The global humanitarian protection system is at a critical juncture. It is under major strain as record numbers of people have been forced out of their homes by a complex array of factors and protracted crises. Yet at the same time, a system created in the wake of World War II no longer meets today's challenges and is increasingly coming under political pressures, with some countries chafing at protection obligations. In this episode of the World of Migration podcast, one of the leading voices in the humanitarian protection world, Vincent Cochetel, discusses the future of refugee protection and the evolution of the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) with Meghan Benton, MPI's director of global programs.

When life gets hard, we turn to our female friends. Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended Or Ended (Meridian Editions, 2025) Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women ranging in age from 20-80, Barash reveals an emerging trend - estrangement among female friends. Estranged is an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating murky waters of suboptimal friendships. The book sheds light on unspoken pain of estrangement - both for the "estranger" who walks away and the "estrangee" who is left behind. Amid candid confessions of betrayal and grief, Barash challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Susan Shapiro Barash has written more than a dozen nonfiction books including Tripping the Prom Queen, Toxic Friends and You're Grounded Forever, but First Let's Go Shopping. For more than 20 years she taught gender studies and Marymount Manhattan College and has guest taught creative nonfiction at the Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College.

Student nurses and midwives say they're taking on the same workloads as qualified staff in order to fill gaps in the sector, and they are doing it all for free. It comes as nurses, midwives and other healthcare staff around the country prepare to take strike action over what they say is a failure by Health NZ to address their staffing concerns. Australia has just introduced a payment for eligible students doing work placements and they say a similar system should be introduced here. Evie Richardson reports.

Leila Rahimi and Marshall Harris previewed the Cubs-Cardinals game Thursday afternoon, when Chicago left-hander Shota Imanaga is set to return to the mound after being sidelined by weeks with a hamstring injury.

This Day in Legal History: United States v. VirginiaOn this day in legal history, June 26, 1996, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark decision in United States v. Virginia, striking down the Virginia Military Institute's (VMI) male-only admissions policy. The 7–1 ruling held that the exclusion of women violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Writing for the majority, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg emphasized that gender-based government action must demonstrate an “exceedingly persuasive justification” to be constitutional.VMI had long argued that its adversative, military-style education would be compromised by the inclusion of women. In response to the lawsuit, Virginia created a separate program for women at Mary Baldwin College, which the Court found to be inherently unequal. The Court concluded that Virginia failed to show that its gender-based admissions policy was substantially related to an important governmental objective.Justice Ginsburg's opinion stressed that generalizations about gender roles cannot justify the denial of opportunity. The ruling did not require VMI to change its core program but made clear that women must be given equal access to it. This decision marked a significant moment in the legal evolution of gender equality and helped to dismantle one of the most visible public institutions that had resisted coeducation.Justice Scalia dissented, arguing that the decision imposed a rigid standard of gender equality that went beyond the Constitution's text and history. Nevertheless, the ruling reflected the Court's growing skepticism of laws that enforce traditional gender roles. United States v. Virginia remains one of the most cited gender discrimination cases and is considered a hallmark of Ginsburg's judicial legacy.A federal judge has extended a block on the Trump administration's attempt to dismantle Job Corps, a longstanding job training program for low-income youth. U.S. District Judge Andrew Carter ruled that the Department of Labor's plan to abruptly end the program without congressional approval likely violates federal law. The decision came in response to a lawsuit filed by the National Job Corps Association and several of its contractors.Job Corps, established in 1964, provides educational and vocational training for disadvantaged individuals aged 16 to 24. It currently serves about 25,000 participants at 120 centers nationwide, with an annual budget of $1.7 billion. The administration argued the program was inefficient, citing low graduation rates, poor job placement, and issues with violence and security at centers.However, plaintiffs maintain that only Congress can terminate a federally funded program and that the Labor Department failed to follow statutory procedures for closing individual centers. Judge Carter agreed, stating that once Congress mandates and funds a program, the executive branch cannot unilaterally terminate it.US judge extends block on Trump's bid to eliminate Job Corps program | ReutersA federal judge in San Francisco ruled in favor of Meta Platforms, dismissing a copyright lawsuit brought by authors who accused the company of using their books without permission to train its AI system, Llama. U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria found the authors failed to show sufficient evidence that Meta's AI training harmed the market for their work—an essential element in proving copyright infringement under U.S. law.While Chhabria emphasized that unauthorized use of copyrighted works for AI training could be illegal in many scenarios, he clarified that his ruling was limited to the plaintiffs' failure to present the right arguments or evidence. This position diverges from another recent ruling in which Judge William Alsup found that Anthropic's AI use of copyrighted content qualified as fair use.The authors' legal team criticized the decision, calling Meta's actions a form of “historically unprecedented pirating,” while Meta praised the outcome and defended fair use as essential for developing transformative AI technologies.This case is part of a broader legal wave in which creators are challenging companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Anthropic over AI systems trained on copyrighted materials. At the heart of the dispute is whether using such content without payment or permission to create AI-generated works constitutes fair use or undermines creative incentives.Meta fends off authors' US copyright lawsuit over AI | ReutersAnd in a piece I wrote for Forbes yesterday, I note the IRS managed an objectively successful 2025 filing season—processing nearly 138 million returns, most of them electronically—but also that success masks deeper structural weaknesses. While headline numbers are strong, the IRS suspended over 13 million returns, largely due to fraud checks or errors, delaying refunds and spotlighting operational vulnerabilities. One of the most glaring issues is the average 20-month wait time for identity theft victims to resolve their cases, many of whom are low-income taxpayers urgently awaiting those refunds.Staffing levels are at crisis lows: the IRS workforce shrank by 26% in the first half of 2025, casting doubt on its ability to maintain performance as the temporary funding from the Inflation Reduction Act winds down. Looking ahead, the 2026 expiration of key provisions from the 2017 tax law will require major administrative overhauls—updates to forms, guidance, and withholding tables—that the current IRS may be too under-resourced to handle.The agency has promising plans, including digitization of paper returns and case system integration, but even the best-designed systems require trained staff to implement and maintain them. Moreover, modernization must be inclusive: 17% of Americans still lack internet access, and an effective IRS must serve them too. Ultimately, tax administration is not just a technical task—it's a distributive justice issue, and how we fund and staff it determines who bears the burden when the system falters.What The IRS' 2025 Filing Season Tells Us About The Future Of Taxes This is a public episode.

Do you feel exhausted? Stressed? Strained? Like everything is a battle and you are wildly swinging swords trying to slay all the dragons? Yeah, striving and struggling exists to wear you out, steal your energy, and tank your vitality – all in the name of productivity, meeting goals, and doing what you "should..." But what if you just... STOPPED STRIVING? What if you are not some unending healing project that requires increasing complexity and systems and strategy? What if you're more like a really fun houseplant that needs simple things like good food, sleep, sunlight, and cuddling? Complexity and creating unsolvable problems mind's way of keeping itself activated, busy, and protected. If you are always moving, you don't have to actually slow down and feel your feelings. Without solid foundations, the castle you're building will crumble. No matter how much plant medicine you guzzle or spiritual self-help books you read. The good news is, going back to basics is simple.Let go of striving and let it be easy. Trust yourself, trust the Universe, and let your energy guide the way!WORK WITH SINCLAIRNEST Group Integration Membership - https://sinclairfleetwood.com/nest1:1 Private Coaching - https://sinclairfleetwood.com/psychedelic-integrationSubscribe to The Visionary Within weekly newsletter - https://mystical-heart-collective.kit.com/5623fed941FREE Ultimate Guide to Healing with Psychedelics: https://mystical-heart-collective.kit.com/ultimate-guideRetreats: https://sinclairfleetwood.com/events

Episode 164Fate, as in Romeo and Juliet, plays a large part in ‘The Merchant of Venice', as do deep seated grudges, but these are more societal than familial. We are still in Italy, but no longer in close knit Verona, but mercantile and outward looking Venice. As Shakespeare wrote this play London was becoming orientated around increasing global trade and English trading ships were regularly making their way to Venice as a major trading hub, so perhaps it is no surprise that Venice, with its eyes on commerce and profit, was a suitably exotic setting for this tale of greed, love and a clash of cultures.

https://chriscillizza.substack.com/p/tim-walz-has-a-bad-case-of-main-character Chris Cilizza writes: Tim Walz was a dud as vice presidential pick. He added zero to the ticket. In his one big moment — the vice presidential debate with JD Vance — he got beat. Badly. And looked hopelessly out of his depth. None of this is to say that if Kamala Harris had picked someone other than Walz she would be president right now. History tells us that VP picks almost never make any real difference. And I think that's true this time too. Had Harris picked, say, Josh Shapiro, she still would have lost. To my mind then, Walz was a sort of historical blip. Plucked from relative obscurity by Harris and then, after losing, sent back to that relative obscurity. Which isn't nothing! Being a governor of a state is a big deal! Being the VP nominee is a huge deal! But, in politics, water usually finds its level. And Walz's level was not — and is not — national politics. This is obvious to anyone who has spent any amount of time covering or watching politics. It is not obvious, however, to Tim Walz. Since the election loss, Walz has slowly but surely tried to fashion a narrative that he was under-utilized during the campaign. And that had he been properly deployed a) he would have shined and b) Harris might have won. According to Google AI: Main Character Syndrome (MCS) is a colloquial term used to describe a person's tendency to see themselves as the central figure in their own life story, often with an inflated sense of self-importance. Characteristics: Exaggerated sense of significance Belief that their experiences are more important than others Self-centeredness and lack of empathy Need for attention and validation Drama queen tendencies Difficulty accepting criticism Viewing others as supporting characters in their story MCS can have negative impacts on relationships, work, and overall well-being. It can lead to: Strained relationships due to self-centeredness, Difficulty collaborating with others, Overconfidence and poor decision-making, and Increased anxiety and depression. If you suspect you have MCS, it's important to: Reflect on your behavior and identify areas where you can improve. Develop empathy and consider the perspectives of others. Set realistic expectations about your importance. Seek professional help if needed to address underlying psychological issues.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently released a set of documents titled the Epstein Files: Phase One, which were expected to shed new light on the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's extensive network and illicit activities. However, the heavily redacted documents primarily contained information already available to the public, leading to significant criticism.Following the document release, Bondi sent a stern letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing the FBI's New York field office of withholding thousands of pages of additional records related to the Epstein investigation. She stated that despite assurances that all Epstein-related files had been provided, she quickly learned of the existence of more material.Bondi demanded the release of all remaining records—documents, audio, and video—by 8 a.m. on February 28th. Additionally, she announced an internal investigation into the handling of these files and instructed Patel to propose personnel action within two weeks.The document release quickly turned into a social media firestorm. Several influencers, including Libs of TikTok owner Chaya Raichik, Mike Cernovich, Jessica Reed Kraus of House Inhabit, and Chad Prather, were photographed at the White House holding binders labeled Epstein Files Phase One.This sparked outrage, with many questioning why these influencers had early access to the files while they were not made publicly available online. Others, particularly those who have long followed the Epstein case, downplayed the release, arguing that these files contained little new information.The controversy extended beyond social media, as members of Congress expressed frustration over the handling of the files. The House Judiciary Committee mocked the situation by posting a fake link to the Epstein files—only to rickroll their audience. Meanwhile, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, who is involved in declassifying public secrets, stated that she had not been provided access to the documents before their release, raising concerns about poor coordination within the Justice Department.The release of Phase One has left more questions than answers. While Bondi insists that additional documents exist and must be made public, the disorganized rollout has fueled skepticism. Some remain hopeful that new, previously unknown details about Epstein's network will eventually surface. For now, the public is left with confusing and frustrating news—but potentially more revelations on the horizon.Chapters* 00:00:00 - Introduction* 00:03:00 - Stephen A.

Episode Summary: In this episode, we delve into the concept of counterdependence—a form of hyper-independence often rooted in trauma or learned behaviors. We explore how counterdependence differs from healthy autonomy, the psychological roots of this defense mechanism, and how it impacts personal and professional relationships. The discussion highlights signs of counterdependence, such as reluctance to ask for help, discomfort with emotional closeness, and overcompensation through self-reliance. We also discuss practical steps toward healing and finding balance, including therapy modalities like Internal Family Systems, emotional granularity, and reparenting. Plus, we touch on the cultural context of counterdependence, particularly in individualistic societies like the U.S., and how it contrasts with interdependence found in collectivist cultures. Key Topics Covered: What Is Counterdependence? Defined as avoiding reliance on others as a defense mechanism against vulnerability. The spectrum of connection: counterdependence vs. codependence, with healthy autonomy in the middle. Signs of Counterdependence: Reluctance to ask for help. Mistrust of others and fear of dependency. Discomfort with emotional closeness. Overcompensation through self-reliance. Healthy Autonomy vs. Counterdependence: Healthy autonomy embraces interdependence and vulnerability while maintaining self-reliance. Counterdependence is driven by fear and avoidance, often leading to superficial relationships. Psychological Roots and Cultural Influences: Childhood experiences, attachment theory, and maladaptive coping strategies. How individualistic societies glorify independence. Consequences of Counterdependence: Increased loneliness, stress, and difficulty forming deep emotional connections. Strained or superficial relationships and potential burnout. Practical Steps Toward Healing: Build awareness of counterdependence tendencies. Seek therapy (e.g., Internal Family Systems, EMDR). Practice emotional granularity and reparenting. Start small: ask for help with minor tasks and open up to trusted individuals. Cultivate emotional intimacy in relationships and challenge the need for control. Resources Mentioned: Brené Brown's Work on Vulnerability and Connection Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy Attachment Theory by John Bowlby Listener Takeaways: Awareness is the first step to overcoming counterdependence. Vulnerability, though uncomfortable, is a strength that fosters deeper relationships. Balance between independence and connection is key to personal and professional well-being.

Rwanda has endured a series of destabilizing moments that have shaped its complex history and relations with neighboring countries. Colonial rule set the stage for ethnic divisions that worsened under post-colonial governments, leading to the horrific 1994 Rwandan genocide. Following the genocide, Rwanda's rapid reconstruction transformed it into an economic success story. However, longstanding tensions with its neighbors, fueled by historical grievances and security concerns, continue to disrupt and challenge this image and drive instability and insecurity in the Great Lakes. Today, Rwanda's relations with neighboring countries remain fraught. Friction has led to periodic border closures with Uganda and Burundi, while Rwanda's military presence in eastern DRC has contributed to conflict escalation. Questions persist about how Rwanda and its neighbors can move beyond historical grievances and geopolitical struggles to foster lasting peace in the region.  In this episode, Mvemba is joined by retired General James Kabarebe, Rwanda's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs in charge of Regional Cooperation. General Kabarebe offers an inside perspective on the security challenges Rwanda faces with its neighbors. He addresses Rwanda's diplomatic and strategic stance, shedding light on the complexities of regional cooperation, and explores ways to navigate the tensions affecting Rwanda and its neighbors.  This event is made possible by the generous support of Open Society Foundations.
