Donald Trump's Attorney General Pam Bondi apparently believes that she is above the law. She blatantly violated the Epstein Files Transparency Act by releasing only a small fraction of the files which is in violation of federal law. Bondi's lawlessness is serving to cover up the crimes of countless rich, influential, connected men. The two sponsors of the bill, (one a Republican and one Democrat) have announced they are drawing up articles of impeachment for Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche for their obvious, cavalier, and even and militant violation of federal law.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency would be required to create a universal disaster assistance application under a bill passed by the Senate last week. The goal of the Disaster Assistance Simplification Act is to make it easier for disaster survivors to access federal aid. Lawmakers say the current process is complex and time consuming, with different agencies using different forms. The bill would also require all information shared between FEMA and partner agencies to meet federal data security standards.

1. Immigration and Housing Mass immigration under President Biden increased rental demand and housing prices. Trump’s deportations and border enforcement are lowering rents and home prices. Median age of first-time homebuyers is rising above 40 (highest since WWI). Wharton study: “Every 1% population increase → rents up 1%.” Recent rent declines (−1.1% YoY, −5.2% vs. 2022 peak).

In a significant move addressing the contentious debate over race and history, Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland of Washington's 10th District is spearheading a bipartisan initiative to prevent the reinstatement of Confederate names on U.S. military bases. This effort comes in response to the Trump administration's indication of plans to reverse previous renaming efforts aimed at promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Political commentator Opio Sokoni joins the Rhythm & News Podcast to talk more about this issue. Interview by Chris B. Bennett.

The organization targets three core stakeholders: the corporate world, policymakers, and investors seeking startups where environmental solutions are baked into the bottom line. Peter Simek, EarthX's CEO, explains how reframing climate action around shared values—stewardship, economic opportunity, and love of the land—unlocks support that crisis messaging alone cannot reach.The doom story doesn't sell, Simek explained. “We're not motivated as a species by doomsday language. It puts people in fight-or-flight mode.” He points out how climate became an identity issue, tangled up in culture-war debates over hamburgers and gas-powered trucks, when the real conversation should center on clean air, clean water, and protecting the places we love. “The EPA and the Clean Air and Clean Water Act were passed during the Nixon administration,” he notes. “There are ways to message this that appeals across lines.”Simek bets heavily on bottom-up action as EarthX works to build bridges. States, cities, and private capital often move faster than federal mandates, he argues, and they're harder to reverse with a single executive order. Texas leads the nation in renewable energy deployment because wind and solar make bottom-line sense. “Even as there's a policy turn against it, there's still the driving reality that solar and wind are viable energy sources,” he says. A new event in 2026, the EarthX Institute, will focus on two policy priorities: nuclear energy, where bipartisan consensus is growing, and urban biodiversity.Whether conversations at forums like EarthX translate into policy velocity that matches the pace of climate impacts remains to be seen. Simek says he stays focused on tracking downstream results, specifically the investments funded, the coalitions built, and the policies incubated from the local level up. “It's about finding those ways in which there's common sense, common ground, common values,” he says. “Elements to talking about nature and the environment that no one can really disagree with.”Learn more about EarthX and its upcoming April 2026 conference at earthx.org.Subscribe to Sustainability In Your Ear on iTunesFollow Sustainability In Your Ear on Spreaker, iHeartRadio, or YouTube

Last week, President Trump said he had no problem with the Pentagon releasing classified video of the boat strike that killed two survivors clinging to wreckage, but today he says he didn't say that.

Members of Congress from both parties are now supporting the release of the video showing the U.S. carrying out a double-tap strike on a speed boat in the Caribbean. The move reportedly killed two survivors of the initial attack that were in distress.

A political and military firestorm is unfolding in Washington as lawmakers investigate whether the Trump administration attempted to shift blame onto a Navy admiral for a controversial “second strike” on a suspected drug-smuggling vessel. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth insists he's supporting his commanders, while the White House claims Admiral Frank M. Bradley directed the follow-on attack—despite reports suggesting Hegseth may have personally ordered the lethal strike. In this video, we break down the timeline, the competing accounts, and the mounting evidence behind the alleged September 2 incident, including:
Might this be the last of the special elections in Georgia this year? No, there's another on the 9th (ranked choice would eliminate this silliness). Still, a tight Tennessee Congressional special election could signal shifting political winds. Nick Alex, a Democrat running in Georgia's gerrymandered 9th District, joined the show today. What happens in Tennessee today could be a bellwether for his campaign, centered on affordability, rural health care, and persuading voters who feel left behind by their own party. Then there are the mounting concerns around Pete Hegseth seemingly finding war crimes without a war. Allegations of an unlawful second strike on a drug boat — a story with a Georgia twist: did Admiral Alvin Holsey, a Morehouse grad and Georgia native, resign because of this strike? The alignment is uncanny. Bipartisan sharks are circling, Pete. At today's Cabinet knob-slob, VP JD Vance went off on the Biden presidency - granted rent-free space in this administration's head, apparently, on affordability issues that pre-date Biden, like housing costs (hint: it isn't undocumented immigrants, couch canoodler) to "green new deal" investment hurting agri-business (because climate change hasn't?).The Cato Institute's Adam Michel - Director of Tax Policy Studies - joined to parse out who really wins with Trump's new “baby accounts,” and CBS News' Michael Wallace gave seniors a last-minute reminder as Medicare enrollment nears its deadline.OH, it's Giving Tuesday: consider Lost-N-Found Youth, please and thanks!Tune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!

A bipartisan group of lawmakers is calling for an investigation into a so-called "double tap" strike by the US military, targeting survivors from an alleged drug trafficking vessel.

The Ochelli Effect 11-13-2025 SNAFU NEWSUnplug and Play?Another attempt to reveal truth to people that really do not want itBefore presenting things on here I go beyond headlines and spin. What is that you might ask? Well, I examine and research incidents and events as told by a diverse group of sites online mostly, and after gathering what I think may be the alleged facts portrayed by Left, Right, and some niche variations on the event or incident I seek independent verification and corroboration about the representations, allegations and reporting that is often condensed and bias to such a degree that the obvious agenda to insight reactions from targeted potential audiences and create misleading narratives or distortion of reality and fabrication of narratives is the only obvious business model that I find most often undeniable. The above mentioned process along with and frankly generated by , making phone calls to involved agencies, reading legislation or other documents often given citations in the due course of reporting by others, and fact checking with neutral parties and reliable reference resources along with a handful of trade secrets is the minimum of what I do when analyzing and reporting on The Ochelli Effect. A wide range of results are gathered over anywhere from 8 to 12 hours of work investigating the claims and varsity of multiple narratives that often boil down to 3 to 6 sections on a one hour long podcast that I present with 10% of the resource links offered in show notes that were actually utilized to simply give you the listener step 1 of maybe 20 steps taken in a personal investigation uniquely cultivated by the host speaker that actually cares about representing something meaningful to you in your search for real information and Truth with some mockery of issues that seem worthy of it and a joke or two as that has been requested by listeners recently. Am I biased? Yes. My bias is based on the desire to eliminate the pre-packaged talking points of those who only seek to influence your outrage and fear for profit from your information and news feeds as best I am able to. This is not a popular thing to do and if you are a listener to the Ochelli Effect for any length of time the only thing you are actually guaranteed is discomfort. Because we are all subject to the programing attempts to manipulate our reactions and full spectrum views of the world around us through carefully engineered means on a constant timeline. Though I am subject to the same algorithm driven targeted attempts to twist my reality I constantly rive to do the one thing it seems hardly any other independent media creator has any interest in doing. That one thing is to think for myself and examine the truest real events and newsworthy incidents honestly and clearly. This is what my wish is for any listener I have, regarding history, current events, and the illusions presented by millions of other podcasts and content creators should be heard and viewed by TOE listeners with a clarity not found elsewhere that is REAL. Think for yourselves , TRULY. See facts and reality, NOT SPIN. All the above is lightly sprinkled with some opinions but not driven by them.If I have time I might release a partial replay of the 11-7-25 call-in show where a time-wasting energy sucking argument between myself and 1 caller started as a friendly chat and devolved into unlistenable noise that illustrates perfectly that I am offering a product that may simply no longer have a place. As the Friday Night Show continues to destroy my efforts, It makes me believe that I may not have the time to wait out the current political and social trends that require siding with pre-approved propaganda without fail or suffer the consequences.I haven't Changed much, but I have learned many things so my base of knowledge has evolved.If you don't want that, Sorry, I don't know how to be any other way.Chuck---POINTS OF INTEREST : CAUSE AND EFFECT : IF YOU MISSED ITJFK's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, announces 2026 run for Nadler's seat in Congresshttps://abcnews.go.com/Politics/jfks-grandson-jack-schlossberg-announces-2026-run-nadlers/story?id=127440606Food-snatching seagulls are more likely to leave you alone if you shout at them, researchers sayhttps://apnews.com/article/shouting-scares-seagulls-eating-food-study-3893363e30db5f99462526a168fe0555?Israel's longest war is leaving a trail of traumatized soldiers, with suicides also on the risehttps://apnews.com/article/israel-soldiers-mental-health-suicide-gaza-war-d4f3b7a26c9ce0bce861c090afb101ea?Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid.

Nolan Gray — Senior Director of Legislation and Research at California YIMBY — is in good traffic this week for a discussion on how the state with America's biggest housing problem has become a national leader in reforming the rules of the built environment. California is often treated as both a cautionary tale and a blueprint — derided for its crises yet envied for its innovation. Nolan walks us through California's last decade of housing policy evolution — from failed early bills like SB 827 and SB 50 to seismic wins like SB 79, which legalized mid-rise multifamily housing near transit, and AB 130, which exempted infill housing from certain environmental reviews.

Bipartisan political analyst Kirsten Powers is sharing her take on how we can remain true to ourselves while also believing for the good of others. She realized that the rage that was filling her heart in the midst of delivering news was absolutely destroying her. Take a listen to hear what she did to find healing. You may have heard this conversation before, and that's because I've been in South Africa this week and the episode I thought I recorded is nowhere to be found.

If only we had a real government shutdown. During the supposed shutdown, we have seen the formulation of several terrible economic and foreign policies. I begin with some bad news about this administration's coddling of Islamic figures. Next, we move on to the economy. We all complained throughout the Biden administration that we had a crony economy that only worked for a handful of tech companies and that a centrally controlled economy left hardworking Americans in the dust. We complained about stagflation under Biden and asserted that government reports were fraudulent. Well, what has changed? We're joined today by Tracy Shuchart, senior economist at NinjaTrader, who offers a fiscal checkup of our economy and shows how the stagflation is worse than ever. She offers analysis of capital markets, banking, commodities, and precious metals so we can navigate the limited investment options in an era of mob boss government control of our economy. Both parties complain about stagflation, but in reality, both parties support the underlying causes and they both deny it exists when their guy is in power. Learn more about your ad choices.
