They compare the event to past mass-migration episodes in Europe and the U.S. The conversation shifts to Anthony Fauci's Senate testimony, Rand Paul's questioning, Biden's blanket pardon, and allegations of profiteering and lack of accountability. They then review controversy around Nolan's film The Odyssey, arguing DEI casting choices may have been used subversively while still praising parts of the movie. They also cover U.S. border-device searches and debate whether expanding conflicts around Iran, attacks on energy infrastructure, and U.S. involvement indicate a slide toward World War III, including nuclear or cyber escalation. 00:00 Ceuta Migrant Surge 02:24 Can Spain Stop It 04:40 History and Parallels 09:06 Was It Organized 12:36 Spillover to US Politics 14:10 Fauci Senate Showdown 18:38 Nolan Odyssey DEI Debate 27:03 TSA Phone Wipe Case 28:40 Iran Conflict World War Risk 36:15 Wrap Up and Listener Questions

Make no mistake: the far right's push for remigration — the mass removal of non-European immigrants, and of certain minority citizens too — is both serious and strategic. Yes, the European mainstream is still resisting it, and anti-Nazis and pro-Europeans are mounting a determined pushback of their own. But the far right insists its strategy of dragging the conservative center steadily rightward is working: rightward on restricting NGOs, rightward on rolling back climate protections, and rightward, above all, on migration. Among recent wins it's crowing about is EU approval for a so-called Return Regulation, under which member states could end up paying countries in the Western Balkans and North Africa — not just to hold back migrants, but to accept migrants deported from the EU. The vote, on June 17, was accompanied by chants of "send them back" inside the European Parliament.Remigration, of course, would go a giant step further: the deportations, expulsions, and de-naturalizations envisioned would involve millions of people, and would likely share disturbing logistical and ideological echoes with Nazi Germany. But those terrifying precedents haven't dimmed the far right's enthusiasm one bit. That was palpable on July 15, inside hearing room 1E2 at the European Parliament in Brussels, where some of the continent's most extreme identitarian figures gathered at the invitation of lawmakers from the chamber's three main far-right groups. Among the speakers: Eva Vlaardingerbroek, a Dutch commentator British authorities deem a threat to public order and have barred from freely traveling to the UK; she called for an even more coordinated, transnational push for remigration. And there was Dries Van Langenhove, a Flemish identitarian facing a permanent UK ban; he deployed the word "metapolitics" in an allusion to Antonio Gramsci, to insist that the long battle for dominance over public thought is winnable — and that the groundwork for full remigration is already being laid.It's a rich irony that Gramsci, an Italian Marxist jailed by Mussolini, is taken so seriously on the far right. But after the horrors of Nazism, the movement knew it had to proceed patiently if it ever hoped to stage a comeback. Some in Europe — the French New Right chief among them — took Gramsci as their guide to changing the culture first, and operating through a radical vanguard. Those same tactics got absorbed by the American radical right, which helped carry Trump into the White House. The story of how Gramsci's thinking keeps flowing back and forth across the Atlantic is of particular interest to Philipp Adorf of the University of Bonn. Philipp has written on the radicalization of the U.S. Republican Party and is a leading analyst of the rise of Germany's AfD. We recorded this conversation last year, but it's just as relevant now with the AfD and the continent's leading identitarians trying to carry their campaign for remigration to Brussels — and into the heart of European policymaking.Support the show
For episode 261 of the Crypto Altruists podcast, we have a special solo episode in store where we explore why the United Nations is going all in on blockchain and cryptocurrency, highlighting some of their most exciting projects from agencies like UNICEF, The World Food Program, The UNDP, and the UNHCR, that are leveraging web3 tools to drive humanitarian impact.We walk through why the UN has embraced blockchain and cryptocurrency, the real-world impact they're having on millions of people around the world, and what other NGOs, nonprofits, changemakers, or activists can take from this, and why they should consider exploring web3 use cases for their organizations.In today's discussion, you'll learn:
In this summer bonus episode of The Food Professor podcast, Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois broadcast live from the SIAL Food Innovation Show in Montreal for a conversation with Naïla Bassin, Marketing Leader Canada, and Carlo Stocco, Managing Director, North America, both of Andriani S.p.A., the Italian company behind Felicia, Italy's fastest-growing pasta brand. Felicia means "happy" in Italian, and the brand's Canadian arrival is built on a simple but stubborn problem: Canadians want healthier pasta, but the better-for-you category has long asked shoppers to compromise on taste and texture. Carlo traces the company's roots to Gravina in Puglia in southern Italy, its rapid European growth, and the decision to build a North American manufacturing facility in London, Ontario rather than simply import from Europe. That plant now anchors a national launch, with organic ingredients increasingly sourced in Canada and an ambition to bring the entire supply chain onshore. Naïla unpacks what makes the product different. Felicia owns its technology and mills its own raw materials, which matters enormously when there's no gluten to bind the pasta. The result is a seven-SKU lineup built on single ingredients and vegetables rather than blends and fillers: buckwheat, brown rice and spirulina, chickpea, red lentil, oat and green cauliflower. One organic red lentil serving delivers 23 grams of protein and 14 grams of fibre, plus iron and potassium. The oat pasta recently took home a NEXTY award for best gluten-free product at Expo West in Los Angeles, chosen from more than 1,000 submissions. The conversation turns to the retail strategy every emerging food brand wrestles with. Felicia has launched in specialty and health stores across Ontario and Quebec, landed at Loblaw in the natural health aisle, secured Costco with red lentil penne plus a limited mid-May drop of organic oat and green cauliflower cavatappi, is rolling into Save-On-Foods, and is in discussions with Sobeys. But where should it live on shelf? Carlo makes the case for the main pasta aisle using Italy's Esselunga, where 14 Felicia items sit alongside conventional pasta and grow the total category, much as cereal and bakery have already been transformed. A sharp listen for anyone tracking Canadian grocery innovation, better-for-you food trends and brand building in a crowded category.

Interviews with pioneers in business and social impact - Business Fights Poverty Spotlight
What does it take to solve the world's most complex challenges? According to partnership expert Darian Stibbe, the answer isn't better technology, bigger budgets or stronger institutions working alone, it's collaboration. From rocket science to systems change: Darian Stibbe explains why effective partnerships matter more than ever. Social Impact Pioneer, Darian, Executive Director of The Partnering Initiative (TPI), shares insights from more than 20 years spent helping businesses, governments, NGOs, philanthropies and international organisations work together to create lasting social and environmental impact. Before becoming one of the world's leading voices on cross-sector collaboration, Darian was a NASA scientist and quantum physicist, a journey that gives him a perspective on complexity, systems thinking and change second to none. Drawing on real-world examples, Darian challenges one of the biggest misconceptions about partnerships: that collaboration is a natural skill. Instead, he argues that partnering is a professional discipline that can be learned, practised and continuously improved. He explains why partnerships often fail not because of the people involved, but because organisations lack the systems, culture and incentives needed to support genuine collaboration. The conversation explores the growing shift towards systems change and multi-stakeholder partnerships, particularly as organisations face increasingly interconnected challenges, from climate resilience and sustainable supply chains to public service delivery and economic development. Darian also highlights the often-overlooked role of philanthropy as a catalyst for transformation, not just funding solutions, but bringing diverse actors together to unlock change at scale. Packed with practical insights, compelling stories and reasons for optimism, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on how organisations can move beyond transactional relationships and build partnerships capable of delivering transformational impact. Whether you're working in business, philanthropy, government or civil society, listen in to hear valuable lessons on how collaboration can become a strategic capability, and why the return on investing in it may be far greater than many realise.

AI data centers are not about innovation — they are part of a much larger political and economic agenda. I'm joined by Tom DeWeese, founder of the American Policy Center and one of America's leading property rights advocates, to expose how massive AI data centers fit into a broader campaign of centralized land control. We discuss how data centers intersect with Agenda 2030, 15-minute cities, smart cities, carbon capture, wind and solar projects, zoning changes, eminent domain, private property rights, surveillance technology, and the growing influence of NGOs on local governments. Are your local officials selling out your community's zoning laws to the highest bidder? Discover the truth about the C-40 cities, the war on cars, and why private property is the only thing standing between freedom and total top-down control. Learn more about your ad choices.

Why do some international courts wield broad authority while others face pushback or fade into irrelevance? The Authority of International Courts: A Behavioural Framework (Hart Publishing, 2026) by Dr. Dana Burchardt provides novel theoretical and empirical insights into this question. It offers a fresh, interdisciplinary perspective on the authority of international courts, drawing from law, political science and behavioural research. It develops, in Part I, a theoretical model and analytical framework for assessing these questions. The model explains how authority relationships between courts and their audiences—such as states, NGOs, individual applicants, and domestic courts—are formed, maintained, or contested. In Part II, the book applies this analytical framework to in-depth case studies of two selected international courts: the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the Economic Community of West African States. These studies not only provide deeper insights into the authority of these courts but also demonstrate how the analytical framework can be applied to other international courts to generate an enhanced understanding of international court authority. The book sheds new light on why some courts enjoy enduring authority and others face pushback, offering powerful tools for understanding the behaviour of international courts and their audiences. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Editorial note: This conversation was recorded live at SIAL Canada in late April — well before the July CUSMA review deadline and the most recent U.S. tariff actions targeting Canada. Some of the optimism expressed here about a smooth CUSMA outcome should be heard in that context. It's become a Food Professor tradition: every year at SIAL Canada, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois sit down with Martin Lavoie, President and CEO of Groupe Export Agroalimentaire Québec-Canada, for a state-of-the-nation check-in on Canadian agri-food trade. This bonus episode, recorded live on the SIAL Canada show floor in Montreal, picks up exactly one year after their last conversation — and at the time, a lot had already changed. Lavoie opens by reflecting on the whiplash of the prior twelve months. Since "Liberation Day" tariffs rattled Canadian exporters the previous spring, Quebec's agri-food sector had kept growing despite the uncertainty, but the volatility had taken a toll: lost U.S. customers, disrupted contracts, and a level of unpredictability Lavoie says he'd never seen in his career. He walks through how Groupe Export helped member companies navigate the chaos — from renegotiating who absorbs tariff costs to bracing for policy shifts announced, at times, over social media. The conversation turns to CUSMA (USMCA), then under review, with Lavoie offering a cautiously optimistic read at the time: dismantling the agreement would be so disruptive to deeply integrated U.S. industries that he believed cooler heads would prevail on both sides of the border. Listeners should weigh that optimism against what's actually unfolded since the July deadline and the latest U.S. tariff moves against Canada. A major theme is diversification. Lavoie argues Mexico represents Quebec's single biggest near-term opportunity — logistically easier than overseas markets and increasingly motivated to reduce its own reliance on U.S. imports. He also flags growing momentum in Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, and Europe, while acknowledging the real barriers: time zones, market development costs, and a Canadian logistics network still built for trucking to the U.S. rather than shipping by ocean freight. Comparing Canada to the Netherlands' export powerhouse model, he makes the case for urgent investment in port infrastructure, warehousing, and resolving ongoing labour disruptions at Canadian ports. Domestically, Lavoie and Charlebois dig into interprovincial trade — noting it's often cheaper and easier for a Quebec exporter to ship to New York than to Calgary — and discuss data from an MNP survey showing Canada ranks as a top-tier nation for agri-food reputation among G20 countries, trailing only the Netherlands. The episode closes with a practical overview of how Groupe Export supports Quebec exporters: 30-40 trade missions and shows per year, shipping and regulatory support, market intelligence, and export-readiness evaluations for companies just getting started. A time-capsule look at where Quebec's agri-food exporters stood mid-storm — worth hearing alongside what's happened since.

Guest: Helen Neal, founder of HN Communications and creator of the AI platform Xena Show Notes How can businesses talk about sustainability without falling into the trap of greenwashing? In this episode, Mike Nemer speaks with Helen Neal, founder of HN Communications and creator of Xena, an AI-powered platform designed to help organizations communicate sustainability claims more accurately, transparently, and responsibly. Helen explains why sustainability communication has shifted from idealistic language to a more practical focus on business resilience, regulatory risk, measurable action, and long-term trust. She also shares how Xena helps teams identify risky language, strengthen evidence behind claims, and avoid misleading environmental messaging. In This Episode Why greenwashing often happens when companies make sustainability claims without enough data or evidence How sustainability teams and marketing teams can better align before publishing environmental claims Why progress, transparency, and specificity matter more than perfection How carbon credits, offsets, renewable energy, and efficiency projects should be communicated responsibly What businesses can learn from high-profile greenwashing cases, including KLM's “Fly Responsibly” campaign How Xena reviews sustainability language, flags potential regulatory risks, and coaches' users toward clearer communication Key Takeaways Be specific and evidence based. Broad claims like “sustainable” or “responsible” can create risk when they are not backed by measurable proof. Communicate progress honestly. Helen argues that businesses do not need to be perfect, but they do need to be transparent about what they are doing and what still needs improvement. Translate sustainability into business value. Many sustainability initiatives can strengthen resilience, reduce costs, and create long-term competitive advantage. Keep humans accountable. Xena is designed to coach and assess sustainability communication rather than automatically generate final claims, helping teams retain ownership of sensitive messaging. About the Guest Helen Neal is the founder of HN Communications, a sustainability communications company that works with global corporations and NGOs. She is also the creator of Xena, an AI-powered platform built to help businesses review sustainability messaging, identify potential greenwashing risks, and improve the clarity and compliance of environmental claims. Memorable Quote “Progress over perfection matters, but only when companies are honest about the evidence, limits, and impact behind their sustainability claims.” Listen If You Want to Learn How to avoid vague or exaggerated sustainability claims Why greenwashing prevention is becoming a business-critical communication issue How AI tools can support risk review without replacing human judgment What sustainability teams should consider before handing claims to marketing or PR Become a Green Insider Be sure to subscribe to The Green Insider, powered by ERENEWABLE, wherever you get your podcasts—and don't forget to leave us a five‑star rating!

On today's episode we discuss the ins and outs of the European Union and how it structurally, institutionally and ideologically reinforces its own legitimacy through “civil society” within current and prospective member states.Our guest is Thomas Fazi.Fazi is the author of the book The European Propaganda Machine: The Dark Side of NGOs, Media and Universities (2026) - (published in Italian).Book description:A topic no one talks about: for the first time, the apparatus through which the European Union has built, financed, and implemented a widespread system of control over public discourse is dismantled piece by piece. Through a documented analysis of the flows of money to NGOs, media, and universities, the text shows how European public resources are being used to generate artificial consensus, marginalize dissent, and promote an integrationist ideology presented as neutral and inevitable. What emerges is a portrait of a largely co-opted “civil society,” a structurally dependent media, and an academia transformed into a vehicle for political legitimacy. This investigation raises fundamental questions about the state of democracy in Europe and the increasingly blurred lines between information, activism, and propaganda.Thomas Fazi is a critically-acclaimed writer and journalist. His books include The Battle for Europe: How an Elite Hijacked a Continent — and How We Can Take It Back (Pluto Press, 2014), Reclaiming the State: A Progressive Vision of Sovereignty for a Post-Neoliberal World (co-authored with Bill Mitchell; Pluto Press, 2017) and The Covid Consensus: The Global Assault on Democracy and the Poor — A Critique from the Left (co-authored with Toby Green; 2023). His latest book, published in Italian, is The European Propaganda Machine: The Dark Side of NGOs, Media and Universities (2026). His articles have appeared in numerous online and printed publications. He is a columnist for the British magazine UnHerd and the American magazine Compact.Episode music:”სმა” - მინდა და ვთხრი
On 16 July, Turkey marked a decade since the failed coup that shook the nation. Its defeat is widely viewed as the final curtain on military meddling in politics and as the moment when President Erdogan cemented his grip on power, yet the aftershocks for human rights and foreign relations still reverberate. On 16 July, Turkey marked a decade since the failed coup that shook the nation. Its defeat is widely viewed as the final curtain on military meddling in politics and as the moment when President Erdogan cemented his grip on power, yet the aftershocks for human rights and foreign relations still reverberate. A decade ago, factions within the Turkish military, composed of rebellious officers and followers of the Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen, launched a dramatic attempt to topple President Erdogan. "I remember, as a soldier, those who started the coup," recalls Murat Aslan, an army officer at the time. "I had no idea that there were members of this organisation (Gulen followers); they were very secretive." Erdogan tightens his grip Now a security analyst at SETA, a pro-government think tank, Aslan describes the failed coup as a turning point that reshaped the course of Turkish democracy. "The message was very clear. Turkish society collectively rejected it," said Aslan. "Thousands took to the streets; that's more than challenging, because you see tanks rolling and people trying to stop them, trying to capture the soldiers with their rifles. It takes more than courage." More than 250 people died resisting the coup. In the aftermath, Erdogan imposed emergency rule and expanded his presidential authority through a sharply contested national referendum. "This military intervention actually consolidated the Erdogan-led government," Aslan added. Turkey's military, relations with US to survive failed coup, ruling party vice-president Hundreds of soldiers and officers faced prosecution as the government declared an end to the army's long history of political interference. Since 1960, the military had orchestrated three coups, the most recent in 1980. A decade of purges and closures In the wake of the failed takeover, tens of thousands were purged from state institutions, many never returning even after being cleared. More than a thousand NGOs were shut down during two years of emergency rule. Milena Buyum, senior Turkey campaigner for Amnesty International, acknowledges the grave threat to democracy posed by the attempted coup: "The state has a responsibility to ensure the safety and security of its citizens and to investigate criminal acts like the ones carried out that night," said Buyum. Turkey's Erdogan warms to Russia after West coup response However, Buyum warns that many of the measures introduced under the state of emergency have since been written into ordinary law, permanently curtailing fundamental freedoms: "The right to freedom of expression, freedom of assembly and association: the impact on civil society was felt very sharply and starkly in the immediate aftermath of the coup, but that impact continues," said Buyum. Ankara's alliances The failed coup also drove a wedge into Turkey's long-standing alliance with the United States. "Ankara saw the hand of the United States behind the failed coup attempt," claims Ozgur Unluhisarcikli, who leads the Ankara office of the German Marshall Fund. Even before the attempted coup, Erdogan's relations with President Barack Obama had been tense. Obama's belated support, offered only after the coup had failed, fuelled Ankara's suspicions of US complicity, particularly as Washington refused to extradite Fethullah Gulen, whom Erdogan blamed for orchestrating the plot. Gulen denied the accusation until his death in 2024. Turks in France divided on failed coup Unluhisarcikli observes that US-Turkish relations remained strained for years, while Erdogan gravitated towards Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose rapid show of support stood in sharp contrast to Washington's hesitation. "Putin was among the first leaders, I believe even the first, to extend political support to the elected government in Ankara, and in those days I believe that support mattered greatly to President Erdogan," Unluhisarcikli said. Rumours still persist in Turkey today that Moscow warned Erdogan on the day of the failed coup. Unluhisarcikli says it was only with the election of President Donald Trump, who shared Erdogan's animosity towards Obama and Joe Biden, that US-Turkish relations began to thaw, a shift highlighted at this month's NATO summit in Ankara. Yet the wave of mass arrests during the summit, enabled by post-coup emergency powers, served as a stark reminder that the shadow of the failed takeover still looms over Turkey.
Donald Trump has this uncanny ability to make Democrats tell on themselves without even trying. Barack Obama just gave us another example.[X] SB - Pres Trump Obama SOBObama recently decided to float the idea that Donald Trump has him "living rent-free" in Trump's head. That's rich. That's like the guy who burned your house down complaining that you keep bringing up the fire. "Kevin, why are you still talking about the arsonist?" Because I'm still rebuilding the kitchen, genius.Obama wants to turn accountability into obsession.Every time Trump has to fix another Obama disaster, somehow Obama translates that into, "See? He can't stop thinking about me."No, Barack. That's called cleaning up after you.If your teenager wrecks the family car, you don't spend six months in the body shop because you're obsessed with your teenager. You spend six months there because he drove it through the living room.Obama wants to frame history as psychology.Trump isn't haunted by Obama. America is still paying Obama's bills.And I have to laugh at the phrase "living rent-free."If anybody would understand rent-free housing, it'd be Democrats. If Obama were living anywhere inside Trump's mind, it'd have to qualify for Section 8. There'd be federal subsidies, three oversight committees, two NGOs, and somehow USAID would still send money overseas.Obama accomplished something remarkable. He convinced millions of Americans that decline was sophistication.[X] SB – DSA in their own words Act from the belly of the beast.

This week, Aebhric is joined by Fred, who has spent almost four and a half years working in military and military-adjacent medicine in Ukraine, primarily on the forward line of troops (FLOT), with additional experience at casualty collection points and stabilisation points. In this episode, he and Aebhric trace how combat casualty care has changed since 2022: evacuation timelines have stretched from minutes to weeks, wounding patterns have shifted as troop formations disperse to avoid drone strikes, and medics on the ground are being asked to deliver prolonged field care (PFC) far beyond their training. The conversation covers current combat wound pack medications, the phase-out of nalbuphine, tramadol's hepatotoxicity risk in dehydrated patients, the training gap between CLS/CMC-qualified providers, and the disease and non-battle injury (DNBI) burden from leptospirosis to Lyme disease to anthrax that frontline medics are managing largely on their own.Chapters00:00 – Introduction and guest welcome01:00 – Four years of medical experience on the Ukrainian front02:00 – How drone warfare has changed casualty patterns03:10 – Evolution of TCCC and prolonged evacuation04:20 – Changes to battlefield medications and analgesia06:00 – Ketamine, morphine and tramadol in prolonged casualty care08:00 – The challenge of prolonged pain management09:15 – Nerve blocks and expanding combat medic skills10:15 – Closing the knowledge gap for frontline medics12:00 – Self-directed learning and educational resources13:15 – Current medical training available in Ukraine15:00 – Could prolonged casualty care become a formal certification?16:00 – A day in the life of a frontline combat medic18:15 – Drone casualty evacuation: promise and limitations20:00 – What knowledge do combat medics really need?22:00 – Disease, dehydration and prolonged field medicine23:20 – Final advice for new austere medical providersEvolving battlefield medicine. Evacuation that once happened within minutes from positions near the front now can take weeks, driven by pervasive drone surveillance and strike capability. Mass casualty incidents near the front line have become less common as units disperse, changing the injury and casualty flow medics have to plan for.Training and knowledge gaps. There's a wide spread in provider background — from Ukrainian feldshers (registered-nurse equivalent) to personnel who completed a seven-day CMC course — all filling the same frontline medic role. Nerve blocks beyond digital blocks aren't commonly taught. Fred argues CMC training was never meant to stand alone; it assumes a prior EMT-level foundation that many providers don't have. Training availability is inconsistent and largely filled by NGOs of varying quality, with NAMT/CLS/CMC certification currently the closest thing to a standard.Evacuation reality on the ground. Getting to a casualty may take hours to days depending on drone "weather windows." Waits of 30–60 days for evacuation are not unheard of. As a result, stabilisation points are increasingly seeing patients who would survive regardless of intervention, rather than the critical mid-triage-category patients medics are most needed for. Ground evacuation drones (UGVs) are seeing real use but only for stable patients, since medics can't manage an airway or maintain a sedated patient during transit; aerial casualty evacuation is currently considered infeasible due to drone threats.Disease and non-battle injury (DNBI). Fred and Aebhric discuss the need for a Ukraine-specific DNBI framework and better environmental/threat updates reaching medics in the field.Closing advice. Fred's advice for new medics, nurses, and physicians entering austere medicine: keep learning and keep developing — people are counting on you to do your job well.
This episode brings together two experts to discuss recent second-round presidential elections in Peru and Colombia: Jo-Marie Burt, a senior fellow at WOLA and professor at George Mason University's Schar School of Policy and Government, and a leading expert on Peru; and Gimena Sánchez-Garzoli, WOLA's Director for the Andes, who maintains close contact with Colombian civil society. Both elections produced razor-thin margins, and both delivered victories to right-wing, populist candidates promising crackdowns on crime and a hard line against their political adversaries. In Peru, Keiko Fujimori won the presidency on her fourth attempt, while in Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella narrowly defeated left-leaning Iván Cepeda. Burt describes Fujimori's ascent as the culmination of years spent consolidating control over Peru's key institutions, like Congress, the constitutional tribunal, and the attorney general's office. She characterizes Fujimori as "singularly motivated, singularly ambitious, and singularly ruthless," shaped by her upbringing under her father Alberto Fujimori's authoritarian government. Burt warns that Fujimori is driven by a desire for revenge against those who helped prosecute and imprison her father, including journalists like Gustavo Gorriti, human rights lawyers, prosecutors, and judges. She details a legislative landscape already tilted toward impunity—amnesty laws shielding police and military, and restrictions crippling NGOs' ability to represent victims. Burt argues Peru has drifted toward a hybrid or even authoritarian regime. Sánchez-Garzoli paints a tense picture in Colombia, where outgoing President Gustavo Petro has refused to recognize the election results, alleging fraud and foreign interference despite institutional findings to the contrary. She notes intervention by the Trump administration and U.S. lawmakers. With the transition suspended and Petro calling supporters into the streets, while armed groups reposition, Sánchez-Garzoli warns of a real risk of political violence. She outlines de la Espriella's "iron fist" agenda: mega-prisons modeled on El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, reviving the controversial ESMAD riot police, and a "special urban defense bloc" that she fears could blur the line between state security and paramilitary activity, echoing Colombia's dark history. "Colombia can't return to the belief that problems can be solved through bullets," she says, paraphrasing Colombian human rights defender Leyner Palacios. The conversation explores the deeper social fractures driving these results: in Peru, divisions of race, class, and region between Lima and the neglected Andean provinces, alongside a "frozen" collective memory of the 1980s-90s internal armed conflict manipulated to smear the left as communist. In Colombia, urban-rural divides also shape perceptions of security and the peace process. Both guests anticipate closer alignment with Washington, though they distinguish ideological affinity from generous funding. Sánchez-Garzoli expects a "total reset" in U.S.-Colombia relations, possible joint operations, and migration cooperation including reports of a plan to facilitate deportations of Colombian asylum seekers. Burt notes U.S. concern over China's growing influence in Peru. Despite the grim outlook, both find grains of hope: in Peru, a tentative opposition alliance and a still-vibrant regional civil society; in Colombia, strong institutions, a diverse Congress, and a resilient press and civil society. The episode closes with a reflection that both presidents-elect, lacking strong bases, face the "Milei challenge" of governing without a coalition.
For episode 259 of the Crypto Altruists podcast, we're excited to welcome Inès d'Haultfoeuille, Chief Operating Officer of Egregor, a non-profit dedicated to catalysing social and environmental transformations, playing roles that range from accelerator to venture philanthropist and strategic advisor. Their team is truly global, and their work reaches across climate, education, social justice, civic engagement, and more.If you work in the nonprofit or impact space, the last few years have been brutal. Funding is being cut. Donor priorities are shifting, sometimes overnight. Geopolitical instability is reshaping where resources flow and who gets left out. And through all of it, the needs on the ground aren't shrinking. They're growing.We've talked about this on the show before, with organizations working in Ukraine, in Afghanistan, in Tanzania, in Somaliland. The pattern keeps repeating. The people doing the most essential work are often the ones with the least support, the least stability, and the least room to breathe.Egregor was born out of a conviction that social and environmental innovators deserve better than isolation, precarious funding, and systems designed without them. And what I find compelling about their model is where they choose to focus. Rather than just writing cheques, they work to remove the structural, financial, and logistical barriers that stand between an innovator and their vision. Because so often, the bottleneck isn't the idea but everything surrounding it.In today's discussion you'll learn:
With the FIFA World Cup entering its final week, we explore how NGOs operating in participating nations can leverage the tournament's spotlight to advance their work. While tournament hype is notoriously fleeting, we break down how NGOs can translate a short-term spike in curiosity into sustained long-term impact. We also discuss our key takeaways from the United Nations' Global Dialogue for AI Governance and the International Telecommunication Union's AI for Good Summit, both of which we covered on the ground in Geneva, Switzerland. From the absence of major AI labs to how lower- and middle-income countries are demanding an equal voice in global tech regulation, we explore why the development sector must stop leaving AI's future to technologists alone. To dig into these stories and others, David Ainsworth sits down with Catherine Cheney and Thomas Cserep for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series. In the sponsored segment of the podcast, hosted in partnership with The Pfizer Foundation, Devex Executive Vice President and Executive Editor Kate Warren speaks with Freddy Nkosi, Senior Director of Global Programs for West and Central Africa & DRC Country Director at VillageReach. They explore how locally-led supply chains and data-informed approaches are helping countries, such as the DRC and Cameroon, address last-mile challenges, supporting efforts to ensure vaccines reach remote and underserved communities when and where they are needed.
It was a good run, but after 250 years, it is finally time to end the experiment in its current form and fashion. Most major cities in America are now low-trust societies where criminality is rampant, and decency is punished. Leftists have destroyed the economic base with woke virtue signaling, burdensome regulations, and a never-ending stream of new taxes. NGOs and Medicaid fraud are responsible for 30% of New York City's private sector jobs, mostly concentrated in healthcare, education, and social services. The Potemkin Village fake economy fuels an entire segment through NGOs receiving money from the government, then redistributes it to the people through fraud and fake charities.

Tim Conley joins us on the Disaster podcast this week to look at the international response to two concurrent disasters. In his role and Chairman of the Board with Med Global and as a co-founder of Interstate Disaster Medical Collaborative (IDMC), Tim discusses how these organizations are working to help manage the Ebola outbreak response in Africa while they simultaneously send teams to assist with medical care of victims following the earthquakes in Venezuela. Previous Disaster Podcast Episode on Med Global in Ukraine MedGlobal provides free, sustainable healthcare services to refugees, displaced persons, and other vulnerable communities in crisis areas and low-resource settings worldwide. They deploy healthcare volunteers, support local medical teams and humanitarian partners with training, funding, and technology, and donate medical equipment, medications and supplies. The episode was co-hosted by Sam Bradley and Jamie Davis. Scroll down for Podcast Discussion Summary Thank you as always to Paragon Medical Education Group for their long-term support of the Disaster Podcast. Dr. Joe Holley and the team at Paragon continue to provide excellent and customized disaster response training to jurisdictions around the U.S. and internationally as well. Podcast Discussion Summary New Board Chair Introduction Meeting Sam introduced Tim Conley as the new chair of the board and vice president of MedGlobal, explaining how they first connected in 2006 when Sam was building a disaster team for California and sought Tim’s expertise from the Illinois team. Tim described his current roles as an emergency management supervisor for Mercy Health and his work with MedGlobal’s emergency management and chemical weapons programs, noting his ongoing liaison with IDMC which he helped found. The discussion focused on MedGlobal’s current global healthcare initiatives, including responses in Ukraine, Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Colombia, and other locations, as well as their work in Ebola and Venezuela responses. MedGlobal Healthcare Mission Discussion Sam discussed MedGlobal’s mission of providing free sustainable healthcare to refugees and vulnerable communities through deploying healthcare volunteers and building resilient healthcare systems. Tim explained that his role in emergency management involves providing tools and systems to healthcare providers so they can effectively respond to emergencies, noting that while the concept is simple in description, it’s more complex in practice. The discussion highlighted MedGlobal’s international training programs, including chemical weapons response and surgical techniques, with examples from Ukraine, Gaza, and Bangladesh. International Medical Logistics Coordination Tim discussed the logistical challenges of working with international medical communities, noting that physical movement of materials and coordinating with local partners and governments are the main hurdles, especially in countries like Ukraine, Ebola outbreak regions, and Venezuela. He explained that working with organizations like WHO is crucial for navigating local regulations and ensuring proper distribution of PPE and training programs that align with local practices and WHO recommendations. International Medical Aid Challenges The discussion focused on the challenges of providing medical equipment and training in international aid situations. Sam shared an example from Ukraine where outdated equipment was sent without proper training, leading to the equipment being unused. Jamie asked about balancing access to modern technology with local healthcare system capabilities, to which Zoom responded that it’s crucial to assess what the local system can sustain long-term, noting that healthcare systems often excel in some areas while lacking in others. Ebola Response in Ukraine Challenges The discussion focused on the challenges of responding to the Ebola outbreak in Ukraine, with participants noting the complex logistics due to the strain of the virus, detection difficulties, and ongoing conflicts in the region. Tim explained that Med Global is working with the WHO to determine the best locations for setting up training programs, considering factors like responder fatigue and logistical access. The conversation highlighted the importance of addressing both physical and mental health challenges for first responders, with participants acknowledging the long-term emotional toll of working in dangerous environments with limited PPE and family support. Volunteer Disaster Preparedness Training Challenges Tim discussed the challenges of preparing volunteers for different disaster scenarios, noting that while MedGlobal staff and volunteers receive training from healthcare professionals and emergency managers, there is no single recipe for mental preparation due to varying dangers like Ebola outbreaks, local conflicts, and natural disasters. Tim emphasized the importance of proper training, including PPE use and safety protocols, and mentioned specific examples like emergency management volunteers providing safety training in Venezuela after an earthquake. The discussion concluded with Sam considering the situation of federal employees eager to join USAR and DMAT teams but waiting for disaster deployments. Venezuela Earthquake Relief Efforts Tim explained their earthquake relief efforts in Venezuela, describing how they are working with NGOs and local authorities through advanced teams that are conducting assessments and establishing logistics for medical supplies and patient care. The discussion highlighted the challenges of accessing the country and the importance of planning for needs 2-3 weeks ahead rather than immediate requirements. Sam noted similarities to their previous experience with Ukraine relief efforts, mentioning concerns about distribution, security, and implementation logistics. Venezuela Earthquake Disaster Response The group discussed the situation in Venezuela following an earthquake, with Jamie reporting that official death tolls are likely underreported, with estimates ranging from 3,700 to potentially 10,000 or more deaths. Tim highlighted the dedication of disaster response teams, including medical professionals and volunteers, who willingly enter dangerous areas to help others despite personal risks. The conversation also covered the collapsed chronic disease care system in Gaza, where healthcare infrastructure has been destroyed, leading to significant problems with untreated medical conditions. Wrap up and updates The team went through contact information and the team encouraged listeners to stay safe. The group discussed the role of specialized training, with Jamie highlighting the sponsorship of the Disaster Podcast by Paragon Medical Education Group.

In this special episode, we are doing something a little different by introducing an urgent, concrete internationalist political project. We are joined by two representatives affiliated with RAIZ International.To protect the sensitive nature of their organizing on the ground, we have tailored this conversation to focus on their overarching strategic goals and material outlook without endangering any ongoing local initiatives.RAIZ International rejects the dominant trend of contemporary Western "solidarity," which often reduces internationalism to hollow press releases, moralistic posturing, or aesthetic digital templates. Instead, RAIZ operates on a model of concrete internationalism—rooting its efforts in the actual relations of production, global displacement patterns, and working-class organization.We discuss the material realities of their focus areas:The Colombian Context: Navigating the complex aftermath of displacement, land conflicts, and regional state violence, and tracing how those struggles connect directly back to Western imperialism and transnational resource extraction.The Migrant Labor Pipeline: How global capital forces displacement from the Global South into the centers of Europe, turning vulnerable migrants into hyper-exploited labor pools.Building Independent Working-Class Power: How RAIZ coordinates across borders to offer material support, link regional organizing struggles, and establish durable counter-institutions that empower workers directly rather than funneling them into state-vetted NGOs.If you are listening from Europe and hear about RAIZ initiatives or their upcoming speaking tour through local newsletters or radical community spaces, we highly encourage you to attend an event, stop by, and get involved. This is how we begin building a concrete, internationalist future with a real revolutionary outlook.Project Links & FundraisingOfficial Website: https://www.raizinternational.org/Fundraising Tour Support: https://chuffed.org/project/gira-venceremosSupport our analysis on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/varnvlogSend us Fan Mail Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

A new report accuses the world's most trusted human rights organizations of a problem that goes far beyond anti-Israel bias: antisemitism, and a culture that pushes out Jewish staff for naming it. This week, Yonit and Jonathan talk to Danielle Haas, a former senior editor at Human Rights Watch who spent 14 years inside the organization before co-founding EiGHT, a watchdog created to scrutinize the watchdogs. Drawing on interviews with over 70 staffers across nine major NGOs, the report documents internal messages calling for "liberating the world from Zionism," leadership reposting inflammatory rhetoric, and a pattern of employees being sidelined the moment they raised concerns. 00:00 Introduction to the Conversation 01:30 Danielle Haas's Background and Experience 03:43 Insights from the New Report on NGOs 07:58 Striking Findings and Internal Messaging 11:31 Challenges Faced by Jewish Employees 17:19 Lack of Accountability in Human Rights Organizations 21:08 Cultural Shifts and Generational Changes 24:46 Association with Militant Organizations 27:20 The Future of Human Rights Organizations 33:00 Reflections on Personal Experience and Change
Nalika Gajaweera (Research Affiliate, Walter H. Capps Center, University of California, Santa Barbara; PhD, Anthropology, University of California, Irvine, 2013) is an anthropologist of Buddhism, race, and ethics, with a focus on community well-being and resilience. Her current book manuscript, Transforming the American Sangha, funded by the Kataly Foundation, is an ethnography of the Insight Meditation movement in North America, focused on the efforts of practitioners of color to raise awareness of oppressive racial conditions in these communities. Her doctoral research examined how Buddhist ethics and practices of giving shaped Sri Lankan local NGOs doing humanitarianism work in the context of two disasters: the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004 and ethnic conflict that ended in 2009. A former Fulbright fellow, Dr. Gajaweera has conducted fieldwork in North America and South Asia, managing and conducting complex multi-stakeholder research projects, exploring power building efforts among marginalized groups. Funders for these projects included Kataly Foundation, John Templeton Foundation, Hilton Foundation and GHR. Nalika Gajawira will collaborate with Ann Gleig on a comparative ethnographic study of how Buddhist communities adopt and adapt popular spiritual exercises such as "secular" mindfulness and yoga classes within a wider Buddhist framework. Their work aims to illustrate the processes, frameworks and relationships that can enable more responsible relationships between specific religious communities and the word of spiritual wellness practices.

Mike Lindell breaks his silence on the Dominion lawsuit, his "trillions to one" Rose Garden moment with President Trump, and his run for Minnesota governor. After five and a half years and more than $20 million in legal bills, Dominion walked away — and the very next day, Lindell dropped an 800-page report. Why did Dominion quit right before he released the evidence? Lance Wallnau sits down with the MyPillow founder for a wide-open conversation about the lawsuits, the money, the machines, and the movement. So what is Mike Lindell really fighting for now? In this episode: * The untold Rose Garden backstory — how Lindell ended up alone on stage with Trump against "trillions to one" odds * Why Dominion dropped its case after 5.5 years, and what's inside the 800-page report he released * The $20 million in Dominion legal bills, the private jet he had to sell, and the four pilots he "burned out" * Running for Minnesota governor while polling number one — and the convention machines that "went down" for three hours * Over $20 billion in alleged Minnesota fraud, 400+ NGOs, and the fight for election integrity This is the conversation Mike Lindell has been waiting to have.

Sudan's civil war may be entering another catastrophic phase. As I write this, a genocidal militia is massing outside a major city in Sudan, El Obeid. NGOs, the United Nations — and even Donald Trump's State Department — are warning of the potential of a major mass atrocity event should El Obeid fall. Yet, the attack appears imminent. In this episode of Global Dispatches, I speak with Mutasim Ali, Legal Advisor at the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights, about the looming threat of mass atrocities in El Obeid, Sudan, as the Rapid Support Forces, the RSF, surround and besiege the city. Sudan's civil war has produced one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, and yet the international response has fallen far short of the scale of the emergency. Mutasim Ali discusses the worsening conflict, the risk of mass atrocities, and why global expressions of concern have not translated into meaningful action. We discuss the dynamics driving the war, the international actors shaping the conflict, and why Sudan has struggled to command the sustained attention it urgently deserves.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, hosts John Solomon and Amanda Head presents a powerful discussion on the troubling rise of nonprofit organizations engaging in questionable activities that undermine American values. Kicking off the episode is an exclusive interview with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant, who sheds light on the government's efforts to investigate nonprofits that have strayed from their charitable missions and are now involved in funding extremism and obstructing law enforcement.Solomon also welcomes Congressman Brandon Gill, chairman of the House Task Force on Nonprofit Abuses, who outlines the committee's focus on tackling Medicaid fraud and the misuse of taxpayer dollars by NGOs. Gill discusses the alarming trend of nonprofits transferring funds to political organizations, raising concerns about potential corruption and the integrity of tax-exempt status.The episode further explores the implications of foreign influence in American nonprofits, featuring insights from James Fitzpatrick of the Center for Advanced Security in America. Fitzpatrick reveals troubling connections between certain NGOs and foreign entities, emphasizing the need for stricter regulations to protect American taxpayers.Finally, Scott Walter, president of the Capital Research Center, joins the conversation to discuss the broader implications of foreign funding in U.S. politics and the urgent need for reform in the nonprofit sector.

President Trump just scored another major immigration victory at the Supreme Court, and it goes straight to the heart of what his base has been demanding for years: control over who stays and who goes. In this new ruling, the Court said Democrats and activist groups *cannot* use the federal courts to block Trump and DHS from ending *Temporary Protected Status (TPS)* for Haitians and Syrians. In practical terms, that means the administration's decision to wind down TPS for roughly *350,000 Haitians* and several thousand Syrians stands, and lower‑court injunctions tying Trump's hands are gone. It also sends a clear message: decisions about TPS designations and terminations are executive and DHS calls, not toys for left‑wing lawyers and UN‑aligned NGOs to play with every time they dislike a president's policy.Sponsor:My Pillowwww.MyPillow.com/JohnPromo Code 'John' at check out for up to 66% off all the amazing products!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Drew, Tom, and Ryan dig into the leftward lurch of the Democratic Party, unpacking the DSA wave behind Mamdani's New York sweep and what it means when self-described communists start winning the safest Democratic seats in the country. The conversation traces how populism is fueled by economic anxiety, why both parties keep racing to the extremes, and whether finding the way back to the middle is even possible anymore. From there, they get into the hard economics: why socialist and communist policies historically break the economy, the calorie-storage origin of the social contract, the freeloader problem that sinks societies, and the real fight over wages, corporations, and whether companies like Walmart and Amazon are the villains people think they are. They take on Trump's threat to sic the DOJ on big oil for price gouging, why government price controls always fail, and how the OPEC cartel and regulatory capture are the actual problems behind what you pay at the pump. The discussion turns global with a hard look at USAID, the claim that foreign aid has been quietly funding NGOs and destabilization movements abroad, Japan dumping US treasuries amid its liquidity crisis, and the financial repression playbook Washington may use to inflate its way out of a crushing national debt. They weigh in on Congress voting to curb hostilities with Iran and what it means for negotiating power. Finally, the episode goes deep on one of the most important debates of the next decade: a Michigan city council banning the pride flag, Muslim immigration and assimilation, whether Islam has had its reformation, separation of church and state, and the candid clash over whether America is truly a Christian nation or simply shaped by Christian values. Whether you're here for sharp political analysis, hard economic truth, or a deeper look at the values shaping society, this episode offers a nuanced, unflinching take on how today's choices will define tomorrow.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today On The Eric Metaxas Show, Eric talks with Mel K about her book Infiltration Instead Of Invasion. Mel argues that America was not conquered by a traditional invasion, but infiltrated through finance, intelligence, international institutions, NGOs, academia, and the post World War II global architecture. They discuss JFK's warning, the Federal Reserve, the Dulles brothers, the CIA, the Bank of International Settlements, Bretton Woods, USAID, NATO, the UN, Trump, sovereignty, and the future of freedom.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World
