As we look back at our international reporters' most memorable stories of the last year, we revisit a report from a remote corner of southeastern Syria near the border with Jordan.  There some 7,000 people were trapped in a refugee camp for years. They had fled Syrian regime forces and ISIS attacks and had nowhere else they could go. Our reporter was the first person to visit the camp, after the Syrian regime fell.  We get an update on where those residents are now.Support our non-profit journalism by joining NPR+ at plus.npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Interested in Joining the Thinking in English Patreon in 2026? 20% Discount is you use the code 2026 - https://www.patreon.com/thinkinginenglish Welcome to a special Thinking in English Christmas episode! Today's lesson isn't about Santa Claus, reindeer, Christmas trees, or anything you might normally expect at this time of year. Instead, I want to talk about a place that literally carries the name Christmas: Christmas Island. Christmas Island sounds like a cheerful and festive place. Photos of the island show bright blue oceans, white beaches, tropical forests, and its famous red crabs that are often featured in nature documentaries. But behind the beautiful scenery and joyful name lies a far more complicated, and often dark, history. Christmas Island has been home to exploited migrant workers, brutal colonial mining operations, Japanese wartime occupation, and, more recently, Australia's controversial refugee detention centre. So today, in this Christmas special, let's explore why one of the world's most festive-sounding islands has such a complex past, while learning some new English vocabulary!

Nearly 2 million refugees – over half of them children - are now living in Uganda, which has the largest refugee population in Africa.

From November 20, 2023: Over the past few weeks, the country of Pakistan has pursued an aggressive wave of deportations targeting thousands of Afghan refugees, some of whom have been in Pakistan for generations. Many fear that this move will add to the already precarious and humanitarian situation facing Afghanistan. But the Taliban regime, for one, has reacted in a way few expected.To talk through these refugee removals and their ramifications, Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson sat down with Madiha Afzal, a Fellow in the Foreign Policy program at the Brookings Institution. They talked about the origins of the Afghan refugee population in Pakistan, how this latest action intersects with concerns over terrorism, and where the crisis may be headed next.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Welcome back to another episode of the Couple Casuals Podcast!In this episode, Stefano sits down once again with Mario (4TheNorth) — one of Canada's most influential political commentators — for a wide-ranging, no-nonsense conversation about where the country is heading and why so many Canadians feel left behind.Mario breaks down how Canada reached this moment: unchecked government spending, distorted economic data, unsustainable immigration levels, and a political system that increasingly avoids accountability. From youth unemployment and part-time job manipulation, to food bank usage hitting record highs, he explains why the official narrative no longer matches everyday reality.In this conversation, Stefano and Mario dig into:• why Canadians across all backgrounds feel “cheated” by the system• how immigration policy is straining housing, healthcare, and wages• why economic “job growth” isn't what it appears to be• how government spending is being reclassified to mask massive deficits• why political trust is collapsing — and why independent voices are growing• Mark Carney's leadership, continuity from Trudeau, and what may come nextMario also explains why he has no interest in becoming a politician, despite massive influence — and why speaking freely outside the system may be more powerful than holding office inside it.This episode is candid, fact-driven, and grounded in lived reality — a must-watch for anyone trying to understand Canadian politics beyond headlines and spin.Grab a casual, lock in, and let's get into it.Host: Stefano (stefo)Instagram: @drstefohttps://www.instagram.com/drstefo?igs...Guest: Mario Zelaya Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mario4thenorth?igsh=MXc2YTNlNmRta2N2NA==TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmariozelaya?_r=1&_t=ZS-92JJpiCu5siX: https://x.com/mario4thenorth?s=21&t=Cgz_58zASW84g-pj2PUNtwThis episode is brought to you by Canada First — secure your home with Canada's best home fortification.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Gov Josh Shapiro associates radical Muslim elements, including imams in Philadelphia, and providing $5 million to their academy, while hypocritically downplaying his Jewish heritage to non-Jews and emphasizing it to Jews, which is diabolical politics.  Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali-born intellectual, wrote an eye-opening article on Somali culture, which Shapiro ignores while funding radical Islamists. Immigrants must be vetted for assimilation potential. Governors Josh Shapiro and Spencer Cox are enabling cultural erosion through political correctness. The Islamist belief system is incompatible with Americanism. Afterward, it's important to educate the young people about America's history. They are brainwashed by misinformation and by an agenda they don't understand themselves, only because they were taught to do it. We need to educate our future generations, teaching them about people the unknown people who founded our country, such as Roger Sherman, Gunning Bedford Jr and Daniel of St Thomas Jenifer. Later, Rep Jim Jordan calls in to discuss his full support for the Antisemitism Awareness Act. There's a small but potentially growing anti-Israel stance among conservatives and it's worrisome. He also announces that Special Counsel Jack Smith will testify in a closed-door deposition under oath next Wednesday. Finally, North Carolina Senate candidate Michael Whatley calls in to discuss his race. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today Allie explains why she chose not to teach her kids to believe in Santa Claus. While imagination is powerful, believing in Santa can cause confusion and ultimately muddy the true gospel message of Christmas. Allie provides practical ways and activities for parents to keep Christ at the forefront of the holiday season, like devotional reading and hymn-singing. She then dives into progressive churches, like Lake Street Church in Illinois, that have hijacked Christmas to make it into a political spectacle to push agendas like open borders and illegal immigration. Despite what the Left says, Jesus was not a refugee. He and his family fled within the Roman Empire under divine command; he was not a modern border-crosser. Tune in for biblical clarity and why Christ — not Santa Claus — is the real reason for the season.

Keir Starmer has called on European leaders to urgently reform human rights laws so that member states can take tougher action to protect their borders and see off the rise of the populist right across the continent. But Labour has been condemned by campaigners and MPs who argue these proposals could lead to countries abandoning the world's most vulnerable people and further demonise refugees.

Applications for Minnesota's "special service provider" licenses have skyrocketed by more than 280% as fraudsters rip off Medicaid for billions, all under Governor Tim Walz's nose.

That woman is part of the Feeding Our Future fraud and stole millions of dollars she spent on real estate and a private jet. A democrat congressman admits the boats the military is blowing up are carrying narcotics and a look at Ilhan Omar's strange and very lucrative stock portfolio.
