On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there's a CNN poll showing 79% of Americans (83% Republicans, 79% Democrats/independents) oppose Iran's nuclear ambitions, with a slight majority favoring U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear sites (69% of Republicans agree, 27% oppose). This refutes the small group of isolationists, amplified by the media, who downplay Iran's threat and align with left-wing narratives, asserting most Americans support Trump's strong stance on national security. These isolationist voices are paper tigers who align with left-wing media to downplay Iran's threat and question intelligence on Iran's nuclear program and assassination attempts against President Trump. They are ideologically driven and out of touch with red-blooded Americans who prioritize national security and common-sense foreign policy. Also, Roger Zakheim, Director of the Ronald Reagan Institute, calls in to discuss a comprehensive Reagan Institute Summer Survey. It highlights key issues impacting U.S. security and prosperity, with preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon topping the list at 84%, reflecting widespread concern about nuclear proliferation. Americans expressed strong support for Israel striking Iran's nuclear program, even before recent events. Zakheim explained that nearly 90% of Republican respondents, aligned with Trump's base, favor action against Iran's nuclear ambitions. Later, Communist China, and their genocidal Marxist dictator Xi, is watching closely what's taking place in Iran. If we were weak or equivocating, they would take that as a signal to more aggressive seek global domination. If we were resolute and strong, they would take that into consideration -- not necessarily preventing them from eventually acting but perhaps reassessing how aggressive they would want to be. President Trump's historical leadership has sent exactly the right message to Xi. Resolve and strength. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Much can be learned, however, about both Xi Jinping and the nature of the party he leads from the memory and legacy of his father, the revolutionary Xi Zhongxun (1913-2002). The elder Xi served the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for more than seven decades. He worked at the right hand of prominent leaders Zhou Enlai and Hu Yaobang. He helped build the Communist base area that saved Mao Zedong in 1935, and he initiated the Special Economic Zones that launched China into the reform era after Mao's death. He led the Party's United Front efforts toward Tibetans, Uyghurs, and Taiwanese. And though in 1989 he initially sought to avoid violence, he ultimately supported the Party's crackdown on the Tiananmen protesters. The Party's Interests Come First is the first biography of Xi Zhongxun written in English. This biography is at once a sweeping story of the Chinese revolution and the first several decades of the People's Republic of China and a deeply personal story about making sense of one's own identity within a larger political context. Drawing on an array of new documents, interviews, diaries, and periodicals, Joseph Torigian vividly tells the life story of Xi Zhongxun, a man who spent his entire life struggling to balance his own feelings with the Party's demands. Through the eyes of Xi Jinping's father, Torigian reveals the extraordinary organizational, ideological, and coercive power of the CCP—and the terrible cost in human suffering that comes with it. 12:15-12:30 6/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author) 12:30-12:45 7/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author) 12:45-1:00 8/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author)

À la fin du XIVe siècle, la chrétienté connaît la plus grave crise de son Histoire. Alors que le pape Grégoire XI meurt soudainement, un conflit s'ouvre au sein du collège cardinalice. À l'issue d'un conclave, un nouveau pape est élu à Rome. Oui mais… Quelques mois plus tard, c'est un autre pape qui est élu, siégeant, lui, à Avignon. Cet épisode est entré dans l'Histoire sous le nom de Grand Schisme d'Occident. Que trouve-t-on aux origines de cette rupture ? Quelles conséquences a-t-elle eu sur la vie religieuse au Moyen-Age ? Comment le grand schisme s'est-il achevé ? Pour en parler, Virginie Girod reçoit l'historien Agostino Paravicini Bagliani.

And with the Belt and Road Initiative, political trust has been enhanced and trade volume has skyrocketed. What does the summit mean for China-Central Asia ties? What results can we expect this time? What do stable China-Central Asia relations mean for the world?

In this explosive edition of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold welcomes Ghost to break down Israel's surprise strike on Iran and the massive geopolitical fallout that follows. As the situation threatens to spark a regional war, or worse, Ghost lays out how the attack may have been designed to provoke Iran into retaliating, drawing the U.S. into a broader conflict. The duo explore the strategic trap being set, the implications for Trump's foreign policy positioning, and the high-stakes choices facing global players like Putin, Xi, and MBS. Ghost explains how Russian ethnic ties to Israel, gas trade deals with Iran, and shifting Arab alliances could create an unexpected realignment, possibly with Putin stepping in as the peace broker. They also discuss Netanyahu's legal troubles, MAGA's anti-war litmus test, and the narrative contrast between what Trump tells Israeli media versus the American public. With potential regime change, strategic misinformation, and the end of the unipolar world on the table, this episode captures a pivotal moment in real time.
Premier Netanyahu van Israël had het kennelijk nog niet druk genoeg met oorlog voeren. Hij kiest onverwachts nu ook voor een grote aanval op Iran. Doelwitten: nucleaire installaties, maar ook de legertop van het land is getroffen. Volgens het land om te voorkomen dat Iran een kernmacht wordt.Volgens Rob de Wijk is dit 'dag één van de oorlog tussen Israël en Iran'. Een escalatie in het Midden-Oosten, waar president Trump zich nu óók in mengt. Volgens hem moet Iran snel een deal maken, voor er 'niks meer over is' van het land. Het zorgde voor paniekerige reacties. Niet alleen op de beurs, maar ook bij de olieprijs. Die ging tot wel 13 procent omhoog. Deze aflevering brengen we de risico's in kaart. Wordt dit een Derde Wereldoorlog, waar sommige voor vrezen? En welke aandelen kan je nu beter even links laten liggen?Apple was de afgelopen weken de loser onder de Magnificent Seven. Er ging veel fout en het bedrijf kreeg ook veel kritiek van Trump zelf. Maar nu maakt Apple ineens zijn comeback! Er is niet 1, niet 2, maar 3 keer goed nieuws te melden!

OnlyFans gives women ‘the sexual attention and money of hundreds and even thousands of men'. The result is ‘a cascade of depravity' that Perry wouldn't wish on her worst enemy.In business terms, however, OnlyFans is a ‘staggering success', according to economics editor Michael Simmons. ‘Britain's sex industry brings in far more to the economy than politicians are comfortable admitting'; OnlyFans might just be Britain's most profitable tech start-up. ‘If we are going to wage a moral war on porn,' Simmons argues, ‘we should at least be honest about what we're sacrificing.'

US equity futures are slightly lower after Tuesday's gains. European markets are firmer in early trade, while Asian markets ended higher with broad gains across Greater China and Korea. US and China reached a framework to implement the Geneva consensus, though execution still requires approval from Presidents Trump and Xi. Commerce Secretary Lutnick suggested rare earth and magnet issues may be resolved through the deal, but any US export control easing depends on reciprocal Chinese moves. US-India and US-Mexico are reportedly close to interim trade deals addressing digital access and tariff relief, according to Reuters and Bloomberg. Eyes turn to Wednesday's US CPI report, where tariffs are expected to show up in higher core inflation. Elon Musk just now said he regrets his recent comments about President Trump.Companies Mentioned: Tesla, Lockheed Martin, Starbucks, General Mills
Chuck Zodda and Paul Lane discuss the latest CPI report that showed inflation rises less than expected. Is the threat of run away inflation over? US and China officials agree on plan that awaits approval from Xi and Trump. Todd Lutsky joins the show to share his insight into estate planning.

These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. There is positive reaction to the US-China trade deal framework, which is pending approval by Presidents Trump and Xi. The deal's details and benefits remain unclear, but progress is also hoped for with Japan and the EU. India reduced import duties on crude soybeans, sunflower, and palm oil to 10%, aiming to lower retail prices and boost imports. Cattle futures rose, with live cattle trading $5 higher than last week. Severe weather is forecast for parts of the Midwest. Box beef prices increased, and new highs were set for feeder cattle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Oggi è stato presentato in Senato il Rapporto sulla politica di bilancio a cura dell'Ufficio parlamentare di bilancio (Upb). Dal rapporto, tra i molti temi affrontati, emerge che la stabilizzazione del taglio del cuneo e l accorpamento delle aliquote Irpef della manovra se, da un lato, danno maggiore stabilità al sistema, dall'altro, aumentano la sensibilità dell'imposta personale sul reddito all'inflazione soprattutto per i lavoratori dipendenti. Lo osserva l'Upb che sottolinea che la nuova struttura Irpef, essendo più progressiva, produce un maggior drenaggio fiscale (fiscal drag). In un contesto in cui la dinamica retributiva è già risultata insufficiente a compensare l inflazione, l'intensificazione del prelievo fiscale derivante dall'interazione tra quest'ultima e la progressività dell'imposta rischia di erodere in misura considerevole gli incrementi nominali delle retribuzioni, con potenziali ricadute negative sui consumi e sulla domanda interna. Approfondiamo il tema con Gianni Trovati de Il Sole 24 Ore.Giovani Confindustria: Per far crescere le nuove imprese priorità a Venture capital e IACi sono energie che possono davvero spingere avanti il Paese. Dobbiamo saperle riconoscere e valorizzare, perché l impresa è il vero motore dello sviluppo. Tra i giovani c'è voglia di fare impresa, la loro propensione al rischio va rafforzata e indirizzata. E oggi abbiamo strumenti potenti, come le tecnologie digitali e l intelligenza artificiale, che possono fare la differenza. Per Maria Anghileri, presidente dei Giovani Imprenditori di Confindustria, nel nostro paese la Passione d impresa è forte, e proprio per questo ha scelto questo messaggio come titolo del 54 convegno di Rapallo che si terrà venerdì 13 e sabato 14 giugno. A Rapallo porteremo esempi di imprenditori under 40, di prima, seconda e terza generazione, anche espressione di nuove aziende o di unicorni. Casi di eccellenza, di chi è riuscito ad avere successo in settori innovativi, ma anche in quelli più tradizionali. Ne parliamo proprio con Maria Anghileri, presidente dei Giovani Imprenditori di Confindustria.Dazi, Trump conferma accordo quadro con la Cina: Arriveranno magneti e minerali rariA Londra le delegazioni ai massimi livelli di Stati Uniti e Cina hanno annunciato di aver raggiunto un intesa quadro sul ripristino della tregua che aveva visto i due Paesi sospendere la maggior parte delle rispettive tariffe. Nel frattempo in patria ha strappato alla Corte d Appello una proroga di due mesi, fino al 31 luglio, della sospensione del blocco dei dazi cosiddetti reciproci contro decine di Paesi e che erano stati bocciati come illegali in primo grado da uno speciale tribunale federale sul commercio. L'accordo è stato confermato da un intervento dello stesso presidente Usa sul social Truth, dove scrive: Il nostro accordo con la Cina è stato concluso, soggetto all approvazione definitiva del presidente Xi e di me. La Cina fornirà tutti i magneti e i minerali rari necessari. Allo stesso modo, forniremo alla Cina ciò che è stato concordato, compresi i visti agli studenti cinesi che utilizzano i nostri college e università (cosa che mi è sempre piaciuta!). Nell intesa raggiunta a Londra i dazi resteranno allo stesso livello di quanto stabilito nelle settimane scorse a Ginevra, quando gli Usa si sono impegnati a ridurre le tariffe sul made in China al 30% e la Cina al 10%. Approfondiamo il tema con Giuliano Noci, Professore ordinario in Ingegneria Economico-Gestionale, insegna Strategia & Marketing presso il Politecnico di Milano.Confcommercio, quest'anno al settore mancano 260mila lavoratoriNel 2025 i settori del commercio, della ristorazione e dell'alloggio non riusciranno a trovare circa 260mila lavoratori. È quanto stima l'Ufficio studi di Confcommercio, come presentato in occasione dell'assemblea dell'associazione, rilevando che il dato è in crescita rispetto al 2024 (+4%) e rappresenta una emergenza perché rischia di frenare la crescita economica dei settori considerati e del prodotto lordo dell intero sistema economico italiano. Tra le figure professionali più difficili da reperire in questi settori: commessi professionali, macellai, gastronomi, camerieri di sala, barman, cuochi/pizzaioli, gelatai, camerieri, addetti alla pulizia e al riassetto delle camere. Ne parliamo con Mariano Bella, direttore Ufficio studi Confcommercio.
On today's show Andrew and Bill begin with a call between President Trump and Xi, two days of meetings between the U.S. and China in London, and an apparent effort from both sides to de-escalate. Topics include: Retracing steps of the past few weeks, clarity for the U.S. and others on the PRC's leverage over rare earths, the possibility of the U.S. easing tech export controls, and the lack of trust on both sides in the wake of the past few months. From there: The U.S. has concerns about a Chinese embassy in the UK, the New York Times surfaces a purported FSB document outlining various counterespionage anxieties related to the PRC, and Xi's daughter joins a dinner with Lukashenko. At the end: People's Daily publishes an interview with Ren Zhengfei, Xi continues his attempts to curb excess among party members, and Victor Wembanyama visits a Shaolin Monastery.
Jerome Powell heeft nog ruim elf maanden te gaan als Fed-voorzitter. Maar die maanden duren Donald Trump net wat te lang. Daar weet Trump wel raad mee. Als hij nu al een opvolger aanwijst, dan heeft hij het alsnog praktisch voor het zeggen. Want zo richt hij een soort 'schaduw-Fed' op, waar de markten meer aandacht aan zullen hechten dan aan Powell. Maar zet Trump 'zijn' economie en 'zijn' dollar op het spel als hij zijn eigen pion neerzet bij de Federal Reserve? Met die vraag mogen beleggers wereldwijd gaan worstelen de komende tijd. Verder zegt de Amerikaanse president een deal te hebben bereikt met China. Nou ja: een tussendeal. Een 'raamwerk' dat de handelsoorlog verder pauzeert voordat een andere deal de oorlog écht beëindigt. En er zit nog een haakje aan, want zowel Trump zelf als Xi Jinping van China moeten er nog een handtekening onder zetten. Autoproducenten in de VS en Europa staan te juichen, want de zeldzame aardmetalen stromen China weer uit. Chinese studenten mogen in ruil daarvoor verder studeren in de VS. Ook Elon Musk maakt een deal, maar dan met zijn eigen geweten. Hij biedt excuses aan voor het gebekvecht met Donald Trump van vorige week. Teslabeleggers zijn uitzinnig: het aandeel staat alweer hoger dan het voor de ruzie stond. Misschien is de nieuwe proef met robotaxi's die op 22 juni van start gaat wel de kers op hun taart. Tot slot draait Jensen Huang van Nvidia even 180 graden bij. In januari zei hij nog dat kwantumcomputers pas over 20 jaar nuttig zouden worden, waarna kwantum-aandelen zoals Rigetti en IonQ van de trap vielen. Rigetti verloor zelfs 70 procent van zijn waarde. Maar vandaag zei Huang opeens dat de kwantumrevolutie een keerpunt heeft bereikt en dat de kwantumtoekomst binnen handbereik ligt. We bespreken wat er dan is veranderd in de tussentijd.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Send us a textThis week's episode is full of chaos, confusion, and classic Spurs energy. We kick things off with the shocker: Ange Postecoglou sacked by Tottenham—yes, right after winning their first trophy in forever. If that's not the most Spurs thing ever, we don't know what is.Back in MLS, St. Louis City fell 1-2 to Portland. The team looked solid for about 65 minutes, but once again, no one stepped up when it mattered. Someone's gotta take the reins before this season slips away.Then we dive into the mess that was USMNT's 1-2 loss to Turkey. The lineup? Embarrassing. The performance? Worse. We're 366 days from the World Cup, and we still don't know our best XI. Players sitting out, no chemistry, and no urgency—what's going on?We wrap with the Nations League Final, where Portugal edged Spain on penalties after a 2-2 draw. The big takeaway? The stars showed up. It's refreshing to see top players actually care about representing their countries—and it made for a thrilling final.Tune in for all the hot takes, rants, and laughs as we break down another wild week in the world of football!Support the show
Este es el episodio 200 del podcast, y para celebrarlo vamos a sumergirnos en el convulso final del siglo XI para hablar de la primera reina europea por derecho propio, Urraca I de León. Hija de Alfonso VI, estuvo casada con Raimundo de Borgoña y tuvo dos hijos con él, entre ellos Alfonso VII. Después tuvo otro matrimonio y dos hijos ilegítimos con un noble. Su vida fue azarosa, ya que le tocó vivir una época muy agitada en la Península Ibérica. Hablamos hoy de ella, de sus dos maridos, de su ingrato hijo y del resto de sus vástagos.

Het was de kortste presentatie sinds de aankondiging van de iPhone. De eerste iPhone wel te verstaan. In ongeveer anderhalf uur vloog topman Tim Cook (op de jaarlijkse World Wide Developer Conference) met z'n collega's door de nieuwste bedenksels van Apple heen. En daaruit bleek dat Apple het nog steeds NIET voor elkaar krijgt om hun eigen AI te maken. Het hoogtepunt was een nieuw uiterlijk voor alle Apple-systemen. Maar ook dat ging niet helemaal goed. Want bij de video die Apple erover op YouTube publiceerde stond het YouTube logo over de G en de L van Liquid Glass heen. Waardoor er Liquid Ass stond.Apple werd ineens een grap. Daar hebben we het deze aflevering over. Hoe kon het zo ver komen en hoe komt Apple hieruit? En kan het nog een rol van betekenis spelen op het gebied van AI?Misschien moeten we even bellen met Mark Zuckerberg. Zijn Meta loopt ook hopeloos achter, maar hij heeft de oplossing gevonden! Hij speelt recruiter en is persoonlijk in gesprek met nerds.Verder hebben we het ook over de onderhandelingen tussen de Amerikanen en Chinezen, in Londen. De vorige gesprekken (in Geneve) bevielen de kemphanen zo goed, dat ze ze voortzetten in een ander land. We kijken of het einde van de handelsoorlog nu eindelijk nabij is. De termijn van Klaas Knot komt ook steeds dichterbij. Nog maar drie weken en dan is 'ie baas van De Nederlandsche Bank af. Maar er is nog steeds géén opvolger. En dat heeft gevolgen voor het rentebeleid van de ECB.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Much can be learned, however, about both Xi Jinping and the nature of the party he leads from the memory and legacy of his father, the revolutionary Xi Zhongxun (1913-2002). The elder Xi served the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for more than seven decades. He worked at the right hand of prominent leaders Zhou Enlai and Hu Yaobang. He helped build the Communist base area that saved Mao Zedong in 1935, and he initiated the Special Economic Zones that launched China into the reform era after Mao's death. He led the Party's United Front efforts toward Tibetans, Uyghurs, and Taiwanese. And though in 1989 he initially sought to avoid violence, he ultimately supported the Party's crackdown on the Tiananmen protesters. The Party's Interests Come First is the first biography of Xi Zhongxun written in English. This biography is at once a sweeping story of the Chinese revolution and the first several decades of the People's Republic of China and a deeply personal story about making sense of one's own identity within a larger political context. Drawing on an array of new documents, interviews, diaries, and periodicals, Joseph Torigian vividly tells the life story of Xi Zhongxun, a man who spent his entire life struggling to balance his own feelings with the Party's demands. Through the eyes of Xi Jinping's father, Torigian reveals the extraordinary organizational, ideological, and coercive power of the CCP--and the terrible cost in human suffering that comes with it. 11:15-11:30 2/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author) 11:30-11:45 3/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author) 11:45-12:00 4/8 The Party's Interests Come First: The Life of Xi Zhongxun, Father of Xi Jinping Hardcover – 3 June 2025 by Joseph Torigian (Author) FOURTH HOUR 12:00-12:15 Lancaster Report: Slower shopping.

Today's Headlines: The Trump-Musk fallout escalated from a policy spat to full-blown political chaos in under 12 hours—starting with Trump slamming Musk over his opposition to the GOP budget bill, and spiraling into Musk accusing Trump of electoral dependence, Trump threatening SpaceX contracts, and Musk suggesting Trump appears in Epstein files. Bannon reportedly wants Trump to seize SpaceX and deport Musk. Meanwhile, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee failed to subpoena Musk over AI policy due to GOP opposition. Abroad, German Chancellor Merz met with Trump, urging stronger action on Ukraine, only to be met with bizarre WWII commentary and apathy.

The tilt of Earth's axis, currently about 23.5 degrees, undergoes a slow variation known as obliquity over a cycle of approximately 41,000 years. This tilt oscillates between roughly 22.1 and 24.5 degrees, driven by gravitational interactions with other planets, primarily Jupiter and Saturn. Right now, we're in a phase where the tilt is gradually decreasing, moving toward the lower end of that range over thousands of years. There's no evidence of sudden or anomalous tilting outside these cycles.

The lovelorn TACO trader has been hanging by the phone at 2am hoping China's Xi will call him to make a tariff deal. But that call is not coming without America paying a very high price— because world leaders know that Trump is a feckless, desperate negotiator. Meanwhile, Republicans are blowing off Elon's take-down of the reconciliation bill and prepping to turn themselves into roadkill in the midterms.
