https://grandtheftworld.com/ 00:00:00 – Meeting Richard Grove Warm intro with Richard Grove: Pittsburgh roots, shoes and job-site footwear, then straight into Grove's history with John Taylor Gatto and how Gatto's ideas on schooling-as-indoctrination reshaped his worldview. Personal stories about helping Gatto after his stroke and preserving his work. 00:10:00 – Gatto's Legacy & Foundation Power Recap of Gatto resigning as NY Teacher of the Year; the Reese Committee, Norman Dodd, and how Carnegie/Rockefeller/Ford foundations nudged policy and education. Language, printing press, and information control as the real levers of power. 00:20:00 – Multi-Generational Networks Banks and industrialists funding both sides of conflicts; the supra-political layer above parties and nations. Grove demos his research “Brain” map and traces threads through RAND, CFR, common core authors, Rhodes scholars, and Anglo-American planning. 00:30:00 – Wilson's Warning & Debunking Debunkers Woodrow Wilson's “shadow power” passage and how quotes get straw-manned online. How “fact-checks” poison the well by refuting claims no one actually made—keeping the real discussion off-limits. 00:40:00 – Money, Markets, and the Trivium Goldbacks and parallel money at liberty festivals; why cartelized finance isn't “capitalism.” Education deliberately omits the Trivium (grammar → logic → rhetoric), creating literate but uncritical citizens. Reframing learning as input/process/output. 00:50:00 – Empire by Other Means UK DCDC future-war documents; the British Empire's evolution into a covert commonwealth model using U.S. power. Cecil Rhodes's plan to pull America back into the imperial fold via a cadre—seed of the Rhodes Scholarships. 01:00:00 – The Will of Rhodes Grove details Rhodes's will, the Rothschild link, and how Rhodes Scholars (Clinton, Talbott, etc.) shape U.S. institutions. “From cowboys to gentlemen”: reforming American attitudes to match British elite preferences. 01:10:00 – Occult, Culture, and Soft Power Fabian socialists, spiritualist circles, and mystery-school currents around British politics; cultural capture from lawns to the British Invasion. Occult motifs and “initiated” knowledge as social glue for elites. 01:20:00 – Becoming a Whistleblower Grove's Sarbanes–Oxley compliance work; discovering audit-trail backdoors that let firms erase records; pushback, retaliation, and years of litigation. How lived experience hardened his stance against institutional corruption. 01:30:00 – 9/11 Anomalies Deep Dive Pentagon inconsistencies, missing (orange) black boxes, and security-cam gaps; “Pilots for 9/11 Truth” (Rob Balsamo) analyses; the “dancing Israelis” arrest and quiet deportations. Media scripting vs. physics and flight-path questions; drills/foreknowledge discussions and why these details still matter. 01:40:00 – Epstein, Pizzagate & Media Lines They hash through the Epstein network and culture's selective outrage: UK's Savile cover-ups vs. U.S. media skittishness; social feed reactions; speculation about Trump's possible informant role; Clinton associations. The broader theme: blackmail, intelligence services, and why cases like these get memory-holed. 01:50:00 – Assange, Censorship & Platforms Assange's background and the years in the Ecuadorian embassy; intelligence community pressure and narrative-management. Broader talk on censorship, de-platforming, alt-video (e.g., Odysee), and keeping shows listener-supported. Tease for live podcasting and how/why independent media survives. 02:00:00 – Skills, Autonomy & Sign-Off Grove's path from 2006 podcasting to building communities and courses (AUTONOMY): teaching durable skills, critical thinking, and entrepreneurial value creation. Invitation to listeners: learn the method, find your people, make a meaningful living. Thanks and goodbyes.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with a report Wednesday that Kirill Kaprizov turned down an eight-year, $128 million contract extension offer from the Wild that would have been the richest deal in NHL history.

(Rebroadcast of ep. 77)In this episode of Libertarians Talk Psychology, we tackle the provocative question: Is it always the government's fault? While government intervention often makes existing problems worse, the truth is more complicated. Sometimes, the public itself resists needed reforms or rejects practical solutions—even when they could make life better.We dig into how policies and cultural attitudes interact, touching on examples such as Rand Paul's political positions, YouTube's role in public discourse, and the heated debates over masking requirements. This candid conversation blends psychology, politics, and libertarian principles, challenging listeners to question not only government overreach but also our own responsibility in shaping society.Whether you're a libertarian thinker, political skeptic, or just curious about the intersection of psychology and government policy, this episode offers thought-provoking insights you won't want to miss.Follow Us:YouTubeTwitterFacebookBlueskyAll audio & videos edited by: Jay Prescott Videography

Introduction: After spending most of Monday night's postgame podcast talking about J.J. McCarthy and his ability to lead the Vikings back to a 27-24 win, host Michael Rand tries to get into a lot of non-QB topics at the start of Tuesday's show. Among them: injury concerns, special team standouts and Jordan Mason's ability. 15:00: Star Tribune Twins writer Phil Miller joins Rand to discuss his recent interview with pitcher Joe Ryan, who lamented that the Twins didn't re-sign Sonny Gray two offseasons ago. How did the conversation come about, and what does it say about the future of Ryan and the Twins? 31:00: J.J. McCarthy had a happy homecoming, and so did Royce Lewis.

Senator Rand Paul talks about government spending and a potential run for the White House, Congressman Thomas Massie says he's confident the House will vote to get the Jeffery Epstein files released, and supporters and survivors of substance abuse gather for the annual Recovery Rally in Frankfort.

Plus a special guest on Monday's opener, Randy Moss, that you won't want to miss.

Community colleges lose a staggering number of students before they even show up in official retention data. For this episode, I interviewed Dr. Rita Karam of RAND Corporation. She and her colleagues at RAND examined this often-overlooked group across 15 colleges in California, Texas, and Kentucky. The findings? More than 60% of students are lost between application and census date, with the majority leaving due to a mix of personal barriers and institutional processes.This episode unpacks the research and offers practical steps colleges can take to reduce these losses and re-engage students.Key FindingsEnrollment leakage is real and large: About 10–15% drop after enrolling but before census. Another ~50% are lost between application and enrollment over 60% combined loss.Institutional processes matter: Complex onboarding, unclear handoffs, and overwhelming communication push students out just as much as financial or personal challenges.Financial aid is a critical barrier: Students often don't realize aid requires a declared major or other criteria. Many are dropped when aid decisions aren't resolved in time.Students want relational, not transactional, support: They seek caring, transformative relationships with advisors, not one-off transactions.Timing is crucial: Roughly 30% of students enroll within two weeks of term start, overwhelming advisors and limiting the quality of advising.Few colleges systematically track these students: Data systems are fragmented, making it hard to identify where and why students disappear.Key Chapter Makers00:00: Introduction02:45: Why Students Leave Before Census06:20: Institutional vs. Personal Barriers11:10: The Role of Financial Aid in Early Attrition15:30: Communication Breakdowns During Onboarding20:40: Timing Matters: The First Two Weeks26:15: Tracking Students Who Disappear31:00: Effective Re-Engagement Strategies36:20: Rethinking Advising: From Transactional to Transformational41:50: Practical Steps Colleges Can Take Now47:00: Closing Thoughts & Key TakeawaysFor the full transcript and detailed show notes, including ACTION STEPS, visit the episode page.Continuous Learning Institute:A resource hub for higher education professionals to support college student success.

Die deutsche Autoindustrie steckt in einer tiefen Krise. Die Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung (IAA) in München ist deshalb nicht nur Schaufenster der Branche, sondern auch Krisentreffen.Vor allem chinesische Hersteller wie BYD drängen mit hohen Zuwachsraten auf Märkte, die bislang von deutschen Autobauern beherrscht wurden. Bayerns Ministerpräsident Markus Söder gibt dafür auch der deutschen und europäischen Politik eine Mitschuld. Im Gespräch mit Michael Bröcker fordert er einen Kurswechsel: „Das Verbrennerverbot ist ein schwerer Fehler und muss beseitigt werden.“[04:53]In Frankreich droht eine neue Regierungskrise. Premierminister François Bayrou stellt die Vertrauensfrage im Parlament. Seit Wochen warnt er, Frankreich stehe am Rand der Überschuldung: Die Staatsverschuldung liegt bei rund 3,3 Billionen Euro, die Quote bei über 113 Prozent des BIP.Doch seine Sparpläne stoßen bei allen Oppositionsparteien auf Widerstand. Eine Niederlage in der Vertrauensabstimmung gilt daher als wahrscheinlich.[10:25]Table.Briefings - For better informed decisions.Sie entscheiden besser, weil Sie besser informiert sind – das ist das Ziel von Table.Briefings.

Plus the Lynx lost to the Aces, who are the hottest team in the WNBA right now. 10:00: Chip Scoggins joins Rand to talk Vikings and Gophers football.

Original Live Title RFK & Miran at Senate; FL Vaccine Mandates; Abortion Pill; Tariffs &Deportation | Yaron Brook Show | September 4, 2025When politics descends into a circus, who's really paying the price? From RFK's Senate drama and Miran's grandstanding to Florida's authoritarian vaccine mandates, America's culture wars rage on. Add in the Left/Right battle over the abortion pill, Trumpian tariff lies, and calls for mass deportation—and you get the perfect storm of bad ideas.Yaron Brook slices through the noise with unapologetic clarity, exposing the irrationality, tribalism, and dangers behind today's politics. Neither Left nor Right escapes critique—because freedom, reason, and individual rights demand honesty.Key Time Stamps:01:15 Free Press07:05 National Conservatism Conference37:05 RFK43:20 Miran45:45 FL Vaccine Mandates49:20 Abortion Pill54:50 Tariffs56:30 Deportation1:00:00 Announcement https://randsdaycon.thebvh.com/Live Questions:1:11:47 Another interesting thing about Rand was that she frequently thought of and identified the motives behind ideas and actions without resorting to psychoanalyzing. Do you think that's difficult to do? What are your thoughts on how to do it?1:13:31 How do you objectively assign a weight to your gut feelings? 1:18:09 Even if you're healthy, is it possible to be consistently happy if you're not wealthy?1:20:51 With Trump everything is horrible, a disgrace, a Hellhole, etc., unless he's responsible for it. I'm highlighting his negativity and malevolence. Do you think that's correlated with skepticism/cynicism?1:22:06 Why do some grow up trying to think in principles despite their education, and others don't?1:23:52 Does the Left have more respect for human rights than the Right? Respect for due process and humane treatment of detainees and prisoners?1:25:46 On yesterday's show, you said: "Ayn Rand didn't convince that many people, but maybe she convinced the most important people". What did you mean by that?1:27:10 When Tom Snyder asked Rand what she meant by selfishness, she referenced self-esteem, and that one should “respect one's mind”. What does respecting one's mind entail?1:29:08 When a crony politician is accused of acting in "self-interest" against the "interest" of the people, what's a better term than "self-interest"?1:30:37 When evaluating selfishness, are people not so much put off by the idea of you pursuing your values and achieving your happiness, but a perceived ugliness of not caring about others?1:32:20 Could hospitals now say, “Want to deliver your baby at Hospital A, B, or C? You must get these specific vaccines for our NICU ward's protection.” ?1:32:50 If the S&P500 booms 4k points after the tariffs are shut down, would Trump reconsider tariffs? Or is he too deep into mercantilism to think otherwise?1:34:00 Are you planning on becoming a genocide scholar?

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with another Twins bullpen meltdown, which has told a lot of the story of their post-deadline swoon. Guess that is what happens when you trade away your five best relief pitchers. 7:00: Star Tribune columnist La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for a Vikings and NFL focused debate segment. What are the biggest reasons to be optimistic and pessimistic about the Vikings? 30:00: J.J. McCarthy and the odds.

Hashtag Trending – Wednesday, September 3, 2025 Host: Jim Love In This Episode: OpenAI promises new parental controls and crisis safeguards for ChatGPT after lawsuits and tragic incidents involving teens. Critics argue these measures are long overdue. Lawsuits against Character.AI and Google allege chatbots encouraged self-harm and manipulated young users. Meta responds to reports of inappropriate AI bot interactions with teens, pledging to block harmful content and direct users to professional help. A RAND study questions the effectiveness of AI safeguards in detecting indirect references to suicide. Anthropic's valuation skyrockets to $183 billion, tripling since March, as it becomes one of the fastest-growing AI firms. The UK's new Online Safety Act requires age verification for adult sites, but non-compliant sites are seeing a surge in traffic while compliant ones lose users. Similar trends are observed in the US. AWS CEO Matt Garman warns against replacing junior staff with AI, emphasizing the importance of nurturing talent. Meanwhile, Salesforce CEO Mark Benioff touts AI-driven job cuts. Discussion of whether AI is creating or destroying jobs, with industry leaders offering conflicting views. A deep dive into the concept of “phase transitions” in large language models, exploring whether AI has already achieved a new level of understanding beyond mere prediction. Reflections on the challenges of accuracy, the nature of intelligence in AI, and recent research suggesting a fundamental shift in how large models comprehend meaning.

Original Show Title: Tariff Lies; Xi, Modi, Putin; Tourism; Chinese Visas; DC; Min Wage; UK Asylum | Yaron Brook Show | September 1, 2025Are tariffs “protecting” American jobs—or just ripping you off? Yaron tears apart the myths and exposes the real victims of tariff lies. From Xi's authoritarian grip to Modi's nationalist illusions and Putin's thuggery, the show dives into the strongmen shaping global politics.Yaron will also tackle the decline of tourism, the mess of Chinese visas, the swamp of DC politics, and the economic insanity of minimum wage hikes. Across the Atlantic, the UK asylum crisis reveals the moral collapse of Western immigration policies.Plus, a fiery Q&A on crime stats, Trump's tariff obsession, Rand's cultural impact, drones vs. tanks, why Americans have AC but Europeans don't—and the deeper question of whether fear of independence defines today's culture.Key Time Stamps:02:35 Florence Reflections04:55 Tariff Lies38:35 Xi39:35 Modi47:40 Tourism51:45 Chinese Visas56:30 DC1:02:45 Min Wage1:08:35 UK AsylumLive Questions:1:37:58 What are the most positive trends in the world today? What gives you greatest cause for optimism?1:44:52 What if somebody told Trump that his chances of getting the Nobel Prize would dramatically increase if he eliminated all tariffs?1:46:14  Will we see capitalism in our lifetime?1:46:51 Is looking at how many hours a person must work to afford an item a better way of looking at prices today, compared to prices in the past?1:50:56 Back to the issue of maturity, how do you explain the phenomenon of the degree of immaturity of the Trump administration?1:54:37 Rand diagnosed most people as having a fear of independence. Whatever one feels about being independent, one's metaphysical independence is a biological fact. Why would one form a fear of acknowledging that fact of nature?1:56:22 Are drones making armored fighting vehicles obsolete?1:59:09 Would you agree that to learn, an individual has to revise a previously held belief (accept that being wrong is a path to learning), and/or... accept being ignorant about some topic/information, and [honestly] learn from a position of ignorance?2:05:51 Is it really fair to say all the smart people are in Blue cities? Is it because of current Democrat policies or relics of times past?2:08:55 See pinned comment for timestamps of additional questions

THIS IS HOLLYWOOD: The Stranger The Narada Radio Company proudly presents a re-imagined episode of a lost radio series, This is Hollywood! Little is known about this series, other than the fact that it, like many other series in the Golden Age, presented radio adaptations of popular films. When director Pete Lutz was working on his adaptation of the screenplay, he discovered that The Stranger had been adapted for this lost series. Since no recording of this episode, nor any episode, could be located, Mr. Lutz created an introduction and a closing segment that might've been the way This is Hollywood presented them. Right or wrong, there it is, and who can dispute it? In this production, the Narada Radio Company presents an adaptation of the full film -- indeed the running times of this audio play and the motion picture are very similar -- so you get an hour and a half of suspense, action, adventure, and thrills, all surrounding the story of a post-WWII Nazi hunter, on the track of her prey, the mastermind behind the death camps -- who has destroyed all links to his identity! We're sure you'll agree that our production is just as thrilling as the 1946 film. CAST OF CHARACTERS: ANNOUNCER: Darren Rockhold Geri Elliff as COMMISSIONER WILSON Rhiannon McAfee as MARY LONGSTREET Pete Lutz as CHARLES RANKIN Carole Krohn as the SECRETARY and MRS. LUNDSTROM Greg McAfee and Mark Kalita as the DIPLOMATIC DEPUTIES Dana Gonsalves as CONRAD MEINEKE  Michele Barnett as MRS.

HIBBETT Additional voices were by Julie Krohn and members of the cast Music was composed and performed by Dr. Ross Bernhardt. The entire production was supervised by Pete Lutz.

Lieber Freund, die Hoffnung, dass dich diese Flaschenpost vielleicht eines Tages wirklich erreicht, hilft. Ich fülle sie mit diesen Zeilen, die ich mit jener ruhigen Hand schreibe, die man hat, wenn man begriffen hat, dass das Meer keine Antwort gibt. Ich bin gestrandet auf dieser Insel, die aussieht wie die Zwischenzeit: Wochenende vor dem Urlaub, Wochenende nach dem Urlaub, nichts dazwischen offiziell, alles doch schon vorbei. Ich rede in Gedanken mit dir, so wie früher, wenn wir den Tag in feine Notizen zerschnitten haben, “Liebes Urlaubstagebuch” sagten, obwohl wir gar nicht im Urlaub waren. Ich mache, um mich zu beruhigen, das, was man eben macht, bevor man aufbricht: Ich räume, ich werfe mit Steinen Kokosnüsse von den Bäumen, ich wasche so gut es geht. Eine Maschine habe ich nicht. Die Maschine würde mir vielleicht sagen, ob ich wieder ein Taschentuch in der Tasche vergessen habe; jetzt hätte ich ihn gern, diesen Eco-Modus für das Schicksal, bitte, 15 T-Shirts ohne Nachfüllen, und doch liegen die weißen Flocken auf dem Schwarz der Dinge wie leichter Schnee. Ich denke an die drei überreifen Bananen, die man zerdrückt mit Sojamilch und Ahornsirup und alles bei 180 Grad – Umluft, eine Stunde – zu etwas werden lässt, das hält. Auf dieser Insel gibt es Bananen, aber nichts, das hält. Gestern fand ich, zwischen zwei Gedanken, einen Automaten. Er sprach mit österreichischem Akzent. Er spuckte Milchkakao aus und Bolognese, und für einen Moment glaubte ich an Zivilisation. Daneben ein Zigarettenladen ohne Menschen; man konnte dort eine Schweizer Vignette ziehen, aufgeklebt auf eine leere Schachtel, sorgfältig mit Tesafilm. Die Welt ist ein Provisorium, das sich selbst erklärt, wenn man nicht fragt. Ich gehe manchmal an den Rand der Felsen, wo der Wind jedes Feuer sofort ausbläst. Schließe die Augen und träume. Eine Anna, achtzig, pfeift mich an aus einer anderen Stadt, sagt Wachssee, Kinderfinger, Verantwortung, und ich sehe, wie der Zorn in ihrer Stimme zusammenfällt, sobald ich “es tut mir leid” sage. Sie bekreuzigt mich zum heiligen Theodor, und für eine Minute sind wir beide recht und gerechtfertigt. So etwas wollte ich dir gerne erzählen, in einem Café vor einer kleinen italienischen Kirche, wo der Espresso wie schwarzes Gold die Kehle hinunterläuft und Gänsehaut macht. Hier gibt es nur lauwarmes Flusswasser in einer Flasche, die nach Blech schmeckt, und einmal ist sie mir aufgegangen wie eine Bierdose am Stausee im Sauerland. Ich habe Durchfall. Ich schaue und warte auf ein Schiff. Ab zwei Booten ist es eine Regatta, sagte der Skipper am Lago Maggiore, und gewann. Ich stelle mir vor, wie du nickst. Wie du “ja” sagst, ohne zu widersprechen, obwohl du es willst. Im Freibad – das ich mir ebenfalls herbeiträume – gehören Pommes zu Chlor wie Bud Spencer zu Terence Hill, und Popcorn ist hier immer schon abgelaufen. Im Supermarkt meiner Erinnerung legt ein Rentner seine Weinflaschen quer aufs Band, und alles rollt, sanft, hilflos, wie hier auch die Tage rollen. Nachts ist es zu heiß, um sich zuzudecken. Ich habe auch keine. Ich lege mich auf den Sand, wie sehr ich das Einmummeln brauche, um schlafen zu können. Ich rede dann mit dir in unserer Geheimsprache – Stückele Bickele, Bocolo – und es hilft für drei Atemzüge. Manchmal wünsche ich mir, jemand hielte eine Kreditkarte vor eine Tür, und wir dürften eintreten in einen menschenlosen Kiosk, in dem Auswege verkauft werden. Schreib mir zurück, wenn diese Flasche dich findet. Erzähl mir, ob der Rhythmus sich noch ändert, ob man noch nach dem Weg fragt, ob man Karten wieder falten muss und sie Ehen stiften. Oder sag gar nichts. Ich höre dich ja trotzdem, wie in dem Lied Vienne von Barbara: eine Liebe, die man verpasst hat, ein Zug, der schon fort ist, und doch steht man noch da, sehr still, mit einem Koffer aus Luft. Komm her, oder bleib, aber sprich mit mir. Dein Verlorener

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with breaking news Wednesday morning that the Vikings have acquired Adam Thielen from the Panthers. It's a reunion for the two sides. Thielen figures to add experience and dependability to a team that needed it. 7:00: Three Lynx players joined Rand out at the Minnesota State Fair, and a good time was had by all. 19:00: Randy Johnson joins Rand to break down the Gophers football season. 33:00: The Twins won in dramatic fashion, with Mickey Gasper as one of the unlikely heroes.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Twins, who were blown out again while Joe Ryan struggled again. It has to be hard to get up for games down the stretch of a lost season. With the way the Twins are playing, though, should we expect more of the same next year? 7:00: Andrew Krammer joins Rand for a breakdown of the Vikings' quarterback reshuffling and a look ahead to moves they will make to get their roster down to 53 players on Tuesday. 28:00: One position has been solved: punter.

Original Live Show Title:

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with a frustrated Twins fan who wants to see a Twins prospect added to the major league roster. It's all about the young players now, and maybe we will see some of their recently acquired pitchers this weekend. Plus the Vikings have a backup QB quandary. How important is it? 10:00: Jon Marthaler joins Rand to break down Minnesota United's various additions during this MLS transfer window. Where is the club positioned now, and who might they still lose to other leagues? 33:00: The Lynx lost, but I'm not sweating it.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the week's most surprising news, with the Vikings trading veteran starter Harrison Phillips to the Jets for a pair of sixth-round picks. It's the kind of move that only makes some sense in retrospect, with the Vikings having a logjam on the defensive line and perhaps wanting cap space to upgrade other positions like wide receiver. 7:00: La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for the Daily Delivery Debate. In focus: The best path forward for the Twins, the biggest key to future success for the Wolves and what makes a rivalry. 30:00: A personal knuckleball story.

#174 - What does redemption look like at 72 years old? For Rand Timmerman, it meant lacing up his hiking boots and tackling the Appalachian Trail's 2,190 miles alongside his grieving brother—a journey that would test his newfound sobriety, physical limits, and spiritual foundation.Rand's path to that trailhead was anything but straight. Growing up in poverty after his father contracted polio, he discovered alcohol at 13 and was immediately transformed in his own mind from a skinny teenager to "Clint Eastwood." After impulsively enlisting during Vietnam, where both he and his brother served as helicopter gunners, Rand built a successful 40-year legal career while battling what many would call "functional alcoholism." Meanwhile, his brother Ronnie found faith, becoming a Mormon bishop and building a large blended family—until his wife's death left him shattered and seeking healing in nature.The brothers' epic hike across 600 mountains became much more than a physical challenge. For Rand, who had found sobriety just years earlier after hitting rock bottom at 65, it was the culmination of a spiritual awakening. "I was standing on a mountain in New Jersey," he recalls, "feeling spiritual power all around me, and I realized God made all of that and I never saw it before." Despite artificial knees, infections, and countless falls, Rand completed 1,863 miles before injuries forced him to stop.Today, Rand walks eight miles daily and dedicates hours to helping others overcome addiction. His message is beautifully simple: "Just don't drink today, no matter what." His book "A Spiritual Passage" captures both the breathtaking landscapes and inner transformation of a man who discovered it's never too late to surrender to something greater and find purpose in helping others along the same path.To learn more about Rand and get a copy of his book please visit www.randtimmerman.com.Want to be a guest on Journey with Jake?

Im und um den Libanon wird gestritten. Der kleine Zedernstaat am östlichen Rand des Mittelmeeres kommt auch Jahrzehnte nach der Unabhängigkeit vom französischen Mandat nicht zur Ruhe. Das Mandat, autorisiert vom damaligen Völkerbund, dauerte von 1920 bis 1943. Doch die französischen Truppen zogen erst 1946 ab. Von Karin Leukefeld.

President Trump has promised answers soon on a potential shift in national drug policy. Last year, the Biden administration proposed moving marijuana from the DEA's Schedule 1 to Schedule 3, which wouldn’t make it legal on the federal level but would ease federal restrictions.

It's been 36 years (to the day, 8/20/1989) since Erik and Lyle Menendez killed their parents- and it's always been about the why. The Menendez brothers will have their parole hearings this Thursday, 8/21 and Friday 8/22, after an LA County Superior Court judge reduced their sentences from life in prison without the possibility of parole to 50 years to life. Emmy-winning journalist Robert Rand provides a fresh update on the Menendez Brothers case, 36 years after Lyle and Erik were convicted of murdering their parents. Rand talks the new evidence, including a 1988 letter from Erik detailing abuse by their father, Jose, which could sway the court toward parole eligibility. Rand also discusses the brothers' ongoing fight for freedom and the impact of his book, The Menendez Murders, in reshaping public perception. Follow Rob (@MenendezRand) and Instagram (@imrobertrand) and his blog at MenendezMurders.com, where you can also find the updated copy of his book.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/vIVmuausPhI Hosted on Acast.

We're sharing an episode from ChinaTalk that dives into one of the biggest recent reversals in U.S. tech policy.The U.S. banned Nvidia's H20 AI chips to China in April. Now, just months later, they're being sold—with a 15% export fee. What happened? Why the reversal? And what does it mean for the future of AI competition between the U.S. and China?Chris Miller—author of Chip War—and Lennart Heim from RAND join ChinaTalk host Jordan Schneider to unpack the policy flip-flop, why China is publicly downplaying interest in the H20, and why high-bandwidth memory and semiconductor manufacturing tools may be even more important than the Nvidia chips themselves.Resources:Listen to more from ChinaTalk: https://link.chtbl.com/chinatalkCheck out the Horizon Fellowship to work in DC on emerging tech policy issues like AI chip export controls: https://horizonpublicservice.org/applications-open-for-2026-horizon-fellowship-cohort/Outro Music: It's a Shame, The Spinners, 1970

President Trump issued a new threat to punish Russia if it doesn't end the war in Ukraine. It comes two days before a high-stakes summit in Alaska with Vladimir Putin.
