This week we're kicking off The Dumpster Fire Corner, a quick way to discuss the latest news in our messed up world. Trump is back on his Greenland nonsense: floating taking it by force, firing off a letter to Norway's PM about not caring about peace anymore (sir, Norway doesn't hand out the Nobel), and tanking global markets because he will not log off. Public support is in the gutter, allies are understandably nervous, and experts warn that invading Greenland would effectively nuke NATO. Meanwhile, a German study confirms what we've all been saying: 96% of U.S. tariffs are paid by Americans, not foreign exporters, because of course they are. Then we unpack the rise of the “2016 Trend," and why everyone's suddenly sharing photos from ten years ago. Then Pam breaks down what might be the first meme of 2026: not explaining yourself. From a viral TikTok comment about “365 buttons” to the broader rise of vagueposting, we ask whether this is chaotic nonsense, elite gatekeeping, or actually the perfect mantra for the year ahead. And yes, we absolutely speculate on what Tamara did with those buttons. This week's recommendations: Andrew shouts out a Stanley Steamer deep clean, Laura recommends The Pitt on HBO Max, and Pam loves HBO Max's Like Water for Chocolate. And in this week's installment of After Dark:  We're reflecting on 11 years of this show, past oversharing, former partners in old content, aging out of wild anecdotes, and what we'd do differently (or never change).

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump sent an unusual text to the prime minister of Norway. The two leaders had been messaging about Greenland – specifically, Trump's threats to impose tariffs on European countries opposed to the United States taking over the autonomous Danish territory. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said in a statement that he had been trying to de-escalate the situation. President Trump responded by linking his insistence on taking over Greenland to his grievance over not receiving the Nobel Peace Prize – bestowed yearly by the Nobel Committee in Norway. Today on “Post Reports,” London bureau chief Steve Hendrix joins host Martine Powers with the latest on Trump's bid for Greenland, how it all comes back to his perceived Peace Prize snub, and how his obsession is starting to have a real impact on geopolitics. Today's show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Dennis Funk and mixed by Sean Carter. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

Today's Headlines: Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado visited the White House and handed Donald Trump a symbolic Nobel Peace Prize — only to walk away with Trump merch, zero U.S. backing, and confirmation that the administration will continue supporting remnants of the Maduro regime. The Nobel Foundation quickly clarified that Nobel Prizes can't be transferred, even symbolically. Trump then escalated his Greenland fixation, announcing new tariffs on European countries that don't support a U.S. takeover and threatening steeper penalties by summer. He later claimed Norway owed him a Nobel Prize and suggested U.S. control of Greenland is essential for global security, prompting Canada to warn that any U.S. military action would trigger NATO obligations. Meanwhile, Canada and the EU are rapidly reshuffling trade alliances away from the U.S. This week, former DOJ special counsel Jack Smith will testify to Congress as Trump heads to Davos to unveil his self-appointed “Board of Peace,” tasked with overseeing Gaza's future. Trump plans to chair the board, charge countries $1 billion to participate, and has invited members ranging from U.S. allies to Russia and Belarus. In Iran, mass protests continue amid a near-total internet blackout, with reports estimating more than 13,000 deaths in recent days. Iranian state TV was briefly hacked to air messages urging revolt, while the FAA warned airlines to prepare for possible military activity affecting flights across parts of Latin America and the Pacific. Back in the U.S., Trump declined — for now — to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota, while placing 1,500 troops on standby and opening investigations into Minnesota's governor and Minneapolis's mayor. He also floated plans to sue JPMorgan Chase over alleged political “debanking.” Finally, Virginia lawmakers moved to redraw congressional maps ahead of the midterms, opening yet another front in the rapidly escalating gerrymandering wars.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, they dissect EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin's answer to a reporter struggling with simple economics, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison arguing that a federal law against disrupting religious freedom at a place of worship does not apply to what happened on Sunday, and President Trump's very odd tactics in trying to acquire Greenland.First, they applaud Zeldin for keeping a straight face and giving a very clear explanation when a reporter asked how making American vehicles more affordable would be good for American auto workers. It's also a good reminder that far fewer people than we realize are taught the fundamentals of how an economy works.Next, they groan as Attorney General Ellison says the FACE Act only applies to restricting demonstrations outside abortion facilities and not disrupting worship services. But the law in question specifically outlaws what happened on Sunday. So is Ellison clueless or just not interested in prosecuting the criminal acts of his political allies?Finally, they react to President Trump demanding control of Greenland and telling Norway's prime minister that missing out on the Nobel Peace Prize pushed him toward a more aggressive approach in dealing with Denmark. But is this strategy accomplishing anything, or is it just antagonizing other members of NATO?Please visit our great sponsors:Protect your family with Ethos Life Insurance — get your quote in minutes at https://Ethos.com/3MLUpgrade your wardrobe with Mizzen & Main — get 20% off your first purchase at https://MizzenandMain.com with promo code 3ML20. Protect your future with Noble Gold Investments — visit https://NobleGoldInvestments.com/3ML to download your free Gold & Silver Guide and learn how to build lasting financial security. Stay consistent with your skincare and save 15% with OneSkin — use code 3ML at https://Oneskin.co/3ML and let them know we sent you!New episodes every weekday. 

For this episode, Robin examines the fundamental differences between liberalism and progressivism and why understanding this divide is critical for 2028.Key topics include: Why Republicans fall in line while Democrats fracture over purity tests, the data showing disruptive protest tactics reduce public support by 15%, and how protest votes intended to help Gaza enabled Trump's return and Gaza's devastation. With 31 Nobel laureates warning about fascism, Yale historians fleeing to Canada, and a Democracy Index rating the U.S. at 55/100 (authoritarian territory), ideological purity has become dangerous. With democracy itself at stake, coalition building must supersede purity politics.In this episode, Robin argues that while liberals and progressives share end goals, such as universal healthcare, climate action, workers' rights, racial justice...their strategic disagreements determine electoral outcomes. Compromise isn't betrayal; it's how democracy functions.Keywords: liberal vs progressive, democratic party divide, why democrats lose elections, electoral strategy 2028, progressive purity politics, coalition building, capitalism vs socialism, free speech vs cancel culture, identity politics, incrementalism vs revolution, protest tactics effectiveness, political compromise, Gaza protest votes, Republican electoral strategy, swing state politics, moderate vs progressive, political pragmatism, deplatforming debate, working class voters, political podcast, 2028 election analysis, authoritarianism warning, voting strategy, ideological purity critiqueSources: Pew Research (2021), Ruy Teixeira/The Liberal Patriot, Matthew Yglesias/The Atlantic, Ezra Klein/NYT, Democracy Index 2025, 31 Nobel Laureates fascism letterBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-crime-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

As world leaders prepare to meet in Davos for an economic conference, many are mulling how to respond to President Trump's suggestion that the US claim Greenland. On Today's Show:Matt Steinglass, Europe editor at The Economist, explains the recent news in President Donald Trump's remarks on acquiring Greenland, including that the U.S. will impose tariffs on eight European countries until the U.S. acquires the country, and Europe's response. 

Jared Yates Sexton is on the road without the studio setup, but he and Nick Hauselman still sound sharper than the people allegedly running the country. Nick reads a wildly unhinged letter Trump reportedly sent to Norway, a Nobel Peace Prize grievance tour that somehow swerves into Denmark, Greenland, and demands for “complete and total control.” From there, they dig into what it means when the U.S. starts treating allies like enemies, using tariffs like a cudgel, and drifting toward a real crisis over Greenland. They talk intelligence sharing, Five Eyes, why allies would start going dark, and how all of it connects back to the domestic crackdown, Minnesota, and the surveillance state getting upgraded right in front of everyone.

Donald Trump's claim that Norway controls the Nobel Peace Prize isn't just sour grapes — it's a tell. In this video, we break down how Trump's Nobel obsession exposes a worldview where every institution is corrupt, every alliance is transactional, and diplomacy is replaced by tariffs and threats. From his push to seize Greenland and bully NATO allies, to his deal-first approach to healthcare and Gaza, to his attacks on Europe that conveniently serve Russian interests, this is the presidency run like a hostile real estate takeover. If everything looks like a shakedown, it's because Trump thinks that's how power works. Independent media has never been more important.

When Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado gave her Nobel "Peace" Prize to warmonger Donald Trump to thank him for bombing her country, it showed how the prize is a tool of war that serves Western foreign policy interests.

The president's demented rant that the United States has to take Greenland because the Nobel committee has not awarded him his much coveted peace prize is farcical and embarrassing—we are in 25th Amendment territory. At the same time, Trump's alternate claim that conquering the island is about being tough on Russia is so phony since he's busy trying to help give Ukraine to Putin. Meanwhile, ICE agents' constant videotaping of members of the public may be tied to their use of facial recognition software.

In this explosive episode, Charlie and I react to President Trump's stunning message to Norway's Prime Minister: because Norway “decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 wars,” he no longer feels “an obligation to think purely of Peace” — and now demands “Complete and Total Control of Greenland” from Denmark.From petty whining about the Nobel snub to threatening 10% tariffs (rising to 25%) on eight European allies (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, Netherlands, Finland, UK) unless they hand over Greenland — this is peak Trump chaos.We also discuss:-- Trump's childish, un-American pettiness-- Parallels to appeasement and loss of U.S. moral authority-- Hypotheticals: What if Trump actually invades Greenland?-- Domestic fallout: Minnesota ICE brutality, Insurrection Act threats, and normalizing cruelty-- Why appeasing authoritarians (at home or abroad) never works-- And MUCH more!Is America becoming the “ugly American”?

This week: NATO threats, depression-era meals, and a timeline of authoritarianism that reads like dystopian fiction...except it's all real.Robin breaks down Trump's Greenland obsession and the threat of military action against our own NATO allies.

Six federal prosecutors have resigned in protest.Also covered: Trump "joking" about canceling elections, the Department of Labor posting Nazi-adjacent slogans, the Insurrection Act being threatened against American protesters, a death in ICE custody ruled likely homicide, and why 31 Nobel laureates just warned that "the signs of fascism are here."Plus: why three Yale historians who study fascism for a living just moved to Canada, and what it means when a new Democracy Index says we've "slid well into authoritarianism."Keywords/TagsTrump Greenland invasion, NATO tariffs 2026, Brooke Rollins $3 meal, grocery prices inflation, Minneapolis ICE raids, Renée Nicole Good shooting, ICE killings, Tim Walz DOJ investigation, authoritarianism America, fascism warning, immigration enforcement 2026, federal prosecutor resignations, Insurrection Act, political podcast, progressive politics, Trump administration, civil rights violations, police accountability, democracy crisis, political analysisTimestamps00:00 - Intro: The Golden Age05:30 - Segment 1: Greenland Imperialism & NATO Threats18:45 - Segment 2: Let Them Eat One Piece of Broccoli28:20 - Segment 3: Minneapolis Under Siege42:10 - Segment 4: Renée Nicole Good (Content Warning)58:35 - Segment 5: Top 10 Signs of Fascism This Week1:14:20 - Closing ThoughtsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-crime-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

The podcast examines Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado's decision to publicly praise and symbolically offer Donald Trump a Nobel Peace Prize, arguing it was a strategic miscalculation. The hosts explain that Machado believed flattering Trump — who has long sought Nobel recognition — would secure his backing to help remove Nicolás Maduro and support her path to Venezuela's presidency. Instead, the episode argues Trump used the gesture for personal validation and media attention, with no intention of making a serious political investment in Machado or Venezuela's democratic transition. Analysts on the show note that Trump's foreign policy decisions are driven by domestic optics and leverage, not loyalty, and that he has shown little follow-through when praise doesn't directly benefit him. The conclusion: Machado overestimated Trump's willingness to help and underestimated how transactional the relationship would be, leaving her with symbolic exposure but no concrete U.S. support — and reinforcing the risk of tying a democratic movement to a figure focused primarily on himself.

From the heavy-handed ICE “invasion” of Minneapolis, where thousands of federal agents' enforcement surge has sparked protests after the shootings and the unnecessary death of Renee Nicole Good. We unpack the video evidence, no hearings, and public outrage over federal power in local streets.

Maria Corina Machado says she presented Trump with her Nobel peace prize medal; ME braces for ICE crackdown as Trump threatens Insurrection Act; Calls grow for oversight amid MS prison deaths; AI innovation causes inequity concerns for Black IL residents.

On today's podcast:1) President Trump accepted Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado’s Nobel Peace Prize medal at a White House meeting on Thursday as she tries to get back in his good graces while the future of her country is being shaped by the US. Trump, in a social media post hours later, called it a “great honor” to meet Machado, and described her as a “wonderful woman who has been through so much.” Machado, who has been shut out of Venezuela’s leadership transition since US forces ousted President Nicolas Maduro on Jan. 3, said she gave Trump the medal as “a recognition of his unique commitment with our freedom.” 2) Denmark and Greenland are stepping up lobbying of US lawmakers in an effort to head off President Trump’s push to take control of Greenland. A group of US senators is set to meet members of the Danish parliament in Copenhagen on Friday. The trip follows a week of meetings in Washington by Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen with members of Congress on the heels of talks with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Greenland’s foreign minister, Vivian Motzfeldt, also participated. High-level talks between Denmark, Greenland and the US earlier this week ended in a stalemate over the future of the world’s largest island, though officials agreed to set up a working group to manage the diplomatic dispute. Trump has repeatedly insisted the US needs to control the territory, an ambition that remains unresolved and has been rejected time and again by both Copenhagen and Nuuk.3) President Trump threatened to deploy US military forces to Minnesota in order to quell protests in response to violent encounters involving federal immigration agents. The 1807 law allows the president to use regular military troops on US soil for domestic law enforcement. It was last invoked during the 1992 riots in Los Angeles. Trump’s ultimatum could further fray tensions in Minneapolis, where on Wednesday a federal officer shot a man in the leg. The incident occurred one week after the fatal shooting of a local woman who was a US citizen by an ICE agent, which touched off the demonstrations.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta quinta-feira (15): O presidente dos Estados Unidos Donald Trump afirmou nesta quarta-feira (14) que a Casa Branca foi informada que as execuções no Irã foram interrompidas.

Financial crises are "everywhere and always" a problem of short-term debt. In this Extra Slice of The Pie, Nobel laureate Douglas Diamond explains his groundbreaking research on why banks exist in the first place, and why they're vulnerable to runs. Diamond discusses his role advising policymakers during the 2008 crisis, reflects on predicting the savings and loan disaster as a graduate student in the 1970s, and explains why the 30-year mortgage is like Michael Corleone: something good that went bad when it hung around with the wrong crowd.

Jeffrey Epstein's infiltration of academia exposed how wealth can override ethics in even the most prestigious institutions. Despite having no advanced degree or scholarly credentials, he gained access to Harvard, MIT, Princeton, and Stanford through millions in donations and by courting high-profile scientists. Epstein was granted office space, access to labs, and close ties with prominent academics, even after his 2008 sex-offense conviction. Universities rationalized these relationships by claiming his money advanced research, but in reality, they allowed him to launder his reputation and embed himself in intellectual circles. By hosting Nobel laureates at his salons and funding programs tied to genetics and transhumanism, he created the illusion of being a serious patron of science while exploiting academia's hunger for funding and prestige.The fallout from Epstein's exposure in 2019 forced institutions to reckon with their complicity. Harvard and MIT conducted reviews, issued apologies, and pledged reforms, but these actions were reactive, driven by media scrutiny and public outrage rather than institutional integrity. The scandal revealed systemic flaws: academia's dependence on philanthropy, its willingness to overlook reputational risks for financial gain, and its blindness in conflating brilliance with morality. Epstein's case stands as a warning that if universities continue to treat ethics as negotiable in exchange for donations, they risk corrupting the very integrity of knowledge. His presence in academia was not an anomaly but a symptom of a larger vulnerability—one that remains unresolved and open to exploitation by the next figure who learns to wield money as a key to intellectual legitimacy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

C dans l'air l'invitée du 12 janvier 2026 avec Chirinne Ardakani, avocate franco-iranienne, militante pour les droits humains, et présidente de l'association Iran Justice. Elle défend notamment la prix Nobel de la Paix Narges Mohammadi, actuellement emprisonnée.Ce lundi, des milliers d'Iraniens ont envahi une grande place du centre de Téhéran pour marquer leur soutien à la République islamique et rendre hommage aux membres des forces de sécurité morts durant des manifestations contre le pouvoir, selon les images diffusées par la télévision d'Etat. Ces Iraniens se sont réunis à la demande du pouvoir iranien, qui a perpétré un "massacre", selon un groupe de défense des droits humains, pour réprimer le mouvement de contestation dans le pays. L'ONG Iran Human Rights (IHR), basée en Norvège, a déclaré dimanche avoir confirmé la mort d'au moins 192 manifestants, mais averti que le nombre réel de victimes pourrait être beaucoup plus élevé. "Des informations non vérifiées indiquent qu'au moins plusieurs centaines, voire plus de 2.000 personnes selon certaines sources, auraient été tuées", a-t-elle souligné, dénonçant un "massacre" et un "crime (...) majeur contre le peuple iranien".D'une ampleur inédite depuis trois ans, le mouvement pose à la République islamique, proclamée en 1979, l'un de ses plus grands défis. Déclenché à Téhéran le 28 décembre par des commerçants protestant contre la cherté de la vie, il a gagné de nombreuses autres villes. Les autorités ont imposé une coupure d'internet, désormais en vigueur depuis plus de 72 heures, selon l'ONG de surveillance de la cybersécurité Netblocks. Le secrétaire général de l'ONU Antonio Guterres, a appelé les autorités à "la plus grande retenue" dans l'usage de la force et à rétablir les communications.Hier, le président américain Donald Trump a déclaré dimanche que les dirigeants iraniens avaient appelé pour "négocier" après ses menaces d'opération militaire en cas de violences contre les manifestants. On apprend aujourd'hui qu'un canal de communication est "ouvert" entre l'Iran et l'émissaire américain pour le Moyen-Orient malgré d'absence de relations diplomatiques entre les deux pays ennemis, a déclaré lundi le ministère iranien des Affaires étrangères.

On today's episode, we discuss Delta Force's pinpoint raid that rescued U.S. hostages, and how Trump's willingness to use elite special forces and high‑tech weapons is reshaping expectations for presidential “strength.” Glenn and James then turn to Trump's long‑running fascination with buying Greenland, arguing that what sounded like a joke in 2017 now looks like a shrewd play for strategic bases and mineral wealth as the Arctic opens. From there, they dive back into the Minnesota–Somali welfare fraud scandal and the broader NGO “BLOB,” claiming that taxpayer‑funded grants, paid protesters, and weak deportation enforcement have effectively turned parts of Minnesota into a soft failed state. Finally, they examine how Trump is handling post‑Maduro Venezuela, including his decision not to “Iraq‑style” purge existing institutions or immediately install the opposition Nobel winner, and what that reveals about lessons learned from past regime‑change disasters.
