Tara exposes how the Biden administration has been spending taxpayer dollars on food and hotel accommodations for illegal immigrants in New York City. From catered meals delivered to hotel rooms to massive security bills, this episode compares these expenditures with the outrage over lobster and steak served to U.S. troops, highlighting the double standard in government spending priorities. Episode Summary: In today's episode, Tara dives into a Judicial Watch report uncovering how the federal government spent nearly $600,000 per week on meals for illegal immigrants in NYC hotel housing. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were hand-delivered to rooms, with security costs adding millions more. The redacted FOIA documents suggest the food quality was intentionally kept secret, fueling speculation that nothing was spared. Tara contrasts this with outrage over Pete Hegseth serving lobster and steak to U.S. troops—meals meant to reward those risking their lives. While Democrats criticized the military spending, they appear unconcerned with lavish taxpayer-funded services for illegal immigrants. The episode also touches on historical precedent, showing that past administrations, from Clinton to Trump, provided special meals to troops. Through this lens, Tara examines the broader implications of spending priorities, political incentives, and media coverage, raising questions about fairness and the use of taxpayer money. Key Topics Covered: Judicial Watch FOIA findings on NYC illegal immigrant meals $583,000 per week spent on breakfast, lunch, and dinner deliveries $3 million spent on hotel security for eight weeks Redactions hiding the details of food served Comparison with lobster and steak served to U.S. troops Political and media double standards on government spending Who's getting lobster, steak, and $600K weekly meals in NYC?

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to John and Victoria in a follow-up episode. This couple, in their thirties with three children and a home in suburban New York, is facing severe financial challenges with 97% fixed costs and over $100K in non-mortgage debt. In their last session, Ramit highlighted the urgency of their situation, presenting them with two stark choices: sell their house and clear debt, or double down on income and aggressive cuts.

Send a textRespect is a big word in relationships, especially for men - but what does respect truly mean? We all need respect, but not always aligned on what it looks like in a relationship. In this episode, with licensed therapist Quentin Jiles, we take a look at the topic of respect and answer many of the questions people have. Why is respect so important? How do you distinguish between being “overly sensitive”, “prideful” and disrespectful? Should we automatically know what respect is, or is it learned? Is respect the same for men and women? Are there ever times when it's okay to disrespect your spouse? If you or your spouse has ever struggled with giving respect or communicating what respect is to you, this episode is for you. Respect is too important of an issue to overlook.

Luxury Listing Specialist - Dominate High End Listings In Any Market
In this livestream-style episode, Michael LaFido shifts from interviewing service providers to spotlighting a real-world success story from one of his Luxury Mastery coaching students, Felita, a Houston-based agent with 24 years of experience. Michael frames the conversation around opportunities—explaining the difference between cold opportunities (people who don't know/like/trust you yet) and warm opportunities (your sphere, CRM, and people who already know you). The main case study: Felita challenged her own limiting beliefs by hosting an open house at a $1.95M listing—nearly 3x higher than the most expensive open house she'd ever hosted (previously ~$650K). Despite little prep time (she hadn't toured the home in advance and didn't deploy as many signs as recommended), she generated strong traffic across the weekend and proved to herself that luxury buyers are “no different than everyone else”—they still respond to confidence, professionalism, and great questions. Michael and Felita unpack why this worked: the listing had been on the market for about 18 months, meaning the listing agent and seller likely felt pressure and welcomed fresh activity. Felita approached the listing agent with a win-win solution, hosted the open house, and used a clear sign-in requirement to maintain control and professionalism. The biggest breakthrough came from her ability to adapt quickly—after noticing visitors cared heavily about schools, she returned the next day with a portfolio/binder of nearby sold homes in the school zone, which helped her build authority fast. That preparation paid off: Felita built rapport with attendees and earned the opportunity to show a couple a $3M home, expanding her confidence and pipeline in higher price points—even though she hadn't personally sold above ~$600K before. The episode closes with Michael encouraging viewers to step out of their comfort zone, leverage OPP (Other People's Properties) with permission, and use simple video before/during/after open houses to position themselves as a trusted authority. Michael also promotes upcoming LUXE Designation training (including an April 16 Houston event) and ends with his signature motivational theme: “Prove them wrong.” Key Takeaways Luxury growth starts by chasing opportunities, not just closings. Hosting higher-end open houses can be a fast path to new relationships and confidence. Stale listings can be a strategic opening for a win-win pitch to the listing agent. Asking great questions + listening creates trust quickly, even in luxury. Adaptation wins: bring value that matches buyer motivation (ex: school-specific portfolio).

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Gail Kasper, founder of Gail Kasper LLC, shares her journey from being fired and starting with no money to building a thriving speaking and training business. She reveals how authenticity became her competitive edge and how mastering professional sales transformed her income from free gigs to $25,000 keynotes and $600K contracts. Gail breaks down the power of referrals, structured sales systems, and strong core values in scaling sustainably. She also opens up about leadership lessons, hiring mistakes, and the mindset required to handle setbacks. This conversation is packed with practical insights for entrepreneurs who want real business success without losing who they are. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Gail Kasper of Gail Kasper LLC, the hardest thing in growing a small business is dealing with failure and having the resilience to keep going despite repeated setbacks. She explains that as an entrepreneur you get "hit in the face" many times through failed projects, wrong decisions, or ideas that don't take off, and the real challenge is not letting those moments stop you. Instead of quitting, she believes the key is to keep pushing forward, learn from mistakes, take action, and stay committed even when things feel uncertain or discouraging. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? According to Gail Kasper, her favorite business book that has helped her the most is Atomic Habits by James Clear. She values its focus on small, consistent disciplines rather than just chasing big end goals, emphasizing that daily incremental improvements create real momentum. For Gail, the book reinforces that tiny wins build confidence, strengthen habits, and ultimately drive long-term business success. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Gail Kasper, she recommends podcasts and learning resources that strengthen mindset, sales, and brain-based performance, including Huberman Lab for its science-backed insights on stress and peak performance, and The Ed Mylett Show by Ed Mylett for its focus on growth, vulnerability, and high-level thinking. She values resources that blend psychology, communication, and practical application, believing that understanding how people think—especially in sales and leadership—gives small business owners a strong competitive edge. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? One highly recommended tool that Gail Kasper often points small business owners toward is HubSpot CRM, because it helps organize leads, track sales activity, automate follow-ups, and manage customer data in one place — all without needing a big tech team. Gail emphasizes that having a system that captures conversations, schedules reminders, and analyzes what's working versus what's not can dramatically improve consistency in sales and client relationships, which is essential for growth. If you're just getting started, HubSpot's free tier gives you powerful CRM basics, and you can scale into its marketing and automation tools as your business expands. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Gail Kasper, the advice she would give herself on day one of starting out in business is simple: move and take action. When she was suddenly on her own with no money in the bank, she learned that inaction is the real danger, not mistakes. She would remind herself to stay logical instead of emotional, keep pushing forward even when uncertain, and allow herself to fall and learn along the way, because consistent action is what ultimately creates momentum and success.

Track Interest, Committed, and Invested Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In raising a round of funding, most founders focus on the invested funds so far. When asked about the progress, the founder quotes the invested amount and the amount left in the raise. This undersells the traction the founder has. In addition to the invested, also track the interest and committed funds. For each investor who has some interest, ask for their level of interest. Add up all the interested investor amounts. For those who are committed but not yet invested, add up those funds as well. In discussing with prospective investors, quote the interest, commitment, and investment. This shows additional interest from investors in the round. A typical update would be, in our $1M raise, we have $600K invested, $250K committed, and interest at $800K. It's often the case that the interest and committed funds are greater than the remaining amount in the raise. This creates scarcity and generates FOMO with the investors who now see that there's not enough room to cover all potential investors. Use this to help close the fundraising round. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

Why would the EU destroy it's own energy policy? “Why would Europe agree to be ‘net-zero' in 2030, when they don't make a battery,” he asked. Thus, the pragmatic realism of policy intersects with the hypocritical action and creates an outcome that no one can explain. “So, if they go 2030, they are intentionally deciding to be subservient to China who makes the batteries,” he continued.

Growing allegations that the Islamic Republic of Iran may have used chemical agents against protesters have intensified scrutiny of the regime's most recent crackdown, described by observers as the deadliest suppression of public dissent in the country's modern history. The claims gained momentum following the circulation of footage from Sabzevar showing Iranian security forces equipped with protective gear typically associated with hazardous chemical environments, as well as testimony from protesters in Tehran describing prolonged and unusual medical symptoms after exposure to what authorities labeled “tear gas.” Video at Iran So Far Away. source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/GBNT1952/status/2013441161247998050?s=20 This is how states demonstrate commitment along a shared line of effort without firing a shot: visible logistics, presence, and implied backing that complicate an opponent's decision cycle. This is also why the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group is on the way to the Middle East as we speak. From a doctrinal standpoint, this kind of move deliberately raises the escalation ladder, forcing US planners to account not just for Iranian responses, but for second and third order effects involving a near peer competitor. That reality likely explains why President Trump has avoided striking Iranian targets, because any kinetic action now risks collapsing the problem set from a regional contingency into a multi theater confrontation. In simple terms, Iran stops being a standalone target and becomes part of a larger system tied to Chinese interests, and no serious commander ignores force posture, alliance signaling, and deterrence dynamics when weighing an OPLAN. China obviously understands this, which is precisely why these moves matter: they restrict American freedom of action by design, without ever needing to engage directly. Thus the Iran problem becomes even more complex.

WASHINGTON DC – President Trump has expanded the mission of his proposed Gaza Board of Peace into a global body that would take on the role mediating conflicts currently held by the United Nations and carry a $1 billion fee for a permanent seat, according to a charter sent to prospective members. “It's hard not to read this as an attempt to establish a precedent in Gaza that could be used elsewhere in terms of saying that Trump is going to be calling the global shots here, and you either fall in line or you're not part of the process,” said Julien Barnes-Dacey, director of the Middle East and North Africa program at the European Council on Foreign Relations.

The largely peaceful protests intensified after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency officer shot and killed Reneé Good, a Minneapolis mother, after an encounter. “If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of ICE who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT,” Trump wrote last Thursday morning on Truth Social, adding that the move would “quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great state.” He has already alerted 1,500 troops in Alaska for possible deployment to Minnesota. If he does it, the action will certainly face legal challenges. Occasional acts of violence do not an insurrection make. But don't bet on the Supreme Court to block Trump from invoking the law. Before this court, the bottom line is that Trump usually wins. Americans have been traditionally uncomfortable with the use of the military for domestic law enforcement. Granted, the law gives the president power to deploy troops in an emergency. Trump tried it with the National Guard in Chicago but was shot down by the Supreme Court because of the statutory requirement of showing that “regular forces,” namely the military, would not be effective in executing the law. Does Trump see the deployment of the military in Minnesota as a dress rehearsal for the armed forces policing key polling places to intimidate voters and seize voting machines? A slippery slope is always dangerous, and a slippery slope from a fragile democracy to a malignant authoritarianism is a real red flag for all of us.

Interview with Richard Young, CEO, i-80 GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-tsxiau-production-path-to-200000-ounces-8586Recording date: 16th January 2026Nevada-based i-80 Gold is executing an ambitious three-phase development plan to transform from a small producer into a mid-tier gold company, targeting production growth from under 50,000 ounces annually to over 600,000 ounces within six years. All five projects are brownfield developments at historic Nevada mines, offering reduced execution risk through existing permits and infrastructure.The company delivered five preliminary economic assessments in Q1 2025 and has raised approximately $300 million toward a targeted $900 million to $1 billion recapitalisation. Management expects to complete balance sheet restructuring by end of Q1 2026, which will enable full construction approval for the critical Lone Tree autoclave refurbishment project.The Lone Tree facility refurbishment represents a cornerstone investment, with total capital costs of approximately $430 million and completion scheduled for end of 2027. Once operational, the facility is projected to produce 200,000 ounces annually and generate $200-400 million in EBITDA at current gold prices. i-80 Gold will be one of only two companies operating an autoclave in Nevada.Project economics have improved substantially with higher gold prices. At $3,000 gold, the net asset value of the five projects was approximately $5 billion versus the company's current market capitalization of $1.3 billion fully diluted. At current gold prices above $4,600, NAV is estimated between $8-10 billion, with all-in sustaining costs averaging approximately $1,400 per ounce.The company has significantly strengthened its technical team and is advancing feasibility studies for multiple underground mines including Archimedes and Granite Creek. Management is also accelerating work on Mineral Point, the flagship asset capable of producing 300,000 ounces over a 17-year mine life, pulling development forward by approximately two years.Operating exclusively in Nevada provides advantages including world-class geology, skilled workforce, supportive regulatory environment, and the current macro environment featuring high gold prices without corresponding input cost inflation.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Remember when building a luxury Ritz-Carlton tower in downtown Portland seemed like a brilliant idea? Fast forward to 2026, and we've got a 50% fire sale on units that can't even move at half price. What could go wrong with $7.85 million condos surrounded by open-air drug markets, zombie mini-marts, and streets you wouldn't walk at night?We're breaking down how this 460-foot skyscraper went from Portland's luxury flagship to an absolute albatross—with one-bedrooms slashed from $1.2M to $600K, two-bedrooms cut from $2.6M to $1M, and three-bedrooms gutted from $3.3M to $1.6M. Only 11 of 130+ units sold, and the lender is desperate to move inventory. We'll walk through the dystopian street-level reality, the appraiser's brutal analysis showing units priced 3.7X higher than downtown averages, and why even world-class finishes can't overcome external obsolescence when your neighborhood features hypodermic needles and human feces.Is this a buying opportunity or the perfect case study in timing over location?

One year after the LA fires and only 13% of homes have rebuilding permits—yet investors are already scooping up 40% of the vacant lots that hit the market. What could go wrong? We dive into the mess that is LA's post-fire reality: homeowners trapped by underinsurance, bureaucratic permitting nightmares that'll stretch into the next decade, and investors circling like vultures while residents desperately try to hold onto their neighborhoods. Meanwhile, Rick Caruso is calling out "Firegate"—alleging the city deliberately altered after-action reports to shield Mayor Bass and the fire department from accountability. Remember when they told us the water reservoirs were full and the hydrants would work? How'd that turn out?Are we really surprised that people are selling when the rebuild timeline is measured in years, not months? Is anyone shocked that the city might be covering up its failures? When you're paying double mortgages, living in rentals, and watching permits move at government speed, selling that $600K lot starts looking pretty good. They don't want you to know how badly this was mismanaged. Should we expect accountability, or just more excuses?Hit that subscribe button and join the conversation. Let's expose what they're trying to hide. Like, share, and let me know your thoughts below!

I walk straight into it." Dropping Bombs welcomes Phil Crescenzo, the mortgage guy builders and realtors call when deals are on life support. With 25+ years of experience, Phil is renowned as the expert who saves deals others abandon, helping builders meet quotas and families secure their dream homes. He exposes broken industry "norms," showing how a small raise or credit tweak can turn a $350K denial into a $600K approval. You'll hear how he turned ditch-digging into discipline, survived the housing crashes, and built a team that trains underdogs into six-figure killers. If you're a buyer, builder, or agent sick of excuses, this conversation proves why Phil's phone rings when nobody else can close. Tap in to rethink everything you thought you knew about lending—and take action before your deal dies.
Donald Trump's recent Fox News interview with Laura Ingraham was supposed to be a softball, but matters quickly headed south when the President tried to defend bringing in 600,000 Chinese students to keep U.S. universities financially afloat, despite previously labeling China a major threat. Ingraham pushed back on Trump's claim that cutting those students would cause "half the colleges in the United States to go out of business." The comment also sparked outrage among his MAGA supporters, who saw it as a betrayal of his "America First" platform. Critics across conservative circles, including Nick Fuentes and former Trump loyalists, blasted him for prioritizing foreign interests, expanding H-1B visas, and embracing globalist economic logic. Jimmy frames the interview as a catastrophic misstep that alienated Trump's base and exposed a widening rift between his rhetoric and his policies. Plus segments on Ingraham also questioning Trump about supporting the H1-B program, Trump's gaslighting about inflation, his long-fogotten pledge to fix the healthcare system and newly released texts that raise serious questions about why the Charlie Kirk crime scene was paved over so quickly. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan examines President Trump's defense of his plan to double the number of Chinese students in America, Beijing's latest moves to weaponize rare earth minerals, the deepening conflicts in Gaza and Guinea, and how Sweden's cultural war on assimilation mirrors the decline of the West. He closes with promising new medical breakthroughs on Alzheimer's, cancer, heart rhythm, and anxiety. Trump Defends 600,000 Chinese Student Visas: President Trump told Fox News that Chinese students keep American colleges solvent, calling the plan "a business decision." Critics, including Laura Ingraham, warned that Chinese nationals pose espionage and bioweapon risks, while Trump insisted, "MAGA was my idea — I know what MAGA wants better than anybody else." Bryan argues the move exposes Trump's blind spot: treating adversaries as business partners instead of ideological foes. China's Rare Earth Slowdown: Xi Jinping is quietly delaying rare earth export licenses for U.S. buyers, especially those tied to military contracts, while expanding Chinese control of mines in Brazil and Central Asia. Bryan warns that "Beijing seeks domination, not cooperation — we can never trust China on anything." Gaza, Guinea, and the Global Chessboard: Trump's Pentagon is exploring a new base near Gaza to support a 10,000-member Arab stabilization force, while King Abdullah of Jordan says no Arab nation wants to "touch that mission." In Africa, China now controls the world's largest iron-ore mine in Guinea, giving it leverage to flood global steel markets and crush Western industry. Sweden's Self-Destruction: Leftist mayors in Sweden argue that native Swedes must integrate with Arab migrants, not the other way around. Bryan calls it "civilizational suicide" and a warning for America's future: "When a culture stops believing in itself, it dies." Good News in Medicine: Scientists report that NAD⁺ supplements may reverse Alzheimer's symptoms, a high-fiber diet improves melanoma survival, coffee may reduce A-Fib risk, and choline — found in salmon and eggs — helps ease anxiety. Bryan calls it "proof that science, faith, and common sense can still work together." "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Chinese student visas Fox News, Laura Ingraham MAGA debate, China rare earth exports Xi Jinping, Gaza stabilization force Jordan Abdullah, Guinea Simandou iron mine Rio Tinto, Sweden migrant assimilation debate, NAD Alzheimer's research, coffee A-Fib study, choline anxiety nutrient
