In this exclusive interview with Jimmy, former Trump stalwart Marjorie Taylor Greene calls the President a "traitor" for betraying his "no more foreign wars" promise and covering up the Epstein files to protect his friends. She also condemns his foreign beef import plan as a "slap in the face" to American ranchers, accusing him of putting corporate interests and Israel ahead of the American people.  The fallout began when Trump launched the Iran war and escalated after Greene publicly demanded the release of the Epstein files, leading Trump to call her "Marjorie 'Traitor' Greene". She argues that neither party represents working Americans, pointing to $40 trillion in debt and the H-1B visa program as examples of how Congress works for lobbyists, not the people. Plus segments on why Trump's new sanctions on Iran are doomed to fail and Andrew Wilson's epic flip-flop on questioning the FBI's story about who killed Charlie Kirk. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

It turns out running a poll to ask Twitter whether Ben Wallace should be prosecuted for treason is perhaps not savvy politics.Zia Yusuf. the Reform home affairs spokesman has today been slapped down by his leader Nigel Farage for labelling the former Tory defence secretary a "traitor" for allowing thousands of Afghans into the country. Farage has said the language is "over the top" and that Yusuf will be getting a "ticking off". A poll today has Reform at their lowest since the 2024 general election. Are Reform crashing out hard? Why is it that after getting so much right - it now seems like they are getting everything wrong?Later, comedian and host of the Screen Rot podcast Jacob Hawley has been campaigning to save the high street for years. Today, Andy Burnham announced plans to stop rogue vape shops, barbers and confectionary stores from popping up all over the place. Did he nick the idea from Jacob's podcast? Jacob is on tour this autumn with a new show, 'Fighting Age Man'.The News Agents is a Global Production.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

Host Matt Trump powers through a technically cursed evening (broken mic cord, dead camera, "wading through mud" all week) to deliver part three of his summer abroad walking tour as the self-styled Rick Steves of Badlands. After a detour on reactivating a decade-old Facebook account and how he tries to explain his politics to liberal friends, he crosses the Thames to the Tower of London and its Norman builders. The through line is a provocative analogy: the Norman Conquest of 1066, in which a small ruling class dominated England without replacing its people, framed as a template for how he views globalist or "deep state" control of modern America. Expect the White Tower, Traitor's Gate, the scaffold site, a Robin Hood tie-in, a space-alien thought experiment, and a Federal Reserve comparison, all wrapped in his usual history-meets-geopolitics musing. The Romans built the bridge; the Normans, he argues, still run the place.

Host Greta Johnsen starts a month-long miniseries for the 87% club with an interview with author Veronica Roth. She's written more than a dozen books, most notably the Divergent series.Her latest book is called Seek the Traitor's Son (print | audio), a book that she approached very differently from her other projects. Here's what she says about it in the acknowledgements:“I started writing this book almost six years ago with no intention of publishing it. I had it in my head that a book that made all the pleasure centers of my brain fire at once just couldn't be a serious project. But when I told two of my friends about it, they pointed out that there was no reason that should be the case. The world is too dark, and life is too short, to spend it resisting things that bring you joy. So why not write a big, romantic, indulgent, genre-straddling story?” This conversation perfectly embodies many of the questions that define the 87 percent club -- What if work was also fun? What if I could stop caring about what other people think? How can I turn down those critical voices in my head?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. I remember this advice from decade ago"If you want to become a storyteller, tell stories. If you want to become a better storyteller, tell more stories." But what's a good story? A good story starts here: you have a treasure trove of lived experience memories. Are they all worthy of blossoming into well-crafted meaningful stories captivating to your listeners? How will you know unless you begin?       The point is you have a brain, an imagination, and more than reasonable ability to begin transforming those lived experience memories into storytelling magic. Take a course. Get a coach. Invest in your desire to see what you are capable of creating. You can do all three with me. Email me for an no-obligation Discovery Chat!   Here's what I believe: When someone comes to me with a story they need to tell, they are bringing me something they've been processing, shaping, and trying to make sense of—possibly for decades. The story is already there. It has been there the whole time. My job—as witness, as story doula—is not to give you a story. It is to help you find the one you are already living.  Let's have a no-obligation Discovery Chat. Meanwhile, the very best use of your time might be spent as a spy to your life, as Don Murray wrote: "I am a spy to my life, maintaining an alertness to the commonplace, the ordinary, the routine where the really important stories appear. I am never bored. I overhear what is said and not said, delight in irony and contradiction, relish answers without questions and questions without answers, take note of what is and what should be, what was & may be. I imagine, speculate, make believe, remember, reflect. I am always traitor to the predictable, always welcoming to the unexpected....." [Don Murray, Pulitzer-prize winning American journalist & English professor]     Story Prompt: We read the work of others so that we can say, "Look here! We're not the only ones.” What memories and sensations came alive in you when you heard Don Murray's words? Write that story and share it out loud!    You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, subscribe & spread this episode  with a generous 5-star review & comment—it helps us all—& join us next time!

I spoke to Yanis Varoufakis, economist and former Greek finance minister, at Web3 Summit in Berlin on June 18th, 2026, about why he thinks blockchain is one of the few tools left that can actually pull power away from Big Tech and the banks. Truly a privilege that I had the chance to speak with him on such a stage.We dig into his concept of techno-feudalism and cloud capital, his monetary commons proposal for a transparent monetary system that could undercut private banks, and the digital wallet system he tried to build for Greece during the crisis.

Goodison Heartbreak, Barkley Magic, Freaky Bellingham & Taking the Gamble: Bolton's Richie Kyle. Ahead of Everton's pre-season friendly against Bolton Wanderers on Saturday, July 25, Connor O'Neill sits down for a candid, wide-ranging chat with Scouser, lifelong Toffee, and Bolton Assistant Manager Richie Kyle!

Divided Loyalties: Richie takes us behind the scenes of Luton Town's historic first-ever Premier League victory at Goodison Park—and reveals why his friends and family jokingly branded him a "traitor" when he celebrated a Luton goal against his boyhood club! The Magic of Ross Barkley: High praise for the former Everton midfielder during their time together at Luton, with Richie describing him as one of the best players he has ever coached.

The novelist Graham Greene ranks at number 6 on Tim Shipman's infamous Best Spy Writers list — and yet we haven't given him enough airtime on the podcast. Time to put that right. Graham Greene didn't just write about spies — spying was the family business. His uncle founded Naval Intelligence. His sister recruited him into SIS. And Greene himself walked out of the Service the day before D-Day. Why? The answer may involve his boss and drinking companion: Kim Philby. Guest host Matt Hurst debriefs Professor Kevin Ruane — Greene scholar and Director of the Graham Greene International Festival — on the novelist's secret double life. In this episode: The Greene family spy business: an uncle in Naval Intelligence, a sister in SIS, a brother running black ops in Malaya, and another spying for three countries at once (badly) Why Greene quit SIS on the eve of D-Day — and the Philby theory "Recreational espionage": how Greene's letters reveal decades of meetings with "the old firm" before trips to Vienna, Cuba, Poland and Vietnam The Quiet American: the 1955 novel that predicted the Vietnam War, and why journalists like David Halberstam and Neil Sheehan carried it in their knapsacks Was Greene spying in Vietnam? The "Catholic solution" and the hunt for a third force The 1958 film Greene called a travesty — and his fan letter to Sean Connery for a remake that never happened Greene vs le Carré: the endorsement that made le Carré's name, and the letter that said "you're not my friend" Why Greene would love Slow Horses This is the first of what we hope will be many episodes exploring the great spy novelists — subscribe to Spybrary so you don't miss what's coming. The Graham Greene International Festival runs 24-27 September in Berkhamsted, UK — 30 minutes from London Euston. Spy highlights include Ben Brown's play A Splinter of Ice, Robert Verkaik on The Writer and the Traitor, and le Carré biographer Adam Sisman on Greene and le Carré.

Josephus is our single most important source for the final decades of the Second Temple period. He was a former Jewish commander who surrendered to the Romans and later became a writer in the court of the Flavian emperors. Josephus wrote important books about the Jewish revolt, Jewish history, and Judaism that we still have today.But can his account be trusted? Was Josephus a careful historian preserving the past, a political propagandist serving Rome, or something far more complicated?

Andrea Wulf was born in India to German parents, grew up in Hamburg, and became a writer through pure serendipity... She has since become one of the finest narrative historians today: The Brother Gardeners, Founding Gardeners, Chasing Venus, then The Invention of Nature, her life of Alexander von Humboldt, which won fifteen international awards including the Costa Biography Award, the Royal Society Science Book Prize and the LA Times Book Prize, followed by Magnificent Rebels and now her new book, and the subject of our interview today, The Traveler, which brings alive George Forster, the man Humboldt himself credited with making him an explorer, and the most open mind of the 18th century.Link To 'The Traveler'Link To 'Curious Worldview Substack'Leave a review on Apple or Spotify (nothing does more to help grow the show)It's an enormous pleasure to have spoken with Andrea, we discussed...Fernweh — the German word for the ache for the distance, and why it's Andrea's "main condition of being"Living voyeuristically through the subjects of her books, and why she had to write about a traveller again after Magnificent Rebels in the pandemicWho was George Forster: the wunderkind who taught himself to read off book spines, was a working botanist on a Russian expedition at ten, and translated a Russian history book into English at twelve.Why Forster was unique among explorers: Columbus's "green" and "naked" vs Forster painting Antarctica in blue, purple and greenDying at thirty-nine in disgrace — written out of history in Germany as a traitor, in Britain as a critic of empire — and the East German rediscovery of the 1950sJames Cook's moral ledger: firearms as display of power, even-handed punishment of crew and islanders, the property concept he couldn't see past, and his genius as navigator and scientistForster and religion: what he actually grasped of Māori and Tahitian cosmology, the Lutheran upbringing, the Rosicrucian detour, and the Bible as "a book of oriental fantasy"Serendipity: the borrowed London house that made her a writerCurious Worldview (catalogue connections to this ep)The Fernweh thread — the ache for the distance that opens this episode is the same force behind Tim Cope's 10,000km ride in the shadow of Genghis Khan, Robyn Davidson's camel trek and life of nomadism, Colin Thubron's half-century of crossing borders, Levison Wood's life in adventure and Chris Arnade walking the world.Why we travel at all — Andrea's distinction between slow travel in an explorer's footsteps and photo-stop tourism picks up exactly where Ash Bhardwaj's 'Why We Travel' left off.The forgotten traveller — Forster joins James Holman, the Blind Traveller, in the catalogue's gallery of history's misplaced adventurers, from the Bryan Bashin episode.The great explorers — Cook, Columbus and the moral spectrum of the age of exploration, ground first surveyed with Scott Rank on the great and famous explorers of history.Colonial reckoning — Cook's contested legacy and the darkness Forster's attitude shines out of run straight back to Adam Hochschild on King Leopold's Ghost and Tim Butcher's Blood River journey through the Congo.Narrative non-fiction masters — Andrea name-checked alongside David Grann, the GOAT of narrative non-fiction, in the conversation itself.The serendipity question — asked now some 300 times, a thread first unspooled with Christian Busch on inviting serendipity into your life.Timestamps...00:00 — Fernweh: the ache for the distance, the word that opens the episode and defines her whole career02:37 — Living voyeuristically through her subjects; writing Magnificent Rebels during the pandemic; why she had to return to a traveller09:41 — Why Forster was unique: Columbus who could only say "green" and "naked" vs the storyteller who painted Antarctica in colour; neither idealising (Rousseau) nor demonising13:34 — The six weeks that changed him: Dusky Sound's "art and industry to these savages" to Queen Charlotte Sound's "we bring death and disease"15:48 — Dead at 39, a traitor; written out of history in Germany and Britain; the East German rediscovery20:15 — The Humboldt imprint: A Voyage Round the World, the 1790 journey through Europe, shovelling sand in revolutionary Paris23:33 — Cook's morality: firearms, even-handed punishment, what Cook couldn't see about Tahitian property that Forster could31:09 — Science aboard an imperial expedition; the real treasure Forster brought home: all humans are one species36:53 — The wunderkind: a working botanist at ten, translating Russian history into English at twelve40:00 — The breadfruit deduction: seedless trees to a correct theory of Polynesian migration43:43 — Forster and religion: what he actually understood of the Māori cosmos, the Rosicrucian years, the Bible as "oriental fantasy"48:27 — Do modern explorers exist?

Book by Wayne Barnes - A Traitor in the FBI: The Hunt for a Russian Mole https://a.co/d/06Of9Cta  

With the French now helping the U.S. in its fight for independence, the tide's turned against Britain. But disillusioned American hero Benedict Arnold is about to help the British Empire strike back.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Leda and Qassss have now met cell, and it's up to the team to figure out who might turn them over to the Hegemony before it's too late.  But first, they'll need to figure out what might turn a rebel into a traitor.

When you "pull a Benedict Arnold," you sell out your side to join the stronger side of a situation out of fear, not honor. Needless to say, that's not a compliment. More than 230 years after America secured independence from Britain, this skilled warrior and confidante of George Washington is remembered as a traitor and coward for defecting to the British side. But it's not that easy. The Revolution was a chaotic time. Some say America was in its first Civil War, when dangers greater than the British threatened our fledgling government. Congress was in constant battle with the military and feelings ran high over whether power should reside in the states or the federal government. And it took a toll on the men who fought this bloody and protracted war. Leadership was often ineffective, greed was rampant, and militias fought without pay, few provisions, and little training. Family farms were looted and destroyed, the economy collapsed, and the Native Americans usually fought for the British. Benedict Arnold was a traitor to his country, fighting against friends and former comrades. He was impetuous and quick to anger. He also fought valiantly for the Revolution, often turning the tide toward America in decisive battles. Yet, he got little respect, less pay, and was a target of a politicized Congress. Is it time to take another look at Benedict Arnold and the Revolution that birthed America?

In Episode 228, Sarah, Catherine (@GilmoreGuide), and Chrissie (@ChrissieWhitley) take stock of the reading year so far, discussing the books, publishing trends, and industry chatter that have defined the first half of 2026. They dive into the biggest publishing stories of the year, the rise of "cozy everything," the continued influence of self-publishing and book-to-screen success stories, and whether it's possible to tap a Book of the Year before the second half of the publishing calendar arrives. Then, they share their Top 5 Books of 2026 So Far and a few disappointing reads that didn't quite live up to expectations.

Today's Headlines: Oh boy, what a weekend! Trump deployed the National Guard to the reflecting pool, where they arrested a 67-year-old former Olympic cyclist who stopped during a bike ride and touched the water to feel the liner — charging him with destruction of government property. Trump posted that "multiple individuals" were arrested for vandalism and threatened "years in jail." The algae situation is now worse than ever, and we now know that the no-bid contract was awarded to a company owned by a Trump donor and Mar-a-Lago member named John Cafaro whose firm Greenwater Services was clearly not equipped for the job. Trump also got into a feud with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni after claiming she "begged" him for a photo at the G7, which Italy responded to by canceling a planned state visit and Meloni posting a video saying "Italy and I do not beg," and Trump doubled down anyway. He also posted a photo of a random woman captioned "great daughter, my honor!!" who turned out to be a Clinton-era businesswoman whose actual daughter is the chairwoman of the Manhattan Republican Party. On the war beat, less than a day after signing the memorandum of understanding, US intelligence warned Trump that Netanyahu would likely undermine the deal — which he immediately did by continuing strikes in Lebanon, prompting Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz again. JD Vance made it to Switzerland for negotiations on Sunday with Tweedles Dee & Dum (Kushner & Witkoff), and Trump promptly torpedoed the meeting by posting threats of "harder strikes" against Iran while it was actively happening, causing Iran to walk out and demand an apology. As of Sunday night talks were back on, and Trump announced that if everything falls apart he's blaming JD Vance. The Pentagon also told Congress it needs $80 billion to cover the cost of the Iran war and replenish depleted ammunition supplies, Republicans need 60 Senate votes to pass it, and it's not looking great. Meanwhile, the Qatar-gifted $400 million plane has completed modifications and is ready to join Trump's Air Force One rotation, and the DOJ refused in a court filing to put in writing that they won't create the Traitor Fund, calling a written promise "unnecessary" because they already said so verbally, which is exactly what someone planning to do it anyway would say.

Today's Headlines: The fate of the Traitor Fund remains unknown — Blanche said they're dropping it but won't put it in writing, Trump said he loves it but "ask the lawyers," Senate Democrats tried to force a vote to block it and Republicans voted against the block anyway, and January 6th defendants are already filing claims — while what is confirmed is that Trump is still getting permanent IRS audit immunity for himself and his family regardless. Meanwhile, Trump is officially nominating Todd Blanche — his personal criminal defense attorney — as permanent Attorney General, while Bill Pulte, the family friend with no intelligence experience named as acting DNI, is already being phased out with Trump hinting he'll be tasked with investigating whether past elections were rigged. In slightly more satisfying news, Trump's name is officially coming off the Kennedy Center less than a week after a judge ordered it — off the facade, out of email signatures, and off employee ID cards. In other news, John Bolton pleaded guilty to illegally retaining classified national security documents after Iranian hackers breached his email, agreeing to pay over $2 million with up to 60 months in prison — less revenge prosecution, more bad judgment. And now that Congress is back to work, the House passed a measure cutting food aid for over 5 million pregnant women and children, great. In war updates, Israel and Lebanon announced a ceasefire that Hezbollah immediately rejected because it would ban their operatives from parts of their own country with no maps or implementation details. And finally, a flesh-eating New World screwworm — not seen in US livestock for 60 years — was found in a Texas calf, with quarantines now in place, which is bad timing for beef prices already at record highs.

Today's Headlines: The Traitor Fund is effectively dead for now — the DOJ said it "disagrees strongly" but will abide by the court's ruling, which is the closest thing to a clean win we've gotten in a while. Trump's America 250 birthday celebration continues to implode, with a competing Power to the People Festival announced for October 3rd featuring Springsteen, Joan Baez, and Dave Matthews, while the UFC fight at the White House is still on but now requires attending service members to meet a waist-to-height ratio under .55, and the National Park Service is spending $5 million on a no-bid contract to gold-plate four bronze horse statues near the Lincoln Memorial, which is giving Saddam Hussein's living room. Trump reportedly told Netanyahu on a bad phone call that "you're fucking crazy, you'd be in prison if it weren't for me, everybody hates Israel because of this" — accurate — and Netanyahu pulled back on planned Beirut strikes, with Lebanon's parliament speaker saying Hezbollah is ready for a full ceasefire with Israel, though the US bombed Iranian drone sites yesterday and a cargo ship was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, so "ceasefire" continues to mean whatever anyone needs it to mean. Florida's attorney general sued OpenAI and Sam Altman for marketing ChatGPT without adequately warning of its dangers, citing its alleged role in mass shootings, suicide encouragement, and helping a murder suspect dispose of bodies — and Anthropic filed its IPO the same day at a $965 billion valuation, because timing is everything. And finally, a second man named Dan Sullivan entered the Alaska Senate race against incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan with no policies and no party affiliation, just a stated goal of unseating the other Dan Sullivan, which is either a Democratic ploy or the most chaotic campaign launch of the cycle.

Today's Headlines: Trump had a rough weekend legally — a federal judge blocked the Traitor Fund in response to a lawsuit from a fired January 6th prosecutor, and another judge ordered Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Center within two weeks on the grounds that he never had legal authority to put it there. Trump responded by posting he has "no interest" in the Kennedy Center anymore and threatening to cancel his own America 250 celebration, which is already in freefall after nearly every performer dropped out once they realized it was Trump's birthday rally and not the legitimate congressional celebration — leaving Vanilla Ice, Kid Rock, and eventually Trump himself as the headline act for anyone who paid $1.5 million for a VIP package expecting a concert. On the Iran beat, Trump is requesting edits to the deal his own negotiators already agreed to, with a senior official explaining the response will take three days because…caves. The Delaney Hall ICE detention center in Newark escalated to a mandatory curfew for the surrounding half-mile, with ICE in riot gear pepper spraying protesters while detainees continue a 10-day hunger strike over conditions that remain uncorrected. Pam Bondi's Epstein testimony was exactly as useless as expected — she blamed Todd Blanche, refused to answer Trump-related questions, and wasn't under oath — so the House Oversight Committee is now going after Blanche directly. In AI-is-a-scam news, a Pizza Hut franchisee is suing corporate for $100 million after a mandatory AI rollout tanked delivery times, and Starbucks scrapped its AI inventory system after nine months because it could not count milk — hallucinating bottles that weren't there — which is a real thing that happened with technology that costs more than a person with eyes. And finally, a three-foot meteorite may have landed in Cape Cod Bay on Saturday, with a double boom heard from Delaware to Montreal, which would normally be bigger news if we had any remaining capacity for surprise.

Today's Headlines: The Department of Homeland Security is threatening to cut customs staffing at major international airports in sanctuary cities like New York, LA, Chicago, and DC — which would affect not just tourism but cargo shipments and the broader economy — because DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin apparently thinks international trade can just reroute to Florida. Trump, meanwhile, said he's "in no hurry" to end the Iran war while also telling reporters he might skip his own son's destination wedding in the Bahamas because of "this thing called Iran," which is either a convenient excuse or the most relatable thing he's ever said. The Traitor Fund — formerly known as Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund — is getting wilder by the day: Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio wants $2-5 million, Mike Lindell is asking for $400 million, a January 6th rioter who compared herself to Jesus during sentencing wants $10 million, George Santos might file, and the couple who pointed guns at BLM protesters is reportedly interested. Acting AG Todd Blanche went to Congress to lobby Republicans not to block the fund — and offered to cut them in on it, specifically noting that senators whose records were secretly subpoenaed are eligible to file claims, which is a sentence that exists. The Senate responded by going home for a few weeks rather than dealing with it, which is technically a dereliction of their constitutional duty to approve funding, but here we are. Mortgage rates also hit a nine-month high this week at 6.51%, Trump is claiming he can build his DC arch without congressional approval, and a design commission approved the arch's look, which is one of many steps still required — Congress included, no matter what Donald says. On the Epstein files, Jeffrey Epstein's former personal assistant Sarah Kellen testified before the House Oversight Committee in a session described as deeply informative and genuinely harrowing — revealing she was recruited at 21, sexually and psychologically abused by Epstein for over a decade, and was "being paid in part to be raped." She also told the committee that the federal government included her name in Epstein's 2008 nonprosecution agreement without ever speaking to her, effectively branding her a criminal in a secret deal made with her own abuser.
