The biggest story of the week is the latest DOJ release of new Epstein files. Join us tonight as we go through what’s being widely covered, what the media is avoiding, and why some of the most important revelations are being quietly ignored — as if nothing happened.

As Trump ramps up threats against Iran, U.S. forces reposition and tensions across the Middle East rise once again. We also break down the leaked “Gaza Peace Board” documents pushed by Jared Kushner in Davos, exposing how peace is packaged, priced, and sold — while the region is pushed closer to another war.

David Reilly and Daniel McAdams join us to discuss anti-ICE protests and the expanding reach of government power inside the United States. We also examine the Pentagon’s new defense strategy and what it signals about Washington’s priorities both abroad and at home.

Stanislav Krapivnik, born in Lugansk during the Soviet era, is a former U.S. Army officer and military-political analyst now based in Russia. He joins us to discuss Davos, Trump’s escalating clash with Europe, the Greenland fallout, and the current situation in the Special Military Operation, Syria, and the widening cracks in the Western-led order.

Europe melts down over Trump’s Greenland comments as tariff threats fly back at the EU. Gaza gets a new “PAY-TO-PLAY” peace scheme, Kaja Kallas blames Russia on autopilot, and Syria continues sliding into chaos.

As Washington stumbles at home, it lashes out abroad — from Latin America to the Middle East and the Arctic. The U.S. escalates against Russia and China while quietly testing how much NATO dysfunction it can get away with. Joined by Geopolitical Analyst and Chief Black Piller Mark Sleboda to unpack America’s global overreach in an age of decline.

Today we welcome Scott Horton to the stream — American radio host and author, director of the Libertarian Institute, and host of The Scott Horton Show. He is the author of Fool’s Errand, Enough Already, and Provoked, all critical of U.S. wars and foreign policy. We’ll be talking about U.S. threats toward Iran, unrest in Minnesota following the ICE shooting, Russia–Ukraine, and more. Tune in.

A crackdown on the streets of the United States. Arson in Patagonia — and the motives behind it. Western-fueled chaos and tragedy in Iran. New excuses being floated to annex Greenland. Venezuelan oil being siphoned off. So much happened this week that the Oreshnik strike near NATO’s borders almost went unnoticed.

We are joined by Norwegian political scientist and commentator Glenn Diesen to examine a range of geopolitical flashpoints, from U.S. piracy on the high seas and oil seizures to annexation threats and the accelerating push toward global conflict.

We break down the aftermath of U.S. aggression against Venezuela — what happened on the ground, how the operation unfolded, and how the world reacted. From Maduro’s capture to protests and diplomatic fallout.
