Ultimele schimbări de pe scena politică internațională fac tot mai evidentă ruptura dintre Statele Unite ale Americii și țările europene. Amenințările privind anexarea Groenlandei, arestarea președintelui Venezuelei și declarațiile acide ale liderului de la Washington, Donald Trump, i-au determinat pe liderii europeni să caute soluții pentru consolidarea puterii și autonomiei continentului.În acest context tensionat, declarațiile politicienilor români par în continuare ambigue, necoordonate și prudente. Însă, mai devreme sau mai târziu, România ar putea fi pusă în fața unei alegeri clare.În acest episod din „Politică la minut by Recorder”, Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu analizează taberele care se conturează în societate și discută care ar fi cea mai potrivită direcție pentru România.Invitat: politologul Marius Ghincea, despre consensul de la Snagov și momentul în care România a ales calea transatlantică.#recorder #politicalaminut #politicaexterna

Milyen jövőkép látszik a kanadai miniszterelnök és az amerikai elnök davosi beszédéből? És Volodimir Zelenszkijéből, aki szintén felszólalt Svájcban? Lehet-e még mélyebben a magyar–ukrán viszony? Mennyire vehető komolyan a magyar kormánypropaganda legújabb mumusa, a Politicón megszellőztetett 5 pontos terv Ukrajna EU-csatlakozására? Ezekről beszélget a HetiVálasz februári szerkesztőségi külpolitikai adásában Ablonczy Bálint, Magyari Péter és Vörös Szabolcs.

Good Politic Guy (aka Mac) joins the show to talk about the horrors of the latest Epstein files release, how Trump could rig 2026, and the AI white collar apocalypse.

De trei ani, Serviciul Român de Informații funcționează fără un director permanent. Lucian Pahonțu conduce Serviciul de Protecție și Pază de 21 de ani. Gabriel Vlase a mers la Formula 1 „în interes de serviciu”, în plină criză generată de interferențele rusești în alegerile prezidențiale din România. Toate acestea se întâmplă în timp ce România alocă serviciilor secrete bugete uriașe, chiar și în perioade de austeritate.În contextul noilor numiri la conducerea serviciilor de informații, anunțate de președintele Nicușor Dan, Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu analizează mecanismele democratice prin care pot fi controlate serviciile secrete și motivele pentru care acestea nu sunt aplicate în România.Invitată: Emilia Șercan, despre legătura dintre plagiatele academice și infiltrarea serviciilor în politică.Surse: Zulean, M.

Care sînt preocupările și așteptările românilor din diaspora cu privire la propriile lor vieți și la viitorul țării din care au plecat? Ce i-a motivat să facă o alegere politică sau alta? Cîte feluri de diaspora avem? Ce-i unește, pînă la urmă, pe oameni atît de diferiți? Cîteva răspunsuri aflăm în studiul „Diaspora neascultată”, realizat de sociologul Barbu Mateescu și publicat de Fundația Konrad Adenauer. „În diaspora, indiferent de opțiunea de vot exprimată în turul al doilea al alegerilor prezidențiale din 2025, antipatia față de politicieni este puternică” – este una dintre concluziile studiului. Invitaţii noştri sînt sociologul Bogdan Iancu şi, din Italia, Miruna Căjvăneanu, jurnalistă, absolventă de științe politice, autoare a unor studii despre diaspora, membră în Consiliul pentru o bună conviețuire din cadrul Zonei Metropolitane - Roma, unde este responsabilă de participare civică și votul cetățenilor europeni. Miruna Căjvăneanu: „Trăiesc în Italia din 1999 şi am văzut o diaspora, o a doua Românie, cum îmi place s-o numesc, care s-a schimbat. A devenit din ce în ce mai conştientă de sine. Iată, în Italia, sîntem deja la a treia generaţie de români. Sînt mulţi români născuţi aici, care au o identitate dublă sau chiar triplă: se simt deopotrivă români şi italieni şi au un sentiment puternic de cetăţenie europeană. Vorbim despre diaspora occidentală. Avem şi diaspora din Statele Unite, din alte ţări – este un puzzle foarte dinamic, foarte bogat, care ar trebui să ne bucure pentru că ne dă o imagine mai bogată a ţării. Cred că este reciproc avantajos să ne considerăm şi parte a României dar şi un motor care poate ajuta România să meargă mai departe. (...) Se spune în România că cei din diaspora nu sînt la curent cu ce se întîmplă în ţară. Dar am putut constata că românii din diaspora, mă refer şi la cei din Italia, pe care-i cunosc, ţin să fie informaţi cu privire la ce se petrece în ţară, vin deseori în ţară, se informează şi participă destul de implicat şi în cunoştinţă de cauză la ceea ce se întîmplă în ţară.”Ce ar trebui să facă statul român pentru diversele comunităţi de români din diaspora? Cu ce ar trebui să înceapă pentru ca românii din diaspora să se simtă ascultaţi?Bogdan Iancu: „Cred că, în primul rînd, ar trebui să o cunoască. Să-și dorească să o cunoască. Şi să răspundă felurilor în care se creează cunoaștere despre această diaspora și altfel decît prin confirmarea temelor care se declină de foarte multe ori în acest apel la tradiții, care adesea e un răspuns la un prezent care nu ne împlinește, nu? Ce societăți au nevoie să elogieze aproape religios trecutul istoric chiar și atunci cînd el a fost problematic? Societăți care nu trăiesc un prezent confortabil. Prin urmare, ar trebui să răspundă motivelor pentru care persoanele astea au abandonat România. (...) Oamenii au nevoie de acces la servicii de educație și de sănătate mai bune și acces la servicii sau birocraţie mult simplificată. (...) Eu mă întreb de ce nu avem un institut de cercetare a migrației și a diasporei românești, la proporţia pe care o are. Nu avem un muzeu. Avem 35 de ani de experiențe de absolut toate felurile, de la migrație sezonieră, white collar, pendulară...  România pur și simplu a răspuns unor dinamici sociale prin absolut toate tipurile de migrație care pot fi imaginate. Ar trebui să avem măcar o instituție care să producă cunoaștere și să o reprezinte.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral! O emisiune de Adela Greceanu și Matei Martin Un produs Radio România Cultural 

Cele mai importante știri ale zilei, alese de Recorder și grupate într-un newsletter audio. În fiecare seară, de luni până vineri.

Will Evans este fondatorul uneia dintre cele mai importante edituri americane care se concentrează pe traduceri. În Statele Unite ale Americii, se publică în măsură covîrșitoare autori de limba engleză. Piața editorială americană este dominată de cîteva edituri cu sediul la New York, în Manhattan. Will Evans a înființat Deep Vellum în 2013, la Dallas, Texas, tocmai pentru a-i publica pe cei subestimați de editurile din capitala culturală a Americii. Așa au apărut în SUA cărți de Andrei Kurkov, Mihail Șișkin, Mircea Cărtărescu, Tatiana Țîbuleac, Magda Cârneci. Will Evans a venit la București pentru cîteva întîlniri precum și pentru lansarea ediției în limba engleză a romanului „Vara în care mama a avut ochii verzi” de Tatiana Țîbuleac, apărută la Deep Vellum, în traducerea Monicăi Cure.Adela Greceanu  a stat de vorbă cu Will Evans despre piața editorială americană și editura Deep Vellum, fondată ca răspuns la monopolul reprezentat de cele cinci mari edituri newyorkeze, despre scriitorii români pe care îi are în portofoliu, despre puterea traducerilor literare de a crea punți. Will Evans: „Credem că fiecare persoană este un cititor și merită să facă parte din viața literară, intelectuală. Dar, prea des, modul în care sînt organizate interesele corporatiste în țara noastră a făcut ca majoritatea oamenilor să fie excluși. Sînt făcuți să creadă asta: cărțile sînt doar pentru oamenii bogați sau pentru cei care merg la universitate, dar chiar nu este cazul. Trebuie să ne asigurăm că aceste cărți sînt o parte activă a implicării tuturor în societatea noastră. (...) Nu ar trebui să fie așa, dar în Statele Unite este considerat un act politic să faci cărți traduse. Vorbim despre literatura română. Ce știu americanii despre România? Ce știu americanii despre Rusia, Ucraina, Israel, Palestina sau Mexic? Nu știm nimic despre vecinii noștri, darămite despre restul lumii, iar traducerea este o parte importantă a acestui lucru. Cultura americană are o istorie și o tendință de a nu interacționa cu restul lumii, unde exportăm cultură. Noi nu importăm multă cultură la scară largă. Și acest dialog dintre America și restul lumii și dintre american și cetățeanul lumii, este ceva de care avem multă nevoie. Așa că a traduce cărți în engleză este un act politic: de a aduce americanii în dialog cu restul lumii, astfel încît să nu se mai uite la lume ca la un străin, să nu-i dezumanizeze pe străini, ci să se poată vedea reflectați în străin și să realizeze că internaționalul ne include, diversitatea ne include și că nu putem face nimic singuri.” Despre Tatiana Țîbuleac spune că este o autoare care se potrivește foarte bine cu profilul editurii Deep Vellum. Will Evans: „Peste jumătate din lista noastră de traduceri, peste jumătate din lista noastră în general, sînt cărți scrise de femei. Asta a fost întotdeauna o piatră de temelie pentru ceea ce face Deep Vellum, pentru că, atunci cînd am început, doar un sfert dintre cărțile care apăreau în baza de date a traducerilor (din SUA), erau scrise de femei. Noi ne dorim să fie cel puțin jumătate - un obiectiv ușor de atins. Așa că Tatiana se potrivește foarte bine. Noi spunem despre «Vara în care mama a avut ochii verzi» că este un fel de «De veghe în lanul de secară» european. E un incredibil roman de voce despre maturizare și are ceva unic.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta întregul interviu!O emisiune de Adela GreceanuUn produs Radio România Cultural

Care sînt consecințele – pentru Statele Unite ale Americii dar și la nivel mondial – ale primelor măsuri luate de președintele american în 2026? În 3 ianuarie, forțele speciale americane l-au capturat pe președintele Venezuelei, Nicolas Maduro. În 7 ianuarie, Donald Trump a retras SUA din peste 60 de organizații internaționale. Şi tot la începutul anului, Donald Trump a reluat ideea că SUA au nevoie de Groenlanda din motive de securitate națională. Despre toate acestea vorbim cu politologii Vlad Adamescu şi Răzvan Petri, fondatorii platformei „Politică la minut”.  Vlad Adamescu: „Preşedinţii americani au de obicei o fereastră de oportunitate: primii doi ani din mandat, adică pînă la midterms (alegerile de la jumătatea mandatului), alegerile pentru Congresul american – care vor avea loc în noiembrie anul acesta, în SUA. Aceea este perioada de putere maximă, în care de obicei au şi Camera Reprezentanţilor, şi Senatul şi pot să-şi îndeplinească agenda. Trump a fost un preşedinte cu un neobişnuit succes în a-şi îndeplini propria agendă. Vedem acel Project 2025, care se spunea că este agenda lui politică. S-a dovedit că era agenda lui politică şi a reuşit să îndeplinească o majoritate covîrşitoare a lucrurilor care erau scrise acolo. Vedem mici victorii ale opoziţiei, ale democraţilor, mai ales ale opoziţiei mai de stînga, acei democraţi socialişti din jurul lui Bernie Sanders, zona Mamdani – s-a tot discutat şi în România despre victoria sa la New York, dar acolo oricum cîştigau democraţii. Vedem însă o opoziţie slabă în general, care n-a putut să se organizeze. Democraţii, chiar dacă o să cîştige – pentru că de obicei partidul de opoziţie cîştigă midterms –, par în continuare paralizaţi şi nu prea ştiu unde să meargă, nu prea văd care sînt liderii potenţiali pentru a conduce partidul la victorie în alegerile din 2028. Poate guvernatorul Californiei, Gavin Newsome.” Pînă nu de mult trăiam într-o lume pe care mulți au numit-o „sfîrșitul istoriei”, în care liberalismul a cîștigat, într-o lume globalizată a organizațiilor, a cooperării internaționale. Ce s-a schimbat odată cu revenirea lui Trump la Casa Albă, odată cu acest fenomen MAGA? Care sunt punctele de divergență între viziunea lui asupra Americii și cele peste 60 de organizații și tratate internaționale pe care le-a abandonat acum?Răzvan Petri: „Asta e o dezbatere foarte interesantă pentru că într-adevăr, pînă nu de mult trăiam în „sfîrșitul istoriei” al lui Fukuyama, pe care l-a declarat în anii ʼ90. El spunea că am ajuns la apogeul evoluției acestui sistem și că liberalismul și ordinea bazată pe reguli au cîștigat și vor domina relațiile internaționale pentru un viitor previzibil. Ceea ce se întîmplă astăzi este, evident, decesul acestei ordini. Deces cumva anunțat odată cu alegerea lui Donald Trump, pentru că știam ce va face mișcarea MAGA odată ce va ajunge din nou la putere. Ceea ce este diferit este că nu știm care este noua ordine. Mulți spun că ne-am întors undeva pe la 1700-1800, la ordinea în care domină realismul în relațiile internaționale, balansul și contrabalansul de putere. Might is right, cum se spune, dreptatea e a celui puternic. Eu sînt de acord mai degrabă cu o abordare care vine dinspre doi profesori americani, Goddard și Newman, care spun că ne aflăm într-o ordine neoregalistă. Pentru că Donald Trump nu urmărește neapărat interesul național american, ci mai degrabă interesul clicii sale. Ei ne explică acțiunile administrației Trump printr-o logică de clică care relaționează cu alte clici, cu alți oameni pe care ei îi văd puternici, care ignoră statele și suverenitatea națională, și care vor nu numai să domine politic, dar vor și să cîștige material de pe urma tranzacțiilor internaționale.  Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta întreaga discuţie!O emisiune de Adela Greceanu și Matei Martin Un produs Radio România Cultural 

La 36 de ani de la Revoluție, România s-a schimbat radical. Am intrat în UE și NATO, economia a crescut, iar instituțiile democrației s-au consolidat. În același timp, exodul masiv, regiunile subdezvoltate și sărăcia rămân o realitate îngrijorătoare pentru țara noastră. Inegalitățile economice și neajunsurile i-au făcut pe unii români să spună că în comunism România o ducea mai bine.În acest episod din Politica la minut by Recorder, Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri analizează efectele tranziției de la comunism la democrație și modul în care acestea se reflectă în opțiunile de vot din prezent.„Politică la minut by Recorder” e un podcast în care Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu îți aduc explicații clare și accesibile despre funcționarea sistemelor politice, analizează evenimente de actualitate și dezbat fenomene care ne influențează viața de zi cu zi.

Odată cu creșterea mișcărilor suveraniste, s-au intensificat și conspirațiile legate de deciziile și influența Uniunii Europene în România. Criticată pentru că ar fi prea tehnică, birocratică și elitistă, UE ne-a oferit totuși o viață mai bună, nu doar aici, în România, ci și celorlalți europeni care fac parte din această comunitate.În acest episod, Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri discută despre viitorul proiectului european, despre ce are de câștigat România din apartenența la UE, dar și despre rolul real al instituțiilor europene în influențarea politicilor naționale.„Politică la minut by Recorder” e un podcast în care Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu îți aduc explicații clare și accesibile despre funcționarea sistemelor politice, analizează evenimente de actualitate și dezbat fenomene care ne influențează viața de zi cu zi.Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri sunt fondatorii inițiativei Politică la minut și sunt licențiați în științe politice cu First Class Honours la King's College London.

LeMay's Post-War Legacy — James M. Scott — Following World War II, LeMay ascends to command the Strategic Air Command (SAC) and eventually assumes the position of Air Force Chief of Staff, though he struggles to navigate the complex political environment and institutional constraints characterizing Washingtonbureaucracy and civilian oversight. Scott documents that LeMay never publicly expressed remorse or moral regret regarding the firebombing campaign, consistently maintaining that the campaign was militarily necessary to prevent a catastrophically expensive ground invasion of the Japanese mainland requiring massive American casualty expenditures. Scott notes that LeMay's historical reputation suffers significantly in subsequent decades due to his controversial "bomb them back to the Stone Age" rhetoric regarding Vietnam policy and his catastrophically ill-conceived decision to accept the Vice Presidential nomination on George Wallace's segregationist ticket in 1968, thereby associating him with explicit racial segregation advocacy and political extremism. 1930

Banca Națională a Kazahstanului (NBK) ar trebui să mențină o politică monetară strictă până când inflația se apropie de ținta oficială, a indicat Fondul Monetar Internațional (FMI) în urma consultării sale cu Astana din 2025, relatează site-ul de știri trend.az. FMI subliniază că menținerea unei politici monetare stricte și consolidarea managementului lichidității rămân esențiale în contextul inflației persistente. Fondul a salutat creșterea recentă a ratei dobânzii și introducerea treptată a unor rezerve minime obligatorii mai mari, menite să absoarbă excesul de lichiditate din sistemul bancar. Instituția recomandă, de asemenea, luarea în considerare a utilizării unor instrumente suplimentare, inclusiv emiterea coordonată de titluri pe termen scurt de către NBK și bonuri de trezorerie de către Ministerul Finanțelor. Datele de la Banca Națională arată că inflația anuală a încetinit ușor în octombrie, de la 12,9% în septembrie la 12,6%, rămânând în același timp mult peste ținta oficială. În timpul unei sesiuni a Senatului, vice prim-ministrul și ministrul Economiei Naționale, Serik Zhumangarin, a indicat că guvernul prognozează o inflație de 9 până la 11% în 2026, urmată de o scădere așteptată până la între 5,5% și 7,5% în 2027, iar apoi de 5 până la 7% până în 2028.  În octombrie 2025, Banca Națională și-a majorat rata dobânzii cheie de la 16,5% la 18%, după ce inflația s-a accelerat în septembrie dincolo de așteptările NKB. Armenia devine membră a Comitetului Patrimoniului Mondial UNESCO Pe 24 noiembrie, Armenia a fost aleasă pentru prima dată ca membru al Comitetului Patrimoniului Mondial în cadrul celei de-a 25-a sesiuni a Adunării Generale a Statelor Părți la Convenția privind protecția Patrimoniului Mondial Cultural și Natural, desfășurată la sediul UNESCO din Paris, anunță PanArmenian.net. La alegerile pentru locurile vacante, Armenia a obținut cel mai mare număr de voturi, 105 din 161 posibile. Conform Ministerului Afacerilor Externe din Erevan, prin aderarea la Comitetul Patrimoniului Mondial, Armenia și-a reafirmat angajamentul de a contribui la eforturile internaționale de protejare, conservare și restaurare a patrimoniului cultural și natural, precum și de promovare a principiilor fundamentale ale Convenției Patrimoniului Mondial.

(The Life and Times of Daniel Part 3)God has pulled back the curtain for in our now.  We are living what it looks like when God pulls back the curtain, and so the depth of the darkness we are basking inToday, we're living in a world where the ugly underbelly of humanity is no longer hidden:Greed parades in the streets.Selfishness gets celebrated as independence.Deception trends faster than truth.Manipulation is marketed as a strategy.Sexual sin has become our declaration of freedom.Political upheaval has become the norm.Satanic agendas are boldly promoted in music, TV, and policy.Children's pain is ignored, minimized, or exploited.Human trafficking headlines grow weekly.Leaders are indicted while still campaigning.Wars erupt while peace talks crumble.Gun violence and school shootings headline the week.Economic instability shakes families daily.Celebrities normalize witchcraft and dark spirituality.And the only reason we haven't fainted like Daniel is because we have been desensitized by a culture soaked in darkness.Closing Song: Wake Up Everybody by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes featuring Teddy Pendergrass.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Politicieni, artiști, oameni de cultură sau ai Bisericii continuă și astăzi să rostogolească propaganda la un secol de la apariția celei mai sângeroase mișcări extremiste și antisemite din România.De la filmele lui Sergiu Nicolaescu până la muzica hip-hop, discursul legionar a rămas o constantă în spațiul public românesc, primind doar ambalaje diferite în funcție de regim și de interesele politice.Cum a supraviețuit legionarismul în cultura și politica românească? Și cum ar trebui să ne raportăm în mod corect la personalități marcante ale culturii noastre, dar care au luat parte la mișcările de extremă dreapta? Acestea sunt doar o parte dintre temele pe care Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri le discută în acest episod din Politica la minut by Recorder.

Se schimbă echilibrul politic în Parlamentul European? După luni agitate, care au început odată cu învestirea noii comisii Von der Leyen, tema revine puternic în actualitate. Aceasta, după ce joi, Partidul Popular European (PPE) a reușit să treacă pachetul de simplificare birocratică, propus de Comisie, cu voturile dreptei eurosceptice. Partenerii tradiționali de coaliție au fost lăsați pe dinafară. După cum constată Euractiv, rezultatul pune la îndoială majoritatea parlamentară din spatele președintei Comisiei Europene, Ursula von der Leyen, și marchează un pas înainte în coordonarea dintre centrul politic al UE și extrema dreaptă din Parlament. Rezultatul evidențiază disponibilitatea PPE de a-și abandona aliații tradiționali din coaliția de centru, notează și Politico. Pe scurt: votul de joi a vizat reducerea drastică a obligațiilor companiilor de raportare a amprentei carbon. De asemenea, au fost eliminate planurile obligatorii de tranziție climatică pentru companii, în conformitate cu obiectivele UE și ale Acordului de la Paris. Un număr de 382 de deputați europeni au votat pentru, 249 au fost împotrivă și 13 s-au abținut. Pachetul de simplificare a fost propus de Comisia Europeană în februarie, în cadrul eforturilor de creștere a competitivității economiei blocului.   Inițiativa a fost intens negociată în cadrul coaliției majoritare, alcătuită din PPE de centru-dreapta, social-democrații (S&D, centru-stânga), liberalii centriști din Renew și grupul Verzilor. Negocierile nu au înaintat deloc, așa că PPE a privit către dreapta și a reușit să treacă legea cu ajutorul conservatorilor dar și al grupurilor din dreapta eurosceptică - Patrioții și Europa Națiunilor. Însă și unii liberali au votat în favoarea modificărilor. O agendă ”trumpistă”? Imediat după vot, grupul PPE și-a arătat satisfacția, postând pe pagina sa că și-a respectat promisiunile. ”Astăzi este o zi bună pentru întreprinderile și competitivitatea europeană. Astăzi am dat rezultate. Am readus competitivitatea pe ordinea de zi și am demonstrat că Europa poate fi atât sustenabilă, cât și competitivă”, a declarat deputatul european Jörgen Warborn, negociator principal al Parlamentului pentru acest dosar. Cu totul altfel se văd lucrurile din zona de centru-stânga. Ana Catarina Mendes, vicepreședinta S&D, a deplâns faptul că PPE a trecut pachetul legislativ prin colaborarea cu extrema dreaptă eurosceptică. ”Făcând echipă cu extrema dreaptă, aceștia implementează o agendă trumpistă fără reguli și obligații, demontând standardele UE și modelul nostru de societate”. Ea spune că s-ar fi putut găsi un compromis bun ”între simplificare și protejarea cetățenilor”, dar acest lucru nu a fost posibil din cauza popularilor europeni.   ”PPE trebuie să se întrebe dacă dorește cu adevărat să se lege de forțe de extremă dreaptă pentru câștiguri pe termen scurt”, a avertizat reprezentanta socialistă. Pachetul legislativ urmează să intre acum în procedura de mediere cu Consiliu. În timp ce consecințele politice urmează să se facă vizibile în Parlamentul European.

In this audience-driven “mailroom” episode of The Week Spun, the conversation opens with a provocative idea from the PRovoke Summit: AI is now being discussed in full-time equivalent (FTE) terms, signaling a shift in how agencies and organizations think about synthetic labor. Guest host Kim Sample, President of the PR Council, joins Doug Downs and David Gallagher to explore what this means for the future of work in PR.From there, the trio digs into listener-submitted questions on everything from Apple's conspicuous silence in the podcasting space, to why PR professionals struggle with personal branding, how fairness is driving consumer outrage, gender representation in politics, and the surprising TikTok-fueled backlash to a Halloween ad campaign from Hatch Sleep.Audio Episode Chapters 1:51 What is a “synthetic FTE” and how is AI reshaping PR teams 4:29 Are brands finally taking owned content like blogs and podcasts seriously 8:11 Does Apple still care about podcasts or is their silence a statement 13:05 Why do PR pros struggle with confidence and self promotion 21:03 Does visibility for women in politics actually equal shared power Video Episode Chapters1:54 What is a “Synthetic FTE” and How Will AI Change PR Teams? 5:16 Are Brands Finally Getting Serious About Owned Media and Podcasts? 10:51 Does Apple Still Care About Podcast?

Send us a textThis episode was originally released as a Patreon only episode in March 2025 as a reaction to the first meeting in the Oval Office between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky.Summary: Throughout history, political thinkers have sought to understand the nature of power, war, and human ambition. The question I ask, having been exposed to the writings of three important works of political philosophy, is, but do their insights align with biblical wisdom?In this special bonus episode, I examine three foundational works of political thought—Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War, Carl von Clausewitz's On War, and Hans Morgenthau's Politics Among Nations. By exploring these texts, I believe we uncover the patterns that have shaped human history and I compare them to the teachings of Scripture, asking what they reveal about the fallen nature of humanity and God's vision for justice, peace, and righteous leadership.Join us as we navigate these works, wrestle with their implications, and seek to apply biblical truth to our understanding of politics and power.Episode NotesThucydides' History of the Peloponnesian WarWritten in the 5th century BC, Thucydides' work is one of the first analytical histories, focusing on power, human nature, and realpolitik.Key themes: war, empire, morality of power, and the nature of justice in international relations.The Melian Dialogue exemplifies political realism: “The strong do what they can, and the weak suffer what they must.”Christian Perspective: Thucydides' bleak view contrasts with biblical teachings on justice, mercy, and the dignity of all people (Micah 6:8, Matthew 5).Carl von Clausewitz's On WarWritten in the early 19th century, this work explores the philosophy of war, strategy, and the nature of conflict.Key ideas: war as an extension of politics, the unpredictability of war (fog of war), and the role of passion, policy, and uncertainty.Christian Perspective: Clausewitz's pragmatic approach often ignores moral constraints. While war is a reality of a fallen world, Christian teachings call for peacemaking (Matthew 5:9) and emphasize justice over mere strategic success.Hans Morgenthau's Politics Among NationsA foundational text in international relations (1948), advocating political realism—the idea that international politics is driven by power and self-interest.Key themes: the balance of power, national interest, and the anarchic nature of the international system.Christian Perspective: While Morgenthau correctly diagnoses human self-interest, he neglects the possibility of moral progress, redemption, and God's call for justice and peace (Romans 12:18, Isaiah 2:4).ConclusionThese three thinkers provide essential insights into the realities of political history and international relations. Yet, their perspectives sometimes contrast sharply with Christian teachings on justice, mercy, and the ultimate hope for peace in God's kingdom.

Politicieni din toate taberele invocă adesea meritocrația ca soluție pentru un sistem clientelar și corupt, pe care, paradoxal, tot ei l-au creat. Însă un model bazat exclusiv pe merite, aplicat la toate nivelurile, poate genera și multe nedreptăți.În noul episod al podcastului „Politică la minut by Recorder", Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu discută despre originile ideii de meritocrație, despre frustrările pe care le poate provoca un astfel de sistem, despre cum a apărut mitul „asistaților social” și despre felul în care politicienii populiști folosesc discursul meritocratic pentru a justifica opoziția față de politicile menite să aducă mai multă echitate în societate.

Promisiunile lui Donald Trump, discuțiile tot mai aprinse despre reglementarea platformelor online, reacțiile controversate ale autorităților față de protestele pro-Palestina și moartea lui Charlie Kirk au readus în centrul atenției o temă esențială: libertatea de exprimare.Care sunt limitele acesteia în România? Există cu adevărat cancel culture în spațiul public autohton? Și unde se trasează granița dintre libera exprimare și instigarea la ură?Aceste subiecte sunt discutate de politologii Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri, în noul episod Politică la minut by Recorder.„Politică la minut by Recorder” e un podcast în care Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu îți aduc explicații clare și accesibile despre funcționarea sistemelor politice, analizează evenimente de actualitate și dezbat fenomene care ne influențează viața de zi cu zi.Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri sunt fondatorii inițiativei Politică la minut și sunt licențiați în științe politice cu First Class Honours la King's College London.

Pe fondul protestelor anti-imigrație, a violențelor la adresa lucrătorilor străini și a accentuării mesajelor care incită la discriminare, în primul episod din podcastul Politică la minut by Recorder, Vlad și Răzvan și-au propus să răspundă concret la întrebarea „Sunt muncitorii străini o problemă reală pentru România?”Aceștia analizează temele de propagandă ale extremei drepte din România și de dincolo de granițe, demontează cele mai populare mituri despre migratorii străini și analizează motivele pentru care pare că tinerii sunt mai predispuși în a pica în plasa dezinformărilor.„Politică la minut by Recorder” e un podcast în care Răzvan Petri și Vlad Adamescu îți aduc explicații clare și accesibile despre funcționarea sistemelor politice, analizează evenimente de actualitate și dezbat fenomene care ne influențează viața de zi cu zi.Vlad Adamescu și Răzvan Petri sunt licențiați în științe politice cu First Class Honours la King's College London.

Danielle (00:20):Welcome to the Arise podcast, conversations about reality and talking a lot about what that means in the context of church, faith, race, justice, religion, all the things. Today, I'm so honored to have Sarah Van Gelder, a community leader, an example of working and continuing to work on building solidarity and networks and communication skills and settling into her lane. I hope you enjoy this conversation. Hey, Sarah, it's so good to be with you. And these are just casual conversations, and I do actual minimal editing, but they do get a pretty good reach, so that's exciting. I would love to hear you introduce yourself. How do you introduce yourself these days? Tell me a little bit about who you are. Okay.Sarah (01:14):My name is Sarah Van Gelder and I live in Bremer and Washington. I just retired after working for the Suquamish Tribe for six years, so I'm still in the process of figuring out what it means to be retired, doing a lot of writing, a certain amount of activism, and of course, just trying to figure out day to day, how to deal with the latest, outrageous coming from the administration. But that's the most recent thing. I think what I'm most known for is the founding yes magazine and being the editor for many years. So I still think a lot about how do we understand that we're in an era that's essentially collapsing and something new may be emerging to take its place? How do we understand what this moment is and really give energy to the emergence of something new? So those are sort of the foundational questions that I think about.Danielle (02:20):Okay. Those are big questions. I hadn't actually imagined that something new is going to emerge, but I do agree there is something that's collapsing, that's disintegrating. As you know, I reached out about how are we thinking about what is reality and what is not? And you can kind of see throughout the political spectrum or community, depending on who you're with and at what time people are viewing the world through a specific lens. And of course, we always are. We have our own lens, and some people allow other inputs into that lens. Some people are very specific, what they allow, what they don't allow. And so what do we call as reality when it comes to reality and politics or reality and faith or gender, sexuality? It's feeling more and more separate. And so that's kind of why I reached out to you. I know you're a thinker. I know you're a writer, and so I was wondering, as you think about those topics, what do you think even just about what I've said or where does your mind go?Sarah (03:32):Yeah. Well, at first when you said that was the topic, I was a little intimidated by it because it sounded a little abstract. But then I started thinking about how it is so hard right now to know what's real, partly because there's this very conscious effort to distort reality and get people to accept lies. And I think actually part of totalitarian work is to get people to just in the Orwellian book 1984, the character had to agree that two plus two equals five. And only when he had fully embraced that idea could he be considered really part of society.(04:14):So there's this effort to get us to accept things that we actually know aren't true. And there's a deep betrayal that takes place when we do that, when we essentially gaslight ourselves to say something is true when we know it's not. And I think for a lot of people who have, I think that's one of the reasons the Republican party is in such trouble right now, is because so many people who in previous years might've had some integrity with their own belief system, have had to toss that aside to adopt the lies of the Trump administration, for example, that the 2020 election was stolen. And if they don't accept those lies, they get rejected from the party. And once you accept those lies, then from then on you have betrayed yourself. And in many ways, you've betrayed the people who trust you. So it's a really tough dilemma sort of at that political level, even for people who have not bought into the MAGA mindset, or I do think of it as many people have described as a cult.(05:31):Now, even for people who have not bought into that, I think it's just really hard to be in a world where so many fundamental aspects of reality are not shared with people in your own family, in your own workplace, in your own community. I think it's incredibly challenging and we don't really know, and I certainly don't know how to have conversations. In fact, this is a question I wanted to ask you to have conversations across that line of reality because there's so much places where feelings get hurt, but there's also hard to reference back to any shared understanding in order to start with some kind of common ground. It feels like the ground is just completely unreliable. But I'd love to hear your thoughts about how you think about that.Danielle (06:33):It's interesting. I have some family members that are on the far, far, including my parent, well, not my parents exactly, but my father, and I've known this for a while. So prior to what happened in a couple weeks ago with the murder of an activist, I had spent a lot of time actually listening to that activist and trying to understand what he stood for, what he said, why my family was so interested in it. I spent time reading. And then I also was listening to, I don't know if you're familiar with the Midas Touch podcast? Yeah. So I listened to the Midas Brothers, and they're exact opposites. They're like, one is saying, you idiot, and the other one is like, oh, you're an idiot. And so when I could do it, when I had space to do it, it was actually kind of funny to me.(07:34):Sometimes I'm like, oh, that's what they think of someone that thinks like me. And that's when that guy says, calls them an idiot. I feel some resonance with that. So I did that a lot. However, practically speaking, just recently in the last couple months, someone reached out to me from across the political ideology line and said, Hey, wouldn't it be fun if we got together and talked? We think really differently. We've known each other for 20 years. Could you do that? So I said, I thought about it and I was like, yeah, I say this, I should act on it. I should follow through. So I said, okay, yeah, let's meet. We set up a time. And when you get that feeling like that person's not going to show up, but you're also feeling like, I don't know if I want them to show up.(08:24):Am I really going to show up? But it's kind of like a game of chicken. Well, I hung in there longer, maybe not because I wanted to show up, but just because I got distracted by my four kids and whatnot, and it was summer, and the other person did say, oh, I sprained my ankle. I can't have a conversation with you. I was like, oh, okay. And they were like, well, let me reschedule. So I waited. I didn't hear back from them, and then they hopped onto one of my Facebook pages and said some stuff, and I responded and I said, Hey, wait a minute. I thought we were going to have a conversation in person. And it was crickets, it was silence, it was nothing. And then I was tagged in some other comments of people that I would consider even more extreme. And just like, this is an example of intolerance.(09:13):And I was like, whoa, how did I get here? How did I get here? And like I said, I'm not innocent. I associate some of the name calling and I have those explicit feelings. And I was struck by that. And then in my own personal family, we started a group chat and it did not go well. As soon as we jumped into talking about immigration and ice enforcement and stuff after there were two sides stated, and then the side that was on the far right side said, well, there's no point in talking anymore. We're not going to convince each other. And my brother and I were like, wait a minute, can we keep talking? We're not going to convince each other, but how can we just stop talking? And it's just been crickets. It's been silence. There's been nothing. So I think as you ask me that, I just feel like deep pain, how can we not have the things I think, or my perception of what the other side believes is extremely harmful to me and my family. But what feels even more harmful is the fact that we can't even talk about it. There's no tolerance to hear how hurtful that is to us or the real impact on our day-to-day life. And I think this, it's not just the ideology, but it's the inability to even just have some empathy there. And then again, if you heard a guy like Charlie Kirk, he didn't believe in empathy. So I have to remember, okay, maybe they don't even believe in empathy. Okay, so I don't have an answer. What about you?Sarah (11:03):No, I don't either. Except to say that I think efforts that are based on trying to convince someone of a rational argument don't work because this is not about analysis or about rationality, it's about identity, and it's about deep feelings of fear and questions of worthiness. And I think part of this moment we're in with the empire collapsing, the empire that has shorn up so much of our way of life, even people who've been at the margins of it, obviously not as much, but particularly people who are middle class or aspiring to be middle class or upper, that has been where we get our sense of security, where we get our sense of meaning. For a lot of white people, it's their sense of entitlement that they get to have. They're entitled to certain kinds of privileges and ways of life. So if that's collapsing and I believe it is, then that's a very scary time and it's not well understood. So then somebody comes along who's a strong man like Trump and says, not only can I explain it to you, but I can keep you safe. I can be your vengeance against all the insults that you've had to live with. And it's hard to give that up because of somebody coming at you with a rational discussion.(12:36):I think the only way to give that up is to have something better or more secure or more true to lean into. Now that's really hard to do because part of the safety on the right is by totally rejecting the other. And so my sense is, and I don't know if this can possibly work, but my sense is that the only thing that might work is creating nonpolitical spaces where people can just get to know each other as human beings and start feeling that yes, that person is there for me when things are hard and that community is there for me, and they also see me and appreciate who I am. And based on that kind of foundation, I think there's some hope. And so when I think about the kind of organizing to be doing right now, a lot of it really is about just saying, we really all care about our kids and how do we make sure they have good schools and we all need some good healthcare, and let's make sure that that's available to everybody. And just as much as possible keeps it within that other realm. And even maybe not even about issues, maybe it's just about having a potluck and enjoying food together.Danielle (14:10):What structures or how do you know then that you're in reality? And do you have an experience of actually being in a mixed group like that with people that think wildly different than you? And how did that experience inform you? And maybe it's recently, maybe it's in the past. Yeah,Sarah (14:32):So in some respects, I feel like I've lived that way all my life,(14:44):Partly because I spent enough time outside the United States that when I came home as a child, our family lived in India for a year. And so when I came home, I just had this sense that my life, my life and my perceptions of the world were really different than almost everybody else around me, but the exception of other people who'd also spent a lot of time outside the us. And somehow we understood each other pretty well. But most of my life, I felt like I was seeing things differently. And I don't feel like I've ever really particularly gained a lot of skill in crossing that I've tended to just for a lot of what I'm thinking about. I just don't really talk about it except with a few people who are really interested. I don't actually know a lot about how to bridge that gap, except again, to tell stories, to use language that is non-academic, to use language that is part of ordinary people's lives.(16:01):So yes, magazine, that was one of the things that I focused a lot on is we might do some pretty deep analysis, and some of it might include really drawing on some of the best academic work that we could find. But when it came to what we were going to actually produce in the magazine, we really focused in on how do we make this language such that anybody who picks this up who at least feels comfortable reading? And that is a barrier for some people, but anybody who feels comfortable reading can say, yeah, this is written with me in mind. This is not for another group of people. This is written for me. And then part of that strategy was to say, okay, if you can feel that way about it, can you also then feel comfortable sharing it with other people where you feel like they're going to feel invited in and they won't feel like, okay, I'm not your audience.(16:57):I'm not somebody you're trying to speak to. So that's pretty much, I mean, just that whole notion of language and telling stories and using the age old communication as human beings, we evolved to learn by stories. And you can tell now just because you try to tell a kid some lesson and their eyes will roll, but if you tell them a story, they will listen. They won't necessarily agree, but they will listen and it will at least be something they'll think about. So stories is just so essential. And I think that authentic storytelling from our own experience that feels like, okay, I'm not just trying to tell you how you should believe, but I'm trying to say something about my own experience and what's happened to me and where my strength comes from and where my weaknesses and my challenges come from as well.Yeah, you mentioned that, and I was thinking about good stories. And so one of the stories I like to tell is that I moved to Suquamish, which is as an Indian reservation, without knowing really anything about the people I was going to be neighbors with. And there's many stories I could tell you about that. But one of them was that I heard that they were working to restore the ability to dig clams and dies inlet, which is right where silver Dial is located. And I remember thinking that place is a mess. You're never going to be able to have clean enough water because clams require really clean water. They're down filtering all the crap that comes into the water, into their bodies. And so you don't want to eat clams unless the water's very clean. But I remember just having this thought from my perspective, which is find a different place to dig clamps because that place is a mess.(19:11):And then years later, I found out it was now clean enough that they were digging clamps. And I realized that for them, spending years and years, getting the water cleaned up was the obvious thing to do because they think in terms of multiple generations, and they don't give up on parts of their water or their land. So it took years to do it, but they stayed with it. And so that was really a lesson for me in that kind of sense of reality, because my sense of reality is, no, you move on. You do what the pioneers did. One place gets the dust bowl and you move to a different place to farm. And learning to see from the perspective of not only other individuals, but other cultures that have that long millennia of experience in place and how that shifts things. It's almost like to me, it's like if you're looking at the world through one cultural lens, it's like being a one eyed person. You certainly see things, but when you open up your other eye and you can start seeing things in three dimensions, it becomes so much more alive and so much more rich with information and with possibilities.Danielle (20:35):Well, when you think about, and there's a lot probably, how do you apply that to today or even our political landscape? We're finding reality today.Sarah (20:48):Well, I think that the MAGA cult is very, very one eyed. And again, because that sense of safety and identity is so tied up in maintaining that they're not necessarily going to voluntarily open a second eye. But if they do, it would probably be because of stories. There's a story, and I think things like the Jimmy Kimmel thing is an example of that.(21:21):There's a story of someone who said what he believed and was almost completely shut down. And the reason that didn't happen is because people rose up and said, no, that's unacceptable. So I think there's a fundamental belief that's widespread enough that we don't shut down people for speech unless it's so violent that it's really dangerous. We don't shut people down for that. So I think when there's that kind of dissonance, I think there's sometimes an opening, and then it's really important to use that opening, not as a time to celebrate that other people were wrong and we were right, but to celebrate these values that free speech is really important and we're going to stand up for it, and that's who we are. So we get back to that identity. You can feel proud that you were part of this movement that helped make sure that free speech is maintained in the United States. Oh, that'sDanielle (22:26):Very powerful. Yeah, because one side of my family is German, and they're the German Mennonites. They settled around the Black Sea region, and then the other side is Mexican. But these settlers were invited by Catherine the Great, and she was like, Hey, come over here. And Mennonites had a history of non-violence pacifist movement. They didn't want to be conscripted into the German army. And so this was also attractive for them because they were skilled farmers and they had a place to go and Russia and farm. And so that's why they left Germany, to go to Russia to want to seek freedom of their religion and use their farming skills till the soil as well as not be conscripted into violent political movements. That's the ancestry of the side of my family that is now far.(23:29):And I find, and of course, they came here and when they were eventually kicked out, and part of that them being kicked out was then them moving to the Dakotas and then kicking out the native tribes men that were there on offer from the US government. So you see the perpetuation of harm, and I guess I just wonder what all of that cost my ancestors, what it cost them to enact harm that they had received themselves. And then there was a shift. Some of them went to World War II as conscientious objectors, a couple went as fighters.(24:18):So then you start seeing that shift. I'm no longer, I'm not like a pacifist. You start seeing the shift and then we're to today, I don't know if those black sea farmers that moved to Russia would be looking down and being good job. Those weren't the values it seems like they were pursuing. So I even, I've been thinking a lot about that and just what does that reality mean here? What separations, what splitting has my family had to do to, they changed from these deeply. To move an entire country means you're very committed to your values, uproot your life, even if you're farming and you're going to be good at it somewhere else, it's a big deal.Sarah (25:10):Oh, yeah. So it also could be based on fear, right? Because I think so many of the people who immigrated here were certainly my Jewish heritage. There is this long history of pilgrims and people would get killed. And so it wasn't necessarily that for a lot of people that they really had an option to live where they were. And of course, today's refugees, a lot of 'em are here for the same reason. But I think one of the things that happened in the United States is the assimilation into whiteness.(25:49):So as white people, it's obviously different for different communities, but if you came in here and you Irish people and Italians and so forth were despised at certain times and Jews and Quakers even. But over time, if you were white, you could and many did assimilate. And what did assimilate into whiteness? First of all, whiteness is not a culture, and it's kind of bereft of real meaning because the real cultures were the original Irish and Italian. But the other thing is that how you make whiteness a community, if you will, is by excluding other people, is by saying, well, we're different than these other folks. So I don't know if this applies to your ancestors or not, but it is possible that part of what their assimilation to the United States was is to say, okay, we are white people and we are entitled to this land in North Dakota because we're not native. And so now our identity is people who are secure on the land, who have title to it and can have a livelihood and can raise our children in security. That is all wrapped up in us not being native and in our government, keeping native people from reclaiming that land.(27:19):So that starts shifting over generations. Certainly, it can certainly shift the politics. And I think that plus obviously the sense of entitlement that so many people felt to and feel to their slave holding ancestors, that was a defensible thing to do. And saying it's not is a real challenge to somebody's identity.(27:51):So in that respect, that whole business that Trump is doing or trying to restore the Confederate statues, those were not from the time of slavery. Those were from after reconstruction. Those were part of the south claiming that it had the moral authority and the moral right to do these centuries long atrocities against enslaved people. And so to me, that's still part of the fundamental identity struggle we're in right now, is people saying, if I identify as white, yes, I get all this safety and all these privileges, but I also have this burden of this history and history that's continuing today, and how do I reconcile those two? And Trump says, you don't have to. You can just be proud of what you have perpetrated or what your ancestors perpetrated on other people.And I think there was some real too. I think there were people who honestly felt that they wanted to reconcile the, and people I think who are more willing to have complex thoughts about this country because there are things to be proud of, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and the long history of protecting free speech and journalism and education for everyone and so forth. So there are definitely things to be proud of. And then there are things to recognize. We're incredibly violent and have had multiple generations of trauma resulting from it. And to live in this country in authenticity is to recognize that both are true and we're stuck with the history, but we're not stuck without being able to deal with that. We can do restitution and reparations and we can heal from that.Danielle (30:15):How do you stay connected even just to your own self in that dissonance that you just described?Sarah (30:30):Well, I think part of having compassion is to recognize that we're imperfect beings as individuals, but we're also imperfect as cultures. And so for me, I can live with, I mean, this is something I've lived with ever since I was in India, really. And I looked around and noticed that there were all these kids my own age who were impoverished and I was not. And that I knew I have enough to eat at the end of the day, and I knew that many of them would not have enough to eat. So it's always been a challenge for me. And so my response to that has been when I was a kid was, well, I don't understand how that happened. It's certainly not right. I don't understand how it could be, and I'm going to do my best to understand it, and then I'll do my part to try to change it. And I basically had the same view ever since then, which is there's only so much I can do, but I'll do everything I can, including examining my own complicity and working through issues that I might be carrying as somebody who grew up in a white supremacist culture, working on that internally, and then also working in community and working as an activist in a writer in any way I can think of that I can make a contribution.(31:56):But I really do believe that healing is possible. And so when I think about the people that are causing that I feel like are not dealing with the harm that they're creating, I still feel just somebody who goes to prison for doing a crime that's not the whole of who they are. And so they're going to have to ultimately make the choice about whether they're going to heal and reconcile and repair the damage they will have to make that choice. But for my part, I always want to keep that door open in my relationship with them and in my writing and in any other way, I want to keep the door open.Danielle (32:43):And I hear that, and I'm like, that's noble. And it's so hard to do to keep that door open. So what are some of the tools you use, even just on your own that help you keep that door open to conversation, even to feeling compassion for people maybe you don't agree with? What are some of the things, maybe their internal resources, external resources could be like, I don't know, somebody you read, go back to and read. Yeah. What helps you?Sarah (33:16):Well, the most important thing for me to keep my sanity is a combination of getting exercise and getting outside(33:27):And hanging out with my granddaughter and other people I love outside of political spaces because the political spaces get back into the stress. So yeah, I mean the exercise, I just feel like being grounded in our bodies is so important. And partly that the experience of fear and anxiety show up in our bodies, and we can also process them through being really active. So I'm kind of worried that if I get to the point where I'm too old to be able to really move, whether I'll be able to process as well. So there's that in terms of the natural world, this aliveness that I feel like transcends me and certainly humanity and just an aliveness that I just kind of open my senses to. And then it's sort, they call it forest bathing or don't have to be in a forest to do it, but just sort of allowing that aliveness to wash over me and to sort of celebrate it and to remember that we're all part of that aliveness. And then spending time with a 2-year-old is like, okay, anything that I may be hung up on, it becomes completely irrelevant to her experience.Danielle (35:12):I love that. Sarah, for you, even though I know you heard, you're still asking these questions yourself, what would you tell people to do if they're listening and they're like, and they're like, man, I don't know how to even start a conversation with someone that thinks different than me. I don't know how to even be in the same room them, and I'm not saying that your answers can apply to everybody. Mine certainly don't either, like you and me are just having a conversation. We're just talking it out. But what are some of the things you go to if you know you're going to be with people Yeah. That think differently than you, and how do you think about it?Sarah (35:54):Yeah, I mean, I don't feel particularly proud of this because I don't feel very capable of having a direct conversation with somebody who's, because I don't know how to get to a foundational level that we have in common, except sometimes we do. Sometimes it's like family, and sometimes it's like, what did you do for the weekend? And so it can feel like small talk, but it can also have an element of just recognizing that we're each in a body, in perhaps in a family living our lives struggling with how to live well. And so I usually don't try to get very far beyond that, honestly. And again, I'm not proud of that because I would love to have conversations that are enlightening for me and the other person. And my go-to is really much more basic than that.Maybe it is. And maybe it creates enough sense of safety that someday that other level of conversation can happen, even if it can't happen right away.Danielle (37:14):Well, Sarah, tell me if people are looking for your writing and know you write a blog, tell me a little bit about that and where to find you. Okay.Sarah (37:26):Yeah, my blog is called How We Rise, and it's on Substack. And so I'm writing now and then, and I'm also writing somewhat for Truth Out Truth out.org has adopted the Yes Archive, which I'm very grateful to them for because they're going to keep it available so people can continue to research and find articles there that are still relevant. And they're going to be continuing to do a monthly newsletter where they're going to draw on Yes, archives to tell stories about what's going on now. Yes, archives that are specifically relevant. So I recommend that. And otherwise, I'm just right now working on a draft of an op-ed about Palestine, which I hope I can get published. So I'm sort of doing a little of this and a little of that, but I don't feel like I have a clear focus. The chaos of what's going on nationally is so overwhelming, and I keep wanting to come back to my own and my own focus of writing, but I can't say that I've gotten there yet.Danielle (38:41):I hear you. Well, I hope you'll be back, and hopefully we can have more conversations. And just thanks a lot for being willing to just talk about stuff we don't know everything about.As always, thank you for joining us, and at the end of the podcast are notes and resources, and I encourage you to stay connected to those who are loving in your path and in your community.

An ex-Māori party co-leader suspects problems within the current cohort as an influential former supporter cut ties. Toitū Te Tiriti's Eru Kapa-Kingi's described the party's leadership as "effectively a dictatorship model". The party's emailed members overnight, saying it remains committed to transparency, accountability, and unity. Former co-leader Te Ururoa Flavell told Mike Hosking he's not close to the leadership but based on the last few weeks there could be issues. Flavell's pointing to the fall out around Takuta Ferris and the removal of Mariameno Kapa-Kingi as whip. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ca să rezolvaţi situaţia deficitului bugetar, ce alegeţi: creşterea taxelor şi impozitelor, creşterea inflaţiei, îngheţarea sau chiar reducerea salariilor, sau reducerea cheltuielilor bugetare şi aparatului bugetar? Problema este că nimeni nu vrea să se atingă de aparatul de stat (Ziarul Financiar) - Exclusiv Cum a devenit peste noapte un consilier prezidențial susținătorul lui Călin Georgescu și militant AUR (SpotMedia) - „Și înainte s-au cumpărat voturi, dar niciodată nu ne-au presat așa”. VIDEOREPORTAJ înainte de alegeri în Republica Moldova, unde „oamenii gândesc diferit, inclusiv din perspectivă geopolitică” (HotNews) Săptămâna deciziilor cruciale. Intră România în criză politică? (G4Media) Două decizii cruciale sunt așteptate săptămâna aceasta, care ar putea duce la o demisie a premierului Ilie Bolojan, ceea ce înseamnă de fapt încheierea mandatului actualului Guvern. Iar în contextul economic și social actual, menținerea actualei coaliții PSD-PNL-USR-UDMR care să asigure o majoritate pro-europeană în Parlament și formarea unui nou Guvern cu cele patru partide sunt și mai dificile decât în iunie, când negocierile au durat circa o lună de zile. România ar risca să intre într-o criză politică, care ar agrava și mai mult situația economică. Concret, Curtea Constituțională este așteptată să se pronunțe, miercuri 24 septembrie, pe toate cele nouă sesizări care privesc proiectele din Pachetul 2 de reforme pentru care Guvernul Bolojan și-a asumat răspunderea în Parlament. Cea mai așteptată decizie este pe legea pensiilor magistraților, atacată la CCR de Înalta Curte de Casație și Justiție condusă de Lia Savonea. Celelalte patru proiecte din pachet – care vizează inclusiv reforma în sănătate, guvernanța corporativă, creșterea impozitelor pe proprietate și alte măsuri care să aducă venituri la buget – au fost contestate la CCR de partidele extremiste AUR, POT și SOS, care au depus câte două sesizări pentru fiecare lege, scrie jurnalista Ioana Câmpean pe pagina G4Media. Decizia din 24 septembrie a Curții Constituționale ar putea hotărî soarta Guvernului Bolojan. Atât premierul Ilie Bolojan, cât și liderii USR și UDMR au declarat deja că, în cazul respingerii legii la CCR, Guvernul nu mai are legitimitate. În paralel, o altă măsură importantă se discută cu demisia premierului pe masă: reforma administrației locale, unde Ilie Bolojan susține concedierea a 13.000 de angajați. Cea mai mare opoziție o manifestă PSD, partid aflat la guvernare atât acum, cât și în ultimii ani în care măsurile Guvernului Ciolacu au dus la deficitul bugetar uriaș care trebuie acoperit în prezent. PSD este însă un partid cu mulți primari, cei care ar trebui să opereze efectiv concedierile din primării și consilii județene. Prin urmare, o astfel de măsură este greu de acceptat în rândul social-democraților. Și UDMR s-a opus măsurii. Ca să rezolvaţi situaţia deficitului bugetar, ce alegeţi: creşterea taxelor şi impozitelor, creşterea inflaţiei, îngheţarea sau chiar reducerea salariilor, sau reducerea cheltuielilor bugetare şi aparatului bugetar? Problema este că nimeni nu vrea să se atingă de aparatul de stat (Ziarul Financiar) Premierul Bolojan încearcă să termine anul “în picioare”, în condiţiile în care PSD, UDMR, USR şi chiar o parte din PNL pariază împotriva lui, având în vedere că toată administraţia publică centrală şi locală, tot aparatul de stat votează împotriva lui. Cu un deficit bugetar care nu scade ci chiar creşte în ciuda adoptării unor măsuri fiscale nepopulare – creşterea TVA, introducerea CASS la pensii etc. -, premierul Bolojan încearcă să facă restructurarea administraţiei publice locale şi centrale, o restructurare care nu este susţinută de niciun partid din coaliţie, de niciun lider politic naţional şi local. În retorică, toată lumea susţine reforma şi restructurarea statului, dar în realitate nimeni nu susţine tăierea reală a numărului de angajaţi, comasarea instituţiilor sau chiar eliminarea unora care nu-şi justifică existenţa, reducerea posturilor din companiile de stat etc.   Poate să intre toată ţara în criză din cauza derapajului finanţelor publice, dar să nu se atingă cineva de aparatul de stat, observă Cristian Hostiuc, director editorial ZF. S-ar putea să ajungem în situaţia în care niciun medicament să nu mai funcţioneze. Şi atunci se va ajunge la bisturiu, cu toate consecinţele de rigoare, avertizează jurnalistul. Exclusiv Cum a devenit peste noapte un consilier prezidențial susținătorul lui Călin Georgescu și militant AUR (SpotMedia) George Scarlat a lucrat peste 9 ani la Palatul Cotroceni, în mandatul lui Klaus Iohannis. La câteva săptămâni după anularea alegerilor prezidențiale, demisionează, devenind rapid un vocal susținător al lui Călin Georgescu și activist AUR, primind la jumătatea acestui an interdicția de a intra pe teritoriul Moldovei. Cazul e interesant din perspectiva în care poate aduce puțină lumină pentru opinia publică asupra labirintului de complicități la nivelul statului, arătând cum au fost paralizate multe dintre instituțiile care aveau atribuții în domeniul siguranței naționale, permițând dezvoltarea atacului hibrid al Rusiei în urma căruia, la sfârșitul anului trecut, a fost compromis procesul electoral din România.

VIDEOREPORTAJ înainte de alegeri în Republica Moldova, unde „oamenii gândesc diferit, inclusiv din perspectivă geopolitică” (HotNews) „Aceste alegeri sunt cele mai periculoase din istoria existenței Republicii Moldova ca stat independent, deoarece este un interes foarte mare atât din partea Federației Ruse, cât și a Occidentului”, spune politicianul Renato Usatîi, într-o discuție la Chișinău cu o echipă HotNews. Partidul fostului primar din Bălți este pe locul trei în sondaje, după socialiști și PAS, formațiunea aflată la guvernare. HotNews a mers înainte de alegerile parlamentare din Republica Moldova și a vorbit cu oameni și politicieni pentru a avea mai multe perspective asupra acestui scrutin considerat de analiști unul decisiv pentru parcursul european al țării.  Principala acuzație la adresa actualei guvernări este aceea că nu a găsit soluții pentru a contracara creșterea prețurilor, în special la energie, cauzate de războiul din Ucraina. Vicepreședintele PAS, Radu Marian, susține că veniturile cetățenilor au crescut mai mult decât rata inflației.

David Pietrusza's book, Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal, chronicles Franklin Delano Roosevelt's pivotal re-election campaign in 1936, a moment that fundamentally reshaped American political demographics and solidified the New Deal as a national agenda. The campaign began under the shadow of the death of Louis Howe in April 1936, FDR's closest political strategist and confidant since 1912. Howe, despite his "unpleasant acerbic" nature and poor health, was an invaluable aide, worshiping FDR and actively pushing Eleanor Roosevelt into political activism following FDR's 1917 affair. His passing left Roosevelt to navigate a complex political landscape on his own. 1936LOWELL THOMAS & FDR Roosevelt faced significant opposition from both the political right and left. On the right, Al Smith, former Governor of New York and FDR's erstwhile mentor, emerged as a fierce critic. Disaffected since FDR's governorship, Smith believed Roosevelt's "forgotten man" speech and New Deal policies constituted "class warfare." Allied with wealthy individuals like the DuPonts and E.F. Hutton, Smith co-founded the American Liberty League, which lambasted the New Deal as unconstitutional and socialist, compelling Roosevelt to wage his own campaign of "class warfare" against these "rich guys in the Silk Hats." From the populist left, FDR contended with the legacy of Huey Long, the charismatic Louisiana senator assassinated in September 1935. Long's radical "Share Our Wealth" program, advocating for massive wealth redistribution and government provision of cars and radios to every family, garnered millions of followers and represented "the greatest force of the populist left." His strategy was to siphon votes in 1936 to ensure a Republican victory, creating a worse economic situation that would pave his way to the presidency in 1940. In Georgia, conservative populist Eugene Talmadge, while ideologically different from Long (being a "Jeffersonian conservative" who refused to fund welfare), also vigorously opposed the New Deal through "race baiting" and accusations of "communist influence," drawing some of Long's former supporters. A significant third-party challenge coalesced around Dr. Francis Everett Townsend, an elderly physician whose Townsend Plan proposed giving $200 a month to every person over 60, requiring them to spend it within 30 days to stimulate the economy. Though Roosevelt personally disliked "the dole," the plan's immense popularity and the formation of millions of Townsend clubs pushed FDR to swiftly introduce Social Security. Townsend later joined forces with Father Charles Edward Coughlin, an influential "radio priest" who initially supported FDR but turned against him over monetary policy, and Reverend Gerald L. K. Smith, a fiery orator akin to Long, along with Congressman William Lemke. This "amateur" coalition, however, failed to gain significant electoral traction, securing only 1.2% of the vote due to ballot access issues in major states and a lack of experienced political leadership. Coughlin, notably, was a more prominent radio figure than FDR for a period, influencing millions through his syndicated broadcasts. FDR's secret meeting with Coughlin at Hyde Park, orchestrated by Joseph Patrick Kennedy, famously ended in a rupture, leading to open political warfare. Ideological parties also presented concerns. The Socialist Party, led by Norman Thomas, consistently polled hundreds of thousands of votes, particularly in urban centers like New York City. The Communist Party USA, under Earl Browder (chosen by Stalin for his pliability and non-Jewish background), initially condemned the New Deal as "fascist." However, with the rise of Adolf Hitler and the global shift to a "popular front" strategy, the Communist Party covertly supported FDR to keep him in power against the looming international threats, while running their own candidate to avoid the "kiss of death" of an overt endorsement. Media mogul William Randolph Hearst, who controlled a vast empire of 28 newspapers and eight radio stations, also became a powerful opponent. Despite initially supporting FDR in 1932, Hearst grew increasingly disaffected by the New Deal's progressive policies and taxes on the wealthy, leading to a "long bumpy involved breakup." FDR even considered "throwing 46 men who make a million dollars a year to the wolves," a direct reference to Hearst and his wealthy allies. The Republican Party ultimately nominated Alf Landon, the Governor of Kansas, a "complete surprise" and "least interesting character." Landon, a progressive Republican favored by Hearst, was known for balancing Kansas's budget but was widely regarded as uncharismatic and a poor public speaker, especially on radio, a crucial medium of the era. His campaign message, promising only a more efficient implementation of New Deal programs he had largely supported, failed to energize the electorate. Earlier potential nominees included Herbert Hoover, William Borah, Frank Knox, and Arthur Hendrick Vandenberg. Roosevelt's campaign, in stark contrast, was dynamic. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt played an indispensable role, defying initial party reluctance to campaign vigorously. She became a crucial link to the African-American vote in Northern cities, even though FDR, for political reasons, declined to support an anti-lynching law favored by Eleanor and the NAACP. Roosevelt himself delivered powerful, "frenzied and irate" speeches, most notably his Madison Square Garden address on Halloween night, where he famously embraced the "hatred" of "economic royalists" and promised accountability, a compelling message of "class warfare" that galvanized the electorate despite his own staff's initial horror at its perceived demagoguery. Despite initial polls, like the Literary Digest (which had predicted a Landon victory), suggesting a close race, Rooseveltachieved an unprecedented landslide. He won 46 of 48 states, secured overwhelming Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress (74 senators, 334 representatives), and claimed 38 governorships. Crucially, FDR carried 104 of 106 major cities, solidifying the Democratic Party's urban strength and marking a profound political realignment in American history. This decisive victory was a clear mandate for the New Deal and established the foundation of the modern Democratic Party.

CONTINUED #MARKETS:   LIZ PEEK THE HILL. FOX NEWS AND FOX BUSINESS Elizabeth Peek: Elizabeth Peek examines the persistent tension between the White House and the Federal Reserve, observing that Chairman Jay Powell's actions are often perceived as politically motivated. She attributes high inflation during the Biden years to belated rate hikes and points to a "bound up housing market" due to past low mortgage rates and current high rates, making housing unaffordable. Peek highlights the underestimated, rapid impact of AI, noting its widespread adoption (700 million weekly ChatGPT users) indicates genuine, impactful companies rather than a bubble. She also supports Trump's proposal for addressing homelessness via dedicated facilities. 1772 LONDON AT WESTMINSTER BRIDGE

Political history was made in New York City on June 24, and once NY1's live TV coverage wrapped early Wednesday morning, NY1's Errol Louis, Courtney Gross and Bobby Cuza broke down the surprise results of the Democratic primary in this special crossover episode of Off Topic/On Politics and You Decide. Queens Assemblyman and Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani, 33, pulled off an upset over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, an outcome few insiders predicted. The team unpacked how Mamdani's grassroots movement energized young voters and what his win means for the future of the Democratic Party.

With the June primary about seven weeks away, the campaign trail in the race for mayor is heating up with new ads and policy proposals. Andrew Cuomo released his mental health plan and announced plans to run on a third-party ballot line this November, while Zohran Mamdani rallied with hundreds of supporters in Brooklyn and Brad Lander released his first campaign ad of the cycle.

Jeff, Gianna, and Michael explore the challenges and responsibilities of living as a Christian community in today's world. They discuss the importance of embodying the teachings of Jesus, particularly the Sermon on the Mount, and the need to focus on community engagement rather than just individual conversion. They highlight the tension between political power and the cross-shaped life that Jesus exemplified, urging listeners to consider how they can live out their faith collectively in a way that reflects the values of Christ. 00:00 Understanding Exile in the Christian Community03:49 The Dual Nature of Exile15:00 The Exilic Gospel and Community17:05 Jesus and the Subversion of Power29:55 Living Out the Exilic Identity32:51 Building a Christ-Centered Community34:42 The Challenge of Individualism in Faith37:51 Preparing for a Life Together40:52 The Shape of Christian Community42:43 Living as Exiles in a Political World46:45 The Power of the Cross vs. Political Power51:38 Embodying the Teachings of Jesus55:30 Conversion vs. Community Living58:49 Trusting in Christ's Alternative Way of Life
