In this week's bonus show, we break down the absolutely chilling congressional hearing where North Korean newscaster Pam Bondi shilled for an elite pedophile network. Under oath in Congress, Bondi dangled Wall Street profits as a bribe to look the other way on child trafficking. This rot goes deeper than Trump or Epstein. We are now living through the "Great Disillusionment," the moment we realize the "polite" elites are complicit and no one is coming to save us but ourselves. The only justice that has been achieved for Epstein's victims was because they, their advocates, a free press, and the people united to demand it. We the People forced the Epstein files to be released. This is just the beginning–the criminals can no longer hide in the dark.

“I Don't Bribe”: Active Citizenship Takes on Everyday Corruption

Afternoon Drive with John Maytham

Corruption is often discussed in relation to politics and big business, but for many South Africans it plays out in far more everyday moments, particularly on the roads and in routine interactions with law enforcement, where small acts of bribery can quietly become normalised. Feizel Mamdoo speaks to John Maytham about his new Johannesburg-based anti-corruption initiative that aims to challenge this culture from the ground up. The former anti-apartheid activist, film maker, and communications expert has launched the “I Don’t Bribe” campaign, encouraging motorists to take a visible stand against bribery and to commit to responsible, law-abiding behaviour. Built with in-kind support from a designer and donations from members of the public, the campaign includes a windscreen decal carrying a clear message to both motorists and officials, while also promoting road safety by discouraging drivers from using bribes to avoid accountability for traffic offences that could endanger lives. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.

Housing, Credit cards, Fannie and Freddie - all in week's work.. - Retail investors in control - don't care about the noise Markets - DJIA plowing ahead - NASDAQ on fire - what can stop this? - Nuclear stocks back in play - Defense names on the move - Interesting economic news. FIRST - President Donald Trump said drug “cartels are running Mexico,” and suggested the U.S. military could start land strikes against them there. - The comments come on the heels of suggestions that Trump could take military action in Cuba and Colombia, and to annex Greenland. - The Trump administration has reportedly carried out 35 known strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean, killing 115 individuals. - I will be going to Mexico later this week for a couple of days..... Retail Ruling - Retail traders have extended a buying spree into the new year, following a record-setting performance in 2025, with purchases in the first four trading days of January hitting the second-highest level in almost eight months. - Individual investors have bought about $10.1 billion of US equities since the start of the year, mainly via exchange-traded funds, far exceeding the 12-month weekly average. - Retail investors' confidence has helped stabilize markets during recent pullbacks, and if they keep snapping up equities, gains in the US stock market are likely to persist, according to analysts. Employment Report - 4.4% Unemployment Rate - Nonfarm Payroll Employment: U.S. employers added +50,000 jobs in December 2025. This came in below economists' expectations (consensus around 60,000–73,000) and was a slowdown from the downwardly revised +56,000 in November. - Unemployment Rate: Edged down slightly to 4.4% (from a revised 4.5% in November), contrary to forecasts of 4.5%. The number of unemployed people remained around 7.5 million, showing little change. - Full-Year 2025 Performance: Total payroll growth for the year was just +584,000 jobs (average monthly gain of +49,000), marking one of the weakest years for hiring since 2020 (impacted by the pandemic). This is a sharp drop from +2.0 million added in 2024 (average +168,000 monthly). -Revisions to Prior Months: -- October 2025: Revised down to -173,000 (from -105,000, reflecting federal government buyouts and shutdown effects). -- November 2025: Revised down by 8,000 to +56,000. -- Combined October–November: 76,000 fewer jobs than previously reported. GDP - HOT - Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari (voting FOMC member) on CNBC says it is very surprising how strong GDP growth is; says labor market is clearly cooling; says inflation still too high; has confidence housing inflation will trend down - Q3 at +3.8% and Atlanta GDP NOW is predicting that Q4 will come in at +5.1% More Eco - Productivity (Prelim Q3): 4.9% vs. 2.5% consensus - Productivity measures output per hour worked. A jump to 4.9% (almost double the consensus) suggests businesses are producing much more per labor hour than expected. Prior was revised up to 4.1% from 3.3%, so the trend is strengthening. WOW! Unit Labor Costs (Prelim Q3): -1.9% vs. +0.8% consensus - Unit labor costs measure labor cost per unit of output. A negative number means costs per unit are falling. Prior revised to -2.9% from +1.0%, so costs have been dropping sharply. -Could be due to technology adoption, automation, or efficiency improvements. Post-pandemic restructuring and leaner operations may have boosted output without adding labor. OOOOOOOPS - White House official says Truth Social disclosure of December jobs report was an "inadvertent release"; says White House will review protocols - CNBC  What next? - President Donald Trump called for a one-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10%, effective Jan. 20, without specifying details. - Trump wrote on social media that the American Public will no longer be "ripped off" by Credit Card Companies that are charging Interest Rates of 20 to 30%, and even more. - Maybe because of this: Hours before his message on Friday, Senator Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent, said on X: “Trump promised to cap credit card interest rates at 10% and stop Wall Street from getting away with murder. Instead, he deregulated big banks charging up to 30% interest on credit cards.” - BUT! Credit card companies will not be forced to issue credit - right? It will hurt people that need credit for business, personal or other needs. Then there was this: - Mortgage rates fell sharply on Friday, a day after President Donald Trump said on social media that he is instructing mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy $200 billion in mortgage bonds. - “This will drive Mortgage Rates DOWN, monthly payments DOWN, and make the cost of owning a home more affordable,” he said in the Truth Social post. - Still not clear where the money will come from and hot this actually works with the current structure of Fannie and Freddie - Talk of Fannie/Freddie IPO? --- Both are still still in conservatorship and book value per share still negative - SO WHERE DOES MONEY COME FROM? OHHHHH - How about this - 4PM browbeating for the Defense companies - RTX was in the hotseat (as were others) taking the wrath of Pres Trump saying that they were basically fat and happy and ripping off the taxpayer - No more dividends and no more buybacks was the call - Stocks dropped 5% into the close and then more after - 30 minutes later - conversation changed and the idea of a move from $1T in spending for the defense budget should move to $1.5T in 2027. ----- Where does that money come from? - Stocks JUMPED! Can't Ignore this - Trump suggesting that Corporations and institutional investors cannot buy single family homes - “People live in homes, not corporations,” he said. - The argument is that corporate ownership has helped push housing further out of reach for everyday Americans. - It is for that reason, and much more, that I am immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single-family homes, and I will be calling on Congress to codify it. - Invitation Homes, which is the largest renter of single-family homes in the country, tumbled 6%. Shares of Blackstone, an investing firm that owns and rents single-family homes, dropped more than 5%. Private equity firm Apollo Global Management also declined over 5%. Then there is this... - DOJ putting he screws to Powell - The Trump administration has ramped up its pressure campaign on the U.S. central bank, threatening to indict Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell over comments he made to Congress about a building renovation project, prompting the Fed chief to call the move a "pretext" to gain more influence over the ?setting of interest rates. - The latest development in a long-running effort by U.S. President Donald Trump to push the Fed to dramatically lower rates had immediate fallout in Washington and on global markets. - Powell came out with a video over the weekend. - Initially futures were down

One of the most common concerns we hear from parents, teachers, and even ABA professionals is, “Isn't that just bribery?” In this episode, we dig into the long-standing confusion between bribery and reinforcement and explain why the difference truly matters. We walk through real-life examples, from grocery store meltdowns to classroom expectations, to show how timing, intent, and planning change everything.We unpack why reinforcement is not about quick fixes or paying for behavior but about intentionally teaching skills, building motivation, and supporting long-term success. We also discuss how poorly planned reinforcement can unintentionally strengthen the very behaviors we are trying to reduce and why coercive “reminders” can feel just as uncomfortable as outright threats.Along the way, we share practical strategies for using reinforcement ethically and compassionately, including how to individualize it, avoid power struggles, and reframe “if then” language into more supportive “when then” statements. If you have ever worried that reinforcement feels wrong or been told it is, this episode will help you feel confident, grounded, and aligned with both the science and your values.What's Inside:The real difference between bribery and reinforcementWhy timing and intent matter more than the reward itselfHow reinforcement can accidentally backfire if misusedEthical, compassionate ways to use reinforcement effectivelyMentioned in This Episode:Episode 127: Classroom ReinforcementWhat is ACT in ABA?

The UFC arrives in AEC. And we're live from the AEC Octagon.In the very first episode of our brand-new Bricks & Bytes Debates series, we are trading PR statements for sparring gloves. We're putting two industry heavyweights head-to-head to battle out one of the hottest topics in construction: Has AI actually solved estimating?In this no-holds-barred contester series, our contenders took the gloves off to represent the extreme Bull and Bear cases for Artificial Intelligence:• In the Red Corner: Mike "Mighty" Powers (Co-Founder, BuildVision), arguing that LLMs have solved the extraction problem and the industry needs to embrace the "Waymo" era of automation.• In the Blue Corner: Luigi "The Stinger" La Corte (Co-Founder, Provision), arguing that estimating is more than just counting symbols - and that without 100% accuracy, AI is still just a student driver.Moderated by the referee of reason, Patric "Praying For Exits" Hellermann, this debate moves through three grueling rounds: - Round 1: The Tech. Can LLMs actually count and measure complex drawings, or are they just guessing? - Round 2: The Accuracy Gap. Is 80% accuracy "good enough" to change the industry, or is "trust but verify" just a nice way of saying "do it yourself"? - Round 3: The Liability. In a world of design-bid-build, who takes the fall when the AI misses a scope gap? Tune in to uncover:• The "Waymo" Strategy: Why waiting for perfect AI is a mistake, and how to leverage the "self-driving" mindset to reduce takeoff times by 90% today.• The Hidden Liability Loophole: Why architects and engineers could solve the estimating crisis instantly by sharing models—and the legal reason they never will.• Symbols vs. Language: Learn the fundamental technical limitation preventing LLMs from reading 2D drawings like a human, and when we can expect "Visual Language Models" to catch up.• The Subcontractor's Dilemma: Why "Design Intent" matters more than counting linear feet, and why subs might actually be wasting time on granular takeoffs.• A "Bribe" for Better Data: One listener's hilarious (but practical) suggestion for how to finally get the Revit model from the design team.Who will deliver the knockout punch?

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWI open this episode by going straight at the new form of shrinkflation sweeping across the country. This is not the quiet trick from years ago. This is bold and shameless and companies do not care if you notice. They dress it up with cute labels and marketing fluff and expect you to treat it like an upgrade. I walk right into this new version and break down exactly how it is being sold to you.From there I move into Donald Trump's sudden offer of a two thousand dollar rebate and I call it exactly what it is. A BRIBE. It comes at a moment when people are stretched thin, frustrated, and fed up, and the timing alone turns it into something far bigger than a simple announcement.The episode then takes a hard turn into Trump's abrupt enthusiasm for releasing Epstein related files after years of silence. The shift is sharp. The tone is different. The sudden push raises real questions about what is happening behind the scenes and why now.When you line up these three stories, the mood across the country becomes impossible to miss. They hit at the same time. They strike the same nerves. They form a pattern that says far more than the headlines on their own.Each topic intensifies the next. The labels on your food. The money waved in front of a struggling public. The sudden shift toward revealing long buried information. Together they create a pressure that people can feel in every direction.You can sense the buildup as the episode moves forward. Every story shapes the next one. Every move changes the tone. Every announcement lands at a moment when people are already running out of patience with the entire system.By the time the pieces fall into place, the larger picture becomes clear. The timing matters. The atmosphere matters. The connection between all three stories is impossible to ignore once you hear how they stack together.This episode brings that full picture into focus. It hits the pressure points. It calls out the patterns. It breaks down the moment as it is unfolding right now with no softening and no filters.I would appreciate your feedback and opinions:WolfPackTalks@gmail.comAWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com

Donald Trump still insists that he's going to send every single American a check for $2,000 from the tariff money that he's bringing in, but when he was pressed about the math this week, he couldn't do basic addition and subtraction. The amount of the alleged rebate checks would far exceed the yearly revenue from the tariffs, meaning that the government would actually LOSE billions of dollars with this idea - and that might be why Scott Bessent immediately shut it down.With the federal government set to reopen, House Speaker Mike Johnson was left with no choice but to swear in recently-elected Democrat Adelita Grivalja. With that happening, the vote on the discharge petition to get the Epstein files released is now imminent. According to reports, there is a sense of panic about this among Republicans, including The White House, as they know that there is nothing they can do to stop it - though Trump has been desperately trying to distract people from it. While Americans are struggling to afford food, Donald Trump's administration has been secretly handing out major tax breaks totaling hundreds of billions of dollars to the wealthiest companies and industries in the country. These tax cuts go above and beyond what was included in the "One Big Beautiful Bill," and they are being directed by multi-millionaire Scott Bessent and his Treasury Department. Donald Trump's own Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, appears to be actively trying to sabotage the President from inside the administration. In the past few days, Bessent has publicly contradicted several major proclamations from Trump, saying that they either won't happen or the ideas that he has simply don't exist. But Bessent's comments aren't getting the same level of coverage as Trump's bold proclamations, so most people don't even know that his own administration is telling us that none of this is real. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

Bribe, Inc., a documentary film exposing a significant bribery scandal within the global oil industry, focusing on the Unaoil company and the Ahsani family. It highlights the collaborative efforts of an anonymous whistleblower, investigative reporter Nick McKenzie, prosecutor Tom Martin, and anti-corruption activist Alexandra Wrage to reveal the extent of the crimes. The film positions bribery not as a victimless offense but as a harmful practice with far-reaching consequences, emphasizing its connection to other illicit activities and its detrimental impact on democracy. This film is a real-life political thriller that exposes one of the largest corporate bribery scandals in modern history. Told through the lens of whistleblowers, investigators and journalists, the film uncovers a trillion-dollar corruption network stretching from oil fields in Iraq to boardrooms in Monaco—and all the way to the halls of power in Washington. Directed by Emmy Award-winner Peter Klein and co-produced by investigative journalist Calyn Shaw, Bribe, Inc. reveals how corporations, politicians and regulators conspire to protect a global system built on secrecy and profit. Described by The Guardian as "cloak-and-dagger," and praised by Variety for its "explosive" revelations, the film challenges audiences to follow the money—and confront the cost of complicity. As global enforcement of anti-bribery laws weakens and trust in institutions collapses, Bribe, Inc. emerges as a cinematic gut-punch—an urgent demand for accountability in a world where corruption is routine. It's an incredible story (and backstory).

Today's Headlines: Jimmy Kimmel is back in his late-night slot after Disney admitted last week's pull was over “ill-timed” jokes—but let's be real, the Hulu/Disney+/ESPN subscriber drop probably didn't help. Meanwhile, the Trump administration is floating Tylenol in pregnancy as a cause of autism (despite zero credible evidence) and RFK's FDA is eyeing vitamin B9 treatments. Trump's border czar Tom Homan was reportedly caught on tape taking a $50K bribe from undercover FBI agents—an investigation quietly shelved once Trump returned to office. At the FBI, a new plan could brand transgender people as “nihilistic violent extremists,” a threat category so broad it risks sweeping up activists and allies. The Department of Education teamed with Turning Point and Moms for Liberty for a “patriotic civics” initiative ahead of America's 250th. Abroad, the UK, Canada, and Australia recognized Palestine as a state ahead of the UN General Assembly, while Hamas may propose a ceasefire-for-hostages deal to Trump.
