Parliament's Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police Ian Cameron has strongly criticized proposed amendments to private security legislation, cautioning that they could severely undermine the industry and jeopardize community safety. Cameron warns that the changes threaten over 500,000 jobs and essential frontline safety tools, such as tasers. The draft firearm regulations, recently gazetted by Police Minister Senzo Mchunu, have ignited widespread controversy. Critics argue that the new rules would effectively disarm security guards by prohibiting the use of tasers, rubber bullets, and firearms in public spaces. Ian Cameron spoke to Elvis Presslin
We introduce listeners to Thaddeus Stevens, a significant yet often overlooked figure in American history. As an ardent opponent of slavery, Stevens played crucial roles in the passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, and led efforts to impeach President Andrew Johnson. Bruce Levine, author of Thaddeus Stevens: Civil War Revolutionary and Fighter for Racial Justice, joins the discussion to provide in-depth insights into Stevens' life, his relentless fight for abolition, equal rights, and free public education, and the powerful legacy he left behind. The episode delves into Steven's contributions, his complex relationship with Abraham Lincoln, and his radical yet unfulfilled vision for racial equality and land redistribution during the Reconstruction era.[00:00] Introduction to a Historical Figure[01:22] Meet the Hosts[02:01] Sponsor Message and Listener Engagement[03:32] Introducing the Guest: Bruce Levine[04:56] Thaddeus Stevens: Early Life and Influences[08:42] Stevens' Political Career and Ideals[18:57] Stevens' Role in the Anti-Slavery Movement[27:07] Sponsor Message and Historical Recording[30:07] Thaddeus Stevens and the Underground Railroad[32:30] Stevens' Political Career and Opposition[36:33] Stevens' Radical Ideas and Reconstruction[43:29] Stevens' Views on Tariffs and Capitalism[46:56] Legacy and Recognition of Thaddeus Stevens[49:13] Conclusion and Final ThoughtsTakeaways: Thaddeus Stevens was a pivotal figure against slavery, known for his radical ideas and determination. Stevens played a crucial role in the passage of the 13th and 14th amendments, pushing for racial equality. Despite his significant contributions, Stevens faced backlash and was often marginalized in historical accounts. His vision for land redistribution to freed slaves, known as '40 acres and a mule,' was ahead of its time but ultimately rejected. Stevens' fierce opposition to President Andrew Johnson's policies showcased his commitment to Reconstruction efforts. His legacy reminds us that true progress often requires bold action and unwavering conviction, even in the face of adversity. Bruce Levine Ph.

The Confidence Game by Maria Konnikova “Most of us who have created a business know that we're only as good as the way our employees, clients and partners view us,” Bloomberg explained. “Most of us don't pretend we're smart enough to make every big decision by ourselves. And most of us who have our names on the door know that we are only as good as our word….to run the nation like he's run his business. God help us. I'm a New Yorker, and I know a con when I see one.” Michael Bloomberg 2016 Fortune A- Woke History Deconstruction and Jim Crow 2.0…Fascism ultra-conservatism by any other name smells just as rotten —Reconstruction, in simple terms, was the period after the American Civil War (roughly 1865-1877) where the United States attempted to: Rebuild the South: Physically and economically devastated by the war. Bring the Southern states back into the Union: After their secession. Define the place of newly freed African Americans in society: Granting them rights and citizenship. It was a complex and ultimately failed process in achieving full equality for Black Americans due to resistance from white Southerners, the rise of discriminatory laws (like Jim Crow), and a lack of sustained federal support. However, Reconstruction did lay the groundwork for future civil rights efforts with the passage of the Constitution's 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. —Essentially, Jim Crow was a system designed to maintain white supremacy and deny Black Americans their basic rights and equal opportunities after the Civil War and the failure of Reconstruction.

Members of the Virginia General Assembly will be returning to the Capitol next week, and Michael Pope reports that they’ll be considering an important gubernatorial amendment about surveillance.
Legislatures in States and Congress in Washington all have amendments somewhere in the process. But are they good for freedom and prosperity? Or are they just kicking the can down the road to put a band aid on a problem that really needs more work or a better solution? Or do we need changes that lessen our need for more government and more amendments later? Elected officials, legislation, and amendments have gotten us into the tangled web we are caught in now. So how should we vote on all the amendments that come up in legislative bodies in our Country? Here are my thoughts as they pertain to amendments coming up in Louisiana in this weekends elections.
Plus: a Dominion Energy “near miss;” an update on Virginia's basketball teams in March Madness; and other stories.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for March 22nd Publish Date: March 22nd PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, March 22nd and Happy Birthday to William Shatner I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. 'Beyond heroic' — VALOR Awards Honor Gwinnett Public Safety Officials Tort reform bill squeaks through Georgia House Georgia Supreme Court takes up State Election Board rules changes All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: 'Beyond heroic' — VALOR Awards Honor Gwinnett Public Safety Officials The Gwinnett Chamber hosted its 20th Annual VALOR Public Safety Awards, honoring first responders for their dedication to keeping Gwinnett County safe. Held at the Gas South District, the event gathered over 360 attendees, including business leaders and community members. President Nick Masino highlighted the vital role of public safety in fostering a thriving community. Awards recognized exceptional service, including Major Michelle Anglin for Leadership, Corporal Sean Donahue as Public Safety Person of the Year, and the Behavioral Health Unit as Public Safety Unit of the Year. The ceremony celebrated the heroism and commitment of Gwinnett's first responders. STORY 2: Tort reform bill squeaks through Georgia House The Georgia House narrowly passed Senate Bill 68, a GOP-backed tort reform measure, with a 91-82 vote. The bill, a priority for Gov. Brian Kemp, aims to curb excessive jury awards and stabilize liability insurance costs by introducing premises liability guidelines, allowing seat belt evidence in auto cases, and limiting medical damage claims to actual costs. Supporters argue it will benefit businesses, while opponents, including many Democrats, claim it reduces access to justice and unfairly impacts crime victims. The bill includes a carveout for sex trafficking victims but faces criticism for excluding other crime victims. It now returns to the Senate for review. STORY 3: Georgia Supreme Court takes up State Election Board rules changes Civil rights and voting rights groups urged the Georgia Supreme Court to uphold a lower-court ruling invalidating seven election law changes made by the Republican-controlled State Election Board (SEB) last fall. The changes included hand-counting ballots, delaying result certification for fraud inquiries, stricter absentee ballot requirements, and expanded poll watcher areas. A Fulton County judge previously ruled the SEB overstepped its authority, violating the separation of powers. However, state and Republican lawyers argued the SEB acted within its rights and that the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to sue. The case centers on the balance of legislative and executive powers.

We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Gwinnett Police Again Ask For Public's Help In Fatal Hit-and-Run Investigation The Gwinnett County Police Department is seeking new information about a hit-and-run that killed 24-year-old Mecha Woodard on September 27, 2024. Woodard was struck while walking on the eastbound shoulder of State Route 316 near Breckenridge Blvd. The suspect vehicle, a Lexus RX350 or RX450 (2019-2022), sustained damage to the front passenger-side bumper and headlight. Investigators urge anyone with information to contact Gwinnett Police Detectives at 678-442-5653 or submit anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477 or www.stopcrimeATL.com, with potential cash rewards for leads. STORY 5: Senate measure to trim state agency rules advances toward a vote by the House The Georgia House Budget and Fiscal Affairs Oversight Committee advanced Senate Bill 28, the "Red Tape Rollback Act," aimed at reducing outdated or burdensome state agency rules. Sponsored by Sen. Greg Dolezal, the bill requires agencies to review rules every four years and conduct impact analyses for proposed rules costing $3 million or more in compliance over five years. Republicans view it as a way to streamline bureaucracy, while Democrats argue it could burden agencies and taxpayers. Amendments raised the impact analysis threshold and required analyses to be posted online. The bill now heads to the House Rules Committee. Break 3: STORY 6: State Senate health committee approves IVF bill House Bill 428, which codifies the right to in vitro fertilization (IVF) in Georgia, unanimously passed a Senate committee. Prompted by an Alabama ruling treating frozen embryos as children, the bill ensures IVF remains accessible in Georgia without introducing new regulations. Sponsor Rep. Lehman Franklin, who has personal experience with IVF, emphasized the bill simply formalizes current practices. Parents shared emotional testimonies about their IVF journeys, while some called for ethical regulations on embryo handling. The bill now heads to the Senate Rules Committee for a full Senate vote. STORY 7: Teen fatally shot during 'Senior Skip Day' at Denny Dobbs Park An 18-year-old Salem High School student, Justin Etienne, was fatally shot Wednesday at Denny Dobbs Park during an informal "Senior Skip Day" event involving students from Newton and Rockdale counties. The Newton County Sheriff’s Office described the incident as isolated, with no gang involvement or additional injuries. Grief counselors were made available at schools, and law enforcement increased patrols as a precaution. Authorities are urging witnesses or anyone with information to come forward. Both Newton and Rockdale school systems expressed condolences and emphasized the event was not school-sanctioned. The investigation is ongoing.

Bridget Phillipson's schools bill is back in the Commons today. The scope of the legislation is twofold: firstly, looking at the welfare of children in schools and secondly at fundamentally changing the landscape of secondary education by doing away with academies (and with it the legacy of the previous Conservative government on education). The plan has been read by many – including former head of Ofsted Amanda Spielman, who joins today's podcast – as Labour pandering to the unions and perhaps even prioritising the adults (union members) over the children. Amendments to the bill will be debated this afternoon, including a Tory amendment that would ban phones in schools, although it doesn't seem that Labour is in the mood to make any concessions. What is motivating Labour? What's the vision of change here? James Heale speaks to Michael Gove and Amanda Spielman. Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Megan McElroy.
