Jennifer Broome; sweptawaytoday.com* Instagram: @jenniferbroometravel* Facebook: JenniferBroomeTV * TikTok: @jenniferbroometravel * X (Twitter): @jenniferbroome * YouTube: Channel named “Swept Away With Jennifer Broome” Imagine standing at Old Faithful with just a handful of other visitors instead of hundreds, watching bison trudge through pristine snow, or hiking iconic trails in solitude. Travel expert Jennifer Broome reveals why winter might just be the perfect season to experience America's national parks.Jennifer takes us on a virtual tour of her favorite winter national park destinations, starting with Yellowstone's "season of snow and steam." The park transforms into a magical landscape where wildlife sightings outnumber human encounters, and snowmobiling adventures grant access to geothermal wonders without the crowds. Her vivid descriptions of close encounters with bison, foxes, and coyotes in their natural winter behaviors paint a picture of wilderness experiences rarely available during peak seasons.Just south in Moab, winter brings comfortable temperatures and dramatically fewer visitors to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Jennifer shares insider knowledge from locals about the best months (November and February) and practical tips for safely hiking iconic trails like Delicate Arch and Mesa Arch when patches of ice might be present. Her excitement is palpable when describing how landmarks that typically host hundreds of summer visitors might welcome just twenty wintertime adventurers.For those seeking warmer winter experiences, Big Bend National Park in West Texas offers unique cross-border adventures. Jennifer details the delightful experience of crossing the Rio Grande by rowboat into the small Mexican town of Boquillas, complete with burro rides and authentic cuisine. She rounds out her recommendations with Saguaro National Park near Tucson, Arizona—an International Dark Sky Park where ancient rock art and towering cacti create an otherworldly desert landscape.Beyond just the scenery, Jennifer highlights practical considerations for winter park visits, from utilizing the National Park Service app for offline maps to packing appropriate gear for changing conditions. Her enthusiasm for these off-season adventures reminds us that America's natural wonders offer different but equally spectacular experiences throughout the year.Ready to experience national parks without the crowds?

For a few years in the middle of the nineteenth century, Mexico was ruled by an Austrian and defended by a French army. This often neglected story is more than just historical trivia - it's a way of understanding 19th century imperial politics, and global insurgencies today. In Habsburgs on the Rio Grande: The Rise and Fall of the Second Mexican Empire (Harvard UP, 2024), University of Washington professor Raymond Jonas explains the genesis, course, and end of this strange twist in the historical record. Jonas argues that, even deep into the nineteenth century, a successful American republic posed an existential threat to European monarchies, so much so that in the early 1860s a combined force of Spain, France, and Britain sent soldiers to North America to impose a monarchy on an unwilling population. The Second Empire under Emperor Maximilian I was short lived, however, and his rule never extended much past the capital city. Yet as Jonas argues, the fact that Mexican anti-monarchist partisans could fight the might of Europe and oust the monarchy has lessons to teach today about autocracy and resistance in the early twenty first century.

No episódio de hoje do QueIssoAssim, Brunão e Baconzitos convidam a amiga Andreia do Livros em Cartaz para conversar sobre o já classico do cinema nacional: Saneamento Básico - O Filme. Dirigido e roteirizado pelo gênio Jorge Furtado, o filme conta a história de uma pequena cidade do Rio Grande do Sul que resolve cobrar a prefeitura a realização de uma obra de saneamento básico. Porém, não há recursos para tal. Apenas recursos para o patrocínio cultural de um curta-metragem em vídeo. É nessa situação de Marina (Fernanda Torres), Joaquim (Wagner Moura), Fabrício (Bruno Garcia) e Silene (Camila Pitanga) decidem se arriscar a fazer uma obra de ficção. Mesmo sem saber o que isso significa. Com as participações de Paulo José, Tonico Pereira e Lázaro Ramos, um filme mega divertido que brinca com a burocracia brasileira.

Convidada: Maíra Recchia, presidente da Comissão das Mulheres Advogadas da OAB-SP O Anuário da Segurança, publicado pelo Fórum Brasileiro de Segurança Pública, informa que em 2024 o Brasil teve 1.492 feminicídios — o maior número desde 2015. As tentativas de feminicídio também cresceram 19%, chegando a 3.870 casos. Já em 2025, no dia 26 de julho, um novo caso de tentativa de feminicídio virou notícia em todo o país. Dentro do elevador de um prédio em Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, câmeras de segurança registraram uma agressão brutal: um homem espancou a namorada com mais de 60 socos. Ela ficou com o rosto desfigurado; ele foi preso. Uma semana depois, um episódio muito parecido tomou o noticiário: também dentro de um elevador, desta vez em Brasília, no Distrito Federal, uma mulher foi agredida com socos, chutes e pontapés pelo companheiro. Ele também foi preso, mas, neste caso, indiciado por lesão corporal, com agravante de violência doméstica — um crime com pena muito menor. Neste episódio, Victor Boyadjian conversa com Maíra Recchia, presidente da Comissão das Mulheres Advogadas da OAB-SP, para explicar o que está por trás do crescimento, ano após ano, da violência contra a mulher. Maíra comenta também os casos de Natal e de Brasília e analisa por que eles foram enquadrados como crimes diferentes.

This episode is a deeply personal one. The Soapbox Redemption podcast has always been aimed at the big questions- and of course, served with swagger. Since my last podcast, I've come across the biggest question yet in my life with my seven year old son William's brain and spine cancer diagnosis called medulloblastoma.Words fail to relay the horror that this reality is for a family. Everything immediately looks different and the life you knew before (and expected ahead) is forever changed. This episode features a conversation with Fernando Goldsztein who has also felt the horror of a medulloblastoma diagnosis. Fernando is married and has two children and is a businessman from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil with an MBA from MIT Sloan School of Management. After Fernando's son Federico was diagnosed with medulloblastoma which then relapsed after treatment, Fernando founded the Medulloblastoma Initiative in 2021 to accelerate the development of a cure. the Medulloblastoma Initiative serves as a beacon of hope for families like Fernando who have been told "there is nothing further we can do."The Medulloblastoma Initiative is an entirely unique model. It's an open source innovation model with physicians with 14 of the world's most prestigious labs and hospitals from across North America, Europe, and Brazil all working together - no bureaucracy or red tape - just full transparency - and 100% of private donated funds going towards actualizing cutting edge clinical trial therapies NOW - and two such trials have been initiated with three more in the pipeline. This model is extremely timely given the cut-backs to recent pediatric cancer research - and has far reaching implications beyond medulloblastoma. On his recent MSNBC interview, Fernando has assertively stated "giving up on my son was not an option" and "finding a cure is not an if, but a when."Like in one of my favorite Bruce Hornsby songs "That's Just the Way It Is", Fernando and the Medulloblastoma Initiative have stated in their actions - and in no uncertain terms - "ah, but don't you believe them." Please enjoy this conversation and donate to the Medulloblastoma Initiative here.

638. Part 1 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America. Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

The college steadily grew and two dormitories were built on new property in 1832 and 1837. The West Wing, the latter of these two buildings, remains today.     After less than 20 years, the College of Louisiana closed because of declining enrollment. Suffering similar problems was the Methodist/Episcopal-operated Centenary College at Brandon Springs, Mississippi (established in 1839).     Centenary then moved to the vacant campus of the College of Louisiana. Since the all-male student bodies of the two institutions were effectively combined, the school succeeded with the name Centenary College of Louisiana now owned and operated by the Methodist/Episcopal Church South.

Diante da crise institucional que o Brasil enfrenta, como o Rio Grande do Sul pode contribuir? Esse também foi o tema do meu comentário para a Band TV. Acompanhe.

In this episode of Beyond the Thesis with Papa PhD, host David Mendes sits down with Dr. Karina do Santos Machado, a trailblazing young scientist from Brazil whose journey exemplifies the power of collaboration and open science in the global South. Karina shares her path from a childhood fascination with computers to becoming a principal investigator leading cutting-edge drug discovery research with global impact, all from her home base in Rio Grande.   Facing the challenges of limited funding, infrastructure hurdles, and fewer resources common to universities in developing countries, Karina highlights how resourcefulness and community spirit have been fundamental to her success. Collaboration is not only a choice but a necessity in the Brazilian scientific landscape. By building networks both within her institution and internationally, Karina has leveraged open science initiatives to propel her team onto the world stage, including successful participation in global drug discovery challenges such as Conscience's CACHE initiative for COVID-19 therapeutics.   As Karina explains, open science has been key in providing access to critical data, software, and partnerships, democratizing opportunities for smaller labs like hers. Her story is a testament to how determined scientists, even from under-resourced environments, can foster innovation and make tangible contributions to global health.   Karina dos Santos Machado holds a degree in Computer Engineering from the Universidade Federal de Rio Grande and a Master's and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio Grande do Sul. Between 2018 and 2019, she worked as a postdoctoral fellowship in the NANO-D research group at INRIA in Grenoble, France. She is currently a Lecturer at FURG, working in the graduate programs in Health Sciences and Computer Science, where she coordinates the Computational Biology Laboratory. Her research focuses primarily on Bioinformatics and Data Science, including the following topics: Genomics, Machine Learning, Virtual Drug Screening, Molecular Docking, and Molecular Dynamics.   Three Inspiring Take-aways from my conversation with Karina: Collaboration is a Superpower: In environments where resources are scarce, building bridges—within your university and beyond—makes it possible to tackle complex scientific problems. Don't hesitate to ask for help, offer your expertise, and create interdisciplinary teams; together, you go further. Open Science Levels the Field: By embracing open-source tools, sharing data, and participating in global challenges, you can give your work international visibility and validation, regardless of your location or funding status. Open science isn't just a philosophy; it's a passport to global research networks and impact. Your Local Challenges Have Global Resonance: The unique scientific questions you face in your community, like drug resistance in tuberculosis, are shared by the worldwide research community. Your perspective and commitment to real-world problems can drive both local solutions and contribute to advancing science on a global scale.   Karina's journey proves that with innovation, community, and openness, you can thrive and lead in science, no matter where you start.  If you're curious about AI, biosciences, or just want to see how resilient, creative science happens outside the “usual” power centers, this episode is a must-listen.

When catastrophic floods struck Brazil's state of Rio Grande do Sul in May 2024, the devastation was swift and far-reaching. Nearly 200 lives were lost, hundreds of thousands were displaced, and critical infrastructure - from roads to water systems - was brought to a standstill. But in the eye of the storm, something else emerged: a remarkable story of how digital governance can respond to climate disaster.  In this podcast episode, we feature Gabriel Souza, Vice Governor of Rio Grande do Sul, who recounts how the regional government responded with digital adaptation, coordinated leadership, and institutional learning in the face of unprecedented crisis. “We really innovated a lot,” he notes, reflecting on the urgency and innovation that emerged from the chaos. “We created a myriad of tools that are now part of the legacy of the crisis,” resulting from on-the-ground creativity under pressure. A vivid example of how data, public trust, and agile governance structures can converge in a time of disaster to deliver solutions and reshape the future. Tune in! 

The Rio Grande is running dry in the metro once again, for the second time in 40 years. With New Mexico already in a 'water debt' under the Rio Grande Compact, what does this mean for farmers, crops, and the local drinking water supply? Chris and Gabby wade through the complexities with Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District's Chief Engineer & CEO, Jason Casuga. He explains how New Mexico is managing its water, and restrictions around water storage. How does the Rio Grande Compact play a role in the state's supply? And what does this mean for future infrastructure and livelihoods?  Thanks for listening. If you've got an idea, send it to us at chris.mckee@krqe.com or gabrielle.burkhart@krqe.com.

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez en el centro de las montañas antioqueñas un Pueblo llamado Santa Rosa de Osos donde los habitantes tenia un misterio que cubria a todos ellos. Allí  en lo alto de las montañas antioqueñas, donde la neblina baja como un manto espeso al caer la tarde cubriendo las casas con techos de teja roja,  mientras las gallinas cruzan las calles empedradas, y los faroles parpadean como si tuvieran miedo de la noche y donde el frio sube siempre acompañado de un manto que cubre el parque principal y la calle que conduce hasta el seminario donde los sacerdotes de la región son educados.Los habitantes viven tranquilos, pero hay una regla que nadie rompe: nadie entra al bosque que por el sendero viejo conduce hasta el pueblo de entrerios Y mucho menos cuando el sol se esconde detrás del cerro tutelar del pueblo. Y  No es por superstición, sino por respeto y el miedo  a el hojarrasquin del monte aquel ser legendario que todos conocen.Don Efraín  era un hombre de manos duras y corazón terco. Leñador de toda la vida, conocía cada árbol por su nombre. Pero también tenía fama de arrogante. Decía que el monte era suyo, que los espíritus eran cuentos de viejas, y que el Hojarasquín no era más que una invención para mantener a los niños obedientes.Una tarde de agosto, cuando el cielo se puso gris como ceniza y el viento dejó de soplar, Don Efraín decidió entrar al bosque por el sendero viejo. Llevaba su machete afilado, una linterna de mano, y un costal para cargar leña. Ignoró las advertencias de doña Lola, la mujer sabia del pueblo que al verlo pasar le dijo con voz temblorosa:—Ese sendero no se pisa sin permiso. El monte tiene memoria, y el Hojarasquín no perdona.Don Efraín se rió, escupió al suelo y se perdió entre los árboles.Además aquella tarde Don Efraín cometio un error aún más grave. Entro al monte por el camino de Riogrande y debido a el afán que tenía para llegar a lo profundo del bosque antes de que el sol se ocultara no dejo ninguna ofrenda en la piedra de los rezos, como todo caminante lo hace, para congraciarse con la virgen para que los proteja o simplemente como señal de humildad ante el hojarrasquin del monte. Apenas entro a el bosque las campanas de la basílica se oyeron sonar llamando a misa o simplemente como una advertencia a Don Efrain que no quería reconocer lo que podía sucederle. Esa noche, el pueblo se quedó sin sueño. Los perros aullaban mirando hacia el monte. Las gallinas no se subieron a dormir. Y en la plaza, el farol del centro parpadeaba como si algo lo soplara desde lejos. Don Efrain no había regresado de su aventura y todos se miraban entre si sin saber que hacer. Nadie se atrevia entrar al bosque ya oscuro y todos sentían que debian esperar el amanecer para iniciar la búsqueda. Durante la noche alguien… un forastero que venia de la ciudad a visitar a su abuela pregunto. Y quien es el hojarrasquin del monte del que ustedes hablan. Todos los allí presentes en la plaza del pueblo lo miraron extranado y Dona Lola con voz baja le contesto. Mijito El hojarrasquin No es hombre ni una  bestia, pero tiene algo de los dos. Su cuerpo es como un tronco viejo, cubierto de hojas secas, bejucos y musgo, y sus ojos brillan como brasas cuando se enoja.Nadie sabe de dónde salió, pero nuestros antepasados cuentan que nació del dolor de los árboles talados sin razón, del llanto de los animales cazados por deporte, y del silencio que dejó el río cuando lo contaminaron. El monte, cansado de tanto abuso, lo creó para que lo defendiera. El Hojarasquín no habla, pero se hace entender. Cuando alguien entra al bosque con malas intenciones —a tumbar ár

Texas is tackling its booming population's water demands with a bold $20 billion investment plan to secure sustainable supplies and infrastructure by 2050. In this episode of In The Newsroom, Todd Votteler, a veteran water expert and editor of the Texas Water Journal, joins the podcast to discuss the state's dynamic water landscape. With Texas expecting about 40 million residents by mid-century, the state is addressing urgent needs through a recently signed bill that allocates $10 billion for new water supplies and $10 billion for infrastructure upgrades, pending voter approval on November 4, 2025. Votteler highlights the Edwards Aquifer Authority's pioneering groundwater regulation, born from 1990s endangered species litigation, which protects iconic springs like Barton Springs while balancing growth pressures. Innovative projects, such as Corpus Christi's seawater desalination plant and El Paso's groundbreaking direct potable reuse facility, signal Texas's push toward diverse water sources.However, challenges persist, including groundwater strain in areas like Jacob's Well and ongoing Rio Grande water disputes with Mexico. The state's proactive approach, including a surprise veto and special legislative session, underscores its commitment to water security amid rapid growth.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet that explores solutions for water sustainability.

No planned rhyme or reason in this installment, just what I happened to want to hear when I got back from my road trip. A beautiful weekend, with my brother and his wife birthing their baby girl, I became an uncle. Life is beautiful people. Jam this episode, listen to the birds chirp, call somebody cool, eat some fruit that you put in the fridge earlier. Maybe even make your way down to a Buffalo Wild Wings establishment and absolutely delete a dozen dry rub lemon pepper wings. Whatever keeps you from going under. Until next time, I remain a super sick internet disc jockey slightly west of the Rio Grande. Your Host with the Most,Uncle Witwicky

Avoir 25 ans en 2025. Comment les jeunes nés autour de l'an 2000 voient-ils le monde du travail, l'entrepreneuriat ? Et comment se projettent-ils dans l'avenir ? Pour ce deuxième épisode, direction Ciudad Juarez, à la frontière entre le Mexique et les États-Unis. Rencontre avec Luis, un jeune Mexicain qui la traverse illégalement toutes les semaines pour aller travailler au Texas.   Ce n'est pas son vrai nom, mais pour préserver son anonymat, nous l'appellerons Luis. Nous le rencontrons au domicile de ses parents à Ciudad Juarez. De l'autre côté du fleuve Rio Grande, il y a El Paso, le Texas et le pays du dollar. Les deux villes-frontières sont reliées par le pont des Amériques. Luis connaît parfaitement le chemin : « Je traverse la frontière tous les week-ends pour aller travailler dans un genre de casino à El Paso, une salle de poker. Je m'occupe de l'argent, parfois je distribue les cartes. Je travaille trois jours : du jeudi au samedi ou du vendredi au dimanche. Et puis, je rentre au Mexique. Cela me permet d'aider mes parents à payer les factures. »  « Chaque travailleur sans papiers a sa propre technique » Luis n'a pas pourtant pas de permis l'autorisant à travailler aux États-Unis. « Chaque travailleur sans papiers a sa propre technique. Moi, j'ai l'avantage d'avoir de la famille à El Paso, donc c'était facile de trouver un travail, d'avoir un endroit où dormir. Je traverse avec de la famille ou des amis, vers midi ou en début d'après-midi plutôt que tôt le matin. Donc, j'ai l'air de venir pour faire du tourisme ou du shopping. Traverser le week-end ? C'est très facile, ils ne soupçonnent rien. » Luis assure n'avoir jamais été interrogé en deux ans, pas même depuis le retour de Donald Trump à la Maison Blanche.  « J'aime bien Donald Trump, même si lui ne m'aime pas » Le président américain d'ailleurs, Luis l'apprécie plutôt : « Je sais que c'est bizarre, mais si vous me demandez si j'aime Trump : oui, je l'aime bien. L'économie se porte mieux quand il est au pouvoir. Je sais qu'il ne veut pas qu'on vienne travailler aux États-Unis, mais ce sont les immigrés qui font tourner son pays. Donc oui, je l'aime bien. Même si lui ne m'aime pas. » Mais n'allez pas croire qu'il rêve pour autant de s'installer aux États-Unis : « Je n'aime pas leur mode de vie. C'est travail, travail, travail. Ils ont tout ce qu'ils veulent, mais au final, ils ne font que travailler. Je me vois faire un ou deux ans de plus comme ça. Et puis, j'ouvrirai un business ici au Mexique, un food truck peut-être. » À lire aussiDe part et d'autre de la frontière, la vie chamboulée des Mexicains et des Américains

In this powerful episode, Joshua sits down with Gregory Kunkle Jr., a South Texas native and candidate for Congressional District 34, to talk about the urgent environmental and infrastructure crises facing the Rio Grande Valley—and what real solutions might look like.They dive into topics like: • The contamination of the Rio Grande, Arroyo Colorado, and municipal water systems • Mexico's 1.7 million acre-foot water debt under the 1944 Treaty • Air quality, PFAS, arsenic, and the alarming health conditions affecting Valley residents • The rising threat of hurricanes and a failing regional drainage system • And the big question: Why are so many people sick in South Texas?Greg shares his bold vision for transforming the Valley through federal investment in: • Clean drinking water, filtration systems, and desalination • Drainage and flood mitigation—with an estimated $3B price tag and a 20+ year timeline • Nuclear energy, semiconductor manufacturing, and SpaceX partnerships • High-paying tech and healthcare jobs to retain local talentThe conversation ends with a deep dive into Greg's cybersecurity background, the future of AI, and how South Texas can become a national leader in digital innovation—if we act now.

Healthy rivers are essential for thriving communities, and smart, nature-based solutions are proving crucial to turning things around in a changing climate. In this episode, Derek Vollmer, Director of Waterscapes for the World Wildlife Fund, shares how their program uses innovative, place-based strategies to restore rivers and build resilience worldwide. From the US-Mexico border, solutions for the Rio Grande include removing invasive trees and optimizing dam operations to restore flow and support wildlife. In Pakistan, the groundbreaking "Recharge Pakistan" project uses ecosystem restoration, like forests and wetlands, to reduce both flood and drought risks. Further, lessons from the Netherlands' "Room for the River" program show how giving rivers space to ebb and flow can protect communities from climate impacts, providing powerful insights for the U.S.This is a conversation from the Reservoir Center in Washington, D.C.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet.

Ces propos, ils viennent de Paul O'Brien, directeur exécutif d'Amnesty International USA. Avec lui, nous faisons un bilan des premiers six mois de la présidence Trump sur le plan de la politique des droits humains.  L'administration Trump a adopté une stratégie de confrontation directe contre les droits humains, les minorités et les contre-pouvoirs, selon Paul O'Brien. Les universités, la société civile et même certaines institutions religieuses sont ciblées, notamment si elles ne se conforment pas à une idéologie nationaliste chrétienne. En six mois, Donald Trump a signé plus de décrets que n'importe quel président, mais sans les faire adopter par le Congrès, contournant ainsi le débat démocratique. Contrairement à son premier mandat, il s'est entouré de loyalistes autoritaires pour mieux imposer son agenda. L'exemple de l'utilisation de l'armée contre des manifestants pacifiques à Los Angeles illustre, selon Paul O'Brien, une dérive extrêmement préoccupante. Il alerte sur le précédent que cela crée : que se passera-t-il si des étudiants, des syndicats ou des groupes antiracistes descendent à nouveau dans la rue ? Le fait que des militaires armés puissent viser des citoyens américains pour des actions démocratiques et non violentes marque un tournant inquiétant pour les libertés publiques aux États-Unis. Enfin, l'affaire de Mahmoud Khalil, étudiant à Columbia, ayant perdu sa carte de résident pour avoir manifesté, incarne selon Amnesty une stratégie délibérée de dissuasion. En une seule décision, l'administration Trump envoie plusieurs messages menaçants : aux étudiants, aux universités, aux résidents permanents, et à ceux qui soutiennent les droits des Palestiniens. Face à ce climat de peur, Amnesty affirme qu'une action classique auprès des responsables politiques, une sensibilisation à travers d'un dialogue, est inutile. L'organisation veut mobiliser la population américaine et internationale, pour dénoncer ces dérives et faire pression sur le gouvernement américain afin qu'il respecte les droits humains.     Quatre ans après l'assassinat de Jovenel Moïse, des zones d'ombre demeurent Quatre ans après l'assassinat du président haïtien Jovenel Moïse, l'affaire demeure entourée de nombreuses zones d'ombre. Nous en parlons avec Gotson Pierre, directeur d'Alterpresse. Il relate l'interview avec l'ancien conseiller de Jovenel Moïse, Guichard Doré. Ce dernier insiste sur la nécessité de mener trois enquêtes complémentaires – judiciaire, institutionnelle et sociale – pour comprendre les circonstances du crime. Il déplore la lenteur de la procédure en Haïti, où aucune décision définitive n'a été rendue malgré l'incarcération de plus de 40 suspects. Pendant ce temps, aux États-Unis, plusieurs condamnations ont déjà été prononcées, mais la coopération judiciaire entre les deux pays reste insuffisante. Guichard Doré s'interroge également sur les motivations profondes de l'assassinat, notamment le financement de l'opération et la manière dont les institutions haïtiennes ont été contournées. Il évoque une possible « conspiration institutionnelle » impliquant des organes de l'État qui auraient contribué à affaiblir Jovenel Moïse. Il appelle à une enquête institutionnelle pour éclaircir ces complicités internes, ainsi qu'à une enquête sociale sur le traitement médiatique et politique réservé au président, avant et après sa mort. Au-delà du crime lui-même, l'ancien conseiller dresse un constat alarmant de la déliquescence de l'État haïtien : institutions paralysées, sécurité effondrée, territoire contrôlé à 80% par des gangs. Il lance un appel à un sursaut des élites haïtiennes – intellectuels, secteur privé, presse, artistes – pour qu'elles sortent de leur passivité et participent activement à la refondation du pays. Selon lui, seule une mobilisation collective permettra de sortir Haïti de cette spirale de violence et de reconstruire un État légitime et fonctionnel.     Au Texas, les victimes commencent à être identifiées et la presse relate leur histoire El Pais revient par exemple sur le destin tragique de Brooke et Blair Harber, deux sœurs de 11 et 13 ans, originaires de Dallas, retrouvées main dans la main dans un grenier. Peu avant leur mort, l'une d'elles avait envoyé un message à leur famille disant simplement : « Je vous aime ». Autre victime évoquée : Dick Eastland, propriétaire d'un camp de vacances touché par les inondations. Il a perdu la vie en tentant de sauver des enfants, souligne le journal. Son petit-fils, George, évoque un homme pieux, dévoué : « S'il ne devait pas mourir de causes naturelles, il fallait que ce soit en sauvant les filles qu'il chérissait. » Donald Trump évite la polémique sur les responsabilités de la catastrophe Lorsqu'un ouragan avait frappé la Caroline du Nord l'an dernie (2024)r, Donald Trump avait affirmé — sans preuve — que l'administration Biden refusait d'aider les habitants des zones républicaines. Quand des incendies ont ravagé Los Angeles en début d'année, il avait accusé les démocrates locaux et de l'État, avançant des critiques infondées sur la gestion de l'eau. Mais après les inondations catastrophiques qui ont dévasté le Texas, Donald Trump a appelé à ne pas chercher de coupables. Peut-être aussi parce que la Maison Blanche est sur la défensive, selon le New York Times. Les efforts du président pour réduire la bureaucratie fédérale ont laissé des traces : plusieurs postes-clé du Service national de météorologie, notamment dans les bureaux locaux, étaient vacants au moment où les inondations ont frappé. Et puis, l'ampleur de la réponse fédérale sur le terrain reste floue. Les autorités affirment avoir activé la FEMA, l'agence fédérale de gestion des urgences, mais sans préciser combien de personnes ont été déployées, ni quels moyens sont mobilisés. Rappelons que Donald Trump a plusieurs fois exprimé son intention de démanteler cette agence. La presse se penche sur l'impact des raids anti-migrants aux États-Unis   Dans un long reportage The New Yorker s'interroge sur la solidité du soutien hispanique à Donald Trump dans le sud du Texas, près de la frontière mexicaine. Longtemps bastion démocrate, la vallée du Rio Grande avait pourtant basculé en 2024. Mais la politique de l'immigration de Donald Trump, notamment les raids, font que même les républicains se détournent de leur président. Début juin 2025, des descentes massives de la police fédérale de l'immigration ont frappé la région, semant la panique dans les commerces, les restaurants et les entreprises. « C'est comme si une bombe avait explosé sur notre économie locale », témoigne un restaurateur dans le New Yorker. Face à l'ampleur du choc, certains élus républicains locaux osent critiquer Donald Trump Javier Villalobos, maire de McAllen, ancien démocrate devenu républicain, affirme : « On peut soutenir la loi, mais pas quand elle détruit nos familles et notre économie. » Dans les réunions publiques, la colère monte. Le New Yorker évoque une ambiance tendue, voire explosive : « Les électeurs qui avaient voté pour Donald Trump pour des raisons économiques ne veulent pas payer le prix de cette politique migratoire brutale. »   Journal de la 1ère Le moucheron piqueur fait des dégâts dans les Caraïbes et en Amérique du Sud.

Neste episódio contamos a história de Euclydes Kliemann, um político influente do Rio Grande do Sul, e do assassinato brutal de sua esposa, Margit Kliemann, em mil novecentos e sessenta e dois. O caso, marcado pela figura misteriosa da Dama de Vermelho, atravessou décadas sem respostas claras, misturando contradições, suspeitos improváveis, boatos e interesses políticos. Uma trama que permanece viva na memória gaúcha, cercada por silêncios, versões conflitantes e perguntas que ainda hoje ecoam.

Andy McLaughlin joins the show from a remote island in Alaska where he lives off the land enjoying a true subsistence lifestyle. Having grown up with grandparents who were passionate about the outdoors, Andy became interested in nature at a very young age. Spending much of his childhood on farms in the Midwest, his early connections to the land ranged from farming to hunting, fishing and foraging. Well respected for his culinary skills and creativity in utilizing wild game in the kitchen, Jesse Deubel first met Andy on the “Hunt, Gather, Cook” Facebook page. This page was created by and is run by famed wild game chef and author Hank Shaw. After years of communicating and sharing recipes, Andy traveled to New Mexico to hunt javelina with Jesse in 2024. The two hunted an area that Hank Shaw would also visit as he did research for his newest book, “Borderlands.” “Borderlands” highlights recipes and stories from the Rio Grande to the Pacific. It's a must have for every kitchen. In spring of 2025 Jesse traveled to Indiana to hunt and fish with Andy on his family farm. In this casual conversation Andy and Jesse recall these experiences as they discuss the critical importance of healthy habitat for sustainable wildlife populations. They also dive into the role hunting plays in effectively managing wildlife. No topic is off limits as they delve into the challenges of climate change and the current threats to public lands. Andy is an incredible outdoorsman with a background in wildlife management. His knowledge and experience are sure to both educate and entertain. Enjoy the listen! For more info:NMWF Website
