Pour ce 60e épisode du balado Cyber Citoyen, nous sommes une fois de plus rejoins par notre ami Nicolas-Loïc Fortin du balado Polysécure.
Cette fois-ci, un sujet un peu hors de notre habitude. Nous allons aborder le fameux dossier Jeffrey Epstein: son histoire, l'enquête et l'arrestation de 2005, la sentence bonbon, sa seconde arrestation en 2019, les circonstances de son décès, ses liens avec Donald Trump et la débâcle actuelle.
En plus, cette histoire nous permet d'aborder la pyramide de la conspiration, de discuter des sources et de la vérification de celles-ci en journalisme et d'autres sujets.

What is going on with the economy right now?
There are a lot of mixed signals. President Trump slashed taxes, but he’s also bringing in a lot of money through tariffs. Inflation is creeping up, but the stock market keeps rising. Eye-wateringly large investments are flowing to A.I., which could lead to an explosion of productivity but also mass job loss. And then Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after a disappointing jobs report, raising concerns that the government’s data on the economy might get shakier.
Natasha Sarin is the president and a founder of the Budget Lab at Yale. She has been tracking these trends and modeling the potential economic effects of many of Trump’s policies. I invited her on the show to walk through what she is thinking about the economy.

In December 2023, when South Africa accused Israel of genocide before the International Court of Justice, I thought it was wrong to do so. Israel had been attacked. Its defense was legitimate. The blood was on Hamas’s hands.
But over the last year, I have watched a slew of organizations and scholars arrive at the view that whatever Israel’s war on Gaza began as, its mass assault on Palestinian civilians fits the definition of genocidal violence. This is a view now held by Amnesty International, B’Tselem, Human Rights Watch, and the president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars, among many others
One reason I have stayed away from the word genocide is that there is an imprecision at its heart. When people use the word genocide, I think they imagine something like the Holocaust: the attempted extermination of an entire people. But the legal definition of genocide encompasses much more than that.
So what is a genocide? And is this one?
Philippe Sands is a lawyer who’s worked on a number of genocide cases. He is the author of, among other books, “East West Street,” about how the idea of genocide was developed and written into international law. He is the best possible guide to the hardest possible topic.
