Last weekend was a busy one for the US. On the sporting side alone, you had the kick-off of the 2026 Fifa World Cup, the decades-ending wait for a New York Knicks championship victory, and the small matter of MMA fighters bruising up the White House lawn. On the geopolitical front, there was the much-welcomed agreement of a peace deal between the US and Iran, three-and-a-half months after that conflict began. At the centre of it all, in one way or another, stood president Donald J Trump. Trump had his own personal milestone to celebrate on Sunday as he turned 80 years old. Performing any high-pressure job at the age of 80 is challenging enough, but Trump is the leader of the free world. Recent on-camera sightings might suggest that Trump is visibly withering, despite fiery pushback from his spokespeople and glowing medical reports from his medical team. We're only midway through Trump 2.0, but is he still up to the job? And for those looking to travel to the US for short- or long-term stays, are Irish visitors still as welcome as Trump's travel tsar so enthusiastically insists we are?

Iran says there's no point continuing talks with the US - jeopardising Donald Trump's peace proposal. The US President earlier claimed a memorandum of understanding would be signed today. But deadly Israeli strikes on Beirut have plunged his plans into uncertainty - with Iran now vowing retaliation. Foreign policy analyst Jeffrey Pryce told Mike Hosking that he wouldn't hold his breath about a deal being signed today. But he says ending the conflict remains in the best interests of both sides - including re-opening the Strait of Hormuz. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Darrell Castle talks about a bill currently working its way through the U.S. Congress which would, if passed, literally integrate the U.S. and Israeli militaries and would put funding for the Israeli military on auto pilot. Will it pass and be signed by the President? Many people seem to think it will so he takes a look at it today. THE ISRAELIZATION OF THE U.S. MILITARY Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 12th of June in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about a bill currently working its way through the United States Congress which would, if passed, literally integrate the U.S. and Israeli militaries and would put funding for the Israeli military on auto pilot. Will it pass and be signed by the President. Many people seem to think it will so we take a look at it today. Yes, unfortunately it seems that certain members of the House of Representatives and the Senate of the United States are now ready to complete the process of uniting the two countries militaries. The first bill introduced in the House would have literally combined the two. Many of the Israel first politicians are already dual citizens so why not complete the process and stop all the hypocrisy. Just go ahead and make the U.S. military the official enforcement arm of Israeli foreign policy. The most egregious provision of the original bill is that the benefits due to American veterans like me, such as medical and educational benefits would have also been available to all Israeli veterans. That would have been a supreme insult to every American veteran who has ever served. The last time I checked there were about 15 million living American veterans so why not just insult them all while they are still alive. Just tell them all that “your service to this nation meant nothing” but certainly no more to America than an Israeli veteran meant to America. Fortunately, that portion of the bill was pulled before it advanced but there are rumors that it is still out there in Congress or at least in some of their minds and it will be added back in. The bill being considered is the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would fund the U.S. military for another year. According to members of the House whose opinions I have read, there is near certainty that Section 224 of that bill will pass through the House and become law with the President's signature. Congressman Ro Khanna, Democrat, and Thomas Massie, Republican tried to pass an amendment to delete Section 224 but the amendment failed. That section will set up a “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative” that integrates US-Israeli military research and development co-production of weapons systems, licensing agreements, AI, directed energy. Data integration, and missile defense. It creates the framework for bilateral research and development, co-production of weapons, joint ventures, licensing agreements, and virtually every manner of U.S.-Israeli military cooperation. The Director of this “Initiative” who will be responsible for coordination of the work will reportedly be an Israeli. The funding will come 100% from the U.S, treasury through part of the $1.5 trillion defense budget requested by President Trump. The purpose as stated is to fully connect the functionality of the U.S. military with that of the Israeli military in what is being described as an equal partnership that will include the government of Israel and the Israeli Defense Forces as full partners. There will be intelligence sharing and in fact the bill includes a requirement that intelligence must be shared. Israeli forces will be included in the planning process of how U.S. weapons are developed and procured. This serves to explain at least in part why Netanyahu has been indicating recently that Israel might be willing to forego some of the mandatory $3.8 billion the U.S. gives it every year. He obviously knows there is an even bigger slice of American Pie coming his way via Section 224. The intelligence sharing portion of the bill was introduced by Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas which he calls “US-Israel Intelligence Sharing Enhancement.” Interestingly, at the same time the New York Times recently carried an article entitled “Pentagon Sees Growing Espionage Threat from Israel.” The article is sourced to the Defense Intelligence Agency which says that the espionage threat from Israel is at the highest possible level and even says that Israel eavesdropped on negotiations between the United States and Iran conducted in Pakistan. The senators pushing this bill often refer to Israel as our best friend and most trusted ally but at the same time the DIA has that country listed as the highest possible espionage threat. Just to keep following this espionage threat let me tell you or remind you of a couple of things this best friend has done during its roughly 78 years as a political nation. In 1984 when a man named Yitzhak Shamir was prime minister and Ronald Reagan was the US president; Israel dispatched an American of dual citizenship named Jonathan Pollard to do some spying against the US. Pollard worked in the US defense establishment and had access to some of the most highly classified military secrets. He stole and delivered the entire 10 volume DIA manual of in person or human intelligence operatives all over the world. The manual contained the names and locations of US intelligence operatives working in the Soviet Union and Communist China both countries in a desperate cold war with the US. Pollard delivered the manual along with many other vital intelligence documents to his handlers in Israel. Can you guess what our best friend and most trusted ally did with the manual and other information. Yes, that's right, they gave it to the Soviet Union and Communist China in exchange for “favors”. Thousands of US personnel along with foreign operatives working with US Intelligence were arrested and many were killed so I guess as the saying goes with friends like that who needs enemies. Pollard did his work in 1984 and in 1987 he was sentenced to life in prison and he served exactly 30 years plus five years of probation. He was then allowed to move to Israel where he has hero status. The American Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, had him over to the US Embassy for a little get together recently. That Pollard incident illustrates the one-sided relationship the US has with Israel quite clearly but as bad as it was it was not the worst. No, the worst happened in 1967 when a man named Levi Eshkol was Prime Minister of Israel and Lyndon Johnson was US President. In fact, last Monday the 8th of June was the 59th anniversary of the Israeli attack on an American ship named USS Liberty. The Liberty was an intelligence gathering ship operating in International Waters in the Eastern Mediterranean when it was attacked by air forces of Israel. This attack was not an accident or improper identification or anything except a deliberate act of murder. The Liberty, an unarmed vessel, was relentless bombed and strafed by Israeli jets while clearly flying the American flag. The attack severed the radio mast and cut off the crew's ability to send a distress call but one crewman managed to climb on deck despite strafing fire, raise an antenna and get off a distress call. Out in the Med a US carrier heard the message and immediately launched jets for a rescue effort. I can tell you from a lot of personal experience that there is nothing that motivates US soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines like coming to the rescue of brothers in trouble. Unfortunately, the US Commander in Chief, Lyndon Johnson personally ordered the Carrier captain to withdraw his jets. They left Liberty to die on its own but the little ship and its crew refused to die. 34 men were killed and 171 wounded but the ship would not sink and made it back to port. The pilots of our most trusted friend and ally even machine-gunned wounded sailors in the water something honorable men do not do even when their nations are at war. No real investigation by government investigators with subpoena power has ever been conducted to my knowledge. Oh, there was a cursory inquiry as there always is but according to reporter Donald Jeffries who did a yeoman's job of private investigation and who has written extensively about the matter President Johnson ordered the board of inquiry to rule it an accident. Why did the Israelis attack the USS Liberty. Without going into a lot of what amounts to guesswork, it was probably because Israel was fighting what came to be known as the six-day-war against a coalition of enemy nations one of which was Egypt. The Liberty was to be sunk and the incident blamed on the Egyptians which would have given the US an excuse to enter the war against Egypt as retaliation. In both the Liberty attack and the Pollard incident not a single thing regarding US policy toward Israel changed. Not one dollar was cut from the very generous support. Compare this to the reaction upon news this week that an Apache Attack Helicopter had been shot down in the Persian Gulf near Hormuz. The President said he would retaliate with a massive bombing attack and would “take over” Iran's petroleum industry. I don't believe the story which makes no sense but not much in this war makes sense. An Apache is an attack helicopter with a mission of finding and destroying enemy armor but it can be used for armed reconnaissance as well. Perhaps that was its mission over the Gulf. It landed in the water with no injuries to crew so no I don't believe it and it was probably done by Israel if it was done at all. I don't think it was more than an excuse to resume the war. Finally, folks, the US has reportedly given Israel more than $300 billion since its founding in 1948 but it is on the brink of an even more egregious relationship whereby it combines its military with that of Israel. Something causes Washington politicians to shower our money that we work for on Israel and to support it while it robs the US at home and commits mass murder abroad. Why is the question. If all our politicians are blackmailed prostitutes shouldn't we have some knowledge of our worth, How much do they get from the pimps who own them. At least that's the way I seen it. Until next time folks, This is Darrell Castle, Thanks for listening.
On Thursday, US President Donald Trump threatened to take “total control" of Iran's oil and gas markets, and to seize Kharg Island. Just hours later though, he claimed an agreement to end the war with Iran was on the horizon and cancelled a third consecutive night of strikes.Mixed messaging from the US President on this conflict is nothing new - but the island at the centre of this latest dispute has a huge role to play. It's a small, rocky outcrop off of Iran's coast - but it's importance for the country's oil infrastructure- and now for President Trump - is huge. So why is Kharg Island so important? And why does President Trump want it?Ghoncheh Habibiazad, from the BBC's Persian language service, joins us to unpack it all - and to explain what the consequences could be if President Trump decides to take the island.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: William Lee Adams Producers: Chelsea Coates and Emily Horler Editor: Verity Wilde
Donald Trump is turning 80 and is on track to be the oldest US president to hold the office.He'll overtake his predecessor Joe Biden in August 2028, five months before he finishes his second term.In recent years the term gerontocracy has sometimes been used to describe United States.It refers to political systems where those in power are typically older than the rest of the population.So is this the case?
There's scepticism about whether Donald Trump's talk of a breakthrough with Iran is genuine. The US President's calling off scheduled strikes hours after threatening to cause even more severe damage. He says the final points of a peace deal have been agreed by both sides. Iranian officials are yet to confirm and are instead pointing out previous contradictions in Trump's statements. Former US General Randy Manner told Heather du Plessis-Allan he just doesn't believe Trump. He says Trump's done this almost three dozen times over the past few months, so the President doesn't have much credibility left. Manner says Trump's well aware that Iran retains strategic power via the Strait of Hormuz – they can hold the entire world hostage at any time, due to the nuclear threat.

Uncertainty about whether Donald Trump's claims of progress in Iran talks have any credibility. The US President has called off today's planned strikes, despite earlier vowing to drop even bigger bombs. He now claims both sides have agreed to the final points of a deal – something Iran's not confirming. US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Heather du Plessis-Allan Trump is calling it a “transaction” as opposed to a deal, and no details, nor the time or place of signing, have been announced.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 58-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 45,620 on turnover of $18-billion N-T. Premier talks lifetime license ban for fatal drug-impaired driving Premier Cho Jung-tai says motorists who cause death or serious injury while driving under the influence of drugs will face a lifetime license ban under planned amendments to the law. According to the Cabinet, the Ministry of Justice has been instructed to draft amendments imposing harsher (更嚴厲的) criminal penalties for drug-impaired driving as soon as possible. The premier says Cabinet would discuss establishing a legal basis for rapid saliva testing of suspected drug-impaired drivers and those tests could also be used alongside existing urine tests in schools to strengthen anti-drug efforts. The premier also says authorities will step up border inspections targeting vapes and that he's instructed the justice ministry to convene a narcotics review committee to consider reclassifying etomidate from a Category 2 to a Category 1 narcotic. The proposed changes come after the Ministry of Transport earlier this week unveiled a package of stricter administrative penalties that also covered passengers riding with drug-impaired drivers and expanded license revocations. Taipei Zoo to receive two red pandas on Saturday: Officials Taipei Zoo is scheduled to receive two red pandas from Shanghai Zoo tomorrow.

Somalia Opposition Clashes in Mogadishu Somalia's opposition supporters and security forces have clashed in Mogadishu for a second day ahead of a planned anti-government demonstration. The United Nations and the United States called for restraint (克制) as the government and opposition blame each other for the violence. Residents reported heavy gunfire and explosions in several neighborhoods. The clashes highlight growing political tensions over elections and the constitution. Gunfire subsides Thursday afternoon after mediation efforts. Opposition figures say the rally protests constitutional violations and efforts by President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud to extend his tenure. The government rejects those allegations. EU Expands Ocean Monitoring Network The European Union is expanding its ocean monitoring network with underwater drones and satellites as climate change intensifies heat waves and storms. EU Commision President Ursula von der Leyen $107-million US dollars will fund this effort. Oceans are vital ecosystems covering about 70% of planet Earth, hosting complex webs of life that generate oxygen and absorb (吸收) greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide. The EU aims to lead global ocean research and protection. Funds will support oceanic technology incubators and the United Nations' Global Ocean Observing System.

It remains unclear whether the US President had requested a full risk assessment before deciding to launch airstrikes against Iran, or whether the option of Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz was highlighted then. However, the reality of the closed Strait, the global economic impact and the resulting rapidly changing international order highlight a core reality: our lives are underpinned by risk.From individual issues of choice such as investments or acquisitions to state-level realities such as pandemics, wars or climate change, understanding and assessing risk is integral to both events - and decision making. Ultimately, all events are an outcome of a decision based (or, equally, not) on an assessment of risk.Assessing risk is a vast and growing realm, made ever more complex and wide by the introduction of technology and especially AI. In our rapidly changing reality, understanding the possibilities and consequences of a decision is no longer a simple act of sequencing but also of modelling and so much more. To best understand these complex and rapidly evolving concepts, Tinatin Japaridze, Director of Geopolitics at Anadyr Horizon joins us in a fabulous and philosophical discussion.This episode was recorded on 3 June 2026.Chapters:Role of AI in decision makingUnderstanding geopolitical risk and cascading effectsChanges and shifts in world order over the 20 past yearsFine lines and interdependencies between technologies and humansMentionsAnadyr Horizon website LinkedInLarge language models (LLM) - European data protection supervisor1914: The unspoken assumptions of James Joll - War on the Rocks articleFollowTinatin Japaridze LinkedIn, X/TwitterIlana Bet-ElInstagram @women_leaders_podcastListen to this episode on our YouTube channelOur partner European Leadership Network Twitter LinkedIn Facebook websiteCreditsProduction: Florence FerrandoMusic: Let Good Times Roll, RA from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/ra/let-good-times-rollLicense code: ZXIIIJUU2ISPZIJTContribute to the conversation with a comment & a 5-⭐️Reach us on our Instagram and follow for updates @women_leaders_podcastWatch now our episode on Youtube Hosted on Acast.

What does it actually take to make a living as a professional swimmer? Olympic Silver Medalist and NCAA Champion Anna Peplowski joins Social Kick to pull back the curtain on pro swimming finances, her transition out of NCAA competition, and her road to the LA 2028 Olympics. Anna breaks down the exact numbers behind her professional career, including the $3,750 monthly stipend from USA Swimming, the $15,000 athlete donor program, and how she navigates brand deals with companies like Jersey Mike's, Science in Sport, and DripDrop. She also shares how living on $650/month rent in Indiana helps her budget for the future! Beyond the business of the sport, Anna discusses the insane depth of the Women's 200 Freestyle, the mindset shift that keeps her motivated during grueling threshold sets, her borderline-obsessive coffee hobby, and the absolute hardest set she's ever done at IU (40x75s!). Plus, stick around for the Rapid Fire segment where Anna flexes an unbelievable hidden talent: singing every single US President in under 15 seconds. If you want an honest, transparent look at the life of an elite swimmer, you don't want to miss this one.

In this highly anticipated episode of Kliq This, wrestling icon Kevin Nash and co-host Sean Oliver dive deep into a chaotic week across the sports and entertainment landscapes. The duo breaks down the latest drama from the hardwood, dissecting recent controversial officiating decisions surrounding NBA phenom Victor Wembanyama and debating whether league franchises ever have to truly answer for egregious on-court moments. Beyond basketball, Nash shares personal, nostalgic stories about his family's athletic background, reflecting on a time when powerhouse moves ran deep in the Nash bloodline long before modern professional leagues even existed. Behind the Curtain & Financial Realities The conversation shifts from the courts to the locker rooms as Nash offers a rare, unfiltered look into the early days of the wrestling business. He responds directly to modern critiques and historic documentaries, addressing his past interactions with iconic figures like Bruce Prichard and Shawn Michaels. Striking a balance between backstage politics and institutional change, the hosts explore how the legendary "Click" functioned as an accidental union that fundamentally shifted how talent contracts, global touring payouts, and locker room policies were structured. They also navigate the volatile world of modern finance, trading sharp critiques on the meteoric rise and fall of the cryptocurrency and NFT markets. Media Clicks & Cultural Anomalies Closing out the episode, the hosts pull no punches when discussing the current state of media consumption, exposing the calculated shift toward negative hit pieces designed purely to harvest internet traffic. They dissect the evolution of episodic television versus the breakneck pacing of global wrestling products, giving fans plenty to think about regarding how stories are told today. From bizarre "Florida Man" headlines involving intoxicated drone operators to geopolitical shifts in the Middle East and the encroaching reality of autonomous taxi cabs, this discussion promises a wild, thought-provoking ride through the cultural landscape.

THE OTHER SIDE - FULL Episode 516 - For weekend commencing Friday 22 May 2026. Special Interview Guests - Mens' Advocates BETTINA ARNDT and DAVID MAYWALDWe think Anthony Albanese and Jim Chalmers have written the death warrant of their political careers given the public reaction to the budget and major back-tracking will be needed if they want to protect their legacy and reputations. In this week's show, Damian gives his thoughts on that, and also looks at the "Giggle vs Tickle" case and other anti-free-speech cases taxpayers money is currently being spent on around the country.PLUS Is Donald Trump a strategic winner when it comes to international affairs? Australia's longest-serving Minister for Foreign Affairs thinks he might be. So maybe it's time Aussie elites stopped laughing at the US President and endlessly underestimating him.

President Donald Trump's recent announcement that the US would pull five thousand troops from Germany took allies by surprise. The latest comments, which came in the wake of European criticism of the Iran war, were followed by a threat to impose a 25 percent tariff on automobiles and auto parts from Europe, as the US President claimed on social media that Europe was not living up to its end of a trade agreement struck last summer. The two moves have experts and analysts wondering if this will further weaken the credibility of US deterrence in Europe, while at the same time bracing for the prospect of a renewed transatlantic trade war. Keeping one eye on the simmering tensions between the White House and the EU, we're also turning our attention this week to a report that has gone viral recently. For those following international politics on platforms like X - formerly Twitter - they're sure to have come across a page called “Clash Report”, which was also quick to post about the latest developments in the transatlantic relationship. What most people don't know, however, is that Clash Report is the English-language arm of a Turkish media operation with close ties to the Erdogan family. These connections were unmasked this past weekend. Thanos Davelis dig into all of these developments with Max Bergmann, Maria Demertzis, and Eitan Fischberger as we break down what message the withdrawal of US troops from Europe sends, whether we should prepare for another US-EU trade war, and look at who is behind Clash Report and why it matters. Moving to our I am HALC segment, we're putting the spotlight on one of HALC's earliest members, Stathis Theodoropoulos. Stathis is a successful entrepreneur and owner of Firefly Lighting, but beyond this entrepreneurial side, Stathis is also a dedicated advocate for his local community. Aside from his commitment to Hellenic causes, he serves as a councilman in Kearny, New Jersey, where he's at the frontlines of making sure local government works for the communities it's designed to serve. A little more info on our guests: Max Bergmann is 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. Maria Demertzis, a Professor of Economic Policy at the European University Institute. Eitan Fischberger is a journalist and Open Source Intelligence Investigator.

In a dystopian 1997, a soldier-turned-bankrobber is taked rescuing the US President after he crashes into Manhattan, which has been turned into a giant maximum security prison. That's the official description for this gritty, sci-fi action thriller but a couple of key players involved made it more special than that. The solider is Snake Plissken played by Kurt Russell (The Thing, Tombstone, The Hateful Eight) in one of his more iconic performances. The director is genre master John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing, They Live) who inadverdently created a sub-genre with the success of this film forty-five years ago. And the rest of this film's stellar supporting cast includes Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, Donald Pleasance, Isaac Hayes, Harry Dean Stanton, and Adrienne Barbeau.

The US-Iran ceasefire deal is set to end on Wednesday but Donald Trump says he does not want to extend the deadline. The US President believes the US is in a very strong negotiating position. Iran has not yet confirmed if it will attend peace talks in Islamabad. The US vice-president J D Vance, who will lead the American team, is reportedly yet to leave Washington. Also: the British prime minister Keir Starmer comes under intense pressure over his role in the appointment of Peter Mandelson as US ambassador, fuelling doubts about whether he can survive as prime minister; Japan says it will scrap the weapons export rules that it's had in place since the end of the Second World War so it can sell lethal arms to its allies; and a group of women in Spain target the lingering symptoms of breast cancer treatment with the help of archery.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.
