From the BBC World Service: Tech billionaire Elon Musk has picked a fight with Michael O'Leary, the chief executive of Ryanair; after O'Leary said Ryanair wouldn't be offering Musk's Starlink satellite services, Musk floated the idea of buying Ryanair himself. Plus, Lufthansa — one of the world's largest airline groups — says that airspace closures due to war zones are forcing substantial rerouting of flights, with the ban on using Russian and Ukrainian airspace creating detours of one to two hours.

This week we talk about war, inflation, and currency devaluation.We also discuss tyrants, police violence, and social media threats.Recommended Book: Post-Growth Living by Kate SoperTranscriptBack in mid-June of 2025, a shooting war erupted between Iran and Israel, with Israeli military forces launching attacks against multiple Iranian military sites, alongside sites associated with its nuclear program and against individual Iranian military leaders.Iran responded to these strikes, which left a lot of infrastructural damage and several military leaders assassinated, with large waves of missiles and drones against both Israeli and allied military targets, and soon after, later the same month, both sides agreed on a ceasefire and that was that.Following that blip of a war, though, Iran's economy suffered greatly. It already wasn't doing well, in part due to the crippling sanctions enforced by the US government for years, but also because of persistent mismanagement by Iran's ruling regime, and the resultant deterioration of local infrastructure, both physical and bureaucratic.Millions of people fled Iranian urban centers during the war with Israel, and while most of them returned when the ceasefire was brokered, the pace of life and other fundaments of these cities never got back up to where they were, before, as there have been fairly consistent blackouts that have kept people from being able to function as normal, and these outages have also kept businesses from getting back on their feet. That, in turn, has resulted in closures and firings and an overall reduction in economic activity.The general hamhandedness of the government has amplified these issues, and the countless other issues of trying to exist within a country that is being so persistently targeted—both in the sense of those crushing sanctions from the US, but also in the sense of being periodically struck by Israel—has dramatically increased uncertainty throughout Iran these past several years.Even before that brief war, Iran was already on the backfoot, having suffered the loss of their local proxies, including the Assad regime in Syria, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in the Gaza Strip—all of which have been either severely weakened by Israel in recent years, or functionally wiped out—and that in turn has more directly exposed them to meddling and attacks from their key opposition, which includes the US, Israel, and Saudi Arabia.That new vulnerability has put the Iranian government on high-alert, and the compounding effects of all that infrastructural damage, mismanagement, and the need to reallocate more resources to defense has left the country suffering very high levels of inflation, a severely devalued currency, regular blackouts, mass unemployment, a water shortage, and long-time repression from a government that is in many ways more paranoid and flailing than in any time in recent memory.What I'd like to talk about today is a recent wave of protests across Iran and why the US government is apparently considering taking action to support protestors against the Iranian government.—Iran has long suffered all sorts of issues, including regular efforts by ethnic secessionists to pull it apart into pieces they periodically occupy and want to govern, themselves, and concerns from citizens that the government spends a whole lot of their time and the nation's resources enriching themselves, oppressing the citizenry, funding what seems to be a pointless nuclear program, and prioritizing their offensive efforts against Israel and their other regional enemies, often by arming and funding those aforementioned, now somewhat defunct proxy militias and militaries.On top of all that, as of October 2025, inflation in Iran had surged to 48.6% and the Iranian currency, the rial, dropped in value to 1.45 million per dollar. The government tried to artificially boost the value of the rial to 1.38 million per dollar in early January of 2026, but it dropped further, to 1.5 million per dollar a few days later, hitting a record low. This combined with that wild inflation rate, made the basic fundamentals of life, food, electricity, and so on, unaffordable, even for those who still had jobs, which was an ever-shrinking portion of the population.For context, the drop of the rial to a value of 1.38 million per dollar, the boosted value, represented a loss of about 40% of the rial's value since June of 2025, just before that war with Israel, which is a staggering loss, as that means folk's life savings lost that much in about half a year.When currency values and inflation hit that level of volatility, doing business becomes difficult. It often makes more sense to close up shop than to try to keep the doors open, because you don't know if the price you charge for your product or service will make you a profit or not: there's a chance you'll sell things at a loss, because the value of the money you receive and the cost of goods you require, both to survive and to keep your business functioning, will change before the day ends, or before the sale can be completed.Iran's economic crisis has further exploded in the past few weeks, then, because all those issues have compounded and spiraled to the point that simply selling things and buying things have become too risky for many people and entities, and that means folks are having even more trouble getting food and keeping the lights on than before; which becomes a real survival issue, on top of the regular crackdowns and abuses by the government that they've suffered in various ways for decades.In 2022, those abuses and limits on personal rights led to large protests that were catalyzed by the death of a 22-year-old woman named Mahsa Amini, who was in police custody for allegedly wearing her hijab improperly. Those 2022 protests were historically large—the biggest in the country, by some estimates at least, since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.On December 28 2025, a group of shopkeepers in Iran's capital city, Tehran, went on strike, closing their shops in protest against what's been happening with Iran's economy; again, it's basically impossible to safely do business in a country with that much inflation and currency devaluation happening.Other shopkeepers followed suit, and large protests formed around these closed shops. Those protests flooded social media platforms in short order, protestors shouting slogans that indicated they were pissed off about all the economic mismanagement in the country, and then eventually that led to anti-government slogans being shouted, as well.Things remained peaceful at these protests, at first, and they expanded across the country within the next few days, shops closing and people filling the streets.By the fourth day, police had started to use live ammunition and tear gas against protestors, some of the protestors were killed, and things spiraled from there.By December 31, the government ordered a total, nationwide business shutdown, to try to get ahead of these protests, which again tended to revolve around the shutdown of businesses in protest—the government said they were making this call because of cold weather, but the writing was kind of on the wall at this point that they were scrambling to make it look like businesses were shutting down because they said so, not in protest of the government.The government also announced that they would start cracking down on protestors, hard, and on the first day of 2026, things escalated further, police using even more force against those who gathered, which of course led to more protests in more places, more angry slogans being shouted, and more protestor deaths at the hands of government forces.Protests had spread to all 31 Iranian provinces by early January of 2026, and at this point there were only 17 confirmed deaths.US President Donald Trump got involved around this time, maybe feeling confident following the successful nighttime grab of Venezuelan President Maduro; whatever the case, he warned the Iranian government not to shoot protestors, or the US government might have to get involved, coming to the protestors' rescue.Iran's government responded by saying the rioters must be put in their place, suppressing the funerals of protestors, and muffling local internet service, slowing down access speeds and increasing the number of outages by about a third. They threatened to execute hundreds of protestors by hanging, then said they wouldn't. Trump declared this to be a personal victory, though the Iranian government has used his insinuation of himself into the matter to position the fight as Iran against the US, the protestors backed by their great enemy, which has shown itself to be responsible for these protests.The government then started forcing captured protestors to make confessions on video, which only seemed to further anger the non-arrested protestors, and some protestors began to fight back, in one case setting a police officer on fire, and in other cases local militia groups defended protestors against police, leading to several deaths.Iran's government shut down more communication services in an attempt to regain control, in some cities taking down the internet completely, though some information, photos and videos of police abuses of protestors still made it out into the wider world using satellite services like Starlink, and by the 9th of January, protests reached a scale that rivaled and maybe surpassed those seen during the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and protestors began to set fire to buildings associated with the Islamic Republic, the government, and directly clashing with security forces in some cases.Hundreds of people were reportedly killed per day from that point forward, and thousands were rushed to hospitals, overwhelming local doctors.Thousands of people were also violently killed by police, under cover of the now complete internet blackout, and on January 10th, it was estimated that around 2,000 protestors had been killed in the past two days, alone, while other estimates from inside and outside Iran range from 12,000 to 20,000 protestors killed by the government. The most reliable source I could find, as of last weekend, indicated that the true number of dead is something like 3,300 people, at minimum.In the past week or so, the Iranian government has apparently figured out how to jam Starlink internet signals, making it even more difficult for protestors to share what's happening in the country, and President Trump posted on his social network, Truth Social, telling Iranian citizens that they should overthrow the government and that help is on the way.The Iranian government has arrested tens of thousands of people, has tanks patrolling their towns and cities, and seems to have successfully quashed protests for the time being; no protests at all were reported across the country as of mid-January, and so many people were killed and injured that hospitals and other institutions are still overwhelmed, trying to work through their backlog; much of the country is in mourning.Government forces are reportedly going door to door to arrest people who were spotted in CCTV and social media footage participating in protests, and they've set up checkpoints to stop people, look through their phones, and arrest them if any photos or videos are found that indicate they were at protests, deleting that digital evidence in the process.This remains a fast-moving story and there's a chance something significant, like the US striking Iranian government targets, or renewed, more focused protests will arise in the coming days and weeks.Some analysts have argued that it's kind of a no-brainer for the Trump administration to hit the Iranian government while it's strained in this way, because it's a long-time enemy of the US and its allies that's currently weak, and doing so would reinforce the narrative, sparked with the capture of Maduro, that Trump's administration is anti-tyrant; which is questionable by most measures, but again, this is a narrative, not necessarily reality. And narratives are powerful, especially going into an election year.It's also possible that, because economic conditions in Iran haven't changed, that this is just the beginning of something bigger; protestors and militias taking a moment to regain their footing and consider what they might do to have more of an impact when they start back up again.Show Noteshttps://www.iranintl.com/en/202601130145https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/31/we-want-the-mullahs-gone-economic-crisis-sparks-biggest-protests-in-iran-since-2022https://www.nytimes.com/article/iran-protests-inflation-currency.htmlhttps://www.fdd.org/analysis/2025/06/25/mapping-the-protests-in-iran-2/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/10/us/politics/trump-iran-strikes.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/10/world/middleeast/iran-protests-death-toll.htmlhttps://www.reuters.com/world/china/iranian-mp-warns-greater-unrest-urging-government-address-grievances-2026-01-13/https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/iran-is-hunting-down-starlink-users-to-stop-protest-videos-from-going-global-d8b49602https://archive.is/20260114175227/https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/bank-collapse-iran-protests-83f6b681https://www.cbsnews.com/news/iran-protest-death-toll-over-12000-feared-higher-video-bodies-at-morgue/https://sundayguardianlive.com/world/did-irans-currency-collapse-rial-plummets-to-000-against-euro-while-inflation-protests-escalate-across-the-country-164403/https://archive.is/20260116034429/https://www.ft.com/content/5d848323-84a9-4512-abd2-dd09e0a786a3https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm2jek15m8nohttps://theconversation.com/the-use-of-military-force-in-iran-could-backfire-for-washington-273264https://archive.is/20260114182636/https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/01/14/iran-regime-protest-trump-strike/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/16/world/middleeast/iran-protests-deadly-crackdown.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/17/world/middleeast/iran-ayatollah-khamenei.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025%E2%80%932026_Iranian_protestshttps://www.en-hrana.org/day-thirteen-of-the-protests-nighttime-demonstrations-continue-amid-internet-shutdown/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_Iran_internal_crisishttps://apnews.com/article/iran-protests-trump-khamenei-fc11b1082fb75fca02205f668c822751 This is a public episode.

**Note: When stuff in Iran goes down, my natural inclination is to avoid doing content and stay above the fray, at least until the media hysteria dies down.  Not the best way to run a media project, I know, but I just have a hard time with all the breathless coverage--BREAKING!!!--and don't really want to feed it. Even then, I am still Iranian, and if people ask me to record during these times, my cultural programming compels me to accept the invitation.    This episode of Peacemongers with Mehmet and Erik was recorded as I was travelling for work recently and at the end of a busy, emotional day.  The scale of what had just transpired in Iran was becoming clear to me that morning in between working on the footage I had recorded the day earlier, itself an intense and emotional experience for entirely different, non-Iran-related reasons.  All of this is to say that by the time I recorded with these guys that afternoon, I was feeling pretty loopy. You can kinda hear it at the beginning of the episode when I had the giggles and infected everyone else with them!  I have no idea how I come off in this episode (too lazy to check it too, sorry), and I was reluctant to even post to this feed!! In my memory, I was exceptionally wandering in my rants.  Maybe I'm wrong and it's the same Sini as usual. IDK.**  ---------------------- "Listen to the Iranians" they kept saying. Well, we give you Sina Rahmani, the indomitable host of @eastpodcast and producer of countless other anti imperialist shows. We talk about the events in Iran which have been one-sidedly and sensationally presented in the west. In the background the Empire and the Ethno-state have their fingers dirty. So why is Iran such an important target for the Empire and what does it mean to be sovereign? We discuss some of the contents of the imperial toolbox and factors leading up to the protests. Economic pressure with sanctions and currency manipulation, smuggling of Starlink units and weapons to foment violent riots and the media machinery. We discuss the Shah and his son, the clown-prince in exile, Iranian diaspora, support for Palestine and what the destruction of the Iranian state would mean to people in the area. While the battle may be over the war might just have begun. The peoples and states in the crosshairs of a dying empire will keep being demonised. If they resist they are authoritarian, if they open up they'll be vulnerable. What the future holds and what the way forward to avoid a devastating war is unknown. Early in the episode Sina reads a testimony from his friend Navid Zarinnal, who is living in Teheran. He hosts a podcast on imperialism called The Colony Archive, which we highly recommend. Please note that we had some technical difficulties in the beginning, that led to a lot of chaos and laughter. Big thanks to Sina for being such a joyful human being even in these difficult times.

There are moments when power hesitates — not because it's confused, and not because it's honest — but because it assumes it no longer has to explain itself.This episode of Boiler Room examines that moment.Broadcast live from Central Texas, host Bryan “Hesher” McClain is joined by Adam “Ruckus” Clark for a long-form breakdown of a week defined by narrative overreach, information saturation, and the growing difficulty of separating signal from psychological operations.From escalating rhetoric surrounding Iran and unverifiable reports of mass casualties, to the quiet normalization of AI integration into military systems, to domestic crowd-control preparations and raw political optics caught on camera, the discussion traces a single through-line: modern propaganda no longer collapses cleanly — it blinks.When credibility becomes collateral damage, saturation replaces persuasion, and consent is assumed rather than earned, the cracks begin to show.Topics covered include:Escalation narratives and information warfare surrounding IranViral imagery, casualty claims, and the credibility gap between speed and verificationGrok and the normalization of AI inside military and classified networksTechnocracy, dual-use technology, and the consolidation of powerNational Guard “response forces,” civil unrest planning, and historical precedentMedia degradation, AI-generated deception, and epistemic collapsePolitical optics unraveling in unscripted momentsDisaster narratives, pattern recognition, and the limits of skepticismThis episode is not about debunking individual headlines — it's about recognizing patterns of behavior when authority stops whispering and starts rushing.Boiler Room remains a space for critical analysis, open-source scrutiny, and conversations that resist narrative management — especially when the information environment itself is unstable.Reference Links:Ice Breaker: Matt Damon Says Netflix Wants Plots Reiterated “Three or Four Times in the Dialogue” for Phone-Distracted ViewersPentagon taps Elon Musk's AI “Grok” for military useUS Taxpayers will pay $83 BILLION to build Venezuela's oil infrastructure to benefit oil companies & Israeli billionairesThe allegedly siezed Starlink gear (Iran)Trump got pissed off at heckler with legitimate grievance and gave him the birdTrump's new defense plan quietly creates a National Guard “response force” trained for crowd control and civil unrestDavid Icke on “Wildfires Currently Raging in Argentina's Patagonia Region Could Be A 15-Minute City Arson Job Similar to Malibu and Maui”Can't Trust the internet anymore – Real time AI Deep Fake tech improves to the point of practically indistinguishable Support:Support BOILER ROOM & ACRPatreon (Join and become a member)Shop BOILER ROOM Merch Store

Zak Kassas, Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The Ohio State University, recently released a white paper on “Navigating the Arctic Circle with Starlink and OneWeb LEO Satellites” and shares his insights. The study suggests that radio signals from low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites could become reliable navigation alternatives, as disruptions to GPS services increase globally. Zak helps us understand how he reached that conclusion.  You can read  “Navigating the Arctic Circle with Starlink and OneWeb LEO Satellites” here.

A high frequency “energy membrane” or “bubble” is forming around the Earth that will help the collective ascension of humanity according to Dr. David Clements, a former professional physicist. He says that the membrane is part of a network of twelve that project outwards from the Earth's core that have been created by highly evolved extraterrestrials working closely with the planetary consciousness. The membranes will help protect the Earth from unpredictable solar events and also facilitate the development of higher states of consciousness up to 5D and 6D levels, according to Dr. Clements.He says that January 15 is a critical date as that is when the outermost membrane is completed in low Earth orbit. The coincidental deployment of 4400 Starlink satellites to low Earth orbit around the same time may be related to an official effort to neutralize the frequency membrane, but human technology will be unable to interfere, according to Dr. Clements. In an in-depth discussion with Dr Michael Salla, they analyze recent developments concerning the accelerated use and deployment of Artificial Intelligence in the Trump administration and why AI will prove to be unsuitable in the long term, as more humans develop a strong connection to source intelligence. Finally, humanity is not destined to split into different frequency groups, but will instead collectively evolve with connectivity with source intelligence being the sine qua non of future life on Earth, according to Dr. Clements.

On today's episode, we discuss how collapsing national currencies—from Iran's rial to Venezuela's bolívar—are driving ordinary people into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a last‑ditch store of value. Mark explains why institutional players like Vanguard and Morgan Stanley are finally recommending small crypto allocations, how ETF filings and FOMO are pushing Bitcoin higher, and why none of this should be confused with personalized investment advice. From there, the conversation moves to practical home tech: VPNs, Starlink, and why reliable local storage and good passwords still matter more than shiny gadgets when the internet goes dark. James and Mark also kick around Elon Musk's AI and robotics ambitions—Grok, xAI, Optimus, and full self‑driving Teslas—debating whether a Unix‑like, tightly controlled “Apple‑style” stack will prove safer than a more open, Windows‑like ecosystem for autonomous vehicles. A creek‑flooding scenario near James's house becomes a case study in what current self‑driving systems still miss, forcing humans to override software that cannot yet reliably interpret brown, moving water across a road. That leads into a broader discussion of how many edge cases engineers must sample before regulators will bless truly driverless cars, and why early adopters will inevitably be the ones whose mishaps teach the machines. Throughout, they keep circling back to a core theme: in both finance and transportation, new tech may be transformative, but ordinary users still have to live with the bugs, crashes, and unintended consequences of bleeding‑edge systems. Don't miss it!

SHOW SCHEDULE1-14-251920 SALT RIVER China Urges Canada to Break from US Influence. Guests: CHARLES BURTON and GORDON CHANG. China is pressuring Canada to adopt "strategic autonomy" and distance itself from US influence as PM Mark Carney visits Beijing. Despite myths of economic salvation through Chinese trade, experts argue Canada'sexports to China remain minimal. Concerns persist regarding fentanyl production, Arctic neglect, and Chineseespionage. China's "Hollow Power" in Iran and Venezuela. Guests: GORDON CHANG and CHARLES BURTON. China's influence appears limited as it fails to substantively support struggling allies like Venezuela's Maduro or the Iranian regime. While China remains a major purchaser of discounted Iranian oil, it has proven unable to dictate events against US pressure. Experts describe China as a "hollow power." Trump's Iran Tariff Threat and China Trade Rift. Guest: ALAN TONELSON. President Trump's threat of a 25% tariff on any country trading with Iran significantly impacts China, which values this trade for political and symbolic reasons. China has already failed to meet its previous trade obligations, including soybean purchases and rare earth export licenses. Europe remains economically vulnerable. Electricity Costs, AI Demand, and Venezuela's Oil Reality. Guest: BUD WEINSTEIN. Rising US electricity prices, up 30-35% over five years, are driven by data center and AI growth alongside infrastructure underinvestment. Meanwhile, Venezuelan oil is deemed impractical for US demand due to high extraction costs and political instability. Rebuilding these fields would require massive, high-risk investments. Chinese Sinister Intentions in Cuba and Nicaragua. Guest: STEVE YATES. China maintains a significant presence in Cuba, utilizing the island for intelligence gathering and signals facilities targeted at the United States. As Venezuela's oil subsidies to Cuba potentially end, the island faces economic collapse. The US may utilize travel restrictions and economic pressure as leverage. The Risks of Venezuelan Oil and Soaring Copper Prices. Guest: SIMON CONSTABLE. American oil companies remain reluctant to invest in Venezuela due to the historical risk of nationalization and decayed infrastructure. In commodity markets, copper has reached an "astronomical" price of over $6 per pound, leading to a surge in theft from electronics and bridges globally. Artemis 2 Safety Concerns and SpaceX Dominance. Guest: BOB ZIMMERMAN. The Artemis 2 manned mission faces controversy over unresolved Orion heat shield damage observed during previous tests. Meanwhile, SpaceX has secured a monopoly on recent Space Force contracts, signaling a shift toward prioritizing reliability and cost over redundancy. China has filed for 200,000 new satellites. Scouting Mars for Helicopters and the Search for Alien Life. Guest: BOB ZIMMERMAN. Scientists are scouting landing sites for future Mars helicopters in areas containing near-surface ice, potentially for future Starship missions. Research suggests liquid water may have existed on Mars three billion years ago under protective ice sheets. Recent SETI results analyzed billions of data points without finding definitive alien signals. Venezuela's Power Vacuum and the Path Forward. Guest: MARY KISSEL, Executive Vice President at Stephens Incorporated. Mary Kissel discusses the "unfinished" state of Venezuela following the removal of Maduro, characterizing the remaining leadership as "thugs" and "gangs" focused on drug money. She explores the roles of Cuba, regional neighbors like Colombia and Brazil, and the Vatican's new moral leadership in the region. Iran in Transition: Assessing a Regime on the Brink. Guest: MARY KISSEL, Executive Vice President at Stephens Incorporated. John Batchelor and Mary Kissel analyze reports of Iran's potential collapse, citing internet blackouts and regime brutality. They discuss potential U.S. interventions, such as kinetic strikes or Starlinkaccess, and evaluate whether Reza Pahlavi is a credible transitional leader amidst concerns of the country breaking into ethnic factions. The Intellectual Factions of the "New Right". Guest: PETER BERKOWITZ, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow. Peter Berkowitz outlines the fracturing of the "New Right" into factions like national conservatives and post-liberals. Referencing Laura K. Field's book, Furious Minds, he notes these groups often reject Lockeanprinciples in the Declaration of Independence. However, he distinguishes these intellectuals from typical, non-ideological Trump voters. The New Right's Radical Rejection of Traditional Republicanism. Guest: PETER BERKOWITZ, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow. Berkowitz contrasts the New Right's desire for state-led social reform with the Republican Party's traditional focus on liberty and limited government. He discusses Michael Anton's views on the "right of revolution" and warns that attacking classical liberalism risks eroding essential protections against bigotry and persecution in America. Plunging Russian Oil Prices and the Impact of Global Sanctions. Guest: MICHAEL BERNSTAM. Russian oil prices are dropping significantly, with some major brands selling between $34 and $35 per barrel. Westernsanctions and global supply gluts allow buyers like China and India to extract massive discounts. Future stability in Iran could further increase competition, driving Russian revenues and taxes even lower. Pakistan's $1.5 Billion Arms Deal with Sudan and China's Strategic Influence. Guests: RICK FISHER and GORDON CHANG. Pakistan is nearing a deal to supply jets and drones to Sudan, likely funded by Saudi Arabia. China uses these transactions to establish alternative security structures in the Middle East. Experts suggest China prefers ongoing conflict over peace to maximize profits and regional influence. The Collapse of the Chinese Real Estate Market and Economic Stagnation. Guests: ANNE STEVENSON-YANG and GORDON CHANG. China's property sector faces a permanent downturn, with prices dropping 30–60% and enough vacant apartments to house billions. The government lacks the funds for a rescue. Xi Jinping'sfocus on high-tech is insufficient to replace real estate, which previously accounted for 25% of GDP. The China-Iran Partnership: Oil, Surveillance, and Regional Stability. Guest: JACK BURNHAM. Chinamaintains a pragmatic "partnership" with Iran, focused on extracting discounted oil. Beijing provides surveillance technology to help the Iranian regime suppress internal protests while officially calling for stability. Additionally, Chinese or Russian technology is suspected of disrupting Starlink satellites to hinder military communications.

For my first conversation with Rabbi Tarlan see here: https://youtu.be/g3Nnmh85gRg?si=VLydkG2nV6GuV8EcThere's been a major communications blackout in Iran — and while most people in the West barely saw it on the front page (if at all), people on the ground and their families abroad are living it in real time.Rabbi Tarlan Rabizadeh joins me to talk about what she's hearing from friends and community members, how people are getting information out (VPNs, Starlink, scraps of footage), and why the story is so hard to cover — and so easy to ignore.We also get into the bigger picture: why the outrage machine that dominated social media for years seems… oddly quiet now, how authoritarian regimes use scapegoats (yes, including “Zionists”) as a default playbook, and what it means when the most basic human-rights crisis doesn't fit neatly into a viral narrative.And at the end, Rabbi Tarlan says something that genuinely stuck with me: she doesn't think she'd have the guts to do what people in Iran are doing right now — and honestly, I probably wouldn't either.Chapters / Topics:Internet blackouts + what families are hearingStarlink and why tech suddenly becomes “life or death”Why this isn't leading the news cycleThe double standard in human-rights coverageIran, proxies, and the propaganda ecosystemWhat people can actually do: amplify, share, don't look away#iran #iranrevolution #iranprotests #palestine #gaza #columbia ______________________________Jewish History, Politics, Israel, Antisemitism, and Zionism - I cover it all.Politics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6QupJZ1HLY&list=PLQ3aQmFcYiCqqL-GSNw6NhSZWOvzaDdIKJewish History: https://youtu.be/1u4jHoZ8stM?si=0jZP4uhXlVEg2NOTAntisemitism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCgnEZ1d24Q&list=PLQ3aQmFcYiCqkU_aPIJGbE1xTKEbkh8euFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/daniel.levine.31/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rabbidaniellevine/#israel #rabbi #jewish # WhatisZionism #dojews ?

The formal indictment states that Lin and his accomplices allegedly facilitated the transfer of tens of millions of dollars obtained from the sale of fentanyl, cocaine, and methamphetamine in the United States back to Mexico, through an opaque financial chain involving cash purchases of electronic goods and shipments to Asian countries. According to the case filed in federal court in Cincinnati, between 2022 and 2024, Mexican drug-trafficking groups hired this organization to handle the cash generated from drug sales within U.S. territory. The procedure described includes handing over large amounts of physical cash to third parties, who used the funds to buy electronic products. Once the receipt of these goods was confirmed, payment was sent to Mexico through mirror transactions, after deducting a commission. Partial records indicate that at least $27.4 million in cash was moved through this network. The indictment, which includes charges of conspiracy to launder money and concealment of funds, indicates that the alleged operator could face up to 20 years in prison if convicted by a federal court.

The party he helped build face-planted electorally. But the playbook didn't disappear. It just waited.

No clear funding trail. No real policy spine. But momentum. The uncomfortable part for Brussels isn't whether Orban is good or bad. It's that this confirms what his supporters have said for years: The EU doesn't just pressure governments. It actively works around them when they won't comply. Rule of law language on the surface. Regime-management instincts underneath.

Musk Stands Up Against the Ayatollahs, as Iranian Regime Cracks Down on Starlink Terminals, Deploys Military-Grade Jammers Against Sole Internet Option for Protesters   At the beginning of the massive popular demonstrations in Iran, Elon Musk took the bold initiative of providing free Starlink services for the protestors. A few days in, Iran shut down the Internet in the entire country. For the first time since 2019, a nationwide blackout was imposed, disrupting phone networks and landline telephones. Starlink became the sole web outlet for protesters to get informed, communicate, and share the images of the momentous developments with the world. It didn't take long for the brutal Iranian regime to crack down on Starlink terminals, arrest ‘terrorist' users, and deploy military-grade jammers to impede the functioning of the service. Now, reports say SpaceX engineers are hard at work to bypass the jamming and give protesters a voice, again.

That is demographic manipulation. When law enforcement records misclassify race and suppress immigration status, the downstream effect is predictable. Crime statistics are distorted. Public understanding is corrupted. Accountability disappears. Police departments know exactly why this is done. Federal crime data is aggregated by race. When offenders who are foreign nationals are reclassified into domestic racial categories, the real source patterns are buried. The public is then fed a sanitized dataset that supports preselected talking points. This is not about one case. It is about how the books are cooked so trends can never be honestly discussed. News outlets compound the deception. They repeat the arrest sheet verbatim, never asking why immigration status is missing, never questioning implausible physical descriptors, never pressing the department for clarification. The omission is the story, and they deliberately ignore it. That is not journalism. That is information control. If the individual were a citizen, the records would say so. If the individual were legally present, that status would be highlighted immediately. Silence only appears when the truth is politically inconvenient. That silence protects institutions, not victims. Two teenagers are dead, and the system's first instinct was not transparency, but insulation. This is exactly why public trust is collapsing. People are not stupid. They can see when reality does not match the paperwork. When law enforcement manipulates categories and media outlets run interference, the public correctly concludes that the truth is being managed rather than reported. The question is simple. If the data were honest, why hide it. If the classification were accurate, why does it defy common sense. If transparency mattered, why was immigration status erased. This is not incompetence. It is intent. https://twitter.com/TheStormRedux/status/2011214982881386564?s=20  Solomon & Emmer on his podcast today.

The President took selfies with some of the workers as he made his way through the plant. However, at one point, a disgruntled worker screamed obscenities at the President as he walked with Ford Executive Chairman Bill Ford, Jr. The heckler appeared to shout, “pedophile protector!” as Trump toured the plant. President Trump shot back with a middle finger and appeared to say or mouth, ‘f*ck you.' White House spokesman Steven Cheung defended Trump and said, “A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response.” WATCH: Trump Flips Off Heckler at Ford Plant   Now here's the update: According to the Detroit Free Press the loudmouth employee was suspended after the rude attacks on President Trump.

Here is what Tom said, “Hey, everyone. Huge news. Judicial Watch lawsuits led to the cleanup of 4 million dirty names from the voting rolls in just the last two years or so. But there's more heavy lifting to be done for cleaner elections. That's why Judicial Watch just sued the state of Oregon to force it to finally clean up its voting rolls, which are a mess. Federal law requires states to take reasonable steps to clean up their voting rolls, and Oregon hasn't been doing that. In fact, our new lawsuit, Just Filed For and With the Constitution Party of Oregon and Oregon Voters, details how 29 of Oregon's 36 counties removed few or no registrations as required by federal election law. Oregon and 35 of its counties had overall registration rates exceeding 100%. Frankly, Oregon has the highest known inactive registration rate of any state in the nation. Dirty voting rolls can mean dirty elections.   Tom Fitton announced that the Oregon Secretary of State announced removal of 800,000 dirty names from the state's voter rolls. https://twitter.com/TomFitton/status/2010748003834016216?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2010748003834016216%7Ctwgr%5Ed441c69e8d73f0694063c2d5ef9f04f6759470f5%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F01%2Fanother-victory-tom-fitton-judicial-watch-oregon-agrees%2F   Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2011464963257196757?s=20 to 2 weeks SCOTUS has upheld Rep.

The Dems' entire platform revolves around election fraud and retaining/expanding their power. Hence why they don't want ICE/US MIL deporting illegals in their sanctuary cities, why they don't want voter ID, and why they want the border open. That's what all the fuss is about. It's because Trump is getting close to ending the Democrat Party as we know it. Without illegals voting in their districts, they face extinction. Not only will they no longer be able to win elections, but this election fraud scheme was nothing short of treasonous. They sold us out to foreigners while pocketing our money. They covertly enslaved us and enriched themselves off our labor, while we struggle to stay afloat. This is a serious situation.

Guest: Brandon Weichert. Turmoil in Iran threatens China's energy security, as Beijing receives roughly 70-80% of Iranian oil. Weichert suggests Russia and China are using the crisis to test anti-Starlink technologies. Furthermore, the regime might import foreign terrorists to suppress domestic dissent, while the U.S. provides behind-the-scenes support to the movement.1307 TABRIZ

SHOW SCHEDULE1-13-251868 PUBLISHER'S ROW NYC Guests: Elizabeth Peek and John Batchelor. Batchelor and Peek discuss inflation holding firm at 2.7% in December. They evaluate falling gasoline prices and strong holiday retail performance as indicators of improving consumer sentiment. Peek also critiques a DOJ investigation into Jerome Powell, labeling it an "unforced error" that might inadvertently extend Powell's tenure. Guest: Elizabeth Peek. This segment addresses political dissent in Minnesota following a tragedy involving an ICE agent. Peek argues that liberal activists are nationalizing the incident to demonize law enforcement. She views this as partisan positioning for the midterms, intended as a weapon to be used against President Trump. Guests: Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Matter. Dempsey explains that the EU lacks a cohesive strategy for Irandespite a consensus on increasing sanctions. Regarding Ukraine, she highlights staggering divisions among European states as the U.S. withdraws military help. Dempsey notes a ceasefire remains unlikely because Russiacurrently has no interest in negotiations. Guests: Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Matter. The discussion focuses on Chancellor Friedrich Merz's efforts to address immigration to counter the populist AfD party. Dempsey explores the nuances of refugee integration into the German workforce. Finally, she reports European "horror" at potential U.S. moves to annex Greenland, which could threaten the survival of NATO. Guest: Joseph Sternberg. China faces a "sluggish zombie economy" characterized by a burst property bubble and anemic consumption. Sternberg warns of "Japanification," where growth remains stagnant for decades. Beijingstruggles with price deflation, further burdening a heavily indebted economy. Meaningful recovery requires political reforms Xi Jinping resists. Guest: Joseph Sternberg. President Trump is reportedly using an investigation into Fed Chairman Jerome Powell as a pretext to influence interest rate decisions. Sternberg notes that while central banks like the Bank of England strive for independence, they are increasingly politicized. Additionally, Western media outlets like the BBC initially faced criticism for slow coverage of Iranian massacres. Guest: Jonathan Schanzer. Intense protests in Iran, sparked by decades of mismanagement, have led to a violent crackdown by the regime. Schanzer highlights that these demonstrations are uniquely supported by President Trump's rhetoric. Reza Pahlavi has emerged as a potential figurehead for a transitional government or constitutional monarchy, as the population remains largely pro-Western. Guest: Jonathan Schanzer. Syria's new central government remains extremely fragile, with authority barely extending beyond Damascus as factions clash in Aleppo. Schanzer describes a "Sunni jihadist regime" facing retribution from sectarian minorities. Meanwhile, regional tensions escalate as Israel and Iran reportedly narrowly avoided direct conflict, prompting Russia to evacuate its embassy. Guest: Dr. Brenda Shaffer. Iran is a multi-ethnic state where Persians constitute less than 40% of the population. Shaffer explains that while current protests are Persian-led, the regime's survival often depends on the participation of ethnic minorities like Azerbaijanis, Kurds, and Baluch. These groups frequently engage in direct retribution against security forces. Guest: General Blaine Holt (retired). Holt discusses potential U.S. intervention to support Iranian protesters, emphasizing strikes on command nodes rather than ground troops. While the U.S. maintains air superiority, putting special operators on the ground carries high risk. The Iranian people face a critical window of days to succeed before facing stunning reprisals. Guest: Brandon Weichert. Iranian protesters face a brutal regime that may utilize a "Samson Option," firing all missiles at Israel if the government falls. Weichert notes that while the Israelis and CIA have covert assets on the ground, the protest movement lacks a cohesive leader. Proposals for restoring the Pahlavi dynasty are criticized as an impractical solution. Guest: Brandon Weichert. Turmoil in Iran threatens China's energy security, as Beijing receives roughly 70-80% of Iranian oil. Weichert suggests Russia and China are using the crisis to test anti-Starlink technologies. Furthermore, the regime might import foreign terrorists to suppress domestic dissent, while the U.S. provides behind-the-scenes support to the movement. Guest: Gregory Copley. Iran's collapse could dismantle the "International North-South Transport Corridor," a vital trade route for Russia and India. Copley argues that the Iranian public is increasingly secular, with the youth rejecting clerical authority. While the regime may fire remaining missiles in desperation, a post-clerical Irancould ignite Central Asian economic potential. Guest: Gregory Copley. Although the U.S. promises help, Copley warns that a ground invasion is physically difficult and historically unsuccessful. There are signs that Iranian police and some Revolutionary Guard units are refusing to fire on protesters. Ultimately, the Iranian people must take ownership of the revolution to ensure the legitimacy of any successor government. Guest: Gregory Copley. Following the arrest of Maduro, Venezuela is controlled by four competing "crime families." Copley notes the absence of a clear U.S. plan for citizens facing food and medical insecurity. The U.S.seeks to enforce an oil embargo against Cuba, which is currently suffering from infrastructure collapse and electric grid failures. Guest: Gregory Copley. Reza Pahlavi proposes a constitutional monarchy where the crown serves as a symbolic figurehead, similar to the British system. Copley highlights Pahlavi's unique name recognition and legitimacy as the former crown prince. However, air power alone cannot decisively change the situation on the ground, requiring covert support after the clerics collapse.

Patrick Bet-David, Tom Ellsworth, and Brandon Aceto are joined by Mark Moss as they break down Trump's proposed 10% cap on credit card interest rates, Elon Musk's Starlink actions amid Iran protests, a controversial 50% tax push on OnlyFans earnings, and the looming execution of Iranian protester Erfan Soltani.------

Today's Headlines: Six federal prosecutors in Minnesota resigned after the DOJ pushed them to investigate the widow of Renee Good — while still refusing to treat the ICE officer who killed Good as a civil rights case. The DOJ is now probing alleged ties between Good's wife and local ICE protest groups, a move prosecutors called a blatant inversion of justice. At the same time, Rep. Jamie Raskin is pressing DHS over reports that ICE is recruiting pardoned January 6 participants, asking how many now have guns, masks, and badges. That scrutiny comes as more than 50 House Democrats roll out articles of impeachment against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem for obstruction, civil rights violations, and alleged self-dealing. Trump escalated things in Detroit, announcing he'll cut off federal funding to sanctuary cities and states starting February 1 — targeting 11 states and D.C. labeled as sanctuary jurisdictions. Abroad, Iran's regime crackdown has reportedly killed more than 2,000 protesters. Trump says he's canceled talks with Tehran, urged protesters to “take over your institutions,” slapped new tariffs on countries doing business with Iran, and — as the regime jams Starlink — the White House has reportedly held quiet talks with exiled opposition figure Reza Pahlavi. In Epstein news, Bill and Hillary Clinton refused to testify before the House Oversight Committee about Jeffrey Epstein, instead sending an eight-page letter arguing the subpoenas are invalid and noting they already submitted sworn statements the committee accepted from others. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court heard arguments on state bans targeting transgender athletes, with signs the justices are unlikely to strike them down. And civil rights trailblazer Claudette Colvin, whose defiance on a Montgomery bus at 15 helped ignite the civil rights movement, has died at 86.

The Space Show Presents A Special Open Lines Discussion, Sunday, 1-11-26Quick summaryThis program focused on discussing space industry developments and future predictions for 2026, with participants exploring topics like advancements in AI, robotics, and space technology. They debated the influence of private sector leaders like Elon Musk and Eric Schmidt on space policy and innovation, while also examining educational requirements needed to support future space endeavors. The group discussed the potential for breakthroughs in propulsion and energy solutions, as well as the search for extraterrestrial life, though they agreed current technologies would not yield significant results by 2026. The conversation concluded with reflections on how space advocacy might evolve over the next decade, particularly as costs decrease and more private sector involvement emerges.SummaryOur program got underway by discussing Dr. Phil Metzger's list of 20-21 important developments for the space industry in 2026, with John Jossy presenting key items. The discussion highlighted significant developments such as declining launch costs, reusable rocket technology, satellite broadband constellations, and AI-driven applications of satellite data. Negative impacts were also discussed, including supply chain volatility for semiconductors and potential delays in mega constellations due to AI demand and export rules. The Wisdom Team also touched on upcoming programs, including a special edition of the space show and a new Tuesday program featuring a CEO from a European company.We discussed Elon Musk's vision for medical robots and AI, with Marshall expressing both optimism and discomfort about the rapid pace of technological advancement. They explored Musk's plans for Starlink satellites, including in-space maintenance and potential cost savings, though settlement on Mars and the Moon was not extensively discussed. The conversation covered broader topics including AI's impact on labor, universal basic income, and the role of education in a changing world, with John Jossy noting that the discussion was part of Peter Diamandis' Moonshot podcast series.I believe that a valuable part of our overall discussion looked at the influence of innovative leaders in the space sector, with Manuel expressing concerns about the dominance of a few individuals, while David and John Jossy highlighted the need for ethical regulations and oversight. They debated the challenges of supervising innovative leaders like Elon Musk and David Sachs, with John Jossy emphasizing Sachs's role in advising the administration on AI regulations. Marshall agreed with David's point about the difficulty of overseeing geniuses, suggesting that market forces often limit harmful innovations. The part of the program concluded with a discussion on the future of space, including the role of private sectors and state actors, and the potential for partnerships between governments and the private sector.The Space Show Wisdom Team discussed future space exploration and technology developments over the next 10 years. Ryan predicted increased automation and robotics in orbital operations, while Marshall envisioned multiple lunar bases and the construction of space cities for manufacturing and AI development. David noted the absence of discussion on breakthrough propulsion technologies and emphasized the need for innovations that could benefit humanity on Earth. John Hunt mentioned Jared Isaacman's interest in nuclear propulsion for NASA, and Marshall suggested that nuclear fusion could be developed and used for space exploration, though primarily for pushing exploratory satellites.Future space technology and innovation was a topic, focusing on the potential of fusion energy, space solar power, and reduced costs for launching payloads to low Earth orbit (LEO). Marshall highlighted the significance of Starship Block 3, which is expected to significantly lower the cost per kilogram to LEO, enabling more projects and innovations. John Jossy mentioned ongoing developments in wireless power transmission and space-based solar power for AI data centers. David raised questions about the dependency of space innovation on government policies, suggesting a needed potential relationship between public sector support and private sector progress. The group agreed that 2026 could mark a significant breakthrough in space technology, driven by advancements in Starship and reduced launch costs.W also pointed to the potential political influence on emerging technologies, particularly in sectors like transportation and communications, with Ryan noting the significant financial interests at play. Marshall highlighted the challenges of adapting government agencies to innovations like robo-taxis and robo-airplanes, predicting major shifts in how air traffic control and state regulations function. John Jossy emphasized AI as the primary driver of current innovation, citing its impact on industries and venture capital investments, while Marshall and David agreed that AI development is closely linked to changes in energy production and societal education. David stressed the need for a strong educational foundation to support advancements in space and AI, expressing concern about the United States' declining educational performance compared to countries like China and Japan.The Wisdom Team discussed educational challenges in the United States, with John Jossy emphasizing the need to address root causes of poor educational outcomes at local and state levels. Manuel shared examples from Peru and Europe, including a public sector initiative for high-performing students and apprenticeship programs, while John Hunt noted increased STEM requirements in Missouri schools. The discussion highlighted the importance of educating competent individuals to meet future innovation and technology demands, with no clear consensus on specific solutions.The group discussed educational changes over time, with David and Marshall sharing their experiences with calculus and practical applications. They explored the possibility of using AI to improve education systems. The conversation then shifted to the search for extraterrestrial life, with John Jossy stating that current technologies are not advanced enough to detect extraterrestrial life in 2026. The group also discussed the recent announcement by Eric Schmidt of Relativity Space regarding funding for a replacement for the Hubble Space Telescope and three additional telescopes, with a projected cost of at least half a billion dollars. Finally, David posed a question about the future of space advocacy over the next 5-10 years, but the group did not reach a consensus on this topic.Also discussed were future trends in space advocacy and conferences, with Marshall suggesting that in 10 years, conferences might focus more on financing and promoting personal space projects rather than academic presentations. Dr. Zubrin's potential future involvement in space advocacy was mentioned, noting that at 74, he could continue his Mars advocacy work for another 20-25 years. The conversation ended with David announcing upcoming guests for the show, including Guy Schumann from Luxembourg, and a discussion about foreign spaceports, with Mark Whittington preparing a program about international spaceport developments.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

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. TX Sen. Ted Cruz Joins the Show! Clay highlights encouraging data showing core inflation dropping to 2.6%, its lowest level since March 2021. The hosts explain why this trend signals progress toward the Federal Reserve’s 2% target and could lead to lower interest rates in 2026. They also discuss affordability challenges and debate proposals like capping credit card interest rates at 10%, with Senator Ted Cruz joining the show to warn about unintended consequences that could hurt low-income Americans by restricting access to credit. The hour concludes with a deep dive into Iran’s escalating protests against the Ayatollah’s regime, featuring an extended interview with Texas Senator Ted Cruz. Cruz calls the uprising a potential “Berlin Wall moment,” predicting the Islamic theocracy could collapse within weeks following its humiliating defeat in the recent 12-day war with Israel. He praises President Trump’s strong stance in support of Iranian freedom and outlines strategies ranging from cyber operations to limited kinetic strikes against regime forces, while stressing the importance of keeping the revolution authentically Iranian. Cruz also reveals that Elon Musk has activated Starlink over Iran to help protesters bypass government censorship, underscoring the role of technology in modern resistance movements. Buck's Crazy Credit Card Story From cultural flashpoints, the discussion moves to economic policy and affordability, spotlighting Trump’s proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10% for one year. Clay questions whether a president can legally impose such a cap, while Buck recalls predatory practices like shifting due dates and punitive APR hikes that previously triggered regulatory crackdowns. Senator Ted Cruz warns that such caps could backfire by restricting credit access for high-risk borrowers, pushing them toward payday lenders or worse. Listener calls enrich the debate: one caller warns that temporary caps could encourage larger balances only to reset at 20% later, echoing pitfalls of adjustable-rate mortgages; another shares a teachable moment with her grandson about compound interest and minimum payments, underscoring the need for financial literacy in schools. Clay contextualizes Trump’s move as part of a broader populist strategy to address affordability concerns heading into the 2026 midterms, alongside proposals to curb institutional home purchases. Financial Literacy Isn't Taught at School The hour opens with a candid discussion on financial literacy and mortgage realities, as Clay explains how most homeowners misunderstand amortization tables. For the first decade of a 30-year mortgage, nearly all payments go toward interest rather than principal, leaving many Americans unaware of how little equity they build early on. The hosts argue that schools fail to teach essential financial skills—such as understanding compound interest, credit card debt, and mortgage structures—leaving consumers vulnerable to predatory practices. This ties into their broader critique of systemic financial inequities and the need for transparency in lending. The conversation then shifts to Trump’s economic agenda, highlighted by his speech at the Detroit Economic Club. Clay and Buck analyze Trump’s populist proposals, including a one-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10% and restrictions on institutional investors buying single-family homes. They debate the feasibility and impact of these measures, noting that while Trump’s plan may face legal hurdles, it resonates politically by addressing affordability concerns. Buck shares personal anecdotes about credit card companies’ predatory tactics, reinforcing why Trump’s stance on consumer protection is striking a chord with voters. The hosts also explore how housing shortages are exacerbated by illegal immigration and corporate ownership of residential properties, driving up prices and squeezing middle-class families. SCOTUS Trans Athlete Arguments From economics, the hour pivots to a landmark Supreme Court case on transgender athletes in women’s sports, featuring an interview with Jennifer Sey, founder of XX-XY Athletics and former Levi’s executive. Sey, who spoke at a rally on the steps of the Supreme Court alongside Riley Gaines, calls the case a fight for reality and fairness, arguing that Title IX was designed to protect female athletes based on biological sex—not gender identity. She warns that allowing males to compete in women’s sports undermines decades of progress and discourages girls from participating. Sey predicts that even if the Court rules 6–3 in favor of states like West Virginia and Idaho, progressive states will double down on policies permitting biological males in female sports, framing the issue as a cultural battle that must be fought beyond the courtroom. Clay and Buck echo her concerns, blasting terms like “cisgender” and “trans girls” as linguistic fictions that normalize gender ideology at the expense of women’s rights.

PREVIEW FOR LATER TODAY Guest: Brandon Weichert. Weichert analyzes how Iranian turmoil affects Shaheddrone production, noting that Russia has already moved toward domestic manufacturing. He suggests that the disruption of Starlink in Iran is not accidental but reflects Russia and China testing anti-Starlink weapon systems, using the Iranian conflict as a strategic testing ground.

PREVIEW FOR LATER TODAY Guest: Jonathan Schanzer. Schanzer compares the current unrest in Iran to the tectonic shift of the Soviet Union's collapse. He questions the lack of media coverage despite evidence of massacres and body bags, attributing the relative dearth of images to the regime's active jamming of Starlink and the internet across the region.1900 RUSSIANS IN TABRIZ

Welcome to Episode 1407 of the **Jeep Talk Show**—we're now in our **16th year** delivering unfiltered Jeep talk, trail tips, mod advice, and real community vibes! In this episode, Tony dives into the **shocking news** that's rocking the Jeep world right now: **Stellantis has officially discontinued the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) 4xe models** in North America starting with the 2026 model year. The Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe have vanished from Jeep's build configurator—no press release, no fanfare, just quietly pulled. We break down why this happened: ongoing recalls (battery fires, power issues, stop-sales), shifting demand with lower gas prices, the end of big EV incentives, and why simpler gas or mild-hybrid setups might make more sense for real off-roaders. Current 4xe owners—don't panic; get your recalls handled, and Jeep should keep supporting parts for years. Is this a smart pivot away from problematic tech, or a step back from "green"? We discuss the pros/cons and what it means for the future of electrified Jeeps. We also tackle the classic budget mod question: **Mud-Terrain (MT) tires first, or lockers?** Tires are the foundation—they touch the ground and give instant gains in mud, loose dirt, rocks, and looks (that aggressive stance!). Lockers shine in extreme rock crawling where wheels lift off, but on a budget, many Jeepers swear by starting with MTs for better "two-tire grip" across axles vs. four potentially spinning. We share real thoughts on why MTs often win for everyday wheeling, plus when lockers become essential. What's your pick? Drop it in the comments! Tony rants (again) about **Wrangler 392 pricing**—why are we still seeing these V8 beasts priced way too high (even after recent drops like the new Moab 392 specials coming in ~$20k cheaper than prior Rubicons)? With gas prices down and love for that Hemi torque/sound, Jeep could move way more units by making it more accessible—closer to a loaded 3.6 Rubicon premium. Come on, Jeep—keep the go-anywhere spirit alive without luxury pricing! Communications corner: Is **ham radio for emergency use** obsolete with GMRS, cell phones, and Starlink? We explore why ham still rules as a resilient backup (no grid/internet needed, global reach in disasters like hurricanes or EMP scenarios). GMRS is easier for trail chats, but build a layered plan—test your gear, know repeater backups, and stay ready. 73 to the hams out there! Bonus: Tony announces his **new interview show** (The Tony Muckleroy Show on YouTube & Spotify)—wide-ranging convos on anything interesting, starting with a personal one on paranormal experiences with his daughter. Check it out for ghosts, stories, or random deep dives! Thanks for watching/listening, Jeep family! Smash that **LIKE**, **SUBSCRIBE**, and hit the bell for more.

It's Tuesday, January 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Venezuelan authorities release 800 pastors and others from prison Over 800 pastors and other so-called political prisoners were released from Venezuelan jails over the weekend.  Psalm 68:1-3 declares, “Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered. Let those also who hate Him flee before Him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away. As wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God. Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.” 3 pastors released from Nicaraguan prisons And, also, at least three pastors have been released from Nicaraguan prisons. That includes Pastor Rudy Palacios Vargas, the founder of La Roca de Nicaragua Church Association, his sister, two brothers-in-law, a member of the church worship team and a family friend. They were part of a block of 20 political prisoners released over the weekend, reports Christian Solidarity Worldwide. Noteworthy however was this: Another pastor, serving 23 years on false charges, was not among those released. Efrén Antonio Vílchez López was arrested when he condemned the government's treatment of protesters in 2018. 540 protestors killed by Iranian authorities The body count is ratcheting up in the anti-government protests continuing across Iran. As of Monday, at least 540 people have died, according to the Human Rights Activists News Agency.  The protests have hit 585 locations across the country in 186 cities located in 31 provinces. These casualties rival the Black Friday revolution of 1978 in Iran where at least 500 died in the turmoil. Iranian government blocks satellite signals into country Today marks the fourth day of government shutdown of the internet across Iran — including a military grade level block of Elon Musk's Starlink system. The SpaceX organization has received authorization to double the number of Starlink satellites in orbit to 15,000. Already, Starlink commands 66% of active satellites orbiting Earth. Bible sales up in United Kingdom This in from the United Kingdom. Premier Christian News announced that Bible sales have doubled since 2019, with a 28% surge in just the last year.  Sam Richardson, CEO of the Christian publisher SPCK Group, explained that “[The Bible sales] are evidence of a significant cultural shift regarding matters of faith and religion in this country.” Isaiah 40:8 says, “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.” Trump wants Greenland President Donald Trump is serious about including Greenland under American holdings. He announced that “We are going to do something on Greenland, whether they like it or not. I would like to make a deal.  … If we don't do it the easy way, we're going to do it the hard way." The Danish prime minister, Mette Frederickson, responded over the weekend. He said this would mean the collapse of NATO.  Trump vs. Fed Chair Jerome Powell The battle between the Trump administration and the Federal Reserve Board has heated up.   The Trump Justice Department has issued grand jury summons and threatened Chairman Jerome Powell with a criminal indictment relating to the scope of the Fed's ongoing renovation project.   Mr. Powell published a video over the weekend on the matter: In his words, “This [legal proceeding] is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.” POWELL: “This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings. It is not about Congress's oversight role. The Fed through testimony and other public disclosures made every effort to keep Congress informed about the renovation project. Those are pretexts. The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public.” Supreme Court examines transgender issue The U.S. Supreme Court is hearing arguments today on whether states should be able to ban men, pretending to be women, from participating in female sports. The Idaho and West Virginia laws under scrutiny are concerned with regulating public school sports — not private school sports. The transgender lobby wants to apply Title IX to the matter.  Almost double Gen Zers converted to Christ vs. Millennials And finally, some good news on the Gen Z generation from Pew Research,  but only moderately so.   Pew Research has some recent numbers, comparing Gen Z with the Millennial group 10 years ago. Three percent of Millennials converted to Christianity and 5% of Gen Z'ers say the same thing. Plus, 31% of Millennials raised in the Christian faith left the faith. And 26% of Gen Z'ers raised in the Christian faith have left the faith. In addition, 42% of Millennials remain Christian while 41% of Gen Z'ers remain Christians. All that to say -- the bloodletting in the generational faith retrograde continues, but there has been a slight correction for the youngest adult population.

1. Current Situation in Iran Over one million Iranians are protesting against the regime in major cities. The Iranian leadership has shut down the internet, phones, and media to suppress information and maintain control. Protesters are risking their lives; acts of defiance include burning hijabs and removing religious coverings in public. 2. Historical Context References to the 1979 Islamic Revolution and the U.S. hostage crisis (444 days). Comparison of Jimmy Carter’s weak foreign policy to Barack Obama and Joe Biden, arguing that weakness emboldens adversaries. Contrast with Ronald Reagan’s strong stance, which led to the release of hostages and eventual Soviet collapse. 3. Iran’s Role in Global Terrorism Iran funds over 90% of Hamas and Hezbollah budgets. Responsible for IED attacks and the deaths of 593+ American service members in Iraq and Afghanistan. Iran manufactures drones used by Russia in Ukraine. Allegations that Iran plotted to assassinate Donald Trump. 4. U.S. Foreign Policy and Leadership Strong emphasis on “Peace through Strength” as advocated by Reagan and Trump. Trump’s recent actions (e.g., military strikes, bunker-buster bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities) portrayed as decisive. Trump’s public message: “Iran is looking at freedom… USA stands ready to help.” 5. Why Regime Change Matters The fall of Iran’s regime would be transformational for Middle East stability and U.S. security. Advocates for regime change without boots on the ground, using diplomatic, economic, and informational support. Compares potential Iranian revolution to the fall of the Berlin Wall and collapse of the Soviet Union. 6. Role of Media and Messaging Iranian state TV is allegedly broadcasting Tucker Carlson interviews in Persian as propaganda. Criticism of voices opposing U.S. involvement or promoting isolationism. Emphasis on using platforms like podcasts and Starlink internet access to reach Iranians and encourage freedom. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

STARLINK: FUNDING THE FUTURE Colleague Eric Berger. To finance the immense cost of Mars colonization, SpaceX developed Starlink, a constellation intended to comprise 12,000 satellites for global internet coverage. Bergerexplains that while the concept of low Earth orbit internet existed, SpaceX was the first to make it practical by mass-producing satellites at an unprecedented rate. This revenue stream is vital for the Starship program. Berger highlights how SpaceX has outpaced sovereign nations and corporate rivals like Amazon's Kuiper, which are years behind. The segment emphasizes the relentless work culture required to maintain this lead, often at the expense of employees' personal lives. NUMBER 61917 MASTER MIND OF MARS

Protests in Iran have turned deadly, with hundreds feared shot and killed. The government has shut all communications with the outside world, making it difficult to get accurate information from the ground. But a few have been able to get through, using Starlink, a satellite internet network, including one doctor living in New York. Also, Malaysia and Indonesia have blocked Grok, the AI chatbot feature on the social media platform X, citing concerns that the chatbot is being used to produce sexually explicit images. And, an inside look at the Venezuelan capital as uncertainty over the country's future continues. Plus, we take a listen to a single from Dhruv's debut album, a singer with roots in India and an upbringing in Singapore. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Iran says it's "under control". Rights groups say hundreds are dead and thousands arrested. And Trump's weighing what comes next.
