In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First up—new details are emerging on what Iran is actually offering in nuclear talks with the United States, and it's a far narrower proposal than it first appeared, even as President Trump threatens to deploy a second aircraft carrier strike group if negotiations stall. Later in the show—the United States continues to take aim at Russia's shadow fleet, boarding a sanctioned oil tanker in the Indian Ocean as Washington ramps up enforcement of sanctions. Plus—China issues fresh warnings to Taiwan, reaffirming its support for so-called “reunification forces” and vowing to crack down on what Beijing calls separatists. And in today's Back of the Brief—Washington edges closer to another partial government shutdown as lawmakers remain deadlocked over funding for the Department of Homeland Security.

The situation in Cuba is dire as the Trump administration ramps up its campaign to destabilize the country and destroy its revolution. The island has not been able to import a single drop of oil all year, according to President Miguel Díaz-Canel. Tanker ships headed to Cuba from Venezuela were intercepted and seized by the U.S. military, which has been significantly building up its naval presence in the region with a blockade of both countries.A January executive order targets the countries that supply Cuba with the majority of its oil - including Russia, Mexico and Venezuela - with significant tariffs. This would be an expansion of the sanctions regime that has tried and failed to cut off the island from the rest of the world for decades.Without the ability to receive oil for energy, Cuban infrastructure faces a massive crisis. It produces 40% of the energy it needs and imports the rest. Without the ability to import oil, services as basic as hospitals and even water sanitation could be threatened.These moves by the U.S. are certainly part of the so-called Donroe Doctrine of Donald Trump, but are also an extension of over 60 years of attempted regime change against the socialist nation that's been able to provide much for its people and the world while struggling against imperialism just 90 miles off the coast of Florida.Sign the Call to Conscience open letter at LetCubaLive.infoGet your ticket for our webinar Cuba & Venezuela in Crisis on February 24th at CovertActionMagazine.com Support the show

Die Iran-Krise eskaliert – aber was die Medien verschweigen: US-Finanzminister Scott Bessent gesteht vor dem Kongress, die USA hätten bewusst einen Dollarmangel im Iran geschaffen, um das Regime zu stürzen. Während ein Admiral am Verhandlungstisch sitzt und Netanyahu morgen zu Trump fliegt, steigt Gold über $5.000. China, Russland und Iran haben einen Militärpakt geschlossen. Das ist kein regionaler Konflikt mehr – das ist ein globaler Machtkampf, der dein Vermögen direkt betrifft.

In this Global Brief edition of The Wright Report, Bryan reports that Cuba's communist regime is running on fumes as Mexico cuts off oil shipments under pressure from President Trump, pushing Havana into its deepest crisis in decades and accelerating what appears to be a serious U.S. push for regime change. Bryan then turns to Ukraine, where President Trump delivers a blunt peace ultimatum to both Zelenskyy and Putin, while U.S. pressure on Russian oil sales begins to show real impact. He also reveals how the U.S. military seized another ghost-fleet tanker carrying Venezuelan oil bound for China, tightening the squeeze on Beijing, Moscow, Tehran, and Caracas. The episode closes with a stark look at China's global behavior, from the persecution of Christians to the environmental and security threat posed by its massive illegal fishing fleet, followed by encouraging medical research showing that coffee consumption may significantly reduce dementia risk.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: February 10 2026 Wright Report, Cuba oil cutoff Mexico Sheinbaum Trump tariffs, Cuba regime change crisis Havana fuel shortage, Ukraine peace ultimatum Trump Zelenskyy Putin June deadline, Russia oil squeeze India cuts purchases, ghost fleet tanker seizure Diego Garcia Venezuelan oil, China persecution of Christians Xi Jinping crackdown, illegal Chinese fishing fleet South Africa penguins, Taiwan blockade fishing vessels, coffee dementia risk study Massachusetts gut microbiome

The six states in EIA's PADD 1C subregion — Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia — consume massive volumes of refined products but produce very little themselves. That dichotomy spurred a multi-decade buildout of highly efficient pipeline, marine and trucking networks.

I episode 119 har vi med oss Carsten Winger, daglig leder og hovedforvalter i Vibrand Kapitalforvaltning.

Han er tydelig skeptisk til både Oslo Børs og det amerikanske markedet akkurat nå, og bruker blant annet shipping og olje som et godt eksempel på hvorfor han mener flere norske sektorer er overvurdert.Deretter går vi gjennom flere konkrete temaer og cases:​Hvorfor han er overbevist om at Storebrand, Norwegian og Orkla vil bli kjøpt opp innen to år – og hva som er de felles kjennetegnene (lav prising, svak krone, eierstruktur og ryddede selskaper) ​Det mest sannsynlige scenariet for Telenor de neste 2–3 årene ​Tanker rundt Novo Nordisk og hvordan fremtiden kan se ut​Aksjer og temaer som han har aller mest tro på inn i 2026 - blant disse er segmentene svensk eiendom og konsum. ​Mange aksjer ble løftet frem i episoden som Atea, Ørsted, DNB, Inwido, Nobia, Electrolux, Nokia & EricssonLenker og ressurser:Vibrand Fondene: ⁠vibrandfondene.no⁠Følg Carsten og Vibrand på LinkedIn og deres månedsrapporterDisclaimer: Denne episoden er kun for informasjons- og underholdningsformål og utgjør ikke investeringsrådgivning.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on U.S. forces boarding another tanker carrying sanctioned oil.

Vi har alle forutsetningene. Vi trenger ikke noe mer enn det vi allerede har. Vi er skapt i Guds bilde, vi bærer Gud i oss, og Gud virker i oss gjennom hvert åndedrag vi tar.Det er, for å være helt ærlig, et ganske godt utgangspunkt.Samtidig er det både en tiltrekning og en fare i å bli der, i det koselige og lite krevende. I ideen om at vi er gode akkurat som vi er, og derfor ikke trenger å utvikle oss mer.Fordi Jesus ikke sier at det lille frøet forblir et frø. Eller at surdeigen kan bli værende i sin lille, kjølige krukke og være koselig.Nei. Jesus snakker om forvandling. Om vekst. Om å starte i et godt utgangspunkt, og deretter utvikle seg til noe som er så stort at det ikke bare påvirker vårt eget jeg, men også alt rundt oss på den måten Gud ønsker.Velkommen til å lytte til våre tanker før søndagen!KyndelsmesseEn lignelse til la han fram: «Himmelriket er likt et sennepsfrø som en mann tok og sådde i åkeren sin. Det er mindre enn noe annet frø, men når det har vokst opp, er det større enn andre hagevekster, så det blir til et tre, og himmelens fugler kommer og bygger rede i greinene på det.»Enda en lignelse fortalte han dem: «Himmelriket er likt en surdeig som en kvinne tok og la inn i tre mål mel, så det hele til slutt var gjennomsyret.»Matteus 13, 31-33

Hunderte alte Tanker sind auf den Meeren unterwegs. Als Teil der russischen Schattenflotte transportieren sie unter anderem Erdöl, mit dem Putin seine Kriegskasse füllt. Bisher konnten alte Öltanker unbehelligt von A nach B schippern, auch durch deutsche Meere. Doch damit ist am 10. Januar Schluss, als die Bundespolizei die “Tavian” stoppt, noch bevor sie ins deutsche Küstenmeer der Ostsee einfahren kann. Das “Zombie-Schiff” dreht daraufhin um. In dieser 11KM-Folge erzählt NDR Investigativ-Journalist Antonius Kempmann, was hinter dem Vorgehen deutscher Einsatzkräfte gegen solche Tanker steckt. Es geht um die Macht der russischen Schattenflotte und um die Frage, wer sich ihr überhaupt entgegenstellen kann. Gemeinsam mit der Recherchekooperation von NDR, WDR und Süddeutscher Zeitung hat Antonius zum härteren Vorgehen der deutschen Bundespolizei gegen die russische Schattenflotte recherchiert. Infos zur Recherche findet ihr hier: https://www.tagesschau.de/investigativ/ndr-wdr/schattenflotte-vorgehen-100.html Mit Antonius haben wir im Februar 2025 auch darüber gesprochen, inwiefern deutsche Reeder von den Milliarden, die mit der russischen Schattenflotte gemacht werden, profitieren.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Adam Gilchrist on World View, unpacking a range of major international stories, including growing controversy in the United States after the fatal shooting of 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis, an incident that has triggered protests and renewed scrutiny after video footage appeared to contradict official accounts. They also discuss France’s interception of a Russian oil tanker suspected of helping Moscow evade sanctions linked to the war in Ukraine, and end with a lighter but jaw-dropping story as legendary free-solo climber Alex Honnold once again shocks the world by scaling Taiwan’s iconic Taipei 101 skyscraper without ropes or safety gear. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

What happens when a business deal looks solid on paper—but falls apart in real life? Episode page with video, links, and more My guest for Episode #335 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Kevin Hipes, an entrepreneur, author, and former city commissioner who's been called the “New York Forrest Gump” because of the many lives he's lived. Kevin shares the story of one of his biggest—and most unforgettable—business mistakes: buying an oil tanker in the Caribbean. What began as a seemingly foolproof investment with a strong pro forma turned into a cascade of unexpected challenges, including regulatory changes, ethical dilemmas, geopolitical risk, and international drama. In this episode, we talk about: Why smart people still make big business mistakes How external forces can derail even the best plans Learning from failure instead of hiding from it Resilience after financial and emotional setbacks The importance of mental health awareness for leaders and entrepreneurs Kevin's story is funny, sobering, and deeply human—and a powerful reminder that mistakes don't define us unless we refuse to learn from them.

The Risks of Seizing Russia's Shadow Fleet at Sea. Guest: ANATOL LIEVEN, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. The U.S. seizure of Russian-owned "shadow fleet" tankers raises the risk of a direct military clash if European nations follow suit. Russia views a maritime blockade as an act of war. Hardliners in the Kremlin may seek to escalate to terrify the West into withdrawing support from Ukraine1905 AMIRAL KORNILOV

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: As Iran's regime tightens its information blackout, rare eyewitness accounts are beginning to slip through, offering a disturbing look at how Tehran is carrying out its crackdown— from targeted maiming to raids on hospitals and clinics, revealing tactics that go far beyond disputed body counts. The war on the high seas widens, with new reporting that the United States is seeking court warrants to seize dozens of additional Venezuela-linked oil tankers, signaling a major escalation in maritime pressure. The United States freezes all visa processing for seventy-five countries, including Iran, Russia, and Somalia, in a sweeping move that signals a tougher stance on immigration and national security. And in today's Back of the Brief, a new development in the Havana Syndrome mystery, as the U.S. government quietly acquires a device believed to be linked to the unexplained injuries reported by American officials.

President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy troops to quell protests against ICE agents in Minneapolis. This comes as tensions escalate in the city following a violent nighttime confrontation between an ICE agent and an illegal immigrant in the city. The Department of Homeland Security said the immigrant ambushed the agent, who shot the attacker in the leg in self-defense.President Trump and Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado will meet at the White House on Thursday. Just hours before the meeting, U.S. Southern Command confirmed in a post on X that U.S. armed forces had seized another Venezuela-linked oil tanker in the Caribbean.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: The United Kingdom prepares to join the United States in seizing Russian shadow fleet oil tankers at sea, as Moscow's reflagging gambit raises the risk of direct confrontation between Western forces and Russia.

COLD WAR TACTICS: THE SEIZURE OF A RUSSIAN TANKER Colleague Anatol Lieven, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Lieven discusses the US Navy's detention of a Russian-flagged ship in the North Atlantic, viewing it as a dangerous escalation akin to piracy. This move humiliates Moscow and aims to control oil supplies. Lieven warns that if European nations mimic these seizures, Russia may retaliate violently, risking a direct war.

Today's Headlines: Officials identified Renee Nicole Good — a U.S. citizen — as the woman shot and killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis after he fired three rounds into her car at close range. Video shows Good waving agents around her stopped vehicle before they approached on foot. Despite the footage, Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem labeled her a “domestic terrorist,” a claim Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called “bullshit” while telling ICE to leave the city. Meanwhile, the administration says the U.S. will take over selling Venezuela's blockaded oil “indefinitely,” with proceeds routed through offshore accounts overseen by Trump — though Energy Secretary Chris Wright insists the money will eventually benefit Venezuelans. Trump also bragged that the U.S. seized a massive Russian-flagged oil tanker and, when asked what happens to the oil, replied: “We keep it, I guess.” On Greenland, leaders in Greenland and Denmark are rejecting any U.S. move to acquire the territory and have requested emergency NATO talks — warning it could destabilize the alliance. European partners are now prepping contingency defense plans of their own. In other news, Trump floated banning large investors from buying single-family homes (details TBD… allegedly coming “in two weeks”), while also publicly pressuring defense contractors to cap executive pay and ramp up production — singling out Raytheon as not sufficiently obedient. And in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis is calling a special session to gerrymander.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: Axios: Woman killed by ICE in Minneapolis identified as Renee Nicole Good WSJ: U.S. to Control Venezuelan Oil Sales Indefinitely AP News: Trump says US has seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela The Guardian: Marco Rubio says he will meet Danish officials to discuss Greenland next week Kyivpost: Germany Could Join Multinational Force From Outside Ukraine, Merz Says CNBC: Trump says U.S. to ban large investors from buying homes Axios: Trump threatens to nix Raytheon's defense contracts AP News: Gov.

The United States says it has seized two tankers accused of violating sanctions against Venezuela. One of them, a Russian ship, was boarded in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Britain. The US coastguard had been pursuing the ship for weeks since intercepting it off the Venezuelan coast. During the chase, the vessel underwent a change of name and adopted a Russian flag. Russian support including a submarine was on its way before the tanker was seized. The other tanker, sailing under the flag of Cameroon, was seized in the Caribbean. Also: the White House says that President Trump has been discussing options, including military force, to acquire Greenland, which it says is vital to US security.

Today's Headlines: Looks like there's no easing into this new year. Trump dramatically escalated his Venezuela fixation this weekend, launching major strikes in Caracas and having Nicolás Maduro pulled from his home and flown to federal detention in Brooklyn. Maduro was re-indicted on familiar narcotrafficking charges, while Trump bragged that the U.S. is effectively “running Venezuela now” alongside American oil companies. But instead of installing Trump's preferred opposition figure, Venezuela's Supreme Court tapped Maduro's vice president Delcy Rodríguez as interim leader. Before all that, the U.S. had spent weeks chasing a Venezuela-bound oil tanker — until Russia swooped in on New Year's Eve, added it to its registry, and painted a Russian flag on the side to shield it from seizure. Trump also hosted President Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago with Stephen Miller, Jared Kushner, and Pete Hegseth, claiming “progress” while simultaneously echoing outrage on Putin's behalf after a friendly call with him. Abroad, Switzerland's army chief warned the country couldn't withstand a major attack, protests in Iran turned deadly as Trump threatened to “intervene,” and Trump ordered Christmas Day strikes on ISIS militants in Nigeria. On the home front, Trump froze all childcare payments nationwide after citing a Minnesota welfare fraud case involving a small group of Somali immigrants — while simultaneously moving to garnish wages from millions of student loan borrowers in default starting in January. One notable check on his power: the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 against his National Guard deployments to several U.S. cities. Meanwhile, the newly released Jack Smith testimony says he had evidence Trump committed multiple felonies that could rise to treason before his cases were shut down — and the massive Epstein document dump is already under scrutiny for delays, missing records, and questionable redactions, including internal DOJ emails noting Trump flew on Epstein's plane more than previously known.
