KMUD - Global Stuff - Global Stuff on Donald Trump’s Cabinet Picks
play

01/07/25 • 58 min

This podcast of Global Stuff features a discussion with Colleen Rowley,
retired FBI agent, about the background and potential actions by
Trump’s initial cabinet appointees, especially in the area of security and
intelligence. In this live interview with call-ins, recorded on Nov. 22,
2024, Colleen, explains the very real threats to the rights and security of
Americans represented by Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, Pete
Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National
Intelligence, John Ratcliff as CIA Director and others. As a leader in
Women against Military Madness she also talks about the
organization’s involvement in bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Special Agent (ret.) Coleen Rowley served in the Federal Bureau of
Investigation for 24 years, during which time she worked in several
offices, including those in Nebraska, Mississippi, New York, France and
Montreal.
She also served as the Minneapolis Division Legal Counsel who taught
Constitutional Law and law enforcement ethics to FBI agents and other
law enforcement agencies. She then became a whistleblower about the
FBI’s pre 9-11 failures, testifying to the Joint Intelligence Committee
Inquiry, the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Inspector General Staff
of the Department of Justice. She was named, along with two other
corporate whistleblowers, as Time Magazine’s 2002 Persons of the
Year. In an early March 2003 memorandum, she warned FBI Director

Robert Mueller about the Bush Administration’s deceptive plan to
launch war on Iraq, a country that had nothing to do with the 9-11
attacks.
She holds a B.A. in French from Wartburg College and a law degree
from the University of Iowa. Her work has appeared in the New York
Times, Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, The Huffington Post, and
CNN.com. In 2002, she received the Sam Adams Award – given annually
to an intelligence professional who has taken a stand for integrity and
ethics.
She is a long-time member of Women Against Military Madness and
Veterans for Peace and is most recently affiliated with the Eisenhower
Media Network

KMUD - Global Stuff - Global Stuff with Planned parenthood

06/14/24 • 58 min

This podcast of Global Stuff features two guests, recorded live on April
26, 2024. Planned Parenthood’s mission has always been to protect
health care, education, and reproductive freedom. They have
continued to provide quality services even when faced with ongoing
threats and challenges. Since the Supreme Court Dobbs decision, their
work has never been more vital, or more determined, even in the face
of increasing external pressures. Planned Parenthood of Northern
California is the umbrella organization for 20 counties in the state. In
this episode, I speak with Gilda Gonzales, President and CEO of Planned
Parenthood Northern California, and Anna Meldrum, Interim Regional
Center Director for the northern region. Together they supervise 18
health clinics in 20 northern California counties. They join me to discuss
the services they provide, who is eligible, how their work has adapted
since the Supreme Court decision and how they see reproductive rights
issues unfolding in the months ahead, including the potential impact on
the upcoming crucial fall elections.
