Today on the show, Joe dives straight into the political pressure cooker with a hard-hitting look at the stakes facing the country ahead of the upcoming elections. Opening with commentary on recent takes from the Hodge Twins, Joe sets up a chilling warning from conservative commentator Wayne Allyn Root, who argues that the political establishment will stop at nothing if power shifts. Wayne joins the broadcast to break down his high-stakes strategy for securing election integrity, laying out his case for why traditional legislative paths like the SAVE Act fall short and explaining his push for a national security emergency to protect the vote.Then the focus turns to systemic corruption and the breakdown of public trust. Joe examines eye-opening testimony from election workers, the mainstream media's dismissal of fraud concerns, and the stark divide between everyday working Americans and political insiders. The show pulls no punches, highlighting recent high-profile moments from establishment leaders alongside controversial federal spending priorities—including a breakdown of what that taxpayer money would look like if returned directly to citizen pockets.To round out the evening, Joe takes aim at foreign policy and the state of global democracy, unpacking recent statements from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky regarding the impossibility of holding elections during wartime. Bringing together grassroots frustration, media gaslighting, and the ongoing fight for transparent governance, this episode delivers a fiery, unfiltered breakdown of the forces shaping our nation's future. Tune in for an uncompromising look at the fight to secure our system.

The post-war international order is under increasing strain. The principle that borders cannot be changed by force is being challenged –not only by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but by Donald Trump's threats to seize Greenland, his undermining of longstanding alliances and his willingness to use military force abroad.In his new book, Betrayal, Guardian foreign correspondent Luke Harding argues that today's world resembles not a new Cold War, defined by ideological rivalry, but a return to ‘Great Power' politics, driven by military strength and national self-interest.In September 2026, Harding joined former Downing Street Director of Communications Alastair Campbell to examine how Trump and Putin are reshaping global politics. Drawing on Harding's reporting from Ukraine and conversations with leaders including Volodymyr Zelensky, they explored how an era defined by liberal democracy, international cooperation and the rule of law is giving way to one increasingly defined by power, coercion and nationalism.Join two of the UK's leading voices on politics and foreign affairs for an essential conversation on the forces reshaping the world –and what they mean for the future of democracy, security and the international order. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman open on Dario Amodei's call to slow down AI development and why we should be worried when both Sam Altman and Elon Musk agree with him. Donald Trump responded that the whole thing is a sick conspiracy because, of course he did. They work through who actually benefits when an industry starts begging to be regulated, why a bubble this size might need to become a national security emergency to survive, and what it means that the quickest way to get what you want is to frighten people out of thinking. Then the Middle East, where the Houthis took Mayun island and closed the Red Sea route that was supposed to be the answer to the Strait of Hormuz, while drones launched out of Iraq and tore up the East-West pipeline . From there, the BRICS nations met in New Delhi and called for a multipolar world while Donald Trump blames Volodymyr Zelensky for diesel prices: good times. They make the case that the alternative order arriving now isn't better, only newer, and that the United States has spent the past year assembling it on the other side's behalf.

C dans l'air du 15 septembre 2026 - Bab el-Mandeb : autre détroit, même piège C'est une nouvelle menace pour l'économie mondiale. Après le détroit d'Ormuz, la prise du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb par les rebelles houthis, alliés de l'Iran, fait craindre une nouvelle flambée sur les marchés des hydrocarbures.Car ce passage maritime est essentiel. Depuis la fermeture du détroit d'Ormuz, l'Arabie saoudite y faisait transiter une partie de ses exportations de pétrole. Mais le problème ne concerne pas seulement l'or noir. Bab el-Mandeb commande l'accès méridional à la mer Rouge et, par conséquent, au canal de Suez.Pétrole, gaz, conteneurs, automobiles, vêtements, engrais, céréales, composants électroniques… Une grande partie des marchandises qui circulent entre l'Asie et l'Europe emprunte cette route. En temps normal, environ 12 % du commerce mondial passe par le canal de Suez et la mer Rouge. Pour les grands porte-conteneurs, la proportion atteint près de 30 %. Une fermeture de Bab el-Mandeb pourrait donc provoquer un choc majeur pour l'économie mondiale. Des conséquences « catastrophiques », a averti ce mardi le Qatar.Cette mise en garde intervient alors que la situation militaire se tend au Yémen. Les rebelles houthis, soutenus par l'Iran, ont atteint ces derniers jours la ville yéménite de Dhubab et pris le contrôle de l'île de Perim, située au milieu du passage maritime. Pour l'heure, les Houthis se veulent rassurants. Ils affirment que la navigation reste ouverte, à l'exception des navires saoudiens et israéliens.Mais que se passerait-il si le détroit venait réellement à être bloqué ? Pour les navires, il ne resterait alors qu'une solution : contourner l'Afrique. Un détour considérable, plus long et surtout beaucoup plus coûteux, qui pourrait encore renchérir le prix du transport des marchandises.Entre la paralysie du détroit d'Ormuz et la prise de contrôle, par les Houthis, d'une grande partie du littoral de la mer Rouge au Yémen, les approvisionnements en pétrole deviennent de plus en plus difficiles. Le cours du baril, qui faisait jusqu'à présent du yo-yo, s'est remis à flamber.Une situation particulièrement sensible aux États-Unis, où la colère monte à l'approche des élections de mi-mandat. Dans ce contexte, Donald Trump a refusé de frapper les rebelles yéménites, comme le lui a demandé son allié, l'Arabie saoudite. Le président américain a en revanche demandé à son homologue ukrainien, Volodymyr Zelensky, d'« arrêter » d'attaquer les raffineries de diesel en Russie. Il l'accuse de provoquer une « pénurie ».En France, la colère monte aussi. Une cinquantaine de pêcheurs ont bloqué, ce mardi jusqu'en milieu de matinée, les accès à un dépôt pétrolier de Fos-sur-Mer, pour protester contre la hausse des coûts d'exploitation. Les prix du carburant mettent en difficulté de nombreux secteurs. Et sur les réseaux sociaux, les appels à la mobilisation contre la vie chère se multiplient dans plusieurs villes de France. Certains appellent même à un retour des Gilets jaunes en octobre.Nos experts :- PHILIPPE DESSERTINE - Économiste, professeur à l'Université IAE Paris Panthéon Sorbonne, auteur de « L'horizon des possibles »- ALAIN BAUER - Professeur émérite - Conservatoire national des Arts et Métiers- PATRICIA ALLÉMONIÈRE - Grand reporter, spécialiste des questions internationales - YARA RIZK - Journaliste économique et financière, rédactrice en chef adjointe à CFNews

C dans l'air du 14 septembre 2026 - Un train visé à deux kilomètres de la Pologne et des personnalités politiques occidentales frôlées par les bombes. L'Ukraine et la Pologne ont dénoncé, ce dimanche 13 septembre, des frappes russes qui ont endommagé un train de voyageurs à destination de Varsovie, à la gare de Iagodyne, tout près de la frontière avec la Pologne, où un autre convoi transportant des personnalités européennes venait de passer.Selon l'opérateur ferroviaire ukrainien Ukrzaliznytsia, le train diplomatique transportait d'anciens dirigeants européens, dont les anciens Premiers ministres Boris Johnson (Royaume-Uni) et Carl Bildt (Suède), ainsi que des ministres, des parlementaires et des diplomates dépêchés par des membres de l'Union européenne (UE) et de l'Otan. Le train avait quitté la gare de Iagodyne plus tôt que prévu, en raison de l'ajustement en temps réel des horaires face à la menace de frappes russes.

For review:1. Report: The Trump administration secretly explored an energy deal with Cuba earlier this year that would have provided US oil and investment to the island in exchange for major economic and political changes, according to media reports.Miami Herald: "The deal with Cuba, while much smaller in its scale would have sent shockwaves throughout the Cuban government establishment, as it was also tied to a demand that the country's handpicked president, Miguel Diaz-Canel, seen as an incompetent figurehead by Trump administration officials, leave power."2. Houthi fighters on Sunday said they used drones and missiles to attack a military base in southern Saudi Arabia.The attack at the southern Sharurah base targeted “weapons depots and command and control centers that are managing the aggression against our nation and people,” Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree wrote on X.The date of the operation was not specified. 3. Chinese entities supplied Iran with high-quality satellite imagery of a US Air Force base in Jordan both before and after Tehran launched a deadly ballistic missile attack on the facility on July 17, The Wall Street Journal reported Saturday, citing US officials familiar with the matter.4. Moscow is now striking targets indiscriminately across Ukraine in response to Kyiv's intensified attacks on Russian territory, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Sept. 13.Peskov claimed Russia had previously avoided indiscriminate strikes but changed its approach after Ukraine began targeting Russian economic and strategic infrastructure.5. Canada and Ukraine have signed a long-term defense agreement to jointly produce uncrewed technologies, counter-drone systems, and munitions.During a visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Calgary, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on Thursday a series of deals to support the war-torn country as part of a “100-year partnership.” 6. Finnish space company ICEYE and Poland's state-run defense giant PGZ have signed a letter of intent to jointly develop a military satellite communications system.Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said the project will pave the way for the launch of a Starlink-like system for the nation.In a statement, PGZ said that the program is to be implemented from 2026 to 2030.

In this segment Jimmy discusses a new report that UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu roughly 10 days before October 7, 2023, that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was planning a major operation that could destabilize the region. The report, published by Haaretz and based on reporting by Israeli journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruth Yuval, says the warning came during a reported 45-minute phone call, while Netanyahu's office has strongly denied that the call or warning occurred and the UAE has declined to confirm or deny the specific conversation.  Jimmy connects the report to earlier reporting that Israeli officials had obtained Hamas's attack plan before October 7 and to broader questions about intelligence failures, while he mocks late-to-the-party Piers Morgan for being shocked and outraged by these reports. The segment concludes with Jimmy discussing an upcoming appearance on Morgan's program to debate skepticism of the official 9/11 narrative.

C dans l'air du 10 septembre 2026 - Poutine a-t-il tenté d'éliminer Zélensky? Que s'est-il passé dans le ciel moldave ? Alors qu'il quittait la Moldavie pour la Norvège, l'avion de Volodymyr Zelensky a failli être percuté par un drone, selon le Premier ministre norvégien. La présidence ukrainienne évoque plutôt une alerte après qu'un drone russe a pénétré dans l'espace aérien de la Moldavie et de la Roumanie. Si les versions sont plus ou moins inquiétantes selon les sources, il s'est bien passé quelque chose puisque le porte-parole du gouvernement moldave a indiqué que son pays avait fermé son espace aérien. Le drone, lui, serait tombé à 160 kilomètres de l'aéroport international de Chișinău.Un incident qui relance les inquiétudes autour de la sécurité de Volodymyr Zelensky, placé sous haute sécurité. Plusieurs drones avaient déjà été repérés en décembre 2025 sur la trajectoire de l'avion du président ukrainien en Irlande. Volodymyr Zelensky est-il en danger ? Y a-t-il des taupes dans l'entourage du président ukrainien ?Il est de notoriété publique que Volodymyr Zelensky doit de plus en plus gérer des divisions internes, au moment où les pressions liées à la guerre face à la Russie et sur le plan diplomatique se renforcent. Selon plusieurs médias ukrainiens, une fusillade s'est déroulée le 2 septembre dernier dans la capitale de l'Ukraine, opposant des membres des deux grands organes de sécurité du pays : les services de sécurité (SBU) et le renseignement militaire (GUR). Le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky a qualifié l'incident de « honte absolue » et a ordonné une enquête.Depuis plusieurs mois, l'Ukraine fait monter en puissance ses frappes à longue portée, visant de plus en plus souvent des infrastructures civiles telles que des entrepôts logistiques et des sites pétroliers et portuaires. Des tirs qui provoquent malaise et inquiétude dans la population russe, sèment le doute sur la capacité du pouvoir à protéger le pays et impactent l'économie russe. La popularité de Vladimir Poutine baisse et inquiète le Kremlin à l'approche des élections législatives. Si la victoire du parti du président russe à ce scrutin, organisé le 20 septembre prochain, ne fait pas le moindre doute, la colère monte dans une partie de la population et le détracteur du Kremlin Ilya Iachine tente de mobiliser l'opposition. En exil, l'opposant russe a appelé tous les « Russes opposés à la guerre » en Ukraine à voter contre Vladimir Poutine aux élections législatives.Selon un rapport des services de renseignement européens, Vladimir Poutine s'inquiéterait grandement de sa sécurité. Il passerait désormais une grande partie de son temps confiné dans des bunkers ultra-sécurisés et aurait décidé, au mois d'août, de renforcer sa garde rapprochée, qui dépasse désormais 800 personnes, sur fond de craintes d'attentat, de coup d'État et d'escalade militaire.Nos journalistes ont pu rencontrer Iryna Terekh, qui dirige l'entreprise de défense Fire Point, devenue l'un des fers de lance des capacités ukrainiennes de frappe en profondeur contre la Russie.

The far right gets a huge win in Germany, Serbia celebrates a war criminal, and Nigel Farage gets caught on camera breaking the law.Tommy and Ben dig into the ultra-right-wing AfD party's historic results in a regional election, what drove it, what it would mean if they actually form a coalition government, and what it says about the state of European politics more broadly. Trump's dumb and dumber team of negotiators (Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff) return from a busy weekend traveling to Moscow meeting with Vladimir Putin, and their first trip to Ukraine to meet with Volodymyr Zelensky on a train they named the “Peace Express.” In Serbia, convicted genocide architect Ratko Mladić is given a funeral fit for a national hero, which doesn't bode well for the country's pathway into the EU. The UK's new Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband announces a sweeping shift in British policy toward Israeli settlements, and a bombshell Haaretz investigation reveals that Netanyahu received a direct warning from the UAE about a major Hamas attack ten days before October 7th. There are nothing but bad updates in the fallout from the war with Iran, including tit-for-tat strikes, mass polygraph tests at the Pentagon, and the dangerous escalation of the Saudi-Houthi conflict. And finally, a Channel 4 investigation catches Nigel Farage on camera conspiring to illegally solicit foreign donations. At the end of the show, Ben speaks to Lawrence Wright, author of The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11 about what we have and haven't learned 25 years after the 9/11 attacks.You can request a transcript by emailing transcripts@crooked.com.

C dans l'air du 4 septembre 2026 - Allemagne / Russie : « une situation proche de la guerre » Les actes hostiles attribués à la Russie se multiplient sur le Vieux Continent, et l'Europe change de ton vis-à-vis de Moscou. Berlin, en particulier, a annoncé, le 1er septembre, des mesures de rétorsion après avoir identifié une filière russe dans un projet d'attentat qui a visé l'aéroport de Leipzig en août. « Nous sommes dans une situation proche de la guerre », a prévenu le maire de Leipzig, Burkhard Jung. Dans la foulée, Copenhague a tiré la sonnette d'alarme. La Russie prépare « activement » des actions de sabotage contre le Danemark, et particulièrement contre son industrie de défense, ont affirmé jeudi les services de renseignement du royaume scandinave. Moscou chercherait notamment à recruter des citoyens ordinaires sur les réseaux sociaux pour recueillir des informations sur des infrastructures ou des sites industriels.L'inquiétude s'étend également aux réseaux électriques européens. La menace se précise, comme en Pologne, où une cyberattaque contre le réseau électrique a été déjouée en début d'année, évitant un blackout, ou en Allemagne, confrontée depuis plusieurs jours à de mystérieux sabotages visant son réseau à la veille d'une élection régionale cruciale en Saxe-Anhalt.Drones explosifs, sabotage, espionnage, opérations d'influence… Ces événements ne sont plus considérés comme des incidents isolés par les Européens. À Bruxelles, Ursula von der Leyen et Kaja Kallas appellent à renforcer la réponse européenne contre « ces attaques hybrides », tandis qu'Emmanuel Macron dénonce « une ingérence » et « une guerre hybride » de la Russie.Car la France est, elle aussi, dans le viseur. Depuis plusieurs années, les autorités françaises alertent sur la multiplication des campagnes de déstabilisation attribuées à Moscou. Cyberattaques, désinformation, manipulations sur les réseaux sociaux, opérations clandestines : les méthodes sont multiples et évoluent rapidement. La France a déjà été confrontée à plusieurs campagnes destinées à semer le doute et à provoquer des tensions dans l'opinion, comme l'affaire des « mains rouges ». À l'approche de nouvelles échéances électorales, la menace prend une dimension particulière. Les responsables politiques et les candidats peuvent devenir des cibles privilégiées de campagnes de manipulation visant à perturber le débat public et à influencer les électeurs. Cette guerre de l'ombre se joue également sur le terrain ukrainien. Volodymyr Zelensky a progressivement fait évoluer sa stratégie en misant de plus en plus sur les frappes en profondeur en Russie. L'objectif : atteindre les infrastructures militaires, les dépôts de munitions, les centres logistiques et les sites industriels situés loin derrière la ligne de front. En portant le conflit au cœur du territoire russe, Kiev cherche à perturber la machine de guerre de Vladimir Poutine et à rendre la guerre plus coûteuse pour Moscou.Derrière cette stratégie se trouve une transformation spectaculaire de l'industrie de défense ukrainienne. De petites entreprises capables de produire rapidement différents types de drones côtoient désormais des acteurs industriels beaucoup plus importants. C'est le cas de FirePoint, devenue l'une des entreprises emblématiques de cette nouvelle industrie de défense ukrainienne, qui développe notamment des drones de frappe à longue portée et des missiles.Nos experts :- Lucas MENGET - Grand reporter, spécialiste des questions internationales- Joséphine STARON - Directrice des études et des relations internationales du Think Tank Synopia et docteur en philosophie- Véronika DORMAN - Journaliste spécialiste de la Russie à Libération, ancienne correspondante à Moscou- Vincent CROUZET - Ancien espion de la DGSE, expert en renseignement et auteur de "Le jour où je suis devenu espion

C dans l'air du 2 septembre 2026 - Poutine: "ils vont me pendre!" Alors que la guerre en Ukraine s'enlise et que l'hiver approche, la Russie et l'OTAN s'approchent-elles dangereusement de la « ligne rouge » ? Après plusieurs semaines d'enquête, l'Allemagne a accusé ce mardi 1er septembre la Russie de Vladimir Poutine d'être derrière la tentative d'attaque menée, début août, avec un drone chargé d'explosifs à l'aéroport de Leipzig, une plateforme stratégique pour l'armée allemande, l'OTAN ainsi que pour le soutien logistique à l'Ukraine. En représailles, Berlin a annoncé la fermeture, dès le 18 septembre, du dernier consulat russe sur son territoire, à Bonn, et de la Maison russe de Berlin, un centre culturel soupçonné de servir de couverture aux services de renseignement russes. Plusieurs pays européens réclament également des sanctions. Preuve d'une tension qui monte entre le Kremlin et les Occidentaux, le patron de l'OTAN a immédiatement réagi : « L'OTAN se tient pleinement aux côtés de l'Allemagne après l'attaque hybride russe à Leipzig », a assuré Mark Rutte sur le réseau social X.Sur le terrain, la Russie intensifie ses frappes sur les infrastructures essentielles, près de Kiev, à Odessa ou encore sur la ville de Kherson, où les habitants ont été appelés à évacuer face au danger des bombardements qui risquent de laisser la ville sans électricité ni chauffage avant l'hiver. L'hiver dernier, l'armée russe avait frappé à répétition les centrales électriques ukrainiennes, plongeant par moments des millions de personnes dans le froid et le noir. Avant même la chute des températures de l'automne, les autorités redoutent un scénario encore pire : début août, le président Volodymyr Zelensky a prévenu que l'Ukraine n'avait « quasiment plus aucune centrale thermique intacte ».Depuis plusieurs mois, la Russie et l'Ukraine font monter en puissance leurs frappes à longue portée, visant de plus en plus souvent des infrastructures civiles telles que des entrepôts logistiques et des sites pétroliers et portuaires. Des tirs qui provoquent malaise et inquiétude dans la population russe, sèment le doute sur la capacité du pouvoir à protéger le pays et impactent l'économie russe. La popularité de Vladimir Poutine baisse et inquiète le Kremlin. Une première pour l'homme fort de la Russie, qui passerait désormais une grande partie de son temps confiné dans des bunkers ultra-sécurisés et aurait décidé, au mois d'août, de renforcer sa garde rapprochée, qui dépasse désormais 800 personnes, sur fond de craintes d'attentat, de coup d'État et d'escalade militaire.Alors que la guerre dure depuis 2022, quelle est la situation en Ukraine et en Russie ? Fragilisé, Vladimir Poutine est-il tenté par l'escalade ? Jusqu'où ? Que s'est-il passé à l'aéroport de Leipzig début août ? Pourquoi l'Allemagne accuse-t-elle désormais la Russie ? Face à la guerre hybride russe, quelle réponse européenne ? Pour la première fois depuis novembre 2021, un directeur de la CIA s'est rendu en Russie le 25 août dernier. La CIA a-t-elle mis en garde la Russie contre une agression visant l'Otan ?Nos experts :- Dominique TRINQUAND - Ancien chef de la mission militaire française auprès de l'ONU- Paul GOGO - Journaliste indépendant et ancien correspondant en Russie- Marion VAN RENTERGHEM - Grand reporter, chroniqueuse à L'Express, et spécialiste des questions européennes- Philippe GÉLIE - Directeur adjoint de la rédaction Le Figaro- Aude BARIÉTY DE LAGARDE ( en duplex de Berlin) - Journaliste correspondante en Allemagne pour Le Figaro

Ivana Stradner analyzes Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's visit to Belgrade, which does not signal a split between Serbia and Russia. President Vučić's weapons sales to Ukraine are merely lucrative business deals. Serbia remains highly dependent on Russia, sharing deep intelligence ties and cooperating with the FSB to test crowd-control equipment. Vučić balances these relationships to survive domestic protests sparked by environmental concerns and a severe heatwave. Stradner, recently returning from Israel, reports that Israeli morale remains exceptionally high despite facing a multi-front threat from Iran's proxy network, which Russia continues to exploit through regional propaganda and strategic manipulation.

CONTENTS THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 8-24-2026.OTTAWAConrad Black and co-host Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss the collapse of trade negotiations and subsequent US tariff threats that have sparked a major political crisis in Canada, leading to opposition calls to immediately reconvene Parliament. Black describes a stark contrast in national attitudes, noting that President Trump's rhetoric effectively denies Canada's sovereignty. This perceived affront has deeply united Canadians across party lines, who view the tariffs as an assault on national identity rather than a mere commercial dispute. Black highlights potential Republican electoral fallout in key US Senate races like Maine and Michigan, and suggests a bilateral phone call could resolve the dispute. (1)Janatyn Sayeh and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine Iranian official Ghalibaf's public appearance in Iraq, signaling defiance to the US and Israel before secondary sanctions are revealed. Sayeh explains that Iran views Iraq as its backyard, using it to evade sanctions by blending Iranian oil with Iraqi exports. Under President Trump, US economic scrutiny on Iraq has increased to block this smuggling. While maximum pressure has devalued Iran's currency and caused hyperinflation, Iran aims to overwhelm Washington by utilizing its regional proxy networks across Yemen, Lebanon, and Iraq. The US must view these proxies as Iranian arms rather than local actors. (2)Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa, with Edmund Fitton-Brown: In Brazil, falling poll numbers have panicked President Lula, prompting him to call Donald Trump despite years of anti-American rhetoric. Araújo explains this reflects the US's central role in combating South American "narcosocialist" regimes. Meanwhile, in Venezuela, Delcyand Jorge Rodríguez are simulating cooperation with the US while delaying presidential elections to buy time. Peña Esclusa notes that Venezuelan opposition members are negotiating Supreme Court appointments rather than election dates or political prisoners. Both guests will attend Slovenia's Bled Strategic Forum to discuss Latin America's right-wing political shift and potential energy partnerships with Europe. (3)Malcolm Hoenlein and Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss rising security concerns in Israel after incendiary balloons from Gaza were discovered, potentially testing Israel's border preparedness. Concurrently, Turkey is expanding its regional footprint, occupying 5% of Syria and attempting to establish military bases, which Israel countered with airstrikes. In Gaza, Jared Kushner met with Hamas in Cairo, a move that critics argue bolsters the group's status despite declining local support. Meanwhile, the US Treasury has previewed secondary sanctions on Iranian trading partners, including China. Iran's economy is in collapse, with inflation skyrocketing and the currency reaching an all-time low. (4)David Daoud and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine UNIFIL's mandate, which restricts it to acting as an auxiliary to the Lebanese Armed Forces, preventing independent disarmament of Hezbollah. Consequently, Hezbollah operates freely near UN watchtowers and tunnel networks. Daoud argues that while new US Treasury sanctions expanding target parameters to include Iranian violations are positive, they fail to address Hezbollah's deep integration into Lebanon's socio-political fabric. To be effective, the West must treat Hezbollah as a Lebanese entity with sovereign responsibilities, rather than purely an Iranian proxy. True security requires targeting all of Hezbollah's activities, including its social and political wings. (5)Ivana Stradner and Edmund Fitton-Brown analyze Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's visit to Belgrade, which does not signal a split between Serbia and Russia. President Vučić's weapons sales to Ukraine are merely lucrative business deals. Serbia remains highly dependent on Russia, sharing deep intelligence ties and cooperating with the FSB to test crowd-control equipment. Vučić balances these relationships to survive domestic protests sparked by environmental concerns and a severe heatwave. Stradner, recently returning from Israel, reports that Israeli morale remains exceptionally high despite facing a multi-front threat from Iran's proxy network, which Russia continues to exploit through regional propaganda and strategic manipulation. (6)Edmund Fitton-Brown critiques the term "economic D-Day," explaining that Pakistan's mediation in Iran is self-interested, driven by fears of secondary US sanctions. These sanctions have suffocated Iran's economy, reducing oil exports and sparking hyperinflation. Iraq also struggles with contradictory policies, balancing its US alliance with pro-Iranian gestures, such as securing tanker passage through the Strait of Hormuz. In the Red Sea, the Houthis demand tribute from Saudi Arabia to halt attacks on tankers and pipelines. Fitton-Brown warns that paying the Houthis only delays their long-term expansionist goals against Saudi territory and Israel. (7)Samuel Ben-Ur and Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss how, following a temporary lull, Hamas has intensified attacks in Gaza, emboldened by disarmament frameworks proposed by Egyptian, Qatari, and Turkish mediators. Ben-Ur notes Hamas only accepted the deal under the pretense of disarming while intending to survive intact. However, following Jared Kushner's visit, the US aligned with Israel's stance, demanding total disarmament before military withdrawal. Fitton-Brown and Ben-Ur discuss the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (ENCAG), a secular government planned to replace Hamas. Lacking military power, ENCAG's deployment depends on an international stabilization force, though troop commitments remain severely short. (8)Michael Sobolik and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine how Chinese AI company Moonshot bypassed US export controls by "distilling" technology from Anthropic's Claude Opus model to train its own system, Kimi K3. This intellectual property theft threatens American market dominance and national security. Sobolik recommends three policy actions: imposing crushing financial sanctions on violating Chinese firms, closing export control loopholes related to remote cloud access, and banning open CCP models in the United States. He warns that American tech companies prioritizing short-term profits over security risk losing the AI race, mirroring historical patterns of Chinese piracy. (9)John Hardie and Edmund Fitton-Brown outline Russia's military assistance to Iran via the Caspian Sea, a highly secure transit route. This collaboration benefits Moscow by raising energy prices and draining US munition stockpiles like Patriot interceptors, giving Russia a freer hand in Ukraine. Russia provides Iran with tactical intelligence, drone components to resist satellite jamming, and has agreed to deliver shoulder-launched air defense missiles. While Ukraine and Israel have attempted long-range strikes against trade vessels and ports to disrupt this flow, interdiction is difficult because the Caspian Sea operates as a protected, non-transparent Russian-Iranian military lake. (10)Standing corrections applied: Janatyn Sayeh, Ernesto Araújo, Alejandro Peña Esclusa, Delcy Rodríguez (and Jorge Rodríguez), Zelenskyy, Vučić with diacritics, and Kimi K3 (source again had "Kimmy"). One anomaly in the source: segment 7 listed Fitton-Brown as both guest and co-host, so I've formatted it as his solo segment — flag it if there was a second voice in that file.
