Trump isn't just weaponizing the DOJ, he's dome the same at the Treasury Department, and now a senior leader and huge Trump donor who has objected to massive spying by Treasury on the American people has quit, calling attention to the use of “Geographic Target Orders” by Treasury in violation of the 4th Amendment. Popok explains that the spying scandal coming to light may explain why Trump was so hot and bothered about “Somali fraud” during the SOTU.

This Day in Legal History: Hiram Rhodes RevelsOn February 25, 1870, Hiram Rhodes Revels was sworn in as the first African American to serve in the United States Senate. His election came during the turbulent Reconstruction era that followed the Civil War, a period defined by constitutional change and political uncertainty. Revels represented Mississippi, a former Confederate state that had only recently been readmitted to the Union. In a moment heavy with symbolism, he filled the Senate seat once held by Jefferson Davis, the former president of the Confederacy. The contrast between the two men reflected the profound transformation taking place in American law and government.Revels' swearing-in came after the ratification of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, which abolished slavery, guaranteed equal protection, and protected voting rights regardless of race. His presence in the Senate gave tangible meaning to those constitutional promises. Yet his path to office was not without challenge. Some senators argued that he did not meet the Constitution's nine-year citizenship requirement, claiming that the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott v. Sandford had denied Black Americans citizenship before the Civil War. Supporters countered that the 14th Amendment had settled the question of citizenship, making Revels eligible to serve. The Senate ultimately voted to seat him, affirming the legal force of the Reconstruction Amendments.Revels served only a brief term, but his impact was lasting. His election marked a rare window in American history when federal power was actively used to expand civil and political rights in the South. Although Reconstruction would eventually give way to decades of segregation and disenfranchisement, February 25, 1870 stands as a reminder of a constitutional moment when the nation attempted to redefine equality under the law.The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission released its first major update to its enforcement manual in eight years, outlining a new vision focused on fairness and transparency. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins described the revisions as overdue and said the agency will now review the manual annually. The updated 115-page guide provides clearer direction on how enforcement investigations will proceed and what options are available to individuals and companies under scrutiny.One key change involves the Wells process, which notifies potential defendants that SEC staff intend to recommend enforcement action. Under the revised policy, recipients of a Wells notice will have four weeks to submit a written response. After filing that response, they may request a meeting with senior leadership in the Division of Enforcement to argue against pursuing charges or to present their perspective on the case.Atkins has previously indicated that reforming the Wells process is a priority, emphasizing the need for accurate and carefully considered enforcement actions. Enforcement Division Director Meg Ryan also noted that a persuasive Wells response can influence whether commissioners ultimately approve a case. The manual further reinstates the ability of settling parties to request waivers from automatic industry bars that can follow enforcement actions. In addition, it introduces clearer guidance on how cooperation may reduce penalties and explains how the SEC may coordinate with criminal authorities. Overall, the agency says the revisions aim to clarify how it enforces federal securities laws and strengthen public confidence in the process.SEC Lays Out New Enforcement Vision In Revised Guidelines - Law360Paramount Skydance has submitted a revised proposal to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, as a bidding battle with Netflix continues. The new offer follows the expiration of a seven-day waiver period under WBD's existing merger agreement with Netflix. For Paramount's deal to move forward, WBD's board must first determine that the revised bid qualifies as a “Company Superior Proposal” under the Netflix agreement. After that, a four-business-day match period would need to pass, the Netflix agreement would have to be terminated, and a new definitive agreement would need to be signed with Paramount.While the board reviews the updated proposal, Paramount said it will keep its tender offer in place and continue urging shareholders to reject what it calls the less favorable Netflix transaction. The rivalry between the bidders has spilled into public statements, with Paramount criticizing the structure of the Netflix deal as potentially reducing shareholder value. Netflix has pushed back, accusing Paramount of mischaracterizing regulatory issues and focusing on appearances rather than results.WBD confirmed it received the revised bid but reiterated that its current merger agreement with Netflix remains active and that the board still recommends the Netflix deal. Specific terms of Paramount's updated offer were not disclosed, though it recently added financial safeguards, regulatory commitments, and an offer to cover the breakup fee if WBD exits the Netflix agreement. Netflix's agreement to acquire WBD's studio and streaming operations is valued at about $82.7 billion, while Paramount's competing proposal to purchase the entire company is valued at roughly $108.4 billion.Paramount Revises WBD Offer As Netflix Bid War Goes On - Law360​​A federal judge has temporarily barred prosecutors from freely searching devices seized from a Washington Post reporter during a national security leak investigation. The FBI searched reporter Hannah Natanson's home in January and took electronic devices as part of a probe into the alleged disclosure of government secrets. Natanson, who has reported on President Donald Trump's efforts to dismiss large numbers of federal employees, has not been charged with any crime.U.S. Magistrate Judge William Porter ruled that the government may not conduct an unrestricted review of the seized materials. Instead, he said the court will oversee the examination of the devices to ensure that journalistic protections are respected while still allowing investigators to seek relevant evidence. Porter rejected the Justice Department's request to let prosecutors carry out a broad, unsupervised search.Justice Department attorneys had argued that reviewing the materials was essential to a criminal investigation involving national security concerns. They proposed using a separate FBI “filter team” to screen the data and remove irrelevant content before investigators accessed it. The judge's order reflects an effort to balance press freedom with the government's authority to pursue evidence in sensitive cases.US judge blocks search of Washington Post reporter's devices | ReutersA California woman is set to testify in Los Angeles that her early use of Instagram and YouTube harmed her mental health, in a closely watched trial against Meta and Google. The plaintiff, identified as Kaley G.M., says she began using YouTube at age six and Instagram at nine, and later struggled with depression and body dysmorphia. Her attorneys argue the companies deliberately designed their platforms to attract and retain young users despite being aware of potential psychological risks.The case is part of a broader international push to address the impact of social media on children, with some countries already imposing restrictions. Earlier phases of the trial focused on what the companies knew about the effects of their platforms on young users and how they targeted that demographic. Now the proceedings are turning to Kaley's personal experiences and whether the platforms substantially contributed to her mental health challenges.To succeed, her legal team must prove that the design or operation of the platforms was a significant factor in causing or worsening her condition. Meta has pointed to her history of family instability and alleged abuse as alternative explanations for her struggles. Her lawyer, however, referenced internal company research suggesting that teens facing difficult circumstances were more likely to use Instagram compulsively.The lawsuit also challenges features such as autoplay videos, endless scrolling, “like” buttons, and beauty filters, which the plaintiff claims encouraged prolonged use and distorted self-image. YouTube's defense argues that she did not fully use available safety tools and presented data indicating her recent average viewing time was relatively limited.Woman suing Meta, YouTube over social media addiction takes the stand at trial | Reuters This is a public episode.

Granville Supreme Court case established that fit parents have a fundamental 14th Amendment right to make decisions regarding the care and custody of their children. The ruling struck down an overly broad Washington state law that allowed any person to sue for visitation, asserting that the government cannot override a fit parent's choices just because a judge believes a different arrangement would be "better". While frequently cited by parental rights advocates to support autonomy and equal time, the case specifically addressed disputes between parents and third parties, such as grandparents, rather than conflicts between two fit parents.

On Feb. 24, 1865, Kentucky's General Assembly voted against ratifying the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery in the United States.

Days after the Supreme Court delivered a major blow to President Trump's trade agenda, many questions remain regarding the future of American commerce. Despite the ruling, the President has vowed to use alternative authorities to impose tariffs—announcing on Saturday an increase in new global tariffs to 15 percent.

Victor Owen Schwartz, owner of VOS Selections, was a plaintiff in one of the landmark cases that led the High Court to strike down the administration's emergency tariff powers. He joins FOX Business Network's Lydia Hu to discuss the historic ruling and his fight for a refund.

Artificial intelligence is developing at a breakneck pace, transforming industries across the globe.   But the reaction remains mixed. While some companies are leaning on AI to replace human workers, others are leveraging this newfound assistance to redirect employees toward higher-level tasks—even sparking hiring sprees as AI assumes more routine responsibilities.   Will this technology eventually automate your role, or will it simply make your job better, easier, and more efficient?   Shyam Sankar, Chief Technology Officer of Palantir Technologies, joins the FOX News Rundown to discuss how businesses are implementing AI just as its oversight becomes a focal point for lawmakers in Washington. Sankar offers a blunt assessment, arguing that the “American people are being lied to about AI.”   We often have to trim our interviews during the week, but we thought you'd like to hear this conversation in its entirety.

The Supreme Court has blocked President Trump's use of an emergency law to impose sweeping tariffs on most U.S. trading partners. In a 6-3 decision, the court argued that Trump's use of IEEPA to control tariffs would expand executive power at the expense of the other branches of government. President Trump blasted the court saying they must have been influenced by foreign powers. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Elaine Dezenski, Director and Head of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies' Center on Economic and Financial Power, who says while this is a blow to the Trump Administration's economic policy, they have many other 'pathways to achieve their tariff strategy.'

They want you to give up. Tonight is proof that the walls of their pedo-empire are falling down. Nothing on Earth will stop this reckoning. Love, God

! JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for this week's Astro News You Can Use, including a look at former Prince Andrew's sudden arrest & how the Epstein scandal has reached the level of crimes against humanity at the United Nations!This podcast discusses how the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse on Feb 17 challenges now us to plant seeds that can blossom into the birth of a new, more humanitarian future-oriented ideology. It told us too, however, that it's the ideologues who, rather than believe in an ideology founded on a system of ideas and ideals--especially ones which form the basis of economic or political theory and policy--instead are often blindly partisan advocates or adherents of a particular ideology.And, since this eclipse had both luminaries in Aquarius square their ruler Uranus in Taurus, it's highlighted that a change in values is most definitely overdue. Uranus is the planet that tells us that the only constant is change. And, that the longer we resist change, the more likely change will occur in a sudden, surprising, or shocking way.So, the universe is asking us now several things if we look back & review the past few lunations. It obvious now that it asked us at the December 19 Sagittarius New Moon to plant seeds that lead to bringing into collective consciousness what we believe to be truly moral, ethical, & just.Meanwhile, the Capricorn New Moon on January 18 highlighted the need for us to stand our ground, or draw the line if you will since Saturn-ruled Capricorn loves its boundaries, in the fight against tyrannical idealogues who don't believe in upholding justice for all.Now, since this February 17 Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse—which carries several themes we're already seeing playing out not only here in America but worldwide—it's time for us to review our true ideological beliefs & decide whether they are about a future of betterment for all of mankind or only for a entitled few.Former Prince Andrew's arrest on February 19, which also happened to be his 66th birthday, shocked the world given his royal lineage. However, it showed us that no one is immune from finding justice through the legal system.This podcast looks at Andrew's natal chart & dissects how his Chiron in late Aquarius conjunct his 8th House Pisces Sun—along with his Scorpio Moon square to them both—reveals the origin of his woundedness in relationships in general & with females in particular. We also discuss his history of sexual obsession from the time he was a young teen.Meanwhile, however, the Epstein scandal—spurred mostly by the release of three million documents related to him—has gone international in other ways as well, since it's reached the level of concern for the United Nations.“In a statement on Monday, the independent experts – who serve in their individual capacities under mandates from the UN Human Rights Council and are not UN staff – warned that the alleged acts documented in the files could amount to some of the gravest crimes under international law.“The reported conduct could amount to sexual slavery, reproductive violence, enforced disappearance, torture, inhuman and degrading treatment, and femicide, according to the experts.“So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity,” they said.” IS AMERICA AT A TURNING POINT, AND IF SO, IS IT “UNITED WE STAND” OR “DIVIDED WE FALL?”Meanwhile, other shocks & surprises occurred as well, including the sad news of the death of Jesse Jackson, “American civil rights activist, politician, and ordained Baptist minister. A protégé of Martin Luther King Jr. and James Bevel during the civil rights movement, he became one of the most prominent civil rights leaders of the late 20th and early 21st centuries,” according to Wikipedia.Then there's the ongoing stalemate in the partial U.S. government shutdown as GOP ideologues continue to block the Democrat's request to make modifications to Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) & Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agents as they continue to violate due process & the 4th Amendment.   No surprise that the partial government shutdown took place as Saturn (read: resistance) entered Mars-ruled Aries, the archetypal energy of motivation & action. There's this from Thom Hartmann, Feb 17: The American Revolution Started Over This Kind of Abuse: Have We Forgotten? Once the government decides who qualifies for Fourth Amendment protection, rights stop being rights and start being privileges handed out by those in power…”“This fight isn't really about immigration,” Hartmann explains. “It's about whether the Constitution still restrains government power at all. When elected officials call it a ‘nonstarter' to require federal agents to get a judicial warrant before kicking in doors, to give people bail or a trial before they face long-term prison, and to allow protests, they're not debating border policy, they're testing whether the Bill of Rights is still binding or has become merely decorative.“The Fourth Amendment: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”SATURN/NEPTUNE CONJOIN IN MARS-RULED ARIES: WAR INLAND & ON THE SEAS?And now we find ourselves on the threshold of the new Saturn/Neptune cycle as the two meet on February 20 in Aries, kicking off a astrological energy that will last for the next 36 years.This as Donald Trump has threatened to staunch the free flow of information concerning voting & voting rights by threatening to limit who can vote & define who can't. All based on the fact that he's an ideologue who, in combination with his many lies, seems to truly believe he lost the 2020 presidential election due to fraud inherent in the voting process. And then there's his threats now to go to war with Iran. Remember, Saturn represents foundations that allow us to feel secure, while Neptune is water, among other things. In Mars-ruled Aries, with the naval building up near Iran, it's clear that Trump's threats involve invading Iran represent a transgression of such boundaries.Like his illegal bombing of boats in the Caribbean & Pacific oceans suspected (but not proven) to be carrying illegal drugs, & his midnight military invasion of Venezuela & the kidnapping of its leader Nicolas Maduro & his wife, this most recent threat to Iran—likely endorsed by Israel's Netanyahu since the two met recently in Washington, D.C.—seems to be based also on Trump's fixed ideological notion that he is the king, not only of America, but of the world.Pushback has already begun as a War Powers Resolution has been introduced in Congress, stated that only they have the ability to declare & not the president alone. Tensions will likely grow as we approach the February 24 first quarter lunar square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun (since the Sun entered Pisces on February 18, the day after the Aquarius solar eclipse.)The Moon (the people) will likely continue to communicate (Gemini) their concerns with the president's (Sun) vaguely articulated plans to invade yet another sovereign nation that has not declared war against the U.S.MERCURY RETROGRADE IN PISCES: REVIEW TIME!When Mercury stations retrograde at 22'34” Pisces on February 24, we've the opportunity to review several things, the first of which is what is the emotional quality of our lives? Given the state of the sluggish growth in the U.S. economy based on the negative results of Mercury-related tariffs on trade & the cost of goods, Trump's refusal to allow the opening a second major trade route from Michigan to Canada in the form of the Gordie Howe Bridge, we see there's much to review…There is also, of course, the ability of “local” communities to continue their protests against ICE & CPB as the courts have become overwhelmed by the number of habeas corpus & other rights violation cases by both citizens & immigrants—both legal & illegal—alike.As we wait the exact square of Mars in Aquarius to Uranus in Taurus, keep an eye out for any sudden martial or military action based on the beliefs of ideologues such as Trump & the kakistocracy government he's put into place this past year. The signs say it will be sudden and, given the involvement of Mars, potentially violent…Tune in to hear more, including where this Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse fell in both Washington, D.C. & in the U.S. Sibly birth charts & what that portends @https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingSee you then! Namaste…

After months of deliberation, the Supreme Court has struck down a key element of President Trump's economic agenda: his sweeping use of tariffs. The High Court's decision blocks the administration's strategy of using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose levies on global trade partners. Former National Economic Council Director and host of FOX Business Network's Kudlow, Larry Kudlow, joins Gerri Willis to react to the ruling, its disruption of the administration's economic roadmap, and the ultimate impact on American consumers.

From a high-stakes Los Angeles courtroom to the United Kingdom, major legal stories are unfolding. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg took the stand this week in a landmark trial in which a 20-year-old woman alleges that social media companies intentionally designed their platforms to addict young users. Meanwhile, in England, the former Prince Andrew was arrested by British police amid allegations of misconduct in public office stemming from his links to convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “FOX News Sunday” anchor, FOX Chief Legal Correspondent, and host of the “Livin' the Bream” podcast Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to weigh in on these headlines, as well as Republican concerns regarding this year's midterms and the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran.  While nearly half of the country has legalized recreational marijuana and even more states have authorized its medical use, the federal government has long resisted lifting its restrictions. However, President Trump signed an executive order last year to expedite the process of reclassifying marijuana from a Schedule I drug—the same category as heroin—to a Schedule III substance, recognizing its potential for medical use. This shift comes as public pushback grows and new reports suggest the drug may be more harmful than previously believed. Board-certified radiologist and FOX News contributor Dr. Nicole Saphier joins the Rundown to weigh the risks of marijuana use and discuss its impact on users of all ages.  Plus, commentary by David Marcus, FOX News Digital columnist.

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for February 19, 2026. 0:30 The United States Department of Justice has joined a lawsuit against the Los Angeles Unified School District over a policy that categorizes schools by race and ties funding, smaller class sizes, and enhanced programs to race. We break down what this “PHBAO” classification means, why attaching benefits based on race raises serious Equal Protection concerns, and how the 14th Amendment applies when government actors sort students by skin color. Is this equity… or is it government-sponsored discrimination under a new acronym? 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The Department of Transportation is ordering 550 truck driving schools across the country to close. It looks like the Chicago Bears are leaving Illinois for Indiana. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Prince Andrew is being investigated for suspicion of misconduct in office. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 Representative Ilhan Omar is back in the headlines — sans apple cider viegar— but this time it’s what she said at a recent town hall that has people talking.Omar suggested Democrats don’t just want to abolish ICE — they’re prepared to dismantle the entire United States Department of Homeland Security. We unpack what that would actually mean, the political strategy behind it, and the bigger question: what does “law and order” mean in today’s America? 16:00 We got a question in for our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burelson. If you could rub a magic lamp and get just one wish for America — what would it be? From the days of three-network news to today’s explosion of social media platforms like X, the Mamas reflect on how information — and misinformation — shapes division in our country. They talk about the pandemic years, shadow bans, competing narratives, and the challenge of figuring out what’s actually true in a world where everyone has a microphone. But the conversation goes deeper than media. It’s about friendships strained over politics, assumptions made about neighbors, and how quickly labels replace relationships. When did who you vote for become more important than who you are? And how do we get back to a place where disagreement doesn’t mean disdain? It’s an honest, heartfelt discussion about truth, unity, and loving people even when you don’t share their politics — a reminder that restoring America might start with a little more light… and a lot more grace. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani built his campaign on a simple, viral promise: only the “uber wealthy” would pay more. Not you. Not your neighbor. Just the fat cats, the yacht crowd, the so-called one percent. But now? The Mamdani is floating a nearly 10% property tax hike — and that doesn’t just land on penthouse owners. It hits homeowners, retirees on fixed incomes, small landlords, and yes, renters, because higher property taxes don’t stay put. They trickle down into higher rents and higher costs for everyone. So what happened to “only the wealthy will pay”? We dig into how big spending promises — free programs, expanded benefits, sweeping commitments — eventually collide with math. When the tax base shrinks and high earners relocate, who makes up the difference? 26:00 Colorado just lost its largest corporation. Palantir Technologies — the $300+ billion AI firm that moved from Silicon Valley to Denver in 2020 citing cultural differences with Big Tech — has now packed up again, relocating its headquarters to Miami. The move follows months of protests outside its Denver offices over its contracts with the Israeli military and federal agencies like ICE, along with growing regulatory pressure from Colorado’s new AI law. So why leave? And why Florida? We break down whether this is about taxes, regulation, activist pressure, or a broader shift as companies seek business-friendly, right-to-work states. As America’s economy evolves, Palantir’s exit raises a bigger question: which vision of governance will win the future of growth? 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 A tragic shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink is raising disturbing questions. Authorities say the gunman, Robert Dorgan, allegedly targeted his ex-wife, their son, and members of her family during a high school hockey game — and that this was not random, but deliberate. Reports indicate there had been long-standing family conflict, including disputes over his transgender identity and a divorce that followed. As more details emerge, the story becomes even more heartbreaking: a fractured family, mental health concerns, and a violent act that devastated multiple lives in a single moment. We examine what’s known about the case, the role family estrangement may have played, and the broader cultural tensions surrounding gender identity, media coverage, and mental health. Most importantly, we ask the difficult question: how do we recognize warning signs and prevent tragedies like this before they happen? 35:30 Sometimes the left tries so hard to make a point… that they end up making the conservative argument for us. Case in point: columnist Jill Filipovic recently argued that if gender-affirming surgeries for minors are banned, then all cosmetic surgeries for minors — nose jobs, breast augmentations, and the like — should be banned too (with exceptions for true medical necessity). Well… yes. We unpack how that statement actually reinforces a broader concern many conservatives have been raising: maybe we shouldn’t be encouraging cosmetic alterations for children at all. Maybe we shouldn’t be over-sexualizing teenagers. Maybe we shouldn’t be permanently altering bodies that haven’t fully developed. We also look at the cultural pressure to “fix” perfectly healthy bodies — from Hollywood cautionary tales like Jennifer Grey to today’s social media-driven beauty standards — and ask whether our society is sending young people the wrong message about identity and self-worth. At the heart of it all is a bigger question: instead of telling kids there’s something wrong with their bodies, should we be teaching them they were created with purpose and value just as they are? 39:30 Kansas lawmakers have drawn a clear line. After the legislature passed a bill defining sex in state law as biological sex at birth, Democratic Governor Laura Kelly vetoed it. Lawmakers responded by overriding her veto — and now the measure is officially the law in Kansas. To wrap up today's show we unpack the political showdown, the cultural debate behind it, and the broader question of identity in today’s America. We also reflect on a simple but powerful idea echoed by voices like Sophia Loren and Oscar Wilde: real confidence comes from being comfortable in your own skin. At the end of the day, the conversation turns to purpose, design, and the belief that we are not accidents — that we are created intentionally and with value. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

The threat of military conflict between the U.S. and Iran is escalating as tense diplomatic talks remain at a stalemate.

How Trump Can Legally Be President in 2029 - And Exactly How He Does It - Alan Dershowitz

I never thought I'd be glued to my screen watching court battles unfold like episodes of some high-stakes drama, but here we are in mid-February 2026, and the Supreme Court is buzzing with cases tied straight to President Donald Trump's administration. Just last Friday, February 13th, a Republican member of Congress, along with a group of New York voters and state election officials, rushed to the U.S. Supreme Court begging them to let New York stick with its current congressional map for the 2026 elections. See, a state court had blocked it, calling it unfair, but these folks argued it should hold up to avoid chaos at the polls. SCOTUSblog reports the justices ordered the challengers to respond by Thursday afternoon, so eyes are on Washington for a quick ruling that could reshape House seats in the Empire State.Shifting gears to the immigration front, the Supreme Court has a blockbuster looming: oral arguments set for April 1st on President Trump's executive order aiming to end birthright citizenship for almost everyone born on U.S. soil. That's the 14th Amendment guarantee under fire, and SCOTUSblog's Amy Howe broke down a stack of amicus briefs backing the administration, from legal scholars to states like Texas and Florida arguing it's time to reinterpret the old rule. Challengers are gearing up too, promising a fight over what "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" really means—could redefine American identity overnight.Over in Boston's federal court, the Justice Department slapped Harvard University with a lawsuit on Friday, accusing them of stonewalling documents for over ten months. The Trump team wants proof that Harvard's complying with the Supreme Court's 2023 ban on affirmative action in admissions, post-Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard. The Hill quotes a Harvard spokesperson firing back, calling it retaliatory overreach since the university won't surrender its independence. This one's personal—admissions data could expose if elite schools are dodging the ruling.Meanwhile, environmentalists are rallying after the administration axed the EPA's 2009 endangerment finding, the bedrock that justified greenhouse gas regs since greenhouse gases were deemed a public health threat. The New York Times says it's primed for Supreme Court showdowns, leaning on recent wins like curbing agency power in cases such as West Virginia v. EPA. Groups like the Sierra Club are suing, fearing a loss could kneecap future climate rules.Tariffs are heating up too—President Trump nominated White House lawyer Kara Westercamp to the U.S. Court of International Trade last Thursday, a spot that might rule on refunds if SCOTUS guts some duties. Politico notes giants like Costco and Toyota are suing Customs and Border Protection to freeze liquidation of their payments, buying time before refunds vanish. Business Insider lists more Fortune 500 players piling in, with deadlines ticking.And don't sleep on the judicial shuffle: Ballotpedia's February vacancy count shows President Trump with 39 Article III nominations since January 20th, 27 confirmed—including 21 district judges—outrunning averages. Fresh picks like Anna St. John for Louisiana's Eastern District and Chris Wolfe for Texas Western are Senate-bound.It's a whirlwind of lawsuits testing Trump's agenda from New York maps to Harvard halls, climate battlegrounds to border walls. With SCOTUS possibly dropping opinions this Friday at 10 a.m. Eastern, or next week on the 24th and 25th, the justices hold the gavel.Thanks for tuning in, listeners.

New York City's Democratic socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani is threatening a 9.5% property tax increase and 5k officer reduction in the New York City Police Department's ranks if state lawmakers do not raise taxes on wealthy residents and corporations. The Mayor says the increase in taxes would address city's $5.4 billion budget deficit. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul opposes raising property taxes and completely rejects the idea of raising income taxes, said the state would give the city an additional $1.5 billion in funding. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Pierre Debbas, partner and founding member of the 'Romer Debbas' LLP, who says finding budget cuts rather than raising taxes is the route that should be taken because the middle-class will suffer.

A partial government shutdown is impacting the Department of Homeland Security, leaving essential personnel to work without pay as Republicans and Democrats remain divided over funding. The debate intensified following controversial immigration enforcement actions in Minneapolis & Los Angeles that have sparked anti-ICE protests and demands for stricter oversight of federal agents. Rep.Tony Gonzales (R-TX), whose district covers 800 miles of the southern border, joins to discuss the DHS funding standoff, the focus on the removal of criminal illegal aliens, and why he believes the border is more secure now than under the previous administration.The Trump administration is once again taking a closer look at the American diet and what's in it. As part of the Department of Health and Human Services “Make America Healthy Again” agenda, the Food and Drug Administration is targeting the longstanding “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) rule, which allows food companies to self-certify ingredients without federal oversight. FDA Deputy Commissioner for Human Foods Kyle Diamantas joins the Rundown to discuss how Americans can avoid potentially harmful processed ingredients and the steps Washington is taking to eliminate them.

So we found out yesterday from the Epstein files that in 2018, Steve Bannon told Epstein that the 25th Amendment should be invoked against Trump. Back then. So utterly at odds with everything Bannon says publicly about Trump. And it reminded me and disgusted me once again, that Trump and everyone in Trump's orbit lies. All the time. They don't give a damn about the truth. We just don't speak enough about this. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The suspect was arrested after a Beech Grove police officer was shot and killed last night. Indianapolis' Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office handles all but seven counties in the state. Hoosiers will vote this year on whether to allow judges to deny some potentially dangerous offenders bail under a constitutional amendment that passed through the legislature Monday. A push to shorten the number of early voting days in Indiana has been slipped into a bill as the legislative session nears its end. Lawmakers aim to crack down on the influence of foreign governments through legislation moving through the statehouse. Want to go deeper on the stories you hear on WFYI News Now?

This week, Jason Bassler, Matt Agorist, and Don Via, Jr. welcomed Dave Benner to the podcast. Dave is a historian, author, and contributor to platforms like The Tenth Amendment Center, the Mises Institute, and the Abbeville Institute. He has penned essential books such as Thomas Paine: A Lifetime of Radicalism, Compact of the Republic: The League of States and the Constitution, and The 14th Amendment and the Incorporation Doctrine. A staunch advocate of Jeffersonian principles, Dave is an outspoken critic of centralized authority and federal overreach, offering an insightful historical lens to today's most pressing issues. The conversation begins by examining the current administration's increasingly aggressive posture toward Iran, which Dave argues is bringing the U.S. closer to the brink of a hot war. This leads into a deep dive regarding the curious rebranding of Jeffrey Epstein as a Russian intelligence asset. Dave provides a brilliant analysis of why the "Russia" label is being used as a desperate limited hangout to protect the domestic and allied intelligence agencies that actually facilitated Epstein's operation. We clarify that critiquing the state's narrative doesn't make one a friend to foreign criminals like Putin, but rather highlights how the establishment uses foreign boogeymen to shield itself from a true domestic reckoning. The episode then shifts gears to the absolute "clown show" in D.C. involving Pam Bondi and the Epstein files. We discuss how Thomas Massie caught the DOJ red-handed redacting the names of powerful co-conspirators like Les Wexner while simultaneously leaking the private information of victims. Bondi's dismissive claims of "Trump Derangement Syndrome" serve as a perfect example of using partisan loyalty as a human shield to block accountability for a pedophile ring. We also touch on the case of Nancy Guthrie, which served as a massive media distraction while exposing a terrifying surveillance reality: the FBI's admission of pulling data from disconnected, unsubscribed cameras. Finally, we look at the role of Palantir and the elite's view of the public, before Dave offers a powerful "White Pill" by grounding our current struggle in the historical importance of decentralization and the path for individuals to reclaim their sovereignty.

Trump's lawyers just made a major blunder, subjecting him to a deposition under oath about Jan6 and his role in leading the insurrection. Michael Popok explains how a Federal Judge's order in Miami requiring that discovery go forward in Trump's suit against the BBC for reporting on his insurrection leading the Ellipse Speech on Jan6, puts Trump under oath and perhaps forced to take the 5th Amendment.
