria, and Prussia)—against attempting to extend their influence or establish new colonies in the Americas, positioning the U.S. as a protector of independent nations in the region The doctrine emerged amid concerns over European monarchies potentially aiding Spain in reconquering its former Latin American colonies, which had recently gained independence. It was largely drafted by Secretary of State John Quincy Adams and reflected growing American confidence following the War of 1812.  At the time, the U.S. lacked the military power to enforce it fully, so it relied on British naval support, as Britain also opposed European rivals in the Americas for trade reasons.Key excerpts from Monroe’s address include: The American continents “are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers.” Any attempt by Europe to extend its political system to the Western Hemisphere would be viewed as “dangerous to our peace and safety.”   Significance and EvolutionInitially more symbolic than enforceable, the Monroe Doctrine evolved into a justification for U.S. intervention in Latin America during the 19th and 20th centuries. For instance: In the mid-1800s, it intertwined with Manifest Destiny to support U.S. territorial expansion, such as during the Mexican-American War.  President Theodore Roosevelt’s 1904 “Corollary” expanded it to allow U.S. intervention in Latin American countries to prevent European involvement, leading to actions like the occupation of Cuba and the Dominican Republic. It influenced Cold War policies, framing U.S. opposition to communism in the hemisphere as a defense against external threats. Critics, especially in Latin America, have viewed it as a tool for U.S. imperialism, enabling dominance over sovereign nations. Though less invoked today, it remains a symbol of U.S. hemispheric influence and anti-colonial rhetoric. facebook.com https://twitter.com/onechancefreedm/status/1996970776373735933?s=20 https://twitter.com/JoeLang51440671/status/1996992569746567173?s=20   other hand, I can see how we help real allies with aid when needed, as long as we get something of economic value in return.

Republican leadership planned Thursday to kick-off the procedural process to confirm 88 of President Donald Trump's nominees in a bloc vote, but were initially thwarted by Democratic Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, who challenged the package for violating Senate rules. When Republicans refiled the package later on Thursday, the conference included an additional nine nominees, bringing the total to nearly 100.  The Senate has confirmed 314 civilian nominees as of Thursday evening, according to a tally by the Senate Republican Communications Center. The 97-member bloc would bring the Senate to more than 410 civilian confirmations in the first year of Trump's second term. “That far outstrips total confirmations by this point in President Biden's term, and in President Trump's first term as well,” Thune said Thursday. Thune also said that Senate Republicans have virtually cleared the nominations backlog. Before Republicans changed Senate precedent to allow for certain nominees to be confirmed in groups, more than 150 of the president's picks were awaiting floor consideration. The Senate approved a 48-member nominations package in September and an additional 108 of the president's picks in a single group vote in October.

CAFE stands for “Corporate Average Fuel Economy.” An easy definition, via the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, is a regulation: …[on] how far our vehicles must travel on a gallon of fuel. NHTSA sets CAFE standards for passenger cars and for light trucks (collectively, light-duty vehicles), and separately sets fuel consumption standards for medium- and heavy-duty trucks and engines. NHTSA also regulates the fuel-economy window stickers on new vehicles.

He believed in protectionism (using high tariffs to protect American industries and workers from foreign competition). Just like President Trump. Between 1897–1901 the United States had just become the wealthiest and highest-output economy on EARTH, surpassing the United Kingdom as the world's #1 manufacturing nation and #1 economy in total GDP By 1900 U.S. industrial production was roughly equal to that of Britain, Germany, and France COMBINED.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Blasts Los Angeles County After It Votes to Ban ICE Agents from Wearing Masks Los Angeles County's far-left Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to advance an unprecedented ordinance that would ban law enforcement officers, including federal immigration agents, from wearing masks while working in unincorporated areas of the county. The proposal passed 4-0, with only Supervisor Kathryn Barger abstaining. A final vote is scheduled for next week, and the ordinance would take effect in January 2026, according to the LA Times. Legal experts say federal immigration agents would not be required to follow a county mask ban. The county's top lawyer, Dawyn Harrison, has said she suspects the federal government will likely argue that the county law violates the Constitution, which states that federal law takes precedence over conflicting local statutes.  https://twitter.com/USAttyEssayli/status/1996040656733814854?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996040656733814854%7Ctwgr%5E71ecedc2cdf5f5bfec40c6e10a4a461e8ffa25fd%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fassistant-u-s-attorney-blasts-los-angeles-county%2F   by the media and local politicians.

The “war on narco-terrorists” that Secretary Hegseth is bragging about is being run on a legal foundation poured years before Trump ever touched the Oval Office desk. Obama normalized the presidential kill list. He campaigned in 2008 promising rule of law, transparency, and restraint. He delivered a tenfold increase in drone strikes; a White House “Terror Tuesday” meeting where officials literally flipped through PowerPoint slides picking who lived or died; and a legal doctrine allowing the president to kill U.S. citizens without trial, notice, or judicial review. That doctrine – once unthinkable – is now standard operating procedure. Obama's Director of National Intelligence openly admitted in 2010 that the administration was targeting Americans based on vague criteria like whether a citizen was “involved” in a group “trying to attack us.” That’s not evidence… that’s vibes. When civil-liberties groups sued to force the government to explain the legal basis, Obama declared the entire matter a state secret. Meaning: the president could now kill you, and no court was allowed to ask why. The judiciary rubber-stamped it. Both parties embraced it. And the public largely applauded it. Then came the Awlaki killings. Obama ordered the drone assassination of: •⁠ ⁠Anwar al-Awlaki, an American cleric •⁠ ⁠Samir Khan, an American citizen standing next to him •⁠ ⁠Awlaki's 16-year-old son, killed two weeks later at a café The White House smeared the kid as a “21-year-old terrorist.” The next week a birth certificate proved he was a Colorado teenager with zero ties to extremism. The administration shrugged. Obama famously told aides: “Turns out I'm really good at killing people.” And Washington – media, political class, and voters – rewarded him. Fast-forward to 2025. Trump isn't inventing anything new in Venezuela. He's using the exact precedents Obama left behind: Unreviewable executive kill authority, expanded definitions of “enemy combatant,” secret memos. No congressional oversight, no geographic limits, zero court supervision. Obama created the kill switch. Trump just slammed it. If you cheered the drone program when your guy was doing it, you already endorsed what’s happening now. If you let the government redefine due process as “whatever we decide in secret,” you already consented to the next president weaponizing that power. And if you normalize extrajudicial force abroad, eventually it comes home. Obama built the architecture. Trump moved in. And Venezuela is learning what happens when a precedent meets a president with fewer brakes  EU corruption scandal could take down von der Leyen – Politico A corruption probe into former EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini has thrown European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's position into jeopardy, with opponents preparing to turn the affair into a fresh push to remove her, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing officials in the bloc. Mogherini, who served as the EU's top diplomat from 2014 to 2019 and is now rector of the College of Europe, was detained on Tuesday. She was formally accused by the European Public Prosecutor's Office of procurement fraud, corruption, conflict of interest, and breaches of professional secrecy over an EU-funded diplomatic academy program. In the wake of the scandal, von der Leyen “is facing the starkest challenge to the EU's accountability in a generation,” with her rivals renewing calls for a new no-confidence vote, Politico reported. source:rt.com NATO Members Commit More Than $1 Billion to Purchase U.S. Weapons for Ukraine NATO officials from Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Poland pledged hundreds of millions more in U.S.-made weapons under the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) scheme, Ukrainian media reported. Amid Russian gains on the battlefield, they insist Ukraine must be armed “to keep the fight going.” The alliance offered these commitments while being accused of attempting to sabotage peace talks. Canada, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, and the U.K. all announced new contributions, pushing the total put toward U.S.-made weapons bound for Ukraine toward $5 billion this year alone. These newly allocated funds come at a time when many European governments, increasingly unpopular at home, are cutting domestic programs and warning of budget shortfalls. Source: thegatewaypundit.com Leaked Transcript of EU Conference Call with Zelenskyy Highlights Fear of Trump Securing Peace for Ukraine Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was in Paris talking to Emmanuel Macron last weekend while Rubio, Witkoff and Kushner were meeting with Ukraine officials in Florida.  This telephone call is reported to have taken place the following day, on Monday. French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy together with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and European Council President António Costa held a conference call. A transcript of the call was leaked to Spiegel, a German news outlet. According to the narrative the assembled group of EU leaders were discussing how the Trump administration was going to betray Ukraine in order to get a peace deal with Russia. The gist of the narrative sounds accurate, though some of the EU leaders are denying the specifics of the wording used. The EU is very worried President Trump may formulate a peace agreement then present the final terms to Ukraine without the EU being involved in the construct of the details. The EU is opposed to any peaceful end to the conflict, because the EU and NATO have positioned their collective economies to only benefit if the military spending continues; they are backstopping their spending with the confiscated Russian assets.   Source: theconservativetreehouse.com   Medical/False Flags https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1996567491334803864?s=20 [DS] Agenda https://twitter.com/WallStreetApes/status/1996550058809188740?s=20   “Ilhan and this group, they spent a lot of money” “So, the people that work for Ilhan (0mar) are actually counting the ballots, counting the vote?” “They (Ilhan Omar’s campaign staffers) become a manager, in the precinct too.” Somalians who don't speak English are also told out how to vote “They walk with you to the booth and then they vote.

It is on purpose. It is a feature, not a bug,” Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet J. Dhillon told the Just the News, No Noise television show on Wednesday night. “And the goal is to cram as many people on there and make voters who are not particularly engaged, make it easy for someone else to help them fill out their ballot and return it for them when they didn’t care enough to do it themselves,” she added. “What we can do at the federal government level is ensure that our federal election laws are observed, and that includes each state’s requirement to keep clean voter rolls,” she added. “That is a fundamental basic.” Dhillon spoke one day after her division filed lawsuits against six Democrat-run states — Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington state and Vermont — seeking to compel them to turn over to the DOJ their voter rolls to be inspected for abnormalities, outdated names or noncompliant names. She also struck a deal last week with North Carolina to force it to review and fix over 100,000 voters’ names on rolls in that battleground state that were added without complying with state law. Dhillon said her office is now on track to force through litigation, settlement or voluntary efforts at least 26 states to clean up voter rolls. “We’re now in litigation with 14 states. So the six yesterday included Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington State and Vermont. That adds to eight we already had going,” she said.
