In December, ICE agents began arriving in Minneapolis under the Trump administration's “Operation Metro Surge.” As of late January, 3,000 agents are on the ground in the city, outnumbering local police officers three-to-one, pursuing a campaign defined by its cruelty: ICE has abducted children as young as two, and agents have used those children as bait to draw out and arrest their families. To counter these efforts, locals have organized vast mutual aid and rapid response operations, with block-by-block networks mobilizing to deliver supplies and run errands for undocumented people who can't leave their homes without fear of detention. These locals have been met with violence. On January 7th, Renee Good, a mother and poet, was shot in the face by an ICE agent while she attempted to turn her car around. On Saturday—one day after a general strike brought tens of thousands to the streets in subzero temperatures—Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, was murdered while observing ICE, with agents firing at least ten shots at close range.On this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel speaks with three organizers on the ground in Minneapolis: Lily Cooper from UNIDOS's rapid response team, which has conducted legal observer trainings for almost 30,000 people across Minnesota; Kandace Montgomery, a local organizer, trainer, and movement strategist who co-founded Black Visions in 2017; and Jesse Meisenhelter, an organizer with Minneapolis Families for Public Schools, whose current campaign aims to build sanctuary school teams across the state. They discuss the legacies of local organizing since George Floyd's murder in 2020, the opportunities for the left-liberal coalition in this moment, and navigating the steep risks involved in this resistance work.

Summary: Want your frontline employees to consistently deliver wow moments—not just when they feel like it? Discover the proven DiJulius Group methodology that transforms random acts of kindness into designed, trained, and repeatable customer experiences that build emotional connection and loyalty at scale. In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, customer experience expert John DiJulius breaks down the four-pillar system world-class organizations use to eliminate "employee roulette" and create signature experiences customers can't stop talking about. What You'll Learn: Service Aptitude: How to train teams to read customer cues and recognize wow opportunities—even when customers don't explicitly ask for help (why "fine" is the F-bomb of customer service) Secret Service Systems: Hidden intelligence tools that make every customer feel like a VIP, from color-coded appointment books to the "white cape vs. black cape" technique used in John Robert's Spa for 30+ years Zero Risk Service Recovery: The fastest way to earn loyalty isn't delight—it's removing uncertainty through communication, clarity, and ownership (includes the Service Recovery Paradox research) Non-Negotiable Standards: How to turn wow behaviors into journey-mapped touch points that don't depend on superstar employees Real-World Examples Featured: The $15,000 Painter Story: How one contractor earned a lifetime referral by taking down a Christmas tree, switching out a damaged bedpost, and cleaning up so well "you couldn't tell he was there" at 5pm each day—proof that wow moments don't have to be expensive The Concierge Doctor Paradox: Why a 4-month wait for primary care appointments is driving patients back to premium concierge services (and what that teaches about making price irrelevant) The $4 Airline Snack Fail: When a flight attendant argued with a frequent flyer over a declined card instead of just giving him the item—a masterclass in missing the wow moment Key Frameworks & Systems: The LEAST Service Recovery Method: Listen Empathize Apologize Solve Thank The 80-20 Rule for Service Defects: 80% of problems happen in 20% of areas—train intensely on those bottlenecks first FORD Intelligence System: Track Family, Occupation, Recreation, Dreams to personalize every interaction The Three-Stage Journey Map Structure: Service Defects: What frustrates customers (don't do this) Non-Negotiable Standards: Operational + experiential musts (do this every time) Above & Beyond Opportunities: Pattern recognition moments (do this when it presents itself) Critical Insights: "The customer may complain about what went wrong, they're gonna rave about how well we handled it." - John DiJulius The Service Recovery Paradox: Companies that drop the ball and pick it up create MORE loyalty than never dropping it at all Employee roulette is the #1 killer of customer experience—your experience shouldn't depend on which employee someone gets Policy-driven cultures create employee paranoia and customer frustration—empowerment drives both morale and revenue Wow moments work in ANY industry, even ones without repeat customers (injury attorneys, funeral homes, basement waterproofing) Discount is the tax you pay for an average experience—make the experience so good that price becomes irrelevant Perfect For: Customer Experience Directors training frontline teams Contact center managers reducing complaint volume Retail and hospitality leaders eliminating employee roulette Service business owners wanting more referrals Anyone trying to scale personalization without adding headcount Tactical Implementation Guide: Start Tomorrow: Pick ONE stage of your customer journey and improve it this week. Focus on: The greeting (eye contact, enthusiastic greeting, ear-to-ear smile, engage, educate) Using customer names twice per interaction Asking "Is there anything else I can do for you today, Ms. [Name]?" Weekly Cadence: Send 2-5 minute micro-learning videos every Wednesday covering service aptitude, secret service, zero risk, or celebrating employee above-and-beyond stories (creates positive FOMO) Celebrate Above & Beyond: When employees deliver wow moments, share stories company-wide to reinforce behavior AND inspire others Featured Resources: Experience Revolution Membership (March 9th workshop: Breaking Down Silos) Customer Experience Executive Academy (CXEA) 12-month certification The Five E's: Eye contact, Enthusiastic greet, Ear-to-ear smile, Engage, Educate Stop hoping your people deliver great experiences.

General Blaine Holt argues that a military strategy regarding Iran should prioritize "combat enabling operations" designed to help local citizens overthrow the regime rather than pursuing a traditional occupation with boots on the ground. He advocates for a limited air and sea campaign that empowers the Iranian people to reclaim their country, followed by international support for security and economic reintegration once the dictatorship is removed.1952

I'm joined by Josh Martin as we process the killing of Alex Pretti by federal agents, during what feels like an occupation or hostage crisis for Minneapolis. It's the third shooting and the second killing in less than three weeks. And even though state and local government feels powerless to do much of anything right now, we talk about all the major races up for election in 2026; the importance of showing up to caucus; and why some of our neighbors may not feel safe enough to participate.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

When Donald Trump floated the idea of acquiring Greenland, the media treated it as comedy — late-night fodder, Twitter mockery, and a thousand smirking think-pieces about American vulgarity. What almost nobody bothered to ask was the obvious question: why Greenland?In this episode of Mark and Pete, we rewind the laughter and look at the map.Greenland sits at the crossroads of Arctic shipping routes, rare earth minerals, and military positioning that matters far more than most Western commentators are willing to admit. As the ice melts and global power shifts northward, the Arctic is no longer a frozen backwater but a strategic frontier — and one that China has been quietly and deliberately moving into for years.Trump's instinct wasn't madness. It was realism. Ungainly, unfashionable, and entirely out of step with a political class that prefers moral posturing to long-term planning. The real scandal isn't that the idea was voiced, but that it was laughed out of the room without serious consideration.We explore why modern Western culture confuses prudence with paranoia, why strategic thinking is now treated as bad manners, and how history tends to reward those who plan ahead while punishing those who outsource responsibility to vibes.There's a biblical dimension too: foresight, stewardship, and the uncomfortable truth that wisdom often looks ridiculous before it looks obvious.

Nicolle Wallace covers the Washington Post's reporting that ICE is targeting children, as well as using children to arrest the adults in their lives. This reporting comes after ICE detained 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramons, then forced him to lure other adults in his home outside so that they too could be detained.Later, Cornell Belcher, John Heilemann, and Claire McCaskill join Nicolle to talk about the latest polling from The New York Times and Siena College, which show that much of Trump's policies are highly unpopular.For more, follow us on Instagram @deadlinewhTo listen to this show and other MS NOW podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

Palestinians in Gaza view a future of rule by U.S. President Donald Trump’s newly inaugurated Board of Peace as representing “another form of occupation” said Haaretz correspondent Nagham Zbeedat, speaking on the Haaretz Podcast. Zbeedat, who covers Palestinian affairs and the Arab world, said that Trump’s vision of an American-led international stabilization force – intended to replace Hamas after it disarms – is likely to be problematic. American “complicity and cooperation with the Israeli army” during the war means that for Palestinians, “the U.S. is the same as Israel. So any government or group that comes from the U.S. will not be welcomed with open arms.” In the short-term, Zbeedat said, the desperate humanitarian situation means that Gazans will “accept the circumstances that they are put in, as long as there are no more airstrikes, as long as food is on the shelves, and as long as there is water, shelter, clothes coming in, and medical care.” But overall, Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere are “not excited” about the Trump plan because of the lack of “any Palestinian presence or voice” at the decision-making level. Also on the podcast: Haaretz diplomatic correspondent Liza Rozovsky discusses the challenges ahead for the new Board of Peace – most prominently, the disinterest of major Western European countries in signing on. “When you are being squeezed and threatened by the U.S. over Greenland, it is pretty bad timing to be joining a Board of Peace chaired by Trump,” Rozovsky noted. For these countries, “giving up your veto power in the United Nations Security Council and just bowing to Trump is not a very attractive offer.” Read more: Trump's Board of Peace Finds Few Enthusiasts Among Palestinians in Gaza Israel's Netanyahu to Join Trump's Board of Peace Alongside Saudis, Qatar and Turkey Trump's Board of Peace Has European States Worried, but Most Refrain From Direct Criticism Trump's Gaza Board of Peace Aims to Rival UN, Charter Shows 'It Never Ended': As the World Moves On, For Gazans It's War as UsualSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nous sommes le 9 août 1950, au petit matin, dans l'ancienne boulangerie militaire d'Hoboken, à Anvers. L'officier SS allemand, Philippe Schmitt, ancien commandant du camp de Breendonk, le centre de détention puis de transit utilisé par les nazis quelques années plus tôt, est exécuté par un peloton composé de gendarmes. Il est le dernier condamné mis à mort en Belgique. Depuis novembre 1944, 241 autres personnes ont été fusillées après avoir été condamnées par un tribunal militaire pour collaboration ou crimes de guerre. Ces exécutions font figure d'exceptions dans l'histoire de la justice belge puisque depuis 1863, les condamnations à mort prononcées en temps de paix ne sont plus réalisées. Même si le code pénal de 1867 prévoit toujours la mort, par décapitation ou par balles, tous les condamnés sont graciés par le chef de l'Etat . Il y a eu, cependant, des dérogations à cette tradition, lors de la Grande Guerre déjà : douze soldats et huit espions sont exécutés après avoir été condamnés par la justice militaire. Ces dérogations vont prendre de l'ampleur à l'issue du Deuxième conflit mondial. Quel est le profil des condamnés ? Quelles tensions politiques, militaires, sociétales les exécutions ont-elles provoquées ? Pourquoi la grâce royale a, tout de même, été accordée à plusieurs reprises ? Fallait-il des exécutions pour passer à autre chose : autre chose que la guerre et l'occupation ? Invités : Elise Rezsöhazy, docteure en histoire (UCLouvain) et chercheuse CegeSoma/Archives de l'Etat et Stanislas Horvat est docteur en droit (VUB), professeur de droit pénal militaire à l'ERM et historien du droit à la VUB.

Air Date: 1/21/2026 Today we look at ICE's reign of terror as a paramilitary occupation force and the communities pushing back. We'll hear about Renee Goode, an unarmed woman shot dead by federal agents, and Keith Porter, killed by an off-duty agent on New Year's Eve, in addition to historical parallels from Civil-Rights Era Selma, Alabama and the Boston Massacre. The signs of hope here are that the oppressed won those fights and the oppressors were forced to retreat - there's every reason to believe that the same pattern can repeat today. Be part of the show!

The state of Minnesota is under siege by our own federal government, and residents—immigrant and US-born alike—are living in fear. With the deployment of over 3,000 federal agents to Minnesota in recent weeks,  this is the Trump administration's largest and most violent so-called “immigration enforcement” operation yet—and with President Trump threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota in response to protests over ICE's terror campaign, the situation on the ground is extremely volatile. Amid this federal invasion, unions, community organizations, faith leaders, and small businesses in Minnesota are calling for a statewide day of “no work (except for emergency services), no school, and no shopping” on January 23.In this urgent episode, we speak with three union members and organizers in the Twin Cities—Daniel Troccoli, Douglas Williams, and Janette Corcelius—about the situation on the ground in Minnesota, and about the proposed general strike this Friday.Additional links/info:1/23: ICE OUT OF MN call to action and Facebook event page1/23 ICE OUT OF MN Org Sign UpSarah Lazare & Amie Stager, In These Times, “‘We are facing a tsunami of hate': Amid ICE crackdown, unions and community groups call for Minnesota shutdown in 10 Days”Luis Feliz Leon, Labor Notes, “Will ICE ignite a mass strike in Minnesota?”Suzanne Gamboa, Shaquille Brewster, & Colin Sheeley, NBC News, “Immigration officers around Minneapolis are approaching people and demanding proof that they're U.S. citizens”Rachel Leingang & Maanvi Singh, The Guardian, “‘Make no mistake, this is an occupation': ICE's deadly presence casts long shadow over Minneapolis”Joseph Cox, 404 Media, “Inside ICE's tool to monitor phones in entire neighborhoods”John Hamilton, Democracy Now!, “ICE vs. People of Minnesota: A special report on community resistance to Trump's militarized crackdown”Featured Music:Jules Taylor, Working People Theme SongCredits:Audio Post-Production: Jules TaylorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Klaus Barbie. Maurice Papon. Paul Touvier. Au nom d'une idéologie raciste et barbare, ces trois hommes se sont rendus coupables de crimes atroces, visant hommes, femmes et enfants, dans la France occupée. Mais il aura fallu attendre plus de quarante ans après les faits pour qu'ils soient jugés. À partir d'archives, parfois inédites, de dizaines d'heures d'enregistrement des audiences, de nombreux témoignages et des travaux les plus récents, ce livre raconte l'histoire de ces procès hors norme, où pour la première fois en France, des hommes sont jugés pour crime contre l'humanité. Un tournant est alors opéré dans la société française qui prend conscience des réalités de la Shoah.Bénédicte Vergez-Chaignon, historienne, spécialiste de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et de l'Occupation en France est notre invité en studioHébergé par Audiomeans.

For Michael Sfard, one of Israel's most prominent human rights lawyers and author of the forthcoming book Occupation from Within: How Israel's Oppression of the Palestinians Turned Inwards, the government's anti-democratic proposals, collectively known as the "judicial overhaul", are a culmination of the decades-long occupation of the Palestinians. The episode is sponsored by the Sady and Ludwig Kahn Chair in Jewish History at UCLA and co-hosted by Prof David N. Myers.

Sat Nam Sovereign Sister! If you feel like you don't know who you are, it's not because your Soul is missing. It's because your nervous system is running an inherited survival program that has distorted the field where your Soul expresses itself. In this episode, we break down false identity from generational trauma through two lenses: Kundalini Yoga Therapy (energy signal + electromagnetic field repair) and Jesus / A Course in Miracles (holiness as lived experience, not self-improvement).You'll learn why trauma doesn't only live in memories, it can create a rupture where intrusive patterns take over:The Gnostics called these distortions archons (ruling forces of fear, shame, confusion).Carl Jung described a similar reality as autonomous complexes—parts that can run your mind like a separate agenda.And here's the thing: if you treat this like a mindset problem, you'll keep blaming yourself.If you understand it as just a moment of nervous system dysregulation + inherited survival + a scrambled signal, you can actually repair it so inherited survival patterns stops getting passed down.Inside this episode, we cover:-Why identity confusion shows up as “I'm too much / not enough / I'm broken / I can't trust myself / I don't belong” from an energetic perspective -How trauma changes breath, heart rhythm, brain signaling, and your whole sense of self from the perspective of Carl Jung's, Gnosticism, Kundalin Yoga Therapy, Jesus in A Course in Miracles, and science -What “closing the gate” really means (without fear, without fighting energy)-Why devotion + meditation strengthens your inner sanctuary so you stop being recruitable by guilt-ACIM Lesson 109: “I rest in God.” (rest as identity restoration) as a way to close the gate If you're a first-time cycle breaker, your permission is this:You are not crazy. You are not weak. Your Soul is not broken.Your system can be retrained and your healing reaches seven generations before and after you.If this lands, drop a comment: What false identity has tried to rule your life?Like, subscribe, and share this with a sister who's been saying, “I don't feel like myself anymore.”✨ Join the Sovereign Sisterhood Sanctuary for first time generational cycle breakers (Kundalini Yoga Therapy + ACIM spiritual psychotherapy):

Pat Kahnke and Adam Swenson expose the sick propaganda campaign fueling ICE's growing presence in Minneapolis and St. Paul. From armored vehicles on local streets to disturbing federal tweets about “peace after 100 million deportations,” we unpack how messaging is being weaponized to justify fear, division, and unchecked power.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back former U.S. Capitol Police Officer and January 6 hero Harry Dunn for a sobering breakdown of the ICE shooting that killed U.S. citizen Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. We dissect the conflicting narratives between federal officials' claims and eyewitness and video evidence, and Harry explains why training, use-of-force standards, and accountability matter now more than ever. We also examine the FBI taking over the investigation from state authorities, the dangerous escalation of armed agents in civilian protests, the broader pattern of unchecked federal power, and rapid ICE recruitment. We explore what happens when the rule of law is replaced by fear, intimidation, and political loyalty, especially as government rhetoric and selective outrage drive tensions to an all-time high.

What's happening in Minnesota isn't just an immigration crackdown — it's a warning. Under the Trump regime, immigration enforcement has shifted from border control to full-scale internal policing. ICE now operates deep inside U.S. cities, armed, masked, and largely unaccountable, targeting not just undocumented immigrants but entire communities. In Minnesota, thousands of federal agents have flooded the state following the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE officer, triggering protests, school walkouts, business closures, and lawsuits accusing the federal government of an unconstitutional invasion. Independent media has never been more important.

À Paris, le « service juif » est chargé d'appliquer la réglementation antisémite imposée par l'occupant nazi. Au même moment à Vichy, les agents du commissariat général aux Questions juives mettent en oeuvre les multiples mesures d'interdiction professionnelle et gèrent la spoliation des juifs.À partir de sources inédites, Laurent Joly signe la première étude comparée de ces deux institutions publiques qui ont joué, sous l'Occupation, un rôle majeur dans la politique de persécution antisémite.Alternant portraits de bureaucrates et approches quantitatives, cette enquête éclaire le fonctionnement de l'État et ses dérives en situation exceptionnelle. Dans le contexte d'Occupation et de dictature pétainiste, la porosité entre administrations traditionnelles et organismes nouveaux de la Révolution nationale apparaît plus importante qu'on ne le pensait, favorisée qu'elle était par l'extrême politisation de l'activité bureaucratique.Laurent Joly est notre invité en studioHébergé par Audiomeans.

Inside the Occupation, the Resistance, and the Cost of Survival Season Two of Colony deepens everything that made the series one of the most compelling dystopian dramas of the last decade. Set in a fractured, authoritarian Los Angeles under alien rule, the show sharpens its focus on loyalty, rebellion, and the impossible choices ordinary people face when their world is carved up by occupiers and collaborators. Interviews include: Josh Holloway as Will Bowman A former Army Ranger and FBI agent, Will is now working inside the Transitional Authority. His job gives him access, leverage, and danger in equal measure — especially as he uncovers the truth about the Hosts' plans. Sarah Wayne Callies as Katie Bowman Katie, owner of The Yonk — a New Orleans–style bar — remains deeply embedded in the Resistance.

ARRESTING THE CABINET AND DEFINING CLASS A CRIMES Colleague Professor Gary J. Bass. As MacArthur's occupation forces arrived in a ruined Tokyo, they began arresting suspects, including former Prime Minister Tojo Hideki, who botched a suicide attempt. The upcoming International Military Tribunal for the Far Eastcategorized offenses into Class A (aggressive war), Class B (conventional war crimes), and Class C (crimes against humanity). Prosecutors utilized the discovered diary of Kido Koichi, the Emperor's advisor, to map decision-making, though the Emperor himself remained untouched. Notably, while General Matsui was charged for the Nanjing Massacre, the Emperor's uncle, Prince Asaka, who was also commanding troops there, escaped prosecution entirely. NUMBER 31930 TOKYO

IndieSeen kicks off 2026 on a high note with special guest Alain Martin, the first-time feature director of The Forgotten Occupation: Jim Crow Goes to Haiti!This engrossing and thought-provoking documentary looks at the patterns of civil and colonial strife that have rocked the country since its inception. Framed as a letter to Martin's deceased grandfather, who held America in an esteem that directly countered that of his grandson, the film explores the complicated social movements, occupational resistance, corporate takeovers, and cultural strife that form the dueling identities at the heart of Haitian-American culture.In this wide-ranging conversation, Ian and Sujewa dig into Martin's decade-plus struggle to make, refine, and release the film; the editorial choices that invite audiences to dig deeper into modern day issues afflicting the nation; and his hopes for turning his beloved homeland around.The Forgotten Occupation will debut on various VOD platforms beginning in February, and kicks off a handful of limited runs in select cities, beginning with the L.A. premiere this weekend (more information below).Support Kicking the Seat on Patreon, subscribe to us on YouTube, and follow us at:XLetterboxdInstagramFacebookShow LinksWatch the Forgotten Occupation (2026) trailer.In L.A.?

 On Jan. 2, 2016, a dozen armed anti-government militants led by Ammon Bundy and his brother, Ryan, took over the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge headquarters outside of Burns in Harney County. The 41-day siege at the bird sanctuary in rural Eastern Oregon attracted national and international media attention. On Jan. 26, one of the militants, Arizona rancher Robert “LaVoy” Finicum, died during an armed confrontation with the FBI and Oregon State Police. Law enforcement also arrested the Bundys and several of their supporters that day, although prosecutors failed to secure convictions of the Bundys and five other defendants during a trial in the fall.  OPB legal affairs reporter Conrad Wilson and OPB visual journalist Eli Imadali recently traveled to Harney County to see how the Malheur occupation reverberates within the community 10 years later. Wilson joins us to share what he learned and the perspectives of former officials and community members he spoke with about the occupation and the challenges the county grapples with today.

Mens Room Question: Sex, Race, Religion or Occupation, what do you do that perfectly fits your stereotype?

In this high-stakes episode, Andrea is joined by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk as Putin openly claims alignment with the U.S., and Europe is being forced to, whether it likes it or not, hold the line.  Matviichuk, leader of the human rights organization Center for Civil Liberties, which was awarded the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize, lays out why the war in Ukraine is not a regional dispute or a diplomatic inconvenience, but a direct clash between civilization vs. a fascist crime spree, one that will determine the future balance of power for Europe and the world. She dismantles the dangerous fiction that Ukraine is a charity case or a drain on European stability. As she makes clear: "Ukraine is not a beneficiary of European security. Ukraine is a provider of European security." Our conversation exposes Russia's war crime playbook, including the mass kidnapping and forced assimilation of Ukrainian children, brainwashing them into soldiers for Putin's meatgrinder. As Matviichuk puts it: "Every person who wants to shake Putin's hand must acknowledge that they are shaking hands with the biggest child kidnapper in the world." This episode is a five-alarm fire. Europe has the money, the industry, the frozen Russian assets, and the historical memory to stop another Iron Curtain, but only if it abandons wishful thinking and acts. Occupation is not peace, and delay is not diplomacy. Pretending like this will somehow blow over is how democracies fail. Next week legal scholar Madiba Dennie, author of The Originalism Trap, joins Gaslit Nation to break down how the MAGA Supreme Court emerged from a fringe movement of Lee Atwater's Southern Strategy, and how we can have an all new Supreme Court, with the help of the power of impeachment.  Mark your calendar! The Gaslit Nation Holiday Party, complete with hope and holiday sweaters, will be this Monday December 22nd at 4pm ET with fun surprises for our community of listeners.
