Send us Fan MailAttorney Greg Joseph joined Liz Collin on her podcast to talk about a new lawsuit headed to the Minnesota Supreme Court that aims to take down the wall of secrecy surrounding absentee ballots — and who decides whether your vote counts or not.Joseph, who represents the Minnesota Voters Alliance, explained how "cities and counties are exercising local authority in areas where they don't have any local authority to exercise" and that "the guidance that the Secretary of State provided to all these cities and counties across Minnesota is bad guidance."Support the show

On Thursday's "Dan O'Donnell Show," Dan demands an FBI investigation into the City of Milwaukee's handling of absentee ballots after new evidence debunks their initial explanations that it was impossible to tell a worker exported audit data instead of the actual votes late Tuesday night.

Host Charlie James opens the segment by reflecting on Mark Sanford's 2019 symbolic presidential primary challenge against Donald Trump, using it to criticize establishment Republicans for lacking a genuine fighting spirit. James argues that conservative voters want leaders who actively fight for their platform—such as passing the SAVE America Act and eliminating the Senate filibuster—rather than yielding to Democrats or giving up on key legislation. He praises senators who refuse to support a Senate recess until legislative goals are met, while calling out Senator Tim Scott for not joining them. Later in the segment, caller Larry from Spartanburg reminds listeners that today is the deadline to request an absentee ballot for the upcoming South Carolina special Senate primary, advising voters to submit or hand-deliver their ballots promptly to ensure they are processed on time.

This special episode of Focus: Black Oklahoma, Notarizing Democracy: Why Oklahoma Makes Absentee Voters Take an Extra Step is our second quarterly Snapshot story for 2026. We took you to the Admiral corridor for the first installment, when we explored Mental Health on the Margins.This time, our focus is elections. We wanted to explore one part of the process that feels pretty unique to Oklahoma. One that makes voting for the U.S. president, a U.S. Senator, a state legislator, or county district attorney, feel different here than it does in other states.That's why this show is about absentee ballots—and, in particular, the fact that if you're going to mail yours in, you have to get it notarized first.Nick Alexandrov spent the past several months reporting this story for Focus: Black Oklahoma.This special episode of Focus: Black Oklahoma is part of a larger quarterly effort from Oklahoma media covering voting and elections.

Voters can start casting their ballots Friday in the Minnesota primary election. Absentee voting starts 46 days before any election in Minnesota and you can cast an absentee ballot by mail or in person. Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon says voters don't need an excuse to vote absentee. The primary election is Aug. 11.A government transparency organization has filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security to release records connected to Operation Metro Surge this winter. The Forum for Constitutional Rights and Government Accountability requested documents and records back in January and hopes to release the documents to the public so citizens can understand the actions of the federal government.Beginning next week, Minnesotans will see new pop ups on social media sites warning about potential harms. It's a change lawmakers made in 2025, citing concerns about ill effects for young people. The Special Olympics USA Games wrap up Friday in the Twin Cities. The closing ceremony will take place at Huntington Bank Stadium and is free and open to the public. Tickets are required and can be claimed online and on site. Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve will be inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame Saturday. Reeve is the ninth player or coach from the Lynx to be inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Tenn.

I get a lot of messages in from the website. I don't always answer, but I do read them all. When I feel like I have something to say, I answer. Or I write an episode about it. In today's episode, I want to answer the question, why am I so reluctant. Part of the answer has to do with the importance of intellectual role models in our lives. CreditsHost: R.T.

Why Your Mailing List Matters More Than Your Postcard DesignYou could have the most beautiful postcard in the world — stunning design, compelling copy, perfect call to action — and still get zero results if it's going to the wrong people. In this episode, we make the case that direct mail success in real estate isn't a design problem. It's a targeting problem.The big idea is simple but often ignored: relevance beats reach. Sending a generic mailer to an entire zip code is what the speaker calls "spray and pray" — and it's one of the most common and costly mistakes agents make. The fix isn't spending more on mail. It's spending smarter on the right list.We walk through six specific groups that consistently outperform broad geographic blasts. First are predictive "likely to list" audiences — homeowners identified through data analytics based on length of ownership, life stage, and equity, who are statistically more likely to sell in the near future. Then absentee owners — landlords and investors who may be quietly done with the headaches of property management and ready to cash out.We also cover expired listings, a goldmine of motivated sellers who already raised their hand once and just need a better strategy and a more compelling agent. And FSBOs — homeowners who set out to sell on their own and are starting to realize how much they underestimated the process.Beyond cold audiences, we dig into the two warm lists every agent should be mailing consistently: their sphere of influence — past clients and personal connections who already trust them — and a defined neighborhood farm where long-term brand building creates the kind of hyper-local authority that compounds over time.The throughline across all six: stop mailing randomly and start mailing intentionally. When your message lands in the hands of someone already thinking about a move, everything changes.

Today from SDPB - two perspectives on AI use in universities and the workforce, information about absentee runoff voting in Sioux Falls and more.

Host Tara addresses the intense fallout surrounding a horrific, widely shared video of an attack in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She calls out UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Australian media for targeting Elon Musk over the viral footage rather than confronting underlying immigration flaws. Tara exposes Starmer's newly proposed tech crackdowns, including a mandatory digital ID to access the internet and aggressive software scans of citizens' personal devices. Shifting to US politics, she breaks down a new executive order from President Trump targeting the US Postal Service, designed to block the transport of mass-mailed absentee ballots unless a state provides full transparency of its internal voter rolls. > Belfast riots, Elon Musk censorship, Keir Starmer digital ID, Online Safety Act, UK surveillance laws, mass-mail ballots, Trump executive order, independent political commentary

Absentee ballots for the primaries must be ready to be issued to voters on June 25. MIRS interviews U.S. Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow, the Royal Oak state senator running in a high-intensity Democratic primary. How does McMorrow plan to amplify her name ID with absentee voting about to begin soon? Also, she talks about believing folks who pay for their X accounts should disclaim when they're posting AI-generated content (9:20).  MIRS also catches up with Ryan Hundt, the chief executive officer of the Michigan Works! Association. His association anticipates a $75 million to $90 million funding gap between support that lawmakers have proposed and what Michigan Works! will need to help Medicaid enrollees meet new federal workforce requirements (24:45). 

Dan opened the session by noting that a billion-dollar Prairie farming operation had entered creditor protection -- and that nearly 40 farms were in or near distress that year. Robert Andjelic had received roughly 40 calls from farms across Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and elsewhere, all with a common thread: lenders were tightening, some operators could not access input credit, and they wanted to sell land and rent it back while keeping their equipment running and their family farming. Robert completed four of those transactions. He was direct about the others: they either did not fit his land criteria or could not be executed on terms that made sense. The session poll showed roughly half the room believed the current stress is both structural and cyclical -- a hard stretch exposing cracks that were already forming. Robert provided a compressed history of farm size in Canada, from 1925 when 10,000 acres was considered enormous, through the post-2000 acceleration driven by GPS auto-steer, massive air seeders, zero-till, low interest rates after 2008, normalized leasing, and aging operators. His conclusion: one modern operator now does what five to ten farm families previously required, and that trajectory will continue. Tim Hammond placed the hardest growth window at 2,500 to 6,000 acres -- the point where a family operation transitions from one set of implements to multiple, and from family labor to hired crews with all the human resource and financial management that demands. After 6,000, Tim argued, the next logical step is to think in enterprise pods -- another 6,000 acres, another labor module -- rather than organic farm growth. Robert's position: there is no correct size. He has tenants farming 1,000 acres who are as profitable as his 30,000-acre operators. His own loan-to-value sits below 24 percent because he built over 60 years when land was cheap. Cap rate on Prairie land purchased today: 1.5 to 3 percent, maybe 3.5 if the seller needs cash. He was blunt about marketing: "A lot of producers are very good at producing but they are shit poor in marketing," and that gap -- benchmarked by MNP at roughly $70 per acre -- is a large part of what separates farms that survive downturns from those that do not. The sharpest exchange of the session came when Dallas LeDuc joined. He is the fire chief of RM 44, a small rural municipality where Robert is likely the largest landowner. Dallas had recently stopped spraying to respond to a fire on land Robert owns. He argued that absentee landlords should pay a modestly higher property tax rate -- not punitive, maybe 10 to 15 percent higher -- to fund the fire trucks, training, and equipment that local volunteers maintain and use to protect land the landlords will never physically see. Robert's counter was structural: his tenants are local and respond to fires; making tax exceptions for agriculture creates red flags with institutional lenders; and the most important thing he does for Prairie producers is not visible -- it is the 12 to 13 years and more than $50,000 he has spent flying to Toronto to sit with bank decision-makers and explain to them that agricultural lending does not work like commercial real estate. His argument: when a lender in Toronto extends patience to a distressed farm instead of foreclosing, every producer in Western Canada benefits -- and no individual operator has the leverage to make that case to the head offices the way he can. Dallas was not persuaded. He closed with the line that his great-grandfather left France in 1904 to get away from doctors and lawyers owning the land, and he is afraid that is exactly where the Prairies are heading. Key Topics Farm credit stress in Western Canada 2026: nearly 40 farms in distress; Robert Andjelic received 40 calls from operators wanting to sell and rent back; completed 4 transactions Live session poll: roughly 50 percent of audience said the current crisis is both structural and cyclical History of farm scale in Canada: 1925 to today -- from 10,000 acres enormous to 50,000-plus now common What drove post-2000 farm growth: GPS auto-steer, massive air seeders, zero-till, post-2008 low interest rates, aging operators, normalized leasing Tim Hammond's growth framework: hardest growth is 2,500 to 6,000 acres; after 6,000, think in enterprise pods Robert Andjelic's cap rate reality: Prairie land bought today yields 1.5 to 3 percent; his own LTV is below 24 percent built over 60 years "A strategy is what you say no to" -- Tim Hammond on the discipline of farm scale decisions Marketing gap: roughly $70 per acre difference between producers who market well and those who do not (MNP benchmark referenced) Absentee landlord taxation debate: Dallas LeDuc (fire chief, RM 44) vs. Robert Andjelic -- rural community burden vs. capital market access argument Robert Andjelic's Toronto bank work: 12-13 years, $50,000+ in meetings, translating agriculture to commercial real estate lenders Kevin Hursh on retiring farmers: those who rail against big farms all their lives tend to sell to the biggest neighbour when retirement comes; breaking land into smaller parcels would give next-generation operators a chance Robert's macro thesis: higher commodity prices incoming due to Strait of Hormuz disruption, fertilizer supply constraints, and a potential super El Nino cycle Family farm vs. corporate model: Tim Hammond -- corporate farms must learn family commitment; family farms must learn corporate structure; the marriage of the two is the future Connect Kevin Hursh -- Western Producer columns; hursh.ca Robert Andjelic -- farmland.ca Dallas LeDuc -- Bunnyhug Farmers Podcast; TikTok growingthefuture.ca Register for the Convergence Conference at convergence.ag and stay updated by subscribing to the Growing the Future Podcast at growingthefuturepodcast.ca.

Greg Belfrage talks to listeners about Trump's statement that mail-in voting is cheating, but then he turns around and mails in his vote. Greg makes the point that military members are the only ones that should be allowed to do mail-in voting and Trump is commander in chief which is part of the military. Greg also talked about mail-in voting vs. absentee voting. Most agreed with Trump that mail-in voting was cheating and democrats wanted to keep it that way. However, multiple people supported Absentee voting. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1. Government Shutdown Impact TSA officers are required to work without pay due to a failure to pass a Department of Homeland Security funding bill. Over 50,000 TSA officers and 85,000 DHS employees are affected. Officers are promised back pay, but immediate financial strain is severe. 2. Staffing Shortages and Operational Disruption More than 300 TSA officers have quit since the shutdown began. Absentee rates increased from a normal 2–3% to around 10%, with some airports experiencing up to 20% staffing shortages. These shortages have led to long security lines, checkpoint delays, and potential closures. 3. Human and Financial Consequences TSA officers earn approximately $45,000–$60,000 annually, making missed paychecks financially devastating. Some officers reportedly rely on food banks, donations, or are sleeping in their cars. Morale among TSA workers is described as critically low. 4. Timing Worsens the Crisis The shutdown coincides with spring break, one of the busiest travel periods of the year. Airlines warn that continued staffing shortages could escalate into nationwide travel delays and security risks. 5. Airline and Public Response Major airlines (American, Delta, Southwest) have urged Congress to act immediately. Travelers express frustration over delays and uncertainty at airports. 6. Security Concerns The document warns that weakened airport security could endanger public safety. TSA staffing shortages are framed as especially dangerous amid heightened global tensions and recent attacks. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

There is a lot of talk about House Bill 5001: AN ACT CONCERNING ABSENTEE VOTING FOR ALL AND VARIOUS OTHER REFORMS TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF ELECTIONS.The bill would remove most restrictions on who can vote absentee and make several technical and procedural changes to how elections are run in the state. But some worry we will just see more election fraud issues like what we've seen in Bridgeport. We understood the bill more and talked about it with Rep.

Money Follows Speed: How Wendy (& Sean) Turned 34 Seller Contacts Into a New Absentee Owner Listing AND $1.1M Off Market Deal!Watch the full video replay: https://youtu.be/JkkiKtjJBCwIn this episode, the host shares a win from Wendy, a Listing Sprint participant who previously joined the inaugural Deal Sprint and followed a three-step blueprint: find a deal to use as bait, use it to reach out to buyers, and make offers on the bait or on other transactions for those buyers. Wendy reached out to 34 sellers while also attending Closers Cafe and was sourcing for a $1.4M buyer she had obtained through social posting or a networking group. From those 34, one response led to a neighbor planning to move, resulting in a call with the seller and a showing set for a likely $1.1M property. Wendy also contacted a prior client—a cash buyer with a duplex—leading Sean to meet him quickly and secure a listing expected to be signed for $350K, with the seller also mentioning openness to offers on a $3M home. The host emphasizes the mindset “money follows speed and time kills all deals,” encouraging immediate action when someone is ready to move. Additional context explains Wendy's approach of using a specific reason to reach out—off-market properties she and Sean had available—resulting in “no match, but landed the listing,” plus a $400K buyer consult scheduled around Easter. The episode reinforces that Lead Deck, the Deal Sprint, and the Listing Sprint are designed to drive activity so agents spend more time matching existing relationships and less time cold prospecting, with a reminder that business ebbs and flows may require returning to cold outreach. The host previews a potential next-month sprint focused on building a pipeline of senior owners to help members quickly rebuild an empty pipeline through a proven plan and strong implementation.The MOST POWERFUL Motivated Seller & Cash Buyer Software!

The “3 No's” Outreach Strategy for Absentee Owners (Turn Cold Real Estate Leads Into HOT Clients & Listings!)Watch the FULL video replay at: https://youtu.be/iHAskZHqjyQJosh explains a real estate outreach framework for absentee owners and investor targets: intentionally go for “3 no's” to uncover at least one “yes.” He outlines two paths. For active buyers (landlords, cash buyers, flippers) he suggests leading with a simple deal “bait,” then clarifying whether they're not interested in the specific deal or not buying at all, then asking if they have any properties they'd consider selling, and finally offering a monthly market update. For seller-focused absentee outreach (tired landlords, out-of-state owners, stacked with indicators like tax default or liens), he shares short text/email scripts asking if they'd consider selling a specific property in the next 30–90 days, then follows up by asking about other properties they might sell, and then whether they're looking to add to their portfolio. He shares results from sending about 20 emails and getting four replies (all initial “no's”), emphasizing that a reply is the win and that it's difficult to get three straight no's. A detailed example with an owner named Terrance shows two no's turning into a buying conversation and a potential land-buyer lead; Josh plans to clarify the buyer's multifamily/geographic criteria and to reach out to vacant land buyers for the owner's Harvey's Lake parcel. The discussion also covers asking builders to commit to listing with you after they build, and includes a suggested variation involving trading up/1031 exchange and tailoring messaging using portfolio data from LeadDeck.Would like a copy of the doc shared?

Many veterinary professionals struggle with a quiet but exhausting problem: absentee guilt. Whether it's calling out sick, taking a vacation, or stepping away for personal time, being “off” rarely feels fully off. In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, dig into why stepping away from the clinic can feel so uncomfortable—and why that discomfort matters. They unpack how guilt becomes normalized in veterinary culture, how leadership behaviors shape expectations around availability, and why clinics that rely too heavily on a single person are setting everyone up for stress. The conversation covers sick days, establishing (and maintaining) personal boundaries while on vacation, handling unexpected after-hours texts, and the long-term risks of building practice systems that break down when a certain team member is absent. This episode offers a practical perspective for veterinarians, technicians, managers, and owners who want healthier boundaries without sacrificing patient care or team trust. The takeaway is clear: protecting time off isn't selfish, it's necessary for sustainability, safety, and staying in the profession long term #VeterinaryViewfinder #VetMedLife #VetTeamWellbeing #VeterinaryBurnout #ClinicCulture
