Spoiler: It's got nothing to do with inflation. From Stacey Abrams' shady Power Forward Communities (raising just $100 before scoring BILLIONS from Biden) to an EPA whistleblower spilling the truth—this was a desperate cash dump to benefit Democrat allies before Trump took office. Where did the money go? A black hole of legal fees, vague solar promises, and political insiders.

*) New Israeli strikes kill at least seven Palestinians in southern Gaza In Gaza, at least seven Palestinians were killed, and several more were injured in recent air strikes by Israel. According to witnesses, the Israeli military targeted a roadside stall selling goods in Qizan Abu Rashwan, south of Khan Younis, leading to two fatalities and injuries to others. In a separate incident, a medical source reported that an air strike on a home in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza resulted in the killings of three Palestinians and injuries to ten others, most of them children. *) Trump picks pro-settlement Mike Huckabee as US ambassador to Israel President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Mike Huckabee as his pick for US ambassador to Israel, signalling strong support for the Israeli government from his incoming administration. In a statement, Trump praised Huckabee's career in public service and faith leadership. He added that Huckabee's long-standing support for Israel is mirrored by the admiration many in Israel hold for him. *) Germany sets February 23 for snap elections after Scholz coalition collapse Germany is gearing up for snap elections set for February 23, after an agreement between its major political parties. This decision follows the collapse of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's three-party coalition last week. Parliamentary leader Rolf Muetzenich of Scholz's Social Democrats (SPD) shared that Scholz will seek a confidence vote on December 16, setting up a path toward the February election. The decision was part of a compromise worked out with the Christian Democrats (CDU) and their Bavarian allies, the CSU. *) Car ramming in southern China kills, injures dozens in rare violent incident In a rare and tragic incident, 35 people were killed and 43 injured when a car drove into a crowd around a sports centre in Zhuhai, southern China, while people were out exercising. Initial police reports only mentioned injuries, but details of the attack and videos were quickly removed from social media. By Tuesday, police announced that the incident was a “serious and vicious attack” and confirmed the death toll at 35. The injuries suffered by the 43 wounded are not currently life-threatening. *) Jury orders US contractor to pay $42M for torture of Iraqis at Abu Ghraib A federal jury has found CACI International, a US defence contractor, liable for its involvement in torture at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison in 2003-2004. The verdict, delivered Tuesday, holds the Virginia-based company accountable and orders it to pay $42 million in damages, awarding each of the three plaintiffs $14 million. This decision marks the first time a civilian contractor has been held legally responsible for torture at the notorious prison, where the three plaintiffs testified about being subjected to beatings, sexual abuse, forced nudity and other forms of brutal treatment.

Former US Senate Sergeant at Arms and local political legend Larry Benoit is voting "no" on the Cape Elizabeth $94.7M school bond come November 5th for a lot of very good reasons. The bottom line? The tax burden for residents far outweighs any educational benefits. And claims by the local school board that the proposed alternative $42M bond to cover the cost of essential renovations and repairs has not been vetted? "Disingenuous," Benoit says. "Utter nonsense."

Bitcoin rejected $70,000 again, and the US government spooked the market by moving $2 billion worth of its seized BTC just two days after former President Donald Trump promised that, if elected, none would be sold.

In the fifth part of this six-part series on Stories from the River, host Charlie Malouf welcomes back guest and good friend Charlie Workmon, President and CEO of Riverstone Logistics. In this episode, Charlie W discusses making the move to take over Riverstone Logistics full time with his full focus and effort.  He discusses the transition as well as asking Charlie M to serve as his formal mentor in 2021.  They discuss the mutually beneficial mentorship meetings that they held every two weeks, which included a formal agenda and walking through the influential Keith J. Cunningham book together, "The Road Less Stupid: Advice from the Chairman of the Board."  Charlie W talked about reflecting on the phrase: Know the game you're playing.  As Charlie W began to embrace the practice of "Thinking Time" that he took from Cunningham's book, he began to see clearly that Riverstone would be a people-centric and a client-centric platform for loving people well.  And not to be the biggest or the best but just to be on the journey and improve a little bit each day.  This belief would eventually be infused into the Company's purpose to love, serve, and improve. In 2021, Charlie W also came to the realization that the Company needed to be well capitalized in order to be able to run further faster.  This realization would eventually lead him to facilitating a transaction and to bring in a sponsor (i.e., a group of investors) who believed in the vision and to come help them take the Company to a completely different level in a way that's meant to love people. Charlie W cited the connection that he made with Harold Baron, the former CEO of Nolan Transportation, and the key leader behind the strategic money and group of private investors who would invest in RLX.  Harold is now the Chairman of the Board of Directors for RLX.   Charlie W reflected on the day that transaction closed in mid October 2021 and the gravity of that transaction.  He knew that they had put the Company in a really good position for the future, and that this was setting the stage to not just survive but to flourish with open hands.  The stage had been set to have rapid growth with strong financial backing.  Riverstone Logistics has seen impressive growth with revenues increasing from $13M in 2020, tripling to $42M in 2021, then doubling to $85M in 2022, more than doubling again in 2023 to $191M, and projected to reach $300M in 2024.  RLX has been recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in Charlotte by the Charlotte Business Journal for the past three years, and they completed their first acquisition late last year. Charlie W says that RLX today is a sunrise company who's best days are ahead of us.  Their operations reach across 31 states and three countries with 650 Extra Milers ("Extra Milers" being the term given to RLX's full-time employees).  RLX is a multi-modal logistics company with a successful Final Mile division as well as a growing brokerage division.  Their big customers are Lowe's, The Home Depot, IKEA, HD Supply, Crate & Barrel, Ashley Store licensees, and GE Appliances.  Charlie W explains that they are playing the part of a company that is set to do business differently.  He says that they have a "Field of Dreams" mindset where they bring key people in ahead of the need while waiting to see if their client would also join the company.  A mindset of "If you build it, they will come."  And, Charlie W says that they strive to over serve their clients, that they're structured to serve and love them well, that they have a transparent cost model, and that they work with their clients to share costs and help rein them in.   And he says that they focus on being open hands, being transparent and reliable, and enroll them on the front end as to what is a fair margin for their services. Charlie W unpacks the inspiration behind the company's Purpose statement "to use our God-given talents and opportunities to love our neighbors, serve our communities and improve our industry," which he and the management team crafted in late 2021. And then Charlie W also walks through the seven Core Beliefs of Riverstone Logistics:  - Go the Extra Mile - Run through the Storm - Canoe the Mountains - Win the Right Way - Pencils Have Erasers - Mutual Prosperity   - Profit Fuels Purpose Book mentioned: The Road Less Stupid: Advice from the Chairman of the Board - Keith Cunningham - https://www.amazon.com/Road-Less-Stupid-Keith-Cunningham/dp/0984659269  RLX Purpose & Core Beliefs:  https://rlx.us/purpose/ Listen to part one of this conversation, Family Business to Logistics Leader: How Charlie Workmon Got Started: https://youtu.be/2dtnhUNHwLs      Listen to part two of this conversation, Parenthood, Prayer, and Perspective Fuel Purpose for Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/aqYuV1qQokk  Listen to part three of this conversation, Broad River's 2015 Bold Reset: Turning Challenges into Opportunities with Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/1AW0WwZaC4A    Listen to part four of this conversation, Purpose-Driven Leadership in Retail Operations with Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/1AW0WwZaC4A   This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nS3gzJAjF0s  Visit https://www.storiesfromtheriver.com for more episodes.

Meet Joshua Walsky. He was co-founder and CTO of Broadway Technology and came up during the dot com boom. Now he's a Talentism coach, guiding the next generation of founders. If you've worked in tech, you've probably met someone like Joshua. Exceedingly smart, exceedingly talented, and digging an exceedingly big hole for himself...Like many technical leaders, his views on management have evolved dramatically since his early days as a software engineer. He used to believe that he was the one who should solve the problems so others could focus on execution. Through coaching, he came to understand the unseen cost of failing to create space for emerging engineers to get reps solving problems themselves. By unwittingly under-investing in developing his reports, he “borrowed against the future”.Joshua devoted nearly 20 years to building Broadway's offering and a team of 230+ people spanning five continents. He also helped raise $42M in strategic minority funding to accelerate growth and eventually negotiated the sale of Broadway. In this episode, Joshua describes a painfully common pitfall in management - unknowingly limiting the development of your people - in a way we'd never heard before. Whether you are managing or the one being managed, we hope Joshua's story unlocks learning for you too.Note about this episode: We love the ideas Joshua shares here. There are parts of this episode, however, where we don't love the sound quality. In the spirit of not letting perfect be the enemy of good, we wanted to share this episode because Joshua's words are so powerful. Learn more about clarity coaching at www.talentism.com

42M! 2.19.24 Presidents Day Mix - More 90s Mix by DJ KookieMonster

Dan Bernstein, Laurence Holmes and Leila Rahim opened the show reacting to White Sox manager Pedro Grifol telling reporters Tuesday that he wants "more" from former manager Tony La Russa, who is now in a senior advisor role for the club. Dan, Laurence and Leila then reacted to Grifol telling reporters the club will stretch out 14 starting pitchers at training camp. Later, Bernstein, Holmes and Rahimi discussed slugger Jorge Soler and the Giants reportedly agreeing to a 3-year, $42M deal. Did the Cubs miss an opportunity to sign Soler, who played for the club from 2014-2016? The midday crew pondered the question.

I wanted to tackle loneliness for my holiday special this year as not all of us are surrounded by family and friends. The World Health Organization has declared loneliness a global health threat — as bad for your health as smoking fifteen cigarettes a day.  Loneliness is the most significant preventable risk factor for depression, addiction, and suicidality. It increases the chance of early death by 30%, more significant than the risk of obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, and excessive drinking. Loneliness also increases the risk of heart disease, dementia, and diabetes. My guest this week is Pete Bombaci. Pete aims to make the world happier and healthier by eradicating loneliness. Our show was taped in front of a live audience of Managers from the City of Barrie, the Town of Innisfil and the County of Simcoe. Pete talked about the GenWell Project, Canada's Human Connection Movement. Pete shares why social connection is the most significant contributor to happiness, empathy, compassion, and resilience, yet our world is more disconnected than ever.

Today I'll be speaking with Kohn Glay, a gifted shadow work coach. I found Kohn on TicTok after his video on shadow work went viral…like 42M + viral. He goes live on YouTube to share his wisdom and to support his growing community to do the shadow work for themselves. Kohn started doing this work after the tragic loss of his son who was just 16 years old. He used his platform to pour love and blessings into others as a way to deal with his grief and it now reaches millions of people. I learned a lot as he helped me through the Shadow Work Journal and I think you'll get a lot out of this conversation as well.   This conversation will be one of the topics of The Self-Help Junkie series. My co-host Victoria and I will recap what it is, why it's important, and 3 action items so that you can start to apply the practices into your own life.    I'm really excited to share this conversation with you, so without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Kohn and let me know what you think!   Connect with Kohn here: Visit Website:  Follow on TikTok: Follow on YouTube:   Subscribe So You Don't Miss New Episodes!   Listen On:   Apple Podcasts https://apple.co/30g6ALF   Spotify https://odaatchat.libsyn.com/spotify   Amazon Music      Watch Full Episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/2UpR5Lo  

August 2023: Time for a Strategic shift.   Thank you for standing with TCM in this very critical hour for our nation and the Body of Christ. We are in a season of strategic mobilization. The battle is intense…yet we feel the favor and anointing of the Holy Spirit in a mighty way!  God has been speaking to my heart in recent weeks very clearly. I believe The Holy Spirit has prompted us to be more focused than ever before in spending our time and energy on doing exactly what God has given us in the overall vision of this ministry. In other words,…we are busier than ever! This strategic shift means only aligning with others of like mind (coming out from among the others), teaching and equipping the Saints through our 5 weekly TV/radio broadcasts, having strategic meetings to influence culture, helping those in need, and always keeping our evangelistic outreach at the very top of our priority list. This also means disconnecting from some other previous commitments, travel, and conferences to do so.  We know that the only way to win in this major battle we are in is if we truly change the hearts and minds of the folks by influencing as many people as possible and getting them saved, set free, healed, and delivered!  As a result, we will be streamlining our efforts and focusing our resources on what is most effective and needed.   There are three main areas of focus.  1. TV/Radio/Podcasts: Our media ministry has reached 42M people so far in 2023 on all channels combined. We have seen over 3200 verified souls come to know Jesus during this time. This has already exceeded last year's numbers. We also help counsel and disciple many from around the nation and world each day.  2. Remnant Revival Center: The Remnant Revival Center (RRC) in Nashville is in full swing and is our prototype worship facility where we hold weekly meetings and gatherings. I can't even begin to share all the testimony of what has already happened there. It is a refuge and house of worship where many are getting touched each week…and its only just begun! Please come and visit sometime soon on a Friday night to see for yourself!  3. Evangelistic Outreach: We believe now more than ever we must impact the community and influence those in government and other positions of power. Utilizing the trifecta of Religious Liberty Coalition, Remnant.News, the media ministry, the RRC, our online channels, and holding in-person meetings with officials, we can effectively do this in a way that initiates true change. We are striving more than ever to win souls daily for the Kingdom and stand up for Biblical morals and values in our culture!  We are a front-line ministry in a David vs. Goliath battle. We have significant warfare, pressure, and challenges from many angles. People have asked for pastors to take a stand…and we have answered that call!  Thank you to our amazing partners. We could not be doing all of these things without your help. We treasure you and your obedience.  Also, if you are not currently a ministry partner, please consider becoming one with this ministry. There are only a handful of ministries in this country that are taking this type of bold stand. This is good ground and we are a ministry of action. Everything you donate goes directly to these efforts. We truly need your help, support, and prayers more than ever!  May God's favor and blessings be upon you. Together, we make a huge difference! We must occupy until He comes! We are on the winning team! This is the time to stand more than ever before!

Run Into The Sky Inc. Paramotor Podcast Donate to $RunIntoTheSky Tonights guest: Mark Barron A little about my PPG. I learned to fly in 2017 from USPPA instructor Michael O'Daniel out of Northern Virginia. He has recently passed away (fatal PG accident in Columbia in 2020). I learned on an Air Conception 130 and since replaced the motor with a Moster 185 on that titanium frame. I fly a MacPara Charger 25M. I have my Tandem Exemption for Trike and have a Fly Products Xenit with Cosmos 300, I fly a BGD Cyclone 39M for solo and light tandems and a MacPara Pasha 5 @ 42M for larger tandems. I also have an electric SP 140 that I love for short flights. I'm getting into PG as well since Kyle and Travis from One Up Adventures had a PG beginner experience baked into their Costa Rica trip...and I loved it. I have a YouTube channel but admittedly I'm way behind on posting anything. I have most of my Wingman Challenge content in various stages of editing and expect it to go out soon https://www.youtube.com/@UCdCdDqmp8brkRyW0ZLbR0Yw Here's a link to a newsletter article I'm writing my Wingman Challenge experience on. Latest episode has Part 1. The next few months will document 3 or 4 more parts (one for each 400mile leg) https://www.flyingclub1.org/newsletters/latest_newsletter.pdf Wingman Challenge, Costa Rica trip with One Up Adventures, a few of my Paracamper build, a few of my family https://photos.app.goo.gl/GMuqsMHjCZgapDdN8  

Jeannie founded Funding U to provide a responsible loan option for academically achieving, low income students who needed last gap funds to complete college, but for whom the only available options were high interest rate credit cards. Her drive to solve this problem came from a decade of working in education nonprofits in Atlanta and an understanding that a mother's education level holds the single strongest correlation to outcomes of infant mortality, child literacy, household employment and income, and likelihood to live in poverty. Today, Funding U has originated $42M in affordable student loans to more than 4000 academically achieving undergraduates, 40% of whom are from families with income of $40,000 or less, and 60% are first generation 4-year college students. In 2020, the Company launched a Platform as a Service product, “Powered by Funding U,” which provides end to end data and technology solutions for organizations that want to provide outcomes based, income share repayment loan options for low income or other marginalized Americans. Funding U has raised ~$80M in equity and debt financing from investors including Goldman Sachs, Mackenzie Scott and Deciens Capital. Prior to starting Funding U, Jeannie was the first employee of the Atlanta Girls' School in Atlanta, Georgia, where she acted as Founding Director of Admissions. She then became Director of Development for Literacy Action and then worked for the Rollins Center for Early Literacy at the Atlanta Speech School as a Strategic Consultant. She is a currently a Trustee of Atlanta Girls' School, served on the Emory Board of Visitors from 2017 to 2019, was a Founding Board Member of Girls on the Run, Atlanta, 1998-2001, and was the first alumna trustee of The Lawrenceville School, Lawrenceville, New Jersey, 1994-1996.Jeannie is a graduate of Princeton University, where she obtained a B.A. cum laude, in English Literature and American Studies. She has launched three other successful ‘startups' - her children, Anna, Peter, and Robert - ages 22, 21, and 18. Jeannie joins me today, we start at a very high level about the industry in this conversation, we get very tactical for early stage founders.“I feel I fight and resist and tell my team to resist any binary conversations or a binary way of thinking.” - Jeannie TarkentonConnect with Jeannie on LinkedInSubscribe, Rate & Share Your Favorite Episodes!Thanks for tuning into today's episode of Startups For Good with your host, Miles Lasater.

On June 6, Psymposia reported on the presenter contract for MAPS' Psychedelic Science 2023. The contract includes clauses that limit when and where presenters can speak, and a "MAPS Reputation" clause that warns speakers to not "tarnish" the organization's "reputation and goodwill." After our reporting, MAPS announced that all presenters would be released from the radius clause of the contract. Concerns with the “MAPS reputation” clause were not acknowledged. We also discuss Russell Hausfeld's reporting on Kentucky's recent decision to use opioid settlement money on ibogaine research.     Read more:    Psychedelic Science 2023 Contract Muzzles Speakers: Two Clauses Dictate What Presenters Can and Can't Say by Russell Hausfeld      $42M for psychedelics research is not how Kentucky should be fighting opioid addiction by Russell Hausfeld     State of Kentucky Sets aside $42 Million for Psychedelic Research, with Focus on Ibogaine by Psychedelic Alpha     The Ibogaine Conversation by Psymposia    Support the show:   ☼Patreon: http://patreon.com/psymposia ☼Donate: https://www.psymposia.com/donate/         Follow:   ☼Twitter: https://twitter.com/psymposia ☼Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psymposia/ ☼Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/psymposia ☼Website: https://www.psymposia.com ☼Podcast: https://www.psymposia.com/plusthree ☼Newsletter: https://www.psymposia.com/subscribe/
