Podcast appearances and mentions of Nicholas Kristof

The New York Times just printed a claim that Israeli prison guards trained dogs to rape Palestinian prisoners. The byline read that Nicholas Kristof was "reporting." As in: these are facts. They aren't. No evidence. No credible sources. Just allegations from a Hamas-linked organization and a George Soros-funded group with a documented history of false claims against Israel. Now Prime Minister Netanyahu is suing the Times for libel. The American Jewish Committee calls it modern blood libel. And one Palestinian writer says even Kristof's own sources can't be trusted. This is what antisemitism looks like in 2026. Thank you to our sponsor: Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.

For B'Tselem executive director Yuli Novak, the firestorm around the New York Times column by Nicholas Kristof decrying sexual violence by Israelis against Palestinians in the West Bank and in Israeli prisons has had the wrong focus. Speaking on the Haaretz Podcast, Novak said the Israeli government’s "propaganda machine" and other critics focused on challenging the facts regarding the abuse described in the piece, which she says are backed up by "dozens of testimonies" collected by her organization. "I would say it's much less a question whether these things [sexual abuse of Palestinians] are happening or not happening, and much more about what it means for all of us, and first and foremost for the victims." In its report on prisons, based on testimonies from Palestinians detained and then released from 16 detention facilities after October 7, B’Tselem documented "ongoing torture, physical and mental" abuse and the use of starvation and denial of medical treatment "as a policy." B’Tselem’s conclusion: that these facilities represented "a network of torture camps," which Novak admitted "was hard to grasp as an Israeli. For me – torture camps have been something that happens somewhere else." October 7 had been an opportunity and a “catalyst” for right-wing extremists in the government to influence policies in the direction of “their nationalist, racist, and in the case of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and the prison system – I would even say their sadistic agenda,” Novak said. “We can keep telling ourselves that we're a democracy, but if Israel, holding almost half of its population under its control without the right to go and vote for the system that governs them, it's not a democracy.” Read more: B'Tselem Report: Testimonies Describe 'Pattern of Sexual Violence' Against Palestinian Prisoners UN Secretary-General Report Accuses Israeli Forces of Rape, Sexual Abuse of Palestinian Detainees Ben-Gvir Is Not Alone: These Are His Collaborators in the Illegal Treatment of Palestinian Prisoners Op-ed by Yuli Novak: Even if You Call Israel a Democracy, It Is Still Apartheid Israel Must Let Red Cross Visit Palestinian Security Prisoners, High Court Rules Read B'Tselem's full report on Israeli prisons as a network of torture campsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

California voters approved Proposition 12 by a decisive 63% margin, establishing minimum space requirements for farm animals and restricting the sale of pork, eggs, and veal produced from animals confined in spaces smaller than those standards. For pork producers, the law effectively prohibits the sale of meat from pigs born to sows housed in gestation crates that fail to meet California’s requirements. State regulators and many pork processors have maintained that California’s pork demand can be supplied under Proposition 12, although compliance costs may contribute to somewhat higher prices—much as California consumers often pay premiums for products produced under stricter standards. Opponents of Proposition 12 vowed to challenge the law all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. In 2023, however, the Court upheld the measure in a closely divided 5–4 decision.Writing for the majority, Justice Neil Gorsuch concluded that states have broad authority to regulate products sold within their borders, even when those regulations affect producers in other states. The Court rejected arguments that the Constitution’s dormant Commerce Clause bars statesfrom adopting non-discriminatory laws simply because they impose compliance costs on a national industry. While the Constitution prohibits economic protectionism, the Court held that it does not prevent voters from restricting products they believe are produced through practices they consider cruel or unethical, provided the law applies equally to in-state and out-of-state businesses.Having failed in the courts, opponents have shifted their efforts to Congress. Language included in proposed Farm Bill legislation—often referred to by supporters as the “Save Our Bacon” provision—would limit states’ ability to impose production standards on agricultural products sold within their borders. Critics argue that the provision would effectively overturn Proposition 12 and similar state laws. The debate has attracted national attention. In a New York Times opinion essay titled “America’s Livestock Gulag,” columnist Nicholas Kristof argued that “the pork industry istrying to pull a fast one with this year’s farm bill,” citing polling that found strong public opposition to housing pregnant sows in gestation crates. A common misconception is that gestation crates are necessary to prevent sows from crushing piglets. That concern is generally addressed through the use of farrowing crates, which are used for a relatively short period around birth and weaning. Gestation crates, by contrast, typically confine pregnant sows in narrow metal enclosures for their 114- day pregnancy. Many pork producers in Europe have adapted to alternative housing systemsfollowing restrictions or bans on gestation crates. The question now moves from the courtroom to Capitol Hill: Should Congress override the will of voters and the Supreme Court’s ruling through the Farm Bill, or should states retain the authority to establish animal welfare standards for products sold within their borders?For listeners seeking a broader and balanced discussion of pig housing systems, we also recommend our earlier conversation with Dr. Pete Lammers of the University of Wisconsin–Platteville, who explores the practical, economic, and animal welfare dimensions of providing space for pigs.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. ToI founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As US President Donald Trump seeks to finalize an agreement with Iran that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz but won't limit the regime's ballistic missile program, thwart its nuclear ambitions or constrain its capacity to wage terrorism around the world, Horovitz discusses Israel’s absence from the negotiations and its need to assert its independent capacity to defend itself. After National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir taunted hundreds of detainees from the latest flotilla and received only a light rebuke from Netanyahu, Horovitz recalls that the prime minister just a few years ago said that the hawkish Ben Gvir didn't represent Israel's values and would never have a seat in his government. Ben Gvir is in charge of the prisons that New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof has accused of carrying out the strategic sexual assault of Palestinian detainees. Israel, however outraged, will not end up suing the publication, Horovitz assesses, explaining why. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates. For further reading: With Trump conflicted and Iran emboldened, vital bid to end regime’s nuclear drive is being botched Trump’s emerging Iran deal forces Israel to seek guarantees, not victory Netanyahu needs to fire Ben Gvir after his flotilla provocation, but of course he won’t Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of violence against civilians during the October 7 attacks (33:49 - 34:35). Listener discretion is advised. In this latest episode of the More From Sam series, Sam and Jaron talk about current events. They discuss the Trump administration's bungled Iran campaign, the information war surrounding Gaza and October 7, Nicholas Kristof's disputed New York Times report on Israeli prisoner abuse, Sam's controversial take on AI-generated music, Claude solving a decades-old math problem, the ethics of concealing GLP-1 use, and other topics.  

“We're anti-rape. The horrific abuse inflicted on Israeli women on Oct. 7 now happens to Palestinians day after day after day,” says Nicholas Kristof, an opinion writer with The New York Times. This month, Kristof published a piece titled “The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians,” where he alleges that the Israeli military used dogs to rape inmates. That is the biggest blood libel and slur against the Jewish people that I've ever heard. And yet, The New York Times, which always brags about fact-checking, didn't fact-check it at all, Victor Davis Hanson argues on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Israel is no stranger to self-examination. In 1948, Ben-Gurion distributed a poem accusing Israeli soldiers of murder. In 1982, hundreds of thousands demanded accountability after Sabra and Shatila. In 2016, the IDF convicted Elor Azaria. But in a post-October 7 world of delegitimization and libels leveled at the Jewish state, that tradition is under strain. Noam unpacks the controversy around Nicholas Kristof's New York Times column, explores Israel's long, remarkable history of holding itself morally accountable, and examines why, in the face of fierce global condemnation, the country has suddenly become ultra-defensive. This episode is dedicated in memory of Armand Lindenbaum, the grandson of Rav Avigdor Amiel, by his wife, Jean, and children, Felice, Amiel, and Ariel Lindenbaum-Sebag.

Award-winning journalist and Zionist Yardena Schwartz returns to Grace for Impact to cut through the noise on two competing narratives: Nicholas Kristof's largely unsubstantiated NYT op-ed alleging systematic Israeli prisoner abuse of Palestinians, and the just-released 300-page Civil Commission report documenting Hamas's fully substantiated crimes against women and children on October 7th. She also makes a compelling case for why West Bank annexation would be, in her own words, the unraveling of the Jewish state.For more, you can follow the show on Instagram @GraceforimpactpodcastProduced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.

Biotech entrepreneur and producer of The Voice of Hind Rajab, Rami Elghandour, was scheduled to speak at his alma mater, Rutgers University, but two weeks before graduation his appearance was canceled -- apparently due to complaints from a small number of students on campus. Though never given a clear explanation, some have pointed to Israel-critical social media posts relating to Nicholas Kristof's viral op-ed about IDF rape culture as the reason. In other words, he was targeted for anti-Zionist speech. Rami joins Bad Faith to discuss what happened, the fall out from the Kristof piece, and the future of the party politics post-Gaza.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US reporter Luke Tress joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Following Thursday's demonstration at The New York Times building regarding the Nicholas Kristof column about alleged systematic sexual abuse of Palestinian inmates in Israel, Tress notes that protestors discussed concerns about slanted coverage that can instigate violence against Jews or Israel-related targets. As New York's New School student government tries to defund its local Hillel chapter, accusing it of violent international crimes following recent student trips to Israel, Tress discusses the dispute and the trend toward colleges attempting to exclude chapters of the international Jewish student organization. An anti-Israel protest held in Midwood, a predominantly Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn, showed the ability to get more personal and ugly than those held at public spaces, reports Tress. The presence of swastika graffiti has become more prevalent around New York City, notes Tress, and comes from both the far left, who want to demonize Israel and from far-right pro-Nazi movements.

As criticism of Israel mounts over its wars on Gaza, Lebanon and Iran, along with the escalating settler violence in the occupied West Bank, the country is ramping up its PR offensive. From a carefully managed appearance of Benjamin Netanyahu on CBS's 60 Minutes to a major expansion of Israel's Hasbara operation, the push includes pouring money into digital campaigns and media messaging. The goal is to reverse the collapse of public support for Israel, especially in the US, but no amount of spin can make audiences unsee what they have watched in real time. Contributors: Miriyam Aouragh - Professor of digital anthropology, University of Westminster Matt Lieb - Host, Bad Hasbara podcast Emily Schrader - Journalist, ILTV News Oren Ziv - Reporter, Local Call On our radar Israeli officials have dismissed a recent New York Times report on sexual violence against Palestinians as “blood libel”. But while the government denounces the allegations, many of the claims in the report have been openly discussed in the Israeli media. Nicholas Muirhead reports.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. The New York Times printed a bombshell accusation against Israel this week. An op-ed by columnist Nicholas Kristof alleged widespread sexual abuse and rape against Palestinian prisoners. The column alleged “a pattern of widespread Israeli sexual violence against men, women and even children — by soldiers, settlers, interrogators in the Shin Bet internal security agency and, above all, prison guards.” Palestinians quoted in the piece said they’d even been mounted and raped by specially trained dogs. Israel called the article “one of the most hideous and distorted lies ever published against the State of Israel," and promised to sue the NYT. Some of the more extreme claims seem highly unlikely, to say the least, but could a group of guards -- or a prison commander -- be abusing prisoners in violation of the law? Israel's Prison Service is not a well-understood security organization, as bodies like the IDF, the Shin Bet, Mossad, and police garner far more attention. But IPS holds thousands of hardened terrorists from groups like Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and is an important part of the fight against those organizations. To better understand the IPS, its oversight, and how prisoners are treated, we speak to Col. Dakar Eilat, who ran two prisons in Israel. He explains the changes in the prison service's approach to terrorist prisoners that took place two decades ago, removing their ability to order terror attacks from inside prison, and then again after the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attacks. There is no question that after October 7, conditions for terrorists have been reduced to the minimum required by law, he says. But guards can't do whatever they want. Everything that happens in prison is recorded by cameras, says Eilat, with footage then sent to prison service headquarters. Eilat shares some of his personal experiences as a prison commander and the use of force. He says that one of his predecessors had been caught using illegal force on prisoners, and the prison commissioner brought him in to end the phenomenon. That doesn't mean that prisoners were treated lightly. There were strip searches of prisoners, and if they resist with force, "they will be met with force," says Eilat. Still, there are multiple oversight mechanisms, he says. Some 130 organizations -- both Israeli and international -- carry out inspections and oversight of prisons, and during some weeks, he had 5 snap inspections of his prisons. As for the NYT allegations, he calls them "bullsh*t". He says that -- beyond the cameras -- doctors in prisons have an independent chain of command and reporting mechanism, and they would catch signs of abuse. Dog training is overseen by animal rights groups, and official investigations of the prison service are carried out by the Justice Ministry and the police. Covering up systematic abuse like that described in the Kristof piece would take hundreds of conspirators, says Eilat. Lazar Focus can be found on all podcast platforms.

Subscribe to Inside Call me Back. ____ Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Content warning: This episode includes discussion of sexual violence How do unverified claims become a New York Times column? On Monday, the New York Times published an opinion column by Nicholas Kristof titled "The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians" — an explicit attempt to draw a moral equivalence between Hamas and Israel by alleging that both equally engage in systematic sexual violence. The piece, based on interviews with 14 unnamed Palestinians, cited a Geneva-based NGO calling Israeli sexual abuse a "standard operating procedure" and described, among other things, trained dogs used to sexually assault prisoners. Kristof quoted former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert appearing to validate the charges - but Olmert subsequently issued a statement clarifying that he did not, in fact, confirm the column's most serious claims, including that Israeli authorities directed the rape of children or that systematic sexual torture is state policy. The morning after Kristof's column appeared, an Israeli civil commission released a 300-page report - built on more than 10,000 photographs, thousands of hours of video, and over 400 testimonies - concluding that Hamas's sexual violence on October 7th was systematic, widespread, and deliberate. The New York Times, which had been told the report was coming months in advance, published it nearly 24 hours after running Kristof's op-ed.  Reporters who spent the day going through Kristof's column claim by claim found it largely unverifiable - no dates, no locations, no names - recycled from dubious sources and in many cases almost certainly false. The deeper question this episode asks is not simply whether the column is fair, but how something like it gets published in the paper of record at all: what is the pipeline, from NGO to press release to Pulitzer Prize winner's byline, that turns unverified claims into fact? And why does that pipeline flow so reliably in one direction?  To answer that, Dan is joined by Matti Friedman, a former AP reporter and editor in Jerusalem, and author of the 2014 Atlantic essay "What the Media Gets Wrong About Israel" - who has spent years documenting the specific mechanisms by which NGOs hostile to Israel have shaped, and in some cases dictated, Western coverage of this conflict. In this episode: - What Kristof's column alleged - Which claims are documented, unverifiable, or implausible - How NGO claims become mainstream coverage - Euro-Med, activist sourcing, and the New York Times - Matti Friedman's warning about Western media - The October 7th sexual violence report and the timing problem - The moral equivalence at the heart of the piece - The cost to Israel  This episode was sponsored by Birthright: Invest in the Jewish future today at onetripchangeseverything.com.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition on Wednesday submitted a bill to dissolve the Knesset and trigger elections, as the government competed with the opposition to control the process of disbanding parliament and determining when voters will go to the ballot box. The bill did not specify an election date. Horovitz weighs in on the complexities and delves into the timing of the upcoming elections. Netanyahu announced yesterday that he had made a secretive visit to the United Arab Emirates and met with its leader, President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, during the US-Israeli war with Iran earlier this year. For its part, the UAE has strongly denied that this visit took place. What's happening here? The Board of Peace’s Gaza envoy Nickolay Mladenov said at a briefing with foreign reporters in Jerusalem yesterday that Hamas is consolidating its power in the Strip, while dragging its feet in agreeing to a US-backed framework for handing over its weapons that has led to the stalling of plans to rebuild the war-damaged enclave. Horovitz explores these harsh truths. The New York Times published an opinion piece that alleged widespread rape of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails, including by dogs. Backlash, calling the entire article a "blood libel," has noted that Nicholas Kristof's article relied on sources that have alleged ties to the Hamas terror group or have praised it. Horovitz discusses the multi-layered issues surrounding this oped and how The Times of Israel has covered the allegations in it. To close out the program, we hear about The Times of Israel's policy on labeling the territories occupied by Israel since 1967 as the "West Bank," versus Judea and Samaria. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates. For further reading: Bring it on?

Peter Savodnik joins us to talk about Nicholas Kristof's column alleging abuse of Palestinian prisoners, including the most extreme dog-rape allegation, and how pro-Israel people should respond when the reporting is weak but the underlying issue may still deserve investigation. We talk about the difference between bad journalism and false accusations, the danger of reflexively circling the wagons, Ben-Gvir and the Israeli prison system, antisemitism, double standards against Israel, whether Jews are being pushed back into history, JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Gavin Newsom, Jonathan Haidt, Twitter addiction, and the general collapse of everyone's sanity online. Peter Savodnik reported for The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, The Guardian, GQ, Wired and other venues from the former Soviet Union, the Middle East, Asia and across the United States. His book, The Interloper: Lee Harvey Oswald Inside the Soviet Union, was published in 2013 by Basic Books.

Submit media fails you see, and get facts, links, images and more at TheyStandCorrected.substack.com. Celebrate and support the fight for truth by becoming a Founding Member. A new bill of global importance has become a law. It could set a template for the entire country. Around the world, anti-democratic nations are watching this, because they know it’s a strike against one of their big goals: influencing the minds of American children. Today, Josh is joined by a woman who led the effort to expose foreign influence over what's taught in U.S. schools. Inspired by proof of Qatar's propaganda efforts, State Rep. Esther Panitch, a Georgia Democrat, spearheaded legislation to make her state the first to require a new kind of reporting. When she drew attention to the issue, the top Qatari officials in the United States went after her publicly — and then also went after another Jewish woman, saying they were doing “what people like you always do.”  Also, a new report is out, detailing horrific sexual violence carried out by Gazan terrorists. Even CNN took a break from parroting Hamas talking points to report on it. But the New York Times apparently turned down a chance to report on it in advance. Worse, the paper tried to get out ahead of it by running a propaganda-filled opinion piece from Nicholas Kristof.  Josh takes us through Kristof's history of getting big things wrong, including in a failed run for governor of Oregon. “A guy who doesn’t look for facts and then tries so hard to deny them — this is who the Times entrusts to run with the most incendiary allegations you can make against Israel,” Josh explains.

Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev—both former advisers in the Prime Minister's Office—pull no punches in this episode, accusing The New York Times and columnist Nicholas Kristof of pushing what they describe as grotesque anti-Israel propaganda just as a devastating new report on Hamas's October 7 atrocities was released. They argue that while Israel tried to shield victims' families from horrific footage, Hamas openly celebrated and filmed its crimes, yet much of the Western media, chose to focus instead on sensational accusations against Israel. Hear why the hosts believe the media failed morally after October 7, the nature of antisemitism and why they see the battle over public opinion as just as important as the war itself.

Today's topics are: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:16 Islam's sado-sexual culture ·      10:52 How America is doing in Iran and China ·      21:47 The reasonable reason for halting redistricting in South Carolina ·      26:43 A society cannot be structured around damaged people First, I examine the dueling reports about the unspeakable crimes Arabs committed against Jews on October 11 and Nicholas Kristof's blood libel about raped Arabs in Israeli prisons. I'll explain exactly why the former reports are manifestly true and the latter obscenely false. Second, I look at how we're doing vis-à-vis Iran and China. Maybe I'm a cockeyed optimist, but I think all is well under Trump's management. Third, before people get their knickers in a twist about the fact that the South Carolina legislature is dragging its heels on redistricting, there's reasonable thinking going on there. Fourth, and last, based on people I know and know of, a reminder that a society cannot organize itself around its most damaged members, no matter how sad their lives are.

Novantatré voti su novantatré. Lunedì 11 maggio la Knesset ha approvato un tribunale speciale autorizzato a comminare la pena di morte ai palestinesi condannati per l'attacco del 7 ottobre 2023. Lo riporta l'Associated Press. I processi saranno trasmessi in diretta. Il paragone con il processo del 1962 al criminale nazista Adolf Eichmann lo fanno gli stessi proponenti. Tre organizzazioni israeliane per i diritti umani — il Centro per la difesa dell'individuo, il Centro legale Adalah e il Comitato pubblico contro la tortura — in una nota dell'11 maggio definiscono la legge «uno spettacolo punitivo e retributivo» che subordina «ogni principio di giustizia penale equa». Le sentenze potranno essere pronunciate a maggioranza. Lo stesso giorno il New York Times pubblica l'inchiesta di Nicholas Kristof, "The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians": quattordici testimoni descrivono stupri e abusi sessuali sistemici nelle carceri israeliane. Tre di loro minorenni. Risposta del ministero degli Esteri israeliano: «calunnia del sangue». Secondo il Comitato pubblico contro la tortura, Israele detiene oggi 1.300 palestinesi di Gaza senza accusa formale. La rima Eichmann vale per ciò che la legge mostra. Ciò che la legge non mostra resta fuori inquadratura: i detenuti senza accusa, le testimonianze di Kristof, le condizioni del dottor Hussam Abu Safiya, direttore dell'ospedale Kamal Adwan, detenuto dal 27 dicembre 2024 e descritto «quasi irriconoscibile» da tre prigionieri rilasciati. A Marmaris cinquantasette imbarcazioni della Global Sumud Flotilla si sono riunite l'11 maggio in assemblea per decidere se ripartire. Saif Abukeshek e Thiago Ávila, liberati dopo dieci giorni di detenzione, ricordano che restano dentro 9.500 palestinesi. Nessuno di loro avrà un processo in diretta. A Marmaris la Global Sumud Flotilla ha chiuso ieri l'assemblea internazionale; Saif Abukeshek e Thiago Ávila, espulsi domenica da Israele come «provocatori professionisti», sono il primo fronte. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Who we are, what we value, how we speak, how we spend, how we love, how we forgive, and how we show up—or fail to show up—does not stop with us. Every life has an outflow. You want the world—or at least your family and friends—to be better because you are here. You want the outflow of your life to bless others' lives. Things like intentional love, sacrificial generosity, wise stewardship, and faithful service send hope, stability, and blessing downstream. They send evidence that another way of living is possible. A decade ago, Nicholas Kristof wrote, “The people I've encountered over the years in the most impossible places—like Nuba, where anyone reasonable has fled—are disproportionately unreasonable because of their faith.” Faith—and specifically faith in Christ—does something to a person. Alongside the moral clarity and motivation faith provides, the apostle Paul believed faith in Christ actually, fundamentally changes a person. In this sermon, we explore how faith can change a person and change a life.

Not only is the new hardline regime in Tehran now more likely to go rogue as a nuclear power a la North Korea, ordinary Iranians—who Trump and Bibi initially claimed we were rescuing—are also living under even harsher conditions. At the same time, the war has burned through billions worth of our critical weapons stockpile, a development that surely will figure into China's calculations vis‐à‐vis Taiwan. This is the moment for Dems to reshape their brand and win back everyday working Americans. Plus, the settlers' escalating attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank, the Trump administration's depraved treatment of Afghan refugees, any talk of aid for UAE stinks of Trump family corruption, and Dems need to fix their blue places while simultaneously working to win voters in the red ones.show notes Nick's nonprofit, Kristof Impact Nick's NYT column page Helen Keller International Kristof Farms Tim's playlist Tickets for our Bulwark Live shows in San Diego and LA in May: TheBulwark.com/EventsExclusive $25-off Carver Mat athttps://on.auraframes.com/BULWARK.

To remind us what has to heal to put MAGA behind us, here's my 2020 conversation with Pulitzer Prize winning husband-wife team, NICHOLAS KRISTOF & SHERYL WuDUNN. Their book, TIGHTROPE, tells how Nick's childhood home - Yamhill, Oregon - was devastated by the loss of well-paying jobs and policy failures in education, healthcare, and justice that led to his childhood friends' deaths of despair - and how we can end this crisis. We recorded this episode in the final year of Trump's first term, a few weeks before the pandemic exploded.

Nicholas Kristof is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and longtime New York Times columnist whose reporting has taken him from the Tiananmen Square massacre to the brothels of Cambodia and the opioid-ravaged communities of his own hometown in Oregon. In this conversation, Amanda and Nick explore how witnessing atrocities shaped his belief that individual acts of courage can stand against overwhelming darkness. They also discuss why understanding people we fear or condemn is essential for solving real problems, how hope collapses and regenerates in communities from Darfur to Yamhill, and why personal resilience often begins with the simple fact of being loved.

The current interruption in SNAP benefits are disproportionately impacting the indigenous people of the United States. In this reprised episode of APS, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nicholas Kristof and Johns Hopkins Center for American Indian Health Director Allison Barlow talk about poverty, education and the struggle for social justice in Native American communities. “The Bureau of Indian Education schools only have a 53% high school graduation rate! We are failing them way before they fail us,” suggests Kristof. “We as a country have had this narrative that when people struggle, it's because of a lack of personal responsibility and bad choices... It's because we as a society are making bad choices about healthcare, education and jobs."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donated drugs for parasitic infections remain undistributed and are nearing their expiration dates. American-purchased ambulances sit idle because they have no gas.
