Německo chystá výraznou a významnou modernizaci armády. Detaily zveřejnil na konci října prestižní portál Politico s odkazem na třicetistránkový materiál. Vláda spolkového kancléře Friedricha Merze podle něj plánuje nákup vojenské techniky za 377 miliard eur, to je v přepočtu devět a půl bilionu korun. Co považuje Vlastislav Bříza za nejzásadnější? „Komplexnost, velikost a hloubku té restrukturalizace. Německo bude dalším státem, který bude vyzbrojen střelami Tomahawk.“

De slag om Pokrovsk is in volle gang. Het Oekraïense leger zet versterkingen in, maar stuit op zwermen Russische drones. Ondertussen weet Oekraïne Rusland nog altijd op kritieke plekken in de diepte te raken, maar de vraag blijft of Oekraïne haar felbegeerde Tomahawk-raketten nog krijgt. In het Midden-Oosten komt het gesprek op gang over een internationale stabilisatiemacht, maar daar is het laatste woord nog allerminst over gezegd. Dat en meer bespreekt Jos de Groot met generaals buiten dienst Peter van Uhm en Mart de Kruif.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Erst hat US-Präsident Trump überraschend Atomwaffentests angekündigt, dann hat er Russland und China vorgeworfen, heimlich solche Tests durchzuführen. Was von den Aussagen zu halten ist und wie Peking und Moskau darauf reagieren, fasst Kai Küstner im Gespräch mit Host Stefan Niemann zusammen. Er zeichnet auch den Zick-Zack-Kurs nach, den Trump bei der möglichen Lieferung von Tomahawk-Marschflugkörpern an die Ukraine hingelegt hat. Unterstützung in Form von Patriots bekommt das von Russland angegriffene Land aus Deutschland. Gleichzeitig will die Ukraine in Berlin ein Büro für den Export ihrer Rüstungsgüter sowie eine gemeinsame Waffenproduktion eröffnen. Weitere Themen in dieser Ausgabe von Streitkräfte und Strategien sind die Situation der Kinder in der Ukraine, die wieder aufflammende Diskussion über den neuen Wehrdienst in Deutschland und die aktuelle Lage an der Front. Vor allem in der Stadt Pokrowsk wird sie immer brenzliger für die ukrainische Armee. Kai ordnet ein, welche strategische Bedeutung Pokrowsk noch hat. Außerdem blickt er nach Mali, wo Al-Kaida-Terroristen seit Wochen gezielt Tanklaster angreifen und damit die Militärregierung sowie russische Soldaten unter gewaltigen Druck setzen. Die Bundesregierung rät Deutschen jetzt zur Ausreise aus Mali. Im Schwerpunkt dieser Folge spricht Stefan mit Julia Weigelt über die Frage, ob und unter welchen Umständen Blauhelm-Truppen der Vereinten Nationen eines Tages beim Absichern eines möglichen Waffenstillstandes in der Ukraine helfen könnten. So fern dieses Szenario heute scheinen mag - eine UN-Beteiligung würde auch dem Völkerrecht wieder zu mehr Geltung verhelfen.

SNAP Fraud Exposed: Illegal Aliens Received Billions — Trump Responds, 60 Minutes Clash & Climate Panic Fades | Corsi NationIn this episode of Corsi Nation, Dr. Jerome Corsi leads with the unfolding scandal around widespread SNAP/EBT abuse — including billions in taxpayer funds reportedly provided to illegal aliens in multiple states.USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins announces sweeping reforms to stop benefits abuse, ensure aid goes only to qualified recipients, and hold accountable the state agencies that enabled unlawful payouts.These reforms could reshape federal assistance and dramatically curb waste, fraud, and non-citizen enrollments.Reports now show that five states improperly distributed over $1.4B in Medicaid funding to non-citizens — with further investigations underway.

Spletité putování amerických střel Tomahawk na ukrajinskou oblohu pokračuje. Americký prezident Donald Trump vyloučil, že by Spojené státy poskytly Ukrajině tyto střely dlouhého doletu, o které Kyjev dlouhodobě žádá. Trump to v neděli řekl novinářům na palubě prezidentského letounu, píší tiskové agentury.Všechny díly podcastu Názory a argumenty můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

2025-11-01 | Silicon Wafers 045 | DAILY UPDATES | His Putin blown his advantage? Through his addition to war, his obsession with the erasure of Ukraine, and the relentless tricks and lying, has he turned Trump against him? Or is this merely a spat between presumptive monarchs? A tussle of tyrants? A clash of unroyal kings? This episode, Tomahawks, deterrence, and whether Putin has misplayed the long game, to his detriment, forcing Trump, against his will, to side with Ukraine to take Russia down a peg. In this episode, we're tackling the “will they / won't they” saga of U.S. Tomahawk cruise missiles for Ukraine — what it would take to get them delivered, what they could hit, and why even the debate, let alone delivery, is already shaping behaviour in Moscow. We'll track the decision timeline, decode the tech, weigh the escalation risks, and answer the bigger question: did Putin overplay his hand with Trump, forcing Washington to take harder options? ----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

We just want to know this... Why can the Chiefs continue to do the Tomahawk chop?

10.28.25 Hour 3 1:00- Caps- Katie Florio, NFL- Kyle Glaser, Commanders- Tashan Reed 17:15- The Commanders have dug themselves a big hole, can they get out of it? 31:10- Does it make you feel ANY kind of way with the Chiefs doing the tomahawk chop all game long?

Send us a textA mayoral debate that felt like a prize fight. A White House wing torn down for a 9,000-square-foot ballroom. Sanctions that squeeze Russia's oil lifeline while summits dissolve overnight. And a healthcare shock that sends families scrambling to schedule surgery before premiums explode. We pull these threads together to show how spectacle keeps crowding out strategy—and how that choice lands on everyday people.First, we take you ringside at New York City's final debate: Cuomo swinging for the knockout, Mamdani refusing to fold, and Curtis Sliwa playing the comic heel with punchlines that stick. The crowd roars, the polls barely move, and a bigger story emerges about outsiders consolidating power in America's cultural capital. Trump's name hovers over the stage—weaponized by rivals, leveraged by critics—because branding beats policy when the lights burn this bright.Then we zoom out. Sanctions hit Rosneft and Lukoil, but the messaging leaves room for quick reversal. Tomahawk missiles are denied to Ukraine under the banner of training timelines, a fig leaf for escalation fears. The war-on-drugs pivots to the Caribbean with boat strikes and covert authorities targeting Venezuela, while allies and critics wonder whether there's any doctrine beyond momentum and mood. Meanwhile, China policy swings a heavy tariff hammer at a tech-driven contest that can't be bludgeoned into submission. It's improvisation at scale—sometimes effective, often disorienting.Back home, the bulldozers arrive at the East Wing. The argument isn't about taste; it's about the meaning of the people's house. Past presidents expanded for function and safety; this remake prioritizes spectacle, privately funded and publicly symbolic. At the same time, a surprising student debt relief deal offers real wins for long-suffering borrowers—PSLF buybacks, long-overdue discharges—yet the horizon darkens as 2028 threatens core income-driven plans. And then there's the gut punch: marketplace premiums jumping an average of 18 percent as enhanced subsidies lapse, with Georgia as a hard-hit case study. Families face impossible choices, insurers warn of a spiral, and leaders rehearse the same talking points while costs outpace paychecks.If you want a clear map through the noise—how local theater reflects national power, how foreign policy whiplash hits your wallet, how symbols rewrite norms and subsidies prop up shaky systems—this is your guide. Listen, share with a friend who's doomscrolling, and leave a review to tell us where you're feeling the squeeze most. Your stories shape what we unpack next. Support the show

Let's talk about Trump, Tomahawks, corrections, and information....

In this episode of The Power Vertical Podcast, host Brian Whitmore speaks with James Sherr, Honorary Fellow at the International Center for Defense and Security in Tallinn. They unpack a week of geopolitical whiplash — from talk of U.S. Tomahawk missiles for Ukraine to sudden reversals and new sanctions on Russia. Whitmore and Sherr break down what this rollercoaster reveals about the state of the war, the shifting diplomacy around it, and Europe's evolving stance at the latest EU summit.

The Trump administration continues to focus on achieving peace in the Middle East, navigating a fragile ceasefire and defining the conditions for a Palestinian future. Meanwhile, Putin's war in Ukraine rages on, marked by stalled negotiations and continued bombardments. Both situations have proven more complex and unpredictable than the President initially hoped. Lately, Tomahawk missiles remain top of mind for President Zelensky, while Trump cancelled a proposed summit with Putin. What comes next for these two conflicts? And what can we do to ensure the good guys prevail in the end? General Jack Keane is a retired 4-star general and the former Vice Chief of Staff of the US Army. He is also the Chairman of the Institute for the Study of War, a Fox News Senior Strategic Analyst, and a member of the Secretary of Defense Policy Board. General Keane has previously advised four Defense Secretaries and was a member of the 2018 and 2022 Congressional Commission on the National Defense Strategy.

Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates. Rudyard and Janice start the show with the big news stories coming out of Gaza this week: the public executions Hamas is conducting in the Gaza strip in order to terrorize and intimidate civilians, and the Israeli government's growing concern that Hamas is breaking the ceasefire deal by not returning all of the dead hostages as agreed upon. How will rival Gaza clans thwart Hamas's attempt to cling to power? Could Gaza be on the verge of a civil war? How fast can you get a rudimentary police force to make Hamas pull back? And perhaps most importantly, who would want to go in there? Janice is optimistic that this time, at least, the Arab world is taking ownership over this problem in a way they never have before. In the second half of the show Rudyard and Janice turn to an important phone call that took place this week between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin just ahead of Zelensky's visit today to Washington, where the Ukrainian President intends to make the case for long-range Tomahawk missiles to hit targets deep inside Russia. The transfer of these weapons, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev warned this week, could lead to nuclear war. Meanwhile, Europeans have never been more scared, interpreting Russia's drone excursions into NATO territory as preparation for a larger war with the continent. Are weak European governments using the bogeyman of Russia to rally their public to distract from domestic problems and rising populism? Everybody is rolling the dice here, and when you do that there is always a chance that someone will miscalculate, and everyone will pay the heavy price.

SHOW 10-22-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR HK 1925 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT XI. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Colonel McCausland Discusses Postponed Budapest Summit, Gaza Ceasefire Instability, and Pentagon Information Control Jeff McCausland with John Batchelor Colonel McCausland explained the Budapest summit postponement, noting Putin demands Ukrainian surrender before a ceasefire. He considered Tomahawks an escalation of firepower, but not a game-changer, with delivery now on hold. McCausland described the Gaza ceasefire as precarious, lacking discussion or plan for Hamas disarmament, which he views as the necessary "red line" for stability. He criticized the Pentagon's new policy blocking journalists from soliciting unauthorized information as an attempt by Secretary Hegseth to control information flow and increase opacity. 915-930 Colonel McCausland Discusses Postponed Budapest Summit, Gaza Ceasefire Instability, and Pentagon Information Control Jeff McCausland with John Batchelor Colonel McCausland explained the Budapest summit postponement, noting Putin demands Ukrainian surrender before a ceasefire.

He noted the political turmoil in Beijing, highlighted by uncertainty over Xi Jinping's APEC attendance. This instability is abnormal and reinforces China's unstable political foundation. Yates suggested this instability should push allies to rely more on the first island chain as a reliable balance. 945-1000 Rick Fisher Reports on China's Reusable Rocket Deluge and US Moon Race Political Pressures Rick Fisher with John Batchelor Rick Fisher reported that China has 27 reusable space launch vehicle projects underway, predicting a "deluge" of cheap space services to compete with SpaceX. He noted that President Trump is alarmed that China may win the second race to the moon. Trump pressured NASA Administrator Duffy to open the Human Landing System competition to Blue Origin, signaling that politics and winning the race are paramount, regardless of competitor viability. China's first reusable booster test could occur before year-end. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Colonel Newsham Discusses Promising US-Australia Rare Earth Deal and Canberra's Dual Strategy Toward China Grant Newsham with John Batchelor Colonel Grant Newsham discussed the promising US-Australia rare earth deal, noting Australia has vast mining capabilities to provide an alternative to China's dominance. China's threat to use export controls might spur free nations to develop alternative supply chains. Newsham noted Canberra is playing a "neat trick," maintaining a firm defense alliance with the US (AUKUS) while maintaining profitable economic ties with Beijing, reflecting an underlying "softness" toward China. 1015-1030 Colonel Newsham Discusses Promising US-Australia Rare Earth Deal and Canberra's Dual Strategy Toward China Grant Newsham with John Batchelor Colonel Grant Newsham discussed the promising US-Australia rare earth deal, noting Australia has vast mining capabilities to provide an alternative to China's dominance.

Beijing aims to boost the economy via consumption, but the Chinese system is structurally built to communicate only with producers, not average consumers. Furthermore, the deflationary environment encourages people to delay purchases, waiting for lower prices. She views the Five-Year Plans mainly as an "amazing relic" used internally to motivate the sprawling government bureaucracies. 1045-1100 General Zhang Youxia Allegedly Leads PLA Purges Amid Internal CCP Power Struggle General Blaine Holt with John Batchelor General Blaine Holt reported that the purge of nine flag officers was allegedly executed by General Zhang Youxia, not Xi Jinping. Zhang, a top general, began the purges out of fear of becoming a target himself, indicating an internal "civil war" within the CCP factions opposing Xi. Zhang has secured elite military units loyal to him and the People's Liberation Army (PLA), rather than solely the Party, stabilizing the military amidst the turmoil. Zhang's life is at risk if Xi prevails.THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Peter Berkowitz Analyzes Precarious Gaza Ceasefire and Deep Internal Political Tensions in Israel Peter Berkowitz with John Batchelor Peter Berkowitz stated the Gaza ceasefire is precarious and phase one is incomplete until all deceased hostages' remains are returned, aligning with Israeli public and governmental sentiment. Hamas may be stalling negotiations to rearm. Berkowitz noted sharp internal tensions in Israel, driven by opposition to Netanyahu, resentment over judicial reform, and economic exhaustion from military service. He finds it unlikely that the peace plan, which requires Hamas disarmament, will be fully realized. 1115-1130 Peter Berkowitz Analyzes Precarious Gaza Ceasefire and Deep Internal Political Tensions in Israel Peter Berkowitz with John Batchelor Peter Berkowitz stated the Gaza ceasefire is precarious and phase one is incomplete until all deceased hostages' remains are returned, aligning with Israeli public and governmental sentiment.

They prioritize a healthy economy and law and order. Isolationism is not prominent, though they oppose excessive foreign spending. MAGA Republicanism is defined primarily by cultural issues, like anti-progressivism and concern over immigration, often outweighing economic policies like tariffs. Streeter concludes that rank and file voters are not as radical as national politics suggest. 1145-1200 GOP Voters Found More Moderate on Fiscal Issues and Driven by Cultural Anti-Progressivism, According to New Analysis Ryan Streeter with John Batchelor Ryan Streeter discussed findings showing Republican voters are more moderate than portrayed, especially on entitlement cuts.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Simon Constable Reports on Rising Commodity Prices Driven by Data Center Demand and European Political Turmoil Simon Constable with John Batchelor Simon Constable reported significant commodity price increases (copper up 14%, gold up 48%), driven by demand for data centers and AI. He criticized European reluctance to build needed data centers, stressing their necessity for the digital future. Constable noted President Macron fears Marine Le Pen's National Rally due to growing support stemming from concerns over unfettered immigration. He also criticized the UK Labour party's plan to tax professionals like dentists and doctors, predicting they will leave the country. 1215-1230 Simon Constable Reports on Rising Commodity Prices Driven by Data Center Demand and European Political Turmoil Simon Constable with John Batchelor Simon Constable reported significant commodity price increases (copper up 14%, gold up 48%), driven by demand for data centers and AI.

He called the Artemis plan an "unwieldy management disaster" designed haphazardly to give the SLS rocket a mission. The political push to beat China by 2028 creates a dangerous "one-time stunt." Zimmerman argues the private sector (SpaceX) is the real future of US space endeavors. 1245-100 AM Bob Zimmerman Criticizes NASA's Artemis Lunar Program as a "Management Disaster" Focused on Beating China Bob Zimmerman with John Batchelor Bob Zimmerman criticized NASA interim administrator Sean Duffy for focusing on SpaceX being "behind schedule," distracting from NASA's own delay of the Artemis mission to 2028 at the earliest.

In the last week, Volodymyr Zelensky failed to secure long-range Tomahawk missiles from Donald Trump during a reportendly heated meeting. Then, a planned summit in Budapest between the US and Russian presidents was called off by Trump who said it would have been a ‘waste of time'.But, the White House has now increased the pressure on the Kremlin announcing sanctions on Russia's two largest oil companies, a first for the Trump administration since his return to office. But will these sanctions be enough to push Putin to the negotiating table? Or will the Kremlin see them as an escalation? And as European leaders join Zelensky in insisting that any talks on ending the war in Ukraine should start with freezing the current front line, how should we interpret the Ukrainian leader's language?To answer your questions, Lucy and Vitaly are joined by the BBC's Europe Digital Editor Paul Kirby and senior digital journalist Laura Gozzi. The team also discuss the EU's plan for using frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine and what, if anything, Ukraine is doing to combat propaganda within Russia.Today's episode is presented by Lucy Hockings and Vitaly Shevchenko.

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the US has been trying to figure out the appropriate level of involvement. Tomahawk Missiles would be quite the game-changer for this cyclical conversation.Join the Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/PeterZeihanFull Newsletter: https://bit.ly/4ol8C2C

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Senior Fellow Eric Columbus, Ukraine Fellow Anastasiia Lapatina, and Public Service Fellow Loren Voss to talk through the week's big news in national security, including:“Visiting Concessions.” President Trump once again turned his focus to the conflict in Ukraine, announcing last week that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin would be meeting to discuss the conflict in Budapest—though it's not clear Putin has agreed. This occurred just days before a planned visit to the White House by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, where Trump reportedly pressured him to make territorial concessions requested by Putin in exchange for an end to the conflict and failed to respond affirmatively to his requests for Tomahawk missiles and U.S. security commitments. Is this a real shift in the U.S. position? And what might it mean for the broader conflict?“Posse ComiSCOTUS.” After months of litigation in the lower courts, the Trump administration has finally gone to the Supreme Court regarding the legality of its domestic military deployments, seeking a stay on an injunction on its planned deployment to Chicago that was recently left in place by the Seventh Circuit. How big a decision point is this in terms of the legal authorities around domestic military deployments? And how does the Court seem poised to rule?“Material Contort.” Just weeks after designating ANTIFA a “domestic terrorism organization,” the Trump administration has brought its first set of related criminal charges, relating to a July event at a Texas immigration detention facility that left one police officer shot in the neck. The indictment includes charges under the material support for terrorism statute—but probably not the one you're thinking of. How much does the indictment stretch the usual use of these statutes? And what does it tell us about the Trump administration's anti-ANTIFA campaign?In object lessons, Loren thinks we should play more and recommends Wayside Farm for a pumpkin-picking, maize-mazing good time. Eric thinks we should get cozy more with a second-skin, chambray-shirt classic. Scott thinks we should reflect more with a majorly-meditative, lightlessly-enlightening retreat. And Nastya thinks we should read more with eloquent-essayist Zadie Smith's cultural commentary, “Feel Free.” To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

SHOW  10-20-25 1965 GAZA POWS  CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE GAZA CEASEFIRE... FIRST HOUR 9-915 Regional Powers React to Tenuous Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Deal. Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani discuss how the Gaza agreement is viewed regionally as a tenuous ceasefire and hostage deal, not a path to peace. Saudi Arabia was displeased, seeking a long-term Palestinian state solution. Egypt supported the quiet to prevent domestic instability and refugee influx. Conversely, Qatar and Turkey championed the ceasefire because they are invested in Hamas and want its political and military structure to survive. 915-930 Regional Powers React to Tenuous Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Deal.

Charles Burton and Gordon Chang discuss how China expelled eight senior generals, signaling a severe internal crisis and lack of confidence in Xi Jinping's leadership, potentially orchestrated by his adversaries. This turmoil suggests foreign governments should interact carefully with Xi. Economically, figures show industrial production outpacing consumption, and proposals for mandated municipal consumption goals reflect a state struggling to maintain prosperity, leading to pervasive gloom among the people. 945-1000 China's Military Purge Signals Deep Crisis of Confidence in Xi Jinping.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 US-Ukraine Summit Yields No Tomahawk Commitment; Focus on Attrition. John Hardie and Bill Roggio discuss how reports suggest President Trump pressed Zelensky to agree to a ceasefire based on Russian territorial demands, though no commitment was made on providing Tomahawk missiles. Tomahawks would provide Ukraine with a highly useful long-range strike capability but would not be a "wonder weapon." With Russia holding a material advantage, Ukraine's best strategy is exhausting Russia's offensive potential by inflicting disproportionate attrition, independent of Trump's softening support. 1015-1030 US-Ukraine Summit Yields No Tomahawk Commitment; Focus on Attrition.

David Daoud and Bill Roggio discuss how the Gaza ceasefire was violated when Hamas killed Israeli soldiers, prompting Israeli retaliation to reinforce red lines without restarting the conflict entirely. Hamas is deliberately slowing the return of dead hostages to stabilize the ceasefire internationally. In Gaza, Hamas immediately began cracking down on rivals to reassert its dominance and prevent others from filling the power vacuum left by IDF withdrawals, signaling it remains the top power. 1045-1100 Gaza Ceasefire Interrupted by Violence; Hamas Reasserts Dominance.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Houthis Maintain Threat Despite Gaza Ceasefire; New Military Chief Named. Bridget Toomey and Bill Roggio discuss how the Houthis have paused attacks in line with the Gaza ceasefire but remain capable and intent on striking Israel or the Red Sea if fighting resumes. They announced the death of strategic planner and Chief of Staff Muhammad al-Ghamari, who was killed by Israel. His replacement, Yusef al-Madani, is believed to have close ties and training with Iran. The Houthi core mission, driven by perpetual animosity toward America and Israel, remains unchanged. 1115-1130 Tomahawk Missile Threat Puts Pressure on Putin's Air Defenses. Rebecca Grant and Gordon Chang discuss how Russia is highly anxious about the possible deployment of US Tomahawk land-attack missiles to Ukraine. Tomahawks, with a 1,600-mile range, can fly low and strike over 60 Russian air bases and critical energy targets. Experts say the weapon presents an "almost unsolvable air defense problem" for Russia because Putin lacks sufficient air defense systems, like the S-400, to protect such a wide area. 1130-1145 US Pressure on Venezuela/Colombia Narco-States Splits Latin American Left. Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss how the US military is ramping up pressure on narco-terrorism gangs operating out of Venezuela and Colombia, causing nervousness in the Maduro regime. Trump openly attacked Maduro's key ally, Colombian President Petro, calling him an accomplice and threatening to cut aid and raise tariffs. The Venezuelan opposition is heartened, believing Maduro's fall will expose deep drug-related corruption linking members of the São Paulo Forum across the continent. 1145-1200 US Pressure on Venezuela/Colombia Narco-States Splits Latin American Left.

The Venezuelan opposition is heartened, believing Maduro's fall will expose deep drug-related corruption linking members of the São Paulo Forum across the continent. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 China Dominates Ukraine's Drone Supply Chain Despite Export Controls. Jack Burnham discusses how Ukraine's survival relies on its ability to produce up to 200,000 FPV drones monthly. However, 97% of Ukrainian drone producers source primary components, including rare earths for engines and chips, from China. Despite China imposing export controls on finished drones, smaller components are circumvented and supplied to both Ukraine and Russia. Finding alternative, self-reliant supply chains, potentially through US allies like Taiwan, is crucial for Kyiv. 1215-1230 China's Economic Woes and Rare Earth Export Controls Raise Global Alarms. Elaine Dezenski discusses how the US Treasury Secretary remarked that China's worrying economic fundamentals—including high debt and youth unemployment—are leading Beijing to use tactics like rare earth export controls to undermine the global economy. China acts as a "non-market player" using subsidies and forced labor, which corrodes the free market. Experts suggest the US must acknowledge these non-market practices and push for transparency and adherence to new, strict global trade rules. 1230-1245 Iran Trash-Talks Trump; Nuclear Ambitions Become More Overt. Jonathan Sayeh and Bill Roggio discuss how Iran's Supreme Leader publicly rejected Trump's appeals for negotiations, a move primarily aimed at boosting domestic morale following regional setbacks. However, a top nuclear scientist overtly claimed Iran has the capacity to build a nuclear bomb, suggesting weaponization ambitions are becoming less covert. Tehran views its regional position as a lose-lose scenario but uses the Gaza ceasefire as a critical breathing room opportunity to rearm its weakened proxies. 1245-100 AM Hamas Cracks Down on Rival Clans in Gaza Post-Ceasefire. Ahmad Sharawi and Bill Roggio discuss how following the Gaza ceasefire, Hamas cracked down on rival clans and militias, like the Dughmush clan, to reassert its dominance. Hamas labeled the Dughmush clan, known for smuggling and past criminal activity, as Israeli collaborators. Anti-Hamas groups, including former PA security forces, are vastly outnumbered and less capable than Hamas, which remains the strongest faction in Gaza and uses these executions to deter future competition.

Rebecca Grant and Gordon Chang discuss how Russia is highly anxious about the possible deployment of US Tomahawk land-attack missiles to Ukraine.

Tomahawk Missiles Would Extend Ukraine's Range but Are Not a Wonder Weapon. John Hardie discusses the possibility of supplying Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. Hardie argues that the Tomahawk would extend Ukraine's range beyond existing Western missiles and packs more power than Ukraine's domestically produced drones. It is also noted as being a more capable missile that is harder to shoot down than current Ukrainian long-range systems. Hardie supports enhancing Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities, but cautions that the Tomahawk is not a "wonder weapon" that will turn the tide of the war. Practical and stockpile considerations for the United States, as well as alternative missile options, are also relevant. 1957

US May Permit Europe to Supply Tomahawk Cruise Missiles to Kyiv. Rebecca Grant of the Lexington Institute comments on the talk that the United States may permit Europe to supply Tomahawk cruise missiles to Kyiv. Grant discusses the Tomahawk's capabilities, noting that while Ukraine uses its own drones, they have shorter range and smaller warhead size compared to weapons already present, such as ATACMS and the British Storm Shadow. Grant states that the Tomahawk is the "missile of choice." If the strategic intent is to pressure Russia through attacks on its energy infrastructure—as Ukraine has been doing—Grant believes that the Tomahawk is the best tactical fit for achieving that objective.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:   Israel has launched new airstrikes in Gaza, accusing Hamas of a “bold violation” of the Trump-brokered ceasefire. We'll break down what triggered the strikes—and what it means for the fragile truce.   President Trump remains non-committal on sending Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, even as the White House announces another summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin—this time in Budapest.   And after a week of cross-border fighting, Pakistan and Afghanistan have agreed to a new ceasefire.   And in today's Back of the Brief—we'll turn to a story that hasn't been getting nearly enough attention. Historic flooding has torn through remote Alaskan communities, destroying homes and forcing hundreds to evacuate.   To listen to the show ad-free, become a premium member of The President's Daily Brief by visiting https://PDBPremium.com.Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of The President's Daily Brief.

Today's Headlines: About 7 million Americans joined No Kings marches across all 50 states — no arrests, no chaos — but Trump responded with an AI video of himself flying over protesters and pooping on them. He also commuted George Santos's sentence after 84 days, freeing him straight back to society. Meanwhile, the 19-day government shutdown drags on, freezing courts and doubling insurance premiums as the fight over Obamacare subsidies expires. ICE amps up surveillance with new spyware contracts to track faces and phones without warrants — and even ticketing legal residents for not carrying papers. ProPublica found 170+ U.S. citizens detained by ICE, some pregnant, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem just bought $172M in private jets “for safety.” Elsewhere, five top universities rejected Trump's shady funding deal, the White House partnered with EMD Serono for IVF drugs at an 84% discount, and California's CalRx will sell insulin for $11 a pen. In Florida, whooping cough cases jumped 81% after vaccination rates collapsed. Overseas, Trump's meeting with Zelensky fell apart, the Gaza ceasefire collapsed, and Trump's strike on a Venezuelan boat led Colombia to accuse the U.S. of murder. Prince Andrew gave up his royal titles amid new Epstein revelations — and thieves stole the French crown jewels in four minutes flat.

Day 1,335.Today, as the world digests the outcome of the White House meeting between Presidents Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky, we examine why the lack of progress on Tomahawk missiles caught many observers off guard. We also explore the significance – if any – of Trump's planned talks with Vladimir Putin in Budapest, widely seen as part of the Kremlin's strategy to stall for time. Plus, we report on another slow weekend at the front, continued Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil and gas facilities, and hear from a leading professor on what it would take to achieve a genuine breakthrough in peace negotiations.Contributors:Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.With thanks to Professor Robert Person (Non-Resident Senior Fellow in the Foreign Policy Research Institute's Eurasia Program). @RTPerson3 on X.MORE TICKETS JUST RELEASED FOR 'UKRAINE: THE LATEST' LIVE, IN-PERSON:Join us for an in-person discussion and Q&A at the distinguished Honourable Artillery Company in London on 22nd October starting at 7pm.Our panel includes General Sir Richard Barrons, former head of UK Joint Forces Command and latterly one of the authors of Britain's Strategic Defence Review, and Orysia Lutsevych, head of the Ukraine Forum at the Chatham House think tank.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to dissect Trump's euphoric “victory tour” of the Middle East, where he cast himself as a global peacemaker while ignoring protests and chaos at home. Wolff unpacks Trump's boastful talk of “Tomahawks for peace,” and the widening rift between Trump and his MAGA base. Both wonder why the “no kings” protests aren't aimed at Epstein and the powerful men who enabled him. As his self-image balloons beyond control, Joanna and Michael ask: has Trump's triumphalism become its own form of delusion? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

President Trump has said he expects to meet Vladimir Putin in Hungary "within two weeks" after holding what he described as a "very productive" phone call with the Russian leader.

P.M. Edition for Oct. 17. In recent weeks, President Trump has been tiptoeing away from some of the tariffs that underpin his signature trade policy, saying reciprocal tariffs don't apply to dozens of different products.
