There is a long history of industry heavy war profiteers like Lockheed Martin and Northrup Grumman having deep ties within elite political and military circles. This has led to trillions being spent on weapons manufacturing. With the rise of Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence (AI) in our society, we're seeing those same elites build out AI for military and geopolitical purposes. In our latest, we talk with Project Censored and award-winning investigative journalist Peter Byrne about his groundbreaking 10-part exposé on the dangerous militarization of artificial intelligence—and the profiteering that drives it. Bio//Peter Byrne is an award-winning investigative science reporter who has long uncovered corruption at the nexus of science and industry.

NASA is planning to decommission the International Space Station by the end of 2030. The ISS, which began operations in 2000, is reaching the end of its lifespan and has become costly to maintain. NASA selected SpaceX to construct a vehicle that would “de-orbit” the football field-sized station, pushing it down into the atmosphere where it'll burn up safely over the Pacific ocean.So what comes next? So far, NASA has awarded contracts to private companies including Axiom Space, Blue Origin, Northrup Grumman, and Starlab to support the research and development for commercial space stations which would help facilitate future research in orbit, among their own space tourism offerings. Next year, NASA will certify one or more of these companies to build at least one space station, where it'll then become one of many customers to purchase services from the new facilities.Loren Grush, space reporter at Bloomberg News, joins Host Ira Flatow to discuss who's in the running and how future space stations could differ from the one we know today. She also talks about her recent trip to the headquarters of Vast, one of the companies competing for this contract, to learn more about its cryptocurrency origins and its high-level recruitments from NASA and Apple.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Army Colonel Karl Nell (ret) shocked Wall Street with the news that UFOs / UAPs are here, and the government is covering it up. On #TGTS, we interview financial analyst David Dorr, featured on Bloomberg News and co-founder of the trading firm DAM. Dorr will discuss the potential for a stock market crash caused by the White House's revelation of non-human intelligence and how Wall Street should prepare for this coming news to prevent a market crash and global economic meltdown.Join us on The Good Trouble podcast for an exclusive, in-depth discussion with Wall Street expert David Dorr on the potential black swan economic event that could rock Wall Street and cause a stock market meltdown unless we prepare the markets. With the recent whistleblower revelations of David Grusch and the @isalt speech by Colonel Nell on the existence of aliens & extraterrestrials, we are offering unique insights into the financial and legal impact on defense contractors such as Lockheed Martin and Northrup Grumman. These companies are allegedly in possession of UFOs and UAPs as part of a government reverse-engineering program. We'll also explore the potential criminal liability of defense contractors @northropgrummanmedia and @LockheedMartin, who if in possession of alien craft, may have misrepresented company valuation to stockholders and engaged in possible whistleblower retaliation, which Boeing recently admitted to. This is a discussion that promises to be both enlightening and thought-provoking.The news of the existence of the UFO / UAP phenomenon and that aliens are visiting us have the potential to trigger a stock market crash on Wall Street and a worldwide financial meltdown. This is a topic that demands our attention and engagement. Unless market managers on Wall Street proactively plan for this event, the consequences could be severe. While The Pentagon and The CIA continue to hide this from the American people, the White House needs to face this head-on.Recorded June 28, 2024The Good Trouble Show: Linktree:  https://linktr.ee/thegoodtroubleshowPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheGoodTroubleShow YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheGoodTroubleShow Twitter / X: https://twitter.com/GoodTroubleShow Instagram: @goodtroubleshow TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@goodtroubleshow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Good-Trouble-Show-With-Matt-Ford-106009712211646Threads:  @TheGoodTroubleShowBlueSky: @TheGoodTroubleShowBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-good-trouble-show-with-matt-ford--5808897/support.

In this episode of his "Thinking Out Loud" series, Double D discusses the hollowing out the the United States Military Industrial Complex, as well as how the U.S. Military and its defense contractors are riddled by corruption.Opening the video, Double D touches on rising tensions between the United States, Russia, and China. He views these tensions through the lens of the new Cold War, and suggests that despite the U.S. potential for power projection around the world, industrial and systemic trends in the U.S. may show that U.S. military might is not as all-encompassing as may be believed.Double D reads excerpts from an article from "Foreign Affairs" which examines the decades long trend of the hollowing out of the U.S. War Industry. He analyzes how in the past, war production was handled by Government Owned-Government Operated or GOGO plants, and that the U.S. used a vast bureaucracy to handle production and to pursue oversight for private contractors. He shows how gradually this system was dismantled, and the doors were thrown open for private investment, leading to today, where 88% of all military procurements are commercial.Moving on, Double D examines the rise of the Big Five Defense Contractors, Boeing, Raytheon, Northrup-Grumman, Lockheed-Martin, and General Dynamics. He shows how over a series of wars, these corporations were able to conglomerate in to massive entities that are responsible for the vast majority of domestic defense procurements. He shows how, through this process, these war corporations were also able to buy up what little oversight remained in defense contracting, establishing ties between the corporations and the highest points of power within the U.S. military apparatus. He also shows how defense contractors have forsaken practical production contractors for implements such as rifles, artillery shells, and ammunition, favoring instead experimental weapons systems which are tied to an endless reserve of government R and D dollars.Double D also examines the process of deindustrialization and offshoring of defense production. Highlighting the fact that only three plants manufacture military planes, only five plants produce missile systems, and only one plant had produced the black powder necessary for ammunition production until it exploded several years back. He shows how the contemporary U.S. Military is completely dependent on off shore production and foreign contractors. He also analyzes how the United States no longer has the skilled labor pool necessary to produce weapons of mass death, citing the reality that higher education as well as skill certification is locked behind a paywall that most Americans are unable to bypass; he contrasts this present day situation to the 1950's, where the U.S. government heavily subsidized education in the fields of science and technology.Moving on, Double D examines the culture of corruption that exists within the U.S. military itself. He cites several examples of theft and fraud that persisted through the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars. He quotes a veteran who covers military corruption who said: "The amount of theft going on is worse than when I was a young soldier in Vietnam." Double D suggests that a culture of gangsterism, as well as the inefficiency and bottomless well of dollars which exists in the military, have created an organization where corruption has become the norm.Double D also examines the long history of Defense Contractors being involved in fraud and negligence. He cites examples from the Securities and Exchanges Commission, including cases against Halliburton, 3M, Boeing, and many more. He shows how the modern day military industrial complex has become another example of a gamified economic system, where efficiency and cost to value production no longer matter, having seemingly been replaced by a culture of graft and profit by any means necessary.Double D rounds off the video by suggesting that these trends sig

The Middle East is in turmoil. The hope and promise of the 2011 Arab Spring are now a distant memory. The toppling of the decrepit Mubarak regime in Egypt was greeted by many Egyptians with joy. But that elation didn't last long. Since 2014, Egypt is ruled by General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. Sisi has changed his uniform for an Armani suit. If you criticize him and his regime you can easily land up in jail or worse. There is something like 60,000 political prisoners in Egypt. In terms of freedom of the press, Egypt ranks 168th out of 180 countries. That doesn't seem to bother Washington. Cairo is a major recipient of U.S. aid and is a lucrative market for Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and Northrup Grumman weapons sales. Meanwhile, off the radar screen is the ongoing Saudi/UAE bloodbath in Yemen. Interview by David Barsamian. Recorded at the Middle East Studies Association annual conference.

In addition to his full-time job as a data analyst at Northrup Grumman in Baltimore, Justin Falcinelli is spending considerable time working to affect change as a member of the College Football Players Association. As a member of Clemson's football team from 2015 to 2018, and the starting center on the team that smacked Alabama 44-16 for the national title, Falcinelli has a deep understanding of how big and profitable college football has become. He also believes athletes should have a bigger share of the revenues that are currently being spent on skyrocketing salaries for coaches. The thrust of Falcinelli's efforts is to secure long-term health care for college athletes. In his mind, that's the least that big-time athletics can do for players who often face lifelong health issues after playing a violent game. Falcinelli also looks back to the amazing run he was able to be a part of, when Clemson rose from pretty good to perennially great. In the 2018 CFP semifinal against Notre Dame, Falcinelli suffered what ended up being a serious ankle injury. He pushed through as the Tigers' offensive line protected Trevor Lawrence and allowed for the Tigers to slice apart the Crimson Tide's defense. Falcinelli graduated from Clemson with a degree in management and then earned his MBA.

August 4th, 2022, was one of the most active launch days in recent memory. The Talking Space Team attempts to check all the boxes bringing a little insight into each one, including some launch audio from the Mighty AtalsV that carried the SIBRSGEO 6 into orbit and the scream of the Falcon 9 as it took South Korea's KPLO probe to the Moon.   We briefly discuss some debris left from a Chinese rocket that showered down on the Philippines and some flotsam from the SpaceX Crew-1 Trunk that impacted an Australian sheep paddock.   The war in Ukraine has impacted everything for the worse. The repercussions have been felt far and wide, and the space sector has not been immune. The Northrup Grumman Antares 230 launch vehicle is another victim of the war; the fabrication shop for its core stage located in Ukraine was destroyed. With only enough parts to assemble two more rockets, Northrup Grumman has a plan for a domestic version of Antares, which will take an unusual alliance of a bold new corporate venture and an old lion ready to learn new tricks.  Speaking of Russia, is Roscosmos leaving the International Space Station Partnership like the mainstream media is saying? We provide real context around the story. Artemis -1, the first launch of a new program to return humans to the Moon, create a sustainable presence there, and move on to Mars, is set for an August 29th launch attempt. We discuss the mission objectives for this first flight, the non-human crew, and the implications for this test flight.  Dr. Kat Robeson brings a NASA JPL article to our attention concerning the Antarctic Ice Shelf and the loss of mass it may have experienced. We also mention that on the day we recorded ( August 11th ), operational control of the  Landsat 9 Earth Observation Satellite was turned over to the US Geological Survey from NASA. We end the show reminding all that while exploring the heavens is a vital part of space, looking down at our planet is just as critical.    Host: Sawyer Rosenstein Panelists: Dr Kat Robison & Gene Mikulka  Engineer and Editor: Mark Ratterman

In this episode we sit down with a true veteran in the CRE industry, Bob Mohr. We discuss how Bob has built his empire and how he has actually thrived during COVID when most have struggled. We dive into the retail, industrial and office segments separately and get his take on the current events and future of each segment! We hope you enjoy! Here is additional information about our guest! Two years after the Indiana native moved to Dallas to begin a promising career in commercial real estate, the market crashed. A less tenacious individual might have been disheartened by the downturn in 1986. Bob Mohr saw it as an opportunity to serve an underrepresented clientele—commercial real estate tenants who had no choice but to work with brokers and others representing both sides of a transaction. As the Founder and CEO of Mohr Partners, he leveraged his long-term vision, savvy negotiating skills and commitment to looking out for his clients' best interests into a unique business model that has made Mohr Partners the go-to representative for high-profile corporations around the globe. Today, the company provides a comprehensive suite of client-focused services that include web-based software, strategic planning, economic development, construction management, lease administration, financing, and brokerage services. With 24 offices and more than 300 associates, Mohr is the largest exclusive corporate real estate services firm in North America—overseeing 500 million square feet of space in more than 20,000 locations.

We spoke about how he carried a lot of anger towards his father who left him at a young age and how when they reunited they came to blows!
