The United Nations on Tuesday warned of a sharp escalation in violence in South Sudan, driven by political deadlock among the signatories to the country's fragile peace deal, as clashes, displacement and humanitarian access restrictions worsen. Briefing the UN Security Council, UN peacekeeping chief Jean-Pierre Lacroix said rising tensions linked to stalled implementation of the 2018 Revitalised Peace Agreement had led to armed confrontations across several regions, particularly in Jonglei state. He said fighting between government and opposition forces had intensified in recent weeks, with reports of aerial bombardments, inflammatory rhetoric and mass displacement. More than 280,000 people have been displaced by violence in Jonglei alone, according to government figures, he added. Lacroix expressed concern over reports that government forces had ordered the temporary relocation of civilians, as well as UN and humanitarian personnel, from parts of Jonglei in late January ahead of a planned military operation, although authorities later denied issuing such instructions. He also warned that unilateral initiatives to amend the 2018 peace agreement, including proposals to delay constitution-making until after elections, risk undermining the accord's primacy. The main opposition group, the SPLM/A-IO, has rejected the initiatives, citing ongoing legal proceedings involving First Vice President Riek Machar and demanding his release before engaging in political dialogue. South Sudan remains one of the most dangerous countries for aid workers, Lacroix said, noting that 350 attacks on humanitarian staff and facilities were recorded in 2025, up from 255 the previous year. Access constraints persist, particularly in opposition-held areas, as the country battles its worst cholera outbreak, with more than 98,000 cases reported since September 2024. He said violence in parts of Jonglei had forced the closure of nutrition sites and health facilities, cutting off care for thousands of children and pregnant women, while recent attacks and looting of humanitarian barges in Upper Nile state had further shrunk humanitarian space. Lacroix also warned that cost-cutting measures at the UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) were limiting its ability to protect civilians, with patrols reduced by up to 70 percent in some areas and dozens of human rights monitoring missions cancelled. Despite these constraints, he said UNMISS continued to play a critical deterrent role, citing the mission's presence in Akobo, Jonglei, as helping prevent possible aerial bombardments amid escalating fighting. Lacroix urged South Sudan's leaders to step back from renewed conflict, return to inclusive dialogue and uphold the peace agreement, warning that elections held without consensus among all parties would lack credibility. “Without the participation of all those who have placed their hopes into this peace process, any election will not be credible and therefore not worthy of our support,” he told the council.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

Kouri Richins Trial Cited in DHS Warning — Domestic Poisonings Are Surging

With Kouri Richins' aggravated murder trial set to begin February 23 in Park City, Utah, the Department of Homeland Security has issued an intelligence bulletin to law enforcement identifying her case as part of a growing national trend. The January 2026 bulletin warned that domestic partners are increasingly turning to chemical and biological toxins to kill, documenting seventeen cases since 2014 with at least eleven deaths. The substances most commonly used — antifreeze, eye drops, fentanyl, cyanide, and thallium — are chosen specifically because they mimic natural illness, creating significant challenges for detection and prosecution.Richins is charged with spiking her husband Eric's cocktail with a fatal dose of illicit fentanyl on March 3, 2022, with prosecutors alleging a prior failed attempt on Valentine's Day. Eric was found with approximately five times the lethal dose in his blood. The alleged motive centers on financial pressure — her realty company reportedly owed lenders at least $1.8 million while his estate was worth roughly $5 million. She has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven otherwise.But the Richins case also highlights the systemic vulnerabilities that make poisoning an increasingly attractive method. Eric died at home and his death was initially treated as an overdose, not a homicide. America's autopsy rate has collapsed to 8.5%, with natural-looking deaths autopsied just 4.3% of the time. Research shows death certificates are wrong roughly a third of the time. Tony walks through three convicted cases — James Craig, Lana Clayton, and Stacey Castor — where the killer nearly escaped detection entirely, and connects them to the Richins trial and the federal warning that says this problem is getting worse.#KouriRichins #DHSPoisoningBulletin #DomesticPoisoning #TrueCrimeToday #JamesCraig #EricRichins #LanaClayton #StaceyCastor #AutopsyRate #FentanylPoisoningJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

John Rubino, [Substack https://rubino.substack.com/ ], joins us for another wide-ranging and nuanced discussion around fundamental drivers, macro catalysts, and technical momentum factors that are leading to volatility in precious metals like silver, gold, and platinum, and the related PM stocks.  We also review initiatives from industry and governments to secure supplies of domestic critical minerals like copper, nickel, zinc, uranium, and rare earths.   We start off reviewing the run in silver, gold, and platinum to new all-time highs just in January, followed by a sharp reversal lower the last day of the month and over the handful of trading sessions to kick off February.    John touches upon the series of potential catalysts that led to the swift correction in metals process from investors “with large profits that needed to be protected,” the Trump appointment of Kevin Warsh to the Fed, both US and Chinese commodities exchanges raising margin requirements to trade the metals, and corrective trends pressuring a number of equity market sectors and the crypto space lower in sympathy. He contrasts those headwinds with the longer-term positive tailwind catalysts for the precious metals; arising from central bank buying of gold, geopolitical uncertainties, concerns about the growing national debt, and the desire to cut interest rates and run the economy hot to try and grow the US out of the economic challenges it faces, which will end up being even more inflationary.   John reviews the investing strategies he is utilizing in his own portfolio of resource stocks; where he is dollar cost averaging into quality producers and developers across a range of key metals stocks using low-ball bids to accumulate positions on pricing pullbacks.   When discussing the growing demand for critical minerals globally for defense and industry, John highlights the recent US initiative to build a strategic minerals stockpile dubbed “Project Vault.”  The discussion is also taking place about the government setting pricing floors in many critical minerals to encourage development of domestic mineral deposits or with trading partners, getting around the artificially low prices set by China.  We also discuss the large capex spends from tech and AI companies and how commodity intensive that physical buildout will be in combination with the energy needs.    We discuss merger & acquisitions from precious metals companies into copper and critical minerals deposits may be the right kind of diversification taking advantage of the larger macro themes in the commodities sector.   John stresses the importance of investors continuing to get educated on the specific uses and demand factors in some of the more niche' critical minerals and energy metals, to better understand the individual companies they are investing in.   Click here to follow John's analysis and articles over at Substack   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Desert Pools By Sara Teasdale (1884 - 1933) I love too much; I am a river Surging with spring that seeks the sea,I am too generous a giver, Love will not stoop to drink of me.His feet will turn to desert places Shadowless, reft of rain and dew,Where stars stare down with sharpened faces From heavens pitilessly blue.And there at midnight sick with faring He will stoop down in his desireTo slake the thirst grown past all bearing In stagnant water keen as fire.Source: Poets.org.

China's Surging BRI Investments - with Christoph Nedopil-Wang

In today's episode, we take a deep dive into the latest stats on China's surging investments in the Belt-and-Road Initiative countries. Energy investment is up, but we learn that this was both the 'greenest and dirtiest' year for BRI investments ever. Even as China's oil demand stagnates, China's SOEs and construction companies are doing brisk business investing in oil and gas, even as CATL and Jinko Solar find deals and opportunities in Latin America and Africa. Our guest, Christoph Nedopil-Wang, is the director of the Griffith Asia Institute and Professor of Economics. Christoph engages in research related to sustainable finance and business in Asia and the Pacific, and he is particularly interested in the role of China in Asia's sustainable development with extensive engagement in green finance, green energy transition, green metals, climate smart state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).  He has numerous publications related to the topic of China's overseas finance and green finance in general, and in particular he is the lead author of the China Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) Investment Report 2025, published by the Griffith Asia Institute in early January 2026, in collaboration with the Green Finance & Development Center (GFDC) of the Fanhai International School of Finance (FISF), in Fudan, China. [Editorial note: a young family member can occasionally be heard in the background.] Questions we address are: Is surging investment a surprise? And why is this happening just as China's domestic economy slows? Why is oil and gas investment surging when domestic demand is so soft? Is Chinese investment in minerals and minerals processing mainly a "scramble for resources" or is it a development opportunity for the recipient countries? Is Africa's growth of 300% a signficant trend change that could continue?  Deal size is up. What ever happened to "small is beautiful"?

With electricity prices on the rise, the future of our power grid is attracting a lot more attention. Surging demand is at the center of the story, but the power sector is also grappling with supply chain bottlenecks and aging infrastructure – all while trying to balance capacity growth with reducing emissions. This isn't just a technical challenge. Energy affordability and equity are reshaping debates about energy policy, permitting reform, and climate goals.  So, what's really behind rising prices? What are the best ways to balance the need to build capacity with the interests of communities? What role can research play when it comes to steering energy policy? And what lessons can Texas teach us about all of these concerns? Today on the show, Jason Bordoff speaks with Michael Webber about the costs of energy; the challenges of permitting reform; and the need to build more energy faster. Michael Webber is a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. He's the author of multiple books on energy, including Power Trip and Thirst for Power, both of which were adapted into award-winning PBS documentary series. In addition to his academic post, Michael previously served as CTO of the venture fund Energy Impact Partners, and as chief science and technology officer at ENGIE.

Artificial intelligence technologies run on powerful computers that require vast amounts of energy, water, and critical minerals. As AI use grows, so does its environmental footprint. Yet there is little consensus on how to assess and address the technology's toll on the climate before irreparable damage is done. How can we understand the impact AI data centers have on communities and the environment? How can we ensure that communities are able to use empirical data about those impacts to fight back? About 'Understanding AI'In the fall of 2025, The New York Public Library and Data & Society collaborated to present “Understanding AI,” a four-part live event series exploring the social implications of artificial intelligence and its impacts on democracy, the environment, and human labor. Featuring key figures in the AI ethics field, these events took place at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library (SNFL)in New York City as part of the library's7 Stories Up program, and are now available for all to watch.Revisit the series

While homicide totals and most other violent crime figures dropped in Chicago last year, homicides that resulted from domestic violence increased by 15 percent, according to the city's violence reduction dashboard.Advocates say the surge in violent abuse is due to “a tornado of risk factors,” including longstanding issues exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath, such as unstable employment, food insecurity and homelessness. Host - Jon HansenReporter - Mina Bloom Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.
