This week, we discuss the mostly favorable verdict for Sean Combs, a.k.a. P. Diddy and his upcoming sentencing. In another bizarre sex-related case, two founders of OneTaste, a new-age-female-empowerment-business-slash-sex-cult, have been convicted of coercing their employees into sex acts.Also this week: an update on D.H.S. vs. D.V.D., a case where the Supreme Court's orders have been fairly inscrutable and the litigants have now been deported to South Sudan; another shadow docket victory for the administration; the Trump administration's lawless claim that it can waive the TikTok ban and how there's probably no way for their action to be remedied in the courts; what can be done when a president extracts bribe-like payments from corporations; and we look at the trouble the administration created for itself by fanning the flames of Epstein conspiracies it now can't document.Visit serioustrouble.show to sign up for updates and to access episode transcripts.

What qualifies as an invasion at the U.S.-Mexico Border? In an excerpt from this week's Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance break down a federal judge's ruling blocking President Trump's effort to declare an “invasion” at the border to limit asylum access in the U.S.  In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss two recent Supreme Court decisions. The first case affords parents of elementary school children a religious exemption to school lessons on LGBTQ+ storybooks. And the second case cleared the way for the Trump administration to deport a group of immigrants to South Sudan, even though they have no connection to the country. Plus, Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing blowback following DOJ's disclosure that Jeffrey Epstein didn't have a “client list” and wasn't murdered.

What happens when one woman says yes to the most dangerous prayer imaginable—“Send me where no one wants to go”?In this episode, we sit down with Carole Ward, a missionary and global leader who has followed God into the heart of war-torn nations, daring to believe that faith can transform even the darkest places. Her story begins in 2002 with a simple, radical prayer and unfolds into a powerful testimony of how God's love rescues, restores, and redeems.Told she would return in a body bag if she went to Northern Uganda, Carole obeyed anyway — and God made a way. From rescuing child soldiers from the grip of Joseph Kony's rebel army, to planting seeds of reconciliation in South Sudan, to mobilizing indigenous leaders across 8 northeast African nations, Carole's ministry is nothing short of miraculous.Through Favor International, Carole and her team are witnessing a missions movement fueled not by human strength but by the supernatural power of prayer, discipleship, and the Gospel. Signs, wonders, and miracles are not footnotes—they're the foundation.But the battle isn't over. As war gives way to other strongholds — witchcraft, persecution, and growing resistance — the call is urgent. The harvest is ripe, the time is short, and Carole invites us to join what God is doing until the whole world knows.In this episode, you'll hear:How Carole's dangerous prayer changed everythingStories of redemption from former child soldiersThe power of prayer and fasting in spiritual warfareHow God is expanding His Kingdom in unreached and persecuted regionsLinks & Resources:Learn more about Favor InternationalWatch Carole's testimony videos on YouTubeScripture focus: Mark 16:20 – “The Lord worked with them and confirmed His word by the signs that accompanied it.”Music by: Irene & the SleepersLogo by: Jill EllisWebsite: menomissions.orgContact Us: brokenbanquetpodcast@gmail.com

Michael Popok takes a close look at Sotomayor's dissent, the next steps taken by Judge Murphy to tell the Trump Administration that the Court's ruling doesn't stop his other “remedial” orders, and Trump's DOJ rushing to the Court and asking for a “clarification” because the Judge is being mean and “defiant.” For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to https://3DayBlinds.com/LEGALAF Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Faulty Intel Sparks Firestorm Over Iran Strike Assessment A leaked report suggesting Trump's Iran strike was ineffective relied on faulty signals intelligence. Iranian officials intentionally fed disinformation via tapped calls, misleading DIA analysts. Israeli sources confirm the operation's major success. Bryan calls for top DIA officials to be fired and their Iran shop frozen. Tariff Revenue Surges to Record Levels President Trump's tariff policies are paying off with $26.7 billion collected in June so far. Analysts say this could reduce the U.S. deficit by nearly $3 trillion over the next decade without driving inflation. GE Appliances and Liberty Phone Signal Manufacturing Comeback China-owned GE Appliances will move washing machine production to Kentucky, creating 800 jobs. Meanwhile, debate swirls over whether the Trump family's $500 “Made in USA” phone can actually be built domestically. Liberty Phone shows it's possible—just not fancy. Reshoring Cars Faces Hurdles Ford and GM are reshoring car production, but profits and supply chain challenges remain. Mexico's cheaper labor still makes foreign-made cars more profitable. Tariff clarity from the White House is needed to accelerate change. China Prioritizes Europe for Rare Earth Exports, Snubs U.S. Despite promises, China continues restricting rare earth exports to American companies while increasing shipments to Europe. Trump's team may have struck a new deal earlier this week, but details are unclear. Billionaire-Backed Lawyers Block U.S. Mining Projects Democrat donors like Michael Bloomberg are funding “green fellows” to infiltrate state regulatory boards, slowing or halting traditional mining and energy projects while promoting green energy. Economic Signals: Durable Goods Up, Federal Contractors Down Durable goods orders posted the biggest gain in 11 years. But recurring jobless claims rose and federal contractor hiring is plummeting due to Trump's deep spending cuts. Trump Ends Race-Based Federal Contracts Following a court order, the Trump administration eliminated affirmative action in highway and transit funding.

More shadow docket news on this week's show: The Supreme Court's conservative majority blocked an order from a federal judge in Boston that had imposed due process requirements when the Trump administration tries to deport migrants to countries other than their countries of origin. As is often the case with shadow docket orders, the judges in the majority did not explain their reasoning, leaving the lower courts without clear guidance on what to do next: was the order blocked because the class of affected detainees was too broad, or for some other reason?Plus: an update on California's litigation over federalization of the National Guard, a look at the whistleblower allegations against now-federal-judicial-nominee Emil Bove, a look at the bail decision for Kilmar Abrego Garcia (who's likely to end up in ICE custody regardless), and a discussion of the Trump administration's decision (and Joe Biden's decision) not to assert executive privilege as the House Oversight Committee looks into theories about autopen use in Biden's administration.Go to serioustrouble.show to sign up for our newsletter and join the conversation.

In a 6-3 decision that Justice Sotomayor calls an “abuse of power” by the Supreme Court which turns the nature of Due Process on its head, and rewards the Trump Administration's flagrant violation of federal court orders, the Supreme Court just ruled that human beings without due process or even limited notice can be deported to dangerous countries they are not even from, like South Sudan and Libya. Michael Popok explains how the MAGA majority of the Court just rewarded Trump's bad behavior.

This Day in Legal History: Military Selective Service ActOn June 24, 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed the Military Selective Service Act into law, establishing a peacetime draft system in the United States. The legislation came amid rising tensions with the Soviet Union, as the early Cold War stoked fears about the need for a ready and scalable military force. This marked the first time the United States instituted a draft during peacetime, following the expiration of the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940, which had been enacted during World War II. The new law required all male U.S. citizens and male immigrants between the ages of 18 and 25 to register with the Selective Service System.The Act granted the president authority to induct men into military service, with deferments available for education, occupation, or family hardship, though these often resulted in significant disparities in who actually served. Implementation began swiftly, with the first draft lottery since World War II conducted in 1948. This system remained in effect throughout the Korean War and into the Vietnam era, evolving with amendments but continuing to shape the composition of the U.S. armed forces.The 1948 Act also laid the groundwork for future national service debates, setting precedents for conscientious objector status and administrative appeals. Critics of the draft pointed to inequities and civil liberties concerns, while proponents argued it was essential for national defense and preparedness. Although the draft was suspended in 1973, the Selective Service System persists today, requiring registration for all male citizens and immigrants, preserving the infrastructure in case of future need. The 1948 legislation signified a turning point in American military policy, marking a transition from a wartime to a sustained peacetime defense posture.The Supreme Court on Monday sided with the Trump administration, allowing it to resume deporting migrants to third countries without first giving them a chance to explain potential harm they could face there. This decision lifts a lower court injunction requiring due process protections like notice and a hearing before such removals, a move that drew a forceful dissent from the Court's liberal justices. Justice Sonia Sotomayor called the action a “gross abuse” of power, criticizing the Court for enabling potentially dangerous deportations while legal challenges are ongoing.The underlying policy targets migrants—often with criminal records—whose home countries won't accept them back, prompting the administration to seek deportations to other nations. A class action lawsuit challenged the policy, arguing that such deportations without procedural safeguards likely violate the Constitution's due process clause. Judge Brian Murphy had previously blocked removals to places like South Sudan, citing risks including armed conflict and political instability.Despite Murphy's order, the administration continued efforts to deport individuals to countries such as South Sudan and El Salvador, allegedly in defiance of judicial rulings. The administration maintains the policy is lawful and necessary to manage migrant removals. Immigrant advocates say the Court's decision endangers vulnerable individuals and weakens judicial oversight. The ruling reflects ongoing legal tensions surrounding Trump immigration strategies, many of which have now returned to the courts since his return to office.Supreme Court lifts limits on Trump deporting migrants to countries not their own | ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to begin congressional testimony this week amid political pressure from President Trump to cut interest rates. However, a recent Supreme Court ruling makes clear that Powell, and other Fed governors, cannot be removed over policy disagreements. This means Trump is unlikely to replace Powell before his term as chair ends in May 2026, and he may only get to appoint one additional Fed board member during his current term.Some in Trump's circle have floated the idea of naming a successor now to act as a “shadow” chair, but experts warn that would confuse markets and undermine both the nominee's credibility and the Fed's stability. The Fed's governance structure—with long, staggered terms and a mix of governors and independent regional bank presidents—limits any one president's influence.Despite Trump's calls for immediate rate cuts, Fed officials remain cautious, waiting for more clarity on the economic impact of tariffs and global instability, such as rising tensions with Iran. Interest rate decisions this year have been unanimous, including from Trump-appointed governors. With only two upcoming vacancies, the makeup of the Fed is largely locked in, reinforcing the central bank's independence even in a volatile political climate.Powell is staying at the Fed, with Trump appointments possibly limited | ReutersA federal judge has blocked President Trump's attempt to bar international students from studying at Harvard University, issuing a preliminary injunction that halts the administration's latest move in its ongoing campaign against the Ivy League institution. U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs ruled that the administration's actions likely violated Harvard's First Amendment rights by retaliating against the school for resisting demands to alter its admissions and curriculum practices.Trump had issued a proclamation citing national security concerns, suspending entry of foreign nationals to study at Harvard for six months and directing Secretary of State Marco Rubio to consider revoking current student visas. Judge Burroughs rejected these justifications, stating the government's effort appeared driven by opposition to Harvard's perceived liberal stance, and warned it posed a threat to core democratic freedoms.This ruling extends an earlier order blocking similar measures and comes as Harvard fights back through two separate lawsuits—one to protect $2.5 billion in frozen funding, and another to safeguard its ability to host international students. Nearly 6,800 foreign students attend Harvard, representing about 27% of the student body. Homeland Security had previously attempted to strip the university's certification to enroll foreign students, also without presenting substantive evidence.Accusations from the administration included claims of antisemitism and ties to China, which Harvard disputes. The court's decision allows Harvard to continue welcoming international students while litigation continues, underscoring judicial resistance to executive overreach into higher education autonomy.US judge blocks Trump plan to close Harvard's doors to international students | ReutersIn my column for Bloomberg this week, I argue that the Tackling Predatory Litigation Funding Act, which proposes a 41% tax on litigation finance profits, is more about political optics than sound policy. While the bill claims to combat foreign influence and protect American businesses, it fails on both fronts. It doesn't differentiate between foreign and domestic investors and ignores how economic costs are actually distributed—those costs won't be eaten by funders but passed down to plaintiffs and, ultimately, to defendants via higher settlements. This is basic economics, not a national security fix.We've seen this before with contingent-fee arrangements, where higher costs didn't dampen litigation but merely increased settlement demands. The proposed tax would similarly inflate litigation costs without reducing the flow of capital into the system. It won't stop litigation or foreign investment—it'll just make lawsuits more expensive for everyone involved, including the very corporations the bill purports to protect.The real issue, if one believes foreign interference is a genuine threat, is disclosure—not taxation. Congress could require transparency in litigation finance arrangements instead of disguising a foreign policy concern as a tax policy. By pitching a punitive tax as a protective measure, lawmakers are undermining both tax integrity and judicial credibility. This bill won't fix the problem it pretends to solve; it just sends a message that certain markets are politically disfavored and fair game for symbolic taxation.Litigation Funding Tax Proposal Solves Nothing Besides Optics This is a public episode.

In this episode of The Long Form, I sit down with legendary journalist and thinker Charles Onyango-Obbo, a pioneer of East African journalism and a man whose career has intersected with some of the region's most defining moments.We talk about his frontline coverage of the Rwandan Patriotic Front during the 1990s civil war, the political legacy of President Paul Kagame, the uncertain transition in Uganda after Museveni, and which war-torn states—Somalia, DRC, South Sudan, Burundi—might surprise us in the next 15 years.Charles also reflects on media, memory, and mortality: Can great journalism still thrive in the age of short attention spans? Would he change anything? And what gives him hope — or fear — about the future of East Africa?Listen to the Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya podcast on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/rw/podcast/the-long-form-with-sanny-ntayombya/id1669879621Listen to the Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7HkkUi4bUyIeYktQhWOljcFollow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on Twitter: https://x.com/TheLongFormRwFollow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelongformrw/Follow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@longformrwFollow Sanny Ntayombya on Twitter: https://x.com/SannyNtayombya About Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya:The Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya is a weekly podcast intent on keeping you up to date with current affairs in Rwanda.

There are nearly 70,000 UN peacekeeping personnel serving in 11 missions around the world. My guest today, Jean-Pierre Lacroix, is in charge of them all. He has served as the United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Peace Operations for the last eight years, giving him deep visibility into the unique role that UN Peacekeeping plays in maintaining international peace and security. In our conversation, he describes the work of UN Peacekeeping in places like Cyprus, South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Lebanon, and the work peacekeepers do to prevent conflict and protect civilians.  However, today UN Peacekeeping faces profound financial strain. While the United States contributes very few personnel to peacekeeping, it has historically provided about 25% of the cost of these missions. But the Trump administration is now seeking to eliminate American financial contributions to UN Peacekeeping. In our conversation, Under-Secretary-General Lacroix explains how he is preparing for potential cuts, and what impact such a massive budget shortfall would have on the operations of peacekeeping around the world. This is a pivotal moment for UN Peacekeeping, and Jean-Pierre Lacroix explains what is at stake in terms of the ability of blue helmets to protect civilians in conflict and prevent crises from spilling out of control.

This week on The Horn, Alan speaks with Daniel Akech, Crisis Group's senior analyst for South Sudan, about the deepening political crisis in South Sudan and looming questions about President Salva Kiir's succession. They trace Kiir's rise from military commander to president following South Sudan's independence in 2011 and the breakup of the fragile coalition that had led the country to secession from Sudan, culminating in a devastating civil war in 2013. They examine how Kiir might manage the succession amid growing speculation that his health is declining. They look at Kiir's recent series of government shakeups that have sidelined presidential contenders, including Vice President Riek Machar, co-signatory of the 2018 peace agreement. They also discuss the rapid ascent of Benjamin Bol Mel, a wealthy businessman and increasingly influential but divisive figure who is widely seen as Kiir's potential successor, though he lacks popular support. Finally, they explore how regional actors might respond as South Sudan's political crisis deepens and the risk of renewed civil war looms.Click here to listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

Energy with a grain of saltResearchers have developed a new sodium metal powered fuel cell with up to triple the output for its weight of a lithium-ion battery. The team from  MIT, including Yet-Ming Chiang, think these fuel cells could have enormous potential for electric vehicles — including flight. They say sodium can be electrically produced from salt on a large scale to facilitate this technology. The research was published in the journal Joule.Plants hear their pollinators, and produce sweet nectar in responseA new study has found that plants can respond to the distinctive vibrations of pollinating insects by activating sugar-producing genes to produce rich nectar. In contrast they respond to the sound of nectar-stealing non-pollinators by cutting back on sugar. Francesca Barbero, from the University of Turin in Italy, presented this work at a recent joint meeting of the Acoustical Society of America and 25th International Congress on Acoustics.Penguin poop helps create the cooling clouds over Antarctica Penguin guano is rich in ammonia, and when it accumulates in penguin rookeries in Antarctica, that ammonia is released into the atmosphere, encouraging cloud production. Those clouds reflect sunlight into space, but can also trap sunlight reflected from the ice, so have complex climate interactions. This connection was discovered by University of Helsinki researcher Matthew Boyer, and was published in the journal Nature.Giant sloth family tree suggests trees are just a recent part of itSloths used to be giants the size of bears and even elephants before disappearing around 12,000 years ago. An international group of paleontologists including University of Toronto's Gerry De Iuliis have assembled a comprehensive family tree of the sloth to understand how a group that used to dominate the landscape was winnowed away to only a handful of relatively small, tree dwelling species. The research was published in the journal Science.Eradicating diseases — Can we wipe out ancient and modern plagues forever?In 1980 the World Health Organization declared Smallpox officially eradicated, meaning that for the first time, a plague that killed hundreds of millions of people had been eliminated by human ingenuity. It opened the question of whether we could do this for other lethal threats? We look at efforts to eradicate Polio, an ancient plague, and HIV, a more modern epidemic, to understand how researchers are trying to eradicate these diseases , how close they've come, and what's preventing their final victory.Quirks spoke to Stan Houston, an infectious disease specialist and professor of medicine and public health at the University of Alberta in Edmonton.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Jewish Couple Shot in Hate Crime The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful and emotionally charged discussion centered on the tragic antisemitic double murder of a young couple in Washington, D.C., and the broader implications of rising antisemitism in America. Clay and Buck open the hour with breaking news about the passage of a major bill in the House of Representatives, highlighting its narrow approval and the expected path forward in the Senate. However, the focus quickly shifts to the horrific killing of two Israeli diplomats, a crime the hosts attribute to the dangerous rhetoric and ideology spreading across college campuses and left-wing political circles under slogans like “Globalize the Intifada.” The hosts condemn the mainstream media and political figures for their silence or tepid responses, calling out Representative Ilhan Omar for refusing to comment. They draw parallels between this attack and the October 7 Hamas terrorist massacre in Israel, emphasizing the moral inversion and ignorance among younger generations regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Buck Sexton, drawing on his background in Middle East studies and the CIA, provides historical and geopolitical context, arguing that Hamas’s actions are rooted in a desire to prevent peace in the region, particularly between Israel and Saudi Arabia. The conversation also explores the broader issue of selective outrage and hypocrisy in global human rights advocacy, pointing to the lack of attention to genocides in places like South Sudan. The hosts stress the importance of educating younger Americans about the realities of terrorism, antisemitism, and the existential threats faced by Israel. Sen. Rand Paul on the Big Beautiful Bill Later in the hour, KY Senator Rand Paul joins the show to discuss the implications of the newly passed House bill, particularly its impact on the national debt and fiscal conservatism. Paul criticizes the bill’s projected $4–5 trillion increase to the debt ceiling and warns that Republicans are abandoning their principles by supporting unsustainable spending. He advocates for entitlement reform and a return to fiscal responsibility, warning of the long-term consequences of unchecked deficits. Yael Eckstein reacts on hate crime from Israel Yael Eckstein, President and CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, who offers a powerful response from Israel. She connects the attack to rising global antisemitism and the dangerous rhetoric emerging from pro-Palestinian protests on U.S. college campuses. Eckstein emphasizes the need for unity among Jews and Christians and praises former President Trump for his swift condemnation of the attack. Daniel Cameron on his Senate Run Former KY AG, Republican U.S. Senate candidate in Kentucky, on running to replace Mitch McConnell. Cameron discusses the recent tornado devastation in Kentucky, his campaign to replace Mitch McConnell, and his alignment with Donald Trump’s America First agenda. He emphasizes issues like border security, energy independence, and fighting DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policies. Cameron also addresses the shifting political landscape, particularly how younger men across racial lines are moving away from the Democratic Party due to its stance on masculinity and traditional values.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 128: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump wants – and his Republican Whore House of Representatives could give him, as early as today, more likely tomorrow – a LAW letting him not only ignore the courts and their injunctions or temporary restraining orders - but immunize himself and his minions from even BEING subject to CONTEMPT CITATIONS. The law, cutting the legs off every judge in this country including all of them on the Supreme Court, is sitting deep in the MAGA multi-trillion dollar budget bill, curled up like a snake ready to attack and poison the judiciary. At Trump’s sole discretion. Any court issuing a T-R-O against Trump or his pack of wolves with titles decimating safety regulations or firing tens of thousands of essential government employees; any court issuing an injunction against Trump kidnapping and renditioning people off the street; any court doing anything Trump doesn’t like could rule whatever IT likes but when it came to the only teeth such orders have – the threat of putting somebody who ignores them, IN jail, FOR contempt, would be GONE. The gist of this is the Trumpists found another loophole, about a cash bond requirement if you seek to enjoin the government. It’s normally set by the judge at Zero Dollars. This bill would make any such Contempt of Court findings or Injunctions set at zero… unenforceable. SO ICE has accelerated the renditions, now dismissing old charges that are currently being ajudicated and seizing the defendants at the courtrooms and putting them on flights to South Sudan or Libya or wherever because, if there's no Contempt of Court, who's going to stop them? ALSO: Kristi Noem having no idea what "Habeas Corpus" is? That was the SMART part. She also doesn't think "suspend" means "enact." Why is Trump investigating Andrew Cuomo? So if he gets elected Mayor of New York they can blackmail him into selling OUT New York. CBS is warned by Senators that its "settlement" with Trump may be a criminal bribe. And the bad news for CNN is, it's become a 24/7 Shopping Channel selling Jake Tapper's crap book. The good news is, they'll be televising George Clooney's live Broadway show about Murrow, "Good Night And Good Luck" so at least there'll be some pretend journalists on the network.
