On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump announced a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, ending a 12-day war. What will it be about this agreement to ensure they don't violate it? Iran should face unconditional surrender due to its weakened military and lack of support from allies like China, Russia, or Arab nations. Trump's decisive military actions prevented Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which no other president, including Clinton, Obama, or Biden, was willing or able to accomplish.  Without Trump's intervention, Iran would have become a nuclear power, potentially arming groups like the Houthis and enabling terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S. to acquire dirty bombs. Also, Trump's actions on Iran have ensured peace for a period. But there's a group of individuals—Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, and others—who are undermining Trump and aligning with radical left ideologies, including anti-Israel sentiments. These figures, supported by liberal media, aim to sabotage Trump's movement and the next election. Later, Marc Thiessen calls in to discuss a Reagan Institute poll showing that MAGA Republicans strongly support U.S. global leadership, rejecting isolationism. The poll indicates 90% of MAGA voters prioritize preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, aligning with Trump's decision to join Israel's strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. The claims of a splintering MAGA base over Trump's Iran policy are exaggerated, as isolationist critics represent a small minority within the GOP. Finally, Lee Smith calls in and discusses how Trump's political opponents, particularly within the Democratic Party and aligned institutions, have pursued strategies aimed at humbling America to counter his influence. These efforts stem from a belief that Trump's "Make America Great Again" rhetoric and policies threaten their vision of a globalized, progressive world order. Learn more about your ad choices.

In a press conference following the strategic strike, President Donald Trump called the mission a “spectacular military success.” 3:10pm- On Monday, Iran responded to U.S. strikes on key nuclear development facilities by launching missiles at an American base in Qatar—the largest American military installation in the Middle East. The Defense Department has said the air defense systems intercepted the missiles and there were no U.S. casualties. 3:20pm- During a press conference Sunday night, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Dan Caine revealed that Iranian air defense never spotted the American B-2 bombers over Iranian airspace and, consequently, never fired a single shot during Saturday night's strategic bombing. 3:30pm- Deputy Head of Russian President Vladimir Putin's Security Council Dmitry Medvedev called America's strike on Iranian nuclear facilities a “dangerous escalation” and suggested other countries may supply Iran with a nuclear weapon—though, he did not say which nations. 3:40pm- Secretary of State Marco Rubio has warned Iran not to shut down the Strait of Hormuz with mines.

After the U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities over the weekend, on Monday Iran began their retaliation. Several Iranian missiles were launched at the U.S. Air Force base in Qatar, which were ultimately intercepted. This week, American lawmakers are seeking further information about these strikes, with some even questioning why this mission occurred without congressional approval. Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE) joins the Rundown to explain the strategic implications of President Trump's decision, the potential for regime change in Iran, and the ongoing debate over Congress's role in authorizing military action. Iran's retaliation against the United States goes beyond military force. There is also the threat of cyberwarfare, including the potential for infiltrating social media. Cybersecurity expert and American AI Logistics CEO John Cofrancesco discusses the risk of Iranian hackers targeting American businesses and infrastructure, how America is prepared to respond, and why he believes Russia and China have a vested interest in using misinformation online to divide the U.S. and exploit its conflict with Iran.

The US military will "very likely" fight a three-way war with Iran, Russia, and China, predicted Palantir CEO Alex Karp in 2024. American imperial strategist Zbigniew Brzezinski warned back in the 1990s of this Eurasian "anti-hegemonic coalition" that could challenge US global dominance. Ben Norton explains.

Tom welcomes back the headwriter for the Doomberg Team for another interesting discussion around current geopolitics. They delve into the rapidly escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, which Doomy argues was sparked by a dangerous miscalculation by Israel. He emphasizes that Israel vastly underestimated Iran's military capabilities, assuming they could deliver a knockout blow early in the conflict. However, as days pass and Iranian missiles continue to breach Israel's famed defense systems, the situation appears increasingly dire for Israel—a small country now facing a prolonged war of attrition against a nation ten times its size, backed by Russia and China. Doomberg frames this escalation as part of a broader “World War III,” a concept often downplayed in Western media but openly acknowledged by Russian and Chinese propaganda. He highlights the geopolitical stakes, including the potential diversion of U.S. military resources from Ukraine to Israel, which could embolden Russia further. The discussion also touches on the fracturing of Trump's base, many of whom feel betrayed by his apparent shift from a peace-oriented campaign to a hawkish stance—echoing the skepticism of prominent conservative voices like Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon. The conversation extends to broader geopolitical risks, including the possibilities of false-flag attacks, cyber threats to American infrastructure, and the vulnerability of global energy supply chains—particularly if the Strait of Hormuz is closed. Doomberg critiques the market's seemingly placid response to these escalations, noting that oil prices reflect some risk premium but broader financial markets appear overly complacent. Throughout, Doomberg advocates for sober, nuanced analysis, urging listeners to look beyond emotional reactions and consider second- and third-order consequences. He critiques the bellicose posturing of Washington hawks, including figures like John Bolton and Lindsey Graham, and questions whether Trump is being maneuvered into a disastrous war or has abandoned his anti-interventionist stance entirely. The discussion closes with a call for vigilance, urging audiences to approach geopolitical conflicts with a critical, independent mindset rather than relying on echo chambers or sensationalism. Doomberg's insights serve as a timely reminder of the high stakes and long-lasting repercussions of unchecked military escalation in an interconnected world.

The full version of today's Friday Focus is available to all members. Rudyard and Janice begin today's special Friday Focus episode with the Trump initiated ceasefire that allows both Israel and Iran to claim some measure of victory. But does Trump have the power to make the truce hold? Bibi is learning that American help comes with a price, and the Israeli PM is no longer in the driver's seat. Pulling back to look at the bigger picture, Rudyard and Janice explain how America's involvement in this war is a game changer that has reinforced American power in the Middle East and beyond. Has this past week's events - including the notable absence of China and Russia in this conflict - challenged the idea that we are moving into a multipolar world? Have we underestimated American power in the 21st century? And finally, how will a weakened Iranian regime respond domestically to the penetration of its military and collapse of its nuclear program?

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHSo Benji is out in the literal field. He's watching this plane that is about to take off. And here's what you need to know - the package is on that plane. He's doing this mission with Brandt who is back at HQ. Luther pipes in cuz I guess he can help now and he makes it to where Benji can access the plane remotely. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Ethan comes running through the field and tells Benji to open the door. Once Benji figures out which door he means, he finds these canisters holding nerve gas and pushes them out the back. THEME SONG TIME!  Some time later, Ethan walks into a record store where he uses some coded language to get a vinyl which will show him his next mission. While the message is playing, it is revealed that the message is from The Syndicate which is a group Ethan has been tracking for a year. They tell him that if he continues to go after them, he will die. He looks out and sees a dude in glasses who kills the women who gave him the record as gas causes Ethan to go unconcious.  Cut to a senate meeting with Brandt and  CIA director Alan Hunley. They demand that the IMF be disbanded due to the events that happened in Russia.  We see that Ethan is being held hostage. A women comes in, takes off her shoes, and just kinda stares at him for a while. Then some baddies come in, one of which is known as the Bone Doctor. Just as he's about to do his thing, he is freed by the women. She's Ilsa Faust, an undercover British MI6 agent. But she doesn't leave with him. She convinces them that she was trying to help them as he escaped.  He calls Brandt for help but he says the IMF have been shut down. Ethan now knows he's on his own and that the CIA is going to be looking for him.  6 months later, we see Ethan in a room, He's got a very real beard. And he's just doing some pull ups. The CIA thinks they found him but Ethan is always one step ahead. Ethan is watching them with the finest Nokia cell phone. And CIA Director Hunley is not pleased. He brings Benji in for a polygraph test but Benji insists that he doens't owe Ethan anything and that they aren't friends. When Benji returns to his desk, he has two tickets to the Vienna opera. So he heads to Austria and he is immediately handed a envelope. Inside are some glasses that allow him and Ethan to communicate. Ethan catches him up to speed.  He believe that Lane is going to be at the Opera. Who is Lane? He is the glasses dude that Ethan suspects is the Syndicate's leader. Benji and Ethan discover that the opera is being attended by the Austrian Chancellor which does throw a wrench in the plan. Benji is watching the cameras and sees the potential assassin. Ethan also notices a woman moving around the backstage.  Ethan catches up with the assassin and they fight, but then Ethan notices a 3rd assassin moving into position. There's a lot of assassin's at the opera tonight.   He takes the gun of the first assassin and shoots the Chancellor in the shoulder to save his life. Benji attacks the 3rd shooter in the lighting booth, and the women, who turns out to be Ilsa from the beginning shoots that baddie to save Benji.  Ethan finds Ilsa and they escape in time to see the Chancellor's car explode. Hunt helps Ilsa escape the opera. Ilsa jumps out of Ethan's car to make it look like an escape and then is taken to Lane. It appears she's working with him when he questions her loyalty for letting Ethan escape twice.  Ethan figures out that Ilsa is going to Moracco, so he goes to meet up with her and she tells him what she knows - that the baddie is Soloman Lane who used to be British Intellegence and went rogue and started the Syndicate. She claims that Lane kept a ledger of all his operatives which was stolen by one of his operatives and placed in a secure server here in Moracco. The secure server can only be accessed if your profile is already preloaded into the security system that is housed under water. So Ethan dives in and it doesn't exactly go according to plan. He does swap out the security profile but isn't able to escape before running out of oxygen. So Ilsa jumps in and saves him. But then proceeds to take the flash drive with the ledger on it to take to her British intelligence boss who says this isn't good enough. She needs to go back to Lane so that he can confirm that thats the real ledger. So she shows back up to Lane but the flash drive has been wiped clean.  We catch up with Benji and Ethan who are found by Luther and Brandt. Turns out, Benji made a copy of the flash drive and it turns out it contains an encrypted British government virtual red box that requires the biometrics of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom to unlock it.  They all travel to London, but Lane's men abduct Benji during the team's meeting and use him to blackmail Ethan into decrypting and delivering the data to him. Despite Brandt's protests, Ethan accepts the mission. Hunley is informed by Brandt to come to London. He shows up to a meeting with Brandt and the Prime Minister. Atlee is also there and has the Prime Minister confirm that the Syndicate is real which is a suprise to Hunley. Atlee then shoots the prime minister with a dart and reveals that Atlee is actually Ethan in a mask. The real Atlee shows up and confirms that he started the Syndicate to recruit former intelligence agents and perform missions without oversight and zero accountability but Lane went rogue. Hunley is like oh my bad. I done goofed.  Ethan and Brandt secure the Prime Minister's biometrics, allowing Luther to decrypt the file. When decrypting the file, it is revealed that the red box actually contains access to £2.4 billion to do with what The Syndicate saw fit.  Ethan destroys the data after deducing that Lane plans to fund The Syndicate with the money. Arriving at the meeting place arranged by Lane, Ethan finds Benji strapped to a bomb and wearing a headset and contact lens camera to serve as Lane's proxy alongside Faust. Ethan tells Lane that he has memorized the data and offers himself in exchange for Benji's safety. Benji escapes after Lane remotely disarms the bomb and Ilsa and Ethan run through the city when the Bone Doctor and his boys show back up.  Ilsa makes the Bone Doctor follow her and she kills him. And Ethan draws Lane out, who has now joined the chase, and lures him into a tunnel system where he ends up in a transparent bulletproof cell where he is gassed, like he did to Ethan at the beginning of the film and taken into custody. Hunley goes to speak to the Senate again and claims that their previous meeting served as a cover to help Ethan expose and shut down The Syndicate and he's now requesting the IMF be reinstated.

Months after anti-Putin activist Alexei Navalny died in a Russian prison, his wife, Yulia Navalnaya, now the leading figure of his political movement, spoke with correspondent Lesley Stahl in Navalnaya's first U.S. interview about her late husband's posthumous memoir. Navalnaya discussed the book – Navalny's last act of defiance against the Kremlin, which chronicles his final three years behind bars under often brutal conditions – and his death, which she blames on Russian president Vladimir Putin. She details Alexei's clandestine operation for penning the memoir inside a high-security prison and then smuggling it out; why the couple decided to return to Russia after Navalny was poisoned; and her daring campaign for justice in the wake of his death. Each year, about 2 million Americans receive a bill from the Social Security Administration, saying they were paid too much in benefits and must pay it back. Even if the error is not their fault, they often still have to pay. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports on how some elderly and disabled people have been burdened with tens of thousands of dollars in debt. Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to the U.K. for an intimate portrait of actor Kate Winslet, Hollywood's most non-Hollywood A-lister, and discusses her transformative journey to starring in and producing her film, “Lee.” Winslet, who has been a vocal advocate against the insults and inequalities facing women in the film industry, relies on this experience for the role, portraying American photographer Lee Miller, who worked for Vogue as one of the few female war correspondents on the frontline of WWII. As Vega discovers, Winslet and Miller share a resilience and see the world through a similar lens, making her connection more than just a role.

Trevor Loudon Reports – Loudon frames the current moment as a pivotal test for Trump's presidency. He criticizes Trump's reluctance to impose sanctions on Russia and China, his decision to block a TikTok ban, and his pressure on Israel to halt operations against Hamas. These actions, Loudon argues, risk snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. If Trump fails to fully support the destruction of...

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Times of Israel founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Horovitz discusses that it isn't clear how much damage has been wreaked on Iranian nuclear facilities by US and Israeli strikes in Iran. He notes the term "obliteration" used by US President Donald Trump and the US Secretary of Defense regarding the Iranian nuclear program and their positioning, alongside the Israeli government, that Iran's nuclear program must be dismantled. Horovitz comments on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's pre-recorded press conference on Sunday, in which he said Iran firing on Israel would not become a new normal, or a war of attrition. The conversation with Horovitz also touches on the geopolitical dynamics involving Russia's relationship with Iran and the impact on Israeli citizens trying to return home amidst the conflict.

Following the publication of Baroness Louise Casey's highly critical report into grooming gangs involved in the sexual exploitation of children, we look at one of her 12 recommendations in detail. The Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, has committed to reviewing the criminal convictions of victims of child sexual exploitation, quashing the criminal records of victims who were “criminalised instead of protected”. Nuala McGovern speaks to Jade, who as a teenager was charged with a grooming offence and is trying to get that conviction overturned. Nuala also hears from Paula Harriott, the CEO of the charity Unlock. Students will spend an average of 25 years on their phones over their lifetime. The average person in school, college or university spends five hours and 30 minutes a day on their mobile, according to a new study by the app, Fluid Focus. Last year Ofcom found that across all adult age groups, women are spending more time online – that's on smartphones, tablets and computers – than men - clocking up an extra 33 minutes more each day. Nuala speaks to Sunday Times journalist Charlotte Ivers about her phone use. More than half of Heart Valve Disease (HVD) cases are women, yet less than half of heart valve surgeries and procedures are on women, according to new data from the charity Heart Valve Voice. Heart valve disease is when one or more of your heart valves do not work like they should. This can affect blood flow and put extra strain on the heart. How can women's symptoms be taken more seriously? Nuala is joined by cardiologist Dr Alison Duncan and HVD patient Jaqueline, who was initially misdiagnosed with anxiety.Three years on since the war with Russia began, more and more young women are choosing to leave the country to continue their lives in Europe, either studying or working. Young men have been banned from leaving Ukraine after they turn 18 since the war broke out and martial law was introduced, but young women are free to leave. Freelance journalist Gabriella Jozwiak has been in the city of Lviv talking to young women about their plans for the future, and joins Nuala. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Emma Pearce

As the dust settles from Operation Midnight Hammer, new revelations paint a grim picture: Iran may have successfully moved weapons-grade uranium before the strike. With enough material to build 9–10 bombs and signs of a desperate rush to weaponize after Hezbollah leader Nasrallah's death, concerns mount over whether the U.S. acted in time—or too late. Tara breaks down satellite intel, conflicting media narratives, and stunning admissions from Russia confirming Iran's nuclear ambitions. As Democrats condemn the strike and question its legality, even some conservatives appear confused. But with 319 Houthi missile attacks, Iran-backed terror at sea, and porous U.S. borders, Tara demands an answer: How do we live with a nuclear-armed Iran?

In this episode of the Nonprofit Newsfeed, hosts George and Nick explore the intricacies of recent mass mobilizations and the challenges facing nonprofits.  The podcast focuses on the recent "No Kings" protests, a massive mobilization across all 50 states with participation from an estimated 5 to 7 million people. Nick shares his firsthand experience at the New York protest, emphasizing the diverse and passionate turnout despite the rain. The event's success hinged on strategic digital organizing through platforms like Mobilize Us and support from major organizations such as the ACLU and Indivisible. A key takeaway is the power of peaceful protest and the impressive organization behind such large-scale events, including a comprehensive 17-page guide for rally hosts. The discussion transitions to the broader theme of attacks on civil society, both domestically and globally. An article from Lawfare highlights how authoritarian regimes worldwide, including those in Nicaragua, Turkey, Hungary, and Russia, are suppressing civil society under the guise of national security. This pattern is mirrored in the U.S., where political rhetoric is increasingly used to justify crackdowns on nonprofits and civil liberties.

On this episode of the podcast former Deputy National Security Advisor and Vice President of National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, Victoria Coates breaks down the most pressing issue today: the United States taking action against Iran to destroy and dismantle their nuclear enrichment centers and program as a whole. Coates offers her expert analysis on escalating tensions in the Middle East and the ongoing threats from China and Russia, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and the importance of energy independence in global diplomacy. Together, Amanda and Victoria dissect how these complex geopolitical dynamics intersect with domestic policy, why America's adversaries feel emboldened, and what a renewed national security strategy under a future conservative administration might look like.You can follow this podcast, Amanda Head, and Victoria Coates on X (formerly Twitter) by searching for the respective handle: @FurthermorePod, @AmandaHead, @VictoriaCoates.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Now we know why the Trump administration was declared the “peace presidency,” because those optics were necessary to escalate global conflict to emergency levels as part of a larger agenda that involved regime change in Iran. From the July, 2024, assassination optics, to the head of Palantir saying the next month in August that the US will fight a 3-front war against Russia, China, and Iran, to the second assassination attempt in September of that year, to the $100-million Mariam Adelson gave Trump beginning in July, it was all part of a build up that culminated in OpenAI winning a $200 million defense contract and Palantir obtaining a $1.3 billion contract from the Pentagon just weeks before the Israeli attack. Now we have learned that despite what American spies said, or US Agencies, or the Director of National Intelligence, or what even the misquoted IAEA said - “no credible indications of ongoing, undeclared structured nuclear programme” in Iran - that Palantir's MOSAIC counterinsurgency-AI was responsible for the Israeli attack, and now the American attack on June 21, 2025. This technology was also employed in Ukraine and Gaza, and is set to be used in the United States. Pretty convenient what Karp had predicted back in August, 2024. It's also pretty convenient that a largely Jewish company had the evidence to justify initial and future attacks that produce, if there wasn't before, a threat and an enemy.Palantir, OpenAI and Meta have also had executives appointed to the US military by the Trump administration in recent days.What's even more telling is that the attack on Iran by US forces occurred the summer solstice, a three day festival historically, and on a waning moon, the phase of Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft and the underworld, to help protect the B-2 bombers. This plays well with the Israel attack on Friday 13 at 3:30am, the witching hour, and the Jewish holidays that corespondent to the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Libya. The initial Israel attack also occurred with Mars, god of war, in Leo, the lion, corresponding with both astrology and the biblical lion as the operation was called Rising Lion. The Summer solstice also aligns with the story of Samson and his solar hair, itself used as the name of Israel's not-so-secret nuclear weapons plan to destroy the world before the government falls. October 7, 2001, was the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, and the day the Bush administration initiated operations in Afghanistan; March 20, 2003 was the Jewish holiday of Purim, and the day Operation Iraqi Freedom began with preemptive airstrikes on a country that did not posses WMDs; October 20, 2011 was the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, and day Libya was officially overthrown with the death of Muammar Gaddafi; September 22, 2014, was the first day of Rosh Hashanah, and also the day the U.S. officially intervened in Syria against ISIS under Operation Inherent Resolve; October 7, 2023, the date when Israel allowed Hamas to attack them giving rise to the current onslaught, was also a celebration of Shemini Atzeret and a transition of Saturn “returns” through Pisces.Few stop to question the rhetoric of “Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear bomb,” or “but they chant death to America.” Israel can have secret bombs with no international inspections, though, and the only reasoning given why Iran can't is they would destroy Tel Aviv and maybe an American city because they hate Americans. But you do not need such a bomb to do that, as hypersonic missile have demonstrated in Tel Aviv. And, of course, just like the burning of Bush effigies in Iraq what is the reasoning for this blind hatred. Depending on the context, it varies, but the most recent case of this occurred when the Iranian parliament burned an American flag in protest of the US being pulled out of the “Iran deal” for it being too lenient, i.e., no regime change as far as Israel was concerned. And now we are at war again, based off of WMDs 2.0, i.e., AI algorithms predicting nuclear bombs like we have been sold since 1984 at least when the program was “entering its final stages.” In iconic Orwell fashion, too, Trump referred to entering the war that Israel started as “THE TIME FOR PEACE” - WAR IS PEACE. Virtually his entire base, and even political opponents, are finding justifications for the war as to not lose face, too, another version of IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. An administration of peace cannot threaten countries that want peace, countries that want to try war criminals, and refuse to agree to any kind of peace plan. And we also know that Benjamin Netanyahu was and remains under investigation in his own country for criminal charges ranging from obtaining and leaking top secret documents, protocol tampering, and blackmail, all things shelved on October 7, 2023. Now a few days before the attack on Iran, cross-examination of Netanyahu was about tog begin.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

There is a range of serious practical problems that an end to the war in Ukraine -- whenever that may be -- will pose for the Kremlin. However, if the Soviet war in Afghanistan is any comparison, arguably every bit as important will be the narratives, how people frame the war and use it to attack or defend Putin's regime.

Leftism isn't just misguided; it's a wrecking ball, demolishing truth and reason in its quest for control. The news cycle is a daily reminder of how far they'll go to keep the grift alive, and today's headlines are a goldmine of their self-inflicted wounds.Let's start with Jamie Raskin, the Maryland congressman who's still peddling the Trump-Russia collusion hoax like it's 2016. This guy tweeted that Trump's “owned by the Russians,” despite the Mueller report, Durham investigation, and years of evidence proving the collusion narrative was a Democrat-manufactured lie. Raskin's not dumb—he's just banking on his base's denial. The Left clings to these hoaxes—Russia, January 6th, you name it—because admitting they're wrong means losing their moral high ground. And that's all they've got. Without their “Trump's a traitor” bedtime story, they're just a party of failed policies and bad haircuts.

What does it take to break free from a lifetime of educational conditioning? For Evgenia, a Russian immigrant now homeschooling in Canada, the journey began with a powerful realization: "I don't like to share my child with the government."Growing up in Russia's rigid school system left lasting impressions – some teachers still appear in her nightmares decades later. But becoming a mother transformed everything, shifting her from liberal-minded to questioning mainstream educational approaches. When her son was born, Evgenia discovered a freedom she never knew existed in education.The path hasn't been without challenges. Homeschooling an only child means constant companionship without breaks, especially for her naturally social six-year-old who "always is on me all the time." She candidly shares her evolution from attempting strict "school at home" with her toddler to embracing a more natural learning approach across three languages – Russian, Polish, and English.Perhaps most valuable is Evgenia's insight into sustaining yourself through the intense journey of homeschooling. Her morning ritual before anyone wakes gives her 45-60 minutes of self-renewal – looking at the sun, enjoying nature, practicing self-massage, prayer, and sometimes dancing alone. "I realized I cannot live like this anymore," she explains, "because I want to pour into everyone's cup, but my cup is empty."Her wisdom extends beyond education into wellness: "Use your kids as motivation to take care of yourself." This perspective reframes self-care not as selfish but essential – we're modeling behaviors our children will carry into adulthood. Whether you're considering homeschooling, struggling with balancing parenthood, or simply seeking a fresh perspective on education, Evgenia's story reminds us that learning never stops for parents or children.Free resources https://www.atnourishedmotherhood.com/free-resourcesFREE Challenge that starts June 30th 3-Day Metabolic Reset https://www.atnourishedmotherhood.com/page/649877What is the most important thing we can teach our kids?HOW TO HANDLE AN EMERGENCY!This could mean life or death in some cases!Help a child you know navigate how to handle an emergency situation with ease:Let's Talk, Emergencies! -and don't forgetTuttle Twins- use code Cheryl15 for 15% off!Support the showInstagram: TheHomeschoolHowToPodcast Facebook: The Homeschool How To Podcast

Cruz vs. Carlson on Foreign Policy: Cruz defends a strong U.S. alliance with Israel and supports aggressive action against Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Carlson is portrayed as advocating for isolationism, opposing U.S. involvement in foreign conflicts, and questioning support for Israel. Tensions and “Gotcha” Moments: Carlson challenges Cruz with questions like the population of Iran, which Cruz admits he didn’t know offhand. Cruz criticizes Carlson for using such moments to create viral clips rather than engage in substantive debate. Iranian Threats Against Trump: Cruz cites intelligence and DOJ reports alleging that Iran has plotted to assassinate Donald Trump and former Trump officials. Carlson is skeptical or unaware of these claims, leading to a heated exchange. Accusations of Anti-Israel Bias: Cruz accuses Carlson of obsessively targeting Israel and groups like AIPAC, suggesting a double standard not applied to other U.S. allies. Moral Clarity and American Exceptionalism: Cruz argues against moral relativism, asserting that the U.S. and its leaders are fundamentally different from authoritarian regimes like Russia or Iran. He emphasizes “peace through strength” and a foreign policy based on protecting American interests. Trump’s Position: Trump is quoted supporting Cruz’s stance and reaffirming his own “America First” doctrine, particularly in opposing a nuclear-armed Iran.

James Carville joins Joanna Coles for a bracing tour through the foreign policy civil war inside MAGA—and why it could tear the coalition. As Israel and Iran square off, so do Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, and Tulsi Gabbard versus Trump, Pete Hegseth, and Mark Levin. Carville breaks down the long-simmering ideological rift now boiling over, and why Trump's strategic confusion—especially in the Middle East—is dangerous not just for Republicans, but for global stability. He explains why Trump “couldn't find Iran on a globe,” how Tucker's pro-Russia leanings go back decades, and why Americans aren't nearly scared enough about what's coming. Plus: what Carville says is the real cost of Republican loyalty to Trump, and how Democrats can seize this moment—if they're smart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael Calvey (Odyssey Moscow: One American's Journey from Russia Optimist to Prisoner of the State) is an investor, businessman, and author. Michael joins the Armchair Expert to discuss how the Soviet Union existed when he climbed the the matterhorn but had fallen by the time he came down, learning that contact lenses freeze inside one's eyes in Russian temperatures, and being an early tech investor in the Russian during its big recession. Michael and Dax talk about his apartment being deliberately set on fire by rivals, being raided and arrested by armed men in the middle of the night, and feeling betrayed by believing so much in a country that wrongly imprisoned him. Michael explains discovering he had a malignant tumor in his leg while behind bars, what the average Russian citizen thinks of Putin, and why writing this book was both cathartic and cheaper than therapy.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
