In the latest edition of NdB Sunday Show with Chris Steyn and Lauren Evanthia, the Founder of the Organic Humanity Movement, they talk about the authorities going after the R3million Bentley Continental GT that had belonged to President Cryil Ramaposa's nephew by marriage, Hangwani Morgan Maumela, who has been fingered as the Tembisa Hospital looting kingpin; criminal charges being laid against former Ekurhuleni City Manager Dr Imogen Mashazi who once turned up at a fashion event in an outfit estimated to have cost R3.5 million; NUMSA General Secretary Irvin Jim's lifestyle under scrutiny with talk of a R5m custom-armoured BMW and an exclusive apartment; as well as the Zim wedding of a tenderpreneur's son where the couple received US$20m in wedding gifts.

Piers Blofeld talks to Spymasters about his new book on Anthony Blunt, MASTER OF LIES, the greatest traitor, working for Churchill and Stalin, Operation Market Garden, a not-confession confession, enjoying the limelight of discovery. MASTER OF LIES: In a brilliant feat of literary detective work Master of Lies tells the extraordinary untold story of Anthony Blunt's life as a spy. Based on extensive research into newly released files he is revealed as not simply "the fourth man", but the most dangerous spy of the twentieth century.During the war, as the fate of the world hung in the balance, Blunt's intelligence was being fed straight on to the desks of Hitler, Stalin and Churchill. His hand was secretly guiding our collective fate and his treason led to the deaths of tens of thousands. He casts a shadow which looms large to this day.The official narrative is that Blunt was the least of the Cambridge spies - and yet he was the one who got away with it. While the rest drank themselves to death in dingy Moscow flats, Blunt revelled in his brilliant career as an art historian, Surveyor of the Queen's pictures and Knight of the Realm. He was protected not just by his many friendships with the great and the good, but by the brilliance with which he played the game - his was a secret too big to be told.Master of Lies reads like the best spy fiction but it solves one of the great espionage mysteries of our times. Piers Blofeld is a literary agent and, apart from a brief stint as a story consultant in the video games industry he has worked in publishing for the whole of his career. A regular commentator on the mysteries of the book business he has had his own column in Writing Magazine for the last five years. Born and bred in Norfolk, his surname made it all but inevitable he would nurture a fascination with supervillainy and spying. Master of Lies is his first book. Recommended Anthony Glees The Secrets of the Service Paul Burke is editor of Aspects of Crime. His first book Spies on Screen From Silent to Streaming will be published in September.

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Tucker Carlson's bizarre performance on a New York Times podcast, Democrats already plotting another government shutdown showdown ahead of the midterms, and the University of Oregon agreeing to use the campus alert system if ICE agents are spotted on campus.First, they shake their heads over Carlson flatly denying that he ever speculated on his own podcast about whether President Trump could be the Antichrist, even when confronted with his own words. The segment only gets stranger as Carlson suggests possible treachery within the administration against Vice President JD Vance. Jim and Greg try to figure out what's going on with Tucker.Next, they spotlight the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee openly admitting that Democrats are already considering a government shutdown this October unless their absurd ICE "reforms" are agreed to. How will this impact the midterm elections?Then, they roll their eyes as the University of Oregon gives in to student demands by agreeing to activate the campus alert system if ICE agents are spotted nearby. Finally, they point to a special state senate election in Michigan tomorrow for a seat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer held open for 16 months for political advantage.Please visit our great sponsors:Pocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.Fast Growing TreesBetter plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.ZocDocStop putting off those doctors' appointments and visit https://Zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today.New episodes every weekday.

A Sunday New York Times profile of outgoing Apple CEO Tim Cook implicitly confirmed his status as the preeminent member of what the Communist Chinese contemptuously call our “captured elite.” In practice, that means he and his company profited immeasurably by systematically betraying this country.  Patrick McGee, the author of Apple in China, wrote: “Based on my research, I am convinced that no company has done more to enable President Xi. Since 2008, Apple has worked with suppliers to train 30 million workers, principally in China…facilitat[ing] an epic transfer of practical knowledge in how to make things to hundreds of Chinese factories.”  Regretably, Cook's treachery is not unique. Untold numbers of Wall Street's “masters of the universe” have used the funds of pensioners, investors in mutual funds and other clients to underwrite China's menacing military build-up.   Treason must no longer pay. This is Frank Gaffney.

Peter Leithart, Alastair Roberts, Jeff Meyers, and James Bejon continue their series on Malachi, opening with a reflection on Malachi 2's portrait of the ideal Levitical priest — one whose lips carry true Torah, whose mouth pronounces righteous judgment, and who walks as a messenger of the Lord of hosts — drawing out implications for pastoral ministry in the new covenant. The conversation then turns to Malachi 2:10–16, tracing the repeated theme of treachery that binds the section together, with careful attention to the interconnection between Israel's betrayal of one another, their unfaithfulness to Yahweh, and the intermarriage controversies addressed by Ezra and Nehemiah. The panel explores the layered resonances of "abomination" in verse 11 — its evocation of Canaanite defilement, Solomonic apostasy, and the husband-bride typology of Yahweh and his sanctuary — while probing the puzzling idiom of verse 12 and leaving its mystery suggestively unresolved.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Peter Maguire — historian, author, surfer, black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and one of the most uncompromising truth-tellers working today. From firsthand accounts of the Khmer Rouge genocide to designing classified military watercraft, from the courtrooms of Nuremberg's legacy to the mat at Hickson Gracie's academy, Peter has lived the research most academics only read about. This conversation is raw, wide-ranging, and pulls no punches on history, accountability, power, and what it truly means to act with integrity. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [0:05:40] Peter reveals his family's deep connection to the Nuremberg Trials — his great-grandfather was a judge — and how that legacy drove him to travel to Cambodia in 1994 to document the Khmer Rouge genocide firsthand, at serious personal risk. [0:06:55] Peter describes entering a civil-war-era Cambodia with a $5,000 bounty on Western heads, collecting testimony from survivors, guards, and perpetrators at S-21 prison — and how the experience permanently shattered his faith in international human rights institutions. [0:17:00] The story of Peter's classified military boat project: how a team of surfers and civilians earned three sole-source government contracts and passed all military testing, only to watch their vision get dismantled by the military-industrial complex — all while simultaneously writing op-eds critical of U.S. prisoner policy. [1:17:01] Peter opens up about watching Hickson Gracie's Parkinson's diagnosis unfold, the emotional difficulty of co-writing that book, and what Hickson's profound acceptance of his condition reveals about the nature of the ultimate fight. [2:24:31] Peter describes founding the Fainting Robin Foundation — an organization that steps in when governments and legal systems fail — including helping veterans denied cancer treatment, conducting civilian evacuations in Ukraine, and tracking down a murderer in Cambodia. Peter Maguire is a historian, author, martial artist, and adventurer whose work sits at the intersection of war, justice, and lived experience. He holds a PhD and wrote his dissertation under Brigadier General Telford Taylor, the chief prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials. His books include Law and War: An American Story, Facing Death in Cambodia, Thai Stick: Surfers, Scammers, and the Untold Story of the Marijuana Trade, and two books co-authored with Hickson Gracie. Peter spent years in post-genocide Cambodia documenting atrocities, interviewing survivors and perpetrators at S-21 prison, and working on MIA/POW investigations. He also designed a military watercraft that received U.S. government contracts before being co-opted by bureaucracy. A black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Hickson Gracie's lineage, he is the founder of the Fainting Robin Foundation, which provides investigative and legal support to those failed by conventional systems. He publishes independently on Substack at Sour Milk. Learn more about the gift of Adversity and my mission to help my fellow humans create a better world by heading to www.marcusaureliusanderson.com.

Left for Dead: Shipwreck and Treachery in 1812 5 sources·11 April, 2026These sources detail a harrowing historical account from Eric J. Dolan's book, Left for Dead, which recounts a true story of shipwreck and betrayal in the Falkland Islands during the War of 1812. The narrative centers on Charles Barnard, an American sealing captain who attempted to rescue the survivors of the wrecked British ship Isabella, only to be betrayed by the Britishdue to the maritime prize system. Despite Barnard's humanitarian efforts, a British officer named Lieutenant D'Aranda seized Barnard's ship as a prize of war, subsequently marooning a small hunting party on the desolate islands for over 500 days. The texts highlight the extreme survival tactics employed by the abandoned men and emphasize the critical role played by Barnard's dog, Scent, in their hunt for food. Following their eventual rescue, the story concludes with a lengthy legal battle over the captured vessel and the publication of Barnard's personal memoirs. Overall, the sources examine the collision of international conflict and personal greed against the backdrop of an unforgiving wilderness.1. Guest Author: Eric J. Dolin. Dolin discusses his book *Left for Dead*, detailing the lucrative 19th-century sealing industry and the *Nanina's* high-risk 1812 voyage. Captain Charles Barnard and his veteran father, Valentine, led a crew from New York to the Falkland Islands, gambling on high demand for skins despite the looming war. (1)1839 Falklands

The Treachery of Judas Foretold - Wednesday of Holy Week 2026 by Shawn Ozbun

In December 2003 in Sugar Land, Texas, the Whitaker family had a special celebratory dinner for their son's impending college graduation but the night ended in unthinkable tragedy. Two of the four family members were brutally gunned down in front of their home while the other two sustained serious wounds. What initially appeared to be an interrupted burglary, unraveled into a sinister betrayal. As investigators dug deeper into the crime, they uncovered a yearslong murder plot involving deception, a lost son's search for vengeance, and a father's unlikely forgiveness. This is the unforgettable story of the Whitaker family.Today's snack: Baked Browned Butter Churro Bars with Melted ChocolateSupport us on PatreonSources:Whitaker, Kent. (2008).

Welcome back to Gnostic Insights. The goal here at this Gnostic Insights podcast and the Gnostic Reformation on Substack is to share with you information from the Nag Hammadi, primarily from a book in the Nag Hammadi called the Tripartite Tractate, concerning the gnosis of our existence. The reason that it’s important to discover this gnosis is because gnosis is your personal reassurance that you are loved and not alone. Gnosis isn’t just about knowledge or arcane knowledge or mythologies or uncovering past histories of old religions. Gnosis is wisdom. It’s understanding. And primarily this gnosis will help us all live a better life in the here and now. A lot of people are stuck in the muck. There are so many cravings and attachments down here. Cravings for sex, drugs, social media, whatever the thing is. Even popular culture is something that people get stuck in. You have to conform. You have to dress just so. Your hair has to be just so. These are all attempts at happiness, right? I mean, most people want to be happy. And generally you feel that if only you got your point across, if people understood what you understand, then the world would be a better place. Then you could be happy because we’d all get along. Say, wouldn’t it be nice if, for example, the utopian vision was coming true here in our world? Wouldn’t it be oh so nice if we all were taken care of by the government, like our big mama, and that she’s going to wrap her arms around us. And they’re going to come and they’re going to give us free food. They’re going to make sure that we’re housed in nice places we like. They’re going to give us walking around money. And then everything will be nice and we’ll all get along. But this isn’t going to happen, folks. It can’t happen in this world because this is a fallen world. The governments aren’t here to serve us. Ideally, they’re supposed to be here to serve us. You know, we’re the boss. They work for us. But no, because the people that go into this sort of political service are there to serve themselves primarily. They’re in there for power and control. I would think that most of them could care less about you and your happiness, seriously. But they want the world to be just so. And they think if the world were only here and like this and like this and like this and like this and we’ll make them do this and we’ll put them in this box and we’ll make them do that, then everything would be all right and we could all live happily ever after. But it’s never going to happen through politics, folks. Jason Mraz is a singer I like a lot. And in his first album, he had a song that said, “in the order of the primates, all our politics are too late,” which means that we primate type of animals, we humans, can’t be controlled by the politics. So religions that say, Oh, yeah, politics may not be able to do it, but the religion can. Look, all you have to do is follow our rules, read our books, believe exactly what we believe, and march in time and sing with the choir, that then you’ll be happy. And then at least those in our religion will be the happy ones. But it usually doesn’t work out there either, does it? Because of the same thing. People who are in control, people who crave power, are corrupted by power. For people who crave control, control becomes the end, not the means. And we can’t be controlled. The Demiurge learned this. You know, the Demiurge doesn’t like us. The Demiurge doesn’t love us. By the way, for those of you who are new here, the Demiurge is the creator of this Earth that we live in, that we are occupying here. And according to Gnosticism, we are trapped here. This isn’t God’s world. This isn’t the world of love and the Aeons and everything’s fine, if only everyone would agree with us. No, this is the fallen world. This is the world that runs on power, control, and attraction to, and addiction to, various vices. And vices are the values of the Demiurge, the god of this world. So it’s always, I need, need, need more. And you shut up because you don’t agree with me. You shut up because you’re evil. You shut up or else I’m going to kill you or hurt you or take your things away from you. This is the never-ending war we’re engaged in down here. It’s a condition of this world. So you can’t look to politics to save you. You can’t look to the government to take care of you. You can’t look to your religious authority, that particular human-led hierarchical control mechanism, to bring you the love and joy and peace and happiness. Because there’s a lot of miserable people sitting in church. I’ve got news for you—you know, I do listen to Christian radio. I do listen to a lot of Christian talk shows. And I can tell you, people are unhappy. People are messed up, no matter where they’re sitting, whether they’re sitting in a pew on Sundays and Wednesdays or not. Because it’s our culture, which is our collective meme structure, that influences more than anything else, unless you are plugged into the Father above. Unless you are redeemed by the Christ who came to redeem you. Unless you prefer virtue to vice. I know I sound like a namby-pamby when I talk this way, but that’s only because if you think that is provincial, what I’m saying, it’s your worldview that is influencing you. And your worldview is mostly influenced by the culture in which you find yourself. So it’s a self-regulating mechanism. It’s a mechanism that feeds itself. The more we grab onto the culture—you know—how you should look, what you should eat, what your house should look like, what colors you wear, what you do for a living. That’s the culture. What you watch on TV, for crying out loud. What you watch incessantly on your handheld mobile devices. This is a sickness to me. I can’t believe it when I go to the park with my dog and I see families there with little kids. And the mom and the dad are both looking at their cell phones. They aren’t looking at the kids. They aren’t playing with the kids. They aren’t watching to make sure their four-year-old doesn’t fall from the top of the climbing jungle. They’re working on their cell phones or they’re playing games on their cell phones. We are in a culture that seeks to control us every minute of every day. And when you give in to the culture, when you give in to the Demiurge, when you give in to the vices, you’re lost. You’re lost. That will not bring you happiness. Happiness comes from above. Peace, love, happiness, like the old songs used to say in the hippie days. That’s what we’re all after. That’s what we crave because that’s what it is up above. The peace, love, and happiness exist on the ethereal plane, and we second-order powers, which includes us humans and all living creatures on the planet, come from above. We come from the land of peace, love, and happiness. And then we find ourselves in this material existence down here in the cosmos. And we want to bring that peace, love, and happiness back alive inside of us. But you can’t find it out there in the culture, folks. You’re not going to find it out there. You have to find it by a personal connection between your spiritual Self, the Self you were born with—the personality of the Aeonic parents who formed you. The only connection to peace, love, and happiness is when your Self is in tune with the Father, the Son, the Christ, and the Fullness of God, that is, the Aeons above. Now, if you’re not familiar with basic Gnostic concepts, what I’m telling you now is confusing. Because, hey, look, I just criticized religion, didn’t I? And now I’m saying you’ve got to be in tune with God and the Son and Christ? And the Fullness of God? Well, that seems like a bunch of malarkey. Am I contradicting myself? No, because the religions of the Earth are like the politics of the Earth—they’re constructed by humans. So it’s humanity that is corrupted down here, and it’s not our fault. I don’t think we are inherently sinful. That is where the gnosis splits from traditional religions. We do not come into the world born into sin, born into vice. We come down as pure spiritual beings, what I call here the Self, the big S Self. That’s your spiritual being. The Self at the center of our souls is a fractal of the Fullness of God And we also come down with our egos, which are formed above as well, because even the Aeons in the hierarchy of God have a Self and an ego. Everyone has their position, place, duties, powers, talents, and they’re all different. We come down as combinations. We are the children of those Aeons. And so we come down as various combinations of those Aeons with different degrees of talents according to our aeonic inheritance. That’s your Self. That’s your ego. We know who we are. We have a name in heaven before we’re born. We have talents. We have an assignment. We have a duty. Now, all humans, all second order powers for that matter, are sent down into this fallen world in order to show the world, to demonstrate the purity of love, the fact that we come from above, the fact that we have a Father in heaven, the fact that we are loved by our aeonic parents, and all is perfect up there. But down here, it’s a whole different matter, because this isn’t that. This world is ruled by the fallen Demiurge—the fallen ego of Logos, or if you’re coming from a different brand of Gnosticism, you’re accustomed to thinking of the fallen Aeon as Sophia. I prefer to call that fallen Aeon Logos, and that’s the one that is identified in the Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi as the Aeon who fell. And then after the fall, Logos’ ego separated from its pure aeonic Self, and Logos the Self went back up to the Fullness of God, whereas Logos the ego stayed down here, and Logos down here is a shadow of above. Everything that is the ego of Logos who is stuck down here, that Being called the Demiurge in Gnostic speak, is the inverse of the Logos above. It’s the shadow of the Aeons in the Fullness of God. So everything that Logos produces is dark and heavy and a shadow. That’s our material existence. And what is a virtue up in heaven, such as loyalty, let’s say, becomes a vice down here, because it’s the inverse of it. So the inverse of the virtue of loyalty would be the vice of disloyalty or treachery, infidelity, unfaithfulness. So loyalty being a virtue, it makes us happy. It gives us a warm fuzzy. The opposite, which is the shadow of loyalty, always makes us feel horrible, right? Treachery, infidelity, unfaithfulness, those are not good. Those are not lifestyle choices. Those are bad things that come into our culture that we’re immersed in through the Demiurge and the inversion of the values of the Fullness. Let me talk a minute about memes. Memes are units of information that people share. Usually they come in the form of words, discussions, but of course they can be pictures, they can be cartoons. We are swimming in a sea of memes, and we build a structure, a worldview out of the memes that we collect and hold on to. Every person is unique in the memes they hold on to. I call it your meme bundle. Think of it as a sack that you sling over your back, and all those memes are in there everywhere you walk around. If you’re carrying around a sack of worldly culture or demiurgic vices, then you are going to be weighed down and burdened by those memes. If you carry a sack full of virtues and belief and hope, love, and joy, you will be bouyed up by those memes that cling to your ego. The memes we hold onto and our karmic record continually loop around and feed into our choices in the here and now. Your Self is that pure Self that you come into the world with when you’re born, and it is a fractal of the hierarchy of God. You have all of the gnosis of the hierarchy of God within yourself. And we’re also born with our ego. Now, when we’re up above, our ego is just our name, our address, our duties, our talents. It’s the way that people recognize us. It’s that knowledge of who you are. That’s your pure ego. When you come down here, your ego begins to attract, like a magnet, the memes of the culture that you find yourself in. And if you go about attracting worldly memes that are actually bad for you, or that are actually vices, then you’re just going to be a miserable human being. And no amount of government or religious law will make you obey, will make you happy, will make you love your neighbor. No, it’s all going to be about me, me, me. It’s funny that meme in English is made up of two me’s, right? Me, me. So our goal, as we progress through this life and we mature, if we want to be happier, if we want to be more loving, if we want to become enlightened, you have to drop the earthly memes that come from the Demiurge and the culture, and you have to actually hold onto and believe in and put to use the godly memes that come from above, those being the virtues. Let me run through a few of those virtues and vices so you can get the idea. In this transcript, I’m going to post a list that I came up with. I’m sure there’s a much more extensive list, I don’t know where it exists. But there’s a list that I have in my Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel book that you can find, and I’ll put that list here that compares virtues and vices. And you’ll see that when you look at the vice side of the list, it’s nothing but misery, yet it’s the thing that most people cling to out of a false idea that that’s the path to happiness. You know—the more things I acquire, the happier I’ll be. If only I had this, if only I could eat that, if only I could have sex with them, I’d be happy. No, no, that isn’t the way it works. These vices bring you down. It’s only the virtues that lift you up. They lift you all the way up to heaven. You trade in your vices for the virtues. You flip the script. So let’s just hear what some of these vices and virtues are so you can get the gist of it. But I’d still like you to go and read the list that is posted in this transcript at Gnostic.com and the Gnostic Reformation on Substack. Well, the first one, just to start off with, is the virtue of love, the loving. God is love. That is the Father’s primary characteristic. Love is our call. We can only be happy when we are loving. And a lot of people down here mistake sexual attraction for love. Oh, if only I could have sex with that person and then marry them and have sex with them all the time. That’s love. That isn’t love, folks. The love you have for your dog is love. The love your dog has for you, that’s love. The love you have for a newborn baby is pure. That’s love. Yes, you can love your spouse. We are all called to have a loving family relationship. But don’t mistake sex for love. That’s the first thing. Now the opposite, the vice side of love, true love, is hate, spite, spitefulness, hatefulness. So what I see when I look at the news, I see a lot of people who think that they’re going to usher in a utopia through their hatred for a political party or their hatred for a political figure such as a president. You cannot usher in utopia and a loving society beginning from the springboard of hatred. It isn’t going to work. It’s the opposite. So that’s the first major mistake. Generosity, being generous, that’s a virtue. Sharing what you have. The opposite of generosity is greed, is greediness, wanting more and more and more. For whom? For me, me, me. Greed, acquisition of material possessions or people, cannot bring you happiness. It won’t work. Generosity, a loving attitude of generosity, being willing to share, that’s what brings you happiness. That’s what brings you love and shows love. Worshiping the Father is a primary duty of the Aeons and of us Second Order Powers. That is, giving credit where credit is due—that it all comes from above.All good things come from God. The word God is the same word as good. The opposite of having a worshipful attitude toward the Father is what’s called vainglory. It’s worshiping yourself or worshiping others, such as sports figures, such as musicians and actors. People go crazy in their presence. They worship them. No. That’s vainglory. You can’t worship other people or yourself. That doesn’t bring happiness. All of the things on the vice side of the meme list might bring you a temporary pleasure. They bring you a temporary jolt of energy and excitement, but you can’t dwell there. It’s like a heavy drug. Obviously, taking a heavy drug gives people a rush of an excellent feeling, but it’s false. It’s not true. It’s demiurgic and it enslaves. It’s all about power and control. Another virtue, for example, is to be useful, is to be part of making the world a better place in a useful way. That begins with the people around you holding hands with others, the Simple Golden Rule—holding hands with others to build something that none of you can build on your own. That’s for the betterment of all, for everyone. That’s the point of being a useful, a productive citizen. It’s to build a better society. It’s not useful to tear down society. It’s not useful to be anarchistic. The opposite of usefulness is destruction or sloth. Those are two opposites of being useful. Being lazy, being a couch potato, playing video games all day, that is not a useful use of your lifetime. We are called to be loving, caring, useful, good neighbors, good family members. We are called to remember the Father and worship the Father. The Christ was sent to assist us because we forget our duty down here. We forget how to do everything because we get lost in the culture of the world and we buy into the power structures that seek to control you. Don’t think that you can tear down what’s here through anger and wrath and violence, and then something wonderful will arise from it. No, if you tear down what exists here out of anger and hatred, it only will bring more hatred, violence, and anger. It can’t build up. It can only pull down. We make the world a better place by turning our eyes upward and remembering the Father, the Son, accepting the assistance of the Christ who is our vessel of knowledge and love. Christ came to enlighten us, and to think you don’t need Christ, well, that’s vainglory, isn’t it? That’s worshiping yourself and your abilities. You’re not going to be able to change the world. So the Third Order of Powers was sent down in order to help us demonstrate love and the Simple Golden Rule of helping others and making the world a better place. And that’s the path to enlightenment. That’s the gnosis. Remember, we come from above. Remember, we come from the Father. We’re part of the Father’s consciousness. We’re part of the Father’s love. And only by channeling and demonstrating that in truth, not in hypocrisy, not through slogans, but in truth, through action, this is the way we bring about a better world. Until next week, God bless us all, and onward and upward. The values of the Demiurge lead to isolation and despair. The values of the Fullness lead to peace and joy.

Silicon Bites Ep302 | 2026-03-15 | Make it make sense. Iran helped Russia attack Ukraine, but Russia is also providing data to Iran to target U.S. military assets in its confrontation with Iran. Yet Trump is lifting oil sanctions on Russia. None of it makes sense, unless we accept that Trump is acting to benefit Russia, whether he is fully conscious of that or not. I'm inclined to believe he knows what he's doing, when he makes decisions that provide strategic advantage to Vladimir Putin. As the war evolved against Ukraine, Russia absorbed drone technology from Iran, the infamous Shaheed, scaled production, and according to Volodymyr Zelenskyy is now supplying Shahed drones back to Iran for use against the United States and Israel. Reuters, quoting Zelenskyy's CNN interview broadcast on March 15, says he called it “100% facts” that Iran has used Russian-made Shaheeds against U.S. bases. Reuters also added an important caveat: not every Shahed used in the region can be cleanly attributed from public evidence, and the exact manufacturer is not always clear. The strongest version of the claim is this: Zelenskyy says Russia is now feeding the very drone ecosystem that Iran once fed into Russia's war on Ukraine. (Reuters)Reports are coming out today even, that claim China is manufacturing drones for use by both Russia and Iran. This is the axis of authoritarians in full alignment on this issue at least. That is one of many grotesque inversions, in an episode where we struggle to make sense of it all.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------SOURCES:Reuters, March 15, 2026 — Zelenskyy says Ukraine wants money and technology in return for Middle East drone help.Reuters, March 14–15, 2026 — Zelenskyy says Russia is supplying Iran with Shahed drones.

Stew tears apart the fake pretext for Trump's war on Iran – a blatant Zionist conquest funded by AIPAC and the Rothschild banking cabal headquartered in the crime state of Israel. From bombing Iranian schoolgirls to sacrificing Gen Z soldiers at Mar-a-Lago parties, this isn't America First; it's Israel First, orchestrated by Jewish blackmail operations and satanic elites who rape sovereignty and kids alike. Max Igan drops the bomb: These Jew-controlled pedovore monsters have welded America and Israel into a demonic genocide factory—sniping Red Crescent ambulances, unloading 900+ rounds into helpless medics and survivors, then finishing the job execution-style. Pure Tribe barbarism! This is the Greater Israel blueprint: Mass-murdering Arab kids, bulldozing cities into dust, and erecting swanky resorts plus their filthy Third Temple for ritual child sacrifices atop pyramids of goy bones.

Bestselling and award-winning writer Matthew Pearl joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to discuss his new novel The Award. Pearl explores the relationship between cultural prizes and ideas of nationhood, as well as imposter syndrome and external validation, like MFAs, literary awards, and being seen writing in coffeeshops by and with other writers. He reflects on developing the character of David Trent, an aspiring young writer in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Pearl himself formerly lived and participated in cafe culture. He talks about the ethical lines David is willing to cross to achieve success and how he rationalizes these choices to himself. He also explains the larger-than-life character of Silas Hale, the famous and mercurial novelist who lives downstairs from David, controls their shared thermostat, and has no interest in mentoring his young neighbor. Pearl considers how David's life changes when he publishes a book and wins a prize. He reads from The Award. This podcast is produced by V.V.

American Kompromat unravels the Russian-influenced operations that amassed the dirty little secrets of the richest and most powerful men on earth.  American Kompromat is based on extended and exclusive interviews with high-level sources in the KGB, CIA, and FBI, as well as lawyers at white-shoe Washington firms, associates of Jeffrey Epstein, and thousands of pages of FBI reports, police investigations, and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. A narrative offering jaw-dropping context, and set in Upper East Side mansions and private Caribbean islands, gigantic yachts, and private jets, American Kompromat shows that, from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, Russian operations transformed the darkest secrets of the most powerful people in the world into potent weapons that served its interests.  Among its many revelations, American Kompromat addresses what may be the single most important unanswered question of the entire Trump era ― and one that Unger argues is even more important now that Trump is out of office: Was Donald Trump a Russian asset? Just how compromised was he? And how could such an audacious feat have been accomplished? To answer these questions and more, Craig Unger reports, is to understand kompromat ― operations that amassed compromising information on the richest and most powerful men on earth, and that leveraged power by appealing to what is, for some, the most prized possession of all: their vanity.  This is a story that transcends the end of the Trump administration, illuminating a major underreported aspect of Trump's corruption that has profoundly damaged American democracy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Last week's meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping may have brought a respite in the trade war. But it hardly touched the more fundamental drivers of U.S.-Chinese rivalry, a rivalry that has come to shape more and more dimensions of geopolitics, the global economy, and beyond. Few have spent as much time observing and chronicling the interactions between Washington and Beijing as Orville Schell. Schell, one of America's foremost China hands and the author of too many books on China to name, has been in the room for encounters between a slew of American presidents and Chinese leaders. He has also, for decades, interpreted the bitter factional struggles and geopolitical jockeying of the Chinese Communist Party. And as Xi's attempt to remake the Chinese state continues, Schell has mined China's history and its present for insight—into how the country thinks of its place in the world, and into the unresolved contradictions that continue to roil the party. “Peek behind the veil,” Schell writes in the latest issue of Foreign Affairs, “and a different reality reveals itself: a dog-eat-dog world of power struggles, artifice, hubris, treachery, and duplicity—yet also an enormous amount of sacrifice.” Dan Kurtz-Phelan spoke with Schell on Tuesday, November 4, about Trump and Xi, about the state of the United States' China policy, and about both the past and future of China itself.

The Fight for the Nanina and Charles Barnard's Return to the Sea Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World Barnard and his party survived 534 days in wretched conditions, primarily thanks to their sizable dog, Scent, who hunted wild hogs. When rescued by British whale ships and taken to Lima, Peru, Barnard regretfully gave Scent to a British whaling captain, believing the dog deserved a better life than an arduous two-year voyage home. Barnard returned home bankrupt, but Murray and Son successfully appealed the prize court's initial decision. The court ultimately sided with the Americans, awarding them the value of the brig—a ruling Danda resented for the rest of his life. Though initially vowing to quit the sea, Barnard resumed sealing and later became a port warden and light ship captain, publishing his account in 1829.

The High-Risk Sealing Expedition of the Nanina Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World Sealing was a lucrative industry, particularly for the China market, valued for its high-quality fur seal pelts and elephant seal blubber. Charles Barnard, a veteran sealer, proposed a high-risk expedition on the brig Nanina to the Falkland Islands, which Murray and Son backed despite the impending War of 1812. Many merchant vessels remained in port, but Barnard and Murray viewed this as an opportunity to meet pent-up demand. Barnard's crew included four captains, notably diarist Barzillai Pease, and his 63-year-old, infirm father, Valentine Barnard, who was meant to captain the Nanina on its return voyage to New York laden with cargo. They departed from New York just as an embargo took effect. 1833 FALKLANDS

The Falklands and the Wreck Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World The American sealers sought valuable fur seals and elephant seal blubber in the Falkland Islands, a harsh, virtually uninhabited region characterized by constant high winds averaging 18 mph and cold temperatures averaging 49°F in summer. The treeless landscape features tusk grass, which grows up to nine feet tall and yields peat useful for making fires. While the Nanina hunted seals, the Australian transport ship Isabella wrecked on Eagle Island due to Captain George Hickton's ineptitude and drinking. The 54 survivors, including Marines and pardoned convicts, made it ashore, though many were inebriated and convinced they would perish in this desolate location. 1849 FALKLANDS

The Collapse of the Humanitarian Deal and Barnard's Abandonment Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World Charles Barnard offered the British castaways a humanitarian deal: he would transport them to South America in exchange for salvage rights to the Isabella wreck. Although the British learned the War of 1812 had commenced, they accepted the terms. However, one of the British captains, Brooks, secured a rescue mission from Buenos Aires commanded by Lieutenant William Peter Danda aboard the HMS Nancy. Danda was driven by the prospect of personal financial gain offered by the prize system and disregarded the Americans' humanitarian assistance to British citizens. Danda seized the Nanina as a prize of war, imprisoned most of the American crew, and deliberately marooned Barnard and a hunting party who were ashore gathering food for the castaways.

PREVIEW: ERIC JAY DOLIN'S LEFT FOR DEAD  D'Aranda's Treachery and the Semi-piracy of the Prize System Guest: Eric Jay Dolin The book focuses on the greed involved in the prize system during a minor 1812 incident in the Falkland Islands. Lieutenant D'Aranda of HMS Nancy arrived intending to be a hero by rescuing castaways. However, D'Aranda immediately ripped up the Americans' humanitarian deal, viewing the situation as an opportunity for personal financial gain. He claimed the American ship Nanina as a prize and the Americans as prisoners of war, highlighting how many interpreted the prize system as "semi-piracy." The British castaways did not oppose D'Aranda's decision. D'Aranda completed his villainous act by abandoning Charles Barnard and his party who were hunting ashore to secure necessary food provisions.
