    John Ross: "The West Can’t Kill China, So It Wants China to Commit Suicide"

    China entered its 14th Five-Year Plan leading in hardly any industry. It came out leading the world in batteries, EVs, drones and biotech. I am joined by economist John Ross of Renmin University's Chongyang Institute to explain how. The answer is not a miracle ingredient but a high and steady rate of investment. Ross explains why the Western push for China to consume more and invest less would derail its technological rise, and why the US, now the world's largest importer of capital, wants exactly that.

    REVEALED: How Trump Plans To Steal The Midterm Election | David Gibbs & Radhika Desai

    With the US midterms less than two weeks away, Trump's poll numbers are cratering. Can he hold on, or will he try to steal the election? Professor David Gibbs, economic historian at the University of Arizona, joins me to explain why Trump's presidency has failed on its own terms. The self-styled peace president raised inflation and launched a war on Iran that never had public support, a first since 1945. We examine Trump's potential efforts to tilt the vote, from voter suppression to purging the military. The Democratic establishment, however, continues to fear its own socialists more than Trump and is unlikely to end the wars even if they are elected. Whoever wins, the empire's crisis will continue.

    Matthew Farwell’s Interview Went Unrecorded WHY?!

    Matthew Farwell spoke to the state investigators examining Sandra Birchmore's death, but their pivotal school-parking-lot interview produced no recording and no notes. Trooper Matthew Dunne told jurors that his supervisor, Sgt. John Fanning, approved the approach to keep the conversation informal. The idea was to avoid pushing Farwell to stop talking. Was the price of that strategy too high? Sandra Birchmore was found dead in her Canton apartment in February 2021. Federal prosecutors allege that Farwell, a former Stoughton police detective, killed her and staged her death as suicide. Farwell has pleaded not guilty and maintains that Birchmore ended her own life. The trial places the initial state investigation under an unusual spotlight: prosecutors are asking jurors to consider what police failed to obtain, preserve and follow up. Dunne testified that Farwell made misleading statements about the history of his relationship with Birchmore. He also acknowledged that he did not interview Farwell's coworkers. Bob Motta explores how those gaps affect a case built on disputed accounts. A question about what a person said is harder to resolve when the interview leaves no audio record. Eric Faddis examines the digital and departmental evidence. Nicholas Guarino testified he did not find Birchmore messages during his search of Farwell's phone and that the device was returned. Later FBI work recovered extensive communications from Birchmore's devices. Witness testimony about how police leadership learned of the lobby surveillance video adds another concern about communication within the Stoughton department. There are legal differences between a flawed investigation, negligent supervision and an intentional cover-up. Tony Brueski and his guests focus on the decisions the witnesses described and what proof would be needed before moving from an accusation of incompetence to one of deliberate misconduct.
