Gene Marks compares public protests against data centers to the 19th-century opposition to railroads. While critics worry about land and water usage, Marks argues these facilities are imperative infrastructure for the information age and the AI revolution. Just as railroads enabled 20th-century American power, data centers are the means for moving information. Ceding this development would allow rivals like China or Russia to dominate the future economy. (12)1829 FIVE POINTS NEW YORK

When no one seems to be listening, how far do you go to be heard? In December 2008, George W. Bush made a surprise visit to Baghdad for a press conference. And at the very end of his remarks, a shoe came flying past his head.  It was “the shoe heard around the world,” and countless jokes and memes ensued.  But in the pandemonium, many missed the story of the man at the center: Muntadhar Al-Zaidi, a weary journalist trying to get the world to see the Iraq War in a different light. Even fewer people know what happened to him after.  Nearly two decades later, Radiolab reporter Sarah Qari tracked Al-Zaidi down to learn the story of his life. What she found was a story about grief, anger, and the line where journalism ends and protest begins. Special thanks to Azmat Khan and Mustafa Salim.

More fallout from FIFA's private equity plan. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

Netradičná roztržka v OSN ukázala, aké napäté sú vzťahy medzi Trumpovou administratívou a Európou. Americkí diplomati na protest vyšli zo sály, keď tam Francúzi vystupovali s prejavom. Urazil ich status francúzskej misie, ktorý USA vyčítal, že už nie sú vzorom v oblasti ľudských práv.

In Albanien wächst der Protest gegen ein riesiges Luxusprojekt. Ivanka Trump und Jared Kushner wollen ausgerechnet in einem einzigartigen Naturschutzgebiet ein Hotel bauen. Viele Menschen fragen sich: Wie konnte die Regierung von Edi Rama das zulassen? Ist Korruption im Spiel? Vor allem junge Albanerinnen und Albaner gehen in Tirana auf die Straße. Sie haben die Nase voll von ihren Politikern. Inzwischen bekommt die sogenannte ‘Flamingo-Revolution' auch international viel Aufmerksamkeit – sogar Popstar Dua Lipa unterstützt sie.

Interview with Noah Lugeons about his recent talk and participation at the 10th annual Ark Park protest.  (also known as the genocide and incest park).Investing Skeptically:  Bonds!  Are they magic?

A 7-11 on Liberty Heights Avenue in Northwest Baltimore, Maryland, has become a flashpoint of community rage and resistance after Ade Oba Tokunbo (Stephen King), a 74-year-old resident, was attacked and brutally beaten there by six teenagers on July 7, 2026. The same location is also the site of multiple robberies and the murder of Victorious Swift in March of 2017. In response, “A Clarion Call,” a new coalition of local community organizations and residents, organized a rally at the 7-11 on Sunday, July 26, and led a community march into the store to demand the company implement policies that will keep customers safe and aid in the apprehension of the youth responsible for the July 7 attack. In this on-the-ground report, TRNN takes you inside the community rally held at the 7-11, near Mondawmin Mall, on July 26. Watch the video version of this report here. Additional links/info:Organizers of A Clarion Call have set up a GoFundMe for Ade Oba Tokunbo and are asking community members to contact ClarionCallBaltimore[at]gmail[dot]com if they have any information about the perpetrators of the July 7.Renee Anderson, Mike Hellgren, CBS Baltimore, “New video shows 74-year-old attacked outside Baltimore 7-Eleven by group wielding sword, assault rifle”Credits:Production: Maximillian AlvarezPost-Production: Maximillian Alvarez, Cameron Granadino, David HebdenBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Narendra Modi's 12 year rule of India has never looked so fragile.Weeks of protests have engulfed the country following the leak of a medical entrance exam paper, which forced nearly two million students to resit the test. Protestors hailed victory from the resignation of the education minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Saturday.On today's podcast, Hugh asks our contributor in New Delhi, Rahul Bedi, to explain the significance of the movement.What had fanned the flames, he said, was the description of unemployed young people as “cockroaches” by one senior government minister.Then, out of the ootheca hatched the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), a satirical movement that has channelled the frustrations of millions of young Indians who, in the words of Bedi, believe the country is increasingly dominated by corruption, privilege and vested interests.They're not alone.Farmers have again been protesting at the state of the rural economy. And another campaign has emerged against the government's ethanol-blended fuel policy, with some motorists arguing that petrol containing 20% ethanol reduces fuel efficiency and may damage engines.Bedi explains what these large movements mean for the strength and future of the Narendra Modi administration.

Šodien, 29. jūlijā, ASV, dzimtajā Dienvidkarolīnas pavalstī zemes klēpī gulda senatoru Lindsiju Greiemu.„Prusaku Tautas partijas” jauda Indijā. Mežu ugunsgrēki ir jau ierasts vasaras tveices pavadonis Eiropā. Aktualitātes analizē Sandis Šrāders, Latvijas Ārpolitikas insitūtas vecākais pētnieks un RTU Aizsardzības tehnoloģiju centra direktors, un Paula Markusa, Latvijas Televīzijas Ziņu dienesta ārzemju ziņu redaktore. Lindsijam Greiemam aizejot Šodien, 29. jūlijā, ASV, dzimtajā Dienvidkarolīnas pavalstī zemes klēpī gulda Lindsiju Greiemu, senatoru, vienu no ietekmīgākajiem un ārpolitikas procesos ieinteresētākajiem ASV likumdevēja pārstāvjiem un, cita starpā, pārliecinātu prezidenta Donalda Trampa sabiedroto. Greiems šķīrās no dzīves pēkšņi 11. jūlijā, 71 gada vecumā, kā tiek vēstīts, no aortas plīsuma, ko izraisījusi hroniska sirds un asinsvadu aterosklerotiskā kaite. Pagātnē gan Krievijas, gan Irānas propagandas rupori devuši mājienu, ka viņu valsts attiecīgie dienesti varētu mēģināt Greiemu novākt, taču, saskaņā ar varas iestāžu pausto, senatora aiziešanai ir dabiski iemesli. Lindsijs Greiems absolvējis Dienvidkarolīnas Universitāti ar jurista diplomu un septiņus gadus dienējis ASV Gaisa spēku juridiskajā dienestā, tai skaitā kā Gaisa spēku galvenais prokurors Eiropā, sasniedzot pulkveža dienesta pakāpi. Saistība ar bruņotajiem spēkiem nepārprotami noteikusi arī senatora pastāvīgo interesi par militārās stratēģijas un drošības jautājumiem. 1994. gadā Greiems tika pirmoreiz ievēlēts ASV Kongresā, kur izpelnījās ievērību kā viens no toreizējā prezidenta Bila Klintona impīčmenta procesa virzītājiem. Kopš 2002. gada Lindsijs Greiems bija Senāta loceklis. Viņš bija plaši pazīstams kā aktīvs bruņošanās budžetu un amerikāņu globālās militārās klātbūtnes aizstāvis, pārliecināts NATO alianses piekritējs. Viņš bija arī viens no tiem tālredzīgajiem Rietumu politiķiem, kurš atdzimstošā Kremļa impēriskuma draudus saskatīja jau kopš Krievijas agresijas pret Gruziju 2008. gadā un uzstāja, ka Putina režīms ir jāapvalda no spēka pozīcijām. Izraēlā, Ukrainā, arī Baltijas valstīs Lindsiju Greiemu piemin kā šo valstu uzticamu draugu un atbalstītāju. Vērienīgākās atvadu ceremonijas vakar notika Vašingtonā – atvadīšanās Kapitolija ēkā un bēru dievkalpojums Vašingtonas Nacionālajā katedrālē. Katedrālē atvadu runu teica arī prezidents Tramps, nodēvēdams Greiemu par „leģendu” un „Senāta gigantu”. 2016. gada vēlēšanu kampaņas laikā Trampam nācās uzklausīt no aizgājēja daudz netīkama, taču vēlāk abi kļuva par ciešiem sabiedrotajiem. Atvadu ceremonijā Kapitolijā Senāta vairākuma frakcijas vadītājs Džons Tūns pauda, ka aizgājējs pret savu likumdevēja darbu izturējies tik nopietni kā neviens, taču bijis arī nepārspējams, radot ap sevi jautrības un atbrīvotības gaisotni. Atvadīties no Lindsija Greiema ieradušies, starp citiem, arī Ukrainas prezidents Volodimirs Zelenskis un Izraēlas premjerministrs Benjamins Netanjahu. Zelenskis vakar ticies ar Trampu Baltā nama Ovālajā kabinetā, un pēc šīs tikšanās vēlreiz izskanēja informācija par iespējamu pretgaisa aizsardzības sistēmas „Patriot”raķešu ražošanas licences piešķiršanu Ukrainai. Ar prusakiem nav joki Indijas politisko veidojumu „Prusaku Tautas partija” raksturo kā politiskās satīras kustību. Tā radās šī gada maijā, kad Indijas Augstākās tiesas priekšsēdētājs Surja Kants nievājoši izteicās par jauniem ļaudīm, kuri aktīvi pauž viedokli sociālajos tīklos un medijos, kā arī iesniedz attiecīgus pieprasījumus varas iestādēm. Kants pierakstīja šai jauno ļaužu kopībai sociālu parazītismu un salīdzināja viņus ar prusakiem. Neuzmanīgā frāze izraisīja plašu rezonansi, un šādā noskaņojumā tapa publiskās komunikācijas stratēģa Abidžīta Dipkes iniciatīva – soctīklu politiskā kustība „Prusaku Tautas partija”. Nosaukums nepārprotami kariķē premjerministra Nerendras Modi vadītā spēka – Indijas Tautas partijas nosaukumu. Jau mēnesi vēlāk „prusaki” parādīja konservatīvajai varai savu politisko jaudu. Par iemeslu kļuva maija sākumā notikušā centralizētā medicīnas studiju iestājpārbaudījuma rezultātu anulēšana. Šis iestājpārbaudījums ir vispieprasītākais Indijā, un rezultātu atcelšana atstāja neziņā miljoniem reflektantu. Kā tiek ziņots, 12 jaunieši psiholoģiskās spriedzes dēļ izdarījuši pašnāvību. Jūnija sākumā, „prusaku” kustības aicināti, Deli ielās izgāja pirmie protestētāji. Sākumā premjerministra Modi valdība nepievērsa tiem uzmanību, taču pulcēšanās nerima, līdz jūlijā sasniedza jau desmitus tūkstošu dalībnieku. Galvenās prasības bija izglītības ministra Dharmendras Pradhana demisija, nozīmīgas izglītības sistēmas reformas un kompensācijas tiem, kuriem nodarījis kaitējumu lēmums par pārbaudījuma rezultātu atcelšanu. Protestiem pieslēdzās vairākas studentu organizācijas un opozīcijas partijas. Kritiskais lūzuma punkts iestājās 20. jūlijā, kad policija galvaspilsētā Ņūdeli neļāva protestētāju gājienam pietuvoties parlamentam, laižot darbā nūjas un asaru gāzi. Protestētāji par atbildi apmētāja policistus ar akmeņiem. Vairāki desmiti protestētāju tika ievainoti, varas iestādes ziņo par cietušajiem arī policijas pusē. Policistu brutalitāte izraisīja pretēju efektu, un protesti tikai vērsās plašumā, aptverot arī citas pilsētas. Acīmredzot varas virsotnē saprata, ka ar „prusakiem” nav joki, un nolēma upurēt vienu no premjerministra uzticamajiem līdzgaitniekiem, izglītības ministru Pradhanu – 25. jūlijā viņš paziņoja par savu demisiju. Šis ir pirmais tāds gadījums divpadsmit gadus ilgajā premjerministra Modi un viņa partijas varas periodā. Diemžēl no vairākām Indijas pavalstīm pienāk ziņas, ka varasiestādes, par spīti agrāk solītajam, arestējušas vairākus desmitus protestu dalībnieku. Kustība piedraudējusi, ka var atkal aicināt jaunatni ielās. Sagatavoja Eduards Liniņš. Vasara kā nelaime Mežu ugunsgrēki ir jau ierasts vasaras tveices pavadonis Eiropā, un šomēnes tādi jau masveidā plosās vairākos Francijas un Spānijas reģionos. Francijā visvairāk cietis dienvidrietumos esošais Žirondas departaments, kur uguns pietuvojusies tā centram, Francijas devītajai lielākajai pilsētai Bordo. Uguns strauji izplatījusies, postot mežus un laukus Francijas slavenajā vīna reģionā, un mazāk nekā četrās dienās izdedzinājusi vairāk nekā 420 kvadrātkilometrus, kas aptuveni četras reizes pārsniedz Parīzes teritoriju. Savukārt Spānijā skarti centrālie un austrumu reģioni, tai skaitā Spānijas galvaspilsētas Madrides apkaime. Spāņu iestādes ziņo, ka atsevišķi mežu ugunsgrēki reģionos ārpus Madrides kopumā ir izpostījuši aptuveni 770 kvadrātkilometrus. Dažos reģionos fiksēta arī ugunsvētru veidošanās, kas ir ekstremāla parādība, kad ugunsgrēka radītais karstums izraisa spēcīgas gaisa plūsmas, kas uztur un pastiprina degšanu. Šādos apstākļos ugunsgrēki var kļūt ievērojami grūtāk kontrolējami, radot papildu apdraudējumu gan glābšanas dienestiem, gan apkārtējām apdzīvotajām vietām. Ugunsgrēku rezultātā ir pieaugušas bažas par gaisa kvalitāti blakusesošajos Spānijas un Francijas reģionos. Abas valstis ir izsludinājušas ārkārtas stāvokli un evakuējušas vairāk nekā 330 000 cilvēku; vairākos reģionos slēgti autoceļi un pārtraukta satiksme. Ugunsgrēku dzēšanā iesaistīti tūkstošiem ugunsdzēsēju, militārpersonu un brīvprātīgo. Francija un Spānija lūgušas palīdzību citām Eiropas Savienības dalībvalstīm, aktivizējot bloka civilās aizsardzības mehānismu. Šī mehānisma ietvaros uz skartajiem reģioniem nosūtītas specializētās ugunsdzēsības lidmašīnas un citu tehnika. Meteorologi norāda, ka ugunsgrēku izplatību veicina ilgstošais karstuma vilnis un sausums, kas pēdējos gados Eiropā vasarās novērojams arvien biežāk. Šī vasara tiek raksturota kā šai ziņā ekstrēma – jūnijs bijis karstākais novērojumu vēsturē. Tiek prognozēts, ka līdzīgi karsta būs arī atlikusī vasaras daļa. Eiropas Komisijas Apvienotais pētījumu centrs jau prognozējis, ka šīs vasaras klimatiskie apstākļi negatīvi ietekmēs graudaugu ražas apjomu. Sagatavoja Eduards Liniņš un Artis Tomsons.

We all understand the emotional impact of grief, but its effects on the body are often overlooked. Forrest is joined by clinical psychologist and researcher Dr. Mary-Frances O'Connor to explore the physiology of grief. Dr. O'Connor explains how our brains and bodies organize themselves around the people we love, creating “maps” of their presence and relying on them for physical and emotional regulation. They discuss the health risks associated with bereavement, how to care for the healing body, ambiguous loss, the difference between grief and prolonged grief, and how we can gradually build a meaningful life around loss. About our Guest: Dr. Mary-Frances O'Connor is a Professor of Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry at the University of Arizona and Director of the Grief, Loss, and Social Stress Laboratory. She is the author of two books on grief: The Grieving Brain and The Grieving Body. Key Topics: 00:00: Intro 4:42: The map that no longer exists 12:00: Co-regulation: the attachment figure as an external pacemaker 16:35: Physiological effects of grief 24:53: Taking care of yourself after a loss 36:46: Protest, despair, and meditative practices 45:45: Prolonged grief and getting stuck in restoration 57:31: Progressive Muscle Relaxation vs mindfulness 1:03:00: Re-engaging with the world 1:15:42: Recap Support the Podcast: We're on Patreon!

A gun shop in Fallbrook got an email offering them money to give away lockboxes to active duty military. Their first reaction was the same one you are having right now: this smells like a Moms Demand Action front. So Jason Martin and his crew did the sensible thing. They dug into it before saying yes. What they found is a suicide prevention program called Pause to Protect, run through the University of Colorado and funded by the Department of War. A Marine walks in, shows an active duty ID, and walks out with a lockbox. No application, no paperwork, no personal information collected, nothing that looks like a registry. Jason sat on a panel of shop owners from around the country who all came in skeptical and came out of it the same way he did. Michael takes the whole thing apart on air, piece by piece, and lands where a lot of you will land: a free safe for a Marine is just a good deal. The part almost nobody talks about is in there too. Service members living in the barracks still have nowhere legal to keep a firearm, because no base in Navy Region Southwest has actually built a plan around the order allowing troops to carry on base. The rest of the show is stacked. Hawaii answered the Wolford decision by handing out free "no guns" signs to businesses, so the crew walks through what one of those signs actually does and does not do to you legally, in Hawaii and in California. AR-15s are back on Virginia shelves after the injunction. Michael has the update on Renna, the roster case he is a named plaintiff in, including the newly added AB 1127 Glock claim and the motion for summary judgment, plus why the Miller case still matters even after the Supreme Court takes up two assault weapons bans. Sam gets stumped (sort of) by a machine gun that only fires one round per trigger pull. Michael makes the case that protests do not work and lays out what does: elections, lawsuits, and culture. And Alisha closes with the story out of Cerritos, where a concealed carry holder stopped a man with a knife in the middle of a Sunday lunch rush in Los Angeles County. Chapters: 0:00 - Welcome, and who is at the desk this week 1:58 - What is on: Alisha's gun cleaning class (July 29) and Tactical Comms with John Baldwin (Aug 15, Oceanside) 5:10 - Corrections: the slung shot is a real weapon, and a fair point about what a CCW actually costs 14:06 - Dinner with Alan Beck after the Wolford win 17:00 - Hawaii's answer to Wolford: free "no guns" signs, and what that sign actually means legally 28:06 - Jason Martin of Fallbrook Guns and Ammo joins the show 44:40 - Pause to Protect: free safes for active duty, and who is really funding it 55:57 - Virginia: AR-15s are back on the shelves after the injunction 1:00:05 - Stump My Nephew: Old Dominion, the Supreme Court feathers, and a machine gun that fires one round per trigger pull 1:16:53 - Legal update: Renna, the AB 1127 Glock ban, summary judgment, and why Miller still matters 1:37:38 - Protests do not work. Elections, lawsuits, and culture do. 1:57:26 - The Curtin Call: a CCW holder stops a knife attacker at a Cerritos restaurant (Chapters are approximate and shift once the intro or cold-open is added in post.)

Post-award bid protests filed at the Government Accountability Office will not hold up the Office of Personnel Management's rollout of a governmentwide HR system. OPM spokeswoman McLaurine Pinover confirmed to FedScoop via email that all companies that were entitled to and requested a debriefing received one, and that all debriefings were completed “well over 10 days ago.” Per rules that govern bid protests before the GAO, that means that the nearly $400 million award the agency made to Oracle in June can no longer be challenged before the watchdog agency's adjudicatory body. The eventual 10-year award to Oracle came after a rocky start for the push to build a governmentwide HR platform. OPM initially awarded a sole-source contract — one without a competitive bidding process — to Workday in May 2025 to facilitate the Trump administration's HR modernization efforts, only to walk the award back shortly thereafter. OPM eventually launched open competition for a contract to establish a governmentwide HR system. That contract faced pre-award protests from IBM and Economic Systems, Inc., which were withdrawn or resolved, freeing up the agency to make its award. And ultimately, Oracle was announced as the winner. Most of the Technology Modernization Fund's projects have yet to achieve expected cost savings, according to the Government Accountability Office, but there's big money to be saved on the horizon. Two dozen projects are expected to reach savings of more than $1 billion, a figure that exceeds total TMF investments across its broader 68-project portfolio. Nearly a dozen of those have realized a combined $13.5 million in savings, while another 13 have not achieved savings at all, according to the GAO audit published Thursday. “While savings thus far have been small, the amount is not unexpected given that 21 projects — with expected savings of about $1.04 billion, or 98.3 percent of the total — anticipate achieving their savings in fiscal year 2027 or later,” the watchdog said in its report. Six TMF-funded projects that expected cost savings have been completed. Two were on track to meet their cost savings target. The watchdog found that the others missed the mark. A General Services Administration project went through “a major change that descoped planned work and reduced expected savings,” per the report. At least one other project met a similar fate, leading to less savings than initially planned. Higher-than-expected migration and transition costs led another project's predicted savings to not materialize. Seven other projects were cancelled.

Thirty-six years ago, the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law, guaranteeing civil rights for millions of Americans. But the movement that made that day possible began years earlier. One pivotal victory was won by a small, often-forgotten group of activists in Denver known as the "Gang of 19."On The Sunday Story, NPR's Joseph Shapiro and Colorado Public Radio's Stephanie Wolf trace the history of the disability rights movement—from the protests that secured accessible public transit to the modern-day fight to protect the hard-won right to live independently. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Episode 5539: MAGA Nationwide Protest Over Data Centers

The Boston Tea Party is the most misunderstood event in American history. Every schoolchild learns it was an antitax protest, proof that Americans have always hated paying taxes. But the Tea Act of 1773 was actually a tax cut. Parliament lowered the duties on tea to bail out the East India Company, a corporation deemed too big to fail, and the Sons of Liberty destroyed ninety thousand pounds of tea not because taxes were too high but because a distant government was using fiscal policy to serve corporate interests without the colonists' consent. The colonists of Massachusetts kept collecting taxes locally even as they defied the British, simply redirecting the money to a patriot treasurer. They didn't want freedom from taxation. They wanted the power to tax themselves. That distinction, argues Vanessa Williamson, is the key to understanding everything that has happened in American politics since. Today's guest is Vanessa Williamson, author of The Price of Democracy. We discuss how the Boston Tea Party was actually a protest against a corporate tax cut for the East India Company, not against taxation, why Shays's Rebellion terrified the founders into writing a Constitution deliberately designed to keep ordinary citizens away from the public purse, and how the Whiskey Rebellion revealed the pattern that would repeat across American history: when poorer people demand fairer taxation, elites respond with force or legal constraints or both. We look at how the Gilded Age Supreme Court declared the income tax unconstitutional, why it took a twenty-year populist campaign and a constitutional amendment to bring it back, and how Rockefeller's lawyers warned that a graduated income tax "realizes most completely the supreme danger of democracy." Williamson argues that free countries are high-tax countries, that authoritarian governments are bad at collecting revenue, and that the antitax movement in America has always been an antidemocratic movement, using supermajority requirements, property tax caps, and fiscal limitations to ensure that even when the people vote for a functioning government, the rules written by a previous generation's oligarchs prevent them from getting one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
