Here are 3 Big Things you need to know to start today— Number One— NASCAR Fans went wild in Daytona—as the Beast came rolling in—as President Trump did selfies with Richard Petty among others along pit row—yeah, he's a different kind of President that's for sure— Number Two— The DOGE Department is clawing back billions of dollars that were being squandered—and the sum has exceed $100 Billion so far—and Elon's team is just getting warmed up! Number Three— It's been a month now since Donald J. Trump was sworn into office as the nation's 47th President– and he's making good on his promises to make America great again – and he's doing it at break-neck speed—
Funds invested into Irish technology SMEs reached a new high of €1.48 billion in 2024, or 9% up on the previous year, which itself was a record, according to the Irish Venture Capital Association (IVCA) VenturePulse report, published today in association with William Fry. The association, which marks its 40th anniversary this year, also reported a record fourth quarter in 2024 of €535m, 162% up on the same period the previous year. Mr Gerry Maguire, chairperson, Irish Venture Capital Association, commented: "Growth in the year and final quarter was driven by big investments which demonstrates that Ireland has the capacity to create and scale world class tech firms." However, he described the funding environment for firms looking to raise less than €5m as "choppy". "Deals right across all sizes below €5m fell during 2024 and in quarter four." Artificial Intelligence (AI) accounted for over €100m of the total VC investment into Irish firms last year. Mr Maguire said that the recent impact of Chinese operator DeepSeek is likely to increase, not decrease, appetite by VC investors in the sector. "The arrival of players such as DeepSeek has the potential to boost margins and decrease development costs for AI start-ups. We are potentially witnessing the democratisation and ease of participation by AI developers, in the same way that Software-as-a-Service or cloud computing transformed and disrupted the traditional software model." He pointed out that the DeepSeek-driven sell-off of Nasdaq stocks mostly affected big chip makers or AI platforms of Google, Microsoft and others, not areas in which most Irish AI firms compete. "There is massive potential in AI applications across healthcare, climate, education and other sectors, and this will be boosted by lower costs of development which represents a major opportunity for Ireland." Sarah-Jane Larkin, director general of IVCA, said that fourth quarter and annual data emphasised the potential for the new Government to support investment in early-stage companies. "AI company Nuritas, for example, raised €42m in quarter four, but its first round back in 2015 was just over €100,000. Co Louth-based company XOCEAN raised €115m in this quarter and is now a world leader in sea drone technology." She said that current global economic and political turbulence, largely driven by the new administration in the US, means that the Government's latest €250m Seed & Venture Capital Scheme 2025-2029 "couldn't come at a better time", with applications for the first call of up to €100m to be submitted to Enterprise Ireland by the end of this week (February 20). "This is very welcome as funding for deals below €5m fell sharply across the quarter and the year." Deals in the €3-€5m range fell by 37% to €82m for the year and by 56% to €17.6m for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to the same period the previous year. Funding in the €1-€3m category fell by 24% to €105m for the year and by 63% to €23.6m for the quarter. Investments below €1m declined by 4% to €28.9m for the year and by 19% to €7m for the quarter. Seed funding, or first rounds raised by SMEs, decreased by 4% annually to €127m and by 55% to €17.9m in the quarter. The top five deals in quarter four 2024 were: Dublin headquartered medical device company, Fire1 (€116m); Louth based sea drone developer, XOCEAN (€115m); Dublin headquartered travel software firm, Nuitée (€46m); Dublin headquartered AI company, Nuritas (€42m) and Dublin based fintech firm, NomuPay (€35.9m). Life sciences accounted for 37% (€552.9m) of the total raised in 2024, followed by Software: 13% (€185m); Envirotech: 11% (€161.7m); Fintech: 8% (€119m) and Data: 8% (€115m). 217 deals were completed in 2024, similar to the previous year (216). "In view of global headwinds, we should be ambitious and aiming to double this," added Sarah-Jane Larkin.

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. Today's episode brings us to new territory, as the TOUR's allows for more granular stats: how does green firmness affect how close a Tour pro can get to the pin? In this episode, Mark and Greg guess the median proximity for soft, medium, and hard greens. Lou brings the answer—and it will likely surprise you. How much difference do you think it makes? The guys then give a short discussion about how to make changes to your game to adjust to conditions so that you can shoot your best scores.

He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.” John Zmirak's new book: No Second Amendment, No First by John Zmirak Available March 19, 2024 Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine. But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion? This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries. Zmirak further shows how today's mounting threats to the gun rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment are inexorably linked to the Article from John Zmirak. Elon and His Team Inside the Deep State Are Frodo and Sam in Mordor By John Zmirak Published on February 12, 2025 John Zmirak The more we see our country's ruling elites in action, using unelected judges to twist the Constitution and deprive our elected president of his legitimate authority, the more crucial it is for us to embrace a paradigm shift. We must change how we see our government and the system we now live under — radically. Perhaps because for the past three Mondays I've been viewing the extended, almost four-hour versions of Peter Jackson's masterful The Lord of Rings trilogy, I can't help viewing the paradigm shift we need in Tolkien's mythic terms. Put bluntly, we don't live in Gondor under the flawed steward Denethor anymore, as we did in past decades. Or even in Rohan, with King Theoden bewitched by his evil advisor Wormtongue (and behind him the wizard Saruman). We live in Mordor. Yes, it's a place where elves and the Men of the West have just scored a rare, if incomplete victory. But the war is far from over. The rulers of Mordor weaponized the COVID panic to impose a public health dictatorship, lock us in our homes, close our churches, censor our media, force untested vaccines into our arms, kill our seniors by dumping virus patients in nursing homes, then incincerating them as medical waste, graft the cells of newly aborted babies onto the scalps of mice (using taxpayer funds, approved by Regime evangelical Francis Collins, never criticized by globalist Pope Francis), steal the 2020 election, and imprison peaceful protestors. The people who did all that weren't misguided, overzealous, or grossly misinformed. They were orcs, and their leaders were Nazgul. They were hungry for absolute power — and for a while they seemed to have it. At least they acted that way — as if the whip would always be in their hands no matter what we did. That's why such people felt entitled to gloat when patriotic black entrepreneur Hermann Cain died of COVID after attending a Donald Trump rally, even as they unleashed mobs of looters and rioters on our cities in honor of career criminal George Floyd. And now those same elites are using their top-notch legal teams and biased judges to cling to every scrap of money and power they took from us during the years of that dictatorship the same way that Communist judges in Poland clung to their privileges after Solidarity got elected and loyal Nazis tried to keep their privileges after 1945. How else to explain a federal judge telling the appointed, duly confirmed Secretary of the Treasury that he can't view his own department's computer files? Or demanding that race-based discrimination be reimposed — against the president's policies? As I watched The Return of the King, with Frodo and Sam cautiously working their way into the heart of Sauron's kingdom, aiming to hurl the corrupting Ring of Power into the fires where it was forged, I couldn't help thinking of the hobbits attempting to do the same for us right now: Elon Musk and his plucky team of brilliant young hackers and analysts. They're the ones exposing the “humanitarian” programs of USAID that tried to convince young African boys that they might be trans, to intimidate Latin American governments into legalizing abortion, and to censor the global media in support of the COVID lockdowns and the useless Ukraine war. Just yesterday, the news broke that in only three weeks, they've saved American taxpayers a BILLION dollars — the vast majority of it coming from cutting DEI efforts within government programs. And now Musk's team members are being hunted, getting doxed and demonized in our media, with corrupt prosecutors and judges seeking ways to cripple their efforts and maybe even arrest them (as they arrested and imprisoned Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro). What can we do on these heroes' behalf? First of all we can pray, and it's our duty to get busy doing that. Secondly we can emulate what Aragorn, Gandalf, and the other heroes did after defending Minas Tirith: They marched to Sauron's gate, braved the full force of his armies, and took his attention away from the genuine threat he faced. We must do a similar service for Trump and his team. We must loudly support whatever peaceful measures, whatever innovative deployment of presidential power he attempts, to defy these biased judges and impose the will of the people — as expressed in the 2024 election, which the orcs weren't able to steal. Pope Francis Goes Full Alexander VI, Appointing Leftist Bishops Who Wield Excommunication Threats A pope more interested in leftist politics than in maintaining his church's historic teachings or protecting children from harm has started meddling directly in the enforcement of our country's just, democratically enacted laws: The Vatican has appointed Edward Weisenburger to be Archbishop of Detroit. As Lifesitenews reports: In 2018, at the USCCB's Spring Assembly in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the prelate suggested that Catholics who “are involved” in the detention of immigrants and separation of families at the U.S. border might receive “canonical penalties” usually used in “life issues” cases, which could include excommunication. “For the salvation of these people's souls, maybe it's time for us to look at canonical penalties,” Weisenburger claimed at the time. In other words, if you're a Catholic who advocates for a secure U.S. border and only legal immigration going forward, this guy wants to see you excommunicated. Make no mistake, Weisenburger spent the COVID panic serving the Nazgul and the orcs: The 64-year-old Weisenburger, a canon lawyer, was among the most stringent in America in applying restrictions on the faithful during the COVID crisis, closing churches and implementing mask mandates in the spring of 2020 while encouraging Catholics to take the abortion-tainted COVID-19 jabs. Weisenburger released a statement in September 2021 instructing all priests within his Arizona diocese “not to cooperate with any individuals seeking our endorsement of an exemption from vaccine or facemask mandates based specifically upon our Catholic faith.” He added that “[a]ll current anti-COVID-19 vaccines may be received by the faithful without moral compromise.” Upon reopening churches to public Masses in October 2020, the bishop stressed that the dispensation from attendance “remains in place and I have consistently encouraged those identified by the Centers for Disease Control as ‘at-risk' to not attend Mass in person, but rather to view a televised or internet Mass from home.” He also issued a directive to priests not to distribute Holy Communion in the mouth and to only hear the Sacrament of Confession outdoors. Later, in 2021, Weisenburger signed a letter alongside eight other U.S. prelates aligning themselves with the LGBT activist group Tyler Clementi Foundation, which seeks to “reduce the shame and stigma” of homosexual lifestyles. In line with Pope Francis, the archbishop-elect has also made “climate change” a central issue, calling it a matter of “life and death” and thanking the Pope for focusing on the topic in his encyclical Laudato Si' and subsequent apostolic exhortation Laudate Deum. The Pope Rebukes J.D. Vance for Repeating Real Catholic Doctrine Pope Francis has gone further, issuing a document implicitly rebuking Vice President J.D. Vance (a Catholic convert) for reiterating traditional Catholic (and perennial Christian teaching) that we owe special duties to our families, neighbors, and fellow citizens that we don't owe to foreign invaders or fake asylum seekers. In his statement, Francis condemns “any measure that tacitly or explicitly identifies the illegal status of some migrants with criminality.” Never mind that the Catholic Catechism teaches that to earn the right to welcome, immigrants must obey their new countries' laws. According to Francis, doing illegal things isn't “criminal,” and if you can't wrap your mind around that logic, you might find yourself outside the church. Will patriotic Catholics cave at the threat of unjust (and therefore in God's eyes, null and void) excommunications? Not if they're like Trump's border czar Tom Homan: Don't miss Jules Gomes's coverage later this morning of the corrupt, scandal-plagued Vatican aid agency CARITAS, which soaks up U.S. taxpayer money and whose leader is joining Francis's chorus of sycophants denouncing American law and demanding that Catholics flout it. Along The Stream… Up later this morning, be sure to watch the great Naomi Wolf expose the extent to which forced vaccination laws backed by Big Pharma still impinge on parents' rights to watch over their children's health. Also later today, Pastor Shane Idleman offers a powerful video message on biblical self-discipline, self-control, and the corporal means we can use to achieve those, including fasting. John Zmirak is a senior editor at The Stream and author or coauthor of 14 books, including The Politically Incorrect Guide to Immigration and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism. His newest book is No Second Amendment, No First.

Victor Davis Hanson joins us to close out the week. The world renowned Classics and Military historian walks us through the recent developments with Ukraine and the Middle East. Trump truthed out that he had a very lengthy and productive phone call with Vladimir Putin. Putin agreed that common sense is needed and both expressed their desire to put an end to the carnage. Newly appointed Defense Secretary aptly stated that the idea of Ukraine becoming a part of NATO is out of the picture and Ukraine should not expect its borders to return to a pre 2014 map. Trump's proposal on Gaza was something no one had considered and forced King Abdullah of Jordan's hand when considering receiving displaced Palestinians. Will surrounding countries like Egypt be forced to step next? The abuse of hostages is widely known and Hamas cannot be trusted when reporting the amount and conditions of remaining hostages as Trump's deadline rapidly approaches. Once able to subsidize the many countries the U.S. trades with, our overwhelming debt has inspired President Trump to balance the trading deficit. China has a Trillion dollar surplus on trade, Canada has a 100 Billion dollar surplus and Mexico has a 170 Billion dollar surplus on trade. Victor breaks down how the tariffs will be effective and other measures need to lower our 36 Trillion dollar debt.

Why do people hesitate and or procrastinate when they have the blueprint on making money, investing, or starting their business? The answer is buried in the neuro-mechanics of success—how our brains are wired for survival, not wealth.In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and neuroscience expert, John Assaraf and back to our days of working with Bob Proctor, learning the power of mindset, belief, and visualization.Over the years, we both realized that thinking positive and making vision boards alone won't make you rich. Success isn't just about setting intentions—it's about taking the right actions, in the right order, at the right time.Listen in to part 1 of 2 as we break down the real reason why so many people struggle to apply wealth-building strategies, even when they know exactly what to do. Spoiler alert: it's not laziness or lack of opportunity but rather how the brain is wired for survival, not success. If you've ever wondered why you're not making the money you want—even though you've read all the books, taken the courses, and set your goals—this episode is for you. Let's break through those mental barriers and start taking action toward real wealth.Loral's Takeaways:Introduction to John Assaraf and His Background (01:42)Entrepreneurial Journey and Early Insights (03:16)The Law of Goya and Practical Application (07:19)Neuro Mechanics and Emotional Regulation (14:23)The Role of Environment and Inner Size (27:48)Meet John Assaraf:As CEO and co-founder, he grew Re/Max of Indiana from startup to 85 offices and 1200 sales associates who sold over $4 Billion a year.John was also one of the founders of Bamboo/IPIX that went public on NASDAQ with a market cap of $2.5 Billion.John has written 4 books including 2 New York Times best sellers that have been translated to 35 languages.

This quarter of the Future of Agriculture podcast is made possible by Case IH: https://www.caseih.com/en-us/unitedstatesJ.R. Simplot: A billion the hard way by Louie AtteberySimplot company website“During World War II, Jack Simplot's plants produced thirty-three million pounds of dehydrated potatoes and five million pounds of dehydrated onion to fuel America's fighting men and women. In the 1960s, he helped McDonald's chief Ray Kroc turn the french fry into a national staple. In the 1980s, the Idaho farm boy with the eighth grade education played a major role in making the personal computer a household word. And as a new century begins, the company and the man show little sign of resting on the laurels.”That is from the book J.R. Simplot: A Billion the Hard Way by Louie Attebery which tells the incredible life story of J.R. Simplot, more commonly known as Jack Simplot. Today Simplot is a household name for those of us in agribusiness. The diversified global company has business interests in farming, ranching and cattle production, food processing, food brands, phosphate mining, fertilizer manufacturing, and other enterprises related to agriculture. But the humble beginnings it came from and the incredible evolution of the company has a lot of insights for all of us interested in the future of agriculture and is the focus of today's history of agriculture episode. Brought to you by Case IH: Case IH designs,engineers and produces cutting-edge farm equipment based on a comprehensive understanding of farmers' needs, wants and challenges, integrating these insights into their development and manufacturing.For example, take their Model Year 25 Magnum tractor. The new Magnum is purposefully designed to answer farmers' needs in every design and engineering choice. Improved horsepower for pulling heavier loads, faster. Bundled, integrated and ready-to-go precision tech for greater accuracy in the field. And a transmission farmers can tweak for improved control and performance in different tasks. That kind of design thinking is exactly where the future of ag is headed, and that's why you'll be hearing me talk to the folks at Case IH at different points throughout this quarter about what they do and how they're working to push the ag forward.

Nick meets with LinkedIn expert Matt Lakijev to explore the power of leveraging LinkedIn for lead generation and business growth. Matt shares his journey from being a professional latte artist to excelling in sales at Zoom, and ultimately launching his own successful business, Seven Figure Creators. The conversation delves into the importance of personalised connection requests, effective use of LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and the mindset shifts necessary for entrepreneurs to overcome their fears around sales and lead generation. With practical tips and insights, this episode is a must-listen for business owners looking to harness the potential of LinkedIn to scale their operations and connect with their ideal clients. KEY TAKEAWAYS When sending connection requests on LinkedIn, adding personalised messages that reference mutual connections or shared interests significantly increases acceptance rates. Aim for high relevance to make recipients feel valued. Utilise LinkedIn Sales Navigator to build targeted lists of current and past clients, as well as lookalike clients. This tool allows for detailed profiling, helping to identify potential leads based on specific criteria. To generate leads effectively, business owners should understand the volume of outreach required. Sending a high number of personalised connection requests (up to 200 per week) can lead to substantial growth in connections and potential leads. LinkedIn is a networking platform where genuine connections matter. Avoid aggressive sales pitches in initial outreach; instead, aim to build rapport and trust with potential clients over time. Overcoming the fear of rejection and the mindset that leads to procrastination is essential for success in sales and lead generation. Taking action, even if imperfect, is more beneficial than waiting for the perfect moment or message. BEST MOMENTS "There's a power when you write yourself and the self-reflection and the thinking stuff that you go through." "I think most people procrastinate doing lead generation because they think about things for a long time." "You want to make them feel that you're so far removed from a salesperson." "If you want to grow, sales is the basic fundamental." "Perfection is the lowest standard you can have."

CBS raised eyebrows last fall when two of its shows aired Kamala Harris giving different answers to the same question during a "60 Minutes" interview. Donald Trump is suing the network, claiming $20 billion in damages, while the FCC takes comments on a public complaint of “news distortion." But what does the full CBS tape reveal, and does it even make sense for the FCC to regulate broadcast news, in an era of endless unregulated cable TV, podcasts, and internet streaming?

Cloud storage used to be a sleepy part of the computing world but, with artificial intelligence becoming cheaper than ever, the companies collecting and protecting that data are now a hot investment. That includes cloud storage company Box, which has seen its stock climb nearly 40% this year.
