Box Elder Commission approves new data center moratorium -- Utah's Rep. Mike Kennedy joins Democrats in vote against FISA surveillance extension

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a historic first for American energy exports as federal regulators have approved construction of a five-billion-dollar floating platform to produce liquefied natural gas for export in U.S. waters. The controversial project, led by Delfin Midstream of Houston, will be located forty miles off the coast of Louisiana and is expected to begin production in 2030, with Samsung Heavy Industries constructing the platforms and MOL of Japan also connected to the venture. Meanwhile, the e-commerce giant's full entry into the less-than-truckload market is sparking fierce debate over whether Amazon can truly disrupt the LTL space with its asset-light model of roughly thirty terminals. While the announcement sent shares of publicly traded LTL carriers modestly lower, analysts are largely skeptical, noting that Amazon's offering is more akin to what brokers provide and will likely compete primarily with the economy three-to-four-day sub-segment rather than premium service lanes. Finally, we cover a potential lifeline for the embattled van trailer builder as the Commerce Department imposed preliminary countervailing duties on Chinese and Mexican trailer imports ranging from eighty-two to one hundred twenty-nine percent on Chinese products. The decision, which came as S&P Global Ratings downgraded Wabash to B-, will require importers to immediately begin posting cash deposits at the preliminary rates, providing relief to domestic manufacturers facing intense foreign competition.

Thanks to our sponsor! Explore crypto careers that could change your future at https://crypto.fidelitycareers.com The CFTC approved a perpetual Bitcoin futures contract for KalshiEX, and crypto Twitter immediately got it wrong. Katherine Kirkpatrick Bos untangles what actually changed, why the switch from swap to futures classification matters for retail access, and what the ruling leaves wide open on leverage and decentralized exchanges. Jessi Brooks and Katherine explore the fact that AI agents can now place orders, not just give advice. They revisit their paper "The Agents at the Gate" and make clear why Robinhood's move to let agents charge your Gold Card raises liability questions that existing consumer protection law was never built to answer. In the strangest segment, they also dug into a New York lawsuit where an anonymous plaintiff is claiming legal ownership of nearly 40,000 dormant crypto wallets.

More than six square miles of an aquifer under Montana's Rocky Mountain Front has been removed from federal protections and slated for wastewater. The change comes despite overwhelming opposition from the local community.

AI Kills 10% of Jobs at META. Pentagon Fires Stars and Stripes' Ombudsman. GTFO ICE. Prince Harry Goes to Ukraine—Trump Craps on Him. Friday Football: Draft Weekend. Corruption is the top topic, and it's bleeding into the ranks. A Fort Bragg special forces sergeant just got indicted for using classified intel to bet $400,000 on Polymarket about the Maduro operation. The acting secretary of culture war, Pete Hegseth, is leaking on Signal, firing 21 generals, and floating "no quarter" from the Pentagon podium. Three carrier strike groups are now stacked in the Middle East. NATO allies are being threatened with suspension. And Trump is openly contemplating federal troops in Chicago, New York, and beyond. This is what a sucking chest wound looks like — and the bleeding isn't stopping. Paul sits down with author, filmmaker, and combat journalist Sebastian Junger for a no-BS conversation about the question every American needs to be asking: will the military follow illegal orders? They walk through the murky chain — from a tactical nuke on Tehran to American troops on the streets of Cincinnati — and land on the real circuit breakers that remain: Chairman Dan Cain, the 21 fired generals, and an Angry Middle that still trusts the 82nd Airborne more than it trusts ICE. Plus the GTFO ICE campaign, the firing of the Stars and Stripes ombudsman, the 20,000 abducted Ukrainian children, and why removing Hegseth is the winnable fight right now. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Ditch your expensive carrier and support Independent Americans!
