POPULARITY
Hugmyndafræði Trumps á ekkert skylt við hugsjónir Ronalds Reagans sem var forseti Bandaríkjanna 1980 til 1988. Það er umhugsunarvert að báðir skuli tilheyra Repúblikanaflokknum. Ronald Reagan trúði því að Bandaríkin hefðu ekki aðeins hag af frjálsum viðskiptum heldur bæru siðferðilega skyldu til að efla þau milli landa. Reagan var einn helsti talsmaður frjálsra viðskipta meðal stjórnmálaleiðtoga 20. aldar. Hann trúði því að opið og frjálst hagkerfi væri lykill að hagvexti, friði og framgangi frelsis um allan heim. Á meðan hann gegndi embætti reyndi hann að styðja við alþjóðlega viðskiptastefnu sem byggðist á lækkun tolla og aukinni samvinnu milli þjóða. Hann gagnrýndi verndarstefnu og tolla harðlega sem langtímalausn. Að hans mati gerðu slíkar aðgerðir innlendan iðnað veikari og síður samkeppnishæfan. Tolla- og verndarstefna sem Donald Trump hefur kynnt er hluti af vaxandi þjóðernishyggju víða um heim og gengur þvert á hugmyndir baráttumanna frelsis, s.s. Reagans, Friedmans og Hayeks. Þeirra sýn var skýr og rökræn - sýn sem byggir á þeirri einföldu sannfæringu að opið hagkerfi, þar sem fólk fær að versla frjálst yfir landamæri, gagnist öllum til lengri tíma. Fylgjendur Trumps halda því hins vegar fram að tollastefnan sé hluti af stærri sýn — uppstokkun alþjóðlegra viðskiptareglna og endurheimt efnahagslegs fullveldis. En þegar upp er staðið er hætta sú að stefna Trumps sé lítið annað en atlaga að frelsi, öryggi og hagsæld.
When I was a child, I remember the sense of security I had while Ronald Reagan served as our president. I also remember his farewell address to our nation and the great sense of loss that I felt knowing that he would no longer be serving as our nations president. John Winthrop preached in 1630 upon arriving in Massachusetts; in his sermon Winthrop declared his fellow pilgrims: For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. He also said of their future in Massachusetts: Beloved there is now set before us life and good, Death and evil, in that we are commanded this day to love the Lord our God, and to love one another, to walk in his ways and to keep his Commandments and his Ordinance and his laws, and the articles of our Covenant with him, that we may live and be multiplied, and that the Lord our God may bless us in the land we go to possess. John Winthrops sermon had a profound impact upon President Reagan for he placed that line about Winthrops hope and expectation that one day that land he and the pilgrims discovered, ...will be as a city upon a hill. I still remember President Reagans farewell address to our nation; I was in eighth grade at Neshaminy Junior High when I heard it. Reagans address is just over 20 minutes long, and although we do not have the time to listen to it, I would like to share with you his concluding remarks that I believe have affected our nation more than some of you may realize: I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace; a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity. And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That's how I saw it, and see it still. And how stands the city on this winter night?More prosperous, more secure, and happier than it was eight years ago.But more than that: After 200 years, two centuries, she still stands strong and true on the granite ridge, and her glow has held steady no matter what storm. And she's still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home. We've done our part. And as I walk off into the city streets, a final word to the men and women of the Reagan revolution, the men and women across America who for eight years did the work that brought Americaback. My friends: We did it. We weren't just marking time. We made a difference. We made the city stronger, we made the city freer, and we left her in good hands.All in all, not bad, not bad at all. There is a phrase introduced to our nation from another campaign that I was going to use for the title of this sermon... a phrase I have heard many Christians say or embrace that I have chosen not to use. I know that when some use the phrase, it has been and continues to be used out of a hope and desire for Americas good. However, I have instead chosen the phrase: America is a shining city on hill used by a president I still admire and respect. Jesus is Eternally the Same (vv. 7-9) What I dislike about a sermon series like Christians Say the Darndest Things is that today you will receive an exposition on Hebrews 13:7-14 without the benefit of seeing the wounder of chapters 1:1-13:6. We are skipping right to the end without gazing at the Christ who is, the heir of all things, through whom God also made the world. Right out of the gate in the book of Hebrews, we discover a Jesus who is, the radiance of the glory of God and the exact representation of His nature. In Hebrews we discover a Jesus who, upholds all things by the word of His power. The Jesus of Hebrews 13:8 is the same Jesus who, When he had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high (Heb. 1:1-3). Because Jesus is, the radiance of the glory of God and the exact representation of His nature (1:3), He is the Ancient of Days (Dan. 7:9). Jesus is the great I AM (John 8:48-59) because He is equal with the Father as the eternal Son (John 5:15-23). Jesus is He who was and is the Light of mankind because He is the Word who was in the beginning with God through Whom All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being (John 1:1-4). This same Jesus became flesh through the miraculous conception in Marys womb while still a virgin, He was born and lived among mankind yet without sin, and He lived for the purpose of dying for sinners like you and me on a cross. This same Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, and on the third day... He defeated sin and death by rising from the grave. For this reason, this same Jesus is highly exalted and upon Him is, the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Phil. 2:8-11). Jesus is the same yesterday in that when God the Father spoke creation into existence, it was Jesus the Son who completed it: for by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or rulers, or authoritiesall things have been created through Him and for Him (Col. 1:15-16). The reason why the earth remains in orbit and every atom and molecule remains in place is because the One who is also the same today is responsible for holding, all things together (Col. 1:17). Jesus is the same yesterday in that He was the One before Whom Abraham bowed (see Gen. 18:1-22). Jesus is the same yesterday in that He is the One who wrestled with Jacob (see Gen. 32:22-33). Jesus is the same yesterday in that He appeared before Joshua as the captain of the Lords army, and it was before Him that Joshua removed his sandals and worshiped (Josh. 5:13-15). Jesus is the same yesterday in that He was the One who was seen by King Nebuchadnezzar in the furnace as He kept Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego from perishing in blazing fire of the furnace (see Dan. 3:8-30). Jesus is the same yesterday. Listen, the same Jesus who provided Peter, John, and James the miraculous catch of fish that compelled Peter to fall to his knees and respond: Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man (Luke 5:8), is still the same today! The same Jesus cured lepers, made the lame walk, the blind see, and the dead rise... is still the same today! The same Jesus who died for sinners and rose from the grave is still the same today! The same Jesus who commanded us to make disciples (Matt. 18:19-20) and promised, you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judah, and Samaria, and as far as the remotest part of the earth (Acts 1:8), is still the same today! And listen, the same Jesus who promised that He would come back in the same way that He ascended into heaven (Acts 1:9), is the same Jesus yesterday, today, and forever! The point is that if you get Jesus wrong, or if you miss Him, or if you choose any person, thing, or ideology over Him... you will get everything else wrong! The message of Hebrews is that Jesus is a treasure that no other treasure can compare. This is why we are told in verse 8 to, Remember those who led you, who spoke the word of God to you; and considering the result of their way of life, imitate their faith. Those who truly spoke the word of God to you are those who did not get Jesus wrong! Jesus is the same yesterday. Everything in this World is Consistently Unsatisfactory (vv. 10-11) Because Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever... His life, death, and resurrection provide for us a more permanent solution to our sin problem. What this means is that Jesus cross is a better altar unlike ones used under the Old Covenant. The carcasses of the animals slaughtered on the Day of Atonement during Passover were taken out of the city to be burned; if they were thrown into a pile with the city and burned, they would have defiled the city. Not so with Jesus, for while living, he was led outside of the city to become a curse for us on the cross we deserved (Gal. 3:10-14), and by dying for our sins outside the gate, His blood is what makes us holy. What is the point? Here is the point: There is no person, there is no religion outside of Christianity, and there is no government that can do (if you are not a Christian) or has done (if you are a Christian) what Jesus alone can do. Paul Washer put it this way in his sermon preached to pastors some time ago answering the question as to how Jesus death on a cross for a few hours on a tree to save a multitude of men from an eternity in hell: Because that one Man is worth more of them put together. You take mountains and mole hills, crickets and clouds. You take everything. Every planet, every star, every form of beauty. Everything that sings, everything that brings delight, and you put it all onthe scale, and you put Christ on the other side and HE outweighs them all, HE outweighs them ALL! Brethren, this is the one we chase after![1] Compared to Christ, everything in this world is not only temporary but unsatisfactory. Jesus is the living water, and all the promises of this world together cannot compare. They are all broken and cannot deliver what they promise to deliver! The Old Covenant only provided a temporary solution to the sin problem of the Hebrew people; the work of the priests required them to remain standing for the need of a sin covering was ongoing. This is why just three chapters prior, we are reminded in Hebrews 10:1 of the following: For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the form of those things itself, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually every year, make those who approach perfect. Then in Hebrews 10:11-13, we are told of the only one qualified to address our sin problem: Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins; but He, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time onward until His enemies are made a footstool for His feet. (Heb. 10:1113) So, why is it that we are chasing after the shiny things of this world that cannot deliver what only Jesus is able to provide? Christian, if you have the One who is the same yesterday, today, and forever, why are you looking for something different? Why would you long for anything else when you have He who is the Bright Morning Star (Rev. 22:16)? Jesus is the same today. If You Have Jesus, You are Waiting for Something Greater (vv. 12-14) These next verses serve as the crescendo of the entire epistle, and they begin with the word Therefore and if the author of Hebrews was texting you Hebrews 13:7-14, you would see THEREFORE in all caps because it is a very big THEREFORE! In other words, in light of all that has been said from the very first sentence of this epistle to verse 11, Jesus also suffered outside the gate, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood (v. 12). What was accomplished on His cross for our sins outside the gate on Golgothas hill has done infinitely more than anything else you have chased after thinking that person, or thing, or ideology would bring you purpose, peace of mind, or pleasure. They cannot give you what only God is able to deliver! Dear Christian, Jesus sanctified you by dying for you, his corpse was in that tomb for three days, and the proof that Jesus sanctified you is in the fact that He marched out of that tomb three days later! Who or what can give you what Jesus has provided? If you are a Christian, Ephesians 1:7-8 is about you: In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our wrongdoings, according to the riches of His grace which He lavished on us. What Jesus provided on the altar of the cross is only available for those who receive it, and those who receive it will never be the same because of Him. The evidence that you have received what Jesus has made available to you is a desire to follow Him. To any and all who wish to know Him, must follow Him, for Jesus said: If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what good will it do a person if he gains the whole world, but forfeits his soul? Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul (Matt. 16:2426)? What we read in Hebrews 13:13 is no different: So then... So what? In light of the fact that Jesus is, the same yesterday and today, and forever (v. 7), and what has been provided on the altar of His cross for our sins (v. 10)... let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach (v. 13). The only reason anyone would do that is if they understood Jesus to be infinitely more precious and valuable than any person, any thing, any ideology, any city, or nation of this world. We chase after Jesus because in Him is life is and because He is life, He alone is the Light of mankind (John 1:4). We chase after Jesus because He is, the Light of the world and the one who chases after Him, will not walk in the darkness but will have the Light of life (John 8:12). Because we chase after Him and not the shiny trinkets of this world, He said of His Church: You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.... Your light must shine before people in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven (Matt. 5:14, 16). If you are a Christian, you are the light of the world because you have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb of God! He is the Alpha and Omega and He is the first and the last (Rev. 1:8, 17). It is before Him that the nations will stand in judgment and a day is coming when it will be from Him that earth and heaven will recoil in response to His holy and majestic presence! If you are a Christian, you belong to Him and because you belong to Him, you have no reason to fear Him who the tribes of the earth will mourn when He comes again (see Matt. 24:30). This may shock some of you and it may offend others of you, but you really need to hear this: America is not a shinning city on a hill! Here is what the Bible says about America and the nations that surround her: Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are regarded as a speck of dust on the scales (Isa. 40:15). Because we follow Jesus, we chase after another shinning city, we chase after His city... a city, which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God (Heb. 11:10). Because Jesus is the same yesterday and today, and forever, we live as foreigners, aliens, and strangers even in the United States of America. America cannot be our shinning city on a hill because we are promised something infinitely greater: For here we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking a city which is to come (Heb. 13:14). Here is what Revelation 21:23-27 says about the city we really belong to: And the city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God has illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb. The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it. In the daytime (for there will be no night there) its gates will never be closed; and they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it; and nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying, shall ever come into it, but only those whose names are written in the Lambs book of life. If America is a shinning city on a hill, it is nothing more than a tiny piece of glitter in comparison to the city we really belong to, and what makes the city we are seeking, that is to come, infinitely more beautiful is the Jesus who outweighs them all. He is the same yesterday and today, and forever! [1] Shepherds Conference 2016 | General Session 9 - Paul Washer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkqVZm9-7jc)

Thank you for downloading the episode, my name is Arlina, and Ill be your host. Today I have the honor of sharing a listeners story! Reagan is joining me today to talk about her experience with alcoholism, relapses, and how shes maintaining her sobriety today. I was reminded that so many of us had painful childhood experiences, and the lasting effect that can have on us in adulthood. Reagan bravely shares her story so that maybe someone else who is suffering, can find some hope for themselves too. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think! =J
De inauguratie van de 47e president begon bij steenkoud weer, zodat men de ceremonies schielijk naar binnen verplaatste. De priesters in het oude Rome hadden wel raad geweten met zo'n voorteken.Ook de verhoudingen in Washington zelf en met bondgenoten wereldwijd zijn ijzig, Sommige trouwe vrienden als Denemarken en Canada moeten vrezen of Donald J. Trump hen wil laten voortbestaan als soevereine naties. Wat staat het Atlantische bondgenootschap, de EU en ook NAVO-partner Nederland te wachten?***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door de Atlantische Commissie en met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger wijzen allereerst op twee wezenlijke feiten. Met zijn tweede termijn begint Trump aan vier jaar waarin hij geen herverkiezing kan verwachten en hij sneller een 'lame duck' kan blijken dan hij nu verwacht of dan zijn ego aankan. Hij zal daarom heel precies zijn strategie moeten bepalen: wil ik een tweede termijn à la Dwight Eisenhower of een à la Ronald Reagan?Het tweede wezenlijke feit: de NAVO kent heftige fasen van identiteitscrisis gedurende heel haar 75-jarig bestaan. En daarin komen opvallend vaak dezelfde conflictpunten en actoren langs.Al onder Eisenhower koos Amerika voor een eigen strategie; vond dat Europa voldoende 'Wirtschaftswunder' kende en meer zelf kon betalen. Het Europese antwoord daarop flopte. De Cubacrisis toonde John F. Kennedy dat die strategie onhoudbaar was gebleken en dat zorgde vervolgens voor de 'flexible response' koers bij de kernwapens. Daarin moest Europa nadrukkelijker meedoen. De Franse president Charles de Gaulle zag dat een slag anders en trok zich terug.Onder Jimmy Carter en Reagan kwam de volgende identiteitscrisis. Ons land leende zijn naam er zelfs aan uit: 'Hollanditis'. Opnieuw moest Europa meer willen doen en wat Carter deed met de neutronenbom was opnieuw een plotselinge overval. Reagan gaf deels veel meer vastigheid, deels verbijsterde hij met zijn romantische science fiction van Star Wars. Opnieuw koos Frankrijk ervoor een eigen, Europees alternatief te ontwerpen: Eureka.Reagans vaste koers én romantiek ontregelden het Kremlin. Michail Gorbatsjov poogde een vlucht naar voren, maar zijn droom van 'een Europees Huis' na ommekomst van het Warschaupact én NAVO beide werd door George H. W. Bush én Vaclav Havel vakkundig weggespeeld. Oude rot Richard Nixon zag toen al wat in aantocht was: imperiaal autoritarisme vanuit Moskou.Daarin zijn we verzeild sinds MH 17, de Krim en de overval op Oekraïne. Wat wacht ons nu? Moet secretaris-generaal Mark Rutte zo'n volgende identiteitscrisis zien te managen? Moet premier Dick Schoof geopolitiek gaan bedrijven en gigantisch gaan investeren, terwijl PVV, BBB en NSC alle kanten uit schieten? Met wie dan en hoe?Opmerkelijk is wat EU-president Antonio Costa onderneemt. Hij wacht niet af en handelt, meteen al met een ingelaste top van EU-leiders mét Britten en mét Rutte. Een andere geest heerst in Brussel, mede aangemoedigd door Polen en de Balten. De gevolgen voor de perikelen rond de Voorjaarsnota in de coalitie laten zich raden.De NAVO-top in juni kon daarmee Den Haag niet alleen logistiek en qua veiligheidsmaatregelen compleet overhoop halen. We weten bovendien nog niet hoe - bijvoorbeeld door Trumps heffingenbeleid en deals met Vladimir Poetin - de verhoudingen binnen de NAVO zullen zijn. En moet het kabinet bijvoorbeeld dan al een helder lange termijn investeringsplan à 3,5% BBP voor Defensie klaar hebben, samen met de EU-collega's?Intussen lanceert Trump geopolitieke vuurpijlen die erop gericht lijken aan Xi Jinping en Poetin uit te stralen dat hij voor hen niet wil onderdoen in disruptieve ambities. 80 jaar geleden vertrok FDR na nog zo'n steenkoude inauguratie meteen richting de Krim. Daar verdeelde hij met Jozef Stalin en Winston Churchill de naoorlogse wereldorde in invloedssferen. Trump lijkt ook van zoiets te dromen, inclusief een Nobelprijs. Komt er een Jalta 2.0?***Verder luisteren469 – Nieuwe kruisraketten in Europa?

De uitslag van de Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen op 5 november 2024 kwam veel sneller dan verwacht. Donald Trump won. Inmiddels wordt dit resultaat door kenners diepgaand geanalyseerd; cijfers uitgeplozen, trends vastgesteld. Veel van wat de vele zelfbenoemde Amerika-deskundigen vertelden op ‘the day after' blijkt toch echt anders te zitten.Het was bepaald géén aardverschuiving. Dit was niet 'the greatest comeback in history'. Er is geen sprake van een ongekend mandaat. Het is niet de sprong naar een nieuw tijdperk. Deze uitslag doet denken aan 1828. En het meest nog misschien aan 1940, althans zoals het ging in de roman The Plot Against America.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Maar historisch uitzonderlijk is het feit dat hij voor de derde keer op rij minder dan de helft van de kiezers kon overtuigen. Hij won ook duidelijk minder kiezers dan Joe Biden in 2020 en overschrijdt de 50% niet, bij 76,7 miljoen stemmen. Harris haalde 74 miljoen stemmen en net iets meer dan 48%.De smadelijkste landslide was die van 1992. Jaap en PG vertellen over het drama van George H.W. Bush die ten onder ging tegen de gouverneur van Arkansas, Bill Clinton, hoewel die maar 43% won. De spelbederver was 'de Berlusconi van Texas', Ross Perot. Aan niemand doet Donald Trump méér denken.Episch waren de aardverschuivingen van Ronald Reagan in 1980 en nog meer in 1984. En de allergrootste overwinning was die van 1964 door president Lyndon Baines Johnson. Ook een zeer kleurrijke Texaan. Maar er schuilde ook tragiek en verdriet achter deze ongeëvenaarde triomf.2] Niet dé comebackJD Vance riep op verkiezingsavond: “The greatest comeback in history”. Viktor Orbán leende ‘m meteen. Maar het is onzin.Trump lag de hele tijd vóór op Biden in de polls en Harris moest zich als underdog juist terugvechten. De GOP had het Huis en de halve Senaat ook al. Ze knokten samen tot het 50/50 werd. De echte comeback kid was Kamala Harris dus, maar ze scoorde net niet hoog genoeg.Welke presidenten waren wel zulke electorale tovenaars? Wie kwamen er roemrijk terug uit verloren posities? Diezelfde Bill Clinton in 1996. Jaap en PG vertellen hoe de Republikeinen de overwinning op de geheel mislukte eerste ambtstermijn van 'The man from Hope' zich uit de vingers lieten glippen. Een aanslag, een aarzelende kandidaat die bedankte en een extremistisch financieel beleid deden de Republikeinen toch nog de das om.De klassieke comeback was natuurlijk Harry Trumans triomf in 1948. Zijn tactieken en zijn strategie had team-Harris heel goed moeten bestuderen. Hij negeerde zijn opponent en streed tegen het 'do nothing Congress' en won in de rurale streken.3] Geen echt mandaatTrump haalde niet meer dan 50 procent, won veelal dunbevolkte regio's en had geen heldere to do lijst. Zijn overwinning in het Huis is nipter dan ooit in de geschiedenis en in de Republikeinse fractie in het Huis van Afgevaardigden is het permanent gekrakeel.Vergelijk dat met eerdere presidenten. Barack Obama won fors in 2008 en met een glasheldere missie: een grote stimuleringswet tegen de kredietcrisis en enorme werkloosheid en de gezondheidszorg met Obamacare. Ook Reagan, LBJ en al helemaal Franklin Delano Roosevelt hadden een uiterst scherpe politieke focus op wat hun overwinning hen mest opleveren.4] Geen nieuw tijdperkHet was Harris die zei: sla de bladzij om naar een nieuwe toekomst. Trumps campagne was allereerst wraak op het mislukte verleden. Wraak op zijn flop van 2020 toen in de pandemie de kiezers liever 'a safe pair of hands' kozen. Hij beloofde hen nu daarom een glanzend verleden.PG stipt de vele gouwe ouwen aan uit het Amerikaans verleden waar Trump mee kwam. Van een wet tegen illegalen uit 1798 tot het campagneliedje uit 1984, bij Reagans triomf. Van tol uit 1885 tot het afschaffen van het ministerie van Onderwijs in 1980. Zelfs Trumps plan met abortuswetgeving en dat onderwijsbeleid waren hondenfluitjes naar het 19e-eeuwse Zuiden.Trump staat dan ook in stil contrast met Republikeinse matadoren uit vroeger tijden. Van Theodore Roosevelt die de macht van kartels brak tot Dwight D. Eisenhower die brede welvaart voor de middenklasse vooropzette en grote infrastructuur. En natuurlijk Reagan met zijn fiscale hervormingen en het winnen van de koude Oorlog.5] Hét rolmodelWaar spiegelt Trump zich dan aan als hij opnieuw het Witte Huis betreedt? Voor zichzelf is hij 'the greatest president ever'. Maar er is een opmerkelijke voorganger waarover hij vaak vertelt. Andrew Jackson. Die regeerde van 1829 tot 1837 en zijn jaren waren net zo turbulent als die van Trump.Hij was de eerste 'niet-elite' president, een generaal die het idool was van de gewone man en vrouw. Ook hij wilde wraak op een hem gestolen verkiezing. Hij haatte de elite en was een demagoog die zich van niemand of de wet iets aantrok. Met iedereen maakte hij heibel, zelfs ook hij met zijn vicepresident. "De tolk van de meerderheid en haar hartstochten" schreef zijn tijdgenoot Alexis de Tocqueville.Maar omdat Trump eigenlijk de hoofdpersoon is uit een tv-serie, een fictief personage, kan het niet verrassen dat hij meest lijkt om die president uit die magnifieke roman van Philip Roth. Dat verhaal speelt in 1940 en de kandidaat van de America First Party wint van FDR. De overeenkomsten met nu zijn groot.***Verder luisteren459 – Rolmodel George Washington405 - De Amerikaanse democratie in gevaar: het gevecht tussen Biden en Trump360 - 4th of July: Mar-a-Lago, de plek waar het al 100 jaar gebeurt345 - Leiders op leeftijd.

In this episode, we take Dominick Dunne through many decades of his turbulent career, and get our man Nick redeemed in the Hollywood scene in the mid-1990s. Dunne knew the Bloomingdales and the Reagans socially back in his Hollywood halcyon days in the 1960s, but was most certainly booted out of their circle by his 1970s downfall. With the publication of his 1984 coverage on the murder of Vicki Morgan, and his subsequent roman a clef An Inconvenient Woman, many folks would not have anticipated that Dunne would get back into the good graces of the West Coast Queens, Betsy Bloomingdale and Nancy Reagan. Dunne does that, and so much more. Included in this episode are so many familiar characters from our ongoing investigation, and a few new characters too, including Jerry Zipkin, Heidi Fleiss, Alfredo de la Vega, Marcia Clark, Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Jackson and his chimpanzee too.

Recently, President Joe Biden delivered a speech in France to mark 80 years since the world-altering D-Day invasion. Strikingly, elements of his address bore a distinct likeness to a speech previously delivered by former President Ronald Reagan. The likenesses were so strong, it raised eyebrows and sparked conversation about the potential of content duplication from Reagan's much-lauded address. The start of Biden's address harkened back to a similar commencement by President Reagan. Where Reagan set the scene saying, 'At dawn on the morning of the 6th of June, 1944', Biden paralleled with an uncannily similar introduction. His recounting of the arrival of two hundred and twenty-five American Rangers echoed Reagan's vivid description of the same historical moment. Both speeches memorialized the audacious courage of the Rangers. Biden laid out their heroic climb: 'They launched their ladders, their ropes and grappling hooks, and they began to climb', eerily reminiscent of Reagan's oration, 'They shot rope ladders over the face of these cliffs and began to pull themselves up.' The parallels, far from random or coincidental, nudged the similarity towards plagiarism. Biden's painting of the Rangers' valorous response when faced with Nazi resistance aligned almost identically with Reagan's. According to Biden, 'When the Nazis cut their ladders, the Rangers used the ropes, and the Nazis cut the ropes. The Rangers used their hands.' Reagan's words had previously encapsulated this same spirit: 'When one Ranger fell, another would take his place. When one rope was cut, a Ranger would grab another and begin his climb again.'See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hur kommer det sig att Trump kan låta som en förvirrad uteliggare och ändå gå hem? Ingen minns Theodore Sorensen eller ens Peggy Noonan, JFK:s och Reagans talskrivare. Jimmie Åkesson har större problem när ryssen blir en del av deras tomtefabrik. Björn Linnell skriver utmärkt om sovjetiska hamburgare och får oss att minnas Under strecket i SvD, på den tiden Svenskans kulturredaktion inte var klickstyrd. Iran, kommer vi överens om, är den verkloiga orsaken till blodbadet i Mellanöstern. Följaktligen talar nästan ingen om det. Nu är Iran också sponsorer för svensk maffia. Kungahuset delar ut ordnar och ABBA är värdiga mottagare, även om de inte niger. Rob Hale är ett gott exempel på hur man lär ut filantropi. Striden om Dalslands poesipris mindre så. Athena Farrokhzad är visserligen en vänsteristisk sektledare och politisk kommissarie, men har man sagt att man backar ett pris får man stå för det. Cancellering är aldrig bra. Och Susannas obefintliga lokalsinne motsvaras kanske av Johans obefintliga tidsuppfattning. Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/hakeliuspopova. Hosted on Acast.

Hur nära var Nato kollaps under kalla kriget, och varför slutade Frankrike att samarbeta med USA och Storbritannien under 1960-talet? Suezkrisen 1956-1957 innebar stora påfrestningar för Nato, men det skulle inte bli den enda gången som samarbetet hängde löst. I själva verket har alliansens sammanhållning genomgått många kriser ända fram till kalla krigets slut.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden pratar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om Natos utveckling, från De Gaulles utträde ur det militära samarbetet till Euromissile-krisen och Reagans ”stjärnornas krig” under 1980-talet.En vattendelare i alliansens utveckling blev John F. Kennedys tillträde som president 1961. Med JFK slutade alliansen att vara ett mål i sig själv, och i stället blev den snarast ett verktyg för amerikansk utrikespolitik. Samtidigt klagade Frankrike, och inte minst den ny-tillträdde franske presidenten, Charles De Gaulle, på att Nato inte användes aktivt även utanför Nordatlanten och Europas omedelbara närområde.Frågan om kontroll över kärnvapnens användning blev också ett problem. De Gaulle ansåg att Frankrike skulle ha fullständig kontroll över sina militära styrkor och beslutsfattandet över nationell säkerhet. Det skulle inte ligga i amerikanska händer. Under 1960-talet drog Frankrike sig tillbaka från Natos militära planering och utvidgade istället sitt eget kärnvapenprogram. Beslutet var logiskt utifrån de slutsatser som kunde dras av händelserna under Suezkrisen. Utan egna kärnvapen åtnjöt man ingen respekt på den säkerhetspolitiska arenan.Under slutet av 1970-talet kom nya kriser som pressade alliansen. Euromissile-krisen, som utspelade sig under början av 1980-talet, var en period av intensiva spänningar mellan Nato och Warszawapakten. Euromissile-krisen intensifierades under den första hälften av 1980-talet och ledde till massiva protester och demonstrationer mot kärnvapen i flera europeiska länder, framförallt i Västtyskland.Emellertid lyckades Ronald Reagan och Michail Gorbatjov under sina möten på Reykjavik-toppmötet 1986 undanröja den direkta risken genom att diskutera omfattande nedrustning, även om en konkret överenskommelse inte nåddes förrän senare.Den senare underteckningen av INF-avtalet 1987 innebar avvecklingen av både Pershing II och SS-20-missilerna, vilket avsevärt minskade hotet och bidrog till att mildra spänningarna under slutet av det kalla kriget. Euromissile-krisen blev därmed en viktig episod som visar hur diplomatiska insatser och nedrustningsförhandlingar kunde minska de potentiella farorna för kärnvapenkonflikter i Europa.Bild: Protest i Bonn mot kärnvapenkapplöpningen mellan Nato och Warszawapakten, 1981, Foto: Rob Bogaerts / Anefo, Wikipedia, Creative Common.Klippare: Emanuel Lehtonen Hosted on Acast.

For our season nine finale I have a legendary journalist, Laurence Leamer, here to talk about his book Capote's Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era, which is the basis for the new Ryan Murphy show on FX, Feud: Capote vs. the Swans. (I loved the first iteration of Feud—about Bette Davis and Joan Crawford—and I love everything Ryan Murphy does.) The show has a cast as deep as any ocean: Naomi Watts. Diane Lane. Demi Moore. Calista Flockhart. Chloe Sevigny. Molly Ringwald. And Tom Hollander as Truman Capote. It premieres on FX on January 31 (and the next day on Hulu) and it will be appointment television for me. Through this book, this series, and this conversation, we dip our toe into New York City high society, into the world of Truman Capote and his “Swans”—glamorous women who were Capote's closest confidantes. Babe Paley, Slim Keith, CZ Guest, Gloria Guinness, Pamela Harriman, Lee Radziwell, and Marella Agnelli were not just beautiful and wealthy, but intelligent and interesting. Then, enter the “feud” portion of the program: Capote wrote a piece for Esquire called “La Cote Basque 1965,” in which he puts the Swans' dirty secrets in black and white, and in print for the entire world to read. The women cut Capote off totally; it was social suicide, and it led to Capote's downfall that ultimately resulted in his death. Why did he do this? He thought they'd be too dumb to know the piece was about them. It was one of the worst decisions he could have ever made. Here to tell us all about it is the legendary Laurence Leamer, who is regarded as an expert on the Kennedy family and who has written biographies of not just the Kennedys but also the Reagans, Johnny Carson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ingrid Bergman, and Donald Trump's resort, Mar-a-Lago. By the way, I have to throw this detail in here—his book about Mar-a-Lago was controversial and banned him from the resort for life. Not unlike that detail, this book and this conversation are as compelling as it comes.

The Reagans, a strong and loving couple For conservative America, Ronald Reagan is THE most legendary and charismatic president. Donald Trump, in fact, generously borrowed his 1980 campaign slogan: "Let's make America Great Again." With his wife Nancy, they formed a strong and deeply loving couple in the White House. However, they had originally set out to do something else: both of them pursued careers in Hollywood, where they first met. The story of this journey is to be heard in this episode.

You recognize the voice, of course, but do you recognize the passage? It's from one of the most touching moments in the President's political career, when he bid his fellow Republicans adieu at the Republican National Convention in New Orleans in 1988. 35 years ago.After eight years in Washington, it was time to say goodbye…but it wasn't easy. Nancy Reagan tried to summarize the feeling by saying that…there were times to enter, times to stay and times to depart. And it was time…for the Reagans to step back and hand the baton to his Vice President George H.W. Bush, the new presidential candidate for the Republican Party. To find the right words for such an important moment, the President called on wordsmith and White House Speechwriter, Ken Khachigian, whom you may recall helped the president draft his first inaugural address along with several other keynote addresses throughout his presidency. Although President Reagan formally said farewell to the nation in the Oval Office the following January, he used his speech at the 1988 Republican National Conference to thank the nation and to encourage his former opponent and two-term vice president, George Bush, to “Win one for the Gipper.” Earlier in the day, a special tribute to Mrs. Reagan had taken place, and, without missing a beat, the President continued in his remarks to celebrate her significant role as First Lady. On an enormous stage in the New Orleans Superdome, the 40th President took a deep breath, gazed across the expanse of those loyal devoted souls who helped to put him in the Oval Office…and he began to speak. Let's listen to a bit…

You probably associate the so-called "War on Drugs" with the Reagans. Or maybe, more correctly, with the Nixon administration. But the government's anti-drug policies started decades before that.And, as we discuss in this week's episode, those policies were often motivated by things other than public health and safety. Instead, they targeted - and continue to target - immigrants and communities of color. This episode digs into the history of America's War on Drugs, featuring guests Jason Ruiz and Yasser Arafat Payne. MAKE A DONATION TO SUPPORT OUR WORK!

The Reagans downplayed the story, but soon reporters began to dig into their longstanding use of star charts and numbers, dating back to their time in Hollywood. Jody, Niki, and Kellie are joined by podcast host Mangesh Hattikudur to talk about the Reagan's relationship with astrology, and other ways in which presidents have sought guidance and comfort.

I remember Sunday afternoons walking along the sidewalk to my grandmother's house. As my brother and I neared the door, the aroma of rich and thick marinara sauce filled the air. I could actually taste the fresh basil, garlic, and pancetta the moment we stepped inside. That memory and many others have stayed with me for life. When I close my eyes, I can easily go back in time to that dinner table with a bowl of meatballs and a plate of rye bread at its center. I see the faces of loved ones—many long gone, but not forgotten.I said it before and it bears repeating, I am on a journey filled of Culinary Rapture, being carried away by the execution, presentation, flavor and taste of food.

In today's podcast we'll focus on President Reagan's special relationship with her royal highness Queen Elizabeth the second. In 1982, the Reagans visited Her Majesty and the Duke of Edinburgh at Windsor, where the Queen and Ronald Reagan carried out a specially orchestrated ride through Windsor Great Park, trailed by more than 150 photographers and a Range Rover full of Secret Service agents. (Nancy Reagan, meanwhile, joined Prince Philip in a four-in-hand carriage for a tour of the estate.) In the second half of this podcast, we'll cover their remarks when the Reagans later hosted Elizabeth and Philip at their home of Rancho del Cielo near Santa Barbara in 1983, where Her Majesty had her first experience of Tex-Mex cuisine, feasting on tacos, enchiladas, and what she referred to as “used” (i.e., refried) beans.
What image forms in your mind when you think of productivity? An assembly line? Spreadsheets? Business suits or workplace uniforms? In the ancient world, productivity didn't conjure images like these. Instead, it referred to crop yield and fruit bearing. This agrarian imagery helps us understand productivity through a biblical lens. Jesus taught, By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit (John 15:8). Who doesn't want to have a truly productive life--to bear much fruit? But how does this happen in the places we hold dear--the home, workplace, and in our communities? We often feel overworked and overrun, defeated and discouraged. The world says be productive so that you can get all you can out of this life. The Bible says be productive so you can gain more of the next life. In Redeeming Productivity, author Reagan Rose explores how God's glory is the purpose for which He planted us. And he shows how productivity must be firmly rooted in the gospel. Only through our connection to Christ--the True Vine--are we empowered to produce good fruit. This book shows how we can maintain the vitality of that connection through simple, life-giving disciplines. Readers will discover manageable applications like giving God the first fruits of our days. Additionally, Reagan discusses how our perspective on suffering is transformed as we see trials as God's pruning for greater productivity.

Det var en anden tid i 1982, men på mange måneder en tid som minder om noget vi står i dag. Reagans midtvejsvalg i 1982 var en katastrofe, men han holdte ved. Mads og David laver et tilbageblik. Og så er der (ikke overraskende) kommet længe ventet sigtelser mod Trump. Denne gang om hans påståede formue, og hvordan den angiveligt at snydt systemet. Der er altid fart på i USA, og denne uge var ikke en undtagelse! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear readers,Due to the holiday weekend, this week’s schedule for Very Serious is out of order. The podcast is out today, there will be a regular issue tomorrow, and a special Fire Island edition of the Mayonnaise Clinic will be coming on Friday.One striking fact about three-term New York mayor Ed Koch’s life in the closet — the subject of a recent New York Times feature — is that he stayed in the closet long after he could plausibly claim that he needed to.An openly gay man would not have been elected mayor of New York City in 1977; once in office, he would have had good reason to fear he would not have been re-elected had he come out. Politicians simply didn't do that at the time. But in retirement, Koch had no reputation to protect from the knowledge that he was gay. In fact, coming out probably would have earned him sympathetic news coverage and softened his image at a time when his record as mayor was often criticized for reasons related to race relations and the AIDS crisis — including the specific allegation that he shied away from leadership on AIDS for fear that association with a “gay issue” would fan the (true) rumors that he was gay.One theory the Times piece considers is that, after denying his sexuality for so many years in the face of detractors like Larry Kramer who wanted him outed, Koch felt coming out would be tantamount to letting them win. But if you lie about your sexuality long enough, it can simply become hard to tell the truth. A lot of people stay in the closet for expediency, but a lot of people stay there because of their own shame, and it’s sad.And it’s sad how common the need to hide was until not very long ago.This week’s episode of the Very Serious podcast is an interview with James Kirchick, author of the new book Secret City: The Hidden History of Gay Washington, which chronicles the powerful roles that gays (mostly gay men) played in our federal government from World War II through the Reagan administration. Just because gays couldn’t announce themselves didn't mean they weren't around — in fact, some of them arguably sublimated their sexual desires into drive that propelled them to the heights they achieved in American government.Jamie’s book describes the creation of the modern closet as an artifact of World War II, the Cold War, and the security state. Gays had long been considered disgusting, but with world war they came to be considered security threats, at risk of blackmail over their appalling secrets. As a concept, that this would be a risk makes intuitive sense, though Jamie notes the surprising difficulty American officials had when asked to identify any specific cases where gays in government were blackmailed over their sexual orientation. And besides, whatever security risk homosexuals posed was not really a product of their sexual orientation itself, but of the government’s and society’s reaction to their sexual orientation — if you let people freely admit they are gay, then there’s no shameful secret to threaten anyone over. Nonetheless, gays were vilified, investigated, and until 1995, prohibited from holding security clearances.Through the decades covered in Jamie’s book, allegations of homosexuality were wielded as political weapons — true allegations and also false ones. Jack Kemp, for example, was not gay, and he was definitely not part of a right-wing gay cabal that controlled Ronald Reagan. But that didn’t stop a cadre of Republican officials — many of them moderates — from pushing that fantastical narrative to reporters in an effort to block Reagan's nomination in 1980. That madcap story is the subject of an excerpt from Jamie’s book that you can read in Politico Magazine.The 1980s would bring in the AIDS crisis, and an aloof response to it from the Reagans, despite Nancy Reagan’s coterie of gays, ranging from her hairdresser to Merv Griffin. The AIDS crisis would also lead to the waning of the political closet as it had been established in the 1940s, with gay political figures forced out of it, often in death. The era also brought the first two openly gay congressmen who sought and attained re-election: Gerry Studds and Barney Frank, both from Massachusetts, and both far from the idealized image of a gay politician you might mold on the basis of a focus group.I encourage you to listen to the podcast and, if it intrigues you, read the book. It's dishy and full of odd stories like the one about Reagan and the alleged secret right-wing gay cabal; and of correctives to wrong things you’ve likely heard about figures such as J. Edgar Hoover, who probably was not actually a cross-dresser. The story as a whole is sad and maddening — Jamie has, for example, handwritten edits to Ronald Reagan’s draft statement about Rock Hudson’s death, removing all reference to the closeness of Hudson’s relationship to Ronald and Nancy — but also very interesting, and well worth your time.Very seriously,JoshP.S.

Today on The Doug Collins Podcast, I continue our look back at the final speeches of our Presidents with a discussion of Ronald Regan's final speech in 1989. He lays out what is missing in so many political discussions today, a concern for people and the freedoms we have. It is a great reminder that each generation must take seriously the call to remember the greatness of our country and what it takes to keep it special.
