Having reported from over sixty countries, from the front lines of wars in Ukraine and Syria to the wilds of the Antarctic, ABC News Chief International Correspondent James Longman has witnessed the extremes of human existence firsthand. But the story that has stayed with him the longest is closer to home. In his new memoir, The Inherited Mind, James applies his journalistic skills to explore a family legacy marked by mental illness, and the science and people that shape us. James was just a preteen at boarding school when his father, who struggled with depression and schizophrenia, died by suicide. His uncle was also diagnosed with schizophrenia, and his grandfather also ended his life. As James grew older, his own battles with depression led him to examine how his father's mental health might have influenced his own. Drawing on conversations with leading experts, he delves into the science of inheritance, the impact of environment on genetic predispositions, and how one can overcome a familial history of mental illness and trauma. On January 30, James was joined in conversation with longtime friend, barrister and broadcaster Rob Rinder for a powerful discussion on family, resilience, and frontline reporting, live at the Kiln Theatre in London. --------- This is the first instalment of a two-part episode.

Mary dives into some headlines today that highlight the priorities and challenges of our new administration like nothing else. Trump and Musk have pulled the plug on the gooey, swampy USAID organization that provides funding to multiple countries for such diverse and in some cases, covert activities, such as terrorism, liberal causes, the overthrow of governments, and the corrupt Big Media. Taxpayer money has always been earmarked for overseas government aid, some of which, such as aid to Israel, actually is in our best security interests. But the average American, even before pulling the voting lever in November, truly had no idea that this was even taking place. We also look at the proposal for the US to take over Gaza, leveling the current decimated landscape, and giving Gazans a new start. With all that going on, we see that someone has put their foot on the gas pedal to make American's lives better - yet the march to globalism goes on outside our borders, fulfilling Bible prophecy. Email Mary with your feedback! Buckle up. Here are today's topics: Trump's Gaza Riviera Proposal Trump proposed transforming the war-torn Gaza Strip into a "Riviera" for economic development. His plan includes U.S. control over Gaza, clearing unexploded bombs, leveling the area, and building jobs and housing. International reactions: Turkey: Called the idea "unacceptable." France: Warned of regional destabilization. China, Russia, Spain, UK: Support a two-state solution. Challenges highlighted by Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis: Forcibly removing Gazans could be labeled ethnic cleansing. Egypt and Jordan unlikely to accept 2 million refugees. Increased Palestinian grievance could fuel unrest in the U.S. Hamas is not yet destroyed, making rebuilding impossible. Speculation that Trump's proposal is more about drawing attention to the issue. Zelenskyy Wants Nukes or NATO Ukrainian President Zelenskyy suggests Ukraine should regain nuclear arms if NATO membership is off the table. Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg dismissed this possibility as "slim to none." Reminder: Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons in 1994 in exchange for sovereignty guarantees, which Russia later violated. The war in Ukraine has entered its third year, with prolonged U.S. financial aid. USAID Controversy – Trump and Musk Targeting Foreign Aid Drastic changes to USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development): Dozens of officials placed on leave. Thousands of contractors laid off. Freeze on billions in foreign aid. Historical background: Established in 1961 by JFK during the Cold War. Critics argue USAID promotes a liberal agenda and funds globalist causes. Major spending highlights: $40 billion spent in foreign aid in 2023. Controversial allocations: $68 million to the World Economic Forum. $10 million for green transportation in Georgia. $20 million for a Sesame Street show in Iraq. $2 million for LGBT activism in Guatemala. Trump's crackdown: Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) aims to cut USAID spending. "Resign via email" policy implemented for federal workers refusing to return to the office. USAID absorbed into the State Department, marking a major shift. USAID's Role in Election Interference & Censorship Revelations of USAID funding political manipulation: Funded revolutions in Ukraine, Georgia, Lebanon, Kyrgyzstan. Over $9 million funneled to terrorist groups in Syria. Supported censorship through the Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening. Helped pass laws to censor speech worldwide. USAID's role in the COVID-19 pandemic: Funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Media Corruption & USAID Funding Major media outlets receiving U.S. government money: Politico: $34.3 million from USAID. Associated Press: $19.5 million.

Retired Gen. Keith Kellog, President Trump's envoy for the Ukraine-Russia war, confirmed that he will participate next week in the Munich Security Conference, but rejected news reports that he will reveal Mr. Trump's peace plan to end the war. However, the Daily Mail published what it claims are the key points of the secret plan. First, let's get an update on President Trump's audacious plan to relocate 2 million Palestinian to other countries and for the US to seize control of Gaza.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

Just weeks into his second term, President Donald Trump is sending shockwaves around the world. From proposing resettling the population of Gaza to saying he wants the United States to regain control of the Panama Canal, the president is making it clear that he's not following the traditional set of rules that have guided American foreign policy for decades. Looking at Trump's plans abroad, NY1's Errol Louis recently held an in-depth discussion with veteran diplomat Richard Haass, the president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relation. The conversation at Temple Emanuel of Great Neck, Long Island, tackled a wide range of international topics from Greenland to Ukraine to the Middle East.

On his return to the White House this January, Donald Trump pledged to be a ‘peacemaker', after insisting during his campaign that he would bring an end to the conflict in Ukraine in 24 hours. Nearly three years into Russia's all out war on its neighbour, its brutal attacks continue – with incremental territorial gains coming at the costs of thousands of lives. Yet Ukraine's military still fights to hold the line. Has Trump really got the leverage to bring Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the table to sign a peace deal? In the latest episode of This Is Not A Drill, Oz Katerji discusses the future for Ukraine, Russia and US foreign policy with the US military's former commander in Europe, Lieutenant General (Retired) Ben Hodges. • Go to http://proton.me/notadrill to receive a 38% discount on Proton Mail • This episode of This Is Not A Drill is supported by Incogni, the service that keeps your private information safe, protects you from identity theft and keeps your data from being sold.

Edition No92 | 06-02-2025 - North Koreans may have pulled out of front line. At least this is the claim coming from officials in Ukraine. Ukrainian special forces fighting in the Kursk region, which is where Koreans are thought to be concentrated, told the BBC they have not seen any North Korean troops there for the past three weeks. Ukraine's Special Operations Forces (SOF) spokesperson, Colonel Oleksandr Kindratenko, said it was likely they had pulled out after suffering heavy losses. So just how upset is Jim Jong Un with Putin at this humiliating blow? ---------- We ran two events in Ukraine in the last two weeks. Lviv (part 2) and Kyiv. The event we ran in August 2023 was a huge success, and had a great impact. Now our aim is even more ambitious. Two cities. Two events. Multiple panels consisting of the best experts, and all filmed in high definition for the channel. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras But it costs. Last time the overall cost was £3,500 for Live in Lviv, and we covered 80% of this through ticket sales. This time the costs are higher, and there's less opportunity to sell tickets at the available venues and studios, so I'm creating a campaign to raise £5,000 to make this trip a reality. We also have a much more ambitious programme to film interviews around Kyiv and Lviv for the channel. This project will have an impact, so please help if you can. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- Neither Russia nor North Korea release casualty figures or even admit openly that those troops are fighting on Russian soil, but estimates suggest that out of some 11,000 troops sent to fight, 1,000 had been killed in just three months. Possibly far more are killed and injured. If the speculation is true, it suggests significant North Korean casualties, because of which they have been pulled off the front lines. The concern among Ukrainian experts and Western officials is that the withdrawal may not be permanent. There is a possibility of course, that North Korean soldiers could return after receiving additional training, and in far greater numbers. But the Russians would have to come up with new ways of deploying them to avoid a repeat of such heavy casualties. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- NEWS SOURCES: https://kyivindependent.com/north-korean-troops-not-seen-for-3-weeks-in-parts-of-kursk-oblast-ukraines-special-forces-say/ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjder8zgk48o https://www.politico.eu/article/north-korea-troops-removed-from-russia-ukraine-combat-seoul-spy-agency-nis-says/ https://kyivindependent.com/ukraines-strike-on-russian-command-post-kills-key-russian-north-korean-officers/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2025/01/15/north-korea-deployed-12000-troops-to-kursk-in-october-three-months-later-a-third-are-dead-or-wounded/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNkh5I_ZKQ4&t=472s ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

If you want to see where America is headed, watch The Bibi Files. The greatest threat to Israeli democracy, as well as peace for both Palestinians and Israelis, continues to be Bibi Netanyahu and his wife, Sara. Joining us this week are filmmakers Alexis Bloom, director of The Bibi Files, and producer Alex Gibney, who is also working on a documentary on Luigi Mangione and the corruption of the healthcare industry. Check the show notes for a link to watch The Bibi Files–one of the most chilling true crime dramas that show how corruption threatens international security. As you know by now, Nazi Elon Musk has a team of Hitler Youth dismantling our democracy. We're in a generational struggle, but history shows we can prevail. We defeated the genocidal traitors of the Confederacy, defeated the Nazis in World War II, and dismantled Jim Crow. Ignorance and hate are sadly human traits, but so are progress, collaboration, and the pursuit of a better future. Our role now is to be sand in their gears. You individually don't need to fight every battle, but if we each adopt just one cause that matters deeply to us and take action—by calling our representatives, showing up in person to talk them out of their fog of complacency, and primary every Democrat who is not meeting this moment—we can slow down the violence of the MAGA agenda and build political power of our own. And in doing so, we can safeguard a future where our families, communities, and the world enjoy a livable future. If there's one thing these broken little men fear, it's your defiance, your inner light, and your capacity for creative action. They want us demoralized, but we can be hopeful. Now more than ever, we need to come together. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Poet's don't typically compete for “coolest book cover,” and it's probably because Zbigniew Herbert won years ago. Today's poem is his tender look at poverty, pleasure, and irretrievable loss. Zbigniew Herbert was born on October 29, 1924, in Poland in the city of Lvov, which is now a part of the Ukraine. His grandfather was an Englishman who settled in Lvov to teach English. His father, a former member of the Legions that had fought for restoration of Poland's independence, was a bank manager. Herbert's formal education began in Lvov and continued under German occupation in the form of clandestine study at the underground King John Casimir University, where he majored in Polish literature. He was a member of the underground resistance movement. In 1944, he moved to Krakow, and three years later he graduated from the University of Krakow with a master's degree in economics. He also received a law degree from Nicholas Copernicus University in Torun and studied philosophy at the University of Warsaw under Henryk Elzenberg.During the 1950s, Herbert worked at many low-paying jobs because he refused to write within the framework of official Communist guidelines. After widespread riots against Soviet control in 1956 brought about a political “thaw,” Herbert became an administrator at the Union of Polish Composers and published his first collection, Struna swiatla [The Chord of Light] (Czytelnik, 1956). The book immediately placed him among the most prominent representatives of the “Contemporaries” (young poets and writers associated with the weekly Contemporary Times).In 1957, Herbert published his second collection of verse, Hermes, pies i gwiazda [Hermes, the Dog and the Star] (Czytelnik). Four years later, he published his third book of poems, Studium przedmiotu [Study of the Object] (Czytelnik, 1961). In 1968, his Selected Poems, translated into English by Czeslaw Milosz and Peter Dale Scott, was released in both the United States and England, making Herbert one of the most popular contemporary poets in the English-speaking world. In 1971, he released the first Polish edition of Selected Poems.Herbert's 1983 collection, Raport z oblezonego miasta i inne wiersze [Report from the Besieged City] (Instytut Literacki), dealt with the ethical problems Poland faced while under martial law. The book was issued simultaneously through an emigré publishing house and as an underground edition in Poland. He also published a number of essay collections and works of drama. In 1962, he released his famous work, Barbarzyńca wogrodzie [Barbarian in the Garden] (Czytelnik), which was eventually translated into numerous languages.Herbert's numerous awards include the Kościelski Foundation Prize, the Austrian Lenau Prize, the Alfred Jurzykowski Prize, the Herder Prize, the Petrarch Prize, the Bruno Schulz Prize, and the Jerusalem Prize for the Freedom of the Individual in Society.Herbert was a coeditor of the poetry journal Poezja from 1965 to 1968 but resigned in protest of antisemitic policies. He traveled widely throughout the West and lived in Paris, Berlin, and the United States, where he taught briefly at the University of California, Los Angeles. He died in Warsaw on July 28, 1998.-bio via Academy of American Poets This is a public episode.

Last night, Trump said that the U.S. should take over and “own” Gaza. Why? Because Trump believes it will enrich himself personally and because Trump is an autocrat, and like all good autocrats, Trump believes he has a right to anything. Freedom, sovereignty, and democracy can't get in his way. But please don't laugh at Trump. Take him seriously. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The 2025 Academy Award-nominated documentary “Porcelain War” tells the story of Ukrainian artists Slava Leontyev and Anya Stasenko as they defy the Russian invasion through their art and by aiding in the war effort. In the intricately painted porcelain figurines they create, the artists represent how their lives used to be — and their hopes for the future. Leontyev, Stasenko and producer Paula DuPré Pesmen join us to talk about the film and the power and fragility of art in the face of war. Later in the hour, we'll speak with former Ukraine ambassador Steven Pifer about the future of U.S. aid to Ukraine under the Trump Administration. Guests: Steven Pifer, affiliate, Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University; former ambassador, to Ukraine; former senior director, National Security Council in the Clinton administration Paula DuPré Pesmen, producer, “Porcelain War” Slava Leontyev, artist and co-director, “Porcelain War”

In this 13th straight solo episode, I get into human nature and how it shapes the crazy political landscape we're in right now. I talk about my fascination with the little details in life—how watching ants go about their business or admiring the brushstrokes of an impressionist painting can reveal so much about the way we think and create. There's something about art and creativity that AI just can't replace, and I dig into why that matters.Then, I shift gears and take a hard look at the Biden administration, breaking down what I think could be happening behind the scenes. Could Hunter Biden, Obama, and Jill Biden be more involved in corruption than we realize? I also get into the latest on US aid, the Ukraine conflict, and what these moves say about America's foreign policy.I also dive into the benefits of slowing down conversations, why free speech is non-negotiable, some solid negotiation techniques, the value of real friendships, and plenty more.
Kerry Lutz and Martin Armstrong discussed the political climate during Trump's administration, focusing on the accountability of government agencies and the judicial system. Marty criticized organizations like NATO for their diminishing relevance and highlighted systemic corruption within the banking sector, noting the lack of consequences for financial institutions. He expressed concerns about the judicial system, particularly in the Southern District of New York, and drew parallels between his legal challenges and the treatment of January 6 defendants. Both speakers emphasized the need for judicial reform, citing the inadequacies of public defenders and the challenges faced by individuals seeking fair legal representation. Marty also shared insights on economic strategies, expressing skepticism about cryptocurrencies and projecting a stock market target of 65,000 by 2032. He highlighted the U.S. government's significant debt burden and proposed innovative solutions, such as issuing stock investment certificates to manage this debt. Marty warned that current borrowing practices are inflationary and detrimental to the economy, advocating for a reduction in government debt to lower mortgage rates and stimulate private sector investment. The discussion extended to the economic crisis in Europe, the implications of the Ukraine conflict, and the potential impact on gold prices, with both speakers expressing anticipation for future economic developments.

According to recent reports - notably in the Financial Times - the EU is debating a return to Russian gas as part of a Ukraine peace deal, with officials from Germany and Hungary endorsing the idea. This discussion is unfolding as President Trump is threatening tariffs against the EU if it doesn't buy more American LNG, and as Europe grapples with the broader question of whether it needs to prepare for a post-America Europe. Max Bergmann, the director of the Europe, Russia, and Eurasia Program and the Stuart Center in Euro-Atlantic and Northern European Studies at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, joins Thanos Davelis as we look into this energy debate and the future of the US-Europe relationship.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:EU debates return to Russian gas as part of Ukraine peace dealTrump Needs a Plan to Get Europeans to Step Up on DefenseSyria's interim leader holds talks with key ally Turkey on his second international tripSantorini mass exodus ongoing as tremors persist

Interview with Ingvald, member of the “BIRDS OF FURY” unit of the Ukrainian armed forces. A unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that uses the «Backfire» unmanned aerial vehicle system which has been specially designed to destroy enemy forces and equipment. This drone can fly far beyond the front line, venting our fury on the enemy, and return home to pick up a new payload. The «Backfire» is immune to enemy radio electronic countermeasures, and like us, is ready to unleash its rightful rage against our genocidal invaders. However, we and our planes need your help to continue destroying the Russian occupiers before they come knocking on your door. ---------- LINKS: https://zlyizbir.org.ua/ https://zlyizbir.org.ua/en/ ---------- We ran two events in Ukraine in the last two weeks.

Edition No91 | 05-02-2025 - About 8 months ago I spotted an uptick in allusions to a certain narrative – the illegitimacy of Ukraine's president. His elected term formally ended in May 2024, but under the country's martial law no election can be held. Let's make this clear, it would be unconstitutional and unlawful for Zelenskyy to call an election. We'll examine the impracticality of this later. ---------- We ran two events in Ukraine in the last two weeks. Lviv (part 2) and Kyiv. The event we ran in August 2023 was a huge success, and had a great impact. Now our aim is even more ambitious. Two cities. Two events.

This project will have an impact, so please help if you can. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- More than five years have now passed since May 20, 2019, when Zelensky was sworn in to the Verkhovna Rada, and boldly stated: "Each of us is president." He was elected with 73.2% of ballots cast by voters who dreamt of change. Among his many promises of transformation was a key one to negotiate an end to the war in the Donbas. He also committed to end corruption, improve pensions, raise wages, and many other enticing promises. Instead, what he and Ukraine got was war – full-scale, brutal and destructive, imperial, genocidal, relentless. The former comedian turned war leader has changed beyond recognition. Physically of course the impact of war has been obvious. But he has also matured into a great speaker, persuader and one of the most iconic war leaders of history. His words have matured, his face has hardened, his beard has grown. Zelensky now only appears in combat fatigues, an outfit that has remained unchanged since the invasion of February 24, 2022. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- NEWS SOURCES: https://www.rferl.org/a/trump-ukraine-peace-elections/33303303.html https://kyivindependent.com/us-urges-ukraine-to-hold-elections-after-ceasefire-trumps-envoy-tells-reuters/ https://unherd.com/newsroom/america-should-not-pressure-ukraine-into-elections/ https://news.sky.com/story/us-wants-ukraine-to-hold-elections-following-potential-ceasefire-trump-envoy-says-13301316 https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-freak-out-us-russia-push-election/ https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2024/05/23/volodymyr-zelensky-a-president-with-no-term-end_6672475_4.html ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ----------

Ruslands såkaldte skyggeflåde sejler rundt i vores farvande for at kringle sig uden om Vestens sanktioner. De kæmpestore olieskibe har uigennemskuelige ejerforhold og tvivlsomme tilladelser og forsikringer. Og så har de lasten fuld af russisk olie, som kan finansiere Putins krig i Ukraine. Og sejlruten? Den går lige igennem Danmark. Og som om det ikke var nok, at skibene undergraver Europas sanktioner mod russisk olie, så udgør flådens gamle skibe også sikkerhedsrisiko for vores have og kyster. I dette afsnit af ‘Du lytter til Politiken’ forklarer graverjournalist Jakob Kjøgx Bohr fra mediet Danwatch, hvordan de skibe, der får Putins beskidte olieeventyr til at lykkes, kommer fra danske rederier som Mærsk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
