Greta Thunberg is a burr in the ass of the powerful throughout the world—and not only for rightwing sociopaths.

Tausende Menschen aus 52 Ländern trafen sich ab dem 12. Juni 2025 in Ägypten, um zur Grenze nach Gaza zu marschieren und die Missachtung des Völkerrechts durch Israel zu beenden.Am 12. Juni 2025 brach eine Graswurzelbewegung aus Zivilisten im Rahmen des „Global March to Gaza“ an die ägyptische Grenze zum Gazastreifen auf, um die illegale Blockade durch Israel zu durchbrechen. Die Initiative fand sich im Mai 2025 zusammen und wuchs schnell an. Sie setzt sich nicht aus NGOs oder Organisationen zusammen, sondern aus Einzelpersonen, darunter Ärzte, die selbst in Gaza waren, und Palästinenser aus der Diaspora, sowie Menschen aus anderen Ländern, die die Blockade Gazas nicht mehr hinnehmen können. Die Delegationen stammen aus 52 Nationen, darunter auch über 100 Menschen aus Deutschland.Ein Standpunkt von Elisa GratiasDie Organisatoren des Globalen Marschs nach Gaza (GMTG) wollen ein Zeichen gegen die humanitäre Katastrophe setzen, die die israelische Armee der Bevölkerung von Gaza aufzwingt. Die Teilnehmer trafen sich am 12. Juni in Kairo in Ägypten und hatten vor, über mehrere Tage von Al-Arisch im Nordosten des Landes durch die Wüste bis an die Grenze nach Rafah zu marschieren. Damit sollte sowohl auf die Regierung Israels als auch die Regierungen der Länder, die die israelische Führung trotz allem bis heute unterstützen, Druck ausgeübt werden.Da der Bereich vor Gaza ein Militärgebiet ist, brauchten die Initiatoren des Marschs die Erlaubnis der ägyptischen Behörden, um überhaupt an die Grenze zu Gaza zu kommen. Die Organisatoren waren sich bewusst, dass sie die Blockade wohl nicht durchbrechen können würden, doch sie wollten den aktuellen Zustand nicht hinnehmen. Es ging ihnen vor allem darum, darauf aufmerksam zu machen, dass am Grenzübergang von Rafah Tausende von Lkw bereitstehen, mit denen die hungernde Bevölkerung im Gazastreifen versorgt werden könnte.Bereits am 1. Juni 2025 brachen 12 internationale Aktivisten von der „Gaza Freedom Flotilla“ mit demselben Ziel von Sizilien in Italien über den Meerweg nach Gaza auf. Auf ihrem Schiff „Madleen“ transportierten sie dringend benötigte Hilfsgüter für die Bevölkerung von Gaza, darunter Babynahrung, Mehl, Reis, Windeln, Damenhygieneartikel, Wasseraufbereitungsanlagen, medizinische Hilfsgüter, Krücken und Prothesen für Kinder.Obwohl die „Freedom Flotilla Coalition“ immer wieder betont hatte, dass es sich um einen friedlichen Akt zivilen Widerstands handelte und alle Besatzungsmitglieder in Gewaltfreiheit geschult und unbewaffnet waren, stürmte die israelische Armee die „Madleen“ am 9. Juni 2025 in internationalen Gewässern vor Gaza und nahm die zwölf Aktivisten in Gewahrsam, darunter die bekannte schwedische Klimaaktivistin Greta Thunberg, die Europaabgeordnete Rima Hassan und die deutsche Staatsbürgerin Yasemin Acar. Einen Tag später wurden vier Aktivisten in ihre Heimatländer überführt, darunter auch Thunberg, während die acht übrigen noch länger festgehalten wurden:...https://apolut.net/ein-globales-erwachen-von-elisa-gratias/ Hosted on Acast.

First up, Georgetown law professor and former national legal director at the ACLU, David Cole, joins us to discuss the legal response to the Trump Administration's serial violations of the Constitution. Then Mike Ferner of Veterans for Peace checks in to update us halfway through his Fast for Gaza, 40 days of living on 250 calories per day, which is the average caloric intake of Palestinian survivors in Gaza. Finally, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, Joe Holley, stops by to pay tribute to his mentor and colleague, the late crusading journalist, Ronnie Dugger, founder of the progressive Texas Observer.David Cole is the Honorable George J. Mitchell Professor in Law and Public Policy and former National Legal Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). He writes about and teaches constitutional law, freedom of speech, and constitutional criminal procedure. He is a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books and is the legal affairs correspondent for The Nation.Trump is obviously not concerned about antisemitism. He's concerned about targeting schools because they are places where people can criticize the president, where people can think independently, are taught to think independently, and often don't support what the president is doing. He's using his excuse to target a central institution of civil society.David ColeThe decision on Trump versus the United States is only about criminal liability for criminal acts, not for unconstitutional acts. And violating the Constitution is not a crime. Every president has violated the Constitution probably since George Washington. That's not a crime.David ColeMike Ferner served in the Navy during the Vietnam War, and he is former National Director and current Special Projects Coordinator for Veterans for Peace. He is the author of Inside the Red Zone: A Veteran for Peace Reports from Iraq.Two hundred and fifty calories is technically, officially, a starvation diet, and we're doing it for 40 days. The people in Gaza have been doing it for months and months and months, and they're dying like crazy. That's the whole concern that we're trying to raise. And I'll tell you at the end of this fast, on the 40th day, we are not just going out silently. There are going to be some fireworks before we're done with this thing. So all I'm saying is: stay tuned.Mike Ferner: Special Projects Coordinator of Veterans for Peace on “FastforGaza”They're (The Veterans Administration is) being defamed, Ralph, for the same reason that those right-wing corporatists defamed public education. So they can privatize it. And that's exactly what they're trying to do with the VA. And I can tell you every single member of Veterans for Peace has got nothing but praise for the VA.Mike FernerJoe Holley was the editor of the Texas Observer in the early 1980s. A former staff writer at The Washington Post and a Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial writer and columnist at the Houston Chronicle, he is the author of eight books, mostly about Texas.He would talk to people, and he would find out things going on about racial discrimination, about farm workers being mistreated, all kind of stories that the big papers weren't reporting. And this one guy, young Ronnie Dugger, would write these stories and expose things about Texas that a lot of Texans just did not know.Joe Holley on the late progressive journalist, Ronnie DuggerHe knew the dark side of Texas, but he always had an upbeat personality. I had numerous conversations with Ronnie (Dugger), and he was ferociously independent.Ralph NaderNews 6/13/251. On Monday, Israeli forces seized the Madleen, the ship carrying activist Greta Thunberg and others attempting to bring food and other supplies past the Israeli blockade into Gaza, and detained the crew. The ship was part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition and Thunberg had been designated an “Ambassador of Conscience,” by Amnesty International. The group decried her detention, with Secretary General Agnès Callamard writing, “Israel has once again flouted its legal obligations towards civilians in the occupied Gaza Strip and demonstrated its chilling contempt for legally binding orders of the International Court of Justice.” On Tuesday, CBS reported that Israel deported Thunberg. Eight other passengers refused deportation and the Jerusalem Post reports they remain in Israeli custody. They will be represented in Israeli courts by Adalah - The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel. One of these detainees is Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament.2. Shortly before the Madleen was intercepted, members of Congress sent a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressing concern for the safety of these activists, citing the deadly 2010 raid of the Mavi Marmara, which ultimately resulted in the death of ten activists, including an American. This letter continued, “any attack on the Madleen or its civilian crew is a clear and blatant violation of international law. United Nations experts have called for the ship's safe passage and warned Israel to “refrain from any act of hostility” against the Madleen and its passengers…We call on you to monitor the Madleen's journey and deter any such hostile actions.” This letter was led by Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and drew signatures from Congressional progressives like Reps. Summer Lee, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Greg Casar, and others.3. On the other end of the political spectrum, Trump – ever unpredictable – seemed to criticize Israel's detention of Thunberg. In a press conference, “Trump was…asked about Thunberg's claim that she had been kidnapped.” The president responded “I think Israel has enough problems without kidnapping Greta Thunberg…Is that what she said? She was kidnapped by Israel?” The reporter replied “Yes, sir,” to which “Trump responded by shaking his head.” This from Newsweek.4. Of course, the major Trump news this week is his response to the uprising in Los Angeles. Set off by a new wave of ICE raids, protesters have clashed with police in the streets and Trump has responded by increasingly upping the ante, including threatening to arrest California Governor Gavin Newsom, per KTLA. Beyond such bluster however, Trump has moved to deploy U.S. Marines onto the streets of the nation's second-largest city. Reuters reports, “About 700 Marines were in a staging area in the Seal Beach area about 30 miles…south of Los Angeles, awaiting deployment to specific locations,” in addition to 2,100 National Guard troops. The deployment of these troops raises thorny legal questions. Per Reuters, “The Marines and National Guard troops lack the authority to makes arrests and will be charged only with protecting federal property and personnel,” but “California Attorney General Rob Bonta… [said] there was a risk that could violate an 1878 law that…forbids the U.S. military, including the National Guard, from taking part in civilian law enforcement.” Yet, despite all the tumult, these protests seem to have gotten the goods, so to speak: the City of Glendale announced it would, “end its agreement with…ICE to house federal immigration detainees.” All of this sets quite a scene going into Trump's military parade in DC slated for Saturday, June 14th.5. In classic fashion however, Trump's tough posture does not extend to corporate crime. Public Citizen's Rick Claypool reports, “Trump's DOJ just announced American corporations that engage in criminal bribery schemes abroad will no longer be prosecuted.” Claypool cites a June 9th memo from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, which reads, “Effective today, prosecutors shall…not attribute…malfeasance to corporate structures.” Claypool also cites a Wall Street Journal piece noting that “the DOJ has already ended half of its criminal investigations into corporate bribery in foreign countries and shrunk its [Foreign Corrupt Practices Act] unit down to 25 employees.”6. Americans can at least take small comfort in one thing: the departure of Elon Musk from the top rungs of government. It remains to be seen what exactly precipitated his final exit and how deep his rift with Trump goes – Musk has already backed down on his harshest criticisms of the president, deleting his tweet claiming Trump was in Epstein files, per ABC. Yet, this appears to be a victory for Steve Bannon and the forces he represents within Trump's inner circle. On June 5th, the New York Times reported that Bannon, “said he was advising the president to cancel all [Musk's] contracts and… ‘initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status'.” Bannon added, “[Musk] should be deported from the country immediately.'” Bannon has even called for a special counsel probe, per the Hill. Bannon's apparent ascendency goes beyond the Oval Office as well. POLITICO Playbook reports Bannon had a 20-minute-long conversation with Pennsylvania Democratic Senator John Fetterman on Monday evening – while Fetterman dined with Washington bureau chief for Breitbart, Matt Boyle – at Butterworth's, the DC MAGA “watering hole.” This also from the Hill.7. On the way out, the Daily Beast reports, “Elon Musk's goons at the Department of Government Efficiency transmitted a large amount of data—all of it undetected—using a Starlink Wi-Fi terminal they installed on top of the White House.” Sources “suggested that the [the installation of the Starlink terminal] was intended to bypass White House systems that track the transmission of data—with names and time stamps—and secure it from spies.” It is unknown exactly what data Musk and his minions absconded with, and for what purpose. We can only hope the public gets some answers.8. With Musk and Trump parting ways, other political forces are now seeking to woo the richest man in the world. Semafor reports enigmatic Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, who represents Silicon Valley and chaired Bernie Sanders' campaign in California, “talked with one of…Musk's ‘senior confidants' …about whether the ex-DOGE leader…might want to help the Democratic Party in the midterms.” Khanna added, “Having Elon speak out against the irrational tariff policy, against the deficit exploding Trump bill, and the anti-science and anti-immigrant agenda can help check Trump's unconstitutional administration…I look forward to Elon turning his fire against MAGA Republicans instead of Democrats in 2026.” On the other hand, the Hill reports ex-Democrat Andrew Yang is publicly appealing to Musk for an alliance following Musk's call for the establishment of an “America Party.” Yang himself founded the Forward Party in 2021. Yang indicated Musk has not responded to his overtures.9. Meanwhile, the leadership of the Democratic Party appears to be giving up entirely. In a leaked Zoom meeting, DNC Chair Ken Martin – only elected in February – said, “I don't know if I wanna do this anymore,” per POLITICO. On this call, Martin expressed frustration with DNC Vice Chair David Hogg, blaming him for, “[destroying] any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to.” Hogg meanwhile has doubled down, defying DNC leadership by “wading into another primary,” this time for the open seat left by the death of Congressman Gerry Conolly in Virginia, the Washington Post reports. The DNC is still weighing whether to void Hogg's election as Vice Chair.10. Finally, in some good news from New York City, State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani appears to have closed the gap with disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo began the race with a 40-point lead; a new Data for Progress poll shows that lead has been cut down to just two points. Moreover, that poll was conducted before Mamdani was endorsed by AOC, who is expected to bring with her substantial support from Latinos and residents of Queens, among other groups. Notably, Mamdani has racked up tremendous numbers among young men, a demographic the Democratic Party has struggled to attract in recent elections. Cuomo will not go down without a fight however. The political nepo-baby has already secured a separate ballot line for the November election, meaning he will be in the race even if he loses the Democratic primary, and he is being boosted by a new million-dollar digital ad spend by Airbnb, per POLITICO. The New York City Democratic Primary will be held on June 24th.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an 14ú lá de mhí an Mheithimh. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin.Sheol Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Donald Trump comhaltaí de Gharda Náisiúnta agus de mhuirshaighdiúirí na tíre go Los Angeles an tseachtain seo chun dul i ngleic leis na hagóidí sa chathair. Dúirt Gobharnóir an Stáit, Gavin Newsom, go raibh ordú Trump mídhleathach agus gur chruthaigh sé níos mó fadhbanna sa chathair. Caitheadh buidéil agus clocha le póilíní, cuireadh cairr trí thine, agus scaoil na póilíní piléir rubair leis an slua. Thosnaigh an clampar mar fhrithghníomhnú in aghaidh nan-oifigeach inimirce atá ag déanamh ruathar ar inimircigh nach bhfuil na cáipéisí cuí acu. De réir Newsom, bhí Trump ag iarraidh géarchéim a chruthú lena ordú agus nach raibh an t-údarás aige an Garda Náisiúnta a sheoladh go dtí an Stát. Gheall sé godtabharfadh sé cás in éadan an Uachtaráin. Tá ordú cuirfiú i bhfeidhm sa chathair anois thar oíche.Ghabh forsaí míleata Iosrael seilbh ar ghníomhaithe ar son na Palaistíne agus a luamh an ‘Madleen' amach ó chósta Gaza maidin Dé Luain. Bhí na gníomhaithe ag iarraidh soláthairtí bia agus leighis a thabhairt go dtí an Stráice agus aird an domhaina tharraingt ar an ngorta atá ar siúl ansan fé láthair. Bhí an gníomhaí aeráide Greta Thunberg ar an mbád, mar aon leis an bhFeisire de Pharlaimint na hEorpa, Rima Hassan. Ghabh na forsaí míleata seilbh ar an long in uiscí idirnáisiúnta, rud a cháinAmnesty International go géar agus iad ag rá gur scrios forsaí Iosrael an dlí idirnáisiúnta. Dúirt an Tánaiste Simon Harris gur ábhar náireach é agus go raibh an domhan iomlán ag thabhairt neamhaird ar an ngéarchéim dhaonnúil in Gaza. Díbríodh Thunberg agus trí ghníomhaí eile thar n-ais chuig a dtíortha dúchais Dé Máirt; tá na gníomhaithe eile ag cur in aghaidh na n-orduithe díbeartha. Tá an t-amhránaí agus cumadóir amhrán mór le rá Brian Wilson ar shlí na fírinne. Bhí sé ar dhuine de bhunaitheoirí an bhanna ceoil, The Beach Boys, sna seascaidí agus bhí sé ina cheann feadhna ar an ngrúpa ó thaobh an cheoil de. Bhain The BeachBoys cáil amach mar gheall ar a bhfoinn bhinne agus an nasc idir a gceol agus an cultúr surfála, rud atá le clos sna hamhráin ar nós “Surfin' USA', “Surfin' Safari” agus “Surfer Girl”. Is é an t-albam “Pet Sounds” an ceirnín a bhfuil an cháil is mó air, agus,de réir go leor daoine, is é an t-albam is fearr a taifeadadh riamh. D'fhulaing Wilson le fabhanna meabhairshláinte le linn a shaoil, agus de réir a chomhpháirtithe sa ghrúpa, mhéadaigh a úsáid drugaí, go háirithe LSD, a chuid fabhanna. Bhí blianta corracha aige sna seachtóidí agus sna hochtaidí, ach tháinig feabhas ar a shaol arís nuair a phós sé Melinda Ledbetter in 1995 agus chuaigh sé thar n-ais ar camchúirt.

The A.M. Update dives into the escalating Los Angeles riots, where 700 Marines join 2,000 National Guard troops to quell unrest sparked by ICE raids. President Trump accuses California Governor Gavin Newsom of criminal mismanagement, while Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta sue Trump, alleging his National Guard federalization violates the 10th Amendment. Trump claims protesters are “professional agitators” and “insurrectionists,” not just illegal immigrants. An illegal immigrant protester, interviewed by Willie Nelson, advocates for “real socialism” modeled on the Soviet Union's first four years. Senator Alex Padilla defends the “passionate” protesters, and Representative Maxine Waters denies violence occurred. Border Czar Tom Homan pushes for the Big Beautiful Bill to fund ICE and address 600,000 criminal illegal aliens. Meanwhile, RFK Jr. dismisses the CDC's Vaccine Advisory Committee, Greta Thunberg is detained by Israel for supporting Hamas, and another Chinese scientist is caught smuggling biological materials.

Izraelskie służby zatrzymały jacht Madleen próbujący przełamać blokadę morską Strefy Gazy. Na pokładzie łodzi z pomocą humanitarną płynęło 12 aktywistów, w tym znana szwedzka działaczka klimatyczna. O zatrzymaniu Flotylli Wolności i kryzysie humanitarnym w Gazie Martyna Turska-Bukaty rozmawia z Michałem Wojnarowiczem, analitykiem Polskiego Instytutu Spraw Międzynarodowych.

Greta Thunberg, la niña que en 2018 irrumpió en la escena mundial por hablar claro a los adultos y a los gobernantes del mundo sobre la urgencia de parar el cambio climático, es ahora punta de lanza activista contra el genocidio palestino. ¿Por qué este viaje político? ¿Cómo se ha dado esta evolución? ¿El cambio climático ha perdido un símbolo o es la confirmación de que todas las injusticias globales están conectadas? Con Raúl Rejón, periodista especializado en Medio Ambiente de elDiario.es, y con Sílvia Díaz Perez, investigadora experta en comunicación y movimientos sociales de la Universitat Pompeu Fabra, que ha seguido la evolución de Thunberg desde su aparición, respondemos estas preguntas y analizamos las claves de su éxito mundial. *** Envíanos una nota de voz por Whatsapp contándonos alguna historia que conozcas o algún sonido que tengas cerca y que te llame la atención.

Con un 30,6% di affluenza il referendum non raggiunge il quorum e innesca il dibattito: chi perde e chi vince, lo strumento referendum va modificato e come? Intanto altre città oltre a Los Angeles protestano e Trump manda l'esercito, in Iran il divieto di portare fuori il cane si estende a tutto il Paese, la Cina impone l'epidurale negli ospedali per rilanciare la natività e nel Bergamasco un parroco celebra vittima e autore di femminicidio insieme "in un gesto d'amore" scatenando la "gogna mediatica".

ARÍSTEGUI: "La ridiculez de Greta Thunberg: utiliza una tragedia humana para su promoción personal"Gustavo de Arístegui, diplomático, califica de “extraordinariamente grave” la situación en Los Ángeles, donde denuncia una oleada de violencia incontrolada en las calles, con coches incendiados, barricadas, y agresiones directas a la policía, incluso con armas de fuego. Critica con dureza a la alcaldesa Karen Bass por “ponerse del lado de los vándalos” y al gobernador Gavin Newsom por priorizar la propaganda anti-Trump frente a la defensa ciudadana, a pesar de contar con la fuerza estatal más grande del país. Sobre Gaza, Arístegui arremete contra la “inmoralidad” de figuras como Greta Thunberg, a quien acusa de aprovechar una tragedia humanitaria para su promoción personal, calificando la situación de “sainete tragicómico”. Según el diplomático, esta misión se habría planteado bajo el pretexto de llevar ayuda humanitaria a Gaza, una región que describe como sumida en una tragedia humana profunda, con el 94% de las viviendas destruidas y miles de desplazamientos forzosos internos. Sin embargo, para Arístegui, la presencia de Thunberg no tenía un fin humanitario real, sino que respondía a su interés personal por promocionar su imagen, afirmando que usó un teléfono satelital para lanzar un mensaje “con voz temblorosa”, tratando de ganar protagonismo global con una retórica emocional pero vacía.En cuanto a las negociaciones entre Irán y EE.UU., valora el papel positivo de mediadores como Qatar, Emiratos y Omán, pero cree que es inaceptable que Irán quiera enriquecer uranio al 90%, nivel solo necesario para armamento nuclear, exigiendo transparencia y supervisión internacional. Respecto a Ucrania, respalda los análisis de inteligencia que señalan que Rusia no pretende terminar la guerra antes de 2026, buscando ampliar su control territorial ilegalmente antes de entrar a cualquier negociación, y advierte contra confundir un alto el fuego con un tratado de paz. Además, critica que se presione más a Ucrania que al agresor. #thunberg #gaza #tragedia #humana #promocion #eeuu #losangeles #california #ucrania #trump #geopolitica #negociostv Si quieres entrar en la Academia de Negocios TV, este es el enlace: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwd8Byi93KbnsYmCcKLExvQ/join Síguenos en directo ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pSuscríbete a nuestro canal: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2Suscríbete a nuestro segundo canal, másnegocios: https://n9.cl/4dca4Visita Negocios TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pMás vídeos de Negocios TV: https://youtube.com/@NegociosTVSíguenos en Telegram: https://t.me/negociostvSíguenos en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWndTwitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6LptFacebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy

İsrail, Gazze'ye insani yardım taşıyan ve ablukayı kırmak isteyen “Madleen” gemisindeki 12 insan hakları aktivistini uluslararası kara sularında alıkoydu. Yapılan baskını ve aktivistlerin akıbetini, Anadolu Ajansı Kudüs Muhabiri Enes Canlı ile konuştuk.
Na začátku června vyplula z italské Katánie loď Madleen, se kterou se dvanáctičlenná posádka, včetně třeba švédské aktivistky Grety Thunberg nebo francouzské europoslankyně Rimy Hasan, snažila dostat do Pásma Gazy. Cílem bylo nejen dostat do oblasti humanitární pomoc, ale především upozornit na katastrofální situaci. Izraelský ministr obrany Jisrael Kac však armádě nařídil, aby loď zastavila a přesměrovala ji do izraelského přístavu Ašdod. Izraelská diplomacie navíc na síti X uvedla: „'Selfie jachta' s 'celebritami' bezpečně směřuje k břehům Izraele. Předpokládá se, že se pasažéři vrátí do svých zemí. Dostali sendviče a vodu. Show skončila," dodalo ministerstvo. Má ale Izrael právo blokovat aktivisty i z pohledu mezinárodního práva? Byla vůbec šance, že by se loď Madleen do Pásma Gazy dostala? A co je vlastně Koalice flotily svobody, která výpravu zorganizovala, za hnutí? I o tom mluví ve zpravodajském podcastu Výtah Respektu Dominika Perlínová.

Ralph welcomes Heidi Shierholz, president of the Economic Policy Institute, to break down the budget bill passing through Congress that is the largest transfer of wealth from the poor and working-class to the wealthy in United States history. Then, insurance expert, Robert Hunter returns to discuss the recent rise in auto insurance rates.Heidi Shierholz is the president of the Economic Policy Institute, a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank that uses the power of its research on economic trends and on the impact of economic policies to advance reforms that serve working people, deliver racial justice, and guarantee gender equity. In 2021 she became the fourth president EPI has had since its founding in 1986.We've never seen a budget that so plainly takes from the poor to give to the rich… The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office found that lower and lower middle-income people will actually lose out. They may get something of a tax break, but they lose benefits. So that on net, their after-tax income will be lower after this bill, while the rich just make out like bandits.Heidi Shierholz, President of the Economic Policy InstituteThe draconian cuts that we are seeing to the safety net are not big enough, because the tax increases are so huge that this bill also increases the deficit dramatically.Heidi ShierholzMany folks are calling this the MAGA Murder Bill. They're not wrong. People will die because of the cuts that we're seeing here.Heidi ShierholzRobert Hunter is the Director Emeritus of Insurance at the Consumer Federation of America. He has held many positions in the field, both public and private, including being the Commissioner of Insurance for the State of Texas being the President and Founder of the National Insurance Consumer Organization and served as United States Federal Insurance Administrator.Decide how much you need. Don't ask for more than you really need. And then once you have it, “I need this much for my car. I need this much if I hit somebody” and so on. And then you get that statistic, and you send it out to several companies and get quotes.Robert Hunter on buying auto insuranceThere isn't any program benefiting the American people that Trump is not cutting in order to turn the country over to the giant corporations and the super-rich. It's basically an overthrow of the government and an overthrow of the rule of law.Ralph NaderNews 6/6/251. On May 23rd, the Trump administration Department of Justice officially announced it had reached an agreement with Boeing to drop its criminal case against the airline manufacturer related to the 2018 and 2019 crashes that killed 346 people, NPR reports. The turnover at the federal government in recent years has prolonged this case; the first Trump administration reached a deferred prosecution agreement with Boeing in 2021, but prosecutors revived the criminal case under President Biden, and as NPR notes, “Boeing agreed last year to plead guilty to defrauding regulators, but a federal judge rejected that proposed plea deal.” Just before the deal was reached, Senators Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal penned a letter calling on the DOJ not to “allow [Boeing] to weasel its way out of accountability for its failed corporate culture, and for any illegal behavior that has resulted in deadly consequence,” but this was clearly ignored. Paul Cassell, a law professor at the University of Utah and former federal judge who, according to NPR, is representing the families of victims for free, said, “This kind of non-prosecution deal is unprecedented and obviously wrong for the deadliest corporate crime in U.S. history…My families will object and hope to convince the court to reject [the deal]."2. That same day, Trump signed a new executive order to “cut down on regulations and fast-track new licenses for [nuclear] reactors and power plants,” per Reuters. According to the wire service, “Shares of uranium mining companies Uranium Energy…Energy Fuels…and Centrus Energy…jumped between 19.6% and 24.2%” following this announcement. Sam Altman-backed nuclear startup Oklo gained 23.1%. The administration's new interest in the nuclear industry is spurred in part by increased demand for energy as, “power-hungry data centers dedicated to artificial intelligence and crypto miners plug into the grid.” The nuclear industry is also expected to retain many tax incentives stripped away from green energy initiatives in the so-called Big Beautiful Bill.3. In yet another instance of the Trump administration going soft on corporate greed, the Republican-controlled Federal Trade Commission has dismissed their case against PepsiCo. As the AP explains, “The lawsuit…alleged that PepsiCo was giving unfair price advantages to Walmart at the expense of other vendors and consumers,” citing the 1936 Robinson-Patman Act, which bans companies from “using promotional incentive payments to favor large customers over smaller ones.” Current FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson called the case a “dubious partisan stunt,” in a press release. Former Chair Lina Khan however, called the dismissal “disturbing,” and wrote, “This lawsuit would've protected families from paying higher prices at the grocery store and stopped conduct that squeezes small businesses and communities across America. Dismissing it is a gift to giant retailers as they gear up to hike prices.”4. Instead of utilizing the federal regulatory apparatus to protect consumers and the public, the Trump administration instead continues to weaponize these institutions to target progressive groups. According to Axios, the FTC is “investigating…Media Matters over claims that it and other media advocacy groups coordinated advertising boycotts of Elon Musk's X.” As this report notes, “X [formerly Twitter] sued Media Matters for defamation in 2023 for a report it publicly released that showed ads on X running next to pro-Nazi content. X claimed the report contributed to an advertiser exodus.” While it seems unlikely the social media platform could prevail in such a suit, the suit has effectively cowed the advertising industry, with the World Federation of Advertisers dismantling their Global Alliance for Responsible Media just months after the suit was filed. Media Matters president Angelo Carusone is quoted saying, “The Trump administration has been defined by naming right-wing media figures to key posts and abusing the power of the federal government to bully political opponents and silence critics…that's exactly what's happening here…These threats won't work; we remain steadfast to our mission.”5. On Thursday, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cotez endorsed State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani in his bid for Mayor of New York City, POLITICO reports. This endorsement came the morning after the first mayoral primary debate, a rollicking affair featuring nine candidates and including a testy exchange in which the moderators disregarded their own rules to press Mamdani to say whether he believed in “a Jewish state of Israel?” Mamdani responded that he believed Israel has a right to exist “as a state with equal rights.” This from the Times of Israel. In her endorsement, AOC wrote “Assemblymember Mamdani has demonstrated a real ability on the ground to put together a coalition of working-class New Yorkers that is strongest to lead the pack…In the final stretch of the race, we need to get very real about that.” Ocasio-Cortez said she would rank Adrienne Adams, Brad Lander, Scott Stringer and Zellnor Myrie in that order after Mamdani.6. Turning to Palestine itself, the Times of Israel reports notorious Biden State Department spokesman Matthew Miller admitted in an interview that, “It is without a doubt true that Israel has committed war crimes” in Gaza. While Miller stops short of accusing the Israeli government of pursuing “a policy of deliberately committing war crimes,” and repeats the tired canard that Hamas resisted ceasefire negotiations, he admits that the Biden administration “could have done [more] to pressure the Israeli government to agree to…[a] ceasefire.” Hopefully, Miller's admission will help crack the dam of silence and allow the truth to be told about this criminal military campaign.7. Even as Miller makes this admission, the merciless bombing of Palestinians continues. The Guardian reports “On Sunday, at least 31 Palestinians were killed after Israeli forces opened fire at the site of a food distribution centre in Rafah…On Monday, another three Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire at the same site…And on Tuesday, 27 people were killed after Israeli forces opened fire again, say Gaza officials.” This report continues, citing UN human rights chief, Volker Türk, who said on Tuesday that “Palestinians in Gaza now faced an impossible choice: ‘Die from starvation or risk being killed while trying to access the meagre food that is being made available.'” Türk added that by attacking civilians, Israel is committing yet more war crimes.8. Some high-profile activists are taking direct action to deliver food to Gaza. Democracy Now! reports 12 activists aboard The Madleen, part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, have departed from the Italian port of Catania. This group includes Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, actor Liam Cunningham, and Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament. Despite the previous ship being targeted by a drone attack, Thunberg is quoted saying “We deem the risk of silence and the risk of inaction to be so much more deadly than this mission.” Threats to the flotilla continue to pour in. South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham tweeted, “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” In Israel itself, IDF spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin ominously stated “we will act accordingly," per FOX News.9. In more foreign policy news, Gareth Gore – a Washington Post reporter and author of Opus, an exposé of the shadowy Opus Dei sect within the Catholic Church – reports Pope Leo has given Opus Dei six months to “pass comprehensive reforms” and has told the group that if significant changes are not made by December, “necessary measures will be taken.” Gore further reports that in addition to the reforms, “[Pope] Leo has also demanded an investigation into abuse allegations…[including] human trafficking, enslavement…[and] physical and psychological abuse of members.” According to Gore, the reforms were first ordered by Pope Francis in 2022, but “Opus Dei dragged its feet – in the hope the pope would pass away first.” Upon his death, Pope Francis had been on the, “cusp of signing into canon law a huge reform of Opus Dei.” The Vatican was also moving to force a vote on a revised Opus Dei constitution, which was, “quietly cancelled” within hours of Francis' death. Perhaps most tellingly, Gore reports “The Vatican has privately reassured Opus Dei victims who have long campaigned for justice that they ‘won't be disappointed'”10. Finally, a political earthquake has occurred in South Korea. Listeners may remember the failed coup attempt by right-wing former President Yoon Suk Yeol, which culminated in his ouster and could ultimately lead to a sentence of life in prison or even death. Now, the country has elected a new president, Lee Jae-myung, by a margin of 49.4% to 41.2%. Lee, who leads Korea's Democratic People's Party, has “endured a barrage of criminal indictments and an assassination attempt,” since losing the last presidential election by a margin of less than 1 per cent, per the Financial Times. Lee is a former factory worker who campaigned in a bulletproof vest after surviving being knifed in the neck last year. The FT notes “Lee…grew up in poverty and suffered [a] permanent injury at the age of 13 when his arm was crushed in a machine at the baseball glove factory where he worked…in 2022 [he] declared his ambition to be a ‘successful Bernie Sanders'.” That said, he has pivoted to the center in his recent political messaging. Beyond the impact of Lee's election on the future of Korean democracy, his tenure is sure to set a new tone in Korea's relations with their neighbors including the US, the DPRK, China and Japan.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

This week is mainly devoted to listener questions and feedback. First, Ralph answers some of the questions you have submitted over the past few weeks. Then we invite back last week's guest, Erica Payne, of Patriotic Millionaires, to respond to your very thoughtful comments on the interview we did with that group's plan for preserving democracy by taxing the rich. Plus, Ralph highlights the outrages of the Trump/Musk assault on government programs that help ordinary people.Erica Payne is the founder and president of Patriotic Millionaires, an organization of high-net-worth individuals that aims to restructure America's political economy to suit the needs of all Americans. Their work includes advocating for a highly progressive tax system, a livable minimum wage, and equal political representation for all citizens. She is the co-author, with Morris Pearl, of Tax the Rich: How Lies, Loopholes and Lobbyists Make the Rich Even Richer.The real reason for taxation is democracy protection.Erica PayneI think the question is not: do we need to fix the estate tax? The question is: what is the best, most defensible mechanism through which you can tax the transfer of wealth from one generation to the other in order to protect American democracy from dynastic wealth—that is sufficient that you find five generations from now Elon Musk's kid isn't spending as much money on these elections as their great great great great great granddaddy is.Erica PayneAusterity applied at a federal level to a society that is in distress does the exact opposite of what the proponents of austerity are saying it should do. The tightening of the belt actually cuts off the circulation of the society.Erica PayneNews 5/9/251. While the Catholic clergy convene in Rome for the Papal Conclave, Pope Francis graces the world with one final gift. Vatican News reports, “His popemobile, the very vehicle from which he waved and was close to millions of faithful all around the world, is being transformed into a mobile health unit for the children of Gaza.” This article states this was Francis' “final wish,” and quotes his refrain that “Children are not numbers. They are faces. Names. Stories. And each one is sacred.” The vehicle is reportedly being outfitted with equipment for “diagnosis, examination, and treatment – including rapid tests for infections, diagnostic instruments, vaccines, suture kits, and other life-saving supplies,” and it will be staffed by doctors and medics. Yet, given Israel's track record for the destruction of medical facilities in Gaza, it is unclear how long this mobile health unit itself will survive.2. In more distressing news from Gaza, CNN reports that “A Gaza-bound activist aid ship [part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition] caught fire and issued an SOS, after what its organizers claimed was an Israeli drone attack off the coast of Malta…[on] Friday.” Per CNN, the ship was due to make port in Malta and pick up “a large contingent of activists” there before departing for Gaza. These included environmental activist Greta Thunberg and retired US Army Colonel Mary Ann Wright. Thunberg said this flotilla “is one of many attempts to open up a humanitarian corridor and…[try] to break Israel's illegal siege on Gaza,” adding “for two months now, not a single bottle of water has entered Gaza…it's a systematic starvation of 2 million people.” The United Nations World Food Programme said this week “its warehouses are…empty; soup kitchens that are still running are severely rationing their last stocks; and what little food remains in Gaza's markets is being sold for exorbitant prices that most cannot afford.”3. Pro-Palestine activists scored a major victory in Michigan this week. The Guardian reports, “Michigan's attorney general, Dana Nessel, announced on Monday that she was dropping all charges against seven pro-[Palestine] demonstrators arrested last May at a University of Michigan encampment.” As this report notes, “The announcement came just moments before the judge was to decide on a defense motion to disqualify Nessel's office over alleged bias.” The Guardian itself published a major report “detailing Nessel's extensive personal, financial and political connections to university regents calling for the activists to be prosecuted,” last October. Defense attorney Amir Makled is quoted saying “This was a case of selective prosecution…rooted in bias, not in public safety issues…We're hoping this sends a message to other institutions locally and nationally that protest is not a crime, and dissent is not disorder.”4. In another legal victory, Prem Thakker reported on May 6th that “A federal court has [denied] the Trump administration's attempt to move Mahmoud Khalil's case…out of New Jersey.” The government attempted to move the venue to Louisiana, where they have Khalil detained. A press release by the ACLU, their New York and New Jersey affiliates, and the Center for Constitutional Rights states, “It is the fundamental job of the judiciary to stand up to…government manipulation of our basic rights. We hope the court's order sends a strong message to other courts around the country facing government attempts to shop for favorable jurisdictions by moving people detained on unconstitutional immigration charges around and making it difficult or impossible for their lawyers to know where to seek their immediate release.”5. Trump has released his budget for Fiscal Year 2026. This budget cuts nondefense spending by 23%, per Reuters, while allocating 75% of discretionary spending to military and police, per Stephen Semler of the Cost of War Project. This includes a 13% increase in military spending that tips the Pentagon budget over $1 trillion for the first time. So much for increasing government efficiency.6. At the same time, this country's infrastructure and transportation safety agencies continue to crumble. Just this week, NPR reported “Hundreds of flight delays and cancellations…[hit]… Newark Liberty International Airport at once: [due to] air traffic controller staffing shortages, aging technology, bad weather and the closure of one of the airport's busiest runways.” The air traffic controller staffing shortages, a chronic issue, has been compounded in recent months by the mass layoffs initiated by the Trump administration. NBC News reports that one air traffic controller handling Newark airspace said, “Don't fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs.”7. It might be nice to have competent, energetic leadership among the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee right about now. Unfortunately, the party opted to install 75-year-old, cancer-ridden Gerry Connolly to serve as Ranking Member on that committee instead of AOC. Now, Axios reports Connolly is stepping down from this position after just four months and will not seek reelection to his seat in Congress, citing his declining health. AOC, once-bitten, has opted not to seek the position a second time, the Hill reports. Instead, the top contenders emerging to fill Conolly's seat are Stephen Lynch, a 70-year-old Congressman who won his seat in 2001 and is currently filling Conolly's role on an interim basis, and Eleanor Holmes-Norton, the non-voting delegate representing Washington D.C. Norton is the most senior Democrat on the committee at 87-years-old, having assumed office in 1991.8. Another ghost is coming back to haunt the Democrats: former Senator Bob Menendez. The New Jersey Globe reports, “The New Jersey Attorney General's office will seek a court order to permanently bar…Menendez from ever holding public employment in the state following his conviction on federal corruption charges last year.” Critically if a Superior Court judge approves the action, Menendez could lose his state pension. Menendez still draws over $1,000 per month from his New Jersey public employee pension, even after being sentenced to 11 years in prison for corruption last July. More recently, Menendez has sought to cozy up to Trump in an effort to obtain a pardon. So far, no dice.9. In some positive news, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum continues an unbelievable run. Back in April, KJZZ reported that Mexico will invest nearly $3 billion in “food sovereignty,” to “produce more staples like corn, beans and rice in Mexico over the next five years.” This money will be directed at small and medium sized farms in Mexico and is intended to anchor both the rural economy and the nation's food supply amidst the growing uncertainty of trade with the United States vis a vis Trump's erratic trade policy. Then, after May Day, Labor Minister Marath Bolaños said that “before the end of President Claudia Sheinbaum's term…the government would gradually install a…40-hour workweek,” Mexico News Daily reports. The standard workweek in Mexico currently sits at 48 hours. As this report notes, the 40-hour workweek is Number 60 on Sheinbaum's list of 100 promises. Americans can only dream of having a government that even makes that many promises, let alone keeps them. Perhaps the most impressive of Sheinbaum's recent actions however is her recent rejection of Trump's attempt to strongarm her into allowing American troops to enter Mexico. Democracy Now! reports Sheinbaum told the American president, “The territory is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is not for sale.”10. Finally, on the other end of the presidential spectrum, there's Trump furiously posting on Truth Social about the “Movie Industry in America…DYING a very fast death,” deeming that this is “a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat,” and threatening a “100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.” Obviously, this screed is basically nonsensical and it remains to be seen what will actually come of this threat, but what is notable is the response from organized labor. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) issued a statement threading the needle between supporting Trump's effort to “return and maintain U.S. film and television jobs, while not…harming the industry overall.” On the other hand, the Teamsters – led by Sean O'Brien who has tied himself to Trump more and more since he spoke at the 2024 RNC – issued a statement “thank[ing] President Trump for boldly supporting good union jobs when others have turned their heads.” Would such a policy truly revitalize the workforce of the American entertainment industry? We'll have to wait for the sequel to find out.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe
Inner Journey with Greg Friedman shares this episode in order to promote unification across party, dogmatic and cultual divisions to stand FOR, "WE THE PEOPLE!!!!"Research suggests that it only requires 3.5% of the population to engage in non-violent resistance for these movements to be effective. Thunberg's actions and the actions of the 1968 Olympians show how it is possible, even for individuals, to make an enormous impact and inspire change.The wave of aggressive anti-protest lawsWhile the impact and influence of protests and demonstrations continue to grow, this is being met with a wave of aggressive legislative restrictions, policies and responses designed to limit their effectiveness.For example, 93% of the protests against racial injustice in the United States in the wake of the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer were peaceful; however, the narrative around the protests was that they were largely violent demonstrations and as such triggered an excessive police response.

Noted climate alarmist, Greta Thunberg, found herself in the midst of a police intervention during a rally in The Hague, Netherlands recently. On this occasion, Thunberg, along with other demonstrators, was escorted to a bus by local law enforcement. The protestors had been attempting to disrupt traffic on a significant artery leading into the city. Thunberg was part of a large assembly of advocates comprising hundreds who had gathered in solidarity for their cause. A segment consisting of roughly 100 individuals, Thunberg included, made their move to obstruct A12, the aforementioned highway. While escalating their protest, local authorities intervened leading to the detainment of Thunberg and others. Prior to her detainment, Thunberg had expressed her concerns and the urgency of the situation via a statement, albeit a tad dramatic. She highlighted the severe consequences of disregarding climate change. With an intent to motivate collective action rather than breed fear, the young activist urged not to sit idle when the potential to steer the situation towards the better exists. The highway in question has frequently been a site of mass disruption in the past months. Advocates seeking an immediate termination of all fossil fuel subsidies have repeatedly obstructed the flow of traffic, causing standstills that lasted for several hours on multiple occasions. Previous instances of detentions were met with a soft-handed approach. This typically entailed the police transporting the protestors to a separate location within the city before freeing them, anticipating that this would dissuade them from halting traffic again. The aftermath of this particular detention saw Thunberg displaying a symbol of victory, as captured in the bus that law enforcement used to transport the protestors away from the highway scene. Their determination seemed undeterred and the event was, perhaps, an acknowledgment of their relentless pursuit. Prior to the commencement of the demonstration, Extinction Rebellion, a notable campaign group, hinted that its activists intended to impede the flow of a major thoroughfare leading to The Hague. Presence of law enforcement, which included mounted police, initially thwarted this effort. Despite the authorities' attempts to maintain the status quo, a few individuals managed to break ranks and mount a sit-in protest on an alternate road. They were later detained for failing to comply with law enforcement's decree to abandon their blockade. Activists from the Extinction Rebellion movement have on numerous occasions disrupted the highway that skirts around the temporary house of the Dutch parliament in their crusade against the subsidies. Their methods have remained consistent and their dedication clear with each successive instance. At this rally, other demonstrators were visible alongside Thunberg. Their determination echoed through their chanting which was accompanied by the rhythmic waving of flags and an essential spirit of rebellion. The chorus of their collective voice was 'We are unstoppable, another world is possible.' One demonstrator's sentiment perhaps perfectly encapsulated their shared feelings. Bearing a banner that read: 'This is a dead end street,' the protestor spoke against the unwillingness to alter harmful environmental practices. In a previous confrontation with authorities in the United Kingdom, Greta was cleared of charges. She had been accused of defying a police directive to abandon a picketing effort outside an oil and gas industry convention. However, the court found no merit in the charges brought against her earlier this year in February. Greta Thunberg's advocacy for climate action has been a rallying cry for young people around the world. Her commitment to bring about active changes to address the climate crisis has unequivocally struck a chord amongst youth factions internationally. Thunberg's public dissent began outside the Swedish parliament in 2018, repetitively calling for a more proactive stand to address the climate issue. The actions and ideals she represents have since gained traction and have sparked a global youth movement to lobby for stringent measures against climate change. However, her activism has also led to numerous instances of fines and penalties. Her unyieldy commitment to civil disobedience in the face of injustice, in particular to climate change, has been met with multiple fines. Despite this, she continues to fight back bravely, underscoring her dedication. Thunberg's relentless activism and the response it generates overall put a spotlight on the pressing matter of climate change. Her ongoing encounters with the authorities continue to spark critical conversations and debates around the urgency, the resolution, and the resources required to combat the gradually intensifying global climate crisis.
