Everything Everywhere Daily - The Spanish-American War

Wars are often notable points that punctuate the historical timeline. It is a period of tragedy, drama, and often geopolitical changes. 

However, there are some wars that have been all but forgotten from history. 

One such war was a brief conflict that lasted less than four months and was fought between the United States and Spain in the summer of 1898.

Learn more about the Spanish-American war and how the impact of that war is still felt today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Síobhra Aiken, “Spiritual Wounds: Trauma, Testimony and the Irish Civil War” (Irish Academic Press, 2022)

Siobhra Aiken teaches in the Department of Irish and Celtic Studies at Queens University Belfast. Her research interests include modernist Irish-language poetry; twentieth-century Irish-language literature; the Gaelic Revival in the United States, and 'trauma' and emigration during the Irish Revolution (1916–23).

In this interview she discusses his new book Spiritual Wounds: Trauma, Testimony and the Irish Civil War (Irish Academic Press, 2022), a study of trauma, memory and forgetting in memoirs and literature of the Irish Civil War

Spiritual Wounds challenges the widespread belief that the contentious events of the Irish Civil War (1922–23) were covered in a total blanket of silence. The book uncovers an archive of published testimonies by pro- and anti-treaty men and women, written in both English and Irish. Most of the testimonies discussed were produced in the 1920s and 1930s, and nearly all have been overlooked in historical study to date. Revolutionaries went to great lengths to testify to the ‘spiritual wounds’ of civil war: they adopted fictionalised disguises, located their writings in other places or periods of time, and found shelter behind pen names. This wealth of published testimony reveals that the silence of the Irish Civil War was not necessarily a result of revolutionaries’ inability to speak, but rather reflects the unwillingness of official memory makers to listen to the stories of civil war veterans.

Aidan Beatty is a historian at the Honors College of the University of Pittsburgh

In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt - Do Any of the Four Legal Cases Against Trump Matter?

Of the four legal cases pending against former President Trump, which is the most likely to see a courtroom or end in a guilty verdict?

What A Day - Tip Of The Weisselberg

A federal judge in Florida announced Thursday he is "inclined" to release parts of the affidavit that led to the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago earlier this month. That means it could be made public, giving the Justice Department a week to submit its redactions. Meanwhile, Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, pleaded guilty to tax evasion – and agreed to testify in a broader investigation of the company.

And in headlines: Israeli forces raided the offices of seven Palestinian rights groups, the U.S. boost its supply of the Jynneos monkeypox vaccine, and a federal judge ordered Starbucks to re-hire seven employees fired for union organizing.

The Daily Signal - Examining How COVID-19 Lockdowns So Easily Curbed American Freedoms

Americans still remember how the COVID-19 pandemic led not only to the loss of lives, but the loss of livelihoods.


As businesses closed, the government grew in power and Americans' liberties shrank, contends journalist Cheryl Chumley, author of the book "Lockdown: The Socialist Plan to Take Away Your Freedom."

"It was alarming to me how the left used fear to steal our constitutional, God-given rights," Chumley says.


Online opinion editor for The Washington Times and host of the "Bold and Blunt" podcast, she has reported on Capitol Hill and covered state and local politics before coming to Washington.


Chumley, who joins this episode of "The Daily Signal Podcast," says the biggest long-term effect of the government's response to the pandemic may have been "shifting the mindset of American citizens from one of individualism into one of collectivism."


"I wrote 'Lockdown' basically as a look back on where the government got it wrong and how the Democrats used it for political gain, but more importantly, looking forward to how the Democrats plan to continue to use a pandemic to segue into the next cause to justify continuing lockdowns," she says.
