  • We Pay Tribute to Slain Lebanese Journalist Amal Khalil
    Apr 23 2026
    Today on Flashpoints: We feature PinkNotes with our good friends with CodePink. Medea Benjamin will be joining us live. Then we pay tribute to slain Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil, a brilliant and courageous correspondent for the Al-Akhbar newspaper who was killed in an Israeli airstrike yesterday in the town of Al-Tayri. After surviving an initial drone strike on a nearby vehicle, she and her colleague sought shelter in a home. The Israeli military then dropped a bomb directly on that building. It’s being called another targeted assassination of journalists by the Israeli Defense Forces.

    Apr 22 2026
    Today on Flashpoints: We turn our attention back to Venezuela and the tightrope Delcy Rodriguez and the leadership of the Bolivarian Revolution are being forced to walk by the Trump regime. Then we look at the tremendous amounts of money being made off of what appears to be insider trading based upon US military moves transmitted by Trump over social media. The new digital landscape takes corruption and war profiteering to a new level.
