In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, city leaders have identified the woman killed during an ICE operation in Minneapolis Wednesday as 37 year-old Renee Nicole Good and federal and local officials offered sharply different accounts of the shooting. The fatal shooting occurred during an ICE enforcement operation in south Minneapolis, according to the Department of Homeland Security, which said agents were attempting to make arrests when Good tried to use her vehicle as a weapon against officers, prompting a federal agent to fire in self-defense. Good was pronounced dead after being struck by gunfire. The agent involved has not been publicly identified, and the incident remains under investigation. As expected liberal politicians are in an uproar demonizing ICE agents and the Trump administration over the incident. Also audio from Jonathan Turley on using the vehicle as a weapon and the lack of due process for the investigation, another situation that exposes the Democrat's lack of critical thinking, billionaires make strategic moves out of California ahead of proposed wealth tax and cell phone cameras and social media platforms offering citizen journalists the opportunity to broadcast breaking news.

In January 2000, a single mother named Jodi Foster moved with her young daughter into an apartment on Parmac Road in Chico, California—unaware that the unit had a dark and unfinished past. As unexplained disturbances escalated into terrifying dreams and a child's repeated visions of a woman called “Myliz,” Jodi would eventually uncover a chilling connection to the 1976 disappearance of Marie Elizabeth Spannhake. Decades earlier, Spannhake vanished after walking home from a flea market. Could the haunting of Apartment 14 be tied to a crime never solved—and a voice that refused to be silenced? This episode explores the intersection of memory, place, and justice in one of California's cold cases.

   We are going to follow the facts about the former Kansas City resident that decided to leave her children behind Wednesday in Minneapolis, and at the very least, risk being arrested by ICE.  By all accounts, Renee Good was committing multiple crimes to defend Somali criminals when she hit the gas pedal with an agent right in front of her.  Bad decisions lead to bad outcomes.    Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is in hot water again as his former girlfriend posts photos a writes an essay about years of abuse she took from him.  Is this the end for Rice in KC?    Salvador Perez is the captain of Team Venezuela in the upcoming World Baseball Classic and was in his home country when Maduro was extracted.  Why haven't we heard from Salvy on this?    The Missouri Tigers have turned their season around starting 2-0 in SEC hoops.  The Tigers got their first win ever at Kentucky and they did it by closing strong and showing something we weren't sure they had.    NFL tv ratings smash records as the Chiefs lead CBS to being the top rated network.  Clay County officials are no longer talking with the Royals and billionaires are fleeing California for good.

Premedical student Samah Khan discusses her article "The crisis of physician shortages globally." Samah draws a powerful parallel between the medical exodus in Pakistan and the doctor deserts of California's Central Valley, revealing how structural neglect drives providers away from the communities that need them most.

Hear how owners already use AI as a de facto CFO, why drafting narratives—not matching bank feeds—is the real win, what the ‘AI premium' means in a billable-hour world, and the two numbers firm owners should track in 2026: monthly recurring revenue and bottom-line profit.SponsorsUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayTaxBandits - http://accountingpodcast.promo/taxbanditsChapters(01:35) - News Highlights and Sponsor Acknowledgements (03:56) - AI in Small Business Accounting (07:04) - AI's Impact on Accounting Tasks (10:01) - Thought Leader Survey on AI in Accounting (19:56) - AI Premium and Job Automation (25:27) - Survey Answers from Accounting Thought Leaders (25:54) - AI's Role in Strategy and Decision Making (28:24) - Impact of AI on Competitive Landscape (30:50) - AI's Effect on Costs in Accounting Firms (31:54) - AI Replacing Staff Accountants (33:24) - Personal Job Security and AI (41:05) - AI Influencers and Future Experiments (49:24) - Conclusion and CPE Information  Show NotesThese Small-Business Owners Are Putting AI to Good Use https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/small-business-ai-chatgpt-prompts-0c9a95c4 AI Thought Leaders Survey 2026: Process Predictions https://www.accountingtoday.com/list/ai-thought-leaders-survey-2026-process-predictions Tech Spending Outpacing People Spending as Firms Adopt AI https://www.accountingtoday.com/list/tech-spending-outpacing-people-spending-as-firms-adopt-ai How Much is the 'AI Premium?' https://www.accountingtoday.com/list/how-much-is-the-ai-premium AI Can't Replace Accountants.

Healthy forests help combat climate change, provide humans with drinking water and even improve mental and physical health. But it's hard to imagine an entire forest in the middle of a big city. That's where micro-forests come into play — public forests on a smaller scale, filled with native plants. They exist around the world, and producer Rachel Carlson went to visit the largest micro-forest in California. She joins host Emily Kwong to chat about what she saw. Interested in more of the science behind urban nature?

Watch 'The Venezuela Operation' here: https://ept.ms/49I2LA3The White House is criticizing Gov. Tim Walz amid the Minnesota fraud scandal. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News, “[President Donald Trump] believes that Governor Walz is criminally liable, and I think the Department of Justice is going to find out.”The former running mate for Kamala Harris during the 2024 presidential election recently announced that he would not run for a third term as governor, and he is now under pressure over the widespread fraud being exposed in the state.In other news, the fraud being uncovered in Minnesota might not be limited to just that state. Similar forms of welfare fraud are now being found across the country, and President Donald Trump recently alleged that the situation in California might be even worse.We'll discuss these topics and others, in this episode of Crossroads.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

 ICE agents surge across Minnesota, arresting 1,000 illegal aliens and more than 150 criminals as democrats sharpen their claws on Elon Musk, Nick Shirley and President Trump for exposing and then amplifying news of the state's widespread Somali fraud. California's education fraud may break taxpayers' bank as a suspected $250 BILLION of scams and schemes may have been perpetrated across the state. Harry Enten debunks pollsters who say Trump has fallen out of favor with his conservative base.

00:54 Turning an undersea cable into a seismic detectorResearchers have shown that they can piggyback a signal on a 4,400-kilometer-long telecom cable that runs from California to Hawaii, allowing it to act like 44,000 separate seismic-activity detectors. Their method takes advantage of impurities found in glass fibre-optic cables, which reflect light differently when they are stretched and distorted by the pressure of seismic waves.Science: Seafloor telecom cable transformed into giant earthquake detector04:17 The origin of an ancient boatChemical analysis of the caulking found on the wood an ancient boat has helped researchers identify the origins of the vessel, that sank off the coast of Denmark 2,400 years ago. The team's analysis suggests it voyaged from much farther away that had been thought — perhaps coming from the Baltic Sea region. The team also found a fingerprint left in the caulk, although who it belonged to is unknown.LiveScience: Fingerprint of ancient seaborne raider found on Scandinavia's oldest plank boat08:29 How heating up helps some plants pollinateSome plants called cycads (Zamia spp.) heat up to attract the beetles that pollinate them. These beetles have heat-seeking sensors in their antennae, which they use locate the plants. Male cycads warm up around 3 hours before females, meaning that beetles head to them before first carrying pollen over to the females.Science: Heat-seeking beetles drawn to plants that glow in infrared13:08 The exoplanet shaped like a lemonThe discovery of exoplanet PSR J2322-2650b reveals how unusual other worlds can be. This exoplanet takes just 7.8 hours to orbit an ultra-dense pulsar whose intense gravity pulls PSR J2322-2650b into a lemon shape.New Scientist: Strange lemon-shaped exoplanet defies the rules of planet formationSubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

The film covers the creation of Disneyland with rare, first-hand archival footage leading up to the opening in July, 1955. Leslie Iwerks and her team searched through over 100 hours of raw material from Disneyland in its earliest days. - https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/disneyland-handcrafted-release-date-and-more-details/ The first part of the Disneyland Forward project has a permit, with work beginning soon. The permit is for a 3.2 million square foot, 8-level open parking structure with 302 EV charging spots. This is the first part that needs to be completed before the additional capacity can be built and opened with the rest of the project. The new structure should hold 6,000 vehicles and feature a rideshare area, and transit hub. Construction is predicted to begin after runDisney at the end of January, since the space is currently used to facilitate the event. - https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disneyland-files-permit-for-eastern-parking-structure/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ioc6c8v6HIY At the milk stand in Galaxy's Edge, we have had blue milk, green milk, and now a new color - pink milk!

Today on Stinchfield, a congressional hearing is finally pulling the curtain back on the massive Minnesota Somali fraud scandal. Tens of millions of taxpayer dollars meant for hungry kids and struggling families allegedly siphoned off, while Democrats looked the other way. We break down what lawmakers are uncovering, who knew what, and why accountability has been delayed for years. Then, a shocking moment from the Somali community itself. One Somali born immigrant in Minnisota issues a blunt warning that America will soon become a Muslim nation. We’ll play the clip, examine what was said, and ask why concerns like this are dismissed as conspiracy theories until they are spoken out loud on the record. And as Washington turns its attention to Minnesota, President Trump widens the investigative spotlight, putting Gavin Newsom and California squarely in the crosshairs. From fraud to failed governance, the pattern is becoming impossible to ignore. This is about corruption, ideology, and a ruling class that believes the rules do not apply to them. https://TheMaverickSystem.comhttps://GrantLovesGold.comhttps://www.EnergizedHealth.com/Granthttps://www.PatriotMobile.com/Granthttps://Twc.Health/Grant with code “Grant” for 10% offhttps://vraletter.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tuesday marks a turning point in the Nick Reiner case. The 32-year-old son of legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner will stand before a judge and, for the first time, enter a plea on two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances.Everyone watching knows what's coming. Defense attorney Alan Jackson has spent three weeks telegraphing it. "Very complex and serious issues." A sealed mental health order. A client who appeared in court in a suicide smock after failing to receive medical clearance the day before.Not guilty by reason of insanity.But what does that defense actually require in California? It's not enough to be mentally ill. It's not enough to have schizophrenia, which sources confirm Nick was diagnosed with years ago. Under the M'Naghten standard, the defense must prove he either didn't understand the nature of stabbing his parents to death, or didn't know it was wrong.That's a high bar. And prosecutors have ammunition. Nick's own words — recorded on podcasts — show a man who knew how to manipulate systems and people. Seventeen rehab programs gamed. Parents convinced to ignore experts. A calculated campaign to remain in their lives despite every warning.Can you claim insanity for a single night while demonstrating strategic thinking for seventeen years?Bob Motta joins True Crime Today to break down the legal mechanics of what's coming. The two-phase trial process. How psychiatric testimony works. What happens if the defense actually wins — and whether Nick Reiner could ever walk free.The arraignment is just the beginning.

Two major cases are moving through the system right now, and both hinge on questions that haven't been publicly answered.Sarah Grace Patrick's murder trial begins today. She's seventeen, accused of shooting her mother Kristin and stepfather James Brock while they slept in their Carroll County, Georgia home. The five-year-old sister found them. Sarah dialed 911 and then spent five months posting emotional videos, contacting true crime podcasters, and grieving publicly in ways that made investigators suspicious. They arrested her in July, claiming mountains of evidence. But no murder weapon has been confirmed. No motive has been disclosed. Her defense says they're still waiting on discovery. Her grandfather—who buried his own daughter—says the case against Sarah doesn't hold up. The prosecution's key witness? The little sister, now six years old.In California, the D4VD grand jury continues building toward a potential indictment. Celeste Rivas Hernandez's body was found in the trunk of his Tesla after decomposing for over a month. The cause of death remains deferred. But prosecutor Beth Silverman isn't waiting for the medical examiner to make this easy. She's grinding through witnesses—including D4VD's manager, who reportedly testified for days and was overheard saying his priority after learning about the body was keeping the tour running. A female witness failed to show and now faces a body attachment. D4VD has allegedly transferred properties, broken his lease, and gone completely silent.FBI veteran Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down both cases with the precision of someone who's built these investigations from the ground up.#TrueCrimeToday #SarahGracePatrickTrial #D4VDGrandJury #CelesteRivas #FBIAnalysis #MurderTrial #BreakingCrime #JenniferCoffindaffer #GeorgiaMurder #LosAngelesCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This episode kicks off with the federal government freezing $10 billion in social service funds—including child care and TANF grants—to five Democratic-led states (California, New York, Illinois, Minnesota, and Colorado) over alleged misuse and fraud. Officials cite systemic misuse and say the freeze ensures proper spending, while critics call it political retribution and warn it risks undermining supports for low-income families in these states. Next, Cardi B fires back at blogger Tasha K during an online showdown tied to new allegations involving her boyfriend, NFL star Stefon Diggs. Tasha K evoked witness tampering, and Cardi strongly denied the claim, threatening legal action over continued harassment—reminding fans that Tasha still owes her a six-figure defamation payout. In a lighter segment, Chloe Bailey clapped back on Insta Live when a troll criticized her weight—calling it “getting big.” She snapped, “Even if I was… what about it?” before telling them to “send a pic” and reminding fans that “stress got my waist snatched”—firmly reclaiming control over her body image. Finally, the White House has reaffirmed interest in Greenland, calling its control a national security priority. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt noted the U.S. is considering a “range of options” including military force—a statement that triggered bipartisan and international backlash, with many allies denouncing any threat to Denmark’s sovereignty.

From a lumpy 2025 market to building pent-up demand, M&A attorneys Corey Kupfer and Brian Meegan share their frontline perspective on deal trends and what business owners need to know heading into 2026. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with his partner Brian Meegan of Kupfer. to kick off the new year with a candid conversation about the deal market. Together, they've handled dozens of deals totaling hundreds of millions of dollars in purchase price and enterprise value across wealth management, tech, and trade industries nationwide. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover why the 2025 M&A market has been "lumpy" with strong activity in certain sectors while others slowed, and how markets normalize uncertainty when clarity takes too long. Corey and Brian discuss tax legislation certainty versus tariff uncertainty pending Supreme Court review, why pent-up demand builds pressure that eventually releases, and how massive PE dry powder creates deployment urgency. You'll learn why equitizing Generation 2 leadership years before an exit improves options and valuation, how trade industries remain attractive due to AI resistance, and what regional differences mean for deal opportunities. DEAL MARKET REALITY: The end of 2024 was intense, and momentum carried into 2025. Yet conversations with colleagues revealed uneven activity nationwide. Wealth management stayed robust while other sectors slowed. Weaker earnings combined with elevated prices created buyer-seller disconnects. CERTAINTY AND UNCERTAINTY: Markets crave predictability. Recent tax legislation provided clarity around R&D credits and SALT deductions. Tariff policy remains uncertain with potential Supreme Court review, creating productivity costs as companies refigure supply chains. PENT-UP DEMAND: When natural deal flow gets suppressed, it builds pressure rather than disappearing. PE firms sit on enormous capital with fund timeline pressures. Money isn't the constraint. Finding opportunities and having clarity to proceed are the real bottlenecks. THE GEN 2 IMPERATIVE: Equitizing key executives years before a potential exit creates tax-efficient structures, makes companies more attractive to buyers, and gives acquirers confidence. Waiting until deal time limits options and hurts valuation. REGIONAL DIFFERENCES: Brian's Denver practice serves different markets than Corey's coastal work. Colorado features strong tech sectors and alternative energy with California migration. Heavy manufacturing concentrates in Arizona and Nevada. TRADE CONSOLIDATION: Professionalization of trades including plumbing, electrical, and HVAC continues after more than a decade. These industries resist AI disruption, making them attractive for stable revenue and consistent fundamentals. Perfect for business owners considering exits, entrepreneurs evaluating opportunities, and anyone wanting frontline perspective on current M&A conditions.

Stacey has a couple guests in the shop for this episode. First up are L.J. and MUNCH from LIFT KING. They discuss how they design & develop all their products and what they love about the automotive lifestyle, from their favorite rides to MUNCH's passion for painting. After that, Al Allen from CALIFORNIA DATSUN is in to talk about all things Z-CAR and especially Stacey's newest project, an original 1970 240Z that he recently found in Georgia.

Alan Jackson doesn't take cases he can't spin. The high-powered defense attorney — fresh off Karen Read's acquittal — is now representing Nick Reiner, charged with murdering his parents Rob and Michele Reiner in their Brentwood home. And he's already laying the groundwork for what's coming."Very complex and serious issues." "Restraint and dignity." That's defense attorney code for: we're going with insanity.Nick was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago. His medication was reportedly adjusted weeks before the killings. A sealed court order regarding his mental health has already been signed. He appeared at his first hearing in a suicide prevention smock, wasn't medically cleared the day before, and said only two words: "Yes, your honor."The optics are being set. But can it actually work?California's M'Naghten standard is brutal for defendants. You have to prove you didn't understand what you were doing or didn't know it was wrong. Not that you were mentally ill. Not that you were hearing voices. The bar is specific and high.Bob Motta joins us to explain how insanity defenses actually play out in court. What evidence moves juries? How do prosecutors counter claims of psychosis? And here's the question no one wants to ask: if Nick spent seventeen years manipulating his parents, gaming rehab programs, and convincing them to ignore professional warnings — can he really claim he didn't understand what he was doing when he allegedly killed them?Mental illness is real. But so is accountability.

The night before he died, Rob Reiner reportedly told friends at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party: "I'm petrified of Nick. I think my own son can hurt me."He wasn't guessing. He was describing something he'd been living with for years.An LAPD insider said police had responded to the Reiner home "quite a few" times over the years for incidents involving Nick. A neighbor told the New York Post this wasn't the first time Nick had been violent. Professionals had reportedly warned the family. Nick himself admitted on podcasts to manipulating his parents, gaming rehab programs, and convincing them to trust him over the experts.Everyone saw the warning signs. No one could stop what was coming.California's mental health laws are designed to protect individual liberty — but they leave families like the Reiners with almost no options. You can't force an adult into treatment unless they're about to hurt someone right now. A 5150 hold gives you 72 hours before they walk out. Conservatorship takes years to obtain and has to be renewed annually.Rob and Michele did everything they could. Millions on treatment. Seventeen rehab programs. Keeping Nick close because the alternative was watching him die on the streets. And in the end, their son allegedly murdered them anyway.Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers to talk about what law enforcement sees in cases like this — the repeated calls, the escalating incidents, the families begging for help. When officers respond to a home over and over, what can they actually do? And why does the system keep failing the people it's supposed to protect?This is the conversation about everything that happened before the crime.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #HiddenKillers #WarningSigns #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #LPSAct #California #FamilyTragedyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
