episode Fentanyl Is Killing Americans. The Government Is Targeting the Wrong Country — A CDC Insider Sets the Record Straight cover

Fentanyl Is Killing Americans. The Government Is Targeting the Wrong Country — A CDC Insider Sets the Record Straight

The Trump administration’s assault on Venezuela — marketed under the Orwellian banner of Operation Absolute Resolve — has been sold to the public as a heroic strike against the U.S. overdose crisis. The White House claims that kidnapping President Nicolás Maduro and his wife somehow “saved 25,000 American lives,” a statistic so mathematically absurd it collapses under basic scientific scrutiny. Dr. Charles LeBaron, a former CDC medical epidemiologist with nearly three decades inside the agency, joins us to dismantle this narrative. LeBaron explains that Venezuela plays virtually no role in the U.S. opioid supply — a fact confirmed by both the United Nations and the DEA. The real drivers of overdose deaths are illicit synthetic opioids like fentanyl, largely produced in Mexico using Chinese precursor chemicals and trafficked through official U.S. ports of entry, not through Caracas. But the deeper crisis, LeBaron warns, is unfolding inside our own borders. While deploying naval task forces to the Caribbean, the Trump administration has simultaneously gutted the very institutions that were finally beginning to reduce overdose deaths. Under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., addiction research, treatment infrastructure, and CDC overdose monitoring have been systematically dismantled — even after the country saw a historic 20% drop in overdose deaths in 2024. LeBaron describes a government waging a “war on science” at the precise moment when evidence‑based treatment, data transparency, and public‑health capacity are most needed. He also breaks down the drug‑bust paradox — the well‑documented phenomenon where cracking down on supply actually increases overdoses by pushing desperate users toward more unpredictable and lethal drugs.

episode AI Warlords and the Military-Industrial Complex: Unpacking the Dangers of Artificial Intelligence in Warfare with Peter Byrne cover

AI Warlords and the Military-Industrial Complex: Unpacking the Dangers of Artificial Intelligence in Warfare with Peter Byrne

"AI Warlord: Eric Schmidt," part of the Military AI Watch series from Project Censored, investigative journalist Peter Byrne delves into the concerning intersection of artificial intelligence and military operations, focusing on the influential role of tech billionaire Eric Schmidt. The piece explores how Schmidt, a former CEO of Google, has leveraged his vast resources and connections to shape military AI initiatives, raising ethical and moral questions about the implications of such technology in warfare. Byrne highlights Schmidt's deep ties to various governmental boards and advisory committees, including his leadership of the National Committee on Artificial Intelligence, which advocates for significant investments in military AI at the expense of social spending. The article discusses the potential dangers of AI in combat scenarios, particularly in the context of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, where AI-driven technologies like drones are being tested in real-world warfare. The narrative also addresses the broader implications of military AI, including the concentration of power among a select group of billionaires, the potential for increased casualties in warfare, and the allure of AI as a tool for surveillance and control. Byrne emphasizes the need for public awareness and scrutiny of these developments, urging readers to critically examine the narratives surrounding military AI and the motives of those driving its advancement. Ultimately, "AI Warlord: Eric Schmidt" serves as a call to action for individuals to educate themselves on the complexities of military AI and its far-reaching consequences, underscoring the importance of holding powerful figures accountable in this rapidly evolving landscape.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
