Joe Rogan regular apologizes for supporting Trump, calls for impeachment Trump, who campaigned against getting involved in "endless wars," has supported Israel's actions. On Truth Social, he warned Iran that if the U.S. is attacked, "the full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before."

Canadian Indigenous leader says he was 'filled with rage' before 'intense' conversation with Trump

A Canadian Indigenous leader who greeted world heads of state arriving for the Group of Seven summit says he was “filled with rage” and considered leaving before Donald Trump arrived — saying the U.S. president has “caused much pain and suffering in the world.” .......... Instead, Steven Crowchild prayed, consulted with his peoples' leaders and ultimately opted to stay on the tarmac for a long conversation with Trump that he hopes will call more attention to promoting peace, protecting clean water and other issues key to Canada's First Nation peoples. .......... Crowchild said he spoke in his people's traditional language, wore feathered headgear that made him feel strong and showed Trump treaty medals that he told the president were older than Canada itself. Trump wore a white “Make America Great Again” cap and appeared to be listening at length — though both sides declined to comment on exactly what was said. ........ Aware that “no Indigenous representation was there at the time,” Crowchild said he “prayed to my creator” and “really thought of those suffering around the world” in choosing to speak to Trump. .......... Crowchild said that, in addition to Trump, he greeted other arriving world leaders and "tried to remind each one of them to try to be a good leader and protect our water for future generations.” ........... “I spoke for my elders," Crowchild said, noting that he spoke of promoting peace and “protecting water for future generations" and tried to “say as much as I could, as wisely as I could, while representing with honor and dignity. Whether he listened or not, time will tell.” .......... He said that, ultimately, the U.S. president is “just another person." ....... “Some would say he’s a horrible person, and we all know many reasons," Crowchild said. "I stood taller than him as proud Tsuut’ina Isgiya.”

16: Israel

Iran's plot to retaliate against Israel for starting the latest round of escalating violence in the Middle East may hit the world worse than Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine and Covid-19 combined, an economist has warned. ...........

experts fear Iran may soon take actions that could draw the whole world into the conflict.

......... Over the weekend, Islamic Revolutionary Guard commander Sardar Esmail Kowsari told local media that closing the Strait of Hormuz 'is under consideration, and Iran will make the best decision with determination.' .......... Around 20% of the world's oil flows through the tiny sea passage, along with a fifth of all Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), making it the 'world's most important oil transit chokepoint', according to the the US Energy Information Administration. ........... 'All of a sudden, all the crises we had just overcome would return: the energy crisis, inflation, disrupted supply chains, and now the threat of mass unemployment.' ........... Iraq's foreign minister Fuad Hussein warned of a 'global energy crisis' if the Strait is closed. ....... Since Israel began its invasion of Ukraine, the Yemeni Houthi group have been attacking ships in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, the entry into the Red Sea, in an effort to pressure the West, which has largely backed Israel throughout its history. ........... But ships that ordinarily use the Bab al-Mandeb Strait can still avoid it by sailing round Africa. ...........In the case of the Strait of Hormuz, there is no way to get anything out of the Gulf of Persia, the single biggest source of petroleum in the world...................
Cutting the world off from such a large source of energy would massively affect economies across the world, which still largely rely on non-renewable sources like oil for their needs.
.......... Israel now controls the skies from western Iran to Tehran. ......... At its thinnest, it is just 21 miles wide, and the shipping lanes in the Strait are even smaller.

G7 + BRICS = G30: A Bold Vision for Global Cooperation in the 21st Century

G7 + BRICS = G30: A Bold Vision for Global Cooperation in the 21st Century

As we enter an era defined by rapid technological evolution, climate instability, and shifting economic power, our global governance structures must evolve to meet these historic challenges. The G7—long the club of industrialized Western powers—and BRICS—an emerging bloc representing the voices of the Global South—have both shaped the global agenda in their own ways. But now, the moment calls for something greater: a unified, inclusive, and purpose-driven G30.

Imagine a new global forum—not dominated by legacy powers, nor reactive to rising ones—but proactively inclusive. The G30 would bring together the thirty largest economies in the world—representing over 85% of global GDP, the bulk of humanity, and the vast majority of carbon emissions. This new assembly would replace outdated silos and rivalries with collective vision and responsibility.

Why is this necessary?

1. A New Trade Paradigm

Global trade today is fragmented. The era of bilateral dominance and closed trade blocs must give way to a more equitable model. As argued in Rethinking Trade: A Blueprint for a Just and Thriving Global Economy, we need trade rules that are fair, sustainable, and innovation-friendly. A G30 could set the standards for fair taxation, digital trade, carbon tariffs, and South-South cooperation—something neither G7 nor BRICS can do alone.

2. Climate Change: No Room for Fragmentation

Tackling climate change cannot be left to voluntary national commitments or Western-led coalitions. The G30 would include top polluters and top innovators—from the U.S., China, and India to the EU, Brazil, Indonesia, and South Africa. A collective climate compact forged by the G30 would have the credibility, legitimacy, and muscle to drive planetary-scale action.

3. AI and Existential Risk

AI safety isn’t just a tech issue—it’s a survival issue. With AI rapidly becoming a geopolitical weapon and commercial superpower, governance must keep pace. The G30 could institutionalize global AI safety standards, align incentives between nations, and ensure AI development remains human-centered and cooperative, not competitive and dangerous.

From Division to Design

The G7 reflects a post-WWII order. BRICS reflects a post-Cold War awakening. The G30 would reflect the post-carbon, post-scarcity, post-fragmentation world we must now build. Not a replacement of the UN, but a streamlined economic council of major powers working as a steering committee for Earth.

Annual summits could alternate between North and South, West and East. Representation could be balanced by population and GDP. Accountability could be ensured by civil society audits and open deliberations.

The Road Ahead

This proposal is ambitious—but not utopian. The G20 already showed that broader formats work. A G30 would be the next step in building a new multilateralism—one fit for an interdependent world, where prosperity, peace, and planetary survival depend on cooperation, not control.

It’s time to move from posturing to partnership.
It’s time for the G30.

Designing the G30: A Functional Governance Structure for a New Global Order

If the G30—a proposed forum of the world’s 30 largest economies—is to do more than just issue ceremonial statements, it must have real power, legitimacy, and the ability to act. That means it needs a governance structure that is both fair and functional.

One proposed design includes a three-layer voting system:

GDP (PPP)-Weighted Votes:
Each country gets votes in proportion to its share of global GDP, adjusted for purchasing power parity.
🟢 Reflects economic weight and contribution.
🔴 Risks domination by the wealthiest nations.
Population-Weighted Votes:
Votes based on national population share.
🟢 Gives voice to populous nations like India, China, and Nigeria.
🔴 May dilute smaller countries’ influence or underrepresent innovation hubs.
One-Country-One-Vote:
Every country gets a single equal vote.
🟢 Guarantees sovereign equality.
🔴 Undermines the influence of countries with greater global responsibility or impact.

Pros of the Three-Layer Model

✅ Balanced Representation:
It combines economic power, demographic weight, and national sovereignty—giving each country a seat and a stake.

✅ Checks and Balances:
No single axis of power can dominate. The West, Global South, and smaller economies each gain a lever of influence.

✅ Legitimacy:
People in the street, whether in São Paulo or Seoul, can see themselves reflected in the G30’s decisions.

Cons and Concerns

⚠️ Complexity:
Three layers of voting can slow decision-making. Weighted votes require constant recalibration based on economic and demographic changes.

⚠️ Gridlock Risk:
If all three layers must agree for a motion to pass, decisions could stall. If only one or two layers are required, legitimacy may be questioned.

⚠️ Opaque Outcomes:
Translating votes across three systems into one policy decision might feel technocratic or hard to follow for the public.

Can It Be Simplified?

Here are three streamlined alternatives:

Dual Chamber (Bicameral) System:
- Economic Council: Votes based on GDP (PPP).
- People’s Council: Votes based on population.
- Legislation must pass both chambers.
- Simpler than three layers, but still balances power and people.
Rotating Leadership Model:
- Executive functions rotate annually among regions.
- Voting could still be weighted, but leadership ensures equity over time.
Hybrid Weighted Voting:
- A single formula combining GDP (PPP), population, and equal share.
- For example: 40% GDP + 40% population + 20% equal vote.
- Transparent, formulaic, and adaptable.

What Makes It Effective?

An effective G30 governance system would need:

Clear decision rules (e.g., supermajority, consensus, or weighted thresholds).
Permanent secretariat for continuity and policy follow-through.
Issue-specific working groups (e.g., climate, AI safety, trade reform).
Dispute resolution mechanism, potentially binding.
Annual summit + quarterly digital coordination.

Final Thought

The G30 must walk a tightrope between efficiency and legitimacy. Too simple, and it risks becoming a rubber stamp for powerful countries. Too complex, and it becomes paralyzed by procedure.

The three-layer model—if designed well—could offer a uniquely balanced foundation for 21st-century global governance. But it must be built not just for representation, but for results.

We don’t just need another club. We need a functioning compass for the planet.
