Nghe trọn nội dung sách nói Giọt Lệ Quỷ trên ứng dụng Voiz FM: https://voiz.vn/play/203/ Đôi khi, kẻ ra tay giết người lại không phải là hung thủ thật sự. Giọt Lệ Quỷ sở hữu rất nhiều nút thắt bất ngờ – đúng với phong cách quen thuộc của Jeffery Deaver. Nhưng điểm hấp dẫn bậc nhất của cuốn sách nằm ở cách tác giả trao cho mỗi nhân vật một giọng nói riêng biệt, không ai giống ai. Đặc biệt nhất là giọng kể ngô nghê, đơn giản của hung thủ Digger – một sự đối lập đầy ám ảnh. Ở từng thời điểm, người đọc có thể chuyển từ kinh ngạc, giận dữ sang cảm giác thương cảm bất ngờ dành cho một “cỗ máy giết người” không tự nguyện, khi tác giả dần hé lộ toàn bộ hoàn cảnh đã đẩy hắn vào con đường tội lỗi. Giọt Lệ Quỷ vì thế không chỉ là một tiểu thuyết trinh thám gay cấn, mà còn là câu chuyện sâu sắc về thao túng, số phận và nhân tính.

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.

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.

Sôcôla Việt Nam tìm đường thâm nhập thị trường châu Âu

TẠP CHÍ KINH TẾ

Vào những ngày cuối năm, sắp đến Giáng Sinh và Tết Dương lịch, ở châu Âu người ta thường tặng cho nhau những hộp sôcôla, ít tiền thì mua những hộp sôcôla trong các siêu thi, sang hơn thì mua trong các cửa hàng sôcôla cao cấp. Năm 2025, thị trường sôcôla toàn cầu ước tính đạt khoảng 127 tỷ đôla, tăng nhẹ so với mức 123 tỷ đôla năm 2024, với tốc độ tăng trưởng trung bình khoảng 4,8%/năm. Riêng ở Pháp, theo số liệu của nghiệp đoàn ngành sản xuất sôcôla, trong năm 2024, mức tiêu thụ trung bình là 12,3 kg/năm/hộ gia đình. Người Pháp có xu hướng tiêu thụ nhiều sôcôla đen hơn phần còn lại của châu Âu (30% so với mức trung bình 5% ở châu Âu). Cacao là nguyên liệu chính cho sôcôla. So với các khu vực sản xuất cacao lớn trên thế giới như châu Phi chiếm tới 71%, Trung Mỹ 11% và châu Á 18%, Việt Nam thuộc nhóm quốc gia có sản lượng nhỏ, chỉ khoảng vài nghìn tấn/năm. Ở Việt Nam, cacao được trồng chủ yếu tại các vùng Tây Nguyên, Đông Nam Bộ, Đồng bằng sông Cửu Long và Duyên hải Nam Trung bộ. Tuy sản lượng nhỏ, cacao của Việt Nam có hương vị đặc biệt, được xem là rất phù hợp với các nhà làm sôcôla thủ công, nhưng cũng có nhiều tiềm năng về chế biến sôcôla cao cấp. Hạt cacao trồng ở khu vực đồng bằng sông Cửu Long được đánh giá là có chất lượng hạng nhất thế giới. Mặc dù vậy, ngành chế biến sôcôla ở Việt Nam nói chung vẫn còn ở quy mô nhỏ. Các cơ sở làm sôcôla thủ công đa số là xưởng nhỏ, chủ yếu hướng đến khách du lịch, chứ chưa đủ năng lực cạnh tranh ở quy mô xuất khẩu lớn. Như vậy, sôcôla sản xuất từ cacao Việt Nam phải làm cách nào để thâm nhập được thị trường châu Âu nói chung và Pháp nói riêng ? Hôm nay, mời quý vị theo dõi bài phỏng vấn với ông Francesco Trần Văn Liêng, chủ tịch Hội đồng quản trị kiêm tổng giám đốc Công ty Cổ phần Cacao Việt Nam ( Vinacacao ): Thưa ông Francesco Trần Văn Liêng, trước hết xin ông cho biết là cacao Việt Nam có những đặc tính nào khác với cacao từ những khu vực khác trên thế giới? Cây ca cao thì trồng hơi khó, nó không thích khí hậu cao nguyên mà thích đồng bằng hơn. Cho đến bây giờ châu Âu vẫn phụ thuộc vào các nguồn cung từ Côte d'Ivoire và Ghana. Việt Nam nổi bật lên thành một quốc gia cung cấp hạt sôcôla mà chúng tôi gọi là premium, vì hạt cacao Việt Nam có 136 hương vị phản ánh thổ nhưỡng của quốc gia. Ví dụ Đồng bằng sông Cửu Long là nơi đất tốt, mưa nhiều, dồi dào phù sa, tạo ra hương vị mang tính chất fruity. Fruity tức là vị chua nhẹ, ngọt thanh, chứ không phải là giống như nutty. Nutty là của Côte d'Ivoire và Ghana, những vùng cao nguyên đất đỏ, hương vị của nó hạt khô. Cho nên Việt Nam tận dụng ưu thế này mà sản xuất ra những loại hạt sôcôla ngon và người châu Âu, đặc biệt là hãng Puratos, hay là Vinacacao của chúng tôi làm ra những thanh sôcôla có vị tương đối đặc biệt. Vì đất tốt mưa nhiều cho nên cơm xung quanh hạt cacao rất dày và khi chúng tôi ủ hạt thì độ ngọt thơm và chua nhẹ đi sâu vào trong hạt và lúc đó từ đó mình làm ra sôcôla. Những nhà nghiên cứu như của đại học Ghent của Bỉ tìm ra được 136 hương vị của hạt cacao Việt Nam. Đó là niềm hãnh diện rất là lớn khi mà hiện nay số 1, số 2 thế giới là Côte D'Ivoire và Ghana. Việt Nam về lượng thì không bằng, nhưng về giá thì lúc nào cũng cao hơn. Ví dụ như hiện nay với 6.000 đôla bạn có thể mua 1 tấn hạt cacao của Côte D'Ivoire và Ghana, chứ cacao Việt Nam thì phải trả tới 12.000 đôla. Giống như câu chuyện về cà phê. Ví dụ Brazil sản xuất rất nhiều hạt cà phê. Nhưng khi bạn uống cà phê thì bạn đi tìm những origin, những nguồn gốc như Colombia, Ethiopia hoặc Guatemala. Những quốc gia này làm ra những loại hạt mà nhiều hãng lớn như Starbucks bán với tư cách giống như single origin. Hạt cacao cũng vậy. Hạt cacao Việt Nam được xem như là single origin, tức là hạt cacao thuần Việt. Theo quan sát của ông thì hiện nay các cơ sở sản xuất sô cô la từ ca cao Việt Nam có quy mô như thế nào và họ đã sản xuất được bao nhiêu cũng như là đã xuất khẩu được sang những nước nào? Phần lớn các hãng sản xuất sôcôla hiện nay là 'small holders', tức là những người tương đối nhỏ và làm sôcôla mang hương vị hình hài của đất nước nhiều hơn, pha với những trái cây vùng nhiệt đới, đặc biệt là dừa. Đó là một thế mạnh và nói về quy mô thì đây là ngành không chạy theo số lượng, bởi vì nếu chạy theo số lượng thì rõ ràng mình đấu không lại những quốc gia như Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana hoặc Indonesia  Trong số những cơ sở hiện nay, chỉ có Vinacacao là 20 năm trong ngành, chúng tôi có quy mô khá là lớn và dẫn đầu được trong ngành, đặc biệt là ngành bán lẻ. Chúng tôi làm ra thành phẩm cuối cùng mà các bạn có thể thấy trong siêu thị lớn ở Việt Nam, ở các sân bay lớn. Chúng tôi sang Bỉ làm ăn theo kiểu hiệp thương về mutual, tức là họ bán hàng cho mình thì họ cũng phải mua gì của mình, hai bên cùng có lợi. Bằng cách đó chúng tôi thâm nhập vào thị trường của nhau, tức là mình mua những sản phẩm độc lạ, hay của Bỉ và Bỉ cũng sẽ mua lại những sản phẩm độc lạ, hay của Vinacacao. Đây là một  phương thức mà chúng tôi sử dụng để có thể thâm nhập vào những thị trường khó tính.  Các nhãn lớn mà các bạn thấy thì đều có mặt ở Việt Nam, nhưng ngành sôcôla trong nước thì có lợi thế là khống chế được chi phí sản xuất. Ví dụ Vinacao là trồng được cây ca cao, phát triển được vườn cây, chủ động được nguồn hạt, nó có khả năng chế biến sang sô cô la, có thể là phát triển thành phẩm, có thể xây dựng thương hiệu, thì nó sẽ tránh được những biến động cơ bản về giá cả. Đó cũng là một lợi thế mà Vinacacao và các doanh nghiệp nhỏ lẻ có thể khai thác. Nhưng để xâm nhập được thị trường châu Âu, sôcôla "made in Vietnam" phải đáp ứng những tiêu chuẩn gì? Để vào thị trường châu Âu, chúng tôi có những chiến lược khá là cụ thể. Thứ nhất, mình sẽ không đi về lượng, đặc biệt là mình không bán hàng trăm ngàn tấn, hoặc cả triệu tấn như Ghana và Côte d'Ivoire, mà chúng tôi chọn những hạt cacao premium và từ đó làm ra những loại sôcôla single origin.  Hiện nay Châu Âu có đặt ra những rào cản mới. Ngoài các tiêu chuẩn về an toàn vi sinh thực phẩm, hoặc chất lượng như ISO hoặc là FSSC, hiện nay cộng đồng chung Châu Âu, vì ý thức bảo vệ môi trường, đã đưa ra luật mới, áp dụng vào tháng 12/2025 này: Những hạt ca cao nào mà sản xuất từ vùng đất không phá rừng thì mới đạt tiêu chuẩn nhập vào châu Âu. Đây là một luật khó, nhưng nó lại tạo thuận lợi cho những quốc gia như Việt Nam, đi sau thì sẽ có chuẩn bị tốt hơn, còn những quốc gia đã có truyền thống gần 100 năm nay xuất khẩu hạt lấy từ nhiều nguồn khác nhau, từ rừng rậm hoặc phá rừng để trồng cây thì hiện nay giống như  là phải "sắp lại một bàn cờ mới". Các vùng đất Đồng bằng Sông Cửu Long từ xưa giờ được kiểm chứng rất rõ là không phá rừng. Đó là vùng canh tác tự nhiên của người Việt Nam mình có thể là từ vài trăm năm. Đó là thuận lợi rất lớn. Và khi mình lấy những certification, ví dụ như từ Rainforest Alliance, những tổ chức phi lợi nhuận dùng các không ảnh vệ tinh để biết được những vùng nào trong 14 năm vừa qua nhờ phá rừng mà có. Hoặc là những vùng nào trong 14 năm qua vẫn  không có tình trạng này. Khi có những chứng thư đó thì mình dễ được chấp nhận bởi các nước EU, những quốc gia tiêu thụ sôcôla nhiều nhất thế giới.  Chúng tôi được biết là vừa qua các ông có sang Pháp để thăm dò thị trường. Vậy thì qua chuyến đi đó, ông thấy là Vinacacao có thể thi hành những biện pháp nào để có thể thâm nhập thị trường Pháp dễ dàng hơn? Vừa rồi đại sứ Việt Nam, rồi bộ Công Thương, kết hợp với các hiệp hội ở Pháp về thực phẩm và đặc biệt là có sự tham dự của Monoprix, một hệ thống siêu thị khá lớn ở Pháp, chúng tôi có một buổi hội thảo rất có ý nghĩa  tại Paris. Trong buổi hội thảo đó, tôi cũng đặt vấn đề thương mại hai chiều, có nghĩa là những sản phẩm sôcôla nào ngon của Pháp thì chúng tôi sẵn sàng đưa về Việt Nam và đồng thời cũng đặt vấn đề là các ông hãy xem xét để có thể mua ngược lại. Rất may một đại diện của một hãng lớn là Valrhona, sở hữu thương hiệu La Maison du Chocolat Paris, rất quan tâm tới việc hợp tác để đem dòng sôcôla rất là ngon và đặc biệt của Việt Nam, premium về quality, để họ sẽ phát triển một dòng sôcôla riêng. Đồng thời tôi cũng sẽ tìm kiếm phương thức để đem về những sản phẩm thành phẩm của Châu Âu, đặc biệt là của Pháp.  Người ăn sôcôla châu Âu là người tiêu dùng có ý thức trách nhiệm, có nghĩa là họ hiểu được ăn sôcôla này có ảnh hưởng gì tới kinh tế địa phương, có gây bất cân bằng về cung cầu và gây thiệt hại cho lao động địa phương, có giúp phát triển được kinh tế địa phương không? Có gây ra sự không công bằng trong thương lượng giữa công ty châu Âu và và kinh tế địa phương không?  Người Việt Nam phải đưa đặc điểm rõ ràng của sôcôla Việt Nam đến người tiêu dùng châu Âu, trong đó có Pháp, để họ hiểu đây là một đặc phẩm có trách nhiệm. Khi ăn họ cảm thấy đã đóng góp được cho kinh tế địa phương tại những vùng kém phát triển hơn.  Thứ hai là hiện nay, với ý thức của người châu Âu về tiêu dùng xanh, về trách nhiệm xã hội, về ESG- Environmental (Môi trường), Social (Xã hội) và Governance (Quản trị doanh nghiệp) - doanh nghiệp Việt Nam ngay từ bây giờ, khi thiết kế sản phẩm phải chú ý rõ ràng nguồn gốc và các giấy tờ chứng minh là không thâm lạm về phá hoại môi trường, không thâm lạm về lao động trẻ em, không thâm lạm về các chất hóa học và trừ sâu. Tôi nghĩ đây là con đường mới và một tương lai mới cho sôcôla Việt Nam.

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.

Biến tàu hỏa thành trải nghiệm du lịch văn hóa sang trọng ở Việt Nam

“Đi tàu từ Nam ra Bắc giúp tôi khám phá sự đa dạng của Việt Nam. Kỷ niệm của tôi về tàu hỏa ở Việt Nam, đó là một phương tiện di chuyển thực sự chậm, nhưng không hề lãng phí thời gian vì tàu thường chạy đêm, sáng mai thức dậy là nhìn thấy cả đồng lúa xanh rì bên ngoài cửa sổ…”. Từ phương tiện giao thông chậm, rẻ hơn máy bay, tàu hỏa đang được phát triển thành cách du lịch chậm, tham quan ngay từ khung cửa sổ. Những cảm nhận trên là của Jean-Marc De Jaeger, phóng viên chuyên mục du lịch của nhật báo Pháp Le Figaro khi trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt. Ông là tác giả cuốn Đi tàu hỏa ở Châu Á: 22 Hành trình trên Đường ray (En train En Asie : 22 itinéraires sur les rails, NXB Voyage Gallimard, 2025), trong đó có Việt Nam : Tại sao có Việt Nam trong lộ trình? Đối với tôi, việc này quan trọng vì đây là một quốc gia khá rộng lớn về mặt địa lý và dân số. Và đặc biệt, tuyến tàu Thống Nhất giống như huyết mạch của đất nước, dài hơn một nghìn km, kết nối các điểm đến chính của Việt Nam, trong 36 giờ. Cho nên trong một cuốn sách hướng dẫn về du lịch bằng tàu hỏa, không thể bó quả Việt Nam. Còn theo tạp chí du lịch Lonely Planet, tuyến đường sắt Bắc-Nam nằm trong số những tuyến đường sắt đẹp nhất thế giới năm 2025. Tàu hỏa ở Việt Nam chạy rất chậm, chỉ khoảng 50 km/giờ, chỉ có một đường, khổ cũ 1,43 mét, từ thời Pháp thuộc và tránh nhau tại các ga lớn. Tàu hỏa không phải là phương tiện để đi khi có công việc gấp, nhưng là “cứu cánh” cho những người say xe, sợ máy bay. Nhưng những năm gần đây, tàu hỏa đã được phát triển thành một dòng du lịch trải nghiệm sang trọng, đề cao dịch vụ cá nhân, “sống chậm”. Đây là một trong những mảng được định hướng để phát triển du lịch nghỉ dưỡng cao cấp ở Việt Nam. “Nhâm nhi thời gian trôi, có nghĩa là khi đi máy bay, thực sự là chẳng nhìn thấy gì nhiều. Ví dụ nếu bay từ Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh đến Hà Nội, chúng ta sẽ chỉ thấy sân bay khởi hành và sân bay đến, rồi ngắm được một chút quang cảnh ở độ cao 10.000 m, nhưng sẽ không thấy các chặng trung gian, sẽ không được hòa mình vào cuộc sống. Đi tàu có thể ngắm rõ quang cảnh vì tàu chạy khá chậm, khoảng 50 km/giờ, đặc biệt là ở phía bắc Đà Nẵng, nơi tàu chạy dọc bờ biển và quang cảnh đẹp một cách ấn tượng. Với tàu hỏa, chúng ta cũng được thoải mái ứng biến, có thể xuống ở một ga nhỏ, nơi không có sân bay, và tự do khám phá đất nước, gần gũi với thiên nhiên, với người dân hơn”. Độc đáo du lịch tàu hỏa Có khoảng 7 tuyến du lịch sang trọng đang được khai thác hoặc sắp được triển khai ở Việt Nam. Nổi tiếng nhất, có chí phí cao nhất (hơn 9.000 đô la) là tuyến SJourney xuyên Việt 8 ngày 7 đêm (Hà Nội - Ninh Binh - Quảng Bình - Huế - Đà Nẵng (Hội An) - Nha Trang - Mũi Né - TP Hồ Chí Minh). Đoàn tàu là khách sạn 5 sao di động, chỉ có 10 toa ngủ với 30 phòng ngủ và đón tối đa 60 khách, tập trung vào chăm sóc cá nhân và nghệ thuật ẩm thực. Từ phòng riêng, du khách có thể thấy phong cảnh lướt qua những ô cửa sổ lớn, từ những phố thị ồn ào, sôi động cho đến những vùng nông thôn yên bình, ruộng đồng thẳng cánh cò bay. Và mỗi sáng thực dậy lại là một địa điểm khác và bắt đầu chuyến tham quan những địa danh được xếp hạng di sản văn hóa thế giới. Không sử dụng SJourney, nhưng nhà báo Pháp Jean-Marc De Jaeger cũng dừng ở những chặng như vậy : “Đi tàu từ Nam ra Bắc đã giúp tôi khám phá sự đa dạng của Việt Nam : Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh là một thủ phủ kinh tế khá năng động và hiện đại, thành phố Đà Nẵng ven biển với thiên nhiên hùng vĩ, còn Hà Nội là một thành phố đậm chất văn hóa, khá truyền thống, và cách không xa đó lắm là những rặng núi ở Sapa (…). Ngày đầu tiên tới Việt Nam, tôi bắt tàu Violette Express ở thành phố Hồ Chí Minh (…). Những ngày đầu tiên tôi ở Việt Nam là trên tàu hỏa. Kỷ niệm đọng lại trong tôi rất đẹp. Tàu khá thoải mái, có rất nhiều khách du lịch. Tàu có hai hạng, giá vé chênh lệch nhau, có những toa tàu mà khách du lịch ưu tiên và những toa tàu mà người dân địa phương ưa thích”. Violette Express là loại hình toa tàu du lịch chất lượng cao, được gắn vào đoàn tàu quốc gia để phục vụ khách, giống như tàu đêm Hà Nội - Sapa của Victoria Express, Sapaly Express, le Vic Sapa Train hoặc Chapa Express, Hoa Phượng Đỏ với các toa VIP trên tuyến Hà Nội - Hải Phòng. Ngoài ra, còn có một số tuyến được khai thác riêng, như The Vietage nối Đà Nẵng - Quy Nhơn, được coi là khách sạn 5 sao di động với giá khoảng 450 đô la/chuyến. Hành trình được chọn đi qua những cung đường đẹp, một bên là biển, bên kia là cánh đồng và làng mạc. Đậm chất du lịch trải nghiệm hơn còn có tuyến La Reine dài 7 km nối Đà Lạt - Trại Mát, được công ty đường sắt Việt Nam khai thác, tàu du lịch Hà Nội 5 cửa ô nối Hà Nội - Từ Sơn (Bắc Ninh), Revolution Express : hai tiếng đi tàu từ Đà Nẵng đến Huế với đầu máy hơi nước của những năm 1960… Điểm chung của những tuyến tàu du lịch này là dịch vụ, trải nghiệm văn hóa, truyền thống, kết hợp tiện nghi của hiện đại với vẻ đẹp của kiến trúc Đông Dương để tạo nên nét tinh tế, sang trọng và rất lịch sử. Đây là “chìa khóa để tạo nên những tour trọn gói, đẳng cấp” và là “chiến lược nhằm khai thác nhóm đối tượng khách hàng sẵn sàng chi trả cho những dịch vụ chất lượng vượt trội” trong phân khúc du lịch bằng tàu hỏa, theo báo Nhân Dân ngày 03/06/2025. Phó Cục trưởng Du lịch Quốc gia Việt Nam Phạm Văn Thủy, được trang Nhân Dân trích dẫn, cho rằng những chuyến tàu không chỉ kết nối địa lý mà còn kết nối trải nghiệm, góp phần thúc đẩy và lan tỏa giá trị vùng miền đến đông đảo du khách trong và ngoài nước theo cách độc lạ, góp phần mở đầu cho một hình thức tour tuyến mới trong việc phát triển du lịch Việt Nam trong nhiều năm tới. Nhật ký ảnh hành trình du lịch bằng tàu hỏa ở Việt Nam Nhà báo Jean-Marc De Jaeger truyền tải kinh nghiệm du lịch tàu hỏa ở Việt Nam qua dạng nhật ký hành trình với những hướng dẫn thực tế và thông tin lịch sử, văn hóa những địa danh ông đi qua. “Đây là một cuốn sách minh họa, có nhiều hình ảnh, có cả phố Đường tàu nổi tiếng ở Hà Nội, giới thiệu một số địa điểm không thể bỏ qua khi tới Việt Nam. Đây là một câu chuyện, một hành trình, nên tôi tìm cách nói với độc giả, kiểu : “Nào, hãy theo tôi, lên tàu cùng tôi, khám phá địa danh này, địa danh kia”. Tôi nghĩ thông qua hành trình này mà tôi kích thích được độc giả khám phá đất nước bằng tàu hỏa. Trong số những địa điểm tôi ở lại vài ngày có Đà Nẵng, thành phố mà tôi rất thích vì có bờ biển xung quanh, thiên nhiên hùng vĩ, rất nhiều di tích tôn giáo. Và đặc biệt Đà Nẵng là trung tâm đường sắt của Việt Nam, có nghĩa là có những chuyến Bắc-Nam, hoặc có những chuyến đến Đà Nẵng rồi quay đầu. Tiếc là không có tàu đi từ Đà Nẵng đến Hội An, mà phải đi taxi hoặc xe buýt thêm gần một tiếng. Qua đó cũng thấy rằng từ ga tàu, có thể tỏa đi các địa điểm xung quanh bằng taxi hoặc phương tiện giao thông công cộng”. Cuốn sách không chỉ là những hướng dẫn mà cũng là nơi chia sẻ cảm xúc, cảm nhận của tác giả về hành trình. Mỗi thành phố, mỗi địa danh đã được Jean-Marc De Jaeger nghiên cứu và tìm tài liệu tỉ mỉ từ trước đó, tham khảo ý kiến những người biết rõ về Việt Nam. Và nếu có nhiều thời gian hơn, Jean-Marc De Jaeger nói là “có thể truyền đạt nhiều hơn trong sách. Nhưng chắc cũng không đủ chỗ mà sẽ phải làm một hướng dẫn riêng”. Một điểm nữa được nhà báo của tờ Le Figaro nhấn mạnh đó là đi tàu làm nảy sinh những mối liên hệ, kết nối, là cách hay nhất để hiểu được phần nào cuộc sống của người dân địa phương : “Khi ở trên tàu, tôi được tiếp xúc với người dân địa phương, mặc dù không phải ai cũng nói được tiếng Anh. Nhưng tôi vẫn có thể thấy một chút về lối sống, thói quen ăn uống trên tàu, cách mọi người di chuyển trong một hành trình dài như vậy. Đó là cách trải nghiệm rất hay. Tàu hỏa là cách tìm hiểu và gần gũi với người dân địa phương, để biết thêm một chút về cuộc sống hàng ngày của họ. Hành trình từ Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh đến Đà Nẵng có vẻ dài, mất 16 hoặc 17 tiếng, nhưng tôi không để ý thời gian trôi qua vì tàu rất thoải mái, có nhiều dịch vụ. Hơn nữa, tôi thực sự đánh giá cao lòng hiếu khách của đội ngũ nhân viên trên tàu, những người rất tận tâm với hành khách. Bữa sáng được tính trong vé. Khách luôn có thể yêu cầu đồ ăn bất cứ lúc nào ban ngày hay ban đêm. Vì vậy, đây là một phương tiện di chuyển khiến bạn cảm thấy như là ở nhà. Trong khoang tàu, ban đầu có thể là những người không quen biết, nhưng sau đó cũng có thể bắt chuyện rất dễ dàng”. Du lịch bằng tàu hỏa xa xỉ có thể sẽ phát triển hơn nữa trong thời gian tới. Công ty Belmond, trực thuộc tập đoàn LVMH (Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton), đã ký thỏa thuận khung với Tổng công ty Đường sắt Việt Nam để thực hiện đề xuất đưa 10 toa tàu cổ của Eastern & Oriental Express đến Việt Nam, phục vụ khách du lịch giữa Hà Nội-Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Tập đoàn Belmond khai thác các đoàn tàu du lịch nổi tiếng Venice-Simplon Orient Express, Royal Scotsman và Andean Explore. Tuy nhiên, kể từ khi được bộ Giao thông Vận tải Việt Nam “bật đèn xanh” vào tháng 03/2024, không có thêm thông tin nào về dự án này.

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?

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?

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!

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.

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.

[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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

For Laikipia, that means looking beyond the overcrowded Maasai Mara to discover a Kenyan plateau where half the country's black rhinos roam, where you might be the only vehicle at a sighting, and where conservation and community go hand in hand. In this episode, host Aislyn Greene talks with Alexandra Owens, a travel writer who specializes in conservation tourism and sub-Saharan Africa. Alexandra shares why this network of community-run conservancies offers a model for what safari can be: high value, low impact, and genuinely beneficial to local communities.

How an international skiing scene developed in the mountains of Bamiyan province in 2011. Long: In 2011, the rugged mountains of Bamiyan Province in central Afghanistan became the backdrop of something as unlikely as it was uplifting-an international ski scene. As Bamiyan was then relatively safe for tourists, a new travel agency, supported by a development NGO, started offering holidays to skiers seeking a unique adventure. A ski school was also set up for locals who were keen to learn, including Alishah Farhang, who went on to become one of Afghanistan's top skiers. In 2022 he spoke to Viv Jones, about how his hopes of competing in the Winter Olympics were shattered by the return of the Taliban. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive and testimony. Sporting Witness is for those fascinated by sporting history. We take you to the events that have shaped the sports world through the eyes of the people who were there.

CannCon and Chris Paul close out the week by breaking down a sprawling news cycle that exposes the growing tension between federal authority, activist judges, and collapsing global narratives. They start with DHS touting thousands of illegal-alien arrests in Los Angeles before a federal judge moves to block Trump's National Guard deployment, sparking a deeper discussion on constitutional authority, invasion definitions, and state defiance. The conversation moves through Supreme Court battles over the administrative state, birthright citizenship, and the broader implications of courts prioritizing “practical concerns” over constitutional law. Internationally, they dissect Venezuela's escalating drama, Maria Corina Machado's controversial escape to Norway, accusations of NGO-driven human trafficking, and the long-running CIA entanglements in Latin America. The hosts also connect NATO's renewed World War rhetoric, Ukraine's nuclear-risk allegations, renewed biolab scrutiny, vaccine narrative reversals, and Trump's moves on marijuana policy into one overarching theme: the old information spell is breaking. A dense, high-signal episode tying lawfare, geopolitics, propaganda, and power into a single, unraveling thread.

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 Act applies to unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials that relate to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

All efforts to control traditional and social media are efforts to control information. The specifics of the reasoning for the fine are typically European.  (1) Twitter allows ordinary people to deliver information at the same level as people who should be defined as more important.  (2)  Advertisers of those who pay for promotion of information on X are not easily identifiable – people need to figure it out on their own.  (3)  It is too difficult to figure out who is providing the information. Basically, all of the EU concerns center around information control.  It's really an ideology issue.  In the outlook of the EU, bureaucrats and elites feel they are superior and must rule/protect the people under them.  Ordinary people having access to information that may or may not be approved by the EU is the underlying issue.

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? What about this individual who is located in X, Y, or Z?'” Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/amuse/status/1996873942406164855?s=20 https://twitter.com/JesseBWatters/status/1997120806212546797?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1997120806212546797%7Ctwgr%5Ed963eef05511b000b3f2631742a9c8e0f0d3c2a2%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbobhoge%2F2025%2F12%2F05%2Fdc-pipe-bomb-suspect-i-did-it-n2196869  AUTISTIC-LIKE”   SO Why didn't BIDEN'S FBI REALLY catch THIS GUY MS NOW reported that Brian Cole is a Trump supporter. https://twitter.com/DC_Draino/status/1996990984584933729?s=20 January 6 Pipe Bomb Suspect Brian Cole is NOT a Trump Supporter – Family Says He is an “Autistic Recluse” Who Lived in a Basement  January 6 pipe bomb suspect Brian Cole is not a Trump supporter like the legacy media has claimed.

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. Ending these regulations is part of complying with Trump’s “Unleashing American Energy” Executive Order and the [Transportation] Secretary's “Fixing the CAFE Program” Memorandum, according to the department’s homepage. On Wednesday, the president rattled off the investments in the United States that the auto companies have made since Trump 47 began in January. In one case, he cracked up the room by joking that they could do better than the billions of dollars they are promising: Trump added that it’s part of getting rid of more of the “Green New Scam,” too. https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996322694099345577?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996322694099345577%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996325044260085885?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996325044260085885%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996587083012378947?s=20 https://twitter.com/profstonge/status/1996583802559136057?s=20 https://twitter.com/unusual_whales/status/1996582009460732232?s=20   to a seasonally adjusted 191,000, the lowest level since September 2022, with expectations of 220,000. https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996431168883900552?s=20   fourth consecutive month-over-month decline.

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 “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.

Ilhan Omar and individuals later charged or convicted in Minnesota's billion-dollar pandemic-meal fraud. Omar's 2018 victory party was held at Safari Restaurant, co-owned by Salim Ahmed Said, now found guilty of pocketing more than $12 million in fraudulent reimbursements after reportedly serving “phantom” meals. A member of Omar's campaign staff has also been convicted in the same broader scheme. Critics note Omar publicly praised the program that later enabled the fraud, and that she maintained ties with several of the participants. Prosecutors say Minnesota's COVID-era meal programs operated with almost no verification, allowing widespread abuse through Feeding Our Future and affiliated entities.

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.
