This next bit of information sounds like a new way to cheat in the election, and it is creative. This comes via D.C. Draino – Rogan O’Handley.

On Thursday, the United States and its allies secured a deal with Russia in order to return some 16 people, including multiple Americans, from the Russians. The Russians have basically taken several Americans hostage over the course of the last several years, and the United States traded a bunch of murderers as terrorists and spies for these hostages. This is being treated as a massive win for the Biden administration by the media and the Biden administration itself. In return for Evan Gershkovich and former Marine Paul Whelan, Russia retrieved eight people, including a convicted murderer who shot dead a former Chechen rebel leader in Berlin, a Russian agent accused of helping give sensitive American electronics and ammunition to Russia, a man involved in what American authorities called “an elaborate hack-to-trade scheme that netted approximately $93 million through securities trades based on confidential corporate information stolen from US computer networks,” and four other convicted spies. Republican Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said in a statement, “I remain concerned that continuing to trade innocent Americans for actual Russian criminals held in the U.S. and elsewhere sends a dangerous message to Putin that only encourages further hostage-taking by his regime.” It’s great that we’re getting back our people; that is a wonderful and good thing. But the treatment of this as a massive triumph by the Biden administration betrays an enormous amount about the way that Americans think about foreign policy, particularly on the Left and in the hallowed precincts of the State Department. The West has become accustomed to looking at foreign policy as though the best foreign policy ends in trading murderers and spies for innocent people. That is the best-case outcome. WATCH: The Ben Shapiro Show That is an extension of a generalized world view that the best foreign policy for America is to lose slowly and with the least possible cost, not to actually push to victory. It’s part and parcel of a broader worldview that says, for example, that Afghanistan was a triumph, which is something Joe Biden and Kamala Harris said, despite the fact that pulling out of Afghanistan left 13 American service people to be killed, hundreds of Americans behind, tens of thousands of American allies to be slaughtered by the Taliban, and millions of women to be dragged back into basements so they can’t go to school. According to Biden, his State Department team, and Harris, that was a triumph. To them, the best form of foreign policy involves losing very, very slowly and with the least amount of cost; the worst foreign policy is where you win. This is not unique to Biden or Harris. This has been an essential element of American foreign policy strategy on the Left for decades. It’s why America has not won a full-scale victorious war since World War II. It’s been a long time in America since we won a full-scale victorious war because we’re always fighting to stasis; we’re always looking for a way out. What this did was incentivize Vladimir Putin to take more Americans hostage. The West has been sucked into the morass of never winning victories and treating what are, by any standard of the imagination, losses as victories. Two things can be true here: It is incredibly good that Americans are coming home, and it is a diplomatic loss to trade murderers for innocents. Diplomacy is a tactic. It is not a strategy. The foreign policy establishment is constantly suggesting that diplomacy is in and of itself a strategy, that talking is a strategy. Talking is a means to an end. Sometimes it’s useful; sometimes it’s not. When you treat diplomacy as the strategy, what you end up with are bad deals and lost wars. Which is the name of the game when it comes to Joe Biden. * * * WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI

Ohio Senator and GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance said on Thursday that his 7-year-old son was trying to talk to him about Pokemon as former President Donald Trump called him about joining his ticket. Vance made the comments on the “Full Send Podcast” when asked by the Nelk Boys after being asked about finding out that Trump had selected him as his vice president pick. He said that his son was interrupting his call with Trump to try to talk to him about Pikachu, a yellow creature with electrical abilities from the Pokemon universe.  The Ohio Republican began by talking about how when he flew to Milwaulkee for the Republican National Convention he didn’t have WiFi on the plane so he had no idea what was going on. When he landed he said he had hundreds of messages.  “And I land and I’ve got like 350 messages,” he said.  “And one of them is from somebody on the Trump campaign and says, ‘Hey, you know, check your phone. Make sure you don’t miss a call because a really important call is coming.’”   NEW: JD Vance tells the story about how he found out he was the VP pick, says Trump pretended that he changed his mind after Vance missed his call. The comment came during an appearance on the @fullsendpodcast. “So we fly to Milwaukee and I have no idea what’s going on, and the… pic.twitter.com/GCVB3jcyLc — Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) August 2, 2024 He said didn’t know if it would be a good call or bad call, but said he knew it would be an “important call.” “And about an hour later, I get another message from the same person who says, ‘Hey, you just missed a really important call,’” Vance said.  He said that he called Trump back, who jokingly told him that he was going to have to select someone else instead of him.  “JD, you missed a very important phone call and now I’m gonna have to pick somebody else,” Vance said Trump told him as he tensed up.  “The crazy thing about it is my son, who’s 7, is in the hotel room with me, and he’s really into Pokemon cards right now. He’s going through a Pokemon phase right now,” he said. “So he’s trying to talk to me about Pikachu and I’m on the phone with Donald Trump.” Joking, he said that he asked his son to “shut the hell up for about 30 seconds about Pikachu.”  “This is the most important phone call of my life,” he said. “Please just let me take this phone call. And he doesn’t care. He doesn’t know what the President of the United States means.” He said Trump asked who was speaking and told him to put his son on speaker phone.  “Trump proceeds to read the statement that he’s about to put out making me his vp nominee,” he said. Vance said Trump asked his son what he thought of the statement and his son said, “Oh, it sounds pretty good.”  “He hangs up the phone and the statement goes out five minutes later and then my whole life changed,” Vance concluded. 

President Joe Biden threatened to cut U.S. support for Israel in a private call with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this week after Israel killed multiple top terrorists in the region. The call, which included Vice President Kamala Harris, came after Israel killed Fuad Shukr, Hezbollah’s top military commander, on Tuesday and is believed to be behind the Wednesday killing of Ismail Haniyeh, the top leader of Hamas. Shukr was targeted after Hezbollah murdered 12 children inside Israel over the weekend and Haniyeh was targeted in response to the October 7 attacks. Axios reported that Biden and his aides were furious after Israel carried out the strikes and demanded that Netanyahu move toward a hostage deal with Hamas. The Biden-Harris administration has repeatedly blamed Israel for not securing a hostage deal with Hamas even though it is Hamas that has repeatedly led negotiators along and backed out of talks. The report said that Biden warned Netanyahu “that he expects no more escalation from the Israeli side,” even though Israel was protecting itself against those who are responsible for killing large numbers of Israelis. “Biden also warned Netanyahu that if he escalates again, he shouldn’t count on the U.S. to bail him out,” the report added. Iran is furious after Israel embarrassed the Islamic regime, which is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, by killing Haniyeh as he stayed as a guest at an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) facility by using a bomb that was placed two months ago. Iran has vowed to retaliate against Israel for the attack and Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed terrorist group in Lebanon, has vowed revenge for the killing of Shukr. The IRGC is disseminating propaganda suggesting that Prime Minister Netanyahu, Mossad Director David Barnea, and others will be targeted for assassination. The image included the message: “there is no safe place for you.” The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) is disseminating this propaganda image that has Prime Minister Netanyahu, Mossad Director David Barnea, among others, with the suggestion that they’re going to be targeted for assassination.

Episode Description A Guide to Sleep Journals and Dogs with Backpacks Rewild Lewes This week’s good news: Karissa offers a guide to sleep journals, the perfect tool to help you improve your sleep quality. Then, Arielle shares a heartwarming solution going on in the town of Lewes, UK that has to do with local dogs on a rewilding mission. The Optimist Daily is a project of The World Business Academy. Donate link: https://www.optimistdaily.com/donate-to-support-the-optimist-daily/?gift=Y%20http:// Transcript     Theme music    Karissa   Hello and welcome to the Optimist Daily’s Weekly Round-up. I’m Karissa.     Arielle   And I’m Arielle, and we’re working hard to put solutions in view and optimism in movement.     Karissa   Hello again, we’re back with another episode of the pod to share the solutions from the Optimist Daily this week. How are you doing today Arielle?     Arielle   Well, I’m doing well. I’m excited for the weekend.     Karissa  Yeah    Arielle  Yeah. I don’t know what else to say (laughs).    Karissa   Yeah, it’s August now too, which is kind of crazy.    Arielle   Time just keeps flying! But you know I’m… I’m just enjoying… enjoying the long days and the warmth while we have it. How are you? Are you still traveling around Southern California?    Karissa   Yeah, I’m still traveling around Southern California, kind of seeing all my friends on the way, which is a lot of fun. And we’ve done a lot of summer activities like bonfires and floating in bays and… (laughs).    Arielle  Ooh, nice!    Karissa   So, it’s been a good time, but quite exhausting. So, July flew by, but I’m ready for August, to see what it brings.     Arielle   Yeah, you’ve been really busy. How um… are you getting any rest? Like while you’re seeing your friends… or?     Karissa   Oh well, I’ve been trying, but I feel like I have been having not a lot of sleep, maybe sometimes (laughs). And that kind of goes into my solution that I have to share today.     Arielle  Oh, nice.    Karissa  It was really interesting to me because I’ve had a little bit of issues sleeping. Not really the, like, getting any sleep. But I’ve been having, like, kind of weird dreams lately.     Arielle  Ohh…    Karissa  Also, it’s something that I might want to do to pinpoint why my sleep is a little bit off, so I’ll dive into my solution if that’s okay.    Arielle  Yeah, go ahead!    Karissa  It’s called: Keep a sleep journal to transform your rest and unlock better sleep.     You know I love Wellness and you know, I love journals, so… (laughs). I’m excited to talk about this… because getting a good night’s sleep is critical to our overall health and well-being. But with our hectic schedules, like traveling to see all your friends in Southern California (laughs) or just, you know, daily life anyways… I’m also working too and I’m sure people, in this day and age, relate to travel, work and everything in between.    Arielle   Yeah, workation, I think it’s called.     Karissa   But yeah, just in general, our lives are hectic, and we have distractions all the time, so getting enough restful sleep could be a little bit difficult. A sleep journal might be really helpful in this situation because tracking your sleep habits and patterns can provide significant insights into what is affecting your sleep and how to improve it.    Arielle   Okay, sounds pretty interesting… but what exactly is a sleep journal? Do you just track the hours that you sleep or… or something like that?    Karissa   Uh, not necessarily. It’s basically a tool that allows you to record different elements of your sleep and the circumstances that influence it.    Arielle   Hmm.     Karissa   But for this journal, you really don’t need, like, a fancy book-bound journal at all. A simple digital or physical record would suffice.    So even just in your notes you can record information about your bedtime, wake time, sleep quality, and other factors that influence your sleep.     Arielle  Mm-hmm.     Karissa   And again, it really doesn’t need to be fancy. Keeping it simple is what it’s all about. It’s just about understanding what influences your sleep. And seeing the data is so important. And these journals are awesome because you can customize it to meet your specific needs. Some folks prefer a narrative format in which they write phrases or paragraphs outlining their daily sleep pattern, so kind of more like a traditional journal. But others may prefer a more structured style, such as checking boxes and filling in numbers on graphs or charts.     Arielle   Is there any way we can get examples or inspiration for this cause I’m still having trouble kind of visualizing what my sleep journal would look like.     Karissa   Yeah, so there’s templates available from organizations such as the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the National Sleep Foundation (the NSF), and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, with sections recording daily data such as caffeine and alcohol use, exercise, naps, and tiredness, so there’s tons of resources out there to get inspo and templates and such.     Arielle  Ah, okay. So, you’re also logging, like, if you have caffeine or alcohol and like basically anything that could impact your sleep.     Karissa  Yeah    Arielle  That’s in-depth! How can we use our sleep journal to the best of its abilities? Like how can we optimize it?     Karissa   So, Arielle, you kind of mentioned that there’s a couple elements that also affect your sleep besides just when you go to bed and when you wake up. So, to use our sleep journal at best, we can also include these following factors.   In our article, we shared how total sleep hours during the 24 hours is important, sleepiness level throughout the day, medications used daily, the number of drinks containing caffeine and alcohol and the time you consume them, bedtime and wake time, exercise type and duration, sleep quality level, naps and their duration, the time it takes to fall asleep, and nightly awakenings.     It’s kind of interesting. I mean, I know there’s a lot that affects our sleep, but to see it all on the list is… it’s no wonder that our sleep can get messed up sometimes.     Arielle   Yeah, there’s so many factors.     Karissa   And then other factors you might want to know too that could affect your sleep are your stress levels, of course, or your caregiving responsibilities.     Arielle   Okay. Yeah, those are good pointers. And how often should we note these in our sleep journals? Is it like a daily thing?    Karissa   To receive the most accurate results, you should fill out your sleep journal before going to bed and again in the morning when you get up since there’s stuff going on at night and during the day. just 24 hours that affect our sleep so… A small 2024 study actually discovered that respondents had trouble recalling sleep details accurately if they did not enter their entries promptly. So, it’s important to detail sooner rather than later.     Arielle   Okay. How do we know that a sleep journal would be right for us?     Karissa   Well, you definitely don’t have to wait until you have serious sleep difficulties to start keeping a sleep journal, because it can be a useful tool for anyone looking to improve their sleep quality.     And to get meaningful results, you can attempt to keep the journal for just a week, and you should get a lot of data on that and some insights. This duration of just a week will allow you to identify patterns and factors that may be affecting your rest. So, even just using this as an experiment could be good. So, hopefully, you take inspiration! Again, like I said, the NHLBI for instance provides a sleep journal template with detailed instructions for completing it at night and in the morning. So, you can find out more about that. And I’m pretty sure we have it linked in this solution as well. So go check out the full solution on optimistdaily.com.    A more systematic technique might help you capture all the necessary information from a template. So, if the template works for you, it’s great, but you know you might prefer the phrases and paragraphs.     Arielle   Yeah. Just kind of like winging it.     Karissa   Yeah. So definitely experiment with it. It’s not a one-size-fits-all and it doesn’t have to be. Like journaling, it can be however you want it to be.     But that being said, if sleep difficulties are interfering with your everyday activities, you should visit a healthcare expert. The National Sleep Foundation defines chronic insomnia as having problems sleeping at least three evenings per week for at least three months. But you don’t have to wait until your problem is very serious to seek help. You can bring your completed sleep journal to your doctor and your doctor can provide significant insights and lead to a more accurate diagnosis and help you get that sleep. Because sleep is important.     Arielle   Hmm yeah, it sounds like keeping a sleep journal can really help us navigate the sometimes complex relationship we have with sleep.     Karissa   Totally. Yeah. So, in general, keeping a sleep journal offers a variety of advantages. It helps you identify patterns and find the links between your habits and your sleep quality that you may have not recognized before. It can help you improve your sleep, of course, because using the information from your notebook can make educated modifications to your routine to improve your sleep. And of course, schedule medical consultations with your sleep journal info, because a detailed sleep journal can offer your doctor critical information for better understanding and treating your sleep disorders.     Yeah, I thought this was an interesting one and one we can all do. And like I said, even if you don’t have very serious sleep problems, it’s always good to kind of keep the insight of your habits for one. So yeah.     Arielle  Mmhm.     Karissa   Just keeping a sleep journal for a week or two or even longer can help you figure out what’s keeping you awake and get a better sleep. So. Yeah, sleep is important, so.     Arielle   Yeah, this is really interesting, actually. I wonder if there are certain habits and patterns that you’ve developed that have led to all of these crazy dreams you’ve been having!    Karissa   I know. I think mine was kind of coming from stress is what I realized, so… but I think there’s definitely some more things that I could document as well, so.     Arielle   Hmm.     Karissa   I think I will give this one a shot. And I don’t have a physical journal on me, but I do have my handy dandy phone notes. I’ll start tonight!     Arielle   Yeah, well, good luck with that. Maybe I’ll do that as well. I don’t really have too much trouble sleeping. I’m really good at sleeping (laughs)    Karissa   Yeah, you should. I don’t either, which is such a, like a blessing to have because, you know, like I said, we need our sleep and not being able to sleep can get so frustrating.     Arielle  Mmhm! Yeah, maybe I do have trouble. Like waking up. If I’m being very honest (laughs).    Karissa   Exactly. No, it’s hard (laughs).    Arielle   Yeah, my dog is always like… she always barges into the room and whines and cries until I get up. Because she needs her walks.     Karissa   Ohh no, that silly dog Tink of yours!    Arielle   Yeah, I know. Well, she keeps… That’s her job. She keeps me, you know, locked into my schedule.    Karissa   Yeah, it kind of seems like she might have a mission Arielle (laughs).     Arielle   Oh yes! That actually leads me to my solution of the week. Being a dog person, I really couldn’t resist this solution. And it’s called, Dogs on a mission: rewilding Lewes’ urban nature reserve.     Today I have an absolutely delightful and heartwarming story for you all. It’s about dogs, obviously. And rewilding, and an urban nature reserve in the charming town of Lewes, which is in East Sussex in England.     Karissa   Ah, I’m excited about this one because I also love dogs and I also love to hear some rewilding and nature stories. So.     Arielle   Yeah, I actually went to Lewes last summer.     Karissa  Oh!    Arielle  So that’s also why this caught my attention. Yeah, I had a friend who, uh, grew up there. It’s such a quaint little town and there… there were actually such nice nature reserves around. And we took his dog out there and it was so beautiful, but it was mostly just like. Fields.     Karissa  Yeah.     Arielle  So, basically, what this initiative is about is local dogs being equipped with seed-filled backpacks…    Karissa  (laughs)    Arielle  …to mimic the role that wolves once played in the ecosystem. This project is run by the Railway Land Wildlife Trust and funded by Ouse Valley Climate Action. The idea is to use the dogs’ natural roaming habits to spread wildflower seeds all over the reserve.    Karissa   Wow. Yeah, this is a really brilliant idea, and I love the image of dogs wearing backpacks! Seed-filled backpacks…    Arielle   Yeah, so cute.     Karissa   …roaming around. How did they come up with this idea?     Arielle   So, the inspiration came from a 2019 project in Chile where two women and their three dogs helped reseed areas damaged by wildfires. Dylan Walker, the project manager in Lewes, saw the potential for a similar approach in their local reserve. He noticed parts of the reserve were getting worn down by foot traffic and thought to himself, why not use the dogs that are already walking here every day to help with rewilding?     Karissa   That’s a very good observation. And killing two birds with one stone.     Arielle   And… actually… it’s funny you say that because I was in a yoga class. Sorry. This is a total tangent.    Karissa  (laughs)    Arielle  But instead of saying “killing two birds with one stone”, the instructor, I don’t know what he was talking about. Probably some asana or whatever. But he was like “This asana feeds two birds with one hand.”     Both  (laugh)    Karissa   I like that!    Arielle   I like it as well, it’s a little bit more, like, optimistic!    Karissa   It is! Yeah, I’ll have to start using that one.     Arielle   Anyway, so the dogs get to fulfill the role that their ancestors, the wolves, used to have, which I think is also really cute. Historically, wolves played a crucial role in sustaining ecosystems by spreading plant seeds over long distances. As wolves traveled seeds got caught in their fur and were dispersed far and wide, aiding in the growth of diverse plant colonies. Without wolves, which became extinct in the UK around 1760, this natural seed dispersal system disappeared, and it made it much harder to maintain plant diversity.     The initiative is pretty straightforward, but it is ingenious because dog walkers can pick up seed-filled backpacks from the reserve staff. And then their dogs just roam and explore as they naturally do. And as they do that, seeds are released through small holes in the packs. They even mix the seeds with sand to help them spread further, and with the sand, it helps them track where the seeds have been deposited.     Karissa   I love how you said the initiative is pretty straightforward, but ingenious because a lot of solutions that really change the world, they’re pretty straightforward and it’s just a matter of it being right in front of us and implementing it.     Arielle  Mmhm, yeah.     Karissa   And it sounds like the dogs are probably having a blast while helping out. How is the community responding to this project?    Arielle   So, the response has been overwhelmingly positive. Local dog owners are thrilled to participate. One local, Cressida Murray, shared her excitement about her chocolate Cocker spaniel, Bertie, who runs around spreading seeds like his ancestors used to. So, it’s a win-win. The dogs enjoy their walks and then the environment also benefits.    Karissa   Hmm. Yeah, as pet parents, they must be very proud of their pets making a difference in their communities. Yeah, that’s amazing. Have they seen any results yet from this initiative?     Arielle   Yes, they actually have. So, Dylan Walker mentioned that they’re already seeing some seed germination in certain areas. And most of the seeds are perennials so they take a couple of years to fully establish and flower, but they’re hopeful that next year will bring even clearer results.    Karissa   Yeah, this is so fantastic! And it’s not just about rewilding, but also bringing the community closer to nature it sounds like.    Arielle   Absolutely. Walker highlighted that projects like these help people learn about ecological impacts while making the environment richer. And it’s a great educational tool and strengthens the bond between the community and the environment. So yeah, I guess, like for families that have young kids and dogs as well, it’s a really good teaching moment to show how, you know, humans can have a really beneficial impact on the environment… that we don’t always need to be exploiting it. And the hope is that this creative project will turn the Lewes urban nature reserve into a thriving ecosystem full of diverse plant species, all thanks to our four-legged furry friends. And yeah, to me it’s a perfect example of how community-driven efforts can make a big difference.     Karissa   Yeah, totally. And I feel like it would encourage pet owners and families and stuff to take even more walks in this area to, you know, see what kind of difference they can make. And so, I think that’s really cool. And it’s such a positive example of how humans and animals can work together to protect their environment.     Arielle   Mmhm, yeah, that’s what I thought as well. So. shout out to the Railway, Land, Wildlife, Trust and everyone involved. And yeah, if any of our listeners have dogs that they walk, then just think about all the good they could be doing for the environment. Because, yeah, who knows? Maybe this idea will catch on in more places, and we’ll be seeing more little dogs with seed backpacks on (laughs).     Karissa   Love the cute imagery of that! If your community has a place that needs rewilding, maybe consider bringing this idea up.    Well, that was super cool, Arielle. Thanks for sharing!    Arielle   No problem! And thank you for sharing your uh sleep journal solution. I think I’m going to try that as well.     Karissa   Sounds simple, but effective. That’s what I love.     Arielle   Yeah, that’s the theme of our podcast episode today. Simple. But effective.    Karissa   But we also have some other great solutions from the week that you can find on our website optimistdaily.com including…    Arielle   Plastic bag usage on UK beaches plummets thanks to mandatory charges.
