The Door That Should Have Stayed Closed! Vance Boelter Minnesota Case Breakdown Description: At 3:35 AM on June 14, 2025, Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman made a fatal decision - she opened her door to a police officer. That officer was Vance Boelter in disguise, and that decision cost her and her husband their lives. This gripping security analysis with retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer reveals how simple precautions could have prevented this tragedy and saved multiple lives. This episode provides a minute-by-minute breakdown of the security failures that enabled Boelter's attacks. We examine how his fake police uniform and vehicle exploited trust, why none of the victims had adequate home security, and the specific moments where different choices would have changed everything. From the absence of doorbell cameras to the lack of verification protocols, every vulnerability is exposed. Coffindaffer shares critical insights on home security for public officials, including the "2 AM Rule," proper police verification procedures, and affordable security measures that could have stopped Boelter cold. We analyze the contrast between victims: why Senator John Hoffman survived despite 9 gunshots, how police presence saved Senator Ann Rest, and what made the Hortmans vulnerable. The conversation covers Boelter's months of surveillance (including notes like "Big house off golf course 2 ways in to watch"), his exploitation of public address listings, and why Minnesota's lack of Capitol security screening created sitting ducks. Most importantly, we provide actionable security advice that could save lives - because somewhere in America, the next Vance Boelter is taking notes. #HomeSecurity #VanceBoelterCase #SecurityFailures #MinnesotaTragedy #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBIExpert #TrueCrimePrevention #PoliticalSafety #FakePoliceOfficer #DoorSafety #SecurityAnalysis #PreventableDeaths #HiddenKillersPodcast #PublicOfficialSecurity #TrustButVerify Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Heroes within the Capitol and Metro Police who protected Congress and the seat of our democracy from being burnt to the ground on Jan6, are tired of watching Trump disrespect them, sully their honor, pardon Jan6 criminals, pay millions to pay for an insurrectionist who tried to overthrow our democracy, all while the Trump Congress refuses to put up simple brass plaque in the halls of Congress to honor those who sacrificed so much. Michael Popok reports on a brand new suit filed to force Congress to honor the Jan6 defenders. Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

What do Nazis, fascists, incels, skinheads, misogynists, insurrectionists and Proud Boys all have in common? Many of them confide in reporter Elle Reeve.It was around 2015 and Reeve was reporting for Vice News about the rise of the “alt right,” a term coined by its leader, Richard Spencer. She spent time on internet message boards like 4chan and 8chan where far right activists communicated, trolled liberals, and began to coalesce as a movement. These were often ordinary people who increasingly embraced conspiracy theories and violence.This was during the presidency of Barack Obama, when many people were imagining that the U.S. was in the glow of a “post-racial” era. Reeve knew better. “Racism wasn't dying off with an older generation,” she told the Vermont Conversation. “There was a strong beating heart right there on the internet.”In 2017, Reeve was there when the alt right burst out of obscure Internet chat rooms and into public consciousness in a violent attack in Charlottesville, Virginia. Her documentary account, “Charlottesville: Race and Terror,” earned her and Vice News Tonight a Peabody Award, four Emmys and a George Polk Award.In 2019, Reeve became a correspondent for CNN, where she works today. She was at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 reporting on the attack on Congress by Trump supporters, many of whom she knew well.Why do they talk to her? “They want to tell their story, they want to confess, they want to unburden themselves,” she said.Reeve has a new book, “Black Pill: How I Witnessed the Darkest Corners of the Internet Come to Life, Poison Society, and Capture American Politics.” The title refers to how far right activists speak of taking the “black pill” of nihilism to justify their cruelty and violence. “It's this dark nihilism that the world is doomed. There's nothing you can do to change it, and you at best, can hope for it to collapse.”Reeve traces how far-right rhetoric has moved from the fringes to the mainstream, with Donald Trump and J.D. Vance channeling extremist ideas and language.Vance has denounced the “woke ideology” of “white women who are miserable about their own lives, enforcing codes about racial justice, gay rights on other people to make other people miserable, to account for how miserable they are in their own lives,” Reeve explained.Vance's use of the term “childless cat ladies” is another far right meme. “I've read that on 4chan six or seven years ago,” said Reeve. “It has trickled upward.”Another far right notion that is now embraced by mainstream Republicans is that diversity is bad. “They think that racial and ethnic and gender diversity makes us weaker. It makes us fools. This is just something that they ridiculed all the time.”Reeve explained the far right context of Trump's attacks on people of color. “If a white person commits a crime in their world, it's because they're a bad guy. But if a Black person commits a crime in their world, it's because they're Black.”Reeve warned that many people “are vulnerable to those ideas. I just interviewed a ton of people who were so nice to me at a Trump boat parade. They were so nice to me, and then they started talking to me about how it's not right to eat people's cats, and these people do animal sacrifice, and they're dirty and they bring disease.”“It's not all crazy people who believe this stuff. It's regular people and your neighbors,” said Reeve. “You have an obligation to push back against that, whether or not they'll listen to you.”Reeve said about the future, “There has been an escalating radicalization among the Republican elite and a softening among the voters… People speak freely about civil war. That is dangerous.”“I don't like it but I don't know where that balance ends up after the election. You can't do something like Jan. 6 without a feeling that there's an army behind you of supporters who will back you up.”

In this week's Capitol Chats episode, Rep. Christian Phelps, D-Eau Claire, says the 60% special education reimbursement Gov. Tony Evers is proposing should be a minimum, instead of the current 30% rate.

Greg Rosen, now an attorney at Rogers Joseph O'Donnell, spoke with James Pearce, Lawfare Legal Fellow, about his time prosecuting federal crimes in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia. He focused mostly on the investigation and prosecution that followed the attack of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. He discussed how the U.S. Attorney's Office carried out the largest investigation in the history of the country, how it handled the multiple investigative and logistical challenges the prosecutions posed, and how to think about the Supreme Court's decision holding that the congressional obstruction count charged in many Jan. 6 cases was misapplied. Rosen also weighed in on the D.C. U.S. Attorney's under the second Trump administration. To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Trump made an early and hasty exit from the G7 Summit in Canada as he warned anyone in Tehran, Iran to get out. The warning echoed similar calls from Israeli leaders to evacuate Tehran, possibly signaling that a large attack is imminent. Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist and author David Cay Johnston joins us to talk about world events.Pulizer Prize winning historian and author Steven Hahn joins to discuss his book “Illiberal America.”Quoting from the book description on Amazon, “If your reaction to the January 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol was to think, 'That's not us,' think again.” In Illiberal America, Steven Hahn “uncovers a powerful illiberalism as deep-seated in the American past as the founding ideals.” This should be a fascinating conversation. The Mark Thompson Show 6/17/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

Investigators are still trying to figure out what motivated a man to allegedly target Democratic elected officials in a series of shootings early Saturday morning. Meanwhile, candlelight vigil to honor top state House DFLer Melissa Hortman is planned for Wednesday night on the steps of the state Capitol.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Choosing an attitude of victimhood, especially seeing everything through the lens of race, leaves a person as, or more, poisoned than one who is a nasty racist bigot. A Bexar County-Court-At-Law judge is claiming that the only reason another Democrat is planning to run against her in next year's Democratic Primary, is due to her being black. It's as nasty to impute racism into someone else with no evidence for such as it is to be racist.And then there is this other bit showing today's Texas Democratic Party is a friend and promoter of perversion and communism: Texas Democrats Elect Socialist, “Pan-sexual” Vice-Chairman for Finance.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Threats at the Texas Capitol on Saturday are said, by Governor Abbott, to have come from an armed man who was on Capitol grounds. KXAN reports on who sources say is the now arrested man.Lubbock County budget talks show the same old thing: County Judge Curtis Parrish wants more raises for himself and other officials than do commissioners and, Sheriff Rowe wants tons more money and personnel. However, something missed is this: Why doesn't UMC pick up the tab for the deputies? It has massive cash reserves and huge earnings. (Congrats to the AJ for actually having a meaningful news story – it happens rarely these days.)Election integrity stories that blend together: Key Election Security Efforts Met Resistance in the Texas House Attorney General Ken Paxton Opens Investigations into 33 Noncitizens for Illegally Voting in the 2024 Election MyPillow's Mike Lindell found liable for defamation, ordered to pay $2.3 million FBI gives Congress intel on alleged Chinese plot to create fake mail-in ballots in 2020 – “…in fact, another agency, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, had intercepted nearly 20,000 fake licenses around the time the intelligence came in a possible corroboration of the report, officials said.” Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

“Democrats in disarray” is more than just a trope — after last year's disastrous elections, the Dems are openly fretting about how to pull the party out of its crisis. Kara speaks to a panel of millennial leaders about how to rejuvenate the party; what role the generational divide plays in policy and agenda setting; and what Democrats need to do to win back younger voters (and older ones, too). Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) was first elected to Congress in 2022. He is the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and he's currently part of the “Fighting Oligarchy Tour” with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Amanda Litman is a co-founder of Run for Something, an organization that helps young, diverse progressives run for down-ballot races. Since its founding in 2017, Run for Something has helped elect nearly 1,500 candidates in 49 states and the District of Columbia – including more than 250 candidates in 2024, 18 of whom flipped their seats from red to blue. Litman's new book, “When We're in Charge: The Next Generation's Guide to Leadership” was just published. Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) was elected to the House last year, and she is the first openly transgender elected member of Congress. She is a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, a former Delaware State Senator, and a Run For Something alum. Her campaign and first few months in office (which included being banned from using the women's bathroom in the Capitol) is the subject of a new documentary “State of Firsts,” which just played at the Tribeca Film Festival and DC/DOX.

Oregon lawmakers have until June 29 to finish legislative business and adjourn the 2025 regular session. Although a number of bills remain in play, even at this late date, the only thing lawmakers are constitutionally obligated to do before they leave the Capitol is pass a biennial budget for 2025-2027. During the last five months, Democrats and Republicans have taken up issues related to housing, taxes, transportation and much more. House Minority Leader Christine Drazan, R-Canby, shared her perspective on the session on Friday’s “Think Out Loud.” And joining us today to talk about the progress toward sine die is Senate Majority Leader, Kayse Jama, D-Portland.

Gov. Tim Walz called Rep. Melissa Hortman, who was fatally shot Saturday, his “closest ally” and praised her bipartisanship as a model for a divided country. Walz told MPR News he has asked his staff to prepare for the possibility of Hortman and her husband to lie in state at the Capitol.

Guest host Jessica McBride discusses Vance Boelter and the shootings in Minnesota - and should the Capitol have metal detectors? Also restrictions on cigar bars, and Aaron Rodgers' marriage (or IS it?)

On Monday at the Capitol, with the Assembly set to end the legislation session for the year on Tuesday, we talk about the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act (PRRIA) and other environmental issues with Rob Hayes of Environmental Advocates, Sally Lauletta, Ella McGrail of Save the Sound, and Blair Horner of NYPIRG. Beyond Plastics brought the Plastic Tsunami – an exhibit of one family's six months of waste – as part of the last-minute push with legislators. By Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.

Send us a textWhile we were on hiatus from producing episodes we had a number of passings that we want to comment on , both nationally, and locally here in the Myrtle Beach area of note. Over the next few days we will have two special editions mixed in with our regular series in order to honor these folks. In this episode we will look back at two people who were very close to me over the past two decades. Former Myrtle Beach City Clerk, Joan Grove , and former Surfside Beach Mayor Bob Childs. Two people who left an indelible mark on our small corner of the world here in South Carolina, where we produce these shows. Joan Grove was the City Clerk for two decades in Myrtle Beach, working with three different City Managers and four Mayors. She was the voice of the City Council every two weeks for our televised meetings as she read all the ordinances into the public record. More than that, Mrs. Grove was beloved by the city employees, elected officials, and residents alike. She took me under her wing when I first arrived as 30 year old councilman with no real travel experience to speak of and she made sure I got where I needed to be. We remained friends long after both of our time with the city was over. We will look back at her in this episode. Bob Childs, served in the United States Capitol long before he moved to Surfside Beach and ran for Council. He had stories to tell about every major figure of the last half of the 20th Century because he had served right beside them as they wandered around the Capitol. He moved to Surfside and became its Mayor, getting its finances in order, and accomplishing great things during his tenure. He was admired by all who knew him and we will be looking back at him in this episode as well. Finally, we will end this show as one of the most fun trivia questions of the age finally comes to a close. John Tyler, the 10th President of the United States who was born in 1790, and he had fifteen children. He had one of them when he was age 63. That son, Lyon Tyler, had a son at the age of 75. Harrison Tyler , who passed away  in June, was born in 1928, and he lived for 97 years. Which became one of the trivia worlds most fun questions. Who was the oldest living grandson of a President? The Tyler  family life spans over three generations that covers 235 years from 1790 to 2025. We will look back at the Tyler family tree as we bid farewell to a very nice man, Harrison Tyler, who I met one day while touring his home in Charles City County, Virginia.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Reagan and Bryan breakdown the happenings in the Capitol this past week including touching on the national President Trump news. In our effort to figure out how to land the plane, we learn it is the Unions in Oregon in control of the plane in Salem. '“No Kings” discussion, Trump says he is not. Unions are in control of the session, hence passing of SB 916TLT (Transient Lodging Tax) discussion happening in Salem. Are we on a cusp of seeing a major change in the Tourism Budgets across the state? Do we have to many cities in Oregon?Transportation Funding continues to go down into a black hole of nothing, especially when now they might refer to voters. Wildfire funding hinges on the Zin? Poor “zinners” are in the crosshairs of Democrats looking for new taxes. This is a public episode.

In this episode, we dive deep into the evolving landscape of predator and wildlife management across the United States. From the reinstatement of black bear hunting in Louisiana to ongoing debates in Florida and Washington, we explore how science, legislation, and public perception shape the future of hunting, conservation, and land use. Join Fred and the crew as they examine the growing tensions between wildlife and human development, the role of hounds and trapping in sustainable management, and why the hunting community must better communicate its conservation value. We also discuss the challenges of managing emerging predators like jaguars and the controversial reintroduction of species into ecosystems. Key Takeaways: Bear Hunting Regulations Vary Widely by State: Oregon and Idaho offer spring bear seasons; Washington does not. Louisiana recently reinstated its black bear hunting season after decades, and Florida is considering reopening its black bear season. Science-Based Wildlife Management Is Essential: Predator-prey dynamics are complex and must be studied to avoid unintended consequences. Reintroduction of species, such as wolves and mountain lions, can disrupt existing ecosystems. Trapping and Hound Hunting Remain Valuable Tools: Used for selective predator control and critical data collection. Legislative efforts continue to impact their use across states. Legislation and Public Perception Drive Wildlife Policy: Conservation decisions are often shaped more by emotion than by science. The hunting community must better advocate for its role in sustainable wildlife management.

Members of Congress put aside the politics and pick up the bats with the annual Congressional Baseball Game played just blocks away from the Capitol at Nationals Park. They began playing the Congressional game in 1909, in 1956 they stopped after a very hard collision at home plate, and resumed in the game in 1962. Security has been made tight over concerns of protesters over ICE raids or pro-Palestine demonstrators. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans remain very divided over cutting costs in the House passed spending bill. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Chad Pergram, Senior Congressional correspondent for FOX News and the play-by-play caller for this year's Congressional Baseball Game, who shares the latest on the path of the 'Big, Beautiful Bill' and how bipartisanship on display raises millions for charity.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats and the media are at it again, supporting violent riots, arson, and attacks on law enforcement in California, while labeling President Trump as authoritarian. A coalition of illegal aliens, Islamists, and Marxists are burning American flags, engaging in violence, and demanding to stay in America while causing this chaos.  Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines to address these riots is appropriate and lawful – Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, and George H. Bush all used military forces in crises. These are not mostly peaceful protests, it's totally violent. These attacks were on federal law enforcement officers. Federal prosecution for assaults on federal officers is supported by 18 USC Section 111. Democrats will never clean up this mess because they created it - they want illegal aliens and Marxists here. That creates chaos and violence and destroys our governing system so they can fundamentally transform it. Also, Sen Tom Cotton calls in and defends Trump's use of federal authority to address the L.A. riots. Trump is acting within his legal rights to federalize the National Guard when local authorities, such as Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass, fail to control violence involving arson, looting, and attacks by illegal aliens.  Cotton criticizes Democrats and the media for portraying Trump's actions as authoritarian while ignoring the lawlessness and supporting the rioters' political causes.  He also addressed Iran's rejection of a nuclear proposal from Trump. The offer was generous, allowing Iran access to low-enriched uranium for civilian nuclear power, similar to what other countries receive. However, Iran's refusal suggests their true intent is to develop nuclear weapons, as enriching uranium to any level could lead to weapons-grade material. Later, a mural at Falafel Inc. in Fairfax County, Virginia is allegedly glorifying violent extremism and promoting anti-American symbolism.  The artwork in the restaurant depicts a man in a keffiyeh, rowing toward the U.S. Capitol with a two-finger “victory” salute and a Palestinian flag amid rubble.
