More Chaos from Western Countries. Especially the U.S.

Fáilte

Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

I am your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

Thank you for joining me once again.

I found a few news stories this week but as always, there’s just too much chaos going on around the world for me to delve into the front page news. There are plenty of other, more accomplished journalists, who’re taking care of that for us already.

What I did find, are a couple of articles about climate change. To which the current U.S. administration has order the removal of this terminology from its public vocabulary, along with the acronym DEI. I also have some news stories about the current European crisis regarding the U.S. pulling back from Europe secure. I do have a couple of other stories to talk about as well, that are not part of the mainstream you should know about, such as the real possibility of the U.S. committing piracy on the high seas, or it seems so anyway. I'll let you be the judge.

I am also going to talk about just how bad the infrastructure is in the United States in bits and pieces over the next couple of weeks. This week, I start with cybersecurity or lack thereof.

Once I've finished talking about the stories I found for this week, I would ask everyone to stick around through my commercial break because I have a treat for any listeners today. One of my favorite storytellers has written a second installment to a short story I read to people last November in my old podcast, Crann na beatha Stories and Poetry. It is a dystopian future story about climate change. I will be adding in some sound effects as well. I did this with the first installment so it wouldn't feel right if I didn't do the same with this chapter.
