Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

I'm your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

Thank you for joining me again this week.

To start, I want to try and address an elephant in the room.

It's so hard to talk about anything positive these troubled days we find ourselves in without sounding like a podcast about kittens and puppies. Although some people would like that as a way to forget all of the doom and gloom around us everywhere.

I'm not a bubbly writer. I don't do hearts and flowers or self-help shows, sorry. What I do talk about are all of the things that I worry about as a normal everyday American citizen. Things that I see and hear are the same things you see and hear. I'm just saying them out loud for all to hear.

Right now, we're all worried about whether our grocery bills and the already high cost of living is going to get higher this year, with everything Trump is doing. I don't have any good answers either. What I do know, is that letting the oligarchs keep us divided when we need more than ever to work together, no matter our cultural differences or political beliefs, is a path to nowhere.

So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit while I bring you some stories about our economy, ICE, and where we need to get if we're going to save this country from those who would steal it from us.

Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

I’m your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

Thank you for joining me again this week.

Today, I want to offer you a book review, along with a broader picture of what this book is about, and the current military culture behind the Trump-Miller immigration policy taking place everywhere in the country.

So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit while I try to paint a picture of a military culture in the United States going back decades that few realize has been going on right under your noses.

Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

I’m your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

Thank you for joining me again this week.

Things are a little bit quieter on the western front this week, but not by much. Trump is still being Trump and the congress is arguing about whether they should pay the Mafia Don the tribute he’s asking for.

The war in Iran is looking a little better, for now, but I don’t know for how much longer. It’s a little quiet this week as the diplomats are working things out, so they say. But that may change at a moment’s notice, as we all know by now.

What is heating up, is the war in Ukraine. And that’s where I lead off this week and I end with an economic outlook at late 2026 and into 2027. If we think grocery prices are high now, just wait.

So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit while I bring you more stories from the world outside of your village. News that the western media isn’t talking about very much, if at all.
