Can China Sway Australia?

In this episode of Pekingology, CSIS Senior Fellow Henrietta Levin is joined by Charlie Edel, Senior Adviser and Australia Chair at CSIS. Charlie unpacks China’s strategy towards Australia, an influential, democratic middle power that maintains strong economic ties to China and a security alliance with the United States. How has Beijing used economic coercion and inducements to try and sway Australian policy? Why has Australian public opinion turned sharply against China? And why has Australia come to see Chinese actions in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait – thousands of miles from the Australian coast – as a threat to Australia’s national security?

Trump and the Epstein Files: The Men Who Will Never Be Prosecuted

The latest Epstein files drop has exposed embarrassing details about powerful figures like Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and others—yet no prosecutions in sight. On this explosive episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara breaks down her appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored discussing the massive dump of Epstein documents—including emails, images, and chilling footage—revealing embarrassing details about high-profile figures like Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Richard Branson, and others. The panel dissects why prosecutions remain elusive despite widespread outrage, the FBI's handling of redactions and victim names, potential cover-ups, geopolitical blackmail angles involving Mossad and foreign powers, and the broader implications of Epstein's unexplained wealth and connections. Tara pushes back on assumptions, emphasizes following the money and survivor testimonies, and challenges inconsistencies in public statements from powerful men.

The Race to Control Global Tech: Craig Singleton

Michael speaks with Craig Singleton, China Program Senior Director and Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, about the new frontiers of the US-China tech competition. Craig explains China's willingness to weaponize its dominance in rare earth magnets and how that leverage has left US assembly lines vulnerable. He also explores the high-stakes debate over semiconductor export controls, including a controversial profit-sharing deal for NVIDIA's H20 chips with the US government. Finally, Craig discusses the Chinese "five lever playbook" used to dominate critical sectors like polysilicon, LIDAR, and display technologies, warning of "strategic kill switches" in US infrastructure and the emerging national security threat of biotech.

How Inequality Distorts the Law - ft. Katharina Pistor

If we want to understand why capitalism feels broken, do we need to stop looking at the economy and start looking at the legal code that underpins it? In our system, capital is often described as money, machinery, or raw materials. But Columbia Law School professor Katharina Pistor argues that capital is actually a legal invention. An asset, whether it's a plot of land, an idea, or a promise of future pay, only becomes capital when it is given the right legal coding. Pistor suggests that lawyers are the true coders of capitalism. They use the law to "enclose" assets, from land to user data, giving owners the power to exclude others and monetize that value. She argues for injecting principles of "fairness and reciprocity" back into private law, ensuring that contracts aren't just tools for the powerful to extract value from the weak. Luigi Zingales suggests that large corporations have become so powerful we may need a new branch of "quasi-public law" to govern the asymmetry between an individual consumer and a corporate giant. This episode explores the deep, often invisible architecture of our economic system and asks whether we can ever truly tame corporate power without rewriting the rules of the game.

Cross-borders and floor crossers | Scott Aitchison

A new POLITICO/Public First poll finds what one pollster calls “a sort of unrequited hatred” shaping the Canada-U.S. relationship, with Canadians increasingly skeptical of Washington even as Americans maintain a warmer view of their northern neighbor. Meanwhile in Ottawa, another Conservative floor crosser shifts the balance in the House and revives fresh election speculation around Mark Carney’s minority government. Plus, Conservative MP Scott Aitchison joins from Milan to talk Olympic gold, housing lessons from Italy and the temperature on Parliament Hill. Nick Taylor-Vaisey is POLITICO’s Ottawa bureau chief and co-author of POLITICO’s Canada Playbook newsletter Mickey Djuric is a reporter and co-author of POLITICO’s Canada Playbook newsletter ⁠Alex Keeney⁠ is Playbook Canada's executive producer ⁠Steve Bone⁠ composed the music used in Playbook Canada.

Водка. Тайное оружие власти в России

Читайте также пост про водку "Столичная" в телеграме, где я рассказываю, что происходит в экономике России и мира: https://t.me/prostoecon/666 А еще на этой неделе провожу публичные лекции в Казани и Нижнем Новгороде. Буду рад вас видеть! Все источники и текстовая версия ролика: 1. Бусти: https://boosty.to/ez_educate/posts/b8d145ff-fa22-4fc3-92ee-6f23f0c4bbbb 2. Спонср: https://sponsr.ru/prostoecon/138286/Vodka_Tainoe_orujie_vlasti_v_Rossii/ Я долго думал, делать этот ролик или нет, но когда прочитал книгу "Новейшая история России в 14 бутылках водки", понял, что это бриллиант, надо писать сценарий. Видео - не про водку как напиток, а про то, как она стала жидким долларом девяностых, и как через нее была создана вертикаль власти в России нулевых. В одном стакане сценарии смешались независимость Татарстана, футбольный клуб "Алания", водка "Жириновский" и напитки из Черноголовки. Обещаю, что вы кайфанете очень сильно. P.S. Водку как напиток осуждаю. Алкоголь - зло. Автор канала - Николай Мячин, кандидат экономических наук, доцент. Канал Простая экономика изначально был создан для студентов, чтобы объяснять им сложные экономические вопросы простым и понятным языком на наглядных примерах. Сегодня Простая экономика - это команда, которая выпускает научно-популярные видео на актуальные экономические темы. Подписывайся – здесь экономика становится по-настоящему интересной.

Is the Trump Administration's 'Donroe' Doctrine Transforming Relations with Latin America?

Following Washington's emphasis on the Western Hemisphere in its 2025 National Security Strategy, this episode examines Cuba, Venezuela and the intensifying US-China competition in Latin America. In this episode, Neil Melvin is joined by Dr Brian Fonseca, Director of the Jack D. Gordon Institute for Public Policy at Florida International University, and Dr Carlos Solar, Senior Research Fellow for Latin American Security at RUSI, to assess how the Trump administration's 'America First' strategy is reshaping security and geopolitics across the Americas, and what the shift means for regional stability and US global priorities. This discussion explores: · The elevation of the Western Hemisphere to the top tier of US national security priorities. · Cuba's re-emergence as a strategic concern, including energy pressure, migration controls and intelligence considerations. · Venezuela's uncertain transition following US intervention and the risks of proxy competition. · The expansion of bilateral security agreements and US military deployments in the Caribbean basin. · The implications of this hemispheric focus for US alliances and global commitments. · Whether Latin America is becoming an arena for US-China strategic rivalry.

The art of military diplomacy

When we think of diplomacy, we often picture civilian politics, embassies, and international relations, yet it is just as essential within the military sphere. In this new episode, we sit down with General Seán Clancy, Chair of the EU Military Committee, to explore how modern military leadership operates at the intersection of defence and diplomacy. From the very beginning of a military career, leaders are schooled to be a soldier, a scholar and diplomat, says Clancy. The reason is simple: every military decision carries political weight, and awareness of the political environment is essential from the first moment. In this episode, the last of our third season, General Clancy offers insight into how the EU Military Committee works. Representing the collective voice of all 27 Member States chiefs of defence, the EUMC must balance differing views, motivations, and national priorities to come to a position that is both realistic and effective.
