Because of the government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly unemployment and jobs survey today. But that's probably not a big deal to President Donald Trump, who has apparently decided that the best statistics are the ones that either say what he wants to hear, or are simply never heard at all.  The most expensive extreme weather events, which facilities are creating the most pollution, quarterly reports, incidents of domestic terrorism, the number of people who need food assistance…these are all statistics Americans need to know. And these are all forms of data under attack by the Trump administration. And this started long before the shutdown. America has been a world leader at collecting data on everything from the number of bison living in Plains states to the divorce rate – but our data supremacy might be coming to an end. And that's really, really bad, for reasons we might not even know yet. So to find out more about the stats we're losing, and what else we're losing in the process, we spoke to Denice Ross. She's a senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists and former U.S. Chief Data Scientist for the Biden administration.And in headlines, President Donald Trump determines the US is in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels, the Trump administration punishes a slew of blue states by cancelling nearly $8-billion in grants for their clean energy projects, and the lastest update in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Candace Owens has accused Turning Point USA leadership of covering up the truth about Charlie Kirk's assassination, alleging obscuring the fact that Kirk had explicitly rejected pro-Israel donor pressure just 48 hours before his death. She claims he told TPUSA executives, Jewish donors, and a rabbi that he was abandoning the Israel project and planned to bring her back on stage with him.  Owens challenged TPUSA to publicly deny her statements, suggesting their silence proves they are protecting financial interests tied to pro-Israel donors. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger emphasize that TPUSA's refusal to address these allegations directly points to a deeper corruption and donor-driven influence within the organization. Plus segments on the letter Charlie Kirk wrote just before his death to Netanyahu demanding Israel do its own propaganda, why Israeli control over TikTok is worse than China's and the plans underway for an attack on Venezuela. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

This past week Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth boldly proclaimed that the US Military will now disregard the rules of war so that the war fighter can do what he is trained to do...kill and win. For many Americans these comments were about returning to a strong military that seeks to win. The truth is very different. The United States is bankrupt. We are no longer the world's primary super power. We are also in a moment of massive economic and cultural change. Hegseth's comments were a warning to the world to not attack, as we retract from our global footprint and assume our new diminished position as part of a multi-polar world.  #BardsFM  #EmpireInDecline #EverythingThatCanBeShaken Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com BardsFM CAP, Celebrating 50 Million Downloads: https://ambitiousfaith.net Morning Intro Music Provided by Brian Kahanek: www.briankahanek.com MYPillow promo code: BARDS Go to https://www.mypillow.com/bards and use the promo code BARDS or...

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover the third day of the government shutdown, new polling on political violence, a Minnesota immigration bust, shocking revelations in the Epstein case, crackdowns on unsafe foreign truck drivers, the rising cost of AI power demands, European drone threats, the UK's immigration and crime crisis, a free speech case in Switzerland, a new defense pact in the Pacific, and the science of living to 117. Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend.   Day Three of the Shutdown: Trump celebrated, “I can't believe the Radical Left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity.” He is targeting Democrat-leaning agencies and clawing back billions from NYC's subway system and Biden's green energy projects to fund AI and mineral wars.   Poll on Political Violence: NPR and PBS found 30 percent of Americans say violence may be necessary to “steer the country in the right direction,” up from 19 percent last year. Bryan warns that equals 60 million people.   Immigration Fraud Bust in Minnesota: Operation Twin Shield uncovered 275 likely cases of sham marriages, fake jobs, and forged documents. Nationwide “neighborhood checks” are set to follow.   Epstein Blackmail Claims: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, a former neighbor, said Epstein's massage room “was on video” and called him “the greatest blackmailer ever.” His account echoes Cindy McCain's 2020 remark that “we all knew” what Epstein was doing.   Foreign Truck Driver Crackdown: DOT Secretary Sean Duffy imposed strict new visa, immigration, and English requirements after finding 25 percent of California CDLs are bogus. Trucking groups applauded the move.   AI Sends Power Bills Higher: Bloomberg reports AI data centers pushed utility costs up $16.1 billion in the PJM grid, raising household bills. But Johns Hopkins found AI can predict surgical complications better than doctors, offering life-saving potential.   Russia's Shadow Fleet and Drone Threats: France detained a Russian oil tanker tied to drones buzzing Denmark. Bryan warns adversaries could launch drones or missiles from disguised ships off U.S. shores.   UK's Crisis of Immigration and Crime: A Syrian named Jihad al-Shamie attacked a synagogue, while a British blogger was arrested for posting “F- Hamas.” Seven Pakistani men were sentenced for grooming gangs, and the NHS briefly praised first-cousin marriage before pulling the report.   Swiss Man Jailed for Free Speech: He refused to pay fines for calling gender ideology a “mental illness” and chose 10 days in jail. Bryan notes Trump and Vance are right to warn Europe is committing “national suicide.”   Pacific Defense Pact: Papua New Guinea signed a deal with Australia, reversing a drift toward Beijing and securing vital waters for U.S. and allied navies.   Life at 117: Spanish researchers studied a woman who lived to 117, crediting strong gut bacteria, olive oil, daily walks, and plain yogurt. Bryan quipped, “Unless you live in Portland, where Antifa will get you first.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump government shutdown day three, Trump cuts Democrat agencies, NYC subway green energy clawback, NPR PBS poll political violence, Minnesota Operation Twin Shield sham marriages, Epstein blackmail Howard Lutnick massage room, Cindy McCain Epstein hiding in plain sight, Sean Duffy DOT truck driver crackdown, AI data center power bills Bloomberg, Johns Hopkins AI surgical risk, France detains Russian tanker drones Denmark, UK Jihad al-Shamie synagogue attack, UK blogger arrested Hamas post, UK grooming gangs Pakistani men, NHS cousin marriage report, Switzerland man jailed free speech skeletons, Papua New Guinea Australia defense pact, Spain woman age 117 gut bacteria

Glenn Beck Special. Digital ID & Religious Persecution: New Globalist Plans to ENSLAVE You. We're at a crossroads — freedom or total control. We see it in the U.K., where people are thrown in jail for waving their flag or sharing a meme. Prime Minister Keir Starmer's push for digital IDs is just the latest piece of a control-freak puzzle that's been coming together for years, with nudges from the U.N. and World Economic Forum. Award-winning journalist Alex Newman tells Glenn Beck that the survival of freedom depends on stopping this agenda before it's too late. But it's not just the Brits who are slaves to global elites — Glenn Beck points out how governments worldwide are racing toward totalitarianism. He shares a jaw-dropping story from South Korea, where Reverend Son of Segero Church in Busan was arrested for calling out policies he saw as anti-biblical. His son Chance tells Glenn that just days before he was assassinated, Charlie Kirk promised to make Rev. Son's stance against the South Korean regime an international human rights issue. Chance calls on Americans to pick up Charlie's torch and remind the world what liberty looks like.   Watch this special at-  https://youtu.be/P468mrWI4UY?si=serQNpaHmz9bgbBd Glenn Beck 1.59M subscribers 69,710 views Premiered Oct 1, 2025 #glenntv #glennbeck #digitalid ► Click HERE to subscribe to Glenn Beck on YouTube: https://bit.ly/2UVLqhL ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV: get.blazetv.com/glenn ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV YouTube:    / @blazetv   ► Click HERE to sign up to Glenn's newsletter: https://www.glennbeck.com/st/Morning_...

More than 1 billion people worldwide and 12% of Americans live with migraines, a disabling neurological condition that disrupts sleep, work, and daily life Melatonin does more than regulate sleep; it also shields your brain at a cellular level by neutralizing damaging free radicals and reducing inflammation linked to migraines Research shows melatonin reduces headache frequency by 51%, intensity by 53%, and duration by 46%, offering a powerful natural alternative to standard pharmaceutical drugs Adults with episodic migraines taking 3 mg of melatonin before bed experienced the strongest improvements, often cutting their migraine frequency by half or more Melatonin's safety profile is superior to common drugs like amitriptyline, with fewer and milder side effects, making it a well-tolerated option for migraine prevention

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Friday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they break down the end of taxpayer-funded subsidies for electric vehicles, Zohran Mamdani's push to dismantle gifted education, and trust in the news media falling to yet another all-time low.First, they welcome the expiration of $7,500 federal subsidies for electric vehicle buyers, which ended in September under the Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill. The subsidies were paid for with your tax dollars. Automakers enjoyed a brief sales surge before the deadline but are now bracing for a steep drop in demand. Scot points out that despite Democrats' efforts to force us to accept EV's, most people just don't want one.Next, they groan as Democrat New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani vows to end gifted education from kindergarten through second grade. Scot and Greg explain how the left is obsessed with equity instead of excellence. So instead of pushing every student to be the best they can be, they hold back the higher-achieving students to create more equal outcomes.Finally, they review the latest Gallup poll showing only 28 percent of Americans have trust in the media, which is yet another record low. Scot gives one example from just the past few weeks to explain why that loss of trust is fully justified. They also explain how this gives other news sources to win that trust. They also note efforts by CBS and The Washington Post to bring in more voices and more perspectives to their news and opinion content.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

Kevin Hassett is the director of the National Economic Council and arguably the economist closest to President Donald Trump. Right now, he's also one of the top advisers tasked with explaining the economic fallout of the government shutdown and forging a path forward. Hassett joins POLITICO's Dasha Burns for this week's episode of The Conversation, where he talks about the shutdown standoff on Capitol Hill, when Americans should start feeling the benefits of Trump's big tax bill and how the trade wars may affect the midterms.  “The really striking thing is that the place where the tariff policy effects should be the worst is the time right now where we have almost 4 percent growth and low inflation,” Hassett says. “We're very, very optimistic about how this policy is working and what it's gonna look like.” And, Hassett digs into the buzz surrounding whether or not he will be Trump's pick to replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.  Plus, Shark Tank judge and investor Kevin O'Leary comes on the show to explain why he's bullish on the TikTok deal news, bearish on the federal government's investment in Intel and how he's grading Trump 2.0's economic performance so far.

This week, we're unpacking a tale of two shutdowns—and spoiler alert: they're both Trump's.First, the government shutdown:  Why are Republicans celebrating a government shutdown while simultaneously blaming Democrats for it? How can they claim it's the "Schumer Shutdown" when they control all three branches of government? And why can't they keep their messaging straight—celebrating the shutdown on Newsmax while condemning it in Congress?We'll reveal what 71% (you read that right, seventy-one percent!) of Americans actually think about ACA subsidies (hint: they want them extended). And just over half want the Democrats to shut down the government to get those subsidies for them.And then, the shutdown of norms and decency:  From Newt Gingrich's revisionist history in the New York Times to Bari Weiss taking over CBS News, from "Kavanaugh stops" to flashbang grenades in residential hallways—we're connecting the dots on the authoritarian playbook in action.  The jackboots aren't coming. They're already here.All that and more in this edition of The Professional Left Podcast. More at proleftpod.com.Not safe for work.

Main Themes Blame Assignment: the government shutdown is caused by Democrats, specifically Chuck Schumer, to avoid pressure from progressive figures like AOC. Media Criticism: Mainstream media portrays shutdowns emotionally (e.g., TSA officers, families struggling) to support Democrats’ narrative. Lawmakers & Paychecks: Criticizes Democratic lawmakers who refuse to withhold their pay during the shutdown while ordinary federal workers face delays. Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants: Argues Democrats shut down the government over demands to fund healthcare for undocumented immigrants, citing state-level programs (Rhode Island, New York). Public Opinion: References polls showing most Americans (including Democrats and independents) oppose a shutdown over such demands. Contradictions Among Democrats: Notes conflicting statements from different Democratic representatives and senators—some denying responsibility, others admitting to supporting a shutdown. Republican Framing: Republicans upport a “clean” continuing resolution to keep government open, while Democrats are inserting expensive demands ($1.5 trillion, healthcare for illegals, social programs).

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Who Do You Trust? Clay Travis outlines a Gallup poll that reveals trust in the media has plummeted to a record low of just 28%, compared to over 70% in 1980. Clay explores why Americans no longer trust legacy media, citing misinformation during COVID-19 and the Russia collusion narrative. He challenges listeners to share which media figures they still trust, emphasizing the difference between agreeing with someone’s opinion and trusting their factual accuracy. Make it Make Sense Clay also breaks down the controversy over illegal immigrants receiving healthcare benefits in the Democrats’ continuing resolution. While Democrats claim federal funds aren’t directly paying for undocumented healthcare, Clay explains how federal dollars flow to states like California, New York, and Illinois, which then allocate funds for these services. He ties this to COVID-era spending that Democrats want to make permanent, warning that these embedded costs are fueling the shutdown fight. Practicing Gratitude Clay continues the conversation on the collapse of trust in media, sparked by a Gallup poll showing confidence at historic lows. Clay shares listener reactions and humorously calls out fellow radio host Jesse Kelly for ordering $75 tequila shots, tying it into a broader discussion about gratitude and humility in media. Clay argues that many in mainstream media lack appreciation for their privileged positions, contrasting that with his own daily practice of gratitude and the conservative ethos of thankfulness for living in America. The American Dream An in-depth interview with Congressman John James, who is running for governor of Michigan. James responds to Al Sharpton’s false claim that Michigan lacks Black congressional representation, calling out identity politics and emphasizing policy over race. He outlines why Michigan will be the epicenter of U.S. politics in 2026 and 2028, citing open gubernatorial and Senate seats, competitive House races, and the state’s pivotal role in presidential elections. James stresses the need for strong Republican leadership to restore trust, improve education, strengthen the economy, and secure election integrity. He also shares his inspiring personal story—from growing up in Detroit to graduating West Point, serving as an Apache pilot in Iraq, and building a successful business—underscoring his commitment to faith, family, and service. Clay's Got Balls! Clay promotes his upcoming book “Balls”, which argues why young men and sports fans should vote Republican, and says he's going to donate all proceeds to charity and asks the audience which charity he should support.

It's Day 2 of the government shutdown. And we'd like to note that despite the government closing shop, House Republicans have been on vacation since last week, while House Democrats have been showing up to work. Vice President JD Vance told members of the press Wednesday that the real bad guys in the shutdown fight are Democrats, specifically Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. Because, according to Vance, it's Schumer standing in the way of low-income Americans getting much-needed health care assistance, assistance that Republicans cut in President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill." Both Democrats and Republicans have dug in their heels on this shutdown. Democrats want Affordable Care Act subsidies extended and Medicaid cuts reversed. And Republicans are fine with the government being closed – and want to fire thousands of federal employees. So to talk more about the shutdown, its impact on everyday Americans, and what comes next, we spoke to New Jersey Democratic Sen. Andy Kim.And in headlines, federal officials say they plan to reopen an Obama-era immigration program, Israel tries to intercept yet another flotilla attempting to carry humanitarian aid to Gaza, and the Supreme Court ruled that Trump can't just fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook… because he doesn't like her.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week, Jason Kander is joined by Paul Rieckhoff, founder and executive director of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, who is subbing in as host while Ravi travels, to break down Trump's disastrous speech in front of military generals after Pete Hegseth's “Warrior Ethos” address at Quantico, where senior commanders were summoned from across the world and greeted the remarks with stone-cold silence. They analyze Hegseth's social-media boast—“Today, we end the War on Warriors”—the awkward pauses when he expected applause, and the eerie lack of reaction from those in attendance. Kander and Rieckhoff also dive into Trump's rambling, partisan remarks that were wholly inappropriate for a military audience — including his calls to prepare military leadership to accept the use of combat troops against American citizens — and the deep questions that raises about civil-military norms. Plus, they explain the fallout from the government shutdown that began at midnight, which agencies remain open for essential functions, the White House's warning to agencies to prepare for mass firings, and what that uncertainty could mean for ordinary people.

Vice President JD Vance offers an update on the government shutdown and makes a pledge to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.). The Democrat Party is playing defense and acting very offended by memes. Even Democrat lawmakers are admitting that they are behind the government shutdown. Who will cave first over the government shutdown … Republicans or Democrats? Here come the robot waiters! The Israeli prime minister calls Qatar to apologize for a recent strike on that country, and President Trump signs an executive order to protect Qatar from attack.

"We were left with a mess [by the Biden administration]. It was the largest deficit when we weren't in a recession, weren't at war, and [now] we are fixing the deficit," Bessent said. "There could be a discussion, but this isn't the way to have a discussion — shutting down the government and lowering the GDP." "We could see a hit to the GDP, a hit to growth, and a hit to working America."

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this episode, Tom and co-host Drew dive headfirst into today's hottest and most controversial topics, starting with the government shutdown showdown in Washington. Tom breaks down the political theater swirling around healthcare funding—especially the heated debate over providing healthcare for undocumented immigrants—and examines both parties' roles in fueling public anxiety and deepening America's economic woes. The conversation doesn't stop there. Tom and Drew peel back the layers of how ideology, economic decline, and divisive rhetoric are pushing the country toward the edge. They dissect the proposed $1.5 trillion spending increases, discuss the realities of entitlement spending, and Tom calls out both sides of the aisle for political gamesmanship that comes at the expense of future generations. Later in the episode, Tom offers his take on the Trump administration's 20-point peace plan for Gaza, mapping out the ideological and cultural pitfalls ahead. They also marvel at the jaw-dropping evolution of AI with OpenAI Sora 2, discussing how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing creative industries—and bringing it all back to what this means for entrepreneurs, creators, and everyday Americans. Whether you're seeking clarity on the latest policy debates, curious about global conflicts, or just want to be inspired to take action in a rapidly changing world, this episode packs a punch.

Roughly 1 in 10 Americans take antidepressants. The most common type is SSRIs, or  selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, like Prozac, Lexapro, and Zoloft. But what happens when you stop taking them? Studies don't point to a single conclusion, and there's ongoing debate among physicians and patients about the severity and significance of SSRI withdrawal symptoms. The discourse reached a fever pitch when Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. compared SSRI withdrawal to heroin withdrawal in January.Host Flora Lichtman digs into the data on SSRI withdrawal with psychiatrists Awais Aftab and Mark Horowitz.Guests: Dr. Awais Aftab is a clinical associate professor of psychiatry at Case Western Reserve University.Dr. Mark Horowitz is a clinical research fellow in the UK's National Health Service and  scientific co-founder of Outro Health.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

A Trump White House video blames Democrats for the government shutdown — accusing them of pushing $1.5 trillion in spending, “open borders,” and even “health care for illegal aliens.” Chris Cuomo shows how these exaggerated claims are designed to stoke anger, divide voters, and make outrage the easiest path to political wins. Cuomo examines why both parties exploit grievance, how shutdown threats are more about blame than solutions, and the growing role of social media in fueling America's hate machine. He challenges the idea that division is inevitable — and asks what it would take for Americans to stop rewarding politics of outrage.

Story 1: Can you still negotiate with your political opponents while posting memes of them wearing sombreros, while mariachi music blares in the background? That was the question posed to Vice President JD Vance in a viral clip currently circulating the internet as the government faces another day of a partial shutdown. Will explains why Vance's justification of the memes isn't as far-fetched as it may appear, due to some particularly unreasonable demands hidden within the legalese of the Democrat's funding plan. Story 2: British Author and Columnist at the New York Post Douglas Murray joins to discuss Great Britain's free speech crisis and if it represents a bad omen for the US. Will and Douglass discuss the parallels between London mayor Sadiq Khan and Zohran Mamdani, whether Britons feel national pride to the extent Americans do, and how the Founding Father's view of tolerance has been twisted beyond recognition to justify some ridiculous policy decisions.   Story 3: Author, New York Post Columnist, and Host of ‘Pod Force One,' Miranda Devine joins to discuss a recent interview she conducted with Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, during which he revealed some shocking information about his relationship with Epstein. Will and Miranda discuss everything we know about Jeffrey Epstein and his crimes so far, or perhaps more accurately, the concerning lack of information that still remains hidden from public knowledge.   Then, in Final Takes, Will reads some comments from the Willitia, responding to their thoughts on today's show before sharing his top-secret hair routine. Will also reacts to a viral clip of former First Lady Michelle Obama complaining about her husband's chewing habits and Elon Musk reaching a net worth of $500 Billion dollars.   Subscribe to ‘Will Cain Country' on YouTube here: ⁠⁠Watch Will Cain Country! ⁠⁠Follow ‘Will Cain Country' on X (@willcainshow), Instagram (@willcainshow), TikTok (@willcainshow), and Facebook (@willcainnews) Follow Will on X: ⁠⁠@WillCain Learn more about your ad choices.

We are nearly one full day into the partial federal government shutdown and the political blame game is in full force. A vast majority of Democrats are insisting they will never vote for a clean funding bill that the Republicans have put up unless Republicans agree to tack on subsidies that would help Americans afford Obamacare coverage as well as reverse cuts to Medicaid.

The summer has come to a close in a crescendo of chaos. Political violence, confusion and anger are the defining features of the American vibe. And the American vibe, it ain't good. Tension everywhere as new cities are added to the target list seemingly daily. Memphis, LA, New York, Chicago. And now a government shutdown when things couldn't get any more fraught. It's a good time to stay frosty and an even better time to stay vigilant. And now, on the heels of this week's unprecedented speech at Quantico by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and President Trump, we need some perspective.

The federal government shut down on Wednesday for the first time in nearly seven years after Congress failed to reach a funding deal. Historically, shutdowns have proven costly for taxpayers and inconvenient for Americans who travel or rely on government services. Republican South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes shutdowns are ill-advised and what legislation could be implemented to prevent them in the future. A new FOX News Poll shows Democrat Mikie Sherrill ahead of Republican Jack Ciattarelli in New Jersey's competitive gubernatorial race. The closer-than-expected contest in this typically loyal Blue State has both parties speculating about what its outcome might predict for the 2026 and 2028 election cycles. Daron Shaw, a Professor of Government at the University of Texas at Austin and a member of the FOX News Decision Desk, joins the Rundown to discuss why New Jersey is receiving so much attention this fall, which other races are being closely watched this year, and the challenges of polling in the modern age.Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus Learn more about your ad choices.
