• Another Take: How much of Americans’ tax money funds war?

  Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on April 11, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed. Interest in tax resistance is spiking in the US, ahead of the April 15 deadline when most Americans’ tax bills will come due. How many of them know where those tax dollars go, and how much of those taxes fund wars around the world? In this episode: Lindsay Koshgarian (@lindsaykosh), Program Director of the National Priorities Project at the Institute for Policy Studies Episode credits: This episode was updated by Tamara Khandaker. The original production team was David Enders, Fahrinisa Campana, Zaina Badr, Sonia Bhagat, and our host Natasha Del Toro. Our sound designer is Alex Roldan. Our engagement producers are Adam Abou-Gad and Vienna Maglio. Aya Elmileik is lead of audience engagement.

• Why is evidence of  Israel's war crimes in Gaza disappearing?

  Many of the images that have been seen from Israel’s war in Gaza have already been seen for the last time. With Gaza under siege from the Israeli military and tech companies censoring and taking down material, the responsibility falls on the people of Gaza to document and archive their own evidence of war crimes and genocide. How will it survive?

• Can Ecuador's next president stop the cartels?

  Ecuador heads to the polls gripped by spiraling violence and political uncertainty. Once one of South America’s safest nations, it now has the highest homicide rate in the region. The presidential run-off pits Daniel Noboa, the incumbent who’s militarised the streets, against Luisa Gonzalez, a left-winger promising social reform. Both offer starkly different futures. Which will voters choose?
