A new episode is dropping this evening 3/4 with an update. How did the United States and Iran go from nuclear diplomacy to open war? In this episode of We Saw the Devil, Robin walks through the timeline that led to the 2026 US–Iran conflict. From the 2015 Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) to Operation Epic Fury, she breaks down the decisions, escalations, and failed diplomacy that pushed two countries toward direct conflict.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this powerful episode, Tom sits down with former CIA covert operative Andrew Bustamante to pull back the curtain on the turbulent state of global affairs. With the Iranian war in full swing and military strategies playing out in real time, Andrew gives listeners an insider's perspective on what's really happening behind government narratives, intelligence reports, and international influence campaigns. Together, Tom Bilyeu and Andrew Bustamante dissect the headlines—from conflicting stories about Iran's nuclear ambitions to the real motivations behind recent US military actions in Iran and Venezuela. Andrew explains how threat assessments are compiled within intelligence agencies, reveals why classified and public narratives often diverge, and offers a candid take on the legacy politics at play in the current administration. But the conversation doesn't stop at geopolitics. The two dive into the evolving role of artificial intelligence in modern warfare and intelligence gathering, discuss the ethical and strategic dilemmas posed by autonomous weapons, and examine the shifting alliances that could define the future balance of power between the US, China, Russia, and the rest of the world. If you're looking to understand the forces shaping global conflict today—and what might be coming next—you won't want to miss this episode. Stay tuned as Tom and Andrew bring clarity to chaos and lay out the possible paths forward in this era of uncertainty. What's up, everybody? It's Tom Bilyeu here: If you want my help...

The United States is once again at war in the Middle East.The Trump administration, with support from Israel, made targeted air strikes against high-profile targets in Iran this weekend. Tehran responded by firing its own missiles at nearby Israeli and American military bases. This all comes after weeks of talks between Washington and Tehran over the latter's nuclear program and a major military buildup on the part of the U.S. in the Middle East. Several U.S. service members have been reported dead as a result of Iran's retaliation.President Donald Trump explained his rationale for the attacks in an eight-minute video posted on Truth Social Saturday morning, saying he hoped to destroy Iran's nuclear program and cripple its military.Now, leaders, analysts, and the world are wondering what yet another conflict in the region means for the futures of those who live there, the future of the global energy market, the midterm elections, and much more. We sit down with a panel of experts to unpack it all.Find more of our programs online.

A former Clinton and Biden foreign policy advisor saw it before it happened. Now the question is what investors do next. Hours after this episode was recorded, the United States and Israel launched a coordinated military campaign against Iran, killing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in what analysts are calling the most significant U.S.-Iran escalation in decades. Charles Myers, Founder and CEO of Signum Global Advisors and a former senior foreign policy advisor to Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, had just sat down with Steven Ehrlich to discuss the geopolitical landscape and what it means for investors. What he said about Iran during that conversation is now raising serious questions about what comes next, and the investment implications are far from settled. In this episode, Myers also addresses whether the "sell America" trade is overdone, where oil is heading, the future of AI funding, and whether Bitcoin can actually function as a safe haven when the world is on fire.

In 1953 the CIA secretly organized a coup to overthrow the democratically elected leader of Iran. This was the CIA's first regime change operation — code-named 'Operation Ajax' — becoming the playbook for later CIA operations. Its consequences are still reverberating around the world.In this episode we take a deep dive into how Operation Ajax was planned and executed, it's motivations, the political context locally and globally, what happened in Iran after 1953, its impact on US-Iran relations up to today, and more. We've added many archival audio clips, including first-hand accounts on both sides, sound effects, music, and more. This is the first episode in our new series on The Socialist Program. In each episode we will unpack a different CIA/Pentagon operation, each which was given its own code-name as Operation Ajax was.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the political aftershocks of President Trump's record-setting State of the Union address, from new retirement proposals and Big Tech power requirements to the growing frustration over the Senate filibuster and the fate of the SAVE America Act.

The second half pivots global, with updates on the capture of Venezuela's Maduro, delicate negotiations with Cuba, expanding U.S. seizures of illicit oil tankers, and a looming confrontation with Iran as Tehran eyes hypersonic missiles from China.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Negotiators resumed US-Iran nuclear talks in Geneva on Thursday, hours after senior American officials made the case that Iran poses a major threat to the United States and is actively working toward a nuclear bomb. Horovitz updates us on US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance's statements and describes the intense US military buildup in the Mideast. He then assesses the Israeli public's willingness to join in on any eventual strike against Iran and how Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could leverage the crisis in this election year. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a two-day visit to Israel on Wednesday and Thursday, where he pledged to work in lockstep with the Jewish state to confront Islamist terrorism. In what Horovitz describes as a regrettably rare sentiment from world leaders, the Indian premier told the Knesset that his nation stands “firmly” with Israel. We learn what else happened behind the scenes. In an effort to circumvent a Supreme Court order to expand egalitarian prayer access at the Western Wall, lawmakers voted 56-47 Wednesday afternoon in favor of the preliminary reading of a bill giving the Chief Rabbinate full control over prayer at all parts of the holy site -- not just the Orthodox prayer plaza. It has drawn harsh condemnation from progressive Jewish groups, which condemned the controversial legislation as “patronizing and antisemitic.” Horovitz weighs in.

They reflect on Purim anxiety, old antisemitic tropes resurfacing, and Narendra Modi's unusually warm visit to Israel, set against Knesset infighting. They also dive deep into the evolving India–Israel relationship with former ambassador Alon Ushpiz: affection, technology, security interests, and how much (or little) Islam really drives the alignment. Plus: the backlash to Hugh Laurie's mourning of Tehran producer Dana Eden, a Chutzpah award for Tucker Carlson and Mike Huckabee, and a Mensch salute to Israel's women's hockey team.
