AMERICA'S DEFICIT RECKONING: What happens if the U.S. doesn't rein in the budget deficit? CNBC Senior Finance & Banking Reporter Leslie Picker interviewed a dozen experts, investors and former government officials over the course of five months to explore the consequences of America's fiscal path – not how to solve it, but what's at stake if we don't. This special report unpacks how rising debt threatens markets, hinders economic growth, and fractures international relations. From trillion-dollar annual interest payments to bond-market tremors to geopolitical vulnerability, CNBC explores the tipping point that the U.S. may be approaching – and whether it's still possible to change course.

Have you ever felt like time is speeding up? Many people are experiencing what is called Tachysensia - a distortion of time and sound. It is reported to consist of time moving fast or slow, or a combination of both, in which a person may feel like they are moving in slow motion but everything around them is in ‘fast forward.” Sounds can also be altered, where there can be an amplification of sounds, in which everything appears very loud, or also muffled. This can be very troubling for those experiencing it. What could be causing this phenomenon? Listen tonight on Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis at 7pm, Pacific time on groundzeroplus.com.

In this wide-ranging conversation, journalist Mattha Busby joins Joe Moore to reflect on the shifting tone of the psychedelic movement in the wake of Psychedelic Science 2025. Based in Vancouver, Mattha has written for The Guardian, VICE, Esquire, TIME, and Wired, bringing a uniquely embedded yet critical lens to the space. They discuss the post-conference mood and the sense that the industry is sobering up—less hype, more introspection. Mattha reflects on the growing division between underground practitioners, activists, and biotech startups, and the importance of vision, ethics, and scrutiny in the midst of this cultural moment. Other topics include: Ketamine overuse and dependence, especially in social and parenting contexts The future of psychedelic nightlife, harm reduction, and mocktail bars Gender and sexual fluidity as uncovered through psychedelics Questions of IP, underground wisdom, and psychedelic ownership Psychedelics as tools for peacebuilding, especially in conflict zones The shadow side of spiritual experiences and how to spot bad actors The value of pleasure, intimacy, and human connection in the psychedelic journey Joe and Mattha also reflect on the resurgence of psychedelic use in Texas, the legacy of the Stark Club, and how Christian libertarianism and military trauma might influence unexpected policy changes. This conversation is bold, honest, funny, and thoughtful—exactly the kind of cultural critique the movement needs right now. Find Mattha on Instagram at @matthamundo and on LinkedIn at Mattha Busby. His new pocketbook on drug policy is available now.

There is no forever solution to nuclear waste, and humanity is doomed to always live with its drastic consequences. With underserved areas always getting the small end of the stick, Dr. Sarah Fox helps to elevate their voices by putting community storytelling in the spotlight. In this conversation with Corinna Bellizzi, she shares how she underscored the disproportionate impact of environmental contamination on marginalized regions by highlighting the stories and activism of ordinary people. Dr. Sarah also explains why the lives of everyday individuals must not be treated as less important than in-depth scientific researches, which both aim to build healthier and more sustainable communities.About Guest:Seattle-based author and historian Sarah Fox is drawn to the stories we tell about places, bodies, and the relationships between them. Fox is the author of Downwind: A People's History of the Nuclear West (University of Nebraska Press, 2014).

Tara unleashes a scathing exposé on the mounting evidence of COVID vaccine harm—from shocking peer-reviewed studies estimating up to 600,000 U.S. deaths to new research linking the shots to miscarriages, infertility, and deadly autoimmune diseases. She warns that mRNA injections will soon expand into flu shots and urges listeners to reject them outright. Switching gears, she highlights the growing rift between Donald Trump and Elon Musk over record-breaking deficit spending and the “big beautiful bill,” calling it a dangerous distraction that threatens America's information ecosystem. Tara argues that without Musk's ownership of Twitter and its uncensored reach, Trump's 2024 comeback—and the survival of free speech itself—could be doomed.

Tara exposes the alarming trajectory of U.S. debt projected to hit $60 trillion by 2035, despite Trump's promises of fiscal discipline and economic growth. She scrutinizes the tense standoff with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell over interest rates and refinancing, calling it economic sabotage designed to undermine Trump's agenda. In parallel, she delivers a scathing indictment of the COVID vaccines—citing peer-reviewed studies and VAERS data that point to hundreds of thousands of potential deaths, fertility destruction, and severe autoimmune disease. As Trump and Elon Musk escalate their feud over deficit spending and free speech, Tara warns that fracturing this alliance could cripple the conservative movement's ability to communicate, mobilize, and fight back.

In this week's episode of Soul Archaeology, our host, quantum healer and evolutionary astrologer, Ali Ofstedal, guides us through a week of friction, refinement, and sacred return.As Venus meets Uranus at the anaretic degree of Taurus (29°), we reach the edge of a long chapter around safety, embodiment, love, and worth.

True crime is a cultural obsession. But beneath the gripping stories of ghastly crimes and elusive perpetrators are tough questions about ethics, representation and respect. Who gets to tell these stories? Whose voices are amplified and whose are left out? And how can creators avoid retraumatizing victims? Journalism professor and true crime author Kate Winkler Dawson joins The Excerpt to unpack where the genre goes wrong, how it can do better, and why responsible storytelling matters now more than ever.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.Episode Transcript available hereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Climate change, global warming – we've all heard the steady drumbeat of doom. But a recent five-year forecast, by the World Meteorological Organization and the U.K. Meteorological Office, puts it starkly: The world will likely soon break another annual temperature record and, according to the Associated Press, the heat will be deadly. What would happen if we embraced the idea that the future still rests firmly in our hands? Is it in our nature to learn, adapt and change? And, equally important, is there still time? Author and climate scientist Kate Marvel dives into those questions in her new book “Human Nature,” on bookshelves now. She joins USA TODAY's The Excerpt to share her perspective.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Discussion Highlights:Demographic megatrends: Population is shrinking and aging across Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe; fertility rates remain low and often below replacement levels. Some Western nations rely on immigration to maintain workforce levels.Economic and fiscal impact: Falling birth rates and working-age populations threaten tax bases needed to sustain pensions, healthcare, and living standards.Policy responses: Hungary's family incentives briefly boosted fertility before rates fell again to ~1.38. Scandinavian social policies helped but haven't reached replacement fertility. Immigration remains essential.Healthy life expectancy: Lifespans have increased significantly but healthy years have not kept pace. Promoting healthy ageing is critical for extending working lives.Political narratives: Demographic anxieties underpin nationalist rhetoric in Hungary and Bulgaria. In Western Europe, aging populations amplify both immigrant integration debates and depopulation concerns (e.g., rural Spain).Ukraine and modern warfare: Judah shares frontline insights: drones, electronic warfare countermeasures, fiber-optic-controlled UAVs, land drones for logistics and medevac, and upcoming AI-swarm tech reshape battlefield dynamics.Ukrainian resilience: On-the-ground mindset is “phlegmatic pragmatism”—facing war fatigue, debate over ceasefire, but determination to adapt.Europe's future: Post-Brexit Britain re-engages with EU; EU enlargement may take a variable-geometry approach. Western Balkans and Ukraine may enter through piecemeal integration rather than simultaneous accession.Guest BioTim JudahA British journalist and author  Tim Judah is a Special Correspondent for The Economist and a longtime commentator on Eastern Europe.

In back-to-back explosive episodes of The Tara Show, Tara exposes Iran's self-destructive moves on the global stage. From violating ceasefires and launching proxy attacks to denying the obvious, Iran walks straight into a coordinated trap set by Trump and Israel. With blistering commentary, Tara details how Iran's nuclear program—backed by China—is being systematically dismantled, how its leadership faces possible eradication, and why Trump's return signals the end of Biden-era appeasement. Meanwhile, the media distracts with heatwave hysteria, ignoring record polar ice growth and geopolitical reality. It's not just a conflict—it's the beginning of Iran's collapse and China's exposure

As Customs and Border Protection warns of an unprecedented sleeper cell threat, revelations mount about the Biden administration releasing unvetted Iranian nationals—some potentially on the terror watch list—into the U.S. In this explosive broadcast, Tara and JD Vance lay out how Democrats are actively shielding those tied to terror networks, while simultaneously reviving Barack Obama's controversial Global Engagement Center to silence dissent and censor conservative speech under the guise of “national security.” Tara draws a bold through-line from Obama's regime-change bombing of Libya, to Chuck Schumer's outrage over Trump's precision strike on Iran, and the broader Democrat-Iran alliance. With figures like the Ayatollah enjoying full access to platforms like X, while Trump and critics of trans ideology face digital exile, Tara paints a chilling picture of selective censorship and foreign favoritism. Meanwhile, cultural tides shift as free speech wins major ground—highlighted by Olympic champion Simone Biles deleting her X account after a public reversal in a debate with Riley Gaines. From cultural collapse to national betrayal, Tara argues the left has lost control of the narrative—and is turning to censorship as its last hope. This episode isn't just commentary—it's a wake-up call: Democrats aren't preparing to fight Iran. They're preparing to protect it.

Jesus came into the world not to bring judgment onto His people but to save them. Therefore, we must come to God without the fear of reckoning. Genesis 42:1–38 (ESV): 42 When Jacob learned that there was grain for sale in Egypt, he said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?” 2 And he said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain for sale in Egypt. Go down and buy grain for us there, that we may live and not die.” 3 So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt. 4 But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with his brothers, for he feared that harm might happen to him. 5 Thus the sons of Israel came to buy among the others who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan. 6 Now Joseph was governor over the land. He was the one who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brothers came and bowed themselves before him with their faces to the ground. 7 Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he treated them like strangers and spoke roughly to them. “Where do you come from?” he said. They said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.” 8 And Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him. 9 And Joseph remembered the dreams that he had dreamed of them. And he said to them, “You are spies; you have come to see the nakedness of the land.” 10 They said to him, “No, my lord, your servants have come to buy food. 11 We are all sons of one man. We are honest men. Your servants have never been spies.” 12 He said to them, “No, it is the nakedness of the land that you have come to see.” 13 And they said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more.” 14 But Joseph said to them, “It is as I said to you. You are spies. 15 By this you shall be tested: by the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go from this place unless your youngest brother comes here. 16 Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, while you remain confined, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you. Or else, by the life of Pharaoh, surely you are spies.” 17 And he put them all together in custody for three days. 18 On the third day Joseph said to them, “Do this and you will live, for I fear God: 19 if you are honest men, let one of your brothers remain confined where you are in custody, and let the rest go and carry grain for the famine of your households, 20 and bring your youngest brother to me. So your words will be verified, and you shall not die.” And they did so. 21 Then they said to one another, “In truth we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us and we did not listen. That is why this distress has come upon us.” 22 And Reuben answered them, “Did I not tell you not to sin against the boy? But you did not listen. So now there comes a reckoning for his blood.” 23 They did not know that Joseph understood them, for there was an interpreter between them. 24 Then he turned away from them and wept. And he returned to them and spoke to them. And he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes. 25 And Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, and to replace every man's money in his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. This was done for them. 26 Then they loaded their donkeys with their grain and departed. 27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey fodder at the lodging place, he saw his money in the mouth of his sack. 28 He said to his brothers, “My money has been put back; here it is in the mouth of my sack!” At this their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?” 29 When they came to Jacob their father in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had happened to them, saying, 30 “The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us and took us to be spies of the land. 31 But we said to him, ‘We are honest men; we have never been spies. 32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father. One is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.' 33 Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way. 34 Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I shall know that you are not spies but honest men, and I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.' ” 35 As they emptied their sacks, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack. And when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid. 36 And Jacob their father said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children: Joseph is no more, and Simeon is no more, and now you would take Benjamin. All this has come against me.” 37 Then Reuben said to his father, “Kill my two sons if I do not bring him back to you. Put him in my hands, and I will bring him back to you.” 38 But he said, “My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is the only one left. If harm should happen to him on the journey that you are to make, you would bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.”

In Episode 214, Dave starts the show discussing some inside scoop details in the medical field as it relates to Covid and the jabby jabs. From there, he has a wide ranging conversation about this auto pen business. Dave then turns his attention to the latest SCOTUS ruling and the left is predictably apoplectic. After those serious topics, he then has some fun at the expense of libs when he talks about their attempts to get into Gaza, celebrate pride month in the Middle East, and Vance joining the uber leftist propaganda app Bluesky. Dave closes the show with a feel-good story about the Trump administration stepping in and possibly saving a 175 year old family farm in New Jersey.

Can we ever really know Primo Levi? We know his books, of course, especially If This Is A Man, the astonishing account of his survival from Auschwitz. But what, then, of his apparent suicide in 1987? How can a man who miraculously survived Auschwitz take his own life forty years later? That's one of the questions that Joseph Olshan asks in Milo's Reckoning, a new novel about Levi, suicide and our own unknowability. Olshan, himself deeply affected by Primo Levi's death when he first heard the news during a newspaper interview in Italy, explores the profound mystery of human nature and the limits of what we can truly understand about others, even those, like Levi, whose experiences have been supposedly laid bare in their autobiographical work. 5 takeaways1. Suicide is often impulsive, not premeditated Most suicides happen in the spur of the moment when people "snap" under pressure, rather than being carefully planned decisions. The majority don't even leave notes, contrary to popular belief.2. Personal trauma shaped Olshan's literary obsessions Olshan's lifelong fascination with suicide stems from witnessing a child's drowning at age six, followed by the suicides of an influential college professor and his aunt - experiences that ultimately inspired Milo's Reckoning.3. We can never fully know another person Even when someone writes intimately about their experiences, as Levi did about Auschwitz, we still can't truly understand their inner life or predict their future actions - hence the shock of Levi's apparent suicide.4. Language barriers limit authentic cultural understanding Olshan argues that American writers who spend brief periods abroad without knowing the local language cannot authentically capture those cultures, emphasizing the importance of linguistic fluency for true cultural insight.5. Too much self-knowledge may be dangerous Olshan suggests that suicide might result from excessive self-awareness - people who contemplate life's inequities and their own perceived deficiencies too deeply may become overwhelmed by the world's suffering and their place in it.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Rich is joined by Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Bob Dees, who served 31 years in the U.S. Army, including as Commander of the U.S.-Israeli Combined Task Force for Missile Defense. General Dees offers expert insight into the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel—including Iran's horrific hospital attack—and weighs in on President Trump's evolving stance on U.S. involvement in the growing regional war. Mike Howell, Executive Director of the Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project, exposes major concerns over President Biden's cognitive decline and the use of an “auto-pen presidency.” Howell explains the legal battle Republicans are launching to uncover who was really making decisions inside the White House—including efforts to subpoena Biden's doctor. Then, Dr. Gilda Carle—renowned relationship expert, author of Real Men Don't Go Woke, and spokesperson for the International Council of Men and Boys—unpacks how feminism and gender ideology are clashing with biological reality in the courts. She breaks down the Supreme Court's recent decision upholding Tennessee's ban on transgender medical procedures for minors and what it means for the culture war ahead.

Dr. Terri Givens is a regular "Friend of the Show" on Trending in Ed and a professor of political science at the University of British Columbia and author of Radical Empathy. She joins host Mike Palmer to discuss the current challenges facing higher education and academic associations, the importance of collaboration, and how individuals can take action in a chaotic world. Key Takeaways: Higher education faces significant disruptions, including declining enrollment, reduced research funding, and a shift towards an adjunct-focused model. Academic associations are crucial for faculty development and networking but struggle with declining membership and funding. There's a growing demand for academic associations to take political stances, which is challenging for their 501(c)(3) status. Collaboration and strategic planning are essential for academic associations and universities to navigate current challenges. The current political landscape highlights systemic issues like racism and discrimination, underscoring the need for mutual aid and community involvement. Empathy and taking action are vital in addressing societal and educational challenges, as discussed in Dr. Givens' upcoming book, Reckoning. It's crucial for higher education to better articulate its value, especially that of a liberal education, beyond just job prospects. The politicization of higher education is a concern, but it also presents an opportunity for institutions to unite and promote their positive impact. A historical and global perspective helps us understand and navigate current challenges, recognizing that societies have overcome major hurdles before. Why You Should Listen: Gain insights into the significant challenges and disruptions impacting higher education and academic associations today. Learn about the critical role of academic associations and why their struggles have a "domino effect" on the broader academic landscape. Understand the call for greater collaboration and strategic foresight within higher education to address current and future crises. Hear Dr. Givens' perspective on how individuals can find agency and make an impact in a chaotic world, emphasizing local action and mutual aid. Explore the intersection of politics and education, and why staying politically involved is essential for everyone. Discover why higher education needs to re-articulate its value and address issues like declining male enrollment. Tune in to hear Dr. Terri Givens share her extensive experience and sharp analysis on the state of higher education, the role of academic associations, and the power of empathy and action in these turbulent times.

There are an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. Every one of their stories is different and the broad strokes coverage you often hear can't possibly touch on everyone's reality. So Alix Dick and Antero Garcia decided to focus on the story of just one undocumented person - Alix herself. Their new book “The Cost of Being Undocumented: One Woman's Reckoning with America's Inhumane Math“ is on bookshelves now.

Jon Herold returns with a pre-recorded but packed episode tackling the week's most explosive developments, from the exposed incompetence of political elites to the latest revelations of foreign interference in U.S. elections. He opens with Tucker Carlson's viral takedown of Senator Ted Cruz over Iran policy, using it to highlight how out-of-touch and unaccountable the GOP has become. Herold doesn't hold back, questioning the intelligence community's motives and calling out the war-hungry political class. He then zeroes in on an FBI whistleblower report detailing a CCP-backed scheme to use fake driver's licenses for fraudulent mail-in ballots in 2020, and how the intel agencies allegedly buried it. Linking it to Trump's executive order on TikTok, Herold draws potential connections between suppressed intel and strategic countermoves from the White House. Other highlights include Trump's crypto regulation wins, landmark SCOTUS rulings on trans care, geopolitical theater in Israel and Iran, and growing divisions within the America First movement. With humor, urgency, and sharp commentary, Herold paints a picture of a country at a crossroads, where discernment is no longer optional, and the truth is more uncomfortable than ever.

In this back-to-back commentary blitz, Tara and Producer Tim begin with a jaw-dropping look at Gen Z's remote work culture—where nearly half admit to sex on the clock and a shocking percentage demand private spaces for “hookups and solo play” in the office. The segment swerves into comedic territory with a deep (and slightly too detailed) discussion of “office chair butt.” But things take a serious turn as Tara delivers a fiery indictment of U.S. foreign policy failures with Iran, warning of escalating tensions and calling for a decisive, no-boots-on-the-ground end to the Ayatollah's nuclear ambitions. A blend of cultural absurdity and geopolitical urgency.

First: President Trump is on the cusp of the most important decision he's made to date as Commander in Chief. Will the US join Israel in seeking to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities? The vice president just issued a remarkable new statement clearly aimed at MAGA opponents to American assistance in Iran.  Plus: CNN has new reporting on what the US intelligence community is saying about Israel's justification for striking Iran in the first place. Dana discusses that with the Israeli ambassador to the US.  And: Democrats in Minnesota say Republican Senator Mike Lee has made a horrific situation even worse with his social media posts about the state lawmakers gunned down in their homes.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Rick Rule, president and CEO of Rule Investment Media and co-founder of Battle Bank, joins the Julia La Roche Show for episode 266 for his quarterly appearance. In this episode, Rule predicts the US dollar will lose 75% of its purchasing power over the next decade, similar to the 1970s crisis. He explains that $130 trillion in total government liabilities against $141 trillion in private wealth creates unsolvable math that can only be resolved through inflation. Rule calls Trump's presidency a failure, dismissing DOGE as fiction and tariffs as harmful taxes. He believes the US is already in recession based on oil prices and recommends gold (potentially $10,000+), uranium, and copper investments. Drawing parallels to 1968-1980, Rule expects 10-12 years of economic difficulty but says America's culture will survive. His main message: individuals must prepare financially because government support systems are unsustainable.Sponsors: Monetary Metals. ⁠https://monetary-metals.com/julia⁠ Kalshi: ⁠https://kalshi.com/juliaSymposium: https://registration.allintheloop.net/register/event/rick-rule-symposium-2025-ccha?via=juliaTimestamps:0:00 Welcome and intro00:41 - Rule Natural Resources Symposium (July 7-11, Boca Raton)04:32 - Trump presidency assessment: DOGE failure, tariffs are taxes07:47 - 10-12 years of reckoning ahead, comparing to 1970s crisis09:34 - Prediction: US dollar will decline 75% over next decade11:46 - $130 trillion total debt vs $141 trillion private net worth18:44 - CPI vs real inflation - why the math doesn't work22:55 - Why DOGE was fiction from the start28:51 - Gold moving on purchasing power fears, could hit $10,000+38:43 - Copper supply shortages despite near-term economic weakness40:47 - "I believe we're in a recession" - oil prices signal soft demand44:31 - Fed rate cuts would signal abandoning dollar defense47:12 - Silver phases: gold leads, then generalist investors drive silver explosive moves50:23 - Uranium as "total no brainer" - billion people need electricity54:13 - Next decade different from benign 1982-2022 period55:00 - Personal responsibility: invest in yourself, society won't help

In a deep-dive segment, Tara and Lee explore the urgent crisis over rare earth minerals—the essential elements powering everything from smartphones and fighter jets to AI dominance. Once a global leader, America's rare earth industry crumbled after environmental regulations in the 1980s, leaving China with near-total control. Now, amid Trump's controversial visa concessions and a proposed $120 million mining investment in Greenland, the U.S. scrambles to catch up. The conversation highlights the geopolitical stakes: a new cold war where the winner of the AI race—China or America—will shape the future of education, defense, tech, and global culture.
