    351: Trump Approves Former Army Major’s Execution By Firing Squad & American Idol Contestant Convicted of Murder

    On this week's Without a Country, Corinne Fisher and Mike Harrington cover explosive reporting that Benjamin Netanyahu may have been warned about the October 7th Hamas attack, controversy surrounding The New York Times' Israel-Gaza coverage, and Israel's upcoming election. Corinne gives updates on her fight to close New York's voluntary intoxication loophole through Bill A101, the DSA's opposition, Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, and the ongoing Cornell gang r@pe allegations. Plus, Donald Trump approves a firing squad execution for the Fort Hood mass shooter, and former American Idol contestant Caleb Flynn is convicted of murdering his wife Ashley to pursue a relationship with his mistress, prompting a deep dive into their disturbing text messages, an AI-generated love song, religious purity culture, and the psychology of men who kill their wives. The duo also discusses Trump's warnings about a potential Iranian attack on California, Christa Pike's botched execution in Tennessee, the ethics and failures of America's death penalty system, Sunny Hostin's comments on the Cornell case, Cornell's independent investigation and campus sexual assault statistics, confusion surrounding Larry Nassar's sex offender registry status, and a controversial AI-generated victim impact statement that made its way into an American courtroom.

    350: "SHOP STILL OPEN?" Cornell Gang R4pe Exposes Horrifying Legal Loophole

    On this episode of Without a Country, Corinne Fisher dives deep into the rapidly developing Cornell University gang r4pe case, including new reporting that the Tompkins County District Attorney reopened the criminal investigation, revelations about what Jane Doe actually told campus police, the DA’s claim that he never saw a transcript in which she explicitly said she was r4ped, disturbing fraternity group-chat messages including “shop still open," confirmation that the alleged assault was never reported to the Ithaca Police Department, and the impact New York's Voluntary Intoxication Exclusion has had on the case. Corinne also reads firsthand accounts from listeners about SA culture at elite colleges and an anonymous Cornell employee’s account of how the university has handled the scandal internally. Before that, Corinne and Mike discuss two “Enemies of the State,” including Michael Tracey’s attempt to identify the Cornell Jane Doe and viral victim-blaming rage bait surrounding the case; read listener mail about a positive surrogacy experience; examine warnings from AI researchers and anonymous industry insiders about the race to build increasingly powerful AI systems; and close with updates on the Nolan Wells death investigation, Lindsay Clancy’s case following her mistrial, and the extraordinary last-minute legal battle over Tennessee death-row prisoner Christa Pike as the Supreme Court clears the way for what would be Tennessee’s first execution of a woman in more than 200 years.

The show then takes a deep dive into the lawsuit alleging that a Cornell University student was drugged and gang r4ped by fraternity members, examining the allegations, Cornell's response, the university's Title IX process, and the extraordinary reporting by the student-run Cornell Daily Sun. Corinne also discusses rape allegations against social-media influencer Clavicular. From there, it's time for a Cuties Corner focused on the Trump administration's changes to endangered species protections. The episode then turns to the White House's restrictions on media access, the fight over press freedom, a DOJ lawyer's past writing about Hitler, and historical parallels involving propaganda and control of the press. Corinne also covers the ongoing genocide in Gaza and international calls for accountability, a federal dispute over handgun sales to adults under 21, and the latest meeting between Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani. The episode ends with a conversation about surrogacy after the Supreme Court's involvement in a case involving a surrogate who refused to terminate a pregnancy after a serious fetal diagnosis.
