• Double Tap War Crimes at Sea and Pardons for Narco-Traffickers

  This week on TFR, we go back in time to WWII and the Peleus Affair to explain why Hegseth is a war criminal. Once that was cleared up, we rolled our eyes at Netanyahu for his pre-emptive pardon request, threw our hands up at Trump for overtly meddling in the Honduran election and lament the continued school closings in Northern Nigeria. Then we look toward 2028 and the inevitable showdown between Cruz and JD. Who will be declared the least likeable?! We can’t wait to find out…Media:https://youtu.be/R0AN_1icmrw?si=1sOTsbghHFK9A260&t=40https://theiceman.substack.com/p/the-peleus-war-crimes-trial-and-sealhttps://x.com/mikenellis/status/1995964443532943761?s=46&t=loeg0xMcKLY6FjW7MavWWghttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/world/middleeast/netanyahu-pardon-request-israel.htmlhttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/1/what-does-netanyahu-want-to-be-pardoned-for-and-is-it-possiblehttps://zeteo.com/p/trump-hernandez-pardon-honduras-election-drugs?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=emailhttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/2/honduras-election-why-has-trump-threatened-to-cut-off-aidhttps://www.dropsitenews.com/p/honduras-election-trump-asfura-hernandez-casto-moncada-librehttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/2/juan-orlando-hernandez-freed-after-trumps-full-and-complete-pardonhttps://www.crisisgroup.org/africa/nigeria/schools-shut-down-across-northern-nigeria-wake-mass-abductionshttps://insiderpaper.com/adolf-hitler-uunona-wins-namibia-local-elections/https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/erika-kirk-turning-points-support-jd-vance-2028/story?utm_social_handle_id=16815644&utm_social_post_id=597958242&id=127847720&cid=social_twitter_abcnhttps://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2028-election/early-2028-fight-white-house-ted-cruz-rcna244987https://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/11/who-were-ohios-8-presidents-vice-president-jd-vance-could-name-just-2.htmlhttps://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/12/why-cant-we-remember-presidents-jd-vances-gaffe-highlights-the-science-of-forgetting.html Follow The Show: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheForeignReportInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/foreignreportshow/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@foreignreportlpnThreads: https://www.threads.net/@foreignreportshowWebsite: https://www.foreignreportshow.com/ Follow the Host:https://www.instagram.com/seenanow/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/travisirvineusa/?hl=en Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

• Trump Gets Cozy with MBS, Elon Screws Over Some Firefighters, & JD’s Heartless

  What a week. Seena & Travis are back to talk lobbyists at COP30 and who exactly is getting screwed by climate change. They marvel at Trump’s embrace of the Saudi Crown Prince and what that may augur for the region, check in on raging corruption in the Philippines, and side-eye Trump’s baseless accusations against Nigeria. Oh, and, of course, they had to cover JD’s security detail running over a police officer. 😑Show Notes:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Y4eNCjq_Jywhttps://www.instagram.com/thewhitehouseffect/reel/DQaGByvEg3x/https://www.transparency.org/en/press/lack-of-transparency-over-lobbying-at-un-climate-talks-undermines-public-trust-new-analysishttps://thegoodlobby.eu/record-high-number-of-fossil-fuel-lobbyists-at-cop30/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/nov/17/manila-philippines-corruption-protest-flood-funds?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=emailhttps://apnews.com/article/trump-saudi-crown-prince-mbs-505b32527e58d4bd49d5bc917efb4936?user_email=92bc3449781eed425b4f99e69ea51e8c0d0aa3f457676d4160e921b1bcac8241&utm_medium=Morning_Wire&utm_source=Sailthru_AP&utm_campaign=Morning%20Wire%20Nov_18_2025&utm_term=Morning%20Wire%20Subscribershttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/18/trump-hosts-saudi-arabias-mohammed-bin-salman-five-key-takeaways?utm_campaign=Weekly_1911/2025&utm_medium=email&utm_source=sendinbluehttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/us/politics/trump-f35-jets-saudi-arabia.html?campaign_id=9&emc=edit_nn_20251118&instance_id=166653&nl=the-morning®i_id=61617578&segment_id=210819&user_id=938bf81e2a681e73b55de1f8ba3e8d23https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/18/nigeria-intensifies-search-for-25-abducted-schoolgirlshttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/world/africa/trump-nigeria-military-christians.htmlhttps://www.wvlt.tv/2025/11/17/maryville-officer-critically-injured-crash-during-jd-vance-motorcade-making-small-improvements-police-chief-says/https://www.wkrn.com/video/bystander-recounts-crash-involving-jd-vances-motor...

• The Crisis in Sudan, a Blue Wave, Dick Cheney is Dead & JD Lost the Base

  **NOTE The causality from the Al Fashir has been updated from when we recorded. As of Friday the numbers from just the last 10 days could in the tens of thousands. There's also word that the RSF has agreed to a ceasefire...JFC**  This week as Seena and Travis celebrate much-needed wins for the Dems, send off Dick Cheney, our political Darth Vader, with a too-many-to-be-brief list of his top “accomplishments,” and wrestle with the ick factor of agreeing with Nick Fuentes about JD Vance. They also dig into the current status of the tragedy that is the civil war in Sudan. Hard to make that bearable but they do their best to break it down and provide some context for the ongoing genocide.Show Notes:https://youtu.be/l-Qi8srR7co?si=zyVTUV4snCkA313R&t=36https://youtu.be/xPtkpH1EUag?si=Z-k23heY8zSKD3h_&t=45https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvcayNd4ltohttps://www.npr.org/2009/01/16/99433354/cheney-worked-to-expand-authority-secrecyhttps://youtu.be/-hdtuu2QeC8?si=josXgiRPO8dCI5IH&t=33https://youtu.be/-hdtuu2QeC8?si=ouILsLDaMdfggtWf&t=84https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/world/africa/sudan-el-fasher-burhan-rsf.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/30/world/africa/sudan-el-fasher-atrocities-executions-video.htmlhttps://apnews.com/article/icc-sudan-darfur-elfasher-rsf-c0c4f64d31c7d8d518cfa47d3fb14566https://www.clarionledger.com/story/news/local/2025/10/30/jd-vance-at-ole-miss-turning-point-usa-abortion-israel-gaza-war-and-ai/86964142007/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb4dPM29QJ0&t=143shttps://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hindus-should-have-no-problem-if-usha-indian-origin-maga-activist-on-jd-vance-christianity-controversy/articleshow/125040199.cmshttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DQhMMr-Edfm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==https://x.com/ShadowofEzra/status/1984076670710710447https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hj-nn1lDgwohttps://www.reddit.com/r/CringeTikToks/comments/1o5p73u/everything_about_jd_vance_is_fake_even_nick/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDfhxMwoyWo&t=133shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wazxx7GqOd0 Follow The Show: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheForeignReportInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/foreignreportshow/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@foreignreportlpnThreads: https://www.threads.net/@foreignreportshowWebsite: https://www.foreignreportshow.com/ Follow the Host:https://www.instagram.com/seenanow/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/travisirvineusa/?hl=en Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
