The Democrats latest scams, revealed. PLUS, Gloria Giorno, Founder of The Reagan Society and author of Outcast: How the Radical Left Tried to Destroy a Young Conservative, recalls seeing similar patterns of Communist Yugoslavia and University campuses during 2020 and, even though Republicans are winning, points to the assassination of Charlie Kirk to say nothing has changed in the culture of college campuses. And Seamus Bruner, Director of Research at the Government Accountability Institute and author of Controligarchs: Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life, tells Shaun about the latest scam uncovered with the Small Business Association using DEI as a cover and the NGOs that support the border to ballot pipeline fraud complexes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Brazil's COP30, Craig Rucker alleges U.N.-driven top-down control, massive wealth transfers, and political theater that sidelines indigenous voices while rewarding grifters and ideologues. He claims NGOs and activists frame climate as a quasi-religion to justify sweeping policies and funding goals, including a proposed $300 billion-per-year climate fund scaling toward $1.3 trillion by 2035. Rucker argues that many scientists privately temper their alarm. At the same time, public pressure and grants enforce orthodoxy, and he says public skepticism is rising as EV pullbacks and renewed interest in nuclear power challenge green mandates. He urges the Senate to formally reject legacy climate treaties to end the policy “ping-pong” for America.

What does it take to lead with both purpose and perseverance? In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Kate Grant—CEO of the Fistula Foundation and author of No Woman Left Behind—whose remarkable journey from Madison Avenue to global health leadership reveals what can happen when compassion meets conviction.    Kate shares how walking away from a thriving advertising career became the first step toward transforming the lives of more than 100,000 women suffering from obstetric fistula—a preventable childbirth injury that still affects over a million women in the world's most underserved regions. With honesty and humility, she opens up about redefining success, the courage it takes to stay focused on one mission, and how saying "no" to good ideas is often the price of real impact. Cathleen O'Sullivan (Merkel)   Together, Cathleen and Kate explore the intersection of leadership, purpose, and humanity—what it means to build something that lasts, lead with heart, and never look away from the people and problems that need us most. This conversation is for anyone who believes leadership is less about power and more about the lives we choose to touch.     Episode Timeline:   00:03:34 What is obstetric fistula and why it still exists  00:07:39 The devastating social cost: ostracism, shame, and isolation  00:16:21 A survivor's story: 30 years of suffering and the gift of a chicken  00:28:30 Building a global network: from one hospital to 35 countries  00:33:12 The fundraising approach: efficiency, focus, and saying no  00:38:25 Ensuring quality: working with expert surgeons and measuring outcomes  00:47:15 Leaving Madison Avenue: when success isn't enough  00:53:05 The earthquake and breakup that cracked everything open  01:03:11 Redefining success: career, motherhood, and the myth of having it all  01:10:00 What's next: stepping down and training as a therapist  01:19:16 Final wisdom: listen to your inner voice and own your choices     Key Takeaway:   A Hidden Crisis with a Solution: Obstetric fistula—a childbirth injury from obstructed labor—affects at least one million women in Africa and Asia, leaving them incontinent and ostracized. Yet 90% of cases are fixable with surgery, making this needless suffering Kate refuses to accept. Relentless Focus Drives Impact: The Fistula Foundation does one thing exceptionally well—funding surgeries—and has helped over 100,000 women by resisting mission creep, measuring outcomes rigorously, and treating the nonprofit like a results-driven business. Listen to Your Inner Voice: Kate left a successful advertising career after travel exposed her to global poverty and an earthquake cracked her life open—proving that transformation requires quieting external voices and giving your own inner compass a microphone. Empowerment Through Accountability: When problems arise, assume you created them—not to blame yourself, but to empower yourself to learn and fix what's broken rather than playing victim to circumstances or other people. You Can't Have It All at Once: Success means making intentional choices about where to invest finite energy—Kate chose her son and the foundation over remarriage, showing that owning your trade-offs without apology is more honest than pretending you can do everything equally well.     About Kate Grant:   Kate Grant is a global health and social-impact leader with over 25 years of experience advancing maternal health and women's rights worldwide. As President & CEO of Fistula Foundation, she has expanded access to life-changing surgeries for thousands of women across Africa and Asia while building high-performing teams and partnerships with governments and NGOs. She is also the author of No Woman Left Behind – A Journey of Hope to Heal Every Woman Injured in Childbirth, a memoir highlighting her journey from a corporate career to leading a global health movement. Known for her equity-focused, collaborative leadership, Kate's mission is to ensure every woman has the opportunity to live a healthy, dignified life.     Connect with Kate Grant: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-grant-92110561/  Website: https://fistulafoundation.org/  No Woman Left Behind (Book): https://fistulafoundation.org/no-woman-left-behind/      Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/      FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS

Die Folgen der Bombardements und der Vertreibung, die Blockade von Hilfslieferungen erleben aber nicht nur sie. Auch UN-Mitarbeiter*innen, Pflegepersonal, Mediziner*innen und andere Mitarbeiter*innen von NGOs sind davon betroffen. Nicht als direkte Opfer – wohl aber als Zeugen.

In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Booth inside the National Palace El Salvador to dig into a question a lot of people are asking in private. Is El Salvador still Bitcoin country, or did Bukele get captured by the IMF. Jeff shares how he ended up invited by the President, why he first thought he was being used as a marketing prop, and what actually happened during a long conversation on Bitcoin, freedom money, and what it means for a small country trying to escape a global control system.We walk through the IMF and El Salvador story from Jeff's perspective. He explains why a former failed state turned to Bitcoin to escape fiat money and its hidden taxes, yet still decided to take an IMF loan. Jeff shares Bukele's “rat and cheese” analogy, and why the real goal is Salvadorans holding their own keys, running nodes, and building a circular economy in Bitcoin instead of staying stuck in the old system. He also talks about what he saw on the ground, from gang crackdowns and falling crime, to how the historic center now feels safer and more vibrant, and what that means for tourism in El Salvador.From there, we zoom out into the deeper human side. Jeff explains how understanding Bitcoin forces an existential crisis, especially for wealthy people and NGOs who thought they were helping, while actually reinforcing a broken fiat money system. We get into game theory, why most people will cheat if they think they will not get caught, and why the principled minority who run nodes and hold their own keys matter so much. Jeff lays out a simple way to think about moving your time into the Bitcoin economy, starting with a small percentage, then growing it until your life reflects an honest market instead of a control system built on inflation and debt.We close with why Jeff walked away from a huge Twitter audience to spend his time on Nostr, how he thinks about living in alignment in public, and what he is building with Ego Death Capital. He shares how they use Bitcoin as the hurdle rate, why he believes Bitcoin native startups will massively outperform as the old world gets repriced, and how founders in places like El Salvador can collect more Bitcoin by creating real value for real people. If this conversation shifts how you see El Salvador, the IMF, or fiat money, subscribe, drop a comment with your biggest takeaway, and send this to a friend who still refuses to spend sats in Bitcoin Beach.-Bitcoin Beach TeamConnect and Learn more about Jeff Booth:X: https://x.com/JeffBooth Web: https://www.jeffbooth.ca/ Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com Browse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 - Why does Jeff Booth say Bukele understands the global Bitcoin game and the IMF “rat and cheese” trap?01:52 - What first brought Jeff Booth to El Salvador and why were Bitcoiners questioning if it is still Bitcoin country?02:55 - How did the invitation from Bukele's office change Jeff's thinking about El Salvador's Bitcoin strategy?04:02 - Why did Jeff want to look Bukele in the eye before trusting the El Salvador Bitcoin experiment?10:08 - Does Bukele feel the Bitcoin experiment is working and how does he balance IMF money with a Bitcoin vision?13:57 - How different does San Salvador feel today compared to the gang violence years before Bitcoin and Bukele's crackdown?1Live From Bitcoin Beach

Andrew Lowenthal is an Australian digital rights activist, co-founder and former director of the media and technology nonprofit EngageMedia, and the founder of Liber-net, an initiative dedicated to restoring free speech online and exposing digital authoritarianism. Over many years he worked across Southeast Asia on censorship, media freedom and civil society empowerment before shifting his focus to Western democracies, where he observed a rapid expansion of state-aligned speech control. Lowenthal was also part of the Twitter Files investigations in 2022 alongside Matt Taibbi, helping uncover the networks of government agencies, academic labs, NGOs and platforms involved in coordinated content suppression. His expertise lies in mapping these ecosystems and analyzing how governments, foundations and major technology companies shape the boundaries of permissible speech.In this conversation, Andrew Lowenthal breaks down the findings of his extensive report “The Censorship Network in Germany”, created together with a team of German researchers. We discuss why Germany—despite being under the same EU framework as other member states—has developed a uniquely aggressive and institutionally intertwined censorship landscape. Lowenthal explains how more than 300 actors, from ministries to NGOs to fact-checkers, form an ecosystem that flags, moderates and shapes online discourse under the banners of “disinformation,” “hate speech,” and “threats to democracy.” We explore the financial flows behind this system, the blurring of boundaries between state and civil society, and the cultural anxieties that drive Germany's distinct approach.

Such an elevated reading has been seen only a few times over the last 35 years. Over the last 2 years, global central banks have cuts rates 316 times, the highest reading in at least 25 years. To put this into perspective, there were 313 cumulative cuts in 2008-2010 in response to the financial crisis. Global monetary policy is easing. Amazing How Central Bank Money-Printing Reversed around the World after the Inflation Shock  Balance sheets of the Fed, ECB, BOJ, BOE, and central banks of China, Canada, Australia, Switzerland, and India as % of GDP.  The major central banks around the world have been unwinding their balance sheets for the past few years, even the Bank of Japan, which got a late start in 2024. Their balance sheets had swollen to grotesque proportions during the global QE frenzy that started in 2008, and QE-mania during and after the pandemic. But that has been getting unwound. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS), an umbrella organization owned by its member central banks, released its latest quarterly data on central bank balance sheets today. We'll look at the decline of the balance sheets of nine major central banks: Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan, People's Bank of China, Bank of England, Central Bank of India, Bank of Canada, Reserve Bank of Australia, and the Swiss National Bank. In normal times, central-bank balance sheets, including the Fed's balance sheet, grew with the economy, as measured by GDP; and the ratio of total assets as a percentage of GDP back then was low and roughly stable over the years. Years of QE then caused the ratios to explode. And years of QT have now caused the ratios to shrink dramatically.   They're all seeing the same thing: A continued threat of inflation and massive distortions and risks in asset prices, including dangerous housing bubbles that are now deflating in some markets. So they've been removing some of the fuel, to walk back from those risks.

Based on the video clip in the X post you linked, here’s the relevant excerpt from his remarks:“The next couple of years, I think we’ll substantially be cutting and maybe cutting out completely, but we’ll be cutting income tax—could be almost completely cutting it—because the money we’re taking in is going to be so large.”This aligns closely with the claim in the WatcherGuru post. Multiple news outlets have reported on the comments, confirming they are authentic and recent. For context, Trump has floated similar ideas about offsetting or replacing income taxes with tariff revenue multiple times during his campaign and presidency, though experts have questioned the feasibility due to the massive revenue gap (tariffs currently generate far less than income taxes). DOGE Geopolitical Globalist Germany's Firewall Against the AfD Collapses as Half the Country Now Open to Voting for Them For the first time since the party entered parliament about nine years ago, the anti-democratic cordon sanitaire around the right-wing, anti-globalist Alternative für Deutschland appears to have cracked wide open. According to the latest INSA/Bild poll, fewer than half of all German voters (just 49%) now say they would “never” vote AfD—down from a staggering 75% only a few years ago, This is nothing short of a historic breakthrough. Despite years of state-funded smear campaigns, constant domestic intelligence surveillance (Verfassungsschutz), court cases, job dismissals, bank account closures, repeated violence against party members by left-globalist extremists, and even serious discussions about banning the party outright, ordinary Germans are finally seeing through the propaganda and recognizing the AfD as the only serious opposition to a failing system.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread: https://twitter.com/TPASarah/status/1994015487135514931 Sarah Adams@TPASarah Lakanwal, from Khost Province, Afghanistan, was a member of two CIA-supported units that operated under the National Directorate of Security (NDS) of the former Afghan Republic. Although these units belonged to the NDS on paper, their support and direction came directly from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). He served in Unit 01, a special military-intelligence unit responsible for the central zone provinces (Kabul, Parwan, Wardak, and Logar). His agency training in 2007 took place at CIA's Eagle Base near the Deh Sabz district of Kabul province, a few miles from Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA). Eagle Camp, originally built on an old brick factory site, became one of the CIA's most important counterterrorism training centers in the early 2000s. It trained the CIA-backed NDS units including NDS-01, NDS-02, NDS-03, NDS-04, NDS-KPF, and NDS-KSF, and also housed an ammunition depot and multiple facilities for sensitive operations. When U.S. forces left Afghanistan in 2021, Eagle Camp was among the final sites to be evacuated and demolished. It was later handed over to the Haqqani Network's suicide bomber brigade, the Badri 313. Badri 313 moved the suicide bombers through the gate areas of HKIA for the Abbey Gate attack that killed 13 of our servicemembers and approximately 170 Afghans on August 26, 2021. After completing training at Eagle Base, Lakanwal was transferred to the team supporting CIA's Kandahar Base. The site had a long militant history: it housed Mullah Mohammad Omar from 1994–2001, Osama bin Laden from 1998–2001, and later Camp Gecko from 2002–2021, which was used by the CIA and NDS-03. It served as the headquarters of the Kandahar Strike Force, which led CIA-backed counterterrorism operations in Kandahar, Uruzgan, and Zabul provinces against the Taliban, al-Qaeda, and ISIS. Lakanwal took part in counterterrorism missions alongside U.S. forces in Kandahar. After the attack yesterday on our National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, ISIS channels were the first to praise the incident largely because Lakanwal's half-brother (the son of his father's second wife, pictured left) had been a recruiter for the Islamic State–Khorasan Province (ISKP). His brother, Muawiyah Khurasani aka Hayatullah (pictured below), previously worked with Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Orakzai Agency, Pakistan, before formally joining ISKP. He was killed in a targeted operation in July 2022 in Achin district, Nangarhar province. Some ISIS members claimed he was killed by Pakistan's Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), though that remains unconfirmed. After the fall of Kabul in 2021, Lakanwal's unit the Kandahar Protection Force and the Khost Protection Force (KPF) became prime targets for both the Haqqani Network and ISKP, which sought either to blackmail or recruit former KPF members. Recruitment involved persuading them to join voluntarily; blackmail involved coercing them through threats to their families (many were left behind), exposure of past work with the U.S., or financial pressure. Both groups targeted these units specifically because of their close relationships on U.S. soil, particularly with former CIA officers. In addition, both groups, along with al-Qaeda, saw value in impersonating these units. A couple thousand fake documents and ID cards were produced so terrorists could claim affiliation with KPF/01/02 and other special units. This allowed some individuals to fraudulently move through the U.S. evacuation process by exploiting unsuspecting volunteers and taking advantage of weak vetting procedures. We have confirmed that Lakanwal's ID (pictured right) and employment were legitimate, but a full review is recommended, as terrorists have explicitly claimed using this route as a pipeline into the U.S. We cannot keep waiting for Americans to be killed again and again before we act against the Islamist terrorists who have arrived on our soil since 2021. This can no longer fall on the shoulders of a small handful of people sounding the alarm. Every American needs to be engaged: protecting their families, their communities, and our homeland.

In addition, Fox News is reporting that Lakanwal worked with various other government entities from the United States in Afghanistan, including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), specifically as part of the CIA-backed Kandahar Strike Force (KSF), known in most intelligence circles as NDS-03, which operated outside of U.S. and Afghan military chain-of-commands directly under the CIA, carrying out covert, clandestine, counterterrorism operations, including night raids and assassinations against the Taliban and al-Qaeda. https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/1993878815349854361?s=20 CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed that to Fox. “In the wake of the disastrous Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Biden administration justified bringing the alleged shooter to the United States in September 2021 due to his prior work with the U.S. government, including CIA, as a member of a partner force in Kandahar, which ended shortly following the chaotic evacuation,” CIA Director John Ratcliffe told Fox News Digital. “The individual—and so many others—should have never been allowed to come here,” Ratcliffe continued. “Our citizens and service members deserve far better than to endure the ongoing fallout from the Biden administration's catastrophic failures.” Ratcliffe added: “God bless our brave troops.” https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1994201842750837067?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1993882348069552531?s=20 https://twitter.com/CannConActual/status/1993693224196604379?s=20  at a colour revolution. @ColonelTowner and@xAlphaWarriorx have done a good job documenting several. We have been overwhelmingly resistant to these efforts on our homeland through the use of NGOs funding widespread protests and subsequent riots. And as President Trump cut the head off their private sector funding apparatuses (USAID, NED, etc), they are becoming desperate. So they politicized the military, subverted the Constitutional authority of the Commander in Chief, and injected themselves in a chain of command they are NOT a part of. The desperate attempt to execute their plan. This is life or death for the Deep State. https://twitter.com/CynicalPublius/status/1993886979738460646?s=20 There are three phases to a Color Revolution. It’s important to understand this so you can see how the actions of the Sedition 6 fit into this pattern. PHASE ONE: -Form underground opposition networks. -Create strong slogans and powerful information operations as recruitment tools. -Upon a certain well-coordinated signal, well-funded, well-organized mass protests “spontaneously” appear. -The armed wing of the movement conducts carefully coordinated, precision attacks on certain government infrastructure. PHASE TWO:  -Discredit military, security, and law enforcement forces through information operations, coordination with friendly media (Jimmy Kimmel? Talkin’ to you, Komrade Kelly), strikes, civil disobedience, rioting, and sabotage. yOU ARE HER -Occupy civic facilities and refuse to leave until your demands are met. -Strengthen and grow a highly organized logistics support network. -Issue ultimatums to the government, threatening violent uprisings if demands are unmet. The goal is to either have the government acquiesce or engage in violent repression, in each case thereby delegitimizing itself. PHASE THREE:  -Overthrow the government in a “non-violent” manner that is actually quite violent. -Open attacks on authorities, seizure of government buildings, destruction of government symbols. -Coordinate media messaging. If the government attacks, media will accuse the government of attacking “peaceful protestors.” If the government makes concessions, it will appear impotent because protestors will not compromise. -Widespread delegitimization of the government is effective in the minds of the populace; the government either willingly cedes power or is violently removed. -The once underground opposition forces’ leadership now seizes control of the government.   prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it's eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc…    denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization. These goals will be pursued with the aim of achieving a major reduction in illegal and disruptive populations, including those admitted through an unauthorized and illegal Autopen approval process. Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation. Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for — You won't be here for long!

Bärbel Bas wird von Deutschlands Arbeitgebern auf der Bühne ausgelacht. Die entscheidende Frage: Hat unsere Arbeitsministerin das Rentensystem nicht verstanden? Derweil sorgt eine neue Studie von liber-net im Internet für Furore: Es geht um ein gigantisches Zensur-Netzwerk in Deutschland bestehend aus Regierung, NGOs, Medien und mehr. Mario und Sinan werfen einen genaueren Blick auf die Ergebnisse. Außerdem: Sorgt das Rentenpaket für das Ende der Regierung? Und bringt Trump noch vor Weihnachten den Frieden in der Ukraine?

Meta and Deloitte Ireland hosted a Llama for Good Hackathon aimed at empowering Irish NGOs to harness the power of AI for public good. The event, hosted at Meta's International HQ in Ballsbridge, brings together leading NGOs the Open Doors Initiative, Citywise Education and NOW Group to co-create innovative solutions using Meta's Llama AI model. 16 engineers from Deloitte Ireland and Meta will be working on Meta's Llama to develop workable AI prototypes designed to address real-world challenges faced by the participating NGOs, with potential AI solutions ranging from partnering mentors with mentees, to streamlining course delivery for inclusive education programs. Meta's Llama is a free, open source AI model that removes cost barriers and makes advanced technology accessible to NGOs of all sizes. By enabling organisations to build custom solutions tailored to their communities, Llama fosters local innovation and rapid problem-solving. Its efficient design allows deployment even on modest hardware, making it practical for NGOs with limited technical resources. The Open Doors Initiative connects jobseekers with experienced professionals, offering guidance, career advice, and pathways to sustainable employment. Much of this work is currently manual, limiting scale and efficiency. Through the Hackathon, they aim to explore how AI can automate mentor-mentee matching based on industry, experience, and professional goals. Citywise Education, which supports young people in underserved communities on their path to third-level education, is also exploring how to streamline its back-office processes and course delivery - using today's Hackathon as a first step. NOW Group supports neurodiverse people across Ireland with access to training, employment and community opportunities. Through the Hackathon, they aim to explore how AI can link currently siloed data - especially around the publicly available JAM Card - to better identify potential users and business partners and use insights to drive growth and impact. Opened by Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, Peter Burke, Anne O'Leary, Head of Meta Ireland, and Emmanuel Adeleke, Deloitte Ireland partner in Technology & Transformation, today's event will support NGOs in hands-on AI prototyping, and will feature dedicated AI fluency sessions designed to upskill participants and deepen their understanding of artificial intelligence. These sessions will ensure that all attendees, regardless of technical background, gain practical knowledge and confidence in applying AI tools like Llama to their missions. Opening the event Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, said: "I am delighted to take part in today's Llama for Good Hackathon, hosted by Meta and Deloitte Ireland, aimed at actively developing new ways that AI can help NGOs deliver better services to the people and communities they support. Open-source technologies have strong potential to drive long-term innovation, economic growth and competition across our society. Ireland, as a key European digital leader, is building a future where AI is transformative and trusted. Today's event reflects the potential of this technology to create real world impact and positive change". Speaking at the event Anne O'Leary, Head of Meta Ireland, said: "Meta's Llama is a game-changer for NGOs. As an open source and free-to-use AI, Llama removes financial barriers and empowers organisations to innovate locally, building solutions tailored to their communities and missions. Our Llama models have been downloaded over 1.2 billion times, with real-world projects already making a difference - a massive endorsement of the potential for Meta's AI to drive innovation, economic growth, and competition. I'm very proud to see dynamic Irish NGOs like the Open Doors Initiative, Citywise Education and NowGroup benefit from Llama and wider industry expertise at today's Llama for Good Hackathon, and I look forward to seeing how the ideas...

Wat deden 56.000 als deelnemer ingeschreven mensen op COP30, de klimaatconferentie in Brazilië? Er zijn 193 VN-lidstaten, Amerika deed niet mee, dus 192 landen. En dan 56.000 deelnemers? Komt neer op bijna 300 vertegenwoordigers per land. Zijn we knotsgek geworden? Ja, er zaten honderden waarnemers, NGOs en activisten bij, vrijwel allemaal met een eensluidende boodschap: de machtigste landen lappen klimaat en milieu aan hun zolen, en de armste landen kunnen niets zonder hulp. Maar die hulp moet dan weer komen van de rijkste landen, en die zijn juist nu hun pincode vergeten. Is dit een karikatuur? Nee, hoor. The Guardian vatte het mooi samen: 25 jaar geleden sprak Amerika over ‘de as van het kwaad’, nu is het land zelf onderdeel van ‘de as van obstructie’. Amerika voorop. President Trump, die niet meedeed en ook geen delegatie stuurde, noemt de klimaatcrisis ‘nep’ en ‘oplichterij’. De andere leden van de as van obstructie zijn Saoedi-Arabië en Rusland – kortom de drie grootste olie- en gasproducenten ter wereld. Landen die geloven in Trumps mantra, ‘drill, baby, drill’, en geen kwaad woord over fossiele brandstof willen horen. En de landen die er, met de steun van bijna 30 andere landen, met succes op toezagen dat de woorden ‘fossiele brandstof’ niet in een slotverklaring zouden komen. Om niet helemaal toe te geven aan de anti’s, tekende Wopke Hoekstra het slotdocument knarsetandend. Denk ook eens aan de kolossale ecologische voetafdruk van 56.000 mensen op een conferentie, waarvan de overgrote meerderheid per vliegtuig is gekomen. En waarom? De Franse president Macron liet zich ontvallen dat deze massale COP-vergaderingen zelden iets opleveren. Behalve misschien de 21ste editie in 2015, die eindigde met het Verdrag van Parijs. Maar als één ding duidelijk is, dan is het dat de toen voorspelde opwarming van de aarde met 1,5 procent een illusie was, waarschijnlijk wordt het 2,3 of 2,5 graden. Wat de COP-gangers zouden kunnen doen is nu alvast in hun roeiboot of op de fiets naar het Turkse Antalya stappen. Dan zijn ze net op tijd voor COP31, over een jaar. Of komen er weer 56.000 deelnemers, per vliegtuig, om de reprise mee te maken van de heiligverklaring van fossiele brandstof?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Throughout the movement to free Soviet Jews, American Jewish aid organizations deployed caseworkers around the world to help resettle Jewish emigres. Beginning in the 1960s, NGOs like HIAS (the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society) helped hundreds of thousands of Soviet Jews find new homes in the United States, Israel, Canada, and other nations, just as they had done after World War II. By the late 1980s, tensions emerged far beyond Cold War politics, as American Jewish organizations and the Israeli government came to proverbial blows over where Refuseniks who obtained exit visas would go. Narrated by Rebecca Naomi Jones, featuring Jonathan Dekel-Chen, the Rabbi Edward Sandrow Chair in Soviet & East European Jewry at the Hebrew University; and Mark Hetfield, former caseworker and current President of HIAS.

Now, a study of IRS data by the National Taxpayers Union Foundation found that California is losing a taxpayer roughly every minute, as states like Florida, Texas, and North Carolina attract new residents due to lower taxes and higher standards of living. In comparison, Florida gains a new taxpayer every 2 minutes and 9 seconds while Texas gains one every 2 minutes and 53 seconds. The result has been a bonanza for Florida, which is now collecting $4 billion more per year for its budget.

Democrats AND Republicans agreed. The bill introduced tight immigration quotas, new visa requirements, the Border Patrol, and outright banned immigrants from certain countries that we viewed as incompatible with our culture. It dramatically reduced the number of people coming into the country, and provided an opportunity for the recent “great wave” of immigrants to assimilate. By the 1940’s and 1950’s, American society thrived with a boomimg economy, rising middle class, common culture and limited immigration. The Act was in place until 1965. Since then, we have experienced decades of *historic* immigration, both legal and illegal. Today we have higher levels of foreign-born than the early 1900's by both raw number and percentage of population. This mass immigration has also included vastly different cultures than the mostly Europeans we accepted then. It's obvious that we once again need to make a national policy shift, and it should be bipartisan… It's time for another Immigration Act. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1992591518314668440?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1992794921569517639?s=20 DOGE  https://twitter.com/ElectionWiz/status/1992754205308944525?s=20 https://twitter.com/drawandstrike/status/1992765443052814719?s=20 based on recent reports, it’s true that DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) has been integrated into many federal agencies through embedded teams, staff, or operational units—often described as “DOGE offices” or equivalents—that continue its mission of efficiency, waste reduction, and oversight. This decentralization followed the quiet disbandment of DOGE as a standalone entity around November 2025, ahead of its original July 2026 expiration.  While sources vary on the exact scope (e.g., “all” vs. “many” agencies), the embedding is widespread and includes: Office of Personnel Management (OPM): Acts as a central hub for DOGE’s workforce reduction directives, with embedded staff handling HR overhauls and agency-wide efficiency mandates.  Office of Management and Budget (OMB): Institutionalizes DOGE’s tools for deregulation, AI audits, and budget cuts, with teams funded through agency IT modernization funds.  Department of Health and Human Services (HHS): Former DOGE staffers in roles like chief technology officer, focusing on fraud detection and program streamlining.  State Department: Embedded personnel overseeing foreign assistance and efficiency reforms. Department of Education: DOGE teams with access to federal student loan data and other systems for waste elimination. Treasury Department (including IRS): Staff integrated for system access and financial oversight. Other agencies: Reports mention integration in the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of Naval Research, General Services Administration (GSA), Social Security Administration, and dozens more, with over 100 former DOGE staffers reassigned across the government. Some agencies were directed to establish minimum teams of four specialists (e.g., engineer, HR expert, lawyer, and lead) coordinating with a rebranded U.S. DOGE Service in the Executive Office of the President. This model makes DOGE’s influence more pervasive and harder to dismantle, as it’s no longer a single target but distributed “watchdogs” with data access and decision-making roles. Critics, including Democrats, have raised concerns about political influence from these embedded staffers. Overall, while not every minor agency may have a formal “DOGE office,” the embedding affects a broad swath of the federal government, with ongoing activities like contract terminations (e.g., $1.9 billion in recent cancellations).

The pirates were generally under the control of the Ottoman Tripolitania, and many were true privateers: i.e., civilian ships and civilian crews causing great harm to American interests. So President Thomas Jefferson sent the Navy and the Marine Corps to North Africa to blow those private ships and crews the hell out of the water. Tommy J. didn't have Predator drones like Trump is using to blow narcoterrorists out of the water who are trying to slaughter hundreds of thousands of Americans with fentanyl, but Tommy did have some kick-ass Marines to blow pirates out of the water who were enslaving American citizens. Right on the shores of Tripoli. Hence the song. But Democrats are too stupid to know what that means. ‘Murica. Blowing up civilian ships since 1801, all to protect America. So how about it, you lobotomite Democrats? Were Tommy J.'s orders lawful or unlawful? We all know the answer, even though you won't admit it. Lawful. Just like Trump's lawful preservation of American lives from the scourge of fentanyl. Learn a little history, you Democrat goons. Now go write the Marines' Hymn 5,000 times on the blackboard until you learn your lesson.  War/Peace Europe’s Counter-Plan For Ukraine Peace Leaves Door Wide Open For NATO Admission  Even as the Trump White House is busy in Europe trying to get NATO and EU states on board its 28-point peace plan which controversially demands the Ukrainian side cede territory, the Europeans have leaked their own counter-plan which proposes much less in the way of compromise with Russia. The UK, France, and Germany have put forward their own counter-proposal, and the draft differs sharply from the US version. Like with prior proposed deals, it contains terms which Moscow is expected to flatly reject, mostly notably it does not provide guarantees that Ukraine will stay out of NATO, and also absent is the ceding of any territory. While Trump’s plan makes clear that Ukraine must renounce ever joining NATO, the European draft states that Ukraine's potential NATO membership “depends on the consensus of NATO members, which does not exist.” This intentionally ambiguous language of course leaves leaves the door wide open, dependent on when such consensus is reached.

The case was dismissed without prejudice. Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a Clinton appointee ruled that US Attorney Lindsey Halligan was invalidly appointed: For the reasons set forth above, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows: 1. The appointment of Ms. Halligan as Interim U.S. Attorney violated 28 U.S.C. § 546 and the Appointments Clause of the U.S. Constitution. 2. All actions flowing from Ms. Halligan's defective appointment, including securing and signing Mr. Comey's indictment, were unlawful exercises of executive power and are hereby set aside. 3. The Attorney General's attempts to ratify Ms. Halligan's actions were ineffective and are hereby set aside. 4. Mr. Comey's motion to dismiss the indictment (ECF No. 60) is granted in accordance with this order. 5. The indictment is dismissed without prejudice. 6. The power to appoint an interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 546 during the current vacancy lies with the district court until a U.S. Attorney is nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate under 28 U.S.C. § 541.

It would also end the premium hikes, end zero-premium subsidies, and STOP massive fraud known as “ghost beneficiaries.” Trump recently said: “I am calling today for insurance companies NOT to be paid. But for this massive amount of money be paid DIRECTLY to the people so they can buy their own healthcare!” “We will pay a lot of money to the people, and FORGET this Obamacare madness!” Klobuchar Delivers Insane Word Salad When Asked What Specific “Illegal” Orders Trump Issued the Military (VIDEO)  NBC's Kristen Welker actually pressed Democrat Senator Amy Klobuchar about the seditious Democrat lawmakers and their viral video urging the military to refuse President Trump's orders.   NBC's Kristen Welker on Sunday asked Klobuchar what specific “illegal acts” the seditious Democrats were referring to in the viral video. “I wonder, do you know what the specific, illegal acts are that your democratic colleagues were referring to there?” Kristen Welker asked Klobuchar. Klobuchar could not answer Welker. She delivered a word salad about the National Guard and a District Judge's order. “If their commander were to tell them, hey go out on the streets… and do this and that, that's not following the order that is in law,” Klobuchar said.

Send me a messageWhat happens to your supply chain when it gets too hot for workers to show up?In this episode I'm joined by Kevin Vranes, Chief Product Officer at Worldly, a platform working with tens of thousands of suppliers to generate real sustainability intelligence across global supply chains. We dig into why climate exposure, labour disruption, tightening disclosure rules, and escalating NGO scrutiny are converging into one of the biggest resilience challenges companies have ever faced, and why the old ways of managing risk simply won't cut it anymore.You'll hear how rising heat stress across manufacturing regions is creating a very real form of operational fragility, with knock-on effects that most leadership teams still underestimate. Kevin explains why the gap between brand-level assumptions and on-the-ground realities is widening, and why primary data from deep-tier suppliers is becoming essential infrastructure rather than a “nice to have”.We break down where AI is genuinely transforming sustainability analysis, including the shift from weeks of spreadsheet work to seconds of machine-driven insight, and where human relationships, incentives, and policy signals still determine whether change actually happens on the factory floor. And you might be surprised to learn why NGOs, not regulators, may become the true enforcers of global climate disclosure.If you care about supply chain resilience, Scope 3, data visibility, or the next wave of sustainability risk, this episode goes right to the heart of what's coming, and what leaders need to prepare for.

Jason Chaffetz, Fox News Contributor, host of the podcast Jason In the House, former House Oversight Committee Chairman, and author of They're Coming For You: How Deep State Spies, NGOs, and Woke Corporations Plan to Push You Out of the Economy, joined The Guy Benson Show today to react to Jasmine Crockett's wild claim that numerous Republicans received donations from "Jeffrey Epstein," even though she clearly failed to mention that this was an entirely different individual than the infamous Epstein. Chaffetz and Benson discussed how Crockett chases viral moments instead of representing her constituents via stunts like this in the House. Guy and Jason then broke down the "refuse illegal orders" video from prominent Democrats who told soldiers to reject vaguely defined commands, and why these members of Congress are doing a huge disservice to the country, and might be bordering on treason.

For ten years between 2003 and 2013, Chinese organizer Lu Jun worked to build a movement of advocacy and litigation to secure human rights.  He first joined the fight against stigma attached to people with Hepatitis B that limited their access to education and work, and later founded what was to become the main human rights organization in China, the Yirenping Center.  But that was under then President Hu Jintao. When Xi Jinping came to power, political space shrunk sharply. In this episode,  Lu Jun reflects on how a nationwide network of lawyers and NGOs coped with the crackdown and shows how human rights work continues.

Als Oberstaatsanwältin bei der Staatsanwaltschaft Köln hat sie jahrelang gegen Steuerbetrüger ermittelt. Sie ließ weltweit Razzien durchführen und die Büros von Großbanken durchsuchen. Sie brachte Licht ins Dunkel illegaler Geschäfte, mit denen der Staat um Milliarden betrogen wurde. Rund 1700 Beschuldigte hatte sie dabei im Visier, gleichzeitig musste sie immer wieder mit Personalmangel in ihrer Behörde und fehlender Unterstützung durch Politik und Verwaltung kämpfen. Im Frühjahr 2024 zog sich Anne Brorhilker aus der Justiz zurück und gab ihr Beamtenverhältnis auf. „Ich war nicht frustriert“, stellt sie klar. Sie glaube immer noch, „dass man das System wieder in Schwung bringen kann“. Dafür kämpft sie jetzt als Geschäftsführerin der Bürgerbewegung Finanzwende. In ihrem gerade erschienenen Buch "Cum/Ex, Milliarden und Moral" (Heyne) schildert sie ihre Erfahrungen. Bei FREIHEIT DELUXE gehen Jagoda Marinić und Anne Brorhilker der Frage nach, warum wir Steuerhinterziehung - trotz viel größerer Schäden - oft eher tolerieren als Sozialhilfebetrug. Sie beleuchten die Rolle der Politik im Umgang mit der Finanzlobby und fragen nach den Einflussmöglichkeiten der Zivilbevölkerung. Und sie untersuchen, warum Steuerbetrug nicht nur kriminell ist, sondern auch eine Bedrohung für Demokratie und Freiheit. Hier hört ihr… wie Anne Brorhilker den Rahmen des Gewohnten bei der Staatsanwaltschaft sprengte (4:00) warum Extrawürste Behörden voranbringen (7:30) wann Staatsanwälte sich oft lieber die Augen zuhalten (21:15) welche Freiheiten Beamte haben (22:30) warum Finanzminister bei Steuerhinterziehung mit den Schultern zucken (32:45) was NGOs der mächtigen Finanzlobby entgegensetzen können (49:00) welche Freiheiten Anne Brorhilker heute hat (55:30) warum wir mehr über Geld sprechen sollten (1:04:20) warum der Kampf gegen Steuerbetrug auch ein Freiheitskampf ist (1:17:45) FREIHEIT DELUXE mit Jagoda Marinić ist eine Produktion des Hessischen Rundfunks in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Börsenverein des deutschen Buchhandels.

This Wednesday the Commission will present a major omnibus plan to simplify digital rules, everything from data protection to the freshly minted AI Act.Officials call it a way to ease burdens on European companies. Critics including MEPs, NGOs, and a good number of lawyers, say it's more like opening Pandora's box.

We've talked to many design leaders who have burned out after a decade or more of corporate work. But after 17 years at Philips designing health innovations, Cecilia Brenner wasn't burnt out…she loved it. And she wanted to find a way to scale her sense of purpose, so she joined Design for Good as Managing Director, and found a way to work with hundreds of designers who want meaningful impact without leaving their day jobs. This is a preview of a premium episode, find the full episode on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/cecilia-brenner Design for Good mobilizes what Cecilia calls a “radical global action collective”—1,600 designers from companies like Philips, Lloyds Bank, and others—to tackle UN Sustainable Development Goals through focused, two-year cycles. Their first cycle addressed clean water and sanitation. Now they're working on quality education. And here's the twist: everything they create is open source. In our conversation, Cecilia explains how Design for Good measures real impact (not estimated future impact), why they chose to focus on one SDG at a time instead of spreading resources thin, and what it means to design for “all life,” not just human life. If you've ever wondered how to find more meaning in your design work—or questioned whether purpose-driven projects actually move the needle—this episode offers a surprisingly practical model. Bio Cecilia Brenner is the Managing Director of Design for Good, a global alliance dedicated to creating lasting, measurable impact for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Since joining in May 2024, Cecilia has successfully led the charity in mobilising hundreds of creatives to design in close collaboration with NGOs and affected communities worldwide. With over 25 years of international experience in design and leadership, Cecilia is a catalyst for inclusion, innovation, and impact. She previously served as an Experience Design Director & Business Partner at Philips, where she spent 17 years improving people's health and well-being through meaningful innovation, building high-performing, engaged global design teams and communities, as well as leading transformational programmes with a unique blend of network leadership, team-building excellence, and strategic insight. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

Dr. Kurt Ver Beek In this episode of the Nonprofit Leadership podcast, host Dr. Rob Harter sits down with Dr. Kurt Ver Beek — longtime sociologist, adjunct professor at Calvin University, and co‑founder of the Honduran‑based nonprofit Association for a More Just Society (ASJ). Kurt has lived in Honduras for 30 + years and helps lead ASJ's mission of advancing justice through structural reform rather than simply charity. Their discussion explores how nonprofits can transition from short‑term relief approaches to tackling systemic issues, particularly in contexts of high violence, corruption, and migration. Key Topics Include: The motivation behind founding ASJ in Honduras and shifting focus from relief to justice‑oriented work. The four‑part strategy ASJ employs: investigation, alliance building, communications, and lobbying/incidence. Real‑world examples from Honduras: tackling police corruption, reducing homicide rates, auditing government institutions. Navigating donor expectations when working on long‑term systemic change rather than immediate tangible outcomes. Insights on the migration‑to‑the‑U.S. debate: root causes in origin countries like Honduras, and how systems reform might reduce migration pressures. Reflections on international aid: what works, what doesn't, and how U.S. federal funding cuts are reshaping NGOs' strategies. The distinction between charity (relief), development (capacity building) and justice (systemic transformation) — and why justice work is harder, riskier, but essential.

Episode 199 with Kosta Scholiadis, Founder and CEO of Street Wallet, a South African fintech company empowering informal traders and street vendors to access the digital economy.Kosta brings a wealth of entrepreneurial insight and purpose driven innovation to this conversation about financial inclusion and the digital transformation of Africa's informal economy. Founded in Cape Town, Street Wallet emerged from the recognition that South Africa's one million street vendors have been largely excluded from the rapidly expanding cashless ecosystem.Kosta shares how Street Wallet's simple yet powerful technology allows vendors to accept digital payments without needing a bank account or smartphone. He explains how the company's interoperable platform, QR based payment system, and strategic partnerships with leading NGOs are improving financial access, increasing incomes, and building economic resilience among underserved communities.Fresh from securing R6.2 million in funding and acquiring Digitip, a platform that enables informal workers to receive digital tips, Kosta discusses how these developments are accelerating Street Wallet's mission to create an inclusive and accessible digital economy.What We Discuss With KostaKosta's journey to founding Street Wallet and the inspiration behind creating a fintech platform for South Africa's one million informal traders.How Street Wallet's low tech, high trust digital payment system is helping unbanked street vendors join the digital economy.The impact of Street Wallet's R6.2 million funding round, the acquisition of Digitip.How partnerships with NGOs, retailers, and service providers like Plush Car Wash are scaling financial access and resilience for informal workers.Street Wallet's vision for expanding across Africa and shaping the future of cashless payments and financial inclusion in the informal economy.Did you miss my previous episode where I discuss How Climate-Resilient Greenhouses and Digital Tools Are Transforming African Farming?

Across the global South, poor women's lives are embedded in their social relationships and governed not just by formal institutions – rules that exist on paper – but by informal norms and practices. Village Ties: Women, NGOs, and Informal Institutions in Rural Bangladesh (Rutgers UP, 2021) takes the reader to Bangladesh, a country that has risen from the ashes of war, natural disaster, and decades of resource drain to become a development miracle. The book argues that grassroots women's mobilization programs can empower women to challenge informal institutions when such programs are anti-oppression, deliberative, and embedded in their communities. Qayum dives into the work of Polli Shomaj (PS), a program of the development organization BRAC to show how the women of PS negotiate with state and society to alter the rules of the game, changing how poor people access resources including safety nets, the law, and governing spaces. These women create a complex and rapidly transforming world where multiple overlapping institutions exist – formal and informal, old and new, desirable and undesirable. In actively challenging power structures around them, these women defy stereotypes of poor Muslim women as backward, subservient, oppressed, and in need of saving.

Across the global South, poor women's lives are embedded in their social relationships and governed not just by formal institutions – rules that exist on paper – but by informal norms and practices. Village Ties: Women, NGOs, and Informal Institutions in Rural Bangladesh (Rutgers UP, 2021) takes the reader to Bangladesh, a country that has risen from the ashes of war, natural disaster, and decades of resource drain to become a development miracle. The book argues that grassroots women's mobilization programs can empower women to challenge informal institutions when such programs are anti-oppression, deliberative, and embedded in their communities.

Alex de Waal, executive director of the World Peace Foundation and Research Professor at the Fletcher School, Tufts University, historicises the way “famine” in the postcolonial era was an extremely emotional word for which, fifty years ago, there were no appropriate structures nor any objective scientific metric for understanding where or when famine was occurring. By 1984-1985, however, the neoliberal governments of Thatcher and Reagan became deeply embarrassed by the famine in Ethiopia, de Waal narrates. From this embarrassment, an industry of refining the metrics of understanding what counted as famine, and what did not, was born, and from this, the IPC, or Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, was developed as the standardised UN system used to classify the severity of food insecurity and malnutrition in a specific area. De Waal discusses how the international aid system has been shackled into into viewing famine in a very apolitical way, refusing to exam the structural causes driving famine largely because international NGOs steered away from criticising governments in order to maintain cooperation for their relief work and that Western publics give assistance to victims of natural disasters as part of the “white saviour” theatre which depends upon eliding the political causes. Declaiming the importance of photography in chronicling the history of famine—from the Warsaw Ghetto, to the famine in Ethiopia (1983-1985), and Gaza—de Waal observes the dual role of these photos: first, that the perpetrator of famine was not only absent from the frame, but was often the person taking the photo; and second, that because the perpetrator was rarely within the frame, the subjects of these photos were often blamed as the true perpetrators of famine, such that Jews attempting to preserve a “veneer of normality” in the Warsaw Ghetto or Palestinians in Gaza who are more portly, were ultimatley inculpated as the cause of the famine. Considering the merits of Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWSNET), he notes that it lacks the key element of examining the policies and intention of those doing the starvation. De Waal underscores that “to starve” does not just refer to the experience of people starving, but it also means the act of starving people, as he goes on to describe how the East India Company, through onerous taxation from 1769 to 1770, created a famine in Bihar and Bengal, ultimately killing one-third of the population.

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has waged an unprecedented offensive on Gaza. What began as retaliation against Hamas attacks has escalated into relentless violence. According to Statista, by July 30, 2025, more than 60,000 Palestinians had been killed by Israeli bombardments, including over 18,000 children. As early as November 2023, UN rapporteurs, NGOs, and lawyers warned that Israel's actions amounted to genocide, an accusation Israel and its allies reject. What does the term genocide mean? How does international law define genocide? Do these criteria apply to Gaza? Who can prosecute genocide? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Joe Untamed unleashes unfiltered truth on the battles defining our republic. This is no tame talk show; it's a war cry for the forgotten, a floodlight on corruption's darkest corners, and a merciless roast of the elite's assault on freedom. From thunderous Veterans Day salutes to deep-state exposés and savage takedowns of the left's emotional chaos, Joe Oltmann Untamed equips you with facts, fury, and faith to fight back. Tune in as we honor heroes, dismantle lies, and reclaim our nation—one explosive, righteous segment at a time. God bless our veterans; God bless the untamed spirit of America!On this sacred November 11, 2025, Joe Oltmann Untamed erupts in a roaring tribute to our invincible warriors—the unbreakable backbone of the world's greatest republic. Launch with a heart-pounding montage of White House and DHS videos honoring those who charged Normandy's blood-soaked beaches and held the line in Afghanistan's unforgiving peaks, declaring: Your sacrifice isn't history; it's the eternal flame of liberty we swear to defend. But as parades fade, the show dives into raw outrage: Why do J6 Pipe Bomber leads go cold while FBI incompetence hides behind silence? With explosive Twitter clashes from Julie Kelly and insider rifts fracturing alliances, we expose the cover-ups stalling justice—no arrests since the Blaze Report. This isn't remembrance; it's reckoning—demanding accountability for the patriots betrayed while the swamp protects its own.Enter the arena with Michael F. Vecchione, the legendary ex-Brooklyn Chief of Homicide & Rackets—the prosecutor who toppled corrupt judges, dismantled mob empires, and secured convictions against Assemblyman Clarence Norman and Justices Victor Barron and Gerald Garson. With decades of battling organized crime and political rot, Vecchione unpacks NYC's activist-fueled DA takeover under Mayor Mamdani, Soros-backed NGOs laundering influence through "advocacy," and the DOJ's kid-glove treatment of Comey and Letitia James—mirroring the rackets he once shredded. Then, flip to unapologetic hilarity in the "Liberals and Low IQ" block: Skewering feelz-over-facts snowflakes with the viral "Liberal Starter Pack" cartoon—kale smoothies, participation trophies, and rainbow totes—while replaying UC Berkeley's Antifa warzone meltdown at a Turning Point event, from brawling arrests to barricade chaos. Cap it with absurd clips: A land-owning liberal spitting in faces, ethnic food bans for Trump voters, Antifa's pepper-spray picnics, and BBC's "trans milk" lunacy. Joe Oltmann Untamed doesn't whisper; it roars—laugh, rage, and rise with us.

Richie is joined by the archaeologist and historian Dr Eoin Lenihan to discuss his new book "Vandalising Ireland." In the book Eoin contends that there is a network — government bodies, NGOs, academics, media — that is actively reshaping Irish society in line with “globalist” values, rather than the interests of “native Irish” culture and sovereignty. He highlights the forced settlement of large numbers of asylum seekers into Irish communities; transformations of local identity; the loss of economic self-reliance and the erosion of local cultural roots.Buy the book here:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Vandalising-Ireland-Government-Engineering-Globalist/dp/1959666851/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=3DDAARWNQA11Y&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.oTqp8gcrl7ft1xSZmjJoUjNsNEOGU6uOdv4etyLWAwA.PQtc4c5OfC90JjyrZhMJs3RdtVxLlT47_AljEYH0m7c&dib_tag=se&keywords=vandalising+ireland&qid=1762974867&sprefix=vandalising+irelan%2Caps%2C133&sr=8-1-spons&aref=YRGDm3h1qz&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1Follow Eoin here:https://x.com/EoinLenihan

They showed it to you and then they shut it down. NGOs the world over getting unverified, often untraceable, no-questions-asked disbursements from the US Treasury. To the tune of hundreds of billions a year. This was ON TOP OF the billions they were sending to Ukraine and about 60 other countries as 'foreign aid'. They extract a massive amount of wealth from the American public yearly. Around $2 trillion, I think. Then, they used the US Treasury payment system to disburse over 100 billion/year to their NGOs around the world to launder that money to themselves. This was probably one of the BIGGEST revenue streams they had. And it was the first one Trump and the DOGE boys cut earlier this year. When this was happening, you had the lawmakers in Congress and former presidential administration officials SCREAMING at Trump and Bessent to turn the USAID and other NGO disbursements back on.

As world leaders, businesses and NGOs start their journeys to Brazil for the COP30 climate talks, more than 200,000 people attended ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi, the world's biggest energy event. Energy Gang was there to bring you the highlights from the week's discussions. One of the key talking points was the theme of energy addition, rather than transition. In other words, the idea that new renewables and other low-carbon sources are adding to global energy supplies, rather than replacing fossil fuels. With forecasts showing an acceleration in power demand growth driven by AI, and the continuing need for increased energy supply to raise living standards in low and middle-income countries, calls for a rapid transition away from oil, gas and coal seem to many to be unrealistic. At ADIPEC, the conversation centred around the vision of new low-carbon supplies stacking on top of hydrocarbons, to reduce costs, increase access and cut emissions intensity. But there was confidence in the prospect of robust global demand for oil and gas, in particular, for decades to come. To debate that vision and assess what it means for the world, host Ed Crooks is joined by energy executives and analysts who have been part of the conversation. Dr Carole Nakhle is the founder and CEO of Crystol Energy, an independent advisory firm. She was first up to discuss whether decarbonisation targets are being pushed further into the future, and how they can be met if clean energy is complementing fossil fuels rather than replacing them. “Complementarity beats substitution,” Carole says. What does that mean for energy security, access and emissions? Next, Ed spoke with John Gilley, CEO of Kent, which designs and engineers assets for the energy industry, including both oil and gas and low-carbon technologies. John isn't worried about a slowdown in clean energy deployment. When energy is cheaper, it gets used, he says, and solar and wind keep winning on cost. He believes climate change is the greatest challenge of our times, and his purpose at Kent is to support ways to tackle it, while meeting the world's demand for energy. John and Ed talk it all through.Sascha Sissiou is sales director for the Middle East and Africa at Aerzen, a German manufacturer of equipment for oil and gas and other industries. Sascha argues that, far from the momentum towards decarbonisation slowing, it is actually speeding up, as reflected in demand from Aerzen's customers. Demand for flare-gas recovery and other emissions reduction technologies has grown, and Aerzen is rolling out new large compressors for the hydrogen industry. Sustainability standards now influence sourcing, logistics and manufacturing across industries from wastewater to petrochemicals. Next, Clay Seigle, senior fellow at the thinktank CSIS, talks about the implications of sustained oil demand for energy security. On climate, he highlights the importance of industry-led investments in methane controls and carbon capture. Looking ahead, permitting reform could emerge as the next big US energy story; Clay explains why. Finally, as the Energy Gang prepares to switch focus to COP30, Ed sat down with Bjorn Otto Sverdrup, who's the head of the secretariat for the Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter. They bring together more than 50 leading oil and gas companies from around the world to work together to cut their emissions. Bjorn says the industry's top CEOs are staying the course on near-term decarbonisation goals with high impact - cutting methane and eliminating routine flaring by 2030 – because they make operational and reputational sense. There will be more to come on this issue at COP30. We will be bringing you all the big stories and exclusive commentary and analysis on COP30 from our energy expert friends, as well as some new voices. So don't forget to follow the show wherever you get your podcasts, to keep up with all our coverage of the climate talks over the next two weeks. This episode was recorded live at ADIPEC 2025, the world's largest energy event, held in Abu Dhabi from 3–6 November. With more than 205,000 attendees and 1,800 speakers, this year's theme - Energy Intelligence Impact - sparked vital conversations about the future of energy.
