Podcasts about obama state department

The Paley Center for Media in New York City hosted a film screening for “Rolling Along,” Senator Bill Bradley's one-man show about the 80-year-old's life, including a 10-year career in the NBA and three terms in the Senate, ending in 1997. Then, he spoke with Richard Stengel, who served as the senator's speechwriter on his 2000 presidential campaign in a career that has included roles in the Obama State Department, as an editor at Time, and as a collaborator on Nelson Mandela's autobiography. The Senator and the editor discussed why Bradley made the film, how he hopes it will inspire a polarized nation, what his greatest achievements have been on the court and the Senate floor, when and where you can see the documentary, and his thoughts on sports wagering and NIL.

Mike speaks with former Obama State Department official Jeremy Shapiro, now the director of research at the European Council on Foreign Relations and author of "The Art of Vassalisation: How Russia's war on Ukraine has transformed transatlantic relations." And in eulogizing Jordan Neely today, the Reverend Al Sharpton asserted that if a black man killed an Elvis impersonator on the subway, he have been immediately charged. Mike offers contrary evidence. Plus, it's an Antwentig! Lobstars for all! (Disclaimer: Actually, Lobstar for one.)

This Presidents' Day episode on presidential power over war and foreign policy coincides with the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Feb. 24th. A veteran of four administrations' foreign policy teams, Yale Law professor Harold Koh, and Fordham Law colleagues Martin Flaherty and Tom Lee connect both topics: the Russian invasion, the history of presidential power, and the overlapping questions of national security and the risks to democracy from the outside – and from within the Oval Office.Harold Koh is a visiting professor at Fordham this spring, and Sterling Professor of International Law and former Dean at Yale Law School. He has served under four US presidents: in the Reagan DOJ, the Clinton State Department, the Obama State Department, and recently as Senior Advisor to the Biden State Department. He is author of the book “The National Security Constitution,” and discusses his update to the book, “The 21st Century National Security Constitution” (forthcoming 2023).Tom Lee is Leitner Family Professor of International Law at Fordham. Tom has a forthcoming book, “Justifying War,” and he also has extensive experience in the U.S. military in intelligence and in the Defense Department as special counsel.Marty Flaherty is Leitner Family Professor of Law and Founding Co-Director of the Leitner Center for International Law and Justice at Fordham Law School.  He is the author of the Restoring the Global Judiciary: Why the Supreme Court Should Rule in Foreign Affairs, and he is also a leading expert on the history of the presidency, especially at the Founding.

THE THESIS: Facebook is an adjunct of government, in service of The Party.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  We are living in a time of universal deceit. People have turned against God's Word in every conceivable fashion. In their rebellion, they are spiritually blind. In my opinion, being spiritually blind makes it harder to live in  truth--if not impossible.  21 Important Bible verses about spiritual blindness THE NEWS & COMMENT: Miranda Devine, writing in the NY Post, describes the decision Facebook employees apparently made to spy on the “private” message of its users. Without a warrant or subpoena, they sent messages they determined were too critical of the “authorities” or questioned the 2020 election to the FBI.  Facebook spied on private messages of Americans who questioned 2020 election Facebook has been spying on the private messages and data of American users and reporting them to the FBI if they express anti-government or anti-authority sentiments — or question the 2020 election — according to sources within the Department of Justice. Under the FBI collaboration operation, somebody at Facebook red-flagged these supposedly subversive private messages over the past 19 months and transmitted them in redacted form to the domestic terrorism operational unit at FBI headquarters in Washington, DC, without a subpoena. “It was done outside the legal process and without probable cause,” alleged one of the sources, who spoke on condition of ­anonymity. “Facebook provides the FBI with private conversations which are protected by the First Amendment without any subpoena.” . . . This is the same Facebook that colluded with the CDC and the DHS. To me, that indicates it is company policy to be the censorship arm of The Party.  It's not just censorship, it's paying citizens to create propaganda. When the Soros-funded group called “Good Information” launched, the Mockingbird Media members at Axios ran what was effectively a press release for them.  “A new public benefit corporation backed by billionaires Reid Hoffman, George Soros, and others is launching Tuesday to fund new media companies and efforts that tackle disinformation. Why it matters: Good Information Inc. aims to fund and scale businesses that cut through echo chambers with fact-based information. As part of its mission, it plans to invest in local news companies.” Shockingly, this group is apparently contacting social media influencers to pay them to create anti-Trump propaganda. Incidentally, as a 501-c-3, this is illegal conduct.  [AUDIO] - Influencer says he was offered money to spread anti-Trump Jan 6 lies on TikTok, brings receipts "I was just offered $400 to make an anti-Donald Trump propaganda post related to the January 6 investigation that is completely not true," Preston Moore, Esq. said in the video. Attorney and TikToker @TrialByPreston revealed in a video that the Good Information Foundation attempted to pay him $400 to spread unsubstantiated rumours and misinformation about January 6, President Trump, and his 2020 presidential campaign. "I was just offered $400 to make an anti-Donald Trump propaganda post related to the January 6 investigation that is completely not true," Preston Moore, Esq. said in the video. The Good Information Foundation, headed by Rick Stengel, Former Under Secretary of State in Obama administration, emphasizes that "America is in an information crisis," and that "disinformation is threatening public health, safety, social trust and democracy." Also of note, that group is run by a former Obama State Department official. You know, the same Obama who started using the FBI to launch a coup attempt against President Trump? The Mockingbird Media folks at MSNBC have been turning to disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strok to vouch for the credibility of the agency.  [AUDIO] -  MSNBC's Morning Joe brings on @PeterStrzok to argue on behalf of the FBI's integrity: “It's not that the FBI is targeting any one side or the other. What you see is the FBI going out on a day-in and day-out basis objectively investigating allegations of law.” Here's Strok celebrating the use of the FBI to attack political opponents.  Legal Insurrection explains why the timing of this is at the heart of the story.  Election Interference: DOJ/FBI Carpet-Bombed Subpoenas An Attempt To Freeze Political Opposition In Runup To Midterms; If Trumpworld and conservative world and Republican world legitimately were deserving of carpet bombed subpoenas regarding January 6, it would have been done a year ago, not now in the runup to the 2022 midterms. It's reminiscent of the 2013-2014 prosecutorial attempt to freeze the Wisconsin conservative movement. Getting the Special Master seems like the right step given the fact that the FBI's bosses who run things are without a doubt a politically opposed to Trump and advocating diktats hostile to families, God, children and the constitution.  Exclusive: Former top FBI official involved in Trump-Russia investigation under scrutiny by federal prosecutors for his own ties to Russia Durham shocker: Danchenko was a paid FBI informant:  “[The FBI] hid it from the FISA Court and from the public. Danchenko continued as a CHS throughout Mueller's service as Special Counsel. Danchenko couldn't be touched because of his status as CHS, thus protecting Mueller and the FBI.” Mar-a-Lago Raid: Judge Rejects DOJ Request For Partial Stay, Appoints Special Master; As to DOJ claims that documents are classified and not subject to executive privilege: “The Court does not find it appropriate to accept the Government's conclusions on these important and disputed issues without further review by a neutral third party in an expedited and orderly fashion….” Kyle Cheney, Senior Legal Affairs Reporter at The Politico has a detailed and refreshingly balanced thread on Judge Cannon order where she once again called out media leaks as a reason she is siding with Trump.  Judge CANNON has denied DOJ's motion for a partial stay and has appointed Raymond DEARIE as special master. Senator Ron Johnson--heroically going after Big Pharma and Fauci--invites his Senate colleague retract the charge that the Hunter Biden laptop story was a hoax . . . in defense of his colleague, the FBI treated it as Russian propaganda, as did Facebook. How weird . . .  [AUDIO] - Sen. Johnson to Dem Sen. Peters: ‘do you want to retract' your false allegations that my Hunter Biden report ‘was rooted in Russian disinformation?' These people are utterly lost to lies. God appears to have rendered them incapable of speaking truth. Praise God that He has allowed us to have His Word in which we ground ourselves, so we more easily see the lies of this fallen world.  [AUDIO] - Fact Check: False! MSNBC Analyst Paints Biden As A 'Retired War Hero' [AUDIO] - ABRAMS:  "I have never denied that I lost" the last Georgia gubernatorial election. "I'm not delusional, just so that's clear."

It appears President Trump has read Dr. Corsi's new ebook, "The Plan To Remove Donald Trump From the Presidency" https://corsination.com/shop/the-plan-to-remove-donald-trump-from-the-presidency-ebook-only/ and Dr. Corsi shares nore exerpts that blow the cover off the coordinated attack on President Donald Trump by the forces of darkness: Excerpts: "Weissman targeted Kushner for criminal investigation in the Mueller investigation after learning Kushner had taken undisclosed loans from several billionaires, including George Soros – a Trump nemesis.9 Kushner also had a cozy relationship with Qatar given Qatar’s investment in a Canadian asset-management company that put up $1.4 billion to bail Kushner out of a mortgage he was unable to repay on the Kushner’s ill-fated investment in 666 Fifth Avenue – a property that distinguished the New York Fifth Avenue skyline for years by proudly displaying the “sign of the beast” 666 in large numerals on the building’s top façade.10 When Barr finally pulled the pin on the Mueller probe, Weissman was itching to indict Kushner over business dealings with Qatar and the Saudis that Kushner continued to conduct through the Trump transition period." https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-adviser-jared-kushner-didnt-disclose-startup-stake-1493717405 "Jared entered the White House proclaiming he was the genius who would bring peace between the Palestinians and Jews. A claim he made despite never ending rancor that could arguably be traced back to the Biblical Abraham whom both Jews and Palestinians embrace as their incommon patriarch. Netanyahu gave Jared polite attention when Jared first arrived in Israel with his peace plan. Netanyahu extended this courtesy to Jared solely because of Jared’s closeness to Trump. The Palestinians were originally relieved and encouraged that Trump had agreed to assign his administration’s policy in the Middle East to Jared, a person they believed would be more favorably inclined to their interests than even the Obama State Department had been. But in the end, the Palestinians finally declined to accept Jared’s overtures. The rejection was accomplished over the weekend of February 1-2, 2020, when the 22-nation Arab League unanimously voted not to accept Jared’s proposal. This rejection was further solidified the following day, on Monday, February 3, 2020, by the 57-nation Organization of Islamic Cooperation. In his typically childish manner, Kushner blamed his failure on the one group that refused to talk with him: the Palestinians." Tune in Monday through Friday at 11:00am EDT for another show.

INTRODUCING Consortium News Radio, an ongoing series of radio interviews with newsmakers and Consortium News writers intended to delve deeper into stories published on Consortium News. On the premiere edition of Consortium News Radio we speak with Peter Van Buren, a former State Department official, whistleblower and victim of Twitter censorship. Van Buren speaks about his experiences in Iraq, the critical book he wrote about those experiences and how the Obama State Department attempted to have him tried under the Espionage Act. In early August 2018, Van Buren had his Twitter account permanently shut down and seven years of his Tweets wiped from the record. Why? Because he challenged mainstream journalists who contested a tweet from journalist Glenn Greenwald that mainstream reporters support America’s wars and help bring them about. One corporate journalist decided to silence Van Buren by complaining to Twitter, which, within two days, and with no due process, obliged. Joe Lauria, editor-in-chief of Consortium News, interviewed Van Buren on Wednesday, Aug. 8, for 40 minutes. Don't forget to subscribe to the show.

It appears that Clinton associate Tony Podesta is getting an immunity deal in exchange for testifying against Paul Manafort. Judicial Watch obtained government records showing Podesta's lobbying firm worked for a pro-Russia Ukrainian political party in conjunction with the Obama State Department. The documents also show longtime Obama and Clinton counselor John Podesta lobbying on behalf of his brother's firm.

Iran, North Korea, Syria, Brexit, Paris Agreement, China. Prime Minister Abe, Macron, Merkel, Xi, a fellow named Putin. At a time when U.S. foreign policy – when diplomacy itself – requires as much clarity and coordination and skill as it has in decades, ours has been going through – to put it diplomatically – a major transition.You know the headlines: Thousands of State Department positions unfilled. Budgets slashed. Tillerson fired. One day we have the world’s biggest button; the next, we’re ready to travel across the world for a summit with a leader who just months ago was a madman.How’d we get here?That’s what Ronan Farrow has pieced together – through exceptional storytelling and just plain reporting – in his new book “War on Peace: The End of Diplomacy and the Decline of American Influence.” Farrow did the work, talking with every living Secretary of State. And what he’s pulled together is the story of not only the shrinking, but also the militarization, of U.S. foreign policy. And to be clear: It didn’t start with Trump.You might have heard of Farrow. He’s a bit ubiquitous and, if you ask me, extraordinary. He just won a share of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for public service: his The New Yorker articles helped to uncover the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse allegations and played an important part in fueling the #MeToo movement. He has been a lawyer, diplomat, journalist, and a Rhodes Scholar. He worked in the Obama State Department as Special Adviser for Humanitarian and NGO Affairs in the Office of the Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan, among other roles.And as you’ll hear, he’s also extremely gracious, which is not a bad quality, even if you’re no longer a diplomat.
