It's been a week that's seen a remarkable political upset in New York, where 34-year-old Zohran Mamdani became the city's youngest mayor in 130 years – and its first Muslim and immigrant leader in generations. The Democratic Socialist's pledge to make New York more affordable galvanised young voters, though his call to tax the rich unsettled the party establishment. In Ukraine, fierce fighting continues for control of Pokrovsk, the fortress city key to Donetsk's supply lines, as Russia claims to have encircled it and President Zelensky vows defiance on the front line. In Mexico, President Claudia Sheinbaum – after being groped by a man in public – has vowed to criminalise street harassment nationwide, calling it an attack on all women. And for Elon Musk, it's been a record-breaking week, as Tesla shareholders approved what could become the biggest executive pay deal in history – worth up to a trillion dollars if he meets his ambitious targets.

Oekraïne gaat wapens exporteren: 'Het slagveld is hun testveld'

Oekraïne staat op het punt opnieuw wapens te gaan exporteren. Sinds het begin van de Russische invasie in 2022 lag de export van militair materieel stil, maar president Zelensky wil dat nu veranderen. Volgens defensiespecialist Peter Wijninga (HCSS) en Europa-verslaggever Geert Jan Hahn beschikt Oekraïne inmiddels over zoveel productiecapaciteit, vooral in drones, dat het overschotten kan verkopen aan bondgenoten. 'Oekraïne heeft tussen de 200 en 500 dronefabrieken,' zegt Wijninga. 'Die drones worden continu doorontwikkeld met de gevechtservaring aan het front. Het zijn daardoor misschien wel de beste ter wereld.' Lees ook | Oekraïne opent kantoren voor wapenexport in Berlijn en Kopenhagen Op de NAVO-conferentie in Boekarest maakte de Oekraïense onderminister van Defensie bekend dat er inmiddels 15 miljoen FPV-drones zijn geproduceerd zonder Chinese onderdelen. Zelensky wil een deel daarvan gaan exporteren. Ook Nederland speelt een rol via de internationale dronecoalitie, waarin kennis en geld worden uitgewisseld met Oekraïense bedrijven. Toch kleven er risico’s aan handel met een land in oorlog. Corruptie blijft een probleem, erkent Hahn: 'Daarom investeert Nederland direct in Oekraïense bedrijven, zonder tussenpersonen, en laten we auditors controleren of alles op orde is.' Wijninga wijst daarnaast op de afhankelijkheid van producenten in oorlogsgebied. Luister ook | Oekraïense drone-industrie: innovatief maar corruptie ligt op de loer Zijn de Amerikaanse importheffingen legaal? Het Amerikaanse Hooggerechtshof boog zich deze week over de wettigheid van de importheffingen van Donald Trump. Trump beroept zich op een noodwet, de International Emergency Economic Powers Act, maar tijdens de hoorzitting bleek dat zelfs conservatieve rechters moeite hebben met zijn redenering. 'Het woord dat overal terugkwam was: sceptisch,' zegt Jan Postma, correspondent in Washington. 'Zelfs de door Trump benoemde rechters vroegen zich af of de president niet te ver gaat.' Lees ook | Scepsis overheerst bij rechters Hooggerechtshof over importheffingen Volgens Kenneth Manusama, Amerikadeskundige en expert op het gebied van Amerikaans staatsrecht, staat er meer op het spel dan alleen handelspolitiek: 'Als het hof Trump gelijk geeft, verliest het Congres feitelijk zijn macht over belastingen. Dat zou de trias politica in Amerika op zijn kop zetten.' De rechters worstelen met de vraag hoeveel ruimte een president mag nemen bij het heffen van importbelastingen onder het mom van een ‘noodtoestand’. Een uitspraak wordt binnen enkele maanden verwacht. Een negatieve uitspraak zou niet alleen Trumps machtspositie, maar ook de wereldhandel opschudden. Postma: 'Als de heffingen onrechtmatig blijken, opent dat een beerput van terugbetalingen en juridische claims.'See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textThis episode was originally released as a Patreon only episode in March 2025 as a reaction to the first meeting in the Oval Office between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky.Summary: Throughout history, political thinkers have sought to understand the nature of power, war, and human ambition. The question I ask, having been exposed to the writings of three important works of political philosophy, is, but do their insights align with biblical wisdom?In this special bonus episode, I examine three foundational works of political thought—Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War, Carl von Clausewitz's On War, and Hans Morgenthau's Politics Among Nations. By exploring these texts, I believe we uncover the patterns that have shaped human history and I compare them to the teachings of Scripture, asking what they reveal about the fallen nature of humanity and God's vision for justice, peace, and righteous leadership.Join us as we navigate these works, wrestle with their implications, and seek to apply biblical truth to our understanding of politics and power.Episode NotesThucydides' History of the Peloponnesian WarWritten in the 5th century BC, Thucydides' work is one of the first analytical histories, focusing on power, human nature, and realpolitik.Key themes: war, empire, morality of power, and the nature of justice in international relations.The Melian Dialogue exemplifies political realism: “The strong do what they can, and the weak suffer what they must.”Christian Perspective: Thucydides' bleak view contrasts with biblical teachings on justice, mercy, and the dignity of all people (Micah 6:8, Matthew 5).Carl von Clausewitz's On WarWritten in the early 19th century, this work explores the philosophy of war, strategy, and the nature of conflict.Key ideas: war as an extension of politics, the unpredictability of war (fog of war), and the role of passion, policy, and uncertainty.Christian Perspective: Clausewitz's pragmatic approach often ignores moral constraints. While war is a reality of a fallen world, Christian teachings call for peacemaking (Matthew 5:9) and emphasize justice over mere strategic success.Hans Morgenthau's Politics Among NationsA foundational text in international relations (1948), advocating political realism—the idea that international politics is driven by power and self-interest.Key themes: the balance of power, national interest, and the anarchic nature of the international system.Christian Perspective: While Morgenthau correctly diagnoses human self-interest, he neglects the possibility of moral progress, redemption, and God's call for justice and peace (Romans 12:18, Isaiah 2:4).ConclusionThese three thinkers provide essential insights into the realities of political history and international relations. Yet, their perspectives sometimes contrast sharply with Christian teachings on justice, mercy, and the ultimate hope for peace in God's kingdom.

2025-11-03 | Silicon Wafers 047 | DAILY UPDATES | Putin wants everyone to think he's a tough nut – uncrackable in fact. And the Oreshnik missile system is an extension of his threat and bluster, one might even say symbolic of his authority and virility. But the Oreshnik appears to have been cracked by Ukraine. Let's explore this! “Oreshnik” (the hazel nut), is one of the Kremlin's latest so-called wonder weapons. A hypersonic, nuclear-capable, intermediate-range ballistic missile that Vladimir Putin has hyped as “unstoppable.” But much to his annoyance, OI presume, Ukraine says its security and intelligence services—the SBU, HUR, and foreign intelligence — located it, reached it, and destroyed it deep inside Russia. Not on the frontline or while being transported. This apparently happened at the Kapustin Yar missile range in Astrakhan Oblast. And they claim to have achieved this months ago — quietly, surreptitiously — then revealed it at a Kyiv briefing late last week. (The Kyiv Independent)It raises so many questions. How they did it. Why operational silence with regards to the achievement, and of course Russia has chosen silence, for perhaps more obvious reasons. ----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Halloween takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Buck's Gentle Nudge Buck Sexton encourages voter turnout ahead of the upcoming off-year elections, spotlighting key races in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City. He emphasizes the importance of civic engagement and early voting, particularly in tight contests like the New Jersey gubernatorial race and the NYC mayoral and city council elections. A major focus of the hour is the ongoing government shutdown, which Buck attributes to Democratic leadership, including Vice President Kamala Harris, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. He critiques their handling of negotiations and highlights the impact on federal workers, especially air traffic controllers and TSA agents, citing safety concerns and economic stress. Buck argues that Republicans are pushing for a clean continuing resolution to reopen the government, while Democrats are obstructing progress for political leverage. Healthcare policy also comes under scrutiny, with Buck condemning the legacy of Obamacare and current Democratic efforts to expand subsidies and entitlements. He frames these moves as part of a broader welfare state agenda that burdens taxpayers and prioritizes illegal immigrants, particularly in sanctuary cities like New York. Why Elections Matter Guest Karol Markowicz joins to offer insights on NYC politics and cultural shifts, especially from the perspective of Russian Jewish communities in Brooklyn. She discusses the ideological divide between conservative immigrant populations and progressive enclaves like Park Slope and the Upper West Side. The conversation touches on Jewish voter trends, noting a significant shift away from Democratic candidates in recent elections. Kamala, Are You Serious? Clay’s travel nightmare amid widespread airport chaos caused by the ongoing government shutdown, highlighting how air traffic controller shortages and TSA delays are creating nationwide disruptions. This segues into a sharp critique of Democratic leadership, with Buck questioning whether mounting pressure from unions and airline executives will force Democrats to end the standoff. The conversation then shifts to Kamala Harris’s controversial book tour and her attempts to defend the Biden administration’s handling of President Biden’s cognitive decline. Buck dismantles Harris’s argument that Biden was fit to govern but not to campaign, calling it “absurd” and pointing out the administration’s deception about Biden’s mental state. Harris’s excuses for her crushing 2024 election loss to Donald Trump—including claims of “misinformation,” “disinformation,” and the “Elon Musk factor”—are dissected in detail. Buck argues that Harris’s failure reflects a broader rejection of identity politics and DEI-driven promotions, emphasizing that voters now demand competence over optics. Do You Believe? Buck welcomes Miranda Devine, host of Pod Force One, for an in-depth discussion on her recent interview with Vice President JD Vance.

Convidado: Fabrício Vitorino, jornalista, mestre em cultura russa pela USP e doutorando em Relações Internacionais pela UFSC. No tabuleiro da geopolítica, novos movimentos podem comprometer os objetivos de Vladimir Putin. Na última semana, depois que Donald Trump cancelou um encontro com o presidente russo, os EUA sancionaram as duas maiores companhias de petróleo do país. Na sequência, a União Europeia anunciou nova rodada de sanções contra a Rússia, inclusive com ameaça de confiscar cerca de 140 bilhões de euros para indenizar a Ucrânia. Já no front de guerra, as ofensivas de Moscou seguem com mais força que antes. Foi o que viu in loco o jornalista e especialista em cultura russa Fabrício Vitorino. Convidado de Natuza Nery neste episódio, Fabrício circulou por grande parte do território ucraniano em outubro. Ele relata as horas de tensão que viveu durante o maior bombardeio sofrido por Lviv, cidade que fica no oeste da Ucrânia — uma região que sequer é reivindicada por Moscou. Fabrício conta também as formas de resistência expressadas pela população de Odessa, no sul, onde os ataques russos já se tornaram rotina. Por fim, ele analisa os possíveis próximos passos de Trump, Putin e Zelensky na busca por um acordo de cessar-fogo.

Rebecca Grant and Gordon Chang discuss how Russia is highly anxious about the possible deployment of US Tomahawk land-attack missiles to Ukraine. Tomahawks, with a 1,600-mile range, can fly low and strike over 60 Russian air bases and critical energy targets. Experts say the weapon presents an "almost unsolvable air defense problem" for Russia because Putin lacks sufficient air defense systems, like the S-400, to protect such a wide area. 1130-1145 US Pressure on Venezuela/Colombia Narco-States Splits Latin American Left.

However, 97% of Ukrainian drone producers source primary components, including rare earths for engines and chips, from China. Despite China imposing export controls on finished drones, smaller components are circumvented and supplied to both Ukraine and Russia. Finding alternative, self-reliant supply chains, potentially through US allies like Taiwan, is crucial for Kyiv. 1215-1230 China's Economic Woes and Rare Earth Export Controls Raise Global Alarms. Elaine Dezenski discusses how the US Treasury Secretary remarked that China's worrying economic fundamentals—including high debt and youth unemployment—are leading Beijing to use tactics like rare earth export controls to undermine the global economy. China acts as a "non-market player" using subsidies and forced labor, which corrodes the free market.

Jonathan Sayeh and Bill Roggio discuss how Iran's Supreme Leader publicly rejected Trump's appeals for negotiations, a move primarily aimed at boosting domestic morale following regional setbacks. However, a top nuclear scientist overtly claimed Iran has the capacity to build a nuclear bomb, suggesting weaponization ambitions are becoming less covert. Tehran views its regional position as a lose-lose scenario but uses the Gaza ceasefire as a critical breathing room opportunity to rearm its weakened proxies. 1245-100 AM Hamas Cracks Down on Rival Clans in Gaza Post-Ceasefire. Ahmad Sharawi and Bill Roggio discuss how following the Gaza ceasefire, Hamas cracked down on rival clans and militias, like the Dughmush clan, to reassert its dominance. Hamas labeled the Dughmush clan, known for smuggling and past criminal activity, as Israeli collaborators. Anti-Hamas groups, including former PA security forces, are vastly outnumbered and less capable than Hamas, which remains the strongest faction in Gaza and uses these executions to deter future competition.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 26: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:00) SPECIAL COMMENT: Can we? Involuntarily? Any way you can think of? I don’t know the answer, I suspect not, not even after the video he put out in which he proudly covers America in, uh, crap. A video he thought was some kind of flex, as opposed to reality, that it is the confirmation of everything that was being protested at No Kings, everything that defines Trump as president, as leader, as human being – sort of: a crapshow with a crown and he has to wear an oxygen mask and the MAGAs are standing below just hoping to catch some of it maybe with their mouths! Trump crapping on America – the only thing he’s good at – and in the limited coverage it gets in the media they sanitize it for your protection, literally not referencing WHAT it was flying in Trump’s Freudian video, his confession, the climax of his life. After that, let me say it again: Trump is insane and unchecked he will kill us all because nothing matters to him BUT him. He’s insane, he’s psychopathic, he’s murderous, he’s vile, he’s deranged, he’s damaged, he’s dysfunctional, he’s – on top of everything else there he is discharging himself all over New York and No Kings and America and my final thought was, if that AI video were real, and he really got rid of all that crap: what WHAT would he be left to THINK with? THAT PLUS the amazing under-coverage of the largest American political protest since 1970, and Trump him whoring and stalling for Putin again in Ukraine, and Trump’s Eternal Middle East Peace falling apart, and Curtis Sliwa stuffing Andrew Cuomo in a locker - it was glorious. B-BLOCK (30:00) ANOTHER SPECIAL COMMENT: You saw ESPN's Stephen A. Smith (who isn't trying to run for president but is humiliating himself, doing everything he can to make other people try to convince him to) appearing on the farcical News Nation's farcical "town hall" on the government shutdown? And a guy in the audience gets up and says he's an air traffic controller but because of 'them' he now has to deliver food to make ends meet? And Smith starts ranting and in solidarity with the people storms off the show because...I dunno why? Something about this story (in fact a couple things) just don't add up. Let me give you some hints. C-BLOCK (48:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: "Meet Birdey Doggett" is not his best known story. It is one of his best to hear read aloud. On a day when I'm under the weather and need a little cheering up myself - enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

3. US Intelligence Successes vs. Policy Failures Leading to the 2022 Invasion. Serhii Plokhy (Professor of Ukrainian History at Harvard University) details the period leading to the February 2022 invasion, where Russia positioned troops along the border, while the Biden administration publicly ruled out sending US troops or weapons to Ukraine. This policy is identified as a "colossal misjudgment" of Putin. Although US intelligence successfully reported Kremlin war plans almost in real time, hoping to deter Putin, little was done to militarily strengthen Ukraine. The prevailing Western assessment—that Kyiv would fall quickly and Ukraine would be overrun within a week—was based on a massive miscalculation that underestimated the Ukrainian military and people's resolve. Vladimir Putin framed the war using historical claims, stating that Russians and Ukrainians are "one people." This belief, rooted in 19th-century Russian imperial ideas, led to the flawed expectation that 150,000 to 200,000 troops would be sufficient and that Ukrainians would welcome them. Putin's central aim, consistent since the 2014 war, remains stopping Ukraine's Western drift and forcing it into the Russian-controlled Eurasian Union. The countdown to the current war began after President Zelensky, who was an unlikely war leader elected in 2019, refused to implement the Minsk agreements according to Putin's destabilizing agenda during their meeting in Paris in December 2019.

Today's Headlines: About 7 million Americans joined No Kings marches across all 50 states — no arrests, no chaos — but Trump responded with an AI video of himself flying over protesters and pooping on them. He also commuted George Santos's sentence after 84 days, freeing him straight back to society. Meanwhile, the 19-day government shutdown drags on, freezing courts and doubling insurance premiums as the fight over Obamacare subsidies expires. ICE amps up surveillance with new spyware contracts to track faces and phones without warrants — and even ticketing legal residents for not carrying papers. ProPublica found 170+ U.S. citizens detained by ICE, some pregnant, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem just bought $172M in private jets “for safety.” Elsewhere, five top universities rejected Trump's shady funding deal, the White House partnered with EMD Serono for IVF drugs at an 84% discount, and California's CalRx will sell insulin for $11 a pen. In Florida, whooping cough cases jumped 81% after vaccination rates collapsed. Overseas, Trump's meeting with Zelensky fell apart, the Gaza ceasefire collapsed, and Trump's strike on a Venezuelan boat led Colombia to accuse the U.S. of murder. Prince Andrew gave up his royal titles amid new Epstein revelations — and thieves stole the French crown jewels in four minutes flat.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday/Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Trump is Feelin' It President Donald Trump’s high-stakes diplomacy, including his call with Vladimir Putin and efforts to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine. They analyze Trump’s strategy to pressure Russia by potentially supplying Ukraine with long-range weapons capable of striking inside Russian territory, and the economic leverage involving oil and gas markets. The conversation expands to Trump’s simultaneous trade showdown with China, highlighting looming 100% tariffs on Chinese goods and the global battle over rare earth minerals critical to modern technology. The hosts explore whether Trump can realistically achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine, the risks of escalation—including nuclear threats—and the role of frozen Russian assets in Europe as a potential game-changer. They also touch on U.S. defense production challenges, noting America’s limited capacity to ramp up weapons manufacturing compared to Russia’s reserves, and how winter conditions in Ukraine could stall battlefield advances and open a window for negotiations. Clean Up on Isle Amanpour A sharp critique of CNN’s Christiane Amanpour after her controversial claim that Israeli hostages were “treated better than the average Gazan.” Clay and Buck play the original clip and her subsequent apology, arguing that her first statement reveals the media’s bias toward Hamas narratives. They dismantle myths of “genocide” and “starvation” in Gaza, underscore Hamas’s use of civilians as human shields, and stress the moral clarity of Israel’s position in the conflict. The conversation pivots to major breaking news: President Donald Trump’s tweet summarizing his lengthy call with Vladimir Putin. Trump described the exchange as “very productive,” noting Putin congratulated him on Middle East peace efforts and agreed to high-level talks aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war. Clay and Buck analyze the geopolitical stakes, including Trump’s upcoming Oval Office meeting with President Zelensky, Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s role in negotiations, and Hungary as a potential summit location. Mamdani is Wrong About Everything New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and his Fox News interview with Martha MacCallum. Clay and Buck critique Mamdani’s evasive answers on whether Hamas should disarm, comparing his rhetorical style to Abigail Spanberger’s non-answers. They warn that Mamdani’s progressive proposals—such as rent freezes and city-run grocery stores—reflect economic illiteracy that worsens housing affordability and cost-of-living crises. The hosts draw parallels to California’s regulatory failures and Canada’s housing costs, arguing government overreach drives prices higher. Democrats Have Become a Slur President Donald Trump’s multi-hour call with Vladimir Putin, which Trump says will lead to high-level advisor meetings and a future summit in Budapest aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war. Clay and Buck examine Trump’s diplomatic momentum following the Gaza peace deal and discuss whether his approach could reshape global negotiations. The conversation shifts to domestic politics, spotlighting New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and his Fox News interview with Martha MacCallum. Mamdani refused to credit Trump for the Gaza peace agreement, calling it “too early,” and offered vague answers on Hamas disarmament. Clay and Buck critique Mamdani’s progressive agenda—tax hikes, rent freezes, and city-run grocery stores—arguing these policies would harm New York’s economy and worsen affordability. They also highlight Mamdani’s recent apology to police for past “defund” rhetoric, framing it as political damage control.
