Chapo Trap House - 984 – The Killing Fields feat. Jasper Nathaniel (11/3/25)

Jasper Nathaniel is back with another report from the occupied West Bank. He tells us about a band of West Bank settlers attacking him and locals in the olive fields of Turmus’ayya, including an old woman who was beaten unconscious on camera. He then talks about the Israeli military and intelligence’s response to the crime, the footage actually breaking through to the mainstream Anglophone press, and various U.S. Senators’ response to the attack. Finally, he closes with speculation about Trump and Netanyahu’s refusal to sign on to an official West Bank annexation.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Origins of the Federal Reserve

In 1913, the United States created its third national bank. 

Unlike the previous two, this bank was organized in a completely different manner. It was organized differently, in an effort to avoid the problems of the previous national banks. 

Also, unlike the previous national banks, the creation of the Federal Reserve was not done openly and subject to public debate. It was created using secrets and subterfuge.

Learn more about the creation of the Federal Reserve and the very odd way it was created on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
