Høyrepopulisme har lenge hatt momentum i Vesten. 2026 har derimot vist seg å by på noen tilbakeslag: Viktor Orbán tapte valget etter 16 år ved makten. Trump er upopulær, og Republikanerne ligger an til å tape i høstens mellomvalg. Har vi nå sett toppen av høyrepopulismen? Alexander Zlatanos Ibsen, nyhetsredaktør i Minerva, gjester Liberal Halvtime for å diskutere spørsmålet, i samtale med Skjalg Stokke Hougen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Zeitgeist #33 s Tomášem Brolíkem o prvních 100 dnech vlády strany Tisza, nové hlavě státu a mezích moci ústavní většiny v Maďarsku. Moderuje Štěpán Sedláček.Maďarsku už přes tři měsíce vládné strana Tisza v čele s Peterem Magyarem, která má v maďarském parlamentu ústavní většinu. Premiér poměrně rychle mění pořádky, které v zemi 16 let budoval Viktor Orbán se svou stranou Fidesz. Mimo jiné zahájil přestavbu veřejnoprávních médií v nezávislé instituce a pomocí ústavních dodatků omezil funkční období politiků. U jednotlivých předsedů vlád na maximálně osm let ve funkci, což vylučuje návrát Orbána v roli premiéra. U poslanců pak jde o maximálně dvanáct let. Parlament také předčasně ukončil mandát prezidenta Tamáse Sulyoka a schválil vznik nového úřadu, který má prošetřit zneužívání veřejných prostředků a korupci. Na post hlavy státu Tisza posléze nominovala někdejšího předsedu nejvyššího soudu Andráse Baku.Viktor Orbán a jeho příznivci mnohé z těchto kroků vnímají jako útlak a tyranii. Sledujeme bourání a znovuzakládání maďarského státu, budování spravedlivější demokracie nebo jde především o střídání politických garnitur a boj o moc? Jaké první přešlapy udělal nový premiér? Rychlé politické změny v Maďarsku rozebírá v novém díle Zeitgeistu zástupce šéfredaktora týdeníku Respekt Tomáš Brolík se Štěpánem Sedláčkem.
Live Aug 8, 2026(Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Episode 9)In the Mind of JD Vance | Yaron & Nikos DialoguesIs JD Vance the future of American conservatism — or is he Elizabeth Warren with a rosary?JD Vance calls himself a defender of capitalism. He talks about "robber barons," praises union power, campaigns for Viktor Orbán's crony state in Hungary, and once said UFOs might be demons. Yaron Brook and Nikos Sotirakopoulos spend this episode taking Vance's own words apart — the Rogan interview, the "Christian political economy," the Iran deal he ran point on — to answer one question: what does JD Vance actually believe, and is it conservatism at all, or socialism wearing a cross? Tune in as Yaron and Nikos go inside the ideas driving the man most likely to be the next face of the Republican Party, and they don't pull punches.
Useassa EU-maassa medianvapaus on heikentynyt viime vuosien aikana. Näin siitä huolimatta, että EU:ssa astui kaksi vuotta sitten voimaan medianvapaussäädös. Toimittajat ilman rajoja -järjestön selvityksen mukaan EU-maista vain Suomi, Ruotsi ja Tanska ovat toteuttaneet säädöksen täysimääräisesti. Järjestön EU-edustaja sanoo ohjelmassa, että EU-komission tulisi ryhtyä toimiin, jotta EU-maat saataisiin noudattamaan medianvapaussäädöstä. Huonoin medianvapaustilanne on Kreikassa. Se sijoittuu kansainvälisessä medianvapaustilastossa EU-maista heikoimmalle sijalle. Ohjelmassa kuullaan raportti Kreikasta ja selviää, miksi medianvapaus Kreikassa mataa. Unkarissa mediakenttä on myllerryksessä huhtikuisten vaalien jälkeen. Victor Orbánin vaalitappion myötä myös mediaan luotu Orbánin propagandakoneisto on murenemassa. Unkarilaisprofessori avaa ohjelmassa, mitä Unkarissa nyt tehdään, jotta maahan saataisiin aidosti vapaa, poliittisesta johdosta riippumaton media. Unkarin televisio- ja radiouutiset on keskeytetty elokuun puoliväliin asti toimitusten uudistamisen ajaksi.

Neste novo episódio da série Termos Ambíguos, o verbete abordado é o “Globalismo”, que ganhou destaque durante o primeiro governo Donald Trump, ao ser contraposto ao patriotismo e à liberdade em seu discurso político. Desde então, passou a integrar o vocabulário de movimentos antiglobalistas, influenciando também o governo Bolsonaro. No entanto, o conceito é complexo e controverso, envolvendo diferentes interpretações, atores políticos e relações com questões contemporâneas, especialmente no contexto brasileiro. Para apresentar um debate sobre o termo, entrevistamos a Sonia Corrêa, o Fernando Brancoli e o Douglas Sanque, que foi também o autor do verbete no Termos ambíguos do debate político atual: pequeno dicionário que você não sabia que existia, disponível para download gratuito no site do Observatório de Sexualidade e Política. _________________________ Roteiro Ernesto Araújo: “Eu acho que o mais grave do globalismo é na mente, no pensamento. Eu acho que o globalismo é perigoso porque é sobretudo um sistema de pensamento, de anti pensamento. […] Tatiane Amaral: Quem está falando aqui é Ernesto Araújo, ex-ministro de relações internacionais do governo Bolsonaro Sonora Ernesto Araújo: […] Eu vejo o globalismo muito como o processo pelo qual a ideologia marxista, a partir do começo dos anos 90 e sobretudo a partir dos anos 2000, ela penetra na globalização econômica e faz dela o veículo da sua propagação. Então, justamente através da globalização começa a entrar com sua agenda em temas como ideologia de gênero, em temas como o ambientalismo distorcido, e outros. E começa sobretudo a controlar o discurso, a dizer o que você pode dizer e o que você não pode dizer, e cada vez o que você pode dizer é menos, ocupa um menor espaço. Então, eu vejo mais o globalismo assim, aquela ideia de que o marxismo descobriu que ele não precisa controlar os meios de produção econômica, quando ele pode controlar o meio de produção de ideias, que é o que já vinha acontecendo. E é através desse controle de ideias começa a capturar instituições e aí começa a partir dessas instituições tentar agir para diminuir as identidades nacionais, e as identidades pessoais também. A fala pode até soar exagerada, parecer coisa de filme ou de teoria da conspiração… mas ela está se tornando cada vez mais presente em discursos políticos da ultradireita — seja no Brasil ou no mundo. E ela gira em torno de uma palavra: globalismo. Mas afinal, você sabe o que, de fato, é globalismo? Daniel Faria: Eu sou o Daniel Faria Tatiane: E eu sou a Tatiane Amaral. E este é o sétimo episódio da Série Termos Ambíguos, uma parceria entre o Observatório de Sexualidade e Política e o podcast Oxigênio. Daniel: Juntos, vamos conduzir esta viagem pelo termo que tem estado cada vez mais presente nos discursos políticos globais e nacionais. Falei em viagem porque o termo se vincula a globo, a planeta, além de ser usado em muitos países. Mas também não deixa de ser uma viagem no sentido figurado mesmo, pois o termo como é usado pela extrema direita evoca um certo devaneio, ou até mesmo delírio. Tatiane: O termo “Globalismo” é mais uma categoria acusatória fabricada pela extrema direita, assim como muitos outros espantalhos, alguns que a gente até já tratou aqui no Termos Ambíguos, como Ideologia de gênero, marxismo cultural,racismo reverso… Daniel: A extrema direita usa esses e vários outros termos com objetivos específicos: Por um lado, eles querem provocar o medo e, sobretudo, a suspeita. De outro, criar confusão mesmo. No caso de Globalismo as confusões são muitas e muito sobrepostas, mas vamos tentar esclarecer algumas delas neste episódio. Tatiane: Pra começar, precisamos esclarecer que Globalismo não é a mesma coisa que Globalização. Eu sei que é confuso, mas vem comigo: Globalização é a denominação da transnacionalização intensificada de relações econômicas, culturais e sociais, que se registrou a partir do fim da Guerra Fria. Já o Globalismo pode ser descrito como uma desfiguração de globalização, que atribui a essas dinâmicas outros sentidos, em geral associados à dominação, a atores obscuros e à conspiração. Daniel: No dicionário de termos ambíguos, que você pode encontrar aqui na descrição desse episódio o verbete escrito pelo Douglas Sanque, que vai aparecer na nossa conversa daqui a pouco, traça um histórico desse processo desde 1991, quando a União Soviética chegou ao fim e seus ex-membros foram integrados à nova ordem neoliberal global. É aí que se consolida a globalização, que foi uma integração via mercados ao redor do… Globo. Tatiane: Esse movimento promoveu uma ampla abertura de mercados que intensificou a concorrência internacional. Nesse processo foram estimulados os acordos de livre comércio e a formação de blocos econômicos. Em tese, isso deveria favorecer todas as nações, mas vamo lá, né? A gente sabe que não foi bem assim. Claro que os países mais desenvolvidos e industrializados se deram melhor. Daniel: Foi aí, no meio desse processo, que a União Europeia foi criada, a partir do chamado Mercado Comum Europeu. Foi esse mercado que ampliou a integração que era só, econômica para uma integração política e institucional. Após o fim da Guerra Fria, nos anos 90, a União Europeia se expandiu, incorporando países do Leste Europeu, que antes integravam a antiga União Soviética. Tatiane: Depois disso, foram surgindo blocos econômicos pelo mundo todo, como o Mercosul, por exemplo, que é o Mercado Comum do Sul, formado por Brasil, Argentina, Uruguai e Paraguai. Tem também o Nafta, um Tratado entre México, Estados Unidos e Canadá, assinado em 1994 e atualizado em 2020 como Acordo Estados Unidos-México-Canadá. Além disso, as Economias asiáticas também se fortaleceram nesse contexto, com destaque para os Tigres Asiáticos, formado por Taiwan, Coreia do Sul, Hong Kong e Singapura. Sem falar da China, que também ampliou muito suas relações comerciais internacionais nesse período. Daniel: A Sonia Corrêa, coordenadora do Observatório de Sexualidade e Política e do projeto do Dicionário, já conversou com a gente em outros episódios do Termos Ambíguos, e dessa vez ela destaca um ponto importante desse processo da Globalização:a expansão do neoliberalismo. E ela lembra que o processo nunca foi tranquilo e nem poupado de críticas. Tatiane: A Sonia comenta que o Neoliberalismo estava em expansão desde o final dos anos setenta. Com o fim da guerra fria e o desaparecimento do bloco soviético, todo esse espaço econômico passou a analisar (e sentir) os efeitos negativos da expansão do pensamento neoliberal nas desigualdades econômicas dentro dos países, ENTRE países e, mais especialmente, entre o NORTE e o SUL globais. Daniel: Durante todo o processo, muitos acordos foram sugeridos, mas nem sempre as tentativas deram certo. Um bom exemplo foi a tentativa de implantação da Área de Livre Comércio das Américas, a ALCA, que integraria os mercados de 34 países das Américas, exceto Cuba, eliminando as tarifas e os impostos de importação. A proposta era de George Bush, então presidente dos Estados Unidos, mas não foi pra frente, justamente por causa da grande disparidade de recursos e poder entre os países. Tatiane: Vale a pena a gente dizer que quando os países começaram a entrar nessa chamada “economia global”, muita coisa mudou internamente também. Por exemplo, várias indústrias saíram da Europa e dos Estados Unidos e foram pra lugares como a China ou o México, onde produzir é mais barato, principalmente por causa da mão de obra. Ao mesmo tempo, a globalização também trouxe a privatização de serviços públicos, como saúde e educação, reformas nas leis trabalhistas desfavoráveis a trabalhadoras e trabalhadores, assim como dos sistemas de aposentadoria. Também ativou novas formas ainda mais agressivas de extrativismo. Tudo isso contribuiu para o aumento das desigualdades. E foi nesse clima que a categoria acusatória “globalismo” prosperou e se aproveitou da atmosfera de contestação à globalização para impulsionar seu projeto político que não tem nenhum compromisso com a superação da desigualdade. Daniel: Autores e autoras, como a Wendy Brown, analisaram como a expansão da lógica neoliberal teve efeitos negativos sobre a política e sobre a nossa forma de pensar e sentir, provocando dinâmicas de erosão da democracia, como estamos vivendo agora. O historiador Quinn Slobodian, autor do livro Globalistas: o fim do império e o nascimento do neoliberalismo, entende que o projeto neoliberal tem como objetivo criar instituições para proteger o capitalismo da ameaça que a própria democracia representa. E essas novas instituições serviriam para reorganizar o mundo como um espaço de Estados-competidores. Tatiane: Mas o espantalho do “globalismo” não se aproveitou apenas da crítica progressista e da insatisfação real com a globalização. Ele também acionou suas próprias assombrações. Para entender isso é preciso voltar no tempo, lá pros anos 1940, ao final da II Guerra Mundial. Na verdade, vamos voltar até um pouco mais, com a ajuda da Sonia Correa. Sonia Corrêa: Bom, para compreender essa posição dos globalistas há um aspecto que não pode ser perdido de vista. Para a direita, a ultra direita norte americana desde o começo do século XX, pelo menos, foi avessa a uma ordem institucional transnacional. E essa ultra direita raiz, fez uma enorme oposição à adesão dos Estados Unidos à Primeira Guerra Mundial. Tiveram posições contra a Liga das Nações e certamente fizeram pressão contra a entrada dos Estados Unidos na Segunda Guerra Mundial. Ou seja, tem um DNA muito profundo aí na ultra direita norte americana, que é contrário a existência de uma ordem internacional de regulação global. É porque eles a veem como um contraponto ou uma possível ameaça à ordem hegemônica dos Estados Unidos como império. Eu acho que um outro aspecto a considerar que, se isso é, são as correntes de ultra direita norte americana e outras correntes, como por exemplo, a posição do Dugin, o intelectual russo sobre isso e talvez de segmentos das correntes européias. E tem a ver com um repúdio. Como essas forças fazem um repúdio à ideia da modernidade, os princípios liberais de democracia e direitos humanos. E há uma conexão também por esse lado, que é, digamos, mais filosófica e menos estratégica política. Tatiane: Além da cooperação multilateral econômica, os países criaram também um sistema para prevenir novos conflitos bélicos e promover a paz. Sim, estou falando da Organização das Nações Unidas, a ONU. Daniel: No contexto dos giros políticos à ultradireita que tem varrido as Américas e a Europa hoje, os discursos anti-globalistas fizeram da ONU um de seus alvos principais. Seus detratores a descrevem como um aparato de dominação que quer impor sua agenda aos estados nacionais. Ao fazer isso ofuscam o que é de fato a ONU. Não sei pra você, mas até aqui essa história de globalismo continua bem confusa pra mim. Então, pra gente continuar destrinchando esse termo, falamos com o Fernando Brancoli. Ele é professor do Instituto de Relações Internacionais e Defesa, da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro e adicionou elementos que nos ajudam a desarmar qualquer confusão que o termo globalismo possa provocar. Fernando Brancoli: Bom, eu acho que um ponto interessante é a gente imaginar que o discurso antiglobalista, ele não é uma rejeição integral aos princípios da globalização, né? A gente está falando de uma reconfiguração seletiva no que seria uma espécie de dispositivo narrativo, né? Que separa, separaria, uma globalização boa para esses grupos de extrema direita, uma aproximação que permeia dimensões ligadas a interesses morais, econômicos, culturais e o que eles vão chamar muitas vezes de globalismo, né, que seria uma globalização ruim, que seria um conjunto de normas e procedimentos derivados principalmente do pós-guerra fria, que promoveria aí uma agenda ligada a valores liberais, a direitos sexuais, a direitos humanos, políticas ambientais, que de alguma maneira estariam violando então a soberania dos países, e na verdade tentando, dentro de uma teoria da conspiração bastante clássica, implementar uma agenda de uma espécie de camarilha internacional dos Illuminati e coisas parecidas, né? Tatiane: A professora de sociologia na Universidade de Oxford, Rita Abrahamsen, faz uma análise interessante sobre este tema do espaço transnacional. Pra ela a extrema direita é em si mesma global, ao mesmo tempo em que seus idealizadores ocultam de maneira muito hábil essa transnacionalidade. O Fernando também elaborou sobre essa dimensão oculta, o que nos ajuda a esclarecer uma outra confusão de que as vozes que propagam o fantasma do Globalismo reivindicam para si, como sujeitos nacionalistas ou soberanistas: Fernando Brancoli: Muitas vezes a gente fala dessas redes antiglobalistas como se elas fossem necessariamente não transnacionais, o que não é verdade. O que elas estão fazendo é reconfigurando um pouco esse dispositivo narrativo. E acho que quem está acompanhando a gente talvez já tenha escutado essa história: “Ah, o Trump é um isolacionista”. Não necessariamente, né? A gente não está falando de uma antiglobalização de necessariamente fechamento completo das fronteiras. Você tem uma recalibragem dessa dinâmica, de um projeto novo de recentralização de poder. Então, sim, eu posso ter dinâmicas mais isolacionistas em alguma medida, construção de muros, expulsão de migrantes e refugiados, fechamento de trocas comerciais tipicamente liberais, mas ao mesmo tempo eu tenho aproximação para outros lados, né? Em que eu apoio ditaduras amigas, eu argumento que posso criar coletivos transnacionais de apoio a dinâmicas de moralidade. Então acho que esse paradoxo, no final das contas … Eu diria que é a grande força dela, que é criar essa espécie muito peculiar de uma internacional nacionalista. Daniel: Fernando também recorre a uma metáfora de verniz legitimador para explicar essa mistura paradoxal de discursos que juntam nacionalismo ou antiglobalismo para servir a interesses muito específicos: Fernando Brancoli: Esse paradoxo é a grande força dentro desse processo. [03:30] A genealogia dessas dinâmicas já passa por think tanks dos Estados Unidos e a gente tem livros importantes acadêmicos já descrevendo como é que eles se expandiram pelo globo ao longo pelo menos nas últimas duas décadas, né? Então são grupos de pesquisa, são empresas que de alguma maneira promovem esse tipo de ideário. Tatiane: Pra entender melhor como esse paradoxo funciona, pedimos pro Fernando explicar como esses discursos colam, como eles têm aderência a uma massa bastante volumosa, que inclusive elege conscientemente essas figuras. Ao mesmo tempo em que batem no peito e dizem: “EU SOU patriota, EU VOU defender meu país”, entregam de mãos abertas a exploração das riquezas naturais brasileiras — como a Amazônia,os minérios e, agora, as Terras Raras do país — a uma potência imperialista como os Estados Unidos. Além disso, defendem intervenções externas, como a retirada forçada de um presidente, e apoiam movimentos extremistas que ameaçam o próprio país. Fernando Brancoli: Acho que essa aparente contradição, né, de uma internacional nacionalista, a ideia de como é que eu crio alianças entre partidos e grupos que são notadamente, introspectivos diante desse tipo de processo, eh, na verdade, é a maior força desses grupos. É a ideia de mobilizar esse paradoxo. E não se trata necessariamente de, uma dinâmica que vai gerar problemas na frente, eu vou tentar explicar porquê dentro desse processo. Acho que a primeira configuração é que sejam partidos de extrema direita no contexto brasileiro, sejam grupos não partidários, como, por exemplo, grupos evangélicos mais conservadores no contexto brasileiro, sejam grupos mega ortodoxos sionistas em Israel, ou seja, agora, o Partido Republicano nos Estados Unidos. Todos eles olham para o transnacionalismo como uma forma de ganhar poder e ganhar prestígio, então a gente tá falando de recursos que circulam nesse processo. A gente tem por exemplo grupos em Israel, grupos não tradicionais do Brasil como partidos ligados a lideranças religiosas e coisas parecidas que de alguma maneira olham para esse processo e veem a transnacionalização como uma ferramenta de ganhar poder e prestígio, seja simbólico ou material. Exemplo clássico que eu acho bastante interessante, parte importante dos grupos de extrema direita em Israel, dos mais ortodoxos, são financiados por capitalistas norte-americanos. Né? Isso não é uma teoria de conspiração, eles argumentam que essa grana seria interessante. Tem um trabalho interessante da Camille Rocha, né? Menos Marx e mais Mises, um livro fascinante em que ela descreve como é que os norte-americanos financiaram grupos liberais e anarco-capitalistas, sabe-se lá o que que é isso, no contexto brasileiro. Então, lembrar que esse transnacionalismo tem dimensões práticas muito claras, né? Daniel: Aqui, de novo fica claro que o transnacionalismo pode ter dimensões práticas, e que ele serve para alguns interesses. Ou seja, mesmo sendo nacionalista, dá pra ser transnacionalista quando você, ou o país, pode ter dividendos importantes. Brancoli usou o exemplo de Eduardo Bolsonaro para mostrar como contatos estratégicos com a ultra-direita ajudaram a movimentação para as taxações sobre produtos brasileiros e a suspensão de vistos para autoridades envolvidas na condenação do pai. Mas o professor dá outros exemplos, segundo ele mais simbólicos, como contatos pessoais, encontros ou declarações nos quais se aprende essa lógica transnacional. Fernando Brancoli: Você tem encontro do Vox, por exemplo, que é o partido de extrema direita na Espanha, que eles têm uma sessão à tarde do último dia, que é para ensinar técnicas do que eles chamam engajamento digital. Em que você senta com lideranças políticas do globo inteiro numa mesa e te ensinam como é que você faz para, por exemplo, ter acesso mais interessante de pessoas, formar cortes e vídeos bacanas. Eu lembro que nos últimos 3 anos quem esteve lá foi o Nicolas, deputado é, federal de Minas, que é um cara, né, muito especializado em gerar cortes e coisas parecidas. Eu acho que ele já tinha uma capacidade de fazer isso, mas provavelmente ele aprendeu também nesse contexto. Repare como é que o transnacionalismo dentro dessa lógica gera esse tipo de prática. E por fim, o transnacionalismo, ele facilita algo que é muito típico de grupos autoritários que é a possibilidade de criar um mundo binário, né? De você criar um nós contra eles de maneira muito muito clara. Acho que, né, a gente que estuda relações internacionais, quem tem acesso, né, à imprensa, sabe que é muito difícil você criar uma narrativa muito clara de bonzinhos e malvados dentro de um contexto, né? Você vê nuances, você vê pessoas muitas vezes em busca da paz dos dois lados e coisas parecidas, né? Tatiane: E nessa disputa entre nós e eles, surgem dois pólos entre o bem e o mal. E quem é o bem? Quem é o mal? A ultra direita entende que está do lado do bem, de que quem defende a “família” e os valores tradicionais. Mas quem não defende a família, ou as famílias? A sua família? Os seus valores tradicionais, na sua tradição? E para quem está nesse campo da ultra direita, o mal é o socialismo, o comunismo, a esquerda. De novo aqui o Fernando: Fernando Brancoli: Existe aqueles que do outro lado, que é o mal, que é o PT, o MST, o Foro de São Paulo e a Venezuela, que querem acabar com esses valores, querem destruir todos esses dessas menções. Aí repare como é que esses vetores se aproximam, né? Uma dinâmica de moralidade, uma dinâmica econômica, então vira um caldo complexo aqui dentro desse tipo de processo. Nós somos soberanos ainda, no caso brasileiro, estaremos tentando retomar essa soberania agora que foi roubada pelo PT e temos um governo aliado norte-americano que está tentando nos ajudar nesse processo. Mas eu acho que esse paradoxo ele acaba sendo de alguma maneira articulado e promovido de maneira interessante. Ainda tem um paradoxo aqui, que é para você ser essencialmente nacionalista e mobilizar dinâmicas transnacionais. Mas acho que mesmo a tentativa de encontrar um meio-termo já facilita e já gera repercussões interessantes. E aí você tem em todo protesto no Brasil, cartazes em inglês, bandeiras dos Estados Unidos, bandeiras de Israel, você tem a a deputados fugindo para a Itália, onde seria supostamente, né, um lugar mais conservador. Ao que tudo indica a Zambelli não vai conseguir ficar por lá há muito tempo. Mas aí você tem o Eduardo Bolsonaro, né, indo para os Estados Unidos, você tem essas mobilizações, isso vai gerando repercussões e impactos e pelo menos são simbólicos gera mídia, a população fica engajada. Então, de alguma maneira tem algo interessante que a gente tá vendo e os manuais de ciência política e de relações internacionais estão todos passando mal por causa disso, que a esquerda tá se transformando por um lado numa defensora do multilateralismo. Daniel: Tem também a China se apresentando como defensora da OMC e contra tarifas praticadas pelos Estados Unidos. Isso também é uma mudança do contexto da esquerda, como disse nosso entrevistado. A gente tem um deslocamento também, eu diria, do que vai ser o discurso progressista de esquerda ao longo dos próximos anos. A esquerda se apropriou mais de discursos ligados à proteção da indústria nacional, né, contra ALCA e o FMI, contra as empresas estrangeiras, e agora de alguma maneira a gente está vendo uma rearticulação desse tipo de processo. É, a gente está inaugurando uma forma nova de olhar para relações internacionais, em parte porque também está tendo uma rearticulação de como esses grupos de poder estão se configurando. Ninguém tem muita certeza para onde que a gente vai, mas acho que uma das certezas que a gente vai ter que os manuais de relações internacionais e ciência política vão ter que ser reescritos ao longo dos próximos anos, porque as coisas estão mudando de maneira bastante explícita, né? Muito. Tatiane: Sonia Corrêa diz que há duas saídas pra grande confusão que apresentamos aqui entre nacionalismo e globalismo. A primeira é o progressivismo internacionalista que remete para o internacionalismo histórico da esquerda, e a segunda é o que pode ser chamado de constitucionalismo de esquerda. Ela explica melhor do que se trata. Sonia Correa: O que importa é chamar a atenção para essa mélange de posições que requer clarificação, porque, de fato, a crítica do globalismo, ela chove num terreno fértil, que é a crítica do neoliberalismo e da ordem capitalista, não é? Ela ecoa nesse lugar. Ela move afetos, afetos legítimos de crítica. A racionalidade neoliberal e a ordem do capitalismo tardio. A diferença está como diz o Slobodan, em qual a saída? A diferença de visão ideológica é como você sai disso. Se você for para o campo do Dugin, que é a teoria da quarta transformação, é uma ordem. Uma proposição de um retorno a uma ordem de fato quase medieval, quer dizer centrada na terra, no território, numa cultura comum, numa ordem hierárquica. Se você olha para o campo da direita. Num certo sentido, Trump é a manutenção da ordem neoliberal e da racionalidade neoliberal extrema, demolição do Estado. Todo o poder às Big Techs. Aqui são os meus amigos Better Friend Ever, sob um invólucro, uma casca de nacionalismo extremado. Make American big again. Tatiane: Voltando um pouco atrás, no verbete para o Dicionário de Termos Ambíguos, e no tempo, Douglas lembrou da influência de Ernesto Araújo e de Olavo de Carvalho sobre o governo Bolsonaro, no sentido da adoção de uma posição antiglobalista. Vale lembrar que mesmo antes de ser eleito, Bolsonaro afirmava que a ONU não servia para nada e que iria tirar o Brasil do Conselho de Direitos Humanos. Em sua primeira aparição na Assembleia Geral da ONU em 2019, o ex-presidente fez a seguinte afirmação: Sonora Jair Bolsonaro: “Não estamos aqui para apagar nacionalidades e soberanias em nome de um interesse global abstrato. Esta não é a Organização do Interesse Global! É a Organização das Nações Unidas. Assim deve permanecer!” Daniel: Douglas também escreveu no verbete que Ernesto Araújo afirmava que o caminho para reverter os efeitos negativos do globalismo seria adotar uma política pautada por deus, pátria e família. Com certeza vocês ouviram isso muitas vezes, né? Só pra lembrar, esse é o slogan da Ação Integralista, movimento fascista brasileiro da década de 1930, copiado do movimento fascista italiano. Tatiane: Ainda segundo o verbete a espiritualidade cristã caracterizaria o ocidente e diferenciaria as nações ocidentais do materialismo asiático e do islamismo. Por outro lado, a família é definida como a célula basilar da nação, o apego à família seria um traço fundamental do povo brasileiro o qual, nas palavras de Araújo, se vê hoje frontalmente atacado por “ideologia de gênero”, “gayzismo” e “abortismo”. Daniel: O “globalismo”, na visão de Ernesto Araújo, seria um projeto de governo totalitário mundial, capitaneado pela China e com o apoio da Rússia. E nessa versão do antiglobalismo, existiria um complô entre as elites financeiras ocidentais e o Partido Comunista da China para a implantação de uma sociedade de controle. O ex-ministro ainda afirmava que a China controlava metade do parlamento brasileiro e toda a nossa agricultura, e queria controlar nossa Internet. Tatiane: Bem, essa tentativa de controle da internet a gente já tá vendo que existe mesmo, mas não por acaso, esse controle não está na China, né? E além desta, qual outra afirmação, entre as muitas feitas aqui, parecem verdadeiras? E quais delas são pura fantasmagoria criada no meio das muitas confusões que esse termo cria? De quais fantasias ele depende para se manter? Bem, responder a tudo isso demandaria uma boa aula de muitas horas… Mas, podemos explicar aqui essa confusão entre os muitos alvos de ataque das vozes “antiglobalistas” Daniel: Mas nem todos os anti globalistas têm o mesmo inimigo. Há diferenças em relação aos alvos dos “antiglobalistas”. Nos Estados Unidos, por exemplo, Trump se utiliza do discurso “antiglobalista” para atacar as “elites liberais”, associadas ao partido democrata estadunidense. Já aqui no Brasil, Bolsonaro denunciava a “conspiração comunista” da qual participaria o PT, assimilando a visão “antiglobalista” ao discurso anticomunista. Douglas Sanque conta um pouco dessas forças globalistas. Tatiane: Douglas é professor na Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro, a UERJ e é o autor do verbete sobre Globalismo do dicionário que estamos tratando aqui. Ele escreveu o verbete durante a pandemia do Covid-19, em pleno governo Bolsonaro, quando nele discursavam, pra não dizer doutrinavam, antiglobalistas assumidos como Olavo de Carvalho, professor e ideólogo de Bolsonaro, e Ernesto Araújo, que foi ministro de relações exteriores até 2021. Douglas Sanque: Bom, em relação a essa noção de quem seriam as chamadas forças globalistas, primeiro, a ideia aqui é pensar que as forças globalistas teriam o objetivo de estabelecer um controle mundial, um governo global, totalitarista. E isso é, em alguma medida, uma perversão da ideia de aumento de influência que potências econômicas sempre tentaram exercer de maneira mais ou menos ética. Mas não se tenta um governo global totalitário, assim inspirado naquela ideia de 1984 do George Orwell. O principal projeto globalista seria capitaneado pela China. Os chineses teriam essa ideia, teriam esse objetivo de longo prazo de controle mundial. Então, seriam as elites liberais do Ocidente que estariam nesse projeto junto ao Partido Comunista Chinês. Essa é a perspectiva, digamos, principal, que é adotada, por exemplo, pelo Steve Bannon e que guia o assim chamado antiglobalismo, ou o nacionalismo americano, que estaria combatendo essas próprias elites, representando o povo, o blue color, os trabalhadores e a classe média americana que, de fato, viu muita s perdas com o processo de desindustrialização dos Estados Unidos ao longo do século XX, e grande parte dessas plantas industriais foi para a China. Tatiane: Claro que isso causou mudanças significativas na economia americana, que tem levado o país, de forma mais incisiva neste novo governo de Donald Trump, a criar estratégias de proteção econômica. Durante o governo Bolsonaro, quando o Olavo de Carvalho, exercia influência sobre ministros e filho do então presidente, tratou da versão caseira de teoria da conspiração, como nos conta Douglas. Douglas Sanque: O Olavo dizia que havia três projetos globalistas em curso. Em diferentes escalas e com diferentes objetivos. O primeiro seria esse tocado pela China, que tentaria ali uma ideia de governo global, mais ou menos nesses moldes que eu já mencionei. O segundo seria o projeto do Irã. O Irã também teria esse objetivo de governo global, a partir do espraiamento do islamismo, né? Na verdade, a ideia seria um governo global, totalitário islâmico e a principal força por trás desse projeto seria o Irã, que tem ali uma. População muçulmana xiita. Enfim, você tem uma pluralidade importante naturalmente no Irã, mas. Daniel: O terceiro projeto seria tocado pelas elites financeiras ocidentais. Nessa perspectiva, representada por autores como o russo Aleksandr Dugin [DUGAN], a tentativa de estabelecer uma governança global teria origem no Ocidente, especialmente nos Estados Unidos, vistos como a principal expressão da modernidade ocidental. Nessa visão, esse projeto deveria ser combatido por forças tradicionalistas que defendem a preservação de identidades culturais próprias e de modos de vida considerados mais enraizados nas tradições locais e rurais. Douglas Sanque: Então você tem pensadores, como o Olavo de Carvalho, o Steve Bannon e o Dugin, e os líderes daqui que conseguiram ascender, com esse pensamento, ao poder nos seus países. O Putin na Rússia, o Trump nos Estados Unidos e o Jair aqui no Brasil. A questão é que, como esse pensamento tem muito pouca, digamos, base material, ele vai se moldando pra acomodar os interesses políticos dos líderes. Então a gente pode pensar, por exemplo, no Brasil como o Bolsonaro, se se elege em oposição a um projeto que seria de esquerda e que, na opinião deles, é comunista. A ideia de liberalismo econômico é uma ideia que faz sentido e que pode ser defendida. Os russos têm um papel curioso, porque em diversas situações eles são vistos ali como como uma espécie de braço ou de sócio minoritário dos chineses. Mas ao mesmo tempo, estive vendo, um entende que os russos deveriam estar nessa luta por conta de uma certa essência da identidade russa. É como, como sendo da Igreja Ortodoxa nós teríamos a mesma alma cristã. E tudo se opondo então ao materialismo que caracterizaria o projeto chinês De extirpar a religião da da vida em comunidade. Então a gente percebe que há uma certa coerência no pensamento do globalismo, no sentido de criar uma ordem global que separa muito claramente quem são os mocinhos e quem são os bandidos. Que coloca em uma nação específica. E normalmente é a China, a fonte de todo mal. E aí, contra isso, vale tudo. E nós estamos numa batalha aqui para salvar a nossa nação, para salvar as nossas tradições, para manter o nosso povo e por aí vai. Tatiane: Pois é, as mudanças estão bastante evidentes e não sei se são para melhor. Desde que fizemos as entrevistas para este episódio, algumas coisas mudaram. O primeiro-ministro da Hungria, Viktor Orbán, um dos principais líderes da extrema-direita global, perdeu as eleições após 16 anos no poder. Estados Unidos e Israel estão promovendo uma grande guerra na Ásia Ocidental, atacando o Irã e o Líbano, sem contar o genocídio que Israel já vinha praticando na Palestina. Aqui na América Latina, os resultados das eleições presidenciais de 2026 em países como Colômbia, Peru e Chile não foram nem um pouco animadores. E neste ano também teremos eleições no Brasil, já com dois extremistas como candidatos: Ronaldo Caiado, pelo PSD, e Flávio Bolsonaro, herdeiro do legado do pai que foi condenado a 27 anos de prisão, e agora também envolvido em um processo de lavagem de dinheiro ligado ao Banco Master. A extrema direita vem ganhando espaço em muitos países, sempre colocando em risco a democracia e os direitos civis.

Ungarn im Rachemodus: Orbán gegen Magyar Ungarn hat Viktor Orbán abgewählt – doch der Machtkampf beginnt offenbar erst jetzt. Die neue Regierung unter Péter Magyar geht mit scharfer Rhetorik gegen die frühere Fidesz-Führung vor; erste Beamte sitzen bereits in Untersuchungshaft, selbst eine strafrechtliche Verfolgung Orbáns scheint nicht ausgeschlossen. Orbán wiederum spricht von einer neuen „Willkürherrschaft“, ruft seine Anhänger zum Widerstand auf und will Fidesz zum Sammelbecken der Opposition umbauen. Droht Ungarn eine politische Abrechnung, bei der Rechtsstaat und Verfassung unter die Räder geraten? Darüber sprechen wir mit dem TE Ungarn-Korrespondenten Boris Kálnoky.
WarRoom Battleground EP 1055: With Viktor Orbán's Longtime Political Director Balázs Orbán And German AfD Euro-MP Petr Bystron
After more than a decade of Viktor Orban's rule, Hungary has entered a new political chapter. In this episode, Andrew Keen speaks with cultural anthropologist Marc Loustau about how Orban built an illiberal state, why his political project ultimately faltered, and what Hungary's experience can teach democracies around the world about resisting authoritarianism. From the role of the European Union to the importance of broad democratic coalitions, this conversation explores both the vulnerabilities and resilience of democratic institutions.
Hegseth tells the Senate that the Iran war has cost an estimated $37.5 billion, Trump imposes 50% tariffs on $20 billion in Canadian goods, Ortega declares 'no more elections' in Nicaragua, Hungarian prosecutors raid the offices of Viktor Orbán's Fidesz party, prosecutors say that Ann Widdecombe died after being struck repeatedly with a hammer, police and protesters clash in Italy after the death of a detained man, the U.N. estimates that almost one in three people cannot afford a healthy diet, Congo's Ebola death toll reaches nearly 1,000, An appeals court rejects Biden's attempt to block the release of recordings from his interviews with a ghostwriter, and Trump's AI security agency chief resigns.

With Andrej Babiš back in power, Czechia's civil society is warning the country may follow Hungary and Slovakia down an authoritarian path.In this Talk Eastern Europe Deep Dive, Nina Pániková speaks with Mikuláš Minář, founder and chairman of Million Moments for Democracy, at the UNLOCK Summit in Prague.Minář recounts how a single moment before the 2017 Czech election transformed him from a philosophy student into one of the country's most prominent civic activists. He explains how Million Moments for Democracy mobilized hundreds of thousands of people, helped strengthen democratic participation ahead of the 2021 election and became an inspiration for civic movements elsewhere in Europe.The conversation examines Andrej Babiš's return to power, threats to Czech public media and civil society, the role of opposition parties and the danger of the Czech Republic following the political trajectory of Viktor Orbán's Hungary or Robert Fico's Slovakia.Minář also explains why protest alone is no longer enough, why civic movements must remain independent while still engaging with politicians, and how small everyday actions can generate the collective power needed to protect democracy.Can grassroots activism once again change the direction of Czech politics?Talk Eastern Europe is the podcast from New Eastern Europe magazine - your trusted source for in-depth analysis and expert perspectives on Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, and the post-Soviet space.ABOUT THIS PODCASTWe publish twice weekly:- Every Tuesday: Expert Interviews featuring deep dives with leading analysts, journalists, and scholars- Every Friday: Weekly News Roundup with essential updates and commentary on the latest developmentsAvailable on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube and all major platforms.Read the New Eastern Europe Magazine Bimonthly publication with exclusive long-form analysis. https://neweasterneurope.eu/become-a-member-of-new-eastern-europe/Support us on PatreonJoin our community for bonus content, early access, behind-the-scenes insights, and access to our exclusive WhatsApp group where we discuss the news in real-time.https://www.patreon.com/talkeasterneuropeSubscribe to the Brief Eastern Europe NewsletterWeekly briefing sent out every Monday with news updates, expert commentary, and our editorial picks - free to your inbox: https://briefeasterneurope.eu/subscribeFOLLOW USInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/neweasterneuropemag/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/NewEasternEurope/LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/new-eastern-europe/
Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 121-points this morning from Friday's close, at 42,793 on turnover of 15.5-billion N-T. The market saw its biggest single-day drop on record last Friday -- tumbling just over 2,950-points -- as a sell-off in artificial intelligence-related shares dragged Wall Street lower and weighed on global equities. President Lai honors F-16V pilot who died in January training accident President Lai Ching-te has presented a posthumous presidential citation (追授獎項) honoring Air Force pilot Hsin Po-yi. Hsin died after his F-16V fighter jet crashed during a nighttime training mission off of Hualien in January. Hsin's father, Hsin Chin-yu, accepted the citation from Lai at a ceremony. Hsin served with the Air Force's Hualien-based 5th Tactical Composite Wing and was posthumously promoted from captain to major and awarded the Order of Loyalty and Valor. Hsin's F-16V fighter jet disappeared from radar on the evening of January 6 on a routine raining mission shortly after he reported becoming separated from the lead aircraft while flying through clouds. The aircraft's flight data recorder was recovered in March.

US STRIKES ABADAN AS WASHINGTON FACES QUESTIONS OVER MILITARY READINESS FOR WIDER IRAN CONFLICT The United States struck targets on the outskirts of the Iranian city of Abadan on Sunday evening, extending what has now been more than a week of consecutive American strikes against Iran. The latest attack came as the White House faces accusations (指控) of sending mixed signals on its strategy — having reimposed sanctions on Iranian oil exports after initially lifting them under a memorandum of understanding that now appears to have collapsed. Kate Fisher reports from Washington. Nigeria UNICEF Warns of Child Malnutrition Health workers in northern Nigeria say more children are relapsing into malnutrition and cite knock-on effects from the war in the Middle East. The region is already under pressure from an insurgency crisis. The conflict in the Middle East has worsened food security for millions, especially children. UNICEF warns that if the war continues, millions more children could fall into poverty. The war has also affected fertilizer supplies and prices, threatening the planting season and worsening the fate (命運) of mostly farming communities in northern Nigeria. Hungary President Signs to End his Term Hungary's president has signed a constitutional amendment ending his term, resolving a dispute with the new government. Prime Minister Péter Magyar, who defeated Viktor Orbán in April, had urged Tamás Sulyok to resign, accusing him of failing to oppose Orbán's antidemocratic actions. When Sulyok refused, Magyar's party passed an amendment for his immediate removal. Sulyok signed it on the final day before the deadline. His term officially ends today. Magyar's government has been dismantling (拆解) Orbán's influence by removing appointees and making judicial reforms. It also plans to nominate a new president soon. That was the I.C.R.T.

Ontario is asking the federal government to be ready to help with wildfire evacuations -- but a volunteer emergency coordinator says the province should have been more prepared for this level of destruction.A former official with the Ukrainian government tells us why she's joined widespread protests, after Volodymyr Zelensky removes a defence minister who's been pivotal in the war against Russia. Hungarian lawmakers vote to remove the president, previously appointed by Viktor Orban. The former head of Hungary's supreme court says that move is problematic, but necessary. There's been a lot of discussion as the Assembly of First Nations convened for meetings in Ottawa -- and National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak says clean drinking water and wildfires were at the top of the agenda.

Am 1. Juli 2026 sprach Bence Bauer, Direktor des Deutsch-Ungarischen Instituts des Mathias Corvinus Collegiums, über das Ergebnis der ungarischen Parlamentswahl vom 12. April 2026 und die neue Regierung des Wahlsiegers Peter Magyar von der «Tisza». Die vom bisherigen Ministerpräsidenten Viktor Orbán geführte Partei «Fidesz» habe die Wahl krachend verloren. «Tisza» verfüge jetzt über eine Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit im Parlament, wodurch Verfassungsänderungen künftig leicht möglich seien. * Bitte unterstützen Sie die Arbeit der Bibliothek des Konservatismus mit einer Spende! * PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QEPQL6C6EZW24 Banküberweisung: Förderstiftung Konservative Bildung und Forschung IBAN: DE15 1009 0000 2125 2750 04 BIC: BEVODEBB * Einen Überblick über die Arbeit der Bibliothek und die nächsten Veranstaltungen finden Sie unter https://www.bdk-berlin.org/ * Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bdk.bln Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bdk_berlin/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BdK_Berlin Gettr: https://gettr.com/user/bdk_berlin
This week we talk about Russia, Ukraine, and the Warsaw Pact.We also discuss Patriot interceptors, Hungary, and Article 5.Recommended Book: The Alternative by Nick RomeoTranscriptThe North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, was founded in the wake of WWII, in 1949, in order to affirm unity between non-Soviet European nations, Atlantic nations like Greenland and Iceland, and the US and Canada, over in North America.The main purpose of this unity was to establish a sort of firewall around the western perimeter of the Soviet Union, which at the time was the only global superpower other than the US, because much of the world, but especially Europe, was struggling to recover from the destruction wrought during the second world war, and the Soviets had made pretty clear that they intended to take over everything: they'd already gobbled up most of their neighbors, creating an increasingly expansive buffer zone of Soviet states around their central, Russian territory, and most of the conflicts still playing out, or threatening to play out, globally at this point were either overt or slightly concealed proxy fights between the capitalist democratic forces of the West and the authoritarian, Stalinist forces of the Eastern Soviet bloc.NATO was thus a wall of nations that said, hey, if you attack any of us, that will mean you're attacking all of us. And that ‘all of us' included the United States, which was the only individual force capable of standing up to the Soviets at this point, due to its massive conventional military force, and the threat posed by its huge, and still growing, nuclear weapons arsenal.The Soviet counter to NATO was called the Warsaw Pact, which formed in 1955, and these rival alliances carved up Europe during the latter half of the 20th century, until the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.As military alliances go, NATO has been fairly successful—Article 5, the portion of the agreement that triggers if a NATO member is attacked, calling the other members to come to their aid, was only activated once, following the terrorist attacks on the US on September 11, 2001; that led to NATO involvement in the US's attacks on Afghanistan in subsequent years, though NATO forces also periodically got involved in other regional conflicts, like the Kosovo War in 1999, and the Libyan Civil War in 2011, in both cases working with the UN to protect civilians from the actions of violent leaders or assailants. But beyond that, no one, including the Soviets, messed with NATO.NATO has since accepted sixteen new member states, and that expansion is one of the supposed rationales for Russian President Putin's invasion of Ukraine. During Putin's first presidency, Russia and NATO had been on pretty solid, even cooperative terms, which had some questioning the point of the treaty, since it was originally formed to counter Russian aggression. In Putin's second presidency, though, things took an antagonistic turn, and when Russia illegally invaded and annexed a part of Ukraine, called Crimea, back in 2014, NATO ceased all cooperation with Russia.When Russian forces launched a full invasion of Ukraine in 2022, NATO suddenly seemed more important than ever, as a reinvigorated Russia, with the stated purpose of, in Putin's words, reclaiming portions of Europe that were previously part of the extended Soviet Union, parts of the Warsaw Pact, that posed a serious threat to just about everyone, especially European nations that border Russia and Russian allies, like Belarus.What I'd like to talk about today is the 2026 meeting of NATO leaders, and the general state of affairs on the ground in Ukraine, as of mid-2026.—Leaders of NATO member nations typically meet for a summit each year, though the schedule varies a bit, depending on the needs of the moment, and whether there are any NATO-relevant crises that might nudge things forward or cause them to be delayed.The 2026 NATO summit was held in Turkey's capitol city, Ankara, on July 7 and 8. It was the second such summit hosted by Turkey, and the 36th NATO summit, overall.This meeting was notable for several reasons, many of them directly related to Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine, but also the US's continued ambivalence, at times bordering on active antagonism, toward the treaty, under the Trump administration.Over the course of the past 4 years, Russia has continued to make threats toward the rest of Europe, implying or suggesting that it might have to act militarily against its NATO-member neighbors. During the same period, the US has criticized European NATO member states for not carrying their own weight, most of these nations not spending enough of their GDP on their military and defense infrastructure, in accordance with their treaty obligations, and most more or less relying on the US's military (and nuclear) umbrella to threaten would-be attackers.This has long been the NATO state of affairs, but under the Trump administration, the US made it a point of contention. And though it's been a relatively slow process—it's not easy for a government to pivot toward that scale of remilitarization—these nations have agreed to a 5% of GDP target for defense and defense-related spending by 2035, and in the last year alone, European and Canadian defense spending has increase by 20%; not all of which is immediately convertible into useful, front-line assets and soldiers, but it does represent a significant change to the status quo, which could eventually, in less than a decade, result in a European front-line that's more European and less NATO, for the first time since that immediate post-WWII period.This meeting also featured a reaffirmation of Article 5, which has always been there and in effect, but some analysis has questioned whether NATO allies, including the US, would actually step up if Russia were to attack the Baltics, for instance. This is a seemingly small move that serves to underline that stance of, if you attack one of us, you've attacked all of us, at a moment in which Russia seems to be toying with the idea of picking off pieces of the alliance, to see if they can get away with it, like they did with Crimea back in 2014.There were also announcements related to a fresh $50 billion in defense industry deals, NATO members investing heavily in US-made arms and new assets from elsewhere across the bloc, and a lot of that money is going to drone-war infrastructure and militarized AI models that they hope will prepare NATO for current and next-generation conflicts. Another $217 billion in additional financing commitments from banks across the bloc have also been announced.Ukraine scored some pretty big wins at this year's NATO summit, getting a license from the US to build Patriot interceptors, the lack of which have resulted in big gaps in the country's defense system, and about $80 billion in military equipment, assistance, and training for Ukrainian forces was committed by the bloc. There was also a verbal commitment that NATO and its allies “stand united in our unwavering support for Ukraine in defending its freedom, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.” Which isn't nothing, at a moment in which the US is led by Trump, a person who has frequently sided with Putin in Ukraine-related matters.Ukraine has also signed some bilateral drone deals with NATO member states, reaffirming that Ukraine has become one of the most in-demand experts on this subject, at a moment in which it's becoming clearer and clearer that low-cost, high-impact drones and similar technologies are likely to dominate battlefields for the foreseeable future.There were also some tensions, mostly sparked by Trump, over his administration's desire to buy Greenland, which is not a notion that's supported by anyone else in the bloc, and the lack of NATO support for the US's war in Iran.Overall, though, there was a decent sense of unity and progress, and Ukraine, again, not a NATO member state, but a nation that hopes to eventually join NATO, received a warm welcome and a bunch of support, which hasn't always been the case at recent summits.Part of that warmth is likely the consequence of Ukraine's recent victories on and off the battlefield.Russian continues to pummel Ukrainian cities and kill Ukrainian soldiers and civilians en masse, but Ukraine has managed to keep them from gobbling up territory on scale, and in some recents months, has actually taken territory back. They've also gotten very good at successfully attacking Russian infrastructure, especially energy infrastructure, like oil refineries, cargo tankers, and energy storage facilities, across the entire expanse of Russia; something few experts would have predicted that Ukraine would be capable of doing at the beginning of this conflict. This has dramatically weakened Russia's economy, at least in the short-term.Ukraine now has a thriving defense industry, predicated on the rapid iteration of inexpensive but disproportionately sophisticated arms, especially drones and other aerial weapons, but also autonomous speed boats and other such asymmetric systems. Russia has been frantically upgrading its systems, too, but now that Ukraine has figured out methods for bypassing or overwhelming Russian defenses, it's been able to strike, quickly and repeatedly, high-value targets that have brought the war home to normal Russians who live far from the front lines, even in Moscow. That combined with strategies and weapons that have turned the frontlines into a meat-grinder for Russian soldiers has weighed heavily on Russian morale, at least for those with boots on the ground.As a consequence of those energy infrastructure attacks, the Russian government has been forced to ration some types of energy product—a huge embarrassment for a country that has at times been called a gas station run by a mafia, their energy products are fundamental to who they are, and their economy—and Russians in Crimea, which was taken from Ukraine more than a decade ago, have been fleeing, as this peninsula is close to Ukraine, is part of Ukraine, just occupied by Russia right now, and has several vulnerable arteries through which people and supplies are shipped from Russia, and those arteries have been frequently attacked and are difficult to protect.Ukraine is still persistently on the back foot, then, and still facing an enemy that has essentially every advantage, from money to manpower to foreign support to the size of its arsenal.Against all odds, though, Ukraine continues to not just hold its ground, but to build up its military capabilities, innovate on existing models, and perform high-leverage attacks against its in every way superior invader; which is, in turn, netting it more support from outside allies that have, at times, wavered—and that's especially true of the US under the Trump administration, but until recently the EU's support has also been hamstrung by the recently usurped Hungarian leader, and Putin ally, Viktor Orbán. Following Orbán's ouster, the EU was able to move forward with paused support commitments, though, and while Trump is still holding back on much of the same from the US, there's a chance that more success by Ukraine will continue to tip the balance away from total freeze-out, to more, and more substantial, if perhaps still grudging, support.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATOhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Ankara_NATO_summithttps://understandingwar.org/research/russia-ukraine/russian-occupation-update-july-9-2026/https://acleddata.com/monitor/ukraine-conflict-monitorhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Ukrainian_war_(2022%E2%80%93present)https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/08/world/europe/a-license-to-make-patriot-defense-systems-may-be-a-big-boost-for-ukraine.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/06/world/europe/ukraine-russia-patriot-air-defense.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/07/04/world/europe/ukraine-russia-crimea-war-strikes.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/09/world/europe/ukraine-patriots-trump-russia.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/08/world/europe/russia-nato-europe-ukraine.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/07/world/europe/nato-trump-rutte-ankara-turkey.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/03/world/europe/putin-ukraine-donbas-battlefield-visit.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/03/world/europe/russia-gas-shortages.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/02/world/europe/russia-ukraine-military-battlefield.htmlhttps://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-war-oil-trump-zelenskyy-putin-6cb5602f1cf309533ed0cf5c734e19d8https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c70yd1g67z5ohttps://www.france24.com/en/russia-bans-oil-exports-as-ukraine-strikes-cause-fuel-shortageshttps://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/ukraine-creates-long-range-military-071810180.htmlhttps://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/10/ukraine-russia-crimea-fuel-oil.htmlhttps://www.dw.com/ru/reuters-rf-perekryla-azovodonskoj-kanal-posle-atak-bpla/a-77913327https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/10/politics/senators-agreement-trump-administration-russia-sanctionshttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/10/ukraine-war-briefing-kyiv-reaches-political-agreement-with-us-on-patriot-interceptor-production-licenceshttps://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/09/nato-trump-rutte-ukraine-russia-us-iran.htmlhttps://www.atlanticcouncil.org/dispatches/eleven-takeaways-from-the-nato-summit-in-ankara/https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/7/8/five-key-takeaways-from-the-nato-summit-in-ankarahttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/7/8/nato-pledges-70-billion-euros-for-ukraine-as-trump-praises-peace-progress This is a public episode.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Balázs Orbán about Viktor Orbán's election loss to Péter Magyar in the race for Prime Minister of Hungary and what it means for Viktor Orbán's future, national conservatism, and Europe; why he says European Union policies on migration, Ukraine, and sovereignty are reshaping Hungary; concerns over constitutional changes targeting political opponents; the future of border security, mass migration, and the EU Migration Pact; why he believes President Donald Trump and JD Vance are telling the truth about Europe's challenges; and much more.
Hungary's new "centrist" government is already rewriting the constitution to ban Viktor Orbán from ever running again. Why do Europe's elites keep pushing mass migration even as it strains their economies and schools? The answer may be more calculated than you think.

The work of Rod Dreher has a consistent theme: doom. He believes the collapse of Christianity has ushered civilizational decline in Europe, that we've traded our humanity for comfort, and he worries that totalitarianism is around the corner for the United States. “I'm worried about Weimar America,” he tells me. “It may not be Hitler 2.0, it may not be Stalin 2.0. It might be something all American, but it's not going to be what we're used to.” It's best not to dismiss him; he's been right before. We discuss how we got here and the dangers that still lie ahead when we grant godlike powers to our technology. 0:00 - Intro 1:41 - The role of Christianity in Western society 12:26 - Free speech in Western Europe 17:40 - Immigration and de-Christianization 23:55 - Viktor Orbán's Hungary 34:50 - "Weimar America" and the coming crisis 46:45 - Dreher's personal journey 55:12 - Dark re-enchantment and A.I. as a "vector for the demonic" (A full transcript of this episode is available on the Times website.)

It's Monday, June 29th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Hungarian homosexual pride march draws 100,000 On June 27th, at least 100,000 Hungarians gathered in 100-degree heat in Budapest to celebrate their 31st annual Homosexual Pride march, reports the Associated Press. It's the first such event since conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was defeated in the April election. To his credit, Orban had prohibited the portrayal or "promotion" of homosexuality and gender transition to minors in schools and media aimed at children. Plus, the Hungarian Parliament amended the civil registry law so that official documents permanently record a person's "sex at birth" which ensures that citizens cannot legally pretend to be the opposite sex. And the Parliament limited adoption to married heterosexual couples. Hungary does not allow homosexual marriage. Sadly, under new leadership, all of that may change. Leviticus 18:22 says, “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Venezuelan death toll skyrocketed to 1,430 people Tragically, the death toll in those two major Venezuelan earthquakes last Wednesday has skyrocketed from 164 to 1,430 as of June 27th, reports NBC News. Plus, there are an astounding 51,000 people missing. According to the BBC, emergency teams are still searching for people trapped in buildings that collapsed in the earthquakes. Antoan Marín said, "Rescue workers are overwhelmed. They are pulling people out with their bare hands.” Over 2,000 rescue units from 21 international groups are on the ground in Venezuela or en route. Samaritan's Purse airlifted an Emergency Hospital to Venezuela On Saturday, the Samaritan's Purse cargo plane airlifted life-saving supplies, including an Emergency Field Hospital, to Venezuela. Hospitals in the hardest hit areas were already strained before the earthquakes. Now, many are damaged and overwhelmed with people in desperate need of care. The Samaritan's Purse Emergency Field Hospital is capable of treating more than 100 people each day. It will be equipped with multiple operating rooms, a critical care unit, pharmacy, and laboratory. The ministry has also airlifted emergency shelter material, solar lights, and blankets to provide relief to families who are suffering. Franklin Graham, the president of Samaritan's Purse, said, “Roads have been split wide open and hundreds of buildings have collapsed. People are living on the streets—terrified of aftershocks. It's heartbreaking to see the suffering and loss. We love the people of this country, and we want to do all that we can to help in Jesus' Name.” Send a much-needed gift to help equip Samaritan's Purse in their rescue efforts in Venezuela through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 1 John 3:17 says, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” Three Democratic Socialists win in New York Three Democratic Socialists of America candidates beat establishment Democrats in New York City's June 23rd primary, winning with the backing from the city's democratic socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, reports USA Today. Claire Valdez and Darializa Avila Chevalier won in the 7th and 13th Congressional Districts for the U.S. House. Aber Kawas won in New York State Senate District 12. Chevalier and Valdez vowed to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And Chevalier once said, “I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me." Plus, she wants to close down prisons and abolish the police. In 2017, Kawas, a Muslim woman, told a panel that the 9/11 attacks were America's fault, the result of "capitalism and racism and White supremacy ... and Islamophobia." Democrat Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, said this on social media: "Anti-Israel. Anti-America. Anti-Western Civilization. Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?" And Republican Congressman Randy Fine of Florida sounded off as well. FINE: “It's a sad day for America. I mean, these people are bad people. We've got to be worried about the future of the country. “The Democrats are no longer the loyal opposition. In many cases, they are the enemy of the country. And I don't think it's hyperbole to say that. These are people who hate America and who seek its destruction.” Texas considers removing American Revolution from mandated history lessons The Texas State Board of Education is proposing changes to mandated school curriculum for the 5.5 million Texas students that would remove lessons about the American Revolution and would marginalize our Founding Fathers, reports Christian talk show host Todd Starnes. Conservatives are alleging that three Republicans joined Democrats to push through radical changes recommended by the Council on American Islamic Relations. Julie Pickren, a conservative Republican on the Texas Board of Education, exposed the group behind these radical changes. PICKREN: “About nine months ago, a foreign terrorist organization called the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which the FBI says is the face of the Muslim Brotherhood in America, they got involved in this process. And they got involved pretty heavily. They started showing up at all of our meetings and testifying, sending a lot of emails, making a lot of phone calls and text messages.” The Texas School Board specifically objected to the stories of Valley Forge as well as the battles of Lexington and Bunker Hill. Instead, the board wanted to provide lessons on modern-day Americans like Oprah Winfrey rather than our first president George Washington. References to the Black Robed Regiment were also removed. That regiment was comprised of a group of Protestant pastors who supported and fought for the American Revolution. Julie Pikren revealed that the three liberal Republicans who sided with the radical Muslim re-write of American history were Pam Little, Will Hickman, and Keven Ellis. Together with the five Democrats, they formed an 8-person majority voting bloc. Mrs. Pikren explained the motivation of the Muslim lobbyist group. PIKREN: “The terrorists, they don't want U.S. history taught. They don't want founding documents taught. They don't want presidents and founding fathers taught. And it's very sad that these Republicans are aligning with the mandate from a terrorist organization and joining the Democrats in passing this.” Send a polite, but firm short email to these three liberal Republicans on the Texas Board of Education to let them know your objections. pam.little@sboe.texas.gov, will.hickman@tea.texas.gov, ellisSBOE@gmail.com You can find their email addresses in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Julian the Apostate acknowledged Christ's victory over paganism And finally, 1,663 years ago, on June 26th A.D. 363, Roman Emperor Julian the Apostate died on the battlefield in modern-day Iraq. As his name suggests, he spent his life seeking to restore paganism in the Roman Empire and undo Christian reforms brought by Emperor Constantine the Great. However, in his dying words, Julian admitted, “Thou hast won, O Galilean,” referencing Jesus Christ. These words represented the victory of Christ over Caesar in the first 300 years of history since the Resurrection.

The Venezuelan government says 1,430 people are now known to have died following Wednesday's twin earthquakes, and many thousands are still missing. More international search and rescue teams have arrived in the country to help with efforts to find survivors. A 72-hour window of opportunity that rescuers believe is the best chance of finding people alive is ending.Also: the United States has launched a wave of strikes on Iran, following a drone attack on a Panama-flagged oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has responded by attacking US bases in Kuwait and Bahrain. Heavy explosions and gunfire have rocked the Pakistani city of Karachi after militants rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into the headquarters of a paramilitary unit. Ice in the Swiss Alps is melting at an unprecedented rate, as a record-breaking heatwave continues to grip Europe. Thousands take part in Hungary's LGBT Pride parade in Budapest, the first since Viktor Orbán was ousted as prime minister. Proud Vespa owners celebrate the Italian scooter's 80th birthday by riding around Rome.

Listen to the full episode Influential right-wing pundit turned celebrity conspiracy-peddler, Candace Owens, just visited Russia for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. While at “Russia's Davos” she marvelled at the cleanliness and beauty of Moscow, explained that Americans were never given any real reason why Putin invading Ukraine was bad, and deflected questions about her potential presidential run. She's not alone. MAGA has increasingly found a warm place in its heart for Vladimir Putin and other strongman dictator-types (like Viktor Orban). Owens rubbed shoulders with accused sex traffickers, the Tate Brothers, fake martial artist and aging film star, Steven Segall, Trump's head of the Commission of Fine Arts, and representatives of the Taliban, North Korea, Iran, and China. In this reimagining of Russia—the same “evil empire” of GOP patron saint, Ronald Reagan—the post-Soviet dictatorship is poo-pooed as a danger to European democracies by a growing cadre on the right. Figures like Owens, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Tim Pool, Nick Fuentes, and Marjorie Taylor Green all oppose US support for Ukraine and involvement in the war in Iran. In another interesting turn, they now also all oppose US support for Israel—which makes for some strange diagonalist bedfellows with certain figures on the left, like Hasan Piker. Julian unpacks this story. Stay tuned for claims that Carlson and Green have been less harmful to Gaza than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as well as for erstwhile left-wing pundit Ana Kasparian's come-to-Jesus moment on Owens' show.

The people's house is being rented out for a pay-per-view cage match. On his own birthday, Donald Trump is staging a UFC event at the White House — with security and overhead costs that will run American taxpayers an estimated ten to twelve million dollars, on top of a sixty million dollar production tab. This isn't a charity fundraiser. It isn't on broadcast TV. It's a corporate hype machine behind a Paramount paywall while American families wrestle with gas prices, grocery bills, and a brutal summer economy. Paul Rieckhoff — a longtime MMA fan who trained in mixed martial arts in the military — breaks down why even die-hard UFC supporters are recoiling from this one. The deeper story is corruption, and history has a warning. What ultimately toppled Viktor Orbán in Hungary wasn't ideology — it was the rot. The sense that the leader and his family were getting rich while everyone else was suffering. Sound familiar? This episode connects the UFC spectacle to the broader pattern: the president's name on the arch, on Mount Rushmore pitches, on commemorative coins, on a wing of the White House being torn down. The exponential wealth gains for Trump and his children. The foreign money flowing into family funds. This is a no-BS briefing for the Angry Middle on what happens when a head of state confuses the public trust with a personal brand — and why good Republicans, independents, and Democrats alike need to meet in the middle and call it what it is. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything. -Join Noble Mobile today and get a $100 bonus when you stay a member for 2 months! -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

June 9, 2026A Very Big Deal IndeedTrump has officially nominated Todd Blanche to become attorney general of the United States, Blanche as formerly Trump's personal attorney who led the defense team in the case of falsifying records and in the cases for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election and retaining classified documents, Blanche has flouted the law to do Trump's bidding, The nomination challenges Republican senators to ignore rank and file Republicans, and to break the law, The DOJ has ignored the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and Epstein survivors are being threatened by Trump supporters, This nomination encourages the DOJ to bless wide ranging corruption, from allowing foreign interests to invest in Trump family businesses in exchange for preferential treatment, allowing Middle East billionaires to buy access to the president, and to make billions in a crypto currency business that has generated losses for more than a million investors duped by the promise of investing in a Trump business, Reports reveal massive fraud by Hungary's Viktor Orban before he lost his bid for re-election, Trump is attempting to prevent the kind of defections in his rank that Orban suffered by forcing Republican senators to vote for Blanche's confirmation, The Blanche confirmation is a very big deal.

Hungary is undergoing a major transformation with the election of a new prime minister.After 16 years in power, Viktor Orban's Fidesz party was swept from office in a historic landslide election in April and with an equally historic turnout of almost 80 percent.The new Tisza party, led by Peter Magyar, won the largest super-majority in Hungary's post-communist history with a platform focused on anti-corruption and national renewal. They've promised major changes to Hungary's constitution, known as the Fundamental Law.So what does this election mean for Hungary and how might the new leadership reorient its relationship with America, the European Union, Russia, and China?Orban was known for his pro-family and pro-tradition domestic policies, while at the same time cultivating close ties with Russia and communist China and distancing himself from the EU.Joining us today to break all this down is Hungarian constitutional law scholar Marton Sulyok, a visiting researcher at the Georgetown Center for the Constitution.Sulyok is, notably, also the son of Hungary's current President, Tamas Sulyok.Magyar has demanded the resignation of Sulyok and other Orban allies. It remains to be seen whether they will be forced out by constitutional amendment or other means.Despite his family ties, the younger Sulyok has remained strikingly detached.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
Jonah Goldberg is infamous for muttering venomous curses against postliberalism at odd moments, such as while flossing or playing backgammon with Steve Hayes. Recognizing that to the layman this might seem rabid or antisocial, Jonah has invited two authors of a recent book on postliberalism to give some background on this puzzling phenomenon. The trio discusses postliberalism vs. anti-liberalism, integralism, Adrian Vermeule, elite capture, national conservatism, Viktor Orbán, ISI, the Heritage Foundation, subsidiarity, the wish to political violence, postliberalism's institutional future, ground-level antisemitism, right-wing Hegelianism, and Peter Thiel.

Molly McKew (writer and lecturer on Russian influence and information warfare) joins Host Ron Steslow to take stock of the war shifting beneath the surface. They begin with the state of the fighting: Putin's nuclear theater around Victory Day and the quiet vibe shift on the battlefield as Ukrainian resilience compounds. From there, they turn to Ukraine as a laboratory for the future of war: unmanned systems, data hubs, and the battlefield coordination American defense companies are scrambling to get their hands on. They also weigh the dual-use dilemma of companies like Palantir, whose tools help Ukraine target Russian commanders abroad while building surveillance architecture at home. Then, they examine Europe's slow awakening from its post-World War II illusions and the persistent reach of Russian hybrid influence. Finally, they unpack the pro-Russian talking points that are proliferating on both ends of the political spectrum and refuse to die. In Politicology+, they dig into what Viktor Orbán's defeat means for European unity on Ukraine, the differences between healthy and toxic nationalism, and how Europe is quietly rebuilding its defense planning where Article 5 can't be assumed.

The New Yorker staff writer Andrew Marantz joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss Péter Magyar, the new Prime Minister of Hungary, whom Marantz recently interviewed for the magazine. Marantz tells Foggatt about how Magyar defeated the longtime incumbent, Viktor Orbán—despite intervention by Donald Trump and his allies, and Orbán's extensive influence over the Hungarian media—and why many Hungarians, after years of democratic backsliding and alleged corruption, ultimately turned against their deeply entrenched leader. Foggatt and Marantz also explore the challenges of governing after authoritarianism without reproducing its abuses of power, and whether Hungary's political transition offers lessons for other democracies confronting illiberal movements.This week's reading: “Péter Magyar Led Hungarians out of Autocracy. Where Will He Take Them Now?,” by Andrew Marantz “Why Spain Is Standing Up to Donald Trump,” by Ishaan Tharoor “Why Trump's Spiritual Adviser Dedicated a Golden Statue to the President,” by Isaac Chotiner “The Art of the Ceasefire,” by Sudarsan Raghavan “Rumors of Instability in Moscow,” by Joshua Yaffa See the Washington Roundtable live at 92NY on June 4th.The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

Hagar Chemali (Fmr. spokesperson for the U.S. Mission to the UN) is back in studio with Host Ron Steslow for a conversation about how artificial intelligence is reshaping power, conflict, and accountability in real time. They discuss Ukraine's first successful capture of a Russian position using only unmanned ground robotic systems and aerial drones and the rapid integration of AI into warfare and national security. They also examine the growing clash between Silicon Valley and the Pentagon after Anthropic refused to allow its AI tools to be used for autonomous weapons or domestic surveillance, and the Trump administration responded by labeling the company a supply chain risk. Then, they dive into a new AI model that can discover and weaponize previously unknown software vulnerabilities and what that will mean for the government, banks and businesses. Finally, they debate the future of AI-powered mass surveillance and the looming reauthorization of FISA Section 702. In Politicology+ they dive into several big corruption stories: Viktor Orbán's election loss, suspicious oil-futures trading, and the Trump family using World Liberty Coin as their personal ATM.

Historian Timothy Snyder, author of On Tyranny and On Freedom, joins Preet Bharara to break down Viktor Orbán's election loss in Hungary and what it means for Trump, MAGA, and the future of American democracy. Snyder also explains what Hungarian politician Péter Magyar's victory reveals about beating authoritarians at the ballot box, why "democracy" alone doesn't rally voters, and why his most urgent lesson from On Tyranny — do not obey in advance — has never been more relevant. Then, Preet answers listener questions. He explains whether the president has to comply with the law requiring him to preserve official records and whether it's now legal to distill liquor at home. In the bonus for Insiders, Preet breaks down his experience working to reform one of New York City's most notorious prisons: Rikers Island.

WarRoom Battleground EP 990: UK Tory Leader Smugly Celebrates Hungarian Nationalist Icon Viktor Orbán's Election Defeat
Tommy and Ben walk through a week of epic failures for the Trump administration, from peace talks with Iran to Viktor Orbán's historic loss in Hungary.They break down everything that was wrong with the US-Iran peace talks, like both sides coming in with maximalist positions, Vice President JD Vance walking out in a huff, and the lack of American expertise at the table. Then they unpack what we know about Trump's risky plan to also blockade the Strait of Hormuz, the growing economic fallout from the war, the heated AI-powered, LEGO-themed propaganda war happening on social media, the attack on free speech in many Gulf countries, including the arrest of American journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, and the latest on Israel's bombing, invasion, and occupation of Lebanon. Then they cover some rare good news in Viktor Orbán's stunning defeat after 16 years in power, and what we can learn from Hungarian activists about fighting corrupt autocrats, and discuss what other world leaders can learn from Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's continued electoral success from punching back at Trump. At the end of the show, Ben speaks to Anand Gopal about his new book about Syria, Days of Love and Rage: A Story of Ordinary People Forging a Revolution.For Friends of the Pod, the guys answer questions about diplomatic approaches to Cuba, and just how frank diplomatic conversations get behind closed doors.Preorder Ben's book All We Say: The Battle for American Identity: A History in 15 Speeches and subscribe to his Substack here.
