Less than 24 hours after a lower court ruling on Wednesday found that President Trump had illegally used an emergency powers law to enact global tariffs, a federal appeals court paused that decision and allowed the tariffs to continue – for now, that is. The legal topsy-turvy added a fresh round of uncertainty for business owners like Leslie Jordan, who started a company in Portland nearly 40 years ago which manufactures athletic apparel and accessories made in factories in China and Pakistan.  In April, when President Trump enacted tariffs of 145% on goods made in China, Jordan had to pay nearly 200% in duties to get her products cleared through customs. She lost business as some orders got canceled and  scrambled to move production to factories in countries like Egypt and Vietnam, which face lower tariff rates than China. She also started getting emails from companies that offered their services to help her avoid high tariffs through illegal schemes, such as misclassifying the imported goods or shipping them through a different country.  Jordan recently shared her experiences with the New York Times in their investigation into the rise of trade fraud as a consequence of the tariffs. She joins us to share more details and how she thinks the federal government can more effectively crack down on tariff cheats.

Darrell Castle discusses the war between India and Pakistan which began over an apparent terrorist attack in the disputed territory of Kashmir a few weeks ago. He alleges that the real winner in the war so far has been China. Transcription / Notes: WHO WON THE INDIA-PAKISTAN WAR Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 30th day of May in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the war between India and Pakistan which began over an apparent terrorist attack in the disputed territory of Kashmir a few weeks ago. Yes, rather than hide or delay the lead I will tell you right away that there is no real winer as yet but in the initial battle the winner was China and in this report I will attempt to defend that view. First, to set up my argument it will be necessary to review a little history. It is often said that generals fight the last war and in many respects I believe that to be an accurate assessment. For example, coming out of WWl the navies of the world viewed the battleship as the future of naval warfare because it had proven so decisive in the naval battles of that war. The air arm of the navy didn't begin until the 1920's and that was just a primitive experiment. In the 1930's seagoing nations started to develop aircraft and aircraft carriers and to experiment with them but the battleship was still expected to dominate the next naval war. Even the Japanese put their effort into battleships including the Yamato, the world's largest. When the war started with the attack on Pearl Harbor and then the battle of the Coral Sea and Midway it was soon obvious that aircraft carriers were the future, not battleships. The U.S. had three carriers in the Pacific after Pearl Harbor and the Yorktown was lost at Midway June 4, 1942, but within 2 years they had 17. When the war ended and the U.S. had the world's money so it could buy anything it continued to put its effort into the ships that won the war in the Pacific. When nuclear power entered the navy the cost of an aircraft carrier continued to skyrocket until today it exceeds $13 billion. Only one nation can afford to build and equip 13 of those ships and as a result the U.S. Navy has dominated the seas since WWll. Other nations such as China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran had to find some cheaper way to keep up and they did. While the U.S. was building $13 billion aircraft carriers to project power around the world those nations devoted their resources to building relatively cheap missiles to counter them. My theory then is that the aircraft carrier, like the battleship before it, has had its day and the future of warfare will be robotic, ai generated, and probably in space. With that background we look at what is happening in one of the most dangerous corners of the world today and that is Kashmir where the borders of Pakistan, India and China converge. The immediate cause of the outbreak of war was a terrorist attack on April 22 that killed 26 Indians. People get really upset when they are attacked by terrorists and they demand that their nation's government do something. The Indians did do something and that resulted in one of the most interesting air battles since WWll. During the battle of the Coral Sea in 1942 the U.S. and Japanese navies fought a battle in which each side had ships sunk but the opposing ships didn't even see each other. The battle was entirely between carrier-based aircraft from about 200 miles apart. The Indians and Pakistanis engaged in an air battle using the latest fighter aircraft in their inventories and the interesting thing is that the entire battle was fought in what pilots call BVR or beyond visual range combat. BVR is completely different from the air combat maneuvering and the dogfighting videos we see from WWll. It pits aircraft, their radars, and guided missiles against each other at extremely long ranges. Each aircraft tries to acquire radar lock on his opponent befor...

Le Sahara occidental, territoire considéré comme non-autonome par l'ONU, situé au sud du Maroc et au nord de la Mauritanie, est au cœur de la route migratoire dite « de l'Atlantique ». Sa plus grande ville, Laâyoune, est situé à 90 km seulement des îles Canaries. En 2024, plus de 46 000 migrants irréguliers ont débarqué sur l'archipel espagnol, un record historique. Le nombre d'arrivées aux îles Canaries a augmenté de 17% entre 2023 et 2024. Si les autorités marocaines tentent de contrôler les flux irréguliers, la région reste une zone de départ importante pour les migrants, principalement en provenance d'Afrique subsaharienne, mais aussi de pays plus lointains comme le Pakistan ou la Syrie. Reportage à Laâyoune, de François Hume-Ferkatadji. De notre envoyé spécial à LaâyouneLe désert, puis l'océan. Dans les environs de Laâyoune, le trait de côte se résume à cette simple barrière naturelle. Il n'est pas difficile d'y faire partir un bateau pneumatique à moteur. Si le trajet pour rejoindre les îles Canaries peut durer près d'un mois au départ du Sénégal ou de la Mauritanie, il faut compter seulement 9 à 10 heures au départ de Laâyoune. « Le Maroc a installé des postes de surveillance, tous les deux kilomètres. Parfois, on tombe sur un poste de surveillance, mais malgré ces installations, les mafias arrivent à faire le passage, parce qu'elles possèdent maintenant des matériaux spécifiques », explique Taghia Abdelkebir, président de l'association Sakia El Hamra pour la Migration et le Développement.Les mafias organisent des arrivées de nuit, dans des convois chargés de candidats au départ, pour déjouer la vigilance des autorités, selon cet homme d'Afrique de l'Ouest, résident de Laâyoune, en contact régulier avec les migrants.« Quand les membres des mafias voient que la marée est basse, ils font une descente ici, et ils empruntent des camionnettes. Ils ne font ça que la nuit. Dans une Jeep, par exemple, ils peuvent mettre plus de 50 à 60 personnes. Puis, ils roulent de nuit pour entrer dans la ville », raconte-t-il. Le coût d'une traversée est estimé entre 4 000 et 6 000 euros par personne. Les migrants économisent parfois des années pour la tenter. « La plupart de ceux qui arrivent ici n'ont qu'un seul objectif, c'est de passer par les îles Canaries, traverser l'eau et rejoindre l'Europe », continue-t-il. Pourtant, la route Atlantique est extrêmement dangereuse. Selon l'ONG espagnole Caminando Fronteras, plus de 10 400 personnes ont perdu la vie en 2024, dont plus d'un millier au départ du Maroc.« Quand les gens arrivent à pouvoir traverser, ils envoient des photos, en s'exclamant "bozafri, bozafri !", ce qui signifie qu'ils sont arrivés de l'autre côté. Mais ce n'est pas toujours le cas. Les photos des morts, de ceux refoulés par la mer, sont vraiment choquantes. On peut y voir, 50, 60 personnes décédées », se désole notre témoin. Si environ 6 000 migrants ont pu trouver du travail et s'installer durablement plus au sud à Dakhla, les autorités marocaines mènent régulièrement des opérations de refoulement à Laâyoune dans le but d'endiguer les départs, en collaboration avec les autorités espagnoles.

In this fiery May 29 edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Alpha Warrior unpack the fallout from President Trump's explosive video response to the Biden classified documents scandal, dismantling the media's narrative one contradiction at a time. They dissect the strategic timing of Trump's messaging, the damning details in the Robert Hur transcript, and the broader implications of a president too impaired to face charges, yet somehow competent enough to wield executive power. The duo takes aim at the auto-pen controversy and the emerging reality that Biden may have never read, let alone authored, many of the executive orders attributed to him. From pardons and proclamations to global power plays, the episode paints a picture of a regime crumbling under the weight of its own lies. They also cover Project 2025 hysteria, Israel's internal chaos, and Trump's global influence, including his cultural and political relevance in places like Pakistan. Toss in some humor, mockery of media meltdowns, and Alpha Warrior's trademark fire, and you've got a fast-paced breakdown of the unraveling narrative, and the movement poised to replace it.

“Hollywood is about as left and progressive a community as there is in this country. And unfortunately, part of the box you have to check in that very left, super progressive space is being anti-Israel and being pro-Palestine in an anti-Israel way,” says Jonah Platt.Platt is a jack of all trades in the entertainment industry—an actor, director, producer, and singer. In the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of Israelis led by terrorist group Hamas, he launched the podcast “Being Jewish.”He recently visited Auschwitz, the largest German death camp, alongside over a dozen Muslims. He went with the organization Sharaka, which builds on the work of the Abraham Accords and educates Middle Easterners and other Arabs and Muslims around the world about the Holocaust.“Some of these people came on this trip at great personal risk. If you're coming from Pakistan to hang out with Jews in the middle of this Israel-Gaza war, I mean, you could be in real, physical danger. Some people—they couldn't be in any photos and their identities had to be kept secret to protect them,” says Platt. “There were Jewish slaves [at Auschwitz], working out in that kind of rain in threadbare pajamas, starving to death, and having to do physical labor and be shot if they didn't keep up. And meanwhile, I'm freezing in the cold, but I get to go on a warm bus and get a hot meal after this.”In this episode, we discuss how to navigate being Jewish and Zionist in a society that is becoming increasingly hostile to Israel.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.***Disclaimer: One of the producers for American Thought Leaders participated in the Sharaka program to Poland on an all-expenses paid trip.

Bible information and education is plentiful here in America. However, that's not the case in other parts of the world. Our plenty often blinds us to this reality and as such, we don't see the harvest that's before us, especially in nations such as Pakistan. Islam is the official state religion there and according to the 2017 census, 96.5% of Pakistanis identify as Muslim so the need for God's Word there is as great as ever. Joining Jim to discuss this issue live from Pakistan was Pastor Shahid Kaleem. He's founder and chairman of Christian Literature & Translation Ministry in Pakistan. He's been partnering for several years with Bible Tracts, Inc. for effective ministry of Bible tract and Bible distribution ministry in Pakistan.

Nous sommes dans les années 327-325 avant notre ère. Alexandre le Grand, roi de Macédoine, lance une campagne dans le sous-continent indien). Cette campagne a pour objectif principal de soumettre le Pendjab du roi Poros. Alexandre conquiert ensuite la vallée de l'Indus pour finir par atteindre les rives de l'océan Indien et entamer le retour vers Babylone où il meurt en juin 323. Les cités de Begram et de Taxila témoignent de cette présence grecque dans le monde indien. La première, aujourd'hui en Afghanistan, est l'héritière de l'Alexandrie du Caucase fondée par celui qui fut l'élève d'Aristote et est devenu l'un des plus grands conquérants de l'histoire en prenant possession de l'immense Empire perse en s'avançant jusqu'aux rives de l'Indus. La seconde, au Pakistan actuel, la plus ancienne fut créée avant l'arrivée des Perses. Alexandre y a séjourné et l'un de ses successeurs dans la région, le roi Démétrios Ier, y a fait construire un grand quartier hellénistique.

Did you know that up to the Partition of India in 1947, Kashmiri Muslims lived in conditions that very much resembled serfdom? Exploitation of Kashmiri Muslims was particularly notable during the Dogra Dynasty, which ruled the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir from 1846 to 1947.Since their partition in 1947, India and Pakistan have fought four wars: in 1947, 1965, 1971 and 1999. Based on research and information, three of these wars were specifically about the Kashmir region. In this interview, I bring historical perspective to conflicts and crises about Kashmir by asking my guest scholar the following questions: ►Is Jammu and Kashmir different than Kashmir?►Who are Kashmiris?►Why did Persian missionaries visit Kashmir?►What happened to Kashmir after the Mughal Empire?►What does it mean that Kashmir was a princely state?►Did the British introduce a more egalitarian system in Kashmir? If so, why?►Why Kashmir was an autonomous region under British rule and until recently in the Republic of India?►Why is Kashmir called the Indian Administered Kashmir?►How did Kashmir become a part of India?►What was the Kashmir massacre that happened in 1947?►How are Kashmiris 'othered' in India?►What is it about Kashmir that makes it different from all other Indian states?►Is Kashmir an integral part of India?►Would my guest scholar be able to freely talk about Kashmir's history in India?

Highlights from our conversation with Founder and Publisher of Kokila, Namrata Tripathi:   The power of celebrating not just our communal work, but also ourselves Voice as an essential point of view with no illusion of neutrality How cheap workarounds subvert the hard work of uncovering our own voice  The power of words like “intuition” (despite how it may come off as fluffy or weak) Supporting writers in identifying who they are actually in conversation with on the page The lifelong work of knowing how to be more honest with ourselves and the world The priceless bit of publishing wisdom a former boss shared How Kokila's intentional approach to each facet of publishing is intrinsically tied to the books they put out into the world.   Namrata Tripathi is Founder and Publisher of Kokila. Previously, Namrata held editorial positions at HarperCollins, Disney-Hyperion, and Simon and Schuster. She is the editor of New York Times bestsellers Hair Love by Matthew A.

The headlines of the day by The Indian ExpressThis is the Catch up on 3 Things by the Indian Express and I am Ichha SharmaToday is the 27th of May and here are today's headlinesFor the first time, Operation Sindoor — the military strike launched by India earlier this month against terror targets in Pakistan — employed the concept of “red teaming” as part of its operational planning, The Indian Express has learnt. Red teaming involves embedding a small group of experts familiar with the adversary's mindset, tactics and response patterns into the planning process. Their role is to critically challenge the plan, simulate enemy reactions, and help test the robustness of the intended military strategy. According to sources, this is the first time the Indian military has tested this concept in an actual operation, marking a shift in India's strategic doctrine, bringing in a more dynamic and anticipatory approach to such cross-border operations.The Supreme Court Tuesday issued notice to the Centre and states on a petition challenging the Waqf Act, 1995. A bench of Chief Justice of India B R Gavai and Justice A G Masih issued the notice on the plea by Delhi resident Nikhil Upadhyay, and tagged it with a similar petition by Advocate Hari Shankar Jain and another person. Hearing writ petitions challenging the recent amendments made to the Waqf Act, the bench of Chief Justice of India B R Gavai and Justice Masih had earlier asked why the 1995 Act is being challenged now after so many years.The India Meteorological Department (IMD) Tuesday placed Maharashtra's Sindhudurg and Ratnagiri districts under ‘red' alert for the next 24 hours, while Raigad has been kept under an ‘orange' alert. While the ‘red' alert in Mumbai comes to an end today morning, generally cloudy skies, moderate spell of rainfall, accompanied by thunder, lightning, and gusty winds at isolated places will continue throughout the day. In the past 24 hours, the IMD's observatories at Mumbai's Colaba and Santacruz recorded 161.9 mm and 144.2 mm of rainfall – highest 24 hours rainfall recorded since 2021 during the month of May, and second highest in the past decade. According to the BMC, Mumbai's island city recorded 106 mm of rainfall, followed by 72 mm at western suburbs and 63 mm in the eastern suburbs.Even as the Indian Navy and Coast Guard race to contain any oil spill from the MSC Elsa 3 container ship, which sank Sunday, marine biology experts said that authorities must try to contain as much oil and pollution as possible offshore, as onshore clean-up has limitations—especially during the monsoon season. Meanwhile, teams of scientists from the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI), under the Agriculture Ministry, have fanned out across three locations on Kerala's coast to collect water and sediment samples to examine onshore impacts.A mass shooting was reported in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park on Monday night which left at least two people dead and nine others wounded, reports stated.

In honor of the Memorial Day holiday, we're once again re-airing an interview we did back in 2017 with retired Admiral William “Bill” McRaven. If Bill's name sounds familiar, it's because he presided over the 2011 Navy SEAL raid that resulted in the killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. A few years later in 2014, the four-star admiral and 37-year Navy SEAL veteran delivered the commencement speech at his alma mater, the University of Texas at Austin. Little did McRaven know that his address, which spoke to how students could overcome challenges and change themselves, would become a viral hit with 20 million views online. McRaven was eventually encouraged to expand his commencement speech into a book, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life…And Maybe the World. Have a money question?

My guest today, Zia Mian is co-director of Princeton University's Program on Science and Global Security. He's a physicist who has long studied nuclear weapons and nuclear security. In our conversation Zia Mian explains how scientists have impacted policy discussions about nuclear weapons since the dawn of the nuclear age, and how as the nuclear security landscape is evolving--and as science is advancing, scientists can continue to contribute to our understanding of the effects of a nuclear war.  In addition to his perch at Princeton, Zia Mian serves as Co-Chair of the Scientific Advisory Group of the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. This is the first first international scientific body created by a United Nations treaty process for the purpose of advancing nuclear disarmament and in our conversation he explains how the work of scientists can contribute to a nuclear free world.  We kick off, however, discussing the recent conflict between India and Pakistan and what this conflict says about the role of nuclear weapons in international security today.  We recorded this conversation in conjunction with the Carnegie International Nuclear Policy Conference.

Israeli air strike on Gaza school kills over 20 Palestinians "At least 20 Palestinians were killed and dozens were wounded after an Israeli air strike hit a Gaza school sheltering displaced families, local officials say. Women and children were among the victims, with some bodies severely burned. Israel's genocidal war, now in its five-hundred-ninety-seventh day, has claimed over fifty-three-thousand-nine-hundred Palestinian lives, with more than eleven-thousand still missing under the rubble. Global outrage is growing as humanitarian conditions for Palestinians worsen due to the Israeli blockade. Meanwhile, Israel's Defence Ministry has overspent its war budget by four-point-seventeen billion dollars, sparking heated tensions with the Finance Ministry, which warns the gap may reach $7 billion. " Putin has gone absolutely crazy after Ukraine attack: Trump "US President Donald Trump has fiercely condemned his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, saying he's “gone absolutely crazy” after Moscow's massive weekend missile attack on Ukraine. Trump accused Putin of deliberately killing civilians and warned that trying to seize all of Ukraine could trigger Russia's downfall. While distancing himself from the conflict, Trump calls this conflict “Zelenskyy's, Putin's, and Biden's war.” The latest Russian assault is recorded as one of the largest strikes since the Russia-Ukraine conflict began three years ago." US delays EU tariffs while negotiating trade terms "US President Donald Trump has agreed to delay a looming 50 percent tariff on EU goods until July 9, following talks with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Trump called the extension a ""privilege,"" while von der Leyen pledged swift, decisive negotiations to secure a fair deal. The move signals a temporary thaw in US-EU trade tensions, although key disputes over tariffs and regulations still loom, calming jittery global markets for now." Pakistan channels surplus power into bitcoin mining "In a bold tech-forward move, Pakistan will channel 2,000 megawatts of surplus electricity to bitcoin mining and AI data centres, the finance ministry announced. Spearheaded by the Pakistan Crypto Council, the initiative aims to harness excess power, boost high-tech employment, and attract global investment. Amid rising tariffs and a solar surge, the plan marks phase one of a sweeping digital infrastructure rollout designed to monetise idle energy and reshape the nation's tech landscape." Fenerbahce Beko win their second EuroLeague title "Turkish basketball club Fenerbahce Beko claims their second Turkish Airlines EuroLeague title, beating AS Monaco 81-70 in a thrilling final. The Istanbul giants dazzled with sharp shooting and relentless defence, led by standout performances from Nigel Hayes and Marko Guduric. Under coach Sarunas Jasikevicius's strategic guidance, Fenerbahce sealed a historic win, becoming the only Turkish club with multiple EuroLeague crowns."

On April 22, militants launched a brutal assault on a tourist site in Indian-controlled Kashmir, killing 26 civilians in what became the deadliest terrorist attack in India in nearly 15 years. What followed was the most intense military confrontation between India and Pakistan in decades—airstrikes, drone attacks, and a terrifying cycle of escalation that threatened to spiral out of control. Then, suddenly, came a ceasefire on May 10. But why? And will it hold? In today's episode, I speak with Debak Das, Assistant Professor at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver, to unpack the deeper roots of the Kashmir dispute and why it remains such a dangerous flashpoint between two nuclear-armed rivals. We explore how this crisis escalated so quickly—and why it stopped just short of the brink. Debak also offers sharp insight into the precariousness of the current ceasefire and what might come next.
