Trump’s grotesque portrayal of himself as a Jesus-like savior—healing the sick, radiating divine light, draped in the flag—is a desecration of faith itself. It is a malignant distortion of the sacred, a blasphemous spectacle that defiles every moral principle Jesus embodied. His legacy will not be salvation, but infamy and the spiritual decay he has unleashed upon the nation.
In my latest podcast episode, Palestinian activist Samer Sinijlawi discusses the direction he believes the Palestinians need to move in at this juncture, and how to best communicate with Israelis in order to secure progress for Palestinians.

Since early 2026, Darfur has been the scene of abhorrent atrocities that the world’s most powerful governments have deliberately chosen to tolerate. Survivors recount orchestrated campaigns of gang rape, used systematically to shatter communities and terrorize women and girls into permanent silence. Key UN Security Council members and international players hide behind hollow statements, while allowing arms transfers, normalization, and diplomatic protection to continue. This is not bureaucratic failure; it is a conscious decision by powerful states to look away from crimes that bear every hallmark of genocide.
Today’s podcast guest is Samer Sinijlawi, a Palestinian political activist who calls for democracy and Palestinian political reforms, and the founding chairman of the Jerusalem Development Fund.
In this episode, we discuss the future of the Palestinians in light of the current state of affairs, the need for new Palestinian leadership, and what Palestinians can do to build bridges and create dialogue with Israelis.

Zambia’s decision to cancel RightsCon 2026, the world’s largest conference on human rights and technology, just days before it was set to begin, raises serious concerns. The government said the event did not align with “national values.” But in practice, the move shut down an important global forum for discussing issues such as surveillance, online censorship, and digital rights. More than 2,600 participants were expected to attend. The timing is also significant. With elections approaching, the decision reflects a broader pattern seen in many countries—limiting space for open discussion and civil society under political pressure. Beyond this single event, the cancellation points to a deeper issue: the growing restriction of debate on human rights, especially when it challenges power.

The United Nations is approaching a pivotal moment as member states prepare to choose the next Secretary-General. At a time of escalating conflicts and deepening global instability, the role demands more than administrative leadership. It requires political courage, clarity, and the willingness to confront crises directly. The UN’s relevance has increasingly been questioned, particularly its ability to sustain political momentum in response to major conflicts. Humanitarian responses remain essential, but they cannot replace decisive political leadership. Restoring confidence in the institution will depend on a Secretary-General who prioritizes accountability, transparency, and the protection of civilians, at a moment when the stakes for global stability could not be higher.
