Today's shifting global order is increasingly restrictive, and even hostile, toward human mobility. Meanwhile, geopolitical volatility continues to drive more people to seek safety across borders. In response, Carnegie Council's Model International Mobility Convention (MIMC) project held a special multi-part convening at the Council's Global Ethics Hub in New York. The event began with a presentation and fireside chat on the state of international migration featuring Carnegie Council Senior Fellow Michael Doyle and Greg Maniatis, director, refugees & migration at Open Society Foundations. Following the fireside chat, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Molly O'Toole moderated a panel discussion on key challenges facing migrants within the U.S. and at the Southern border.

Georgiana Pascu, manager de programe la Centrul de Resurse Juridice (CRJ), a fost premiată recent de Departamentul de Stat din SUA în cadrul galei „International Women of Courage”. Prima Doamnă Melania Trump a vorbit în cadrul ceremoniei despre curajul activistei românce. Georgiana Pascu ne-a vorbit despre munca sa, despre eforturile echipei de la Centrul de Resurse Juridice de a apăra drepturile persoanelor cu dizabilități instituționalizate și de a descoperi abuzurile din unele instituții care ar trebui să le ofere protecție acestor persoane. De ani de zile Centrul de Resurse Juridice verifică instituțiide protecție socială, cămine unde locuiesc persoane cu diverse dizabilități și nu de puține ori adescoperit abuzuri teribile.Ne amintimștirile despre „căminele groazei” din 2023 dar şi desprealte situaţii de tratamente inumane din instituţiile care ar trebui să protejeze persoanele cu dizabilităţi. Cum faceți să ajungeți în asemenea locuri?Georgiana Pascu: „Ajungem greu. Sau uneori ajungem uşor dar intrăm greu, tot mai greu. Ne temem că în curînd accesul va fi şi mai mult restricţionat. Avem în continuare un protocol de colaborare cu Consiliul de Monitorizare pentru monitorizarea implementării convenţiei ONU privind drepturile persoanelor cu dizabilităţi, ne bucurăm în continuare de recunoaşterea calităţii procesuale active a CRJ în numele unor beneficiari şi chiar şi a organizaţiei prin ordonanţele unor procurori. Ajungem de cele mai multe ori ca urmare a unor plîngeri pe care le transmit fie aparţinători, fie alte persoane cu dizabilităţi care au fost ajutate să iasă din locurile respective.”Cum vedeți activismul civic în România în condițiile în care ONG-urile sînt discreditate sistematic și iresponsabil de tot felul de politicieni, inclusiv de cei considerați democratici? Cum răspundeţi la acuzațiile de sosorsism, care aproape că s-au banalizat?Georgiana Pascu: „Eu sînt mîndră de această înregimentare sorosistă. Dacă nu ar fi existat Open Society Foundations şi Soros, acest program nu ar fi existat, şi nici Centrul de Resurse Juridice. A fost principalul finanţator al nostru. E o opinie pur personală, nu neapărat instituţională şi nu reprezintă sectorul neguvernamental, dar ceea ce văd eu prin lipsa resurselor financiare şi controlul excesiv pe care-l avem ca organizaţii de drepturile omului din partea sistemului financiar şi alte sisteme ale statului român, ne arată că de fapt nu sîntem doriţi în această ţară. Pentru că altfel ar exista o deschidere, o preluare a ceea ce spunem noi, o regîndire a sistemului şi, bineînţeles, ar exista linii de finanţare.” Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!

Ein Kommentar von Tilo Gräser.Regimewechsel, Staatsstreich, Putsch – das gehört seit Jahren zu den Mitteln, mit denen die herrschenden Kreise der USA mit Hilfe der Geheimdienste, Stiftungen und angeblicher Nichtregierungsorganisationen andere Länder unter Kontrolle bringen. Die Liste der Beispiele dafür ist lang, sie beginnt nicht erst im 20. Jahrhundert und wird in diesem Jahrhundert fortgesetzt. Ein deutliches Beispiel ist die Ukraine, wo die USA 2014 einen Staatsstreich gegen einen gewählten Präsidenten organisierten und finanzierten. Das Ergebnis war und ist ein gespaltenes Land, auf dessen Territorium der US-geführte Westen Krieg gegen Russland führt, um so auch in Moskau einen Regimewechsel zu erreichen.Die Übernahme andere Länder hat verschiedene Motive – entweder, um sie als mögliche Konkurrenten oder als potenzielle, störende Regionalmächte in US-Interessensphären auszuschalten oder um ihre Rohstoffe in Besitz zu nehmen und sie als Absatzmärkte für die eigenen Konzerne zu sichern. Wenn die Führung eines Landes Nein sagt, wird sie mit Hilfe eines Staatsstreiches ausgetauscht. Die dabei eingesetzten Mittel variieren, von „Wirtschaftskillern“, wie sie John Perkins beschrieb, der selbst einer war, über „Demokratieförderung“ mit viel Geld und Unterstützung von oppositionellen und subversiven Kräften in dem jeweiligen Land, bis zu eigenen verdeckten Operationen und zuletzt dem Einsatz der eigenen Militärmacht. Meistens bleibt den Ländern der direkte Einsatz des US-Militärs erspart, aber nichtsdestoweniger werden sie zerstört, zu „failed states“ oder zu Kolonien degradiert.Ein Beispiel dafür ist derzeit Serbien, das als eines der Überbleibsel des zerstörten Jugoslawiens dem US-geführten Westen weiterhin ein Dorn im Auge ist, wie Thomas Röper im Februar dieses Jahres feststellte. Er beschrieb, wie westliche Kräfte in dem Land wieder zündeln, weil ihnen die Politik von Präsident Aleksandar Vučić nicht passt, der den antirussischen Kurs nicht mitmacht.Röper machte deutlich, wie der Westen in dem Land die prowestliche Opposition finanziert, die angeblich für nichts anderes als Demokratie und gegen Korruption eintritt. Das geschieht demnach durch eine Reihe verschiedener Organisationen, die er samt ihrer Verbindungen in den Westen aufführt. Dazu gehört unter anderem das Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), das vorgeblich Organisierte Kriminalität und Korruption aufdecken will. Der Journalist erklärte:„Wenig überraschend liest sich die Liste der Finanziers des OCCRP auch wieder wie ein Who-Is-Who der Transatlantiker und der westlichen Oligarchen-Stiftungen, die sich auf Regimechanges und Farbrevolutionen spezialisiert haben. Unter anderem sind dabei: Das britische, dänische und US-amerikanische Außenministerium, USAID, das National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Rockefeller, der Sigrid Lausen Trust und natürlich die Open Society Foundation von George Soros.“...hier weiterlesen: https://apolut.net/farbrevolution-in-den-usa-von-tilo-graser/ Hosted on Acast.

Is George Soros a philanthropic visionary… or the shadow architect of a globalist empire? “Shadow Money: The Soros Conspiracy Files” plunges into the labyrinth of myths, money, and manipulation surrounding one of the most polarizing figures on Earth. Hosted by an investigative journalist and a geopolitical strategist, this explosive documentary-style podcast dissects Soros's meteoric rise from Holocaust survivor to billionaire “Great Speculator,” unraveling the tangled web of his hedge fund dominance, political kingmaking, and the conspiracy theories that paint him as a modern-day puppet master.Was Soros the invisible hand behind regime changes, economic collapses, and cultural revolutions? We'll expose never-before-seen financial records, clandestine meetings with world leaders, and whistleblower testimonies that blur the line between philanthropy and power plays. Dive into the dark heart of far-right fever dreams—the “Soros-funded migrant caravans,” “Antifa bankrolling,” and his alleged “Great Reset” agenda—while forensic economists and intelligence insiders separate fact from fiction. But this isn't just a hit job: Hear Soros in his own words through rare archival audio, and discover how his Open Society Foundations became both a beacon of hope and a lightning rod for rage.From his $10 billion “bet against the British pound” to whispers of a “deep state” alliance, Shadow Money doesn't just ask questions—it follows the money. Whether he's saint or saboteur, one thing's clear: Soros's influence is a ticking time bomb in the war for democracy's soul. Subscribe now—before the truth gets shorted.

About the Guest(s): There are no guests featured in this episode. Willie Lawson, the host, delivered a solo segment. Lawson is a commentator and host for FightBackMedia.com, a platform known for its urban conservative viewpoint. He is recognized for his insight on political dynamics and current events, specifically focused on conservative narratives and issues often neglected by mainstream media. Episode Summary: Tune into this episode of the Morning Report by FightBackMedia.com, where host Willie Lawson delivers hard-hitting commentary on political dynamics often ignored by the mainstream. From judicial overreach in presidential powers to strategic global alliances, Lawson provides an unfiltered perspective on matters at the core of conservative politics. This episode dives head-first into the legal complexities surrounding President Trump's bid to restructure the USAID, questioning the judicial intervention led by Judge Theodore D. Shang. Despite the judge's ruling that Congress created the agency, Lawson argues that JFK's executive order actually birthed it, hence leaving the restructuring authority with the current President. The conversation explores the high stakes of potential judicial overreach, where unelected judges may wield undue influence over executive decisions, shaping the contours of presidential authority in the process. In the second segment, Lawson shifts his focus to controversial political funding maneuvers and internal Democratic tensions. He scrutinizes George Soros and his Open Society Foundation, detailing their role in the push against Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer amid dissatisfaction with his bipartisan efforts. Lawson questions the Democratic Party's true leadership, highlighting Soros's influence in shaping its direction. To conclude, he touches on a potential new alliance with the Commonwealth of Nations, speculating on the strategic benefits and challenges such a move could entail for US foreign policy. Key Takeaways:A federal judge's ruling restricts President Trump's authority over USAID, potentially setting a precedent for judicial overreach on executive powers.Despite claims of Congressional creation, USAID was established via executive order by President Kennedy, sparking debate on constitutional governance.George Soros and his network are applying pressure on Democratic leaders like Chuck Schumer, highlighting power struggles within the party.Indivisible, funded by Soros's Open Society, is actively campaigning against Schumer's leadership amid dissatisfaction with his bipartisan decisions.There is discussion on the strategic benefits of the US joining the Commonwealth of Nations, aiming to strengthen ties with allied countries and counterbalance Chinese influence.Notable Quotes:"The USAID was established by an executive order from President John Fitzgerald Kennedy back in 1961.""If this ruling stands, what's next? Will courts claim the president can't reorganize other executive agencies?""George Soros and his left-wing machine are turning on none other than Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.""When a radical left starts eating their own, you know things are getting interesting.""President Donald Trump has expressed enthusiasm about the United States potentially joining the Commonwealth of Nations."Resources:FightBackMedia.com: FightBackMedia.com – The primary platform for the Morning Report's content.Indivisible: Indivisible – Activist group mentioned as mobilizing against Schumer.Open Society Foundations: Learn more about Open Society Foundations.Engage in a thought-provoking episode packed with insightful conservative perspectives as Willie Lawson sheds light on these intricate political scenarios.

In this episode, I discuss how our tax dollars have been funneled to George Soros' Open Society Foundations to support left-wing causes globally and politically influence U.S. politics.

On any given day, there are 2,500-3,000 United States Army personnel in Africa undertaking a variety of engagements with their African counterparts. The U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) was established in October 2007, making it just over 17 years old—close to the age of majority. AFRICOM undertakes security exercises, civil affairs initiatives, and key leader engagements, among other activities. AFRICOM represents the third ‘D'—Defense—of U.S. foreign policy pillars, with defense and security being the most visible pillar across the continent. This has made AFRICOM the primary face of U.S. engagement for many African governments. This approach or reality has its advantages and drawbacks. Niger is perhaps the most telling case. The massive U.S. military presence in the country reflected the prominent role that defense and security objectives play in U.S.-Africa relations. The expulsion of U.S. forces from Niger in 2024 due to a disagreement over a military coup d'état diminished U.S. standing in the Sahel. Despite these challenges, AFRICOM plays an important role in ensuring the viability of the Global Fragility Act in the littoral states and Mozambique. AFRICOM's dual role as a security actor and partner in development creates both opportunities and tensions in U.S. engagement with African states.  Joining Into Africa is Brigadier General Rose Lopez Keravuori, Director of Intelligence (J2) at U.S. Africa Command. Brigadier General Keravuori will discuss AFRICOM's accomplishments, the challenges it has faced, and its evolving role in U.S.-Africa relations.  This event is made possible by the generous support of Open Society Foundations.

Neste episódio, convidamos Nina Santos, diretora executiva do Aláfia Lab, e Pedro Abramovay, vice-presidente de Programas da Open Society Foundations, para discutir o estado atual das big techs. Com a mudança de posicionamento dos executivos de grandes plataformas e alinhamento ao novo presidente dos Estados Unidos Donald Trump e outros líderes de extrema-direita, esforços contra desinformação e a própria experiência na internet parecem estar na berlinda. Nesse contexto, fica nítida a necessidade de regulamentação e de traçar estratégias para encarar essas mudanças. *** Já usou o Dadocracia em sala de aula?

Germany is a mess these days, and they have nobody to blame but themselves. The self-immolation has been taken to new levels under the forced migration imposed by George Soros' Open Society Foundation in conjunction with the European Union. Schools in Berlin are warzones, with teachers and principals quitting in droves to avoid being stabbed to death by their students representing 23 different countries who do not speak the language. Baltimore and Chicago may have low test scores, but violent crime has doubled in just a year in Berlin inside schools. Is diversity really Germany's strength, or did they fall for the advertising campaign?

Lecture summary: In this talk Sharifah Sekalala examines this critical moment in the making of Global Health Law, with two treaty making processes: the newly finalised revisions of the International Health Regulations and ongoing negotiations by the Intergovernmental Negotiation Body for a possible pandemic Accord or Instrument, as we well as soft-law proposals for the World Health Organization proposal for a medical countermeasures platform.The lecture will illustrate that despite the laudable objectives of creating a new system of international law that attempts to redress previous inequalities in accessing vaccines and countermeasures, they are unlikely to meet these broader objectives. The lecture will argue that this is because, despite being a public good, Global Health Law has always been underpinned by capitalist and post-colonial rationales which privilege trade. In order to make lasting changes, the current system of Global Health Law must focus on broader questions of ‘reparations' that will achieve greater equity.Sharifah is a Professor of Global Health Law at the University of Warwick and the Director of the Warwick Global Health Centre. She is an interdisciplinary researcher whose work is at the intersection of international law, public policy and global health. Professor Sekalala is particularly focused on the role of human rights frameworks in addressing global health inequalities. Her research has focused on health crises in Sub-Saharan Africa, international financing institutions and the rise of non-communicable diseases and she has published in leading legal, international relations and public health journals.Prof Sekalala is currently the PI on a Wellcome-Trust-funded project on digital health apps in Sub-Saharan Africa. Professor Sekalala is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences (FaSS) and she has consulted on human rights and health in many developing countries and worked for international organisations such as UNAIDS, the WHO and the International Labour Organisation (ILO).

Lecture summary: In this talk Sharifah Sekalala examines this critical moment in the making of Global Health Law, with two treaty making processes: the newly finalised revisions of the International Health Regulations and ongoing negotiations by the Intergovernmental Negotiation Body for a possible pandemic Accord or Instrument, as we well as soft-law proposals for the World Health Organization proposal for a medical countermeasures platform.The lecture will illustrate that despite the laudable objectives of creating a new system of international law that attempts to redress previous inequalities in accessing vaccines and countermeasures, they are unlikely to meet these broader objectives. The lecture will argue that this is because, despite being a public good, Global Health Law has always been underpinned by capitalist and post-colonial rationales which privilege trade. In order to make lasting changes, the current system of Global Health Law must focus on broader questions of ‘reparations' that will achieve greater equity.Sharifah is a Professor of Global Health Law at the University of Warwick and the Director of the Warwick Global Health Centre.

The international response to Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine remains inadequate to the task of achieving a full victory and often lags dangerously behind requirements. There is now a fear that the Western response is even inadequate to maintain an unhealthy status quo, and that Russia is now making advanced against a depleted and exhausted Ukraine. Meanwhile Western backers debate the war's likely endgame and its aftermath, without a clear sense of how Ukraine's allies can shape the outcome. In this context, John Lough of Chatham House has produced a timely analysis that examines Four scenarios for how the war in Ukraine will end. ---------- There are four possible outcomes for Russia's full-scale war on Ukraine: ‘long war', ‘frozen conflict', ‘victory for Ukraine' and ‘defeat for Ukraine'. Regardless of which scenario emerges, the far-reaching and traumatic sociological, economic and political impacts of the war will be inescapable.

This briefing paper was supported in part through a grant from the Open Society Foundations. ---------- John Lough is an associate fellow of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House and the Head of International at the New Eurasian Strategies Centre, a London-based think-tank. He studied German and Russian at Cambridge University and began his career as an analyst at the Soviet Studies (later Conflict Studies) Research Centre, focusing on Soviet/Russian security policy. He spent six years with NATO and was the first alliance representative to be based in Moscow (1995–98). He gained direct experience of the Russian oil and gas industry at TNK-BP as a manager in the company's international affairs team (2003–08). From 2008 to 2024, he worked in consultancy alongside his role with Chatham House.

Rwanda has endured a series of destabilizing moments that have shaped its complex history and relations with neighboring countries. Colonial rule set the stage for ethnic divisions that worsened under post-colonial governments, leading to the horrific 1994 Rwandan genocide. Following the genocide, Rwanda's rapid reconstruction transformed it into an economic success story. However, longstanding tensions with its neighbors, fueled by historical grievances and security concerns, continue to disrupt and challenge this image and drive instability and insecurity in the Great Lakes. Today, Rwanda's relations with neighboring countries remain fraught. Friction has led to periodic border closures with Uganda and Burundi, while Rwanda's military presence in eastern DRC has contributed to conflict escalation. Questions persist about how Rwanda and its neighbors can move beyond historical grievances and geopolitical struggles to foster lasting peace in the region.  In this episode, Mvemba is joined by retired General James Kabarebe, Rwanda's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs in charge of Regional Cooperation. General Kabarebe offers an inside perspective on the security challenges Rwanda faces with its neighbors. He addresses Rwanda's diplomatic and strategic stance, shedding light on the complexities of regional cooperation, and explores ways to navigate the tensions affecting Rwanda and its neighbors.  This event is made possible by the generous support of Open Society Foundations.

Have you ever wondered why so many Evangelicals are starting to drift to the left? There's a good reason. Daily Wire journalist Megan Basham's new book uncovers the infiltration of conservative Evangelical churches by far-left billionaires like George Soros and Pierre Omidyar, the founder of eBay. Since around 2013 there's been a concerted effort to essentially buy off pastors through opportunities or large amounts of funding if they support left-leaning causes like climate change and abortion. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Basham talks about the research for her book, "Shepherds For Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda." Back in 2013 the likes of Soros and others saw religious voters as the one huge impediment to advancing their vision of America. Organizations like Soros' "Open Society Foundation" learned how to use the language of faith in order to lure pastors and their congregations to look more favorably toward a wide range of issues from the environment to gender ideology. Basham says, "They talked about how they could harness the power of high-profile Evangelical leaders in the hopes of influencing the rank and file in the pews." Learn more about your ad choices.

A Shoá, o Holocausto, não apenas moldou a compreensão do genocídio e da opressão, mas também pode servir como ponto de partida para discussões sobre regimes autoritários na América Latina. Utilizar o estudo do Holocausto como uma forma de abordar questões sociais pode ser vital para educar novas gerações sobre a importância da memória histórica e a defesa dos direitos humanos, além de auxiliar na análise de outros eventos traumáticos, incluindo as ditaduras militares do Cone Sul. Quem traz perspectivas sobre esse tema hoje é a nossa convidada, Julia Amaral, Doutoranda em História Social pelo PPGHIS/UFRJ. Faz parte do Núcleo Interdisciplinar de Estudos Judaicos (NIEJ/UFRJ), do Núcleo Anne Frank de Minas Gerais, coordenou o Laboratório Estudos Judaicos: Novas abordagens, do IBI no Campus, vinculada ao NIEJ e à Open Society Foundation.

Until recently George Soros has been a mystery to most Americans. But he hasn't always been the diabolical globalist that he seems to have become in recent years. A Hungarian born holocaust survivor, his philanthropy was very focused on exposing former eastern block society to the ideas of the west. He has funded scholarships and numerous other western initiatives. It's not been until recently that his foundation has become focused on ideas more antithetical to the west. His tool of choice is his Open Society Foundation.

She is well-known for her historical work on left-wing politics, especially the post-war British left, and for her intellectual biography of Raphael Samuel entitled The Histories of Raphael Samuel - A Portrait of A People's Historian (2017). In this episode, we first talk about the history of European political thought, how old it is, and how it changed with the advent of modernism. We discuss the origins of “left-wing” and “right-wing”, and why these terms are problematic. We talk about the main tenets of anarchism as a political ideology, and focus on the topics of liberty and whether society needs hierarchy. We discuss the relationship between history and politics. Finally, we discuss some of the issues with Steven Pinker's take on the Enlightenment and progressivism. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

It's Tuesday, July 23rd, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Hindus are beating up Christians in India Last month, on June 12th, a mob of vigilantes in Chhattisgarh, India knocked two Christians unconscious while three others were hospitalized with severe injuries, reports Open Doors. Before the mob banished Christian families from the village, the believers were forced into signing a statement that declared if they returned to the village, they would have to convert to Hinduism within 10 days. This coercion took place in the presence of and with the cooperation of local authorities. The Christians have now fled the village fearing that if they return they will be killed since they have no plans to renounce Jesus Christ as their Savior. In addition, on July 13th, a mob of more than 50 Hindu activists attacked a gathering of Christians organized by a local church in central India, reports International Christian Concern. Members of the mob beat those in attendance, including a 60-year-old woman who was punched in the face. Her face swelled up for more than three days. The Clintons, 16 governors, and 33 senators endorsed Kamala After President Joe Biden backed out of the 2024 presidential race, Bill and Hillary Clinton, 16 state governors, and 33 senators have thus far endorsed Kamala Harris for the Democrat Party nomination. Alexander Soros, the son of the well-known billionaire George Soros, and the Chair of Open Society Foundations, also endorsed Kamala Harris on X. He tweeted, “It's time for us all to unite around Kamala Harris and beat Donald Trump. She is the best and most qualified candidate we have. Long live the American Dream!”    According to Breitbart, Alexander Soros has visited the Biden White House 17 times.  However, holding off on endorsements are former President Barack Obama and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York.  But Job said, “The Lord makes nations great, and destroys them; He enlarges nations, and guides them. He takes away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the Earth, and makes them wander in a pathless wilderness. They grope in the dark without light, and He makes them stagger like a drunken man.” (Job 12:23-25) The financial shift from West to East World power is shifting from West to East The economic production of Russia, China, India, South Africa, and Brazil will grow from 16% of the total world economy in 1992 to an estimated 34% by the year 2028, reports GeoCapitalist.com.  Meanwhile, the Western G7 nations drop from 46% to 28% over the same time period. South America depending on China South America is moving towards more economic dependence upon China. Chinese trade with South America has increased from $18 billion in 2002 to $450 billion in 2022, reports The Economist. And China's trade with Brazil increased by more than a third in the first two months of the year, according to The Financial Times.  Venezuela: The economic disaster in South America Venezuela has become the worst economic disaster in South America. Since 2007, the country has been subjected to Marxist rule under President Hugo Chavez and his protégé' Nicolás Maduro. The nation's GDP fell from $316 billion to $114 billion since then. The nation will have an opportunity to elect another president this coming weekend, although doubts are high as to whether the current president will conduct fair elections. Venezuela has the lowest Gross Domestic Product per capita of South America — that's $8,500. Over 7 million people or 20% have fled the Marxist “paradise.” Proverbs 28:15 points out that ”Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a poor people.” America's $1.9 trillion deficit The Congressional Budget Office is projecting a $1.9 trillion deficit this year.  That's up $400 billion from what was originally estimated. And it's twice the average deficit spending under the 8-year-long Obama administration.   The average deficit spending under the Trump administration was $2.06 trillion per year.  The estimated average deficit spending per year under the Biden administration will be $1.75 trillion. By contrast, the average deficit spending under the Obama administration was only $817 billion per year. Rite Aid, Walgreens, and CVS shutter hundreds of pharmacies Since October, the pharmacy chain, Rite Aid, has closed 520 of its 2,111 stores.  And now, Walgreen's Chief Executive Tim Wentworth told the Wall Street Journal that his company plans to shutter approximately 2,100 stores, which amounts to about a quarter of its retail outlets. CVS has closed 600 stores since 2022, and plans another 300 closures this year. Coincidentally, CVS and Walgreens began selling the abortion pill over the counter in March of this year. Historic First Baptist Dallas sanctuary burned down The historic sanctuary of First Baptist Church of Dallas, pastored by outspoken Trump supporter Robert Jeffress, burned to the ground late last week in a four-alarm fire, reported Fox 4. An emotional Pastor Jeffress shared his thoughts. JEFFRESS: “This sanctuary has been around since 1890. It was the home for our church for a long time until we moved to our new Worship Center about 12 years ago. “This historic sanctuary was the site of many personal events, including my own. I was baptized there when I was six. I was ordained for the ministry when I was 21. It holds a lot of memories.” Pastor Jeffress was grateful that no one was hurt. JEFFRESS: “But we thank God that nobody has been hurt. We had just concluded Vacation Bible School with over 2,000 kids. They were all gone. So, God has protected us through all of this. “I'm grateful that the church is not bricks and mortar or wood. It's people and the people of God will endure. First Baptist Dallas will endure. And we thank so many of our friends around the country who are praying for us right now.” The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives sent investigators to assist in determining the cause of the fire which is still unknown. The newer worship center where the congregation meets is still intact thankfully.

While the girls were walking towards an ice cream truck outside their apartment complex they confronted the man who was forcibly removing a little girl by the wrist.  They recorded the abduction with their phone cameras, and then asked him if he knew the girl. The man indicated he did, but the 6-year-old disagreed. Police subsequently arrested the man, and, at last report, the 40-year-old male, Hayder Albu Mohammed, has been charged with second-degree attempted kidnapping.

President Bassirou Diomaye Faye is not only Senegal's youngest elected president but also the youngest democratically elected president in Africa. At 44- years old there is a lot of expectation resting on Faye and his mentor Ousmane Sonko as they take the reins after an election run-up that was nothing short of dramatic. Since 2021, protests against former president Macky Sall have left more than 60 people dead and hundreds of political activists jailed. Faye is expected to strengthen the eroded democratic institutions in Senegal that allowed Sall to attempt an unconstitutional bid to sustain his party's hold on the presidency and that built conditions to repress dissent in the country. Hawa Ba, Director of Core Partners in Open Society Foundations, joins Mvemba to share her impressions from the tumultuous election. As the only West African country that has not experienced a coup, Senegal is a beacon of hope that alternative forms of power and governance can be achieved through elections.
