This Week: The state of Florida has distinguished itself in recent years as a true laboratory for right wing extremist policy in education. Well, the process continues as the impacts of vouchers and efforts to privatize public education are reaching new heights. As schools battle for “market share” and districts sell access to courses on an Amazon-like website, the public coffers are being drained faster than ever before. Meanwhile, in so-called liberal California, amidst the passage of AB 715, which conflates critique of Israel with Antisemitism and instills a draconian oversight structure over schools and educators, Oakland Unified is found to have created a “discriminatory environment” for things like the display of Palestinian flags, allowing an unsponsored a teach-in about Israeli genocide and colonialism, and posting “Free Palestine” posters in classrooms. Thankfully, the fight is not over on AB 715. The American-Arab Anti Discrimination Committee is filing a federal lawsuit to challenge the constitutionality of the law, which violates first Amendment rights, and could have an extreme chilling effect on educators' ability to teach truthfully about the genocide in Palestine and the actions of the Israeli government. At the same time, the law ignores the rising tide of right wing antisemitism brewing among influencers with millions of followers, many who are teenagers sitting in American high schools.  MAXIMUM WOKENESS ALERT -- get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!

A new survey from Orlando Health shows that more than a third of men in the U.S. say they would rather do pretty much anything than talk about their prostate health. Medical experts warn that avoiding discussions with your doctor about prostate health can lead to delayed diagnosis and treatment for a condition that more than half of men over 50 are affected by. There is now a new minimally invasive treatment for enlarged prostates that has a faster recovery rate with longer lasting results. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Dr. Jay Amin, urologist at Orlando Health Medical Group Urology, who urges men to have open conversations about their prostate health, and tells us more about the new procedure. ⁠ Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To Follow 'The FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition' Learn more about your ad choices.

Artificial intelligence's rapid rise is causing anxiety for many, as it is already transforming the way we live and work. The concern is particularly high among young generations, who are wondering how it will change the labor market in the coming decades. But parents are also seeing the dangers AI and chatbots can pose as their children become more familiar with the technology. Jamie Metzl, a technology futurist and author of "Superconvergence: How the Genetics, Biotech, and AI Revolutions Will Transform Our Lives, Work, and World," recently spoke with FOX News Rundown's Lisa Brady to discuss AI and address some of the issues that make Americans nervous. Metzl delves into AI's evolution from its origins to today's consumer applications, and how future advancements may lead to job losses, reduced privacy, and even safety risks. He also talks about the good it can bring, especially in medicine. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with AI expert Jamie Metzl. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Brad and Dan unpack the historic election of Zohran Mamdani as Mayor of New York City and the predictable right-wing meltdown that followed, complete with claims that he's somehow both too weak to lead and an existential threat to America. The hosts explore what this reaction says about the American right's obsession with demographic change, the symbolism of Mamdani's win for younger voters, and the generational shift redefining leadership in U.S. politics. They also dig into the backlash against young women voters, who showed up in huge numbers for progressive candidates across multiple states. Brad and Dan play clips from conservative pundits lamenting women's “suicidal empathy” and even calling for the repeal of the 19th Amendment. The episode rounds out with sharp analysis of Democratic wins in Virginia and New Jersey, key court rulings, and local policy fights, ending on an optimistic note about the growing momentum for justice and accountability.

Despite spending millions to elevate other candidates and other efforts to curb the momentous rise of Zohran Mamdani, Wall Street's biggest names were unable to stop the democratic socialist from winning Tuesday's New York City mayoral election. His platform, which included free buses, expanded childcare, and city-run grocery stores, he promised would be paid for with a 2% tax on millionaires and other business tax increases. All things that made Wall Street uneasy. Michael Lee, the founder of Michael Lee Strategies, joins FOX Business to discuss Mamdani's victory and how anxiety over artificial intelligence and the future job market has made the New York City mayor-elect's campaign appealing to young people. Lee also weighs in on how the record-long government shutdown is affecting the economy and everyday consumers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It's election week in the U.S., and while many eyes are on the polls, we're revisiting a conversation that reminds us why voting matters in the first place. In this rebroadcast, Yale Law professor Owen Fiss reflects on his work enforcing the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts, the courts' role in protecting democracy, and why casting a ballot remains both a privilege and a duty. ----- After 50 years as a professor at Yale Law School, Owen Fiss says his students are still idealistic and passionate about the rights won in the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965. As a young lawyer in the late 1960s, Fiss worked with the Department of Justice to implement those laws. A classroom discussion in the spring of 2020 prompted him to draw upon his legal expertise and decades of experience to produce his new book, Why We Vote.  In this episode of The Modern Law Library podcast, Fiss speaks with the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles about the paradox of the court system–the least democratic branch of government–having the responsibility of safeguarding the right to vote. He looks back on his work with the DOJ in southern states, and his time as a clerk for Justice Thurgood Marshall (then on the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York) and Justice William Brennan.  Rawles and Fiss also discuss recent threats to the electoral system and right to vote, including the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. Fiss shares his thoughts about Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, and whether former President Donald Trump should be removed from the ballot on that basis.  While every book he writes is for his students, Fiss says, he hopes Why We Vote can impress upon a broader audience the privilege and duty of voting and participating in a democracy.

Voters in New Jersey and Virginia went to the polls yesterday to elect their next governor, while in New York City, residents decided who would be the next mayor of America's largest city. In all three key elections, the Democratic candidate won. In New York City, self-described socialist Zohran Mamdani is the new mayoral elect, sparking significant reaction across the country. Republican Strategist and founding partner at South and Hill Strategies, Colin Reed, joined the Rundown to break down last night's results and what they could mean heading into the 2026 Midterm Elections next year.  Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, who has a decades-long public career as a White House Chief of Staff, Republican Congressman, Defense Secretary, White House chief, and one of the most powerful American Vice Presidents ever, has died at age 84. Fox News contributor and former Senior Advisor to President George W. Bush, Karl Rove, reflects on the life and legacy of Vice President Cheney and how they became friends working together in the Bush administration.

Zohran Mamdani's historic win as New York City's first Muslim mayor member of the Democratic Socialists of America has gotten a lot of reaction from all political sides. Mamdani was just one of nearly twenty other Democrats that ran pushing socialist policies. Recent polls finds two-thirds of Democrats view socialism favorably, while fewer than half say the same now of capitalism. FOX's John Saucier speaks with Mike Emanuel, chief White House correspondent for FOX News and host of the FOX News Rundown' podcast, who says the results will be studied by both parties for future election strategies.

President Trump has put Nigeria on notice, saying they must protect their population of Christians from the slaughter by jihadists. The White House and other watchdog organizations say tens of thousands of Christians have been killed over the last several years. Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to discuss what action must be taken to protect Christians in Nigeria and whether military action would be necessary.

It is Election Day, and while each race in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City has featured issues unique to its area, this off-year election cycle is getting a lot of national attention. Part of that is because of President Trump's influence on all three contests and what their outcomes may tell us about 2026 and 2028. Co-host of America's Newsroom, Bill Hemmer, joins the Rundown to break down all three races, the surging popularity of New York City mayoral candidate Democrat Zohran Mamdani, and whether victory by him may suggest a real shift for the Democratic party. California voters are deciding on “Proposition 50” today, a measure that could push back against a mid-decade redistricting effort seen in several GOP-led states. It marks the latest chapter in the ongoing national battle over how political maps are drawn and whether those efforts will remain with changing administrations. Bruce Mehlman, founder of his own bipartisan government relations firm, joins the Rundown to explain how both parties have used gerrymandering to gain political advantage, why achieving truly bipartisan redistricting is so difficult, and how these tactics are fueling a broader loss of public trust in government.

Episode 4897: Driving A Mack Truck through The 22nd Amendment; Mamdani's Illegal Citizenship

David Waldman, drinking his throat tea by the quart, doesn't hold back on today's KITM:  Greg Dworkin prepares us today for his Wednesday post-vote analysis. Virginia is for lovers, not haters, yet Gops kinda love to hate. Antisemitic hate is loved by the Gop, not by those that the Gop hates. SNL understood the NYC mayoral debate as if they were locals.  Ha ha! Oh, well. That's Our Trump!™ Donald K. Trump took a break from his achieving that perfect balance between Tsar Nicholas II and Tony Montana on his new fancy crapper, then flew down to Perv-a-Lago for a Great Gatsby/Cabaret/Marie Antoinette Night O' Sleaze. Then it was time for Donald to watch his conquering return to 60 Minutes in order to make sure that the editors took good care of him. 73 minutes cut down to 27 left a more highly polished turd, still filled with the usual Trump golden kernels of impeachable confessions and casual idiocy, always with the promise of more and worse to come.  Generally, brown people, especially those sitting on oil, better watch out.  Trump sees your 25th Amendment and reveals that his whole operation revolves around his cluelessness. Autopen is his alibi! Let them execute the rest for war crimes, Trump is just too plain stupid to hang. Anyhow, all those Venezuelans aren't being killed by missiles, they're being killed by loopholes. 

In an uncommon political move, New York Republican Congressman Nick Langworthy is endorsing former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo for New York City Mayor. He tells the Rundown why he believes Cuomo is the only candidate who can defeat Zohran Mamdani and prevent what he calls a dangerous turn for the city. Langworthy also explains how state leaders in Albany could limit a Mamdani administration's power over issues like taxes, rent, and mass transit, and he shares his thoughts on the ongoing government shutdown in Washington. With Election Day just hours away, new polls show Democrats gaining momentum while Republicans look to pull off an upset. FOX News Decision Desk Director Arnon Mishkin joins the Rundown to discuss how President Trump has changed voter turnout trends, the key dynamics shaping the New Jersey and Virginia governor's races, and why affordability remains a top issue heading into the 2026 midterms.

Tomorrow is election day in New York City, and Zohran Mamdani is leading comfortably in most polls. Mamdani has been the frontrunner since winning the Democratic primary this summer. He promises higher taxes on the rich and a housing reform plan that includes a rent freeze. Critics argue that these policies will hurt landlords, discourage new investment and development projects, and encourage some wealthy residents to leave the city. Real estate agents in upstate New York, Connecticut, and other states, like Florida, claim they're already fielding calls from nervous New Yorkers considering a move. FOX Business Real Estate Contributor and host of Mansion Global on FOX Business Prime, Katrina Campins, speaks with Lydia Hu about the so-called “Mamdani Effect” and the national trend of Americans leaving Blue States for low-taxed Red Ones.

You'll often hear people refer to "the day after Thanksgiving" as the "official" start of the Christmas shopping season. However, it's increasingly more like the day after Halloween, as holiday promotions and sales are already underway by then. By Black Friday, many items are already checked off Christmas lists.

This Day in Legal History: Elk v. WilkinsOn November 3, 1884, the U.S. Supreme Court decided Elk v. Wilkins, ruling that Native Americans were not automatically U.S. citizens under the Constitution. The case involved John Elk, a Native American who had left his tribal affiliation and tried to register to vote in Omaha, Nebraska. He argued that by assimilating into American society and residing outside his tribe, he had placed himself under U.S. jurisdiction and thus should be granted citizenship under the 14th Amendment. The Court disagreed, holding that Native Americans born into tribal nations were not “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States in the sense required by the 14th Amendment unless naturalized through an act of Congress.This decision legally excluded Native Americans from the rights and protections afforded to other Americans, including the right to vote and equal protection under the law. It reinforced a system in which Native identity and U.S. citizenship were treated as mutually exclusive. While the Dawes Act of 1887 later allowed certain Native Americans to obtain citizenship by accepting land allotments and assimilating, this was a piecemeal and coercive process. True universal birthright citizenship for Native Americans was not granted until 1924, with the passage of the Indian Citizenship Act, which declared all Native Americans born in the U.S. to be citizens.The Elk decision underscores the deep contradictions in American legal history regarding sovereignty, race, and citizenship, and it illustrates how constitutional protections were unequally applied. It remains a key moment in understanding the legal marginalization of Indigenous peoples in the United States.Daniel Ginzburg, a solo practitioner based in New Jersey, will argue his first case before the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday, going up against renowned litigator Lisa Blatt. Ginzburg, who runs his practice with just a laptop and Dropbox, turned down offers from major law firms—including Blatt's own—to retain control over the case and seize the rare opportunity to appear before the justices. His case centers on a procedural issue: whether a default judgment entered against his client, Coney Island Auto Parts, by a Tennessee bankruptcy court should be vacated due to lack of personal jurisdiction.The underlying dispute involves a $48,696 debt related to bankruptcy proceedings filed by Vista-Pro Automotive in 2014. Ginzburg argues that the judgment was void from the start, but the Sixth Circuit denied relief, ruling his client's challenge came too late—a position that conflicts with other federal appellate courts. This circuit split helped pave the way for Supreme Court review.Ginzburg, who emigrated from the former Soviet Union and graduated from St. John's School of Law, took the case on a contingency basis after years of litigation. Despite the steep odds and high-profile opposition, he has spent months preparing, including mock arguments with law professors. Blatt, representing the bankruptcy trustee, argues that Ginzburg's client had years to object and failed to act in time.Ginzburg remains focused on the procedural integrity of the system, saying his motivation is simple: “I wanted to win.” Yet even if successful, the case could be remanded for further proceedings in bankruptcy court.NJ Solo Practitioner to Face Lisa Blatt in Supreme Court DebutFBI Director Kash Patel forced out a senior official, Steven Palmer, who oversaw the bureau's aviation operations, shortly after online scrutiny emerged over Patel's use of an FBI jet to attend a personal event. Patel's trip to State College, Pennsylvania—where his girlfriend, country singer Alexis Wilkins, performed the national anthem—was revealed through publicly accessible flight data and Patel's own social media posts. Following the media attention, Palmer, a 27-year FBI veteran and acting head of the Critical Incident Response Group (CIRG), was told to resign or be fired. Though FBI directors are required to use government aircraft for security reasons, the optics of Patel's travel sparked criticism, especially given his past remarks condemning similar behavior by former directors.Palmer's firing marks the third leadership ouster within CIRG under Patel, reinforcing a pattern of high-level dismissals since his appointment. His predecessor, Brian Driscoll, is among a group of former officials suing the administration for allegedly retaliatory terminations tied to perceived political disloyalty. The FBI's leadership page now lists Devin Kowalski, previously head of the San Juan office, as the new CIRG chief—a change that was reportedly planned before the jet controversy. Patel's spokesman defended the director's travel practices as compliant and cost-conscious, dismissing criticism as politically motivated.FBI Ousts Leader as Patel Fumes Over Attention to Agency Jet UseA federal judge in Rhode Island has ordered the Trump administration to immediately resume food assistance payments under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), despite an ongoing government shutdown. Judge John J. McConnell ruled that full benefits must be paid by Monday or, at the very least, partial payments must begin by Wednesday. He criticized the administration's refusal to use $5.25 billion in congressionally approved contingency funds, calling the decision arbitrary and emphasizing the irreparable harm caused by payment delays to millions of low-income Americans.The administration had claimed it lacked authority to distribute the funds during the shutdown, which began on October 1, but McConnell rejected this argument. He noted that Trump himself had previously issued guidance during his first term stating that contingency funds could be used in such scenarios. In a Truth Social post, Trump said he does not want Americans to go hungry and directed his lawyers to seek clarity on funding SNAP legally, which the judge cited approvingly in his order.In addition to the Rhode Island case, another federal judge in Boston ruled similarly in a separate lawsuit brought by 25 Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia, saying the administration was wrong to assert it couldn't use contingency funds. The USDA previously warned it may not have enough money to cover November benefits, which cost up to $9 billion monthly. Judge McConnell suggested the agency could also tap into a separate $23 billion fund if needed.Trump administration must pay food aid benefits within days, judge says | Reuters This is a public episode.

A lawsuit has been filed and the first hearing is on November 5, a day after the election.Article XII of the Virginia Constitution describes how that document can be changed. Section 1 explains that both houses of the General Assembly must first adopt a resolution. Then an election has to take place in the House of Delegates. Then the General Assembly has to vote on the resolution a second time before it goes to the voters in a referendum.Amendments to the Virginia Constitution are fairly common with the last one approved by voters in 2024. Over 92 percent of the electorate approved a proposal to extend tax exemptions to spouses of soldiers killed in the line of duty.In 2020, two-thirds of the electorate voted to establish an eight member Virginia Redistricting Commission which would take over the process of establishing legislative districts from the General Assembly.In the final week of October 2025, Republicans argued in committee meetings and from the House and Senate floor that this amendment counters the will of the people. Democrats argued the step is necessary to counter a presidency that is acting beyond its power by asking other states to change their rules.This story covers the Virginia Senate debate on October 31.For more background, go back and read these two stories:* Virginia General Assembly has begun consideration of Congressional redistricting during special session, October 29, 2025* Constitutional amendment for Virginia redistricting passes House, awaits action in Senate, October 31, 2025The Senate took up House Joint Resolution 6007 the Friday morning of Halloween. The day before, the Senate Privileges and Elections Committee approved the amendment on an 8 to 6 vote.Before the full debate, there were three requests to amend the resolution including one from Senator Christoper Head that would have required the mid-Census boundary change to go through the Virginia Redistricting Commission. Those failed on partisan lines, and three Republican members were not present.A long debate over the resolution kicked off when Senator Aaron Rouse (D-22) made a motion for its adoption. He said the amendment would give Virginians a chance to weigh in with their vote on whether the lines should be redrawn.“We do see evidence that the system is being rigged by a wannabee dictator out of Washington,” Rouse said. “During this Republican shutdown we've seen this dictator be enabled by a coequal but separate branch of government. Virginians may have something to say about that.”Senator Schuyler VanValkenburg (D-16) was one of the patrons for the Constitutional amendment that set up the Virginia Redistricting Commission. He said Republican claims that the amendment would eliminate the body are false.“That's not what this is and that's not what we're doing,” VanValkenburg said. “Today we are taking a truly proportional response to an extreme situation. The current outbreak of opportunistic mid-decade redistricting means that we are in a truly unprecedented, Constitutional norm breaking time.”Senator Glen Sturtevant (R-12) said the resolution is a betrayal of voters in part because over a million people had already voted.“That's not reform, that's reversal,” Sturtevant said. “It's not transparency, it's a power grab. It's been rushed. It's been secretive. And it is purposely timed to avoid accountability in this election.”Senator J.D. “Danny” Diggs (R-24) said the Constitution is intended to be updated every ten years to accommodate for population shifts.“This amendment is being proposed not to protect our citizens or to make our government better,” Diggs said. “This amendment is about increasing the political power of the Democrat party. It has an expiration date so that if the political winds change, the Republican party can't do the same thing in a few years.”Senator Luther Cifers (R-10), elected earlier this in a special election to replace John McGuire, took issue with Democrats advancing the process in late October, over a month after early voting had begun. Some voters might have changed vote if they had known the General Assembly would take this action.“It appears to be well-established that the intent of the intervening election in the Constitutional amendment process is so that voters can respond at the ballot box between the two passages of an amending resolution,” Cifers said.Senator Christie New Craig (R-19) said the resolution is intended to advance national interests rather than those of Virginia's.“The timing of H.J. 6007, positioned as an urgent matter, was not authored based on constituent demands,” New Craig said. “It was authored based on instructions from national leadership.”Senator Mark Peake (R-22) echoed comments made by Delegate Lee Ware (R-72) during debate in the House of Delegates.“Texas embarking on a mid-decade redistricting was probably not a good idea but because they have embarked on that endeavor doesn't mean we have to engage in the endeavor,” Peake said.One argument made by Republicans is that the resolution does not pass legal muster because it doesn't follow language in state code that requires court clerks to post a public notice of a pending Constitutional amendment 90 days before an election. Senator Head said that has not been followed.“There's no way we can do this,” Head said. “I mean you can do this today. You're going to do this today. We know that you're going to do this today. It's going to get the 21 votes. You're going to pass it because you're not paying attention to what people are screaming about out there or any of the arguments that are valid that any of us are going to have made.”Senator Mamie Locke (D-23) said Republicans making arguments about her party taking national direction were hypocritical and they would be doing something similar if they controlled the General Assembly.“Be assured if the proverbial shoe was on the other foot, a directive from D.C. to the Governor would have been adhered to, quick, fast, and in a hurry to undo the Constitutional amendment in Virginia mid-stream and not one of you would be talking about the sanctity of the bipartisan redistricting commission or the needs of the voters or respect for the will of the people,” Locke said.Locke said the federal government has been transformed by executive orders from the White House which have been followed by Virginia's executive branch.Senator Barbara Favola (D-40) called the resolution one of hope that would give Virginia voters another opportunity to weigh in on a presidency that is bending the rules of the U.S. Constitution.“That's what this is,” Favola said. “We're not redrawing anything today. We're not doing anything magical. We're saying to voters, if this goes through the process we've laid out, and we've explained that multiple times, should the Constitutional amendment go to the voters, they will have the final say. We are in no way undermining the principles that all of us have stood for.”Senator Scott Surovell (D-34) said the resolution is necessary to combat an unprecedented attempt to change Congressional boundaries to keep Republicans in power no matter what.“This is a coordinated national strategy to grab power,” Surovell said. “The fundamental power problem that we are giving ourselves the option to address is that Virginia cannot fight with one hand tied behind its back.”Surovell said a mid-census redistricting is not ideal but is necessary to have as an option as more Republican-controlled states adjust their boundaries.“What do you do when one side refuses to play by the rules?” Surovell asked. “Do you maintain principles and accept defeat? Or do you recognize that preserving democracy sometimes requires tools you find distasteful to prevent permanent entrenchment of minority rule? We owe it to our constituents to have this conversation. We owe it to democracy to consider all of the options.”Soon after, the resolution was adopted 21 to 16. The Senate adjourned about an hour later.Now what? There's an election on Tuesday. There's always something to pay attention to.MaKshya Tolbert reads two poems from Shade is a PlaceThere are more stories about the mechanics of government coming up later in this edition of the program.

Should Washington voters trust the state to invest long-term care funds in the stock market? Bulwark Capital's Zach Abraham says that's laughable – but others support Amendment 8201.

In this episode, we are joined by Dalton Lackey and Teagan Murphy, co-authors of the article "The COVID-19 Murders": Prison death-worlds and the fatal convenience of crisis. Their work offers a piercing critique of how carceral institutions weaponized the pandemic—not as an unprecedented emergency, but as a tactical opportunity to deepen control, dehumanization, and death. We'll begin by hearing from Dalton and Teagan about their political motivations, the methodologies they employed, and the intellectual scaffolding behind their analysis. From there, we'll unpack their challenge to the dominant narrative of "failure"—a framing that presumes the prison system was simply overwhelmed by crisis. Instead, they argue that the pandemic revealed not incompetence, but calculated cruelty. We'll also examine how disaster operates as a tool of tactical evolution within prisons. As the authors write, "Rather than revealing entirely new challenges, our findings demonstrate how the pandemic instead exacerbates what the literature has suggested are the preexisting goals of carceral punishment." We'll discuss how incarcerated people themselves narrated these shifts—how they recognized the charade of "safety" and named the degradation that exceeded even the brutal norm. From psychic death and coerced docility to the punitive treatment of those living with HIV/AIDS, we'll trace the historical continuities and contemporary parallels that shape this death-world. We'll ask how social distancing protocols, meant to protect, instead expanded estrangement—and how preexisting conditions of confinement intensified the crisis. Teagan Murphy (any/all) is a PhD candidate in the Department of Sociology at the University of Maryland, College Park. Their research, conducted primarily through qualitative interviews, ethnography, and content analysis, focuses on institutional and carceral logics and the reproduction of inequities via narratives of deservingness. Their dissertation, which draws on data collected from their time as an active courtwatcher in Prince George's County, presents a critique of the distinction courts draw between criminalized defendants and "the community," resulting in a pretrial system where Black bodies are deemed public safety risks that antagonize the moral sanctity of white civil society. They also argue for a literary reframing of "courtwatching," moving from reformist interpretations to an antifascist one aligned with broader abolitionist goals. IG: @veganmurphy  Dalton Lackey (they/them) is a PhD candidate in Sociology at the University of Maryland, College Park. Their research broadly concerns structural anti-blackness, carcerality and punishment, revolutionary social movements, and Fanonian psychopolitics. Dalton is currently working on their dissertation project, which explores the complexities of invention and signification that emerge in the haze of radical collective action against the anti-black social order.

It has been over a month since the government shutdown began, and by Monday, it will be tied for the longest funding impasse in American history. Despite millions of Americans now facing a shortage of federal food assistance, both parties haven't budged since the shutdown began, and nothing has indicated that that will change anytime soon. FOX Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram gives the latest updates from Capitol Hill, from the likelihood of the government reopening in the coming week to what the political consequences of the shutdown might be for Congress and the current administration.  Later, Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters joins to analyze key local elections coming up in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia.

President Trump is weighing increased beef imports from Argentina to help bring down prices, but some U.S. cattle ranchers say the move could hurt American producers. President Trump says the move is to help the struggling nation and bring down prices here, but even ranchers who support the president and appreciate his tariffs on foreign cattle find this move a betrayal We recently spoke with Texas rancher Trent Simmons to discuss the state of the cattle industry, why some beef prices are so high, and why some ranchers oppose the new imports. Simmons also spoke about what solutions could lower prices without harming local farms.

Welcome back, wellness seekers, to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. I'm your host, Grandpa Bill. Today, we're moving beyond physical vitality and diving into cognitive fitness—the deep, integrated strength of the mind.As many of you know, I've been a dedicated student of Dr. Anthony Metivier's Magnetic Memory Method for years. This isn't just about passing a test; it's about building a robust, resilient mind. I've recently been mentoring my granddaughter, Adah, a college freshman, and her latest challenge has proven to be the most profound holistic exercise we've done: The Backward Walk from Metivier's advanced curriculum.Before we even begin the walk, we must remember the lesson of Peter of Ravenna. He taught us that our memory structures—our Palaces—must be real, finished, and stable. Adah chose her quiet church. This isn't superstition; it's holistic architecture. If your environment is chaotic, your mind will be chaotic. Ravenna demands a stable, moderate space so the mind can be still.Adah built four stations for her Political Science class, encoding the clauses of the 14th Amendment using PAO and the Major System. The images are striking—a Roller Skater laughing on a tight rope for Equal Protection, and the Tin Man dancing on noodles for Citizenship. They stir the emotions, as Ravenna instructed.The problem with the Forward Walk (Station 1 to 4) is that it's easy. It's a habit. Your brain is only saying, "Okay, I remember Station 1, so I'll automatically look for 2." This creates a weak, linear chain. If you forget Station 3, the rest of the chain breaks.The Backward Walk—from the end to the beginning—is the ultimate cognitive diagnostic tool.When I ask Adah to go Backward to the Beginning of the Memory Palace, I'm forcing her mind to do three things, each with massive holistic benefits:Dismantle the Chain: It proves that every piece of knowledge is directly and independently anchored to its specific Place, not to the piece before it. This promotes a non-linear, resilient thinking pattern, which is crucial for problem-solving in life, not just academia.Test the Architecture: By reversing the process, we expose any weak links or "clutter" in the Memory Palace—the very chaos Ravenna warned us against. If Adah hesitates between the Altar Rail and the Baptismal Font, we know the place wasn't truly mastered, and we must revisit the station distance or imagery.Achieve Deep Presence: Dr. Metivier always stresses the three-breath pause at each station. In the reverse walk, this pause is non-negotiable. It forces deep active recall and anchors you squarely in the present moment, turning a memory exercise into a powerful form of meditation and mental centering.Holistic healing isn't just about avoiding disease; it's about achieving mastery and calm. When Adah successfully sprints backward—from the Roller Skater back to the Tin Man—she doesn't just feel relieved; she feels profound confidence. She knows the information is integrated into the core of her mind.This ability to command your own knowledge, to retrieve information from any angle under pressure, is the ultimate antidote to mental stress and anxiety. It's about being the director of your mental theatre, not just an audience member waiting for the play to start.So, I encourage you all to try this cognitive strength test in your own Palaces today. Choose three simple stations, encode three easy facts, and then go Backward to the Beginning. Feel the effort, feel the resistance, and then feel the immense reward of true, integrated knowledgeThank you for tuning in to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. Until next time, stay grounded, stay magnetic, and keep those cognitive pathways clear.#TheBackwardWalk, #MetivierMethod, #PeterOfRavenna ,#CognitiveFitness ,#HolisticMemory, #GrandpaBill, #BHHealingHour, #MagneticMind,The Ravenna Foundation: Stability FirstThe Dissolution of Linear Thinking The Healing Power of Mastery

In breaking news, a federal judge in the Abrego Garcia criminal case has gagged AG Pam Bondi, Border Czar Tom Homan, Homeland Security Sec Kristie Noem, and the rest of the Trump Administration from making public statements about Garcia's case undermining his 6th Amendment right to a fair trial, AND has ordered that the Government produce all documents about prosecutors who quit rather than indict Garcia. Michael Popok also reports on Judge Xinis efforts to prevent Garcia from being removed to Liberia in the meantime by a vindictive government.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (10/29/2025): 3:05pm- On Wednesday, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley held a press conference where he announced that Jack Smith and Joe Biden's FBI issued 197 subpoenas “to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions” all of which appear to target the communications of over “430 Republican individuals and organizations.” 3:30pm- Early voting in New Jersey began on Saturday, October 25th. According to reports, “unaffiliated” voter turnout is already up—and most polling seems to indicate those voters will prefer Jack Ciattarelli over Mikie Sherrill. 3:40pm- Can Rich go a full segment without promoting his upcoming Fox News appearances? Spoiler: The answer is NO!
