PRESIDENT TRUMP returned home from his Middle East trip with commitments for $2.5 trillion in foreign investment. Are the Abraham Accords proof that Trump is the Antichrist? The peace treaty hinted at in the prophecy of Daniel 9:27, as interpreted by many prophecy teachers, is so vague it could mean almost anything. President Trump's meeting with Ahmed al-Sharaa, the nominal president of Syria, was the first time a US president has met with a Syrian leader in 25 years, another example of how Trump is rearranging the chessboard of the Middle East. However, the “strong covenant with many,” rather than a peace agreement, could be the kind of trade deal Trump is working on with the Gulf oil states (and China, for that matter). That said, the Antichrist will be adored by so many people around the world that he will ultimately be worshipped as a god. President Trump is too divisive a figure for that. We recognize that the president is far from perfect. But at least he's giving American Christians a window of opportunity to preach and practice our faith without interference, something we didn't have with Presidents Biden or Obama.

Our guest today is Jeffrey Toobin, bestselling author and CNN legal commentator. Toobin is well known for his ability to illuminate the complexities of our judicial system, and he's covered some of the country's most sensational news stories … from the O.J. Simpson trial, to Kenneth Starr's investigation of President Clinton, to Martha Stewart's legal battles. His newest book is called The Pardon: The Politics of Presidential Mercy. It's about what many consider the most controversial presidential pardon in American history - Gerald Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon – and its profound implications for our current political landscape, including the ways that Presidents Biden and Trump have exercised their executive power. On February 19, 2025, Toobin came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater to talk to lawyer and legal scholar Lara Bazelon.
Editor: I saw President Trump on TV talking about the plane collision and to give his condolences to the families of the victims. Ay dios mio, in the same breath he had to bring up Presidents Biden and Obama, which in my opinion wasn't appropriate. This is 2025, he won the election, the past is gone, go forward, and make those promises that you made to America come true! ROSA McCOYStockdaleArticle Link

US Presidents past and present have abused the constitutional pardon power, but the abuses of that power in just the last week by Presidents Biden and Trump should get special scrutiny. Clark Neily explains. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
[This blog will always be free to read, but it's also how I pay my bills. If you have suggestions or feedback on how I can earn your paid subscription, shoot me an email: cmclymer@gmail.com.]The state funeral for James Earl “Jimmy” Carter, Jr., the 39th President of the United States, was as well attended by dignitaries as one might expect — or hope.Among the hundreds in attendance at the Washington National Cathedral were Presidents Biden, Obama, Bush, and Clinton; Vice Presidents Harris, Pence, Gore, and Quayle; Secretaries of State Clinton and Kerry; first and second spouses; Chief Justice Roberts and Associate Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Jackson; current and former heads of government from Canada, Colombia, Japan, Portugal, and the United Kingdom; Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh; Antonio Guterres, Secretary General of the United Nations; and scores of senators and members of Congress and ambassadors and other luminaries.I may be missing a notable name or two. Perhaps at least two. That is possible.Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood sang “Imagine" — one of the late president's favorite songs.Steve Ford, the son of President Gerald Ford, whom Pres. Carter defeated in the 1976 election, delivered a beautiful eulogy in which he said to the Carter family: “God did a good thing when he made your dad.”President Biden, in what is likely the final major public speech of his tenure, summed up President Carter in three words: “Character, character, character.”It all felt right and good. It felt fitting. It felt rare and maybe fleeting. It felt like we may not see this kind of easy agreement across the political spectrum for a long time.But with all due respect, it didn't come close to matching the quiet and hardy adoration that could be observed in the previous 36 hours on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol and surrounding streets.It is cold in D.C. this week, enough during the day to aggressively bundle up and enough at night to find any excuse to be indoors and immediately reject that one friend's insane invite to go out for a drink, much less an evening stroll. It is, for most of us, bitterly cold. It is so cold—at least to this Texas gal—that nothing less than the threat to life and limb to a loved one would be enough to convince me to venture into the elements. It is so cold that “outside” is wholly inadequate and only the word “elements” carries a sufficiently adequate connotation.Last night, at 9pm, the temperature was easily below 20 degrees with the wind chill. I understand some of you up north consider this balmy. You must understand that most of us think you're crazy.So, it was painfully cold and uninviting, and yet, even late into the night, there were thousands and thousands of people across all walks of life waiting in line outside for several hours just to enter the Capitol Rotunda for a few moments and walk around the flag-draped casket of one Jimmy Carter and pay their respects to a model human being.There were those who were off for the federal holiday and those who came after a long day of work—suits and dresses and military uniforms—young and old, Democrats and Republicans and independents, the working class and the wealthy, entire families, all of them standing outside in the freezing cold for several hours.That's not an exaggeration. The wait was several hours. At best, one could reasonably hope to get through the line and the quick orbit within the Rotunda in just over three hours. Some folks waited longer, some as many as five hours depending on when they got in line. When was the last time you waited five hours in line for anything? When was the last time you waited three hours in line? When was the last time you did this in the bone chilling cold? When was the last time you did this without any expectation of a tangible reward?They all knew there was no material incentive to be had here. It wasn't like everyone who made the journey got a cookie or gold star after leaving the Rotunda. There were no certificates of appreciation conferred upon completion. No dinner coupons. No drink tickets. No free t-shirts.Need to use the restroom? Walk a few blocks to a nearby restaurant or bar and hope someone is kind enough to hold your spot in line.It was so cold that even the usually familiar sight of phones capturing every angle of any given political event for social media was scarce. Gotta keep those hands warm.People heard the updates. It's gonna be three hours. Maybe four. Maybe five.They stayed in line.It wasn't as though Pres. Carter could do anything for these thousands upon thousands of people who came to say goodbye beyond what he did for them in life, deeds already completed and offered without any assumption of reciprocity.This man who hadn't been president in more than four decades, who had a 31 percent approval rating the month he lost reelection, who was unfairly maligned for many years over his job performance, who was unjustly a punchline to much of the country afterward for so long after leaving office — it was this man they came to honor.They stayed in line, freezing, probably hungry, probably needing to use the restroom at some point, many of them probably wishing they were at home with a hot beverage and blanket in hand.They stayed in line.This one-term president, who went back to his peanut farm after leaving office, who was detested by the bulk of D.C. political circles, who didn't cash out and join a bevy of corporate boards, who didn't feel it necessary to say what was popular or easy, who navigated his life thereafter as a private citizen with such grace and integrity that even his most ardent detractors had to tip their hats and acknowledge his decency.I realize there are so many reasons to feel pessimistic about the future of our country at the moment, but if such decency is so honored as we've seen by everyday Americans on the ground in our Nation's Capitol over these past few days, tell me that isn't cause for hope.Tell me that isn't a glimmer of what we could still be.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dissolved the country's six-member war cabinet, an Israeli official said on June 17, in a widely expected move that came after the departure from government of the centrist former general, Benny Gantz. Mr. Netanyahu is now expected to hold consultations about the Gaza war with a small group of ministers, including Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer, both of whom had been serving in the war cabinet. This could pose an additional challenge to the already-fragile negotiations aimed at ending the eight-month war in Gaza.U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy has said the threat social media poses to American children requires urgent action, and he is demanding that Congress put a label on social media apps as it does with cigarettes and alcohol. “The mental health crisis among young people is an emergency—and social media has emerged as an important contributor,” Mr. Murthy said in an op-ed in The New York Times. Mr. Murthy cited several studies, including a 2019 American Medical Association study that showed teens who spend three hours a day on social media double their risk of depression.President Joe Biden delivered a series of warnings about what a second Donald Trump presidency could hold during a star-studded Los Angeles fundraiser over the weekend, framing the 2024 presidential election as an inflection point in American history. The fundraiser, which featured former President Barack Obama, raised more than $30 million for President Biden's reelection efforts, a campaign official told CNN. The conversation between Presidents Biden and Obama was moderated by TV host Jimmy Kimmel.

Alina Habba's incompetence strikes again! This time it reared its head in the motion for a mistrial in the E. Jean Carroll case. Habba, on Trump's orders, had filed a motion for a mistrial after Carroll admitted to deleting irrelevant emails after discovery for the case had ended. Habba tried to argue that this was tantamount to deleting evidence and therefore a mistrial was warranted, but the judge smacked that down by saying that not only were the emails irrelevant, but that Habba should have filed the motion weeks ago when she learned about it.Also, Republicans in the Senate tanked the border deal that they had demanded, following orders from Donald Trump. Republican Senator James Lankford, one of the lead architects of the bill, admitted after the failure that a popular conservative media figure had actually threatened him several weeks ago, saying that he would "Destroy" the Senator if he passed the legislation. Lankford wouldn't reveal who the commentator was, but given the breadth of the conservative media, the "who" doesn't really matter. And Marjorie Taylor Greene is so upset that her effort to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas failed that she's had to concoct an alternative reality in her head just to cope with her own failure. In an interview with Charlie Kirk following her stunning defeat, Greene suggested that the House Republicans who voted against impeachment must have been bribed because there's no other explanation for why they'd vote against it (except for the complete lack of evidence.)Finally, in a truly bizarre and confusing rant on Truth Social, Donald Trump claimed that presidential immunity is needed to protect people like Presidents Biden and Obama, and then he suggested that the "opposing party" could make all sorts of demands of the president and threaten to prosecute them if they don't comply. This is obviously a thinly veiled threat against President Biden, but it also shows just how freaked out Trump is about losing the immunity case this week.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

0:00 -- Intro.1:26-- About the podcast sponsor: The American College of Governance Counsel.2:13 -- Start of interview.3:47 -- Ker's "origin story." 7:41 -- His history with the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai (AmCham).9:42 -- About his book “Selling to China. Stories of Success, Failure and Constant Change.” (2023). "We felt that it was important to remind people why we're doing this in the first place, you know, what's good about our relationship with China. We wanted bring the commercial issues back into the conversation."13:31 -- On the current idea of “uncoupling” or “de-risking” the US economy from China."I think it is good to talk about 'de-risking' rather than 'decoupling'." "I don't think a complete decoupling is realistic and it's certainly not in the interest of either side. But I think the de-risking term is helpful, in the sense that it aims at communicating the intent. {The intent] here is not to punish China or isolate China or decouple from China, but it is to protect our interests, whether they're military interests or strategic economic interests."16:46 -- On whether the US policies and sanctions towards China are effective."The narrative is that the export controls and sanctions and de-risking coming out of Washington DC is simply pushing China to be more self-sufficient." "This has to be seen as a temporary measure, that gives us time to resolve the actual conflicts that exist."21:21 -- On the US responding with its own industrial policy to catch up with China (e.g. in batteries and EVs). "We've got to be careful not to slip into outright protectionism and allow this to change who we are as a country and how we've been successful as an economy." "[I]f we get into a situation where we are indeed trying to limit China's economic rise, and literally keep China economically contained, that is a dangerous path, and it's a bad narrative, because it inevitably leads to conflict.""I'm basically conservative when it comes to economic issues and fiscal policy, but I have actually been saying for quite a long time that the US needs to get over its aversion to industrial policy and put some planning in place."30:38 -- On China's private sector."[B]eijing actually kept a remarkably light hand [in the development of the internet industry]. I give the Beijing policymakers full credit there for knowing that they needed to stay out of the way and let that happen." "Now we've seen the pendulum swing back the other way." "Jack Ma was going around visiting countries and he would almost be treated like a head of state. I think Jack Ma must have, because his company is publicly listed in New York, he might have confused himself with a Western CEO. He's not. China is China and the West is the West, especially in the tech sector. So yeah, he's been disciplined as have some other tech leaders."36:21 -- On the fate of TikTok in the US.40:38 -- On the recent APEC meeting in SF, and his take on Presidents Biden and Xi Jinping meetings. "I put it in the category of huge success that the meeting happened, that Xi Jinping actually showed up." "It's critical that Xi and Biden meet face-to-face because of the Chinese political system, it is so concentrated at the top."46:09 -- On the risks of a military conflict between the U.S. and China over Taiwan. "We should not underestimate [China's] willingness to take the island and take it by force. I think at some point you have to just take them at their word. If you listen to the domestic media and domestic speeches that Xi and others make in China, it's quite clear that they're highly motivated to take the island and willing to." "[But] I don't think it's imminent, mostly because of the difficulty of taking the island and of the probability of success on the Chinese side.""I think the probability of an accidental conflict [is] high. And until the agreement of the last week or so, the ability to de-escalate and de-conflict, low." "In other words, without that military-to-military hotline, there would be no way for it to de-escalate."50:35 -- How should boards think about de-risking its China exposure."They should be thinking about what are the hard assets that they have, both in mainland China and in Taiwan? What I'm hearing boards do is that some of them are converting their businesses to more asset light. So, in other words, converting a wholly owned subsidiary to maybe selling off some of the shares to make that into a minority investment or a full asset light model might be literally selling factories and hard assets and then maybe licensing them back or something like that to where they wouldn't have to literally write them off the way many companies had to do in Russia when that took place, and you saw large companies writing off literally billions of dollars of assets off their balance sheets because they could no longer have access to them.""Again, I don't think that we are on the brink here, but it would be wise to have plans in place in the case of, especially in accidental conflict."52:27 -- Books that have greatly influenced his life: Free to Choose by Milton Friedman (1980)All books by James Clavell. [*we cover here his thoughts on Hong Kong]No Ordinary Time: Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt: The Home Front in World War II by Doris Kearns Goodwin (1994) ("great companion book to The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer (1960)57:24 -- His mentors: Robert "Bob" Theleen (a local San Franciscan, former VC and Chairman of AmCham Shanghai)Bob Chang (his boss at the Boston Consulting Group in SF)RT Peng (another boss he worked with in Taiwan)58:36 -- Quotes that he thinks of often or lives her life by: "Don't ever let what you can't do stop you from what you can do." by John Wooden.1:00:20 -- An unusual habit or absurd thing that he loves: his daughter.1:01:21 -- The living person he most admires: Arnold Schwarzenegger.Kerr Gibbs is an EIR at the University of San Francisco. Prior, Ker served as the President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai and worked in various roles giving him broad exposure to US-China relations and business issues facing American companies operating in Asia.__This podcast is sponsored by the American College of Governance Counsel.__ You can follow Evan on social media at:Twitter: @evanepsteinLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/epsteinevan/ Substack: https://evanepstein.substack.com/__You can join as a Patron of the Boardroom Governance Podcast at:Patreon: patreon.com/BoardroomGovernancePod__Music/Soundtrack (found via Free Music Archive): Seeing The Future by Dexter Britain is licensed under a Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License You can follow Evan on social media at:Twitter: @evanepsteinLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/epsteinevan/ Substack: https://evanepstein.substack.com/__You can join as a Patron of the Boardroom Governance Podcast at:Patreon: patreon.com/BoardroomGovernancePod__Music/Soundtrack (found via Free Music Archive): Seeing The Future by Dexter Britain is licensed under a Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License
