In a recent essay in Foreign Affairs, the scholar and former U.S. official Ashley J. Tellis makes a provocative argument about India's foreign policy. In a piece titled “India's Great-Power Delusions,” Tellis argues that Indian policymakers have their priorities wrong. Instead of pushing for what they call “multipolarity” in the international system, Indian leaders should align more closely with the United States. Tellis insists that India will be able to fend off China, its far stronger rival in Asia, only with U.S. backing. But it may lose that support if it continues to express skepticism about U.S. leadership and courts U.S. adversaries. Tellis's essay has provoked huge debate—in Washington, in New Delhi, and in the pages of Foreign Affairs. In this episode, Dan Kurtz-Phelan brings Tellis into conversation with two of his critics: the former Indian foreign secretary Nirupama Rao and the analyst Dhruva Jaishankar. Kurtz-Phelan spoke with them on July 25, a few days before the Trump administration announced 25 percent tariffs on India, the latest twist in ongoing negotiations with New Delhi over a new trade deal. Tellis, Rao, and Jaishankar debate India's pathways to power in the September/October 2025 issue of Foreign Affairs. Their disagreements touch not just on the directions of Indian and U.S. foreign policies but also on the very nature of international order in the twenty-first century.

Social Security is one of the most widely-used government programs in the country, but how much does the average American know about how it works? From eligibility and benefit amounts to how the trust fund is structured, this hour we’re offering a crash course on Social Security and how the federal program's uncertain future is impacting the retirement plans of people here in Connecticut. We’ll ask what’s driving concerns about the fund's long-term solvency, and what Congress might do about it.

In a sweeping decision with far-reaching consequences, Congress has officially cut federal funding for public media with the passage of the Rescissions Act of 2025.

Pensioners camped out in a Waikato carpark are facing an uncertain future after years living on the site, but the carkpark owner says most of them cant afford to go anywhere else. The Classics Museum in the Hamilton suburb of Frankton has allowed people living in campervans to park on its land for $50 a week. Many of them are elderly and on low incomes; some of them have been there for years. But it is a breach of the museum's resource consent that only allows limited short term stays. Now Hamilton City Council has put the landowner on notice. Classics Museum Owner Tom Andrews spoke to Lisa Owen.

Listeners, the most talked-about news surrounding Sean Combs—known to the world as Puffy, P Diddy, or simply Diddy—centers on the dramatic conclusion of his federal trial in New York, a saga that has captivated global attention in 2025. Just last week, Diddy was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution after a marathon seven-week trial and intense jury deliberations. However, the jury acquitted him of the most serious charges: sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. Despite Diddy turning to his family and declaring “I'm coming home, baby” once the verdict was read, Judge Arun Subramanian denied his bail. Diddy remains incarcerated as he awaits sentencing, with a key hearing scheduled for July 8 and a proposed sentencing date of October 3, 2025. Prosecutors argued that his immense wealth made him a flight risk, and the judge agreed that mandatory detention was necessary while legal proceedings continue.Diddy, whose business acumen once made him a paragon of Black excellence and the first billionaire in hip-hop, now faces a drastically altered legacy. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Diddy's fortune stands at about $400 million, a steep drop after the collapse of key business partnerships, including the end of his lucrative Diageo deal and the sale of his stake in Revolt TV, all triggered by the wave of allegations and legal unraveling that began in 2023. His financial history includes earnings of up to $1 billion from liquor partnerships and real estate holdings, but legal and reputational fallout have struck hard.The cultural impact of this trial has been immense. Diddy's personal life and business empire were dissected in court and across media worldwide. In 2025 alone, both Peacock and Investigation Discovery released documentaries scrutinizing his life's arc—from Harlem's music producer to a brand-building, headline-dominating mogul now facing conviction. As Nicola Tallant reported on the Crime World podcast, the state's bid to convict Diddy on the most severe racketeering charges failed, but the two guilty verdicts mean he faces serious sentencing and lasting damage to his brand.Whether Diddy can rebound from these convictions and what his sentencing will mean for his future remain the questions at the heart of today's headlines. For now, Diddy's story stands as a cautionary tale, marking a stunning reversal for one of music and business's most influential figures.

Sean Combs, also known as Puffy or P Diddy, is facing a dramatic turning point in both his personal and professional life after the conclusion of his high-profile federal trial in Manhattan on July 2, 2025. The jury delivered a mixed verdict: Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion in relation to both Cassie Ventura and another woman known as “Jane.” However, he was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, one for Ventura and one for "Jane." Each count carries a maximum sentence of 10 years. Despite being visibly emotional and telling his family, "I'm coming home, baby!" after hearing the verdict, the judge denied bail and Combs remains incarcerated while awaiting sentencing, which is expected to become a major media event according to ABC News.The fallout from the trial has been severe for Combs' once-vaunted business empire. As Eurweb reports, his clothing line Sean John has disappeared from major retailers and his departure from Revolt TV marked the end of his presence in network media. His Empower Global platform, once meant as a boost for Black-owned businesses, has lost support as brands distanced themselves over his legal issues. Deals, such as a Hulu reality series, have collapsed amid the scandal. Honors once bestowed upon him, including an honorary degree from Howard University and New York City's ceremonial key, have been rescinded. Importantly, public backlash intensified after footage surfaced showing Combs assaulting Ventura, and his Harlem charter school has now severed connections.Financially, Combs' fortune has taken a substantial hit. According to Merca20, his net worth for 2025 stands at about $400 million, dropping sharply from $600 million at the start of his legal troubles in 2024. Once close to a billion dollars, his wealth has dwindled due to settlements, the collapse of partnerships—most notably his split with Diageo, the company behind Ciroc and DeLeon spirits—and mounting legal fees. While Bad Boy Records, Combs' historic music label, remains operational and his catalog continues to stream on major platforms, his business stature is much diminished.Civil litigation continues to pile up, including a new $10 million lawsuit from Edmond Laurent, a former model and dancer, alleging sexual assault involving Combs and others in the late 2000s. Prosecutors may also pursue asset forfeiture for properties linked to his convictions, leaving his remaining wealth and influence increasingly precarious. As he awaits sentencing and possible appeals, Sean Combs' future, both as a mogul and as a public figure, hangs in the balance.

On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones discusses the Ace Bailey saga, LeBron James' future and the Malik Beasley investigation. Bo starts off the show by asking what did Ace Bailey actually want out of all of this (1:28) and whoever was representing him was making terrible decisions (11:57). Bo moves onto LeBron James opting into his $52M deal with the Lakers which makes life difficult for Rich Paul (13:36) and begs the question - is LeBron still severely underpaid (14:28) ? Bo rounds out the basketball discussion by saying Malik Beasley betting on props won't bother the general public (26:20) but why this will continue to ruin the integrity of the sport as long as we can bet from our phones (29:40). And finally, we have another round of If You Haven't Heard stories involving weight loss products, air conditioning in the summer and a dating app based on your search history (35:28).

When the Trump administration moved in April to cancel about half a billion dollars in Department of Justice grants, it said the programs didn't align with the administration's priorities. But many of the programs targeted for cuts seem to be doing exactly the things the administration says it's focused on. Reporter: Marisa Lagos, KQED Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire after more than a week of exchanging bombs and missile fire. But President Trump lashed out at the two sides Tuesday morning, for possible violations of that agreement. This caps a whirlwind of events including the US bombing of three nuclear sites in Iran and Iran's response, launching more than a dozen missiles at a US airbase in Qatar. Iranians living in LA have mixed feelings about the conflict. Reporter: Benjamin Gottlieb Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Since the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024, 1.9 million Syrian refugees have headed home to Syria. After 14 years of civil war, much of the country is in ruins, while over 90 per cent of the population lives below the poverty line.Yet, Syrian refugees are not losing hope: UN refugee agency, UNHCR, has found that more than 80 per cent of the diaspora hope to return one day, a major shift compared to surveys conducted before the fall of the old regime.  There are more than six million Syrian refugees, and over seven million are internally displaced. UNHCR is committed to helping all those who want to return home.UN News' Emma Trager-Lewis spoke to agency spokesperson in Syria Céline Schmitt, who's just returned from a field visit to Dara'a, birthplace of the Syrian revolution in 2011.

Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) & Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) break down the upcoming 2025 Oklahoma State Cowboys roster and key in on what is potentially a critical year for Mike Gundy and the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Could this be a make or break year for Mike Gundy and the future of the Oklahoma State Cowboys program? Are the Oklahoma State Cowboys perhaps the biggest mystery team in America with over 40 transfers coming in?Who gets the nod at the quarterback spot between Hauss Hejny and Zane Flores? How will the new look offense perform on new OC Doug Meacham? How many red flags is it that the offense has zero returning starters and does that even matter in this era of college football? Is Shamar Rigby a name to lookout for at the wideout spot? Could Rodney Fields or Trent Howland be the next great Oklahoma State Cowboys running back? What would a good season be for Mike Gundy in 2025 with so many unknowns?Can Oklahoma State fix one of the worst defenses in all of college football in 2025 with veteran DC Todd Grantham coming in from the New Orleans Saints? Is Iman Oates a name to lookout for on the defensive line? Did Oklahoma State win or lose the transfer portal in 2025? Is Bryan McCoy a name that Cowboy fans will know by the end of the year at the linebacker spot? Will the Oklahoma State defense be much more aggressive in 2025? What do we make of the Oklahoma State 2025 Big 12 schedule with games against Cincinnati, Houston, UCF and Arizona?

U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta has already determined that Google holds an illegal monopoly in internet search and with its ad network.

At this point, you've probably read 1,001 post-mortem analyses of the India-Pakistan conflict, desperately searching for some new nugget or data point that helps you understand this brief, but intense clash between these two South Asian rivals.In this sea of hot takes, one essay stands out both for its analytical clarity and its wisdom. That piece was written by the scholar Joshua T. White and it's simply titled, “Lessons for the next India-Pakistan war.”It was published by the Brookings Institution, where Josh is a non-resident fellow with the Foreign Policy program. Josh is also professor of the practice of international affairs at The Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) in Washington, D.C.Josh has served at the White House as senior advisor and director for South Asian affairs at the National Security Council. And he's also worked at the Pentagon, where he helped get the U.S.-India Defense Technology and Trade Initiative off the ground.To talk more about his piece and the recent conflict, Josh rejoins Milan on the podcast this week. He and Milan discuss how the global debate on “attribution” has tilted decisively in India's favor, troubling new precedents about military target selection, the depth of Pakistani information operations, and the widespread use of drones and unmanned aerial vehicles in the recent conflict. Plus, the two preview Josh's forthcoming book, Vigilante Islamists: Religious Parties and Anti-State Violence in Pakistan.Episode notes: 1. Joshua T.
